The Office of Fossil Energy (FE) of the Department of Energy (DOE) gives notice of receipt of an application (Application), filed on November 23, 2016, by Dominion Cove Point LNG, LP (DCP). The Application requests blanket authorization to export liquefied natural gas (LNG) in an amount up to the equivalent of 250 billion cubic feet (Bcf) of natural gas prior to the commencement of commercial operation of DCP's Liquefaction Project at its existing Cove Point LNG Terminal in Calvert County, Maryland. DCP requests authorization to export such ``Commissioning Volumes'' over a period of two years commencing on the date of the first short-term export, which is expected to occur during the fourth quarter of 2017 and not later than six months thereafter. The LNG would be exported from the Cove Point LNG Terminal to any country with the capacity to import LNG in ocean-going carriers and with which trade is not prohibited by U.S. law or policy, including both countries with which the United States has entered into a free trade agreement requiring national treatment for trade in natural gas (FTA countries) and all other countries (non-FTA countries). DCP requests this authorization on its own behalf and as agent for other entities who hold title to the natural gas at the time of export. The Application was filed under section 3 of the Natural Gas Act (NGA). Additional details can be found in DCP's Application, posted on the DOE/FE Web site at: https://energy.gov/fe/dominion-cove-point-lng-lp- 16-205-lng-blanket-authorization-export-lng-ftanfta. Protests, motions to intervene, notices of intervention, and written comments are invited.

[FE Docket No. 16-205-LNG]


Dominion Cove Point LNG, LP; Application for Blanket 
Authorization To Export Liquefied Natural Gas to Non-Free Trade 
Agreement Nations on a Short-Term Basis

AGENCY: Office of Fossil Energy, DOE.

ACTION: Notice of application.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Office of Fossil Energy (FE) of the Department of Energy 
(DOE) gives notice of receipt of an application (Application), filed on 
November 23, 2016, by Dominion Cove Point LNG, LP (DCP). The 
Application requests blanket authorization to export liquefied natural 
gas (LNG) in an amount up to the equivalent of 250 billion cubic feet 
(Bcf) of natural gas prior to the commencement of commercial operation 
of DCP's Liquefaction Project at its existing Cove Point LNG Terminal 
in Calvert County, Maryland. DCP requests authorization to export such 
``Commissioning Volumes'' over a period of two years commencing on the 
date of the first short-term export, which is expected to occur during 
the fourth quarter of 2017 and not later than six months thereafter. 
The LNG would be exported from the Cove Point LNG Terminal to any 
country with the capacity to import LNG in ocean-going carriers and 
with which trade is not prohibited by U.S. law or policy, including 
both countries with which the United States has entered into a free 
trade agreement requiring national treatment for trade in natural gas 
(FTA countries) and all other countries (non-FTA countries). DCP 
requests this authorization on its own behalf and as agent for other 
entities who hold title to the natural gas at the time of export. The 
Application was filed under section 3 of the Natural Gas Act (NGA). 
Additional details can be found in DCP's Application, posted on the 
DOE/FE Web site at: https://energy.gov/fe/dominion-cove-point-lng-lp-16-205-lng-blanket-authorization-export-lng-ftanfta. Protests, motions 
to intervene, notices of intervention, and written comments are 
invited.

DATES: Protests, motions to intervene or notices of intervention, as 
applicable, requests for additional procedures, and written comments 
are to be filed using procedures detailed in the Public Comment 
Procedures section no later than 4:30 p.m., Eastern time, May 12, 2017.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: DCP requests a short-term blanket 
authorization to export Commissioning Volumes--that is, the volumes of 
LNG produced prior to the start of full commercial operations of DCP's 
Liquefaction Project. DCP intends to source these Commissioning Volumes 
from domestically produced natural gas and/or from LNG previously 
imported by vessel at the Cove Point LNG

[[Page 17649]]

Terminal from foreign sources, and requests authorization allowing for 
both possibilities. DCP commits that the Commissioning Volumes to be 
exported under the requested authorization, when added to any volumes 
exported under DCP's long-term export authorizations, will not exceed 
250 Bcf in any annual (12 consecutive month) period, so that the 
quantity exported in any year shall not exceed the level previously 
authorized by DOE/FE.

DOE/FE Evaluation

    The portion of the Application seeking authority to export 
Commissioning Volumes to non-FTA countries will be reviewed pursuant to 
section 3(a) of the NGA, 15 U.S.C. 717b(a), and DOE will consider any 
issues required by law or policy. In reviewing this Application, DOE 
will consider domestic need for the natural gas, as well as any other 
issues determined to be appropriate, including whether the arrangement 
is consistent with DOE's policy of promoting competition in the 
marketplace by allowing commercial parties to freely negotiate their 
own trade arrangements. As part of this analysis, DOE will consider the 
following two studies examining the cumulative impacts of exporting 
domestically produced LNG:
     Effect of Increased Levels of Liquefied Natural Gas on 
U.S. Energy Markets, conducted by the U.S. Energy Information 
Administration upon DOE's request (2014 EIA LNG Export Study); \1\ and

documents:

Exports of Natural Gas From the United States, 79 FR 48132 (Aug. 15, 
2014); \3\ and

    Parties that may oppose this Application should address these 
issues and documents in their comments and/or protests, as well as 
other issues deemed relevant to the Application.
    The National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA), 42 U.S.C. 4321 et 
seq., requires DOE to give appropriate consideration to the 
environmental effects of its proposed decisions. DCP states that the 
proposed export of Commissioning Volumes will not require the 
construction of any new facilities, nor any modification of the 
facilities previously authorized by FERC. No final decision will be 
issued in this proceeding until DOE has met its environmental 
responsibilities.
    Interested persons will be provided 30 days from the date of 
publication of this Notice in which to submit comments, protests, 
motions to intervene, notices of intervention, or motions for 
additional procedures.

Application. All protests, comments, motions to intervene, or notices
