DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY 

Federal Energy Regulatory 

Commission 

[Docket No. CP22–41–000] 

Cameron LNG, LLC; Notice of 

Schedule for the Preparation of an 

Environmental Assessment for the 

Cameron LNG Amended Expansion 

Project 

On January 18, 2022, Cameron LNG, 

LLC (Cameron LNG) filed an application 

in Docket No. CP22–41–000 requesting 

to amend its authorization under section 

3 of the Natural Gas Act for the Cameron 

Expansion Project issued on May 5, 

2016 (Docket No. CP15–560–000). The 

proposed project is known as the 

Cameron LNG Amended Expansion 

Project (Project Amendment), and 

would reduce the overall production 

capacity of Cameron LNG’s liquefaction 

terminal from 9.97 to 6.75 million tons 

of liquefied natural gas per annum. 

On January 28, 2022, the Federal 

Energy Regulatory Commission 

(Commission or FERC) issued its Notice 

of Application for the Project 

Amendment. 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 Amendment. 

This notice identifies Commission 

staff’s intention to prepare an 

environmental assessment (EA) for the 

Project Amendment and the planned 

schedule for the completion of the 

environmental review.1

Schedule for Environmental Review 

Issuance of EA—December 2, 2022 

90-day Federal Authorization Decision 

Deadline 2—March 2, 2023 

If a schedule change becomes 

necessary, additional notice will be 

provided so that the relevant agencies 

are kept informed of the Project 

Amendment’s progress. 

Project Description 

Cameron LNG proposes to no longer 

construct the authorized Train 5; modify 

the approved Train 4 and perform 

associated design enhancements; and 

perform an additional design 

enhancement to allow simultaneous 

loading of two liquefied natural gas 

vessels at a rate of 12,000 cubic meters/ 

hour at both the North and South Jetties. 

The Project Amendment facilities would 

be within the existing footprint 

authorized by the Commission for the 

Expansion Project (Docket No. CP15– 

560–000) in Cameron and Calcasieu 

Parishes, Louisiana. 

Background 

On March 31, 2022, the Commission 

issued a Notice of Scoping Period 

Requesting Comments on 

Environmental Issues for the Proposed 

Cameron LNG Amended Expansion 

Project and Notice of Public Scoping 

Session (Notice of Scoping). 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. In response to the 

Notice of Scoping, the Commission 

received comments from the U.S. Fish 

and Wildlife Service, stating they had 

no comments on the Project 

Amendment. All substantive comments 

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 

a free service called eSubscription. This
