 REQUESTS FOR FY 2002 BUDGET AMENDMENTS FOR THE DEPARTMENTS OF ENERGY,

 May 7, 2001.--Referred to the Committee on Appropriations and ordered 
                             to be printed
                                           The White House,
                                           Washington, May 7, 2001.
The Speaker of the House of Representatives.
    Sir: I ask the Congress to consider the enclosed requests 
for FY 2002 budget amendments for the Departments of Energy, 
Housing and Urban Development, the Interior, Justice, 
Transportation, and the Treasury; the Executive Office of the 
President; and Federal Drug Control Programs. In aggregate, the 
discretionary resources proposed in my FY 2002 Budget would not 
be affected by these requests.
    This transmittal also contains FY 2002 budget amendments 
for the Legislative Branch. As required by law, appropriations 
requests of the Legislative Branch are transmitted without 
change.
    The details of these requests 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.
                           [Estimated No. 4]

                 Executive Office of the President,
                           Office of Management and Budget,
                                       Washington, DC, May 7, 2001.
The President,
The White House.
    Submitted for your consideration are requests for FY 2002 
budget amendments for the Departments of Energy, Housing and 
Urban Development, the Interior, Justice; Transportation, and 
the Treasury; the Executive Office of the President; and 
Federal Drug Control Programs. In total, the discretionary 
funding proposed in the FY 2002 Budget would not be affected by 
these amendments.
    As described below and in more detail in the enclosures, 
the amendments include the following:
Department of Energy
     An increase of $39.2 million is requested for the 
Energy Supply account. The proposal is fully offset by a 
corresponding reduction in the Energy Conservation account. The 
proposed additional resources in the Energy Supply account 
would provide increased support for research and development of 
renewable energy resources in the Office of Energy Efficiency 
and Renewable Energy.
    Under separate cover, the Secretary of Energy will 
communicate to the appropriations committees revised budget 
justifications redirecting $10 million within the Science 
account and $2.5 million within the Energy Conservation 
account. These revisions will better focus resources on 
priorities agreed to by OMB and the Secretary.
Department of the Interior
     An increase of $30.0 million is proposed for the 
Save America's Treasures program. This program would provide 
matching grants to Federal, State, and local agencies and non-
governmental organizations for the preservation of nationally 
significant historic sites, structures, and artifacts. This 
program would leverage private funding by requiring an equal 
match of non-Federal funds for projects to restore nationally 
significant historic sites, structures or artifacts. The 
President's Committee on the Arts and Humanities would serve as 
the advisory council to the Secretary of the Interior regarding 
funding awards. The existing partnership with the National 
Trust for Historic Preservation would continue in order to 
ensure private funding, and other partnerships would be 
encouraged. The requested FY 2002 budget authority increase of 
$30.0 million would be offset by a corresponding reduction in 
the FY 2002 Budget's proposed National Emergency Reserve.
Executive Office of the President
     A proposal is also included that would consolidate 
18 separate appropriations for Executive Office of the 
President (EOP) agencies and accounts into a single 
appropriation. This proposal would give you maximum flexibility 
in allocating resources in support of the Office of the 
President to those functional areas where you place priority 
and require staff support. It would permit a more rapid 
response to changing needs and priorities to address national 
needs by allowing shifts of personnel and resources among the 
various EOP agencies, without waiting for the next budget 
cycle. The proposal would offer greater economies of scale, 
efficiencies in purchasing, and greater accountability for 
performance would be realized. The proposal would also permit 
the newly-established EOP Chief Financial Officer to better 
fulfill his or her responsibilities. The overall EOP funding 
level would remain unchanged.
Other FY 2002 Amendments
    Technical amendments to your FY 2002 Budget are included in 
this transmittal for the Departments of Energy, Housing and 
Urban Development, the Interior, Justice, Transportation, and 
the Treasury; and Federal Drug Control Programs.
    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, this transmittal includes budget amendments 
for the Legislative Branch. As required by law, appropriations 
requests of the Legislative Branch are transmitted without 
change.
            Sincerely,
                                Mitchell E. Daniels, Jr., Director.
    Enclosures.

FY 2002 Budget Appendix Page: 404
FY 2002 Pending Request: $505,069,000
Proposed Amendment: $39,176,000
Revised Request: $544,245,000

    This amendment would increase the FY 2002 appropriations 
request for activities in the Energy Supply account that are 
managed by the Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy 
by $39.2 million. The proposed amendment would bring the FY 
2002 request for the following programs level with their FY 
2001 appropriations: High-Temperature Superconductivity (an 
increase of $17.8 million); Hydrogen research and development 
(an increase of $13.0 million); Hydropower (an increase of $2.5 
million); and the Renewable Energy Production Incentive (an 
increase of $1.9 million). The Biomass/Biofuels program would 
be increased to 95 percent of its FY 2001 appropriated level 
(an increase of $1.5 million), and the International Renewable 
Energy Program will be funded at a level that permits 
continuation of key activities to promote renewable energy 
technologies in developing nations (an increase of $2.5 
million). These programs will enhance the diversity and 
security of America's energy supplies in the coming decades.
    The proposed increase in budget authority would be offset 
by a decrease in the Energy Conservation account proposed in an 
accompanying budget amendment.

FY 2002 Budget Appendix Page: 409
FY 2002 Pending Request: $17,371,000
Proposed Amendment: Language
Revised Request: $17,371,000

    (In the appropriations language under the above heading, 
delete the phrase, ``engineering studies to determine the cost 
of development, the predicted rate and quantity of petroleum 
recovery, the methodology, and the equipment specifications for 
development of Shannon Formation at Naval Petroleum Reserve 3 
(NPR-3), utilizing a below-the-reservoir production method'' 
and, insert the phrase naval petroleum and oil shale reserve 
activities; and delete the phrase, ``the requirements of 10 
U.S.C. 7430(b)(2)(B) shall not apply to fiscal year 2002 and 
any fiscal year thereafter: Provided further, That,'').
    This proposal is necessary to reflect correctly the policy 
proposed in the FY 2002 Budget. Specifically, the budget 
proposes to fund all naval petroleum and oil shale reserve 
activities, and deletes the waiver of authorizing law, which 
was made permanent in P.L. 106-291, the Department of the 
Interior and Related Agencies Appropriations Act, 2001.
    This amendment would not affect the proposed budget totals.
                                ------

FY 2002 Pending Request: $794,981,000
Proposed Amendment: -$39,176,000
Revised Request: $755,805,000

    This amendment would reduce the pending FY 2002 request for 
activities in the transportation sector of the Energy 
Conservation account, specifically in activities in the Office 
of Advanced Automotive Technologies, which support the 
Partnership for a New Generation of Vehicles (PNGV). The 
Secretary of Energy has recently reviewed this program with the 
U.S. auto industry and will be restructuring the program.
    The proposed decrease in budget authority would fully 
offset the proposed increase in the Energy Supply account 
proposed in an accompanying budget amendment.
                                ------

FY 2002 Pending Request: $4,701,993,000
Proposed Amendment: Language
Revised Request: $4,701,993,000

    (In the appropriations language under the above heading, 
delete the paragraph beginning ``Of the amount made available 
under this heading, $80,000,000''; and delete the paragraph 
beginning ``Of the amount made available under this heading, 
$20,000,000''.)
    This proposal would amend the pending appropriations 
language to reflect correctly the policy proposed in the FY 
2002 Budget.
    The budget includes--as an item to be transmitted to the 
Congress at a later date--funding for Community Technology 
Centers and the Improving Access Initiative. Appropriations 
language will be transmitted to the Congress subsequent to 
authorization of these programs.
    This amendment would not affect the proposed budget totals.
                                ------

FY 2002 Budget Appendix Page: 588
FY 2002 Pending Request: $37,055,000
Proposed Amendment: $30,000,000
Revised Request: $67,055,000

    (In the appropriations language under the above heading, 
delete ``$37,055,000'' and substitute $67,055,000; and insert 
immediately following ``2003'', of which $30,000,000 shall be 
for Save America's Treasures for priority preservation projects 
of nationally significant sites, structures, and artifacts: 
Provided, That any individual Save America's Treasurers grant 
shall be matched by non-Federal funds: Provided further, That 
individual projects shall be eligible for one grant, and all 
projects to be funded shall be approved by the Secretary of the 
Interior in consultation with the President's Committee on the 
Arts and Humanities prior to the commitment of grant funds: 
Provided further, That Save America's Treasurers funds 
allocated for Federal projects shall be available by transfer 
to appropriate accounts of individual agencies, after approval 
of such projects by the Secretary of the Interior in 
consultation with the President's Committee on the Arts and 
Humanities: Provided further, That none of the funds provided 
for Save America's Treasures may be used for administrative 
expenses, and staffing for the program shall be available from 
the existing staffing levels in the National Park Service.)
    This amendment requests $30.0 million to continue the Save 
America's Treasures program, which would provide grants to 
Federal, State, and local agencies and non-governmental 
agencies for the preservation of nationally significant 
historic sites, structures, and artifacts.
    The Save America's Treasures program would leverage private 
funding by requiring an equal match of non-Federal funds for 
projects to restore nationally significant historic sites, 
structures, or artifacts. The President's Committee on the Arts 
and Humanities would serve as the advisory council to the 
Secretary of the Interior regarding funding awards. The 
existing partnership with the National Trust for Historic 
Preservation would continue in order to ensure private funding, 
and other partnerships would be encouraged.
    The requested FY 2002 budget authority increase of $30.0 
million would be offset by a corresponding reduction in the FY 
2002 Budget's proposed National Emergency Reserve.
                                ------

FY 2002 Pending Request: $647,997,000

Revised Request: $647,997,000

    (In the appropriations language under the above heading, 
delete ``$32,442,000'' and substitute $31,442,000; and delete 
everything after ``in lieu of `and 2001' ''.)
    This proposal would amend the pending appropriations 
language to reflect correctly the policy proposed in the FY 
2002 Budget. Specifically, the amendment would modify the 
appropriations language to reflect the correct amount proposed 
for transfer from the Water and Related Resources account to 
the Lower Colorado River Basin Development Fund. In addition, 
the proposal would delete two provisions that should have been 
marked for deletion in the language printed in the FY 2002 
Budget Appendix.
    This amendment would not affect the proposed budget totals.
                                ------

Revised Request: $3,505,859,000

    (In the appropriations language under the above heading, 
delete the phrase ``1,244 passenger motor vehicles, of which 
1,080 will be for replacement only'' and insert 1,354 passenger 
motor vehicles, of which 1,190 will be for replacement only.)
    The amendment is necessary to reflect correctly the policy 
proposed in the FY 2002 Budget. Specifically, the amendment 
would modify the appropriation language to accurately reflect 
the proposed number of passenger motor vehicles for police use.
    The amendment would not affect the proposed budget totals.
                                ------

    The amendment is necessary to reflect correctly the policy 
proposed in the FY 2002 Budget. The appropriations language for 
the Office of Juvenile Justice Delinquency Prevention's Safe

                   EXECUTIVE OFFICE OF THE PRESIDENT

    For the Executive Office of the President, $276,113,000, 
including compensation of the President, including an expense 
allowance of $50,000, as authorized by 3 U.S.C. 102; for travel 
expenses of $100,000 as authorized by 3 U.S.C. 103; for 
necessary expenses for the White House as authorized by law; 
for the necessary expenses of the Executive Residence at the 
White House as authorized by 3 U.S.C. 105; including not less 
than $4,210,000 for necessary expenses for the Vice President 
as authorized by 3 U.S.C. 106, and for the official residence 
of the Vice President as authorized by law (including not to 
exceed $90,000 for official entertainment expenses); for the 
necessary expenses of the Office and Councils in the Executive 
Offices of the President (including not to exceed $136,500 for 
official reception and repesentation expenses); and $1,000,000 
for unanticipated needs as authorized by 3 U.S.C. 108; of which 
the following sums shall remain available until expended: 
$8,625,000 for the repair, maintenance, and continued 
preventative maintenance, alternation, and improvement of the 
Executive Residence at the White House; $2,350,000 for the 
Office of National Drug Control Policy (consisting of 
$1,350,000 forpolicy research and evaluation, and $1,000,000 
for the National Alliance for Model State Drug Laws); and $1,000,000 
for the Office of the United States Trade Representative: Provided, 
That $11,775,000 shall be available until September 30, 2003 for a 
capital investment plan which provides for the continued modernization 
of the information technology infrastructure: Provided further, That 
advances or repayments or transfers from this appropriation may be made 
to any department or agency for expenses of carrying out such 
activities.
    This proposal would consolidate 18 accounts of the 
Executive Office of the President (EOP) into a single annual 
appropriation. The proposal is designed to give the President 
maximum flexibility in allocating resources in support of EOP 
to those functional areas where the President places the 
highest priority and requires staff support. In addition, the 
proposal supports a single, integrated, financial management 
system in EOP, consistent with the Chief Financial Officers Act 
of 1990 and P.L. 106-58, the Treasury and General Government 
Appropriations Act of FY 2000. The proposal would also 
consolidate the processes of purchasing, storing, distributing, 
and maintaining common goods and services throughout EOP, thus 
supporting greater economies of scale and efficiencies in 
purchasing.
    Funds for the President and Vice-President are 
distinctively treated, in recognition that they are the two 
constitutional officers included in the account. No authority 
contained in the FY 2001 Budget is omitted from the proposed 
language.
    The appropriation language has also been streamlined. All 
amounts previously included within the individual accounts are 
deleted except those that are necessary to be provided
