E7-16739 Filed 8-23-07; 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 Proposed Bradwood Landing LNG Terminal and Pipeline Project August 17, 2007. Bradwood Landing LLC (Docket No. CP06-365-000); NorthernStar Energy LLC (Docket Nos. CP06-366-000, CP06-376-000, and CP06-377-000) The staff of the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC or Commission) has prepared this draft Environmental Impact Statement
(EIS)for a liquefied natural gas
(LNG)import terminal proposed by Bradwood Landing LLC and the associated natural gas sendout pipeline facilities proposed by NorthernStar Energy LLC in the above-referenced dockets. The LNG import terminal would be located at Bradwood, about 38 miles up the Columbia River from its mouth, in Clatsop County, Oregon, and the sendout pipeline would be located in Clatsop and Columbia Counties, Oregon, and Cowlitz County, Washington. The draft EIS was prepared to satisfy the requirements of the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA). The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (COE), U.S. Coast Guard (Coast Guard), and the U.S. Department of Transportation
(DOT)are federal cooperating agencies for the development of this EIS. A federal cooperating agency has jurisdiction by law or special expertise with respect to any environmental impact involved with the proposal and is involved in the NEPA analysis. The COE is responsible for issuing permits under section 10 of the Rivers and Harbor Act and section 404 of the Clean Water Act. The Coast Guard is responsible for the safety and security of port areas and navigable waterways, and would issue a Letter of Recommendation indicating if the Columbia River waterway to the proposed LNG terminal is suitable for LNG marine traffic. The DOT is responsible for enforcing safety regulations and standards for the LNG terminal and the design and operation of the natural gas sendout pipeline. The FERC is the lead federal agency for compliance with the NEPA, and for authorization of the Project under sections 3 and 7 of the Natural Gas Act. The Commission will use the EIS to consider the environmental impacts that would result if it decides to authorize the Project. The cooperating agencies and the FERC staff conclude that the proposed Project, with the appropriate mitigation measures as recommended, would have limited adverse environmental impact. The general purpose of the proposed Project is to provide a new source of natural gas to the Pacific Northwest through the importation of LNG. LNG is natural gas that has been cooled to about −260 degrees Fahrenheit, reducing its volume about 600 times from a gas to a liquid, allowing for its transport over long distances across oceans in specially designed ships from its point of origin in foreign countries with abundant natural gas reserves. At the import terminal at Bradwood, the LNG would be off-loaded from the LNG transport ships, stored as a liquid, vaporized back into natural gas, and sent out via the associated pipeline to the existing interstate natural gas pipeline network. The Bradwood Landing LNG import terminal would have a peak sendout capacity of about 1.3 billion cubic feet per day
(bcfd)of natural gas. The draft EIS addresses the potential environmental impacts from the construction and operation of the following facilities proposed by Bradwood Landing LLC: • A dredged LNG ship maneuvering area off of the Columbia River navigation channel; • A single ship berth capable of receiving LNG ships with cargo capacities ranging from 100,000 to 200,000 cubic meters (m 3 ); • A set of four 16-inch-diameter LNG unloading arms, including two liquid unloading arms, one hybrid arm, and a vapor return arm on the jetty, and a 1,240-foot-long, 32-inch-diameter cryogenic LNG transfer pipeline and 6-inch-diameter LNG recirculation pipeline extending from the berth to the LNG storage tanks; • Two insulated LNG storage tanks, each with a useable volume of over 1 million barrels, or 160,000 m 3 ; • A vapor management system to handle the boil-off gas
(BOG)that occurs during the unloading process, including vapor return blowers and knockout drum on the jetty, vapor handling pipework, two BOG compressors, and a BOG condenser; • An LNG sendout system, consisting of six submerged in-tank LNG discharge pumps (three in each storage tank) and five sendout pumps; • Seven submerged combustion vaporizers, of which six would normally operate and one would be a back-up, to re-gasify the LNG and provide natural gas through a metering station to the inlet valve of the sendout pipeline; • Utilities, including a 1.5-mile-long 115-kilovolt power line and switchyard, and an 800-kilowatt emergency diesel-fueled generator; • Support buildings, including a warehouse/administrative building, control building, switch rooms, compressor building, and gatehouse/security building; and • A fire protection and detection system, including a firewater pumphouse, and security system including fencing. The natural gas pipeline facilities proposed by NorthernStar Energy LLC addressed in the draft EIS include: • A 36.3-mile-long, underground, high-pressure welded steel sendout pipeline consisting of approximately 18.9 miles of 36-inch-diameter pipeline in Clatsop and Columbia Counties, Oregon and 17.4 miles of 30-inch-diameter pipeline in Columbia County, Oregon and Cowlitz County, Washington; • Five meter stations, including at the LNG terminal, the Georgia-Pacific Wauna paper mill delivery point, the interconnection with the Northwest Natural Gas Company intrastate pipeline system, the Portland General Electric Company Beaver Power Plant delivery point, and interconnection with Williams Northwest Pipeline Company interstate pipeline system; and • at least five mainline block valves, two pig 1 launchers, and two pig receivers. 1 A “pig” in an internal devise used to dry, clean, and inspect a pipeline.

In accordance with the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 and the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission's (Commission) regulations, 18 CFR Part 380 (Order No. 486, 52 FR 47897), the Office of Energy Projects has reviewed the application for license for the Mystic Lake Hydroelectric Project, located on West Rosebud Creek, in Stillwater and Carbon counties, Montana, and has prepared an Environmental Assessment
(EA)for the project. The project occupies about 674 acres of federal lands in the Custard National Forest managed by the U.S. Forest Service. The EA contains Commission staff's analysis of the potential environmental effects of the project and concludes that licensing the project, with appropriate environmental protective measures, would not constitute a major federal action that would significantly affect the quality of the human environment. A copy of the EA is available for review at the Commission in the Public Reference Room or may be viewed on the Commission's Web site 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 Online Support at *FERCOnlineSupport@ferc.gov* or toll-free at

E7-16750 Filed 8-23-07; 8:45 am] BILLING CODE 6717-01-P DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY Federal Energy Regulatory Commission [Docket No. PF07-9-000] Steckman Ridge, L.P.; Notice of Intent To Prepare an Environmental Assessment for the Proposed Steckman Ridge Storage Project and Request for Comments on Environmental Issues August 20, 2007. The staff of the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC or Commission) will prepare an environmental assessment
(EA)that will address the environmental impacts of the Steckman Ridge Storage Project proposed by Steckman Ridge, L.P. (Steckman). The Commission will use the EA in its decision-making process to determine whether or not to authorize the project. This notice explains the scoping process the FERC staff will use to gather input from the public and interested agencies on the project. Your input will help us determine the issues that need to be evaluated in the EA. Please note that the scoping period will close on September 20, 2007. This notice is being 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. We 1 encourage government representatives to notify their constituents of this planned project and encourage them to comment on their areas of concern. 1 “We,” “us,” and “our” refer to the environmental staff of the FERC's Office of Energy Projects. If you are a landowner receiving this notice, you may be contacted by a Steckman representative about the acquisition of an easement to construct, operate, and maintain the proposed project facilities. The pipeline company would seek to negotiate a mutually acceptable agreement. However, if the project is approved by the FERC, that approval conveys with it the right of eminent domain. Therefore, if easement negotiations fail to produce an agreement, the pipeline 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?” is available for viewing on the FERC Internet Web site ( *http://www.ferc.gov* ). This fact sheet addresses a number of typically asked questions, including the use of eminent domain and how to participate in the FERC's proceedings. Summary of the Proposed Project Steckman proposes to convert a depleted natural gas production field into a multi-cycle natural gas storage facility located in Bedford County, Pennsylvania. The proposed facility would have about 17.7 billion cubic feet
(Bcf)total capacity (up to 12 Bcf would be working capacity and 5.7 Bcf would be base gas). The proposed project would include: Removal and/or abandonment of existing production field piping and aboveground equipment; Conversion of 5 depleted production wells into storage wells; Drilling and development of 18 new storage wells and construction of wellhead facilities; Construction of a storage field pipeline network and associated aboveground facilities including launcher/receiver facilities and valve sites; and Construction of one 9,000 horsepower compressor station, including a meter and regulator station, common launcher and receiver facility, and other associate appurtenances. The storage field piping network would include the Trunk Line 91 (about 3.13 miles of 16-inch diameter pipeline), Trunk Line 90 (about 4.36 miles of 16-inch diameter pipeline), and 23 well laterals totaling 3.6 miles of 6-inch, 8-inch, and 10-inch diameter pipeline. Steckman plans to file its certificate application in November 2007 and anticipates receiving a Commission certificate by April 2008. A general location of the proposed project is provided 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 website at the “eLibrary” link or from the Commission's Public Reference Room, 888 First Street, N.E., Washington, D.C. 20426, or call
(202)502-8371. For instructions on connecting to eLibrary refer to the Public Participation section of this notice. Copies of the appendices were sent to all those receiving this notice in the mail. Requests for detailed maps of the proposed facilities should be made directly to Iroquois. Land Requirements for Construction The Steckman Ridge Storage Project is in the preliminary planning stage. The precise facility design, pipeline route, rights-of-way, and other details have not yet been finalized. The proposed storage field piping network is being planned to follow routes of the existing production rights-of-way where possible. Specific information on the proposed project location and the land used by it will be made available to the public when it is finalized. The proposed storage field would be located on about 1,800 acres, and a buffer zone surrounding the filed would be established on about 2,900 acres. Construction of the proposed compressor station would require about 35 acres of land, and operation of the station would require maintaining about 23 acres of the affected land. The EA Process The National Environmental Policy Act
(NEPA)requires the Commission to take into account the environmental impacts that could result from an action when it considers whether or not an interstate natural gas pipeline should be approved. The FERC will use the EA to consider the environmental impact that could result if the Steckman Ridge Storage Project is authorized under section 7 of the Natural Gas Act. NEPA also requires us to discover and address concerns the public may have about proposals to be considered by the Commission. 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. With this Notice of Intent, the Commission staff is requesting public comments on the scope of the issues to be addressed in the EA. All comments received will be considered during preparation of the EA. Our independent analysis of the issues will be included in the EA. We will also evaluate possible alternatives to the proposed project or portions of the project, and make recommendations on how to lessen or avoid impacts on affected resources. The EA will be mailed to federal, state, and local government agencies; elected officials; environmental and public interest groups; Native American tribes; affected landowners; commentors; other interested parties; local libraries and newspapers; and the FERC's official service list for this proceeding. A 30-day comment period will be allotted for review of the EA. We will consider all comments on the EA before we make our recommendations to the Commission. To ensure that your comments are considered, please follow the instructions in the Public Participation section of this notice. Although no formal application has been filed, the FERC staff has already initiated its NEPA review under its Pre-filing Process. The purpose of the Pre-filing Process is to encourage the early involvement of interested stakeholders and to identify and resolve issues before an application is filed with the FERC. With this notice, we are asking federal, state, and local governmental agencies with jurisdiction and/or special expertise with respect to environmental issues, to express their interest in becoming cooperating agencies for the preparation of the EA. These agencies may choose to participate once they have evaluated the proposal relative to their responsibilities. Agencies that would like to request cooperating status should follow the instructions for filing comments provided below (see *Public Participation* ). Currently Identified Environmental Issues The EA will discuss impacts that could occur as a result of the construction and operation of the proposed project. We have already identified several issues that we think deserve attention based on a preliminary review of the project site and the facility information provided by Steckman. This preliminary list of issues may be changed based on your comments and our analysis. • Potential impacts on perennial and intermittent streams and waterbodies. • Evaluation of temporary and permanent impacts on wetlands. • Potential effect on federally and state-listed species. • Potential visual effects of the aboveground facilities on surrounding areas. • Potential impacts to local air and noise quality associated with construction and operation. • Public safety and potential hazards associated with the transport of natural gas and the proposed compressor facilities. Public Participation You can make a difference by providing us with your specific comments or concerns about the proposed project. By becoming a commenter, your concerns will be addressed in the EA and considered by the Commission. Your comments should focus on the potential environmental effects, reasonable alternatives (including alternative facility sites and pipeline routes), and measures to avoid or lessen environmental impact. The more specific your comments, the more useful they will be. To ensure that your comments are timely and properly recorded, please mail your comments so that they will be received in Washington, DC on or before September 20, 2007 and carefully follow these instructions: Send an original and two copies of your letter to: Kimberly D. Bose, Secretary, Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, 888 First St., NE., Room 1A, Washington, DC 20426. Label one copy of your comments for the attention of Gas Branch 2, DG2E. Reference Docket No. PF07-9-000 on the original and both copies. The Commission strongly encourages electronic filing of any comments in response to this Notice of Intent. For information on electronically filing comments, please see 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, as well as information in 18 CFR 385.2001(a)(1)(iii). Before you can submit comments, you will need to create a free account, which can be created on-line. Based on the comments we receive on the project, we may hold a public scoping meeting. A public scoping meeting is designed to provide another opportunity to offer comments on the proposed project. Interested groups and individuals are encouraged to attend the meeting and to present comments on the issues they believe should be addressed in the EA. A transcript of the meeting would be generated so that your comments would be accurately recorded. When Steckman submits its application for authorization to construct and operate the Steckman Ridge Storage Project, the Commission will publish a Notice of Application in the **Federal Register** and will establish a deadline for interested persons to intervene in the proceeding. Because the Commission's Pre-filing Process occurs before an application to begin a proceeding is officially filed, petitions to intervene during this process are premature and will not be accepted by the Commission. Environmental Mailing List An effort is being made to send this notice to all individuals, organizations, and government entities interested in and/or potentially affected by the proposed project. This includes all landowners who are potential right-of-way grantors, whose property may be used temporarily for project purposes, or who own homes within distances defined in the Commission's regulations of certain aboveground facilities. If you received this notice, you are currently on the environmental mailing list for this project. If you want to remain on our mailing list, please return the attached Information Request (Appendix 2).

For further information about the electronic docket, go to *http://www.regulations.gov.* *Title:* Request for Contractor Access to TSCA Confidential Business Information (CBI). *ICR Numbers:* EPA ICR No. 1250.08, OMB Control No. 2070-0075. *ICR Status:* This ICR is scheduled to expire on August 31, 2007. Under OMB regulations, the Agency may continue to conduct or sponsor the collection of information while this submission is pending at OMB. 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:* EPA procures contract support to facilitate the performance of certain duties. As authorized by section 14 of TSCA, certain employees of companies working under contract to EPA require access to TSCA confidential business information collected under the authority of TSCA in order to perform their official duties. Each contractor employee who will use TSCA CBI in the performance of his or her duties must be authorized for access to TSCA CBI through a multi-step process. The TSCA CBI Protection Manual provides Federal and contractor employees with guidelines and operating procedures for handling TSCA CBI while performing their official duties, as well as the procedures to obtain authorization for access to TSCA CBI. 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, EPA badge number or other identification 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. For purposes of this information collection, contractor personnel must complete and submit EPA Form 7740-6, titled “TSCA CBI Access Request, Agreement, and Approval”. Responses to the collection of information are required in order for a contractor employee to obtain clearance to access 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; 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. *Respondents/Affected Entities:* Entities potentially affected by this action are companies under contract to the Environmental Protection Agency to provide certain services, whose employees must have access to TSCA confidential business information to perform their duties. *Frequency of Collection:* On occasion. *Estimated Average Number of Responses for Each Respondent:* 10. *Estimated No. of Respondents:* 28. *Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden:* 446 hours. *Estimated Total Annual Costs:* $20,466. *Changes in Burden Estimates:* This request reflects an increase of 31 hours (from 415 hours to 446 hours) in the total estimated respondent burden from that currently in the OMB inventory. This increase represents an increase in the number of contractor employees that need clearance. The change is an adjustment. Dated: August 16, 2007.

Ms. Benjamin can also be reached via electronic mail at *Benjamin.Lynorae@epa.gov.* The finding is available at EPA's conformity Web site: *http://www.epa.gov/otaq/stateresources/transconf/currsips.htm.* SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Correction EPA is correcting the error in the **Federal Register** notice, published on April 9, 2007 (72 FR 17550), which announced the adequacy finding for the 2006 MVEBs. In that notice on page 17550, in the third column, the table labeled “Atlanta 8-Hour Ozone MVEBs,” EPA inadvertently identified the NO <sup>X</sup> MVEB as 172.27 tpd and the VOC MVEB as 306.75 tpd. This action corrects that error. As announced in EPA's January 24, 2007, letter from Beverly Banister, Director of the Air, Pesticides and Toxics Management Division, to Heather Abrams, Chief of EPD's Air Protection Branch, the correct 2006 MVEBs for the Atlanta 8-Hour Ozone Area, as established by the Early Progress Plan, are provided in the following table.

What Action is EPA Taking? This document extends the public comment periods for the fumigants chloropicrin, dazomet, 1,3-dichloropropene, metam potassium, metam sodium, and methyl bromide established in the **Federal Register** issued on May 2, 2007 (72 FR 24290, FRL-8127-7), (72 FR 24292, FRL-8126-7), (72 FR 24294, FRL-8124-8), (72 FR 24295, FRL-8125-9), and (72 FR 24297, FRL-8125-7). In those documents, EPA announced the availability of the risk assessments and risk mitigation proposal and opened 60-day public comment periods. A subsequent **Federal Register** Notice issued on June 20, 2007 (FRL-8145-6) extended the comment periods to September 3, 2007. EPA is hereby extending the comment periods, which were set to end on September 3, 2007 to November 3, 2007. III. What is the Agency's Authority for Taking this Action? Section 4(g)(2) of the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act (FIFRA), as amended, directs that, after submission of all data concerning a pesticide active ingredient, the Administrator shall determine whether pesticides containing such active ingredient are eligible for reregistration. Further provisions are made to allow a public comment period. However, the Administrator may extend the comment period if additional time for comment is requested. In this case, the National Potato Council as well as McDermott, Will, and Emery LLP, on behalf of the Minor Crop Farmer Alliance (MCFA), have requested additional time to develop comments. MCFA is an alliance of more than 100 national and regional organizations and individuals representing growers, shippers, packers, handlers and processors of various agricultural commodities. The Agency believes that an additional 60 days is warranted. List of Subjects Environmental protection, Fumigants, Pesticides and pests. Dated: August 20, 2007.
