6.—(1) The construction of an LNG facility is within regulation 3(1)(c) only if (when constructed)—
(a)the storage capacity of the facility is expected to be at least 43 million standard cubic metres, or
(b)the maximum flow rate of the facility is expected to be at least 4.5 million standard cubic metres per day.
(2) The alteration of an LNG facility is within regulation 3(1)(c) only if the expected effect of the alteration is to increase —
(a)the storage capacity of the facility by at least 43 million standard cubic metres, or
(b)the maximum flow rate of the facility by at least 4.5 million standard cubic metres per day.
(3) In this regulation—
“maximum flow rate” (“cyfradd llif uchaf”) means the maximum rate at which gas is able to flow out of the facility, on the assumption that—
the facility is filled to maximum capacity, and
the rate is measured after regasification of the liquid natural gas and any other processing required on the recovery of the gas from storage;
“LNG facility” (“cyfleuster LNG”) means a facility for—
the reception of liquid natural gas from outside Wales,
the storage of that gas, and
the regasification of that gas;
“storage capacity” (“cynhwysedd storio”) means the capacity of the facility for storage of liquid natural gas measured as if the gas were stored in regasified form.
