Commission 

[Docket No. CP22–25–000] 

Venture Global Calcasieu Pass, LLC; 

Notice of Schedule for the Preparation 

of an Environmental Assessment for 

the Calcasieu Pass Uprate Amendment 

Project 

On December 3, 2021, Venture Global 

Calcasieu Pass, LLC (Calcasieu Pass) 

filed an application in Docket No. 

CP22–25–000 requesting an amendment 

to its Section 3 of the Natural Gas Act 

authorization granted by the 

Commission on February 21, 2019 in 

Docket No. CP15–550–000. The 

proposed project is known as the 

Calcasieu Pass Uprate Amendment 

Project (Project), and it would increase 

the Calcasieu Pass Export Terminal’s 

authorized peak liquefaction capacity 

achievable under optimal conditions 

from 12.0 million metric tons per 

annum to 12.4 million metric tons per 

annum of liquified natural gas (LNG)— 

or from approximately 620 billion cubic 

feet to 640.7 billion cubic feet per year 

(gas equivalence). 

On December 15, 2021, the Federal 

Energy Regulatory Commission 

(Commission or FERC) issued its Notice 

of Application for the Project. Among 

other things, that notice alerted agencies 

issuing federal authorizations of the 

requirement to complete all necessary 

reviews and to reach a final decision on 

a request for a federal authorization 

within 90 days of the date of issuance 

of the Commission staff’s environmental 

document for the Project. 

This notice identifies Commission 

staff’s intention to prepare an 

environmental assessment (EA) for the 

Project and the planned schedule for the 

completion of the environmental 

review.1

Schedule for Environmental Review 

Issuance of EA—June 24, 2022 

90-day Federal Authorization Decision 

Deadline 2—September 22, 2022 

This schedule is dependent upon the 

applicant providing complete responses 

to information requested by staff in the 

timeframe identified in staff’s 

environmental information requests. If a 

schedule change becomes necessary, 

additional notice will be provided so 

that the relevant agencies are kept 

informed of the Project’s progress. 

Project Description 

Calcasieu Pass proposes to increase 

the Export Terminal’s authorized peak 

liquefaction capacity achievable under 

optimal conditions from 12.0 million 

metric tons per annum to 12.4 million 

metric tons per annum of LNG. 

According to Calcasieu Pass, this 

proposed increase in the peak 

liquefaction capacity reflects 

refinements in the conditions and 

assumptions concerning the maximum 

potential operations. The requested 

increase does not involve the 

construction of any new facilities nor 

any modification of the previously 

authorized facilities. There would be no 

land disturbance required for this 

Project. 

Background 

On March 24, 2022, the Commission 

issued a Notice of Scoping Period 

Requesting Comments on 

Environmental Issues for the Proposed 

Calcasieu Pass Uprate Amendment 

Project. The Notice of Scoping was sent 

to affected landowners; federal, state, 

and local government agencies; elected 

officials; environmental and public 

interest groups; Native American tribes; 

other interested parties; and local 

libraries and newspapers. Comments 

were filed by the U.S. Environmental 

Protection Agency, RESTORE, and the 

Deep South Center for Environmental 

Justice regarding light and noise 

pollution, air emissions, safety, 

environmental justice, climate change, 

and economic impacts. All substantive 

comments received will be addressed in 

the EA. 

Additional Information

issuance of the EA and to keep track of 

formal issuances and submittals in 

specific dockets, the Commission offers
