Traficant, James A., Jr. [D-OH-17] | OH | D | T000350 | 0 | National Environmental-Economic Recovery Act of 1994 - Directs the Secretary of Energy to make a grant to the IRCA (Industrial Resource Consultants of America) Foundation to establish a facility meeting specified criteria, including: (1) electric energy production from solid wastes; (2) location in a depressed community; (3) provision of electricity and steam to energy intensive industry customers at specified discounted market rates; and (4) acquisition of a continuing supply of feedstock to sustain maximum operational capability through long-term contracts with governmental sources. Requires customers of such facility to reinvest a specified percentage of resultant savings in either capital investments or increased employment.
