in the above referenced docket, an
application pursuant to section 3 of the
natural Gas Act (NGA) and Part 153,
Subpart B, of the Commission’s
regulations for an amendment to the
authorizations granted by the
Commission on February 21, 2019 in
Docket No. CP15–550–000. Those
actions authorized Calcasieu Pass to
site, construct, and operate a new
liquified natural gas (LNG) export
terminal and associated facilities
(Export Terminal) along the Calcasieu
Ship Channel in Cameron Parish,
Louisiana. In this amendment Calcasieu
Pass proposes to increase the Export
Terminal’s peak achievable liquefaction
capacity from 12.0 million metric tons
per annum (MTPA) to 12.4 MTPA of
LNG under optimal operating
conditions. Calcasieu Pass states that
the requested increase in peak
liquefaction capacity reflects
refinements in the conditions and
assumptions concerning the maximum
potential operations and does not
involve construction of any new
facilities nor any modification of the
previously authorized facilities, all as
more fully set forth in the application
which is on file with the Commission
and open to public inspection.

time allowed for protest. If a protest is
filed and not withdrawn within 30 days
after the time allowed for filing a
protest, the instant request for
authorization will be considered by the
Commission.
Protests must comply with the
requirements specified in section
157.205(e) of the Commission’s
regulations,4 and must be submitted by
the protest deadline, which is January 5,
2022. A protest may also serve as a
motion to intervene so long as the
protestor states it also seeks to be an
intervenor.
Interventions
Any person has the option to file a
motion to intervene in this proceeding.
Only intervenors have the right to
request rehearing of Commission orders
issued in this proceeding and to
subsequently challenge the

Notice of Availability of Final
Engineering Guidelines for the
Evaluation of Hydropower Projects:
Chapter 16—Part 12D Program
The staff of the Federal Energy
Regulatory Commission (FERC or
Commission) has prepared a final
‘‘Chapter 16—Part 12D Program’’ of its
Engineering Guidelines for the
Evaluation of Hydropower Projects
(Guidelines). This chapter is one of four
new chapters of the Guidelines intended
to provide additional guidance related
to 18 CFR part 12, Safety of Water
Power Projects and Project Works,
Docket No. RM20–9–000, Order No 880,
issued by the Commission on December
16, 2021.
On July 16, 2020, the Commission
issued a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking
(NOPR) to revise its part 12 regulations.
On the same day, the Commission
solicited public review and comment on
four new draft chapters of its
Guidelines. Draft Chapter 16 was part of
that issuance.
The Commission received twelve
comment letters in response to draft
Chapter 16. Most of the comments were
submitted by licensees and individuals
through trade associations, including
National Hydropower Association, Dam
Safety Interest Group of CEATI
International, and US Society on Dams,
as well as the US Army Corps of
Engineers. Comments were also
received from individual licensees,
corporations, and individuals, including
David L. Mathews, McMillen Jacobs
Associates, City of North Little Rock
Electric, Kodiak Electric Association,
Alaska Electric Light and Power
Company, Central Nebraska Public
Power and Irrigation District, Copper

Valley Electric Association, and Upper
Peninsular Power Company.
In all, the twelve comment letters
consisted of approximately 335 discrete
comments. The comments received
were varied. Most comments requested
clarification of scope, schedule
requirements, and other details of the
Part 12D process and procedures.
Commenters asked the Commission to:
• Provide additional guidance and
clarification regarding the Part 12D
process, schedule, and review
durations;
• Clarify the difference between a
Comprehensive Assessment waiver and
a Part 12D exemption;
• Consider deleting the requirement
to submit a Pre-inspection Preparation
Report since this task adds additional
burden and cost of performing a Part
12D report;
• Provide additional guidance
regarding the limitations of the
Independent Consultant Team and the
Licensee to communicate and review
the draft Part 12D recommendations;
• Provide clarification that limits the
Independent Consultant team from
reviewing their own prior work on the
project;
• Provide additional guidance and
explanation of the Independent
Consultant Team qualifications and
experience requirements;
• Clarify the role of the Independent
Consultant versus the role of the
Potential Failure Mode Analysis/Risk
Analysis facilitator;
• Clarify the potential postponement
of the site inspection due to submittal
of an insufficient Pre-inspection
Preparation Report;
• Clarify the review requirements of
the Owner’s Dam Safety Program
(ODSP) and how that review differs
from an ODSP audit;
• Clarify what is expected of the
Independent Consultant Team in
performing independent calculations as
part of the Comprehensive Assessment
Report;
• Clarify the scope of work for the
physical site inspection, including
spillway gate testing and inspection of
inaccessible features; and
• Include additional information on
the purpose of the Comprehensive
Assessment Review Meeting or, in the
alternative, consider deleting this
requirement.
Commission staff has considered all
comments in finalizing Chapter 16 of
the Engineering Guidelines. Based on
the comments received, Chapter 16 has
been revised to:
• Provide additional guidance on:
Æ The Part 12D process and schedule;
Æ the limitations of an individual
performing consecutive inspections,
PO 00000
Frm 00038

Æ the review requirements of the
ODSP;
Æ the scope of the physical site
inspection;
Æ the evaluation of spillway
adequacy;
Æ the summary of findings for the

• Remove the requirement that the
Potential Failure Mode Analysis/Risk
Analysis facilitator must be from a
different organization or company than
the Independent Consultant Team; and
• Update the appendices, as
appropriate.

Any person wishing to comment on the project may do so. The
Commission considers all comments received about the project in
determining the appropriate action to be taken. To ensure that your
comments are timely and properly recorded, please submit your comments
on or before January 5, 2022. The filing of a comment alone will not
serve to make the filer a party to the proceeding. To become a party,
you must intervene in the proceeding.

comments. In both instances, please reference the Project docket number
