The bureaucrats at the Pennsylvania Dept. of Environmental Protection (DEP) are rubbing their hands together, eagerly anticipating millions of dollars to roll through the door and into the agency’s pockets following a recent PA Supreme Court ruling on strippers (see PA Supreme Court Rules Strippers Not Exempt from Impact Fee).

We feel like a cad. Just yesterday we gently chided Federal Energy Regulatory Commissioner Kevin McIntyre that maybe he should consider stepping down if his health prevents him from casting important pipeline votes (see We Still have a Problem at FERC – Potential Deadlock in 2019).
