SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In 1993,

the Department of Defense, Housing

Facility (DODHF), Novato, California,

was designated for closure pursuant to

the Defense Base Closure and

Realignment Act of 1990, as amended.

Pursuant to this designation, on

December 19, 1994, the majority of the

land and facilities at this installation

were declared surplus to the federal

government and available for use by (a)

non-federal public agencies pursuant to

various statutes which authorize

conveyance of property for public

projects, and (b) homeless provider

all physical locations on DODHF, with

the Navy reserving 181 Capehart

Housing Units, 29 Hillside Housing

Units and 25 Knolls Housing Units for

federal agencies (Coast Guard and

dated October 1995. For clarification

purposes, the following described

property is determined surplus: 181

Capehart Family Housing units; 29

Hillside Family Housing Units.

Solicitation for Financial Assistance

Applications; Clean Cities Program

AGENCY: Golden Field Office,

Department of Energy.

ACTION: Notice of Solicitation for

Financial Assistance Applications

Number DE–PS36–98GO10295.

SUMMARY: Through this solicitation,

DOE is supporting private and/or public

sector efforts to improve the

organizational and business practices of

local Clean Cities coalitions organized

to achieve the Energy Policy Act of 1992

(EPAct) objectives for accelerating the

use of alternative fuels.

To carry the EPAct initiative forward,

DOE’s Clean Cities program has

encouraged the formation of public and

private sector coalitions in major

metropolitan areas throughout the U.S.

for the purposes of working together

cooperatively to expand rapidly both

production and utilization of AFVs and

development of the necessary refueling

infrastructure to support such vehicle

use.

The objective of this scope of work is

to incorporate a collection of

information, communication, planning

and training tools in order to best

support and assist ongoing local Clean

Cities coalition efforts to be effective

organizations in building new markets

for alternative fuels and alternative fuel

vehicles. The services provided by this

cooperative agreement award will assist

local Clean Cities in achieving the

objectives they established through

Memoranda of Understanding with local

partners in each community and DOE.

DATES: The solicitation will be issued on

or about April 17, 1998.

ADDRESSES: To obtain a copy of the

Solicitation once it is issued, submit a

written request to the U.S. Department

of Energy, Golden Field Office, 1617

Cole Boulevard, Golden, CO, 80401,

Attention: Mr. John Golovach, Contract

Specialist. For convenience, requests for

the Solicitation may be faxed to Mr.

Golovach at (303) 275–4753. The

Solicitation can also be accessed via the

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: EPAct was

enacted to improve energy security and

urban air quality. The Clean Cities

program was initiated by DOE for the

purposes of fulfilling voluntary

commitment provisions, Section 505 of

EPAct, in order to accelerate the public

and private sector use of alternative fuel

vehicles (AFVs). The Clean Cities

program is a growing national network

of local coalitions that are dependent

upon an integrated information and

training system to remain effective. The

scope of the Clean Cities Program will

require expertise in the following

exemplary areas of support: (a)

Alternative fuels and alternative fuel

vehicles; (b) Alternative fuels and air

quality legislation and regulations; (c)

Knowledge of key members of industry;

(d) Intergovernmental organizations; (e)

Training and curricula development and

materials; (f) Marketing, advertising, and

public outreach; (g) Organizational

planning; and (h) Meetings and

workshop facilitation. Through this

solicitation, the Department of Energy

seeks to support local Clean Cities

partnerships in the following three

general areas of interest: (1) Training

and Outreach to Local Clean Cities; (2)

Public Outreach; and (3) Alternative

Fuel Market Development.
