FERC Commissioner Questioned on Pacific Northwest LNG Proposals During Senate Confirmation
Platts LNG Daily reports that FERC Commissioner Jon Wellinghoff was questioned by U.S. Sen. Ron Wyden (D-Ore.) regarding the number of LNG regasification projects proposed for the Pacific Northwest. Commissioner Wellinghoff answered that the market ought to dictate which projects are pursued, but he noted that there is no reason FERC should not consider multiple impacts of several projects in one region.
