Jkt 250001
Docket No. CP14–517–000 that granted
Golden Pass LNG authority to site,
construct, and operate facilities for the
exportation of liquefied natural gas
(LNG). Golden Pass LNG proposes to
increase the total LNG production
capacity of the Golden Pass Export
Project in Jefferson County, Texas. The
proposed project is known as the
Golden Pass Amendment Project
(Project).
On May 28, 2020, the Federal Energy
Regulatory Commission (Commission or
FERC) issued its Notice of Application
for the Project. Among other things, that
notice alerted agencies issuing federal
authorizations of the requirement to
complete all necessary reviews and to
reach a final decision on a request for
a federal authorization within 90 days of
the date of issuance of the Commission
staff’s Environmental Assessment (EA)
for the Project. This instant notice
identifies the FERC staff’s planned
schedule for the completion of the EA
for the Project.
Schedule for Environmental Review
Issuance of EA—November 6, 2020
90-day Federal Authorization Decision
Deadline—February 4, 2021
If a schedule change becomes

progress.
Project Description
The Project would increase the
authorized LNG production capacity of
Golden Pass LNG’s facilities currently
under construction from 15.6 million
metric tons per annum (MTPA) to 18.1
MTPA. The Project LNG capacity
increasewould not require any
additional facility construction. Golden
Pass LNG states the increase is based on
a recalculation of the maximum design
LNG production capability of the
facilities. Golden Pass LNG would
coordinate with the U.S. Coast Guard
regarding any potential increases in
marine traffic due to the capacity
increase.
