Office of Energy Projects 2 LNG – Two Points Natural gas is the economic/environmental fuel of choice. 96% of natural gas reserves are outside North America.

FERC Office of Energy Projects 3 How Much Natural Gas Is Out There? Source: EIA, Oil & Gas Journal Total World Gas Reserves as of 1/1/04: 6,078 Trillion Cubic Feet

FERC 4 US Natural Gas Balance

FERC Office of Energy Projects 5 LNG Review Process Mandatory Pre-filing Start of Pre-Filing Process Scoping Meeting / Site Visit Data Requests, Analysis & Agency Coordination Notice of Application Interventions & Protests Issue DEIS Public Meeting / Comments Issue FEIS Authorization / Denial Safety & Engineering Cryogenic Design & Safety Review Technical Conference Waterway Suitability Assessment Review Waterway Suitability Report USCG Letter of Recommendation (issued independently)

FERC Office of Energy Projects 6 Energy Policy Act of LNG Process coordination State and local considerations Pre-filing is mandatory Hackberry policy is now codified Cooperation with Dept. of Defense

FERC Office of Energy Projects 7 Energy Policy Act of LNG Process Coordination FERC is the exclusive siting authority and lead agency for processing FERC record is the one record upon which all appeals of Federal actions are based Judicial streamlining

FERC Office of Energy Projects 8 Governor shall appoint a state agency for consultation FERC must consult with this agency State may file a safety advisory report and FERC must review and respond State agency may conduct safety inspections FERC order must require an Emergency Response Plan which includes a cost- sharing plan Energy Policy Act of LNG State and Local Considerations

FERC Office of Energy Projects 9 Regulations issued on October 7 th Pre-filing is mandatory for all new LNG terminals and related facilities Mandatory pre-filing for expansions, if deemed appropriate Federal, state and local consideration/cooperation Energy Policy Act of LNG Pre-Filing

FERC Office of Energy Projects 10 FERC cannot deny an application on the basis that the LNG terminal will not be open access –Sunsets on January 1, 2015 Expansion of an existing LNG terminal will not result in subsidization of expansion capacity, degradation of service or undue discrimination to existing customers Energy Policy Act of LNG Hackberry Decision Codified

FERC Office of Energy Projects 11 MOU with Department of Defense Concurrence of Secretary of Defense Energy Policy Act of LNG Dept. of Defense
