Clearinghouse No. 2006081127; BLM
Reference No. CACA–42662]
The California State Lands
Commission, and the Bureau of Land
Management; North Baja Pipeline,
LLC; Notice of Availability/Completion
of the Final Environmental Impact
Statement/Report and Proposed Land
Use Plan Amendment for the Proposed
North Baja Pipeline Expansion Project
June 8, 2007.
The environmental staffs of the
Federal Energy Regulatory Commission
(FERC or Commission), the California
State Lands Commission (CSLC), and
the Bureau of Land Management (BLM)
(collectively referred to as the Agency
Staffs) have prepared the final
environmental impact statement/
environmental impact report and
proposed land use plan amendment
(final EIS/EIR/plan amendment) to
address North Baja Pipeline, LLC’s
(North Baja) proposed expansion of its
natural gas pipeline system.
The final EIS/EIR/plan amendment
was prepared as required by the
National Environmental Policy Act
(NEPA), the California Environmental
Quality Act, and the Federal Land
Policy and Management Act. The
purpose of the document is to inform
the public and the permitting agencies
about the potential adverse and
beneficial environmental impacts of the
proposed North Baja Pipeline Expansion
Project (Project or proposed Project) and
its alternatives, and recommend
mitigation measures that would reduce
the significant adverse impacts to the
maximum extent possible, and, where
feasible, to a less than significant level.
The Agency Staffs have concluded that
if the Project is constructed and
operated in accordance with applicable
laws and regulations, North Baja’s
proposed mitigation, and the Agency
Staffs’ additional mitigation measures, it
would be an environmentally acceptable
action.
The FERC is the lead Federal agency
and will use the document to consider
the environmental impacts that could
result if it issues North Baja a Certificate
of Public Convenience and Necessity
and a Presidential Permit amendment
under sections 7 and 3, respectively, of
the Natural Gas Act. The CSLC is the
lead State agency and will use the
document to consider North Baja’s
application to amend its existing right-
18JNN1
 Federal Register / Vol. 72, No. 116 / Monday, June 18, 2007 / Notices
of-way lease across the State’s Sovereign
and School Lands in conjunction with
the environmental impacts that could
result from any part of the Project in
California.
The BLM is participating as a
cooperating agency in the preparation of
the document because the Project would
cross Federal land under the
jurisdiction of the Palm Springs-South
Coast, El Centro, and Yuma Field
Offices. The Bureau of Reclamation
(BOR) is also a cooperating agency in
the preparation of the document
because lands administered by the BOR
would be crossed by the Project. Under
section 185(f) of the Mineral Leasing Act
of 1920, the BLM has the authority to
issue Right-of-Way Grants for all
affected Federal lands. The final EIS/
EIR/plan amendment will be used by
the BLM to consider whether to amend
North Baja’s existing Right-of-Way Grant
and issue Temporary Use Permits for
the installation of approximately 67.4
miles of pipeline and ancillary facilities
across Federal lands managed by the
BLM, the BOR, and the U.S. Fish and
Wildlife Service (FWS). The final EIS/
EIR/plan amendment will also be used
by the BLM to consider amending the
California Desert Conservation Area
Plan (as amended), which would be
necessary for pipeline construction
outside of designated utility corridors,
as well as amending the Yuma District
Resource Management Plan, which
would be necessary for pipeline
construction across the Milpitas Wash
Special Management Area.
The BLM proposes to adopt the final
EIS/EIR/plan amendment per Title 40
Code of Federal Regulations (CFR)
§ 1506.3 to meet its responsibilities
under NEPA and its planning
regulations per Title 43 CFR Part 1610.
The BLM will present separate Records
of Decision for the Right-of-Way Grant
and the plan amendments for the North
Baja Pipeline Expansion Project after the
issuance of the final EIS/EIR/plan
amendment. The concurrence or non-
concurrence of the BOR and the FWS
would be considered in the BLM’s
decision.
The existing North Baja system is
currently certificated by the FERC to
transport 512,500 dekatherms per day
(Dthd) (500 million standard cubic feet
per day [MMscfd]) of natural gas in a
southbound direction. Once completed,
the expanded system would be capable
of transporting up to 2,932,000 Dthd
(2,753 MMscfd) of natural gas from
jlentini on PROD1PC65 with NOTICES
planned liquefied natural gas (LNG)
storage and vaporization terminals
located on the Baja California coast in
Mexico in a northbound direction for
delivery to customers in California and
VerDate Aug<31>2005 18:19 Jun 15, 2007 Jkt 211001
Arizona. In addition to the new volumes
from the LNG terminals, North Baja
would continue to offer southbound gas
transportation service for several
existing shippers.
The final EIS/EIR/plan amendment
addresses the potential environmental
effects of the construction and operation
of the following facilities proposed by
North Baja:
• Up to 79.8 miles of pipeline loop 1
(B-Line) adjacent to North Baja’s
existing pipeline (A-Line) consisting of
11.7 miles of 42-inch-diameter pipeline
extending from the existing Ehrenberg
Compressor Station at milepost (MP) 0.0
in La Paz County, Arizona to the
existing Rannells Trap at MP 11.7 in
Riverside County, California, and 68.1
miles of 48-inch-diameter pipeline
extending from Rannells Trap to an
interconnection at the U.S.-Mexico
border at MP 79.8 in Imperial County,
California;
• 2.1 miles of 36-inch-diameter
pipeline lateral 2 (Arrowhead Extension)
extending from the proposed B-Line at
MP 7.4 to Southern California Gas
Company’s (SoCalGas) existing Blythe
Compressor Station in Riverside
County;
• 45.7 miles of 16-inch-diameter
pipeline lateral (Imperial Irrigation
District [IID] Lateral) extending from MP
74.5 of the B-Line near the existing
Ogilby Meter Station to the existing IID
El Centro Generating Station in Imperial
County;
• Modifications at the existing
Ehrenberg Compressor Station in LaPaz
County and the existing Ogilby Meter
Station in Imperial County to allow
northbound flow of natural gas;
• Metering modifications inside the
existing El Paso Natural Gas Company
(El Paso) Meter Station at the Ehrenberg
Compressor Station site to allow LNG-
source gas to be delivered into the El
Paso system;
• One meter station (Blythe-
Arrowhead Meter Station) at SoCalGas’
existing Blythe Compressor Station in
Riverside County to measure gas
delivery from the North Baja system to
SoCalGas;
• One meter station (El Centro Meter
Station) at the IID’s existing El Centro
Generating Station in Imperial County
to measure gas delivery from the North
Baja system to the IID;
• Two taps and crossover piping

Draft List of Initial Pesticide Active
Ingredients and Pesticide Inerts to be
Considered for Screening under the
Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act
AGENCY: Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Notice.
SUMMARY: Section 408(p) of the Federal
Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FFDCA)
directs EPA to develop a chemical
screening program using appropriate
validated test systems and other
scientifically relevant information to
determine whether certain substances
may have hormonal effects. In
September 2005, EPA published its
approach for selecting the initial list of
chemicals for which testing will be
required under the Endocrine Disruptor
Screening Program (EDSP). This
document presents the draft list of the
first group of chemicals that will be
screened in the Agency’s EDSP. The
draft list was produced using the
approach described in the September
2005 notice, and includes chemicals
that the Agency, in its discretion, has
decided should be tested first, based
upon exposure potential. This list
should not be construed as a list of
known or likely endocrine disruptors.
Nothing in the approach for generating
the initial list provides a basis to infer
that by simply being on this list these
chemicals are suspected to interfere
with the endocrine systems of humans
or other species, and it would be
inappropriate to do so. The first group
of chemicals identified for testing
includes pesticide active ingredients
and High Production Volume (HPV)
chemicals used as pesticide inerts. After
considering comments on this draft list
of chemicals, EPA will issue a second
Federal Register notice containing the
final list of chemicals. This document
does not describe other aspects of the
EDSP such as the administrative
procedures EPA will use to require
testing, the validated tests and battery
that will be included in the EDSP, or the
timeframe for requiring the testing or
receiving the data. These topics will be
PO 00000 Frm 00042 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 E:\FR\FM\18JNN1.SGM
