proposes to draft in consultation with
certain parties listed below. The
executed programmatic agreement for
each project would be incorporated into
any Order issuing a license for the
respective project.
Duke Power, as licensee for Project
Nos. 2619 and 2603, and the Eastern

DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY
Federal Energy Regulatory
Commission
[Docket No. AD06–5–000]
Office of Energy Projects (OEP); Notice
of Intent to Prepare an Effectiveness
Assessment of the Natural Gas Facility
Interagency Agreement
February 28, 2006.
In May 2002, the Federal Energy
Regulatory Commission (FERC or
Commission), the Bureau of Land
Management, the Fish and Wildlife
Service, the Environmental Protection
Agency, the Forest Service, the
Department of Transportation, the Army
Corps of Engineers, the National Marine
Fisheries Service, the Advisory Council
on Historic Preservation, and the
Department of Energy signed an
agreement entitled ‘‘Interagency
Agreement on Early Coordination of
Required Environmental and Historic
Preservation Reviews Conducted in
Conjunction with the Issuance of
Authorizations to Construct and Operate
Interstate Natural Gas Pipelines
Certificated by the Federal Energy
Regulatory Commission’’ (IA).
As a result of the IA, the signatory
agencies formed a working group to
coordinate each agency’s
implementation of the IA (Working
Group). Among its tasks, the Working
Group committed to the periodic
evaluation of the effectiveness of the IA.
On behalf of the Working Group, FERC
is leading the effort to initiate this
assessment. To achieve the maximum
benefit, including evaluation of the
Commission’s Pre-Filing Process, a
series of telephone conferences and
interactive public workshops are
planned. The participants will include
individuals who have participated in
the Commission’s National
Environmental Policy Act (NEPA)
process since the enactment of the IA,
and will cover both pipeline and
liquefied natural gas (LNG) projects in
various regions of the United States.
These include individuals from Federal,
state and local agencies, regulated
natural industry, Native American
tribes, affected property owners,
citizens, non-government organizations
and other stakeholders.
Since many of the signatory federal
agencies have prepared internal
guidelines to more effectively
implement the IA, the assessment will
also collect feedback on each agency’s
implementation, to determine whether
they are effective or need revision to
improve the review of future natural gas
projects.
