Jan 22, 2016 IPAA, CLNG, and NGSA Joint Letter to Senate Committee on Energy and Natural Resources Leaders Supporting S. 2012, The Energy Policy Modernization Act
On behalf of the Center for Liquefied Natural Gas, the Natural Gas Supply Association and the Independent Petroleum Association of America, we write to applaud the Senate Energy and Natural Resources Committee for the hard work you have done moving S. 2012 – The Energy Policy Modernization Act (EPMA) – through Committee in July of 2015 and bringing it to Senate floor. Specifically, we are encouraged to see the inclusion of Section 1306 (Vehicle Research and Development), Section 1308 (Commercial and Transit Vehicles), Section 2201 (Action on applications to export liquefied natural gas), Section 2202 (Public disclosure of liquefied natural gas export destinations) and Section 3102 (Study on the economic impacts of liquefied natural gas exports) in the bipartisan legislative proposal. We strongly believe the passage of this legislation will help to accelerate the creation of a thriving domestic liquefied natural gas (LNG) industry.
