River pilots at center of debate at Louisiana Capitol


BATON ROUGE The petrochemical industry has long battled with the river pilots who help steer ships up and down the Mississippi River, mostly over the large fees the pilots charge industrial firms for their services.
Most of the skirmishing has played out in obscure regulatory meetings, with occasional faceoffs in court. Now, for the first time in years, the battle will move to the Louisiana Legislature.
House Bill 650 pushed by the chemical and energy industries and sponsored by Rep. Thomas Pressly, R- Shreveport, would make sweeping changes to the regulatory boards and rules for pilots. It would add industry members to their oversight panel and require the notoriously nepotistic groups to make an annual report of pilots, including a list of how many are related to other pilots or public officials.

NEW ORLEANS A new effort to measure the levels of benzene, a cancer-causing air pollutant, along the perimeters of U.S. refineries found that five of the 13 facilities with the highest levels are in Louisiana.
What s more, the refinery with the worst emissions was Delek USA s Krotz Springs refinery, 45 minutes west of Baton Rouge along the Atchafalaya River, according to the report by the Environmental Integrity Project, a national environmental nonprofit.
There, fenceline monitors measured an average net concentration of 31.1 micrograms per cubic meter of benzene. That s more than triple the level allowed before the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency steps in. ....

Emails show how industry groups mobilized against Biden’s energy order
Wednesday, April 28, 2021
The Biden administration paused new leases on Jan. 27 and launched a major review of the federal oil and gas leasing program. Interior Department officials have said the program currently is “not serving the American public well.”

LMOGA also provided the Louisiana official with information about how restricting oil and gas development would hurt the state’s economy, and it helped ghostwrite a letter that Louisiana Gov. John Bel Edwards sent to Biden arguing, among other things, that confronting climate effects depends on continued offshore fossil fuel development. ....
