The Honorable Richard L. Ottinger, Chairman
Subcommittee on Energy Conservation and Power
Committee on Energy and Commerce
House of Representatives

Dear Mr. Chairman:


Subject:


115906


Options for Establishing an Energy
Conservation Consolidated Grant
Program (EMD-81-115)


     In response to your June 15, 1981, request, we are furnishing
you in the enclosure to this letter, our consideration of options
for establishing an energy conservation consolidated grant program.
As you requested, these options were considered in the context
of provisions for (i) measures of accountability for program
effectiveness while still giving flexibility to State and local
governments, (2) formulas for fund distribution, and (3) either
matching or maintenance of effort requirements. We have also
included our views on legislative changes to provide more flexi-
bility to certain existing State conservation grant programs
should they be continued as categorical grant programs.

     We trust that this information will be useful to the
Subcommittee in its deliberations.

     As arranged with your office, unless you publicly announce
its contents earlier, we plan no further distribution of this
report until 14 days from its issue date. At that time we will
send copies to the chairmen of energy-related congressional
committees and make copies available to others upon request.
                                 Sincerely yours,




                                 J. Dexter Peach
