Richmond Jr. Commander, 13th Coast Guard District Room 3590, Federal Building 915 - 2nd Avenue Seattle, Washington 98174 Dear Admiral Richmond: As part of a nationwide review of energy conservation measures taken by Federal agencies, we have reviewed 13th District efforts to reduce energy use. Energy conservation has been a national concern since mid-1973 when a Federal energy conservation program was initiated. President Ford reaffirmed this commitment in October 1974 when he announced the fiscal year 1975 energy conservation goal of 15 percent and called for continued energy conservation effort at all Federal agencies. The purpose of our review at the 13th District was to determine the results achieved by your energy conservation program and to identify any practical opportunities for further reducing energy consumption. This letter summarizes the results of our review as discussed with Mr. Kaatz, your Energy Conservation Coordinator, and Captain Powell, Chief, Search and Rescue Branch. The Coast Guard's energy conservation program was implemented at the District level in June 1973. A number of actions have been taken by Headquarters or the District to reduce energy consumption. These actions included: --reducing lighting levels at District headquarters and field units; --requiring vehicles, cutters, boats, and aircraft to be operated at the most economical speeds consistent with mission; --eliminating or curtailing vehicle, cutter, boat, and aircraft use for low priority missions, such as public affairs and administrative purposes; --limiting use of gas turbines on cutters and reducing the scope of icebreaker mission. e 0 0/0 7
