FERC Eyes Restoration of Quorum, Resumption of Rulings
FERC Eyes Restoration of Quorum, Resumption of Rulings
SUGAR LAND--June 12, 2017--Written by John Egan for Industrial Info Resources (Sugar Land, Texas)--A quorum-less Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) (Washington, D.C.) may soon be a thing of the past. The federal agency, which regulates energy in interstate commerce, has been unable to issue rulings on proposed interstate natural gas pipelines, liquefied natural gas (LNG) export terminals, hydroelectric licenses and interstate electric transmission projects since early February because three of its five seats are vacant. Without a quorum of three commissioners, the agency cannot vote on proposed interstate energy projects.
