DocumentJuly 16, 2001The Department of Energy (Department) has the strategic objective of reducing the vulnerability of the U.S. economy to disruptions in energy supplies. As one way of meeting this objective, the Department has had a biomass-to-ethanol (biomass) conversion program for several years. Working under the Assistant Secretary for Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy, the Office of Fuels Development manages the biomass program, which had a goal to build a full-scale commercial biomass production facility by 2000. To meet this goal, the Department awarded financial assistance to two firms during 1997 and 1998. This assistance was provided through cost-sharing cooperative agreements. One firm has received $4 million and the other has received $10.95 million. The Office of Fuels Development indicated that these were the only two awards that could have led to meeting its program goal.§Office of Inspector General

DocumentJuly 10, 2001The Department of Energy (Department), as a result of budget reduction and Government-wide downsizing goals, reduced Federal staff by about 24 percent between 1995 and 1998. This massive downsizing created mission-critical staffing needs in a number of technical areas. As of May 2001, the Department's Federal workforce consisted of about 9,900 permanent employees, including about 4,600 scientific and technical staff. In a November 2000 report, the Office of Inspector General identified Human Capital as one of the most significant challenges facing the Department. The purpose of this audit was to determine whether the Department has been able to recruit and retain scientific and technical personnelOffice of Inspector General
