167 FERC ¶ 61,054 (2019) (Order). 

2 Driftwood points to a legal challenge to its U.S. 

Army Corps of Engineers permit that created 

difficulties with respect to Driftwood’s ability to 

secure final commercial and financial commitments 

for the Project. However, the U.S. Court of Appeals 

for the Fifth Circuit recently issued a decision 

denying the petition for review filed by Healthy 

Gulf and the Sierra Club. Healthy Gulf v. U.S. Army 

Corps of Eng’rs, 2023 WL 5742541 (5th Cir. Sept. 

6, 2023).

intervenor disputes any material issue of the filing.

DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY 

Federal Energy Regulatory 

Commission 

[Docket Nos. CP17–117–001; CP17–118– 

001] 

Driftwood LNG LLC, Driftwood Pipeline 

LLC; Notice of Request for Extension 

of Time 

Take notice that on October 4, 2023, 

Driftwood LNG LLC (Driftwood LNG) 

and Driftwood Pipeline LLC (Driftwood 

Pipeline) (collectively, Driftwood) 

requested that the Federal Energy 

Regulatory Commission (Commission) 

grant an extension of time (2023 

Extension of Time Request) of an 

additional 36 months to construct and 

operate facilities for liquefaction and 

export of natural gas in Calcasieu 

Parish, Louisiana (LNG Terminal and 

Pipeline Project, respectively) 

authorized by the Commission in 

Docket Nos. CP17–117–000 and CP17– 

118–000.1 On April 18, 2019, the 

Commission issued an Order Granting 

Authorization Under Sections 3 and 7 of 

the Natural Gas Act, which stipulated 

Driftwood fully construct and make 

available facilities for service within 

seven years of the date of the Order. 

In its 2023 Extension of Time Request, 

Driftwood states, despite significant 

progress with construction of the 

Project, it has encountered unforeseen 

circumstances in recent years that are 

preventing it from meeting the 

Commission’s in-service deadline for 

the liquefied natural gas (LNG) Terminal 

and associated Pipeline Project. 

Driftwood cites the global upheaval 

stemming from the COVID–19 pandemic 

caused cascading market and logistical 

impacts on workforce, safety, supply 

chain, and investment in infrastructure 

projects; 2 these circumstances caused 

unforeseeable difficulties for LNG 

project development and made securing 

long-term LNG commercial 

commitments difficult over the last 

several years. Driftwood requests that 

the Commission grant a 36-month 

extension of time so that it has the 

required time to: (i) receive its long lead 

manufactured equipment, which cannot 

be manufactured and delivered to the 

site in time to meet the current 

deadline; (ii) install the equipment and 

construct the remaining facilities; and 

(iii) continue to attract and secure 

customers and financing. 

This notice establishes a 15-calendar 

day intervention and comment period 

deadline. Any person wishing to 

comment on Driftwood’s request for an 

extension of time may do so. No reply 

comments or answers will be 

considered. If you wish to obtain legal 

status by becoming a party to the 

proceedings for this request, you 

should, on or before the comment date 

stated below, file a motion to intervene 

in accordance with the requirements of 

the Commission’s Rules of Practice and 

Procedure (18 CFR 385.214 or 385.211) 

and the Regulations under the Natural 

Gas Act (NGA) (18 CFR 157.10). 

As a matter of practice, the 

Commission itself generally acts on 

requests for extensions of time to 

complete construction for NGA facilities 

when such requests are contested before 

order issuance. For those extension 

requests that are contested,3 the 

Commission will aim to issue an order 

acting on the request within 45 days.4

The Commission will address all 

arguments relating to whether the 

applicant has demonstrated there is 

good cause to grant the extension.5 The 

Commission will not consider 

arguments that re-litigate the issuance of 

the certificate order, including whether 

the Commission properly found the 

project to be in the public convenience 

and necessity and whether the 

Commission’s environmental analysis 

for the certificate complied with the 

National Environmental Policy Act.6 At 

the time a pipeline requests an 

extension of time, orders on certificates 

of public convenience and necessity are 

final and the Commission will not relitigate their issuance.7 The OEP 

Director, or his or her designee, will act 

on all of those extension requests that 

are uncontested.
