Award performance by linking the amount of the tax deduction to energy savings achieved.
Mr. Lujan. Mr. Chairman, thank you very much, as well.
It's cheaper, obviously, to save energy than it is to produce energy.
The 179D deduction is a technology-neutral incentive because it does not pick 'winners and losers.'
The maximum tax incentive available under the Snowe-Bingaman proposal is 50% of the total cost of a retrofit plan.
Measure energy savings for retrofits compared to the existing building's baseline.
That would go a long way to help building owners manage their properties more energy efficiently.
We applaud you for that, hope that it can be enacted some time soon.
We would encourage you to take a look at a bill that Senator Menendez and Senator Enzi have.
Make the tax incentive usable for a broad range of building efficiency stakeholders and building types, including REITS.
The Roundtable wholly supports the work of Chairman Jeff Bingaman (D-NM) and Olympia Snowe (R-ME)...
We think that would go a long way.
Congress should extend and reform the tax deduction for energy efficient commercial buildings at Section 179D of the Internal Revenue Code.
We believe it will be a benefit not only to Los Alamos but to nearby communities, as well.

We are also grateful for Senators Lamar Alexander, Maria Cantwell, Tom Udall, and Patty Murray's leadership in co-sponsoring this legislatio...
I believe it's important for future generations to learn about it and from it.
Protecting these resources is something the Los Alamos Historical Society has been working on for nearly fifty years.
