Rover Pipeline LLC; Notice of Schedule for Environmental Review 
of the UGS-Crawford Meter Station Project

    On March 15, 2018, Rover Pipeline LLC filed an application in 
Docket No. CP18-118-000 requesting a Certificate of Public Convenience 
and Necessity pursuant to Section 7(c) of the Natural Gas Act to 
construct and operate certain natural gas pipeline facilities. The 
proposed project is known as the UGS-Crawford Meter Station Project 
(Project), and would receive up to 35 million standard cubic feet per 
day of pipeline quality natural gas from an interconnect with the 
gathering pipeline facilities of Utica Gas Services, LLC.
    On March 28, 2018, the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission 
(Commission or FERC) issued its Notice of Application for the Project. 
Among other things, that notice alerted agencies issuing federal 
authorizations of the requirement to complete all necessary reviews and 
to reach a final decision on a request for a federal authorization 
within 90 days of the date of issuance of the Commission staff's 
Environmental Assessment (EA) for the Project. This instant notice 
identifies the FERC staff's planned schedule for the completion of the 
EA for the Project.

Schedule for Environmental Review

    Issuance of EA: July 13, 2018.
    90-day Federal Authorization Decision Deadline: October 11, 2018.
    If a schedule change becomes necessary, additional notice will be 
provided so that the relevant agencies are kept informed of the 
Project's progress.

Project Description

    The Project would consist of one new meter and regulating station 
on agricultural land west of Highway 221 in Salem Township, Jefferson 
County, Ohio. The station would consist of various components including 
a horizontal filter separator, ultrasonic meter skid, flow control 
skid, gas quality and measurement buildings, satellite communications, 
and a condensate storage tank. The facility would be constructed on 
3.64 acres of land, of which 0.9 acre would be fenced and maintained 
for operation.

Background

    On May 1, 2018, the Commission issued a Notice of Intent to Prepare 
an Environmental Assessment for the Proposed UGS-Crawford Meter Station 
Project and Request for Comments on Environmental Issues (NOI). The NOI 
was sent to affected landowners; federal, state, and local government 
agencies; elected officials; Native American tribes; other interested 
parties; and local libraries. In response to the NOI, the Commission 
received comments from U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service regarding impacts 
on multiple federally listed sensitive species. All substantive 
comments will be addressed in the EA.

Additional Information

    In order to receive notification of the issuance of the EA and to 
keep track of all formal issuances and submittals in specific dockets, 
the Commission offers a free service called eSubscription. This can 
reduce the amount of time you spend researching proceedings by 
automatically providing you with notification of these filings, 
document summaries, and direct links to the documents. Go to
