BILLING CODE 6717–01–P 

DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY 

Federal Energy Regulatory 

Commission 

[Docket No. CP06–452–000] 

Trunkline Gas Company, LLC; Notice 

of Availability of the Environmental 

Assessment for the Proposed Field 

Zone Expansion Project 

March 5, 2007. 

The staff of the Federal Energy 

Regulatory Commission (FERC or 

Commission) has prepared an 

environmental assessment (EA) on the 

natural gas pipeline facilities proposed 

to be constructed by Trunkline Gas 

Company, LLC (Trunkline) in the abovereferenced docket. 

The EA was prepared to satisfy the 

requirements of the National 

Environmental Policy Act. The staff 

concludes that approval of the proposed 

project, with appropriate mitigating 

measures, would not constitute a major 

Federal action significantly affecting the 

quality of the human environment. 

The EA assesses the potential 

environmental effects of: 

Texas and Louisiana 

• Installation of a 45-mile-long 36- 

inch-diameter NTX Line-200 Loop 

natural gas pipeline and associated 

facilities from the Gate Valve 43 in 

Jasper County, Texas to the Longville 

Meter Station in Beauregard Parish, 

Louisiana, running through Jasper and 

Newton Counties, Texas and Beauregard 

Parish, Louisiana. 

Texas 

• Installation of three meter stations 

in Hardin County, Jasper Counties, and 

Liberty County, Texas; and 

• Abandonment a 6,350-horsepower 

(Hp) gas-turbine centrifugal compressor 

unit replaced with a new 10,350-Hp 

electric motor-driven compressor unit 

and for a total of 10,350-Hp of 

compression at the Kountze Compressor 

Station in Hardin County, Texas. 

Louisiana 

• Installation of a 13.5-mile-long 36- 

inch-diameter Henry Hub Lateral 

natural gas pipeline and associated 

facilities along existing pipeline rightof-way (ROW) in Vermilion Parish, 

Louisiana; 

• Installation of two bi-directional 

meter stations in Vermilion Parish, 

Louisiana; 

• Relocation of two 3,000-Hp 

compressor units from the Centerville 

Compressor Station to the Kaplan 

Compressor Station in Vermilion Parish, 

Louisiana; and 

• Installation of a 10,350-Hp 

compressor unit at the Longview 

Compressor Station in Beauregard 

Parish, Louisiana. 

Illinois 

• Removal of a 3,000-Hp compressor 

unit at the Joppa Compressor Station in 

Massac County, Illinois; modify it and 

uprate to 5,100-Hp, and then re-install 

it at the Kaplan Compressor Station in 

Louisiana. 

The purpose of the proposed project 

is to expand the capacity of Trunkline’s 

natural gas pipeline facilities to allow 

for the flow of natural gas from 

expanding gas production in Texas to 

delivery points in Louisiana. 

The EA has been placed in the public 

files of the FERC. A limited number of 

copies of the EA are available for 

distribution and public inspection at:
