Clearwater Port Liquefied Natural Gas Deepwater Port License Application; Preparation of Environmental Impact Statement/Environmental Impact Report
The Maritime Administration and the U.S. Coast Guard, in coordination with the California State Lands Commission (CSLC), announce their intent to prepare an environmental impact statement/ environmental impact report (EIS/EIR), in connection with this application for a proposed liquefied natural gas (LNG) deepwater port (DWP) that would be located in the Pacific Ocean approximately 10.5 miles offshore of Ventura County, California.
