(NEPA)Pre-Filing Process and assigned Docket No. PF06-15-000 to staff activities involving the WIC's expansion project. Now, as of the filing of WIC's application on October 23, 2006, the NEPA Pre-Filing Process for this project has ended. From this time forward, WIC's proceeding will be conducted in Docket No. CP07-14-000, as noted in the caption of this Notice. 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 below listed comment date, 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 14 copies of filings made with the Commission and must mail a copy to the applicant and to every other party in the proceeding. 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 commenters 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 commenters will not be required to serve copies of filed documents on all other parties. However, the non-party commenters 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. Motions to intervene, protests and comments may be filed electronically via the internet in lieu of paper; *see,* 18 CFR 385.2001(a)(1)(iii) and the instructions on the Commission's Web site under the “e-Filing” link. The Commission strongly encourages electronic filings. *Comment Date:* November 24, 2006. Magalie R. Salas, Secretary. [FR Doc.

The staff of the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC or Commission) will prepare an environmental assessment
(EA)that will discuss the environmental impacts of a proposal by Mississippi Hub, L.L.C. (MS HUB) to construct, own, and operate a new salt cavern natural gas storage facility in Simpson and Jefferson Davis Counties, Mississippi. 1 The proposal would provide for the injection, storage, and withdrawal of natural gas in two underground caverns created in the Bond Salt Dome formation using a solution mining (leaching) process. Once complete, the project would provide approximately 12 billion cubic feet
(Bcf)of working gas storage capacity, capable of injecting 600 million cubic feet per day (MMcfd) and delivering gas at maximum rates up to 1,200 MMcfd. Proposed project facilities include gas compression and withdrawal facilities, a leaching plant, an electrical substation, raw water withdrawal and brine disposal facilities, approximately 11.4 miles of pipeline and utility corridor, metering facilities and ancillary equipment. 1 MS HUB's application was filed with the Commission under section 7 of the Natural Gas Act and Part 157 of the Commission's regulations. This notice announces the opening of the public comment period that will be used to gather environmental input from the public and interested agencies on the project. Comments are requested by December 4, 2006. This notice is being sent to potentially affected landowners; Federal, state, and local government agencies; elected officials; environmental and public interest groups; Native American Tribes, other interested parties; local libraries and newspapers. State and local government representatives are asked to notify their constituents of this planned project and encourage them to comment on their areas of concern. If you are a landowner receiving this notice, you may be contacted by a MS HUB company representative about the acquisition of an easement to construct, operate, and maintain the proposed facilities. The company would seek to negotiate a mutually acceptable agreement. However, if the project is approved by the Commission, that approval conveys with it the right of eminent domain. Therefore, if easement negotiations fail to produce an agreement, the natural gas company could initiate condemnation proceedings in accordance with state law. A fact sheet prepared by the FERC entitled “An Interstate Natural Gas Facility On My Land? What Do I Need To Know?” was attached to the project notice MS HUB provided to landowners. This fact sheet addresses a number of typically asked questions, including the use of eminent domain and how to participate in the Commission's proceedings. It is available for viewing on the FERC Internet Web site ( *http://www.ferc.gov* ). Summary of the Proposed Project MS HUB seeks authority to construct and operate the following:
(1)*Natural Gas Handling Facility Site* ; Simpson County (approximately 80 acres). The facility would include two storage caverns; a 29,205 horsepower compressor station; separation, dehydration, metering, and appurtenant facilities; leaching plant; one freshwater well; and a non-jurisdictional electrical substation. Solution mining of the caverns would occur over an approximate five-year time span.
(2)*Primary Raw Water Withdrawal and Brine Disposal Facility* (approximately 45 acres), located south of the Natural Gas Handling Facility in Jefferson Davis County, including three raw water wells, two brine disposal wells, pipelines, roads, and ancillary equipment.
(3)*SONAT (Southern Natural Gas Company) Tie-in and Metering/Secondary Raw Water Withdrawal and Brine Disposal Facility* (approximately 40 acres), located north of the Natural Gas Handling Facility in Simpson County, including two raw water wells, three brine disposal wells, pipelines, roads, ancillary equipment, and metering equipment for an interconnection to the SONAT pipeline system.
(4)*CrossTex Tie-In and Metering Facility Site* (approximately 0.52 acre), located in Simpson County along the West Pipeline Corridor. The site would include metering, pressure control, and related ancillary equipment, pipelines, and roads.
(5)*SONAT Crossover Tie-in and Metering Facility Site* (approximately 0.52 acre), located in Jefferson Davis County at the terminus of the West Pipeline Corridor. The site would include metering, pressure control, and related ancillary equipment, pipelines, and roads.
(6)*Utility and Pipeline Corridors.* Five pipeline corridors (Utility, South, North, East, and West) totaling 11.4 miles, are proposed for the collocation of raw water and brine disposal pipelines, 36-inch-diameter natural gas pipelines, and an overhead electric utility line (non-jurisdictional). All corridors except the 0.2 mile Utility Corridor would parallel existing utility or pipeline right-of-ways. Construction right-of-way widths range from 300-feet-wide (Utility Corridor) to 75-feet-wide (West Pipeline Corridor). Following construction, the permanent pipeline rights-of-way would be 50-feet-wide for all pipeline corridors. Non-jurisdictional facilities would need to be constructed by others in order to complete the project. These facilities include the permanent electrical substation at the Natural Gas Handling Facility Site, overhead electrical power lines, and five permanent electrical power drops. These facilities would be constructed and operated by local electric utility companies. The permanent electric powerline easement along the Utility Corridor would be 175-feet-wide, adjacent to the pipeline right-of-way. The general location of the project facilities is shown in Appendix 1. 2 2 The appendices referenced in this notice are not being printed in the **Federal Register** . Copies of all appendices, other than Appendix 1 (maps), are available on the Commission's Web site at the “eLibrary” link or from the Commission's Public Reference Room, 888 First Street, NE., Washington, DC 20426, or call
(202)502-8371. For instructions on connecting to eLibrary refer to the last page of this notice. Copies of the appendices were sent to all those receiving this notice in the mail. Land Requirements for Construction Construction of the proposed facilities would require about 250.2 acres of land. Following construction, about 196.1 acres would be maintained as new aboveground facility sites or pipeline right-of-way. MS HUB has purchased in fee the tracts for the Natural Gas Handling Facility Site, the Primary Raw Water Withdrawal and Brine Disposal Facility Site, and the SONAT Tie-in and Metering/Secondary Raw Water Withdrawal and Brine Disposal Facility Site. Land requirements for meter stations would be purchased. The remainder of pipeline rights-of-way would be acquired by easement. The EA Process We 3 are preparing this EA to comply with the National Environmental Policy Act
(NEPA)which requires the Commission to take into account the environmental impacts that could result from an action whenever it considers the issuance of a Certificate of Public Convenience and Necessity. NEPA also requires us to discover and address concerns the public may have about proposals. This process is referred to as “scoping”. The main goal of the scoping process is to focus the analysis in the EA on the important environmental issues. By this Notice of Intent, the Commission staff requests public comments on the scope of the issues to address in the EA. All comments received are considered during the preparation of the EA. 3 “We”, “us”, and “our” refer to the environmental staff of the Office of Energy Projects (OEP). By this notice, we are also asking Federal, state, and local agencies with jurisdiction and/or special expertise with respect to environmental issues to formally cooperate with us in the preparation of the EA. Agencies that would like to request cooperating status should follow the instructions for filing comments below. Our independent analysis of the issues will be in the EA. Depending on the comments received during the scoping process, the EA may be published and mailed to Federal, state, and local agencies, public interest groups, interested individuals, affected landowners, newspapers, libraries, and the Commission's official service list for this proceeding. A comment period will be allotted for review if the EA is published. We will consider all comments on the EA before we make our recommendations to the Commission. Currently Identified Environmental Issues In the EA, we will discuss impacts that could occur as a result of the construction and operation of the project. We will also evaluate reasonable alternatives to the proposed project or portions of the project. We have already identified several issues that we think deserve attention based on a preliminary review of the proposed facilities and the environmental information provided by MS HUB. This preliminary list of issues may be changed based on your comments and our analysis. Project-related impact on: • Noise sensitive areas (i.e. residences) located in proximity to construction operations and the proposed compressor facility; • habitat for Federally and state-listed aquatic species downstream from project locations; • gopher tortoise habitat in the project area (state listed endangered species); • 159.3 acres of forest lands; • 58.5 acres of prime farmland soils; • 29 waterbody crossings; and • 2 wetlands. Public Participation You can make a difference by providing us with your specific comments or concerns about the project. By becoming a commentor, your concerns will be addressed in the EA and considered by the Commission. You should focus on the potential environmental effects of the proposal, alternatives to the proposal (including alternative locations/routes), and measures to avoid or lessen environmental impact. The more specific your comments, the more useful they will be. Please carefully follow these instructions to ensure that your comments are received in time and properly recorded: • Send an original and two copies of your letter to: Magalie R. Salas, Secretary, Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, 888 First St., NE., Room 1A, Washington, DC 20426. • Label one copy of the comments for the attention of Gas Branch 3. • Reference Docket No. CP07-4-000. • Mail your comments so that they will be received in Washington, DC on or before December 4, 2006. The Commission strongly encourages electronic filing of comments. Please refer to 18 Code of Federal Regulations
(CFR)385.2001(a)(1)(iii) and the instructions on the Commission's Web site at *http://www.ferc.gov* under the “e-Filing” link and the link to the User's Guide. Prepare your submission in the same manner as you would if filing on paper and save it to a file on your hard drive. Before you can file comments, you will need to create an account by clicking on “Login to File” and then “New User Account.” You will be asked to select the type of filing you are making. This filing is considered a “Comment on Filing.” The determination of whether to distribute the EA for public comment will be based on the response to this notice.

E6-18988 Filed 11-8-06; 8:45 am] BILLING CODE 6717-01-P DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY Federal Energy Regulatory Commission [Docket No. CP06-403-000] Northern Natural Gas Company, LLC; Notice of Availability of the Environmental Assessment for the Proposed Northern Lights Expansion Project November 3, 2006. The staff of the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC or Commission) has prepared an environmental assessment
(EA)on the natural gas pipeline facilities proposed by Northern Natural Gas Company, LLC (Northern) in the above-referenced docket. The EA was prepared to satisfy the requirements of the National Environmental Policy Act. The staff concludes that approval of the proposed project, with appropriate mitigating measures, would not constitute a major federal action significantly affecting the quality of the human environment. The EA assesses the potential environmental effects of the construction and operation of six pipeline loops and extensions (five in Minnesota and one in Iowa), two pipeline replacement segments (both in Minnesota), and a greenfield pipeline in Minnesota. Northern would also abandon and remove a segment of existing pipeline in Minnesota. The project would also require modifications at an existing compressor station and construction and modification at several town border stations
(TBSs)(i.e., meter stations) and regulator stations. Northern states that the purpose of the project is to provide an estimated incremental firm service of 374,225 Decatherms per day (Dth/day) in Northern's market area. The project is designed to optimize the placement of facilities to meet customer growth requirements for a 2-year period while taking into consideration a long-term design that meets customer growth needs thorughout an approximately 20-year period, to 2026. The EA has been placed in the public files of the FERC. A limited number of copies of the EA are available for distribution and public inspection at: Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, Public Reference Room, 888 First Street, N.E., Room 2A, Washington, DC 20426,
(202)502-8371. Copies of the EA have been mailed to federal; state; and local agencies; public interest groups; individuals who have requested the EA; libraries; newspapers; and parties to this proceeding.

E6-18987 Filed 11-8-06; 8:45 am] BILLING CODE 6717-01-P DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY Federal Energy Regulatory Commission Notice of Availability of the Draft Environmental Impact Statement for the Rockies Western Phase Project November 3, 2006. Rockies Express Pipeline, LLC, Docket No. CP06-354-000; TransColorado Gas Transmission Company, Docket No. CP06-401-000; Questar Overthrust Pipeline Company, Docket No. CP06-423-000. The staff of the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC or Commission) has prepared a draft Environmental Impact Statement
(EIS)for the natural gas pipeline facilities proposed by Rockies Express Pipeline LLC (Rockies Express), TransColorado Gas Transmission Company (TransColorado), and Questar Overthrust Pipeline Company (Overthrust) in the above-referenced dockets. These individual corporate entities have submitted separate and distinct proposals to the Commission; however, the FERC views the proposed facilities as interconnected projects that are necessary components of a larger, combined natural gas transportation system. As such, all three project proposals have been included in this draft EIS, and are collectively referred to as the Rockies Western Phase Project (or the Project). The Project facilities would be located in Colorado, Wyoming, Nebraska, Kansas, Missouri, and New Mexico. The draft EIS was prepared to satisfy the requirements of the National Environmental Policy Act
(NEPA)and the Federal Land Management and Policy Act. The U.S. Bureau of Land Management
(BLM)and U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service
(FWS)are federal land management agencies with lands affected by this proposal and are cooperating agencies for the development of the EIS. A cooperating agency has jurisdiction by law or special expertise with respect to potential environmental impacts associated with the proposal, and is involved in the NEPA analysis. The Project would cross federal land under the jurisdiction of the BLM Rawlins, Kemmerer, and Rock Springs Field Offices. Lands administered by the FWS would also be crossed by the Project. Under section 185(f) of the Mineral Leasing Act of 1920, the BLM has the authority to issue Right-of-Way Grants for all affected federal lands. The FERC staff has concluded that if the Rockies Western Phase Project is constructed and operated in accordance with applicable laws and regulations, the mitigation proposed by Rockies Express, TransColorado, and Overthrust, and the staffs' additional mitigation recommendations, the Project would have limited adverse environmental impact and would be an environmentally acceptable action. As currently proposed, the Rockies Western Phase Project would consist of the construction and operation of approximately 796 miles of natural gas pipeline and a total of 237,320 horsepower of new compression. Following completion of the proposed facilities, the Project would transport up to 1.5 billion cubic feet of natural gas per day. Specifically, the draft EIS addresses the potential environmental effects of the construction and operation of the following natural gas pipeline facilities proposed by Rockies Express, TransColorado, and Overthrust: Rockies Express (REX-West Project) • 712.7 miles of 42-inch-diameter natural gas pipeline in Wyoming, Colorado, Nebraska, Kansas, and Missouri; • 5.3 miles of 24-inch-diameter pipeline (Echo Springs Lateral) in Sweetwater and Carbon Counties, Wyoming; • five new compressor stations (Cheyenne Compressor Station in Weld County, Colorado; Julesburg Compressor Station in Sedgwick County, Colorado; Echo Springs Compressor Station in Sweetwater County, Wyoming; the Steele City Compressor Station in Gage County, Nebraska; and Turney Compressor Station in Clinton County, Missouri); • four new compressor units at two previously certificated compressor stations (Meeker Compressor Station in Rio Blanco County, Colorado and Wamsutter Compressor Station in Sweetwater County, Wyoming); and • 8 new meter stations, 41 mainline valves, and associated facilities. TransColorado (Blanco to Meeker Project) • 392 feet of discharge line and 478 feet of suction line, 1,300 feet of 24-inch-diameter pipeline, and 60 feet of 16-inch-diameter pipeline in San Juan County, New Mexico; • two new compressor stations (Blanco Compression Station in San Juan County, New Mexico and the Conn Creek Compressor Station in Garfield County, Colorado); • modifications at three existing compressor stations (Mancos Compressor Station in Montezuma County, Colorado; Redvale Compressor Station in Montrose County, Colorado; and Whitewater Compressor Station in Mesa County, Colorado); and • one new meter station. Overthrust (Wamsutter Expansion Project) • 77.2 miles of 36-inch-diameter natural gas pipeline in Sweetwater County, Wyoming; • 0.1 mile of 36-inch-diameter pipeline (Opal Extension) and 0.1 mile of 20-inch-diameter pipeline (TL-90 Tie-in); • two new compressor stations in Wyoming (Roberson Compressor Station in Lincoln County and Rock Springs Compressor Station in Sweetwater County); and • two new meter stations, three new block valves, and associated facilities.

(202)564-8955; e-mail address: *moseley.pamela@epa.gov* . SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: I. What Information is EPA Particularly Interested in? Pursuant to section 3506(c)(2)(A) of the PRA, EPA specifically solicits comments and information to enable it to: 1. Evaluate whether the proposed collection of information is necessary for the proper performance of the functions of the Agency, including whether the information will have practical utility. 2. Evaluate the accuracy of the Agency's estimates of the burden of the proposed collection of information, including the validity of the methodology and assumptions used. 3. Enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to be collected. 4. Minimize the burden of the collection of information on those who are to respond, including through the use of appropriate automated electronic, mechanical, or other technological collection techniques or other forms of information technology, e.g., permitting electronic submission of responses. In particular, EPA is requesting comments from very small businesses (those that employ less than 25) on examples of specific additional efforts that EPA could make to reduce the paperwork burden for very small businesses affected by this collection. II. What Should I Consider when I Prepare My Comments for EPA? You may find the following suggestions helpful for preparing your comments: 1. Explain your views as clearly as possible and provide specific examples. 2. Describe any assumptions that you used. 3. Provide copies of any technical information and/or data you used that support your views. 4. If you estimate potential burden or costs, explain how you arrived at the estimate that you provide. 5. Provide specific examples to illustrate your concerns. 6. Offer alternative ways to improve the collection activity. 7. Make sure to submit your comments by the deadline identified under DATES . 8. To ensure proper receipt by EPA, be sure to identify the docket ID number assigned to this action in the subject line on the first page of your response. You may also provide the name, date, and **Federal Register** citation. III. What Information Collection Activity or ICR Does this Action Apply to? *Affected entities* : Entities potentially affected by this action are companies under contract to EPA to provide certain services and whose employees must have access to the Toxic Substances Control Act
(TSCA)CBI to perform their duties. *Title* : Request for Contractor Access to TSCA CBI. *ICR numbers* : EPA ICR No. 1250.08, OMB Control No. 2070-0075. *ICR status* : This ICR is currently scheduled to expire on August 31, 2007. An Agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required to respond to, a collection of information, unless it displays a currently valid OMB control number. The OMB control numbers for EPA's regulations in title 40 of the CFR, after appearing in the **Federal Register** when approved, are listed in 40 CFR part 9, are displayed either by publication in the **Federal Register** or by other appropriate means, such as on the related collection instrument or form, if applicable. The display of OMB control numbers in certain EPA regulations is consolidated in 40 CFR part 9. *Abstract* : Certain employees of companies working under contract to EPA require access to TSCA CBI collected under the authority of TSCA in order to perform their official duties. The Office of Pollution Prevention and Toxics (OPPT), which is responsible for maintaining the security of TSCA confidential business information, requires that all individuals desiring access to TSCA CBI obtain and annually renew official clearance to TSCA CBI. As part of the process for obtaining TSCA CBI clearance, OPPT requires certain information about the contracting company and about each contractor employee requesting TSCA CBI clearance, primarily the name, social security number and EPA identification badge number of the employee, the type of TSCA CBI clearance requested and the justification for such clearance, and the signature of the employee to an agreement with respect to access to and use of TSCA CBI. Responses to the collection of information are voluntary, but failure to provide the requested information will prevent a contractor employee from obtaining clearance to TSCA CBI. EPA will observe strict confidentiality precautions with respect to the information collected on individual employees, based on the Privacy Act of 1974, as outlined in the ICR and in the collection instrument. *Burden statement* : The annual public reporting and recordkeeping burden for this collection of information is estimated to average 1.6 hours per response. Burden means the total time, effort, or financial resources expended by persons to generate, maintain, retain, or disclose or provide information to or for a Federal Agency. This includes the time needed to review instructions; develop, acquire, install, and utilize technology and systems for the purposes of collecting, validating, and verifying information, processing and maintaining information, and disclosing and providing information; adjust the existing ways to comply with any previously applicable instructions and requirements which have subsequently changed; train personnel to be able to respond to a collection of information; search data sources; complete and review the collection of information; and transmit or otherwise disclose the information. The ICR provides a detailed explanation of this estimate, which is only briefly summarized here: *Estimated total number of potential respondents* : 28. *Frequency of response* : On occasion (one time only per individual employee needing TSCA CBI clearance). *Estimated total average number of responses for each respondent* : 10. *Estimated total annual burden hours* : 446 hours. *Estimated total annual costs* : $20,466. This includes an estimated burden cost of $20,466 and an estimated cost of $0 for capital investment or maintenance and operational costs. IV. Are There Changes in the Estimates from the Last Approval? There is an increase of 31 hours in the total estimated respondent burden compared with that identified in the ICR currently approved by OMB. This increase reflects an increase in the number of contractor employees needing TSCA CBI clearance. This change is an adjustment. V. What is the Next Step in the Process for this ICR? EPA will consider the comments received and amend the ICR as appropriate. The final ICR package will then be submitted to OMB for review and approval pursuant to 5 CFR 1320.12. EPA will issue another **Federal Register** notice pursuant to 5 CFR 1320.5(a)(1)(iv) to announce the submission of the ICR to OMB and the opportunity to submit additional comments to OMB. If you have any questions about this ICR or the approval process, please contact the technical person listed under FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT .
