The Natural Gas Policy Act of 1978 (NGPA) expanded price regulations to all gas. Its goals were to solve gas supply inadequacies, protect consumers, and prepare for price deregulation to market-clearing levels in 1985. Now, in the third year of the act, unresolved problems impede producer supply efforts and the 1985 goal appears unattainable. Regulatory and legislative changes are recommended.
