A REQUEST FOR FY 2006 SUPPLEMENTAL APPROPRIATIONS FOR ONGOING MILITARY 
  AND INTELLIGENCE OPERATIONS IN SUPPORT OF OPERATION IRAQI FREEDOM, 
OPERATION ENDURING FREEDOM, AND SELECTED OTHER INTERNATIONAL ACTIVITIES




  February 28, 2006.--Referred to the Committee on Appropriations and 
                         ordered to be printed
                                           The White House,
                                     Washington, February 16, 2006.
Hon. J. Dennis Hastert,
Speaker of the House of Representatives,
Washington, DC.
    Dear Mr. Speaker: Today, I am submitting a request for 
Fiscal Year 2006 supplemental appropriations of $72.4 billion 
for ongoing military and intelligence operations in support of 
Operation Iraqi Freedom, Operation Enduring Freedom, and 
selected other international activities. These funds support 
U.S. Armed Forces and Coalition partners as we advance 
democracy, fight the terrorists and insurgents, and train and 
equip Iraqi security forces so that they can defend their 
sovereignty and freedom. Already more than 35 Iraqi battalions 
have assumed control of their own areas of responsibility. This 
request provides the resources necessary to continue that 
effort so the Coalition can continue to hand over control of 
more territory to Iraqi forces.
    In Afghanistan, our Armed Forces continue to track down 
terrorists, help the Afghan people rebuild their country, and 
train and equip Afghan security forces so that Afghanistan may 
continue to take control of its democratic future. Our 
coalition has trained many thousands of Afghan soldiers and 
police. These forces are risking their lives to fight our 
common enemy. This request provides the resources necessary to 
continue the train and equip effort so Afghan forces can 
eventually provide for the security of their own citizens.
    The request includes funds to confront the threat from 
Improvised Explosive Devices and to improve the protection of 
our forces. In addition, the request addresses the need for 
substantial investment to repair or replace equipment worn out 
or lost in military operations. It also provides additional 
funding to cover the costs of restructuring the Army and Marine 
Corps into more agile, self-sustaining units that provide 
increased combat effectiveness critical to winning the Global 
War on Terror.
    The request includes bonuses and incentive pay to properly 
compensate American troops for the sacrifices they make in 
defense of freedom. It also includes funds to cover enhanced 
benefits for survivors of all military members and provides for 
newly-authorized benefits for those injured in combat.
    The request also provides funds for the extraordinary 
security and operating costs associated with supporting U.S. 
diplomatic activity in Iraq and Afghanistan.
    The request includes funds to help create political and 
economic stability in post-conflict areas, help Iraqis protect 
and sustain their infrastructure, and build Iraqi capacity at 
the national and provincial levels for better, more responsive, 
and transparent governance. The request also supports the 
successful Commander's Emergency Response program that enables 
military commanders to respond to urgent, small-scale, 
humanitarian relief and reconstruction needs in their area of 
responsibility. These counter-insurgency and stabilization 
activities help build civilian capabilities to ensure the 
transition to greater Iraqi self-reliance. Coupling increased 
civilian capacity with increased military capacity is essential 
to sustained progress in all realms--security, political, and 
economic--and is essential to neutralizing the insurgents and 
defeating the terrorists.
    Finally, the supplemental requests funds for urgent, 
unanticipated needs to help relieve human suffering associated 
with a number of humanitarian crises, including Sudan and other 
parts of Africa, assistance for refugees, and the costs of 
humanitarian relief and reconstruction efforts in response to 
the devastating earthquake in Pakistan. The request also 
includes funding to address urgent democracy-promotion 
activities in Iran.
    I hereby designate the specific proposals in the amounts 
requested herein as emergency requirements. This request 
reflects urgent and essential requirements. I ask the Congress 
to appropriate the funds as requested and promptly send the 
bill to me for signature. The details of the request are set 
forth in the enclosed letter from the Director of the Office of 
Management and Budget.
    Sincerely,
                                                    George W. Bush.
    Enclosure.
                [Estimate No. 3, 109th Cong., 2d Sess.]

                 Executive Office of the President,
                           Office of Management and Budget,
                                 Washington, DC, February 16, 2006.
The President,
The White House.
    Submitted for your consideration is a request for FY 2006 
supplemental appropriations totaling $72.4 billion to fund 
ongoing military, diplomatic, and intelligence operations in 
the Global War on Terror; stabilization and counter-insurgency 
activities in Iraq and Afghanistan; and other humanitarian 
assistance. This request supports our Strategy for Victory in 
Iraq and efforts to support democracy in Afghanistan. This 
request is in addition to the $50 billion already appropriated 
for FY 2006 Global War on Terror costs.
    A total of $65.3 billion of the new supplemental request is 
for the Department of Defense (DOD); $2.9 billion is for 
Intelligence Community management and classified programs in 
support of the Global War on Terror; $4.2 billion is for 
international functions, including the Department of State; and 
$16 million is for other agencies, including the Departments of 
Justice and the Treasury for counter-terrorism efforts and 
assistance to the new Iraqi government. The major categories of 
funding are highlighted below.
Military and Intelligence Operations
     This request includes over $38 billion to fund 
combat operations in support of Operation Iraqi Freedom and 
Operation Enduring Freedom during FY 2006. The two key elements 
in this category are pay and operational costs--such as food, 
water, spare parts, transportation, and logistics support.
     Funding is also requested for a range of other 
items including: medical benefits and welfare/morale programs 
for the military; higher fuel costs; new military construction 
in theater; and intelligence activities supporting the Global 
War on Terror.
     The request includes $2.9 billion for a wide range 
of classified activities in support of the Global War on 
Terror. These activities include support to military 
operations, intelligence collection and analysis, and overseas 
law enforcement efforts. Also included are funds to enhance the 
capabilities of the Office of the Director of National 
Intelligence and to sustain National Counterterrorism Center 
operations.
Equipment and Force Structure Changes
     The request includes $8.3 billion to refurbish or 
replace equipment that is worn out or damaged from operating in 
harsh conditions in Iraq and Afghanistan, $2.0 billion to 
confront the evolving threat from Improvised Explosive Devices, 
and $2.6 billion to improve the protection of our forces by 
adding armor to all convoy trucks, and buying armored security 
vehicles, night vision equipment, and helicopter survivability 
systems.
     The request also seeks $3.4 billion to continue 
investment in Army Modularity, a multi-year plan to restructure 
the Army's forces by creating new, more flexible and self-
sufficient brigade-sized units. This marks the last year 
supplemental funds will be requested for this plan. Funds are 
requested as part of the base budget in FY 2007 and beyond. 
Supplemental funds are necessary now to support the accelerated 
creation of new modular combat brigades, which will reduce 
deployment frequency and stress on soldiers and their families. 
When completed, Modularity will also increase the number of 
active Army combat brigades by 30 percent and reorganize the 
remainder of active, guard, and reserve combat and support 
forces. An additional $0.2 billion is requested for the Marine 
Corps and other services to continue implementing 
organizational changes that increase combat effectiveness and 
reduce the frequency of deployments for specialized units.
Iraq and Afghanistan Security Forces and Coalition Partners Support
     The request continues support for a robust effort 
to build Iraqi and Afghan security forces through the Iraq 
Security Forces Fund ($3.7 billion) and the Afghan Security 
Forces Fund ($2.2 billion). This funding is key to our Strategy 
for Victory in Iraq, turning over control of more territory to 
Iraqi forces, and ensuring democracy in Afghanistan.
     The proposal also includes $2.0 billion for our 
Coalition partners' activities in direct support of our 
military operations, including Pakistan's counter-terrorist 
operations along its border with Afghanistan and the Polish 
forces' efforts in Iraq.
     The request includes $423 million in additional 
funds to continue the Commander's Emergency Response Program, 
the successful program that enables U.S. military commanders to 
respond to urgent, small-scale humanitarian relief and 
reconstruction needs in their area of responsibility. This 
program is important to the success of the counter-insurgency 
effort in both Iraq and Afghanistan.
International Affairs and Stabilization Activities
     The request seeks $4.2 billion for international 
affairs programs as follows.
          --$1.7 billion for extraordinary wartime costs for 
        the State Department embassy and the United States 
        Agency for International Development operations and 
        their security in Iraq and Afghanistan;
          --$1.6 billion to help create political and economic 
        stability in post-conflict areas, help Iraqis protect 
        and sustain their infrastructure, and build Iraqi 
        capacity at the national and provincial levels for 
        better, more responsive and transparent governance. 
        Coupling increased civilian capacity with increased 
        military capacity is essential to sustained progress in 
        all realms--security, political, and economic--and is 
        essential to neutralizing the insurgents and defeating 
        the insurgents.
          --$514 million for urgent humanitarian relief and 
        peacekeeping funding for Darfur and Southern Sudan, 
        including funding for the African Union mission in 
        Darfur.
          --$149 million for refugees and emergency food aid to 
        respond to crises, primarily in Africa.
          --$126 million for the U.S. response to the 
        devastating earthquake in Pakistan.
          --$46 million for a limited number of unanticipated 
        costs to support our reconstruction commitment to 
        Afghanistan, including debt forgiveness and emergency 
        electric power needs.
          --$75 million for democracy promotion activities for 
        Iran.

Recommendation
    This request fulfills known and urgent requirements that 
cannot reasonably be met through the use of existing agency 
funds. I recommend that you designate the specific proposals 
contained in this transmittal as emergency requirements.
    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 
you transmit the proposals to the Congress.

Legislative Branch
    This request also contains $41.2 million in emergency 
supplemental requirements for the U.S. House of Representatives 
and the Architect of the Capitol for security purposes. As a 
matter of comity, appropriations requests of the Legislative 
Branch are commonly transmitted without change.
            Sincerely,
                                          Joshua B. Bolten,
                                                          Director.

defined in section 502 of the Congressional Budget Act of 1974,

such amounts for the costs of modifying direct loans and 
guarantees shall not be considered ``assistance'' for the 
purposes of any provision of law limiting assistance to a 
country: Provided further, That the last proviso under the 
heading ``Economic Support Fund'' in title II of Public Law 
109-102 and comparable provisions in prior year acts making 
appropriations for foreign operations, export financing and 
related programs shall no longer be applicable to funds 
appropriated under such heading in such Act or such prior years

    The request includes funds for important programs in Iraq 
and Afghanistan, relief and initial reconstruction activities 
in response to the Pakistan earthquake, and democracy promotion 
activities for Iran.

Iraq

    The request provides $1.489 billion for emergency programs 
that will help create political and economic stability in post-
conflict areas, help Iraqis protect and sustain their 
infrastructure, and build Iraqi capacity at the national and 
provincial levels for better, more responsive and transparent 
governance. Coupling increased civilian capacity with increased 
military capacity is essential to sustained progress in all 
realms--security, political, and economic--and is essential to 
neutralizing the insurgents and defeating the insurgents. This 
request would provide:
     $675 million in program funds to assist provincial 
and local governments develop a transparent and sustainable 
capacity to self-govern, enhance security, create jobs, promote 
political and economic development, and facilitate the 
implementation of the new Iraqi constitution. At least eight 
Provincial Reconstruction Teams throughout Iraq will help 
manage and implement these programs;
     $287 million to harden and secure key nodes of the 
oil, electricity, and water infrastructure that have come under 
terrorist attacks;
     $355 million to operate, maintain, and sustain 
U.S.-funded infrastructure projects;
     $125 million to help Iraqi ministries, 
particularly the Ministry of Finance and Central bank, become 
more self-reliant, increase their core functions capacity, 
improve transparency and accountability, and enhance public 
administration training;
     $37 million to support the Department of Justice-
led Iraq Regime Crimes Liaison Office (RCLO) operating in Iraq 
to assist and advise the Iraqi Special Tribunal (IST), the 
Iraqi court charged with investigating and trying members of 
the former regime for war crimes, crimes against humanity, and 
genocide; and
     $10 million to promote democracy activities as 
Iraqis transition to its first democratically-elected 
government. Funds will be used to assist parliamentary capacity 
building; train and support the development of political 
parties and civil society groups, and free trade unions; anti-
corruption efforts; and an open media.

Afghanistan

    This request also provides $43 million for unanticipated 
requirements in Afghanistan, including:
     $11 million for the subsidy cost of 100 percent 
debt reduction for Afghanistan. The Administration, along with 
Afghanistan's other primary creditors, is now ready to pursue 
debt forgiveness for the government of Afghanistan as announced 
in February 2006.
     $32 million for power sector projects, including 
aid for the replacement of crucial emergency generating 
equipment, and critical early stage components of the Northeast 
Transmission Project, a $500 million effort, which is funded 
primarily by other bilateral and multilateral donors. This 
system will supply electricity to the northern cities and 
Kabul, and will drastically reduce the need for emergency 
diesel fuel imports in Afghanistan.

Pakistan

    This request also includes $40.5 million to reimburse the 
account and fund ongoing reconstruction in Pakistan in response 
to last year's devastating earthquake. Activities include 
rebuilding the physical primary healthcare infrastructure in 
affected districts, as well as assistance to strengthen the 
capacities of district basic education and healthcare systems, 
with the goals of rebuilding the lost workforce and 
strengthening local involvement in the large scale physical 
reconstruction.

Iran

    This request includes $65 million to address urgent 
democracy concerns in Iran by providing:
     $50 million for broadcasting, including expanding 
Farsi television transmission; satellite broadcasts; expand/

broadcasts. These funds may also, if necessary, be transferred 
to ``International Broadcasting Operations'' for use by the 
Broadcasting Board of Governors.
     $15 million to expand democracy programs.
    The provisions under the heading ``Democracy Fund'' in the 
Foreign Operations, Export Financing and Related Programs Act, 
FY 2006 apply to the additional amount requested for Iran 
democracy programs under this heading.

                        PEACEKEEPING OPERATIONS

    For an additional amount for ``Peacekeeping Operations,'' 
$123,000,000, to remain available until September 30, 2007: 
Provided, That such sums as may be necessary may be transferred 
to and merged with ``Contributions for International 
Peacekeeping Activities,'' for peacekeeping operations in 
Sudan.
    The request would provide an additional $123 million for 
the Department of State's Peacekeeping Operations account for 
support of the African Union Mission in Sudan (AMIS) and for 
support of United Nations peacekeeping efforts in Sudan through 
transfer to the Contributions to International Peacekeeping 
Activities (CIPA) account.
    The request fully supports the African Union's (AU) work in 
Darfur, Sudan. It will help to ensure that the AU has the 
resources necessary to provide for continued humanitarian 
access, as well as to protect civilians. In the period prior to 
enactment of this supplemental request, the Administration will 
continue to support the AMIS mission by deferring some 
activities in other peacekeeping operations programs including 
the Global Peacekeeping Operations Initiative, which is the 
Administration's effort to strengthen worldwide peacekeeping 
capacity. Once supplemental resources are provided, funding 
will be restored to this complementary, high priority program.
    The request also fully supports the U.S. initiative to 
transition from the AMIS force to a United Nations effort by 
enabling a funding transfer to the CIPA account. On January 12, 
2006, the AU Peace and Security Council agreed in principle to 
seek a transition from the AMIS force to a UN operation within 
the framework of partnership between the AU, the UN, and their 
respective members. The United Nations Security Council has 
begun to consider transitioning from the AU force in Darfur to 
a UN force. Funding within the Peacekeeping Operations account 
with potential transfer to the CIPA account to fund subsequent 
UN assessments would preserve flexibility, given the range of 
options and scenarios that will be addressed by the Security 
Council. The Administration anticipates a robust Chapter 7 
mandate for a UN mission in Darfur that would charge the UN 
mission with monitoring ceasefire agreements, protecting 
civilians, protecting the humanitarian response, and monitoring 
compliance with previous Security Council resolutions.

Iraq's financial systems between the local and national 
governments in a manner consistent with the new Iraqi 
constitution and elections. Funding will purchase equipment and

in the earthquake zone, and $6.5 million is launching income 
generation work and earthquake-resistant building technology 
for the affected zones.

Treasury Attache in Iraq. Treasury has only one attache in Iraq 
and the Deputy Attache will provide critical support to the 
Administration's fiscal, monetary, and financial sector reform 
efforts.

                       OTHER INDEPENDENT AGENCIES


               INTELLIGENCE COMMUNITY MANAGEMENT ACCOUNT

    For an additional amount for the ``Intelligence Community 
Management Account,'' $178,875,000.
    This request would provide $178.9 million in additional 
funds to accelerate the stand-up of the Office of the Director 
of National Intelligence (ODNI), sustain National 
Counterterrorism Center (NCTC) Operations, continue 
implementation of the recommendations of the Silberman-Robb 
Commission on U.S. Intelligence Capabilities Relating to 
Weapons of Mass Destruction (WMD Commission), and rapidly 
deploy a global capability to warn against an outbreak of avian 
influenza.
    These funds would provide the remaining funding associated 
with moving the ODNI to its temporary headquarters at Bolling 
Air Force Base, hiring additional personnel, meeting increased 
security clearance and administrative requirements, 
establishing an intelligence Lessons Learned Center, and 
implementing other elements of the WMD Commission 
recommendations and the Intelligence Reform and Terrorism 
Prevention Act. The funds would also sustain various NCTC 
operations related to the Global War on Terrorism, such as 
operational planning and analytic outreach.

                           GENERAL PROVISIONS


Transfer Authority for funds within the Supplemental

    Sec.  . Upon his determination that such action is 
necessary in the national interest, the Secretary of Defense 
may transfer between appropriations up to $4,000,000,000 of the 
funds made available to the Department of Defense in this Act: 
Provided, That the Secretary shall notify the Congress promptly 
of each transfer made pursuant to this authority: Provided 
further, That the transfer authority provided in this section 
is in addition to any other transfer authority available to the 
Department of Defense: Provided further, That the authority in 
this section is subject to the same terms and conditions as the 
authority provided in section 8005 of the Department of 
Defense, Appropriations Act, 2006, except for the fourth 
proviso.
    This provision would provide the Department of Defense 
(DOD) with needed flexibility by allowing up to $4 billion of 
the funds appropriated in this act to be transferred between 
accounts. The Secretary of Defense will notify the Congress 
promptly of all such transfers, and this transfer authority 
will be in addition to any other transfer authority provided to 
DOD.

Additional Transfer Authority for funds within the DOD Appropriations

    Sec.  . Section 8005 of the Department of Defense 
Appropriations Act, 2006, (Public Law 109-148; 119 Stat. 2680), 
is amended by striking ``$3,750,000,000'' and inserting 
``$5,000,000,000''.
    This provision would provide DOD with needed flexibility by 
allowing up to $5 billion of the funds appropriated to DOD to 
be transferred between accounts. The additional authority would 
give the Secretary the necessary flexibility to accommodate 
changing circumstances as we prosecute the War on Terror. DOD 
must have the ability to respond to urgent requirements in 
support of deployed forces, such as force protection 
requirements, in a timely manner.

Defense Cooperation Account

    Sec.  . During fiscal year 2006 and from funds in the 
Defense Cooperation Account, the Secretary of Defense may 
transfer not to exceed $5,800,000 to such appropriations or 
funds of the Department of Defense as he shall determine for 
use consistent with the purposes for which such funds were 
contributed and accepted: Provided, That such amounts shall be 
available for the same time period as the appropriation to 
which transferred. (10 U.S.C. 2608).
    10 U.S.C. 2608 provides DOD the authority to collect 
contributions from individuals, countries and international 
organizations. These contributions are deposited into the 
Defense Cooperation Account, but may be obligated or expended 
only to the extent and in the manner provided in subsequent 
appropriations Acts. This proposal would provide the necessary 
appropriation for the current balance of the account, $5.8 
million, to be spent in support of the Global War on Terrorism.

United States Contribution to NATO Common-Funded Budgets in FY 2006

    Sec.  . Section 1005(c)(2) of the National Defense 
Authorization Act, FY 2006 (P.L. 109-163) is amended by 
striking ``$289,447,000'' and inserting ``$345,547,000''.
    The FY 2006 National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) 
authorized the Department of Defense to make a contribution of 
$289.4 million to the NATO Military Budget in 2006. On February 
7, 2006, the 26 NATO members agreed on cost figures to cover 
the full expansion of the International Security Assistance 
Force (ISAF), a United Nations-mandated mission in Afghanistan 
that exists to create a stable and secure environment in Kabul 
and its vicinity. The Military Budget costs for the expanded 
ISAF mission are estimated at an annual cost of 205 million 
Euros, of which the United States cost share of 22.5428 percent 
is 47 million Euros, or $56.1 million (at $1 = =0.8378). In 
order to meet these revised cost obligations, the current 
authorization cap as specified in the NDAA must be raised.
    The expansion of ISAF will enable NATO to take on 
additional responsibilities in Afghanistan, including taking 
over operations in southern Afghanistan from the U.S.-led 
coalition. The expansion will also allow the United States to 
re-deploy approximately 3,000 soldiers currently stationed in 
Afghanistan. The increase in the NATO Military Budget will 
cover costs associated with management of the port of 
debarkation, support to medical facilities (role 2 and 3), 
support to communication systems, support to headquarters 
activities, fuel storage, travel, transportation, and supplies.

Drug Interdiction and Counter-Drug Activities, Defense

    Sec.  . (a) Authority To Provide Support.--Of the amount 
appropriated by this Act under the heading, ``Drug Interdiction 
and Counter-Drug Activities, Defense'', not to exceed 
$40,000,000 may be made available for support for counter-drug 
activities of the Governments of Afghanistan, Pakistan, 
Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, and Uzbekistan: Provided, That such 
support shall be in addition to support provided for the 
counter-drug activities of such Governments under any other 
provision of the law.
    (b) Types of Support.--(1) Except as specified in 
subsections (b)(2) and (b)(3) of this section, the support that 
may be provided under the authority in this section shall be 
limited to the types of support specified in section 1033(c)(1) 
of the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 1998 
(P.L. 105-85, as amended by P.L. 106-398 and P.L. 108-136), and 
conditions on the provision of support as contained in section 
1033 shall apply for fiscal year 2006.
    (2) The Secretary of Defense may transfer vehicles, 
aircraft, and detection, interception, monitoring and testing 
equipment to said Governments for counter-drug activities.
    (3) For the Government of Afghanistan, the Secretary of 
Defense may also provide individual and crew-served weapons, 
and ammunition for counter-drug security forces.
    This section would enable the DOD to increase its 
assistance to the counter-narcotics forces of the governments 
of Afghanistan and neighboring friendly countries. Improving 
their counter-drug capabilities will allow the U.S. and its 
regional partners to more effectively stem the tide of drug 
trafficking in the region. Curtailing the drug trade will help 
to dry up one source of funding for terrorist elements in the 
region.

Emergency and Extraordinary Expenses (EEE) Authority

    Sec.   . Under the heading, ``Operation and Maintenance, 
Defense-Wide,'' in title II of the Department of Defense 
Appropriations Act, 2006 (Public Law 109-148), strike 
``$36,000,000'' and insert ``$56,000,000''.
    This section would provide the Secretary of Defense with 
additional authority for extraordinary and emergency expenses, 
which cannot be anticipated, in order to support emergent 
requirements associated with Iraq and the War on Terror.

Increase in Advance Billing Limitation

    Sec.   . Notwithstanding 10 U.S.C. 2208(l), the total 
amount of advance billings rendered or imposed for all working 
capital funds of the Department of Defense in fiscal year 2006 
shall not exceed $2,000,000,000.
    This provision would increase the limitation on advance 
billing of working capital fund customers from $1 billion to $2 
billion in FY 2006. Advance billing is a temporary management 
action to avoid insolvency in the working capital funds. The 
limitation was imposed in FY 1999 and the business base of the 
funds has changed significantly since then. To avoid Anti-
Deficiency Act violations, agencies may be forced to delay 
reordering sufficient supplies to maintain inventory levels 
needed for the war effort. To prevent that, an increase in the 
advance billing limitation to $2 billion is requested.
    Working Capital Funds are designed to be flexible and 
responsive to customer demands within a business-like 
structure. The Funds have surged in response to the Global War 
on Terror and, in total, are operating at levels 27 percent 
greater than their peacetime business base. In dollar terms, 
the Defense Working Capital Funds are operating $24 billion 
above their $89 billion peacetime base. For certain of the 
funds, business has grown 70 to 90 percent above the peacetime 
level. These funds have been priced for their expected wartime 
workload for the last three budgets and no longer accumulate 
cash based on the difference between peacetime and wartime 
workload. Current and projected cash balances are below 
Department minimum targeted levels because of rate reductions, 
cash transfers, and congressional reductions. These low 
balances increase the risk of fund insolvency. The requirement 
to provide logistics support during war and the financial 
volatility involved in a large and uncertain growth in business 
dictate a larger advance billing limitation for financial 
flexibility in managing these funds.

Commander's Emergency Response Program

    Sec.   . In addition to amounts authorized in section 
1202(a) of Public Law 109-163, from funds made available in 
this Act to the Department of Defense, not to exceed 
$423,000,000 may be used to fund the Commander's Emergency 
Response Program and for a similar program to assist the people 
of Afghanistan, to remain available until December 31, 2007.
    Commander's Emergency Response Program (CERP) enhances the 
capability of the military commanders to combat terrorism and 
to support U.S. military operations in Iraq and Afghanistan. 
The program provides results that people can see. Examples of 
projects include water and sanitation, electricity, and health 
care.
    The CERP was first provided appropriated funds and included 
Afghanistan under section 1110 of P.L. 108-106.
    The CERP has proven to be a high-impact program 
indispensable to security and stabilization efforts in Iraq and 
Afghanistan. Providing a source of cash, it enables military 
commanders--who are often the only U.S. government officials in 
daily contact with communities about local needs--to respond 
immediately to small-scale but urgent humanitarian relief and 
reconstruction requirements. The program builds trust and 
support at the grassroots level.

Authority to Continue Charging Supervision and Administrative Costs to 
        the Iraq Security Forces Fund and Afghan Security Forces Fund

    Sec.   . Supervision and administration costs associated 
with a construction project funded with Afghan Security Forces 
Fund or Iraq Security Forces Fund appropriations may be 
obligated at the time a construction contract is awarded: 
Provided, That for the purpose of this section, supervision and 
administration costs include all in-house Government costs.
    This provision would allow DoD to use Afghan Security 
Forces Funds (ASFF) and Iraq Security Forces Funds (ISFF) for 
supervision and administration costs of construction projects 
which will be completed after FY 2006. To complete ASFF and 
ISFF projects in an efficient and effective manner, the 
continued oversight of the Project Contracting Office is 
required to close-out ASFF and ISFF projects.

Military Construction Authorization

    Sec.   . The military construction project at Augusta, 
Georgia, authorized in section 2401 Public Law 109-163, is 
hereby authorized in the amount of $340,854,000. This project 
may be incrementally funded. Funds appropriated in Public Law 
109-114 for this project shall be available to fund the first 
increment.
    This provision increases the total authorized spending 
amount to complete construction of the National Security 
Agency's Regional Security Operation Center replacement 
facilities in Augusta, Georgia. Section 2401 of the National 
Defense Authorization Act for FY 2006 (P.L. 109-163) authorized 
$61,466,000 for replacement facilities construction. In 
addition, the provision clarifies that the amount appropriated 
for construction of the facilities in P.L. 109-114, estimated 
at $48,476,000 after rescission, is available to fund the first 
increment of the project.
    Sec.   . The military construction project at Kunia, 
Hawaii, previously authorized in section 2401 of Public Law 
109-163, is hereby authorized in the amount of $350,490,000. 
The project may be incrementally funded. Funds appropriated in 
Public Laws 108-7, 108-87, and 109-114 for this project shall 
be available to fund the first increment.
    This provision increases the total authorized spending 
amount to complete construction of the National Security 
Agency's Kunia Regional Security Operations Center replacement 
facilities in Hawaii. Section 2401 of the National Defense 
Authorization Act for FY 2006 (P.L. 109-163) authorized 
$305,000,000 in spending for the project. In addition, the 
provision clarifies that the amounts appropriated for 
construction of the facilities in Public Laws 108-7, 108-87, 
and 109-114, a total estimated at $147,126,000 after 
rescissions, is available to fund the first increment of the 
project.

Authority to Provide Assistance to Sudan

    Sec.   . Funds made available in this Act for foreign 
assistance may be provided for Sudan, notwithstanding any other 
provision of law.
    This authority would permit assistance, particularly under 
the headings ``Economic Support Fund'' and ``Peacekeeping 
Operations'' under this Act, to be provided for Sudan without 
regard to the multiple, cross-cutting and often redundant 
restrictions on assistance to that country. Sudan is subject to 
numerous restrictions on foreign assistance. For example, the 
restrictions relate to Sudan's presence on the state-sponsored 
terrorism list, Section 508 of the annual Foreign Operations 
Appropriations Act with respect to military coups, and Sudan's 
arrears on its bilateral debt with the United States.

Iraq Relief and Reconstruction Fund

    Sec.   . Title II of Public Law 108-106, as amended by 
Public Law 108-309, is further amended under the heading ``Iraq 
Relief and Reconstruction Fund'' by--
          (A) (1) striking ``$5,090,000,000'' and inserting 
        ``$5,036,000,000'' for security and law enforcement;
          (2) striking ``$1,960,000,000'' and inserting 
        ``$2,349,800,000'' for justice, public safety 
        infrastructure, and civil society;
          (3) striking ``$4,455,000,000'' and inserting 
        ``$4,220,000,000'' for the electric sector;
          (4) striking ``$1,723,000,000'' and inserting 
        ``$1,735,600,000'' for oil infrastructure;
          (5) striking ``$2,361,000,000'' and inserting 
        ``$2,131,100,000'' for water resources and sanitation;
          (6) striking ``$500,000,000'' and inserting 
        ``$465,500,000'' for transportation and 
        telecommunications;
          (7) striking ``$370,000,000'' and inserting 
        ``$333,700,000'' for roads, bridges, and construction;
          (8) striking ``$793,000,000'' and inserting 
        ``$739,000,000'' for health care;
          (9) striking ``$845,000,000'' and inserting 
        ``$805,300,000'' for private sector development; and
          (10) striking ``$342,000,000'' and inserting 
        ``$410,000,000'' for education, refugees, human rights, 
        and governance.
          (B) inserting before the period the following: ``: 
        Provided further, That amounts provided under this 
        heading shall remain available for an additional 4 
        years from the date on which the availability of such 
        funds would otherwise have expired, if such funds are 
        initially obligated before the expiration of the period 
        of availability provided herein, except that after such 
        initial obligation any subsequent obligation may be 
        made without regard to the sectoral limitations set 
        forth under this heading, as amended''.
    This provision would adjust the current sectoral 
limitations under the heading ``Iraq Relief and Reconstruction 
Fund'' (IRRF) to correspond to the existing allocations and 
allow the Administration to provide assistance in accordance 
with anticipated needs. It would also authorize funds obligated 
during their initial period of availability to remain available 
for obligation for another 4 years during which subsequent 
period they could be deobligated and reobligated without regard 
to the sectoral limitations initially applicable to them.
    Sec.   . To the extent not otherwise authorized, 
supervision and administrative costs of the Department of 
Defense associated with a construction project funded with the 
Iraq Relief and Reconstruction Fund may be obligated at the 
time a construction contract is awarded or, for pre-existing 
contracts, by September 30, 2006: Provided, That for the 
purposes of this section, supervision and administration costs 
include all in-house Government costs.
    This section would overcome any concern that requirements 
and practice applicable to defense appropriations may somehow 
be deemed to apply to prevent the obligation of the entire 
costs associated with implementing a project, including 
administrative and supervision costs, at the time the projects 
costs are obligated before expiry of the period of 
availability; it has been limited to address Defense agency 
concerns so as to avoid any implication that such constraints 
apply generally to foreign assistance funds such as IRRF which 
are appropriated to carry out the purposes of the Foreign 
Assistance Act and to which such constraints do not apply 
either as a matter of law or practice.

Waiver of Authorization Requirements

    Sec.   . Funds appropriated or made available by transfer 
in this Act may be obligated and expended notwithstanding 
section 15 of the State Department Basic Authorities Act of 
1956, section 10 of Public Law 91-672 (22 U.S.C. 2412), section 
504(a)(1) of the National Security Act of 1947 (50 U.S.C. 
414(a)(1)) and section 313 of the Foreign Relations 
Authorization Act, Fiscal Years 1994 and 1995 (Public Law 103-
236).
    The waiver of authorization requirements is included 
because there is no foreign relations authorization act for FY 
2006. Section 504 of the National Security Act of 1947 requires 
that Congress specifically authorize agencies to spend funds 
appropriated for intelligence activities. This provision 
provides that authorization for the supplemental funds 
appropriated in this Act.

Emergency Designation

    Sec.   . The amounts made available in this Act are 
designated by the Congress as emergency requirements for the 
specific purposes provided herein.

                           LEGISLATIVE BRANCH


                        House of Representatives


                         SALARIES AND EXPENSES

    For an additional amount for ``Salaries and Expenses,'' of 
the House of Representatives, $36,200,000, to remain available 
until expended: Provided, That the amount provided under this 
heading is designated as an emergency requirement pursuant to 
section 402 of H. Con. Res. 95 (109th Congress), the concurrent 
resolution on the budget for fiscal year 2006.
    This request would provide $36.2 million to fund items 
necessary to ensure the continuing operations and security of 
the U.S. House of Representatives.
    This proposal would increase FY 2006 outlays by $18.1 
million.

                           LEGISLATIVE BRANCH


                        Architect of the Capitol


                         GENERAL ADMINISTRATION

    For an additional amount for ``General Administration,'' 
$5,000,000, to remain available until September 30, 2011: 
Provided, That the amount provided under this heading is 
designated as an emergency requirement pursuant to section 402 
of H. Con. Res. 95 (109th Congress), the concurrent resolution 
on the budget for fiscal year 2006.
    This request would provide $5 million to purchase 
additional property of approximately 15 acres adjacent to the 
Alternate Computer Facility (ACF). The acquisition of 
additional land has been deemed by the Capitol Police Board as 
integral to the security of the ACF operations.
    This proposal would increase FY 2006 outlays by $4.5 
million.
