GPA Midstream and other trade groups representing pipelines and refineries sent a letter to congressional leaders urging them to end the shutdown at the U.S. Department of Homeland Security and restore normal operations at federal cybersecurity agencies.

GPA Midstream filed an amicus brief in American Gas Association v. Department of Energy urging the U.S. Supreme Court to review DOE rules that would effectively eliminate noncondensing natural gas furnaces and commercial water heaters. GPA Midstream argues DOE failed to show the rules are economically justified, relying on flawed analysis that understates consumer costs. The case potentially has far-reaching effects on fuel choice, heating costs, and long-term energy affordability.

GPA Midstream and a coalition of organizations urged the U.S. Senate to pass bipartisan, comprehensive permitting reform. The coalition letter points out that outdated and inefficient permitting processes are delaying critical infrastructure projects, driving up costs, and holding back investment in energy, transportation, broadband, and water systems. The coalition calls for a modernized, predictable permitting system to accelerate economic growth and deliver needed energy infrastructure.

GPA Midstream and a coalition of energy trade associations filed comments supporting EPA’s proposed revisions to its Clean Water Act Section 401 certification regulations. The coalition supports the proposal because it would restore clarity and appropriate limits to the Section 401 process, ensuring reviews focus on water quality impacts and preventing misuse that can delay or block major infrastructure projects.

In response to a letter from GPA Midstream, PHMSA has withdrawn its previously issued response to Paradox Pipeline’s request for a regulatory interpretation concerning Section 114 of the 2020 Protecting our Infrastructure of Pipelines and Enhancing Safety (PIPES) Act.

GPA Midstream and a coalition of 84 allied organizations submitted joint comments supporting the U.S. Bureau of Ocean Energy Management's proposed lease sale in planning areas throughout the Outer Continental Shelf.
