of energy from The Geysers geothermal field. The Federal Domestic 
Catalog Number is 81.087.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The statutory authority for the proposed 
award is the Geothermal Energy Research, Development and Demonstration 
Act (Pub. L. 93-410); the Department of Energy Organization Act (Pub. 
L. 95-91); and the Energy and Water Development Appropriation Bill of 
1993 (Pub. L. 102-377). The proposal meets the criteria for ``non-
competitive'' financial assistance set forth in 10 CFR part 
600.7(b)(2)(i)(C). The applicant represents a unit of government and 
the activity to be supported is related to the performance of a 
government function within the subject jurisdiction. The County of Lake 
is the leader of this project and is the appropriate agency to prepare

from the county wastewater treatment plant to The Geysers. The 
anticipated total project period to be awarded is twelve (12) months. 
The Office of Utility Technologies has provided $1,450,000 to the DOE, 
Idaho Operations Office for support of this project. Lake County will 
provide $20,000. The total estimated cost of this project is 
$1,470,000.
