BILLING CODE 3810–FF–P

DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY

Financial Assistance Award: Niel

Murdock

AGENCY: Department of Energy.

ACTION: Notice of intent.

SUMMARY: The U.S. Department of

Energy announces that pursuant to 10

CFR 600.6(a)(2) it is making a financial

assistance award under Grant Number

DE–FG01–95EE15624 to Niel Murdock.

The proposed grant will provide

funding in the estimated amount of

$99,236 by the Department of Energy for

the purpose of saving energy through

development of the inventor’s patented

Self Actuating Spillway Control Device,

a highly efficient alternative to rubber

dams, wooden flashboards, and other

common dam spillway gates.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The

Department of Energy has determined in

accordance with 10 CFR 600.14(e)(1)

that the unsolicited application for

financial assistance submitted by Niel

Murdock is meritorious based on the

general evaluation required by 10 CFR

600.14(d) and the proposed project

represents a unique idea that would not

be eligible for financial assistance under

a recent, current or planned solicitation.

The new technology is a molded rubber

panel with internal reinforcement that

bends under the force of flood waters.

Once water levels decrease, potential

energy absorbed by the panel forces it

back to its normal, upright position.

Thus the gate is totally self operating.

This novel technology needs no external

power to operate, as do inflatable rubber

dams, and does not wash away in flood

conditions, as do wooden flashboards.

The panel costs approximately half that

of rubber dams, and is very

advantageous at remote sites. For

hydroelectric dams alone, the market

potential of the self-actuating panel is

about $120 million. As hydroelectric

facilities account for only three percent

of the total number of dams in the U.S.,

the market potential appears significant.

The proposed project is not eligible

for financial assistance under a recent,

current or planned solicitation because

the funding program, the Energy Related

Invention Program (ERIP), has been

structured since its beginning in 1975 to

operate without competitive

solicitations because the authorizing

legislation directs ERIP to provide

support for worthy ideas submitted by

the public. The program has never

issued and has no plans to issue a

competitive solicitation. This award

will be made 14 calendar days after

publication to allow for public

comment.
