Take notice that on October 29, 2024, 

NGO Transmission, Inc. (NGO 

Transmission), 1500 Granville Road, 

Newark, Ohio 43058–4970, filed an 

application under section 7(b) of the 

Natural Gas Act (NGA), and part 157 of 

the Commission’s regulations requesting 

authorization to abandon all of its 

jurisdictional facilities, consisting of 

three underground natural gas storage 

facilities and approximately 171 miles 

of small and medium diameter natural 

gas pipelines and appurtenant facilities 

located in Perry, Muskingum, and 

Licking counties in Ohio. NGO

facilities, all as more fully set forth in 

the application which is on file with the 

Commission and open for public 

inspection.

Pursuant to section 157.9 of the 

Commission’s Rules of Practice and 

Procedure,1 within 90 days of this 

Notice the Commission staff will either: 

complete its environmental review and 

place it into the Commission’s public 

record (eLibrary) for this proceeding; or 

issue a Notice of Schedule for 

Environmental Review. If a Notice of 

Schedule for Environmental Review is 

issued, it will indicate, among other 

milestones, the anticipated date for the 

Commission staff’s issuance of the final 

environmental impact statement (FEIS) 

or environmental assessment (EA) for 

this proposal. The filing of an EA in the 

Commission’s public record for this 

proceeding or the issuance of a Notice 

of Schedule for Environmental Review 

will serve to notify Federal and State 

agencies of the timing for the 

completion of all necessary reviews, and 

the subsequent need to complete all 

Federal authorizations within 90 days of 

the date of issuance of the Commission 

staff’s FEIS or EA. 

Public Participation 

There are three ways to become 

involved in the Commission’s review of 

this project: you can file comments on 

the project, you can protest the filing, 

and you can file a motion to intervene 

in the proceeding. There is no fee or 

cost for filing comments or intervening. 

The deadline for filing a motion to 

intervene is 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time on 

November 28, 2024. How to file 

protests, motions to intervene, and 

comments is explained below.

Comments 

Any person wishing to comment on 

the project may do so. Comments may 

include statements of support or 

objections, to the project as a whole or 

specific aspects of the project. The more 

specific your comments, the more useful 

they will be. 

Protests 

Pursuant to sections 157.10(a)(4) 2 and 

385.211 3 of the Commission’s

may file a protest to the application. 

Protests must comply with the 

requirements specified in section

protestor states it also seeks to be an 

intervenor.

protests are timely and properly 

recorded, please submit your comments 

on or before November 28, 2024.

Persons who comment on the 

environmental review of this project 

will be placed on the Commission’s 

environmental mailing list, and will 

receive notification when the 

environmental documents (EA or EIS) 

are issued for this project and will be 

notified of meetings associated with the 

Commission’s environmental review 

process. 

The Commission considers all 

comments received about the project in 

determining the appropriate action to be 

taken. However, the filing of a comment 

alone will not serve to make the filer a 

party to the proceeding. To become a 

party, you must intervene in the 

proceeding. For instructions on how to 

intervene, see below. 

Interventions 

Any person, which includes 

individuals, organizations, businesses, 

municipalities, and other entities,6 has 

the option to file a motion to intervene 

in this proceeding. Only intervenors 

have the right to request rehearing of 

Commission orders issued in this 

proceeding and to subsequently 

challenge the Commission’s orders in 

the U.S. Circuit Courts of Appeal. 

To intervene, you must submit a 

motion to intervene to the Commission 

in accordance with Rule 214 of the 

Commission’s Rules of Practice and 

Procedure 7 and the regulations under 

the NGA 8 by the intervention deadline 

for the project, which is November 28, 

2024. As described further in Rule 214, 

your motion to intervene must state, to 

the extent known, your position 

regarding the proceeding, as well as 

your interest in the proceeding. For an 

individual, this could include your 

status as a landowner, ratepayer, 

resident of an impacted community, or 

recreationist. You do not need to have 

property directly impacted by the 

project in order to intervene. For more 

information about motions to intervene, 

refer to the FERC website at https://

www.ferc.gov/resources/guides/how-to/ 

intervene.asp. 

There are two ways to submit your 

motion to intervene. In both instances, 

please reference the Project docket 

number CP25–11–000 in your 

submission. 

(1) You may file your motion to 

intervene by using the Commission’s 

eFiling feature, which is located on the 

Commission’s website (www.ferc.gov) 

under the link to Documents and 

Filings. New eFiling users must first 

create an account by clicking on 

‘‘eRegister.’’ You will be asked to select 

the type of filing you are making; first 

select ‘‘General’’ and then select 

‘‘Intervention.’’ The eFiling feature 

includes a document-less intervention 

option; for more information, visit 

https://www.ferc.gov/docs-filing/efiling/ 

document-less-intervention.pdf; or 

(2) You can file a paper copy of your 

motion to intervene, along with three 

copies, by mailing the documents to the 

address below. Your motion to 

intervene must reference the Project 

docket number CP25–11–000. 

To file via USPS: Debbie-Anne A. 

Reese, Secretary, Federal Energy 

Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street 

NE, Washington, DC 20426. 

To file via any other courier: DebbieAnne A. Reese, Secretary, Federal 

Energy Regulatory Commission, 12225 

Wilkins Avenue, Rockville, Maryland 

20852. 

The Commission encourages 

electronic filing of motions to intervene 

(option 1 above) and has eFiling staff 

available to assist you at (202) 502–8258 

or FercOnlineSupport@ferc.gov. 

Protests and motions to intervene 

must be served on the applicant either 

by mail at: Daniel S. McVey, Chief 

Operating Officer, 1500 Granville Road, 

Newark, Ohio 43058–4970 or by email 

(with a link to the document) at dan_

mcvey@theenergycoop.com. Any 

subsequent submissions by an 

intervenor must be served on the 

applicant and all other parties to the 

proceeding. Contact information for 

parties can be downloaded from the 

service list at the eService link on FERC 

Online. Service can be via email with a 

link to the document. 

All timely, unopposed 9 motions to 

intervene are automatically granted by 

operation of Rule 214(c)(1).10 Motions to 

intervene that are filed after the 

intervention deadline are untimely, and 

may be denied. Any late-filed motion to 

intervene must show good cause for 

being late and must explain why the 

time limitation should be waived and 

provide justification by reference to 

factors set forth in Rule 214(d) of the 

Commission’s Rules and Regulations.11

A person obtaining party status will be 

placed on the service list maintained by 

the Secretary of the Commission and 

will receive copies (paper or electronic) 

of all documents filed by the applicant 

and by all other parties. 

Tracking the Proceeding 

Throughout the proceeding, 

additional information about the project 

will be available from the Commission’s 

Office of External Affairs, at (866) 208– 

FERC, or on the FERC website at 

www.ferc.gov using the ‘‘eLibrary’’ link 

as described above. The eLibrary link 

also provides access to the texts of all 

formal documents issued by the 

Commission, such as orders, notices, 

and rulemakings. 

In addition, the Commission offers a 

free service called eSubscription which 

allows you to keep track of all formal 

issuances and submittals in specific 

dockets. 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. For more information and to 

register, go to www.ferc.gov/docs-filing/
