  DIVISION I--MILITARY CONSTRUCTION AND VETERANS AFFAIRS AND RELATED 
                   AGENCIES APPROPRIATIONS ACT, 2008

    Following is an explanation of the effect 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 Military Construction and Veterans Affairs and 
Related Agencies Appropriations Act, 2008 (H.R. 2642) as passed 
by the House of Representatives and the Senate. References to 
amounts or language proposed by the House of Representatives or 
the Senate refer to amounts and language in the House or Senate 
passed versions of H.R. 2642 or in the accompanying committee 
reports (House Report 110-186 and Senate Report 110-85).
    Matters Addressed by Only One Committee.--The language and 
allocations set forth in House Report 110-186 and Senate Report 
110-85 should be complied with unless specifically addressed to 
the contrary in the amended bill and this explanatory 
statement. Report language included by the House, which is not 
changed by the report of the Senate or this explanatory 
statement, and Senate report language, which is not changed by 
this explanatory statement is approved by the Appropriations 
Committees of both Houses of Congress. This explanatory 
statement, while repeating some report language for emphasis, 
does not intend to negate the language referred to above unless 
expressly provided herein. In cases where the House or the 
Senate have directed the submission of a report, such report is 
to be submitted to both Houses of Congress.

                                TITLE I

                         DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE

                       Items of General Interest

    ``Grow the Force''.--The Appropriations Committees note 
that the President, in the fiscal year 2008 budget submission 
to Congress, did not identify individual projects associated 
with the Administration's $2,820,898,000 ``Grow the Force'' 
initiative, instead requesting lump sum funding for the 
initiative. Detailed information on individual projects was not 
provided by the Army and Marine Corps until weeks after the 
budget submission. The amended bill provides full funding for 
this initiative, by project, and identifies the ``Grow the 
Force'' projects in the table at the end of this division of 
this explanatory statement. The Appropriations Committees 
remind the Department that the ``Grow the Force'' projects for 
which the President requested lump sum funding are part of the 
regular military construction program and are therefore subject 
to the same notification and reprogramming requirements that 
apply to all military construction appropriations.
    Construction Inflation.--The Appropriations Committees are 
concerned by the continuing impact of high inflation rates for 
construction material prices and labor costs. These high rates 
have made it increasingly difficult for the services and 
Defense agencies to execute their military construction and 
family housing construction programs in a timely manner without 
scope reductions, project cancellations, and reprogramming 
requests. Given the enormous volume of construction to be 
completed over the next five years due to BRAC, global 
rebasing, end-strength increases for the Army and Marine Corps, 
and numerous smaller initiatives, realistic budgeting for 
construction inflation is necessary if the quality of life and 
quality of service for military personnel and their families 
are to be maintained at a high level. The Appropriations 
Committees are dismayed by the failure of the Office of 
Management and Budget and the Department of Defense to 
incorporate realistic inflation estimates in the budget 
submissions, even though the consequences of this failure are 
predictable. The Appropriations Committees support and 
encourage current efforts to more accurately account for 
regional variations in construction inflation; however, the 
Committees also believe that such efforts will be of limited 
value if the overall inflation figure used by the 
Administration to build the military construction program is 
unrealistically low. The Department of Defense is directed to 
report to the Committees on Appropriations of both Houses of 
Congress on the baseline construction inflation rate 
incorporated in the fiscal year 2009 military construction and 
family housing budget request, as well as a justification for 
that rate, no later than seven days following the submission of 
that request to Congress.
    Integrated Construction Plans for the ``Grow the Force,'' 
Global Basing, and Base Realignment and Closure Initiatives.--
The Appropriations Committees remain concerned about the 
ability of the Department of Defense to effectively coordinate 
and integrate the significant construction demands of the 
``Grow the Force'' initiative with the equally daunting 
construction programs associated with the Department's global 
rebasing plan and the 2005 Base Realignment and Closure 
program, particularly within the short timeframe allotted for 
the completion of each of these initiatives. The Secretary of 
Defense shall submit a separate report to the Committees on 
Appropriations of both Houses of Congress by January 31, 2008, 
identifying the installations at which there is any overlap of 
military construction and/or family housing construction among 
any or all of the three initiatives. In addition to a detailed 
list of the projects by installation, the report should include 
the projected timeline for completing each of the identified 
projects and the projected timeline for the movement of 
military personnel associated with the initiatives into the 
affected installations.
    Government Accountability Office (GAO) Review of Global 
Defense Posture Report.--The Appropriations Committees agree 
that the GAO review of the status of the Defense Department's 
Global Defense Posture should be submitted to the Committees on 
Appropriations of both Houses of Congress no later than April 
15, 2008.
    Failure to Comply With Report Deadlines.--The 
Appropriations Committees note the Department of Defense's 
failure to comply with deadlines for several reports directed 
by the Committees on Appropriations of both Houses of Congress. 
These deadlines have passed without the reports being 
delivered, or even notice from the Department as to why it has 
been unable to meet the deadlines. Some of these reports are 
merely collections of data that are readily available. The 
Appropriations Committees find this delay unacceptable. These 
reports are directed to ensure proper congressional oversight 
and to inform congressional decisions on the Department's 
budget requests. The Department of Defense is directed to 
submit all reports required by House Report 110-186 and Senate 
Report 110-85 that are currently overdue, or an explanation of 
why these reports have not been delivered along with the 
expected date of delivery, no later than seven days after the 
enactment of this Act. The Department and the services are also 
directed to meet future reporting deadlines. If future 
deadlines are not met, the Department or service shall submit 
an explanation for the failure to deliver and the expected date 
of delivery no later than seven days after the deadline.
    Incrementally Funded Projects.--The Appropriations 
Committees note that the Administration requested several large 
military construction projects that can be incrementally 
funded, but were instead submitted as large single-year 
requests, in accordance with a directive from the Office of 
Management and Budget to the Department of Defense to severely 
restrict the use of incremental funding for military 
construction. The Committees on Appropriations of both Houses 
of Congress have previously notified the Administration that 
they reserve the prerogative to provide incremental funding 
where appropriate, in accordance with authorizing legislation. 
The Appropriations Committees continue to believe that military 
construction projects should be fully funded or separated into 
stand-alone phases when practical. In some cases, however, 
incremental funding makes fiscal and programmatic sense. The 
Appropriations Committees have therefore agreed that the 
following projects will be incrementally funded: Fuel Storage 
Facilities, Point Loma, California; Southern Command 
Headquarters, Miami, Florida; Submarine Drive-in Magnetic 
Silencing Facility, Pearl Harbor, Hawaii; SOF Operations 
Facility, Dam Neck Annex, Virginia; Kilo Wharf, Naval Base 
Guam; and Brigade Operations Support Facility and Brigade 
Barracks/Community Facility, Vicenza, Italy.
    Guam Master Plan.--The Appropriations Committees agree that 
the massive construction program planned to expand the presence 
of the U.S. military on Guam presents a major challenge to the 
Department of Defense, and requires a well-planned execution 
strategy. However, the Appropriations Committees are concerned 
that the Senate provision requiring the Secretary of Defense to 
submit a master plan for Guam by December 29, 2007, does not 
give the Department adequate time to complete the plan, 
particularly in view of the ongoing environmental assessments 
being conducted on Guam. The Appropriations Committees do not 
concur with the Senate position and instead direct the 
Secretary of Defense to submit to the Committees on 
Appropriations of both Houses of Congress no later than 
September 15, 2008, a report on the Department's planning 
efforts for Guam. The report should identify in detail the size 
and makeup of the U.S. military forces to be located on Guam, 
the number of dependents expected to accompany those forces, 
and the infrastructure required to support the troops and their 
families. The report should also outline the Department's plan 
to accomplish the projected level of construction associated 
with the build-up, within the constrained construction capacity 
of Guam, and the infrastructure required to support the 
anticipated increase in the construction workforce. The 
Department is further directed to provide an updated funding 
plan for both the military and family housing construction, and 
the associated Defense education and Defense logistics 
infrastructure needed, and a status report on the availability 
and funding mechanism of the $6.1 billion that the Government 
of Japan has agreed to contribute.

Department of Defense Base Closure Account 1990, instead of 
$270,689,000 as proposed by the House and $320,689,000 as 
proposed by the Senate. The amended bill includes an increase 
of $75,000,000 above the budget request, of which $25,000,000 
is provided for the Army and $50,000,000 is provided for the 
Navy. The Appropriations Committees direct the Army and Navy to 
submit an expenditure plan for the additional funds provided no 
later than 30 days following the enactment of this Act. The 
Committees further direct the services to notify the Committees 
on Appropriations of both Houses of Congress 14 days prior to 
obligating an amount for a site or closure package that exceeds 
or reduces the amount identified for that site or closure 
package in the fiscal year 2008 budget submission (plus 
additional funds as identified by the expenditure plan) by 20 
percent or $2,000,000, whichever is less. This direction shall 
not apply to sites or closure packages for which the requested 
amount is less than $5,000,000.

            Department of Defense Base Closure Account 2005

    The amended bill appropriates $7,235,591,000 for the 
Department of Defense Base Closure Account 2005, instead of 
$8,174,315,000 as proposed by both the House and the Senate. 
The decrease from the request is a general reduction. The funds 
requested for this account, which are appropriated by lump sum, 
are allocated among 189 BRAC projects earmarked for funding by 
the President for fiscal year 2008. The requested projects and 
related planning and design total $6,419,748,000. Additional 
funding provided in this account is for environmental, 
operations and maintenance, personnel, and related programs 
associated with the BRAC process. A detailed listing of the 
individual projects earmarked for funding by the President is 
provided in Senate report 110-85, and a list of the President's 
earmarks by BRAC closure package is provided in House report 
110-186.
    The Appropriations Committees note that it is the practice 
of the Committees to not add congressional earmarks for BRAC 
construction because of the complicated and inter-related 
nature of the BRAC construction program. The Appropriations 
Committees reaffirm this policy, and have included no 
congressionally directed earmarks in the BRAC 2005 account.

                TITLE II--DEPARTMENT OF VETERANS AFFAIRS


                       Items of General Interest

    Veterans Rights and Feedback.--The Appropriations 
Committees are encouraged by the progress the Department has 
made in providing veterans with the opportunity to offer 
feedback and obtain assistance through the Internet and the use 
of toll-free telephone numbers. The Appropriations Committees 
agree there are additional measures the Department should take 
to enhance these programs and to ensure that the Secretary, the 
Under Secretary for Health, the Under Secretary for Benefits, 
and the Office of Inspector General are kept informed of the 
feedback that is provided. The amended bill includes sufficient 
funding to ensure the Department is able to provide a clearly 
marked, direct link that allows veterans to seek assistance and 
provide feedback on the Veterans Affairs Internet home page; 
provide a separate toll-free telephone number for the Veterans 
Health Administration and for the Veterans Benefits 
Administration that allows a veteran to check on his or her 
eligibility, seek assistance in obtaining services and/or 
resolving difficulties, and provide feedback; and provide the 
Secretary, the Under Secretary for Health, the Under Secretary 
for Benefits, and the Office of Inspector General with a report 
that informs them of the types of issues that are being 
addressed through these systems so that they may more easily 
identify evolving problems and take early corrective action. 
The Secretary is directed to report to the Committees on 
Appropriations of both Houses of Congress by February 1, 2008, 
on the actions that have been taken to implement this 
direction. Further, the Under Secretary for Health is directed 
to report to the Committees on Appropriations of both Houses of 
Congress by March 3, 2008, on the actions that have been taken 
to ensure that patient advocate contact information, including 
a telephone number, is clearly posted in all clinics, on all 
inpatient wards, and at the entrance of every Veterans Health 
Administration facility.
    Services for Women Veterans.--The Appropriations Committees 
agree more can be done by the Department to refine its 
programs, services and outreach efforts in order to inform 
women veterans of their eligibility status and improve their 
access to services. While the amended bill does not retain the 
provision proposed by the House under General Operating 
Expenses, the amended bill includes sufficient funds for the 
operation of both the Advisory Committee on Women Veterans and 
the Center for Women Veterans. Additionally, the Appropriations 
Committees direct the Department to report to the Committees on 
Appropriations of both Houses of Congress by February 1, 2008, 
on the actions that have been taken to implement the 
recommendations of the Advisory Committee on Women Veterans 
2006 Report. The Appropriations Committees further direct the 
Government Accountability Office (GAO) to report to the 
Committees on Appropriations of both Houses of Congress by 
September 1, 2008, an assessment of the adequacy of mental 
health services provided by the Departments of Veterans Affairs 
to women veterans.
    Reprogrammings.--The Appropriations Committees would like 
to emphasize that reprogrammings permitted by this Act are to 
be transmitted to Congress in a timely manner.
    Quarterly Financial Report.--The quarterly financial report 
required by this Act shall contain, at a minimum, both the 
planned and actual expenditure rates, unobligated balances, 
potential financial shortfalls, any transfers between major 
accounts (medical services, medical administration, and medical 
facilities), and status of any equipment or non-recurring 
maintenance funds--including whether they have been used to pay 
for operating expenses. In addition, the service portion of the 
report will contain, at a minimum, the time required for new 
patients to get their first appointment, the time required for 
established patients to get their next appointment, and the 
number of unique veterans and patients being served. Each 
report should address data for the system total and for each 
VISN. Further, the Appropriations Committees direct that the 
Department include progress reports on the revision of the 
International Classification of Diseases-9th Revision (ICD-9) 
codes with respect to Traumatic Brain Injury.
    Contracting Out.--The Appropriations Committees note that 
the competition requirement provided in this Act already 
applies to the Department of Veterans Affairs. For any function 
performed by more than ten employees, the Department, like 
other agencies covered by this competition requirement, must 
conduct a public-private competition, involving both a Most 
Efficient Organization plan and a Minimum Cost Differential, 
before that function can be converted to contractor 
performance. Unless specifically excluded, the Department of 
Veterans Affairs would be held to any successor public-private 
competition requirements included in legislation, as well as 38 
U.S.C. 8110(a)(5).

                    Veterans Benefits Administration


                       COMPENSATION AND PENSIONS

                     (INCLUDING TRANSFER OF FUNDS)

    The amended bill appropriates $41,236,322,000 for 
Compensation and Pensions as proposed by both the House and the 
Senate. Of the amount provided, not more than $28,583,000 is to 
be transferred to General Operating Expenses and Medical 
Administration for reimbursement of necessary expenses in 
implementing provisions of title 38.

                         READJUSTMENT BENEFITS

    The amended bill appropriates $3,300,289,000 for 
Readjustment Benefits as proposed by both the House and the 
Senate.

                   VETERANS INSURANCE AND INDEMNITIES

    The amended bill appropriates $41,250,000 for Veterans 
Insurance and Indemnities as proposed by both the House and the 
Senate.

         VETERANS HOUSING BENEFIT PROGRAM FUND PROGRAM ACCOUNT

    The amended bill appropriates such sums as may be necessary 
for costs associated with direct and guaranteed loans for the 
Veterans Housing Benefit Program Fund Program Account as 
proposed by both the House and the Senate. The amended bill 
limits obligations for direct loans to not more than $500,000 
and provides that $154,562,000 shall be available for 
administrative expenses. The amended bill does not include a 
transfer provision as proposed by the House.

            VOCATIONAL REHABILITATION LOANS PROGRAM ACCOUNT

                     (INCLUDING TRANSFER OF FUNDS)

    The amended bill appropriates $71,000 for the cost of 
direct loans from the Vocational Rehabilitation Loans Program 
Account as proposed by both the House and the Senate, plus 
$311,000 to be transferred to and merged with General Operating 
Expenses. The amended bill provides for a direct loan 
limitation of $3,287,000 as proposed by both the House and the 
Senate.

          NATIVE AMERICAN VETERAN HOUSING LOAN PROGRAM ACCOUNT

    The amended bill appropriates $628,000 for administrative 
expenses of the Native American Veteran Housing Loan Program 
Account as proposed by both the House and the Senate. The 
amended bill does not include a transfer provision or loan 
limitation as proposed by the House.

  GUARANTEED TRANSITIONAL HOUSING LOANS FOR HOMELESS VETERANS PROGRAM 
                                ACCOUNT

    The amended bill provides up to $750,000 of the funds 
available in General Operating Expenses and Medical 
Administration to carry out the Guaranteed Transitional Housing 
Loans for Homeless Veterans Program Account as proposed by both 
the House and the Senate.

                     Veterans Health Administration

    Health Care Sharing Incentive Fund.--The amended bill 
includes language to allow a minimum of $15,000,000, to be 
transferred to the Health Care Sharing Incentive Fund to 
facilitate collaboration between the Departments of Defense and 
Veterans Affairs. The Appropriations Committees agree the most 
important area for collaboration and investment between these 
departments is to ensure a seamless transition for our 
veterans. While the Appropriations Committees do not intend to 
preclude the use of this fund for any joint project, the 
Committees strongly urge that priority for funding be given to 
the implementation of recommendations of the Report on the 
President's Commission on Care for America's Returning Wounded 
Warriors, July 2007. The Appropriations Committees further urge 
the Departments of Defense and Veterans Affairs to seek every 
opportunity to partner to improve the continuity of care for 
our veterans through joint clinics; joint Centers of Excellence 
for Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) and Traumatic Brain 
Injury (TBI); joint research and/or treatment; and the 
development of joint clinical practice guidelines for 
polytrauma injury, traumatic brain injury (to include 
diagnostics), blast injury, mental health/PTSD, burn, and 
amputee patients based on evidence based medicine.
    Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI).--Current data make it 
difficult for the Department to provide budget information on 
TBI as a Select Program. The Appropriations Committees are 
encouraged to learn the Department is working with the National 
Center for Health Statistics and the Department of Defense to 
refine current International Classification of Diseases-9th 
Revision (ICD-9) codes to better reflect the TBI patient 
population within the Departments of Defense and Veterans 
Affairs. The Department of Veterans Affairs is directed to 
include an update of progress on the revision of the ICD-9 
codes for TBI within the quarterly reports provided to Congress 
during fiscal year 2008. The Department of Veterans Affairs is 
also directed to include TBI as a Select Program within the 
Medical Services account in the fiscal year 2009 budget 
submission and all future budget submissions thereafter.
    Level I Polytrauma Centers and Centers of Excellence on 
Mental Health and Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD).--The 
Appropriations Committees agree that every effort must be made 
to ensure that the Level I polytrauma centers and the Centers 
of Excellence on Mental Health and PTSD are resourced to 
provide the very best in medical care to our veterans who have 
suffered multiple trauma injuries or require mental health 
services. The amended bill has increased funding within the 
Veterans Health Administration accounts to ensure that the 
current Level I polytrauma centers and the Centers of 
Excellence on Mental Health and PTSD will be fully staffed and 
operational in fiscal year 2008.
    Credentialing and Privileging in Rural Health Care 
Facilities. The Appropriations Committees are concerned about 
potential quality of care issues that may exist in rural VA 
medical facilities, including the qualifications of medical 
professionals. The Appropriations Committees direct the 
Government Accountability Office to assess the standards that 
are being followed in rural VA hospitals, including the 
consistency with which VA standards are being applied across 
urban and rural facilities.

                            MEDICAL SERVICES

                     (INCLUDING TRANSFER OF FUNDS)

    The amended bill appropriates $29,104,220,000 for Medical 
Services, instead of $29,031,400,000 as proposed by the House 
and $28,979,220,000 as proposed by the Senate. Additionally, 
the Senate had proposed an additional $125,000,000 in section 
230 of the administrative provisions.
    Of the amount provided, $1,350,000,000 is available for 
obligation until September 30, 2009 as proposed by the Senate, 
instead of $1,100,000,000 as proposed by the House. The 
Appropriations Committees also agree that the Department shall 
spend not less than $2,900,000,000 for specialty mental health 
services as proposed by the House and not less than 
$130,000,000 for the homeless grants and per diem program.
    The amended bill includes a net increase of $1,936,549,000 
above the budget request in order to address shortfalls 
anticipated in the Department's projection of health care 
demand and to address the Department's failure to adjust the 
beneficiary travel reimbursement rate despite consistently 
rising gasoline prices. The funding provided includes a 5.5 
percent increase for workload and a 4.45 percent increase for 
inflation which the Appropriations Committees believe is 
necessary to ensure that sufficient funding is available to 
maintain services at their current level. The amended bill also 
includes an additional $125,000,000 to increase the beneficiary 
travel reimbursement mileage rate to 28.5 cents per mile; an 
additional $70,000,000 for substance abuse services; an 
additional $12,500,000 for expanded outpatient services for the 
blind; an additional $15,000,000 for Vet Centers; and provides 
sufficient funding to allow for additional personnel for the 
HUD-Veterans Affairs Supportive Housing Program to address any 
increase in the number of vouchers offered and directs the 
Department to increase the number of case workers as necessary 
to accommodate the increase in vouchers.
    Mental Health and Substance Abuse.--The Appropriations 
Committees are concerned mental health and substance abuse 
services were not sufficiently addressed within the fiscal year 
2008 budget submission which includes a reduction in the number 
of inpatient beds for psychiatric care and an anticipated 
increase of less than one percent for substance abuse services. 
The Appropriations Committees believe these projections are 
unrealistic and have increased funding within the Medical 
Services account in order to increase access to substance abuse 
services; ensure that adequate inpatient psychiatric care is 
maintained; and to allow the Department to pursue all 
opportunities to improve access to mental health services for 
all veterans. To this end, the Department is directed to re-
examine the policy for a reduction in psychiatric inpatient 
care, taking into account the needs of returning Operation 
Enduring Freedom and Operation Iraqi Freedom (OEF/OIF) veterans 
and the recommendations of OIG Report: Implementing VHA's 
Mental Health Strategic Plan Initiatives for Suicide 
Prevention, May 10, 2007, and is further directed to report to 
the Committees on Appropriations of both Houses of Congress by 
February 29, 2008, the findings of this review and what 
additional resources have been utilized to ensure that adequate 
inpatient care is available. Further, the Appropriations 
Committees direct the Department not to reduce the number of 
inpatient psychiatric beds at any facility that currently has a 
waiting list. Additionally, the Department is directed to 
report to the Committees on Appropriations of both Houses of 
Congress by February 1, 2008, on its plan to better utilize all 
opportunities to improve access to mental health services for 
all veterans. This report should include, but not be limited 
to, the Department's plan to better utilize the services of the 
Community Mental Health Centers; implementation of peer 
training programs; additional fee-basis access to local mental 
health providers; mobile Vet Centers; and the development of 
Internet based services like the Network of Care for Mental 
Health recommended in the President's New Freedom Commission on 
Mental Health.
    HIV/AIDS Among Veterans.--The Appropriations Committees 
concur with the Senate's recommendations on the VA health care 
system's HIV testing policy guidelines and direct the 
Department to submit a progress report to the Committees on 
Appropriations of both Houses of Congress by January 30, 2008.
    Access to Medical Care in Remote Rural Areas.--The 
Appropriations Committees direct the Secretary of Veterans 
Affairs to report to the Committees on Appropriations of both 
Houses of Congress not later than six months after the date of 
the enactment of this Act, a description of: the unique 
challenges and costs faced by veterans in remote rural areas of 
contiguous and non-contiguous States when obtaining medical 
services from the Department of Veterans Affairs, and the need 
to improve access to locally administered care for veterans who 
reside in remote rural areas. The report should also identify 
the need to fund alternative sources of medical services in 
areas where facilities of the Department of Veterans Affairs 
are not accessible to veterans without leaving such areas; and 
in cases in which receipt of medical services by a veteran in a 
facility of the Department requires transportation of such 
veteran by air due to geographic and infrastructural 
constraints. The report should also contain an assessment of 
the potential for increasing local access to medical services 
for veterans in remote rural areas of contiguous and non-
contiguous States through strategic partnerships with other 
government and local private health care providers.

                         MEDICAL ADMINISTRATION

    The amended bill appropriates $3,517,000,000 for Medical 
Administration, instead of $3,510,600,000 as proposed by the 
House and $3,642,000,000 as proposed by the Senate.
    Office of Rural Health.--The Appropriations Committees 
agree the Office of Rural Health is vital to ensuring that 
equal access to health care is provided to all of our returning 
Reserve and National Guard veterans. While the amended bill 
does not earmark a specific amount for the office, the 
Appropriations Committees have provided sufficient funding 
within Medical Administration to ensure a robust Office of 
Rural Health. The Appropriations Committees strongly encourage 
the Department to make full use of this office and direct the 
Secretary to submit a report to the Committees on 
Appropriations of both Houses of Congress on the actions that 
have been taken to improve access to health in rural areas by 
February 1, 2008.

                           MEDICAL FACILITIES

    The amended bill appropriates $4,100,000,000 for Medical 
Facilities as proposed by the House, instead of $4,092,000,000 
as proposed by the Senate. The amended bill also includes 
language allowing $350,000,000 of the funds to be available 
until September 30, 2009, as proposed by the Senate, instead of 
$250,000,000 as proposed by the House. The amended bill further 
specifies that $325,000,000 for non-recurring maintenance shall 
be allocated in a manner not subject to the Veterans Equitable 
Resource Allocation model, instead of $300,000,000 as proposed 
by the House and $350,000,000 as proposed by the Senate. The 
Appropriations Committees are in agreement that the funding 
provided above the budget request shall be used to address both 
facility condition assessment deficiencies and other essential 
requirements.
    Non-Recurring Maintenance.--The Appropriations Committees 
remain concerned that the Department is not adequately 
addressing specific issues regarding obligation of non-
recurring maintenance (NRM) funds raised in a May 16, 2007, GAO 
report. The Appropriations Committees fully expect that by 
fiscal year 2009 the Department will be obligating not more 
than twenty percent of its annual allocation of NRM funds in 
the last two months of the fiscal year. By May 16, 2008, the 
Department shall submit to the Committees on Appropriations of 
both Houses of Congress a report outlining these management 
objectives and a business plan to reach that goal.
    Community Based Outpatient Clinics.--The Appropriations 
Committees direct the Department to provide the Committees on 
Appropriations of both Houses of Congress with a report on the 
actual number of Community Based Outpatient Clinics (CBOC) 
opened in fiscal year 2007 and the planned CBOC activations in 
fiscal year 2008. In addition, the Appropriations Committees 
further direct the Department to examine the need for, and 
report on the feasibility of and/or plans for clinics in the 
following locations: El Centro, California; rural Colorado; 
Brandon, Florida; Statesboro, Georgia; Belleville, Illinois; 
Moline, Illinois; Whiteside County, Illinois; Plymouth, 
Massachusetts; Dover-Foxcroft, Maine; Houlton, Maine; Lewiston-
Auburn, Maine; Plattsburg, New York; Riverhead, New York;

                    MEDICAL AND PROSTHETIC RESEARCH

    The amended bill appropriates $480,000,000 for Medical and 
Prosthetic Research as proposed by the House, instead of 
$500,000,000 as proposed by the Senate.

                    National Cemetery Administration

    The amended bill appropriates $195,000,000 for the National 
Cemetery Administration, instead of $170,000,000 as proposed by 
the House and $217,709,000 as proposed by the Senate. Of the 
amount provided, $20,000,000 is available until September 30, 
2009, instead of $7,800,000 as proposed by the House and 
$25,000,000 as proposed by the Senate. The amount provided 
includes $900,000 from the Information Technology Systems 
account which was erroneously transferred during the recent 
reorganization of information technology programs.
    The Appropriations Committees have provided $28,191,000 in 
additional funding for the National Cemetery Administration to 
correct gravesite deficiencies at VA's national cemeteries, 
including those identified in the 2002 Millennium Act report to 
Congress.These repairs include gravesite renovation projects to 
replace turf, repair sunken graves, and raise, realign and 
clean headstones.

                      Departmental Administration


                       GENERAL OPERATING EXPENSES

    The amended bill appropriates $1,605,000,000 for General 
Operating Expenses, instead of $1,598,500,000 as proposed by 
the House and $1,612,031,000 as proposed by the Senate. The 
amended bill provides not less than $1,327,001,000 for the 
Veterans Benefits Administration, instead of $1,324,957,000 as 
proposed by the House and $1,329,044,000 as proposed by the 
Senate. Of the amount provided, $75,000,000 is available for 
obligation until September 30, 2009, as proposed by both the 
House and the Senate.
    The amended bill also provides for a limitation on the 
purchase of passenger motor vehicles for use in operation by 
the Veterans Benefits Administration in Manila, Philippines.
    The amended bill does not include language as proposed by 
the House, which would have provided $2,000,000 for the 
Advisory Committee on Women Veterans. This issue is addressed 
in the Departmental overview section of this explanatory 
statement.
    Funding Increases.--The Appropriations Committees agree to 
provide an increase of $133,163,000 for General Operating 
Expenses when compared to the President's budget request. The 
Appropriations Committees agree to provide $124,219,000 for the 
hiring of additional claims processors. Based upon data 
provided by the Department to the Committees on Appropriations 
of both Houses of Congress in response to reporting 
requirements included in the report accompanying Public Law 
110-28, the cost per new hire will enable the Department to 
hire more than 1,800 new claims processors with the funding 
provided. In addition, the Appropriations Committees have 
provided $2,000,000 for the leasing of office space to house 
these new employees. As the Department experiences an increase 
in the number of claims being filed, as well as an increase in 
the number of appeals, both the Board of Veterans Appeals and 
the Office of General Counsel will require additional personnel 
to handle these appeals. Therefore, the Appropriations 
Committees have provided an increase of $3,724,000 for the 
Board of Veterans Appeals and $3,220,000 for the Office of 
General Counsel.

                     INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY SYSTEMS

    The amended bill appropriates $1,966,465,000 for 
Information Technology Systems, instead of $1,859,217,000 as 
proposed by the House and $1,898,000,000 as proposed by the 
Senate. The amended bill directs the Department to submit an 
expenditure plan to the Committees on Appropriations of both 
Houses of Congress within 30 days of enactment as proposed by 
the House, instead of 60 days of enactment as proposed by the 
Senate.
    The amount provided includes a reduction of $1,100,000 
which has been transferred to the Office of Inspector General. 
The Appropriations Committees have included an increase of 
$39,683,000 for computers and other information technology 
needs associated with the increase in claims processors for the 
Veterans Benefits Administration and for increased staff in 
other offices related to claims processing. Additionally, the 
Appropriations Committees agree to provide $8,000,000 for an 
insurance card buffer system and $8,000,000 for the Veterans 
Health Administration Chief Logistics Office information 
technology support. Both of these program shortfalls were 
identified by the Department subsequent to completion of the 
House and Senate action on their respective appropriations 
bills. The Appropriations Committees have also included 
$10,200,000 for the information technology costs associated 
with activation of new community based outpatient clinics, an 
expense that was underfunded in the budget submission.
    On September 6, 2007, the Secretary of Veterans Affairs 
informed the Committees on Appropriations of both Houses of 
Congress of his intention to reorganize the information 
technology development functions within the Department of 
Veterans Affairs. The budget request for Information Technology 
Systems included a consolidation of all payroll-associated 
costs for operations and maintenance under the Information 
Technology account. The amended bill reflects this 
consolidation; however, the Appropriations Committees direct 
the VA to track payroll and non-pay costs separately in future 
budget submissions. In addition, to further the Department's 
consolidation objective, the Appropriations Committees have 
agreed to include an increase of $42,465,000 to preclude the 
need to transfer funds from the General Operating Expenses, 
Medical Services, Medical Facilities, and Medical and 
Prosthetic Research accounts.
    The Appropriations Committees are in agreement that the 
Department should take all steps necessary to ensure that the 
entire information technology reorganization has no negative 
impact on providing vital services to veterans, nor should it 
impede the ability of health care providers and researchers in 
carrying out their duties.
    Electronic Medical Record.--The Appropriations Committees 
direct the Departments of Defense and Veterans Affairs to issue 
a joint report to the Committees on Appropriations of both 
Houses of Congress (subcommittees on Defense and Military 
Construction/Veterans Affairs) by April 1, 2008, detailing the 
actions being taken by each Department to achieve an 
interoperable electronic medical record (EMR) system. The 
report should include, but not be limited to, a detailed 
spending plan for the use of funding provided in the Joint 
Incentive Fund as well as identify all other ongoing and 
planned projects and programs within each Department addressing 
interoperability, including funding provided. The report should 
clearly identify the Departments' goals for interoperability 
and how these projects and programs will address those goals.

                      OFFICE OF INSPECTOR GENERAL

    The amended bill appropriates $80,500,000 for the Office of 
Inspector General, instead of $76,500,000 as proposed by the 
House and $88,700,000 as proposed by the Senate. Of the amount 
provided, $5,000,000 is available for obligation until 
September 30, 2009, instead of $3,630,000 as proposed by both 
the House and the Senate.
    The amended bill includes an additional $7,901,000 above 
the budget request for the Office of Inspector General. The 
additional funding includes $1,100,000 for information 
technology systems unique to the Office of Inspector General, 
as well as additional funding for new positions so that the 
Inspector General can expand and improve its independent 
oversight in critical areas, including transitional health care 
for veterans returning from the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan 
and Department of Veterans Affairs information technology 
programs.

                      CONSTRUCTION, MAJOR PROJECTS

    The amended bill appropriates $1,069,100,000 for 
Construction, Major Projects, instead of $1,410,800,000 as 
proposed by the House and $727,400,000 as proposed by the 
Senate. The amended bill includes a provision proposed by the 
House which places a limitation on the use of funds related to 
18 facilities on the Capital Asset Realignment for Enhanced 
Services list requiring further study. The Senate bill 
contained no similar provision.
    The Appropriations Committees are aware that the 
Department's budget request of $40,285,000 for the Advanced 
Planning Fund will not be sufficient to address projects on 
Department's 5-Year Capital Plan for fiscal years 2009 through 
2012. Therefore, the Appropriations Committees have included an 
additional $9,200,000 in funding to begin the preliminary 
planning process to address identified construction needs.
    Additionally, the Appropriations Committees agree to 
provide $322,500,000 for allocation to previously appropriated 
major construction projects, including necessary cost 
adjustments. The Department is directed to provide the 
Committees on Appropriations of both Houses of Congress with a 
detailed list of how these funds will be allocated, within 60 
days of enactment of this Act.
    New Orleans Veterans Medical Center.--The Appropriations 
Committees direct the Secretary of Veterans Affairs to report 
to the Committees on Appropriations of both Houses of Congress 
not later than October 1 and April 1 of each year, on the 
current status of the reconstruction of the Department of 
Veterans Affairs Medical Center in New Orleans, Louisiana. Each 
report shall include the status of any ongoing environmental 
assessments, the status of any current construction, and an 
assessment of the adequacy of funding necessary to complete the 
reconstruction. If reconstruction of the Medical Center is 
subject to any major delay, the report shall include a 
description of each such delay, an explanation for each such 
delay, and a description of actions being taken or planned to 
address the delay. Additionally, within 60 days of enactment of 
this Act, the Department shall report to the Committees on 
Appropriations of both Houses of Congress as to whether the New 
Orleans Medical Center should be designated as a Level I 
polytrauma rehabilitation center or a polytrauma network site.

infrastructure improvements for the National Cemetery 
Administration and not less than $8,000,000 shall be for minor

at all cemeteries and memorials for which the Commission is 
responsible.

additional resources for the Court in recognition of the 
probability that the Court's workload will increase as the 
Department of Veterans Affairs experiences a significant 
increase in disability claims being processed. The increase in 
funding will provide the Court with sufficient resources to 
hire two additional magistrate judges, three staff attorneys 
and clerical staff.

the AFRH to submit a report to the Committees on Appropriations 
of both Houses of Congress no later than March 1, 2008, 
detailing the planned on-site services and how the agency could 
implement the principles of the Green House approach on the

House, instead of $5,900,000 as proposed by the Senate. The 
funding is to be used for a study of funding sources for the 
Trust Fund to determine the long-term viability of the Trust 
Fund and the potential need for a recurring General Fund 
Payment to the Trust Fund.

                        Administrative Provision

    The amended bill does not include an administrative 
provision as proposed by the Senate (Sec. 301) which would have 
prohibited the American Battle Monuments Commission from making 
a payment to the Capital Security Cost Sharing program.

                      TITLE IV--GENERAL PROVISIONS

    The amended bill includes section 401 as proposed by both 
the House and the Senate prohibiting the obligation of funds in 
the Act beyond the current fiscal year unless expressly so 
provided.
    The amended bill includes section 402 as proposed by both 
the House and the Senate requiring pay raises to be absorbed 
within the levels appropriated in the Act.
    The amended bill includes section 403 as proposed by both 
the House and the Senate prohibiting the use of the funds in 
this Act for programs, projects or activities not in compliance 
with Federal law relating to risk assessment, the protection of 
private property rights, or unfunded mandates.
    The amended bill includes section 404 as proposed by both 
the House and the Senate prohibiting the use of funds in the 
Act to support or defeat legislation pending before Congress.
    The amended bill includes section 405 as proposed by the 
Senate encouraging all Departments to expand their use of ``E-
Commerce''. The House bill contained a similar provision, but 
was more directive.
    The amended bill includes section 406 as proposed by both 
the House and the Senate prohibiting the transfer of funds to 
any instrumentality of the United States Government without 
authority from an appropriations Act.
    The amended bill includes section 407 as proposed by both 
the House and the Senate specifying the congressional 
committees that are to receive all reports and notifications.
    The amended bill includes section 408 as proposed by the 
House directing the Congressional Budget Office to submit a 
report that projects the annual appropriations necessary for 
the Department of Veterans Affairs to continue providing health 
care to veterans. The Senate bill contained no similar 
provision.
    The amended bill includes section 409 as proposed by both 
the House and the Senate prohibiting the use of funds in the 
Act for any action that is related to or promotes the expansion 
of the boundaries or size of the Pinon Canyon Maneuver Site, 
Colorado.
    The amended bill includes section 410 as proposed by the 
Senate allowing the City of Aurora, Colorado to convey land to 
the United States to be used by the Department of Veterans 
Affairs for construction of a veterans' medical facility. The 
House bill contained no similar provision.
    The amended bill does not include a provision as proposed 
by the House (section 409) which would have prohibited the use 
of funds in this Act to purchase light bulbs unless they have 
the ``ENERGY STAR'' designation. The Senate bill contained no 
similar provision.
    The amended bill does not include a provision as proposed 
by the Senate (section 408) which would have required the 
Government Accountability Office to assess mental health care 
services for female servicemembers and veterans. This issue is 
addressed under the Department of Veterans Affairs in this 
explanatory statement. The House bill contained no similar 
provision.
    The amended bill does not include a provision, as proposed 
by the Senate (section 409) which would have prohibited the use 
of funds in the Act to enter into a contract or award a grant 
in an amount greater than $5,000,000 unless the contractor or 
grantee certifies in writing that certain Federal requirements 
have been met. The House bill contained no similar provision.
    The amended bill does not include a provision as proposed 
by the Senate (section 411) which would have appropriated 
$100,000,000, designated as an emergency requirement, for 
security and related costs associated with the Democratic 
National Convention and the Republican National Convention. The 
House bill contained no similar provision.
