Re: Carib Energy (USA) LLC, FE Docket No. 21-99_- LNG Application for Blanket Authorization to Export Previously Imported Liquefied Natural Gas

Dear Ms. Sweeney:

Pursuant to Section 3 of the Natural Gas Act and Part 590 of the regulations of the Department of Energy (“DOE”) Carib Energy (USA) LLC (“Carib Energy”) submits its Application for Blanket Authorization to Export Previously Imported Liquefied Natural Gas.

Carib Energy is submitting two versions of its Application: (1) a Confidential Non-Public Version which contains as Appendix C Crowley LNG’s deed to the Crowley Facility site; and (2) a Public Version. Carib Energy respectfully submits that Appendix C in the Confidential Non-Public Version of the Application contains highly sensitive commercial information eligible for exemption from disclosure pursuant to Section 1004.10(b)(4) of the DOE regulations. Disclosure of this information is likely to cause substantial harm to the competitive position of Carib Energy.

Accordingly, Carib Energy is providing via Federal Express a hard copy “original” of its Confidential Non-Public Application in a sealed envelope marked “Contains Confidential Information – Do Not Release.” Carib Energy is submitting a Public Version of its Application via e-mail to fergas@hq.doe.gov.

Carib Energy reserves its rights under 590.1004.11(c) of the DOE regulations to receive notice before any disclosure of any of the confidential information, and to be allowed an opportunity to submit its views with respect to any disclosure.

Pursuant to Section 3 of the Natural Gas Act ("NGA") 1 and Part 590 of the Department of

DOE/Office of Fossil Energy ("DOE/FE") issue an order granting blanket authorization for Carib

Energy to export Liquefied Natural Gas ("LNG") that has been previously imported into the U.S.

from foreign sources. More specifically, Carib Energy requests authorization to export previously

Pefiuelas, Puerto Rico ("Crowley Facility"). Carib proposes to re-export the LNG by use of ocean­

going carriers or approved IMO? /TV AC-ASME LNG containers transported on ocean-going

container vessels, to any free trade agreement ("FTA") country or Non-FTA country within

Central America, South America or the Caribbean, which has, or in the future develops, the

capacity to import LNG delivered via ocean-going carriers and also via ocean-going container

vessels carrying approved IMO? /TV AC-ASME LNG containers, provided that trade with that

country is not prohibited by United States law or policy. The requested authorization would run

for a two-year period, commencing on the earlier of (i) the date of first re-export of LNG by Carib

Energy, or (ii) five years from the date on which DOE/FE issues an order granting the requested

1 15 U.S.C. § 717b (a) and (c) (2018).
