Egan Hub Storage, LLC received approval from the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) to develop and operate a new 8.0 billion cubic feet (Bcf) working gas capacity (10.5 Bcf total capacity) salt dome storage cavern (Cavern #3), a 16.52-mile, 24-inch diameter header, modifications to existing facilities (Texas Eastern M&R station and East M&R station), and associated appurtenant facilities. Egan Hub is located on the Jennings Salt Dome in west-central Acadia Parish, in Evangeline, Louisiana.
