The U.S. Department of <strong>Energy</strong> (DOE) Office of Electricity Delivery and <strong>Energy</strong> Reliability (OE) funded the<br />

production of this publication. The Infrastructure Security and <strong>Energy</strong> Restoration Division (ISER) of OE is the<br />

primary DOE office responsible for energy emergency planning and response. For more information, visit the OE<br />

website at: http://www.oe.energy.gov/. The <strong>Guidelines</strong> were produced by DOE/OE/ISER under the leadership of<br />

Alice Lippert, Program Manager for DOE’s State and <strong>Local</strong> <strong>Government</strong> <strong>Energy</strong> <strong>Assurance</strong> Program, and Michael<br />

Norbeck, also of DOE’s <strong>Energy</strong> <strong>Assurance</strong> Program.<br />

This document was developed by the Public Technology Institute (<strong>PTI</strong>). As the only national non-profit technology<br />

organization created by and for cities and counties, <strong>PTI</strong> works with a core network of leading local government<br />

officials—the <strong>PTI</strong> membership—to identify opportunities for technology research, share best practices, promote<br />

technology development initiatives, and develop enhanced educational programming. <strong>PTI</strong> shares the results of these<br />

activities and the expertise of its members with the broader audience of the thousands of cities and counties across<br />

the United States. For additional information, visit the <strong>PTI</strong> website at: http://www.pti.org/.<br />

This version (2.0) of the <strong>Local</strong> <strong>Government</strong> <strong>Energy</strong> <strong>Assurance</strong> <strong>Guidelines</strong> builds upon DOE’s Ten-Step<br />

Framework and <strong>PTI</strong>’s first version of the <strong>Local</strong> <strong>Government</strong> <strong>Energy</strong> <strong>Assurance</strong> <strong>Guidelines</strong> (1.0) to help local<br />

governments develop their own <strong>Energy</strong> <strong>Assurance</strong> Plans (EAPs). Version 2.0 reflects experience gained in<br />

developing local EAPs since the <strong>Guidelines</strong> were first published in 2009. The Ten-Step Framework can be found<br />

at: http://www.energyassurance.us/index.php/leap/more_2/52/.<br />

This publication would not have been possible without the efforts of Steven J. Foute, Ph.D., formerly of the City and<br />

County of Denver, and George Burmeister, President of the Colorado <strong>Energy</strong> Group, both of whom serve as strategic<br />

advisors. The authors also thank the <strong>Local</strong> EAP city recipients who shared their expertise, time, and experiences,<br />

all of which contributed greatly to this document. This work was managed by Ronda Mosley, Assistant Executive<br />

Director for Research and <strong>Government</strong> Services, Public Technology Institute.<br />
