DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY 

Federal Energy Regulatory 

Commission 

[Docket No. PF15–7–000] 

Eagle LNG Partners Jacksonville LLC; 

Supplemental Notice of Intent To 

Prepare an Environmental Impact 

Statement for the Planned Jacksonville 

Project and Request for Comments on 

Environmental Issues 

On February 24, 2015, the 

Commission issued a ‘‘Notice of Intent 

to Prepare an Environmental Impact 

Statement for the Planned Jacksonville 

Project, Request for Comments on 

Environmental Issues, and Notice of 

Public Scoping Meeting’’ (NOI). It has 

come to our attention that the 

environmental mailing list was not 

provided copies of the NOI; therefore, 

we are issuing this Supplemental NOI to 

extend the scoping period and provide 

additional time for interested parties to 

file comments on environmental issues. 

The staff of the Federal Energy 

Regulatory Commission (FERC or 

Commission) will prepare an 

environmental impact statement (EIS) 

that will discuss the environmental 

impacts of the Jacksonville Project 

(Project) involving construction and 

operation of facilities by Eagle LNG 

Partners Jacksonville LLC (Eagle LNG) 

in Duval County, Florida. The 

Commission will use this EIS in its 

decision-making process to determine 

whether the project is in the public 

convenience and necessity. 

The Commission and its cooperating 

agencies continue to gather input from 

the public and interested agencies on 

the project. This process is referred to as 

scoping. Your input will help the 

Commission staff determine what issues 

they need to evaluate in the EIS. The 

initial NOI identified March 26, 2015 as 

the close of the scoping period. Please 

note that the scoping period is now 

extended and will close on April 24, 

2015. 

This notice is being sent to the 

Commission’s current environmental 

mailing list for this Project. State and 

local government representatives should 

notify their constituents of this planned 

Project and encourage them to comment 

on their areas of concern. 

A fact sheet prepared by the FERC 

entitled ‘‘An Interstate Natural Gas 

Facility On My Land? What Do I Need 

To Know?’’ is available for viewing on 

the FERC Web site (www.ferc.gov). This 

fact sheet addresses a number of 

typically asked questions, including the 

use of eminent domain and how to 

participate in the Commission’s 

proceedings. 

Summary of the Planned Project 

Eagle LNG proposes to construct, own 

and operate the Jacksonville LNG 

facility located within the City of 

Jacksonville, Florida, on industrially 

zoned land adjacent to the St. Johns 

River. 

The facility would receive 

domestically produced natural gas, 

transported through existing and 

expanded local utility pipelines, and 

utilize super-cooling to create liquefied 

natural gas (LNG) for temporary onsite 

storage. The Project would include three 

liquefaction trains, one (possibly two) 

LNG storage tanks, and a marine loadout facility and dock on the St. Johns 

River that could accommodate small to 

mid-size LNG vessels and bunkering 

barges. LNG would be periodically 

loaded for transport onto trucks, 

containers, or ocean-going vessels, and 

marketed for use in U.S. vehicular and 

high-horsepower engines, domestic ship 

fueling (marine bunkering), and 

international export. 

As currently planned, the Jacksonville 

Project would consist of the following 

facilities: 

• Three liquefaction trains, each with 

a capacity of 0.18 million tons per 

annum; 

• inlet natural gas boost compression; 

• interconnect piping (including 

potential non-jurisdictional expansion 

of existing public utility lines); 

• one 30,283 cubic meter single 

containment LNG storage tank; 

• an LNG vessel docking and loading 

terminal; 

• an LNG truck loading area; 

• flare stack; and 

• power, water, and communications 

facilities (including off-site nonjurisdictional facilities leading to the 

Project site). 

The general location of the Project site 

is shown in Appendix 1.1

Land Requirements for Construction 

The planned Jacksonville Project 

would encompass a 193 acre site along 

the St. Johns River that is currently 

zoned for industrial development by the 

City of Jacksonville, and located in an 

area that hosts other bulk fuel terminals. 

The Project site includes a submerged 

land lease covering lands extending 

approximately 600 feet from the 

shoreline into the St. Johns River. Based 

on the Project’s initial design, the 

facility construction footprint would 

occupy approximately 40 of the 193 

acres; laydown area requirements 

during construction are included within 

the 40 acres. Eagle LNG is still in the 

planning phase for the Jacksonville 

Project and the required property title 

assignments have not been finalized. 

The EIS Process 

The National Environmental Policy 

Act (NEPA) requires the Commission to 

take into account the environmental 

impacts that could result from an action 

whenever it considers the authorization 

of LNG facilities under section 3(a) of 

the Natural Gas Act. NEPA also requires 

us 2 to discover and address concerns 

the public may have about proposals. 

This process is referred to as scoping. 

The main goal of the scoping process is 

to focus the analysis in the EIS on the 

important environmental issues. By this 

notice, the Commission requests public 

comments on the scope of the issues to 

address in the EIS. We will consider all 

filed comments during the preparation 

of the EIS. 

In the EIS, we will discuss impacts 

that could occur as a result of the 

construction and operation of the 

planned Project under these general 

headings: 

• Geology and soils; 

• land use; 

• water resources and wetlands; 

• cultural resources; 

• vegetation, fisheries, and wildlife;

3The Council on Environmental Quality 

regulations addressing cooperating agency 

responsibilities are at Title 40, Code of Federal 

Regulations, Part 1501.6. 

4The Advisory Council on Historic Preservation 

regulations are at Title 36, Code of Federal 

Regulations, Part 800. Those regulations define 

historic properties as any prehistoric or historic 

district, site, building, structure, or object included 

in or eligible for inclusion in the National Register 

for Historic Places. 

• socioeconomics; 

• air quality and noise; 

• endangered and threatened species; 

• public safety and reliability; and 

• cumulative impacts. 

We will also evaluate possible 

alternatives to the planned Project or 

portions of the Project, and make 

recommendations on how to lessen or 

avoid impacts on the various resource 

areas. 

Although no formal application has 

been filed, we have already initiated our 

NEPA review under the Commission’s 

pre-filing process. The purpose of the 

pre-filing process is to encourage early 

involvement of interested stakeholders 

and to identify and resolve issues before 

the FERC receives an application. As 

part of our pre-filing review, we have 

begun to contact some federal and state 

agencies to discuss their involvement in 

the scoping process and the preparation 

of the EIS. In addition, representatives 

from the FERC participated in the 

public open house sponsored by Eagle 

LNG in Jacksonville, Florida in January 

2015 to explain the environmental 

review process and answer questions to 

interested stakeholders. 

The EIS will present our independent 

analysis of the issues. We will publish 

and distribute the draft EIS for public 

comment. After the comment period, we 

will consider all timely comments and 

revise the document, as necessary, 

before issuing a final EIS. To ensure we 

have the opportunity to consider and 

address your comments, please carefully 

follow the instructions in the Public 

Participation section beginning on page 

5 of this notice. 

With this notice, we are asking 

agencies with jurisdiction by law and/ 

or special expertise with respect to the 

environmental issues related to this 

Project to formally cooperate with us in 

the preparation of the EIS.3 Agencies 

that would like to request cooperating 

agency status should follow the 

instructions for filing comments 

provided under the Public Participation 

section of this notice. Currently, the 

U.S. Coast Guard, the U.S. Army Corps 

of Engineers, and the Florida 

Department of Environmental Protection 

have expressed their intention to 

participate as cooperating agencies in 

the preparation of the EIS. 

Consultations Under Section 106 of the 

National Historic Preservation Act 

In accordance with the Advisory 

Council on Historic Preservation’s 

implementing regulations for section 

106 of the National Historic 

Preservation Act, we are using this 

notice to initiate consultation with the 

Florida State Division of Historical 

Resources (State Historic Preservation 

Office (SHPO)), and to solicit its views 

and those of other government agencies, 

interested Indian tribes, and the public 

on the Project’s potential effects on 

historic properties.4 We will define the 

project-specific Area of Potential Effects 

(APE) in consultation with the SHPO as 

the Project develops. On natural gas 

facility projects, the APE at a minimum 

encompasses all areas subject to ground 

disturbance (examples include 

construction area, contractor storage 

yards, and access roads). Our EIS for 

this Project will document our findings 

on the impacts on historic properties 

and summarize the status of 

consultations under section 106. 

Currently Identified Environmental 

Issues 

We have already identified several 

issues that we think deserve attention 

based on a preliminary review of the 

planned facilities and the 

environmental information provided by 

Eagle LNG. This preliminary list of 

issues may change based on your 

comments and our continued analysis. 

Issued identified include: 

• Potential impacts on recreational 

fishing and aquatic resources in the 

vicinity of Bartram Island and along the 

St Johns River Shipping Channel; 

• potential water quality impact from 

dredging and disposal; 

• visual effects on surrounding areas; 

• public safety and hazards 

associated with the transport of natural 

gas and LNG; and 

• potential impacts and potential 

benefits of construction workforce on 

local housing, infrastructure, public 

services, and economy.

Becoming an Intervenor 

Once Eagle LNG files its application 

with the Commission, you may want to 

become an ‘‘intervenor’’ which is an 

official party to the Commission’s 

proceeding. Intervenors play a more 

formal role in the process and are able 

to file briefs, appear at hearings, and be 

heard by the courts if they choose to 

appeal the Commission’s final ruling. 

An intervenor formally participates in 

the proceeding by filing a request to 

intervene. Instructions for becoming an 

intervenor are in the ‘‘Document-less 

Intervention Guide’’ under the ‘‘e-filing’’ 

link on the Commission’s Web site. 

Motions to intervene are more fully 

described at http://www.ferc.gov/help/

how-to/intervene.asp. Please note that 

the Commission will not accept requests 

for intervenor status at this time. You 

must wait until the Commission 

receives a formal application for the 

Project.
