FERC Staff has released the draft environmental impact statement (EIS) for Tellurian’s proposed Driftwood LNG export terminal and interconnected pipeline in Evangeline, Acadia, Jefferson Davis, and Calcasieu Parishes, La. (the Project). The Project would produce up to 26 million tonnes per annum of LNG for export. The draft EIS concludes that approval of the Project would result in adverse impacts on the environment, and with the exception of the visual impact on the nearby Driftwood Community which the draft EIS concludes would be significant, the environmental impacts would be reduced to acceptable levels with the implementation of mitigation measures.
