Our country is determined to win the energy war and I believe the people here on East Biddle Street can help me.

I'm determined to maintain a steady course, to maintain a sound fiscal policy.

There could not possibly be a better person to head this important agency.

I will nominate George A. Dalley, of Washington, D.C., to be a member of the Civil Aeronautics Board.

Nominations submitted include various judicial and regulatory positions.

I am therefore directing you to manage the public lands administered by BLM in accordance with the following principles:

Transportation funds are used to promote energy conservation.

Erosion continues to occur at very high rates.

I am establishing an interagency IPM Coordinating Committee to assure implementation of this directive and to oversee further development and implementation of integrated pest management practices.

The Federal Government will make cost-effective investments in protecting and enhancing these lands within the constraints of fiscal responsibility.

Solar energy is renewable and secure.

The quality of our environment must be nurtured by wise decisions and protected from hasty or unplanned actions.

Firm actions are taken to mitigate adverse effects of transportation projects on the environment.

The Federal Government will seek to resolve conflicts among competing uses in a spirit of cooperation and trust, and will make—not avoid—tough decisions on the allocation of the valued resources of public lands.

The Federal government will be a good neighbor, providing full opportunities for those affected by our management decisions to be involved in making them.

The report shall set forth specific administrative and legislative recommendations to reduce soil erosion and to improve soil stewardship in order to maintain the Nation's long-term agricultural productivity.

Our great natural heritage should be protected for the use and enjoyment of all citizens.

I fully support the reorientation of urban transportation programs and projects to meet energy and urban goals.
