A letter report issued by the General Accounting Office with an abstract that begins "Under the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo in 1848, which formally ended the Mexican-American War, the United States assumed control over vast new territories, including much of what is now the state of New Mexico. The United States agreed to recognize ownership of property, including the ownership of land grants, in the ceded areas. Whether the United States carried out the provisions of the treaty, especially with regard to community land grants, has been a controversial issue for generations. Land grant documents contain no direct reference to "community land grants," nor do Spanish and Mexican laws define or use this term. GAO did find, however, that some grants refer to lands set aside for general communal use or for specific purposes, such as hunting, maintaining pastures, wood gathering, or watering. Scholars, the land grant literature, and popular terminology commonly use the phrase "community land grants" to denote land grants that set aside common lands for the use of the entire community. GAO used this broad definition to determine which Spanish and Mexican land grants could be identified as community land grants. GAO identified 152 community land grants …

This document describes I/O focused requirements, issues, options, plans, deliverables and budgets for Livermore Computing (LC) in FY02. Areas covered include I/O for archival storage, network, platform, visualization and the I/O Testbed. Implementation Plan (IP) milestones and tasks in each of these areas map to the efforts and plans described in this document. When developing FY02 I/O requirements, a survey of key LC customers was performed (see Appendix A and D) and DisCom2 requirements were gathered. The LC customer provided throughput and capacity estimates were quite conservative when compared to ASCI curve projections and were history-based rather than being based on hardware capabilities. Because substantial differences exist in the ASCI platform in FY02, required I/O throughput rates were raised appropriately (i.e., by over 200% platform-to-archive). Archive capacity requirements remain fairly stable in FY02 as aggressive FY01 plans and purchases will accommodate most of the volume of data received through FY02. 10 Gigabit Ethernet network infrastructure will begin to get deployed in early FY02. When full implementation becomes cost effective it will allow us to greatly increase bandwidth between computer facilities. In addition pre-production OC-48 Ultrafastlane encryptors will be installed in early FY02 at each of the Tri-Labs. Preliminary testing of …

Energy-performance improvements in consumer products are an essential element in any government's portfolio of energy-efficiency and climate change mitigation programs. Governments need to develop balanced programs, both voluntary and regulatory, that remove cost-ineffective, energy-wasting products from the marketplace and stimulate the development of cost-effective, energy-efficient technology. Energy-efficiency labels and standards for appliances, equipment, and lighting products deserve to be among the first policy tools considered by a country's energy policy makers. The U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) and the United Nations Foundation (UNF) recognize the need to support policy makers in their efforts to implement energy-efficiency standards and labeling programs and have developed this guidebook, together with the Collaborative Labeling and Appliance Standards Program (CLASP), as a primary reference. This guidebook was prepared over the course of the past year with significant contribution from the authors and reviewers mentioned previously. Their diligent participation has made this the international guidance tool it was intended to be. The lead authors would also like to thank the following individuals for their support in the development, production, and distribution of the guidebook: Marcy Beck, Elisa Derby, Diana Dhunke, Ted Gartner, and Julie Osborn of Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory as well as Anthony Ma …
