                           GENERAL PROVISIONS

                          DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY

    Sec. 301. Contract Competition.--(a)(1) None of the funds in this 
or any other appropriations Act for fiscal year 2007 or any previous 
fiscal year may be used to make payments for a noncompetitive 
management and operating contract unless the Secretary of Energy has 
published in the Federal Register and submitted to the Committees on 
Appropriations of the House of Representatives and the Senate a written 
notification, with respect to each such contract, of the Secretary's 
decision to use competitive procedures for the award of the contract, 
or to not renew the contract, when the term of the contract expires.
    (2) Paragraph (1) does not apply to an extension for up to 2 years 
of a noncompetitive management and operating contract, if the extension 
is for purposes of allowing time to award competitively a new contract, 
to provide continuity of service between contracts, or to complete a 
contract that will not be renewed.
    (b) In this section:
            (1) The term ``noncompetitive management and operating 
        contract'' means a contract that was awarded more than 50 years 
        ago without competition for the management and operation of 
        Ames Laboratory, Argonne National Laboratory, and Lawrence 
        Livermore National Laboratory.
            (2) The term ``competitive procedures'' has the meaning 
        provided in section 4 of the Office of Federal Procurement 
        Policy Act (41 U.S.C. 403) and includes procedures described in 
        section 303 of the Federal Property and Administrative Services 
        Act of 1949 (41 U.S.C. 253) other than a procedure that 
        solicits a proposal from only one source.
    (c) For all management and operating contracts other than those 
listed in subsection (b)(1), none of the funds appropriated by this Act 
may be used to award a management and operating contract, or award a 
significant extension or expansion to an existing management and 
operating contract, unless such contract is awarded using competitive 
procedures or the Secretary of Energy grants, on a case-by-case basis, 
a waiver to allow for such a deviation. The Secretary may not delegate 
the authority to grant such a waiver. At least 60 days before a 
contract award for which the Secretary intends to grant such a waiver, 
the Secretary shall submit to the Committees on Appropriations of the 
House of Representatives and the Senate a report notifying the 
Committees of the waiver and setting forth, in specificity, the 
substantive reasons why the Secretary believes the requirement for 
competition should be waived for this particular award.
    Sec. 302. Workforce Restructuring.--None of the funds appropriated 
by this Act may be used to--

    Sec. 305. Unexpended Balances.--The unexpended balances of prior 
appropriations provided for activities in this Act may be available to 
the same appropriation accounts for such activities established 
pursuant to this title. Available balances may be merged with funds in 
the applicable established accounts and thereafter may be accounted for 
as one fund for the same time period as originally enacted.
    Sec. 306. Bonneville Power Administration Service Territory.--None 
of the funds in this or any other Act for the Administrator of the 
Bonneville Power Administration may be used to enter into any agreement 
to perform energy efficiency services outside the legally defined 
Bonneville service territory, with the exception of services provided 
internationally, including services provided on a reimbursable basis, 
unless the Administrator certifies in advance that such services are 
not available from private sector businesses.
    Sec. 307. User Facilities.--When the Department of Energy makes a 
user facility available to universities or other potential users, or 
seeks input from universities or other potential users regarding 
significant characteristics or equipment in a user facility or a 
proposed user facility, the Department shall ensure broad public notice 
of such availability or such need for input to universities and other 
potential users. When the Department of Energy considers the 
participation of a university or other potential user as a formal 
partner in the establishment or operation of a user facility, the 
Department shall employ full and open competition in selecting such a 
partner. For purposes of this section, the term ``user facility'' 
includes, but is not limited to: (1) a user facility as described in 
section 2203(a)(2) of the Energy Policy Act of 1992 (42 U.S.C. 
13503(a)(2)); (2) a National Nuclear Security Administration Defense 
Programs Technology Deployment Center/User Facility; and (3) any other 
Departmental facility designated by the Department as a user facility.
    Sec. 308. Intelligence Activities.--Funds appropriated by this or 
any other Act, or made available by the transfer of funds in this Act,

the Congress for purposes of section 504 of the National Security Act 
of 1947 (50 U.S.C. 414) during fiscal year 2007 until the enactment of 
the Intelligence Authorization Act for fiscal year 2007.
    Sec. 309. Laboratory Directed Research and Development.--Of the 
funds made available by the Department of Energy for activities at 
government-owned, contractor-operator operated laboratories funded in 
this Act, the Secretary may authorize a specific amount, not to exceed 
8 percent of such funds, to be used by such laboratories for 
laboratory-directed research and development: Provided, That the 
Secretary may also authorize a specific amount not to exceed 3 percent 
of such funds, to be used by the plant manager of a covered nuclear 
weapons production plant or the manager of the Nevada Site Office for 
plant or site-directed research and development.
    Sec. 310. Technology Commercialization Fund.--None of the funds 
made available by this Act may be used for technology commercialization 
activities funded via a tax on applied energy research, development, 
demonstration, and commercial application activities by the Department 
of Energy as authorized by section 1001(e) of title X of the Energy 
Policy Act of 2005.
