Report to Congress on Contracting Approaches to Coal Gasification

Abstract

Senate Report 109-254, to accompany the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2007, requests the Secretary of Defense review the merits of specific contracting approaches to coal gasification technology projects and submit a report on the findings by March 1, 2007. The report requests: "(1) an assessment on whether longer-term contracts would be required to effectively implement such projects; (2) an assessment on whether energy savings performance contracts would be an appropriate contracting vehicle for such projects; and (3) a discussion of statutory and budgetary impediments, if any, that may prevent the Department from effectively implementing coal gasification technology projects and recommendations for new authorities necessary to enable the effective implementation of such projects."
