[Docket No. CP25-24-001; Docket No. CP22-486-001]
Texas Eastern Transmission, LP; Notice of Request for Extension
of Time
Take notice that on September 22, 2025, Texas Eastern Transmission,
LP (Texas Eastern) requested that the Commission grant an extension of
time, until June 30, 2027, to construct and place into service its
Appalachia to Market II & Armagh & Entriken HP Replacement Projects
(Project) located in Lebanon, Indiana, and Huntingdon Counties,
Pennsylvania as authorized in the Order Issuing Certificate and
Approving Abandonment (2023 Order) \1\ and amended in the Order
Approving Amendment (2025 Order).\2\ The 2023 Order required Texas
Eastern to complete construction of the Project and make it available
for service within two years of the date of the 2023 Order, or by
October 23, 2025.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Texas Eastern has completed construction and placed into service
the Project facilities at its Armagh Compressor Station in Indiana
County, Pennsylvania on September 6, 2025 and the Line 28 Loop in
Lebanon County, Pennsylvania on September 18, 2025. The only remaining
construction involves the facilities at the Entriken Compressor Station
in Huntingdon County, Pennsylvania. While construction activities at
the Entriken Compressor Station commenced in August 2025, the change in
compressor unit type from electric to gas, as approved in the 2025
Order, resulted in the need for additional time to complete
construction of the compressor station.
This notice establishes a 15-calendar day intervention and comment
period deadline. Any person wishing to comment on Texas Eastern'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,\3\ the Commission will aim
to issue an order acting on the request within 45 days.\4\ The
Commission will address all arguments relating to whether the applicant
has demonstrated there is good cause to grant the extension.\5\ 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).\6\ 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.\7\ The Director of the Office of Energy
Projects, or his or her designee, will act on all of those extension
requests that are uncontested.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\3\ Contested proceedings are those where an intervenor disputes
any material issue of the filing. 18 CFR 385.2201(c)(1).

\5\ Id. at P 40.
\6\ 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.
