GERALD R. FORD
OFFICE OF THE VICE PRESIDENT
WASHINGTON
January 28, 1975
MEMORANDUM TO:
DICK ALLISON
FROM:
ZANDY GABRIELS Zardy
NAVAL PETROLEUM RESERVES
RE:
This memorandum is prepared pursuant
to your conversation with Spoff on Tuesday
afternoon requesting a summary report on the
Naval Petroleum Reserves legislation, H.R. 49
and S. 2173.
The measures were reported to conference
in early October and the conferees have been
meeting since December. Prior to adjournment
it was anticipated that a compromise would be
quickly agreed to during the opening weeks of
this session. However, despite some agreement
on issues indicated below, there has been no
estimate when final action will be taken. Even
meetings at this time are difficult to schedule.
Presumably, problems at the staff level are
causing the delay.
According to the most recent draft by
the Senate Armed Services Committee, the following
issues have been resolved:
1) Departmental control of the Naval
Petroleum Reserves.
Dept. of Interior will assume control
of NPR 4 located in Alaska which will
be renamed the National Petroleum
Reserve. The Dept. of the Navy will
retain control of NPR 1,2,3.

2) Mandated production of oil from
NPR 1,2,3 at the maximum efficient
rate of production over a period of
years.
The following issues have yet to be
resolved:
3) Common carrier status of pipelines.
FEA wants pipelines carrying oil
produced from NPR to transport the
oil as if the pipeline was a common
carrier for purposes of the NPR oil
rather than requiring that any pipe-
line shipping NPR oil actually be
considered a common carrier for all
oil shipped. Industry objects to
the latter possibility.
4) Handling of the funds received from
the sale of NPR oil.
It is agreed that the funds will
be placed in a special account, however,
the prorating of the funds among FEA,
the Navy and the Interior has not
been agreed upon.
5) An FEA study of NPR 4.
The pending legislation repeals a
provision of the energy bill, the
ECOP Act, which mandated the FEA to
conduct a study of NPR 4. Interior
would be given the authority to conduct
this study, but would be allowed more
time to complete it.
