What happened

This notice, signed by Donald Trump, requests comments by September 11, 2026, and details public scoping sessions on August 25 and 26, 2026, in Louisiana and Texas.
Why it matters
Public comments will help FERC staff identify important environmental issues for the environmental document, which will inform their decision on whether the project is in the public interest. Landowners could face eminent domain proceedings if they do not reach easement agreements with the company, although FERC does not oversee these court matters.
