This notice establishes a 15-calendar
day intervention and comment period
deadline. Any person wishing to
comment on Eagle LNG’s 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,2 the
Commission will aim to issue an order
acting on the request within 45 days.3
The Commission will address all
arguments relating to whether the
applicant has demonstrated there is
good cause to grant the extension.4 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).5 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.6 The
Director of the Office of Energy Projects,
or his or her designee, will act on all of
those extension requests that are
uncontested.

Register, the Commission provides all

intervenor disputes any material issue of the filing.

5 Similarly, the Commission will not re-litigate
the issuance of an NGA section 3 authorization,
including whether a proposed project is not
inconsistent with the public interest and whether
the Commission’s environmental analysis for the
permit order complied with NEPA.
