Climate Change - Climate change has generated a tremendous amount of discussion in Congress during the 4th quarter. AGA continues to promote the role of natural gas in the climate discussion by educating Members of Congress and their staff on its benefits and ability to reduce carbon emissions over time. Clean Water Act - Guidance on Section 401 - The streamlining of the 401 certification process in accordance with Executive Order 13868 allows for the protection of Americans water quality and greater investment in national infrastructure projects. Clearing the way for the development of these infrastructure projects will allow for more natural gas pipelines and greater access to natural gas for Americans. S. 1602, a bill to amend the United States Energy Storage Competitiveness Act of 2007 to establish a research, development, and demonstration program for grid-scale energy storage systems, and for other purposes. (Sen. Collins, R-ME). AGA is working to include gas as a storage option. S. 2300, a bill to amend the Energy Independence and Security Act of 2007 to establish a program to incentivize innovation and to enhance the industrial competitiveness of the United States by developing technologies to reduce emissions of nonpower industrial sectors, and for other purposes. (Sen. Whitehouse, D-RI). AGA is working to support because of the positive language for natural gas. Also trying to get a Utility or representative on the Board.
