[Docket No. CP21-463-000]


Texas Eastern Transmission, LP; Notice of Availability of the 
Environmental Assessment for the Proposed Holbrook Compressor Station 
Units Replacement Project

    The staff of the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC or 
Commission) has prepared an environmental assessment (EA) for the 
Holbrook Compressor Station Units Replacement Project (Project), 
proposed by Texas Eastern Transmission LP (Texas Eastern) in the above-
referenced docket. Texas Eastern requests authorization to abandon 12 
existing reciprocating compressor units dating from the 1950s and 
replace them with 2 new compressor units at its existing Holbrook 
Compressor Station (Station), in Greene County, Pennsylvania.

[[Page 30220]]

    The EA assesses the potential environmental effects of the 
construction and operation of the Project in accordance with the 
requirements of the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA). The FERC 
staff concludes that approval of the Project would result in some 
adverse environmental impacts. However, if the Project is constructed 
and operated in accordance with the mitigation measures discussed in 
this EA, and our recommendations, approval of the proposed Project 
would not constitute a major federal action significantly affecting the 
quality of the human environment.
    The Commission mailed a copy of the Notice of Availability for this 
EA to federal, state, and local government representatives and 
agencies; elected officials; non-governmental organizations, 
environmental, and public interest groups; potentially interested 
Indian tribes; affected landowners; and newspapers and libraries in the 
project area. The EA 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 EA may be accessed by using the eLibrary link on the 
FERC's website. Click on the eLibrary link (https://elibrary.ferc.gov/eLibrary/search), select ``General Search'' and enter the docket number 
in the ``Docket Number'' field, (i.e., CP21-463). Be sure you have

independent analysis of the environmental issues for the Commission to 
consider when addressing the merits of all issues in this proceeding.
    Any person wishing to comment on the EA may do so. Your comments 
should focus on the EA's disclosure and discussion of potential 
environmental effects, reasonable alternatives, and measures to avoid 
or lessen environmental impacts. The more specific your comments, the 
more useful they will be. To ensure consideration of your comments, it 
is important that the Commission receive your comments on or before 
5:00 p.m. Eastern Time on June 13, 2022.
    For your convenience, there are three methods you can use to file

the Commission's decision. At this point in this proceeding, the 
timeframe for filing timely intervention requests has expired. Any 
person seeking to become a party to the proceeding must file a motion 
to intervene out-of-time pursuant to Rule 214(b)(3) and (d) of the 
Commission's Rules of Practice and Procedures (18 CFR 385.214(b)(3) and 
(d)) and show good cause why the time limitation should be waived.

Commission's Office of External Affairs, at (866) 208-FERC, or on the 
FERC website (www.ferc.gov) using the eLibrary link. The eLibrary link

Commission, such as orders, notices, and rulemakings.
