         The Salaries and Expenses account funds Operations and Administration, which provides policy oversight and oversees day-to-day
            operations of the Department. This Budget also includes funding for development of an agency Idea Lab and Digital Service
            team.

         The President is again asking Congress to revive an authority enabling him to submit fast-track proposals to reorganize or
            consolidate Federal programs and agencies in order to reduce the size of Government or cut costs.  The Budget includes a variety
            of proposed reforms across government designed to drive efficiency and accountability, prevent duplication, and make government
            work better and smarter for the American people.  One of these reorganizations the President would propose with this authority
            reiterates his previous proposal to consolidate Federal business and trade programs into one more efficient and effective
            department dedicated to promoting U.S. competitiveness, exports, and American businesses and jobs.  The proposal would integrate
            the six Federal agencies that focus primarily on business and trade, along with other related programs.  These include the
            Department of Commerce's core business and trade functions, the Small Business Administration, the Office of the U.S. Trade
            Representative, the Export-Import Bank, the Overseas Private Investment Corporation, and the U.S. Trade and Development Agency,
            as well as rural business programs at the Department of Agriculture, Treasury's Community Development Financial Institution
            Program, and statistical agencies at the Department of Labor and National Science Foundation.  To strengthen the new department's
            focus on business and economic growth, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration would be consolidated into the
            Department of Interior, strengthening stewardship and conservation efforts and enhancing scientific resources. The Budget
            schedules for these agencies and programs continue to reflect them in their current alignment.

         This account funds the Commerce Department's portion of expenses associated with renovating and modernizing the Herbert C.
            Hoover Building (HCHB). The eight-phase renovation and modernization will upgrade infrastructure, remove safety hazards, and
            improve energy efficiency as Commerce optimizes utilization of HCHB space. The General Services Administration (GSA) and Commerce
            are each responsible for certain aspects of the project's costs. Project funding for both GSA and Commerce should occur simultaneously
            so that design, installation, furnishing, and office relocations can be coordinated.

         As the only Federal government agency with a mission and programs focused exclusively on economic development, the Economic
            Development Administration's (EDA) activities include pre-application assistance and development, application processing,
            and project monitoring, as well as general support functions such as economic development research, technical assistance,
            information dissemination, legal and environmental compliance, financial management, budgeting, and debt management. The Budget
            increases support for the Economic Development Administration (EDA) salaries and expenses to bolster the agency's efforts
            in helping local communities and regions maximize the use of available federal economic development resources in creating
            and implementing comprehensive strategies for the growth and competitiveness of businesses in their region.  EDA will draw
            upon lessons learned from its research into best practices for economic development to expand its efforts to aid communities
            through its existing portfolio of programs as well as increasing the awareness of, and coordination with, complementary programs
            from other federal agencies.
         
         The administration and oversight of the Economic Development Administration's programs are carried out utilizing a network
            of headquarters and regional personnel who work with local organizations and leaders to identify and invest in projects that
            demonstrate potential for the greatest economic impact in distressed communities.

            the cost of performing this work.

          The Economic Development Assistance Programs (EDAP)._Economic Development Administration's (EDA) investments are focused in seven broad development assistance programs, which
            include: Economic Adjustment Assistance (EAA), Partnership Planning, Technical Assistance, Public Works, Regional Innovation
            Strategies Program (RISP), Research and Evaluation, and Trade Adjustment Assistance. The EDA provides grants within each of
            these areas to generate or retain jobs, attract new industry and private sector investment, encourage business expansion,
            and serve as a backstop to sudden and severe economic impacts. These investments assist communities characterized by substantial
            and persistent unemployment levels, low income and population growth, loss of jobs, out-migration, and long-term economic
            deterioration. The EDA works in partnership with other Federal agencies, State and local governments, regional economic development
            districts, public and private non-profit organizations, Native American Tribes, and Alaska Native Villages to accomplish its
            mission.In 2016, EDA will continue to place funding priority on investments that drive economic growth, enhance regional competitiveness,
               and diversify the regional and local economy while also seeking to target funds to the Nation's most distressed communities.
               Specifically, the EDA is focused on accelerating the transition to the 21st Century economy by supporting sustainable job
               growth and competitive communities throughout the United States. As part of the 2016 Budget, EDA plans to implement reforms
               to ensure assistance is being delivered to communities with the greatest efficiency and impact.
          EDA is continuing a process of developing metrics to assess economic development in order to provide more effective measures
               of program outcome and improve data collection. The additional metrics will enable economic development practitioners, policy
               makers and funders to understand the impacts of existing programs and to better determine how limited resources should be
               used to build U.S. regional capacity to permit lasting economic development and prosperity.Performance measures._

         The activities of this appropriation provide for the collection, compilation, analysis, and publication of a broad range of
            current economic, demographic, and social statistics.
         
         Current Economic Statistics._These programs provide public and private sector data users with relevant, accurate, and timely national statistical profiles
            of every sector of the U.S. economy to enable businesses and governments to make informed decisions. The FY 2016 budget contains
            funding to restore the Information and Communications Technology Survey (ICTS) suspended in FY 2015. ICTS provides data on
            capitalized and non-capitalized spending for information and communication technology (ICT) equipment and computer software.
         
          Current Demographic Statistics._These programs conduct surveys and data analyses to provide social and economic information on monthly, quarterly, and annual
            bases that policymakers and others need in order to make effective policy and program decisions.
         
         
         Survey of Program Dynamics (SPD)._ The program is supported by a transfer of funding from the Contingency Fund for State Welfare Programs established under
            Section 403(b) of the Social Security Act (42 U.S.C. 603 (b)). The SPD program provides provide policymakers with relevant,
            accurate, timely, and cost-effective socio-economic data and information, which can be used by federal and state public policymakers
            to evaluate the effects of the Personal Responsibility and Work Opportunity Reconciliation Act of 1996 that established the
            Temporary Assistance for Needy Families Program.
         
         State Children's Health Insurance Program (SCHIP)._Mandatory appropriations are provided by the Medicare, Medicaid, and State Children's Health Insurance Program Balanced Budget
            Refinement Act of 1999. The program is designed to support data collection by the Current Population Survey (CPS) on the number
            of low-income children who do not have health insurance coverage. Data from this enhanced survey are used in the formula to
            allocate funds to States under the SCHIP program.
         
         Proposed budget restructure for FY 2016._The FY 2016 request includes a proposed budget restructuring. In the proposal, the title of this appropriation is changed
            from Salaries and Expenses to Current Surveys and Programs to better reflect the programmatic nature of the activities supported
            by this funding. Additionally, the restructuring transfers the Intercensal Demographic Estimates and the Demographic Surveys
            Sample Redesign programs to the Current Demographic Statistics PPA in this appropriation. The proposal also transfers a portion
            of the Data Processing Systems program to this appropriation. Finally, the Survey Development and Data Services program is
            abolished and funding for research activities in this program is transferred to the Current Economic statistics, Current Demographic
            statistics and Decennial Census programs.

         This appropriation funds legislatively mandated periodic economic and demographic censuses and other authorized activities.
            Major programs include the five-year economic census and census of governments, and the decennial census. In addition, other
            programs provide annual population estimates, updated survey sample designs, and bureau-wide geographic and data processing
            systems and support.
         
         
         Periodic Economic Programs._The Periodic Economic Programs include the Economic Census and the Census of Governments. These programs are integral to the
            Bureau of Economic Analysis (BEA) estimates of gross domestic product (GDP), industry inputs and outputs, and the economic
            activities of more than 90,000 state and local governments. Together, these programs measure the structure and functioning
            of nearly the entire U.S. economy. Program activities in FY 2016 include releases of data from the 2012 Economic Census and
            planning and preparatory activities for the 2017 Economic Census and the 2017 Census of Governments.
         
         Decennial Census._FY 2016 is the second year of a four-year phase (FY2015âFY2018) focused on beginning operational design, development, and
            system testing for the 2020 Census. Following the completion of the initial design decision in late 2015, the Census Bureau
            will immediately begin integrating systems and innovations identified in the 2020 Census design that have the potential to
            save billions compared to the cost of repeating the 2010 Census design. These savings will be achieved by reengineering the
            address canvasing operation, optimizing self-response, reengineering the management and conduct of major field operations,
            and utilizing information already provided to the Government to reduce costly fieldwork whenever possible. Work in FY 2016
            includes the development, testing, and scale-up of Census operations that incorporate these design innovations and systems
            to support operations. Additionally the Census Bureau will continue activities to improve census coverage, content, and data
            quality. The funding for the American Community Survey (ACS) is part of the 2020 Decennial Program. The FY 2016 request includes
            funding to restore operations and activities that improve the quality of ACS data, develop new data products and conduct research
            on content, quality, efficiency, and reducing respondent burden and intrusiveness.
         
         
         Geographic Support._The goal of the geographic support program is to provide address lists, address and geographic reference files, delineated
            geographic areas, maps, and associated processing systems needed to meet the geographic requirements of all Census Bureau
            programs. In FY 2016, the request supports continued work on applying quality indicators that will lead to a current address
            list for use in the 2020 Census as well as the ACS and current surveys. Information acquired as part of this request contributes
            to the estimated cost savings that will be achieved by the 2020 Census design decisions and informs plans for the field operations
            infrastructure.
         
         
         Enterprise Data Collection & Dissemination Systems._The objective of the program is to support major data collection, processing and dissemination systems for the Census Bureau's
            censuses and surveys. The FY 2016 budget request supports the second year of an initiative to support a Census Enterprise
            Data Collection and Processing (CEDCaP) initiative which will create an integrated standardized "system of systems" that will
            replace unique, survey-specific systems with an enterprise solution. Initiatives that support dissemination activities have
            also been standardized and incorporated into this program.
         
         Administrative Records Clearinghouse._The FY 2016 budget also includes an initiative for Administrative Records Clearinghouse that will provide the federal government
            with increased capacity to make data-driven decisions about critical programs and provide transparency about program effectiveness
            to the public by developing a more comprehensive infrastructure for linking, sharing, and analyzing key Federal- and State-held
            administrative datasets.
         
         Proposed budget restructure for FY 2016._The FY 2016 request includes a proposed budget restructuring to better align programmatic activities, simplify the appropriations
            structure, lead to greater transparency in the budget, and lead to improved management of scarce resources. This proposal
            transfers the Intercensal Demographic Estimates and the Demographic Surveys Sample Redesign programs to the Current Surveys
            and Programs appropriation. This proposal also consolidates the Economic Census and Census of Governments PPAs into a new
            PPA titled Periodic Economic Programs reflecting changes in program governance resulting from a recent reorganization of the
            Census Bureau's Economic Directorate. Additionally, the Data Processing Systems (DPS) program is abolished and the funding
            is transferred to the programs that support the Information Technology activities formerly funded in DPS. In its place, a
            new program titled Enterprise Data Collection and Processing Systems is established. This new program includes CEDCaP and
            other data collection, processing, and dissemination systems that support the enterprise. Finally, a portion of the Survey
            development and data services program that was abolished in the CS&P appropriation is transferred to the Decennial census
            program.

         Bureau of Economic Analysis (BEA)._The Bureau of Economic Analysis (BEA), a principal Federal statistical agency, promotes a better understanding of the U.S.
            economy by providing timely, relevant, and accurate economic accounts data in an objective and cost-effective manner. BEA's
            national, industry, regional, and international economic statistics present crucial information on key issues such as U.S.
            economic growth, regional economic development, inter-industry relationships, and the Nation's position in the world economy.
            These key statistics provide a comprehensive picture of the U.S. economy and affect decisions related to interest and exchange
            rates, tax and budget projections, and business investment plans. The statistics are used by Federal, State, and local governments
            for budget development and projections and to allocate over $300 billion in Federal funds. The statistics are also used by
            the American public to follow and understand the performance of the Nation's economy. Some of the Bureau's widely used statistical
            measures include gross domestic product (GDP), personal income and outlays, corporate profits, GDP by state and by metropolitan
            area, balance of payments, and GDP by industry. BEA's strategic vision is to remain the world's most respected producer of
            economic accounts.  The 2016 Budget proposes an energy satellite account that would provide inflation-adjusted measures of
            industry outputs, inputs, and value added, including the energy sector's contribution to overall GDP growth and price change,
            and economic statistics to evaluate the impacts of structural changes related to energy in the U.S. economy.  The 2016 Budget
            also proposes an initiative that would inform trade negotiations and support trade promotion efforts by expanding and improving
            the data published on some of the most dynamic service trade industries with high value jobs.  Finally, BEA requests new resources
            to support the plan to consolidate their office space with the Census Bureau in Suitland, MD.
         
         Economics and Statistics Administration (ESA) Policy support._ESA headquarters conducts economic research and policy analysis in direct support of the Secretary of Commerce. ESA also provides
            management oversight of the Census Bureau and BEA. In addition, ESA provides economic and statistical data and analyses to
            other Federal agencies, individuals, and firms requesting such information through reimbursable funding. The Census Bureau
            and BEA reimburse ESA headquarters for certain administrative, financial, and policy services.

         The mission of the International Trade Administration (ITA) is to create prosperity by strengthening the international competitiveness
            of U.S. industry, promoting trade and investment, and ensuring fair trade and compliance with trade laws and agreements. ITA
            leads the Department's export and investment platform, working with several other bureaus both within and outside the Department
            to achieve this goal. 
         
         ITA, through its programs, services, and workforce, leverages its relationships with and understanding of industry and its
            domestic and overseas field presence to serve a range of customers and stakeholders. The organization consists of three business
            units that work together to achieve ITA's mission effectively and efficiently: (1) Industry and Analysis; (2) Enforcement
            and Compliance; and (3) Global Markets. The combination of industry sector, regional, and trade expertise, alongside export
            promotion, enforcement and compliance, and policy responsibilities, enables ITA to analyze customers issues and needs holistically;
            support export promotion and trade enforcement efforts in key, growing markets abroad; promote the United States as a premier
            investment destination and help state and local governments attract investment capital to create and support jobs; and conduct
            related activities.

         The Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS) advances U.S. national security, foreign policy, and economic objectives by administering
            and enforcing controls on the export of sensitive goods and technologies. BIS also enforces antiboycott laws, monitors the
            economic viability of the U.S. defense industry, and assists U.S. companies in complying with certain international arms agreements.
            The 2016 Budget continues to provide for positions that are critical to the Administration's Export Control Reform (ECR) Initiative,
            which fundamentally reforms the U.S. export control system. The ECR Initiative is designed to enhance U.S. national security
            and strengthen the United States' ability to counter threats such as the proliferation of weapons of mass destruction.

         The mission of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) is to understand and predict changes in the Earth's
            environment and to conserve and manage coastal and marine resources to meet our Nation's economic, social, and environmental
            needs.
         
         NOAA executes activities to achieve its mission through six line offices:
         National Ocean Service (NOS)._NOS programs work to promote safe navigation; assess and restore the health of coastal and marine resources ; improve coastal
            communities' resilience to extreme weather events, climate hazards, and changing ocean conditions and uses; and conserve the
            coastal ocean environment.
         
         National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS)._NMFS programs provide for the management and conservation of the Nation's living marine resources including fish stocks, marine
            mammals, and endangered species and their habitats within the United States Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ). As part of the
            Administration's Infrastructure Permitting initiative, NMFS is targeting resources to expedite and improve Endangered Species
            Act consultations and other related processes. 
         
         Office of Oceanic and Atmospheric Research (OAR)._OAR programs provide climate, weather, air chemistry, ocean and coastal research and technology with applications across NOAA's
            mission. To accomplish these goals, OAR supports a network of scientists in its Federal research laboratories, universities,
            and cooperative institutes and partnership programs. High priority programs include the Administration's Climate Resilience
            Toolkit, which will provide resources and tools to help communities understand and address climate issues, along with an expanded
            Ocean Acidification Program. This program increase will help improve understanding of the consequences of ocean acidification
            and inform efforts to mitigate, prepare, and adapt to changing ocean conditions.
         
         National Weather Service (NWS)._NWS programs provide timely and accurate meteorological, hydrologic, and oceanographic warnings and forecasts to ensure the
            safety of the population, minimize property losses, and improve the economic productivity of the Nation.
         
         National Environmental Satellite, Data, and Information Service (NESDIS)._NESDIS operates polar orbiting and geostationary satellites, and collects and archives global environmental data and information
            for distribution to private and public sector users.
         
         Program Support._Program Support provides management and administrative support for NOAA, including acquisition and grant administration, budget,
            accounting functions, and human resources. Through the Office of Marine and Aviation Operations (OMAO), it provides aircraft
            and marine data acquisition, fleet repair and maintenance, and operations that provide technical and management support for
            NOAA-wide activities.
         
         Foreign Fishing Observer Fund._The Foreign Fishing Observer Fund is financed through fees collected from owners and operators of foreign fishing vessels
            fishing within the U.S. EEZ (such fishing requires a permit issued under the Magnuson-Stevens Act). The fund is used by NOAA
            to pay salaries, administrative costs, data editing and entry costs, and other costs incurred in placing observers aboard
            foreign fishing vessels.

         The Gulf Coast Ecosystem Restoration Science, Observation, Monitoring and Technology Fund provides funding for the NOAA RESTORE
            Act Science Program. The purpose of this program is to initiate and sustain an integrative, holistic understanding of the
            Gulf of Mexico ecosystem and support, to the maximum extent practicable, restoration efforts and the long-term sustainability
            of the ecosystem, including its fish stocks, fishing industries, habitat, and wildlife through ecosystem research, observation,
            monitoring, and technology development. To ensure the best use of resources the Program will coordinate with existing federal
            and state science and technology programs, including other activities funded under the RESTORE Act. Section 1604 of the RESTORE
            Act authorized funding for the Program by providing 2.5% of the funds made available through the Gulf Coast Restoration Trust
            Fund.

         This account funds capital acquisition, construction, and fleet and aircraft replacement projects that support NOAA's operational
            mission across all line offices. The 2016 Budget maintains continuity of satellite coverage needed for weather forecasting.
            Specifically, the Budget funds the development of NOAA's geostationary and polar-orbiting satellites, initiates the follow-on
            to the polar satellite program to ensure continuity of critical weather data, and supports satellite-borne measurements of
            potentially damaging solar storms. The 2016 Budget includes funding to complete the post-launch operations for the JASON-3
            sea level mission, but transitions the development and sustainment of future space-based ocean altimetry systems to NASA.
            The Budget also transfers TSIS-1 to NASA consistent with the Administration's decision to move solar irradiance measurements
            to NASA. The Budget supports NOAA's broad environmental mission and redefines NASA and NOAA Earth-observing satellite responsibilities
            whereby NOAA will be responsible only for satellite missions which contribute directly to NOAA's ability to issue weather
            and space weather forecasts and warnings to protect life and property. The Budget provides funding to update National Weather
            Service IT infrastructure to improve system reliability, supercomputing capacity, and accommodate a substantial increase in
            satellite observations that will help to improve weather warnings and forecasts. The Budget also supports the construction
            of one ocean class vessel to maintain NOAA's research and survey capabilities. To the extent possible, this investment will
            optimize capacity to meet multiple agencies' mission requirements.

         Under the authority of the Magnuson-Stevens Act Section 304(d)(2)(A), NMFS must collect a fee to recover the incremental costs
            of management, data collection, and enforcement of Limited Access Privilege (LAP) Programs. Funds collected under this authority
            are deposited into the Limited Access System Administrative Fund. Fees shall not exceed three percent of the ex-vessel value
            of fish harvested under any such program, and shall be collected at either the time of the landing, filing of a landing report,
            or sale of such fish during a fishing season or in the last quarter of the calendar year in which the fish is harvested. The
            Limited Access Administration Fund shall be available, without appropriation or fiscal year limitation, only for the purposes
            of administering the central registry system and administering and implementing the Magnuson-Stevens Act in the fishery in
            which the fees were collected. Sums in the fund that are not currently needed for these purposes shall be kept on deposit
            or invested in obligations of, or guaranteed by the U.S. Also, in establishing a LAP program, a Regional Council can consider,
            and may provide, if appropriate, an auction system or other program to collect royalties for the initial or any subsequent
            distribution of allocations. If an auction system is developed, revenues from these royalties are deposited in the Limited
            Access System Administration Fund.

         The Pacific Coastal Salmon Recovery Fund account was established in 2000 to augment State, tribal, and local programs to conserve
            and restore sustainable Pacific salmon populations and their habitats. Through 2014, over $1.0 billion has been provided to
            the States of California, Oregon, Washington, Alaska, and Idaho and to the Pacific Coastal and Columbia River Tribes to supplement
            State and Federal programs and promote the development of partnerships among Federal, State, tribal, and local governments
            to conserve salmon. The States and Tribes have used these funds for restoring salmon and steelhead populations that are listed
            as threatened or endangered, or identified by a State as at risk of such listing; maintaining populations necessary for exercise
            of tribal treaty fishing rights or native subsistence fishing; or restoring and conserving Pacific coastal salmon and steelhead
            habitat.

         The Sanctuaries Enforcement Asset Forfeiture Fund receives proceeds from civil penalties and forfeiture claims against responsible
            parties, as determined through court settlements or agreements, for violations of NOAA sanctuary regulations. Funds are expended
            for resource protection purposes which may include all aspects of law enforcement (from equipment to labor), community-oriented
            policing programs, and other resource protection and management measures such as the installation of mooring buoys or restoration
            of injured resources.

         This account includes amounts necessary to finance the cost of Tricare retirement health care benefits accrued by the active
            duty members of the NOAA Commissioned Corps. The Ronald W. Reagan National Defense Authorization Act for 2005 (P.L. 108â375)
            provided permanent, indefinite appropriations to finance these costs for all uniformed service members. As these costs are
            borne in support of NOAA's mission, they are shown as part of the NOAA discretionary total. Total obligations on behalf of
            active NOAA Commissioned Corps personnel include both the wages and related amounts requested for appropriation and amounts
            paid from the permanent, indefinite authority.

         Section 311(e)(1) of the Magnuson-Stevens Fishery Conservation and Management Act (MSA) authorizes the Secretary of Commerce
            (Secretary) to pay certain enforcement-related expenses from fines, penalties and forfeiture proceeds received for violations
            of the Magnuson-Stevens Act, or of any other marine resource law enforced by the Secretary. Pursuant to this authority, NOAA
            established an account for these receipts, the Fisheries Enforcement Asset Forfeiture Fund (AFF). Certain fines, penalties
            and forfeiture proceeds received by NOAA are deposited into this Fund and subsequently used to pay for certain enforcement-related
            expenses. When Congress authorized the AFF it was deemed appropriate to use these proceeds to offset in part the costs of
            administering the enforcement program. Expenses include the following: costs directly related to the storage, maintenance,
            and care of seized fish, vessels, or other property during a civil or criminal proceeding; reimbursement to other Federal
            or State agencies for enforcement related services provided pursuant to an agreement entered into with the Secretary; and
            other limited uses as outlined in NOAA's Asset Forfeiture Fund policy. The NMFS Office of Law Enforcement (OLE) manages the
            AFF, which is used by OLE and NOAA General Counsel for Enforcement and Litigation to pay for enforcement activities.

         An amount equal to 30 percent of the gross receipts from customs duties on imported fishery products is transferred to the
            Department of Commerce annually from the Department of Agriculture. A portion of the funds is transferred to offset the appropriation
            requirements for fisheries research and management in the Operations, Research, and Facilities account. Any remaining funds
            support the Saltonstall-Kennedy grants program for fisheries research and development projects to enhance the productivity
            and improve the sustainable yield of domestic marine fisheries resources.
         
      
         Fishermen's Contingency FundFor carrying out the provisions of title IV of Public Law 95â372, not to exceed $350,000, to be derived from receipts collected
         pursuant to that Act, to remain available until expended. (Department of Commerce Appropriations Act, 2015.)
      
         The Fishermen's Contingency Fund is authorized under Section 402 of Title IV of the Outer Continental Shelf Lands Act Amendments
            of 1978. NOAA compensates U.S. commercial fishermen for damage or loss of fishing gear, vessels, and resulting economic loss
            caused by obstructions related to oil and gas exploration, development, and production in any area of the Outer Continental
            Shelf. The funds used to provide this compensation are derived from fees collected by the Secretary of the Interior from the
            holders of leases, exploration permits, easements, or rights-of-way in areas of the Outer Continental Shelf. This activity
            is funded entirely through user fees. Disbursements can be made only to the extent authorized in appropriation acts.

         In 2013 the North Pacific Observer Fund was established to support the restructured North Pacific Groundfish Observer Program
            (NPGOP). The new observer program places all vessels and processors in the groundfish and halibut fisheries off Alaska into
            one of two observer coverage categories: (1) a full coverage category, and (2) a partial coverage category. Vessels and processors
            in the full coverage category (100% observer coverage) will obtain observers by contracting directly with observer providers.
            Vessels and processors in the partial coverage category (less than 100% observer coverage) will no longer contract independently
            with an observer provider, and will be required to carry an observer when they are selected through the Observer Declare and
            Deploy System (ODDS). Additionally, landings from all vessels in the partial coverage category will be assessed a 1.25 percent
            fee on standard ex-vessel prices of the landed catch weight of groundfish and halibut to be deposited in the North Pacific
            Observer Fund. The fee percentage is set in regulation and will be reviewed periodically by the North Pacific Fishery Management
            Council. The money generated by this fee will be used to pay for observer coverage on the vessels and processors in the partial
            coverage category in the following year.

         This fund consists of loan repayments from the former Coastal Energy Impact Program. The Department of Commerce Appropriations
            Act, 2012, cancelled all balances in the Coastal Zone Management Fund, made future payments to the Fund subject to the Federal
            Credit Reform Act of 1990, and eliminated the annual transfer from this account to the Operations, Research, and Facilities
            account. The display below includes reporting information consistent with all other credit liquidating accounts.

         The Damage Assessment and Restoration Revolving Fund is authorized under Section 1012(a) of the Oil Pollution Act of 1990,
            for the deposit of sums provided by any party or governmental entity to respond to the environmental effects of discharges
            of oil and other hazardous substances. Through the Revolving Fund, NOAA retains funds that are recovered through settlement
            or awarded by a court for the assessment and restoration of injured natural resources. NOAA also ensures deposited funds shall
            remain available to the trustee, without further appropriation, until expended to pay costs associated with the response,
            damage assessment, and restoration of natural resources.
         
         These program functions are conducted jointly within NOAA by the Office of General Counsel, the National Ocean Service, and
            the National Marine Fisheries Service.

         The Fisheries Finance Program (FFP) is a national loan program that makes long-term fixed-rate financing available to U.S.
            citizens who otherwise qualify for financing or refinancing of the construction, reconstruction, reconditioning, and, in some
            cases, the purchasing of fishing vessels, shoreside processing, aquaculture, and mariculture facilities. The FFP also provides
            fishery-wide financing to ease the transition to sustainable fisheries through its fishing capacity reduction programs and
            provides financial assistance in the form of loans to fishermen who fish from small vessels and entry-level fishermen to promote
            stability and reduce consolidation in already rationalized fisheries. Additionally, FFP can provide loans for fisheries investments
            of Native American Community Development Quota groups.
         
         The FFP operates under the authority of Title XI of the Merchant Marine Act of 1936, as amended; Section 303(a) of the Sustainable
            Fisheries Act amendments to the Magnuson-Stevens Act; and, from time to time FFP-specific legislation. The overriding guideline
            for all FFP financings is that they cannot contribute or be construed to contribute to an increase in existing fishing capacity.
         
         The Budget includes $10.3 million to implement Section 3095 of the 2015 National Defense Authorization Act, which would modify
            and refinance the west coast groundfish fishery's existing debt related to a capacity reduction program.

         The United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) issues patents and registers trademarks, which provide protection to
            inventors and businesses for their inventions and corporate and product identifications. USPTO also advises other U.S. Government
            agencies on intellectual property issues and promotes stronger intellectual property protections in other countries. USPTO
            is funded through fees that are paid to obtain and renew patents and trademarks.
         
         Patent program._Requested funding for 2016 will be used for examining patent applications and granting patents. USPTO will continue its aggressive
            patent pendency reduction agenda to reduce overall pendency and backlog; continue to enhance patent quality; ensure optimal
            information technology service delivery to all users; improve appeal and post-grant processes; and improve intellectual property
            protections worldwide. The Budget supports USPTO's administrative efforts to address abusive patent litigation practices and
            repeats the President's call for Congress to enact legislation that promotes greater transparency in the U.S. patent system
            and prevents frivolous lawsuits that stifle innovation.
         
         Trademark program._The 2016 Budget provides resources for examining trademark applications; registering trademarks; maintaining high trademark
            quality; ensuring optimal information technology service delivery to all users; and improving trademark practices worldwide.

         The mission of the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) is to promote U.S. innovation and industrial competitiveness
            by advancing measurement science, standards, and technology in ways that enhance economic security and improve our quality
            of life. The NIST laboratory programs work at the frontiers of measurement science to ensure that the U.S. system of measurements
            is firmly grounded on sound scientific and technical principles. Today, the NIST laboratories address increasingly complex
            measurement challenges, ranging from the very small (nanoscale devices) to the very large (vehicles and buildings), and from
            the physical (renewable energy sources) to the virtual (cybersecurity and cloud computing).
         
         The NIST laboratory programs provide industry, academia, and other federal agencies with scientific underpinnings for basic
            and derived measurement units, international standards, measurement and calibration services, and certified reference materials.
            NIST laboratory programs also provide expertise in basic and applied research to enable development of test methods and verified
            data, support the development of consensus-based standards and specifications, and provide user facilities that support innovation
            in materials science, nanotechnology discovery and fabrication, and other emerging technology areas through the NIST Center
            for Neutron Research and the NIST Center for Nanoscale Science and Technology.  Administration initiative areas in FY 2016
            within STRS include research and development investments in ensuring a world class neutron research facility, advanced communications,
            disaster resilient buildings and infrastructure, cybersecurity/cryptography, advanced sensing for manufacturing, smart cities
            cyber physical systems, Materials Genome Initiative, bio-manufacturing, manufacturing entrepreneurship, and the Lab-to-Markets
            initiative.

         The President's Budget request is $306 million for the Industrial Technology Services (ITS) appropriation, which consists
               of three programs, the Hollings Manufacturing Extension Partnership (MEP), the Advanced Manufacturing Technology Consortia
               program (AMTech), and the newly authorized National Network for Manufacturing Innovation (NNMI).
         
         Hollings Manufacturing Extension Partnership (MEP)._MEP is a Federal-State-industry partnership that provides U.S. manufacturers with access to technologies, resources, and industry
            experts. The program consists of 60 MEP Centers that work directly with their local manufacturing communities to strengthen
            the competitiveness of our Nation's domestic manufacturing base. MEP supports the mission of NIST and the Department of Commerce
            to promote U.S. innovation and competitiveness and enable economic growth for American industries, workers, and consumers.
            Services provided by MEP are grounded in technology-related activities, sustainability, efficiencies through continuous improvement,
            and new product development and market diversification. In FY 2013, MEP began a broad based strategic planning process and
            developed an operational reform agenda intended to optimize program effectiveness, enhance administrative efficiency, and
            provide greater financial accountability. In FY 2014, MEP initiated a reform of the national system of MEP centers through
            a systematic, multi-year series of full and open competitions. These re-competition efforts are ongoing and will continue
            in FY 2016. The request for MEP is $141 million and includes an $11 million increase for the program.In support of these reforms the Administration urges Congress to consider the potential benefits of adjusting the cost share
               requirement from the current 2:1 ratio of non-federal to federal funds, which will provide the program with greater flexibility
               to develop innovative tools and assist small to mid-sized enterprises in workforce development, technology acceleration, manufacturing
               scale up, and domestic supply chain optimization.
         
         ._Advanced Manufacturing Technology Consortia (AMTech) AMTech will provide grants to develop and support existing or new industry-led consortia on high-impact advanced manufacturing
            topics. Funding will include additional grants for consortia formation and development, and technology roadmapping that identifies
            the long-term research needs, critical gaps and optimal approaches of industry. In addition, funding of existing consortia
            will take the form of merit-based grants to implement and enable the early stage, industry-led, long-term research identified
            by AMTech planning grant award teams. The request for AMTech is $15.0 million and includes a $6.9 million increase for the
            program.
         
         
         National Network for Manufacturing Innovation (NNMI). â The request provides funds for Federal investment in the National Network for Manufacturing Innovation (NNMI), which will
               serve to create an effective manufacturing research infrastructure for U.S. industry and academia to solve industry-relevant
               problems. The newly authorized NNMI will consist of linked Institutes for Manufacturing Innovation (IMIs) with common goals,
               but unique concentrations. In an IMI, industry, academia, and government partners leverage existing resources, collaborate,
               and co-invest to nurture manufacturing innovation and accelerate commercialization. As sustainable manufacturing innovation
               hubs, IMIs will create, showcase, and deploy new capabilities, new products, and new processes that can impact commercial
               production. They will build workforce skills at all levels and enhance manufacturing capabilities in companies large and small.
               Institutes will draw together the best talents and capabilities from all the partners to build the proving grounds where innovations
               flourish and to help advance American domestic manufacturing. The request includes $150 million for the program to cover the
               full five years costs of two Institutes as well as coordination efforts.

         As part of its efforts to revitalize U.S. manufacturing, the Administration is proposing mandatory funding to complete the
            buildout of a National Network of Manufacturing Innovation (NNMI), consisting of 45 institutes where researchers, companies,
            and entrepreneurs can come together to develop new manufacturing technologies with broad applications.  Each institute will
            have a unique technology focus.  These institutes will help support an ecosystem of manufacturing activity in local areas.
            The Manufacturing Innovation Institutes will support manufacturing technology commercialization by allowing new manufacturing
            processes and technologies to progress more smoothly from basic research to implementation in manufacturing.  
         
         The NNMI Federal investment is designed to catalyze industry and non-federal co-investment in advanced manufacturing.  Each
            institute is expected to have a plan to become self-sustaining and fully independent of NNMI Federal funds five to seven years
            after launch.  The $1.9 billion mandatory funding proposal will support 29 institutes, building on the nine institutes already
            funded through 2015 and the Budget's support of seven new manufacturing institutes in the Departments of Commerce, Agriculture,
            Defense, and Energy.

         The National Telecommunications and Information Administration (NTIA) is the principal Executive Branch adviser on domestic
            and international telecommunications and Internet policy. NTIA also manages the Federal Government's use of the radio frequency
            spectrum and performs extensive research in telecommunication sciences. During FY 2016, NTIA will continue to evaluate options
            for repurposing spectrum for broadband use, in support of the President's goal of making 500 MHz of spectrum available for
            wireless broadband use by 2020. In support of this effort and NTIA's core mission, the 2016 Budget: (1) continues to provide
            spectrum assignment and analysis support to Federal agencies; (2) takes a more direct leadership role in managing the U.S.
            domestic and international Internet policy agenda to promote an open, unregulated Internet platform that encourages economic
            growth and innovation, while addressing concerns over consumer privacy and other threats to the internet; and (3) completes
            the administration of the Broadband Technology Opportunities Program (BTOP), a series of broadband grants awarded under the
            American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009, and ensures appropriate close-out and recovery of unused funds. Additionally,
            NTIA will leverage the expertise and lessons gained from administering the BTOP grant program to launch BroadbandUSA, which
            will encourage partnerships among State, municipal, non-profit, and private sector organizations and support deployment of
            new community broadband systems through online and in-person technical assistance, regional workshops, and guides and tools
            providing proven solutions to problems in broadband planning, financing, construction, and operations.

         The Middle Class Tax Relief and Job Creation Act of 2012 provided $135 million in borrowing authority for grants to States
            and localities to plan for the build-out of a nationwide broadband network for first responders. Proceeds from spectrum auctions
            through the Public Safety Trust Fund will reimburse these costs in FY 2015. Activity in FY 2016 and beyond is for the administration
            of grants previously awarded.

         The Middle Class Tax Relief and Job Creation Act of 2012 created the First Responder Network Authority (FirstNet) to manage
            the construction, deployment, and operations of a nationwide, interoperable public safety broadband network for use by first
            responders. FirstNet is an independent entity within the Department of Commerce's National Telecommunications and Information
            Administration and is overseen by a 15-member Board comprised of representatives from the first responder community, Federal
            agencies, and the private sector. The Act also created the Network Construction Fund to receive transfers from the Public
            Safety Trust Fund in support of the construction and deployment of the nationwide broadband network, as well as to provide
            funding to states who may choose to opt out. The spending authority presented in the Budget comprises the full amount of authorized
            funding for the Network Construction Fund and FirstNet, which are derived from proceeds of spectrum auctions, including the
            AWS-3 auction.  The FY 2015 obligation and outlay activity reflect Board-approved budget decisions made through December 2014,
            which the Board may subsequently revise.  As of February 2015, the FirstNet Board had not approved FY 2016 obligation and
            outlay levels, so those amounts reflect preliminary projections. The estimates will be updated upon approval of requirements
            and associated funding amounts by the FirstNet Board.

         The Middle Class Tax Relief and Job Creation Act of 2012 (the Act) authorized the repurposing of spectrum from private license
            holders to wireless broadband through the use of specified auctions. Proceeds from these auctions net of certain costs will
            be deposited in the Public Safety Trust Fund. The Act directs that up to $7 billion of these proceeds be used to support the
            establishment of a nationwide, interoperable public safety broadband network for use by first responders and further authorizes
            additional transfers for planning and research activities related to emergency communications. The Act created the First Responder
            Network Authority (FirstNet) within the National Telecommunications and Information Administration (NTIA) to manage the building,
            deployment, and operations of a nationwide network and allows NTIA to borrow $2 billion prior to the auctions authorized by
            the Act to support the establishment of the network.
         
         NTIA borrowed $2 billion in FY 2014 as authorized by the Act. Also in FY 2014, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC)
            transferred $1.2 billion in auction proceeds from the H block auction to the Public Safety Trust Fund. This amount funded
            partial repayment to Treasury for the borrowings made by NTIA for FirstNet start-up costs and NTIA oversight.
         
         The Public Safety Trust Fund is expected to receive significant transfers from the FCC in FY 2015 as a result of the Advanced
            Wireless Services 3 (AWS-3) auction, as directed by the Act. This transfer will provide full funding for the various programs
            and transfers authorized by that Act such as public safety communications research at the National Institute for Standards
            and Technology and Next Generation E-911 at the Department of Transportation. The transfer will also provide for the repayment
            of still-outstanding NTIA borrowing and cover a transfer to Treasury's General Fund for deficit reduction.
         
         The amounts presented in the budget schedules for this account for FY 2016 reflect projections of obligations and outlays
            for NTIA oversight and FirstNet administrative costs. Programmatic work for FirstNet network construction and grants to States
            authorized by Section 6302 of the Act are presented in the Network Construction Fund.
         
         As of February 2015, the FirstNet Board had not determined final obligation and outlay estimates for FY 2016. Estimates will
            be updated upon approval of requirements by the FirstNet Board. This account also funds NTIA oversight of FirstNet and related
