Energy shall submit to the congressional defense committees a plan for 
conducting, as part of the Department of Energy personnel assurance 
programs, an interim counterintelligence polygraph program consisting 
of polygraph examinations of Department of Energy employees, or 
contractor employees, at Department facilities. The purpose of 
examinations under the interim program is to minimize the potential for 
release or disclosure of classified data, materials, or information 
until the program required under subsection (b) is in effect.
    (2) The Secretary may exclude from examinations under the interim 
program any position or class of positions (as determined by the 
Secretary) for which the individual or individuals in such position or 
class of positions--

                not afford an opportunity, through action solely by the 
                individual or individuals, to inflict damage on or 
                impose risks to national security; and
                    (ii) have duties, functions, or responsibilities

            (B) do not have routine access to top secret Restricted 
        Data.

under the interim program receive protections as provided under part 40 
of title 49, Code of Federal Regulations.
    (4) To ensure that administration of the interim program does not 
disrupt safe operations of a facility, the plan shall insure 
notification of the management of the facility at least 14 days in 
advance of any examination scheduled under the interim program for any 
employees of the facility.
    (5) The plan shall include procedures under the interim program 
for--
            (A) identifying and addressing so-called ``false positive'' 
        results of polygraph examinations; and
            (B) ensuring that adverse personnel actions not be taken 
        against an individual solely by reason of the individual's 
        physiological reaction to a question in a polygraph 
        examination, unless reasonable efforts are first made to 
        independently determine through alternative means the veracity 
        of the individual's response to the question.
    (b) New Counterintelligence Polygraph Program.--(1) Not later than 
six months after obtaining the results of the Polygraph Review, the 
Secretary shall prescribe a proposed rule containing requirements for a 
counterintelligence polygraph program for the Department of Energy. The 
purpose of the program is to minimize the potential for release or 
disclosure of classified data, materials, or information.
    (2) The Secretary shall prescribe the proposed rule under this 
subsection in accordance with the provisions of subchapter II of 
chapter 5 of title 5, United States Code (commonly referred to as the

Secretary may include in requirements under the proposed rule any 
requirement or exclusion provided for in paragraphs (2) through (5) of 
subsection (a).
    (4) In prescribing the proposed rule under this subsection, the 
Secretary shall take into account the results of the Polygraph Review.
    (c) Repeal of Existing Polygraph Program.--Section 3154 of the 
Department of Energy Facilities Safeguards, Security, and 
Counterintelligence Enhancement Act of 1999 (subtitle D of title XXXI 
of Public Law 106-65; 42 U.S.C. 7383h) is repealed.
    (d) Report on Further Enhancement of Personnel Security Program.--
(1) Not later than December 31, 2002, the Administrator for Nuclear 
Security shall submit to Congress a report setting forth the 
recommendations of the Administrator for any legislative action that 
the Administrator considers appropriate in order to enhance the 
personnel security program of the Department of Energy.
    (2) Any recommendations under paragraph (1) regarding the use of 
polygraphs shall take into account the results of the Polygraph Review.
    (e) Definitions.--In this section:
            (1) The term ``Polygraph Review'' means the review of the 
        Committee to Review the Scientific Evidence on the Polygraph of 
        the National Academy of Sciences.

            Subtitle F--Rocky Flats National Wildlife Refuge

SEC. 3171. SHORT TITLE.

    This subtitle may be cited as the ``Rocky Flats National Wildlife 
Refuge Act of 2001''.

SEC. 3172. FINDINGS AND PURPOSES.

    (a) Findings.--Congress finds the following:
            (1) The Federal Government, through the Atomic Energy 
        Commission, acquired the Rocky Flats site in 1951 and began 
        operations there in 1952. The site remains a Department of 
        Energy facility. Since 1992, the mission of the Rocky Flats 
        site has changed from the production of nuclear weapons 
        components to cleanup and closure in a manner that is safe, 
        environmentally and socially responsible, physically secure, 
        and cost-effective.
            (2) The site has generally remained undisturbed since its 
        acquisition by the Federal Government.
            (3) The State of Colorado is experiencing increasing growth 
        and development, especially in the metropolitan Denver Front 
        Range area in the vicinity of the Rocky Flats site. That growth 
        and development reduces the amount of open space and thereby 
        diminishes for many metropolitan Denver communities the vistas 
        of the striking Front Range mountain backdrop.
            (4) Some areas of the site contain contamination and will 
        require further response action. The national interest requires 
        that the ongoing cleanup and closure of the entire site be 
        completed safely, effectively, and without unnecessary delay 
        and that the site thereafter be retained by the United States 
        and managed so as to preserve the value of the site for open 
        space and wildlife habitat.
            (5) The Rocky Flats site provides habitat for many wildlife 
        species, including a number of threatened and endangered 
        species, and is marked by the presence of rare xeric tallgrass 
        prairie plant communities. Establishing the site as a unit of 
        the National Wildlife Refuge System will promote the 
        preservation and enhancement of those resources for present and 
        future generations.
    (b) Purposes.--The purposes of this subtitle are--
            (1) to provide for the establishment of the Rocky Flats 
        site as a national wildlife refuge following cleanup and 
        closure of the site;
            (2) to create a process for public input on refuge 
        management before transfer of administrative jurisdiction to 
        the Secretary of the Interior; and
            (3) to ensure that the Rocky Flats site is thoroughly and 
        completely cleaned up.
