It seems to me that some time ago I remember reading that the Federal Government had taken absolute control of the site locations for LNG terminals and that State and locals would have no point of refusal if the Feds said it was going in any particular place. Does anyone else remember seeing that and does anyone know what the current status is of siting authority?
That's basically correct, but it still up to local governments and/or energy companies to build the facilities - which they can not be forced to do.
