Federal Energy Regulatory 

Commission 

[Project No. 2232–570] 

Duke Energy Carolinas, LLC; Notice of 

Availability of Final Environmental 

Assessment 

October 16, 2009. 

In accordance with the National 

Environmental Policy Act of 1969, as 

amended, and the Federal Energy 

Regulatory Commission’s regulations, 

18 CFR part 380 (Order No. 486, 52 FR 

47879), the Commission has reviewed 

an application, filed June 18, 2009, for 

non-project use of project lands and 

waters at the Catawba-Wateree Project, 

FERC Project No. 2232. The licensee 

seeks Commission approval to permit 

the City of Lenoir, North Carolina to 

construct a new raw water intake at 

Lake Rhodhiss. The Environmental 

Assessment (EA) analyzes the 

environmental impacts of the proposed 

construction and operation of the new 

intake facility and concludes that 

approval of the application, with 

appropriate environmental measures, 

would not constitute a major federal 

action significantly affecting the quality 

of the human environment. The project 

is located on the Catawba and Wateree 

Rivers in North and South Carolina. 

The EA was written by staff in the 

Office of Energy Projects, Federal 

Energy Regulatory Commission 

(Commission). A copy of the EA is 

attached to a Commission order titled 

‘‘Order Approving Non-Project Use of 

Project Lands and Waters: Construction 

of Raw Water Intake’’ issued October 16, 

2009, and is on file with the 

Commission and is available for public 

inspections. The EA may also be viewed 

on the Commission’s Web site at http://

[Docket No. CP09–465–000] 

Northern Natural Gas Company; Notice 

of Intent To Prepare an Environmental 

Assessment for the Proposed 

Cunningham Storage Boundary 

Expansion Project and Request for 

Comments on Environmental Issues 

October 16, 2009. 

The staff of the Federal Energy 

Regulatory Commission (FERC or 

Commission) will prepare an 

environmental assessment (EA) that will 

discuss the environmental impacts of 

the proposed Cunningham Storage 

Boundary Expansion Project (Project) 

involving Northern Natural Gas 

Company’s (Northern) extension of the 

certificated boundary of the 

Cunningham Gas Storage Field in Pratt 

and Kingman Counties, Kansas.1 The 

EA will be used by the Commission in 

its decision-making process to 

determine whether the project is in the 

public convenience and necessity. 

This notice announces the opening of 

the scoping process we 2 will use to 

gather input from the public and 

interested agencies on the project. Your 

input will help the Commission staff 

determine which issues need to be 

evaluated in the EA. Please note that the 

scoping period will close on November 

16, 2009. 

This notice is being sent to affected 

landowners; federal, state, and local 

government representatives and 

agencies; elected officials; 

environmental and public interest 

groups; Native American Tribes; other 

interested parties; and local libraries 

and newspapers. State and local 

government representatives are asked to 

notify their constituents of this 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 

Northern representative about the 

acquisition of natural gas storage rights 

beneath your property. Northern would 

seek to negotiate a mutually acceptable 

agreement for the rights to operate a 

natural gas storage field beneath your 

property. If the project is approved by 

the Commission, that approval would 

convey with it the right of eminent 

domain. Therefore, if easement 

negotiations fail to produce an 

agreement, Northern could initiate 

condemnation proceedings in 

accordance with state law. It should be 

noted that the current proposal does not 

involve the construction of any facilities 

at this time. Any future proposal to 

construct jurisdictional facilities at the 

Cunningham Storage Field would be 

subject to an appropriate environmental 

review by the Commission. 

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 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. It is 

available for viewing on the FERC 

Internet Web site (http://www.ferc.gov). 

Summary of the Proposed Project 

Northern is proposing to expand its 

existing Cunningham Gas Storage Field 

by 14,240 acres in order to protect the 

integrity of the storage field. Northern 

believes that third party operators 

outside of the storage field boundaries 

are producing storage gas. The location 

of the proposed storage field expansion 

is shown in Appendix 1.3

Land Requirements 

No facilities would be constructed. 

Northern’s proposal is for expansion of 

the certificated Cunningham Storage 

Field boundary by an additional 14,240 

acres, including the underlying Viola 

and Simpson Formations. This area is
