[Docket Nos. CP17-178-000]

Notice of Anticipated Schedule of Final Order for the Alaska 
Gasline Development Corporation Alaska LNG Project

    On April 17, 2017, Alaska Gasline Development Corporation filed an 
application in Docket No. CP17-178-000, pursuant to section 3 of the 
Natural Gas Act and Part 153 of the Commission's regulations, for 
authorization to site, construct, and operate a new liquefied natural 
gas (LNG) export terminal and associated facilities on the eastern 
shore of Cook Inlet in the Nikiski area of the Kenai Peninsula in 
Alaska, and to construct approximately 871 miles of natural gas 
pipeline and associated facilities, all within the State of Alaska. The 
proposed project, known as the Alaska LNG (Project), would liquefy and 
export up to 20.0 million metric tons per annum of LNG.
    In accordance with Title 41 of the Fixing America's Surface 
Transportation Act, enacted on December 4, 2015, agencies are to 
publish completion dates for all federal environmental reviews and 
authorizations. This notice identifies the Commission's anticipated 
schedule for issuance of the final order for the Project, which is 
based on the anticipated date of issuance of the final Environmental 
Impact Statement. Accordingly, we currently anticipate issuing a final 
order in the Project no later than:

Issuance of Final Order--February 6, 2020

    If a schedule change becomes necessary for the final order, an 
additional notice will be provided so that interested parties and 
government agencies are kept informed of the Project's progress.

    Dated: August 31, 2018.

Deputy Secretary.
