The Office of Inspector General conducts and supervises audits,
evaluations and investigations designed to: (1) promote economy,
efficiency, and effectiveness and prevent fraud, waste, and abuse in
Departmental programs and operations; and (2) keep the Secretary and the
Congress fully and currently informed of problems and deficiencies in
the administration of Departmental programs and operations. The audit
function provides program audit, contract audit and financial statement
audit services. Contract audits provide professional advice to agency
contracting officials on accounting and financial matters relative to
negotiation, award, administration, repricing, and settlement of
contracts. Program audits review and audit all facets of agency
operations. Financial statement audits assess whether financial
statements fairly present the agency's financial condition and results
of operations, the adequacy of accounting controls, and compliance with
laws and regulations. These audits contribute significantly to improved
financial management by helping Treasury managers identify improvements
needed in their accounting and internal control systems. The evaluations
function reviews program performance and issues critical to the mission
of the Department and provides advisory services to program managers.
The investigative function provides for the detection and investigation
of improper and illegal activities involving programs, personnel, and
operations. This appropriation also provides for the oversight of
internal investigations made by the Offices of Internal Affairs and
Inspection in the Bureau of ATF, the Customs Service, and the Secret
Service, and internal audits and internal investigations of the
Inspection Service at IRS.
The Inspectors General Auditor Training Institute provides the
necessary facilities, equipment, and support services for conducting
auditor training for the Federal Government Inspector General community.
Institute personnel develop and deliver instructional programs related
to basic government audit skills. The cost of training is recovered by
tuition charged to students' agencies.

The Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN) has responsibility
for implementing Treasury anti-money laundering regulations through
administration of the Bank Secrecy Act, 31 U.S.C. section 5311, et seq.,
and serves as a United States Government source for the systematic
collation and analysis of information to assist in the investigation of
money laundering and other financial crimes. FinCEN implements these
responsibilities through analytical and technological platforms geared
to combat money laundering through (1) prevention--using its regulatory
authority in partnership with the financial sector; (2) detection--
combining technology with all-source intelligence to identify both
underlying criminal financial activity as well as emerging trends and
patterns of domestic and international money laundering; and (3)
enforcement--empowering other agencies at the Federal, State, local, and
international levels to take action against financial criminals through
the transfer of information and expertise.

The Riegle Community Development and Regulatory Improvement Act of
1994 established the Community Development Financial Institutions Fund
(CDFI Fund). The CDFI Fund provides equity investments, grants, loans,
and technical assistance to new and existing community development
financial institutions such as community development banks, community
development credit unions, community development loan funds, community
development venture capital funds, and micro-loan funds. Funds provided
by the CDFI Fund will enhance the capacity of these institutions to
finance economic development, housing, and community development in
distressed urban and rural communities. The CDFI Fund also provides
grants to insured depository institutions to facilitate investment in
community development financial institutions and increase community
lending activities.
In 1999, the CDFI Fund will operate a training program to increase
the capacity and expertise of community development financial
institutions and other members of the financial services industry to
undertake community development finance activities.
The CDFI Fund helps to address the urgent problems of declining
economic and social infrastructure, loss of jobs, lack of private
enterprise, and deteriorating housing facing many American communities
today. Government investment and technical assistance supplements
private funds and expertise to ensure that community development
financial institutions are effective in restoring healthy economic
development to these communities.

Matching funds in primaries.--Upon certification by the Federal
Election Commission, every candidate eligible to receive payments is
entitled to an amount equal to the contributions each has received on or
after the beginning of the calendar year immediately preceding the
election year.
Nominating conventions of parties.--Upon certification by the
Commission, payments may be made to the national committee of a major
party or a minor party which elects to receive its entitlement. The
total of such payments will be limited to the amount in the account at
the time of payment. The national committee of each party may receive
payments beginning on July 1 of the year immediately preceding the
calendar year in which a presidential nominating convention of the
political party is held. The two major parties will receive $4 million
each, plus a cost-of-living increase.
Candidates for general elections.--The eligible candidates of each
major party in a presidential election will be entitled to equal
payments in an amount which, in the aggregate, shall not exceed $20
million each, plus a cost-of-living increase.
Also, provision is made for new parties, minor parties and
candidates, who may receive in excess of 5 percent of the popular vote
and therefore be entitled to reimbursement of qualified campaign
expenditures.

The Secretary of the Treasury is authorized to deal in gold and
foreign exchange and other instruments of credit and securities as
deemed necessary, consistent with U.S. obligations in the International
Monetary Fund (IMF), regarding orderly exchange arrangements. An
Exchange Stabilization Fund, with a capital of $200 million, is
authorized by law for this purpose (31 U.S.C. 5302). All earnings and
interest accruing to this fund are available for the purposes thereof.
Transactions in special drawing rights (SDR's) and U.S. holdings of
SDR's are administered by the fund. U.S. drawings from the IMF are also
advanced to the fund.
The principal sources of the fund's income have been profits on
foreign exchange transactions, interest on foreign exchange swap
transactions, and on investments held by the fund, including interest
earned on fund holdings of U.S. Government securities.
The amounts reflected in the 1998 and 1999 estimates entail only
projected net interest earnings on Exchange Stabilization Fund (ESF)
assets. The estimates are subject to considerable variance, as the
amount and composition of assets can change dramatically, as well as
interest rates applied to investments. In addition, exchange rate
fluctuations can
[[Page 769]]
cause the dollar value of income received on foreign currency and SDR
investments to fluctuate. Moreover, estimates make no attempt to
forecast valuation gains or losses on SDR holdings or realized gains or
losses on foreign currency holdings. As required by Public Law 95-612,
the fund no longer is used to meet the administrative expenses.

Department of Treasury was chosen as a pilot Franchise Fund under
P.L. 103-356, the Government Management and Reform Act of 1994. Begun in
1997, financial and administra- tive services included in the Franchise
Fund (Fund) are financed on a fee-for-service basis. Treasury's Fund is
a revolving fund used to supply financial and administrative services on
the basis of services supplied. For 1999, service activities are
expected to have billings of $40 million and employ 118 people.
Activities included in the Fund are financial training, accounting
cross-servicing, and various administrative support services. The Fund
concept is intended to increase competition for government and financial
administrative services, resulting in lower costs and higher quality.

This account provides for the acquisition, construction,
improvements, equipment, furnishings and related costs for expansion and
maintenance of facilities of the Federal Law Enforcement Training
Center.
This includes funding for the Facilities Master Plan, Minor
Construction and Maintenance, Firearms Environmental Restoration and
Reconstruction, Environmental Compliance, and installation of Fiber
Optics. The Master Plan provides the long range blueprint for expansion
of facilities to meet the training requirements of the over 70
participating agencies. Minor construction and maintenance provides
alterations and maintenance funding for approximately 300 buildings at
two locations (Glynco, Georgia and Artesia, New Mexico). The Firearms
Environmental Restoration and Reconstruction funds the clean-up of the
existing outdoor ranges and reconstruction. The Environmental Compliance
funds are to ensure compliance with EPA and State environmental laws and
regulations. The fiber optics funding is to replace the existing
antiquated twisted copper wire with a state-of-the-art
telecommunications cable system.
The $28 million sought in this account, demonstrates the President's
commitment to an important step in completing and maintaining the
necessary facilities at FLETC to train our Nation's law enforcement
personnel.

The Interagency Crime and Drug Enforcement Task Force (ICDE) Program
consists of 9 regional task forces which consolidate the resources and
expertise of 11 member Federal agencies, in cooperation with State and
local investigators and prosecutors, to target and destroy major
narcotic trafficking and money laundering organizations. Beginning in
1998, only components within Treasury are reimbursed from this
appropriation. Treasury continues its participation in ICDE as it has in
the past; however, the program is administered by Treasury's
Departmental Offices. Treasury participates in the task force activities
through direct investigative and support activities of task forces,
focusing on the disruption of drug trafficking controlled by various
organized crime enterprises.

Financial Operations.--Payments are made through six regional
offices for Federal civilian agencies, except the U.S. Postal Service,
the U.S. Marshals Service, and certain Government corporations. These
disbursing services are provided through the timely issuance of checks,
and electronic funds transfer (EFT) payments. This activity is
responsible for proc
[[Page 774]]
essing EFT claims, for promoting the use of electronics in the payment
process, and for providing full field representation for other
functional areas of the Service. This activity is also responsible for
the control and financial integrity of the Federal payments and
collections processes including conducting reconciliation, accounting,
and claims activities. It adjudicates and settles claims against the
United States resulting from instances in which Government checks have
been forged, lost, stolen, destroyed, or mutilated, and collects moneys
from those parties having liability to the United States through
fraudulent or otherwise improper negotiation of Government checks.
Financial Operations ensures the integrity of the Government's financial
accounting, reporting, and financing services and financial accounting
and reporting systems to the Federal Government and its agents, who
participate in the payments and collections processes. Additionally,
this activity provides financial services for the D.C. Government loan
account and provides for payment of domestic and international claims.
It also provides debt collection operational services to client agencies
through a network linking its own debt collection expertise and
capabilities with those of FMS's Regional Financial Centers, Federal
program agencies' Debt Collection Centers, private sector collection
agencies, and the Department of Justice. These services provide the
Federal Government with consolidated management of delinquent debt in
order to improve the collection of such debt. Available services include
collection of delinquent accounts, post-judgment enforcement,
consolidation of information reported to credit bureaus, reporting for
discharged debts or vendor payments, Federal Employee Salary Offset
Hearings, mortgage servicing, collection of unclaimed financial assets,
and disposition of foreclosed property.
Federal Finance.--This activity provides direction, leadership, and
technical guidance for managing the Federal Government's cash and credit
management programs. It is responsible for the development,
implementation, and dissemination of tools, regulations, standards, and
guidelines affecting all aspects of the Government's cash and credit
management programs. The major focus is on (1) development and
evaluation of cash, credit and asset management techniques, and (2)
credit management training, to minimize the cost and maximize the
effectiveness of the Federal Government's financial management. In
addition, this activity oversees compensation made to commercial
depositories for the processing services they provide to the Government
in collecting and accounting of Federal Tax Deposits.
Agency Support.--This activity provides leadership and guidance for
administrative and financial activities that enable the Service to
manage programs and resources effectively. It is responsible for all
internal FMS accounting, auditing, program review, budget and financial
operations, financial systems, and facilities and personnel functions.
This activity also encompasses the Service's legal, planning, and
legislative and public affairs needs. Top management and the Service's
Chief Financial Officer are also included under this activity. In
addition, this activity is responsible for overseeing the development,
implementation, and operation of information and financial management
systems. It is responsible for automated data processing (ADP)
operations and the associated computer support necessary to maintain the
Service's internal and Government-wide systems. Specific functions
include operating and maintaining all central facility computer systems
and data communications mechanisms, scheduling and processing
development and production workloads, in- stalling and tuning operating
system software, planning and coordinating hardware installations,
providing user support services, and acquiring ADP and
telecommunications equipment, software, services and supplies. This
activity also supports a large number of developmental efforts to
enhance the collections, payments, accounting, reporting, and resource
management functions of the Service.
Business Lines.--As part of a continuing effort to enhance
performance measures and the budget structure, and to more effectively
link programmatic activities to performance indicators, the four major
business lines that follow provide a direct link between the above
budget activities and FMS's performance measures. Starting with the FY
1999 budget submission, FMS will reflect its financial resources by

Loan guarantee financing accounts receive various payments and fees
and make payments on defaults. When cash balances result from an excess
of receipts over outlays, these balances are deposited at the Treasury
and earn interest. This account pays such interest to credit loan
guarantee financing accounts from the general fund of the Treasury in
accordance with section 505(c) of the Federal Credit Reform Act of 1990.
The estimates of interest paid by this fund are derived from the
estimates of interest received in the various financing accounts.

The Energy Security Reserve was created principally to finance the
activities of the U.S. Synthetic Fuels Corporation. Public Law 99-190
rescinded the balance of unobligated funds available to the Corporation.
The Act left $10 million in the Reserve for the Corporation's
liquidation and $400 million for a Clean Coal Technology Demonstration
program, which has been transferred to a new account in the Department
of Energy. The Act also transferred responsibility for ongoing projects
of the Corporation to the Secretary of the Treasury; these projects'
activities and financing will continue to be displayed in this account.

This account finances programs to aid commercial production of
alcohol and other fuels from crops and crop waste, timber, animal and
timber waste, and other forms of biomass and urban waste activities, as
authorized under Title II of the Energy Security Act.
Administrative provisions enacted in 1989 for the Department of
Energy allow the Department of Energy to retain in this account any
funds brought into its Alcohol Fuels Loan Guarantee Program, either
through (1) sale of assets the Government has acquired through loan
default and foreclosure, or (2) repayments made on a loan for which the
Department of Energy has become the direct lender by paying the
guarantee on a defaulted loan. These retained funds will be held in a
reserve against the possibility of further guaranteed loan defaults. The
Department of Energy will also be able to use unobligated funds from its
Alternative Fuels Production account to pay the guaranteed portion of
defaults if the need arises, and if those funds are not needed by the
Alternative Fuels Production program. In 1993, $44 million was
transferred to the Energy Information Administration (EIA) to offset
approximately half of EIA's budget authority requirements.

This fund was established as a permanent, indefinite appropriation
in order to maintain adequate funding of the Check Forgery Insurance
Fund (Fund). The Fund will facilitate timely payments for replacement
Treasury checks necessitated due to a claim of forgery. The Fund will
recoup disbursements through reclamations made against banks negotiating
forged checks.
To reduce hardships sustained by payees of Government checks that
have been stolen and forged, settlement is made in advance of the
receipt of funds from the endorsers of the checks through reclamation
procedures by this office. If the U.S. Treasury is unable to recover
funds, the account sustains the loss.

The Agricultural Credit Act of 1987 (Public Law 100-233) authorized
such sums as necessary to be appropriated to the Secretary of the
Treasury for payment to the Farm Credit System Financial Assistance
Corporation (FAC).
Treasury payments annually reimburse the FAC for interest expense on
FAC debt, which is authorized to be issued through 1992. Treasury is
authorized to pay all or part of FAC interest for the first 10 years on
each 15-year FAC debt issuance. Debt proceeds are used to provide
assistance to financially troubled Farm Credit System lending
institutions. No payments will be made after fiscal year 2000.
The Agricultural Credit Act of 1987 provided that the Farm Credit
System's share of interest assessment for FAC debt would increase if the
System's retained earnings exceeded five percent of its assets. For
1997, 1998, and 1999 the Treasury portion of interest assessments was
estimated at 9, 7, and 2 percent respectively.

The Federal Financing Bank (FFB) was created in 1973 to ensure the
coordination of Federal and federally assisted borrowing from the public
in a manner least disruptive to private financial markets and
institutions. Prior to that time, many agencies borrowed directly from
the private market to finance credit programs involving lending to the
public. With the implementation of the Federal Credit Reform Act in
1992, however, such agencies simply finance loan programs through direct
loan financing accounts that borrow directly from the Treasury.
Therefore, FFB loans are now used primarily to finance direct agency
activities such as resolution of failed thrift institutions by the
deposit insurance agencies, construction of Federal buildings by the
General Services Administration, and meeting the financing requirements
of the U.S. Postal Service. In certain cases, the FFB finances Federal
direct loans to the public that would otherwise be made by private
lenders and fully guaranteed by a Federal agency.
Lending by the FFB is set at \1/8\ percent above Treasury rates and
may take one of three forms, depending on the authorizing statutes
pertaining to a particular agency or program: (1) the FFB may purchase
agency financial assets; (2) the FFB may acquire debt securities that
the agency is otherwise authorized to issue to the public; and (3) the
FFB may originate direct loans on behalf of an agency by disbursing
loans directly to private borrowers and receiving repayments from the
private borrower on behalf of the agency. Because law requires that
transactions by the FFB be treated as a means of financing agency
obligations, the budgetary effect of the third type of transaction is
reflected in the budget in the following sequence: a loan by the FFB to
the agency, a loan by the agency to a private borrower, a repayment by a
private borrower to the agency, and a repayment by the agency to the
FFB.
As part of the implementation of changes made to the Federal Credit
Reform Act, the 1999 Budget provides an appropriation to liquidate the
FFB's accumulated deficit that resulted from the fact that while FFB
borrowers have been allowed to prepay at par, FFB paid a prepayment
premium on the underlying obligations to the Treasury Department.
The following table shows the annual net lending by the FFB by
agency and program and the amount outstanding at the end of each year.
The table does not include certain securities originally issued to
the FFB by the Tennessee Valley Authority and the Postal Service, which
the FFB exchanged with the Civil Service Retirement and Disability Fund
in 1996 in return for Treasury securities of equal present value. These
TVA and Postal Service securities had a remaining face value of $7.1
billion as of the end of 1997.

The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms (ATF) is a law
enforcement organization within the United States Department of the
Treasury with unique responsibilities dedicated to reducing violent
crime, collecting revenue, and protecting the public. ATF enforces the
Federal laws and regulations relating to alcohol, tobacco, firearms,
explosives, and arson by working directly and in cooperation with others
to: (1) Effectively contribute to a safer America by reducing the future
number and cost of violent crimes: (2) Maintain a sound revenue
management and regulatory system that continues reducing payer burden,
improving service, collecting the revenue due and preventing illegal
diversion; and (3) Protect the public and prevent consumer deception in
ATF's regulated commodities.
The following performance measurements continue to be refined and
improved in order to provide viable output and outcome measures for the
Bureau, thus complying with the Government Performance and Results Act
of 1993 (GPRA).

The Puerto Rican Federal Relations Act mandates that excise taxes
collected under the Internal Revenue laws of the United States on
articles produced in Puerto Rico and either transported to the United
States or consumed on the island are to be covered over to Puerto Rico
(48 U.S.C. 734). The budget assumes that the full amount of the
collections on Puerto Rico rum will be covered over. The Administration
will propose legislation to eliminate a limitation on the amount of the
cover over on rum imposed by 26 U.S.C. 7652. which is no longer
justified. The legislation will also provide that, for five years, fifty
cents per proof gallon would be dedicated for the Puerto Rico
Conservation Trust Fund pursuant to an agreement between the Secretary
of the Interior and the Governor of Puerto Rico. This proposal replaces
a funding source lost as a consequence of the repeal of a provision of
tax law.

====================================
The United States Customs Service, in partnership with other Federal
agencies, is one of the Nation's principal means of border enforcement.
Its mission is to ensure that all goods and persons entering and exiting
the United States do so in compliance with all United States laws and
regulations.
Prior to 1999, the Customs Service budget consisted of three
activities: Inspection and Control, Enforcement, and Tariff and Trade.
These activities were developed in the early 1980's and reflected the
organizational needs and structure of Customs at that time. In order for
Customs to effectively implement the requirements of the Results Act, a
comprehensive restructuring from three to two budget activities is
proposed beginning in FY 1999. The operations of the Customs Salaries
and Expenses appropriation would be divided into two major budget
activities: ``Commercial'' and ``Drug and Other Enforcement.''
Commercial.--Commercial activities are all process/business area
activities (Trade Compliance, Outbound, and Passenger Processing) which
occur prior to a violation being confirmed or acceptance of a referral
for investigation. This includes intelligence gathering, targeting,
analysis and examination activities.

This proposal would allow the Secretary of the Treasury to increase
the rate of the Merchandise Processing Fee (MPF) to offset the costs of
modernizing the Customs Service automated commercial operations.
Proceeds of the fee increase would be statutorily restricted to this
modernization effort. Subsequent to the FY 1999 President's Budget,
authorization legislation will be transmitted to allow the Secretary to
increase the ad valorem rate paid by importers on formal cargo entries
into the United States from .21 percent to up to .25 percent. (This
would not include imports excluded from the MPF under NAFTA.) The
proceeds would be available to Customs on a current indefinite basis
after necessary legislation by the authorizations and appropriations
committees.

Customs charges fees at certain small airports where the volume or
value of business is insufficient to justify the availability of Customs
services. The funds generated from these fees are applied to
expenditures incurred in providing Customs services at each of these
designated small airports. (19 U.S.C. 58b.)
The Treasury, Postal Service, and General Government Appropriations
Act of 1998 (Public Law 105-284) made permanent the provision that
Customs services at small airports may be derived from fees collected.

The Bureau of Engraving and Printing designs, manufactures, and
supplies Federal Reserve notes, various public debt instruments, as well
as most evidences of a financial character issued by the United States,
such as postage and internal revenue stamps. The Bureau executes certain
printings for various territories administered by the United States,
particularly postage and revenue stamps.
The anticipated work volume is based on estimates of requirements
submitted by agencies served. The program comprises the following
activities:
Engraving and printing--
Currency.--Total deliveries of currency for 1998 and 1999 are
estimated to be 9.2 and 9.5 billion notes, respectively. During
1997, the Bureau delivered 9.6 billion Federal Reserve notes.
Stamps.--This category of work is comprised of postal and
internal revenue stamps. The projected requirements for 1998 and
1999 are estimated to be 22.0 and 18.0 respectively. In 1997, the
Bureau delivered 22.4 billion stamps.
Securities.--This program encompasses the production of a wide
variety of bonds, notes, and debentures for the Bureau of Public
Debt and certain other agencies of the Government.
Commissions, certificates, etc.--This program is comprised
primarily of Presidential and Department of Defense commissions and
certificates, White House invitations, and identification cards for
various Government agencies. It represents a small portion of the
Bureau's total workload.
Space utilized by other agencies.--Other agencies are charged for
services provided in the space occupied in the Bureau's buildings.
Other miscellaneous services.--A wide variety of miscellaneous
services are performed by Bureau personnel for other agencies, which are
charged on an actual cost basis.
Purchase of operating equipment.--This category consists of new
purchases and replacement of printing equipment and other related
printing items.
Plant alterations and experimental equipment.--This category
encompasses alterations made on the Bureau's buildings and purchases of
experimental equipment.
The operations of the Bureau are currently financed by means of a
revolving fund established in accordance with the provisions of Public
Law 656, August 4, 1950 (31 U.S.C. 181), which requires the Bureau to be
reimbursed by customer agencies for all costs of manufacturing products
and services performed. The Bureau is also authorized to assess amounts
to acquire capital equipment and provide for working capital needs.
Bureau operations during 1997 resulted in a decrease to retained
earnings of $26.8 million.

The United States Mint manufactures coins, sells numismatic and
investment products, and provides for security and asset protection.
Public Law 104-52, dated November 19, 1995, enacted 5136, of Subchapter
III of chapter 51 of subtitle IV of title 31, United States Code
established the United States Mint Public Enterprise Fund. The new fund
encompasses the previous Salaries and Expenses, Coinage Profit Fund,
Coinage Metal Fund, and the Numismatic Public Enterprise Fund. The Mint
submits annual audited business-type financial statements to the
Secretary of the Treasury and to Congress in support of the operations
of the revolving fund. The Office of Management and Budget and the
Department of the Treasury are working on Performance Based Organization
proposals throughout the Department, including one for the Mint.
The operations of the Mint are divided into three major activities:
Circulating Coinage, Protection, and Numismatic and Investment Products.
Beginning in 1997, the Capital Investments line is no longer identified
as a separate budget activity in order to better align the GPRA/
budgetary reporting with the Mint's Strategic Plan. The Mint is credited
with receipts from its circulating coinage operations, equal to the full
cost of producing and distributing coins that are put into circulation,
including depreciation of the Mint's plant and equipment on the basis of
current replacement value.
[[Page 791]]
From that, the Mint pays its cost of operations, which includes the
costs of production and distribution. The difference between the face
value of the coins and the estimate of receipts is profit, which is
deposited as seigniorage to the general fund. In FY 1997, the Mint
transferred $465 million to the general fund. Any seigniorage used to
finance the Mint's capital acquisitions is recorded as budget authority
in the year that funds are obligated for this purpose, and as receipts
over the life of the asset.
Circulating Coinage.--This activity funds the manufacture of
circulating coins as determined by public demand. In 1999, resources for
this activity will enable the Mint to produce 12.8 billion coins. In
1996, with the merger of the former Coinage Metal Fund into the Mint
Public Enterprise Fund, the Mint began including the cost of metal in
the Circulating Coinage activity.
Numismatic and Investment Products.--This activity funds the
manufacture of numismatic and bullion coins, medals, and other products
for sale to collectors and the general public. These coins include
annual recurring programs such as proof and uncirculated sets, silver
proof coins, the American Eagle gold and silver bullion uncirculated and
proof coins, American Eagle platinum coins, and national and historic
medals. The activity also includes nonrecurring programs for coins and
medals which are legislated to commemorate specific events or
individuals. In 1999, this activity will fund the following new
commemorative coin programs: Dolly Madison, George Washington, and
Yellowstone National Park.
Protection.--This activity funds protection of the Government's
stock of gold and silver bullion, coins, Mint employees and visitors,
plant facilities and equipment, and all other Mint property against
abuse, theft, damage, disorders, and all other unsafe or illegal
practices by utilizing police officers and modern protective devices.

INTERNAL REVENUE SERVICE
The mission of the Internal Revenue Service is to collect the proper
amount of tax revenue at the least cost; serve the public by continually
improving the quality of our products and services; and perform in a
manner warranting the highest degree of public confidence in our
integrity, efficiency and fairness.
This mission will be carried out while providing consistently first-
rate service to the American public. To achieve its mission, the Service
has identified three strategic objectives. In order to achieve the first
objective of ``Improving Customer Service,'' the IRS will improve
taxpayer access, resolve most inquiries on the first contact, while
increasing customer satisfaction. Second, to achieve the objective of
``Increasing Compliance,'' the IRS will encourage and assist taxpayers
to voluntarily file accurate returns and pay timely, and take
appropriate enforcement actions if they do not comply. Also, to help
improve customer satisfaction with compliance efforts, the IRS will
ensure that taxpayers are treated with courtesy, fairness, and
professionalism. The IRS will meet its third objective of ``Increasing
Productivity,'' by using systems management techniques and developing a
highly skilled work force to continually improve operations and the
quality of products and services provided to taxpayers.
IRS has developed a set of key performance measures to focus the
energies and talents of the organization and its employees on the
attainment of the mission, to establish clear lines of accountability,
and to ensure first-rate customer service. The mission effectiveness
measure is an overall barometer of Service performance and represents
the first level of these measures. This indicator compares the amount of
revenue collected during a fiscal year, minus the IRS costs of
collecting that revenue and minus the costs plus the monetized value of
the hours used by taxpayers and the costs in meeting their tax
obligations, with the amount of revenue that would have been collected
if all taxpayers had paid their full tax liability.
The IRS uses the second level of measures to assess achievement of
the Service's three objectives. These measures are referred to as
Servicewide performance measures and are included in the chart that is
displayed below.
Finally, the third level of measures contains the measures for the
Service's sixteen budget activities. These sixteen activities represent
the Service's various functional components; each activity contributes
to the achievement of the Service's mission and strategic objectives.
Details on these measures are shown at the conclusion of the
appropriation summaries.

\1\ Revenue estimates reflect the current services baseline; estimates
based on the President's proposals were not available at the time this went
to print.
\2\ The FY 1997 Level of Access has been recalculated to reflect the GAO
definition, adopted by IRS this year. The new definition renders the goal
more challenging since it is based on calls offered over total call attempts
whereas the former definition (calls answered over unique caller demand)
only counted repeated callers once.
\3\ New measure-baselines and targets will be established during FY
1998.

This appropriation provides for: processing tax returns and related
documents; assisting taxpayers in filing of their returns and in paying
taxes that are due; matching information returns with tax returns;
conducting internal audit reviews and internal security investigations;
and managing financial resources, rent and utilities.
Submission processing.--This activity provides for all actions
associated with receipt of completed returns and payments, deposit of
those payments, processing and accounting for revenue collections and
Federal Tax Deposits and verification of the accuracy of information
provided by the taxpayer through an automated master file system. It
provides for payment of refunds, offset of refunds against delinquent
accounts, issuance of notices that payments are overdue, identification
of possible nonfilers for investigation, and assistance in the selection
of tax returns for audit.
Telephone and Correspondence.--This activity aids voluntary
compliance with Federal tax laws by informing taxpayers of their
responsibilities and by providing services and information through
various media which assist them in meeting their obligations. It
provides for responding to inquiries concerning tax laws, IRS bills and
notices, and resolving tax account problems.
Document Matching.--This activity processes information returns,
such as wage, dividend, and interest statements and matches them with
related individual income tax returns. This enables the Service to
identify income reporting discrepancies, unsubstantiated deductions, and
nonfiling of tax returns and to verify facts and amounts in question
through taxpayer contact prior to assessing additional tax or refunding
excess credits.
Inspection.--This activity protects public confidence in the
integrity of the Internal Revenue Service. Internal Audit independently
reviews service programs at the national, regional and local levels to
ensure that laws and regulations are being followed, that management and
financial internal controls are in place, that programs and major ADP
systems are functioning effectively and efficiently and that
appropriated funds are spent as authorized. Internal Security conducts
background investigations to maintain the integrity of the IRS workforce
against fraud and drug abuse and protect the Service against outside
attempts to bribe, intimidate or harass its employees.
Management Services.--This activity sets policies and goals,
provides leadership and direction for the Service, and provides
Servicewide policy guidance for managing contract administration and
procurement programs, conducting strategic and organizational planning,
and developing and managing the human, logistical, and financial
resources required to fulfill the Service's mission in performing tax
administration. It also provides all administrative services for IRS
National office and field installations.
Rent and Utilities.--This activity provides rent and utilities for
the entire Service.

This appropriation provides for the examination of tax returns, both
domestic and international, and the administrative and judicial
settlement of taxpayer appeals of examination findings. It also provides
for issuing technical rulings, monitoring employee pension plans,
determining qualifications of organizations seeking tax-exempt status,
examining tax returns of exempt organizations, enforcing statutes
relating to detection and investigation of criminal violations of the
internal revenue laws, collecting unpaid accounts, compiling statistics
of income and compliance research, and securing unfiled tax returns and
payments. Funds are requested to continue the Service's ability to
ensure equitable application and adequate enforcement of the tax laws,
to promote voluntary compliance with the internal revenue laws, to
identify possible nonfilers for investigation and to investigate cases
of fraud or financial transactions related to possible money laundering
schemes.
Criminal Investigations.--This activity provides for enforcement of
criminal statutes relating to violations of internal revenue laws. It
investigates cases of suspected intent to defraud, recommends
prosecution as warranted, and assists in the preparation and trial of
criminal tax cases. In addition, financial investigations expose money
laundering schemes through a variety of methods, including Currency
Transaction Reports.
Examination.--This activity encourages voluntary compliance with the
internal revenue laws through the determination of correct tax liability
by the selective examination of tax returns, the correction of errors,
and explanation of these corrections to taxpayers. The appeals portion
of this activity provides staffing, training, and direct support to
allow for an administrative review process that provides a channel for
impartial case settlement prior to cases being docketed in a court of
law. This includes the offices of the national director of appeals and
the regional director of appeals.
The international portion of this activity directs the full range of
IRS enforcement and assistance programs related to U.S. taxpayers doing
business or residing outside the United States as well as non-resident
aliens with a U.S. tax obligation. It also provides technical tax
training and administrative assistance to foreign governments; provides
compliance and taxpayer service support to Puerto Rico, the Virgin
Islands and certain Pacific Island jurisdictions; and manages activities
related to tax treaties between the United States and other governments.
The compliance research component of this activity develops and
evaluates data on taxpayer filing characteristics based on returns as
they are filed and conducts statistical and economic studies.
Collection.--This activity collects unpaid tax accounts and secures
delinquent returns; develops and implements programs to prevent tax
accounts from becoming delinquent; determines and analyzes reasons for
tax accounts that become delinquent; and develops, implements, and
measures programs that analyze the reasons for types and degrees of
nonfiling.
Employee plans and exempt organizations.--This activity monitors
private pension plans to ensure compliance with the Employee Retirement
Income Security Act of 1974, as amended. Organizations apply for tax-
exempt status, which is determined by this activity, through the
application of certain tests. By examining tax returns of tax-exempt
organizations, it monitors and ensures compliance with current tax laws
regarding tax-exempt organizations.
Statistics of income.--This activity publishes Statistics of Income
Reports on the operation of income tax laws, as required by the Internal
Revenue Code for the Congress and its committees; for administrative use
by the Secretary of the Treasury and the Commissioner of Internal
Revenue; and for the Federal benchmark statistical programs on income,
wealth and finance.
Chief Counsel.--The counsel activity is the independent legal
counsel to the Internal Revenue Service and provides the correct legal
interpretation of the internal revenue laws; represents the Internal
Revenue Service in litigation; provides all other legal support for the
Internal Revenue Service; and, performs these duties in a manner that
enhances public confidence in the integrity, efficiency, and fairness of
our nation's tax system.

This appropriation provides for: expanded customer service and
public outreach programs, strengthened enforcement activities, and
enhanced research efforts to reduce overclaims and erroneous filings
associated with the Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC).
Expanded customer service includes dedicated, toll-free telephone
assistance, increased community-based tax preparation sites and a
coordinated marketing and educational effort (including paid advertising
and direct mailings) to assist low income taxpayers in determining their
eligibility for EITC. Improved compliance includes increased staff and
systemic improvements in submission processing, examination and criminal
investigation programs. In returns processing, new procedures for
expanded use of math error authority and in the identification of EITC-
based refund claims involving invalid or duplicate primary, secondary
and dependent tax identification numbers (TINs). Increased examination
coverage, prior to issuance of refunds, reduces overpayments and
encourages compliance in subsequent filing periods; in addition, post-
refund correspondence audits by service center staff aids in the
recovery of erroneous refunds. Criminal investigation activities target
individuals and practitioners involved in fraudulent refund schemes and
generate referrals of suspicious returns for follow-up examination.
Examination staff, assigned to district offices, audit return preparers
and may apply penalties for non-compliance with ``due diligence
requirements.''
Enhanced research activities and projects focus on EITC claimant
characteristics and patterns of non-compliance and are designed to
improve education and outreach products, strengthen IRS abuse detection
capabilities and measure the effects of Servicewide programs on
compliance levels for the EITC-eligible taxpayer population. This
appropriation also funds the development of specialized research
databases and masterfile updates, reimbursement to the Social Security
Administration (SSA) for enhancements to the SSA numbering systems and
cooperative efforts with State vital statistics offices.

This appropriation provides for Servicewide information systems
support, including the evaluation, development, and implementation of
computer systems, including software and hardware requirements.
Operational Information Systems.--This activity provides the
salaries, benefits, and related costs to manage, maintain and operate
the information systems that support tax administration. The Service's
business activities rely on these information systems to process tax and
information returns, account for tax revenues collected, send bills for
taxes owed, issue refunds, assist in the selection of tax returns for
audit, and provide telecommunications services for all business
activities including the public's toll free access to tax information.
These systems are located in a variety of sites including the
Martinsburg Computing Center, the Detroit Computing Center, the
Tennessee Computing Center, and in regional and district offices and
service centers. The staffing in this activity is used to maintain the
millions of lines of programming code running the computer systems; to
operate and administer the Service's hardware infrastructure of
mainframes, minicomputers and networks; and to bring all systems into
Year 2000 compliance.
Developmental Information Systems.--This activity provides for
salaries and benefits, hardware, software (including commercial-off-the-
shelf), and contractual services to design, develop, and deploy new
information systems that are essential to temporarily build a bridge to
the modernized IRS. All of the projects included in this budget activity
are consistent with the Modernization Blueprint and are essential to
providing employees with the information systems equipment they need to
do their jobs.

As provided by law, there will be instances wherein the earned
income tax credit will exceed the amount of tax liability owed through
the individual income tax system, resulting in an additional payment to
the tax filer. The Earned Income Credit was originally authorized by the
Tax Reduction Act of 1975 (Public Law 94-12) and made permanent by the
Revenue Adjustment Act of 1978 (Public Law 95-600). The Tax Reform Act
of 1986 and the Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Acts of 1990 and 1993 have
increased the credit amount and expanded the eligibility for earned
income credit.

Under certain circumstances, as provided in 26 U.S.C. 6611, interest
is paid on Internal Revenue collections that must be refunded. The Tax
Equity and Fiscal Responsibility Act of 1982 (Public Law 97-248)
provides for daily compounding of interest. Under the Tax Reform Act of
1986 (Public Law 99-514), interest paid on Internal Revenue collections
will equal the Federal short-term rate plus two percentage points, such
rate to be adjusted quarterly.

As provided by law (26 U.S.C. 7623), the Treasury Secretary may make
payments to individuals resulting from information given that leads to
the collection of Internal Revenue taxes. The Taxpayer Bill of Rights of
1996 (Public Law 104-168) provides for payments of such sums to
individuals from the proceeds of amounts (other than interest) collected
by reason of the information provided, and any amount collected shall be
available for such payments. This information must lead to the detection
of underpayments of taxes, or detection and bringing to trial and
punishment persons guilty of violating the internal revenue laws (in
cases where such expenses are not otherwise provided for by law).

This revolving fund was established pursuant to section 112(a) of
the Federal Tax Lien Act of 1966, to serve as the source of financing
the redemption of real property by the United States. During the process
of collecting unpaid taxes, the government places a tax lien on real
estate in order to protect the government's interest. Situations arise
where property of this nature is collateral for other indebtedness and
the tax lien is subordinate to the original indebtedness. In this
circumstance, it is often to the government's interest to purchase the
property during the foreclosure sale. The advantage arises when the
property is worth substantially more than the first lienholder's equity
but is being sold for an amount that barely covers that equity, thereby
leaving no proceeds to apply against delinquent taxes. Under these
circumstances, if the Government buys the property and subsequently puts
it up for sale under more advantageous conditions, it is possible to
realize sufficient profit on the transaction to fully or partially
collect the amount of taxes due. The revolving fund is reimbursed from
the proceeds of the sale in an amount equal to the amount expended from
the fund for the redemption. The balance of the proceeds are applied
against the amount of the tax, interest, penalties, and additions
thereto, and for the costs of sale. The remainder, if any, would revert
to the parties legally entitled to it.
Administrative Provisions--Internal Revenue Service

The Office of the Comptroller of the Currency was created for the
purpose of establishing and regulating a national banking system. The
National Currency Act of 1863 (12 U.S.C. 1 et seq., 12 Stat. 665)
provided for the chartering and supervising functions in this
connection. The income of the bureau is derived principally from
assessments paid by national banks and interest on investments in U.S.
Government obligations.
As the Administrator of National Banks, the Office of the
Comptroller of the Currency charters new banking institutions only after
investigation and due consideration of charter applications. Supervision
of existing national banks is aided by the required submission of
periodic reports and detailed onsite examinations, which are conducted
by a staff of approximately 2,020 national bank examiners. At present,
there are approximately 2,624 national banks with total assets of more
than $2.8 trillion.
In addition, the Comptroller considers applications for mergers in
which the resulting bank will be a national bank and applications from
banks to establish branches. The Comptroller of the Currency also
promulgates rules and regulations for the guidance of national banks and
bank directors.

The Office of Thrift Supervision (OTS) was created by the Financial
Institutions Reform, Recovery, and Enforcement Act of 1989 (12 U.S.C.
1811 note). The OTS assumed the regulatory functions of the Federal Home
Loan Bank Board dissolved by the same act.
The OTS charters, regulates and examines Federal thrifts, all of
which are insured by the Savings Association Insurance Fund. In
addition, the OTS cooperates in the examination and supervision of
State-chartered thrifts insured by the Savings Association Insurance
Fund. The OTS sets capital standards for Federal and State thrifts and
reviews applications of State-chartered thrifts for conversion to
Federal thrifts. It also reviews applications for establishment of
branch offices.
Income of the bureau is derived principally from assessments on
thrifts, examination fees and interest on investments in U.S. Government
obligations. At present, the OTS oversees more than 1,200 thrifts with
more than 10,000 operating branches and total assets of more than $700
billion.

formatted and accepted by the Internal Revenue Service, up to $3.00 per
return so filed if such payments are determined by the Commissioner of

Government: Provided, That the payment may not be made unless the
electronic filing service is provided without charge to the taxpayer
whose return is so filed: Provided further, That the Internal Revenue
Service shall use standard procurement processes to establish this pilot
project and through these processes, the Internal Revenue Service shall
assure the security of all electronic transmissions and the full
