[Docket No. CP16-116-000]
Texas LNG Brownsville LLC; Notice of Availability of the Final
Supplemental Environmental Impact Statement for the Proposed Texas LNG
Project
The staff of the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC or
Commission) has prepared a final supplemental environmental impact
statement (EIS) to address the August 6, 2024 Opinion issued by the
U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit (court)
regarding the Commission's environmental review of the Texas LNG
Project proposed by Texas LNG Brownsville LLC. <SUP>1 2</SUP> The court
remanded the Commission's April 21, 2023 Order on Remand that approved
the liquefied natural gas (LNG) terminal. The court found that FERC
failed to issue a supplemental EIS consistent with the National
Environmental Policy Act to discuss impacts on communities with
environmental justice concerns and address why the Commission did not
use data from a particular air quality monitor in the air analysis. As
part of the Commission's consideration of the proposed project on
remand, we \3\ prepared this final supplemental EIS to assess the
issues remanded by the court.

\1\ City of Port Isabel v. FERC, 111 F.4th 1198 (D.C. Cir.
2024). On March 18, 2025, the court partially granted rehearing and
remanded the case without vacatur.
\2\ For tracking purposes under the National Environmental
Policy Act, the unique identification number for documents relating
to this environmental review is FERC/SEIS-019-20-000-1726224938.
\3\ ``We,'' ``us,'' and ``our'' refer to the environmental and
engineering staff of the FERC's Office of Energy Projects.
