BILLING CODE 6717–01–P 

DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY 

Federal Energy Regulatory 

Commission 

[Docket No. CP23–466–000] 

Great Basin Gas Transmission 

Company; Notice of Availability of the 

Environmental Assessment for the 

Proposed 2024 Great Basin Expansion 

Project 

The staff of the Federal Energy 

Regulatory Commission (FERC or 

Commission) has prepared an 

environmental assessment (EA) for the 

2024 Great Basin Expansion Project 

(Project), proposed by Great Basin Gas 

Transmission Company (Great Basin) in 

the above-referenced docket. Great 

Basin requests authorization to 

construct, operate, and abandon certain 

natural gas pipeline facilities. The 

expansion would provide 5,674 

dekatherms per day of incremental firm 

transportation service for two existing 

firm transportation shippers and would 

require construction of approximately 

3.4 miles of upsized or looped pipeline 

in three segments across Douglas, Lyon, 

and Storey Counties, Nevada. 

The EA assesses the potential 

environmental effects of the 

construction and operation of the 

Project in accordance with the 

requirements of the National 

Environmental Policy Act (NEPA). The 

FERC 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 Bureau of Land Management 

(BLM) participated as a cooperating 

agency in the preparation of the EA. 

Cooperating agencies have jurisdiction 

by law or special expertise with respect 

to resources potentially affected by the 

proposal and participate in the NEPA 

analysis. The BLM will adopt and use 

the EA to consider the issuance of a 

right-of-way grant for the portion of the 

project on federal lands. 

The proposed Project includes the 

following facilities: 

• construction of approximately 0.3 

mile of 20-inch-diameter pipeline loop 

along the Carson Lateral in Storey 

County, Nevada, referred to as the 

Truckee Canal segment; 

• abandonment and replacement of 

approximately 2.9 miles of existing 10- 

inch-diameter pipeline with new 20- 

inch-diameter pipeline along the Carson 

Lateral in Lyon County, Nevada, 

referred to as the Silver Springs 

segment; and 

• construction of approximately 0.3 

mile of 12-inch-diameter pipeline loop 

paralleling its South Tahoe Lateral in 

Douglas County, Nevada, referred to as 

the Kingsbury segment. 

The Commission mailed a copy of the 

Notice of Availability of the EA to 

federal, state, and local government 

representatives and agencies; elected 

officials; environmental and public 

interest groups; Native American tribes; 

potentially affected landowners; 

environmental justice stakeholders 

adjacent to the Project area that include 

legal aid providers, rural cooperatives, 

community social services 

organizations, senior citizens centers, 

public health agencies; newspapers and 

libraries in the project area; and other 

interested individuals and groups. The 

EA is only available in electronic 

format. It may be viewed and 

downloaded from the FERC’s website 

(www.ferc.gov), on the natural gas 

environmental documents page (https://
