Impact) pursuant to the National 

Environmental Policy Act that assesses 

the significance of the environmental 

impact of the proposed change in 

operations; and (3) a revised operations 

manual that fully describes the 

proposed change in port operations. 

Only after all required application 

processes are completed, and after 

consideration of the nine factors 

specified in the Act (33 U.S.C. 1503(c)), 

may the Maritime Administrator 

approve (or disapprove) an application 

to export oil or natural gas through a 

deepwater port. In the event the 

Maritime Administrator approves the 

application to convert to export 

operations, the applicant’s existing 

license shall be surrendered and the 

Maritime Administrator will issue a 

new license with conditions appropriate 

to all intended activities, including, if 

applicable, authority to engage in 

bidirectional oil or natural gas import 

and export operations. In all other cases, 

the Maritime Administrator will issue a 

new license with conditions appropriate 

to the applied for activity. 

This proposed policy will take effect 

upon the date of the final Federal 

Register Notice of Policy and will 

remain in effect until such time that 

additional or other related regulations 

are promulgated. As previously stated, 

all statutory provisions of the Deepwater 

Port Act of 1974, as amended, shall 

apply to the final authorization and 

licensure of export oil and natural gas 

Deepwater Ports.
