    America's Infrastructure Crumbling : ASCE
    Posted on Tuesday, September 16, 2003 @ 22:33:20 GMT by vlad

    General A report card by the American Society of Civil Engineers released September 4 said the condition of 12 categories of infrastructure hasn't improved in the past two years. The report blamed a weak economy, limited federal programs, population growth and the threat of terrorism, which has diverted money to security.

    The report gave a D-minus for dams, with the number of unsafe dams rising to nearly 2,600 and 21 dam failures in the past two years. Energy transmission earned a D-plus, but the ASCE said the trend is getting worse. The report card is available at http://www.asce.org/reportcard.

    In a recent PRNewswire (Sep 15, 2003) we learn that: "Plug Power Inc. , announced today a $3.9 million program award from the National Institute of Standards and Technology [NIST]. The award is part of NIST`s Advanced Technology Program [ATP] and is for research and development of stationary fuel cells. Plug Power expects to receive approximately $1.8 million in net funding from NIST during the two year, cost-share program."

    Good to know the following about ATP:
    "ATP provides cost-shared funding to industry-led teams, which can include non-profits and universities to help advance particularly challenging, high-risk R&D projects that have the potential to spark important, broad-based economic or social benefits for the United States. The program supports projects that industry cannot fully fund on its own because of significant technical risks. ATP awards are made on the basis of rigorous, competitive peer review of the scientific and technical merit of each proposal. Further information about ATP is available at http://www.atp.nist.gov/. "
