The Challenge
A liquefaction facility in Louisiana required environmental and regulatory consulting services in order to add liquefied natural gas exporting capabilities.
The Solution
TBS performed biological and environmental surveys at the project site in order to collect the data needed for the Environmental Impact Statement and Federal Energy Regulatory Commission filing, as well as local, state, and federal regulatory permit applications. TBS provided the client and other consultants with background information of the local environment and assisted with answering any questions related to local issues or concerns. TBS also identified potential marsh creation sites to offset the wetland impacts caused by the project, and as a result, over 250 acres of brackish marsh will be created for this project. TBS also completed topographic surveys of the proposed beneficial use of dredged material area and hydrographic surveys of the marine berth.
