Preparation of FERC 7C Report and Wetland Survey

Construction of natural gas pipelines under FERC (Federal Energy Regulatory Commission) jurisdiction requires the preparation of environmental documents similar to an EA. For a sixteen mile pipeline construction project in Kansas and Missouri, Blackshare Environmental conducted a detailed wetland survey along the entire corridor and prepared a FERC 7C report for FERC review and approval. The 7C report consisted of thirteen separate resource reports which included reports on water quality, wildlife, cultural resources, socio-economics, air and noise quality, project alternatives and reliability and safety. The project was approved by FERC.
