TX 77002, filed an application in the above referenced docket, seeking 
authorization pursuant to Section 3(a) of the Natural Gas Act (NGA), 
and Parts 153 and 380 of the Commission's regulations, to site, 
construct and operate its Corpus Christi Liquefaction Midscale Trains 8 
& 9 Project, an expansion of the Corpus Christi liquefied natural gas 
terminal (CCL Terminal), located at an existing brownfield site in San 
Patricio and Nueces Counties, Texas along the La Quinta Ship Channel.
    Specifically, the proposed expansion will include (i) two midscale 
liquefaction trains (Trains 8 & 9) and supporting infrastructure to be 
interconnected and operated, on an integrated basis, with the existing 
CCL Terminal LNG \1\ storage tanks, control buildings, marine 
facilities, and other ancillary facilities, (ii) an increase in the 
authorized loading rate of LNG carriers visiting the CCL Terminal and 
(iii) the addition of certain refrigerant, end flash and boil-off gas 
facilities designed to manage integrated operations once the Project is 
placed into service. The proposed Trains 8 & 9 together would be 
capable of liquefying up to approximately 170 Billion cubic feet per 
year (Bcf/y) \2\ of domestically produced natural gas for export, all 
as more fully set forth in the request which is on file with the 
Commission and open to public inspection.

receive notification when the environmental documents (EA or EIS) are 
issued for this project and will be notified of meetings associated 
with the Commission's environmental review process.
    The Commission considers all comments received about the project in 
determining the appropriate action to be taken. However, 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. 
For instructions on how to intervene, see below.
