Congressional Affairs facilitates the Federal Energy Regulatory
Commission's relationship with Congress to address issues within
FERC's jurisdiction, such as the regulation of the interstate
transmission of electricity, natural gas, and oil, proposals to
build liquefied natural gas (LNG) terminals and interstate natural
gas pipelines, as well as licensing hydropower projects. The Energy
Policy Act of 2005 gave FERC additional responsibilities as outlined
in FERC's top priorities
and updated Strategic
Plan web pages.
Congressional Affairs also works closely with members of Congress
and staff to provide Congressional Testimony, to give technical assistance when requested,
to answer inquiries and to offer briefings on Commission actions.
