The findings of the US EPA concerning the mandate in Section 11 of the Federal Nonnuclear Energy Research and Development Act (P.L. 93-577) to conduct a continuing analysis of the effect of the application of nonnuclear energy technologies to evaluate the adequacy of attention to energy conservation methods and the adequacy of attention to environmental protection and the environmental consequences of the application of energy technologies are given. Adequacy of attention to energy conservation was measured in three ways: adequacy of the resource allocation process; assessment of implementation and management (integration of conservation and solar programs, coordination of information programs, appropriate management of state and local programs and research and development); and adequacy of evaluative information for decision making. Information on public participation; conservation and solar program evaluations are given in appendices.
