Federal Register / Vol. 86, No. 125 / Friday, July 2, 2021 / Notices
Sierra Club filed a Request for
Rehearing of the Alaska LNG Order, and
AGDC filed a Motion for Leave to
Answer and Answer to Sierra Club’s
Request for Rehearing.12 On April 15,
2021, DOE/FE issued the Rehearing
Order in which DOE/FE: (i) Granted
AGDC’s Motion for Leave to Answer; (ii)
granted Sierra Club’s Rehearing Request
for the purpose of conducting the
Alaska environmental study proceeding;
and (ii) denied Sierra Club’s request for
DOE/FE to withdraw the Alaska LNG
Order, without prejudice to Sierra
Club’s ability to request relief in the
future, should circumstances change.13
DOE/FE explained that, since the
issuance of the Alaska LNG Order and
while DOE/FE’s action on Sierra Club’s
Rehearing Request was pending, the
President had issued two Executive
Orders (E.O.) relevant to the Alaska LNG
proceeding: E.O. 13990, Protecting
Public Health and the Environment and
Restoring Science to Tackle the Climate
Crisis,14 and E.O. 14008, Tackling the
Climate Crisis at Home and Abroad.15
Consistent with these Executive Orders
and to address Sierra Club’s arguments
on rehearing, DOE stated that it was
appropriate to further evaluate the
environmental impacts of exporting
LNG from the proposed Alaska LNG
Project to non-FTA countries. Therefore,
DOE/FE announced that it was
commissioning the Alaska
environmental study proceeding.16

Supplemental EIS (SEIS)
DOE/FE intends to prepare a SEIS for
the Alaska environmental study
proceeding. The SEIS will include an
12 See Rehearing Order at 5–6 (providing
additional background on DOE’s rehearing
proceeding). Sierra Club’s and AGDC’s arguments
on rehearing are summarized in the Rehearing
Order at 6–10.

Public Health and the Environment and Restoring
Science to Tackle the Climate Crisis, 86 FR 7037
(Jan. 25, 2021), available at: https://
www.federalregister.gov/documents/2021/01/25/
2021-01765/protecting-public-health-and-theenvironment-and-restoring-science-to-tackle-theclimate-crisis. E.O. 13990 directs agencies to
‘‘immediately review’’ all regulations, orders, and
other actions issued after January 20, 2017, that may
increase GHG emissions or have other impacts on
climate change.
15 Exec. Order No. 14008 of Jan. 27, 2021,
Tackling the Climate Crisis at Home and Abroad,
86 FR 7619 (Feb. 1, 2021), available at: https://
www.federalregister.gov/documents/2021/02/01/
2021-02177/tackling-the-climate-crisis-at-homeand-abroad. E.O. 14008 sets forth additional
policies to address climate change—specifically to
‘‘organize and deploy the full capacity of [Federal]
agencies to combat the climate crisis’’—and
requires the ‘‘Federal Government [to] drive
assessment, disclosure, and mitigation of climate
pollution and climate-related risks in every sector’’
of the U.S. economy.

upstream analysis of potential
environmental impacts associated with
natural gas production on the North
Slope of Alaska. This analysis will
examine potential upstream impacts
associated with incremental natural gas
production on the North Slope of Alaska
due to Alaska LNG’s exports of LNG.
In addition, the SEIS will include a
LCA calculating the GHG emissions for
LNG exported from the proposed Alaska
LNG Project, taking into account unique
issues relating to production, pipeline
transportation, and liquefaction in
Alaska.17 Specifically, the LCA will
examine the life cycle GHG emissions
for LNG exported from Alaska by vessel
to import markets in Asia (the markets
targeted for exports from Alaska) and
potentially in other regions.
DOE/FE has commissioned DOE’s
National Energy Technology Laboratory
(NETL) to conduct both studies.
Potential Areas of Environmental
Analysis
For the upstream production study,
DOE/FE has tentatively identified the
following resource areas for analysis
(although the following list is not
intended to be comprehensive or to
predetermine the potential impacts to be
analyzed): Land use and visual
resources; geology and soils; water
resources; air quality and noise;
ecological resources; cultural and
paleontological resources;
infrastructure; waste management;
occupational and public health and
safety; socioeconomics; transportation;
and environmental justice. For the LCA,
DOE/FE will examine the global nature
of GHG emissions associated with
exports of LNG from Alaska from a life
cycle perspective, as stated previously.
NEPA Process and Public Participation
in the SEIS
DOE/FE will prepare the SEIS in
accordance with the Council on
Environmental Quality (CEQ)
regulations at 40 CFR parts 1500–1508
and DOE NEPA implementing
procedures at 10 CFR part 1021. In
accordance with 10 CFR 1021.311(f), a
public scoping process is not required
for a DOE-issued SEIS. DOE/FE will
issue a notice in the Federal Register
17 DOE/FE previously has explained that a LCA
is a method of accounting for cradle-to-grave GHG
emissions over a single common denominator. DOE
considers GHG emissions from all processes in the
LNG supply chains—from the ‘‘cradle’’ when
natural gas is extracted from the ground, to the
‘‘grave’’ when electricity is used by the consumer.
