DIVISION C--DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE APPROPRIATION ACT FISCAL YEAR 2009
Following is an explanation of the effects of division C,
which makes appropriations for the Department of Defense for
fiscal year 2009. As provided in section 4 of the
consolidated bill, this explanatory statement shall have the
same effect with respect to the allocation of funds and
implementation of this division as if it were a joint
explanatory statement of a committee of conference.
Definition of Program, Project, and Activity
For the purposes of the Balanced Budget and Emergency
Deficit Control Act of 1985 (Public Law 99-177) as amended by
the Balanced Budget and Emergency Deficit Control
Reaffirmation Act of 1987 (Public Law 100-119) and by the
Budget Enforcement Act of 1990 (Public Law 101-508), the term
program, project, and activity for appropriations contained
in this Act shall be defined as the most specific level of
budget items identified in the Department of Defense
Appropriations Act, 2009, the related classified annexes and
explanatory statements, and the P-1 and R-1 budget
justification documents as subsequently modified by
congressional action. The following exception to the above
definition shall apply: for the military personnel and the
operation and maintenance accounts, for which the term
``program, project, and activity'' is defined as the
appropriations accounts contained in the Department of
Defense Appropriations Act.
At the time the President submits his budget for fiscal
year 2010, the Department of Defense is directed to transmit
to the congressional defense committees budget justification
documents to be known as the ``M-1'' and ``O-1'' which shall
identify, at the budget activity, activity group, and
subactivity group level, the amounts requested by the
President to be appropriated to the Department of Defense for
military personnel and operation and maintenance in any
budget request, or amended budget request, for fiscal year
2010.
Classified Annex
Adjustments to classified programs are addressed in the
accompanying classified annex.
Congressional Special Interest Items
Items for which additional funds have been provided as
shown in the project level tables or in paragraphs using the
phrase ``only for'' or ``only to'' are congressional special
interest items for purposes of the Base for Reprogramming (DD
Form 1414). Each of these items must be carried on the DD
Form 1414 at the stated amount, as specifically addressed in
these materials.
Reprogramming Guidance
The Department of Defense is directed to continue to follow
the reprogramming guidance for acquisition accounts as
specified in the House Report (H. Rept. 110-279) accompanying
the Fiscal Year 2008 Department of Defense Appropriations
Act. For operation and maintenance accounts, the Department
of Defense shall continue to follow the reprogramming
guidelines specified in the conference report accompanying
H.R. 3222, the Department of Defense Appropriations Act,
2008, which are also reiterated herein under title II. The
dollar threshold for reprogramming funds shall remain at
$15,000,000 for operation and maintenance; $20,000,000 for
procurement; and $10,000,000 for research, development, test
and evaluation.
Also, the Under Secretary of Defense, Comptroller, is
directed to continue to provide the congressional defense
committees quarterly, spreadsheet-based DD Form 1416 reports
for service and defense-wide accounts in titles I, II, III
and IV of this Act. The Department shall continue to follow
the limitation that prior approval reprogrammings are set at
either the specified dollar threshold or 20 percent of the
procurement or research, development, test and evaluation
line, whichever is less. These thresholds are cumulative.
Therefore, if the combined value of transfers into or out of
operation and maintenance (O-1), a procurement (P-1) or
research, development, test and evaluation (R-1) line exceed
the identified threshold, the Department of Defense must
submit a prior approval reprogramming to the congressional
defense committees. In addition, guidelines on the
application of prior approval reprogramming procedures for
congressional special interest items are established
elsewhere in these materials.
Funding Increases
The funding increases outlined in the tables for each
appropriation account shall be provided only for the specific
purposes indicated in the tables.
TITLE I--MILITARY PERSONNEL
For Military Personnel, funds are to be available for
fiscal year 2009, as follows:

[[Page 21183]]
Stop Loss
The Department of Defense continues to involuntarily extend
the service commitments of active duty and selected reserve
servicemembers. These extensions, known as stop loss, are
used to retain servicemembers an average of six months beyond
their initial end-of-term-of-service date. Although the
Secretary of Defense has tried to minimize the use of this
practice, the Army continues to use stop loss for its active
and reserve components, arguing that it allows the Service to
maintain unit integrity. However, the continued use of stop
loss remains a concern as it may undermine the morale of the
Nation's servicemembers and the voluntary nature of the Armed
Forces.
Therefore, the Secretary of Defense and the Services are
directed to provide stop loss data as part of the end-
strength portion of the fiscal year 2010 military personnel
budget justification material and a report to the
congressional defense committees that examines the impact, if
any, stop loss has had on recruiting and any correlations
between extended deployments, often involving stop-lossed
servicemembers, and domestic assaults, sexual assaults and
alcohol offenses. This report shall be submitted no later
than 180 days after enactment of this Act. Furthermore, the
Secretary of Defense shall submit to the congressional
defense committees a report containing the results of a study
evaluating the feasibility and costs of providing a special
pay, in the manner authorized by section 8116, to all members
of the Army, Navy, Air Force, and Marine Corps, including
former and retired members, who at any time during the period
beginning on October 1, 2001, and ending on September 30,
2008, served on active duty while the member's enlistment or
period of obligated service was extended, or whose
eligibility for retirement was suspended. This report shall
be submitted no later than 60 days after enactment of this
Act.
Cash Incentives
The Department has initiated many programs that rely solely
on cash incentives when enlisting new recruits and retaining
current personnel. While these cash incentives have enhanced
recruitment and retention efforts and helped the Services
meet their end-strength goals, there is concern that the
Services have increased both the size and scope of these cash
incentives without performance metrics to determine whether
these bonuses are cost effective and necessary in light of
the other, improved personnel benefits now being provided.
Accordingly, the Secretary of Defense is directed to provide
a report to the congressional defense committees that
describes these cash incentives, specifically to include: the
number of cash incentives used for recruitment and retention;
the average amount provided for each military occupational
specialty; the length of contract required for each type of
enlistment and reenlistment bonus; and the performance
metrics used to determine the effectiveness of, and
requirement for, various levels of bonus compensation. This
report shall be submitted not later than February 1, 2009.
Realignment of Funds
Funds were realigned within the Military Personnel, Air
Force, account to support Air Force efforts to halt its
personnel drawdown. The Air Force had been on course to
drawdown end strength from 329,563 to 316,600 in fiscal year
2009. However, they have recently changed course to support a
manning level of 326,000 airmen and grow to 330,000 in fiscal
year 2010. This newly planned personnel growth, along with
readjusted cost calculations, has led to savings in officer
voluntary separation pay and permanent change of station
expenses and has created additional costs in enlisted
personnel pay and allowances. The majority of these savings
have been realigned to fund the enlisted personnel increase.
The remainder of the savings was not realigned as the Air
Force, which is already below its planned end-strength, will
likely not achieve its end-strength goal of 326,000.
Dwell Time
The Army and Marine Corps active duty and reserve personnel
have experienced reduced dwell time due to an accelerated
deployment cycle. This reduction in dwell time has placed a
significant strain on servicemembers, their families, and the
employers of reservists. In addition, the frequent and
extended deployments of National Guard and Reserve personnel
have left our Nation more vulnerable during national
emergencies, such as forest fires and hurricane disaster
evacuation and response. Reduced dwell time has further
contributed to reduced opportunities to train for the full
spectrum of combat missions. Although the Services expect to
return to more normal deployment lengths at the end of fiscal
year 2008, the Secretary of Defense is directed to provide a
report on the unit rotation cycle (i.e., the patch report) to
the congressional defense committees within 30 days of the
end of each quarter.
Health Professions Scholarship Program
Personnel shortages in numerous medical specialties across
the Services remain a concern. Recruiting and retaining these
specialized personnel has proven to be challenging. The
health professions scholarship program has been a successful
tool in recruiting military medical personnel and, for this
reason, it is disappointing that the Army and Air Force
health professions scholarship programs are significantly
underfunded in the budget request. To support continued
efforts to recruit military medical personnel, an additional
$18,400,000 in Reserve Personnel, Army, and $13,000,000 in
Reserve Personnel, Air Force are included for the health
professions scholarship program. This additional funding
shall be used solely for this purpose. The Services are
expected to fully fund this program in fiscal year 2010.
Reserve Component Participation Rate and Mobilization Assumptions
When constructing reserve personnel budgets, planners must
project what percentage of reservists is likely to
participate in annual training and weekend drills. Since
operations began in Afghanistan and Iraq, participation
levels have varied widely based on the number of mobilized
reservists who are unavailable to drill and the number of
reservists using extra drill periods to perform pre-
mobilization training. Some Services have incorporated these
factors into their projections, while others have not.
Currently, there is no Department-wide guidance on the
assumptions and methodology that should be used when
budgeting for future-year annual training and weekend drill
participation rates. This lack of guidance has led to
unjustified growth in the Pay Group A and B accounts for
several reserve components. For fiscal year 2009, funding has
again been shifted from these activities to other activities
within the same account where shortfalls were identified.
The deployment of Active Guard and Reserve (AGR) personnel
has also complicated the process of budgeting for full time
personnel costs. Deployed AGRs from some reserve components
are paid from reserve personnel accounts, while AGRs from
other reserve components are paid from active duty accounts.
It is not clear that these reserve components have accurately
incorporated AGR deployment assumptions and the corresponding
personnel savings into their AGR cost analysis.
The Secretary of Defense is directed to work with the
Services to establish guidelines for what assumptions and
methodology should be used when constructing future-year
training participation rate and AGR cost projections. The
Department is directed to provide a report to the
congressional defense committees that details the guidance
issued to the Services. This report shall be submitted not
later than February 15, 2009.
Reserve Component Budget Structure
In fiscal year 2008, Congress extended testing of a
consolidated budget structure for the reserve components'
military personnel accounts. Since that time, the single
budget activity format has provided additional spending
flexibility to the reserve components. Therefore, the
consolidated budget structure shall be made permanent with
the understanding that the Department will submit quarterly
reports to the congressional defense committees showing all
transfers between activities and sub-activities of each
reserve personnel appropriation. The reports shall provide
separate explanations for all transfers that equal, exceed,
or cumulate to $2,000,000; and a beginning and ending total
by line item. The report shall be due 30 days following the
end of each quarter.
Government Accountability Office Unobligated Balance and End-Strength
Reports
The Government Accountability Office is requested to
continue its annual analysis of military personnel
unobligated balances and end-strength levels. These reports
serve as an important resource for Congress' budgetary
analysis. The reports should be submitted to the
congressional defense committees not later than May 15th of
each year.
Boots-on-the-Ground and Cost of War Reporting
There remains a continuing need for accurate and timely
information on actual/estimated costs and deployment numbers
associated with Operation Iraqi Freedom (OIF) and Operation
Enduring Freedom (OEF). Therefore, not later than the 10th
day of each month following the enactment of this Act, the
Secretary of Defense is directed to submit to the
congressional defense committees:
(1) a ``Boots-on-the-Ground'' report providing, for the
most recent month for which data is available, the total
number of troops deployed in support of OIF and OEF, further
delineated by service and component (active, Reserve, or
National Guard) and a monthly estimate for the three-month
period following the date such report is submitted of the
total number of troops expected to be deployed in support of
OIF and OEF, further delineated by service and component
(active, Reserve, or National Guard). This report may be
submitted in classified form; and
(2) a monthly report of funds obligated in support of OIF
and OEF covering the most recent period for which data are
available, by month and fiscal year. This report shall be
delineated and summarized by operation, by military service,
by component (active, Reserve, or National Guard), and by
appropriations account.

Directed Transfer of Working Capital Fund Cash
Section 8119 reduces funding to the Operation and Maintence
accounts to reflect cash balance adjustments in the Defense
Working Capital Funds. The Department is directed to transfer
$823,000,000 from Defense Working Capital Fund, Army, to
Operation and Maintence, Army, and transfer $36,000,000 from
the Defense Working Capital Fund Air Force, to Operation and
Maintence, Air Force.
``Soft'' Power and Inter-Agency Burden Sharing
The current inter-agency allocation of resources and
responsibilities does not support an appropriate balance of
the civilian and military instruments of national security.
The Department of Defense has learned in recent years that
successful security and stability operations require not only
military action, but also sustained application of the
diplomatic, development and economic tools that are the
traditional responsibilities of the Department of State and
the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID).
Reflecting the importance of these non-military national
security assets, the Secretary of Defense has repeatedly
called for a dramatic increase in U.S. spending on diplomacy,
foreign assistance, civic action, and economic development
and reconstruction.
The Department has often assumed responsibility for
development and reconstruction activities reluctantly and
because the civilian agencies are either unable or unwilling
to carry them out. However, significant increases were
requested for several programs that duplicate efforts
traditionally carried out by the Department of State and
USAID, notably, the global train and equip and global
security and stability programs; the new humanitarian relief
aspect of the Combatant Commander's Initiative Fund; and a
thirty-percent increase in the funds requested for the
Commander's Emergency Response Program (CERP).
This apparent consolidation of U.S. security assistance,
foreign aid, and humanitarian assistance and development
programs within the Department of Defense is concerning.
Neither the Nation's nor the Department's interests are well
served by this institutional shift of responsibility for
traditional elements of soft power'' from U.S. civilian
agencies to the military. Given the tremendous strains the
services face in the current operational environment, the
Department should refrain from assuming additional soft power
roles and work with Congress and the next Administration
toward a more rational balance of inter-agency burden sharing
and resource allocation.
Family Advocacy Program
The bill provides a total of $410,000,000 for family
advocacy programs in fiscal year 2009. The additional funding
provided herein will enhance the activities of the Family
Advocacy Program (FAP) and provide for children and families
managing the difficult challenges of military service. The
concern about the growing need for family members to have
access to professional counseling to help alleviate the
mental stresses associated with deployments continues as
stress on families reaches unprecedented levels. Current
challenges facing today's military families include multiple
and lengthy deployments, frequent moves, a shortage of child
care nationwide, a wide range of financial complexities, the
need for a two-income family and family reintegration. The
loss of the daily presence of a parent--or parents--in the
home and the worry about the safety of a deployed parent is a
difficult burden for children. The activities provided by FAP
products and services help mitigate the disruption and stress
in the military family when facing a variety of stressors,
such as relocation, deployment, shifts in family
responsibility, and the loss or injury of loved ones.
The Department is taking action to create a Military
OneSource Center to develop cutting-edge quality of life
support for the military's emerging needs including
deployment, mobilization, and reintegration. The Center will
promote the readiness of military families throughout the
military life cycle, from recruitment, relocation, deployment
and mobilization, to retirement.
Therefore, a family advocacy program line has been created
within the Operation and Maintenance, Defense-Wide account to
enable better execution of the funding provided and to enable
the Military OneSource Center to conduct appropriate
evaluation and development of cost-effective quality of life
resources that can be made available to all servicemembers
and their families. The Family Advocacy Program should
continue umbrella programs to include Military OneSource call
center, counseling (financial and family), and other outreach
programs that are most efficiently resourced at the
Department level and any other missions deemed necessary that
demonstrate a benefit to the servicemembers and their
families. The Center will institutionalize the support that
has been provided to servicemembersCC and their families
since the beginning of the Global War on Terror.
Joint Task Force Guantanamo/Detainee Operations
The Secretary of Defense has indicated that he favors
closing the detention facilities at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba. The
June 12, 2008 decision by the United States Supreme Court
that detainees at Guantanamo are entitled to the procedural
protection of habeas corpus undermines the rationale to
continue holding detainees offshore. Therefore, the Secretary
is directed to develop options for the disposition of the
Guantanamo Bay detention facility (to include potential
closure), and the relocation of its population to alternative
detention facilities; and to provide a report on such
options, including the potential cost, schedule and
disposition of detainees to the congressional defense
committees within 180 days of enactment of this Act.
Facilities Sustainment, Restoration and Modernization
The Department of Defense has not directed sufficient
management attention to maintaining and repairing facilities
and the Department is deferring maintence on barracks and
other facilities affecting the quality of life of Service
personnel. Early this year, the deplorable living conditions
that servicemembers had to endure upon returning from
deployment came to light. Billions of dollars have been
provided over the years for facilities repair; however, these
funds are often used as funding sources for other operation
and maintenance year-of-execution funding requirements. The
bill provides an additional $493,500,000 for sustainment,
restoration and modernization of barracks. In order to ensure
that these funds are obligated and expended for sustainment,
restoration and modernization of barracks, these funds shall
be treated as a congressional interest item and should be so
designated on the DD Form 1414.
Further, to focus management attention on the condition of
barracks, the Department is directed to survey barracks at
all Defense installations and document the extent to which
barracks meet the established Department standards; reasons
why such facilities fail to meet such standards; and estimate
the funding required by fiscal year for each military service
to bring barracks into compliance with the Department's
standards. The Secretary of Defense is to provide the results
of this survey to the congressional defense committees not
later than February 27, 2009.
Operation and Maintenance Reprogrammings
The bill includes a provision identical to the provision
enacted in fiscal year 2008 that requires the Department to
submit the DD Form 1414, Base for Reprogramming Actions, for
each of the fiscal year 2009 appropriations accounts within
60 days after the enactment of this Act. This provision
prohibits the Department from executing any reprogramming or
transfer of funds for any purpose other than originally
appropriated until the aforementioned report is submitted to
the House and the Senate Committees on Appropriations.
With respect to the Service's operation and maintenance
accounts, the Department shall submit prior approval
reprogramming requests to the congressional defense
committees for proposed transfers of funds in excess of
$15,000,000 to or from the levels specified for budget
activities. In addition, the Department should follow prior
approval reprogramming procedures for transfers in excess of
$15,000,000 out of the following budget subactivities:
Operation and Maintenance, Army:
Land Forces Depot Maintenance
Operation and Maintenance, Navy:
Aircraft Depot Maintenance
Ship Depot Maintenance
Operation and Maintenance, Marine Corps:
Depot Maintenance
Operation and Maintenance, Air Force:
Air Operations Depot Maintenance
Mobility Operations Depot Maintenance
Basic Skills/Training Depot Maintenance
Logistics Operations Depot Maintenance
Further, the Department shall provide written notification
of cumulative transfers in excess of $15,000,000 from the
following budget subactivities:
Operation and Maintenance, Army:
Maneuver Units
Modular Support Brigades
Land Forces Operations Support
Force Readiness Operations Support
Base Operations Support
Facilities, Sustainment, Restoration and Modernization
Operation and Maintenance, Navy:
Facilities Sustainment, Restoration and Modernization
Operation and Maintenance, Marine Corps:
Facilities Sustainment, Restoration and Modernization
Operation and Maintenance, Air Force: Primary Combat Forces
Combat Enhancement Forces
Combat Communications
Facilities Sustainment, Restoration and Modernization
With respect to Operation and Maintenance, Defense-Wide,
proposed transfers of funds to or from the levels specified
for defense agencies in excess of $15,000,000 shall be
subject to prior approval reprogramming procedures. In
addition, the Department shall provide written notification
of cumulative transfers in excess of $15,000,000 or 20
percent, whichever is less, from the following line items
identified in the Operation
[[Page 21221]]
and Maintenance, Defense-Wide project level table contained
in this Act:
Defense Legal Service Agency
Office of the Secretary of Defense
Acquisition, Technology, and Logistics Programs
Personnel and Readiness
Comptroller and Chief Financial Officer
Under Secretary of Defense (Intelligence)
Under Secretary of Defense (Policy)
Director, Program Analysis and Evaluation
Assistant Secretary for Defense (Networks and Information
Integration)
A congressional interest item contained in Operation and
Maintenance, Defense-Wide is defined only as a specified
increase provided in this Act.
Operation and Maintenance Budget Execution Data
The Department of Defense is directed to continue to
provide the congressional defense committees with quarterly
budget execution data. Such data should be provided not later
than forty-five days past the close of each quarter for the
fiscal year, and shall be provided for each O--1 budget
activity, activity group, and subactivity group for each of
the active, defense-wide, reserve and National Guard
components. For each O--1 budget activity, activity group,
and subactivity group, these reports shall include: the
budget request and actual obligations; the Department of
Defense distribution of unallocated congressional adjustments
to the budget request; all adjustments made in establishing
the Base for Reprogramming (DD Form 1414) report; all
adjustments resulting from below threshold reprogrammings;
and all adjustments resulting from prior approval
reprogramming requests.
Electrical Fires at Military Bases in Iraq
There is concern with the number and severity of electrical
fires at military bases in Iraq. In a single six month
period, 283 fires destroyed or damaged military facilities in
Iraq. More than a dozen servicemembers have been electrocuted
in Iraq since the beginning of the war, with many more
injured, some seriously. This is unacceptable. The Secretary
is directed, within 60 days of enactment of this Act, to
provide a report to the congressional defense committees that
details the extent and causes of the problem, and what
mitigating and corrective actions the Department plans.
Ground Combat Helmet Pads
The frequency of traumatic brain injury among ground combat
forces due to accidents and combat operations, including
attacks by improvised explosive devices and explosively
formed penetrators, is a matter of great concern. The Army
and Marine Corps should leverage all available technology to
provide combat helmets that offer the best possible
protection against traumatic brain injury. Reportedly, the
Army may be exploring the possibilities of adapting certain
aspects of padding used in protective helmets worn in
professional sports to better protect soldiers against
concussions, and the Army and the Marine Corps may accept
helmet padding that meets minimum standards when better
performing padding may be available, albeit at a greater
cost. The Army and Marine Corps are encouraged to
aggressively pursue all available advances in protection
against head injuries among ground combat soldiers.
The Government Accountability Office is directed to provide
a report and recommendations to the congressional defense
committees within 120 days of enactment of this Act on the
padding used in ground combat helmets by the Army and Marine
Corps. The report shall address the materials in use and
improved products that may be available for use for shock
absorption, all weather performance, maintainability and
overall best value attributes.
Alaskan Command Deployment Support
In light of the recent and projected deployment of military
forces from Alaska in support of the Global War on Terror,
the significant hardships encountered by many families and
spouses during these lengthy deployments are recognized.
Considering that two Army brigades and an Air Expeditionary
Force will be deployed at the same time in 2009, the stress
of these deployments on families will be significant. During
a servicemembers' absence, military spouses are solely
responsible for caring for children, maintaining employment,
and managing household finances. Accordingly, $6,000,000 is
provided to support the needs of these families, of which
$2,000,000 is specifically intended for child care support
services.
Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance
The Secretary of Defense notified the House and the Senate
Committees on Appropriations of a number of urgent
Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance needs for
fiscal year 2009 that were not contained in the President's
budget request. In order to respond to these emerging
requirements, an increase of $750,000,000 is provided in
operation and maintenance, procurement, and research,
development, test and evaluation accounts. The following
table includes operation and maintenance funds provided in
support of this initiative.

Army Continuing Education System
It is important to provide returning soldiers and wounded
warriors with opportunities to engage in retraining and
vocational education programs. Community college systems
throughout the Nation can readily provide these opportunities
without duplicating the military's efforts. Therefore,
$19,000,000 is provided for the Army's off-duty and voluntary
education retraining programs under the Army Continuing
Education System to provide increased opportunity for
soldiers and wounded warriors to acquire technical,
vocational or advanced training and re-training. The Army is
directed to work with accredited community colleges to build
upon existing programs and develop new pilot re-training
programs in high demand career occupations, including
rehabilitation, nursing, medical technology and other health
care occupations.
Smart Contracting
For the past several years, significant attention and
resources have been focused on the Department's acquisition
process and its workforce. There is commitment to providing
the tools and resources to facilitate smarter contracting
processes. The Secretary of the Army is directed to submit a
report to the congressional defense committees no later than
60 days after enactment of this Act, detailing the Army's
progress in implementing the key recommendations of the
Gansler Commission.
OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE, NAVY

Combatant Commander Residual Funding
In the fiscal year 2009 budget request, each Service
created two new budget line items to track combatant
commander (COCOM) resources. According to the fiscal year
2008 budget, COCOM funding for the Navy to support Joint
Forces Command and Pacific Command was budgeted in line 1C6C
Combat Support Forces in the amount of $398,000,000 for
fiscal year 2009. However, the fiscal year 2009 budget only
transferred $378,000,000 to the new budget lines. Therefore,
line 1C6C Combat Support Forces is overstated and is reduced
by $20,000,000. The reduction shall not be applied to COCOM
resources.
Naval Shipyard Workforce Development Programs
There is concern about the challenges to recruit and retain
qualified personnel at the Navy shipyards. It is becoming
increasingly difficult to attract and retain engineers into
the public sector primarily because of the benefits offered
to engineers in the private sector and because the shipyards
do not have the necessary programs and incentives to groom
executive management and leadership skills to further
workforce development. There is strong support for the Naval
Apprenticeship Program, which has the potential to contribute
to the workforce in other positions if provided opportunities
and incentives. Therefore, the Navy is directed to establish
programs to provide opportunities and financial incentives
for top performers to receive four-year engineering degrees,
executive management training certificates, and business
school degrees. Programs similar to the apprenticeship
program can help stave off the impending steep decline in
personnel at the shipyards and ensure a more stable
workforce. The Navy is directed to work with each shipyard
and the respective local educational institutions to craft
these programs and report to the House and the Senate
Committees on Appropriations by April 30, 2009, on a plan for
implementation.
Naval Shipyard Apprentice Program
During fiscal year 2009, the Navy shall induct classes of
no fewer than 100 apprentices, respectively, at each of the
naval shipyards. The Navy is directed to include the costs of
the fiscal year 2010 class of apprentices in its budget
request.
U.S. Coast Guard
Department of Defense regulations currently restrict
mission appropriated activities from offering reimbursable
rates to non-Department of Defense agencies. This restriction
forces the Navy to charge the U.S. Coast Guard fully-burdened
rates for drydocking services at Navy shipyards rather than
reimbursable rates. Therefore, the Navy may use funds
appropriated under operation and maintenance to pay the cost
to dry dock U.S. Coast Guard ships at Naval shipyards.
OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE, MARINE CORPS

Grand Forks Air Force Base, North Dakota, Infrastructure
The January 2008 United States Air Force Weapons Systems
Roadmap anticipates a future KC-X tanker mission at Grand
Forks Air Force Base after the departure of the base's
current fleet of KC-135R tankers. Thus, the Air Force is
directed to prepare a report which recommends the best way to
keep the base and its associated infrastructure viable until
the potential arrival of KC-X tanker aircraft so it does not
have to rebuild or recreate facilities and capabilities that
now exist. This report shall be provided to the House and the
Senate Committees on Appropriations within 90 days of
enactment of this Act.

U.S. Africa Command
A stable, secure Africa is strategically important to the
United States and our allies. The creation of U.S. Africa
Command (AFRICOM) is a first-step in developing a persistent,
cohesive U.S. policy toward that continent. However,
AFRICOM's current funding, staffing and organizational
configuration place a disproportionate burden of U.S. policy
in Africa on the Department of Defense (DoD).
While armed conflict, terrorism, piracy and trafficking
pose real security threats to African stability that can be
mitigated by closer military ties between the U.S. and our
African partners, many of the challenges facing Africa today
require diplomatic, economic, humanitarian and development
tools of other, non-DoD U.S. agencies. Calming political
unrest, building civil society, consolidating democratic
achievements, expanding economic growth, addressing
humanitarian crises, preventing the spread of HIV/AIDS and
caring for its victims require a robust inter-agency and
international approach.
Some of the U.S. partners in Africa have also signaled
their discomfort with the military-first approach embodied by
AFRICOM. Of the dozen nations asked to host AFRICOM's
headquarters or one of the five planned Regional Integration
Team (RIT) offices, few have expressed public interest.
Despite repeated assurances from the Secretary of Defense,
the people and governments of friendly African nations
believe that AFRICOM potentially represents a permanent U.S.
military presence on the continent.
While the creation of AFRICOM is a crucial first-step in
establishing a strategic U.S. policy toward Africa, the
current inter-agency division of labor is not optimal for
meeting U.S. long term goals. The Department of Defense
should work within the inter-agency process to correct the
alignment of U.S. human and financial resources to more
effectively support the emergence of a stable, secure,
successful and democratic Africa. The Department of State and
the U.S. Agency for International Development should also
play a more significant role in this new organization
supported with the appropriate funding and manpower required.
In the mean time, the Secretary of Defense, in coordination
with the Secretary of State and the Administrator of the U.S.
Agency for International Development, is directed to provide
a report, no later than April 1, 2009, to the congressional
defense committees, on how AFRICOM's mission, staffing, and
inter-agency composition can be optimized to create an
organization better equipped to meet these policy objectives.
The report should also include current thinking on AFRICOM's
presence in Africa and any plans related to the permanent
location of AFRICOM assets or personnel on the continent.
Military Tires
The Department of Defense Appropriations Act, 2008 (Public
Law 110-116) directed the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) to
ensure that the military tire market remains a fair and
competitive marketplace as DLA implements the tire
privatization initiative required by the 2005 Base
Realignment and Closure Act. Specifically, the conferees
directed DLA to ``ensure that all tire manufacturers are on
an equal footing in the competitive market with respect to
information on tire demand and that, to the extent
practicable under the existing contracts, new tire types are
subject to fair and equal competition among qualified
manufacturers.'' There is concern that the DLA has not
sufficiently complied with these requirements and the need to
ensure that all tire manufacturers are provided access to the
Government's forecasts for future tire needs. Therefore, the
Secretary of Defense is directed to report to the
congressional defense committees by April 15, 2009, on what
steps are being taken to maintain a fair and competitive
marketplace for military tires.
Defense Contract Management Agency
In fiscal year 2008, Congress provided an additional
$14,000,000 to the Defense Contract Management Agency (DCMA)
to eliminate planned reductions in full-time staff. This
additional funding, which was designated a ``congressional
item of interest,'' was nevertheless inappropriately
subjected to an across-the-board funding reduction imposed by
the Under Secretary of Defense, Comptroller. The Secretary of
Defense is directed to provide a report to the congressional
defense committees within 60 days of enactment of this Act
addressing the following: the justification (if any) for this
reduction; the impact of this reduction on the number of
full-time DCMA staff; and the Department's plan for restoring
any full-time staff that may have been lost as a result of
the Department's failure to carry out the directive.
An additional $52,000,000 was also provided to DCMA in the
Fiscal Year 2008 Emergency Supplemental Appropriations Act
for the purpose of hiring 250 full-time contract-management
personnel. The Secretary is directed to include in the
aforementioned report a spend plan for this additional
funding, an assessment of future additional staffing
requirements DCMA will have in order to ensure proper
oversight and management of anticipated contracting work
load, and a workforce plan for achieving the necessary
staffing levels.
Global Train and Equip Program
For the Global Train and Equip Program, $350,000,000 is
provided under the Defense Security Cooperation Agency. This
limited authority was designed as a pilot project to enhance
our ongoing programs to train and equip allied nations'
counterterrorism efforts. Normally, the Department of State
is tasked to perform this critical function, but the
Department of Defense requested the ability to augment these
efforts due to the Global War on Terror. Increasing the
Nation's counterterrorism efforts around the globe is
strongly supported but the responsibility to train and equip
foreign military forces should rest with the Department of
State. The Administration should request funds for this
purpose in the Department of State's budget when this
authority expires.
Federal Prison Industries
The Bureau of Prisons considers Federal Prison Industries
(FPI) an important correctional tool that plays a critical
role in reducing inmate recidivism and idleness. To ensure
the success of the FPI program, United States Code (USC)
Title 18, Chapter 307 requires Federal departments and
agencies to purchase products from FPI ``as meet their
requirements and may be available''. However, Congress has
expressed concern that this provision of law could impose on
the Department of Defense a requirement to procure products
that do not meet the needs of the Department in terms of
price, quality and timeliness of delivery. To meet this
concern, section 827 of the National Defense Authorization
Act of Fiscal Year 2008 (Public Law 110-181) requires the
Secretary to use competitive procedures for the procurement
of certain products offered for sale by the FPI. The
Secretary is directed to report to the congressional defense
committees no later than 45 days after the enactment of this
Act on a plan to implement this new requirement, consistent
with the requirements of USC Title 18, Chapter 307, Section
4124(d).
Oil Refineries
When making public contract announcements regarding the
refining of fuel by U.S. companies, the U.S. Department of
Defense should not provide the name of the country for which
the fuel is being refined or the location of the facility
that will refine the fuel.
Troops to Pilots Demonstration Program
In 2007, Congress directed the Federal Aviation
Administration to increase the mandatory retirement age for
commercial airline pilots from age 60 to 65, temporarily
alleviating the onset of a national pilot shortage. Although
this action improved and maintained a legitimate working
number of pilots in the civil industry, there remains a
growing shortage of new pilots to take over for those who
look to retire over the next decade. A potential option for
replenishing the dwindling number of experienced aviators in
the country would be to utilize retiring or discharged
military aviators from military service to civil pilots. The
Department of Defense has similar programs designed to ease
service members' transition to civilian life, such as Troops
to Teachers, Troops to Nurses, and Helmets to Hardhats.
Accordingly, $2,500,000 is included for a demonstration
program that will train and recruit retiring or discharged
military aviators who wish to pursue a career in civilian
aviation. This program should be conducted in a state that
has a high per capita number of pilots as well as a sizeable
military aviation presence. The program should also take into
account heavy geographic reliance on aviation along with a
robust aviation infrastructure, including academic
institutions with expertise in piloting and aviation
technology.

Congressional Interest Items
Items for which additional funds have been provided as
shown in the project level tables or in paragraphs using the
phrase ``only for'' or ``only to'' are congressional interest
items for purposes of the Base for Reprogramming Department
of Defense form (DD Form 1414). Each of these items must be
carried on the DD Form 1414 at the stated amount, as
specifically addressed in these materials.
Acquisition Cost
The Department of Defense has exhibited an alarming trend
in funding acquisition programs below full cost. In recent
years, the Littoral Combat Ship, the Future Combat Systems,
the Armed Reconnaissance Helicopter, and the Electromagnetic
Aircraft Launching System have all required funds to be
reprogrammed in an execution year to correct shortfalls.
Additionally, the Joint Strike Fighter, the Future Combat
Systems, the Expeditionary Fighting Vehicle, the Global Hawk
Unmanned Aerial Vehicle, and the Space Based Infrared
Satellite System have all required restructuring by the
Department during the budget formulation period. Funds used
to correct these shortfalls typically are taken from other
acquisition programs. This trend is disturbing and ultimately
reduces overall stability in the Department's acquisition
programs.
The causes for this practice are varied and many. In some
cases, the Department violates its own policy by not funding
programs to the estimate provided by the Department's Cost
Analysis Improvement Group (CAIG), which is required by
statute to conduct an independent cost estimate on major
acquisition programs. In other cases, the cost estimates are
flawed, missing key elements of cost. Cost growth or
technical challenges are frequently cited as a reason for
funding shortfalls, although the fundamental causes can
usually be traced back to not funding to the proper estimate
from program inception. A major contributor to this problem
is that lower than reasonable proposals for programs from
contractors are oftentimes accepted by the Department as an
opportunity to get major programs started because, once
started, history has proven that major programs are rarely
terminated.
By underfunding programs, the Department lengthens
development schedules, costs the taxpayers additional
dollars, and delays fielding critical capabilities to our
Nation's Armed Forces. The Department must be more
accountable and fiscally responsible. Since the Department
takes the time and expends the resources to conduct
independent cost estimates, it should use that information in
formulating budgets for the programs. The Department is
directed to provide a report to the congressional defense
committees that shows which Acquisition Category I (ACAT I)
programs did not use the CAIG estimate as the official
program estimate at a milestone decision and an explanation
as to why the CAIG estimate was not used. The report should
encompass the period from fiscal year 2004 through fiscal
year 2008 and be submitted prior to March 1, 2009.
Future Combat Systems (FCS) Restructure
The Future Combat Systems (FCS) remains the Army's top
priority modernization program, designed to provide rapidly
deployable, highly survivable and lethal forces. While the
program has struggled with changing requirements and cost
growth in recent years and undergone multiple restructures,
support remains strong for the Army's goal to create a more
capable and modern force. Most recently, the Army informed
Congress of its intent to change the near-term focus of FCS
by fielding available capabilities to Infantry Brigade Combat
Teams, which are in high demand in the Global War on Terror,
and deferring the fielding of these technologies to Heavy
Brigade Combat Teams, which were originally slated to first
receive the initial FCS spin outs. In support of this program
shift, the Army has requested an adjustment to its fiscal
year 2009 budget request for FCS from within program funds.
Funding in the bill supports the Army's plan to field proven
technologies that provide immediate enhanced capabilities to
the warfighter and fully supports the Army's requested
program adjustments, as detailed below.

Acquisition Workforce Development Fund
Section 852 of the National Defense Authorization Act for
Fiscal Year 2008 established the Department of Defense
Acquisition Workforce Development Fund (AWDF) to finance
recruiting, training, and retention of acquisition personnel.
Funding for the AWDF is generated by taking funds
appropriated for other programs. In fiscal year 2008, the
planned funding level is approximately $258,000,000 and it
will grow to $600,000,000 in fiscal year 2011 and thereafter.
There is concern about sustaining a trained, capable and
adequately manned acquisition workforce, particularly as the
Department faces a wave of retirements over the coming years
that may leave the workforce without the most experienced
members. However, there are problems with the way the AWDF is
currently constituted. These concerns include:
--AWDF funding is not based on an estimate of the program's
requirements;
--Projected use of the funding is not provided in advance
to Congress;
--The accounting process skews the obligation and
expenditure data on appropriations used to finance the AWDF;
--Expiring funds may be used to finance the AWDF thereby
extending, or effectively re-appropriating without
congressional approval, those funds for up to two years
beyond the original life of the appropriation.
The simple and straightforward solution to these problems
is to bring the AWDF into the regular appropriations process.
The Department is directed to include the funding required
for the Acquisition Workforce Development Fund in its fiscal
year 2010 budget request.
Government Accountability Office
For each of the past six years, the Government
Accountability Office has provided an assessment on a broad
range of weapon systems that consists of (1) a macro analysis
of how well acquisition programs are performing and reasons
for that performance, and (2) specific analyses of individual
weapon system programs. The report that results from this
annual assessment has proven invaluable as an independent
look at cross-cutting acquisition issues and in evaluating
the status of individual weapon systems. This work has thus
far been conducted under the Comptroller General's own
authority. The Comptroller General is directed to perform the
annual assessment of selected weapon system programs and to
report the results of the assessment to the congressional
defense committees by March 30th of each year.
Joint Strike Fighter F-136 Engine Development
The fiscal year 2009 budget request included no funding for
the continued development of the F-136 engine as an alternate
engine within the Joint Strike Fighter program. The bill
includes $430,000,000 for the continued development of this
engine within the Navy and Air Force's Joint Strike Fighter
development programs and $35,000,000 for advance procurement
items within the Aircraft Procurement, Air Force
appropriation. The Secretary of Defense is once again
directed to fully fund the F-136 engine development and
procurement efforts in the fiscal year 2010 budget
submission.
Air Force Acquisition
The Air Force continues to experience significant
difficulties in acquiring major acquisition systems in a
timely and cost effective manner. From protests upheld by the
Government Accountability Office (GAO) to numerous Nunn-
McCurdy breaches, it is apparent that the acquisition process
is seriously flawed and change is needed. As a starting
point, the Air Force needs to ensure that its programs have
well-understood requirements, manageable development cycles,
realistic cost estimates, and adequate program funding for
the entire development cycle. There are a number of remedies
that would improve the Air Force's prospects in its
acquisitions. Some examples are:
Disciplined use of tried and true systems engineering
practices to ensure that a proposed system's performance
requirements are achievable with available resources before
beginning an acquisition program;
Establishing a clear business case for each program that is
agreed upon by the warfighter, the comptroller, and the
acquisition community;
Maturing technologies until they are ready for an
acquisition program (separating technology development from
acquisition programs);
Continuing to develop a skilled workforce capable of
managing requirements trades, source selection, and
knowledge-based acquisition strategies;
Basing programmatic decisions on demonstrated knowledge;
and
Matching program manager tenure with the duration of the
system design and demonstration phase of a program, and
tailoring career paths and performance management systems to
incentivize longer tenures.
The Secretary of Defense is directed to provide a report no
later than March 31, 2009,
[[Page 21273]]
to the congressional defense committees on the Department's
plans to reform Air Force acquisition to address the problems
that have continued to plague the acquisition process.
Reprogramming Guidance for Acquisition Accounts
The Department of Defense is directed to continue to follow
the reprogramming guidance specified in the House Report (H.
Rept. 110-279) accompanying the Fiscal Year 2008 Department
of Defense Appropriations Act. Specifically, the dollar
threshold for reprogramming funds will remain at $20,000,000
for procurement, and $10,000,000 for research, development,
test and evaluation. The Department shall continue to follow
the limitation that prior approval reprogrammings are set at
either the specified dollar threshold or 20 percent of the
procurement or research, development, test and evaluation
line, whichever is less. These thresholds are cumulative.
Therefore, if the combined value of transfers into or out of
a procurement (P-1) or research, development, test and
evaluation (R-1) line exceeds the identified threshold, the
Department of Defense must submit a prior approval
reprogramming to the congressional defense committees. In
addition, guidelines on the application of prior approval
reprogramming procedures for congressional interest items are
established elsewhere in these materials.
Reprogramming Reporting Requirements
The Under Secretary of the Department of Defense,
Comptroller is directed to continue to provide the
congressional defense committees quarterly, spreadsheet-based
DD1416 reports for service and defense-wide accounts in
titles III and IV of this Act as required in the statement of
the managers accompanying the conference report on the
Department of Defense Appropriations Act, 2006.
Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance
The Secretary of Defense notified the House and the Senate
Committees on Appropriations of a number of urgent
Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance (ISR) needs for
fiscal year 2009 that were not contained in the budget
request. In order to respond to these emerging requirements,
an increase of $750,000,000 is provided in operation and
maintenance, procurement, and research, development, test and
evaluation accounts. The following table includes procurement
funds provided in support of this initiative.

Kiowa Warrior
The bill provides an additional $42,000,000 for safety,
performance, and weight enhancements for the Kiowa Warrior.
The Army is directed to use these funds on projects which
provide the greatest benefit for sustaining the Kiowa Warrior
until the Armed Reconnaissance Helicopter is fielded.
Fort Knox Godman Army Airfield
Congress provided $3,200,000 for the Fort Knox Godman Army
Airfield Area Surveillance Radar in the Department of Defense
Appropriations Act, 2008 (Public Law 110-116). Due to the
increasing cost of this initiative, the Army no longer
intends to purchase the radar and now plans to purchase
comparable air traffic control equipment with the funding.
The Army is directed to use the funds for this alternative
purpose at Fort Knox Godman Army Airfield.

High Mobility Multi-Purpose Wheeled Vehicles (HMMWV)
There is concern with the threat of Soldiers and Marines
becoming trapped in overturned HMMWVs. The Army and Marine
Corps are encouraged to outfit deployed HMMWVs with a means
of rapid emergency egress in the event that the vehicle's
doors are inoperable.
Limitation on Single Channel Ground and Airborne Radio System
(SINCGARS) Procurement
The bill includes $87,288,000 for the procurement of
SINCGARS radios. However, concerns remain about the ability
of the Army to adequately manage contracts to fulfill
increased operational requirements for SINCGARS radios. In
particular, recent acquisition decisions and justifications
by the Department of the Army raise questions about its
procurement strategies, especially as they relate to the
Joint Tactical Radio System (JTRS). Therefore, none of the
funds in this Act shall be used for procurement of SINCGARS
radios until the Secretary of Defense certifies to the
congressional defense committees that any such procurement of
SINCGARS radios will utilize full and open competition that
will provide best value for Army radio requirements including
consideration of multi-band, JTRS capable solutions.
Sniper Defeat
There is concern over the Army's slowly evolving approach
to providing materiel solutions to the field for Sniper
Defeat. To date, the Army has not requested funds for Sniper
Defeat in spite of the fact that this issue has been a major
concern since the spring of 2006. In February 2007, the Vice
Chief of Staff, Army directed that a soldier borne and
vehicle/fixed site system be designated as programs of
record. As of June 2008, the Army had neither designated a
program of record for either the soldier or fixed site
program nor had the Army programmed or budgeted any funds for
either of these efforts. A notional program schedule for the
soldier borne system revealed that initial procurement would
not occur until the end of fiscal year 2010 at the earliest.
This is an incorrect acquisition approach for what are
essentially off the shelf, go to war systems. The Army is
expected to budget sufficient funds to ensure all deploying
units are equipped with both soldier borne as well as
vehicle/fixed site capabilities during pre-deployment
training as well as during their deployment.
AIRCRAFT PROCUREMENT, NAVY
For Aircraft Procurement, Navy, funds are to be available
for fiscal year 2009, as follows:

F/A-18 Super Hornet
Shortfalls exist in the Navy's strike-fighter inventory
caused by the aging of older tactical aircraft and the fact
that the F-35 Joint Strike Fighter program will not begin to
deliver carrier aircraft in significant quantities for
several years. In the most optimistic scenario, the shortfall
is approximately 69 aircraft and it could be well above that
level. To ensure that the Navy has sufficient aircraft for
the fleet, the Navy is encouraged to budget for a third
multi-year procurement of Super Hornet aircraft beginning in
fiscal year 2010. In addition, cost reduction measures which
will yield future savings for this program should be
explored.
WEAPONS PROCUREMENT, NAVY
For Weapons Procurement, Navy, funds are to be available

MK-54 Torpedo
The MK-54 Torpedo will combine features of several existing
torpedo programs with updated processing and software to
provide improved performance against modern day threats.
Development and performance issues have significantly delayed
the production of this weapon. The Navy has informed the
House and the Senate Committees on Appropriations that the
program has become backlogged to such a degree that
$23,000,000 of fiscal year 2008 funding will not be used for
fiscal year 2008 torpedo production, but provided to another
Navy priority. Increasing the lightweight torpedo inventory
is the sixth highest unfunded priority of the Navy.
Therefore, the Secretary of the Navy is directed to maintain
this funding in the program and use it to finance lightweight
torpedo requirements once the torpedo contractor demonstrates
a proven production method for the MK-54 program.
Mobile-User Objective System (MUOS)
In late June 2008, Congress was informed that the Mobile-
User Objective System (MUOS) program was encountering
problems that would delay the program and the launch of the
MUOS satellites. Due to this delay and the fact that the MUOS
program's integration and test plan schedule is based on an
Air Force satellite program that is several years behind
schedule, the recommendation reduces the request by
$163,500,000 for the launch vehicle for the second MUOS
satellite. However, the Navy has informed the Congress that
despite the current delays to the program, funding may still
be required in fiscal year 2009 to purchase the launch
vehicle for the second satellite. As such, a reprogramming
will be entertained if the Department of Defense determines
that, despite the current delays, funding is required to
procure a launch vehicle in fiscal year 2009.
PROCUREMENT OF AMMUNITION, NAVY AND MARINE CORPS
For Procurement of Ammunition, Navy and Marine Corps, funds
are to be available for fiscal year 2009, as follows:

Littoral Combat Ship (LCS)
The bill includes $1,020,000,000 for two LCS seaframes and
a rescission of $337,000,000 in fiscal year 2008 LCS funding.
Additionally, funds and material from fiscal year 2006 can be
used to supplement the fiscal year 2009 LCS program. Due to
industrial base concerns, the Navy is directed to make
contract awards for the two fiscal year 2009 LCS seaframes as
soon as practicable.
LPD-17
The bill includes $933,000,000 for the first year of split
funding for the LPD-26. The Navy is directed to budget for
the remaining funding requirement in fiscal year 2010.
Surface Combatant Funding
The bill includes $1,507,603,000 for the first year of
split funding for the DDG-1000 program. The Navy is directed
to budget for the remaining funding requirement in fiscal
year 2010 and to award a construction contract consistent
with the ship's current acquisition schedule and the Joint
Requirements Oversight Council (JROC) review described in the
next section. The bill also includes $200,000,000 in advance
procurement funding to preserve the option to restart the
DDG-51 class destroyer program.
Surface Combatant Review
The Navy's recent decision to truncate production of the
DDG-1000 Zumwalt Class destroyers and restart production of
the DDG-51 Arleigh Burke Class destroyers will require a
program review by the Joint Requirements Oversight Council
(JROC). Therefore, the Department is directed to complete a
JROC program review, as expeditiously as possible, that
examines the Navy's proposal and addresses the warfighting
requirements implications of this decision and revalidates
future surface combatant warfighting requirements prior to
the obligation of any fiscal year 2009 procurement funds for
either destroyer program.
Shipbulding Industrial Base Study
The Department's Cost Analysis Improvement Group is
conducting a study of the shipbuilding industrial base. The
Secretary of Defense is directed to submit the results of
that study to the congressional defense committees upon its
conclusion.

Common Aviation Command and Control System (CAC2S)
CAC2S is intended to be a modernized, single command and
control system designed to replace and consolidate legacy
aviation command and air control systems. Since entering the
System Design and Demonstration phase in 2002, the program
has faced repeated technical hurdles and schedule delays. As
a result, the Marine Corps in June altered its acquisition
strategy, but did not provide detailed schedules and cost
estimates in support of the new acquisition strategy to
Congress. The bill provides $10,000,000 for CAC2S in fiscal
year 2009, a reduction of $39,339,000, and directs that none
of those funds may be obligated until 10 days after the
Marine Corps provides updated program details to the
congressional defense committees, to include cost estimates
and program schedules. It is noted that in the interim,
significant amounts of prior year funding remain available to
continue the upgrade of legacy systems.

MINUTEMAN III MOTOR LIFE EXTENSION PROGRAM
The House and the Senate Committees on Appropriations are
awaiting an Air Force report requested in Senate Report 110-
155 accompanying the Department of Defense Appropriations Act
for Fiscal Year 2008, on the capability of the defense
industrial base to maintain, modernize, and sustain the
Minuteman III system until 2030, and on the industrial base's
capability to replace the Minuteman III with a follow-on
land-based strategic deterrent system after 2030. In the
interim, the Air Force is encouraged, at a minimum, to
continue a warm line status for Minuteman III propulsion
systems and to use funds provided for fiscal year 2009 to

Other Procurement, Air Force Budget Justification Documents
During its budget review, the congressional defense
committees rely on justification documents. It is critical
that these budget justifications adhere to the guidelines set
forth in Department of Defense Financial Management
Regulations (FMR). The regulations clearly state that all
exhibits must include production schedules and, when
appropriate, both quantity and unit cost information. The
Other Procurement, Air Force (OPAF) justification book for
fiscal year 2009 includes few production schedules, and most
P-5 forms omit quantity and unit cost information. In order
to remedy these ommissions, the Air Force is directed to take
corrective actions to ensure its justification books fully
comply with FMR regulations.

Congressional Interest Items
Items for which additional funds have been provided as
shown in the project level tables or in paragraphs using the
phrase ``only for'' or ``only to'' are congressional interest
items for purposes of the Base for Reprogramming Department
of Defense form (DD Form 1414). Each of these items must be
carried on the DD Form 1414 at the stated amount, as
specifically addressed in these materials.
Technology and Industrial Base Considerations
Section 2440 of Title 10 of the United States Code
specifically addresses the need for consideration of
industrial base when developing and implementing acquisition
programs. The Secretary of Defense is directed to comply with
10 U.S.C. 2440 as it applies to the consideration of national
technology and industrial base in the development and
implementation of acquisition plans for each major defense
acquisition program. Additionally, the Secretary of Defense
is directed to provide a report to the congressional defense
committees within 30 days of enactment of this Act on how the
Department implements Section 2440 in the major defense
acquisition programs.
KC-135 Tanker Replacement Program
On September 10, 2008, the Secretary of Defense informed
the Congress that he was terminating the solicitation for the
KC-135 tanker replacement program. After seven years of
deliberation, the Department of Defense is no closer to
providing the warfighter with a replacement for the aged KC-
135s. The Department's latest decision could delay replacing
the tankers for several more years. The timing of the
Secretary's notification made it too late for the Congress to
undertake a comprehensive review of alternatives and mandate
a way forward that would be fair to all parties involved. The
Department of Defense needs to address this serious problem
as quickly as possible. The Department of Defense should
consider any practical option that would enable the
replacement of the KC-135s expeditiously to include the
possibility of awarding competitive contracts to more than
one offeror.
In light of the termination, the bill provides $62,500,000
in Operation and Maintenance, Air Force for modest upgrades
to the KC-135s to ensure continued reliability of the fleet.
In addition, funding is provided for program office
operations, termination costs, and anticipated claims from
the offerors.
Research, Development, Test and Evaluation (RDT&E) Program Element
Codes and Budget Justification Documents
Senate Report 110-155, accompanying the Fiscal Year 2008
Department of Defense Appropriations Act, recommended several
improvements to enhance the information provided to Congress
in the RDT&E budget documentation materials. This includes
the provision of specific information about activities
conducted and accomplishments achieved with prior year
funding; information on planned activities and their costs
for the budget year at the project level; the improvement of
cross references among projects; provision of schedules that
identify key events; updates to narratives that reflect prior
years' events; and the implementation of a more informative
display of programmatic, schedule and budgetary changes.
Improvements to the quality of the RDT&E budget justification
documents are expected to be made beginning with the fiscal
year 2010 budget submission.
Reprogramming Guidance for Acquisition Accounts
The Department of Defense is directed to continue to follow
the reprogramming guidance specified in the House Report (H.
Rept. 110-279) accompanying the Fiscal Year 2008 Department
of Defense Appropriations Act. Specifically, the dollar
threshold for reprogramming funds will remain at $20,000,000
for procurement, and $10,000,000 for research, development,
test and evaluation. The Department shall continue to follow
the limitation that prior approval reprogrammings are set at
either the specified dollar threshold or 20 percent of the
procurement or research, development, test and evaluation
line, whichever is less. These thresholds are cumulative.
Therefore, if the combined value of transfers into or out of
a procurement (P-1) or research, development, test and
evaluation (R-1) line exceeds the identified threshold, the
Department of Defense must submit a prior approval
reprogramming to the congressional defense committees. In
addition, guidelines on the application of prior approval
reprogramming procedures for congressional special interest
items are established elsewhere in this explanatory
statement.
Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance
The Secretary of Defense notified the House and the Senate
Committees on Appropriations of a number of urgent
Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance (ISR) needs for
fiscal year 2009 that were not contained in the budget
request. In order to respond to these emerging requirements,
an increase of $750,000,000 is provided in operation and
maintenance, procurement, and research, development, test and
evaluation accounts. The following table includes research,
development, test and evaluation funds provided in support of
this initiative.

Comptroller is directed to continue to provide the
congressional defense committees quarterly, spreadsheet-based
DD1416 reports for service and defense-wide accounts in
titles III and IV of this Act as required in the statement of
the managers accompanying the conference report on the
Department of Defense Appropriations Act, 2006.

Aerial Canopy Sensor Delivery System
The Department of Defense Appropriations Act, 2008,
provided in Research, Development, Test and Evaluation,
Defense-Wide, $1,000,000 in Line 27, SO/LIC Advanced
Development, for Aerial Canopy Sensor Delivery System. U.S.
Special Operations Command and the Army now concur that the
proper account for funding this program is Research,
Development, Test and Evaluation, Army, Line 45, Electronic
Warfare Technology. The Secretary of Defense is directed to
initiate a reprogramming action to provide the funds to the
Army for proper execution.
Warfighter Information Network--Tactical (WIN-T)
The budget request for fiscal year 2009 contains
$414,357,000 for Warfighter Information Network--Tactical
(WIN-T) research and development. Within that amount,
$330,438,000 is to continue research and development efforts
for WIN-T Increment 3, full networking on the move. There is
concern with the lack of definitized requirements and program
costs for Increment 3. Additionally, the revised program
acquisition baseline is not expected to be completed until
almost two years after the Nunn-McCurdy breach, creating an
uncertain basis for the budget request. Therefore, the amount
proposed in the budget request has been reduced by
$20,000,000. Additionally, the Comptroller General is
directed to continue his review of the WINT program under the
guidelines set forth in Senate Report 110-155.
Tungsten/Cobalt Alloy Carcinogen Study
There is concern with the potential carcinogenic nature of
tungsten/cobalt alloys and the Army is encouraged, in
conjunction with the research community, to undertake a study
to determine if tungsten/cobalt alloys are a probable human
carcinogen in either the manufacturing or employment of
ammunition and other defense equipment.
Rock Island Arsenal
The Rock Island Arsenal is undertaking efforts to
demonstrate small scale, clean energy conversion technology
to provide an uninterruptible source of energy for potential
use at Department of Defense facilities. The Army is
encouraged to determine what environmental, economic, and
safety benefits might be achieved by this energy initiative.
Neurotoxin Exposure Treatment Parkinson's Research Program
The United States Army Medical Research and Materiel
Command (USAMRMC) is advancing research in investigating the
underlying biologic mechanisms and therapeutic interventions
of neuro-degenerative effects caused by deployment,
environmental and occupational exposures. Therefore,
$25,000,000 is recommended for the continuation of this vital
research and other neurological disorders through
collaborative work between the military, a non-profit
organization and an academic laboratory with distinguished
scientific credentials in this field.
RESEARCH, DEVELOPMENT, TEST AND EVALUATION, NAVY
For Research, Development, Test and Evaluation, Navy, funds
are to be available for fiscal year 2009, as follows:

Mine Warfare
The Mine Warfare Mission Modules onboard the Littoral
Combat Ships (LCS) will provide a significant portion of the
Navy's Mine Warfare capability. Delays in the fielding of the
LCS translate to a commensurate delay in fielding the mine
warfare capability provided by these platforms. Given that
the LCS will not be fully operational in significant numbers
until well into the next decade, the Nation cannot afford
such a delay to the mine warfare capability provided by the
associated mission modules. However, the mine warfare
capability provided by the mission modules can provide
benefit to the fleet even without the LCS platform.
Therefore, $3,800,000 is provided to the LCS mission module
development effort to research and study methods to employ
these modules independently of the LCS platform. The
Secretary of the Navy is directed to provide a report to the
congressional defense committees not later than June 30,
2009, detailing the results of this study and the plan for
the operational employment of the mine warfare mission
modules independent of the LCS.
Electromagnetic Aircraft Launching System (EMALS)
An additional $24,000,000 is provided to address cost
overruns in the Electromagnetic Aircraft Launching System
(EMALS) program. Due to continuing concerns about meeting the
schedule for integration into PCU Gerald R. Ford (CVN-78),
the Secretary of the Navy is directed to submit a report to
the congressional defense committees by April 1, 2009, which
shall contain a description of efforts to control cost and
schedule, an updated schedule for completion of research and
development efforts and integration into CVN-78, and an
assessment of aircraft launch system options for CVN-78,
including cost estimates of those options, if the EMALS
program experiences further delays.
Bone Marrow Registry
The bill includes $31,500,000 for the Department of the
Navy, to be administered by the C.W. Bill Young Marrow Donor
Recruitment and Research Program, also known as and referred
to within the Naval Medical Research Center as the Bone
Marrow Registry. Funds appropriated for the C.W. Bill Young
Marrow Donor Recruitment and Research Program shall remain
available only for the purposes for which they were
appropriated, and may only be obligated for the C.W. Bill
Young Marrow Program. This Department of Defense donor center
has recruited more than 475,000 Department of Defense
volunteers, and provides more marrow donors per week than any
other donor center in the Nation. More than 2,880
servicemembers and other Department volunteers from this
donor center have provided marrow to save the lives of
patients. The success of this national and international
life-saving program for military and civilian patients, which
now includes more than 7,000,000 potential volunteer donors
is admirable. Further, the agencies involved in contingency
planning are encouraged to continue to include the C.W. Bill
Young Marrow Donor Recruitment and Research Program in the
development and testing of their contingency plans. The
Department of Defense form (DD Form 1414) shall show this as
a congressional interest item. The Department is further
directed to release all the funds appropriated for this
purpose to the C.W. Bill Young Marrow Donor Recruitment and
Research Program within 60 days of enactment of this Act.
Joint Counter Radio-Controlled Electronic Warfare (JCREW)
The Navy has been designated as the executive agent for
JCREW 3.3 to protect personnel from improvised explosive
devices (IEDs), and is dependent upon transfer of funds from
the Joint IED Defeat Organization for critical science and
technology projects. Reliance on other sources of funding is
inconsistent with the Navy's role as executive agent for
JCREW 3.3. Therefore, the Secretary of the Navy is directed
to fund these enabling science and technology projects within
the Research, Development, Test and Evaluation, Navy account
in future budget requests.
Electric Propulsion Technology for Surface Combatants
Significant steps have been taken in developing more energy
efficient alternatives to the mechanical drive propulsion
systems currently powering Navy ships. Funding has been
provided for several years to mature electric propulsion
technologies to support current and future Navy needs, either
as an upgrade to DDG-51 or DDG-1000 class ships, or for the
next-generation cruiser. Therefore, due to the increased
flexibility, projected fuel savings and performance
enhancements provided by such technologies, the Secretary of
the Navy is directed to continue the exploration of electric
propulsion as an integrated part of its surface combatant
design and construction plan. Additionally, the Navy is
encouraged to continue the development of all-electric
technology by including funding in future Shipboard System
Component Development (Program Element 0603513N) budget
requests.
RESEARCH, DEVELOPMENT, TEST AND EVALUATION, AIR FORCE
For Research, Development, Test and Evaluation, Air Force,
funds are to be available for fiscal year 2009, as follows:

Maui Space Surveillance System (MSSS)
The bill provides an increase of $22,000,000 over the
budget request for sustainment, investment in new
technologies and initiatives, and research and development
activities at MSSS. The Air Force is directed to base its
overhead charges only on the amount requested. None of the
increases provided here shall be subject to Air Force taxes
or withholds. Furthermore, research funds should be allocated
by Air Force officials on-site to local programs that offer
the greatest potential return and merit.
Space Major Force Program
In the Fiscal Year 2008 Department of Defense
Appropriations Act, the Secretary of Defense was directed to
create a major force program category for space for the
future years defense program of the Department of Defense.
Further clarification toward this intent is required. The
virtual major force program has been an established measure
for several years and it is considered an acceptable
foundation for development of the final space major force
program inventory. The current virtual major force program
includes space-based assets and the associated non-space,
command, control, communications, and intelligence assets
supporting the space systems.
Space systems are not just the satellites resident in the
exo-atmosphere butalso include the associated terminal
programs. In the past, these terminal programs were
desynchronized from the space platforms due to funding
shortfalls and schedule delays. In the future, a tighter
coupling of these programs is required. Therefore, these
terminal programs must be included in the space major force
program inventory. The Department of Defense is directed to
implement the final space major force program prior to the
submission of the fiscal year 2011 budget. Furthermore, six
months after enactment of this Act, the Secretary of Defense
is directed to report to the congressional defense committees
the status of the population and development of the space
major force program.
Missile Warning
The current Defense Support Program constellation of
satellites is aging and needs to be replaced. The Air Force
has been pursuing the Space Based Infrared Satellite System--
geosynchronous (SBIRS-GEO) component for over a decade and
the development is almost complete. A sister system, Space
Based Infrared Satellite System--highly elliptical orbit
(SBIRS-HEO) has launched, successfully initialized, and is
providing extraordinary data, well beyond expectations.
However, the SBIRS-HEO component is not fully integrated into
the ground system, so the data products are not fully
exploited. Therefore, the bill includes $15,000,000 above the
budget request to be used for increased SBIRS-HEO ground
integration and data exploitation.
Furthermore, to date the Department of Defense has not
planned for additional SBIRS-GEO satellites. In order to
avoid a production break and the associated costs, the
Department of Defense is directed to begin procurement of the
fourth and fifth SBIRS-GEO satellites in the fiscal year 2010
budget request.
National Security Space Office
The original intent of the National Security Space Office
(NSSO) was to provide the Executive Agent for Space with an
analysis team that would make recommendations to the
priorities, capabilities and budgets of both the Department
of Defense and intelligence community space programs. In
recent years, the NSSO has lost the support of the National
Reconnaissance Office, which has provided no funding for the
NSSO, and the Air Force and other Department of Defense
organizations have used the NSSO as personal staff. The
Secretary of Defense and the Director of National
Intelligence are directed to assess the roles and
responsibilities of the NSSO and to report back to the
congressional defense oversight committees by May 15, 2009.
Coal to Liquid Fuels
The Congress understands that the Air Force is strongly
committed to an energy strategy that looks to certify their
entire fleet of aircraft on a synthetic fuel blend by 2011,
with the intent to purchase 50 percent of their aviation fuel
used in the United States in the form of a synthetic fuel
blend by 2016. Part of this strategy involves examining at
the feasibility, cost effectiveness, and environmental
impacts of building coal-to-liquid fuel (CTL) plants,
utilizing enhanced-use leasing authorities. It is envisioned
that these plants would be built in strategic locations,
where there are abundant coal and water resources to operate
these plants. Consistent with the Air Force vision and
availability of resources necessary for a CTL plant, a total
of $10,000,000 is provided only to support Air Force efforts
in siting and contracting for such a plant on Eielson Air
Force Base. This funding is split between Operation and
Maintenance, Air Force, and Research, Development, Test and
Evaluation, Air Force accounts.
The Secretary of the Air Force is directed to submit a
report to the congressional defense committees no later than
April 1, 2009, which provides the framework for a joint
partnership between the Department of Defense and a private
developer, to include an associated milestone schedule, a
preliminary design, engineering studies, and the plan to
accomplish any required environmental work.
RESEARCH, DEVELOPMENT, TEST AND EVALUATION, DEFENSE-WIDE
For Research, Development, Test and Evaluation, Defense-
Wide, funds are to be available for fiscal year 2009, as

Energy Strategy for the Department Of Defense
Achieving improved energy efficiency, which includes
reduced consumption, expanded sources of supply as well as a
reduction in our dependence on foreign oil are possibly the
greatest national security challenges facing our nation.
In 2006, according to the Defense Science Board, the
Department of Defense consumed 110,000,000 barrels of premium
fuel and 3,800,000,000 kilowatt hours of electricity at a
cost of $13,600,000,000. Of this amount, $10,000,000,000 was
spent on fuel for combat and combat-related systems, and
another $3,600,000,000 to power the Department of Defense's
infrastructure. The major challenges to fuel efficiency are
operational, tactical and fixed based.
The most recent Defense Science Board Task Force is but the
latest in a long line of reports addressing the necessity for
a reduction in the fuel burden. The 2001 Defense Science
Board Task Force report entitled, ``More Capable Warfighting
through Reduced Fuel Burden,'' stated that 70 percent of the
tonnage the Army ships into battle is associated with fuel
logistics and that multiple technologies were available at
all levels of maturity that could reduce demand. Furthermore,
it advocated ``including fuel efficiency as a key performance
parameter in all operational requirements documents and
capstone requirements documents.'' It was not until 2007 that
the Department issued a memorandum making it policy to
include the fully burdened cost of delivered energy in trade
off analyses conducted for all tactical systems and
identified only three pilot programs.
While the Department is the leading consumer of fuel in the
U.S., the Air Force is the leading consumer of fuel within
the Department. The Air Force has been in the forefront on
alternative fuels and is on the path to qualify all Air Force
aircraft on a coal-based jet fuel by 2012. The challenge in
using coal-based jet fuels is directly dependent upon carbon
capture and sequestration to mitigate CO2
emissions.
The Department is provided $20,000,000 to initiate research
into carbon capture and sequestration technology for the
future production of coal-based jet fuel. The Department is
encouraged to budget for the continued research of this
initiative in the fiscal year 2010 request. The Secretary of
Defense is directed to provide the congressional defense
committees with specific plans for utilizing these funds to
include specific details and goals not later than 90 days
after enactment of this Act.
Similarly, in the fixed base, there is a near total
reliance on the commercial power grid. Efforts to raise the
issue and support alternative and/or renewable energy sources
for the Department of Defense have been sporadic at best.
The Department of Defense's scattered efforts to address
the energy issue throughout its organization is coupled with
minimal centralized policy and oversight. The Defense Science
Board Task Force went on to say, ``decisions that create
energy demand are dispersed organizationally across the
Department and throughout the services. There is no unifying
vision, strategy, or metrics or governance structure with
enterprise-wide energy in its portfolio.''
The Department of Defense can no longer rely on such
haphazard approaches to energy. Our future national security
and military readiness demands swift action guided by a clear
mandate.
The Secretary of Defense is encouraged to appoint a senior
official to be responsible for energy efficiency. Further,
the Department is directed to address comprehensively and
submit a report, not later than June 15, 2009, regarding
energy efficiency and how it will be given greater importance
and weight in all aspects of the Department's resource
allocation process.
Transformational Medical Technologies Initiative (TMTI)
The fiscal year 2009 budget request includes $240,900,000
for the Transformational Medical Technologies Initiative
(TMTI) in program elements 0601384BP, 0602384BP and 0603384BP
of the Chemical and Biological Defense Program, an increase
of $105,000,000 over the amount appropriated in fiscal year
2008. Of the amount requested for fiscal year 2009, more than
half, or $123,900,000, is requested for new start projects,
an increase of $78,300,000 over the amount provided for new
projects in fiscal year 2008. This growth for new starts is
excessive at this juncture in the program and the request for
new start projects in fiscal year 2009 is reduced by
$70,000,000. The Special Assistant, Chemical and Biological
Defense is directed to provide the annual TMTI report (as
detailed in Senate Report 109--292) with the submission of
the fiscal year 2010 budget request.
Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA)
The fiscal year 2009 budget request for DARPA is
$3,285,569,000, an increase of $326,493,000, more than 10
percent, over the fiscal year 2008 appropriated program of
$2,959,076,000. In recent years, DARPA has repeatedly
underexecuted its funded program level, executing a fiscal
year 2005 program that was nine percent below the
appropriated program and a fiscal year 2006 program that was
twelve percent below the appropriated program. Based on
program execution to date, DARPA will likely continue that
trend for the fiscal year 2007 and 2008 programs. While
DARPA's continued underexecution can partially be explained
by its fiscally responsible management approach of
withholding funds from projects that fail to demonstrate
progress, doubts exist about DARPA's ability to responsibly
manage such a large increase. Therefore, the bill provides
$3,142,229,000, a reduction of $143,340,000 from the request.
The Director of DARPA is directed to provide to the
congressional defense committees not later than 60 days after
enactment of this Act a report that details by program
element and project the application of undistributed
reductions made in this Act.
The conference reports accompanying the fiscal year 2007
and 2008 Department of Defense Appropriations Acts cited the
lack of individual project level detail provided in DARPA's
budget justification materials. While the high-risk nature of
many DARPA projects makes it hard to pinpoint detailed
schedules, there is concern about the lack of detail provided
for individual projects regarding their scope, notional
schedule and overall funding requirements. Moreover, project
funding is often adjusted from one year to the next without
justification. DARPA is directed to provide greater
programmatic detail for its projects in its justification
materials beginning with the fiscal year 2010 budget request.
Further, DARPA is encouraged to continue to pursue transition
plans for all of its Advanced Technology Development
programs. The Director of DARPA is directed to submit with
the fiscal year 2010 budget submission the report on
transitions that was initiated in fiscal year 2009.
New Starts in the Year of Execution
The fiscal year 2009 budget request includes no less than
$176,770,000 in the Research, Development, Test and
Evaluation, Defense-Wide account for new start programs that
will be selected and initiated in fiscal year 2009, an
increase of $61,766,000 from the amount above the fiscal year
2007 level. While there is awareness of the need for certain
programmatic flexibility to address urgent unfunded
requirements, this level of funding is unjustified,
particularly in light of the fact that several projects
continue to be resourced from these funds over a sustained
period of time without transitioning to funded programs of
record. Additionally, congressional notification of programs
initiated with these funds has been lagging and inconsistent.
Therefore, the bill reduces the request for these programs by
ten percent.
Joint Report on Coal-to-Liquid Fuels
The Secretary of Defense, in coordination with the
Department of Energy's Office of Fossil Energy is directed to
submit a report to the congressional defense committees no
later than March 31, 2009, on alternatives to reduce the life
cycle emissions of coal-to-liquid fuels and potential uses of
coal-to-liquid fuels to meet the Department of Defense's
mobility energy requirements. The report shall examine, at a
minimum, the following: the potential clean energy
alternatives for powering the coal-to-liquids conversion
processes, including nuclear, solar, and wind energies; the
alternatives for reducing carbon emissions during the coal-
to-liquids conversion processes; and the military utility of
coal-to-liquid fuels for military operations and for use by
expeditionary forces compared with the military utility and
life cycle emissions of mobile, in-theater synthetic fuel
processes.
Infrared Focal Plane Arrays
Infrared Focal Plane Arrays (IFPA) are the key to infrared
sensor systems widely used by the military. New and improved
military capabilities will require the development of new and
more complex arrays. Recent reports reveal that the United
States, which has traditionally held the lead in IFPA
technology, is falling behind. This poses the very real
threat that the United States government could lose control
of this technology. The Department of Defense is directed to
review developments in this critical area and report on the
status of the United States' competitive position, and if
warranted, provide a plan of action to remedy the situation.
This report should be submitted no later than 90 days after
enactment of this Act.
Climate Change and National Security
Climate change is a key environmental issue that has
national security implications. The Department of Defense
should assess the impact of climate change on our coasts,
water resources, and other geographic and environmental
components of the United States national security. The
Department of Defense should also establish a baseline set of
indicators for assessing climate change and a set of tools
for measuring its future impact on those aspects of climate
change that could affect our national security.
Missile Defense Agency (MDA) Reporting Requirements and Justification
Materials
The budget information provided by the MDA does not allow
sufficient oversight of
[[Page 21460]]
the Ballistic Missile Defense programs. The programs change
significantly from the time the budget is submitted to the
time funding is appropriated, making it extremely difficult
to understand what is actually in the budget on an annual
basis. The justification materials should no longer be
presented in the block structure format, but rather by fiscal
year for each activity within the program element. The
documents must provide more detailed schedules, quantities,
and break-outs of funding for each activity.
Past Congresses have established a framework of laws that
require program and cost reporting to Congress to help
exercise this oversight. The MDA is directed to report
according to the existing acquisition laws to improve
accountability and transparency of the programs.
Near-Term Missile Defense Programs
In order to execute a balanced program, the Missile Defense
Agency (MDA) must continue to field the near-term missile
defense programs, primarily Ground-Based Missile Defense
(GMD), AEGIS Ballistic Missile Defense (BMD), and Theater
High Area Altitude Defense (THAAD) programs. Funding for
fielding these programs, however, is sacrificed each year to
pay for the development of futuristic missile defense
programs. Therefore, the bill reduces funding for several of
the far-term programs, such as the Multiple Kill Vehicle, the
Airborne Laser, and Space Test Bed and provides an additional
$120,000,000 for enhancements to the GMD, AEGIS and THAAD
programs. The MDA is directed to provide a report to the
congressional defense committees by December 1, 2008, on how
those additional funds will be allocated to the programs.
The Joint Capability Mix (JCM) study, conducted by the
Joint Staff, concluded that U.S. combatant commanders need
about twice as many Standard Missile-3 and THAAD interceptors
as currently planned to meet minimum operational requirements
for defending against short and medium-range ballistic
missiles. The MDA's highest priority should be to achieve the
minimum levels of interceptor inventories identified in the
JCM study and the Department of Defense should budget
accordingly in its fiscal year 2010 budget submission.
European Capability--Third Site
Three separate program elements are recommended for the
European Missile Defense sites in order to provide adequate
visibility of these initiatives and to ensure that funding
for the Ground-Based Missile Defense, Sensors, and Command
and Control program elements are not adversely impacted by
the European sites.
The bill provides $467,150,000 for European missile defense
and development and testing of the two-stage interceptor. The
first program element provides $363,250,000 for the
development and testing of the two-stage interceptors and the
interceptor site planned for Poland. The bill provides
$182,900,000 for development and testing of the two-stage
interceptors; $19,200,000 for long-lead components for two-
stage interceptors; and $65,500,000 for site planning, design
and activation. Due to the delay in ratification of a missile
defense agreement with Poland, funding for missile field
equipment is reduced by $82,550,000 and communications by
$13,100,000, half of the request.
The second program element provides $76,800,000 for the
European Midcourse Radar (EMR) to be located in the Czech
Republic. The bill provides $15,800,000 for site planning,
design and activation, but reduces funding for sensor
equipment by $15,000,000 and communications by $6,000,000 due
to at least a three month delay in ratification of an
agreement with the Czech government in fiscal year 2009.
The third program element provides $27,100,000 for the
European Global Engagement Manager and U.S. Communications
for the European sites. Due to the delay in ratifying
agreements with the European host sites, the request is
reduced by $14,000,000. The bill provides no funding for the
European Forward Based Radar (AN-TPY-2) since a location has
not been determined for the site.
These estimates do not include costs for barracks, family
housing or any other costs normally associated with
infrastructure of a cantonment area of a military facility.
Also, the estimate does not include personnel costs for
manning the facilities.
Space Tracking and Surveillance System (STSS)
It is premature for the Missile Defense Agency to move
forward with a follow-on STSS constellation until after a
successful launch and thorough analysis of the STSS
demonstrator data. No funding is provided to begin work on an
STSS follow-on constellation, an STSS gap filler, space
sensor research and development, or any other space
demonstration program.
Flight Test Delays and Cancellations
As one of the largest research, development, test and
evaluation programs in the Department of Defense, the Missile
Defense Agency (MDA) has established a pattern of cost,
schedule and performance problems. Tests were delayed or
cancelled in fiscal years 2006, 2007 and 2008 and it is not
unreasonable to assume that some of the tests planned for
fiscal year 2009 will likely slip into subsequent fiscal
years. The MDA annually conducts operational testing of the
Ballistic Missile Defense System through a series of planned
tests which are outlined in the Integrated Master Test Plan
(IMTP). The numbers reflected in the IMTP only address
successful flights of a missile. Rates of delay,
cancellations or changes that occur annually in the testing
programs and which affect the programming and budgeting of
future years are not addressed.
In fiscal years 2006 through 2008, the MDA conducted
approximately 85 percent of the planned tests in the same
fiscal year as originally scheduled. The MDA's fiscal year
2009 test schedule reflects 13 flight tests with 77 percent
of these tests scheduled for the third and fourth quarters of
2009. The fiscal year 2009 test schedule contains two major
flight tests to support Ground-Based Midcourse Defense (FTG-
05 and FTG-06). Combined, these tests cost approximately
$300,000,000. Department of Defense officials have expressed
concern that FTG-06 will not have a target vehicle to support
the test within fiscal year 2009. Therefore, the Missile
Defense Agency is directed to report to the congressional
defense committees by January 15, 2009, on the state of the
testing program and what funding shortfalls exist, if any.
Targets
The Missile Defense Agency (MDA) has renewed its focus and
commitment to the target program and must continue this
momentum in order to achieve optimal production and
deliveries. In order to ensure that the program office has
the proper oversight of all funding for the targets program,
the bill transfers the entire request for targets from the
individual program elements to the Test and Target program
element.
The bill provides an additional $32,000,000 above the
budget request for the flexible family of targets to initiate
an inventory build up of critical long lead hardware items.
However, there are additional funding shortfalls for targets
that need to be addressed in fiscal year 2009. The MDA should
submit an above threshold reprogramming to the congressional
defense committees to ensure that this important component of
missile defense testing is adequately funded. In addition,
MDA should adequately address shortfalls in its out-year
budget requests for targets to continue inventory buildup to
ensure proper support of the rigorous testing program planned
beginning in fiscal year 2010.
Terminal High Altitude Area Defense (THAAD)
The bill transfers $65,000,000 from Program Element
0603881C to Procurement, Defense-Wide, Line 95, as identified
by the Missile Defense Agency (MDA) to recover schedule and
mitigate production line gaps for Fire Unit #3 and #4. The
MDA is directed to identify additional funds to ensure
production line continuity.
Standard Missile-3 (SM-3) Interceptors
The bill transfers $57,100,000 from Program Element
0603892C to Procurement, Defense-Wide, Line 95, for advance
procurement of SM-3 Block 1A interceptors.
Aegis Ballistic Missile Defense
Management of the kill vehicle for the Standard Missile-
Block II is being done by the Kill Vehicle program office
instead of the AEGIS program. The AEGIS program has had a
long history of success working with the Navy to manage the
entire development and fielding of the Standard Missile, and
any change in management could result in a delay to the
program. Therefore, the AEGIS program is directed to manage
all current and future Standard Missile development and
upgrades for ballistic missile defense, including the kill
vehicles.
Space-Based Interceptor Study
The bill provides $5,000,000 to support the study outlined
in section 236 of S. 3001, the National Defense Authorization
Act for Fiscal Year 2009.
Operational Test and Evaluation, Defense
For Operational Test and Evaluation, Defense, funds are to
be available for fiscal year 2009, as follows:

provided for fiscal year 2009.
[[Page 21465]]
[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TH24SE08.237
[[Page 21466]]
Ship Financing Guarantee Program
The bill provides $48,000,000 for the ship financing loan
guarantee program administered by the Maritime
Administration. The Secretary of the Navy is directed to work
in conjunction with the Administrator of the Maritime
Administration to ensure this funding is used for the loan
guarantee program established under chapter 537 of title 46,
United States Code.
TITLE VI--OTHER DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE PROGRAMS
For Other Department of Defense Programs, funds are to be
available for fiscal year 2009, as follows:

Defense Health Program Reprogramming Procedures
There is concern regarding the transfer, lack of proper
budgeting and the reprogramming of funds from Direct (or In-
house) Care to other budget activities within operation and
maintenance. To limit transfers and enhance Congressional
oversight within the Defense Health Program operation and
maintenance account, language is included in the accompanying
bill which limits the funds available for Private Sector Care
under the TRICARE program subject to prior approval
reprogramming procedures. The bill language and accompanying
statement should not be interpreted by the Department as
limiting the amount of funds that may be transferred to the
Direct Care system.
In addition, the services are not properly budgeting for
actual execution levels among the budget activity groups.
Therefore, the Direct Care System funding will continue to be
designated as a congressional special interest item. Any
transfer of funds from the Direct (or In-house) Care budget
activity into the Private Sector Care budget activity or any
other budget activity shall require the Department of Defense
to follow prior approval reprogramming procedures.
The Navy and the Air Force budget requests for In-House
Care are in excess of actual requirements. Therefore, funds
have been transferred from Navy and Air Force In-House Care
to other budget activities to reflect estimated funding
requirements.
In addition, the Department of Defense is directed to
review budget execution data for all of the Defense Health
Program accounts and to adequately reflect changes to the
budget activities requested by the services in future budget
submissions beginning in fiscal year 2010.
Private Sector Care Reduction
The bill has reduced the Private Sector Care Budget
Activity Group by $200,000,000 as a result of routine health
care for servicemembers and their families returning to the
military treatment facilities from private sector care. The
actual private sector care funding required in fiscal year
2008 was $200,000,000 below the budget request, as
demonstrated by prior approval reprogramming (FY08-11)
submitted to the congressional defense committees by the
Department of Defense.
Carryover
The bill provides a one percent carryover for fiscal year
2009 operation and maintenance. The Assistant Secretary of
Defense for Health Affairs is directed to submit to the
congressional defense committees within 30 days after
enactment of this Act a detailed spending plan for the fiscal
year 2008 designated carryover funds.
The Assistant Secretary of Defense for Health Affairs is
also directed to submit justification to the congressional
defense committees not later than January 15, 2009, as to the
continuing need to provide carryover in future budgets. In
addition, the Department shall, not fewer than 15 days prior
to executing the carryover funds, notify the congressional
defense committees in writing of the details of any such
obligation.
Strategic Communications
In 2007, the Assistant Secretary of Defense for Health
Affairs (ASD(HA)) and the Military Health System (MHS)
established an office for MHS Strategic Communications to
address and respond to the various issues related to wounded
warrior and the MHS. According to the Department of Defense,
this new office was created to coordinate with the
communications offices within the MHS and the services to
serve as a hub for the MHS to respond to questions and
interviews from the press, to manage and maintain the MHS web
site, and to develop communication products and messages. In
addition to creating and staffing this new office, the
Department recently awarded a $3,900,000 contract to provide
contracted personnel and to advise the Director, MHS
Strategic Communications office in the execution of the MHS
Strategic Communications Plan. There is great concern that
the services provided through this contract are duplicative
to the roles and responsibilities of the staff employed in
this office. Therefore, the Assistant Secretary of Defense
for Health Affairs and the Under Secretary of Defense for
Personnel and Readiness are directed to provide a report to
the congressional defense committees, not later than March 6,
2009, that details the roles, responsibilities, staffing, and
resources of the strategic communications office and a
detailed justification of this contract. The Department is
further restricted from extending this contract without the
approval of the defense subcommittees of the Committees on
Appropriations of the House and the Senate.
Traumatic Brain Injury and Psychological Health
Traumatic brain injury (TBI) and psychological health
issues have emerged as a significant cause of death to the
war fighters in Iraq and Afghanistan. Whether mild, moderate
or severe brain injury, the level of assessment and standard
of care provided to the war fighter is in need of
enhancement. Diagnosis, treatment, and rehabilitation must be
at a level to ensure the best possible outcome. To this end,
the bill includes $300,000,000 above the budget request to
address all levels of brain injury and psychological health
issues that servicemembers and their families have
experienced during the Global War on Terror. The Department
is expected to request any additional resources for these
requirements in the upcoming supplemental request for fiscal
year 2009.
The Department continues to work diligently to establish a
center of excellence to provide specialized treatment and
rehabilitation for brain injured troops, but much more is
needed and the Department is expected to continue to provide
the necessary care and treatment to servicemembers and their
families. The vast majority of disabled troops will
ultimately return to their home communities, which may be far
removed from specialized centers. Therefore, the
identification of local services is crucial to an appropriate
rehabilitation plan and the Department of Veterans Affairs
and military centers should coordinate with civilian centers
to guarantee that optimal treatments and assistance are
available throughout the country.
The Department is aware of gaps within TBI and
psychological treatment methods that need to be addressed.
The Department is expected to continue working with the
Department of Veterans Affairs, Department of Health and
Human Services, academia and industry to focus on the
research and treatment necessary to address the gaps that
have been identified.
An area of particular interest is the provision of
appropriate and accessible counseling to servicemembers and
their families who live in locations that are not close to
military treatment facilities, other Military Health System
health facilities or TRICARE providers. Web-based delivery of
counseling has significant potential to offer counseling to
personnel who otherwise might not be able to access it.
Therefore, the Department is directed to establish and use a
web-based Clinical Mental Health Services Program as a way to
deliver critical clinical mental health services to
servicemembers and their families in rural areas. Further,
the Department is directed to report to the congressional
defense committees on how they have incorporated a web-based
program within the Defense Center of Excellence (DCoE) and
its entities by March 16, 2009.
Funding provided in this bill is also to be used for the
development and operation of the DCoE and the various
centers, programs and initiatives that fall within its
purview and resources to support the service medical
departments as they continue to build and expand their TBI
and psychological health capacity through initiatives and
many supportive programs. Other initiatives, such as
telehealth, clinical standards supporting TBI and
psychological health, and training and education outreach
should also be included.
Funding has also been provided to continue medical research
and development on TBI and psychological health. The
following research topics are recommended for consideration
under this program: studies of mental health disorders and
Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) to include
neuropsychiatric studies, biochemical mechanisms that
underlie human emotional reactions to combat stress and
resulting clinical disorders, metrics for mental health
assessment and methods to evaluate and improve PTSD
rehabilitation efforts; studies of Traumatic Brain Injury
(TBI) including basic research on neural injury treatments,
cell replacement and regrowth strategies, specific therapies
to prevent and reverse spinal cord and other neuro-traumatic
damage, pharmaceutical interventions to stimulate neural
circuits, ``activity-based'' physical therapy, and extended
rehabilitation focused on impairments in vision and cognitive
functioning; clinical research of blast-related cell damage
and the resulting effects on neurological response; 3D models
of IED blast waves to develop equipment to mitigate injury to
service members; a fully automated, self contained,
disposable chip to diagnose TBI at the point of onset; DA-EEG
assessment and MRI quantization to allow an accurate
assessment of TBI; computational approaches to integrate
global transcriptomics and proteomics information to
indentify the biological networks altered following TBI;
studies of PTSD and/or TBI including basic research in
neurorehabilitation, the integration of informatics, and
advanced computational research to analyze brain tissue and
activities, the use of advanced neuroimaging, behavioral and
genetic information to develop biomarkers, diagnostics, and
treatments for semi-acute and chronic injury stages. Funding
provided for research and development shall incorporate all
aspects of research in the areas of TBI and psychological
health by conducting basic science and translational research
for the purposes of understanding the etiology and developing
preventive interventions and new treatments and evaluating
the outcomes to arrive at best-practice solutions. This
requirement includes incorporating training, combat theater
operations, and post deployment evidence-based preventive and
early intervention measures, practices, or procedures to
reduce the likelihood that personnel in combat will develop
PTSD or other stress-related conditions or sustain traumatic
brain injuries.
[[Page 21474]]
Increasing the Availability and Access to Mental Health Services
There is continued concern with the Department of Defense
regarding mental health care for servicemembers returning
from Operation Enduring Freedom and Operation Iraqi Freedom.
Reports outlining gaps in coverage and poor access to care,
especially in large rural and urban areas that support a
large population of returning servicemembers are troubling.
In addition to the negative impact on servicemembers and
their families, the failure to appropriately provide these
services places a heavy financial and infrastructure burden
on communities and local governments.
Therefore, the Department of Defense is directed to make
funds available for projects and programs throughout the
United States that (1) serve a high population of returning
servicemembers; (2) encompass both large rural and urban
areas; and (3) have an existing infrastructure that utilizes
a combination of local mental health associations, community
support networks, private sector mental health care provider
networks, and universities for the purpose of enhancing the
local access, delivery, education and outreach of mental
health services for servicemembers and their families.
Diabetes Research
The growth of type I and type II diabetes in the United
States, specifically the growing number of children, teens
and young adults is of concern. The health care expenditures
associated with treatment of this disease are drastically
increasing. Without proper medical care, monitoring and
patient education, diabetes results in health consequences
and eventually death. Nutrition, early detection, diagnosis
and treatment are essential to alleviate this trend.
The bill provides $15,500,000 for the Air Force Diabetes
Program. Of the funds provided, $4,000,000 shall be for type
I diabetes and $11,500,000 shall be for type II diabetes.
Within the $11,500,000 provided for type II diabetes,
$8,500,000 shall not be obligated until a new strategic plan,
including a full estimate of the program by year has been
submitted to and approved by the Air Force Surgeon General.
The Air Force Surgeon General is directed to review the
Diabetes Program on a monthly basis to ensure that all goals
and milestones are reached prior to obligation of funding
provided in fiscal year 2009. Prior to obligating funds
within the limitation specified above, the Air Force Surgeon
General shall submit a report to the congressional defense
committees which provides specific details for all funding
provided for this program.
Finally, the Diabetes Program is directed to look at new
and innovative ways such as metabolic research, physiology
and holistic approaches that would be beneficial, while
working in conjunction with the current program, to the
military and civilian populations.
Peer-Reviewed Cancer Research Program
The bill provides $16,000,000 for a peer-reviewed cancer
research program that would research cancers not addressed in
the breast, prostate and ovarian cancer research programs
currently executed by the Department of Defense, and
specifically the U.S. Army Medical Research and Materiel
Command (USAMRMC).
The funds provided are directed to be used to conduct
research in the following areas: $4,000,000 for research of
melanoma and other skin cancers as related to deployments of
servicemembers to areas of high exposure; $2,000,000 for
research of pediatric brain tumors within the field of
childhood cancer research; $8,000,000 for genetic cancer
research and its relation to exposure to the various
environments that are unique to a military lifestyle; and
$2,000,000 for non-invasive cancer ablation research into
non-invasive cancer treatment including selective targeting
with nano-particles.
The funds provided under the Peer-Reviewed Cancer Research
Program shall be used only for the purposes listed above. The
Department of Defense is directed to provide a report by
March 16, 2009, to the congressional defense committees on
the status of this new Peer-Reviewed Cancer Research Program
as to the relevance of this type of research for
servicemembers and their families.
Warriors in Transition
Fiscal year 2008 has proven that the military's system for
housing, treating, transitioning and integrating soldiers
after injury is extremely challenged. The problems occurred
on many levels from failed infrastructure, rehabilitative
care, and administrative process, to policy incongruities
between the Department of Defense and the services. Warriors
in transition are defined as soldiers that meet the
qualifications for medical hold, medical holdover or active
duty medical extension, and active component soldiers who
require a medical evaluation board or have medical needs
requiring more than six months of treatment.
It is perplexing that this situation continues despite all
of the effort expended to prevent it. Therefore, the bill
provides an additional $240,000,000 to the $319,000,000
within Base Operations for facilities sustainment,
restoration and modernization for the Army, Navy and Air
Force, to continue improving the facilities that care for our
servicemembers and their families.
The Secretary of Defense is directed to report to the
congressional defense committees by March 16, 2009, on how
the Department is executing the funding provided and that the
funding is being used for the highest priorities as submitted
by the services. Additional resources have been provided to
the services in the past and the Department must make
adjustments to budget submissions to reflect these
requirements of the Military Health System.
The above issues, coupled with the increasing number of
soldiers entering the disability process, have adversely
affected the capability to timely meet the needs of both the
soldiers and the services. The process of warrior transition
will continued to be followed and the Secretary of Defense is
directed to report quarterly to the congressional defense
committees on the status of warrior transition improvements
and requirements.
Vision Research
The Department of the Army is continually assessing new
technologies and therapies to address the ocular issues of
servicemembers. Current research targets the causes, effects,
and treatment of eye damage and diseases that, despite their
different mechanisms and pathogenesis, all have a common end
result: degeneration of the critical components of the eye
and impairment or loss of vision. In order to implement
therapeutic strategies to prevent or treat visual problems
common to combat soldiers, the Army needs to develop and
validate compounds and strategies. Therefore, the bill
provides $4,000,000 for vision research and directs the Army
to target the various causes, effects and treatment of visual
injury resulting from exposures to the elements during combat
operations, and damage from explosive devices. This type of
research will ultimately be used to ensure and sustain combat
readiness.
Peer-Reviewed Lung Cancer Research
The bill includes $20,000,000 for lung cancer research.
Lung cancer is the most lethal of all cancers taking more
lives each year than all the other major cancers combined.
Furthermore, the five-year survival rate for lung cancer
remains 15 percent and a major challenge is that 70 percent
of the diagnoses are late stage. Military personnel have
heightened exposure to lung cancer carcinogens. These funds
shall be for competitive research and the establishment of a
tissue bank. Priority shall be given to the development of
the integrated components to identify, treat and manage early
curable lung cancer. The Army is expected to provide a plan
for these funds and to include Walter Reed Army Medical
Center in the formulation of this plan. The plan shall be
submitted to the congressional defense committees 120 days
after enactment of this Act.
Spinal Cord Injury Medical Research and Treatment
Spinal cord injuries are one of the many serious wounds
resulting from conflicts in Iraq and Afghanistan that require
many levels of research and treatment. Significant funding
has been provided for research and treatment for neuro-
traumatic wounds. However, given the complexity of these
types of injuries and the steep learning curve associated
with establishing effective treatment regimes, there is much
more to be done.
For the coming years, research into regenerating damaged
spinal cords and improving rehabilitation therapies offers
real promise for enhancing the long-term care of wounded
soldiers. The bill provides $35,000,000 to establish a
competitive, peer-reviewed spinal cord injury research and
treatment program. The Secretary of Defense is directed to
submit a report to the congressional defense committees not
later than 120 days after enactment of this Act that
describes the criteria to be used to determine how these
funds are to be allocated.
Peer-Reviewed Medical Research Program
The bill provides $50,000,000 for a Peer-Reviewed Medical
Research Program. The Secretary of Defense is directed, in
conjunction with the Service Surgeons General, to select
medical research projects of clear scientific merit and
direct relevance to military health. Research areas
considered under this funding are restricted to: Alcoholism,
Autoimmune Diseases, Blood Cancer, Childhood Asthma, Drug
Abuse, Epilepsy, Kidney Cancer, Listeria Vaccine for
infectious disease and cancer, Lupus, Mesothelioma, Molecular
Signatures in Tumors, Neuroblastoma, Osteoporosis and related
bone disease, Paget's Disease, Pediatric Cancer, Polycystic
Kidney Disease, Social Work Research, Tinnitus, and West Nile
Virus Vaccine. Additional funding provided under the Peer-
Reviewed Medical Research Program shall be devoted only to
the purposes listed above.
U.S. Army Medical Research Institute for Infectious Diseases (USAMRIID)
The community remains concerned over the Army's planned
expansion of bio-safety level 3 and 4 laboratories at the
U.S. Army Medical Research Institute for Infectious Diseases
(USAMRIID) at Fort Detrick, Maryland. Though the Army has
completed the
[[Page 21475]]
National Environmental Policy Act process to assess the
impact of the expansion on the environment, significant
concerns continue to exist in the local community as to
whether the assessments of potential health and safety risks
and the strategies to mitigate those risks are sufficient.
The Secretary of the Defense is directed to enter into an
arrangement with the National Academy of Sciences under which
the Academy shall carry out a study to evaluate the analyses
of health and safety risks to the surrounding community
conducted as part of National Environmental Policy Act
process for the planned expansion of bio-safety level 3 and
level 4 labs of the USAMRIID, to be completed no later than
March 1, 2010. The Academy shall submit to the congressional
defense committees a report on the study at the same time
that such report is submitted to the Secretary of the
Defense.
TRI-Service Nursing Research Program
The bill includes $6,400,000 to continue the Tri-Service
Nursing Research Program. The Department of Defense is urged
to include this program in future budget requests. This
program provides funding for peer-reviewed research studies
conducted by active duty and reserve military nurses on
topics of military nursing that might not be competitive in
other funding venues. This program is an essential tool for
the retention of our military nurses. The Assistant Secretary
of Defense for Health Affairs, in conjunction with the
Service Surgeons General and the Nursing Corps Chiefs are
directed to provide a report to the congressional defense
committees, by April 25, 2009, that details the number and
topic areas of research proposals submitted and funded and a
detailed accounting of the entire program, including
administrative costs, overhead and travel.
Centers of Excellence at WRAMC/WRNMMC
This bill includes $40,000,000 for the following Centers of
Excellence at the current Walter Reed Army Medical Center:
Breast Care, Gynecologic, Prostate, Pain and Neuroscience,
and Integrated Cardiac Health (Wellness). These Centers are
in the forefront in the advancement of modern medical care.
It is encouraging that the Department has recognized the
importance of these Centers to the welfare of our
servicemembers and their families and has included them in
the construction plans for the new Walter Reed National
Military Medical Center.
Therefore, the Secretary of Defense is directed to include
funding for these centers beginning with the fiscal year 2010
budget submission.
Life-Preserving Blood Technologies
There are blood technologies that hold great promise to
increase survival rates of our wounded military and improve
standard of care. The Assistant Secretary of Defense for
Health Affairs, in consultation with the Service Surgeons
General, is directed to submit a report to the congressional
defense committees no later than March 30, 2009, that
provides an assessment of the feasibility and advisability of
accelerating research, development, and fielding of blood
technologies that will improve the capacity to save lives of
members of the Armed Forces receiving combat medical care.
The technologies to be addressed by the report shall include,
but not be limited to, extended life red blood cells,
cryogenic storage of white blood cells, cryo-preserved
platelets, hemoglobin-based oxygen carriers, and freeze dried
plasma.
COHORT/ACIMS
The COHORT/ACIMS project has the potential to benefit
future systems integration within the Military Health System
and its connectivity with the Veterans Administration.
Continuation and integration of this innovative and timely
technology should be made a priority by the Chief Information
Officers of the Air Force Surgeon Generals Office and Health
Affairs. The Department of Defense is urged to provide the
necessary resources to continue this valuable development
effort.
Medical Care in the National Capital Region
The construction of ``world class'' hospitals at both the
new Walter Reed National Military Medical Center and Fort
Belvoir is a necessity. Servicemembers and their families
deserve nothing less. However, there is concern that this is
not going to occur under the current approach of the
Department of Defense. For example, the high degree of
concurrency within the program and the total lack of adequate
planning and design have resulted in an increased cost of the
new Walter Reed National Military Medical Center from the
estimate of $201,000,000 in May 2005 to $940,000,000 in early
calendar year 2008. Even with these increases the Department
of Defense has not included funding for eight items at the
new Walter Reed National Military Medical Center, not the
least of which are the Warrior Clinic, Warrior in Transition
housing, enlisted housing, and parking. Furthermore, the
Department of Defense and the community have yet to solve how
ingress and egress will be affected to support a facility for
which the daily population of patients and staff will
increase by over 4,000 individuals.
The number of patient visits per year for the three
existing hospitals is currently in excess of 1,500,000. The
transition to two new facilities will be a daunting challenge
under the best of circumstances. The Secretary of Defense is
directed to provide a thorough and detailed milestone
schedule which outlines projected construction completion,
prove out of the facilities, and transition of staff
personnel as well as the care for service members and their
families to the congressional defense committees within 120
days of enactment of this Act.

SOUTHCOM Funding
Funding for numerous systems and activities is shared
between SOUTHCOM's operation and maintenance budget and the
Department of Defense counternarcotics budget. The Command
Management System is one notable example where the division
of responsibility is unclear. The Department is urged to
reevaluate the methodology SOUTHCOM uses to determine which
portion of these systems and activities should be funded
through its normal operating budget and which should be
funded through counternarcotics funding streams. This
evaluation will ensure that SOUTHCOM is taking financial
responsibility for its baseline programs similar to other
Combatant Commanders which do not have the large
counternarcotics funding streams.
JOINT IMPROVISED EXPLOSIVE DEVICE DEFEAT FUND
The bill does not provide funding for the Joint Improvised
Explosive Device Defeat Organization. The request of
$496,300,000 was addressed in the previously enacted fiscal
year 2009 supplemental appropriations. Additional
requirements will be addressed in subsequent supplemental
appropriations for fiscal year 2009.
Terrorist Explosive Device Analytical Center
The Joint IED Defeat Organization (JIEDDO) is to be
commended on its work with the Federal Bureau of
Investigation's Terrorist Explosive Device Analytical Center
(TEDAC) to provide a unified partnership between law
enforcement, intelligence, and the U.S. military to
technically and forensically exploit IEDs. This relationship
is yielding actionable intelligence that contributes to
offensive anti-terror missions and to the force protection of
the United States and coalition assets around the globe. The
JIEDDO is encouraged to maintain and cultivate this
relationship in the future.
OFFICE OF THE INSPECTOR GENERAL
For the Office of the Inspector General, $271,845,000 is
provided for fiscal year 2009.

separate detailed and comprehensive classified annex. The
Intelligence Community, Department of Defense and other
organizations are expected to fully comply with the

accompanying the Department of Defense Appropriations Act,
2009.
Central Intelligence Agency Retirement and Disability System Fund
For the Central Intelligence Agency Retirement and
Disability Fund, $279,200,000 is provided for fiscal year
2009.
Intelligence Community Management Account
(including transfer of funds)
For the Intelligence Community Management Account,
$710,042,000 is provided for fiscal year 2009, as follows:

The bill provides for a transfer of $44,000,000 to the
Department of Justice for the National Drug Intelligence
Center to support the Department of Defense's counter-drug
intelligence responsibilities, of which $2,000,000 is for
reimbursement for Air Force personnel.
Intelligence Community Highly Qualified Employee (HQE) Authority
Within 30 days of the enactment of this Act, the Director
of National Intelligence is directed to implement the highly-
qualified-employee, ``HQE'' authority throughout the
Intelligence Community. The Department of Defense first
successfully used this authority to hire a business systems
expert to help the Secretary of Defense work toward a clean
financial audit opinion on annually appropriated defense
funds. The Director of National Intelligence is directed to
follow precedence in fiscal year 2009 and use this hiring
authority to supplement the Business Transformation Office
with at least seven private sector business systems experts.
Taking this step will assist the Intelligence Community in
implementing tools and techniques which will improve the
National Intelligence Program and the Military Intelligence
Program business processes and overall financial management.
Intelligence Community Facilities/Real Estate Management
The Director of National Intelligence is directed to
develop a coordinated strategy and subsequent Community- wide
policy for meeting its future validated infrastructure needs.
Further, the Director of National Intelligence is directed to
provide the congressional intelligence committees with an
Intelligence Community Facilities Management Strategy and a
Facilities Condition Index for all Intelligence Community
buildings over 20,000 square feet within 180 days of
enactment of this Act. Finally, future Intelligence Community
infrastructure requests should include a greater influence of
``green'' or sustainable building practices. The American
people expect the Community to be a leader when it comes to
cutting edge technologies, and embracing ideas such as
``green'' buildings should be prominent in all future
infrastructure strategy documents.
Intelligence Community Chief Human Capital Officer
The Intelligence Community Civilian Joint Duty Program has
the potential to break down barriers to information sharing
and collaboration, transform the culture of the Intelligence
Community, and help the Community achieve its strategic
goals. All Intelligence Community elements are directed to
participate fully in the program and the Community's senior
leadership is expected to support the program, encourage
their employees to take rotational assignments, and break
down any bureaucratic barriers to the smooth implementation
of the program as required by law. Further, that the
Intelligence Community has studied other pay-for-performance
efforts, both within the Community and the rest of government
is encouraging. The executive branch started implementing
this effort on September 14, 2008, and therefore the
Intelligence Community is directed to ensure that full
implementation of the system follows the principles of merit,
transparency and fairness in a manner which is deliberate and
methodical. Finally, semi-annual updates are expected to be
provided to the Committees on Appropriations beginning within
30 days of the enactment of this Act.
Controlled Access Programs
The Director of National Intelligence shall provide
notification of the establishment of National Intelligence
Program-funded Controlled Access Programs to the
congressional intelligence committees.
National Drug Intelligence Center
The National Drug Intelligence Center's mission includes
providing strategic domestic intelligence, supporting the
intelligence community's counterdrug efforts and document
exploitation. The National Drug Intelligence Center has
already been tasked to produce a drug threat assessment which
examines the illicit drug trade in Iraq and the threat it
poses to United States interests. The National Drug
Intelligence Center's document exploitation capability is
already recognized throughout the law enforcement community
as an invaluable aid to advancing the investigation and
prosecution of drug traffickers, money launderers, or any
criminal intent on attacking the national security interests
of the United States. The Director of National Intelligence
is directed to assess the National Drug Intelligence Center's
capabilities and report to the congressional intelligence
committees on those capabilities within 180 days of enactment
of this Act.

Office of General Counsel
The bill provides $20,114,000 for the Office of General
Counsel. Consistent with fiscal year 2008 language, the
Office of General Counsel is urged to consider whether it
would be more productive to transfer to specific DHS
components the legal staff responsible for the ongoing work
of those components, while maintaining the affiliation of
these staff with the Office of General Counsel. This
mechanism may expedite necessary legal reviews because legal
staff will specialize in certain areas.
Energy Shortfalls
While the bill fully funds the Department's budget requests
for energy costs, fuel prices have skyrocketed since those
requests were submitted. For example, the Coast Guard and
U.S. Customs and Border Protection currently estimate
additional fiscal year 2009 fuel costs of approximately
$90,000,000 and $40,000,000 above the budget requests,
respectively. Department-wide, the current estimate for an
increase in energy costs is estimated at almost $140,000,000.
However, despite full acknowledgment of these shortfalls, the
President has failed to submit any formal amendment to the
fiscal year 2009 budget request. Consequently, DHS will be
forced to find savings within its base appropriations to
cover these costs, with potentially severe consequences for
other ongoing activities. The failure to address such known
shortfalls in operational needs in the context of an official
budget request is an abdication of the President's budgetary
responsibilities. The Secretary is directed to submit a plan
by December 1, 2008, that includes estimates of the energy
costs for all DHS component agencies in fiscal year 2009 and
identifies how these shortfalls will be addressed.
DHS-GAO Relations
The Department's July 2008 guidance on interactions with
the GAO does not ``significantly streamline'' the review
process for document and interview requests as required by
Public Law 110-161. The DHS guidance limits GAO's direct
access to program officials and requested documentation and
instead provides for centralized control and review by DHS
liaisons and attorneys. The Department shall submit to the
Committees and GAO, on a quarterly basis, a report itemizing
all instances where DHS did not provide information to GAO
within 20 days or did not arrange for interviews within seven
days, including the reasons for not meeting these timeframes.
With respect to such quarterly reports, GAO shall provide the
Committees its assessment of the validity of the DHS data and
analysis. The Department shall provide these reports within
15 days of the end of each quarter, and GAO shall review the
reports within 30 days of receiving them. The bill withholds
$15,000,000 from obligation until the Secretary submits the
second quarterly report.
Distribution of Grant Awards
The bill withholds $10,000,000 from obligation until the
Secretary of Homeland Security, in coordination with the
Administrator of FEMA, certifies and reports to the
Committees that certain conditions regarding the process to
incorporate stakeholder input for grant guidance development
and award distribution have been met. DHS and FEMA are
expected to ensure that these grants are made in a timely
fashion so that known risks can be addressed expeditiously.
Greenhouse Gas Emissions
By September 30, 2009, the Secretary shall provide to
Congress a detailed inventory of DHS's greenhouse gas
emissions and a plan to reduce these emissions.
Budget Justifications
The congressional budget justifications for the Office of
the Secretary and Executive Management for fiscal year 2010
shall include the same level of detail as the table contained
at the end of this statement. All funding and staffing
changes for each office must be highlighted and explained and
this detail shall include separate discussions for personnel,
compensation and benefits; travel; training; and other
services. The number of permanent positions and full-time
equivalents (FTE) identified in the congressional budget
justification should tie to available and requested
resources. Finally, all proposals to move programs and
funding from one office to another should be clearly outlined
in the congressional budget justification.
Working Capital Fund
DHS shall provide a separate fiscal year 2010 budget
justification for the Department's working capital fund (WCF)
that includes each activity, basis for pricing, FTEs, and an
explanation of how DHS is allocating funds in fiscal years
2009 and 2010 to each component. Bill language providing new
authority and requirements for the WCF is detailed in Title V
of this explanatory statement. All cross-cutting initiatives
shall be included within the WCF, unless the omission can be
fully justified and explained.
The fiscal year 2008 WCF charges were altered nine months
into the fiscal year, causing component agencies to delay
expenditures or reprogram funds to cover these unanticipated
charges. DHS must notify the Committees more promptly of any
additions, deletions, or changes that are made to the WCF
during the fiscal year that are subject to section 503 of
this Act. DHS should not fund any activities within the WCF
that have been disapproved previously.
DHS is in the process of studying the authority, structure,
governance, organization, business practices, and management
of the WCF. DHS shall provide the Committees with a copy of
this study when it is complete and shall address any
recommendations regarding cost allocation and billing
consistency as part of the fiscal year 2010 budget request.
Quarterly Detailee Reports
DHS shall continue to provide quarterly detailee reports,
as required in the Senate report.
Office of the Under Secretary for Management
The bill provides $191,793,000 for the Office of the Under
Secretary for Management. Funding shall be allocated as
follows:
Under Secretary for Management...............................$2,654,000
Office of Security...........................................60,882,000
Office of the Chief Procurement Officer......................39,003,000
Office of the Chief Human Capital Officer....................28,827,000
Human Resources..............................................10,000,000
Office of the Chief Administrative Officer...................44,427,000
Nebraska Avenue Complex Facilities............................6,000,000
________________
Total.................................................191,793,000
Office of the Chief Procurement Officer
The bill provides $39,003,000 for the Office of the Chief
Procurement Officer (OCPO). In the past, funding has been
repeatedly increased to hire additional procurement
specialists, yet the Office has been slow in filling these
positions. As a result, the Committees are dissatisfied with
the amount of time it takes the Office of Procurement
Operations to review and approve contracts for component
agencies and act on procurement recommendations. For fiscal
year 2009, DHS shall conduct a two year pilot with the
Science and Technology (S&T) Directorate to determine whether
assigning more procurement responsibility to S&T will result
in more efficient procurements. Under the pilot, S&T will
hire its own contracting officers responsible for making
procurement recommendations and meeting performance metrics,
while the DHS Office of the Chief Procurement Officer will
conduct appropriate reviews to ensure that procurement
actions are aligned with DHS policies and procedures. The
OCPO, in conjunction with S&T, shall brief the Committees on
the implementation plan for this pilot within 30 days after
the date of enactment of this Act; on the progress of the
pilot within six months of enactment; and on the results of
the pilot after its completion.
As discussed in the House report, OCPO should identify more
opportunities for minority and small business enterprises.
DHS appears to be overly reliant on contractors, as
discussed in the Senate report. DHS should consider replacing
contractors with full-time government employees and brief the
Committees on the directives included in the Senate report no
later than March 30, 2009.
Due to the Coast Guard's failure to adequately oversee the
Deepwater program, the Secretary shall rescind the delegation
of acquisition authority provided to the Coast Guard for
Deepwater in order to keep oversight within the OCPO, as
recommended by GAO.
[[Page 21542]]
Investment Review Process
The Department's Investment Review Board (IRB), established
to ensure centralized, robust oversight across large-scale
investments, is not performing satisfactorily. It is unclear
which investments the IRB will review, how it intends to
oversee decisions on large procurements, how its decisions
will be monitored, and how necessary follow-up action will be
taken. The IRB may only be able to focus on a limited number
of critical procurements while DHS attempts to get the
investment review process on-track. With this in mind, the
Deputy Secretary shall ensure that the IRB reviews and
oversees the top 15 DHS investments, measured either by total
cost, criticality of the item or service being procured, and/
or other means determined by DHS. Within 45 days after the
date of enactment of this Act, the Deputy Secretary shall
identify and submit to the Committees a list of the
investments to be reviewed and a description of the formal
investment review processes the IRB will follow.
Office of the Chief Human Capital Officer
The bill provides $38,827,000 for the Office of the Chief
Human Capital Officer. Within the total appropriated is
$10,000,000 for human resources and $2,500,000 for new
learning initiatives. Funding has been reduced due to high
unobligated balances in this office. Due to numerous delays
in the hiring process administered by this Office, the Chief
Human Capital Officer shall provide monthly reports on the
amount of time it takes to fill vacancies within DHS, as
outlined in the House report.
Office of the Chief Administrative Officer
The bill provides $50,427,000 for the Office of the Chief
Administrative Officer (CAO). Of this total, $44,427,000 is
for the salaries and expenses of the CAO and $6,000,000 is
for facilities costs at the Nebraska Avenue Complex (NAC).
This funding level supports 11 additional FTEs to manage the
consolidation of DHS components on the St. Elizabeths west
campus. Funding for the first phase of the proposed
consolidation of DHS headquarters at the St. Elizabeths
campus is included within the Coast Guard's ``Acquisition,
Construction, and Improvements'' appropriation.
Since a significant portion of departmental offices are
scheduled to move to St. Elizabeths by 2016, with the first
moves beginning in 2013, the CAO shall minimize investments
and improvements made at the NAC that would need to be
replicated at the new headquarters. The CAO is directed to
provide semiannual briefings on anticipated spending at the
NAC, the first of which shall occur 60 days after the date of
enactment of this Act.
Office of the Chief Financial Officer
The bill provides $55,235,000 for the Office of the Chief
Financial Officer (CFO). The bill fully funds the CFO's
staffing request. Of this total, $18,189,000 has been
provided to the Transformation and Systems Consolidation
project, a slight reduction from the requested amount due to
delays in this project. The CFO shall brief the Committees on
its progress to establish a more reliable acquisition
timeline for this consolidation effort. Furthermore, the CFO
shall comply with recommendations made by the DHS Inspector
General in OIG 08-47, which are intended to improve DHS's
strategy to consolidate its financial systems.
Annual Appropriations Justifications
The CFO is directed to submit all of its fiscal year 2010
budget justifications (classified and unclassified) with
detailed information by appropriation account and program,
project, and activity (PPA) for all components of DHS. The
CFO must ensure that the annual appropriations justifications
include: (1) explicit information on all reimbursable
agreements and uses of the Economy Act; (2) adequate
justification for each increase, decrease, and staffing
change; (3) a listing of overdue Committee reports; and (4) a
detailed table identifying the last year authorizing
legislation was provided by Congress for each appropriation
account, the amount of the authorization, and the
appropriation in the last year of the authorization. Finally,
the CFO shall not permit any DHS component to alter the PPAs
in the fiscal year 2010 budget submission into any account
structure other than that contained in the funding
recommendation table.
Office of the Chief Information Officer
The bill includes $272,169,000 for the Office of the Chief
Information Officer (CIO). Funding shall be allocated as
follows:
Salaries and Expenses.......................................$86,928,000
Information Technology Activities............................44,945,000
Security Activities..........................................92,623,000
Homeland Secure Data Network.................................47,673,000
________________
Total, Chief Information Officer......................272,169,000
Information Technology Activities
The bill provides $44,945,000 for Information Technology
Activities, $2,500,000 more than requested. Additional funds
shall be used for the CIO's highest priority Enterprise
Architecture (EA) projects, including information technology
reviews, and to strengthen oversight and Departmental
compliance with EA policy. The CIO is directed to ensure that
all staff conducting EA oversight are Federal employees.
Security Activities
The bill provides $92,623,000 for Security Activities,
$22,300,000 more than the amount requested. This increased
funding is provided to support costs of transition to the
National Center for Critical Information Processing and
Storage.
CIO-Led Information Technology Acquisitions
The Committee continues an existing requirement that the
CIO report on all information technology acquisitions
financed directly or managed by the CIO.
Federal Information Security and Management Act
DHS has made progress improving its performance on the
Federal Information Security and Management Act scorecard,
but must do more to improve its information security. The CIO
is directed to brief the Committees no later than April 6,
2009, on the details of its information security priorities
and initiatives, as discussed in the Senate report.
ANALYSIS AND OPERATIONS
The bill includes $327,373,000 for Analysis and Operations.
As requested by the Department, the Committee has transferred
funding between appropriations for Analysis and Operations
and the Office of the Secretary and Executive Management, to
reflect the reassignment of the Secretary's briefing staff
and counter-terrorism planning staff.
DHS Intelligence Expenditure Plan
As detailed in the Senate report, no later than 60 days
after the date of enactment of this Act, the Secretary shall
submit a fiscal year 2009 expenditure plan for the Office of
Intelligence and Analysis, including balances carried forward
from prior years.
State and Local Fusion Centers
The Department's Chief Intelligence Officer is directed to
continue quarterly updates to the Committees that detail
progress in placing DHS intelligence professionals in State
and local fusion centers, as discussed in the Senate report.
Classified Programs
Recommended adjustments to classified programs are
addressed in a classified annex accompanying this statement.
Office of the Federal Coordinator for Gulf Coast Rebuilding
The bill provides $1,900,000 for the Office of the Federal
Coordinator for Gulf Coast Rebuilding (OFCGCR). OFCGCR is
expected to remain open until at least the end of fiscal year
2009. Of the amount provided, $50,000 is for OFCGCR to
organize a panel of housing experts, disaster response
experts, and urban planning experts to develop a framework
for developing and sustaining affordable rental housing in
affected Gulf Coast Communities. These experts shall be
chosen as detailed in the House report. OFCGCR is to report
to the Committees on the recommendations of this panel, and
to submit a strategy and timeline for implementing the most
promising recommendations, by December 30, 2008.
Office of Inspector General
The bill provides $98,513,000 for the Office of Inspector
General (OIG). In addition to this direct appropriation,
$16,000,000 may be transferred from the Disaster Relief Fund
(DRF) to the OIG to continue and expand audits and
investigations related to disasters. The OIG is required to
notify the Committees no less than 15 days prior to all
transfers from the DRF.
Audit Reports
The OIG is directed to forward copies of all audit reports
to the Committees when they are issued and to immediately
make the Committees aware of any review that recommends
cancellation of, or modification to, any major acquisition
project or grant, or that recommends significant budgetary
savings. The OIG is directed to withhold any final audit or
investigation report requested by the Committees from public
distribution for a period of 15 days.
OIG Website
The Secretary of the Department of Homeland Security is
directed to update and maintain the DHS OIG website link as
established on the DHS website.
TITLE II--SECURITY, ENFORCEMENT, AND INVESTIGATIONS
U.S. Customs and Border Protection
SALARIES AND EXPENSES
The bill includes $7,603,206,000 for U.S. Customs and
Border Protection (CBP) Salaries and Expenses. Of this
amount, $1,269,158,000 is for Headquarters, Management, and
Administration, including an additional $500,000 for three
new positions for conduct and integrity oversight, and an
additional $2,007,000 associated with 58 new positions for
trade programs, as specified in the Senate report. Within the
total appropriation, $2,561,099,000 is for Border Security
Inspections and Trade Facilitation, including: an additional
$200,000,000 to fund CBP Officer law enforcement retirement
costs, as identified by CBP; $62,800,000, as requested, to
support US-VISIT operations and equipment managed by CBP; an
additional $10,000,000 to enhance and expand the Global Entry
system; an additional
[[Page 21543]]
$8,750,000 for 173 new CBP Officer positions at air ports of
entry for the final two months of the fiscal year; an
additional $28,282,000 for 561 new CBP Officer positions for
land ports of entry for the final two months of the fiscal
year; an additional $5,100,000 for 100 new Agricultural
Specialist positions for the final two months of the fiscal
year; an additional $2,553,000 for 58 new positions for trade
programs, as specified in the Senate report; an additional
$4,500,000 for a Joint Information and Intelligence Fusion
Center in Bellingham, Washington, of which not more than
$2,000,000 shall be available until September 30, 2010, and
of which up to $500,000 may be used for security training and
exercises in preparation for the 2010 Winter Olympics. The
bill does not require use of prior year unobligated balances
of Salaries and Expenses appropriations to fund fiscal year
2009 Inspections, Trade, and Travel Facilitation at Ports of
Entry, notwithstanding direction in the House report.
Within this appropriation, $145,944,000 is for inspection
and detection technology investments, reflecting an
additional $30,000,000 for the acquisition of new or
replacement large-scale non-intrusive inspection technology
and a reduction of $3,200,000 due to delayed radiation
monitor deployments. A total of $3,501,270,000 is included in
this appropriation for Border Security and Control Between
Ports of Entry, including an additional $1,950,000 for the
transfer of up to 75 Border Patrol agents to the Northern
border, and a reduction of $16,000,000 from the request due
to expected delays in hiring mission support staff. Finally,
$271,679,000 in this appropriation is for Air and Marine
Personnel Compensation and Benefits, including an additional
$17,400,000 for 115 positions to staff fully 11 new Marine
Enforcement Units.
The following table specifies funding by budget program,

Staffing and Resource Reports and Briefings
CBP is directed to: (1) report and brief on Border Patrol
hiring and deployment statistics, and (2) share staffing and
resource information with port authorities and other
stakeholders at airports and land ports of entry, as
specified in the House report. In addition, CBP is directed
to brief the Committees not later than January 30, 2009, on
how incentives such as pay adjustments could be used to
recruit and retain Border Patrol agents and CBP Officers with
language fluency skills, as outlined in the House report.
Global Entry
CBP is directed to report to the Committees on its findings
from Global Entry airport pilots, as outlined in the House
report.
Support of US-VISIT
CBP is directed to provide a detailed report, as part of
its fiscal year 2010 budget request, on its support of US-
VISIT technology and operations, as specified in the House
report.
Automated Targeting System--Passenger (ATS-P)
CBP is directed to obligate no funds to enhance ATS-P until
the Commissioner certifies such enhancement complies with all
applicable laws, as specified in the House report.
Textile Transshipment Enforcement
The bill includes $4,750,000 for textile transshipment
enforcement. CBP is directed to ensure that activities of its
Textile and Apparel Policies and Programs Office are
maintained at prior year levels, and to report in the fiscal
year 2010 budget on execution of its five year plan, as
specified in the House report.
Border Patrol Self-Inspection Program
CBP is directed to include in its fiscal year 2010 budget
submission a report on results for the annual Border Patrol
Self-Inspection Program, including data on processing and
treatment of unaccompanied alien minors encountered by the
Border Patrol, as specified in the House report.
Invasive Plant Species
CBP is directed to include in its fiscal year 2010 budget
submission a plan to eradicate Arundo donax and other
invasive plants in Texas border areas, as specified in the
House report.
Infectious Disease Interdiction and Control
CBP is encouraged to explore with the Centers for Disease
Control and Prevention ways to improve CBP Officer training
related to infectious disease interdiction and control at
ports of entry, as outlined in the House report.
Project SeaHawk
Project SeaHawk is funded at $2,000,000. CBP is directed to
report on the impact of Project SeaHawk to date, and how it
will be funded and supported beyond fiscal year 2009, as
specified in the House report.
Operational Support and Mission Support Hiring
CBP has informed the Committees that it is significantly
behind schedule for hiring operational support and mission
support personnel for Border Patrol operations, with 886
positions currently vacant. It therefore appears unlikely
that CBP will be able to hire the 441 additional operational
support and mission support positions requested for fiscal
year 2009 or address the current hiring lag. The bill reduces
funding for this purpose by $16,000,000. CBP is directed to
intensify its efforts, as specified in the Senate report, to
hire previously funded positions and enable Border Patrol
agents to concentrate on their enforcement missions, thus
addressing a need made more urgent by the termination of
National Guard support under Operation Jump Start. CBP is
directed to report on this mission support hiring effort as
part of its quarterly hiring briefings to the Committees.
CBP Vehicle Fleet
DHS is directed to include with its fiscal year 2010 budget
submission a plan to replace at least 20 percent of the CBP
vehicle fleet annually, as well as the funding needed to
execute the plan, as specified in the Senate report.
Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Enforcement
The bill includes, within the amounts provided for in this
account, sufficient funds to administer the on-going
requirements of section 754 of the Tariff Act of 1930 (19
U.S.C. 1675c), referenced in subtitle F of title VII of the
Deficit Reduction Act of 2005 (Public Law 109-171; 120 Stat.
154).
CBP is directed to continue to work with the Departments of
Commerce and Treasury, and the Office of the United States
Trade Representative (and all other relevant agencies) to
increase collections, and provide a public report on an
annual basis, within 30 days of each year's distributions
under the law. The report should summarize CBP's efforts to
collect past due amounts and increase current collections,
particularly with respect to cases involving unfairly traded
U.S. imports from China. The report shall provide the amount
of uncollected duties for each antidumping and countervailing
duty order, and indicate the amount of open, unpaid bills for
each such order. In that report, the Secretary of Homeland
Security, in consultation with other relevant agencies,
including the Secretaries of Treasury and Commerce, should
also advise as to whether CBP can adjust its bonding
requirements to further protect revenue without violating
U.S. law or international obligations, and without imposing
unreasonable costs upon importers.
The Secretary of Homeland Security is directed to work with
the Secretary of Commerce to identify opportunities for the
Commerce Department to improve the timeliness, accuracy, and
clarity of liquidation instructions sent to CBP. Increased
attention and interagency coordination in these areas could
help ensure that steps in the collection of duties are
completed in a more expeditious manner.
[[Page 21544]]
Customs Revenue Staffing Shortfalls
CBP is directed to comply with the direction specified in
the Senate report regarding customs revenue staffing
shortfalls.
Inspection and Detection Technology
CBP has informed the Committees that it does not intend to
acquire or refurbish additional large-scale non-intrusive
inspection (NII) technology in fiscal year 2008, despite the
need to replace at least 36 systems in the CBP inventory that
are no longer in operation or fail to meet minimum
performance standards set by CBP. In order to ensure that CBP
attains the most cost effective technology for inspection and
detection missions, the bill includes an additional
$30,000,000 to acquire new or replacement large-scale NII
technology. CBP is directed to use competitive acquisition
practices to replace, refurbish, or acquire large-scale NII
systems, and to make all such decisions, regardless of
whether they result in new or refurbished systems, based on
comparisons of cost and performance for all options.
Container Security Devices
The bill includes language directing the Commissioner to
submit to the Committees, not later than 120 days after the
date of enactment of this Act, the results of operational
field testing of container security devices and a plan for
implementation and deployment of such devices, as applicable,
in high risk trade lanes.
AUTOMATION MODERNIZATION
The bill includes $511,334,000 for Automation
Modernization, as requested. Of this funding, not less than
$316,851,000 is provided for the Automated Commercial
Environment (ACE), of which $16,000,000 is included for the
International Trade Data System. Of the total provided for
ACE, $216,851,000 is unavailable for obligation until 30 days
after an expenditure plan is submitted to the Committees, as
specified in the House report. CBP is directed to continue
submitting quarterly reports to the Committees on progress in
implementing ACE.
TECS Modernization Expenditure Plan
CBP is directed to comply with direction specified in the
House and Senate reports regarding briefings and reports on
TECS modernization.
BORDER SECURITY FENCING, INFRASTRUCTURE, AND TECHNOLOGY
The bill includes $775,000,000 for the integrated Border
Security Fencing, Infrastructure, and Technology (BSFIT)
account, as requested. Funds are available until expended.
The funding includes $120,000,000 for Program Management,
including $50,000,000 for environmental and regulatory
requirements, and $70,000,000 for personnel operations and
support; $505,000,000 for Development and Deployment, of
which $30,000,000 is for the Border Interoperability
Demonstration Project, and $40,000,000 is for Northern border
security technology investment; and $150,000,000 for
Operations and Support. The latter funding level reflects the
Administration's downward revision from the original
$410,000,000 request for Operations and Support.
The bill makes $400,000,000 unavailable for obligation
until the Committees have received and approved an
expenditure plan that complies with conditions set forth in
the bill, and which has been reviewed by the GAO. The bill
also makes no funding available until the Secretary certifies
that CBP has complied with legal requirements for
consultation with communities, federal agencies and other
stakeholders affected by planned deployment of fencing and
tactical infrastructure, and also makes no funding available
for projects for which the Secretary has exercised statutory
authority to waive various environmental and other
regulations and laws until 15 days after public notice of
such waiver. Finally, the bill makes $100,000,000 available
immediately to CBP for any BSFIT purposes, notwithstanding
any other provision in the bill.
Reporting Requirements to the Committees
CBP is directed to include, as part of the quarterly Secure
Border Initiative (SBI) reports, a report on technology
investment on the Northern border, as specified in the House
report. CBP is directed to provide a monthly report on BSFIT
obligations and expenditures, as specified in the House
report. CBP is directed to include, within the fiscal year
2009 expenditure plan and as specified in the House report,
an environmental plan and a report on mitigation efforts.
Establishment and Maintenance of Border Barriers
CBP is directed to explain the rationale for its BSFIT
operations and maintenance budget, which it significantly
reduced from its original budget level. The explanation
should be included in the expenditure plan, and should also
address the significant shift in technology investment into
fiscal years 2009 and 2010, and implications for ongoing
operations and maintenance costs.
Vehicles
CBP is directed to fund any requirements for vehicles for
the SBI Program Management Office or other activities funded
in this account through the CBP Salaries and Expenses
appropriation.
Analysis of Alternatives for Border Infrastructure Investment
CBP is directed to comply with specifications in the House
report for the conduct of analyses of alternatives for
effective control of the border, as well as to ensure that
CBP identifies and evaluates alternatives proposed by
stakeholders as potential substitutes for tactical
infrastructure.
Government Accountability Office Review
GAO is directed to review the CBP process for consultation
on border infrastructure projects and how CBP carries out
such consultation, as specified in the House report.
Tactical Communications
The Commissioner is directed to provide a plan, within 90
days of the date of enactment of this Act, detailing the
staffing, equipment, and funding necessary to complete the
build out of the Border Patrol Tactical Communications

Prioritizing the Removal of Deportable Criminal Aliens
In the Department of Homeland Security Appropriations Act,
2008, the Congress provided ICE $200,000,000 to identify
aliens convicted of crimes and sentenced to imprisonment, and
to remove from the country those individuals judged
deportable. Within its plan to carry out this mandate, ICE
estimated it would cost between $900,000,000 and
$1,100,000,000 annually to find and deport the most dangerous
and violent criminals judged deportable.
The bill recognizes the complex mix of programs and
priorities that ICE faces by providing a significant funding
increase for the agency's overall operations. The bill
requires that within the resources provided to ICE
$1,000,000,000 shall be to address the compelling need to
remove from the United States deportable criminal aliens,
whether in custody or at-large. Of this amount, $150,000,000
is additional funding that was not requested by the President
and $850,000,000 is from within existing ICE programs to
strengthen the agency's focus on this challenge.
The bill requires ICE to report to the Committees on
exactly how it will allocate the funds provided for this
purpose, and to provide quarterly updates on its expenditures
and progress toward identifying and removing all deportable
criminal aliens. Within 30 days after the date of enactment
of this Act, ICE shall submit a report detailing how the
agency will utilize the additional $150,000,000 provided in
the bill, as well as an explicit plan for how ICE will
allocate $850,000,000 of existing program resources to the
identification and removal of deportable criminal aliens. As
discussed in the House report, ICE should clearly identify
activities across the entire range of its programs and
explain how they are focused on efforts to identify and
remove deportable criminal aliens.
ICE Investigations
The bill provides $1,519,208,000 for ICE domestic
investigations and $133,541,000 for ICE international
investigations. Within these amounts, $22,100,000 is provided
as requested to expand a variety of investigatory programs.
Additional resources are allocated to the following programs:
$6,000,000 for transnational gang enforcement; $8,400,000 for
the visa security program, as discussed in the Senate report;
and $3,000,000 for cyber crime investigations.
The budget structure for ICE domestic investigations is
reflected at the same aggregate level as in prior
appropriations. In the past, ICE has been unable to detail
how it allocates resources within the Office of
Investigations (OI), sets investigatory priorities, or
measures the performance of units within OI. ICE is directed
to submit, within 30 days after the date of enactment of this
Act, a detailed expenditure plan for the investigations
budget that reflects the agency's priorities and resource
allocations, and to provide quarterly reports on the
execution of this plan within 30 days of the close of each
quarter of the fiscal year. In addition, ICE is directed to
provide the same level of detail in the congressional
justification documents for the fiscal year 2010
investigations budget.
The budget for ICE international investigations is split
into two separate programs in fiscal year 2009: the visa
security program (VSP) and other international
investigations. Because of the importance of VSP, and the
significant expansion funded in fiscal year 2009, ICE and the
Committees need this additional detail to monitor how the
agency aligns its resources to mission requirements and
operations.
ICE Worksite Enforcement
The bill provides $126,515,000 for worksite enforcement
investigations, an increase of $34,300,000 over the request
level, as discussed in the Senate report.
ICE Resource Allocations
GAO is directed to review ICE resource allocations as
discussed in the House report.
Coordination of Budget Submissions for the Immigration System
When DHS implements new civil and criminal immigration
enforcement initiatives, other elements of the justice system
may not have been able to plan or budget for how these DHS
initiatives will impact their own workload and resource
needs. An efficient justice system requires coordination
between many elements including investigative agents, U.S.
Attorneys, U.S. Marshals, the Office of the Federal Detention
Trustee, district courts, probation and pretrial services
officers, defender services, the Federal Prison System, and
the Executive Office of Immigration Review (EOIR). The
Administration is expected to improve its budgeting for
immigration initiatives to ensure that all elements of the
civil and criminal justice system have sufficient resources
to implement DHS enforcement programs. Specifically, in order
to ensure success of the effort to remove criminal aliens,
resource requests for EOIR and ICE must be coordinated.
ICE Intelligence
The bill provides an additional $2,833,000 for ICE Field
Intelligence Groups, as discussed in the Senate report.
Detention Bed Spaces
The bill provides funding for 1,400 additional detention
beds and associated staffing at ICE, which will allow the
agency to detain up to 33,400 individuals on a daily basis.
Detention Center Medical Services
The bill provides an additional $2,000,000 for the Office
of Professional Responsibility in 2009 for ICE to undertake
immediately a review of the medical care provided to people
detained by DHS. This review should be carried out as
discussed in the House report. In addition, ICE should
immediately implement the GAO recommendations to improve its
medical services, as discussed in the Senate report.
State and Local Programs
The bill provides a total of $99,653,000 for State and
local programs, $2,200,000 more than requested. Within this
total, $54,130,000 is for the 287(g) program, including
$5,000,000 for compliance reviews conducted by the Office of
Professional Responsibility. ICE is strongly encouraged to
prioritize new 287(g) agreements that will maximize the
identification and removal of deportable criminal aliens. As
requested, $11,286,000 is provided for the Forensics Document
Laboratory. The bill also provides $34,237,000 for the Law
Enforcement Support Center (LESC), an additional $2,200,000,
which should be used to fund conversion of LESC employees
from job category 1802 to job category 1801.
Textile Transshipment Enforcement
As discussed in the Senate report, the bill includes
$4,750,000 for textile transshipment enforcement, as
authorized by section 352 of the Trade Act of 2002.
Concurrent with its fiscal year 2010 budget submission, ICE
should report on this activity as discussed in the House
report.
Alternatives to Detention
The bill provides $63,000,000, $7,209,000 above the
request, for Alternatives to Detention programs.
Inappropriate Treatment of Children in ICE Custody
The OIG is directed to review ICE practices for determining
the age of those in its custody, and to report to the
Committees on Appropriations on any cases in fiscal years
2008 or 2009 where ICE used dental or skeletal examinations
to determine a child's age.
Transportation of Unaccompanied Alien Minors
In conjunction with the Office of Management and Budget
(OMB) and the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS),
DHS is directed to submit a report to the Committees no later
than March 1, 2009, recommending which agency is the most
appropriate to fund transportation of unaccompanied alien
minors between DHS and HHS custody. In addition, starting no
later than April 6, 2009, ICE, in conjunction with the HHS
Office of Refugee Resettlement, should provide semi-annual
briefings to the Committees on the implementation of the
recommendations. For fiscal year 2009, the bill provides
sufficient resources to DHS to pay for this transportation
responsibility.
ICE Headquarters Management and Administration
The bill provides an increase of $987,000 for ICE Training
Consolidation and Integration, and $7,000,000 for efforts to
co-locate ICE field facilities.
Human Rights Law Division
As discussed in the House report, an additional $500,000 is
provided within the budget for the ICE Office of the
Principal Legal Advisor to continue expansion of the Human
Rights Law Division.
[[Page 21546]]
Detention and Removal Reporting
ICE is directed to continue to submit quarterly reports on
detention and removal statistics, as discussed in the Senate
report.
Special Interest Aliens
Within 45 days after the date of enactment of this Act, ICE
is directed to provide a classified briefing on special
interest aliens, as discussed in the Senate report.
Student and Exchange Visitor Program
ICE is directed to ensure that additional revenues
collected through higher Student and Exchange Visitor Program
fees improve customer service for both students and academic
institutions, as discussed in the House report.
FEDERAL PROTECTIVE SERVICE
Funding for the Federal Protective Service (FPS) is
provided through a security fee charged to all GSA building
tenants in FPS-protected buildings. Pursuant to the increased
security fees announced on February 28, 2008, the bill
estimates that FPS will collect and spend $640,000,000 in
fiscal year 2009, which is $24,000,000 more than estimated in
the budget.
Federal Protective Service Police
The bill includes a provision maintaining FPS police
staffing at the levels mandated by the Department of Homeland
Security Appropriations Act, 2008. The bill also requires the
Director of OMB to certify in writing that fees in fiscal
year 2009 will be sufficient to support the FPS police
staffing levels.
AUTOMATION MODERNIZATION
The bill provides $57,000,000 for Automation Modernization,
as requested, which funds a variety of ICE technology
investments critical to the future of the agency.

implementation of a law enforcement officer biometric
credential; and improve security at general aviation
airports. TSA shall report to the Committees 90 days after
the date of enactment of this Act on the proposed allocation
of these funds at the account and PPA level.
Privatized Screening
The bill provides $151,272,000 for Privatized Screening.
TSA is directed to approve applications for those airports
that are seeking to participate in the screening partnership
program and to provide screener services to airports that
become eligible in fiscal year 2009. TSA shall notify the
Committees if the agency expects to spend less than the
appropriated amount due to situations where no additional
airports express interest in converting, either fully or
partially, to privatized screening, or where airports
currently using privatized screening convert to using federal
screeners. TSA shall adjust its PPA line items, and notify
the Committees within ten days, to account for any changes in
private screening contracts, and screener personnel,
compensation and benefits to reflect the award of contracts
under the screening partnership program, or the movement from
privatized screening into federal screening.
Wait Times
Consistent with prior years, TSA shall continue to submit
airport wait time data on a quarterly basis for domestic
airports with above-average wait times and for the top 40
busiest airports. As part of these reports, TSA shall explain
any dramatic shift in wait times and what is being done to
reduce wait times at these airports. TSA shall not alter its
current 10 minute standard.
Checkpoint Support
The bill provides $250,000,000 for Checkpoint Support to
deploy a number of emerging technologies to screen airline
passengers and carry-on baggage for explosives, weapons, and
other threat objects by the most advanced equipment currently
under development. TSA is directed to spend funds on multiple
whole body imaging technologies including backscatter and
millimeter wave as directed in the Senate report. TSA shall
provide an expenditure plan not later than 60 days after the
date of enactment of this Act, as discussed under
Transportation Security Support.
Sterile Area Access
Currently TSA is studying the feasibility of a sterile area
access system at three pilot airports and expects these
pilots to be concluded in fiscal year 2008. TSA is directed
to notify the Committees on the results of these pilots after
the agency evaluates whether throughput is improved with
separate sterile area screening for airline crews, identifies
what problems may occur in real time environments in which
crew are screened separately from passengers, and evaluates
resource and funding needs. If TSA determines that this
program merits expansion, checkpoint support funds may be
used for this purpose after notifying the Committees.
Explosives Detection Systems
The bill provides a total of $544,000,000 for Explosives
Detection Systems (EDS) procurement and installation. Within
the total funding for EDS procurement and installation,
$294,000,000 is appropriated in this Act and $250,000,000 is
derived from mandatory funding from the Aviation Security
Capital Fund. Within the funds provided, not less than
$84,500,000 shall be available to procure and deploy
certified EDS at medium- and small-sized airports. The
purchase of the screening equipment for medium- and small-
sized airports must be competitively awarded. Any award to
deploy explosives detection systems must be based on risk,
the airports current reliance on other screening solutions,
lobby congestion resulting in increased security concerns,
high injury rates, airport readiness, and increased cost
effectiveness.
TSA shall provide an expenditure plan to the Committees not
later than 60 days after the date of enactment of this Act,
as discussed under Transportation Security Support. If new
requirements occur after the plan is submitted, TSA shall
reassess and reallocate funds after notifying the Committees
of any change. As discussed in the Senate report, TSA shall
provide quarterly updates on EDS and checkpoint expenditures,
on an airport-by-airport basis. These updates shall include
information on the specific technologies for purchase,
project timelines, a schedule for obligation, and a table
detailing actual versus anticipated unobligated
[[Page 21547]]
balances at the close of the fiscal year, with an explanation
of any deviation from the original plan.
Screening Technology Maintenance and Utilities
The bill provides $305,625,000 for Screening Technology
Maintenance and Utilities, of which $4,400,000 can be used
for costs related to the disposal of screening equipment no
longer in service. Because of persistent cost escalations in
this area, TSA shall provide a report to the Committees on
maintenance and utility costs for screening technologies and
identify ways that these costs may be controlled in the
future.
Threat Containment Units
TSA is encouraged to review the efficacy of its current
inventory of threat containment units (TCUs) and, as
necessary, test and evaluate next generation TCU
technologies. TSA should report to the Committees on whether
TCUs should be part of its explosives detection operations
and if so, whether additional units are needed.
General Aviation
As part of its efforts to address vulnerabilities in
general aviation security, TSA is directed to report to the
Committees on the execution of fiscal year 2008 general

shipper program. No later than 60 days after the date of
enactment of this Act, TSA shall submit an expenditure plan
to the Committees on the allocation of air cargo funds,
including carryover. This plan should detail efforts to
develop new covert testing protocols, data related to cargo
strike team augmentation, the location and number of canine
teams deployed, and the specific screening technologies
deployed for air cargo. In addition, TSA is directed to brief
the Committees on its certified shipper pilot program before
it moves to a nationwide rollout. This briefing should detail
the processes for securing air cargo through the supply
chain, and schedule, milestones, and performance measures for
the program.
Within the fiscal year 2007 supplemental appropriation
(Public Law 110-28), funding was provided for TSA to assess
air cargo vulnerabilities at the largest (Category X)
airports. TSA is directed to brief the Committees no later
than March 1, 2009, on the results of the completed airport
vulnerability assessments, as detailed in the Senate report.
If vulnerability assessments have not been completed at all
of the largest airports, TSA shall brief the Committees again
once all work has been concluded.

Port and Maritime Safety and Security
A total of $23,500,000 is provided for port and maritime
safety and security enhancements. This funding shall be used:
for additional watchstanders, boats, and marine inspection
staff; to conduct testing of Area Contingency Plans; to
increase maritime casualty investigations; to increase armed
boat escorts and security boardings; and to increase terminal
inspections of Certain Dangerous Cargoes transport and
delivery. The Coast Guard is directed to provide a plan no
later than 60 days after the date of enactment of this Act on
how this funding will be allocated. In addition, the Coast
Guard is directed to comply with House report language
regarding the Vessel Tracking System and the Ports and
Waterways Safety System.
increased operational hours for coastal patrol boats
A total of $4,150,000 is provided to increase operational
hours of the 87-foot patrol boats. The Coast Guard is
directed to brief the Committees on the results of this
effort six months after it is put into operation.
aviation mission hour gap
A total of $5,000,000 is provided to help address the
aviation mission hour gap. The Coast Guard is directed to
provide a plan no later than 60 days after the date of
enactment of this Act on how this funding will be allocated.
In addition, the Coast Guard is directed to provide a report
regarding maritime surveillance mission needs in the Air
Station Borinquen area of responsibility.
MAGNet
The Coast Guard is directed not to begin operations of the
Maritime Awareness Global Network (MAGNet) until the
Commandant certifies that this system complies with all
applicable laws and such certification is reviewed by the
Inspector General.
maintenance backlogs
Additional funding of $5,000,000 is provided to address the
Coast Guard's substantial cutter, aircraft, and shore
maintenance backlogs. The Coast Guard is directed to provide
the legacy cutter maintenance cost analysis detailed in the
House report.
training and recruiting
The Coast Guard is directed to submit its Climate
Management Plan to the Committees.
energy shortfalls
Due to increasing energy prices since the fiscal year 2009
budget was submitted, the Coast Guard has $90,562,000 in
increased funding requirements for which no funding has been
requested. This shortfall will have a considerable impact on
Coast Guard operations and the Coast Guard has not been able
to tell the Committees how it will deal with this impact. The
Coast Guard is directed to update the Committees at regular
intervals throughout the year on the impact of high energy
costs on its ability to meet mission requirements and on the
steps it has taken to minimize these impacts.
personnel
No funding is included for acquisition personnel within the
OE appropriation. Bill language is included to allow the
Coast Guard to transfer up to five percent of the OE
appropriation to the Acquisition, Construction, and
Improvements (AC&I) appropriation for personnel,
compensation, and benefits with notice to the Committees
within 10 days of the transfer. Similar bill language is
included in the AC&I appropriation allowing these funds
to be transferred back to the OE appropriation with a 30 day
notification to the Committees. The Coast Guard is directed
to reprogram funding needed to cover any unbudgeted costs of
the military pay raise.
polar icebreakers
One of the Coast Guard's missions is to provide the United
States with the capability to support national interests in
the polar regions. In a report recently submitted, the Coast
Guard stated that the United States will need a maritime
surface and air presence in the Arctic sufficient to support
prevention and response regimes as well as diplomatic
objectives. However, no funding has been requested for the
Coast Guard's aging icebreakers despite its inability to meet
current and projected polar operations mission
responsibilities. The Coast Guard is directed to follow House
report direction regarding the polar icebreaking operating
budget. The Coast Guard should work with the National Science
Foundation in the coming year to renegotiate the existing
polar icebreaking agreement in order to return the budget for
operating and maintaining its polar icebreakers to the Coast
Guard in fiscal year 2010. The AC&I appropriation
includes $30,300,000 to reactivate the USCGC POLAR STAR for
an additional 7-10 years of service life.
operations systems Center
The bill provides $3,600,000 for customized tenant
improvements in conjunction with the Operations Systems
Center expansion project, as detailed in the Senate report.
A-76
No funding is provided for the conduct of Coast Guard A-76
studies in fiscal year 2009.
bay Area Lighthouses
The Coast Guard is directed to comply with House report
direction regarding the Bay Area lighthouses.
Bering Sea Patrols
Within the OE appropriation, $7,600,000 is provided to crew
and operate the USCGC ACUSHNET through the end of fiscal year
2009. The Pacific Area Commander expects to lose between 90
and 120 patrol days in fiscal year 2009 based on the
President's budget proposal to decommission the vessel after
two quarters of operation in fiscal year 2009. This will
negatively impact the Coast Guard's ability to patrol the
Bering Sea and Aleutian Islands. If the Coast Guard
determines that continued operation of the USCGC ACUSHNET is
not viable, the funds should be used to sustain patrol hours
in the Bering Sea and Aleutian Islands which would be lost by
its decommissioning and the Committees should be notified
accordingly.
Coast Guard Yard
The Commandant is directed to comply with Senate report
direction regarding the Coast Guard Yard.
Financial Management Weaknesses
The bill requires the Commandant to submit, and the OIG to
review, a financial management improvement plan. The Coast
Guard must have a workable plan to achieve a clean audit and
none currently exists today. The Coast Guard shall develop
this plan in consultation with the Department's CFO.
Workforce Action Plan
The Coast Guard is directed to comply with Senate report
direction regarding a workforce action plan.
Management and Technology Efficiencies
Within six months after the date of enactment of this Act,
the Coast Guard is directed to report in detail on how the
$68,117,000 total funding reduction requested due to
management and technology efficiencies is being achieved.
Quarterly Acquisition and Mission Emphasis Reports
The Commandant is directed to continue to submit quarterly
acquisition and mission emphasis reports. The acquisition
report shall include information on small boat purchases and
leases made with the OE appropriation.

Response Boat-Medium (RB-M)
Recent studies have identified the lack of response boats
as an impediment to fully implementing the Coast Guard's
mission requirements. A total of $108,000,000 is provided for
RB-Ms in fiscal year 2009 to allow the Coast Guard to
purchase 36 boats, 22 above the request.
Deepwater
The bill provides $1,033,994,000 for the Integrated
Deepwater System Program (Deepwater). Of this amount,
$350,000,000 is unavailable for obligation until the
Committees receive and approve a plan for expenditure, in
accordance with the specified legislative conditions. In
submitting its mandated review of this expenditure plan to
the Committees, GAO is directed to provide an overall
evaluation of the plan's value to the Coast Guard's
management of Deepwater, and a qualitative, descriptive
assessment of the degree with which the Coast Guard has
complied with each legislative requirement.
Long Range Surveillance Aircraft (HC-130J)
The bill provides $13,250,000 to missionize three HC-130Js.
The Coast Guard is directed to provide its finalized HC-130J
Remediation Plan to the Committees within 60 days after the
date of enactment of this Act.
National Security Cutter (NSC)
The bill provides $353,700,000, as requested, for the
National Security Cutter (NSC). It is questionable whether
this amount will be sufficient to purchase the fourth NSC,
according to recent information provided by the Coast Guard.
This is a concern since, in August 2007, the Coast Guard
entered into a Consolidated Contract Action to resolve all
outstanding cost overruns incurred by the NSC contractor due
to economic and customer changes that have occurred over the
past four years. No later than 30 days after the date of
enactment of this Act, the Coast Guard is directed to provide
the Committees with detailed information on all reasons why
there may be nearly a 50 percent increase in the cost of this
cutter and how it plans to manage this procurement within the
dollars provided. To improve its management of this important
program, the Coast Guard is directed to follow House report
direction on the visibility of the contractor's earned value
management system and Senate report direction regarding
information assurance and critical decision points and dates.
Replacement Patrol Boat/FRC-B
The bill provides $115,300,000, as requested, for limited
production of the FRC-B. The Coast Guard is directed to take
all steps necessary to control costs for this procurement,
including conducting a formal design review to ensure that at
least 90 percent of the design drawings are complete by the
critical design review stage. The projected award date for
the FRC-B has been delayed until the first quarter of 2009.
The Coast Guard is directed to provide quarterly briefings to
the Committees on the status of this procurement, including
critical decision points and dates, planned service life
extensions of existing 110-foot patrol boats, and patrol boat
operational metrics.
Polar Icebreakers
The bill provides $30,300,000 for the Coast Guard to
reactivate the USCGC POLAR STAR.
Deepwater Human Capital
The Coast Guard is directed to brief the Committees within
60 days after the date of enactment of this Act on the
results of its workforce forecasting process as detailed in
the Senate report. The Coast Guard also is directed to
address the three acquisition workforce challenges identified
in the House report.
Coast Guard Academy Pier for USCGC EAGLE
The Coast Guard is directed to expeditiously address the
needs of the USCGC EAGLE pier as directed in the Senate
report.
alteration of bridges
The bill provides $16,000,000 for Alteration of Bridges,
with funding allocated as follows:
Burlington Northern Railroad Bridge in Burlington, Iowa......$2,000,000
Canadian Pacific Railway Bridge in La Crosse, Wisconsin.......2,000,000
Chelsea Street Bridge in Chelsea, Massachusetts...............2,000,000
Elgin, Joliet, and Eastern Railway Company Bridge in Morris, I2,000,000
Fourteen Mile Bridge in Mobile, Alabama.......................4,000,000
Galveston Causeway Bridge in Galveston, Texas.................4,000,000
________________
Total.................................................$16,000,000
The Coast Guard is encouraged to begin construction of the
Elgin, Joliet, and Eastern Railway Company Bridge as
expeditiously as possible, as directed in the Senate report.
research, development, test, and evaluation
The bill provides $18,000,000 for Research, Development,
Test, and Evaluation. This includes $2,000,000 for the Coast
Guard to work with entities conducting ballast water
treatment system testing, such as the Great Ships Initiative,
to test the efficacy of such systems and methods in both salt
and fresh water, as detailed in the House report.
medicare-eligible retiree health care fund contribution
GAO is directed to evaluate by June 2009 the process used
to determine the amount charged to the Coast Guard for
Medicare-eligible retiree health care and the relationship of
this amount to the benefits received by Coast Guard retirees.
RETIRED PAY
The bill provides $1,236,745,000 for Retired Pay.
United States Secret Service
SALARIES AND EXPENSES
The bill provides $1,408,729,000 for Salaries and Expenses,
with funding to be allocated as follows:

Secret Service Investigations
The bill provides $331,974,000 for Investigations,
$5,658,000 more than requested. Of the increase, an
additional $4,000,000 is for Secret Service cyber crime
investigations, and an additional $1,658,000 is for
International Field Operations.
Post Presidential Detail
The bill includes $4,500,000, as requested, for the
President's post-Presidency protective detail. The bill does
not include a requested general provision regarding six
months of protection for the Vice President after leaving
office. The Congress passed separate legislation authorizing
this protection.
Discontinued Protective Details
The bill reduces the Secret Service protective budget by
$2,750,000 to account for protective activities the Secret
Service no longer performs.
White House Facilities
The bill includes $33,701,000 for White House mail
screening, $3,000,000 less than requested. The facility to
screen White House mail is under construction and will not be
complete until well into the fiscal year. The reduction
reflects that the Secret Service will not have to pay an
entire year of rent for the new building.
The cost to replace locks at the White House should be paid
by the General Services
[[Page 21550]]
Administration, which maintains offices within the White
House, or the National Park Service, which maintains the
public and residential areas of the complex. However, if the
Secret Service believes there is an urgent need to replace
White House locks prior to February 1, 2009, it is directed
to use funds it had budgeted for security of the White House
complex for this purpose.
ACQUISITION, CONSTRUCTION, IMPROVEMENTS, AND RELATED EXPENSES
The bill provides $4,225,000 for Acquisition, Construction,
Improvements and Related Expenses. Within this total,
$250,000 is provided to fund inflationary cost increases and
$250,000 is to fund a perimeter security and noise abatement
study for the Rowley training facility.
TITLE III--PROTECTION, PREPAREDNESS, RESPONSE, AND RECOVERY
National Protection and Programs Directorate
MANAGEMENT AND ADMINISTRATION
The bill includes $51,350,000 for Management and
Administration of the National Protection and Programs
Directorate (NPPD). Given high vacancy levels that have
persisted at NPPD throughout fiscal year 2008, the request
for additional staff is reduced by $1,500,000. No funding is
provided to move the functions of the Office of
Intergovernmental Programs from FEMA to NPPD, therefore, this
function shall remain within FEMA.
INFRASTRUCTURE PROTECTION AND INFORMATION SECURITY
The bill includes $806,913,000 for Infrastructure
Protection and Information Security (IPIS). Funding levels by
budget activity are as follows:
Infrastructure Protection:

Expenditure Plans
Due to the inadequate level of detail provided in the
budget justifications and other supporting materials, the
bill restricts from obligation half of the funds appropriated
for the National Cyber Security Initiative ($127,462,000) and
the Next Generation Networks program ($25,125,000) until NPPD
submits, and the Committees approve, expenditure plans for
each of these programs. NPPD is directed to include in these
plans the information discussed in the House report.
Chemical Facility Anti-Terrorism Standards and Ammonium Nitrate
Regulation
The bill provides $73,000,000 for implementation of the
Chemical Facility Anti-Terrorism Standards and $5,000,000 to
implement ammonium nitrate regulations.
National Infrastructure Protection Plan Management (NIPP)
The bill provides $30,993,000 for NIPP management and
related Critical Infrastructure and Key Resource
partnerships.
Vulnerability Assessments
The bill provides an increase of $6,000,000 above the
request to accelerate the pace of critical infrastructure and
key resource vulnerability assessments.
Ethanol Transloading Facilities
NPPD is directed to report to the Committees on the results
of a recent vulnerability assessment of an ethanol
transloading facility in Virginia, as discussed in the House
report.
Business Counterintelligence
As discussed in the House report, NPPD is directed to
review the Federal government's efforts to increase awareness
of business counterintelligence and incorporate best
practices into its NIPP management activities.
Office of Bombing Prevention
The bill provides $11,000,000 for the Office of Bombing
Prevention, of which $1,000,000 shall be for the purchase of
the IED-Geospatial Analysis Tool Plus, as discussed in the
House report.
Philadelphia Video Surveillance
As discussed in the House report, the bill provides
$2,000,000 for NPPD to continue deployment of infrastructure
monitoring and crime cameras in the city of Philadelphia.
Underground Critical Infrastructure
The bill provides $3,000,000 for the Department to pilot
methods for securing underground critical infrastructure, as
discussed in the House report.
National Infrastructure Simulation and Analysis Center
As discussed in the Senate report, the bill provides
$20,000,000 for the National Infrastructure Simulation and
Analysis Center, which is led by Sandia and Los Alamos
National Laboratories in New Mexico.
Cyber Security
The bill provides $313,500,000 for activities of the NPPD
National Cyber Security Division (NCSD), including
$254,924,000 for the Department of Homeland Security's share
of the Administration's National Cyber Security Initiative
(NCSI). This funding includes the requested levels for the US
Computer Emergency Response Team and the Cyber Security
Information Sharing and Collaboration program. Additional
details are contained in the classified annex accompanying
this explanatory statement. NPPD is required to submit an
expenditure plan providing more details on the purpose and
goals of the NCSI and how proposed expenditures will meet
them. NPPD is also directed to conduct a privacy impact
assessment for its cyber security initiative and brief the
Committees, as discussed in the Senate report.
Priority Telecommunications Services/Next Generation Networks
The bill provides $58,740,000 for the Priority
Telecommunications Services program and $50,250,000 for the
Next Generation Networks (NGN) program. NPPD is required in
law to submit an expenditure plan detailing the purpose and
goals of the NGN program.
National Command and Coordination Capability
The bill provides $5,963,000 for the National Command and
Coordination Capability (NCCC). NPPD is expected to conduct a
comprehensive assessment of the extensive emergency
communications investments made by the Federal government
since the creation of DHS, and to identify clearly how NCCC
will enhance the multiple existing communications systems
that connect Federal officials with their State and local
counterparts.
Cyber Security Training
The bill provides $3,500,000 for the continued development
and implementation of the Community Cyber Security Maturity
Model at the University of Texas at San Antonio, a training
program designed to prepare State and local officials for
responding to cyber attacks.
Control Systems Security
The bill provides $22,000,000 for the National Cyber
Security Division's efforts to improve security of control
systems, of which $4,000,000 is to establish a power and
cyber system protection, analysis, and testing program at the
Idaho National Laboratory, as discussed in the House report.
Classified Presidential Directives
As discussed in the Senate report, NPPD is strongly
encouraged to re-examine policies on classification of
Presidential Directives that purport to set government policy
or provide critical information affecting State, local, and
private sector officials. Given that many individuals not
employed by the Federal government are not authorized to
access classified documents, it seems problematic that
important homeland security directives may not be available
to the very people responsible for helping to implement them.
United States Visitor and Immigrant Status Indicator Technology
The bill includes $300,000,000 for United States Visitor
Immigrant Status Indicator Technology (US-VISIT). Of this
amount, $75,000,000 may not be obligated until the Committees
receive an expenditure plan as specified in the House report,
with the exception that neither GAO review nor Committee
approval is required.
The bill provides that no funding shall be obligated for
implementation of a final air exit solution until the
Committees receive a report on air exit pilots, which shall
be reviewed by GAO, and test at least two scenarios: (a)
where airlines collect and transmit biometric exit data as
proposed in the notice of proposed rulemaking (DHS-2008-0039,
published on April 24, 2008) and (b) where CBP collects such
information at departure gates.
Within the $300,000,000 appropriated, $20,000,000 is for
identity management and screening services; $66,368,000 is
for the Unique Identity program, and $25,327,000 is to move
US-VISIT operations to a DHS data center, and establish a
second disaster recovery site. The remaining $188,305,000 is
available for operations and maintenance, program management,
and development and implementation of biometric exit
solutions.
Expenditure Plan
In developing its expenditure plan, DHS is directed to
ensure that all required certifications address not only
prior year program performance, systems, and processes, but
also address the elements of the fiscal year 2009 program
outlined in the plan as they relate to procurement, risk
management, and human resource best practices. In addition,
DHS is directed to include in the expenditure
[[Page 21551]]
plan a schedule for the data center transfers and a
description of funding required, as specified in the House
report.
Air Exit Pilots
DHS is directed to carry out the air exit pilots as
outlined in the House report, with the exception that the
pilots should be completed not later than January 31, 2009.
There is no requirement for the report to be approved by the
Committees. DHS is urged to work cooperatively with the
airline industry to design and carry out air exit pilots as
soon as possible.
2010 Budget Submission Information
DHS is directed to include with its fiscal year 2010 budget
request, as specified in the House report, (1) a report on
prospects for implementation of enumeration throughout DHS,
and (2) a full description of the internal DHS governance
process and steps US-VISIT and DHS have taken to define,
manage and coordinate relationships between US-VISIT and
other immigration and border management programs.
Expenditure Plan Certifications
The fiscal year 2008 US-VISIT expenditure plan submitted by
the Department did not comply with requirements of the law;
specifically, it failed to include required information in
support of several certifications. Additionally,
certifications seem to have been based in part on outdated
assessments. DHS is directed to ensure that certifications
submitted in support of future expenditure plans include all
supporting documentation, and address current and prospective
elements of the program.
US-VISIT Must Become a Current-Year Program
Repeated delays in submitting the legislatively required
expenditure plans have resulted in US-VISIT becoming a
forward-funded program. The fact that the fiscal year 2008
plan was not submitted until June 12, 2008, means that nearly
a quarter of the program's budget will carry over into fiscal
year 2009. This practice must stop. In prior years, Congress
has approved virtually all the funding requested for the
program. However, the reduction of $90,300,000 in this bill
is a response to the delay in submitting the expenditure
plans and the resulting unobligated balances. DHS is directed
to submit expenditure plans on a timely basis in order to
ensure that US-VISIT becomes an effective, current-year
program.
Office of Health Affairs
The bill provides $157,191,000 for Office of Health Affairs
(OHA). Of this amount $29,210,000 is for salaries and
expenses. Funds for planning and coordination activities are
available as detailed in the House report.
A total of $111,606,000 is provided for BioWatch. Concerns
about the management of the BioWatch program, as detailed in
the House report, include uncertainty about the relationship
of generation 2.5 systems to generation 3.0 systems; a lack
of clarity about how OHA measures the efficiency and
effectiveness of the systems; and questions about how
BioWatch should fit in with other surveillance efforts. In
addition, it has become evident that, due to changes in
performance standards and other factors, testing and
deployment of the generation 3.0 systems could be delayed for
as much as two years. The National Academy of Sciences (NAS)
is currently evaluating the BioWatch program to assess its
effectiveness and how it might fit in to an enhanced national
public health surveillance system that now relies primarily
on hospitals and the public health system. The results of the
NAS evaluation are expected within a year, and OHA is
expected to utilize those results in its BioWatch planning.
In light of the risks associated with biological threats
and the ability to detect such threats in the most efficient
manner, DHS must strike a careful balance between expediting
the deployment of new technologies and ensuring that such
technologies have been fully validated. In order to help
strike that balance, a total of $34,498,000 is included for

should discuss the process used for identifying specific
areas of focus for the Centers of Excellence as well as
provide a state-by-state breakdown of institutions
participating in each of the centers.
Unobligated Balances
For the past few years, S&T has had high unexpended
obligations in its Research, Development, Acquisition, and
Operations account. S&T has made efforts to reduce these
balances and has initiated a quarterly review to identify
unused funds for work that has not yet been completed. S&T is
directed to brief the Committees on the results of its
quarterly validation and verification reviews and the amounts
available to deobligate, and to identify how S&T plans to use
these funds. The first quarterly brief should occur after the
close of the first quarter of fiscal year 2009 and should
include appropriate documentation on the unobligated
balances. In addition, S&T should submit, as part of its
fiscal year 2010 budget justification, a report on its
unexpended obligated balances and justify instances where
high balances occur.
Domestic Nuclear Detection Office
management and administration
The bill provides $37,500,000 for Management and

The bill provides $103,300,000 for Transformational
Research and Development. This funding level supports
critical ongoing initiatives such as standoff detection and
intelligent personal radiation locators but reduces funding
for new initiatives. The Domestic Nuclear Detection Office
(DNDO) should undertake aggressive efforts within
transformational research and development to fund and analyze
technologies that can detect shielded highly-enriched
uranium.
National Technical Nuclear Forensics Center
The bill provides $16,900,000 for the National Technical
Nuclear Forensics Center. Within this total, $1,000,000 has
been provided for the new fellowship program. This program is
funded at an introductory scale and should grow based on
performance and participation. As discussed in the Senate
report, DNDO shall submit a report on the National Technical

DNDO shall prioritize its development and deployment of
detection equipment based on risk, and as appropriate focus
on other cargo and passenger pathways into the country, such
as bulk rail, general aviation, small pleasure craft, or
other routes it deems the highest risk. As previously
required, DNDO shall continue to provide quarterly briefings
on new technologies pilots and assessments it is conducting
to reduce vulnerabilities at airports, from general aviation
aircraft, in the maritime environment, in rail yards, and at
non-ports of entry land border crossings.
Cargo Advanced Automated Radiography System
DNDO shall submit a report on the cargo advanced automated
radiography system that discusses the Office's progress in

________________
Total.................................................153,491,000
Radiation Portal Monitor Program
The bill provides $120,491,000 for the Radiation Portal
Monitor Program. Within this appropriation, full funding has
been provided for DNDO's effort to procure and deploy
additional polyvinyl toluene (PVT) based fixed radiation
portal monitors to seaports and land borders and to deploy
PVT units in the air cargo environment. A reduction has been
made to the advanced spectroscopic portal (ASP) monitor
program due to further delays in the development of these
technologies. The bill includes a prohibition on full scale
procurement of ASP monitors until the Secretary has certified
and reported to the Committees that a significant increase in
operational effectiveness merits such a decision. If the
Secretary is unable to certify that ASP monitors are more
effective than the current PVT monitors, then DNDO should use
its fiscal year 2009 funding to acquire traditional PVT
radiation portal monitors. The bill also requires separate
and distinct certifications for primary and secondary
deployments in recognition of the inherently unique
operational requirements each presents. The bill prohibits
high-risk concurrent development and production of mutually
dependent software and hardware components of detection
systems. This restriction is included to address the
acquisition and fiscal risks associated with such concurrency
and in response to the testing difficulties DNDO has
encountered over the last fiscal year. Finally, the Secretary
shall consult with the National Academy of Sciences before
making such certification decisions.
TITLE V--GENERAL PROVISIONS
(Including Rescissions of Funds)
Section 501. The bill continues a provision that no part of
any appropriation shall remain available for obligation
beyond the current year unless expressly provided.
Section 502. The bill continues a provision that unexpended
balances of prior appropriations may be merged with new
appropriations accounts and used for the same purpose,
subject to reprogramming guidelines.
Section 503. The bill continues and modifies a provision
that provides authority to reprogram appropriations within an
account and to transfer up to 5 percent between
appropriations accounts with 15-day advance notification of
the Committees. A detailed funding table identifying
programs, projects, and activities is included at the end of
this statement. This table along with funding levels
specified in the report required under subsection (e) shall
serve as the control level for all reprogrammings. These
reprogramming guidelines shall be complied with by all
agencies funded by the Department of Homeland Security
Appropriations Act, 2009.
The Department shall submit reprogramming requests on a
timely basis and provide complete explanations of the
reallocations proposed, including detailed justifications of
the increases and offsets, and any specific impact the
proposed changes will have on the budget request for the
following fiscal year and future-year appropriations
requirements. Each request submitted to the Committees should
include a detailed table showing the proposed revisions at
the account, program, project, and activity level to the
funding and staffing (full-time equivalents and positions)
levels for the current fiscal year and to the levels
requested in the President's budget for the following fiscal
year.
The Department shall manage its programs and activities
within the levels appropriated. The Committees are concerned
with the number of reprogramming proposals submitted for
consideration by the Department and remind the Department
that reprogramming or transfer requests should be submitted
only in the case of an unforeseeable emergency or situation
that could not have been predicted when formulating the
budget request for the current fiscal year. When the
Department submits a reprogramming or transfer request to the
Committees and does not receive identical responses from the
House and Senate, it is the responsibility of the Department
to reconcile the House and Senate differences before
proceeding, and if reconciliation is not possible, to
consider the reprogramming or transfer request disapproved.
The Department is not to submit a reprogramming or transfer
of funds after June 30 except in extraordinary circumstances,
which imminently threaten the safety of human life or the
protection of property. If a reprogramming or transfer is
needed after June 30, the notice should contain sufficient
documentation as to why it meets this statutory exception.
Reprogramming proposals submitted by June 30 can be approved
after that date.
Section 504. The bill continues and modifies a provision
extending the authorization of the Department's Working
Capital Fund in fiscal year 2009. No funds appropriated or

amounts allowed in the President's fiscal year 2009 budget.
Funds provided to the WCF are available until expended. The
Department can only charge components for direct usage of the
WCF and these funds may be used only for the purposes
consistent with the contributing component. Any funds paid in
advance or reimbursed must reflect the full cost of each
service. The WCF shall be subject to the requirements of
section 503 of this Act.
Section 505. The bill continues a provision that not to
exceed 50 percent of unobligated balances remaining at the
end of fiscal year 2009 from appropriations made for salaries

in excess of $1,000,000. If the Secretary determines that
compliance would pose substantial risk to health, human life,
or safety, an award may be made without prior notification
but the Committees shall be notified within five business
days. Additionally, FEMA is required to brief the Committees
five full business days prior to announcing publicly the
intention to make an award under the State Homeland Security
Grant Program, Urban Area Security Initiative, and Regional
Catastrophic Preparedness Grant Program.
Section 508. The bill continues a provision that no agency
shall purchase, construct, or lease additional facilities for
Federal law enforcement training without advance approval of
the Committees.
Section 509. The bill continues a provision that none of
the funds may be used for any construction, repair,
alteration, or acquisition project for which a prospectus,
otherwise required under chapter 33 of Title 40, United
States Code, has not been approved. The bill excludes funds
that may be required for development of a proposed
prospectus.

DIVISION E--MILITARY CONSTRUCTION AND VETERANS AFFAIRS AND RELATED
AGENCIES APPROPRIATIONS ACT, 2009
Following is an explanation of the effect of this division,
which makes appropriations for military construction, the
Department of Veterans Affairs, and related agencies for the
fiscal year 2009. As provided in section 4 of the
consolidated bill, this explanatory statement shall have the
same effect with respect to the allocation of funds and
implementation of this division as if it were a joint
explanatory statement of a committee of conference.
Matters Addressed by Only One Committee.--The language and
allocations set forth in House Report 110-775 and Senate
Report 110-428 should be complied with unless specifically
addressed to the contrary in the bill and this explanatory
statement. Report language included by the House, which is
not changed by the report of the Senate or this explanatory
statement, and Senate report language, which is not changed
by this explanatory statement, is approved by the
Appropriations Committees of both Houses of Congress. This
explanatory statement, while repeating some report language
for emphasis, does not intend to negate the language referred
to above unless expressly provided herein. In cases where the
House or the Senate has directed the submission of a report,
such report is to be submitted to both Houses of Congress.
TITLE I
DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE
Items of General Interest
Incrementally Funded Projects.--The Appropriations
Committees note that the Administration requested several
large military construction projects that can be
incrementally funded, but were instead submitted as large
single-year requests, in accordance with a directive from the
Office of Management and Budget to the Department of Defense
to severely restrict the use of incremental funding for
military construction. The Committees have previously
notified the Administration that they reserve the prerogative
to provide incremental funding where appropriate, in
accordance with authorizing legislation. The Appropriations
Committees continue to believe that military construction
projects should be fully funded or separated into stand-alone
phases when practical. In some cases, however, incremental
funding makes fiscal and programmatic sense. The
Appropriations Committees have therefore agreed that the
following projects will be incrementally funded: Command and
Battle Center, Wiesbaden, Germany; Barracks and Dining, Fort
Carson, Colorado; and Barracks and Dining, Fort Stewart,
Georgia. The Committees fully support the completion of these
projects.
Foreign Currency Fluctuations Account Transfers.--The
Department of Defense is directed to submit to the Committees
on Appropriations of both Houses of Congress a quarterly
report on the Foreign Currency Fluctuations, Construction,
Defense account. This report shall specify the amount
transferred to the Foreign Currency account from each
military construction and family housing account, and all
other accounts for which an appropriation is provided in this
Act, during the preceding fiscal quarter, and the amounts
transferred from the Foreign Currency account to the above
accounts during the same period. This report shall be
submitted no later than 30 days after the close of each
fiscal quarter. In addition, the Department of Defense is
directed to notify the Committees on Appropriations within
seven days of transferring any amount in excess of
$10,000,000 to or from the Foreign Currency account.
Reprogramming Guidelines.--The following reprogramming
guidelines apply for all military construction and family
housing projects. A project or account (including the sub-
elements of an account) which has been specifically reduced
by the Congress in acting on the budget request is considered
to be a congressional interest item and as such, prior
approval is required. Accordingly, no reprogrammings to an
item specifically reduced below the threshold by the Congress
are permitted, except that the Department of Defense may seek
reprogrammings for appropriated increments.
The reprogramming criteria that apply to military
construction projects (25 percent of the funded amount or
$2,000,000, whichever is less) continue to apply to new
housing construction projects and to improvements over
$2,000,000. To provide the services the flexibility to
proceed with construction contracts without disruption or
delay, the costs associated with environmental hazard
remediation such as asbestos removal, radon abatement, lead-
based paint removal or abatement, and any other legislated
environmental hazard remediation may be excluded, provided
that such remediation requirements could not be reasonably
anticipated at the time of the budget submission. This
exclusion applies to projects authorized in this budget year,
as well as projects authorized in prior years for which
construction has not been completed. Planning and design
costs associated with military construction and family
housing projects may also be excluded from these guidelines.
In instances where prior approval to a reprogramming
request for a project or account has been received from the
Committees on Appropriations, the adjusted amount approved
becomes the new base for any future increase or decrease via
below-threshold reprogrammings (provided that the project or
account is not a congressional interest item as defined
above).
In addition to these guidelines, the services are directed
to adhere to the guidance for military construction
reprogrammings and notifications, including the pertinent
statutory authorities contained in DOD Financial Management
Regulation 7000.14-R and relevant updates and policy
memoranda.
Submission of Overdue Reports.--The Appropriations
Committees have previously expressed concern at the
Department's frequent failure to comply with deadlines for
submitting mandated reports. Again in 2008, a number of
reports related to major Department initiatives were not
delivered on time, if at all, nor was notice received from
the Department as to why the reports were late or when they
would be submitted. Many of these reports are planning
documents, intended to demonstrate that the Department is
adequately coordinating its several ongoing initiatives, such
as the Global Defense Posture moves, the Grow the Force
initiative, and base realignment and closure. The failure to
submit these reports contributes to the Committees' concern
that the Department may not have developed a thorough
blueprint for some of these programs prior to execution, nor
adequately considered all of the infrastructure ramifications
of carrying out significant force reorganizations while
conducting two wars. Reports that have been mandated by the
Committees are necessary to ensure proper congressional
oversight and to inform congressional decisions related to
the Department's budget requests; the failure to submit them
in a timely manner is unacceptable. The Secretary of Defense
and the service secretaries therefore are directed to submit
all reports that are currently overdue no later than 30 days
after the enactment of this Act, and to assiduously comply
with future reporting deadlines. In the event that a deadline
is not met, the Department shall submit a written explanation
for the failure to deliver the report, and an expected date
of delivery, no later than 7 days after the deadline.
Military Quality of Life Initiative.--The Appropriations
Committees include funding to provide additional quality of
life facilities for military personnel and their families,
continuing an initiative that began in fiscal year 2008.
Through hearings, field visits, and briefings from the
Department, Army and Marine Corps trainee and recruit
housing, and medical treatment facilities, have been
identified as priority requirements in need of greater
funding. The bill therefore includes $122,200,000 for three
additional Army and Marine Corps barracks projects, and
$110,735,000 for additional medical treatment facility design
and construction. The medical treatment facility funding will
provide $57,900,000 to renovate the hospital at Camp Lejeune,
which will add 7,410 marines under the Grow the Force
initiative, and $52,835,000 to accelerate planning and design
for a hospital replacement at Fort Bliss, which will receive
four additional brigades by 2012 under Army plans for base
realignment and closure and global restationing.
Air National Guard Initiative.--The Air National Guard has
a large unfunded requirement for fire stations at flying
locations, yet in the past two budget submissions, the
Administration has requested no funding for Air National
Guard fire stations. In congressional testimony on the fiscal
year 2009 budget request, the Air Force acknowledged that it
was accepting ``manageable risk'' in facilities and
infrastructure funding to help finance the recapitalization
of its aging air and space force. The Air National Guard
military construction budget request for fiscal year 2009 was
$34,374,000, a 60 percent decrease from the previous year's
request. Due to the critical need for firefighting capability
at Air National Guard flying locations, the bill includes
$28,000,000 to expedite the construction of Air National
Guard fire stations.
Army National Guard Initiative.--The Director of the Army
National Guard has identified emerging facility requirements
needed to support the growth of Army National Guard missions
vital to homeland security and the ongoing war on terror,
including aircraft maintenance, unit training, and
interagency training. The bill includes $147,000,000 to
expedite construction of facilities needed to support these
emerging requirements.

with an increased emphasis on applying renewable energy
resources to enhance energy security at military
installations, is warranted. The Department therefore is
directed to allocate the $10,000,000 in funding provided
above the request for this program to planning, analysis, and
design work associated with the development of multi-megawatt
renewable energy and multi-building energy efficiency
projects on and near military lands, with first priority

TITLE II
DEPARTMENT OF VETERANS AFFAIRS
Items of Interest
New GI Bill implementation.--Public Law 110-252 provided
$100,000,000 for salaries and expenses and $20,000,000 for
information technology to implement the ``Post-9/11 Veterans
Educational Assistance Act of 2008''. The Department has
testified to the Congress its intent to implement this
benefit by accelerating the development of The Educational
Expert System (TEES) and expect this automated system to be
operational by August 1, 2009, when the Act becomes
effective. The Committees are greatly concerned that the
Department is relying exclusively on the success of this
automation to ensure a timely, satisfactory implementation of
this program. The Committees agree that veterans should be
able to apply for educational benefits electronically but
also want to ensure that these veterans are permitted to
apply using a non-electronic method. Additionally, the
Committees agree that these veterans should be able to obtain
assistance from the Department of Veterans Affairs
educational benefit employees for any questions or concerns
that they may have when filing their application. Further,
the Committees also agree that the implementation of this
program should not cause the Department to lose ground in
improving the timeliness of claims processing for other
educational benefits. The Committees direct the Department to
report within 30 days of enactment of this Act on the plan to
develop and deploy TEES for this program, its contingency
plan if delays preclude deployment by August 1, 2009, the
process that will allow veterans to file applications by a
non-electronic means, the process that will allow veterans to
obtain the assistance of educational benefit employees, the
metrics that the Department will use to measure veteran
satisfaction with claims processing for this program, and the
steps the Department will take to ensure that implementation
of this benefit does not negatively impact other educational
benefits programs. The Committees direct the Department to
include in its quarterly status report to the Committees the
progress made by the Department to meet the milestones for
the implementation of TEES as presented on September 11,
2008, to the Congress, the average days to process
educational benefits claims for the other educational
benefits programs, the average days to process claims for
this program upon implementation, and the amounts executed to
implement this program including TEES. In addition, the
Committees direct the Office of Inspector General to provide
a quarterly report to the Committees to include a review of
the Department's success in meeting project milestones, an
assessment of the implementation plan, and identification of
any issues that may prevent the timely, satisfactory
implementation of this program.
Veterans Benefits Administration
compensation and pensions
(including transfer of funds)
The bill appropriates $43,111,681,000 for Compensation and
Pensions. Of the amount provided, not more than $26,798,000

Support and Compliance, and Information Technology Systems
for reimbursement of necessary expenses in implementing
provisions of title 38.

The bill appropriates $3,832,944,000 for Readjustment
Benefits. The amount appropriated is $746,000,000 more than
the budget request and reflects the partial year cost of the
Post-9/11 Veterans Educational Assistance Act of 2008, which
becomes effective on August 1, 2009.
