The Atomic Energy Commission (AEC) is interested in receiving comments, recommendations and suggestions concerning arrangements appropriate to conduct during FY 1975 and into the early 1980's of research and development work and pilot projects aimed at establishing the technical, economic and practical feasibility of electric and non-electric power production from geothermal resources, including possible cooperative programs between the AEC and other organizations. Responses received will be utilized in the further development of AEC's long-range geothermal program plan. The geothermal program objective is to stimulate and facilitate early and significant commercial utilization of these resources. This program is a part of the national geothermal energy research and development effort and is designed to contribute toward meeting overall national energy needs
