LNG railroad cars
In January, three leftist judges who sit on the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia (DC Circuit), one appointed by Joementia, one by Lord Obama, and a third by George H.W. Bush (Bush the 1st), threw out a rule the U.S. Department of Transportation had adopted during President Trump’s first term which allowed liquefied natural gas (LNG) to be transported by train (see DC Circuit Dems Overturn LNG-by-Rail Reg from Trump’s 1st Term). The law-abiding Trump administration recently published changes to its LNG rules to comply with the court's order. However, Big Green is VERY concerned that the Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration (PHMSA) has (1) carved out a loophole, and (2) is looking to reintroduce a full-blown LNG by rail regulation that this time would pass muster in the courts.
