Page 408 - We believe such a ban must be viewed in the context of a time when we do not need to depend on nuclear deterrence to ensure international security and stability and when we have achieved broad, deep, and verifiable arms reductions, substantially improved verification capabilities, expanded confidence-building measures, and greater balance of conventional forces.
Page 71 - The interest rate to be used in plan formulation and evaluation for discounting future benefits and computing costs, or otherwise converting benefits and costs to a common time basis, shall be based upon the average yield during the preceding fiscal year on interest-bearing marketable securities of the United States which, at the time the computation is made, have terms of 15 years or more remaining to maturity: Provided, however, That in no event shall the rate be raised or lowered more than one-quarter...
Page 440 - Programs for the express purpose of providing a research and development facility to demonstrate the safe disposal of radioactive wastes resulting from the defense activities and programs of the United States exempted from regulation by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission.

This upgraded computing capability is required to analyze the large volume of new physics data coming from the Tevatron program. This request also provides $5.8 million for General Plant Projects at Brookhaven National Laboratory which are required to keep the general plant (eg, buildings, roads and utilities) in good operating condition.
Page 232 - These raw materials, or •feedstocks, can be converted into fuels by thermochemical or biochemical processes, or can be combusted to produce steam, heat, or electricity. Biofuels currently supply 2.8 quads, or approximately 4% of US energy needs, primarily from the combustion of wood. Although this amount of energy is noteworthy, current applications do not exploit the major potential of this unique resource: its ability to produce liquid and gaseous fuels, the energy products this Nation needs...

The Plan also recognized the importance of the Fusion program — a complex scientific effort directed at a practical application. This Plan has been accepted by both the Congress and the technical community.
Page 268 - Brookhaven's National Synchrotron Light Source (NSLS). The scattered light emerges with a much higher energy than it started with (thus becoming gamma rays with an energy of 300 million electron volts) as a result of the collisions with the electrons. By detecting the electrons from the NSLS beam which have been hit by the light, scientists can select a beam of gamma rays of the appropriate energy for use in experiments. LEGS is unmatched in the intensity and purity of the gamma ray beam it will...
