 International City/County Management Association and Energy 
 Commuinities Alliance (ICMA) invite you to:
 
 Cleaning Up After the Cold War:
 The Role of Local Government in the Cleanup and Reuse of Federal 
 Facilities.

 December 6, 1996
 San Antonio, Texas
 _______________
 
 The study explores effective local government involvement in federal 
 facility environmental remediation, future use planning, and 
 institutional control for site reuse. ECA and ICMA visited Department 
 of Energy and Department of Defense facilities across the county to 
 interview local, state, and federal officials, planners, emergency 
 management personnel, members of environmental restoration and reuse 
 advisory groups, among others. These interviews were the basis for 
 the report findings.
 
 The workshop will address the study's findings, local governments' 
 experience working with DOD and DOE, the Federal Facilities 
 Environmental Restoration Dialogue Committee (FFERDC) Report as it 
 pertains to local government, and the ECA/Department of Energy Role of 
 Local Government Principles.
 
 The one and a half day workshop will include sessions for both former 
 and active, energy and defense communities. Participants will have 
 the opportunity to interact with and learn from other local 
 communities.
