**ACTION :**  Notice of application.

**SUMMARY :**  The Office of Fossil Energy (FE) of the Department of Energy (DOE) gives notice of receipt of an application (Application), filed on February 18, 2014, by Cameron LNG, LLC (Cameron), requesting to transfer indirect control of two export authorizations that it currently holds: an authorization to export liquefied natural gas (LNG) to any country with which the United States has a free trade agreement (FTA) that requires national treatment for trade in natural gas (FTA countries), and a conditional authorization to export LNG
to countries with which the United States does not have a FTA that requires
national treatment for trade in natural gas (non-FTA countries). Cameron seeks
authorization to transfer its authorizations pursuant to 10 CFR 590.405, which states, in its entirety, that ‘‘authorizations by the Assistant Secretary to import or export natural gas shall not be transferable or assignable, unless specifically authorized by the Assistant Secretary.’’

**DATES :**  Protests, motions to intervene or notices of intervention, as applicable, requests for additional procedures, and written comments are to be filed using procedures detailed in the Public
Comment Procedures section no later than 4:30 p.m., Eastern time, June 18,

**SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION :**  Background

Applicant. Cameron states that it is a Delaware limited liability company with its executive offices in Houston, Texas.
Cameron further states that it is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Sempra LNG Holdings, which is a wholly owned subsidiary of Sempra Energy, a publicly traded corporation. Cameron constructed and operates the Cameron LNG Terminal, and has an
interconnection with the Cameron Interstate Pipeline.

Procedural History. This Application concerns two export authorizations issued by DOE/FE to Cameron. First, on January 17, 2012, DOE/FE issued Order No. 3059, in which it authorized Cameron to export domestically produced LNG in a volume equivalent to approximately 620 billion cubic feet per year (Bcf/yr) of natural gas by vessel
from the Cameron LNG Terminal to FTA countries for a period of 20 years, beginning on the earlier of the date of first cargo export or seven years from
the date of authorization. 1

Second, on February 11, 2014, DOE/ FE issued Order No. 3391, in which it authorized Cameron to export domestically produced LNG in a volume equivalent to approximately 620 Bcf/yr of natural gas to non-FTA countries for a 20-year period, commencing on the earlier of the date of first cargo export or seven years from the date of the
authorization. 2 As these volumes authorized for export from the Cameron LNG Terminal are the same, they are not
additive. 3 Current Application

Pursuant to 10 CFR 590.405, Cameron seeks approval for the indirect transfer of control due to a change in its upstream ownership structure. Cameron states in its Application that Sempra
LNG’s interest in Cameron will transfer to Cameron LNG Holdings, which is a wholly owned subsidiary of Sempra LNG Holdings. Sempra LNG Holdings will issue additional membership holdings in Cameron LNG Holdings equal to a 49.8% interest in Cameron LNG Holdings.

Sempra LNG Holdings will convey a 16.6% interest to GDF Suez Cameron LNG Holding II Corporation, a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned, indirect subsidiary of GDF Suez. Sempra LNG Holdings will convey a 16.6% interest to Mitsui & Co. Cameron LNG Investment, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned, indirect subsidiary of Mitsui, Inc. Sempra LNG Holdings will convey a 16.6% interest to Japan LNG Investment, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company indirectly owned by the Nippon Yusen Kabushiki Shipping Company through NYK Cameron LNG Holdings, Inc., (a Delaware corporation) and to Mitsubishi through Diamond Gas America Corporation (also a Delaware corporation). Cameron states that it will continue to own the authorizations; only the upstream ownership structure will change.

Public Interest Considerations

Cameron states that the proposed
indirect transfer of control will not undermine the public interest, and that the export characteristics will be unchanged. Specifically, Cameron maintains that the proposed transfer of
indirect control will not affect the amount of gas authorized for export, the scope of the project, the commencement date of the project, the source of the gas supply, the price, or other terms of the transaction. Further, Cameron states that DOE/FE has granted applications to transfer or assign import authorizations
to customers of the authorization holder in other proceedings, which is the type of transfer that Cameron proposes.

Environmental Impact

Cameron states that no changes to the
Cameron LNG Terminal would be required for the requested change in control. Therefore, Cameron maintains that a grant of its Application would not constitute a federal action significantly affecting the human environment within the meaning of the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA), 42

U.S.C. 4321 et seq., nor would an

environmental impact statement or environmental assessment be required.

DOE/FE Evaluation

Cameron’s Application will be reviewed pursuant to section 3 of the NGA, as amended, and the authority contained in DOE Delegation Order No. 00–002.00N (July 11, 2013) and DOE Redelegation Order No. 00–002.04F (July 11, 2013). In reviewing this Application, DOE will consider the application, comments filed in response to this application, and as well as any
other issues determined to be appropriate including conformity with the regulations at 10 CFR 590.405 and
the Natural Gas Act at 15 U.S.C. 717b. Parties that may oppose this Application should comment in their responses on these issues.

NEPA requires DOE to give appropriate consideration to the environmental effects of its proposed
decisions. No final decision will be issued in this proceeding until DOE has met its NEPA responsibilities, to the extent any are deemed to exist.
