So now we will be able to access ESPCs and UESC for energy conservation (and some RE), the MATOC for large (10MW or greater) for renewable energy. The indication that the Army gets this is a new game and that they must now attract investment vice pay the bills was the announcement of the intent to lift some of the burden of NEPA. The EITF proposes to use the Army Environmental Command to conduct do the EIS, relieve industry of this time and cost burden. Army Engineering and Support Center in Huntsville (CEHNC), Alabama intends to solicit and award multiple, indefinite delivery, indefinite quantity (ID/IQ) contracts for use in competing and awarding Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) task orders”. The RFP will be for a Multiple Award Task Order Contracting (MATOC) for power purchase agreements supported by enhanced use leases. The goal is to award that contract by early 2013 and then go after twenty three, currently identified projects almost nationwide.

RFP in early 12, award in early 13, then off to the races. And if climate change is one of your concerns, then the linkage goes even deeper. Web DevelopmentIf you own an e-commerce business or even have been even remotely involved with one, you’d know that Magento is the preferred name when it comes to frameworks for developing a digital store. Unless Social Security comes up with some new process these claimants can’t file new claims while these adjudications are proceeding. VPN comes in two forms: SSL VPN and IPSec VPN. Ms Snider spoke with everyone who is anybody in the Defense energy market (and some nobodies) in a two part piece. The relevancy of estimates generated with the presumption of current economic factors continuing for nearly two decades is suspect to say the least. ○ Possibly a snapshot file generated by nwjc (ref. We usually say ‘attack’ so you can see what would happen,” he said. If the local utility can switch off the power generation, there is no energy security.

You wonder if that is a function of local utility requirements or no good ideas. That being said, unless there is a capacity to store intermittent energy, to decouple load from source and to provide the physical/cyber security necessary in a local distribution system, you do not have energy security. It will be difficult, but not impossible, to get third party financing for secure distribution systems alone. Latest alarm systems are based on the concept of Geo-fencing. The choices are to incorporate them into these large RE projects or get funding to install them separately. We have so much to work on; let’s not let our insecurities get in the way of really improving our nation’s energy security. This will allow the Army to take credit, literally, for consuming RE, but could affect the ability to get financing. One of the tidbits tossed out was that the Army intends to keep some of the RECs. One of the things the TF has figured out is that communications will be the key to success. All the new people will line up in formation at this area for a week or 2, and eventually you’ll be let out with the 500 or so other people in the squadron to mingle after class every day.

SSA detailed people throughout the country and moved a huge amount of equipment around to assist people in receiving their benefits after the hurricanes. GAO would have a person who has engaged in a UWA ineligible for Social Security disability benefits for the rest of their life! “We’re not a benefits provider. It is also highly likely that Prince and Flynn have had dealings with Boykin during his tenure as Deputy Undersecretary of Defense for Intelligence as well. For Dr. Dorothy Robyn, Deputy Under Secretary of Defense for Installations and Environment, it is all about the triple bottom-line: energy efficiency, expand renewable energy and improve power security. For thinktankers like the Heritage Foundation’s Jack Spencer it is about operational capacity, while for ASD, Homeland Defense Paul Stockton it about resilience in the face of attacks on the national grid. The National Environmental Policy Act makes federal agencies integrate environmental impacts into their decision about proposed actions. If you build outside the gate, the State may not require the EIS; the Federal government does. It is important to remember that EITF is there to drain the swamp (energy security), something a Gator like Mr. Lushetsky should understand. When asked about this, Mr. Kidd indicated that it was not part of the EITF charter.
