[Docket No. CP19-118-001]
Trans-Foreland Pipeline Company, LLC; Notice of Request for
Extension of Time
Take notice that on November 12, 2025, Trans-Foreland Pipeline
Company, LLC (Trans-Foreland) requested that the Commission grant an
extension of time, until December 17, 2028, to construct and place into
service its Kenai LNG Cool Down Project (Project) located in Nikiski,
Kenai Peninsula Borough, Alaska as authorized in the Order Granting
Authorization Under Section 3 of the Natural Gas Act (Order).\1\ The
Order required Trans-Foreland to complete construction of the Project
and make it available for service within two years of the date of the
Order, or by December 17, 2022. On August 16, 2022, the Commission
granted Trans-Foreland an extension of time, until December 17, 2025,
to complete construction of its Project and make it available for
service.

\1\ Trans-Foreland Pipeline Company LLC, 173 FERC ] 61,253
(2020).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Trans-Foreland asserts that natural gas demand is projected to
exceed supply in southcentral Alaska beginning 2027. Trans-Foreland
states that its new owner, Harvest Alaska, LLC, has continued
commercial development of Trans-Foreland's liquefied natural gas
terminal and its import capabilities. Subsequently, Trans-Foreland is
in the process of amending the Project to address the forecasted
natural gas needs of southcentral Alaska as detailed in Docket No.
PF25-9-000.
This notice establishes a 15-calendar day intervention and comment
period deadline. Any person wishing to comment on Trans-Foreland'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
[[Page 52378]]
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.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\2\ Contested proceedings are those where an intervenor disputes
any material issue of the filing. 18 CFR 385.2201(c)(1).

\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.
