Author Description

Excerpt from Funding Department of Energy Research and Development in a Constrained Budget Environment Furthermore, you really ought to pay recoupment. You ought to really pay us back the part the government put in with a profit after a certain time period. Ultimately, we finally, in the Energy and Policy Act of 1992, we did get cost-sharing put into legislation for supposedly anything the Department of Energy does. We did not get recoupment in there. We only got the cost-sharing part in. The cost-sharing part, we got what we got in there, but we also got, probably in hindsight, too much in the waiver, and to much in the way Of waiver authority in there, to where you really could pretty well - the Congress said in one line, Recoup the cost, and in the next line said: However, you know, for any reason al most under the sun, you can waive that necessity of doing that. There again you go back to the prevailing mood Of the Department, and obviously the people who want this, which is not to pay.
