BACKGROUND
PURPOSE OF THE BILL
This bill makes appropriations for the military functions of the Department of Defense for the period October 1, 2001, through September 30, 2002. Functional areas include the pay, allowances, and support of military personnel, operation and maintenance of the forces, procurement of equipment and systems, and research, development, test, and evaluation. Appropriations for military assistance, military construction, family housing, nuclear weapons programs, and civil defense are provided in other bills.
HEARINGS
The Subcommittee on Department of Defense Appropriations began hearings on February 28, 2001, and concluded them on September 5, 2001, after 11 separate sessions. The subcommittee heard testimony from representatives of the Department of Defense, other Federal agencies, representatives of organizations, and the public.
SUMMARY OF THE BILL
The Committee considered a total fiscal year 2002 budget request of $319,547,116,000 in new obligational authority for the military functions of the Department of Defense, excluding military assistance, military construction, family housing and civil defense. On April 9, 2001, the President submitted a request for $301,379,092,000 for programs under the jurisdiction of the Subcommittee on Defense. On June 28, 2001, the President amended his budget increasing the funding requested by $18,168,024,000. The amended budget is $28,663,285,000 above fiscal year 2001 levels including supplementals.
At $317,623,483,000, the funding recommended in this bill is the largest defense budget in the Nation's history. The Committee recommendations pay for the on-going programs of the Defense Department and to transform the military for the new century. The primary goal of this bill is to ensure readiness and fair treatment of our men and women in uniform. It was not crafted to provide a direct response to the tragic events of September 11, 2001. The Committee understands that additional funding to respond to the crisis are being funded through supplemental appropriations measures. The Committee expects that all costs associated with the defense response to those terrorist attacks will be provided in these other bills. The following table displays the recommendations for each title:

CLASSIFIED PROGRAM ADJUSTMENTS
The Committee recommends adjustments to certain classified programs, as explained in the classified annex to the Committee's report.
COMPLIANCE WITH 302(B) ALLOCATION
The Appropriations Committee conformed fully to the budget resolution for defense spending in its 302(b) allocation. This allocation divided the budget authority and outlays among the subcommittees with jurisdiction over discretionary spending. The Defense Subcommittee has the greatest share of defense spending. In this recommended bill, the Appropriations Committee has remained within the tight constraints of its 302(b) allocation for defense.

MILITARY PERSONNEL OVERVIEW
FISCAL YEAR 2002 HIGHLIGHTS
The Committee notes that the fiscal year 2002 budget estimate represents a significant increase in the military personnel accounts. The fiscal year 2002 military personnel budget estimate is over $6,000,000,000 more than the fiscal year 2001 estimate. Major initiatives include:
Targeted pay raise- The budget estimate provides for a 5 percent increase in basic pay for all service members, and a targeted pay raise of up to 10 percent for enlisted grades E-4 to E-9 and mid grade officers. This targeted pay raise increases pay for those grades with the most difficult retention challenges.
Reduced out-of-pocket housing costs- The budget estimate includes funds to continue the effort to increase Basic Allowance for Housing rates, and to reduce service members average out-of-pocket housing expense from the current 15 percent to 11.3 percent in fiscal year 2002 and to eliminate the average out-of-pocket expense completely by fiscal year 2005.
Increased active component end strength- The Navy is seeking to increase authorized active component end strength by 3,358, and the Air Force is seeking to increase authorized active component end strength by 1,800 over fiscal year 2001 authorized levels.
EXCESS PERMANENT CHANGE OF STATION (PCS) MOVES
The Department of Defense requested more than $2,951,000,000 in the Active military personnel accounts for permanent change of station (PCS) moves. The request would fund more than 715,000 PCS moves, which would mean that, on average, a striking 52 percent of the force would move during the fiscal year.
At the Committee's request, the General Accounting Office prepared a report that examined the impact of PCS moves on retention and overall satisfaction with military life. The GAO documented and quantified the very intuitive notion that too frequent PCS moves have a adverse impact on satisfaction with military life, and a negative impact on a service member's decision to stay in the military.
GAO reported that a surprising 20 percent of survey respondents had, during their career, an average PCS tour length of less than 1 year, and that 49 percent had PCS tours of 2 years or less. GAO found that service members who move more frequently are less satisfied with their military careers, and also less likely to choose to stay in the military.
The Committee believes that moving too frequently has become one of the principal causes of dissatisfaction with military life. While the Committee understands that moving is a fact of military service, it is the Committee's view that DOD has over time adopted personnel policies and practices that move service members and their families all too often, and far more than what is reasonable.
The Committee is encouraged to hear senior DOD officials recognize the adverse impacts of moving service members too frequently. Of note, these officials have wisely observed that there is also an adverse operational impact of moving too often, and lengthening tours of duty would allow service members to become more proficient and experienced in their assignments.
The Committee recommends a reduction of $317,000,000 across the Active military personnel accounts for excess PCS moves. Further, the Committee directs the Secretary of Defense to develop a comprehensive plan to reduce the quantity of PCS moves 30 percent by the end of fiscal year 2004, and to report to the congressional defense committees on that plan in conjunction with submission of the fiscal year 2003 budget request.
SECONDARY EDUCATION TRANSITION STUDY
The Committee is aware that military-connected students move from school system to school system about three times more often than other students do. The Committee applauds the Department of the Army for initiating a Secondary Education Transition Study (SETS) that thoughtfully examined the impact of high school transitions for military-connected students. This research effort has developed a set of recommendations to improve predictability for high school students as they transition through different school settings.
The Committee commends local school system superintendents who have committed their school districts to work with local military installations to increase predictability for mobile students. This partnership is expressed in a Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) between various school systems, which is designed to facilitate the mutual development of reciprocal practices, and conduits for information between school systems about requirements. The Committee encourages other school systems to develop partnerships with their local military installation and join in the formal network provided by the Memorandum of Agreement process.
EXCESS 15 YEAR CAREER STATUS BONUSES
The Department of Defense requested over $537,500,000 for a recently authorized $30,000 career status bonus for those service members who, after 15 years of service, choose the `Redux' retirement plan and reduced retirement benefits. Service budget materials failed to explain how the requested amounts were calculated, and did not contain any justification for the requested amounts. As the Department did not justify the amount requested, the Committee recommends a reduction of $53,750,000 to the separation pay lines across the Active military personnel accounts.
RESERVE COMPONENT END STRENGTH
The Committee recommends an increase to the requested Active Guard and Reserve full-time support end strength for both the Army Reserve and the Army National Guard. The Committee recommends an additional 298 positions and $10,000,000 for the Army Reserve, and an additional 724 positions and $24,700,000 for the Army National Guard.
The Committee recommends an increase to the requested dual status military technician end strength for both the Army Reserve and the Army National Guard. The Committee recommends an additional 250 positions for the Army Reserve, and an additional 487 positions and $13,200,000 in operation and maintenance funding for the Army National Guard.
All of these recommended increases are consistent with the end strength levels reported in S. 1416, the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2002.
RESERVE COMPONENT SCHOOL TRAINING AND SPECIAL TRAINING
The Committee recommends an additional $40,000,000 across the Reserve component personnel accounts for additional school training and special training to increase the readiness of Guard and Reserve units.
RESERVE COMPONENT INCENTIVE AND BONUS PROGRAMS
The Committee recommends a general provision that provides an additional $10,000,000 for incentive and bonus programs to address the most pressing recruitment and retention issues in the Reserve components.

Recalculation of obligation requirements- The Committee was informed of an error between recorded obligations and actual obligations in prior year Military Personnel, Navy appropriations. This error, caused by the Defense Finance and Accounting Service (DFAS), caused an overstatement of obligations and resulted in significant expired balances in prior year accounts. Also, this error caused fiscal year 2002 obligation requirements to be overstated. Accordingly, the Committee reflects a reduction of $50,000,000 to reflect a recalculation of obligation requirements.

Realignment between budget activities- Army National Guard officials informed the Committee of a significant shortfall for school training and bonuses funded in budget activity two, and asked that resources be realigned from budget activity one. As the realignment will improve duty MOS qualification goals and improve readiness, the Committee recommends realigning $50,000,000 from budget activity two to budget activity one. The Committee directs the Secretary of Defense to evaluate funding school training in budget activity one starting with the fiscal year 2003 budget request.
Emergency Spill Response and Preparedness Program- The Committee recommends $860,000 for the Alaska Army National Guard Emergency Spill Response and Preparedness Program.

OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE OVERVIEW
DEFENSE INFORMATION SYSTEMS AGENCY TWO TIER PRICING
During fiscal year 2000 the Department of Defense initiated the use of a two tiered billing structure to charge the military services for telecommunications costs. Under Tier Two, the military services are charged a rate for information services similar to commercial information services. Under Tier One, overhead costs of the network are funded by transferring military service operation and maintenance funding based on the service component's total obligational authority, exclusive of use.
The intent of this rate construct was to encourage use of the network, and to preclude an increase in total costs of the system, but it has not. The use of contract and communications services outside of the DISA are increasing rather than decreasing. Moreover, the costs of DISA are now buried within service budget requests. Furthermore, Defense officials have used DISA funding to enter into a satellite communications contract costing the government millions of dollars, without consulting with Congress. Finally, by assigning Tier One charges based on service budget authority, this funding mechanism serves to punish whichever service has most efficiently crafted their operation and maintenance budget.
Therefore, the Committee directs the Department to budget system overhead costs (or Tier One funding) within the DISA operation and maintenance budget beginning in fiscal year 2003. For fiscal year 2002, the Committee recommends a transfer of Tier One costs of $170,000,000 from within the service and agency requests to DISA, and a decrease of $24,700,000 for overhead growth. The Committee expects these changes will improve DISA accountability and oversight in coming years.
BIOMETRICS INFORMATION ASSURANCE
The Committee recommends additional funding for the biometrics information assurance program in the amounts of $15,000,000 for Operation and Maintenance, Army, of which up to $2,000,000 may be provided to both the Departments of the Navy and Air Force; $9,000,000 for Other Procurement, Army, of which up to $1,000,000 may be provided to both the Departments of the Navy and Air Force; and $6,000,000 for Research and Development, Army, of which up to $500,000 may be provided to both the Departments of the Navy and Air Force. These funds are provided to support the efforts of the Army as Executive Agent to lead, consolidate, and coordinate all biometrics information assurance programs and to execute technology demonstrations for both physical and logical access for the Department of Defense (DOD), pursuant to the June 12, 2000, Army report on the Biometrics Project (`Report') prepared at the request of the Committees on Appropriations. The Committee directs the continued implementation of the plan defined in the Report.
The Committee provides these funds consistent with the Quadrennial Defense Review Report, September 30, 2001, which lists biometrics as one of five priority `emerging technologies' of which the Department `will vigorously pursue the development and exploitation'.
The Committee specifically encourages the Department to expedite establishing a Biometrics Template Repository and to conduct a requirements analysis to determine the need for a centralized biometric repository, in a permanent Biometrics Fusion Center as recommended in the Report. Such a repository will be necessary for identity assurance efforts at military and key civilian facilities, such as airports.
TRAVEL INCREASES
After accounting for inflation, the budget request contained a program increase for travel of $300,000,000. The Department of Defense was provided ample opportunity to justify the need for this increase, and could not. The Committee recommends a reduction of $170,000,000.
BASE REMEDIATION AND REUSE
The Committee understands that concerns about future liability have been a significant impediment to the remediation and reuse of military installations closed through the BRAC process. There are reports that private insurance products have been an effective tool for addressing the liability concerns of local governments, contractors and developers of BRAC installations. The Committee has been informed that where private insurance productions have been utilized, remediation and reuse have been significantly accelerated, ultimately saving the Federal Government millions of dollars. To the extent that these reports are accurate, the Committee believes the Military Services should encourage private recipients of base closure property to use private insurance products to facilitate the remediation and reuse of BRAC installations.

Real Property Maintenance- During fiscal year 2001, the Army increased the funding for facilities Sustainment, Restoration, and Modernization (SRM) to meet 94 percent of identified requirements, shifting funds appropriated for other purposes, such as base operations support, to SRM. The Army then claimed a shortfall in base operations support and sought supplemental funding from the Congress. The budget request seeks an increase in SRM funding of over $500,000,000 above the levels appropriated in fiscal year 2001. As in past years, to protect the training subactivity groups associated with operational readiness, the Committee supports the Army's SRM and base operations plan. This increased level of funding should serve to mitigate any need to realign funds during the first quarter of fiscal year 2002. The Committee directs that SRM funds recommended in this bill shall provide the following program baseline in fiscal year 2002. Any adjustments directed in the bill shall be applied to this baseline:
| [In thousands of dollars] | |

Quadrennial Defense Review- The Department's Quadrennial Defense Review (QDR) outlines a reorientation of the U.S. global military posture. According to the QDR, this new posture will compel: a redistribution of forces and equipment; a new basing system beyond Western Europe and Northeast Asia; and, an acceleration in the fielding of Interim Brigade Combat Teams (IBCT), specifically to Europe. Given the dramatic changes alluded to in the QDR, some of the elements of the request cannot be supported absent specific force structure and stationing decisions. For example, several Sustainment, Restoration, and Modernization programs in Europe and the United States may be obviated by the redistribution of forces and equipment. For example, the decision to increase force presence in Italy may be inconsistent with fielding an IBCT. Mobilization improvements at some U.S. bases may be unnecessary based on QDR decisions. Where improvement and planning can be expedited, the Committee recommends increased funding, as in the fielding of IBCTs in the Pacific.
Finance and personnel, maintenance of equipment- The budget request sought an increase of $2,357,000 for Corps Support Forces, Finance and Personnel maintenance of field equipment. The Committee recommends a decrease of $1,500,000. The justification materials failed to explain the increased cost of equipment for these support units.
Transition studies and civilian buyout costs- The Army is currently studying whether to replace civilian positions with contract employees, which may result in reductions in personnel. The justification materials fail to explain the scale of the studies, or the number of positions concerned. Therefore, the Committee recommends a decrease of $2,000,000 for transition studies and $40,640,000 for civilian buyout costs. Costs for transition should be reported to the Committee once they are available.
Air Battle Captain- The Committee recommends $1,250,000 for the Air Battle Captain helicopter flight training program.
Central supply activities- Funds were requested for documentation and manuals for recapitalized equipment, although the types and quantities of that equipment have yet to be identified. Therefore, the Committee recommends a decrease of $5,000,000 to the request.
Army Conservation and Ecosystem Management- The Committee provides an increase of $5,000,000 for the protection of environmentally sensitive areas. Of these funds, $500,000 shall be used only for the establishment of a monitoring program for four groundwater test wells. These tests will provide information in groundwater movement and transport of contaminants. Additionally, $500,000 shall be available for the clearing and surveying of unexploded ordnance.
Army Environmental Policy Institute- The Committee directs the Army to review the current status of the Army Environmental Policy Institute. This review shall include: an evaluation of the Institute's performance; the relevance of its mission and charter; annual operating costs; and, the merits of sustaining such an Institute, particularly in its current or alternative locations.
Montpelier Reserve Center.--The Committee directs the Department of the Army to complete cleanup of the former Army Reserve Center in Montpelier, Vermont including a septic tank found after the original transfer of the building to civilian authorities.
Combating Aggressive Driving Campaign- The Committee commends Forces Command for efforts to reduce losses due to vehicle accidents. The Committee is concerned with the number of automobile deaths and injuries to Department of Defense personnel. Of the funds available to the Army, $1,250,000 shall be available to continue the Forces Command campaign.
Unutilized Plant Capacity- The Committee is disappointed that the Army did not fully budget for Unutilized Plant Capacity, also known as Industrial Mobilization Capacity. The Committee, therefore, recommends an additional $25,000,000 for Unutilized Plant Capacity for Rock Island (IL) and Watervliet (NY) Arsenals. All fiscal year 2002 Unutilized Plant Capacity/Industrial Mobilization Capacity funding shall be used only for this purpose.
Deployment of information systems- Of the funds made available for Operation and Maintenance, Army, $500,000 shall be available for the Director of Information Systems for Command, Control, Communications and Computers to expand the deployment of the enterprise-wide, Internet-based e-learning system to meet the demands of homeland defense and security training.
Recruiting study- Of the funds made available for Recruiting and Advertising, $3,000,000 shall be used for a joint research project to be conducted by the U.S. Army Recruiting Command and the University of Louisville.
Joliet Arsenal- The Committee is concerned about the pace of remediation at the former Joliet Arsenal (IL) and directs the Army to undertake an accelerated environmental cleanup schedule.

B-52 attrition reserve aircraft- The Committee recommends sufficient operation and maintenance funding to support a force structure of 94 aircraft.
Wind energy fund.--The Committee recommends an increase of $500,000 to pay the additional costs of purchasing a quantity of electric energy generated by wind turbines. Part of this appropriation is directed to the Grand Forks and Minot Air Force Bases to purchase 1,500 blocks/month of 100-kilowatt hours of wind generated electricity through the bases' incumbent power suppliers. The remaining funds are directed to purchase wind generated power at other Air Force bases. The Committee directs the Air Force to include funds at this level for this initiative in its fiscal year 2003 through 2006 budget.
Space programs underexecution- The Committee recommends a decrease of $3,000,000 for space control systems and $1,000,000 for satellite systems for underexecution. Other Space Operations is reduced $4,000,000 for unjustified contractor growth.
Access-to-Space/Aircraft-like operations- The Committee recognizes the importance of improving the Department's ability to conduct space operations, and the need for dependable and low cost access to space. Critical factors such as improving the efficiency of `aircraft-like' operations will be necessary for assuring low cost aerospace operations. The Committee recommends that the Access-to-Space Joint Program Office be led by an Air Force organization which possesses demonstrated skill and experience in the development and acquisition of aircraft, and an understanding of `aircraft-like' operations for access-to-space vehicles.
Contaminant Air Processing Systems- The Committee commends the Secretary of the Air Force for standardizing mission-critical equipment that allows Air Force personnel to be effectively processed after contact with biological, chemical or nuclear agents. The Committee instructs the Secretary to use $2,000,000 within available funds to enable installations to purchase contaminant air processing systems and related components to ensure all Air Force installations are standardized in this methodology and equipment.

Sustaining base communications- The Committee notes a 25 percent growth in headquarters communications in fiscal year 2001 and another 15 percent increase in the administration's 2002 request for the Special Operations Command. Subsequently, the Committee recommends a reduction of $5,100,000 and directs that more focus be placed on funding deployable and mobile communications requirements, rather than placing such critical items on unfunded lists.
Program growth- A reduction of $2,800,000 is directed for `urgent shortfalls not addressed in the fiscal year 2001 Supplemental', as USSOCOM's request was fully funded by the Appropriations Committees.
Collateral equipment- The Committee recommends reductions of $2,100,000 and $2,000,000 for collateral equipment as defined in the fiscal year 2002 budget request, based upon the insufficient justification provided by USSOCOM.
Operation Focus Relief drawdown- USSOCOM has included funding for drawdown costs in the budget request. Funds for drawdown authority and related costs are not traditionally included in the request, and are funded from within available funds. The Committee therefore recommends a total reduction of $13,000,000 for drawdown-related line items.
Legacy Program- The Committee provides $12,000,000 for continuation of the Legacy program. From within these funds, the Committee directs the Department to continue naval archaeology programs in the Lake Champlain basin. Of equal importance to the Committee is the artifact recovery from the CSS Alabama, the recovery and preservation of the U.S.S. Monitor, and the preservation of the U.S.S. Massachusetts, U.S.S. LIONFISH, and other naval vessels of Battleship Cove. The Department shall report to the Appropriations Committees no later then March 15, 2002, on the allocation of Legacy funding, and the status of the projects named above.
DoDEA- The Committee recommends two important initiatives to be supported from within available funds of the Department of Defense Education Activity: the Schools Assisted Interactive Learning (SAIL) program, at $3,000,000 and an initiative in School Violence Reduction Strategies for Schools and Communities, at $3,000,000.
DCMA- Funds for contingency operations contract oversight are reduced by $2,800,000. The redundancy and waste in contingency contracts reveals that these programs are not being supervised.
DoDEA SRM- The Committee recommends an increase of $20,000,000 for facilities sustainment and repair. In considering the allocation of these funds, the Department should consider those installations with a disproportionately high number of special needs children in the Exceptional Family Member program. One example is the school district supporting Submarine Base Bangor in Kitsap County, Washington. The Committee recommends that not less than $5,000,000 of these funds be provided to schools located in this region.
OSD Reporting Requirements- The Secretary of Defense has articulated a need to transform the Department's business practices, and reduce redundant headquarters staff and bureaucratic structure, in conjunction with the modernization of combat forces and tactics. The Committee endorses the Secretary's stated goals, and has attempted in the bill to reduce the reporting requirements imposed by the Congress. In light of the significant reductions in statutory reporting requirements, the Committee has reduced funding for Washington headquarters activities by $15,000,000. In addition, many of the reports and justification materials required by the Congress arrive late or not at all. The Committee recommends reduced funding of $5,000,000 for studies and analysis.
Study on Intelligence Capabilities and Data Resource Integration- To enhance intelligence gathering capabilities and data resource integration following the events of September 11, 2001, the Committee recommends an increase of $5,000,000 for preparing a management action plan to assess how measurement and signature intelligence can be integrated with other intelligence activities and data. The goal of this plan should be to improve support for warfighter operations and policy decision-making. A primary focus of this study should be to complete the concept development and associated operations and design requirements for a measurement and signature intelligence data archive providing back-up capability, and enabling cross-disciplinary analysis of distributed data and possible sensor testing activity. The study should consider all shortfalls in MASINT capabilities and their integration. The Committee directs the Assistant Secretary of Defense for Command, Control, Communications, and Intelligence to provide to the congressional defense committees an interim report containing an outline of the content and expected milestones of this study no later than 45 days after enactment of this act and a final report no later than June 1, 2002.
Free Markets- The Committee recommendation includes $2,000,000 for Free Markets, a pilot program to test online markets for use by the Department. In order to encourage activities within the Department to explore the potential of online markets, the Under Secretary of Defense for Acquisition, Technology and Logistics shall conduct several online market tests for materials and services. DOD activities desiring to employ online markets will be required to submit a business case analysis to the USD (AT&L) detailing the materials and services thought to be suitable for online markets and the expected return on investment to be gained by the pilot initiative.
Thailand Security- The Committee is aware of a recent introduction of advanced fighter aircraft in Burma and is concerned with the strategic military balance in the region, particularly regarding Thailand. As such, the Committee requests the Department of Defense to report to the Committees on Appropriations no later than 120 days after the date of enactment of this Act on Thailand's defense needs--if any--to ensure military superiority over its airspace and territorial waters in the face of possible threats.

Management and Operational Headquarters- The budget request for management and operational headquarters represents an increase of $40,000,000 above fiscal year 2001 levels. The increase was not justified in budget exhibits or in response to Committee review. The Committee recommends a decrease of $7,000,000 to the request.
Distributive training technology programs- The Committee recommends an increase of $30,000,000 in the Army National Guard `Operation and maintenance' appropriation and $10,000,000 in the `National Guard and Reserve Equipment' appropriation for Distance Learning programs. Among these programs, the Committee recognizes that the Consolidated Interactive Virtual Information Center (CIVIC), during its first year, expanded the network capabilities of the National Guard, and enhanced development, testing and training in Advanced Distributed Learning, Joint Interoperability and Command and Control systems. The Committee directs the National Guard Bureau to consider the CIVIC program for continuation using funds provided here and recommends its inclusion in the fiscal year 2003 budget request.

COMMITTEE RECOMMENDED ADJUSTMENTS
The following table details the adjustments recommended by the Committee:
| [In thousands of dollars] | |
| Budget Activity 1: Operating Forces: | |
| 10 B-1 Flying Hours | +100,000 |
| 30 Eagle vision | +10,000 |

| Defense Systems Evaluation | +2,500 |
| Bangor International Airport runway repairs | +10,000 |
| Total adjustments | +131,000 |
B-1 Bomber Flying Hours- The Committee recommendation restores the B-1 Bomber flying hours of the Air National Guard as discussed elsewhere in the report.
North Smithfield Air National Guard Station- The Committee is concerned with the possible contamination of the groundwater in the area of the North Smithfield Air National Guard Station in Rhode Island. In cooperation with the local community, the Air Guard shall assist in residential water well sampling during the development of the Remedial Investigation and Feasibility Study. This assistance shall not constitute an admission of liabilty by the National Guard.
120th Fighter Wing training range- Of the funds available, $1,000,000 shall be only for the development and maintenance of a training range for the 120th Fighter Wing, Montana Air National Guard.
F-16 arresting cables.--The Committee recommends the Air National Guard allocate $1,800,000 for arresting cables necessary for the operation of F-16 aircraft at the Des Moines airport. These funds are urgently needed because failure to build them during this fiscal year in conjunction with ongoing civilian construction will result in difficulty for the F-16's to fly missions related to homeland security.
OVERSEAS CONTINGENCY OPERATIONS TRANSFER FUND
| Appropriations, 2001 | $3,938,777,000 |
| Budget estimate, 2002 | 2,844,226,000 |
| Committee recommendation | ........................... |
The Committee recommends no appropriation for this account. This is $2,844,226,000 below the budget estimate.
Instead, the Committee is providing $2,243,996,000 for Balkan operations within the service operation and maintenance accounts. The Committee commends the Department of Defense for recognizing that Operations Southern Watch, Northern Watch and Desert Spring are planned operations, not contingencies. As such, the Defense Department has requested funding for these operations within the service accounts instead of under OCOTF. The Committee observes that this reasoning obtains equally for operations in the Balkans, and, therefore, recommends funding for such activities in the service accounts as well.
The total recommended for OCOTF is $600,104,000 below the budget request. The Committee notes that in fiscal years 2000 and 2001 the Fund contained unobligated balances of $338,000,000 and $200,000,000, respectively, while U.S. forces in the Balkans were being reduced. The Committee expects further reductions will occur in fiscal year 2002, reducing costs. Additional savings are achievable through better planning and scheduling for the use of airlift assets, according to the GAO.
The Committee remains concerned regarding the failure of the Defense Department to provide adequate oversight for OCOTF funding. The Defense Department has allowed the services to use funds in this appropriation for routine base operations, real property and depot maintenance, and planned training. The General Accounting Office concluded that for fiscal year 2000 only 13 percent of OCOTF expenditures were committed to the direct costs of operations. The Committee suggests that better accountability and the elimination of redundant and questionable costs for information technology, contractor support, temporary duty travel and base operations support at home stations will derive additional savings in fiscal year 2002. The Committee expects that the allocation of the funding directly to the services in fiscal year 2002 and beyond will also improve financial accountability.

COMMITTEE RECOMMENDED ADJUSTMENTS
The following table details the adjustments recommended by the Committee:
| [In thousands of dollars] | |
| Weapons Storage--Russia | -26,000 |
| Elimination of Weapons Grade Plutonium Production--Russia | -20,000 |
| Total adjustments | -46,000 |
The Committee recommends a reduction of $46,000,000 to the budget request. Several aspects of the program have experienced important delays which have led to large unobligated balances. For example, unobligated balances for the military contacts program exceed $11,000,000, for the elimination of weapons grade plutonium, $58,000,000, and for weapons storage security, $90,000,000. Total unobligated balances available to the Cooperative Threat Reduction program exceed $700,000,000. If, during fiscal year 2002, the Department is able to improve program execution, the Committee will consider any request to reprogram funds from other unobligated balances.

TH-67 helicopters- The Committee recommends $34,100,000 for the procurement of 21 helicopters in support of Army requirements for additional training aircraft.
CH-47 modifications- The Army has delayed the low-rate initial production of the CH-47F to fiscal year 2003 as a result of re-baselining the CH-47F program. The Committee therefore recommends a reduction of $66,900,000 for production costs.
Longbow fire control radar- The Committee recommends a reduction of $8,200,000 for the procurement of fire control radars, to the fiscal year 2001 level.
Longbow advance procurement- The Committee recommends a reduction of $3,300,000 for the procurement of airframes to the fiscal year 2001 procurement level.
GATM reductions- The Committee recommends reductions for fixed and rotary wing of $6,500,000 and $9,500,000 respectively, and directs that planned fourth quarter 2002 procurement be delayed to the first quarter of fiscal year 2003.
Aviator's night vision imaging system- The Committee recommends $$2,500,000 be provided for procurement of additional aviator night vision imaging systems.
Tactical Airspace Integration System- The Committee recommends a reduction of $12,000,000, which reflects the full rate production delay decision made by the Department of the Army.
UH-60 Blackhawks- The Committee recommends an additional $102,500,000 for the procurement of 10 Blackhawks for the Army National Guard. This funding is provided in the `National Guard and Reserve Equipment' appropriation.

Guided MLRS Rocket- The budget requests $8,480,000 for long lead procurement items. The Committee disagrees with this request and is concerned about the developmental challenges the system is incurring, especially that of the treaty required self-destruct fuze. Until such challenges are overcome, the Committee feels long lead funding for the system is premature.
MLRS Launchers- The budget requests $148,294,000 to continue upgrading the current MLRS launcher system. However, the Committee is concerned about the execution difficulties the program is experiencing and understands that the Army is reviewing its overall requirement for the legacy system. In light of these issues and the capabilities the follow-on system, HIMARS, promises, the Committee holds that the procurement strategy should be redirected, to focus on fielding HIMARS to the active duty forces and the corrected MLRS Launcher to the National Guard units. Therefore, the Committee recommends $138,294,000 in fiscal year 2002 funding provided only for procurement of launchers for National Guard units.
ITAS/TOW Mods- The budget requests $96,204,000 to accelerate procurement of the ITAS. The Committee is concerned about the problems associated with the battery/power system (BPS) and the significant delay in system fielding and delivery that has resulted. Therefore, the Committee disagrees with the procurement acceleration and recommends an appropriation of $61,204,000, a reduction of $35,000,000 to the President's budget request.
MLRS Mods- The Committee is concerned that the program is under executing previously provided funds and recommends an appropriation of $13,599,000, a reduction of $10,000,000 from the President's budget request.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Overview- Enhancing the Department of Defense's efforts to transform the military is one of the Committee's key priorities for this year's bill. As such, the recommendations in this and other appropriations fully fund Army transformation programs that support the development and fielding of the Interim and Objective forces. Additionally, the recommendations provide robust increases for many of the Army's Legacy system programs, as compared to last year's funding levels. The Committee anticipates that the Army will continue striving to achieve the appropriate balance between funding Legacy systems modernization and transformation and commits to working with the Army to strike that balance.
Bradley base sustainment- To achieve a more economically sensible production ramp for the Bradley A3 program, the Committee recommends a reduction of $27,600,000 to the Service request. The funding level approved allows the Army to procure 130 Bradley A3 vehicles, an increase of 21 vehicles over last year's level. The Committee strongly encourages the Army to continue supporting the Bradley A3 multiyear program by requesting sufficient funding to complete the purchase of the 389 vehicles under contract.
Legacy Systems- The Committee recommendations provide robust increases for the Army's Legacy systems modernization program. Nonetheless, reductions were made to several programs for which the proposed increases significantly exceeded reasonable or typical levels found in comparable programs. For example, reductions were made in the FAASV PIP and M-1 Abrams tank modifications for this reason.
Heavy assault bridge (HAB)- The Committee recommendations eliminate funds requested for Heavy Assault Bridge vehicle purchases and associated overhead costs, a reduction of $41,100,000. Though the Army claims that procurement of these HAB vehicles is essential for Army Legacy force operations, a lack of commitment to the program is clearly reflected in the Army's minimal HAB procurement request. Thus, the Army's proposed purchase plan--one well below any reasonable economic sustaining rate--has resulted in significant unit cost increases in these vehicles. Should the Army choose to pursue this program, the Committee strongly urges that sufficient funding be allocated in its fiscal year 2003 budget request to sustain a reasonable procurement profile.
Arsenal Support Program Initiative- The Committee proposes an increase of $5,000,000 to provide incentives for the Army and commercial companies to work jointly to preserve critical arsenal production facilities. In particular, these funds should be targeted for developing commercial practices to address ever increasing plant maintenance costs.
Fluidized rubber.--Of the funds made available for Bradley Base Sustainment, $6,000,000 shall be allocated to the RRAD Fluidized Rubber program.

CTG 40mm- The Committee recommends $29,395,000 a reduction of $20,000,000 to the President's budget request. The Committee is concerned with chronic under execution of funds and encourages the Army to better budget for its 40mm needs.
Modular Artillery Charge System- The Committee recommends an appropriation of $47,413,000, a reduction of $40,000,000 to the President's request. The Committee believes acceleration of the program is unwarranted until further decisions are made regarding the Crusader system. In addition, acceleration in procurement does not provide the expected unit cost savings.
Conventional Ammunition Demilitarization- The Committee is concerned that funding requested for the program has eroded since fiscal year 1996. A robust and stable demilitarization program remains necessary to deal with the growing stockpile of obsolete/surplus munitions. The Committee commends the development and execution of environmentally sound methodologies for the demilitarization program. However, the program is far less efficient and economic at both military and private sector facilities without proper funding. Therefore, the Committee recommends disapproving the Department's omnibus request to reprogram $4,000,000 from the program and instructs the Army to more appropriately fund ammunition demilitarization.
HYDRA-70 Rocket- The Committee understands that the Army has a robust requirement for the HYDRA-70 2.75-inch rocket, which provides fire suppression and carries out precision strikes. The Committee is concerned about reports that the program will be prematurely terminated before full development of the Advanced Precision Kill Weapon System (APKWS), not expected to be fielded until fiscal year 2006. The Committee directs the Secretary of the Army not to take any action that could have an adverse impact on current HYDRA-70 production.

Semitrailer Van Cargo- The Committee does not recommend funding the $7,300,000 requested for the M129A2C as the Army previously reported that its acquisition needs for the platform had been fulfilled. In addition, the Committee feels procurement of the current trailer should be curtailed as the more capable follow-on trailer is scheduled for production in fiscal year 2003.
STAR-T- The Army terminated the STAR-T program in fiscal year 2001, however the President's budget requests $16,951,000 in funding for fiscal year 2002. While the Committee understands that the Army's requirement for an operable system remains, the Committee is concerned that the Army reprogramed approximately $9,900,000 in previously provided funding out of the program and subsequently requested funding for fiscal year 2002. The Committee recommends the Army make a suitable determination regarding the program's future before additional funding is requested.
Tactical Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (TUAV)- The Committee recommends a reduction of $35,800,000 since the Shadow 200 has not successfully completed operational testing. While the Committee supports the Army's requirement for a follow-on TUAV to replace HUNTER, the system's viability needs to be validated prior to purchasing additional units.
Mortar Fire Control System- The Committee recommends a $7,000,000 reduction to the President's budget request. While the capabilities the Mortar Fire Control System promises are encouraging, the software development continues to experience setbacks. Until such problems are rectified, the Committee recommends a slowing of procurement funding.
Stamis Tactical Computers- The Committee is aware of the Global Combat Support System restructuring that occurred during fiscal year 2001 and recommends a reduction of $13,000,000 to the President's budget request.

Overview- Due to concerns about an apparent lack of direction in the Navy's aircraft modernization program, the Committee's recommendations provide additional funds for training aircraft and maritime patrol aircraft modernizations. In particular, the Committee encourages the Navy to develop a cogent modernization program for its maritime patrol aircraft, since the bulk of this fleet of aircraft is quickly reaching block obsolescence. The Committee intends to work with the Navy over the coming months on this and other related issues.
V-22- The Committee recommends reducing the funding requested for V-22 aircraft purchases to the level approved by the Senate in the fiscal year 2002 National Defense Authorization bill. Funding also is reduced for advance procurement, spares, and modernization in a manner consistent with the reduction in aircraft purchase levels.
Training aircraft- Funding of $44,600,000 is recommended to purchase 16 JPATS training aircraft. The Committee expects the Navy to fund this program at economic production levels in the future. In addition, the Committee recommends an increase of $13,000,000 to purchase T-45 operational flight trainers.
Maritime patrol aircraft- Increases totaling $100,000,000 are provided to modernize selected Navy maritime patrol aircraft, to include the EA-6B, SH-60, EP-3, and P-3 aircraft programs.
P-3 PACT trainer- An increase of $6,000,000 is recommended to procure and install a fourth P-3 AIP partial aircrew coordination trainer for the Marine Corps air units VP 4, 9, and 47. This completes the coordination trainer requirement for these units, allowing crews stationed there to achieve the necessary levels of proficiency to conduct forward deployment operations.

Trident- The President's budget requests $559,042,000 for the Trident II program. Within this request is an additional $107,000,000 for the D-5 life extension program. The Committee is not opposed to the program, however, feels it is premature to invest such funding prior to the Department making a clear determination regarding the future of nuclear programs. Therefore, the Committee recommends a $50,000,000 reduction to the life extension program.
Aerial Targets- The President's budget requests $66,349,000 for aerial targets. The Committee understands however that the supersonic target, SSST is undergoing developmental challenges and recommends slowing procurement until such issues are resolved. Therefore, the Committee recommends a reduction of $7,500,000 to the request.
ITALD- Of the amount provided for drones and decoys, $20,000,000 is provided for the procurement of the Improved Tactical Air-Launched Decoy System.

Trident SSGN Conversion- The President's budget request included funding to begin the conversion of two Trident submarines into the SSGN configuration. The Committee recommends $279,440,000, an increase of $193,000,000 to the budget request, for acceleration of the Trident SSGN conversion program and to preserve the option to convert all four available Trident submarines into SSGN's. The Committee directs the Navy to conduct the required risk mitigation activities, design activities, and conversion planning for the SSGN in the Shipbuilding and Conversion account.
Cruiser Conversion- The President's budget requested $178,000,000 for Cruiser Conversion in Research and Development and Other Procurement accounts. The Committee recommends $458,238,000, an increase of $286,000,000 to the budget, in the `Shipbuilding and Conversion, Navy' account to accelerate the first Cruiser Conversion availability into fiscal year 2004. The Committee directs that all 27 Ticonderoga class AEGIS Cruisers should be modernized to include Theater Missile Defense, enhanced land attack and naval fire support capabilities. The Committee directs the Navy to conduct the required risk mitigation activities, design activities, and conversion planning for the Cruiser Conversion in the Shipbuilding and Conversion account.
LPD-17- The President's budget request included $421,300,000 in advance procurement funding for the LPD-17 program. The Committee has been informed by the Navy of significant changes to the LPD-17 program acquisition schedule. The Committee understands that the Navy will fund only one LPD-17 class ship in fiscal year 2003 and that the acquisition of two additional ships in fiscal year 2003 has been slipped into fiscal year 2004. Therefore, the Committee recommends an appropriation for advance procurement for the LPD-17 program of $155,000,000, a reduction of $266,300,000 to the budget request. The Committee directs the Secretary of the Navy to include in the submission of the fiscal year 2003 Shipbuilding and Conversion budget request an explanation of what acquisition strategy the Navy is pursuing with regard to the LPD-17 program.
T-AKE- The President's budget request included $370,800,000 for procurement of one T-AKE class ship. The Committee notes that while the full budget requests for the first two ships of the class were appropriated in fiscal year 2000 and fiscal year 2001, the Navy has awarded a contract for these two ships. Moreover, the Navy had submitted a reprogramming request, which the Committee approved, for an additional $73,000,000 for the first two ships because the budgeted amount for these two ships was insufficient to award a construction contract. The Committee is concerned with the inability of the Navy to budget sufficient funds for the program and that award of a construction contract for the T-AKE program was 2 years behind schedule. Due to the significant delay in the contract award for the program and the apparent cost growth, the Committee recommends a reduction of $370,800,000 to the budget request for the fiscal year 2002 T-AKE. The Committee continues to support the T-AKE program and expects the Secretary of the Navy to ensure adequate funding for the T-AKE program in future budget requests.
Prior Year Shipbuilding- The President's budget request includes $800,000,000 for prior year shipbuilding costs. The Committee provided an additional $75,000,000 for LPD-17 cost overruns in Public Law 107-148. Therefore, the Committee recommends an appropriation of $725,000,000 for prior year shipbuilding, a reduction of $75,000,000 to the budget request.
The Committee has been informed that the total funding required for prior year shipbuilding cost growth over the future years defense plan is estimated to be $3,000,000,000. The Committee finds this to be an unacceptable situation. The Committee remains concerned that Navy shipbuilding is plagued by a lack of management attention that includes poor cost estimating, a lack of fiscal discipline in the change order process, and a practice of budgeting less than estimated cost, as well as poor contractor performance. The Committee's confidence in the Navy's ability to efficiently carry out the important programs that are contained in the future shipbuilding plan is eroding. Therefore, the Committee directs that $400,000,000 of the funds provided for prior year shipbuilding shall not be obligated or expended until the Secretary of the Navy provides the Appropriations Committees with a report on the specific corrective actions he plans to take to ensure that future SCN budget requests do not require additional funding in a prior year cost growth budget line.

C-17A (MYP)- The President's budget request included $2,875,800,000 for the procurement of 15 C-17A aircraft in fiscal year 2002. The Committee believes that there is a requirement for increased airlift and an opportunity to achieve savings with a follow-on multi-year procurement. Therefore, the Committee recommends an additional $143,000,000 in advance procurement funding to initiate a follow-on C-17 multi-year procurement program.
C-130J- The President's budget request included $221,809,000 for the procurement of 2 C-130J aircraft. The Committee recommends transfer of one of these aircraft to the `National Guard and Reserve Equipment' account.
CV-22- The President's budget request included $136,500,000 in procurement funding for the CV-22. The Committee recommends no procurement funding for the CV-22.
B-1 Lancer- The Committee recommends realignment of B-1 funding as requested by the Secretary of the Air Force in a letter to the Committee dated August 30, 2001. The realignment is as follows:
| Aircraft Procurement, Air Force | -$57,800,000 |
| Research, Development, Test, and Evaluation, Air Force | -42,200,000 |
| Operation & Maintenance, Air National Guard | +100,000,000 |
Senior Scout- The Committee recommends an additional $14,540,000 for various upgrades to allow full integration of the Senior Scout system into the larger Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance (ISR) architecture. These improvements include $3,300,000 for the purchase and installation of JTIDS capability, $820,000 to update the data mission management processor, $2,800,000 and $1,620,000 to modernize the third Senior Scout shelter and ground station respectively, and $6,000,000 to install the automated COMINT search and collection system.
E-8 JSTARS- The Committee has been informed that the President's budget request contains a substantive error. To correct the error, the Committee recommends a transfer of $11,500,000 from JSTARS aircraft procurement modifications to JSTARS research and development for system development, including $5,700,000 for SATCOM kit development and $5,800,000 for GATM integration efforts.
Combat Search and Rescue (CSAR)- Last year the conferees on the fiscal year 2001 Department of Defense Appropriations Act took note of initiatives to consider replacement aircraft for the Combat Search and Rescue (CSAR) mission, including the EH-101 helicopter. The Committee is aware that the Air Force recently concluded that it needed a new, medium-lift helicopter for the CSAR mission. The Committee is also aware of the increasing expenses associated with an aging helicopter fleet, and is also concerned about the effectiveness and costs associated with reliance on a Service Life Extension Program (SLEP). The Committee believes the Air Force should examine whether the operational fielding of the replacement helicopter should be accelerated and recommends that the Air Force consider `fly before you buy' alternatives presently available.

GPS Nuclear Detonation System- In Public Law 107-40, the Congress directed that all future funding for GPS NUDET be budgeted for in the `Missile Procurement, Air Force' account. Therefore, the Committee recommends an appropriation of $19,066,000 in `Missile Procurement, Air Force'.
Titan Space Boosters- The President's budget request included $385,298,000 for Titan Space Boosters. The Committee believes that the Air Force has budgeted in excess of requirements in fiscal year 2002 for Titan. Therefore, the Committee recommends an appropriation of $355,298,000, a reduction of $30,000,000 to the budget request.
Space-Based Infra-Red System (SBIRS) High (AP)- The President's budget request included $93,800,000 in advance procurement funding for SBIRS High and $54,300,000 in Other Procurement, Air Force for the procurement of hardware associated with a back-up ground station. The Committee has been informed by the Air Force that a recently concluded SBIRS Critical Design Review (CDR) produced unsatisfactory results. These results include a potential cost growth of $2,000,000,000 over the next 5 years and a 3-year delay in the Initial Operational Capability of the system. The Committee is dismayed that a program that is so important to the national security and has had four replans in the last 5 years continues to have such poor cost and schedule performance. The continued problems with SBIRS (High) highlight the clear lack of systems engineering expertise in the Air Force and raises questions as to the Air Force's ability to take on added responsibilities for the acquisition and operations of complex space systems from other government agencies as recommended by a recent commission.
Based on the unsatisfactory results of the CDR, the Committee denies the entire request for procurement funding and recommends an additional $50,000,000 in the Research, Development, Test and Evaluation, Air Force appropriation for SBIRS (High) to begin to address program deficiencies. The Committee directs that none of the additional $50,000,000 may be obligated or expended until the Under Secretary of the Air Force provides the Committee with a detailed report on how these deficiencies occurred and a detailed plan for proceeding with the program that includes all corrective actions to be taken including establishing improved management processes as well as a plan to develop systems engineering expertise in the Air Force.

Teleports- The President's budget request included $97,351,000 for DoD teleports. The Committee understands that while each military service will own, operate and maintain their respective sites, procurement responsibility will reside with Defense Information Systems Agency (DISA). The Committee believes that it is not sound policy for a military service to be responsible for the operation of a system and not have the responsibility and accountability to procure upgrades for the system. Therefore, the Committee recommends transfer of these funds to the respective military services. The Committee also directs that future budget requests for teleports be included in the respective military service procurement accounts.
MH-47D conversion kits- The Committee recommends a reduction of $9,000,000 and directs the delayed procurement of one kit to fiscal year 2003.
Combat Talon II- The Committee recommends a reduction of $3,000,000 and directs a procurement level consistent with the fiscal year 2001 level.
CV-22 SOF modifications- The Committee recommends a reduction of $28,202,000, consistent with the overall program procurement delays.
Advanced SEAL Delivery System (ASDS)- The Committee recommends an additional $10,000,000 to correct design flaws in the current silver zinc battery system utilized in ASDS Number One and to accelerate the development of lithium ion battery technology. Also, the Committee is aware of the decision to delay the advance procurement of ASDS Number Two until fiscal year 2003. Reductions of $4,500,000 and $1,511,000 are recommended for GFE and the transporter vehicle respectively.
Hydrographic Reconnaissance Littoral Mapping Device- The Committee directs a reduction of $1,168,000 due to contracting delays in fiscal year 2001.
Environmentally-friendly Magnesium Coating- The Committee directs the Department of Defense, in coordination with the Environmental Protection Agency, to complete a review by June 30, 2002, regarding the benefits of switching to AMS-2466 from AMS-2476B and AMS-497C for improved corrosion protection of magnesium castings and to eliminate hexavalent chromium, a known carcinogen. This review should include a comparison of the corrosion resistance of the AMS-2466 anodic coating used on the F-119 engine with the corrosion resistance of the anodic coatings on other military hardware. If AMS-2466 is shown to be superior, the Committee directs the Department to specify its use as the standard coating for magnesium parts whenever it is cost effective to do so.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Overview- The Army's leadership position in the push to transform our military is readily apparent in the Army's research and development priorities. The Committee commends the Army's efforts. To support these efforts, the Committee's recommendations fully fund all Future Combat System research and development and related activities. Further, those programs dedicated to improving the individual soldier's protection and ability to maneuver on the battlefield are fully funded. And finally, to enhance Army transformation, the Committee recommends increases in funding for programs to develop composite materials, more effective munitions, combat vehicle technology, better individual and platform power generation systems, and improved urban warfare technologies.
Composite Materials Research- The Committee recommends an increase of $5,000,000 for composite materials research to support development of the Army's Future Combat System. A portion of this increase--$826,000--should be allocated to the Army's Materials Center of Excellence program to continue this center's ongoing research into lightweight, multi-functional composite materials.
Biosystems technology- The Committee recommends an increase of $5,000,000 under the heading `Warfighter Advanced Technology' for biosystems-derived food, fiber, textile, biomedical, industrial, environmentally compatible products and services, and small-scale distributed systems. These products and systems will meet military and civilian needs under the cooperative management of the U.S. Army Natick Soldier Center and the U.S. Department of Agriculture Sustainable Economic Activity program.
Infrastructure sustainment- Of the amount provided in `Army Missile Defense Systems Integration', $4,000,000 shall be made available only for sustainment and modernization of infrastructure at Fort Greely, Alaska.
JCALS- The Committee recommends an additional amount of $12,000,000 for the JCALS program to extend improved technical data to the warfighter/tactical user and to facilitate greater support and training for the user community. The Committee intends to work with the Army to ensure JCALS evolves into a more open, Internet-based architecture.
Starstreak-Stinger operational test- The Committee recommends a total of $16,000,000 for the Starstreak-Stinger operational test program; $14,000,000 of this amount should be used to conduct the live-fire, side-by-side operational test of the Starstreak and Block 1 Stinger missiles for the AH-64D Apache helicopter. The remaining $2,000,000 should be made available to conduct test firing from the Apache against ground targets such as light armored vehicles.
Tactical Exploitation System (TES)- The Committee recommends a reduction of $11,200,000 to the Tactical Exploitation System, since the initiation of engineering development for TES Number 5 Forward will not likely commence until fiscal year 2003.
Crusader- The Committee recommends full funding for the Crusader artillery program, despite concerns about delays in meeting gun and software development targets that the program has experienced. The Committee directs the Secretary of Defense to fully inform the Committee in the fiscal year 2003 Defense budget request about the Crusader's development progress relative to the baseline currently set for the program, and provide an estimate of any additional funding requirements and development efforts needed to meet future milestones--especially for the gun and software elements of the program--and a risk analysis of the capabilities eliminated from the Crusader to meet modified weight requirements.
Abrams-Crusader Common Engine (ACCE)- The Committee recommends a reduction for the Abrams-Crusader Common Engine of $45,972,000 in light of the delays and execution difficulties experienced by the program. Still, the recommendation provides sufficient funding to allow for a 50 percent increase in the program over last year's level.
Patriot Ground Service Life Extension program (SLEP)- The Patriot Ground SLEP is designed to repackage the Patriot air defense system into a more mobile, C-130 transportable system. This effort could lead to a 60 percent reduction in the strategic airlift requirements to deploy a Patriot mission essential package. The Committee's recommendations add $7,600,000 to the Service request for this program.
Global Combat Support System- Though supportive of the concept, the Committee is concerned that insufficient progress has been made in this program to develop a widely accepted, comprehensive plan for integrating all related service activities and program elements into a truly joint activity. The Committee intends to work with the military services to ensure this program does not suffer the same fate that other cross-service logistics and support efforts suffered; namely, victims of service rivalries and `stovepipe' mentalities.
Non-Discarding Sabot Technology- The Committee is encouraged by recent research being conducted by the Army in the area of high-energy, high-velocity projectiles capable of enhanced barrel life, extreme velocities and improved accuracy. The Committee directs that of the funds available in the Army Test Ranges and Facilities, $1,000,000 be made available for the continued testing of the non-discarding sabot technology.

Navy research and development budget justification material- The Committee agrees with the report of the Senate Armed Services Committee concerning the quality of the budget justification material provided to the Congress. The Committee directs the Secretary of the Navy to ensure that all future budget justification materials provided to the Committee comply with the requirements set forth in the Department of Defense Financial Management Regulations. The Committee recommends approval of the program element structure as proposed in the President's budget request, however, the Committee will reassess this position based on the quality of the justification material provided in the fiscal year 2003 budget request.
Littoral surface craft (Experimental) LSC(X)- The President's budget request included $20,000,000 for the development and demonstration of an experimental craft for littoral support operations. The Committee recommends $20,000,000 for this effort. The Committee also directs that the LSC(X) program be executed by the Office of Naval Research.
Deployable joint command and control- The President's budget request included $50,000,000 for a new start effort to develop a future command center. The Committee does not recommend funding for this new start program due to a lack of program justification and uncertainty as to the availability of outyear funding.
Navy Area Missile Defense- The President's budget request included $388,496,000 for Navy Area Missile Defense in Research and Development, Navy. The Committee recommends transfer of these funds to the Research and Development, Defense-wide account.
DD-21 Land Attack Destroyer- The President's budget request included a total of $643,500,000 for the DD-21 program. The Committee notes that the Navy had planned to award a contract for the DD-21 in April 2001. Contract award has not yet occurred and after months of waiting for the Secretary of Defense's strategic review and the Quadrennial Defense Review, it seemed that a decision to proceed with the DD-21 had been postponed indefinitely. Now the Committee has been informed that the DD-21 program has been changed to the DD(X) program and that a revised Request for Proposal has been issued with a down-select to a single industry team next spring. The Committee is dismayed that the DoD would delay the transformation of the surface Navy in the name of a new acquisition strategy. Therefore, based on the continued delay and lack of focus in the program, the Committee recommends a reduction of $80,000,000 in the SC-21 Total Ship System Engineering line for the DD-21. The Committee directs that the Deputy Secretary of Defense submit a report to the Committee by March 2002 which details the following:
(1) Any change in the cost and performance requirements defined in the DD-21 Operational Requirements Document (ORD) as the program changes to the DD(X) program;
(2) Notification of any of the integrated DD-21 technologies that the department considers not to be transformational.
Military Dental Research- The Committee recommends $4,000,000 for military dental research. From within these funds, up to $2,000,000 may be made available for the development of three different diagnostic testing devices to rapidly assess anthrax exposure or immunization.
Advanced Deployable System (ADS)- The Committee recognizes the importance of the ADS in enhancing the Navy's expeditionary warfare capability and ability to execute its forward presence mission and recommends an additional $7,500,000 for the application of fiber optic technology to the ADS.
Joint Strike Fighter (JSF)- The President's budget request included $1,536,800,000 for the Joint Strike Fighter in both the Navy and Air Force research and development budgets. The Committee recommends a reduction of $247,200,000 to the budget request, evenly divided between the Navy and Air Force budget requests and an additional $30,000,000 for each service to transition to the engineering and manufacturing development (EMD) phase of the program consistent with the recommendation of the Senate Armed Services Committee.
Lightweight 155mm Howitzer (LW155)- The President's budget request included $18,203,000 for the LW155. The Committee has been informed that LW155 program is being restructured by the Department because the Engineering and Manufacturing Development (EMD) guns have been determined to be not suitable for operational testing. The Committee understands that the program will be restructured to provide `production representative' guns for operational testing and to mitigate the risk of transitioning to production. Due to the schedule delays associated with the restructure, the Committee recommends an appropriation of $8,203,000 for the LW155, a reduction of $10,000,000 to the budget request.
NAVIS, TIS Demonstration- In an effort to assist the Navy in ensuring an on-time delivery of a next generation real-time reconnaissance imagery receiving and display system, the Committee recommends that of the funds available for the Office of Naval Research, up to $2,000,000 may be made available to build additional Navy Input Station (NAVIS) ground stations that meet emergent operational requirements and provide risk mitigation for the Tactical Input Segment (TIS). These additional units can then be used to conduct a side-by-side comparison of the TIS and NAVIS ground stations. The data obtained from this test shall be included as part of the operational testing and evaluation data used by the Navy to determine which system, in which configuration will best meet the current and future needs of the fleet.
Testing Polymer Samples for Anti-corrosion coatings- The Committee recommends funds for the Office of Naval Research to support an EPSOR university with proven capabilities in polymers and coatings to demonstrate a new proprietary commercial technology that can cost-effectively accelerate the screening of polymer samples for new anti-corrosion coatings.

Space Based Radar (SBR)- The President's budget request included $50,000,000 for a new start Space Based Radar Program. The Committee is concerned that at a time when Air Force space programs are generally underfunded and experiencing cost and schedule difficulties, that the Air Force would propose to begin a new start program that is not well defined and for which sufficient outyear funding has not yet been identified. The Committee is also concerned that the program proposes to fund research activities that are duplicative of on-going efforts in other DOD agencies. Therefore, the Committee recommends $25,000,000, a reduction of $25,000,000 to the budget request. The Committee further directs that the Under Secretary of the Air Force/Director of the National Reconnaissance Office establish a joint program office to define a viable SBR program including its relationship to the Future Imagery Architecture as well as other Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance space systems.
Extended Range Cruise Missile (ERCM)- The President's budget request included $40,235,000 for the Extended Range Cruise Missile. The Committee notes that in the fiscal year 2001 Defense Appropriations Act, the Congress provided $40,000,000 for the ERCM. The Department of Defense declined to execute the funds as appropriated for ERCM and instead used the funds as a source on the fiscal year 2001 Omnibus Reprogramming. The Department of Defense rational for not executing the program was that the Air Force was evaluating various cruise missile options and had not yet decided on which option to pursue. In addition, the Nuclear Posture Review, yet another study, was not completed and could impact which ERCM option to pursue. The Committee believes that the Department's rational for not executing the fiscal year 2001 funding remains valid, therefore the Committee recommends denial of the fiscal year 2002 ERCM funding request.
Small Diameter Bomb (SDB)- The President's budget request included $40,000,000 for the Small Diameter Bomb. The Committee notes that in the fiscal year 2001 Defense Appropriations Act, the Congress provide $12,000,000 for the SDB program and that an additional $13,000,000 was provided in Public Law 107-148, a fiscal year 2001 Supplemental Appropriations Act. The Air Force has recently awarded contracts for the initial design phase of the program at the end of fiscal year 2001. Due to the delayed contract award, the fiscal year 2001 funding will execute during fiscal year 2002. Therefore, the Committee recommends $25,000,000, for the SDB program in fiscal year 2002, a reduction of $15,000,000 to the budget request.
Joint Strike Fighter (JSF)- The President's budget request included $1,536,800,000 for the Joint Strike Fighter in both the Navy and Air Force research and development budgets. The Committee recommends a reduction of $247,200,000 to the budget request, evenly divided between the Navy and Air Force budget requests and an additional $30,000,000 for each service to transition to the engineering and manufacturing development (EMD) phase of the program consistent with the recommendation of the Senate Armed Services Committee.
Aging Aircraft- There is a critical need for improved methods of nondestructive evaluation of aging aircraft materials and the inspection of engine components. Significant civilian research efforts, funded in part by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), may be very helpful for military aircraft. The Committee directs the Air Force to consider establishing a substantial relationship with the FAA-established Airworthiness Assurance Center of Excellence (AACE) and its component elements. The Center has integrated the inspection, maintenance, and repair research efforts of the Center of Aviation Systems Reliability, the propulsion systems inspection research efforts of the Engine Titanium Consortium, and technology validation and transfer efforts of Sandia National Laboratories Airworthiness Assurance Validation Center under a single `virtual national laboratory' umbrella, along with eight core universities and over 100 affiliates. The Committee further directs that the Air Force report back to the Committees on Appropriations concerning this issue no later than April 1, 2002.
Information Assurance- The Committee recognizes the threat posed to U.S. Government and commercial computer networks and information. The Committee also recognizes the lead the U.S. Air Force has taken in network security and information warfare and the need to continue to improve their capability as well as develop joint procedures for all military services. Of the funds provided to the Air Force, the Committee provides $5,000,000 to establish a University/Government/business partnership teaching Information Assurance and conducting research into protection software, policies, procedures, legal requirements and hardware security.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Overview- The Committee's recommendations in this appropriation fully support the Department of Defense's efforts to transform the military and counter asymmetric threats. The President's request for basic research, advanced concept technology demonstrations, chemical and biological warfare programs, robotics, and counter-proliferation activities all are fully funded. The Committee also provides increases for programs in areas such as composite materials research, nanotechnology, and explosives demilitarization.
Bio-informatics research- An increase of $5,000,000 is recommended for the Department's Chemical and Biological Defense program to conduct bio-informatics research. These funds should be used to facilitate post-genomic and proteomic studies of medical issues related to bioterrorism.
Thin layered chromotopography- The Committee recommends an increase of $2,400,000 for chromotopography research under the heading `Explosives Demilitarization Technology'. A portion of this increase--$400,000--should be made available for bio-terrorism training.
Wafer-Scale planarization technology- Though multiple technologies to improve silicon and gallium arsenide microchips are being developed, concerns have been raised that insufficient attention is being paid to improving the associated planarization technologies. Therefore, the Committee recommends that, of the amounts provided for `Ballistic Missile Defense Technology' in this account, $3,000,000 shall be made available only for developing ultra-flat planarization technology.
Flexible JP-8 Pilot Plant- The Committee believes that the Flexible JP-8 pilot plant program technology can provide the U.S. military with an environmentally acceptable, single battlefield fuel produced within a military theater of operations. This program has the potential of greatly reducing the logistics support tail required for our deployed forces. Thus, the recommendations provide an additional $5,000,000 for a Flexible JP-8 pilot plant demonstration program.
Advanced concept technology demonstrations (ACTD)- Though the Committee fully supports this program, it is concerned that procedural complexities impede proper execution of the program, resulting in a significant backlog of prior year funds. The Department of Defense should re-examine the methods by which ACTDs are selected in order to ensure timely execution of the demonstrations. Otherwise, the goals for which the program was designed to achieve will not have been fully met. In addition, the Committee deletes funding requested for so-called `quick reaction projects', a reduction of $25,000,000. This request duplicates funding for the ACTD program.
Ballistic Missile Defense (BMD)- The Committee recommends funding for ballistic missile defense programs in this and the Missile Procurement, Army appropriation totaling $6,994,295,000, a reduction of $1,288,000,000 from the request, which is consistent with the aggregate level approved in the Senate version of the fiscal year 2002 National Defense Authorization bill. In addition, a general provision, section 8111, provides $1,300,000,000 for missile defense and/or counter-terrorism programs, also consistent with the fiscal year 2002 National Defense Authorization bill. To enhance congressional oversight of these programs, a more detailed program element structure has been established, to which all standard reprogramming procedures shall apply. The revised program element structure includes the transfer of the PAC-3, MEADS, and Navy Area BMD research and development programs into this appropriation.
Of the amount approved by the Committee for Ground-based Midcourse BMD programs, $15,000,000 shall be made available only for the Advanced Research Center to enhance computing and testbed facilities in support of missile defense. Also out of the amount appropriated for Ground-based Midcourse BMD programs, $4,000,000 shall be made available only for the Kauai Test Facility.
Computing systems and embedded software development- The Committee recommends reductions totaling $37,400,000 to this group of programs because of apparent duplication within various DARPA activities. The Committee intends to work with the agency to clarify the purposes and goals of its myriad computing and software develop programs.
Financial management- The Committee approves the Department of Defense's request of $100,000,000 to modernize its financial management systems and accounting functions. The Committee, however, cautions the Department against any extensive purchase of consultant services with these funds. The Committee directs the Secretary of Defense to provide to the Committees on Appropriations of the House and Senate details of the obligation, expenditure, and planned future uses of these funds in conjunction with the submission of the fiscal year 2003 Defense budget request.
Predator/Unmanned Ground Combat Vehicle- Of the amount provided to DARPA under the heading `Land Warfare Technology' in this account, a minimum of $3,000,000 shall be made available for the Perceptor and Unmanned Ground Combat Vehicle programs.
HELLAS- Of the amount provided under the heading `Foreign Comparative Testing' in this account, not less than $8,500,000 shall be made available for the HELLAS laser obstacle detection and warning system to be used by special operations forces.
UAV NAS integration- The Committee recommends $1,500,000 for the development of a single set of standards for operating UAV's in the National Airspace System, allowing military UAVs to deploy more quickly to national and international contingencies.
Superconducting processors development- The Committee recommends additional funding of $5,000,000 for the National Security Agency to develop superconducting processors for high-speed supercomputing and enhanced decryption needs.
COMBAT SENT- The Committee recommends an additional $18,000,000 for upgrades and improvements for the COMBAT SENT aircraft as follows; $4,500,000 for the Passive Airborne Ranging project, $8,000,000 for ultra-wideband prototype collection sensor project and $5,500,000 for the wideband mission planning & pre-processing software project.
Laser Additive Manufacturing- The Committee recommends an additional $6,000,000 under the heading `Industrial Preparedness' in this account to launch the Laser Additive Manufacturing initiative. The goal of this initiative is to investigate development of a rapid aerospace manufacturing plant that produces high performance military and commercial components via laser additive manufacturing.
Special Operations Force Acquisition- The Committee directs a transfer of $252,334,000 out of Program Element 1160444BB and redistributes these funds among the multiple program elements (PE) that contained these funds in fiscal year 2001. The Special Operations Command has continued to demonstrate a lack of budgetary detail focus and has consistently failed to provide sufficient justification on individual programs in a timely and complete format when requested. The Committee observes that any movement towards a compilation of programs into a single PE which provides even less detail than the current budget exhibits is unacceptable. Therefore, the Committee directs USSOCOM to reverse this amalgamation of PEs and further directs that no future consolidation of programs be attempted in any account without the express prior approval of the oversight committees.
Boron energy cell technology- The Committee directs the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) to make available $3,000,000 to investigate the use of Boron Energy Cell technology that uses radiation hardened semiconductor materials and radioactive isotope energy sources to support advanced DOD technology applications in long duration power generation and self-powered electronics. DARPA will also coordinate technology development with other agencies to exploit potential applications in micro-electro-mechanical-systems (MEMS) and nano-systems sensor and communication platforms that offer great potential in the war against terrorism and other 21st century military challenges.
Information Systems Engineering- The Committee strongly urges DARPA to focus a research and development effort on Information Systems Engineering (ISE) capabilities. The research effort should use the expertise of ICICX and others to develop methods for quantitative specification, analysis, and design of complete information systems able to adapt to changing missions and technology threats such as the Next Generation Information Environment. Such targeted research is critical to enable the engineering of large-scale information systems and for the Defense Department's transformation to network-centric operations. The Committee expects the Defense Information Systems Agency (DISA) to participate in the ISE research and development process with DARPA. The Committee directs DARPA to provide a full report on its plans to implement this research with the submission of the fiscal year 2003 budget request.
Space-based CEC- Of the amount provided for the Ballistic Missile Defense System T&E Segment, $15,000,000 is available only for at-sea CEC satellite relay testing and a leave-behind AAW capability, demonstration of THAAD engage-on-remote using CEC satellite relay, and demonstration of direct downlink of SBIRS sensor data on the CEC fire control network.
Arrow test bed- Of the amount provided for the Ballistic Missile Defense Terminal Defense Segment, $4,000,000 is provided only for the continued development and experiments on the Israel Test Bed and for system architecture and integration with the Arrow Weapon System.
Advanced lithography- The Committee has included an additional $5,000,000 only for x-ray mask research to support x-ray lithography efforts to build high performance semiconductor processors that will be used in advanced missile seekers, digital battlefield systems, electronic warfare arrays, and radar modules.
Miniaturized Wireless Systems- The Committee is aware that recent advances in 3-dimensional microelectronics integration and miniaturization, and transceiver performance can dramatically reduce the size, weight, power consumption, and cost of advanced military wireless communications systems. With a relatively modest development effort it is now possible to improve performance and to move such systems to much smaller air- and space-borne platforms and even to make them human-portable. Such footprint reduction should also open up new capabilities and opportunities for covert military and intelligence operations, especially HUMINT. Accordingly, the Committee directs the Department to initiate such a program with the Defense Microelectronics Activity in 2002 and include it in its fiscal year 2003 budget submission after consultation with the Committee.
Bio-adhesion- Of the amounts provided for the Department's Chemical and Biological Defense program, $4,000,000 shall be made available for bio-adhesion research.
Historical Black College research- The Committee includes $4,500,000 for the Army Logistics Integration Agency to fund a partnership between business and a Historical Black College to research and develop advanced digital technical manual processes, storage and design and educate students in the career field. The Committee recognizes an outstanding requirement for easy access to digital information for maintenance, operations and training of advanced military weapon systems.

Test, Evaluation, Science and Technology- The President's budget requests $16,000,000 to institute a new program whose mission will be to exploit new technologies to meet testing and evaluation mission support requirements. However, the budget request only provides $3,000,000 in offsets for the program, requesting the additional funds from the Congress. The Committee holds that if the Department is committed to the new start program, which seems duplicative to the extant Central Test and Evaluation Investment Program (CTEIP), it should identify the full amount of requested from within existing resources.

| Budget estimate, 2002 | 17,898,969,000 |

The Committee recommends an appropriation of $18,376,404,000. This is $477,485,000 above the budget estimate.
OVERVIEW
The Committee notes that the fiscal year 2002 budget request represents an unprecedented increase in resources for the Defense Health Program. The fiscal year 2002 DHP budget request is more than $6,300,000,000, or 54 percent, higher than the fiscal year 2001 request. While much of this increase is to fund the recently enacted `Tricare for Life' benefit for military retirees, it still represents a serious and welcome effort by the Department of Defense to more accurately state the fiscal requirements of the Military Health System, and then to fully fund those requirements.
In each of the past 2 years, the Congress has appropriated more than $1,500,000,000 to the DHP in supplemental funding. With a budget request that more realistically funds the DHP, supplemental appropriations in the year of execution should be unnecessary.
The Committee commends the Department of Defense for providing a fiscal year 2002 budget estimate that provides a more accurate, realistic assessment of the resources required to operate the Military Health System.
MILITARY MEDICAL TREATMENT FACILITIES
The Committee is very concerned that the Department of Defense has, over time and through a series of decisions on both force structure and base structure, reduced the number and capacity of military medical treatment facilities (MTFs) below a level that is operationally sound or fiscally prudent.
The primary mission of the Military Health System is to provide the unquestioned ability to meet the wartime needs of the Unified Combatant Commanders. To carry out this mission, the Department of Defense needs a robust and complete network of military MTFs, both stateside and overseas, that is fully sized, staffed and resourced to meet the surge capacity required in any wartime scenario. With the start of Operation Enduring Freedom, and a re-energized focus on homeland defense, the Committee is concerned that the Nation does not have enough military MTF capacity to respond to these challenging requirements.
The secondary mission of the Military Health System is to provide peacetime health care to eligible beneficiaries. With the start of `Tricare for Life' on October 1, 2001 the meaning and scope of this peacetime mission has changed dramatically. The cost implications of this new benefit are only beginning to be known, and will certainly add upward pressure to the already spiraling costs of health care experienced by DOD. With these changes, the Committee is convinced that DOD may be able to reduce the growth in health care costs by providing a greater share of medical care in military MTFs, rather than purchasing the care from outside networks.
The Committee directs the Secretary of Defense to provide a comprehensive report on this subject to the congressional defense committees no later than March 1, 2002. This report should respond fully to the Committee's concerns, evaluate the possibility of re-opening MTFs that were closed during BRAC, and include a detailed plan to increase the number, capacity and capability of military MTFs.

Hawaii Federal Health Care Network- The Committee recommends $18,000,000 for the Hawaii Federal Health Care Network. As part of that program, the Committee strongly supports an interactive computer system capable of sharing medical data between Tripler Army Medical Center and the Spark M. Matsunaga VA Medical Center. Because this would improve patient care and reduce administrative expenses, the Committee encourages DOD and DVA to prepare plans for using a computer system that links the pharmacy, radiology, and laboratory services of the two medical centers.
Real Property Maintenance- The Committee directs that of the funds available, $10,000,000 shall be available for real property maintenance at Keesler Medical Center, and $9,000,000 at Bethesda Naval Hospital. Funding for these Committee priorities shall be in addition to the real property maintenance levels for these activities as identified in the request.
Clinical Coupler Demonstration Project.--The Committee supports innovative technology that improves patient outcomes, and encourages the Department to incorporate clinical coupler medical software into the second phase of the Composite Health Care System (CHCS II). The Committee recommends $10,000,000 to conclude this demonstration project, and directs DOD to provide a progress report no later than June 1, 2002.
Tri-Service Nursing Research Program- The Committee recommends $6,000,000 for the Tri-Service Nursing Research Program. The Committee directs the Secretary of Defense to fully fund this program in the Department's fiscal year 2003 budget request.
Health Study at the Iowa Army Ammunition Plant.--The Committee is aware that the Department of Energy (DOE) has funded health surveys and testing of the former DOE nuclear weapons workers at the Iowa Army Ammunition Plant. However, the Committee is concerned that Army employees at the plant who were exposed to similar dangers are not receiving the same consideration. The Committee recommends $1,000,000 for a health study of current and former DOD workers at the Iowa Army Ammunition Plant, to be completed in conjunction with the ongoing study being conducted for the DOE.
Hepatitis B Vaccinations for all New Recruits.--The Committee understands military personnel are at increased risk for the serious bloodborne disease, hepatitis B, and that immunization against this disease has been shown to be cost effective. The Committee is disappointed that the Armed Forces Epidemiological Board's recommendation to vaccinate all military personnel against hepatitis B has not been carried out. From within funds provided, the Committee directs DOD to immunize all new recruits against hepatitis B.

National Prion Research Project- Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy (BSE), more commonly called `mad cow disease,' is a progressive, degenerative and fatal neurological disease of cattle. BSE is a new disease that was recognized and described for the first time in the United Kingdom in 1986. BSE has been reported in other European countries, but never within the United States.
In 1996, the consumption of meat products from cattle infected with BSE was implicated as a potential risk factor in the development of a newly recognized, fatal human neurological disease called variant Creutzfelt-Jakob Disease (vCJD). vCJD is a slow, degenerative disease of the central nervous system. The incubation period of vCJD is unknown, but is estimated to be 10 to 20 years, and there is currently no test to confirm the presence of the disease. A total of 107 cases of vCJD in humans have been confirmed worldwide, 102 of them in the UK, and no cases have been reported within the United States.
There is strong epidemiological and laboratory evidence suggesting that the same infectious agent causes both vCJD and BSE. While the exact nature of the infectious agent is unknown, the most accepted current theory is that the agent is a modified form of a normal cell protein known as a prion. Researchers think that contact between the prion and normal proteins in the brain causes the normal protein to change its shape and stop working. A prion is not a bacterium, parasite, or virus, and thus medicines used for treating or preventing bacterial or viral infections are not effective against prions.
Because of the considerable scientific uncertainly surrounding vCJD, drastic steps have been taken to stop the distribution of beef from countries with BSE, and significant restrictions have been imposed to ensure the continued safety of the Nation's blood supply. However, without a reliable test, it is impossible to determine if the disease has been transmitted to the United States. Further, members of the Armed Forces of the United States are stationed in Europe and elsewhere in the world where prion disease exists, and there is currently no way to assure complete protection for them from exposure to prion disease.
It is the Committee's view that prion disease represents a significant threat to our population if immediate action is not taken to develop a reliable test for prion disease for humans and animals. Therefore, the Committee establishes a National Prion Research Project and recommends an appropriation of $50,000,000 to initiate the first phase of this Project. The priority goal of the Project's first phase is to rapidly develop a diagnostic test to detect the presence of prion disease.
These funds are to be administered by the U.S. Army Medical Research and Material Command (USAMRMC). USAMRMC will use existing successful models for peer-reviewed medical research programs, leverage worldwide scientific expertise in prion research, and coordinate with other Federal agencies to develop complementary, and not duplicative, programs of research.
Further, the Committee urges the President to appoint a multi-agency, secretarial level Task Force to include the Departments of Health and Human Services, Agriculture, Defense, Commerce, and Energy. This Task Force should develop and submit to the Congress by May 1, 2002 a set of comprehensive recommendations for the longer-term activities and objectives of the National Prion Research Project.
Peer Reviewed Medical Research Program- The Committee has provided $50,000,000 for a Peer Reviewed Medical Research Program. The Committee directs the Secretary of Defense, in conjunction with the service Surgeons General, to establish a process to select medical research projects of clear scientific merit and direct relevance to military health.
Such projects could include: AIDS/HIV research; alcoholism research; blood related cancer research; a complex rAD-Vector vaccine for MGBV; chemo-preventive approaches to smoking related illnesses; childhood asthma; chiropractic care; closed loop frozen blood processing systems; Dengue Fever vaccine; high risk infectious diseases; Life Support for Trauma and Transport (LSTAT); low vision research; medical error reduction; medical free electron lasers; medications for fungal and bacterial infections; metabolically engineered tissues for trauma care; military nutrition research; a National Functional Genomics Program; a National Tissue Engineering Center; neurofibromatosis; neurotoxin exposure; osteoporosis and related bone disease research; Padget's disease; polynitroxylated hemoglobin; pre-clinical and clinical activities of the Novonex/Ex-Rad drugs; radiation protection; real-time heart rate variability; self test methods of screening for cervical cancer; smoking cessation; social work research; the Counter Narcotics Tactical Operations Medical Support Program (CONTOMS); virtual retinal display scanning technology; and Volume Angio CAT (VAC) research.
The Committee directs the Department to provide a report by March 1, 2002, on the status of this Peer Reviewed Medical Research Program.
ADDITIONAL ITEMS OF INTEREST
Post-Doctoral Education- The Committee directs the Department to increase and consolidate post-doctoral education for psychologists in those military medical centers with independent departments of psychology.
Childhood Asthma and Disease Management- The Committee is concerned with limited progress in treating childhood asthma, a potentially devastating disease that leads to high utilization of medical resources. The Committee urges Tripler Army Medical Center's continued research on childhood asthma and encourages the expanded use of disease management protocols using automated patient record technology.
DVA and Tripler Telehealth Programs- The Committee urges further efforts to consolidate and coordinate the DVA and Tripler Telehealth Programs to ensure Federal telehealth resources are efficiently used.
Graduate Professional Education- The Committee continues to support the equitable distribution of DOD funds for graduate professional education to all health professions, including nursing.
DOD/DVA Distance Learning Pilot Project- The Committee is pleased with the success of the DOD/DVA distance learning pilot project for nurses transitioning to nurse practitioners and recommends its continuation.
Behavioral Research- The Committee continues to support research on individual and group performance, leadership, communication, human-machine interfaces, and decision-making.
Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetists- The Committee continues to support the current scope of practice of military Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetists (CRNAs). The Committee is aware that DOD and service instructions allow CRNAs to be privileged as licensed independent providers of anesthesia care. The Committee is also aware that `independent' means the CRNAs are legally responsible for care they render and does not imply unlimited scope of practice or a lack of professional oversight.
Schools of Pharmacy and Nursing- The Committee encourages the Department of Defense to continue collaborating with schools of pharmacy and nursing in their efforts to improve patient safety and reduce medical errors. The Committee urges DOD to explore all available resources to improve patient teaching regarding medication usage, side-effects, and treatment plans.
Technology Sharing- The Committee encourages Tripler Army Medical Center to plan for future sharing of technology and information with appropriate public and private sector organizations.
Health Professions Loan Repayment Program- The Committee urges the Department to fully fund the Health Professions Loan Repayment Program that was authorized in 1998 as an accession and retention tool to compliment the Health Professions Scholarship Program.
Tobacco Use Cessation.--The Committee is aware that tobacco use costs DOD millions of dollars every year in medical costs and lost productivity. While DOD has established ambitious goals to decrease tobacco use, it has not provided adequate resources to meet these goals. The Committee is disappointed that DOD has not yet incorporated smoking cessation programs in TRICARE Prime benefits, and has not aggressively pursued suggested pilot programs. The Committee urges the Department to expedite the availability of tobacco use prevention and cessation programs to all DOD personnel.
Chiropractic Care- The Committee supports the provision of chiropractic care at designated military treatment facilities, and expects expansion of this service as appropriate.
Pediatric-EMS- The Committee is impressed with the potential of virtual training modules and is aware of the accomplishments of USUHS in this area.
Integrated Pharmacy Programs- The Committee urges the DOD and DVA to expeditiously implement an seamless, integrated pharmacy program between Tripler Army Medical Center and the Spark M. Matsunaga VA Medical Center. Similar cost-effective collaborations are also encouraged.
DOD HIV Research Program- The Committee urges increased funding for the DOD HIV research program to develop HIV vaccines that are effective against the non-B virus subtypes found outside the United States and Europe. The Committee recognizes that DOD occupies a unique role in the Nation's HIV/AIDS research effort, and that the development of effective vaccines for non-B virus subtypes is critical to the health and safety of U.S. military personnel deployed abroad.
HIV/AIDS testing.--The Committee is aware that DOD spends significant amounts of money screening recruits and active duty service members for HIV/AIDS. The development of an oral fluids test, certified by the Food and Drug Administration for accuracy, may significantly reduce screening costs and eliminate the risk of accidental exposure for medical personnel. The Committee encourages DOD to explore the cost-saving benefits of oral fluid testing for HIV/AIDS.
Digital Human.--The Committee understands that the National Institutes of Health has been asked to take the lead on simulation research related to the development of a digital human. The Committee urges the DOD and the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) to coordinate efforts in this area with the National Institutes of Health.
Advanced Technologies in the Operating Suite- The Committee is aware of the potential of an applied technology test bed to evaluate advanced technologies in operating suites. This state-of-the-art operating facility would provide enabling technologies in information systems, patient safety, ergonomics, anesthesia, nurse and surgeon efficiency, and provide training in the use of these innovative technologies. The Committee directs the Army's Medical Research and Material Command (MRMC) to evaluate this advanced technology, provide a report to the Committee by March 1, 2002 and, if the project has considerable merit, include funding for it in future budget estimates.
CHEMICAL AGENTS AND MUNITIONS DESTRUCTION, ARMY
| Appropriations, 2001 | $980,100,000 |
| Budget estimate, 2002 | 1,153,557,000 |
| Committee recommendation | 1,104,557,000 |
The Committee recommends an appropriation of $1,104,557,000. This is $49,000,000 below the budget estimate.
The Chemical Stockpile Disposal Program provides resources to develop and test monitoring and disposal technology; equip, operate, and maintain disposal facilities; provide transportation of chemical agents and munitions onsite for disposal; dispose of all chemical agent destruction waste products; and decontaminate and dismantle all disposal equipment at the conclusion of toxic operations. The reduction is for advisory assistance, contract services, and program delays.
PROGRAM MANAGER FOR CHEMICAL DEMILITARIZATION
During April 2001, the Committee held hearings to review the budget request and schedule for the Chemical Demilitarization Program. Although an internal Army study completed in October 2000 (the fiscal year 2000 Operations Schedule Task Force assessment) had concluded that the planning factors used to determine cost and rates of destruction for chemical weapons were significantly understated, the Program Manager for Chemical Demilitarization and the then acting Secretary of the Army, testified that the United States stockpile would be destroyed not later then 2007. While this testimony creates the impression that the Army withheld information from the Senate, equally troubling to the Committee is that local community groups at stockpile locations and concerned citizens were provided misleading information as recently as August.
The Committee commends the Under Secretary of Defense for Acquisition, Technology and Logistics (USD AT&L) for convening a Defense Acquisition Board to review the Chemical Demilitarization Program. Unfortunately, the schedule developed by the Secretary's Cost Analysis Improvement Group reveals that the Army's fiscal year 2000 Operations Schedule Task Force may have been overly optimistic.
No later then January 15, 2002, the Under Secretary of Defense (AT&L) shall provide the Committee a status report of the Chemical Demilitarization Program. The Committee has deliberately reduced the reporting requirements imposed upon the Department in the bill. Nevertheless, the Chemical Demilitarization Program merits additional oversight. The report shall detail the latest schedule and cost estimate for completion of the program, an evaluation of the Army's incentive implementation plan, and an evaluation of the contract and advisory services costs attributable to the program. In addition the Office of the Secretary of Defense shall report no later then 7 days after the completion of each fiscal quarter the Army's progress in maintaining the schedule and cost estimate outlined in the above report.
In addition, the Committee directs the Secretary of Defense, as part of the fiscal year 2003 budget request, to report to the Committee a plan for restructuring the Demilitarization Program. This report shall include the following: a proposal for the restructuring of the Demilitarization Program that will provide for increased efficiency of resources and operations; proposals to restructure the Demilitarization Program at the execution (PMCD) level and above; details of how the recommendations contained in the plan will increase oversight at the Program execution level; and, details of how the implementation of the restructuring recommendations will ensure a higher level of Program accountability to citizens and the Congress.
Further, the Committee is aware of a proposal to create a new incentive program in an attempt to improve efficiencies within PMCD. While the Committee recognizes the need for dramatic change within PMCD, it is not convinced that a revised incentive program is the proper course of action. Therefore the Committee directs that no new incentive program be implemented until it has been approved by the Committee. None of the funds from this act may be used to pay bonuses or incentives to employees of PMCD prior to Congressional approval of the incentive program.
ANNISTON CHEMICAL DESTRUCTION FACILITY
The Committee's concerns extend to the management of the Chemical Demilitarization Program (CDP) and the Chemical Stockpile Emergency Preparedness Program (CSEPP). Of particular interest to the Committee is the concerns of State and local officials regarding administration of these programs. State and local officials in Alabama continue to work with the Army and FEMA to reach agreement on emergency preparedness measures.
None of the funds contained in the bill or previous Appropriations acts shall be used to commence destruction operations or any associated phase of operations at the Anniston Chemical Destruction Facility (ANCDF) until such time as the Under Secretary of Defense for Acquisition, Technology and Logistics, reports to the congressional defense Committees verifying that the safety concerns outlined below have been addressed and resolved to the majority agreement of the Under Secretary of Defense for Acquisition, Technology and Logistics, the Director of the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), the Governor of the State of Alabama and the Chairman of the Calhoun County Commission that the statutory requirement of `maximum protection' has been met for the communities surrounding ANCDF.
This report shall address the following safety concerns and shall be signed by each of the aforementioned officials signifying concurrence or dissent prior to submission to the Committees of jurisdiction: (a) Completion and evaluation of an updated toxicity standards study for each chemical agent stored at ANCDF; (b) Single automated information system development, procurement and installation; (c) 24-hour Emergency Operation Center (EOC) staffing; (d) emergency notification of `pink' emergency zone populations; (e) procurement, installation and systemization of emergency sirens; (f) procurement, installation and systemization of tone alert radios; (g) development and implementation of special needs population protection plans; (h) Collective Protection of facilities; (i) Medical Response; (j) protective action strategies to include the use of protective hoods, enhanced sheltering and evacuation; (k) the updating and automation of the Alabama Protective Action Recommendation (PAR) Guidebook; (l) Public information and education campaign; (m) Emergency planning support; (n) and, procurement of emergency response equipment for the Calhoun County Emergency Management Agency (CCEMA).
Emergency Preparedness- The Committee directs that from within funds available to the Program manager for Chemical Demilitarization, $1,000,000 shall be available for a study of the requirements for Defense access roads at Chemcial Demilitarization sites.
MAS Development- The Committee recommends an increase of $1,000,0000 in Research and Development above the request for MAS Development, Installation, Testing, Operations and upgrades at INEEL.
DRUG INTERDICTION AND COUNTER-DRUG ACTIVITIES, DEFENSE
| Appropriations, 2001 | $869,000,000 |

SEC. 8128. Aircraft Leasing- The Committee includes a new provision that would provide the Department of the Air Force authority to lease 100 aircraft for modification to air refueling tankers. This addresses a critical Air Force need to replace its aging fleet of tankers and coincides with an imperative to support our commercial and national security industrial base in the wake of the September 11th terrorist attacks.
The Committee believes the authority granted in this provision allows the Air Force to enter into an operational lease of the aircraft, and should be considered as such for scoring purposes under the Balanced Budget Act. First, the proposed provision is patterned after a general provision approved by the Congress in the fiscal year 2000 Defense Appropriations Act that was scored by the Congressional Budget Office as operational lease authority. Second, the proposed provision does not allow for purchase of the aircraft at a later date, nor does it provide authority for the lease to cover militarily significant modifications to the aircraft. And last, industry has demonstrated that a commercial market exists for air refueling tanker aircraft.
SEC. 8129. Camp McCain- The Committee includes a new provision concerning improvements at Camp McCain.
SEC. 8130. Broadway Armory- The Committee includes a new provision concerning Broadway Armory.

COMPLIANCE WITH PARAGRAPH 7, RULE XVI, OF THE STANDING RULES OF THE SENATE
Paragraph 7 of rule XVI requires that Committee reports on general appropriations bills identify each Committee amendment to the House bill `which proposes an item of appropriation which is not made to carry out the provisions of an existing law, a treaty stipulation, or an act or resolution previously passed by the Senate during that session.'
At the point when the Committee reports this measure, the Congress has not completed action on the Fiscal Year 2002 Defense Authorization Act. As a consequence, the Committee has acted in good faith in its attempt to comply fully with requirements stipulated under paragraph 7, rule XVI.
The Committee anticipates that Congress will authorize the amounts appropriated in this act.
COMPLIANCE WITH PARAGRAPH 7(C), RULE XXVI OF THE STANDING RULES OF THE SENATE
Pursuant to paragraph 7(c) of rule XXVI, the Committee ordered reported H.R. 3338, the Department of Defense Appropriations bill, 2002, subject to amendment, by a recorded vote of 29-0, a quorum being present. The vote was as follows:

COMPLIANCE WITH PARAGRAPH 12, RULE XXVI OF THE STANDING RULES OF THE SENATE
Paragraph 12 of rule XXVI requires that Committee reports on a bill or joint resolution repealing or amending any statute or part of any statute include `(a) the text of the statute or part thereof which is proposed to be repealed; and (b) a comparative print of that part of the bill or joint resolution making the amendment and of the statute or part thereof proposed to be amended, showing by stricken-through type and italics, parallel columns, or other appropriate typographical devices the omissions and insertions which would be made by the bill or joint resolution if enacted in the form recommended by the committee.'

Biometrics- In light of the events of September 11, 2001, the DoD Biometrics Program is encouraged to offer assistance and coordinate efforts with the U.S. Coast Guard, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), the Federal Emergency Management Administration (FEMA), the Immigration and Naturalization Service (INS), the U.S. Customs Service (Customs), and other Federal agencies. The Committee urges the FAA, FEMA, FBI, INS, Customs, and other Federal agencies to establish internal biometrics offices to coordinate their agency biometrics efforts and to interface with the DoD Biometrics Program. These internal biometrics offices should be established within each agency's information assurance organization. The Committee also encourages the DoD to study near-term mission requirements related to these recent events and to report back to the Committee no later than April 1, 2002.
Genomic Medicines.--Of the funds provided for emergency expenses to research, develop, and implement biological warfare drug therapies, the Committee believes that funding should be allocated for the development of a new class of genomic medicines for the treatment of acute and chronic disease, using programmable DNA-nanobinder technology that enables the rapid design of small molecules that target DNA as their receptor in order to develop a single therapeutic agent to protect against a broad spectrum of possible biological threat, including anthrax, small pox, tularemia, glanders, plague, VEE, and Ebola.
PROCUREMENT

SEC. 303. The Committee recommendation includes a general provision proposed by the Administration which provides compliance with section 504 of the National Security Act of 1947.
CHAPTER 4
SUBCOMMITTEE ON THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA
DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA
FEDERAL FUNDS
FEDERAL PAYMENT TO THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA FOR EMERGENCY RESPONSE AND PLANNING
The Committee recommends $200,000,000 to be used by the Government of the District of Columbia, the Washington Council of Governments and the Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority to further train, equip and prepare the District's first responders for future threats to security in the Nation's Capital. The Committee encourages the Office of Management and Budget to apportion these funds appropriately to meet capital infrastructure needs.
The Committee recognizes the unique relationship that exists between the city of Washington, D.C. and the Federal Government facilities and personnel that operate within the city. The District of Columbia provides a home to the Federal Government and in that capacity District police and fire departments protect and serve the Capital of the United States.
The Committee recommends $5,000,000 for the Metropolitan Washington Council of Governments to enhance emergency preparedness coordination among the law enforcement, public health and human services agencies of the entire region. The Committee is aware of the acute lack of coordination among the governments of the metropolitan Washington region prior to the September 11 terrorist attacks on the United States. The Committee believes that the most critical area of coordination is in developing a regional emergency operations and response plan where regional entities collaborate to ensure the safety of the region's residents and the operations of the Federal Government. The Committee directs the Council of Governments to facilitate efficient and integrated communications between local, State, and Federal Government leaders. In addition, the Committee directs the Council of Governments to identify and assess all of the training facilities in the region and provide such information to the governments of the District of Columbia and the contiguous counties of Maryland and Virginia. The Committee encourages local governments to access training opportunities offered in other jurisdictions. Finally, the Committee encourages the Metropolitan Washington Council of Governments to coordinate region-wide disease surveillance with the Federal Department of Health and Human Services, Public Health Service. The Council of Governments shall coordinate their involvement in emergency preparedness planning with the Federal Emergency Management Agency to maximize the effectiveness of this funding.
The Committee recommends that the District of Columbia examine technology used in other jurisdictions in their evaluation of security needs in the District of Columbia. The Committee is aware of technology which would enable rapid identification and analysis of biological agents by personnel or sensors in the field. This type of technology would allow District law enforcement personnel to quickly assess and respond appropriately to threats to health and security of the Nation's Capital.
The Committee is aware of the critical importance of communications to the police, fire, and emergency medical personnel who protect our Nation's Capital. The Committee further understands that the 800 MHz radio system for the D.C. Fire Department and Emergency Medical Service must be enhanced to provide improved coverage for the heightened demand they now face. These upgrades and improvements are designed to augment operational capability and dependability throughout the District. Due to increasing demands on these first responders, the Committee directs the District to use funds provided in this Act to make the appropriate improvements to the 800 MHz radio system and that the District notify the House and Senate Appropriations Committees within 60 days of enactment as to how it intends to make the necessary improvements.

CHAPTER 6
SUBCOMMITTEE ON THE INTERIOR AND RELATED AGENCIES
DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR
NATIONAL PARK SERVICE
OPERATION OF THE NATIONAL PARK SYSTEM
The Committee recommends $10,098,000 for Operation of the National Park System to respond to the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks on the United States. Of this amount, $6,098,000, as requested, is for increased security patrols and communications requirements at high profile locations and $4,000,000 is to reimburse the National Park Service for relocation of employees to accommodate national security requirements. These latter funds were requested by the Administration as part of the General Services Administration account. The Committee has recommended a direct appropriation to the National Park Service in lieu of channeling the funds through GSA.
U.S. PARK POLICE
The Committee recommends $25,295,000, as requested by the administration, for the National Park Service's U.S. Park Police to enhance preparedness for possible attacks against key national park sites in New York City and Washington, D.C. These include the Statue of Liberty, Ellis Island, the Washington Monument, the Lincoln Memorial, and the Jefferson Memorial. The U.S. Park Police also supports the U.S. Secret Service by providing security patrols around the White House perimeter and security escorts for Presidential, Vice-Presidential, and other motorcades in the Washington, D.C., area.
Funds are to be used for additional patrols in Washington, D.C. and New York City; security equipment upgrades around the Washington Mall, including an up-to-date card entry system; and to ensure that the U.S. Park Police can complete a third recruit class in fiscal year 2002, which is needed to maintain adequate force levels.
With respect to the training of new recruits, the Committee is concerned that the past practice of not sending any recruits for training until a full class complement of 24 is obtained is no longer viable under current circumstances. Indeed, the Committee notes that the National Academy of Public Administration, in a recent review of Park Police operations and management, has been critical of this practice and has recommended a more flexible approach to the training of new recruits. Therefore, the Committee strongly encourages the Park Police to ensure that newly-hired officers receive basic training in conjunction with law enforcement rangers. Specialized training for Park Police officers, beyond that required for law enforcement rangers, can be provided later.
CONSTRUCTION
The Committee recommends $21,624,000, as requested by the administration, for National Park Service construction and major maintenance to:
(1) repair public facilities damaged by the attacks; and
(2) enhance preparedness for possible terrorist attacks against the Statue of Liberty and other national icons. Of this amount, $16,500,000 is for recovery of Federal Hall, an historic building on Wall Street that suffered significant structural damage from the collapse of the nearby World Trade Center, and $5,124,000 is for increased security equipment at the Statue of Liberty in New York and a small number of other national monuments that were previously identified as National Critical Infrastructure facilities.
In addition, funds will be used for additional security equipment (x-ray machines, magnetometers, security cameras) at selected parks, and allow the National Park Service to expand the security perimeter around the Statue of Liberty, which will expedite the reopening of the Statue of Liberty to visitors.
DEPARTMENTAL OFFICES
The Committee recommends $2,205,000, as requested by the administration, for the Department's Working Capital Fund to enhance preparedness for possible attacks against its Washington, D.C., headquarters--the Main Interior Building and the South Interior Building. The Main Interior Building has been identified as a National Critical Infrastructure facility, and is one of the largest Federal buildings in Washington, housing approximately 2,500 employees. Funds will be used to increase contract guard services and upgrade security equipment, including x-ray machines, magnetometers, and security cameras.
RELATED AGENCIES
SMITHSONIAN INSTITUTION
SALARIES AND EXPENSES
The Committee recommends $21,707,000, as requested by the administration, for the Smithsonian Institution. Of this amount, $96,000 is for clean up at the G.G. Heye Center of the National Museum of the American Indian in New York City, which was affected by the September 11 attacks. The remainder is for increased security at Smithsonian facilities in Washington, D.C.
JOHN F. KENNEDY CENTER FOR THE PERFORMING ARTS
OPERATIONS AND MAINTENANCE
The Committee recommends $4,310,000, as requested by the administration, for the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts' Operations and Maintenance account. These funds will provide for enhancements in security equipment and manpower.
NATIONAL GALLERY OF ART

SALARIES AND EXPENSES
The Committee recommends $758,000, as requested by the administration, for the National Capital Planning Commission (NCPC) for continued efforts related to the Interagency Urban Design and Security Task Force, the Urban Design and Security Plan, and planning and design of physical perimeter security and urban design plans for Federal buildings in the monument core. These funds will be used to hire consultants with expertise in security planning and design to handle the expected increase in workload due to the September 11 terrorist attacks. All exterior improvements/changes to Federal buildings in the National Capital Region must get approval by NCPC before being implemented.
CHAPTER 7
SUBCOMMITTEE ON LABOR, HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES, AND EDUCATION, AND RELATED AGENCIES
DEPARTMENT OF LABOR
EMPLOYMENT AND TRAINING ADMINISTRATION
TRAINING AND EMPLOYMENT SERVICES
The Committee recommendation includes $32,500,000 for training and employment services to be provided through the Consortium for Worker Education, which has been established by the New York City Central Labor Council and the New York City Partnership for an Emergency Employment Clearinghouse. These funds will help serve the tens of thousands of persons who lost their jobs as a result of the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center.
STATE UNEMPLOYMENT INSURANCE AND EMPLOYMENT SERVICE OPERATIONS
The Committee recommendation concurs with the budget request of $4,100,000 for State Unemployment Insurance and Employment Service Operations, to help New York recover from damages incurred as a result of the September 11th attacks. A major component of New York's telephone claims capability for processing unemployment insurance claims was lost, resulting in the need to deploy staff to take claims in person. In addition, New York suffered a total loss of an Unemployment Insurance field office for tax and quality assurance, requiring replacement of space, equipment, and furniture.
WORKERS COMPENSATION PROGRAMS
The Committee recommendation includes $175,000,000 for payment to the New York State Workers Compensation Review Board, for processing of claims related to the terrorists attacks. Of this amount, $125,000,000 is for payment to the New York State Workers Compensation Review Board, for claims processing; 25,000,000 is for payment to the New York State Uninsured Employees Fund, for reimbursement of claims related to the terrorist attacks; and $25,000,000 is for payment to the New York State Uninsured Employers Fund, for reimbursement of claims related to the first response emergency services personnel who were injured, were disabled, or died due to the terrorist attacks.

This includes monitoring the health of workers directly involved in rescue and recovery efforts, as well as baseline and long-term health monitoring of these individuals. CDC should coordinate its efforts with the Federal Emergency Management Agency, the Environmental Protection Agency, the Department of Labor, the State of New York, the City of New York, and affected labor organizations.
NATIONAL INSTITUTES OF HEALTH
NATIONAL INSTITUTE OF ENVIRONMENTAL HEALTH SCIENCES
The Committee recommendation includes $10,500,000 for carrying out research and worker training activities authorized by the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act of 1980. These funds are for World Trade Center response actions, including exposure assessment, epidemiology studies, community outreach and education, training new Hazmat teams for the New York City Fire Department, training environmental remediation workers, health and safety training for site cleanup workers, training and certification in the use of personnel protection equipment in the cleanup effort, and weapons of mass destruction training for the Hazmat workforce.
OFFICE OF THE SECRETARY
PUBLIC HEALTH AND SOCIAL SERVICES EMERGENCY FUND
The Committee recommends $140,000,000 for Grants for Immediate Response. The Department has provided $35,000,000 to help pay for direct healthcare related costs incurred by organizations as a result of the September 11th terrorist attacks. The response to the program exceeded the availably of funds. These additional funds will reimburse organizations such as hospitals, skilled nursing facilities, home health agencies, dialysis facilities, durable medical equipment suppliers and transportation providers which have incurred expenses or experienced revenue losses. Examples of allowable costs include personnel costs, supplies and contractual expenses. Funds will not be available for costs that have otherwise been reimbursed or are eligible for reimbursement from other sources such as from FEMA.
DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION
OFFICE OF ELEMENTARY AND SECONDARY EDUCATION
SCHOOL IMPROVEMENT PROGRAMS
The Committee recommendation concurs with the budget request to enable the Department of Education to provide crisis recovery services in New York and other jurisdictions for students, educators, and their families under the Safe and Drug-Free Schools and Communities National Programs Project SERV (School Emergency Response to Violence). The $10,000,000 recommended would support activities such as counseling and mental health assessments, referrals, and other activities that are essential to restore the teaching and learning environment in schools.
RELATED AGENCIES
SOCIAL SECURITY ADMINISTRATION
LIMITATION ON ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES
The Committee recommendation concurs with the budget request of $7,500,000 to enable the Social Security Administration to cover additional costs incurred as a result of the September 11th terrorist attacks. Funds will be used to pay for infrastructure costs, including space, furniture, and supplies for employees relocated from damaged offices, and to provide increased security levels for key Social Security Administration facilities.
NATIONAL LABOR RELATIONS BOARD
SALARIES AND EXPENSES
The Committee concurs with the budget request of $180,000 for the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) to upgrade locks on external doors in NLRB offices located in facilities not controlled by the General Services Administration.
CHAPTER 8
SUBCOMMITTEE ON THE LEGISLATIVE BRANCH
LEGISLATIVE BRANCH
JOINT ITEMS
LEGISLATIVE BRANCH EMERGENCY RESPONSE FUND
(INCLUDING TRANSFER OF FUNDS)
The Committee recommends $256,081,000 for the legislative branch to ensure the continuance of government; to enhance the safety and security of legislative branch offices, systems and employees; and to meet the needs arising from the recent anthrax-related events. Of this amount, $34,500,000 is to be transferred to the Senate, $40,712,000 to the House, and the remaining $180,869,000 is to be transferred to the Capitol Police Board for transfer to other affected entities of the legislative branch, in such amounts as are approved by the House and Senate Committees on Appropriations. These amounts are intended to cover additional expenses resulting from terrorist attacks on the United States, such as the costs of increased security measures including perimeter security; the development and execution of contingency plans to relocate Members and Congressional staff and other employees of the legislative branch; and to cover the costs of responding to recent anthrax-related events including remediation and new mail handling protocols within the legislative branch.
The Committee expects there will be full audibility, accountability and transparency for all funds allocated from the Emergency Response Fund. Several projects require more thorough review and analysis, such as a new Command Center for the Capitol Police, and the Committee fully expects to be provided detailed spending proposals for such projects and expects such projects to be subject to appropriate protocols for review. Further, the Committee directs the Capitol Police Board to submit quarterly status reports on all projects (other than those for the House, Senate, General Accounting Office and Government Printing Office) including those activities which have been funded from the first $20,000,000,000 provided by Public Law 107-38. Expenditure of all such funds is subject to the reprogramming guidelines specified in the joint statement of the managers accompanying the conference report on the Legislative Branch Appropriations Act for Fiscal Year 2002.
Significant costs have been incurred by the legislative branch to respond to the anthrax-related events at the Capitol complex; approximately $24,000,000 has been included in this bill for Capitol Police, Architect of the Capitol, House, Senate, General Accounting Office and other agencies for anthrax-related costs.
The Committee's recommendation includes $9,000,000 for the Library of Congress for new mail handling protocols and $4,200,000 for addressing backlogged mail and associated requirements at the Library; $5,000,000 for the General Accounting Office for such items as emergency preparedness plans and additional audit and investigative work for biological and chemical warfare; $1,400,000 for the National Guard to provide relief to the Capitol Police; and $4,000,000 for the Government Printing Office to enable limited continuity of GPO operations in support of the Government's printing, printing procurement, and information dissemination functions. These amounts may change as needs continue to evolve.
In view of the critical need to increase the U.S. Capitol Police force, the Committee recommends an FTE level of 1,981.
SENATE
ADMINISTRATIVE PROVISIONS
The Committee has included two administrative provisions for the Senate.
Section 801 authorizes the Senate Sergeant at Arms to acquire buildings and facilities to respond to an emergency situation.
Section 802 authorizes the Senate Sergeant at Arms to enter into a memorandum of understanding with an Executive Agency under which the agency may provide facilities and other services during emergency situations, consistent with Senate procurement regulations.

Section 806 authorizes the U.S. Capitol Preservation Commission to transfer funds from the Capitol Preservation Fund to the Architect of the Capitol for the Capitol Visitor Center.
CHAPTER 9
SUBCOMMITTEE ON MILITARY CONSTRUCTION
MILITARY CONSTRUCTION
MILITARY CONSTRUCTION, DEFENSE-WIDE
The Committee recommends $510,000,000 for Military Construction, Defense-wide, including $475,000,000 for Pentagon reconstruction and $35,000,000 to enhance security and for hardening measures at chemical demilitarization facilities.
MILITARY CONSTRUCTION, ARMY
The Department of the Army has requested $20,700,000 for military construction costs associated with projects in classified locations following the September 11, 2001, terrorist attacks. The Committee recommends funding the full amount of the requests.
MILITARY CONSTRUCTION, NAVY
The Department of the Navy has requested $2,000,000 for military construction costs associated with a classified project following the September 11, 2001, terrorist attacks. The Committee recommends funding the full amount of the request.
MILITARY CONSTRUCTION, AIR FORCE
The Department of the Air Force has requested $47,700,000 for military construction costs associated with projects in classified locations following the September 11, 2001, terrorist attacks. The Committee recommends funding the full amount of the requests.
GENERAL PROVISIONS, THIS CHAPTER
SEC. 901. Authorizes the Secretary of Defense to use funds appropriated in Public Law 107-38 and this Act for military construction projects not otherwise authorized by law if such projects are necessary to respond to acts or threatened acts of terrorism.
SEC. 902. It is the intent of the Committee that the authority provided under Title 10, United States Code, Section 2808 does not apply to Military Construction Appropriations Acts in fiscal year 2002 or prior years.
CHAPTER 10
SUBCOMMITTEE ON TRANSPORTATION AND RELATED AGENCIES
DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION
OFFICE OF THE SECRETARY
SALARIES AND EXPENSES
The Committee recommends $1,500,000 for the Office of Intelligence and Security within the Office of the Secretary of Transportation. The amount provided is the same as the President's request. These funds will be used to better enable the Office of the Secretary to rapidly implement new transportation policies and procedures in response to the attacks of September 11th, as well as develop near- and long-term action plans for mitigating future terrorist threats.
PAYMENTS TO AIR CARRIERS
(AIRPORT AND AIRWAY TRUST FUND)
The Committee recommends an additional amount of $57,000,000 for the Payments To Air Carriers (Essential Air Service) program. As a result of the economic upheavals in the aviation industry following the attacks of September 11th, an increasing number of commercial air carriers have notified the Department of Transportation of their intention to eliminate the sole remaining commercial air service to several communities across the country. In addition, air carriers that provide subsidized service through the Essential Air Service program have, in many instances, demanded increased subsidy rates as their contracts have come up for renewal. These additional funds will bring total program funding to the level of $120,000,000 in fiscal year 2002. This amount should be sufficient to maintain commercial air service to all eligible communities.
COAST GUARD
OPERATING EXPENSES
The Committee recommends an additional amount of $273,350,000 for the operating expenses of the United States Coast Guard. The amount provided is $70,350,000 more than the President's request. Since the attacks of September 11th, the Coast Guard has been required to drastically reorient its operating posture around the requirements of homeland security. As a result, the Coast Guard's level of effort for critical missions including drug interdiction, fisheries enforcement, and migrant interdiction have been dramatically scaled back. In certain areas, even the Coast Guard's responsiveness to potential Search and Rescue (SAR) cases has been sacrificed as floating assets have been moved from SAR stations to internal ports in order to better protect critical national assets from potential terrorist attacks. Some Coast Guard surf stations have been required to attempt SAR cases without the benefit of their only surf-capable vessel.
While the President's request includes $9,690,000 for the establishment of two active duty Maritime Safety and Security Teams, the Committee finds this request to be insufficient. The request would provide for only one team for both the Atlantic and Pacific operating areas, providing little permanent relief to regular operating units so that they can, once again, pursue all of their multi-mission responsibilities. As such, the Committee has provided a total of $29,070,000 and 522 full-time permanent staff years for the establishment of six such teams. This appropriation will allow for one team with area-wide responsibilities on both the East and West coast. In addition, the Committee directs that the four remaining teams be located in those Port areas that present the greatest Port Security challenges, especially those ports with a substantial concentration of critical Department of Defense facilities and a shortage of alternative floating assets. Those units will be responsible solely to the Port Security needs in those ports and should allow the other operating units in those regions to return to their other critical responsibilities.
The Committee has also provided $50,970,000 for the uncompensated pay and benefit costs associated with the pending National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA). For several years, the Coast Guard has been required to absorb within its budget the costs associated with mandatory pay and benefit expenses that have never been acknowledged in the President's budget request. As such, the Coast Guard has continually been required to slow its operating tempo or sacrifice critical maintenance activities as funds have been diverted from unit operating and maintenance budgets to personnel costs. The additional amount provided reflects the estimated funding shortfall that will occur upon enactment of the NDAA. Absent this appropriation, the Coast Guard will be unable to maintain its current homeland defense operating posture.
FEDERAL AVIATION ADMINISTRATION
OPERATIONS
(AIRPORT AND AIRWAY TRUST FUND)
The Committee recommends an additional amount of $300,000,000 for the Operations budget of the Federal Aviation Administration. The amount provided is the same as the President's request. The funds provided will finance upgrades to aircraft cockpit security through cooperative agreements with air carriers. Funding will also be used to offset all or part of the cost to individual airlines to strengthen cockpit doors, add locking devices, improve cabin surveillance, and upgrade aircraft transponders.
FACILITIES AND EQUIPMENT
(AIRPORT AND AIRWAY TRUST FUND)
The Committee recommends an additional amount of $108,500,000 for the Facilities and Equipment budget of the Federal Aviation Administration. The amount provided is the same as the President's request. This funding will permit the accelerated purchase of planned security equipment for airport baggage and passenger screening. These accelerated purchases will serve to improve more rapidly the current quality and level of screening to mitigate terrorist threats to aircraft. Equipment to be purchased includes explosives detection systems, trace detection devices, threat-image projection x-rays, and computer-based training modules.
RESEARCH, ENGINEERING AND DEVELOPMENT
(AIRPORT AND AIRWAY TRUST FUND)
The Committee has provided an additional amount of $12,000,000 for aviation research, engineering, and development. These funds, in combination with $38,000,000 included in division C of this bill, will provide a total of $50,000,000 to this activity. These funds are to be made available solely for proof-of-concept testing of emerging technologies that enhance domestic and international aviation safety and security. Since the attacks of September 11th, the FAA has been pursuing several new technologies but has had little opportunity or financing to deploy these technologies in the field for testing. The funding provided will address this shortfall in order to speed the deployment of the most promising of these technologies. Within the funds provided for FAA, the Committee encourages the FAA to consider the establishment of education and training centers for all aspects of aviation security and safety. These higher education-based centers could be beneficial in developing and implementing training standards for personnel associated with aviation and those personnel who have airport access.
FEDERAL HIGHWAY ADMINISTRATION
MISCELLANEOUS APPROPRIATIONS
The Committee has provided a total of $110,000,000 for miscellaneous appropriations within the Federal Highway Administration. The amount provided is $100,000,000 more than the President's request. Within the amount provided, $10,000,000 shall be for expenses related to traffic controls and detours in New York City and for the repair and reconstruction of non-Federal-aid highways destroyed or damaged by the collapse of the World Trade Center buildings. In addition, $100,000,000 shall be for the critical expansion of interstate ferry service necessitated by the attacks of September 11th. Prior to those attacks, 67,000 daily commuters utilized the PATH transit service between New Jersey and the World Trade Center. The Committee directs that these funds be made available to the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey so that the authority can continue to expand critical ferry services in the New York and New Jersey region.
FEDERAL-AID HIGHWAY
EMERGENCY RELIEF
(HIGHWAY TRUST FUND)
The Committee has provided $75,000,000 for the Emergency Relief program within the Federal Highway Administration, consistent with the President's request. These funds will be derived from the Highway account of the Highway Trust Fund. These funds will be used to fund repairs and reconstruction of Federal-aid highway which were damaged or destroyed by the collapse of the World Trade Center buildings.
FEDERAL RAILROAD ADMINISTRATION
SAFETY AND OPERATIONS
The Committee recommends an additional amount of $6,000,000 for the Safety and Operations account of the Federal Railroad Administration. The amount provided is the same as the Administration's request. These additional funds will provide for overtime expenses and hiring of police and security officers related to the security and inspection of rail infrastructure; additional security personnel, costs associated with increased Safety Inspector travel, and other security measures.
CAPITAL GRANTS TO THE NATIONAL RAILROAD PASSENGER CORPORATION
The Committee has provided an additional $100,000,000 for capital grants to the National Railroad Passenger Corporation (AMTRAK). These funds will be used solely to enhance the safety and security of the aged Amtrak-owned rail tunnels under the East and Hudson Rivers. Amtrak, in combination with the regional commuter rail authorities that utilize these tunnels, have a multi-year plan in place to address these deficiencies. The funds provided should enable these problems to be addressed more rapidly to better protect rail passengers and better ensure the continued continuity of service in the event of another terrorist incident.
FEDERAL TRANSIT ADMINISTRATION
FORMULA GRANTS
The Committee recommends an additional amount of $23,500,000 for the Formula Grants account of the Federal Transit Administration. The amount provided is the same as the Administration's request. These supplemental funds will finance the replacement of buses and transit kiosks that were destroyed by the collapse of the World Trade Center; technical assistance for transit agencies to refine and develop security and emergency response plans; the acceleration and expansion of the PROTECT Program aimed at detecting chemical and biological agents in transit stations; emergency response drills with transit agencies and local first response agencies; and security training for transit operators.
CAPITAL INVESTMENT GRANTS
The Committee recommends an additional amount of $100,000,000 for capital investment grants within the Federal Transit Administration. These funds will be used solely to assist those transit agencies that were most impacted by the terrorist attacks of September 11th. Specifically, the change in commuting patterns forced by the destruction of the World Trade Center and its PATH station has placed extraordinary pressure on other area transit facilities, especially those serving interstate commuters. The funds provided should be used to accelerate transit improvements that are underway in the region as well as initiate transit improvements that are necessary to better accommodate the new commuting patterns in the region.

DEPARTMENT OF HOUSING AND URBAN DEVELOPMENT
COMMUNITY PLANNING AND DEVELOPMENT
COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT FUND
The Committee provides $2,000,000,000 for community development block grants to assist in the recovery efforts related to the attacks of September 11, 2001. The Committee has included bill language waiving certain requirements of the Community Development Block Grant program consistent with waiver authority previously granted in Public Law 107-73.
The Committee is concerned that assistance to individuals and small businesses in lower Manhattan needs to be obligated as quickly as possible. Toward that end, the Committee recommends that no less than $500,000,000 shall be available for grants to individuals, nonprofits and small businesses in lower Manhattan that suffered losses due to the September 11 attacks. The Committee directs that the grants be awarded through a corporation to be established no later than 45 days from enactment.
The corporation would provide grants of up to $500,000 unless a higher amount is deemed necessary by the corporation, to individuals, nonprofits or small businesses located south of Canal Street who may have suffered a disruption of power, disruption of telecommunication capacity, damage to physical infrastructure or disruption in access to a facility. The provision would require that a mechanism be created and begin accepting grant applications no later than 45 days after enactment of this bill and, to the extent practicable, applications be processed and grants awarded no later than 45 days after an application is filed. In cases where there is unavoidable delay, advance or partial payments may be appropriate.
Under this provision, grants could be made for specified damages including an insured or underinsured property loss; damage to, or destruction of tangible assets and inventory; business interruption loss; overhead costs; employee wages for work not performed; an insurance deductible; temporary relocation expenses; debris removal and other clean-up costs. The burden of demonstrating the injury suffered by the claimant shall be on the claimant. If documentary evidence is not reasonably available, the Corporation may pay a claim based on an affidavit or other documentation executed by the claimant. In calculating business interruption losses, the Committee recommends the Corporation use as a guide the manual prepared by Price Waterhouse Coopers for the Cerro Grande fire claims.
Any payments made under this program would be reduced by paid or projected insurance policy payments, as well as benefits under the public assistance program, individual assistance program, or other Federal program.
No later than one year following creation of the mechanism to review and process claims, the Corporation shall submit to Congress a report that describes the claims submitted under this program, including, with respect to each claim: the amount claimed; a brief description of the nature of the claim, and; the status or disposition of the claim, including the amount of any payment on the claim.
The HUD Inspector General shall submit a semi-annual report to the Committees on Appropriations regarding all activities of, and payments made by, the Corporation.

CHAPTER 2
SUBCOMMITTEE ON COMMERCE, JUSTICE, AND STATE, THE JUDICIARY, AND RELATED AGENCIES
Cybersecurity Initiative- The Committee is aware that terrorist organizations are exploiting the Internet to plan, coordinate, and initiate acts of violence and destruction, bankroll terrorist activities, recruit terrorists and fellow travelers, and court the media and public throughout the world. To combat these activities, the Committee recommends $150,000,000, shared by the Departments of Justice and Commerce, to fund a cybersecurity initiative that will complement and enhance existing cybercrime and cyberterrorist activities. The details of this initiative are described under General Legal Activities, the Federal Bureau of Investigation, the Office of Justice Programs, the National Institute of Standards and Technology, and the Federal Trade Commission accounts. The Committee urges the Administration to coordinate these activities with the Department of Defense Biometrics Management Office, to avoid duplication of effort. The software/information technology industry is a great national asset and is critical to our nation's security. The Committee takes particular note of the devastating effects that the tragic events of September 11, 2001 had upon the software/information technology industry in and around New York City. The Committee notes that 85 percent of these software/information technology companies employ less than 100 persons. The survival of these businesses is vital to the recovery efforts of New York City and to the national interest; accordingly, the Committee encourages all agencies, in their administration of the programs in this bill for which funding is provided herein, to take all appropriate action to encourage applicants to work with these companies.
DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE
GENERAL ADMINISTRATION
PATRIOT ACT ACTIVITIES
The Committee recommends $75,000,000 for Patriot Act Activities. Section 405 of the Patriot Act requires the Attorney General, in consultation with the Secretary of State, Secretary of the Treasury, and the Secretary of Transportation, to report to Congress on the feasibility of enhancing the Federal Bureau of Investigation and other identification systems, including Immigration and Naturalization Service's Automated Biometric Identification System [`IDENT'], INS's Enforcement Case Tracking System ['Enforce'], and the Joint Automated Booking System, to better identify a person who holds a foreign passport or a visa and may be wanted in connection with a criminal investigation in the United States or abroad, before the issuance of a visa to that person or the entry or exit from the United States by that person. The Committee's recommendation fully funds enhancements deemed to be necessary.
LEGAL ACTIVITIES
SALARIES AND EXPENSES, GENERAL LEGAL ACTIVITIES
The Committee recommends an additional $15,000,000 for General Legal Activities. The recommendation is $15,000,000 above the supplemental request.

The Committee therefore recommends $25,000,000 for Trilogy, the FBI's computer modernization program. These funds will provide the rest of the funding for this 3-year program and allow the FBI to expedite its deployment.
Counterterrorism Equipment and Supplies.--The Committee recommends $25,000,000 for equipment and supplies for counterterrorism efforts.
Cybersecurity Initiative.--The Committee recommends a total of $50,000,000 for the National Infrastructure Protection Center (NIPC). These funds include $29,289,000 for NIPC headquarters and field offices to enhance personnel, contractor services, equipment, and analytical support. The Committee recommends an additional $20,711,000 to enhance the ability of NIPC's Special Technologies and Applications Unit to respond to and investigate cyber-terrorism incidents.
IMMIGRATION AND NATURALIZATION SERVICE
SALARIES AND EXPENSES
The Committee recommends $35,100,000 for salaries and expenses for the Immigration and Naturalization Service (INS). This recommendation is $35,100,000 above the request.
This funding will cover expenses for continuing current operations by the INS in response to the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks and will provide funding to address serious deficiencies in INS' capacity to screen incoming immigrants and identify immigrants that may pose a threat to the country and enhance INS' intelligence and information technology capability.
Northern Border Inspection Operations.--The Committee recommends $13,625,000 for dedicated commuter lanes at northern ports of entry.

In the past, the Committee has been concerned by the lack, or condition, of facilities INS-wide. The backlog of projects has reached unacceptable levels, which will surely grow larger as a result of increasing staff levels. These funds shall be used to begin the long process of eliminating construction and maintenance backlogs, and supporting and sustaining increased INS personnel and operational and information technology enhancements on the northern border.
FEDERAL PRISON SYSTEM
SALARIES AND EXPENSES
The Committee recommends an additional $20,000,000 for Salaries and Expenses. The recommendation is $20,000,000 above the supplemental request. These funds will provide the necessary resources to respond to the terrorist attacks on September 11, 2001.

CHAPTER 3
SUBCOMMITTEE ON ENERGY AND WATER DEVELOPMENT
DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY
ATOMIC ENERGY DEFENSE ACTIVITIES
NATIONAL NUCLEAR SECURITY ADMINISTRATION
WEAPONS ACTIVITIES
The Committee recommendation provides $179,000,000 for Weapons Activities.
The recommendation includes funding for additional on-site security measures (including cyber security) and plant reconfiguration at defense-related national laboratories and production plants and for additional transportation safeguards and security to protect and prevent sabotage of stockpile components and material while in transit. The Committee expects that a minimum of $50,000,000 of the funds provided will be dedicated to transportation safeguards.
The Committee strongly urges the NNSA to use a portion of the resources provided to developing its extensive capabilities in security and counter-terrorism technologies and making them available to other government agencies as appropriate.
DEFENSE NUCLEAR NONPROLIFERATION
The Committee recommendation provides $286,000,000, $286,000,000 above the administration's request, for Defense Nuclear Nonproliferation.
The recommended funds are provided to reduce the serious global danger of weapons of mass destruction. The Committee is alarmed that the administration has chosen not to request any supplemental funds for nonproliferation activities in light of the events of September 11, 2001. In this time of uncertainty, the Committee strongly urges the administration to better address the unique science and technology competencies needed for the increasing demands of counter-terrorism, nonproliferation, domestic nuclear safeguards and security, and emergency management.
Nonproliferation and verification research and development- The Committee recommendation includes $85,000,000 for nonproliferation and verification research and development.
The recommended funds are provided to continue the important remote sensing and verification technology research, development, and deployment, and to continue to invest in the development of essential technologies for responding to the growing threat of chemical and biological terrorism.
International materials protection, control, and accounting- The Committee recommendation includes $150,000,000 for international materials protrection, control, and accounting.
The recommended funds are provided to improve physical security of weapons-grade nuclear material in former Soviet states, to improve Russian and Former Soviet state border and export controls, and to allow for additional material consolidation and control work that is critical to United States nonproliferation efforts.
Russian Transition Initiatives- The Committee recommendation includes $20,000,000 for Russian transitition initiatives.
The recommended funds are provided to expand the critical Initiatives for Proliferation Prevention program and the Nuclear Cities Initiative.
International Nuclear Safety- The Committee recommendation includes $31,000,000 for international nuclear safety.

INDEPENDENT AGENCY
NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION
SALARIES AND EXPENSES
The Committee recommends $36,000,000, $36,000,000 above the administration's request, for salaries and expenses at the Nuclear Regulatory Commission.
The recommended funds are provided to prevent and mitigate the potential impact of terrorist attacks on commercial nuclear reactors, and to provide enhanced security for the transportation, storage, and use of commercial nuclear materials. Given the nature of the attacks on September 11, the Commission has initiated a top-to-bottom analysis of all aspects of the agency's safeguards and security program. These additional resources will be used to focus on re-analyzing the vulnerabilities and physical protection requirements for NRC-licensed facilities and for radioactive materials in transit; re-analyzing the design basis threats which are used to design safeguards systems to protect against acts of radiological sabotage and to prevent the theft of spent nuclear material; reanalyzing the processes used to authorize access to NRC-licensed facilities; strengthening NRC's emergency preparedness planning; and strengthening NRC's infrastructure and communications capabilities. The Committee directs the Commission to utilize the resources of the National Infrastructure Simulation and Analysis Center in these efforts.
The Committee intends that the funds appropriated shall be excluded from license fee revenues.
CHAPTER 4
SUBCOMMITTEE ON LABOR, HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES, AND EDUCATION, AND RELATED AGENCIES
DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES
OFFICE OF THE SECRETARY
PUBLIC HEALTH AND SOCIAL SERVICES EMERGENCY FUND
The Committee recommends $3,325,000,000 for emergency expenses to support activities related to countering potential biological, disease and chemical threats to civilian populations. This is $1,730,000,000 above the request.
The Committee recommends $1,150,000,000 for CDC to upgrade State and local capacity, which is $1,085,000,000 above the request. The Committee has held numerous hearings on the public health response to bioterrorism preparedness and other public health threats and recognizes that bioterrorism preparedness depends on core public health capacities at all levels--Federal, State and local. It has become increasingly clear that our Nation cannot mount a successful response to bioterrorism or other public health threats without substantially improving the core capacities of local public health agencies. Therefore, the Committee believes that a portion of this funding should be used for broad-based building of State and local core public health capacities as well as for the specialized planning and response activities unique to bioterrorism preparedness. The Committee also believes that CDC should use a portion of these funds under the authority of the Public Health Threats and Emergencies Act of 2000.
Within the total, $165,000,000 is for grants to hospitals to improve their capacity to respond to bioterrorism. This is $115,000,000 more than the request. The Committee notes a bioterrorist attack involving large casualties will likely overwhelm the capacity of hospitals and emergency departments. The funding provided would assist health care providers in developing response plans, improving surge capacity, providing training, developing communications systems and meeting other priorities for responding to a bioterrrorist attack.
The Committee recommends $185,000,000 for upgrading capacity at CDC, which is $135,000,000 above the request. Included in this amount is $35,000,000 for anthrax research activities; $51,000,000 for biological laboratory capacity; $20,000,000 for epidemic intelligence service/disaster response teams; and $24,000,000 for rapid toxic screening. The Committee notes that the resources of CDC have been strained by the recent anthrax attacks and has therefore included $30,000,000 for costs related to immediate emergencies and continuing operations.
The Committee also recommends $221,000,000 to the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases. Of this amount, $125,000,000 is for bioterrorism-related research and development, including research on vaccines, antibiotics and anti-virals. The request did not include funding for this activity. The Committee believes that a key part of our Nation's preparedness must include the development of newer and safer vaccines against biological threats. Of the total provided for NIAID, $96,000,000 is for the construction of biosafety laboratories and related infrastructure costs. The request did not include funding for this activity.
The Committee recommends $593,000,000 for the National Pharmaceutical Stockpile, which is less than the request due to the savings achieved in the purchase of antibiotics to treat persons exposed to anthrax. The Committee also recommends $829,000,000 for the purchase, deployment and related costs of the smallpox vaccine. This amount includes $428,000,000 to purchase 155 million doses of the smallpox vaccine, as well as $79,000,000 for the contract to purchase 54 million doses awarded earlier this year. The Committee has also included $322,000,000 for related costs, such as vaccine storage, purchase of vaccinia immune globulin, training and deployment.
The Committee recommends $95,000,000 for the Office of the Secretary and for improving disaster response teams. The Committee also recommends $4,000,000 for workplace safety training grants and $10,000,000 for the establishment and operation of a national system to track biological pathogens. The Committee recommends $73,000,000 to enhance security at laboratory facilities at CDC and NIH, including information technology security.
CHAPTER 5
SUBCOMMITTEE ON TRANSPORTATION AND RELATED AGENCIES
DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION
COAST GUARD
OPERATING EXPENSES
The Committee recommends an additional amount of $12,000,000 for Coast Guard Operating Expenses. These funds will be used solely for the costs associated with the new Coast Guard port security responsibilities included in the Port and Maritime Security Act of 2001. These responsibilities include the establishment of local port security task forces to facilitate law enforcement efforts and coordinate port security plans and the updating and exercising of counter-terrorism contingency plans.
FEDERAL AVIATION ADMINISTRATION
GRANTS-IN-AID FOR AIRPORTS
(AIRPORT AND AIRWAY TRUST FUND)
The Committee recommends an additional amount of $200,000,000 to be used solely to compensate airports for a portion of the direct costs associated with their heightened security posture. Since the attacks of September 11th, the Federal Aviation Administration has issued several new directives that have required immediate unbudgeted expenditures on the part of the nation's airports. These directives have required, among other things, dramatically increased expenditures for law enforcement, airport surveillance, and the revalidation of all airport-issued and airport-approved identification media. These additional costs come at a time when the fall-off in air travel has served to dramatically reduce airport revenues. As such, the Committee expects the Administrator to distribute these scarce but urgently needed funds in a manner to assist those airports that are facing the greatest financial challenges in complying with recent FAA directives.
RESEARCH, ENGINEERING AND DEVELOPMENT
(AIRPORT AND AIRWAY TRUST FUND)
The Committee has provided an additional amount of $38,000,000 for aviation research, engineering, and development. These funds, in combination with $12,000,000 provided in division B of this bill, will provide a total of $50,000,000 to this activity. These funds are to be made available solely for proof-of-concept testing of emerging technologies that enhance domestic and international aviation safety and security. Since the attacks of September 11th, the FAA has been pursuing several new technologies but has had little opportunity or financing to deploy these technologies in the field for testing. The funding provided will address this shortfall in order to speed the deployment of the most promising of these technologies.
CHAPTER 6
SUBCOMMITTEE ON TREASURY AND GENERAL GOVERNMENT

The majority of new personnel shall be placed at our long-neglected ports-of-entry along the Northern border, but $10,000,000 shall be used to hire Customs inspectors for the Southwest border. Funds are also provided to enhance seaport security, procure and deploy non-instrusive and counterterrorism inspection technology at our Nation's borders and ports-of-entry, and to upgrade critical land border equipment and infrastructure.
EXECUTIVE OFFICE OF THE PRESIDENT
OFFICE OF ADMINISTRATION
The Committee recommends $20,847,000 for the Executive Office of the President to meet additional requirements in response to the September 11 terrorist attacks and to ensure the continuity of support and services to the President and Vice President of the United States.
POSTAL SERVICE
PAYMENT TO THE POSTAL SERVICE FUND
The Committee recommends a payment of $875,000,000 to the Postal Service Fund to enable the Postal Service to build and establish a system for sanitizing and screening mail matter, to protect postal employees and postal customers from exposure to biohazardous material, and to replace or repair Postal Service facilities destroyed or damaged in New York City as a result of the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks.

DIVISION D--SPENDING LIMITS AND BUDGETARY ALLOCATIONS FOR FISCAL YEAR 2002
- The Committee recommends a provision increasing the discretionary spending limits from those set by the Balanced Budget Act of 1997 to $681,441,000,000 in budget authority. This level, adjusted for emergencies of $2,200,000,000, for the separate conservation category of $1,760,000,000 and for technical adjustments under section 314 of the Budget Act of $599,000,000, is consistent with the Bipartisan Agreement topline of $686,000,000,000 reached with the President in October. In addition, the language provides authority for the Budget Committees of the House and the Senate to set aggregate budget levels and 302(a) allocations consistent with the new caps. Also, the language permits Congress to use Congressional Budget Office scoring of budget authority in measuring compliance with the Bipartisan Agreement, while avoiding an inadvertent sequester because of scoring differences with the Office of Management and Budget.
The Committee also recommends a provision that sets the pay-as-you-go balances for fiscal years 2001 to 2002 to zero in the final sequestration report for fiscal year 2002 required by section 254(f)(3) of the Balanced Budget and Emergency Deficit Control Act of 1985.

The Committee has included several technical corrections to recently-enacted fiscal year 2002 appropriations acts. These correct errors or omissions that were made in the following bills: Agriculture, Rural Development, and Related Agencies; Commerce, Justice, State and the Judiciary; Energy and Water Development; Legislative Branch; Transportation and Related Agencies; Treasury and General Government; and Veterans Affairs and Housing and Urban Development.
The Committee notes that with exception of the amount of subsidy authorized to be given by each employing office, Section 112 of Public Law 107-68, the Legislative Branch Appropriations Act, did not affect existing rules and regulations which apply to the transportation subsidy for employees of the Senate.
The Committee has included technical corrections to the Transportation Appropriations Act which is awaiting the President's signature. Because this bill is not yet a Public Law, these technical corrections (sections 109 through 112) are structured as free-standing legislation rather than amendments to the public law.
Section 109(a) implements the intent of the conferees by requiring that $29,542,304 be drawn down from the Revenue Aligned Budget Authority program for the Woodrow Wilson Bridge project. This amount is consistent with the amount required to be drawn down for this project under the Transportation Equity Act for the 21st Century. Section 109(b) implements the intent of the conferees regarding the entities eligible to receive funds for environmental streamlining activities. This provision was inadvertently left out of the Transportation Conference Report. Section 109(c) implements the intent of the conferees by stipulating that $5,896,000 shall be made available for improving the commercial drivers license programs in the States. A mistaken figure was identified in the conference report accompanying the Transportation bill. Section 110 implements the intent of the conferees regarding that portion of the Pipeline Safety Program that shall be drawn down from the Pipeline Safety Fund. All of the funding figures contained in Section 109 and 110 are consistent with the funding levels identified in the Statement of Managers accompanying the conference report on the Transportation Bill as well as the Comparative Statement of New Budget Authority printed at the end of that Statement of Managers.
Section 111 implements the intent of the conferees by including a project description change for the Ship Creek Access project in Anchorage, Alaska. This provision was inadvertently left out of the series of project description changes included in the Transportation Conference Report. Section 112 implements the intent of the conferees regarding one project within the Transportation and Community and System Preservation Program and one project within the Interstate Maintenance program. The funding figures for each of those projects were misidentified in the statement of managers accompanying the Transportation Conference Report.
DEPARTMENT OF HOUSING AND URBAN DEVELOPMENT
PUBLIC AND INDIAN HOUSING
HOUSING CERTIFICATE FUND
The Committee has included a general provision (sec. 114) that provides up to $20,000,000 from previously appropriated funds in Public Law 107-73 to address violations of the Anti-Deficiency Act (ADA) by the Office of Multifamily Housing Assistance Restructuring (OMHAR) in the provision of technical assistance under section 514 of the Multifamily Assisted Housing Reform and Affordability Act of 1997 (MAHRA). At least 3 violations of the ADA were committed by OMHAR between 1999 and 2001 when it committed more funds for technical assistance than were appropriated. These are serious violations and the Committee is concerned that HUD has not taken adequate steps in investigating and responding to these illegal actions. In addition, these violations have had an adverse impact on a number of low-income entities that rely on these technical assistance funds to complete complex mark-to-market restructuring deals. This provision will allow HUD to continue the technical assistance funding for these groups and balance the HUD's accounts. Nevertheless, the Committee expects a full report on all issues regarding how these violations of the ADA occurred as well as what safeguards have been put in place to ensure no additional violations can occur. The Committee also expects the Department to take the strongest possible actions, including the possible imposition of criminal charges, against the responsible individuals.
To ensure that HUD is taking the proper notice of the Committee's concerns about the seriousness of these ADA violations and the need for prompt action, at least $2,000,000 of the funding is to come from the salaries of the Office of the General Counsel and OMHAR, the primary offices with responsibility for compliance with the technical assistance requirements of section 514. In addition, a number of concerns have been raised about whether this technical assistance has been used appropriately. As a result, the HUD IG is directed to audit all technical assistance awards under section 514 with the requirement that HUD recapture any funds that have been used illegally and bar any entity that has used any of these funds illegally from all HUD assistance for 4 years.
