The party-line feud between FERC commissioners over whether to consider GHG emissions in reviews of natural gas infrastructure continued last year.

The Senate Energy and Natural Resources Committee voted to advance James Danly as a FERC commissioner and Dan Brouillette as secretary of energy.

FERC's James Danly received little scrutiny at his confirmation hearing, even as Dems complained about President Trump neglecting to pair his nomination.

President Trump’s plan to fill the Republican seat on FERC while leaving a Democratic seat vacant isn’t playing well with Dems and environmental groups.

President Trump announced he will nominate FERC General Counsel James Danly to fill the Republican vacancy left by the death of Kevin McIntyre.

FERC said that a proposed revision to the Federal Power Act that would increase the right to appeal rate changes may have only limited effectiveness.
