Abstract

The article discusses New Jersey Governor Phil Murphy's declaration of a state of emergency due to a potential propane shortage for heating, following a service disruption at Energy Transfer's Marcus Hook Terminal in Pennsylvania. Approximately 186,000 residents in New Jersey depend on propane for heating, and the emergency order allows for waiving hours-of-service regulations for trucking heating fuels. The disruption, caused by an electrical fault on November 19, has led to reduced propane allocations for customers, although officials emphasize that there is no actual shortage of propane fuel. The situation is being monitored, with ongoing discussions for regulatory waivers to address the supply chain issues. [Extracted from the article]
