Freeport LNG Train 4 Project; Brazoria County, Texas

DOE adopted, as DOE/EA-2105, an EA prepared by the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) to assess the potential environmental impacts of the proposed Freeport LNG Train 4 Project, an expansion of the existing Quintana Island Terminal near Freeport, Texas. Based on the EA, DOE issued a finding of no significant impact.

DOE was a cooperating agency in preparing the EA. DOE, Office of Fossil Energy, has an obligation under Section 3 of the Natural Gas Act to authorize the import and export of natural gas, including LNG, unless it finds that the import or export is not consistent with the public interest.
