Commission 

[Docket No. CP15–527–000] 

Transcontinental Gas Pipe Line 

Company, LLC; Notice of Schedule for 

Environmental Review of the New York 

Bay Expansion Project 

On July 8, 2015, Transcontinental Gas 

Pipe Line Company, LLC (Transco) filed 

an application in Docket No. CP15–527– 

000 requesting a Certificate of Public 

Convenience and Necessity pursuant to 

Section 7(c) of the Natural Gas Act to 

construct and operate certain natural gas 

pipeline facilities. The proposed project 

is known as the New York Bay 

Expansion Project (Project), and would 

modify existing facilities and replace 

existing pipeline to provide an 

additional 115,000 dekatherms per day 

of firm transportation service to 

National Grid New York to meet 2017– 

2018 winter heating season needs. 

On July 21, 2015, the Federal Energy 

Regulatory Commission (Commission or 

FERC) issued its Notice of Application 

for the Project. Among other things, that 

notice alerted agencies issuing federal 

authorizations of the requirement to 

complete all necessary reviews and to 

reach a final decision on a request for 

a federal authorization within 90 days of 

the date of issuance of the Commission 

staff’s Environmental Assessment (EA) 

for the Project. This instant notice 

identifies the FERC staff’s planned 

schedule for the completion of the EA 

for the Project. 

SCHEDULE FOR ENVIRONMENTAL

REVIEW

Issuance of EA .................. April 4, 2016. 

90-day Federal Authorization Decision Deadline.July 3, 2016. 

If a schedule change becomes 

necessary, additional notice will be 

provided so that the relevant agencies 

are kept informed of the Project’s 

progress. 

Project Description 

The Project would involve the 

following activities at existing 

aboveground facilities in the specified 

towns and municipalities: 

• Uprate Compressor Station 200 

from 30,860 horsepower (hp) to 33,000 

hp (East Whiteland Township, Chester, 

Pennsylvania); 

• uprate a unit of Compressor Station 

303 from 25,000 hp to 27,500 hp 

(Roseland Borough, Essex, New Jersey); 

• add 11,000 hp of electric-driven 

compression to Compressor Station 207 

(Old Bridge Township, Middlesex, New 

Jersey); and 

• install various appurtenances and 

modifications at three meter and 

regulation stations in East Brandywine 

Township (Chester, Pennsylvania), 

Sayreville Borough (Middlesex, New 

Jersey), and Staten Island Borough 

(Richmond, New York). 

In addition, Transco proposes to 

replace three segments of its 42-inchdiameter Lower New York Bay Lateral 

pipeline, totaling 0.25 mile, and uprate 

the lateral pipeline’s operating pressure 

from 960 to 1000 pounds per square 

inch in Middlesex County, New Jersey. 

Background 

On October 8, 2015, the Commission 

issued a Notice of Intent to Prepare an 

Environmental Assessment for the 

Proposed New York Bay Expansion 

Project and Request for Comments on 

Environmental Issues (NOI). The NOI 

was sent to affected landowners; federal, 

state, and local government agencies; 

elected officials; environmental and 

public interest groups; Native American 

tribes; other interested parties; and local 

libraries and newspapers. In response to 

the NOI, the Commission received 

comments from the New Jersey 

Department of Environmental 

Protection, the New Jersey State Historic 

Preservation Office, the Pennsylvania 

Department of Environmental 

Protection, and two citizens. The 

primary issues raised by the 

commentors are general comments for 

natural gas transmission projects in each 

state, specific questions for Transco 

regarding the operation of the facilities, 

and concerns about possible system 

alternatives. 

Additional Information 

In order to receive notification of the 

issuance of the EA and to keep track of 

all formal issuances and submittals in 

specific dockets, the Commission offers 

a free service called eSubscription. This 

can reduce the amount of time you 

spend researching proceedings by 

automatically providing you with 

notification of these filings, document 

summaries, and direct links to the 

documents. Go to www.ferc.gov/docsfiling/esubscription.asp. 

Additional information about the 

Project is available from the 

Commission’s Office of External Affairs 

at (866) 208–FERC or on the FERC Web 

site (www.ferc.gov). Using the 

‘‘eLibrary’’ link, select ‘‘General Search’’ 

from the eLibrary menu, enter the 

selected date range and ‘‘Docket 

Number’’ excluding the last three digits 

(i.e., CP15–527), and follow the 

instructions. For assistance with access 

to eLibrary, the helpline can be reached 

at (866) 208–3676, TTY (202) 502–8659, 

or at FERCOnlineSupport@ferc.gov. The 

eLibrary link on the FERC Web site also 

provides access to the texts of formal 

documents issued by the Commission, 

such as orders, notices, and rule 

makings.
