Energy.
ACTION: Notice of application.
AGENCY:
The Office of Fossil Energy
and Carbon Management (FECM) of the
Department of Energy (DOE) gives
notice (Notice) of receipt of an
application (Application), filed on
December 28, 2022, by Mexico Pacific
Limited LLC (MPL). MPL requests
authority to engage in additional longterm, multi-contract exports of U.S.sourced natural gas by pipeline to
Mexico and to re-export such natural
gas as liquefied natural gas (LNG) from
its proposed liquefaction and export
facility, the MPL Facility, to be located
in the State of Sonora, Mexico, in a
volume equivalent to 291.22 billion
cubic feet per year (Bcf/yr), to non-free
trade agreement (non-FTA) countries.
MPL filed the Application under section
3 of the Natural Gas Act (NGA).
DATES: Protests, motions to intervene, or
notices of intervention, as applicable,
and written comments are to be filed
electronically as detailed in the Public
Comment Procedures section no later
than 4:30 p.m., Eastern time, April 3,
2023.
ADDRESSES: Electronic Filing by email:
fergas@hq.doe.gov.
Although DOE has routinely accepted
public comment submissions through a
variety of mechanisms, including postal
mail and hand delivery/courier, DOE
has found it necessary to make
temporary modifications to the
comment submission process in light of
the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic. DOE is
currently accepting only electronic
submissions at this time. If a commenter
finds that this change poses an undue
hardship, please contact Office of
Resource Sustainability staff at (202)
586–4749 or (202) 586–7893 to discuss
the need for alternative arrangements.
Once the Covid-19 pandemic health
emergency is resolved, DOE anticipates
resuming all of its regular options for
public comment submission, including
postal mail and hand delivery/courier.

Currently,
in separate Docket No. 18–70–LNG,
Order No. 4312,1 as amended, MPL is
authorized to export U.S.-sourced
natural gas by pipeline from the United
States to Mexico for liquefaction in
Mexico and re-export the natural gas in
the form of LNG in a volume equivalent
to 621 Bcf/yr of natural gas to any
country with which the United States
has not entered into 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),
through December 31, 2050, pursuant to
NGA section 3(a), 15 U.S.C. 717b(a).2
MPL is authorized to re-export this LNG
from the proposed MPL Facility, to be
located on the Gulf of California
adjacent to Puerto Libertad, Mexico,
approximately 160 miles south of the
United States-Mexico border.
In this Application filed in Docket No.
22–167–LNG, MPL states that it has
determined through improvements to
the design of the MPL Facility’s three
liquefaction trains it will be capable of
producing an additional volume of LNG
for re-export. In light of this design
increase, MPL asks DOE to authorize the
re-export of an additional 291.22 Bcf/yr
of natural gas in the form of LNG from
the MPL Facility to non-FTA countries.3
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
1 Mexico Pacific Limited LLC, DOE/FE Order No.
4312, Docket No. 18–70–LNG, Opinion and Order
Granting Long-Term, Multi-Contract Authorization
to Export U.S.-Sourced Natural Gas by Pipeline to
Mexico for Liquefaction and Re-Export in the Form
of Liquefied Natural Gas to Non-Free Trade
Agreement Countries (Dec. 14, 2018), amended by
DOE/FECM Order No. 4312–A (Jun. 3, 2022)
(extending export term).
2 MPL notes that, in Docket No. 18–70–LNG, it is
authorized to export LNG from the MPL Facility to
FTA countries in a volume equivalent to 621 Bcf/
yr of natural gas. MPL’s FTA exports are not at issue
here.
3 DOE will review MPL’s request for additional
volumes to its existing FTA export authorization, as
well as its request for an additional amount for use
PO 00000
Frm 00021
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
MPL states that this Application, if
granted, would increase its non-FTA
exports from the MPL Facility from a
total of 621 Bcf/yr to 912.22 Bcf/yr of
natural gas, the aggregate capacity of the
three trains.
MPL seeks the authorization on its
own behalf and as agent for other
entities that will hold title to the natural
gas or LNG at the point of export or reexport, respectively. MPL requests the
authorization for a term to commence
on the date of first export following the
commencement of commercial
operation of the MPL Facility, and to
extend through December 31, 2050.
Additional details can be found in
MPL’s Application, posted on the DOE
website at: www.energy.gov/sites/
default/files/2023-01/22-167-LNG_0.pdf.
DOE Evaluation
In reviewing the Application, DOE
will consider any issues required by law
or policy. DOE will consider domestic
need for the natural gas, as well as any
other issues determined to be
appropriate, including whether the
arrangement 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 study
entitled, Macroeconomic Outcomes of
Market Determined Levels of U.S. LNG
Exports (2018 LNG Export Study),4 and
DOE’s response to public comments
received on that Study.5
Additionally, DOE will consider the
following environmental documents:

Review Documents Concerning Exports
of Natural Gas From the United States,
