Metam Sodium and Metam Potassium; Revised Human Health Risk
Assessment, Notice of Availability and Solicitation of Risk Reduction
Options

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Notice.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: This notice announces the availability and seeks comments on
EPA's revised human health risk assessment for the pesticide fumigants
metam sodium and metam potassium. In addition, this notice solicits
public comment on the risk reduction options paper for fumigants
including metam sodium and metam potassium and EPA's benefits
assessments for the soil fumigants. The Agency is also seeking comments
on the ecological risk assessment which was not revised since the last
public comment period. The public is encouraged to suggest risk
management ideas or proposals to address the risks identified. EPA is
developing a Reregistration Eligibility Decision (RED) for metam sodium
and metam potassium through the full, 6-Phase public participation
process that the Agency uses to involve the public in developing
pesticide reregistration and tolerance reassessment decisions. EPA also
is concurrently assessing the risks of four other soil fumigant
pesticides to ensure that its assessment approaches are consistent, and
to ensure that risk tradeoffs and economic outcomes can be adequately
predicted in reaching risk management decisions. The Agency is seeking
the same input from the public on these pesticides on a similar
schedule. Through these programs, EPA is ensuring that all pesticides
meet current health and safety standards.

II. Background

A. What Action is the Agency Taking?

    EPA is making available the Agency's revised human health risk
assessment and ecological risk assessment, initially issued for comment
through a Federal Register notice published on July 13, 2005, (70 FR
40333) (FRL-7722-1); a response to comments; and related documents for
metam sodium and metam potassium. EPA also is soliciting public comment
on the risk reduction options paper and benefits assessments for the
soil fumigants. EPA developed the risk assessments for metam sodium and
metam potassium as part of its public process for making pesticide
reregistration eligibility and tolerance reassessment decisions.
Through these programs, EPA is ensuring that pesticides meet current
standards under the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act
(FIFRA) and the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FFDCA), as
amended by the Food Quality Protection Act of 1996 (FQPA).
    Metam sodium and metam potassium are non-selective pre-plant soil
fumigants with fungicidal, herbicidal, insecticidal, and nematicidal
properties. They are registered for use on all food, feed and fiber
crops including turf and ornamentals. Metam sodium's major agricultural
use sites include potatoes, carrots, tomatoes, onions, and peanuts.
Metam potassium's major use sites are lettuce, potatoes, onions,
tomatoes, and watermelons. Metam sodium is also registered for use in
orchard replant, on golf course turf, and for small areas of turf and
soil. In addition, metam sodium is used as a root-control agent in
drains and sewers. Metam sodium and metam potassium are also registered
for a variety of antimicrobial and industrial uses. Metam sodium and
metam potassium are converted to methyl isothiocyanate (MITC) in the
environment, particularly in the presence of moisture (such as in soil
after application). It is MITC that performs the fumigating activity.
The volatility of metam sodium and metam potassium in the environment,
and results of metabolism studies in plants, assure that there is no
reasonable expectation of finite residues to be incurred in/on any raw
agricultural commodity when the products are applied according to label
directions.
    EPA is providing an opportunity, through this notice, for
interested parties to provide risk management proposals or otherwise
comment on risk management for metam sodium and metam potassium. Risks
of concern associated with the use of metam sodium and metam potassium
include

bystander and worker risks. A complete list of the risks and the
mitigation options can be found in the Risk Mitigation Options Document
docket number EPA-HQ-OPP-2005-0125. A Readers Guide has been created to
provide an organizational structure to the metam sodium and metam
potassium docket, to allow readers to more easily access and navigate
the various entries contained in the metam sodium and metam potassium
docket, and to facilitate public comment. You may find this guide in
docket number EPA-HQ-OPP-2005-0125. In targeting these risks of
concern, the Agency solicits information on effective and practical
risk reduction measures.
    EPA is applying the principles of public participation to all
pesticides undergoing reregistration and tolerance reassessment. The
Agency's Pesticide Tolerance Reassessment and Reregistration; Public
Participation Process, published in the Federal Register on May 14,
2004, (69 FR 26819)(FRL-7357-9) explains that in conducting these
programs, EPA is tailoring its public participation process to be
commensurate with the level of risk, extent of use, complexity of
issues, and degree of public concern associated with each pesticide.
Due to its uses, risks, and other factors, metam sodium and metam
potassium are being reviewed through the full 6-Phase public
participation process.
    All comments should be submitted using the methods in ADDRESSES,
and must be received by EPA on or before the closing date. Comments and
proposals will become part of the Agency Docket for metam sodium and
metam potassium. Comments received after the close of the comment
period will be marked ``late'' EPA is not required to consider these
late comments.
    After considering comments received, EPA will develop and issue the
metam sodium and metam potassium RED.

B. What is the Agency's Authority for Taking this Action?

    Section 4(g)(2) of FIFRA as amended directs that, after submission
of all data concerning a pesticide active ingredient, ``the
Administrator shall determine whether pesticides containing such active
ingredient are eligible for reregistration,'' before calling in product
specific data on individual end-use products and either reregistering
products or taking other ``appropriate regulatory action.''

Airworthiness Directives; Bombardier, Inc., Airplanes

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), Department of
Transportation (DOT).

ACTION: Final rule.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The FAA is adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for
certain Bombardier, Inc., Model BD-700-1A10 and BD-700-1A11 airplanes.
This AD was prompted by reports of low clearance between the variable
frequency generator (VFG) power feeder cables and adjacent hydraulic
lines and/or fuel lines in the aft equipment bay, which could cause
chafing damage. This AD requires modifying the routing of the VFG power
feeder cables and harnesses in the aft equipment bay. The FAA is
issuing this AD to address the unsafe condition on these products.

DATES: This AD is effective August 12, 2019.
    The Director of the Federal Register approved the incorporation by

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Discussion

    The FAA issued a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) to amend 14
CFR part 39 by adding an AD that would apply to certain Bombardier,
Inc., Model BD-700-1A10 and BD-700-1A11 airplanes. The NPRM published
in the Federal Register on February 22, 2019 (84 FR 5609). The NPRM was
prompted by reports of low clearance between the VFG power feeder
cables and adjacent hydraulic lines and/or fuel lines in the aft
equipment bay, which could cause chafing damage. The NPRM proposed to
require modifying the routing of the VFG power feeder cables and
harnesses in the aft equipment bay.
    The FAA is issuing this AD to address chafing damage in the aft
equipment bay, which could result in a hydraulic/fuel leak and
electrical arcing as an ignition source, and could cause an in-flight
fire.
    Transport Canada Civil Aviation (TCCA), which is the aviation
authority for Canada, has issued Canadian AD CF-2018-22, dated August
2, 2018 (referred to after this as the Mandatory Continuing
Airworthiness Information, or ``the MCAI''), to correct an unsafe
condition for certain Bombardier, Inc., Model BD-700-1A10 and BD-700-
1A11 airplanes. The MCAI states:

    Several aircraft have been discovered with low clearance between
the Variable Frequency Generator (VFG) cables and hydraulic/fuel
lines in the Aft Equipment Bay which may lead to chafing between the
VFG cables and the hydraulic/fuel lines. Chafing may result in
damage that could lead to a hydraulic/fuel leak and electrical
arcing as an ignition source. This condition, if not corrected,
could result in an in-flight fire.
    This [Canadian] AD mandates a modification to the routing of the
VFG power feeder cables and harnesses, to ensure the required
clearance between the VFG cables and hydraulic/fuel lines in the Aft
Equipment Bay.
    You may examine the MCAI in the AD docket on the internet at http://www.regulations.gov by searching for and locating Docket No. FAA-2019-
0019.

Comments

    The FAA gave the public the opportunity to participate in
developing this final rule. The following presents the comment received
on the NPRM and the FAA's response.

Request To Refer to Revised Service Information

    Flexjet stated that the routing modification in the proposed AD
refers to ``outdated Service Bulletins SB 700-24-089 R1, SB 700-24-6014
R1, 700-1A11-24-028 R1 [and] 700-24-5014 R1.'' Flexjet added that on
September 27, 2018, all service information referenced in the NPRM was
updated to Revision 2. Flexjet noted that Revision 2 of the service
information merely clarifies certain procedures.
    The FAA infers that the commenter is asking that this AD refer to
the following Bombardier service information as the appropriate source
for accomplishing the required actions:
     Service Bulletin 700-24-089, Revision 02, dated September
27, 2018.
     Service Bulletin 700-24-6014, Revision 02, dated September
27, 2018.
     Service Bulletin 700-1A11-24-028, Revision 02, dated
September 27, 2018.
     Service Bulletin 700-24-5014, Revision 02, dated September
27, 2018.
    The FAA agrees with the commenter's request. The FAA has included
the Bombardier service information listed above as the appropriate
source of service information for accomplishing the required actions.
The FAA has determined that no additional work is required for
airplanes that have accomplished the actions specified in Revision 01
of the referenced service information. Revision 02 of the referenced
service information clarifies the language in certain steps and adds
notes to certain steps. The FAA has added Revision 01 of the referenced
service information to paragraphs (h)(1) and (h)(2) of this AD to
provide credit for actions done before the effective date of this AD.

Conclusion

    The FAA reviewed the relevant data, considered the comment
received, and determined that air safety and the public interest
require adopting this final rule with the changes described previously
and minor editorial changes. The FAA has determined that these minor
changes:
     Are consistent with the intent that was proposed in the
NPRM for addressing the unsafe condition; and
     Do not add any additional burden upon the public than was
already proposed in the NPRM.
    The FAA also determined that these changes will not increase the
economic burden on any operator or increase the scope of this final
rule.

Related Service Information Under 1 CFR Part 51

Authority for This Rulemaking

    Title 49 of the United States Code specifies the FAA's authority to
issue rules on aviation safety. Subtitle I, section 106, describes the
authority of the FAA Administrator. Subtitle VII: Aviation Programs,
describes in more detail the scope of the Agency's authority.
    The FAA is issuing this rulemaking under the authority described in
Subtitle VII, Part A, Subpart III, Section 44701: ``General
requirements.'' Under that section, Congress charges the FAA with
promoting safe flight of civil aircraft in air commerce by prescribing
regulations for practices, methods, and procedures the Administrator
finds necessary for safety in air commerce. This regulation is within
the scope of that authority because it addresses an unsafe condition
that is likely to exist or develop on products identified in this
rulemaking action.
    This AD is issued in accordance with authority delegated by the
Executive Director, Aircraft Certification Service, as authorized by
FAA Order 8000.51C. In accordance with that order, issuance of ADs is
normally a function of the Compliance and Airworthiness Division, but
during this transition period, the Executive Director has delegated the
authority to issue ADs applicable to transport category airplanes and
associated appliances to the Director of the System Oversight Division.

Regulatory Findings

    This AD will not have federalism implications under Executive Order
13132. This AD will not have a substantial direct effect on the States,
on the relationship between the national government and the States, or
on the distribution of power and responsibilities among the various
levels of government.
    For the reasons discussed above, I certify that this AD:
    (1) Is not a ``significant regulatory action'' under Executive
Order 12866,
    (2) Will not affect intrastate aviation in Alaska, and
    (3) Will not have a significant economic impact, positive or
negative, on a substantial number of small entities under the criteria
of the Regulatory Flexibility Act.

ET Monday through Friday, except Federal holidays. To be sure someone
is there to help you, please call<PHONE_NUMBER> or<PHONE_NUMBER>
before visiting Dockets Operations.

B. Privacy Act

    In accordance with 49 U.S.C. 31315(b)(6), DOT solicits comments
from the public on the exemption requests. DOT posts these comments,
without edit, including any personal information the commenter
provides, to www.regulations.gov. As described in the system of records
notice DOT/ALL 14 (Federal Docket Management System), which can be
reviewed at https://www.transportation.gov/individuals/privacy/privacy-act-system-records-notices, the comments are searchable by the name of
the submitter.

II. Background

    On April 18, 2023, FMCSA published a notice announcing receipt of
applications from 15 individuals requesting an exemption from the
hearing requirement in 49 CFR 391.41(b)(11) to operate a CMV in
interstate commerce and requested comments from the public (88 FR
23724). The public comment period ended on May 18, 2023, and one
comment was received.
    FMCSA has evaluated the eligibility of these applicants and
determined that granting exemptions to these individuals would likely
achieve a level of safety that is equivalent to, or greater than, the
level that would be achieved by complying with Sec.  391.41(b)(11).
    The physical qualification standard for drivers regarding hearing
found in Sec.  391.41(b)(11) states that a person is physically
qualified to drive a CMV if that person first perceives a forced
whispered voice in the better ear at not less than 5 feet with or
without the use of a hearing aid or, if tested by use of an audiometric
device, does not have an average hearing loss in the better ear greater
than 40 decibels at 500 Hz, 1,000 Hz, and 2,000 Hz with or without a
hearing aid when the audiometric device is calibrated to American
National Standard (formerly ASA Standard) Z24.5-1951.
    This standard was adopted in 1970 and was revised in 1971 to allow
drivers to be qualified under this standard while wearing a hearing aid
(35 FR 6458, 6463 (Apr. 22, 1970) and 36 FR 12857 (July 8, 1971),
respectively).

III. Discussion of Comments

    FMCSA received one comment in this proceeding. However, the comment
is outside the scope of this notice.

IV. Basis for Exemption Determination

    Under 49 U.S.C. 31136(e) and 31315(b), FMCSA may grant an exemption
from the FMCSRs for no longer than a 5-year period if it finds such
exemption would likely achieve a level of safety that is equivalent to,
or greater than, the level that would be achieved absent such
exemption. The statutes also allow the Agency to renew exemptions at
the end of the 5-year period. However, FMCSA grants medical exemptions
from the FMCSRs for a 2-year period to align with the maximum duration
of a driver's medical certification.
    The Agency's decision regarding these exemption applications is
based on relevant scientific information and literature, and the 2008
Evidence Report, ``Executive Summary on Hearing, Vestibular Function
and Commercial Motor Driving Safety.'' The evidence report reached two
conclusions regarding the matter of hearing loss and CMV driver safety:
(1) no studies that examined the relationship between hearing loss and
crash risk exclusively among CMV drivers were identified; and (2)
evidence from studies of the private driver's license holder population
does not support the contention that individuals with hearing
impairment are at an increased risk for a crash. In addition, the
Agency reviewed each applicant's driving record found in the Commercial
Driver's License Information System, for commercial driver's license
(CDL) holders, and inspections recorded in the Motor Carrier Management
Information System. For non-CDL holders, the Agency reviewed the
driving records from the State Driver's Licensing Agency. Each
applicant's record demonstrated a safe driving history. Based on an
individual assessment of each applicant that focused on whether an
equal or greater level of safety would likely be achieved by permitting
each of these drivers to drive in interstate commerce, the Agency finds
the drivers granted this exemption have demonstrated that they do not
pose a risk to public safety.
    Consequently, FMCSA finds further that in each case exempting these
applicants from the hearing standard in Sec.  391.41(b)(11) would
likely achieve a level of safety equal to that existing without the
exemption, consistent with the applicable standard in 49 U.S.C.
31315(b)(1).

V. Conditions and Requirements

    The terms and conditions of the exemption are provided to the
applicants in the exemption document and include the following: (1)
each driver must report any crashes or accidents as defined in Sec.
390.5T; (2) each driver must report all citations and convictions for
disqualifying offenses under 49 CFR parts 383 and 391 to FMCSA; and (3)
each driver is prohibited from operating a motorcoach or bus with
passengers in interstate commerce. The driver must also have a copy of
the exemption when driving, for presentation to a duly authorized
Federal, State, or local enforcement official. In addition, the
exemption does not exempt the individual from meeting the applicable
CDL testing requirements.

VI. Preemption

    During the period the exemption is in effect, no State shall
enforce any law or regulation that conflicts with this exemption with
respect to a person operating under the exemption.

VII. Conclusion

    Based upon its evaluation of the 15 exemption applications, FMCSA
exempts the following drivers from the hearing standard; in Sec.
391.41(b)(11), subject to the requirements cited above:

Kishawn Bordeau (IN)
Mark Brady (TN)
Brice Cunningham (OH)
Brett Garner (NC)
David Gonzalez (CT)
Donnie Hall (NC)
Charles Heitzman (OH)
Yisak Jemal (AZ)
Christopher Jones (MA)
Trent Lint (OH)
Julie Mackie (WA)
Robert Maxwell (OH)
Zenon Rodriquez (KY)
Maria Singleton (SC)
Brandon White (OH)

    In accordance with 49 U.S.C. 31315(b), each exemption will be valid
for 2 years from the effective date unless revoked earlier by FMCSA.
The exemption will be revoked if the following occurs: (1) the person
fails to comply with the terms and conditions of the exemption; (2) the
exemption has resulted in a lower level of safety than was maintained
prior to being granted; or (3) continuation of the exemption would not
be consistent with the goals and objectives of 49 U.S.C. 31136, 49
U.S.C. chapter 313, or the FMCSRs.

DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY

Federal Energy Regulatory Commission

[Docket No. PF18-6-000]

Summit Permian Transmission, LLC; Notice of Intent To Prepare an
Environmental Document for the Planned Double E Pipeline Project and
Request for Comments on Environmental Issues

    The staff of the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC or
Commission) will prepare an environmental document that will discuss
the environmental impacts of the Double E Pipeline Project involving
construction and operation of facilities by Summit Permian
Transmission, LLC (Summit) in New Mexico and Texas. The Commission will
use this environmental document 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 the
Commission will use to gather input from the public and interested
agencies about issues regarding the project. The National Environmental
Policy Act (NEPA) requires the Commission to consider the environmental
impacts that could result from its action whenever it considers the
issuance of a Certificate of Public Convenience and Necessity. NEPA
also requires the Commission to discover concerns the public may have
about proposals. This process is referred to as ``scoping.'' The main
goal of the scoping process is to focus the analysis in the
Commission's environmental document on the important environmental
issues. By this notice, the Commission requests public comments on the
scope of the issues to address. Your input will also help the
Commission staff determine whether the preparation of an environmental
assessment, or an environmental impact statement, would be appropriate
for this project. To ensure that your comments are timely and properly
recorded, please submit your comments so that the Commission receives
them in Washington, DC on or before 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time on January
10, 2019.
    You can make a difference by submitting your specific comments or
concerns about the project. Your comments should focus on the potential
environmental effects, reasonable alternatives, and measures to avoid
or lessen environmental impacts. Your input will help the Commission
staff determine the scope of the environmental review and what issues
need to be evaluated. Commission staff will consider all filed comments
during the preparation of the environmental document.
    If you sent comments on this project to the Commission before the
opening of this docket on July 25, 2018, you will need to file those
comments in Docket No. PF18-6-000 to ensure they are considered as part
of this proceeding.
    This notice is being sent to the Commission's current environmental
mailing list for this project. State and local government
representatives should 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, a pipeline company
representative may contact you about the acquisition of an easement to
construct, operate, and maintain the planned facilities. The company
would seek to negotiate a mutually acceptable easement agreement. You
are not required to enter into an agreement. However, if the Commission
approves the project, that approval conveys with it the right of
eminent domain. Therefore, if you and the company do not reach an
easement agreement, the pipeline company could initiate condemnation
proceedings in court. In such instances, compensation would be
determined by a judge in accordance with state law.
    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 website (www.ferc.gov) at https://www.ferc.gov/resources/guides/gas/gas.pdf. 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.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Summary of the Planned Project

    The scope of facilities currently includes the following:
     Approximately 34 miles of new 30-inch-diameter trunk-line
pipeline (Trunk-line 100 or T100) from Summit's existing Lane
Processing Plant in Eddy County, New Mexico to a planned Poker Lake
Compressor Station site, also in Eddy County. In addition to the trunk-
line, this portion of the project would include:

--One 30-inch pig launcher \2\ and one receipt meter located within the
Lane Processing Plant;
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \2\ A ``pig'' is a tool that the pipeline company inserts into
and pushes through the pipeline for cleaning the pipeline,
conducting internal inspections, or other purposes.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

--two mainline block valves within a 40-foot by 50-foot gravel pad
within the planned right-of-way; and

--one permanent and six temporary access roads.

     One new compressor station (Poker Lake Compressor
Station), sited on approximately 70 acres on federal land managed by
the U.S. Bureau of Land Management, in Eddy County. The new compressor
station would require two Taurus 70 turbine-driven compressor units,
totaling about 22,200 horsepowers. Associated facilities would include
one 42-inch pig launcher; one 30-inch pig receiver; and one receipt
meter located at the Poker Lake Compressor Station site with an
expected volume of 175 million standard cubic feet per day (MMscfd).
     Approximately 81.1 miles of new 42-inch-diameter trunk-
line pipeline (Trunk-line 200 or T200) from the planned Poker Lake
Compressor Station; through Loving, Ward, and Reeves Counties, Texas
and terminating at the Waha Pigging Station in Reeves County, Texas. In
addition to the trunk-line, this portion of the project would include:

--Four mainline block valves within a 40-foot by 50-foot gravel pad
within the planned right-of-way;
--one 42-inch pig receiver, located within the Waha Hub Pigging Station
site; and six permanent and 22 temporary access roads.

     Approximately 17.3 miles of new 30-inch-diameter lateral-
line pipeline (Lateral 100 or L100) from the existing Loving Processing
Plants to the planned trunk-line in Eddy County, New Mexico. Additional
facilities would include:

--One 30-inch pig launcher within an approximate 300-foot by 300-foot
site;
--one 30-inch pig receiver within an approximate 200-foot by 200-foot
site; and
--three receipt meters with an approximate 300-foot by 300-foot site,
including:
    [ssquf] One receipt meter to serve the new Sendero Midstream
Partners Plant, currently under construction;
    [ssquf] one receipt meter to serve the existing Matador Resources
Company's Plant; and
    [ssquf] one receipt meter to serve the new Lucid Energy Group Road
Runner Plant, currently under construction.

    --one permanent and four temporary access roads.
 Approximately 1.4 miles of new 42-inch-diameter trunk-line
(Trunk-line 300 or T300) from the planned Summit Waha Pigging Station
site in Reeves County, Texas to the final delivery locations in the
Waha Hub in Pecos, County, Texas. Aboveground facilities would include:

--One delivery meter to serve Kinder Morgan's Permian Highway Pipeline,
currently under construction;
--one delivery meter to serve Kinder Morgan's existing Gulf Coast
Express Pipeline; and
--one delivery meter to serve Energy Transfer Company's existing Trans
Pecos Pipeline header pipeline.

     Approximately 160 acres of temporary laydown or pipeyards
are planned for the project. In addition, fiber optic cables would be
installed within the same trench as the pipelines, for facility
communications and operation.
    Summit anticipates initial construction activities to begin in
April 2020, with a planned in-service date of April 2021. The general
location of the project facilities is shown in appendix 2.\3\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \3\ The appendices referenced in this notice will not appear in
the Federal Register. Copies of the appendices were sent to all
those receiving this notice in the mail and are available at
www.ferc.gov using the link called ``eLibrary'' or from the
Commission's Public Reference Room, 888 First Street NE, Washington,
DC 20426, or call<PHONE_NUMBER>. For instructions on connecting to
eLibrary, refer to the last page of this notice.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Land Requirements for Construction

    Construction of the planned facilities would disturb about 2,730
acres of land, including the trunk-line and lateral pipelines, new
compressor station and the aboveground facilities. Following
construction, Summit would maintain about 976 acres for permanent
operation of the project's facilities; the remaining acreages would be
restored and revert to their former uses. About 93 percent of the
planned pipeline route parallels existing pipeline, utility, or road
rights-of-way.

The NEPA Process

    The environmental document will discuss impacts that could occur as
a result of the construction and operation of the planned project under
these general headings:
     Geology and soils;
     water resources and wetlands;
     vegetation and wildlife;
     threatened and endangered species;
     cultural resources;
     land use;
     socioeconomics;
     air quality and noise;
     public safety; and
     cumulative impacts.
    Commission staff will also evaluate possible alternatives to the
planned project or portions of the project, and make recommendations on
how to lessen or avoid impacts on the various resource areas.
    Although no formal application has been filed, Commission staff
have already initiated a NEPA review under the Commission's pre-filing
process. The purpose of the pre-filing process is to encourage early
involvement of interested stakeholders and to identify and resolve
issues before the Commission receives an application. As part of the
pre-filing review, Commission staff will contact federal and state
agencies to discuss their involvement in the scoping process and the
preparation of the environmental document.
    The environmental document will present Commission staffs'
independent analysis of the issues, and will be available in electronic
format in the public record through eLibrary \4\ and the Commission's
website (https://www.ferc.gov/industries/gas/enviro/eis.asp). If
eSubscribed, you will receive instant email notification when the
environmental document is issued. The environmental document may be
issued for an allotted public comment period. Commission staff will
consider all comments on the environmental document before making
recommendations to the Commission. To ensure Commission staff have the
opportunity to consider and address your comments, please carefully
follow the instructions in the Public Participation section, beginning
on page 2.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \4\ For instructions on connecting to eLibrary, refer to the
last page of this notice.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    With this notice, the Commission is asking agencies with
jurisdiction by law and/or special expertise with respect to the
environmental issues related to this project to formally cooperate in
the preparation of the environmental document.\5\ Agencies that would
like to request cooperating agency status should follow the
instructions for filing comments provided under the Public
Participation section of this notice. Currently, the U.S. Bureau of
Land Management (BLM), Carlsbad Field Office has expressed its
intention to participate as a cooperating agency in the preparation of
the environmental document to satisfy the BLM's NEPA responsibilities
related to this project.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \5\ The Council on Environmental Quality regulations addressing
cooperating agency responsibilities are at Title 40, Code of Federal
Regulations, Part 1501.6.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Consultation Under Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation
Act

    In accordance with the Advisory Council on Historic Preservation's
implementing regulations for section 106 of the National Historic
Preservation Act, the Commission is

using this notice to initiate consultation with the applicable State
Historic Preservation Office(s), and to solicit their views and those
of other government agencies, interested Indian tribes, and the public
on the project's potential effects on historic properties.\6\
Commission staff will define the project-specific Area of Potential
Effects (APE) in consultation with the SHPO(s) as the project develops.
On natural gas facility projects, the APE at a minimum encompasses all
areas subject to ground disturbance (examples include construction
right-of-way, contractor/pipe storage yards, compressor stations, and
access roads). The environmental document for this project will
document the Commission staff's findings on the impacts on historic
properties and summarize the status of consultations under section 106.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \6\ The Advisory Council on Historic Preservation regulations
are at Title 36, Code of Federal Regulations, Part 800. Those
regulations define historic properties as any prehistoric or
historic district, site, building, structure, or object included in
or eligible for inclusion in the National Register of Historic
Places.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Currently Identified Environmental Issues

    Commission staff have already identified several issues that
deserve attention based on a preliminary review of the planned
facilities and the environmental information provided by Summit. This
preliminary list of issues may change based on your comments and our
analysis.
     the project crosses federal lands managed by the BLM in
New Mexico;
     the project crosses lands managed by New Mexico State
Lands Trust;
     one or more known cultural resources sites may be impacted
by the project; and
     sensitive plant and animal species may be affected by the
project.

Environmental Mailing List

    The environmental mailing list includes 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. This list also
includes all affected landowners (as defined in the Commission's
regulations) who are potential right-of-way grantors, whose property
may be used temporarily for project purposes, or who own homes within
certain distances of aboveground facilities, and anyone who submits
comments on the project. Commission staff will update the environmental
mailing list as the analysis proceeds to ensure that Commission notices
related to this environmental review are sent to all individuals,
organizations, and government entities interested in and/or potentially
affected by the planned project.
    When the Commission issues the environmental document for an
allotted public comment period, a Notice of Availability of the
environmental document will be sent to the environmental mailing list
and will provide instructions to access the electronic document on the
FERC's website (www.ferc.gov). If you need to make changes to your
name/address, or if you would like to remove your name from the mailing
list, please return the attached ``Mailing List Update Form'' (appendix
3).

Becoming an Intervenor

    Once Summit files its application with the Commission, you may want
to become an ``intervenor'' which is an official party to the
Commission's proceeding. Only intervenors have the right to seek
rehearing of the Commission's decision and be heard by the courts if
they choose to appeal the Commission's final ruling. An intervenor
formally participates in the proceeding by filing a request to
intervene pursuant to Rule 214 of the Commission's Rules of Practice
and Procedures (18 CFR 385.214). Motions to intervene are more fully
described at http://www.ferc.gov/resources/guides/how-to/intervene.asp.
Please note that the Commission will not accept requests for intervenor
status at this time. You must wait until the Commission receives a
formal application for the project, after which the Commission will
issue a public notice that establishes an intervention deadline.

    Take notice that on August 10, 2020, Midship Pipeline Company, LLC
(Midship) requested that the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission
(Commission) grant an extension of time, until December 31, 2022, to
complete construction and place into service three delayed compressor
units for its Midship Pipeline Project, as originally authorized in the
August 13, 2018 Order Issuing Certificate (August 13 Order).\1\ The
August 13 Order (as amended) \2\ required the applicants to complete
construction and make the facilities available for service within two
years of the original Order date.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Midship Pipeline Company, LLC, 168 FERC ] 61,147 (2019); Midship
Pipeline Company, LLC, 170 FERC ] 61,137 (2020).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The overall project is designed to provide up to 1,440 million
standard cubic feet per day (MMcf/d) of firm transportation capacity
from the South Central Oklahoma Oil Province and the Sooner Trend
Anadarko Basin Canadian and Kingfisher gas plays in the Anadarko Basin
in Oklahoma to existing natural gas pipelines near Bennington,
Oklahoma, for subsequent transport to Gulf Coast and Southeast markets.
As authorized, the project includes an approximately 200-mile-long
mainline pipeline in Oklahoma; three mainline gas-fired turbine
compressor stations (Calumet, Tatums and Bennington), each of which
included three compressor units; metering and regulation stations;
appurtenant facilities; and two lateral pipelines, the Chisholm and
Velma Laterals.
    In its request, Midship states that it has constructed all
facilities authorized by the Certificate, except for one compressor
unit at each of the Calumet, Tatums, and Bennington compressor
stations.
    Midship also states that, due to delays in the commercialization of
the project, additional time is now required in order to complete the
construction of the remaining authorized project facilities.
    This notice establishes a 15-calendar day intervention and comment
period deadline. Any person wishing to comment on the applicant's
request for an extension of time may do so. No reply comments or
answers will be considered. If you wish to obtain legal status by
becoming a party to the proceedings for this request, you should, on or
before the comment date stated below, file a motion to intervene in
accordance with the requirements of the Commission's Rules of Practice
and Procedure (18 CFR 385.214 or 385.211) and the Regulations under the
Natural Gas Act (18 CFR 157.10).\3\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \3\ Only motions to intervene from entities that were party to
the underlying proceeding will be accepted. Algonquin Gas
Transmission, LLC, 170 FERC ] 61,144, at P 39 (2020).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    As a matter of practice, the Commission itself generally acts on
requests for extensions of time to complete construction for Natural
Gas Act facilities when such requests are contested before order
issuance. For those extension requests that are contested,\4\ the
Commission will aim to issue an order acting on the request within 45
days.\5\ The Commission will address all arguments relating to whether
the applicant has demonstrated there is good cause to grant the
extension.\6\ The Commission will not consider arguments that re-
litigate the issuance of the certificate order, including whether the
Commission properly found the project to be in the public convenience
and necessity and whether the Commission's environmental analysis for
the certificate complied with the National Environmental Policy Act.\7\
At the time a pipeline requests an extension of time, orders on
certificates of public convenience and necessity are final and the
Commission will not re-litigate their issuance.\8\ The OEP Director, or
his or her designee, will act on all of those extension requests that
are uncontested.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \4\ Contested proceedings are those where an intervenor disputes
any material issue of the filing. 18 CFR 385.2201(c)(1) (2019).

    \7\ Similarly, the Commission will not re-litigate the issuance
of an NGA section 3 authorization, including whether a proposed
project is not inconsistent with the public interest and whether the
Commission's environmental analysis for the permit order complied
with NEPA.
