摘要

This paper is supplemental to the Department of Energy's February 28, 1983, study entitled Analysis of Natural Gas Consumer Regulatory Reform Legislation. This supplemental analysis was undertaken to show the energy and price effects of natural gas reserve additions attributable to deregulating the price of old gas. this paper includes a comparison of the energy and price effects of the Natural Gas Policy Act (NGPA) and the Administration's natural gas bill (the Natural Gas Consumer Regulatory Reform Amendments of 1983, S 615), as well as an analysis of two other recent legislative proposals on natural gas: H.R. 2154, introduced by Representative Gephart, and S. 689, introduced by Senator Heinz.
