7526 Federal Register / Vol. 60, No. 26 / Wednesday, February 8, 1995 / Notices

ACTION: Notice of intent to award a grant

based upon an unsolicited application.

SUMMARY: The Department of Energy

(DOE), Golden Field Office, through the

Chicago Regional Support Office,

announces, pursuant to DOE Financial

Assistance Rules, 10 CFR 600.14(f), its

intent to award a grant to The American

Institute of Architects (AIA) to

coordinate technical assistance and

promote the use of energy efficient and

renewable energy technologies by the

village of Pattonsburg, Missouri, a

community that is rebuilding itself after

the Midwest floods of 1993.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

On June 3, 1994, AIA submitted a

proposal to assist the village of

Valmeyer, Illinois, which, like

Pattonsburg, is attempting to rebuild

after the 1993 floods. DOE accepted this

proposal and awarded AIA a grant in

the amount of $100,000. Subsequently,

AIA, DOE and the Federal Emergency

Management Agency (FEMA) jointly

agreed to provide similar assistance to

Pattonsburg. $50,000 in DOE funding

was provided on September 30, 1994.

DOE and FEMA have entered into an

Interagency Agreement through which

FEMA is providing $50,000 to support

of the project. Given the existence of the

DOE grant, FEMA and DOE have jointly

agreed that DOE will award and

administer the FEMA funds.

The unsolicited application for

support of this activity has been

accepted by DOE and FEMA as a result

of their joint determination that the

proposed activity is meritorious, likely

to be effective and successful, and offers

a unique opportunity to mitigate the

damage from future flood episodes

(FEMA), while advancing the DOE

mission of developing and

demonstrating the use of energy

efficient and renewable energy

technologies in a practical and highly

visible setting. The project period for

the award began on July 20, 1994, and

is scheduled to end on June 30, 1995.

DOE/FEMA plan to provide funding in

the amount of $50,000. This award will

not be made for at least 14 days to allow

for public comment.

AGENCY: Department of Energy.

ACTION: Notice of solicitation for

financial assistance for development of

Indian Energy Resources.

SUMMARY: The Office of Technical and

Financial Assistance, Energy Efficiency

and Renewable Energy, through the

Denver Regional Support Office,

announces its intention to issue a

competitive solicitation and make

financial assistance awards to support

Indian renewable energy and energy

efficiency resource activities as

authorized by section 2606 of Title

XXVI, Public Law 102–486, the Energy

Policy Act of 1992. This action is

subject to the DOE Financial Assistance

Rules, which can be found in title 10 of

the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR

may call the solicitation hotline at (303)

231–5750, ext. 132.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The U.S.

Department of Energy, Office of Energy

Efficiency and Renewable Energy, seeks

to assist Tribes in the development of

renewable energy and energy efficiency

projects on Indian Reservations. Section

2606 authorizes support of projects for

renewable energy and energy efficiency

such as (1) technical assistance, (2)

resource assessment, (3) feasibility

analysis, (4) technology transfer, and (5)

resolution of other technical, financial,

or management issues identified by

applicants. Demonstration projects

which are an integral part of a feasibility

study are allowable, whereas

construction project implementation

will not be considered. An applicant for

assistance must be a Federally

recognized Indian tribe, including an

Alaska Native village or corporation (as

defined in, or established under, the

Alaska Native Claims Settlement Act).

Renewable energy technologies of

interest, include but are not limited to:

bio-mass or bio-energy; photovoltaic;

wind turbine; hydropower or ocean

power; solar thermal; heat pump; and

geothermal technologies. Energy

efficiency projects include, but are not

limited to: lighting equipment systems;

heating and air conditioning equipment;

electric motors, various energy

conservation techniques and measures;

utility electric supply strategies;

building efficiency; automated/

computerized energy management

systems; and co-generation techniques.

More details on the types of

renewable energy and energy efficiency

projects and activities that might be

expected as a result of this competition

are included in the solicitation.

An applicant is advised to concentrate

only on its strongest, most promising,

and best developed energy resource

project. The DOE discourages multiple

applications from the same tribal entity.

With the exception of awards for the

purpose of feasibility studies, at least 20

percent of the cost of any project is to

be provided from non-Federal sources.

Applicants must show evidence of

tribal involvement in the proposed

energy project. Most commonly this will

be shown by including in the

application a tribal resolution, or

similarly official tribal document, which

reflects the tribe’s support for and

understanding of the project for which

funding is applied.

It is currently anticipated that the

review of applications will begin on or

about May 15, 1995. Selections will

commence approximately mid-June,

with anticipated award issuance during

the period July through September 1995.

It is anticipated that the DOE will

make multiple financial assistance

awards as a result of this solicitation. In

fiscal year 1995, approximately

$2,000,000 will be made available to the

program. Approximately 12–15 awards

may be made in fiscal year 1995 with

the federal share funding levels not to

exceed $200,000 per award. The number

of awards depends on the availability of

funds, needs of projects that are

continuing from prior years, DOE

program policy considerations, and the

technical quality of the applications.

Project periods will generally not

exceed one year in length. All DOE

funding is subject to the availability of

appropriations.

Awards may be either grants or

cooperative agreements, depending on

whether substantial involvement is

anticipated between DOE and the

recipient during performance of the

contemplated activity.
Federal Register / Vol. 60, No. 26 / Wednesday, February 8, 1995 / Notices 7527

The solicitation will be issued on or

about February 6, 1995, and will contain

detailed information on funding, cost

sharing requirements, eligibility,

application preparation, and evaluation.

Responses to the solicitation will be due

approximately 90 days after solicitation

release (see the solicitation instructions

for the exact date and time for

application submission).
