Federal Energy Regulatory Commission
[Docket No. CP21-492-000]
Rover Pipeline LLC; Notice of Availability of the Environmental
Assessment for the Proposed Rover-Brightmark Receipt and Delivery Meter
Station Project
The staff of the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC or
Commission) has prepared an environmental assessment (EA) for the
Rover-Brightmark Receipt and Delivery Meter Station Project, proposed
by Rover Pipeline LLC (Rover) in the above-referenced docket. Rover
requests authorization to construct and operate a receipt and delivery
meter station in Lenawee County, Michigan.
The EA assesses the potential environmental effects of the
construction and operation of the Rover-Brightmark Receipt and Delivery
Meter Station Project in accordance with the requirements of the
National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA). The FERC staff concludes that
approval of the proposed project, with appropriate mitigating measures,
would not constitute a major federal action significantly affecting the
quality of the human environment.
The Project purpose is to allow Rover to receive up to 1,500
dekatherms per day of natural gas from the Brightmark SunRyz Renewable
Natural Gas Project and to allow Rover to deliver up to 100 dekatherms
per day of natural gas to fuel the Brightmark Renewable Natural Gas
facility equipment. The proposed Rover-Brightmark Receipt and Delivery
Meter Station Project includes two, 2-inch-diameter hot taps, two tap
valves, 65 feet of interconnecting pipe (30 feet of receipt pipe and 35
feet of delivery pipe), two Coriolis Meter Skids, gas quality building,
a measurement building, and satellite communications.
The Commission mailed a copy of the Notice of Availability to
federal, state, and local government representatives and agencies;
elected officials; environmental and public interest groups; Native
American tribes; potentially affected landowners and other interested
individuals and groups; and newspapers and libraries in the project
area. The EA is only available in electronic format. It may be viewed
and downloaded from the FERC's website (<a href="http://www.ferc.gov">www.ferc.gov</a>), on the natural
gas environmental documents page (<a href="https://www.ferc.gov/industries-data/natural-gas/environment/environmental-documents">https://www.ferc.gov/industries-data/natural-gas/environment/environmental-documents</a>). In addition, the EA

The EA is not a decision document. It presents Commission staff's
independent analysis of the environmental issues for the Commission to
consider when addressing the merits of all issues in this proceeding.
Any person wishing to comment on the EA may do so. Your comments should
focus on the EA's disclosure and discussion of potential environmental
effects, reasonable alternatives, and measures to avoid or lessen
environmental impacts. The more specific your comments, the more useful
they will be. To ensure that the Commission has the opportunity to
consider your comments prior to making its decision on this project, it
is important that we receive your comments in Washington, DC on or
before 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time on March 28, 2022.
For your convenience, there are three methods you can use to file
your comments to the Commission. The Commission encourages electronic

Filing environmental comments will not give you intervenor status,
but you do not need intervenor status to have your comments considered.
Only intervenors have the right to seek rehearing or judicial review of
the Commission's decision. At this point in this proceeding, the
timeframe for filing timely intervention requests has expired. Any
person seeking to become a party to the proceeding must file a motion
to intervene out-of-time pursuant to Rule 214(b)(3) and (d) of the
Commission's Rules of Practice and Procedures (18 CFR 385.214(b)(3) and
(d)) and show good cause why the time limitation should be waived.
Motions to intervene are more fully described at <a href="https://www.ferc.gov/ferc-online/ferc-online/how-guides">https://www.ferc.gov/ferc-online/ferc-online/how-guides</a>.

Commission's Office of External Affairs, at (866) 208-FERC, or on the

also provides access to the texts of all formal documents issued by the
Commission, such as orders, notices, and rulemakings.

and submittals in specific dockets. This can reduce the amount of time
you spend researching proceedings by automatically providing you with
notification of these filings, document summaries, and direct links to
the documents. Go to <a href="https://www.ferc.gov/ferc-online/overview">https://www.ferc.gov/ferc-online/overview</a> to
