REPORT BY THE1


Comptroller General


OF THE UNITED STATES





How To Speed Development

Of Geothermal Energy

On Federal Lands



Eight years after enactment of the Geother-
mal Steam Act, there is no commercial pro-
duction of geothermal energy    under a
Federal lease. Leasing delays are one of sev-
eral important reasons for this slow pace.

Since Federal lands are critical to the devel-
opment of geothermal energy, GAO is
making several recommendations, including
changes in the act. Even without these
changes, there are administrative improve-
ments the Departments of the Interior and
Agriculture can make.

This report was requested by the Chairman,
Senate Committee on Energy and Natural
Resources.
