2020-14420. North Baja Pipeline, LLC; Notice of Revised Schedule for Environmental Review of the North Baja Xpress Project

This notice identifies the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission staff's revised schedule for the completion of the environmental assessment (EA) for North Baja Pipeline, LLC's (North Baja) North Baja XPress Project. The first notice of schedule, issued on February 14, 2020, identified July 17, 2020 as the EA issuance date. However, the schedule has been extended in order to accommodate the U.S. Bureau of Land Management's (BLM) review of North Baja's Plan of Development for the project, which North Baja has not yet provided but states it will file with the BLM in early July. The BLM is a cooperating agency in the development of the EA. As a result, staff has revised the schedule for issuance of the EA.

Schedule for Environmental Review

Issuance of the EA—September 8, 2020

90-day Federal Authorization Decision Deadline—December 7, 2020

If a schedule change becomes necessary, an additional notice will be provided so that the relevant agencies are kept informed of the project's progress.
