Take notice that on December 19, 

2014, Texas Eastern Transmission, LP 

(Texas Eastern), 5400 Westheimer Court,

Kentucky to accommodate a U. S. 

Department of Transportation (DOT) 

required pipeline class change, all as 

more fully set forth in the application, 

which is open to the public for

inch diameter pipe on Line No. 15, and 

658 feet of 30-inch diameter pipe and 

1,903 feet of 36-inch diameter pipe on

encroachment of new structures in the 

area of the applicable sections of 

pipeline. The project will allow Texas 

Eastern to continue the safe operation of 

its system and to comply with DOT 

pipeline class requirements. 

Any person or the Commission’s staff 

may, within 60 days after issuance of 

the instant notice by the Commission, 

file pursuant to Rule 214 of the 

Commission’s Procedural Rules (18 CFR 

385.214) a motion to intervene or notice 

of intervention and pursuant to Section 

157.205 of the regulations under the 

NGA (18 CFR 157.205), a protest to the 

request. If no protest is filed within the 

time allowed therefore, the proposed 

activity shall be deemed to be 

authorized effective the day after the 

time allowed for filing a protest. If a 

protest is filed and not withdrawn 

within 30 days after the allowed time 

for filing a protest, the instant request 

shall be treated as an application for 

authorization pursuant to section 7 of 

the NGA. 

Pursuant to section 157.9 of the 

Commission’s rules, 18 CFR 157.9, 

within 90 days of this Notice the 

Commission staff will either: complete 

its environmental assessment (EA) and 

place it into the Commission’s public

Schedule for Environmental Review is 

issued, it will indicate, among other 

milestones, the anticipated date for the

environmental impact statement (FEIS) 

or EA for this proposal. The filing of the 

EA in the Commission’s public record 

for this proceeding or the issuance of a 

Notice of Schedule for Environmental 

Review will serve to notify federal and 

state agencies of the timing for the 

completion of all necessary reviews, and 

the subsequent need to complete all 

federal authorizations within 90 days of 

the date of issuance of the Commission 

staff’s FEIS or EA. 

Persons who wish to comment only

AGENCY: Environmental Protection

V of the Clean Air Act (Act), the 

Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) 

issued a federal operating permit 

renewal to the Mille Lacs Band

Minnesota. The operating permit 

authorizes the operation of four dieselfired generators used for backup power 

and peak load management and of one 

diesel-fired emergency generator. 

ADDRESSES: The final signed permit is 

available for public inspection online at

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Throughout this document whenever 

‘‘we,’’ ‘‘us,’’ or ‘‘our’’ is used, we mean 

EPA. 

A. What Is the Background 

Information? 

The Mille Lacs Band Corporate 

Commissions owns and operates Grand 

Casino Mille Lacs, which is located on 

lands held in trust for the Mille Lacs 

Band of Ojibwe Indians in Onamia, 

Minnesota. Emission units at Grand 

Casino Mille Lacs consist of five dieselfired generators. Four diesel-fired 

generators are used for backup power 

and peak load management operations 

and one diesel-fired generator is used 

for emergency backup power generation. 

On February 24, 2014, the Mille Lacs 

Band Corporate Commission submitted 

an operating permit renewal application 

pursuant to 40 CFR part 71. On April 9, 

2014, EPA determined that the 

submitted application was timely and 

complete and, therefore, granted an 

application shield pursuant to 40 CFR 

71.7(b). The application shield allowed 

the facility to continue to operate 

pursuant to the terms and conditions of 

its expiring operating permit without 

violating the Act’s prohibition on 

operation without a permit, until EPA 

took final action on the permit renewal 

application. 

On July 11, 2014, EPA requested 

additional information required to make 

a final decision on the permit 

application. The Mille Lacs Band 

Corporate Commission submitted its 

response to the request for additional 

information on August 4, 2014. 

On October 24, 2014, EPA issued a 

draft renewal permit for public 

comment pursuant to 40 CFR 71.11(d). 

The public comment period ended on 

November 24, 2014. EPA did not receive 

any comments regarding the proposal to 

renew the permit. 

EPA issued the final permit for Grand 

Casino Mille Lacs, permit number V– 

ML–2709500005–2014–10, on December 

5, 2014. Pursuant to 40 CFR 

71.11(i)(2)(iii), the permit became 

effective immediately upon issuance 

since EPA did not receive any 

comments requesting a change in the 

draft permit. 

B. Appeal of the Permit 

Pursuant to 40 CFR 71.11(l), because 

no one filed comments on the proposed 

permit renewal and the final permit is 

identical to the permit as proposed, any 

person may petition for administrative 

review of the permit only to the extent 

that grounds for a petition have arisen 

that were not reasonably foreseeable 

during the public comment period on 

the draft permit. The 30-day period 

during which a person may seek review 

under 40 CFR 71.11(l) began on 

December 10, 2014, the date on which 

EPA notified the Mille Lacs Band 

Corporate Commission of issuance of 

the permit. 

C. What Is the Purpose of This Notice? 

EPA is notifying the public of the 

issuance of a title V operating permit 

renewal, permit number V–ML– 

2709500005–2014–10, issued on 

December 5, 2014, to the Mille Lacs 

Band Corporate Commission for the 

Grand Casino Mille Lacs. The permit 

became effective on December 5, 2014. 

Authority: 42 U.S.C. 7401 et seq. 

Dated: December 30, 2014.

Regional Administrator, Region 5.
