This review is a part of a nation-wide review which the U.S. General Accounting Office is conducting at selected field activities. Specifically, our objectives were to (1) determine what energy conservation measures have been implemented, (2) ascertain the effectiveness of the energy conservation program, and (3) identify potential areas for further energy reduction. Energy Conservation Program The President has 'directed all Federal agencies to reduce their energy consumption by 7 percent in fiscal year 1974 and by 15 percent in fiscal year 1975 under that consumed in fiscal year 1973. In June 1974, the Chief of Naval Operations directed that all Navy shore installations should meet the energy conservation goal for fiscal year 1975. The directive also specified that energy consumption for space heating be reduced by 25 percent relative to fiscal year 1973, except for Government quarters, which have a reduction goal of 15 percent. Our review disclosed that the Center has actively attempted to reduce the consumption of energy in its physical facilities, but had not established a program for the reduction of vehicular and aircraft fuels, and vehicle mileage. We did find, however, that the Center has encouraged the use of car pools by employees to conserve gasoline.
