Delfin LNG LLC; Notice of Application

    Take notice that on May 8, 2015 Delfin LNG LLC (Delfin LNG), 1100 
Louisians Street, Houston, Texas 77002, filed in Docket No. CP15-490-
000, an application pursuant to section 7(c) of the Commission's 
Regulations under the Natural Gas Act and Parts 157 of the Federal 
Energy Regulatory Commission's (Commission) regulations requesting 
authorization to (1) reactivate approximately 1.1 miles of existing 42-
inch pipeline formerly owned by U-T Offshore System (UTOS), which runs 
from Transcontinental Gas Pipeline Company Station No. 44 (Transco 
Station 44) to the mean highwater mark along the Cameron Parish Coast; 
(2) install 74,000 horsepower of new compression; (3) construct 0.25 
miles of 42-inch pipeline to connect the former UTOS line to the new 
meter station; and (4) construct 0.6 miles of twin 30-inch pipelines 
between Transco Station 44 and the new compressor station in Cameron 
Parrish, Louisiana that comprise the onshore portion of Delfin LNG's 
proposed deepwater port (DWP), an offshore liquefied natural gas 
facility located off the coast of Louisiana in the Gulf of Mexico, all 
as more fully set forth in the application which is on file with the 
Commission and open to public inspection. Additionally, Delfin LNG 
requests a blanket construction certificate under Part 17, Subpart F of 
the Commission's regulations. This filing may be viewed on the web at 
http://www.ferc.gov using the ``eLibrary'' link. Enter the docket 
number excluding the last three digits in the docket number field to 
access the document. For assistance, please contact FERC at 
FERCOnlineSupport@ferc.gov or call toll-free, (886) 208-3676 or TYY, 
(202) 502-8659.
    Any questions regarding this Application should be directed to 
Daniel P. Werner, Delfin LNG LLC, 1100 Louisiana Street, Suite 3550, 
Houston, Texas 77002; phone: 713-714-2278, or J. Patrick Nevins, Hogan 
Lovells US LLP, 555 Thirteenth Street NW., Washington, DC 20004; phone: 
202-637-6441.
    Delfin LNG's onshore facilities will connect with the DWP 
facilities that are subject to jurisdiction of the Maritime Authority 
(MARAD) and the United States Coast Guard (USCG). Additionally, as part 
of Delfin LNG's DWP, Delfin LNG proposes to lease a segment of pipeline 
from High Island Offshore System, LLC (HIOS) that extends from the term 
inus of the UTOS pipeline offshore. Delfin LNG states in its 
application that HIOS will submit a separate application with the 
Commission seeking authorization to abandon by lease its facilities to 
Delfin LNG.
    Because the review of the DWP proposal is the jurisdiction of 
MARAD/USCG, the Commission acknowledges Delfin LNG's application in 
Docket No. CP15-490-000 on May 8, 2015. However, the Commission will 
not begin processing Delfin LNG's application until such time that 
MARAD/USCG accepts Delfin LNG's DWP application, and HIOS submits 
abandonment application with the Commission.
    Pursuant to section 157.9 of the Commission's rules, 18 CFR 157.9, 
within 90 days of this Notice the Commission staff will either: 
Complete its environmental assessment (EA) and place it into the 
Commission's public record (eLibrary) for this proceeding; or issue a 
Notice of Schedule for Environmental Review. If a Notice of Schedule 
for Environmental Review is issued, it will indicate, among other 
milestones, the anticipated date for the Commission staff's issuance of 
the final environmental impact statement (FEIS) or EA for this 
proposal. The filing of the EA in the Commission's public record for 
this proceeding or the issuance of a Notice of Schedule for 
Environmental Review will serve to notify federal and state agencies of 
the timing for the completion of all necessary reviews, and the 
subsequent need to complete all federal authorizations within 90 days 
of the date of issuance of the Commission staff's FEIS or EA.
    There are two ways to become involved in the Commission's review of 
this project. First, any person wishing to obtain legal status by 
becoming a party to the proceedings for this project should, on or 
before the comment date stated below, file with the Federal Energy 
Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street NE., Washington, DC 20426, a 
motion to intervene in accordance with the requirements of the 
Commission's Rules of Practice and Procedure (18 CFR 385.214 or 
385.211) and the Regulations under the NGA (18 CFR 157.10). A person 
obtaining party status will be placed on the service list maintained by 
the Secretary of the Commission and will receive copies of all 
documents filed by the applicant and by all other parties. A party must 
submit 7 copies of filings made with the Commission and must mail a 
copy to the applicant and to every other party in the proceeding. Only 
parties to the proceeding can ask for court review of Commission orders 
in the proceeding.
    However, a person does not have to intervene in order to have 
comments considered. The second way to participate is by filing with 
the Secretary of the Commission, as soon as possible, an original and 
two copies of

[[Page 30227]]

comments in support of or in opposition to this project. The Commission 
will consider these comments in determining the appropriate action to 
be taken, but the filing of a comment alone will not serve to make the 
filer a party to the proceeding. The Commission's rules require that 
persons filing comments in opposition to the project provide copies of 
their protests only to the party or parties directly involved in the 
protest.
    Persons who wish to comment only on the environmental review of 
this project should submit an original and two copies of their comments 
to the Secretary of the Commission. Environmental commenter's will be 
placed on the Commission's environmental mailing list, will receive 
copies of the environmental documents, and will be notified of meetings 
associated with he Commission's environmental review process. 
Environmental commenter's will not be required to serve copies of filed 
documents on all other parties. However, the non-party commentary, will 
not receive copies of all documents filed by other parties or issued by 
the Commission (except for the mailing of environmental documents 
issued by the Commission) and ill not have the right to seek court 
review of the Commission's final order.
    The Commission strongly encourages electronic filings of comments, 
protests and interventions in lieu of paper using the ``eFiling'' link 
at http://www.ferc.gov. Persons unable to file electronically should 
submit an original and 5 copies of the protest or intervention to the 
Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street NE., Washington, 
DC 20426. See, 18 CFR 385.2001(a) (1) (iii) and the instructions on the 
Commission's Web site under the ``e-Filing'' link.
