Pipeline Safety: Liquefied Natural Gas Facility User Fee Rate Increase
Document Number: 2014-15599
Type: Notice
Date: 2014-07-03
Agency: Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration, Department of Transportation
This notice is to advise all liquefied natural gas facility (LNG) operators subject to PHMSA user fee billing of a change in the LNG user fee rates to align these rates with the actual allocation of PHMSA resources to LNG program costs. Specifically, the LNG user fee rates will increase to 5 percent of the total gas program costs. This percentage represents the approximate ratio between the allocation of resources to LNG facilities and the total allocation of resources to all gas facilities. To reduce the financial impact on LNG operators, PHMSA will implement this increase incrementally over a three-year period.
