              SUBCOMMITTEE ON ENERGY REGULATION

      SENATE COMMITTEE ON ENERGY AND NATURAL RESOURCES


Mr. Chairman and Members of the Subcommittee:

     I appreciate the opportunity to be here today to discuss

our review of the limplementation of t ve Federal coal conversion

program9under the authority of Lthe Energy Supply and Environmental

Coordination Actiof 1974 (ESECA)(and the Powerplant and Industrial

Fuel Use Act of 1978 (FUA). These lawsfwere enacted to increase

coal use and decrease the use of oil and natural gas in large

utility and industrial boilers.

     Over the past several years, we have reported on both coal

conversion programs and proposed coal conversion legislation.

Our ongoing work in this area was requested by the former

Chairman and now Ranking .Minority Member of the Senate

Committee on Energy and Natural Resources. This work is now

nearing completion and we expect to issue a report in the near

future.

                              1                               i   N
