New York (Platt's)--22Sep2000 Vice President Al Gore Friday reiterated his call for the Clinton Administration to release crude from the US' Strategic Petroleum Reserve, but detailed the request by suggesting "six or seven" initial draws "over the next month or so." "Get that extra supply into the pipelines and into the marketplace," Gore said at a campaign stop. Gore on Thursday called for a rare SPR release to lower heating oil costs ahead of the winter. Gore, the Democratic candidate for president, also reiterated his pledge to offer tax credits to distributors who build their heating oil inventories, to establish a permanent heating oil reserve in the northeast, and seek $400-mil in additional funding for the low income home heating assistance program. "I think it's important to act," Gore said.
