Lawmakers seek exemption for well head gas from FPC rules
Sen. John G. Tower with Sen. Difford Hansen and Rep. George Bush urged a bill to exempt well head natural gas from Federal Power Commission regulation while preserving other contract powers. They warned of a looming energy crisis with shortages of gas oil and coal and urged boosting domestic gas exploration. Bush warned oil demand was rising and tied to gas needs, as utilities seek low sulphur fuel oil to meet pollution laws.
