A BILL

Section 1 Natural Gas Act jurisdiction

Section 1 of the Natural Gas Act (15 U.S.C. 717) is amended by adding at the end the following new subsection:

“(e) A person not otherwise subject to this Act shall not become subject to this Act solely by reason of such person’s construction or operation of a facility not otherwise subject to this Act that liquefies, stores, processes, or delivers natural gas for vehicular natural gas or other end use purposes notwithstanding that natural gas may be reinjected from the facility into an interstate pipeline, provided that such reinjections are incidental to the facility’s provision of natural gas for vehicular or other end use purposes and are required by the operational, maintenance, or safety needs of the facility.”
