The man- agers on the part of the House will offer a motion to recede and concur in the amendment of the Senate which provides $12,400,000 for man- agement of lands and resources, to be derived by transfer from the Office of Coal Research.

They are not for the conduct of lease sales. The revised Outer Continental Shelf leasing plan which was re- cently announced by the Department of the Interior retreats from the original ten million acre leasing target and focuses instead on a schedule which will provide leasing in a maximum number of new "frontier" areas in calendar year 1975. However, there are concerns which were expressed in the House report on the Department of the Interior and Related Agencies Appropriations Bill, 1975 (H. Rept. 93-1209) and concurred in by the Senate Report (S. Rept. 93-1069). Approved For Release 2001/11/16 : CIA-RDP76M00527R000700020013-8 Approved For Release 2001/11/16 : CIA-RDP76M00527R000700020013-8 16 Environmental protection is only one of the, factors which concerns the Committees. There is also concern about equipment and personnel shortages, expeditious exploration and development, fair market value from lease sales, availability of capital, and others. The Department has not yet presented persuasive evidence that these concerns have been satisfied, yet it is proceeding with major lease proposals. The Committee is pleased that these questions are currently being ex- plored, in part or in whole, by the General Accounting Office and by the Congressional Office of Technology Assessment. It is essential that before these leases are made, sufficient knowledge is available to assure that adequate environmental safeguards are maintained. For these reasons, the conferees have agreed to the budget proposal which was included in the Senate amendment. The conferees are in agreement that before a "notice of sale" is made for a lease sale in any frontier area in calendar year 1975, the De- partment of the Interior shall consult the Interior Appropriations Subcommittees of the House and the Senate to assure that the con- cerns outlined in H. Rept. 93-1209 have been satisfactorily addressed. In the meantime, studies can be initiated for leasing in frontier areas with funds provided in this Supplemental Appropriations Bill.
