DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY 

Federal Energy Regulatory 

Commission 

[Docket No. CP21–467–000] 

Texas Gas Transmission, LLC; Notice 

of Scoping Period Requesting 

Comments on Environmental Issues 

for the Proposed Henderson County 

Expansion Project 

The staff of the Federal Energy 

Regulatory Commission (FERC or 

Commission) will prepare an 

environmental document that will 

discuss the environmental impacts of 

the Henderson County Expansion 

Project involving construction and 

operation of facilities by Texas Gas 

Transmission, LLC (Texas Gas) in 

Henderson and Webster Counties, 


khammond on DSKJM1Z7X2PROD with NOTICES
Federal Register / Vol. 86, No. 148 / Thursday, August 5, 2021 / Notices 42821 

Kentucky and Posey and Johnson 

Counties, Indiana. The Commission will 

use this environmental document in its 

decision-making process to determine 

whether the project is in the public 

convenience and necessity. 

This notice announces the opening of 

the scoping process the Commission 

will use to gather input from the public 

and interested agencies regarding the 

project. As part of the National 

Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) 

review process, the Commission takes 

into account concerns the public may 

have about proposals and the 

environmental impacts that could result 

from its action whenever it considers 

the issuance of a Certificate of Public 

Convenience and Necessity. This 

gathering of public input is referred to 

as ‘‘scoping.’’ The main goal of the 

scoping process is to focus the analysis 

in the environmental document on the 

important environmental issues. 

Additional information about the 

Commission’s NEPA process is 

described below in the NEPA Process 

and Environmental Document section of 

this notice. 

By this notice, the Commission 

requests public comments on the scope 

of issues to address in the 

environmental document. To ensure 

that your comments are timely and 

properly recorded, please submit your 

comments so that the Commission 

receives them in Washington, DC on or 

before 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time on 

August 30, 2021. Comments may be 

submitted in written form. Further 

details on how to submit comments are 

provided in the Public Participation 

section of this notice. 

Your comments should focus on the 

potential environmental effects, 

reasonable alternatives, and measures to 

avoid or lessen environmental impacts. 

Your input will help the Commission 

staff determine what issues they need to 

evaluate in the environmental 

document. Commission staff will 

consider all written comments during 

the preparation of the environmental 

document. 

If you submitted comments on this 

project to the Commission before the 

opening of this docket on June 25, 2021, 

you will need to file those comments in 

Docket No. CP21–467–000 to ensure 

they are considered as part of this 

proceeding. 

This notice is being sent to the 

Commission’s current environmental 

mailing list for this project. State and 

local government representatives should 

notify their constituents of this 

proposed project and encourage them to 

comment on their areas of concern. 

If you are a landowner receiving this 

notice, a pipeline company 

representative may contact you about 

the acquisition of an easement to 

construct, operate, and maintain the 

proposed facilities. The company would 

seek to negotiate a mutually acceptable 

easement agreement. You are not 

required to enter into an agreement. 

However, if the Commission approves 

the project, the Natural Gas Act conveys 

the right of eminent domain to the 

company. Therefore, if you and the 

company do not reach an easement 

agreement, the pipeline company could 

initiate condemnation proceedings in 

court. In such instances, compensation 

would be determined by a judge in 

accordance with state law. The 

Commission does not subsequently 

grant, exercise, or oversee the exercise 

of that eminent domain authority. The 

courts have exclusive authority to 

handle eminent domain cases; the 

Commission has no jurisdiction over 

these matters. 

Texas Gas provided landowners with 

a fact sheet prepared by the FERC 

entitled ‘‘An Interstate Natural Gas 

Facility On My Land? What Do I Need 

To Know?’’ which addresses typically 

asked questions, including the use of 

eminent domain and how to participate 

in the Commission’s proceedings. This 

fact sheet along with other landowner 

topics of interest are available for 

viewing on the FERC website 

(www.ferc.gov) under the Natural Gas 

Questions or Landowner Topics link.

Summary of the Proposed Project 

Texas Gas proposes to construct and 

operate a new lateral and meter and 

regulator (M&R) station, upgrade an 

existing M&R station, and add 

additional compression to and modify 

Texas Gas’ existing Slaughters 

Compressor Station. The Henderson 

County Expansion Project would 

provide up to 220 million standard 

cubic feet of natural gas per day to 

Southern Indiana Gas and Electric 

Company d/b/a CenterPoint Energy 

Indiana South (CenterPoint) at its AB 

Brown Generating Station in Posey 

County, Indiana. According to Texas 

Gas, its project would support 

CenterPoint’s retirement of four existing 

coal-fired units and implementation of 

new intermittent renewable resources 

(i.e., solar and wind) by providing the 

reliability of intermittent natural gas 

service during natural fluctuations in 

wind and solar availability. 

The Henderson County Expansion 

Project would consist of the following 

facilities: 

• Henderson County Lateral— 

Construction of an approximately 24- 

mile-long, 20-inch-diameter natural gas 

transmission pipeline extending from a 

new tie-in facility in Henderson County, 

Kentucky to the new AB Brown M&R 

Station in Posey County, Indiana. 

• AB Brown M&R Station and Point 

of Demarcation Site (Posey County, 

Indiana)—Construction of a delivery 

M&R station, receiver facility, and a

3The Council on Environmental Quality 

regulations addressing cooperating agency 

responsibilities are at Title 40, Code of Federal 

Regulations, Section 1501.8. 

4The Advisory Council on Historic Preservation’s 

regulations are at Title 36, Code of Federal 

Regulations, Part 800. Those regulations define 

historic properties as any prehistoric or historic 

district, site, building, structure, or object included 

in or eligible for inclusion in the National Register 

of Historic Places. 

0.08-mile-long, 16-inch-diameter 

interconnecting pipeline terminating at 

the new Point of Demarcation Site 

which would serve as CenterPoint’s tiein for project facilities for its AB Brown 

Plant. 

• Slaughters Compressor Station 

(Webster County, Kentucky)— 

Installation of a new 4,863-horsepower 

Solar Centaur 50 turbine compressor 

unit with piping modifications and 

other appurtenant facilities, 

abandonment in place of the existing 

Compressor Unit 5, and placement on 

standby of existing Compressor Units 6 

and 7. 

• New ancillary facilities including a 

main line valve and tie-in facility in 

Henderson County, Kentucky and 

upgrades to an existing M&R station in 

Johnson County, Indiana. 

The general location of the project 

facilities is shown in appendix 1.1

Land Requirements for Construction 

Construction of the proposed facilities 

would disturb about 402 acres of land 

for the aboveground facilities and the 

pipeline. Following construction, Texas 

Gas would maintain about 152 acres for 

permanent operation of the project’s 

facilities; the remaining acreage would 

be restored and revert to former uses. 

About 47.5 percent of the proposed 

pipeline route parallels existing 

pipeline, utility, or road rights-of-way. 

NEPA Process and the Environmental 

Document 

Any environmental document issued 

by the Commission will discuss impacts 

that could occur as a result of the 

construction and operation of the 

proposed project under the relevant 

general resource areas: 

• Geology and soils; 

• water resources and wetlands; 

• vegetation and wildlife; 

• threatened and endangered species; 

• cultural resources; 

• land use; 

• air quality and noise; and 

• reliability and safety. 

Commission staff will also evaluate 

reasonable alternatives to the proposed 

project or portions of the project and 

make recommendations on how to 

lessen or avoid impacts on the various 

resource areas. Your comments will 

help Commission staff identify and 

focus on the issues that might have an 

effect on the human environment and 

potentially eliminate other issues from 

further study and discussion in the 

environmental document. 

Following this scoping period, 

Commission staff will determine 

whether to prepare an Environmental 

Assessment (EA) or an Environmental 

Impact Statement (EIS). The EA or the 

EIS will present Commission staff’s 

independent analysis of the issues. If 

Commission staff prepares an EA, a 

Notice of Schedule for the Preparation 

of an Environmental Assessment will be 

issued. The EA may be issued for an 

allotted public comment period. The 

Commission would consider timely 

comments on the EA before making its 

decision regarding the proposed project. 

If Commission staff prepares an EIS, a 

Notice of Intent to Prepare an EIS/ 

Notice of Schedule will be issued, 

which will open up an additional 

comment period. Staff would then 

prepare a draft EIS which would be 

issued for public comment. Commission 

staff will consider all timely comments 

received during the comment period on 

the draft EIS and revise the document, 

as necessary, before issuing a final EIS. 

Any EA or draft and final EIS will be 

available in electronic format in the 

public record through eLibrary 2 and the 

Commission’s natural gas 

environmental documents web page 

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

natural-gas/environment/ 

environmental-documents). If 

eSubscribed, you will receive instant 

email notification when the 

environmental document is issued. 

With this notice, the Commission is 

asking agencies with jurisdiction by law 

and/or special expertise with respect to 

the environmental issues of this project 

to formally cooperate in the preparation 

of the environmental document.3

Agencies that would like to request 

cooperating agency status should follow 

the instructions for filing comments 

provided under the Public Participation 

section of this notice. 

Consultation Under Section 106 of the 

National Historic Preservation Act 

In accordance with the Advisory 

Council on Historic Preservation’s 

implementing regulations for section 

106 of the National Historic 

Preservation Act, the Commission is 

using this notice to initiate consultation 

with the applicable State Historic 

Preservation Office(s), and to solicit 

their views and those of other 

government agencies, interested Indian 

tribes, and the public on the project’s 

potential effects on historic properties.4

The environmental document for this 

project will document findings on the 

impacts on historic properties and 

summarize the status of consultations 

under section 106. 

Environmental Mailing List

157.205(e) of the Commission’s 

regulations,3 and must be submitted by 

the protest deadline, which is

serve as a motion to intervene so long 

as the protestor states it also seeks to be 

an intervenor. 

Interventions 

Any person has the option to file a 

motion to intervene in this proceeding. 

Only intervenors have the right to 

request rehearing of Commission orders 

issued in this proceeding and to 

subsequently challenge the 

Commission’s orders in the U.S. Circuit 

Courts of Appeal. 

To intervene, you must submit a 

motion to intervene to the Commission 

in accordance with Rule 214 of the 

Commission’s Rules of Practice and 

Procedure 4 and the regulations under 

the NGA 5 by the intervention deadline 

for the project, which is September 28, 

2021. As described further in Rule 214, 

your motion to intervene must state, to 

the extent known, your position 

regarding the proceeding, as well as 

your interest in the proceeding. For an 

individual, this could include your 

status as a landowner, ratepayer, 

resident of an impacted community, or 

recreationist. You do not need to have 

property directly impacted by the 

project in order to intervene. For more 

information about motions to intervene, 

refer to the FERC website at https://

www.ferc.gov/resources/guides/how-to/ 

intervene.asp. 

All timely, unopposed motions to 

intervene are automatically granted by 

operation of Rule 214(c)(1). Motions to 

intervene that are filed after the 

intervention deadline are untimely and 

may be denied. Any late-filed motion to 

intervene must show good cause for 

being late and must explain why the 

time limitation should be waived and 

provide justification by reference to 

factors set forth in Rule 214(d) of the 

Commission’s Rules and Regulations. A
