Energy Policy Expected From Nixon Address
President Nixon plans to urge Congress to adopt an energy policy favoring higher oil imports through a bonus import system and tariffs. He may push offshore leasing for oil and gas, seek deregulation of natural gas pricing, and seek state delays on tougher air standards to ease coal demand. The message also calls for more federal funds to advance atomic breeder reactor research and coal to cleaner fuels.
