Dependence of the LWFA performance upon the laser wavelength is applied to optimization of the plasma-channeled standard LWFA operating in a linear regime. Electron beam energy spread, emittance and luminosity depend upon the proportion of the electron bunch size to the plasma wavelength. This proportion tends to improve with the laser wavelength increase. We propose the two-stage {approximately}1 GeV LWFA with the controlled energy spread and emittance based on realistic capabilities of the BNL ATF that features: picosecond terawatt CO{sub 2} laser and a high-brightness electron gun.
