To achieve the goal of remediating waste sites throughout its complex and of bringing its facilities into full compliance by the year 2019, the DOE has established the Office of Environmental Restoration and Waste Management (E). Within E, the Office of Technology Development (OTD) has been created to develop technologies that will support DOE's cleanup goal. The OTD is accelerating remediation technology application by leveraging the expenditure of available funds through international technology development and demonstration projects. These projects will address EM's environmental restoration and waste management needs. For this reason, the OTD has created the International Technology Exchange Program (ITEP) whose primary objective is to effect collaboration among governments, industries, and educational institutions to identify worldwide technologies suitable for this purpose. These technologies should also meet US commercial needs. The ITEP will also serve as a mechanism for transferring technologies developed under DOE sponsorship to US industry for ultimate application in the international arena.
