Description
This is the second of a two-volume study dealing with energy problems in Texas. Volume I examines electric power generation in the state, with emphasis on consumption patterns, available fuels, environmental impacts, and procedures for regulating both conventional and nuclear powerplants. This volume surveys a much broader energy spectrum and develops a number of state policy alternatives for coping with immediate and long-range energy demands. Both studies are the product of two separate policy research projects conducted at the Lyndon B. Johnson School of Public Affairs over a two-year period, 1972-1974.
