Oct 3

Filed By: Save Passamaquoddy Bay Canada Inc.
Filed Date: 10/3/2013
Accession No: 20131003-5124
Description: J. E. Venart PEng submits Design Spill Results on Behalf of Save Passamaquoddy Bay Canada Inc. under CP07-52 et. al.
Information: FILE LIST

Summary: Since the pier and entire trestle length would contain both LNG liquid andLNG vapor on a full-time basis in order to keep the piping cold and operable for unloading, Dr. Venart indicates a study of catastrophic rupture of LNG vapor piping also must be required of Downeast LNG — that a study of LNG liquid piping, alone, is insufficient.

Oct 4

Filed By: Save Passamaquoddy Bay
Filed Date: 10/4/2013
Accession No: 20131004-5095
Description: Save Passamaquoddy Bay comment re Ignition source and LNG port safety, under CP07-52 et al.
Information: FILE LIST

Summary: Downeast LNG cannot prevent the public from building a cooking fire or bonfire in the terminal's intertidal zone due to Maine's prescriptive use law; the public has the unrestricted right to be present at any time, even beneath the pier-to-storage tank trestle. Thus, Downeast LNG has an insoluble ignition source safety hazard, making the Mill Cove site unsuitable.

Oct 8

Filed By: Individual No Affiliation [Ronald S. Rosenfeld]
Filed Date: 10/7/2013
Accession No: 20131007-5168
Description: Riverbed Toxins Supplemental Information / Request of Ronald S. Rosenfeld under CP07-52, et al.
Information: FILE LIST

Summary: Dr. Rosenfeld indicates that FERC has ignored the potential impacts of known toxic contamination in the waterway sediment at the proposed Downeast LNG 4,000-foot pier location that would be reintroduced into the water column by pier construction. He indicates that a not-yet-performed toxin impact study seems to be required for Downeast LNG permitting.

Filed By: Save Passamaquoddy Bay
Filed Date: 10/15/2013
Accession No: 20131015-5373
Description: Save Passamaquoddy Bay comment under CP07-52, et al., regarding 33 CFR §127 — smoking, fires, security, and access.
Information: FILE LIST

Summary: Save Passamaquoddy Bay cites numerous specific regulatory requirements (under 33 CFR §127) for LNG terminals that Downeast LNG inherently cannot satisfy. Thus, FERC must either dismiss Downeast LNG from permitting, or must deny Downeast LNG's permit applications.
