Congressman Mike McCormack, chairman, who conducted the hearings, first reviewed the Solar Heating and Cooling Demonstration Act (P.L. 93-409), passed by the House Feb. 13, 1974, after very thorough hearings (13 sessions) and signed into law by former Prsident Ford on Sept. 3, 1974. In these Feb. 5-6, 1976 hearings, the Subcommittee was interested, first, in getting a status report on the demonstration phases of the program as provided by the law. Then, they wanted to learn what actions had been taken for the requirements of the law regarding: (1) dissemination of information on a coordinated basis; (2) study of the institutional barriers and the necessity of incentives; (3) establishment of a solar heating and cooling information data bank; and (4) promulgation of regulations for the demonstration program. Basically, the Subcommittee wanted to know whether or not the law was being implemented in an orderly manner; if not, how far behind schedule; will more money or staff insure keeping on schedule; and how can the Congress help. Testifying were Dr. Robert L. Hersch, Dr. Henry Marvin, and other solar officials of ERDA; Dr. Claude E. Barfield of HUD; Mortimer M. Marshall, Jr., and Dr. Walter C. Christensen of the Department of Defense. (LMT)
