Take notice that on October 29, 2026, Iroquois Gas Transmission System, L.P. (Iroquois) requested that the Commission grant an extension of time, until March 25, 2029, to construct and place into service its Enhancement by Compression Project (Project) located in Greene and Dutchess Counties, New York, and Fairfield and New Haven Counties, Connecticut, as authorized in the Order Issuing Certificate (Order).^[1] The Order required Iroquois to complete construction of the Project and make it available for service within three years of the date of the Order, or by March 25, 2025.

On February 19, 2025, the Commission granted Iroquois an extension of time, until March 25, 2027, to complete construction of the Project and make it available for service.^[2] On September 23, 2026, the Commission issued a notice to proceed with construction of the natural gas compression and gas cooling facilities at the Athens and Dover Compressor Stations in Greene and Dutchess Counties, New York, and the Milford Compressor Station in New Haven County, Connecticut.^[3] Iroquois states that the Brookfield Compressor Station in Fairfield County, Connecticut is the only remaining portion of the Project awaiting final state authorization. Iroquois states that construction of the Project has previously been delayed due to pending state approvals and while it has now received all required Federal authorizations for the Project facilities in New York and all applicable authorizations required for the Milford Compressor Station in New Haven County, Connecticut, final state authorizations are still outstanding for the Brookfield Compressor Station in Fairfield County, Connecticut and therefore requests this extension of time to accommodate those delays.

This notice establishes a 15-calendar day intervention and comment period deadline. Any person wishing to comment on Iroquois' request for an extension of time may do so. No reply comments or answers will be considered. If you wish to obtain legal status by becoming a party to the proceedings for this request, you should, on or before the comment date stated below, file 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 Natural Gas Act (NGA) (18 CFR 157.10).

As a matter of practice, the Commission itself generally acts on requests for extensions of time to complete construction for NGA facilities when such requests are contested before order issuance. For those extension requests that are contested,^[4] the Commission will aim to issue an order acting on the request within 45 days.^[5] The Commission will address all arguments relating to whether the applicant has demonstrated there is good cause to grant the extension.^[6] The Commission will not consider arguments that re-litigate the issuance of the certificate order, including whether the Commission properly found the project to be in the public convenience and necessity and whether the Commission's environmental analysis for the certificate complied with the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA).^[7] At the time a pipeline requests an extension of time, orders on certificates of public convenience and necessity are final and the Commission will not re-litigate their issuance.^[8] The Director of the Office of Energy Projects, or his or her designee, will act on all of those extension requests that are uncontested.
