    Take notice that on April 11, 2014, Pivotal LNG, Inc. (Pivotal 
LNG), pursuant to section 207(a)(2) of the Federal Energy Regulatory 
Commission's (Commission) Rules of Practice and Procedure, 18 CFR 
385.207 (2013), filed a Petition for Declaratory Order seeking a 
declaratory ruling from the Commission that certain existing liquefied 
natural gas (``LNG'') production facilities (``LNG production 
Facilities''), not otherwise subject to the Commission's jurisdiction 
under Section 3 of the Natural Gas Act (``NGA''), 15 U.S.C. 717b 
(2012), would not be deemed ``LNG terminal[s],'' as that term is 
defined in Section 2(11) of the NGA, id. 717a(11), by virtue of 
producing LNG that subsequently may be transported in interstate 
commerce by waterborne vessel. Also, the Petition seeks a finding that 
certain proposed LNG transactions wherein Pivotal LNG sells LNG that 
is: (i) Sourced from one of the LNG Production Facilities or from a 
non-affiliated LNG supplier; (ii) transported by Pivotal LNG, an 
affiliate, or a third party in intrastate or interstate commerce within 
the contiguous United States by means including (but not limited to) 
truck, rail, or waterborne vessel, but excluding interstate pipeline; 
and (iii) subsequently transported by a third party in interstate 
commerce, by waterborne vessel, for resale and ultimate consumption in 
a non-contiguous U.S. state or territory as vehicular fuel, other end-
use fuel, or feedstock do not constitute jurisdictional sales or 
transportation of natural gas in interstate commerce subject to the 
Commission's jurisdiction under NGA Sections l(b) and 7, id. 717(b), 
717f.
