SUMMARY: The Department of Energy (DOE), Golden Field Office, through 
the Chicago Support Office, announces, pursuant to DOE Financial 
Assistance Rules 10 CFR 600.14 (f), its intent to award a grant to the 
University of Illinois at Chicago, Energy Resources Center. The purpose 
of the grant is to provide partial funding to underwrite the cost of

Institutions.''

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The University of Illinois at Chicago, 
Energy Resources Center has proposed organizing a consortium involving 
many of Chicago's best known and most frequently visited cultural arts 
institutions. The purpose of this consortium is to provide these 
institutions with a forum to increase the awareness and facilitate the 
use of energy efficiency technologies and practices. The consortium 
will leverage public and private expertise and resources to accomplish 
this objective. Activities of the consortium will include the 
development and execution of energy conservation facility management 
workshops, an invitational conference for representatives of all 
Chicago area cultural arts institutions and the development of a 
communications network for ongoing information sharing.
    The unsolicited application for support of this activity has been 
accepted by DOE as a result of DOE's determination that the proposed 
activity is meritorious, likely to be effective and successful, and 
offers a unique opportunity for DOE to advance its mission of deploying 
and demonstrating the use of energy efficiency technologies and 
practices in highly visible settings. The project period for the award 
is twelve months, expected to begin September 1994. DOE plans to 
provide funding in the amount of $10,000. This award will not be made 
for at least 14 calendar days after publication of this notice to allow 
for public comment.
