The Office of Fossil Energy gives notice of receipt of an application filed on May 13, 2014, by Venture Global LNG, LLC (VGP) requesting long-term, multi-contract authority to export (in addition to the volumes proposed in Docket 13-69-LNG) domestically produced LNG of up to five million (5,000,000) metric tons per annum (equivalent to  approximately 243.6 Bcf of natural gas per year) for a period of 25 years commencing on the earlier of the date of first export or seven years from the date the requested  authorization is granted by DOE/FE . Venture Global requests the issuance of separate orders authorizing these exports to any country which has, or in the future  develops, the capacity to import LNG via ocean-going carriers and with which the U.S. has, or in the future enters into, an FTA requiring the national treatment for trade in  natural gas or is otherwise deemed by the United States as being treated as an FTA nation, and to any country with the capacity to import LNG via ocean-going carriers  and with which the United States does not have such an FTA but with which trade is not prohibited by United States law or policy.

DOE will consider one or more of the following studies examining the cumulative impacts of exporting domestically produced LNG:

Additionally, DOE will consider the following environmental documents:
