-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Office of Fossil Energy (FE) of the Department of Energy 
(DOE) announces the availability of the Addendum to Environmental 
Review Documents Concerning Exports of Natural Gas From the United 
States (Addendum).

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: John Anderson, U.S. Department of 
Energy (FE-34), Office of Natural Gas Regulatory Activities, Office of 
Fossil Energy, Forrestal Building, Room 3E-042, 1000 Independence 
Avenue SW., Washington, DC 20585; Edward LeDuc, U.S. Department of 
Energy (GC-51), Office of the Assistant General Counsel for 
Environment, Forrestal Building, 1000 Independence Avenue SW., 
Washington, DC 20585.

ADDRESSES: The Addendum and other relevant documents are available for 
download at http://www.energy.gov/fe/services/natural-gas-regulation, 
and for inspection and copying in the Division of Natural Gas 
Regulatory Activities docket room, Room 3E-042, 1000 Independence 
Avenue SW., Washington, DC 20585. The docket room is open between the 
hours of 8:00 a.m. and 4:30 p.m., Monday through Friday, except Federal 
holidays.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The purpose of this Addendum is to provide 
additional information to the public regarding the potential 
environmental impacts of unconventional natural gas exploration and 
production activities. DOE has received many comments in related 
proceedings expressing concerns about the potential impacts from 
increased development of unconventional natural gas resources in the 
United States, particularly production that involves hydraulic 
fracturing. While not required by the National Environmental Policy Act 
(NEPA), DOE has prepared this Addendum in an effort to be responsive to 
the public and provide the best information available.
    On June 4, 2014, DOE published a Federal Register notice (79 FR 
32258) announcing the availability of the draft Addendum for public 
review and comment. The comment period closed on July 21, 2014. DOE 
received 18 comment submittals, comprised of a total of 40,754 
individual comments. DOE considered all the comments and prepared the 
final Addendum. In an effort to assist readers DOE used bold text and 
vertical lines in the margin to indicate where the draft Addendum has 
been revised or supplemented. A summary of the public comments and 
DOE's responses is included in the final Addendum.

    Issued in Washington, DC, on August 11, 2014.
Christopher A. Smith,
Principal Deputy Assistant Secretary, Office of Fossil Energy.
