FEA e
WASHINGTON (A') - The Fed-
eral E n e r g y Administration
(FEA) reported yesterday that
the nation in general should
have enough fuel to make up
for expected natural gas short-
ages this winter, provided the
weather and the, economy are
normal.
But the agency said North
Carolina may run into fuel short-
ages even in a normal winter,
and unusually cold weather
could result in shortages of pro-
pane, another heat energy
source, in that state and eight
o t h e r s: Georgia, Maryland,
South Carolina, Tennessee, Vir-
ginia, Kentucky, West Virginia
and Arizona.
IN SCATTERED local areas,
said an FEA draft report, short-
ages could occur that might
force temporary job layoffs if
alternate fuels are unavailable
or cannot be used.
"In North Carolina and Iowa,"
the report said, "some brick-
yards indicate that unavailabil-
ity of gaseous fuel supplies, or a
higher price . of propane or
emergency gas,mcould cause
them to lay off some employes."
No other specific layoff situa-
tions were forecast in the re-
port.
THE BIGGEST economic im-
pact of natural gas shortages
this winter, the report said,
would be the cost of alternate
fuels more expensive than na-
tural gas.
It said this might add some
$550 million to $660 million to
the nation's winter fuel bill.

Meanwhile a federal appeals enough of the heavy fuel oil used The federal appeals court
