Book Capital Financing  Alternative Approaches to Budgeting for Federal Real Property

Download or read book Capital Financing Alternative Approaches to Budgeting for Federal Real Property written by U.s. Government Accountability Office and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2017-07-26 with total page 52 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: " Federal real property projects are fully funded when Congress provides budget authority and appropriations for the estimated full cost of the projects up front-at the time they are undertaken. However, as agencies work to balance limited resources with mission demands, many have turned to approaches other than full upfront funding to acquire, renovate, or dispose of federal real property, such as buildings, structures, and land. GAO was asked to review alternative models for managing federal real property. This report examines (1) agency experiences funding federal real property projects, (2) some of the alternative funding mechanisms selected agencies use, as well as agency experiences using selected mechanisms, and (3) alternative budgetary structures within the current unified budget that may potentially help Congress and agencies better recognize the cost of real property projects and associated returns, promoting both transparency and fiscal control. GAO reviewed case study projects from 4 agencies among the top 10 in federal real property holdings and chosen based on their use of alternative funding mechanisms, as identified in our past and ongoing work. Finally, GAO identified alternative budgetary structures that may support real property projects and principles for considering them by reviewing published reports and interviewing federal budget staff and experts."

It was established as part of the Fraud Enforcement and Recovery Act of 2009. The commission consisted of private citizens with expertise in economics and finance, banking, housing, market regulation, and consumer protection. They examined and reported on "the collapse of major financial institutions that failed or would have failed if not for exceptional assistance from the government."News Dissector DANNY SCHECHTER is a journalist, blogger and filmmaker.

Book EnergySmart Schools National Financing Roundtable

Download or read book EnergySmart Schools National Financing Roundtable written by US Department of Energy, Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 7 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As a follow-up to the release of its "Guide to Financing EnergySmart Schools", the U.S. Department of Energy's EnergySmart Schools program hosted the National Financing Roundtable on February 5, 2009. This event was held prior to the seventh Annual High Performance Schools Symposium, hosted by the Council of Educational Facility Planners International (CEFPI) on February 6-7, 2009 in Tampa, Florida. The purpose of the National Financing Roundtable was to bring together individuals with diverse knowledge of school building projects to discuss financing issues and options that build upon those described in the "Guide to Financing EnergySmart Schools." This document summarizes the discussion that took place during the roundtable. It provides an overview of the financing opportunities, challenges, and activities involved in achieving high-performance schools, as identified by the participants. The discussion has been organized into five key outcomes: (1) Identify creative funding mechanisms and low-cost or no-cost projects to help achieve energy efficiency in schools. Energy efficiency can be reached through small efforts when funding is limited as well as through large investments when funding is available; (2) Recognize that energy savings performance contracts (ESPCs) are solutions that require a strong partnership with an energy service company (ESCO), a clear understanding of the cost avoidance (savings) guarantee language, and annual measurement and verification (M&V); (3) Become better-educated and more aware decision makers in relation to energy-efficiency projects by discussing all financial and technical issues with stakeholders. Learn to reorganize the current district-level budgetary system to better recognize and account for savings from energy-efficiency measures; (4) Encourage and gain community, teacher, and student involvement in and support about energy-efficiency projects. This will increase awareness about these issues, pressure legislators to provide funding, and start a culture of social responsibility; and (5) Create clear policies at federal and state levels to provide quick incentives to districts investing in energy-efficiency projects.

This book was released on 2007-07-30 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Because of the important national defense contribution of large, non-fighter aircraft, rapidly increasing fuel costs and increasing dependence on imported oil have triggered significant interest in increased aircraft engine efficiency by the U.S. Air Force. To help address this need, the Air Force asked the National Research Council (NRC) to examine and assess technical options for improving engine efficiency of all large non-fighter aircraft under Air Force command. This report presents a review of current Air Force fuel consumption patterns; an analysis of previous programs designed to replace aircraft engines; an examination of proposed engine modifications; an assessment of the potential impact of alternative fuels and engine science and technology programs, and an analysis of costs and funding requirements.

We print the paperback book so you don't have to. First you gotta find a good clean (legible) copy and make sure it's the latest version (not always easy). Some documents found on the web are missing some pages or the image quality is so poor, they are difficult to read. If you find a good copy, you could print it using a network printer you share with 100 other people (typically its either out of paper or toner). If it's just a 10-page document, no problem, but if it's 250-pages, you will need to punch 3 holes in all those pages and put it in a 3-ring binder. Takes at least an hour. It's much more cost-effective to just order the bound paperback from Amazon.com This book includes original commentary which is copyright material. Note that government documents are in the public domain. We print these paperbacks as a service so you don't have to. The books are compact, tightly-bound paperback, full-size (8 1/2 by 11 inches), with large text and glossy covers. 4th Watch Publishing Co. is a HUBZONE SDVOSB. https: //usgovpub.com
