U.S. universities, industry and DOE

national laboratories.

The Solicitation will invite financial

assistance applications from universities

industry, non-profit and R&D

organizations and collaborations among

organizations, including those in which

DOE national laboratories are

participating, but not as the lead

organization. The Program

sole or lead performing organization.

The fields of research include: (1)

Generation IV Nuclear Energy Systems;

(2) Proliferation Resistant Reactors and

Fuel Technology; (3) Advanced Nuclear

Fuels and; (4) Fundamental Science.

Up to $6 million of Government

Fiscal Year 2001 Federal funds are

expected to be available for awards

under the Solicitation and the

complementary Program

individual awards is expected to be in

the range of $200,000 to $400,000 per

involving two or more organizations

may receive larger awards, where

merited. The period of performance for

individual projects is expected to be one

to three years.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Funds are

not presently available for these

financial assistance awards. Any

of the Solicitation shall be contingent

upon the availability of appropriated
