Energy Efficiency and Conservation Block Grant. The Kiowa Tribe of Oklahoma proposes to 1) conduct energy audits at tribal members housing, provide advice to tribal members, and develop plans for families to reduce energy wasted; attend training classes for conducting audits and providing training to tribal members; purchase equipment to sustain a viable energy audit program; and develop a plan for conducting tribal housing audits; and 2) install wind turbines (approximately 10 kilowatts) at the Kiowa Tribal Headquarters Building (1978/79) and the Kiowa Head Start Classroom Building (1984). The wind turbines will feed wind-generated electrical power to the buildings only and not the grid system. The turbines will be installed on a 100-foot tower in a previously disturbed area which will be located approximately 15 miles from a wind farm which has over one hundred 1.65 megawatt wind turbines.
