WAP: The Federal Perspective



• DOE Vision– Ensure that ARRA investments build better, stronger weatherization

network to provide the foundation for a national energy efficiency retrofit market

– Seize the opportunity ARRA presents for innovative partnerships to leverage training resources and share best practices

• T&TA plan is anticipated to be released in near future – Plan has been in works for several months and was previewed in

various session at the Training Conference

– Will include national baseline technical curricula, the first modules of which have already been piloted

– DOE plans to issue a competitive solicitation for much of the work

Training and Technical AssistanceTraining and Technical Assistance



• DOE is expanding its project officer corps– 1 WAP grantee per DOE project officer

– Will provide better support and account management

• Project officers will also be charged with oversight and monitoring of grantees– Monitoring will be more extensive and conducted with greater frequency

– Project officers will oversee grantees via desktop monitoring and on-site field visits (both announced and unannounced)

Oversight and MonitoringOversight and Monitoring


• Need for more data– Greater levels of funding necessitate greater accountability– Frequent data collection will allow DOE to more quickly identify problems

and progress

• Proposed expanded reporting requirements– Grantees will be required to project estimated spending and production

over the life of the grant– Must then report back every 30 days against their estimates

30-Day Reporting30-Day Reporting




• What is it?– National Historic Preservation Act requires any entity using federal

funds in historic properties or potentially historic properties to submit documentation to their State Historic Preservation Office (SHPO)

– Documentation must be submitted prior to work

– Minimum requirement for properties is age of 50 years or older

• DOE Actions– Providing staff to National Historic Preservation Office to expedite

reviews

– Providing all SHPOs with program and project information to educate staff on SEP, EECBG, and Weatherization Assistance Program
