The board issued a statement calling for public consultation on the proposal that would last 30 days after the issuance of the notice.
The peak capacity of the terminal would be up to 10 mtpa, and the facility would comprise of a jetty based LNG unloading facility, LNG transfer pipelines and two 190,000 cbm LNG storage tanks.
