The subcommittee met in Casper, Wyoming to hear testimony on geothermal resources in Yellowstone National Park and other park systems and to consider S. 1516 and S. 669, which would help to expedite geothermal development. The lack of information on potential environmental damage, the quality of monitoring, and the poor record of damage from geothermal operations were of major concern. The testimony of 12 witnesses includes that of private and government geologists, environmental groups, and the Park Superintendent, who described the unique features of Yellowstone's Old Faithful Geyser and the importance of incorporating provisions into geothermal-leasing arrangements to protect the park.
