dam to provide instream flow releases to 

the bypassed reach; (7) a 5,688-foot-long 

steel penstock varying in diameter from 

24 to 16 inches and consisting of buried 

sections or above-ground sections 

supported on timber crib trestles; (8) a 

powerhouse containing one impulse 

turbine-generator unit with an installed 

capacity of 1,100 kilowatts; (9) a 40-footlong concrete-lined tailrace which 

conveys powerhouse flows to a 1,000- 

foot-long unlined and braided tailrace 

channel discharging into the West Fork 

Wallowa River (West Fork); (10) a 20- 

foot-long, 7.2-kilovolt transmission line 

which connects to the Wallowa Falls 

substation; and (11) appurtenant 

facilities. 

The project currently generates an 

average of 7 million kilowatt-hours 

annually. The dams and existing project 

facilities are owned by PacifiCorp. The 

project is operated run-of-river. Up to 1 

cubic feet per second (cfs) of flow is 

diverted from Royal Purple Creek and 

discharged into the impoundment. Up 

to 16 cfs of water (i.e., 15 cfs maximum 

from East Fork and 1 cfs from Royal 

Purple Creek) is diverted through the 

intake structure at the East Fork dam 

into the steel penstock and conveyed to 

the powerhouse where it flows through 

the single impulse turbine and 

discharges through the tailrace into the 

West Fork. The project’s current license 

requires a minimum instream flow 

release of 0.5 cfs or inflow, whichever 

is less, in the bypassed reach. The 

current license also mandates that 

PacifiCorp restrict sediment flushing 

from the impoundment to the period 

from May 1 to August 30 to protect 

kokanee salmon. 

PacifiCorp proposes to modify the 

existing facilities by: (1) Extending the 

existing 8-inch Royal Purple Creek 

diversion pipe approximately 20 feet to 

discharge directly into the East Fork 

upstream of the project impoundment to 

reduce erosion, (2) realigning the 

existing tailrace channel and 

constructing a permanent fish passage 

barrier and concrete outfall at its 

confluence with the West Fork to 

prevent fish from entering the tailrace 

channel, (3) improving existing and 

constructing new recreational facilities 

to enhance recreation in the project 

area, and (4) installing and operating 

flow monitoring equipment at the 

historic U.S. Geological Survey gage in 

the East Fork bypassed reach to monitor 

compliance with minimum flows. 

PacifiCorp also proposes to: Increase the 

minimum flow release in the bypassed 

reach to 4 cfs from November through 

April and 5 cfs from May through 

October, and modify the sediment 

management program to only enable 

sediment flushing during the high-flow 

month of June. 

PacifiCorp proposes to modify the 

project boundary by adding about 8.4 

acres to encompass a total of 26.4 acres 

of land necessary for project purposes 

and for operation and maintenance.

DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY 

[FE Docket No. 14–173–LNG] 

Downeast LNG, Inc.; Application for 

Long-Term Authorization To Export 

Liquefied Natural Gas Produced From 

Domestic Natural Gas Resources to 

Non-Free Trade Agreement Countries 

for a 20-Year Period 

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 October 15, 2014, 

by Downeast LNG, Inc. (DELNG), 

requesting long-term, multi-contract 

authorization to export domestically 

produced natural gas in a volume 

equivalent to approximately 168 billion 

cubic feet (Bcf) per year, or 

approximately 0.46 Bcf per day. DELNG 

seeks authorization to export the natural 

gas as liquefied natural gas (LNG) by 

vessel from its proposed LNG terminal 

to be located in Robbinston, Maine, 

referred to as the Downeast LNG ImportExport Project. 

DELNG requests authorization to 

export LNG to any country with which 

the United States does not have a free 

trade agreement (FTA) requiring 

national treatment for trade in natural 

gas and with which trade is not 

prohibited by U.S. law or policy (nonFTA countries). DELNG requests this 

non-FTA export authorization for a 20- 

year term to commence on the earlier of 

the date of first export or eight years 

from the date the authorization is

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

DOE/FE Evaluation 

The Application will be reviewed 

pursuant to section 3(a) of the NGA, 15 

U.S.C. 717b(a), and DOE will consider 

any issues required by law or policy. To 

the extent determined to be relevant, 

these issues will include the domestic 

need for the natural gas proposed to be 

exported, the adequacy of domestic 

natural gas supply, U.S. energy security, 

and the cumulative impact of the 

requested authorization and any other 

LNG export application(s) previously 

approved on domestic natural gas 

supply and demand fundamentals. DOE 

may also consider other factors bearing 

on the public interest, including the 

impact of the proposed exports on the 

U.S. economy (including GDP, 

consumers, and industry), job creation, 

the U.S. balance of trade, and 

international considerations; and 

whether the authorization is consistent 

with DOE’s policy of promoting 

competition in the marketplace by 

allowing commercial parties to freely 

negotiate their own trade arrangements. 

Additionally, DOE will consider the 

following environmental documents: 

• Addendum to Environmental Review 

Documents Concerning Exports of 

Natural Gas From the United States, 

79 FR 48132 (Aug. 15, 2014); 1 and 

• Life Cycle Greenhouse Gas 

Perspective on Exporting Liquefied 

Natural Gas From the United States, 79 

FR 32260 (June 4, 2014).2

Parties that may oppose this 

Application should address these issues 

in their comments and/or protests, as 

well as other issues deemed relevant to 

the Application. 

The National Environmental Policy 

Act (NEPA), 42 U.S.C. 4321 et seq., 

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 

environmental responsibilities.
