The author describes flaws in the Reagan administration's cooperative federalism policy, particularly where renewable energy projects are concerned. In Oregon, an Alternate Energy Development Commission has provided a comprehensive plan for renewable resource development. The programs developed as a result of this plan have saved $77 million annually in energy bills. However, federal restrictions are impeding the states ability to finance residential solar and energy conservation projects.
