§ 2076. Designation of energy as a strategic and critical material
For purposes of this Act [sections
2061 to
2170,
2171, and
2172 of this Appendix], “energy” shall be designated as a “strategic and critical material” after the date of the enactment of this section [June 30, 1980]: Provided, That no provision of this Act [sections
2061 to
2170,
2171, and
2172 of this Appendix] shall, by virtue of such designation [1] grant any new direct or indirect authority to the President for the mandatory allocation or pricing of any fuel or feedstock (including, but not limited to, crude oil, residual fuel oil, any refined petroleum product, natural gas, or coal) or electricity or any other form of energy.
[1] So in original. Probably should be followed by a comma.
