DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY
 

Financial Assistance Award: Dr. Carl A. MacCarley

AGENCY: Department of Energy.

ACTION: Notice of intent.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The U.S. Department of Energy announces that pursuant to 10 
CFR 600.6(a)(2) it is making a financial assistance award under Grant 
Number DE-FG01-94CE15583 to Dr. Carl A. MacCarley. The proposed grant 
will provide funding in the estimated amount of $99,886 by the 
Department of Energy for the purpose of saving energy through 
development of an indirect sensing technique for closed-loop diesel 
fuel quantity control.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Department of Energy has determined in 
accordance with 10 CFR 600.14(e)(1) that the unsolicited application 
for financial assistance submitted by Dr. Carl A. MacCarley is 
meritorious based on the general evaluation required by 10 CFR 
600.14(d) and the proposed project represents a unique idea that would 
not be eligible for financial assistance under a recent, current or 
planned solicitation. The inventor, Dr. Carl A. MacCarley, who will be 
principal investigator, will use his existing facilities for 
electronics development and vehicle system fitting. In addition 
preliminary testing will be done at California State Polytechnic 
University by special arrangements. The proposed project is not 
eligible for financial assistance under a recent, current or planned 
solicitation because the funding program, the Energy Related Invention 
Program (ERIP), has been structured since its beginning in 1975 to 
operate without competitive solicitations because the authorizing 
legislation directs ERIP to provide support for worthy ideas submitted 
by the public. The program has never issued and has no plans to issue a 
competitive solicitation.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Please write the U.S. Department of 
Energy, Office of Placement and Administration, ATTN: Rose Mason, HR-
531.23, 1000 Independence Ave., S.W., Washington, D.C. 20585.
    The anticipated term of the proposed grant is 18 months from the 
date of award.

    Issued in Washington, D.C. on July 15, 1994.

Contracting Officer, Office of Placement and Administration.
