Transcontinental Gas Pipe Line 

Company, LLC; Notice of Application 

Take notice that on February 18, 2015, 

Transcontinental Gas Pipe Line 

Company, LLC (Transco), PO Box 1396, 

Houston, Texas 77251, filed an 

application pursuant to section 7(c) of 

the Natural Gas Act (NGA) for 

authorization to construct its Garden 

State Expansion Project in two phases. 

In Phase 1, Transco proposes to: (i) 

Construct a new meter and regulating 

station in Burlington County, New 

Jersey; (ii) uprate an existing electric 

motor drive to 25,000 horsepower (hp) 

at Compressor Station 205 in Mercer 

County, New Jersey; and (iii) construct 

related appurtenances. In Phase 2, 

Transco proposes to: (i) Construct a new 

30,500 hp, electric-driven compressor 

station and appurtenances in Burlington 

County, New Jersey; (ii) uprate two 

existing electric-driven motors to 16,000 

hp each at Compressor Station 205 in 

Mercer County, New Jersey; and (iii) 

construct related appurtenances. 

Transco states that the Garden State 

Expansion Project will provide 180,000 

dekatherms per day of firm capacity to 

a new delivery point with New Jersey 

Natural Gas Company. Transco 

estimates the cost of the proposed 

project to be approximately $116 

million, 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 web at 

http://www.ferc.gov using the 

‘‘eLibrary’’ link. Enter the docket 

number excluding the last three digits in

Any questions regarding the 

application may be directed to Marg 

Camardello, Transcontinental Gas Pipe 

Line Company, LLC, PO Box 1396, 

Houston, Texas 77251, by telephone at 

(713) 215–3380. 

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 

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: March 25, 2015.

Commission 

[Project No. 2678–006–CA] 

Pacific Gas and Electric Company; 

Notice of Availability of Environmental 

Assessment 

In accordance with the National 

Environmental Policy Act of 1969 and 

the Federal Energy Regulatory 

Commission’s (Commission) 

regulations, 18 CFR part 380 (Order No. 

486, 52 FR 47897), the Office of Energy 

Projects has reviewed the application 

for a subsequent license for the Narrows 

No. 2 Transmission Line Project and has 

prepared an Environmental Assessment 

(EA). The project occupies 1.28 acres of 

public land managed by the United 

States Army Corps of Engineers and 

provides service from the Yuba County 

Water Agency’s Narrows No. 2 

Powerhouse (a component of FERC 

Project No. 2246), in Yuba County, to 

PG&E’s Narrows No. 2 Substation, in 

Nevada County. 

The EA contains staff’s analysis of the 

potential environmental effects of the 

project and alternatives and concludes 

that licensing the project, with 

appropriate environmental protective 

measures, would not constitute a major 

federal action that would significantly
