[Docket No. CP21-113-000]

Alliance Pipeline, L.P.; Notice of Revised Schedule for 
Environmental Review of the Proposed Three Rivers Interconnection 
Project

    This notice provides the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission 
staff's revised schedule for completion of the final environmental 
impact statement (EIS) for Alliance Pipeline L.P.'s (Alliance) Three 
Rivers Interconnection Project. The first notice of schedule, issued on 
February 10, 2022, identified September 16, 2022 as the final EIS 
issuance date. The Project would be located in the vicinity of a 
facility regulated by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission which required 
the completion of a safety analysis to determine if the action would 
impact safe operation of the facility.\1\ The findings of this 
assessment and any subsequent actions or requirements were necessary 
for staff to complete the final EIS for the project. On November 16, 
2022, Alliance submitted a summary of the findings of the completed 
safety analysis and staff has revised the schedule for issuance of the 
final EIS.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ On September 15, 2022 the Commission issued a notice 
suspending the environmental review schedule for the Three Rivers 
Interconnection Project based upon the required safety analysis 
having not been completed.
