For the fiscal year 1981, the Department of Energy (DOE) is requesting almost $1 billion in budget authority for conservation programs. DOE's conservation programs, according to Maxine Savitz, deputy assistant secretary for conservation, are targeted to reduce oil imports 2.5 million barrels a day by 1985 and 4.9 million barrels a day by 1990. Over half of the billion-dollar budget request is for grants and other assistance to states and localities to help them implement energy-conservation measures. A second major part of the effort will be to increase energy efficiency in target energy end-use sectors: transportation, buildings, and industrial. DOE's third major route for encouraging conservation is through public education. (SAC)
