FERC Releases Update on Venture Global Calcasieu Pass LNG Project
FERC has released an update on its environmental review of Venture Global Calcasieu Pass’s (Venture Global) proposed 487.2 Bcf/year liquefaction facility and LNG export terminal on the Calcasieu Ship Channel in Cameron Parish, La. The next major step in the process will be FERC Staff’s issuance of comments on Venture Global’s draft environmental resource reports. The update states that Venture Global plans to file a formal application for the project with FERC near the end of summer 2015. FERC will then prepare a draft environmental impact statement which will be released for public comment. FERC’s update can be found here, and the complete docket for the Venture Global project can be found on eLibrary under Docket Number PF15-2.
