construction of refineries by small and independent refiners

construction of refineries by small and independent refiners Sec. 123. (a) It is the intent of the Congress that, for the purpose of fostering construction of new refineries by small and independent refiners in the United States, the Administrator of the Federal Energy Administration shall take such action, within his authority under other law consistent with the attainment, to the maximum extent practicable, of the objectives under section 4(b)(1)(D) of the Emergency Petroleum Allocation Act of 1973, as the Administrator determines necessary to insure that rules, regulations, or orders issued by him do not impose unreasonable, unnecessary, or discriminatory barriers to entry for small refiners and independent refiners. (b) Not later than April 1, 1977, the Administrator shall report to the Congress with respect to actions taken to carry out the policies in subsection (a). (c) For the purposes of this section the terms “small refiner” and “independent refiner” have the same meaning as such terms have under the Emergency Petroleum Allocation Act of 1973.
