**(a) Conduct of overall management responsibilities** The Secretary of Energy shall have overall management responsibility for carrying out the program under [section 2703 of this title](https://uscode.house.gov/view.xhtml?req=granuleid:USC-prelim-title15-section2703&num=0&edition=prelim). In carrying out such program, the Secretary of Energy, consistent with such overall management responsibility— (1) shall utilize the expertise of the Department of Transportation to the extent deemed appropriate by the Secretary of Energy; and (2) may utilize any other Federal agency (except as provided in paragraph (1)) in accordance with subsection (c) in carrying out any activities under this chapter, to the extent that the Secretary of Energy determines that any such agency has capabilities which would allow such agency to contribute to the purposes of this chapter. **(b) Exercise of powers by Secretary of Transportation** The Secretary of Transportation, whenever the expertise of the Department of Transportation is utilized in accordance with subsection (a), may exercise the powers granted to the Secretary of Energy under subsection (c) and shall enter into contracts and make grants for such purpose, subject to the overall management responsibility of the Secretary of Energy. **(c) Requests for assistance of Federal departments, etc.** The Secretary of Energy may, in accordance with subsection (a), obtain the assistance of any department, agency, or instrumentality of the executive branch of the Federal Government upon written request, on a reimbursable basis or otherwise and with the consent of such department, agency, or instrumentality. Each such request shall identify the assistance the Secretary of Energy deems necessary to carry out any duty under this chapter. **(d) Consultations with Administrator of Environmental Protection Agency and Secretary of Transportation; establishment of procedures for periodic consultation with interested groups; establishment and functions of advisory panels** The Secretary of Energy shall consult with the Administrator of the Environmental Protection Agency and the Secretary of Transportation, and shall establish procedures for periodic consultation with representatives of science, industry, and such other groups as may have special expertise in the area of automobile propulsion system research, development, and technology. The Secretary of Energy may establish such advisory panels as he deems appropriate to review and make recommendations with respect to applications for funding under this chapter. **(e) Responsibilities under other Federal automotive research, development, and demonstration provisions unaffected** Nothing contained in this chapter shall be construed to reduce in any way the responsibilities of the Secretary of Energy for automotive research, development, and demonstration under the Energy Reorganization Act of 1974 ([42 U.S.C. 5801](https://uscode.house.gov/view.xhtml?req=granuleid:USC-prelim-title42-section5801&num=0&edition=prelim) et seq.) and the Federal Nonnuclear Energy Research and Development Act of 1974 ([42 U.S.C. 5901](https://uscode.house.gov/view.xhtml?req=granuleid:USC-prelim-title42-section5901&num=0&edition=prelim) et seq.).

42 U.S.C. § 5801 — Sex discrimination prohibited

No person shall on the ground of sex be excluded from participation in, be denied a license under, be denied the benefits of, or be subjected to discrimination under any program or activity carried on or receiving Federal assistance under any subchapter of this chapter. This provision will be enforced through agency provisions and rules similar to those already established, with respect to racial and other discrimination, under title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 [[42 U.S.C. 2000d](https://uscode.house.gov/view.xhtml?req=granuleid:USC-prelim-title42-section2000d&num=0&edition=prelim) et seq.].

15 U.S.C. § 2703 — Advanced systems program implementation by Secretary of Energy

**(a) Establishment and conduct of program** The Secretary of Energy shall establish, within the Department of Energy, a program to insure the development of advanced automobile propulsion systems within 5 years after February 25, 1978, or within the shortest practicable time, consistent with appropriate research and development technique. In conducting such program, the Secretary of Energy shall— (1) establish and conduct new projects and accelerate existing projects which may contribute to the development of advanced automobile propulsion systems; (2) give priority attention to the development of advanced propulsion systems with appropriate attention to those advanced propulsion systems which are flexible in the type of fuel used; and (3) insure that research and development under this chapter supplements, but neither supplants nor duplicates, the automotive research and development efforts of private industry. **(b) Contracts and grants with Federal agencies, laboratories, etc.** The Secretary of Energy shall, in fulfilling his responsibilities under this chapter, make contracts and grants with any Federal agency, laboratory, university, nonprofit organization, industrial organization, public or private agency, institution, organization, corporation, partnership, or individual for research and development leading to advanced automobile propulsion systems which are likely to help meet the Nation’s long-term goals with respect to fuel economy, environmental protection, and other objectives. **(c) Federal laboratories; priority for financial assistance; functions** In providing financial assistance under this chapter, the Secretary of Energy shall give full consideration to the capabilities of Federal laboratories, except that not more than 60 per centum of the fun

42 U.S.C. § 5901 — Congressional statement of findings

The Congress hereby finds that— **(a)** The Nation is suffering from a shortage of environmentally acceptable forms of energy. **(b)** Compounding this energy shortage is our past and present failure to formulate a comprehensive and aggressive research and development program designed to make available to American consumers our large domestic energy reserves including fossil fuels, nuclear fuels, geothermal resources, solar energy, and other forms of energy. This failure is partially because the unconventional energy technologies have not been judged to be economically competitive with traditional energy technologies. **(c)** The urgency of the Nation’s energy challenge will require commitments similar to those undertaken in the Manhattan and Apollo projects; it will require that the Nation undertake a research, development, and demonstration program in nonnuclear energy technologies with a total Federal investment which may reach or exceed $20,000,000,000 over the next decade. **(d)** In undertaking such program, full advantage must be taken of the existing technical and managerial expertise in the various energy fields within Federal agencies and particularly in the private sector. **(e)** The Nation’s future energy needs can be met if a national commitment is made now to dedicate the necessary financial resources, to enlist our scientific and technological capabilities, and to accord the proper priority to developing new nonnuclear energy options to serve national needs, conserve vital resources, and protect the environment.
