Discussion

    Under 33 CFR 127.007, an owner or operator planning new 
construction to expand or modify marine terminal operations in an 
existing facility handling LNG or Liquefied Hazardous Gas (LHG), where 
the construction, expansion, or modification would result in an 
increase in the size and/or frequency of LNG or LHG marine traffic on 
the waterway associated with a proposed facility or modification to an 
existing facility, must submit an LOI to the Captain of the Port (COTP) 
of the zone in which the facility is or will be located. Under 33 CFR 
127.009, after receiving an LOI, the COTP issues a Letter of 
Recommendation (LOR) as to the suitability of the waterway for LNG or 
LHG marine traffic to the appropriate jurisdictional authorities. The 
LOR is based on a series of factors outlined in 33 CFR 127.009 that 
relate to the physical nature of the affected waterway and issues of 
safety and security associated with LNG or LHG marine traffic on the 
affected waterway.
    The purpose of this notice is to solicit public comments on the 
proposed construction and expansion project related to a FERC approved 
LNG facility as submitted by Rodino, Inc. on behalf of Annova LNG 
Common Infrastructure, LLC (Annova LNG) and Texas LNG Brownsville LLC 
(Texas LNG) and as submitted by AcuTech Group, Inc. on behalf of Rio 
Grande LNG, LLC. Input from the public may be useful to the COTP with 
respect to developing the LOR. The Coast Guard requests comments to 
help assess the suitability of the associated waterway for increased 
LNG marine traffic as it relates to navigation, safety, and security.
    On January 24, 2011, the Coast Guard published Navigation and 
Vessel Inspection Circular (NVIC) 01-2011, ``Guidance Related to 
Waterfront Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) Facilities.'' NVIC 01-2011 
provides guidance for owners and operators seeking approval to 
construct and operate LNG facilities. The Coast Guard will refer to 
NVIC 01-2011 for process information and guidance in evaluating the 
project included in the LOIs and WSAs submitted by Rodino, Inc. and
