Gas shortage warning cited by House subcommittee
A House subcommittee sharply criticized Energy Department officials for failing to justify gasoline decontrol and for withholding data on a possible 1980 shortage. The panel cited a forecast of up to 400,000 barrels per day, calling it a potential national disaster and noting past embargo shortages. It faulted DOE leadership and environmental review processes, including Bardin and Liverman, for neglect and inadequate analysis.
