II. Background and Purpose

    Under 33 CFR 127.007(a), an owner or operator planning to build a 
new facility handling liquefied natural gas (LNG), or an owner or 
operator planning new construction to expand or modify marine terminal 
operations in an existing facility handling LNG, where the 
construction, expansion, or modification would result in an increase in 
the size and/or frequency of LNG marine traffic on the waterway 
associated with the proposed facility or modification to an existing 
facility, must submit a Letter of Intent (LOI) to the Captain of the 
Port of the zone in which the facility is or will be located. Under 33 
CFR 127.007(e), an owner or operator planning such new construction or 
expansion of an existing facility must also file or update a Waterway 
Suitability Assessment (WSA) that addresses the proposed increase in 
LNG marine traffic in the associated waterway.
    Under 33 CFR 127.009, after receiving an LOI, the Captain of the 
Port issues a Letter of Recommendation (LOR) as to the suitability of 
the waterway for LNG marine traffic to the appropriate jurisdictional 
authorities. The LOR is based on a series of factors listed in 33 CFR 
127.009 that relate to the physical nature of the affected waterway and 
issues of safety and security associated with LNG marine traffic on the 
affected waterway.

III. Information Requested

    On January 29, 2018, Sabine Pass LNG, L.P. (SPLNG), located in 
Cameron Parish, LA, submitted an LOI and Preliminary WSA regarding the 
company's proposed plans to develop a new marine berth and expand the 
number of vessels calling on the facility each year from approximately 
400 to 580. The purpose of this notice is to solicit public comments on 
the proposed increase in LNG marine traffic on the Sabine-Neches 
Waterway. The Coast Guard believes that public input may be useful to 
the Captain of the Port Marine Safety Unit Port Arthur (COTP) with 
respect to validating the information provided in SPLNG's Preliminary 
WSA and development of the LOR. A brief summary of SPLNG's proposal is 
available in the docket where indicated under ADDRESSES.
    On January 24, 2011, the Coast Guard published Navigation and 
Vessel Inspection Circular (NVIC) 01-2011, titled ``Guidance Related to 
Waterfront Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) Facilities''. NVIC 01-2011 
provides guidance for owners and operators seeking approval to build 
and operate LNG facilities. The

[[Page 31764]]

Coast Guard will refer to NVIC 01-2011 for process information and 
guidance in evaluating SPLNG's WSA. NVIC 01-2011 is available in the 
docket where indicated under ADDRESSES and also on the Coast Guard's
