The Office of Fossil Energy gives notice of receipt of an application filed July 16, 2012, by LNG Development Company (LNGDC), seeking a long-term multi-contract authorization to export domestically produced liquefied natural gas (LNG) up to the equivalent of 456.25 billion cubic feet of natural gas per year to Non Free Trade Agreement countries. Authorization is for a 25-year period commencing on the earlier of the date of first export or eight years from the date the authorization is issued. LNGDC proposes to export LNG from its proposed LNG terminal site in Warrenton, Clatsop County, Oregon to any country that has, or in the future will have, the capacity to import LNG via ocean-going carrier, with which the United States does not have a Free Trade Agreement requiring national treatment for trade in natural gas. F.R. Notice published 9/7/12; 77 FR 55197, comments were due 11/6/12. Order 3100 Vacated 5/31/16 by Order 3100-A
