DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY 

Federal Energy Regulatory 

Commission 

[Docket No. CP06–428–000] 

Panhandle Eastern Pipeline Company, 

LP; Notice of Availability of the 

Environmental Assessment for the 

Proposed Tuscola East Replacement 

Project 

March 7, 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 

by Panhandle Eastern Pipeline 

Company, LP (Panhandle) 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 the 

construction and operation of the 

proposed project. Panhandle proposes 

to replace a total of 31.3 miles of 

pipeline consisting of three segments 

and abandoning in place or by removal 

the existing 29.4 miles of pipelines that 

correspond with the new replacement 

lines. Specifically, the project includes: 

• Tuscola 100-Line (Douglas County, 

IL)—Replacing 6.7 miles of existing 100- 

Line 20-inch diameter pipeline with 36- 

inch diameter pipeline, designating the 

new pipeline as the 500-Line, and 

installing a new pig launcher/receiver; 

• Tuscola 200-Line (Douglas County, 

IL)—Replacing 1.9 miles of the existing 

200-Line 36-inch diameter pipeline with 

20-inch diameter pipeline (the 1.9 miles 

of 36-inch pipeline replaced would be 

used for the new 500-Line); 


cprice-sewell on PROD1PC66 with NOTICES
11350 Federal Register / Vol. 72, No. 48 / Tuesday, March 13, 2007 / Notices 

1 Interventions may also be filed electronically via 

the Internet in lieu of paper. See the previous 

discussion on filing comments electronically. 

• Montezuma 100-Line (Parke 

County, IN)—Replacing 6.6 miles of the 

existing 100-Line 20-inch diameter 

pipeline with 36-inch diameter 

pipeline, designating the new pipeline 

as the 500-Line, and installing a new pig 

launcher/receiver; and 

• Zionsville 200-Line (Marion, Boone, 

and Hamilton Counties, IN)—Replacing 

17.9 miles of the existing 200-Line 24- 

inch diameter pipeline with 30-inch 

diameter pipeline, designating the new 

pipeline as the 500-Line, and installing 

a new pig launcher/receiver and a new 

mainline valve (MLV). 

Due to the age of Panhandle’s existing 

line and the U.S. Department of 

Transportation’s Integrity Management 

Plan regulations, Panhandle reduced the 

operating pressure on one line by 20 

percent in 2004. Additional measures to 

mitigate risk for High Consequence 

Areas must be implemented by end of 

2011. Panhandle’s project purpose is to 

restore long-haul transportation capacity 

from Tuscola heading east to Michigan 

by replacing the existing diameter 

pipeline with larger diameter pipeline. 

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: 

Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, 

Public Reference Room, 888 First Street, 

NE., Room 2A, Washington, DC 20426, 

(202) 502–8371. 

Copies of the EA have been mailed to 

Federal, State and local agencies, public 

interest groups, interested individuals, 

newspapers, and parties to this 

proceeding. 

Any person wishing to comment on 

the EA may do so. To ensure 

consideration prior to a Commission 

decision on the proposal, it is important 

that we receive your comments before 

the date specified below. 

Please note that the Commission 

strongly encourages electronic filing of 

any comments or interventions or 

protests to this proceeding. See 18 CFR 

385.2001(a)(1)(iii) and the instructions
