Ksi Lisims LNG Receives Environmental Assessment Process Order, Green Light to Submit Full Application

A proposed, Nisga’a Nation-owned, LNG project has been given the green light to apply for a full environmental assessment certificate.

It comes alongside a Process Order, issued for the Ksi Lisims LNG Project by the Environmental Assessment Office yesterday.

That order lays out how the assessment will be conducted, defines its scope, and outlines the responsibilities of each party.

Proponents will now begin conducting consultations and technical studies to fill their application, which they intend to submit later this year.

Proposed by the Nation and their partners Western LNG and Rockies LNG, the floating facility is planned for Pearse Island, west of Gingolx.

It has been designed to be the world’s largest net-zero LNG export facility, producing 12 million tonnes of LNG annually over its 40 year lifespan.
