The Secretary must create a comprehensive wind research and technology plan with three program periods and send initial and yearly detailed updates to Congress.
(a) The Secretary* must prepare a comprehensive management plan for research, development, demonstrations, and technology applications under this chapter. Activities must follow it. It must include a five-year small-system program, an eight-year large-system program, and a three-year wind-resource-assessment program consistent with sections 9204–9206. The Secretary must consult NASA, Interior, and other appropriate agencies and public or private organizations. (b) The Secretary must send the plan to the House Science and Technology Committee and Senate Energy and Natural Resources Committee within nine months after September 8, 1980. (c) With each later presidential annual budget, the Secretary must send Congress a detailed current plan, needed revisions, changed circumstances, and, for each program, changes in (1) objectives, (2) program elements, management, activities, regional aspects, and field duties, (3) strategies, technology plans, and next-year milestones, (4) significant economic, environmental, and social effects, (5) estimated cost of each item, and (6) Federal and non-Federal financial contributions. The description must justify changes, describe progress toward chapter goals, report interagency cooperation, and give legislative or other recommendations.
The Secretary* shall prepare a comprehensive program management plan for the research, development, demonstration, and technology application activities to carry out the purposes of this chapter. The program activities shall be conducted in accordance with such comprehensive plan which shall include—
a five-year program for small wind energy systems,
an eight-year program for large wind energy systems, and
a three-year program for wind resource assessment 1
which shall be consistent with the provisions of sections 9204, 9205, and 9206 of this title. In the preparation of such plan, the Secretary shall consult with the Administrator* of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration, the Secretary of the Interior, and the heads of such other Federal agencies and such public and private organizations as he deems appropriate.
The Secretary shall transmit the comprehensive program management plan to the Committee on Science and Technology of the House of Representatives and the Committee on Energy and Natural Resources of the Senate within nine months after September 8, 1980.
Concurrently with the submission of the President’s annual budget to the Congress for each year after the year in which the comprehensive plan is initially transmitted under subsection (b), the Secretary shall transmit to the Congress a detailed description of the comprehensive plan as then in effect, setting forth the modifications which may be necessary to appropriately revise such plan and any changes in circumstances which may have occurred since the plan or the last previous modification thereof was transmitted in accordance with this section. The detailed description of the comprehensive plan under this subsection shall include but need not be limited to a statement setting forth with respect to each of the programs under this chapter any changes in—
the anticipated research, development, demonstration, and technology application objectives to be achieved by the program;
the program elements, management structure, and activities, including any regional aspects and field responsibilities thereof;
the program strategies and technology applications plans, including detailed mile- stone goals to be achieved during the next fiscal year for all major activities and projects;
any significant economic, environmental, and societal effects which the program may have;
the total estimated cost of individual program items; and
the estimated relative financial contributions of the Federal Government and non-Federal participants in the program.
Such description shall also include a detailed justification of any such changes, a detailed description of the progress made toward achieving the goals of this chapter, a statement on the status of interagency cooperation in meeting such goals, and any legislative or other recommendations which the Secretary may have to help attain such goals.
