In support of this goal, the FEMP Program Manager chairs the Interagency Task Force (Task Force). The Task Force was created by the Federal Energy Management Improvement Act of 1988 (Pub.

The Task Force is composed of Federal energy managers. The purpose of these public Town Hall meetings is to present information related to Federal energy management and reporting requirements. The meetings may also present an opportunity for public comment on activities related to Federal energy management. The Task Force establishes working groups to address specific technical or programmatic issues and to develop new initiatives. It also serves as a forum for sharing lessons learned across Federal agencies.
