Sierra Club Files Protest on Cheniere Marketing DOE Export Application

Posted on Jan 2, 2013 in Environmental, Federal Regulation, LNG Exports | Comments Off

Sierra Club filed a protest at the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) opposing Cheniere Marketing, LLC’s application to export LNG from a proposed terminal near Corpus Christi, Texas to countries without a Free Trade Agreement with the United States. Sierra Club opposes the application arguing that DOE has not considered the potential environmental harm from increased hydraulic fracturing and the increase in domestic gas prices that may result from increased gas exports. The protest can be found on DOE’s website Docket No. 12-97-LNG.
