US Fish and Wildlife Service Requests Comments on Authorization to Take Marine Mammals for Jordan Cove LNG Project

Summary

The National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) is seeking public comments on a proposal to issue an incidental harassment authorization for the Jordan Cove Energy Project, which includes the construction of a liquefied natural gas (LNG) terminal and ancillary projects in Coos Bay, Oregon. The authorization would allow the project to incidentally take marine mammals during the construction process, and a possible one-year renewal is also being considered.
