SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.

This Act may be cited as the ''Natural Gas Strategy Act''.

SEC. 2. PURPOSE AND GOALS.

It is the purpose of this Act to facilitate the achievement of the
following Congressional goals:
(1) Conducting a study relating to natural gas
infrastructure, including natural gas pipelines and natural gas
storage infrastructure, and liquefied natural gas
infrastructure in the United States, which shall include an
examination of roles, authorities, and methods of assessing
risks and benefits employed by United States Government
agencies that regulate natural gas infrastructure sitings,
taking into account considerations that are beyond the
regulatory scope of the current siting agencies and an
examination of the extent that reviews of proposed natural gas
infrastructure projects by United States Government agencies
are conducted in a complementary and effectively coordinated
manner.
(2) Identifying factors that are in the public interest
that natural gas infrastructure developers may not take into
account in proposing specific projects, and that may not be
adequately assessed by United States Government agencies
reviewing natural gas infrastructure development proposals due
to a lack of technical expertise or oversight authority,
including--
(A) regional environmental impacts;
(B) relationship of proposed natural gas
infrastructure developments to United States policies
to address climate change;
(C) relationship of proposed natural gas
infrastructure developments with other national
infrastructure development priorities, especially in
the electric power sector; and
(D) relationship of proposed natural gas
infrastructure developments with national safety and
security priorities.
(3) Examining--
(A) Federal, State, and local expenditures for
water-side and land-based security for natural gas
infrastructure protection, including the extent of such
expenditures relative to the protection of other
critical infrastructure (such as chemical facilities
and chemical tankers); and
(B) the ability of existing and traditional
security missions of agencies involved, including the
United States Coast Guard and State and local law
enforcement agencies, to ensure adequate security and
safety of liquefied natural gas operations.
(4) Understanding--
(A) the linkages among natural gas supplies, carbon
dioxide emissions, electricity supply, and electricity
reliability, including the extent that United States
carbon dioxide policies will influence the existing and
anticipated demand for natural gas; and
(B) the national and regional requirements for
natural gas supply infrastructure in light of other
Federal policies related to carbon dioxide control,
electricity reliability, and development of domestic
natural gas resources.
(5) Identifying criteria for the selection of appropriate
natural gas infrastructure facility locations that will meet
national energy policy goals, ensure adequate natural gas
supplies, can be adequately secured given existing constraints
on water-side and land-based security measures, and are
environmentally sound.
