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 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. Beginning in 2006, NNSA will assume the management of newly
generated waste at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory and the Y-12
National Security Complex.

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.

Nuclear Weapons Incident Response.--Manages strategically placed
people and equipment to provide a technically trained response to any
nuclear or radiological emergency worldwide.

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

Environmental projects and operations program.--The 2006 Budget for
this program reflects the transfer of the management of environmental
restoration, legacy waste disposition, and decontamination and
decommissioning activities at the NNSA sites of Kansas City Plant,
Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, Nevada Test Sites, Sandia
National Laboratories, Pantex Plant, and Separations Process Research
Unit; from the Environmental Management program to the National Nuclear
Security Administration beginning in 2006.

Safeguards and security.--Provides for all safeguard and security
requirements including protective forces, systems and cyber security
(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 National Security Complex, 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) advance the technologies to detect the proliferation of
weapons of mass destruction worldwide; (3) and eliminate or secure
inventories of surplus materials and infrastructure 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 2006, work will be done in the following major
areas.

Nonproliferation and verification research and development will
conduct 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 interfaces directly with
operational agencies to provide innovative systems and technologies to
meet their nonproliferation, counter-proliferation and counter-terrorism
responsibilities.

Nonproliferation and international security efforts will control
export of items and technology useful for weapons of mass destruction
(WMD); augment export control cooperation to include emerging suppliers
and high-traffic transit states; break up existing and preventing future
proliferation networks; develop verification technologies for countries
of proliferation concern; implement international safeguards in
conjunction with the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA); develop
and implement policy in support of global nonproliferation regime;
develop and implement transparency measures and monitoring visits for
treaties and agreements to ensure compliance, and nuclear materials are
secure; develop capabilities and administer programs to implement the
U.S. highly enriched uranium (HEU) minimization policy; develop and
implement innovative approaches to improve regional security, and
conduct international emergency management and cooperation activities.

International nuclear materials protection and cooperation will
continue to improve the security of nuclear material and nuclear
warheads in Russia and other counties of proliferation concern by
installing basic rapid upgrades and thorough comprehensive upgrades.
Reducing the potential for diversion of nuclear warheads and nuclear
materials has been a critical priority for the United States. Russia and
the United States have expanded cooperation in this area significantly
to include Strategic Rocket Forces sites containing nuclear warheads.
The United States, through DOE/NNSA's Second Line of Defense Program,
will continue to work with international partners to enhance their
capabilities to detect, deter, and interdict illicit trafficking in
nuclear and other radioactive materials, including the screening of
containerized cargo at strategic international seaports.

Global initiatives for proliferation prevention (GIPP) 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.
Engaging foreign weapons scientists is a top U.S. nonproliferation
priority. The dismantlement of Iraq and Libya's WMD programs compound
the threat of scientists migration and proliferation of WMD skills and
expertise. The competition for individuals capable of developing and
producing WMD has intensified as the number of rogue states and
terrorists organizations vying for WMD expertise has multiplied. GIPP,
while retaining Russia/FSU as its primary focus, must broaden its focus
to states outside of the FSU in 2006.

HEU transparency implementation will continue to work with Russia to
provide confidence to the U.S. that the Russian highly enriched uranium
(HEU) being down blended 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 U.S.,
remains an extremely impressive nonproliferation achievement.

Elimination of weapons-grade plutonium production enhances nuclear
nonproliferation by assisting the Russian Federation in ceasing its
production of weapons-grade plutonium production by providing
replacement power production capacity. This will result in the shutdown
of the world's last three plutonium producing reactors, and eliminate
the production of 1.2 metric tons of plutonium per year. The 2005
funding will enable NNSA to maintain a schedule that allows completion
of the Seversk project in 2008.

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 2006, it will continue down blending surplus U.S. HEU;
complete site preparation activities for the U.S. Pit Disassembly and
Conversion Facility; and continue construction of the U.S. and Russian
Mixed Oxide (MOX) Fuel Fabrication Facilities.

Global threat reduction initiative removes and/or secures high-risk
nuclear radiological materials and equipment around the world that pose
a threat to the U.S. and the international community; addresses all
vulnerable materials removal and radioactive source security and
recovery; targets research reactors and medical isotopes production
processes

[[Page 391]]

worldwide for conversion to suitable LEU fuels and targets; eliminates
stockpiles of Russian-origin and U.S.-origin spent nuclear fuel in
foreign research reactors through repatriation of such material to
Russia and the U.S.; prevents proliferation of nuclear weapons by
securing nearly three tons of weapons-grade plutonium in the BN-350
breeder reactor at Actual, Kazakhstan; purchases Russian HEU fuel for
use in U.S. research reactors; identifies, recovers, and stores, on an
interim-basis, certain domestic radioactive sealed sources, and other
radiological materials that pose a security risk to the U.S. and/or
world community; reduces the international threat posed by radiological
materials that could be used in a radiological dispersal device (RDD) or
``dirty bomb.''

The 2006 Budget for this appropriation reflects the transfer of a
number of environmental activities at sites managed by the National
Nuclear Security Administration (NNSA) from the Environmental Management
program to NNSA beginning in 2006. This includes legacy waste treatment,
storage and disposal; facility decontamination and decommissioning; and
environmental remediation at sites where NNSA will have continuing
operations (i.e., Kansas City Plant, Lawrence Livermore National
Laboratory, Sandia National Laboratory, Nevada Test Site, Pantex Plant,
and the Separations Process Research Unit).

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 nuclear fuel removal or 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. 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 nuclear fuel removal or 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.

Security and safety performance assurance.--The Security function is
part of the Office of Security and Safety Performance Assurance and
consists of the following programs: Nuclear Safeguards and Security,
Security Investigations and Program Direction. Key mission areas are:
physical, information and personnel security; technology evaluation;
materials control and accountability; executive protection police force;
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; and the Continuity of Operations and Continuity of
Government programs. 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. Security investigations provides funding for
background investigations for Federal and contractor personnel who
require security access authorizations. The independent oversight and
performance assurance function is also part of the Office of Security
and Safety Performance Assurance and provides independent assessment of
the effectiveness of Departmental policies and site performance in the
areas of safeguards and security; cyber security; emergency management;
environment, safety, and health; and other critical functions.
Appraisals are performed to determine whether site programs are
effectively implemented and achieving Department-wide and site-specific
objectives.

Energy security and assurance.--The conference report on the
``Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2005'' called for this program's
functions to be merged into the Office of Electricity

[[Page 394]]

Transmission and Distribution within the Energy Supply account.

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, and employee compensation support as well as
program direction.

Office of Legacy Management (Defense).--The programs within this
office support long-term stewardship activities at sites where active
remediation has been completed following cessation of Departmental
missions. These activities include ground-water monitoring,
administration of post closure contractor liabilities, records
management, and disposition of assets excess to current Department
needs.

All other.--Obligations are included for the Defense Related
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, and 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. The Office also decides all requests for exception
from DOE orders, rules and regulations.

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 2004, the balance
owed by the Federal Government to the Nuclear Waste Fund was
approximately $852 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 2004, a total of approximately $2,359
million has been appropriated to support nuclear waste repository
activities attributed to atomic energy defense activities.

High energy physics.--The High Energy Physics (HEP) research program
focuses on gaining insights into the fundamental constituents of matter,
the fundamental forces in nature, and the mysterious forms of unseen
energy and matter that dominate the universe. The program encompasses
both experimental and theoretical particle physics research and related
advanced accelerator and detector technology research and development
(R&D). The primary mode of experimental research involves the study of
collisions of energetic particles using large particle accelerators or
colliding beam facilities.

In addition to contributing to breakthrough discoveries such as the
existence of the invisible ``dark energy'' that permeates empty space,
state-of-the-art technology developed for accelerators and detectors
contributes to progress in fields such as fast electronics, high-speed
computing, superconducting magnet technology, and high-power radio
frequency devices. HEP 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 research using synchrotron light sources.

The HEP budget request will support the continued operation of two
of the Department's major HEP facilities: the Fermilab Tevatron and the
Stanford B-Factory; and commencement of operations of the Neutrinos at
the Main Injector (NuMI) facility of Fermilab, which will complete its
construction phase in 2005. In addition, $7.4 million is provided for
the Department's contribution to continued U.S. participation in the
Large Hadron Collider project at the European Center for Nuclear
Research.

Nuclear physics.--The goal of the nuclear physics program is to
understand the evolution and structure of nuclear matter, from the
smallest building blocks; quarks and gluons; to the stable elements in
the Universe created by stars; to unique isotopes created in the
laboratory that exist at the limits of stability and possess radically
different properties from known matter. The program aims to provide a
compelling story of how the world around us has evolved, and focuses on
such questions as--``What is the structure of the nucleon?''; ``What is
the structure of nucleonic matter?''; ``What are the properties of hot
nuclear matter?''; ``What is the nuclear microphysics of the
universe?''; and ``What is to be the new Standard Model?''

Fundamental research in nuclear physics will provide new insights
and advance our knowledge on the nature of matter and energy and develop
the scientific knowledge, technologies, and trained manpower that are
needed to underpin the Department of Energy's missions for nuclear-
related national security, energy, and environmental quality.

The Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider research program at Brookhaven
National Laboratory will continue with two of the four major detectors
pursuing the characterization of new states of matter formed at high
energies and densities.

The Thomas Jefferson National Accelerator Facility/Continuous
Electron Beam Accelerator Facility experimental program will continue
its studies focused on understanding the substructure of the nucleon.
Research and development aimed at doubling the available energy of this
facility continues. Operations of the Holifield Radioactive Ion Beam
Facility at Oak Ridge National Laboratory and the Argonne Tandem Linear
Accelerator System at Argonne National Laboratory will be supported for
the study of nuclear structure and nuclear astrophysics, as will the
operation of accelerator laboratories at universities.

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 activities include programs
in global climate change; environmental remediation; molecular,
cellular, and systemic studies on the biological effects of radiation;
structural biology; medical applications of nuclear technology; and the
Human Genome Program. 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 sci

[[Page 396]]

entific 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 Genomics:GTL activity, aimed at understanding the composition and
function of biochemical networks that carry out essential processes of
living organisms, is funded at $87.2 million. Medical applications
research is reduced.

Basic energy sciences.--The basic energy sciences (BES) program
funds basic research in the physical, biological, and engineering
sciences that supports the Department's nuclear and non-nuclear
technology programs. 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 request includes $32.5 million for hydrogen and
fuel cell research as part of the President's Hydrogen Initiative.

The BES program also operates large national user research
facilities, including synchrotron light and neutron sources, a
combustion research facility, and smaller user facilities such as
materials preparation and electron microscopy centers.

The BES budget request includes continued support to maintain
utilization of the Department's large state-of-the-art national user
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 $75.6 million to complete
construction of the Spallation Neutron Source (SNS) at Oak Ridge
National Laboratory to meet the Nation's neutron scattering needs. The
request includes $8.1 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. Reflecting the high priority given to
nanoscale research, BES funding for the multi-agency national
nanotechnology program is $204.3 million and includes funding for the
nanoscale science research centers (NSRCs) at the Lawrence Berkeley,
Brookhaven, and Sandia national laboratories. Equipment is funded for
the NSRC at Argonne National Laboratory, where the State of Illinois is
providing funding for the building. The request also includes $2.5
million for project engineering and design and $83 million for
construction of the Linac Coherent Light Source at the Stanford Linear
Accelerator Center.

Fusion energy sciences.--The fusion energy sciences program
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 $49.5 million for the U.S. contribution to the
International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor (ITER) program, a
burning plasma physics experiment that is an essential next step toward
eventually developing fusion as a commercially viable energy source.

The budget request also provides for support of basic research in
plasma science in partnership with NSF, and investigation of innovative
confinement concepts, along with continued operation of DIII-D and
Alcator C-Mod 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 in the long
run. Fabrication of the National Compact Stellarator experiment will
continue at Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory in collaboration with
Oak Ridge National Laboratory. Enabling technology research will also be
conducted in support of the science experiments.

Science laboratories infrastructure.--The goal of this 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.
The excess facilities disposition subprogram and the Oak Ridge Landlord
activity are also funded here.

Advanced scientific computing research.--This program includes
research in mathematical, information, and computational sciences. The
purpose of this 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 and network 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 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.

The purpose of Energy Supply Research and Development activities is
to develop new energy technologies and improve existing energy
technologies. Included in this mission are basic and applied research
and targeted programs in technology development that reflects both
public policy and market needs. These programs have significant
potential to contribute to economic growth, increased energy security,
and a cleaner environment.

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

The 2006 Budget continues the Hydrogen Fuel Initiative to accelerate
the worldwide availability and affordability of hydrogen-powered fuel
cell vehicles. The initiative is a partnership with energy companies
focused on research and development to advance hydrogen production,
storage, and infrastructure. It complements the FreedomCAR partnership
with the auto industry, which is aimed at developing viable hydrogen
fuel cell vehicle technology.

Energy efficiency and renewable energy.--This program undertakes
research and development of renewable energy and related technologies to
meet the growing need for clean and affordable energy. Program
activities range from basic research in universities and national
laboratories to cost-shared applied research, development, and field
validation in partnership with the private sector. Specific activities
of the 2006 program include:
Hydrogen technology: As a key component of the President's
Hydrogen Fuel Initiative, this program develops hydrogen production,
storage, and delivery technologies that are more energy efficient,
cleaner, safer, and lower in cost. The long-term aim is to develop
hydrogen technology that will allow the Nation to aggressively move
forward to achieve a vision of a cleaner, more secure energy future.
Current research on hydrogen production, storage, and delivery will
facilitate a decision by industry to commercialize a hydrogen
infrastructure for fuel cell vehicles by 2015.

[[Page 398]]

Solar energy: Develop lower cost, higher performance, more
reliable solar energy systems for the production of electricity and
hot water. Activities include more efficient crystalline silicon and
thin film photovoltaic (PV) modules and systems as part of an
industry-led research effort. Concentrating solar power activities
are focused on lowering the cost of centrally-produced electricity
from solar energy. Solar heating activities are focused on
cooperative industry efforts to develop advanced solar technology
for water heating.
Wind energy: Develop low wind-speed technology in partnership
with industry to allow wind power to be cost-competitive in more
prevalent, lower-wind speed resource areas, and support activities
to reduce electric grid integration and technology acceptance
barriers to wind energy use.
Geothermal technology: Continue development of enhanced
geothermal systems that will allow the broader use of geothermal
energy throughout the United States. Conduct cooperative research
with industry, universities, and other government agencies to reduce
the cost of geothermal development and to identify new resources.
Biomass and biorefinery systems: Conduct research, development,
and technology validation on advanced technologies that will enable
future biorefineries to sustainably convert cellulosic biomass to
fuels, chemicals, heat and power.
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. The Renewable Energy Production
Incentive provides financial incentive payments for State and local
governments and non-profit cooperatives generating electricity
through renewable technologies.
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.
Facilities and infrastructure.--The budget includes $10.5
million to complete construction of the Science and Technology
Facility (S&TF) at the National Renewable Energy Laboratory, in
addition to $5.8 million for general plant projects and general
purpose equipment. The S&TF will allow the photovoltaics, hydrogen,
and other programs to address complex materials problems common to
thin-film and nanostructure energy technologies, and will relieve
overcrowding in the current Solar Energy Research Facility.
Electric transmission and distribution.--The mission of the
Office of Electric Transmission and Distribution (OETD) is to lead a
national effort to modernize and expand America's electricity
delivery system to ensure a more reliable and robust electricity
supply, as well as economic and national security, and reduce the
likelihood and impact of reliability events, including blackouts.
This effort is accomplished through research, development,
demonstration, technology transfer, and education and outreach
activities in partnership with industries, businesses, utilities,
States, and other Federal programs and agencies, universities,
national laboratories, and other stakeholders.
Beginning in 2005, the functions of the Office of Energy
Assurance are being incorporated into OETD; thus, OETD's functions
are expanding to also support the Department of Energy's efforts to
protect the Nation against significant energy supply disruption.
America's energy supply is essential to a strong economy and
national security.

Nuclear energy.--The 2006 Budget continues to support the Nuclear
Power 2010 program which supports demonstration of key regulatory
approval processes in order to encourage the deployment of new, advanced
nuclear plants in the United States in the 2010 timeframe. The budget
continues to support the Generation IV Nuclear Energy Systems
Initiative, where the United States will participate in multi-nation
research and development projects in support of next-generation nuclear
reactors and fuel cycles. In collaboration with the Generation IV
Nuclear Energy Systems program, the Advanced Fuel Cycle Initiative aims
to develop 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 recover the energy
content in spent nuclear fuel in a proliferation-resistant manner. The
Department supports the Nuclear Hydrogen Initiative, which will develop
advanced technologies that can be used in tandem with next generation
nuclear plants to generate economic, commercial quantities of hydrogen
to support a sustainable, clean energy future for the U.S. The
Department continues to support the University program, preserving the
education and training infrastructure needed to develop the next
generation of nuclear scientists and engineers.

Nuclear Energy programs 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. 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.

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, 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.

Office of Legacy Management (Non-defense).--This program supports
non-defense related long-term stewardship activities at sites where
active remediation has been completed. These activities include ground
water monitoring, administration of post-closure contractor liabilities,
records management, and disposition of assets excess to current
Department needs.

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 Department's coal
research and development efforts include the Clean Coal Power Initiative
(CCPI) funded at $68 million in the 2006 Budget. CCPI focuses on
FutureGen, a $1 billion project cost-shared with the private sector,
which will create the world's first fossil fuel fired, zero emissions,
electricity and hydrogen producing power plant. The Budget includes $18
million in 2006 and $257 million to become available in 2007 towards the
government's share for FutureGen, and $50 million in 2006 for other CCPI
cooperative cost-shared programs between the government and industry to
address the most critical barriers to coal's use in the power sector.
Other supporting coal activities include (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 Department will continue to increase
involvement of the private sector and academia to help conduct and
direct research toward the most critical challenges to expansion of coal
use for power generation in the United States.

Other power systems.--Other Power Systems focuses on fuel cell
technology for distributed power generation systems.

Oil and gas.--The Oil and Gas programs will effect an orderly
termination of activities. Funding for these programs in the 2006 Budget
will be used to fulfill environmental remediation, contract termination,
and other legal obligations incurred by the termination process. Prior
year funds will be used to complete ongoing projects.

Program direction and management support.--The program provides the
funding for all headquarters and indirect field personnel and overhead
expenses in Fossil Energy and Clean Coal Technology. 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 across the U.S.
borders. Regulatory reviews and oversight of the transmission of
electricity across the U.S. borders is transferred to the Office of
Electric Transmission and Distribution.

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 2006 Budget continues the Hydrogen Fuel Initiative to accelerate
the worldwide availability and affordability of hydrogen infrastructure
and hydrogen-powered fuel cell vehicles. The initiative is a partnership
with energy companies focused on research to advance hydrogen
production, storage, and infrastructure. It complements the FreedomCAR
partnership with the auto industry, 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 to improve the efficiency of advanced
combustion engines, using fuels with formulations developed for such
engines, and incorporating non-petroleum based components. In general,
program R&D seeks technology breakthroughs that will enable America's
highway transportation to greatly reduce petroleum use.

Fuel cell technologies.--This program supports both the Hydrogen
Fuel Initiative and the FreedomCAR partnership. The program develops
fuel cell technologies for transportation and stationary applications
that are more efficient, reliable, durable and lower in cost. The long-
term aim is to develop advanced fuel cell technology that will allow the
Nation to aggressively move forward to achieving a vision of a cleaner,
more secure energy future. The current fuel cell research efforts will
help facilitate a decision by industry to commercialize hydrogen-powered
fuel cell vehicles by the year 2015.

Weatherization and intergovernmental.--The Weatherization and
Intergovernmental program funds activities that fa

[[Page 403]]

cilitate 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.--This 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. 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 in partnership with
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, such as sensors
and controls, combustion, and advanced industrial materials, which may
contribute to significant energy benefits in multiple industries.

Biomass and biorefinery systems R&D.--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.

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

[[Page 404]]

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 began in May
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 was directed to fill the
Reserve to 700 million barrels, principally using royalty oil from
federal offshore leases. Fill operations commenced April 2002 with
completion planned in the last quarter of 2005. 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 Petroleum Account received
$1,955,000 in 2003 for transportation related to Royalty Oil. Funding
was not requested in the 2004 or 2005 budgets for Royalty Oil due to a
contractual change making transportation charges for Royalty-In-Kind
fill the responsibility of the contractors. The Petroleum Account also
funds drawdown and sales operations of the Reserve. To provide
additional authority in the event of a drawdown, the 2000 Interior
Appropriations Act included language providing ``that the Secretary of
Energy hereafter may transfer to the SPR Petroleum Account such funds as
may be necessary to carry out drawdown and sale operations of the
Strategic Petroleum Reserve . . .''

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 a competitive wholesale marketplace
while assuring consumers' access to reliable service at a reasonable
price.

The Commission will continue to ensure that environmental concerns
involving energy projects are properly addressed and that the public
interest is protected when proposed hydropower projects are licensed or
existing projects are relicensed and when new natural gas foreign and
interstate facilities and 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 1,600 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 the construction and operation of natural gas
pipelines liquefied natural gas import terminal facilities and other
jurisdictional interstate natural gas facilities.

In 2004, the Commission continued to coordinate closely with
representatives of all agencies having a role in natural gas safety and
security matters, including the U.S. Coast Guard, the Department of
Transportation (DOT), the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), and
state and local law enforcement. In addition, the Commission placed
increased emphasis on plant security measures and improvements in
conducting biennial inspections of jurisdictional LNG facilities and in
signing an agreement to coordinate security and safety reviews of these
facilities with the Coast Guard and the Office of Pipeline Safety. In
the hydropower program, the Commission further developed its Hydropower
Security Program by creating and launching the Dam Assessment
Methodology for Security and Vulnerability Risk in coordination with
other Federal agencies. Coordination of Commission security efforts with
the FBI and the Office of Homeland Security continued. The Commission
participated in workgroups with agencies and licensee representatives to
assist in developing a unified and effective national response to
security at dams.

The Commission, under existing authority, promotes electricity grid
reliability by: (1) fostering regional coordination and planning of the
interstate grid through independent system operators (ISOs) and regional
transmission organizations (RTOs); (2) adopting transmission pricing
policies that provide price signals for the most reliable and efficient
operation and expansion of the grid; and (3) providing pricing
incentives at the wholesale level for investment in grid improvements
and ensuring opportunities for cost recovery in wholesale transmission
rates. In April 2004, the Commission issued a policy statement on
matters related to electric system reliability in which it addressed the
need to expeditiously modify the North American Electric Reliability
Council's (NERC) reliability standards in order to make these standards
clear and enforceable. The Commission supports public utility compliance
with the reliability standards, stating that Good Utility Practice
includes compliance with these standards. The Commission coordinates its
reliability efforts with other federal and state agencies, and Canadian
provincial regulators, and is also coordinating with the Nuclear
Regulatory Commission on issues related to transmission grid reliability
and nuclear plant safety.

Competitive wholesale energy markets.--The Commission fosters
nationwide competitive wholesale 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 eligible wholesale customers under non-discriminatory
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.

The Commission envisions that regional authorities will play a
significant role in establishing regional power markets. The Commission
will rely on regional state committees to address significant market
design features for their regions while ensuring that seams issues
between regions are minimized. State commission and market participants
in each region will have sufficient flexibility to work out the details
of how certain core elements will be implemented in their respective
regions.

As of the end of 2004, the Commission has facilitated a steady,
positive evolution of RTOs and competitive markets, as evidenced by the
following examples:

The Midwest Independent System Operator, Inc. (Midwest ISO)
operates in all or parts of fourteen Midwestern states and one Canadian
province.

The Southwest Power Pool's (SPP) proposal to establish an
RTO was conditionally accepted by the Commission in February 2004 and
RTO status was granted in October 2004.

The PJM Interconnection (PJM), which was granted RTO status
in late 2002 and has since integrated a number of additional utilities'
transmission systems, is working with the Midwest ISO to create a joint
and common market that will span from the Atlantic Ocean to the Rocky
Mountains. Moreover, in October 2004 the Commission conditionally
approved Virginia Power's application to join PJM Interconnection and
create PJM South, which would extend the RTO's geographic scope
throughout Virginia and into a portion of North Carolina.

[[Page 407]]

ISO-New England was granted RTO status in March 2004,
subject to fulfillment of certain market design requirements.

The New York ISO and ISO-New England have working groups
that are striving to make the two ISOs act as if they were a single
operator, and dispatch across seams in a manner that would be more
consistent with dispatch over internal constraints.

The California ISO, currently operating as a statewide ISO,
is in the process of implementing a redesign of its wholesale
electricity markets.

WestConnect RTO was given preliminary approval to operate
in parts of the Desert Southwest States, and continues to explore staged
implementation.

Grid West, the successor to RTO West, representing owners
of a vast majority of the high-voltage transmission grid in the Pacific
Northwest, has adopted bylaws that will govern a nonprofit membership
corporation to further develop a new regionally focused independent
transmission provider.

The Commission is committed to encouraging competitive market
institutions across the lower 48 states, and to implementing clear,
self-enforcing market rules across the Nation's regional bulk power
markets that balance the interests of all market participants. To that
end, the Commission proposed an incentive pricing policy to further
encourage development of regional transmission networks and needed
investment in transmission infrastructure, and to improve grid
performance.

Market oversight.--The Commission must protect customers and market
participants through vigilant and fair oversight of the transitioning
energy markets. 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. 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 will not harm competition. The
Commission will detect abuses of market power quickly and use
prohibitions and monetary remedies 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.

Management initiatives.--Efficient management of resources
facilitates accomplishing the Commission's regulatory mission. Resource
management includes human resources management 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. Final payment of the $25 million
was received in 2004.

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 and related contracts and agreements which
transferred the facility to the private sector. The largest recent 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. Federal Revenue Sharing
Receipts during 2004 were $51.8 million. Revenue Sharing Receipts during
2005 are expected to total $64.1 million.

Elk Hills School Lands Fund

For necessary expenses in fulfilling installment payments under the
Settlement Agreement entered into by the United States and the State of
California on October 11, 1996, as authorized by section 3415 of Public
Law 104-106, [$36,000,000, to become available on October 1, 2005]
$48,000,000, for payment to the State of California for the State

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 unless the seventh payment needs to be deferred in
whole or in part due to the equity finalization schedule. The 2004
advance appropriation of $36,000,000 was the sixth payment in 2005. In
keeping with the revised equity finalization schedule, the 2006 Budget
requests $48,000,000 in new budget authority in addition to the FY 2005
advance appropriation for the seventh installment payment of
$36,000,000.

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. The Administration is committed to ensuring the
environmentally sound and safe disposal of the Nation's radioactive
waste.

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

[[Page 412]]

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.

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 and Southeastern funding.--In 2006,
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 2006 are decreased to reflect implementation
of this proposal. The President's 2006 Budget also proposes to offset
Southeastern's appropriation for Program Direction activities with
receipts collected from the sale of Federal power and related services
that would otherwise be deposited into a receipt account at Treasury.
The net 2006 appropriation for such activities from the General Fund
will be $0.

Purchase power and wheeling.--Provision is made for the payment of
wheeling fees and for the purchase of electricity in connection with the
disposal of power under contracts with utility companies. Customers are
encouraged to use alternative funding mechanisms, including customer
advances and net billing to finance these activities. Offsetting
collections to fund these ongoing operating services are also available

[[Page 413]]

up to $32.7 million. Estimates for these activities are reduced in 2006
to reflect average water levels over the past 20 years and prevailing
electricity prices in 2004.

activities shall be reduced as such offsetting collections are received
during fiscal year 2006 so as to result in a final fiscal year 2006
appropriation net of these collections of not to exceed $3,166,000.
In addition, notwithstanding [the provisions of] 31 U.S.C. 3302, up
to [$2,900,000] $1,235,000 collected by the Southwestern Power
Administration pursuant to the Flood Control Act to recover purchase
power and wheeling expenses shall be credited to this account as
offsetting collections, to remain available until expended for the sole
purpose of making purchase power and wheeling expenditures[; in

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 47 VHF radio and microwave stations. Southwestern markets and
delivers its power at wholesale rates primarily to publicly and
cooperatively owned electric distribution utilities. Its

[[Page 414]]

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 subprogram provides for 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 essential
electrical and communications equipment replacement and upgrades,
technical services, and supplies and materials necessary for the safe
reliable operation and cost effective maintenance of the power and
transmission system.

Purchase power and wheeling.--Provision is made for the purchase and
delivery of energy to meet limited peaking power contractual obligations
and transmission line losses from the delivery of power over the Federal
system. Federal power receipts and alternative methods, including net
billing, bill crediting, and customer advances will be used to fund
system support and other contractual services. Customers are encouraged
to contract for power on their own and will provide other resources and/
or purchases for the remainder of their firm loads.

Construction.--The construction subprogram provides for replacement,
addition and modification of existing infrastructure to sustain reliable
delivery of power to its customers to contain annual maintenance costs,
and to improve overall efficiency.

Reimbursable program.--This activity involves services provided by
Southwestern Power Administration to others under various types of
reimbursable arrangements.

Use of receipts for Corps O&M and Southwestern funding.--In 2006,
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 Federal power.
Proprietary receipts estimated for 2006 are reduced to reflect
implementation of this proposal. The President's 2006 Budget also
proposes to offset Southwestern's appropriation for Program Direction
and Operations and Maintenance activities with receipts collected from
the sale of Federal power and related services that would otherwise be
deposited into a receipt account at Treasury. The capital intensive
activities within the Construction subprogram are not proposed for
offset by receipts; the net appropriation will continue to reflect these
capital activities.

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 about 17,000 circuit-miles of high-voltage transmission line,
more than 270 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.--Provision is made for the payment of
wheeling fees and for the purchase of electricity in connection with the
disposal of power under contracts with utility companies. Customers are
encouraged to contract for power and wheeling on their own, or use
alternative funding mechanisms, including customer advances, net billing
and bill crediting to finance these activities. Ongoing operating
services are also available on a reimbursable basis up to $148.5
million. In addition, these activities are reduced in 2006 to reflect
average water levels over the past 20 years and prevailing electricity
prices in 2004.

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 (CRSP) in the State of Utah. The
2006 Budget proposes to provide mitigation on a reimbursable basis from
increased receipts to the Colorado River Basins Power Marketing Fund
derived from CRSP customers. CRSP has facilities that cause
environmental effects in Utah. Receipts in the amount of $6.7 million
will be deposited into the Utah Reclamation, Mitigation and Conservation
account in the U.S. Treasury. Western sells and transmits power from two
projects in Utah. 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.

[[Page 416]]

Western will continue to spend out of the Colorado River Dam Fund
for operations and maintenance activities associated with the Boulder
Canyon Project via a reimbursable arrangement with the Interior
Department's Bureau of Reclamation. The Colorado River Dam Fund is a
revolving fund operated by the Bureau of Reclamation. Authority for
Western to obligate directly from the Colorado River Dam Fund comes from
section 104(a) of the Hoover Power Plant Act of 1984.

The 2006 Budget proposes to offset entirely the appropriation from
the Reclamation Fund for Program Direction and Systems Operation and
Maintenance activities with receipts collected from the sale of power
and related services that would otherwise be deposited to the
Reclamation Fund. The capital intensive activities within System
Construction are not proposed for offset by receipts; the net
appropriation will continue to reflect these capital activities.

In 2006, 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.
Similarly, the Administration proposes that financing of the Interior
Department's Bureau of Reclamation's operation and maintenance costs in
Western's service area that are allocated to the power function for
repayment, as well as a portion of Reclamation's hydropower research and
development activities, will be funded from Western receipts derived
from the sale of power and related services. Proprietary receipts
estimated for 2006 are decreased to reflect the implementation of this
proposal.

Pursuant to section 423(c) of the Foreign Relations Authorization
Act, Fiscal Years 1994 and 1995, Western Area Power Administration is
requesting funding from the Falcon and Amistad Operating and Maintenance
Fund, to defray operations, maintenance, and emergency (O,M&E) expenses
for the hydroelectric facilities at Falcon and Amistad Dams on the Rio
Grande River. Most of these funds will be made available to the United
States Section of the International Boundary and Water Commission
through a reimbursable agreement. $200,000 in the fund is for an
emergency reserve that will remain unobligated unless unanticipated
expenses arise. Revenues in excess of O,M&E will be paid to the General
Fund to repay the costs of replacements and the original investment with
interest. The President's 2006 Budget proposes to deposit revenues
resulting from the Falcon and Amistad Dams power system operations in
the Falcon and Amistad Operating and Maintenance Fund as offsetting
collections, resulting in a net appropriation of zero.

Bonneville Power Administration (BPA) is a 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 2005 to consist of an estimated 15,000 circuit miles of high-
voltage transmission lines and 284 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
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 $4.45 billion.

BPA finances its $3.7 billion annual cost of operations and
investments primarily using power revenues and loans from the U.S.
Treasury. The amount of loans from the U.S. Treasury is currently capped
by statute at $4.45 billion. BPA has also started seeking non-federal
participation and joint financing and ownership of its transmission
system upgrades and other investments. BPA will coordinate with the
Secretary of Energy or his designee on such alternative financing
opportunities before exercising its borrowing authority.

Consistent with scorekeeping procedures developed under the Budget
Enforcement Act of 1990, some agency lease-purchase transactions
constitute a form of Federal agency debt for budget purposes. This
reflects the fact that these long-term transactions result in
liabilities that make a claim on future agency resources. (The
scorekeeping procedures are discussed at more length elsewhere in the
budget documents.) During 2004, BPA entered into such a lease purchase
transaction. As stated above, BPA's debt to the U.S. Treasury is
currently limited by statute. To ensure the integrity and usefulness of
this limitation, the Administration is proposing legislation calling for
certain nontraditional financing transactions that are entered into
after the date the legislation is enacted and that are similar to debt-
like transactions to be treated as debt and counted toward BPA's
statutory debt limit. This legislative proposal will be fully vetted
with BPA stakeholders.

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 284 substations, and for maintaining the facilities
and equipment of the Bonneville transmission system in 2006.

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, contractual 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 $4.45 billion borrowing authority provided by the
Transmission Act as amended by the Pacific Northwest Power Act and
replenished by Public Law 98-50 and Public Law 108-7. 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

[[Page 419]]

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 and Public Law 108-7, it allows for
$4.45 billion of borrowing to be outstanding at any time. In order to
accommodate Bonneville's projections of its investment needs through
2010, including potential financing through transactions that would
count against its debt cap under proposed legislation, the Budget is
proposing to increase the limit on Bonneville's borrowing authority by
$200 million. The 2006 capital obligations are estimated to be $487.5
million. To the extent BPA capital borrowing authority is insufficient
in 2006, BPA would use cash reserves generated by revenues from
customers, if available, to finance some of these investments.

In 2004, BPA made payments to the Treasury of $1.053 billion and
also expects to make payments of $775.0 million in 2005 and $848.0
million in 2006. The 2006 payment will be distributed as follows:
interest on bonds and appropriations ($453.0 million), amortization
($372.0 million), and other ($23.0 million). BPA also received credits
totaling $83.5 million applied against its Treasury payments in 2004 to
reflect amounts diverted to fish mitigation efforts in the Columbia and
Snake River systems.

Direct loans.--During 2006, no new direct loan obligations may be
made.

Operating results.--Total revenues are forecast at approximately
$3.6 billion in 2006.

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.

GENERAL PROVISIONS

Sec. 301. (a)(1) None of the funds in this or any other
appropriations Act for fiscal year [2005] 2006 or any previous fiscal
year may be used to make payments for a noncompetitive management and
operating contract unless the Secretary of Energy has published in the
Federal Register and submitted to the Committees on Appropriations of
the House of Representatives and the Senate a written notification, with
respect to each such contract, of the Secretary's decision to use
competitive procedures for the award of the contract, or to not renew
the contract, when the term of the contract expires.
(2) Paragraph (1) does not apply to an extension for up to 2 years
of a noncompetitive management and operating contract, if the extension
is for purposes of allowing time to award competitively a new contract,
to provide continuity of service between contracts, or to complete a
contract that will not be renewed.
(b) In this section:
(1) The term ``noncompetitive management and operating
contract'' means a contract that was awarded more than 50 years ago
without competition for the management and operation of Ames
Laboratory, Argonne National Laboratory, Lawrence Berkeley National
Laboratory, Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, and Los Alamos
National Laboratory.
(2) The term ``competitive procedures'' has the meaning provided
in section 4 of the Office of Federal Procurement Policy Act (41
U.S.C. 403) and includes procedures described in section 303 of the
Federal Property and Administrative Services Act of 1949 (41 U.S.C.
253) other than a procedure that solicits a proposal from only one
source.
(c) For all management and operating contracts other than those
listed in subsection (b)(1), 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. At least 60 days before a contract
award for which the Secretary intends to grant such a waiver, the
Secretary shall submit to the Committees on Appropriations of the House
of Representatives and the Senate a report notifying the Committees 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
(2) provide enhanced severance payments or other benefits for

accounts and thereafter may be accounted for as one fund for the same
time period as originally enacted.
Sec. 306. 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. 307. When the Department of Energy makes a user facility
available to universities or other potential users, or seeks input from
universities or 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. When the Department of Energy considers the participation of a
university or other potential user as a formal partner in the
establishment or operation of a user facility, the Department shall
employ full and open competition in selecting such a partner. For
purposes of this section, the term ``user facility'' includes, but is
not limited to: (1) a user facility as described in section 2203(a)(2)

Administration may authorize the 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:

purposes of section 504 of the National Security Act of 1947 (50 U.S.C.
414) during fiscal year [2005] 2006 until the enactment of the
Intelligence Authorization Act for fiscal year [2005] 2006.
Sec. 310. (a) The Secretary of Energy was directed to file a permit
