        Weapons activities.--This program includes the following activities:
            Stockpile Stewardship.--This activity provides for the research,
        development, and engineering capabilities to support the safety and
        reliability of the nuclear weapons stockpile, without underground
        nuclear testing, through a science-based Stockpile Stewardship
        program. The core stewardship program supports Stockpile Stewardship
        by maintaining core competencies at the weapons laboratories, and
        through research on enhanced safety and reliability of the enduring
        stockpile, dismantlement techniques, waste minimization, and
        pollution prevention. In addition, the core stewardship program
        maintains the capability to execute an underground nuclear test if
        directed by the President. Research and development on inertial
        confinement fusion is also included and the transfer of nonsensitive
        Defense Programs' funded technology to the private sector is
        promoted. The program also supports facility construction and
        maintenance for the nuclear weapons laboratories and the Nevada Test
        Site.
            Stockpile Management.--This activity provides for the
        maintenance of the U.S. nuclear weapons stockpile, capabilities to
        modify or produce new weapons if required, lifetime surveillance of
        the stockpile, and retirement and disposal of weapons and weapon
        components. The program supports facility construction and
        maintenance for the nuclear weapons production plants. This program
        also supports the consolidation of nonnuclear manufacturing
        activities. The Stockpile Management program also supports
        activities that include maintenance of technical and operational
        capabilities for responding to nuclear/radiological accidents and
        incidents worldwide. A major initiative under the Stockpile
        Management program is the dual-track strategy for a new tritium
        source to provide tritium for the Nation's enduring nuclear weapons
        stockpile. This program also provides for nuclear materials
        surveillance and technical support activities including safety and
        safeguards/security oversight activities for nuclear materials
        located at Defense Program sites and former Defense Program
        facilities.
            Weapons Program Direction.--This program provides personnel and
        contractual services for the Federal management, direction, and the
        administration of selected Defense Programs' missions. The
        Secretary's streamlining goals to reduce total staffing levels,
        improve supervisor/employee ratios, and reduce the number of
        organizational components are met within this program.

        Environmental Management.--This program encompasses the following
    defense-related activities:

        The Office of Environmental Management must safely manage the
    generation, handling, treatment, storage, transportation and disposal of
    DOE nuclear and hazardous waste. The 1997 budget request will support
    the following major program areas:
            Environmental Restoration.--Provides for assessments,
        characterization, remediation, and decontamination and
        decommissioning at contaminated DOE facilities and sites. Various
        amounts and types of waste have accumulated at these facilities and
        sites as a result of past departmental activities spanning nearly
        five decades.
            Waste Management.--Provides for the safe, effective and
        efficient management of wastes generated by defense activities,
        through minimization, treatment, storage or disposal of various
        waste types including radioactive, hazardous, mixed or sanitary
        wastes in compliance with applicable local, State, and Federal
        requirements and internal Department of Energy requirements.
            Technology Development.--Provides for comprehensive applied
        research, development demonstration, testing and evaluation
        activities which will develop and apply more effective technologies
        for meeting the Department of Energy's environmental management
        goals.
            Environmental Science Program.--Provides for the development of
        a long-term basic research program for environmental problems so
        that breakthrough approaches will lead to significantly reduced
        cleanup costs and risks to workers and the public; and to bridge the
        gap between broad fundamental research that has wide-ranging
        applicability such

    [[Page 435]]
        as that performed in DOE's Office of Energy Research, and the needs-
        driven technology development that is conducted in EM's Office of
        Technology Development.
            Nuclear Material and Facility Stabilization.--Directs the
        stabilization of surplus nuclear materials, the preparation of
        surplus nuclear materials for disposition, and the deactivation of
        surplus facilities.
            Site Operations.--Provides Headquarters policy direction for
        landlord planning and budgeting including reducing site
        infrastructure costs and managing workforce restructuring. Further,
        the Office of Site Operations manages the national Transportation
        Program and the national Pollution Prevention Program and provides
        leadership for crosscutting issues raised by the field and/or
        Headquarters, as well as serving as an advocate for the field at
        Headquarters.
            Policy and Management.--Provides funding for crosscutting
        functions such as public accountability, finance, safety and health,
        and strategic planning.
            EM Program Direction.--Provides salaries and benefits and other
        contractual support costs for full-time equivalents at Headquarters
        and in the field which support the Environmental Management Program.
            EM Privatization.--Provides up-front funding for DOE support of
        privatization of various DOE environmental management projects, such
        as one project to support commercial demonstrations of nuclear waste
        treatment facilities. These projects will demonstrate the financial
        and technical feasibility of private sector construction and
        operation of radioactive waste treatment facilities, through the use
        of commercial capital and technology in return for service fees to
        be paid by DOE for processing nuclear waste. This process is
        estimated to save 25% in life cycle costs over the traditional
        approach of designing, constructing and operating a government-owned
        facility. In addition, $182 million in budget authority is being
        requested as part of a Government-wide general provision for up-
        front funding of other privatization efforts. This funding is part
        of a Government-wide effort to improve planning and budgeting for
        projects of this type.
            The EM program has made significant progress in establishing a
        system for measuring and improving performance. The program has
        developed a strategic plan with six key objectives: (1) manage and
        eliminate urgent risks and threats in the DOE system; (2) provide a
        safe workplace; (3) change system to bring it into managerial and
        financial control; (4) increase outcome orientation; (5) focus the
        technology development program on DOE's major environmental
        challenges; (6) develop strong partnerships between DOE and its
        stakeholders.
            As an integral part of reinventing DOE, the Environmental
        Management (EM) program has begun implementing changes in order to
        contribute $4.4 billion in outlay savings over a five-year period,
        beginning in FY 1996. The savings commitment will require
        substantial changes in the way the EM program is run. These savings
        will be achieved through:
             Realizing significant increases in productivity and
        efficiency.
             Working closely with EPA and State regulators to
        prioritize budgets at each site.
             Reauthorizing Superfund, particularly the land-use
        provisions in the Administration's Superfund proposal.

        Other defense activities.--This program includes the following
    activities:

            Verification and Control Technology.--This activity supports the
        development and execution of U.S. national security and foreign
        policy in the areas of treaty verification and implementation,
        intelligence, arms control and nonproliferation. Of the funds
        requested, $95M is for assistance to nations of the former Soviet
        Union for protection, control and accounting of nuclear materials.
        This key nonproliferation program is among the Administration's
        highest priorities.
            Nuclear Safeguards and Security.--This activity provides for the
        development of measures to assure adequate and effective protection
        of nuclear weapons, nuclear materials, and facilities against theft,
        sabotage, espionage, and terrorist activity. Also included is the
        program which protects classified and unclassified sensitive
        information critical to the national security.
            Security Investigations.--This activity ensures that the common
        defense and the security of the United States will not be endangered
        by the granting of security clearances for personnel who, in the
        performance of their official duties, must have access to restricted
        data, national security information or special nuclear material, or
        who occupy a designated critical sensitive position.
            Emergency Management.--This activity provides a single point of
        contact and control for all Departmental emergency management and
        threat assessment related activities and ensures an integrated
        Departmental response to emergencies affecting Departmental
        operations and activities or requiring Departmental assistance.
            Nonproliferation and National Security Program Direction.--This
        program provides for the personnel and contractual services for all
        Federal management, direction, and administration required to
        carryout the Nonproliferation and National Security programs'
        missions.
            Naval Reactors.--This program performs the design, development,
        and testing necessary to provide the Navy with safe, militarily
        effective nuclear propulsion plants in keeping with the Nation's
        defense requirements. In 1994, the nuclear powered fleet steamed its
        100 millionth mile on nuclear power employing high standards of
        safety which ensured the protection of the public and the
        environment. During 1997, the program expects to reach 4,700
        cumulative reactor-years of safe operation, and will continue to
        support and improve operating reactors and plant components to
        further this record. In addition, the program will continue to
        develop nuclear reactor plant components/systems for the Navy's new
        attack submarine, procure equipment needs for development and
        testing activities, and maintain or shutdown aging facilities as
        appropriate. In 1997, inactivation will continue on six of the
        program's eight land based prototypes which have been or will be
        shut down.
            Environment, safety and health (Defense).--The Office of
        Environment, Safety and Health is a corporate resource that provides
        Departmental leadership and management to protect the workers,
        public, and environment. This is demonstrated by conducting
        independent oversight of the Department's environment, safety,
        health, and safeguards and security programs; and by providing
        technical assistance, resources, and information sharing. The
        programs in the Other Defense Activities are Oversight, Health
        Studies, and Program Direction. The goal of these programs is to
        improve the performance and effectiveness of the Department's
        workforce and contractor employees in matters related to
        environment, safety, health, and safeguards and security through:
            Worker and Community Transition.--In accordance with Section
        3161 of the National Defense Authorization Act of 1993, DOE is
        responsible for mitigating the impact on workers and communities
        that results from reductions in the workforce at defense nuclear
        facilities. This program provides for the development and
        implementation of plans to provide options to assist workers
        affected by work force restructuring including preference in hiring,
        outplacement assistance, relocation assistance, and incentives for
        early retirement or separation. These plans also provide impact
        assistance to local communities for economic development.
            Fissile Materials Disposition.--The Fissile Materials
        Disposition Program is responsible for the Department's technical
        and management activities to provide for the safe, secure,
        environmentally sound future storage of all weapons-usable fissile
        materials and the disposition of fissile materials declared surplus
        to national defense needs. Near term efforts involve designing and
        demonstrating an integrated system to disassemble plutonium weapons
        components and convert the plutonium to stable, inspectable forms
        suitable for long-term storage and disposition. In addition, the
        Program directs research and development and technical
        demonstrations of plutonium disposition technologies and the design
        phase for site-specific long-term storage configurations involving a
        coordinated approach to the Department's inventory of weapons-usable
        fissile materials. Program efforts also include technical and
        industrial activities associated with the conversion of surplus
        weapons-usable highly enriched uranium to non-weapons usable low
        enriched uranium suitable for use in commercial power reactors.

        High energy physics.--This research program focuses on gaining
    insights into the fundamental constituents of matter, the fundamental
    forces in nature, and the transformations between matter and energy at
    the most elementary level. The program encompasses both experimental and
    theoretical particle physics research and related advanced accelerator
    and detector technology R&D. The primary mode of experi

    [[Page 438]]
    mental research involves the study of collisions of energetic particles
    using large particle accelerators or colliding beam facilities.

        Research in 1997 will continue to focus on studies of known
    fundamental particle constituents, the search for new particle
    constituents, and the pursuit of a unified description of the four
    fundamental forces in nature.

        In addition to contributing to breakthrough discoveries such as the
    existence of the top quark, high energy physics research enhances
    national economic competitiveness. State-of-the-art technology developed
    for accelerators and detectors contribute to progress in fields such as
    fast electronics, high-speed computing, superconducting magnet
    technology, and high-power radio frequency devices. High energy physics
    research also continues to make major contributions to accelerator
    technology and provides the expertise necessary for the expansion of
    such technology into fields such as medical diagnostics, and applied
    research using synchrotron light sources.

        The 1997 high energy physics budget request includes a $13.2 million
    increase over the 1996 enacted level. The proposed increase will support
    the continued operation of all three of the Department's major high
    energy physics facilities: the Tevatron, the Stanford Linear Collider
    (SLC), and the Alternating Gradient Synchrotron (AGS). In addition,
    increases are provided for R&D related to U.S. participation in the
    Large Hadron Collider (LHC) project at CERN and fabrication of a new
    detector for the new B-Factory project at SLAC. The proposed increase is
    consistent with the recommendations of the High Energy Physics Advisory
    Panel expert subpanel that advised the Department on the appropriate
    future path for the Department's high energy physics program in the wake
    of the cancellation of the Superconducting Super Collider (SSC) project
    in 1993.

        The high energy physics R&D request provides funding for advanced
    accelerator and detector R&D that is necessary for next-generation high
    energy particle accelerators. The high energy physics construction
    request provides for continuation of the new Main Injector ring at the
    Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory and the B-Factory upgrade at the
    Stanford Linear Accelerator Center (SLAC).

        A total of $205 million in budget authority is being requested for
    the continued construction of the Main Injector ring and the B-Factory
    projects. Of this amount, $133 million is being requested as a part of
    this appropriation for the obligations to be incurred for the projects
    in 1997. An additional $72 million in budget authority is being
    requested as part of a Government-wide general provision in order to
    fully fund the completion of these projects. This additional amount is
    part of a Government-wide effort to improve planning and budgeting for
    the acquisition of fixed assets.

        Superconducting Super Collider.--The Department will continue the
    orderly termination of the Superconducting Super Collider (SSC) in 1997,
    as directed by Congress in the 1994 Energy and Water Development
    Appropriations Act. No additional funding for such activities is
    requested in 1997.

        Nuclear Physics.--The goal of the nuclear physics program is to
    understand the interactions and structure of atomic nuclei and to
    investigate fundamental particles and forces of nature as manifested in
    nuclear matter. In 1997, the program will continue to focus on the role
    of quarks in the composition and interactions of nuclei, the application
    of nuclear physics methods to astrophysical problems, the properties of
    neutrinos, and the mechanisms by which colliding nuclei exchange mass,
    energy, and angular momentum.

        The nuclear physics program supports and provides experimental
    equipment to qualified scientists and research groups conducting
    experiments at nuclear physics accelerator facilities. In addition,
    nuclear physics accelerators generate many of the radioisotopes used for
    medical diagnosis and treatments; support several cooperative programs
    in biomedical research and atomic physics; and provide training
    opportunities for health physicists concerned with radiation-effects on
    humans.

        The CEBAF experimental program began in FY 1996 and will continue in
    FY 1997 with the conduct of research in all three experimental halls.
    Experimental operations have also been initiated at the Radioactive Ion
    Beam facility in Oak Ridge National Laboratory and will continue in FY
    1997. Operation of ATLAS (BNL), TAGS (BNL), and the 88-inch cyclotron
    (LBNL) will be supported, as will the operation of the university-based
    accelerator laboratories.

        A total of $207 million in budget authority is being requested for
    the continued construction of the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC)
    at Brookhaven at the revised baseline cost and schedule. Of this amount,
    $76 million is being requested as a part of this appropriation for the
    obligations to be incurred for the project in 1997. An additional $131
    million in budget authority is being requested as part of a Government-
    wide general provision in order to fully fund this project. This
    additional amount is part of a Government-wide effort to improve
    planning and budgeting for the acquisition of fixed assets.

        General science program direction.--Provides direction, management,
    and administrative support to high energy and nuclear physics programs
    within general science.

        The purpose of energy supply research and development activities is
    to develop new energy technologies and improve existing energy
    technologies. Included in this mission are basic and applied research
    and targeted programs in technology development and market deployment.

        This account provides funds for operating expenses, capital
    equipment and construction projects for the advancement of the various
    energy technologies under examination in the energy supply, research and
    development mission.

        Solar and renewable energy technology.--A strong, balanced program
    is proposed for FY 1997 that will contribute toward strengthening the
    Nation's energy security, enhancing global sales of U.S. energy
    products, and increasing industrial competitiveness and federal
    technology transfer. Program activities range from basic cost-shared
    research in universities and national laboratories to applied research,
    development, and demonstration in full partnership with private sector
    manufacturers.

        The FY 1997 program continues to work in partnership with industry
    to develop and promote the use of solar energy. Specific goals or
    activities of solar energy programs include: (1) in photovoltaics: an
    industry-driven effort in research, production, engineering, and market
    development; (2) in solar buildings: a focus on cooperative industry and
    utility efforts to effectively use advanced solar technology for water
    heating; (3) in solar thermal: lowering the operating costs of existing
    trough systems and developing dish/Stirling and central receiver systems
    for commercial electric power generation; (4) in wind energy: developing
    and testing utility-grade wind turbines in collaboration with utilities
    and industry; and (5) in biofuels: continued R&D to achieve further
    reductions in biomass energy costs, and the biochemical conversion of
    biomass and feedstock development. In addition to these specific
    technologies, the FY 1997 Budget Request calls for taking advantage of
    the synergies between emerging biomass power technologies and new
    biomass liquid fuel technologies. These developments raise the prospect
    of profitable ``energy crop'' farming by rural Americans early in the
    next century, accompanied by improved rural economic development,
    increased environmental protection in both urban and rural areas, and
    new global market opportunities for power technology providers.

        The Solar Energy program also includes ongoing support for: (1) the
    interagency Committee on Renewable Commerce and Trade (CORECT), (2)
    commercialization and demonstration joint ventures, and (3) renewable
    energy, outreach information, and technical assistance programs.

        The Geothermal Energy program supports work with industry and the
    utility sector to reduce the life-cycle cost of producing electricity
    with geothermal resources. The Hydropower program addresses the primary
    environmental mitigation issues associated with licensing and sustaining
    hydropower production. The Electric Energy Systems program includes
    studies on health effects of electric and magnetic fields, and
    development of materials and devices employing advanced high temperature
    superconducting technology. Energy Storage is focused on battery energy
    storage for use by utilities. Production and storage of hydrogen is also
    supported at increased levels over FY 1996.

        In-house energy management.--This program had funded energy
    conservation retrofit projects at Department facilities. These projects
    were designed to improve the efficiency of DOE energy use and set an
    example for other Federal agencies and the private sector. For FY 1997,
    the program will focus on energy audits and economic analyses to support
    and encourage private sector third-party financing of improvements.

        Nuclear fission.--In 1997 the Civilian Reactor Development program
    places emphasis on the Light Water Reactor (LWR) program to ensure that
    nuclear energy continues to make a vital contribution to national energy
    security. This program

    [[Page 440]]
    will focus on making standardized advanced light water reactors
    available to assist in meeting the increased electrical capacity needs
    of the first decade of the next century. The program includes
    institutional and regulatory reform and supporting technology efforts.
    Cooperative programs with industry have the objective of ensuring that
    the designs developed are those of interest to utilities. The Advanced
    Radioisotope Power Systems program will continue to develop and produce
    nuclear power systems for use in U.S. space missions and in support of
    military and civilian applications. The University Nuclear Science and
    Reactor Support program will continue to provide educational and
    research grants to maintain a stable human resource base in the nuclear
    sciences.

        In cooperation with the Department of State and the Nuclear
    Regulatory Commission, the Department is committed to improving the
    safety of nuclear power plants in Russia and the Ukraine. The focus of
    this activity is the comprehensive improvement in: safety culture, power
    plant operation and physical condition, and supporting infrastructure.
    This commitment is an element of the Administration's policy of
    supporting former Soviet Nations as they move toward market economies,
    and will improve U.S. competitiveness. The Nuclear Security/Russian
    Production Reactor Shutdown program will ensure compliance with the
    U.S.-Russian 1994 agreement to cease production of weapons grade
    plutonium; support U.S. non-proliferation policies; address safety and
    nonproliferation concerns related to breeder reactors in countries of
    the former Soviet Union; and promote policies to reduce the need for
    reprocessing of nuclear fuel. The Isotope support decision unit will
    ensure adequate supplies of isotopes which are in the National interest.

        Environment, safety and health.--The Office of Environment, Safety
    and Health is a corporate resource that fosters Departmental excellence
    through innovative leadership in the protection of workers, the public,
    and the environment. This commitment to excellence will be demonstrated
    by striving for continuous improvement in developing meaningful programs
    and policies; conducting independent oversight of environment, safety,
    health and security performance; and providing technical assistance,
    resources and information sharing.

        The 1997 budget request for the Office of Environment, Safety and
    Health reflects these priorities. It is important to note that the
    budget request for the Office of Environment, Safety and Health programs
    is contained in two appropriations as follows:
            Energy Supply Research and Development.--Technical Assistance,
        Policy, National Environmental Policy Act program, Radiation Effects
        Research Foundation, Management and Administration, and Program
        Direction.
            Other Defense Activities.--Oversight, Health Studies and Program
        Direction.

        1997 Goals for the Office of Environment, Safety and Health are:
             Establish a standardized corporate independent
        oversight process within the Office of Environment, Safety and
        Health that is coordinated with field and program offices and
        provides a credible process for appraising the effectiveness of
        environment, safety, health, and safeguards and security programs.
             Continue the quality, timely, efficient, and effective
        environment, safety and health technical assistance program that
        meets priority needs with higher customer satisfaction.
             Continue an effective system of policies, requirements,
        guidance and technical standards that significantly increase
        protection of the environment and enhances public and worker safety
        and health.
             Establish an integrated, state-of-the-art information
        management program that will: deliver information to the right
        customers in the right form at the right time; improve
        communications of lessons learned; and enhance environment, safety
        and health performance.
             Continue process that encourages managers to use the
        National Environmental Policy Act in decision-making, builds public
        trust, and minimizes the cost and time for document preparation and
        review with no reduction in quality.
             Implement a Department-wide business and budget
        planning process that: identifies environment, safety, and health
        vulnerabilities and reduces vulnerabilities; enables effective line
        program allocation of environment, safety, and health resources.

        Scientific and Engineering Training and Development.--This program
    provides for training, and professional development of technically
    trained professionals to staff and manage the Department's technically
    complex programs and facilities. This will ensure that programs are in
    place to systematically analyze scientific and engineering job
    requirements, assess and identify the necessary technical qualifications
    and skills of each position and target training as appropriate, and
    provide a trained cadre from which the Secretary can fill the
    Department's senior technical managerial positions with qualified
    executives.

        Biological and environmental research.--This program develops the
    knowledge base necessary to identify, understand, and anticipate the
    long-term health and environmental consequences of energy use and
    development and utilizes the Department's unique scientific and
    technological capabilities to solve major scientific problems in the
    environment, medicine, and biology. Planned 1997 activities include
    programs in global climate change; terrestrial, atmospheric and marine
    environmental processes; molecular, cellular and systemic studies on the
    biological effects of radiation, including radon emissions; structural
    biology; and medical applications of nuclear technology and the Human
    Genome Program. Additional funding is provided to continue construction
    of the environmental and molecular sciences laboratory, and the human
    genome laboratory.

        Spill test facility.--Fulfilling the direction of Energy and Water
    Acts, the Superfund Amendments and Reauthorization Act, and the Clean
    Air Act Amendments, the overall goal is to conduct user-sponsored spill
    tests and mitigation responder training in support of plant and
    community safety and worker and community health associated with the
    handling, shipping and storage of hydrocarbons and related chemical
    industries' materials with focused attention on liquefied gaseous fuels
    and other hazardous fluids. Within this goal, other Federal agencies
    such as the Environmental Protection Agency conduct user-sponsored tests
    concerning airborne toxic substances to refine hazard concerns in
    programs designed in collaboration with the Department.

        Fusion Energy Sciences Program.--At the direction of the Congress,
    and with guidance from the National Academy of Sciences and the
    Department of Energy's Fusion Energy Advisory Committee, the Fusion
    Energy Sciences Program will be significantly restructured in FY 1997.
    The newly restructured program will emphasize underlying basic research
    in plasma and fusion sciences, with the long-term goal of harnessing
    fusion as a viable energy source. The program centers on the following
    goals: 1) Advancement of plasma science in pursuit of national science
    and technology goals; 2) Development of fusion science, technology and
    plasma confinement innovations as the central theme of the domestic
    program; and 3) Participation in international fusion energy science and
    technology activities.

        The budget request of $256 million provides for increased basic
    research in plasma science, plasma containment re

    [[Page 441]]
    search, and investigation of tokamak alternatives, along with continued
    operation of the three major U.S. experimental machines--DIII-D, Alcator
    C-Mod, and the Tokamak Fusion Test Reactor (TFTR). Unlike the
    President's FY 1996 proposal, the FY 1997 budget proposes no funding for
    the Tokamak Physics Experiment (TPX). The FY 1997 budget provides for
    continued U.S. participation in the International Thermonuclear
    Experimental Reactor (ITER) Engineering and Design Activity, though at a
    lower level than the Administration proposed for FY 1996. ITER addresses
    the broad physics and engineering challenges that are generic to any
    next step toward the goal of fusion energy, and is also consistent with
    the fusion energy science mission. Moreover, ITER helps leverage the
    U.S. program with the European, Japanese and Russian fusion programs.

        Supporting research and technical analysis.--The role of these
    programs is to expand the scientific and engineering base for future
    energy technology development and to provide independent, objective
    evaluations of energy research activities. Support is also provided for
    university related research and manpower training including the use of
    facilities at the national laboratories for student research and
    education.
            Basic Energy Sciences.--The Basic Energy Sciences (BES) program
        funds basic research in the physical, biological, and engineering
        sciences that support the Department's nuclear and non-nuclear
        technology programs. The BES program is responsible for constructing
        and operating large user research facilities, such as synchrotron
        light and neutron sources, and a combustion research facility, as
        well as smaller user facilities such as materials preparation and
        electron microscopy centers.
            The BES program also supports a substantial basic research
        budget for materials sciences, chemical sciences, and the
        geosciences. The program supports a number of research areas that
        are unique within the Federal government; in many basic research
        areas, such as materials science, funding provided by the BES
        program represents a large percentage, or even the sole source of
        Federal funding.
            The 1997 BES budget request includes a continued support to
        maintain utilization of the Department's large state-of-the-art
        science facilities. The proposed funding will significantly enhance
        the quality of service and availability of facility resources to
        users, including university and government scientists, as well as
        private companies who rely on unique BES facilities for their basic
        research needs. The proposed funding level will also result in a
        more rational and efficient utilization of such high technology
        facilities, which are generally oversubscribed by factors of two to
        three. Research areas that will benefit from this initiative include
        structural biology, materials science, superconductor technology,
        and medical research and technology development. A total of $23
        million in budget authority is being requested for the continued
        construction activities at the Combustion Research Facility, Phase
        II. Of this amount, $10 million is being requested as a part of this
        appropriation for the obligations to be incurred for the project in
        1997. An additional $13 million in budget authority is being
        requested as part of a Government-wide general provision in order to
        fully fund this project. This additional amount is part of a
        Government-wide effort to improve planning and budgeting for the
        acquisition of fixed assets.
            In addition, the BES request includes $8 million in FY 1997 to
        support research and development and engineering design activities
        at Oak Ridge National Laboratory leading to the conceptual design of
        a next-generation spallation source to meet the Nation's neutron
        scattering needs. The BES request also includes funding for
        preconceptual design activities directed towards upgrading the
        Department's existing reactor and spallation sources for neutron
        scattering.
            Without a major new neutron source or upgraded operation of an
        existing research reactor, the United States will forego significant
        scientific, technical, and economic benefits that derive from
        neutron scattering and materials irradiation research and the
        production of medical isotopes. World-class neutron sources should
        enable the Nation to carry out major research activities in areas
        such as biology, materials science, superconductivity,
        pharmaceuticals, electronic materials, and many other technological
        areas that are critical for future U.S. economic competitiveness and
        national security.
            University and Science Education.--The goal of this program is
        to ensure that the Department effectively utilizes and leverages the
        scientific and technical resources of the DOE laboratory system to
        support the Department's university and science education missions.
        This program provides opportunities and effective mechanisms for
        students and faculty to use hands-on research experiences at the
        DOE's laboratories to enhance the development of a diverse
        scientific and technical workforce, and to provide the institutional
        support for the education activities of all DOE's research and
        technical program areas.
            Energy research analyses.--This activity involves the
        independent assessment of existing or proposed technological
        initiatives, including examination of the base of research that
        underlies energy supply and utilization technologies.

        Multiprogram energy laboratories facilities support.--The goal of
    the multiprogram energy laboratories facilities support program is to
    provide funds for rehabilitating, replacing or demolishing deficient
    common-use utilities, roads, and buildings at the multiprogram
    laboratories. This program also includes support to correct ES&H
    deficiencies and management of inactive surplus facilities.

        Technical information management program.--This program contributes
    to DOE's missions in advancing energy and nuclear defense technologies
    and protecting U.S. economic and military security through the effective
    management and control of the Department's scientific and technical
    knowledge which is contained in its information resources. Major
    objectives which are structured to meet the overall purpose are the
    effective management, control, and use of the results of DOE's
    multibillion dollar research program, and the acquisition and management
    of results of worldwide investment in energy R&D.

        Environmental management.--The Environmental Management Program
    encompasses the following non-defense activities:
            Environmental Restoration.--Provides for assessments,
        characterization, remediation, and decontamination and
        decommissioning at contaminated DOE and legislatively-authorized
        non-government facilities. Various amounts and types of waste have
        accumulated at these facilities and sites as a result of past
        department activities spanning nearly five decades.
            Waste Management.--Provides for the safe, effective, and
        efficient management of wastes generated by Energy Supply Research
        and Development funded activities, through minimization, treatment,
        storage or disposal of various waste types including radioactive,
        hazardous, mixed or sanitary wastes in compliance with applicable
        local, State and Federal requirements and internal Department of
        Energy requirements.
            Nuclear Material and Facility Stabilization.--Directs the
        stabilization of surplus nuclear materials, the preparation of
        surplus nuclear materials for disposition, and the deactivation of
        surplus facilities.
            Site Operations.--Provides Headquarters policy direction for
        landlord planning and budgeting including reducing site
        infrastructure costs and managing workforce restructuring.

    [[Page 442]]
        Further, the Office of Site Operations manages the national
        Transportation Program and the national Pollution Prevention Program
        and provides leadership for crosscutting issues raised by the field
        and/or Headquarters, as well as serving as an advocate for the field
        at Headquarters.

        Policy and management.--Provides executive direction, management
    assistance, and administrative support to all programs within energy
    supply activities.

        Field Operations.--This account funds the Department's multiprogram
    Field Operations Offices and the Office of Field Management which were
    previously funded in the Departmental Administration Appropriation. The
    four affected field operations offices are located at Chicago, Idaho,
    Oak Ridge, and Oakland. They perform functions in support of energy
    activities throughout the country. Among these functions are field
    procurement, engineering and construction management, environmental
    safety and health monitoring, property management, labor relations,
    legal counsel, and maintenance of personnel and financial systems. These
    federal FTEs conduct the management oversight of approximately 56,800
    management and operating contractor employees spread across the four
    field installations. The Office of Field Management is responsible for
    strategic planning for all field elements and management coordination
    and oversight of all operations offices, implementing project
    management, cost, facilities management systems and programs.

        Information Management Investment Program.--This program supports
    the Strategic Alignment Initiative on Integrating Information Management
    which has a goal to realize savings through consolidating information
    resource acquisitions, designing an information architecture for the
    Department, and ensuring interoperability among all sites. The specific
    activity of this program is to fund prioritized corporate information
    management projects.

        Computational and Technology Research (CTR).--This program includes
    research in Mathematical, Information, and Computational Sciences and
    Advanced Energy Projects that were formerly budgeted as the Applied
    Mathematical Sciences and Advanced Energy Projects subprograms
    respectively in the Basic Energy Sciences Program. The program also
    includes Laboratory technology research activities formerly budgeted as
    the Technology Transfer program. The purpose of the CTR program is to
    provide an integrated program in long term computational and technology
    research to address complex problems. The program also supports the
    operation of large supercomputer user facilities.

        The Fossil Energy R&D programs support the Energy Policy Act through
    research and development that will strengthen the technology base on
    which industry can draw in developing future new products and processes
    for the commercial market. The programs support activities ranging from
    basic research in universities and national laboratories to applied R&D
    and proof-of-concept projects in private sector firms.

        The Fossil Energy R&D programs proposed in the 1997 budget will
    continue limited Federal support of company-specific technology
    development and demonstration activities. The program continues to fund
    high-priority, high risk and cross-cutting research that will improve
    the Nation's ability to cleanly and efficiently use coal, and to enhance
    the economic recovery of our oil and gas reserves.

        Coal R&D.--For 1997, programs will continue to focus on meeting the
    new goals and objectives and changing mission the Department of Energy.
    An integrated research and development program consisting of: (1)
    Advanced Clean/Efficient

    [[Page 444]]
    Power Systems, (2) Advanced Fuels Research, and (3) Advanced Research
    and Technology Development replaces the pre-1995 coal program which
    emphasized individual technologies.

        Advanced Power Systems research and development concentrates on a
    set of building-block technologies that will yield the clean coal power
    generation systems of the future. Typically, many technologies
    contribute toward advancing any single system. By focusing on building-
    block technologies that will improve a variety of systems, the
    Department's program makes optimal use of funds for research,
    development and demonstration. The categories of these systems that hold
    great promise for commercial use include: Advanced Pulverized Coal-fired
    Powerplants, High Efficiency Pressurized Fluidized Bed Combustion, High
    Efficiency Integrated Gasification Combined Cycles, Indirectly Fired
    Cycles, and Advanced Research and Environmental Technology.

        The Advanced Clean Fuels Research program will conduct activities to
    develop clean methods to produce coal-derived liquid fuels. This
    research consists of Coal Preparation, Direct Liquefaction, Indirect
    Liquefaction, Advanced Research & Environmental Technology, and Systems
    for Coproducts.

        Oil, gas and shale.--The oil program encompasses new and improved
    oil recovery and related research and development, industry cost-shared
    demonstration of improved and advanced oil recovery methods,
    environmental research activities directed to facilitate environmentally
    acceptable exploration and production of domestic oil resources, and
    research directed to improve technology needed to economically upgrade
    domestic-use crude oils in an environmentally sound manner.

        Consistent with Energy Policy Act objectives, the natural gas
    program has been redesigned. Previously focused on unconventional gas
    recovery, the program now emphasizes enhanced gas production, storage
    technology, and high efficiency, low NOx turbines.

        New initiatives greatly expand the new gas program research effort.
    As in all other programs, industry and Gas Research Institute cost-
    sharing is a key feature. The Advanced Computational Technology
    Initiative will continue to be funded in the oil and gas programs. This
    initiative focuses on the transfer of Defense-developed technology to
    the oil and gas industry. The fuel cells program will continue under
    this heading since gas-fueled fuel cells will most probably be the first
    to be developed.

        Consistent with Congressional direction, the FY 1997 request also
    includes funding for the mining research partnership program at the
    Albany Research Center in Oregon, which was formerly funded by the
    Bureau of Mines. The health and safety research programs formerly part
    of the Bureau of Mines were transferred to the Department in FY 1996,
    and are proposed for transfer by the Administration to the National
    Institute for Occupational Safety and Health in FY 1997.

        Program direction and management support.--This program provides the
    funding for all Headquarters and indirect field personnel and overhead
    expenses in Fossil Energy. In addition, it provides support for day-to-
    day project management functions.

        Environmental restoration.--The Department of Energy is assisting in
    payments for the environmental clean-up of former Fossil Energy projects
    as required by the Environmental Protection Agency. Comprehensive
    Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act (CERCLA) sites
    include the Western Superfund Site at Ft. Lewis, Washington, and the
    Rock Springs and Hoe Creek Sites in Wyoming. Resource Conservation
    Recovery Act (RCRA) efforts are underway at the Morgantown Energy
    Technology Center (METC) to eliminate cross-connections between sewer
    and storm water lines, and at the Pittsburgh Energy Technology Center
    (PETC) to clean up contaminated soil and monitor groundwater. Clean-up
    actions related to close-out of the magnetohydrodynamics program will
    not be conducted. In addition, as a result of internal DOE evaluations
    (Tiger Teams) other efforts are underway at both METC and PETC and at
    the National Institute of Petroleum Energy Research at Bartlesville,
    Oklahoma to correct a number of other environmental problems.

        Fuels conversion.--This program will continue regulatory reviews and
    oversight of the transmission of natural gas and electricity across the
    U.S. borders and to process certifications of alternate fuel capability.

        In the past, this program has included those activities necessary to
    operate, explore, conserve, develop, and produce the naval petroleum
    reserves at the maximum efficient rate and to conserve the oil shale
    reserves. This has included routine operation and maintenance,
    development and exploration drilling, environmental and conservation
    work, and construction and installation of on-reserve facilities and
    related systems required for the collection, storage, and distribution
    of produced petroleum and related products.

        In order to maximize the return on the taxpayer's investment and the
    return to the Treasury and as part of the Administration's proposal to
    reinvent the Department of Energy, Public Law 104-106 authorizes the
    Department to sell the Government's interest in Elk Hills, the major oil
    and natural gas field located near Bakersfield, California that accounts
    for the bulk of this program. Under procedures established in Public Law
    104-106, a minimum acceptable price shall be established for Elk Hills
    and the sale shall be conducted on a competitive basis to be completed
    not later than February 10, 1998. The Department shall also conduct a
    study of the remaining petroleum and oil shale reserves to determine
    which of the following options would maximize the value of these
    reserves to the Government. These options include (1) retention and
    operation, (2) transfer to another Federal agency, (3) lease, or (4)
    sale. This law also authorizes the Department to produce Elk Hills at
    the maximum economic rate.

        Elk Hills was originally set aside to provide oil for the Navy as it
    converted from coal to oil near the start of this century. Oil and gas
    from the field has been produced there with contractor assistance and
    sold commercially since 1976. Producing and selling this oil and natural
    gas is a commercial, not a governmental activity, which is more
    appropriately performed by the private sector. Restructuring at Elk
    Hills is consistent with the Administration's commitment to reinvent the
    government, subjecting public organizations to market dynamics where
    this can be done in a way to obtain the best value for the taxpayer's
    dollar. In addition to the sale price and future tax receipts on profits
    to be paid by industry, the government would be freed from the
    obligation to pay some $200 million needed each year to operate and
    maintain the field.

                                        ====================================

        The Administration's energy efficiency programs produce substantial
    benefits for the Nation--both now and in the future--in terms of
    economic growth, increased national security and a cleaner environment
    through the research and development of energy efficiency and pollution
    prevention technologies. These programs carry out the Department's
    responsibility under the bipartisan Energy Policy Act of 1992 and other
    major pieces of authorizing legislation.

        The dollar benefits of our carefully constructed programs--to
    industries, homeowners, and commercial firms--far exceed program costs.
    Furthermore, the technologies developed in these programs create jobs
    and global market opportunities for U.S. firms. When the benefits to
    national security and the environment are included, it is clear that
    these programs represent investments in a clean, productive future.

        In total, the Department's energy efficiency programs are projected
    to save homeowners $17 billion and businesses $12.5 billion per year by
    the year 2005 and to create almost 125,000 jobs. Energy efficiency
    programs for industry are projected to save U.S. firms $5.8 billion
    annually by the year 2000 and create 57,000 jobs. Our transportation
    technologies are projected to reduce oil imports by 2.3 million barrels
    a day by the year 2000, creating a trade deficit reduction of $14
    billion per year.

        The activities and programs contained in the 1997 Budget Request
    represent a balanced portfolio of research and development, applied
    research and demonstration, and market introduction. Virtually all of
    the research and development programs are conducted jointly with
    industrial partners who share significantly in research costs, often
    paying 33-50 percent or more. Similarly, demonstration and deployment
    programs are specifically designed to leverage the existing programs and
    the efforts of utilities and existing state and local government
    programs in energy efficiency and pollution prevention. Within these
    programs, a single federal dollar is matched by anywhere from 1:1 to as
    much as a 10:1 ratio of private and other governmental contributions.
    The budget structure within the Energy Conservation account has been
    modified this year, with most of the State and local programs (which
    focus on buildings and construction) being integrated with the building-
    sector R&D activities. The new organizational unit is shown below as the
    Buildings, State, and Community Sector.

        Building, State and Community Sector.--In fiscal year 1997, research
    and development to improve the energy efficiency of appliances, building
    equipment, and the building envelope is complemented by new incentive
    programs designed to move advanced technologies into the marketplace and
    produce near-term energy savings with associated economic and
    environmental benefits. Voluntary partnerships for lowering the barriers
    to cost-effective, new technologies based on the Energy Policy Act of
    1992 represent collaborations with many stakeholders, including
    manufacturers, utilities, State and local organizations, and the general
    public. Programs to develop appliance and lighting test procedures, to
    improve the use of building efficiency codes, and to reengineer and
    improve the collaborative processes for developing appliance and
    building codes provide the base from which the expanded voluntary and
    technology introduction programs can successfully penetrate the building
    sector. The State and Local Partnership Program, which includes the
    Weatherization Assistance Program, the State Energy Program (a
    consolidated program including the former State Energy Conservation
    Program and the Institutional Conservation Program), and the Municipal
    Energy Program, is designed to promote the adoption of energy efficient
    and renewable technologies among States, municipalities, institutions,
    and by private citizens.

        Federal Energy Management Program.--The Federal Energy Management
    Program (FEMP) will continue to reduce the cost of government by
    advancing energy efficiency and water conservation, and to use solar and
    other renewable energy as a means to reduce energy costs. FEMP's major
    fiscal year 1997 emphasis will be on using private sector investments to
    retrofit federal facilities using energy savings performance
    contracting, thus stretching federal leveraging to the maximum.

        Industrial Sector.--The fiscal year 1997 program consists of cost-
    shared technology development which is developed collaboratively with
    industry and its vision of future challenges and needs. Demand-reduction
    program areas include: the reduction of industrial wastes, which has
    both energy-efficiency and environmental benefits; improved electric
    motor systems; materials processing technologies; chemicals and
    petroleum refining; pulp and paper production; and advanced materials
    development. Supply activities include: efforts to understand and
    mitigate the emissions from combustion of municipal wastes; more
    efficient industrial cogeneration with emphasis on advanced turbine
    systems; and development of chemical industry feedstocks from cellulosic
    resources. The portfolio is balanced with market deployment programs
    such as Motor Challenge, the National Industrial Competitiveness through
    Energy, Environment and Economics (NICE3) program, Climate Wise, and the
    Energy Analysis and Diagnostic Centers.

        In support of the ``Industries Visions of the Future'' theme, cost-
    shared Environmental Technology Partnerships will be initiated to
    conduct research, demonstrations, and deployment of environmentally
    sound technologies in heavy process industries and in small- and medium-
    sized industries.

        Transportation Sector.--The FY 1997 program continues development
    and commercialization of technologies which can radically alter current
    projections of U.S. and world demand for energy, particularly oil. The
    program represents a major portion of the Partnership for the Next
    Generation of Vehicles with its significant improvements in fuel economy
    and environmental emissions. Program priorities reflect work on
    technologies which are most critical to achieve a tripling of light duty
    vehicles fuel economy, including hybrid vehicles, fuel cells, and
    advanced materials technologies that improve engine efficiency and
    reduce weight. In addition, the program will continue to develop
    alternative fuels and vehicles, and advanced batteries that enable the
    use of electricity as an alternative fuel. These activities include
    demonstrating ad

    [[Page 447]]
    vanced alternative fuel vehicles that provide improved range and reduced
    emissions, with performance equivalent to conventional vehicles;
    accelerating the use of alternative fuels and vehicles through
    implementation of Energy Policy Act programs; and demonstrating
    continued progress in improving range and performance for electric and
    hybrid vehicles.

        Utility Technologies.--The Integrated Resource Planning (IRP)
    program has assisted States in evaluating cost-effective resource
    allocation options for utility planning. The IRP program has been in
    existence since 1986 and has substantially completed its mission. In FY
    1996 the program is being phased out.

        Policy and Management.--This activity supports management in the
    development of policy and program evaluation for energy conservation
    programs to ensure effective program delivery.

        This program supports energy information activities which are
    designed to provide timely, accurate and relevant energy information for
    use by the Administration, the Congress, and the general public. The
    activities funded in this program include the design, development and
    maintenance of information systems on petroleum, natural gas, coal,
    nuclear, electricity, alternate fuel sources, and energy consumption.
    This includes collecting data and ensuring its accuracy; preparing
    forecasts of alternative energy futures; and preparing reports on energy
    sources, end-uses, prices, supply and demand, and associated
    environmental, economic, international, and financial matters. This
    program also includes the operation of the Energy Information
    Administration (EIA) computer facility, telecommunications support,
    customer services, and ADP software support to the Department of Energy
    and others. In addition, the National Energy Information Center
    disseminates statistical and analytical publications, reports, and data
    files in hard-copy and electronic formats, and responds to public
    inquiries. Finally, this activity provides survey and statistical design
    standards, documentation standards, and energy data public-use forms
    clearance and burden control services.

        Compliance.--This program, administered by the Office of General
    Counsel, is responsible for resolving all remaining enforcement actions
    to ensure that oil companies complied with petroleum regulations in
    effect prior to decontrol of oil in January 1981.

        Hearings and appeals.--The Office of Hearings and Appeals issues all
    final orders of an adjudicatory nature other than those over which the
    Federal Energy Regulatory Commission or the Board of Contract Appeals
    has jurisdiction. It decides appeals of petroleum enforcement actions
    and adverse Freedom of Information Act and Privacy Act determinations,
    examines requests for exception relief, and administers refund
    proceedings involving funds obtained as a result of petroleum
    enforcement actions. This office is also responsible for (a) conducting
    hearings and issuing initial agency decisions on ``whistleblower''
    complaints made under the DOE Contractor Employee Protection Program,
    (b) issuing final agency decisions on appeals of disputed ``Payment-
    Equal-to-Taxes'' determinations made under the Nuclear Waste Policy Act
    of 1982, as amended, and (c) conducting personnel security
    administrative review hearings, and performing administrative reviews of
    initial determinations. The FY 1997 funding request is limited to
    expenses related to Petroleum overcharge cases.

        The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) is charged with
    regulating certain interstate aspects of the natural gas, oil pipeline,
    hydropower, and electric industries. Such regulation includes issuing
    licenses and certificates for construction of facilities, approving
    rates, inspecting dams, implementing compliance and enforcement
    activities, and providing other services to regulated businesses. In
    1997, these businesses will pay fees and charges sufficient to fully
    offset the Commission's cost of providing licenses, inspections, and
    other services.

        Natural gas and oil.--The Commission regulates 150 natural gas
    pipeline companies, and 130 common carrier oil pipeline companies,
    including the Trans-Alaska Pipeline System (TAPS). Responsibilities
    include: issuing certificates of public convenience and necessity for
    natural gas pipelines, determining rates for the transportation of
    natural gas in interstate commerce and rates for the transportation of
    oil by pipeline; and establishing applicable tariff provisions to carry
    out the Commission's responsibilities under the Natural Gas Act and the
    Natural Gas Policy Act. In the post-Order No. 636 environment, the
    Commission is addressing the new issues that arise in the more
    competitive marketplace. The Commission has developed policies to permit
    more flexibility in pricing and is looking at potential solutions to
    long-term pipeline capacity usage issues. The Commission will be working
    to assure a healthy, viable pipeline industry while continuing to
    protect the public interest.

        Hydropower.--The Commission issues preliminary permits, exemptions,
    and licenses, including relicenses, for non-federal hydroelectric
    projects, enforces their terms and conditions, and performs dam safety
    inspections. The Commission regulates more than 1,600 hydroelectric
    projects which supply about 5 percent of the electric energy generated
    in the United States. The Commission also performs investigations to
    determine the amount of headwater benefits that are derived from
    Federally-owned and FERC-licensed headwater improvements and returned
    more than $6 million in revenues to the U.S. Treasury in 1995.

        Electric power.--The Commission is responsible for determining rates
    for the interstate sale or transmission of wholesale electric energy for
    more than 200 electric utilities and for overseeing electric utility
    corporate transactions. The Commission approves rates for all Federal
    power marketing agencies except TVA. Implementing the Energy Policy Act
    of 1992 will result in many changes in the electric power industry to
    meet increasing generating capacity needs of the 1990's, primarily
    through nontraditional sources in response to economic forces in the

        This loan guarantee program was started in 1979 to subsidize loans
    for geothermal energy projects too risky to acquire private sector
    financing on their own. Budget authority in the fund in recent years has
    only been needed to support one FTE to monitor the remaining active
    agreements and assets of the program. In 1992, that person's position
    was incorporated into the geothermal R&D activity, so no new budget
    authority will be needed in this account in FY 1997.

                       (including rescission and deferral)

        Of the funds made available under this heading for obligation in
    fiscal year 1997 by previous appropriations Acts, as amended,
    $325,000,000 are rescinded, and an additional $312,879,000 of such funds
    shall not be available for obligation until October 1, 1997: Provided,
    That all funds available in fiscal year 1997 under this head shall be
    available for any ongoing project regardless of the separate request for
    proposal under which the project was selected: Provided further, That
    not to exceed $17,000,000 available in fiscal year 1997 may be used for
    administrative oversight of the Clean Coal Technology program.
        Note.--A regular 1996 appropriation for this account had not been
    enacted at the time this budget was prepared. The 1996 amounts included

        Public Law 99-190, making continuing appropriations for 1986,
    provided $400 million from funds in the Energy Security Reserve in the
    Department of the Treasury for a new Clean Coal Technology program in
    the Department of Energy. This program was authorized under the Clean
    Coal Technology Reserve proviso of Public Law 98-473 to subsidize the
    construction and operation of facilities to demonstrate the potential
    commercial feasibility of such technologies.

        Termination of the Clean Coal Technology program, after completion
    of projects now underway, is part of the President's realignment of the
    Department of Energy. The Administration's policy calls for limiting
    existing projects which have been selected under contract. If a project
    is cancelled, the cancelled project's funding will either be used to
    meet the needs of remaining on-going projects, or will be rescinded if
    the funds are not needed by the program.

        The Department is proposing a rescission of $325 million from the
    program in FY 1997. The proposed rescission would reduce the total
    amount appropriated from $2.550 billion to $2.225 billion. In addition,
    a provision in the request would prevent the Department from obligating
    $175 million in FY 1997 unobligated budget authority not needed by the
    program until FY 1998. The Department plans to review the current suite
    of projects and intends to make project termination decisions to meet
    the proposed rescission amounts with minimum impact on overall program
    objectives. Decisions regarding spe

    [[Page 452]]
    cific project terminations and/or restructurings are expected to be made
    by the end of FY 1996 to achieve the savings in the rescission proposal.

        This program was established in 1980 for the purpose of expediting
    the development and production of alternative fuels.

        When the Synthetic Fuels Corporation was declared to be operational
    in 1982, the uncommitted and unobligated funds remaining in the program
    were transferred to the Energy Security Reserve for use by the Synthetic
    Fuels Corporation, with the exception of the loan guarantee for the
    Great Plains Gasification Project, which remained under the jurisdiction
    of the Department of Energy. The Department exercised its authority to
    borrow from the Treasury to repay the Federal Financing Bank upon
    default of the borrower in 1985. This loan was repaid, along with
    accrued interest, by a Supplemental appropriation in 1986. The
    Department acquired ownership of the Great Plains plant by foreclosure,
    which was completed on July 14, 1986, and continued operation of the
    plant without the expenditure of appropriated funds. On October 31,
    1988, the Department completed the process of establishing an asset
    purchase agreement for the Great Plains Gasification Plant by settlement
    with Basin Electric Power Cooperative Association. Responsibilities for
    other related agreements--Trust Agreement, Gas Transportation Agreement,
    Gas Purchase Agreement--were also settled. Under the terms of the asset
    purchase agreement a check for $85 million was provided to the
    Government as an initial payment. These agreements are currently the
    subject of litigation between the Department, Dakota Gasification
    Company and the four pipeline companies which purchase the synthetic gas
    from the plant. Future revenue sharing payments to the Department are
    dependent upon the outcome of this litigation as well as natural gas
    prices.

        The parties to litigation negotiated settlement agreements in
    principle in December 1993. Settlement agreements dated February 16,
    1994, have been signed. These settlement agreements resolve all past
    disputes as well as restructure the Gas Purchase Agreements pricing
    provisions. The settlement agreements are contingent upon final Federal
    Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) approval.

        One of the four pipeline companies, which purchases 20 percent of
    the plant's output of synthetic natural gas, has received Federal Energy
    Regulatory Commission approval for its settlement agreement. On December
    29, 1995, FERC Administrative Law Judge, Michel Levant, issued an
    initial decision that found the remaining three settlement agreements
    imprudent based on a comparison of settlement costs versus the costs
    under the original gas purchase agreements (as modified by the ALJ
    decision). The ALJ further decided that the modification made to the
    agreements should be applied retroactively to May 1, 1993.

        The Department of Energy filed a Brief on Exceptions on January 29,
    1996. FERC has committed to taking final action on this case by December
    31, 1996.

        The nuclear waste disposal program consists of efforts related to
    the development, acquisition, and operation of facilities for the
    disposal of civilian and defense high level nuclear waste. These
    activities are funded by appropriations from the Nuclear Waste Fund
    which is paid for by the users of the disposal service, and the Defense
    Nuclear Waste Disposal account, which was established by Congress as
    part of the 1993 Energy and Water Development Appropriation (P.L. 102-
    377) in lieu of a payment from the Department of Energy into the Nuclear
    Waste Fund for activities related to the disposal of defense high-level
    waste.

        The Alaska Power Administration is responsible for operation and
    maintenance and power marketing for the Eklutna and Snettisham
    hydroelectric projects in accordance with the authorizing legislation
    for each project.

        Consistent with the recommendations of the National Performance
    Review, legislation was proposed for transfer and termination of the
    Alaska Power Administration (APA). On November 28, 1995, the President
    signed S.395 into law (Public Law 104-58) the Alaska Power
    Administration Asset Sale and Termination Act (1995). Consistent with
    this legislation, APA's activities will concentrate on the termination
    of the Alaska Power Administration and transfer of its assets to non-
    federal ownership.

        The Southeastern Power Administration (SEPA) markets power generated
    at Corps of Engineers hydroelectric generating plants in an eleven-State
    area of the Southeast. Deliveries are made by means of transmission
    facilities owned by others. There are 23 projects now in operation.

        SEPA sells wholesale power primarily to publicly and cooperatively-
    owned electric distribution utilities using wheeling and pooling
    agreements with the region's large private utilities to provide firm
    power to its customers. SEPA does not own or operate any transmission
    facilities. Its long-term contracts provide for periodic electric rate
    adjustments to ensure that the Federal Government recovers costs of
    operation and capital invested in power, with interest, in keeping with
    statutory requirements.

        The SEPA program includes the following activities:
            Program direction.--Provision is made for negotiation and
        administration of power contracts, collection of revenues,
        development of wholesale power rates, the amortization of power
        investment, investigation and planning of proposed water resources
        projects, scheduling and dispatch of power generation, scheduling
        storage and release of water, administration of contractual
        operation requirements, and determination of methods of operating
        generating plants individually and in coordination with others to
        obtain maximum utilization of resources. Proprietary receipts
        deposited in the Treasury were $146 million for 1995 and are
        estimated to be $156 million for 1996 and $165 million for 1997.
            Purchase power and wheeling.--Provision is made for the payment
        of wheeling fees and for the purchase of electricity in connection
        with disposal of power under contracts with utility companies.

        For display purposes only, the unobligated balances of this account
    include a continuing fund of $50 thousand, maintained from receipts from
    the transmission and sale of electric power in the southeastern area,
    which is available to defray expenses necessary to ensure continuity of
    services (16 U.S.C. 825s-2).

        The Southwestern Power Administration (Southwestern) operates in a
    six-State area as a marketing agent for hydroelectric power produced at
    Corps of Engineers dams. It also operates and maintains some 2,225
    kilometers (1,380 miles) of high voltage transmission lines, 24
    substations and switching stations, and 44 VHF radio and microwave
    stations. Southwestern sells its power at wholesale primarily to
    publicly and cooperatively owned electric distribution utilities. Its
    long-term contracts provide for periodic rate adjustments to ensure that
    the Federal Government recovers all costs of operation and all capital
    invested in power, with interest, in keeping with statutory
    requirements.

        Southwestern also is responsible for scheduling and dispatching
    power, negotiating power sales contracts, and constructing facilities
    required to meet changing customer load requirements.

        Program Direction.--This activity provides for the overall direction
    and support of Southwestern's program activities and includes salaries
    and benefits, travel, support services and other related expenses such
    as rent, utilities, communications, supplies, materials and building
    maintenance.

        Systems operation and maintenance.--Provision is made for
    investigating and planning proposed water resources projects, scheduling
    and dispatching power generation, scheduling storage and release of
    water, administering contractual operation requirements, and determining
    methods of operating generating plants individually and in coordination
    with others to obtain maximum utilization of resources. Provision also
    is made for maintenance and improvement of the transmission system and
    related facilities to ensure reliable service, negotiation and
    administration of power contracts, collection of revenue, development of
    wholesale power rates and the amortization of the power investment.
    Actual proprietary receipts in the amount of $96 million were deposited
    in the Treasury in 1995. Estimated proprietary receipts in the amount of
    $95 million in 1996 and $94 million in 1997 are expected.

        Purchase power and wheeling.--Provision is made for the payment of
    wheeling fees and for the purchase of energy in connection with the
    marketing of power under contracts with utility companies.

        Construction.--The construction program provides transmission,
    substation, switching and control facilities to transmit power generated
    at Corps of Engineers' hydroelectric projects in the Southwest. This
    program is coordinated with the Corps of Engineers' construction program
    and customer requirements. This program also provides for the purchase
    of capital electrical equipment used for upgrading the established
    system to meet changing customer load requirements.

        Reimbursable program.--This program involves services provided by
    Southwestern Power Administration to others under various types of
    reimbursable arrangements. In 1996, the reimbursable program primarily
    provides for operation and maintenance, construction, and power and
    energy services. The power and energy service supports the requirements
    of two government agencies, Ft. Sill and McAlester Army Ammunition
    Plant.

        For display purposes only, the unobligated balances of this account
    include a continuing fund of $300 thousand, which is replenished from
    power receipts and is available permanently for emergency expenses that
    would be necessary to ensure continuity of service (16 U.S.C. 825s-1; 63
    Stat. 767; 65 Stat. 249).

                                        ====================================

        The Western Area Power Administration (Western) markets electric
    power in 15 western States from federally-owned power plants operated
    primarily by the Bureau of Reclamation, Corps of Engineers, and the
    International Boundary and Water Commission. Western operates and
    maintains approximately 16,760 circuit-miles of high-voltage
    transmission lines and 257 substations/switchyards, and constructs
    additions and modifications to existing facilities.

        Western sells wholesale power to electric distribution utilities. In
    keeping with statutory requirements, Western's long-term power contracts
    allow for periodic rate adjustments to ensure that the Federal
    Government recovers costs of operation and the capital investment in
    power facilities, with interest.

        Systems operation and maintenance.--A total of 13 power systems will
    be operated and maintained. Western will continue to participate in
    conservation and renewable energy programs in 1997.

        Power is sold to wholesale customers such as municipalities,
    cooperatives, irrigation districts, public utility districts, State and
    Federal Government agencies, and private utilities. Receipts are
    deposited in the Reclamation fund, the Falcon and Amistad Operating and
    Maintenance fund, the General fund, the Colorado River Dam fund, the
    Central Valley Project Restoration Fund, the Lower Colorado River Basin
    Development fund, and the Upper Colorado River Basin fund.

        Energy sales and revenues resulting from these Western power systems
    operations, are as follows:
                                          1995 est.   1996 est.   1997 est.
    Energy sales (millions of kilowatt
    hours)..............................      34,052      31,503      31,739
    Gross Operating Revenues (in
    thousands of dollars)...............     796,521     804,825     828,056

        Purchase of power and wheeling.--The program provides for purchase
    of power and wheeling. Financing of this program consists of $59,635,000
    of new budget authority, $14,600,000 of prior year balances,
    $102,481,000 associated with net billing and customer bill crediting,
    and $20,000,000 associated with reimbursement from other Federal
    entities, for a total program cost of $196,716,000.

        System construction.--Western's construction and rehabilitation
    activity emphasizes replacement and upgrades of existing infrastructure
    to sustain reliable power delivery to our customers, to contain annual
    maintenance costs, and to improve overall operational efficiency.
    Western will continue to participate in joint construction projects to
    encourage more widespread transmission access.

        Program direction.--This activity provides compensation and all
    related expenses for the workforce that operates and maintains Western's
    high voltage interconnected transmission system (systems operation and
    maintenance program), and those that plan design, and supervise the
    construction of replacement, upgrades and additions (system construction
    program) to the transmission facilities.

        Utah Mitigation and Conservation.--The 1997 budget request includes
    $5,432,000 for deposit into the Utah Reclamation Mitigation and
    Conservation Account in the U.S. Treasury, pursuant to Title IV of the
    Reclamation Projects Authorization and Adjustment Act of 1992. Funds are
    earmarked primarily for environmental mitigation expenditures in the
    State of Utah covering fish and wildlife, and recreation resources
    impacted by the Colorado River Storage Project.

        Bonneville Power Administration (BPA) is the Federal electric power
    marketing agency in the Pacific Northwest. BPA markets hydroelectric
    power from 21 multipurpose water resource projects of the U.S. Army
    Corps of Engineers and 9 projects of the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation,
    plus some energy from non-Federal generating projects in the region.
    These generating resources and BPA's transmission system, planned by the
    end of 1997 to consist of an estimated 14,800 circuit miles of high-
    voltage transmission lines and 400 substations, are operated as an
    integrated power system with operating and financial results combined
    and reported as the Federal Columbia River Power System (FCRPS). BPA is
    the largest power wholesaler in the Northwest and provides about one-
    half of the region's electric energy supply and about four-fifths of the
    region's electric power transmission capacity.

        BPA is responsible for meeting the net firm power requirements of
    its requesting customers through a variety of means, including energy
    conservation programs, acquisition of renewable and other resources, and
    power exchanges with utilities both in and outside the region.

        BPA will finance its operations on the basis of the self-financing
    authority provided by Federal Columbia River Transmission System Act of
    1974 (Transmission Act) (Public Law 93-454) and the new borrowing
    authority provided by the Pacific Northwest Electric Power Planning and
    Conservation Act (Pacific Northwest Power Act) (Public Law 96-501) for
    energy conservation, renewable energy resources and capital fish
    facilities. Authority to borrow is available to the BPA on a permanent,
    indefinite basis. The amount of borrowing outstanding at any time cannot
    exceed $3.75 billion.

        Operating expenses: Marketing, Conservation and Production.--
    Provides for the planning, contractual acquisition and oversight of
    reliable, cost effective resources including fuel switching and
    conservation measures. Also includes protection, mitigation and
    enhancement of fish and wildlife affected by hydroelectric facilities on
    the Columbia River and its tributaries in accordance with the Pacific
    Northwest Power Act. Provides for forecasting regional demand;
    negotiating power sales and wheeling contracts, billing, and servicing
    these contracts; reviewing and establishing wholesale power and wheeling
    rates and scheduling power. These resources are needed to serve BPA's
    portion of the region's forecasted net electric load requirements.

        Residential Exchange.--Provides for extending the benefits of low
    cost Federal power to the residential and small farm customers of
    investor-owned and publicly-owned utilities, in accordance with the
    Pacific Northwest Power Act.

        Transmission Services.--Provides funding from revenues for electric
    transmission research and development and program support of the capital
    investment program described below for transmission services. Provides
    for operating an estimated 14,800 miles of line and 400 substations, and
    for maintaining the facilities and equipment of the Bonneville
    transmission system in 1997.

        Planning Council.--Provides for activities of the Pacific Northwest
    Electric Power and Conservation Planning Council required by the Pacific
    Northwest Power Act.

        Interest.--Provides for payments to the U.S. Treasury for interest
    on borrowings to finance BPA's transmission services, conservation,
    capital equipment, fish and wildlife, and associated projects capital
    programs under $3.75 billion borrowing authority provided by the
    Transmission Act as amended by the Pacific Northwest Power Act and
    replenished by Public Law 98-50. This category also includes interest on
    Corps of Engineers, BPA and U.S. Bureau of Reclamation appropriated
    debt.

        Associated project costs.--Provides for repayment of the operation
    and maintenance (O&M) costs of the 30 U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and
    U.S. Bureau of Reclamation power generating projects, and amortization
    on the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation capital investment in power generating
    facilities and irrigation assistance at Bureau facilities.

        Reimbursable.--Provides for reimbursable power purchases, and for
    services such as construction, operation and maintenance of transmission
    facilities when requested and financed by other entities. Also includes
    the coordination agreement payments to the Federal Energy Regulatory
    Commission.

        Capital Investments: Marketing, Conservation & Production.--Provides
    for funding of cost-effective conservation measures.

        Transmission Services.--Provides for the planning, design and
    construction of transmission lines, substation and control system
    additions, replacements, and enhancements to the FCRPS transmission
    system for a reliable, efficient and cost-effective regional
    transmission system. During FY 1997, Bonneville plans to complete
    testing and commence operation of the new Munro Control Center, near
    Spokane, Washington, along with continued construction and completion of
    a variety of upgrades and additions to existing facilities. Provides for
    planning, design, and construction work to repair or replace existing
    transmission lines, substations, control systems, and general facilities
    of the FCRPS transmission system.

    [[Page 462]]

        Capital equipment.--Provides for general purpose ADP equipment,
    office furniture and equipment, and software capital development in
    support of all BPA programs.

        Environment, Fish and wildlife.--Provides for capital investments to
    implement environmental activities, and protect, mitigate, and enhance
    fish and wildlife affected by hydroelectric facilities on the Columbia
    River and its tributaries, in accordance with the Pacific Northwest
    Power Act.

        Associated Projects-Capital.--Provides for direct funding of
    additions, improvements, and replacements at existing Federal
    hydroelectric projects in the Northwest. BPA's 1997 budget includes
    direct funding for four Bureau of Reclamation projects and one Corps of
    Engineers project.

        Contingencies.--Although contingencies are not specifically funded,
    the need may arise to provide for purchase of power in low-water years;
    for repair and/or replacement of facilities affected by natural and man-
    made emergencies, including the resulting additional costs for
    contracting, construction, and operation and maintenance work; for
    unavoidable increased costs for the planned program due to necessary but
    unforeseen adjustments, including engineering and design changes,
    contractor and other claims and relocations, or for payment of a
    retrospective premium adjustment in excess nuclear property insurance.

        Financing.--The Transmission Act provides for the use by BPA of all
    receipts, collections, and recoveries in cash from all sources,
    including the sale of bonds, to finance the annual budget programs of
    BPA. These receipts result primarily from the sale of power and wheeling
    services. The Transmission Act also provides for authority to borrow
    from the U.S. Treasury at rates comparable to borrowings at open market
    rates for similar issues. As amended by the Pacific Northwest Power Act
    and replenished by Public Law 98-50, it allows for $3.75 billion of
    borrowing to be outstanding at any time. The fiscal year 1997 capital
    obligations are estimated to be $287 million. To the extent BPA capital
    borrowing authority is insufficient in 1997, BPA would use cash reserves
    generated by revenues from customers, if available, to finance some of
    these investments.

        In FY 1995, BPA made payments to the Treasury of $1,000 million and
    also expects to make payments of $800 million in 1996 and $835 million
    in 1997. The 1997 payment will be distributed as follows: U.S. Army
    Corps of Engineers, U.S. Bureau of Reclamation, U.S. Fish and Wildlife
    Service O&M ($124 million), Colville Settlement ($15 million), interest
    on bonds and appropriations ($394 million), irrigation assistance ($25
    million), and amortization ($277 million).

        Direct loans.--During FY 1997, no new direct loan obligations may be
    made.

        Operating results.--Total revenues and reimbursements are forecast
    at approximately $3.4 billion in 1997.

        It should be noted that BPA's revenue forecasts are based on several
    critical assumptions about both the supply of and demand for Federal
    energy. During the operating year, deviation from the conditions assumed
    in a rate case may result in a variation in actual revenues of several
    hundred million dollars from the forecast.

        Western's operation and maintenance and power marketing expenses for
    the Colorado River storage project, the Colorado River Basin project,
    the Seedskadee project, the Dolores project and the Fort Peck project
    are financed from power revenues.

        Western operates and maintains approximately 4,000 miles of
    transmission lines, substations, switchyards, communications and control
    equipment associated with this fund. The compensation and related
    expenses for all these activities are qualified under Program Direction.
    Wholesale power is provided to utilities over interconnected high-
    voltage transmission systems. In keeping with statutory requirements,
    long-term power contracts provide for periodic rate adjustments to
    ensure that the Federal Government recovers all costs of operation and
    all capital invested in power, with interest.

        Colorado River storage project.--Western markets power and operates
    and maintains the power transmission facilities of the Colorado River
    storage project. Western also purchases electricity and pays wheeling
    fees to meet firm and nonfirm commitments.

        Colorado River Basin project.--The Colorado River Basin project
    includes Western's expenses associated with the Central Arizona project
    and the United States entitlement from the Navajo coal-fired powerplant.
    Revenues in excess of operating expenses are deposited in the Lower
    Colorado River Basin development fund.

        Fort Peck project.--Revenue collected by Western is used to defray
    construction, operation and maintenance and power marketing expenses
    associated with the power generation and transmission facilities of the
    Fort Peck project, Corps of Engineers--Civil, and emergency expenses to
    ensure continuous operation. The Corps operates and maintains the power
    generating facilities, and Western operates and maintains the
    transmission system and performs power marketing functions.

        Seedskadee project.--Activity under the Seedskadee project at
    Fontenelle Dam in Wyoming was previously included in the Colorado River
    Storage project. In 1994, separate reporting was initiated to comply
    with power repayment requirements.

        Dolores project.--Activity under the Dolores project at McPhee Dam
    in southwestern Colorado was previously included in the Colorado River
    Storage project. The facilities were transferred from the Bureau of
    Reclamation to Western late in 1994. Separate reporting was initiated in
    1994 to comply with power repayment requirements.

        Energy sales and revenue from the Colorado River storage project,
    the Seedskadee project, the Dolores project and the Colorado River Basin
    project are shown in the table below. Revenue from the Fort Peck project
    is integrated with Pick-Sloan Missouri Basin program revenue and
    included in the revenue totals shown in Western's construction,
    rehabilitation, operation and maintenance account.

        For FY 1997, the Department is proposing to establish a working
    capital fund to provide headquarters program offices administrative
    services such as building space, information and telecommunications
    services, supplies, printing, and copying. In the past, most of the
    funding for these goods and services has been requested in Departmental
    Administration, and was provided in a way many agency consumers
    perceived as ``free.'' Establishment of the working capital fund should
    help the Department reduce waste and improve efficiency, since funding
    for the goods and services is requested by the program office consumers
    who purchase what they need through the working capital fund. The total
    FY 1997 revenues of the fund are estimated at $93 million.

                Northwest Electric Power Planning and Conservation Act (16
                U.S.C. 839c), due to the election by customers of the
                Bonneville Power Administration to purchase electric power
                from other suppliers, as compared to the quantity of
                electric power that the Administrator was contractually

    law, sell or otherwise dispose of excess Federal power--
              (1) outside the Pacific Northwest on a firm basis for a
        contract term of not to exceed 7 years, if the excess Federal power
        is first offered for a reasonable period of time and under the same
        essential rate, terms and conditions to those Pacific Northwest
        public body, cooperative and investor-owned utilities and those
        direct service industrial customers identified in subsection (b) or
        (d)(1)(A) of section 5 of the Pacific Northwest Electric Power
        Planning and Conservation Act (16 U.S.C. 839c); and

      [(c) Study by Council.--(1) Within 180 days of enactment of this Act,
    the Council shall review and report to Congress regarding the most
    appropriate governance structure to allow more effective regional

      [(d)] (c) Corps of Engineers Procurement.--The Assistant Secretary of
    the Army for Civil Works, acting through the North Pacific Division of
    the Corps of Engineers, is authorized to place orders for goods and
    services related to facilities for electric power generation and fish
    and wildlife mitigation associated with the Federal Columbia River Power
    System with and through the Administrator using the authorities
    available to the Administrator.
      [(e) Residential Exchange.--Notwithstanding the establishment,
    confirmation and approval of rates pursuant to 16 U.S.C. 839e, and
    notwithstanding the provisions of 16 U.S.C. 839c(c), the cost benefits
    of eligible utilities' total purchase and exchange sales under 16 U.S.C.
    839c(c)(1) shall be $145,000,000 for fiscal year 1997, and the net

      [Sec. 509. Section 7 of the Magnetic Fusion Energy Engineering Act (42
    U.S.C. 9396) is repealed.]
      Sec. [510] 505. Water Levels in Rainy Lake and Namakan Lake.--
      (a) Findings.--Congress finds that--
              (1) the Rainy Lake and Namakan Reservoir Water Level
        International Steering Committee conducted a 2-year analysis in
        which public comments on the water levels in Rainy Lake and Namakan
        Lake revealed significant problems with the current regulation of
        water levels and resulted in Steering Committee recommendations in
        November 1993; and
              (2) maintaining water levels closer to those recommended by
        the Steering Committee will help ensure the enhancement of water
        quality, fish and wildlife, and recreational resources in Rainy Lake
        and Namakan Lake.
      (b) Definitions.--In this section:
              (1) Existing rule curve.--The term ``existing rule curve''
        means each of the rule curves promulgated by the International Joint
        Commission to regulate water levels in Rainy Lake and Namakan Lake
        in effect as of the date of enactment of this Act.
              (2) Proposed rule curve.--The term ``proposed rule curve''
        means each of the rule curves recommended by the Rainy Lake and
        Namakan Reservoir International Steering Committee for regulation of
        water levels in Rainy Lake and Namakan Lake in the publication
        entitled ``Final Report and Recommendations'' published in November
        1993.
      (c) Water Levels.--The dams at International Falls and Kettle Falls,
    Minnesota, in Rainy Lake and Namakan Lake, respectively, shall be
    operated so as to maintain water levels as follows:
              (1) Coincident rule curves.--In each instance in which an
        existing rule curve coincides with a proposed rule curve, the water
        level shall be maintained within the range of such coincidence.
              (2) Noncoincident rule curves.--In each instance in which an
        existing rule curve does not coincide with a proposed rule curve,
        the water level shall be maintained at the limit of the existing
        rule curve that is closest to the proposed rule curve.
      (d) Enforcement.--
              (1) In general.--The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission
        shall enforce this section as though the provisions were included

    [[Page 469]]
        in the license issued by the Commission on December 31, 1987, for
