(3) Preferences for award To ensure reduced carbon dioxide emissions, the Secretary shall take necessary actions to provide for the integration of the program under this paragraph with the large-scale car- bon dioxide sequestration tests described in section 16293(c) of this title. These actions should not delay implementation of these tests. The Secretary shall give priority consid- eration to projects with the following charac- teristics: (A) Capacity Projects that will capture a high percent- age of the carbon dioxide in the treated stream and large volumes of carbon dioxide as determined by the Secretary. (B) Sequestration Projects that capture carbon dioxide from industrial sources that are near suitable ge- ological reservoirs and could continue se- questration including— (i) a field testing validation activity under section 16293 of this title; or (ii) other geologic sequestration projects approved by the Secretary. (4) Requirement For projects that generate carbon dioxide that is to be sequestered, the carbon dioxide stream shall be of a sufficient purity level to allow for safe transport and sequestration. (5) Cost-sharing The cost-sharing requirements of section 16352 of this title for research and development projects shall apply to this section. (b) Authorization of appropriations There is authorized to be appropriated to the Secretary to carry out this section $200,000,000 per year for fiscal years 2009 through 2013. (Pub.

42 U.S.C. § 300f — Definitions

For purposes of this subchapter: (1) The term “primary drinking water regulation” means a regulation which— (A) applies to public water systems; (B) specifies contaminants which, in the judgment of the Administrator, may have any adverse effect on the health of persons; (C) specifies for each such contaminant either— (i) a maximum contaminant level, if, in the judgment of the Administrator, it is economically and technologically feasible to ascertain the level of such contaminant in water in public water systems, or (ii) if, in the judgment of the Administrator, it is not economically or technologically feasible to so ascertain the level of such contaminant, each treatment technique known to the Administrator which leads to a reduction in the level of such contaminant sufficient to satisfy the requirements of [section 300g–1 of this title](https://uscode.house.gov/view.xhtml?req=granuleid:USC-prelim-title42-section300g-1&num=0&edition=prelim); and (D) contains criteria and procedures to assure a supply of drinking water which dependably complies with such maximum contaminant levels; including accepted methods for quality control and testing procedures to insure compliance with such levels and to insure proper operation and maintenance of the system, and requirements as to (i) the minimum quality of water which may be taken into the system and (ii) siting for new facilities for public water systems. At any time after promulgation of a regulation referred to in this paragraph, the Administrator may add equally effective quality control and testing procedures by guidance published in the Federal Register. Such procedures shall be treated as an alternative for public water systems to the quality control and testing procedures listed in the regulatio
