    Weapons activities provide for: the maintenance and refurbishment of 
nuclear weapons to sustain confidence in their safety, reliability, and 
performance; expansion of scientific, engineering, and manufacturing 
capabilities to enable certification of the enduring nuclear weapons 
stockpile; and manu

[[Page 353]]

facture of nuclear weapon components under a comprehensive test ban. 
Weapons activities also provide for continued maintenance and investment 
in the Department's enterprise of nuclear stewardship, including the 
development of a Reliable Replacement Warhead and the evolution of the 
Nuclear Weapons Complex to be more responsive and cost effective. The 
Department also supports the capability to return to underground 
testing, if so directed by the President. The major elements of the 
program include the following:

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

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

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

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

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

    Facilities and infrastructure recapitalization.--Executes a multi-
year effort to restore the physical infrastructure of the nuclear 
weapons complex and supports the responsive infrastructure requirements 
of the Nuclear Posture Review. This capital renewal and sustainability 
program focuses on deferred maintenance reduction of mission-critical 
facilities and infrastructure, disposition of excess non-process 
contaminated facilities, and construction of selected utility line 
items. The Program also is working towards institutionalizing 
responsible and accountable facility management within NNSA consistent 
with industry best practices.

    Environmental projects and operations program.--Is responsible for 
management of long-term environmental stewardship at NNSA sites. 
Activities include groundwater treatment, environmental monitoring of 
surface water, ground water, soils and landfill remedies; and reporting 
and liaison requirements for various states and surveillance/monitoring 
of contaminated, excess buildings.

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

    The mission of this program is to: 1) prevent the spread of 
materials, technology, and expertise relating to weapons of mass 
destruction; 2) advance the technologies to detect the proliferation of 
weapons of mass destruction (WMD) worldwide; 3) and eliminate or secure 
inventories of surplus materials and infrastructure usable for nuclear 
weapons. The program addresses the danger that hostile nations or 
terrorist groups may acquire WMD or weapons-usable material, dual-use 
production technology or weapons of mass destruction expertise. The 
major elements of the program include the following:

    Nonproliferation and verification research and development conducts 
long-term research and development leading to prototype demonstrations 
and detection systems for strengthening U.S. capabilities to respond to 
current and projected threats to national and homeland security posed by 
the proliferation of nuclear weapons and diversion of special nuclear 
material. The program interfaces directly with NNSA and other Department 
of Energy (DOE) programs as well as other U.S. Government agencies to 
provide innovative tools, techniques, technologies, and capabilities to 
meet their nonproliferation, counter-proliferation, and counter-
terrorism mission requirements.

    Nonproliferation and international security efforts control export 
of items and controls technology useful for (WMD); continue an augmented 
export control cooperation program involving emerging suppliers and 
high-traffic transit states; break up proliferation networks and improve 
international export control guidelines; develop verification 
technologies for countries of proliferation concern; implement 
international safeguards in conjunction with the International Atomic 
Energy Agency (IAEA); develop and implement policy in support of global 
nonproliferation regime; serve as the technical edge within the 
interagency for various interdiction activities; develop and implement 
transparency measures to ensure that nuclear materials are secure; 
develop and implement innovative approaches to improve regional 
security, help to transition WMD scientific communities in high-risk 
nations, and conduct international emergency management and cooperation 
activities. The Highly Enriched Uranium (HEU) Transparency and 
Implementation and the Global Initiatives for Proliferation Prevention 
programs have been incorporated into Nonproliferation and International 
Security.

    International nuclear materials protection and cooperation continues 
to improve the security of nuclear material and nuclear warheads in 
Russia and other counties of proliferation concern by installing basic 
rapid upgrades and thorough comprehensive upgrades. Reducing the 
potential for diversion of nuclear warheads and nuclear materials has 
been a critical priority for the United States. Russia and the United 
States have expanded cooperation in this area significantly to include 
Strategic Rocket Forces and 12th Main Directorate sites containing 
nuclear warheads. The United States, through DOE/NNSA's Second Line of 
Defense Program, will continue to work with international partners to 
enhance their capabilities to detect, deter, and interdict illicit 
trafficking in nuclear and other radioactive materials, including the 
screening of containerized cargo at strategic international seaports.

    Elimination of weapons-grade plutonium production enhances nuclear 
nonproliferation by assisting Russia in ceasing its production of 
weapons-grade plutonium production by providing replacement power 
production capacity. This will result in the shutdown of the world's 
last three plutonium producing reactors, and eliminate the production of 
1.2 metric tons of plutonium per year.

    Fissile materials disposition conducts activities in both the United 
States and Russia to dispose of fissile materials that would pose a 
threat to the United States if acquired by hostile nations or terrorist 
groups. The program focuses U.S. efforts to accomplish the Plutonium 
Management and Disposition Agreement between the United States and 
Russia, which commits both countries to dispose of 34 metric tons of 
surplus weapons-grade plutonium; and separate efforts to down blend 
surplus U.S. highly enriched uranium.

    Global threat reduction initiative removes and/or secures high-risk 
nuclear radiological materials and equipment around the world that pose 
a threat to the United States and the international community; addresses 
all vulnerable materials removal and radioactive source security and 
recovery; targets research reactors and medical isotopes production 
processes worldwide for conversion to suitable Low-Enriched Uranium 
(LEU) fuels and targets; eliminates stockpiles of Russian-origin and 
U.S.-origin spent nuclear fuel in foreign research reactors through 
repatriation of such material to Russia and the United States; prevents 
proliferation of nuclear weapons by securing nearly three tons of 
weapons-grade plutonium in the BN-350 breeder reactor at Aktau, 
Kazakhstan; purchases Russian HEU fuel for use in U.S. research 
reactors; identifies, recovers, and stores, on an interim-basis, certain 
domestic radioactive sealed sources, and other radiological materials 
that pose a security risk to the United States and/or world community; 
reduces the international threat posed by radiological materials that 
could be used in a radiological dispersal device (RDD) or ``dirty 
bomb.''

Defense Environmental Cleanup appropriation as a result of a budget 
restructuring in 2006. The Defense Environmental Cleanup program is 
responsible for identifying and reducing risks and managing waste at 
sites where the Department carried out defense-related nuclear research 
and production activities that resulted in radioactive, hazardous, and 
mixed waste contamination requiring remediation, stabilization, or some 
other type of cleanup action. The Budget displays the cleanup program by 
site.

    Closure sites.--Funds geographic sites that are nearing cleanup 
completion or have completed cleanup and are awaiting transfer to the 
Office of Legacy Management or other DOE program or private sector 
entity. The sites contained in this budget include Ashtabula, Columbus, 
Fernald, Miamisburg (Mound), and Rocky Flats. Closure and post-closure 
activities will include final contract fee payments for project physical 
completion, and work to cover any potential gap between Environmental 
Management (EM) acceptance of the contractor's declaration of physical 
completion and the date EM transfers site custodianship to another 
entity.

    Hanford site.--Funds the Hanford site cleanup and environmental 
restoration to protect the Columbia River. Because of the immensity of 
the cleanup program at the Hanford site, the cleanup is managed by two 
site offices: the Richland Operations Office and the Office of River 
Protection.

    The Hanford site (Richland) is responsible for cleanup of most of 
the geographic area on the Hanford site, and its projects are displayed 
in two accounts: projects to be completed by 2012 and projects to be 
completed before 2035. The primary cleanup focus is the safe storage, 
treatment and disposal of Hanford's legacy wastes and environmental 
restoration. Risk to the public, workers, and the environment will be 
reduced by removing contamination before it migrates to the Columbia 
River.

    The Office of River Protection at the Hanford site is responsible 
for the storage, retrieval, treatment, immobilization, and disposal of 
tank waste and the operation, maintenance, engineering, and construction 
activities in the 200 Area Tank Farms. Its budget has two components, 
the operation and maintenance of radioactive liquid waste tank farms and 
construction of the Waste Treatment and Immobilization Plant.

    Idaho.--Funds the Idaho Cleanup Project, which is aimed at reducing 
the risk of contamination reaching the Snake River Plain Aquifer from 
nuclear and hazardous waste buried or stored on-site. It also funds 
efforts to eliminate infrastructure costs by aggressively conducting 
cleanup operations to reduce the site ``footprint''; stabilize legacy 
spent nuclear fuel through 2012; and treat and dispose of the sodium 
bearing tank wastes, close tank farms, perform initial tank soils 
remediation work as well as preparation of the stored high-level waste 
calcine for final disposition.

    NNSA sites.--Funds the safe and efficient cleanup of the 
environmental legacy at the following National Nuclear Security 
Administration sites: Kansas City Plant, Lawrence Livermore National 
Laboratory--Livermore Site and Site 300, Los Alamos National Laboratory, 
Nevada Site Office, Pantex Plant, and the Separations Process Research 
Unit. The cleanup strategy is a risk-based and regulatory compliant 
approach that focuses first on those contaminant plumes and sources that 
are the greatest contributors to risk. The overall goal is to ensure 
that risks to the public and workers are controlled, followed by work to 
clean up soil and groundwater using a risk-based methodology.

[[Page 357]]

    Oak Ridge.--Funds defense-related cleanup of the three facilities 
that make up the Oak Ridge Reservation: the East Tennessee Technology 
Park, the Oak Ridge National Laboratory, and the Y-12 Plant. The overall 
cleanup strategy is based on surface water considerations, encompassing 
five distinct watersheds that feed the Clinch River. Cleanup actions 
will ensure that waste is contained; on-site surface water quality is 
improved to meet required standards; and off-site users of the Clinch 
River remain protected.

    Savannah River site.--Funds the safe stabilization, treatment, and 
disposition of legacy nuclear materials, spent nuclear fuel, and waste 
at the Savannah River site. The cleanup funding is displayed in three 
accounts: projects to be completed by 2012, projects to be completed 
before 2035, and projects related to the Radioactive Liquid Waste Tank 
Farms, including Defense Waste Processing Facility operations. The 
Savannah River cleanup strategy has four primary objectives: 1) 
eliminate the highest risks first through safe stabilization, treatment, 
and disposition of EM-owned nuclear materials, spent nuclear fuel, and 
waste; 2) significantly reduce costs of continuing operations and 
surveillance and maintenance; 3) decommission all EM-owned facilities; 
and 4) remediate groundwater and contaminated soils, using an area 
closure approach.

    Waste Isolation Pilot Plant.--Funds the Waste Isolation Pilot Plant, 
the world's first permitted deep geologic repository for the permanent 
disposal of radioactive waste, and the Nation's only disposal site for 
defense-generated transuranic waste. The Waste Isolation Pilot Plant, 
managed by the Carlsbad Field Office, is an operating facility, 
supporting the cleanup of transuranic waste from waste generator and 
storage sites. The Waste Isolation Pilot Plant is crucial to DOE 
completing its cleanup and closure mission.

    Program direction.--Funds the Federal workforce responsible for the 
overall direction and administrative support of the EM program, 
including both Headquarters and field personnel.

    Program support.--Funds EM Headquarters policy and oversight 
activities. This includes management and direction for various 
crosscutting EM and Department of Energy initiatives; establishment and 
implementation of national and departmental policy; and analyses and 
integration activities across the Department of Energy complex in a 
consistent, responsible and efficient manner.

    Safeguards and security.--Funds activities to ensure protection 
against unauthorized access, theft, diversion, loss of custody or 
destruction of Department of Energy assets and hostile acts that may 
cause adverse impacts on fundamental national security or the health and 
safety of Department of Energy and contractor employees, the public or 
the environment.

    Technology development and deployment.--Funds projects to address 
the immediate, near- and long-term technology needs identified by the EM 
sites, enabling them to accelerate their cleanup schedules, treat 
orphaned wastes, improve worker safety, and provide technical 
foundations for the sites' end state visions.

    Federal contribution to the Uranium Enrichment Decontamination and 
Decommissioning Fund.--Funds the Federal Government's contribution to 
the Uranium Enrichment Decontamination and Decommissioning Fund, as 
required by the Energy Policy Act of 1992.

    Health, Safety and Security.--The Office of Health, Safety, and 
Security (HSS) provides corporate-level leadership and management to 
protect the health, safety, and security of the Department's workers, 
the public, and the environment. HHS was formed on October 1, 2006, to 
strengthen the Department's health, safety, and security functions by 
integrating the activities of the former Offices of Environment, Safety, 
and Health and Security and Safety Performance Assurance. HHS functions 
include: policy and guidance development and technical assistance; 
analysis of environment, safety, health, and security performance; 
health studies; screening programs for former workers; employee 
compensation support; corporate safety-based quality assurance programs; 
safety and security education and training; interface with the Defense 
Nuclear Facilities Safety Board; identifying and managing the deployment 
of advanced security technologies; classification and declassification 
of national security information; providing for the security of the 
Department's facilities in the National Capital Area; independent 
oversight of security, cyber security, emergency management, 
environment, safety and health performance; and implementing safety and 
security enforcement programs.

     Office of Legacy Management (Defense).--The programs support 
defense-related, long-term stewardship activities (e.g., groundwater 
monitoring, disposal cell maintenance, records management, and 
management of natural resources) at sites where active remediation has 
been completed. In addition, LM is responsible for the management and 
administration of pension and benefit continuity for contractor retirees 
at these sites.

    All other.--Obligations are included for defense-related 
administrative support, defense-related activities at Idaho National 
Laboratory (INL), and the Office of Hearings and Appeals. 
Responsibilities of the Office of Hearings and Appeals include 
adjudications of matters involving DOE and contractor employees' 
eligibility for security clearances, and appeals of adverse 
determinations under the Freedom of Information and Privacy Acts. The 
Office of Hearings and Appeals adjudicates complaints of reprisals by 
contractor employees for ``whistleblowing'', and is the appeal authority 
in many other areas. The Office also decides requests for exception from 
DOE orders, rules, and regulations.

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

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

    Since passage of the Nuclear Waste Policy Act of 1982, as amended, 
amounts have been deposited into the Nuclear Waste Fund for costs for 
activities related to disposal of high-level waste generated from the 
atomic energy defense activities of DOE. At the end of 2006, the balance 
owed by the Federal Government to the Nuclear Waste Fund was 
approximately $580 million (including principal and interest). The 
Defense Nuclear Waste Disposal appropriation was established to ensure 
payment of the Federal Government's contribution to the nuclear waste 
repository program. Through 2006, a total of approximately $2,969 
million has been appropriated to support nuclear waste repository 
activities attributed to atomic energy defense activities.

    High energy physics.--The high energy physics (HEP) research program 
focuses on gaining insights into the fundamental constituents of matter, 
the fundamental forces in nature, and the mysterious forms of unseen 
energy and matter that dominate the universe. The program encompasses 
both experimental and theoretical particle physics research and related 
advanced accelerator and detector technology research

[[Page 360]]

and development (R&D). The primary mode of experimental research 
involves the study of collisions of energetic particles using large 
particle accelerators or colliding beam facilities.

    In addition to contributing to breakthrough discoveries such as the 
existence of the invisible ``dark energy'' that permeates empty space, 
state-of-the-art technology developed for accelerators and detectors 
contributes to progress in fields such as fast electronics, high-speed 
computing, superconducting magnet technology, and high-power radio 
frequency devices. HEP research also continues to make major 
contributions to accelerator technology and provides the expertise 
necessary for the expansion of such technology into fields such as 
medical imaging and diagnostics, and materials, biology, and chemistry 
research using light sources.

    The HEP budget request will support the continued operation of the 
Department's major HEP facilities: the Fermilab Tevatron Collider and 
Neutrinos at the Main Injector (NuMI) and the Stanford Linear 
Accelerator Center B-Factory. In addition, funding is provided for the 
Large Hadron Collider research program for commissioning, maintenance, 
and operations of U.S.-supplied components, and software and computing 
infrastructure for data analysis as the Large Hadron Collider begins 
operations in 2008.

     The HEP request also develops the most compelling new scientific 
opportunities for the U.S. HEP program in the next decade, including $60 
million of R&D for a potential international linear collider, enabling a 
U.S. leadership role in a comprehensive, coordinated international R&D 
program. While the future trajectory of the HEP program has a strong 
emphasis on linear collider R&D, it will also provide a diverse array of 
other world-leading efforts, including the understanding of dark energy, 
strong U.S. participation in Large Hadron Collider physics, and 
forefront neutrino experiments and facilities. Accelerator technology 
R&D will be increasingly focused on superconducting radio frequency 
structures in view of their potentially wide applicability to many 
scientific disciplines.

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

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

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

    The Thomas Jefferson National Accelerator Facility/Continuous 
Electron Beam Accelerator Facility (CEBAF) experimental program will 
continue its studies focused on understanding the substructure of the 
nucleon. The doubling of the electron beam energy at CEBAF to 12 giga-
electron volts (GeV) opens the opportunity for new discoveries and an 
understanding of quark confinement--one of the mysteries of modern 
physics. Research, development, and design for the upgrade continue in 
2008. Operations of the Holifield Radioactive Ion Beam Facility at Oak 
Ridge National Laboratory and the Argonne Tandem Linear Accelerator 
System at Argonne National Laboratory will be supported for the study of 
nuclear structure and nuclear astrophysics, as will the operation of 
accelerator laboratories at universities.

    Biological and environmental research.--This program develops the 
knowledge base necessary to identify, understand, and anticipate the 
long-term health and environmental consequences of energy use and 
development and utilizes the Department's unique scientific and 
technological capabilities to solve major scientific problems in the 
environment, medicine, and biology. Planned activities include programs 
in global climate change; environmental remediation; molecular, 
cellular, and systemic studies on the biological effects of radiation; 
structural biology; medical applications of nuclear technology; and the 
Human Genome Program. The program also supports science related to 
carbon sequestration. In conjunction with the advanced scientific 
computing research program, a global systems application is continued to 
accelerate progress in coupled general circulation model development 
through use of enhanced computer simulation and modeling. The Genomics: 
GTL activity will develop the science, technology, and knowledge base to 
harness microbial and plant systems for cost effective renewable energy 
production, carbon sequestration, and environmental remediation. The 
request includes $75.0 million for Genomics: GTL Bioenergy Research 
Centers. Research at the Centers will focus on developing the science 
underpinning biofuel production.

    Basic energy sciences.--The basic energy sciences (BES) program 
funds basic research material sciences, chemistry, geosciences, and 
aspects of biosciences; supporting the Department's nuclear and non-
nuclear technology programs. The BES program supports a substantial 
basic research budget for materials sciences, chemical sciences, 
biosciences, and geosciences. The program supports a number of research 
areas that are unique within the Federal Government. In many basic 
research areas, such as materials science, funding provided by the BES 
program represents a large percentage, or even the sole source, of 
Federal funding. The request includes $59.5 million for hydrogen and 
fuel cell research as part of the President's Hydrogen Initiative as 
well as funding for basic research in other areas that support the 
Nation's energy agenda.

    The BES program operates large national user research facilities, 
including synchrotron light and neutron sources, a combustion research 
facility, and smaller user facilities such as materials preparation and 
electron microscopy centers. The request includes continued support to 
maintain utilization of the Department's large state-of-the-art national 
user facilities. Funding will maintain the quality of service and 
availability of facility resources to users, including university and 
government scientists, as well as private companies who rely on unique 
BES facilities for their basic research needs. Research areas that will 
benefit from the facilities funding include structural biology, 
materials science, superconductor technology, and medical research and 
technology development.

    The BES request includes $166.8 million for the first full year of 
operations of the Spallation Neutron Source (SNS) at Oak Ridge National 
Laboratory to meet the Nation's neutron scattering needs. The request 
includes $21.9 million to continue design and fabrication of additional 
instruments beyond the initial instrument suite included in the 
construction project. SNS will provide significant scientific, 
technical, and economic benefits that derive from neutron scattering and 
materials irradiation research. Reflecting the high priority given to 
nanoscale research, BES funding for the multi-agency national 
nanotechnology program includes funding for the operation of the 
Nanoscale Science Research Centers (NSRCs) at the Oak Ridge, Lawrence 
Berkeley, Brookhaven, and Argonne national laboratories, and for one 
NSRC collocated at

[[Page 361]]

Sandia and Los Alamos national laboratories. The request also includes 
$51.4 million for construction of the Linac Coherent Light Source at the 
Stanford Linear Accelerator Center. The BES request also includes $45 
million in design funding for the National Synchrotron Light Source II, 
$17.2 million for construction of the User Support Building at Lawrence 
Berkeley National Laboratory, and $7.4 million for design and 
construction of the Photon Engineering Laser Science and Engineering 
Building Upgrade at Stanford Linear Accelerator Center.

    Fusion energy sciences.--The mission of the fusion energy sciences 
(FES) program is the national research effort to advance plasma science, 
fusion science, and fusion technology that is the knowledge base needed 
for an economically and environmentally attractive energy source. The 
program emphasizes the underlying basic research in plasma and fusion 
sciences, with the long-term goal of harnessing fusion as a viable 
energy source. The program centers on the following goals: a predictive 
capability for key aspects of burning plasmas; progress toward 
demonstrating enhanced fundamental understanding of magnetic confinement 
through research on magnetic confinement configuration optimization; and 
progress toward developing the fundamental understanding of high energy 
density plasma physics.

    The Budget includes $160 million for the U.S. contributions to ITER 
project, an international burning plasma physics experiment that is an 
essential next step toward eventually developing fusion as a

    technology validation on advanced technologies that could enable 
    future biorefineries to sustainably and economically convert 
    cellulosic biomass to fuels, chemicals, heat and power. The 
    program's goal is to help make cellulosic ethanol cost competitive 
    by 2012 using a wide array of regionally available biomass 
    resources.
        Solar energy: Through the Solar America Initiative (SAI), the 
    program will help accelerate the market competitiveness of solar 
    electricity from photovoltaic (PV) systems. SAI features a 
    competition among industry-led consortia to lower the cost of energy 
    from PV systems through manufacturing and efficiency improvements. 
    Concentrating solar power activities are focused on lowering the 
    cost of solar power using centralized generation and development of 
    thermal storage to provide power on demand.
        Wind energy: This program develops technology in partnership 
    with industry to allow wind power to be cost-competitive in more 
    prevalent, lower-wind speed areas. The program also supports 
    activities to reduce barriers to electric grid integration and 
    technology acceptance.
        Vehicle technologies: This program supports the FreedomCAR and 
    Fuel Partnership and the 21st Century Truck Partnership with 
    industry. Program activities encompass a suite of technologies 
    needed for hybrid, plug-in hybrid, and fuel cell vehicles, including 
    lightweight materials, electronic power control and electric drive 
    motors, and advanced energy storage devices. This program also

    engines, using fuels with formulations developed for such engines, 
    and incorporating non-petroleum based components. In general, 
    program R&D seeks technology breakthroughs that will enable 
    America's highway transportation to greatly reduce petroleum use. 
    The program also includes community-based outreach via Clean Cites 
    coalitions, competitive awards, and other activities to facilitate 
    the market adoption of alternative fuels and highly efficient 
    automotive technologies.
        Building technologies: In partnership with the buildings 
    industry, the program develops, promotes, and integrates energy 
    technologies and practices to make buildings more efficient and 
    affordable. The Building Technologies program accelerates the 
    availability of highly efficient building tech

[[Page 363]]

    nologies and practices through research and development; increases 
    the minimum efficiency of buildings and equipment through building 
    codes, appliance standards, and guidelines; and encourages the use 
    of energy-efficient and renewable energy technologies and practices 
    in residential and commercial buildings.
        Industrial technologies: The program funds cost-shared research 
    in critical technology areas identified in partnership with 
    industry. It also funds energy audits and training programs to help 
    U.S. industrial firms reduce their energy use. The program targets 
    energy efficiency research opportunities in manufacturing processes 
    and crosscutting energy systems as well as accelerating new-term 
    market adoption of emerging technologies.
        Distributed energy resources: As directed by the Congress in the 
    2006 appropriation conference report, this program has been 
    transferred to the Office of Electricity Delivery and Energy 
    Reliability.
        Federal energy management program: This program reduces the cost 
    and environmental impact of the Federal Government's energy use by 
    advancing energy efficiency, water conservation and renewable energy 
    in Federal facilities, including DOE facilities.
        Facilities and infrastructure: The Budget includes funding for 
    general plant projects and general purpose equipment at the National 
    Renewable Energy Laboratory.
        Weatherization and intergovernmental activities: The 
    Weatherization Assistance Program improves the energy efficiency of 
    homes of low income families by providing formula grants and 
    technical assistance to State and local weatherization agencies. The 
    State Energy Program provides financial assistance to States through 
    formula and, in 2008, competitive grants, enabling States to 
    individually tailor energy efficiency projects to local needs. The 
    Tribal Energy Program helps Tribal leaders develop energy plans and 
    incorporate renewable energy technologies on Tribal lands. The 
    Renewable Energy Production Incentive provides financial incentive 
    payments to State and local governments and non-profit cooperatives 
    generating electricity through renewable technologies. The Asia 
    Pacific Partnership encourages clean energy technology development 
    and deployment in Australia, Japan, South Korea, China, and India.

spent nuclear fuel, reduce the long-term proliferation threat posed by 
civilian inventories of plutonium in spent fuel, and recover the energy 
content in spent nuclear fuel in a manner that enhances proliferation-
resistance. The Budget also supports the Generation IV Nuclear Energy 
Systems Initiative, where the United States will participate in multi-
nation research and development projects in support of next-generation 
nuclear reactors and fuel cycles. The Department supports the Nuclear 
Hydrogen Initiative, which will develop advanced technologies that can 
be used in tandem with Generation IV nuclear plants to generate 
economic, commercial quantities of hydrogen to support a sustainable, 
clean energy future for the United States.

    Nuclear Energy programs support the Department's critical 
infrastructure necessary to enable research on advanced nuclear power 
systems for U.S. national security and other federal agencies, to 
support the production of radioisotopes for medical and other research 
purposes, and to maintain and operate the Department's nuclear 
facilities, in a safe, environmentally compliant and cost-effective 
manner. The Office of Nuclear Energy, budget also includes funding for 
Idaho sitewide operations and safeguards and security programs, as part 
of the Lead Program Secretarial Office responsibilities for Idaho.

    Environment, safety and health.--Prior to 2008, Environment, Safety 
and Health programs were funded in two separate accounts (Energy Supply 
and Conservation and Other Defense Activities appropriation). Beginning 
in 2008, those activities have been restructured and are now funded by 
the Health, Safety and Security Program within the Other Defense 
Activities appropriation.

    Office of Legacy Management (Non-defense).--This program supports 
non-defense related long-term stewardship activities (e.g., groundwater 
monitoring, disposal cell maintenance, and management of natural 
resources) at sites where active remediation has been completed. In 
addition, LM is responsible for the management and administration of 
pension and benefit continuity for contractor retirees at these sites.

    Non-Defense Environmental Management activities, previously funded 
in two appropriations, Non-Defense Site Acceleration Completion and Non-
Defense Environmental Services, are now funded in the Non-Defense 
Environmental Cleanup appropriation as a result of a budget 
restructuring in 2006. The Non-Defense Environmental Cleanup program 
includes funds to manage and clean up sites used for civilian energy 
research, and non-defense related activities. Past activities related to 
nuclear energy research and development resulted in radioactive, 
hazardous, and mixed waste contamination that requires remediation, 
stabilization, or some other type of action. The Budget displays the 
cleanup program by site.

    West Valley Demonstration Project.--Funding will focus on near-term 
efforts for waste disposition, process building decontamination, removal 
of non-essential facilities in the near-term, and development of the 
Decommissioning Environmental Impact Statement. West Valley 
Demonstration Project plans to achieve Interim End State completion in 
2010.

    Gaseous diffusion plants.--Funds surveillance and maintenance of 
inactive facilities and the management of the uranium hexafluoride 
cylinders at the East Tennessee Technology Park at Oak Ridge; Paducah, 
Kentucky; and Portsmouth, Ohio sites. Also included are the construction 
of two depleted uranium hexafluoride conversion facilities at Paducah 
and Portsmouth, and the accelerated cleanup of the Gas Centrifuge 
Enrichment Plant at Portsmouth.

    Fast Flux Test Facility.--Funds the long-term surveillance and 
maintenance, and eventual decontamination and decommissioning of the 
Fast Flux Test Facility, operated from the 1960s through 1980s.

    Small sites.--Funds cleanup, closure, and post-closure environmental 
activities at a number of geographic sites across the nation, including 
Argonne National Laboratory, Brookhaven National Laboratory, Energy 
Technology Engineering Center, Inhalation Toxicology Laboratory, Moab, 
and the Stanford Linear Accelerator Center. Some sites are associated 
with other Department of Energy programs, particularly the Office of 
Science, and will have continuing missions after EM completes the 
cleanup. Others are in the final stages of cleanup and closure, or have 
transitioned to post-closure activities.

Initiative providing for competitively-awarded research, development, 
and demonstration projects to reduce the barriers to continued and 
expanded coal use: Provided further, That no project may be selected for 
which sufficient funding is not available to provide for the total 
project: Provided further, That if a Clean Coal Power Initiative 
application selected after enactment of this legislation for negotiation 
under this or any other Act in any fiscal year, is not awarded within 
two years from the date the application was selected, negotiations shall 
cease and the federal funds committed to the application shall be 
retained by the Department for future coal-related research, development 
and demonstration projects, except that the time limit may be extended 
at the Secretary's discretion for matters outside the control of the 
applicant, or if the Secretary determines that extension of the time 
limit is in the public interest: Provided further, That the Secretary 
may not delegate this responsibility for applications greater than 
$10,000,000: Provided further, That financial assistance for costs in 
excess of those estimated as of the date of award of original Clean Coal 
Power Initiative financial assistance may not be provided in excess of 
the proportion of costs borne by the Government in the original 
agreement and shall be limited to 25 percent of the original financial 
assistance: Provided further, That funds shall be expended in accordance 
with the provisions governing the use of funds contained under the 
heading ``Clean Coal Technology'' in 42 U.S.C. 5903d as well as those 
contained under the heading ``Clean Coal Technology'' in prior 
appropriations: Provided further, That the Department may include 
provisions for repayment of Government contributions to individual 
projects in an amount up to the Government contribution to the project

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

    President's coal research initiative.--FutureGen is a $1 billion 
project cost-shared with the private sector and international partners, 
which will create the world's first fossil fuel fired, near-zero 
atmospheric emissions, electricity and hydrogen producing power plant. 
The Budget includes $108 million towards the Government's share for 
FutureGen. The Budget provides $73 million for the Clean Coal Power 
Initiative (CCPI), which conducts demonstration projects, cost-shared 
between the government and industry. Other supporting coal activities 
include: 1) technologies for advanced coal-fueled power systems, 
including Integrated Gasification Combined Cycle, hydrogen turbine 
technology and hydrogen

[[Page 366]]

separation technologies; 2) Sequestration R&D, which focuses on 
greenhouse gas capture and sequestration; and 3) advanced research, 
which through early concept research, bridges fundamental research and 
engineering development. The Department will continue to increase 
involvement of the private sector and academia to help conduct and 
direct research toward the most critical challenges to coal use for 
power generation in the United States.

    Fuel cells.--Fuel cells focuses on fuel cell technology for 
distributed and central power generation systems.

    Oil and gas.--The Oil and Gas programs will effect an orderly 
termination of activities. No additional funding is required for 
termination.

    Program direction and management support.--The program provides the 
funding for all headquarters and field personnel and overhead expenses 
in Fossil Energy and Clean Coal Technology. In addition, it provides 
support for day-to-day project management functions. Within this 
program, $2.3 million is proposed for the Alaska Natural Gas 
Transportation Project Loan Guarantee program activities. Also included 
is the Import/Export Authorization program which will continue 
regulatory reviews and oversight of the transmission of natural gas 
across the U.S. borders.

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

    In 2005, congressional budget subcommittees implemented a number of 
structural changes, including the unification of energy efficiency and 
renewable energy programs under a single subcommittee. Appropriations in 
2006 were enacted in accordance with this new integrated structure. 
Consequently, programs formerly funded under Energy Conservation are now 
funded through the Energy Supply and Conservation account.

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

    The 2008 Budget proposes to provide further insurance against oil 
supply disruptions that could harm the U.S. economy by doubling 
America's protection from the Strategic Petroleum Reserve (SPR) by 
expanding it from its current size of 691 million barrels (MB) to 1.5 
billion barrels. Expansion will begin immediately, with DOE using 
balances in the SPR Oil account for the purchase of oil in 2007. Federal 
royalty oil will also be used to fill the SPR in 2007 and 2008 to its 
727 MB capacity.

    The 2008 Budget proposes $168 million for construction of storage 
facilities to begin expansion of oil storage facilities from 727 MB of 
storage to 1.5 billion barrels of storage.

    The account provides for ongoing storage site operations and 
maintenance activities, planning activities, drawdown testing/readiness 
of the Reserve, planning studies, and program administration.

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

    This account provides for the acquisition, transportation, and 
injection of petroleum into SPR. This account funds all SPR petroleum 
inventory acquisitions, associated transportation costs, U.S. Customs 
duties, terminal throughput charges, incremental drawdown costs, and 
other related miscellaneous costs. In 2005, the Department filled the 
Reserve to 700 million barrels, principally using royalty oil from 
Federal offshore leases. The Petroleum Account also funds drawdown and 
sales operations of the Reserve. In September 2005, funds were 
transferred from the SPR Facilities Account to finance drawdown 
operations associated with Hurricane Katrina. The funds were returned to 
the SPR Facilities Account in 2006. DOE loaned 9.8 million barrels of 
oil to refiners and sold 11 million barrels in response to the 
hurricane. In 2007, DOE will use balances in the account to purchase 
oil.

    The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (Commission) regulates key 
interstate aspects of the electric power, natural gas, oil pipeline, and 
hydropower industries. The Commission seeks to encourage competitive 
markets whenever possible, assure access to abundant, reliable energy, 
promote the development of a strong energy infrastructure, and prevent 
market manipulation. Regulated businesses pay fees and charges 
sufficient to recover the Government's full costs of operations.

    On August 8, 2005, the Energy Policy Act of 2005 (EPAct 2005) was 
signed into law. This law made fundamental changes in Commission 
regulation by amending the major statutes implemented by the Commission: 
the Federal Power Act (FPA); the Public Utility Regulatory Policies Act 
(PURPA); the Public Utility Holding Company Act (PUHCA), the Natural Gas 
Act (NGA); and the Natural Gas Policy Act (NGPA). As noted below, the 
types of changes made by EPAct 2005 enhance the Commission's authority 
to promote development of electric and natural gas infrastructure, 
wholesale competition in the electric industry, electric and natural gas 
market transparency, and consumer protections. EPAct 2005 imposed 
several tasks and deadlines for Commission action including: mandatory 
rulemaking requirements; mandatory reports, studies, or memoranda of 
understanding (some in conjunction with other agencies); and required 
consultations with other agencies (who have the lead) on rulemakings or 
reports. EPAct 2005 also allows the Commission to undertake certain 
discretionary rulemakings or generic actions. This request includes the 
resources needed to continue implementing the Commission's increased 
responsibilities under EPAct 2005.

     Energy infrastructure.--The Commission seeks to promote the 
development of a strong energy infrastructure to meet market and 
operational demands. The Commission has two primary objectives in this 
area: stimulate appropriate infrastructure development and maintain a 
reliable and safe infrastructure.

    The Commission determines rates for the interstate transportation of 
natural gas and oil on the pipelines subject to the Commission's 
jurisdiction and rates for the interstate transmission and wholesale 
sales of electric energy. The Commission has authorized tariff 
provisions, as appropriate, to allow the gas and oil pipelines and 
public utilities to adjust their services to meet their customers' needs 
and the utilities' needs to meet competition in their respective 
markets. The Commission has developed, and will continue to develop, 
pricing policies and incentive mechanisms to encourage the development 
of the Nation's energy infrastructure and to support competitive 
markets. For example, the Commission now has guidelines for regional 
transmission organizations (RTOs) operating organized electric markets 
on providing long-term financial transmission rights. These guidelines 
will increase long-term transmission price certainty in the organized 
electricity markets and allow for new investments and other long-term 
power supply arrangements. In addition, the Commission has issued a 
final rule to offer incentives, where appropriate, for potential 
investors to build electric transmission facilities. The final rule 
seeks to bolster investment in the Nation's aging transmission 
infrastructure, promote electric power reliability and lower costs for 
consumers by reducing transmission congestion.

    EPAct 2005 granted the Commission new regulatory authority to 
promote an energy infrastructure that best serves the Nation's needs. 
For example, the new law granted the Commission, for the first time, 
siting authority to relieve congestion of certain interstate 
transmission corridors when states withhold approval for more than one 
year or do not have the authority to act on transmission proposals to 
relieve congestion. While this new authority is more limited than the 
Commission's gas pipeline siting authority, it should lower the 
regulatory barriers to investment in the transmission grid. The 
Commission has adopted rules on this new authority, and will work to 
implement it in accordance with the specific criteria established in 
EPAct 2005. Similarly, the Commission has adopted rules implementing its 
new authority to grant market-based rates for natural gas storage and, 
in November 2006, issued its first order granting such rates. With 
regard to liquefied natural gas (LNG) import terminal facilities, EPAct 
2005 clarified the Commission's exclusive jurisdiction to authorize such 
facilities to continue developing much-needed LNG import terminal 
facilities.

[[Page 370]]

    The Commission will continue to ensure that landowner and 
environmental concerns involving energy projects are properly addressed 
and that the public interest is protected when proposed hydropower 
projects are licensed or existing projects are relicensed, and when it 
authorizes new natural gas facilities and services. The Commission 
issues orders certificating the construction and operation of interstate 
natural gas pipelines and storage facilities, and authorizing LNG import 
terminal facilities. EPAct 2005 adopts procedures that better coordinate 
the review process for natural gas infrastructure, allowing final 
decisions to be rendered in a timelier manner. Specifically, the 
Commission is designated as the lead agency for the purpose of 
coordinating all applicable authorizations and performing the 
environmental review on the siting and authorization of LNG import 
terminal facilities, hydropower facilities, and interstate natural gas 
pipelines and storage facilities. In its role as the lead agency, the 
Commission establishes a schedule that all other permitting agencies 
must follow, and maintains one consolidated record to be used for any 
judicial reviews of any actions taken. In support thereof, the 
Commission is in the process of implementing integrated licensing and 
pre-filing processes and interagency agreements facilitating hydropower 
licensing, pipeline and storage certification, and LNG facility 
authorization.

    The Commission issues preliminary permits, exemptions, licenses, and 
relicenses for nonfederal hydroelectric projects, enforces their terms 
and conditions, and performs dam safety inspections. It regulates over 
1,700 non-federal dams, which supply about five percent of the electric 
energy generated in the United States. The Commission investigates to 
determine the amount of headwater benefits derived from federally owned 
and FERC-licensed headwater improvements, collects this amount from 
licensees, and returns it to the U.S. Treasury. EPAct 2005 grants tax 
incentives for hydropower developed at dams existing prior to enactment 
of the law. This will have the potential to increase infrastructure 
through the construction of generating facilities at non-hydropower dams 
and the addition of new facilities at existing hydropower projects. In 
2006, the Commission continued to coordinate closely with 
representatives of all agencies having a role in natural gas safety and 
security matters, including the U.S. Coast Guard, the Department of 
Transportation, the Department of Homeland Security, the Federal Bureau 
of Investigation (FBI), and state and local law enforcement. In 
addition, the Commission placed increased emphasis on plant security 
measures and improvements in conducting biennial inspections of 
jurisdictional LNG facilities and in implementing an agreement to 
coordinate security and safety reviews of these facilities with the 
Coast Guard and the Office of Pipeline Safety. In the hydropower 
program, the Commission continued to emphasize its Hydropower Security 
Program by leading interagency coordination on federal infrastructure, 
conducting workshops on dam site security and emergency action planning, 
reviewing over 1,000 Commission-required vulnerability and security 
assessments of dams, and monitoring the implementation of security 
upgrades.

    The Commission's electric grid reliability efforts are bolstered by 
its new authority under EPAct 2005. For example, the Commission will 
oversee the development and enforcement of mandatory grid-reliability 
standards as well as enforcement procedures for violations of those 
standards. EPAct 2005 required the Commission to certify an electric 
reliability organization (ERO) that will propose mandatory reliability 
standards for all users, owners and operators of the bulk power system. 
The Commission has already certified the ERO and proposed to approve and 
make mandatory 83 of the 107 initial reliability standards submitted by 
the ERO for Commission approval.

    The Commission's continued work to promote electric grid reliability 
will focus on: 1) overseeing the development and enforcement of 
mandatory electric reliability standards to protect the bulk power 
system; 2) addressing and improving infrastructure security; and 3) 
coordinating efforts with Canada and Mexico.

     Competitive markets.--The Commission believes that competition, 
combined with effective regulation, is the best national policy for 
wholesale markets. To that end, the Commission develops rules that 
encourage fair and efficient competitive markets and works to prevent 
the accumulation and exercise of market power.

    The Commission continues to promote market transparency and 
promulgate and approve clear market rules. Order No. 888 set the 
foundation upon which to attain competitive electric markets ten years 
ago. The industry that existed when Order No. 888 was issued has changed 
considerably. In May 2006, the Commission proposed reforms to its open 
access transmission tariff to ensure that it continues to remedy undue 
discrimination in the provision of transmission services. For wholesale 
power markets, the Commission has also proposed rules to codify and 
improve its market-based ratemaking policy. The Commission routinely 
places restrictions on affiliate power sales at market-based rates that 
may affect ``captive customers.'' Furthermore, when authorizing market-
based rates, the Commission requires entities to submit triennial market 
analyses and electronic quarterly reports. Also in 2006, the Commission 
issued a staff report to Congress on demand response in electricity 
markets.

    Also with the enactment of EPAct 2005, the Commission has additional 
authority to protect customers. For example, EPAct 2005 repealed the 
substantive restrictions imposed under PUHCA 1935, but enacted new 
statutory provisions, PUHCA 2005, giving the Commission new accounting 
and record keeping authorities over holding companies and their 
associated companies. In October 2006, the Commission adopted uniform 
accounting, reporting and record keeping requirements for holding 
companies and centralized service companies within holding company 
systems. These new requirements will provide greater accounting 
transparency and help protect ratepayers from the pass-through of 
improper service company costs. In addition, the Commission will use its 
strengthened merger and corporate review authority to continue to ensure 
that mergers and consolidations will not harm the public interest. To 
further support competitive markets, EPAct 2005 also reforms the PURPA 
treatment of qualifying facilities, eliminating certain ownership 
restrictions and allowing the Commission to terminate mandatory purchase 
obligations in certain circumstances. The Commission has adopted rules 
implementing these statutory changes.

     Enforcement.--Competitive markets can succeed only when competition 
is combined with effective regulation. The Commission has adjusted its 
regulatory policies to meet the dramatic changes that have occurred in 
both the natural gas and electric industries. The Commission seeks to 
detect violations quickly, publicize misconduct where appropriate, and 
take prompt action to prevent future misconduct. The Commission can 
identify violations by many methods, including review of market 
information required to be filed by market participants; investigations 
of significant price spikes or market anomalies; periodic audits of 
compliance with Commission tariffs, rules and regulations; referrals 
from RTO and independent system operator (ISO) market monitors; tips and 
complaints from the public and market participants; and self-reports of 
violations by companies. (The Commission's October 2005 Enforcement 
Policy Statement encourages companies to self-report violations to 
mitigate remedies).

[[Page 371]]

    It is important that the Commission understands market dynamics, 
detects problems or issues in energy markets early, prevents violations 
of its rules, and enforces compliance with the laws under its 
jurisdiction. Perhaps most important, the Commission must ensure that 
jurisdictional utilities have effective internal monitoring and 
compliance programs in place to help assure that they are following 
established Commission rules and regulations. Commission oversight must 
then provide an independent and external check to ensure each compliance 
program is adequate, and to periodically audit the compliance with 
Commission's rules, regulations, and other statutory requirements.

    To help market participants and regulated entities comply with the 
Commission's rules, the Commission works with stakeholders to explain 
the intent and requirements of its rules and the laws it administers. In 
2006, the Commission adopted rules detailing broad prohibitions on 
energy market manipulation. The Commission has also adopted procedures 
to allow companies to challenge the findings of operational audits 
before a final order is issued. The Commission also has initiated a ``no 
action letter'' process to permit market participants to seek advice on 
whether staff would recommend action against specific transactions in 
light of the relevant laws and policies. Such initiatives will simplify 
the Commission's rules regarding market manipulation and provide greater 
clarity and regulatory certainty.

    The Commission's enforcement tools were greatly reinforced when 
EPAct 2005 conferred expanded authority which provided, for the first 
time, penalty authority for violations of the NGA and all of Part II of 
the FPA. It further provided or increased (for violations of the NGPA) 
the level of penalties to $1 million each day for the duration of the 
violation. Penalties of this magnitude also are applicable, pursuant to 
EPAct 2005 amendments to the FPA and NGA, to any entity (not just 
companies traditionally subject to the Commission's jurisdiction) that 
manipulates wholesale gas or electric markets by engaging in fraud or 
deceit in connection with jurisdictional transactions. Armed with this 
expanded authority, which is comparable to that of other federal 
regulatory bodies, the Commission intends to create an even stronger and 
more effective compliance and enforcement program to protect the public 
interest.

     Management initiatives.--The Commission has initiatives underway 
and processes in place to support its three strategic goals and the 
President's Management Agenda. These activities, including alternative 
dispute resolution and litigation, and the effective management of human 
capital, agency resources, and information technology help the 
Commission work more efficiently both within and across program areas. 
The Commission also relies on various methods to communicate its 
policies and actions to the public. Open lines of communication with 
affected parties are critical for effective functioning of the 
Commission's operations.

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

    Upon default of the borrower in 1985 under a Department of Energy 
Federal loan guarantee, the Department acquired

[[Page 372]]

ownership of the Great Plains Coal Gasification Project plant by 
foreclosure. On October 31, 1988, the Department completed an asset 
purchase agreement of the Great Plains Gasification Plant by Dakota 
Gasification Company (DGC).

    Negotiated settlement agreements dated February 16, 1994, resolved 
all past disputes as well as restructured the Gas Purchase Agreements 
pricing provisions.

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

    The Energy Policy Act of 2005 (Public Law 109-58) created a 
mandatory Ultra-Deepwater and Unconventional Natural Gas and Other 
Petroleum Research program beginning in 2007. The program would be 
funded from Federal revenues from oil and gas leases. The Budget 
proposes to cancel the program through a future legislative proposal.

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

    Section 3415 of the Act required, among other things, that the 
Department make an offer of settlement based on the fair value of the 
State of California's longstanding claims to two parcels of land 
(``school lands'') within the Reserve. Under the Act, nine percent of 
the net proceeds were reserved in a contingent fund in the Treasury for 
payment to the State. In compliance with the Act and in order to remove 
any cloud over title which could diminish the sales value of the 
Reserve, the Department entered into a settlement agreement with the 
State on October 11, 1996. That agreement calls for payment to the 
State, subject to appropriations, of nine percent of the net proceeds of 
sale, payable over a seven-year period (without interest), commencing in 
1999. Under the settlement agreement and provided that funds are 
appropriated, the first five installments are for $36 million each year, 
and the remaining balance is to be paid in two equal installments in 
years six and seven unless the seventh payment needs to be deferred in 
whole or in part due to the equity finalization schedule. Under the 
settlement agreement, $300 million has been paid to the State of 
California. There is no request for funding in 2008. The timing and 
levels of any future budget request are dependent on the schedule and 
results of the equity finalization process.

    The Northeast Home Heating Oil Reserve assures a home heating oil 
supply for the Northeast States during times of very low inventories and 
significant threats to immediate supply. Two million barrels of heating 
oil will protect the Northeast against a disruption for 10 days, the 
time required for ships to carry heating oil from the Gulf of Mexico to 
New York Harbor.

    Contracts for the storage, operation and maintenance of the reserve 
were renewed on October 1, 2006. Contracts were awarded to Amerada Hess 
(for 1,000,000 barrels in New York harbor) to Morgan Stanley (for 
500,000 barrels in New Haven, CT), and to Motiva (for 250,000 barrels in 
New Haven, CT and 250,000 barrels in Providence, RI).

    The Administration's legislative proposal, The Nuclear Fuel 
Management and Disposal Act, lays a solid foundation for America's 
future energy security by providing stability, clarity, and 
predictability to the Yucca Mountain repository project. The proposed 
legislation will facilitate the Department's ability to access the 
Nuclear Waste Fund, which will help ensure adequate and consistent 
funding needed to support repository construction and operation.

    The Budget for the Office of Civilian Radioactive Waste Management 
provides $494.5 million for the 2008 activities. This funding is 
required to implement the Federal policy for permanent geologic disposal 
of commercial spent nuclear fuel and high-level radioactive waste 
resulting from the Nation's commercial reactors and atomic energy 
defense activities. A review of the program resulted in a canistered 
approach to fuel handling, and that will mean a simpler and safer 
operation of the repository and improved operations and performance. 
This path forward will offer the program increased opportunities for 
improving the quality of its facilities, while meeting its contractual 
obligations to accept waste at the earliest practical time following 
licensing by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission.

    2008 represents a critical juncture in the Yucca Mountain Repository 
Project. A considerable share of the work planned is essential to lay 
the foundation for a successful repository program by moving forward 
with the repository design and completion and submission of the license 
application not later than June 30, 2008. DOE activities are premised on 
meeting Nuclear Regulatory Commission requirements and obtaining any 
necessary regulatory approvals. Investments on four broad fronts in 2008 
are required for the project to be able to dispose of 70,000 tons of 
Spent Nuclear Fuel (SNF) and High Level Waste (HLW) that is currently 
being stored at 122 sites in 39 states. Success is dependent on adequate 
investment and progress in the following areas:
        (1) Development of a license application for submittal to the 
    Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) based on a safer and simpler 
    approach to handling SNF and operating the repository, otherwise 
    known as the clean and canistered approach. Development and 
    subsequent NRC approval of the license will give the Department the 
    authorization to operate Yucca Mountain and dispose of waste.
        (2) Development of a transportation infrastructure to move the 
    waste from where it is today, safely and securely to the repository 
    for disposal. Without an adequate transportation system there is no 
    credible way for the Department to transport waste to the repository 
    site for disposal.
        (3) Improvement of an aging site infrastructure to ensure 
    worker, regulator, and visitor safety, which will become a safety 
    issue if action is not taken.
        (4) Development of a culture expected of a NRC licensee. 
    Consistent with the Institute for Nuclear Powers Operators (INPO) 
    and NRC guidance, develop a culture in which the organization's 
    values and behaviors serve to make nuclear safety the overriding 
    priority.

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

    The Office of Loan Guarantees will consider and coordinate 
Departmental action on all loan guarantee applications submitted to the 
Department of Energy in compliance with Title XVII of the Energy Policy 
Act of 2005. Section 1703 of that Act authorizes the Department to 
provide loan guarantees for renewable energy systems, advanced nuclear 
facilities, coal gasification, carbon sequestration, energy efficiency, 
and many other types of projects. These projects must avoid, reduce, or 
sequester air pollutants or anthropogenic emissions of greenhouse gases; 
employ new or significantly improved technologies compared to commercial 
technologies in service in the United States at the time the guarantee 
is issued; and offer a reasonable prospect of repayment of the principal 
and interest on the guaranteed obligation. In the near future, the 
Department will propose regulations for this program that will be 
finalized after an opportunity for public review and comment.

    The Budget proposes a 2008 loan volume limitation of $9 billion. Of 
this amount, DOE will seek to guarantee approximately $4 billion in 
loans for central power generation facilities (for example, nuclear 
facilities or carbon sequestration optimized coal power plants), $4 
billion in loans for projects that promote biofuels and clean 
transportation fuels; and $1 billion in loans for projects using new 
technologies for electric transmission facilities or renewable power 
generation systems. Precisely how any authorized loan guarantee 
authority would be allocated, however, ultimately would depend on the 
merits and benefits of particular project proposals and their compliance 
with statutory and regulatory requirements.

    If, in appropriations acts for 2007, Congress authorizes the $2 
billion in loan guarantee authority set forth in the Solicitation for 
Pre-Applications that the Department issued in August 2006, the 2008 
proposed loan volume limitation would be reduced by that amount.

    Because DOE has not yet evaluated the potential subsidy costs for 
any projects that might be eligible for Title XVII loan guarantees, the 
2008 Budget reflects placeholder estimates for borrower paid loan 
guarantee subsidy costs, based

[[Page 378]]

on an illustrative portfolio. These estimates are not related to any 
specific project proposals.

    The Office of Loan Guarantees will centralize loan guarantee 
services for the Department to ensure all processes and criteria are 
applied uniformly in accordance with established requirements, 
procedures and guidelines. The Department requests $8.3 million in 
funding in 2008 to run the Office and support personnel and associated 
costs. To ensure that the Department meets statutory requirements 
regarding loan guarantee activities, program funding also will support 
the procurement of outside expertise in areas such as finance and 
commercial market assessment.

    As required by the Federal Credit Reform Act of 1990, this account 
records, for this program, the subsidy costs associated with the loan 
guarantees committed 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; the 
administrative expenses are estimated on a cash basis.

office, were terminated on September 30, 1998.

                                

      Operation and Maintenance, Southeastern Power Administration

    For necessary expenses of operation and maintenance of power 
transmission facilities and of electric power and energy, including 
transmission wheeling and ancillary services pursuant to section 5 of 
the Flood Control Act of 1944 (16 U.S.C. 825s), as applied to the 
southeastern power area, $6,463,000, to remain available until expended: 
Provided, That, notwithstanding the provisions of 31 U.S.C. 3302, 
beginning in fiscal year 2008 and thereafter, such funds as are received 
by the Southeastern Power Administration from any State, municipality, 
corporation, association, firm, district, or individual as advance 
payment for work that is associated with Southeastern's Operation and 
Maintenance, consistent with that authorized in section 5 of the Flood 
Control Act of 1944, shall be credited to this amount and be available 
until expended: Provided further, That notwithstanding 31 U.S.C. 3302, 
up to $48,413,000 collected by the Southeastern Power Administration 
pursuant to the Flood Control Act of 1944 to recover purchase power and 
wheeling expenses shall be credited to this account as offsetting 
collections, to remain available until expended for the sole purpose of 
making purchase power and wheeling expenditures.

    Note.--A regular 2007 appropriation for this account had not been 
enacted at the time the budget was prepared; therefore, this account is 
operating under a continuing resolution (P.L. 109-289, Division B, as 
amended). The amounts included for 2007 in this budget reflect the 
levels provided by the continuing resolution.

    The Southeastern Power Administration (Southeastern) markets power 
generated at Corps of Engineers' hydroelectric generating plants in an 
eleven-State area of the Southeast. Deliveries are made by means of 
contracting for use of transmission facilities owned by others. There 
are 22 projects now in operation.

    Southeastern sells wholesale power primarily to publicly and 
cooperatively-owned electric distribution utilities. Southeastern does 
not own or operate any transmission facilities. Its long-term contracts 
provide for periodic electric rate adjustments to ensure that the 
Federal Government recovers costs of operation and capital invested in 
power, with interest, in keeping with statutory requirements. In 
addition, the Budget provides that the interest rate for future 
obligations owed to the Treasury by all of the Power Marketing 
Administrations for power-related investments be set at the rate 
Governmental corporations borrow in the market, similar to the interest 
rates current law sets for the Bonneville Power Administration's 
borrowing from the U.S. Treasury. This new policy will be applied to all 
power-related investments whose interest rates are not specified in law.

    Program direction.--Provision is made for negotiation and 
administration of transmission and power contracts, collection of 
revenues, development of wholesale power rates, the amortization of 
power investment, energy efficiency and competitiveness program, 
investigation and planning of proposed water resources projects, 
scheduling and dispatch of power generation, scheduling storage and 
release of water, administration of contractual operation requirements, 
and determination of methods of operating generating plants individually 
and in coordination with others to obtain maximum utilization of 
resources.

    Purchase power and wheeling.--Provision is made for the payment of 
wheeling fees and for the purchase of electricity in connection with the 
disposal of power under contracts with utility companies. Customers are 
encouraged to use alternative funding mechanisms, including customer 
advances and net billing to finance these activities. Offsetting 
collections to fund these ongoing operating services are also available 
up to $48 million. Estimates for these activities reflect average water 
levels over the past 20 years and prevailing electricity prices in 2006.

    A continuing fund of $50,000, maintained from receipts from the sale 
and transmission of electric power in the southeastern service area, is 
available to defray expenses necessary to ensure continuity of service 
(16 U.S.C. 825s-2). The fund was last activated during 2006 to finance 
power purchases associated with below normal hydro power generation due 
to drought. Consistent with sound business practices, the Budget 
proposes that all emergency funds provided to Southeastern Power 
Administration through the Continuing Fund for the purpose of purchasing 
power or wheeling services must be repaid by power customers within one 
year or less, from the time funds are expended.

                                

      Operation and Maintenance, Southwestern Power Administration

(16 U.S.C. 825s), as applied to the southwestern power area, 
$30,442,000, to remain available until expended: Provided, That, 
notwithstanding 31 U.S.C. 3302, up to $35,000,000 collected by the

    The Southwestern Power Administration (Southwestern) operates in a 
six-State area as a marketing agent for hydroelectric power produced at 
the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers' dams. It also operates and maintains 
1,380 miles of high voltage transmission lines, 24 substations/switching 
stations, associated power system control, and communication sites. 
Southwestern constructs additions and modifications to its existing 
facilities.

    Southwestern markets and delivers its power at wholesale rates 
primarily to publicly and cooperatively owned electric distribution 
utilities. In compliance with statutory requirements, Southwestern's 
power sales contracts provide for periodic rate adjustments to ensure 
that the Federal Government recovers all costs of operations, other 
costs allocated to power, and the capital investments in power 
facilities, with interest. In addition, the Budget provides that the 
interest rate for future obligations owed to the Treasury by all of the 
Power Marketing Administrations for power-related investments be set at 
the rate Governmental corporations borrow in the market, similar to the 
interest rates current law sets for BPA's borrowing from the U.S. 
Treasury. This new policy will be applied to all power-related 
investments whose interest rates are not specified in law.

    Southwestern is also responsible for scheduling and dispatching 
power and negotiating power sales contracts to meet changing customer 
load requirements.

of energy to meet limited peaking power contractual obligations and 
transmission line losses resulting from the delivery of power over the 
Federal system. Federal power receipts and alternative financing 
methods, including net billing, bill crediting, and customer advances 
are used to fund system purchased power support and other contractual 
services. Customers will provide other power resources and/or purchases 
for the remainder of their firm loads.

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

    A Continuing Fund of $300,000, replenished from receipts from the 
sale and transmission of electric power in the southwestern area, is 
available permanently for emergency expenses necessary to ensure 
continuity of electric service and continuous operation of the 
facilities and is available on an ongoing basis for paying for purchase 
power and wheeling expenses when the Administrator determines that such 
expenses are necessary to meet contractual obligations for the sale and 
delivery of power during periods of below-average generation (16 U.S.C. 
825s-1 as amended further by Public Law No. 101-101, Title III). The 
fund was last activated during 2006 to finance power purchases 
associated with below normal hydropower generation due to drought.

    Consistent with sound business practices, the Budget proposes that 
all emergency funds provided to Southwestern Power Administration 
through the Continuing Fund for the purpose of purchasing power or 
wheeling services must be repaid by power customers within one year or 
less, from the time funds are expended.

                                

 Construction, Rehabilitation, Operation and Maintenance, Western Area 
                          Power Administration

    For carrying out the functions authorized by title III, section 
302(a)(1)(E) of the Act of August 4, 1977 (42 U.S.C. 7152), and other 
related activities including conservation and renewable resources 
programs as authorized, including the operation, maintenance, and 
purchase through transfer, exchange, or sale of one helicopter for 
replacement only, and official reception and representation expenses in 
an amount not to exceed $1,500; $201,030,000, to remain available until 
expended, of which $191,094,000 shall be derived from the Department of

this account as offsetting collections, to remain available until 
expended for the sole purpose of making purchase power and wheeling 
expenditures.

    Note.--A regular 2007 appropriation for this account had not been 
enacted at the time the budget was prepared; therefore, this account is 
operating under a continuing resolution (P.L. 109-289, Division B, as 
amended). The amounts included for 2007 in this budget reflect the 
levels provided by the continuing resolution.

    The Western Area Power Administration (Western) markets electric 
power in 15 central and western States from federally-owned power plants 
operated primarily by the Bureau of Reclamation, Army Corps of 
Engineers, and the International Boundary and Water Commission. Western 
operates and maintains about 17,000 circuit-miles of high-voltage 
transmission line, more than 290 substations/switchyards, and associated 
power system control, communication and electrical facilities for 15 
separate power projects. Western also constructs additions and 
modifications to existing facilities.

    In keeping with statutory requirements, Western's long-term power 
contracts allow for periodic rate adjustments to ensure that the Federal 
Government recovers costs of operation, other costs allocated to power, 
and the capital investment in power facilities, with interest. In 
addition, the Budget provides that the interest rate for future 
obligations owed to the Treasury by all of the Power Marketing 
Administrations for power-related investments be set at the rate 
Governmental corporations borrow in the market, similar to the interest 
rates current law sets for BPA's borrowing from the U.S. Treasury. This 
new policy will be applied to all power-related investments whose 
interest rates are not specified in law.

    Power is sold to wholesale customers such as municipalities, 
cooperatives, irrigation districts, public utility districts, State and 
Federal Government agencies, and private utilities. Receipts are 
deposited in the Reclamation Fund, the Falcon and Amistad Operating and 
Maintenance Fund, the General Fund, the Colorado River Dam Fund and the 
Colorado River Basins Power Marketing Fund.

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

    Purchase power and wheeling.--Provision is made for the payment of 
wheeling fees and for the purchase of electricity in connection with the 
disposal of power under contracts with utility companies. Customers are 
encouraged to contract for power and wheeling on their own, or use 
alternative funding mechanisms, including customer advances, net billing 
and bill crediting to finance these activities. Ongoing operating 
services are also available on a reimbursable basis up to $258.7 
million.

    System construction.--Western's construction and rehabilitation 
activity emphasizes replacement and upgrades of existing infrastructure 
to sustain reliable power delivery to its customers, to contain annual 
maintenance costs, and to improve overall operational efficiency. 
Western will continue to participate in joint construction projects to 
encourage more widespread transmission access.

    Program direction.--Provides compensation and all related expenses 
for the workforce that operates and maintains Western's high-voltage 
interconnected transmission system (systems operation and maintenance 
program), and those that plan, design, and supervise the construction of 
replacements, upgrades and additions (system construction program) to 
the transmission facilities.

    Utah mitigation and conservation.--This account is primarily for 
environmental mitigation expenditures covering fish and wildlife, and 
recreation resources impacted by the Central Utah Project and the 
Colorado River Storage Project (CRSP) in the State of Utah. Western 
sells and transmits power from two projects in Utah. Western does not 
transmit power from the Central Utah Project.

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

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

    A continuing fund of $500,000 maintained from receipts from the sale 
and transmission of electric power is available to defray expenses 
necessary to ensure continuity of service. The fund was activated in 
2007 to repair a transformer damaged by lightning at the Huron 
Substation in South Dakota.

    Consistent with sound business practices, the Budget proposes that 
all emergency funds provided to Western Area Power Administration 
through the Continuing Fund for the purpose of purchasing power or 
wheeling services must be repaid by power customers within one year or 
less, from the time funds are expended.

                                

            Falcon and Amistad Operating and Maintenance Fund

    For operation, maintenance, and emergency costs for the 
hydroelectric facilities at the Falcon and Amistad Dams, $2,500,000, to 
remain available until expended, and to be derived from the Falcon and 
Amistad Operating and Maintenance Fund of the Western Area Power 
Administration, as provided in section 423 of the Foreign Relations 
Authorization Act, Fiscal Years 1994 and 1995.

    Note.--A regular 2007 appropriation for this account had not been 
enacted at the time the budget was prepared; therefore, this account is 
operating under a continuing resolution (P.L. 109-289, Division B, as 
amended). The amounts included for 2007 in this budget reflect the 
levels provided by the continuing resolution.

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

    Bonneville Power Administration (BPA) is a Federal electric power 
marketing agency in the Pacific Northwest. BPA markets hydroelectric 
power from 21 multipurpose water resource projects of the U.S. Army 
Corps of Engineers and 10 projects of the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation, 
plus some energy from non-Federal generating projects in the region. 
These generating resources and BPA's transmission system, consisting of 
15,000 circuit miles of high-voltage transmission lines and 238 
substations, are operated as an integrated power system with operating 
and financial results combined and reported as the Federal Columbia 
River Power System (FCRPS). BPA provides about forty percent of the 
region's electric energy supply and more than three-fourths of the 
region's electric power transmission capacity.

    BPA is responsible for meeting the net firm power requirements of 
its requesting customers through a variety of means, including energy 
conservation programs, acquisition of renewable and other resources, and 
power exchanges with utilities both in and outside the region.

    BPA will finance its operations on the basis of the self-financing 
authority provided by Federal Columbia River Transmission System Act of 
1974 (Transmission Act) (Public Law 93-454) and the borrowing authority 
provided by the Pacific Northwest Electric Power Planning and 
Conservation Act (Pacific Northwest Power Act) (Public Law 96-501) for 
energy conservation, renewable energy resources and capital fish 
facilities. Authority to borrow from the U.S. Treasury is available to 
the BPA on a permanent, indefinite basis. The amount of borrowing 
outstanding at any time cannot exceed $4.45 billion.

    BPA finances its over $3.0 billion annual cost of operations and 
investments primarily using power revenues and loans from the U.S. 
Treasury. BPA has also started seeking non-federal participation and 
joint financing and ownership of its transmission system upgrades and 
other investments. BPA will coordinate with the Secretary of Energy or 
his designee on such alternative financing opportunities. BPA currently 
estimates joint financing and ownership (lease-purchase excluding 
financing for Columbia Generating Station new investments) at $100 
million in 2007, $49 million in 2008, $50 million in 2009, $50 million 
in 2010, $53 million in 2011, and $60 million in 2012 for an estimated 
total of $362 million during the period 2007 through 2012.

    U.S. Treasury Borrowing Authority.--BPA markets its secondary 
electricity production to some customers both inside and outside of the 
Pacific Northwest, such as California. In recent years, BPA has produced 
substantial net secondary revenue sales--in 2006, BPA's net secondary 
market revenues were in excess of $700 million, the highest amount ever. 
Due to the volatility of energy prices, these secondary revenues could 
be higher or lower, depending on a number of factors including hydro 
variability.

    It is the Administration's position that it is sound business 
practice to use a portion of these higher-than-historical net secondary 
revenues to invest back into energy infrastructure and to pay down debt. 
Infrastructure investments for critical transmission pathways in the 
Pacific Northwest transmission grid, for example, would alleviate 
congestion. Infrastructure investments are needed now and will continue 
to be needed in the future.

[[Page 385]]

    Beginning in the year 2008 and consistent with sound business 
practices required by the Transmission System Act of 1974, the budget 
provides that BPA will use any net secondary market revenues, in excess 
of $500 million per year, to make advance amortization payments to the 
United States Treasury on BPA's bond obligations. These payments will be 
made consistent with statutory priority of payment requirements. This 
administrative action will help to provide BPA with needed financial 
flexibility to meet its future energy investment needs, including 
investments in critical transmission facilities. Long-term power and 
transmission service customers of BPA should benefit from these advance 
amortization payments both through lower long-term rates than would 
otherwise be the case, and through improved and upgraded capital 
facilities. The budget reflects an estimate of $646 million from 2008 to 
2012 from these higher-than-historical net secondary revenues. The 
Administration encourages a continued ongoing dialogue in the Pacific 
Northwest to address the manner in which this proposal will improve 
BPA's ability to meet its long-term capital investment needs with 
minimal rate impact.

    BPA currently has $6.5 billion in private, third-party liabilities 
(including liabilities related to Energy Northwest) payable in future 
years. BPA continues to pursue future debt optimization efforts 
(refinancing) subject to Energy Northwest approval and municipal bond 
market conditions. Estimates of new BPA debt optimization applied to 
Treasury bond prepayment are $147 million in 2008 and $260 million over 
the 2008-2012 period. The combined total of BPA's debt optimization 
efforts and Treasury prepayments from net secondary revenues is 
estimated to reduce $906 million of treasury borrowing by 2012, which 
are counted towards BPA's $4.45 billion borrowing authority limit.

    Operating expenses: Transmission services business line.--Provides 
funding from revenues for electric transmission research and development 
and program support of the capital investment program described below 
for transmission services. Provides for operating about 15,000 miles of 
line and 238 substations, and for maintaining the facilities and 
equipment of the Bonneville transmission system in 2008.

    Power Services.--Provides for the planning, contractual acquisition 
and oversight of reliable, cost effective resources. These resources are 
needed to serve BPA's portion of the region's forecasted net electric 
load requirements. This activity also includes protection, mitigation 
and enhancement of fish and wildlife affected by hydroelectric 
facilities on the Columbia River and its tributaries in accordance with 
the Pacific Northwest Power Act. This activity provides for payment of 
the operation and maintenance (O&M) costs of the 31 U.S. Army Corps of 
Engineers and U.S. Bureau of Reclamation hydro projects, and 
amortization on the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation capital investment in 
power generating facilities and irrigation assistance at Bureau 
facilities. This activity also provides for the planning, contractual 
acquisition and oversight of reliable, cost effective conservation. It 
also provides for extending the benefits of low cost Federal power to 
the residential and small farm customers of investor-owned and publicly-
owned utilities, in accordance with the Pacific Northwest Power Act and 
for activities of the Pacific Northwest Electric Power and Conservation 
Planning Council required by the Pacific Northwest Power Act.

    Interest.--Provides for payments to the U.S. Treasury for interest 
on borrowings to finance BPA's transmission services, conservation, 
capital equipment, fish and wildlife, and associated projects capital 
programs under $4.45 billion of borrowing authority provided by the 
Transmission Act as amended by the Pacific Northwest Power Act and 
replenished by Public Law 98-50 and Public Law 108-7. In implementing 
its borrowing authority, Bonneville will encourage private-sector or 
other non-federal financing or joint financing of transmission line 
expansions and additions, develop a five-year investment plan with the 
participation of the regional Infrastructure Technical Review Committee 
or its successor in the region, use funds only for authorized purposes, 
include the proposed use of the funds in its annual budget submissions, 
and select projects based on cost effectiveness criteria for achieving 
the objective. This category also includes interest on Corps of 
Engineers, BPA and U.S. Bureau of Reclamation appropriated debt.

    Capital investments: Transmission Services.--Provides for the 
planning, design and construction of transmission lines, substation and 
control system additions, replacements, and enhancements to the FCRPS 
transmission system for a reliable, efficient and cost-effective 
regional transmission system. Provides for planning, design, and 
construction work to repair or replace existing transmission lines, 
substations, control systems, and general facilities of the FCRPS 
transmission system.

    Capital investments: Power Services.--Provides for direct funding of 
additions, improvements, and replacements at existing Federal 
hydroelectric projects in the Northwest. It also provides for capital 
investments to implement environmental activities, and protect, 
mitigate, and enhance fish and wildlife affected by hydroelectric 
facilities on the Columbia River and its tributaries, in accordance with 
the Pacific Northwest Power Act. This activity provides for the 
planning, contractual acquisition and oversight of reliable, cost 
effective conservation.

    Capital equipment/capitalized bond premium.--Provides for capital 
information technologies, and office furniture and equipment, and 
software capital development in support of all BPA programs. It also 
provides for bond premiums incurred for refinancing of bonds.

    Contingencies.--Although contingencies are not specifically funded, 
the need may arise to provide for purchase of power in low-water years; 
for repair and/or replacement of facilities affected by natural and man-
made emergencies, including the resulting additional costs for 
contracting, construction, and operation and maintenance work; for 
unavoidable increased costs for the planned program due to necessary but 
unforeseen adjustments, including engineering and design changes, 
contractor and other claims and relocations; or for payment of a 
retrospective premium adjustment in excess nuclear property insurance.

    Financing.--The Transmission Act provides for the use by BPA of all 
receipts, collections, and recoveries in cash from all sources, 
including the sale of bonds, to finance the annual budget programs of 
BPA. These receipts result primarily from the sale of power and 
transmission services. The Transmission Act also provides for authority 
to borrow from the U.S. Treasury at rates comparable to borrowings at 
open market rates for similar issues. As amended by the Pacific 
Northwest Power Act and replenished by Public Law 98-50 and Public Law 
108-7, it allows for $4.45 billion of borrowing to be outstanding at any 
time. The 2008 capital obligations are estimated to be $542 million. To 
the extent BPA capital borrowing authority is insufficient in 2008, BPA 
would use cash reserves generated by revenues from customers, if 
available, to finance some of these investments.

    In 2006, BPA made payments to the Treasury of $1.1 billion and also 
expects to make payments of $773 million in 2007 and $1,090 million in 
2008. The 2008 payment will be distributed as follows: interest on bonds 
and appropriations ($384 million), amortization ($685 million), and 
other ($21 million). BPA also received credits totaling $71 million 
applied against its Treasury payments in 2006 to reflect amounts 
diverted to fish mitigation efforts in the Columbia and Snake River 
systems.

    Direct loans.--During 2008, no new direct loan obligations may be 
made.

[[Page 386]]

    Operating results.--Total revenues are forecast at approximately 
$3.3 billion in 2008.

    It should be noted that BPA's revenue forecasts are based on several 
critical assumptions about both the supply of and demand for Federal 
energy. During the operating year, deviation from the conditions assumed 
in a rate case may result in a variation in actual revenues of several 
hundred million dollars from the forecast.

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

    Western's operation and maintenance (O&M) and power marketing 
expenses for the Colorado River Storage Project, the Colorado River 
Basin Project, the Seedskadee Project, the Dolores Project and the Fort 
Peck Project are financed from power revenues.

    Program direction.--Western operates and maintains approximately 
4,000 miles of transmission lines, substations, switchyards, 
communications and control equipment associated with this Fund. The 
personnel compensation and related expenses for all these activities are 
quantified under Program Direction. Wholesale power is provided to 
utilities over interconnected high-voltage transmission systems. In 
keeping with statutory requirements, long-term power contracts provide 
for

[[Page 387]]

periodic rate adjustments to ensure that the Federal Government recovers 
all costs of O&M and all capital invested in power, with interest.

    Colorado River Storage project.--Western markets power and operates 
and maintains the power transmission facilities of the Colorado River 
Storage Project consisting of four major storage units: Glen Canyon on 
the Colorado River, Flaming Gorge on the Green River in Utah, Navajo on 
the San Juan River in New Mexico, and the Wayne N. Aspinall unit on the 
Gunnison River in Colorado.

    Colorado River Basin project.--The Colorado River Basin Project 
includes Western's expenses associated with the Central Arizona Project 
and the United States entitlement from the Navajo coal-fired powerplant. 
Revenues in excess of operating expenses are transferred to the Lower 
Colorado River Basin Development Fund.

    Fort Peck project.--Revenue collected by Western is used to defray 
operation and maintenance and power marketing expenses associated with 
the power generation and transmission facilities of the Fort Peck 
Project, Corps of Engineers--Civil, to defray emergency expenses, and to 
ensure continuous operation. The Corps operates and maintains the power 
generating facilities, and Western operates and maintains the 
transmission system and performs power marketing functions.

    Seedskadee project.--This activity includes Western's expenses for 
O&M, power marketing, and transmission of hydroelectric power from 
Fontenelle Dam's powerplant in southwestern Wyoming.

    Dolores project.--This activity includes Western's expenses for O&M, 
power marketing, and transmission of hydroelectric power from 
powerplants at McPhee Dam and Towaoc Canal in southwestern Colorado.

    The Administration supports reclassification of receipts from 
mandatory to discretionary (net zero appropriations) for the annual 
operating expenses of Southeastern, Southwestern, and Western Area Power 
Marketing Administrations. However, the Budget does not propose 
reclassification because there was no agreement between the 
Administration and Congress to reclassify such receipts without 
legislative action. The Administration will continue to pursue 
reclassfication of receipts either through provisions in the 
congressional budget resolution or through changes to the existing 
authorizing statute.

                      (including transfer of funds)

    For salaries and expenses of the Department of Energy necessary for 
departmental administration in carrying out the purposes of the 
Department of Energy Organization Act (42 U.S.C. 7101 et seq.), 
including the hire of passenger motor vehicles and official reception 
and representation expenses not to exceed $35,000, $310,366,000, to 
remain available until expended, plus such additional amounts as 
necessary to cover increases in the estimated amount of cost of work for 
others notwithstanding the provisions of the Anti-Deficiency Act (31 
U.S.C. 1511 et seq.): Provided, That such increases in cost of work are 
offset by revenue increases of the same or greater amount, to remain 
available until expended: Provided further, That moneys received by the 
Department for miscellaneous revenues estimated to total $161,818,000 in 
fiscal year 2008 may be retained and used for operating expenses within 
this account, and may remain available until expended, as authorized by 
section 201 of Public Law 95-238, notwithstanding the provisions of 31 
U.S.C. 3302: Provided further, That the sum herein appropriated shall be 
reduced by the amount of miscellaneous revenues received during 2008, 
and any related appropriated receipt account balances remaining from 
prior years' miscellaneous revenues, so as to result in a final fiscal 
year 2008 appropriation from the general fund estimated at not more than 
$148,548,000.

    Note.--A regular 2007 appropriation for this account had not been 
enacted at the time the budget was prepared; therefore, this account is 
operating under a continuing resolution (P.L. 109-289, Division B, as 
amended). The amounts included for 2007 in this budget reflect the 
levels provided by the continuing resolution.

    Departmental Administration.--This account funds eleven Department-
wide management organizations under Administrative Operations. These 
organizations support headquarters in human resources, administration, 
accounting, budgeting, project management, information management, legal 
services, life-cycle asset management, workforce diversity, minority

Funding for the Office of the Secretary is provided separately from 
other administrative functions within the Departmental Administration 
account.

International Affairs (PI) is the primary advisor to Departmental 
leadership on existing and prospective energy-related policies. PI 
provides the Department and the U.S. Government with cross-cutting 
analysis of critical energy issues. PI oversees the efforts of diverse 
elements in the Department to ensure a unified voice on policy and 
international affairs. PI also works closely with other Federal 
agencies, national and international organizations and institutions, and 
the private sector to coordinate short- and long-term energy policy, 
rapidly respond to breaking energy events, oversee priority budget 
allocations and maintain public outreach. The Office represents the 
Department in interagency discussions on energy and related policy, 
addresses all aspects of U.S. energy security, and has primary 
responsibility for the Department's international energy affairs, 
including energy policy, energy emergency and national security, 
environmental issues, investment/trade activities, and technology 
cooperation. This includes negotiating and managing a variety of 
bilateral and multilateral agreements with other countries and 
international agencies for cooperation in the research and development 
of energy and energy-related environmental technologies. PI leads the

offices, and for determining the Department's authoritative position on 
any question of law with respect to all Department offices and programs, 
except for those belonging exclusively to the Federal Energy Regulatory 
Commission. GC's responsibilities include the provision of legal 
opinions, advice and services to administrative and program offices, and 
participation in or management of both administrative and judicial 
litigation. The office is responsible for the coordination and clearance 
of proposed legislation affecting energy policy and Department 
activities. The General Counsel serves as the Department's Regulatory

ensuring consistency and legal sufficiency of the Department's 
regulations. GC administers and monitors standards of conduct 
requirements, conducts patent program and intellectual property

implement applicable legislation and Executive Orders that strengthen 
diversity within the Department and its contractors in all areas of 
hiring and contracting.

competitive sourcing costs including contractor support for feasibility 
and functional area studies, and implementation costs.

    Cost of work for others.--This activity covers the cost of work

    This appropriation provides Department-wide, including the National 
Nuclear Security Administration, audit, inspection, and investigative 
functions to identify and correct management and administrative 
deficiencies which create conditions for existing or potential instances 
of fraud, waste, abuse and violations of law. The audit function 
provides financial and performance audits of programs and operations. 
The inspection function provides independent inspections and analyses of 
the performance, on a system basis, of programs and operations. The 
investigative function provides for the detection and investigation of 
improper and illegal activities involving programs, personnel, and 
operations. Through these efforts the OIG identifies opportunities for 
cost savings and operational efficiencies; identifies programs that are 
not meeting performance expectations; recovers monies to the Department 
and the Treasury as a result of civil and criminal prosecutions; and, 
identifies ways to make Departmental programs safer and more secure.

                           GENERAL PROVISIONS

    Sec. 301. (a)(1) None of the funds in this or any other 
appropriations Act for fiscal year 2008 or any previous fiscal year may 
be used to make payments for a noncompetitive management and operating 
contract unless the Secretary of Energy has published in the Federal 
Register and submitted to the Committees on Appropriations of the House 
of Representatives and the Senate a written notification, with respect 
to each such contract, of the Secretary's decision to use competitive 
procedures for the award of the contract, or to not renew the contract, 
when the term of the contract expires.
    (2) Paragraph (1) does not apply to an extension for up to 2 years 
of a noncompetitive management and operating contract, if the extension 
is for cpurposes of allowing time to award competitively a new contract, 
to provide continuity of service between contracts, or to complete a 
contract that will not be renewed.
    (b) In this section:
        (1) The term ``noncompetitive management and operating 
    contract'' means a contract that was awarded more than 50 years ago 
    without competition for the management and operation of Ames 
    Laboratory, Argonne National Laboratory, Lawrence Berkeley National 
    Laboratory, Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, and Los Alamos 
    National Laboratory.
        (2) The term ``competitive procedures'' has the meaning provided 
    in section 4 of the Office of Federal Procurement Policy Act (41 
    U.S.C. 403) and includes procedures described in section 303 of the 
    Federal Property and Administrative Services Act of 1949 (41 U.S.C. 
    253) other than a procedure that solicits a proposal from only one 
    source.
    (c) For all management and operating contracts other than those 
listed in subsection (b)(1), none of the funds appropriated by this Act 
may be used to award a management and operating contract, or award a 
significant extension or expansion to an existing management and 
operating contract, unless such contract is awarded using competitive 
procedures or the Secretary of Energy grants, on a case-by-case basis, a 
waiver to allow for such a deviation. The Secretary may not delegate the 
authority to grant such a waiver. At least 60 days before a contract 
award for which the Secretary intends to grant such a waiver, the 
Secretary shall submit to the Committees on Appropriations of the House 
of Representatives and the Senate a report notifying the Committees of 
the waiver and setting forth, in specificity, the substantive reasons 
why the Secretary believes the requirement for competition should be 
waived for this particular award.
    Sec. 302. None of the funds appropriated by this Act may be used 
to--
        (1) develop or implement a workforce restructuring plan that 
    covers employees of the Department of Energy; or
        (2) provide enhanced severance payments or other benefits for 
    employees of the Department of Energy, under section 3161 of the 
    National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 1993 (Public Law 
    102-484; 42 U.S.C. 7274h).
    Sec. 303. None of the funds appropriated by this Act may be used to 
augment the funds made available for obligation by this Act for 
severance payments and other benefits and community assistance grants 
under section 3161 of the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal 
Year 1993 (Public Law 102-484; 42 U.S.C. 7274h) unless the Department of 
Energy submits notice thereof to the appropriate congressional 
committees.
    Sec. 304. None of the funds appropriated by this Act may be used to 
prepare or initiate Requests For Proposals (RFPs) for a program if the 
program has not been funded by Congress.
    Sec. 305. The unexpended balances of prior appropriations provided 
for activities in this Act may be available to the same appropriation 
accounts for such activities established pursuant to this title. 
Available balances may be merged with funds in the applicable 
established accounts and thereafter may be accounted for as one fund for 
the same time period as originally enacted.
    Sec. 306. None of the funds in this or any other Act for the 
Administrator of the Bonneville Power Administration may be used to 
enter into any agreement to perform energy efficiency services outside 
the legally defined Bonneville service territory, with the exception of 
services provided internationally, including services provided on a 
reimbursable basis, unless the Administrator certifies in advance that 
such services are not available from private sector businesses.
    Sec. 307. When the Department of Energy makes a user facility 
available to universities or other potential users, or seeks input from 
universities or other potential users regarding significant 
characteristics or equipment in a user facility or a proposed user 
facility, the Department shall ensure broad public notice of such 
availability or such need for input to universities and other potential 
users. When the Department of Energy considers the participation of a 
university or other potential user as a formal partner in the 
establishment or operation of a user facility, the Department shall 
employ full and open competition in selecting such a partner. For 
purposes of this section, the term ``user facility'' includes, but is 
not limited to: (1) a user facility as described in section 2203(a)(2) 
of the Energy Policy Act of 1992 (42 U.S.C. 13503(a)(2)); (2) a National 
Nuclear Security Administration Defense Programs Technology Deployment 
Center/User Facility; and (3) any other Departmental facility designated 
by the Department as a user facility.
    Sec. 308. Funds appropriated by this or any other Act, or made 
available by the transfer of funds in this Act, for intelligence 
activities are deemed to be specifically authorized by the Congress for 
purposes of section 504 of the National Security Act of 1947 (50 U.S.C. 
414) during fiscal year 2008 until the enactment of the Intelligence 
Authorization Act for fiscal year 2008.
    Sec. 309. Sales of Uranium.--(a) In General.--Notwithstanding any 
other provision of Federal law, including section 3112 of the USEC 
Privatization Act (42 U.S.C. 2297h-2) and section 3302 of title 31, 
United States Code, the Secretary of Energy is authorized to barter, 
transfer or sell uranium (including natural uranium concentrates, 
natural uranium hexafluoride, depleted uranium or uranium in any form or 
assay) and to use any proceeds, without fiscal year limitation, to 
remediate uranium inventories held by the Secretary.
    (b) Additional Requirements.--Any barter, transfer or sale of 
uranium under subsection (a) shall reflect fair market value and shall 
not exceed 10 percent of the total annual fuel requirements of all 
licensed nuclear power plants located in the United States for uranium 
concentrates, uranium conversation, or uranium enrichment.
    Sec. 310. Section 312 of the Energy and Water Development 
Appropriations Act, 2004 (Pub. L. 108-137), is amended as follows:
    (1) In the first sentence by inserting between ``the material'' and 
``in the concrete silos'', the words ``formerly stored''; and by 
inserting before the period: ``when such material is disposed at an 
Nuclear Regulatory Commission-regulated or Agreement State-regulated 
facility''; and
    (2) In the second sentence, striking ``for the purpose'' and 
everything that follows, and inserting: ``after the material has been 
disposed at an NRC-regulated or Agreement State-regulated facility. The 
provisions of this section are intended to apply only to materials being 
disposed at NRC-regulated or Agreement State-regulated facilities and 
shall not preclude the materials from otherwise being disposed at 
facilities operated by the Department of Energy so long as the materials 
meet the disposal facility's waste acceptance criteria.''

    Note.--A regular 2007 appropriation for this account had not been 
enacted at the time the budget was prepared; therefore, this account is 
operating under a continuing resolution (P.L. 109-289, Division B, as 
amended). The amounts included for 2007 in this budget reflect the 
levels provided by the continuing resolution.
