Algonquin Gas Transmission Co.;

Notice of Availability of an

Environmental Assessment for the

Proposed Canal Lateral Project and

Request for Comments on

Environmental Issues

January 10, 1995.

The staff of the Federal Energy

Regulatory Commission (FERC or

Commission) has prepared an

environmental assessment (EA) on the

natural gas pipeline facilities proposed

by Algonquin Gas Transmission

Company (Algonquin) in the abovereferenced docket. The Canal Lateral

Project would be used to deliver up to

75,000 MMBtu per day of natural gas to

Canal Electric Company and Montaup

Electric Company, joint owners of Unit

No. 2 at the Canal Electric Power Plant

in Sandwich, Massachusetts.

The EA was prepared to satisfy the

requirements of the National

Environmental Policy Act. The U.S.

Army Corps of Engineers, New England

Division was a cooperating agency in

the preparation of this EA.

The EA assesses the potential

environmental effects of the

construction and operation of the

following facilities in Barnstable

County, Massachusetts:

• 4.0 miles of pipeline lateral; and

• one new meter station and one new

valve, and modification of one existing

valve.

The staff recommends use of the

proposed route with a variation at the

Herring River crossing. The staff

concludes that approval of the proposed

project, with appropriate mitigating

measures, would not constitute a major

Federal action significantly affecting the

quality of the human environment.

The EA has been placed in the public

files of the FERC and is available for

public inspection at: Federal Energy

Regulatory Commission, Division of

Public Information, 941 North Capitol

Street NE., Room 3104, Washington, DC

20426, (202) 208–1371.

Copies of the EA have been mailed to

Federal, state and local agencies, public

interest groups, interested individuals,

newspapers, and parties to this

proceeding.

A limited number of copies of the EA

are available from: Mr. Jeff Shenot,

Environmental Project Manager,

Environmental Review and Compliance

Branch II, Office of Pipeline Regulation,

Room 7312, 825 North Capitol Street

NE., Washington, DC 20426, (202) 219–

0295.

Any person wishing to comment on

the EA may do so. Written comments

must reference Docket No. CP94–260–

000, and must be addressed to: Office of

the Secretary, Federal Energy Regulatory

Commission, 825 North Capitol Street

NE., Washington, D.C. 20426.

Comments should be filed as soon as

possible, but must be received no later

than February 9, 1995 to ensure

consideration before a Commission

decision on this proposal. A copy of any

comments should also be sent to Mr. Jeff

Shenot, Environmental Project Manager.

Comments will be considered by the

Commission but will not serve to make

the commentor a party to the

proceeding. Any person seeking to

become a party to the proceeding must

file a motion to intervene pursuant to

Rule 214 of the Commission’s Rules of

Practice and Procedure (18 CFR

385.214).

The date for filing timely motions to

intervene in this proceeding has passed.

Therefore, parties now seeking to file

late interventions must show good

cause, as required by Section

385.214(b)(3), why this time limitation

should be waived. Environmental issues

have been viewed as good cause for late

intervention. You do not need

intervenor status to have your

comments considered.

Additional information about this

project is available from Mr. Jeff Shenot,

Environmental Review and Compliance

Branch II, Office of Pipeline Regulation,
