Notice of application. AGENCY: ACTION: The Office of Fossil Energy (FE) of the Department of Energy (DOE) gives notice of receipt of an application (Application), filed on November 5, 2015, by Flint Hills Resources, LP (Flint Hills), requesting long-term, multicontract authorization to export domestically produced liquefied natural gas (LNG) primarily by use of approved ISO IMO7–TVAC–ASME LNG (ISO) containers transported on ocean-going carriers 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 Flint Hills seeks authorization to export the LNG in a volume equivalent to approximately 3.62 billion cubic feet of natural gas per year (Bcf/yr) (0.01 Bcf per day), which it states is approximately 120,000 gallons of LNG per day. Flint Hills seeks to purchase the LNG for export from a LNG liquefaction facility owned by Stabilis mstockstill on DSK4VPTVN1PROD with NOTICES SUMMARY: 1 In the Application, Flint Hills also requests authorization to export 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). DOE/FE will review that request for a FTA export authorization separately pursuant to NGA section 3(c), 15 U.S.C. 717b(c). VerDate Sep<11>2014 22:15 Feb 12, 2016 Jkt 238001 LNG Eagle Ford, LLC (Stabilis Facility), located in George West, Texas.2 According to Flint Hills, the Stabilis Facility has the capacity to produce 120,000 gallons of LNG per day and to store approximately 270,000 gallons of LNG. Flint Hills states that the Stabilis Facility is currently operational and can accommodate both ISO container loadings and tanker truck loadings.3 Flint Hill therefore asserts that no additional plant infrastructure will be required as a result of the proposed exports. Flint Hills requests the authorization for a 20-year term to commence on the earlier of the date of first commercial export or a date three months from the issuance of a final order granting the requested authorization. Flint Hills seeks to export this LNG on its own behalf and as agent for other entities who hold title to the LNG at the time of export. The Application was filed under section 3 of the Natural Gas Act (NGA). Additional details can be found in Flint Hills’s Application, posted on the DOE/FE Web site at: https://energy.gov/sites/prod/ files/2015/11/f27/15_168_lng%20fta_ nfta.pdf. Protests, motions to intervene, notices of intervention, and written comments are invited. DATES: Protests, motions to intervene or notices of intervention, as applicable, requests for additional procedures, and written comments are to be filed using procedures detailed in the Public Comment Procedures section no later than 4:30 p.m., Eastern time, April 18, 2016.

App. at 3 n.4. 3 Flint Hills states that it generally intends to use ISO containers to export LNG. Under this scenario, the ISO containers will be trucked to a port or dock located along the Gulf Coast, where the containers will be loaded onto a barge or ship for delivery to non-FTA countries. If Flint Hills uses tanker trucks, it will truck LNG from the Stabilis Facility directly to a bulk transport barge, ship, or floating storage container for distribution to customers in both FTA and non-FTA countries. App. at 4–5. Appendix A of the Application contains a list of ports from which Flint Hills may export LNG.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: DOE/FE Evaluation The Application will be reviewed pursuant to section 3(a) of the NGA, 15 U.S.C. 717b(a), and DOE will consider any issues required by law or policy. To the extent determined to be relevant, these issues will include the domestic need for the natural gas proposed to be exported, the adequacy of domestic natural gas supply, U.S. energy security, and the cumulative impact of the requested authorization and any other LNG export application(s) previously approved on domestic natural gas supply and demand fundamentals. DOE may also consider other factors bearing on the public interest, including the impact of the proposed exports on the U.S. economy (including GDP, consumers, and industry), job creation, the U.S. balance of trade, and international considerations; and whether the authorization is consistent with DOE’s policy of promoting competition in the marketplace by allowing commercial parties to freely negotiate their own trade arrangements. As part of this analysis, DOE will consider the following two studies examining the cumulative impacts of LNG: • Effect of Increased Levels of Liquefied Natural Gas on U.S. Energy Markets, conducted by the U.S. Energy Information Administration upon DOE’s request (2014 EIA LNG Export Study); 4 and • The Macroeconomic Impact of Increasing U.S. LNG Exports, conducted jointly by the Center for Energy Studies at Rice University’s Baker Institute for Public Policy and Oxford Economics, on 4 The 2014 EIA LNG Export Study, published on Oct. 29, 2014, is available at: https://www.eia.gov/ analysis/requests/fe/.
