157.205, 157.206. 157.208(b) and 

157.216(b) of the Commission’s 

regulations and its blanket certificate 

authority granted in Docket No. CP82– 

402–000 for Commission authorization 

of the Project.1 On September 27, 2022, 

BNSF Railway Company (BNSF) filed a 

protest seeking additional information 

on the Project. Natural resolved the 

protest with BNSF on October 17, 2022, 

and the Project was deemed approved as 

of such date. Based on the Project 

approval date of October 17, 2022, 

Natural is required to complete Projectrelated construction by October 17, 

2023. Natural states that its request for 

an extension of time is due to 

construction delays, and adverse 

weather conditions the Project has 

experienced, all as more fully discussed 

in its request for extension of time letter. 

As of September 29, 2023, Natural’s 

Project construction is approximately 65 

percent complete. However, given the 

remaining amount of work and potential 

for weather or other unforeseen delays, 

Natural does not believe it will be able 

to complete Project construction 

activities by October 17, 2023. As such, 

Natural is respectfully seeking a limited 

extension of time in which to complete 

Project construction activities. While 

Natural anticipates achieving 

mechanical completion of the Project by 

November 1, 2023, Natural is requesting 

an extension until December 31, 2023, 

to complete Project construction, 

accounting for potential delays. 

This notice establishes a 15-calendar 

day intervention and comment period 

deadline. Any person wishing to 

comment on Natural’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,2 the Commission will aim to 

issue an order acting on the request 

within 45 days.3 The Commission will 

address all arguments relating to 

whether the applicant has demonstrated 

there is good cause to grant the 

extension.4 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.5 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.6 The OEP Director, or his or 

her designee, will act on all of those 

extension requests that are uncontested.
