[House Document 107-135] [From the U.S. Government Publishing Office] 107th Congress, 1st Session - - - - - - - - - - -House Document 107-135 EMERGENCY SUPPLEMENTAL APPROPRIATIONS REQUEST __________ COMMUNICATION from THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES TRANSMITTING EMERGENCY SUPPLEMENTAL APPROPRIATIONS ACT FOR RECOVERY FROM AND RESPONSE TO TERRORIST ATTACKS ON THE UNITED STATESOctober 17, 2001.--Referred to the Committee on Appropriations and ordered to be printed The White House, Washington, October 17, 2001. Hon. J. Dennis Hastert, Speaker of the House of Representatives, Washington, DC. Dear Mr. Speaker: In accordance with provisions of Public Law 107-38, the Emergency Supplemental Appropriations Act for Recovery from and Response to Terrorist Attacks on the United States, FY 2001, I ask the Congress to consider expeditiously the enclosed proposals, totaling $20 billion, to enable the Government to continue to provide assistance to the victims of the September 11th attacks and to deal with the consequences of the attacks. Public Law 107-38--legislation crafted and enacted with strong bipartisan cooperation--provided a total of $40 billion in emergency funding to the Emergency Response Fund. The $40 billion in emergency expenses enacted in Public Law 107-38 was provided to assist victims of the attacks and to deal with other consequences of the attacks, including the costs of: (1) providing Federal, State, and local preparedness for mitigating and responding to the attacks; (2) providing support to counter, investigate, or prosecute domestic or international terrorism; (3) providing increased transportation security; (4) repairing public facilities and transportation systems damaged by the attacks; and (5) supporting national security. As required by Public Law 107-38, on September 18th, I designated the entire $40 billion as an emergency funding requirement. Today, I hereby request and designate these individual proposals as emergency funding requirements pursuant to section 251(b)(2)(A) of the Balanced Budget and Emergency Deficit Control Act of 1985, as amended. In addition, I hereby designate the funds in or credited to the Defense Cooperation Account during FY 2002 as emergency requirements pursuant to section 251(b)(2)(A) of such Act. I am proud that we have continued to work together with such bipartisan spirit in the weeks following the despicable attacks on our Nation. Since final estimates of the total resources needed to address the consequences of this tragedy will not be known for months to come, I urge the Congress to enact--without delay--these specific requests that address immediate, near-term needs and that represent currently defined and certain requirements. My Administration does not intend to seek additional supplemental funding for either domestic or defense needs for the remainder of this session of Congress. If further requirements become clear, we will work with the Congress to address additional needs in the Second Session of the 107th Congress. In addition, we will assess the manner in which our FY 2003 Budget will address further needs as they relate to the September 11th terrorist attacks. The details of these actions are set forth in the enclosed letter from the Director of the Office of Management and Budget. I concur with his comments and observations. Sincerely, George W. Bush. Enclosure. [Estimate No. 19, 107th Cong., 1st Sess.] Executive Office of the President, Office of Management and Budget, Washington, DC, October 16, 2001. The President, The White House. Submitted for your consideration are emergency funding requests, totaling $20.0 billion, for various Federal Departments and agencies, as well as the Legislative and Judicial Branches. Also included are several language proposals, including legislation for the Department of Defense, the U.S. Agency for International Development, and the Small Business Administration. P.L. 107-38, the Emergency Supplemental Appropriations Act for Recovery from and Response to Terrorist Attacks on the United States, FY 2001, provided $40.0 billion to the Emergency Response Fund in the Executive Office of the President. The Act provides that $10 billion would be available without any further congressional action. Of that amount, you have made available to date a total of $7.2 billion. In addition, P.L. 107-38 included $10.0 billion that would be available 15 days after OMB has submitted proposal allocations to the House and Senate Committee on Appropriations. The $20.0 billion proposed for your consideration today would not be available for obligation until enactment in a subsequent emergency appropriations bill. The $40 billion in emergency expenses enacted in P.L. 107- 38 was provided to assist victims of the attacks and to deal with other consequences of the attacks, including the costs of: (1) providing Federal, State, and local preparedness for mitigating and responding to the attacks; (2) providing support to counter, investigate, or prosecute domestic or international terrorism; (3) providing increased transportation security; (4) repairing public facilities and transportation systems damaged by the attacks; and (5) supporting national security. Further, pursuant to the Act, not less than one half of the $40 billion is to be ``disaster recovery activities and assistance related to the terrorist attacks in New York, Virginia, and Pennsylvania.'' The requests in this transmittal follow an extensive review of individual agency proposals to identify those requirements that are immediate and near-term. The current proposals support identified requirements and represent the crucial initial steps toward recovery. We will not seek additional supplemental funding for either domestic or defense needs for the remainder of this session of Congress. If further requirements become clear, we will work with the Congress on additional needs that may arise during the Second Session of the 107th Congress. As described below and in more detail in the enclosures, the requests include the following: Department of Agriculture (USDA) The funding proposed for USDA would support: enhanced security for USDA facilities ($17.2 million); design and construction of a facility in Ames, Iowa to store and conduct research on biohazards material ($14.1 million); technical assistance to State, local, Federal, and private sector entities to improve the identification and response to a bioterrorist attack ($5.0 million); and training to improve response to food supply threats, implement countermeasures, improve data collection and dissemination, and other bioterrorism protection activities ($8.9 million). Department of Commerce (DOC) The $26.9 million in funding proposed for DOC would largely be used for emergency grants to assist public broadcasters in restoring facilities and capabilities that were destroyed in the collapse of the World Trade Center towers and to support departmental security enhancements, both at home and abroad. Department of Defense (DOD) A total of $7.4 billion is now requested to support DOD's crisis and recovery operations and national security responsibilities. These resources include: $2,938.0 million for increased worldwide posture; $1,735.0 million for increased situational awareness; $925.0 million for repair and upgrade of the Pentagon: $881.0 million for enhanced force protection; $545.0 million for offensive counterterrorism; $219.0 million for improved command and control; and $106.0 million for initial crisis response.

Department of Energy (DOE) Of the $117.7 million requested for DOE, $106.0 million would be used to improve the security of the Nation's nuclear stockpile and infrastructure, including $91.0 million for additional on-site security measures and plant reconfiguration at defense-related national laboratories and production plants and $15.0 million for additional transportation safeguards and security to protect and prevent sabotage of stockpile components and material while in transit.

Department of Labor (DOL) The funding proposed for DOL would provide $2.0 billion for National Emergency Grants, authorized under section 173 of the Workforce Investment Act, to States to assist workers who were dislocated by the attacks of September 11, 2001. The Administration will request an additional $1.0 billion for the National Emergency Grants with the FY 2003 Budget submission. Grants may provide employment and training assistance, including assistance in paying to continue health coverage to dislocated workers, as authorized under the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act (COBRA), if the Governor certifies in the grant application to the Secretary of Labor that the attacks of September 11th contributed importantly to closures or layoffs. An additional $12.6 million would support needs of various DOL bureaus in recovering from damage incurred in the attacks in New York, as well as other security measures.

Corps of Engineers An additional $139.0 million is requested to support increased security at over 300 critical Army Corps of Engineers owned and operated infrastructure facilities (e.g., dams and navigation facilities), including enhanced physical security and facility vulnerability assessments to determine further facility security needs. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) A total of $76.0 million is proposed for EPA and would support activities such as drinking water assessments, replacement of equipment destroyed in New York and various security enhancements. Executive Office of the President This proposed would provide $50.0 million to enable the Executive Office of the President to meet additional requirements in response to the September 11th terrorist attacks and to ensure the continuity of support and services to the President and Vice President of the United States. Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) Of the $5.5 billion now requested for FEMA, $4.9 billion would support additional disaster reliefs in New Jersey, New York, and Virginia, and would be used to help individual victims, remove debris from the World Trade Center site, and assist in the rebuilding of critical public infrastructure. An additional $0.6 billion would enable FEMA to provide equipment and training grants to States and localities to improve terrorism and chemical-biological response capabilities, as well as support the Office of National Preparedness in its efforts to improve terrorism preparedness coordination and liaison between Federal, State, and local governments.

National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) An additional $93.1 million is proposed for NASA in order to maintain a heightened state of security at 10 field centers and at NASA headquarters in FY 2002. These funds will provide resources for the costs of: additional security personnel and overtime compensation; modifications to security perimeters; construction of additional checkpoints; additional security monitoring and communications equipment; relocation of critical functions and personnel; and increased air and sea patrols at the Kennedy Space Center in Florida. Small Business Administration (SBA) This proposal would provide $150.0 million for SBA's disaster loan program to support $600.0 million in low interest loans to businesses impacted by the terrorist attacks. In an accompanying request in this transmittal, the Administration proposes to raise the $1.5 million aggregate cap on loans to a single borrower to $10.0 million for businesses directly impacted by the disasters in New York, Virginia, and Pennsylvania. In addition, the Administration would allow non- profit organizations and non-depository financial companies to receive economic injury loans from SBA. Other Agencies For costs associated with reconstruction of offices destroyed during the attacks, increased security measures, and certain investigative activities, the following amounts are requested: $1.0 million for the Department of Housing and Urban Development; $2.0 million for the Department of Veterans Affairs; $0.3 million for the National Science Foundation; $7.5 million for the Social Security Administration; $6.5 million for the Commodity Futures Trading Commission; $25.0 million for the District of Columbia; $1.3 million for the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission; $7.0 million for the National Archives and Records Administration; $0.8 million for the National Capital Planning Commission; $0.2 million for the National Labor Relations Board; $0.8 million for the National Transportation Safety Board; $20.7 million for the Securities and Exchange Commission; and $28.2 million for the Smithsonian Institution, including the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts and the National Gallery of Art. Legislative Branch This proposal would provide $256.1 million to the Legislative Branch to enhance the security posture of the Capitol Hill complex, the Government Printing Office, and the General Accounting Office, and to perform actions that can be taken to reduce the risk and potential damage to life and property caused by future terrorist events. Judicial Branch Of the $31.5 million proposed for the Judicial Branch, $17.5 million would cover the costs of additional court security officer hours; $10.0 million would be used to enhance the security posture of the Supreme Court building; and $4.0 million would support a Supervisory Deputy Marshal responsible for coordinating security in each judicial district and circuit. I have carefully reviewed these proposals and am satisfied that they are necessary at this time. Therefore, I join the heads of the affected Departments and agencies in recommending that you transmit the proposals to the Congress. In addition, I recommend that you designate the funds in the individual proposals enclosed as emergency funding requirements pursuant to section 251(b)(2)(A) of the Balanced Budget and Emergency Deficit Control Act of 1985, as amended. In addition, I recommend that you designate the funds in or credited to the Defense Cooperation Account during FY 2002 as emergency requirements pursuant to section 251(b)(2)(A) of such Act.

This proposal would support the following items: Increased Worldwide Posture ($2,938,000,000): These resources would fund necessary preparations for, and conduct of, military response to the September 11, 2001 attacks and the heightened threat environment. Costs include mobilization of Reserve Forces, movement of pre-positioned stocks, purchase of high-priority spare parts and medical stocks that are in short supply, rebuild of major combat systems to fill current Active and Reserve unit shortages, and purchase of critical ammunition to bring stocks required levels. Costs identified cover initial, limited contingency and humanitarian operations. Increased Situational Awareness ($1,432,000,000): These funds will support ongoing military operations and enhance U.S. intelligence, reconnaissance, surveillance, and targeting capabilities against terrorist organizations. Enhanced Force Protection ($880,969,000): These resources would fund actions taken to better protect military personnel and facilities against terrorist attacks based on vulnerability assessments. These force protection activities include improved security, access control, training, chemical-biological detection and consequence management, and antiterrorism countermeasures. Pentagon Repair/Upgrade ($925,000,000): These resources would be used to repair the damage that resulted from the September 11th attack on the Pentagon. This includes structural repairs required to make the building safe, exterior repairs, and repairs to interior fire and water damage. Also funded is the costs of equipment replacement damaged in the attack, relocation and lease costs for displaced employees, and additional antiterrorism enhancements to the Pentagon. Offensive Counterterrorism ($545,000,000): These funds would be used primarily to procure munitions in order to increase production rates. Funds in this category will position U.S. military forces to sustain counterterrorism efforts into the future. Improved Command and Control ($219,000,000): These funds would support, upgrade, and enhance U.S. communications capabilities to provide for more robust command and control. Such efforts include replacing communications equipment lost in the attacks, increasing network security, procuring additional communications gear, and enhancing overall network reliability and connectivity.

This includes the cost of flying air patrols and deploying aircraft carriers to protect New York City and Washington, D.C. In addition, this response funds military support for disaster relief, including increasing security at the Pentagon, mortuary services, and support to the Federal Emergency Management Agency. ------ DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE Procurement OTHER PROCUREMENT, AIR FORCE For emergency expenses to respond to the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks on the United States, for ``Other Procurement, Air Force,'' $303,000,000, to remain available until expended, to be obligated from amounts made available in Public Law 107-38. This proposal would support increased situational awareness. ------ DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE General Provisions Sec. . Amounts available in the ``Defense Emergency Response Fund'' shall be available for the purposes set forth in the 2001 Emergency Supplemental Appropriations Act for Recovery from and Response to Terrorist Attacks on the United States (Public Law 107-38): Provided, That the Fund may be used to reimburse other appropriations or funds of the Department of Defense only for costs incurred for such purposes between September 11 and December 31, 2001: Provided further, That such Fund may be used to liquidate obligations incurred by the Department under the authorities in 41 U.S.C. 11 for any costs incurred for such purposes between September 11 and September 30, 2001: Provided further, That the Secretary of Defense may transfer to the Fund amounts from any other current appropriation, to be available for the same purposes as the Fund: Provided further, That the Secretary of Defense may transfer funds from the Fund to the appropriation, ``Support for International Sporting Competitions, Defense,'' to be merged with, and available for the same time period and for the same purposes as that appropriation: Provided further, That the transfer authority provided by this section is in addition to any other transfer authority available to the Secretary of Defense: Provided further, That the Secretary of Defense shall report to the Congress quarterly all transfers made pursuant to this authority. This proposal would clarify that amounts appropriated to the President's Emergency Response Fund by P.L. 107-38, the 2001 Emergency Supplemental Appropriations Act for Recovery from and Response to Terrorist Attacks on the United States (``the Act'') and transferred to the Defense Emergency Response Fund are available for the purposes set forth in that Act. Further, this proposal would give the Department of Defense (DOD) the necessary flexibility to reimburse DOD appropriations for those costs incurred for the purposes of the Act beginning on September 11, 2001 and ending December 31, 2001. Funds reimbursed to other DOD accounts would have the same term of availability as the funds originally obligated from those accounts. Also, to address situations where the cost to complete a project commenced with funds from the Defense Emergency Response Fund may exceed amounts available in the Fund, additional amounts may be transferred to the Fund from other DOD funds or appropriations. Authority is also provided to the Secretary to transfer funds to the appropriation, ``Support for International Sporting Competitions, Defense.'' The Department will report to the Congress quarterly all transfers made pursuant to this authority. Sec. . Amounts made available to the Department of Defense from funds appropriated in Public Law 107-38 and this Act may be used to carry out military construction projects, not otherwise authorized by law, that the Secretary of Defense determines are necessary to respond to or protect against acts or threatened acts of terrorism: Provided, That the Secretary shall notify the appropriate committees of Congress of his determination and the estimated cost of each such project. The proposed language would authorize DOD to use funds made available pursuant to P.L. 107-38 to fund military construction projects, not otherwise authorized by law, that are undertaken to respond to or protect against terrorist activity. Sec. . During the current fiscal year, amounts in or credited to the Defense Cooperation Account under 10 U.S.C. 2608(b) shall be available for the purposes for which such amounts were contributed and accepted: Provided, That these amounts are designated by the Congress as an emergency requirement pursuant to section 251(b)(2)(A) of the Balanced Budget and Emergency Deficit Control Act of 1985, as amended: Provided further, That the Secretary of Defense shall report to the Congress quarterly all obligations made pursuant to this authority. Under current law, funds contributed to DOD and deposited into the Defense Cooperation Account are not available for obligation and expenditure except to the extent provided in subsequent appropriations Acts. The proposed language will permit the Department to use such contributions during the current fiscal year. Further, these funds have been designated by the President as emergency requirements pursuant to the Balanced Budget and Emergency Deficit Control Act of 1985, as amended. The Department will also report to the Congress quarterly all obligations made pursuant to this authority. Sec. . Amounts in the ``Support for International Sporting Competitions, Defense,'' may be used to support essential security and safety for the 2002 Winter Olympic Games in Salt Lake City, Utah, without the certification required under subsection 10 U.S.C. 2564(a). Further, the term ``active duty,'' in section 5802 of Public Law 104-208 shall include State active duty and full-time National Guard duty performed by members of the Army National Guard and Air National Guard in connection with providing essential security and safety support to the 2002 Winter Olympic Games and logistical and security support to the 2002 Paralympic Games. This proposal would temporarily waive the requirement to obtain Attorney General certification that DOD assistance to the 2002 Winter Olympic Games is necessary to meet essential security and safety needs. All support categories currently requested and approved for that event has already been certified by the Attorney General. The waiver would allow for a quick response to unforeseen requests that may come in shortly before or during the games. All such requests would be determined to be in support of essential security and safety by the United States Secret Service because the 2002 Winter Olympic Games has been designated as a special event of national significance by the President. This proposal would also authorize the use of the funds in the account to reimburse a State or the appropriate Federal military pay account for pay and allowances paid to a member of the Army National Guard or Air National Guard while performing State active duty or full-time National Guard duty in an essential security augmentation role that could not be accomplished by civilian law enforcement agencies and would otherwise be inappropriate for active duty personnel in Federal status because of the prohibition of section 1385 of title 18, United States Code (Posse Comitatus Act). Currently, the account may only be used for the pay and non-travel allowances of members of the reserve components serving in an active duty status under title 10, United States Code. Sec. . Funds appropriated by this Act, or made available by the transfer of funds in this Act, for intelligence activities are deemed to be specifically authorized by the Congress for purposes of section 504 of the National Security Act of 1947 (50 U.S.C. 414). ------ DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION Office of Elementary and Secondary Education School Improvement Programs For emergency expenses to respond to the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks on the United States, for ``School Improvement Programs,'' for the Project School Emergency Response to Violence program, $10,000,000, to be obligated from amounts make available in Public Law 107-38. Funding is requested to enable the Department of Education to provide crisis recovery services in New York and other jurisdictions for students, educators, and their families under the Safe and Drug-Free Schools and Communities National Programs Project SERV (School Emergency Response to Violence). The $10.0 million requested would support activities such as counseling and mental health assessments, referrals, and other activities that are essential to restore the teaching and learning environment in schools. ------ DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY National Nuclear Security Administration Weapons Activities For emergency expenses to respond to the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks on the United States, and for other expenses to increase the security of the Nation's nuclear weapons complex, for ``Weapons Activities,'' $106,000,000, to remain available until expended, to be obligated from amounts made available in Public Law 107-38. A total of $106.0 million is requested for the Department of Energy's National Nuclear Security Administration's Weapons Activities account to improve security of the Nation's nuclear stockpile and infrastructure. Included in this amount is:
$91.0 million for additional on-site security measures and plant reconfiguration at defense- related national laboratories and production plants; and $15.0 million for additional transportation safeguards and security to protect and prevent sabotage of stockpile components and material while in transit. ------ DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY Environmental and Other Defense Activities DEFENSE ENVIRONMENTAL RESTORATION AND WASTE MANAGEMENT For emergency expenses to respond to the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks on the United States, for ``Defense Environmental Restoration and Waste Management,'' $8,200,000, to remain available until expended, to be obligated from amounts made available in Public Law 107-38. Funding is requested for the Department of Energy for preparedness in mitigating and responding to the terrorist attacks.
