β’ US Declares Energy Emergency as Cold Snap Hits Northeast (energynow.com) β A recent electrical incident at Energy Transferβs Marcus Hook terminal has limited propane truck loading hours and forced customers onto reduced allocations, just as a deep cold snap hits the Northeast. Federal and state officials have relaxed trucking rules to keep propane moving across Pennsylvania, Delaware, New Jersey, and New York, while analysts warn the tighter supply could mean higher winter heating costs.
