Authorization

    Take notice that on May 5, 2017, Algonquin Gas Transmission, LLC 
(Algonquin), P.O. Box 1642, Houston, Texas 77251-1642, filed in Docket 
No. CP17-438-000 a prior notice request pursuant to sections 157.205 
and 157.208 of the Commission's regulations under the Natural Gas Act 
(NGA), as amended, requesting authorization to replace a segment of 24-
inch-diameter pipeline at a crossing of the Mystic River with an offset 
located adjacent to the existing pipeline at the confluence of the 
Mystic River and Alewife Brook (Mystic River Project). Specifically, 
Algonquin proposes to install a new, approximate 1,300-foot section of 
24-inch-diameter pipeline on its J-1 System underneath the channel of 
the Mystic River and Alewife Brook in Somerville, Medford, and 
Arlington, Massachusetts. Algonquin states that the Mystic River 
Project will have no impact on the certificated capacity of Algonquin 
system, and there will be no abandonment or reduction in service to any 
customer of Algonquin as a result of the project. Algonquin estimates 
the cost of the Mystic River Project to be approximately $15 million, 
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
