Mountain Valley Pipeline, LLC; Notice of Revised Schedule for Environmental Review of the Southgate Project

This notice identifies the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission staff's revised schedule for the completion of the final Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) for Mountain Valley Pipeline, LLC's Southgate Project. The first notice of schedule, issued on March 15, 2019, identified December 19, 2019 as the final EIS issuance date. However, Mountain Valley filed additional information on October 23, 2019 that included changes to the route and revised data for resource impacts. Because the supplemental information needs further review and required an additional notice to the landowners affected by the route changes, issued on November 15, 2019, Commission staff has revised the schedule for issuance of the final EIS.

Schedule for Environmental Review

Issuance of Notice of Availability of the final EIS February 14, 2020

90-day Federal Authorization Decision Deadline May 14, 2020

If a schedule change becomes necessary, an additional notice will be provided so that the relevant agencies are kept informed of the project's progress.
