The state energy conservation program was created by enactment of PL 94-163, the Energy Policy and Conservation Act (EPCA). To be eligible for Federal financial assistance, each State plan must include five required program measures under the base (EPCA) program, and/or three required program measures under the supplemental Energy Conservation and Production Act (ECPA) program. States may also include any additional program measures which they consider appropriate and which contribute to energy savings. The five specific program measures required under the base program are: mandatory lighting efficiency standards for non-Federal public buildings; programs to promote the availability and use of carpools, vanpools, and public transportation; mandatory standards and policies relating to energy efficiency to govern the procurement practices of a state and its political subdivisions; mandatory thermal efficiency standards and insulation requirements for new and renovated non-Federal buildings; and a traffic law or regulation which to the maximum extent practicable and consistent with safety, permits motor vehicles to turn right at a red light after stopping. The three required measures under the supplemental program are: public awareness and information efforts; intergovernmental coordination; and energy audits for buildings and industrial plants. Program measures data are reported in this volume, alphabetically, for states Alabama through Montana. (MCW)
