§ 10-101. Legislative intent and purpose. The legislature hereby finds and declares: that adequate supplies of fuel are essential to the health, welfare and safety of the people of the state of New York; that any severe disruption in fuel supplied for use within the state would cause grave hardship and pose a threat to the health and economic well-being of the people of the state; that the federal government has enacted into law the Emergency Petroleum Allocation Act of 1973, as amended by the Energy Policy and Conservation Act of 1975, pursuant to which the state of New York has established a fuel set-aside program; and that temporary and concurrent state authority for a fuel set-aside program should be in place as the federal government terminates, suspends or fails to implement all or part of the federal program during the vacation or heating seasons.
