Motion for stay pending court review denied.
The D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals denied petitioners’ joint motion for a stay pending review of FERC’s authorization of the Calcasieu Pass 2 liquefied natural gas (LNG) liquefaction plant and export terminal in southwestern Louisiana. FERC issued a final supplemental environmental impact statement for the project in May 2025 and subsequently issued an order implementing its original authorization of the project in 2024. The petitioners’ stay motion focused on harms from construction, not operation, of the project. The D.C. Circuit, in a one-page order, found that the petitioners did not satisfy the stringent requirements for a stay pending court review.
