21st Century SPR Act

This bill would require the Secretary of Energy, within 90 days of the law taking effect, to ask the National Petroleum Council to write a report on the Strategic Petroleum Reserve. The report would be due to the Secretary and Congress within one year of the request. It would analyze ways to update the Reserve's facilities and operations to respond to fuel supply shocks, such as adding storage sites in more locations, storing refined fuels, ending sales required by Congress, and expanding storage capacity. It would also include recommendations for federal agencies and Congress and a review of the Life Extension II project. The report would be made public.
