G. Do I need to seek rehearing of a Commission order before filing an appeal? |
| A: |
In most cases, yes. The Natural Gas Act, the Natural Gas Policy Act, and the Federal Power Act all require that an application for rehearing be made to the Commission before a petition for review of a Commission order may be brought. See NGA § 19(a), 15 U.S.C.§ 717r(a)(1994); NGPA § 506(a)(2), 15 U.S.C. § 3416(a)(2)(1994); FPA § 313(a), 16 U.S.C. § 825l(a)(1994). The Interstate Commerce Act, applicable to the transportation of oil by pipeline, contains no such express statutory rehearing requirement. |
