AMENDMENTS
1986 - Subsec. (a). Pub. L. 99-412 amended subsec. (a) generally.
Prior to amendment, subsec. (a) read as follows: "The Congress
finds that -
"(1) the United States faces an energy shortage arising from
increasing demand for energy, particularly for oil and natural
gas, and insufficient domestic supplies of oil and natural gas to
satisfy that demand;
"(2) unless effective measures are promptly taken by the
Federal Government and other users of energy to reduce the rate
of growth of demand for energy, the United States will become
increasingly dependent on the world oil market, increasingly
vulnerable to interruptions of foreign oil supplies, and unable
to provide the energy to meet future needs; and
"(3) all sectors of our Nation's economy must begin immediately
to significantly reduce the demand for nonrenewable energy
resources such as oil and natural gas by implementing and
maintaining effective conservation measures for the efficient use
of these and other energy sources."
