1 FERC Office of Energy Projects 1 Federal Energy Regulatory Commission EPAct 2005 Authorities & FY06 Status of LNG Facilities and Pipelines IRWA Federal Agency Update January 26, 2006

2 FERC Office of Energy Projects 2 Energy Policy Act of 2005 Section 313- grants significant new federal authority. –---the Rational Siting Process coordinating all Federal authorizationsLead agency for coordinating all Federal authorizations and for complying with NEPA.

3 FERC Office of Energy Projects 3 Pre-Filing Regulations effective November 17, 2005 Mandatory use of PRE-FILING for LNG applicants Exclusive siting authority Authorities Given to FERC LNG

4 FERC Office of Energy Projects 4 Pre-Filing Requirements for LNG Projects Meet with staff regarding proposed project Submit draft RFP for 3 rd Party EIS contract and draft PF request for staff review File PF request Complete at least 6 months of PF review

5 FERC Office of Energy Projects 5 Contents of PF Request Letter Anticipated schedule for filing of application and desired date for Commission approval Description of zoning and site availability Description of the project area including maps and plot plans List of federal and state permitting agencies agreeing to participate in PF

6 FERC Office of Energy Projects 6 Contents of PF Request Letter Dates for submission of required permit applications Description of work done to date (e.g., surveys, stakeholder contacts, engineering) List of interested persons and organizations contacted Proposals from 3 rd party contractors

7 FERC Office of Energy Projects 7 Contents of PF Request Letter Identification of environmental and engineering firms under contract Agreement to submit COMPLETE Environmental Report and application Public participation plan Certification that LOI and prelim. WSA have been submitted to USCG

8 FERC Office of Energy Projects 8 Timing Considerations for PF Review Director of OEP approves PF Request +7 daysApplicant identify locations for open houses, agency meetings +14 daysApplicant executes 3PC contract and informs all stakeholders of project +30 daysApplicant submits mailing list and draft RR 1

9 FERC Office of Energy Projects 9 Timing Considerations for PF Review End of Scoping +14 daysApplicant responds to issues +60 daysApplicant files drafts RRs 1-12 Prior to Filing Application -90 daysApplicant files draft RR13 -60 daysApplicant files revised draft RRs 1-12, if required With Application Applicant submits Follow-on WSA to USCG

10 FERC Office of Energy Projects 10 SCHEDULING FERC sets schedule for Federal auth. related to NGA projects –Ensure expeditious completion of proceedings –Each fed agency w/ an aspect shall cooperate with FERC and Agencies shall comply with the schedule Authorities Given to FERC LNG & Pipelines

11 FERC Office of Energy Projects 11 Authorities Given to FERC LNG & Pipelines (cont’d) CONSOLIDATED RECORD FERC maintains a consolidated record –Agencies must help create this record –Must use this record for appeals The intent of the record and schedule is to reduce redundancy and sequential processes

12 FERC Office of Energy Projects 12 Authorities Given to FERC LNG & Pipelines (cont’d) CONSOLIDATED RECORD (cont’d) Applicants may have to file with FERC copies of all information filed with agencies in support of Federal authorizations Agencies may have to file with FERC copies of all information serving as the basis for their decisions on Federal authorizations

13 FERC Office of Energy Projects 13 Authorities Given to FERC LNG & Pipelines (cont’d) CONSOLIDATED RECORD (cont’d) Record is for decisions & appeals of CZMA or judicial review of agency actions or failure to act For Federal authorizations other than the CZMA, jurisdiction is: –DC Circuit for failure to act, or –Circuit for project area for appeal [Bypasses agency appeal processes]

14 FERC Office of Energy Projects 14 FERC Coordination with States– LNG Only Governor appoints an agency to consult -ME,NY,NJ,DE,MD,MS,LA,TX,CA,OR- FERC must consult with this agency State agency may file a safety advisory report
