October 18, 2022 – (ATLANTA) Public Service Commissioner Jason Shaw has sent a letter to Georgia’s Congressional Delegation outlining recent policy shifts in natural gas pipeline policy by the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC).
Natural gas availability has helped Georgia recruit industry to the state and has helped Georgia become the Best State for Business over nine straight years. FERC’s recent actions have caused several major pipeline expansion projects to stall. Without Congressional intervention, availability of cheap and abundant natural gas could suffer, Commissioner Shaw said.
