A bill to amend the Natural Gas Policy Act of 1978 to provide for continuation of price controls beyond 1985, to eliminate the monthly indexing of wellhead natural gas prices, to allow increases in such prices prior to the expiration of natural gas price controls only to the extent justified on the basis of increases in the cost of producing natural gas, and for other purposes.
