McCullough Deputy Director, Energy and Minerals Division Before the Subcommittee on Mines and Mining House Committee on Interior and Insular Affairs on Management of Federal Energy and Mineral Resources We appreciate this opportunity to present our views on the management of Federal energy and mineral resources, as you consider H.R. 3364. The long-range purpose of the work of the Energy and Minerals Division of GAO in this area is to help the Department of the Interior move from ineffective mineral administration to active and purposeful minerals management. In this regard, we have recently issued three reports, two of which were performed at your request, which identify major problems with Interior's minerals management decisionmaking process. The first of these, issued on June 5, 1981, demonstrated the need for balanced decisionmakina and called for minerals management program planning for federally controlled min- eral resources. The subsequent two reports discussed specific problems regarding minerals management at Interior and further confirmed the findings of our June 5th report. My testimony today will focus on the findings of these and related reports and a discussion of the steps we believe the Department should take to improve management of Federal energy and mineral resources. 116696
