                                 Statement of
H                              Elmer B. Staats
                     Comptroller General of the United States
                                 before the
                     Senate Committee on Government Operations
H:                               onr. 2872
                       A Bill to ExtEend the Federal Energy
                           Administration Act of 1974



'.             MY statement today first discusses three discrete areas
          which are of interest to this Committee in its consideration

          of S. 2872. These areas relate to (1) possible organizational

.1        changes to the Federal Energy Administration (PEA) which
          specifically address FEA's energy policy and regulatory

          roles within the context of improving the Federal Govern-

          ment's approach to energy problems, (2) the energy data

          issue, with emphasis on the need for credibility and
 1        objectivity in Federal energy data efforts, and

          (3) mandatory reporting requirements in the area of

I         national energy conservation efforts.

4              My remarks will be concluded with an overview of GAO's

          efforts with respect to FEA's compliance and enforcement work

          and a brief discussion of some of our planned and recently

          completed efforts in other FEA responsibility areas.
