OEP drafts plan to ration fuels in national energy crisis
The Office of Emergency Preparedness released a draft plan circulating among top officials that would require a national emergency to trigger rationing of fuels from gasoline to home heating. It outlines prioritizing essential trucking rail and mass transit and using substitutes like coal where possible. The plan resembles World War II rationing and follows Senate findings of falling heating oil production. Darrell M. Trent says heating and diesel oil could be boosted by hundreds of millions of barrels daily. The electric utility sector plans a cooperative research push with $75.1 million in expenditures.
