Notice of application. The Office of Fossil Energy (FE) of the Department of Energy (DOE) gives notice of receipt of an application (Application), filed on February 9, 2015, by Venture Global Calcasieu Pass, LLC (Calcasieu Pass), requesting long-term, multi-contract authorization to export liquefied natural gas (LNG) produced from domestic sources in a volume equivalent to approximately 132.8 billion cubic feet per year (Bcf/yr) of natural gas (0.36 Bcf/day). Calcasieu Pass seeks authorization to export the LNG by vessel from the proposed Venture Global Calcasieu Pass Project, a natural gas liquefaction and LNG export terminal to be located on the Calcasieu Ship Channel in Cameron Parish, Louisiana (Project). Calcasieu Pass requests authorization to export this LNG to any country with which the United States does not have a free trade agreement (FTA) requiring national treatment for trade in natural gas, and with which trade is not prohibited by U.S. law or policy (non-FTA countries).1 Calcasieu Pass states that the requested export volume (132.8 Bcf/yr) is incremental and therefore additive to the volume of LNG requested for export in its two non-FTA export applications currently pending in DOE/FE Docket Nos. 13–69–LNG and 14–88–LNG SUMMARY: 1 In the Application, Calcasieu Pass also requests authorization to export the same volume of LNG to any nation that currently has, or in the future may enter into, a FTA requiring national treatment for trade in natural gas, and with which trade is not prohibited by U.S. law or policy (FTA countries). On June 17, 2015, DOE/FE granted that request in Order No. 3662 pursuant to NGA § 3(c), 15 U.S.C. 717b(c). See Venture Global Calcasieu Pass, LLC, DOE/FE Order No. 3662, FE Docket No. 15–25– LNG, Order Granting Long-Term, Multi-Contract Authorization to Export Liquefied Natural Gas By Vessel from the Proposed Venture Global Calcasieu Pass LNG Project in Cameron Parish, Louisiana, to Free Trade Agreement Nations (June 17, 2015). Calcasieu Pass also holds two other long-term FTA export authorizations from DOE/FE, originally granted to Calcasieu Pass’s predecessor, Venture Global LNG, LLC (Venture Global). In a notice issued on December 3, 2014, DOE/FE recognized that all rights and obligations under those orders transferred from Venture Global to Calcasieu Pass, following a corporate reorganization.
