Federal Register / Vol. 77, No. 183 / Thursday, September 20, 2012 / Notices
Questions regarding this application
should be directed to Larry Jensen, 2800
Post Oak Boulevard, Houston, Texas
77056, telephone (713) 215–3034.
Discovery has requested that the
Commission issue a final order in this
proceeding by January 31, 2013, to
enable Discovery to commence
construction of the proposed facilities to
meet a July 1, 2014 in-service date. As
Discovery’s proposed facilities entirely
in the federal waters of the Gulf of
Mexico, the Project facilities will qualify
for categorical exclusions in accordance
with 18 CFR 380.(4)(a)(33) and 18 CFR
380.4(a)(34) which state ‘‘* * * neither
an environmental assessment nor an
environmental impact statement shall
be prepared for the following projects or
actions: * * * (33) construction or
abandonment of facilities constructed
entirely in Federal offshore waters that
has been approved by the Mineral
Management Service and the Corps of
Engineers, as necessary; (34)
Abandonment or construction facilities
on an existing offshore platform.’’ Thus
the application must be approved by the
Bureau of Safety and Environmental
Enforcement of the U.S. Department of
the Interior, successor to the Mineral
Management Service for this approval
function, prior to the project being
considered by the Commission as
eligible for a categorical exclusion
classification under the Commission’s
environmental review process.
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, before the comment date of this
notice, 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
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
VerDate Mar<15>2010
16:11 Sep 19, 2012
Jkt 226001
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.
The Commission strongly encourages
electronic filings of comments, protests,
and interventions via the internet in lieu
of paper. See 18 CFR 385.2001(a)(1)(iii)
and the instructions on the
Commission’s Web site (www.ferc.gov)
under the ‘‘e-Filing’’ link. Persons
unable to file electronically should
submit an original and 14 copies of the
protest or intervention to the Federal
Energy regulatory Commission, 888
First Street NE., Washington, DC 20426.
Comment Date: 5 p.m. Eastern Time
on October 5, 2012.
Dated: September 14, 2012.

Trunkline LNG Company, LLC;
Trunkline LNG Export, LLC; Trunkline
Gas Company, LLC; Notice of Intent To
Prepare an Environmental Impact
Statement for the Planned Lake
Charles Liquefaction Project, Request
for Comments on Environmental
Issues, and Notice of Public Scoping
Meeting
The staff of the Federal Energy
Regulatory Commission (FERC or
Commission) will prepare an
environmental impact statement (EIS)
that will discuss the environmental
impacts of the Lake Charles
Liquefaction Project involving
construction and operation of facilities
by Trunkline LNG Company, LLC/
Trunkline LNG Export, LLC, and
Trunkline Gas Company, LLC
(Trunkline) in Calcasieu Parish,
Louisiana. The Commission will use
this EIS in its decision-making process
to determine whether the project is in
the public convenience and necessity.
This notice announces the opening of
the scoping process the Commission
will use to gather input from the public
and interested agencies on the project.
Your input will help the Commission
staff determine what issues they need to
evaluate in the EIS. Please note that the
scoping period will close on October 15,
2012.
You may submit comments in written
form or verbally. Further details on how
to submit written comments are in the
Public Participation section of this
notice. In lieu of or in addition to
sending written comments, the
Commission invites you to attend the
public scoping meeting scheduled as
follows: FERC Public Scoping Meeting,
Lake Charles Liquefaction Project,
VerDate Mar<15>2010
16:11 Sep 19, 2012
October 3, 2012, 6:00 p.m. local time,
Holiday Inn, 330 Arena Road, Sulphur,
Louisiana 70665, (337) 527–0858.
This notice is being sent to the
Commission’s current environmental
mailing list for this project. State and
local government representatives should
notify their constituents of this planned
project and encourage them to comment
on their areas of concern.
A fact sheet prepared by the FERC
entitled ‘‘An Interstate Natural Gas
Facility on My Land? What Do I Need
To Know?’’ is available for viewing on
the FERC Web site (www.ferc.gov). This
fact sheet addresses a number of
typically asked questions, including the
use of eminent domain and how to
participate in the Commission’s
proceedings.
Jkt 226001
Trunkline plans to expand its existing
liquefied natural gas (LNG) terminal in
Calcasieu Parish, Louisiana to liquefy
natural gas and export the LNG. The
planned facility would be capable of
processing about 2.4 billion cubic feet
per day of natural gas, which would be
supplied by the existing pipeline
currently used to send out regasified
LNG from the existing LNG terminal,
and be capable of exporting
approximately 15 million metric tons of
LNG per year.
The Lake Charles Liquefaction Project
would consist of the following facilities:
• Up to three liquefaction trains (each
train contains metering and gas
treatment facilities, liquefaction and
refrigerant units, safety and control
systems, and associated infrastructure);
• Approximately 0.27 mile of 36inch-diameter feed gas line to supply
natural gas to the liquefaction facility
from existing gas transmission
pipelines;
• Approximately 0.51 mile of LNG
transfer and vapor lines between the
existing LNG terminal and the planned
liquefaction facility; and
• Modifications and upgrades at the
existing LNG terminal.
Trunkline plans to initiate
construction of the planned project in
March 2014 in order to commence
operation in March 2018. The general
location of the project facilities is shown
in appendix 1.1
1 The appendices referenced in this notice will
not appear in the Federal Register. Copies of the
appendices were sent to all those receiving this
notice in the mail and are available at www.ferc.gov
using the link called ‘‘eLibrary’’ or from the
Commission’s Public Reference Room, 888 First
Street NE., Washington, DC 20426, or call (202)

Land Requirements for Construction
The planned liquefaction facilities
would be constructed on an
approximately 240-acre undeveloped
site located immediately north of the
existing LNG terminal. Trunkline would
disturb approximately 230 acres during
construction and maintain about 125
acres for permanent operation of the
liquefaction facilities. Construction of
the planned feed gas pipeline, LNG line,
and vapor lines would be included in
the 240-acre construction site and
additional property within the
perimeter of the existing LNG terminal.
Modifications to take place at the
existing LNG terminal would occur
within the existing terminal boundaries.
The EIS Process
The National Environmental Policy
Act (NEPA) requires the Commission to
take into account the environmental
impacts that could result from an action
whenever it considers the issuance of a
Certificate of Public Convenience and
Necessity. NEPA also requires us 2 to
discover and address concerns the
public may have about proposals. This
process is referred to as scoping. The
main goal of the scoping process is to
focus the analysis in the EIS on the
important environmental issues. By this
notice, the Commission requests public
comments on the scope of the issues to
address in the EIS. We will consider all
filed comments during the preparation
of the EIS.
In the EIS we will discuss impacts
that could occur as a result of the
construction and operation of the
planned project under these general
headings:
• Geology and soils;
• Land use;
• Water resources and wetlands;
• Cultural resources;
• Vegetation, fisheries, and wildlife;
• Socioeconomics;
• Air quality and noise;
• Endangered and threatened species;
and
• Public safety.
We will also evaluate possible
alternatives to the planned project or
portions of the project, and make
recommendations on how to lessen or
avoid impacts on the various resource
areas.
Although no formal application has
been filed, we have already initiated our
NEPA review under the Commission’s
pre-filing process. The purpose of the
pre-filing process is to encourage early
involvement of interested stakeholders

environmental staff of the Commission’s Office of
Energy Projects.
