Public Comment Procedures
requests that the DOE/FE issue the
export authorization to non-FTA
countries conditioned on the FERC’s
completion of its NEPA review and
approval of the facility construction.
TLNG Export states that DOE/FE
routinely issues orders with such a
condition.19

DOE/FE Evaluation
The Application will be reviewed
pursuant to section 3 of the NGA, as
amended, and the authority contained
in DOE Delegation Order No. 00–
002.00L (April 29, 2011) and DOE
Redelegation Order No. 00–002.04E
(April 29, 2011). In reviewing this LNG
export Application, DOE will consider
any issues required by law or policy. To
the extent determined to be relevant or
appropriate, these issues will include
the impact of LNG exports associated
with this Application, and the
cumulative impact of any other
application(s) previously approved, on
domestic need for the gas proposed for
export, adequacy of domestic natural
gas supply, U.S. energy security, and
any other issues, including the impact
on the U.S. economy (GDP), consumers,
and industry, job creation, U.S. balance
of trade, international considerations,
and whether the arrangement is
consistent with DOE’s policy of
promoting competition in the
marketplace by allowing commercial
parties to freely negotiate their own
trade arrangements. Parties that may
oppose this Application should address
these issues in their comments and/or
protests, as well as any other issues
deemed relevant to the Application.
NEPA requires DOE to give
appropriate consideration to the
environmental effects of its proposed
decisions. No final decision will be
issued in this proceeding until DOE has
met its environmental responsibilities.
Due to the complexity of the issues
raised by the Applicants, interested
persons will be provided 60 days from
the date of publication of this Notice in
which to submit comments, protests,
motions to intervene, notices of
intervention, or motions for additional
procedures.

FE Order No. 2961 at 41 (May 20, 2011); Yukon
Pacific Corp., ERA Docket No. 87–68–LNG, Order
No. 350 (November 16, 1989) (‘‘The DOE believes
that energy projects can and must be undertaken
consistent with environmentally acceptable
practices. To ensure this result, the DOE is
attaching a condition to the export approval that all
aspects of the export project must be undertaken in
accordance with the appropriate environmental
review process and must comply with any and all
preventative and mitigative measures imposed by
Federal or State agencies.’’); see also Rochester Gas
and Electric Corp., FE Docket No. 90–05–NG, Order

may file a protest, comments, or a
motion to intervene or notice of
intervention, as applicable. Any person
wishing to become a party to the
proceeding must file a motion to
intervene or notice of intervention, as
applicable. The filing of comments or a
protest with respect to the Application
will not serve to make the commenter or
protestant a party to the proceeding,
although protests and comments
received from persons who are not
parties will be considered in
determining the appropriate action to be
taken on the Application. All protests,
comments, motions to intervene or
notices of intervention must meet the

A decisional record on the
Application will be developed through
responses to this notice by parties,
including the parties’ written comments
and replies thereto. Additional
procedures will be used as necessary to
achieve a complete understanding of the
facts and issues. A party seeking
intervention may request that additional
procedures be provided, such as
additional written comments, an oral
presentation, a conference, or trial-type
hearing. Any request to file additional
written comments should explain why
they are necessary. Any request for an
oral presentation should identify the
substantial question of fact, law, or
policy at issue, show that it is material
and relevant to a decision in the
proceeding, and demonstrate why an
oral presentation is needed. Any request
for a conference should demonstrate
why the conference would materially
advance the proceeding. Any request for
a trial-type hearing must show that there
are factual issues genuinely in dispute
that are relevant and material to a
decision and that a trial-type hearing is
necessary for a full and true disclosure
of the facts.

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
7 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
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 commentors 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 commentors will not be
required to serve copies of filed
documents on all other parties.
However, the non-party commentors
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.
The Commission strongly encourages
electronic filings of comments, protests
and interventions in lieu of paper using
the ‘‘eFiling’’ link at https://
www.ferc.gov. Persons unable to file
electronically should submit an original
and 7 copies of the protest or
intervention to the Federal Energy
Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street
NE., Washington, DC 20426.
This filing is accessible on-line at
https://www.ferc.gov, using the
‘‘eLibrary’’ link and is available for
review in the Commission’s Public
Reference Room in Washington, DC.
There is an ‘‘eSubscription’’ link on the
Web site that enables subscribers to
receive email notification when a
document is added to a subscribed
docket(s). For assistance with any FERC
Online service, please email
FERCOnlineSupport@ferc.gov, or call
