WESTERMAN VERSUS ADMINISTRATION MIGRANT HOUSING PLANS: Republicans on the House Natural Resources Committee are pushing to stop construction of a temporary migrant housing facility on federally protected lands in New York, arguing that the government is ignoring NEPA processes and its own rules for land protection in attempting to stand up the facility. And they’re having an oversight hearing on the matter next Wednesday.
“However, there is not time to complete an EA before action must be taken to address imminent threats to human health and safety. Consistent with guidance from the Council on Environmental Quality … the NPS proposes to comply with the regulatory requirements for EA content, interagency coordination, and public involvement to the extent practicable,” the memorandum reads.
He also noted that he and other Republican lawmakers were denied access to the facility when they tried to visit yesterday. The proposed rule was met with scathing criticism from Western states, who argued in letters to the agency that it both exceeds BLM’s statutory authority and threatens substantial harm to states’ respective economies.
The spate of recent climate disasters “demands a whole of government response,” the lawmakers said in a letter to Biden. ARAMCO AND EXXON CEOS PUSH BACK ON IEA’S DEMAND FORECAST FOR FOSSIL FUELS: The heads of top U.S. and Saudi oil producers pushed back on the IEA’s projection that oil demand will peak in 2030, stressing the need for continued investments in the oil and gas sector to help bridge the transition to more renewable and clean energy sources.
"No matter where demand gets to, if we don't maintain some level of investment industry, you end up running shorter supply which leads to higher prices."
