Notice
Summary
Florida Gas Transmission wants to build and upgrade natural gas facilities in two Louisiana parishes. The government is reviewing the environmental impact and will share a report by July 25, 2025, with a final decision expected by October 23, 2025. This means local communities and agencies will see changes soon, and approvals need to happen on time to keep things moving smoothly.
Analyzed Economic Effects
2 provisions identified: 2 benefits, 0 costs, 0 mixed.
Pipeline construction in two parishes
Florida Gas Transmission would build and modify natural gas compressor equipment and related piping in St. Landry Parish and East Baton Rouge Parish, Louisiana, including uprating one compressor turbine, re-wheeling three compressor turbines, adding one new turbine compressor unit, and about 700 feet of new 30-inch piping. The Project’s stated purpose is to provide up to 75,000 million British thermal units per day of additional firm transportation capacity.
Fixed environmental review timeline
FERC staff will issue an Environmental Assessment (EA) on July 25, 2025, with a 30-day public comment period, and other federal and state agencies must reach final decisions within 90 days of the EA issuance (federal authorization decision deadline: October 23, 2025). These dates set the official schedule for environmental review and permitting for the South Central Louisiana Project.
