Key Points

  • Congress would require the Energy Department to do a long-term review of the Northeast home heating oil backup supply.
  • Within 180 days of the law taking effect, the Energy Department would have to send Congress a report with findings and recommendations.
  • The report must lay out the reserve’s near- and long-term role in U.S. energy and economic security, and whether current rules are strong enough.
  • It must recommend the best size, locations, and types of heating oil to store, plus how to improve storage and delivery so fuel can reach people in a crunch.
  • It must also estimate what resources are needed to keep the reserve working well over the long run.
