Green River Energy Bill

The Green River Energy Bill was passed in by the US Congress, in order to contain the economic fallout from the terrorist attacks on Saudi air fields that same year, that sent the world into an energy crisis. The Bill opened up oil shale deposits in Utah, Colorado, and Wyoming to development. The expected social and environmental fallout also prompted the enactment of new emergency powers for FEMA and the NSA, in preparation for the possibility of civil unrest in the wake of the energy crisis.The official Deus Ex timeline, year 2015
