The Case is Overwhelming A permanent price advantage for U.S. consumers Tens of thousands of short-term & long-term jobs Billions of $ for federal, state, and local coffers Bolsters the manufacturing renaissance Avoids the “boom and bust” cycle Assures the production of gas liquids for petrochemical industry Advances U.S. geopolitical interests
What Next? 2013 -- DOE approval 2014 -- Federal Energy Regulatory Commission approval 2014 -- Begin construction 2017 -- Commence operation
