Notice of Schedule for Environmental 

Review of the Port Arthur Liquefaction 

Project, the Texas Connector Project, 

and the Louisiana Connector Project: 

Port Arthur LNG, LLC; PALNG 

Common Facilities Company, LLC; 

Port Arthur Pipeline, LLC 

On November 29, 2016, Port Arthur 

LNG, LLC and PALNG Common 

Facilities Company, LLC (collectively 

referred to as PALNG) filed an 

application in Docket No. CP17–20–000 

requesting authorization pursuant to 

Section 3(a) of the Natural Gas Act 

(NGA) to construct and operate 

liquefied natural gas (LNG) export 

facilities. On the same day, Port Arthur 

Pipeline, LLC (PAPL) filed an 

application in Docket No. CP17–21–000, 

requesting a Certificate of Public 

Convenience and Necessity pursuant to 

Section 7(c) of the NGA to construct, 

operate, and maintain certain natural 

gas pipeline facilities for its Texas 

Connector Project. On October 16, 2017, 

PAPL filed an application in Docket No. 

CP18–7–000, requesting a Certificate of 

Public Convenience and Necessity 

pursuant to Section 7(c) of the NGA to 

construct, operate, and maintain certain 

natural gas pipeline facilities for its 

Louisiana Connector Project. The 

combined projects, collectively referred 

to as the Port Arthur Liquefaction and 

Pipeline Projects (Projects), would 

provide gas and processing to produce 

up to 13.5 million tonnes per annum of 

LNG for export. On August 20, 2015, in 

Order No. 3698, the U.S. Department of 

Energy, Office of Fossil Energy, granted 

to Port Arthur LNG, LLC a long-term, 

multi-contract authorization to export 

LNG to Free Trade Agreement nations. 

On December 13, 2016, and October 

30, 2017, the Federal Energy Regulatory 

Commission (FERC or Commission) 

issued its Notices of Application for the 

Projects. Among other things, these 

notices alerted other agencies issuing 

federal authorizations of the 

requirement to complete all necessary 

reviews and to reach a final decision on 

the request for a federal authorization 

within 90 days of the date of issuance 

of the Commission staff’s final 

Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) 

for the Projects. This instant notice 

identifies the FERC staff’s planned 

schedule for completion of the final EIS 

for the Projects, which is based on an 

issuance of the draft EIS in September 

2018. The forecasted schedule for both 

the draft and final EIS is based upon 

PALNG and PAPL providing complete 

and timely responses to any future data 

requests. In addition, the schedule 

assumes that the cooperating agencies 

will provide input on their areas of 

responsibility on a timely basis. 

Schedule for Environmental Review 

Issuance of Notice of Availability of the 

final EIS—January 31, 2019 

90-Day Federal Authorization Decision 

Deadline—May 1, 2019 

If a schedule change becomes 

necessary for the final EIS, an additional 

notice will be provided so that the 

relevant agencies are kept informed of 

the Projects’ progress. 

Project Description 

PALNG’s proposed facilities consist of 

an export liquefaction termination that 

includes two LNG liquefaction trains, 

three LNG storage tanks, a refrigerant 

storage area and truck unloading 

facilities, a condensate storage area and 

truck loading facilities, a construction 

dock, a marine offloading facility, a 

pioneer dock, and two marine berths 

capable of accommodating two LNG 

carriers of up to 266,000 cubic meters 

each. PALNG’s proposed facilities 

would occupy approximately 898 acres 

of a 2,900-acre site on the western shore 

of the Port Arthur Canal, about 5 miles 

south of Port Arthur, Texas and 6 miles 

north of Sabine, Texas. 

PAPL’s Texas Connector Project 

would consist of 26.6 miles of 42-inchdiameter pipeline entering the 

liquefaction facility from the north; 7.6 

miles of 42-inch-diameter pipeline 

entering the liquefaction facility from 

the south; 4.7 miles of lateral pipelines; 

two compressor stations providing a 

total of approximately 31,600 

horsepower of compression; six meter 

stations; eight pig launchers and 

receivers; and one mainline valve. 

These facilities would be located in in 

Jefferson and Orange Counties, Texas 

and Cameron Parish, Louisiana. 

PAPL’s Louisiana Connector Project 

would consist of 130.8 miles of 42-inchdiameter pipeline; 0.5 mile of lateral 

pipelines; one compressor station 

providing a total of approximately 

89,900 horsepower of compression; nine 

meter stations; nine mainline valves; 

and four pig launchers/receivers in 

Jefferson and Orange Counties, Texas 

and Cameron, Calcasieu, Beauregard, 

Allen, Evangeline, and St. Landry 

Parishes, Louisiana. 

Background 

On March 31, 2015, the Commission 

staff granted PALNG’s and PAPL’s 

requests to use the FERC’s Pre-filing 

environmental review process for the 

Liquefaction and Texas Connector 

Projects. On June 24, 2015, the 

Commission issued a Notice of Intent to 

Prepare an Environmental Impact 

Statement for the Planned Port Arthur 

Liquefaction Project and Port Arthur 

Pipeline Project, Request for Comments 

on Environmental Issues, and Notice of 

Public Scoping Meeting. On March 17, 

2017, the Commission staff granted 

PAPL’s request to use the FERC’s Prefiling environmental review process for 

the Louisiana Connector Project. On 

May 25, 2017, the Commission issued a 

Notice of Intent to Prepare an 

Environmental Impact Statement for the 

Planned Louisiana Connector Project, 

Request for Comments on 

Environmental Issues, and Notice of 

Public Scoping Sessions. 

The two referenced Notices of Intent 

were issued during the respective prefiling review of the Projects, and were 

sent to federal, state, and local 

government agencies; elected officials; 

affected landowners; environmental and 

public interest groups; Native American 

tribes and regional organizations; 

commentors and other interested

parties; and local libraries and 

newspapers. Major issues raised during 

scoping included wetland impacts and 

mitigation, and dredge material testing 

and beneficial reuse. 

The U.S. Coast Guard; U.S. 

Department of Energy; U.S. Department 

of Transportation, Pipeline and 

Hazardous Materials Safety 

Administration; U.S. Army Corps of 

Engineers, Galveston District; and U.S. 

Environmental Protection Agency are 

cooperating agencies in the preparation 

of the EIS.

has submitted the information 

collection request titled Understanding 

Decisions and Barriers about PrEP Use

10, 2017 to obtain comments from the 

public and affected agencies. CDC did 

not receive comments related to the 

previous notice. This notice serves to 

allow an additional 30 days for public

CDC will accept all comments for this 

proposed information collection project. 

The Office of Management and Budget 

is particularly interested in comments 

that: 

(a) Evaluate whether the proposed 

collection of information is necessary 

for the proper performance of the 

functions of the agency, including 

whether the information will have 

practical utility; 

(b) Evaluate the accuracy of the 

agencies estimate of the burden of the 

proposed collection of information, 

including the validity of the 

methodology and assumptions used; 

(c) Enhance the quality, utility, and 

clarity of the information to be 

collected;
