[Docket No. CP17-101-000]


Transcontinental Gas Pipe Line Company, LLC; Notice of Revised 
Schedule for Environmental Review of the Northeast Supply Enhancement 
Project

    This notice identifies the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission 
(FERC or Commission) staff's revised schedule for the completion of the 
final environmental impact statement (EIS) for Transcontinental Gas 
Pipe Line Company, LLC's (Transco) Northeast Supply Enhancement 
Project. The first notice of schedule, issued on January 3, 2018, 
identified September 17, 2018 as the final EIS issuance date. Staff has 
revised the schedule for issuance of the final EIS based on the current 
status of Transco's General Conformity review and feasible mitigation 
options. The forecasted schedule for the final EIS is also based upon 
Transco providing complete and timely responses to any future data 
requests. In addition, the schedule assumes that the cooperating 
agencies will provide input on their areas of responsibility on a 
timely basis.

Schedule for Environmental Review

Issuance of Notice of Availability of the final EIS--January 25, 2019
90-day Federal Authorization Decision Deadline--April 25, 2019

    If a schedule change becomes necessary, an additional notice will 
be provided so that the relevant agencies are kept informed of the 
project's progress.

Additional Information

    In order to receive notification of the issuance of the EIS and to 
keep track of all formal issuances and submittals in specific dockets, 
the Commission offers a free service called eSubscription. This can 
reduce the amount of time you spend researching proceedings by 
automatically providing you with notification of these filings, 
document summaries, and direct links to the documents. Go to 
www.ferc.gov/docs-filing/esubscription.asp.
    Additional information about the Project is available from the 
Commission's Office of External Affairs at (866) 208-FERC or on the 
FERC website (www.ferc.gov). Using the ``eLibrary'' link, select
