    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 nuclear-powered 
fleet defense requirements. During 2003, the program expects to exceed 
126 million miles safely steamed by the nuclear fleet, and will continue 
to support and improve operating reactors and plant components, and 
carry out test activities and verification. Additionally, Naval Reactors 
will continue to develop nuclear reactor plant components and systems 
for the Navy's new attack submarine and next-generation aircraft 
carriers, and continue to maintain the highest standards of 
environmental stewardship by responsibly inactivating shut down 
prototype reactor plants.

    Beginning in 2001, programs in the Weapons Activities appropriation 
have been managed by the National Nuclear Security Administration 
(NNSA).

    Weapons activities provides for the maintenance and refurbishment of 
nuclear weapons to sustain confidence in their safety, reliability, and 
performance; expansion of scientific, engineering, and manufacturing 
capabilities to enable certification of the enduring nuclear weapons 
stockpile; and manufacture of nuclear weapon components under a 
comprehensive test ban. Weapons activities also provide for continued 
maintenance and investment in the Department's enterprise of nuclear 
stewardship, including maintaining the capability to return to the 
design and production of new weapons and to underground nuclear testing, 
if so directed by the President. The major elements of the program 
include the following:

    Directed stockpile work.--Encompasses all activities that directly 
support specific weapons in the stockpile. These activities include 
maintenance and day-to-day care; planned refurbishment; reliability 
assessments; weapon dismantlement and disposal; and research, 
development, and certification technology efforts to meet future 
stockpile requirements.

    Campaigns.--Focuses on scientific, technical and engineering efforts 
to develop and maintain critical capabilities and tools needed to 
support stockpile refurbishment and continued assessment and 
certification of the stockpile for the long term in the absence of 
underground nuclear testing.

    Readiness in technical base and facilities (RTBF).--Provides the 
underlying physical infrastructure and operational readiness for the 
Directed Stockpile Work and Campaign activities. These activities 
include ensuring that facilities are operational, safe, secure, and 
compliant with regulatory requirements, and that a defined level of 
readiness is sustained at facilities funded by the Office of Defense 
Programs.

    Facilities and infrastructure.--Focuses on a multi-year effort to 
restore physical infrastructure of the weapons complex. This activity 
provides funds to accomplish deferred maintenance and utilities 
replacement while improving facility management practices to preclude 
further deterioration.

    Secure transportation asset.--Provides for the safe, secure movement 
of nuclear weapons, special nuclear material, and weapon components 
between military locations and nuclear complex facilities within the 
United States. Includes Program Direction funding for couriers.

    Weapons Safeguards and Security.--Provides for all safeguard and 
security requirements (except for personnel security investigations) at 
NNSA landlord sites, specifically the Lawrence Livermore National 
Laboratory, Los Alamos National Laboratory, Sandia National 
Laboratories, the Nevada Test Site, Kansas City Plant, Pantex Plant, Y-
12 Plant, and the Savannah River Site Tritium Facilities.

    The mission of this program is to (1) prevent the spread of 
materials, technology, and expertise relating to weapons of mass 
destruction; (2) detect the proliferation of weapons of mass destruction 
worldwide; (3) provide for international nuclear safety, and (4) 
eliminate inventories of surplus fissile materials usable for nuclear 
weapons. The program addresses the danger that hostile nations or 
terrorist groups may acquire weapons of mass destruction or weapons-
usable material, dual-use production technology or weapons of mass 
destruction expertise. In FY 2004, work will be done in the following 
major areas.

    Nonproliferation and Verification Research and Development will 
conduct applied research, development, testing, and evaluation leading 
to prototype demonstrations and detection systems that strengthen the 
U.S. response to current and projected threats to national security and 
world peace posed by the proliferation of nuclear weapons, and diversion 
of special nuclear material. The program works directly with agencies 
responsible for monitoring proliferation and will increase the 
transition of technologies to organizations responsible for combating 
terrorism.

    Nonproliferation and International Security efforts will control 
export of items and technology useful for weapons of mass destruction 
(WMD); implement international safeguards in conjunction with the 
International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA); monitor and implement 
treaties and agreements; develop and implement policy in support of 
international security efforts aimed at securing high-risk nuclear 
material; develop and implement transparency measures to assure that 
international nonproliferation and arms control agreements are in 
compliance, and that nuclear materials are secure; and explore and 
implement innovative approaches to improve regional security.

    International Nuclear Materials Protection and Cooperation will 
continue to improve the security for nuclear material and weapons in 
Russia by installing basic rapid upgrades and through comprehensive 
security improvements. Reducing the potential for diversion of nuclear 
warheads and materials has been a critical priority for the United 
States. Since the recent terrorist attacks, Russia and the United States 
have agreed to expand cooperation in this area significantly to include 
increased emphasis on strategic rocket forces and radiological 
dispersion devices.

    Russian Transition Assistance encompasses the efforts of the 
Initiatives for Proliferation Prevention (IPP) and the Nuclear Cities 
Initiative (NCI) programs to reduce the risk of adverse migration of 
former Soviet nuclear and other WMD expertise, and to work with the 
Russians in downsizing their nuclear weapons complex.

    HEU Transparency Implementation will continue to work with Russia to 
provide confidence to the U.S. that the Russian highly enriched uranium 
(HEU) being converted is from its military stockpile. The 1993 U.S.-
Russia HEU Purchase Agreement, which provides for Russian HEU to be down 
blended to non-weapons form and used to fuel reactors here in the United 
States, remains an extremely impressive nonproliferation achievement.

    International Nuclear Safety and Cooperation strengthens national 
security by helping to prevent nuclear incidents and accidents at 
foreign nuclear facilities and, to mitigate the consequences of 
accidents should they occur. In FY 2003 the program will complete the 
Soviet-designed reactor safety program in Russia, which increased the 
operating safety of Soviet-designed nuclear power reactors and enhanced 
the resident safety culture. FY 2004 activities will address specific 
high-risk situations by continued cooperation with IAEA, the G8 and 
others on international nuclear safety and emergency cooperation issues.

    Elimination of Weapons-Grade Plutonium Production Program enhances 
nuclear nonproliferation by assisting the Russian Federation in ceasing 
its production of weapons-grade plutonium production by providing 
replacement power production capacity.

    Accelerated Materials Disposition efforts support the 2002 G8 summit 
initiatives to purchase Russian HEU above the amounts in the 1993 U.S.-
Russia HEU Purchase Agreement. These additional amounts would be used 
to: (1) establish a reserve inventory of low enriched uranium for use as 
fuel in nuclear power reactors in the United States; (2) fuel five 
research reactors in the United States; (3) accelerate development of 
low enriched research reactor fuel designs, and (4) increase the amount 
of Russian HEU down-blended under the material consolidation and 
conversion program.

    Fissile Materials Disposition conducts activities in both the United 
States and Russia to dispose of fissile materials that would pose a 
threat to the United States if acquired by hostile nations or terrorist 
groups. In FY 2004 it will continue transferring surplus HEU from the Y-
12 Plant to the United States Enrichment Corporation; continue 
deliveries of off-specification HEU and low enriched uranium to TVA; 
begin site preparation and construction of the U.S. mixed oxide (MOX) 
fuel fabrication facility and purchase of long lead equipment; complete 
Title II design of the Pit Disassembly and Conversion Facility; begin 
construction of the Russian MOX fuel fabrication facility; fabricate 
U.S. and Russian MOX fuel lead assemblies, and publish final drafts of 
relevant licensing regulations.

    2006 Accelerated Completions.--Provides funding for completing 
cleanup and closing down facilities contaminated as a result of nuclear 
weapons production. This account includes all geographic sites with an 
accelerated cleanup plan closure date of 2006 or earlier (such as Rocky 
Flats, Fernald and Mound). In addition, this account provides funding 
for Environmental Management (EM) sites where overall site cleanup will 
not be complete by 2006 but cleanup projects within a site (for example, 
spent fuel removal, all transuranic (TRU) waste shipped off-site) will 
be complete by 2006.

    2012 Accelerated Completions.--Provides funding for completing 
cleanup and closing down facilities contaminated as a result of nuclear 
weapons production. This account includes all geographic sites with an 
accelerated cleanup plan closure date of 2007 through 2012 (such as 
Pantex and Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory--Site 300). In 
addition, this account provides funding for EM sites where overall site 
cleanup will not be complete by 2012 but cleanup projects within a site 
(for example, spent fuel removal and TRU waste shipped off-site) will be 
complete by 2012.

    2035 Accelerated Completions.--Provides funding for completing 
cleanup and closing down facilities contaminated as a result of nuclear 
weapons production. This account provides funding for site closures and 
site specific cleanup and closure projects that are expected to be 
completed after 2012. EM has established a goal of completing cleanup at 
all its sites by 2035.

    Safeguards and Security.--Provides funding to support safeguards and 
security required for sites at which EM has responsibility. This 
includes activities related to site-specific safeguards and security 
plans, facilities master security plans, cyber security plans, and 
personnel security programs at EM sites.

    Technology Development and Deployment.--This program focuses on high 
priority technical needs at near-term closure sites and projects. In 
addition, the technology program will focus on identifying technical 
vulnerabilities and alternative solutions in support of EM's accelerated 
cleanup strategies.

protective measures for DOE facilities and protection of its employees 
in the National Capital area; declassification/classification; foreign 
visits, assignments and travel; plutonium, uranium, and special nuclear 
material inventory; management of the Department's Emergency Operations 
Centers, Emergency Communications Network and the Continuity of 
Operations and Continuity of Government programs; and security 
investigations. These programs provide policy for the protection of the 
Department's nuclear weapons, nuclear materials, classified information, 
and facilities. They ensure a Department-wide capability to continue 
essential functions across a wide range of potential emergencies, 
allowing DOE to uphold its national security responsibilities and 
provide security clearances for federal and contractor personnel. Prior 
to 2003, Security was budgeted under Security and Emergency Operations.

    Energy Security and Assurance.--This program supports the national 
security of the United States by working to protect the Nation against 
significant energy supply disruptions. America's energy supply is 
essential to a strong economy and national security.

    Worker and community transition.--This program provides for the 
development, implementation, and funding of plans under section 3161 of 
the National Defense Authorization Act of 1993, to provide options to 
assist workers affected by workforce restructuring including preference 
in hiring, outplacement assistance, and relocation assistance. This 
program also provides impact assistance to local communities, as well as 
disposition of assets excess to current Department needs.

    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. The programs in the other defense activities are 
oversight, health studies, radiation effects research foundation, and 
employee compensation support as well as program direction.

    Independent oversight and performance assurance.--This program 
provides an independent assessment of the effectiveness of Departmental 
policies and site performance in the areas of environment, safety, 
health safeguards, security, emergency management, cyber security, and 
other critical functions. Appraisals are performed to determine whether 
site programs are effectively implemented and achieving Department-wide 
and site specific objectives.

    All other.--This category includes obligations for a portion of the 
projects reviewed under the Independent Assessment of DOE project 
funding. In addition, obligations are included for the National Security 
Programs Administrative Support and the Office of Hearings and Appeals. 
Responsibilities of the Office of Hearings and Appeals include 
adjudications of matters involving DOE and contractor employees' 
eligibility for security clearances, appeals of adverse determinations 
under the Freedom of Information and Privacy Acts. The Office of 
Hearings and Appeals adjudicates complaints of reprisals by contractor-
employees for ``whistleblowing'', and is the appeal authority in many 
other areas. During 2002, the Office of Hearings and Appeals was charged 
with the responsibility to decide worker advocacy appeals under the 
Energy Employee Occupational Illness Compensation Program Act of 2000 
and appeals arising under the new terms of OMB Circular A-76 regarding 
the contracting out of DOE functions.

[[Page 369]]

The Office also decides all requests for exception from DOE orders, 
rules and regulations.

    Office of Legacy Management.--Provides funding for conducting 
stewardship activities at sites where active remediation as a result of 
weapons production has been completed. These activities include records 
management, ground-water monitoring and the administration of post 
closure contractor liabilities.

    This appropriation was established by Congress as part of the 1993 
Energy and Water Development Appropriation (P.L. 102-377) in lieu of 
payment from the Department of Energy into the Nuclear Waste Fund for 
activities related to the disposal of defense high-level waste.

    The program's cost estimates reflect DOE's best projections, given 
the scope of work identified and planned schedule of required 
activities. Future budget requests for the Program have yet to be 
established and will be determined through the annual executive and 
congressional budget process.

    Since passage of the Nuclear Waste Policy Act of 1982, as amended, 
the Nuclear Waste Fund has incurred costs for activities related to 
disposal of high-level waste generated from the atomic energy defense 
activities of the Department of Energy. At the end of 2002 the balance 
owed by the Federal Government to the Nuclear Waste Fund was 
approximately $1,223 million (including principal and interest). The 
``Defense Nuclear Waste Disposal'' appropriation was established to 
ensure payment of the Federal Government's contribution to the nuclear 
waste repository program. Through 2002, a total of approximately $1,710 
million has been appropriated to support nuclear waste repository 
activities attributed to atomic energy defense activities.

    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 experimental research 
involves the study of collisions of energetic particles using large 
particle accelerators or colliding beam facilities.

    Research in 2004 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 2004 high energy physics budget request will support the 
continued operation of two of the Department's major high energy physics 
facilities: the Fermilab Tevatron and the Stanford B-Factory. Fixed 
target operations for the Alternate Gradient Synchroton HEP program were 
terminated in FY 2003. In addition, $48.8 million is provided for the 
Department's 2004 contribution to continued U.S. participation in the 
large hadron collider project at the European Center for Nuclear 
Research.

    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 request also includes $12.5 million 
for the neutrinos at the main injector construction project. The budget 
includes funds for an increasing emphasis on non-accelerator-based high 
energy physics research.

    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 2004, 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. These facilities 
provide new insights and advance our knowledge of the nature of matter 
and energy and develop the scientific knowledge, technologies and 
trained manpower needed to underpin the DOE's missions for nuclear 
related national security, energy and environmental quality.

    The Thomas Jefferson National Accelerator Facility/Continuous 
Electron Beam Accelerator Facility experimental program began in 1996 
and will continue in 2004. At the MIT/Bates accelerator a program of 
research utilizing the BLAST large acceptance detector will continue. 
Experimental operations at the Radioactive Ion Beam facility in Oak 
Ridge National Laboratory will continue in 2004. Operation of ATLAS 
(ANL) will be supported, as will the operation of the university-based 
accelerator laboratories. The 88-inch cyclotron (LBNL) will be 
terminated.

    The Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) research program will 
continue as RHIC and its four major detectors approach their full design 
potential, allowing researchers to explore a new regime of nuclear 
matter and nuclear interactions that up to now have only been 
characterized theoretically. Research and development for a possible 
future facility, the rare isotope accelerator, continues. The budget 
includes funds for an increasing emphasis on non-accelerator-based 
nuclear physics research.

    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 2004 activities include 
programs in global climate change; terrestrial, atmospheric and marine 
environmental processes; molecular, cellular and systemic studies on the 
biological effects of radiation; structural biology; medical 
applications of nuclear technology; and the Human Genome Program. 
Funding for the Human Genome Program is provided to continue high 
throughput human DNA sequencing. The program also supports science 
related to carbon sequestration and sequencing of genomes of microbes 
that use carbon dioxide to produce methane and hydrogen. In conjunction 
with the advanced scientific computing research program a global systems 
application is continued to accelerate progress in coupled general 
circulation model development through use of enhanced computer 
simulation and modeling.

The ``genomes to life'' activity, aimed at understanding the composition 
and function of biochemical networks that carry out essential processes 
of living organisms is funded at $59.0 million. In 2003, the 
Environmental Management Science Program and the Savannah River Ecology 
Laboratory were transferred from the Office of Environmental Management 
to the Office of Science. The biological and environmental research 
request includes funding to continue these two activities in 2004. 
Activities related to bioterrorism will be transferred in 2003 to the 
Department of Homeland Security.

    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 operating large 
national user research facilities, including synchrotron light and 
neutron sources, a combustion research facility, as well as smaller user 
facilities such as materials preparation and electron microscopy 
centers.

    The BES program supports a substantial basic research budget for 
materials sciences, chemical sciences, energy biosciences, engineering 
and 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 2004 BES budget request includes continued support to maintain 
utilization of the Department's large state-of-the-art science 
facilities. The proposed funding will maintain 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. Research areas 
that will benefit from the facilities funding include structural 
biology, materials science, superconductor technology, and medical 
research and technology development.

    In addition, the BES request includes $143.0 million in 2004 to 
continue construction at Oak Ridge National Laboratory for the 
Spallation Neutron Source (SNS) to meet the Nation's neutron scattering 
needs. The request includes $5 million to continue design and 
fabrication of additional instruments beyond the initial instrument 
suite included in the construction project. The SNS will provide 
significant scientific, technical, and economic benefits that derive 
from neutron scattering and materials irradiation research. This world 
class Neutron source will enable the Nation to carry out major research 
activities in areas such as biology, materials science, 
superconductivity, pharmaceuticals, and electronic materials, that are 
critical for future U.S. economic competitiveness and national security. 
Reflecting the high priority given to nanoscale research, basic energy 
sciences funding for the multi-agency national nanotechnology program is 
$193.0 million and includes PED funding for the nanoscale science 
research center (NSRC) at Brookhaven National Laboratory and 
construction funding for NSRC's at the Lawrence Berkeley, Oak Ridge, and 
Sandia National Laboratories. Equipment is funded for the NSRC at ANL, 
where the state of Illinois is providing funding for the building.

    Fusion Energy Sciences Program.--The fusion energy sciences program 
for 2004 continues to implement the recommendations of the reports by 
the National Research Council, the Secretary of Energy Advisory Board 
and recommendations of the Fusion Energy Science Advisory committee. The 
mission of the program is to advance plasma science, fusion science, and 
fusion technology. The program emphasizes the 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: understanding the physics of plasmas; identification and 
exploration of innovative and cost effective development paths to fusion 
energy; and exploration of the science and technology of energy 
producing plasmas, as a partner in an international effort.

    The budget includes funds for the Department to enter multilateral 
international negotiations aimed at building the International 
Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor (ITER), a burning plasma physics 
experiment that is an essential next step toward eventually developing 
fusion as a commercially viable energy source.

    The budget request provides for support of basic research in plasma 
science in partnership with NSF, plasma containment research, and 
investigation of tokamak alternatives, along with continued operation of 
DIII-D, Alcator C-Mod, and the National Spherical Torus Experiment. 
Research on alternate concepts is continued to develop a fuller 
understanding of the physics of magnetically confined plasma and to 
identify approaches that may improve the economical and environmental 
attractiveness of fusion. Fabrication of the new National Compact 
Stellarator experiment will continue at Princeton Plasma Physics 
Laboratory. The inertial fusion energy activity is exploring an 
alternative path for fusion energy that would capitalize on the major 
R&D effort in inertial confinement fusion which is carried out by NNSA 
for stockpile stewardship purposes. Theory and modeling efforts will be 
supported to develop a predictive capability for the operation of fusion 
experiments. Enabling technology research will also be conducted in 
support of the science experiments.

    Science laboratories infrastructure.--The goal of the science 
laboratories infrastructure program is to provide funds for 
rehabilitating, replacing or demolishing deficient common-use utilities, 
roads, and buildings and to correct Environment, Safety and Health 
deficiencies at the civilian science laboratories. An ``excess 
facilities disposal'' subprogram, first funded by Congress in 2002 as 
the Facilities and Infrastructure program, continues in 2004 in the 
Science Laboratories Infrastructure program. The Oak Ridge Landlord 
activity is also funded here.

    Advanced Scientific Computing Research (ASCR).--This program 
includes research in mathematical, information, and computational 
sciences and laboratory technology research activities. The purpose of 
the ASCR program is to support advanced computational research--applied 
mathematics, computer science, and networking--to enable the analysis, 
simulation and prediction of complex physical phenomena. The program 
also supports the operation of large supercomputer user facilities. The 
request includes research, integrated with other science programs, on 
application of computer simulation and modeling to science problems. The 
budget includes research funds to identify and address major 
architectural bottlenecks affecting the performance of existing and 
planned scientific applications for the next generation of high-end 
supercomputers.

    Safeguards and security.--The mission of this program is to ensure 
appropriate levels of protection and provide against: unauthorized 
access, theft, diversion, loss of custody, or destruction of Department 
of Energy assets and hostile acts that may cause adverse impacts on 
fundamental science, or the health and safety of DOE and contractor 
employees, the public, or the environment. The 2004 request provides 
funding for physical protection, protective forces, physical security, 
protective systems, information security, cyber security, personnel 
security, materials control and accountability and program management 
activities.

    Workforce development for teachers and scientists.--The mission of 
this program is to train young scientists, engineers, and technicians in 
the scientifically and technically advanced environment of the Office of 
Science national laboratories to meet the demand for a well trained 
scientific and technical workforce, including the teachers that educate 
the workforce.

    first generation ZEB homes, developing whole house energy 
    controller, and developing modeling tools and technology to optimize 
    and integrate energy systems. This year, ZEB activities begin a 
    transition into the Building Program under the Energy Conservation 
    account.
        Wind Energy: Develop in partnership with industry low wind-speed 
    technology to allow wind power to be cost-competitive in more 
    prevalent, lower-wind resources areas, and support related 
    technology base advances.
        Hydropower: Continue development of turbine systems to address 
    the primary environmental issues associated with licensing and 
    sustaining hydropower production.
        Geothermal Technology: Continue development of an enhanced 
    geothermal system that will allow the broader use of geothermal 
    energy throughout the western United States and conduct cooperative 
    research with industry to reduce the cost of geothermal development 
    and to identify new resources.
        Biomass and Biorefinery Systems: Continue R&D to achieve further 
    reductions in the costs of bio-based products and biofuels 
    production and to develop high-efficiency thermochemical and 
    biochemical conversion technologies.
        Intergovernmental Activities: The Tribal Energy program helps 
    Native Americans develop renewable energy resources on their lands 
    and helps Tribal leaders develop energy plans. The International 
    Renewable Energy program promotes the use of renewable energy 
    resources in international markets.
        Electric Reliability: The program provides a balanced research 
    and development portfolio of advanced electrical infrastructure 
    technologies--more efficient, higher capacity generators, 
    transformers, power lines, and storage systems--as well as 
    developing the technological platform for the ``smart'' grid of the 
    future where operators have immediate information about conditions 
    on their system and are able to take action to correct potential 
    problems.
        The Departmental Energy Management Program: Continue to fund, 
    through internal competition, the most cost effective opportunities 
    to improve energy efficiency in DOE's facilities, employing 
    renewable technologies as appropriate.
        National Climate Change Technology Initiative Competitive 
    Solicitation Program: Supports competitive solicitations to promote 
    applied research that has as its primary goal the reduction of 
    greenhouse gas emissions or the sequestration of greenhouse gases. 
    Competitive awards will be made based on maximum emissions reduction 
    potential per dollar spent. The Competitive Solicitation Program is 
    a key component of the President's National Climate Change 
    Technology Initiative and is intended to complement and enrich the 
    existing research and development portfolio of climate-related 
    technologies, which may help to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, but 
    are not necessarily designed to do so. Funding for this program is 
    also requested in the Energy Conservation account and the Fossil 
    Energy account.

    Nuclear fission.--The 2004 Budget continues to support the Nuclear 
Energy Technologies program, including the Nuclear Power 2010 program, 
which will aggressively pursue demonstration of key regulatory approval 
processes and foster the completion of cost-effective, advanced nuclear 
plant designs in order to pave the way for the deployment of new, 
advanced nuclear plants in the United States by 2010. Nuclear Energy 
Technologies also include the Generation IV Nuclear Energy Systems 
Initiative, where the United States will participate in multi-nation 
research and development projects to usher forth next-generation nuclear 
reactors and fuel cycles. In collaboration with the Generation IV 
Nuclear Energy Systems program, Advanced Fuel Cycle Initiative aims to 
develop and deploy technologies that will reduce the volume of high 
level waste from spent nuclear fuel, reduce the long-term radiotoxicity 
of spent nuclear fuel, reduce the long-term proliferation threat posed 
by civilian inventories of plutonium in spent fuel, and provide for 
proliferation resistant technologies to recover the energy content in 
spent nuclear fuel.

    The Department also continues to support the University program, 
preserving the education and training infrastructure needed to develop 
the next generation of nuclear scientists and engineers. In addition, 
the Administration's proposal supports the Nuclear Energy Research 
Initiative (NERI), an investigator-initiated, peer-reviewed research and 
development program that addresses key issues affecting the future of 
nuclear energy, including nuclear waste storage and disposal, nuclear 
plant economics and operational safety, and potential for weapons 
proliferation.

    Nuclear fission programs also support the Department's critical 
infrastructure necessary to enable research on advanced nuclear power 
systems for U.S. national security and other federal agencies, to 
support the production of radioisotopes for medical and other research 
purposes, and to maintain and operate the Department's nuclear 
facilities, including the Advanced Test Reactor and hot cells, in a 
safe, environmentally compliant and cost-effective manner. Beginning in 
2004, the Office of Nuclear Energy, Science and Technology's budget also 
includes funding for Idaho sitewide operations and safeguards and 
security programs, as part of the Lead Program Secretarial Office 
responsibilities for Idaho transitioning from the Office of 
Environmental Management.

    Environment, safety and health.--The Office of Environment, Safety 
and Health is a corporate resource that fosters protection of workers, 
the public, and the environment. The office develops and improves 
policies; monitors environment,

[[Page 374]]

safety, and health performance; and provides guidance, resources, and 
information sharing.

    Note that the budget request for the Office of Environment, Safety 
and Health programs is contained in two accounts: Energy Supply and 
Other Defense Activities. The funding in this account supports policy, 
standards and guidance and DOE-wide ES&H programs as well as program 
direction.

    Non-Closure Environmental Activities.--Funds activities that 
indirectly support EM's accelerated cleanup and closure mission such as 
gaseous diffusion plant uranium programs. These activities, while not in 
direct support of cleanup, provide valuable services to other 
Departmental priorities and missions.

    Community and Regulatory Support.--Funds activities that are 
indirectly related to on-the-ground cleanup results but are integral to 
EM's ability to conduct cleanup at our sites (for example, Agreements in 
Principles with state regulators and tribal nations and Site Specific 
Advisory Boards).

    Environmental Cleanup Projects.--Proivdes funds to support the 
transfer of additional contaminated excess facilities to the EM program 
from other Departmental programs for surveillance and maintenance and 
eventual decontamination and decommissioning (for example, the Fast Flux 
Test Facility beginning in 2004). These transfers constitute new work 
for the EM program.

    The Fossil Energy Research and Development program supports high-
priority, high-risk research that will improve the Nation's ability to 
use coal cleanly and efficiently. The program funds research and 
development that strengthens the technology base industry uses in 
developing new products and processes to support these national goals. 
Fossil Energy R&D supports activities ranging from early concept 
research in universities and national laboratories to applied R&D and 
proof-of-concept projects in private-sector firms.

    President's Coal Research Initiative.--The budget assumes that, 
following the merger with the Clean Coal Technology account in 2003, all 
DOE coal research activities are now carried out in the Fossil Energy 
R&D account as part of the Clean Coal Power initiative. Should funds be 
de-obligated from any pre-existing projects, these funds can be made 
available for new projects under this initiative. The Department will 
continue to increase involvement of the private sector and academia to 
help conduct and direct research toward the most critical barriers to 
expansion of coal use for power generation in the United States. This 
cooperative effort will require industry to share in the cost of 
research work, with the industry share increasing as technologies 
approach commercial stages. Technologies will be selected with the goal 
of accelerating development and deployment of coal technologies that 
will economically meet environmental standards, while increasing the 
efficiency and reliability of coal power plants. The coal R&D program 
will focus on addressing the energy and environmental demands of the 
post-2000 domestic market, and includes three elements: (1) Central 
systems, which includes the technologies for advanced coal-fueled power 
systems, and innovations for existing plants; (2) Sequestration R&D, 
which focuses on greenhouse gas capture and reduction; and (3) Advanced 
research, which, through early concept research, bridges fundamental 
research and engineering development. The program goals of these 
elements are integrated through the Vision 21 concept, aimed at doubling 
the existing power plant efficiency with the flexibility to produce 
high-value products from coal and other fuels while achieving near-zero 
pollution and reducing energy costs.

    As part of the program's Carbon Sequestration efforts, Fossil Energy 
will contribute funding to a joint effort with the Office of Nuclear 
Energy and the Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy called 
the National Climate Change Technology Initiative Competitive 
Solicitation Program. These funds will support competitive solicitations 
to promote applied research that has as its primary goal the reduction 
of greenhouse gas emissions or the sequestration of greenhouse gases. 
Competitive awards will be made based on maximum emissions reduction 
potential. The competitive solicitation program is a key component of 
the president's national climate change technology initiative and is 
intended to complement and enrich the existing research and development 
portfolio of climate change related technologies. The technologies in 
the existing portfolio may help reduce greenhouse gas emissions, but 
have been selected for the portfolio with a variety of goals in mind, 
not necessarily greenhouse gas reductions. This program is intended to 
have technologies compete head to head, based on their ability to reduce 
greenhouse gas in the atmosphere.

    Other Power Systems.--Other Power Systems focuses on novel power 
generation systems, distributed power generation systems including fuel 
cell technology, and supporting technology for all power systems.

    Oil and Gas.--The Oil and Gas programs will focus on supporting the 
President's initiatives on Clear Skies, Climate Change, and Energy 
Security. Activities include technology and analytical investments that 
support the Administration's objectives to increase domestic production, 
protect the environment, and build global alliances.

    Program direction and management support.--The 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 managing the 
environmental cleanup of former and present Fossil Energy project sites. 
Activities include environmental protection, onsite cleanup, and cleanup 
at several former offsite research and development locations in Wyoming 
and Connecticut and environmental efforts at the National Energy 
Technology Laboratory Morgantown and Pittsburgh sites, and the Albany 
Research Center.

    Import/Export Authorization.--This program will continue regulatory 
reviews and oversight of the transmission of natural gas and electricity 
across the U.S. borders.

    The Naval Petroleum and Oil Shale Reserves has historically managed, 
operated, maintained and produced the reserves to achieve the greatest 
value and benefit to the Government. From FY 1976 through FY 2000, NPOSR 
production activities generated a net income of $21 billion for the U.S. 
Treasury. As a result of the National Defense Authorization Act for FY 
1996, NPR-1 (Elk Hills) was sold to Occidental Petroleum Corporation and 
all three naval oil shale reserves (NOSR) have been transferred outside 
the Department. Administrative jurisdiction for NOSR-1 and NOSR-3 were 
transferred to the Department of the Interior to be made available for 
leasing. The third oil shale reserve, NOSR-2, was transferred to the Ute 
Indian Tribe in January 2000 in accordance with the Floyd D. Spence 
National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2001. The U.S. 
retains a 9% royalty interest in the value of any oil, gas, other 
hydrocarbons, and other minerals produced from the conveyed land, which 
will be applied to costs for remediation of the uranium mill tailings 
site near Moab, Utah. The most significant post-sale activity is the 
settlement of ownership equity shares with the former unit partner in 
the NPR-1 field, Chevron USA Inc. Geologic petroleum and reservoir 
engineering services are required to prepare and support the 
Government's equity position before an independent petroleum engineer 
and the Assistant Secretary for Fossil Energy, who is to impartially 
determine final equity shares. Each percentage point change in equity is 
worth millions of dollars to the Government. The FY2004 budget request 
supports activities for the two remaining Naval Petroleum Reserve 
properties--Naval Petroleum Reserve Number 2 in California, and Naval 
Petroleum Reserve Number 3 in Wyoming. The Elk Hills closeout work 
includes reservoir engineering analysis to determine final equity

    The Administration's energy efficiency programs have the potential 
to produce substantial benefits for the Nation--both now and in the 
future--in terms of economic growth, increased energy 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 Energy Policy Act of 1992 
and other authorizing legislation.

    The 2004 Budget proposes a major new initiative to accelerate the 
worldwide availability and affordability of hydrogen-powered fuel cell 
vehicles. The new FreedomFuel initiative will be a partnership with 
energy companies focused on research to advance hydrogen production, 
storage, and infrastructure. It complements the FreedomCAR partnership 
with the auto industry announced last year, which is aimed at developing 
viable hydrogen fuel cell vehicle technology.

    Vehicle Technologies.--This program supports the FreedomCAR and 21st 
Century Truck partnerships with industry. Program activities encompass a 
suite of technologies, including lightweight materials, electronic power 
control, high power storage, and hybrid electric drive motors. This 
program also supports research specifically aimed at improving the 
efficiency of energy conversion in advanced combustion engines and use 
of cleaner, more available alternative fuels.

    Fuel Cell Technologies.--This program supports the FreedomFuel and 
FreedomCAR partnerships and stationary fuel cell applications. The 
program develops fuel cell technologies that are more energy efficient, 
cleaner, safer, reliable, durable and lower in cost. The long-term aim 
is to accelerate progress toward an energy future for the Nation where 
hydrogen fuel cells plays a significant role as an energy carrier in all 
sectors of the economy and all regions of the country.

    Weatherization and Intergovernmental.--The Weatherization and 
Intergovernmental program funds activities that facilitate the movement 
of energy efficient and renewable energy products into the marketplace.
        Conservation grant programs.--The Weatherization Assistance 
    Program improves the energy efficiency of low-income homes by 
    providing technical assistance and formula grants to State and local 
    weatherization agencies. The State Energy Program provides financial 
    assistance to States through formula grants, enabling states to 
    individually tailor energy efficiency projects to local needs.

    Gateway Deployment.--is an integrated activity designed to provide 
technical and financial assistance to States and communities through 
activities such as Rebuild America, Energy Efficiency Information and 
Outreach, Building Codes Training and Assistance, Clean Cities, Energy 
Star, and Inventions and Innovations.

    Distributed Energy Resources.--This program funds research and 
development to transform the current, electrical generation sector to a 
smarter, more flexible and more efficient energy system through the 
development and integration of distributed generation and combined heat 
and power technologies.

    Building Technologies.--In partnership with the buildings industry, 
the program develops, promotes, and integrates energy technologies and 
practices to make buildings more efficient and affordable and 
communities more livable. The Building Technologies program accelerates 
the availability of highly efficient buildings technologies and 
practices through research and development; increases the minimum 
efficiency of buildings and equipment through building codes, appliance 
standards, and guidelines; and encourages the use of energy-efficient 
and renewable energy technologies and practices in residential and 
commercial buildings.

    Industrial Technologies.--The program focuses on funding cost-shared 
research in critical technology areas identified by industry. The 
Industries of the Future (Specific) program encourages the most energy-
intensive industries to develop a strategic vision and a ``technology 
roadmap'' to help achieve that vision. The Industries of the Future 
(Crosscutting) program develops technologies that are useful to multiple 
industries simultaneously, such as sensors and controls and advanced 
industrial materials, which address a multitude of wear and corrosion 
problems.

    Biomass and Biorefinery Systems R&D.--This program was formed by 
combining several activities under a single struc

[[Page 379]]

ture to achieve cost savings by focusing on a limited and coherent set 
of goals and objectives while exploiting synergies. The program includes 
the Agricultural Industries of the Future program, part of the Energy 
Performance Sensors and Controls activity, and biopower/biofuels 
activities funded under the Energy Supply account. The program focuses 
on reducing processing energy requirements and production costs in 
biomass processing plants and future integrated industrial 
biorefineries.

    Federal Energy Management Program.--This program reduces the cost 
and environmental impact of the Federal government by advancing energy 
efficiency and water conservation, promoting the use of renewable 
energy, and managing utility costs in Federal facilities and operations.

    National Climate Change Technology Initiative Competitive 
Solicitation Program.--Supports competitive solicitations to promote 
applied research that has as its primary goal the reduction of 
greenhouse gas emissions or the sequestration of greenhouse gases. 
Competitive awards will be made based on maximum emissions reduction 
potential per dollar spent. The Competitive Solicitation Program is a 
key component of the President's National Climate Change Technology 
Initiative and is intended to complement and enrich the existing 
research and development portfolio of climate change-related 
technologies, which may help to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, but are 
not necessarily designed to do so. Funding for this program is also 
requested in the Fossil Energy account and Energy Supply account.

    The object of this program is to reduce the vulnerability of the 
United States to energy supply disruptions by maintaining a crude oil 
stockpile capable of rapid deployment at the direction of the President. 
This program enables the President to meet the Nation's membership 
commitments within the International Energy Agency's coordinated energy 
emergency response plans and programs to deter the use of energy supply 
disruptions and to take effective, co-ordinated action should such an 
energy supply disruption occur.

    The account provides for ongoing storage site operations and 
maintenance activities, planning activities, drawdown testing/readiness 
of the Reserve, planning studies, and program administration. Continuous 
removal of excess gas from the SPR crude oil inventory will commence in 
2004.

    The key measure of program performance is expressed as capability to 
comply with Level 1 Technical and Performance Criteria. These criteria 
are specific engineered performance and reliability standards applied to 
critical inventory storage, drawdown, and distribution systems required 
for drawing down and distributing crude oil inventory.

    This account provides for the acquisition, transportation, and 
injection of petroleum into the Strategic Petroleum Reserve. This 
account funds all Strategic Petroleum Reserve petroleum inventory 
acquisitions, associated transportation costs, U.S. Customs duties, 
terminal throughput charges, incremental drawdown costs, and other 
related miscellaneous costs. The Department of Energy was directed to 
add approximately 108 million barrels of oil to the SPR using royalty 
oil from federal offshore leases. Filling the SPR addresses the 
President's initiative to enhance the energy security of the United 
States by strengthening the nation's capability to respond to potential 
oil supply disruptions. The FY 2003 request included $11.0 million in 
the Petroleum Account for Royalty oil. Funding is not requested in the 
FY 2004 budget for Royalty Oil due to a contractual change making 
transportation charges for Royalty-In-Kind fill the responsibility of 
the contractors.

    The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (Commission) regulates key 
interstate aspects of the electric power, natural gas, oil pipeline, and 
hydropower industries. The Commission chooses regulatory approaches that 
foster competitive markets whenever possible, assures access to reliable 
service at a reasonable price, and gives full and fair consideration to 
environmental and community impacts in assessing the public interest of 
energy projects. Regulated businesses pay fees and charges sufficient to 
recover the Government's full costs of operations.

    Energy Infrastructure.--The Commission must promote a secure, high 
quality and environmentally responsible infrastructure through 
consistent policies to meet market and operational demands. The 
Commission determines just and reasonable rates for the interstate 
transportation of natural gas and oil on the pipelines subject to the 
Commission's jurisdiction and sets rates for the interstate transmission 
and wholesale sales of electric energy. It approves rates for all 
Federal power marketing administrations, but not for TVA. The Commission 
also certifies three special classes of power generators: cogeneration 
facilities, small power production facilities, and exempt wholesale 
generators. Furthermore, the Commission authorizes tariff provisions, as 
appropriate, to allow the gas and oil pipelines and public utilities to 
adjust their services to meet their customers' needs and the utilities' 
needs to meet competition in their markets. The Commission has and will 
continue to develop creative and flexible pricing policies and new 
incentive mechanisms to promote the development of the nation's electric 
and gas infrastructures and support the competitive marketplace.

    The Commission will continue to ensure that environmental concerns 
involving energy projects are properly addressed and that the public 
interest is protected when new hydropower projects are licensed or 
relicensed and when new natural gas pipeline services are authorized. 
The Commission issues preliminary permits, exemptions, licenses and 
relicenses for non-federal hydroelectric projects, enforces their terms 
and conditions, and performs dam safety inspections. It regulates over 
1,660 hydroelectric projects, which supply about 5 percent of the 
electric energy generated in the United States. The Commission 
investigates to determine the amount of headwater benefits derived from 
federally owned and FERC-licensed headwater improvements, collects this 
amount from licensees, and returns it to the U.S. Treasury. The 
Commission also issues certificates authorizing natural gas pipelines to 
construct and operate new facilities and to provide new services.

    In FY 2002, the Commission held several conferences on the security 
and other emergency issues of liquefied natural gas shipments, river 
crossing facilities, and other infrastructure, and engaged in ongoing 
discussions with the Departments of Transportation and Energy regarding 
safety and security matters. The Commission also created an 
infrastructure policy group for the express purpose of identifying 
present infrastructure conditions, needs, investment and other barriers 
to expansion, and environmental and landowner concerns.

    Competitive Energy Markets.--The Commission fosters nationwide 
competitive energy markets in addition to continuing to regulate 
transmission providers subject to its jurisdiction. Since enactment of 
the Energy Policy Act of 1992, the Commission has introduced a number of 
initiatives to foster wholesale competition in the generation sector of 
the electric utility industry. In 1996, the Commission issued Order Nos. 
888 and 889, which require all jurisdictional public utilities to 
provide open access transmission service to all wholesale customers 
under standard terms and conditions. At the end of 1999, the Commission 
issued Order No. 2000, which called on utilities to voluntarily form 
regional transmission organizations (RTOs), with Commission approval, to 
facilitate the efficient exchange of electricity over large regions of 
the country.

    Much was accomplished in establishing RTOs by the end of calendar 
year 2002. The Midwest Independent System Operator, Inc. (Midwest ISO) 
was approved by the Commission as an RTO in December 2001 and commenced 
operations in February 2002 in all or parts of several Midwestern states 
and one Canadian province. The Southwest Power Pool (SPP) has proposed 
to join the Midwest ISO. The Pennsylvania-New Jersey-Maryland 
Interconnection (PJM), which was granted RTO status in December 2002, is 
working with the Midwest ISO and SPP to create a joint and common market 
that will span from the Atlantic Ocean to the Rocky Mountains. Finally, 
the Commission (1) approved essential parts of SeTrans RTO, which would 
extend over eight Southeastern states; (2) gave preliminary approval to 
WestConnect RTO, which would operate in parts of the Desert Southwest 
states of Arizona, Colorado, New Mexico and Utah, and (3) approved key 
aspects of the RTO West proposal, which includes all, or part of, eight 
Pacific Northwest states.

    In July 2002, the Commission proposed for public comment a new rule 
to adopt a standard design for electric power markets using the best 
practices from around the country and the world. The intent of the 
standard market design proposal is to build on existing RTO formation 
efforts and to allow regional variation in appropriate aspects of market 
design. Standardized business rules and practices will maximize market 
efficiency, ease market entry, and transactions costs.

    Market Oversight.--The Commission must protect customers and market 
participants through vigilant and fair oversight of the transitioning 
energy markets. The Commission will strengthen the role of RTO market 
monitoring units and will count on them as the first line of defense 
against problems. The Commission will ensure procompetitive market 
structures by identifying and remedying problems, assessing market and 
infrastructure conditions against objective benchmarks, and periodically 
reviewing and revising market rules for sustained, long-term development 
of energy markets. To this end, the Commission will publish a Seasonal 
Market Assessment for the summer cooling season and again for the winter 
heating season. This will allow for correction of major potential 
problems in the markets before they become serious. The Commission will 
also issue an annual State of the Markets Report, to review overall 
market performance for both natural gas and electricity and highlight 
longer term issues. In addition, the Commission will continue to ensure 
that mergers and consolidations are consistent with pro-competitive 
goals. The Commission will detect abuses of market power quickly and use 
prohibitions and penalties as necessary to remove, prevent, and deter 
abuses. The Commission will conduct investigations as warranted and act 
on complaints, using litigation before administrative law judges as 
necessary.

    Resource Management.--Efficient management of resources facilitates 
accomplishing the Commission's regulatory mission. Resource management 
includes human resources manage

[[Page 383]]

ment and development, financial management, including budget formulation 
and execution, strategic and business planning, and procurement, 
information technology, and external communications.

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

    Upon default of the borrower in 1985 under a Federal loan guarantee, 
the Department acquired ownership of the Great Plains plant by 
foreclosure. On October 31, 1988, the Department completed an asset 
purchase agreement of the Great Plains Gasification Plant by Dakota 
Gasification Company (DGC).

    Negotiated settlement agreements dated February 16, 1994, resolved 
all past disputes as well as restructured the Gas Purchase Agreements 
pricing provisions. In a separate agreement with DOE, DGC agreed to pay 
DOE $25 million over the 7 year period of time DGC receives the demand 
payments from the pipeline companies.

    Funds in this account are used to pay for expenses and 
responsibilities related to the Department's prior operation of the 
Great Plains Coal Gasification Project and the administration of the 
Asset Purchase Agreement which transferred the facility to the private 
sector. During FY 2002, the largest costs were for technical analysis to 
determine the reduction in net synthetic natural gas production at the 
Great Plains Synfuels Plant caused by the operation of an Anhydrous 
Ammonia Synthesis Plant within the larger gasification facility, and its 
effect on revenues. Remaining outstanding obligations are for carrying 
out contractual obligations to the termination of the contract in 2009. 
The Federal revenue sharing receipts are based on this review and 
analysis.

    In FY 2002, the Department of Energy received $12.8 million in 
revenue sharing payments from Dakota Gasification Company. The $12.8 
million was returned by the Department of Energy to the Treasury as 
Miscellaneous Receipts. Future revenue sharing payments to the 
Department are dependent upon natural gas prices.

    Title XXXIV, Subtitle B of Public Law 104-106 required the 
Department to sell the government's interest in Naval Petroleum Reserve 
No. 1 (Elk Hills) pursuant to the terms of the Act. The sale occurred in 
February 1998, following a statutorily-required 31-day congressional 
review period.

    Section 3415 of the Act required, among other things, that the 
Department make an offer of settlement based on the fair value of the 
State of California's longstanding claims to two parcels of land 
(``school lands'') within the Reserve. Under the Act, nine percent of 
the net proceeds were reserved in contingent fund in the Treasury for 
payment to the State. In compliance with the Act and in order to remove 
any cloud over title which could diminish the sales value of the 
Reserve, the Department entered into a settlement agreement with the 
State on October 11, 1996. That agreement calls for payment to the 
State, subject to appropriations, of nine percent of the net proceeds of 
sale, payable over a seven-year period (without interest), commencing in 
1999. Under the settlement agreement and provided that funds are 
appropriated, the first five installments are for $36 million each year, 
and the remaining balance is to be paid in two equal installments in 
years six and seven. The budget requests $36 million in 2004 for the 
sixth installment payment.

                                

           Arctic National Wildlife Refuge, Alternative Energy

                (Legislative proposal, subject to PAYGO)

    The budget includes a proposal to use the Federal share of bonus 
bids from opening a small portion of the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge 
to oil and gas exploration to supplement the funding for renewable and 
related energy research. The budget assumes that 1.2 billion of the 
bonus bids that would come to the Federal Government in 2005 would be 
spent on alternative and renewable energy resources programs over a 
period of seven years.

    On July 10, 2000, the President directed the Department of Energy to 
establish a 2-million barrel home heating oil reserve in the Northeast 
capable of assuring home heating oil supply for the Northeast states 
during times of very low inventories and significant threats to 
immediate further supply. Two million barrels provide Northeast 
consumers adequate supplies for approximately 10 days, the time required 
for ships to carry heating oil from the Gulf of Mexico to New York 
Harbor for distribution.

    On March 6, 2001, Secretary Spencer Abraham announced the 
establishment of the reserve as a permanent part of America's energy 
readiness effort, separate from the Strategic Petroleum Reserve. The 
original storage contracts were re-competed in the Spring of 2002 and 
contracts were awarded in New York Harbor, New Haven, Connecticut and 
Rhode Island. The 2004 Budget provides $5 million to continue leasing 
commercial storage space and provides for administrative support from 
the Defense Energy Support Center (DESC).

    Because of the long-term nature of the project, the need to ensure 
the territorial integrity, security, and isolation of the site, and in 
satisfaction of Nuclear Regulatory Commission licensing requirements, 
the Administration plans to submit a proposal to withdraw permanently 
from settlement, sale, location, or entry under some or all of the 
general land laws, certain lands comprising and contiguous to the Yucca 
Mountain geologic repository operations area.

    Growing quantities of spent nuclear fuel and high-level radioactive 
waste have been accumulating at commercial nuclear reactor sites and 
storage facilities across the country for half a century. They come from 
nuclear plants generating commercial electric power, nuclear weapons 
production, the operation of naval reactors, and Federal research and 
development activities. At Congress's direction, DOE has investigated 
the suitability of a storage site at Yucca Mountain, Nevada, 100 miles 
northwest of Las Vegas, for over 20 years. Based on sound science and 
compelling national interests, the President signed House Joint 
Resolution 87 approving the site at Yucca Mountain, Nevada for 
development as a geologic repository for the Nation's nuclear waste. The 
budget provides sufficient funding for DOE to prepare a license 
application to meet its plan for receipt of nuclear waste at the 
repository beginning in 2010. The Administration also will seek 
additional funding to begin essential transportation-related activities 
and provide a long-term management and financing plan for the entire 
licensing and construction effort. The Administration is committed to 
ensuring the environmentally sound and safe disposal of the Nation's 
radioactive waste.

    In 2002, actual interest earnings were $1,598 million, and they are 
estimated to decline to $731 million in 2003 and $794 million in 2004. 
The reason for the decline is that the decrease in market interest rates 
in 2002 significantly increased the market value of the zero-coupon 
bonds held by the fund, and the interest earnings on these bonds is 
calculated as the change in market value. In 2002 and 2003, interest 
earnings are projected based on the effective yield method, instead of 
estimating the change in market value. We use the effective yield 
approach, because interest rates are impossible to predict accurately 
and because it is a simple method of projecting what will happen in the 
future ``on average.'' The effective yield method is consistent with a 
small increase in market value.

    The Alaska Power Administration (APA) was created in 1967 by the 
Secretary of the Interior to assume the functions of the Bureau of 
Reclamation in Alaska--the operations, maintenance, transmission, and 
power marketing of the two Federal hydroelectric projects (Eklutna and 
Snettisham), and the investigation of future water and power development 
programs.

    The Alaska Power Administration Asset Sale and Termination Act 
(Public Law 104-58), signed into law on November 28, 1995, authorizes 
and directs the sale of all Alaska Power Administration assets and the 
subsequent termination of APA. The Eklutna project was sold on October 
2, 1997, for a cash payment of $5,953,000. The Snettisham project was 
sold on August 18, 1998, for $81,966,177.

    All remaining Alaska activities of APA, including the Juneau 
headquarters office, were terminated on September 30, 1998. Unobligated 
transition and termination balances were used to complete remaining 
close-out activities and report preparation in Washington, D.C. in 1999.

                                

      Operation and Maintenance, Southeastern Power Administration

    For necessary expenses of operation and maintenance of power 
transmission facilities and of marketing electric power and energy, 
including transmission wheeling and ancillary services, pursuant to the 
provisions of section 5 of the Flood Control Act of 1944 (16 U.S.C. 
825s), as applied to the southeastern power area, $5,100,000, to remain 
available until expended; in addition, $16,000,000 shall be credited to 
this account as customer advances, to remain available until expended 
for the sole purpose of making purchase power and wheeling expenditures.

    Note.--A regular 2003 appropriation for this account had not been 
enacted at the time the budget was prepared; therefore, this account is 
operating under a continuing resolution (P.L. 107-229, as amended). The 
amounts included for 2003 in this budget reflect the Administration's 
2003 policy proposals.

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

    Southeastern sells wholesale power primarily to publicly and 
cooperatively-owned electric distribution utilities. Southeastern 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.

    Program direction.--Provision is made for negotiation and 
administration of transmission and power contracts, collection of 
revenues, development of wholesale power rates, the amortization of 
power investment, energy efficiency and competitiveness program, 
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.

    Use of receipts for Corps O&M funding.--In FY 2004, the 
Administration proposes to fund U.S. Army Corps of Engineers' power 
related operation and maintenance costs in Southeastern's service area 
from Southeastern receipts derived from the sale of power. Proprietary 
receipts estimated for FY 2004 are decreased to reflect implementation 
of this proposal.

    Purchase power and wheeling.--Between 2001 and 2004, the 
Southeastern Power Administration will phase-out Fed

[[Page 389]]

eral financing of purchase power and wheeling activities. Authority to 
spend power revenues to pay for purchase of power and wheeling 
activities will end after 2004. Industry restructuring and resulting 
competition now make it attractive for Southeastern's customers to shop 
for power and transmission services. Southeastern may continue to 
support customer bill crediting, net billing and other alternative 
financing arrangements for these activities.

    Based on Administration policy, the Southeastern Power 
Administration will set rates consistent with current law to recover the 
full cost of the Civil Service Retirement System and post-retirement 
health benefits for its employees.

    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 1,380 miles of 
high voltage transmission line, 24 substations and switching stations, 
and 46 VHF radio and microwave stations. Southwestern sells its power at 
wholesale primarily to publicly and cooperatively owned electric 
distribution utilities. Its power sales 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 is also 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 program costs related 
to the operation, maintenance, and support functions of the power system 
and includes salaries and benefits, travel, support services, rent, 
communications, and other related expenses.

    Systems operation and maintenance.--Provision is made for 
engineering assessments of issues and alternatives that could adversely 
impact or optimize the operation of Southwestern's hydroelectric 
resources. Provision is also made for maintenance and replacements of 
transmission system facilities to ensure reliable service, negotiation 
and administration of power contracts, collection of revenue, 
development of wholesale power rates and the depreciation of the power 
investment.

    Purchase power and wheeling.--Between 2001 and 2004, the 
Southwestern Power Administration will phase-out Federal financing of 
purchase power and wheeling activities. Authority to spend power 
revenues to pay for purchase of power and wheeling activities will end 
after 2004. Industry restructuring and resulting competition now make it 
attractive for Southwestern's customers to shop for power and 
transmission services. Southwestern may continue to support customer 
bill crediting, net billing and other alternative financing arrangements 
for these activities.

    Construction.--The construction program provides for transmission, 
substation, switching and control facility replacements 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 addresses customer requirements.

    Reimbursable program.--This program involves services provided by 
Southwestern Power Administration to others under various types of 
reimbursable arrangements. In FY 2004 and thereafter, Southwestern 
proposes to continue acceptance of advance funding from non-Federal 
entities for work related to activities authorized under the Flood 
Control Act of 1944.

    Use of receipts for Corps O&M funding.--In FY 2004, the 
Administration proposes to fund U.S. Army Corps of Engineers' power 
related operation and maintenance costs in Southwestern's service area 
from Southwestern receipts derived from the sale of power. Proprietary 
receipts estimated for FY 2004 are decreased to reflect implementation 
of this proposal.

    Based on Administration policy the Southwestern Power Administration 
will set rates consistent with current law to recover the full cost of 
the civil service retirement system and post-retirement health benefits 
for its employees.

           Continuing Fund, Southwestern Power Administration

    A Continuing Fund of $300,000, replenished from receipts from the 
sale and transmission of electric power in the southwestern area, is 
available permanently for emergency expenses necessary to ensure 
continuity of service (16 U.S.C. 825s-2). The fund was last activated 
during fiscal year 2001 to finance power purchases associated with below 
normal hydropower generation due to drought and to repair transmission 
facilities due to storm damage.

    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 almost 17,000 circuit-miles of high-voltage transmission line, 
more than 260 substations/switchyards, and associated power system 
control, communication and electrical facilities for 15 separate power 
projects. Western also constructs additions and modifications to 
existing facilities.

    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, other costs allocated to power, 
and the capital investment in power facilities, with interest.

    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 and the 
Colorado River Basins Power Marketing Fund.

    Systems operation and maintenance.--The systems operation and 
maintenance activity provides essential electrical and communication 
equipment replacements, and upgrades, capitalized moveable equipment, 
technical services, and supplies and materials necessary for safe 
reliable operation and cost-effective maintenance of the power systems.

    Purchase power and wheeling.--Between 2001 and 2004, the Western 
Area Power Administration will phase-out Federal financing of purchase 
power and wheeling activities. Authority to spend power revenues to pay 
for purchase power and wheeling activities will end after fiscal year 
2004. Industry restructuring and resulting competition now make it 
attractive for Western's customers to shop for power and transmission 
services. Western will continue to support customer bill crediting, net 
billing and other alternative financing arrangements for these 
activities.

    System construction.--Western's construction and rehabilitation 
activity emphasizes replacement and upgrades of existing infrastructure 
to sustain reliable power delivery to its 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 replacements, upgrades and additions (system 
construction program) to the transmission facilities.

    Utah mitigation and conservation.--This account is earmarked 
primarily for environmental mitigation expenditures covering fish and 
wildlife, and recreation resources impacted by the Central Utah Project 
and the Colorado River Storage Project in the State of Utah. The FY 2004 
President's Budget proposes to transfer the authorities and future 
contributions for the Utah Reclamation Mitigation and Conservation 
Account from the Secretary of Energy, Western Area Power Administration 
to the Secretary of the Interior, Bureau of Reclamation. Western sells 
and transmits power from two projects in Utah and provides mitigation 
funding separately for these operations. Western does not transmit power 
from the Central Utah Project.

    Reimbursable program.--This program involves services provided by 
Western to others under various types of reimbursable arrangements.

    Western will continue to spend directly out of the Colorado River 
Dam Fund for operations and maintenance activities associated with the 
Boulder Canyon Project. The Colorado River Dam Fund is a revolving fund 
operated by the Interior Department's Bureau of Reclamation. Authority 
for Western

[[Page 392]]

to obligate directly from the Colorado River Dam Fund comes from section 
104(a) of the Hoover Power Plant Act of 1984.

    Based on Administration policy, the Western Area Power 
Administration will set rates consistent with current law to recover the 
full cost of the Civil Service Retirement System and post-retirement 
health benefits for its employees.

    In FY 2004, the Administration proposes that financing of the U.S. 
Army Corps of Engineers' operation and maintenance costs in Western's 
service area, allocated to the power function for repayment, may be 
funded from Western receipts derived from the sale of power and related 
services. Proprietary receipts estimated for FY 2004 are decreased to 
reflect the implementation of this proposal.

    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 10 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 2003 to consist of an estimated 15,000 circuit miles of high-
voltage transmission lines and 285 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 forty-
five percent of the region's electric energy supply and about three-
fourths 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 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. The FY 2004 budget includes a proposal to increase 
BPA borrowing authority by $700 million to finance planned 
infrastructure investments.

    Operating expenses: Transmission services business line.--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 15,000 
miles of line and 285 substations, and for maintaining the facilities 
and equipment of the Bonneville transmission system in 2004.

    Power business line.--Provides for the planning, contractual 
acquisition and oversight of reliable, cost effective resources. These 
resources are needed to serve BPA's portion of the region's forecasted 
net electric load requirements. 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 payment of the operation and 
maintenance (O&M) costs of the 31 U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and U.S. 
Bureau of Reclamation hydro projects, and amortization on the U.S. 
Bureau of Reclamation capital investment in power generating facilities 
and irrigation assistance at Bureau facilities. Provides for the 
planning, contrac

[[Page 394]]

tual acquisition and oversight of reliable, cost effective conservation. 
Also 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 and 
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. In implementing the new borrowing 
authority, Bonneville will encourage private-sector or other non-federal 
financing or joint financing of transmission line expansions and 
additions, develop a five-year investment plan with the participation of 
the regional Infrastructure Technical Review Committee or its successor 
in the region, use funds only for authorized purposes, include the 
proposed use of the funds in its annual budget submissions, and select 
projects based on cost effectiveness criteria for achieving the 
objective. This category also includes interest on Corps of Engineers, 
BPA and U.S. Bureau of Reclamation appropriated debt.

    Capital Investments: Transmission services business line.--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. 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.

    Power business line.--Provides for direct funding of additions, 
improvements, and replacements at existing Federal hydroelectric 
projects in the Northwest. Also 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. Also provides for the planning, contractual acquisition and 
oversight of reliable, cost effective conservation.

    Capital equipment/Capitalized bond premium.--Provides for general 
purpose ADP equipment, office furniture and equipment, and software 
capital development in support of all BPA programs. Also provides for 
bond premiums incurred for refinancing of bonds.

    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 2004 capital obligations 
are estimated to be $528.0 million. To the extent BPA capital borrowing 
authority is insufficient in 2004, BPA would use cash reserves generated 
by revenues from customers, if available, to finance some of these 
investments.

    In 2002, BPA made payments to the Treasury of $1.056 billion and 
also expects to make payments of $788.0 million in 2003 and $716.0 
million in 2004. The 2004 payment will be distributed as follows: 
interest on bonds and appropriations ($464.0 million), amortization 
($221.0 million), and other ($31.0 million). BPA also received credits 
totaling $38 million applied against its Treasury payments in 2002 to 
reflect amounts diverted to fish mitigation efforts in the Columbia and 
Snake River systems.

    Direct loans.--During 2004, no new direct loan obligations may be 
made.

    Operating results.--Total revenues are forecast at approximately 
$4.1 billion in 2004.

    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.

    Consistent with Administration policy, BPA will continue to fully 
recover, from the sale of electric power and transmission, funds 
sufficient to cover the full cost of Civil Service Retirement System and 
Post-Retirement Health Benefits for their employees. The entire cost of 
BPA employees working under the Federal Employees Retirement System is 
already fully recovered in wholesale electric power and transmission 
rates.

    Western's operation and maintenance (O&M) 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.

    Program direction.--Western operates and maintains approximately 
4,000 miles of transmission lines, substations, switchyards, 
communications and control equipment associated with this Fund. The 
personnel compensation and related expenses for all these activities are 
quantified 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 O&M 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 transferred to the Lower 
Colorado River Basin Development Fund.

    Fort Peck Project.--Revenue collected by Western is used to defray 
operation and maintenance and power marketing expenses associated with 
the power generation and transmission facilities of the Fort Peck 
Project, Corps of Engineers--Civil, to defray emergency expenses, and 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.

policies, based on integrated and well-founded data and policy analysis. 
The Office represents the Department in interagency discussions on 
energy and related policy, and addresses all aspects of the U.S. energy 
sector including energy availability, reliability, and economic 
efficiency. It has primary responsibility for the Department's 
international energy affairs, including energy policy issues, energy 
emergency and national security issues, and technology cooperation. It 
considers the global and local environmental impacts of energy 
production and use. The Office also develops and leads the Department's 
bilateral and multilateral cooperation and investment and trade 
activities with other nations and international agencies. It also works 
closely with the various organizational elements of the Department and 
other relevant federal organizations and agencies and domestic 
institutions to coordinate and align national security and energy 
emergency activities.

    The Office of Policy and International Affairs will establish an

                           GENERAL PROVISIONS

    Sec. 301. (a) None of the funds appropriated by this Act may be used 
to award a management and operating contract, or award a significant 
extension or expansion to an existing management and operating contract, 
unless such contract is awarded using competitive procedures or the 
Secretary of Energy grants, on a case-by-case basis, a waiver to allow 
for such a deviation. The Secretary may not delegate the authority to 
grant such a waiver.
    (b) At least 60 days before a contract award for which the Secretary 
intends to grant such a waiver, the Secretary shall submit to the 
Subcommittees on Energy and Water Development of the Committees on 
Appropriations of the House of Representatives and the Senate a report 
notifying the Subcommittees of the waiver and setting forth, in 
specificity, the substantive reasons why the Secretary believes the 
requirement for competition should be waived for this particular award.
    Sec. 302. None of the funds appropriated by this Act may be used 
to--
        (1) develop or implement a workforce restructuring plan that 
    covers employees of the Department of Energy; or

    Sec. 304. The unexpended balances of prior appropriations provided 
for activities in this Act may be transferred to appropriation accounts 
for such activities established pursuant to this title. Balances so 
transferred may be merged with funds in the applicable established 
accounts and thereafter may be accounted for as one fund for the same 
time period as originally enacted.
    Sec. 305. None of the funds in this or any other Act for the 
Administrator of the Bonneville Power Administration may be used to 
enter into any agreement to perform energy efficiency services outside 
the legally defined Bonneville service territory, with the exception of 
services provided internationally, including services provided on a 
reimbursable basis, unless the Administrator certifies in advance that 
such services are not available from private sector businesses.
    Sec. 306. When the Department of Energy makes a user facility 
available to universities and other potential users, or seeks input from 
universities and other potential users regarding significant 
characteristics or equipment in a user facility or a proposed user 
facility, the Department shall ensure broad public notice of such 
availability or such need for input to universities and other potential 
users. For purposes of this section, the term ``user facility'' 
includes, but is not limited to: (1) a user facility as described in

Programs Technology Deployment Center/User Facility; and (3) any other 
Departmental facility designated by the Department as a user facility.
    Sec. 307. The Administrator of the National Nuclear Security 
Administration may authorize the plant manager of a covered nuclear 
weapons research, development, testing or production facility to engage 
in research, development, and demonstration activities with respect to 
the engineering and manufacturing capabilities at such facility in order 
to maintain and enhance such capabilities at such facility: Provided, 
That of the amount allocated to a covered nuclear weapons facility each 
fiscal year from amounts available to the Department of Energy for such 
fiscal year for national security programs, not more than an amount 
equal to 2 percent of such amount may be used for these activities: 
Provided further, That for purposes of this section, the term ``covered 
nuclear weapons facility'' means the following:
        (1) the Kansas City Plant, Kansas City, Missouri;
