              LFEDERAL ENERGY IMPACT ASSISTANCE

 Mr. Chairman and Members of the Committee:

      We welcome the opportunity to contribute to your

 deliberations on S. 1699, the Energy Impact Assistance Act

 of 1979, and Amendment No. 395 to S. 1308, the Inland Energy

 Impact Assistance Act of 1979.

      We have reviewed and testified on proposed socioeconomic

 impact assistance legislation since issuance of our July 1977

 report on Rocky Mountain Energy Resource Development: Status,

 Potential, and Socioeconomic Issues (EMD-77-23).

      That report dealt with socioeconomic impacts resulting

 from energy development in the Rocky Mountain area, while the

 legislation you are considering today would provide for Federal

(assistance to mitigate energy impacts in all inland areas of

this Nation affected by energy development.) However, we be-

lieve the problems and the observations presented in that

report have relevance to the most recent proposals for consi-

deration by this Committee.                          i    1llll,



                                                       110623
