[Docket No. CP18-524-000]


Notice of Schedule for Environmental Review of the D'Lo Gas 
Storage, LLC, D'lo Natural Gas Storage Project Amendment

    On July 13, 2018, D'Lo Gas Storage, LLC (DGS) filed an application 
in Docket No. CP18-524-000 requesting a Certificate of Public 
Convenience and Necessity pursuant to section 7(c) of the Natural Gas 
Act to construct and operate certain natural gas storage facilities. 
The proposed project is known as the D'Lo Natural Gas Storage Project 
Amendment (Project), and would allow DGS to modify its previously 
certificated project design for the D'Lo Gas Storage Project in Docket 
No. CP12-39-000 in Simpson and Rankin Counties, Mississippi.
    On July 26, 2018, the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission 
(Commission or FERC) issued its Notice of Application for the Project. 
Among other things, that notice alerted agencies issuing federal 
authorizations of the requirement to complete all necessary reviews and 
to reach a final decision on a request for a federal authorization 
within 90 days of the date of issuance of the Commission staff's 
Environmental Assessment (EA) for the Project. This instant notice 
identifies the FERC staff's planned schedule for the completion of the 
EA for the Project.

Schedule for Environmental Review

Issuance of EA--December 21, 2018
90-day Federal Authorization Decision Deadline--March 21, 2019

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

Project Description

    DGS is proposing the following amendments to the originally 
certificated project design:
     Elimination of the Gulf South Interconnect Lateral and 
Gulf South Meter Station facilities; and
     Relocation of Primary Source Water Wells #2 and #4 and 
Primary Brine Disposal Wells #2 and #4 approximately 0.4 mile south of 
their originally proposed locations.

Background

    On August 27, 2018, the Commission issued a Notice of Intent to 
Prepare an Environmental Assessment for the Proposed D'Lo Natural Gas 
Storage Project Amendment and Request for Comments on Environmental 
Issues (NOI). The NOI was sent to affected landowners; federal, state, 
and local government agencies; elected officials; environmental and 
public interest groups; Native American tribes; other interested 
parties; and local libraries and newspapers. In response to the NOI, 
the Commission received one comment from the Mississippi Department of 
Wildlife, Fisheries, and Parks. The primary issues raised by the 
commentor are impacts on state or federally listed species and species 
of special concern that may occur in the Project area. All substantive 
comments will be addressed in the EA.
