Spire STL Pipeline, LLC; Notice of Application

    Take notice that on January 26, 2017, Spire STL Pipeline LLC 
(Spire), 700 Market Street, St. Louis, Missouri 63101, filed an 
application pursuant to section 7(c) of the Natural Gas Act (NGA) and 
Parts 157 and 284 of the Commission's Regulations requesting authority 
to construct and operate a pipeline project which would include: (i) 
The construction of approximately 59 miles of a new greenfield, 24-
inch-diameter pipeline; (ii) the acquisition of approximately seven 
miles of existing Line 880, currently owned by Laclede Gas Company 
(Laclede); and (iii) minor modifications to line 880 after it is 
acquired. Spire's new pipeline would extend from an interconnection 
with the Rockies Express Pipeline (REX) southward through Scott, Greene 
and Jersey Counties, Illinois and St. Charles and St. Louis Counties, 
Missouri to an interconnection with the Laclede's Line 880. Combined 
the project will be a new, approximately 66 mile long interstate 
natural gas pipeline that is designed to provide approximately 400,000 
dekatherms per day (Dth/d) of new firm natural gas transportation 
service to the St. Louis metropolitan area. The cost to construct and 
acquire the project facilities is approximately $220 million dollars.
    The filing may be viewed on the Web at http://www.ferc.gov using 
the ``eLibrary'' link. Enter the docket number excluding the last three 
digits in the docket number field to access the document. For 
assistance, contact FERC at [email protected] or call toll-
free, (886) 208-3676 or TYY, (202) 502-8659.
    Any questions concerning this application should be directed to 
Scott Jaskowiak, Vice President, Spire STL Pipeline LLC, 700 Market 
Street, St. Louis, Missouri 63101, phone: 314-516-8588, email: 
[email protected].
    On July 22, 2016 the Commission granted Spire's request to utilize 
the Pre-Filing Process and assigned Docket No. PF16-9-000 to staff 
activities involved in the Spire project. Now, as of the filing of the 
January 26 application, the Pre-Filing Process for this project has 
ended. From this time forward, this proceeding will be conducted in 
Docket No. CP17-40-000 as noted in the caption of this Notice.
    Pursuant to section 157.9 of the Commission's rules, 18 CFR 157.9, 
within 90 days of this Notice the Commission staff will either: 
Complete its environmental assessment (EA) and place it into the 
Commission's public record (eLibrary) for this proceeding, or issue a 
Notice of Schedule for Environmental Review. If a Notice of Schedule 
for Environmental Review is issued, it will indicate, among other 
milestones, the anticipated date for the Commission staff's issuance of 
the final environmental impact statement (FEIS) or EA for this 
proposal. The filing of the EA in the Commission's public record for 
this proceeding or the issuance of a Notice of Schedule will serve to 
notify federal and state agencies of the timing for the completion of 
all necessary reviews, and the subsequent need to complete all federal 
authorizations within 90 days of the date of issuance of the Commission 
staff's FEIS or EA.
    There are two ways to become involved in the Commission's review of 
this project. First, any person wishing to obtain legal status by 
becoming a party to the proceedings for this project should, on or 
before the comment date stated below, file with the Federal Energy 
Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street NE., Washington, DC 20426, 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 NGA (18 CFR 157.10). A person 
obtaining party status will be placed on the service list maintained by 
the Secretary of the Commission and will receive copies of all 
documents filed by the applicant and by all other parties. A party must 
submit 5 copies of filings made with the Commission and must mail a 
copy to the applicant and to every other party in the proceeding. Only 
parties to the proceeding can ask for court review of Commission orders 
in the proceeding.
    However, a person does not have to intervene in order to have 
comments considered. The second way to participate is by filing with 
the Secretary of the Commission, as soon as

[[Page 11029]]

possible, an original and two copies of comments in support of or in 
opposition to this project. The Commission will consider these comments 
in determining the appropriate action to be taken, but the filing of a 
comment alone will not serve to make the filer a party to the 
proceeding. The Commission's rules require that persons filing comments 
in opposition to the project provide copies of their protests only to 
the party or parties directly involved in the protest.
    Persons who wish to comment only on the environmental review of 
this project should submit an original and two copies of their comments 
to the Secretary of the Commission. Environmental commenters will be 
placed on the Commission's environmental mailing list, will receive 
copies of the environmental documents, and will be notified of meetings 
associated with the Commission's environmental review process. 
Environmental commenters will not be required to serve copies of filed 
documents on all other parties. However, the non-party commenters will 
not receive copies of all documents filed by other parties or issued by 
the Commission (except for the mailing of environmental documents 
issued by the Commission) and will not have the right to seek court 
review of the Commission's final order.
    The Commission strongly encourages electronic filings of comments, 
protests and interventions in lieu of paper using the ``eFiling'' link 
at http://www.ferc.gov. Persons unable to file electronically should 
submit an original and 7 copies of the protest or intervention to the 
Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street NE., Washington, 
DC 20426.
    Comment Date: 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time on February 27, 2017.

    Dated: February 6, 2017.

Secretary.
