Abstract: Under this program, $1.3 billion in Recovery Funds will be supporting projects similar in technical and management risks, complexity and potential contribution as projects funded under the Clean Coal Power Initiative (CCPI) which received approval from OMB for monthly reporting in 2008. The availability of project progress against cost and schedule milestones, performance metrics, and other measure will help mitigate the risks inherent to projects integrating sophisticated technologies on a commercial scale for the first time.

Emergency Justfication: DOE requests the emergency approval of these ICRs due to the timely nature of DOE’s investments made under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (Recovery Act). The Recovery Act appropriated $36.7 billion to DOE with the goal of stimulating the U.S. economy and creating jobs in a timely fashion. These weighty goals elevate the importance of the investments and demand a higher level of oversight and information.
