OSTI ID:7232504

The projected shortage of delivery of natural gas for the winter of 1975-76 and the failure of the Federal Power Commission (FPC) to enforce the gas-delivery requirements between gas producers and gas pipelines are discussed in these hearings. Certain court decisions are cited which strongly criticize their failure to determine the real facts concerning the gas shortage and to use the FPC's authority to enforce contractual regulations. About 40 witnesses presented testimony on different aspects of the problem on 5 separate days, and much additional material is included. (BLM)
