The licensee has requested Commission authorization to lease to Long Island Marina, Inc. (Long Island) 3.239 acres of project lands for a commercial marina at the existing, previously approved Long Island Marina on Lake Norman in Catawba County, North Carolina. Long Island proposes to re-configure and upgrade the marina. Dredging of 1700 cubic yards of lake-bed would be required for this reconfiguration. The marina would serve the general public and the residents of Long Island Resorts. The EA evaluates the environmental impacts that would result from approving the licensee’s proposal to grant Long Island permission to expand and reconfigure its marina facilities. The EA finds that approval of the application would not constitute a major federal action significantly affecting the quality of the human environment.

The Commission staff has determined that discussing with the parties the issues raised by the Court would assist staff in evaluating these matters. The July 28, 2008 Notice also stated that the Commission is convening this Technical Conference in order that the parties and the Commission Staff can discuss whether and when the Cove Point Expansion Project can go forward without causing unsafe leakage consistent with the public interest. Specifically, the participants should be prepared to discuss the nature and progress of remedial measures taken to date, as well as the need and benefit of any other remedial measures that might be taken by WGL and Dominion Cove Point LNG, LP so that WGL’s system can safely accommodate the increased amounts of regasified LNG from Cove Point’s LNG import terminal.
