24842 Federal Register / Vol. 74, No. 99 / Tuesday, May 26, 2009 / Notices 

The EA was prepared to satisfy the 

requirements of the National 

Environmental Policy Act (NEPA). The 

FERC staff concludes that approval of 

the proposed project, with appropriate 

mitigating measures, would not 

constitute a major Federal action 

significantly affecting the quality of the 

human environment. 

The FERC is the lead agency for the 

preparation of the EA. The United States 

Environmental Protection Agency is a 

cooperating agency for the development 

of the EA. A cooperating agency has 

jurisdiction by law or special expertise 

with respect to the proposed action and 

participates in the NEPA analysis. 

The EA assesses the potential 

environmental effects of the 

construction and operation of the 

proposed Wisconsin 2009 Expansion 

Project that includes the following 

facilities in Wisconsin: 

• Construction of about 8.9 miles of 

30-inch-diameter pipeline loop 

(Janesville Loop) in Rock County; 

• Relocation of an existing pig 

receiver and appurtenances to the 

existing Janesville Compressor Station 

in Rock County; 

• Installation of a new control valve 

at the existing Marshfield Compressor 

Station in Wood County, and Fairwater 

Meter Station in Columbia County; and 

• Upgrading the existing Marshfield, 

North Wausau, and Randolph Meter 

Stations in Wood, Marathon, and 

Columbia Counties, respectively. 

According to ANR, the purpose of the 

project is to accommodate the growing 

demand for natural gas on ANR’s system 

and provide about 97,880,000 

dekatherms per day of incremental firm 

capacity. 

The EA has been placed in the public 

files of the FERC. A limited number of 

copies of the EA are available for 

distribution and public inspection at: 

Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, 

Public Reference Room, 888 First Street, 

NE., Room 2A, Washington, DC 20426, 

(202) 502–8371. 

Copies of the EA have been mailed to 

federal, state, and local agencies, public 

interest groups, interested individuals, 

newspapers and libraries in the project 

area, and parties to this proceeding. Any 

person wishing to comment on the EA 

may do so. To ensure consideration 

prior to a Commission decision on the 

proposal, it is important that we receive

(BLM), the U.S. Forest Service (FS), and 

Bureau of Reclamation (Reclamation) 

will prepare an environmental impact 

statement (EIS) that will discuss the 

environmental impacts that could result 

from the construction and operation of 

the Apex Expansion Project. The FERC 

is the lead federal agency for the 

preparation of the EIS, and the EIS will 

be used by the Commission in its 

decision making process to determine 

whether the project is in the public 

convenience and necessity. The project 

would involve Kern River Gas 

Transmission Company’s (Kern River) 

planned construction and operation of a 

new natural gas pipeline in Morgan, 

Davis, and Salt Lake Counties, Utah. 

This Notice of Intent (NOI) announces 

the opening of the scoping process used 

to gather input from the public and 

interested agencies on the project. Your 

input will help the Commission staff 

and cooperating agencies determine 

which issues need to be evaluated in the 

EIS. Please note that the scoping period 

will close on June 15, 2009. 

Comments may be submitted in 

written or verbal form. Further details 

on how to submit written comments are 

provided in the Public Participation 

section of this notice. In lieu of or in 

addition to sending written comments, 

we invite you to attend the public 

scoping meetings scheduled as follows. 

Date and time Location 

June 9, 2009 7 p.m. local time ................................................................. Bountiful High School Auditorium, 695 S. Orchard Dr., Bountiful, UT 

84010. 

June 10, 2009 7 p.m. local time ............................................................... Morgan County Courthouse Auditorium, 48 West Young Street, Morgan, UT 84050. 

Interested groups and individuals are 

encouraged to attend the meetings and 

to present comments on the 

environmental issues they believe 

should be addressed in the EIS. A 

transcript of the meeting will be 

generated so that your comments will be 

accurately recorded. 

This notice is being sent to the 

Commission’s current environmental 

mailing list for this project, which 

includes: affected landowners; federal, 

state, and local government 

representatives and agencies; elected 

officials; environmental and public 

interest groups; Native American tribes; 

other interested parties in this 

proceeding; and local libraries and 

newspapers. We 1 encourage state and 

local government representatives to 

notify their constituents of the planned 

project and encourage them to comment 

on their areas of concern. 

If you are a landowner receiving this 

notice, you may be contacted by a 

pipeline company representative about 

the acquisition of an easement to 

construct, operate, and maintain the 

planned facilities. The pipeline 

company would seek to negotiate a 

mutually acceptable agreement. 

However, if the project is approved by 

the Commission, that approval conveys 

with it the right of eminent domain. 

Therefore, if easement negotiations fail 

to produce an agreement, the pipeline 

company could initiate condemnation 

proceedings in accordance with state 

law. 

A fact sheet prepared by the FERC 

entitled ‘‘An Interstate Natural Gas 

Facility On My Land? What Do I Need 

To Know?’’ is available for viewing on 

the FERC Internet Web site (http:// 

www.ferc.gov). This fact sheet addresses 

a number of typically asked questions, 

including the use of eminent domain 

and how to participate in the 

Commission’s proceedings. 

Summary of the Proposed Project 

Kern River has announced its plans to 

construct and operate approximately 29 

miles of new 36-inch-diameter natural 

gas pipeline loop 2 in Morgan, Davis, 

and Salt Lake Counties, Utah (known as 

the Wasatch Loop). The planned Apex 

Expansion Project would also include: 

• Construction of a new compressor 

station in Beaver County, Utah (Milford 

Compressor Station); 

• Replacement of a compressor unit 

at the Fillmore Compressor Station in 

Millard County, Utah; and 

• Additional compression at the 

following existing compressor stations, 

totaling 78,000 horsepower: 

• Coyote Creek Compressor Station in 

Uinta County, Wyoming; 

• Elberta Compressor Station in Utah 

County, Utah; and 

• Dry Lake Compressor Station in 

Clark County, Nevada. 

Location maps depicting the planned 

facilities are attached to this NOI as 

Appendix 1.3

Kern River is also considering an 

alternative pipeline route which would 

follow the planned route through the FS 

Ward Canyon utility corridor to 

Bountiful City where it would turn 

south onto Bountiful Boulevard for 

approximately 6 miles before rejoining 

the existing Kern River pipeline, 

thereafter following the planned route. 

Land Requirements for Construction 

Construction of the Apex Expansion 

Project would require about 356 acres of 

land for the pipeline. Following 

construction, about 178 acres would be 

used for the operation of the pipeline. 

The construction and operation of the 

Milford Compressor Station would 

require 30 acres on BLM land, and the 

upgrades and replacement activities at 

the existing compressor stations would 

require 20 acres on land already owned/ 

leased by Kern River (The Dry Lake 

Compressor Station is also on land 

owned by the BLM). The area disturbed 

during construction but not required for 

operation would generally be allowed to 

revert to pre-construction condition. 

The planned Wasatch Loop, some of 

which crosses land under the 

jurisdiction of the FS in the UintaWasatch-Cache National Forest, would 

be located within and directly adjacent 

to the existing Kern River right-of-way. 

Kern River plans to align the loop with 

a typical offset of 35 feet from the 

existing pipeline to the extent 

practicable. The planned modifications 

to the four existing compressor stations 

would occur within the existing fence 

line of those facilities. 

The EIS Process 

The National Environmental Policy 

Act (NEPA) requires the Commission to 

take into account the environmental 

impacts that could result from an action 

whenever it considers the issuance of a 

Certificate of Public Convenience and 

24844 Federal Register / Vol. 74, No. 99 / Tuesday, May 26, 2009 / Notices 

Necessity. NEPA also requires us to 

discover and address concerns the 

public may have about proposals. This 

process is referred to as ‘‘scoping.’’ The 

main goal of the scoping process is to 

focus the analysis in the EIS on the 

important environmental issues. By this 

NOI, the Commission staff requests 

public comments on the scope of the 

issues to address in the EIS. All 

comments received will be considered 

during the preparation of the EIS. 

In the EIS we will discuss impacts 

that could occur as a result of the 

construction and operation of the 

planned project under these general 

headings: 

• Geology and soils; 

• Land use; 

• Water resources, fisheries, and 

wetlands; 

• Cultural resources; 

• Vegetation and wildlife; 

• Air quality and noise; 

• Endangered and threatened species; 

and 

• Public safety. 

We will also evaluate possible 

alternatives to the planned project or 

portions of the project, and make 

recommendations on how to lessen or 

avoid impacts on the various resource 

areas. 

Although no formal application has 

been filed, we have already initiated our 

NEPA review under the Commission’s 

Pre-Filing Process. The purpose of the 

Pre-Filing Process is to encourage early 

involvement of interested stakeholders 

and to identify and resolve issues before 

an application is filed with the FERC. 

As part of our Pre-Filing Process review, 

we have begun to contact some federal 

and state agencies to discuss their 

involvement in the scoping process and 

the preparation of the EIS. In addition, 

representatives from the FERC 

participated in public open houses 

sponsored by Kern River in the project 

area in March 2009, to explain the 

environmental review process to 

interested stakeholders. 

The planned Milford Compressor 

Station and associated access road and 

the Dry Lake Compressor Station would 

be located on federal lands for which 

the BLM has jurisdiction and/or special 

expertise with respect to environmental 

issues/impacts. The planned Wasatch 

Loop would cross federal lands under 

FS jurisdiction in the Uinta-WasatchCache National Forest for which the FS 

would require a plan amendment to the 

2003 Forest Plan. The planned route 

and the alternative route along 

Bountiful Boulevard would also cross 

federal lands under Reclamation 

jurisdiction. Kern River would seek a 

right-of-way grant amendment from the 

BLM for all federal lands crossed by the 

Project. 

Our independent analysis of the 

issues will be included in a draft EIS. 

The draft EIS will be mailed to federal, 

state, and local government agencies; 

elected officials; affected landowners; 

environmental and public interest 

groups; Indian tribes and regional 

Native American organizations; 

commentors; other interested parties; 

local libraries and newspapers; and the 

FERC’s official service list for this 

proceeding. A 45-day comment period 

will be allotted for review of the draft 

EIS and the proposed plan amendment. 

We will consider all timely comments 

on the draft EIS and revise the 

document, as necessary, before issuing a 

final EIS. To ensure that your comments 

are considered, please carefully follow 

the instructions in the Public 

Participation section of this NOI. 

With this NOI, we are asking any 

other federal, state, and local agencies 

with jurisdiction and/or special 

expertise with respect to environmental 

issues to formally cooperate with us in 

the preparation of the EIS. These 

agencies may choose to participate once 

they have evaluated the proposal 

relative to their responsibilities. 

Additional agencies that would like to 

request cooperating agency status 

should follow the instructions for filing 

comments provided under the Public 

Participation section of this NOI. 

Currently, the BLM, FS, and 

Reclamation have expressed their 

intention to participate as cooperating 

agencies in the preparation of the EIS to 

satisfy their NEPA responsibilities for 

the portion of the Project on Federal 

lands. 

Currently Identified Environmental 

Issues 

We have already identified several 

issues that we think deserve attention 

based on a preliminary review of the 

planned facilities, comments made to us 

at Kern River’s open houses, 

preliminary consultations with other 

agencies, and the environmental 

information provided by Kern River. 

This preliminary list of issues may be 

changed based on your comments and 

our analysis: 

• Disturbance to residents along 

pipeline construction route, including 

noise and aesthetics; 

• Impacts to the viewshed from 

construction activities and placement of 

aboveground facilities; 

• Potential for geological hazards, 

including seismic activity, to have 

impacts on the pipeline; 

• Impacts of the pipeline on cultural 

resources, including paleontological 

resources and historic trails; 

• Impacts of the pipeline on 

recreation and scenic resources; and 

• Possible disturbance to residents 

and impacts to the viewshed from 

construction activities on the alternative 

route along Bountiful Boulevard. 

Public Participation 

You can make a difference by 

providing us with your specific 

comments or concerns about the Apex 

Expansion Project. Your comments 

should focus on the potential 

environmental effects, reasonable

DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY 

Federal Energy Regulatory 

Commission 

[Docket No. CP09–58–000] 

Rockies Express Pipeline LLC; Notice 

of Availability of the Environmental 

Assessment for the Proposed Meeker 

to Cheyenne Expansion Project 

May 18, 2009. 

The staff of the Federal Energy 

Regulatory Commission (FERC or 

Commission) has prepared the 

environmental assessment (EA) on the 

natural gas facilities proposed by 

Rockies Express Pipeline LLC (REX) in 

the above-referenced docket. REX’s 

proposal (the Meeker to Cheyenne 

Expansion Project) would add one 

additional compressor unit to both the 

Big Hole and Arlington Compressor 

Stations in Moffat County, Colorado and 

Carbon County, Wyoming, respectively. 

The EA was prepared to satisfy the 

requirements of the National 

Environmental Policy Act of 1969. The 

staff concludes that approval of the 

proposed project, with appropriate 

mitigating measures, would not 

constitute a major federal action 

significantly affecting the quality of the 

human environment. 

The EA assesses the potential 

environmental effects of the 

construction and operation of the 

proposed Meeker to Cheyenne 

Expansion Project. The purpose of the 

project is to increase the capacity of the 

REX–Entrega Pipeline between the 

Meeker Hub (Rio-Blanco County, 

Colorado), the Wamsutter Hub 

(Sweetwater County, Wyoming), and the 

Cheyenne Hub (Weld County, Colorado) 

by 200,000 dekatherms per day. 

The EA has been placed in the public 

files of the FERC. A limited number of 

copies of the EA are available for 

distribution and public inspection at: 

Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, 

Public Reference Room, 888 First Street, 

NE., Room 2A, Washington, DC 20426. 

Copies of the EA have been mailed to 

federal, state, and local agencies; 

newspapers and libraries in the project 

area; parties to this proceeding; and 

those who have expressed an interest in 

this project by returning the Mailing List
