The Affordable Housing Program was created by the Financial
Institutions Reform, Recovery, and Enforcement Act of 1989 (FIRREA).
FIRREA requires each of the twelve Federal Home Loan Banks to contribute
the greater of 10 percent of its previous year's net earnings or $100
million to an Affordable Housing Program (AHP) to be used to subsidize
the cost of affordable homeownership and rental housing. The Federal
Housing Finance Board regulates the AHP and ensures that the AHP
fulfills its mission.
Note.--Financial data presented for future years is based on the
2006 program level and is not an estimate of future earnings of the
Federal Home Loan Banks.

This appropriation supports a Federal-State partnership to invest in
sustainable economic development in the 410-county Appalachian Region.
The Appalachian Regional Commission is comprised of 13 members
representing the States in the region and a Federal Co-Chairman. The
Federal Co-Chairman represents the Federal Government on the Commission
and leads in the coordination of programs serving the Appalachian Region
across the Federal Government.
Appalachian Development Highway System.--The Appalachian Development
Highway System (ADHS), including local access roads, is designed to
improve the accessibility of Appalachia and reduce highway
transportation costs to and within Appalachia. The Safe, Accountable,
Flexible, Efficient, Transportation Equity Act: A Legacy for Users
(SAFETEA-LU) authorized $470 million annually out of the Highway Trust
Fund for each of the years 2005 through 2009 for construction of the
ADHS and local access road projects. The ARC exercises policy and
programmatic control over these funds.
Area development and technical assistance program.--Area development
funds are allocated by formula to the 13 member States for projects that
promote sustainable regional economic development, with assistance
targeted at the most distressed and underdeveloped counties and areas.
Area development provides funds for projects that advance the goals
and objectives of ARC's 2005-2010 strategic plan: 1) increasing
Appalachian job opportunities and per capita income, 2) improving
employability through education and health initiatives, 3) strengthening
infrastructure, including basic services like clean water, and 4)
building the Appalachian Development Highway System. In 2008, the
Commission will continue to focus on planning and coordinating regional
investments and targeting resources to those communities with the
greatest needs.
Local development districts program.--ARC's 410 counties are divided
into 72 multi-county local development districts (LDDs) that assist
local governments in identifying needs and developing strategies in a
regional context to promote sustainable community and economic
development.
Salaries and expenses.--In this Federal-State partnership, the
Federal Government contributes half of the expenses of a professional
staff which works with the states and the Federal staff in operating the
program. The other half of these non-Federal employee expenses are
provided by member States.
Performance.--In its PART assessment, the Appalachian Regional
Commission received an Adequate rating and has continued to make
progress in developing outcome-based performance measures. In 2008, ARC
will implement a challenge grant program. Grants will be awarded to
communities that develop innovative and entrepreneurial approaches to
economic development or that implement regional or multi-jurisdictional
strategies. Performance measures will track the progress of each
community.

The Budget proposes $8.8 million for the U.S. Commission on Civil
Rights (USCCR). As a bi-partisan, independent agency, USCCR monitors and
reports on the status of civil rights in the nation. Through its
national and regional offices, USCCR: 1) investigates charges of
citizens being deprived of voting rights because of color, race,
religion, sex, age, disability, or national origin; 2) collects and
studies information covering legal developments constituting a denial of
equal protection under the law or in the administration of justice; 3)
monitors and appraises Federal laws, policies, and agencies to assess
their civil rights enforcement efforts; 4) serves as a national
clearinghouse for civil rights information; 5) prepares public service
announcements and advertising campaigns to discourage discrimination and
denials of equal projection of the laws; and 6) issues reports with
findings and recommendations to the President and Congress.

The Committee for Purchase From People Who Are Blind or Severely
Disabled (the Committee) administers the Ability One Program (formerly
known as the JWOD Program) under the authority of the Javits-Wagner-
O'Day Act of 1971, as amended. The principal objective of the Program is
to leverage the purchasing power of the Federal Government to provide
employment opportunities for people who are blind or have other severe
disabilities. The Committee accomplishes its mission by first
identifying Government procurement requirements that can create
employment opportunities for individuals who are blind or have other
severe disabilities. Following opportunities for public comment and
after due deliberation, the Committee then places such products and
service requirements on the Ability One Procurement List, thus requiring
Federal departments and agencies to procure the designated products and
services from a network of over 625 qualified State and private
nonprofit agencies (NPAs) employing people who are blind or have other
severe disabilities.
The long-term goal of the Ability One Program has been and continues
to be increasing job opportunities for people who are blind or have
other severe disabilities. In 2005, approximately 47,000 individuals who
earned $392.7 million in wages were employed through the Ability One
Program. Because of their employment, these individuals have reduced
their dependence on Social Security, Food Stamps, Temporary Assistance
of Needy Families, and other public income transfer payments.
Because of changes in Federal procurement practices, the focus of
the Ability One Program has changed significantly in the last decade. In
an effort to become the preferred source for products and services for
Federal customers, the Program has opened new lines of business in areas
such as automotive fleet management, document destruction services, and
secure mail facility management that offer opportunities for future
employment growth and support the President's Management Agenda for a
more streamlined, efficient Government. In addition to pursuing these
initiatives, the Program has expanded the range of military unique
products and services it has traditionally provided to meet the needs of
the Nation's war fighters. The resources proposed for 2008 would enable
the Committee to continue increasing employment opportunities for people
who are blind or severely disabled while providing Federal departments
and agencies with high quality products and services to support their
missions.

The Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) administers the
Commodity Exchange Act of 1936 (CEA), as amended. CFTC furthers the
economic utility of the futures markets by encouraging efficiency,
assuring integrity, and protecting participants against abusive trade
practices, fraud, and deceit. CFTC performs daily surveillance of high-
risk market activity and fundamental economic market factors as it
systematically investigates the functioning of markets and market users.
CFTC's oversight enables the markets to better serve their designated
functions of providing a price discovery mechanism and CFTC constantly
works to develop better tools to assist in detecting and preventing
price distortions. CFTC also is responsible for detecting,
investigating, and litigating violations of the CEA and CFTC regulations
and monitors compliance activities of designated contract markets,
registered commodities professionals, and self-regulatory organizations.
The Administration proposes increased resources for the CFTC in
2008. These increased resources will ensure proper oversight of the
markets through the maintenance of adequate staffing levels, which
generally have been held constant for years in the face of substantial
market growth--trading volume has quadrupled over the past 12 years. The
resources will also allow the CFTC to build upon its knowledge of the
increasingly complex futures markets and improve its ability to
undertake enforcement actions against wrongdoers. The CFTC must remain
vigilant in its supervision of critical areas such as energy and foreign
currency exchange fraud, and maintain expertise of the changing nature
of traded products and evolving platforms on which they are traded.
The CFTC is the only Federal financial regulator that does not
derive its funding from the specialized entities it regulates, and since
the CFTC's programs provide clear benefits to market participants it is
appropriate for those participants to at least partially offset or
contribute toward the cost of providing those programs. Legislation will
be proposed to collect a new transaction fee on commodity futures and
option contracts traded on approved exchanges. The fees would be set at
a level to equal the costs to the taxpayer of funding CFTC's Market
Oversight and Clearing & Intermediary Oversight functions. Such fees are
already imposed on futures exchanges to fund the programs of the futures
industry's self-regulatory organization, and will help to offset the
deficit impact of general taxpayer funding of the CFTC's activities.

The Corporation for National and Community Service works with non-
profit organizations, faith-based groups, schools, and other civic
organizations to engage Americans of all ages and backgrounds in
community-based service which addresses the nation's educational, human,
public safety, and environmental needs. In doing so, the Corporation
fosters civic responsibility, strengthens the ties that bind us together
as a people, and provides educational opportunity for those who make a
substantial commitment to service.
The 2008 Budget combines the Domestic Volunteer Service Program
account with the National and Community Service Programs account, under
the latter heading, for national service programs authorized
respectively under the National and Community Service Act and the
Domestic Volunteer Service Act. These programs include:
Learn and Serve America.--Provides grants to schools, higher
education institutions, and after-school programs to integrate service
into their curricula. Service-learning aims to promote civic
participation and volunteering from an early age.
AmeriCorps National Civilian Community Corps.--A residential
national service program for people ages 14-24. The Budget funds 1,200
AmeriCorps*NCCC members that will deploy to respond to disasters.
AmeriCorps State and National grants.--With funds both channeled
through states and provided directly to community based organizations,
AmeriCorps grants enable communities to recruit, train and place
AmeriCorps members to meet critical community needs in education, public
safety, health, and the environment. The Budget funds 66,900 AmeriCorps
State and National members.
AmeriCorps Volunteers in Service to America.--The AmeriCorps*VISTA
program provides full-time members to community organizations and public
agencies working to resolve local poverty-related problems in areas such
as illiteracy, hunger, unemployment, substance abuse, homelessness, and
lack of adequate health support. The Budget request funds 6,900
AmeriCorps*VISTA members.
AmeriCorps National Service Trust.--The Trust serves as a secure
repository for educational awards set aside for eligible participants in
National Service programs. The 2008 Budget meets the President's goal of
funding 75,000 AmeriCorps members and is based on the accounting
methodology specified in the Strengthen AmeriCorps Program Act of 2003.
State service commission administrative grants.--These formula
grants support the operations of state service commissions, through
which the Corporation funds roughly three-quarters of AmeriCorps*State
and National programs. Commissions are responsible for monitoring sub-
grantees and ensuring that they comply with federal requirements and
performance expectations. These grants must be matched by the
commissions.
Senior Corps.--These programs provide opportunities for people aged
55 and over, including those who are low-income, to volunteer their
services to the community in many socially useful activities including
helping children learn to read and working with the emotionally
disturbed, the mentally retarded, and physically disabled, as well as
the isolated and infirm elderly. The Budget request supports over
500,000 senior volunteers.
Innovation, demonstration, and assistance.--This activity supports
innovative and demonstration service programs that may not be eligible
under other subtitles of the national service laws, disabled program
participants who need special accommodation, and other activities that
help build an ethic of service among Americans of all ages and
backgrounds.
Points of Light Foundation.--A grant will be provided to this non-
government, nonprofit 501(c)(3) entity to enable it to increase
opportunities for Americans to participate in voluntary activities.
Evaluation.--This activity supports performance measurement and
studies of program impact. The Budget request funds key recurring data
collection activities: performance benchmarking surveys for each major
program, a longitudinal study of the impact of AmeriCorps service on
members, and a Current Population Survey supplement on volunteering in
America.

The gifts and contributions account is a consolidation of two trust
funds. In one, gifts and contributions from individuals and
organizations are deposited for use in furthering program goals. In the
other, funds appropriated to make educational awards to individuals who

the individual uses those awards.

General programming.--The Corporation for Public Broadcasting
provides grants to qualified public television and radio stations to be
used at their discretion for purposes related to program production or
acquisition and general operations. The Corporation also supports the
production and acquisition of radio and television programs for national
distribution. In addition, the Corporation assists in the financing of
several system-wide activities, including national satellite
interconnection services and the payment of music royalty fees, and
provides limited technical assistance, research, and planning services
to improve system-wide capacity and performance. By custom, the
Corporation has received an advance appropriation. For 2008,
appropriations of $400 million were enacted in 2006, from which the
Administration proposes to cancel $50 million.
The Administration proposes that the Corporation receive
appropriations like other programs that receive Federal assistance.
Therefore, a 2009 funding request for the Corporation will be proposed
in the 2009 President's Budget.
To ensure Federal funding provides the greatest benefit, CPB, in
consultation with public broadcasting licensees, will continue to
explore more effective means for targeting resources to areas of most
need.
Digital Transition.-- The Budget proposes that in 2008, up to $30.6
million from within the Corporation's already enacted 2008 funding is
made available for digital conversion grants to public television
broadcasters. Public television broadcasting stations have mostly
completed activities necessary to fulfill Federal Communications
Commission mandates to convert to digital technology. These dollars are
intended to support the necessary equipment that will allow stations to
complete their conversions to digital broadcasting as required by law.
Interconnection.--The Corporation, in an agreement with National
Public Radio, will begin to replace the public radio interconnection
system, which is the major national distribution network for public
broadcasting stations. The Budget proposes that up to $26.75 million in
funding is made available from within the 2008 appropriation to begin
the replacement and upgrade of the interconnection system.

The National Capital Revitalization and Self-Government Improvement
Act established the Court Services and Offender Supervision Agency
(CSOSA) for the District of Columbia as an independent Federal agency,
which has assumed the District of Columbia (D.C.) pretrial services,
adult probation, and parole supervision functions. The mission of CSOSA
is to increase public safety, prevent crime, reduce recidivism and
support the fair administration of justice in close collaboration with
the community.
The CSOSA appropriation supports the Community Supervision Program
and the Pretrial Services Agency.
Community Supervision Program.--This activity provides supervision
in the community of adult offenders on probation, parole or supervised
release, consistent with a crime prevention strategy that integrates
successful re-entry into the community, close supervision, routine drug
testing, treatment, and graduated sanctions. The activity also develops
and provides probation and parole authorities with timely and useful
information for decision-making. The Budget proposes additional
resources to open all units of the Re-Entry and Sanctions Center.
Pretrial Services Agency.--This activity assists the trial and
appellate levels of both the Federal and local courts in determining
eligibility for pretrial release by providing background information on
all arrestees. The background information is used to establish release
conditions to ensure defendants will return to court and will not be a
danger to the community while on pretrial release. The Pretrial Services
Agency is further responsible for supervising conditions of release,
conducting drug testing, administering graduated sanctions, referring
defendants to treatment and other social services, and reporting on
defendants' compliance to the courts. The Budget proposes additional
resources to reduce the ratio of pre-trial supervisors to defendants
from approximately 124:1 to 75:1, slightly above the national average.

The Defense Nuclear Facilities Safety Board, authorized by Public
Law 100-456, is responsible for evaluating the content and
implementation of the standards relating to the design, construction,
operation, and decommissioning of defense nuclear facilities of the
Department of Energy (DOE) (as defined in Public Law 100-456). The Board
also reviews the design of new DOE defense nuclear facilities and
periodically reviews and monitors construction of such facilities to
ensure adequate protection of public and worker health and safety. In
addition, the National Defense Authorization Act for 1992 and 1993
(Public Law 102-190) expanded the Board's jurisdiction to include
facilities and activities involved with the assembly, disassembly, and
testing of nuclear weapons. The Board is also responsible for
investigating any event or practice at a defense nuclear facility which
has or may adversely affect public health and safety. The Board makes
specific recommendations to the Secretary of Energy on measures that
should be adopted to ensure that both public and employee health and
safety are adequately protected.

The Delta Regional Authority (DRA), authorized by P.L. 106-554, was
established to assist the eight-state, 240-county Mississippi Delta
region in obtaining the transportation and basic public infrastructure,
skills training, and opportunities for economic development essential to
strong local economies.
The DRA was created as a Federal-State partnership. DRA will focus
on: basic public infrastructure in distressed counties and isolated
areas of distress; transportation infrastructure facilitating the
economic development of the region; business development; and job
training or employment-related education. In its PART assessment, the
Delta Regional Authority was rated as Results Not Demonstrated, due to
its lack of annual performance measures and independent program
evaluations. DRA has begun to collect actual results for mature
projects, and will work to develop outcome-based performance measures
based on these data. The Authority will continue to focus on multi-state
planning and facilitation of regional investments.

The Denali Commission was established by the Denali Commission Act
of 1998 (P.L. 105-277) to promote sustainable rural infrastructure
development, to provide job training and other economic development
services in rural communities with a focus on distressed communities,
and to deliver services in the most cost-effective manner practicable in
the State of Alaska. The Denali Commission is composed of seven members
with a Federal Co-Chair. The Commission is required to develop an annual
work plan that ensures coordination of State and Federal agencies for
cost-shared and sustainable utilities and infrastructure related
projects that promote health, safety, and economic self-sufficiency
throughout rural Alaska. The Commission continues to work with other
Federal agencies to coordinate resources for rural Alaska.
A PART assessment of the Denali Commission rated it Adequate,
finding that while the Commission has annual performance measures, it is
difficult to determine the impact the Commission's investments have.
Measuring impact remains a challenge due to the many Federal programs
that provide assistance in the region, and the small share of total
Federal investment that the Commission represents. Therefore, in 2006,
the Commission procured the services of an independent evaluation
contractor to perform a program evaluation. The evaluation will conclude
in the spring of 2007 and is intended to inform the Commission's
revision of its strategic plan and its performance measures.

Under the National Capital Revitalization and Self-Government
Improvement Act of 1997, the Federal Government is required to finance
the District of Columbia Courts. This Federal payment to the District of
Columbia Courts funds the operations of the District of Columbia Court
of Appeals, Superior Court, the Court System, and the Capital
Improvement Program. Capital improvements include establishing a
permanent home for the D.C. Family Court, a complete renovation of the
historic Old Courthouse, as well as design and renovation work on
several other buildings in Judiciary Square.
The 2008 Budget provides resources to fully fund the Courts'
personal services budget, allowing the Courts to fill all authorized
positions and eliminate vacancies in mission-critical positions. The
2008 Budget also provides resources to the Capital Improvement Program
to complete the renovation of the Old Courthouse, and to provide much
needed upgrades to plumbing and electrical systems.
By law, the annual budget includes estimates of the expenditures for
the operations of the District of Columbia Courts prepared by the Joint
Committee on Judicial Administration in the District of Columbia and the
President's recommendation for funding District Courts operations. The
President's recommended level of $214 million includes: $161 million for
District of Columbia Court of Appeals, Superior Court of the District of
Columbia, and the District of Columbia Court System operations; and $53
million for capital improvements for District courthouse facilities.
Under a separate transmittal to the Congress, the District Courts are
requesting $348 million; $168 million for operations and $180 million
for capital improvements.

The District of Columbia Courts appoint and compensate attorneys to
represent persons who are financially unable to obtain such
representation under three Defender Services programs: the Criminal
Justice Act (CJA) program provides court-appointed attorneys to indigent
persons who are charged with criminal offenses; the Counsel for Child
Abuse and Neglect (CCAN) program provides court-appointed attorneys for
family proceedings in which child neglect is alleged, or where the
termination of the parent-child relationship is under consideration and
the parent, guardian, or custodian of the child is indigent; the
Guardianship program provides for the representation and protection of
mentally incapacitated individuals and minors whose parents are
deceased. In addition to legal representation, these programs provide
indigent persons with services such as: transcripts of court
proceedings; expert witness testimony; foreign and sign language
interpretation; and investigations and genetic testing. The President's
recommended funding level for Defender Services is $43 million. Under a
separate transmittal to the Congress, the Courts are requesting $52
million for Defender Services.

Act of 1997, as amended (the Act), requires the Secretary of the
Treasury to make payments at the end of each fiscal year, beginning in
1998, from the General Fund
[[Page 1053]]
of the Treasury into the District of Columbia Judicial Retirement and

years, the net experience gain or loss over 10 years, and any other
changes in actuarial liability over 20 years; and amounts necessary to
fund the normal cost and covered administrative expenses for the year.

The National Capital Revitalization and Self-Government Improvement
Act of 1997, as amended (the Act), requires the Secretary of the
Treasury to make payments at the end of each fiscal year from the
General Fund of the Treasury into the District of Columbia Federal
Pension Fund. This account receives the annual payments from the General
Fund and immediately transfers those amounts to the District of Columbia
Federal Pension Fund. Annual payments consist of amounts necessary to
amortize the original unfunded liability over 30 years, the net
experience gain or loss over 10 years, and any other changes in
actuarial liability over 20 years; and amounts necessary to fund covered
administrative expenses for the year.
Federal Supplemental District of Columbia Pension Fund
The National Capital Revitalization and Self-Government Improvement
Act of 1997 (the Act) established the Federal Supplemental District of
Columbia Pension Fund (Supplemental Fund) to pay retirement benefits for
District of Columbia police officers, firefighters, and teachers after
the District
[[Page 1056]]
of Columbia Federal Pension Liability Trust Fund has been depleted, and
to pay any necessary expenses to administer the fund. The District of
Columbia Retirement Protection Improvement Act of 2005 (enacted December
23, 2004), amended the Act to terminate the Supplemental Fund and
establish the District of Columbia Federal Pension Fund. The assets of
the Supplemental Fund transferred to the District of Columbia Federal
Pension Fund as of October 1, 2004. Prior to the transfer, the
Supplemental Fund consisted of: amounts deposited into the fund; amounts
appropriated to the fund; and income earned from the investment of the
assets in public debt securities.

The 1990 District of Columbia Appropriations Act established a
system ``to improve the means by which the District of Columbia (now the
D.C. Water and Sewer Authority,
[[Page 1057]]
DCWASA) is paid for water and sanitary sewer services furnished to the
Government of the United States or any department, agency, or
independent establishment thereof.'' Each agency is to pay 25 percent of
its estimated yearly bill each quarter by depositing its payment into
this account. If an agency does not submit payment on time, Treasury is
directed to pay the Government-wide bill, making up the difference from
a permanent, indefinite appropriation account, which is then to be
reimbursed by the appropriate agencies.
Trust Funds
District of Columbia Federal Pension Liability Trust Fund
The National Capital Revitalization and Self-Government Improvement
Act of 1997 (the Act) established the District of Columbia Federal
Pension Liability Trust Fund (Trust Fund) to pay retirement benefits for
the District of Columbia police officers, firefighters, and teachers;
and to pay any necessary expenses to administer the Trust Fund or
expenses incurred by the Secretary of the Treasury in carrying out his
responsibilities regarding such retirement benefits. The District of
Columbia Retirement Protection Improvement Act of 2004 (enacted December
23, 2004) amended the Act to terminate the Trust Fund and establish the
District of Columbia Federal Pension Fund. The obligations and assets of
the Trust Fund transferred to the District of Columbia Federal Pension
Fund as of October 1, 2004. Prior to the transfer, the Trust Fund
consisted of: the proceeds of accumulated pension assets transferred
from the District of Columbia during 1999 and liquidated, pursuant to
the Act; and any income earned from the investment of the assets in
public debt securities.

GENERAL PROVISIONS
Sec. 101. Whenever in this Act, an amount is specified within an
appropriation for particular purposes or objects of expenditure, such
amount, unless otherwise specified, shall be considered as the maximum

amount set apart exclusively therefor.
Sec. 102. Appropriations in this Act shall be available for
expenses of travel and for the payment of dues of organizations
concerned with the work of the District of Columbia government, when
authorized by the Mayor, or, in the case of the Council of the District

(b) The District of Columbia may use local funds provided in this
title to carry out lobbying activities on any matter other than--

The Energy Policy Act of 2005 (P.L. 109-58) authorizes the Federal
Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) to certify an Electric Reliability
Organization (ERO) to establish and enforce reliability standards for
the electric bulk-power system. These standards include requirements for
operating existing bulk-power system facilities, including cybersecurity
protection, and design of planned additions or modifications to these
facilities to provide for reliable operation, but does not include
requirements to construct new transmission or generation capacity. On
July 20, 2006, FERC certified the
[[Page 1061]]
North American Electric Reliability Corporation as the ERO. ERO is
funded by fees on end users of the bulk-power system. Since it is
anticipated that ERO will not report budget data to Treasury, ERO
funding is based on estimates.

The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) is the Federal
agency responsible for enforcement of: the Age Discrimination in
Employment Act of 1967; title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, as
amended; the Equal Pay Act of 1963; in the Federal sector only, section
501 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1963; the Americans with Disabilities
Act of 1990; and the Civil Rights Act of 1991. These acts prohibit
employment discrimination based on race, sex, religion, national origin,
age, or disability status. EEOC is also responsible for carrying out
Executive Order 12067, which promotes coordination and minimizes
conflict and duplication among Federal agencies that administer statutes
or regulations involving employment discrimination.

In support of the President's Management Agenda, the 2008 Budget for
EEOC aligns the agency's staffing and funding request with the mission-
related Strategic Objective in its Strategic Plan--Justice and
Opportunity and Inclusive Workplace. Allocations are further distributed
among the agency's programs. Also, there is one Management Objective,
Organizational Excellence. All of EEOC's efforts to become a more
proficient and effective organization are designed to support its
mission-related work. In addition, EEOC will continue to implement the
President's management reforms by streamlining decision layers and
making the agency more accessible and responsive to citizens' needs.
EEOC's enforcement responsibilities are predominately in two areas--
the private sector and the Federal sector. The State and Local Program
is accounted separately under this objective, within the private sector
area.
Private sector: In the private sector, EEOC addresses equal
employment opportunity in several ways. The agency investigates charges
alleging employment discrimination; makes findings on the allegations;
resolves charges through mediation, negotiated settlement or
conciliation; and litigates cases of employment discrimination by
enforcing compliance with Title VII, the Equal Pay Act, the Age
Discrimination in Employment Act, the Americans with Disabilities Act,
and the Civil Rights Act of 1991. The agency engages in proactive
efforts to prevent or remove discriminatory barriers to employment
opportunities, and it conducts outreach events and provides education
and technical assistance to individuals, employers and stakeholder
groups.

EEOC's outreach, education and technical assistance activities are
under the Strategic Objective Justice and Opportunity and Inclusive
Workplace. Staff from most of the agency's programs are involved in
these efforts, and many activities are done in partnership with State
and local program FEPAs. In addition, EEOC's Revolving Fund, which
accompanies this account in the budget, supports these activities.
Outreach, education, and technical assistance: This program is
intended to encourage and facilitate voluntary compliance with the anti-
discrimination laws by employers and employer groups in the private and
Federal sectors, and to increase knowledge about individual rights under
the anti-discrimination laws among employers, employee groups and the
public. To support the President's New Freedom Initiative, the Budget
also provides funding for a review of States' strategies for removing
employment barriers faced by people with disabilities.

The purpose of the Export-Import Bank (Ex-Im Bank or the Bank) is to
sustain U.S. jobs by financing U.S. exports. To accomplish its
objectives, the Bank's authority and resources are used to: assume
commercial and political risks that exporters or private institutions
are unwilling or unable to undertake; overcome maturity and other
limitations in private sector export financing; assist U.S. exporters to
meet officially sponsored foreign export credit competition; and provide
leadership and guidance in export financing to the U.S. exporting and
banking communities and to foreign borrowers. The Bank provides its
export credit support through direct loan, loan guarantee, and insurance
programs. The Bank is actively assisting small- and medium-sized
businesses.
The FY 2008 Budget estimates that the Bank's export credit support
will total $18.7 billion, and will be funded entirely by receipts
collected from the Bank's customers. The Bank estimates it will collect
$146 million in FY 2008 in receipts in excess of expected losses on
transactions authorized in FY 2008 and prior years. These amounts will
be used to: (1) cover the estimated costs for that portion of new
authorizations where fees are insufficient to cover expected losses in
an amount not to exceed $68 million; and (2) to cover administrative
expenses in an amount not to exceed $78 million, of which $13.2 million
are budgeted for technology expenses. If the Bank collects more than
$146 million in FY 2008, up to $50 million of the excess will be made
available in FY 2009; any excess above $50 million will be deposited in
the General Fund of the Treasury, consistent with practice for FY 2007
and previous years.
As required by the Federal Credit Reform Act of 1990, this account
records, for Ex-Im Bank, the subsidy costs associated with direct loans
and direct grants obligated, and loan guarantees and insurance committed
in 1992 and beyond, as well as administrative expenses. The subsidy
amounts are estimated on a present value basis; administrative expenses
are estimated on a cash basis.

Operating results and financial condition.--The Ex-Im Bank is a
wholly-owned Government corporation. Capital stock of $1 billion was
purchased by the U.S. Treasury.
The Ex-Im Bank has a reserve for possible credit losses, which
provides for the risk of loss inherent in the lending process. This
reserve is a general reserve, available to absorb credit losses related
to the total loan portfolio. The reserve is increased by provisions
charged to expenses and decreased by charge-offs, net of recoveries.
The provision for possible credit losses is based on the Bank's
evaluation of the adequacy of the reserve, taking into consideration a
variety of factors, including repayment status of loans, future risk
factors, the relationship of the reserve to the portfolio, and worldwide
economic conditions. Providing for such possible losses does not imply
that any loans will be written off. It simply recognizes the fact that
the prospects for collection of some of the Bank's loans are impaired.
It does not provide for losses on a country-by-country basis and is
intended only to provide an overall revaluation of the loan portfolio.
The Ex-Im Bank's Net Excess of Program Revenue over Costs was
($1,097.7) million in 2006. Total Government Net Position in the
corporation was $533.9 million on September 30, 2006.
As required by the Federal Credit Reform Act of 1990, this account
records, for Ex-Im Bank, all cash flows to and from the Government
resulting from direct loans obligated and loan guarantees and insurance
committed prior to 1992. This account is shown on a cash basis. All new
activity in this program in 1992 and beyond is recorded in corresponding
program and financing accounts.

The Farm Credit Administration (FCA) is an independent Federal
agency that examines and regulates the Farm Credit System (System) for
safety and soundness. The System is a cooperative agricultural credit
system of farm credit banks and associations that lends to farmers,
ranchers, and their cooperatives; farm related businesses; and rural
homeowners. Since 1990, the FCA also performs annual examinations of the
Federal Agricultural Mortgage Corporation. In addition, FCA annually
examines The National Consumer Cooperative Bank.
As of October 1, 2006, the System was composed of four Farm Credit
Banks, one Agricultural Credit Bank, 95 associations, five service
corporations, the Federal Farm Credit Banks Funding Corporation, the
Farm Credit System Financial Assistance Corporation, and the Federal
Agricultural Mortgage Corporation.
Assessments based upon estimated administrative expenses are
collected from institutions in the System, including the Federal
Agricultural Mortgage Corporation, and are available for administrative
expenses. Obligations are incurred within fiscal year budgets approved
by the Farm Credit Administration Board.

The Farm Credit System Insurance Corporation (Corporation) was
established to ensure the timely payment of principal and interest on
System debt obligations purchased by investors. The Corporation is
managed by a three member Board of Directors that consists of the same
members as the Farm Credit Administration Board of Directors. The
Corporation derives its revenues from insurance premiums collected from
insured System banks and from the investment income earned on its
investment portfolio. Insurance premiums are assessed on System banks
based on the level of accruing and non-accruing loans outstanding in
each bank and its affiliated associations' loan portfolio. Congress
established a secure base amount of 2 percent of outstanding System
obligations, or such other amounts determined by its Board of Directors
to be actuarially sound to maintain the Insurance Fund. The Insurance
Fund was below the secure base amount at September 30, 2006 at 1.78%.
For 2006, the Corporation is assessing insurance premiums at 15 basis
points on accrual loans and 25 basis points on non-accrual loans. In
January 2007, the Corporation's Board will determine insurance premium
rates for 2007.
The Insurance Fund is available for payment on System obligations if
an insured System bank defaults on its primary liability. The Insurance
Fund is also available to ensure the timely retirement of certain
eligible borrower stock, and to pay the operating costs of the
Corporation. The Corporation can exercise its authority to make loans,
purchase System bank assets or obligations, provide other financial
assistance and otherwise act to reduce its exposure to losses.
The Corporation has the authority to make refunds of excess
Insurance Fund balances. No refunds are anticipated in 2007.

Under the Telecommunications Act of 1996, telecommunications
carriers that provide interstate and international telecommunications
services are required to contribute funds for the preservation and
advancement of universal service. The contributions provided, in turn,
by each carrier's subscribers, are used to provide services eligible for
universal service support as prescribed by the FCC. Eligible
telecommunications carriers receive support from the universal service
funds if they (1) provide service to high-cost areas, (2) provide
eligible services at a discount to schools, libraries or rural health
care providers, or (3) provide subsidized service or subsidized
telephone installation to low-income consumers. Interest income on these
funds is utilized to reduce carrier contributions. Administrative costs
of the program are provided from carrier contributions.
Program Assessment Rating Tool analyses conducted in 2005 and 2006
revealed that universal service support mechanisms lacked adequate
performance measures and therefore could not demonstrate results. The
FCC is examining program policies, performance measures, and
administrative effectiveness in order to ensure that the programs use
resources efficiently and provide meaningful results.
The Administration supports Universal Service Fund reforms, such as
the use of reverse auctions to allocate High Cost subsidies, that will
help ensure subsidies are well-targeted, demonstrate results, and
minimize the burden to ratepayers. In addition, the Administration will
pursue means to strengthen USF financial and program management, to
minimize waste, fraud, and abuse. The programs can be managed
successfully consistent with standard financial controls such as the
Anti-Deficiency Act, which protect program beneficiaries and ratepayers.

This program provided direct loans for the purpose of purchasing
spectrum licenses at the Federal Communications Commission's auctions.
The licenses were purchased on an installment basis, which constitutes
an extension of credit. The first year of activity for this program was
1996.
As required by the Federal Credit Reform Act of 1990, this account
records, for this program, the subsidy costs associated with the direct
loans obligated in 1992 and beyond (including modifications of direct
loans or loan guarantees that resulted from obligations or commitments
in any year), as well as administrative expenses of this program. The
subsidy amounts are estimated on a present value basis and
administrative expenses are estimated on a cash basis. The FCC no longer
offers credit terms on purchases through spectrum auctions. Program
activity relates to maintenance and close-out of existing loans.

Spectrum License User Fee
To continue to promote efficient spectrum use, the Administration
proposes legislation to provide the Federal Communications Commission
with new authority to use other economic mechanisms, such as fees, as a
spectrum management tool. The Commission would be authorized to set user
fees on unauctioned spectrum licenses based on public-interest and
spectrum-management principles. Fees would be phased in over time as
part of an ongoing rulemaking process to determine the appropriate
application and level for fees. Fee collections are estimated to begin
in 2008, and total $3.6 billion over ten years.
Spectrum Auction Authority
The Administration proposes legislation to extend indefinitely the
authority of the Federal Communications Commission to auction spectrum
licenses, which expires on September 30, 2011.
Domestic Satellite Service Spectrum License Auctions
The Administration proposes legislation to ensure that spectrum
licenses for predominantly domestic satellite services are assigned
efficiently and effectively through competitive bidding. Services such
as Direct Broadcast Satellite and Satellite Digital Audio Radio Services
were assigned by auction prior to a 2005 court decision that questioned
this practice on technical grounds. By clarifying through legislation
that auctions of licenses for these domestic satellite services are
authorized, prior policy of the Federal Communications Commission will
be restored. Auction receipts associated with this clarification are
estimated to begin in 2008, and total $690 million over ten years.
Prospective Ancillary Terrestrial Component Spectrum License Auctions
The Administration proposes legislation to bring greater competition
to the assignment of the land-based component of hybrid terrestrial-
satellite communications networks, such as the Ancillary Terrestrial
Component to Mobile Satellite Services, subject to technical feasibility
as determined by the Federal Communications Commission. The use of
auctions to assign the land-based component for any future satellite
licenses for these hybrid networks will help to ensure that the radio
spectrum is assigned efficiently and effectively, and is put to its most
highly valued use. Auction receipts associated with this policy are
estimated to begin in 2008, and total $1.5 billion over ten years.

FEDERAL DEPOSIT INSURANCE CORPORATION
The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) was created by the
Banking Act of 1933 to provide protection for bank depositors and to
foster sound banking practices.
The Financial Institutions Reform Recovery and Enforcement Act of
1989 established the Bank Insurance Fund (BIF), the Savings Association
Insurance Fund (SAIF), and the Federal Savings and Loan Insurance
Corporation (FSLIC) Resolution Fund (FRF). Under the Deposit Insurance
Reform Act of 2005, the BIF and SAIF were merged into a new Deposit
Insurance Fund (DIF) during 2006. Individual deposits are currently
insured up to $100,000. Under the Deposit Insurance Reform Act, the
deposit insurance ceiling for retirement accounts was increased to
$250,000. In addition, beginning in 2011, and every five years
thereafter, FDIC and NCUA will have the authority to increase deposit
insurance coverage limits for retirement and non-retirement accounts
based on inflation if the Boards of the FDIC and NCUA determine such an
increase is warranted. As part of its efforts to implement the new
legislation, in November 2006 the FDIC Board approved a new system of
risk-based premiums to be charged to depository institutions, and
adopted a rate schedule intended to return the Deposit Insurance Fund to
a Designated Reserve Ratio (the ratio of fund equity to insured
deposits) of 1.25 percent.
The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Improvement Act of 1991
generally requires FDIC to use the least costly method to resolve failed
banks, and mandates that FDIC take prompt corrective action against
under-capitalized financial institutions. In order to accomplish its
varied functions to protect depositors, FDIC is authorized to promulgate
and enforce rules and regulations relating to the supervision of insured
institutions and to perform other regulatory and supervisory duties
consistent with its responsibilities as an insurer.

The primary purpose of the Deposit Insurance Fund (DIF) is to
insure deposits and protect the depositors of failed institutions. Under
the Deposit Insurance Reform Act of 2005, the FDIC's Bank Insurance Fund
(BIF) and its Savings Association Insurance Fund (SAIF) were merged into
the new Deposit Insurance Fund on March 31, 2006. Through the DIF, the
FDIC will resolve and recover assets from failed institutions. The FDIC
is authorized to charge risk-based premiums on member institutions to
manage fund reserves, which must be a designated percent of total
insured deposits--the reserve ratio--as set by the FDIC at the beginning
of each year. The FDIC must set the designated reserve ratio between
1.15 and 1.50 percent of estimated insured deposits each year. If the
reserve ratio is higher than 1.50 percent, the FDIC must return the
amount in the fund in excess of that which is needed to maintain the
1.50 percent ratio to DIF institutions based on each institution's
previously-paid premiums and other factors. If the ratio is between 1.35
and 1.50 percent, the FDIC must rebate half of the amount in the fund in
excess of that which is needed to maintain the 1.35 percent ratio. If
the ratio is projected to fall below 1.15 percent, the FDIC must develop
a five-year restoration plan to ensure the ratio is at or above the
minimum ratio level. Under the Deposit Insurance Reform Act of 2005,
FDIC is also required to provide a one-time $4.7 billion assessment
credit toward the new risk-based insurance premiums, which
[[Page 1074]]
will be distributed among depository institutions that paid premiums
prior to 1997.
In November 2006, the FDIC Board issued a final rule establishing
1.25 percent as its official target for the DIF reserve ratio. At the
end of September 2006, the DIF reserve ratio stood at 1.22 percent. In
November 2006, the FDIC Board also voted to establish a new set of risk-
based premiums for the industry. The new premiums range from a minimum
of five basis points (five cents for every $100 in assessable deposits)
up to as high as 43 basis points based on the assessed risk of an
institution. Taking the redemption of credits into consideration, the
FDIC is expected to collect approximately $1.5 billion in new revenue
from these premiums during 2007 and 2008 combined.

The FSLIC Resolution Fund (FRF) is the successor to FSLIC assets and
liabilities from thrift resolutions prior to August 1989. Beginning in
August 1989, the RTC assumed responsibility for the FSLIC's unresolved
cases. On December 31, 1995, the RTC was terminated and its assets and
liabilities were transferred to FRF.
Funds for FRF operations have come from: income earned on its
assets; liquidation proceeds from receiverships; the proceeds of the
sale of bonds by the Financing Corporation; and, a portion of insurance
premiums paid by SAIF members prior to 1993. The Financial Institutions
Reform, Recovery, and Enforcement Act authorizes appropriations to make
up for any shortfall. The FRF will terminate upon the disposition of all
its assets, and any net proceeds will be paid to the Treasury. Net
proceeds from the former RTC will be paid to the Resolution Funding
Corporation.

FDIC's Office of Inspector General (OIG) is an independent unit
within FDIC that conducts audits and investigations of corporate
activities and assists FDIC in preventing and detecting fraud, waste,
abuse, and mismanagement. The OIG was established by the FDIC Board of
Directors pursuant to the Inspector General Act amendments of 1988
(Public Law 100-504). The Resolution Trust Corporation Completion Act,
enacted December 17, 1993, provided that the FDIC Inspector General be
appointed by the President and confirmed by the Senate. The Completion
Act thus added FDIC to the establishments whose OIGs have separate
appropriation accounts under Section 1105(a) of Title 31, United States
Code. The OIG's appropriations are derived from the DIF and the FRF.

The HIDTA program was established by the Anti-Drug Abuse Act of
1988, as amended, and the Office of National
[[Page 1076]]
Drug Control Policy Reauthorization Act of 2006, to provide assistance
to Federal, State and local law enforcement entities operating in those
areas most adversely affected by drug trafficking.
The HIDTA program provides resources to Federal, State, and local
agencies in each HIDTA region to carry out activities that address the
specific drug threats of that region. A central feature of the HIDTA
program is the discretion granted to HIDTA Executive Boards to design
and carry out activities that reflect the specific drug trafficking
threats found in each HIDTA region. This discretion ensures that each
HIDTA Executive Board can tailor its strategy and initiatives closely to
local conditions and can respond quickly to changes in those conditions.
Among the types of activities funded by the HIDTA program are: drug
enforcement task forces comprised of multiple Federal, State, and local
agencies designed to dismantle and disrupt drug trafficking
organizations (DTOs); multi-agency intelligence centers that provide
drug intelligence to HIDTA initiatives and participating agencies;
initiatives to establish or improve interoperability of communications
and information systems between and among law enforcement agencies; and
investments in technology infrastructure.

The Financial Institutions Reform, Recovery, and Enforcement Act of
1989 (Public Law 101-73) established the Appraisal Subcommittee of the
Federal Financial Institutions Examination Council. Subsequent
legislation (Public Law 101-235) authorized the Secretary of the
Department of Housing and Urban Development to designate a member of the
Appraisal Subcommittee.
The Subcommittee is charged with ensuring that real estate
appraisals used in federally-related transactions are performed in
accordance with uniform standards by appraisers certified and licensed
by the States. Its responsibilities include: (1) monitoring the
requirements established by the States for the certification and
licensing of appraisers; (2) monitoring the requirements established by
the Federal financial institutions' regulatory agencies regarding
appraisal standards; (3) monitoring and reviewing the practices,
procedures, activities, and organization of the Appraisal Foundation;
and, (4) maintaining a national registry of licensed and certified
appraisers.
Subcommittee activities, including grants awarded to the Appraisal
Foundation, were initially funded from a one-time appropriation of $5
million. These funds were repaid to Treasury at the end of 1998 in
accordance with the Economic Growth and Regulatory Paperwork Reduction
Act of 1996. The Subcommittee is now operating on fee income from State-
licensed and certified real estate appraisers in the national registry.

The Budget proposes a new strengthened regulator for the housing
Government-sponsored enterprises (GSEs) to promote a strong, resilient
financial system and increased opportunities for affordable
homeownership. (See the Credit and Insurance chapter in the Analytical
Perspectives volume of the Budget document for more discussion.)
Upon enactment of this proposal, it is expected that all resources
available to the Office of Federal Housing Enter
[[Page 1079]]
prise Oversight (OFHEO) and the Federal Housing Finance Board would be
transferred to the Federal Housing Enterprise Regulator.
The administration supports direct funding of these activities with
mandatory assessments on the housing GSEs, at a level that will be
developed by the Federal Housing Enterprise Regulator upon its creation.
The resource level presented in 2008 is an estimate based on the
estimated activities of OFHEO and the Federal Housing Finance Board for
2007.

The Federal Housing Finance Board (Finance Board) is the safety and
soundness regulator for the Federal Home Loan Bank System, a Government-
sponsored enterprise (GSE). The Finance Board was established by the
Financial Institutions Reform, Recovery, and Enforcement Act of 1989
which amended the Federal Home Loan Bank Act. The duties of the Finance
Board are: (1) to ensure that the twelve Federal Home Loan Banks (Banks)
operate in a safe and sound manner; (2) to supervise the Banks; (3) to
ensure that the Banks carry out their housing finance mission; and, (4)
to ensure the Banks remain adequately capitalized and able to raise
funds in the capital markets. The Finance Board succeeded the former
Federal Home Loan Bank Board with respect to the Banks. The Finance
Board funds its activities through mandatory assessments on the Federal
Home Loan Banks.
The Budget proposes a new strengthened housing GSE regulator as an
independent agency. All Finance Board resources would be transferred to
it. The Administration supports continued direct funding of these
activities with mandatory assessments on the Federal Home Loan Banks.

The Federal Labor Relations Authority (FLRA) is an independent
administrative Federal agency created by Title VII of the Civil Service
Reform Act of 1978 (the Statute) with a mission to carry out five
statutory responsibilities: (1) determining the appropriateness of units
for Labor organization representation; (2) resolving complaints of
unfair labor practices; (3) adjudicating exceptions to arbitrator's
awards; (4) adjudicating legal issues relating to duty to bargain; and
(5) resolving impasses during negotiations. All work throughout the
agency is undertaken to support a single program--to administer and
enforce the Statute by determining the respective rights of employees,
agencies, and labor organizations in their relations with one another.
FLRA's authority is divided by law and by delegation among a three-
member Authority and an Office of General Counsel, appointed by the
President and subject to Senate confirmation; and the Federal Service
Impasses Panel, which consists of seven part-time members appointed by
the President.
FLRA does not initiate cases. Proceedings before FLRA originate from
filings arising through the actions of Federal employees, Federal
agencies, or Federal labor organizations. Nationwide, FLRA includes
seven Regional Offices, two satellite offices, and a Headquarters site
in Washington, D.C. FLRA regional workload declined 32% between 2001 and
2004. Department of Defense and Department of Homeland Security
personnel system reforms may increase this trend.
Authority.--The Authority adjudicates appeals filed by either a
Federal agency or Federal labor organization on negotiability issues;
exceptions to arbitration awards; appropriate units for the purposes of
exclusive recognition; eligibility of labor organizations for national
consultation rights; and unfair labor practice complaints.
[[Page 1081]]
Office of the General Counsel.--The General Counsel investigates
allegations of unfair labor practices and processes all representation
petitions received. In addition, the General Counsel conducts elections
concerning the exclusive recognition of labor organizations and
certifies the results of elections.
Federal Service Impasses Panel.--The Panel resolves labor
negotiation impasses between Federal agencies and labor organizations.

istration for the Fund is financed from the Fund. Program expenses are
derived first from Fund forfeitures of agency one percent automatic
contributions for employees who separate from the Federal Government
prior to vesting and then from earnings on all participant and agency
contributions to the Fund.
The Thrift Savings Fund is a special tax-deferred savings fund
established by the Federal Employees' Retirement System Act of 1986. Due
to the fiduciary nature of the Fund, it is not included in the totals of
the Federal budget. Information on the financial status and activities
of the Fund follows this account.

Information Schedules for the Thrift Savings Fund
The Fund is composed of individual accounts maintained by the
Federal Retirement Thrift Investment Board on behalf of the individual
Federal employee participants in the Fund. All Federal civilian
employees and members of the uniformed services are eligible to
contribute to the Fund. However, only those civilian employees covered
by the Federal Employees' Retirement System (or equivalent retirement
systems) and a limited category of uniformed services personnel may have
their contributions matched by the employing agencies in accordance with
the formulas prescribed by law. Employees are entitled to select how
contributions are distributed among five investment funds: a U.S.
Government securities investment fund; a fixed income index investment
fund; a common stock index investment fund; a small capitalization stock
index investment fund; and an international stock index investment fund.
A series of five lifecycle funds was introduced in August 2005. These
funds are composed of varying allocations of the five core investment
funds. The allocations are based on the target maturity date of each
fund.
Employee participation in the Fund is entirely voluntary, so actual
results could vary significantly from these estimates. The estimated
status of the Fund is shown below:

The Federal Trade Commission (the Commission or FTC) seeks to
protect consumers and enhance competition by eliminating unfair or
deceptive acts or practices in the marketing of goods and services and
by ensuring that consumer markets function competitively. The FTC's work
is based on the belief that competition among producers, and accurate
information in the hands of consumers, bring the best products and
lowest prices to the marketplace, spur innovation, and strengthen the
economy.
Consumer protection.--The Commission is charged with eliminating
unfair or deceptive acts or practices affecting commerce. The goal of
the consumer protection mission is to prevent fraud, deception, and
unfair business practices in the marketplace. The mission works to
accomplish this goal through four objectives: (1) identify fraud,
deception, and unfair practices that cause the greatest consumer injury;
(2) stop fraud, deception, and unfair practices through law enforcement;
(3) prevent consumer injury through education; and (4) enhance consumer
welfare through research, reports, advocacy, and international
cooperation and exchange.
Maintaining competition.--The Commission's efforts are aimed at
fostering and preserving our competitive market. The goal of the
maintaining competition mission is to prevent anticompetitive mergers
and other anticompetitive business practices in the marketplace. The
mission works to accomplish this goal through four objectives: (1)
identify anticompetitive mergers and practices that cause the greatest
consumer injury; (2) stop anticompetitive mergers and practices through
law enforcement; (3) prevent consumer injury through education; and (4)
enhance consumer welfare through research, reports, advocacy, and
international cooperation and exchange.
The President's 2008 Budget includes a program level for the
Commission of $240 million in 2008, allowing the Commission to maintain
the current performance of its missions. The 2008 requested program
level will be fully funded by $76 million from the General Fund of the
U.S. Treasury and offsetting collections from two sources: $145 million
from fees for Hart-Scott-Rodino Act premerger notification filings as
authorized by 15 U.S.C. 18a and $19 million from fees sufficient to
implement and enforce the Telemarketing Sales Rule, promulgated under
the Telephone Consumer Fraud and Abuse Prevention Act (15 U.S.C. 6101 et
seq., as amended).

The Intelligence Community Management Account (ICMA) was established
by Congressional direction to provide resources that directly support
the Director of National Intelligence (DNI) and the Intelligence
Community as a whole in coordinating cross-program activities, improving
budget oversight, and strengthening Community Management. The ICMA funds
selected oversight elements including the National Intelligence Council,
the Center for Security Evaluations, the National Counterintelligence
Executive, and the National Drug Intelligence Center.
These oversight elements are the DNI's principal source of advice
and assistance in planning and executing his intelligence community
management responsibilities. These responsibilities include: developing
the National Intelligence Program budget; developing intelligence plans
and requirements; and overseeing research and development activities.
The National Intelligence Council provides analytical support to the DNI
and national policy makers. The Center for Security Evaluation is
responsible for evaluating and improving security capabilities at United
States embassies. The National Counterintelligence Executive was
established as the primary mechanism to coordinate U.S. Government
national-level counterintelligence policy and activities.

The U.S. International Trade Commission is an independent, quasi-
judicial Federal agency established by Congress with a wide range of
trade-related mandates. The mission of the Commission is twofold:
administer U.S. trade remedy laws in a fair and objective manner; and
provide the President, the United States Trade Representative, and the
Congress with independent, quality advice and information on matters of
international trade and competitiveness.
For 2008, the Commission requests an appropriation of $67.1 million
in order to fund existing mandated investigative activity and related
operations, a mandatory pay increase, and information technology
projects that are designed to improve electronic transaction capability,
provide broader public access to public data and other information,
develop more timely and accurate trade information for the trade
community, and improve transparency in the Commission's procedures and
finances.
In 2003, the Commission issued the latest edition of its Strategic
Plan and is currently implementing the 2007 Performance Plan. For the
purpose of developing the Strategic Plan, the Commission's functions
were divided into five operations and, in order to facilitate the
linkage of financial resources to the achievement of strategic goals,
the budget justification is structured in the same manner. There are 11
strategies for the five operations. In FY 2006, the Commission met or
exceeded most of the performance goals.
As presented in the Commission's Strategic Plan, there are five
major operations that serve the Commission's external customers:
Import Injury Investigations: These cover the conduct of the
Commission's countervailing duty, antidumping, and sunset review
investigations (collectively known as Title VII investigations),
safeguards and market disruption investigations, and appellate
litigation of challenges to the Commission's determinations.
Intellectual Property-Based Import Investigations: These cover the
conduct of the Commission's adjudicatory investigations (referred to as
section 337 investigations) regarding alleged unfair methods of
competition and unfair acts in the importation of goods into the United
States and most frequently involve allegations of patent or trademark
infringement.
Industry and Economic Analysis: This covers all activities related
to the acquisition, maintenance, and application of analytical and
technical trade expertise. This expertise is applied through studies
regarding the performance and global competitiveness of various U.S.
industries, the impact of changes in trade policy on the overall economy
or subsets thereof, trade and competitiveness issues, and the probable
economic effect of tariff reductions and trade agreements.
Trade Information Services: This covers a wide range of activities
that provide Commission staff, the Congress, the Executive Branch, and
the general public with reliable and timely trade information and
analysis.
Trade Policy Support: This covers direct support activities for
policy makers such as the provision of technical expertise and objective
information on trade issues to congressional committees and members'
offices, the United States Trade Representative, interagency committees,
and U.S. delegations to multilateral organizations.
All of these operations define the output of the Commission,
emphasizing the benefits that the Commission provides in facilitating an
open trading system based on the rule of law and economic self-interest.
Within each operation, specific critical success indicators and
strategic goals are identified. The Commission's Strategic Plan,
Performance Accountability Report, and Budget Justification are
available at http://www.usitc.gov.
Pursuant to section 175 of the Trade Act of 1974, the budget
estimates for the Commission are transmitted to Congress without
revision by the President.

Public Laws 99-500, 101-208, and 102-221 established the James
Madison Memorial Fellowship Foundation to operate a fellowship program
to encourage graduate study of the framing, principles, and history of
the American Constitution. Appropriations of $10 million in 1988 and
1989 established the foundation's trust fund. The funds have been
invested by the Secretary of the Treasury in U.S. Treasury securities,
and the interest earned on these funds is available for carrying out the
activities of the foundation. Funds raised from private sources and the
surcharges from commemorative coin sales are also placed in the trust
fund.
The foundation is authorized to award graduate fellowships of up to
$24,000 to high school teachers of American history, American
government, and social studies. College seniors and recent college
graduates who want to become secondary school teachers of these subjects
are also eligible.
Fellowship awards.--This activity is comprised of fellowship awards
to cover educational expenses. It also supports the foundation's annual
Summer Institute on the U.S. Constitution, which all current fellows are
required to attend. The Institute is an intensive educational experience
that will ensure that all fellows know the history of the framing,
ratification, and implementation of the U.S. Constitution and the Bill
of Rights.
Program administration.--This activity covers the costs of planning,
fund-raising, and the operation of the fellowship program.

Established by the Civil Service Reform Act of 1978, the Board
serves as guardian of the Federal Government's merit-based system of
employment, principally by hearing and deciding appeals from Federal
employees of removals and other major personnel actions. The Board also
hears and decides other types of civil service cases, reviews
regulations of the Office of Personnel Management (OPM), and conducts
studies of the merit systems. The intended results (outcomes) of the
Merit Systems Protection Board's (MSPB) efforts are to assure that 1)
personnel actions taken involving employees are processed within the
law, and 2) actions taken by OPM and other agencies support and enhance
Federal merit principles.
The number of decisions issued by the Board is shown in the
following table:

The U.S. Institute for Environmental Conflict Resolution is a
Federal program established by P.L. 105-156 to assist parties in
resolving environmental, natural resource, and public lands conflicts.
The Institute is part of the Morris K. Udall Foundation, and serves as
an impartial, non-partisan institution providing professional expertise,
services, and resources to all parties involved in such disputes. The
Institute helps parties determine whether collaborative problem solving
is appropriate for specific environmental conflicts, how and when to
bring all the parties to the table, and whether a third-party
facilitator or mediator might be helpful in assisting the parties in
their efforts to reach consensus or to resolve
[[Page 1093]]
the conflict. In addition, the Institute maintains a roster of qualified
facilitators and mediators with substantial experience in environmental
conflict resolution, and can help parties in selecting an appropriate
neutral. (See www.ecr.gov for more information about the Institute.)

The National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) manages the
Government's archives and records, and operates Presidential Libraries.
Records services.--This program provides for selecting, preserving,
describing, and making available to the public, scholars, and Federal
agencies the permanently valuable historical records of the Federal
Government and the historical materials and Presidential records in
Presidential Libraries; for preparing related publications and exhibit
programs; and for conducting the appraisal of all Federal records. This
program also funds a records declassification program and the
Information Security Oversight Office, established by Executive Orders
12829, 12958, and 13142.
Archives related services.--This activity provides for the
publication of the Federal Register, the Code of Federal Regulations,
the U.S. Statutes-at-Large, and Presidential documents, and for a
program to improve the public's access to regulations.
Archives II facility.--Construction costs of the Archives II
facility are financed by $302 million of federally guaranteed debt
issued in 1989. Since 1994 and continuing in 2008, the Archives seeks
appropriations for the annual payments for interest and redemption of
debt to be made under the contract for construction and related
services.
NARA's Records Services program received an ``Adequate'' PART
performance rating. NARA has continued to refine performance measures
related to records management and to better engage Federal agencies on
best records management practices.

NARA is building an Electronic Records Archives (ERA) that will both
transition NARA into electronic management of all government records and
ensure the preservation of and access to Government electronic records.
Rapid obsolescence of the digital formats in which electronic records
are created threatens to make them inaccessible within a few years even
if they are preserved intact. As NARA's strategic response to meeting
these challenges, ERA will preserve electronic records in a manner that
enables requesters to access them on computer systems now and in the
future. The ERA system will also, for the first time, automate basic
functions in the lifecycle management of Federal records, including
records scheduling and appraisal, and transfer of both electronic and
non-electronic records to the National Archives, Presidential Libraries
and Federal Records Centers.
Requested funding in 2008 will support continuation of work on
development of the first ERA increment, operation and support for that
increment, an increase in the number of Federal agencies using the
system, and the development of the second ERA increment. The first
increment will be completed by addition of operational capability for
automated scheduling and appraisal of Federal records. The second
increment will add the ability to search the content of electronic
records in the system and address additional requirements related to
preserving and managing classified electronic records in the National
Archives and the future George W. Bush Presidential Library. A detailed
plan of expenditure for system acquisition in 2008 will be included with
NARA's 2008 budget justification.

The Commission has been responsible for developing plans and
recommendations for meeting the library and information needs of the
Nation, for coordinating Federal, State, and local activities to meet
these needs, for advising the President and the Congress on
implementation of national and international library and information
services policies. The Budget would complete the transition of the
Commission's functions and activities into the Institute of Museum and
Library Services, as described in the 2007 President's Budget. The
Administration believes that this move would streamline Federal library
policy efforts and strengthen our national research capacity on domestic
and international library trends.

Federal credit unions are privately owned, cooperative associations
organized for the purpose of promoting thrift among their members and
creating a source of credit for provident and productive purposes.
The National Credit Union Administration (NCUA), through its
operating fund, conducts activities prescribed by the Federal Credit
Union Act of 1934, as amended, which include: (a) chartering new Federal
credit unions; (b) determining field of membership of Federal credit
unions; (c) promulgating rules and regulations; (d) performing
regulatory and safety and soundness examinations; and (e) conducting
administrative activities of the share insurance fund.
The NCUA funds its activities through assessments levied on all
federally chartered credit unions, as well as funds drawn from the
balance of the National Credit Union Share Insurance Fund as
reimbursement for administrative activities.
In 2006, NCUA chartered seven new Federal credit unions bringing the
total number of Federal credit unions, as of September 30, 2006, to
5,255 with total assets of over $389 billion. In 2005, a PART analysis
of NCUA's oversight of Federal credit unions has shown that it
contributes to the safety and soundness of the credit union industry.

The National Credit Union Share Insurance Fund (NCUSIF) provides
insurance for deposits in member accounts (shares) in Federal credit
unions and State-chartered credit unions that apply and qualify for
insurance, as authorized by Public Law 91-468.
Activities of the NCUSIF consist of: (a) providing member account
insurance to at least $100,000; (b) providing cash and other assistance
to insured credit unions in order to avoid insolvency; and (c) providing
for liquidation or other disposition of the assets and liabilities of
insolvent insured credit unions. The NCUSIF reimburses the NCUA
operating fund for its share of the agency's administrative costs. This
reimbursement percentage, which is reviewed and adjusted annually, is 57
percent for 2006 and 53.3 percent for 2007.
As of September 30, 2006, 8,462 credit unions were insured by the
NCUSIF with insured shares of $529 billion.
Pursuant to Public Law 98-369, each insured credit union is required
to deposit and maintain in the NCUSIF one percent of its member share
accounts. The fund is structured to be entirely self supporting through
the monies paid by member credit unions. The monies received plus the
income generated from investments are expected to cover all
administrative and financial costs, as well as increase the fund balance
proportionate to insured share growth. In addition, the NCUSIF has $100
million in borrowing authority from the Treasury for use in unforeseen
emergencies.
The Credit Union Membership Access Act of 1998 (CUMAA) requires the
NCUA Board to set a Normal Operating Level (equity ratio) for the NCUSIF
between 1.2 and 1.5 percent. The equity ratio is defined as the total
balance of the NCUSIF less unreserved contingent liabilities divided by
the total amount of insured shares at year end. For 2006, the Board set
the Normal Operating Level at 1.3 percent prior to the beginning of the
calendar year.
In accordance with the CUMAA, NCUA is required to collect a premium
from insured credit unions if the equity ratio
[[Page 1101]]
falls below 1.2 percent of insured shares. In 2006, the income generated
from the required one-percent deposit explained above eliminated the
need to assess a premium. For 2007 and 2008, NCUA does not anticipate a
premium assessment, although the Board may assess a premium if the
equity ratio falls below 1.3 percent.
The Federal Deposit Insurance Reform Act of 2005 and the Federal
Deposit Insurance Reform Conforming Amendments Act of 2005 changed the
agency's share insurance rule. In this regard, effective April 1, 2006,
the revised rule: 1) defines the ``standard maximum share insurance
amount'' as $100,000 and provides that beginning in 2010, and in each
subsequent 5-year period thereafter, NCUA and the Federal Deposit
Insurance Corporation will jointly consider if an inflation adjustment
is appropriate to increase that amount; 2) increases the share insurance
limit for certain retirement accounts from $100,000 to $250,000, subject
to the above inflation adjustments; and 3) provides pass-through
coverage to each participant of an employee benefit plan, but limits the
acceptance of shares in an employee benefit plan to insured credit
unions that are well or adequately capitalized.
In 2006, a PART assessment rated the Share Insurance Fund as a
``Moderately Effective'' program. The NCUSIF was judged to be well
managed and sound. A noteworthy area for enhancement that the PART
review identified involved statutory limitations preventing
implementation of a more fully risk-based capital structure under prompt
corrective action.

The National Credit Union Central Liquidity Facility was established
under Public Law 95-630 and provides loans to member credit unions for
seasonal and emergency needs.
The two primary sources of funds for the Facility are stock
subscriptions from credit unions and borrowings from the Federal
Financing Bank. Credit unions that choose to become members of the
Facility are required to purchase stock equal to one-half of one percent
of their paid-in and unimpaired capital and surplus. One-half of the
subscription in stock is transferred to the Facility. The remaining half
of the subscription remains on call.

The Community Development Credit Union Revolving Loan Fund (CDRLF)
was established by the Congress in 1979 under Section 130(e) of the
Federal Credit Union Act to support credit unions that serve low-income
communities. Public Law 99-609, enacted on November 6, 1986, transferred
the CDRLF from the Department of Health and Human Services to NCUA.
The CDRLF provides loans and technical assistance grants to
qualifying credit unions with a low-income designation. The NCUA
disbursed loans of $2,879,000 in 2006 and anticipates approving at least
$2,500,000 in 2007. In 2003, 2004, and 2005, excess market liquidity
decreased credit unions' demand for loan funds. With the increase in
market rates through 2006, credit unions' demand for low-cost funds to
expand services to low-income members has increased.
The CDRLF received $950,000 in appropriated funds in fiscal year
2006 to be used for technical assistance grants. In 2006, funds
appropriated for grants, supplemented by CDRLF investment income, were
used to fund 286 grants totaling $973,445. Technical assistance grants
are made to low-income credit unions to help them improve the financial
condition of their credit unions, provide financial services to members,
and stimulate economic activities in the communities served.
A PART analysis of the CDRLF program has shown that it is well
designed to meet its objectives and effectively targets its resources.
NCUA is addressing the PART's other conclusions, which include
developing long-term performance measures to demonstrate that credit
unions serving low-income customers are contributing to increasing
income, ownership, and employment opportunities.

The National Endowment for the Arts (NEA) supports excellence in the
arts, brings the arts to all Americans, and provides leadership in arts
education. In 2008, the Budget proposes $128.4 million for grants
programs and associated costs, including Challenge America: Reaching
Every Community grants, and American Masterpieces: Three Centuries of
Artistic Genius.
Through American Masterpieces, NEA will continue to provide
Americans with the opportunity to know and experience the best of our
Nation's artistic achievements. The American Masterpieces' literary
component, the Big Read, will continue NEA's commitment to support
programs of indisputable artistic merit that engage communities large
and small in all 50 States.
NEA will support these projects with public and private partners,
including State arts agencies and regional arts organizations.
The National Foundation on the Arts and the Humanities Act of 1965,
as amended, authorizes NEA to receive money and other donated property.
Such gifts may be used, sold, or otherwise disposed of to support arts
projects and activities.
This presentation also includes the Arts and Artifacts Indemnity
Fund. The Arts and Artifacts Indemnity Act of 1975, as amended,
authorizes the Federal Council on the Arts and Humanities to enter into
indemnity agreements to cover certain eligible works of art on
exhibition in the United States or abroad. Loss or damage claims
certified by the Council are paid from this fund.

The National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH) supports educational
and scholarly activities in the humanities, preserves America's cultural
and intellectual resources, and provides opportunities for all Americans
to engage in learning in the humanities. In 2008, the agency will
continue We the People, a program designed to promote a broad
understanding of the ideas, people, and events that have shaped our
nation. Also supported is the agency's new Digital Humanities
Initiative, which encourages and funds projects that utilize or study
the impact of digital technology on the humanities. NEH also will
continue to support partnerships with state humanities councils; the
strengthening of humanities teaching and learning in the nation's
schools and higher educational institutions; efforts to preserve and
increase access to books, U.S. newspapers, documents, and other
reference materials; and museum exhibitions, documentary media projects,
and reading programs in the humanities that reach popular audiences.
Support is provided through outright grants, matching grants, and a
combination of the two. Eligible applicants include state humanities
councils, schools, higher education institutions, libraries, museums,
historical organizations, other cultural institutions, and individuals.
This presentation also includes the Gifts and Donations account. The
National Foundation on the Arts and the Humanities Act of 1965, as
amended, authorizes the Humanities Endowment to receive money and other
donated property. Such gifts may be used, sold, or otherwise disposed of
to support humanities projects and activities. Budget authority

The Board resolves representation disputes in industry, and remedies
and prevents specified unfair labor practices by employers or labor
organizations. Case intake and additional program statistics appear in
the table below.

Representation election cases:

Objection rulings......... 78 75 75
Board decisions requiring
court enforcement............. 79 86 95
Field investigation.--Charges of unfair labor practices and
petitions for elections to resolve representation disputes are
investigated by regional office personnel. Approximately 95 percent of
the unfair labor practice cases and over 88 percent of the
representation cases are closed by settlement, dismissal, or withdrawal.
The remainder are prepared for public hearing. The agency strives to
maximize the voluntary settlement of all cases and to avoid litigation.
Administrative law judge hearing.--Administrative law judges conduct
public hearings in unfair labor practice cases. Their findings and
recommendations are set forth in their decisions.
Board adjudication.--In an unfair labor practice case, a judge's
decision becomes a Board order if no exceptions are
[[Page 1107]]
filed. About 30 percent of these decisions become automatic Board orders
or are complied with voluntarily. The remainder, with exceptions filed,
requires contested Board decision. In representation cases, regional
directors initially decide the issues by Board delegation. The Board
itself decides representation issues on referral from regional directors
or by granting a request for review of a regional director's decision.
The Board also rules on objection and challenge questions in election
cases.
Securing compliance with Board orders.--If the parties do not
voluntarily comply with the Board's order involving unfair labor
practices, the Board must request that the appellate courts enforce its
decisions.

Mediatory and alternative dispute resolution (ADR) services.--The
Board mediates disputes over wages, hours, and working conditions for
some 746 rail and air carriers and approximately 795,000 employees in
the two industries.
The Board also provides technical assistance to enable labor and
industry representatives to explore informally the relevant economic and
noneconomic problems that condition collective bargaining in the
railroad and airline industries. The Board's ADR program provides
collective bargaining training, facilitation, and grievance mediation
services to the labor-management community.

Emergency disputes.--When the parties fail to resolve their disputes
through mediation, they are urged to submit their differences to
arbitration. If neither mediation nor voluntary arbitration is
successful, the President, when notified of disputes which substantially
threaten to interrupt essential service, may appoint emergency boards to
investigate and report on the dispute. Such reports usually serve as a
basis for resolving the disputes.

Arbitration under sections 3 and 7 of the Railway Labor Act.--
Railroad employee grievances resulting from disputes over the
interpretation or application of collective bargaining contracts may be
brought for settlement to the National Railroad Adjustment Board (NRAB).
The divisions of the Board are composed of an equal number of carrier
and union representatives compensated by the party or parties they
represent. Public Law 89-456 provides for the adjustment of disputes
involving grievances resulting from interpretation or application of
bargaining agreements in the railroad industry otherwise referable to
the NRAB.
Administrative direction and support for the public law boards,
special boards of adjustment, and the NRAB are provided by Federal
employees who are compensated by the National Mediation Board.

The National Transportation Safety Board is mandated by Congress to
investigate all catastrophic transportation accidents and, therefore,
has no control over the frequency of costly accident investigations. The
emergency fund provides a funding mechanism by which periodic accident
investigation cost fluctuations can be met without delaying critical
phases of the investigations. The current balance of $2 million is
sufficient to cover unanticipated costs associated with an increased
number of accidents, and thus the Administration does not propose new
funding in 2008.

The National Veterans Business Development Corporation (NVBDC) was
established under P.L. 106-50 with the purpose of providing veterans
with access to education, access to capital and services, and access to
markets. In assessing these goals, the NVBDC has attempted to build
partnerships and conduct outreach with Federal departments and agencies,
veterans service organizations, community based organizations and
private sector corporations. NVBDC's original authorization provided for
start-up capital but directed that the organization implement a plan to
become financially self-sufficient. Consistent with this original
design, the 2008 Budget provides no new funding for NVBDC.

Established by Congress in 1978, the Neighborhood Reinvestment
Corporation (NRC) is a model of a community/public/private partnership
leveraging public funds that provides locally-driven and efficient
community development. The NRC network of partners and chartered non-
profit organizations, or NeighborWorks organizations, operates in all 50
states, the District of Columbia and Puerto Rico--in urban, suburban,
and rural communities. Over the past 30 years, the NRC network has
replicated successful neighborhood preservation projects nationwide that
focus on affordable rental housing and homeownership. NeighborWorks
organizations receive grants and programmatic support, training and
information on best practices, and access to Neighborhood Housing
Services of America, a secondary mortgage market created for the NRC
network.
NRC receives both Federal and non-Federal funding to finance its
program activities. The Budget provides $119.8 million for the program.
The following tables reflect NRC's activities related to Federal
appropriated funds and other core revenue.

Nuclear Reactor Safety.--A major part of the Nuclear Regulatory
Commission's (NRC) mission is to ensure that its licensees design,
construct, and operate civilian reactor facilities safely. The Atomic
Energy Act and the Energy Reorganization Act provide the foundation for
regulating the Nation's civilian nuclear power industry. Nuclear reactor
safety encompasses all NRC efforts to ensure that civilian nuclear
reactor facilities and research and test reactors are operated in a
manner that provides adequate protection of public health and safety and
the environment, and protects against radiological sabotage and theft or
diversion of special nuclear materials. These efforts include reactor
licensing; reactor license renewal; operator licensing; financial
assurance; inspection; performance assessment; new reactor licensing;
identification and resolution of safety issues; reactor regulatory
research; regulation development; operating experience evaluation;
incident investigation; homeland security efforts (including threat
assessment, mitigating strategies, and emergency preparedness);
emergency response; investigation of alleged wrongdoing by licensees,
applicants, contractors, or vendors; imposition of enforcement sanctions
for violations of NRC re
[[Page 1111]]
quirements; and reactor technical and regulatory training. In response
to renewed interest in building nuclear power reactors, NRC will conduct
pre-licensing and licensing reviews and will develop necessary
regulatory infrastructure to support these reviews. NRC participates in
international safety support activities, including some that support the
Agency's domestic mission and others that support broader U.S. national
interests. These activities include international policy formulation,
treaty implementation, international information exchange, international
safety and safeguard assistance, and deterring nuclear proliferation.
NRC will continue to maintain an effective security and safeguards
program for civilian reactor facilities and address any significant
weaknesses.
Nuclear Materials and Waste Safety.--Nuclear materials safety
encompasses all NRC efforts to ensure that NRC-regulated aspects of
nuclear fuel cycle facilities and nuclear materials activities are
handled in a manner that provides adequate protection of public health
and safety and that promotes the common defense and security, including
implementation of P.L. 109-58, the Energy Policy Act of 2005. These
efforts include licensing/certification, inspection, and enforcement
activities; import-export licensing of nuclear materials and equipment;
regulation and guidance development; nuclear materials research;
identification and resolution of safety and safeguard issues; improved
regulatory control of radiological sources; operating experience
evaluation; incident investigation; threat assessment; emergency
response; technical training; implementation of State and tribal
programs; and investigation of alleged wrongdoing by licensees,
applicants, certificate holders, and contractors.
Nuclear waste safety encompasses NRC's high-level waste regulatory
activities associated with high-level waste disposal at the potential
Yucca Mountain repository as mandated by the Nuclear Waste Policy Act of
1982, as amended, and the Energy Policy Act of 1992; NRC regulatory and
oversight activities for decommissioning, which involves safely removing
a facility from service and reducing residual radiation to a level that
permits the property to be released for unrestricted or restricted use;
oversight of certain Department of Energy radioactive waste incidental
to reprocessing to implement Section 3116 of P.L. 108-375; the safe and
secure storage and transportation of radioactive materials through the
certification of spent fuel storage containers and transportation
packages; and waste safety research. Low-level radioactive waste
activities associated with the disposal of waste are addressed in
accordance with the Low-Level Radioactive Waste Policy Act of 1980, as
amended. NRC will continue to maintain the security and safeguards
program for decommissioning reactors, spent fuel storage installations,
transportation packages, and storage cask designs.

The Office of Special Counsel (OSC): 1) investigates Federal
employee and applicant allegations of prohibited personnel practices
(including reprisal for whistleblowing) and other activities prohibited
by civil service law, and when appropriate, prosecutes before the Merit
Systems Protection Board (MSPB); 2) provides a safe channel for
whistleblowing by Federal employees and applicants; 3) enforces the
Uniform Services Employment and Reemployment Rights Act (USERRA); and 4)
advises on and enforces the Hatch Act. OSC may transmit whistleblower
allegations to the agency head concerned and require an agency
investigation. OSC then submits a report to the Congress and the
President when appropriate.
Overall in 2006, there were more than 5,722 instances for which the
assistance or action of OSC was sought by Federal employees and other
persons. Many prohibited personnel practice cases investigated by OSC
are resolved without recourse to formal proceedings before MSPB. In
2006, OSC obtained 50 favorable actions, and efforts to obtain such
negotiated resolutions will continue. In 2006, OSC also filed 6
disciplinary action complaints before MSPB in Hatch Act matters. OSC
also issued 3,004 Hatch Act advisory opinions (both written and oral) to
people who sought advice. During 2006, OSC's Disclosure Unit received
435 new disclosure matters for possible referral. The Disclosure Unit
referred matters
[[Page 1115]]
to agency heads for their review a total of 24 times during 2006 .
OSC revised its Strategic Plan for the five year period beginning in
2007. These revisions focus on developing and implementing quantifiable
performance measures tied to the agency's timeliness in handling cases,
the quality of OSC's work product and decisions, and fulfillment of
OSC's education and outreach responsibilities. The Strategic Plan
continues to emphasize cross-training and strategic management of human
capital in order for the agency and its individual units to use their
resources to maximum effect. The Special Counsel's emphasis on the
agency's expanding USERRA missions is also noted.

The Veterans Benefits Improvement Act of 2004 (P.L. 108-454)
established a demonstration project that routes approximately 150
additional USERRA claims annually to OSC for investigation rather than
the Department of Labor. This demonstration project started in February,
2005 and extends through the end of 2007. OSC has assembled a dedicated
USERRA Unit to investigate and prosecute these cases.
For 2007 and 2008, OSC projects intake for prohibited personnel
practice cases and disclosure cases will continue to increase according
to recent trends.
The funding requested for 2008 will enable OSC to maintain the
staffing level necessary to operate the agency without building up
backlogs.

The Office of the Federal Coordinator for Alaska Natural Gas
Transportation Projects was established as an independent agency in the
Executive Branch on December 13, 2006, pursuant to the Alaska Natural
Gas Pipeline Act of 2004. The Federal Coordinator is responsible for
coordinating all Federal activities for an Alaska natural gas
transportation project, including joint surveillance and monitoring with
the State of Alaska of construction of a project. An Alaska natural gas
transportation project could deliver significant natural gas supply to
the U.S. lower 48 states. Action by the State of Alaska in reaching
agreement with potential project owners as to fiscal terms is necessary
before project development can move forward. The Budget proposes $2.3
million to support the activities of this Office.

The Postal Reorganization Act of 1970, Public Law 91-375, converted
the Post Office Department into the U.S. Postal Service, an independent
establishment within the executive branch. The Postal Service commenced
operations July 1, 1971. This agency is charged with providing patrons
with reliable mail service at reasonable rates and fees.
The U.S. Postal Service is governed by an 11-member Board of
Governors, including nine Governors appointed by the President, a
Postmaster General who is selected by the Governors, and a Deputy
Postmaster General who is selected by the Governors and the Postmaster
General.
Effective in 1986, the Postal Service Fund (Fund) was included in
the congressional and executive budget process and taken into account in
making calculations under the Balanced Budget and Emergency Deficit
Control Act of 1985 (Gramm-Rudman-Hollings). The Omnibus Budget
Reconciliation Act of 1989 amended title 39 of the U.S. Code by adding a
new section, 2009a, which provides that, beginning in 1990, the receipts
and disbursements of the Fund shall not be considered as part of the
congressional and executive budget process and shall not be taken into
account in making calculations under Gramm-Rudman-Hollings.
Programs.--Included are all postal activities providing window
services; processing, delivery, and transportation of mail; research and
development; administration of postal field activities; and associated
expenses of providing facilities and financing.
In December 2002, the President's Commission on the United States
Postal Service was created to recommend legislative and administrative
steps necessary to effect reforms needed to meet the challenges faced by
the Postal Service and ensure the viability of postal services
(Executive Order 13278, December 11, 2002). A series of public meetings
were held and a wide range of postal stakeholders from postal unions and
management associations, the mailing industry, competitors, academics
and economists were heard. In July 2003, a final report was issued to
the President containing recommendations for changes the Commission
deems necessary to protect the nation's access to affordable, universal
mail service long into the future.
On December 20, 2006, the President signed P.L. 109-435, the Postal
Accountability and Enhancement Act. The Act made a number of changes
affecting the operations and oversight of the Postal Service, many of
which are consistent with the recommendations of the President's
Commission. The Act provided for separate accounting and reporting for
Postal Service activities related to: (1) products where the Postal
Service dominates the market; and (2) products where the Postal Service
is in a competitive market. (Due to the recent enactment of the
legislation, the Budget does not yet reflect the separation of the two
activities.) The Act amended the process for determining rate increases
for market-dominant products, in part by imposing a limitation on rate
increases for at least the next 10 years linked to the Consumer Price
Index. This will provide the Postal Service with pricing flexibility and
ratepayers with a degree of rate predictability. The Act also replaced
the Postal Rate Commission with a Postal Regulatory Commission with
expanded authorities, including subpoena powers.
Financing.--The activities of the U.S. Postal Service are financed
from the following sources: (1) mail and services revenue; (2)
reimbursements from Federal and non-Federal sources; (3) proceeds from
borrowing; (4) interest from U.S. securities and other investments; and
(5) appropriations by the Congress. All receipts and deposits are made
to the Postal Service Fund and are available without fiscal year
limitation for payment of all expenses incurred, retirement of
obligations, investment in capital assets, and investment in obligations
and securities.
Separate legislation also increased the Postal Service's statutory
borrowing authority beginning in 1991. Section 2005 of title 39, United
States Code, as amended, increased the Postal Service's borrowing
authority by $2.5 billion in 1991 for a revised ceiling of $12.5 billion
and an additional $2.5 billion in 1992 for a revised total ceiling of
$15 billion. The total annual increase in net outstanding debt was also
increased to annually grow by up to $2.0 billion in obligations issued
for the purpose of capital improvements and by $1.0 billion for the
purpose of paying operating expenses. P.L. 109-435 removed the separate
limitations on borrowing for capital improvements and operating expenses
so that under the $15 billion debt cap, the annual increase in
outstanding debt cannot now exceed a combined total of $3.0 billion. As
of September 30, 2008, it is expected that the total debt instruments
issued and outstanding pursuant to this authority will amount to $3.4
billion.
Operating.--Estimated revenue will total approximately $78.4 billion
in 2008. This includes $77.8 billion from mail and services revenue,
$500 million from investment income, and $89 million for revenue
foregone appropriations in 2008. Total expenses are estimated at
approximately $78.7 billion in 2008.
The Postal Reorganization Act of 1970 established the Postal Service
as a fully self-sufficient, independent entity. Postal revenues were to
cover the full costs of postal operations.
[[Page 1118]]
When the Act was passed, the Postal Service received substantial
taxpayer subsidies, both appropriated and unappropriated. Consistent
with the intent of the 1970 Act, the Congress has taken steps over time
to reduce these subsidies, particularly by requiring the Postal Service
to assume greater portions of its personnel-related costs. At the end of
2006, the Postal Service employed 796,199 persons, and is the Nation's
second largest employer. Under the 1974 Civil Service Retirement Fund
Postal Employee Benefits Act, the Postal Service assumed responsibility
for paying unfunded retirement costs from wage schedule increases under
postal labor contracts. These costs are not covered by normal employee/
employer contributions to the retirement fund. The 1985 Reconciliation
Act shifted responsibility for paying health benefit costs of Postal
annuitants retiring after 1986 from the Office of Personnel Management
(OPM) to the Postal Service. The 1987 Reconciliation Act had the Postal
Service make one-time payments to defray annuitant health benefit costs
in 1988 and 1989 and retirement COLA costs in 1988. (Retirement COLAs,
like wage schedule increases, result in retirement liabilities not
covered by normal retirement fund contributions.) Under the 1989
Reconciliation Act, the Postal Service assumed responsibility for paying
health benefits of survivors of post-86 annuitants and unfunded
retirement COLA liabilities for post-86 annuitants.
The Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1990 superseded certain
existing legislation and expanded the Postal Service's responsibility
for benefit costs of postal annuitants. Effective October 1, 1990, the
Postal Service was required to fund Civil Service Retirement System
(CSRS) COLAs and the employer's share of Federal Employees Health
Benefits Program (FEHBP) premiums for postal annuitants who retired
after June 30, 1971, and their survivors. In addition, the Postal
Service was required to fund the retroactive CSRS COLA and FEHBP premium
costs for which the Postal Service would have been liable if the
provisions of this new legislation had been in effect as of July 1,
1971.
Under the Omnibus Reconciliation Act of 1993, the Postal Service was
required to make certain payments for past COLAs and health benefits,
over and above any other payments required by law, of $693 million to
the Civil Service Retirement and Disability Fund, and $348 million to
the Employees Health Benefits Fund. These two amounts were made in three
equal annual installments, beginning in fiscal year 1996.
The Balanced Budget Act of 1997 repealed the authorization for
transitional appropriations to the Postal Service which had funded the
liabilities of the former Post Office Department to the Employees'
Compensation Fund. Effective October 1, 1997, these liabilities became
liabilities of the Postal Service payable out of the Postal Service
Fund.
Early in 2003, OPM determined that, at the then-current rate of
funding, the Postal Service would pay substantially more than needed to
fund the estimated future benefits of postal employees and retirees
participating in the Civil Service Retirement System. This projected
over-funding resulted from interest earned by the fund in excess of the
assumed statutory rate of five percent. As a result, the Administration
proposed and the Congress enacted CSRS reform legislation that was
signed by the President on April 23, 2003 (P.L. 108-18). The provisions
of P.L. 108-18 eliminate all future retirement liability payments
related to general wage increases and the retirement COLA payments. In
addition, the Postal Service funded CSRS retirement benefits at 17.4
percent of current CSRS employees' wages, beginning in May 2003. This
was a dynamic funding requirement, not a static requirement, thus
employer contributions can change based on interest earnings and amounts
that are needed to fund the full cost of the future benefit. Annually,
OPM was directed to calculate the amount of any potential supplemental
retirement liability and the Postal Service was required to fund any
such liability in annual payments through September 30, 2043.
P.L. 109-435 created the Postal Service Retiree Health Benefits Fund
to put the Postal Service on a path that fully funds its substantial
retiree (annuitant) health benefits liabilities. This new Fund receives
from the Postal Service: 1) The pension savings provided to the Postal
Service by the Postal Civil Service Retirement System Funding Reform Act
of 2003 (P.L. 108-18) that were held in escrow during 2006; 2) A 10-year
stream of payments defined within P.L 109-435 to begin the liquidation
of the Postal Services unfunded liability for post-retirement health
benefits; 3) Beginning in 2017, payments for the actuarial cost of
Postal Service contributions for the post-retirement health benefits for
its current employees; and 4) The surplus resources of the Civil Service
Retirement and Disability Fund that are not needed to finance future
retirement benefits under CSRS to current or former employees of the
Postal Service that are attributable to civilian employment with the
Postal Service, including the savings from shifting the responsibility
for retirement credit related to military service from the Postal
Service to the Treasury (effectively eliminating the need for the
dynamic CSRS funding payments and supplemental liability payments noted
in the previous paragraph). As a result of this new health benefits
financing system, the Postal Service will cease to pay annual premium
costs for its post-1971 current annuitants directly to the Employees and
Retired Employees Health Benefits Fund in 2017. Instead, these premium
payments will be paid from amounts that the Postal Service remits to
this new fund. Payments for a proportion of the premium costs of Postal
Service annuitants pre-1971 service would continue to be paid by the
General Fund of the Treasury through the Government Payment for
Annuitants, Employees Health Benefits account.

The Presidio Trust is a wholly owned Government corporation
established by the Omnibus Parks and Public Lands Management Act of 1996
(Public Law 104-333) to manage, improve, maintain and lease property in
the Presidio of San Francisco. After this former military base was
transferred to the National Park Service (NPS), the Trust was created to
take over responsibility for managing the hundreds of houses, office
buildings, and other facilities in an innovative manner that uses
private-sector resources, but is consistent with surrounding NPS lands.
This appropriation funds the operation and capital improvements of the
Trust.

All railroad retirees receive the equivalent of a social security
benefit, and they may also receive other add-ons including rail industry
pension payments, windfall payments, and supplemental annuities. Social
security benefits for former railroad employees are funded by the social
security trust funds, and rail industry pension payments are the
responsibility of the rail sector.
Under current law, a financial interchange occurs once each year
between the social security trust funds and the social security
equivalent benefit (SSEB) account. SSEB receives monthly advances from
the general fund equal to an estimate of the transfer SSEB would have
received for the previous month if the financial interchange transfers
were on a monthly basis. Advances from the previous year are repaid
annually to the general fund immediately after the financial interchange
is received. In 2006, $3,241 million was advanced and $3,250 million was
repaid.

The primary mission of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC)
is to protect investors, maintain fair, orderly, and efficient markets,
and facilitate capital formation. The Commission's major divisions
include Corporation Finance, which ensures that investors are provided
with material information in the public offering, trading, voting and
tendering of securities; Enforcement, which investigates and prosecutes
violations of the federal securities laws; Market Regulation, which
oversees self-regulatory organizations, monitors securities markets and
broker-dealer operations, and develops regulatory strategies; Investment
Management, which drafts regulations, provides interpretive advice and
reviews disclosure documents filed from investment companies and
investment advisers; and the Office of Compliance Inspections and
Examinations (OCIE), which conducts an exam program to detect violations
of the federal securities laws and evaluate internal compliance
controls.
The SEC is funded through offsetting fees collected pursuant to
section 6(b) of the Securities Act of 1933, and sections 13(e), 14(g)
and 31 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The 2008 Budget assumes
$1.1 billion in fees and proposes to allow the SEC to use $875 million
of the fee collections to finance its operations in 2008.
The Administration has conducted PARTs on Enforcement, Corporation
Finance, OCIE and Investment Management. The Commission is working to
address the PARTs' conclusions, including developing targets and
baselines for annual and long-term performance measures.

The Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (P.L. 107-204) established the Public
Company Accounting Oversight Board (PCAOB) to oversee the audit of
public companies that are subject to securities laws. PCAOB was created
to protect the interests of investors by regulating the preparation of
informative, accurate, and independent audit reports for companies whose
securities are sold to, and held by and for, public investors. Funding
for PCAOB comes from registration fees paid by public accounting firms
and accounting support fees paid by public companies.

The Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (P.L. 107-204) authorizes the
Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) to designate a private entity
as a standard setting body. This standard setting body will set
accounting principles that will be ``generally accepted'' for the
purposes of securities laws. Funding for the standard setting body comes
from Accounting Support Fees, paid by public companies. The private
entity currently designated as the standard setting body is the
Financial Accounting Standards Board.
