ENERGY: Improvements
will decrease utility costs
I Continued from Page 1
L air conditioning units, called
; constant air volume systems,
| operate by heating and cooling
; simultaneously. The systems
L work like a shower faucet,
| blending the hot air that is pro-
i duced with increasing amounts
; of cold air.
Darnell said these systems
| are extremely costly during
! the summer.
"When you're not in your
i peak cooling load, you have to
; put a whole lot of extra cooling
; into the facility to remove the
| heat,” Darnell said. “It sounds
| almost silly that those systems
| would be designed that way.”
The new systems will only
i produce cool air, he said.
The grant also will pay for
; improvements in the chilled
| water systems, which circulate
; cool water to buildings on cam-
; pus. The water is used to cool
j the air, then send the water
j back to be chilled again.
! Darnell said controls will be
! installed in the buildings so
| that chilled water is used only
when it is needed.
Both of the projects will re
duce the amount of energy
needed, which will decrease
utility costs.
The Loan STAR projects are
part of the University’s four-
i year-old energy management
| program. Darnell said there
I are 11 ongoing projects with a
| $12 million price tag, and
i when the projects are finished,
j the University will use 15 per-
| cent less energy.
Darnell said A&M’s program
; was based on established pro-
i grams at other universities like
I: the University of Texas and
; Texas Southern University.
V.J. Von Wolske, an energy
conservation engineer at UT,
said the UT energy manage
ment program involves several
elements of the Texas A&M
program, like the air condition
ing renovations.
He explained that the UT
campus has reduced its energy
use by 33 percent since 1986,
and as the program continues
to grow, the campus will use
less and less energy.
Von Wolske said there must
be certain factors to make any
energy conservation work.
“The keys are administrative
support, very good technical
support and long-term commit
ment,” Von Wolske said.
Dr. Jerry Gaston, interim
vice president for finance and
administration, said the ad
ministration fully supports
the program.
“I think it’s important for
any academic institution to set
an example of what is the prop
er use of our natural re
sources,” Gaston said. “That
has to be a high priority.”
Gaston also said the Univer
sity is aware of the benefits
good energy management can
yield. He explained that by re
ducing utility costs, the Univer
sity and state save money.
Since 25 percent of the Uni
versity’s utility costs are for
auxiliaries like Food Services
and the Department of Resi
dence Life and Housing, which
are supported by student fees,
the students save money as
well, Gaston said.
“These projects are all going
to pay for themselves,” Gaston ;
said. “We save money, the stu- ;
dents save money and the state i
of Texas saves money. It’s a :
win-win-win situation.”
PLANTS: Seedlings belong to A&M
Continued from Page 1
we are always interested in im
proving vase life.”
A new crop of long-stemmed
bluebonnets will be grown in ex
perimental and commercial
greenhouses in October and No
vember. The participating com
mercial growers are located in
Texas, Kentucky and Mexico.
“We provide them [the com
mercial growers] the seed,”
Davis said.
“They have to sign an agree
ment that all seed material be
longs to Texas A&M. They can
sell the flowers, but they can’t
further propagate them. This
gives us good information from
test markets.”

Heavy fighting erupts in Sarajevo;
Russian envoy pursues diplomacy
Bosnia-Herzegovina partition plan
The peace plan proposed by Russia, Britain, France, Germany and the
United States would divide Bosnia, giving 49 percent to the Serbs, who
now control 70 percent of the country, and 51 percent to a Muslim-Croat
federation.

□ The city has not had
electricity, water or

last month.
SARAJEVO, Bosnia-
Herzegovina (AP) — Sirens
sounded a general alert Tues
day and explosions rocked
confrontation lines as ar
tillery battles erupted anew
around Sarajevo.
U.N. spokeswoman Maj.
Myriam Sochacki said fighting
began south of Sarajevo about
6 p.m., but U.N. observers
were not able to provide fur
ther details due to restrictions
on their movement.
Bosnian Serb media report
ed government forces renewed
artillery attacks around Serb-
held Hadzici southwest of
Sarajevo. Fighting was also re
ported in northeastern Bosnia.
A three-day blitz by Bosn
ian government forces last
week heralded the start of a
summer-long offensive to try
to crack the three-year Serb
siege of Sarajevo. The Muslim-
led government army hopes to
capture strategic heights
around the city, thus severing
Serb supply routes.
The city has not had elec
tricity, water or regular food
aid for the last month.
French peacekeepers at an
observation post in a north
ern Sarajevo suburb fired
four 90mm tank rounds Tues
day at a Serb tank after it
fired 15 rounds at them. It
was the first time this year
that U.N. soldiers used a
tank to respond to an attack,
and at least one French
round hit its target.
Tuesday’s fighting came as
Russian envoy Vitaly Churkin
met Serbian and Bosnian Serb
leaders on a peace initiative
masterminded by France, Rus
sia and Serbia.
Churkin met in Belgrade
with Serbian President Slo
bodan Milosevic for the sec
ond day Tuesday. Monday
night, he held talks with
Bosnian Serb leader
Radovan Karadzic.
In Paris on Tuesday,
French Foreign Minister
Herve De Charette met with
his Bosnian counterpart,
Muhamed Sacirbey.
Both the Muslim-led Bosn-
Associated Press
ian government and the rebel
Serbs have indicated they
might be willing to return to
peace talks if the conditions
are right.
Government forces made
substantial gains around
Sarajevo last week, according
to U.N. officials, and at least
temporarily cut two Serb sup
ply roads.
The Serbs apparently re
gained control of the road be
tween Pale and the Serb-held
Lukavica suburb.
