The Department of Energy gave final approval for liquefied natural gas exports from a proposed project in Cameron Parish, Louisiana. This represents energy policy advancement.
Routine DOE approval of LNG export facility. A-score: Minimal capture concern (1/5) as energy policy decisions involve industry interests, but this is standard regulatory process. Single-state scope reduces modifier to 0.7. Final A=0.98. B-score: Low novelty/media interest in technical energy approval. Final B=1.1. Both scores well below 25 threshold. No constitutional mechanism engaged. Classic administrative noise - routine regulatory approval with no democratic/constitutional implications.
Monitor for patterns of regulatory capture in energy sector approvals, but this individual decision requires no constitutional concern. Standard administrative process functioning normally.
