Chesapeake Utilities Corporation; Notice of Application

    Take notice that on January 23, 2015, Chesapeake Utilities 
Corporation (Chesapeake), 909 Silver Lake Blvd., Dover, Delaware 19904, 
filed an application pursuant to section 7(f) of the Natural Gas Act 
(NGA) requesting a service area determination within which it may 
enlarge or expand its natural gas distribution facilities without 
further Commission authorization. Chesapeake also requests a 
determination that it qualifies as a local distribution company for 
purposes of section 311 of the Natural Gas Policy Act of 1978 (NGPA) 
and a waiver of all reporting, accounting, and other rules and 
regulations under the NGA and NGPA that are normally applicable to 
natural gas companies.
    Chesapeake received a request for service from Warwick Mushroom 
Farms, LLC (WMF) at its existing facility in Cecil County, Maryland to 
displace its current use of propane. Chesapeake proposes to construct 
approximately 1.5 miles of 6-inch diameter pipeline in Delaware and 
approximately 3.9 miles of 6-inch diameter pipeline in Maryland in 
order to connect with WMF's facility, all as more fully set forth in 
the application which is on file with the Commission and open to public 
inspection. The filing is available for review at the Commission in the 
Public Reference Room or may be viewed on the Commission's Web site at 
http://www.ferc.gov using the ``eLibrary'' link. Enter the docket 
number excluding the last three digits in the docket number field to

    Pursuant to section 157.9 of the Commission's rules, 18 CFR 157.9, 
within 90 days of this Notice, the Commission staff will either: 
Complete its environmental assessment (EA) 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 EA for this proposal.
    The filing of the 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 EA.
    There are two ways to become involved in the Commission's review of 
this project. First, any person wishing to obtain legal status by 
becoming a party to the proceedings for this project should, on or 
before the comment date stated below file with the Federal Energy 
Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street NE., Washington, DC 20426, a 
motion to intervene in accordance with the requirements of the 
Commission's Rules of Practice and Procedure (18 CFR 385.214 or 
385.211) and the Regulations under the NGA (18 CFR 157.10). A person 
obtaining party status will be placed on the service list maintained by 
the Secretary of the Commission and will receive copies of all 
documents filed by the applicant and by all other parties. A party must 
submit seven copies of filings made in the proceeding with the 
Commission and must mail a copy to the applicant and to every other 
party. Only parties to the proceeding can ask for court review of 
Commission orders in the proceeding.
    However, a person does not have to intervene in order to have 
comments considered. The second way to participate is by filing with 
the Secretary of the Commission, as soon as possible, an original and 
two copies of comments in support of or in opposition to this project. 
The Commission will consider these comments in determining the 
appropriate action to be taken, but the filing of a comment alone will 
not serve to make the filer a party to the proceeding. The Commission's 
rules require that persons filing comments in opposition to the project 
provide copies of their protests only to the party or parties directly 
involved in the protest.
    Persons who wish to comment only on the environmental review of 
this project should submit an original and two copies of their comments 
to the Secretary of the Commission. Environmental commentors will be 
placed on the Commission's environmental mailing list, will receive

[[Page 7442]]

copies of the environmental documents, and will be notified of meetings 
associated with the Commission's environmental review process. 
Environmental commentors will not be required to serve copies of filed 
documents on all other parties. However, the non-party commentors will 
not receive copies of all documents filed by other parties or issued by 
the Commission (except for the mailing of environmental documents 
issued by the Commission) and will not have the right to seek court 
review of the Commission's final order.
    The Commission strongly encourages electronic filings of comments, 
protests and interventions in lieu of paper using the ``eFiling'' link 
at http://www.ferc.gov. Persons unable to file electronically should 
submit an original and five copies of the protest or intervention to 
the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street NE., 
Washington, DC 20426.
    Comment Date: February 24, 2015.

    Dated: February 3, 2015.
Kimberly D. Bose,
Secretary.
