FERC grilled over environmental justice guidelines

 

U.S. Sen. James Lankford and others on a Senate Committee spent part of Thursday grilling energy regulators over their recent approval of new guidelines to consider environmental justice and climate issues in reviewing new natural gas projects.

The three Democrats who control the five-member Federal Energy Regulatory Commission approved the new guidelines last month and spent time on Thursday answering pointed questions about what they did reported Reuters.
