Mountain Valley Pipeline and Equitrans Expansion Project Final Supplemental Environmental Impact Statement Jefferson National Forest; Monroe County, West Virginia; Giles and Montgomery Counties, Virginia Lead Agency: USDA Forest Service Cooperating Agency USDI Bureau of Land Management Responsible Official: Jim Hubbard, Under Secretary U.S. Department of Agriculture Natural Resources and Environment Washington D.C. For Further Information Contact: Ken Arney, Regional Forester U.S. Forest Service, Southern Region (888) 603-0261 For BLM ROW Information Contact: Victoria Craft, Realty Specialist U.S. Bureau of Land Management (888) 603-0261 Abstract: The Mountain Valley Pipeline (MVP) and Equitrans Expansion Project (EEP) Final Supplemental Environmental Impact Statement (FSEIS) supplements the June 2017 Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) Final Environmental Impact Statement (FEIS). The USDA Forest Service (Forest Service), as the lead agency, and the Bureau of Land Management (BLM), as a Federal cooperating agency, have decisions to be made based on a review of the 2017 FEIS. The purpose for agency action is to respond to a proposal from Mountain Valley, LLC, relating to the MVP and EEP. The proposal seeks approval to construct and operate a buried 42-inch natural gas pipeline across approximately 3.5 miles of the Jefferson National Forest (JNF). To approve the proposal, a project-specific Forest Plan amendment is required. The Forest Service would provide construction and operation terms and conditions to protect resources and the public interest. Additionally, the proposal requires a right-of-way (ROW) grant, in this case, from the BLM to cross the JNF. The BLM would review the proposal and issue a decision consistent with the Mineral Leasing Act (MLA). A decision to issue a ROW grant/temporary use permit for a term of 30 years would include terms and conditions. The Forest Service is required to provide concurrence to the BLM prior to the BLM’s decision to issue the ROW grant and the permit (43 CFR § 2884.26). This FSEIS responds to the July 27, 2018 United States Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit decision that vacated and remanded the Forest Service’s decision approving the JNF’s plan amendment. The Court also vacated the BLM’s ROW decision and ROW grant/temporary use permit across National Forest System (NFS) lands. The supplemental analysis addresses the issues identified by the Court and any relevant new information and changed circumstances. The FSEIS evaluates the no action and the proposed action alternative. This decision will not be subject to either the 36 CFR Part 218 or 36 CFR Part 219 pre-decisional administrative review because the responsible official is the Under Secretary of Agriculture, Natural Resources and Environment (36 CFR § 218.13(b); 36 CFR § 219.13(b)). Per 40 CFR 1506.10(b)(2) (1978, as amended in 1986 and 2005), a 30-day waiting period will begin when the Notice of Availability is published in the Federal Register. After the 30-day period ends, the Forest Service and the BLM can sign their agency-specific records’ of decision. The Under Secretary for the U.S. Department of Agriculture, Natural Resources and Environment, has identified Alternative 2 – the Proposed Action as the preferred alternative. Final Supplemental Environmental Impact Statement Summary The Forest Service, and the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) as a cooperating agency, prepared this final supplemental environmental impact statement (FSEIS) in compliance with the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) and other relevant Federal and State laws and regulations1. According to Title 40 of the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) § 1502.9(c)(1)(ii) (1978, as amended in 1986 and 2005), a supplemental environmental impact statement (SEIS) shall be prepared if: (i) the agency makes substantial changes in the proposed action that are relevant to environmental concerns; or (ii) there are significant new circumstances or information relevant to concerns and bearing on the proposed action or its effects. This FSEIS supplements the June 2017 Federal Energy Regulatory Commission’s (FERC) Mountain Valley Project and Equitrans Expansion Project Final Environmental Impact Statement (FERC FEIS). Background The Mountain Valley Pipeline (MVP) is a proposed 303.5-mile interstate natural gas pipeline that would cross about 3.5 miles of the Jefferson National Forest (JNF), in Monroe County, West Virginia and Giles and Montgomery counties, Virginia. The Forest Service and BLM participated as cooperating agencies with the FERC in the preparation of the FERC FEIS. On June 29, 2017, the Notice of Availability for the FERC FEIS and the Forest Service Draft Record of Decision for the Mountain Valley Project Land and Resource Management Plan Amendment was published in the Federal Register. On December 1, 2017, the Forest Service adopted the FERC FEIS and a Record of Decision (ROD) was signed by the JNF Forest Supervisor (Forest Service 2017a). The ROD amended the January 2004 Jefferson National Forest Revised Land and Resource Management Plan (Forest Plan) to modify certain Forest Plan standards that precluded the use of standard pipeline construction methods for the MVP. The ROD included resource protection terms and conditions that would condition the Forest Service’s concurrence to the project, should BLM decide to grant a right-of-way (ROW). Project implementation on National Forest System (NFS) lands began in March 2018 and continued until July 27, 2018, when the United States Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit (Fourth Circuit or the Court) vacated and remanded the Forest Service’s decision approving the Forest Plan amendment based on violations of the National Forest Management Act (NFMA) and NEPA. The court vacated BLM’s Mineral Leasing Act (MLA) ROW decision for the portion through NFS lands based on violations of MLA. After implementation ceased, the Forest Service required Mountain Valley to conduct stabilization on NFS lands (Forest Service 2018, 2019a, 2019b, and 2019c). The Forest Service’s independent contractor is conducting daily monitoring on NFS lands. 1 On September 14, 2020, the Council on Environmental Quality’s (CEQ) revised NEPA regulations became effective (see 85 FR 43304). Those regulations apply to NEPA processes begun after September 14, 2020 (40 CFR § 1506.13). While agencies may apply CEQ’s revised regulations to ongoing activities and environmental documents begun before September 14, 2020, the Forest Service has elected to complete this NEPA process using the prior regulations, recognizing that where existing agency NEPA procedures are inconsistent with CEQ’s revised regulations, CEQ’s revised regulations govern unless there is a clear and fundamental conflict with the requirements of another statute. Jefferson National Forest i Final Supplemental Environmental Impact Statement On May 1, 2020, Mountain Valley Pipeline, LLC (Mountain Valley) submitted a revised MLA ROW application to the BLM seeking to construct and operate the natural gas pipeline across the JNF. Mountain Valley also requested that the Forest Service amend the Forest Plan consistent with the issues identified by the Court. On May 29, 2020, the BLM deemed Mountain Valley’s revised application complete. Purpose and Need The Forest Service’s purpose and need for action is to respond to a proposal from Mountain Valley to construct and operate a buried 42-inch interstate natural gas pipeline that would cross

    Dedication: 3/15/05 I dedicate this collection to my friends Orville and Evelyn Brynelson and my parents George and Marion Greenwald. I especially thank James Steckel, Barbara Zbikowski, Gustavo Betancourt, and Joshua Ellis, colleagues and computer experts extraordinaire, for their invaluable assistance. Kathy Hart, MUHS librarian, was most helpful in suggesting sources. I further thank Gaylan DuBose, Ed Long, Hugh Himwich, Susan Schearer, Gardy Warren, and Kaye Warren for their encouragement and advice. My former students and now Classics professors Daniel Curley and Anthony Hollingsworth also deserve mention for their advice, assistance, and friendship. My student Michael Kocorowski encouraged and provoked me into beginning this dictionary. Certamen players Michael Fleisch, James Ruel, Jeff Tudor, and Ryan Thom were inspirations. Sue Smith provided advice. James Radtke, James Beaudoin, Richard Hallberg, Sylvester Kreilein, and James Wilkinson assisted with words from modern foreign languages. Without the advice of these and many others this dictionary could not have been compiled. Lastly I thank all my colleagues and students at Marquette University High School who have made my teaching career a joy. Basic sources: American College Dictionary (ACD) American Heritage Dictionary of the English Language (AHD) Oxford Dictionary of English Etymology (ODEE) Oxford English Dictionary (OCD) Webster’s International Dictionary (eds. 2, 3) (W2, W3) Liddell and Scott (LS) Lewis and Short (LS) Oxford Latin Dictionary (OLD) Schaffer: Greek Derivative Dictionary, Latin Derivative Dictionary In addition many other sources were consulted; numerous etymology texts and readers were helpful. Zeno’s Word Frequency guide assisted in determining the relative importance of words. However, all judgments (and errors) are finally mine.
