             CONVERSION OF URBAN WASTE TO ENERGZ,


Mr. Chairman and Members of the Subcommittee:

     I appreciate the opportunity to be here today to discuss

H.R. 6638 which provides for an accelerated program for the

conversion of urban waste to energy as a means of helping to

alleviate our Nation's energy supply, materials conservation,

and solid waste disposal problems.

     My testimony is based in part on our February 28, 1979,

report to the Congress which evaluated Federal efforts to

develop and introduce alternate fuels from municipal solid

waste 1/, and our ongoing work on the recovery of minerals

from industrial wastes, and the recycling targets and

procurement guidelines programs within DOE and EPA. Our

report describes the various waste-to-energy conversion

processes, the efforts of private and public agencies to



l/Conversion of Urban Waste to Energy: Developing and
  Introducing Alternate Fuels From Municipal Solid Waste,
  EMD-79-7, Feb. 28, 1979.
