# 42 U.S.C. § 8457 - Use of petroleum and natural gas in combustors
|
||
|
||
## Text
|
||
|
||
The Secretary shall conduct a detailed study of the uses of petroleum and natural gas as a primary energy source for combustors and installations not subject to the prohibitions of this chapter. In conducting such study, the Secretary shall—
|
||
|
||
(1) identify those categories of major fuel-burning installations in which the substitution of coal or other alternate fuels for petroleum and natural gas is economically and technically feasible, and
|
||
|
||
(2) determine the estimated savings of natural gas and petroleum expected from such substitution.
|
||
|
||
Within 1 year after the effective date of this chapter, the Secretary shall submit a detailed report on the results of such study to the Congress, together with any recommendations for legislation he may consider appropriate.
