The House Committee on Science and Technology report on H.R. 4925 recommends passage of the bill as amended. A number of amendments entail increased appropriations for line item projects. The report summarizes the legislative history and need for the bill, information gathered during committee hearings, and a summary of amendments proposed by the committee, which increase the DOE proposal of $2.615 million to $2.94 million for energy research and development. The committee responded, in particular, to the 57% decrease in DOE's budget request for fossil energy activities and other reductions in the area of conservation and alternative energy resources. Summaries of specific programs and projects include the DOE request, committee views, and committee action.
