BILLING CODE 6717-01-P DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY Federal Energy Regulatory Commission [Docket No. CP25-207-000] Distrigas of Massachusetts LLC; Notice of Schedule for the Preparation of an Environmental Assessment for the Bog Compressor Project On April 14, 2025, Distrigas of Massachusetts LLC filed an application in Docket No. CP25-207-000 requesting Authorization pursuant to section 3 of the Natural Gas Act to construct and operate certain natural gas facilities. The proposed project is known as the BOG Compressor Project (Project) and would involve installing a redundant boil-off gas
(BOG)compressor to capture BOG emissions from the existing liquefied natural gas storage system. On April 25, 2025, 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 document for the Project. This notice identifies Commission staff's intention to prepare an environmental assessment
(EA)for the Project and the planned schedule for the completion of the environmental review. 1 1 For tracking purposes under the National Environmental Policy Act, the unique identification number for documents relating to this environmental review is EAXX-019-20-000-1747049057. Schedule for Environmental Review Issuance of EA June 27, 2025 90-day Federal Authorization Decision Deadline 2 September 25, 2025 2 The Commission's deadline applies to the decisions of other Federal agencies, and State agencies acting under federally delegated authority, that are responsible for Federal authorizations, permits, and other approvals necessary for proposed projects under the Natural Gas Act. Per 18 CFR 157.22(a), the Commission's deadline for other agency's decisions applies unless a schedule is otherwise established by Federal law. 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 The proposed Project includes construction and operation of the following facilities within the existing liquefied natural gas storage system fenceline: • one 500-horsepower
(hp)electric driven BOG compressor unit; • modifications to the Water/Glycol Heating and Cooling System; • new heating, ventilation, and air conditioning system on the existing BOG compressor building; • electrical service connection and new medium voltage to low voltage transformer within the Terminal; • 400 feet of new 12-inch-diameter piping; and • ancillary systems for process control, instrumentation, communications, and hazard detection, which will be integrated with the existing plant control system.
