l. The existing Lakeport Hydroelectric 

Project consists of: (1) A 243-foot-long, 

12.34-foot-high concrete gravity dam 

that includes the following sections: (a) 

A 60-foot-long, 12.34-foot-high east 

abutment section; (b) 78-foot-long, 4- 

foot-high section with a sill elevation of 

495.22 feet National Geodetic Vertical 

Datum of 1929 (NGVD29), topped with 

three 10-foot-high, 18-foot-wide slide 

gates; (c) an approximately 15-foot-long

dam and that contains three 200-kW 

vertical submersible Flygt turbinegenerator units located on outdoor 

concrete pilings for a total installed 

capacity of 600 kW; (2) a 75-foot-long 

stone training wall that extends 

downstream on the western side of the 

powerhouse; (3) an impoundment (Lake 

Winnipesaukee) with a surface area of 

approximately 46,208 acres and a 

storage capacity of 165,800 acre-feet at 

an elevation of 504 feet NGVD29; (4) a 

2,500-square-foot forebay area; (4) a 7.7-

consultation with agencies. Lakeport is 

not proposing any operational changes.

o. Scoping Process: 

Commission staff will prepare either 

an environmental assessment (EA) or an 

Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) 

that describes and evaluates the 

probable effects, if any, of the licensee’s 

proposed action and alternatives. The 

EA or EIS will consider environmental 

impacts and reasonable alternatives to 

the proposed action. The Commission’s 

scoping process will help determine the 

required level of analysis and satisfy the 

National Environmental Policy Act 

(NEPA) scoping requirements, 

irrespective of whether the Commission 

prepares an EA or an EIS. At this time, 

we do anticipate holding on-site scoping 

meetings. Instead, we are soliciting 

written comments and suggestions on 

the preliminary list of issues and 

alternatives to be addressed in the 

NEPA document, as described in 

scoping document 1 (SD1), issued 

February 24, 2022. 

Copies of the SD1 outlining the 

subject areas to be addressed in the 

NEPA document were distributed to the 

parties on the Commission’s mailing list 

and the applicant’s distribution list. 

Copies of SD1 may be viewed on the

DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY 

Federal Energy Regulatory 

Commission 

[Docket No. CP21–197–000] 

Kern River Gas Transmission 

Company; Notice of Availability of the 

Final Environmental Impact Statement 

for the Proposed; Delta Lateral Project 

The staff of the Federal Energy 

Regulatory Commission (FERC or 

Commission) has prepared a final 

environmental impact statement (EIS) 

for the Delta Lateral Project, proposed 

by Kern River Gas Transmission 

Company (Kern River) in the abovereferenced docket. Kern River requests 

authorization to construct, own, and 

operate an approximately 36 mile-long, 

24-inch-diameter pipeline; a delivery 

meter station; and appurtenant facilities, 

all located in Millard County, Utah. 

According to Kern River, the Project 

purpose is to provide firm 

transportation service of 140,000 

dekatherms of natural gas per day from 

Opal, Wyoming to the Intermountain 

Power Project, an electrical generating 

facility in Delta, Utah. Prior to filing its 

application, Kern River participated in 

the Commission’s Pre-filing Process for 

this Project under Docket No. PF20–4– 

000. 

The final EIS assesses the potential 

environmental effects of the 

construction and operation of the Delta 

Lateral Project in accordance with the 

requirements of the National 

Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) and 

responds to comments that were 

received on the Commission’s 

November 4, 2021 draft EIS.1 As 

described in the final EIS, the FERC staff 

concludes that approval of the Project 

would result in some adverse 

environmental impacts; however, with 

the potential exception of climate 

change impacts, these impacts would be 

reduced to less-than-significant levels 

because of the impact avoidance, 

minimization, and mitigation measures 

proposed by Kern River and those 

recommended by staff in the EIS. 

The U.S. Department of the Interior, 

Bureau of Land Management (BLM), 

participated as a cooperating agency in 

the preparation of the EIS. Cooperating 

agencies have jurisdiction by law or 

special expertise with respect to 

resources potentially affected by the 

proposal and participate in the NEPA 

analysis. A portion of the Project would 

be constructed on lands managed by the 

BLM Fillmore Field Office. The BLM 

assisted in the preparation of this EIS 

and may adopt all or portions of the 

document to satisfy its requirements 

under NEPA in response to Kern River’s 

application. 

The Project would consist of the 

following specific facilities: 

• A 35.84-mile-long, 24-inchdiameter natural gas pipeline; 

• a delivery meter station; 

• two mainline taps with automated 

lateral inlet valve assemblies; 

• an in-line inspection device 

launcher and receiver; 

• an automated lateral block valve 

assembly; and 

• ancillary facilities. 

The Commission mailed a copy of the 

Notice of Availability of the Final 

Environmental Impact Statement for the 

Proposed Delta Lateral Project to 

federal, state, and local government 

representatives and agencies; elected 

officials; environmental and public 

interest groups; Native American tribes; 

potentially affected landowners and 

other interested individuals and groups; 

and newspapers and libraries in the 

project areas. The EIS is only available 

in electronic format. It may be viewed 

and downloaded from the FERC’s 

website (www.ferc.gov), on the natural 

gas environmental documents page 

(https://www.ferc.gov/industries-data/ 

natural-gas/environment/ 

environmental-documents). In addition, 

the EIS may be accessed by using the 

eLibrary link on the FERC’s website.
