Proposed Action On June 25, 2004, the Coast Guard and MARAD published a notice of intent to prepare an environmental impact statement (EIS) for the proposed Compass Port deepwater port in the Federal Register (69 FR 35657). The proposed action requiring environmental review is the Federal licensing of the proposed deepwater port described in ‘‘Summary of the Application’’ below, which is reprinted from previous Federal Register notices in this docket. Alternatives to the Proposed Action The alternatives to licensing are: (1) Licensing with conditions (including conditions designed to mitigate environmental impact), and (2) denying the application, which for purposes of environmental review is the ‘‘no-action’’ alternative. These alternatives are more fully discussed in the DEIS. Summary of the Application The application plan calls for the proposed deepwater port to be located in the Outer Continental Shelf (OCS) and Mississippi Sound areas of the Gulf of Mexico, approximately 11 miles off Dauphin Island, AL, in lease block Mobile 910. Compass Port would serve as a liquefied natural gas (LNG) receiving, storage, and regasification facility, located in approximately 70 feet of water depth. It will incorporate docking facilities, unloading facilities, two LNG storage tanks, regasification facilities, an offshore pipeline, and support facilities. Compass Port proposes the installation of approximately 26.8 miles of 36-inch diameter natural gas transmission pipeline on the OCS. In addition, approximately 4.9 miles of 36inch diameter pipeline would be installed onshore to connect the proposed deepwater port and offshore pipeline with existing gas distribution pipelines near Coden, AL. The deepwater port facility would consist of two concrete gravity-based structures (GBS) that would contain the LNG storage tanks, LNG carrier berthing provisions, LNG unloading arms, low and high pressure pumps, vaporizers, metering, utility systems, general facilities and accommodations. The terminal would be able to receive LNG carriers up to 255,000 cubic meters cargo capacity. Liquefied natural gas carrier arrival frequency would be planned to match specified terminal gas delivery rates. Liquefied natural gas VerDate jul<14>2003 17:18 Feb 10, 2005 Jkt 205001 would be stored in two integral fullcontainment tanks, each with a capacity of 150,000 cubic meters, and a combined capacity of 300,000 cubic meters of LNG. The regasification process would consist of lifting the LNG from the storage tanks, pumping the LNG to pipeline pressure, vaporizing across heat exchanging equipment, and sending out through the pipeline to custody transfer metering for ultimate delivery to downstream interstate pipeline capacity. No gas conditioning is required since the incoming LNG will meet the gas quality specifications of the downstream pipelines. The deepwater port would be designed to handle a nominal capacity of 7.5 million metric tons per annum of LNG. This is equivalent to an average delivery of approximately 1.02 billion cubic feet per day (bcfd) of pipeline quality gas. In the Notice of Application, the applicant had identified five locations as possible fabrication sites for the concrete gravity-based structures which would be used to contain the LNG storage tanks. As a result of additional information during the development of this DEIS, three locations have been eliminated from further study. The two proposed locations for the fabrication sites are: • Big Bend Site, Freeport, TX; and • Kiewit Construction Site, Ingleside, TX. Dated: February 8, 2005. Howard L. Hime, Acting Director of Standards, Marine Safety, Security, and Environmental Protection, U.S. Coast Guard. H.
