Corpus Christi LNG Terminal and Pipeline Project, Nueces and San Patricio Counties, Texas
The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) is preparing, with DOE as a cooperating agency, an EIS to analyze the potential environmental impacts of a proposal to construct and operate a liquefied natural gas export and import terminal on the north shore of Corpus Christi Bay in Nueces and San Patricio Counties, Texas; a marine berth connecting the terminal to the adjacent La Quinta Channel; and an approximately 23-mile-long natural gas transmission pipeline and associated facilities. In June 2012, FERC issued a notice of intent to prepare an EA; in October 2012, FERC announced that it would instead prepare an EIS.
