FERC Releases Draft Environmental Impact Statement for Lake Charles LNG Export Project

FERC has released a Draft Environmental Impact Statement (DEIS) for the proposed Lake Charles liquefaction and LNG export terminal project proposed by Trunkline Gas Company and affiliates at the existing LNG import terminal at Lake Charles, La.  The DEIS concludes that approval of the proposed project would have some adverse environmental impacts, but most of these impacts would be reduced to less-than-significant levels with the implementation of proposed mitigation and additional measures recommended in the DEIS.  Comments on the DIES are due June 1, 2015.  FERC’s notice can be found here, and the DEIS can be found on eLibrary by searching Docket No. CP14-119.
