Naval Reactors.—This account funds all naval nuclear propulsion work, beginning with reactor technology development and design, continuing
through reactor operation and maintenance, and ending with final disposition of naval spent nuclear fuel. These efforts ensure
the safe and reliable operation of reactor plants in nuclear-powered submarines and aircraft carriers, enable continued technology
development for future generations of nuclear-powered warships, and supports recapitalization of laboratory facilities and
environmental remediation of legacy responsibilities. Due to the crucial nature of nuclear reactor work, Naval Reactors is
a centrally managed organization. Federal employees oversee and set policies/procedures for developing new reactor plants
and operating existing nuclear plants and the facilities that support these plants.

The Defense Nuclear Nonproliferation (DNN) and the Nuclear Counterterrorism and Incident Response (NCTIR) programs are central
to the U.S. strategy to reduce global nuclear security risks. These two programs provide policy and technical leadership to
prevent or limit the spread of materials, technology, and expertise related to weapons of mass destruction (WMD); develop
technologies that detect the proliferation of WMD worldwide; secure or eliminate inventories of nuclear weapons-related materials
and infrastructure; and ensure rapid, effective responses to nuclear or radiological incidents and accidents domestically
and overseas.
The major elements of the appropriation account include the following:
Material Management and Minimization (M3).—M3 programs reduce and, when possible, eliminate weapons-usable nuclear material around the world to achieve permanent threat
reduction. This includes minimizing the civilian use of highly enriched uranium (HEU); removing or eliminating nuclear material
internationally; and disposing of excess nuclear material in the United States.
Global Material Security (GMS).—GMS programs prevent terrorists and other actors from obtaining nuclear and radioactive materials to use in an improvised
nuclear device or a radiological dispersal device by working domestically and with partner countries to improve the security
of vulnerable materials and facilities and to build sustainable capacity to deter, detect, and investigate illicit trafficking
of these materials. GMS works with countries in bilateral partnerships, and with and through multilateral partners such as
the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) and International Criminal Police Organization (Interpol).
Nonproliferation and Arms Control (NPAC).—NPAC programs strengthen nonproliferation and arms control regimes through technology and tool development combined with
policy innovation and implementation to prevent proliferation, support peaceful nuclear uses, and enable detection, monitoring
and verification missions. NPAC builds the capacity of the IAEA and partner countries to implement international safeguards
obligations; leads domestic and international programs implementing U.S. export control obligations; supports the negotiation
and implementation of agreements and associated monitoring regimes; and develops approaches and strategies to address emerging
nonproliferation and arms control challenges and opportunities.
Defense Nuclear Nonproliferation Research and Development (DNN R&D).—DNN R&D drives the innovation of national and multi-lateral technical capabilities to detect nuclear detonations; foreign
nuclear weapons activities; and the presence, movement, or diversion of special nuclear materials. The program also sustains
and develops foundational nonproliferation technical competencies that ensure the technical agility needed to support a broad
spectrum of U.S. nonproliferation missions and to anticipate threats and build the human capacity to support these missions
into the future. DNN R&D leverages the unique facilities and scientific skills of the Department of Energy, academia, and
industry to perform research, conduct technology demonstrations, develop prototypes, and produce and deliver sensors for integration
into operational systems.
NNSA Bioassurance Program.—The NNSA Bioassurance Program establishes a national security R&D program to anticipate and detect global biological threats
and broaden DOE's role in national biodefense. The NNSA contribution complements DOE's support of other departments and U.S.
biodefense strategies and plans. The NNSA Bioassurance program will work in close coordination with the Office of Science
(DOE/SC) by integrating NNSA's high-security work with DOE/SC's supported "open" science model. The Program will provide
the full spectrum of bioassurance capabilities, informed by national security expertise that is drawn from parallel and analogue
work on nuclear threats, risks, export controls and licensing, nonproliferation, detection, and verification.
Nonproliferation Construction.—The Nonproliferation Construction Program supports the construction of projects for the dilute and dispose strategy to fulfill
the United States' commitment to dispose of 34 metric tons of surplus U.S. weapon-grade plutonium and remove plutonium from
the state of South Carolina. The request will complete the final design review and continue the activities required to achieve
CD-2/3, Approval of Performance Baseline and Start of Construction, to initiate construction on the Surplus Plutonium Disposition (SPD) project. Using available prior year balances, physical
termination activities for the Mixed Oxide Fuel Fabrication project were completed in FY 2021 and closeout activities will
be completed in FY 2022.
Nuclear Counterterrorism and Incident Response (NCTIR).—The NCTIR Program applies the unique technical expertise of NNSA's nuclear security enterprise to prepare for, prevent, respond
to, mitigate, and recover from nuclear or radiological incidents and accidents worldwide. To that end, NCTIR provides scientific
understanding of nuclear threat devices, including potential terrorist and proliferant state nuclear capabilities; informs
U.S. and international threat reduction policies and regulations; sustains Nuclear Emergency Support Team (NEST) readiness
to respond to nuclear and radiological incidents and accidents at home and overseas; provides targeted training to domestic
and international partners on nuclear and radiological emergency preparedness and response; and delivers expert analysis and
technical capabilities to support national counterproliferation efforts. NCTIR also provides both the structure and processes
to ensure a comprehensive and integrated approach to emergency management and continuity of operations, thereby safeguarding
the health and safety of workers and the public, protecting the environment, and enhancing the resilience of the Department
and the Nation.

The Defense Environmental Cleanup program is responsible for protecting human health and the environment by identifying and
reducing risks, as well as managing waste and facilities, at sites where the Department carried out defense-related nuclear
research and production activities. Those activities resulted in radioactive, hazardous, and mixed-waste contamination requiring
remediation, stabilization, decontamination and decommissioning, or some other type of cleanup action. The Budget displays
the cleanup program by site and activity.
Closure Sites.—Funds post-closure administration costs after the physical completion of cleanup, including costs for contract closeout
and litigation support.
Hanford Site.—Funds cleanup and environmental restoration to protect the Columbia River and surrounding communities. The Hanford site
cleanup is managed by two Environmental Management (EM) site offices: the Richland Operations Office and the Office of River
Protection.
The Richland Office is responsible for cleanup activities on most of the geographic area making up the Hanford site. The primary
cleanup focus is decontamination and decommissioning legacy facilities and characterizing and treating contaminated groundwater.
The Office of River Protection is responsible for the safe storage, retrieval, treatment, immobilization, and disposal of
approximately 56 million gallons of radioactive waste stored in 177 underground tanks. It is also responsible for related
operation, maintenance, engineering, and construction activities, including those connected to the Waste Treatment and Immobilization
Plant being built to solidify the liquid tank waste in a glass form that can be safely stored.
Idaho.—Funds retrieval, treatment, and disposition of nuclear and hazardous wastes and spent nuclear fuel, and legacy site cleanup
activities.
NNSA Sites.—Funds the safe and efficient cleanup of the environmental legacy of past operations at National Nuclear Security Administration
(NNSA) sites including Nevada National Security Site, Sandia National Laboratories, Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory,
Los Alamos National Laboratory and the Separations Process Research Unit. The cleanup strategy follows a risk-informed approach
that focuses first on those soil and groundwater contaminant plumes and sources that are the greatest contributors to risk.
The overall goal is first to ensure that risks to the public and workers are controlled, then to clean up soil and groundwater
using a risk-informed methodology. NNSA is responsible for long-term stewardship of its sites after physical cleanup is completed.
Los Alamos legacy cleanup is managed by the EM Los Alamos field office. Funding is included to support the deactivation and
decommissioning (D&D) of specific high-risk excess facilities by the Environmental Management program for Lawrence Livermore
and Los Alamos National Laboratories.
Oak Ridge.—Funds defense-related cleanup of the three facilities that make up the Oak Ridge site: 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 adjacent Clinch River.
Savannah River Site.—Funds the safe stabilization, treatment, and disposition of legacy nuclear materials, spent nuclear fuel, and waste at the
Savannah River site. Key activities include operating the Defense Waste Processing Facility, which is solidifying the high
activity liquid waste contained in underground storage tanks, and operation of the Salt Waste Processing Facility, which separates
various tank waste components and treats and disposes the low activity liquid waste stream.
Waste Isolation Pilot Plant.—Funds 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 disposal of transuranic waste from waste generator and storage sites across
the DOE complex. The Waste Isolation Pilot Plant is crucial to the Department of Energy (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 management and direction for various crosscutting EM and DOE initiatives such as science, technology, engineering,
and mathematics activities at Minority Serving Institutions and investments in historically underserved communities to support
program needs, intergovernmental activities, and analyses and integration activities across DOE in a consistent, responsible,
and efficient manner.
Safeguards and Security.—Funds activities to protect against unauthorized access, theft, diversion, loss of custody or destruction of DOE assets,
and hostile acts that could cause adverse impacts to fundamental national security or the health and safety of DOE and contractor
employees, the public or the environment.
Technology Development and Deployment.—Funds projects managed through Headquarters 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' cleanup decisions. These projects focus on maturing and deploying the technologies necessary
to accelerate tank waste processing, treatment, and waste loading.

The Office of Science (SC) is the nation's largest Federal supporter of basic research in the physical sciences. The SC portfolio
has two principal thrusts: direct support of scientific research and direct support of the design, development, construction,
and operation of unique, open-access scientific user facilities. SC initiates three new research initiatives to include Energy
Earthshots; Funding for Accelerated, Inclusive Research (FAIR); and Accelerate Innovations in Emerging Technologies (Accelerate).
The Energy Earthshots initiative will support both small group awards and larger center awards through the Energy Earthshot
Research Centers. These centers will bring together multi-investigator, multi-disciplinary teams to address key research challenges
at the interface between basic research and applied research and development activities. The FAIR initiative, will target
efforts to increase participation and retention of individuals from underrepresented groups in SC research activities. The
Accelerate initiative will support scientific research to accelerate the transition of science advances to energy technologies.
The request also supports ongoing investments in priority areas including clean energy , microelectronics, critical materials,
quantum information science (QIS), artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML), and exascale computing.
Advanced Scientific Computing Research.—The Advanced Scientific Computing Research (ASCR) program supports research in applied mathematics and computer science;
delivers the most advanced computational scientific applications in partnership with disciplinary science; advances computing
and networking capabilities; and develops future generations of computing hardware and tools for science, in partnership with
the research community and U.S. industry. The strategy to accomplish this has three thrusts: 1) developing, deploying, and
maintaining world-class computing and network facilities for science; 2) advancing research in applied mathematics, computer
science and advanced networking; and 3) partnering with other DOE and SC programs to advance the use of its high performance
computers to drive scientific advances for the Nation in areas such as clean energy and earth systems modeling. The program
supports the development, maintenance, and operation of large high-performance computing and network facilities, including
the Leadership Computing Facilities at Oak Ridge and Argonne National Laboratories, the National Energy Research Scientific
Computing Facility at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, and the Energy Sciences Network.
SC and the National Nuclear Security Administration (NNSA) continue to partner on the Department's Exascale Computing Initiative
(ECI) to overcome key exascale challenges in parallelism, energy efficiency, and reliability, with deployment of the Nation's
first exascale system in calendar year 2021 and additional exascale systems in calendar years 2022 and 2023. The ECI focuses
on delivering advanced simulation through an exascale-capable computing program, emphasizing sustained performance in science
and national security mission applications and increased convergence between exascale, AI, and large-data analytic computing.
Basic Energy Sciences.—The Basic Energy Sciences (BES) program supports fundamental research to understand, predict, and ultimately control matter
and energy at the electronic, atomic, and molecular levels to provide the foundations for new energy technologies and to support
the Department of Energy (DOE) missions in energy, environment, and national security. The research disciplines that BES
supports—condensed matter and materials physics, chemistry, geosciences, and aspects of biosciences are those that discover
new materials and design new chemical processes that touch virtually every important aspect of energy resources, production,
conversion, transmission, storage, efficiency, and waste mitigation.
BES also manages a research portfolio in accelerator physics, x-ray and neutron detectors, and x-ray-optics to explore technology
options for developing the next generations of x-ray and neutron sources. On behalf of DOE, BES manages the DOE Established
Program to Stimulate Competitive Research (EPSCoR), which supports early-stage energy research in U.S. states and territories
that are historically under-represented in federally-supported research.
BES supports twelve scientific user facilities consisting of a complementary set of intense x-ray sources, neutron sources,
and research centers for nanoscale science. BES facilities probe materials and chemical systems with ultrahigh spatial, temporal,
and energy resolutions to investigate the critical functions of matter and tackle some of the most challenging science questions
and urgent national priorities such as the fight against COVID-19. These facilities undergo continual development and upgrade
of capabilities, including fabricating new X-ray and neutron experimental stations, improving core facilities, and providing
new stand-alone instruments and capabilities. BES also manages construction projects to build new or upgrade existing facilities
to provide world-leading tools and instruments to the scientific community and maintain U.S. leadership in the physical sciences.
Biological and Environmental Research.—The Biological and Environmental Research (BER) program supports fundamental research to understand complex biological,
biogeochemical, and physical principles of natural systems at scales extending from the genome of microbes and plants to the
environmental and ecological processes at the scale of the planet Earth. BER's support of basic research will contribute to
a future of stable, reliable, and resilient energy sources and infrastructures, that will lead to climate solutions, strengthen
economic prosperity and assure environmental justice. BER research in biological systems science uses approaches such as
genome sequencing, secure biodesign, proteomics, metabolomics, structural biology, and high-resolution imaging and characterization.
Integration of this experimental biological information into computational models for iterative testing and validation advances
a predictive understanding of biological systems for use in secure, clean, affordable, and reliable energy for adaptation
to industry. New efforts in clean energy bio-based materials and foundational bioenergy research underpin new biotechnology
and the bioeconomy.
BER research in Earth and environmental systems science is focused on scientific analysis and modeling of the sensitivity
and uncertainty of Earth system predictions to atmospheric, cryospheric, oceanic, and biogeochemical processes, with continued
support of the Energy Exascale Earth System Model. New Urban Integrated Field Laboratories combine modeling and observations
of emerging energy technologies in urban regions, enabling the evaluation of the societal and environmental impacts of current
and future energy policies. Augmented planning and implementation continues for a Climate Resilience Center effort, facilitating
translations of BER investments in foundational climate research into actionable solutions for impacted communities and addressing
the Administration priorities involving climate solutions and environmental justice. Operations and equipment refresh continue
at the three BER scientific user facilities: the Joint Genome Institute, the Atmospheric Radiation Measurement Research Facility,
and the Environmental Molecular Sciences Laboratory.
Fusion Energy Sciences.—The Fusion Energy Sciences (FES) program mission is to expand the fundamental understanding of matter at very high temperatures
and densities and to build the scientific foundation needed to develop a fusion energy source. This is accomplished through
the study of plasma, the fourth state of matter, and how it interacts with its surroundings. High-temperature fusion plasmas
at hundreds of millions of degrees are being exploited in the laboratory to become the basis for a future clean energy source.
Once developed, fusion energy will provide a clean energy source that is well-suited for on- demand, dispatchable electricity
production, supplementing intermittent renewables and fission.
The FES program has four elements: 1) Burning Plasma Science: Foundations—The behavior of magnetically confined fusion plasmas
is experimentally explored on the DIII-D National Fusion Facility and the National Spherical Torus Experiment-Upgrade (currently
under repair), which are national scientific user facilities. Fusion theory and simulation activities predict and interpret
the complex behavior of magnetically-confined plasmas. This element also supports partnerships with the private sector through
the Innovation Network for Fusion Energy (INFUSE) program and a new milestone-based cost-share fusion enterprise program.
In addition, FES will initiate an inertial fusion energy science and technology program; 2) Burning Plasma Science: Long Pulse—U.S.
scientists take advantage of international partnerships to conduct research on overseas tokamaks and stellarators with unique
capabilities. The element also supports research to develop the nuclear science and novel materials that can harness the power
from a burning plasma and withstand the extreme fusion environment; 3) Burning Plasma Science: High Power—This element supports
the U.S. Contributions to the International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor (ITER) Project, the world's first burning plasma
experiment, and the initiation of an ITER Research program; and 4) Discovery Plasma Science—This element supports research
in Plasma Science & Technology, including plasma astrophysics, high-energy-density laboratory plasmas (HEDLP), and low-temperature
plasmas. Besides ITER, FES also manages construction projects to build new or upgrade existing facilities to provide world-leading
tools and instruments to the scientific community and maintain U.S. leadership in several areas. These include the Materials
Plasma Exposure eXperiment (MPEX) for fusion materials science and the Matter in Extreme Conditions (MEC) Petawatt Upgrade
at SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory for HEDLP science.
High Energy Physics.—The High Energy Physics (HEP) program supports fundamental research to understand how the universe works by discovering
the elementary constituents of matter and energy, probing the interactions among them, and exploring the basic nature of space
and time. A world-wide program of particle physics research is underway to discover what lies beyond the Standard Model of
particle physics. Five intertwined science drivers of particle physics provide compelling lines of inquiry that show great
promise for discovery: 1) use the Higgs boson as a new tool for discovery; 2) pursue the physics associated with neutrino
mass; 3) identify the new physics of dark matter; 4) understand cosmic acceleration, dark energy, and inflation; and 5) explore
new particles, interactions and physical principles. The program enables scientific discovery through a strategy organized
along three frontiers: 1) The Energy Frontier, where researchers accelerate particles to the highest energies and collide
them to produce and study the fundamental constituents of matter; 2) The Intensity Frontier, where researchers use a combination
of intense particle beams and highly sensitive detectors to make extremely precise measurements of particle properties, to
study some of the rarest particle interactions predicted by the Standard Model, and to search for new physics; and 3) The
Cosmic Frontier, where researchers seek to reveal the nature of dark matter and dark energy by using naturally occurring particles
to explore new phenomena. The highest-energy particles ever observed have come from cosmic sources, and the ancient light
from distant galaxies allows scientists to map the distribution of dark matter and perhaps unravel the nature of dark energy.
Investments in Theoretical, Computational, and Interdisciplinary Physics provide the framework to explain experimental observations.
Advanced Technology Research and Development (R&D) fosters fundamental and innovative research into particle acceleration
and detection techniques and instrumentation, supporting the frontiers and enabling future discovery experiments. HEP supports
two particle accelerator scientific user facilities. HEP also manages construction projects to build new or upgrade existing
facilities, providing world-leading tools and instruments to the particle physics scientific community.
Nuclear Physics.—The mission of the Nuclear Physics (NP) program is to solve an enduring mystery of the universe-what are the basic constituents
of matter and how do they interact to form the elements and the properties we observe? To solve this mystery, NP supports
research to discover, explore, and understand all forms of nuclear matter ,including exotic forms that existed in the first
moments after the Big Bang. The goal is new knowledge that can benefit commerce, medicine, and national security. Achieving
the goal requires support for advanced tools and the scientists and engineers who use them. NP provides ~95% of the support
for basic nuclear physics research in the United States. Experimental approaches use large accelerators at national scientific
user facilities to collide particles at nearly the speed of light, producing short-lived forms of nuclear matter for investigation.
NP currently operates three national user facilities: the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider, the Continuous Electron Beam Accelerator
Facility, and the Argonne Tandem Linac Accelerator Facility. Also three powerful "microscopes" with complementary "resolving
powers", which also produce advanced accelerator technology. Other research attempts to understand the theory of the strong
nuclear force via Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD). An exciting vision to which NP researchers are making seminal contributions
is quantum computing — future computers capable of solving QCD problems intractable with today's capabilities. To maintain
U.S. leadership, the Facility for Rare Isotope Beams (FRIB) will begin operations in FY 2022 and will uniquely afford access
to 80% of all isotopes predicted to possibly exist in nature, including over 1,000 never produced on earth. The Electron-Ion
Collider (EIC) project is under development; when the EIC is completed in the next decade, it will provide unprecedented capability
to discover how the mass of everyday objects is dynamically generated by the interaction of quarks and gluons. A targeted
program of fundamental symmetries experiments is ongoing, including transformative research to determine whether the elusive
neutrino particle is its own anti-particle. The National Nuclear Data Center is supported to collect, evaluate, curate, and
disseminate nuclear physics data for basic nuclear physics research and applied nuclear technologies.
Isotope R&D and Production.—The DOE Isotope Program (DOE IP) produces critical radioactive and stable isotopes in short supply for the Nation that no
domestic entity has the infrastructure or core competency to produce. Isotopes are high-priority commodities of strategic
importance for the Nation and are essential in medical diagnosis and treatment, discovery science, national security and preparedness,
industrial processes and manufacturing, space exploration and communications, biology, archeology, quantum science, clean
energy, environmental science, and other fields. The DOE IP supports high-priority research on innovative and transformative
approaches to isotopes production and processing, such as advanced manufacturing, artificial intelligence and machine learning,
and robotics. The DOE IP promotes the development of robust, domestic supply chains of strategic isotopes and ensures national
preparedness of critical infrastructure to mitigate risks in supply. The program provides mission readiness for the production
and processing of radioactive and stable isotopes that are vital to the missions of many Federal agencies including the National
Institutes of Health, National Institute of Standards and Technology, Department of Agriculture, Department of Defense, Department
of Homeland Security, NNSA, and DOE SC programs. DOE IP continues to work in close collaboration with all federal organizations
to develop strategic plans for isotope production and to establish effective communication to better forecast isotope needs
and leverage resources. Construction continues for the Stable Isotope Production and Research Center to expand the stable
isotope production capability to meet the demands of the Nation and mitigate dependency on stable isotope supply chains from
foreign countries. Investments in QIS and Climate/Clean Energy support technology development for isotopes of interest. The
DOE Isotope Traineeship advances workforce development in the field of isotope production and processing, promoting a safe,
diverse, equitable and inclusive environment.
Accelerator R&D and Production.—Accelerator R&D and Production (ARDAP) supports cross-cutting basic R&D in accelerator science and technology, access to
unique SC accelerator R&D infrastructure, workforce development, and public-private partnerships to advance new technologies
for use in SC's scientific facilities and in commercial products. ARDAP supports fundamental research, user facility operations,
and production of accelerator technologies in industry, with the aim of ensuring SC and broader U.S. Government have the best
scientific instruments available. Reducing supply chain risks by re-shoring critical accelerator technologies is a key part
of ARDAP's mission. ARDAP supports early-stage translational research to move advanced accelerator technology out of scientific
laboratories and into broader applications in industry, environmental cleanup, medicine, and national security.
Workforce Development for Teachers and Scientists.—The Workforce Development for Teachers and Scientists (WDTS) program mission is to help ensure that DOE has a sustained
pipeline of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics workers. This is accomplished through support of undergraduate
internships, and graduate thesis research and collaborative faculty research opportunities at the DOE laboratories; and annual,
nationwide, middle and high-school science competitions culminating in the National Science Bowl in Washington, D.C. These
investments help develop the next generation of scientists and engineers.
Science Laboratories Infrastructure.—The Science Laboratories Infrastructure (SLI) program supports scientific and technological innovation at the SC laboratories
by funding and sustaining mission-ready infrastructure and fostering safe and environmentally responsible operations. The
program provides state-of-the-art facilities and infrastructure that are flexible, reliable, and sustainable in support of
scientific discovery. The SLI program also funds Payments in Lieu of Taxes to local communities around the Argonne, Brookhaven,
and Oak Ridge National Laboratories. The SLI program continues to focus on improving infrastructure across the SC national
laboratory complex. The FY 2023 request includes funding for eleven on-going SLI construction projects: 1) Princeton Plasma
Innovation Center at PPPL; 2) Critical Infrastructure Recovery & Renewal at PPPL; 3) Critical Utilities Rehabilitation Project
at BNL; 4) Seismic and Safety Modernization at LBNL; 5) CEBAF Renovation and Expansion at TJNAF; 6) Large Scale Collaboration
Center at SLAC; 7) Argonne Utilities Upgrade at ANL; 8) Linear Assets Modernization Project at LBNL; 9) Critical Utilities
Infrastructure Revitalization at SLAC; 10) Utilities Infrastructure Project at FNAL; and 11) Biological and Environmental
Program Integration Center at LBNL.
Safeguards and Security.—The Safeguards and Security (S&S) program is designed to ensure appropriate security measures are in place to support the
SC mission requirement of open scientific research and to protect critical assets within SC laboratories. This is accomplished
by providing physical controls that will mitigate possible risks to the laboratories' employees, nuclear and special materials,
classified and sensitive information, and facilities. The S&S program also provides funding for cyber security for the laboratories'
information technology systems to protect electronic data while enabling the SC mission.
Program Direction.—Science Program Direction supports a highly skilled Federal workforce to develop and oversee SC investments in research
and scientific user facilities. SC provides public access to DOE scientific findings to further leverage the Federal science
investment and advance the scientific enterprise. SC requires highly skilled scientific and technical program and project
managers, as well as experts in areas such as acquisition, finance, legal, construction, and infrastructure management, human
resources, and environmental, safety, and health oversight. Oversight of DOE's basic research portfolio, which includes extramural
grants and contracts supporting nearly 29,000 researchers located at over 300 institutions and the 17 DOE national laboratories,
spanning all fifty states and the District of Columbia and 28 scientific user facilities serving nearly 34,000 users per year,
as well as supervision of major construction projects, is a Federal responsibility.

The U.S. Department of Energy's Advanced Research Projects Agency-Energy (ARPA-E) was established by the America COMPETES
Act of 2007 (Public Law 110–69), as amended. The mission of ARPA-E is to enhance the economic, climate, and energy security
of the United States through the development of advanced technologies that reduce imports of energy from foreign sources;
reduce energy-related emissions, including greenhouse gases; improve the energy efficiency of all economic sectors; provide
transformative solutions to improve the management, clean-up, and disposal of radioactive waste and spent nuclear fuel; improve
the resilience, reliability, and security of infrastructure to produce, deliver, and store energy; mitigate the causes of,
reverse the impact of, adapt to, or increase resilience against climate change; and monitor, analyze, and utilize climate
emissions data. ARPA-E is expanding its scope to invest in climate-related innovations necessary to achieve net zero climate-inducing
emissions by 2050 and address adaptation and resilience due to a changing climate. ARPA-E will ensure that the United States
maintains a technological lead in developing and deploying advanced energy technologies. ARPA-E will identify and promote
revolutionary advances in energy and climate-related applied sciences, translating scientific discoveries and cutting-edge
inventions into technological innovations. It will also accelerate transformational technological advances in areas where
industry by itself is not likely to invest due to technical and financial uncertainty. The role of ARPA-E is not to duplicate
DOE's basic research and applied programs but to focus on novel early-stage energy research and development with technology
applications that can be meaningfully advanced with a small investment over a defined period of time.

The Office of Nuclear Energy (NE) funds a broad range of research and development (R&D) activities and supports Federal nuclear
energy R&D infrastructure. The FY 2023 Budget continues programmatic support for advanced reactor R&D activities; fuel cycle
R&D; and the safe, environmentally compliant, and cost-effective operation of the Department's facilities vital to nuclear
energy R&D activities.
Directed R&D and University Programs.—This program focuses nuclear energy related research and development activities conducted by small businesses and supports
university level engineering and science through competitively awarded university led research and development and infrastructure,
universities research reactor fuel services, and scholarships and fellowships.
Reactor Concepts Research, Development and Demonstration.—This program conducts R&D on advanced reactor designs and advanced technologies for light water reactors (LWR).
Fuel Cycle Research and Development.—This program conducts R&D on advanced fuel cycle technologies that have the potential to improve resource utilization and
energy generation, reduce waste generation, enhance safety, and mitigate risk of proliferation.
Nuclear Energy Enabling Technologies.—This program conducts R&D and strategic infrastructure investments to develop innovative and crosscutting nuclear energy
technologies, including investments in modeling and simulation tools and providing access to unique nuclear energy research
capabilities through the Nuclear Science User Facilities (NSUF).
Advanced Reactors Demonstration Program.—This program focuses Departmental and non-Federal resources on the development of commercial reactor technologies that may
be ready for demonstration and deployment in the mid-term.
Versatile Test Reactor Project.—This program will provide the United States with a fast neutron testing capability to support the development of advanced
nuclear reactor technologies. The Versatile Test Reactor (VTR) project will provide a leading edge capability for accelerated
testing of advanced nuclear fuels, materials, instrumentation, and sensors.
Infrastructure.—This program manages Department of Energy mission critical facilities at the Idaho National Laboratory (INL), creating a
safe and compliant status to support the Department's nuclear energy research and development activities, and testing of naval
reactor fuels and reactor core components.
Idaho Sitewide Safeguards and Security.—This program supports the INL complex nuclear facility infrastructure and enables R&D in support of multiple program missions.
International Nuclear Energy Cooperation.—This program leads the Department's international engagement for civil nuclear energy, including analysis, development,
and coordination activities.
Program Direction.—This program provides the Federal staffing resources and associated costs required to support the overall direction and
execution of NE programs.
In FY 2023, NE will continue to support the Civil Nuclear Credit Program, a $6 billion strategic investment ($1.2 billion
for each of five years) through the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law (BIL), to help preserve the existing U.S. reactor fleet
and save thousands of high-paying jobs across the country. Under the new program, owners or operators of commercial U.S. reactors
can apply for certification to bid on credits to support their continued operations. An application must demonstrate the reactor
is projected to close for economic reasons and that closure will lead to a rise in air pollutants and carbon emissions. The
program is available for plants that are certified as safe to continue operations and prioritizes plants that use domestically
produced fuel.

The mission of the Office of Electricity (OE) is to drive electric grid modernization and resilience in energy infrastructure.
OE leads the Department of Energy's efforts to strengthen, transform, and improve electricity delivery infrastructure so that
consumers have access to resilient, secure, and clean sources of energy. OE programs include:
Transmission Reliability and Resilience (TRR).—The TRR program is focused on ensuring the reliability and resilience of the U.S. electric grid through R&D measurement
and control of the electricity system, assessing evolving systems needs, identifying pathways to achieve an equitable transition
to decarbonization and electrification, and risk assessment to address challenges across integrated energy systems.
Energy Delivery Grid Operations Technology (EDGOT).—EDGOT supports a public private partnership to develop national-scale energy planning and real-time situation awareness
capabilities by focusing on developing large, networked communication and data infrastructure across multiple utility boundaries.
EDGOT's North America Energy Resilience Model (NAERM) will help transition the current reactive state-of-practice to a new
energy planning, investment, and operation paradigm in which we proactively develop infrastructure investment strategies.
Resilient Distribution Systems (RDS).—The RDS program develops transformative technologies, tools, and techniques to modernize the distribution portion of the
electric delivery system. RDS activities will help harness emerging sources of energy for balance, reliability, and control:
EVs, connected homes and buildings, increasing distributed solar, and energy storage.
Cyber Resilient and Secure Utility Communications Networks (SecureNet).—SecureNet, called Cyber R&D in the FY 2022 request to Congress, addresses energy sector cybersecurity associated with electricity
delivery systems. SecureNet will focus on data and physics to redesign grid architecture that exposes the electricity system
to cyber threats and will pursue coordinated engagement with DOE's other cyber-related activities.
Energy Storage.—The Energy Storage program, which is included in the Department's Grand Challenge, helps ensure the stability, reliability,
and resilience of electricity infrastructure. The request supports emerging technology efforts focused on ultra-low-cost
chemistries; a new GSL fellowship program; and continued development of the Rapid Operational Validation Initiative.
Transformer Resilience and Advanced Components (TRAC).—The TRAC program develops innovations for grid hardware that carries, controls, and converts electricity, helping to achieve
decarbonization goals, ensure reliability and resilience of electric infrastructure, adapt the electricity delivery system
to the evolution of the electric power grid, and provide the foundation to invigorate domestic transformer manufacturing.
The request supports field validation of innovative, flexible, and adaptable prototypes for large power transformers (LPTs),
which will promote greater standardization to increase grid resilience. TRAC will also address critical research needs for
solid-state power substations (SSPS) with an emphasis on advanced materials, embedded intelligence for equipment monitoring,
and validation of prototype converter building blocks.
Advanced Grid Transformation Solutions (AGTS).—AGTS is a new program in FY 2023 to address the pressing need for rapidly validating and deploying new systems by integrating
technology suites in pilot environments to drive new technology adoption. AGTS will support integrated pilots to show how
new technologies can help achieve stakeholder objectives. For each applied demonstration area, AGTS will consult stakeholders
ensure that the project scope and outputs will be immediately useful to targeted decisionmakers.
Defense Critical Energy Infrastructure (DCEI) Energy Mission Assurance.—The DCEI Energy Mission Assurance program was funded in FY 2021 to identify, evaluate, prioritize, and assist in developing
executable strategies to ensure that critical national defense and security missions have reliable access to power. In FY
2022, DOE proposed to integrate the functions of the DCEI Energy Mission Assurance program into the Office of Cybersecurity,
Energy Security, and Emergency Response's suite of activities.
Transmission Permitting & Technical Assistance (TPTA).—The TPTA program worked with electricity system partners and stakeholders to modernize the grid and ensure adequate transmission
capacity across the United States. TPTA activities are transferred to the Grid Deployment Office in FY 2023.
Program Direction.—Program Direction provides for the costs associated with the Federal workforce and contractor services that support OE's
mission. These costs include salaries, benefits, travel, training, building occupancy, IT systems, and other related expenses.
The Bipartisan Infrastructure Law (BIL) (Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act, P.L. 117–58) provides additional resources
for OE to advance work in: 1) electric grid resilience, 2) technology deployment for enhancing grid flexibility, and 3) modeling
energy infrastructure risk. Budgetary projections, including program direction and FTE counts, in the OE account reflect execution
of BIL programs appropriated to OE but will be executed through OE, the Office of Cybersecurity, Energy Security, and Emergency
Response, and the newly established Grid Deployment Office.

The Office of Cybersecurity, Energy Security, and Emergency Response (CESER) leads the Department's efforts to secure U.S.
energy infrastructure against all hazards, reduce the risks of and impacts from cyber events and other disruptive events,
and assists with restoration activities. Programs include:
Risk Management Tools (RMT).—The RMT program seeks to enhance the reliability and resilience of the Nation's energy infrastructure through near- and
long-term activities to strengthen energy sector cybersecurity across the Nation. Working closely with the energy sector and
our government partners, RMT focuses on enhancing the speed and effectiveness of threat and vulnerability sharing and accelerating
technology and tools to mitigate cyber incidents in today's systems and to develop next-generation resilient energy delivery
systems while developing analyses to quantify the resulting relative risk reduction.
Response and Restoration (R&R).—The R&R program coordinates a national effort to secure the U.S. energy infrastructure against all hazards, reduce impacts
from disruptive events, and assist industry with restoration activities. R&R delivers a range of capabilities including energy
sector emergency response and recovery (including emergency response of a cyber nature); near-real-time situational awareness
and information sharing about the status of the energy systems to improve risk management; analysis of evolving threats and
hazards to energy infrastructure.
Information Sharing, Partnerships and Exercises (ISPE).—The ISPE program supports energy sector security and resilience in coordination with government and industry partners.
By seeding public-private partnerships this program will advance the Department's efforts to support State, Local, Tribal,
territory and industry in preparing for, mitigating, and recovering from all threats and hazards facing the U.S. energy sector
through information sharing, risk assessments, capacity building in planning and resilience, and targeted training and exercises.
Program Direction.—Program Direction provides for the costs associated with the Federal workforce and contractor services that support CESER's
mission. These costs include salaries, benefits, travel, training, building occupancy, IT systems, and other related expenses.
The Bipartisan Infrastructure Law (BIL) (Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act, P.L. 117–58) provides additional resources
for CESER to advance work in: 1) a rural and municipal utility advanced cybersecurity grant and technical assistance program,
and 2) enhancing grid security.

The Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy (EERE) accelerates the research, development, demonstration, and deployment
(RDD&D) of technologies and solutions to equitably transition America to net-zero greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions economy-wide
no later than 2050, creating good paying jobs, and ensuring the clean energy economy benefits all Americans.
To achieve this mission, EERE invests in clean energy technologies that are ready to be demonstrated and deployed, as well
as research and development (R&D) activities that advance early stage technologies with a clear path to deployment. EERE's
investments focus on five strategic priority areas: decarbonizing the electricity sector, decarbonizing transportation across
all modes, decarbonizing energy-intensive industries, reducing the carbon footprint of buildings, and enabling net-zero agricultural
production of biofuels.
EERE works in a unified and coordinated way with its state and local partners to accelerate a just, equitable transition to
a clean energy economy and ensure that the office's investments benefit everyone, especially those in underserved or pollution
over-burdened communities and workers and communities impacted by the energy transition. The office is organized into four
pillars, with three technical pillars designed to advance cross-technology solutions, and a Corporate Program pillar that
serves as the central organization for all EERE products, services, processes, and systems.
Sustainable Transportation Pillar.—Supports RDD&D efforts to decarbonize transportation across all modes to enable the following: vehicle electrification;
commercially viable hydrogen fuel cell trucks; sustainable aviation fuel from biomass; and waste carbon resources and low-GHG
options for off-road vehicles, rail, and maritime transport. Many newly-proposed investments in this pillar are directly
focused on deployment or demonstration of technology to show viable commercial paths, including a number of programmatic performance
milestones by 2030 related to decarbonizing transportation across all modes. The Budget also supports hydrogen use for industrial
decarbonization and energy storage, including sustainable biomass to achieve reduced GHG from the agricultural sector.
Renewable Power Pillar.—Supports RDD&D efforts to reduce the costs and accelerate the integration and utilization of renewable energy technologies
as part of a reliable, secure, resilient, and fully decarbonized electric system by 2035 and a net zero economy by 2050. This
request drives critical cost reductions and technical improvements in wind, solar, geothermal, and water power technologies
to increase the penetration of cost-competitive, non-emitting energy generation resources across the country. Renewable Power
also provides new research and technologies to facilitate the siting and integration of the high levels of renewable power
generation needed to fully decarbonize the power system, and supports the development of diversified, resilient supply chains
for all renewable energy technologies to help ensure the long-lasting security of the U.S. energy supply, which will alson
provide thousands of good-paying jobs for American workers. The Budget also includes funding for a new Solar Manufacturing
Accelerator, an initiative that partners the Advanced Manufacturing Office in the Energy Efficiency pillar with the Solar
Energy Technology Office intended to diversify and strengthen the supply chain for solar energy technologies, as well as enhance
the domestic capability to produce technologically advanced solar energy components that avoid supply chains that may be reliant
in part on unethically sourced materials or vulnerable foreign supply chains.
Energy Efficiency Pillar.— Supports RDD&D to decarbonize America's homes, buildings, and industrial facilities while also strengthening U.S. manufacturing
competitiveness and producing thousands of good-paying jobs. The request includes increased support for demonstration and
deployment, as well as high impact R&D of technologies to increase energy efficiency, improve demand flexibility, and reduce
on-site emissions from our nation's 125 million homes and commercial buildings to reduce total emissions by 50 percent by
2030 and net-zero by 2050. It also increases investment in RDD&D across the multiple decarbonization technologies and approaches
necessary to achieve net-zero emissions by 2050, including industry-specific decarbonization investments focused on the chemicals,
iron and steel, cement, and food products industries. In addition, the request includes significant funding increases for
public investment in federal, state, and community programs to accelerate investments in decarbonizing all sectors of the
U.S. economy, and initiates funding for the Solar Manufacturing Accelerator initiative in partnership with the Solar Energy
Technologies Office in the Renewable Power pillar.
Corporate Programs Pillar.—Supports activities to make EERE more efficient and effective. This pillar identifies ways to strengthen EERE's overall performance,
organization, budget, laboratory management, operations, human capital, and project management while achieving significant
cost savings. This includes support for program direction (e.g., salaries and benefits, support services, working capital
fund, etc.) and facilities and infrastructure as part of EERE's stewardship of the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (e.g.,
general plant projects, general purpose equipment, safeguards and security, and capacity building for Administration priorities).
Budgetary projections, including program direction and FTE counts, in the EERE account reflect execution of Bipartisan Infrastructure
Legislation (BIL) programs appropriated to EERE and executed through EERE and three newly established programs: State and
Community Energy Programs; Manufacturing and Energy Supply Chains; and Federal Energy Management Program.
In FY 2023, through the EERE appropriation, $2.2 Billion of BIL funding is provided to support the following activities: Electric
Drive Vehicle Battery Recycling and Second-Life Applications Program; Clean Hydrogen Electrolysis Program; Clean Hydrogen
Manufacturing Recycling Research, Development, and Demonstration Program; Maintaining and Enhancing Hydroelectricity Incentives
- Section 247 of the Energy Policy Act of 2005; Implementation Grants for Industrial Research and Assessment Centers; Industrial
Research and Assessment Centers; Grants for Energy Efficiency Improvement and Renewable Energy Improvements at Public School
Facilities; Grants for Updating Building Energy Codes; Advanced Energy Manufacturing and Recycling GrantProgram; Battery Manufacturing
and Recycling Grants; and Battery Material Processing Grants.

The FY 2023 request includes funding for the Office of Clean Energy Demonstrations (OCED), which was authorized and established
through the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law (BIL). OCED's mission is to deliver clean energy technology demonstration projects
at scale in partnership with the private sector to accelerate deployment, market adoption, and the equitable transition to
a decarbonized energy system by 2035.
OCED is a technology-neutral office with expertise in large-scale energy project management and finance that leverages the
existing technical expertise throughout the Department of Energy (DOE). OCED investments are part of a clear progression and
transition between the research, development, and demonstration projects within the DOE technology offices and initial deployments
supported by the private sector or DOE Loan Programs Offices, ensuring continuity of DOE support for clean energy technologies
and systems. Funding decisions are made to support scalable outcomes leading to commercialization and deployment for greenhouse
gas reductions, job creation, and achieving environmental justice and Justice40 Initiative priorities.
In FY 2023, OCED will support new demonstrations related to the integration of renewable and distributed energy systems. The
goal of this new investment area is to support demonstration programs to address integration issues of renewable energy onto
the transmission and distribution grids. Additionally, OCED will provide additional support for the Advanced Reactor Demonstration
Program, as part of DOE's consolidation of support for these demonstration projects into OCED from the Office of Nuclear Energy
(NE). This investment will complement the $2.48 billion provided in BIL to continue these important projects.
In addition to the activities supported through OCED's annual appropriations, the organization will continue to support clean
energy demonstrations through its execution of funding provided to OCED in BIL.

The Non-Defense Environmental Cleanup program includes funds to manage and clean up sites used for civilian energy research
and non-defense-related activities. These activities resulted in radioactive, hazardous, and mixed waste contamination that
requires remediation, stabilization, or some other type of corrective action, as well as the decontamination and decommissioning
of former research and production buildings and supporting infrastructure. The budget displays the cleanup program by site
and activity.
West Valley Demonstration Project.—Funds waste disposition, building decontamination, and removal of non-essential facilities in the near-term.
Gaseous Diffusion Plants.—Funds surveillance and maintenance of the former Uranium Program facilities and manages legacy polychlorinated biphenyl
contamination. The program also includes the operation of two depleted uranium hexafluoride conversion facilities at Paducah,
Kentucky, and Portsmouth, Ohio, which are converting the depleted uranium hexafluoride into a more stable form for reuse or
disposition.
Fast Flux Test Facility.—Funds the long-term surveillance and maintenance and eventual decontamination and decommissioning of the Fast Flux Test
Facility, constructed and 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
the Energy Technology Engineering Center and Moab, as well as non-defense activities at Idaho. 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 will transition to the Office of Legacy Management or private-sector entities for post-closure activities.

The Fossil Energy and Carbon Management (FECM) office conducts research, development, demonstration and deployment (RDD&D)
that focuses on technologies to reduce carbon emissions and other environmental impacts of fossil fuel production and use,
particularly the hardest-to-decarbonize applications in the electricity and industrial sectors. Additionally, the program
advances technologies on carbon dioxide (CO2) removal (CDR) to reduce atmospheric and legacy emissions of CO2, and technologies
that convert and durably store CO2 into value-added products. FECM recognizes that decarbonization is essential to meeting
climate goals—100% carbon pollution free electricity by 2035 and net-zero greenhouse gas emissions economy-wide by 2050. FECM
is also committed to improving the conditions of communities impacted by the legacy of fossil fuel use and to supporting a
healthy economic transition that accelerates the growth of good-paying jobs.

This account funds environmental activities at Naval Petroleum Reserve 1 (NPR-1) in California (Elk Hills) and Naval Petroleum
Reserve 3 (NPR-3) in Wyoming (Teapot Dome). Following the sale of the Government's interests in NPR-1 in California (Elk
Hills), post-sale environmental assessment/remediation activities continue to be required by the legally binding agreements
under the Corrective Action Consent Agreement with the State of California Department of Toxic Substances Control (DTSC).
Program activities encompass execution of a technical baseline, interim measures, environmental sampling and analysis, corrective
measures, waste removal and disposal, and confirmatory sampling. In FY 2023, funding will continue ongoing activities to attain
release from the remaining environmental findings related to the sale of NPR-1. On January 30, 2015, the Department finalized
the sale of the Teapot Dome Oilfield. The Department continues to oversee post-sale remediation activities and ground water
sampling for the closure of the landfill in compliance with National Environmental Policy Act and Wyoming Department of Environmental
Quality requirements.

The Strategic Petroleum Reserve (SPR) provides strategic and economic security against foreign and domestic disruptions in
oil supplies via an emergency stockpile of crude oil. The program fulfills United States obligations under the International
Energy Program, which commits the United States to support the International Energy Agency through its coordinated energy
emergency response plans and provides a deterrent against energy supply disruptions. The FY 2023 Budget will support the SPR's
operational readiness and drawdown capabilities of 4.4 MB/d. The program will perform cavern wellbore testing and maintenance
activities to ensure the availability of the SPR's crude oil inventory. The FY 2023 Budget will continue to fund the Northeast
Gasoline Supply Reserve which currently holds one million barrels of refined product in reserve.

The Energy Security and Infrastructure Modernization Fund was established in Section 404 of the Bipartisan Budget Act of 2015
to finance modernization of the Strategic Petroleum Reserve (SPR). Revenue raised through sales of SPR crude oil will support
Life Extension Phase 2 project investments needed to ensure the SPR can maintain its operational readiness capability, meet
its mission requirements, and operate in an environmentally responsible manner. The CARES Act extended the Department's authority
to sell oil in support of modernization from FY 2020 to FY 2022, and DOE conducted its final sale in FY 2021, thus no further
appropriations are requested in FY 2023. Funds in the ESIM account will be used for the Life Extension Phase II (LE2) SPR
infrastructure modernization project.

The U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA) is the statistical and analytical agency within the U.S. Department of Energy.
EIA collects, analyzes, and disseminates independent and impartial energy information to promote sound policymaking, efficient
markets, and public understanding of energy and its interaction with the economy and the environment. As the nation's premier
source of energy information, EIA conducts a data collection program covering the full spectrum of energy sources, end uses,
and energy flows; generates short- and long-term domestic and international energy forecasts and projections; and performs
timely, informative energy analyses. The FY 2023 request enables EIA to continue statistical and analysis activities that
produce reports critical to the nation, address emerging information needs such as those identified in the Bipartisan Infrastructure
Law (Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act, P.L. 117–58), and expand EIA's energy consumption survey program to collect new
data for the populated U.S. territories.

The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC or the Commission) is an independent agency that regulates the transmission
and wholesale sale of electricity and natural gas in interstate commerce, as well as the transportation of oil by pipelines
in interstate commerce. FERC also reviews proposals to build interstate natural gas pipelines, natural gas storage projects,
and liquefied natural gas (LNG) terminals, and FERC licenses non-federal hydropower projects. The Commission assists consumers
in obtaining reliable, safe, secure, and economically efficient energy services at a reasonable cost through appropriate regulatory
and market means, and collaborative efforts. Regulated entities pay fees and charges sufficient to recover the Commission's
full cost of operations.
Ensure Just and Reasonable Rates, Terms, and Conditions.— In carrying out its regulatory role, FERC uses a range of ratemaking activities, leveraging both regulatory and market
means. FERC establishes and applies rules and policies that will result in just, reasonable, and not unduly discriminatory
or preferential rates, terms, and conditions of jurisdictional service. The Commission fulfills this responsibility by determining
whether FERC rules and policies need to be added or changed, and by analyzing and acting on filings in a fair, clear, and
timely manner.
Oversight, surveillance and enforcement are essential complements to the Commission's approach to ensure that rates, terms
and conditions of service are just and reasonable and not unduly discriminatory or preferential. The Federal Power Act and
the Natural Gas Act, along with other statutory authorities, gives FERC oversight and enforcement responsibilities that focus
on promoting compliance of regulated entities and detecting and deterring market manipulation and other market violations.
The Commission assesses compliance and financial filings of regulated entities and monitors market activity and explores potential
violations.
Ensure Safe, Reliable, and Secure Infrastructure Consistent with the Public Interest.—The Commission plays an important role to promote infrastructure that is safe and reliable, both physically and cyber-secure,
and consistent with the public interest. Infrastructure for which FERC approval is required includes interstate natural gas
pipelines and storage projects, LNG facilities, and non-federal hydropower. In addition, the Commission has authority to site
electric transmission facilities in certain circumstances. The Commission reviews natural gas and hydropower infrastructure
proposals to facilitate benefits to the nation. FERC conducts thorough and timely technical review of applications to construct,
operate, or modify natural gas and hydropower infrastructure. The Commission also assesses compliance with environmental mitigation
conditions in FERC orders during construction and operation of natural gas and hydropower infrastructure.
The Commission also has an important role in minimizing risks to the public associated with FERC-jurisdictional energy infrastructure.
FERC conducts comprehensive and timely inspections of hydropower and LNG facilities to ensure compliance. The Commission protects
and improves the reliable and secure operation of the Bulk-Power System through mandatory and enforceable reliability standards.
The Commission also protects FERC-jurisdictional energy infrastructure through collaboration and sharing of best practices.
Provide Mission Support through Organizational Excellence.—The public interest is best served when the Commission operates in an efficient, responsive and transparent manner. FERC
pursues this by maintaining processes and providing services that enable FERC offices to manage resources effectively and
efficiently. The Commission also provides tools and services that equip employees to drive success and accomplish the agency's
mission. FERC will continue to make investments in its people, information technology (IT) resources, and facilities.
The Commission promotes transparency and equity, open communication, and a high standard of ethics to facilitate trust and
understanding of FERC's activities. FERC supports this by maintaining legal and other processes in accordance with the principles
of due process, fairness, and integrity. FERC considers matters involving environmental justice and equity consistent with
its statutory authority. In particular, the Commission has a strong commitment to working with affected communities, including
environmental justice communities and landowners who may be directly impacted by Commission decisions on jurisdictional infrastructure
proposals. The Commission also promotes understanding, participation, and engagement with the public, stakeholders, Tribes,
and jurisdictional entities. The Commission will increase its engagement with the public through its newly established Office
of Public Participation.

Section 136 of the Energy Independence and Security Act of 2007 (EISA) established a direct loan program to support the development
of advanced technology vehicles and associated components in the United States, known as the Advanced Technology Vehicles
Manufacturing (ATVM) Loan Program. The ATVM Loan Program provides loans to advanced technology vehicle and part manufacturers
for the cost of reequipping, expanding, or establishing manufacturing facilities in the United States to produce advanced
technology vehicles or qualified components and for associated engineering integration costs.
The Consolidated Security, Disaster, Assistance, and Continuing Appropriation Act of 2009 appropriated $7.5 billion for credit
subsidy costs to support a maximum of $25 billion in loans under the ATVM Loan Program. Per EISA subsection (d)(1), the full
credit subsidy cost must be paid using appropriated funds. Currently, the program has $17.7 billion in uncommitted loan authority
and $2.4 billion in unobligated credit subsidy available to support new projects.
The Bipartisan Infrastructure Law authorized an expanded scope of advanced technology vehicle modes eligible for ATVM loans,
including advanced medium- and heavy-duty vehicles, locomotives, maritime vessels, aircraft, and hyperloop technology. The
FY 2023 Budget proposes to enable the use of existing appropriated authority to support projects eligible under the expanded
scope.
In FY 2023, LPO requests $9.8 million to originate ATVM direct loans and monitor the program's growing portfolio. While the
FY 2023 Budget Request does not request new loan authority, LPO anticipates utilizing all remaining ATVM loan authority by
the end of FY 2023—closing approximately $5 billion in loans in FY 2022 and $13 billion in FY 2023.

The Title 17 Innovative Technology Loan Guarantee Program (Title 17), authorized by the Energy Policy Act of 2005 (EPAct of
2005), as amended, allows the Department of Energy (DOE) to provide loan guarantees for innovative energy projects that avoid,
reduce, or sequester air pollutants or anthropogenic emissions of greenhouse gases. Eligible technologies include energy efficient
and renewable energy systems; advanced fossil and carbon capture, sequestration, utilization and storage systems; energy storage;
virtual power plants; and various other clean energy projects.
Through the Title 17 loan guarantee program, the Loan Programs Office (LPO) provides access to debt capital for high-impact,
large-scale infrastructure projects and initial commercializations in the United States. Eligible projects must meet air pollutant
or greenhouse gases emissions requirements; 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.
As of January 2022, $22.4 billion in loan guarantee authority is available to support projects eligible under Section 1703.
In addition, $161 million in appropriated credit subsidy is remaining (from the FY 2011 full-year continuing resolution) that
can be used for renewable energy and efficient end-use technology projects.
The Bipartisan Infrastructure Law authorized an expanded scope of projects eligible under Title 17, including domestic critical
minerals supply chain and State energy financing institution-backed projects. The FY 2023 Budget proposes to enable the use
of existing appropriated authority to support projects eligible under this new authority.
The FY 2023 Budget requests $150,000,000 for credit subsidy and $5 billion in loan guarantee authority to support the full
range of projects eligible under Title 17. Available loan authority will increase by $5 billion from $22.4 billion to $27.4
billion. The Department expects to obligate approximately $6 billion of loan authority in FY 2022 and $4.5 billion of loan
authority in FY 2023.
The Budget requests $66,206,000 for administrative expenses to operate the Title 17 program. The Department estimates that
$48,000,000 will be received from fees pursuant to Section 1702(h) of the Energy Policy Act of 2005 and credited as offsetting
collection.

The Tribal Energy Loan Guarantee Program (TELGP) provides access to debt capital for tribal ownership of energy projects and
activities that support economic development and tribal sovereignty. TELGP is authorized pursuant to section 2602 of the Energy
Policy Act of 1992, as amended by the Energy Policy Act of 2005, to make available up to $2 billion in partial loan guarantees.
The Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2017, (H.R. 244, Public Law 115–31) appropriated $8.5 million to cover the credit subsidy
costs associated with the $2 billion in available loan authority.
The FY 2023 Budget proposes $1,860,000 in Administrative Expenses to continue outreach and originating activities and to monitor
the expected portfolio of TELGP projects. This funding level allows the Loan Programs Office to help achieve the Administration's
objectives of a carbon-pollution free electric sector by 2035 and net-zero emissions, economy-wide, by 2050, supporting placed-based
initiatives including energy community and Justice40 investments.

The Southeastern Power Administration (Southeastern) markets power generated at 22 U.S. Army Corps of Engineers' hydroelectric
generating plants in an eleven State area of the Southeast. Power deliveries are made by means of contracting for use of transmission
facilities owned by others.
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 the costs of operations and the capital invested in power facilities, with
interest, in keeping with statutory requirements. As in past years, the budget continues to provide funding for annual expenses
and purchase power and wheeling expenses through discretionary offsetting collections derived from power receipts collected
to recover those expenses.
Program Direction.—Provision is made for negotiation and administration of transmission and power contracts, collection of revenues, accounting
and budget activities, development of wholesale power rates, amortization of the Federal 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 53 million in 2022. As of the end of FY 2021, Southeastern's PPW reserve balance was $27 million.

Continuing Fund, Southeastern Power Administration
A continuing fund maintained from receipts from the sale and transmission of electric power in the Southeastern service area
is available to defray emergency expenses necessary to ensure continuity of service (16 U.S.C. 825s-2). The fund was last
activated in 2018 to finance power purchases associated with heightened demand and cost spikes due to severe cold weather.
Consistent with sound business practices, the Southeastern Power Administration has implemented a policy to recover all emergency
costs associated with purchased power and wheeling within one year from the time funds are expended.
Operation and maintenance, southwestern power administration
For expenses necessary for operation and maintenance of power transmission facilities and for marketing electric power and
energy, for construction and acquisition of transmission lines, substations and appurtenant facilities, and for administrative
expenses, including official reception and representation expenses in an amount not to exceed $1,500 in carrying out section
5 of the Flood Control Act of 1944 (16 U.S.C. 825s), as applied to the Southwestern Power Administration, $53,488,000, to
remain available until expended: Provided, That notwithstanding 31 U.S.C. 3302 and section 5 of the Flood Control Act of 1944 (16 U.S.C. 825s), up to $42,880,000 collected
by the Southwestern Power Administration from the sale of power and related services shall be credited to this account as
discretionary offsetting collections, to remain available until expended, for the sole purpose of funding the annual expenses
of the Southwestern Power Administration: Provided further, That the sum herein appropriated for annual expenses shall be reduced as collections are received during the fiscal year
so as to result in a final fiscal year 2023 appropriation estimated at not more than $10,608,000: Provided further, That notwithstanding 31 U.S.C. 3302, up to $70,000,000 collected by the Southwestern 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: Provided further, That for purposes of this appropriation, annual expenses means expenditures that are generally recovered in the same year

Southwestern Power Administration (Southwestern) operates in a six-state area marketing and delivering renewable hydroelectric
power produced at the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers' dams. Southwestern operates and maintains 1,381 miles of high voltage
transmission lines, 26 substations/switching stations, associated power system controls, and communication sites. Southwestern
also makes modifications and constructs additions to existing facilities.
Southwestern markets and delivers its power at wholesale rates to 78 municipal utilities, 21 rural electric cooperatives,
and 3 military installations. 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. Southwestern is also responsible for scheduling and
dispatching power and negotiating power sales contracts to meet changing customer load requirements. As in past years, the
budget continues to provide funding for annual expenses and purchase power and wheeling expenses through discretionary offsetting
collections derived from power receipts collected to recover those expenses.
Program Direction.—Provides compensation and all related expenses for personnel who market, deliver, operate, and maintain Southwestern's high-voltage
interconnected power system and associated facilities, those that perform cyber and physical security roles, and those that
administratively support these functions.
Operations and Maintenance.—Provides essential electrical and communications equipment replacements and upgrades, capitalized moveable equipment, technical
services, and supplies and materials necessary for the safe, reliable, and cost effective operation and maintenance of the
power system.
Purchase Power and Wheeling.—Provides for the purchase and delivery of energy to meet limited peaking power contractual obligations. Federal power receipts
and alternative financing methods, including net billing, and customer advances are used to fund system-purchased power support
and other contractual services. Southwestern has implemented a Purchase Power and Wheeling (PPW) risk mitigation strategy
to ensure continuous operations during periods of significant drought. The strategy was developed consistent with existing
authorities, and with the participation and support of Southwestern's power customers. Under this approach, Southwestern retains
receipts from the recovery of purchase power and wheeling expenses within the 'up to' amount specified by Congress. The receipts
retained are available until expended and are available only for PPW expenses. As of the end of FY 2021, Southwestern's PPW
reserve balance was $86 million. Customers will provide other power resources and/or purchases for the remainder of their
firm loads.

1The FY 2022 and FY 2023 Estimates assume spending authority from offsetting collections equals the 'up to' ceiling and that
obligations incurred are the same amount as the spending authority for FY 2023. Actual spending authority from offsetting
collections and actual obligations will be dependent upon variability in market prices for PPW and hydrological conditions
in Southwestern's region, which vary significantly, are largely unpredictable, and can change quickly.
Construction.—Provides for replacement, addition or upgrade of existing infrastructure to sustain reliable delivery of power to its customers,
contain annual maintenance costs, and improve overall efficiency.
Reimbursable Program.—This activity involves services provided by Southwestern to others under various types of reimbursable arrangements.

A continuing fund, maintained from receipts from the sale and transmission of electric power in the Southwestern Power Administration
service area, is available permanently for emergency expenses necessary to ensure continuity of electric service and continuous
operation of the facilities. The fund is also available on an ongoing basis to pay 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 101–101). The fund
was last activated in FY 2009 to repair and replace damaged transmission lines due to an ice storm.

The Western Area Power Administration (WAPA) markets electric power in 15 central and western states from federally owned
power plants operated primarily by the Bureau of Reclamation, the Army Corps of Engineers, and the International Boundary
and Water Commission. WAPA operates and maintains about 17,000 circuit-miles of high-voltage transmission lines, more than
300 substations/switchyards and associated power system controls, and communication and electrical facilities for 15 separate
power projects. WAPA also constructs additions and modifications to existing facilities.
In keeping with statutory requirements, WAPA's long-term power contracts allow for periodic rate adjustments to ensure that
the Federal Government recovers costs of operations, other costs allocated to power, and the capital investment in power facilities,
with interest.
Power is sold to nearly 700 wholesale customers, including DOE's National Labs, more than two dozen U.S. Department of Defense
installations, municipalities, cooperatives, irrigation districts, public utility districts, other 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.
As in past years, the budget continues to provide funding for annual expenses and purchase power and wheeling expenses through
discretionary offsetting collections derived from power receipts collected to recover those expenses.
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 distribution
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.
WAPA has implemented a Purchase Power and Wheeling (PPW) risk mitigation strategy to ensure continuous operations during periods
of significant drought. The strategy was developed consistent with existing authorities, and with the participation and support
of WAPA power customers. Under this approach, WAPA retains receipts from the recovery of purchase power and wheeling expenses
within the 'up to' amount specified by Congress. The receipts retained are available until expended, and are available only
for purchase power and wheeling expenses. As of the end of FY 2021, WAPA's PPW reserve balance was $217 million.

System Construction.—WAPA'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.
WAPA will continue to participate in joint construction projects with customers to encourage more widespread transmission
access.
Program Direction.—Provides compensation and all related expenses for the workforce that operates and maintains WAPA'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.
Reimbursable Program.—This program involves services provided by WAPA to others under various types of reimbursable arrangements. WAPA's reimbursable
authority and partnerships also support responses to natural disasters - to restore the energy infrastructure and access to
power.
WAPA 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 WAPA to obligate directly from the Colorado
River Dam Fund comes from section 104(a) of the Hoover Power Plant Act of 1984.
The Bipartisan Infrastructure Law (BIL) (Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act, P.L. 117–58) provided WAPA with additional
resources for purchase power and wheeling.

The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (the Act) provided Western Area Power Administration (WAPA) borrowing authority
for the purpose of constructing, financing, facilitating, planning, operating, maintaining, or studying construction of new
or upgraded electric power transmission lines and related facilities with at least one terminus within the area served by
WAPA, and for delivering or facilitating the delivery of power generated by renewable energy resources. This authority to
borrow from the United States Treasury is available to WAPA on a permanent, indefinite basis, with the amount of borrowing
outstanding not to exceed $3.25 billion at any one time. WAPA established the Transmission Infrastructure Program (TIP) to
manage and administer this borrowing authority and its related program requirements.

An emergency fund 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 last activated in fiscal year 2010 to repair and replace damaged transmission
lines due to severe winter storm conditions.
Falcon and amistad operating and maintenance fund
For operation, maintenance, and emergency costs for the hydroelectric facilities at the Falcon and Amistad Dams, $6,330,000,
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 2 of the Act of June 18, 1954 (68 Stat. 255): Provided, That notwithstanding the provisions of that Act and of 31 U.S.C. 3302, up to $6,102,000 collected by the Western Area Power
Administration from the sale of power and related services from the Falcon and Amistad Dams shall be credited to this account
as discretionary offsetting collections, to remain available until expended for the sole purpose of funding the annual expenses
of the hydroelectric facilities of these Dams and associated Western Area Power Administration activities: Provided further, That the sum herein appropriated for annual expenses shall be reduced as collections are received during the fiscal year
so as to result in a final fiscal year 2023 appropriation estimated at not more than $228,000: Provided further, That for purposes of this appropriation, annual expenses means expenditures that are generally recovered in the same year
that they are incurred: Provided further, That for fiscal year 2023, the Administrator of the Western Area Power Administration may accept up to $1,598,000 in funds
contributed by United States power customers of the Falcon and Amistad Dams for deposit into the Falcon and Amistad Operating
and Maintenance Fund, and such funds shall be available for the purpose for which contributed in like manner as if said sums
had been specifically appropriated for such purpose: Provided further, That any such funds shall be available without further appropriation and without fiscal year limitation for use by the Commissioner
of the United States Section of the International Boundary and Water Commission for the sole purpose of operating, maintaining,
repairing, rehabilitating, replacing, or upgrading the hydroelectric facilities at these Dams in accordance with agreements
reached between the Administrator, Commissioner, and the power customers.
Note.—A full-year 2022 appropriation for this account was not enacted at the time the Budget was prepared; therefore, the
Budget assumes this account is operating under the Continuing Appropriations Act, 2022 (Division A of Public Law 117–43, as
amended). The amounts included for 2022 reflect the annualized level provided by the continuing resolution.

Pursuant to section 2 of the Act of June 18, 1954, as amended, Western Area Power Administration is requesting funding for
the Falcon and Amistad Operating and Maintenance Fund to defray operations, maintenance, and emergency (OM&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. Within the
fund, $200,000 is for an emergency reserve that will remain unobligated unless unanticipated expenses arise. The budget provides
funding for annual expenses through discretionary offsetting collections derived from power receipts collected to recover
those expenses. The budget also provides authority to use customer advances. The contributed customer funds will finance the
capital replacement requirements of the projects.

Western Area Power Administration's (WAPA) operation and maintenance (O&M) and power marketing expenses for the Colorado River
Storage Project, the Seedskadee Project, the Dolores Project, the Olmsted Replacement Project, and the Fort Peck Project are
financed from power revenues.
Colorado River Storage Project.—WAPA 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 in Arizona, 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.
Seedskadee Project.—This project includes WAPA's expenses for O&M, power marketing, and transmission of hydroelectric power from the Fontenelle
Dam power plant in southwestern Wyoming.
Dolores Project.—This project includes WAPA's expenses for O&M, power marketing, and transmission of hydroelectric power from power plants
at McPhee Dam and Towaoc Canal in southwestern Colorado.
Fort Peck Project.—Revenues collected by WAPA are used to defray operation and maintenance and power marketing expenses associated with the
power generation and transmission facilities of the Fort Peck Project, and WAPA operates and maintains the transmission system
and performs power marketing functions.
Olmsted Replacement Project.—This project includes WAPA's expenses for power marketing of hydroelectric power from the Olmsted Power Plant in Northern
Utah.
Equipment, Contracts and Related Expenses.—WAPA operates and maintains approximately 4,000 miles of transmission lines, substations, switchyards, communications, and
control equipment associated with this fund. Wholesale power is provided to utilities over interconnected high-voltage transmission
systems. In keeping with statutory requirements, long-term power contracts provide for periodic rate adjustments to ensure
that the Federal Government recovers all costs of O&M, and all capital invested in power, with interest. This activity provides
for the supplies, materials, services, capital equipment replacements, and additions, including communications and control
equipment, purchase power, transmission and wheeling services, and interest payments to the U.S. Treasury.
Program Direction.—The personnel compensation and related expenses for all these activities are quantified under Program Direction.

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 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 50 percent of the region's electric energy supply and
about three-fourths of the region's high-voltage 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 finances its operations with a business-type budget under the Government Corporation Control Act, 31 U.S.C. 9101–10, on
the basis of the self-financing authority provided by the Federal Columbia River Transmission System Act of 1974 (Transmission
Act) (Public Law 93–454) and the U.S. Treasury borrowing authority provided by the Transmission Act, the Pacific Northwest
Electric Power Planning and Conservation Act (Pacific Northwest Power Act) (Public Law 96–501) for energy conservation, renewable
energy resources, capital fish facilities, and other purposes, the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (Public
Law 111–5), Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act of 2021 (section 40110) (Public Law 117–58), and other legislation. Authority
to borrow from the U.S. Treasury is available to the BPA on a permanent, indefinite basis. The amount of U.S. Treasury borrowing
outstanding at any time cannot exceed $17.70 billion. BPA finances its approximate $4.4 billion annual cost of operations
and investments primarily using power and transmission revenues and loans from the U.S. Treasury.
Operating Expenses—Transmission Services.—Provides for operating over 15,100 circuit miles of high-voltage transmissions lines and 262 substations, and for maintaining
the facilities and equipment of the Bonneville transmission system in 2023.
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 allocated to power the 31 U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and U.S. Bureau of Reclamation hydro projects, amortization on
the capital investment in power generating facilities, and irrigation assistance at U.S. Bureau of Reclamation 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 U.S. Treasury borrowings to finance BPA's capital investments
under $17.70 billion of U.S. Treasury borrowing authority provided by the Transmission Act; the Pacific Northwest Power Act
for energy conservation, renewable energy resources, capital fish facilities, and other purposes; the American Recovery and
Reinvestment Act of 2009; Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act of 2021, and other legislation. This interest category also
includes interest on U.S. Army 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.
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, 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.
Total Capital Obligations.—The 2023 capital obligations are estimated to be $842.5 million.
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. BPA has $17.70 billion of U.S. Treasury borrowing authority
provided by the Transmission Act; the Pacific Northwest Power Act for energy conservation, renewable energy resources, capital
fish facilities, and other purposes; the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009; Infrastructure Investment and Jobs
Act of 2021, and other legislation. At the end of 2021, BPA had outstanding bonds with the U.S. Treasury of $5,629 million.
At the end of 2021, BPA also had $7,191.1 million of non-Federal debt outstanding, including Energy Northwest bonds. BPA will
rely primarily on its U.S. Treasury borrowing authority to finance capital projects, but may also elect to use cash reserves
generated by revenues from customers or seek third party financing sources when feasible to finance some of these investments.
In 2021, BPA made payments to the Treasury of $1,049 million and also expects to make payments of $935 million in 2022 and
$971 million in 2023. The 2023 payment is expected to be distributed as follows: interest on bonds and appropriations ( $192
million), amortization ( $734 million), and other ( $45 million). BPA also received credits totaling approximately $111 million
applied against its Treasury payments in 2021 of which $90.6 million reflected amounts diverted to fish mitigation efforts,
but not allocable to power, in the Columbia and Snake River systems.
BPA, with input from its stakeholders, considers other strategies to sustain funding for its infrastructure investment requirements
as well. BPA's Financial Plan defines strategies and policies for guiding how BPA will manage risk and variability of electricity
markets and water years. It also describes how BPA will continue to manage to ensure it meets its Treasury repayment responsibilities.
Direct Loans.—During 2023, no new direct loan obligations may be made.
Operating Results.—Total revenues are forecast at approximately $3.9 billion in 2023.
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 and the power share of FCRPS U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and U.S. Bureau of Reclamation employees
working under the Federal Employees Retirement System is fully recovered in wholesale electric power and transmission rates.

The Office of Inspector General (OIG) provides Department-wide (including the National Nuclear Security Administration and
the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission) audit, inspection, and investigative functions to identify and recommend corrections
for management and administrative deficiencies, which create conditions for existing or potential instances of fraud, waste,
abuse or violations of law. The audit function provides financial and performance audits of programs and operations. The inspection
function provides independent inspection and analysis of the performance 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 efficiency; 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.
