DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY 

Federal Energy Regulatory 

Commission 

[Docket No. CP22–489–001] 

Northern Natural Gas Company; Notice 

of Request for Extension of Time 

Take notice that on September 11, 

2023, Northern Natural Gas Company 

(Northern) requested that the Federal 

Energy Regulatory Commission 

(Commission) grant an extension of time 

(2023 Extension of Time Request), until 

October 13, 2023, to install and operate 

an approximately 1.57-mile expansion 

of its 36-inch-diameter MNM80105 

Ventura Interconnect to Farmington ELine in Freeborn and Steele counties, 

Minnesota, in the Prior Notice Request 

for Authorization Under Blanket 

Certificate (Prior Notice) under Docket 

No. CP22–489–000. On July 25, 2022, 

the Commission issued a Notice of 

Request Under Blanket Authorization, 

which established a 60-day comment 

period, ending on September 23, 2022, 

to file protests. No protests were filed 

during the comment period, and 

accordingly the project was authorized 

on September 24, 2022 and by Rule 

should have been completed within one 

year. 

In its 2023 Extension of Time Request, 

Northern states that it delayed 

construction until May 22, 2023, to 

avoid construction during the winter 

and spring load restrictions on State and 

local roads. Northern expected to 

complete the Project within the one-year 

time frame. However, during 

construction, Northern’s contractor 

experienced multiple delays with the 

horizontal directional drilling (HDD) 

activities due to drill rig availability and 

an increased duration for the pilot and 

reaming activities. Additionally, 

construction for the associated tie-in 

facilities was longer than expected due 

to a change in tie-in plans at the Albert 

Lea compressor station as described in 

weekly report 16. The proposed tie-in 

location on the D-line was not suitable 

for in-service welding, resulting in 

additional excavation, backfill, 

fabrication and pressure testing. 

Northern currently estimates completing 

commissioning and testing of the new 

line the week of October 2, 2023. 

This notice establishes a 15-calendar 

day intervention and comment period 

deadline. Any person wishing to 

comment on Northern’s request for an 

extension of time may do so. No reply 

comments or answers will be 

considered. If you wish to obtain legal 

status by becoming a party to the 

proceedings for this request, you 

should, on or before the comment date 

stated below, file a motion to intervene 

in accordance with the requirements of 

the Commission’s Rules of Practice and 

Procedure (18 CFR 385.214 or 385.211) 

and the Regulations under the Natural 

Gas Act (18 CFR 157.10). 

As a matter of practice, the 

Commission itself generally acts on 

requests for extensions of time to 

complete construction for Natural Gas 

Act facilities when such requests are 

contested before order issuance. For 

those extension requests that are 

contested,1 the Commission will aim to 

issue an order acting on the request 

within 45 days.2 The Commission will

4Similarly, the Commission will not re-litigate 

the issuance of an NGA section 3 authorization, 

including whether a proposed project is not 

inconsistent with the public interest and whether 

the Commission’s environmental analysis for the 

permit order complied with NEPA.

address all arguments relating to 

whether the applicant has demonstrated 

there is good cause to grant the 

extension.3 The Commission will not 

consider arguments that re-litigate the 

issuance of the certificate order, 

including whether the Commission 

properly found the project to be in the 

public convenience and necessity and 

whether the Commission’s 

environmental analysis for the 

certificate complied with the National 

Environmental Policy Act.4 At the time 

a pipeline requests an extension of time, 

orders on certificates of public 

convenience and necessity are final and 

the Commission will not re-litigate their 

issuance.5 The OEP Director, or his or 

her designee, will act on all of those 

extension requests that are uncontested.

of this document in the Federal 

Register, The Commission provides all

electronic filings of comments, protests 

and interventions in lieu of paper using 

the ‘‘eFiling’’ link at http://

electronically should submit an original
