pursuant to section 11 of the Mine Improvement and New 
Emergency Response (MINER) Act (Public Law 109-236), to require 
that in any coal mine, regardless of the date on which it was

Secretary. Further, a mine ventilation plan incorporating the 
use of air coursed through belt haulage entries to ventilate 
active working places shall not be approved until the Assistant 
Secretary has reviewed the elements of the plan related to the

services as defined in OMB Circular A-133. Where States are 
recipients of such funds, States may establish a lower limit 
for salaries and bonuses of those receiving salaries and 
bonuses from subrecipients of such funds, taking into account 
factors including the relative cost-of-living in the State, the 
compensation levels for comparable State or local government 
employees, and the size of the organizations that administer

Administration programs.

                to individuals affected by that tornado.

    \1\ This Explanatory Statement was submitted for printing in the 
Congressional Record on December 17, 2007, prior to House consideration 
of the Consolidated Appropriations amendment and as directed by the 
House of Representatives in section 3 of H. Res. 869. The Statement 
appears in books II and III of the December 17 Congressional Record, 
with the division G portion beginning on page H16178 of book II.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
    The amendment discussed in the Explanatory Statement was 
agreed to without change by both the House of Representatives 
and the Senate. Therefore, the ``amended bill'' referred to in 
the Statement is the same as the legislation that has been 
signed into law.
    Section 4 of the Consolidated Appropriations Act provides 
that this Explanatory Statement ``shall have the same effect 
with respect to the allocation of funds and implementation of 
divisions A through K of this Act as if it were a joint 
explanatory statement of a committee of conference''.]

                   Explanatory Statement, Division G

   DIVISION G--LABOR, HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES, AND EDUCATION, AND 
                 RELATED AGENCIES APPROPRIATIONS, 2008

    Following is an explanation of the effects of this division 
of the House amendment to the Senate amendment to H.R. 2764 
(hereafter referred to as ``the amended bill'') relative to the 
versions of the Departments of Labor, Health and Human 
Services, and Education, and Related Agencies Appropriations 
Act, 2008 (H.R. 3043 and S. 1710) passed by the House of 
Representatives and the Senate.
    Funds for the individual programs and activities within the 
accounts in this Act are displayed in the detailed table at the 
end of the explanatory statement for this Act. Funding levels 
that are not displayed in the detailed table are identified in 
this explanatory statement.
    Funding levels specified in the explanatory statement do 
not reflect the across-the-board reduction that applies to each 
program, project or activity excluding the Pell Grant Program, 
pursuant to section 528. The detailed table at the end of this 
explanatory statement displays estimates of how this across-
the-board reduction will be applied to major programs, 
projects, and activities in this Act. The Appropriations 
Committees expect that this across-the-board reduction also 
will be applied to amounts identified in this statement.
    In implementing this Act, the Departments and agencies 
should be guided by the language and instructions set forth in 
House Report 110-231 and Senate Report 110-107 accompanying the 
bills, H.R. 3043 and S. 1710.
    In the cases where the language and instructions in either 
report specifically address the allocation of funds, each has 
been reviewed and those that are jointly concurred in by the 
Appropriations Committees have been endorsed in this 
explanatory statement and the detailed table at the end of the 
explanatory statement for this Act.
    In the cases in which the House or the Senate reports 
direct the submission of a report, such report is to be 
submitted to both Appropriations Committees.
    Section 516 sets forth the reprogramming requirements and 
limitations for the Departments and agencies funded through 
this Act, including the requirement to make a written request 
to the Appropriations Committees 15 days prior to 
reprogramming, or to the announcement of intent to reprogram, 
funds in excess of 10 percent, or $500,000, whichever is less, 
between programs, projects and activities.
    Finally, Departments and agencies funded in this division 
shall submit statements on the effect of this Act to the 
Appropriations Committees within 45 days of enactment of this 
Act, pursuant to section 518. The Appropriations Committees 
expect that these statements will provide sufficient detail to 
show the allocation of funds among programs, projects and 
activities, particularly in accounts where the final 
appropriation is different than that of the budget request. 
Further, these statements shall also include the effect of the 
appropriation on any new activities or major initiatives 
discussed in the budget justifications accompanying the fiscal 
year 2008 budget.

                    Reducing the Need for Abortions

     The amended bill includes over $200 million over the 
fiscal year 2007 funding level for several programs and new 
initiatives in the House bill that are intended to help reduce 
the number of abortions in America by alleviating the economic 
pressures and other real life conditions that can sometimes 
cause women to decide not to carry their pregnancies to term. 
Increases are provided for Community Health Centers, Family 
Planning, and the Community Services Block Grant. New 
approaches include a young parents training initiative in the 
Department of Labor, first time motherhood grants under the 
Health Resources and Services Administration, a teen pregnancy 
prevention demonstration within the Centers for Disease Control 
and Prevention, and a home visitation initiative within the 
Administration for Children and Families.
     The Departments of Labor, Health and Human Services, and 
Education, and Related Agencies Appropriations Act, 2008, put 
in place by the amended bill, incorporates the following 
agreements of the Appropriations Committees:

                      TITLE I--DEPARTMENT OF LABOR

                 Employment and Training Administration

                    TRAINING AND EMPLOYMENT SERVICES

                        (INCLUDING RESCISSIONS)

    The amended bill includes $3,608,349,000 for Training and 
Employment Services, instead of $3,530,530,000 as proposed by 
the House and $3,587,138,000 as proposed by the Senate. Of the 
amount appropriated, $1,772,000,000 is an advance appropriation 
for fiscal year 2009 as proposed by the House and the Senate.
    For dislocated worker assistance, $1,471,903,000 is 
provided. This includes $1,189,811,000 for the State formula 
grants and $282,092,000 for the National Reserve Account, 
overriding the formula that provides that 80 percent of the 
funds available will be used for State formula grants and 20 
percent in a National Reserve Account. Within the National 
Reserve Account, the amended bill provides that $6,300,000 
shall be available upon enactment for the purposes of grants, 
to be awarded within 30 days of enactment, for the continuation 
of national or multi-state training and employment programs. 
These grants are to be awarded to the AFL-CIO Working for 
America Institute and the AFL-CIO Appalachian Council, as 
proposed by the Senate, and the National Center on Education 
and the Economy, as proposed by the House. The amended bill 
also provides that up to $125,000,000 within the National 
Reserve Account may be used for competitive grants under the 
Community-Based Job Training Grant initiative. No funds from 
the dislocated worker national reserve account or other pilot 
and demonstration resources shall be used for career 
advancement accounts or the predecessor proposal for personal 
reemployment accounts prior to a specific authorization of such 
activities.
    Within the total provided for Migrant and Seasonal 
Farmworkers, $75,610,000 is provided for State service area 
grants, $4,975,000 is provided for housing grants and $500,000 
is included for other discretionary purposes, as described in 
the Senate report. The amended bill includes bill language 
proposed by the House providing that no less than 70 percent of 
formula funds be used for employment and training services and 
bill language proposed by the Senate which prohibits the 
Department from restricting the provision of ``related 
assistance'' services by grantees. These provisions ensure that 
the program primarily addresses the employment and training 
needs of the target population while also allowing grantees to 
provide related services that are often critical to the 
stabilization and availability of the farm labor workforce.
    For YouthBuild, the $60,000,000 included in the amended 
bill will provide sufficient funds for an additional 
competitive grant round in program year 2008.
    For Pilots, Demonstrations and Research, the amended bill 
includes $49,370,000 instead of $28,140,000 as proposed by the 
House and $30,650,000 as proposed by the Senate. Included in 
this amount is $5,000,000 for a new demonstration program of 
competitive grants to address the employment and training needs 
of young parents as proposed by the House and detailed in House 
Report 110-231. The House provided $10,000,000 for this 
purpose. The Senate had no similar provision.
    The amended bill also includes funds within Pilots, 
Demonstrations and Research to support the following projects 
in the following amounts:

[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] T9564.372

[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] T9564.373

[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] T9564.374

    The amended bill consolidates the Responsible Reintegration 
of Youthful Offenders and Prisoner Reentry programs into a 
program of Reintegration of Ex-Offenders, as proposed by the 
House. The amended bill provides $74,800,000, instead of 
$68,746,000 as proposed by the House and a total of $68,642,000 
as proposed by the Senate in two individual programs. Within 
this amount, bill language provides that no less than 
$55,000,000 be used for programming for youth, and that a total 
of $50,000,000 be available from resources in both fiscal years 
2007 and 2008 for a youth mentoring initiative. The $50,000,000 
provided is for competitive grants to local educational 
agencies or community-based organizations to develop and 
implement mentoring strategies in schools identified as 
persistently dangerous. The Department should use $29,000,000 
provided in this Act, along with $21,000,000 in funds made 
available under the fiscal year 2007 appropriation for youthful 
offenders, for this purpose and issue a solicitation of grant 
agreements on a timeline that provides for the incorporation of 
both the fiscal year 2007 and fiscal year 2008 contributions to 
the enhanced effort to assist persistently dangerous schools in 
mentoring efforts to prevent youth violence in high crime 
areas.
    The amended bill includes a rescission of $250,000,000 in 
prior year Workforce Investment Act unexpended balances for the 
Youth, Adult and Dislocated Worker formula programs. The 
Appropriations Committees expect the Department to adhere to 
the specific instructions in House Report 110-424 regarding the 
implementation of this rescission. Those instructions provide 
additional information on the intended methodology for the 
allocation of the rescission and the waiver of requirements 
that will minimize the burden on States and local areas.

            COMMUNITY SERVICE EMPLOYMENT FOR OLDER AMERICANS

    The amended bill includes $530,900,000 for Community 
Service Employment for Older Americans as proposed by the 
House, instead of $483,611,000 as proposed by the Senate. The 
increase over fiscal year 2007 is provided to cover the second 
increment of the Federal minimum wage increase, from $5.85 to 
$6.55 an hour, for the current level of 60,438 slots, which 
support 103,000 program participants.

     STATE UNEMPLOYMENT INSURANCE AND EMPLOYMENT SERVICE OPERATIONS

    The amended bill includes $3,323,953,000 for State 
Unemployment Insurance and Employment Service Operations, 
instead of $3,382,614,000 as proposed by the House and 
$3,386,632,000 as proposed by the Senate.
    The amended bill omits a provision proposed by the House 
and the Senate to provide $40,000,000 in additional funds for 
in-person reemployment and eligibility assessments in one-stop 
centers, along with the specific requirement that $10,000,000 
in base Unemployment Insurance (UI) administration be used for 
this purpose, allowing for State flexibility in UI 
administration. The amended bill retains language included in 
the earlier conference report on H.R. 3043, and described in 
House Report 110-424, that allows the Secretary of Labor to 
make payments on behalf of the States for matching UI claims 
information against the information in the National Directory 
of New Hires to prevent, detect, and collect improper UI 
payments.
    Within the amount provided for Employment Service grants to 
States, $12,740,000 is provided for foreign labor certification 
programs, and $17,677,000 is included for administration of the 
Work Opportunity Tax Credit. Within the amount provided for 
workforce information, national electronic tools and one-stop 
system building, the Appropriations Committees direct that 
workforce information grants to the States be funded at no less 
than $32,430,000. Within the amount provided for Work Incentive 
Grants, the Appropriations Committees direct that all States 
that wish to participate in this program shall receive funding 
for new or continuation grants to support their disability 
navigator programs.

                         PROGRAM ADMINISTRATION

    The amended bill includes $175,387,000 for Program 
Administration, instead of $170,500,000 as proposed by the 
House and $185,505,000 as proposed by the Senate.
    Within the amount for employment security activities, not 
less than $42,225,000 is provided to improve the timeliness and 
quality of processing applications under the foreign labor 
certification program.

               Employee Benefits Security Administration

                         SALARIES AND EXPENSES

    The amended bill includes $141,790,000 for the Employee 
Benefits Security Administration (EBSA), instead of 
$142,925,000 as proposed by the House and $143,262,000 as 
proposed by the Senate. The Appropriations Committees request a 
briefing on the schedule for the completion of the EFAST2 
system prior to the announcement of the availability of funds 
for its development and also request regular progress reports 
on this project. The Committees are in agreement that EBSA 
should devote resources to the issuance of regulations on 
meaningful and uniform reporting of 401(k) fees and that a 
national education program on 401(k) investment options, fees 
and conflict of interest be created as described in House 
Report 110-231.

                  Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation

               PENSION BENEFIT GUARANTY CORPORATION FUND

    The amended bill includes $411,151,000 for the 
administrative expenses of the Pension Benefit Guaranty 
Corporation, as proposed by both the House and the Senate. 
Language in the Senate bill providing for obligations in excess 
of such amount is not included.

                  Employment Standards Administration

                         SALARIES AND EXPENSES

    The amended bill includes $428,409,000 for the Employment 
Standards Administration, salaries and expenses, instead of 
$436,508,000 as proposed by the House and $438,508,000 as 
proposed by the Senate.
    Within the amount provided for the enforcement of wage and 
hour standards, $1,000,000 is provided for accelerating start-
up of a system to resolve claims of injury caused by asbestos 
exposure. If the authority for an asbestos claims program is 
not enacted by June 30, 2008, these additional funds may be 
used to support wage and hour enforcement in low wage 
industries.
    The amended bill includes a rescission of $102,000,000 in 
unobligated funds collected pursuant to section 286(v) of the 
Immigration and Nationality Act. The House and the Senate 
proposed a rescission of $70,000,000; however, information 
received from the Department of Labor indicates that receipts 
in this account allow a higher amount to be rescinded while 
still ensuring that the $5,500,000 the Department estimates it 
will use in fiscal year 2008 under current authority remains 
available.

     Administrative Expenses, Energy Employees Occupational Illness

                           COMPENSATION FUND

                     (INCLUDING TRANSFER OF FUNDS)

    Within the total provided, the amended bill includes a 
proviso transferring $4,500,000 to the National Institute for 
Occupational Safety and Health for use by the Advisory Board on 
Radiation and Worker Health. While both the House and the 
Senate included this provision, the House report specified that 
the amount be in addition to $55,358,000 identified for 
transfer to the Department of Health and Human Services. This 
explanatory statement clarifies that the $4,500,000 for the 
Advisory Board on Radiation and Worker Health is a part of the 
total transfer amount identified in the budget request.

             Occupational Safety and Health Administration

                         SALARIES AND EXPENSES

    The amended bill includes $494,641,000 for the Occupational 
Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), instead of 
$503,516,000 as proposed by the House and $498,445,000 as 
proposed by the Senate.
    The Appropriations Committees believe that it is important 
to rebuild the Federal enforcement capacity of OSHA and that 
the agency should collect data needed to evaluate the 
effectiveness of voluntary compliance programs before 
additional investments are made to support this approach. The 
additional funds over the level requested for Federal 
Enforcement are intended to fund no fewer than 20 additional 
enforcement positions.
    The amended bill includes language proposed by the House 
requiring the Secretary of Labor to provide detailed reports on 
the development and issuance of certain occupational safety and 
health standards that have remained on the OSHA regulatory 
agenda without completion. The Senate had a similar provision 
in its report, but not in the bill.
    The Appropriations Committees expect that the Department 
will adhere to the instructions in House Report 110-424 
relating to guidelines and enforcement actions on ergonomic 
injuries, standard-setting on worker protection in the event of 
an influenza pandemic, and occupational exposure to the 
chemical diacetyl in food manufacturing.

                 Mine Safety and Health Administration

                         SALARIES AND EXPENSES

    The amended bill includes $339,862,000 for the Mine Safety 
and Health Administration (MSHA), instead of $340,028,000 as 
proposed by the Senate or $313,478,000 as proposed by the 
House.
    As detailed in House Report 110-424, the Appropriations 
Committees are disturbed that MSHA has fallen significantly 
short of its obligation to complete 100 percent of regular 
inspections of coal mines, as required by law. In 2006, almost 
5 of every 100 required inspections nationally were not 
completed. In some districts, the rates were close to 15 or 20 
of every 100 required inspections that were not completed. A 
similar shortfall exists in the metal/non-metal sector. The 
increase over fiscal year 2007 is provided to ensure that MSHA 
can carry out its legal obligations to regularly inspect our 
nation's mines. MSHA should adhere to the directions in House 
Report 110-424 pertaining to the submission of a detailed 
operating plan describing how these funds will be utilized and 
the specific outcomes that will be achieved.
    Within the amount provided for Program Administration, 
$2,200,000 is provided for a national project award to the 
United Mine Workers of America for classroom and simulated 
rescue training for mine rescue teams, and $1,184,000 for the 
Wheeling Jesuit University National Technology Transfer Center.

                       Bureau of Labor Statistics

                         SALARIES AND EXPENSES

    The amended bill includes $553,928,000 for the Bureau of 
Labor Statistics (BLS), instead of $576,118,000 as proposed by 
the House and $560,000,000 as proposed by the Senate.
    The increase above fiscal year 2007 for Prices and Cost of 
Living is provided for continuous updating of the housing and 
geographic area samples of the Consumer Price Index (CPI). To 
the extent possible, the Appropriations Committees recommend 
that funds above the fiscal year 2007 level for Compensation 
and Working Conditions be used for the reinstatement of focused 
research studies on work-related injuries and illnesses, and 
request that the Department provide a plan for this activity in 
the fiscal year 2009 budget justification. The Appropriations 
Committees are also interested in ascertaining the impact of 
the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) on employment 
in the United States and expect the Department to adhere to the 
instructions in House Report 110-424 pertaining to a study of 
the implementation of NAFTA.

                 Office of Disability Employment Policy

                         SALARIES AND EXPENSES

    The amended bill includes $27,712,000 for the Office of 
Disability Employment Policy (ODEP), as proposed by the House 
and the Senate. At least 80 percent of these funds shall be 
used to design and implement research and technical assistance 
grants and contracts to develop policy that reduces barriers to 
employment for youth and adults with disabilities. The 
Appropriations Committees also expect the Department to adhere 
to the directions in House Report 110-424 concerning a report 
on the extent to which effective disability employment policy 
developed by the ODEP has been implemented within the 
Department of Labor and by other Federal agencies.

                        Departmental Management

                         SALARIES AND EXPENSES

    The amended bill includes $297,064,000 for Departmental 
Management, salaries and expenses, instead of $272,595,000 as 
proposed by the House and $313,218,000 as proposed by the 
Senate.
    The amended bill includes $82,516,000 for the International 
Bureau of Labor Affairs (ILAB). Within this amount, $5,000,000 
is provided to implement model programs to address worker 
rights through technical assistance in countries with which the 
United States has trade preference programs and directs that 
this activity be carried out through a cooperative agreement 
with an international organization that has experience in 
working to assure adherence to a set of core labor standards 
through work with governments, employers and labor 
organizations. The Appropriations Committees believe that a 
component of this new program should first be implemented in 
the Republic of Haiti, at a funding level of not less than 
$1,000,000. As a demonstration of the investment of the private 
sector and the government of Haiti in the project, an adequate 
cost-share from Haitian sources should also be committed before 
the initiation of the project. The program in Haiti will 
develop a system of monitoring and transparent public reporting 
on the adherence and enforcement of worker rights, based on the 
approach used in the successful International Labor 
Organization (ILO) Garment Sector Working Conditions 
Improvement Project in Cambodia. This multi-year program should 
improve working conditions in Haiti's garment industry, while 
increasing compliance with core international labor standards. 
The Department of Labor shall report to the Committees no later 
than June 30, 2008 on the progress of implementing the 
cooperative agreement covering Haiti and other countries with 
which the U.S. has trade agreements.
    The recommendation for ILAB also includes $41,000,000 for 
the U.S. contribution to the International Program for the 
Elimination of Child Labor and $24,000,000 for bilateral 
assistance to improve access to basic education in 
international areas with a high rate of abusive and 
exploitative child labor. The Department should also adhere to 
the directions in House Report 110-424 concerning cooperation 
with the ILO on the implementation of standards in the garment 
industry in India.
    The funds provided for information technology systems 
support information technology, architecture, infrastructure, 
equipment and software utilized by multiple agencies within the 
Department. The Appropriations Committees support the use of a 
portion of such funds for the acquisition of a Financial 
Management System for the Department of Labor. The President's 
request to Congress included $12,000,000 as a direct 
appropriation to the Working Capital Fund for this initiative.
    The increased funding level over fiscal year 2007 for the 
Office of the Solicitor is intended to support no less than an 
increase of 17 FTEs for enforcement support for the Mine Safety 
and Health Administration.
    For the Women's Bureau, $9,832,000 is provided, instead of 
$10,500,000 as proposed by the House and $10,300,000 as 
proposed by the Senate. Continued funding for national networks 
for women's employment that advance women in the workplace 
through education and advocacy is encouraged.

                          OFFICE OF JOB CORPS

    The amended bill funds this program within the Office of 
the Secretary as proposed by the House and the Senate. This 
reflects the current organizational status of the program, and 
the funds for the administration of this program are included 
in this account instead of within program administration for 
the Employment and Training Administration.
    The $12,920,000 provided above the request for the 
renovation and construction of Job Corps centers is included 
for the continued development of new Job Corps centers that 
have been awarded and are not yet completed. The Appropriations 
Committees request that the Department of Labor include an 
analysis of the future funding needs of all new centers in 
development and a progress report on the timeline for opening 
new centers in its fiscal year 2009 budget justification, as 
proposed by the Senate.
    The Appropriations Committees believe that significant 
programmatic changes to Job Corps operations and student 
services should not be made prior to the reauthorization of the 
Workforce Investment Act. It may be appropriate to pilot any 
new initiatives at select Job Corps centers and provide the 
appropriations and authorizing committees evidence and data 
that such changes will improve Job Corps performance and 
students' employment and earnings outcomes prior to national 
implementation. In consultation with system stakeholders, the 
Department should develop a national recruitment and retention 
strategy that will ensure current student training slots are 
fully utilized. In order to ensure that the Job Corps program 
maximizes opportunities for participation, the amended bill 
includes language providing that none of the funds in the Act 
be used to reduce student training slots below the current 
level of 44,491 in program year 2008. The House and Senate 
included similar slot protection provisions.

                    VETERANS EMPLOYMENT AND TRAINING

    The amended bill includes $232,153,000 for Veterans 
Employment and Training, instead of $228,198,000 as proposed by 
the House and $231,198,000 as proposed by the Senate. The 
Appropriations Committees encourage the Department to direct 
additional funds to the Transition Assistance Program, which 
will ensure that the increasing demand for services is met. The 
Committees also expect the Department to increase enforcement 
activities to ensure that veterans' rights under the Uniformed 
Service Employment and Re-Employment Rights Act and Veterans 
Employment Opportunities Act are being protected.

                      OFFICE OF INSPECTOR GENERAL

    The amended bill includes $75,713,000 for the Office of 
Inspector General, instead of $78,658,000 as proposed by the 
House and $79,658,000 as proposed by the Senate.

                           General Provisions


                           JOB CORPS SALARIES

    The amended bill includes language that prohibits the use 
of funds for the Job Corps program to pay the salary of any 
individual, either as direct costs or any pro-ration as an 
indirect cost, at a rate in excess of Executive Level I, as 
proposed by the Senate. The House included a similar provision 
in the Job Corps account.

                     ONE PERCENT TRANSFER AUTHORITY

                          (TRANSFER OF FUNDS)

    The amended bill includes a provision limiting the 
authority to transfer funds between a program, project or 
activity and requiring a 15 day advance notification of any 
such request. Both the House and Senate bills contained similar 
provisions.

                           TRANSIT SUBSIDIES

    The amended bill includes a provision requiring the 
Secretary of Labor to issue a monthly transit subsidy at the 
full amount of $110 for eligible employees in the National 
Capital Region, as proposed by the House. The Senate bill 
contained no similar provision.

                             OPERATING PLAN

    The amended bill includes a provision prohibiting the 
obligation of funds for demonstration, pilot, multiservice, 
research and multistate projects under section 171 of the 
Workforce Investment Act prior to the submission of a report on 
the planned use of such funds, as proposed by the House. The 
Senate had a similar provision requiring an operating plan for 
the use of such funds. Specific instructions pertaining to this 
provision are included in House Report 110-424.

                           DENALI COMMISSION

    The amended bill includes a provision, as proposed by the 
Senate that authorizes such sums as may be necessary to the 
Denali Commission to conduct job training where Denali 
Commission projects will be constructed. The House bill 
contained no similar provision.

                     GRANTS USING H-1B VISA REVENUE

    The amended bill includes a provision that prohibits the 
use of the funds available to the Department under section 
414(c) of the American Competitiveness and Workforce 
Improvement Act for other than training in the occupations and 
industries for which employers are using the visas to hire 
foreign workers that generate these funds. The Department 
should ensure that funded activities include industry career 
ladder programs and understand that there are some related 
activities that enhance or facilitate training programs that 
are part of a coordinated industry approach. The amended bill 
provides that this limitation shall not apply to multi-year 
grants that have been awarded prior to June 30, 2007, to 
account for three rounds of Workforce Innovation in Regional 
Economic Development (WIRED) grants. The House bill contained a 
similar provision.

                           COMPETITIVE GRANTS

    The amended bill includes a provision prohibiting 
Community-Based Job Training grants and grants authorized under 
section 414(c) of the American Competitiveness and Workforce 
Improvement Act from being awarded on a non-competitive basis. 
Both the House and Senate bills included similar provisions.

    ADMINISTRATIVE COST DEFINITION AND REDESIGNATION OF LOCAL AREAS

    The amended bill includes a provision requiring that the 
Secretary of Labor take no action to amend the definition 
established in 20 CFR 667.220 for functions and activities 
under title I of the Workforce Investment Act of 1998 or to 
modify the procedure for designation of local areas as 
specified in that Act until such time as legislation 
reauthorizing the Act is enacted, as proposed by the Senate. 
The House bill contained a similar provision.

                        MINE SAFETY REGULATIONS

    The amended bill includes language requiring specific dates 
by which the Secretary of Labor propose, and subsequently 
finalize, mine safety regulations regarding belt haulage 
entries and rescue chambers in coal mines, and makes additional 
requirements for review of mine ventilation plans. The Senate 
bill included a similar provision, while the House bill did not 
include such a provision.

                          SALARIES AND BONUSES

    The amended bill includes a provision proposed by the 
Senate that prohibits grantees from using funds appropriated 
for the Employment and Training Administration to pay the 
salary and bonuses of an individual at a rate in excess of 
Executive Level II. The House bill contained no similar 
provision.

       NATIONAL EMERGENCY GRANT ASSISTANCE TO GREENSBURG, KANSAS

    The amended bill includes language to enhance the federal 
government's response to the May 4 tornado in Greensburg, 
Kansas which is intended to deal only with the specific 
circumstances of this community. This devastating tornado has 
created a unique problem that requires relief from certain 
rules that would otherwise apply to the use of national 
emergency grant funds. This flexibility will enable funds to be 
used to pay for certain professional municipal services. The 
Appropriations Committees understand that $2,500,000 is planned 
to be spent for these purposes, and request notification and 
justification from the Department if a greater amount is 
required. This provision was included in the Senate Homeland 
Security Appropriations bill.

              HEALTH COVERAGE TAX CREDIT GAP-FILLER GRANTS

    The amended bill does not include a provision included in 
the House bill authorizing up to $20,000,000 in revenue 
available to the Department under section 414 (c) of the 
American Competitiveness and Workforce Improvement Act to be 
used for ``gap-filler'' grants to trade-impacted workers 
awaiting certification for the Health Coverage Tax Credit. The 
Senate bill contained no similar provision. The Department of 
Labor should make grants available to States from the 
Dislocated Worker National Reserve for this purpose and to 
increase outreach to trade-impacted workers to inform them of 
their eligibility for the Health Coverage Tax Credit.

                     PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT

    The amended bill deletes a provision included in the House 
bill and previous conference report to require the Secretary of 
Labor to promulgate a final rule on employer payment for 
personal protective equipment no later than November 30, 2007. 
This provision is no longer needed because the final rule was 
adopted by the Department of Labor on November 15, 2007. The 
Appropriations Committees will continue to monitor the 
Department's implementation of the final rule to ensure that it 
is fully implemented and enforced and that there are no 
attempts to weaken the level of protection afforded workers.

                          MINE SAFETY FUNDING

    The amended bill does not include a general provision 
proposed by the Senate providing additional funding for 
necessary expenses for the Mine Safety and Health 
Administration (MSHA). Funding for MSHA is included under the 
heading for this agency. The House bill contained no similar 
provision.

                       NIOSH FIRE FIGHTER PROGRAM

    The amended bill does not include a general provision 
proposed by the Senate providing that $5,000,000 be available 
in Title I for the National Institute for Occupational Safety 
and Health (NIOSH) to carry out the Fire Fighter Fatality 
Investigation and Preventions Program. Funding for this 
activity is included within the funds made available to NIOSH 
in Title II. The House bill contained no similar provision.

           TITLE II--DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES


              Health Resources and Services Administration


                     HEALTH RESOURCES AND SERVICES

Public Health Service policy evaluation set-aside, instead of 
$7,086,709,000 as proposed by the House and $6,888,810,000 as 
proposed by the Senate.
    The amended bill includes funds within health care-related 
facilities and activities to support the following projects in 
the following amounts:

    The amended bill does not include bill language proposed by 
the Senate earmarking $250,000 for the Center for Asbestos 
Related Disease (CARD) Clinic in Libby, Montana. The House bill 
did not contain similar language.
    The amended bill includes language identifying $40,000,000 
for base grant adjustments for existing community health 
centers as proposed by the Senate instead of $35,000,000 as 
proposed by the House.
    The amended bill includes language contained in the Senate 
bill permitting funding appropriated for the free clinics 
program to be used for relevant evaluations as well as for 
administrative expenses. The House bill included no similar 
provision.
    The amended bill includes language designating $44,055,000 
for expenses associated with extending Federal Tort Claims Act 
protection to practitioners in community health centers as 
proposed by the Senate instead of $45,000,000 as proposed by 
the House.
    The amended bill includes language providing $1,854,800,000 
for Parts A and B of the Ryan White HIV/AIDS Treatment 
Modernization Act, to be available through September 30, 2010, 
instead of $1,865,800,000 as proposed by the House and 
$1,829,511,000 as proposed by the Senate.
    The amended bill modifies bill language proposed by the 
House limiting 2007 program year reductions in Ryan White Part 
A grants for metropolitan areas and transitional areas. The 
Senate bill did not have a similar provision.
    The amended bill includes the following set-asides within 
the maternal and child health (MCH) block grant:

                                                                       House          Senate       Amended bill

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Within this amount, first-time motherhood funding shall be 
for grants to States to increase public awareness of resources 
available to women preparing for childbirth and new parents 
through advertising campaigns and toll-free hotlines. Doula 
grants shall be for organizations to support and expand 
community-based doula activities, including technical 
assistance.
    In addition to the SPRANS funding above for oral health 
activities, an additional $5,000,000 is provided for Dental 
Health Improvement Act State grants (authorized under section 
340G of the Public Health Service Act) within allied health.
    The amended bill includes language proposed by the Senate 
that identifies not less than $5,000,000 for general dentistry 
programs, not less than $5,000,000 for pediatric dentistry 
programs, and not less than $24,614,000 for family medicine 
programs.
    The amended bill does not include language proposed by the 
Senate that would modify the current rules for managing 
facility and equipment projects. The House bill did not include 
a similar provision.
    The Appropriations Committees support continued efforts to 
expand the community health centers program into areas of the 
country without access to a health center, but urge HRSA not to 
allocate new funding according to certain geographic areas, 
such as counties.
    The amended bill provides $14,200,000 for Native Hawaiian 
health care activities within the consolidated health centers 
program as proposed by the Senate. The House did not identify 
specific funding for Native Hawaiian activities.
    HRSA should use National Health Service Corps recruitment 
funds only to support multi-year, rather than single year, 
commitments, as directed by the Senate.
    Of the funds provided for allied health training programs, 
$5,000,000 is for grants to States authorized under section 
340G of the Public Health Service Act to improve access to 
dental care, $1,980,000 is allocated to the chiropractic-
medical school demonstration grants, and $1,980,000 is 
designated for the psychology training program.
    Within the funding provided for autism and other related 
developmental disorders, an increase of no less than $6,000,000 
is provided to continue and expand the Leadership Education in 
Neurodevelopmental and Related Disabilities program. In 
addition, an increase of no less than $6,000,000 is provided 
for research on evidence-based practices for interventions for 
individuals with autism and other developmental disabilities, 
for development of guidelines for those interventions, and for 
information dissemination.
    The amended bill provides $3,000,000 within traumatic brain 
injury funding for protection and advocacy services, instead of 
$3,400,000 as identified in the Senate report. The House report 
did not have similar language.
    The Appropriations Committees are pleased that HRSA intends 
to allocate the maximum authorized level for the minority AIDS 
initiative within the Ryan White HIV programs.
    At least fifty percent of the increase within the Ryan 
White children, youth, women, and families programs should be 
used to increase average grant award size.
    The Appropriations Committees are aware that HRSA has 
issued proposed regulations revising the requirements for the 
340B drug purchasing program. While there are important 
elements in the regulations that target abuses of the program, 
there are legitimate concerns regarding the implementation of 
the proposed rule's definition of patient eligibility. The 
questions of eligibility and the means by which eligibility is 
determined are important and should be carefully considered. 
Therefore, HRSA should move quickly to implement the portions 
of the regulation that enjoy wide support and consider re-
opening the patient eligibility question for an additional 
public comment period. The House and Senate included similar 
report language.
    Within funding provided for rural flexibility grants, the 
amended bill provides $15,000,000 for the small rural hospital 
improvement grant program as proposed by the Senate.
    The Appropriations Committees concur with guidance in the 
Senate report regarding the 2006 Delta health initiative 
satisfying the requirements of the authorization provided in 
section 219. The House report did not contain similar language.
    The amended bill does not include funding within the rural 
and community access to emergency devices program to establish 
an information clearinghouse that provides information to 
increase public access to defibrillation in schools, as 
proposed by the Senate. Funding for emergency devices should be 
divided equally between urban and rural communities, as 
proposed by the Senate. The House bill had no similar language.
    Many rural hospitals are working to implement systems to 
transmit medical information electronically to help deliver 
efficient and effective health care services to their patients. 
HRSA is encouraged to continue to examine ways to help such 
hospitals implement digital technologies, such as picture 
archiving communications systems and other digital 
technologies.
    HRSA should use no more than one percent of the funds 
allocated for projects for agency administrative expenses.

             VACCINE INJURY COMPENSATION PROGRAM TRUST FUND

    The conference agreement provides $5,500,000 for 
administration for the Trust Fund instead of $3,528,000 as 
proposed by both the House and the Senate. These funds are 
necessary to support the adjudication of an expected high 
volume of claims.

               Centers for Disease Control and Prevention


                DISEASE CONTROL, RESEARCH, AND TRAINING

    The amended bill includes $6,156,541,000 for disease 
control, research, and training at the Centers for Disease 
Control and Prevention (CDC), instead of $6,138,253,000 as 
proposed by the House and $6,165,338,000 as proposed by the 
Senate. In addition, $325,673,000 is made available under 
section 241 of the Public Health Service (PHS) Act, instead of 
$319,579,000 as proposed by the House and $269,664,000 as 
proposed by the Senate.
    The amended bill includes language directing CDC to enter 
into a single contract or related contracts for the full scope 
of development and construction of the next facility designated 
by the CDC Building and Facilities Master Plan and that the 
solicitation and contract shall contain the clause 
``availability of funds''. The Appropriations Committees intend 
that the contract(s) for the development and construction of 
the new facility be awarded in fiscal year 2008. Similar 
language was proposed by the Senate. The House did not propose 
similar language.
    The amended bill includes language designating $109,000,000 
to provide screening and treatment for first response emergency 
services personnel, residents, students, and others related to 
the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks on the World Trade 
Center (WTC). Bill language is included designating $56,500,000 
as an emergency. The Appropriations Committees intend that this 
program be administered by the National Institute of 
Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH). The House proposed 
$50,000,000 in CDC for first response emergency personnel only 
and the Senate proposed $55,000,000 in the Public Health and 
Social Services Emergency Fund (PHSSEF) to be transferred to 
CDC for responders, residents, students and others.
    The amended bill includes language designating $113,636,000 
for the National Center for Health Statistics surveys to be 
available through the evaluation set-aside authorized by 
section 241 of the PHS Act, instead of $120,000,000 as proposed 
by the House and $108,585,000 as proposed by the Senate. Also 
within the set-aside, the amended bill includes $48,523,000 for 
Health Marketing instead of $39,173,000 as proposed by the 
House and $463,000 for health marketing evaluations as proposed 
by the Senate.
    The amended bill includes language that not to exceed 
$18,929,000 may be available for making grants for the 
WISEWOMAN program to not less than 15 States, tribes, or tribal 
organizations. The Senate proposed $19,035,000 in this same 
manner and the House proposed $12,500,000 to not more than 15 
States, tribes, or tribal organizations.
    The amended bill includes language that out of the funds 
made available for domestic HIV/AIDS testing, up to $30,000,000 
shall be for States eligible for the Early Diagnosis Grant 
Program, authorized by section 2625 of the Public Health 
Service Act, as of December 31, 2007. Funding for these grants 
shall be distributed by May 31, 2008 based on standard criteria 
relating to a State's epidemiological profile and shall not 
exceed $1,000,000 for any one State. Any amounts that have not 
been obligated by May 31, 2008 shall be used to make grants to 
States and local public health departments for other HIV 
prevention activities. The House proposed that no funds 
appropriated may be used to implement the Early Diagnosis Grant 
Program and the Senate proposed to allow up to $30,000,000 for 
the program if States are eligible.
    The amended bill includes language providing that employees 
of the CDC or the Public Health Service, detailed to States, 
municipalities, or other organizations under authority of 
section 214 of the PHS Act or in overseas assignments shall be 
treated as non-Federal employees for reporting purposes only 
and shall not be included within any personnel ceiling 
applicable to the Agency as proposed by the Senate. The House 
included similar language but did not include employees in 
overseas assignments.
    The amended bill includes ongoing pandemic influenza and 
related activities in the CDC appropriation as proposed by the 
House. The Senate proposed to fund these activities in PHSSEF 
to be transferred to CDC. The total amount available in the 
amended bill for CDC's ongoing pandemic influenza activities 
totals $157,737,000 and are detailed later in this explanatory 
statement.
    The Appropriations Committees note that in September 2007, 
CDC realigned its budget through a reprogramming and transfer 
of funds at the program, project, and activity level. The 
Secretary communicated his intent that the realignment of funds 
be permanent. Funding levels proposed in the House- and Senate-
passed bills did not reflect these changes because the request 
for reprogramming came after initial House and Senate Committee 
action on the fiscal year 2008 appropriations bills. Funding 
levels provided in the amended bill make the funding 
realignment permanent. CDC is expected to adhere to enacted 
funding levels in fiscal year 2008 and to not tap or assess 
program activities for unrelated purposes. For purposes of 
displaying accurate comparability, the following House and 
Senate funding levels identified in the CDC portion of the 
explanatory statement have been adjusted to account for this 
funding realignment.

    The additional funds for the heart disease and stroke 
Mississippi Delta program will enable an expansion of these 
activities throughout the Mississippi Delta region as proposed 
by the Senate. The House did not propose similar language.
    Funding is available to continue and expand the National 
Lupus Patient Registry to operate seven sites, including a 
coordinating site. The Appropriations Committees are concerned 
by the lack of reliable epidemiological data on the incidence 
and prevalence of all forms of lupus among various ethnic and 
racial groups. These sites should have an expertise in lupus 
epidemiology and represent the geographic regions of the U.S. 
that have a sufficient number of individuals of racial and 
ethnic groups that are disproportionately affected by lupus, 
principally African Americans, Hispanics/Latinos, Asian 
Americans, and Native Americans.
    The increase for the Office of Smoking and Health should be 
used to support a stepped up effort by the Environmental Health 
Laboratory to analyze tobacco products and cigarette smoke as 
proposed by the Senate. The House did not propose similar 
language.
    Sufficient funds are included for CDC to conduct a study of 
the impact of school nutrition and physical activity programs 
on academic outcomes as proposed by the Senate. The House did 
not propose similar language.
    Funding is for the National Academy of Sciences' Institute 
of Medicine to examine and make recommendations regarding 
various means that could be employed to reduce dietary sodium 
intake to levels recommended by the Dietary Guidelines for 
Americans as proposed by the Senate. The House did not propose 
similar language.
    Funding is included within community health promotion for 
activities related to sleep disorders including CDC's 
participation in the national sleep awareness roundtable as 
proposed by the House. The Senate did not propose similar 
language.
    Funding is included to develop a policy to manage the risk 
of food allergies and anaphylaxis in schools and to provide 
parents with enhanced information on these conditions via the 
Internet as proposed by the House. The Senate did not propose 
similar language.

    Within the funds provided for the Environmental Health 
Laboratory, CDC is encouraged to provide funding for States 
with existing biomonitoring programs to expand laboratory 
capacity; conduct subpopulation studies; conduct representative 
analyses of routinely collected blood, cord blood and other 
biospecimens; develop protocols for conducting biomonitoring of 
sensitive subpopulations such as children; and support 
biomonitoring field operations such as participant enrollment, 
sample collection, data analysis, report generation and results 
communications. CDC also is encouraged to begin developing new 
methods for identifying chemical sources and routes of exposure 
using model exposure questionnaires and collection of relevant 
household and other environmental samples.
    Within the funds provided for the environmental and health 
outcome tracking network, CDC is encouraged to make funding 
available to State environmental health tracking programs to 
develop replicable models for disease, hazard and exposure data 
sharing at the local, State and national levels that 
incorporate data confidentiality protections. CDC is further 
encouraged to include non-governmental organizations 
representing health-affected constituencies, environmental 
health and environmental justice in their advisory groups.
    The funds included for the amyotrophic lateral sclerosis 
registry are intended to expand the registry to include other 
neurodegenerative disorders.

    Funds are included for the development and distribution of 
awareness materials on alveolar capillary dysplasia (ACD) to 
neonatologists and intensive care pediatricians to assist in 
the proper diagnosis of ACD. Neither the House nor the Senate 
proposed funding for these activities. The Appropriations 
Committees are aware of a congenital malformation of the lungs 
affecting infants, known as ACD, in which the normal diffusion 
process of oxygen from the air sacs to the blood in the lungs 
fails to develop properly. Life expectancy for infants with ACD 
is extremely short, and anecdotal evidence indicates that ACD 
is often misdiagnosed. Proper recognition and diagnosis of the 
disease are essential first steps to obtaining accurate 
prevalence data for ACD.

                     HEALTH INFORMATION AND SERVICE

    The total provided for the NIOSH includes sufficient 
funding to maintain staffing levels at the Morgantown facility 
and to increase research funding at that facility as proposed 
by the Senate. Funding also is included to continue the farm 
health and safety initiative as proposed by the Senate. The 
House did not propose either of these programs.
    For the mining research program, the Appropriations 
Committees expect that additional funding will ensure that the 
mine safety research agenda in areas such as dust monitoring, 
roof control, and disaster prevention are not abandoned. As 
proposed by the Senate, NIOSH is directed to expand the 
required progress reports on grant-making and research findings 
for research goals such as dust monitoring, roof control, and 
disaster prevention. The House did not propose such language.
    The amended bill includes sufficient funds for NIOSH to 
conduct, in collaboration with the University of Utah and West 
Virginia University, a study of the recovery of coal pillars 
through retreat room and pillar mining practices in underground 
coal mines at depths greater than 1500 feet. The study should 
examine the safety implications of retreat room and pillar 
mining practices, with emphasis on the impact of full or 
partial pillar extraction mining. The study should include, but 
not be limited to, analyses of (1) the conditions under which 
retreat mining is used, including conditions relating to seam 
thickness; depth of cover; strength of the mine roof, pillars, 
and floor; and the susceptibility of the mine to seismic 
activity; and (2) the procedures used to ensure miner safety 
during retreat mining. NIOSH is directed to submit a report, 
not later than two years after beginning the study, containing 
the results of the study to the Committees on Appropriations of 
the House of Representatives and the Senate. The report shall 
include recommendations to enhance the safety of miners working 
in underground coal mines where retreat mining in room and 
pillar operations is utilized. Among other things, the 
recommendations should identify means of adapting any practical 
technology to the mining environment to improve miner 
protections during mining at depths greater than 1500 feet, and 
research needed to develop improved technology to improve miner 
protections during mining at such depths.

accounts that comprise the National Institutes of Health total 
appropriation instead of $29,669,712,000 as proposed by the

would be expected to occur naturally in the surrounding 
community.

    NATIONAL INSTITUTE OF DIABETES AND DIGESTIVE AND KIDNEY DISEASES

    NIDDK is encouraged to conduct hemodialysis clinical trials 
on a regular basis that produce the optimum benefit for 
patients.

                 NATIONAL CENTER FOR RESEARCH RESOURCES

    The amended bill does not include language proposed by the 
Senate regarding the prohibition of funds to pay indirect 
expenses for general research support grants. This provision is 
no longer necessary. The House bill did not contain a similar 
provision.
    The amended bill provides funding for clinical and 
translational science awards divided between the Common Fund 
and NCRR in the same proportion as the Senate-passed bill. The 
Appropriations Committees remain supportive of this program as 
it matures, but are concerned about the abrupt changes in 
program funding policies implemented in 2007.
    The amended bill provides $220,500,000 for the 
Institutional Development Award (IDeA) program, rather than 
$223,607,000 as proposed by the Senate. The House had not

the House and the Senate limiting the funding for the 
Foundation for the National Institutes of Health to $500,000.

funding to be transferred to the Foundation within the limits 
set by the authorizing statute.
    The amended bill provides funding for a low percent 
increase in the average cost of new as well as non-competing 
grants. The Senate report indicated that sufficient funds were 
included to pay full committed levels on existing grants and to 
provide a three percent increase in the average cost of new 
grants. The House report provided sufficient funding for a two 
percent increase in the average cost of new grants, but did not 
include an assumption about commitment levels for existing 
grants.
    The amended bill provides the same funding as the fiscal 
year 2007 level for the Director's Pioneer awards, New 
Innovator awards, and Bridge awards. Funding for the Pathways 
to Independence program, which is funded through all institutes 
and centers, is funded at the President's fiscal year 2008 
request level. The House provided similar amounts for these 
programs. The Senate provided similar amounts for all the 
programs except Pathways to Independence, for which the Senate 
did not identify a funding level. The amended bill includes 
$96,030,000 for research on chemical, radiological and nuclear 
countermeasures instead of $95,310,000 as proposed by the House 
and $96,130,000 as proposed by the Senate.

the House and Senate Appropriations Committees each time the 
Director uses the one percent transfer authority provided in 
the NIH reauthorization.

areas impacted by Hurricanes Katrina and Rita and who have 
previous experience in providing such services.
    Within the total for mental health programs of regional and 
national significance, the amended bill includes $7,500,000 for 
a wellness initiative, instead of $15,000,000 as proposed by 
the Senate, to assist local communities in the coordination and 
improvement of the integration of behavioral/mental and 
physical health services. In carrying out this wellness 
initiative, SAMHSA is expected to collaborate with HRSA and 
CDC. The Appropriations Committees intend that funding provided 
will allow local communities to undertake a range of prevention 
and health promotion activities and expect that grantees must 
be able to evaluate the success of the program based on their 
ability to provide evidence-based services. The House did not 
propose funding for this initiative.
    For programs addressing youth suicide prevention and early 
intervention programs within the mental health programs of 
regional and national significance, the amended bill includes 
the following amounts as proposed by the Senate: $30,000,000

Center. The House did not include similar language.

    The amended bill includes a program level of $334,564,000 
for the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ) 
instead of $329,564,000 as proposed by the House and Senate.

policy evaluation set-aside. The House proposed providing 
$282,500,000 of the total for AHRQ through budget authority and 
$47,064,000 through the evaluation set-aside. The Senate

    AHRQ is encouraged to investigate the feasibility of an 
open-source, no-cost license computer model capable of

Senate. The House bill did not include funding for this 
purpose.
    The amended bill provides $40,000,000 for the State Health 
Insurance Program instead of $45,000,000 as proposed by the 
House and $35,000,000 as proposed by the Senate. The amended 
bill provides funds to support the National Center on Senior

encouraging patients to be more proactive in asking for copies 
of these important pieces of health information.

support to communities with large concentrations of Cuban and 
Haitian entrants as proposed by the House. The Senate did not 
include similar language.
     As proposed by both the House and Senate, the amended bill 
does not include funds for expanded background checks within

minors program to expand the pro bono legal services 
initiative, as proposed by both the House and Senate.

    PAYMENTS TO STATES FOR THE CHILD CARE AND DEVELOPMENT BLOCK GRANT

     The amended bill includes $2,098,746,000 for the Child

provision was not included in either the House or the Senate 
bill.

Families Services Programs, of which $10,500,000 is provided 
through the evaluation set-aside. The House bill proposed

State Grants and child abuse discretionary programs, instead of 
$63,840,000 as proposed by the House and $64,745,000 as 
proposed by the Senate.
     Within this amount, $10,178,000 is provided for a home 
visitation initiative to support competitive grants to States 
to encourage investment of existing funding streams into 
evidence-based home visitation models, instead of $10,000,000 
as proposed by the House and the Senate. The Administration for 
Children and Families shall ensure that States use the funds to 
support models that have been shown, in well-designed 
randomized controlled trials, to produce sizeable, sustained 
effects on important child outcomes such as abuse and neglect. 
Funds shall support activities to assist a range of home 
visitation programs to replicate the techniques that have met 
these high evidentiary standards. In carrying out this new 
initiative, the Department is instructed to adhere closely to 
evidence-based models of home visitation and not to incorporate 
any additional initiatives that have not met these high 
evidentiary standards or might otherwise dilute the emphasis on 
home visitation.

discretionary activities to support the following projects in 
the following amounts:

Adoption Incentives

     The amended bill includes $4,400,000 for the Adoption 
Incentive Program, rather than $9,500,000 as proposed by both 
the House and the Senate. The decrease reflects available 
carry-over from the previous fiscal year, due to the fact that 
bonus amounts earned by the States have fallen significantly, 
causing the Department to revise its estimate of funds needed 
to pay incentives earned by the States in fiscal year 2007.

Program, which provides funds to school districts that serve 
concentrations of poor students, regardless of the number of

data collection and coordination through a state education data 
center.

renegotiate the existing ``voluntary flexible agreements'' 
under the Higher Education Act, which allow student loan

defaulted loans. The provision requires the Secretary to 
negotiate new, cost-neutral agreements by March 31, 2008 with

                          SALARIES AND EXPENSES

     The amended bill includes $256,238,000 for the National 
Labor Relations Board instead of $256,988,000 as proposed by 
the Senate and $257,488,000 as proposed by the House.

                        National Mediation Board


                          SALARIES AND EXPENSES

     The amended bill includes $12,911,000 for the National 
Mediation Board instead of $12,992,000 as proposed by both the 
House and Senate. Within the total for the National Mediation 
Board, $669,000 is included to supplement the budget request 
for arbitration. These funds are provided for arbitrator 
salaries and should be used to address the backlog of section 3 
arbitration cases. The House and Senate reports included 
similar language.

                      DUAL BENEFITS PAYMENT ACCOUNT

     The amended bill includes language in the House bill 
providing that 2 percent of the amount available for payment of

     The amended bill includes $7,173,000 for the Office of 
Inspector General instead of $7,606,000 included in the House 
bill and $8,000,000 included in the Senate bill. The amended

                  SUPPLEMENTAL SECURITY INCOME PROGRAM

    The amended bill includes $27,000,191 for the Supplemental 
Security Income Program instead of $26,948,525,000 as proposed 
by the House and $27,005,500,000 as proposed by the Senate.
     The amended bill provides funds to support the National

                  LIMITATION ON ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES

limitation on administrative expenses, instead of 
$9,696,953,000 as proposed by the House and $9,871,953,000 as 
proposed by the Senate. SSA is expected to utilize these funds 
to ensure that the backlog of initial disability claims grows 
no larger and to pursue actions that will begin the reduction 
in the current appeals hearings backlog and processing times. 
The Appropriations Committees note that funding above the 
President's request is required in order to prevent such 
negative outcomes.
     While the President's request did include resources above 
the fiscal year 2007 level for additional program integrity 
work, such as continuing disability reviews and 
redeterminations of eligibility, the amended bill does not 
include language requiring that funds be used for this purpose. 
Instead, the Appropriations Committees intend for SSA to 
allocate any funds not needed for timely processing of new 
disability claims and the hearings backlog reduction plan to 
such program integrity work.
     The Appropriations Committees request that the Government 
Accountability Office (GAO) evaluate the Social Security 
Administration's plan to reduce the hearing backlog for 
disability claims at the Social Security Administration, as 
described in the report submitted by the Commissioner on 
September 13, 2007, pursuant to Senate Report 110-107. The 
Appropriations Committees further request that GAO also 
recommend any legislative changes based on its evaluation of 
the plan. The House did not propose similar language.
     The Appropriations Committees also request that GAO assess 
existing authorities to hire, manage, and ensure accountability 
of administrative law judges in the proper administration of 
their duties and make recommendations for legislative changes 
that will support those findings. The Senate bill proposed 
similar language. The House did not propose similar language in 
either the bill or report.
