DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY 

Federal Energy Regulatory 

Commission 

[Docket No. CP09–110–000] 

Mississippi Hub, LLC; Notice of 

Availability of the Environmental 

Assessment for the Proposed 

Mississippi Hub Expansion Project 

July 17, 2009. 

The staff of the Federal Energy 

Regulatory Commission (FERC or 

Commission) has prepared an 

environmental assessment (EA) of the 

Mississippi Hub, LLC (MS HUB) 

Expansion Project, proposed in the 

above referenced docket. MS HUB 

requests authorization to modify its 

previously-authorized salt cavern 

natural gas storage facility in Simpson 

County, Mississippi and construct and 

operate new natural gas pipeline 

facilities in Simpson, Jefferson Davis, 

and Covington Counties, Mississippi. 

The EA was prepared to satisfy the 

requirements of the National 

Environmental Policy Act. 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 EA assesses the potential 

environmental effects of the MS HUB 

Expansion Project (project), involving 

the following construction activities: 

• Increasing the working natural gas 

storage capacity of two previouslyauthorized solution-mined salt storage 

caverns from 6.0 billion cubic feet (Bcf) 

to 7.5 Bcf in each cavern; 

• Equipment modifications at the 

Natural Gas Handling Facility Site, 

including installation of 15,800 

horsepower of additional compression; 

• Construction of 22.6 miles of 30- 

inch-diameter pipeline and 14.2 miles 

of 24-inch-diameter pipeline, collocated 

in a single pipeline corridor; 

• Aboveground tie-in and metering 

facilities at proposed pipeline 

interconnects with the Southeast 

Supply Header (SESH) pipeline and the 

Transcontinental Gas Pipe Line 

Corporation (Transco) pipeline; and 

• Various ancillary facilities. 

The purpose of the project is to 

expand MS HUB’s high deliverability 

natural gas storage facility and create 

new interconnects with the SESH and 

Transco pipeline systems. The MS HUB 

Expansion Project would increase the 

total working gas capacity of the facility 

from 12 Bcf to 15 Bcf, and increase MS 

HUB’s natural gas withdrawal and 

injection capabilities. 

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; 

interested groups and individuals; 

newspapers and libraries in the project 

area; and parties to this proceeding.

the EA may do so. To ensure

a ‘‘backup’’ waste fuel to be used as the 

primary energy source for the facility in 

the event of an interruption in the 

supply of the facility’s current, 

Commission-approved primary energy 

source. 

NorthWestern Corporation

appropriate. Such notices, motions, or 

protests must be filed on or before the 

comment date. Anyone filing a motion
