NGSA Comments on FERC NEPA Ruling

(Washington, D.C.) – The Natural Gas Supply Association (NGSA) released the following statement after the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) voted unanimously to revise its regulations on the implementation of the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) and issued a staff manual outlining the revised procedures.

Dena Wiggins, NGSA President and CEO, said:

“NGSA appreciates FERC’s leadership in modifying its approach to the implementation of NEPA. These efforts to make the permitting process more efficient and transparent will simultaneously ensure its applications are legally durable, in accordance with this Administration’s Executive Orders and the Supreme Court’s decision in Seven County Infrastructure Coalition v. Eagle County.

These updates, combined with the new Staff Guidance Manual, will provide additional certainty needed for the U.S. energy industry, including natural gas, to prosper.”
