Clerk's Note
This committee print provides a compilation of the enacted
text and applicable explanatory material for the Omnibus
Appropriations Act, 2009 (H.R. 1105; P.L. 111-8).
This Act, which consists of the nine regular annual
appropriations bills for fiscal year 2009 that were outstanding
from the prior congress, as well as further provisions related
to Homeland Security and other matters, is the product of
negotiations between the House and Senate Appropriations
Committees that took place before its introduction. The
compromise measure was introduced as an original bill by
Chairman Obey on February 23, 2009 and was passed by the House
without amendment two days later.\1\ The Senate began
consideration on March 2, and passed the bill without amendment
by voice vote on March 10.\2\ The President signed the
legislation on March 11, 2009 and it became Public Law 111-8.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\1\ Vote on passage: 245 yeas-178 nays (Roll No. 86), February 25,
2009.
\2\ Senate vote to invoke cloture on the bill: 62 yeas-35 nays
(Record vote no. 96).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Because the measure was pre-negotiated and the final
product introduced as an original bill, there is no conference
report and no ``joint explanatory statement of the managers''
for H.R. 1105. Instead, as directed by the House of
Representatives,\3\ Chairman Obey submitted an Explanatory
Statement in the Congressional Record of February 23, 2009.\4\
Section 4 of the Act provides that this Explanatory Statement
``shall have the same effect with respect to the allocation of
funds and implementation of this Act as if it were a joint
explanatory statement of a committee of conference.'' The text
of the Explanatory Statement is reproduced in full in this
committee print.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\3\ H. Res. 92, section 2 (as amended by section 2 of H. Res. 108).
\4\ The Statement appears on pages H1653-H2599 in the February 23
Congressional Record.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
For the convenience of users, this print is organized
according to the ten divisions of the Act, with the legislative
text of each division paired with the applicable portion of the
Explanatory Statement.

by Mr. Obey, Chairman of the House Committee on Appropriations,
Regarding H.R. 1105, Omnibus Appropriations Act, 2009'' \2\]
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\2\ This Explanatory Statement was submitted for printing in the
Congressional Record on February 23, 2009, prior to House consideration
of the bill and as directed by the House of Representatives in section
2 of H. Res. 92 (as amended by section 2 of H. Res. 108). The Statement

DIVISION F--LABOR, HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES, AND EDUCATION, AND
RELATED AGENCIES APPROPRIATIONS, 2009
Following is an explanation of the effects of this division
(hereafter referred to as the ``bill''). Funds for the
individual programs and activities within the accounts in this
Act are displayed in the detailed table at the end of the
explanatory statement for this Act. Funding levels that are not
displayed in the detailed table are identified in this
explanatory statement.
Section 516 sets forth the reprogramming requirements and
limitations for the Departments and agencies funded through
this Act, including the requirement to make a written request
to the Committees on Appropriations of the House of
Representatives and the Senate 15 days prior to reprogramming,
or to the announcement of intent to reprogram, funds in excess
of 10 percent, or $500,000, whichever is less, between
programs, projects and activities.
Departments and agencies funded in this bill shall submit
statements on the effect of this Act to the Appropriations
Committees within 45 days of enactment of this Act, pursuant to
section 518. The Committees on Appropriations of the House of
Representatives and the Senate expect that these statements
will provide sufficient detail to show the allocation of funds
among programs, projects and activities, particularly in
accounts where the final appropriation is different than that
of the budget request. Further, these statements shall also
include the effect of the appropriation on any new activities
or major initiatives discussed in the budget justifications
accompanying the fiscal year 2009 budget.
TITLE I--DEPARTMENT OF LABOR
Employment And Training Administration
TRAINING AND EMPLOYMENT SERVICES
The bill includes $3,626,448,000 for Training and
Employment Services, which is $50,180,000 above the fiscal year
2008 funding level and $565,525,000 above the budget request.
The bill continues the funding for Community-Based Job
Training grants within the Dislocated Worker Assistance
National Reserve. Within the funds provided for the Community-
Based Job Training Initiative (CBJTI), the Department of Labor
(DOL) should provide priority consideration to worker training
programs for the energy efficiency and renewable energy
industries specified in the Green Jobs Act of 2007. A similar
priority should be established in awarding competitive grants
for high growth industries. Consultation with the Committees on
Appropriations of the House of Representatives and the Senate
prior to the issuance of CBJTI and high growth industry
solicitations of grant applications is requested.
The amount provided for YouthBuild will allow for the
selection of additional YouthBuild grantees. The Department is
encouraged to incorporate a priority for use of green building
techniques in its competitive selection of additional
YouthBuild programs. The Department also should explore ways to
expand assistance to YouthBuild programs to enhance their
ability to teach green building techniques, to prepare youth
for employment in green construction while increasing the
energy efficiency of local housing. The Department should
provide recommendations to the Committees on Appropriations of
the House of Representatives and the Senate on how this type of
assistance could be expanded beyond the current DOL grantees.
The bill includes new language that will allow YouthBuild
grantees to use grant awards for program year 2009, as well as
remaining funds available in program year 2008, to serve
individuals who have dropped out of high school and reenrolled
in an alternative school, if that reenrollment is part of a
sequential service strategy. This is the same integrated
approach used when the program was administered by the
Department of Housing and Urban Development.
Within the amount provided for Pilots, Demonstrations and
Research, the bill designates $5,000,000 for the continuation
of the program of competitive grants to address the employment
and training needs of young parents.
Within the amount provided for Pilots, Demonstrations and
Research, the bill includes $41,324,000 for the following
projects in the following amounts:
[GRAPHIC(S) NOT AVAILABLE IN TIFF FORMAT]
Within the funds provided for Re-integration of Ex-
Offenders, the bill designates $88,500,000 for youthful
offender activities. Within the amount provided for youthful
offender activities, $42,900,000 is available to continue a
school mentoring initiative that began in program year 2006.
These funds are intended to be used to implement mentoring
strategies that integrate educational and employment
interventions and prevent youth violence. Within this amount,
$7,900,000 shall be used to continue those mentoring grants
made with program year 2008 funds, along with the technical
assistance that supports these grantees. This amount represents
a down payment for continuation costs of those grants made with
2008 funds. The balance of continuation costs associated with
those 2008 grants will be provided in fiscal year 2010. Bill
language requires $35,000,000 under the school mentoring
initiative to be used for additional grants, and associated
technical assistance, to implement mentoring strategies in
schools identified as persistently dangerous.
Also within the amount provided for youthful offender
activities, $45,600,000 is available for other activities to
support the employment needs of youthful offenders so as to
prevent them from re-entering the criminal justice system. Of
this amount, $20,000,000 is included for a program of new
competitive awards for activities that prepare young ex-
offenders and school dropouts for employment. This competition
should address the needs of minority communities, and shall
include opportunities for national and regional intermediaries
with demonstrated capacity to serve young offenders to apply.
Funds not used for this new competition are available for
continuation funding for existing grantees.
COMMUNITY SERVICE EMPLOYMENT FOR OLDER AMERICANS
The bill includes $571,925,000 for Community Service
Employment for Older Americans, which is $50,250,000 above the
fiscal year 2008 funding level and $221,925,000 above the
budget request. New bill language will allow for these funds to
be recaptured and reobligated in accordance with section 517(c)
of the Older Americans Act.
FEDERAL UNEMPLOYMENT BENEFITS AND ALLOWANCES
The bill includes $958,800,000 for Federal Unemployment
Benefits and Allowances, which is $70,100,000 above the fiscal
year 2008 funding level and the same as the budget request.
STATE UNEMPLOYMENT INSURANCE AND EMPLOYMENT SERVICE OPERATIONS
The bill includes $3,694,865,000 for State Unemployment
Insurance and Employment Service Operations, which is
$277,545,000 above the fiscal year 2008 level and $911,951,000
above the budget request.
Within the amount provided for grants to the States for the
administration of Unemployment Insurance (UI), the bill
includes a new provision, recommended in the budget request,
requiring that $10,000,000 in base UI funds be used for in-
person reemployment and eligibility assessments and UI improper
payment reviews. An additional $40,000,000 is provided for this
purpose. It is expected that a portion of the funds provided
will be used for technology-based overpayment prevention,
detection, and collection infrastructure investments in support
of these activities. The bill also contains new language
allowing the Secretary of Labor, at the request of a State
participating in a consortium, to reallot funds under Title III
of the Social Security Act to other consortium members to carry
out activities that benefit the unemployment compensation law
of the requesting State.
Within the total for Employment Service National
Activities, $18,520,000 is provided for the administration of
the Work Opportunity Tax Credit. Funds for Foreign Labor
Certification activities are now consolidated and separately
identified in this account. Previously, funds were provided in
this account and in the Employment and Training Administration
Program Administration account. Due to concern about the
Department's new requirement for State Workforce Agencies to
assume the responsibility for employment verification in the H-
2A agricultural workers program, the Secretary is directed to
provide a report to the Committees on Appropriations of the
House of Representatives and the Senate within 90 days of the
enactment of this Act on the costs to States and legal basis
for imposing this responsibility on a mandatory basis.
Within the amount provided for One-Stop Career Center and
Labor Market Information, the Department is directed to fund
workforce information grants to States at not less than
$32,000,000. Also within the total, not less than $2,500,000 is
provided for competitive grants to State agencies to identify
job openings and skill requirements for the energy efficiency
and renewable energy industries and to refer workers to job
openings and training programs as outlined in 171(e)(2)(C) of
the Workforce Investment Act.
The increase in funding for Work Incentive Grants is
intended to allow for the integration of disability navigators
into the one-stop system in all participating States and the
evaluation of the progress to date in reaching this goal.
ADVANCES TO THE UNEMPLOYMENT TRUST FUND AND OTHER FUNDS
The bill includes $422,000,000 for Advances to the
Unemployment Trust Fund and Other Funds, which is $15,000,000
below the fiscal year 2008 funding level and the same as the
budget request. The funds may be used to implement the
expansion of the Trade Adjustment Assistance program contained
in the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act, including the
provision of additional training, employment, and case
management services funds to the States.
PROGRAM ADMINISTRATION
The bill includes $130,463,000 for Program Administration,
which is $373,000 below the fiscal year 2008 level, after
adjusting the funding to account for moving Foreign Labor
Certification activities to another account, and $13,548,000
below the budget request.
Employee Benefits Security Administration
SALARIES AND EXPENSES
The bill includes $143,419,000 for the Employee Benefits
Security Administration, which is $4,106,000 above the fiscal
year 2008 funding level and $4,452,000 below the budget
request.
Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation
PENSION BENEFIT GUARANTY CORPORATION FUND
The bill includes $444,722,000 for the Pension Benefit
Guaranty Corporation (Corporation), which is $18,075,000 above
the fiscal year 2008 funding level and the same as the budget
request. The bill modifies language that permits workload
driven increases in assets received by the Corporation and
includes new language providing the Corporation the ability to
access funds to meet unforeseen expenses in order to protect
plan assets.
Employment Standards Administration
SALARIES AND EXPENSES
(INCLUDING RESCISSION)
The bill includes $440,267,000 for the Employment Standards
Administration, which is $19,342,000 above the fiscal year 2008
level and $28,393,000 below the budget request.
Within the amount provided for the Enforcement of Wage and
Hour Standards, $1,000,000 is provided for accelerating start-
up of a system to resolve claims of victims for injury caused
by asbestos exposure. Activities to shorten the lead-time for
implementation may include planning for the promulgation of
regulations and establishing procedures for the processing of
claims, including the expediting of exigent health claims. The
Wage and Hour Division may use contracts with individuals or
entities with the relevant experience to jump start the
process. Funds not needed for this purpose, if authorizing
legislation is not enacted, should be used for additional
investigations as outlined in the budget request.
The bill includes a rescission of $97,000,000 in
unobligated funds collected pursuant to section 286(v) of the
Immigration and Nationality Act. Sufficient funds will remain
to ensure that the Department of Labor will be able to continue
its enforcement activities under the current legislative
authority.
SPECIAL BENEFITS
(INCLUDING TRANSFER OF FUNDS)
The bill includes $163,000,000 for Special Benefits, which
is $40,000,000 below the fiscal year 2008 funding level and the
same as the budget request.
SPECIAL BENEFITS FOR DISABLED COAL MINERS
The bill includes $188,130,000 for Special Benefits for
Disabled Coal Miners, as requested. This amount is in addition
to the $62,000,000 appropriated last year as an advance for the
first quarter of fiscal year 2009. The total program level of
$250,130,000 is $26,091,000 below the program level for fiscal
year 2008 and the same as the budget request. In addition, the
bill provides an advance appropriation of $56,000,000 for the
first quarter of fiscal year 2010, which is the same as the
budget request.
ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES, ENERGY EMPLOYEES
OCCUPATIONAL ILLNESS COMPENSATION FUND
The bill includes $49,654,000, to remain available until
expended, for the Energy Employees Occupational Illness
Compensation Fund. This amount is $267,000 above the comparable
fiscal year 2008 funding level and the same as the budget
request. The bill conforms with the budget request to provide
an additional $55,358,000 for the activities performed under
this program by the National Institute for Occupational Safety
and Health directly to the Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention.
BLACK LUNG DISABILITY TRUST FUND
(INCLUDING TRANSFER OF FUNDS)
The bill includes such sums as necessary for payment of

bill provides for transfers from the trust fund for
administrative expenses for Department of Labor agencies and
for the Department of the Treasury.

and Health Administration (OSHA), which is $27,041,000 above
the fiscal year 2008 funding level and $11,368,000 above the
budget request.
The Department should use the increase above the fiscal
year 2008 funding level to begin rebuilding OSHA's enforcement
capacity and to increase the pace of standard setting. An
important component of this mission is to enhance enforcement
and oversight of injury and illness recordkeeping to ensure
complete and accurate recording and reporting by employers.
OSHA should use $1,000,000 of the funds provided above the
request for a recordkeeping enforcement initiative on injury
and illness reporting, addressing the apparent lack of
completeness of the OSHA Log of Work-related Injuries and
Illnesses. The Department shall provide a letter report on
OSHA's current and planned activities in this area to the
Committees on Appropriations of the House of Representatives
and the Senate not later than 90 days after enactment of this
Act.
The increase above the request for State Programs is
intended to support the efforts of the Illinois Department of
Labor to become a State-plan State for public worksites.
The bill provides $10,000,000 for Susan Harwood Training
grants, and designates $3,144,000 within this amount for the

levels in the active workings of coal mines. MSHA shall report
to the Committees on Appropriations of the House of

ILAB shall use $39,260,000 for the United States'
contribution to expand on the successful efforts of the
International Labor Organization's (ILO) International Program

the worst forms of child labor.
The bill also provides $20,000,000 to continue the program
of basic education grants in countries where the growing number
of children removed from abusive and exploitative child labor
need access to basic education. The Department shall continue
to work with the governments of host counties to eliminate
school fees that create a barrier to education.
The bill also provides $6,500,000 to continue support for
the implementation of model programs designed to address worker
rights in countries with which the United States has trade
preference programs. Within this amount, $2,500,000 is included
to expand the existing cooperative agreement for the
development of an effective system of monitoring and
transparent public reporting on the adherence to, and
enforcement of, worker rights in the Republic of Haiti. These
additional funds will allow the implementation of an effective
monitoring program in factories, including the training of
labor inspectors, and reflect the support for a multi-year
funding commitment to improve the working conditions in Haiti's
garment industry and increase compliance with core
international labor standards. Cost sharing from Haiti shall
continue to support this effort.
Within the funds provided for research, policy, reporting
and administration, sufficient funds are included to expand the
competitively awarded contract for oversight of public and
private initiatives to eliminate the worst forms of child labor
in the cocoa sector in Cote d'Ivoire and Ghana. These funds are
intended to support the assessment of the implementation of the
child labor monitoring system by industry covering 100 percent
of the cocoa growing areas in Cote d'Ivoire and Ghana and other
objectives of the current contract where full assessment has
not been possible due to the delay in the implementation of a
transparent certification system. These funds will support
continued annual reporting through 2010, which should include a
programmatic review of industry and national government efforts
to remediate the worst forms of child labor and adult forced
labor in the cocoa supply chain. The review should also include
recommendations for the frequency of data collection needed in
the field to accurately report on the incidence of the worst
forms of child labor and adult forced labor in order to measure
the decline over time of these abusive labor practices.
Also within research, policy, reporting and administration,
not more than $1,500,000 shall be available for research
activities authorized by the William Wilberforce Trafficking
Victims Protection Reauthorization Act of 2008, as proposed in
the budget request.
Sufficient funding within research, policy, reporting and
administration also is included for the effective oversight,
monitoring, audit and evaluation of ILAB's project portfolio to
ensure that taxpayer dollars are well spent in the effort to
eliminate exploitive child labor, increase respect for and
compliance with the fundamental rights of workers, and meet
ILAB's other mandates and responsibilities. ILAB shall ensure
that funding in this bill is spent effectively in carrying out
its mission and achieving its performance goals and objectives.
Legal Services
The Office of the Solicitor shall support no less than an
increase of five full-time equivalents for enforcement support
for the Mine Safety and Health Administration.
Women's Bureau
Within the funds provided for the Women's Bureau are
sufficient resources for the expansion of a competitive award
designed to support local women's employment and training
programs throughout the United States. These funds shall be
used to continue to support technical assistance, online and
toll-free referral services, and other activities that advance
unemployed and underemployed women in the workforce.
Minority unemployment
The Secretary of Labor shall provide a report to the
Committees on Appropriations of the House of Representatives
and the Senate by July 1, 2009 detailing the actions that the
Department will take under existing authorities to ensure that
its programs and policies are oriented to reduce the
disparities in unemployment rates across racial and ethnic
groups.
Greenhouse gas emissions

Committees on Appropriations of the House of Representatives
and the Senate a detailed inventory of the Department's
greenhouse gas emissions, and a plan to reduce these emissions,
by December 31, 2009.
OFFICE OF JOB CORPS
The bill provides $1,683,938,000 for the Office of Job
Corps, which is $73,432,000 above the fiscal year 2008 funding
level and $119,239,000 above the budget request.
The funds provided for Job Corps Operations are intended to
support the operations of the 122 current Job Corps centers, as
well as allow two new centers, in Florida and Wisconsin, to
begin operations, as scheduled, in program year 2009. The
Department also should work to reverse the erosion in training
offerings that has occurred over the past two years. In
restoring career training slots, priority should be given to
matching training to labor market needs, including growth
sectors, such as health care, and to prepare students for
careers that respond to the growing demand for energy-efficient
building techniques and other ``green'' jobs. Within the funds
provided for Job Corps renovation and construction are
sufficient funds to continue the development of three new Job
Corps centers, with the intention that the timelines for
accepting students at these new centers--New Hampshire in
September 2010, Iowa in November 2010 and Wyoming in February
2011 will be met.
The Department shall conduct a capital assessment of the
Harpers Ferry Job Corps Civilian Conservation Center in Harpers

to the Committees on Appropriations of the House of
Representatives and the Senate not later than March 31, 2009.

services, of which $7,234,436,000 is provided as budget
authority and $25,000,000 is made available from the Public
Health Service policy evaluation set-aside, which is

The bill includes language similar to that contained in the
fiscal year 2008 bill that limits 2008 program year reductions
in Ryan White Part A grants for metropolitan areas to 6.3
percent and for transitional areas to 11.3 percent by providing
$10,853,000 for supplemental grants for fiscal year 2009.
The bill includes language setting aside $92,551,000 for
Special Projects of Regional and National Significance (SPRANS)

Subtotal.................................................... 18,995,000 -1,610,000 +18,995,000
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Within this amount, Doula Grants shall be allocated evenly
among urban and rural settings. Urban settings should be
focused on supporting and expanding community-based activities.
Rural settings should emphasize breastfeeding initiation and
retention.
In addition to the SPRANS funding above for oral health
activities, an additional $10,000,000 is provided for Dental
Health Improvement Act State Grants (authorized under section
340G of the Public Health Service Act) within Allied Health.
Funding for the Heritable Disorders Newborn Screening
Program is provided under the authority of the Newborn
Screening Saves Lives Act of 2008 rather than as a SPRANS set-
aside, as in prior years. The funding total also includes
$5,031,000 for primary genetics and newborn screening
activities that were previously supported in SPRANS base
activities.

improvement and adoption of health information technology.
The Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) is
encouraged to begin an initiative to expand community health
center primary care services to low-income persons with serious
mental illnesses.
HRSA is expected to continue to approve community health
centers' proposed scope of project changes when necessary to
ensure access to needed specialty services or to meet the
comprehensive needs of special populations who may require care
in other types of health care settings.
The bill provides $14,200,000 for Native Hawaiian Health
Care Activities within the Community Health Centers Program.
Sufficient funding has been provided to permit the continuation
of master's degree and certificate programs for Native Hawaiian
health care administrators.
HRSA is directed to implement any new expansion initiative
using the existing, and statutorily-required, proportionality
for urban and rural communities, as well as migrant, homeless
and public housing health centers.
HRSA is urged to confirm that the Federal Torts Claims Act
covers clinicians employed or individually contracted by
community health centers. HRSA is encouraged to work with the
U.S. Department of Agriculture Rural Development Office to
assist more community health centers in accessing these
resources.
The bill includes $75,000,000 for State Health Access
Grants. Grants will be awarded competitively to States that
demonstrate they have a program which will expand access to
affordable health care coverage for the uninsured populations
in that State. States will also be required to demonstrate that
they have achieved the key State and local statutory or
regulatory changes required to implement the new program within
twelve months from the grant start date. States that have
already developed a comprehensive health insurance access
program would not be eligible to apply.
The types of activities that can be supported through this
grant include: ``three share'' community coverage (employer,
State or local government, and the individual); reinsurance
plans that subsidize a certain share of carrier losses within a
certain risk corridor; subsidized high risk insurance pools;
health insurance premium assistance; creation of a state
insurance ``connector'' authority to develop new, less
expensive, portable benefit packages for small employers and
part-time and seasonal workers; development of statewide or
automated enrollment systems for public assistance programs;
and innovative strategies to insure low-income childless
adults.
Two types of State grants will be available: target grants
($2,000,000-$4,000,000 annually per State) for States that
choose to target particular populations such as uninsured
children, small business employees, or uninsured seniors; or
comprehensive grants ($7,000,000-$10,000,000 annually per
State) for States that are planning extensive coverage
initiatives. Each grant will be awarded based on a five-year
grant period, subject to the availability of funds, with
funding distributed each year based on attaining benchmarks
that would be designated in the grant award. States shall be
required to demonstrate their seriousness of intent by matching
twenty percent of the Federal grant through non-Federal
resources, which could be a combination of State, local, and
private dollars from insurers, providers, and other private
organizations. Waiver of the matching requirement shall be
possible if financial hardship is demonstrated. States shall
also be required to demonstrate their ability to sustain the
program without Federal funding after the end of the five-year
grant period. HRSA should consider geographic diversity in the
allocation of these awards. HRSA shall brief the Committees on
Appropriations of the House of Representatives and the Senate
on the terms and conditions of its proposed request for
application prior to its public release.
States shall be required to report to HRSA the impact and
results of their demonstration project at the conclusion of the
five-year grant period. HRSA is encouraged to convene grantees
periodically throughout the period of their award to share
information with each other about their program experiences and
gain ideas for refinement of their programs. HRSA is directed
to submit a comprehensive report to the Committees on
Appropriations of the House of Representatives and Senate about
the outcomes and lessons learned from each of the State
demonstrations eighteen months after the five-year grant period
ends.
HRSA should use National Health Service Corps recruitment
funds only to support multi-year, rather than single year,
commitments.
Of the funds provided for Allied Health Training Programs,
$10,000,000 is for grants to States authorized under section
340G of the Public Health Service Act to improve access to
dental care; $1,945,000 is allocated to the Chiropractic-
Medical School Demonstration Grants; and $1,945,000 is
designated for the Psychology Training Program.

Related Developmental Disorders, an increase of not less than
$2,000,000 is provided to expand the Leadership Education in
Neurodevelopmental and Related Disabilities Program. In
addition, an increase of not less than $2,000,000 is provided
for research on evidence-based practices for interventions for
individuals with autism and other developmental disabilities,
for development of guidelines for those interventions, and for
information dissemination.
HRSA should support Traumatic Brain Injury Protection and
Advocacy Services at no less than the fiscal year 2008 level.
The bill includes $1,000,000 to establish the Congenital
Disabilities Program, which will provide information and
support services to families receiving a diagnosis for Down
syndrome, spina bifida, dwarfism, or other pre-natally or post-
natally diagnosed conditions. Competitive grants may be made to
States and territories, localities, and non-governmental
organizations with expertise in these conditions.
HRSA should allocate funds for the Minority AIDS Initiative
within the Ryan White HIV Programs at least at the fiscal year
2008 level.
With the $7,550,000 provided in the bill for the Telehealth
Program, the Office of the Advancement of Telehealth is
directed to facilitate cooperation among health licensing
boards or various States to develop and implement policies that
will reduce statutory and regulatory barriers to telehealth and
telehomecare. Funding supports grants for resource centers,
networks, pilots, and demonstrations.
HRSA's decision to shift resources from rural health grants
that specialize in rapid response policy analysis to grants
that sponsor more general research is concerning. As Congress
discusses healthcare reform, it will be crucial to have an
accurate analysis of how specific policy proposals impact the
rural population. HRSA is urged to reconsider this decision.
Rural and Community Access to Emergency Devices funding
should be divided equally between urban and rural communities.
The Department of Health and Human Services is instructed
to distribute to the regional offices all of the funds
available for Family Planning services no later than 60 days
following enactment of this Act. Regional offices should retain
the authority for the review, award and administration of
Family Planning funds, in the same manner and timeframe as in
fiscal year 2006. At least 90 percent of Family Planning funds
should be used for clinical services authorized under section
1001 of the Public Health Service Act. The Office of Family
Planning is expected to spend any remaining year-end funds in
section 1001 activities.

health officials to review and revise the TB funding
distribution formula. The agency is directed to create a plan
and submit such plan to the Committees on Appropriations of the
House of Representatives and the Senate by no later than March

With the level of funding provided in the bill for the
Public Health Emergency Preparedness Cooperative Agreements
program, CDC is expected to issue a full year of grants rather
than reducing the grant cycle to nine months and three weeks as
proposed in the budget request.
The bill provides an increase of $16,637,000 over the
fiscal year 2008 funding level for the network of quarantine
stations at ports of entry across the United States. This
funding is provided to maintain the current capacity at the 20
existing domestic quarantine stations, to hire additional
employees to begin to adequately staff and operate these
stations, and provide centralized core support to the
Quarantine and Migration Health System.
The Cities Readiness Initiative (CRI) provides resources to
cities and metropolitan areas around the country to better
distribute countermeasures during public health emergencies.
Concerns have been raised about CDC's revised formula for the
allocation of CRI funds. Several grantees are potentially
facing reductions of up to 48 percent. Significantly reducing
grant awards in a single fiscal year could have a damaging
impact on a jurisdiction's readiness to disburse medical
countermeasures. In this transition to a new formula, CDC
should move gradually in implementation and limit grant award
reductions in 2009. Further, before any final decision is made
on the allocation of fiscal year 2009 resources, CDC should
review this formula again to address the concerns raised by
grantees. Further, CDC shall submit a written report and
provide a briefing to the Committees on Appropriations of the
House of Representatives and the Senate justifying any changes
to the CRI formula distribution used in fiscal year 2007 prior
to issuing final guidance to grantees.

Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality
HEALTHCARE RESEARCH AND QUALITY
The bill includes a program level of $372,053,000 for the
Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ), which is
$37,489,000 more than the fiscal year 2008 program level and
$46,389,000 more than the budget request. The bill makes these
funds fully available through section 241 of the Public Health
Service (PHS) Act.
The bill does not include funding for the Health Insurance
Decision Tool.
The bill includes $50,000,000 for comparative effectiveness
research within the total for Research on Health Costs,
Quality, and Outcomes. This amount is $20,000,000 more than the
fiscal year 2008 funding level and the budget request. The
objective of the program is to research difference healthcare
interventions to help consumers, healthcare providers, and
others make informed choices among treatment options. This
investment will improve healthcare quality.
The investigator-initiated research portfolio at AHRQ has
languished even though many of the sentinel studies that have
changed the face of health and health care in the U.S. are the
result of researchers' ingenuity and creativity. To advance
discovery and the free marketplace of ideas, the bill includes
increased funding to expand investigator-initiated research
within the total for Research on Health Costs, Quality, and
Outcomes.
Within the total for Research on Health Costs, Quality, and
Outcomes, the bill includes $41,889,000 for Patient Safety
Threats and Medical Errors. The bill includes increased funding
to reduce healthcare-associated infections (HAIs) and expand
the Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus Aureus (MRSA) program
begun in fiscal year 2008.
The bill includes $9,304,000 for the Comprehensive Unit
Based Program (CUSP), a patient safety program to reduce
central-line associated blood stream infections in intensive
care units (ICUs). The CUSP is modeled after the Michigan
Keystone Program, which was successfully used in more than 100
ICUs in Michigan and, within three months of implementation,
helped reduce infection rates to zero in more than 50 percent
of the participating hospitals. With fiscal year 2008 funding,
the CUSP is being implemented by State-wide consortiums in 10
different States and includes members of State hospital
associations, quality improvement organizations, and public
health agencies. With the increased funding in fiscal year
2009, AHRQ will be able to increase the number of participating
hospitals within each of the 10 States, as well as increase the
number of participating States, to bring this important and
successful initiative to additional communities and healthcare
facilities. In addition, AHRQ is urged to initiate a similar
approach to CUSP in addressing other HAIs, including urinary
tract infections and surgical site infections, as well as
expand its activities to include research on ways to reduce
HAIs in other healthcare settings, including hospital locations
outside the ICU, dialysis centers, nursing homes, and
ambulatory care settings.
AHRQ received funding in fiscal year 2008 to identify and
reduce the spread of MRSA and other HAIs. Due to concern about
the prevalence of these preventable infections, the bill
provides AHRQ with $8,000,000 to continue its work in this
area. Funding is included to increase AHRQ's investment in
evidence-based research to help healthcare providers and others
implement quality improvement strategies to reduce the
incidence of MRSA and other HAIs. In this effort, AHRQ is
encouraged to continue to develop partnerships with healthcare
delivery networks to implement system-wide MRSA prevention
programs.

Assistance, and Continuing Appropriations Act, 2009, provided
fiscal year 2009 funding of $5,100,000,000 for the Low-Income
Home Energy Assistance program (LIHEAP), which is
$2,529,672,000 above the fiscal year 2008 level and
$3,100,000,000 over the budget request. As a result, this bill
does not include funding for LIHEAP.
REFUGEE AND ENTRANT ASSISTANCE
The bill includes $633,442,000 for Refugee and Entrant
Assistance programs, which is $22,189,000 below the fiscal year

minor programs for capacity development so that they have the
necessary infrastructure to accommodate increasing numbers of
unaccompanied and separated refugee children.
Within the funds provided for Social Services, the bill
includes $19,000,000 for continued support to communities with
large concentrations of Cuban and Haitian entrants of varying
ages whose cultural differences make assimilation especially
difficult, justifying a more intense level and longer duration
of Federal assistance.
The Administration on Children and Families (ACF) is
requested to continue to adequately fund refugee school impact
grants.
In conjunction with the Office of Management and Budget
(OMB) and the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), the
Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) is directed to
submit a report to the House and Senate Committees on
Appropriations (Committees) no later than March 1, 2009,
recommending which agency is the most appropriate to fund the
transportation of unaccompanied alien children (UAC) between

agency can deliver these services in the most cost effective
manner. In addition, starting no later than September 1, 2009,
the ORR, in conjunction with Immigration and Customs
Enforcement, should provide semi-annual briefings to the
Committees on the implementation of the recommendations. For
fiscal year 2009, the Consolidated Security, Disaster
Assistance, and Continuing Appropriations Act, 2009, provides
sufficient resources to DHS to pay for this transportation
function.
With regard to the UAC program, ORR is directed to respond
to the DHS initial call for placement by identifying the ORR
placement facility to DHS within six hours, on average, of
receiving the DHS call. In addition, ORR shall continue to work
with DHS to expedite the transfer and placement of these
special needs children in the most appropriate facility as
quickly as possible.
Within funds for the UAC program, $5,050,000 is provided to
continue the pro bono legal services initiative to ensure legal
representation of all UAC. These funds should be used to train
attorneys to detect abuse, mistreatment, labor exploitation,
and trafficking of these children. In addition, a portion of
these funds should be used to train attorneys in methods that
will ensure the appearance of children at all immigration court
hearings. ORR is expected to use part of these funds to assess
the overall impact of the pro bono legal services initiative,
including the number and proportion of UAC provided pro bono
legal representation.
The bill includes $9,050,000 more than the budget request
for the UAC program to ensure that sufficient funds are
available for UAC medical and transportation services.
PAYMENTS TO STATES FOR THE CHILD CARE AND DEVELOPMENT BLOCK GRANT
The bill includes $2,127,081,000 for the Child Care and
Development Block Grant, which is $65,000,000 above the fiscal
year 2008 level and the budget request. The bill designates
$18,960,000 for child care resource and referral and school-
aged child care activities, $1,000,000 for the Child Care Aware
toll-free hotline, $271,401,000 for an additional amount for
activities authorized under section 658G, including $99,534,000
to improve the quality of infant and toddler care, and
$9,910,000 for child care research, demonstration, and
evaluation activities.
SOCIAL SERVICES BLOCK GRANT
The bill includes $1,700,000,000 for the Social Services
Block Grant, which is the same as the fiscal year 2008 level.
The amended budget request did not include any funds for this
program.
CHILDREN AND FAMILIES SERVICES PROGRAMS
The bill includes $9,301,111,000 for Children and Families
Services Programs. This amount is $330,620,000 above the fiscal
year 2008 level and $807,901,000 above the budget request. In
addition, $10,217,000 is provided through the evaluation set-
aside.
The bill provides $7,112,786,000 for Head Start activities,
which is a program level increase of $234,810,000 above the
fiscal year 2008 level. Within the total, the bill designates
$2,000,000 for centers of excellence in early childhood
education authorized by section 657B of the Improving Head
Start for School Readiness Act, 2007. The ACF Head Start Bureau
shall continue to provide the House and Senate Committees on
Appropriations (Committees) with the number and cost of buses
purchased, by region, with Head Start funds in the annual
Congressional budget justifications. In addition, ACF is
requested to report to the Committees on fiscal year 2009
funding allocations to Migrant and Seasonal and Indian Head
Start and provide a briefing to the Committees within 30 days
of the release of the study on these targeted populations
required under the Head Start Act.
Within the amount provided in the bill for Child Abuse
Discretionary Activities, $13,500,000 is provided to expand the
home visitation initiative. These funds shall support
continuing and new competitive grants to States to encourage
investment of existing funding streams into evidence-based home
visitation models that have been shown to improve the health,
well-being, and self-sufficiency of low-income, first-time
parents and their children. As in fiscal year 2008, ACF shall
ensure that these funds support models that have been shown in
well-designed, randomized controlled trials to produce
sizeable, sustained effects on important child outcomes such as
reductions in abuse and neglect. Funds shall support activities
to assist a range of home visitation programs to replicate the
techniques that have met these high evidentiary standards. In
carrying out this initiative, ACF is instructed to adhere
closely to evidence-based models of home visitation. ACF shall
not incorporate any additional initiatives that have not met
these high evidentiary standards or might otherwise dilute the
emphasis on home visitation.
The bill also includes $500,000 within Child Abuse
Discretionary Activities for a feasibility study on the
creation, development, and maintenance of a national child
abuse and neglect offender registry.
Within the $16,910,000 included in the bill, $2,412,000
shall be used for the following projects in the following
amounts:
[GRAPHIC(S) NOT AVAILABLE IN TIFF FORMAT]
For Adoption Awareness, the bill provides $12,953,000, of
which $10,058,000 is for the Infant Adoption Awareness Training
Program and $2,895,000 is for the Special Needs Adoption
Campaign.
Within the $16,910,000 included in the bill, $14,498,000
shall be used for the following projects in the following
amounts:
[GRAPHIC(S) NOT AVAILABLE IN TIFF FORMAT]
Within the amount for Projects of National Significance,
the bill provides $2,000,000 for the purposes of providing and
promoting leadership training by and for families with children
with disabilities, as described in section 202(b)(2) of the
Families of Children with Disabilities Support Act of 2000.
Such training shall be designed to increase access to and
availability of family support services and must address policy
development, implementation and evaluation of family support
services for families with children with disabilities. To
maximize the sustainability of the outcomes of the leadership
training supported by these funds, the Secretary shall
distribute these funds as competitive grants to one or more
national non-profit organizations with demonstrated capacity at
the State and local level to foster and provide direct services
to families with children with disabilities.
The bill provides a $1,000,000 increase over the fiscal
year 2008 level for the University Centers for Excellence in
Developmental Disabilities, which may be used to provide a
cost-of-living adjustment to existing centers and to establish
new grants to work through partnerships with minority-serving
institutions. These new grants, if awarded, will focus
research, training and services on minority populations with
disabilities.
The bill provides a $1,500,000 increase over the fiscal
year 2008 level for activities authorized under section
803C(b)(7)(A)-(C) of the Native American Programs Act (as added
by the Esther Martinez Native American Languages Preservation
Act of 2006).
With regard to the Community Services Block Grant (CSBG),
ACF is directed to allocate $500,000 of CSBG training and
technical assistance funds for a national community economic
development training and capacity development initiative.
Successful implementation of community development programs
requires significant investment in high-quality board and staff
training and proven technical assistance. This funding will
enable community action agency leaders to attain the
professional skills needed to undertake projects to enhance
their communities' future security through financing and
implementing innovative housing, economic and community
development partnerships.
The bill includes language clarifying Congressional intent
regarding disposition of intangible assets--including loans and
investments--acquired under the community economic development
authority of the CSBG Act. The bill continues the policy in
place since 1999 that establishes a regulatory period of up to
12 years after the end of the grant period. During that period,
as the grantee receives repayments or program income from these
loans or investments, the grantee is permitted to recycle these
funds into other similar projects. After that time, the
intangible assets and program income become the property of the
grantee provided they are used in a manner consistent with the
intent of the authorizing statute. The bill clarifies that
recycled and repaid loan or investment funds or program income
may be used in any low-income community for any eligible
purpose under the law and is not restricted to the original
target area, financing, or type of project for which the
grantee was originally funded. The language applies not only to
new grantees but also to grantees for whom the post-grant
period has reached a point at which the disposition of
intangible assets must be made.
Funds provided in the bill for the Rural Community
Facilities program shall be used solely for the purpose of
improving water and wastewater facilities in poor, rural
communities. As in the past, these funds should be allocated to
regional rural community assistance programs.
The ACF Office of Community Services is expected to remedy
during fiscal year 2009 a failure (1) to report on progress
made in remedying oversight deficiencies identified by the
Government Accountability Office and (2) to comply with a
fiscal year 2005 Congressional directive to implement a
training and technical assistance needs assessment and delivery
plan in consultation with CSBG State and local eligible
entities.
The bill provides funds for Abstinence Education as defined
in section 510(b)(2) of the Social Security Act and includes
language precluding grantees who receive abstinence education
funding from discussing with adolescents any other education
regarding sexual conduct in the same setting as abstinence
education. It also requires that information provided through
abstinence education grants shall be scientifically accurate
and comply with section 317P(c)(2) of the Public Health Service
Act.
Further, the bill provides that up to $10,000,000 may be
used to carry out a national abstinence education campaign and
$4,455,000 shall be available from section 241 Public Health
Service Act evaluation funds to carry out evaluations of
adolescent pregnancy prevention approaches. Finally, up to 5
percent of funds may be set aside for technical assistance and
capacity-building, which shall be used to ensure that programs
are using evidence-based curricula that comply with statutory
requirements.
Within Program Administration, the bill includes $1,500,000
for the National Commission on Children and Disasters. The
funds included in this bill may be used for personnel, travel,
and any other necessary expenses of the Commission. The
Commission is expected to build on the evaluations of other
entities and avoid unnecessary duplication, by reviewing the
findings, conclusions, and recommendations of various
commissions, Federal, State, and local governments, and
nongovernmental entities as to the needs of children as they
relate to preparation for, response to, and recovery from all
hazards, including major disasters and emergencies. ACF is
requested to submit a report to the House and Senate Committees
on Appropriations on the progress of the Commission within one
year of its initial meeting. While Departmental funds will
support the operations of the Commission, the Commission is
expected to operate independently in order to provide unbiased
recommendations to the President and the Congress.
PROMOTING SAFE AND STABLE FAMILIES
The bill includes $345,000,000 in mandatory funds for the
Promoting Safe and Stable Families program, which is the same
as the fiscal year 2008 level and the budget request. The bill
includes $63,311,000 in discretionary funds for this program,
which is the same as the fiscal year 2008 level and the budget
request.
PAYMENTS TO STATES FOR FOSTER CARE AND ADOPTION ASSISTANCE
The bill includes $5,050,000,000 for Payments to States for
Foster Care and Adoption Assistance, which is $17,000,000 below
the fiscal year 2008 level and $46,000,000 below the budget
request. The amount provided varies from the President's
request because of the enactment of the Fostering Connections
to Success and Improving Adoptions Act of 2008 and reflects
updated estimates provided by the Department.
Administration on Aging
AGING SERVICES PROGRAMS
The bill includes $1,491,343,000 for Aging Services
Programs, which is $77,908,000 above the fiscal year 2008
funding level and $109,959,000 above the budget request.
Protection of Vulnerable Older Americans
Within the total of $21,383,000 provided for the Protection
of Vulnerable Older Americans, $16,327,000 is for the Long-term
Care Ombudsman Program and $5,056,000 is for the Prevention of
Elder Abuse, Neglect, and Exploitation Program.
Program Innovations
The bill includes $18,172,000 for Program Innovations,
which is $3,517,000 more than the fiscal year 2008 funding
level and $14,746,000 less than the budget request. The
Administration on Aging (AoA) is directed to include in the
fiscal year 2010 and all future budget justifications a table
of Program Innovations funding broken down by account, program,
and activity, which includes actual funding or estimates for
the previous, current, and future fiscal years.
Within the total for Program Innovations, funding is
provided at no less than the fiscal year 2008 levels for
national programs scheduled to be refunded in fiscal year 2009.
Within these funds, the bill includes $2,000,000 for the Senior
Legal Hotlines/Helplines, which will provide an increase in the
number of States in which these services are available for
older Americans. The bill also includes $1,000,000 to continue
a 24-hour call center to provide Alzheimer's family caregivers
with professional care consultation and crisis intervention.
In addition, within Program Innovations the bill includes
$5,000,000 for the Community Innovations for Aging in Place
program, created by the Older Americans Act reauthorization in
2006. This funding will provide grants to community-based
organizations to coordinate and deliver services to elderly
residents living in naturally occurring retirement communities
and other model aging in place initiatives. AoA is encouraged
to ensure that these initiatives are coordinated with existing
programming included in the Older Americans Act, including
Aging and Disability Resource Centers, Nursing Home Diversion,
and Evidence-Based Prevention activities.
AoA has worked to further civic engagement among older
Americans, particularly through a Memorandum of Understanding
with the Corporation for National and Community Service. AoA is
urged to continue to advance the field of civic engagement, as
authorized under section 417 of the Older Americans Act, by
entering into additional partnerships with organizations that
offer innovative and proven programs to enable older Americans
to effectively meet critical social needs.
The bill includes $5,123,000 for the following projects in
the following amounts:
[GRAPHIC(S) NOT AVAILABLE IN TIFF FORMAT]
Aging Network Support Activities
The bill recommends $41,694,000 for Aging Network Support
Activities, which is $10,105,000 more than the fiscal year 2008
funding level and $28,561,000 more than the budget request. AoA
is directed to include in the fiscal year 2010 and all future
budget justifications a table of Aging Network Support
Activities funding broken down by account, program, and
activity, which includes actual funding or estimates for the
previous, current, and future fiscal years. Within the funds
provided, the bill includes $1,719,000 for the Pension
Counseling and Information Program, to increase training and
technical support for the counseling projects and to maintain
the number of regional counseling projects at six.
The bill also includes $28,000,000 to continue national
implementation of the Choices for Independence program. Funding
is provided for this program in Aging Network Support
Activities, as reflected in the reauthorized Older Americans
Act, and is intended to build on national implementation
activities already in place. In contrast, the Administration
requested these funds within the Program Innovations account
and limited this program to narrow trials in only a few States.
The Choices for Independence program seeks to establish long-
term care options for seniors so they can live independently in
their own communities. The program will continue and expand
existing AoA programs that focus on Nursing Home Diversion,
Aging and Disability Resource Centers and Evidence-Based
Disease Prevention activities. In implementing these
activities, AoA is encouraged to continue its close partnership
efforts with the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services,
the National Institute on Aging, the Centers for Disease
Control and Prevention, and other agencies.
AoA shall report to the Committees on Appropriations of the
House of Representatives and the Senate by no later than March
1, 2009 on the establishment of national standards that will be
used to evaluate the Choices for Independence Program,
including the performance measures and indicators States must
use to track and report on the outputs and outcomes they
achieve. AoA should include in future Congressional budget
submissions, the number of people served by these programs,
funding breakdowns for each component of the program, and on
the progress States are making in implementing these
activities.
The bill does not provide funding for the National Center
on Senior Benefits Outreach and Enrollment. Section 119 of P.L.
110-275, the Medicare Improvements for Patients and Providers
Act of 2008 provided $17,500,000 to the AoA for Medicare
enrollment assistance, including $5,000,000 specifically to
inform seniors about benefits available under existing Federal
and State programs. Bill language has been included to allow
the AoA to administer these funds.
Office of the Secretary
GENERAL DEPARTMENTAL MANAGEMENT
(INCLUDING TRANSFER OF FUNDS)
The bill includes $395,776,000 for General Departmental
Management, including $5,851,000 from Medicare trust funds.
This total is $41,762,000 above the fiscal year 2008 level and
$15,912,000 above the budget request. In addition, $46,756,000
in program evaluation funding is provided. The bill also
provides that $1,000,000 shall be transferred, not later than
30 days after enactment of this Act, to the National Institute
of Mental Health to administer the Interagency Autism
Coordinating Committee (IACC), which will support the IACC's
work authorized under the Combating Autism Act of 2006.
Office of the Secretary
The bill includes sufficient funds to continue the Area and
National Poverty Centers at no less than the fiscal year 2008
level.
The Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) is
expected to maintain support for the U.S.-Mexico Border Health
Commission at the same level as in fiscal year 2008.
The HHS Secretary is directed to provide a detailed
inventory of the Department's greenhouse gas emissions and a
plan to reduce these emissions by December 31, 2009 to the
Committees on Appropriations of the House of Representatives
and the Senate.
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention
(CDC), healthcare-associated infections (HAIs) are one of the
top ten leading causes of death in the United States,
accounting for an estimated 99,000 associated deaths and $20
billion in excess healthcare costs annually. HAIs are largely
preventable. HHS is commended for its work in developing a
national action plan with five year targets for reducing HAIs.
The Department is directed to continue the HHS Steering
Committee for the Prevention of HAIs, and associated
workgroups, that it has established to coordinate prevention
and implementation, research, information systems and
technology, compliance and oversight, and public and provider
outreach activities across the operating divisions of the
Department.
To accelerate progress on preventing HAIs and to begin
implementation of the national action plan, the bill includes
nearly $22,000,000 in additional funding over the fiscal year
2008 funding level for HAI-related initiatives within the
Department. These increases include $5,000,000 within the
Office of the Secretary, $7,500,000 within CDC and $9,304,000
within the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ).
The Office of the Secretary shall use the additional $5,000,000
to develop and implement a national campaign to empower
consumers to be active participants in preventing HAIs; perform
a comprehensive inventory of HAI data and databases; enhance
prevention, surveillance, and research activities; improve
integration of data across HHS systems; expand measures in CMS'
Hospital Compare and improve regulatory oversight of hospitals
and the hospital accreditation program; provide management
support to the HHS Steering Committee for the Prevention of
HAIs; and conduct other priority activities related to reducing
HAIs. A description of how the funds provided to CDC and AHRQ
shall be used is included in the explanatory statement under
those operating divisions.
To ensure that greater attention to this problem also
occurs at the State level, the bill includes language within
CDC requiring States to certify to the HHS Secretary that they
will submit plans for reducing HAIs by January 1, 2010 to be
eligible to receive a full allotment in this Act under the
Preventive Health and Health Services Block Grant. The bill
also directs HHS to conduct a review of these State plans and
report to the Committees on Appropriations of the House of
Representatives and the Senate not later than June 1, 2010
regarding the adequacy of such plans for achieving State and
national goals for reducing HAIs.
It is noted that although 27 years have passed since HIV/
AIDS was first identified in the U.S., there has never been a
national plan to guide the coordination of prevention, care,
and treatment programs. Further, the U.S. currently requires
foreign countries receiving assistance to combat HIV/AIDS to
develop and implement a single coordinated national AIDS
strategy. HHS is encouraged to develop and implement a single
national AIDS strategy to promote coordination among Federal
agencies and State and local governments, set clear goals and
benchmarks, and provide a basis for ensuring accountability.
Approximately 36 States have prescription drug repository
programs, also known as prescription drug redistribution
programs. These programs, often volunteer-driven, may save the
health care system millions of dollars every year by allowing
unused, unopened medications to be re-dispensed to patients who
meet certain need-based criteria. Due to the potential for
substantial savings that these programs have shown, HHS is
directed to conduct a study of State drug repository programs,
with recommendations for how the Federal government can assist
States in implementing and expanding these programs. This study
also should include an estimate of potential cost savings and
identify best practices, including ways to maintain patient
safety. HHS shall submit this report to the House and Senate
Committees on Appropriations no later than January 1, 2010.
Due to the growing demand for, and lack of well-trained,
social workers to serve a variety of needs for individuals,
families, and communities throughout the nation, HHS is
directed to provide a report to the Committees on
Appropriations of the House of Representatives and the Senate
within one year of enactment of this Act. This report shall
analyze current workforce trends and gaps in incentives, and
provide recommendations for the recruitment and retention of
professional social workers.
The bill includes $1,000,000 for the Interagency Working
Group on Youth Programs, chaired by HHS. These funds shall be
used to solicit input from young people, State children's
cabinet directors, and non-profit organizations on youth
programs and policies; develop an overarching strategic plan
for Federal youth policy; and prepare recommendations to
improve the coordination, effectiveness, and efficiency of
programs affecting youth.
The bill provides $7,000,000 for a Health Diplomacy
Initiative in the Department of Health and Human Services. This
health initiative will focus on training health care workers
and providing other services in, but not limited to, Central
and South America. This health diplomacy initiative will help
control diseases such as HIV/AIDS, tuberculosis, and malaria by
giving local residents the training they need to provide basic
health care in Latin America and other underserved communities.
Trauma is the most important cause of morbidity and
mortality among children and adolescents, accounting for nearly
16,000 deaths, 250,000 hospital admissions and 9 million
emergency department visits annually. While the goal is to
deliver optimal care to injured children so that they attain
the best possible outcomes after serious trauma, many questions
about what constitutes optimal care remain unanswered. This
gives rise to the tremendous variations in care and settings we
see today. The HHS Secretary is directed to conduct a national
prospective study on the variation in trauma care for children
and adolescents in order to understand how the organization and
processes of treatment affect outcomes and submit a report to
the Committees on Appropriations of the House of
Representatives and the Senate within six months of enactment
of this Act that outlines how the Secretary will conduct this
study.
The Assistant Secretary of Planning and Evaluation (ASPE)
shall review the fiscal year 2008 awards under the home
visitation initiative administered by the Administration for
Children and Families and shall assess, in consultation with
the Office of Management and Budget and independent experts if
necessary, whether these awards met the evidentiary standards
for this initiative specified in the explanatory statement for
the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2008. In addition, ASPE
shall review any request for proposals for fiscal year 2009
awards for adherence to the evidentiary standards in this
explanatory statement. ASPE shall report its findings to the
Committees on Appropriations of the House of Representatives
and the Senate by September 30, 2009.
The bill includes $2,854,000 for the following projects in
the following amounts:
[GRAPHIC(S) NOT AVAILABLE IN TIFF FORMAT]
Lifespan respite care
The bill includes new funding of $2,500,000 for the
Lifespan Respite Care Act. These funds will be used to support
coordinated systems of community-based respite care services
for family caregivers of children and adults with special
needs.
Office of Minority Health (OMH)
The bill includes $5,283,000 for the effort to address
health disparities issues in the gulf coast region.
The bill includes $1,000,000 for the OMH, in conjunction
with the Surgeon General and the Office of Women's Health, to
conduct a national health provider education program to improve
lupus diagnosis and treatment and reduce health disparities.
OMH is encouraged to involve a wide array of public health,
community, academic, medical, and industry organizations,
including those working to improve medical curricula. OMH shall
provide a report by May 1, 2009 on lupus, associated health
disparities, and impact of the disease on the population to the
Committees on Appropriations of the House of Representatives
and the Senate.
Office of Women's Health (OWH)
The bill includes $1,500,000 to expand the OWH violence
against women prevention initiative. The additional funds above
the budget request shall be used to enhance health care
providers' understanding of domestic and dating violence, and
to develop a coordinated public health response regarding the
domestic violence issues.
The bill includes $1,000,000 to continue the national lupus
education campaign, in conjunction with the OMH and the Surgeon
General, directed toward the general public and health
professionals who diagnose and treat people with lupus.
Minority HIV/AIDS
The Office of the Secretary is expected to support
activities that are targeted to address the growing HIV/AIDS
epidemic and its disproportionate impact upon communities of
color, including African Americans, Latinos, Native Americans,
Asian Americans, Native Hawaiians, and Pacific Islanders, at no
less than last year's funding level.
Embryo donation and adoption
Increasing public awareness of embryo donation and adoption
remains an important goal. The bill provides $4,200,000 for
HHS's embryo donation and adoption awareness activities. The
costs associated with embryo adoption may be hindering people
from participating in embryo adoption. The medical procedures
involved can be expensive and are not always successful. To
address those challenges, the bill includes language allowing
funds appropriated for embryo donation and adoption activities
to be available to pay medical and administrative costs deemed
necessary to facilitate embryo donations and adoptions. It is
intended that funds in the bill be used for embryo donation for
family building and/or embryo adoption and that eligibility not
be limited based on the terminology used to describe the
transfer of the embryo.
OFFICE OF MEDICARE HEARINGS AND APPEALS
The bill includes $64,604,000 for the Office of Medicare
Hearings and Appeals, which is $740,000 above the fiscal year
2008 level and $740,000 below the budget request.
OFFICE OF THE NATIONAL COORDINATOR FOR HEALTH INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY
The bill includes $61,231,000 for this activity, of which
$43,552,000 is provided in budget authority and $17,679,000 is
made available through the Public Health Service program
evaluation tap. This level is $670,000 above the fiscal year
2008 level and $4,920,000 below the budget request.
OFFICE OF INSPECTOR GENERAL (OIG)
The bill includes $45,279,000 for the Office of Inspector
General, which is $2,048,000 above the fiscal year 2008 level
and $779,000 below the budget request. Bill language is
included requiring that at least forty percent of the funds
provided be used only for investigations, audits, and
evaluations pertaining to the discretionary programs funded in
the Labor-HHS-Education Appropriations Act. The OIG should
submit a report to the Committees on Appropriations of the
House of Representatives and the Senate by March 1, 2009
describing the OIG workplan development process, the assessment
of relative Federal risk in the discretionary programs funded
in the Labor-HHS-Education Appropriations Act, and the process
used to rank for action program requests from various executive
and legislative branch offices. The OIG is directed to continue
its investigation of contracting procedures at the Centers for
Disease Control and Prevention and the agency's use of contract
employees and report to the Committees on Appropriations of the
House of Representatives and the Senate by June 1, 2009.
OFFICE FOR CIVIL RIGHTS
The bill includes $40,099,000 for the Office for Civil
Rights, of which $3,314,000 is made available from the Federal
Hospital Insurance Trust Fund and the Federal Supplementary
Medical Insurance Trust Fund. This level is $5,800,000 above
the fiscal year 2008 level and the same as the budget request.
RETIREMENT PAY AND MEDICAL BENEFITS FOR COMMISSIONED OFFICERS
The bill includes $434,694,000 for retirement pay and
medical benefits for commissioned officers, which is
$37,516,000 above the fiscal year 2008 level and the same as
the budget request.
PUBLIC HEALTH AND SOCIAL SERVICES EMERGENCY FUND
(INCLUDING TRANSFER OF FUNDS)
The bill includes $1,397,795,000 for the Public Health and
Social Services Emergency Fund (PHSSEF), which is $668,536,000
more than the fiscal year 2008 funding level and $903,036,000
less than the budget request.
In order to accelerate progress in the procurement of
medical countermeasures through Project BioShield and for
pandemic influenza preparedness, the bill includes language
transferring $412,000,000 from the Project BioShield advance
appropriations provided in the Department of Homeland Security
Appropriations Act, 2004. Of this amount, $275,000,000 is to
fund the Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority
(BARDA) and $137,000,000 is for pandemic influenza preparedness
and response activities.
Currently, there are large carryover balances in Project
BioShield; approximately $3,575,000,000 remains available in
fiscal year 2009 from funds provided in fiscal year 2004. A
significant reason for this carryover is that there are
insufficient chemical, biological, radiological, or nuclear
countermeasures ready for acquisition by Project BioShield into
the Strategic National Stockpile. The funds provided in this
bill are included to spur the development of these
countermeasures from early discovery phases through the
advanced clinical trials necessary for FDA approval. Without a
greater investment in advanced research and development of
these countermeasures, Project BioShield will not succeed.
The Secretary of Health and Human Services is directed to

DIVISION G--LEGISLATIVE BRANCH APPROPRIATIONS ACT, 2009
TITLE I
Diversity in Hiring and Advancement.--While many
Legislative Branch agencies have achieved reasonable diversity
at the lower wage tiers, diversity levels are sharply lower
among managers and executives. More can be done to maximize
diversity in the workplace, especially in the executive ranks.
All Legislative Branch agencies who have not done so are
directed to adopt by May 31, 2009 a formal written policy, in
accordance with all applicable Federal laws, to develop and
institute an affirmative action plan with specific goals and
objectives to further the ability of women, minorities, and
individuals with disabilities to achieve balanced
representation within the Legislative Branch workforce and
management.
SENATE
The bill includes $895,030,000 for Senate operations. This
amount is $63,334,000 above the current level and is
$45,867,000 below the budget request.
HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
The bill includes $1,301,267,000 for House operations. This
amount is $118,432,000 above the current level and is
$32,594,000 below the budget request.
Electronic Access to Hearing Documents.--To reduce costs
and reduce the carbon footprint of the operations of the House
of Representatives and expand public access to congressional
information, committees of the House are encouraged to post
their hearings online on the Government Printing Office web
site, GPO Access. Online posting of hearings can help reduce
the need for printing and storage of paper copies of hearing
records and facilitate accessibility for congressional staff
and the general public.
Expanded Hours for the House Fitness Center.--The physical
and mental health of House staff is important. The Chief
Administrative Officer of the House is asked to review the
``extended hours'' pilot program and if appropriate explore the
possibilities of further extending the hours of operation of
the fitness facility.
Expanded Hours for the Child Care Center.--Expanded hours
of operation at the House Child Care Center need to be
considered to accommodate employees who must work late hours.
The Chief Administrative Officer of the House is asked to study
the feasibility and costs associated with extending the hours
of operation beyond the standard work day. This study should be
completed and provided to the House Committee on Appropriations
no later than June 30, 2009.
Child Care Center Playground.--The current playground at
the House Child Care Center frequently overheats in the summer,
uses space inefficiently, and lacks many child development
tools that would benefit children at the Center. The Architect
of the Capitol (AOC) and the Office of the Chief Administrative
Officer (CAO) of the House should make the project a priority
and develop a plan to ensure that the playground is ready by
summer 2009. Accordingly, AOC and the CAO are asked to submit a
report to the House Committee on Appropriations on the status
of the playground within 30 days of enactment of this Act. The
report should include a detailed work plan with specific dates
of when the planning, design, and construction of the
playground will be complete as well as the actions being taken
to ensure that the playground is open by summer 2009.
Congressional Technology Coordination.--The House of
Representatives needs a strategic and coordinated plan that
will prepare for the future technology needs of the
institution. A 2006 report commissioned by the Chief
Administrative Officer and the Committee on House
Administration, entitled Strategic Technology Road Map for the
Ten Year Vision of Technology in the House of Representatives,
provided a suggested structure for Information Technology
evaluation and decision making. The Chief Administrative
Officer, the Clerk, and the Sergeant at Arms are asked to
prepare a report by June 30, 2009 on their efforts or plans to
develop House-wide data-sharing standards; implement standard
legislative document formats; address the increasing resource
challenges of Member offices; and identify disparate systems
throughout the institution that prevent it from taking
advantage of economies of scale.
JOINT ITEMS
Joint Economic Committee
The bill provides $4,626,000 for the Joint Economic
Committee. This amount is $228,000 above the current level and
is the same as the budget request.
Joint Committee on Taxation
The bill provides $10,719,000 for the Joint Committee on
Taxation. This amount is $1,522,000 above the current level and
is $420,000 below the budget request.
OFFICE OF THE ATTENDING PHYSICIAN
The bill provides $3,105,000 for the Office of the
Attending Physician. This amount is $314,000 above the current
level and is $7,000 above the budget request. The amount above
the budget request provides an allowance for a Senior Medical
Officer.
OFFICE OF CONGRESSIONAL ACCESSIBILITY SERVICES
The bill provides $800,000 for the Office of Congressional
Accessibility Services. This is a successor office to the
Special Services Office following enactment of the Capitol
Visitor Center Act of 2008.
Capitol Guide Service and Special Services Office
The bill provides $9,940,000 for the Capitol Guide Service.
This amount is available for the Architect of the Capitol to
use as part of the Capitol Visitor Center appropriation due to
the transfer of the Capitol Guide Service to the Architect of
the Capitol following enactment of the Capitol Visitor Center
Act of 2008.
Statements of Appropriations
The bill provides $30,000 for Statements of Appropriations.
This amount is the same as the current level and is also the
same as the budget request.
CAPITOL POLICE
Salaries
The bill provides $248,000,000 for salaries and benefits of
the Capitol Police. This amount is $15,782,000 above the
current level and is $21,223,000 below the budget request. The
Capitol Police are expected to proceed with filling vacancies
on the basis of management-determined priorities, and to
provide the Committees on Appropriations notification of such
determinations on a regular basis.
This level of funding will support the current staffing
level of 1702 sworn and 414 civilian FTEs. In addition,
increases in FTEs have been provided which are associated with
the Library of Congress Police Merger for fiscal year 2009: 73
sworn, 24 sworn attrition, and 4 civilian support staff. An
additional 10 sworn FTE have been funded related to maintaining
the operations in the Cannon and Russell tunnels with the
opening of the Capitol Visitor Center. The total authorized
FTEs for fiscal year 2009 are 1799 sworn and 418 civilian.
It is noted that there is confusion and inconsistency
concerning whether Capitol Police staffing authorization and
utilization are reported as positions or FTEs. It is expected
that budget submissions and agency reports use FTEs consistent
with the OMB definition.
General Expenses
The bill provides $57,750,000 for general expenses of the
Capitol Police. This amount is $8,972,000 above the current
level and is $6,681,000 below the budget request. It includes
$2,750,000 for the Capitol Police to begin migrating accounting
services to the Library of Congress as part of an effort to
move towards financial management cross-servicing for as many
Legislative Branch agencies as practicable in order to achieve
cost savings through the elimination of duplicative systems.
Vehicle Fleet.--There is concern about the size of the
Capitol Police's overall vehicle fleet. The Capitol Police
shall submit a vehicle analysis by April 30, 2009 justifying
the overall size of its fleet, including motorcycles, and
showing a detailed five year plan to manage the fleet. This
plan should include an analysis of Home-To-Work vehicles,
including justifications for this use, and an update on the
Department's effort to utilize more energy efficient vehicles.
The Department shall refrain from purchasing, leasing or
acquiring vehicles without notifying the Committees on
Appropriations until the Committees have reviewed the detailed
five year plan.
Administrative Provision
(INCLUDING TRANSFER OF FUNDS)
Section 1001 authorizes transfers between the Salaries and
General Expenses accounts upon the approval of the Committees
on Appropriations.
OFFICE OF COMPLIANCE
Salaries and Expenses
The bill provides $4,072,000 for salaries and expenses of
the Office of Compliance. This amount is $730,000 above the
current level and is $236,000 below the budget request. It
provides for 21 FTEs.
The Office of Compliance (OOC) should operate in a
consistent, well-documented manner when dealing with regulated
agencies, balancing compliance assistance with enforcement
responsibilities. However, the OOC has not established clear
documentation of the processes and criteria for issuing
findings or citations, or for accepting agencies' proposed
abatement plans. Furthermore, OOC has failed to establish a
process for dispute resolution mechanisms for citations or
technical disagreements. It is expected that the Office will
act to establish documented procedures and continue to work to
improve its communication with the regulated community. A
report to the Committees on Appropriations is due within 60
days of enactment of this Act.
CONGRESSIONAL BUDGET OFFICE
Salaries and Expenses
The bill provides $44,082,000 for salaries and expenses of
the Congressional Budget Office. This amount is $6,776,000
above the current level and is $1,342,000 above the budget
request. It will fund an additional 15 FTEs required for health
care analysis and other congressional priorities as well as
fund the Congressional Budget Office's new responsibilities
under the Emergency Economic Stabilization Act of 2008.
ARCHITECT OF THE CAPITOL
General Administration
The bill includes $90,659,000, of which $1,505,000 will
remain available until September 30, 2013, for General
Administration. This amount is $10,962,000 above the current
level and is $8,452,000 below the budget request.
It is expected that the Architect of the Capitol will be
part of the cross-servicing approach being developed within the
Legislative Branch. The Architect of the Capitol is directed to
suspend efforts to pursue an independent effort.

Center, of which $31,124,000 will be available until expended
for the purpose of completing construction of the Center and
$9,103,000 is available for operations. The total amount is
$11,546,000 above the current level and is $4,320,000 below the
budget request.
In addition, funds included under the Capitol Guide Service
account are available to the Architect of the Capitol for the
Capitol Visitor Center due to the transfer of the Capitol Guide
Service to the Architect of the Capitol as part of the Capitol
Visitor Center Act of 2008.
It is expected that any reprogramming of funds from the
program, project and activity levels agreed to within this
account by the Committees on Appropriations shall be subject to
the normal reprogramming requirements.
Staff Tour Training.--Concerns have been raised about the
quality and consistency of the training program for staff-led
tours, known as the Congressional Historical Interpretive
Training Program (CHIP). It is expected that improvements will
be made to ensure this program is meeting expectations to
enhance staff-led tours. The Chief Executive Officer for
Visitor Services is directed to present within 30 days of
enactment of this Act proposals for improving the program,
without an increase in budgetary resources.
Hispanic and Asian American Exhibits.--There is continuing
concern about the lack of representation of Hispanic and Asian
American groups in the CVC, as well as African Americans,
women, and Pacific Islanders. The Architect of the Capitol and
the Chief Executive Officer for Visitor Services are directed
to prepare a report within 90 days after enactment of this Act
on the options and costs associated to remedy these omissions.
Administrative Provisions
Section 1101 provides for proceeds from certain recycling
programs being applied to other environmentally friendly
efforts. Section 1102 provides for the leasing of space for the
Library of Congress by the Architect of the Capitol.
LIBRARY OF CONGRESS
Salaries and Expenses
The bill includes $412,680,000 for salaries and expenses of
the Library of Congress, plus $6,350,000 in offsetting
receipts. This amount is $24,219,000 above the current level
and is $932,000 above the budget request. The bill includes
specific amounts for designated purposes and provides
$7,511,000 in support of the National Digital Information and
Infrastructure Preservation Program (NDIIPP).
The Inspectors General of the Legislative Branch
participating in a financial system cross-servicing agreement
with the Library's Office of the Chief Financial Officer are
directed to select a single independent auditing firm to
conduct the annual financial statement audits for the
participating agencies. The Inspectors General of these
agencies shall form a committee, chaired by the Library's
Inspector General or their appointee, to facilitate the effort
to select a common auditor.
Asian American and Pacific Islander Collection.--It is
encouraging that the Library of Congress has committed to
establish an Asian American and Pacific Islander (AAPI)
Collection within the Asian Division. The goal of the AAPI
collection would not only be to finally collect and catalogue
the numerous materials already within the Library, but also to
expand to a nationally coordinated effort to catalogue and
build upon the resources from other collections. The AAPI
Collection will be a valuable national resource to libraries,
museums, archives, organizations and studies programs
interested in the histories and cultures of the AAPI
communities. Since the AAPI Collection is in its infancy, there
are concerns about its future growth. The Library of Congress
is directed to provide to the Committees on Appropriations of
the House and Senate, no later than April 30, 2009, a detailed
strategy for the development of the AAPI Collection, including
expected timelines and funding proposals.
Child Care Center.--There is interest in ensuring access
for low-income families to the Library's child care center. The
Library of Congress is requested to work with the Library of
Congress Child Care Association to review whether revenues and
costs are aligned to provide for the lowest possible tuition
operationally feasible. This review and a report should be
provided to the Committees on Appropriations of the House and
Senate by May 31, 2009.
Franklin Collection.--There continues to be support for the
goal of bringing the Library's extensive 3,000 text collection
of American books that were translated into Arabic, Persian,
Pashtu, and Indonesian online in a digital format. To further
the availability and use of this collection, the Library of
Congress, Library Services is directed to devote the required
resources to obtain copyright permission and bring this
collection online in a digital format.
American Folklife Center.--The work of the American
Folklife Center (AFC) of the Library of Congress is to preserve
and present the cultural legacy of the nation. Central to this
mission is its role in safekeeping major collections such as
the Alan Lomax Collection. No less precious are other private
collections recently acquired by the AFC that, taking up where
Lomax left off, document America's folk, tribal and ethnic
musical traditions from the 1960s forward to the present. A
half century from now, such collections will be considered as
important, and be as cherished by a new generation of
Americans, as the Lomax recordings are today. The AFC is
currently working to complete the preservation and digital
conversion of these newer collections, which are essential to
providing the nation with a complete and unbroken record of
America's cultural and musical heritage. These efforts will
provide American citizens with access to major cornerstones of
twentieth century American folk music documentation that
collectively define the essence of America's cultural legacy to
the world. Once the digital conversions are completed, the AFC
will showcase these new collections and their accessibility to
the nation through a series of activities including scholarly
symposium focused on the new collections and on the history and
legacy of the folk arts organizations that created them;
musical performances by great folk artists documented in the
collections; the creation of a traveling exhibit; and audio/
video website enhancements to showcase portions of the new
collections and publicize their arrival at the AFC. It is
anticipated that the cost of this effort will be $350,000.
Copyright Office
SALARIES AND EXPENSES
The bill includes $18,277,000, and an additional
$33,315,000 made available from receipts, for salaries and
expenses of the Copyright Office. This amount is $12,956,000
above the current level and is the same as the budget request.
Pre-1972 Sound Recordings.--The Register of Copyrights is
directed to conduct a study on the desirability of and means
for bringing sound recordings fixed before February 15, 1972,
under federal jurisdiction. The study is to cover the effect of
federal coverage on the preservation of such sound recordings,
the effect on public access to those recordings, and the
economic impact of federal coverage on rights holders. The
study is also to examine the means for accomplishing such
coverage. As part of this effort, the Register of Copyrights
should publish notice of the study and provide a period during
which interested persons may submit comments. The Register of
Copyrights is to submit a report on the results of this study
to the Committees on Appropriations of the House and Senate no
later than two years after the enactment of this Act. The
report should include any recommendations that the Register
considers appropriate.
Congressional Research Service
SALARIES AND EXPENSES
The bill includes $107,323,000 for salaries and expenses of
the Congressional Research Service within the Library of
Congress. This is $4,979,000 above the current level and is the
same as the budget request.
Public Access to Legislative Data.--There is support for
enhancing public access to legislative documents, bill status,
summary information, and other legislative data through more
direct methods such as bulk data downloads and other means of
no-charge digital access to legislative databases. The Library
of Congress, Congressional Research Service, and Government
Printing Office and the appropriate entities of the House of
Representatives are directed to prepare a report on the
feasibility of providing advanced search capabilities. This
report is to be provided to the Committees on Appropriations of
the House and Senate within 120 days of the release of
Legislative Information System 2.0.
Books for the Blind and Physically Handicapped
SALARIES AND EXPENSES
The bill includes $68,816,000 for the salaries and expenses
of the National Library Service for the Blind and Physically
Handicapped. This amount is $1,893,000 above the current level
and is the same as the budget request. It is noted that the
contract award for Digital Talking Books came back at a
significantly lower cost than anticipated while still allowing
the project to move forward on its expected timeline and
providing more players and titles than originally planned.
Administrative Provisions
Section 1201 provides for expenses related to official
representation for the incentive awards program. Section 1202
provides obligation authority for various Library programs.
Section 1203 provides authority to transfer funds between
Library accounts. Section 1204 provides authority for members
of the Abraham Lincoln Bicentennial Commission to serve through
the life of the Commission.
GOVERNMENT PRINTING OFFICE
Congressional Printing and Binding
(INCLUDING TRANSFER OF FUNDS)
The bill includes $96,828,000 for printing and binding of
congressional documents at the Government Printing Office. This
amount is $7,053,000 above the current level and is $1,100,000
below the budget request. It will provide the funding required
to pay the FY 2007 and FY 2008 shortfall as well as fund the FY
2009 revised estimate for congressional printing.
Office of Superintendent of Documents
SALARIES AND EXPENSES
(INCLUDING TRANSFER OF FUNDS)
The bill includes $38,744,000 for the salaries and expenses
of the Superintendent of Documents. This amount is $3,831,000
above the current level and is $4,682,000 below the budget
request.
Government Printing Office Revolving Fund
The bill provides $4,995,000 for the Government Printing
Office Revolving Fund. This is $4,995,000 above the current
level and is $28,005,000 below the budget request.
GOVERNMENT ACCOUNTABILITY OFFICE
SALARIES AND EXPENSES
The bill includes $531,000,000 in direct appropriations for
the Government Accountability Office (GAO), plus $7,635,000 in
offsetting collections derived from reimbursements for
conducting financial audits of government corporations and
rental of space in the GAO building. This amount is $31,252,000
above the current level and is $7,152,000 below the budget
request.
Technology Assessment Studies.--Funding continues to be
provided for GAO to conduct technology assessment studies that
provide early indications of the probable beneficial and
adverse impacts of the application of technology and develop
other related information that may assist the Congress during
deliberations on pending legislation. GAO is reminded that for
the assessments to be of benefit to the Congress, GAO must
reach out and work with both bodies of Congress regarding these
studies.
Comptroller General Annuity.--The lifetime salary annuity
provided to the Comptroller General after completion of a 15-
year term is extravagant, particularly in the current economic
climate. GAO is directed to contract with the National Academy
of Public Administration for the latter to conduct an
independent review of the structure and compensation of the
position and determine whether the existing lifetime salary
annuity is necessary to preserve the Comptroller General's
independence. The review should include a comparison of the
Comptroller General annuity to the retirement benefits offered
for other federal positions of a similar character where
independence is a key concern, and explain whether the
Comptroller General's position truly requires a full-salary
annuity benefit to preserve independence if other positions of
a similar character do not. The results of this review are to
be provided to the Committees on Appropriations no later than
July 31, 2009.
Administrative Provisions
Section 1301 repeals a number of outmoded Congressional
mandates for GAO audits.
OPEN WORLD LEADERSHIP CENTER TRUST FUND
The bill includes $13,900,000 for payment to the Open World
Leadership Center Trust Fund. This is $4,922,000 above the
current level and is the same as the budget request.
Open World Funding.--A large portion of the Open World
program is devoted to judicial issues, issues of interest to
the State Department, and issues related to the legislative
process. The strain on Legislative Branch resources from
continuing to fund this program is difficult to sustain. Since
significant emphasis is being placed on judicial issues and on
issues of interest to the State Department, a shared funding
for this program would be appropriate. Therefore, the Open
World Leadership Center Board of Trustees is directed to work
with the Department of State and the Judiciary to assess the
feasibility of shared funding for this program. The Board of
Trustees is expected to pursue this avenue of potential shared
funding and report back to the Committees on Appropriations of
the House and Senate no later than May 30, 2009.
JOHN C. STENNIS CENTER FOR PUBLIC SERVICE TRAINING AND DEVELOPMENT
The bill includes $430,000 for the John C. Stennis Center
for Public Service Training and Development. This amount is
$1,000 more than the current level and is the same as the
budget request.
TITLE II--GENERAL PROVISIONS
The bill includes nine general provisions carried in prior
fiscal years. Section 210 prohibits Inspectors General of the
Library of Congress and the Architect of the Capitol from using
appropriated funds to purchase, maintain, or carry firearms.
DISCLOSURE OF EARMARKS AND CONGRESSIONALLY DIRECTED SPENDING ITEMS
Following is a list of congressional earmarks and
congressionally directed spending items (as defined in clause 9
of rule XXI of the Rules of the House of Representatives and
rule XLIV of the Standing Rules of the Senate, respectively)
included in the bill or this explanatory statement, along with
the name of each Senator, House Member, Delegate, or Resident
Commissioner who submitted a request to the Committee of
jurisdiction for each item so identified. Neither the bill nor
the explanatory statement contains any limited tax benefits or
limited tariff benefits as defined in the applicable House and
Senate rules.

the United States to oppose any assistance by such institutions
(including but not limited to any loan, credit, grant, or

Committees on Appropriations describing, for each international
financial institution, the amount and type of assistance
provided, by country, for the extraction and export of oil,

the heading ``Economic Support Fund'', not less than $4,000,000

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
DIVISION H
DEPARTMENT OF STATE, FOREIGN OPERATIONS, AND RELATED PROGRAMS
APPROPRIATIONS ACT, 2009
TITLE I
DEPARTMENT OF STATE AND RELATED AGENCY
DEPARTMENT OF STATE
Administration of Foreign Affairs
DIPLOMATIC AND CONSULAR PROGRAMS
(INCLUDING TRANSFER OF FUNDS)
The bill provides $5,360,318,000 for Diplomatic and
Consular Programs, which is $819,231,000 above the fiscal year
2008 level, excluding emergency appropriations, and $3,951,000
below the request. Of these funds, $4,243,318,000 is for
ongoing operations, including public diplomacy activities, and
$1,117,000,000 is for Worldwide Security Protection. The bill
separates the functions funded under this heading to provide
more transparency. The Department of State may reprogram funds
as required, subject to consultation with, and notification of,
the Committees on Appropriations. The functions are allocated
as follows:
Human resources.--$2,118,598,000 for all American salaries
at overseas and domestic United States diplomatic missions.
Overseas programs.--$1,548,617,000 for the operational
programs of regional bureaus of the Department of State, which
are responsible for managing United States foreign policy
through bilateral and multilateral relationships. Funds made
available for fiscal year 2009 will support 267 United States
embassies, consulates, and other diplomatic posts worldwide.
Diplomatic policy and support.--$585,078,000 for the
operational programs of the functional bureaus of the
Department of State to provide overall policy direction,
coordination and program management among United States
missions abroad.
Security programs.--$1,108,025,000 for the operation of
security programs, including for Worldwide Security Protection
(WSP) and the Bureau of Diplomatic Security, to protect
diplomatic personnel, overseas diplomatic missions, residences,
domestic facilities and information. In addition to WSP
programs, $134,927,000 is included within the Human Resources
function, equal to the request, for salaries to make up the
total amount in the bill for security protection worldwide.
In addition, the bill includes authority to collect
$8,110,150 from certain authorized fees and payments. The
Department of State also projects that $2,124,458,000 will
become available in fiscal year 2009 from authorized fee
revenues for the Border Security Program of the Department of
State, including an increase of $64,396,000 to continue to
improve passport processing operations.
The bill includes authority for the Secretary of State to
transfer up to $10,000,000 of the funds available under this
heading to funds available under the ``Emergencies in the
Diplomatic and Consular Service'' heading for emergency
evacuations and rewards payments, as authorized.
Enhancing Diplomatic Staffing and Readiness
Increasing the Department of State personnel capacity and
capabilities is a priority in this bill. Diplomatic staffing
increases resulting from the Diplomatic Readiness Initiative
undertaken by the Department of State and the Committees on
Appropriations between fiscal years 2002 through 2004 were
depleted due to the Department's decision to move more
positions to Iraq and Afghanistan. This has led to vacancies at
many posts overseas and has inhibited necessary training of
diplomatic personnel in critical languages. The bill provides
funding to fill vacant positions, expand critical language
training and place more diplomats in countries where there is a
growing United States strategic interest. Within the funds made
available in this Act, and in Public Law 110-252, the Secretary
of State should have sufficient resources to hire the 500
positions proposed in the fiscal year 2009 request. In this
process, the Secretary is urged to further reduce domestic
positions to bolster areas critical to United States interests
around the world, such as public diplomacy and consular
services.
There has been a longstanding concern with the disparity in
pay between rank and file Foreign Service Officers (FSOs) and
senior FSOs, whose pay is tied to the locality paid in the
District of Columbia. This disparity has damaged morale, caused
attrition in the Foreign Service and made it difficult to
attract new hires. The bill provides $41,000,000, as requested,
to eliminate this disparity by paying eligible members of the
Foreign Service up to the amount of the locality-based
comparability payment that would be payable as if their
official duty station were in the District of Columbia. The
relevant authorizing committees are urged to pass legislation
expeditiously authorizing the use of these funds.
Worldwide Security Protection
The bill provides $1,117,000,000 for Worldwide Security
Protection.
Security training.--The fiscal year 2009 budget request
included $17,551,000 to develop a consolidated training center
for the Bureau of Diplomatic Security to provide expanded hard
and soft skills security training to foreign affairs community
members serving in increasingly dangerous environments
overseas. The Secretary of State shall consult with the
Committees on Appropriations in advance of funds being made
available for this purpose and shall provide the Committees
with regular updates on the status of the project.
Visa and passport security plan.--The Department of State's
ongoing work to both detect and disrupt terrorist travel
continues to be supported in this bill and funds are included
to support additional investigative agents and support staff
personnel to enhance visa and passport security.
Funding Directives
Cultural heritage.--The Department of State is directed to
provide $6,500,000 to preserve cultural heritage through
Department of State programs and activities, of which
$5,500,000 shall be for the Ambassador's Fund for Cultural
Preservation including for at least two large projects of
approximately $500,000 each, and $1,000,000 shall be for the
Cultural Antiquities Task Force. The Department of State should
consult with the Committees on Appropriations prior to the
obligation of funds.
Human rights monitoring.--The Secretary of State is
directed to increase the number of human rights officers
assigned to Beijing, People's Republic of China, and submit a
report to the Committees on Appropriations not later than 90
days after enactment of this Act on these efforts.
Intelligence and research.--The bill includes sufficient
funding to support the fiscal year 2009 request for the Bureau
of Intelligence and Research. In addition, section 7034(l)
makes available $5,000,000, from funds appropriated under the
``Economic Support Fund'' heading to continue the Program for
Research and Training on Eastern Europe and the Independent
States of the Former Soviet Union (title VIII).
Iraq diplomatic operations.--The Department of State is
strongly urged to regularize the planning and budgeting for
diplomatic operations in Iraq, to include rightsizing of
personnel, and the fiscal year 2010 budget request should
include funding for ongoing functions.
IT security and coordination.--The Department of State is
directed to provide sufficient funds for IT security programs,
and, through a consultative process, to improve coordination of
IT and cybersecurity programs with other United States
Government agencies, particularly the United States Agency for
International Development (USAID) and the Department of
Defense.
Monitoring of military training and equipment.--While
considerable effort is made by the Department of State to vet
candidates for United States military training, effectiveness
varies significantly among embassies and there have been gaps
and weaknesses. In addition, little is done to track the uses
of equipment, including weapons and ammunition, which is
provided to foreign forces. The bill provides $2,000,000 above
the request to the Bureau of Democracy, Human Rights, and Labor
for these purposes, which continues an initiative begun in
fiscal year 2008. These funds are subject to prior consultation
with the Committees on Appropriations.
Public diplomacy.--The bill includes a total of
$394,806,000 for public diplomacy, including $264,169,000 for
programs and $130,637,000 for salaries under this heading, and
an additional $11,000,000 is available in fee revenue generated
by the Border Security Program, equal to the request.
Soft targets.--The Department of State shall provide
$25,500,000 for security enhancements to soft targets such as
overseas schools and residential compounds. Additional funds
should be used in countries and regions impacted by political
instability.
Special representative and policy coordinator for Burma.--
The Department of State shall provide necessary administrative
expenses, including salary and travel, for the Policy
Coordinator for Burma, as authorized by section 7 of the Tom
Lantos Block Burmese JADE (Junta's Anti-Democratic Efforts) Act
of 2008 (Public Law 110-286).
Tibet.--The Secretary of State should ensure that the
Department of State, the USAID, and the Broadcasting Board of
Governors (BBG) allocate funds provided in this bill for
Tibetan programs in a manner that reflects the commitment of
the United States Government to the Tibetan people in the areas
of democracy promotion, refugee assistance, scholarships,
exchange programs, and radio broadcasts in Tibet.
The Department of State shall provide up to $1,000,000 to
establish a Tibet Section within the United States Embassy in
Beijing, People's Republic of China for the purposes of
following political, economic, and social developments inside
Tibet, including Tibetan areas of Qinghai, Sichuan, Gansu, and
Yunnan provinces, until such time as a United States Consulate
in Tibet is established. This section shall have the primary
responsibility for reporting on human rights issues in Tibet,
shall work in close cooperation with the Office of the Special
Coordinator for Tibetan Issues, and the Tibet Section Chief
should be of senior rank. In addition, $1,000,000 is
recommended to support the Special Coordinator for Tibetan
Issues.
Trafficking in persons.--Sufficient funding is provided to
increase the number of personnel in the Office to Monitor and
Combat Trafficking in Persons to respond to the growing
worldwide problem of human trafficking.
Other Issues and Directives
Adoption task force.--The Governments of Vietnam and
Guatemala have recently restricted adoptions of orphans by
families in the United States until new regulations can be
developed, and thousands of adoptions already in process are
being required to undergo further investigation or have been
halted altogether. The Department of State and the Department
of Homeland Security are directed to establish a temporary task
force similar to the one employed in Cambodia in 2001 to
accommodate the increased workload and assist in the resolution
of outstanding issues. The Secretary of State shall report to
the Committees on Appropriations not later than June 1, 2009,
on actions taken and overall progress in negotiating new
bilateral agreements.
Consular affairs reform.--The bill includes a provision,
section 7006, requiring that all Inspector General
recommendations regarding the Department of State's Passport
Information Electronic Records System are implemented. In
addition, the Department of State should examine best practices
to maintain a high standard of personal privacy for all
information shared with other agencies.
Consular services demonstration.--The Department of State
should report on the implementation of a demonstration program
to expand access to consular services through the use of
alternative interview techniques such as videoconferencing or
mobile consular units as authorized by section 565 of Public
Law 110-161.
Disability coordinator.--In order to ensure the integration
of people with disabilities in policies, programs, activities,
outreach and staff opportunities, the Department of State
should establish a dedicated, full-time Disability Coordinator
and consult with the Committees on Appropriations not later
than 90 days after enactment of this Act on efforts to address
this issue.
Foreign Service Institute.--The Director of the Foreign
Service Institute is urged to develop a program that educates
United States diplomats and foreign service officers on the
major world religions and provides training in techniques of
interfaith dialogue and conflict resolution.
Interagency task force.--The bill includes funds to
continue the operation of a United States Government
Interagency task force to continue the monitoring of the United
Nations headquarters renovation project.
Management.--With the consolidation of oversight for
Department of State operations and foreign assistance programs
under the jurisdiction of one appropriations subcommittee, the
lack of coordination within the Department between budget,
policy and planning related to assistance programs and
operations has come into focus. As additional resources are
requested to expand diplomatic staff and training, the
Department of State should seek to more effectively synchronize
operational and foreign assistance funding and programs.
The Department of State's top priority must be to meet the
personnel requirements of its traditional diplomacy functions.
The Administration is encouraged to improve existing
frameworks, procedures and regulations, including those at the
National Security Council, which will bolster the Department of
State and USAID's responsibility and oversight of United States
diplomacy and foreign assistance.
Minority recruitment.--The bill includes funds requested to
continue the educational partnerships focused on recruiting and
preparing students from various institutions with large
minority populations for positions in the Foreign Service.
These programs assist the ongoing efforts to increase minority
hiring and diversity by facilitating the preparation of non-
traditional and minority students for careers in the Foreign
Service and the Department of State.
Office of Defense Trade Controls Licensing.--The Secretary
of State should ensure that the Office of Defense Trade
Controls Licensing has the necessary budgetary resources and
staff to fulfill its responsibilities in a timely and effective
manner.
Saudi Arabia.--The Secretary of State is directed to
monitor the implementation of the Government of Saudi Arabia's
policies relating to religious practice and tolerance,
announced in July 2006, and make these issues a regular part of
the United States-Saudi Arabia Strategic Dialogue. The
Secretary of State is further directed to provide a report to
the Committees on Appropriations not later than 120 days after
enactment of this Act on the progress and issues raised through
this dialogue.
Science programs.--The Department of State is encouraged to
sustain support for the variety of science fellowship programs
and to increase the science and technology capacity within the
Department of State.
Western Hemisphere Travel Initiative (WHTI).--The Secretary
of State is directed to continue to monitor implementation of
the WHTI according to the statutory deadline of no earlier than
June 1, 2009, and, as needed, to increase temporary staffing to
quickly respond to increases in demand for passports or
passport cards. The Department of Homeland Security and the
Department of State are directed to provide quarterly briefings
to the Committees on Appropriations on progress being made in
meeting these requirements.
CIVILIAN STABILIZATION INITIATIVE
The bill provides $45,000,000 under this heading for the
Civilian Stabilization Initiative (CSI). In addition,
$30,000,000 is provided under title II, for a total of
$75,000,000 in this bill to stand-up, equip and deploy a
coordinated civilian response capacity at the Department of
State and USAID. These funds are in addition to $65,000,000
provided in Public Law 110-252.
Funds made available for CSI in fiscal year 2009 are to be
allocated only for the active and standby response corps and to
support the operations of the Office of the Coordinator for
Reconstruction and Stabilization. In total, $140,000,000 is
available for this initiative in fiscal year 2009, which is
$108,631,000 below the request.
Within the funds made available for CSI in fiscal year
2009, including supplemental funds, up to $23,014,000 may
support the administrative expenses for the Office of the
Coordinator for Reconstruction and Stabilization.
The bill includes a proviso requiring the Secretary of
State and the USAID Administrator to submit a coordinated joint
spending plan and integrated implementation strategy for funds
made available in fiscal years 2008 and 2009 for the CSI not
later than 60 days after enactment of this Act.
The President may exercise existing transfer authority
provided in the Foreign Assistance Act of 1961 and this Act
only to support an actively deployed civilian response corps
and not for the regular operations of this initiative, after
consulting with and notifying the Committees on Appropriations.
The President should be judicious in the use of this authority.
The Department of State, in consultation with USAID, is
directed to submit in writing to the Committees on
Appropriations not later than 180 days after enactment of this
Act, a clarification of the relationship between the CSI and:
(1) existing international disaster response capabilities of
the United States Government and funding sources (including
under the ``International Disaster Assistance'' and
``Transition Initiatives'' headings), and (2) the Department of
Defense disaster response capabilities, assets and authorities.
CAPITAL INVESTMENT FUND
The bill provides $71,000,000 for the Capital Investment
Fund, which is $11,425,000 above the fiscal year 2008 level and
the same as the request.
OFFICE OF INSPECTOR GENERAL
The bill provides $37,000,000 for the Office of Inspector
General, which is $3,267,000 above the fiscal year 2008 level,
excluding emergency appropriations, and $1,492,000 above the
request. The bill includes a proviso, carried in prior years,
that waives the statutory requirement that every post be
inspected every five years, in order to provide flexibility to
the Inspector General to direct the funds provided to the areas
of highest need.
EDUCATIONAL AND CULTURAL EXCHANGE PROGRAMS
The bill provides $538,000,000 for Educational and Cultural
Exchange Programs, which is $36,653,000 above the fiscal year
2008 level, excluding emergency appropriations, and $15,556,000
above the request. Funds are allocated in the following table,
subject to the requirements of section 7019 of this Act:

English Language Programs, and Educational Advising and Student
Services to expand opportunities for United States students to
study abroad. Additional resources should be used to increase
direct grants to students, replicate existing capacity in
targeted regions at quality overseas educational institutions,
especially in developing countries, and engage United States
educational institutions to reduce barriers to study abroad.
Taking into account current programs that support these
goals and proposed legislation, the Department of State should
develop a coordinated strategy to expand exchange programs to
reach a greater number of Americans and foreigners from non-
traditional backgrounds, particularly low income and minority
populations. This strategy should inform the Administration's
planning and budgeting in the near and long-term to expand
exchanges and to better focus on interrelated advantages of
existing programs which will ultimately benefit United States
public diplomacy goals.
The Department of State should continue support for several
ongoing international exchange programs with Eurasia and
Eastern Europe, and the Muskie Graduate Fellowship program. In
addition, the Department of State is expected to continue
funding for the Future Leaders Exchange programs; the American-
Serbia and Montenegro Youth Leadership Exchange; the Junior
Faculty Development Program; the Language, Technology, Math and
Science Exchange; citizen exchange activities of Sister Cities
International; cultural exchange programs in music and the
arts; and increased exchanges with Africa and countries with
significant Muslim populations.
Latin America, Central America, and the Caribbean.--
Expanded exchange programs in the Western Hemisphere are
supported, with an emphasis on indigenous and other minority
populations, including an additional $3,000,000 to continue
exchange programs in Central America, to be allocated as
follows: $1,250,000 for English Access Microscholarships,
$1,250,000 to continue the Community College Program, $250,000
for undergraduate Opportunity Grants, and $250,000 for summer
institutes at United States universities.
The Department of State is directed to continue the
development of expanded cultural, educational, and professional
exchanges with the Caribbean.
Women and exchanges.--The Department of State is urged to
fund professional exchanges for women in areas relating to
business development, trade, leadership, and private and public
sector management to enhance the economic development of
participants and their countries.
Youth Exchange and Study Program.--The bill provides
$23,000,000 to support the goals of this program and encourages
its growth in countries with significant Muslim populations,
where the perception of the United States faces the greatest
challenges. In commemoration of the fifth anniversary of the
program and in recognition of the impact of the program in
promoting dialogue, increasing understanding and enhancing
cultural diplomacy between the United States and foreign
countries, it is recommended that the program be named in honor
of its originators, subject to prior consultation with the
Committees on Appropriations.
One-time International Exchange Grant Program.--The bill
provides $6,000,000 for one-time competitive grants for
international exchanges. Grants shall address issues of mutual
interest to the United States and other countries, consistent
with the program criteria established in Public Law 110-161.
Programs shall support the actual exchange of people and should
benefit a population that is not being addressed through
existing authorized exchanges. The Department of State shall
submit a report of those organizations that are eligible for a
grant and, not later than September 1, 2009, submit a report to
the Committees on Appropriations describing the grant
recipients and intended use of funds.
Programs which received funding under this one-time grant
program in fiscal year 2008, or which were listed in the
explanatory statement but did not apply, are not listed for
consideration in fiscal year 2009. Programs listed in the
fiscal year 2008 explanatory statement that applied, but did
not receive funding, also are not listed but should be
considered eligible for the fiscal year 2009 program. The
Department of State is encouraged to consider new proposals for
one-time funding from previously funded grantees within
discretionary funding if they meet appropriate guidelines.
Exchange programs eligible for consideration for this
competitive program shall include:
Concordia College, for intensive critical language and
cultural immersion exchange programs.
Castleton State College, for international service-learning
exchange programs.
KIDmocracy, for student exchange with Egypt on democracy
and governance.
Hofstra University, for critical language exchange
programs.
Korean American Empowerment Council, for exchanges with the
Republic of Korea.

and Liberian officials.

bringing young leaders from developing countries to the Gila
Wilderness for land management training.

The bill provides $8,175,000 for Representation Allowances,
which is $66,000 above the fiscal year 2008 level and the same
as the request.
PROTECTION OF FOREIGN MISSIONS AND OFFICIALS
The bill provides $22,814,000 for Protection of Foreign
Missions and Officials, the same as the fiscal year 2008 level
and $4,814,000 above the request. The bill includes sufficient
funds above the request to begin to reimburse eligible costs of
providing security protection of diplomatic delegations to the
United Nations and other international organizations that were
incurred in prior years, and up to $2,400,000 is available to
reimburse certifiable costs incurred by municipalities hosting
extraordinary events.
The Department of State is directed to prepare and submit a
report not later than 60 days after enactment of this Act and
every six months thereafter on the amount of claims for
extraordinary protective services that have been submitted by
eligible jurisdictions and certified as meeting the program
requirements and the amount of unobligated funds available to
pay such claims.
EMBASSY SECURITY, CONSTRUCTION, AND MAINTENANCE
The bill provides $1,706,569,000 for Embassy Security,
Construction, and Maintenance, which is $205,994,000 above the
comparable level for fiscal year 2008, excluding emergency
appropriations, and $218,390,000 below the comparable request.
Of the amount provided, $801,344,000 is for operations,
maintenance and construction, $770,000,000 is for priority
worldwide security upgrades, acquisition, and construction, and
$135,225,000 is for the overseas facilities construction
program of USAID. The comparable level for fiscal year 2008
includes $75,000,000 appropriated under the ``Capital
Investment Fund of the United States Agency for International
Development'' heading.
The bill provides funding for USAID's overseas facility
construction program under this heading, rather than under
USAID's ``Capital Investment Fund'' heading, as requested and
as provided in fiscal year 2009. The Department of State and
USAID are directed to work in concert to manage overseas
facilities to more effectively and efficiently meet United
States foreign affairs objectives. Coordination should include
worldwide facilities assessments, planning, requests for
funding, and implementation of facilities construction and
maintenance activities.
The Secretary of State is directed to submit an annual plan
on the joint requirements of the Department of State and USAID,
including planned facilities upgrades and new construction for
each fiscal year. The Secretary of State also is directed to
report to the Committees on Appropriations, not later than 90
days after enactment of this Act, on a plan to address
maintenance costs.
The Under Secretary for Management shall consult with the
Committees on Appropriations on a regular and ongoing basis on
the design of any proposed self-financed New Embassy Compound.
Section 7034(i) provides that $2,000,000 from funds
available under this heading shall be for the Capital Security
Cost-Sharing contribution of the Library of Congress. The
Government Accountability Office (GAO) is requested to examine
the utility of overseas facilities for the Library of Congress
and report to the Committees on Appropriations not later than
August 1, 2009, including recommendations on the space needed
and what efficiencies can be made while maintaining the
Library's resource acquisition mission.
EMERGENCIES IN THE DIPLOMATIC AND CONSULAR SERVICE
(INCLUDING TRANSFER OF FUNDS)
The bill provides $9,000,000 for Emergencies in the
Diplomatic and Consular Service, which is $73,000 above the
fiscal year 2008 level and $10,000,000 below the request.
The bill provides the funds under the heading for emergency
evacuations and for authorized rewards payments.
BUYING POWER MAINTENANCE ACCOUNT
The bill provides $5,000,000 for the Buying Power
Maintenance Account to manage exchange rate losses in the cost
of Department of State operations overseas. The amount provided
is $5,000,000 above both the fiscal year 2008 level, excluding
supplemental appropriations, and the request. The Secretary of
State is urged to include a request for funding in this account
in future budget requests.
REPATRIATION LOANS PROGRAM ACCOUNT
(INCLUDING TRANSFER OF FUNDS)
The bill provides $1,353,000 for the Repatriation Loans
Program Account, which is $78,000 above the fiscal year 2008

expenses.

for administrative expenses to be transferred to, and merged
with, ``Diplomatic and Consular Programs''.
PAYMENT TO THE AMERICAN INSTITUTE IN TAIWAN
The bill provides $16,840,000 for Payment to the American

2008 level and the same as the request.
PAYMENT TO THE FOREIGN SERVICE RETIREMENT AND DISABILITY FUND
The bill provides $157,100,000 for Payment to the Foreign
Service Retirement and Disability Fund, which is $1,800,000
below the fiscal year 2008 level and the same as the comparable
request.
International Organizations
CONTRIBUTIONS TO INTERNATIONAL ORGANIZATIONS
The bill provides $1,529,400,000 for Contributions to
International Organizations, which is $185,971,000 above the
fiscal year 2008 level and the same as the request. This is in
addition to $75,000,000 provided in Public Law 110-252.
The Office of Management and Budget is directed to request
sufficient funds to pay annual assessed dues and any
accumulated arrears to international organizations, and the
Department of State is encouraged to evaluate the benefit of
United States membership on an annual basis.
The decision to incorporate the United Nations (UN)
Procurement Task Force (PTF) into the Office of Internal
Oversight Services (OIOS) must not result in a diminished
commitment by the UN to continue effective fraud and corruption
investigations. Over the past three years, the PTF has been
effective by identifying more than 20 significant fraud and
corruption schemes in cases with an aggregate contract value in
excess of $630,000,000. The results of the PTF (and the Oil for
Food investigations and prosecutions) underscore the need for
the UN to be vigilant in protecting the integrity of donor
funds. Eighty-five percent of UN procurement supports
peacekeeping operations, and according to GAO, peacekeeping
field procurement has not been effectively reformed and remains
a high-risk area for fraud and abuse.
The UN should affirm its commitment to a strong oversight
body, which is independent and resistant to retaliation by UN
employees and their respective governments. The Department of
State is directed to make procurement reform a top priority at
the UN and to ensure that sufficient resources are made
available for vigorous procurement oversight and investigation
capabilities.
The Department of State is directed to report to the
Committees on Appropriations not later than 120 days after
enactment of this Act on the voting practices of UN member
states for the current and past three years on matters
regarding Iran, Israel, Sudan, and Zimbabwe, as well as on the
reform efforts of the UN.
CONTRIBUTIONS FOR INTERNATIONAL PEACEKEEPING ACTIVITIES
The bill provides $1,517,000,000 for Contributions for
International Peacekeeping Activities, which is $294,483,000
above the fiscal year 2008 level, excluding emergency
appropriations, and $20,000,000 above the request. This amount
is in addition to $150,500,000 provided in Public Law 110-252.
The bill includes language (section 7051), as requested by the
President, to adjust the authorized level of United States
assessments for peacekeeping activities for calendar year 2009
and prior years from 25 percent to 27.1 percent, consistent
with the level set in fiscal year 2008 (Public Law 110-161).
The Department of State is directed to provide full funding
for the United States assessed contribution to the UN/African
Union Hybrid operation in Darfur (UNAMID). The Department shall
work with members of the Security Council and countries
contributing troops, police, personnel, and equipment to
UNAMID, in addition to interested non-governmental
organizations, to ensure full and swift deployment. The
Department of State should also ensure that UNAMID personnel
receive training on prevention of, and response to, violence
against women.
The Department of State is directed to support oversight of
peacekeeping missions by the UN's OIOS to identify waste, fraud
and abuse, including sexual abuse within every UN peacekeeping
mission, and submit to the Committees on Appropriations a
performance report on the progress of these efforts.
International Commissions
The bill provides funding to fully meet United States
treaty obligations to international commissions in fiscal year
2009 and recognizes that funds are requested under the
Department of State as a result of international treaties.
However, the Secretary of State is encouraged to examine
efficiencies in operations and equipment that could be achieved
with other United States Government agencies.
INTERNATIONAL BOUNDARY AND WATER COMMISSION, UNITED STATES AND MEXICO

account of the Commission, which is $2,072,000 above the fiscal

\1\ Budget requested funding as a separate account.
The bill includes sufficient funding, including funds
provided in Public Law 110-252, and funds provided in Public
Law 110-329, in fiscal year 2009 to maintain broadcasting in
languages services at the fiscal year 2008 program levels which
the BBG proposed to reduce or eliminate in the fiscal year 2009
request. It is recognized that international broadcasting
conditions and costs are variable and that estimates for
maintaining language services may escalate over the course of a
fiscal year due to exchange rate losses or other circumstances.
The BBG is directed to notify the Committees on Appropriations
of any such modifications to language service levels
recommended in the table above for fiscal year 2009.
Sufficient funds are available in fiscal year 2009 to
continue VOA and RFA Tibetan broadcasts at the fiscal year 2008
surge levels. Section 7071(c)(3) of the bill directs not less
than $8,000,000 for broadcasting into North Korea through RFA
Korea Service and VOA Korea Service.
The BBG is encouraged to continue its ongoing efforts to
improve audience reach by utilizing the most effective means of
transmission. However, going silent in many critical languages
and regions is not supported. In addition, there is concern
with the dismantling of shortwave capacity. The BBG should re-
examine the capabilities of shortwave radio and continue to
deploy it where it is determined to be most effective,
particularly to countries where there is limited or no access
to independent media.
The BBG is encouraged to explore the potential of digital
shortwave technology as a means of delivering high-quality
transmissions at low cost to millions of listeners. The BBG
also is encouraged to consider whether existing English
language broadcast programming can be used by VOA, if
authorized standards are met.
The bill includes a provision, section 7041, intended to
strengthen transparency, integrity and accountability
concerning the content of broadcasts to the Middle East.
Programs supported under this heading are intended to reach
countries where fair and unbiased local media is limited and
therefore broadcasting a variety of views is required. The BBG
should continue to pursue free and fair broadcasting, and in
particular provide many points of view to maintain balanced
reporting. The Board is directed, in conjunction with the MBN,
VOA, and RFE/RL, to make public English transcripts on a case
by case basis if requested by the Committees on Appropriations.
Sufficient funds are included to continue the transparency
directives begun in fiscal year 2008 regarding Alhurra.

comparable fiscal year 2008 level and $35,000,000 above the
request. The additional $15,000,000 in the bill is provided for
a small grants program, democracy promotion, human rights and
rule of law activities including in China, Burma, Cuba, Russia,
Pakistan, Afghanistan, Malaysia, Somalia, Sudan, and Iran, as
well as for the Reagan-Fascell Democracy Fellows Program, the
Center for International Media Assistance and the World
Movement for Democracy. Further, $250,000 is provided for human
rights and democracy programs relating to Tibet.
The President of the NED is required to submit a report to
the Committees on Appropriations not later than 45 days after
enactment of this Act on the proposed uses of these funds on a
regional and country basis. The report should include a
description of programmatic goals for each region and country,
and how the planned use of funds will meet such goals.
This grant to the Department of State is a pass-through
directly to NED. Thus, funds under this heading shall not be
subject to prior approval by the Department of State or USAID
or administrative or management surcharges, and minimal
expenses, if any, should be charged to general Department of
State operating expenses. Further, the NED should not be
precluded from competitively bidding on democracy, human
rights, and rule of law grant solicitations.

Contracting and procurement.--USAID shall make efforts to
ensure that United States small, minority-owned, and
disadvantaged business enterprises are able to fully
participate in USAID contracts for the provision of goods and
services. USAID should consult with the Committees on
Appropriations on specific actions taken and the success of
these efforts on a bi-annual basis.
Partner vetting.--USAID should continue efforts to improve
its vetting system to ensure that funds are not diverted to
international terrorist organizations; however, vetting
procedures must not dissuade legitimate implementing partners
from participating in USAID programs. USAID shall provide the
Committees on Appropriations with regular updates on progress
made in developing such a system and is directed to provide a
report on the efficacy of the partner vetting pilot program in
the West Bank and Gaza not later than 180 days after enactment

Staffing.--As USAID's ability to attract and retain the
highest caliber professionals has been in decline for a decade,
the bill provides funding for implementation of the Development
Leadership Initiative (DLI), as proposed in the fiscal year
2009 budget request. USAID is directed to prioritize the hiring
of employees who have experience and technical expertise in the
areas of greatest demand, including acquisitions and
contracting, and up to 30 mid-level individuals may be hired to
meet staffing needs under the DLI. Efforts should be undertaken
to recruit from groups that are underrepresented in the Foreign
and Civil Service. USAID should conduct a thorough human
resources assessment, including a review of existing
capabilities, a delineation of future needs as identified in
country-program plans, and an assessment of needs related to
near-term and long-term facilities requirements. USAID is
directed to consult with the Committees on Appropriations on
the rebuilding of professional staff.
CIVILIAN STABILIZATION INITIATIVE
Civilian Stabilization Initiative (CSI).--The bill provides
a total of $75,000,000 to continue to stand up a capacity for
the Department of State, USAID, and other relevant civilian
agencies to respond to post-conflict stabilization and
reconstruction challenges, which is $75,000,000 above the
fiscal year 2008 enacted level and $173,631,000 below the
request. This funding is in addition to $55,000,000, which was
provided for such purposes in Public Law 110-252. Within the
amounts provided in this bill, $30,000,000 is included under
this heading and $45,000,000 is included under the ``Civilian
Stabilization Initiative'' heading under title I for this
purpose.

up to $6,000,000 is available for the Office of Surge
Administration. No funding is provided to implement the
civilian reserve corps portion of the initiative.
The bill includes a proviso requiring the Secretary of
State and the USAID Administrator to submit a coordinated joint

(CIF), which is $51,512,000 below the fiscal year 2008 level
and $135,225,000 below the request. USAID shall provide a
spending plan to the Committees on Appropriations not later
than 120 days after enactment of this Act on the allocation of
these funds. Funds are provided under this heading to ensure
that USAID continues to invest in information technology,

construction program costs for fiscal year 2009, which is
intended to improve the transparency of functions previously
funded by the CIF.
OFFICE OF INSPECTOR GENERAL
The bill provides $42,000,000 for the Office of Inspector
General, which is $4,308,000 above the fiscal year 2008 level,

private voluntary organizations to maximize assistance to poor
clients. Of the total, 50 percent of funds should be for grants
to private networks, practitioner institutions, and
nongovernmental organizations, and USAID's Office of
Microenterprise should provide grants through a central funding
mechanism for contracts, cooperative agreements and grants in

economic development.
Education
Basic education.--The bill provides a total of
$700,000,000, of which $400,000,000 is provided under this
heading for basic education. Education should be a key
component of the United States Government's development
strategy in developing countries. Of the amounts provided for
basic education, $240,000,000 should be used to provide
assistance in developing countries that have a national
education plan.
The bill includes language in section 7064 that establishes
a three-country pilot program and USAID should consult with the
Committees on Appropriations on potential countries for such
programs. Each country should develop a five-year
implementation plan that supports the national education plan.
This pilot program should develop best practices that can be
utilized by other missions and should be staffed by qualified
education specialists.

order to preserve the habitat for coral and tropical fish and
consider the work of the Coral Reef Small Grants Program.
Funding for the United States National Park Service for
technical and training programs for protected area management
in Samlaut, Cambodia, in consultation with USAID, should be
considered.
Not less than $4,000,000 is provided for continued support
of the Colombian National Park Service and nongovernmental
organizations working in buffer zones to protect Colombia's
national parks and indigenous reserves.

Conservation Fund.
Global Programs
Child marriage.--USAID is encouraged to consider the
prevalence of child marriage when developing country operating
plans and should increase programmatic focus on this issue.
Democracy.--USAID's work in the area of democracy and
governance is important and funding for these programs should
increase in fiscal year 2009. Democracy programs should be
balanced between states in conflict and those working to
consolidate and continue their democratic transition. USAID
should consider the work of the University of Kentucky School
of Law.
Patrick Leahy War Victims Fund.--USAID is directed to
provide not less than $13,000,000 to support this fund which
assists persons who are severely disabled as a result of armed
conflict.
Reconciliation programs.--The bill provides $25,000,000 to
support programs that bring together and facilitate interaction
between individuals of different ethnic, religious and
political backgrounds from areas of civil conflict and war. Of
this amount, $9,000,000 is available for such activities in the
Middle East. The intent of this program is to maximize the
participation of local civil society organizations and to
involve antagonists directly in people-to-people activities
which promote mutual understanding, trust and problem solving.
USAID should consider the work of LibforAll Foundation, In His
Shoes Ministries, Cooperation Ireland in conjunction with
Syracuse University, Jerusalem International YMCA, the Arava
Institute for Environmental Studies, Empower Peace Foundation,

Colombia.--The bill provides $3,500,000 for assistance for
Colombian refugees in neighboring countries by transfer from
the ESF account.
Iraqi refugees.--The Department of State and USAID should

The Department of State should ensure that the Iraqi
resettlement program remains a priority and that the previous
backlog is addressed.
Migration to Israel.--The bill provides not less than
$30,000,000 for assistance for refugees resettling in Israel.
North Korea.--Assistance should be made available for North

Independent Agencies

(INCLUDING TRANSFERS OF FUNDS)

is $9,201,000 above the fiscal year 2008 level and $3,500,000
below the request.
The Peace Corps' strategy guiding its geographic
distribution of volunteers should be examined in light of
shifting strategic interests, increasing costs of programs, and
limited resources. The Peace Corps did not respond adequately
to the report required in the explanatory statement

Law 110-161). In addition to the annual budget justification,

detailed description of the criteria used to assign volunteers
on a country-by-country basis.

Allocation of funding.--The bill includes $875,000,000 for
the MCC in support of its goals to reduce poverty and promote
sustainable economic growth and democracy through country
compacts. There is concern with the trend of significantly
larger country compacts since the MCC's inception. The average
size of compacts signed in 2005 was $181,000,000. By 2008, the
average had almost tripled to $494,666,667.
Between fiscal years 2004-2008, Congress appropriated
$7,500,000,000 for the MCC for 18 country compacts. Of this
amount, only $353,602,831 had been disbursed by the end of
fiscal year 2008. In an effort to ensure that the MCC does not
become overextended, that existing compacts are meeting their
goals, and future compacts are of a manageable size, the MCC is
urged to limit compact size to not more than $350,000,000 in
fiscal year 2009. There is also a concern that threshold
programs are not meeting their targets, and that a review of
the efficacy of these programs is needed before additional
threshold programs are begun. The MCC shall consult with the
Committees on Appropriations prior to implementing new
threshold programs.
Compact implementation.--Several compacts are scheduled to
be completed in 2010. Due to delays in implementation, several
of them may not complete their programs within the five-year
compact time limit. The MCC shall consult with the Committees
on Appropriations on the status of the compacts on a regular
basis. The MCC shall notify the Committees on Appropriations
immediately if the compact program will not be completed, in
order to allow for consideration by Congress of an extension of
the five-year time limit.
Contracting and procurement.--The MCC is directed to
provide a report to the Committees on Appropriations not later
than 120 days after enactment of this Act on actions taken to
ensure that United States small, minority-owned, and
disadvantaged business enterprises are able to fully
participate in the provision of goods and services that are
financed with funds made available to the MCC.
Indicators.--The MCC Board of Directors is urged to
consider the establishment of an indicator to take into
consideration the votes and positions of countries in
international and multilateral institutions with respect to
internationally recognized human rights, including religious
freedom.
Report.--The MCC is directed to submit a report to the
Committees on Appropriations not later than 180 days after
enactment of this Act describing the MCC's post-compact country
transition plan, including how the investment in each compact
will be utilized, continued and/or maintained by each country
in the future.

EXPORT AND INVESTMENT ASSISTANCE
Export-Import Bank of the United States
INSPECTOR GENERAL
The bill provides $2,500,000 for Inspector General, which
is $1,508,000 above the fiscal year 2008 level and the same as
the request.
SUBSIDY APPROPRIATION
The bill provides $41,000,000 for Subsidy Appropriation,
which is $26,449,000 below the fiscal year 2008 level and the
same as the request.
ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES
The bill provides $81,500,000 for Administrative Expenses,
which is $4,132,000 above the fiscal year 2008 level and the
same as the request.
Renewable energy.--The Export-Import Bank is uniquely
positioned to enable United States environmental exporters to
take advantage of a surge in renewable energy projects in
Canada, Western Europe, and Asia and therefore, of the
aggregate loan, guarantee and insurance authority available to
the Export-Import Bank in this Act not less than 10 percent
should be for renewable energy technologies or energy efficient
end-use technologies. The Export-Import Bank shall submit a
report to the Committees on Appropriations not later than 90
days after enactment of this Act detailing all financing
carried out in fiscal year 2009 for these purposes.
Additionally, adequate staff should be assigned to the Office
of Renewable Energy and Environmental Exports.
In fiscal year 2008, the Export-Import Bank was required to
provide a strategy for increasing exports in renewable energy
and environmentally beneficial products. The quality and scope
of the strategy to increase exports in this area that was
submitted to the Committees on Appropriations was inadequate.
Therefore, GAO is directed to conduct an assessment of the
Export-Import Bank's efforts to realize Congressional
directives regarding the export of renewable energy and
environmentally beneficial products and services, and provide
this report to the Committees on Appropriations not later than
180 days after enactment of this Act. The assessment should
include recommendations to improve the program.
Credit Export Facility for the Palestinian Authority.--The
Export-Import Bank is directed to explore the potential for
establishing a credit export facility for the Palestinian
Authority by consulting with the Palestinian Authority, the
Government of Israel, and others. Such a facility would
ultimately be subject to a peace agreement and would have the
goal of providing a funding facility for the private sector in
the Palestinian Territory to purchase goods and services from
the United States. The Export-Import Bank should report to the
Committees on Appropriations on this proposal not later than
180 days after enactment of this Act.
Overseas Private Investment Corporation
NONCREDIT ACCOUNT
The bill provides $50,600,000 for administrative expenses,
which is $3,485,000 above the fiscal year 2008 level and the
same as the request.
PROGRAM ACCOUNT
The bill provides $29,000,000 for Program Account, which is
$5,690,000 above the fiscal year 2008 level and the same as the
request. The Overseas Private Investment Corporation (OPIC) is
directed to provide written reports on a semi-annual basis, as
in prior years.
Renewable energy.--OPIC should play a role in helping to
increase investment in renewable energy technologies and energy
efficient end-use technologies. Not later than 90 days
following the end of fiscal year 2009, OPIC shall submit a
report to the Committees on Appropriations detailing all
financing, guarantees, and insurance carried out in fiscal year
2009 for these purposes.
Funds Appropriated to the President
TRADE AND DEVELOPMENT AGENCY
The bill provides $50,800,000 for the Trade and Development
Agency (TDA), which is $808,000 above the fiscal year 2008
level and the same as the request.
Liberia.--TDA should consult with the Committees on
Appropriations on the next phase of work related to the Mount
Coffee Hydro Power Station and the construction of a proposed
fiber optic ring around Monrovia.

For an additional amount, $50,000,000 shall be made available
until expended to the Neighborhood Reinvestment Corporation for
mortgage foreclosure mitigation activities, under the following
terms and conditions:
(1) The Neighborhood Reinvestment Corporation
(``NRC''), shall make grants to counseling
intermediaries approved by the Department of Housing
and Urban Development (HUD) (with match to be
determined by the NRC based on affordability and the
economic conditions of an area; a match also may be
waived by the NRC based on the aforementioned
conditions) to provide mortgage foreclosure mitigation
assistance primarily to States and areas with high
rates of defaults and foreclosures primarily in the
subprime housing market to help eliminate the default
and foreclosure of mortgages of owner-occupied single-
family homes that are at risk of such foreclosure.
Other than areas with high rates of defaults and
foreclosures, grants may also be provided to approved
counseling intermediaries based on a geographic
analysis of the Nation by the NRC which determines
where there is a prevalence of subprime mortgages that
are risky and likely to fail, including any trends for
mortgages that are likely to default and face
foreclosure. A State Housing Finance Agency may also be
eligible where the State Housing Finance Agency meets
all the requirements under this paragraph. A HUD-
approved counseling intermediary shall meet certain
mortgage foreclosure mitigation assistance counseling
requirements, as determined by the NRC, and shall be
approved by HUD or the NRC as meeting these
requirements.
(2) Mortgage foreclosure mitigation assistance shall
only be made available to homeowners of owner-occupied
homes with mortgages in default or in danger of
default. These mortgages shall likely be subject to a
foreclosure action and homeowners will be provided such
assistance that shall consist of activities that are
likely to prevent foreclosures and result in the long-
term affordability of the mortgage retained pursuant to
such activity or another positive outcome for the
homeowner. No funds made available under this paragraph
may be provided directly to lenders or homeowners to
discharge outstanding mortgage balances or for any
other direct debt reduction payments.
(3) The use of Mortgage Foreclosure Mitigation
Assistance by approved counseling intermediaries and
State Housing Finance Agencies shall involve a
reasonable analysis of the borrower's financial
situation, an evaluation of the current value of the
property that is subject to the mortgage, counseling
regarding the assumption of the mortgage by another
non-Federal party, counseling regarding the possible
purchase of the mortgage by a non-Federal third party,
counseling and advice of all likely restructuring and
refinancing strategies or the approval of a work-out
strategy by all interested parties.
(4) NRC may provide up to 15 percent of the total
funds under this paragraph to its own charter members
with expertise in foreclosure prevention counseling,
subject to a certification by the NRC that the
procedures for selection do not consist of any
procedures or activities that could be construed as an
unacceptable conflict of interest or have the
appearance of impropriety.
(5) HUD-approved counseling entities and State
Housing Finance Agencies receiving funds under this
paragraph shall have demonstrated experience in
successfully working with financial institutions as
well as borrowers facing default, delinquency and
foreclosure as well as documented counseling capacity,
outreach capacity, past successful performance and
positive outcomes with documented counseling plans
(including post mortgage foreclosure mitigation
counseling), loan workout agreements and loan
modification agreements. NRC may use other criteria to
demonstrate capacity in underserved areas.
(6) Of the total amount made available under this
paragraph, up to $5,000,000 may be made available to
build the mortgage foreclosure and default mitigation
counseling capacity of counseling intermediaries
through NRC training courses with HUD-approved
counseling intermediaries and their partners, except
that private financial institutions that participate in
NRC training shall pay market rates for such training.
(7) Of the total amount made available under this
paragraph, up to 4 percent may be used for associated
administrative expenses for the NRC to carry out
activities provided under this section.
(8) Mortgage foreclosure mitigation assistance grants
may include a budget for outreach and advertising, and
training, as determined by the NRC.
(9) The NRC shall report bi-annually to the House and
Senate Committees on Appropriations as well as the
Senate Banking Committee and House Financial Services
Committee on its efforts to mitigate mortgage default.
Such reports shall identify successful strategies and
methods for preserving homeownership and the long-term
affordability of at-risk mortgages and shall include
recommended efforts that will or likely can assist in
the success of this program as well as an analysis of
any policy and procedures that failed to result in
successful mortgage foreclosure mitigation. The report
shall include an analysis of the details and use of any
post mitigation counseling of assisted borrowers
designed to ensure the continued long-term
affordability of the mortgages which were the subject
of the mortgage foreclosure mitigation assistance.

Controller Staffing and Training.--The bill requires FAA to
transmit an annual update to the controller workforce plan by
March 31, 2009, and reduces the appropriation by $100,000 per
day each day the report is late. The FAA is directed to include
facility-by-facility data as well as a new benchmark for each
facility for evaluating the proportion of certified controllers
to controllers-in-training and developmental controllers. The
agency is also expected to promptly implement strategies from
the 2004 controller workforce plan and directs that the 2009
workforce plan include an update on the agency's progress.
Funding under this heading also includes $15,000,000 for
controller training activities including additional contract
trainers; for expenses needed to retain experienced controllers
and to attract controllers at needed locations; and to
accelerate the hiring pace of new controllers. The FAA is
directed to provide a report to the House and Senate Committees
on Appropriations within 30 days of enactment that describes
the agency's use of the controller training funds.
Contract tower program.--The bill includes $110,000,000 for
the contract tower base program and $9,000,000 for the contract
tower cost-sharing program. In addition, the FAA is permitted
to use unsubscribed funds from the contract tower base line
program to avoid elimination of communities from the cost share
towers program, but only after all base line tower obligations
have been fulfilled.
Technical staffing requirements.--The FAA is directed to
carefully monitor the size and capability of its technical
workforce and to maintain agreed upon staffing levels. The FAA
is directed to provide semi-annual updates to the House and
Senate Committees on Appropriations as to the agency's
technical staffing levels.
RNAV/RNP procedures.--Within the amounts provided for the
air traffic organization, $39,200,000 is included for RNAV/RNP
procedures. FAA is directed to include a dedicated section for

aircraft certification inspectors and related staff.
The Secretary is directed to continue to provide an annual
report on aviation safety employment data which delineates
inspector losses and gains from the beginning of fiscal year
2009 until March 31, 2009. The report is due to the House and
Senate Appropriations Committees by April 10, 2009. In
addition, the FAA is expected to include the fully annualized
cost of the additional inspectors in the fiscal year 2010
budget. If the FAA chooses not to fund these inspectors, the
agency is directed to display changes to the aviation safety
base program and how many inspector positions would be
affected.
Additionally, the FAA is directed to establish a working
group, including safety inspectors, to develop a benchmark to
measure how much time inspectors spend in the field and to
include that benchmark in the next inspector workforce plan.
FAA is directed to provide semi-annual reports to the House and
Senate Appropriations Committees on all overdue safety
attribute inspections and element performance inspections
including a target completion date.
Air transportation oversight system (ATOS).--The Department
of Transportation Office of Inspector General (OIG) is directed
to submit a report to the House and Senate Committees on
Appropriations within six months of enactment which verifies
the ATOS field data that is sent to FAA headquarters; describes
the agency's analysis of that data; and, evaluates the
effectiveness of FAA's use of the data.
Inspector staffing model.--The FAA is directed to notify
the House and Senate Committees on Appropriations if the agency
is 30 days delinquent on any of the milestones related to the
safety inspector staffing model.
Medallion program.--Within the funds provided for aviation
safety, $2,375,000 is included to continue the Medallion
program, a cooperative program to improve rural air safety in
Alaska.
Professional aerial application support system.--The
recommendation includes $47,500 for the National Agricultural
Aviation Research and Education Foundation's Professional
Aerial Application Support System. This program is designed to
assist with agricultural pilot safety, operational security and
the safe and accurate delivery of crop protection products.
Commercial space transportation.--The FAA is directed to
provide semi-annual updates to the House and Senate Committees
on Appropriations on commercial airspace test flight
activities.
Workforce diversity plans for controllers and safety
staff.--The FAA is directed to provide a further update to the
workforce diversity plan required in fiscal year 2008 in order
to measure the progress and specific efforts that the agency
has made to eliminate barriers for underrepresented populations
in the FAA's controller and safety workforce. The submittal
date for the plan is April 1, 2009.
FACILITIES AND EQUIPMENT
(AIRPORT AND AIRWAY TRUST FUND)
The bill includes $2,742,095,000 for FAA facilities and
equipment which is $18,585,000 above the budget request and
