SUMMARY: The U.S. Department of Energy, Idaho Operations Office, 
announces that pursuant to the DOE Financial Assistance Rules 10 CFR 
600.7, it intends to renew Grant Number DE-FG07-91ID13134 to the State 
of Idaho, Department of Health and Welfare. The proposed grant will 
continue funding the performance of state oversight responsibilities in 
support of an Interagency Agreement (IAG) under the Comprehensive 
Environmental Response Compensation, and Liability Act (CERCLA) 42 
U.S.C. 9601 et seq. The grant will provide the state with the means to 
perform a substantive role in overseeing DOE's compliance with 
environmental laws during environmental restoration activities at the 
Idaho National Engineering Laboratory (INEL). The IAG for the INEL is 
the Federal Facilities Agreement and Consent Order (FFA/CO) signed

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Ginger L. Sandwina, U.S. Department of 
Energy, Idaho Operations Office, 850 Energy Drive, MS 1221, Idaho 
Falls, Idaho 83401-1563, [phone].

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The statutory authorities for the proposed 
award are 42 U.S.C. 2011 et seq., Atomic Energy Act of 1954 as amended 
and Public Law 95-41, Department of Energy Organization Act. The 
proposed award meets the criteria for ``non-competitive'' financial 
assistance as set forth in 10 CFR 600.7(b)(2)(i)(C). The applicant is a 
unit of government and the activity to be supported is related to 
performance of a governmental function within the subject jurisdiction, 
thereby precluding DOE provision of support to another entity. The 
grant will cover a five (5) year period and carry the activity through 
calendar year 1999. The total estimated amount of the grant is 
$5,000,000 with each year estimated to be approximately $1,000,000. The 
various environmental activities will continue to be in compliance with 
the FFA/CO in the future as a result of the agreement.
