Columbia Gulf proposes to construct 

approximately 6.8 miles of 30-inch 

diameter natural gas pipeline loop 

designated West Lateral (WL) 400 Loop 

in Jefferson Parish, approximately 27.3 

miles of 36-ich diameter natural gas 

pipeline segment (WL 400) in Jefferson 

Davis, Cameron, and Calcasieu Parishes, 

and appurtenant facilities. Columbia 

Gulf also proposes to construct a new 

12,260 horsepower compressor station 

(Lake Arthur Compressor Station) in 

Jefferson Davis Parish. The proposed 

project is in response to new market 

demands and required alterations in the 

direction of gas flow. The Cameron 

Access Project will create additional 

incremental capacity of up to 800 

MMcf/day. Columbia Gulf has entered 

into binding precedent agreements with 

shippers providing the transportation of 

up to 700 MMcf/day of natural gas. 

Columbia Gulf proposes to charge a 

negotiated incremental rate for firm 

transportation service using the 

proposed project. The cost of the project 

is $309.9 million. Columbia Gulf 

proposes an in-service date of 

December, 2017. 

On July 17, 2014, the Commission 

staff granted Columbia Gulf’s request to 

use the National Environmental Policy 

Act (NEPA) Pre-Filing Process and 

assigned Docket No. PF14–16–000 to 

staff activities involving the proposed 

facilities. Now, as of the filing of this 

application on March 6, 2015, the NEPA 

Pre-Filing Process for this project has 

ended. From this time forward, this 

proceeding will be conducted in Docket 

No. CP15–109–000, as noted in the 

caption of this Notice. 

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 final 

environmental impact statement (FEIS) 

or 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 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. 

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
