Abstract
Electrical power plant sites on Federal lands leased pursuant to the Geothermal Steam Act of 1970 present an array of unusual problems primarily due to the potential of competition for multiple uses of lands involved, as well as the individual statutory and regulatory responsibilities of various Federal agencies concerned wit the surface management of lands leased by the United States.
