BILLING CODE 6717–01–P 

DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY 

Federal Energy Regulatory 

Commission 

[Docket No. CP21–20–000] 

Algonquin Gas Transmission, LLC; 

Notice of Request for Extension of 

Time 

Take notice that on February 18, 2022, 

Algonquin Gas Transmission, LLC 

(Algonquin) requested that the Federal 

Energy Regulatory Commission 

(Commission) grant an extension of 

time, until September 27, 2022, to 

complete the construction of the Stony 

Point Anomaly MNR Crossing Project 

(Project), as authorized after the 60-day 

deadline of Algonquin’s prior notice 

issued by the Commission on December 

28, 2020. By that process, Algonquin 

was initially required to complete and 

make available for service in one year, 

by February 27, 2022. 

Algonquin states the Project has made 

substantial progress but experienced 

extenuating circumstances delaying its 

completion. Algonquin avers the delays 

have been a result of (i) complex 

dewatering conditions at the work site 

that required enhanced measures, (ii) 

slower than anticipated tunneling 

progress due to challenging substrate 

conditions, and (iii) rainfall and flash 

flood conditions from Tropical Storm 

Ida. Algonquin was able to complete the 

installation of the 26-inch diameter 

pipeline by December 2021. However, 

Algonquin was unable to complete the 

tie-in of these facilities because that 

would have required an outage of the 

active pipeline during the winter 

heating season. 

This notice establishes a 15-calendar 

day intervention and comment period 

deadline. Any person wishing to 

comment on Algonquin’s request for an 

extension of time may do so. No reply 

comments or answers will be 

considered. If you wish to obtain legal 

status by becoming a party to the 

proceedings for this request, you 

should, on or before the comment date 

stated below, file 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 Natural 

Gas Act (18 CFR 157.10). 

As a matter of practice, the 

Commission itself generally acts on 

requests for extensions of time to 

complete construction for Natural Gas 

Act facilities when such requests are 

contested before order issuance. For 

those extension requests that are 

contested,1 the Commission will aim to 

issue an order acting on the request 

within 45 days.2 The Commission will 

address all arguments relating to 

whether the applicant has demonstrated 

there is good cause to grant the 

extension.3 The Commission will not 

consider arguments that re-litigate the 

issuance of the certificate order, 

including whether the Commission 

properly found the project to be in the 

public convenience and necessity and 

whether the Commission’s 

environmental analysis for the 

certificate complied with the National 

Environmental Policy Act.4 At the time 

a pipeline requests an extension of time, 

orders on certificates of public 

convenience and necessity are final and 

the Commission will not re-litigate their 

issuance.5 The OEP Director, or his or 

her designee, will act on all of those 

extension requests that are uncontested.

of this document in the Federal 

Register, the Commission provides all
