# 15 U.S.C. § 5301 - Findings
|
||
|
||
## Text
|
||
|
||
The Congress finds that—
|
||
|
||
(1) metal casting is an important process for manufacturing many items imported into or exported from the United States;
|
||
|
||
(2) the encouragement and maintenance of a technically advanced United States metal casting industry is essential to the competitiveness of many American industries;
|
||
|
||
(3) maintaining a viable metal casting industry is vital to the national security and economic well being of the United States;
|
||
|
||
(4) the promotion of technology competitiveness and energy efficiency in the United States metal casting industry by the Federal Government is necessary to maintain a viable metal casting industry;
|
||
|
||
(5) many metal casting companies lack the resources to conduct metal casting research alone, placing them at a serious competitive disadvantage;
|
||
|
||
(6) the support of university-based research in metal casting is important in promoting technology development and providing industry with qualified engineers; and
|
||
|
||
(7) by combining the resources of the Federal Government, universities, industry, and private organizations, to conduct research and development activities, substantial technological benefits will result to the metal casting industry.
