SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: JCEP’s Application, filed on March 23, 2012, seeks authority to export domestically produced liquefied natural gas (LNG) in a volume equivalent to 292 billion cubic feet per year (Bcf/yr) of natural gas (0.8 Bcf per day (Bcf/d)) from the proposed Jordan Cove LNG Terminal to be located on Coos Bay, Oregon, to nations with which the United States does not have a free trade agreement (FTA) requiring national treatment for trade in natural gas (non-FTA nations) (77 FR 33446). On March 24, 2014, DOE issued DOE/ FE Order No. 3413, conditionally granting Jordan Cove’s Application in the requested volume of 292 Bcf/yr for a term of 20 years (Conditional NonFTA Authorization). On October 5, 2015, JCEP filed an amendment to its Application (81 FR 11202), asking DOE/ FE to increase its requested non-FTA LNG export volume from the equivalent of 292 Bcf/yr to 350 Bcf/yr of natural gas (0.96 Bcf/d). At that time, JCEP did not seek to amend its Conditional Non-FTA Authorization. DOE/FE has not yet issued a final order on JCEP’s Non-FTA Application, and its requested 2015 amendment remains pending as part of the Application proceeding. In this Amendment, JCEP again seeks to increase its volume of LNG exports— to the equivalent of 395 Bcf/yr (1.08 Bcf/ d) of natural gas—as approved in its Conditional Non-FTA Authorization (DOE/FE Order No. 3413) and as requested in its Non-FTA Application. JCEP states that the purpose of this Amendment is to conform its requested export volume to the proposed production capacity of the LNG Terminal in JCEP’s current application at the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC). On September 21, 2017, JCEP filed an application at FERC (FERC Docket No. CP17–495–000) requesting authorization to site, construct, and operate the LNG Terminal with a proposed maximum capacity of 7.8 million metric tons per annum of LNG, equivalent to 395 Bcf/ yr of natural gas. JCEP states that this FERC application reflects changes to the production capacity of its proposed facilities at the LNG Terminal, as well as additional engineering analysis. Although JCEP’s application at FERC remains pending, JCEP states that it wishes to align its requested export volume with its requested facilities at FERC. Additionally, JCEP asks that, if and when DOE/FE issues an order granting the requested Amendment to the Conditional Non-FTA Authorization, E:\FR\FM\19APN1.SGM 19APN1
