Transcontinental Gas Pipe Line

Corporation; Notice of Availability of

the Environmental Assessment for the

Proposed Potomac Expansion Project

January 16, 2007.

The staff of the Federal Energy

Regulatory Commission (Commission or

FERC) has prepared the Environmental

Assessment (EA) for the construction

and operation of the Potomac Expansion

Project as proposed by Transcontinental

Gas Pipe Line Corporation (Transco) in

the above-referenced docket.

The EA was prepared to satisfy the

requirements of the National

Environmental Policy Act. The staff

concludes that approval of the proposed

Potomac Expansion Project, with

appropriate mitigating measures as

recommended, would not constitute a

major federal action significantly

affecting the quality of the human

environment. The EA evaluates

alternatives to the proposal, including

the no-action alternative.

The EA addresses the potential

environmental effects of the

construction and operation of the

proposed Potomac Expansion Project in

Campbell, Pittsylvania, and Fairfax

Counties, Virginia, including the

construction of:

PO 00000

Frm 00029

Fmt 4703

Sfmt 4703

2675

• About 16.4 miles of 42-inchdiameter pipeline;

• About 3.4 miles of 30-inch-diameter

pipeline replacement with 42-inchdiameter pipeline; and

• New and replacement aboveground

facilities at existing aboveground

facilities.

The purpose of the Potomac

Expansion Project is to: expand delivery

capacity on Transco’s existing mainline

pipeline system to deliver up to 165,000

dekatherms per day of incremental

primary firm transportation from

Transco’s interconnects with East

Tennessee Natural Gas and Pine Needle

LNG to interconnects with the

customers’ local distribution systems in

northern Virginia, Washington, DC, and

Baltimore, Maryland.

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.

In addition, copies of the EA have

been mailed to Federal, State, and local

government agencies; elected officials;

Native American tribes; local libraries

and newspapers; intervenors in the

FERC’s proceeding; and affected

landowners and individuals.

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 your comments before

the date specified below. Please

carefully follow these instructions to

ensure that your comments are received

in time and properly recorded:
