DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY 

Federal Energy Regulatory 

Commission 

[Docket No. CP23–542–000] 

Golden Triangle Storage, L.L.C.; Notice 

of Availability of the Environmental 

Assessment for the Proposed Golden 

Triangle Storage Expansion Project 

The staff of the Federal Energy 

Regulatory Commission (FERC or 

Commission) has prepared an 

environmental assessment (EA) for the 

Golden Triangle Storage Expansion 

Project (Project), proposed by Golden 

Triangle Storage, L.L.C. (Golden 

Triangle) in the above-referenced 

docket. Golden Triangle requests 

authorization to conduct the following 

construction activities in Jefferson 

County, Texas. 

• developing and operating two new

salt dome natural gas storage caverns 

and appurtenant facilities; 

• constructing and operating a brine

disposal well and brine disposal 

pipeline; 

• constructing and operating six new

5,500 horsepower compressor units and 

appurtenant facilities; and 

• constructing and operating two new

service corridors and three new 

permanent access roads. 

The EA assesses the potential 

environmental effects 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 Commission mailed a copy of the 

Notice of Availability to federal, state, 

and local government representatives 

and agencies; elected officials; 

environmental and public interest 

groups; Native American tribes; 

potentially affected landowners and 

other interested individuals and groups; 

and newspapers and libraries in the 

project area. 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:// 

www.ferc.gov/industries-data/naturalgas/environment/environmentaldocuments). In addition, the EA may be 

accessed by using the eLibrary link on 

the FERC’s website. Click on the 

eLibrary link (https://elibrary.ferc.gov/ 

eLibrary/search), select ‘‘General 

Search’’ and enter the docket number in 

the ‘‘Docket Number’’ field, excluding 

the last three digits (i.e. CP23–542). Be 

sure you have selected an appropriate 

date range. For assistance, please

FercOnlineSupport@ferc.gov or toll free 

at (866) 208–3676, or for TTY, contact 

(202) 502–8659.

The EA is not a decision document.

It presents Commission staff’s 

independent analysis of the 

environmental issues for the 

Commission to consider when 

addressing the merits of all issues in 

this proceeding. Any person wishing to 

comment on the EA may do so. Your 

comments should focus on the EA’s 

disclosure and discussion of potential 

environmental effects, reasonable 

alternatives, and measures to avoid or 

lessen environmental impacts. The more 

specific your comments, the more useful 

they will be. To ensure that the 

Commission has the opportunity to 

consider your comments prior to 

making its decision on this project, it is 

important that we receive your 

comments in Washington, DC on or 

before 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time on March 

4, 2024. 

For your convenience, there are three 

methods you can use to file your 

comments to the Commission. The 

Commission encourages electronic filing 

of comments and has staff available to 

assist you at (866) 208–3676 or 

FercOnlineSupport@ferc.gov. Please 

carefully follow these instructions so 

that your comments are properly 

recorded.

business day. 18 CFR 385.2007(a)(2). Because the 

deadline for filing a license application fell on a

Filing environmental comments will 

not give you intervenor status, but you 

do not need intervenor status to have 

your comments considered. Only 

intervenors have the right to seek 

rehearing or judicial review of the 

Commission’s decision. At this point in 

this proceeding, the timeframe for filing 

timely intervention requests has 

expired. Any person seeking to become 

a party to the proceeding must file a 

motion to intervene out-of-time 

pursuant to Rule 214(b)(3) and (d) of the 

Commission’s Rules of Practice and 

Procedures (18 CFR 385.214(b)(3) and 

(d)) and show good cause why the time 

limitation should be waived. Motions to 

intervene are more fully described at 

https://www.ferc.gov/how-intervene.
