Kansas energy 2000
The state of Kansas during the year 30 September 1991 to 29 September 1992 has accomplished a variety of objectives in its Department of Energy/Experimental Program to Stimulate Competitive Research (DOE/EPSCoR) planning process. As a new EPSCoR state, it has had to develop its management organization. This has been accomplished, with the result that EPSCoR is under the aegis of a body charged with planning the economic development of the state. An inventory of research assets and needs was performed and a report of the results of that inventory was produced. A DOE/EPSCoR Steering Committee was formed. This working committee met at least twice a month in the spring of 1992 doing strategic planning as well as giving guidance for the traineeship proposal recently funded. This committee identified certain priority areas for development by the DOE/EPSCOR project: Environment, Geology, Materials Science, Nuclear Science and Engineering, Alternate Sources and Efficiencies in Power Generation, Basic Sciences, and the Educational Pipeline. A call for proposals from state research groups has resulted in thirty-nine proposals in these priority areas. The best of them will then be selected for inclusion in the state's implementation plan and proposal.
