Recent oil shortages experienced in the U.S. will serve to ease environmental restrictions for energy use and resource development. Because of the energy shortage, President Jimmy Carter's Administration has urged domestic fuel production increases; the energy push may have an adverse impact on environmental causes. Environmentalists face the prospects of seeing a relaxation of pollution control laws to allow fuller use of coal resources. The federal government is faced with the task of balancing energy production and environmental concerns. (1 diagram, 1 photo)
