BILLING CODE 6450–01–P

DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY

Chicago Operations Office; Office of

Industrial Technologies (OIT); Notice

of Solicitation for Financial Assistance

Applications for Sensor and Control

Technologies for Industrial

Manufacturing Applications

AGENCY: Department of Energy.

ACTION: Notice of solicitation

availability.

SUMMARY: The Department of Energy

(DOE) announces its interest in

receiving applications for federal

assistance to assist U.S. manufacturing

industries with the research and

development of advanced sensor and

control technologies which: (1) Meet the

high priority needs identified in the six

Industries of the Future (IOF)

technology roadmaps, one each for

aluminum, chemical, forest products,

glass, metalcasting, and steel; (2) have

wide applicability across the IOF

industries; and (3) improve energy

efficiency and productivity as well as

reduce the impact of the U.S.

manufacturing industries on the

environment through a reduction in the

generation of wastes and pollutants. The

financial assistance applications should

clearly describe how the above

mentioned research and development

objectives will be achieved and must

provide both budgetary and time

estimates for the period commencing

with initial research and development

(R & D) continuing through

commercialization of technologies.

DATES: The complete solicitation

document will be available on or about

August 17, 1998, on the Internet by

accessing the DOE Chicago Operations

Office Acquisition and Assistance

Group Home Page at http://

www.ch.doe.gov/business/ACQ.htm

under the heading ‘‘Current

Solicitations’’, Solicitation No. DE–

SC02–99CH10944. Applications are due

on or about October 1, 1998. Awards are

anticipated by December 1, 1998.

ADDRESSES: Completed applications

referencing Solicitation No. DE–SC02–

99CH10944 must be submitted to: U.S.

Department of Energy, Chicago

Operations Office, Attn: Denise Clarke,

Bldg. 201, Room 3D–04, 9800 South

Cass Avenue, Argonne, IL 60439–4899.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: DOE’s

Office of Industrial Technology (OIT)

supports industry efforts to increase

energy efficiency, reduce waste, and

increase productivity. OIT’s goal is to

accelerate research, development,

demonstration and commercialization of

energy efficient, renewable and

pollution prevention technologies

benefitting industry, the environment,

and U.S. energy security.

As a result of this solicitation, DOE

anticipates providing a total of $1

million dollars in FY 99 for the award

of up to four cooperative agreements

ranging from one to three years in

duration. DOE anticipates funding

projects at the same or similar levels in

the outyears, however, DOE funding for

the outyears is yet to be determined. For

multi-year projects, there will be an

evaluation of the project’s progress near

the end of each year to determine

whether to continue, redirect, or

discontinue funding the project.

Any non-profit or for-profit

organization, university, or other

institution of higher education, or nonfederal agency or entity is eligible to

apply. DOE National Laboratory

participation as a subcontractor is

limited to 30% of the total project costs

for each budget period. A minimum

non-federal cost-sharing commitment of

20% of the total project cost for each

budget period is required.
