SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Receipt of Application 

On March 31, 2022, MARAD and 

USCG received an application from the 

Applicant for all Federal authorizations 

required for a license to own, construct, 

and operate a deepwater port for the 

export of liquified natural gas (LNG) as 

authorized by the Act, and implemented 

under 33 Code of Federal Regulations 

(CFR) Parts 148, 149, and 150. After a 

coordinated completeness review by 

MARAD, USCG, and other cooperating 

Federal agencies, the application is 

deemed complete and contains 

information sufficient to initiate 

processing. 

Background 

The Act defines a deepwater port as 

any fixed or floating manmade structure 

other than a vessel, or any group of such 

structures, that are located beyond State 

seaward boundaries and used or 

intended for use as a port or terminal for 

the transportation, storage, and further 

handling of oil or natural gas for 

transportation to, or from, any State. A 

deepwater port includes all components 

and equipment, including pipelines, 

pumping or compressor stations, service 

platforms, buoys, mooring lines, and 

similar facilities that are proposed as 

part of a deepwater port to the extent 

they are located seaward of the highwater mark. 

The Secretary of Transportation 

delegated to the Maritime Administrator 

authorities related to licensing 

deepwater ports (49 CFR 1.93(h)). 

Statutory and regulatory requirements 

for processing applications and 

licensing appear in 33 U.S.C. 1501 et 

seq. and 33 CFR part 148. Under 

delegations from and agreements 

between the Secretary of Transportation 

and the Secretary of Homeland Security, 

applications are jointly processed by 

MARAD and USCG. Each application is 

considered on its merits. 

In accordance with 33 U.S.C. 1504(f) 

for all applications, MARAD and the 

USCG, working in cooperation with 

other involved Federal agencies and 

departments, shall comply with the 

requirements of the National 

Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) of 

1969 (42 U.S.C. 4321 et seq.). The U.S. 

Environmental Protection Agency 

(EPA), the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers 

(USACE), the National Oceanic and 

Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), 

the Bureau of Ocean Energy 

Management (BOEM), the Bureau of 

Safety and Environmental Enforcement 

(BSEE), and the Pipeline and Hazardous 

Materials Safety Administration 

(PHMSA), among others, participate in 

the processing of deepwater port 

applications and assist in the NEPA 

process as described in 40 CFR 1501.6. 

Each agency may participate in scoping 

and/or other public meeting(s) and may 

incorporate the MARAD/USCG 

environmental impact review for 

purposes of their jurisdictional 

permitting processes, to the extent 

applicable. Comments related to this 

deepwater port application addressed to 

the EPA, USACE, or other federal 

agencies should note the federal docket 

number, MARAD–2022–0076. Each 

comment will be incorporated into the 

Department of Transportation (DOT) 

docket and considered as the 

environmental impact analysis is 

developed to ensure consistency with 

the NEPA process. All connected 

actions, permits, approvals, and 

authorizations will be considered 

during the processing of the New 

Fortress Energy Louisiana FLNG 

deepwater port license application. 

MARAD, in issuing this Notice of 

Application pursuant to 33 U.S.C. 

1504(c), must designate as an ACS any 

coastal state which (A) would be 

directly connected by pipeline to a 

deepwater port as proposed in an 

application, or (B) would be located 

within 15 nautical miles of any such 

proposed deepwater port (see 33 U.S.C. 

1508(a)(1)). Pursuant to the criteria 

provided in the Act, Louisiana is the 

designated ACS for this application. 

Other states may request from the 

Maritime Administrator designation as 

an ACS in accordance with 33 U.S.C. 

1508(a)(2). 

The Act directs that at least one 

public hearing take place in each ACS, 

in this case, Louisiana. Additional 

public meetings may be conducted to 

solicit comments for the environmental 

analysis to include public scoping 

meetings, or meetings to discuss the 

Draft and Final Environmental Impact 

Statement documents prepared in 

accordance with NEPA. 

MARAD, in coordination with the 

USCG, will publish additional Federal 

Register notices with information 

regarding these public meeting(s) and 

hearing(s) and other procedural 

milestones, including the NEPA 

environmental impact review. The 

Maritime Administrator’s decision, and 

other key documents, will be filed in the 


khammond on DSKJM1Z7X2PROD with NOTICES
24390 Federal Register / Vol. 87, No. 79 / Monday, April 25, 2022 / Notices 

public docket for the application at 

docket number MARAD–2022–0076. 

The Act imposes a strict timeline for 

processing an application. When 

MARAD and USCG determine that an 

application is complete (i.e., contains 

information sufficient to commence 

processing), the Act directs that all 

public hearings on the application be 

concluded within 240 days from the 

date the Notice of Application is 

published. 

Within 45 days after the final hearing, 

the Governor of the ACS, in this case, 

the Governor of Louisiana, may notify 

MARAD of their approval, approval 

with conditions, or disapproval of the 

application. If such approval, approval 

with conditions, or disapproval is not 

provided to the Maritime Administrator 

by that time, approval shall be 

conclusively presumed. MARAD may 

not issue a license without the explicit 

or presumptive approval of the 

Governor of the ACS. During this 45-day 

period, the Governor may also notify 

MARAD of inconsistencies between the 

application and State programs relating 

to environmental protection, land and 

water use, and coastal zone 

management. In this case, MARAD may 

condition the license to make it 

consistent with such state programs (33 

U.S.C. 1508(b)(1)). MARAD will not 

consider written approvals or 

disapprovals of the application from the 

Governor of the ACS until 

commencement of the 45-day period 

after the final public hearing for the 

Final Environmental Impact Statement 

is completed. The Maritime 

Administrator must render a decision 

on the application within 90 days after 

the final hearing. 

Should a favorable record of decision 

be rendered and a license be issued, 

MARAD may include specific 

conditions related to design, 

construction, operations, environmental 

permitting, monitoring and mitigations, 

and financial responsibilities. If a 

license is issued, USCG, in coordination 

with other agencies as appropriate, 

would review and approve the 

deepwater port’s engineering, design, 

and construction; operations/security 

procedures; waterways management and 

regulated navigation areas; maritime 

safety and security requirements; risk 

assessment; and compliance with 

domestic and international laws and 

regulations for vessels that may call on 

the port. The deepwater port would be 

designed, constructed, and operated in 

accordance with applicable codes and 

standards. 

In addition, the installation of 

pipelines and other structures may 

require permits under Section 404 of the 

Clean Water Act and Section 10 of the 

Rivers and Harbors Act, which are 

administered by the USACE. 

Permits from the EPA may also be 

required pursuant to the provisions of 

the Clean Air Act, as amended, and the 

Clean Water Act, as amended. 

Summary of the Application 

The application proposes the 

ownership, construction, operation, and 

eventual decommissioning of the New 

Fortress Energy (‘‘NFE’’) Louisiana 

FLNG deepwater port (‘‘DWP’’) terminal 

approximately 16 nautical miles off the 

southeast coast of Grand Isle, Louisiana. 

The project is to source domestic 

natural gas from multiple supply hubs 

in the Southeast Louisiana local market, 

liquify, and export as liquefied natural 

gas (LNG) up to 2.8 million metric 

tonnes per annum (MTPA), from a 

deepwater port located in federal waters 

off Louisiana. 

The project will involve the 

installation of two nominal 1.4 MTPA 

liquefaction systems (FLNG1 and 

FLNG2) installed in the West Delta 

Outer Continental Shelf Lease Block 38 

(‘‘WD–38’’) in approximately 30 meters 

(98 feet) of water. Each system will 

contain three platforms consisting of 

natural gas processing, natural gas 

liquefaction, and utilities and 

accommodations. FLNG1 will 

incorporate self-elevating platforms (aka 

jack-up platforms or rigs), and FLNG2, 

which will be located adjacent to 

FLNG1, will utilize fixed platform 

structures. An additional self-elevating 

platform will house feed gas 

compressors. Other than temporary 

construction staging areas, there are no 

onshore facilities associated with the 

Project. Staging for construction, if 

needed, will utilize existing staging, 

laydown and warehouse space near Port 

Fourchon, Port Sulphur, or Venice. 

The feed gas supply to the project will 

be transported to the WD–38 site via the 

existing Kinetica Energy Express, LLC 

(‘‘Kinetica’’) offshore natural gas 

pipeline system and two newly 

constructed, 24-inch pipeline laterals 

connecting the Kinetica pipeline system 

to the Project. The Kinetica pipeline has 

been in continuous natural gas service 

since it was placed in service. The 

pipeline pressure is currently operating 

at 750 pounds per square inch (‘‘psi’’) 

with an onshore Maximum Allowable 

Operating Pressure (‘‘MAOP’’) of 1,000 

psi and an offshore MAOP of 1,250 psi. 

Both FLNG1 and FLNG2 will be 

connected to a single Floating LNG 

Storage Unit (‘‘FSU’’) via a flexible, 

partially submerged, 220-meter 

cryogenic hose transfer system. The FSU 

will be positioned approximately 107 

meters (350 feet) from the FLNGs. To 

export the LNG, the FSU will receive 

one (1) commercially traded LNG carrier 

(LNGC) at a time, which will have a 

nominal cargo capacity of 

approximately 125,000 m3 to 160,000 

m3. The LNGCs will berth along the 

starboard side of the FSU and receive 

the LNG cargo through a ship-to-ship 

transfer cargo transfer system. The 

LNGC will approach the DWP and 

depart from the DWP using an extension 

to the established safety fairway, which 

serves maritime traffic calling at the 

Louisiana Offshore Oil Port. 

Approximately 40 LNGCs will call on 

the Project per year.
