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 governments and businesses to make informed decisions. In 2020, the Current Economic Statistics programs will partner with the Bureau of Economic Analysis to develop the framework for a US Federal Data Service that supports research and increased partnership with third-party data providers to accelerate data innovation and solve complex data challenges.

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 to make effective policy and program decisions. In 2020, the Current Demographic Statistics programs will continue to implement operational and methodological efficiencies to several surveys and programs, while preserving the fundamental social and economic data that inform effective public and private decision-making, and conduct research on evaluating and improving current U.S. poverty measurement methods and indicators, including the supplemental poverty measure.

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.

This appropriation funds legislatively mandated periodic economic and demographic censuses and other authorized activities. Major programs include the periodic economic programs (including the five-year economic census and census of governments), the American Community Survey, and the decennial census. In addition, other programs provide bureau-wide geographic information and data collection and dissemination systems.

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 estimates of gross domestic product, 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 the U.S. economy. For 2020, the Census Bureau will continue processing and review of the 2017 Economic Census data and will release data to the Bureau of Economic Analysis for use in setting the baseline for gross domestic product and other Principal Economic Indicators, as well as continue processing and dissemination of the Pension and Finance components of the Census of Governments. Additionally, planning activities will begin for the 2022 Economic Census and Census of Governments.

Decennial Census.—April 1, 2020 is Census Day and marks the culmination of nearly a decade of design, research, and testing to meet the Department of Commerce's goal of conducting a complete and accurate decennial census. In 2020, the Census Bureau will conduct the major self-response and non-response operations of the 2020 Census, as well as opening field offices, recruiting and onboarding hundreds of thousands of field staff, and printing and mailing 1.5 billion pieces of mail materials, including census questionnaires. The advertising campaign and the partnership program will be operating at peak intensity to increase awareness and encourage participation in the 2020 Census. Additionally, data processing, editing, and preparation for publishing of census data will begin for fulfillment of the Census Bureau's constitutional mandate to deliver apportionment counts to the President and redistricting data to the states in fiscal year 2021.

The American Community Survey (ACS), part of the Decennial Census Program, provides current demographic, social, economic, and housing information about America's communities, from the largest cities to the smallest rural communities. The ACS, supported by a complete and accurate address system, has simplified the census design resulting in improvements in both coverage and data quality, while providing current data on detailed population, social, economic, and housing characteristics. In 2020, the ACS will continue researching and implementing methods to improve operational efficiencies.

Geographic Support.—The Geographic Support program provides address lists and supports partnerships with all levels of government and geographic areas, geospatial data products, and associated processing systems needed to meet the geographic requirements of all Census Bureau programs, including the 2020 Census.

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. In 2020, the Census Enterprise Data Collection and Processing program will deploy scaled and secured systems in support of peak operations for the 2020 Census. The Center for Enterprise Data Services and Consumer Innovation program will focus on the development of citizen-centric dissemination methods for the 2020 Census data products. Additionally, the Census Bureau continues to support the Administrative Records Clearinghouse in providing the Federal government with increased capacity to make data-driven decisions about critical programs and provide transparency about program effectiveness.

As noted in the General Notes for the Budget, at the time the budget was prepared, seven 2019 annual appropriations bills were operating under a continuing resolution (Public Law 115–245, as amended).

Bureau of Economic Analysis (BEA).—BEA, a principal Federal statistical agency, promotes a better understanding of the U.S. economy by providing timely, relevant, and accurate economic data in an objective and cost-effective manner. BEA's strategic vision is to remain the world's most respected producer of economic accounts. Its 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 support the allocation of over $400 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, balance of payments, and GDP by state, metropolitan area, industry and county. The Bureau also strives to develop new statistics that spotlight key sectors and trends in the economy such as healthcare, outdoor recreation and technological innovation. In 2020, BEA will partner with the Office of the Undersecretary for Economic Affairs and the Census Bureau to develop the framework for a U.S. Federal Data Service that supports research and increased partnership with third-party data providers to accelerate data innovation and solve complex data challenges.

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 an 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 customer issues and needs holistically, and support trade enforcement and export promotion efforts in key, growing markets abroad.

The Budget proposes a cancellation of $3 million of unobligated balances made available in prior years.

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 Budget enhances BIS's ability to strengthen, streamline, and manage the U.S. export control, while increasing BIS's capability to complete effective investigations and assessments that identify the impacts of imports of industry-specific products have on U.S. national security. The Budget increases resources to support the Department of Commerce's membership in the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States (CFIUS), which reviews transactions that could result in control of a U.S. business by a foreign person to determine the effect of such transactions on the national security of the United States.

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 programs and activities to achieve its mission through seven line activities:

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 and 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).

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.

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.

Mission Support.—Mission Support provides management and administrative support for NOAA, including acquisition and grant administration, budget, accounting functions, and human resources.

Office of Marine and Aviation Operations (OMAO).— OMAO provides aircraft and marine data acquisition, fleet repair and maintenance, and operations that provide technical and management support for NOAA-wide activities.

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 2018, over $1 billion has been provided to the States of California, Oregon, Washington, Alaska, and Idaho and to the Pacific Coastal and Columbia River Tribes to conserve salmon. The Budget does not provide funding for this program, but provides continued support for the science and technical assistance programs necessary to inform salmon recovery.

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. 108–375) 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 has established a Civil Monetary Penalty/Asset Forfeiture Fund (AFF) where proceeds are deposited. 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 funded through this source include: costs directly related to the storage, maintenance, and care of seized fish, vessels, or other property during a civil or criminal proceeding; expenditures related directly to specific investigations and enforcement proceedings such as travel for interviewing witnesses; enforcement-unique information technology infrastructure; and annual interagency agreement costs for the administration, adjudication process, including Administrative Law Judges.

The complex process of transferring customs duties receipts from the Department of Agriculture (USDA) to the Department of Commerce (DOC) to partially fund fishery activities is neither transparent to the public nor consistent with general federal budgeting practices. In the place of customs receipts and to increase transparency, the Budget proposes to directly appropriate funding to DOC. These funds will be provided to DOC without further appropriation and are available for the same purposes as previous receipt-funded activities. Within DOC, an initial $158 million will be provided to the Promote and Develop program in 2020, equal to the level of funding that would otherwise have been provided by USDA, and adjusted annually in future years. The Administration will formalize these changes through a legislative proposal to be transmitted at a later date. This request is part of a broader reform proposed for USDA's Section 32 program.

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.

Fishery disaster assistance is administered by NOAA's National Marine Fisheries Service within the Department of Commerce. Two statutes, the Magnuson-Stevens Fishery Conservation and Management Act and the Interjurisdictional Fisheries Act, provide the authority for fishery disaster assistance. Under both statutes, a request for a fishery disaster determination is generally made by the Governor of a State, or an elected leader of a fishing community, although the Secretary of Commerce may also initiate a review at his or her own discretion. The Secretary determines whether the circumstances are consistent with relevant statutes and warrant a fishery disaster determination. If the Secretary determines that a fishery disaster has occurred, Congress may appropriate funds for disaster assistance, which are administered by the Secretary.

NOAA intends to revise its procedures to provide greater clarity and improved consistency with respect to the process of requesting a fishery disaster declaration. These changes will accelerate the timeline for making disaster determinations and establish guidelines for administering awards. The issues to be considered include, but are not limited to, deadlines, incentives for recipients to carry insurance, required documentation of loss, cost sharing by states, other available financial assistance, eligible uses, and prioritization of the long term sustainability of the affected fishery. The changes under consideration will accelerate the Department's responsiveness to fishery disaster requests, help get appropriated funds distributed to affected communities in a more timely manner, and contribute to the long term environmental and economic sustainability of the fishery.

In 2013 the North Pacific Observer Fund was established to support the restructured North Pacific Groundfish Observer Program (NPGOP). The 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.

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 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 fish harvesting.

The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) mission 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. NIST is authorized by the NIST Organic Act (15 USC 271), which outlines major roles for NIST in promoting national competitiveness and innovation. For more than 110 years, NIST has maintained the national standards of measurement, a role that the U.S. Constitution assigns to the federal government to ensure fairness in the marketplace. NIST was founded in 1901 and is one of the nation's oldest physical science laboratories. Today, 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. The NIST Laboratories address increasingly complex measurement challenges, ranging from the very small (quantum devices for sensing and advanced computing) to the very large (vehicles and buildings), and from the physical infrastructure to the virtual (cybersecurity and the internet of things). As new technologies develop and evolve, NIST's measurement research and services remain critical to national defense, homeland security, trade, and innovation.

The Budget proposes: (1) to create a Federal Capital Revolving Fund (FCRF) to fund large-dollar, Federally-owned, civilian real property capital projects; and (2) provide specific budget enforcement rules for the FCRF that would allow it to function, in effect, like State and local government capital budgets. The FCRF will be housed in the General Services Administration (GSA). This proposal incorporates principles that are central to the success of capital budgeting at the State and local level — a limit on total funding for capital investment, annual decisions on the allocation of funding for capital projects, and spreading the acquisition cost over 15 years in the discretionary operating budgets of agencies that purchase the assets.

The Budget proposes to use the FCRF concept to fund the renovation of NIST's Building 1 in Boulder, Colorado, estimated to be $288 million. In accordance with the principles and design of the FCRF, the Budget requests appropriations language designating NIST's renovation as a project to be funded out of the FCRF along with 1/15 of the estimated purchase price, or $19 million, for the first year repayment back to the FCRF.

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. The 2020 Budget: (1) continues to provide spectrum assignment and analysis support to Federal agencies; (2) supports NTIA's responsibilities under the Spectrum Pipeline Act of 2015 and MOBILE NOW Act (2018) to help identify additional federal spectrum to be shared or reallocated for commercial use. NTIA will continue with its efforts through BroadbandUSA to improve the nation's understanding of broadband availability by implementing its broadband availability data mapping initiative. BroadbandUSA will also continue to encourage and promote partnerships among state, municipal, non-profit, and private-sector organizations and to 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 Budget proposes to establish a new Program, Project, or Activity (PPA) for Public Safety Communications to provide the critical leadership and support for the coordination, interoperability, transition, and technical resources for our nation's public safety agencies in their adoption and implementation of advanced communications technologies.

To promote efficient use of the electromagnetic spectrum, the 2020 Budget proposes to authorize the National Telecommunications and Information Administration (NTIA) to negotiate leases with private entities that would expand their access to federal spectrum. This authority will complement ongoing efforts to make Federal spectrum available for commercial uses through auctions conducted by the Federal Communications Commission. Of the anticipated receipts from this proposal, the Budget proposes to provide up to $50 million, to remain available until expended, to NTIA to support the agency's efforts in the modernization of its spectrum IT systems, resulting in advanced automation tools; improved data accuracy and transparency; and spectrum efficiency evaluation tools. Improved analytical precision will enable NTIA and Federal agencies to, among other things, identify new spectrum sharing and leasing arrangements that are more attractive and valuable to commercial entities.

The Middle Class Tax Relief and Job Creation Act of 2012 created the First Responder Network Authority (FirstNet) to ensure the building, deployment, and operation of the nationwide public safety broadband network. FirstNet is an independent authority within the Department of Commerce's National Telecommunications and Information Administration and is overseen by a 15-member Board comprised of the Secretary of Homeland Security, the Attorney General of the United States, the Director of the Office of Management and Budget, as well as 12 members that have public safety expertise, represent the interests of states, localities, tribes, and territories and/or have technical, network or financial expertise. The First Responder Network Authority (FRNA) account reflects funds that FirstNet is authorized to collect to reinvest into the network, enhance public safety communications, and manage FirstNet operations. Incoming funds that are shown in the budget schedule represent funds that FirstNet will collect for use of spectrum licensed to FirstNet. Activities not supported through the FRNA account are either supported through the Public Safety Trust Fund or the Network Construction Fund.

The Middle Class Tax Relief and Job Creation Act of 2012 (the Act) created the First Responder Network Authority (FirstNet) within the National Telecommunications and Information Administration (NTIA) and directed that up to $7 billion of auction proceeds be used to support the establishment of a nationwide, interoperable public safety broadband network. Resources in this account have primarily funded FirstNet's and NTIA's public safety activities with some support for public safety communications research and Next Generation 911 (NG911) activities.

The amounts presented in the budget schedules for 2020 reflect funding for NTIA's implementation and a small portion of FirstNet's administrative costs. In 2020, the funding for FirstNet's activities will transition to the First Responder Network Authority with only a minimal amount remaining in the Public Safety Trust Fund and the Network Construction Fund.
