Report #: SR/OIAF/2002-04
Release date: March 2002

This report analyzes the provisions of S. 1766 and H.R. 4 that
pertain to research, development, and deployment goals for a
range of energy technologies. Specific draft language is taken
from S. 1766. A quantitative description is offered for some of
the goals and programs, while the remaining provisions are
discussed qualitatively. Following the discussion of research
and development, two separate topic areas are analyzed:
the Price-Anderson Act (S.1766, Sec. 501-508, H.R. 2983) and
Hydro Relicensing (S.1766, Sec. 301-308, H.R. 4, Sec. 401-402).
