DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR

Minerals Management Service

Preparation of an Environmental

Assessment for TotalFinaElf

Exploration and Production USA, Inc.’s

(TotalFinaElf) and Williams Field

Services—Gulf Coast Company, L.P.

(Williams) Pipeline and Platform

Applications (Canyon Express and

Canyon Station Pipeline Applications)

AGENCY: Minerals Management Service,

Interior.

ACTION: Preparation of an environmental

assessment.

SUMMARY: The Minerals Management

Service (MMS) is preparing an

environmental assessment (EA) for a

proposed deepwater development plan

to develop and produce hydrocarbon

reserves about 70 miles offshore

Louisiana and 107 miles directly south

of Alabama in Mississippi Canyon Block

348 (Camden Hills Prospect),

Mississippi Canyon Block 305

(Aconcagua Prospect), and DeSoto

Canyon Blocks 133 and 177 (Kings Peak

Prospect; in Eastern Planning Area).

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:

Minerals Management Service, Gulf of

Mexico OCS Region, 1201 Elmwood

Park Boulevard, New Orleans, Louisiana

70123–2394, Mr. Alvin Jones, telephone

(504) 736–1713.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This EA

implements the tiering process outlined

in 40 CFR 1502.20, which encourages

agencies to tier environmental

documents, eliminating repetitive

discussions of the same issue. By use of

tiering to the most recent final

environmental impact statement (EIS)

for the Gulf of Mexico Central Planning

Area for Lease Sales 169, 172, 175, 178,

and 182 and by referencing related

environmental documents, this EA

concentrates on environmental issues

specific to the proposed action.

The MMS GOM Region received a

Pipeline Right-of-Way (ROW)

Application that proposes to construct,

maintain, operate, and transport

hydrocarbon reserves located in

Mississippi Canyon Blocks 348, 305,

and 217 and DeSoto Canyon Blocks 133

and 177. The Region also received a

Right-of-Use and Easement Application

for a hydrocarbon processing platform,

which will receive production from the

Camden Hills, Aconcagua, and Kings

Peak Prospects and four exporting lines

in Main Pass Block 261. The combined

Applications are referred to as the

Canyon Express/Station Pipeline

Project. TotalFinaElf will complete and

produce 10 wells that were drilled

under previously approved Exploration

Plans for the subject blocks. Williams’

proposed platform would receive those

hydrocarbon resources and export to

existing pipelines. No new drilling

operations are proposed as a part of this

project.

The Canyon Express portion, a ROW

Application consists of 28 ROW and

lease-term pipeline segments. The

lengths of pipeline segments range from

60 feet to over 55 miles. The water

depth ranges from 7,216 feet in

Mississippi Canyon Block 348 to 299

feet at the platform (‘‘JP’’) in Main Pass

Block 261. Portions of the proposed

Canyon Express pipelines are in

(adjacent to the western flank of) the

Eastern Planning Area. TotalFinaElf will

use a support base located in Fourchon,

Louisiana, to support pipelaying

activities associated with the Canyon

Express Project.

Condensate and gas produced at the

Camden Hills, Aconcagua, and Kings

Peak Prospects will be transported to

the proposed Platform in Main Pass

Block 261.

The Canyon Station portion, a Rightof-Use and Easement Application

consists of a processing platform and

four exporting pipelines all within the

Central Planning Area. The water depth

of the four departing pipelines range

from 282 to 307 feet. The average length

of the four exporting pipelines is 1.12

miles. The four exporting pipelines will

terminate at subsea tie-in points on

existing pipelines within Main Pass

Block 261. Williams will initially use a

support base in Venice, Louisiana, and

switch operations to Mobile, Alabama,

once production commences.

The proposed action analyzed in the

EA will be the development plan as

proposed by TotalFinaElf and Williams.

Alternatives will include the proposed

action with additional mitigations and

no action (i.e., disapproval of the plan).

The analyses in the EA will examine the

potential environmental effects of the

proposal and alternatives.

Public Comments

The MMS requests interested parties

to submit comments regarding issues

that should be addressed in the EA to

Mexico OCS Region, Office of Leasing
