Annova LNG Common Infrastructure, LLC, Annova LNG Brownsville A, 
LLC, Annova LNG Brownsville B, LLC, Annova LNG Brownsville C, LLC; 
Notice of Application

    Take notice that on July 13, 2016, Annova LNG Common 
Infrastructure, LLC, Annova LNG Brownsville A, LLC, Annova LNG 
Brownsville B, LLC, and Annova LNG Brownsville C, LLC (collectively 
Annova LNG), 100 Constellation Way, Suite 500C, Baltimore, MD 21202, 
filed an application, in Docket No. CP16-480-000, pursuant to section 
3(a) of the Natural Gas Act (NGA) and Part 153 of the Commission's 
Regulations, requesting authorization to site, construct, modify, and 
operate a natural gas liquefaction and liquefied natural gas export 
facility, located on the Brownsville Ship Channel in Cameron County, 
Texas. 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, contact FERC at [email protected] or call toll-
free (886) 208-3676 or TYY (202) 502-8659.
    Any questions regarding this application should be directed to 
Christopher D. Young, Exelon Corporation, 100 Constellation Way, Suite 
500C, Baltimore, MD 21202, by phone at (410) 470-3500, or by email at 
[email protected], or to William Harris, 
Communications Senior Manager, South/West Region, Exelon Generation, by 
phone at (512) 542-7812, or by email at [email protected].
    Specifically, Annova LNG proposes to construct a LNG liquefaction 
and export terminal on the Port of Brownsville ship channel. The 
terminal will consist of six liquefaction trains with a total capacity 
of 0.9 Bcf per day, two LNG tanks capable of storing 6.8 Bcf of LNG, 
gas pretreatment facilities, boil-off gas handling system, flare 
system, marine transfer facilities, and all necessary ancillary and 
support facilities. Natural gas will be supplied by a third party-owned 
and operated intrastate pipeline.
    On March 27, 2015, Commission staff granted Annova LNG's request to 
use the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) Pre-Filing Process and 
assigned Docket No. PF15-15-000 to staff activities involving the 
proposed facilities. Now, as of the filing of this application on July 
13, 2016, the NEPA Pre-Filing Process for this project has ended. From 
this time forward, this proceeding will be conducted in Docket No. 
CP16-480-000, as noted in the caption of this Notice.
    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 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 5 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 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 commenters will be 
placed on the Commission's environmental mailing list, will receive 
copies of the environmental documents, and will be notified of meetings

[[Page 51880]]

associated with the Commission's environmental review process. 
Environmental commenters will not be required to serve copies of filed 
documents on all other parties. However, the non-party commenters 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 will not have the right to seek court 
review of the Commission's final order.
    Motions to intervene, protests and comments may be filed 
electronically via the Internet in lieu of paper; see, 18 CFR 
385.2001(a)(1)(iii) and the instructions on the Commission's Web site 
under the ``e-Filing'' link. The Commission strongly encourages 
electronic filings.
    Comment Date: 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time on August 17, 2016.

    Dated: July 27, 2016.
 Kimberly D. Bose,
 Secretary.
