Abstract:

The author, Deputy Assistant Secretary for Energy Emergencies, U.S. Department of Energy, discusses the federal viewpoint on energy contingency planning for transportation in urban areas. He includes issues such as responsibility, cooperation, innovation, and looking ahead to find solutions for today's problems. He concludes that the Department of Energy's goal is to reduce the vulnerability of this nation's to energy supply disruptions through primary reliance on the marketplace, coupled with the use of the Strategic Petroleum Reserve and other market-based responses to energy emergencies.
