Independence Pipeline Company, ANR Pipeline Company and National
Fuel Gas Supply Company; Notice of Additional Scoping Meeting and Site
Visit
June 26, 1998.
The staff of the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC or
Commission) will be conducting an additional scoping meeting for the
proposed Independence Pipeline Project in Wooster, Ohio (Wayne County)
on Wednesday, July 29, 1998. Note the meeting location and time below.
Location: Wooster High School, PAC Auditorium, 515 Oldman Road,
Wooster, Ohio 44691, (330) 345-4000.
Time: 3:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m.
This meeting is being held to (1) allow those individuals who
signed up but did not get an opportunity to speak on the record in
Canton, Ohio on April 21, 1998, a new opportunity to provide oral
comments, and (2) afford an opportunity for those individuals in Wayne
County who could not attend the April 21, 1998 meeting an opportunity
to present oral or written comments at this meeting. In order to
accommodate the maximum number of speakers, the scoping meeting will be
an ``Open House'' forum from 3:00 p.m. until 9:00 p.m. Those who signed
up at the April 21, 1998 meeting but did not get an opportunity to
speak will be given priority to speak as they arrive during the six
hour meeting. Comments will be received from 3:00 p.m. through 5:00
p.m. and 6:00 p.m. through 8:00 p.m., with question and answer periods
between 5:00 p.m. and 6:00 p.m.; and 8:00 p.m. through 9:00 p.m. As in
past meetings, and to encourage more participation, commentors will be
limited to five minutes each. Transcripts of the meeting will be placed
in the environmental record for the above-referenced project.
The staff is particularly interested in learning about issues not
already addressed at the April 21, 1998 meeting and request that
comments be limited to new issues not previously presented. To allow
more time to hear new comments, those individuals who presented oral
comments on April 21, 1998 are requested not to speak again at the
Wooster meeting. If anyone who spoke at the Canton, Ohio scoping
meeting wishes to supplement their previous comments, you are invited
to do so in writing by filing the supplemental comments with the
Secretary of the Commission.
Provide two copies of your letter to: David Boergers, Acting
Secretary, Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street,
N.E., Room 1A, Washington, DC 20426.
Please label one copy for the attention of the Environmental Review
and Compliance Branch, PR-11.1.
In addition, Commission staff will be conducting a limited site
visit and/or a helicopter flyover of the project area. Anyone
interested in participating in the site visit may contact the
Commission's Office of External Affairs at (202) 208-1088. Participants
must provide their own transportation.
Additional information about the proposed project is available from
Paul McKee in the Commission's Office of External Affairs at (202) 208-
