LNG Limited of Australia informed that the U.S. Federal Energy Regulatory Commission issued the final environmental impact statement for the Magnolia LNG project in Lake Charles, Louisiana.
FERC also issued a final EIS for the associated Kinder Morgan Louisiana Pipeline (KMLP) Lake Charles expansion project on November 13, the company confirmed in its statement on Monday.
In the FEIS, FERC concludes that construction and operation of the proposed projects would result in “ limited adverse environmental impacts, but these impacts would be reduced to less-than-significant levels ” with the implementation of MLNG’s and KMLP’s proposed mitigations and the additional measures recommended in the FEIS.
The next step in the FERC process is for the commissioners to act on MLNG’s and KMLP’s respective applications, LNG Limited added.
