The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) is preparing a new environmental report for the Commonwealth LNG Project in Louisiana. This comes after a court said FERC didn't fully consider the project's nitrogen dioxide emissions. The project will include a terminal for liquefying and exporting natural gas, as well as a short pipeline. FERC plans to release a draft of the new report in February 2025 and a final order by July 2025.
Simple Explanation
The government is going to look more closely at how a plan to build a big gas factory in Louisiana might affect the air we breathe. They need to make sure the factory won't make too much stinky gas called nitrogen dioxide, and they plan to finish their review next year.
