The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission said Friday that it plans to issue a ruling on the proposed liquefied natural gas terminal project by May 14, 2009. A final environmental impact statement is scheduled to be released three months earlier, by Feb. 13, 2009. FERC’s final verdict is subject to scheduling changes, as has been the case with agency decisions on the project along the way.
The Oregon Land Use Board of Appeals has postponed its decision on a land use case involving the project.
The board was expected to issue a ruling Thursday on whether Jordan Cove Energy Partners’ application properly dealt with environmental and archeological concerns on Coos Bay’s North Spit. Instead, it delayed its decision to June 26.
