    Enacted in 1998, the Workforce Investment Act (WIA), is the primary 
authorization for this appropriation account. The act is intended to 
revitalize the Nation's job training system to provide workers with the 
information, advice, job search assistance, and training they need to 
get and keep good jobs, and to provide employers with skilled workers. 
Funds appropriated for this account generally are available on a July to 
June program year basis, but for 2000 through 2003 substantial advance 
appropriation amounts were provided.

    Adult employment and training activities.--Grants to provide 
financial assistance to States and territories to design and operate 
training and employment assistance programs for adults, including low-
income individuals and public assistance recipients.

    Dislocated worker employment and training activities.--Grants to 
provide reemployment services and retraining assistance to individuals 
dislocated from their employment.

    Youth activities.--Grants to support a wide range of activities and 
services to prepare low-income youth for academic and employment 
success, including summer jobs. The program links academic and 
occupational learning with youth development activities.

    Job corps.--A system of primarily residential centers offering basic 
education, training, work experience, and other support, typically to 
economically disadvantaged youth.

    Prisoner Re-Entry Initiative.--Supports activities to help 
individuals exiting prison make a successful transition to community 
life and long-term employment. The 2005 Budget proposes a four-year 
Prisoner Re-Entry Initiative, involving the Departments of Justice, 
Labor, and Housing and Urban Development, which will fund grants to 
faith-based and community organizations to help reduce recidivism among 
ex-offenders through mentorships, job training, and other critical 
services.

    Native Americans.--Grants to Indian tribes and other Native American 
groups to provide training, work experience, and other employment-
related services to Native Americans.

    National programs.--Provides program support for WIA activities and 
nationally administered programs for segments of the population that 
have special disadvantages in the labor market.

    Community College Initiative.--A new grant program to provide 
training through community colleges that will be focused on industries 
with demonstrated labor shortages.

    Personal Re-employment Accounts.--A new pilot program to offer 
personal re-employment accounts for unemployment insurance recipients.

    Legislation will be proposed for 2005 to reauthorize the Workforce 
Investment Act (WIA). The reauthorization proposal will increase State 
flexibility and target resources more effectively. For adults, the 
proposal will consolidate the Adult, Dislocated Worker and Employment 
Service State Grants into a single block grant to facilitate 
coordination and eliminate duplication in the provision of services to 
adults. For youth, the proposal will minimize overlap between the 
Departments of Labor (DOL) and Education by targeting all of DOL's 
formula resources to out-of-school youth programs and national grant 
resources to non-school and out-of-school youth programs that have 
proven effective.

    This account provides funding for activities of the Welfare-to-Work 
Grants program, which was established by the Balanced Budget Act of 1997 
(P.L. 105-33) appropriating funding for 1998 and 1999. Funds were made 
available for expenditure for up to 5 years after they were provided. 
H.R. 2673, Consolidated Appropriations Bill, 2004 rescinds 1999 formula 
grant funding in this program that is unexpended on the date of 
enactment of the bill. This program provided formula grants to States 
and federally administered competitive grants to local workforce boards, 
political subdivisions of States, and private entities to assist hard-
to-employ welfare recipients to secure lasting, unsubsidized employment.

    The Trade Adjustment Assistance Reform Act of 2002 (Division A of 
Public Law 107-210) was signed into law on August 6, 2002. This Act 
amended the Trade Act of 1974 to consolidate the previous Trade 
Adjustment Assistance (TAA) and NAFTA Transitional Adjustment Assistance 
(NAFTA-TAA) programs into a single, enhanced TAA program with expanded 
eligibility, services, and benefits, which includes adjustment 
assistance, including cash weekly benefits, training, job search and 
relocation allowances. Additionally, the act provides for a program of 
Alternative Trade Adjustment Assistance for older workers. The 
amendments generally apply only to those workers covered by a petition 
for certification filed on or after November 4, 2002. Sections 123(c) 
and 151(b) and (c) of the Trade Adjustment Assistance Reform Act provide 
that workers certified under a petition filed before November 4 will 
continue to be eligible for services and benefits in accordance with the 
requirements that were applicable to the previous TAA and NAFTA-TAA 
programs, until such time as their eligibility under those requirements 
is exhausted. Therefore, the amounts appropriated to the Federal 
Unemployment Benefits and Allowances (FUBA) account are to provide for 
services and benefits to workers certified under the amended program, as 
well as the predecessor programs.

    Unemployment compensation.--State administration amounts provide 
administrative grants to State agencies which pay unemployment 
compensation to eligible workers and collect State unemployment taxes 
from employers. These agencies also pay unemployment benefits to former 
Federal personnel as well as trade adjustment assistance to eligible 
individuals. State administration amounts also provide administrative 
grants to State agencies to improve the integrity and financial 
stability of the unemployment compensation program through a 
comprehensive program, UI Performs. The purpose is to effect continuous 
improvement in State performance and related activities designed to 
assess and reduce errors and prevent fraud, waste, and abuse in the 
payment of unemployment compensation benefits and the collection of 
unemployment taxes. National activities relating to the Federal-State 
unemployment insurance programs are conducted through contracts or 
agreements with the State agencies or with non-state entities. A 
workload reserve is included in State administration to meet increases 
in the costs of administration resulting from changes in State law, or 
increases in the number of claims filed and claims paid. The 
appropriation automatically provides additional funds whenever 
unemployment increases above budgeted levels.

    Employment service.--The public employment service is a nationwide 
system providing no-fee employment services to individuals who are 
seeking employment and employers who are seeking workers. State 
employment service activities are financed by allotments to States 
distributed under a demographically based funding formula established 
under the Wagner-Peyser Act, as amended. Employment service allotments 
are funded on a program year basis running from July 1 through June 30 
of the following year.

    Employment service activities serving national needs, which includes 
certification of aliens for employment-based visas, are conducted 
through specific reimbursable agreements between the States and the 
Federal Government under the Wagner-Peyser Act, as amended and other 
legislation. Funding is also provided for amortization payments for 
States which had independent retirement plans prior to 1980 in their 
State employment service agencies.

    One-stop career centers.--These funds will be used to support the 
joint Federal-State efforts to improve the comprehensive One-Stop system 
created under the Workforce Investment Act (WIA). This system provides 
workers and employers with quick and easy access to a wide array of 
enhanced career development and labor market information services. In 
this activity, funds will be used to implement the emerging e-government 
strategy for the WIA workforce system, which will improve accessibility, 
update the one-stop technology infrastructure, and improve the 
efficiency of the labor exchange and other services.

    Work incentive grants.--These funds provide competitive grants to 
improve access to and coordination of information, benefits, and 
services to enable individuals with disabilities to return to work.

    Legislation will be proposed for 2005 to amend the Wagner-Peyser Act 
and the Workforce Investment Act to consolidate the Employment Service 
State Grants with the Adult and Dislocated Worker programs into a single 
block grant to increase state flexibility, facilitate coordination, and 
eliminate duplication in the provision of employment services to adults.

    In addition, the Administration will propose legislation to 
establish a new fee for applications under the permanent labor 
certification program. Fee proceeds would offset the costs of 
administering the permanent program and partially support backlog 
reduction in regional offices.

    This account was initiated as a result of the amendments to the 
Emergency Unemployment Compensation law (P.L. 102-164, as amended) which 
currently provides for general fund financing for administrative costs 
related to extended benefits under the optional, total unemployment rate 
trigger. This account is also used to make reimbursements for a portion 
of benefits paid under the Temporary Extended Unemployment Compensation 
Act of 2002 (P.L. 107-147 as amended). These funds are transferred to a 
receipt account in the Unemployment Trust Fund (UTF) so that resources 
may be transferred to the Employment Security Administration Account in 
the UTF for administrative costs or to the Extended Unemployment 
Compensation Account for benefit costs.

    This account provides repayable advances to the Black Lung 
Disability Trust Fund for making payments from that fund whenever its 
balances prove insufficient. The funding requested in this appropriation 
for 2005 is entirely for Black Lung. This spending authority is 
presented as authority to borrow in the Black Lung Disability Trust 
Fund.

    This account may also provide advances to several other accounts to 
pay unemployment compensation to eligible individuals under various 
Federal and State unemployment compensation laws whenever the balances 
in the funds prove insufficient or whenever reimbursements to certain 
accounts, as allowed by law, are to be made. Advances made to the 
Federal employees compensation account in the Unemployment Trust Fund 
and to the Federal unemployment benefits and allowances account are 
nonrepayable. All other advances made to the Federal unemployment 
account and to the Extended unemployment compensation account (both in 
the Unemployment Trust Fund) are repaid, with interest, to the general 
fund of the Treasury.

    The Black Lung Disability Trust Fund (BLDTF) revenues, which consist 
primarily of excise taxes on coal, are not sufficient to repay its $9 
billion debt to the Treasury or to service the interest on that debt. 
See discussion in the Black Lung Disability Trust Fund for a full 
description of the Administration's proposal to remedy this problem. As 
a part of this proposal, the Administration will propose legislation 
that will provide for a one-time appropriation to permit the BLDTF to 
compensate the General Fund for lost interest income.

    The financial transactions of the Federal-State and railroad 
unemployment insurance systems are made through the Unemployment Trust 
Fund. All State and Federal unemployment tax receipts are deposited in 
the trust fund and invested in Government securities until needed for 
benefit payments or administrative costs. States may receive repayable 
advances from the fund when their balances in the fund are insufficient 
to pay benefits. The fund may receive repayable advances from the 
general fund when it has insufficient balances to make advances to 
States or to pay the Federal share of extended benefits.

[[Page 714]]

    State payroll taxes pay for all regular State benefits. During 
periods of high State unemployment, extended benefits, financed one-half 
by State payroll taxes and one-half by the Federal unemployment payroll 
tax, are also paid. The Federal tax pays the costs of Federal and State 
administration of unemployment insurance and veterans employment 
services and 97% of the costs of the employment service. The Federal tax 
also pays for benefits under the Temporary Extended Unemployment 
Compensation program.

    The Federal employees compensation account provides funds to States 
for unemployment compensation benefits paid to eligible former Federal 
civilian personnel, Postal Service employees, and ex-servicemembers. 
Benefits paid are reimbursed to the Federal employees compensation 
account by the various Federal agencies. Any additional resources 
necessary to assure that the account can make the required payments to 
States will be provided from the Advances to the Unemployment Trust Fund 
and other funds account.

    Both the benefit payments and administrative expenses of the 
separate unemployment insurance program for railroad employees are paid 
from the Unemployment Trust Fund and receipts from the tax on railroad 
payrolls are deposited in the fund to meet expenses.

    Legislation will be proposed for 2005 to amend the Wagner-Peyser Act 
and the Workforce Investment Act to consolidate the Employment Service 
State Grants with the Adult and Dislocated Worker programs into a single 
block grant to increase state flexibility, facilitate coordination, and 
eliminate duplication in the provision of employment services to adults.

    In addition, the Administration will propose legislation to 
establish a new fee for applications under the permanent labor 
certification program. Fee proceeds would offset the costs of 
administering the permanent program and partially support backlog 
reduction in regional offices.

    Legislation will be proposed for 2005 to strengthen the financial 
integrity of the unemployment insurance (UI) system by reducing tax 
avoidance and improper benefit payments. The Administration's proposal 
will curtail tax avoidance by certain unscrupulous employers by 
deterring schemes to manipulate unemployment tax rates through such 
means as transfers of businesses to shell companies. The proposal will 
also reduce UI benefit overpayments through quick detection of 
individuals who illegally collect unemployment benefits after returning 
to work and will improve collection of delinquent benefit overpayments. 
These efforts to strengthen the financial integrity of the UI system 
will help keep State UI taxes down and improve the solvency of State 
trust funds.

    This wholly owned government corporation administers mandatory 
insurance programs to prevent loss of pension benefits under covered 
private, defined-benefit pension plans if single-employer plans 
terminate or if multiemployer plans are unable to pay benefits.

    Single employer benefit payment.--The single-employer program 
protects about 34 million participants in about 29,500 pension plans. 
Under this program, a company may voluntarily seek to terminate its 
plan, or PBGC may seek termination under certain circumstances. The PBGC 
must seek termination when a plan cannot pay current benefits.

    In a ``standard'' termination, plan assets must be sufficient to pay 
all benefits before the plan is allowed to end. That payment is in the 
form of an annuity purchased from an insurance company or a lump sum 
payment. After the payment is made, the PBGC guarantee ends. A plan that 
cannot pay all benefits may be ended by a ``distress'' termination, but 
only if the employer meets tests proving severe financial distress, for 
example, the likelihood that continuing the plan would force the company 
to shut down. If the terminated plan cannot pay at least the PBGC-
guaranteed benefits, the PBGC uses its funds to ensure guaranteed 
benefits are paid.

Government trusteeships at end of

Participants in government 
trusteeships owed benefits..........     834,000     934,000   1,034,000
Retirees receiving monthly benefits.     459,190     510,000     560,000

    Multi-employer financial assistance.--The multiemployer insurance 
program protects about 9.7 million participants in about 1,600 plans. 
Multiemployer pension plans are maintained under collectively bargained 
agreements involving unrelated employers, generally in the same 
industry. If a PBGC-insured multiemployer plan is unable to pay 
guaranteed benefits when due, the PBGC will provide the plan with 
financial assistance to continue paying guaranteed benefits, ordinarily 
in the form of a loan to the plan. Thirty plans are expected to receive 
assistance in 2005.

    Pension insurance activities.--Includes pension plan premium 
collections, premium investments, technical assistance, and new pension 
plan promotion activities.

    Pension plan termination.--Includes all activities related to plan 
termination and trusteeship; plan asset management, investment and 
accounting; and benefit administration services.

    Operational support.--Includes the administrative, information 
technology infrastructure, and other shared program support for both 
PBGC's insurance and plan termination activities.

Average time to replace initial with 
final benefit levels................     2.2 yrs     2.5 yrs     2.5 yrs

    Financing.--The primary source of financing is annual premiums paid 
by sponsors of ongoing covered plans, which vary according to the plans' 
funding level. Other sources of financing include assets from terminated 
plans, investment income, and amounts due PBGC from the sponsors of 
terminating plans. Also, PBGC is authorized to borrow up to $100 million 
from the U.S. Treasury.

    Operating results.--The following tables show the status of PBGC's 
trust funds and PBGC's operating results.

    Legislation will be proposed for 2005 which affects 2006 and beyond, 
to amend the Employee Retirement Income Security Act and the Income Tax 
Code. The amendments help avoid retirees' benefit reductions and help 
stabilize the defined-benefit pension system. They:

     Give employers two years of relief from current pension 
plan contribution requirements--now tied to 30-year Treasury bond 
interest rates--and base requirements on more appropriate corporate bond 
rates.

     After the two-year transition period, base pension funding 
requirements on a ``yield curve'' (commonly used in corporate finance), 
which would better tie funding requirements to the timing of the payout 
of retiree benefits.

     Make additional changes to restrict promises of added 
benefits by severely underfunded plans and to provide better information 
on pension finances to workers, retirees, and stockholders.

    Additionally, the Administration is developing a plan for 
comprehensive reform of the pension funding rules to: strengthen funding 
for workers' defined-benefit pensions; simplify funding rules; offer 
sponsors new, flexible, approaches to finance their plans without the 
current yearly volatility; and make additional reforms to ensure PBGC's 
continued ability to safeguard pension benefits.

    Enforcement of wage and hour standards.--The Wage and Hour Division 
works to obtain and encourage compliance with the minimum wage, 
overtime, child labor, and other employment standards under the Fair 
Labor Standards Act, the Migrant and Seasonal Agricultural Worker 
Protection Act (MSPA), the Family and Medical Leave Act, certain 
provisions of the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA), the wage 
garnishment provisions in Title III of the Consumer Credit Protection 
Act, and the Employee Polygraph Protection Act. Prevailing wages are 
determined and employment standards enforced under various Government 
contract wage standards. In 2005, approximately 270,000 persons are 
expected to be aided under the Fair Labor Standards Act through securing 
agreements with firms to pay back wages owed to their workers. In 
government contract compliance actions, about 23,500 persons will be 
aided through securing agreements to pay wages owed to workers. Under 
MSPA, approximately 2,000 investigations and 900 housing inspections 
will be completed. In the course of all on-site investigations, 
investigators will routinely check for employer compliance with child 
labor standards and, in all ``directed'' (non-complaint) investigations, 
for compliance with the employment eligibility verification 
recordkeeping requirements of the INA. The budget maintains resources 
for the Wage and Hour Division which are assigned to areas where 
employment of illegal immigrants is most prevalent. The targeting of 
labor standards enforcement efforts in those industries and geographic 
areas where unauthorized workers are most prevalent will help to reduce 
the economic incentive for such illegal employment practices and will, 
in turn, help reduce illegal immigration.

    Federal contractor Equal Employment Opportunity (EEO) standards 
enforcement.--The Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) 
enforces equal employment opportunity and nondiscrimination requirements 
of Federal contractors and subcontractors. In particular, OFCCP 
enforces: Executive Order 11246, which prohibits employment 
discrimination on the basis of race, sex, religion, color, and national 
origin; Section 503 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 and the Americans 
with Disabilities Act of 1990 (through a memorandum of understanding 
with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission), which prohibit 
employment discrimination against individuals with disabilities; and the 
Vietnam Era Veterans Readjustment Assistance Act of 1974, as amended, 
which prohibits employment discrimination against certain protected 
veterans. OFCCP programs cover close to 200,000 work-sites with a total 
workforce of 26 million persons.

    OFCCP monitors contractors' compliance through systemic 
discrimination cases, and reporting requirements. In 2005, approximately 
2,450,000 individuals will be covered through 7,700 compliance 
evaluations, 280 complaint investigations, and 2,050 other compliance 
actions.

    OFCCP also encourages and supports voluntary compliance by providing 
compliance assistance to covered contractors. In 2005, over 600 
compliance assistance events will be provided to federal contractors and 
other stakeholders. For example, as part of its compliance assistance 
program, OFCCP provides technical assistance to contractors through 
Industry Liaison Groups. In addition, OFCCP has placed important 
compliance assistance information on the Internet. OFCCP also ensures 
that Federal contractors and subcontractors are provided linkages to 
recruitment sources for hiring and advancement of minorities, women, 
protected veterans and individuals with disabilities. OFCCP honors 
Federal contractors and linkage organizations through the Secretary of 
Labor Opportunity

[[Page 719]]

Awards and the EVE/EPIC program for their outstanding compliance 
initiatives.

    Federal programs for workers' compensation.--The Office of Workers' 
Compensation Programs (OWCP) administers the Federal Employees' 
Compensation Act, the Longshore and Harbor Workers' Compensation Act, 
the Energy Employees Occupational Illness Compensation Program Act, and 
the Black Lung Benefits Act. These programs ensure that eligible 
disabled and injured workers or their survivors receive compensation and 
medical benefits and a range of services including rehabilitation, 
supervision of medical care, and technical and advisory counseling to 
which they are entitled. OWCP also monitors State workers' compensation 
laws.

    Program direction and support.--The Program Direction and Support 
(PDS) activity provides centralized leadership, policy, coordination and 
essential administrative support in the areas of human resources, 
information technology; budget and financial management; strategic 
planning; performance reporting; legislative and regulatory analysis; 
employee safety and health; labor relations; equal employment 
opportunity enforcement, and general support services to all ESA program 
components. PDS performs an essential role in the Employment Standards 
Administration's pursuit of its mission to support, protect and defend 
the rights of American workers, by providing the necessary policy, 
planning, guidance, and management to effectively implement policies and 
priorities.

    Labor-management standards.--The Office of Labor-Management 
Standards (OLMS) receives and discloses statutorily required reports 
required of unions and others, including union financial reports; audits 
union financial records and investigates possible embezzlements of union 
funds; conducts union officer election investigations; supervises reruns 
of union officer elections pursuant to voluntary settlements or after 
court determinations that elections were not conducted in accordance 
with the Labor-Management Reporting and Disclosure Act; and administers 
the statutory program to certify employee protection provisions under 
various federally-sponsored transportation programs. In 2005, OLMS plans 
enhanced efforts to advance union transparency and financial integrity 
protections, primarily through increased union audits and compliance 
assistance efforts. OLMS expects to process 36,000 reports and conduct a 
total of 4,582 investigations, audits, and supervised elections.

    Federal Employees' Compensation Act benefits.--The Federal 
Employees' Compensation Act program provides monetary and medical 
benefits to Federal workers who sustain work-related injury or disease. 
Not all benefits are paid by the program, since the first 45 days of 
disability are usually covered by keeping injured workers in pay status 
with their employing agencies (the continuation-of-pay period). In 2005, 
170,000 injured federal workers or their survivors will file claims; 
57,000 will receive long-term wage replacement benefits for job-related 
injuries, diseases, or deaths. Most of the costs of this account are 
charged back to the beneficiaries' employing agencies.

    Longshore and harbor workers' compensation benefits.--Under the 
Longshore and Harbor Workers' Compensation Act, as amended, the Federal 
Government pays from direct appropriations one-half of the increased 
benefits provided by the amendments for persons on the rolls prior to 
1972. The remainder is provided from the special fund which is financed 
by private employers assessed at the beginning of each calendar year for 
their proportionate share of these payments.

    The Administration will propose legislation to strengthen program 
integrity and make the Act more equitable and easier to administer by: 
1) converting compensation for new injuries or new claims for disability 
to a lower retirement-level benefit at the Social Security retirement 
age; 2) moving the 3-day waiting period, during which an injured worker 
is not entitled to compensation, to the point immediately after an 
injury; 3) changing the way schedule awards are paid to allow uniform 
lump-sum payments to federal employees eligible for such awards; 4) 
replacing augmented compensation for dependents with a slightly higher 
basic benefit level for all claimants; 5) allowing OWCP to recover the 
costs of continuation of pay (COP), a large annual expenditure for 
federal agencies, from responsible third parties; and 6) updating ben

efit levels for funeral expenses and disfigurement resulting from work

    Energy Employees' Compensation Act benefits.--The Department of 
Labor is delegated responsibility to adjudicate and administer claims 
for benefits under the Energy Employees Occupational Illness 
Compensation Program Act of 2000. In July 2001, the program began 
accepting claims from employees or survivors of employees of the 
Department of Energy (DOE) and of private companies under contract with 
DOE who suffer from a radiation-related cancer, beryllium-related 
disease, or chronic silicosis as a result of their work in producing or 
testing nuclear weapons. The Act authorizes a lump-sum payment of 
$150,000 and reimbursement of medical expenses.

    Energy Employees Occupational Illness Compensation Program Act of 
2000 (EEOICPA) administration.--Under Executive Order 13179 the 
Secretary of Labor is assigned primary responsibility for administering 
the Energy Employees Compensation program, while other responsibilities 
have been delegated to the Departments of Health and Human Services 
(HHS), Energy (DOE), and Justice (DOJ). The Office of Workers' 
Compensation Programs (OWCP) in the Department of Labor is responsible 
for claims adjudication, and award and payment of compensation and 
medical benefits. The Office of the Solicitor provides legal support and 
represents the Department in claimant appeals of OWCP decisions. HHS is 
responsible for developing individual dose reconstructions to estimate 
occupational radiation exposure, and developing regulations to guide 
DOL's determination of whether an individual's cancer was caused by 
radiation exposure at a DOE or atomic weapons facility. DOE is 
responsible for providing exposure histories at employment facilities 
covered under the Act, as well as other employment information. DOJ 
assists claimants who have been awarded compensation under the Radiation 
Exposure Compensation Act to file for additional compensation, including 
medical benefits, under EEOICPA.

    Title IV of the Federal Mine Safety and Health Act authorizes 
monthly benefits to coal miners disabled from coal workers' 
pneumoconiosis (black lung) and to their widows and certain other 
dependents. Part B of the Act assigned the processing and paying of 
claims filed between December 30, 1969 (when the program originated) and 
June 30, 1973 to the Social Security Administration (SSA). P.L. 107-275 
transferred Part B claims processing and payment operations from SSA to 
the Department of Labor's (DOL) Employment Standards Administration 
(ESA), Office of Workers' Compensation Programs. This change was 
implemented on October 1, 2003.

    The trust fund consists of all moneys collected from the coal mine 
industry under the provisions of the Black Lung Benefits Revenue Act of 
1981, as amended by the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act 
of 1985, in the form of an excise tax on mined coal. These moneys are 
expended to pay compensation, medical, and survivor benefits to eligible 
miners and their survivors, where mine employment terminated prior to 
1970 or where no mine operator can be assigned liability. In addition, 
the fund pays all administrative costs incurred in the operation of part 
C of the Black Lung program. The fund is administered jointly by the 
Secretaries of Labor, the Treasury, and Health and Human Services. The 
Benefits Revenue Act provides for repayable advances to the fund in the 
event fund resources will not be adequate to meet program obligations. 
Such advances are to be repaid with interest. The outstanding debt at 
the end of each year was: 1981, $1,510 million; 1982, $1,793 million; 
1983, $2,151 million; 1984, $2,497 million; 1985, $2,833 million; 1986, 
$2,884 million; 1987, $2,952 million; 1988, $2,993 million; 1989, $3,049 
million; 1990, $3,049 million; 1991, $3,266 million; 1992, $3,606 
million; 1993, $3,949 million; 1994, $4,363 million; 1995, $4,738 
million; 1996, $5,112 million; 1997, $5,487 million; 1998, $5,857 
million; 1999, $6,259 million; and 2000, $6,749 million; 2001, $7,254 
million; 2002, $7,719 million and 2003, $8,244 million. It is estimated 
to be $8,686 million in 2004 and $9,203 million in 2005 if the 
refinancing proposal is not enacted.

    The Black Lung Disability Trust Fund (BLDTF) revenues, which consist 
primarily of excise taxes on coal, are not sufficient to repay the over 
$8 billion debt it owes to the Treasury or to service the interest on 
that debt. Under current conditions, this indebtedness will continue to 
grow, with the BLDTF never becoming solvent, even when benefit outlays 
have declined to a level approaching zero. To solve this problem, the 
Administration will propose legislation that will: (1) authorize a 
refinancing (debt restructuring) of the outstanding BLDTF debt, (2) 
extend at current rates BLDTF excise tax levels (set to expire in 
January 2014) until solvency is attained, and (3) provide for a one-time 
appropriation to compensate the General Fund for the lost interest 
income.

    The trust funds consist of amounts received from employers for the 
death of an employee where no person is entitled to compensation for 
such death, for fines and penalty payments, and pursuant to an annual 
assessment of the industry, for the general expenses of the fund under 
the Longshore and Harbor Workers' Compensation Act, as amended.

    These trust funds are available for payments of additional 
compensation for second injuries. When a second injury is combined with 
a previous disability and results in increased permanent partial 
disability, permanent total disability, or death, the employer's 
liability for benefits is limited to a specified period of compensation 
payments after which the

[[Page 725]]

fund provides continuing compensation benefits. In addition, the fund 
pays one-half of the increased benefits provided under the Longshore and 
Harbor Workers' Compensation Act, as amended, for persons on the rolls 
prior to 1972. Maintenance payments are made to disabled employees 
undergoing vocational rehabilitation to enable them to return to 
remunerative occupations, and the costs of necessary rehabilitation 
services not otherwise available to disabled workers are defrayed. 
Payments are made in cases where other circumstances preclude payment by 
an employer and to provide medical, surgical, and other treatment in 
disability cases where there has been a default by the insolvency of an 
uninsured employer.

    Safety and health standards.--This activity provides for the 
development, promulgation, review and evaluation of feasible 
occupational safety and health standards and guidance. Before any 
standard is proposed or promulgated, a determination is made that: (1) a 
significant risk of serious injury or health impairment exists; (2) the 
standard will reduce this risk; (3) the standard is economically and 
technologically feasible; and (4) the standard is economically and 
technologically feasible when compared with alternative regulatory 
proposals providing equal levels of protection. Regulatory reform 
efforts include consensus-based rulemaking, development of common sense 
regulations, rewriting existing standards so they are understandable to 
those affected by them, and regulatory and non-regulatory process 
improvements.

    Enforcement.--This activity provides for the enforcement of 
workplace standards promulgated under the Occupational Safety and Health 
(OSH) Act of 1970 through the physical inspection of worksites, and by 
fostering the voluntary cooperation of employers and employees. Programs 
are targeted to the investigation of claims of imminent danger and 
employee complaints, investigation of fatal and catastrophic accidents, 
programmed inspections of firms with injury-illness rates that are above 
the national average, and special emphasis inspections for serious 
safety and health hazards. OSHA's enforcement strategy includes a 
selective targeting of inspections and related compliance activities to 
specific high hazard industries and worksites.

    State programs.--This activity assists states in assuming 
responsibility for administering occupational safety and health programs 
under State plans approved by the Secretary. Under section 23 of the 
OSHA Act, matching grants of up to fifty percent of total program costs 
are made to States that meet the Act's criteria for establishing and 
implementing State programs which are at least as effective as the 
Federal program. State programs, like their Federal counterpart, provide 
a mix of enforcement, outreach, training and compliance assistance 
activities.

    Technical support.--This activity provides specialized technical 
expertise and advice in support of a wide range of program areas, 
including construction, standards setting, variance determinations, 
compliance assistance, and enforcement. Areas of expertise include 
laboratory accreditation, industrial hygiene, occupational health 
nursing, occupational medicine, chemical analysis, equipment 
calibration, safety engineering environmental impact statements, 
technical and scientific databases, computer-based outreach products, 
and emergency preparedness.

    Compliance assistance--Federal.--This activity supports a range of 
cooperative programs, training, and outreach that provide compliance 
assistance in improving workplace safety and health, with particular 
emphasis on small business. OSHA works with employers and employees 
through Voluntary Protection Programs recognizing and promoting 
effective safety and health management; partnerships focusing on the 
development of extended cooperative relationships; and alliances 
committing organizations to collaborative efforts with OSHA. Federal 
agencies are assisted in implementing and improving their job safety and 
health programs. Occupational safety and health training is provided at 
the OSHA Training Institute and associated Education Centers throughout 
the country. Compliance and technical assistance materials are prepared 
and disseminated to the public through various means, including the 
Internet.

    State consultation grants.--This activity supports 90 percent 
Federally-funded cooperative agreements with designated State agencies 
to provide free on-site consultation to employers upon request. State 
agencies tailor workplans to specific needs in each State while 
maximizing their impact on injury and illness rates in smaller 
establishments. These projects offer a variety of services, including 
safety and health program assessment and assistance, hazard 
identification and control, and training of employers and their 
employees.

    Training grants.--This activity supports safety and health training 
grants to organizations that provide training and education and develop 
educational materials for employers and employees. Grants address safety 
and health education needs related to specific topics and industries 
identified by the agency.

    Safety and health statistics.--This activity supports the 
information technology infrastructure, management information, and 
statistical basis for OSHA's programs and field operations. These are 
provided through an integrated data network, and statistical analysis 
and review. OSHA administers and maintains the recordkeeping system that 
serves as the foundation for the BLS survey on occupational injuries and 
illnesses and provides guidance on recordkeeping requirements to both 
the public and private sectors.

    Executive direction and administration.--This activity supports 
executive direction, planning and evaluation, management support, 
legislative liaison, interagency affairs, federal agency liaison, 
administrative services, and budgeting and financial control.

    Note: The Program Evaluation and Information Resources (PEIR) 
activity, added in the FY 2004 Budget, consists of funds formerly spread 
among other MSHA activities. Comparative funding for PEIR is as follows: 
in fiscal year 2002, $14 million; and in fiscal year 2003, $17 million.

    Enforcement.--The Enforcement strategy in 2005 will be an integrated 
approach that links all actions to preventing occupational injuries and 
illness. These include inspection of mines as mandated by the Federal 
Mine Safety and Health Act of 1977, special emphasis initiatives that 
focus on persistent safety and health hazards, promulgation of safety 
and health standards, investigation of serious accidents, and on-site 
education and training. The desired outcome of these enforcement efforts 
is to lower fatality and injury rates.

    Assessments.--This activity assesses and collects civil monetary 
penalties for violations of safety and health standards.

    Educational policy and development.--This activity develops and 
coordinates MSHA's mine safety and health education and training 
policies, and provides classroom instruction at the National Academy for 
MSHA personnel, other governmental personnel, and the mining industry. 
States provide mine health and safety training materials, and provide 
technical assistance through the State Grants program.

    Technical support.--This activity applies engineering and scientific 
expertise through field and laboratory forensic investigations to 
resolve technical problems associated with imple- mentation of the Mine 
Act. Technical support administers a fee program to approve equipment, 
materials, and explosives for use in mines and performs field and 
laboratory audits of equipment previously approved by MSHA. It also 
collects and analyzes data relative to the cause, frequency, and 
circumstances of accidents.

    Program evaluation and information resources (PEIR).--This activity 
provides program evaluation and information

[[Page 728]]

technology resource management services for the agency. Additionally, 
PEIR is responsible for meeting the requirements of the Government 
Performance and Results Act (GPRA) and developing MSHA's performance 
plan and Annual Performance Report.

    Program administration.--This activity performs general 
administrative functions.

    Office of Disability Employment Policy.--This office provides 
leadership to eliminate employment barriers to people with disabilities. 
It works within DOL and in collaboration with other Federal agencies to 
develop and implement research and pilot projects that examine specific 
areas of policy inquiry in employment, training, retraining, retention, 
and employment support services. ODEP derives effective evidence-based 
strategies from these activities, which are disseminated to other 
agencies that facilitate their implementation. Research and development 
activities inform future policy development direction and the office's 
continual building of effective strategies to increase the workforce 
participation by people with disabilities.

    The Office of Disability Employment Policy brings a heightened and 
permanent long-term focus on increasing employment of persons with 
disabilities. The office achieves this goal using policy analysis, 
development, technical assistance, dissemination of effective practices, 
and employer outreach. Funding is used to develop, identify, test, 
evaluate and disseminate policies and strategies designed to increase 
the number of youth and adults with disabilities who enter, re-enter, 
remain, and are promoted in the workforce.

    State administration.--The Disabled Veterans' Outreach Program 
specialists provide outreach services and intensive employment services 
to meet the employment and training needs of eligible veterans. Priority 
of service is given to special disabled veterans, disabled veterans, and 
other eligible veterans. In providing these services, the maximum 
emphasis is on meeting the employment needs of economically or 
educationally disadvantaged veterans. Local Veterans' Employment 
Representatives conduct outreach to area employers to develop employment 
opportunities for veterans. They also facilitate employment, training, 
and placement services to veterans. In addition, each Local Veterans' 
Employment Representative is administratively responsible to the manager 
of the employment service delivery system to provide quarterly reports 
to the manager of such office and to the Director of Veterans' 
Employment and Training regarding compliance with Federal law and 
regulations with respect to special services and priorities for eligible 
veterans and eligible persons.

    Administration.--Identifies policies and programs to serve and meet 
employment and training needs of veterans. Monitors the States' 
provision of priority of service to veterans.

[[Page 733]]

 Evaluates job training and employment assistance services to veterans 
and provides technical assistance to States to ensure they meet 
negotiated performance goals. Works with States to provide incentive 
awards for outstanding performance. Coordinates a Transition Assistance 
Program with the Departments of Defense, Veterans Affairs and Homeland 
Security. That program is carried out worldwide and ensures the 
provision of labor-market and employment-related information and other 
services to military service members separating from active duty to 
expedite and facilitate their transition from military to civilian 
employment. Administers programs designed to help homeless veterans 
become gainfully employed and to help veterans with service-connected 
disabilities and others with significant employment barriers obtain 
training and employment assistance. Administers a national program 
designed to raise awareness among employers on the benefits of hiring 
veterans. Provides information and investigates complaints to help 
veterans, reservists and members of the National Guard obtain employment 
and reemployment rights, including helping veterans obtain veterans' 
preference in Federal employment.

    National Veterans Employment and Training Services Institute.--
Ensures universality of service by providing competency-based training 
on the core programs of the agency to Federal and State providers of 
services to veterans.

    Homeless veterans reintegration program.--Provides grants to States 
or other public entities and non-profits, including faith-based 
organizations, to operate employment programs to reach out to homeless 
veterans and help them become employed. Coordinates with the Departments 
of Veterans Affairs and Housing and Urban Development to promote multi-
agency-funded programs and integration of the different services needed 
by homeless veterans. Grants are provided for both urban and rural 
areas.

    Veterans workforce investment program.--Provides grants mostly to 
public entities for training, retraining and employment opportunities 
for veterans most at risk, including those with the service-connected 
disabilities, those with significant barriers to employment, and 
recently separated veterans. Provides grants to non-profit organizations 
to develop innovative approaches that can be used nationwide to enhance 
employment outcomes for eligible veterans.
