DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY
Federal Energy Regulatory Commission
[Docket No. CP22-21-000; Docket No. CP22-22-000]
Venture Global CP2 LNG, LLC, Venture Global CP Express, LLC;
Notice of Revised Schedule for Environmental Review of the CP2 Lng and
CP Express Projects
This notice provides the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission
staff's revised schedule for the completion of the environmental impact
statement (EIS) for Venture Global CP2 LNG, LLC's (CP2 LNG) and Venture
Global CP Express, LLC's (CP Express) CP2 LNG and CP Express Projects.
The first notice of schedule, issued on February 9, 2022, identified
February 10, 2023 as the final EIS issuance date. However, a number of
responses to environmental and engineering data requests continue to
remain outstanding and/or are deficient.\1\ These outstanding responses
are necessary for staff to prepare a draft EIS for the projects. Based
upon CP2 LNG's and CP Express' commitment to provide complete responses
to the outstanding data requests by August 30, 2022, staff has revised
the schedule for issuance of the final EIS and anticipates issuing a
draft EIS in January 2023.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\1\ On July 6, 2022 the Commission issued a notice suspending
the environmental review schedule for these projects based upon CP2
LNG's and CP Express' failure to file complete and timely
information necessary for staff to prepare a draft EIS.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Schedule for Environmental Review
Issuance of the Notice of Availability of the final EIS--July 28, 2023
90-day Federal Authorization Decision Deadline \2\--October 26, 2023
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\2\ The Commission's deadline applies to the decisions of other
federal agencies, and state agencies acting under federally
delegated authority, that are responsible for federal
authorizations, permits, and other approvals necessary for proposed
projects under the Natural Gas Act. Per 18 CFR 157.22(a), the
Commission's deadline for other agency's decisions applies unless a
schedule is otherwise established by federal law.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
If a schedule change becomes necessary, an additional notice will
be provided so that the relevant agencies are kept informed of the
project's progress.
