Notice of Application
Take notice that on August 31, 2012,
Freeport LNG Development, L.P., FLNG
Liquefaction, LLC, FLNG Liquefaction 2,
LLC, and FLNG Liquefaction 3, LLC
(collectively referred to as Freeport)
filed an application pursuant to section
3(a) of the Natural Gas Act (NGA) and
Parts 153 and 380 of the Commission’s
regulations, requesting authorization to
site, construct, own, and operate natural
gas liquefaction and export facilities
located on Quintana Island, Brazoria
County, Texas. This filing may also be
viewed on the Commission’s Web site at
https://www.ferc.gov using the
‘‘eLibrary’’ link. Enter the docket
number, excluding the last three digits,
in the docket number field to access the
document. For assistance, call (866)
208–3676 or TTY, (202) 502–8659.
The proposed natural gas liquefaction
and export facilities will be constructed
adjacent to the existing Freeport LNG
Development, L.P.’s liquefied natural
gas (LNG) import terminal on Quintana
Island (Terminal). The main
liquefaction equipment will consist of
three liquefaction trains, each capable of
producing a nominal 4.4 million metric
tons of LNG per annum (mtpa), for a
total capacity of 13.2 mtpa. In addition,
Freeport also proposes to construct
natural gas pretreatment facilities,
located approximately 2.5 miles north of
the Terminal, and appurtenant
structures to support the natural gas
liquefaction and export operations.

application should be directed to John

On January 5, 2011, the Commission
staff granted Freeport’s request to use
the pre-filing process and assigned
Docket No. PF11–2–000 to staff
activities involving the proposed natural
gas liquefaction and export project.
Now, as of the filing of this application
on August 31, 2012, the NEPA PreFiling Process for this project has ended.
From this time forward, this proceeding
will be conducted in Docket No. CP12–
509–000, as noted in the caption of this
Notice.
Pursuant to Section 157.9 of the
Commission’s rules, 18 CFR 157.9,
within 90 days of this Notice the
Commission staff will either: complete
its environmental assessment (EA) and
place it into the Commission’s public
record (eLibrary) for this proceeding, or
issue a Notice of Schedule for
Environmental Review. If a Notice of
Schedule for Environmental Review is
issued, it will indicate, among other
milestones, the anticipated date for the
Commission staff’s issuance of the final
environmental impact statement (FEIS)
or EA for this proposal. The filing of the
EA in the Commission’s public record
for this proceeding or the issuance of a
Notice of Schedule for Environmental
Review will serve to notify federal and
state agencies of the timing for the
completion of all necessary reviews, and
the subsequent need to complete all
federal authorizations within 90 days of
the date of issuance of the Commission
staff’s FEIS or EA.
There are two ways to become
involved in the Commission’s review of
this project. First, any person wishing to
obtain legal status by becoming a party
to the proceedings for this project
should, on or before the comment date
stated below, file with the Federal
Energy Regulatory Commission, 888
First Street NE., Washington, DC 20426,
a motion to intervene in accordance
with the requirements of the
Commission’s Rules of Practice and
Procedure (18 CFR 385.214 or 385.211)
and the Regulations under the NGA (18
CFR 157.10). A person obtaining party
status will be placed on the service list
maintained by the Secretary of the
Commission and will receive copies of
all documents filed by the applicant and
by all other parties. A party must submit
14 copies of filings made with the
Commission and must mail a copy to
the applicant and to every other party in
the proceeding. Only parties to the
PO 00000
Frm 00031
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
proceeding can ask for court review of
Commission orders in the proceeding.
However, a person does not have to
intervene in order to have comments
considered. The second way to
participate is by filing with the
Secretary of the Commission, as soon as
possible, an original and two copies of
comments in support of or in opposition
to this project. The Commission will
consider these comments in
determining the appropriate action to be
taken, but the filing of a comment alone
will not serve to make the filer a party
to the proceeding. The Commission’s
rules require that persons filing
comments in opposition to the project
provide copies of their protests only to
the party or parties directly involved in
the protest.
Persons who wish to comment only
on the environmental review of this
project should submit an original and
two copies of their comments to the
Secretary of the Commission.
Environmental commenters will be
placed on the Commission’s
environmental mailing list, will receive
copies of the environmental documents,
and will be notified of meetings
associated with the Commission’s
environmental review process.
Environmental commenters will not be
required to serve copies of filed
documents on all other parties.
However, the non-party commenters
will not receive copies of all documents
filed by other parties or issued by the
Commission (except for the mailing of
environmental documents issued by the
Commission) and will not have the right
to seek court review of the
Commission’s final order.
Motions to intervene, protests and
comments may be filed electronically
via the internet in lieu of paper; see, 18
CFR 385.2001(a) (1) (iii) and the
instructions on the Commission’s web
site under the ‘‘e-Filing’’ link. The
Commission strongly encourages
electronic filings.

k. The Project Description: The
Muddy Run Pumped Storage Project
consists of four dams. The main dam is
a rock-filled structure across the Muddy
Run ravine with a central impervious
core, a maximum height of
approximately 260 feet and a total
length of 4,800 feet. The east dike is a
zoned-earth and rock-filled
embankment with a maximum height of
approximately 12 feet and a total length
of 800 feet. The recreation pond dike is
a zoned-earth and rock-filled
embankment with a maximum height of
approximately 90 feet and a total length
of 750 feet. The canal embankment has
a maximum height of approximately 35
feet. Total storage in the 900-acre
Muddy Run reservoir (upper reservoir)
is approximately 60,000 acre-feet and
the total useable storage is
approximately 35,500 acre-feet at the
maximum pool elevation of 520 feet.
The maximum pool elevation is
approximately 411 feet above the
normal elevation of Conowingo pond.
Conowingo pond (lower reservoir) has a
surface area of 9,000 acres and design
storage of approximately 310,000 acrefeet at the normal full pool elevation of
109.2 feet.
The main spillway is a non-gated
concrete ogee-type structure that is 200
feet long, 20 feet high and with crest
elevation of 521 feet, which is directed
to a vegetated natural ravine. The
recreation pond spillway is a rock-cut
channel approximately 140 feet wide
and with a crest elevation of 520 feet.
The power intake facilities consist of
four cylinder gates with trash racks in
a cylindrical tower. Each intake
supplies two units. Each intake leads to
a 430-foot-deep vertical shaft then to a
horizontal power tunnel, which divides
into two sections. The power tunnel
sections transition to a penstock that
leads to one of the eight reversible
pump-turbine units in the powerhouse.
The power plant is constructed of
concrete and is 133 feet wide and 600
feet long. It houses eight Francis
turbines each equipped with a 100–MW
generator. The powerhouse turbines
each have a hydraulic capacity of 4,000
cfs, for a total discharge capacity from
the powerhouse of 32,000 cfs. The
PO 00000
Frm 00032
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 9990
58119
pumping capacity of the pump turbines
is 3,500 cfs each for a total powerhouse
pumping capability of 28,000 cfs. Water
flowing through the turbines is
discharged via the draft tubes into the
Susquehanna River adjacent to the
powerhouse. The units are equipped
with trash racks between the draft tube
outlet and the river.
Electricity generated at the project is
transmitted by two individual 220-kV
transmission lines extending from the
project switching station approximately
4.25 miles to the Peach Bottom Atomic
Power Station (PBAPS) North
Substation located in York County.
The Muddy Run Project has an
authorized nameplate generating
capacity of 800 MW and generates an
average of 1,610,611 MWh annually.
Exelon is not proposing any new or
upgraded facilities or structural changes
to the project at this time. Also, Exelon
has engaged interested stakeholders to
participate in the development of a
comprehensive settlement agreement
based on collaborative negotiation of
specific terms and conditions for the
new Muddy Run license.
l. Locations of the Application: A
copy of the application is available for

Reference Room or may be viewed on
