    On July 5, 2017, Paiute Pipeline Company (Paiute), P.O. Box 94197, 
Las Vegas, Nevada 89193-4197, filed an application pursuant to sections 
7(b) and 7(c) of the Natural Gas Act (NGA) and the Federal Energy 
Regulatory Commission's (Commission) regulations seeking for a 
certificate of public convenience and necessity authorizing

[[Page 34516]]

Paiute to abandon and replace certain pipeline facilities, and to 
construct and operate certain pipeline and associated facilities 
located in Douglas County, Lyon County, and Carson City, Nevada (2018 
Expansion Project or Project), all as more fully set forth in the 
application, which is open to the public for 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, contact 
FERC at [email protected] or call toll-free, (866) 208-3676 or 
TTY, (202) 502-8659.
    Any questions regarding the Paiute application should be directed 
to Mark A. Litwin, Vice President/General Manager, Paiute Pipeline 
Company, P.O. Box 94197, Las Vegas, Nevada 89193-4197, or (702) 364-
3195, or by email [email protected].
    Specifically, the 2018 Expansion Project will involve: (1) 
Installation of 0.42 miles of a new 12-inch-diameter steel pipeline 
loop, (2) installation of 4.19 miles of a new 20-inch-diameter steel 
pipeline loop, (3) abandonment and replacement of 1.58 miles of 
existing 8-inch-diameter steel pipeline with 12-inch-diameter steel 
pipeline, (4) replacement of 2.27 miles of existing 10-inch-diameter 
steel pipeline with 20-inch-diameter steel pipeline, and (5) 
installation of associated auxiliary or appurtenant facilities. The 
Project is designed to provide incremental firm transportation services 
of 5,635 dekatherms per day on Paiute's system. Paiute proposes an 
initial incremental rate to recover the costs of the Project 
facilities. The estimated cost for Paiute's construction of the Project 
is $17,950,000.
    On October 24, 2016, Commission staff granted Paiute's request to 
use the pre-filing process and assigned Docket No. PF17-2-000 to staff 
activities involving the Projects. Now, as of the filing of this 
application on July 5, 2017, the NEPA Pre-Filing Process for this 
project has ended. From this time forward, this proceeding will be 
conducted in Docket No. CP17-471-000 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 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 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 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 7 copies of filings made in the proceeding with the Commission 
and must mail a copy to the applicant and to every other party. 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 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 commentors 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 commentors will not be required to serve copies of filed 
documents on all other parties. However, the non-party commentors 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 5 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 August 9, 2017.

    Dated: July 19, 2017.
Kimberly D. Bose,
Secretary.
