A federal appeals court has dismissed attempts by environmental groups to delay the Rio Grande LNG export terminal and the associated Rio Bravo natural gas pipeline, both still under development along the Gulf Coast.
Despite legal challenges to FERC authorizations, based on environmental and social impact concerns, the court has not granted a stay, allowing project progress.
Meanwhile, the Port Arthur LNG project gained a chance for review by the Texas Supreme Court over an emission limits dispute.
Both LNG projects, key for US energy export expansion, are moving forward with development phases and exploring further expansions.
Legal battles highlight ongoing tensions between energy development, environmental protection, and community impacts.
