Additional Opportunities for 

Engagement 

Tribal Engagement 

Any government-to-government 

consultations with affected federally 

recognized Indian Tribes will be 

conducted in a manner appropriate to 

such consultations, respectful of Tribal 

sovereignty and consistent with the 

ongoing trust responsibility between the 

United States and Tribes. 

Regional Entity Engagement 

Pursuant to FPA section 216(a)(3), 

DOE will consult with regional entities 

during Phase 3. 

IV. Request for Comments 

DOE specifically requests 

recommendations and comments on the 

contents of the public engagement 

framework, including topics such as: the 

number, location, and format of public 

meetings; preferred day of week or time 

of day for such engagements; and 

identifying existing forums for engaging 

with interested or potentially affected 

stakeholders. 

DOE additionally requests 

recommendations and comments on 

methods of outreach, including topics 

such as: names of any specific entities, 

such as community-based organizations, 

that should be included in or contacted 

directly as part of public engagement; 

and appropriate local news outlets, 

newspapers, and other news and media 

outlets for reaching interested or 

potentially affected stakeholders. 

DOE additionally seeks suggestions 

on how to organize group meetings if all 

individual meeting requests cannot be 

accommodated, including topics around 

which meetings should be organized. 

DOE invites suggestions on 

environmental, cultural, or 

socioeconomic considerations or 

potential effects that DOE should 

consider during its review and analysis 

of its potential NIETC designations, 

including comments on whether any 

potential effects can be meaningfully 

evaluated. DOE additionally seeks input 

on whether each potential NIETC 

maximizes existing rights-of-way and 

avoids and minimizes, to the maximum 

extent practicable, and offsets to the 

extent appropriate and practicable, 

sensitive environmental areas and 

cultural heritage sites (FPA section 

216(a)(4)(G)). Commenters are 

encouraged to submit only non-sensitive 

information necessary to sufficiently 

inform potential NIETC designations 

and avoid submitting any potentially 

sensitive data. If DOE determines that 

additional information is needed to 

support NIETC designation, DOE will 

contact the commenter directly to 

request that data. 

For all of the previous topics, DOE 

encourages general recommendations 

and comments, which interested parties 

should submit under the docket number 

in which this notice has been posted, as 

well as recommendations and 

comments specific to the circumstances 

of individual potential NIETCs, which 

interested parties should submit under 

the relevant docket number: DOE–HQ– 

2024–0088-Potential Designation of the 

Tribal Energy Access National Interest 

Electric Transmission Corridor; DOE– 

HQ–2024–0089-Potential Designation of 

the Southwestern Grid Connector 

National Interest Electric Transmission 

Corridor; DOE–HQ–2024–0090-Potential 

Designation of the Lake Erie-Canada 

National Interest Electric Transmission 

Corridor.

notice must be received no later than 30 

days after the date of publication in the 

Federal Register. If no public comment 

is received during the period allowed

published in the Federal Register by 

FERC, the rescindment will become 

effective a minimum of 30 days after the 

date of publication in the Federal
