US DOI approves permits for Alaska LNG project

You are here: Home / Industry Feed / US DOI approves permits for Alaska LNG project

July 29, 2020 by realisma

The decision comes two months after the Federal Energy Regulatory Committee (FERC) gave the green light to the Alaska Gasline Development Corporation for the long-awaited 800-mile-long pipeline project that will liquefy and export natural gas produced on Alaska’s North Slope.

In a statement, DOI said it will adopt the FERC environmental impact statement, establish the environmental protections for wetlands, wildlife, recreation access and other resources that will govern access for a LNG pipeline; a major step in the permit process for the project.

The project includes a gas treatment plant at Prudhoe Bay, a 42’ diameter pipeline and a liquefaction facility and export terminal in Nikiski, Alaska.

Approximately 230 miles of the proposed 807-mile pipeline is across Federal lands, DOI said. These lands are mostly managed by the BLM, and most of the affected acreage is in the Dalton Highway/Trans-Alaska Pipeline corridor, which is managed primarily as a utility and transportation corridor.

The BLM and NPS each plan to issue a right-of-way permit to the Alaska Gasline Development Corporation in the near future, DOI said.

In June, the US authorised the bulk transportation of LNG by rail. The rule – issued by the US Department of Transportation (USDOT) and the Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration (PHMSA), in consultation with the Federal Railroad Administration (FRA) – allows the use of cryogenic railcars to ship LNG from production plants to destinations across the US from late July.
