DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY
Notice of a Class Deviation To Waive Federal Register Notices of
Financial Assistance Awards To Help Meet Special Power and Propulsion
Needs for Future Space Missions
AGENCY: U.S. Department of Energy.
ACTION: Notice of class deviation from 10 CFR 600.14(f).
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: Pursuant to 10 CFR 600.4, Deviations, the Department of Energy
has authorized a class deviation from 10 CFR 14(f) which requires a
Federal Register Notice of each financial assistance award. This
deviation applies exclusively to applications received in response to a
Notice of Program Interest (NOPI) entitled Invitation for Proposals
Designed to Support Federal Agencies and Commercial Interests in
Meeting Special Power and Propulsion Needs for Future Space Missions
(58 FR 63931, December 3, 1993) which was published by the Department
of Energy. Applications submitted in response to the NOPI were accepted
through January 31, 1994.
The intent of publishing notification of financial assistance
awards is to foster competition and provide information regarding
subcontracting opportunities. However, a Notice of Program Opportunity
has already served as notice to interested applicants, and no
subcontracting opportunities have been identified. Additionally, due to
programmatic requirements, it is important that awards be made as soon
as possible. Therefore, the Department of Energy has determined,
pursuant to 10 CFR 600.4, that a deviation from the requirement to
publish a Federal Register Notice of each such award is (1) Necessary
to achieve program objectives, (2) necessary to conserve public funds.

Placement and Administration, Attn: Mr. Nick Graham, HR-531.23, 1000
