        Energy's national laboratories--
                    (A) are properly aligned with the Department's 
                strategic priorities;
                    (B) have clear, well understood, and properly

            (3) The Commission shall also determine whether there are 
        opportunities to more effectively and efficiently use the 
        capabilities of the national laboratories, including 
        consolidation and realignment, reducing overhead costs, 
        reevaluating governance models using industrial and academic 
        benchmarks for comparison, and assessing the impact of DOE's 
        oversight and management approach. In its evaluation, the 
        Commission should also consider the cost and effectiveness of 
        using other research, development, and technology centers and 
        universities as an alternative to meeting DOE's energy and 
        national security goals.
    (d) Response by the Secretary of Energy.--
            (1) The Secretary of Energy shall, by no later than 
        February 1, 2015, transmit to Appropriations Committees of the

        or disapproval of the Commission's recommendations and an 
        implementation plan for approved recommendations.

Senate shall receive a 30-day advance notification with a detailed 
explanation of any waiver or adjustment made by the National Nuclear 
Security Administration's Fee Determining Official to at-risk award
