Yesterday FERC issued an order denying requests for a stay and for rehearing filed by the State of Oregon and the Confederated Tribes of the Umatilla Indian Reservation (CTUIR). The State of Oregon requested a stay pending the decision by the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit on Oregon’s appeal of the Commission’s January 2009 rehearing order affirming its prior approval of the Bradwood Landing LNG import terminal. CTUIR filed a request for rehearing of the January 2009 order asserting that their motion to intervene in the proceedings was improperly denied. FERC’s order is available in the eLibrary under Docket No. CP06-365.
