*** The NPC study, Enhancing Emergency Preparedness for Natural Disasters, was prepared in response to a request from U.S. Energy Secretary Ernest Moniz for advice on natural gas and oil infrastructure resilience, the importance of which was underscored by Hurricane Sandy and other recent natural disasters. The purpose of the NPC is solely to advise, inform, and make recommendations to the Secretary of Energy on any matter requested by the Secretary relating to oil and natural gas or the oil and gas industries.
