Today Annova LNG received its Draft Environmental Impact Statement (DEIS) prepared by the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) for the Annova LNG Brownsville Project (Project). The issuance aligns with the estimated schedule the agency outlined in August and propels the project through another significant milestone.
The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) resumed its Section 10/404 Department of Army permitting process for Annova LNG, in response to the project's timely data request submission. This resumption supports the timeline to receive federal approval by July 2019 as indicated in the August release of the FERC Notice of Schedule for the Annova LNG project.
Black & Veatch Corporation and Kiewit Energy Group Inc. announced today that they have made an equity investment in the Annova LNG export project in Brownsville, Texas.

Concurrently, Black & Veatch and Kiewit have been awarded the engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) contract for the Annova LNG 6.0 million tonnes per annum (MTPA) project on a joint basis.
