[Docket No. CP17-135-000]


ANR Pipeline Company; Notice of Request Under Blanket 
Authorization

    Take notice that on April 7, 2017, ANR Pipeline Company (ANR), 700 
Louisiana Street, Suite 700, Houston, Texas 77002-2700, filed in Docket 
No. CP17-135-000 a prior notice request pursuant to sections 157.205, 
and 157.208(f)(2) of the Commission's regulations under the Natural Gas 
Act (NGA), and ANR's blanket certificate issued in Docket No. CP82-480-
000, to change the Maximum Operating Pressure (MOP) of Line 8230 from 
870 pounds per square inch gage (psig) to 780 psig. The Line 8230 is a 
15.8-mile-long, 20-inch-diameter lateral line, located in Clare County, 
Michigan. Natural gas is received on Line 8230 from the ANR mainline 
system at the Lincoln Compressor Station, and delivered at the Alpena 
and Harrison meter stations.
    ANR states that due to an increase in population along certain 
discrete sections of Line 8230 in 2010, ANR was required, pursuant to 
Part 192 of the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) regulations, to 
either upgrade the pipe in those sections or to lower the Maximum 
Allowable Operating Pressure, or MAOP, in those sections by January 12, 
2012.
    ANR has determined that it will not pursue an upgrade of the pipe 
in the affected sections, and therefore, ANR proposes to change the MOP 
of Line 8230 from 870 psig to 780 psig. ANR affirms that the MOP change 
will not adversely affect the quality or quantity of service otherwise 
provided to the existing transportation customers served from this 
line, and that there will be no termination or reduction in firm 
service to any existing customers as a result of the proposed lower 
MOP. ANR asserts that the lower MOP will insure the continued safe 
operation of the pipeline, will eliminate expenditures that would be 
required for the replacement of pipe, and will eliminate any potential 
environmental impacts that may result from pipe replacement, all as 
more fully set forth in the application which is on file with the 
Commission and open to public inspection. The filing may also 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, please contact FERC 
Online Support at [email protected] or toll free at (866) 208-
3676, or TTY, contact (202) 502-8659.
    Any questions concerning this application may be directed to Linda 
Farquhar, Manager, Project Determinations & Regulatory Administration, 
ANR Pipeline Company, 700 Louisiana Street, Suite 700, Houston, Texas 
77002-2700, by telephone at (832) 320-5685, by facsimile at (832) 320-
6487, or by email at [email protected].
    Any person or the Commission's staff may, within 60 days after 
issuance of the instant notice by the Commission, file pursuant to Rule 
214 of the Commission's Procedural Rules (18 CFR 385.214) a motion to 
intervene or notice of intervention and pursuant to section 157.205 of 
the regulations under the NGA (18 CFR 157.205), a protest to the 
request. If no protest is filed within the time allowed therefore, the 
proposed activity shall be deemed to be authorized effective the day 
after the time allowed for filing a protest. If a protest is filed and 
not withdrawn within 30 days after the allowed time for filing a 
protest, the instant request shall be treated as an application for 
authorization pursuant to section 7 of the NGA.
    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 for 
Environmental Review will serve to notify federal and state agencies of 
the timing for the

[[Page 18635]]

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.
    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 seven copies of the protest or intervention to 
the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street NE., 
Washington, DC 20426.

    Dated: April 13, 2017.
Kimberly D. Bose,
Secretary.
