We're still checking the number with USDA; I'd go with the $10 m. for now
if it has to go - that's a fairly safe bet.
One other change (in bold) to the "Forests and Farms" paragraph: in the
second sentence, "...pilot projects to demonstrate how improved farming
and forestry practices can help absorb carbon,..."

TEXT:
Some much-needed clarification: the carbon cycle initiative is "new" in
the sense that it is focusing -- for the first time -- on the
Kyoto-relevant issue of TERRESTRIAL carbon sinks. (The big science
question in the past has been how much carbon from manmade sources the
oceans would absorb -- which would affect how fast carbon accumulated in
the air.) The focus of the new program is science: improving the
measurement and modeling of terrestrial (i.e., farms and forests) sources
and sinks.
And there is new money -- $10 million in USDA (split 50-50 between ARS and
Forest Service) and $5 million in DOE (expanded carbon monitoring
networks). The $12 million in NRCS for soil carbon inventory is also new
and has been included in the USGCRP "carbon cycle" column. There was
about another $16 million in NSF, NASA, and NOAA that was moved into this
new program from their bases. So altogether there is about $43 million
of new research for the terrestrial carbon cycle. The rest of the USGCRP
$189 million total is relabeling of existing programs that are focused
mostly on the "old" ocean carbon sink research.
Hope this clarifies things.

Note: Biographies of Professors Davis and Marty attached.
Natalie Zemon Davis
Natalie Davis was born in Detroit in 1928, the descendant of Jews from eastern
Europe who came to Vermont and Michigan in the nineteenth century. She was
educated at Smith College, Radcliffe College, and the University of Michigan,
from which she received her Ph.D. in 1959. She has taught at Brown University,
the University of Toronto, the University of California at Berkeley, and from
1978 to 1996 at Princeton University, where she became the Henry Charles Lea
Professor of History and Director of the Shelby Cullom Davis Center for
Historical Studies. She has also been a visiting professor at the Ecole des
Hautes Etudes en Sciences Sociales in Paris, at Yale University, and at Balliol
College Oxford.
Currently Professor Emeritus from Princeton, Natalie Davis is now associated
with the University of Toronto. She has taught courses in the history of early
modern France, and has pioneered interdisciplinary courses in history,
anthropology, literature and film; the study of women and gender; and the
social history of the Jews. Professor Davis has a world-wide reputation for
her innovating publications in the social and cultural history of
sixteenth-century France and early modern Europe and the history of women.
Her books, which have appeared in many languages, have reached both academic
and non-academic readers, and she has enlarged her audience through
collaboration on historical film.
In Society and Culture in Early Modern France (1975) and in numerous essays,
Professor Davis has treated subjects as wide-ranging as early trade unions, the
meanings and uses of popular carnivals, the structure of religious riots, and
family memory. Her book The Return of Martin Guerre (1983, published in nine
other languages and forthcoming in four more) and her collaboration on the
French film of the same name allowed her to explore the creation of identity in
a peasant milieu and the resonance of a story that has fascinated readers and
theater-goers since the sixteenth century. In 1995 Professor Davis published
Women in the Margins, Three Seventeenth-Century Lives. Here she describes the
lives and writings of a Jewish merchant woman, who left an autobiography in
Yiddish; a Catholic woman, who founded the first Ursuline school in North
America; and a Protestant woman the artist Maria Sibylla Merian who create
d a new form of entomological and botanical description in studying the natural
world of Suriname.
Natalie Davis has been awarded honorary degrees from Harvard University and
Cambridge University, as well as twenty-five other universities in the United
States, Canada, France, Scotland, and Germany. She has also been elected a
Fellow of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences and a Corresponding Fellow
of the British Academy. In 1987, she was President of the American Historical
Association, and is currently First Vice President of the International
Congress of Historical Studies. Professor Davis resides in Toronto, where her
husband is a professor of mathematics. She has three children and is now
trying to inspire her four grandchildren to love history.
Martin E. Marty
Born in 1928 in West Point, Nebraska, Martin E. Marty, is often described as
&the foremost interpreter of American religion today. The son of a Lutheran
schoolteacher and organist, he was educated at Concordia Seminary in St. Louis
and received his Masters and Ph.D. in American Intellectual and Religious
History from the University of Chicago in 1956. He taught at the University of
Chicago for thirty-five years and currently directs the Public Religion Project
which the University hosts. This project &promotes efforts to bring to light
and interpret the forces of faith within a pluralistic society, 8 a phrase that
captures much of what historian Martin Marty, the Fairfax M. Cone Distinguished
Service Professor Emeritus, has been and is about.
Ordained as a Lutheran to the Christian Ministry forty-seven years ago,
Professor Marty is recognized as a leader in ecumenical and interfaith
affairs. For forty years he was an editor of The Christian Century and
continues to write for it, just as he edits and writes the newsletter Context,
and for thirty-five years, co-edited the scholarly journal Church History.
Since 1949, he has written over 5,000 journal articles, columns, and reviews.
Professor Marty was the founding President and is now the George B. Caldwell
Senior Scholar-in-Residence at the Park Ridge Center for Health, Faith, and
Ethics, a role to which he brings energies as theologian and ethicist. He is
also active as an academic lecturer and consultant; he has spoken on over 500
campuses, and is Chair of the Board of Regents of St. Olaf College in
Minnesota.
Professor Marty has authored over fifty books, including the National Book
Award winning Righteous Empire (1972). His major endeavor in recent years has
been a three-volume work, Modern American Religion. The recent The One and the
Many: America,s Search for the Common Good combines historical insight and
comment on contemporary affairs. He has also co-authored several books with
photographer-son Micah Marty, including the new When True Simplicity Is Gained:
Finding Spiritual Clarity in a Complex World.
Martin Marty has been awarded over sixty honorary degrees. In 1998, he was
awarded the National Medal of Humanities and the Medal of the American Academy
of Arts and Sciences in 1995. The past President of the American Academy of
Religion, the American Society of Church History, and the American Catholic
Historical Association, he is also an elected member of the American
Philosophical Society.
The University of Chicago, where Professor Marty was the Ph.D. dissertation
advisor to more than 100 scholars, has established the Martin Marty Center for
the study of &public religion8. &Marty,8 as everyone calls him, and his
wife Harriet, a musician, live in Riverside, Illinois, where seven children,
including two who joined the family as foster children, and eight grandchildren
regularly gather, and where generations of students and friends have
experienced hospitality.

VICE PRESIDENT GORE ANNOUNCES $305 MILLION WILL GO TO
STATES TO ASSIST VICTIMS OF CRIME
Sacramento, CA -- Vice President Gore announced today that states
will receive $305 million in funds to help crime victims rebuild their
lives. California will receive more than $43 million in state crime victim
compensation and victim assistance programs.
"We're taking the money out of the hands of criminals and giving
it to the victims and those who help victims recover from the devastating
effects of crime," Vice President Gore said.
The Justice Department's Office for Victims of Crime (OVC)
administers the Crime Victims Fund which collects all fines collected by
the U.S. Attorneys, the U.S. Courts and Bureau of Prisons each year. These
funds are then made available for grant awards in the following year. The
fund is supported solely by fines paid by federal criminal offenders --
not taxpayers. Many of the funds collected come from large criminal fines
levied against corporations.
Like private insurance, state compensation programs reimburse
victims of crime directly for such crime-related expenses as medical
treatment, counseling, funeral costs and lost wages. State victim
assistance programs provide funds to community agencies that assist crime
victims through crises intervention, criminal justice advocacy,
counseling, emergency shelter and other services. These funds support
nearly 3,000 victim service agencies, such as domestic violence shelters,
child abuse and sexual assault programs.
In addition to funding state victim compensation and victim
assistance programs, OVC trains those who work with victims and develops
projects to enhance victims' rights and services.
A list of victim compensation and victim assistance allocations
each state is expected to receive is attached. The Department of Justice
will complete award all states' funds by the end of February.

The following is a HEX DUMP:
Clean Air Partnership Fund
To help protect public health and ease the threat of global warming, President Clinton is
proposing the creation of a new Clean Air Partnership Fund. The President's FY 2000 budget
includes $200 million for the Fund, which will support state, local and private efforts that
achieve reductions in both greenhouse gas emissions and ground-level air pollutants. The
Fund will be administered by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) under existing
authority.
A Quicker Path to Cleaner Air. The Clean Air Partnership Fund will direct new
resources to state and local governments to provide financing for public and private
sector projects that accelerate pollution reductions. This new financing will support
projects that go beyond current requirements and enable communities to achieve clean
air goals sooner.
Integrated Pollution Control. Targeting the financing towards projects and programs
that achieve integrated reductions in soot, smog, air toxics and greenhouse gases will
stimulate integrated, cost-effective pollution control strategies.
Technological Innovation. The Fund will help spur both public and private sector
innovations in next-generation technology to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and
other air pollutants.
Public-Private Partnerships. The Fund will encourage public-private partnerships to
demonstrate ways to create a cleaner environment at the local level.
Leveraging Non-Federal Investments. The Fund can be used to capitalize local
revolving funds and other financial mechanisms, such as low-interest loan programs and
matching funds, that leverage the original federal investment.

Climate Change Technology Initiative:
$3.6 Billion in Tax Incentives
The President is proposing a $3.6 billion package in tax incentives over 5 years to
encourage energy efficiency and help develop renewable energy sources (see Table 1). This
year's package of tax proposals has been updated and modified from last year's.

HOMES AND BUILDINGS
Tax credit to consumers who purchase new energy efficient homes. To encourage the
purchase of new energy-efficient homes, consumers would receive a tax credit of $1,000
for homes purchased from 2000-2001 that are at least 30 percent more energy efficient
than the standard under the 1998 International Energy Conservation Code (IECC); a
[Automated Records Management System Hex-Dump Conversion]
credit of $1,500 for homes purchased from 2000-2002 that are at least 40 percent more
efficient than the IECC standard; and a credit of $2,000 for homes purchased from
2000-2004 that are at least 50 percent more efficient than the IECC standard.
Tax credit for installing energy efficient equipment in existing homes or buildings.
This credit will encourage the purchase of electric heat pump and natural gas water heaters,
electric and natural gas heat pumps, advanced central air conditioners and fuels cells. The
credit would apply to both residential and commercial equipment. For fuel cells the credit
would be 20 percent of the cost of the investment, subject to a cap. For all other
equipment, the credit would be 10 percent of the cost of the investment, subject to a
cap, for energy-efficient equipment purchased in 2000 and 2001 and 20 percent, subject
to a cap, for higher-efficiency equipment purchased from 2000 through 2003.
Tax credit for rooftop solar systems. A tax credit equal to 15 percent of the cost of the
investment will encourage the purchase by consumers and businesses of rooftop solar
systems and solar water heating systems. The maximum credit would be $2,000 for
rooftop photovoltaic systems installed through 2006 and $1,000 for solar water heating
systems placed in service from 2000 through 2004.
VEHICLES
Tax credits for electric vehicles, fuel cell vehicles, and high-efficiency hybrid
vehicles. Cars and light trucks (including minivans, sport utilities, and pickups) currently
account for 20 percent of greenhouse gas emissions. Tax credits for electric vehicles, fuel
cell vehicles and highly fuel efficient hybrid vehicles will encourage the early introduction
and purchase of vehicles that incorporate new fuel efficient technologies and will help to
move vehicles that are ultra efficient from the laboratory to the highway. These vehicles
can significantly reduce emissions of carbon dioxide, the most prevalent greenhouse gas.
Extend the present tax credit for electric vehicles and fuel cell vehicles .
Under current law, a 10 percent credit is provided for the cost of qualified electric
vehicles and fuel cell vehicles up to $4,000. The full amount of the credit is
available for purchases prior to 2002. The credit begins to phase down in 2002
and phases out in 2005. The President's proposal would extend the tax credit at its
$4,000 maximum level through 2006.
Tax credits for highly fuel efficient hybrid vehicles. The credit -- available for
all qualifying vehicles, including cars, minivans, sport utility vehicles, and pickup
trucks -- would be:
-- $1,000 for each vehicle that is one-third more fuel efficient than a
comparable vehicle in its class. Available from 2003-2004;
[Automated Records Management System Hex-Dump Conversion]
-- $2,000 for each vehicle that is two-thirds more fuel efficient than a
comparable vehicle in its class. Available from 2003-2006.
-- $3,000 for each vehicle that is twice as fuel efficient as a comparable
vehicle in its class. Available 2003-2006; and
-- $4,000 for each vehicle that is three times as fuel efficient as a
comparable vehicle in its class. Available 2004-2006.
RENEWABLE ENERGY
Tax credit for electricity produced from wind. Current law encourages the production of
electricity from wind, which emits no greenhouse gases, through a tax credit of 1.5 cents
per kilowatt hour (adjusted for inflation after 1992). The current tax credit covers
facilities placed in service before July 1, 1999. The President proposes a 5-year extension
of this tax credit.
Tax credits for electricity produced from biomass. This package of credits would:
-- Extend current biomass credit. This proposal extends for five years the
current 1.5 cent per kilowatt hour tax credit (adjusted for inflation after 1992),
which is scheduled to expire after June 30, 1999.
-- Expand definition of eligible biomass. This proposal expands the definition
of biomass eligible for the 1.5 cent tax credit to include certain forest-related
resources and agricultural and other sources.
-- Include cofiring biomass and coal. This proposal adds a 1.0 cent per kilowatt
hour tax credit for electricity produced by cofiring biomass in coal plants.
INDUSTRY
Tax credit for combined heat and power (CHP) systems. CHP systems make effective
use of thermal energy that is otherwise wasted in producing electricity by more
conventional methods. To encourage and accelerate investment in CHP equipment,
this proposal provides an 8 percent tax credit for investments in large CHP systems that
have a total energy efficiency exceeding 70 percent and in smaller systems that have a
total energy efficiency exceeding 60 percent. The credit would apply to property
placed in service from 2000 through 2002.
[Automated Records Management System Hex-Dump Conversion]
Climate Change Technology Initiative:
$ for Energy Efficiency and Clean Technologies
The President's FY 2000 budget proposes $1.4 billion for the research, development and deployment of clean technologies and
energy-efficient practices. This represents a $347 increase (34 percent) over FY 1999 spending. The President's
proposed investment package covers the four major carbon-emitting sectors of the economy --
Buildings, Transportation, Industry, and Electricity -- as well as Carbon Sequestration. [HOLD FOR GRAPHIC OR

[Table 2 -- breakdown by area of effort]
The following sections highlight selected programs in each of these areas of effort. The full
agency programs extend well beyond what is described here.
BUILDINGS
Partnership for Advancing Technology in Housing (PATH). The Department Housing and Urban Development
(HUD), Department of Energy (DOE), and the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) are working with the building
industry to develop, demonstrate and deploy housing technologies to make homes 50% more energy-efficient within
a decade and to enable the retrofitting of at least 15 million existing homes within a decade to make them 30% more
energy efficient.
-- In support of PATH's goals, DOE's Building America program will aid
developers in building 2,000 highly energy-efficient, environmentally sound and
cost-effective houses and then disseminate the results to the builders of 15,000
other houses. [RS]
Energy-Efficient Appliances & Equipment. A number of DOE and EPA programs aim
to improve the energy-efficiency of appliances and equipment and encourage more
widespread use of high-efficiency products:
-- DOE will accelerate the lighting and appliance energy efficiency standards program to realize even
greater savings of energy, consumer energy costs and greenhouse gas emissions.
-- DOE and EPA's Energy Star Products program saves consumers money and
reduces greenhouse gas emissions at the same time by promoting the use of
energy-efficient appliances -- everything from computers to refrigerators to central
air-conditioning units. New funding will support the launch of new Energy Star
product lines.
[Automated Records Management System Hex-Dump Conversion]
-- DOE will increase investment R&D for key efficiency technologies such as
advanced lighting, space conditioning, building cogeneration and advanced
appliances.
Energy Efficient Commercial Buildings. DOE and EPA work in partnership with
industry to research, develop, and deploy new technologies and practices to improve the
energy performance of commercial buildings. Buildings in the top 25 percent in energy
efficiency qualify for EPA's "Energy Star Buildings" label. Participants include the
Empire State Building, the World Trade Center, and Chicago's Sears Tower. [HK] [RS]
Energy Smart Schools. Announced in October, 1998, this initiative cuts across several DOE programs and brings
together public and private sector resources to cut schools' energy bills so that the savings can be reinvested in
students and their education.
TRANSPORTATION
Partnership for a New Generation of Vehicles. A government-industry effort to develop
attractive, affordable cars that meet all applicable safety and environmental standards and
get up to three times the fuel efficiency of today's cars. Since 1993, great strides have
been made in producing lower-cost, light-weight materials, inexpensive fuel cells, and
advanced internal combustion engines for use in hybrid vehicles. The program aims to
produce a prototype mid-sized family car capable of 80 miles per gallon (mpg) with a
two-thirds reduction in carbon emissions by 2004. [HK] [RS][$$]
Partnerships for Light and Heavy Trucks. Similar government-industry efforts are
aimed at developing cleaner, more efficient diesel engines for both light and heavy trucks.
-- By 2002, DOE aims to develop advanced diesel cycle engine technologies for
pickup trucks, vans, and sport utility vehicles which achieve at least a 35 percent
fuel efficiency improvement relative to current gasoline-fueled trucks by 2002
while meeting strict emission standards.
-- By 2004, DOE, in coordination with EPA [and DOD], aims to develop engine
and vehicle technologies for heavy trucks that will increase the fuel economy to
12 mpg from the current average of 5.3 mpg. [RS -- is DOD included?]
Biofuels. DOE R&D efforts are seeking to produce alternative fuels for vehicles, such as
ethanol, using agricultural crop waste. The program has completed the design of a 10
million gallons/year first-of-a-kind refinery for producing ethanol from biomass. In the
upcoming year, it will seek to demonstrate the conversion of agricultural wastes to ethanol
at a small commercial scale using a genetically engineered fermentative microorganism.
[HK] [RS]
[Automated Records Management System Hex-Dump Conversion]
INDUSTRY
Industries of the Future. This DOE program works cooperatively with the nation's
most energy-intensive industries -- such as aluminum, glass, chemicals, forest products, mining,
petroleum refining, and steel -- on developing technologies that increase energy and resource
efficiency. Examples of promising collaborative efforts include improvements in the
process of making steel and improvements in the aluminum production process that
could dramatically increase efficiency and eliminate emissions of perfluorocarbons (PFCs), a highly potent
greenhouse gas.
Industrial Cogeneration. DOE is developing new industrial power/cogeneration
systems to capture heat that would otherwise be wasted. These systems are expected
to be 15 percent more energy efficient, 80 percent cleaner than conventional power
systems and cut electricity costs by 10 percent. In addition, EPA and DOE are also
working to eliminate barriers to the rapid dissemination of combined heat and power
technology.
Agriculture. The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) will undertake R&D and
support demonstration projects aimed at both lowering greenhouse gas emissions from
agriculture and reducing agriculture's vulnerability to climate change.
--The Natural Resources Conservation Service will invest $3 million in projects
to demonstrate and test various greenhouse gas mitigation strategies and
monitoring mechanisms, such as compost-based waste-handling facilities,
rotational grazing systems and improved feed and forage systems.
--The Agricultural Research Service will devote $7 million toward the
development of new technology and expertise for reducing agriculture's
vulnerability to a changing climate. Field experiments will seek to measure
various potential effects of climate change, such as varying amounts and patterns of
rainfall on forage production. Work will also be done on innovative bioenergy
technologies.
ELECTRICITY
Photovoltaic Energy Systems. Over the past 20 years, Federal R&D has resulted in a
90 percent cost reduction in solar photovoltaics. DOE will accelerate R&D of the next
generation photovoltaic cells; increase manufacturing R&D; increase research in
buildings-integrated applications; and fund new efforts to develop unconventional
technological breakthroughs.
[Automated Records Management System Hex-Dump Conversion]
- Million Solar Roofs. In June, 1997, the President announced an initiative to encourage the installation
of one million solar systems by 2010, which would reduce carbon emissions equivalent to the annual
emissions from 850,000 cars. DOE has received commitments for over half a million
solar rooftop installations.
Biomass. Biomass refers to trees, crops and agricultural wastes used to produce
power, fuels or chemicals. It represents a tremendous, renewable resource whose use can
help strengthen our energy security, protect the environment, and revitalize rural America.
-- Biomass Power. DOE is testing and demonstrating biomass co-firing with
coal; developing advanced technologies for biomass gasification using paper
industry by-products; and developing and testing high-yield, low-cost biomass
feedstocks.
-- Developing An Integrated Biomass Market. This year DOE, USDA, and
other federal agencies and private partners, will launch a national partnership to
develop an integrated biomass industry.
Wind Power. DOE will continue developing a next-generation wind turbine able to
produce power at 2.5 cents per kilowatt-hour in good wind regions, accelerate R&D on
critical components, and accelerate testing and field validation.
Hydrogen. DOE will accelerate research on low-cost hydrogen production and storage,
prerequisites to the widespread use of hydrogen as a fuel.
High Temperature Superconductivity. DOE supports industry-led projects to capitalize
on recent breakthroughs in superconducting wire technology, potentially leading to the
development of devices such as advanced motors, power cables, and transformers. These
technologies would allow more electricity to reach the consumer without an increase in
fossil fuel input. [RS]
CARBON REMOVAL AND SEQUESTRATION
R&D for Removal and Sequestration. Research initiatives are being funded to find ways
to remove carbon dioxide from combustion gases and to sequester (store) carbon.
Examples include:
-- [RS]
-- Enhancing Forest and Farmland Sinks. USDA will spend $6 million for
R&D and demonstration projects for optimizing forest and rangeland carbon sinks.
The focus of such projects will include storage of carbon in forest soils and
[Automated Records Management System Hex-Dump Conversion]
increased durability and use of wood products to sequester carbon.
-- Enhancing natural geological and oceanic processes. DOE will support
research into the feasibility of capturing and storing carbon dioxide in underground
geological structures or in the deep ocean.
[Automated Records Management System Hex-Dump Conversion]
Other Climate-Related Investments
There are a number of additional programs funded in the FY 2000 budget that -- while not part of
the Climate Change Technology Initiative or the U.S. Global Climate Change Research Program
per se -- contribute to improving energy efficiency and/or reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
These programs include:
Cleaner Coal and Power. The Department of Energy (DOE) supports an aggressive
R&D effort to develop next-generation technologies for coal and gas combustion.
Research and development on two new coal combustion technologies -- integrated
gasification combined cycle and pressurized fluidized bed combustion -- could lead to
ultra-high efficiency coal plants with dramatically lower greenhouse gas emissions.
Low Income Weatherization and State Energy Grants. These DOE programs facilitate
energy efficiency investments at the State and local level. The Weatherization
Assistance Program, for example, delivers energy conservation services, [such as
insulation] to low-income Americans, reducing energy costs for consumers, improving
health and safety, and reducing carbon emissions. The total FY 2000 budget request for
these two programs is $191 million -- a $25 million increase over FY 1999.
Agricultural & Forestry Conservation Programs. Many U.S. Department of Agriculture
(USDA) conservation programs have the co-benefit of reducing carbon emissions resulting
from agriculture and forestry and enhancing the ability of "sinks," such as forests and farmlands, to
sequester or store carbon. This includes programs such as the Farmland Protection Program, the
Environmental Quality Incentives Program, and the Wildlife Habitat Incentives Program.
In general, these programs assist farmers, ranchers, and other landowners in conserving
and improving soil, water, and other natural resources associated with rural land. Overall
funding in FY 2000 for agricultural and forestry conservation programs with significant
climate co-benefits is $
billion -- a
% increase from FY 1999. [MW]
[Automated Records Management System Hex-Dump Conversion]
U.S. Global Change Research Program
The United States Global Change Research Program (USGCRP) seeks to provide a sound
scientific understanding of both the human and natural forces that influence the Earth's climate
system. The information produced by USGCRP's scientists is used by national and international
policy makers to make informed decisions on global change issues. It is a multi-agency scientific
research program coordinated through the National Science and Technology Council's Committee
on Environment and Natural Resources.
For FY 2000, the President is requesting $1.786 billion for the U.S. Global Change Research
Program, an increase of $105 million, or 6 percent, above FY 1999 estimated budget levels. Of
the FY 2000 budget request, $828 million is for scientific research up $84 million) and $958
million is for NASA's development of climate monitoring satellites and ground based observation
systems. Other important USGCRP budget highlights include:
Carbon Cycle Initiative. The FY 2000 budget request establishes a new initiative to study
of the role of farms and forests in capturing carbon that would otherwise be released to the
atmosphere, contributing to the growing concentrations of carbon dioxide, a major
greenhouse gas. Such agricultural carbon "sinks" may provide the U.S. and other nations
with new tools for offsetting greenhouse gas emissions. The funding will also help
scientists better understand carbon sources and sinks on large geographic and time scales.
The initiative includes $10 million in funding for the U.S. Department of Agriculture
(USDA) and $5 million for the Department of Energy (DOE).
Soil Carbon Inventory. The FY 2000 budget request includes $13.5 million (an increase
of $12 million from FY 1999) for a comprehensive scientific inventory of carbon stored in
U.S. soils and to develop methods to predict how soil carbon levels would be affected by
different practices and policies. The inventory will be conducted by USDA's Natural
Resources Conservation Service. [MW -- check]
3 Dimensional Mapping of Forests. The FY 2000 budget provides funding to launch
NASA's Vegetation Canopy Lidar which for the first time will give scientists a three
dimensional view of the earth's forests to help determine the contribution of forests in
sequestering atmospheric carbon.
Consequences of Climate Change. The FY 2000 budget provides funding to complete a
report on the first national assessment of the potential consequences of climate change on
the United States. Key areas of focus include potential impacts on key economic sectors
and geographic regions, identifying mitigation and adaptation strategies, and technical
information to help policy makers consider appropriate measures.
[Automated Records Management System Hex-Dump Conversion]
Regional variability. The FY 2000 budget request includes funding to help scientists
examine climate change and variability on a regional scale. Supported in part by the
Administration's new Information Technology Initiative, the funding will help improve
U.S. computer capabilities to run the complex models required to understand the impacts
of climate change and variability at the regional scale.

The following is a HEX DUMP:
Clean Air Partnership Fund
To help protect public health and ease the threat of global warming, President Clinton is
proposing the creation of a new Clean Air Partnership Fund. The President's FY 2000 budget
includes $200 million for the Fund, which will support state, local and private efforts that
achieve reductions in both greenhouse gas emissions and ground-level air pollutants. The
Fund will be administered by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) under existing
authority.
A Quicker Path to Cleaner Air. The Clean Air Partnership Fund will direct new
resources to state and local governments to provide financing for public and private
sector projects that accelerate pollution reductions. This new financing will support
projects that go beyond current requirements and enable communities to achieve clean
air goals sooner.
Integrated Pollution Control. Targeting the financing towards projects and programs
that achieve integrated reductions in soot, smog, air toxics and greenhouse gases will
stimulate integrated, cost-effective pollution control strategies.
Technological Innovation. The Fund will help spur both public and private sector
innovations in next-generation technology to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and
other air pollutants.
Public-Private Partnerships. The Fund will encourage public-private partnerships to
demonstrate ways to create a cleaner environment at the local level.
Leveraging Non-Federal Investments. The Fund can be used to capitalize local
revolving funds and other financial mechanisms, such as low-interest loan programs and
matching funds, that leverage the original federal investment.

Climate Change Technology Initiative:
$3.6 Billion in Tax Incentives
The President is proposing a $3.6 billion package in tax incentives over 5 years to
encourage energy efficiency and help develop renewable energy sources (see Table 1). This
year's package of tax proposals has been updated and modified from last year's.

HOMES AND BUILDINGS
Tax credit to consumers who purchase new energy efficient homes. To encourage the
purchase of new energy-efficient homes, consumers would receive a tax credit of $1,000
for homes purchased from 2000-2001 that are at least 30 percent more energy efficient
than the standard under the 1998 International Energy Conservation Code (IECC); a
credit of $1,500 for homes purchased from 2000-2002 that are at least 40 percent more
efficient than the IECC standard; and a credit of $2,000 for homes purchased from
2000-2004 that are at least 50 percent more efficient than the IECC standard.
[Automated Records Management System Hex-Dump Conversion]
Tax credit for installing energy efficient equipment in existing homes or buildings.
This credit will encourage the purchase of electric heat pump and natural gas water heaters,
electric and natural gas heat pumps, advanced central air conditioners and fuels cells. The
credit would apply to both residential and commercial equipment. For fuel cells the credit
would be 20 percent of the cost of the investment, subject to a cap. For all other
equipment, the credit would be 10 percent of the cost of the investment, subject to a
cap, for energy-efficient equipment purchased in 2000 and 2001 and 20 percent, subject
to a cap, for higher-efficiency equipment purchased from 2000 through 2003.
Tax credit for rooftop solar systems. A tax credit equal to 15 percent of the cost of the
investment will encourage the purchase by consumers and businesses of rooftop solar
systems and solar water heating systems. The maximum credit would be $2,000 for
rooftop photovoltaic systems installed through 2006 and $1,000 for solar water heating
systems placed in service from 2000 through 2004.
VEHICLES
Tax credits for electric vehicles, fuel cell vehicles, and high-efficiency hybrid
vehicles. Cars and light trucks (including minivans, sport utilities, and pickups) currently
account for 20 percent of greenhouse gas emissions. Tax credits for electric vehicles, fuel
cell vehicles and highly fuel efficient hybrid vehicles will encourage the early introduction
and purchase of vehicles that incorporate new fuel efficient technologies and will help to
move vehicles that are ultra efficient from the laboratory to the highway. These vehicles
can significantly reduce emissions of carbon dioxide, the most prevalent greenhouse gas.
Extend the present tax credit for electric vehicles and fuel cell vehicles
Under current law, a 10 percent credit is provided for the cost of qualified electric
vehicles and fuel cell vehicles up to $4,000. The full amount of the credit is
available for purchases prior to 2002. The credit begins to phase down in 2002
and phases out in 2005. The President's proposal would extend the tax credit at its
$4,000 maximum level through 2006.
Tax credits for highly fuel efficient hybrid vehicles. The credit -- available for
all qualifying vehicles, including cars, minivans, sport utility vehicles, and pickup
trucks -- would be:
-- $1,000 for each vehicle that is one-third more fuel efficient than a
comparable vehicle in its class. Available from 2003-2004;
-- $2,000 for each vehicle that is two-thirds more fuel efficient than a
comparable vehicle in its class. Available from 2003-2006.
[Automated Records Management System Hex-Dump Conversion]
-- $3,000 for each vehicle that is twice as fuel efficient as a comparable
vehicle in its class. Available 2003-2006; and
-- $4,000 for each vehicle that is three times as fuel efficient as a
comparable vehicle in its class. Available 2004-2006.
RENEWABLE ENERGY
Tax credit for electricity produced from wind. Current law encourages the production of
electricity from wind, which emits no greenhouse gases, through a tax credit of 1.5 cents
per kilowatt hour (adjusted for inflation after 1992). The current tax credit covers
facilities placed in service before July 1, 1999. The President proposes a 5-year extension
of this tax credit.
Tax credits for electricity produced from biomass. This package of credits would:
-- Extend current biomass credit. This proposal extends for five years the
current 1.5 cent per kilowatt hour tax credit (adjusted for inflation after 1992),
which is scheduled to expire after June 30, 1999.
-- Expand definition of eligible biomass. This proposal expands the definition
of biomass eligible for the 1.5 cent tax credit to include certain forest-related
resources and agricultural and other sources.
-- Include cofiring biomass and coal. This proposal adds a 1.0 cent per kilowatt
hour tax credit for electricity produced by cofiring biomass in coal plants.
INDUSTRY
Tax credit for combined heat and power (CHP) systems. CHP systems make effective
use of thermal energy that is otherwise wasted in producing electricity by more
conventional methods. To encourage and accelerate investment in CHP equipment,
this proposal provides an 8 percent tax credit for investments in large CHP systems that
have a total energy efficiency exceeding 70 percent and in smaller systems that have a
total energy efficiency exceeding 60 percent. The credit would apply to property
placed in service from 2000 through 2002.
[Automated Records Management System Hex-Dump Conversion]
Climate Change Technology Initiative:
$ for Energy Efficiency and Clean Technologies
The President's FY 2000 budget proposes nearly $1.4 billion for the research, development and deployment of clean
technologies and energy-efficient practices. This represents a $347 million increase (34 percent) over FY 1999 spending.
The President's proposed investment package covers the four major carbon-emitting sectors of the
economy -- Buildings, Transportation, Industry, and Electricity -- which account for 85% of U.S. greenhouse gas emissions, as
well as Carbon Removal and Sequestration.
Tables 1 and 2 below show how this spending is allocated, both by agency and by area of effort.

[Table 2 -- breakdown by area of effort]
The following sections highlight selected programs in each of these areas of effort. The full
agency programs extend well beyond what is described here.
BUILDINGS
Partnership for Advancing Technology in Housing (PATH). The Department Housing and Urban Development
(HUD), Department of Energy (DOE), the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), the Federal Emergency
Management Agency (FEMA), and other agencies are working with the building industry to develop, demonstrate and
deploy housing technologies to make homes 50% more energy-efficient within a decade and to enable the retrofitting
of at least 15 million existing homes within a decade to make them 30% more energy efficient.
-- In support of PATH's goals, DOE's Building America program will aid
developers in building 2,000 highly energy-efficient, environmentally sound and
cost-effective houses and then disseminate the results to the builders of 15,000
other houses. [RS]
Energy Efficient Appliances and Equipment. A number of DOE and EPA programs aim
[Automated Records Management System Hex-Dump Conversion]
to improve the energy-efficiency of appliances and equipment and encourage more
widespread use of high-efficiency products:
-- DOE will accelerate the lighting and appliance energy efficiency standards program to realize even
greater savings of energy, consumer energy costs and greenhouse gas emissions.
-- DOE and EPA's Energy Star Products program saves consumers money and
reduces greenhouse gas emissions at the same time by promoting the use of
energy-efficient appliances -- everything from computers to refrigerators to central
air-conditioning units. New funding will support the launch of new Energy Star
product lines.
-- DOE will increase investment R&D for key energy efficient technologies such
as advanced lighting, space conditioning, building cogeneration and advanced
appliances.
Energy Efficient Commercial Buildings. DOE and EPA work in partnership with
industry to research, develop, and deploy new technologies and practices to improve the
energy performance of commercial buildings. Buildings in the top 25 percent in energy
efficiency qualify for EPA's "Energy Star Buildings" label. Participants include the
Empire State Building, the World Trade Center, and Chicago's Sears Tower. [HK] [RS]
Energy Smart Schools. Announced in October, 1998, this initiative cuts across several DOE programs and brings
together public and private sector resources to cut schools' energy bills so that the savings can be reinvested in
students and their education.
TRANSPORTATION
Partnership for a New Generation of Vehicles. A government-industry effort to develop
attractive, affordable cars that meet all applicable safety and environmental standards and
get up to three times the fuel efficiency of today's cars. Since 1993, great strides have
been made in producing lower-cost, light-weight materials, inexpensive fuel cells, and
advanced internal combustion engines for use in hybrid vehicles. The program aims to
produce a prototype mid-sized family car capable of 80 miles per gallon (mpg) with a
two-thirds reduction in carbon emissions by 2004. [HK] [RS][$$]
Partnerships for Light and Heavy Trucks. Similar government-industry efforts are
aimed at developing cleaner, more efficient diesel engines for both light and heavy trucks.
-- By 2002, DOE aims to develop advanced diesel cycle engine technologies for
pickup trucks, vans, and sport utility vehicles which achieve at least a 35 percent
fuel efficiency improvement relative to current gasoline-fueled trucks by 2002
[Automated Records Management System Hex-Dump Conversion]
while meeting strict emission standards.
-- By 2004, DOE, in coordination with EPA [and DOD], aims to develop engine
and vehicle technologies for heavy trucks that will increase the fuel economy to
12 mpg from the current average of 5.3 mpg. [RS -- is DOD included?]
Biofuels. Working closely with USDA, DOE will continue its work in the the
biochemistry of converting wood chips, grasses, agrucultural wastes, and other products
into ethanol and other potentially useful fuels. DOE R&D efforts are seeking to produce
alternative fuels for vehicles, such as ethanol, using agricultural crop waste. The program
has completed the design of a 10 million gallons/year first-of-a-kind refinery for producing
ethanol from biomass. In the upcoming year, it will seek to demonstrate the conversion of
agricultural wastes to ethanol at a small commercial scale using a genetically engineered
fermentative microorganism. [HK] [RS]
INDUSTRY
Industries of the Future. This DOE program works cooperatively with the nation's
most energy-intensive industries -- such as aluminum, glass, chemicals, forest products, mining,
petroleum refining, and steel -- on developing technologies that increase energy and resource
efficiency. Examples of promising collaborative efforts include improvements in the
process of making steel and improvements in the aluminum production process that
could dramatically increase efficiency and eliminate emissions of perfluorocarbons (PFCs), a highly potent
greenhouse gas.
Industrial Cogeneration. DOE is developing new industrial power/cogeneration
systems to capture heat that would otherwise be wasted. These systems are expected
to be 15 percent more energy efficient, 80 percent cleaner than conventional power
systems and cut electricity costs by 10 percent. In addition, EPA and DOE are also
working to eliminate barriers to the rapid dissemination of combined heat and power
technology.
Agriculture. The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) will undertake R&D and
support demonstration projects aimed at both lowering greenhouse gas emissions from
agriculture and reducing agriculture's vulnerability to climate change.
--The Natural Resources Conservation Service will invest $3 million in projects
to demonstrate and test various greenhouse gas mitigation strategies and
monitoring mechanisms, such as compost-based waste-handling facilities,
rotational grazing systems and improved feed and forage systems.
--The Agricultural Research Service will devote $7 million toward the
development of new technology and expertise for reducing agriculture's
[Automated Records Management System Hex-Dump Conversion]
vulnerability to a changing climate. Field experiments will seek to measure
various potential effects of climate change, such as varying amounts and patterns of
rainfall on forage production. Work will also be done on innovative bioenergy
technologies.
ELECTRICITY
Photovoltaic Energy Systems. Over the past 20 years, Federal R&D has resulted in a
90 percent cost reduction in solar photovoltaics. DOE will accelerate R&D of the next
generation photovoltaic cells; increase manufacturing R&D; increase research in
buildings-integrated applications; and fund new efforts to develop unconventional
technological breakthroughs.
- Million Solar Roofs. In June, 1997, the President announced an initiative to encourage the installation
of one million solar systems by 2010, which would reduce carbon emissions equivalent to the annual
emissions from 850,000 cars. DOE has received commitments for over half a million
solar rooftop installations.
Biomass. Biomass refers to trees, crops and agricultural wastes used to produce
power, fuels or chemicals. It represents a tremendous renewable resource whose use can
help strengthen our energy security, protect the environment, and enhance our rural
economy.
-- Biomass Power. DOE is testing and demonstrating biomass co-firing with
coal; developing advanced technologies for biomass gasification using paper
industry by-products; and developing and testing high-yield, low-cost biomass
feedstocks.
-- Developing An Integrated Biomass Industry. This year DOE, USDA, and
other federal agencies and private partners, will launch a national partnership to
develop an integrated biomass industry.
Wind Power. DOE will continue developing a next-generation wind turbine able to
produce power at 2.5 cents per kilowatt-hour in good wind regions, accelerate R&D on
critical components, and accelerate testing and field validation.
Hydrogen. DOE will accelerate research on low-cost hydrogen production and storage,
prerequisites to the widespread use of hydrogen as a fuel.
High Temperature Superconductivity. DOE supports industry-led projects to capitalize
on recent breakthroughs in superconducting wire technology, aimed at developing devices
[Automated Records Management System Hex-Dump Conversion]
such as advanced motors, power cables, and transformers. These technologies would
allow more electricity to reach the consumer without an increase in fossil fuel input. [RS]
CARBON REMOVAL AND SEQUESTRATION
R&D for Removal and Sequestration. Research initiatives are being funded to find ways
to remove carbon dioxide from combustion gases and to sequester (store) carbon.
Examples include:
-- [RS]
-- Enhancing Forest and Farmland Sinks. USDA will spend $6 million for
R&D and demonstration projects for optimizing forest, farmland, and rangeland
carbon sinks. The focus of such projects will include storage of carbon in forest
soils and increased durability and use of wood products to sequester carbon.
-- Enhancing natural geological and oceanic processes. DOE will support
research into the feasibility of capturing and storing carbon dioxide in underground
geological structures or in the deep ocean.
[Automated Records Management System Hex-Dump Conversion]
Other Climate-Related Investments
There are a number of additional programs funded in the FY 2000 budget that -- while not part of
the Climate Change Technology Initiative or the U.S. Global Climate Change Research Program
per se -- contribute to improving energy efficiency and/or reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
These programs include:
Cleaner Coal and Power. The Department of Energy (DOE) supports an aggressive
R&D effort to develop next-generation technologies for coal and gas combustion.
Research and development on two new coal combustion technologies -- integrated
gasification combined cycle and pressurized fluidized bed combustion -- could lead to
ultra-high efficiency coal plants with dramatically lower greenhouse gas emissions.
Low Income Weatherization and State Energy Grants. These DOE programs facilitate
energy efficiency investments at the State and local level. The Weatherization
Assistance Program, for example, delivers energy conservation services, such as
insulation, to low-income Americans, reducing energy costs for consumers, improving
health and safety, and reducing carbon emissions. The total FY 2000 budget request for
these two programs is $191 million -- a $25 million increase over FY 1999 appropriations.
Agricultural & Forestry Conservation Programs. Many U.S. Department of Agriculture
(USDA) conservation programs have the co-benefit of reducing carbon emissions resulting
from agriculture and forestry and enhancing the ability of "sinks," such as forests and farmlands, to
sequester or store carbon. This includes programs such as the Conservation Reserve Program,
the Environmental Quality Incentives Program, and the Farmland Protection Program. In
general, these programs assist farmers, ranchers, and other landowners in conserving and
improving soil, water, and other natural resources associated with rural land.
[Automated Records Management System Hex-Dump Conversion]
U.S. Global Change Research Program
The United States Global Change Research Program (USGCRP) seeks to provide a sound
scientific understanding of both the human and natural forces that influence the Earth's climate
system. The information produced by USGCRP's scientists is used by national and international
policy makers to make informed decisions on global change issues. It is a multi-agency scientific
research program coordinated through the National Science and Technology Council's Committee
on Environment and Natural Resources.
For FY 2000, the President is requesting nearly $1.8 billion for the U.S. Global Change Research
Program, an increase of $105 million, or 6 percent, above FY 1999 estimated budget levels. Of
the FY 2000 budget request, $828 million is for scientific research (up $84 million) and $958
million is for NASA's development of climate monitoring satellites and ground based observation
systems. Other important USGCRP budget highlights include:
Carbon Cycle Initiative. The FY 2000 budget request establishes a new initiative to study
of the role of farms and forests in capturing carbon. Such agricultural carbon "sinks"
may provide the U.S. and other nations with new tools for offsetting greenhouse gas
emissions. The funding will also help scientists better understand carbon sources and
sinks on large geographic and time scales. The initiative includes $10 million in new
funding for the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) and $5 million for the Department
of Energy (DOE). [fix work?]
Soil Carbon Inventory. The FY 2000 budget request includes $13.7 million (an increase
of $12.2 million from FY 1999) for a comprehensive scientific inventory of carbon stored
in U.S. soils and to develop methods to predict how soil carbon levels would be affected by
different practices and policies. The inventory is being conducted by USDA's Natural
Resources Conservation Service. [MW -- check]
3 Dimensional Mapping of Forests. The FY 2000 budget provides funding to launch
NASA's Vegetation Canopy Lidar, which, for the first time, will give scientists a three
dimensional view of the Earth's forests to help determine the contribution of forests in
sequestering atmospheric carbon.
Consequences of Climate Change. The FY 2000 budget provides funding to complete a
report on the first national assessment of the potential consequences of climate change on
the United States. The report will identify potential impacts on key economic sectors and
geographic regions, mitigation and adaptation strategies, and provide technical
information for policy makers.
Regional variability. The FY 2000 budget request includes funding to help scientists
examine climate change and variability on a regional scale. Supported in part by the
Administration's new Information Technology Initiative, the funding will help improve
U.S. computer capabilities to run the complex models required to understand the impacts
[Automated Records Management System Hex-Dump Conversion]
of climate change and variability at the regional scale.

Agriculture and Climate Change
The President's FY2000 Budget Highlights
Carbon sequestration and carbon "sinks" in farmland, rangeland and forests will play a critical role
in helping the world meet the challenge of climate change. Furthermore, the risks of climate
change could have significant impacts on the agricultural sector. Therefore, the President's
FY2000 budget includes $
new funding for R&D and demonstration projects that will help
America's agricultural and forestry industries address climate change while adding new sources of
farm income and new opportunities for rural economic growth. Highlights include:
Biomass and Bioenergy
Biomass -- agricultural wastes used to produce power, fuels or chemicals -- represents a
tremendous, renewable resource whose use can help strengthen our energy security, protect the
environment and revitalize rural America.
Biomass Power and Fuels. DOE is developing and testing high-yield, low-cost biomass
feedstocks, testing and demonstrating biomass cofiring with coal and seeking to produce
alternative fuels, such as ethanol, from biomass.
Integrated Biomass Market. This year, DOE, USDA and other federal agencies and
private partners will launch a national partnership to develop an integrated biomass
industry.
Biomass Tax Credit. The President's tax package proposes to extend for 5 years the
current 1.5 cent per kilowatt hour tax credit for electricity produced from biomass. The
proposal also expands the types of biomass eligible for the credit to include certain
forest-related, agricultural and other resources. Finally, the package includes a 1.0 cent
per kilowatt hour tax credit for electricity produced by cofiring biomass in coal plants.
Sequestration
Demonstration Projects. USDA will spend $6 million on demonstration projects
focused on optimizing farmland, rangeland and forest carbon sinks.

The following is a HEX DUMP:
Research and tax credit programs are aimed at all of the major sources of US
Greenhouse gas emissions. 85% of US greenhouse gas emissions come from the
production and use of energy with buildings, transportation, and industry each
responsible for roughly a
third of the emissions.
Virtually all of the emissions
from transportation result
from burning fuels in cars,
trucks, and other vehicles.
Two thirds of the emissions
from buildings result from
the production of electricity
used to provide lighting, operate refrigerators and other building equipment.
BUILDINGS
Partnership for Advancing Technology in Housing (PATH).
The
Department Housing and Urban Development (HUD), Department of Energy
(DOE), and the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), the Federal
Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) and other agencies are working with
the building industry to develop, demonstrate and deploy housing
technologies that result in attractive, affordable homes. Within a decade,

Ford, GM, and Daimler-Chrysler all have demonstrated
operational concept vehicles using these components. The
original scheduled called for a the team to narrow the focus
of research this year and the partners have elected to
concentrate on hybrids using advanced internal combustion
engines and fuel cell vehicles. This year's work will focus
government work on key components of these designs. It
will also strengthen programs designed to ensure that any
[Automated Records Management System Hex-Dump Conversion]
concept developed will be capable of meeting any required
air quality standards. The industry partners are
concentrating on combining these components into
functioning prototype designs. program aims to produce a
prototype mid-sized family car capable of 80 miles per
gallon (mpg) with a two-thirds reduction in carbon
emissions by 2004. [HK] [RS][$$]
Biofuels. Fuels manufactured from farm and forest
products can power cars and trucks without contributing any
net greenhouse gases. Working closely with the
Department of Agriculture, DoE will continue its work in
the biochemistry of converting wood chips, grasses,
agricultural wastes, and other products into ethanol and
other potentially useful fuels. Improved genetic
engineering techniques make it possible to improve the
performance of the microorganisms which break down
cellulose and convert the products to alcohol. Previous
research has resulted in technologies ready to be tested on a
significant scale. Work has been completed on the design
for producing 10 million gallons/year of ethanol from
biomass using an innovative new production concept and
DOE R&D efforts are seeking to produce alternative fuels
for vehicles, such as ethanol, using agricultural crop waste.
The program has completed the design of a 10 million
