Book excerpt: The Energy Efficiency and Conservation Block Grant (EECBG) Program, funded by the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act in 2009, holds important lessons for United States climate policy. A one-time infusion of funding given primarily to local governments to for the purpose of reducing energy use and greenhouse gas emissions, the policy had important but uneven effects. Most recipients were able to show progress on energy efficiency goals to meet program requirements. But communities with pre-existing interest in and experience with climate and energy programs tended to multiply the effects of the funding, using it to launch long-term efforts or prove concepts in order to secure further funding and support. The dissertation shows the value of communities' participation in voluntary policy initiatives related to climate and energy, as municipalities with even a small amount of related experience were better positioned to turn a one-time infusion of federal funding into long-lasting programs.

This book was released on 1981 with total page 14 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The choice of design features for block grants is properly a political function that should be driven by the ultimate objectives the Congress is seeking to achieve. Block grants intended to continue Federal stewardship of national objectives in a more flexible or decentralized manner should have significantly different design features than block grants intended principally to devolve Federal responsibilities back to State and local governments. In designing a block grant program, the Congress must consider the trade-offs between State and local discretion and Federal control. At one end of the spectrum, block grants may become indistinguishable from general revenue sharing, if, for example, a maintenance of effort provision is not included. On the other hand, detailed Federal eligibility rules, standards, or funding requirements could transform the block grant into a categorical grant, thus lessening any benefits that could be realized from greater State and local discretion. A balance should be sought between the extent of flexibility provided to State and local governments and the degree of accountability to the Federal Government required to assure that the program's national objectives will be met. A number of different provisions can be incorporated into block grants to facilitate the achievement of national objectives. The provisions considered should be nonintrusively framed to encourage States and localities to meet national objectives in the broadest possible way and provide flexibility. The provisions could encourage achievement of goals without specifying the means to be used. (Author).

Book excerpt: Each year, the federal government provides billions of dollars to state and local jurisdictions to fund a wide variety of public policies. According to some estimates, grants-in-aid account for almost one third of total state funding. While the programs funded by these grants address very real needs, the grants themselves are structured to ensure that federal policy is followed to a greater or lesser extent. Despite the often-heard call for smaller government, this influence has largely been accepted by American society, and is expected in some cases. Scholars have studied intergovernmental influence from a variety of perspectives, including policy diffusion. The bulk of this research has focused on the state-to-state adoption process, and has identified a variety of contributing factors. While the study of local policy diffusion has occurred, this has typically focused on identifying individual factors, and not on an examination of the broad range of possibilities. This study proposes to scrutinize how a variety of factors contribute to policy diffusion for the Energy Efficiency and Conservation Block Grant (EECBG) program with the goal of shedding light on the local process in Texas. In addition, the study will also analyze if the policy influence behind the grant continues as part of the community decision making process after the money has been spent and the projects completed. There are three generally accepted forms of federal grants-in-aid; categorical grants, block grants, and revenue sharing. Scholars have identified a variety of advantages and disadvantages associated with each form. Block grants are thought to carry fewer restrictions, promote innovation, and have a moderate influence on policy. It seems reasonable to expect that because they use fiscal incentives, the policy influence from block grants may decline rapidly after the award is complete. In fact, Congress tends to modify block grants and gradually transform them into more restrictive categorical grants, which establishes more control but decreases their ability to encourage innovation. However, if policy influence continues after the grant is completed, then restricting block grants may not be as necessary to meet national goals. This could be an incentive for Congress to emphasize the more innovative aspects of these grants instead of restricting them as they mature. The EECBG offers an opportunity to not only better understand the reasons Texas municipalities use the grant, but to discover if the policy behind the award has influence after the program is complete.
