written comments, data, and 

information no later than July 1, 2022. 

DOE received separate requests from 

Holland & Knight LLP; Piedmont 

Lithium, Inc.; Mitsubishi Power 

Americas, Inc.; and American Clean 

Power Association for an extension of 

the public comment period for an 

additional 30 days. DOE has reviewed 

these requests and is granting an 

extension of the public comment period 

to allow comments to be submitted no 

later than August 1, 2022. 

DATES: The comment period for the RFI 

published on June 1, 2022 (87 FR 33141)

1 Consideration of Greenhouse Gas Emissions in 

Natural Gas Infrastructure Project Reviews, 178 

FERC ¶ 61,108 (2022); 178 FERC ¶ 61,197 (2022).

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On June 1, 

2022, DOE published an RFI initiating a 

review to consider whether to amend 

DOE’s Title XVII Rule at 10 CFR part 

609. 87 FR 33141. In the RFI, DOE 

identified certain programmatic and 

procedural issues on which it is 

interested in receiving comment. These 

issues include the scope and application 

of statutory amendments under the 

Energy Act of 2020 and the IIJA, 

facilitation of new or different projects 

and financing structures, and other 

potential improvements to the Title 

XVII Loan Guarantee Program. The RFI 

set a comment period deadline of July 

1, 2022. 

Several interested parties requested a 

30-day extension of the public comment 

period to help investigate the request 

and respond appropriately with 

considered comments. For example, 

these parties referred to the diversity of 

topics covered in the RFI and the 

potential impacts that the RFI process 

will have on DOE’s implementation of 

the Title XVII Loan Guarantee Program. 

DOE anticipates that extending the 

public comment period will enable 

additional stakeholders to submit 

valuable comments in response to the 

RFI. 

DOE has determined that an extension 

of the public comment period is 

appropriate to allow interested parties 

additional time to submit comments for 

DOE’s consideration. Thus, DOE is 

extending the comment period through 

August 1, 2022.

BILLING CODE 6450–01–P 

DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY 

Federal Energy Regulatory 

Commission 

[Docket Nos. CP21–1–000; CP21–458–000] 

Golden Pass Pipeline, LLC; Notice of 

Availability of the Final Environmental 

Impact Statement for the Proposed 

Mp66–69 Compressor Relocation and 

Modification Amendment and the Mp33 

Compressor Station Modification 

Amendment Project 

The staff of the Federal Energy 

Regulatory Commission (FERC or 

Commission) has prepared a final 

environmental impact statement (EIS) 

for the MP66–69 Compression 

Relocation and Modification 

Amendment and the MP33 Compressor 

Station Modification Amendment 

Project (Project), proposed by Golden 

Pass Pipeline, LLC (Golden Pass), in the 

above referenced dockets. Golden Pass 

requests authorization to amend its 

certificate of public convenience and 

necessity for the Pipeline Expansion 

Project (Docket No. CP14–518–000) that 

was issued by the Commission on 

December 21, 2016. Golden Pass 

requests authorization to modify the 

previously authorized facilities in 

Calcasieu Parish, Louisiana and Orange 

County, Texas. 

The final EIS 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 proposed Project, with the 

mitigation measures recommended in 

this EIS, would not result in significant 

environmental impacts, with the 

exception of climate change impacts. 

The EIS does not characterize the 

Project’s greenhouse gas emissions as 

significant or insignificant because the 

Commission is conducting a generic 

proceeding to determine whether and 

how the Commission will conduct 

climate change significance 

determinations going forward.1

The final EIS incorporates by 

reference the Commission staff’s July 

2016 Final Environmental Impact 

Statement (FEIS) issued in Docket Nos. 

CP14–517–000 and CP14–518–000 for 

the Golden Pass LNG Export Project 

(2016 FEIS) and the Commission’s 

findings and conclusions in its 

December 21, 2016 Order. The final EIS 

addresses the potential environmental 

effects of the construction and operation 

of the following Project facilities: 

CP21–1–000 (Calcasieu Parish, 

Louisiana) 

• relocate the approved Compressor 

Station at Milepost (MP) 66 

approximately three miles, to MP69; 

• increase the amount of compression 

at the relocated compressor station; 

• eliminate approved modifications 

to interconnects at MP63 and MP66; 

• minor changes to approved 

interconnect modifications at MP68; 

and 

• eliminate the previously approved 3 

miles of 24-inch-diameter pipeline loop 

between MP66 and MP69. 

CP21–458–000 (Orange County, Texas) 

• relocate the MP33 Compressor 

Station approximately fifty feet northnorthwest to avoid an existing pipeline 

right-of-way based on a landowner 

request; 

• increase the authorized 

compression at the MP33 Compressor 

Station; 

• construct three new interconnects 

and appurtenant facilities adjacent to 

the MP33 Compressor Station; and 

• eliminate receipt stations at the 

existing Texoma delivery interconnect 

on Golden Pass’s existing system at 

MP33. 

The Commission mailed a copy of the 

Notice of Availability of the Final 

Environmental Impact Statement for the 

MP66–69 Compression Relocation and 

Modification Amendment and the MP33 

Compressor Station Modification 

Amendment Project to federal, state, 

and local government representatives 

and agencies; elected officials; 

environmental and public interest 

groups; Native American tribes; 

potentially affected landowners and 

other interested individuals and groups; 

and newspapers and libraries in the 

Project area. The final EIS 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/industriesdata/natural-gas/environment/

environmental-documents). In addition, 

the final EIS may be accessed by using 

the eLibrary link on the FERC’s website.
