and coastal stations throughout the 

world’s oceans, seas, and lakes for the 

purpose of civil earth marine 

observations. NDBC has prepared a 

Programmatic Environmental 

Assessment (PEA) to analyze the 

continued operational activities of its 

network of moored buoys and coastal 

stations. The NDBC PEA has been 

created in accordance with the National 

Environmental Policy Act of 1969. 

The expected outcome from a 

Programmatic Environmental 

Assessment is either (a) finding of no 

significant impact; (b) identification of 

the need for an environmental impact 

statement; or (c) the proposed action is 

covered by a categorical exclusion 

established by the parent agency. In the 

case of the NDBC PEA a finding of no 

significant impact was made.

Chapter 35). 

Agency: National Oceanic and 

Atmospheric Administration (NOAA). 

Title: Pacific Island Pelagic Longline 

Fisheries; Short-tailed AlbatrossFisheries Interaction Recovery 

Reporting. 

OMB Control Number: 0648–0456. 

Form Number(s): None.

a currently approved information 

collection). 

Number of Respondents: 1. 

Average Hours per Response: 1.

information collection. Federal 

regulations require the operator of a 

vessel with a Hawaii longline limited

an endangered short-tailed albatross is 

hooked or entangled during fishing 

operations. Following the retrieval of 

the albatross from the ocean the vessel 

operator must record the condition of 

the bird on a recovery data form. A 

veterinarian will use the information to 

provide advice to the captain for caring 

for the bird. If the albatross is dead, the 

captain must attach an identification tag 

to the carcass to assist the U.S. Fish and 

Wildlife Service (USFWS) biologists in 

subsequent studies. This collection of 

information is one of the terms and 

conditions contained in the Endangered 

Species Act Section 7 biological opinion 

issued by USFWS, and is intended to 

maximize the probability of the longterm survival of short-tailed albatrosses 

accidentally taken by longline gear.

DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY 

[FE Docket No. 18–69–LNG] 

BP Energy Company; Application for 

Blanket Authorization To Export 

Previously Imported Liquefied Natural 

Gas on a Short-Term Basis 

AGENCY: Office of Fossil Energy, DOE. 

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 June 15, 2018, by 

BP Energy Company (BPEC), requesting 

blanket authorization to export liquefied 

natural gas (LNG) previously imported 

into the United States from foreign 

sources in an amount up to the 

equivalent of 30 billion cubic feet (Bcf) 

of natural gas on a short-term or spot 

market basis. BPEC requests this 

authorization for a two-year period 

commencing on July 15, 2018, or as 

soon thereafter as the requested 

authorization is granted. BPEC seeks 

authorization to export the LNG from 

the Dominion Energy Cove Point LNG, 

LP Terminal (Cove Point Terminal) 

located in Calvert County, Maryland, to 

any country with the capacity to import 

LNG via ocean-going carrier and with 

which trade is not prohibited by U.S. 

law or policy. BPEC states that it is 

authorized in DOE/FE Order No. 4199 to 

import the equivalent of up to 1,200 Bcf 

of natural gas from various international 

sources by vessel for a two-year period 

beginning on August 22, 2018, and 

extending through August 21, 2020. 

BPEC further states that it does not seek 

authorization to export any domestically 

produced natural gas or LNG. BPEC is 

requesting this authorization on its own 

behalf and as agent for other parties who 

hold title to the LNG at the time of 

export. The Application was filed under 

section 3 of the Natural Gas Act (NGA). 

Additional details can be found in 

BPEC’s Application, posted on the DOE/ 

FE website at: https://www.energy.gov/ 

sites/prod/files/2018/07/f53/18-69-

DATES: Protests, motions to intervene or

DOE/FE Evaluation 

The Application will be reviewed 

pursuant to section 3 of the NGA, 15 

U.S.C. 717b. In reviewing this

parties to freely negotiate their own 

trade arrangements. Parties that may 

oppose this application should 

comment in their responses on these 

issues.
