prevent confusion between line 

numbers and alert criteria. 

7. Added an Alert status category 

‘‘system report,’’ which shall be filed by 

the later of 24 hours after the 

recognition of the incident OR by the 

end of the next business day. This 

change aligns with the EOP–004 

Reliability Standard. 4:00 p.m. local 

time will be definition for the end of the 

business day. 

8. Under Electric Emergency Incident 

and Disturbance Report section, lines J, 

K, L were reorganized into ‘‘Cause, 

Impact, and Action Taken’’ for clarity 

and ease of use and additional items 

were added to align with NERC’s EOP– 

004 Reliability Standard. 

9. The burden per response for 

completing Form OE–417 is reduced 

from 2.16 hours to 1.8 hours based on 

findings from the results from cognitive 

research conducted by the U.S. Energy 

Information Administration. 

EIA also proposes to amend its data 

protection policy for information 

reported on Schedule 2 of Form OE– 

417. Currently this information is 

protected from public release to the 

extent that it satisfies the criteria for 

exemption under the Freedom of 

Information Act (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552, 

the DOE regulations, 10 CFR 1004.11 

implementing FOIA, and the Trade 

Secrets Act, 18 U.S.C. 1905. EIA 

proposes to use the Critical Energy 

Infrastructure Information (CEII) 

regulations as set forth by the Federal 

Energy Regulatory Commission to 

implement the requirements of the 

Fixing America’s Surface Transportation 

(FAST) Act, Public Law 114–94, 

pursuant to section 215A(d) of the 

Federal Power Act, as amended, to 

protect information reported on 

Schedule 2 in addition to continuing to 

apply FOIA exemptions and using the 

Trade Secrets Act. This change will 

strengthen DOE’s ability to protect 

information reported on Schedule 2 of 

Form OE–417 and authorize DOE to 

withhold company identifiable 

information from public release. 

The new data protection provision for 

Form OE–417 will be as follows: The 

information reported on Schedule 1 will 

be considered ‘‘public information’’ and 

may be publicly released in company or 

individually identifiable form. 

Information on Schedule 2 of Form 

OE–417 will not be disclosed to the 

public to the extent that it satisfies the 

criteria for exemption under the 

Freedom of Information Act (FOIA), 5 

U.S.C. 552, the DOE regulations, 10 CFR 

1004.11, implementing the FOIA, the 

Trade Secrets Act, 18 U.S.C. 1905 and 

Critical Energy Infrastructure 

Information regulations as defined by 

the Federal Energy Regulatory 

Commission pursuant to section 

215A(d) of the Federal Power Act, as 

amended. 

In accordance with the Federal Energy 

Administration Act, the DOE provides 

company-specific protected data to 

other Federal agencies when requested 

for official use. The information 

reported on this form may also be made 

available, upon request, to another 

component of DOE; to any Committee of 

Congress, the U.S. Government 

Accountability Office, or other Federal 

agencies authorized by law to receive 

such information. A court of competent 

jurisdiction may obtain this information 

in response to an order. The information 

may be used for any non-statistical 

purposes such as administrative, 

regulatory, law enforcement, or 

adjudicatory purposes. 

The data collected on Form OE–417, 

Electric Emergency Incident and 

disturbance Report, will be used by DOE 

to meet its overall national security and 

National Response Framework 

responsibilities.

Commission 

[Docket No. CP17–74–000] 

National Fuel Gas Supply Corporation; 

Notice of Schedule for Environmental 

Review of the Line YM28 & Line FM120 

Modernization Project 

On March 10, 2017, National Fuel Gas 

Supply Corporation (National Fuel) 

filed an application in Docket No. 

CP17–74–000 requesting an 

authorization and a Certificate of Public 

Convenience and Necessity pursuant to 

Sections 7(b) and 7(c) of the Natural Gas 

Act to abandon, construct, and operate 

certain natural gas pipeline facilities. 

The proposed project is known as the 

Line YM28 & Line FM120 

Modernization Project (Project). 

On March 24, 2017, 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 September 29, 2017 

90-day Federal Authorization Decision 

Deadline December 28, 2017 

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 

National Fuel proposes to construct, 

operate, and abandon various facilities 

in Cameron, Elk, and McKean Counties, 

Pennsylvania. According to National 

Fuel, the Project would enhance the 

reliability and safety of the National 

Fuel system, allow for continued 

transportation services performed by the 

abandoned facilities, and offer better 

connectivity for storage and 

transportation services to National 

Fuel’s backbone transmission pipeline 

(Line K). 

The Project would consist of the 

following: 

• Approximately 14.4 miles of new 

12-inch-diameter pipeline installed 

within existing rights-of-way in McKean 

County (designated Line KL);

38902 Federal Register / Vol. 82, No. 157 / Wednesday, August 16, 2017 / Notices 

• approximately 5.8 miles of new 6- 

inch-diameter pipeline installed via 

insertion into the existing 12-inchdiameter FM120 pipeline in McKean 

and Elk Counties; 

• abandonment in place of 

approximately 7.7 miles of the existing 

Line YM28 in McKean County; 

• approximately 12.5 miles of Line 

FM120 removed from service in 

McKean, Elk, and Cameron Counties; 

• removal and relocation of a meter 

set to the proposed Line KL; and 

• new ancillary facilities including an 

interconnect in McKean County and 

miscellaneous valve and piping 

modifications. 

Background 

On May 16, 2017, the Commission 

issued a Notice of Intent to Prepare an 

Environmental Assessment for the 

Proposed Line YM28 & Line FM120 

Modernization 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 Alleghany Defense Project and 

William Belitskus. The primary issues 

raised by the commenters are improper 

segmentation of the Project from the 

Northern Access 2016 Project, 

cumulative impacts, and impacts from 

increased shale gas development. 

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., CP17–74), and follow the

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.
