Texas SB2116 amends natural gas facility regulations to establish seasonal critical designations and related reporting requirements.

Texas SB2116 amends the Natural Resources Code to establish a process for designating certain natural gas facilities and entities as critical customers or critical gas suppliers during energy emergencies. The Texas Railroad Commission, in collaboration with the Public Utility Commission of Texas, must adopt rules defining criteria for these designations. Facilities can apply for seasonal critical status, and the commission must provide lists of such facilities to the Public Utility Commission and an independent organization for the ERCOT power region.
