                              Clerk's Note

    This committee print provides a compilation of the enacted 
text and applicable explanatory material for the Consolidated 
Appropriations Act, 2021 (H.R. 133, P.L. 116-260).
    The Act consists of 12 divisions related to regular annual 
Appropriations matters (divisions A through L). Division M 
contains the Coronavirus Response and Relief Supplemental 
Appropriations Act, 2021, which provides supplemental 
appropriations for fiscal year 2021. The Act also includes 19 
additional divisions largely unrelated to appropriations 
matters (divisions N through FF). This compilation includes 
only the 12 divisions related to regular appropriations matters 
(A through L). It also includes the front section of the Act, 
which contains provisions applicable to the entire Act.
    Divisions A through L are the products of negotiations 
between the House and Senate Appropriations Committees on final 
fiscal year 2021 appropriations for all 12 annual 
appropriations bills.
    The legislative text was submitted by Chairwoman Nita Lowey 
of the House Committee on Appropriations as a House amendment 
to the Senate amendment to an unrelated bill pending in the 
House, H.R. 133. Both the House and Senate agreed to the 
measure on December 21, 2020.\1\ The President signed the 
legislation on December 27, 2020 and it became Public Law 116-
260.
    Because an ``amendments-between-the-Houses'' process was 
used instead of a conference committee, there is no conference 
report and no ``joint Explanatory Statement of the managers'' 
for H.R. 133. An Explanatory Statement relating to the House 
amendment to H.R. 133 was filed by Chairwoman Lowey in the 
Congressional Record on December 21, 2020.\2\  Section 4 of the 
Act provides that this Explanatory Statement ``shall have the 
same effect with respect to the allocation of funds and 
implementation of divisions A through L of this Act as if it 
were a joint explanatory statement of a committee of 
conference.''
    For the convenience of users, the legislative text of each 
appropriations division is paired with the applicable section 
of the Explanatory Statement.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
    \1\ The House agreed to the amendment in two parts, first by a vote 
of 327-85 (Roll Call No. 250) on divisions B, C, E, and F and then on 
the remaining divisions by a vote of 359-53 (Roll Call No. 251). The 
Senate agreed to the amendment by a vote of 92-6 (Roll Call Vote No. 
289).

    \2\ The Explanatory Statement appears in Books III and IV of the 
December 21, 2020 Congressional Record. (See pages H7879-H8851).

Committee on Appropriations. The Statement appears on page H7879 of

       DIVISION A--AGRICULTURE, RURAL DEVELOPMENT, FOOD AND DRUG 
     ADMINISTRATION, AND RELATED AGENCIES APPROPRIATIONS ACT, 2021


                        CONGRESSIONAL DIRECTIVES

    The explanatory statement accompanying this division is 
approved and indicates congressional intent. Unless otherwise 
noted, the language set forth in House Report 116-446 carries 
the same weight as language included in this explanatory 
statement and should be complied with unless specifically 
addressed to the contrary in this explanatory statement. While 
some language is repeated for emphasis, it is not intended to 
negate the language referred to above unless expressly provided 
herein.
    In cases in which the House or this explanatory statement 
has directed the submission of a report, such report is to be 
submitted to both the House and Senate Committees on 
Appropriations no later than 60 days after enactment of this 
Act, unless otherwise directed.
    Hereafter, in division A of this statement, the term `the 
Committees' refers to the Committees on Appropriations of the 
House of Representatives and the Senate.
    For the appropriations provided by this Act and previous 
Acts, the departments and agencies funded by this agreement are 
reminded that the Committees use the definitions for transfer, 
reprogramming, and program, project, and activity as defined by 
the Government Accountability Office (GAO) in GAO-04-261SP 
Appropriations Law--Vol. I and GAO-05-734SP Budget Glossary.
    A transfer is the shifting of funds between appropriations. 
It applies to (1) transfers from one agency to another, (2) 
transfers from one account to another within the same agency, 
and (3) transfers to an interagency or intra-agency working 
fund. In each instance, statutory authority is required.
    Reprogramming is the utilization of funds in an 
appropriation account for purposes other than those 
contemplated at the time of appropriation. It is the shifting 
of funds from one object to another within an appropriation.
    A program, project, or activity (PPA) is an element within 
a budget account. PPAs are identified by reference to include 
the most specific level of budget items identified in the 
Agriculture, Rural Development, Food and Drug Administration, 
and Related Agencies Act, 2021, accompanying Committee reports, 
explanatory statements, and budget justifications. Program 
activity structures are intended to provide a meaningful 
representation of the operations financed by a specific budget 
account by project, activity, or organization.
    For fiscal year 2021, the Committees continue to include 
bill language requiring advanced notification of certain agency 
actions. Notification will be required at least 30 days in 
advance of any action if (1) a major capital investment is 
modified; (2) an office is realigned or reorganized; and (3) 
activities are carried out that were not described in the 
budget request.
    The agreement directs the Office of Budget and Program 
Analysis (OBPA) of the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) to 
provide an organizational chart for each agency funded by this 
Act to the division and subdivision level, as appropriate, by 
February 1, 2021. The agreement also directs the Food and Drug 
Administration (FDA) and the Farm Credit Administration (FCA) 
to provide an organizational chart of each agency respectively 
to the division and subdivision level, as appropriate, by 
February 1, 2021.
    Further, USDA and FDA should be mindful of Congressional 
authority to determine and set final funding levels for fiscal 
year 2022. Therefore, the agencies should not presuppose 
program funding outcomes and prematurely initiate action to 
redirect staffing prior to knowing final outcomes on fiscal 
year 2022 program funding. The agreement directs OBPA to 
provide the Committees with the number of staff years and 
employees on board for each agency funded by this Act on a 
monthly basis.
    The agreement notes that the explanatory statement 
accompanying the Commerce, Justice, Science, and Related 
Agencies Appropriations Act, 2021 directs the Attorney General 
to ensure implementation of evidence-based training programs on 
de-escalation and the use-of-force, as well as on police-
community relations, that are broadly applicable and scalable 
to all Federal law enforcement agencies. The agreement further 
notes that several agencies funded by this Act employ Federal 
law enforcement officers and are Federal Law Enforcement 
Training Centers partner organizations. The agreement directs 
such agencies to consult with the Attorney General regarding 
the implementation of these programs for their law enforcement 
officers. The agreement further directs such agencies to brief 
the Committees on Appropriations on their efforts relating to 
such implementation no later than 90 days after consultation 
with the Attorney General. In addition, the agreement directs 
such agencies, to the extent that they are not already 
participating, to consult with the Attorney General and the 
Director of the FBI regarding participation in the National 
Use-of-Force Data Collection. The agreement further directs 
such agencies to brief the Committees on Appropriations, no 
later than 90 days after enactment of this Act, on their 
current efforts to so participate.

                   Processing, Research and Marketing


                        Office of the Secretary


                     (INCLUDING TRANSFERS OF FUNDS)

    The agreement provides $46,998,000 for the Office of the 
Secretary. This includes an increase of $500,000 for the 
Outreach and Assistance for Socially Disadvantaged Farmers and 
Ranchers and Veteran Farmers and Ranchers program. The 
agreement provides $1,000,000 for the Office of Tribal 
Relations.
    USDA is directed to provide a report on January 4, 2021 and 
May 18, 2021, on planned uses of funding under the authorities 
of Section 4 and Section 11 of the CCC Charter Act.
    The agreement does not include language related to 
symposia.
    There is concern that without consultation with or approval 
from the Committees, the Department changed the format of the 
Explanatory Notes for the fiscal year 2021 budget request. For 
fiscal year 2022 and future years, the Department is directed 
to present Explanatory Notes in a format consistent with the 
presentation used for the fiscal year 2020 Budget, with similar 
display and narrative and table of contents. The Explanatory 
Notes should also put the accounts in the same order as the 
accounts in the bill. Any deviations from that format are to be 
approved in advance by the Committees. The Department is 
strongly encouraged to improve the quality of its budget 
justifications.
    The agreement is aware of concerns that the interim final 
rule entitled ``Establishment of a Domestic Hemp Production 
Program'' published by the Department in the Federal Register 
on October 31, 2019 (84 Fed. Reg. 58522) may create compliance 
challenges for the regulated community by using sampling and 
testing protocols that require too short a timeframe between 
testing and harvest, failing to provide a lack of alternative 
to the use of Drug Enforcement Administration registered 
laboratories, requiring the conversion of THCA into delta-9 
THC, requiring a sampling of only flowering tops, and 
establishing an inflexible negligence threshold of 0.5 percent. 
The agreement directs USDA to ensure that any final rule is 
based on science, is in accordance with underlying law, and 
will ensure a fair and reasonable regulatory framework for 
commercial hemp production in the United States. In addition, 
the agreement encourages the Secretary to utilize the current 
research at the Agricultural Research Service and the Land-
Grant Universities partnering with the National Institute of 
Food and Agriculture to guide the hemp sampling and testing 
protocols.
    In addition, the USDA shall develop regulations, within 
existing authority, that protect the transportation, 
processing, sale, or use of hemp and in-process hemp extract, 
that may temporarily exceed a delta-9 THC concentration of 
0.3%, including in-process hemp extract that was: (1) produced 
from hemp that meets the definition of hemp under 7 U.S.C. 
Sec. 1639o; (2) cultivated in accordance with subtitle G of the 
Agricultural Marketing Act of 1946 [7 U.S.C. 1639o et seq.] (as 
added by section 10113 of the Agriculture Improvement Act of 
2018) or section 7606 of the Agricultural Act of 2014 [7 U.S.C. 
5940]; (3) not packaged as a finished product; and (4) not sold 
or offered for sale as a finished product to consumers.
    No later than 60 days after enactment, the Department is 
directed to submit an execution strategy for each new 
initiative funded in this Act and to submit quarterly reports 
on each initiative until it is fully implemented. This strategy 
should include, but is not limited to, the steps necessary to 
make funding available, the timeline thereof, targeted 
beneficiaries, and expected results.
    The agreement understands that complex problems affecting 
the health of humans, animals, and the environment are best 
solved through improved communication, cooperation, and 
collaborations. Within 120 days of enactment, the Secretary 
shall submit a report to the Committees detailing existing 
collaborative efforts between FDA, USDA, and other agencies to 
prevent and respond to zoonotic disease outbreaks in animals 
and humans. The report may include, but is not limited to, 
competitive research grant programs; training and support for 
scientists, first responders, or medical personnel; engagement 
of nongovernmental entities; and participation in international 
collaboration and research to assist in establishing a One 
Health program.
    Beginning with the fiscal year 2021 spending plans, USDA is 
directed to include for each program, project, or activity: (1) 
a comparison between the congressional budget justification 
funding levels, the most recent congressional directives or 
approved funding levels, and the funding levels proposed by the 
department or agency; and (2) a clear, concise, and informative 
description/justification. USDA is reminded of notification 
requirements, also included in Title VII, for all applicable 
changes.
    The agreement is aware of 57 outstanding reports overdue to 
the Committees from prior fiscal years. The Department is 
directed to include in its fiscal year 2022 Congressional 
Justification, as a single exhibit, a table listing all 
deliverables, with a column for due date if applicable. The 
agreement further directs the Department, through OBPA, to 
provide an update on all overdue reports and provide monthly 
updates thereafter.
    The Secretary is directed to provide a report, no later 
than March 1, 2021, on specific agency authorities and 
activities that could contribute to more robust solar power 
generation in rural areas, associated economic benefits for 
landowners and rural communities, and land use implications 
including wildlife habitat and soil and water quality. The 
Secretary should also outline opportunities for collaboration 
with the Department of Energy on this strategy.
    The agreement recognizes the recent enactment of a domestic 
ban on the slaughter, transportation, possession, purchase, and 
sale of dogs and cats for human consumption. The agreement 
urges the Secretary to work to move forward with an 
international agreement to ban the trade of dog and cat meat 
worldwide.
    The agreement is aware of informal collaborations among 
USDA agencies and State, local, and territorial governments in 
the insular Pacific to combat invasive species, protect local 
ecologies, and prevent the introduction of additional invasive 
pests to the U.S. mainland. The agreement urges the Secretary 
to move forward with formal memoranda of agreements.
    The agreement encourages the Secretary to study the usage 
and impacts of energy and water in hemp cultivation and 
controlled environment agriculture and to make recommendations 
on best practices and standards in both sectors.
    The agreement recognizes the importance of the temporary 
agricultural workers program in supporting U.S. agriculture and 
maintaining our food supply and urges the Secretary to 
coordinate with other relevant Departments to provide 
additional flexibilities to consulates and those involved with 
processing visas in a manner that protects public health while 
ensuring the visa application process moves forward.
    The agreement encourages agencies to disclose costs 
associated with analyses required by the National Environmental 
Policy Act (Public Law 91-190).
    The agreement is concerned about unfair wheat grading 
practices that negatively affect American wheat growers that 
export to Canada. Current Canadian grading automatically 
downgrades American wheat to the lowest quality designation 
while the U.S. grading system provides a fair examination for 
wheat imported from Canada. The agreement believes this 
discrepancy needs to be addressed to ensure U.S wheat growers 
are being treated fairly.
    The agreement understands the importance of the Hatch Act 
and the responsibility of federal employees to refrain from 
engaging in political activities while they are on the job. The 
agreement expects the Department to ensure that all employees 
are reminded of their obligations under the Hatch Act, 5 U.S.C. 
7323(a) and 7324(a), and any implications of violations 
thereto.
    The following table reflects the agreement:

  Office of the Under Secretary for Research, Education, and Economics

    The agreement provides $809,000 for the Office of the Under 
Secretary for Research, Education, and Economics.
    The agreement notes that Section 7132 of the 2018 Farm Bill 
directed the Office of the Chief Scientist to complete a 
strategic plan for the Agriculture Advanced Research and 
Development Authority (AGARDA) that demonstrates USDA's vision 
for AGARDA. The agreement directs USDA to complete this 
strategic plan not later than 180 days after the enactment of 
this Act. The plan should include a discussion of how AGARDA 
can work in collaboration with ongoing research programs 
operating in ARS and NIFA.
    The agreement notes statements made by the Department 
acknowledging the eligibility of researchers participating in 
hemp pilot programs, as defined by Section 7606 of the 
Agricultural Act of 2014 (Public Law 113-79). The agreement 
directs the Department to work with and inform stakeholders of 
this eligibility and to support hemp research, as authorized by 
Section 7606 of the Agricultural Act of 2014 (Public Law 113-
79) and Subtitle G of the Agricultural Marketing Act of 1946 (7 
U.S.C. 1621-1627, 1635-1638).
    The agreement directs the Secretary to prioritize research 
and work on pollinator health and to continue to gather data on 
an annual basis with respect to the losses of such colonies, 
rising input costs, and pollinators' overall economic value to 
the food economy.
    The agreement recognizes the important role silvopasture 
farming has in stimulating farmer income, local water 
retention, carbon sequestration, improved animal welfare 
conditions, and decreased erosion. The Secretary is encouraged 
to prioritize funding for silvopasture research and education. 
The agreement directs the Secretary to submit a report to the 
Committees, within 180 days of enactment of this Act, 
evaluating the impact of current educational outreach on farmer 
utilization of silvopasture practices.

                       Economic Research Service

    The agreement provides $85,476,000 for the Economic 
Research Service (ERS).
    The agreement recognizes the economic importance of 
international trade for U.S. agricultural commodities and 
believes that producers and markets would benefit from having 
access to additional data on the country of destination or 
origin of those commodities. The agreement directs ERS to 
report on a quarterly basis the top five agricultural commodity 
exports and imports by State and to identify the country of 
destination or origin of those commodities.
    The agreement maintains funding provided in fiscal year 
2020 for ERS to expand its current feed cost components surveys 
nationally.
    The agreement notes that the organic industry has grown at 
a tremendous rate over the past several years and accurate data 
for the production, pricing, and marketing of organic products 
is essential. The agreement encourages ERS to continue and 
expand the efforts relating to organic data analysis.
    The agreement recognizes that a lack of job opportunities 
in some rural areas is causing more workers to commute greater 
distances to urban areas from rural areas, but this increased 
commuting does not represent an increase in access to services 
for rural residents. Therefore, the agreement encourages ERS to 
continue to coordinate its research work with the Federal 
Office of Rural Health Policy to identify clear, consistent, 
and data-driven methods for accurately defining rural areas in 
the United States.

                National Agricultural Statistics Service

    For the National Agricultural Statistics Service (NASS), 
the agreement provides an appropriation of $183,921,000, of 
which $46,300,000 is for the Census of Agriculture. The 
agreement includes an increase of $500,000 for NASS to 
coordinate with AMS to expand organic price reporting and data 
collection and an increase of $500,000 to complete the 
Floriculture Crops Report. In compiling the report, NASS shall 
include data from Alaska.
    The agreement does not accept any proposed eliminations or 
reductions of ongoing activities, including Acreage, Crop 
Production and Grain Stocks; Barley acreage and production 
estimates; the Bee and Honey Program; the Chemical Use Data 
Series, including the collection of Fruit Chemical Use data and 
Vegetable Chemical Use data in alternating years; the 
Floriculture Crops Report; and Fruit and Vegetable Reports, 
including in-season forecasts for non-citrus fruit and tree nut 
crops such as pecans. The funding provided will allow NASS to 
resume or begin completion of these reports at the frequency 
levels assumed in fiscal year 2020. NASS is directed to resume 
all of these reports immediately upon enactment of this Act.

                     Agricultural Research Service


                         SALARIES AND EXPENSES

    The agreement provides $1,491,784,000 for the Agricultural 
Research Service (ARS), Salaries and Expenses.
    The agreement does not accept the President's budget 
request regarding the termination of research programs, 
redirections of research programs, or closure of research 
locations. The agreement expects extramural and intramural 
research to be funded at no less than the fiscal year 2020

    The agreement recognizes the importance of 1890s Land Grant 
Institutions and the collaborative relationships that have 
developed with ARS research facilities over the years. The 
agreement directs ARS to explore expanding partnerships with 
1890s Land Grant Institutions on ongoing and new research to 
ensure future beneficial collaborations.
    The agreement directs ARS to ensure that each of its 
facilities housing animals is adhering to the Animal Welfare 
Act at all times and to submit quarterly reports that include 
both all violations found by the Animal and Plant Health 
Inspection Service (APHIS) during that quarter and the specific 
actions that will be taken to prevent their recurrence.
    Cattle fever ticks pose a significant health threat to U.S. 
cattle and other species across the entire Southern region of 
the United States. The agreement encourages ARS to develop safe 
and effective compounds to combat cattle fever ticks. The 
agreement also directs ARS to coordinate development of its 
long-term cattle fever tick research program with APHIS efforts 
under the Cattle Fever Tick Eradication Program. The agreement 
provides no less than the fiscal year 2020 level for cattle 
fever tick research.
    The agreement encourages ARS and the Plant Genetics 
Resources Research Unit to partner with 1890 institutions that 
have existing institutional capacity on hemp germplasm 
research, education, and extension capabilities.
    The agreement notes ongoing efforts to develop a new 
strategic plan for the National Arboretum to carry out its 
missions of research, education, and public display gardens. 
The agreement expects that such plan will address necessary 
security and safety enhancements and new signage to enhance 
public access of the National Arboretum. In addition, the 
agreement directs ARS to explore entering into agreements with 
the District of Columbia and private sector partners to fulfill 
these public access improvements.
    The agreement directs ARS to continue its Atlantic salmon 
breeding and domestication work. The agreement also notes that 
the current ARS Atlantic salmon breeding program lacks a 
geneticist and supports efforts by the Department to address 
this need.
    The agreement understands the budget request proposes to 
close ARS laboratories across the country and does not support 
this proposal. The agreement directs ARS to fully staff 
laboratories even if the laboratory is proposed to be closed in 
the budget request.
    The agreement strongly encourages ARS to maintain its focus 
on agriculture-related legal issues within the National 
Agricultural Library. Agricultural-related legal issues are 
increasingly complex and the impact of these legal issues 
continues to broaden in scope. The agreement provides no less 
than the fiscal year 2020 level for the National Agricultural 
Library to support the Agricultural Law Information 
Partnership. The agreement does not concur with any reductions 
in administration budget requests and encourages ARS and the 
National Agricultural Library to engage in multi-year 
cooperative agreements with the Agricultural Law Information 
Partnership's partner institutions.
    The agreement encourages ARS to provide direct, place-based 
assistance to 1862 Institutions in States that do not have ARS 
facilities to address the research priorities of such States 
and directs ARS to submit a report on the prospective options 
of such assistance.
    The agreement is concerned about the threats invasive pests 
pose to the Pacific region, notably to agriculture, the 
economy, environment, human health, and national security. The 
agreement directs ARS to work with stakeholders, including 
holding a public meeting, in the Pacific region to assess 
options for combatting invasive pests. Options may include 
invasive pest biocontrol research and development facilities, 
including appropriate containment and rearing facilities.
    The Department is urged to use the Non-recurring Expense 
Fund for any additional NBAF needs.

                        BUILDINGS AND FACILITIES

    The agreement provides $35,700,000 for ARS Buildings and 
Facilities.
    The agreement notes the importance of ARS laboratories and 
the need for continued improvement. The agreement directs ARS 
to evaluate its capital asset requirements for necessary 
coordination with ongoing and emerging research opportunities. 
As part of this evaluation, ARS should provide opportunity for 
public comment in order to incorporate the priorities of all 
interested stakeholders, including ARS and other scientists, 
and users of ARS data. The agreement also notes the important 
collaboration between ARS and universities and the impact that 
aging facilities have on new research opportunities. The 
agreement directs ARS to submit a report that includes 
information on the current utilization of ARS facilities by 
universities and other cooperators, as well as the extent to 
which ARS is housed in cooperator facilities. In addition, the 
agreement recognizes the national importance of the research 
performed by ARS facilities that are not owned by ARS. Ongoing 
efforts to upgrade ARS facilities to be on par with the 
critical research done by the agency has not addressed ARS 
research done by ARS employees at non-ARS facilities. 
Accordingly, the agreement directs ARS to provide to the 
Committees not later than 180 days after the enactment of this 
Act a long-term, multi-year plan to guide capital asset and 
construction decisions for new agricultural research facilities 
focused on regionally and nationally important research topics, 
including plant breeding and genetics research and plant 
germplasm preservation.

               National Institute of Food and Agriculture


                   RESEARCH AND EDUCATION ACTIVITIES

    The agreement provides $992,642,000 for the National 
Institute of Food and Agriculture (NIFA), Research and 
Education Activities.
    The agreement recognizes the value of leading public and 
land-grant universities with unique high-throughput phenotyping 
and greenhouse facilities and expertise for plant science 
innovation, root and rhizome innovation, and food for health. 
The agreement provides funding for the Genome to Phenome 
program and encourages NIFA to support the development of tools 
and datasets that can be used across multiple crop species to 
develop advanced genome engineering tools for integrated 
optimization of crop yield and livestock feed for improved 
animal reproduction and nutrition and to mitigate environmental 
impacts from crop and livestock production. The agreement 
directs NIFA to use a competitive process to issue awards and 
urges additional focus on root stocks that increase carbon 
capture and can support grain crop covers.
    The agreement is concerned with the insufficient progress 
made in the Agriculture and Food Research Initiative (AFRI) to 
address conventional plant and animal breeding that can provide 
farmers with greater access to locally and regionally adapted 
cultivars. The agreement directs the agency to make regionally 
adapted, publicly held cultivar development a distinct funding 
priority within AFRI for fiscal year 2021 and directs the 
agency to take steps to improve its tracking of public cultivar 
projects within AFRI. NIFA is directed to submit a report to 
the Committees that describes the progress in meeting these two 
goals. In addition, the agreement notes that research that 
improves fertilizer use efficiency in crops is eligible for the 
AFRI program and encourages the Department to further address 
this important issue.
    The agreement provides funding to support research for 
alfalfa and forage to improve yields, conserve water, create 
new uses, and for other research areas holding the potential to 
advance the alfalfa seed and alfalfa forage industry.
    The agreement encourages NIFA to support research on algae 
and algae applications in agriculture, including new 
technologies and commercial markets for renewable and 
sustainable products derived from algae.
    The agreement encourages USDA to support aquaculture 
disease and vaccine research, including research on finfish 
vaccines and pathogens, which have the potential to accelerate 
the growth of sustainable U.S. aquaculture, reduce the trade 
deficit attributed to imported seafood, and reduce the pressure 
on overfished species.
    The agreement recognizes the importance of the domestic 
aquaculture industry to the U.S. economy and provides funding 
for aquaculture research to address issues related to genetics, 
disease, systems, and economics.
    The agreement is supportive of the activities carried out 
by the Binational Agricultural Research and Development (BARD) 
and recognizes that this collaboration is of mutual benefit to 
the United States and Israel. The agreement encourages NIFA to 
leverage all possible funding streams to support BARD research 
projects, which have contributed significantly to both the U.S. 
and Israeli economies.
    The agreement recognizes the need for research on 
eradicating livestock diseases, particularly bovine brucellosis 
and bovine tuberculosis, and encourages NIFA to make 
competitive grants available to study improved management tools 
for zoonotic livestock diseases with significant wildlife 
reservoirs.
    The agreement is concerned that large grocer recruitment 
remains a problem for many communities, particularly those 
experiencing higher rates of abandoned or vacant homes. The 
Department is encouraged to explore innovative approaches to 
address access to nutritional food options in urban food 
deserts, including the development of community-wide urban 
agriculture projects that assist in eliminating vacant 
properties while providing the communities with much-needed 
fresh produce.
    The agreement directs NIFA to work with research 
institutions to develop and refine predictive models and 
monitoring technologies for native and invasive pests for 
incorporation into integrated pest management programs for 
naturally seeded, native berry crops to increase the margin of 
food safety and product quality.
    The agreement directs NIFA to study the recent infestation 
of oak mites and focus on suppression and eradication 
possibilities.
    The agreement notes that the National Organic Standards 
Board (NOSB) has identified key organic research priorities. 
The agreement encourages NIFA to give strong consideration to 
these priorities when crafting the fiscal year 2021 Request for 
Applications for AFRI and the Organic Transition Program. Given 
the growing demand for organic products, the agreement also 
encourages USDA to increase the number of organic research 
projects funded under AFRI and the Specialty Crop Research 
Initiative.
    The agreement notes that the Agriculture Improvement Act of 
2018 (Public Law 115-334) expanded the Extension Risk 
Management Education Program to include a wide range of farm 
viability activities and dramatically increased the mandatory 
funding provided for this program. In light of this funding 
increase, the agreement directs NIFA to raise the maximum grant 
size in order to accommodate a wider range of project types and 
scopes and urges NIFA to develop a process to support regional, 
multi-regional, and national projects, which would require a 
separate, larger maximum grant size.
    The agreement supports small fruit research to promote 
sustainable production of berry and grape crops with the goal 
of reducing pesticide use and improving quality and yield. The 
agreement notes growing concerns about invasive insects, such 
as the spotted winged drosophila and brown marmorated stink 
bug, and the negative impact they have on small fruit 
production and integrated pest management. The agreement 
strongly encourages USDA to support research to improve the 
ability to forecast pest and disease spread and implement 
precision management strategies.
    The agreement recognizes the importance of nationally 
coordinated, regionally managed canola research and extension 
programs and encourages the Secretary to give priority 
consideration to proposals that address research needs in 
production areas with the greatest potential to expand, as well 
as those where canola production is established and needs to be 
maintained.
    The agreement strongly supports the Sustainable Agriculture 
Research and Education program and directs USDA to ensure that 
research, education, and extension activities carried out 
within the program remain intact. The Secretary is encouraged 
to support professional development program activities such as 
training, grants, and resources for agricultural professionals 
to build their awareness, knowledge, and skills related to soil 
health and carbon sequestration.
    The agreement encourages NIFA to support practical, hands-
on educational and training needs of the rapidly expanding 
dairy industry through collaborations that bring together 
students, young dairy professionals, academia, and dairy 
producers.

              NATIVE AMERICAN INSTITUTIONS ENDOWMENT FUND

    The agreement provides $11,880,000 for the Native American 
Institutions Endowment Fund.

                          EXTENSION ACTIVITIES

    The agreement provides $538,447,000 for NIFA, Extension 
Activities.
    The agreement notes the concern that farmers and ranchers 
face highly stressful working conditions, which can contribute 
to serious behavioral health concerns, especially during 
downturns in the farm economy and trade uncertainty. The 
agreement urges the Department to prioritize proposals from 
regions that have seen high levels of farm bankruptcies, 
auctions, and other signals of severe economic distress when 
reviewing award applications for the Farm and Ranch Stress 
Assistance Network program. The Secretary is directed to 
provide quarterly reports to the Committees detailing the 
indicators of stress, data on stress response strategies, and 
emerging trends in rural economic and healthcare needs 
resulting from these stress interventions. In addition, the 
agreement directs NIFA and the Department's Rural Health 
Liaison to coordinate with the Department of Health and Human 
Services to gather and utilize existing data sets prepared by 
the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention on farmer and 
rancher mental and behavioral health. Further, the agreement 
directs NIFA and the Rural Health Liaison to work together to 
provide a report on farmers' and ranchers' mental health 
status, access to behavioral health care, as well as geographic 
and demographic factors that are associated with higher rates 
of substance abuse, suicide, and job dissatisfaction. The 
report should also discuss barriers in collecting or accessing 
this information. The agreement directs the Department to 
provide the report not later than 180 days after enactment.
    The agreement notes the essential function that the 
Cooperative Extension System plays in ensuring that farmers, 
ranchers, and communities of all sizes are empowered to meet 
the challenges they face, adapt to changing technology, improve 
nutrition and food safety, prepare for and respond to 
emergencies, and protect our environment. The agreement rejects 
proposed cuts to Extension Activities and notes the increased 
importance of extension given the extraordinary stresses placed 
on farmers, ranchers, rural businesses and communities, and the 
food supply chain by trade and market uncertainty and the 
current economic downturn.
    The agreement is concerned that the Cooperative Extension 
System may not reach minority, socially disadvantaged, and 
Tribal communities in proportion to their participation in the 
agricultural sector. All institutions that receive extension 
funding should seek to ensure that an equitable percentage of 
their overall extension work reaches minority, socially 
disadvantaged, and Tribal communities. The agreement directs 
NIFA to evaluate distribution of extension resources to these 
three populations and report to the Committees no later than 90 
days after enactment of this Act.

    The agreement provides $809,000 for the Office of the Under 
Secretary for Marketing and Regulatory Programs.

               Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service


                         SALARIES AND EXPENSES

                     (INCLUDING TRANSFERS OF FUNDS)

    The agreement provides $1,064,179,000 for the Animal and 
Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS), Salaries and Expenses. 
The agreement provides a net increase of $21,468,000 for high 
priority initiatives in order to protect the plant and animal 
resources of the Nation from pests and diseases. Within the 
increase total, the agreement includes the following: 
$7,368,000 for pay and retirement contributions; $2,300,000 for 
the Equine, Cervid, and Small Ruminant Health program to help 
address chronic wasting disease; $3,000,000 for the Center for 
Veterinary Biologics for additional staff; $3,000,000 for 
Zoonotic Disease Management for an antimicrobial resistance 
dashboard tool; $2,000,000 for Cotton Pests for boll weevil 
eradication activities; $9,000,000 for Specialty Crop Pests for 
the control and eventual eradication of the navel orangeworm 
($2,000,000) and of the spotted lanternfly ($4,000,000), and 
for canine detection and surveillance activities ($3,000,000); 
$1,000,000 for Wildlife Damage Management to support feral 
swine eradication efforts; $2,000,000 for Wildlife Services 
Methods Development for chronic wasting disease work at the 
National Wildlife Research Center; and $1,000,000 for Horse 
Protection.
    The agreement includes $6,200,000 in reductions as 
requested by the Department from Veterinary Diagnostics and 
completed pest programs. The agreement also reallocates 
$3,000,000 from Field Crop and Rangeland Ecosystems Pests and 
provides the same amount separately for a pilot program for the 
control and eradication of the cogongrass weed.
    Excluding pay and retirement contribution adjustments, the 
agreement provides a total of $69,500,000 for citrus health 
programs, including projects for Huanglongbing (HLB) and 
support for the HLB Multi-Agency Coordination Group.
    The agreement provides $32,893,000 for Agricultural 
Quarantine Inspections (AQI), including pre-departure and 
interline inspections. The agreement notes that assessing AQI 
treatment monitoring fees on a per-enclosure basis imposes 
disproportionate impacts on industry and user groups at certain 
key ports of entry, including ports along the Southeastern 
United States. USDA is encouraged to continue evaluating 
alternative and equitable funding mechanisms in consultation 
with relevant stakeholder groups.
    The agreement provides $3,000,000 for APHIS to work with a 
public-private partnership focused on combating the global 
threat of antimicrobial resistance across humans, animals, and 
the environment by way of the development of an antimicrobial 
resistance dashboard tool for livestock management, research, 
risk, and stewardship.
    The agreement provides no less than the fiscal year 2020 
level for cattle fever tick eradication needs and directs APHIS 
to coordinate with ARS on the development of its long-term 
cattle fever tick research program.
    The agreement provides no less than $11,000,000 for cervid 
health activities. Of the amount provided, $7,000,000 shall be 
for APHIS to allocate funds directly to State departments of 
wildlife and State departments of agriculture to further 
develop and implement chronic wasting disease (CWD) 
surveillance, testing, management, and response activities. In 
allocating these funds, APHIS shall give priority to States 
that have experienced a recent incident of CWD, have a CWD 
monitoring and surveillance program, and have a diagnostic 
laboratory system certified for CWD testing. Within the 
remaining $4,000,000 provided, APHIS should give consideration 
to indemnity payments if warranted.
    Of the funds made available for the National Clean Plant 
Network (NCPN), $500,000 is provided for equipment purchases to 
ensure the establishment of an additional diagnostic and 
therapy center for the NCPN-Berries. Further, no less than the 
fiscal year 2020 level should be available for the NCPN-Berries 
diagnostic center.
    The agreement directs APHIS to work with ARS and 
stakeholders, and provides no less than the fiscal year 2020 
level to develop an integrated management program for control 
of the Roseau cane scale insect pest infestation.
    The agreement is aware that USDA has confirmed the 
detection of Asian giant hornets in Washington State. The 
agreement directs the Department to keep the Committees 
apprised of any new nest detections and resources needed to 
support detection surveys, outreach, and methods development 
for detection and response tools to prevent the establishment 
of the Asian giant hornet in the United States.
    The agreement recognizes the extreme economic hardship 
posed to gamebird and egg farmers when flocks are determined to 
be infected by highly and low pathogenic avian influenza and 
acknowledges the severe limitations on controlled marketing 
available to producers of live game birds, as well as the 
income loss from egg production. The agreement encourages APHIS 
to provide full indemnity coverage for gamebird and egg 
operations and cease attempts to limit coverage.
    The agreement urges USDA to consider providing emergency 
response resources, such as a funding set aside from the Plant 
Protection Act Section 7721 program, to rapidly respond to pest 
emergencies of high economic consequence in Hawaii. The 
agreement also urges USDA to assist with coordination, support, 
and other available tools and resources to State, academic, and 
coffee industry stakeholders.
    The agreement remains concerned about the capacity of 
States to conduct surveillance, testing, prevention, and 
research relating to Eastern Equine Encephalitis and provides 
no less than the fiscal year 2020 level to support ongoing 
cooperative agreements with impacted States.
    The agreement recognizes the importance of discovering 
collaborative, science-based solutions for feral wild horse 
animal management and encourages APHIS to study the control of 
large feral animal populations that pose health and safety 
risks.
    The agreement provides no less than the fiscal year 2020 
level to support the implementation of the Lacey Act within the 
Safe Trade and International Technical Assistance program.
    The agreement supports the Department's decision to develop 
a new National Aquaculture Health Plan in accordance with 
Executive Order 13921 and directs APHIS to collaborate with 
State and land-grant university partners in the development of 
the new plan. The agreement further directs the Department to 
report to the Committees within 60 days of enactment of this 
Act on its efforts in this regard.
    The agreement provides no less than $3,000,000 for APHIS to 
develop a qualified workforce comprised of subject matter 
experts. The agreement encourages APHIS to establish 
cooperative agreements with academic research institutions, 
particularly non-land grant Hispanic-Serving Institutions, to 
support the next generation of the NBAF workforce.
    The agreement is concerned about online dog dealers that 
are continuing to sell animals without the necessary USDA 
licenses pursuant to the Animal Welfare Act. The agreement 
encourages APHIS to continue to conduct robust oversight and 
enforcement of this statute and the 2013 rule requiring online 
dealers who are selling animals to consumers sight-unseen to 
have the necessary license.
    The agreement includes no less than the fiscal year 2020 
funding level to improve understanding of EU1 and NA1 strains 
of the sudden oak death pathogen and treatment methods to 
inform control and management techniques in wildlands.
    The agreement encourages APHIS to further investigate West 
Nile virus and other infectious diseases affecting farm raised 
alligators and develop treatments and methods to prevent 
infection and transmission.
    The agreement provides no less than the fiscal year 2020 
level for the agency to reduce blackbird depredation in the 
Northern Great Plains.
    The agreement provides no less than the fiscal year 2020 
level for damage management efforts and the development of 
methods to assist catfish producers in combatting the 
persistent threat and economic hardship caused by cormorants, 
pelicans, and other birds.
    The agreement provides an additional $1,000,000 above the 
fiscal year 2020 level in support of APHIS efforts to decrease 
the damage and risk to agriculture, natural resources, and 
property caused by feral swine.
    The agreement provides $28,000,000 for the National Rabies 
Management Program to fortify existing barriers and advance 
prevention and eradication efforts.
    The agreement provides $2,000,000 within Wildlife Damage 
Management to maintain a national training academy focused on 
those areas of greatest concern for human-animal conflicts.
    The agreement supports additional research to address 
improved diagnostics, management, treatment, and transmission 
pathways of CWD. Concerns also remain about the growing threat 
of CWD in the Southeastern United States and the potential for 
conflicts between people and cervids nationwide. The agreement 
notes that while CWD has the potential to reduce populations 
long-term and cause major socio-economic impacts, its zoonotic 
potential lacks a definitive conclusion, among other unknowns. 
Therefore, the agreement provides an additional $2,000,000 to 
expand the mission area of Wildlife Services and its National 
Wildlife Research Center to include CWD-related research, 
including activities to prevent future conflicts between humans 
and cervid populations.
    The agreement is concerned by the growing prevalence of 
Little Cherry Disease in the Pacific Northwest and California, 
and the significant threat that it poses to the region's stone 
fruit. The agreement encourages the Secretary to prioritize 
work and research on detection and mitigation of the disease 
and to work with growers, universities, and other partners to 
develop effective control mechanisms.

                        BUILDINGS AND FACILITIES

    The agreement provides $3,175,000 for APHIS Buildings and 
Facilities.

                     Agricultural Marketing Service


                           MARKETING SERVICES

    The agreement provides $188,358,000 for Agricultural 
Marketing Service (AMS), Marketing Services.
    The agreement provides increases of $2,000,000 for the 
Farmers Market and Local Food Promotion Program; $2,000,000 for 
the National Organic Program; and $500,000 for the Organic Data 
Initiative.
    The agreement recognizes that accurate data for the 
production, pricing, and marketing of organic products is 
essential to maintaining stable markets, identifying fraud, 
creating risk management tools, tracking production trends, and 
increasing exports. The Secretary is directed to require 
mandatory reporting on an annual basis by accredited certifying 
agents on aggregate production areas certified by crop and 
location in order to accurately calculate organic acreage and 
yield estimates on a country-by-country basis. Additionally, 
the agreement directs the Secretary to submit a report to the 
Committees within one year of enactment of this Act detailing 
the Department's current collection and publication of organic 
data and identifying gaps in the reporting or collection of 
organic-specific data.
    The agreement encourages AMS to prioritize proposals for 
the Acer Access and Development Program that support the 
promotion of research and education, natural resource 
sustainability, and market development and promotion.
    The agreement recognizes the severe stress and harsh 
economic losses facing the Nation's dairy farmers that have 
driven thousands of farmers out of business and delayed 
economic recovery for those that remain. Given this urgency, 
the agreement encourages the Secretary to use all available 
resources to help these struggling farmers to diversify, 
innovate, and reduce risk.
    The agreement recognizes that the current economic climate 
has had a severe, negative impact on local food systems. The 
agreement encourages AMS to prioritize funding applications 
that increase the resilience and adaptability of local food 
systems and ensure compliance with the Food Safety 
Modernization Act.
    The agreement urges USDA to reestablish the Wild Caught 
Working Group under the National Organic Standards Board to 
evaluate wild capture aquatic animal production systems and 
assess the feasibility and appropriateness of developing 
organic production, handling, and labeling standards for wild 
caught seafood. USDA is directed to provide a report on the 
status of discussions with interested parties, including the 
wild caught seafood industry and the organic community, 
regarding the feasibility and framework for establishing 
organic standards for wild-caught seafood.
    The agreement recognizes the importance of consumer 
confidence in the integrity of the USDA Organic Seal and notes 
the work that USDA has done to increase training and certifier 
consistency with respect to dairy operations. The agreement 
directs AMS to continue to resolve inconsistencies in 
enforcement and interpretation of regulations, including those 
relating to the transition of livestock to organic dairy 
production and dry matter intake during the grazing season. AMS 
is further directed to continue to conduct critical risk-based 
oversight, particularly for large, complex dairy operations.
    The agreement recognizes the importance of ensuring that 
meat pricing mechanisms are transparent and provide reliable 
price discovery for cattle producers and that farmers, 
ranchers, processors, and consumers must have a fair and 
competitive marketplace. The agreement directs the Secretary, 
working with the Attorney General as appropriate, to act 
expeditiously to analyze these issues and to consider extending 
the ongoing investigation to include recent economic 
disruptions.

                 LIMITATION ON ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES

    The agreement includes a limitation on administrative 
expenses of $61,227,000.

    The agreement provides $809,000 for the Office of the Under 
Secretary for Food Safety.
    The agreement recognizes the current pressure across the 
food supply chain. The Food Safety and Inspection Service 
(FSIS) is directed to do everything possible to ensure 
employees are safe. This includes determining whether an 
establishment's operating procedures sufficiently protect the 
safety of inspectors. The agreement directs FSIS to review the 
impact of the line-speed waivers it has granted on employees' 
health and safety and report back to the Committees within 90 
days of enactment of this Act. Going forward, FSIS is 
encouraged to consult with the Occupational Safety and Health 
Administration to ensure that any future line speed increases 
would not have an adverse impact on employees' safety.

                                TITLE II


               Farm Production and Conservation Programs


   Office of the Under Secretary for Farm Production and Conservation

    The agreement provides $916,000 for the Office of the Under 
Secretary for Farm Production and Conservation.
    The agreement does not support the co-location of FPAC 
agency State offices into General Services Administration (GSA) 
locations if it is not in the best interest of USDA employees, 
customers, and taxpayers. Therefore, the agreement directs the 
Under Secretary for FPAC to provide a report within 90 days of 
enactment of this Act on proposed co-locations of FPAC agency 
State offices, the cost-savings benefits associated with each, 
and anticipated improvements in customer service associated 
with each proposed GSA location.

            Farm Production and Conservation Business Center


                         SALARIES AND EXPENSES

                     (INCLUDING TRANSFERS OF FUNDS)

    The agreement provides $231,302,000 for the Farm Production 
and Conservation (FPAC) Business Center. In addition, 
$60,228,000 is transferred from the Commodity Credit 
Corporation, $112,000 is transferred from the P.L. 480 Program, 
and $318,000 is transferred from Commodity Credit Corporation 
Export Loan Programs.
    The agreement notes that in prior years, transfers from the 
P.L. 480 and the Commodity Credit Corporation Export Loan 
Programs were provided to the Farm Service Agency, Salaries and 
Expenses. Now that those functions have been transferred to the 
Business Center, so too are these funds.
    The agreement notes that the FPAC Business Center was 
created by the Secretary in 2018 with the goals of 
consolidating administrative functions, reducing 
inefficiencies, and increasing customer service. However, the 
agreement is concerned about reports of prolonged delays in 
filling critical staffing vacancies, which have led to delays 
in the deployment of important conservation and commodity 
programs. The agreement reminds the Secretary that the detailed 
report required in the Explanatory Statement accompanying the 
fiscal year 2020 Consolidated Appropriations Act, which was due 
February 2020, regarding the FPAC Business Center's 
efficiencies gained, metrics, hiring plan, and potential 
reorganization, is overdue.

                          Farm Service Agency


                         SALARIES AND EXPENSES

                     (INCLUDING TRANSFERS OF FUNDS)

    The agreement provides $1,142,924,000 for Farm Service 
Agency (FSA), Salaries and Expenses. The agreement supports the 
mission of FSA and the important services that it provides 
across the country. The agreement is dedicated to ensuring FSA 
has reliable and functioning IT systems. The agreement does not 
accept the net decreases for information technology as 
proposed, and provides $20,400,000 for farmers.gov.
    The agreement is concerned FSA did not adequately consider 
the urgent threat of drought in the Draft Programmatic 
Environmental Assessment. (PEA) for the Conservation Reserve 
Program. The agreement urges the Secretary to revise the PEA to 
allow dryland agriculture uses, with the adoption of best 
management practices, on land enrolled in the Conservation 
Reserve Enhancement Program (CREP). The agreement further 
directs the Secretary to submit a report to the Committees 
detailing a full analysis of the new CREP dryland agricultural 
uses authority and what dryland farming best management 
practices could do to make advancements to protect ground water 
and surface water quality and control soil erosion while 
enhancing wildlife habitat.
    Concerns remain about staffing shortages at FSA offices. No 
later than 90 days from the enactment of this Act, the 
agreement directs the Secretary to submit a report to Congress 
with an administrative breakdown of allotment levels by State, 
current full-time equivalents, current on-board permanent 
employees by State, and funded ceiling levels by State.
    The agreement recognizes the significant potential of the 
Acreage Crop Reporting Streamlining Initiative (ACRSI) to 
reduce the time and burden of Federal reporting requirements on 
farmers by allowing farmers to report data electronically and 
securely with both the Risk Management Agency and the Farm 
Service Agency to automatically pre-populate forms, eliminate 
redundant reporting, and increase data integrity. The agreement 
notes that USDA's prioritization of ACRSI has been inadequate 
and therefore directs the Under Secretary for Farm Production 
and Conservation to allocate all necessary resources to 
identify the software options necessary to ensure that ACRSI 
technology is adopted and deployed by the Risk Management 
Agency and the Farm Service Agency within 120 days of enactment 
of this Act.
    The agreement strongly encourages the Secretary, within the 
total acreage made available for enrollment in the Conservation 
Reserve Program and without reducing the periodic availability 
of general signup, to enroll, to the maximum extent 
practicable, acreage for activities included in the State Acres 
for Wildlife Enhancement practice or other similar 
administratively established wetland and habitat practices that 
benefit priority fish and wildlife species identified in State, 
regional, and national conservation initiatives, prioritizing 
initiatives that provide large blocks of cover ideal for 
wildlife nesting.
    The agreement reminds USDA that the joint explanatory 
statement accompanying Public Law 116-94 directed FSA to amend 
the existing regulations under 7 C.F.R. 1416 to ensure 
producers of farm-raised fish intended for human consumption 
are eligible to receive payments for death losses due to 
disease or avian predation within 180 days of enactment of that 
Act. The agreement expects FSA to carry out this congressional 
directive.
    The agreement is concerned that the Department provided 
inaccurate estimates to Congress on the available unused 
funding for the National Organic Certification Cost-Share 
Program (OCCSP) during the development of the Agriculture 
Improvement Act of 2018 (Public Law 115-334). The overestimates 
have led to a funding gap that is leaving farmers with far less 
assistance for completing this expensive and essential step 
that is required to tap into the growing market for certified 
organic food in the United States. The agreement directs the 
Secretary to submit a report to the Committees on how it will 
resolve inconsistencies in supplying Congress with estimates on 
funding available for the OCCSP and other Farm Bill programs.
    The agreement directs FSA to work with ranchers to tailor 
the Livestock Indemnity Program to address unique 
circumstances, such as panther depredation, which are currently 
preventing producers from receiving compensation for losses.

                         STATE MEDIATION GRANTS

    The agreement provides $6,914,000 for State Mediation 
Grants.

               GRASSROOTS SOURCE WATER PROTECTION PROGRAM

    The agreement provides $6,500,000 for the Grassroots Source 
Water Protection Program.

                        DAIRY INDEMNITY PROGRAM

                     (INCLUDING TRANSFER OF FUNDS)

    The agreement provides such sums as may be necessary for 
the Dairy Indemnity Program.
    The agreement is aware that a small number of dairy farms 
are unable to sell their milk as a result of contamination from 
a family of synthetic chemicals, collectively known as ``PFAS'' 
chemicals. The agreement notes that USDA's own research has 
shown that PFAS residues remain detectable in contaminated 
livestock even after an extended withdrawal period, which could 
result in potential human exposure. The agreement requires the 
Secretary to utilize the Dairy Indemnity Payment Program to 
purchase and remove PFAS contaminated cows from the market, 
rather than paying for prolonged and imprudent monthly 
production indemnities. The Secretary shall utilize the 
established, applicable Livestock Indemnity Program average 
fair market value price to compensate for PFAS contaminated 
cows at affected dairies.

           AGRICULTURAL CREDIT INSURANCE FUND PROGRAM ACCOUNT

                     (INCLUDING TRANSFERS OF FUNDS)

    The agreement provides $9,858,176,000 for the ACIF program 
account.
    The agreement includes $5,000,000 for Indian Highly 
Fractionated Land Loans and notes there are sufficient 
carryover balances to help meet demand. The agreement directs 
FSA to provide a report on the program's utilization and 
directs FSA to increase outreach to tribes and tribal members 
to improve the accessibility of the program.

                         Risk Management Agency


                         SALARIES AND EXPENSES

    The agreement provides $60,131,000 for the Risk Management 
Agency (RMA), Salaries and Expenses.
    The agreement directs FSA and RMA, in consultation with 
relevant stakeholders, to study and update corn test weight 
discount tables to improve the accuracy of these discount 
factors.
    The agreement directs RMA to provide flexibility to 
producers wishing to hay or graze cover crops on prevented 
planting acreage before November 1. The agreement further 
directs RMA to study alternatives to a nationwide haying and 
grazing date in order to avoid primary nesting and the 
potential impact of eliminating penalties for haying and 
grazing after the primary nesting season. RMA shall report the 
results of this study to the Committees no later than 180 days 
after enactment of this Act.
    The agreement recognizes that crop insurance is a vital 
public-private partnership, however, additional education is 
needed for farmers with clear, comparative, and easy to 
understand information on the costs of selected crop insurance 
policies, the producer premium, and the Federal premium 
subsidy. The agreement directs the Secretary to work with crop 
insurance providers and agents to ensure that all farmers have 
access to that cost information on their policies in a 
transparent and easy to understand manner.
    The agreement notes that the Agriculture Improvement Act of 
2018 (Public Law 115-334) directed the Board of Directors of 
the Federal Crop Insurance Corporation to consider treating the 
different growth stages of aquaculture species as separate 
crops for the Whole Farm Diversified Risk Management Insurance 
Plan. RMA is directed to submit a report to the Committees 
regarding the steps taken by the Board to consider the 
feasibility of this proposed change to recognize the difference 
in perils at different phases of growth for aquaculture 
species.

                 Natural Resources Conservation Service


                        CONSERVATION OPERATIONS

    The agreement provides $832,727,000 for Natural Resources 
Conservation Service (NRCS), Conservation Operations.
    The agreement provides $9,488,000 for the Snow Survey and 
Water Forecasting Program; $9,540,000 for the Plant Materials 
Centers; $79,444,000 for the Soil Surveys Program, of which 
$1,000,000 is for the ongoing Soil Health Initiative linking 
soil health and crop cover management; and $734,255,000 for 
Conservation Technical Assistance, of which $2,458,000 is for 
the Farmers.gov Customer Experience Portal program.
    The agreement provides $3,754,000 to maintain relevant soil 
survey for all lands of the United States and territories, 
including Federal and Tribal lands, and encourages NRCS to 
consider including activities that study the impact grazing, 
wildfire, recreation, invasive species, and carbon 
sequestration have on the soil.
    The agreement recognizes that improving soil health on 
agricultural lands is key to achieving both meaningful 
conservation and economic benefits for producers. The agreement 
notes the strong stakeholder interest in the new on-farm 
conservation innovation trials and the soil health 
demonstration trial. The Secretary is encouraged to dedicate 
more Conservation Technical Assistance to establish standard 
protocols for measuring and testing carbon levels to evaluate 
gains in soil health that will help producers to create 
positive economic, environmental, and social outcomes through 
ecosystem service markets. The agreement believes that 
additional Conservation Technical Assistance should be provided 
for healthy soil planning, soil carbon sequestration, and 
conservation activity planning.
    The agreement is concerned about soil quality near 
watersheds such as the Great Lakes Basin, Salton Sea, Lake 
Okeechobee, and the Chesapeake Bay. The agreement directs NRCS 
to provide an analysis on the feasibility of evaluating 
outcomes of watershed and cropland projects implemented through 
the Conservation Effects Assessment Project. The analysis 
should include cost, timeframe, and any gaps in data that would 
prevent a thorough analysis.
    The Secretary is encouraged to use mitigation with the 
conversion of a natural wetland and equivalent wetlands 
functions at a ratio which does not exceed 1-to-1 acreage.
    The agreement directs NRCS to include the Mississippi River 
Basin, the Chesapeake Bay Watershed, Western Waters, 
Northeastern Forests and Waters, Prairie Grasslands, and 
Longleaf Pine Range States as priority areas for Critical 
Conservation Area funding under the Regional Conservation 
Partnership Program. The agreement encourages NRCS to leverage 
all possible resources to identify nutrient loss and reduce 
runoff to achieve the goals of the 2015 Gulf Hypoxia Action 
Plan. The agreement believes additional Conservation Technical 
Assistance is warranted in these Critical Conservation Areas to 
improve conservation planning capacity and achieve critical 
conservation goals.
    The agreement is concerned about the severe and prolonged 
drought in the West and applauds the passage of the Colorado 
River Basin Drought Contingency Plans. The agreement notes the 
updates made by the Agriculture Improvement Act of 2018 to 
address water conservation and drought mitigation, including 
eligibility changes for water conservation and irrigation 
efficiency practices. The agreement expects NRCS to utilize all 
available opportunities to assist producers, states, 
irrigators, irrigation districts, and acequias in implementing 
area-wide plans and critical innovative drought resiliency and 
mitigation efforts. In providing this assistance, the agreement 
further expects NRCS to prioritize support for implementation 
of Drought Contingency Plans, agreements, or programs that 
conserve surface or ground water, improve drought resiliency, 
and address current and anticipated conservation needs and 
severe drought-related resource concerns.
    The agreement notes that Section 2304(e) of Public Law 115-
334 allows acequias and land grant mercedes to apply directly 
to the Environmental Quality Incentives Program (EQIP). The 
agreement recognizes that there are hundreds of acequias and 
dozens of land grants in New Mexico that can now gain direct 
access to this important conservation program. The NRCS is 
urged to develop EQIP guidance that ensures timely input from 
local communities, including listening sessions with land 
grants and acequias.
    The agreement directs NRCS to provide a report on actions 
it will take to eliminate program duplication as identified in 
Inspector General reports.

               WATERSHED AND FLOOD PREVENTION OPERATIONS

    The agreement provides $175,000,000 for Watershed and Flood 
Prevention Operations (WFPO).
    The agreement directs the Secretary to provide greater 
flexibility to State Conservationists to utilize technical 
assistance dedicated for specific WFPO projects for 
administration and planning statewide for all WFPO projects.
    The agreement is concerned about ongoing delays with some 
WFPO projects and the impact such delays have on local 
communities, especially those aimed at supplying drinking water 
to rural communities. Such delays can force undue costs on 
local communities that must find alternative temporary sources 
of water. The agreement urges the Secretary to address these 
issues and complete projects in a timely manner. The Secretary 
is encouraged to consider all costs related to the use of 
alternative water sources resulting from delays in project 
completion, as in-kind service eligible for credit as non-
Federal contribution. In addition, the agreement directs the 
Secretary to report to the Committees on the status of all 
federally funded WFPO projects throughout the States and 
territories that remain unfinished or incomplete due to lack of 
funds.

                    WATERSHED REHABILITATION PROGRAM

                               TITLE III


                       RURAL DEVELOPMENT PROGRAMS


          Office of the Under Secretary for Rural Development

    The agreement provides $812,000 for the Office of the Under 
Secretary for Rural Development.
    The agreement provides $635,000,000 to support the 
ReConnect pilot program to increase access to broadband 
connectivity in unserved rural communities, and directs the 
Department to target grants and loans to areas of the country 
with the largest broadband coverage gaps. These projects should 
utilize technology that will maximize coverage of broadband 
with the most benefit to taxpayers and the rural communities 
served. The agreement notes stakeholder concerns that the 
ReConnect pilot does not effectively recognize the unique 
challenges and opportunities that different technologies, 
including satellite, provide to delivering broadband in 
noncontiguous States or mountainous terrain and is concerned 
that providing preference to 100mbps symmetrical service 
unfairly disadvantages these communities by limiting the 
deployment of other technologies capable of providing service 
to these areas. The ReConnect pilot is intended to be 
technology neutral and the Secretary is encouraged to 
reconsider awarding extra points to applicants from States 
without restrictions on broadband delivery by utilities service 
providers in order to ensure this criterion is not a 
determining factor for funding awards.
    In addition, the Department is reminded to avoid efforts 
that could duplicate existing networks built by private 
investment or those built leveraging and utilizing other 
Federal programs and to coordinate with the National 
Telecommunications Information Administration and the Federal 
Communications Commission to ensure wherever possible that any 
funding provided to support deployment of last-mile broadband 
infrastructure is targeted to areas that are currently 
unserved.
    Further, the Department is encouraged to prioritize 
projects financed through public-private partnerships and 
projects where Federal funding will not exceed 50 percent of 
the project's total cost.
    The agreement also notes that in administering the 
ReConnect pilot program established by section 779 of division 
A of the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2018 (Public Law 115-
141), the Secretary of Agriculture shall, for purposes of 
determining entities eligible to receive assistance, allow 
entities of any structure, including partnerships or 
infrastructure applications, provided sufficient assurances are 
given that broadband services will be provided to the subject 
area through contractual arrangements. Additionally, the 
Department shall permit awardees flexibility to satisfy the 
terms of awards, including the deployment and operation of 
broadband facilities, through affiliates or other third 
parties, where doing so would facilitate completion of the 
funded projects, provided that the Federal interest in the 
funded facilities is adequately secured, whether through a 
lien, a letter of credit, a right to recoup payments (in the 
case of awardees the Secretary deems to be low-risk), or some 
alternate security.
    ReConnect funding for service areas where High-Cost USF 
recipients under the CAF-II auction have buildout obligations 
of 25/3 Mbps or greater for fixed terrestrial broadband can 
only be requested by the entity that is receiving such USF 
support. Project sponsors that receive USF support in those 
areas may only apply for funds that serve those areas from the 
100% loan funding category under the ReConnect Program. For 
purposes of clarification, this limitation on eligibility shall 
only apply to those areas (e.g., study areas or census blocks) 
for which the USF CAF-II recipient is subject to a buildout 
obligation of 25/3 Mbps or greater for fixed terrestrial 
broadband.
    The Secretary is encouraged to support efforts to increase 
transparency and follow the notice and comment rulemaking 
procedures of the Administrative Procedure Act (Public Law 79-
404) with respect to all program administration and activities, 
including publishing a written decision on RUS' website of how 
challenges were decided and the agency's reasons for such 
decision.
    The Agriculture Improvement Act of 2018 (Public Law 115-
334) included new authorities for rural broadband programs that 
garnered broad stakeholder support as well as bipartisan, 
bicameral agreement in Congress. Therefore, the Secretary is 
directed to provide a report on how the Department plans to 
utilize these authorities to deploy broadband connectivity to 
rural communities.
    The agreement encourages the Department to consider the 
mission and scope of all program applicants, including 
community colleges, hospitals and other regional public service 
entities and their ability to effectively address rural 
depopulation struggles. These entities are often located in 
regional ``hub'' communities larger than the program population 
limits, yet without these critical services many of the 
surrounding smaller towns could not exist and prosper. The 
agreement encourages the Secretary to make grants and loans 
available to these institutions in order to serve rural areas.
    The agreement provides $5,000,000 for the RISE grant 
program enacted as part of the Agriculture Improvement Act of 
2018 (Public Law 115-334). These grants have the potential to 
help struggling communities by funding jobs accelerators in 
low-income rural areas. The agreement recommends funding be 
prioritized for entities leveraging next generation gigabit 
broadband service to promote entrepreneurship and entities 
based in geographical areas with established agriculture and 
technology sectors which are focused on the development of 
precision and autonomous agriculture technologies as a way to 
strengthen rural economies and create jobs.

                           Rural Development


                         SALARIES AND EXPENSES

                     (INCLUDING TRANSFERS OF FUNDS)

    The agreement provides $264,024,000 for Rural Development, 
Salaries and Expenses. This amount includes $7,000,000 for 
transitioning to a modern platform for Single Family Direct 
Housing.
    The agreement provides an increase of $2,000,000 for the 
Placemaking Initiative to expand or enhance cooperative 
agreements begun in fiscal year 2020. Awards should take 
advantage of current or future highspeed broadband investments 
from the Rural Utilities Service's ReConnect program. The three 
main areas of Rural Development should support such efforts to 
help create greater social and cultural vitality in these 
livable rural communities.
    The agreement remains concerned about IT systems within 
Rural Development (RD) and still awaits the requested briefing 
about the status of the Comprehensive Loan Program. The 
agreement directs the Department to provide a comprehensive 
report on how RD plans to modernize Rural Development's aging 
technology systems, including a detailed cost breakdown for 
each system, the priority level, and the estimated timeline for 
completion within 120 days of enactment of this Act.

    The agreement provides $74,000,000 for the Rural Community 
Facilities Program Account.
    The agreement notes that the Agriculture Improvement Act of 
2018 established a selection priority under Community 
Facilities loans and grants for projects that combat substance 
use disorder in rural America. The statutory priority 
emphasizes prevention, treatment, and recovery, and the 
agreement encourages the Department to fund these community-
based facilities. Additionally, the agreement recognizes that 
rural communities are particularly vulnerable to the impacts of 
natural disasters, including wildfires, tornadoes, floods, 
landslides, and other extreme weather events and that these 
communities often lack the resources necessary to prepare for 
and respond to these occurrences. The agreement also encourages 
the Secretary to consider projects that will enhance the 
ability of rural communities to recover from or prepare for a 
natural disaster.
    The agreement directs USDA to provide a report on the 
Community Facilities Direct and Guaranteed Loan Programs that 
includes the number of approved and non-approved applications 
for fiscal years 2017-2020 within the North American Industry 
Classification System, and loan processing times with 
strategies to make the loan review process more efficient. The 
report shall be submitted within 180 days of enactment of this

    The agreement provides $56,400,000 for the Rural Business 
Program Account.
    The agreement recognizes that strong partnerships exist 
between RD and Federal Regional Commissions and Authorities and 
encourages RD to coordinate with the Regional Commissions to 
promote efficiency during the grant planning and review 
process. Additionally, the agreement encourages RD to ensure 
flexible processes are available for each Regional Commission 
as appropriate.
    The agreement encourages USDA to partner with States and 
other interested partners to build and refurbish food hub and 
food distribution centers that serve rural farmers but may be 
located in urban areas.
    The agreement recognizes the dynamic nature of our rural 
coastal economies that are often economically diminished by the 
loss of natural resource-related jobs and have been the first 
to feel the negative effects of a changing climate. As new 
agriculture-related economic opportunities continue to present 
themselves to these rural communities, such as value-added 
seafood processing, the agreement encourages the use of Rural 
Business Development Grants in rural coastal communities to 
support innovation and job growth within all sectors, 
particularly in the case of public-private partnerships and 
cross-jurisdictional efforts.

is for Agriculture Innovation Centers, $12,000,000 is for the 
Value-Added Producer Grant Program, and $2,800,000 is for the 
Appropriate Technology Transfer for Rural Areas Program.
    The agreement encourages funding for the Agriculture 
Innovation Centers to prioritize previously-hosted USDA 
Agriculture Innovation Centers where the State continues to 
demonstrate support and provide non-Federal grant funding to 
producers developing, producing, and marketing value-added 
agricultural and food products. Prior year or current grant 
awardees shall be eligible for these funds.
    The agreement requests that the Department submit a report 
within 90 days of enactment of this Act on implementation of 
Section 6306 of the Agriculture Improvement Act of 2018 (Public 
Law 115-334), including a projected timeline for full 
implementation of this provision.
    The agreement recognizes the importance of economic 
development in rural communities and the unique challenges to 
business growth in these areas. The agreement directs USDA to 
evaluate the feasibility of awarding multi-year Rural Business 
Development Grants and to report to Congress within 1 year of 
enactment of this Act on the barriers to implementing such a 
proposal.
    The agreement directs that Value-Added Producer Grants be 
prioritized to support the production of value-added 
agricultural products referenced in S. Rept. 116-110 with 
significant potential to expand production and processing in 
the United States.

                    TITLE IV DOMESTIC FOOD PROGRAMS


    Office of the Under Secretary for Food, Nutrition, and Consumer 
                                Services

    The agreement provides $809,000 for the Office of the Under 
Secretary for Food, Nutrition, and Consumer Services.
    The agreement directs USDA to determine ways to streamline 
the application process for organizations participating in both 
the Summer Food Service Program and the Child and Adult Care 
Food Program to reduce the administrative burden for providers. 
USDA is directed to consider allowing organizations in good 
standing for 3 years participating in both programs to file 
only one application to administer both programs each year and 
to provide a report on steps taken to address this issue, 
including any additional streamlining actions the agency would 
recommend but lacks the authority to execute.
    The agreement encourages the Secretary to incorporate and 
utilize tribally-raised bison meat into Tribal food 
distribution programs to address the health concerns of 
American Indians.
    The agreement strongly encourages FNS to continue to work 
closely with relevant stakeholders in States with frontier 
communities to support locally-designed initiatives to increase 
food security, help communities adapt to changing growing 
conditions, provide opportunities for economic development, and 
develop capacity to grow more food locally. The agreement 
directs FNS to collaborate with AMS in implementing Micro-
Grants for Food Security.
    The agreement is concerned about the effects specific 
changes in SNAP eligibility can have on children, seniors, 
individuals with disabilities, and rural and poor communities. 
The Secretary is encouraged to include these State-by-State 
demographic profiles in the regulatory impact analysis for any 
newly proposed or currently pending eligibility criteria 
changes.

                       Food and Nutrition Service


                        CHILD NUTRITION PROGRAMS

                     (INCLUDING TRANSFERS OF FUNDS)

    The agreement provides $25,118,440,000 for Child Nutrition 
Programs, including $1,000,000 in Team Nutrition to help 
schools meet the sodium reduction targets.
    The agreement recognizes the highly nutritious value of 
pulse crops for children and encourages FNS to support school 
food authorities in sourcing and serving pulse crops to build 
greater awareness of the number and variety of pulse crop 
products and pulse ingredients available.
    The agreement recognizes the benefits the Summer Electronic 
Benefits Transfer (EBT) program has had on reducing childhood 
hunger. The agreement provides an increase of $7,000,000 and 
directs the Department to expand the program into new areas. 
Further, the agreement directs the Secretary to also fund the 
program in the same manner and same States and tribal 
organizations as were funded in fiscal year 2020. The agreement 
also encourages the Secretary to prioritize Summer EBT projects 
through the SNAP model.
    Since the scope of some Farm to School projects has 
expanded in recent years, the agreement provides an increase of 
$3,000,000 and has included language to allow maximum grant 
amounts to increase to $500,000. Of the grant funds provided, 
the agreement directs the Secretary to use $500,000 to form at 
least one cooperative agreement with an established entity, 
such as a regional Farm to School institute, for the creation 
and dissemination of information on farm to school program 
development and to provide practitioner education, training, 
ongoing school year coaching, and technical assistance.
    The agreement remains concerned with the practice of lunch 
shaming and reminds the Secretary of the directive from fiscal 
year 2020 to provide guidance to program operators to address 
this ongoing issue. Such guidance should include identifying 
approaches that protect children from public embarrassment, 
encouraging all communications about unpaid school lunch fees 
be directed to the parent or guardian, and encouraging schools 
to take steps to ensure all students who qualify for free and 
reduced meals are efficiently enrolled to receive them.
    Of the $485,000,000 appropriated for Child Nutrition 
Programs Entitlement Commodities under Section 714 of this Act, 
$20,000,000 shall be proportionally offered to States based on 
the number of breakfasts served in the preceding school year.
    The agreement directs USDA to submit a report within one 
year of enactment of this Act describing the number of Summer 
Food Service Program grantees, the States in which they 
operate, the innovative methods of food delivery by non-
congregate means and in non-congregate settings, the innovative 
methods used, and the number of additional youth served as a 
result.
    The agreement provides the following for Child Nutrition 
Programs:

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

SPECIAL SUPPLEMENTAL NUTRITION PROGRAM FOR WOMEN, INFANTS, AND CHILDREN 
                                 (WIC)

    The agreement provides $6,000,000,000 for the Special 
Supplemental Food Program for Women, Infants, and Children, 
which fully funds anticipated participation for fiscal year 
2021. The agreement provides $90,000,000 for the breastfeeding 
peer counselor program and $14,000,000 for infrastructure.
    The agreement encourages USDA to collaborate with the 
Department of Health and Human Services on the development of 
uniform, evidence-based nutrition education materials in order 
to best serve WIC-eligible pregnant women and caregivers to 
infants impacted by Neonatal Abstinence Syndrome.
    The work of the National Academies of Science (NAS) to 
review and make recommendations for updating the WIC food 
packages to reflect current science and cultural factors is 
recognized. The agreement notes, however, that while all 
revised packages now allow some fish, the amounts remain low 
compared to the recommendations of other authoritative health 
agencies. The agreement strongly encourages the Department to 
consider the health and cultural benefits of fish consumption 
as the NAS recommendations are reviewed and used to inform the 
Department's next course of action. The agreement also strongly 
encourages the Department to continue to allow states to submit 
cultural food package proposals to respond to the cultural 
preferences of WIC participants in states like Alaska.
    The agreement is aware that Federal law requires State 
agencies administering WIC to keep a list of authorized WIC 
wholesalers, distributors, retailers, and manufacturers and 
requires that vendors only purchase infant formula from that 
list of authorized suppliers. The agreement is concerned that 
some State agencies may not adequately audit distributors and 
retailers. Therefore, the agreement directs FNS to develop and 
disseminate a best practices document for State agencies to 
increase enforcement of the authorized supplier purchase 
requirements.

               SUPPLEMENTAL NUTRITION ASSISTANCE PROGRAM

    The agreement provides $114,035,578,000 for the 
Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP).
    The agreement encourages FNS, in collaboration with AMS, to 
provide information to the FDPIR community on how tribal 
vendors can sell foods to USDA for use in food distribution 
programs. The Secretary is directed to notify the Committees of 
the Department's efforts to engage tribes in the demonstration 
program and tribal participation in fiscal year 2020. The 
agreement further directs the Department to provide a report 
detailing its plans to increase the amount and variety of 
traditional foods included in FDPIR food baskets; its plans to 
identify additional Native American and Alaska Native producers 
of traditional foods, including wild salmon, caribou, reindeer, 
elk, and other foods; and its plans to purchase additional 
traditional foods from a greater number of indigenous producers 
and businesses.
    The agreement directs the Secretary to continue reviewing 
and evaluating the verification process of earned income at 
certification and recertification of applicant households for 
the SNAP program using electronic data matching. The agreement 
provides $5,000,000 for continued implementation of the 
National Accuracy Clearinghouse (NAC) and strongly urges the 
Department to move forward with the NAC to prevent duplicative 
issuances of SNAP benefits and improve program integrity. The 
agreement requests an update on the progress of the NAC within 
60 days of enactment of this Act.
    The agreement directs FNS to provide an update on the 
implementation of controls to address the reconciliation of 
data discrepancies across administration systems and retailers 
that provide benefits to individuals using fraudulent 
credentials, as well as data demonstrating whether the controls 
have reduced error rates.
    The Department is reminded that SNAP funding is not to be 
used in contravention of section 107(b) of Division A of the 
Victims of Trafficking and Violence Protection Act of 2000 (114 
Stat. 1475; 22 U.S.C. 7105(b)).
    The agreement provides the following for SNAP:

                      COMMODITY ASSISTANCE PROGRAM

    The agreement provides $426,700,000 for the Commodity 
Assistance Program.
    The agreement provides $325,000,000 for the Commodity 
Supplemental Food Program. The agreement also provides 
$21,000,000 for the Farmers' Market Nutrition Program and 
directs the Secretary to obligate these funds within 45 days of 
enactment of this Act. The agreement maintains the fiscal year 
2020 level of $79,630,000 for administrative funding for the 
Emergency Food Assistance Program (TEFAP). The agreement 
encourages the Secretary to identify opportunities for 
increasing the supply of TEFAP commodities through bonus and 
specialty crop purchases. The Department shall make available 
to the States domestically produced catfish fillets for 
distribution to local agencies.

                   NUTRITION PROGRAMS ADMINISTRATION

    The agreement provides $156,805,000 for Nutrition Programs 
Administration.
    The agreement continues to be interested in the decision-
making process leading up to the development of the 2020 
Dietary Guidelines for Americans. The agreement is especially 
interested to know if USDA considered in their decision-making 
the recommendations included in the National Academy of 
Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine September 2017 report 
entitled ``Redesigning the Process for Establishing the Dietary 
Guidelines for Americans''. It is imperative that these 
guidelines and future guidelines be based upon strong and 
balanced science as well as focused on providing consumers with 
dietary and nutritional information that will assist them in 
eating a healthy and balanced diet. Section 796 describes the 
requirements of a study to be conducted by the National Academy 
of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine within a year of 
enactment of this Act. The agreement provides a one-time 
increase of $1,000,000 for this review and corresponding 
report.

                FOREIGN ASSISTANCE AND RELATED PROGRAMS


   Office of the Under Secretary for Trade and Foreign Agricultural 
                                Affairs

    The agreement provides $887,000 for the Office of the Under 
Secretary for Trade and Foreign Agricultural Affairs.
    The agreement directs the Department to publish an annual 
report describing the recipients of funds, including the 
quantity and specific uses of such funding awards, granted 
through the Market Access Program and the Foreign Market 
Development Program for the purpose of promoting agricultural 
sales, to ensure compliance with Section 3201 of Public Law 
115-334.
    The Secretary is directed to publish a report on the 
nutrition outcomes achieved over the past 12 months by the 
McGovern-Dole International Food for Education and Child 
Nutrition Program and the Food for Peace Title II program. The 
report should be publicly available and track progress towards 
global targets on stunting, wasting, anemia, and breastfeeding.

                      Office of Codex Alimentarius

    The agreement provides $4,805,000 for the Office of Codex 
Alimentarius.

                      Foreign Agricultural Service


                         SALARIES AND EXPENSES

                     (INCLUDING TRANSFERS OF FUNDS)

    The agreement provides $221,835,000 for the Foreign 
Agricultural Service, Salaries and Expenses and a transfer of 
$6,063,000.
    The agreement provides increases of $1,540,000 for 
International Cooperative Administrative Support Services, 
$258,000 for Capital Security Cost Sharing, $2,500,000 for 
locally employed staff, $727,000 for rightsizing, and 
$1,297,000 for pay costs and retirement contributions. The 
agreement also continues to fully fund the Borlaug Fellows 
Program and the Cochran Fellowship Program.
    The agreement notes that last year's H.Rpt. 116-107 
directed USDA to provide a briefing on how USDA can maximize 
its participation in the John Ogonowski and Doug Bereuter 
Farmer-to-Farmer program (Farmer-to-Farmer). Due to the lack of 
such information provided to the Committees, the agreement 
directs USDA to provide a follow-up brief which would include a 
list of recommendations for how to enhance its participation in 
Farmer-to-Farmer, including a discussion of how Farmer-to-
Farmer can work collaboratively with other USDA-funded programs 
such as 4-H, the Cooperative Extension System, the McGovern-
Dole International Food for Education and Child Nutrition 
Program, and other government agencies such as U.S. Fish and 
Wildlife Service.
    The agreement is aware that the lack of comprehensive cold 
food chain systems is one of the main causes of food loss and 
results in a significant percentage of food spoilage from farm-
to-market. Preventing food loss and implementing a robust cold 
food chain results in substantial benefits such as increased 
nutrition, a safer food supply, greater economic opportunity, 
increased resilience, and improved agricultural productivity. 
The agreement encourages the Department to give strong 
consideration to the use of cold chain technologies and include 
the development of appropriate cooling technologies in 
programs, policies, and strategic plans aimed at hunger 
prevention and food security in developing agricultural 
markets.

  FOOD FOR PEACE TITLE I DIRECT CREDIT AND FOOD FOR PROGRESS PROGRAM 
                                ACCOUNT

                     (INCLUDING TRANSFER OF FUNDS)

     The agreement provides $112,000 for administrative 
expenses for the Food for Peace Title I Direct Credit and Food 
for Progress Program Account to be transferred to and merged 
with the appropriation for ``Farm Production and Conservation 
Business Center, Salaries and Expenses''.

                     FOOD FOR PEACE TITLE II GRANTS

            RELATED AGENCY AND FOOD AND DRUG ADMINISTRATION


                DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES

                      FOOD AND DRUG ADMINISTRATION

                         SALARIES AND EXPENSES

    The agreement provides $3,201,928,000 in discretionary 
budget authority and $2,674,097,000 in definite user fees for a 
total of $5,876,025,000 for Food and Drug Administration (FDA), 
Salaries and Expenses. This total does not include permanent, 
indefinite user fees for: the Mammography Quality Standards 
Act; Color Certification; Export Certification; Priority Review 
Vouchers Pediatric Disease; Food and Feed Recall; Food 
Reinspection; Voluntary Qualified Importer Program; the Third 
Party Auditor Program; Outsourcing Facility; and Over-the-
Counter Monograph.
    The agreement expects FDA to continue all programs, 
projects, activities, and laboratories, as included in fiscal 
year 2020 unless otherwise specified, and maintains the 
$1,500,000 transfer to the Health and Human Services' Inspector 
General for its audit and oversight work involving FDA.
    The agreement provides a net increase of $42,250,000, of 
which $22,000,000 is for medical product safety, $15,250,000 is 
for food safety activities and $8,000,000 is for cross cutting 
initiatives supporting both medical and food safety. The 
agreement also assumes savings of $3,000,000 from the one-time, 
fiscal year 2020 appropriation of $5,000,000 for the machine 
learning pilot program.
    Within the increases provided for medical product safety, 
the agreement includes $9,000,000 for Transforming Medical 
Device Safety, Cybersecurity, Review, and Innovation; 
$5,000,000 for Modernizing Influenza Vaccines; $3,500,000 for 
Foreign Unannounced Human Drug Inspection Pilots; $2,500,000 
for Rare Cancer Therapeutics; and, $2,000,000 for Drug 
Compounding.
    Within the increases provided for food safety activities, 
the agreement provides $5,000,000 for Regulatory Activities 
Associated with Cannabis and Cannabis Derivatives; $6,000,000 
for a Shrimp Import Inspection Pilot Program; $1,250,000 for 
Allergen Labeling; $1,000,000 for Strengthening Foodborne 
Outbreak Activities; $1,000,000 for Cosmetics; and, $1,000,000 
for the National Antimicrobial Resistance Monitoring System.
    Within the increases for Crosscutting, Agency-wide support 
initiatives, the agreement provides $7,000,000 for Artificial 
Intelligence activities, and $1,000,000 for the Office of the 
Chief Counsel.
    The agreement is concerned that the recent FDA Draft 
Guidance for Industry on Voluntary Disclosure of Sesame is 
insufficient to protect Americans with sesame allergy, and 
directs FDA to consider further action to require sesame to be 
labeled the same as other major allergens.
    The agreement encourages FDA to work with the Type 1 
diabetes community on the assessment of potential diabetes 
biomarkers related to islet autoimmunity, which might help 
inform the design of clinical studies.
    As previously noted, the agreement provides $5,000,000 to 
support regulatory activities, including developing policy, and 
for FDA to continue to perform its existing regulatory 
responsibilities, including review of product applications, 
inspections, enforcement, and targeted research for cannabis-
derived substances, such as cannabidiol (CBD). To provide more 
clarity to industry and the public, FDA is directed to work 
with OMB on issuing policy guidance in a timely manner 
regarding enforcement discretion.  When appropriate, FDA is 
encouraged to ensure that any future regulatory activity does 
not discourage the development of new drugs. The agreement also 
encourages FDA to partner with an academic institution to 
expand sampling studies of CBD products currently on the 
market.
    The agreement is concerned about the proliferation of 
products marketed using standards of identity for dairy 
products that do not contain dairy ingredients. The agreement 
directs FDA to provide clarity around the appropriate naming of 
plant-based dairy alternatives and report to the Committees 
within 90 days of enactment of this Act on steps taken to 
enforce against such alternatives.
    The agreement supports ongoing collaborations between the 
medical product centers related to the development of 
treatments for neurodegenerative diseases, including public 
outreach efforts and the development of policy, guidance, and 
educational training that is consistent across centers and 
aligns policy guidance with agency actions. FDA is directed to 
provide a briefing updating the Committees on efforts to date 
and plans for future collaborations within the agency and with 
external stakeholders to combat neurodegenerative diseases.
    The agreement notes that imported human food continues to 
have higher pesticide violation rates than domestically 
produced food and directs FDA to continue to partner with State 
inspection services and develop emerging technologies to 
enhance the imported food sampling efforts. Additionally, the 
agreement encourages FDA to work with partners such as the U.S. 
International Trade Commission to conduct a multi-year data 
review to better identify imported food samples that are more 
likely to have pesticide violations to assess whether giving 
special attention to certain imported products with 
significantly higher rates of violations compared to domestic 
products would change the planning of the pesticide sampling 
plan for future years.
    The agreement remains concerned about potential consumer 
confusion over FDA nutritional labeling requirements and 
guidelines for added sugar for single ingredient products like 
maple syrup and honey, where sugar is naturally occurring in 
the product rather than added to the product. The agreement 
notes that FDA issued guidance to the industry on June 18, 
2019, to verify that the phrase ``added sugar'' is not required 
in the regulated portion of the nutrition facts label for these 
products. This guidance instructed producers that the percent 
daily value would be required to appear on the label and 
allowed for the voluntary use of a footnote to explain that 
this refers to a percent daily value of ``added sugar.'' The 
agreement is concerned that continued use of the term ``added 
sugar'' in relation to percent daily value will mislead 
consumers to think that sugar has been added to a pure single-
ingredient maple or honey product. Not later than 60 days after 
the enactment of this Act, the Commissioner shall submit to the 
Committees a report updating FDA's June 18, 2019, guidance to 
the industry regarding the ``Declaration of Added Sugars on 
Honey, Maple Syrup, Other Single-Ingredient Sugars and Syrups, 
and Certain Cranberry Products''. The report shall include 
multiple examples of factual and non-misleading statements 
describing the applicable percent daily value of sugar added to 
one's diet that can be used by producers and processors of 
honey, maple syrup, other single-ingredient sugars and syrups, 
and certain cranberry products as optional explanatory 
statements to inform consumers of the meaning of this component 
of the nutrition facts panel.
    The agreement is aware of the important contribution of the 
FDA Center for Food Safety and Applied Nutrition Centers of 
Excellence (COEs) program in supporting critical basic research 
as well as facilitating Food Safety Modernization Act (FSMA) 
implementation. The agreement encourages FDA to continue to 
fully utilize the COE's.
    The agreement notes the challenges associated with the 
approval of complex generics and directs FDA to provide an 
update on the agency's effort to expedite the approval of these 
products.
    The agreement directs FDA to provide a briefing on the 
development of the 503B Bulks List and regulation of devices 
intended for corneal crosslinking procedures.
    The agreement directs FDA to continue working with small 
farms to clarify requirements for FSMA compliance. The 
agreement urges FDA to provide guidance, offer technical 
assistance, and provide other resources to assist small farms 
with compliance.
    The agreement is aware that some States that have entered 
into cooperative agreements under the State Produce 
Implementation Cooperative Agreement Program are considering 
changing the State agency responsible for implementing these 
agreements. FDA is directed to work with any State that 
designates a new implementing agency to ensure it can continue 
to receive funding under existing cooperative agreements 
without delay or loss of funding.
    The agreement encourages FDA to work diligently to include 
no less than two members with an expertise in the indication 
the drug is intended to treat or other relevant rare diseases 
on each Advisory Committee when that Committee is reviewing a 
drug that has been designated as an Orphan Drug, and report the 
percentage of recommendations made by Advisory Committees with 
respect to orphan drugs that include at least two members with 
expertise in the indication the drug is intended to treat or 
other relevant rare diseases.
    The agreement encourages FDA to work with glass packaging 
suppliers and pharmaceutical manufacturers to evaluate and 
promote streamlined approval requirements designed to expedite 
the adoption and use of innovative glass packaging technologies 
with the capacity to improve product quality, reduce product 
recalls, reduce drug shortages, and protect public health. Such 
streamlined approval requirements should address stability 
testing and other relevant types of data to be submitted in 
support of product approval.
    The agreement recognizes the increased capabilities that 
FDA has developed to study environment, health, and safety of 
nanomaterials within FDA's Jefferson Laboratory Campus, 
including the National Center for Toxicological Research, and 
its consolidated headquarters at White Oak, Maryland, and 
expects FDA to continue to support collaborative research with 
universities and industry on the toxicology of nanotechnology 
products and processes in accordance with the National 
Nanotechnology Initiative Environment, Health, and Safety 
Research Strategy, as updated in October 2011.
    The agreement remains deeply concerned about the opioid 
epidemic that has taken the lives of thousands of Americans and 
continues to support FDA's investments into International Mail 
Facilities to stop drugs from entering the United States. The 
agreement directs FDA to comply with Section 3001 of the 
SUPPORT Act (Public Law 115-271). The agreement continues to 
direct FDA to refer any drug application for an opioid to an 
advisory committee for their recommendations prior to approval, 
unless FDA finds that holding such committee is not in the 
interest of protecting and promoting public health. The 
agreement also directs FDA to comply with Section 3032 of the 
SUPPORT Act and encourages the agency to continue to monitor 
the effectiveness of existing Opioid Analgesic Risk Evaluation 
and Mitigations Strategy to determine whether further 
modifications are necessary.
    The agreement notes that FDA is implementing policies to 
promote public access to information about how patient 
experience information is factored into the review of approved 
products, and encourages FDA to continue refining the 
instrument and ways to improve its visibility and requests an 
update on the status of such efforts. FDA is expected to 
provide an update on its efforts to include patient-experience 
information in relevant labeling and accompanying documentation 
to inform patient/provider decision-making.
    FDA is directed to provide an update on the investigation 
it is undertaking regarding canine dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) 
and the manner in which it has released information to the 
public. The update shall include: the case definition FDA uses 
to include or exclude cases and the scientific work ongoing at 
the agency and with collaborating partners for identifying a 
causation of DCM; how FDA distinguishes cases of DCM due to 
genetic predisposition in certain breeds; how the agency plans 
to work with pet food companies and the veterinary cardiology 
community during the investigation; and the timing and nature 
of any future public reporting.
    The agreement is aware of concerns with the ongoing 
presence of PFAS chemicals in food packaging entering the 
stream of commerce. The agreement directs FDA to review any new 
scientific information pertaining to PFAS chemicals and 
determine whether food packaging continues to meet the safety 
standards of a reasonable certainty of no harm under intended 
conditions of use.
    The routine usage of five or more prescription medications 
within the same period is becoming increasingly prevalent among 
older adults, elevating risk factors for drug-drug interactions 
and adverse events. Therefore the agreement encourages FDA to 
assess potential impacts of polypharmacy.
    The agreement supports the agency's work to promote the 
domestic manufacturing of drug and biological products and 
encourages FDA to increase its effort to encourage the 
pharmaceutical industry to adopt advanced manufacturing 
technologies.  The agreement directs FDA to brief the 
Committees, within 90 days of enactment, on its efforts to 
promote advanced manufacturing technologies.
    The agreement directs FDA to submit a financial report to 
the Committees within 120 days of enactment of this Act, to be 
made publicly available online, with respect to tobacco product 
user fees and their use to fund programs and activities related 
to regulating tobacco products within FDA.
    The agreement encourages FDA to continue to invest in the 
science base for regulatory decisions on botanical dietary 
supplements.
    The agreement encourages FDA to continue to develop the 
necessary policy to advance the use of Decentralized Trials 
while still maintaining quality data necessary for FDA 
approval.
    The agreement recommends FDA coordinate with Customs and 
Border Protection's honey import testing program to detect 
economically motivated adulteration in imported honey and take 
appropriate enforcement actions, which may include the issuance 
of import alerts if appropriate. The agreement further 
recommends that FDA consult with domestic honey producers on 
its testing program and provide a report on its progress on 
economically motivated adulteration testing of honey imports 
not later than September 30, 2021.
    The SUPPORT Act (Public Law 115-271) granted FDA new 
authority to require special packaging for opioids and other 
drugs that pose a risk of abuse or overdose. The agreement 
acknowledges FDA's request for information on requiring fixed-
quantity blister packaging for certain opioids and urges the 
agency to finalize this requirement to promote safe opioid 
handling and reduce the risk of unintentional ingestion.
    The agreement encourages FDA to continue to work with 
partners to use Real World Evidence (RWE) to help evaluate 
vaccine safety and effectiveness in the post-market setting and 
to further consider how RWE can be included in product labels 
and promotional materials.
    The agreement urges FDA to complete the single laboratory 
validation of the liquid chromatography mass spectrometry-based 
(LC-MS) method for detecting brevetoxins association with 
neurotoxic shellfish poisoning in molluscan shellfish, and 
encourages the agency to work with the Interstate Shellfish 
Sanitation Conference to adopt FDA's proposal for the LC-MS 
method for brevetoxin testing of shellfish as an Approved 
Method under the National Shellfish Sanitation Program.
    The agreement is aware of the public health challenge 
related to the naturally occurring bacteria called Vibrio 
parahaemolyticus. The agreement encourages FDA to focus 
resources into Vibrio illnesses associated with the consumption 
of raw molluscan shellfish, improve risk assessment models, and 
develop improved rapid detection methods for virulent Vibrio 
strains.
    FDA's growing staff will require the General Services 
Administration (GSA) to lease additional office locations until 
GSA can implement the 2018 Federal Research Master Plan for the 
White Oak Campus. FDA and GSA should consider the effect of 
local travel on staff productivity, adjacency to existing FDA 
locations, and the cost of lost productivity when evaluating 
the costs of lease proposals.
    The agreement provides specific amounts by Food and Drug 
Administration activity as reflected in the following table:

                     OPERATIONS AND ADMINISTRATION

    The agreement includes $541,000,000 in total resources for 
the International Trade Administration (ITA). This amount is 
offset by $11,000,000 in estimated fee collections, resulting 
in a direct appropriation of $530,000,000. The increased 
funding level is intended to support current services, 
requested adjustments to base, and programmatic increases 
highlighted herein. Additionally, the agreement modifies the 
House recommended funding level for Enforcement and Compliance 
(E&C) and supports an increase above the fiscal year 2020 
enacted level to meet ITA's operational requirements for E&C 
and Industry and Analysis. Further, within the funds provided 
the agreement includes up to $1,000,000 for the establishment 
of the U.S. Section of the Secretariat within the Department of 
Commerce as authorized under section 105 of the U.S.-Mexico-
Canada Agreement Implementation Act (Public Law 116-113).
    Enforcement and Compliance.--Within the amounts provided, 
the agreement includes the amounts requested for increases to 
manage the anti-dumping and countervailing duties (AD/CVD) 
workload and section 232 tariff exclusion applications. The 
agreement acknowledges the exponential growth in AD/CVD orders 
and directs ITA to prioritize its resources appropriately to 
support ITA's ability to continue making AD/CVD enforcement a 
priority, including self-initiating AD/CVD proceedings and 
thoroughly investigating dumping and subsidies causing injury 
to domestic businesses.
    Aluminum Import Monitoring (AIM) System.--The agreement 
provides increased funding within the amounts provided to 
continue the development and implementation of the AIM system. 
ITA is encouraged to regularly consult with representatives 
from the aluminum industry to ensure the AIM system is meeting 
its stated goal of supporting U.S. aluminum producers.
    Global Markets.--The agreement provides no less than 
$340,750,000 for Global Markets (GM), an increase of $7,750,000 
above the fiscal year 2020 level. The agreement rejects the 
proposed reduction to GM staffing levels and ITA is directed to 
obligate adequate amounts for personnel compensation in order 
to continue to fill vacancies, in line with direction provided 
in Senate Report 116-127 and adopted by Public Law 116-93. The 
agreement reaffirms prior year precedent that the Committees 
will not approve any requests to close foreign or domestic 
offices, including the Export Assistance Centers.
    Rural Export Assistance.--The Secretary is encouraged to 
continue to prioritize the Department's efforts to support and 
expand international trade opportunities for rural businesses, 
and the agreement provides no less than the fiscal year 2020 
amount within GM toward rural export assistance.
    Commercial Engagement in the Pacific Region.--Within 
funding provided for GM, the Committee provides up to $400,000 
for ITA to enhance commercial engagement in the Pacific region. 
In so doing, ITA should identify and prioritize areas that 
would bolster the diplomatic and national security interests of 
the United States.
    General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).--ITA is 
encouraged to continue efforts to educate small businesses 
about the European Union's GDPR.
    Resource Allocation and Workforce Planning.--The U.S. 
Government Accountability Office (GAO) is directed to undertake 
a follow-up to the report ``Commercial Service Workforce Should 
Be Better Planned'' (GAO-10-874) that should include assessing 
the priority of resource utilization within GM; analyzing the 
workforce and succession strategy within U.S. and Foreign 
Commercial Service (USFCS), including the percentage of senior 
leadership and workforce diversity and inclusion; and reviewing 
the current management structure of GM after the merger of the 
USFCS with the Market Access and Compliance business unit.

                    Bureau of Industry and Security


                     OPERATIONS AND ADMINISTRATION

    The agreement includes $133,000,000 for the Bureau of 
Industry and Security (BIS), an increase of $5,348,000 above 
the fiscal year 2020 enacted level. The increased funding level 
is intended to support current services, requested adjustments 
to base, and requirements related to the product exclusion 
process for steel and aluminum tariffs applied under section 
232 of the Trade Expansion Act of 1962 (19 U.S.C. 1862).
    Export Control Regulatory Compliance Assistance.--BIS is

                  Economic Development Administration

    The agreement includes $346,000,000 for the programs and 
administrative expenses of the Economic Development 
Administration (EDA). Section 521 of this Act includes a

Programs balances. Such funds shall be derived from recoveries 
and unobligated grant funds that were not appropriated with 
emergency or disaster relief designations.
    Allocation of CARES Act Funds.--House language regarding 
the Allocation of CARES Act Funds is adopted with the 
clarification that the requirement for future spend plans to 
include details about the geographic allocations of funds shall 
only apply to funds provided in supplemental appropriations 
acts. Additionally, EDA shall report to the Committees, no 
later than 30 days after the end of each fiscal year, on the 
geographic distribution of funds, by program, awarded during 
such preceding fiscal year.

  Total, Economic Development Assistance Programs..........     $205,500
------------------------------------------------------------------------

    In selecting EDAP projects, EDA shall consider geographic 
equity and ensure that projects in rural areas are adequately 
represented among those selected for funding. In addition, EDA 
is directed to coordinate with regional development 
organizations to support projects that address rural economic 
development challenges, including the opioid epidemic, 
broadband access, and the need for innovation in legacy 
industries, including in the use and value-added manufacturing 
of forest products.
    EDA is encouraged to use funding provided for EDAP to 
support broadband infrastructure projects, particularly in 
underserved areas, and public-private partnerships in 
distressed communities seeking to diversify their local 
workforce. EDA is further encouraged to consider outdoor 
recreation projects that are consistent with a region's 
Comprehensive Economic Development Strategy, as well as 
projects in communities looking to expand the presence of 
aeronautics-related industries. EDA is also reminded of the 
need to continue to improve its technical assistance outreach 
and capabilities, especially in communities that have been 
affected by the decline of the manufacturing economy and those 
which are poorly positioned to produce technically sufficient 
proposals.
    Further, EDA shall ensure, to the greatest extent 
practicable, that its grant programs avoid duplication and 
overlap with any other Federal grant programs.
    Economic Adjustment Assistance (EAA).--Within funding for 
EAA, the agreement provides no less than the fiscal year 2020 
enacted level to support EDA's collaborations with the Delta 
Regional Authority, the Appalachian Regional Commission, and 
the Northern Border Regional Commission to assist distressed 
communities. Eligible activities for the Northern Border 
Regional Commission collaboration shall contribute to the 
recovery of forest-based economies and may include support for 
forest-based businesses, outdoor recreation infrastructure, and 
activities that assist in the recruitment and retention of 
employees in rural communities within the territory.
    Regional Innovation Program (RIP).--The agreement provides 
$38,000,000 to EDA for grants under RIP, also referred to as 
Build to Scale (B2S). Of the amount provided for RIP grants, no 
less than $30,000,000 shall be for the i6 Challenge, also 
referred to as the B2S Venture Challenge, and no less than 
$6,000,000 shall be for Seed Fund Support, also referred to as 
the B2S Capital Challenge. As part of the fiscal year 2021 
spend plan, EDA is directed to provide a detailed justification 
for any funding provided herein that is intended to be used to 
support a B2S Industry Challenge in fiscal year 2021.
    EDA shall continue to ensure that RIP awards go to multiple 
grantees in multiple and diverse geographic areas, including an 
increased focus on organizations and States that have not 
previously received funding from the program. Furthermore, 
within funds provided for RIP, EDA shall award not less than 40 
percent of grants to support rural communities.
    New Forest Products.--Many forest based economies have 
experienced disruption and decline in recent years. EDA is 
encouraged to work, including through RIP, with communities and 
regions that have been adversely impacted by rapid changes in 
the timber and pulp marketplaces and to support projects that 
help these communities develop related industries, including 
commercialization of new forest products using low-grade wood. 
This work may include the coordination of economic development 
efforts across multiple States or Economic Development 
Districts.
    Energy Efficiency Projects.--The agreement encourages EDA 
to provide technical guidance for any applicants interested in 
funding for energy efficiency projects under the Economic 
Adjustment Assistance program.
    Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math (STEM) 
Apprenticeship.--The agreement adopts House language on the 
STEM Apprenticeship Pilot Program and provides $2,000,000. 
Within these funds, the Committee directs EDA to prioritize 
implementation grants.
    Technical Assistance to Distressed Small, Rural, and 
Underserved Communities.--Within the increase provided to the 
Technical Assistance program, EDA is encouraged to support non-
profit organizations to assist economically distressed small,

Law 114-249). The Bureau of Economic Analysis (BEA) is directed 
to continue working with the outdoor recreation industry, 
nongovernmental organizations, and other interested 
stakeholders to refine the national-level statistics and to 
continue developing regional statistics. House report language 
is modified to clarify that BEA shall provide appropriate 
support to the Department of Labor in any workforce needs study 
the Department of Labor may undertake that builds upon the

                     PERIODIC CENSUSES AND PROGRAMS

                     (INCLUDING TRANSFER OF FUNDS)

    The bill provides $818,241,000 in direct appropriations for 
the Periodic Censuses and Programs account of the Bureau of the 
Census. The agreement expects the availability of more than 
$1,000,000,000 in prior year funds will provide the Census 
Bureau sufficient funding to fully support its operational 
requirements in fiscal year 2021, specifically as they relate 
to the 2020 Decennial Census. The agreement assumes the 
combination of prior year funds and fiscal year 2021 direct 
appropriations will provide the Census Bureau with 
$1,664,709,000 in available funds, of which $934,430,000 will 
directly support the 2020 Decennial Census, as requested, and 
in line with the Department's revised Independent Cost 
Estimate. The agreement also makes available $91,000,000 
identified as fiscal year 2021 contingency reserve for the 2020 
Decennial Census in the Independent Cost Estimate. In addition, 
the agreement expects that within available funds the Census 
Bureau will fully support efforts to establish the Data Ingest 
and Collection for the Enterprise (DICE), the next generation 
of the Census Enterprise Data Collection and Processing 
(CEDCaP) program.

enactment of this Act, the Census Bureau shall submit an 
initial report to the Committee evaluating the 2020 Census 
operations, the ability to reach hard-to-count populations, 
initial assessments of data quality, as well as the costs and 
the adequacy of resource allocation throughout the Decennial 
Census cycle. As part of this evaluation, the Bureau should 
include elements such as modified operations, and the use of 
secretarial and risk-based contingency funds.
    2020 Census Data Availability.--The Bureau is encouraged to 
work closely with stakeholders representing public interests, 
the Census Advisory Committees, and the data user community to 
ensure the availability of accurate data products for use by 
the public. The Bureau should continue seeking regular feedback 
from data users on disclosure avoidance and to evaluate privacy 
protection methods being considered for other Bureau data 
programs.
    Ensuring the Integrity and Security of Surveys and Data.--
The agreement clarifies House report language and directs the 
Census Bureau to coordinate with the Department of Homeland 
Security, and other relevant agencies, to prepare for, prevent, 
and disrupt cyber intrusions and disinformation campaigns that 
have the potential to impact survey participation or compromise 
data collected by the Census Bureau. The Bureau should also 
coordinate with State and local stakeholders and private 
industry, as appropriate. The agreement expects the Census 
Bureau to prioritize these efforts and to update the Committee 
on its efforts.
    Utilizing Libraries and Community Partners for Census 
Surveys.--The Census Bureau is encouraged to continue its 
partnership with public libraries and other community 
technology centers to maximize the response to the American 
Community Survey and other surveys and assessments as 
appropriate. The Bureau is encouraged to work with libraries 
and library organizations, in coordination with the Institute 
of Museum and Library Services, regarding training for library 
staff and webinars or conference presentations to library 
audiences about Census surveys and assessments.
    Website Modernization.--The agreement supports the Census 
Bureau's efforts to implement the requirements of the 21st 
Century Integrated Digital Experience Act (IDEA) (Public Law 
115-336) which will enable the Bureau to improve digital 
service delivery and data dissemination. The Bureau is further 
encouraged to implement requirements that effectively modernize 
the Bureau's public-facing digital services and to leverage 
cloud services for its website to help achieve cost savings, 
efficiencies, and compliance with the IDEA website 
modernization requirements.
    American Community Survey (ACS).--The agreement supports 
the ACS and directs the Bureau to continue using the ACS as a 
testbed for innovative survey and data processing techniques 
that can be used across the Bureau. In executing the ACS, the 
Bureau should ensure that rural areas are covered with the same 
accuracy as urban areas to the maximum extent practicable.

Assessment, and Seafood Reporting. The agreement also adopts 
House language on Foreign Fisheries and provides $750,000 for 
this work, but does not adopt House language on Video Review of 
Electronic Monitoring Data. The agreement maintains the 
existing budget structure for Regional Councils and Fisheries 
Commissions.
    False Killer Whales.--Within the funding provided for 
Marine Mammals, Sea Turtles, and Other Species, the agreement 
includes $1,000,000 for NMFS to study interactions between the 
U.S. fishing fleet and false killer whales in the Western 
Pacific.
    Unusual Mortality Events (UMEs).--NMFS is directed to 
submit a report, within 90 days of enactment of this Act, 
showing how funds from the Unusual Mortality Event Fund have 
been disbursed during UMEs active within the past 10 years. The 
report shall include what specific services and incurred costs 
have been financed or reimbursed by NOAA as well as an overview 
of services provided by Tribal partners, including, but not 
limited to, carcass retrieval and shipment, regardless of 
whether or not compensation was provided for these services or 
related expenses were reimbursed.
    North Atlantic Right Whale.--The agreement rejects the 
proposed reduction and provides an additional $2,000,000 above 
the fiscal year 2020 enacted level within Marine Mammals, Sea 
Turtles, and Other Species for North Atlantic right whale-
related research, development, and conservation efforts. These 
additional funds shall be spent as outlined in the House 
language. Within funding provided, not less than $1,000,000 
shall be to support the existing pilot program to develop, 
refine, and field test innovative lobster fishing gear 
technologies as directed in Public Law 116-93.
    NOAA shall continue to support disentanglement, stranding 
response, necropsy activities, aerial surveys, and passive 
acoustic monitoring in the waters of the Atlantic Ocean, and is 
encouraged to develop a habitat suitability index and long-term 
tagging methods. Further, NMFS is directed to continue to work 
in coordination with counterparts in the Canadian government to 
reduce risks throughout the range of the North Atlantic right 
whale.
    In any rulemaking regarding the North Atlantic right whale, 
NMFS shall incorporate recent research on the species' primary 
food source, Calanus finmarchicus, which indicates these 
zooplankton have decreased in abundance in the Gulf of Maine 
since 2010. NOAA is also directed to fully evaluate the 
feasibility, as well as the safety and economic implications, 
of any management actions relating to the North Atlantic right 
whale. Further, the North Atlantic right whale risk reduction 
target proposed by NMFS depends heavily on how unknown 
entanglements are assigned to individual fisheries and 
countries. Any misattributions of whale entanglements that NMFS 
has acknowledged must be considered by NMFS and incorporated in 
relevant rulemaking.
    Risk Reduction Credit.--Should NOAA award risk reduction 
credit to any State as part of the current North Atlantic right 
whale take reduction management process, the agency shall also 
ensure that other States have the opportunity to receive credit 
for past management actions.
    Assessment of Fishing Interference.--The agreement directs 
NMFS to undertake a review, no later than 90 days after 
enactment of this Act, to assess and better understand the 
occurrence of conflicts between dolphins and sharks and 
commercial, for-hire, and recreational fishing vessels in the 
Gulf of Mexico and South Atlantic. The review should provide: 
(1) a quantification, to the extent practicable within existing 
resources, of the degree to which dolphins and sharks interfere 
with commercial, charter, and recreational fishing; and (2) 
recommendations for non-lethal methods to deter dolphins and 
sharks from interfering with commercial, for-hire, and 
recreational fishing, in accordance with existing laws. NMFS 
shall report to the Committees on the results of the review no 
later than one year after the review is commenced. In 
conducting the review, NMFS shall consult with the Marine 
Mammal Commission, the Gulf of Mexico Fishery Management 
Council, the South Atlantic Fishery Management Council, the 
Atlantic Highly Migratory Species Advisory Panel, and conduct 
outreach to commercial, for-hire, and recreational fishermen.
    Northeast Groundfish Research.--Within funding provided for 
Fisheries and Ecosystem Science Programs and Services, the 
agreement provides $2,500,000 for Northeast groundfish 
research, with a focus on the effects of changing climatic 
conditions and warming waters on the fishery, including stock 
health and natural mortality. NOAA is further encouraged to 
prioritize research regarding relative gear efficiency, stock 
boundaries, and other topics that can improve groundfish stock 
assessments in the next five years. Within funding provided, 
$500,000 shall be obligated to develop methods for improving 
and increasing utilization of the full range of available 
fishery-dependent data to better inform groundfish stock 
abundance estimates. This should include a review of 
statistical strengths and weaknesses of existing bottom trawl 
surveys for different species and the development of 
alternative data sources and sampling methods that will augment 
and improve groundfish stock assessments as recommended in the 
2020 report of the Groundfish Trawl Task Force. This funding is 
intended to support new and innovative research, including by 
the Northeast Fisheries Science Center (NEFSC), separately by, 
or in collaboration with, outside partners such as higher 
education institutions or State agencies, and in cooperation 
with the fishing industry.
    Fisheries Information Systems Grants.--The agreement 
includes no less than the fiscal year 2020 enacted amount for 
Fisheries Information Systems grants.
    Cooperative Research.--The agreement provides no less than 
$13,000,000 for the Cooperative Research program. NMFS is 
directed to prioritize trawl surveys that are designed and 
conducted cooperatively with industry and States to provide 
empirical measures of fish stock abundance, such as swept area 
biomass surveys. NMFS is encouraged to prioritize studies 
conducted cooperatively with States, industry, and nonprofit 
institutions using video systems deployed in commercial trawl 
nets for surveys. NMFS is also encouraged to focus on improving 
understanding of natural mortality and relative gear efficiency 
to ensure accurate measures of catchability.
    The NEFSC is directed to consider prioritizing cooperative 
research efforts for species that are experiencing shifts in 
range and population density due to warming waters and other 
global environmental changes. Further, NMFS is encouraged to 
prioritize data collection that may be affected by offshore 
wind energy development.
    Gulf Reef Fish.--Within funding for Fisheries and Ecosystem 
Science Programs and Services, the agreement includes no less 
than $2,000,000 for NMFS to support Gulf reef fish surveys, 
research, and sampling. NMFS is also encouraged to continue to 
collaborate with NOAA's Office of Oceanic and Atmospheric 
Research on the agency-independent reef fish population 
assessments funded within Sea Grant.
    State Management for Recreational Red Snapper.--Within the 
amount provided for Fisheries Data Collections, Surveys, and 
Assessments, the agreement includes $5,000,000 for NMFS to 
continue to work with the Gulf States to ensure successful 
implementation of State management for recreational red 
snapper. The agreement reiterates past direction that these 
efforts shall be a top priority for NOAA, and that such efforts 
shall be done in coordination with the Gulf States.
    Many are concerned by the results of recent efforts by NMFS 
to calibrate each Gulf State's catch data program to catch data 
derived by the Marine Recreational Information Program (MRIP), 
which in some cases resulted in significant discrepancies 
between the Federal and State catch statistics for red snapper. 
The discrepancies are large enough that it calls into question 
whether MRIP is providing the best account of the fishery, 
especially when available data from the Gulf States suggest 
otherwise. Therefore, before making any related regulatory 
changes, NMFS is directed to address the question of which data 
collection system (i.e., MRIP or the catch data programs 
administered by the Gulf States) are providing the best 
estimates of recreational red snapper catch in the Gulf of 
Mexico. The agreement includes $2,000,000, from within the 
funding provided to support State management of red snapper, 
for NMFS to contract with a non-governmental entity with 
expertise in statistics and fisheries-dependent data collection 
to provide the following: (1) an independent assessment of the 
accuracy and precision of both the Federal and State 
recreational catch data programs in the Gulf of Mexico; (2) 
recommended improvements to be made to the Federal and State 
recreational catch data programs in the Gulf of Mexico to 
improve accuracy and precision; and (3) an independent 
assessment, based on the results of the two prior items, of how 
best to calibrate the Federal and State recreational catch data 
programs in the Gulf of Mexico to a common currency.
    South Atlantic Reef Fish.--The agreement provides no less 
than $1,800,000 with the instructions contained in the House 
report.
    Data Collection for Recreational Fisheries.--The agreement 
includes no less than $3,500,000 within Fisheries Data 
Collections, Surveys, and Assessments, to support collaborative 
programs focused on improving recreational fishery data 
collection, as articulated in sections 102, 201, and 202 of 
Public Law 115-405. This funding should focus on assisting 
States to establish, test, and implement more reliable 
recreational fishery data collection tools, such as smartphone 
applications or text messaging supplements. In addition, NMFS 
is directed to support efforts by the Regional Fishery 
Management Councils to implement section 102 of Public Law 115-
405, including the shared initiative between the Gulf of Mexico 
and South Atlantic Fishery Management Councils to establish a 
joint committee.
    Northeast Multispecies Fishery.--NOAA is directed to fully 
fund the At-Sea Monitoring costs in the New England groundfish 
fishery, including sea and shore side infrastructure costs, and 
shall ensure the costs and benefits of At-Sea Monitoring are 
commensurate with the gross revenues of vessels in the fishery. 
The agreement provides no less than the fiscal year 2020 
enacted amount within Observers and Training for this purpose. 
Before obligating any of these funds, NOAA shall provide the 
Committees with a detailed spending plan. The Committees also 
look forward to receiving the report requested by Public Law 
116-93 outlining the current status of electronic monitoring 
and reporting technology for the Northeast multispecies 
fishery.
    North Pacific Observer Coverage.--Within Observers and 
Training, the agreement includes no less than $7,500,000 for 
the North Pacific Observers Program. This additional funding 
shall be used to offset observer costs normally paid for by 
harvesters in fisheries that are undertaking a transition to 
electronic monitoring and reporting. Additionally, NOAA is 
encouraged to identify and implement any efficiencies that 
would mitigate the cost burden shouldered by small vessel 
operators in the fixed-gear fleet.
    For-Hire Electronic Monitoring and Reporting 
Implementation.--The agreement provides no less than $2,250,000 
within Fisheries Management Programs and Services and 
$1,500,000 within Enforcement to support the continued and 
timely implementation of electronic logbooks for the federally 
permitted charter-for-hire sector in the Gulf of Mexico.
    Fisheries Surveys and Offshore Wind.--The agreement 
provides $500,000 within Fisheries and Ecosystem Science 
Programs and Services to ensure the continuity of fisheries 
survey data that may be affected by offshore wind energy 
development and $500,000 within Fisheries Management Programs 
and Services to support the permitting process.
    Fisheries Surveys.-- Within funds for Fisheries Data 
Collections, Surveys, and Assessments, the agreement provides 
$1,000,000 above the fiscal year 2020 enacted amount for NMFS 
fishery and ecosystem research surveys and directs NMFS take 
the necessary steps to ensure that historical levels of survey 
coverage are achieved without disruption in fiscal year 2021. 
At this funding level NMFS is expected to contract no fewer 
than six surveys for Alaskan bottom trawl surveys and 
cooperative research, including a survey to capture movement of 
fish populations out of historic survey areas, and no fewer 
than four vessels for West Coast groundfish surveys.
    Northwest Fisheries Ecosystem Monitoring System.--Within 
funds for Fisheries Data Collections, Surveys, and Assessments, 
the agreement provides $500,000 to maintain a time-series 
monitoring system that includes no less than monthly data 
collection, analysis, and dissemination of hydrographic and 
ecological data to inform fishery management on the Northern 
California Current.
    Western Atlantic Bluefin Tuna (ABFT).--Many are concerned 
by NOAA's April 2, 2020, rulemaking to reopen for commercial 
long-line fishing two gear-restricted areas (GRAs) in the Gulf 
of Mexico that were previously closed annually during April and 
May to protect spawning ABFT. The hypothetical basis for this 
rulemaking--that all of the management measures previously in 
place for ABFT in the Gulf of Mexico may not be necessary in 
tandem and that such measures are inhibiting the harvest of 
other target species--is questioned because of the following 
facts: (1) the Gulf of Mexico is the primary spawning ground 
for ABFT, and recovery of the still depleted stock requires 
that spawning fish be protected; and (2) the management 
measures implemented in 2015, the Individual Bluefin Quota and 
time-area closures, have in tandem, not individually, reduced 
ABFT discards and catch during peak spawning months. Therefore, 
NOAA is directed to reconsider the decision to open the two 
GRAs in the Gulf of Mexico. If the status quo is maintained, 
NOAA shall increase monitoring efforts within the GRAs through 
100 percent human observer coverage and by making publicly 
available all Gulf of Mexico ABFT catch data, broken down both 
inside and outside the GRAs, on a weekly basis and within one 
week of catch, during the months of April and May in order to 
allow for increased oversight to ensure that this rule does not 
result in the longline fishery exceeding their ABFT catch 
limits.
    Harmful Drift Gillnets.--NMFS is encouraged to establish a 
pilot program to assist fishermen in replacing large-mesh drift 
gillnets with more sustainable gear and to consider actions to 
ban the use of drift gillnets in Federal waters off the coast 
of California.
    Marine Aquaculture.--The agreement includes no less than 
$500,000 in the Aquaculture Program, Project, or Activity (PPA) 
for NMFS, in collaboration with NOS, to perform activities in 
support of the identification of at least two aquaculture 
opportunity areas, as called for in section 7 of the May 7, 
2020, Presidential Executive Order on Promoting American 
Seafood and Competitiveness and Economic Growth. The agreement 
also provides up to $500,000 above the fiscal year 2020 enacted 
level in the Aquaculture PPA to increase the amount of staff 
focused on aquaculture at all NMFS fisheries science centers. 
Within the funding provided, NOAA is encouraged to return 
staffing levels to those in fiscal year 2010 at the Northeast 
and Northwest Fisheries Science Centers.
    Regional Pilots in Sustainable Aquaculture.--The agreement 
includes $2,000,000 in the Aquaculture PPA for the NMFS 
Aquaculture Office to continue the regional aquaculture pilot 
program, in partnership with the three interstate marine 
fisheries commissions, to establish partnerships between the 
seafood industry and community partners that can develop, 
validate, and deploy economically and environmentally 
sustainable aquatic farming techniques and regional business 
practices to grow domestic seafood production. To maximize the 
impact of these pilot grants, NMFS is encouraged to give 
priority consideration to promising but less commercially 
developed technologies, such as those targeting shellfish, 
seaweed, and other relative newcomers to the domestic 
aquaculture industry.
    In addition, the agreement provides no less than $2,000,000 
for the NMFS Aquaculture Office, in partnership with the Gulf 
States Marine Fisheries Commission, to partner with a 
university or consortium of universities to establish a multi-
year demonstration pilot of an Integrated Multi-Trophic 
Aquaculture (IMTA) system in State waters of the Gulf of 
Mexico, which shall culture native species of finfish, bivalve 
mollusks, and macroalgae. The pilot is to be for research, 
training, and educational purposes only and should involve 
students, fishermen, and farmers, and shall endeavor to inform 
how to adapt IMTA methods and systems, in an environmentally 
and ecologically balanced manner, for deployment in warm water 
environments.
    Salmon Management Activities.--Within the amount included 
for Salmon Management Activities, the agreement provides 
$39,500,000, an increase of $4,000,000 above the fiscal year 
2020 enacted level, to enable NOAA, the Pacific States, and 
Tribal communities to continue activities in support of the 
obligations set forth in the renegotiated annex of the Pacific 
Salmon Treaty (PST). No less than $20,000,000 of the funds 
provided shall be made available to support ongoing and new 
implementation and mitigation activities for the PST. Before 
any of these funds may be obligated, NOAA is directed to 
provide the Committees with a detailed spending plan that is 
reflective of the funding recommendations produced by the U.S. 
section of the Pacific communities to continue activities in 
support of the obligations set forth in the renegotiated annex 
of the Pacific Salmon Treaty (PST). No less than $20,000,000 of 
the funds provided shall be made available to support ongoing 
Salmon Commission. In doing so, NOAA is directed to consult 
with the Pacific States, Tribal communities, and other 
stakeholders. Further, NOAA is encouraged to minimize, to the 
extent practicable, the amount of funds withheld for 
administrative expenses.
    Salmon and Steelhead Monitoring.--The agreement recognizes 
that NOAA intends to continue funding research in fiscal year 
2021 to monitor mortality of spring Chinook salmon in the 
Columbia River in order to understand the impacts of marine 
mammal predation. Not later than 60 days after submission of 
the President's budget for fiscal year 2022, NOAA is directed 
to brief the Committees on the research priorities of the 
Northwest Fisheries Science Center and the prospect of 
expanding research to include monitoring fall Chinook salmon 
and steelhead mortality from marine mammals.
    Mitchell Act.--The agreement rejects the proposed reduction 
and provides not less than $22,000,000 for Mitchell Act 
mitigation hatchery programs, in recognition of the important 
cultural, ecological, and economic benefits that these programs 
provide for the people of the Columbia River Basin. NOAA is 
directed to continue genetic stock identification for salmon 
recovery and management.
    Interstate Marine Fisheries Commissions.--Within the amount 
provided for Regional Councils and Fisheries Commissions, no 
less than $1,850,000 shall be for the three Interstate Marine 
Fisheries Commissions.
    Northeast Lobster Enforcement.--Within Enforcement, the 
agreement includes no less than $750,000 for NMFS, in 
partnership with the relevant States, Joint Enforcement 
Agreement partner agencies, and the Atlantic States Marine 
Fisheries Commission, to establish a pilot cooperative offshore 
lobster enforcement program. The program shall endeavor to 
establish multi-year contracts with commercial vessels, which 
are not participating in the lobster fishery but are capable of 
hauling deep-set gear, to carry law enforcement officials to 
oversee inspection of offshore lobster gear. As part of the 
establishment of the program, NMFS shall consider (1) 
implementing measures to increase the tracking of vessels 
participating in the offshore lobster fishery and (2) how the 
resulting increase in enforcement and/or any enforcement 
actions (e.g., seizure of illegal gear) could count towards 
risk-reduction under the North Atlantic right whale take 
reduction program. NMFS shall report to the Committees in 
writing on the status of the program, beginning not later than 
180 days after enactment of this Act, and every 90 days 
thereafter until the program is established.
    Report on Illegal, Unreported, and Unregulated (IUU) 
Fishing.--In lieu of House language requesting a report on IUU 
enforcement and seafood traceability, NMFS is directed to 
provide a report, within 90 days of enactment of this Act, that 
summarizes ongoing efforts to prevent the importation of 
seafood harvested through IUU fishing and address imported 
seafood fraud. The report should include the following: (1) the 
volume and value of seafood species subject to the Seafood 
Import Monitoring Program (SIMP) imported during fiscal year 
2020; (2) the enforcement activities carried out under SIMP; 
(3) the percentage of import shipments subject to SIMP selected 
for inspection or audit; (4) the number of instances of 
noncompliance with the SIMP requirements; (5) the seafood 
species in which such noncompliance were found to be the most 
prevalent; and (6) such other information that NMFS considers 
appropriate with respect to SIMP monitoring and enforcing 
compliance.
    Definition of Illegal, Unreported, and Unregulated 
Fishing.--Not later than 90 days after enactment of this Act, 
NOAA shall revise existing regulations defining IUU fishing, 
provided in 50 C.F.R 300.201, to be consistent with the 
definition codified in section 3532(6) of Public Law 116-92.
    Habitat Conservation and Restoration.--Within Habitat 
Conservation and Restoration, NOAA is encouraged to include a 
broader ecosystem-based management philosophy; expand criteria 
to include recreational species, managed commercial species, 
and forage species; and prioritize proposals that engage local 
communities. NOAA should also continue to emphasize the value 
of partnerships when evaluating grant applications.
    Oyster Restoration.--The agreement provides $250,000 above 
the fiscal year 2020 enacted level within Habitat Conservation 
and Restoration to support oyster restoration in the Chesapeake 
Bay.
    Marine National Monuments.--The Offices of Habitat 
Conservation and Protected Resources are encouraged to support 
competitive research and management grants for existing marine 
national monuments off of the continental United States 
administered by NMFS, provided such grants are subject to a 100 
percent non-Federal match.

    The agreement adopts House direction and funding for 
Atmospheric Baseline Observatories as well as House language 
and an increase of $2,500,000 above the fiscal year 2020 
enacted level for the Regional Integrated Sciences and 
Assessments program. Further, the agreement encourages NOAA to 
increase collaboration with the Department of Energy in its 
climate research and modeling efforts, including, as 
appropriate, the sharing of resources and the exchange of 
detailees, in order to minimize the duplication of efforts and 
to increase the cross pollination of ideas and research.
    Earth's Radiation Budget.--The agreement adopts House 
language and provides $9,000,000 for Earth's Radiation Budget, 
and directs OAR to coordinate this work with the National 
Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), as appropriate.
    VORTEX-USA.--The agreement provides $7,500,000 to initiate 
the implementation of a tornado warning improvement and 
extension program as authorized in the Weather Research and 
Forecasting Innovation Act of 2017 (Public Law 115-25), and to 
be known as VORTEX-USA. In developing the program plan and 
annual budget, as authorized by Public Law 115-25, OAR shall 
consider all options across the technology readiness scale to 
reduce the loss of life and economic damage caused by 
tornadoes, including expanding atmospheric observations, 
advancing radar technology, and improving the delivery of 
actionable weather information, and shall include as part of 
the program plan quantitative goals for improving the 
prediction of tornadoes by which the Committees can measure the 
success of any investments. The VORTEX-SE program shall 
continue and be closely coordinated with this broader 
initiative, and, within these funds, the agreement provides an 
increase of no less than $2,000,000 above the fiscal year 2020 
level to expand the VORTEX-SE efforts.
    U.S. Weather Research Program (USWRP).--The agreement 
rejects the proposal to cut base funding for USWRP. Within the 
funding provided for USWRP, no less than $13,000,000, an 
increase of $5,000,000 above the fiscal year 2020 enacted 
amount, is included for the Earth Prediction Innovation Center 
(EPIC) and House language on EPIC is adopted. Further, NOAA is 
expected to finalize and award the EPIC contract in fiscal year 
2021, and continue building the community-based infrastructure 
so that participants can utilize external compute resources, 
including cloud technologies, to interface with the agency. It 
is also expected that NOAA will continue to centralize 
available observations used in operational models in a publicly 
accessible manner by leveraging cloud technology within the 
EPIC infrastructure.
    Within funding for USWRP, the agreement provides $1,000,000 
to support external opportunities with academic institutions in 
promising areas of weather-related research that may advance 
NOAA's mission and benefit society, including infrasonic 
monitoring methods of violent weather.
    National Sea Grant College Program.--The agreement provides 
$75,000,000 for the National Sea Grant College Program, 
including an increase of $2,500,000 as compared to the fiscal 
year 2020 enacted level for the base program that funds 
universities in States around the country.
    Fisheries-Related Research.--The agreement includes 
$2,500,000 within Sea Grant to fully fund the project initiated 
in fiscal year 2020 to develop agency-independent estimates of 
the abundance of greater amberjack in the Gulf of Mexico. 
Within the funding provided, the Committee also encourages Sea 
Grant to establish a regional extension initiative for Gulf of 
Mexico reef fish.
    American Lobster Research.--Within funding for the Sea 
Grant program, the agreement provides $2,000,000 for American 
lobster research as directed in Public Law 116-93.
    Green Infrastructure.--The agreement provides $500,000 for 
the Sea Grant program to partner with local, regional, and 
State governments, as well as with non-governmental 
organizations, to research innovative techniques and use of 
low-impact development and green infrastructure practices to 
mitigate runoff from developed lands that contribute to 
nutrient-driven cyanobacteria blooms, and otherwise pollute 
freshwater aquatic systems, especially large lakes.
    Contaminants of Emerging Concern.--The agreement provides 
$500,000 within the Sea Grant program to partner with State 
agencies and academic institutions to research and monitor 
contaminants of emerging concern that may cause ecological or 
human health impacts, including PFAS, in coastal and estuarine 
waters.
    Microfiber Research.--The Sea Grant program is encouraged 
to support interdisciplinary research on the impact of 
microfiber pollution on aquatic environments that leverages 
public-private partnerships and focuses on identifying and 
characterizing microfibers in textile products, as well as 
determining their impact on aquatic environments and species.
    Sea Grant Aquaculture Research.--The agreement provides 
$13,000,000 for Sea Grant Aquaculture Research. NOAA is 
directed to support marine aquaculture research and development 
in partnership with universities, including with Historically 
Black Colleges and Universities and Tribal Colleges and 
Universities. Similar research efforts have led to beneficial 
outcomes such as the development and commercialization of new 
technologies to meet the domestic demand for seafood, including 
finfish, shrimp, and oysters.
    Ocean Exploration and Research.--The agreement provides 
$43,000,000 for Ocean Exploration and Research. Within the 
funding provided, OAR is directed to accelerate efforts to map 
and characterize America's Exclusive Economic Zone and Extended 
Outer Continental Shelf, including by maximizing the amount of 
funding provided for the Ocean Exploration Cooperative 
Institute and supporting competitive awards for deep ocean

    The National Mesonet Program is encouraged to proactively 
work with other Federal agencies, including the National 
Science Foundation and the U.S. Geological Survey, to identify 
observations and platforms of opportunity in areas with sparse 
instrumentation that may be transferred to the National Mesonet 
Program. Further, the National Mesonet Program is encouraged to 
establish a profiler research testbed, using existing profiler 
networks that provide statewide observational capability, to 
use advanced technologies to sample the weather in the 
atmospheric boundary layer. NWS is directed to provide a 
briefing to the Committees about how such a profiler research 
testbed could be established.
    Automated Surface Observing System (ASOS).--NWS is directed 
to ensure that rural and remote communities who 
disproportionately rely on ASOS operability for continued 
reliable air service are provided with additional resources, 
such as trained human observers, to continue observing 
capabilities in the event of an ASOS outage.
    Climate Prediction Center.--NWS is directed, through the 
Climate Prediction Center, to engage with State agencies, non-
profit organizations, academic institutions, and the general 
public in rural areas in the Mid-Atlantic United States that 
due to changes in climate have seen unseasonable and unexpected 
drought in order to improve drought monitoring and reporting.
    Analyze, Forecast and Support (AFS).--The agreement 
provides an increase of $22,500,000 above the fiscal year 2020 
enacted level for AFS and directs NWS to use the increased 
funding to reconcile previous year funding gaps and prioritize 
filling vacancies in currently understaffed weather forecast 
offices.
    Environmental Processes in the Arctic.--Within the funding 
provided for AFS, the National Centers for Environmental 
Prediction is encouraged to develop capacity for seasonal to 
multiannual timescale predictions of environmental processes in 
the Arctic.
    Tsunami Warning Program.--The agreement rejects NWS's 
proposed cut to the Tsunami Warning Program, including for the 
National Tsunami Hazard Mitigation program grants. Funding is 
provided at no less than $500,000 above the fiscal year 2020 
enacted level to ensure that high-quality tsunami watches, 
warnings, and advisories are issued to safeguard lives and 
property. NWS is directed to expeditiously fill the current 
vacancies.
    Tsunami Preparedness in Alaska.--NOAA is directed to work 
with other relevant Federal agencies, the State of Alaska, 
local governments, and area stakeholders to actively monitor 
Barry Glacier in Prince William Sound, Alaska, and tailor, as 
needed, its early warning tsunami systems to be prepared for a 
possible landslide-induced tsunami in the area. This effort 
should include, if appropriate, the deployment of sensors in 
strategic locations and the development of inundation models to 
inform emergency planning efforts.
    Report on Weather Research Priorities.--In lieu of House 
language on a Weather Decadal, the agreement directs NOAA's 
Science Advisory Board to publish a report, not later than one 
year after enactment of this Act, that provides policymakers 
with the relevant information necessary to prioritize 
investments in weather forecasting, modeling, data 
assimilation, and supercomputing over the next ten years; and 
that evaluates future potential Federal investments in science, 
satellites, radars, and other observation technologies, to 
include surface and boundary layer observations, so that all 
domestic users of weather information can receive data in the 
most efficient and effective manner possible.
    Office of Water Prediction (OWP).--The agreement provides 
no less than $34,500,000 for OWP, which receives funding across 
multiple NWS budget lines, and rejects the proposed decrease 
for OWP within AFS. The agreement maintains the direction 
adopted in previous fiscal years for NWS to continue to 
expedite hiring within the National Water Center (NWC) Water 
Prediction Operations Division and reach full operating 
capability no later than the end of fiscal year 2022. NOAA 
shall also continue to transition OWP personnel from other 
offices to the NWC, as deemed necessary to improve 
effectiveness and efficiency. Within 45 days of enactment of 
this Act, NOAA is directed to provide the Committees with an 
updated staffing plan for the NWC.
    The agreement also provides no less than the fiscal year 
2020 enacted level to continue to expedite development of the 
National Water Model and other next-generation water modeling 
capabilities, and directs NWS to continue to expeditiously 
transition the water resources prediction capabilities 
developed by OWP, including flood inundation mapping products, 
into operations.
    Hydrology and Water Resource Programs.--The agreement 
recognizes that the clear, present, and increasing threat of 
water-related hazards demands an increased commitment to and 
investment in water-related research and development to better 
support NOAA's existing and growing water-related operational 
services. Therefore, the agreement includes no less than 
$15,000,000 ($14,000,000 within NWS, Science Technology and 
Integration; and $1,000,000 within NOS, Coastal Science and 
Assessment) for NWS, in collaboration with NOS, to establish a 
new NOAA Cooperative Institute (CI), by no later than the end 
of fiscal year 2021, which is to focus solely on helping NOAA 
address the Nation's growing water-related challenges. The 
proposed CI should leverage talent and diversity from multiple 
universities to lead an interdisciplinary, systems-based 
research approach from mountains to tributaries, lakes and 
rivers, and ultimately to the coasts that will seed new and 
improved operational services for NOAA by improving our current 
understanding of the water cycle and our ability to observe and 
predict it. The CI shall deliver expertise and resources in the 
following areas of emphasis: hydroinformatics and community 
water resources modeling; geographic information systems and 
remote sensing, including snow depth and soil moisture; coastal 
inundation modeling and forecasting in collaboration with NOS; 
data assimilation; computational science and high performance 
computing; artificial intelligence; and machine learning. The 
proposed CI shall also prioritize the cultivation of the next-
generation of water resources scientists and engineers who will 
be needed to tackle the grand challenges of 21st century water 
resources. NOAA should encourage and prioritize submissions 
from applicants that can demonstrate established collaboration 
with NOAA's water research programs, led by the National Water 
Center, as well as those of other pertinent Federal partners, 
principally the U.S. Geological Survey and Federal Emergency 
Management Agency.

    Sexual Assault and Sexual Harassment (SASH).--The agreement 
directs NOAA to continue implementing NOAA Administrative Order 
(NAO) 202-1106 on sexual assault and sexual harassment 
prevention and provides $2,000,000 within Mission Services and 
Management for this purpose. The agreement further encourages 
the use of carryover funds to expedite the hiring of staff to 
carry out this work. NOAA shall continue to provide the 
Committees with a copy of the report required under Section 
12.02 of NOAA Administrative Order 202-1106.
    NOAA Diversity and Inclusion.--NOAA is directed to take 
discrete steps to promote racial and cultural acceptance and 
diversity within its workforce. No later than 180 days after 
enactment of this Act, NOAA is directed to submit a report 
analyzing the current racial and cultural makeup of the agency; 
planned efforts to recruit, retain, and advance applicants and 
employees critical to promoting greater racial and cultural

    For fiscal year 2021, OMAO is directed to follow prior year 
language on Charter Vessels adopted by Public Law 116-93.
    Funding for the NOAA Commissioned Officer Corps.--The 
agreement accepts the administration's budget proposal to 
consolidate OMAO funding for the NOAA Commissioned Officer 
Corps and its supporting functions into a single PPA, as is 
reflected in the preceding table. In so doing, funding has been 
transferred from Marine Operations and Maintenance, Aviation 
Operations and Aircraft Services, and Autonomous Uncrewed 
Technology Operations to the new PPA. However, on balance, the 
amount provided for OMAO represents a $9,250,000 increase above 
the fiscal year 2020 enacted level.
    Mitigating Hi`ialakai Operations.--It is noted that even 
before OMAO operations were disrupted in 2020, no coverage was 
to be provided in fiscal year 2020 to assess emerging threats 
to marine national monuments in the Pacific administered by 
NOS. OMAO is directed to submit a report on its plan to ensure 
adequate ship time for this mission no later than 90 days after 
enactment of this Act.
    Monitoring of Atmospheric Rivers.--The agreement provides 
no less than $1,500,000 within Aviation Operations and Aircraft 
Services to better observe and predict atmospheric rivers and 
encourages the use of unexpended funds for this purpose from 
fiscal year 2020 to increase atmospheric rivers observations.
    Pilot Recruitment and Training.--The agreement directs OMAO 
to continue programs to recruit and train pilots for service in 
the NOAA Commissioned Officer Corps, and provides up to the 
fiscal year 2020 enacted amount for this purpose.
    High Altitude Hurricane Hunter Aircraft Back-up.--The 
agreement supports efforts by NOAA and NASA to establish a 
memorandum of agreement (MOA) for the NASA Gulfstream-V to 
serve as a back-up to the NOAA Gulfstream IV-SP Hurricane 
Hunter aircraft. The Committee expects NOAA and NASA to 
formalize an MOA as soon as possible, but not later than 90 
days after enactment of this Act.
    Autonomous and Uncrewed Technology Operations (AUTO).--The 
agreement provides $13,665,000 for AUTO, as authorized by the 
Commercial Engagement through Ocean Technology Act (Public Law 
115-394). Within the funds provided, up to $5,000,000, an 
increase of $1,000,000 above the fiscal year 2020 enacted 
level, may be used to establish and support extramural 
partnerships for unmanned maritime systems research, 
development, testing, and training, including any legacy 
projects previously supported by the Unmanned Aircraft Systems 
Program Office or the Autonomous Underwater Vehicle 
Demonstration Testbed. Further, the agreement also provides up 
to $3,000,000 to continue data acquisition from unmanned 
maritime systems (UMS), as defined within Public Law 115-394, 
as well as for cooperative, competitive research and 
development of UMSs that can serve as a cost-effective 
augmentation for relevant research missions and fisheries data 
collection.
    In executing the AUTO program, OMAO is encouraged to 
continue to coordinate with IOOS regarding use of underwater 
gliders and leverage partnerships with universities, 
oceanographic institutions, and other Federal agencies, 
especially the Naval Meteorology and Oceanography Command and 
the Naval Undersea Warfare Center.
    2021 Hurricane Hunter Flight Hours.--The agreement includes 
an additional $2,000,000 within Aviation Operations and 
Aircraft Services to fund additional hurricane flight hours in 
fiscal year 2021. There is concern that OMAO's annual aircraft 
budgeting and scheduling processes are not accounting for the 
actual annual requirements of the hurricane reconnaissance 
mission, evidenced by the fact that in each of the three 
previous fiscal years OMAO has vastly exceeded the number of 
hours allocated for hurricane reconnaissance on its WP-3D Orion 
aircraft. Therefore, OMAO is directed to brief the Committees, 
not later than 90 days after enactment of this Act, on its 
annual aircraft budgeting and scheduling processes and shall 
include as part of its fiscal year 2022 budget the number of 
flight hours supported on each aircraft type within the fleet.

               PROCUREMENT, ACQUISITION AND CONSTRUCTION

                     (INCLUDING TRANSFER OF FUNDS)

    The agreement includes a total program level of

continue to develop a dedicated high performance computing 
facility in collaboration with partners that have existing high 
performance computing expertise and scientific synergies.
    National Weather Service.--The agreement includes the 
requested amount for NWS Observations to continue the Next 
Generation Weather Radar and the ASOS Service Life Extension 
Programs as planned.
    Integrated Water Prediction.--The agreement provides an 
increase of $1,239,000 above the fiscal year 2020 enacted level 
for Central Processing under NWS PAC, which includes not less 
than $5,739,000 to procure operational high performance 
computing resources to enable modeling improvements associated 
with the IWP initiative. With the increased computing 
resources, the agreement encourages the prioritization of work 
by NOS, in collaboration with NWS, on IWP and coastal 
inundation.
    Systems/Services Architecture and Engineering (SAE).--The 
agreement accepts the proposed transfer from the Office of 
Projects, Planning, and Analysis into SAE. No less than 
$2,700,000 is provided for Joint Venture Partnerships with NASA 
and the commercial sector to leverage emerging capabilities for 
NOAA's operational use.
    The agreement also provides not less than $4,000,000 above 
the fiscal year 2020 enacted level for the commercial data 
purchase and commercial weather data pilot programs, which is 
to be divided between the two programs as deemed appropriate.
    Geostationary Earth Orbit (GEO).--The agreement approves 
the administration's proposal to create a GEO PPA and has 
transferred $10,000,000 from SAE to fund this activity. This 
funding shall be used to support the start of the GEO Phase A 
mission concept and technology development activities, 
including the continuity missions to follow the Geostationary 
Systems-R series and Space Weather Follow On programs. These 
activities may include low-cost sensors and CubeSats to advance 
existing space weather measurement capabilities. Further, NOAA 
is encouraged to coordinate with NASA to ensure its space 
weather research is applicable and can be transitioned to 
NOAA's space weather operations.
    Satellite Ground Services.--The agreement provides the 
requested amount for Satellite Ground Services, including no 
less than $5,000,000 for Data-source Agnostic Common Services 
to utilize data and observations from an increasingly diverse 
array of partner and commercial systems.
    NOAA Construction.--The agreement provides $43,000,000 for 
NOAA's highest priority facilities construction, repair, and 
deferred maintenance requirements. Thirty days before 
obligating any funds, NOAA shall submit a report detailing how 
the funds will be expended and an explanation of why these 
projects were prioritized. NOAA is directed to prioritize 
funding for infrastructure projects related to marine 
operations, including facilities to accommodate NOAA research 
vessels.
    There is significant concern that several NMFS laboratories 
will soon be unable to perform basic scientific functions, 
given the age of the infrastructure, state of disrepair, and 
changing physical environments in which they are located. NOAA 
is therefore encouraged to commence a competitive solicitation 
process for proposals from academic and nonprofit partners to 
co-locate NMFS laboratories, as a means of leveraging research 
efforts and enhancing scientific capabilities.
    Vessel Deferred Maintenance and Technology Infusion.--The 
funding provided above the request for Fleet Capital 
Improvements and Technology Infusion shall be for deferred 
maintenance and technology infusion to transition to a 
progressive maintenance model.
    NOAA Ship Ronald H. Brown.--The agreement reiterates House 
language expressing frustration over the omission of a request 
for funding in the fiscal year 2021 President's budget request 
for the midlife maintenance period for NOAA Ship Ronald H. 
Brown. Maintaining a safe and capable fleet of vessels is a 
NOAA mission requirement and it is expected that DOC and NOAA 
will make this a top priority in future budget requests. Not 
later than 90 days after enactment of this Act, OMAO shall 
develop and brief the Committees on a plan to allocate funds 
from within Vessel Recapitalization and Construction to 
commence the midlife maintenance period for NOAA Ship Ronald H. 
Brown.
    Mission Requirement Costs.--NOAA is directed to document 
within all of its future budget requests any unfunded mission 
requirement costs, and particularly those that are necessary to 
maintain the optimal operational tempo of NOAA assets and 
posture of NOAA facilities.
    Buy American Provisions.--NOAA shall follow prior year 
direction adopted in Public Law 116-93 regarding Buy American 
provisions related to marine vessels and marine vessel 
components. NOAA shall report to the Committees about how this 
direction has been reflected in current acquisition documents 
and how it will be incorporated in the Fleet Recapitalization 
Plan no less than 90 days after enactment of this Act.
    Aircraft Recapitalization.--The agreement provides 
$20,000,000 to finalize the procurement and modifications of a 
suitable replacement for the Gulfstream IV-SP Hurricane Hunter 
aircraft.
    Acquisition and Construction Cost Estimation.--The 
agreement notes with exasperation the continuing trend of NOAA 
underestimating the costs of major acquisition and construction 
projects. As such, the agreement directs GAO to conduct an 
audit, as soon as possible, of NOAA's internal cost estimation 
procedures to include (1) a review of the extent to which 
NOAA's cost estimation procedures align with best practices in 
GAO's Cost Estimating and Assessment Guide, (2) ways in which 
NOAA can increase the reliability of cost estimates, and (3) 
specific NOAA projects or components of the NOAA cost 
estimation process that should be subject to regular oversight 
by the DOC Office of Inspector General.

                    PACIFIC COASTAL SALMON RECOVERY

    The agreement includes $65,000,000 for the Pacific Coastal 
Salmon Recovery Fund (PCSRF) and directs that funds will be 
available to Tribes without a matching requirement. NOAA is 
directed to report on how its current priorities meet the 
intent of the PCSRF to support the recovery and protection of 
all declining salmon stocks.

                      FISHERMEN'S CONTINGENCY FUND

    The agreement includes $349,000 for the Fishermen's 
Contingency Fund.

                   FISHERIES FINANCE PROGRAM ACCOUNT

    The agreement includes language under this heading limiting 
obligations of direct loans to $24,000,000 for Individual 
Fishing Quota loans and $100,000,000 for traditional direct 
loans.

                        Departmental Management


                         SALARIES AND EXPENSES

    The agreement includes $73,000,000 for Departmental 
Management (DM) salaries and expenses. The Department is 
expected to spend within its appropriated amounts.
    For fiscal year 2021, the Department is directed to follow 
prior year report language, included in Senate Report 116-127 
and adopted by Public Law 116-93, on Small Business Innovation 
Research, Rare Earth Elements Manufacturing Cooperative, and 
Working Capital Funds. House report language regarding 
Artificial Intelligence (AI) Talent is modified to clarify that 
these efforts shall be led by NIST, in accordance with House 
language for NIST on U.S. Leadership in AI.
    Staffing Report.--The Chief Financial Officer and the Chief 
Human Capital Officer of the Department shall continue to 
provide quarterly briefings to the Committees on all 
Department-wide human capital issues, to include: a list of 
funded vacancies, by bureau, type, and location, including the 
length of time the positions have been vacant; a plan and 
explanation for addressing each vacancy, including a target for 
when the vacancy will be filled; and other relevant topics as 
appropriate.
    Salary Lapse.--The Department is directed to provide a 
detailed accounting of the amounts projected in salary lapse in 
its fiscal year 2021 spend plan with an explanation of how all 
anticipated balances will be spent for each component. The 
Department is directed to provide this information by line 
offices within NOAA that have a greater than 10 percent vacancy 
rate as of September 30, 2020. The Department is advised that 
any amounts insufficiently justified to either augment staff 
vacancies or support mission critical functions will be 
considered for rescission in fiscal year 2022.
    Department of Commerce Working Capital Fund.--As part of 
the fiscal year 2022 budget request, the Department is directed 
to provide justification that clearly articulates why each 
Advancements and Reimbursements account and Working Capital 
Fund project administered by the Office of Acquisition 
Management, Office of Budget, Office of the Chief Financial 
Officer and Assistant Secretary for Administration, and Chief 
of Staff should continue to be funded through the Department of 
Commerce Working Capital Fund.
    Scientific Integrity Policy.--Many are alarmed by the 
findings of the National Academy of Public Administration 
(NAPA) investigation titled ``An Independent Assessment of 
Allegations of Scientific Misconduct.'' The NAPA investigation 
found that NOAA officials violated the NOAA Scientific 
Integrity Policy (NOAA Administrative Order 202-735d), 
specifically the Code of Ethics for Science Supervision and 
Management, in its issuance of a statement rebuking NWS 
meteorologists regarding Hurricane Dorian forecasts on 
September 6, 2019. The NAPA investigation and a similar 
Inspector General investigation, ``Evaluation of NOAA's 
September 6, 2019, Statement About Hurricane Dorian Forecasts'' 
(OIG-20-032-1), both note the role that Department officials 
played in the development and release of the statement. 
However, Department officials are not bound by NOAA's 
Scientific Integrity Policy. Therefore, the Department is 
directed to develop a Department-wide Scientific Integrity 
Policy. The Department Policy should draw upon, but not 
interfere with, the NOAA Scientific Integrity Policy and ensure 
that bona fide scientific evidence and results can be presented 
absent political interference or censorship.
    Section 232 Exclusion Process.--The agreement continues to 
provide funding for the ongoing exclusion process for steel and 
aluminum tariffs applied under section 232 of the Trade 
Expansion Act of 1962 (19 U.S.C. 1862), including no less than 
$7,000,000 within BIS and $1,500,000 within DM, and up to 
$8,000,000 within ITA. If additional funding for the exclusion 
process becomes necessary, the Department shall report to the 
Committees at least 15 days prior to the obligation of funds 
above the totals specified herein. The Department is directed 
to exhaust all available options to ensure section 232 
activities are funded without causing disruption to component 
operational needs or trade enforcement priorities previously 
highlighted in the agreement. Additionally, the Department 
should ensure section 232 activities are appropriately funded 
in future year budget requests and clearly show both current 
services and program increases anticipated to support the 
program.
    Improving Trade Data Reporting.--The Department is 
directed, in coordination with U.S. Customs and Border 
Protection, U.S. International Trade Commission, and other 
relevant agencies, to review and compare methodologies for 
collecting and publishing gross trade flows data and detailed 
supply chain data to better document the country of origin for 
components of each imported good before it reaches U.S. 
consumers.

                      RENOVATION AND MODERNIZATION

    The agreement includes a total of $1,123,000 for the 
Renovation and Modernization account. For fiscal year 2021, the 
Department is directed to follow prior year report language 
included in Senate Report 116-127 and adopted by Public Law 
116-93 under this heading.

                       NONRECURRING EXPENSES FUND

    The agreement includes $20,000,000 for the Department of 
Commerce Nonrecurring Expenses Fund to continue phase one of 
the financial management and business information technology 
modernization. The Department is directed to provide an updated 
5-year budget profile for this project as part of the fiscal 
year 2022 budget request.

                      OFFICE OF INSPECTOR GENERAL

    The agreement includes a total of $43,556,000 for the 
Office of Inspector General (OIG). This amount includes 
$34,000,000 in direct appropriations, a $2,000,000 transfer 
from USPTO, a transfer of $3,556,000 from the Bureau of the 
Census, Periodic Censuses and Programs, and $2,000,000 from 
NOAA PAC for audits and reviews of those programs. In addition, 
$2,000,000 is derived from the Public Safety Trust Fund for 
oversight of FirstNet.
    The agreement directs the OIG to continue its oversight 
work on cybersecurity, NOAA satellite and vessel procurements, 
telework, patent quality, the 2020 Decennial Census, and the 
business application system modernization. Further, the OIG is 
directed to continue assessing all of the working capital funds 
within the Department to evaluate the budgetary controls in 
place to develop reimbursement formulas, the relationship of 
reimbursements to client services; the appropriateness of the 
level of fund balances, and compliance with appropriations law 
and direction. As part of this assessment, the Inspector 
General shall pay particular attention to the increasing 
amounts of funding needed to support the Department's Office of 
General Counsel (OGC), including the justification and metrics 
for how such funding is being levied against each agency and, 
reciprocally, how the agencies account for the services they 
receive from the OGC. The agreement also recommends the OIG 
investigate the growth and utilization of the Department's cash 
balances in its Working Capital Fund and the quality of 
services provided to the customers.

               General Provisions--Department of Commerce


                     (INCLUDING TRANSFER OF FUNDS)

    The agreement includes the following general provisions for

                                TITLE II


                         DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE


                         General Administration


                         SALARIES AND EXPENSES

    The agreement includes $119,000,000 for General 
Administration, Salaries and Expenses. In addition, the 
agreement provides funding for the Department's classified 
programs as described in the classified annex accompanying this 
explanatory statement.
    For fiscal year 2021, the Department is directed to 
continue following the directives in Senate Report 116-127, as 
adopted by Public Law 116-93, on the following topics: 
``Trafficking in Persons,'' ``Domestic Trafficking Victims Fund 
Special Assessments,'' ``Human Trafficking Justice 
Coordinators,'' ``Implementation of the Child Protection 
Improvements Act (CPIA),'' ``Constitutional Policing,'' 
``Enforcement of Federal Hate Crimes Law,'' ``Combating 
Domestic Terrorism,'' ``Human Rights Crimes,'' ``Addressing 
Violence Against Indigenous Women,'' ``U.S. Victims of State 
Sponsored Terrorism Fund,'' ``Crime Victims Fund Awareness,'' 
and ``Wildlife Trafficking.'' The Department shall submit 
updated reports consistent with the directives.
    Strengthening Police-Community Relations.--The agreement 
provides $153,500,000 for State and Local Law Enforcement 
Assistance and Community Oriented Policing Services (COPS) 
Office grant programs related to police-community relations. 
This is an increase of $67,000,000, or 77.45 percent, above the 
fiscal year 2020 level.
    In addition, $5,000,000 is provided to the Department, 
through section 222 of this Act, for the development and 
deployment of a database to track excessive use of force and 
officer misconduct, as required by section 3 of Executive Order 
13929 (June 16, 2020). In developing these databases, the 
Department is directed to consult with State and local law 
enforcement agencies, community organizations, and advocacy 
groups, including those that advocate for the preservation of 
civil liberties and civil rights. The Department is directed to 
submit a plan for the use and approval of these funds as part 
of the fiscal year 2021 spending plan process and to provide 
quarterly updates following the initial plan submission. The 
House report language, and associated funding, for a National 
Police Misconduct Registry is not adopted.
    Federal Police Cameras and Accountability.--The agreement 
supports the October announcement that the Department of 
Justice (DOJ) will permit State, local, territorial, and Tribal 
task force officers to use body-worn cameras on Federal task 
forces around the Nation. The agreement supports the use of the 
body-worn cameras, and notes that funding has been provided for 
the Body-Worn Camera Partnership Program since fiscal year 
2016. However, there are complex issues associated with the use 
of body-worn cameras, including data storage costs, access 
under Federal records laws, and the need for consistent and 
accountable deployment of such technology by law enforcement 
agencies. In lieu of the House report language, the agreement 
supports continued evaluation of their use by DOJ's law 
enforcement components.
     DOJ Task Force Body Camera Pilot Program.--Last year, the 
Department initiated a pilot program to allow federally 
deputized task force officers to use body-worn cameras while 
serving arrest warrants, participating in planned arrest 
operations, and executing search warrants. The Department is 
directed to submit a report, not later than 30 days after the 
date of enactment of this Act, assessing the results of this 
pilot program. In addition to a programmatic analysis, the 
report shall describe the resource requirements for 
continuation and expansion of the pilot.
    Responding to Opioids, Methamphetamine, Synthetic Drugs, 
and Substance Abuse in Our Communities.--The agreement includes 
a total of $541,500,000 in dedicated grant program funding, an 
increase of $23,500,000 above the fiscal year 2020 enacted 
level, to help communities and State and local law enforcement 
respond to substance abuse, including opioids, stimulants, and 
synthetic drugs. The Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) is 
funded at $2,796,762,000, an increase of $74,467,000 above the 
fiscal year 2020 enacted level, to strengthen drug trafficking 
investigations, including those related to heroin, fentanyl, 
and methamphetamines. The agreement further supports the 
continuation of heroin enforcement teams, methamphetamine and 
fentanyl cleanup and container programs, and other interdiction 
and intervention efforts, including DEA's 360 Strategy.
    Task Force on Law Enforcement Oversight.--The Attorney 
General is directed to establish a Task Force on Law 
Enforcement Oversight, to be comprised of representatives from 
(1) the Civil Rights Division, (2) the Office of Justice 
Programs, (3) the Office of Community Oriented Policing 
Services (COPS), (4) the Federal Bureau of Investigation, (5) 
the Community Relations Service, and (6) the Office of Tribal 
Justice. The Task Force shall consult with professional law 
enforcement associations, labor organizations, and community-
based organizations to coordinate the process of the detection 
and referral of complaints regarding incidents of alleged law 
enforcement misconduct.
    The Department is directed to provide up to $5,000,000 for 
the activities of the Task Force. In addition, the Department, 
in its fiscal year 2021 spending plan required by section 528 
of this Act, is directed to identify amounts derived from 
appropriations to ``General Administration-Salaries and 
Expenses'', ``Legal Activities-Salaries and Expenses, General 
Legal Activities'', ``Legal Activities-Salaries and Expenses, 
Community Relations Service'', ``Federal Bureau of 
Investigation-Salaries and Expenses'', and amounts derived from 
management and administration fees assessed by the Office of 
Justice Programs and the COPS Office, and that will solely be 
used to support the activities of the task force.
    Accreditation of Law Enforcement Agencies.--The agreement 
supports DOJ's effort to develop and implement consistent 
accreditation standards for Federal, State, and local law 
enforcement. Consistent standards, informed by broadly-
applicable model guidelines and best practices, can ensure 
community accountability and promote policing with a guardian 
mentality. In lieu of the House report language, the Attorney 
General is directed to take the lead in these efforts, and, in 
consultation with law enforcement accreditation organizations, 
recommend broadly-applicable model guidelines and best 
practices for accreditation standards. The recommendations 
should be based on an analysis of existing accreditation 
standards and methodology developed by law enforcement 
accreditation organizations nationwide, including national, 
State, regional, and Tribal accreditation organizations.
    Training for Law Enforcement Officers.--The Department of 
Justice is expected to exercise leadership in law enforcement 
across the Federal government. Accordingly, in lieu of language 
in the House Report, the agreement directs the Attorney General 
to ensure implementation of evidence-based training programs on 
de-escalation, the use-of-force, and the protection of civil 
rights that are broadly applicable and scalable to all Federal 
law enforcement agencies. Such programs should be developed in 
consultation with the DOJ law enforcement components, the 
Office of Justice Programs, the Community Oriented Policing 
Services Office, and the Civil Rights Division, with 
consideration given to establishing consistent standards and 
curricula. The Attorney General is further directed to consult 
with the heads of each Federal law enforcement agency in 
furtherance of the adoption of these programs. Not later than 
six months after the date of enactment of this Act, the 
Department shall submit a report on the implementation status 
of these training programs, including but not limited to 
training curriculum topics and availability and capacity of 
training facility space. Within one year of the date of the 
enactment of this Act, the Department shall submit a report on 
its consultations with each Federal law enforcement agency and 
provide a determination of whether each agency provides 
training consistent with the aforementioned programs.
    The Department's leadership in these matters must also 
extend to accountability and transparency. The Federal Bureau 
of Investigation (FBI) launched the National Use-of-Force Data 
Collection (NUOFDC) on January 1, 2019, and published the 2019 
results in August 2020. While all of DOJ's law enforcement 
components participate in this data collection, only 29 other 
Federal agencies, or 25.4 percent of Federal law enforcement, 
participate. The Attorney General and the Director of the FBI 
are directed to consult with the heads of each Federal law 
enforcement agency in furtherance of universal Federal 
participation in the NUOFDC. Within six months of the date of 
enactment of this Act, the Department shall submit a report on 
the status of these consultations. Within one year of the date 
of the enactment of this Act, the Department shall submit a 
report identifying those agencies that are not participating in 
the collection, and, in each case, a description of the basis 
on which the agency declined to do so.
    The House reports accompanying each of the fiscal year 2021 
appropriations bills included references to training and use-
of-force in Federal law enforcement. In lieu of each of those 
passages, the explanatory statements accompanying the 
appropriations titles of this division adopt language 
synchronized with the directives to the Attorney General 
described above.
    Use of Force Incidents.--The agreement strongly supports 
efforts to promote participation in the NUOFDC by Federal, 
State, and local law enforcement agencies. In lieu of the House 
report language captioned ``Use of force'', the Department and 
the FBI are directed to submit a report, not later than 180 
days after the date of enactment of this Act, with a detailed 
description of the methods for collecting this data and an 
assessment of strategies for increasing participation by 
Federal, State, and local law enforcement agencies. The 
Department and the FBI are further directed to provide a 
briefing on the NUOFDC not later than 60 days after the date of 
enactment of this Act.
    DOJ Law Enforcement Agencies' Use of Force Policies.--The 
Department is directed to review the policies governing the use 
of deadly force and less-than-lethal force for all of its law 
enforcement components, including the Bureau of Prisons (BOP), 
to ensure they are current and meet appropriate guidelines 
including the Department's own Deadly Force Policy and 
statutory requirements. The Department is directed to maintain 
these policies on its website in a clearly accessible location.
    Emmett Till Unsolved Civil Rights Crimes Reauthorization 
Act of 2016.--The agreement includes the full authorized level 
of $13,500,000 for DOJ component agencies to implement the 
Emmett Till Unsolved Civil Rights Crimes Reauthorization Act of 
2016.
    National Instant Criminal Background Check System (NICS).--
The Department shall comply with directions in the House report 
regarding notifications to State and local authorities; 
publication of notification data in its annual NICS Section 
Operations Report and on the Justice Department website; and 
submission of a report regarding firearms sales that have taken 
more than three days to complete. The Department is expected to 
build on its initial efforts to secure certification and 
implementation plans for the Fix NICS Act of 2018 and is 
directed to submit the required semiannual report on time. 
Furthermore, DOJ shall report not later than 30 days after the 
date of enactment of this Act on how Project Guardian satisfies 
each element of the NICS denial notification directive adopted 
by the joint explanatory statement accompanying Public Law 116-
93, and the number of notifications provided to date. The FBI 
shall also, as part of each annual NICS Section Operations 
Report, provide data on the notifications provided to State and 
local law enforcement, including the number of notifications 
provided to each of (a) State law enforcement and (b) local law 
enforcement, for each prohibited category. The FBI shall also 
publish monthly data on its website listing denials and 
notifications by State and prohibition type.
    Federal Law Enforcement in the Caribbean.--The Attorney 
General shall comply with the direction in the House report to 
report on violent crime initiatives in Puerto Rico and the U.S. 
Virgin Islands. The Department is directed to assess its 
strategy for assisting the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico in 
addressing violent crime and to consider providing additional 
Federal resources, if appropriate.
    Office of Legal Counsel (OLC) Opinions.--In lieu of House 
report language, the Attorney General is again strongly urged 
to direct OLC to publish all legal opinions and other materials 
that are appropriate for publication--in particular those 
materials that are the subject of repeated requests or that may 
be of public or historical interest.
    Reports on Departmental Funds.--The Department shall 
continue to submit information on all applicable funds, 
including the Working Capital Fund, the Three Percent Fund, and 
the Assets Forfeiture Fund, at the same level of detail 
provided in fiscal year 2020 and as required by the explanatory 
statement accompanying Public Law 116-93. In addition, the 
section 505 notification of the Three Percent Fund allocation 
submitted to the Committees shall include, for each component 
receiving Three Percent Fund support, a detailed description of 
programs, projects, and activities funded through the Three 
Percent Fund.
    Crime Victims Fund (CVF).--The Department shall provide 
monthly reports regarding CVF balances, deposits, recoveries, 
and obligations, including obligations associated with the 
Antiterrorism and Emergency Assistance Program. In addition, 
the Department is directed to submit as part of its annual 
spending plan a description of the CVF's allocation process, 
including the release of funds for the purposes of the 
Children's Justice Act (Public Law 99-401), discretionary 
grants provided by the Office for Victims of Crime (OVC), the 
U.S. Attorneys Offices' victim-witness coordinators, and the 
FBI's victim-witness specialists.
    Tribal Sovereign Immunity.--The agreement includes not less 
than $50,000 for the Office of Tribal Justice (OTJ) to consult 
with Tribal entities concerning risk management, loss 
prevention, the resolution of tort claims, alternative dispute 
resolution, and protecting and managing Tribal sovereign 
immunity in the context of economic development. OTJ is 
directed to report, not later than one year after the date of 
enactment of this Act, on the best practices for Tribal risk 
management.
    Sexual Harassment Policies.--The Department should be a 
leader in maintaining a model workplace and is encouraged to 
collaborate with other Federal agencies on the development of 
policies regarding sexual harassment and sexual misconduct.
    Multi-Disciplinary Task Force Addressing Human Trafficking 
in International Waters.--The Department has failed to meet the 
directives and reporting deadlines, including the submission of 
a final report in March 2019, originally set in Senate Report

include any funding for headquarters construction. The FBI is 
encouraged to work with the General Services Administration to 
submit a prospectus for a new, fully-consolidated headquarters 
building, including at one of the three previously vetted 
sites, which complies with prior Congressional directives and 
meets all Interagency Security Committee Level V security 
standards.
    21st Century Facilities.--The agreement continues to 
support the FBI's long-term vision for collocating 
complementary mission operations while balancing the eventual 
transition into a new headquarters building with changing 
footprints at Quantico, Clarksburg, Huntsville, and Pocatello 
facilities. The delay in the new FBI headquarters project only 
exacerbates the need to secure viable space for supporting a 
variety of mission, workforce, and land requirements. The 
agreement provides funding at no less than the fiscal year 2020 
enacted level to further support the FBI's 21st Century 
Facility plans, and the FBI is encouraged to transition from 
interim facilities to full operating capabilities, including 
plans for technological requirements. As part of this 21st 
Century Facility planning, the FBI should continue to research 
the feasibility of using public-private partnership 
opportunities, provided that the annual lease and operating 
costs are reasonable and the facilities can be securely 
constructed and maintained at a level that meets the FBI's 
requirements.

                    Drug Enforcement Administration


                         SALARIES AND EXPENSES

    The agreement includes a direct appropriation of 
$2,336,263,000 for the salaries and expenses of the DEA. In 
addition, DEA expects to derive $460,499,000 from fees 
deposited in the Diversion Control Fund to carry out the 
Diversion Control Program, resulting in $2,796,762,000 in total 
spending authority for DEA. The agreement includes $10,000,000 
to assist State, local, and Tribal law enforcement agencies in 
efforts to remove and dispose of hazardous materials at 
methamphetamine and fentanyl labs and processing operations. 
DEA is encouraged to issue regional contracts with small 
businesses, to the maximum extent practical, from the region 
served by the contract.
    Remote Prescribing of Controlled Substances.--DEA is 
directed to complete the requirements under section 3232 of the 
SUPPORT for Patients and Communities Act (Public Law 115-271) 
to promulgate regulations clarifying the limited circumstances 
in which Special Registration for Telemedicine may occur under 
the Ryan Haight Act (Public Law 110-425). DEA is further 
directed to brief the Committees on the status of these 
regulations not later than 30 days after the date of enactment 
of this Act.
    Special Agent Staffing.--The agreement supports DEA's 
efforts to reverse the decline in special agent staffing to 
combat the ongoing methamphetamine and opioid crises, 
particularly in geographic areas most broadly harmed by 
methamphetamine and opioid trafficking.
    Hemp Testing Technology.--DEA has developed field testing 
kits that can distinguish between hemp and marijuana on-the-
spot. DEA is directed to continue to work to ensure State and 
local law enforcement have access to this field test technology 
so they can more efficiently conduct their drug interdiction 
efforts at the local level. DEA is further directed to report 
back, not later than 180 days after the date of enactment of 
this Act, and not less than every 6 months thereafter, until 
such time as testing kits are deployed to State and local law 
enforcement in the field.
    Interdiction of Methamphetamines.--DEA is encouraged to 
consider whether Operation Crystal Shield should be expanded to 
additional U.S. locations that may serve as methamphetamine 
trafficking transportation hubs.
    Delivery of a Controlled Substance by a Pharmacy to an 
Administering Practitioner.--DEA is directed to provide a 
briefing, not later than 30 days after the date of enactment of 
this Act, on its implementation of section 3204 of Public Law 
115-271, and to ensure that providers and patients have access 
to all medication-assisted treatment options to address the 
opioid epidemic. This update should detail DEA's efforts to 
inform providers and dispensers of the new provisions and how 
they apply to FDA-approved opioid dependence treatment 
products.
    Illegal Tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) Vaping Products.--DEA is 
directed to report, not later than 180 days after the date of 
enactment of this Act, on its efforts to interdict illicit 
vaping cartridges containing THC. This report shall assess how 
and to what extent such products are being marketed to 
children.

                              CONSTRUCTION

    Expanded Laboratory Capacity in Order to Meet Testing 
Demands.--DEA field offices face a growing unmet demand for 
drug testing, particularly when division, district, and 
resident offices are not located in close proximity to a 
testing laboratory in the DEA Laboratory System. This issue is 
a critical risk for areas of the country that have been hardest 
hit by increases in synthetic drugs, including fentanyl, as 
well as rural offices or those divisions that do not have their 
own laboratories, as agents must drive long distances to reach 
the nearest laboratory for testing. The agreement provides 
$50,000,000 to construct a new laboratory, including other 
required facilities like warehouse space, to meet the growing 
needs for drug testing, including fentanyl, in the New England 
region.

          Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives


                         SALARIES AND EXPENSES

    The agreement includes $1,483,887,000 for the salaries and 
expenses of the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and 
Explosives.
    Crime Gun Intelligence Centers (CGICs).--There are 
currently 25 CGIC sites across the country and ATF is 
encouraged to work with additional high-risk areas to identify 
solutions and metrics to demonstrate meaningful reductions in 
illegal gun trafficking and related violent crime.
    United States-Mexico Firearms Trafficking.--ATF is directed 
to continue to provide to the Committees the information 
required by the explanatory statement accompanying Public Law 
116-93.
    Notification of Local Authorities.--ATF is encouraged to, 
when possible, notify local law enforcement when a felon in 
their jurisdiction tries to buy a firearm. If a NICS check is 
not completed within three days and a felon obtains a firearm, 
ATF is encouraged to notify and utilize the help of local law 
enforcement in retrieving the firearm.
    House report language under ``Illegal Firearms'' and 
``Ghost Guns'' is not adopted.

                         Federal Prison System


                         SALARIES AND EXPENSES

                     (INCLUDING TRANSFER OF FUNDS)

    The agreement includes $7,708,375,000 for the salaries and 
expenses of the Federal Prison System. The agreement fully 
funds the requested $409,483,000 for programs and activities 
authorized by the First Step Act of 2018, including medication-
assisted treatment.
    For fiscal year 2021, within the funding provided, the 
Department is directed to continue following the directives in 
Senate Report 116-127, as adopted by Public Law 116-93, on the 
following topics: ``First Step Act (FSA) Implementation,'' 
``Additional Requirements of the FSA,'' ``Residential Reentry 
Centers,'' and ``Freedom of Information Act Records''.
    BOP is expected to hire additional full-time correctional 
officers in order to reduce the overreliance on augmentation 
and improve staffing beyond mission-critical levels in custody 
and all other departments, including medical, counseling, and 
educational positions. BOP shall provide quarterly reports to 
the Committees on the use of augmentation broken out by region, 
institution, and security level for each time such practice is 
employed. In addition, BOP shall include with its fiscal year 
2022 budget submission, and each year thereafter, a detailed 
report for each Federal correctional facility at which two or 
more Federal inmates have died in one calendar year, describing 
each incident and the role augmentation may have played in 
exacerbating the inherent dangers present at those locations.
    Hiring, Staffing, and Inmate-to-Officer Ratios.--BOP shall 
continue to submit quarterly reports on inmate-to-correctional 
officer ratio as required by the explanatory statement 
accompanying Public Law 116-93, and to publish these reports on 
the BOP website. To the extent BOP does not currently record 
staffing by shift, it is directed to begin doing so and include 
such metrics in this report by the end of fiscal year 2021. 
Separately, BOP shall submit a report to the Committees 
regarding any incident involving the use of deadly force at an 
institution with a staffing ratio greater than 15:1, explaining 
any role staffing levels may have played in the incident, and 
describing a detailed plan to prevent recurrence of such 
incidents.
    Vacancies.--BOP is directed to improve hiring policies to 
ensure that, within the funding provided, it can promptly fill 
existing and future vacancies in order to staff its 122 Federal 
facilities at January 2016 levels, and forgo further position 
eliminations. BOP shall report not later than 90 days after the 
date of enactment of this Act on the number of vacancies at 
each facility, further detailed by job title, job series, and 
General Schedule level as well as the number of applicants 
going through the hiring process for each vacant position. DOJ 
is directed to explore ways to expedite BOP hiring, such as 
working with OPM to provide expedited hiring for BOP facilities 
with vacancy rates exceeding ten percent and making use of 
recruitment and retention bonuses. BOP shall describe such 
efforts in the aforementioned report.
    BOP is directed to continue to ensure at least two 
correctional officers are on duty for each housing unit for all 
three shifts at all high-security institutions, including 
United States Penitentiaries and Administrative and Federal 
Detention Centers. BOP is directed to continue to submit 
quarterly reports showing compliance with this directive and to 
provide a cost estimate and strategic plan for implementation 
at medium-security institutions that currently do not have a 
second officer for all three shifts.
    Inmate Health Care.--GAO is directed to examine inmate 
healthcare, including, but not limited to: the percentage of 
inmates that receive medical assistance under a State plan 
under title XIX of the Social Security Act (42 U.S.C. 1396 et 
seq.); inmate access to healthcare services and providers, 
including specialty care; the quality of healthcare services 
provided to inmates; the percentage of inmates who, upon 
release, are enrolled under such a State plan and connected to 
a primary care provider in their community; and trends in the 
prevalence and incidence of illness and injury among inmates.
    Inmate Mental Health Care and Restrictive Housing.--BOP is 
encouraged to continue to develop evidence-based policies and 
appropriate facilities to enable BOP to operate safely while 
properly caring for inmates with mental illness, and to 
expeditiously submit its report on the resolution of 
recommendations from the July 2017 OIG report on ways to 
improve BOP screening, treatment, and monitoring of inmates 
with mental illness in restrictive housing units. BOP is also 
directed, within the funding provided, to reduce the number of 
Federal inmates in restrictive housing, including by opening 
transition units and other specialized units for populations 
often sent to restrictive housing, and by working with regional 
directors and wardens to address the widespread reliance on 
restrictive housing.
    Contraband Cell Phones in Prison Facilities.-- The 
agreement supports the budget request for contraband cellphone 
detection technology. BOP is directed to submit, not later than 
180 days after the date of enactment of this Act, either a 
detailed plan for the deployment of a whole-complex jamming 
pilot, or an exhaustive explanation of the rationale, including 
health and safety considerations, that would necessarily 
preclude such a deployment.
    Land Mobile Radio (LMR) Communications.--BOP is directed to 
develop a plan to update its LMR and video security systems in 
facilities where aging communications infrastructure and 
equipment pose a threat to officer safety, and to submit the 
plan to the Committees not later than 180 days after the date 
of enactment of this Act.
    Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT).--BOP shall consider 
all three forms of FDA-approved MAT as it expands access, and 
is expected to continue hiring healthcare staff, including 
physicians, pharmacists, nurses, and drug counselors, in order 
to properly meet inmates' medical needs, including those 
receiving MAT. BOP is directed to continue to report quarterly 
on the number of individuals who are screened for MAT, are 
seeking MAT, have received MAT, or are on a wait list for MAT. 
These categories should be further broken out by institution or 
residential reentry center (RRC) and type of MAT.
    Procurement of Food Products.--BOP is directed to report to 
the Committees not later than 30 days after the date of 
enactment of this Act on how it is implementing the 
recommendations in the March 2020 OIG Management Advisory 
Memorandum on food procurement to ensure such food meets 
contract specifications and does not endanger the health of 
inmates and staff. BOP is further directed to examine how it 
can leverage contracts and services with local and regional 
businesses, including farmers, ranchers, food processors and 
other food vendors in order to lower costs while providing 
higher quality meals, and report on its findings not later than 
180 days after the date of enactment of this Act.
    Inmate Access to Mail.--BOP is directed to implement and 
expand solutions, like those that allow photographs or 
handwritten letters to be scanned and reprinted at secure off-
site locations and mailed directly to a correctional facility, 
or allow digital photographs and letters to be uploaded through 
a website or app and then printed at and mailed from a secure 
location, which are capable of eliminating the risk of 
contraband while maintaining inmates' access to mail from 
friends and family. Such solutions should not require 
additional equipment or changes to current infrastructure, 
should address any specific concerns relating to legal mail, 
and should ensure the highest degree of fidelity between the 
facsimiles and the originals. BOP is further directed to 
report, not later than 180 days of the date of enactment of 
this Act, on the status of mail scanning pilot programs 
currently occurring at two institutions, the resources needed 
to further expand solutions to mitigate the threat of 
contraband in mail to inmates, and to identify those resources 
requirements in its fiscal year 2022 budget request.
    Subsistence Fees.--In lieu of House section 551, BOP is 
directed to report to the Committees, no later than 60 days 
after the date of enactment of this Act, on its current and 
planned efforts to notify persons in RRCs of the procedures for 
applying for subsistence fee waivers.
    Communicable Diseases and Prisons.--The incarcerated 
population faces significantly higher risks of acquiring a 
communicable disease. BOP policy requires that prison protocols 
include an assessment of inmate immunizations and the provision 
of basic medical care, including hepatitis B and C testing and 
treatment, as well as preventive health services such as 
immunizations. However, the OIG reported in 2016 that some BOP 
facilities were not complying with this policy. The Department 
is directed to report not later than 270 days after enactment 
of the Act on the progress of efforts to achieve compliance 
with the protocols since the 2016 OIG report. The report should 
identify gaps in services and barriers to provision of 
immunization services; identify potential collaborations with 
health organizations to address identified disparities; and 
recommend ways to close them.
    Home Confinement.--In lieu of the House report language, 
the agreement directs BOP to submit a report, not later than 60 
days after the date of enactment of this Act, on home 
confinement and compassionate release. This report shall 
address the eligibility determination process, as well as 
implementation of home confinement-related provisions of the 
First Step Act and the Attorney General's memoranda dated March 
26, 2020 and April 3, 2020. The report should further provide 
an update required by the explanatory statement accompanying 
Public Law 116-93.

                        BUILDINGS AND FACILITIES

    The agreement includes $127,000,000 for the construction, 
acquisition, modernization, maintenance, and repair of prison 
and detention facilities housing Federal inmates. BOP shall 
proceed with ongoing planned and associated new construction 
efforts to meet projected capacity requirements, as identified 
in its monthly status of construction reports to the 
Committees. BOP is directed to continue to provide such reports 
on a monthly basis, along with notifications and explanations 
of any deviation from construction and activation schedules, 
and any planned adjustments or corrective actions.
    Modernization and Repair (M&R) of Existing Facilities.--BOP 
is expected to apply the funding to reduce its longstanding M&R 
backlog, and is directed to prioritize funding for repairs that 
protect life and safety, and at facilities assessed as having 
deficiencies of a geological and seismic nature. BOP shall 
continue to provide monthly status of construction reports and 
notify the Committee of any changes reflected in those reports. 
BOP is further directed to continue providing a schedule and 
timeline for repairs of facilities with geological and seismic 
deficiencies and include updates in the monthly M&R reports.

   LIMITATION ON ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES, FEDERAL PRISON INDUSTRIES, 
                              INCORPORATED

    The agreement includes a limitation on administrative 
expenses of $2,700,000 for Federal Prison Industries, 
Incorporated.

               State and Local Law Enforcement Activities

    In total, the agreement includes $3,385,300,000 for State 
and local law enforcement and crime prevention programs. This 
amount includes $2,950,300,000 in discretionary budget 
authority, and $435,000,000 derived by transfer from the Crime 
Victims Fund. The agreement also includes $119,000,000 scored 
as mandatory for Public Safety Officer Benefits.
    For fiscal year 2021, the Department is directed to 
continue following the directives required by Public Law 116-
93, on the following topics: ``Management and Administration 
Expenses,'' ``Grant Funds for Rural Areas,'' ``Science Advisory 
Board,'' ``Post-Conviction Relief for Trafficking Victims,'' 
``Consent Decrees and Grant Assistance,'' and ``Peer-to-Peer 
Training.''

    Submission of Officer Training Information.--The Department 
has been directed to collect data on officer training each 
subsequent year as part of both the Edward Byrne Memorial 
Justice Assistance Grants (Byrne-JAG) and COPS Hiring 
application processes, including the number and rank of 
officers trained, as well as the type of training, including 
use of force, de-escalation, racial and ethnic bias, and 
community engagement. This data was directed to be provided to 
BJS in order to begin a data set on officer training. The 
public report and publication of a data set, required by Public 
Law 116-93, is overdue, and the Department is directed to 
release it immediately.
    Grant Funding Set-Asides.--The Department is directed to

jurisdiction program within the Office on Violence Against 
Women (OVW). In addition, a total of $52,589,255 is provided to 
Tribal governments and Tribal coalitions in OVW funding as part 
of set-asides determined by program statute. For Tribal 
assistance grants within OJP, funding is to be used to support 
efforts to help Tribes improve the capacity of their criminal 
and civil justice systems. OJP is expected to consult closely 
with Tribal stakeholders in determining how Tribal assistance 
funds will be awarded for detention facilities, including 
outdated detention facilities that are unfit for detention 
purposes and beyond rehabilitation; courts; alcohol and 
substance abuse programs; civil and criminal legal assistance; 
and other priorities. OJP is directed to submit, as part of the 
Department's spending plan for fiscal year 2021, a plan for the 
use of these funds that is informed by such consultation.
    The agreement also includes a 5 percent set-aside for 
Tribes within the CVF. OVC is directed to consult closely with 
Tribal stakeholders to improve services for Tribal victims of 
crime, to include expanded purpose areas described in the OVC 
final rule effective August 8, 2016. OVC shall continue to 
follow direction required by Public Law 116-93 regarding grant 
application requirements, accountability, and assistance. The 
Department is directed to give Tribes maximum flexibility in 
use of funds in order to best meet the unique needs of victims 
in Tribal communities. The Department is also directed to 
streamline administrative requirements as much as possible to 
increase accessibility for those most in need in Indian 
Country.
    Human Trafficking in Indian Country.--The Department is 
encouraged, in coordination with the Departments of the 
Interior and Health and Human Services, to work to address the 
need for and impact of Federal grant assistance regarding human 
trafficking in Indian Country, to ensure that Federal dollars 
are used effectively and efficiently. The Department is 
directed to report, not later than 180 days after the date of 
enactment of this Act, on its efforts to coordinate Federal 
grant programs to address trafficking in Indian Country. This 
report should compile data on the severity of the problem and 
the impact of grant assistance and identify instances of high 
administrative costs or burdens within programs.
    STOP School Violence Act Grants.--In lieu of House report 
language on school design, the Department is encouraged to 
continue its ongoing work with the Departments of Homeland 
Security and Education through the School Safety Clearinghouse, 
which facilitates and coordinates interagency efforts to assess 
and share best practices related to school security resources, 
technologies, and innovations as well as identify safe school 
design practices for use by education agencies, law enforcement 
agencies, schools, architects, and engineers. The agreement 
includes a total of $132,000,000 for STOP School Violence 
grants, and this funding is directed to be distributed for 
covered purpose areas provided under the STOP School Violence 
Act of 2018.
    DOJ Grant Oversight.--The Department is encouraged to 
review its multi-year grant award processes and protocols to 
ensure grantees have fully complied with the rules of year-one 
funding before year-two funding is disbursed in multi-year 
grant awards, and to continue efforts to identify high-risk 
grantees, so as to increase fiscal responsibility throughout 
the grant making process. It is recommended that the Department 
promptly complete and publish an internal review of the 
program, to inform efforts to implement a high-risk grantee 
designation in other Federal agencies.

    Spending Plans.--The Department is directed to submit, as 
part of its spending plan for State and Local Law Enforcement 
Activities, a plan for the use of all funding administered by 
the National Institute of Justice (NIJ) and the Bureau of 
Justice Statistics (BJS), respectively, for approval by the 
Committees prior to the obligation of any such funds.
    Study on Reducing Racial Disparities.--In lieu of House 
language, the Department is directed to award a research grant 
for an evidence-based, nonpartisan analysis of existing 
evidence to examine how observed racial and ethnic disparities 
in the justice system might be reduced through public policy. 
The study should be awarded via a competitive grant process 
open to all applicants to promote the most rigorous research to 
be applied to this important question.
    Law Enforcement Management and Administrative Statistics 
(LEMAS) Survey.--BJS is directed to immediately begin the next 
installment of the LEMAS survey if it has not already done so, 
in order to complete publication by September 30, 2021. BJS is 
further directed to submit a plan to publish this data on a 
more regular schedule, and to identify the resources necessary 
for that purpose, not later than 90 days after the date of 
enactment of this Act.
    Pretrial Detention.--In lieu of House report language 
regarding pretrial detention, it is expected that the results 
from the National Pretrial Reporting Program (NPRP), and Local 
Jails Reporting Program (LJRP) will fill the gap in currently 
collected data on the pretrial population and produce estimates 
of the demographic breakdown, types of offenses, and bail 
characteristics of the pretrial population.
    Prison Suicide Incidence Report.--In lieu of House report 
language regarding Prison Suicide Incidence Reporting, the BJS 
shall submit to the Committees a report detailing a 
comprehensive statistical review and analysis of the incidence 
of prison suicide not later than 180 days after the date of 
enactment of this Act. The statistical review and analysis 
should include the identification of the common characteristics 
of victims of prison suicide and prisons and prison systems 
with a high incidence of prison suicide. In addition, the 
Department is directed to include recommendations for possible 
mitigation strategies and changes to Federal laws and 
regulations.
    Death in Custody Reporting Act (DCRA.)--In a December 2018 
report, the OIG examined DCRA compliance and found that BJS had 
abandoned three different proposals for data collection, 
thereby delaying the process until fiscal year 2021. BJS is 
requested to publish the collections for fiscal years 2017, 
2018, 2019, and 2020 by September 30, 2021. If that deadline 
cannot be met, BJS must notify the Committees as to the reason 
for the delay.
    Research to Reduce Trauma for Child Pornography Victims.--
The agreement provides $1,500,000 for NIJ to administer a 
competitive grant to an accredited research university for a 
study of best practices to reduce the trauma of children 
affected by child pornography investigations. While some best 
practices have been adopted by law enforcement agencies who 
investigate these crimes, often referrals, access, and 
utilization of services for child victims remains sporadic and 
inconsistent. As a result, this study should produce a report 
with concrete recommendations for improving and synchronizing 
law enforcement best practices for ensuring child victims' 
well-being during and after the investigation into the crime.
    National Model for Reducing Incarceration Rates for Minor 
Parole Violations.--Poor coordination within the criminal 
justice system, coupled with a lack of support systems for 
affected individuals, can result in unnecessary incarceration 
rates, create a heavy financial burden for States and 
localities, and impose employment losses and societal costs on 
the incarcerated and their friends and family. To address these 
issues, this agreement includes $4,000,000 for grants to 
academic partners who can design and test models, to expedite 
judicial review for technical violations of supervision, while 
linking individuals to evidence-based services that address the 
root causes of recidivism. Grantees should work to produce and 
test models that can be replicated on a national scale.
    Research on Counter Unmanned Aircraft Systems (C-UAS).--
This agreement supports the Department's efforts to address and 
mitigate the threats to public safety and national security 
caused by UAS. This agreement includes $2,000,000 for NIJ to 
support the research, testing, and evaluation of C-UAS in DOJ 
law enforcement operations. The agreement recommends this 
research, testing, and evaluation be conducted with Federal 
Aviation Administration-designated UAS Test Sites.
    Understanding the Effects of Human Trafficking.--Within the 
funds provided, NIJ is directed to develop and conduct studies 
consistent with those required by section 201(a)(1) of the 
Trafficking Victims Protection Act of 2005 (34 U.S.C. 
20701(a)(1)). Furthermore, this agreement reiterates the 
Committees' previous direction for NIJ to conduct a study on 
the physical and psychological effects of severe forms of human 
trafficking, as required by section 20 of Public Law 115-392. 
NIJ is directed to provide a status report on this study not 
later than 30 days after the date of enactment of this Act.
    Interruption of Health Care Coverage in Pre-Trial 
Settings.--NIJ is encouraged to study the impact of the 
interruption of medical, mental health, and addiction treatment 
coverage in pre-trial settings on individuals' health coverage, 
reentry, and on State and local criminal justice budgets.
    Data-Driven Policing and Courts.--NIJ is encouraged to fund 
multi-year grants to educational institutions that have shown 
excellence in criminal justice data-driven analysis and 
decision-making, implementation science, and training. Grant 
recipients should focus on increasing utilization of data 
interventions proven effective and backed by research findings 
at the State and local level, and on developing systems to 
standardize courts and corrections data. Applicants should 
propose how they would work with surrounding States to develop 
a regional profile on crime and criminal justice and serve as a 
repository for data that can be readily used for program 
solving, analysis, and evaluation.
    Correctional Education Evaluation.--NIJ is directed to 
establish a public-private partnership with research and 
correctional institutions to collect and evaluate data to 
continue to advance the research on the impact of correctional 
education on recidivism.
    Research on Gunshot Detection Technology (GDT).--In lieu of 
the House report language regarding gunshot detection, the 
Committees note that funding provided to NIJ in fiscal year 
2015 supported a research project titled, ``Evaluating Gunshot 
Detection Technology to Aid in the Reduction of Firearms 
Violence''. The results of this project were published in 
September 2019 as NCJ Number 254283, and this report is 
publicly available online. NIJ is encouraged to update this 
research effort, including the review of new advancements in 
GDT technology and the expanded number of site locations.
    Data on Police Suicide.--BJS was directed to start the 
process of maintaining a data set on police suicide for 
Federal, State, and local law enforcement by Public Law 116-93. 
As with the data collection on officer training described under 
``Submission of Officer Training Information'' under State and 
Local Law Enforcement Activities, the Department is directed to 
request that State and local law enforcement report on police 
suicides within their agencies as part of both the Byrne-JAG 
and COPS Hiring Program application processes. As BJS also 
maintains the DCRA data collection, the methods used for DCRA 
could also be applied to gain data on police suicide. The 
agreement provides $3,000,000 to assist with this effort and 
directs that BJS brief the Committees, not later than 60 days 
after the date of enactment of this Act, on the status of this 
data collection, methods for obtaining better data from law 
enforcement agencies, and ongoing resource needs. A public 
report with full data analysis is to be released by September 
30, 2021, and data shall be collected and published annually.

               STATE AND LOCAL LAW ENFORCEMENT ASSISTANCE

                     (INCLUDING TRANSFER OF FUNDS)

    The agreement includes $1,914,000,000 for State and Local 
Law Enforcement Assistance programs. These funds are

    Total State and Local Law Enforcement Assistance...       $1,914,000
------------------------------------------------------------------------

    For fiscal year 2021, DOJ is directed to follow prior year 
report language, included in Senate Report 116-127 and adopted 
in Public Law 116-93, on ``Capital Litigation Improvement and 
Wrongful Conviction Review'', ``Project Safe Neighborhoods'', 
``Group Violence Intervention (GVI)'', ``Gunfire Detection 
Technology'', ``Grants to Combat Human Trafficking'', ``Patrick 
Leahy Bulletproof Vest Partnership Grant Program'', ``Sexual 
Assault Kit Initiative'', and ``Keep Young Athletes Safe Act''.
    Law Enforcement Training.--In lieu of House report language 
regarding law enforcement training, the agreement recognizes 
that training with regard to use of force, racial profiling, 
implicit bias, procedural justice, efforts to gain 
accreditation, development of uniform standards, implementation 
of innovative law enforcement and non-law enforcement 
strategies, and the establishment of crisis intervention teams 
can be among the permissible uses of Byrne-JAG funding.
    High-Risk Vehicle Events.--The National Incident-Based 
Reporting System (NIBRS) data collection currently captures a 
subset of deaths or injuries associated with vehicular 
pursuits, including deaths or injuries to law enforcement 
officers and deaths of suspects. In lieu of House report 
language regarding data on high-risk vehicle events, BJS is 
encouraged to study the feasibility of developing a data 
collection process that more accurately captures the number of 
deaths and injuries from police pursuit and high-risk vehicle 
events, and include an analysis of the potential obstacles to 
capturing such data as well as data on bystanders injured or 
killed during police pursuits.
    Smart Policing.--The agreement includes $8,000,000 for 
Smart Policing. DOJ is directed to prioritize applications for 
the development of real-time crime centers in communities with 
high rates of violent and gun crime.
    Officer Training on Responding to People with Mental 
Illness or Disabilities.--The agreement includes $7,500,000 for 
a competitive grant program to award grants to State and local 
law enforcement and correctional entities to educate, train, 
and prepare officers so that they are equipped to appropriately 
interact with mentally ill or disabled individuals in the 
course of completing their job responsibilities. This training 
should be developed in conjunction with healthcare 
professionals to provide crisis intervention training focused 
on understanding mental and behavioral health, developing 
empathy, navigating community resources, de-escalation skills, 
and practical application training for all first responders. 
OJP is expected to track the results of this grant program in 
order to better establish best practices for law enforcement 
agencies. OJP is directed to submit a plan for implementing 
this grant program as part of the fiscal year 2021 spending 
plan.
    National Center on Forensics.--The agreement includes 
$4,000,000 for a National Center on Forensics. The National 
Center on Forensics shall be housed at an accredited university 
of higher education, with medical and law schools affiliated 
within the same university system, and work in partnership with 
a full-service and independent State department of forensic 
science with a medical examiner function, that is located in 
the same State as the partner accredited university. The Center 
is to provide medico-legal learning opportunities for medical 
students to train as deputy medical examiners/coroners in 
underserved rural areas; provide forensic science and legal 
training to district attorneys, judges, and law enforcement; 
and develop opportunities as appropriate among the designated 
partners to benefit current and future practitioners in the 
field.
    National Center on Restorative Justice.--The agreement 
provides $3,000,000 to continue a partnership with an 
accredited university of higher education and/or law school for 
the purposes of supporting a National Center on Restorative 
Justice to educate and train the next generation of justice 
leaders. The Center shall also continue to support research 
focusing on how best to provide direct services to address 
social inequities, such as simultaneous access to substance 
abuse treatment and higher education. Further, the Center shall 
expand educational opportunities for those under sentence and 
in a court-supervised substance abuse program, and, through 
research and evaluation, the Center shall disseminate reports 
on the impact of attitudes, recidivism, and costs of the 
educational initiatives.
    Ashanti Alert Act Implementation.--The agreement includes 
$1,000,000 for continued efforts to implement the Ashanti Alert 
Act (Public Law 115-401) in order to further establish this 
network that assists regional and local search efforts in 
locating missing adults. This funding shall be provided to 
directly assist State and local government and law enforcement 
in order to develop or expand their missing adult 
communications networks. OJP is directed to submit, no later 
than 90 days after the enactment of this Act, a status report 
on continued Ashanti Alert Act implementation.
    Family-Based Alternative Sentencing Pilot Programs.--
Several States have recently implemented family-based 
alternative sentencing pilot programs for parents, typically 
primary caregivers, who have been convicted of non-violent 
offenses. These programs allow parents to remain with their 
dependent children while receiving services, including drug 
treatment, job training, and counseling, rather than being 
incarcerated. The agreement includes $3,500,000 for grants in 
support of such programs, to demonstrate the extent to which 
these programs can reduce costs to the criminal justice and 
foster care systems. OJP is directed to provide a plan for this 
grant program to the Committees not later than 45 days after 
enactment of this Act.
    Child Advocacy Training.--The Report of the Attorney 
General's National Task Force on Children Exposed to Violence 
acknowledged the need to include curricula in post-secondary 
educational programs to ensure that every child- and family-
serving professional receives training in multiple evidence-
based methods for identifying and screening children for 
exposure to violence. The agreement includes $1,000,000 for a 
competitive grant program to support child advocacy training in 
undergraduate programming and continuing education. The grants 
should support the training of future mandated reporters and 
child protection professionals and support efforts across the 
country to train child protection professionals in the field, 
including law enforcement officers, social workers, mental and 
medical health professionals, and prosecutors.
    Rural Violent Crime Initiative.--The agreement includes 
$7,000,000 for a rural violent crime initiative, with grants to 
be awarded on a competitive basis to small law enforcement 
agencies in rural locations. Grants are to support improved 
training and technology, expanded community-based crime 
prevention programs, and partnerships with victim service 
providers. This initiative is intended to improve communication 
and collaboration between State, local, and Tribal law 
enforcement agencies and the communities they serve, to address 
the unique criminal justice challenges in rural areas.
    Community-Based Violence Prevention (CBVP).--The agreement 
includes $14,000,000 for CBVP and directs that these funds 
support evidence-based and data-driven intervention, 
prevention, and deterrence focused initiatives that aim to 
reduce violence. These initiatives should be focused on areas 
that are disproportionately impacted by violent crime including 
areas experiencing high rates of illegal firearms arrests and 
homicides. Projects are to be competitively awarded and require 
close collaboration among law enforcement, service providers, 
and community-based organizations. Projects shall employ 
community-based strategies including conflict mediation, street 
outreach, GVI, and hospital-based violence intervention 
programs associated with homicide reductions.
    Drug-Detection Canines.--The rise of drug trafficking, 
including that of methamphetamines, within the United States 
and along our borders has created increased demand for drug-
detection canines for local and State law enforcement. The 
Department is reminded that the purchase of drug detection 
canines is a permissible use of Byrne-JAG grant funds. The 
Department is directed to, where possible, further clarify 
within other existing programs, including the AFF's Equitable 
Sharing Program, that canines are a permissible use of Federal 
funding.
    Combatting Contraband Cell Phones in Prisons and Jails.--
OJP is directed to publicize that managed access systems and 
other mitigation technologies are a permissible use of Byrne-
JAG funds, including through statements on its website, in 
`FAQs,' and in Byrne-JAG solicitations. OJP is further directed 
to report, as part of its fiscal year 2021 spending plan, on 
the efforts it will take to promote awareness of these systems 
in future Byrne-JAG award cycles.
    Fentanyl Detection.--DOJ is encouraged to support the use 
of grant funds, such as Byrne-JAG funds, for the purchase of 
fentanyl detection equipment and training as well as naloxone 
distribution for law enforcement safety.
    Internet of Things Device Capabilities.--Currently, no 
database exists of capabilities of Internet of Things devices, 
for training on options and best practices for handling of 
evidence to meet judicial standards and privacy concerns. To 
meet this need, $2,000,000 shall be dedicated for a separate 
competitive grant program in order to provide four awards of 
not less than $500,000 each for institutions of higher learning 
that provide training in computer forensics and digital 
investigation to develop a database on Internet of Things 
device capabilities and to build and execute training modules 
for law enforcement.
    Paul Coverdell Forensic Science.--The agreement provides a 
total of $33,000,000, of which $17,000,000 is to specifically 
target the challenges the opioid and synthetic drug epidemic 
has brought to the forensics community, as required by the 
explanatory statement accompanying Public Law 116-93.
    Compliance with Statutory Requirements.--Section 3 of the 
Justice for All Reauthorization Act of 2016 (Public Law 114-
235) requires that, for fiscal year 2021, not less than 75 
percent of the amounts made available to the Attorney General 
for a DNA Analysis and capacity enhancement program and for 
other local, State, and Federal forensic activities be provided 
for grants for activities described under paragraphs (1), (2), 
and (3) of section 2(a) of the DNA Analysis Backlog Elimination 
Act of 2000 (Public Law 106-546). OJP is directed to comply 
with this requirement by ensuring that at least 75 percent of 
the amount appropriated for these programs is awarded for these 
purposes. Additionally, the Justice Served Act of 2018 (Public 
Law 115-257) requires that not more than 7 percent and not less 
than 5 percent of the funds allocated for the Debbie Smith DNA 
Backlog Grant Program be used for grants for prosecutors to 
increase the capacity of State and local prosecution offices to 
address cold cases involving violent crime, where suspects have 
been identified through DNA evidence. The Department is 
directed to implement the Justice Served Act of 2018 in 
accordance with the clear intent of Congress, and to ensure 
that not more than 7 percent and no less than 5 percent of the 
funds provided under the Debbie Smith program are allocated for 
the purpose of increasing the capacity of State and local 
prosecutors to address cold cases.
    Second Chance Act (SCA) Grants and Drug Treatment.--SCA 
funding is expected to support grants that foster the 
implementation of strategies that have been proven to reduce 
recidivism and ensure adults released from prisons and jails 
safely and successfully reenter their communities. The 
agreement supports the Office of Management and Budget's 
scoring mechanism for SCA grant funding as it relates to opioid 
abuse and the heroin epidemic. In addition, when awarding SCA 
grants, OJP is directed to consider the impact of reentry of 
prisoners on communities in which a disproportionate number of 
individuals reside upon release from incarceration. OJP shall 
assess the reentry burdens borne by local communities and local 
law enforcement agencies; review the resources available in 
such communities to support successful reentry and the extent 
to which those resources are used effectively; and make 
recommendations to strengthen the resources in such communities 
which are available to support successful reentry and to lessen 
the burden placed on such communities by the need to support 
reentry.
    Project HOPE Institute.--The agreement provides $4,500,000 
for Project HOPE, of which not less than $500,000 shall be 
directed to establishing a Project HOPE Institute to provide 
training, technical assistance, and best practices for 
jurisdictions replicating the HOPE model. As this same funding 
level was provided in fiscal year 2020, OJP is directed to 
submit a report, no later than 90 days after the enactment of 
this Act, describing the efforts to establish a Project HOPE 
Institute and the assistance provided in replicating the HOPE 
model.
    Comprehensive Addiction and Recovery Act (CARA) Programs.--
OJP is directed that funding for the Comprehensive Opioid, 
Stimulant, and Substance Abuse Program (COSSAP) be focused on 
prevention and education efforts, effective responses to those 
affected by substance abuse, and services for treatment and 
recovery from addiction. Of the $185,000,000 for COSSAP, no 
less than $11,000,000 shall be made available for additional 
replication sites employing the Law Enforcement Assisted 
Diversion (LEAD) model, with applicants demonstrating a plan 
for sustainability of LEAD-model diversion programs; no less 
than $5,500,000 shall be made available for education and 
prevention programs to connect law enforcement agencies with K-
12 students; and no less than $10,500,000 shall be made 
available for embedding social services with law enforcement in 
order to rapidly respond to drug overdoses where children are 
impacted.
    OJP is encouraged to ensure that funds provided for 
residential substance abuse treatment for State prisoners are 
being used to treat underlying mental health disorders, in 
addition to substance abuse disorders. Within the funding 
provided for drug courts, OJP is encouraged to give attention 
to States and localities that have the highest concentrations 
of opioid-related cases, and to prioritize assistance to 
underserved areas whose criminal defendants currently have 
relatively little opportunity to access drug courts and 
coordinate, as appropriate, with other Federal agencies such as 
the Department of Health and Human Services, as it implements 
these activities in order to avoid duplication. OJP is directed 
to include appropriate long-acting medications, including 
injectable anti-psychotic medication, as an allowable expense 
to improve treatment adherence and reduce risk for relapse and 
re-incarceration.
    Additionally, the Department is urged to provide funding in 
accordance with section 14002 of the 21st Century CURES Act of 
2016 (Public Law 114-255) for court-ordered assisted outpatient 
treatment as authorized in law. Finally, the 21st Century CURES 
Act authorized the funding of Forensic Assertive Community 
Treatment (FACT) Initiatives as part of the adult and juvenile 
collaboration program grants. OJP is encouraged to make funding 
available for FACT Initiatives within these programs.
    Body-Worn Camera Partnership Program.--It is recommended 
that jurisdictions continue to: (1) develop camera policies and 
procedures with community input; (2) commit to a set of narrow 
and well-defined purposes for which cameras and their footage 
may be used; (3) specify clear operational policies for 
recording, retention, and access; (4) require training for both 
the proper use of body-worn cameras and for the handling and 
use of the obtained video and audio recordings; (5) ensure that 
prior to use of body-worn cameras, privacy and data retention 
policies are already in place; and (6) as appropriate, make 
footage available to promote accountability with necessary 
privacy safeguards. In addition, OJP is requested to update the 
Body-Worn Camera Toolkit on an annual basis with any new 
information, data, and best practices and keep it publicly 
available on its website.
    Justice Reinvestment Initiative (JRI).--Jurisdictions may 
use the JRI to reduce recidivism; control the size of 
corrections populations, either incarcerated or on community 
supervision; reduce crime; and create budgetary solutions to 
better balance correctional costs within a State's budget. 
Justice reinvestment is used to implement data-driven 
strategies to improve public safety by reducing corrections 
spending and reinvesting those savings in efforts to decrease 
crime and strengthen neighborhoods. Funding may be used to 
provide technical assistance to States with existing justice 
reinvestment programs to further such programs; provide 
technical assistance to additional States to expand the justice 
reinvestment initiative to those jurisdictions; or provide 
funding to States with existing justice reinvestment 
initiatives to expand or enhance the State's self-identified 
justice reinvestment initiative goals. Justice reinvestment 
funds shall not be restricted by Federal agencies for use on 
specific programs or policy initiatives, and States shall be

    For fiscal year 2021, the Department is directed to 
continue following the directives as required by Public Law 
116-93, on the following topics: ``Implementation of the 
Juvenile Justice Reform Act of 2018'', ``Juvenile Diversion 
Programs'', and ``ICAC Training''.
    Part B: State Formula Grants.--OJP is directed to submit as 
part of its spending plan for State and Local Law Enforcement 
Activities a plan for the administration of Part B State 
Formula Grants, including details pertaining to the formulas 
utilized in awarding grants under this heading. OJP is further 
directed to submit a report not later than one year after the 
date of enactment of this Act describing the types of programs 
that grantees are using their formula grant funding to support.
    DOJ is urged to encourage Title II grant recipients to 
coordinate with their State education agencies to support 
continuity of education opportunities for adjudicated youth and 
to continue its efforts to institute reforms to ensure States' 
compliance with the Title II core requirements. The Department 
shall report to the Committees on these efforts not later than 
60 days after the date of enactment of this Act.
    Arts Programs and Therapies for At-Risk and Justice-
Involved Youth.--The agreement supports the use and 
implementation of arts-based programs and therapies at various 
points in the juvenile justice system as a way to work 
collaboratively across sectors to achieve system improvements 
and positive outcomes for youth. As a result, OJJDP is directed 
to review opportunities to include arts-based methods for 
prevention, diversion, and residential grant programs, and to 
provide a report to the Committees, not later than 90 days 
after the date of enactment of this Act, on the OJJDP programs 
providing options for these programs and therapies.
    Youth Mentoring Grants.--Within the funds provided for 
Youth Mentoring Grants, $16,500,000 is for helping youth 
impacted by substance abuse, including opioids and 
methamphetamine. OJJDP is expected to take all steps necessary 
to ensure fairness and objectivity in the award of these and 
future competitive grants. OJP and OJJDP are expected to 
maintain expanded eligibility for local mentoring programs, 
particularly in rural areas, unaffiliated with national 
mentoring organizations. OJP and OJJDP are also expected to 
collaborate with mentoring stakeholders to expand youth 
mentoring services in rural areas inordinately affected by 
substance abuse and that are considered at-risk.
    Victims of Child Abuse Act.--For the various programs 
authorized under the Victims of Child Abuse Act (Public Law 
101-647), OJJDP is directed to ensure that not less than 90 
percent of the grants awarded are for the purposes of 
developing and maintaining children's advocacy centers (CAC), 
including training and accreditation. OJJDP is further directed 
to ensure the funds intended to support local CACs are used 
efficiently with the highest percentage possible of Federal 
funding expended for local CAC organizational capacity, which 
is essential for the effective support of implementing the 
multidisciplinary response to child abuse investigation, 
prosecution, and intervention services. Within the funds 
provided, $5,000,000 shall be for Regional Children's Advocacy 
Centers (RCACs) Programs.
    The agreement supports efforts by CACs to use their unique 
model and expertise to help military installations address 
cases of child abuse, and again provides $1,000,000 from within 
the funds provided to continue to support a pilot project to 
identify, develop, and operationalize best practices. As this 
effort has been funded since fiscal year 2017, OJJDP is 
directed to report on the status of this pilot, including the 
locations of CACs and military installations working together, 
the number of children served through these partnerships, and 
lessons learned from this pilot program.
    Missing and Exploited Children Programs.--With the 
exception of funding directives, direction in the House report 
on Missing and Exploited Children Programs stands. The 
agreement includes $94,000,000 for these programs and the 
Department is directed to distribute the increased amount 
proportionally among Missing and Exploited Children programs, 
excluding research and technical assistance activities.
    Furthermore, OJP is directed to provide a plan for the use 
of these funds as part of the Department's spending plan for 
fiscal year 2021, which shall include investments in authorized 
national programs that serve as a resource center and 
clearinghouse on missing and exploited children, task force 
grants, and administrative costs for the Internet Crimes 
Against Children (ICAC) program.
    Within the funds provided in this agreement for the AMBER 
Alert program, no less than $4,400,000 is for the operation and 
activities of the existing AMBER Alert program. Of the funds 
provided for AMBER Alert activities, $1,000,000 shall be 
directed to addressing State/Tribal integration consistent with 
the findings of the report directed by Public Law 115-166.
    OJJDP is directed to continue to provide for the 
development of IT solutions to address both duplicative tips 
and law enforcement deconfliction, to ensure that only high-
quality information is being provided to law enforcement 
agencies, including ICAC task forces, as required by the 
explanatory statement accompanying Public Law 116-93.
    Within the funds provided in this agreement, $3,000,000 
shall be for a competitive grant award program to increase the 
technological investigative capacity, and associated training 
of law enforcement, to support the development, refinement, and 
advancement of widely used investigative tools, methods and 
technologies that address child pornography, exploitation, and 
sex trafficking, as previously directed in fiscal years 2018, 
2019 and 2020. OJJDP is further directed to expand efforts to 
provide advanced skills training for ICAC officers.
    ICAC Structure.--OJJDP is directed to submit a report, not 
later than 120 days after the date of enactment of this Act, 
describing how the ICAC program can be better structured to 
ensure consistency across the 61 task forces. Issues to be 
addressed include, adherence to standardized operating 
procedures; deconfliction processes with other Federal, State, 
local, and Tribal law enforcement agencies; the best way to 
prioritize investigations; and the possibility of establishing 
a formalized governing board over the ICAC program. This report 
should also discuss how to reduce the problem of high turnover 
for ICAC investigators, reasons for this turnover, and the 
skill sets and law enforcement backgrounds that have been most 
beneficial for investigators who have longevity with their ICAC 
programs.
    Children Exposed to Violence.--The agreement provides 
$8,000,000 for grants to help children exposed to violence, 
through supportive services for the children and their 
families, training and awareness to communities, and technical 
assistance for child and family-serving organizations to help 
them better recognize and help families at risk for violence.

Black Men and Boys as a separate line item in future fiscal 
year budget requests.

                Equal Employment Opportunity Commission


                         SALARIES AND EXPENSES

    The agreement includes $404,490,000 for the Equal 
Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC).
    Summary of Equal Pay Data and Report.--In lieu of House

Appropriations Acts concerning the creation of a new office 
within its organization. Section 505 prohibits both the 
creation of a new program, project, or activity and the 
reorganization or renaming of offices without advance 
notification to the Committees. USTR's justification that the 
new office was resource neutral and simply a realignment of 
existing resources is unacceptable as its actions run in direct 
contravention of section 505 and section 903 of Title IX of the 
United States-Mexico-Canada Implementation Act (Public Law 116-
113). The agreement further stresses that future violations 
will be penalized appropriately.

Minimis Thresholds'' included in the explanatory statement 
accompanying Public Law 116-93.
    China Trade Deal Costs.--USTR is directed to provide the 
Committees, on a biannual basis, a report documenting the 
agency's obligations related to the Bilateral Evaluation and

activities and transfers authorized by the Trade Facilitation 
and Trade Enforcement Act of 2015.

                        State Justice Institute


                         SALARIES AND EXPENSES

    The agreement includes $7,000,000 for the State Justice 
Institute (SJI).
    Fines, Fees, and Bail Practices.--One of SJI's priority 
areas of investment for fiscal year 2020 was fines, fees, and 
bail practices. SJI is encouraged to continue investing in this 
area so that State courts can continue taking a leadership role 
in reviewing these practices.
    Emergency Preparedness and Cybersecurity.--SJI is 
encouraged to continue its ongoing emergency preparedness and 
cybersecurity funding priority, which supports projects that

to respond to disasters, pandemics, attacks on electronic 
systems, and other threats.
    State Court Behavioral Health Collaborative.--SJI is 
encouraged to document and promote innovative court-based 
programs that address substance abuse and mental illness and 
develop a sustainable community of practice to share the 
programs and practices on a national level.

                insurance plan available to the workers who are

                  (B) offering to such workers an employer-
                sponsored health benefits plan that requires 
                the employer to contribute less towards the 
                premium or subscription share than the amount 
                that is paid by the Department of Defense for

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
    \1\ This Explanatory Statement was submitted for printing in the 
Congressional Record on
December 21, 2020 by Mrs. Lowey of New York, Chairwoman of the House 
Committee on Appropriations. The Statement appears on page H7967 of 
Book III.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

       DIVISION C--DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE APPROPRIATIONS ACT, 2021

    The following is an explanation of the effects of this Act, 
which makes appropriations for the Department of Defense for 
fiscal year 2021. The joint explanatory statement accompanying 
this division is approved and indicates congressional intent. 
Unless otherwise noted, the language set forth in House Report 
116-453 carries the same weight as language included in this 
joint explanatory statement and should be complied with unless 
specifically addressed to the contrary in this joint 
explanatory statement. While some language is repeated for 
emphasis, it is not intended to negate the language referred to 
above unless expressly provided herein.

              DEFINITION OF PROGRAM, PROJECT, AND ACTIVITY

    For the purposes of the Balanced Budget and Emergency 
Deficit Control Act of 1985 (Public Law 99-177), as amended by 
the Balanced Budget and Emergency Deficit Control Reaffirmation 
Act of 1987 (Public Law 100-119), and by the Budget Enforcement 
Act of 1990 (Public Law 101-508), the terms ``program, project, 
and activity'' for appropriations contained in this Act shall 
be defined as the most specific level of budget items 
identified in the Department of Defense Appropriations Act, 
2021, the related classified annexes and explanatory 
statements, and the P-1 and R-1 budget justification documents 
as subsequently modified by congressional action.
    The following exception to the above definition shall 
apply: the military personnel and the operation and maintenance 
accounts, for which the term ``program, project, and activity'' 
is defined as the appropriations accounts contained in the 
Department of Defense Appropriations Act.
    At the time the President submits the budget request for 
fiscal year 2022, the Secretary of Defense is directed to 
transmit to the congressional defense committees budget 
justification documents to be known as the ``M-1'' and the ``O-
1'' which shall identify, at the budget activity, activity 
group, and sub-activity group level, the amounts requested by 
the President to be appropriated to the Department of Defense 
for military personnel and operation and maintenance in any 
budget request, or amended budget request, for fiscal year 
2022.

  REPROGRAMMING GUIDANCE FOR BASE AND OVERSEAS CONTINGENCY OPERATIONS 
                                FUNDING

    The Secretary of Defense is directed to continue to follow 
the reprogramming guidance for acquisition accounts as 
specified in the report accompanying the House version of the 
Department of Defense Appropriations bill for Fiscal Year 2008 
(House Report 110-279). The dollar threshold for reprogramming 
funds shall be $10,000,000 for military personnel; operation 
and maintenance; procurement; and research, development, test 
and evaluation.
    Also, the Under Secretary of Defense (Comptroller) is 
directed to continue to provide the congressional defense 
committees annual DD Form 1416 reports for titles I and II and 
quarterly, spreadsheet-based DD Form 1416 reports for Service 
and defense-wide accounts in titles III and IV of this Act. 
Reports for titles III and IV shall comply with guidance 
specified in the explanatory statement accompanying the 
Department of Defense Appropriations Act, 2006. The Department 
shall continue to follow the limitation that prior approval 
reprogrammings are set at either the specified dollar threshold 
or 20 percent of the procurement or research, development, test 
and evaluation line, whichever is less. These thresholds are 
cumulative from the base for reprogramming value as modified by 
any adjustments. Therefore, if the combined value of transfers 
into or out of a military personnel (M-1); an operation and 
maintenance (O-1); a procurement (P-1); or a research, 
development, test and evaluation (R-1) line exceeds the 
identified threshold, the Secretary of Defense must submit a 
prior approval reprogramming to the congressional defense 
committees. In addition, guidelines on the application of prior 
approval reprogramming procedures for congressional special 
interest items are established elsewhere in this statement.

                           FUNDING INCREASES

    The funding increases outlined in the tables for each 
appropriation account shall be provided only for the specific 
purposes indicated in the tables.

                  CONGRESSIONAL SPECIAL INTEREST ITEMS

    Items for which additional funds have been provided or 
items for which funding is specifically reduced as shown in the 
project level tables or in paragraphs using the phrase ``only 
for'' or ``only to'' are congressional special interest items 
for the purpose of the Base for Reprogramming (DD Form 1414). 
Each of these items must be carried on the DD Form 1414 at the 
stated amount, as specifically addressed in the explanatory 
statement.

                            CLASSIFIED ANNEX

    Adjustments to classified programs are addressed in the 
accompanying classified annex.

       GENERAL TRANSFER AUTHORITY AND SPECIAL TRANSFER AUTHORITY

    The Congress, in exercising its constitutional 
responsibility to oversee the executive branch, must improve 
its understanding of the Department of Defense's application of 
transfer authority and reprogramming actions as the Department 
executes the budget authority granted by the Congress. The 
Secretary of Defense is directed to submit a report to the 
House and Senate Appropriations Committees not later than 90 
days after the enactment of this Act which shall include the 
following:
    (1) The levels of General Transfer Authority (GTA)--granted 
in title VIII in annual defense appropriations acts--and 
Special Transfer Authority (STA)--granted in title IX in annual 
defense appropriations acts--provided to the Department of 
Defense by fiscal year for the last ten fiscal years. In 
addition to the overall levels of authorized GTA and STA, the 
report shall include the portion of authorized GTA and STA that 
was utilized by the Department by fiscal year, and specify the 
percentage of the total GTA and STA that was used for below 
threshold reprogramming actions;
    (2) The portion of GTA and STA, by fiscal year for the last 
ten fiscal years, appropriated to the Department of Defense, 
transferred to, and subsequently implemented by a Department or 
agency other than one funded in this Act;
    (3) The level of GTA and STA, by fiscal year for the last 
ten fiscal years, used for actions submitted to address urgent 
mission critical requirements, unforeseen circumstances of an 
urgent nature (such as the unanticipated mobilization and 
movement of military personnel to a conflict zone, or 
investments included in joint urgent operational needs 
statements), or for life safety; and
    (4) The portion of GTA and STA, by fiscal year for the last 
ten fiscal years, used to address non-urgent contract awards, 
to fund initiatives or investments included in operational 
needs statements, to accelerate existing acquisition programs, 
to procure quantities of equipment and/or services originally 
planned for purchase in the future years defense program as 
presented in the respective budget year, and/or to augment 
previously planned research and development efforts.
    Further, the Comptroller General is directed, not than 
later 30 days after the submission of the above-mentioned 
report to the House and Senate Appropriations Committees, to 
provide to these Committees a review of this report, to include 
an assessment of the extent to which the actions described in 
response to the direction above comply with existing 
appropriations law.

     APPROPRIATIONS FOR DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE-IDENTIFIED UNFUNDED 
                              REQUIREMENTS

    In accordance with 10 U.S.C. 222(a), the military Services 
and combatant commands submitted to the congressional defense 
committees with submission of the fiscal year 2021 President's 
budget request their unfunded mission requirements. As in 
previous years, these requests were assessed on the basis of 
cost, schedule, and performance. Therefore, this agreement 
recommends additional appropriations to address these 
shortfalls, as appropriate.
    It is noted that, in some instances, appropriations 
provided in prior fiscal years to address unfunded requirements 
remained unobligated for several years after they were 
appropriated. Subsequently, those unobligated appropriations 
were proposed for realignment for purposes other than those 
requested by the Department of Defense and intended by the 
Congress. While it is understandable that requirements evolve 
and associated funding requirements change during execution of 
the budget, such unexecuted and/or reallocated appropriations 
suggest that additional details regarding the execution of 
appropriations provided specifically for unfunded requirements 
identified by the Department of Defense are warranted. 
Therefore, it is directed that any submission of unfunded 
requirements with the fiscal year 2022 President's budget 
request be accompanied by updated execution data that speaks to 
the extent to which the unfunded requirements that received 
appropriations in fiscal year 2021 were fulfilled or partially 
fulfilled. Further, the Assistant Secretaries (Financial 
Management and Comptroller) for the Air Force, Navy, and Army 
are directed to provide, not later than 30 days after the 
enactment of this Act, updated budget request brief templates 
to the congressional defense committees that include distinct 
programmatic and execution data for appropriations provided in 
the previous three fiscal years for unfunded requirements.

        INDEPENDENT COST ESTIMATES AND OTHER PROGRAM INFORMATION

    In accordance with 10 U.S.C. 2334(a), the Director, Cost 
Assessment and Program Evaluation (CAPE), is directed to 
conduct or approve Independent Cost Estimates (ICEs) in advance 
of certain milestones for all major defense acquisition 
programs and major subprograms. In addition, Department of 
Defense Instruction 5000.73 outlines the responsibilities of 
the Director, CAPE in providing estimates and expresses the 
policy of the Department for its use. It is noted that 
Instruction 5000.73 defines an ICE as ``a full life-cycle cost 
estimate of a program and includes: All costs of development, 
procurement, military construction, operations and support, 
disposal, and trained manpower to operate, maintain, and 
support the program or subprogram upon full operational 
deployment, without regard to funding source or management 
control.''
    The congressional defense committees view ICEs as a 
critical source of information about programs consuming 
billions of taxpayer dollars. For the purpose of recommending 
appropriations, the committees routinely review ICEs along with 
program requirements information and cost, schedule and 
performance data, to include acquisitiondecision memoranda and 
test and evaluation master plans. Timely and complete submission of all 
documents to the congressional defense committees is necessary to 
conduct oversight and should be done as a routine matter. The Deputy 
Secretary of Defense is directed to provide ICEs to the congressional 
defense committees for all major defense acquisition programs and major 
subprograms included in the President's budget request and accompanying 
future years defense program, as well as those directed by the 
congressional defense committees.

                     CONGRESSIONAL LIAISON OFFICES

    Department of Defense Appropriations Acts have long 
maintained restrictions on the use of funds to consolidate the 
budget or appropriations liaison office of the Office of the 
Secretary of Defense, the Office of the Secretary of a military 
department, or the service headquarters of one of the Armed 
Forces into a legislative affairs or legislative liaison 
office. The House and Senate Appropriations Committees continue 
to support the dedication of liaisons to the specialized work 
of the Committees and want to ensure that these offices have 
the staff and resources they need to be effective. Therefore, 
not later than 90 days after the enactment of this Act, the 
Secretary of Defense is directed to submit proposals and 
recommendations to the House and Senate Appropriations 
Committees to strengthen the budget and appropriations liaison 
offices to improve coordination within the Department of 
Defense and the House and Senate Appropriations Committees for 
the vital work performed by each institution. These proposals 
and recommendations should include an examination of rank and 
promotion parity, civilian and military integration within each 
office, and other proposals deemed appropriate by each Service. 
Furthermore, the Secretary of Defense is directed to maintain 
and fill no fewer than nine liaison positions in the Office of 
the Under Secretary of Defense (Comptroller), Budget and 
Appropriations Affairs during fiscal year 2021.

                               READINESS

    The agreement recommends an additional $300,500,000 in 
title VIII of this Act to be transferred to the operation and 
maintenance accounts and be divided proportionately among the 
Services and the National Guard and reserve components. This 
funding shall be used only to improve military readiness, 
including increased training, depot maintenance, and base 
operations support. None of the funding provided may be used 
for recruiting, marketing, or advertising programs. The funding 
provided is a congressional special interest item. The 
Secretary of Defense and the Service Secretaries are directed 
to submit a detailed spending plan by sub-activity group to the 
House and Senate Appropriations Committees not less than 30 
days prior to the obligation of these funds. These transfers 
may be implemented 30 days after congressional notification 
unless an objection is received from either the House or Senate 
Appropriations Committees.

                            F-35 PRODUCTION

    The fiscal year 2021 President's budget request includes 79 
F-35 Joint Strike Fighters (JSF), 19 fewer than were provided 
in the Department of Defense Appropriations Act, 2020 (Public 
Law 116-93). The agreement notes that the Department of Defense 
continues to request fewer than 60 F-35A variants and the F-35B 
procurement profile was reduced to ten aircraft in the fiscal 
year 2021 President's budget request, five fewer than were 
planned in the fiscal year 2020 President's budget for fiscal 
year 2021. The agreement notes that the reduction in F-35Bs was 
partially offset by an increase in the Marine Corps' request 
for F-35Cs as part of force structure decisions. As a result, 
the agreement recommends an additional $1,129,000,000 to 
procure 12 additional F-35As in fiscal year 2021, as delineated 
in the Air Force's unfunded priorities list. In addition, the 
agreement recommends $518,400,000 to procure five additional F-
35Cs for the Navy and Marine Corps.
    The Department of Defense took several actions in prior 
years to prepare for Turkey's removal from the F-35 program, 
including changes to its supply base and supply chain to 
accommodate the loss of Turkish industrial participation. 
However, the agreement notes that full transition away from 
Turkish parts will not occur until delivery of lot 14 is 
complete. Therefore, not later than 60 days after the enactment 
of this Act, and quarterly thereafter through final delivery of 
lot 14 aircraft, the Program Executive Officer, F-35 Joint 
Program Office, is directed to submit a report to the 
congressional defense committees on the status of contributions 
by Turkish suppliers to the F-35 supply chain. The report shall 
also include efforts by the prime contractor and the Department 
to ensure compliance with section 1245 of the National Defense 
Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2020 (Public Law 116-92) and 
updates on the production and delivery schedule for lot 14 
aircraft.

                        F-35 PARTS REIMBURSEMENT

    The prime vendor for the Joint Strike Fighter and the 
Department of Defense are in negotiation regarding 
reimbursement to the Department for parts delivered that were 
considered inadequate for installation. The Program Executive 
Officer, F-35 Joint Program Office, in coordination with the 
Assistant Secretary of the Air Force (Acquisition, Technology 
and Logistics) and the Assistant Secretary of the Navy 
(Research, Development and Acquisition) is directed to include, 
in the President's budget request for fiscal year 2022, 
budgetary information that reflects the sum of any credited 
funds and the budgetary lines in which the Service will apply 
those credits to reduce program costs.

                      F-35 ECONOMIC ORDER QUANTITY

    The fiscal year 2021 President's budget request for F-35 
includes $492,063,000 for economic order quantity (EOQ) 
materials for 254 United States F-35 aircraft to be procured in 
fiscal years 2021 through 2023 (lots 15-17). This is the second 
and final tranche of EOQ requested by the Program Executive 
Officer, F-35 Joint Program Office (JPO) for lot 15-17 aircraft 
following $543,730,000 requested by the JPO and appropriated by 
the Congress in fiscal year 2020 for that purpose. Typically, 
EOQ authorization and appropriations provide bulk purchasing 
authority of components under a multi-year procurement per 10 
U.S.C. 2306(b). Requesting authority and funding for EOQ 
outside of a certified multi-year procurement is highly 
unusual. Nevertheless, in order to achieve program cost savings 
in excess of $400,000,000, the JPO first requested and Congress 
authorized and appropriated EOQ absent a multi-year procurement 
for F-35 in fiscal year 2018 for aircraft purchased in fiscal 
years 2018 through 2020 (lots 12-14). However, the savings 
estimated by the JPO in support of that EOQ did not materialize 
to the extent projected. Further, despite receiving EOQ as 
requested in fiscal year 2020 for 270 United States aircraft to 
be procured in lots 15-17, the fiscal year 2021 budget 
submission reduced the quantity of United States aircraft to be 
procured in lots 15-17, calling into question the value of 
purchasing bulk material using EOQ authority and 
appropriations, and the ability to generate the savings 
previously estimated.
    The lack of savings materialized and continued adjustments 
to F-35 aircraft quantities year-over-year call into question 
whether appropriations for EOQ should continue to be provided 
to the F-35 program. However, changes to funding, contracting, 
and acquisition strategies mid-stream could have detrimental 
effects on program costs and the supplier base. Therefore, the 
agreement provides full funding for the EOQ requested in fiscal 
year 2021 for lots 15-17 as this is the final EOQ request for 
these aircraft. The Director, Cost Assessment and Program 
Evaluation, is directed to submit to the congressional defense 
committees, with the submission of the fiscal year 2022 
President's budget request, an estimate of cost savings 
materialized for lot 15-17 aircraft directly resulting from EOQ 
appropriated in fiscal years 2020 and 2021. Finally, the 
agreement contains a rescission of $28,167,000 for fiscal year 
2020 EOQ for lot 15-17 aircraft the JPO no longer plans to 
procure.

                    BUDGETING FOR F-35 MODERNIZATION

    The fiscal year 2021 President's budget request includes 
$14,186,886,000 for development, production, and sustainment of 
the F-35, including $1,578,760,000 for follow-on modernization 
of the F-35A, F-35B, and F-35C aircraft to provide 513 
additional individual capabilities. It is noted that the 
Department of Defense has budgeted $5,731,731,000 from fiscal 
year 2021 through fiscal year 2025 for these follow-on 
modernization efforts, and that the total estimate for the 
follow-on modernization program is $17,900,000,000. Follow-on 
modernization of the F-35 continues to be supported by the 
congressional defense committees, and despite some concerns 
with the ability to measure delivered software updates against 
planned capabilities as well as the delayed synchronization of 
fielded aircraft capabilities and the ability to maintain 
associated training cycles, the Department's adopted 
acquisition strategy of Continuous Capability Development and 
Delivery (C2D2) for follow-on modernization is not objected to 
at this time. However, there are concerns with the Department's 
approach tobudgeting for C2D2 and the lack of detail in the 
budget justification materials. For instance, the ``R-2A Project 
Justification'' and ``R-3 Project Cost Analysis'' for Air Force, Navy, 
and Marine Corps C2D2 budget exhibits do not trace to funds requested 
in the respective program elements for projects in that fiscal year, 
nor to the project level execution data provided during the 
congressional budget review process. Further, there are concerns with 
project level funding adjustments in the year of budget execution, as 
well as with repeated adjustments to the budget request for follow-on 
modernization after the submission of the budget request.
    In order to ensure visibility into follow-on modernization 
cost and performance, and traceability of appropriated and 
requested funding to fielded capabilities, the project 
structure for F-35 C2D2 needs to be revised. Upon consultation 
with the Program Executive Officer, F-35 Joint Program Office, 
this revision is detailed in the project level tables 
accompanying the Research, Development, Test and Evaluation, 
Navy and Research, Development, Test and Evaluation, Air Force 
appropriation accounts in this explanatory statement. The 
Program Executive Officer, F-35 Joint Program Office, is 
directed to follow this revised project structure for C2D2 in 
future budget submissions, to include all justification 
materials, budget briefs, and execution updates. Further, while 
visibility into international contributions to the C2D2 program 
is appreciated, the agreement recommends appropriations for 
United States requirements only. Therefore, the budget 
justification materials should only reflect the request for 
those appropriations.

  NEW BUDGET EXHIBIT CAPTURING SAVINGS FROM PROPOSED FORCE STRUCTURE 
                                CHANGES

    The Under Secretary of Defense (Comptroller) and the 
Assistant Secretary of the Air Force (Financial Management and 
Comptroller) are directed to collaborate with the House and 
Senate Appropriations Committees to create a budget exhibit 
that will display the savings assumed in the budget request for 
aircraft retirements and divestitures to be submitted with each 
President's budget request. The display shall have a separate 
page for each aircraft type/model/series that shall include, 
but not be limited to, quantities of aircraft impacted, funding 
changes by appropriation and line item through the entire 
future years defense program, and a narrative explaining how 
the funding change for each line was derived. Discussions on 
this new budget exhibit are expected to begin not later than 45 
days after the enactment of this Act. The exhibit shall be 
included in the justification materials submitted with the 
fiscal year 2023 President's budget request.

                CLOUD COMPUTING SERVICES BUDGET EXHIBIT

    The Chief Information Officer of the Department of Defense 
is directed to provide a separate narrative page to be included 
after the funding table for each military Service and defense 
agency in the budget exhibit titled ``Department of Defense FY 
2021 Cloud Profile and Budget Estimates''. The narrative shall 
address the factors driving any funding changes between fiscal 
years by appropriation; a description of the strategies each 
military Service and defense agency will use to implement cloud 
computing, including a timeline; and how these strategies will 
be incorporated into the Department's overall enterprise cloud 
environment.

    MISSILE DEFENSE AGENCY BUDGET REQUEST, PRIORITIES, AND UNFUNDED 
                              REQUIREMENTS

    The fiscal year 2021 President's budget request for the 
Missile Defense Agency (MDA) totals $9,133,668,000 (excluding 
appropriations for Military Construction), a decrease of 
$1,273,122,000 from amounts enacted for fiscal year 2020. 
Separately, with submission of the fiscal year 2021 President's 
budget request, the Director, MDA, submitted to the 
congressional defense committees a list of unfunded MDA 
requirements for fiscal year 2021 totaling $969,222,000. The 
apparent disconnect among the 2017 National Security Strategy, 
the 2018 National Defense Strategy, the 2020 Missile Defense 
Review (which defines missile defense as ``an essential 
component of United States national security and defense 
strategies''), and the fiscal year 2021 President's budget 
request for MDA is concerning. In particular, ongoing 
acquisition programs that were identified as high priority 
within MDA's architecture as recently as one year ago, such as 
the development of a space sensor for the tracking of 
hypersonic threats and ballistic missiles, the development of 
an interceptor against hypersonic weapons, and the procurement 
of a radar for the defense of Hawaii, have been removed from 
MDA's budget, or underwent significant funding reductions. The 
inconsistencies are concerning, and greater programmatic and 
fiscal alignment consistent with the aforementioned documents 
among the Director, MDA; the Under Secretary of Defense 
(Research and Engineering); the Under Secretary of Defense 
(Acquisition and Sustainment); the Under Secretary of Defense 
(Comptroller); the Deputy Secretary of Defense; the Director, 
Cost Assessment and Program Evaluation; and the Director, 
Office of Management and Budget, is expected in future budget 
submissions. A total of $10,464,614,000 is recommended for MDA 
activities for fiscal year 2021, an increase of $1,330,946,000 
above the request, and the Director, MDA is directed to provide 
the congressional defense committees, not later than 30 days 
after the enactment of this Act, updated acquisition and spend 
plans for MDA's fiscal year 2021 appropriations.

                    MISSILE DEFENSE AGENCY WORKFORCE

    The fiscal year 2021 President's budget request proposes a 
reduction to the Missile Defense Agency's (MDA) civilian 
workforce by 35 full-time equivalents (FTEs). It is noted that 
over the last four years, MDA's civilian FTEs have been reduced 
by more than four percent and that the fiscal year 2021 future 
years defense program proposes to further reduce MDA's civilian 
FTEs by more than five percent from current levels--even as 
MDA's workload continues to grow during that timeframe. 
Further, the assessment directed in Senate Report 116-103 
regarding MDA's required workforce size, qualifications, and 
makeup to address MDA requirements has not been submitted to 
the congressional defense committees. Therefore, the fiscal 
year 2021 proposal to further reduce MDA's civilian FTE is 
rejected, and an increase of $15,000,000 in fiscal year 2021 to 
restore these MDA personnel reductions is recommended. Further, 
it is directed that no adjustments may be made to MDA's 
workforce size, structure, and organization until 30 days after 
the Deputy Secretary of Defense, acting directly through the 
Director, MDA, briefs the congressional defense committees on 
any such proposed adjustments.

             HYPERSONIC AND BALLISTIC TRACKING SPACE SENSOR

    The fiscal year 2021 President's budget request includes no 
funds for the Missile Defense Agency (MDA) to continue the 
development of a Hypersonic and Ballistic Tracking Space Sensor 
(HBTSS) program, which is required to detect and track 
hypersonic threats and ballistic missiles. It is noted that MDA 
began this program in fiscal year 2013 and that the Director, 
MDA has repeatedly identified HBTSS as a top acquisition 
program for MDA.
    The Space Development Agency (SDA) and MDA will share 
responsibility for developing and deploying the HBTSS 
architecture and constellation under a joint Memorandum of 
Agreement that defines each agency's roles and 
responsibilities, and SDA's development efforts are fully 
funded elsewhere within the Research, Development, Test and 
Evaluation, Defense-Wide appropriation. With the fiscal year 
2021 budget request, the Director, MDA, in response to Senate 
Report 116-103, submitted to the congressional defense 
committees a limited acquisition strategy for HBTSS. Details 
regarding the overall space architecture to be developed and 
fielded by SDA and MDA and cost estimates were not included. 
Therefore, the Directors, SDA and MDA are directed to jointly 
provide to the congressional defense committees, with 
submission of the President's fiscal year 2022 budget request, 
the comprehensive acquisition strategy for HBTSS, including the 
components of the architecture, respective fielding plans, 
contract-type determinations and rationales therefor, plans for 
technical data management, integrated master test plans and 
integrated master schedules, as well as cost estimates by 
element and for the overall strategy. A total of $130,000,000 
is recommended for MDA's HBTSS sensor efforts in fiscal year 
2021, to include a transfer of $10,000,000 of funds for HBTSS 
requested within SDA's budget, and it is expected that this 
program will be fully funded in future budget submissions for 
both MDA and SDA.

            BUDGETING FOR MISSILE DEFENSE AGENCY TEST EVENTS

    The fiscal year 2021 President's budget request includes 
$1,287,008,000 for Missile Defense Agency (MDA) test events and 
associated test infrastructure. Regular and realistic testing 
of the ballistic missile defense system to prove out missile 
defense capabilities, increase engagement capability and 
capacity, and build warfighter confidence is strongly 
supported. However, the repeated volatility of the MDA's annual 
test plans resulting in schedule adjustments, test delays, and 
the cancellation of previously planned and budgeted flight 
tests in the year of execution, is concerning. Funds for MDA's 
fiscal year 2021 budget request for test events are recommended 
per the supplemental test event budget briefing materials 
provided to the House and SenateAppropriations Committees, as 
modified by the table of ``Project Level Adjustments'' in the 
explanatory statement accompanying this Act, and MDA's test budget is 
designated as a congressional special interest item for the purpose of 
Base for Reprogramming.

                     HOMELAND DEFENSE RADAR-HAWAII

    The President's fiscal year 2021 budget request includes no 
funds to continue acquisition of a Homeland Defense Radar on 
Hawaii. A discrimination radar on Hawaii is an important part 
of the architecture for United States homeland defense, and the 
Missile Defense Agency (MDA) awarded a fixed-price incentive 
contract for the production of this radar in December 2018. In 
order to maintain efficient production of the radar, an 
additional $133,000,000, only to be used for the Homeland 
Defense Radar-Hawaii, is recommended.
    The site selection for the radar has been delayed due to 
locations previously under consideration no longer being 
considered viable, and one alternate location (``#4'') on the 
Pacific Missile Range Facility (PMRF) will be added to the 
environmental impact statement for full environmental analysis. 
The House and Senate Appropriations Committees look forward to 
receiving the results of that analysis in a timely manner. 
Further, the Director, MDA is directed to submit a report to 
the congressional defense committees, not later than 30 days 
after the enactment of this Act, regarding the viability of 
PMRF site #4 as an alternative site for Homeland Defense Radar-
Hawaii, and this report shall detail the planning process 
between MDA and the Navy regarding validation of PMRF site #4 
as an alternative site, to include steps taken to complete an 
assessment of a radar's impact on PMRF training range 
operations and an estimated timeline for completion of the 
environmental review and issuance of a record of decision. In 
addition, the Secretary of the Navy and the Commander, United 
States Pacific Fleet, are directed to jointly provide the 
congressional defense committees, not later than with the 
submission of the fiscal year 2022 President's budget request, 
an independent assessment regarding the impact of locating a 
Homeland Defense Radar-Hawaii at PMRF site #4 on Navy and 
Marine Corps operations, including any mitigations the Navy and 
Marine Corps would require and associated cost estimates.

                    AEGIS BASELINES BUDGET ESTIMATES

    As previously expressed in Senate Report 116-103, concerns 
remain with the lack of stability of the scope and costs of 
AEGIS ``baselines'' and inadequate budget justification 
materials. The Missile Defense Agency Program Executive, Sea-
Based Weapons Systems and the Department of the Navy Program 
Executive Officer, Integrated Warfare Systems are directed to 
provide to the congressional defense committees, not later than 
30 days after the enactment of this Act, a joint acquisition 
baseline for AEGIS development efforts.

    SUPPORT TO THE DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES FOR THE 
                      STRATEGIC NATIONAL STOCKPILE

    The agreement recognizes the Department of the Army's 
capabilities in additive manufacturing that may enhance 
preparedness and be leveraged in the event of a public health 
emergency requiring activation of critically needed medical 
supplies from the Strategic National Stockpile. The Secretary 
of Defense is urged to work with the Secretary of Health and 
Human Services (HHS) to provide technical manufacturing 
expertise to the Strategic National Stockpile for the provision 
of components of medical supplies and devices to replenish 
depleted stocks, provide surge capacity, and maintain the 
stockpile over time. Further, the agreement directs the 
Secretary of Defense to submit a report to the congressional 
defense committees, not later than 180 days after the enactment 
of this Act, detailing the Department's work with HHS to 
support the Strategic National Stockpile.

                   CHIMPANZEES ON AIR FORCE PROPERTY

    The Secretary of the Air Force is encouraged to work with 
the Director of the National Institutes of Health to seek 
alternative arrangements for the housing and care of 
chimpanzees currently residing on Air Force property.

                      TITLE I--MILITARY PERSONNEL

    The agreement provides $157,807,905,000 in Title I, 
Military Personnel, as follows:

    The Secretary of Defense is directed to continue to provide 
the congressional defense committees with quarterly budget

              DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE ACQUISITION WORKFORCE

    The fiscal year 2021 President's budget request proposes to 
transfer $140,320,000 from the Department of Defense 
Acquisition Workforce Development Account (DAWDA) to the 
Services' operation and maintenance accounts for the 
acquisition workforce. This transfer is supported as requested, 
and details are displayed in the table below. The funding in 
the table is designated as a congressional special interest 
item for the purpose of Base for Reprogramming. It is directed 
that the Under Secretary of Defense (Comptroller) and the 
Service Secretaries shall use normal prior approval 
reprogramming procedures prior to obligating or expending these 
funds for any purpose other than the acquisition workforce.

------------------------------------------------------------------------
 
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Operation and Maintenance, Army.........................     $37,640,000
Operation and Maintenance, Navy.........................      60,620,000
Operation and Maintenance, Air Force....................      42,060,000
                                                         ---------------
  Total.................................................     140,320,000
------------------------------------------------------------------------

    While the fiscal year 2021 Service budget justification 
materials show the transfer of funds from the DAWDA, it is 
noted that these funds are encompassed within large funding 
lines, which limits visibility and insight into, and execution 
of, requested funding specifically for the acquisition 
workforce. Therefore, with submission of the fiscal year 2022 
President's budget request, the respective Service acquisition 
executives are directed to provide a report to the 
congressional defense committees identifying their respective 
acquisition workforce requirements in support of the 
acquisition programs included in the fiscal year 2022 future 
years defense program. Further, the respective Service 
financial managers and comptroller of the Army, Navy, and Air 
Force are directed to certify, with submission of the fiscal 
year 2022 President's budget request, to the congressional 
defense committees, that these acquisition workforce 
requirements are fully funded in the fiscal year 2022 
President's budget request.
    The Under Secretary of Defense (Comptroller), in 
coordination with the respective Service acquisition executives 
and financial managers and comptroller, is directed, beginning 
with the fiscal year 2023 President's budget request, to 
establish unique defense acquisition workforce sub-activity 
groups for each operation and maintenance account that contains 
such funding. Further, the Under Secretary of Defense 
(Comptroller), in coordination with the respective Service 
acquisition executives and financial managers and comptroller, 
is directed to work with the House and Senate Appropriations 
Committees to develop performance criteria metrics to be 
included in the OP-5 budget exhibit for the new sub-activity 
group in order to increase visibility and clarity into funding 
for the defense acquisition workforce.

         REPROGRAMMING GUIDANCE FOR SPECIAL OPERATIONS COMMAND

    The agreement directs the Secretary of Defense to submit a 
baseline report that shows the Special Operations Command's 
operation and maintenance funding by sub-activity group for the 
fiscal year 2021 appropriation not later than 60 days after the 
enactment of this Act. The Secretary of Defense is further 
directed to submit quarterly execution reports to the 
congressional defense committees not later than 45 days after 
the end of each fiscal quarter that addresses the rationale for 
the realignment of any funds within and between budget sub-
activities and the movement of any base funds used to support 
overseas contingency operations. Finally, the Secretary of 
Defense is directed to notify the congressional defense 
committees 30 days prior to the realignment of funds in excess 
of $10,000,000 between sub-activity groups.

                      DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE AUDIT

    The Under Secretary of Defense (Comptroller), in 
coordination with the respective Service Financial Manager and 
Comptroller, is directed to develop a budget exhibit, for 
submission with the fiscal year 2022 President's budget 
request, detailing the costs of the Department of Defense 
audit. The exhibit shall include three separate budget tables; 
one showing costs for Audit Services, one for Audit Support, 
and one for Remediation, which includes remediating audit 
findings related to financial systems. Each table shall include 
the following elements:
    (1) Appropriation
    (2) Budget line item number/sub-activity group
    (3) Budget line item title
    (4) Prior year dollars in thousands (showing actuals)
    (5) Current year dollars in thousands
    (6) Budget year dollars in thousands
    (7) Description, which shall define what the funds in each 
line item purchase
    (8) Explanation of change, which shall explain any 
significant changes between the current year projection and the 
budget request.

                           SPARE PARTS STOCK

    The Service Secretaries and the Director of the Defense 
Logistics Agency are directed to conduct analysis on spare 
parts requirements to determine the spares levels necessary to 
enable the armed forces to fulfill the strategic and 
contingency plans in accordance with the National Defense 
Strategy.

             OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE BUDGET JUSTIFICATION

    The agreement recommends two changes to the budget 
justification documents to further inform the congressional 
review. First, the Secretary of the Air Force shall include the 
average FTE cost (annual average salary) in the Personnel 
Summary section of the OP-5 exhibit for each sub-activity 
group. This direction applies to all Air Force components. 
Second, for the Operation and Maintenance, Defense-Wide 
appropriation, the Secretary of Defense shall submit a separate 
OP-5 and OP-32 exhibit for each line that is requested on the 
O-1 breakout of Operation and Maintenance Programs.

     STANDARDS AND PROTOCOLS ON COUNTERING CYBERSECURITY INCIDENTS

    The agreement adopts the reporting requirements contained 
under the heading ``Standards and Protocols on Countering 
Cybersecurity Incidents'' in House Report 116-453 but 
designates the Secretary of Defense to the consulting role as 
opposed to the lead for this deliverable.

                         COLLECTIVE BARGAINING

    There are concerns with a January 29, 2020, Presidential 
memorandum delegating to the Secretary of Defense the 
President's long-standing authority to exclude Department of 
Defense agencies and subdivisions from being covered under the 
Federal Service Labor-Management Relations Statute pursuant to 
5 U.S.C. Section 7103(b)(1) or (2) of title 5, which outlines 
collective bargaining rights for Federal employees. 
Acknowledging the risks associated with broadly exempting 
agencies or subdivisions that have been operating successfully 
without the exemption, Secretary of Defense is expected to 
continue to apply rigorous internal processes requiring 
Department of Defense components to submit significant 
documentation to support any request to exclude its agencies or 
subdivisions from collective bargaining.

                        FEDERAL LAW ENFORCEMENT

    The agreement notes that the explanatory statement 
accompanying the Commerce, Justice, Science, and Related 
Agencies Appropriations Act, 2021 directs the Attorney General 
to ensure implementation of evidence-based training programs on 
de-escalation and the use-of-force, as well as on police-
community relations, that are broadly applicable and scalable 
to all Federal law enforcement agencies. The agreement further 
notes that several agencies funded by this Act employ Federal 
law enforcement officers and are Federal Law Enforcement 
Training Centers partner organizations. The agreement directs 
such agencies to consult with the Attorney General regarding 
the implementation of these programs for their law enforcement 
officers. The agreement further directs such agencies to brief 
the Committees on Appropriations on their efforts relating to 
such implementation no later than 90 days after consultation 
with the Attorney General. In addition, the agreement directs 
such agencies, to the extent that they are not already 
participating, to consult with the Attorney General and the 
Director of the FBI regarding participation in the National 
Use-of-Force Data Collection. The agreement further directs 
such agencies to brief the Committees on Appropriations, no 
later than 90 days after enactment of this Act, on their 
current efforts to so participate.

15 days after submission of the fiscal year 2022 budget request 
and include a detailed accounting of activities performed by 
the TSOCs in the preceding year, current fiscal year, and 
current budget request submission at the budget line item level 
of detail. The report shall include a detailed accounting of 
resources allocated by the military Services, United States 
Special Operations Command, and the combatant commands.

                MILITARY INFORMATION SUPPORT OPERATIONS

    The agreement directs the Assistant Secretary of Defense 
(Special Operations/Low Intensity Conflict) to submit a report 
for military information support operations (MISO) activities 
for the individual geographic combatant commands justified by 
the main pillars of the National Defense Strategy to the House 
and Senate Appropriations Committees not later than 15 days 
upon submission of the fiscal year 2022 budget request and 
annually thereafter. The report shall include spend plans 
identifying the requested and enacted funding levels for both 
voice and internet activities and how those activities are 
coordinated with the Intelligence Community and the Department 
of State. The enacted levels will serve as the baseline for 
reprogramming in accordance with section 8007 of this Act. 
Furthermore, the agreement directs the Assistant Secretary of 
Defense (Special Operations/Low Intensity Conflict) to submit 
to the congressional defense committees, not later than 90 days 
after the end of the fiscal year, an annual report that 
provides details on each combatant commands' MISO activities by 
activity name, description, goal or objective, target audience, 
dissemination means, executed funds, and assessments of their 
effectiveness. Additional details for the report are included 
in the classified annex accompanying this Act.

          FORCE DEPLOYMENT NOTIFICATIONS AND QUARTERLY REPORT

    The agreement directs that not later than five days after a 
significant deployment or redeployment of military personnel to 
a location outside the United States, the Secretary of Defense 
shall submit to the congressional defense committees a 
notification of the deployment, including the units and number 
of personnel deployed or redeployed and the location of the 
deployment. In addition, not later than 45 days after the 
enactment of this Act and quarterly thereafter, the Secretary 
of Defense shall submit to the congressional defense committees 
a report on the deployment of armed forces by each geographic 
combatant command. The report shall include the number of 
servicemembers, civilian employees, and contract personnel 
deployed, as well as the country and named operation, if 
applicable, to which such personnel are assigned.

                           BASE NOTIFICATION

    The agreement directs that not later than 15 days after the 
date on which any foreign base that involves the stationing or 
operations of United States military personnel, including a 
temporary base, permanent base, or base owned and operated by a 
foreign country, is opened or closed, the Secretary of Defense 
shall notify the congressional defense committees in writing. 
The notification shall include the base location, dates of 
opening or closure, and any associated personnel changes, 
costs, or savings.

           SECURITY FORCE ASSISTANCE BRIGADE QUARTERLY REPORT

    The Secretary of Defense is directed to submit a report to 
the congressional defense committees, not later than 45 days 
after the enactment of this Act and quarterlythereafter, on 
deployments of Army security force assistance brigades to foreign 
countries to provide training or equipment to their security forces. 
The report shall include a description of each United States Army 
brigade and number of individuals deployed; the education and training 
provided to the brigade; a description of the amount, type, and purpose 
of the training or equipment provided; the authority under which the 
program was conducted; the recipient foreign country and the security 
forces; the timeline, cost, and the source of funds; arrangements made 
for the sustainment of the program; any prior assistance provided by a 
security force assistance brigade; and what was accomplished and how 
the training and equipment fits into the overall security cooperation 
goals of the country.

                NOISE MITIGATION COMMUNITIES PARTNERSHIP

    The agreement includes additional language to address the 
effects that jet noise has on communities. The Secretary of 
Defense is directed to continue to provide the reports required 
under this heading in House Report 116-453. The Federal 
Aviation Administration is the primary Federal agency for noise 
mitigation support to local communities to plan for and respond 
to commercial aircraft noise. The agreement expands the 
interaction between the Department of Defense and the 
Department of Transportation to ensure that assets of each 
individual program of both agencies work to alleviate the 
effects of noise on the communities as expeditiously as 
possible.
    The agreement recognizes when military bases experience a 
change or expansion of mission, the rapid adjustment of noise 
contours is faster than local communities and existing land use 
planning and mitigation efforts can adjust. Therefore, the 
agreement provides $50,000,000 to the Department of Defense 
Office of Economic Adjustment for assisting communities in 
adjusting their noise mitigation plans to be available for 
projects within a one mile or a 65 decibel Day-Night Average 
Sound Level contour as determined by sound studies, such as an 
environmental impact statement.

              DEFENSE SECURITY COOPERATION AGENCY PROGRAMS

    The agreement does not include funding for a proposed 
National Defense Strategy Implementation Account. Instead, the 
agreement provides separate funding for International Security 
Cooperation Programs and the Combating Terrorism and Irregular 
Warfare Fellowship Program. The agreement provides $55,840,000 
above the budget request for countries in the Africa Command 
area of responsibility and $46,156,000 above the budget request 
for countries in the Southern Command area of responsibility 
for International Security Cooperation Programs. The agreement 
directs that such amounts are in addition to requested program 
levels and shall only be obligated for additional programs 
within each respective combatant command.
    Prior to the initial obligation of funds made available in 
titles II and IX of this Act for the Defense Security 
Cooperation Agency (DSCA), the Director of DSCA shall submit a 
spend plan for each program listed in the budget justification 
documents for DSCA to the House and Senate Appropriations 
Committees. For funds planned for International Security 
Cooperation Programs, the Director shall, in coordination with 
the commanders of each geographic combatant command, include 
amounts planned for each combatant command and country, and a 
comparison to such amounts provided in the prior three fiscal 
years. Amounts in the spend plan shall only reflect amounts 
requested in the fiscal year 2021 budget justification 
materials and modified by the fiscal year 2021 appropriations 
adjustments in the table under this heading for DSCA. Prior to 
obligation of funds that would deviate from the plan, the 
Director shall provide an updated plan to such Committees 
outlining any changes between each program listed in the budget 
justification documents or between combatant commands or 
countries, and a justification for the changes. Concurrent with 
the submission of the fiscal year 2022 budget request, the 
Director shall also provide to such Committees a breakout of 
the request for International Security Cooperation Programs by 
combatant command and country.
    This language replaces the funding levels specified in 
House Report 116-453 under the heading ``Defense Security 
Cooperation Programs''. The Secretary of Defense shall follow 
the other directives under this heading in House Report 116-
453.

                           EL MOZOTE MASSACRE

    Not later than 60 days after the date of enactment of this 
Act, the Secretary of Defense, in coordination with the 
Secretary of State, shall provide all relevant information and 
documents to the appropriate judicial authorities in El 
Salvador investigating the December 1981 massacre in El Mozote. 
Additionally, not later than 30 days following such action, the 
Secretary of Defense shall submit a report to the Committees on 
Appropriations of the House of Representatives and the Senate 
describing the information and documents provided and the 
authorities that received them.

                         RENAMING INSTITUTIONS

    The agreement does not adopt the language under the heading 
``Renaming Institutions'' in House Report 116-453.

          RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER OF ITEMS TO LAW ENFORCEMENT

    In lieu of Section 8132 of the House bill, the agreement 
supports section 1053 of the William M. (Mac) Thornberry 
National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2021 and 
directs the Department to provide a report detailing its 
compliance with such section not later than 120 days after the 
date of enactment of this Act and quarterly thereafter.

      FUNDING FOR THE DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE ACQUISITION WORKFORCE

    The fiscal year 2021 President's budget request proposes to 
transfer $140,320,000 previously programmed in the Department 
of Defense Acquisition Workforce Development Account (DAWDA) to 
the Army, Navy, and Air Force operation and maintenance 
accounts for the acquisition workforce. These transfers are 
supported in this agreement, and the requirement to maintain 
visibility into funding for the acquisition workforce is 
addressed in the ``Operation and Maintenance'' section of this 
explanatory statement. In addition, the fiscal year 2021 
President's budget request includes $58,181,000 in DAWDA. 
Support for the Department of Defense acquisition workforceis 
reiterated, and an additional $30,000,000 for DAWDA training and 
development is provided due to increased demands on the acquisition 
workforce.
    It is expected that the Under Secretary of Defense 
(Comptroller), the Under Secretary of Defense (Acquisition and 
Sustainment), the Director, Cost Assessment and Program 
Evaluation, as well as the Service acquisition executives and 
Service financial managers and comptroller will continue to 
include clearly identified and appropriate funding requests for 
the Department of Defense acquisition workforce in DAWDA and 
the Services' operation and maintenance appropriation accounts.

   DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE ACQUISITION WORKFORCE REPORTING REQUIREMENTS

    The Under Secretary for Defense (Acquisition and 
Sustainment) is directed to provide the Department of Defense 
Acquisition Workforce annual report to the congressional 
defense committees not later than 30 days after the submission 
of the fiscal year 2022 President's budget request. Further, as 
in previous years, the Under Secretary of Defense (Acquisition 
and Sustainment) is directed to provide to the congressional 
defense committees, with the submission of the fiscal year 2022 
President's budget request, additional details regarding total 
funding for the acquisition workforce by funding category and 
appropriations accounts.

    DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE ACQUISITION WORKFORCE DEVELOPMENT ACCOUNT 
                         REPROGRAMMING GUIDANCE

    The Secretary of Defense is directed to follow 
reprogramming guidance for the Department of Defense 
Acquisition Workforce Development Account (DAWDA) consistent 
with reprogramming guidance for acquisition accounts detailed 
elsewhere in this explanatory statement. The dollar threshold 
for reprogramming DAWDA funds remains $10,000,000.

                         TITLE III--PROCUREMENT

    The agreement provides $136,532,968,000 in Title III, 
Procurement, as follows:

[GRAPHIC(S) NOT AVAILABLE IN TIFF FORMAT]

            REPROGRAMMING GUIDANCE FOR ACQUISITION ACCOUNTS

      (INCLUDING BASE AND OVERSEAS CONTINGENCY OPERATIONS FUNDING)

    The Secretary of Defense is directed to continue to follow 
the reprogramming guidance as specified in the report 
accompanying the House version of the Department of Defense 
Appropriations bill for Fiscal Year 2008 (House Report 110-
279). Specifically, the dollar threshold for reprogramming 
funds shall be $10,000,000 for procurement and research, 
development, test and evaluation.
    Also, the Under Secretary of Defense (Comptroller) is 
directed to continue to provide the congressional defense 
committees quarterly, spreadsheet-based DD Form 1416 reports 
for Service and defense-wide accounts in titles III and IV of 
this Act. Reports for titles III and IV shall comply with the 
guidance specified in the explanatory statement accompanying 
the Department of Defense Appropriations Act, 2006. The 
Department shall continue to follow the limitation that prior 
approval reprogrammings are set at either the specified dollar 
threshold or 20 percent of the procurement or research, 
development, test and evaluation line, whichever is less. These 
thresholds are cumulative from the base for reprogramming value 
as modified by any adjustments. Therefore, if the combined 
value of transfers into or out of a procurement (P-1) or 
research, development, test and evaluation (R-1) line exceeds 
the identified threshold, the Secretary of Defense must submit 
a prior approval reprogramming to the congressional defense 
committees. In addition, guidelines on the application of prior 
approval reprogramming procedures for congressional special 
interest items are established elsewhere in this statement.

                           FUNDING INCREASES

    The funding increases outlined in these tables shall be 
provided only for the specific purposes indicated in the 
tables.

                   PROCUREMENT SPECIAL INTEREST ITEMS

    Items for which additional funds have been recommended or 
items for which funding is specifically reduced as shown in the 
project level tables detailing recommended adjustments or in 
paragraphs using the phrase ``only for'' or ``only to'' in the 
explanatory statement are congressional special interest items 
for the purpose of the Base for Reprogramming (DD Form 1414). 
Each of these items must be carried on the DD Form 1414 at the 
stated amount, as specifically addressed elsewhere in the 
explanatory statement.

                   BUDGETING FOR ADVANCE PROCUREMENT

    Advance procurement (AP) appropriations are provided as an 
exception to the policy of full funding of end items. AP 
funding is, by policy, for procurement of long lead items when 
early procurement allows for production schedules to be 
maintained.
    In the fiscal year 2020 President's budget request, the 
Navy planned to procure 12 CH-53Ks in fiscal year 2021 and 
therefore requested and was subsequently appropriated 
$215,000,000 in AP for those 12 aircraft. However, the fiscal 
year 2021 President's budget request includes $813,324,000 in 
Aircraft Procurement, Navy for the procurement of seven CH-53K 
helicopters, a reduction of $515,464,000 and a quantity of five 
aircraft from the amount identified in the prior year budget 
justification materials for fiscal year 2021. Not only did the 
Navy reduce the number of helicopters requested in fiscal year 
2021 contrary to its prior year plans, it failed to fully 
budget for the procurement of the seven CH-53Ks requested. The 
budget request proposed to apply excess fiscal year 2020 AP 
appropriations to cover the balance of the fiscal year 2021 
funding shortfall. This blurs the line between the purpose for 
AP funding and full funding of procurement items, which injects 
uncertainty into the industrial base, jeopardizes the stability 
of the program, and complicates oversight. In addition, 
downward adjustments to end items following the request for and 
receipt of advance procurement appropriations absent a clear 
rationale, such as a reduction in the acquisition objective or 
challenges with the industrial base, violate the agreement 
between the Department of Defense and the congressional defense 
committees with respect to granting exceptions to the full 
funding policy. Similar downward adjustments to end items 
following receipt of advance procurement appropriations 
occurred in the budget requests for the F-35A, F-35B, MQ-4, and 
several shipbuilding programs in recent years.
    Therefore, the Under Secretary of Defense (Comptroller), in 
coordination with the Service acquisition executives, is 
directed to provide with the fiscal year 2022 President's 
budget request, and for each submission thereafter, for any 
program for which AP is requested, the following information to 
the congressional defense committees: a list of the long lead 
items to be procured and associated end item this material will 
be incorporated into, the quantity of each type of item, the 
unit cost of each type of item, the schedule for production of 
each of the items, an assessment of how much time and cost is 
saved by using advance procurement funding to buy the long lead 
items requested, and certification that the balance of the 
funds for end items is included in the budget submission.

                     ARSENAL SUSTAINMENT INITIATIVE

    The agreement continues to support the Secretary of the 
Army's efforts to ensure that the critical manufacturing 
capabilities of the nation's organic industrial base are 
maintained and commends the Army for issuing a definitive make-
or-buy directive for the manufacturing arsenals. The guidance 
ensures that arsenals will be given fair consideration for 
every Army acquisition; provides for a 30-day review of all 
such decisions by the Army Acquisition Executive; requires all 
private sector companies to consider the arsenals as a 
potential supplier of component parts; and provides for an 
annual review of this overall process. The Secretary of the 
Army is encouraged to implement the directive consistently to 
ensure the arsenals have the workload necessary to maintain the 
proficiency and capacity to meet the manufacturing needs of the 
nation during war and peacetime. The agreement notes that it 
has not yet received detailed recommendations from the 
Secretary of Defense on how the Air Force, Navy, and Marine 
Corps can better use the arsenals for their manufacturing 
needs, or what opportunities may exist for the arsenals to 
assist the Services and the Defense Logistics Agency to procure 
for the spare parts inventory of the Department of Defense, as 
required by Senate Report 114-63.

                      ARMY ORGANIC INDUSTRIAL BASE

    The Secretary of the Army is directed to provide 45-day 
written notification to the congressional defense committees 
prior to approving civilian reductions in force that will 
result in an employment loss of 50 or more full-time employees 
at any Army organic industrial base facility. The notification 
shall include the impact that the proposed reduction in force 
will have on the ability to maintain the organic industrial 
base critical manufacturing capabilities as delineated in the 
Army Organic Industrial Base Strategy Report, a detailed 
accounting of the costs of implementing the reduction in force, 
and an assessment of the cost of, and time necessary, 
restoration of any lost capability to meet future organic 
wartime manufacturing needs.

                       AIRCRAFT PROCUREMENT, ARMY

    The agreement provides $3,457,342,000 for Aircraft 
Procurement, Army, as follows:

[GRAPHIC(S) NOT AVAILABLE IN TIFF FORMAT]


                           CHINOOK HELICOPTER

    The agreement fully funds the request of six MH-47G 
retrofits and includes one CH-47F war replacement aircraft. In 
addition, the agreement provides sufficient funding for the 
first five F Block II aircraft in fiscal year 2021, and advance 
procurement funding to enable long-lead materials for the 
second lot of five F Block II aircraft in fiscal year 2022. The 
Chinook is the only heavy lift cargo helicopter in the Army 
inventory for which the Army currently has no replacement 
plans. Further, the Chief of Staff of the Army certified the 
need for Block II capability less than three years ago and the 
Department of Defense Appropriations Act, 2020 outlined certain 
expectations for future CH-47F Block II funding.
    The Army has embarked upon an ambitious modernization 
initiative which has been supported by Congress and the Army 
must make difficult decisions to resource its plan. However, 
Army heavy lift capability will continue to be an essential 
part of the National Defense Strategy and its emphasis on near-
peer competitors. Furthermore, the capability gaps that led to 
the Block II research and development efforts exist today, and 
significantly delaying improved heavy lift upgrades will defer 
important capability that is currently needed.
    Finally, the Army's decision to delay production of CH-47 
Block II aircraft has resulted in significant overhead costs 
being shifted onto the MH-47G line, even though congressional 
support of F Block II remains evident. The Secretary of the 
Army is directed to provide quarterly reports, not later than 
30 days after the end of each fiscal quarter, to the House and 
Senate Appropriations Committees outlining budget execution 
data for the CH-47 Helicopter and advance procurement budget 
lines, including detailed obligation and expenditure of all 
overhead costs.

                       MISSILE PROCUREMENT, ARMY

    The agreement provides $3,220,541,000 for Missile 
Procurement, Army, as follows:

[GRAPHIC(S) NOT AVAILABLE IN TIFF FORMAT]

                 MK93 MACHINE GUN MOUNT UPGRADE PROGRAM

    The agreement encourages the Secretary of the Army to 
include funding for the Mk93 machine gun mount upgrade in the 
fiscal year 2022 President's budget request. Further the 
Secretary of the Army is directed to provide a report to the 
congressional defense committees, not later than 90 days after 
the enactment of this Act, which details plans to implement the 
Mk93 machine gun mount upgrade.

                    PROCUREMENT OF AMMUNITION, ARMY

    The agreement provides $2,790,140,000 for Procurement of 
Ammunition, Army, as follows:

          ARMY NON-LETHAL CONDUCTIVE ELECTRICAL WEAPON UPGRADE

    The Army currently is working to upgrade its existing 
stocks of Conductive Electrical Weapons (CEWs), which are five 
years past their recommended end-of-life date. Functionality is 
critical at the moment personnel determine non-lethal force is 
warranted, but currently deployed taser CEWs have an 
unacceptably high risk of failing to operate when most needed, 
which could necessitate an escalation to lethal force. The 
Secretary of the Army is encouraged to proceed with the ongoing 
qualification efforts. There is concern over the lack of any 
published plan to immediately transition from qualification to 
procurement and deployment. This raises a concern that the Army 
will still be using outdated and unsupported CEW models even 
after qualification occurs. Therefore, the Assistant Secretary 
of the Army (Acquisition, Logistics and Technology) is directed 
to submit a report to the congressional defense committees, not 
later than 60 days after the enactment of this Act, detailing a 
five-year upgrade plan for CEWs, including whether the Army has 
considered the possible benefits of a continuous support and 
upgrade plan.

                        OTHER PROCUREMENT, ARMY

    The agreement provides $8,603,112,000 for Other 
Procurement, Army, as follows:

[GRAPHIC(S) NOT AVAILABLE IN TIFF FORMAT]


                   FAMILY OF MEDIUM TACTICAL VEHICLES

    The Program Executive Officer, Combat Support and Combat 
Service Support (PEO CS&CSS) has engaged in open dialogue 
regarding the transition of Family of Medium Tactical Vehicles 
(FMTV) from A1P2 to A2 vehicle variants. The Secretary of the 
Army is encouraged to continue pursuing the A2 variant. The 
Army historically has reported a Minimum Sustaining Rate (MSR) 
of one new vehicle per manufacturing day for the FMTV program 
and has programmed funding accordingly; however, recently the 
Army has acknowledged an actual MSR of three new vehicles per 
day. Failing to adequately program FMTV funding at the actual 
MSR risks negatively impacting the FMTV supply chain, which 
risks the health of the program. Interruption of the program 
would negatively impact Army readiness and modernization, erode 
the industrial base capacity, and add cost due to production 
breaks.
    The agreement includes an additional $86,000,000 for the 
FMTV program and the PEO CS&CSS is expected to program funding 
at the MSR of three new vehicles per manufacturing day. The PEO 
CS&CSS is further expected to reflect this revised FMTV MSR in 
budget justification materials commencing with the fiscal year 
2022 budget request. Due to concerns with the FMTV supply 
chain, the Secretary of the Army is directed to provide a 
briefing not later than 90 days after the enactment of this Act 
to the congressional defense committees detailing its 
acquisition and budget plan to support the MSR of three new 
vehicles per manufacturing day through the remainder of the 
current contract.

                        ARCTIC OVERLAND MOBILITY

    The Secretary of the Army is encouraged to pursue equipment 
and vehicles necessary for the Arctic and other cold weather 
environments. As such, the agreement includes $8,250,000 above 
the fiscal year 2021 President's budget request for the Family 
of Cold Weather Vehicles to expedite planned procurement. In 
addition to funding, not later than 60 days after the enactment 
of this Act, the Assistant Secretary of the Army (Acquisition, 
Logistics, and Technology) is directed to submit a report to 
the congressional defense committees on Arctic overland 
mobility capabilities. The report shall include a description 
and assessment of current capabilities, requirements, and 
operational challenges for cold weather tracked vehicles; an 
assessment of the current family of cold weather all-terrain 
vehicle program, together with a detailed justification of the 
current procurement timeline for that program; and an 
assessment of requirements for a joint program.

                 INTEGRATED VISUAL AUGMENTATION SYSTEM

    The Army's efforts to modernize the force and maintain 
squad level overmatch against peer competitors is commendable, 
particularly the Army's iterative development approach. The 
Integrated Visual Augmentation System (IVAS) program includes a 
continual feedback cycle with industry and soldiers through 
both instrumented test and qualitative measurements. The 
agreement includes funding that will enable the start of 
procurement in support of the Army's plans to provide equipment 
to Close Combat Forces.
    The IVAS program is pursuing an aggressive fielding 
schedule to a large population of Close Combat Forces, 
resulting in a significant low-rate initial production 
procurement for an end-item that has not been operationally 
tested using production representative units, or its 
militarized form factor, as is planned for Soldier Touch Point 
Four. While the technology represents a potential leap-ahead in 
capability, it is essential that an appropriate amount of 
operational testing, including use by soldiers in realistic 
combat conditions with production representative units, inform 
the Army's decision to move to large-scale procurement. 
Therefore, the Program Executive Officer Soldier, in 
coordination with the program manager for IVAS, is directed to 
provide a briefing to the congressional defense committees, not 
later than 60 days after conclusion of Soldier Touch Point 
Four, to identify hardware and software design changes that 
will be incorporated into the final form factor prior to 
initiation of the first procurement lot.
    Further, beginning with the fiscal year 2022 President's 
budget request, the program manager for IVAS is directed to 
provide the following information as cost elements within the 
P-40 budget line item justification, P-5 cost analysis, and P-
5A procurement history and planning budget exhibits for IVAS: 
heads up display, puck, conformal wearable battery, IVAS radio, 
advance battery charger, and tactical cloud package. For each 
item, quantity, unit cost, contract award schedule, and 
manufacturer information should be provided. The program budget 
briefings should include information about the size of the 
force that will receive the hardware and software requested in 
the budget year. The program manager is encouraged to provide 
any additional information, including additional cost elements, 
that will add clarity and specificity regarding overall 
procurement within the multi-billion dollar investment.

                       AIRCRAFT PROCUREMENT, NAVY

    The agreement provides $19,480,280,000 for Aircraft 
Procurement, Navy, as follows:

[GRAPHIC(S) NOT AVAILABLE IN TIFF FORMAT]

                   F/A-18 E/F SUPER HORNET PRODUCTION

    The Navy has recently placed a focus on reducing the strike 
fighter shortfall and improving the readiness of its tactical 
aviation fleet. As such, the agreement includes support for the 
F/A-18 E/F Super Hornet program and funds the request for 24 
aircraft in fiscal year 2021. However, the agreement recognizes 
that the elimination of the F/A-18 E/F aircraft from the future 
years defense program results in a reduction of three years of 
production and three squadrons of aircraft from the previously 
planned future years defense program. The Navy's decision to 
eliminate future production of F/A-18 E/F aircraft is premature 
and requires further analysis. The Navy states that this 
elimination of new aircraft is offset by the startup of the F/
A-18E/F Service Life Modification (SLM) program, which will 
extend the life of the Super Hornet fleet and maintain tactical 
aviation readiness. While this is somewhat true, the SLM 
program is in its nascent stage and will take time to 
contribute to fleet readiness levels. SLM also relies on a 
production line of new Super Hornets for on-time parts and 
production expertise. It is unclear if the Navy has assessed 
the impact of eliminating new Super Hornets on SLM cost, 
effectiveness, and the long-term cost of sustaining an 
increasingly aging fleet.
    The Secretary of the Navy is directed to submit a report to 
the congressional defense committees not later than 45 days 
after the enactment of this Act that provides an update on the 
Navy's strike fighter shortfall projected over the next 20 
years, the impact of these previously mentioned outyear 
aircraft reductions on this shortfall, and an updated schedule 
of inductions and deliveries of aircraft in the SLM program. 
Further, the Director, Cost Assessment and Program Evaluation 
is directed to provide a report to the congressional defense 
committees not later than 45 days after the enactment of this 
Act on the life-cycle cost assessment of aircraft inducted 
through SLM and new aircraft, including procurement, personnel, 
and cost-per-flight hour comparisons.

                   JOINT STRIKE FIGHTER SERVICE LIFE

    The fiscal year 2021 President's budget request includes 
$259,040,000 for F-35B and F-35C modifications. This is an 
increase of $178,097,000 above the fiscal year 2020 enacted 
level. The majority of this program increase is to support the 
structural life limited parts (SLLP) program, which has a 
future years defense program (FYDP) estimate of $1,447,588,000. 
The increase was not projected in the fiscal year 2020 
President's budget request, when the FYDP projection was 
$283,881,000, which is $1,163,707,000 less than what is 
reflected in fiscal year 2021.
    The structural life limited parts program will be a 
significant effort going forward. The F-35 program has 
experienced increasing maturity and the Joint Program Office 
has appropriately focused on the long-term sustainment costs of 
all variants of the aircraft. With the significant investment 
that has been made and will continue to be made into the 
future, it is imperative that the service life of the aircraft 
be adequately understood and any programmatic efforts to extend 
the service life be fully detailed to the congressional defense 
committees.
    There is a concern by the lack of detail about the SLLP 
program in the P-40, budget line item justification, and the P-
3a, individual modification, exhibits and the supporting budget 
briefing materials. The budget materials should contain more 
detail going forward, to include visibility into A kits, B 
kits, installations, and support costs for SLLP-related 
engineering change proposals.
    The Assistant Secretary of the Navy (Research, Development 
and Acquisition), in coordination with the Program Executive 
Officer, F-35 Joint Program Office, is directed to provide, not 
later than 30 days after the enactment of this Act, a briefing 
to the congressional defense committees on the service life 
extension efforts. The briefing shall include--by variant--
costs to date, the planned total investment in the effort, 
service life of aircraft after investment is complete, and the 
schedule for the effort. The briefing should also include 
information about any cost-sharing between the Department of 
Defense and the manufacturer.

Conversion, Navy, as follows:

[GRAPHIC(S) NOT AVAILABLE IN TIFF FORMAT]


        BUDGET JUSTIFICATION MATERIALS FOR SHIPBUILDING PROGRAMS

    It is noted that Federal appropriations law requires that 
the entire procurement cost of a weapon be funded in the fiscal 
year in which the item is procured (``full funding policy''). 
However, Congress has provided legislative exceptions to the 
full funding policy for several shipbuilding programs that are 
funded with fiscal year 2021 appropriations, including SSBNs 
826, 827, 828, 829, 830, 831, 832, 833, 834, 835, 836, and 837; 
USS Enterprise (CVN 80) and USS Doris Miller (CVN 81); aircraft 
carrier refueling and complex overhauls of USS George 
Washington (CVN 73), USS John C. Stennis (CVN 74), and USS 
Harry S. Truman (CVN 75); LPDs 31, 32, and 33; and LHA 9. The 
legislative authorities for exceptions to the full funding 
policy and appropriations for these programs were provided at 
the request of the Navy with the understanding that these 
exceptions would improve the Navy's purchasing power and 
improve maritime capacity and capability, and that subsequent 
budget submissions would fully reflect these acquisition and 
funding strategies.
    However, the Navy's budget justification materials for 
incrementally funded shipbuilding programs have not been 
updated to reflect exceptions to the full funding policy, and 
the current P-5c, ``Ship Cost Activity'', P-8a, ``Analysis of 
Ship Cost Estimates'', and P-35, ``Major Ship Component Fact 
Sheet'', budget exhibits do not clearly explain or justify 
funds identified on the P-40, ``Budget Line Item 
Justification'', budget exhibit for the pending budget request. 
It is further noted that the Navy's detailed budget 
justification briefs also do not routinely contain such 
information, nor is additional amplifying information provided 
at the time of the budget submission, despite previous 
congressional direction to do so. The House and Senate 
Appropriations Committees do not believe that future Navy 
budget requests can be supported absent improved budget 
justification materials for incrementally funded shipbuilding 
programs. Therefore, the Assistant Secretary of the Navy 
(Financial Management and Comptroller), in consultation with 
the Assistant Secretary of the Navy (Research, Development and 
Acquisition), is directed to provide to the congressional 
defense committees, not later than 30 days after the enactment 
of this Act, templates for improved Navy budget justification 
materials and budget justification briefs for all Navy 
shipbuilding programs.

                       COLUMBIA CLASS SUBMARINES

    The fiscal year 2021 President's budget request includes 
$4,014,650,000 in Shipbuilding and Conversion, Navy for the 
incrementally funded procurement of the first COLUMBIA Class 
submarine (CLB) and for advance procurement (AP) of eleven 
additional hulls of the COLUMBIA class. It is noted that 
unprecedented acquisition and funding flexibilities have been 
provided by the Congress for the acquisition of the CLB, 
including authority to enter into economic order quantity 
contracts in fiscal year 2016, authority to award contracts for 
advance construction in fiscal year 2016, authority to award 
contracts for continuous production in fiscal year 2017, the 
expansion of such continuous production authority in fiscal 
year 2018, incremental funding authority for advance 
procurement in fiscal year 2016, authority for incremental full 
funding of the first two CLB submarines in fiscal year 2021, 
and sizeable additional appropriations to support the submarine 
industrial base for both COLUMBIA and VIRGINIA Class 
submarines.
    Additionally, in fiscal year 2021, the Navy requested 
three-year AP appropriations of nuclear propulsion equipment 
components for the second CLB, which is believed to be an 
unprecedented use of AP but is not objected to in this 
agreement in this instance. However, the House and Senate 
Appropriations Committees are concerned about the potential use 
of such AP in the future. Therefore, the Assistant Secretary of 
the Navy (Research, Development and Acquisition), in 
consultation with the Assistant Secretary of the Navy 
(Financial Manager and Comptroller) is directed to submit to 
the congressional defense committees, with submission of the 
President's fiscal year 2022 budget request, a certification of 
the need for any three-year AP requested in fiscal year 2022, 
as well as to provide a detailed execution update by component 
of three-year AP appropriated in fiscal year 2021, to include 
any deviations from information previously provided to the 
congressional defense committees in support of the Navy's 
three-year AP request for nuclear propulsion equipment in 
fiscal year 2021.
    It is noted that despite the significant legislative 
support provided by the Congress for the CLB, challenges have 
occurred in certain design, prototyping, and advance 
construction efforts of the program. In particular, ongoing 
missile tube issues have consumed the majority of the common 
missile compartment schedule margin, thereby causing additional 
risk to the ship construction schedule. It is further noted 
that despite the Navy leadership's repeated statements that the 
CLB is the Navy's top acquisition priority, the Navy's budgets 
and acquisition plans do not reflect that. For instance, the 
fiscal year 2021 budget request for the COLUMBIA class includes 
$16,400,000 for the submarine industrial base, a decrease of 
$129,000,000 from amounts appropriated for that purpose in 
fiscal year 2020, despite repeated statements by Navy 
leadership that the supplier industrial base presents the most 
significant risk to the program. Further, the Navy continues to 
inject risk into the CLB program by destabilizing the VIRGINIA 
Class submarine program, as addressed elsewhere in this 
explanatory statement. An additional $130,000,000 is 
recommended to support the submarine industrial base. Further 
erosion of performance of the CLB program would warrant a 
review of the Department of Defense and Navy acquisition 
enterprise as it relates to submarines.

                       VIRGINIA CLASS SUBMARINES

    The fiscal year 2021 President's budget request includes 
$4,235,880,000 for the procurement of a single VIRGINIA Class 
submarine (VCS) as part of a nine-ship Block V multi-year 
procurement (MYP) contract that was awarded in December 2019. 
It is noted that this contract includes options for one 
additional VCS in fiscal years 2021, 2022, or 2023. It is 
further noted that the Block V contract award represents a 
change to the Navy's acquisition strategy for Block V VCS from 
fiscal years 2018 and 2019, when the Navy requested and was 
authorized MYP authority for a ten-ship Block V VCS 
acquisition.
    The Navy's continued injection of programmatic, 
acquisition, and fiscal uncertainty into the VCS program is 
concerning because it likely will have detrimental effects on 
the acquisition of the COLUMBIA Class. Therefore, the agreement 
recommends an additional $2,568,000,000 to fully fund a tenth 
VCS for the current MYP in fiscal year 2021. The Assistant 
Secretary of the Navy (Research, Development and Acquisition) 
is directed to provide an update to the congressional defense 
committees on the Navy's submarine enterprise management and 
acquisition plans, to include progress updates on VCS Block IV 
performance and cost impacts, not later than with the fiscal 
year 2022 President's budget request.

                 DDG-51 FLIGHT III ACQUISITION STRATEGY

    It is noted that the current multi-year procurement (MYP) 
contract for the DDG-51 Flight III destroyer ends in fiscal 
year 2022 and that with the submission of the fiscal year 2021 
President's budget request the Navy further delayed the 
detailed design and construction schedule of the planned 
follow-on program, the future Large Surface Combatant (LSC), 
until no earlier than fiscal year 2026. It is further noted 
that despite this delay to LSC, the Navy is planning to procure 
only four DDG-51 Flight III destroyers from fiscal years 2023 
to 2025, well below the current 2.4 DDG-51 destroyers per year 
MYP acquisition, and that in each of the last two budget 
submissions the Navy has reduced the procurement profile for 
DDG-51 Flight III destroyers. This is inconsistent with 
previously stated shipbuilding objectives, and the lack of a 
predictable and stable acquisition strategy for large surface 
combatants undercuts naval maritime superiority and injects 
risk into the industrial base. The Assistant Secretary of the 
Navy (Research, Development and Acquisition) is directed to 
provide to the congressional defense committees, with 
submission of the fiscal year 2022 President's budget request, 
the Navy's fully funded strategy for large surface combatants. 
The agreement recommends an additional $130,000,000 in advance 
procurement only for an additional DDG-51 Flight III destroyer 
in fiscal year 2022.

                      CONSTELLATION CLASS FRIGATE

    The fiscal year 2021 President's budget request includes 
$1,053,123,000 for the procurement of a second CONSTELLATION 
Class Frigate (CCF). The detail design and construction 
contract for FFG 62 (USS CONSTELLATION), the first ship of the 
class, was awarded in April 2020, and the Navy plans a design 
period of no less than 14 months prior to the start of 
construction of FFG 62 in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 
2022. It is noted that the Navy did not plan a gap year' 
between construction of the first and second ships of the CCF 
that would allow for potential design changes to be 
incorporated into the build plan prior to the start of 
construction of the second ship. Instead, the Navy plans to 
exercise the contract option for the second CCF ship in fiscal 
year 2021 prior to the conclusion of the Critical Design and 
Production Readiness Reviews scheduled in fiscal year 2022, and 
plans to start construction of the second ship in the first 
quarter of fiscal year 2023.
    Given the Navy's past challenges in managing costs and 
schedule of lead ships of a class, it is believed that a high 
percentage of design completion is necessary to ensure success 
of this new shipbuilding program. For instance, it is noted 
that the previous class of small surface combatants, with 
arrangements for the two ship designs 60 percent and 34 percent 
complete at the start of construction, respectively, 
experienced cost growth in excess of 150 percent. By contrast, 
arrangements are 100 percent complete and design disclosures 
were over 80 percent complete prior to the start of 
construction of the COLUMBIA Class submarine.
    The Assistant Secretary of the Navy (Research, Development 
and Acquisition) is directed to provide to the congressional 
defense committees, not later than with the fiscal year 2022 
President's budget request, quarterly planned and actual design 
progress curves for technical requirements, arrangements, 
design disclosures, and work instructions for the CCF leading 
up to the start of construction of FFG 62. It is further 
directed that no funds for construction of the second CCF may 
be obligated until the Director, Cost Assessment and Program 
Evaluation has provided the congressional defense committees an 
updated cost assessment for the CCF based on the actual ship 
award and design changes implemented since the previous 
Independent Cost Estimate.

fulfill those requirements, justification for any planned or 
proposed reduction in fleet size, and the extent to which these 
requirements need to be refined by further study and analysis. 
The report shall also provide, through the entire future years 
defense program (FYDP), the current and projected C-130 total 
active aerospace vehicle inventory and backup aerospace vehicle 
inventory by unit and variant, including aircraft in attrition 
reserve. Further, the report shall describe modernization and 
recapitalization plans for C-130 aircraft through the FYDP, 
along with funding requirements by appropriation and budget 
line item. Finally, to the extent that the Air Force plans or 
proposes to reduce aircraft inventory from fiscal year 2021

estimated service life of the aircraft, trends in operating 
costs and mission capable rate, known sustainment and safety 
problems, the benefits of both completed and planned aircraft 
modifications, and an estimate of the cost of replacing these 
aircraft with C-130Js, including the cost of the required 
unique mission modifications. Further, the report shall be

          TITLE IV--RESEARCH, DEVELOPMENT, TEST AND EVALUATION

    The agreement provides $107,135,164,000 in Title IV, 
Research, Development, Test and Evaluation, as follows:

[GRAPHIC(S) NOT AVAILABLE IN TIFF FORMAT]


            REPROGRAMMING GUIDANCE FOR ACQUISITION ACCOUNTS

      (INCLUDING BASE AND OVERSEAS CONTINGENCY OPERATIONS FUNDING)

    The Secretary of Defense is directed to continue to follow 
the reprogramming guidance as specified in the report 
accompanying the House version of the Department of Defense 
Appropriations bill for Fiscal Year 2008 (House Report 110-
279). Specifically, the dollar threshold for reprogramming 
funds shall be $10,000,000 for procurement and research, 
development, test and evaluation.
    Also, the Under Secretary of Defense (Comptroller) is 
directed to continue to provide the congressional defense 
committees quarterly, spreadsheet-based DD Form 1416 reports 
for Service and defense-wide accounts in titles III and IV of 
this Act. Reports for titles III and IV shall comply with the 
guidance specified in the explanatory statement accompanying 
the Department of Defense Appropriations Act, 2006. The 
Department shall continue to follow the limitation that prior 
approval reprogrammings are set at either the specified dollar 
threshold or 20 percent of the procurement or research, 
development, test and evaluation line, whichever is less. These 
thresholds are cumulative from the base for reprogramming value 
as modified by any adjustments. Therefore, if the combined 
value of transfers into or out of a procurement (P-1) or 
research, development, test and evaluation (R-1) line exceeds 
the identified threshold, the Secretary of Defense must submit 
a prior approval reprogramming to the congressional defense 
committees. In addition, guidelines on the application of prior 
approval reprogramming procedures for congressional special 
interest items are established elsewhere in this statement.

                           FUNDING INCREASES

    The funding increases outlined in these tables shall be 
provided only for the specific purposes indicated in the 
tables.

   RESEARCH, DEVELOPMENT, TEST AND EVALUATION SPECIAL INTEREST ITEMS

    Items for which additional funds have been recommended or 
items for which funding is specifically reduced as shown in the 
project level tables detailing recommended adjustments or in 
paragraphs using the phrase ``only for'' or ``only to'' in the 
explanatory statement are congressional special interest items 
for the purpose of the Base for Reprogramming (DD Form 1414). 
Each of these items must be carried on the DD Form 1414 at the 
stated amount, as specifically addressed elsewhere in the 
explanatory statement.

             SOFTWARE AND DIGITAL TECHNOLOGY PILOT PROGRAMS

    The agreement includes a modified version of the new 
general provision submitted with the fiscal year 2021 
President's budget request for Software and Digital Technology 
Pilot programs funded in a new Budget Activity Eight within the 
Research, Development, Test and Evaluation accounts. The 
agreement acknowledges the Department's rationale regarding the 
incremental technical challenges posed by modern software 
development, including implementing technical fixes to existing 
code, addressing cyber vulnerabilities, and integrating 
incrementally developed new capabilities. However, the 
agreement modifies the general provision under the premise that 
objective quantitative and qualitative evidence is needed to 
evaluate potential expansion of the approved pilot programs. 
Further, seeking additional flexibility in the execution of 
appropriations should not be a solution to internal accounting 
and guidance issues that challenge the Department's ability to 
execute these programs. The agreement encourages the Secretary 
of Defense to execute the recommended pilot programs through 
fiscal years 2021 and 2022, while performing a detailed 
analysis of the Department's accounting and financial 
management process for such pilot programs as compared to 
existing software and digital technology programs.
    The Secretary of Defense is directed to submit a report to 
the congressional defense committees, not later than 90 days 
after the enactment of this Act, which details the Department's 
assessment plan for each of the programs recommended in the 
general provision. This report shall include, at a minimum: 
quantitative and qualitative metrics; identification of eight 
similar programs, with representations from each Service, 
funded through traditional appropriation legislation to assess 
concurrently for comparison; and a plan to assess each pilot 
program against their own historical performance when funded 
through traditional appropriation legislation. Following 
submission of the assessment plan prescribed above, the 
Secretary of Defense is directed to provide quarterly reports 
on the status of each pilot program to the congressional 
defense committees.

     TRANSITION OF PROGRAMS FROM THE STRATEGIC CAPABILITIES OFFICE

    The fiscal year 2021 President's budget request includes 
$730,508,000 in Research, Development, Test and Evaluation, 
Defense-Wide for programs managed and executed by the Strategic 
Capabilities Office (SCO). The transition of several programs 
from SCO to the Services is supported to the extent that they 
address Service requirements. However, it is concerning that 
for programs planned for transition from SCO to the Services, 
detailed cost, schedule, and budget data are not routinely 
included with budget justification materials submitted by 
either SCO or the Services. Further, it is noted that SCO and 
the Services frequently use different program names when 
describing the same effort, which complicates the traceability 
of programs and funding, and hampers congressional oversight.
    Therefore, the Director, SCO, in coordination with the 
Service acquisition executives, is directed to provide to the 
congressional defense committees, with submission of the fiscal 
year 2022 President's budget request, a matrix identifying SCO 
programs with their SCO and respective transition partners' 
detailed program schedules, and future years defense program 
profiles by fiscal year, appropriation account, and program 
element. Finally, the Secretary of Defense is directed to 
continue to provide quarterly obligation and expenditure 
reports for SCO by project to the congressional defense 
committees.

          MID-TIER ACQUISITION AND RAPID PROTOTYPING PROGRAMS

    The fiscal year 2021 President's budget request includes 
funding in the research, development, test and evaluation 
appropriations accounts for Army, Navy, Air Force, Space Force, 
and Defense-Wide for several new and ongoing acquisition 
programs that use acquisition authorities and contracting 
strategies provided in National Defense Authorization Acts for 
rapid development, rapid prototyping, rapid acquisition, 
accelerated acquisition, and mid-tier acquisition (``section 
804'') of warfighter capabilities. The spectrum of programs 
using these types of acquisition authorities ranges from small 
programs that have already deployed prototypes, to programs 
that by virtue of their scope and cost would otherwise be 
subject to reporting requirements and acquisition regulations 
applicable to traditional major acquisition category I 
programs.
    While supportive of efforts to deliver capability to the 
warfighter in an accelerated manner, it is noted that under 
current law, several reporting requirements that apply to 
traditional acquisition programs, to include independent cost 
estimates and test and evaluation master plans, are not 
required for mid-tier acquisition and rapid prototyping 
programs and to date have been provided only when specifically 
directed by the House and Senate Appropriations Committees. As 
the Department of Defense appears to increase its reliance on 
such acquisition authorities, it is concerning that this 
standard acquisition information is not being provided as a 
matter of practice. Further, it is concerning that the 
Services' growing trend toward procuring de facto operational 
assets via prototyping acquisitions may limit the Services' 
ability to successfully manage their acquisition programs in 
the long-term by eliminating the full understanding of long-
term program costs up-front; unnecessarily narrowing down the 
industrial base early in the acquisition process; and 
eliminating opportunities for future innovation by reducing 
competitive opportunities over the life of the acquisition. 
Finally, there is concern that budgeting for these de facto 
end-items incrementally with research and development 
appropriations instead of fully funding them with procurement 
appropriations obfuscates costs, and limits transparency and 
visibility into Services' procurement efforts.
    The Under Secretaries of Defense (Research and Engineering) 
and (Acquisition and Sustainment), as well as the Service 
acquisition executives are directed to provide to the 
congressional defense committees, with submission of the fiscal 
year 2022 President's budget request, a complete list of 
approved acquisition programs--and programs pending approval in 
fiscal year 2022--utilizing prototyping or accelerated 
acquisition authorities, along with the rationale for each 
selected acquisition strategy, as well as a cost estimate and 
contracting strategy for each such program. Further, the Under 
Secretary of Defense (Comptroller) and the respective Financial 
Manager and Comptrollers for the Army, Navy, and Air Force are 
directed to certify full funding of the acquisition strategies 
for each of these programs in the fiscal year 2022 President's 
budget request, including their test strategies; and the 
Director, Operational Test and Evaluation is directed to 
certify to the congressional defense committees the 
appropriateness of the Services' planned test strategies for 
such programs, to include a risk assessment. To the extent that 
the respective Service acquisition executives, Service 
financial manager and comptrollers, and Director, Operational 
Test and Evaluation provided the information requested above 
with submission of the fiscal year 2021 President's budget, any 
variations thereto should be included with the fiscal year 2022 
submission. In addition, the Services' financial manager and 
comptrollers are directed to identify the full costs for 
prototyping units by individual item in the budget exhibits for 
research, development, test and evaluation appropriations for 
the budget year as well as the future years defense program.

           FEDERALLY FUNDED RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT CENTERS

     Section 8025(e) of the Department of Defense 
Appropriations Act, 2020 directed the Secretary of Defense to 
submit, with the submission of the fiscal year 2021 budget 
request, a report presenting the specific amounts of staff 
years of technical effort to be allocated for each Defense 
Federally Funded Research and Development Center (FFRDC) during 
that fiscal year, and the associated budget estimates. It is 
noted that this annually recurring reporting requirement 
assists the House and Senate Appropriations Committees in their 
budget review for Defense FFRDCs and that timely and complete 
submittal is expected. It is further noted that in fiscal year 
2020, the Under Secretary of Defense (Research & Engineering) 
adjusted the allocation of staff-years of technical effort 
(STE) contrary to congressional intent expressed in section 
8025. Therefore, section 8026 of this agreement further 
specifies the allocation of STE for studies and analyses FFRDCs 
for fiscal year 2021.
    The Under Secretary of Defense (Research and Engineering) 
is directed to submit a report to the congressional defense 
committees, not later than 180 days after the enactment of this 
Act, describing the methodology and criteria used to assess 
each Defense FFRDC funded by this Act, the definition of their 
respective core competencies, and what, if any, adjustments are 
recommended for fiscal years 2022 and 2023. In addition, the 
Under Secretary of Defense (Research and Engineering) is 
directed to inform the congressional defense committees of any 
potentially required changes to Department of Defense 
Instruction 5000.77 not less than 45 days prior to the 
implementation of any such change.
    In addition, the agreement directs the Comptroller General 
to provide to the congressional defense committees, not later 
than 180 days after the enactment of this Act, a report that 
includes a detailed listing of all FFRDCs funded by this Act; 
the name of the primary sponsoring organization for each FFRDC; 
the period of performance (including contract options) for each 
FFRDC contract, to include contract scope, contract ceiling, 
amount of STE allocated, and, if not competed, justification 
for sole source contract actions.

            RESEARCH, DEVELOPMENT, TEST AND EVALUATION, ARMY

    The agreement provides $13,969,032,000 for Research, 
Development, Test and Evaluation, Army, as follows:

[GRAPHIC(S) NOT AVAILABLE IN TIFF FORMAT]


                    COUNTER-UNMANNED AERIAL SYSTEMS

    The agreement notes that the Department of the Army has 
been designated as the executive agent for the Joint Counter-
Unmanned Aerial Systems (C-UAS) office, assuming responsibility 
for the development of enduring joint solutions to address the 
C-UAS threat. The agreement directs the Secretary of the Army 
to provide a report to the congressional defense committees, 
not later than 120 days after the enactment of this Act, that 
details the Army's management plan and assessment of C-UAS 
requirements. This report shall include, but is not limited to, 
a list of validated requirements; a detailed list of related 
acquisition programs across the Department of Defense; 
resourcing requirements; research and development priorities; 
an assessment of the need for a C-UAS center of excellence; and 
the organization, structure, and responsibilities of the Joint 
C-UAS office.

            HIGH PERFORMANCE COMPUTING MODERNIZATION PROGRAM

    The agreement notes that responsibility for the High 
Performance Computing Modernization Program (HPCMP) was 
transferred to the Army in fiscal year 2012 with a requested 
funding level of $183,150,000. Almost a decade later, the 
fiscal year 2021 President's budget request includes only 
$188,024,000 for HPCMP. This level of investment is 
significantly less than if annual inflationary adjustments were 
applied to the program, even without program growth.
    Originally focused on support to science and technology 
efforts, HPCMP now supports an expansive and ever-growing set 
of competencies, including digital engineering, virtual 
prototyping, and virtual testing. Therefore, the agreement 
directs the Secretary of Defense, in consultation with the 
Secretary of the Army, to perform a full review of the HPCMP 
program that includes, but is not limited to, an historical 
assessment of the HPCMP mission and requirements; an analysis 
of historical investment levels compared to the full 
requirement; a determination of the adequacy of historical 
investment; the suitability of the current organizational 
structure within the Department; and a modernization strategy. 
The Secretary of Defense is directed to submit the findings in 
a report to the congressional defense committees not later than 
120 days after the enactment of this Act.

                      SOLDIER ENHANCEMENT PROGRAM

    The fiscal year 2021 President's budget request eliminates 
the Soldier Enhancement Program. Since its establishment by 
Congress in 1990, the program has served a unique and critical 
function in enabling the accelerated evaluation and procurement 
of off-the-shelf items that have the potential to substantially 
improve weapons and support equipment focused on critical 
warfighting functional areas of fires mission command, movement 
and maneuver, sustainability, and protection. The Soldier 
Enhancement Program is a low risk, low cost, high payoff 
investment that has demonstrated consistent success in close 
collaboration with industry to address mission-critical and 
training-critical soldier needs in a timely and cost-effective 
manner. Additionally, there have not been obvious changes in 
operational or threat environments that would obviate the 
ongoing need for this successful and critical capability. 
Therefore, the agreement directs the Secretary of the Army to 
preserve the Soldier Enhancement Program within the Program 
Executive Office Soldier and expects the Secretary of the Army 
to ensure that the program is fully funded in the fiscal year 
2022 budget request.

                    EMERGING TECHNOLOGY INITIATIVES

    The agreement supports the Army's Advanced Concepts 
program, managed by the Rapid Capabilities and Critical 
Technologies Office, in its pursuit of experimental prototyping 
and demonstration of selected technology through non-
traditional engagements with industry by employing what it 
calls ``innovation days.'' These types of direct engagements 
with industry are critical in identifying promising 
technologies and solutions to capability gaps that would 
otherwise fall outside of traditional acquisition programs. The 
ability to be agile with resourcing these smaller prototyping 
efforts is crucial to the success of the program and does not 
lend itself to traditional itemized accounting in budget 
exhibits, as individual programs may be undefined at the time 
of the annual President's budget submission. Therefore, the 
agreement recommends $23,000,000, as requested in the budget 
submission, for the Army's Advanced Concepts program. Further, 
beginning with the second quarter of fiscal year 2021, the 
agreement directs the Director, Hypersonics, Directed Energy, 
Space and Rapid Acquisition to provide quarterly execution 
updates to the House and Senate Appropriations Committees not 
later than 30 days after the end of each fiscal quarter. This 
report shall include, but is not limited to, a schedule of 
innovation days for the current fiscal year, a list of active 
projects selected for funding, a narrative description of each 
project, obligation and expenditure data for each project, and 
metrics to determine success of selected projects.

                     ALTERNATIVE NAVIGATION SYSTEMS

    The agreement notes that operational requirements for 
assured position, navigation, and timing alternative navigation 
(ALT NAV) systems are increasing rapidly as the Army looks to 
compete in a Global Positioning System denied or challenged 
environment. These requirements are at risk of outpacing 
Service investments in the area. The Secretary of the Army is 
encouraged to ensure that sufficient resources are in place 
through the budget process and in execution of current year 
resources, to develop and field ALT NAV capabilities and the 
necessary broadcast service to enable such capabilities.

            RESEARCH, DEVELOPMENT, TEST AND EVALUATION, NAVY

    The agreement provides $20,078,829,000 for Research, 
Development, Test and Evaluation, Navy, as follows:

[GRAPHIC(S) NOT AVAILABLE IN TIFF FORMAT]

               SMALL BUSINESS INNOVATION RESEARCH PROGRAM

    The Small Business Innovation Research Program (SBIR) is 
designed to attract small technology companies to participate 
in federally sponsored research and development in order to 
enable advances in innovative technology disruption. It is 
noted that despite significant investment and acquisition 
preference for SBIR companies, there are few signs of creative 
disruptions, and it is further noted that the failure of the 
Department of Defense to capitalize on SBIR investments and 
incorporate disruptive innovation is demonstrated by the 
repeated failure of the Navy to sufficiently resource the 
Automated Test and Retest (ATRT) program, which has produced 
transformative technology, including the ATRT/AEGIS Virtual 
Twin. The agreement includes a total of $34,797,000 for the 
ATRT program. Additionally, the Secretary of the Navy is 
directed to adhere to SBIR law and use SBIR awardees to the 
greatest extent practicable thus allowing and assisting SBIR 
awardees to commercialize technologies related to those 
developed under SBIR Phase I, II, and III awards.

  OFFICE OF NAVAL RESEARCH BUDGET STRUCTURE AND BUDGET JUSTIFICATION 
                               MATERIALS

    Previously stated direction contained in Senate Report 116-
103 regarding the program element structure for Navy science 
and technology projects is reiterated in this agreement. 
Further, it is noted that acquisition-type prototyping efforts 
managed by the Office of Naval Research (ONR) require 
additional oversight, fiscal clarity, and adherence to 
financial management practices in order to avoid the schedule 
and cost growth seen, for instance, in the Solid State Laser-
Technology Maturation program. Finally, concerns remain with 
the lack of timely transmission, as well as the format, of 
classified project and budget details for ONR efforts. The 
Assistant Secretary of the Navy (Financial Management and 
Comptroller) and the Chief, Naval Research, are directed, not 
later than 30 days after the enactment of this Act, to present 
a plan to the congressional defense committees to ensure that 
ONR's classified project-specific information, required by the 
congressional defense committees for their budget review, be 
provided concurrent with submission of the President's budget 
in the appropriate format.

                 MARINE CORPS FORCE DESIGN INITIATIVES

    Shortly after submission of the fiscal year 2021 
President's budget request, the Commandant of the Marine Corps 
released ``Force Design 2030,'' followed by the submission to 
Congress of an above threshold reprogramming request to 
accelerate certain technology development efforts in support of 
Force Design efforts. This reprogramming request was approved 
by all four congressional defense committees, and additional 
appropriations are recommended in fiscal year 2021 to continue 
this acceleration. It is expected that these programs will be 
fully funded in the fiscal year 2022 President's budget 
request.
    Further, the fiscal year 2021 President's budget request 
includes several acquisition programs that support the 
Commandant's Force Design, including the Ground-Based Anti-Ship 
Missile, Long Range Fires, Organic Precision Fires, and the 
Long-Range Unmanned Surface Vessel programs. There is concern 
that the Marine Corps is overly dependent on prototyping and 
mid-tier acquisition fielding authorities for developing these 
programs. Therefore, the Assistant Secretary of the Navy 
(Research, Development and Acquisition) is directed to review 
the Marine Corps' acquisition strategies for these and other 
programs related to Force Design, and to certify their 
appropriate use to the congressional defense committees not 
later than with the submission of the fiscal year 2022 
President's budget request.

                     FUTURE SURFACE COMBATANT FORCE

    The fiscal year 2021 President's budget request includes 
$46,453,000 in program element 0603564N for requirements 
development, prototyping, and preliminary contract design of a 
new Large Surface Combatant (LSC) class to succeed the current 
DDG-51 Flight III destroyer. Additionally, $19,020,000 is 
included in program element 0603563N for requirements and 
concept analysis of an LSC. Despite repeated delays to the LSC 
program, the Navy has reduced the acquisition profile for DDG-
51 Flight III destroyers in recent budget submissions, and has 
not delineated a clear acquisition path for large surface 
combatants following the conclusion of the current DDG-51 
Flight III destroyer multi-year procurement contract in fiscal 
year 2022. Absent a clear understanding of future Navy LSC 
force structure requirements and acquisition strategies, the 
proposed increase in funding for LSC, to include $17,100,000 in 
preliminary design efforts, is not supported.
    Further, it is noted that information provided by the Navy 
in response to Senate Report 116-103 regarding the Navy's 
Surface Capability Evolution Plan (SCEP) was incomplete. The 
Assistant Secretary of the Navy (Research, Development and 
Acquisition) is directed to provide to the congressional 
defense committees, with the fiscal year 2022 President's 
budget request, the updated acquisition strategies for each 
element of the Navy's SCEP, as previously requested, and the 
Assistant Secretary of the Navy (Financial Management and 
Comptroller) is directed to provide, with the fiscal year 2022 
President's budget request, updated cost estimates for each 
element of the SCEP, and to certify full funding in the budget 
request for each respective acquisition strategy of the SCEP 
elements.

                    AEGIS BASELINES BUDGET ESTIMATES

    As previously expressed in Senate Report 116-103, concerns 
remain with the lack of stability in scope and costs of AEGIS 
baselines from one budget submission to the next and the lack 
of associated details in budget justification materials. The 
Department of the Navy Program Executive Officer, Integrated 
Warfare Systems, and the Missile Defense Agency Program 
Executive, Sea-Based Weapons Systems, are directed to provide 
to the congressional defense committees, not later than 30 days 
after the enactment of this Act, a joint acquisition baseline 
for AEGIS development efforts.

           CH-53K SYSTEM DEMONSTRATION TEST ARTICLE AIRCRAFT

    The Assistant Secretary of the Navy (Research, Development 
and Acquisition) and the Assistant Secretary of the Navy 
(Financial Management and Comptroller) are directed to continue 
to comply with the direction contained in Senate Report 116-103 
regarding System Demonstration Test Article aircraft for the 
CH-53K program.

               NAVAL EXPEDITIONARY SUSTAINMENT AND REPAIR

    The agreement recognizes the value of aligning technology-
based solutions with expeditionary shipboard sustainment and 
repair concepts of operations to improve warship resiliency, 
lethality, and availability. The Secretary of the Navy is urged 
to continue investment in these areas.

         RESEARCH, DEVELOPMENT, TEST AND EVALUATION, AIR FORCE

    The agreement provides $36,357,443,000 for Research, 
Development, Test and Evaluation, Air Force, as follows:

[GRAPHIC(S) NOT AVAILABLE IN TIFF FORMAT]

          LOW-COST ATTRITABLE AIRCRAFT TECHNOLOGY AND SKYBORG

    The agreement includes an additional $50,000,000 above the 
fiscal year 2021 request to conduct prototyping necessary to 
transition the Low-Cost Attritable Aircraft Technology (LCAAT) 
demonstrator aircraft system into a fully operational 
capability, along with other associated LCAAT and Skyborg 
efforts. The Secretary of the Air Force is directed to submit 
to the congressional defense committees, not later than 90 days 
after the enactment of this Act, a spend plan for this 
additional funding as well as funding for LCAAT and Skyborg 
efforts in the underlying fiscal year 2021 budget request. This 
language replaces the language under the heading ``Skyborg and 
Low-Cost Attritable Aircraft Technology'' in House Report 116-
453.

                     PROGRAM ELEMENT CONSOLIDATION

    The agreement rejects the Air Force proposal to consolidate 
multiple program elements into a few larger program elements 
that would provide unprecedented programmatic and fiscal 
flexibility and recommends retaining the existing program 
element budget structure. The agreement supports the creation 
of the Future Air Force Integrated Technology Demonstration 
program element as it provides clarity and transparency for the 
Air Force Vanguard programs. The Assistant Secretary of the Air 
Force (Financial Management and Comptroller) is directed to 
follow this budget structure in future budget submissions until 
changes are agreed to by the House and Senate Appropriations 
Committees.

                         ACQUISITION WORKFORCE

    The Secretary of the Air Force is directed to include, with 
the submission of the fiscal year 2022 President's budget 
request, the following data for each Research, Development, 
Test and Evaluation, Air Force line item that contains civilian 
pay: the number of civilian full time equivalents, total 
compensation and benefits, and average salary. For each type of 
data, the Secretary of the Air Force is also directed to 
include the actual amounts for the previous fiscal year, the 
enacted amounts for the current fiscal year, and the requested 
amount in the fiscal year 2022 President's budget request.

                   ADVANCED BATTLE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM

     The agreement includes $158,782,000 for Advanced Battle 
Management System (ABMS) to allow for continued program 
progress. The Assistant Secretary of the Air Force 
(Acquisition, Technology and Logistics) is directed to provide, 
with the fiscal year 2022 President's budget request, the ABMS 
acquisition strategy; in addition, the Assistant Secretary of 
the Air Force (Financial Management and Comptroller) is 
directed to certify that the fiscal year 2022 President's 
budget fully funds this acquisition strategy.
    Further, with the submission of the fiscal year 2022 budget 
request, the Secretary of the Air Force is directed to submit a 
report summarizing all related programs in communications, 
battle management command and control, and sensors that fall 
within the ABMS umbrella across the future years defense 
program. The report should reference program element funding 
lines and clearly link all activities with funding lines in the 
fiscal year 2022 budget justification documents. It should also 
clearly articulate all phase one efforts, including initial 
operational capability timelines, the status of related legacy 
activities, and linkages to classified activities. This report 
may be submitted with a classified annex if necessary.

                    GROUND BASED STRATEGIC DETERRENT

    As part of its fiscal year 2021 President's budget request, 
the Air Force provided a legislative proposal to carry out 
construction activities associated with the recapitalization of 
the Nation's ground based nuclear missile systems. The 
legislative proposal for the Ground Based Strategic Deterrent 
program, as envisioned, would allow for the use of research, 
development, test and evaluation funding for planning and 
design activities and would utilize procurement funding in lieu 
of military construction funding to replace both the existing 
launch control and launch facilities.
    While there could be schedule risks in using a traditional 
military construction approach, the legislative proposal is not 
the only option. The agreement supports efforts to group 
projects whether by installation, air wing, or other grouping 
and expects the Air Force to designate a way forward for ease 
of management and execution. The agreement also supports 
efforts to utilize an approach where the single prime vendor 
may be designated to execute military construction projects in 
coordination with the Army Corps of Engineers. Due to the scale 
of this endeavor and the importance of maintaining nuclear 
deterrence, the Secretary of the Air Force is directed to 
designate a senior leader to plan, coordinate, and execute the 
military construction, research, development, test and 
evaluation, and procurement functions with the ability to 
impact each appropriation as required. Finally, the Secretary 
of the Air Force is directed to submit to the House and Senate 
Appropriations Committees, not later than 180 days after the 
enactment of this Act, a detailed report outlining the

while maintaining the required readiness posture.

    USE OF RESEARCH, DEVELOPMENT, TEST AND EVALUATION APPROPRIATIONS

    The fiscal year 2021 President's budget request includes 
$15,000,000 in Research, Development, Test and Evaluation, Air 
Force funding to be used as planning and design for 
construction associated with the Ground Based Strategic 
Deterrent program. The agreement does not support this use of 
research and development funds, nor the associated legislative 
proposals, and reduces the budget request accordingly. Further, 
the agreement directs that none of the funds appropriated in 
this Act for research, development, test and evaluation may be 
used for military construction activities, unless expressly 
allowed in this Act.

        RESEARCH, DEVELOPMENT, TEST AND EVALUATION, SPACE FORCE

    The agreement provides $10,540,069,000 for Research,

                        EVOLVED STRATEGIC SATCOM

    The agreement notes concerns about changes to the Evolved 
Strategic SATCOM (ESS) acquisition plan and directs the 
Secretary of the Air Force to provide to the congressional 
defense committees, not later than 120 days after the enactment 
of this Act, an assessment of the potential for a strategic 
communications gap beginning in 2030. The assessment shall 
include a detailed explanation of the ESS acquisition plan, 
functional availability analysis, consideration of the 
potential strategic communication needs of other programs such 
as Next Generation Overhead Persistent Infrared, new ESS 
program cost estimates, and if necessary, gap mitigation 
strategies.

        RESEARCH, DEVELOPMENT, TEST AND EVALUATION, DEFENSE-WIDE

    The agreement provides $25,932,671,000 for Research, 
Development, Test and Evaluation, Defense-Wide, as follows:

[GRAPHIC(S) NOT AVAILABLE IN TIFF FORMAT]

                      MOBILE MICROREACTOR STRATEGY

    The agreement supports efforts by the Department of Defense 
to explore new methods of power production for use in 
operational needs, future weapon systems, force protection, 
asset protection, and humanitarian and disaster response. The 
recommendation provides $70,000,000 to support the development 
of a prototype mobile microreactor and $10,000,000 to support 
the production of fuel for the prototype.
    The agreement notes, however, that the Department has not 
established an executive agent to direct the microreactor 
program and has not secured fuel stocks. Therefore, the Under 
Secretary of Defense (Research and Engineering) is directed to 
submit a report to the congressional defense committees not 
later than 30 days after the enactment of this Act, on the 
Department's plans for the mobile microreactor program. The 
report shall address whether the Department has identified an 
executive agent for mobile energy; plans to include mobile 
energy solutions, such as microreactors, in force modernization 
initiatives; the strategy for deploying microreactors, 
including site identification processes, fielding, personnel 
training, and deployment timelines; the procurement strategy to 
acquire feed material for microreactors; the plan to identify 
and use existing authorities to provide appropriate 
indemnities; and the status of pilot programs for 
microreactors, including suitable locations for pilot 
activities.

                  ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE COORDINATION

    The agreement supports the artificial intelligence 
activities of the Department of Defense which are intended to 
improve the affordability and effectiveness of military 
operations. The agreement is concerned, however, about a lack 
of coordination among the myriad of artificial intelligence 
programs within the Department and the military Services. 
Therefore, the Director of the Joint Artificial Intelligence 
Center is directed to provide the congressional defense 
committees, not later than 120 days after the enactment of this 
Act, an inventory of all artificial intelligence activities to 
include each program's appropriation, project, and line number; 
the current and future years defense program funding; the 
identification of academic or industry mission partners, if 
applicable; and any planned transition partners.

             ARSENAL SUPPLY CHAIN SECURITY PROOF OF CONCEPT

    The agreement provides $3,500,000 and directs the Under 
Secretary of Defense (Research and Engineering) to utilize 
these funds to provide cybersecurity resources and to address 
cybersecurity challenges and digital modernization efforts at 
Army arsenals through partnerships with digital manufacturing 
institute efforts. This language replaces the language under 
the heading ``Arsenal Security'' in House Report 116-453.

  DEFENSE ADVANCED RESEARCH PROJECTS AGENCY SMALL BUSINESS SET ASIDE 
                              APPLICATION

    The agreement notes challenges posed to the effective 
analysis of the budget of the Defense Advanced Research 
Projects Agency (DARPA) due to practices within the agency of 
balancing the Small Business Innovation Research set asides 
across the DARPA portfolio based on program execution rather 
than proportionally from each program element. Such practices 
are not permitted. The agreement reminds the Director of DARPA, 
and all defense agencies, that section 8052 of this Act 
requires that ``the Small Business Innovation Research program 
and the Small Business Technology Transfer program set asides 
shall be taken proportionally from all programs, projects, or 
activities to the extent they contribute to the extramural 
budget.'' Proportional application of the set aside aids 
congressional budget oversight by ensuring accurate visibility 
into under executing programs and program element requirements. 
The agreement expects these requirements to be followed by all 
elements of the Department of Defense.

                OPERATIONAL TEST AND EVALUATION, DEFENSE

            ASSEMBLED CHEMICAL WEAPONS ALTERNATIVES PROGRAM

    The Program Executive Office (PEO) Assembled Chemical 
Weapons Alternatives (ACWA) is responsible for the safe and 
environmentally compliant destruction of the remaining United 
States chemical weapons stockpile stored at the United States 
Army Pueblo Chemical Depot in Colorado and the Blue Grass Army 
Depot in Kentucky. The deadline for completion of destruction 
operations, as established in 50 U.S.C. 1521(b), is not later 
than December 31, 2023.
    Approximately $9,620,000,000 for the ACWA program has been 
appropriated through fiscal year 2020. The fiscal year 2021 
President's budget request includes an additional $775,700,000 
for the program. According to the program brief accompanying 
the budget submission, program funds are for continued 
destruction operations at the Pueblo facility. At the Blue 
Grass facility, the funds are for continued destruction 
operations of sarin, mustard, and some nerve agents, and for 
the beginning of operations to destroy nerve rocket warheads.
    In an August update to the congressional defense 
committees, the program office reported being on track with 
program activities and on schedule to meet the 2023 deadline 
for destruction operations. It is therefore perplexing that in 
November, already two months into fiscal year 2021, the 
Department of Defense notified Congress of a $160,300,000 
shortfall in the budget request. The Department has indicated 
that if additional funding is not provided, the program will 
breach the congressionally mandated deadline for destruction 
operations by four years at Blue Grass Army Depot while 
purportedly maintaining the deadline at the Army Pueblo 
Chemical Depot.
    The ACWA program has already experienced a significant 
Nunn-McCurdy unit cost breach in 2017 and has been cited by the 
Department of Defense Inspector General as having schedule 
delays and cost overruns due to a lack of contract oversight. 
In 2017, the program office came to the congressional defense 
committees for additional unanticipated funding of 
$127,000,000. It is unsatisfactory that the program office 
entrusted with a must-succeed mission has been allowed to be 
routinely mismanaged and has used Congress as its backstop 
against failure.
    The agreement concludes that the program lacks the proper 
accounting mechanisms and programmatic rigor to effectively 
assess their status and forecast their resource needs. As such, 
the PEO ACWA is directed to begin providing quarterly updates 
to the congressional defense committees not later than one 
quarter after the enactment of this Act. These updates must 
include itemized spend plans that show any procurement of 
systems or components and labor costs broken out by main plant 
operation; static detonation chamber, broken out by operations 
and manufacturing/testing; non-systems contractors; and rocket 
processing changes, broken out by: 1) rocket containers and 
skids; 2) non-destructive equipment/vertical rocket cutting 
machine; 3) rocket containerization system; 4) SDC 2000 
equipment, installation, and training; 5) SDC 1200 equipment, 
installation, and training; and 6) system contractor labor and 
materials, if applicable. The updates must also include an 
assessment of the status of progress on all major projects and 
detail all program risks and the steps the program is taking to 
mitigate risks. Each update must make note of any programmatic 
or budgetary changes since the previous update. Finally, each 
update must provide schedule projections for meeting the 
December 31, 2023 deadline.
    Additionally, the PEO ACWA is directed to work with the 
congressional defense committees to determine what, if any, 
changes should be made to budget materials to provide more 
transparency into the cost drivers of the program and to the 
budgetary changes required to support the program goals.

and Conservation Act (42 U.S.C. 6241), upon a determination by 
the President in this fiscal year that a regional supply 
shortage of refined petroleum product of significant scope and 
duration exists, that a severe increase in the price of refined 
petroleum product will likely result from such shortage, and 
that a draw down and sale of refined petroleum product would 
assist directly and significantly in reducing the adverse 
impact of such shortage, the Secretary of Energy may draw down 
and sell refined petroleum product from the Strategic Petroleum 
Reserve. Proceeds from a sale under this section shall be 
deposited into the SPR Petroleum Account established in section 
167 of the Energy Policy and Conservation Act (42 U.S.C. 6247),

the same weight as the language included in this explanatory 
statement and should be complied with unless specifically 
addressed to the contrary in this explanatory statement. While 
some language is repeated for emphasis, it is not intended to 
negate the language referred to above unless expressly provided 
herein. Additionally, where this explanatory statement states 
that the ``agreement only includes'' or ``the following is the 
only'' direction, any direction included in the House report on 
that matter shall be considered as replaced with the direction 
provided within this explanatory statement. In cases where the 
House has directed the submission of a report, such report is 
to be submitted to the Committees on Appropriations of both 
Houses of Congress. House reporting requirements with deadlines 
prior to or within 15 days of the enactment of this Act shall 
be submitted not later than 60 days after enactment of this 
Act. All other reporting deadlines not changed by this 
explanatory statement are to be met.
    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.
    In fiscal year 2021, for purposes of the Balanced Budget 
and Emergency Deficit Control Act of 1985 (Public Law 99-177), 
the following information provides the definition of the term 
``program, project, or activity'' for departments and agencies 
under the jurisdiction of the Energy and Water Development and 
Related Agencies Appropriations Act. The term ``program, 
project, or activity'' shall include the most specific level of 
budget items identified in the Energy and Water Development and 
Related Agencies Appropriations Act, 2021 and the explanatory 
statement accompanying this Act.
    The agreement reiterates House direction regarding the 
Salton Sea, California.
    Federal Law Enforcement.--The agreement notes that the 
explanatory statement accompanying the Commerce, Justice, 
Science, and Related Agencies Appropriations Act, 2021 directs 
the Attorney General to ensure implementation of evidence-based 
training programs on de-escalation and the use-of-force, as 
well as on police-community relations, that are broadly 
applicable and scalable to all federal law enforcement 
agencies. The agreement further notes that several agencies 
funded by this Act employ federal law enforcement officers and 
are Federal Law Enforcement Training Centers partner 
organizations. The agreement directs such agencies to consult 
with the Attorney General regarding the implementation of these 
programs for their law enforcement officers. The agreement 
further directs such agencies to brief the Committees on 
Appropriations of both Houses of Congress on their efforts 
relating to such implementation not later than 90 days after 
consultation with the Attorney General. In addition, the 
agreement directs such agencies, to the extent they are not 
already participating, to consult with the Attorney General and 
the Director of the FBI regarding participation in the National 
Use-of-Force Data Collection. The agreement further directs 
such agencies to brief the Committees on Appropriations of both 
Houses of Congress not later than 90 days after enactment of 
this Act on their current efforts to so participate.
    No specific funds for rejecting any application for a grant 
available under funds appropriated by this Act because of the 
use of the term ``global warming'', the term ``climate 
change'', or the term ``sea level rise'' in the application are 
included for any agency funded in this Act.

                   TITLE I--CORPS OF ENGINEERS--CIVIL


                         DEPARTMENT OF THE ARMY


                       Corps of Engineers--Civil

    The summary tables included in this title set forth the 
dispositions with respect to the individual appropriations, 
projects, and activities of the Corps of Engineers (Corps). 
Additional items of this Act are discussed below.
    Advanced Funds Agreements.--Under the advanced funds 
authority, the Corps is authorized to accept, from a state or 
political subdivision thereof, all funds covering both the 
federal and non-federal share of total project costs required 
to construct an authorized water resources development project 
or separable element thereof. Based on the non-federal 
sponsor's commitment to provide all funds required to construct 
a project, or separable element thereof, the Corps may 
undertake construction of the project prior to a new start 
determination related to federal funding for the project. In 
light of a non-federal sponsor's commitment to provide all 
funding required for construction of the project, or separable 
element thereof, the agreement directs that federal funds 
should not be provided for such construction. Instead, for such 
projects, any federal funding may be provided only after 
completion of construction, as repayment of the federal share 
of such construction, from funding provided for reimbursements 
or repayments, and would be subject to a new start designation. 
This direction is not intended to apply to any project with an 
advanced funds project partnership agreement that is currently 
under construction.
    Asian Carp.--The Corps is currently engaged in a 
multipronged effort to stop Asian carp from reaching the Great 
Lakes. The long-term solution involves the Great Lakes and 
Mississippi River Interbasin Study [GLMRIS], which was 
authorized by Congress under Section 3061(d) of the Water 
Resources Development Act of 2007 (Public Law 110-114). Until 
that project is operational, a near-term solution is needed to 
bring the Chicago Sanitary Ship Canal (CSSC) Fish Barrier 
online to its full designed capacity. Per the GLMRIS, the 
Brandon Road Lock and Dam in Joliet, Illinois, is critical to 
keeping Asian carp out of the Chicago Area Waterways System, 
which is the only continuous connection between the Great Lakes 
and Mississippi River basins. These efforts are essential to 
protecting the Great Lakes ecosystem and the $7,000,000,000 
recreational fishing and $16,000,000,000 boating industries.
    Last year, the Corps sent Congress an approved Chief's 
Report, which included a positive recommendation for a plan to 
build a comprehensive suite of measures to counter Asian carp 
at the Brandon Road Lock and Dam, a critical choke point to 
halt the spread of invasive species in the Illinois River. In 
addition, the existing electric dispersal barrier in the CSSC 
is presently the only structural measure to deter Asian carp 
from reaching Lake Michigan.
    As the Corps prioritizes projects, it shall consider 
critical projects to prevent the spread of invasive species. 
The Corps is reminded that the GLMRIS Brandon Road project is 
eligible to compete for additional funding within the 
Investigations account for Pre-construction Engineering and 
Design (PED). The agreement notes that the Corps is finalizing 
an agreement with the State of Illinois to be the lead non-
federal sponsor of the project and that the states of Illinois 
and Michigan have provided funding to allow PED to move 
forward. The Corps shall expeditiously work with the non-
federal sponsor to execute a design agreement.
    The agreement also notes that the Corps has invested 
significant resources in building and maintaining a permanent 
electric barrier on the Chicago waterway system, the CSSC Fish 
Barrier. There is concern that the administration has not 
allocated funds to enable the Corps and the U.S. Coast Guard to 
complete safety assessments necessary to ensure that upgrades 
to the electric barrier are operational. The Corps is reminded 
that this project may compete for additional funding needed to 
complete the second electrode array, which would improve the 
effectiveness of the barrier system and provide operational 
redundancy. A complete CSSC Fish Barrier will ensure that the 
barrier can operate at its designed capacity.
    The Corps and other federal and state agencies are 
conducting ongoing research on additional potential Asian carp 
solutions. The Corps shall continue to collaborate at levels 
commensurate with previous years with the U.S. Coast Guard, the 
U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, the State of Illinois, and 
members of the Asian Carp Regional Coordinating Committee, 
including identifying navigation protocols that would be 
beneficial or effective in reducing the risk of vessels 
inadvertently carrying aquatic invasive species, including 
Asian carp, through the Brandon Road Lock and Dam in Joliet, 
Illinois. The Corps is further directed to implement navigation 
protocols shown to be effective at reducing the risk of 
entrainment without jeopardizing the safety of vessels and 
crews.
    The Corps is directed to provide to the Committees on 
Appropriations of both Houses of Congress starting not later 
than 30 days after enactment of this Act quarterly updates on 
the progress and status of efforts to prevent the further 
spread of Asian carp, including the status of completing the 
upgrades to and testing of the CSSC Fish Barrier; of the design 
agreement; of implementing the Brandon Road Recommended Plan; 
the location and density of carp populations; the use of 
emergency procedures previously authorized by the Congress; and 
the development, consideration, and implementation of new 
technological and structural countermeasures, including 
beneficial navigational protocols.
    Budget Structure Changes.--The fiscal year 2021 budget 
request for the Corps proposed numerous structural changes, 
including the creation of two new accounts (Harbor Maintenance 
Trust Fund and Inland Waterways Trust Fund); the shifting of 
various studies and projects between accounts and business 
lines; and the consolidation of certain remaining items. The 
agreement rejects all such proposed changes and instead funds 
all activities in the accounts in which funding has 
traditionally been provided. Unless expressly noted, all 
projects and studies remain at the levels proposed in the 
budget request but may be funded in different accounts. In 
particular:
     Projects proposed for funding in the Harbor 
Maintenance Trust Fund account in the budget request are funded 
in the Construction, Mississippi River and Tributaries, and 
Operation and Maintenance accounts, as appropriate;
     Dam safety modification studies, proposed in the 
Investigations account in the budget request, are funded in the 
Dam Safety and Seepage/Stability Correction Program within the 
Construction account;
     Sand mitigation projects, proposed in the Harbor 
Maintenance Trust Fund account in the budget request, are 
funded in the Construction account;
     National Shoreline Management Study and 
Interagency and International Support activities are not 
consolidated within the Coordination with Other Water Resource 
Agencies remaining item in Investigations;
     Disposition studies will continue to be funded 
under the remaining item Disposition of Completed Projects in 
the Investigations account;
     Tribal Partnership Projects will continue to be 
funded under the Tribal Partnership Program remaining item in 
the Construction account, and these amounts may be used to 
cover necessary administrative expenses prior to agreement 
execution;
     Access to Water Data, Coastal Field Data 
Collection, Hydrologic Studies, Remote Sensing/Geographic 
Information System Support, Scientific and Technical 
Information Centers, and Tri-Service CADD/GIS Technology Center 
are not consolidated under the new proposed Technology 
Application Program in Investigations;
     Inspection of Completed Works, Project Condition 
Surveys, Scheduling of Reservoir Operations and Surveillance of 
Northern Boundary Waters will continue to be funded under 
States instead of consolidated into a national program as 
requested in the Operation and Maintenance account;
     Inspection of Completed Works will continue to be 
funded under the individual States instead of consolidated into 
a national program as requested in the Mississippi River and 
Tributaries;
     Dam Safety and Seepage/Stability Correction 
Program management costs, proposed in the Expenses account in 
the budget request, are funded in the program within the 
Construction account.
    The Poplar Island, Maryland, beneficial use of dredged 
material project has been re-categorized as within the 
environmental restoration business line as is appropriate and 
as was the case in previous years.
    For any fiscal year, if the Corps proposes budget structure 
changes, the budget proposal shall be accompanied by a display 
of the funding request in the traditional budget structure.
    Columbia River Treaty.-- House direction regarding the 
Columbia River Treaty is not included.
    Inland Waterways System.--The only direction in the 
agreement is included in the Construction account.
    Regional Dredge Demonstration Program.--The Corps shall 
continue to provide to the Committees on Appropriations of both 
Houses of Congress quarterly briefings on the status of the 
demonstration program, including regular updates on the 
effectiveness of the program, savings realized, and lessons 
learned. The Corps is encouraged to apply effective approaches 
and lessons learned under this program to other areas such as 
the Atlantic region that could also achieve cost and schedule 
savings.
    Reporting Requirement.--The Corps shall provide to the 
Committees on Appropriations of both Houses of Congress a 
quarterly report that shall include the total budget authority 
and unobligated balances by year for each program, project, or 
activity, including any prior year appropriations. The 
Assistant Secretary of the Army (Civil Works) shall provide to 
the Committees on Appropriations of both Houses of Congress a 
quarterly report that includes the total budget authority and 
unobligated balances by year for each activity funded in the 
Office of the Assistant Secretary of the Army (Civil Works) 
account, including any prior year appropriations.
    Unmanned Aerial Systems.--As follow-up to the reporting 
requirement found in the fiscal year 2019 Senate Report, the 
Corps shall brief the Committees on Appropriations of both 
Houses of Congress about its findings and subsequent actions as 
it relates to foreign-made small Unmanned Aerial Systems 
(sUAS). The briefing shall occur not later than 90 days after 
enactment of this Act and shall include the following: the 
total number of sUAS in inventory and operation, including a 
breakdown of those sUAS manufactured in or with critical 
components produced in the People's Republic of China; and the 
plan to source additional sUAS from American manufacturers.

                           Additional Funding

    The agreement includes funding above the budget request to 
ensure continued improvements to our national economy, public 
safety, and environmental health that result from water 
resources projects. This funding is for additional work that 
either was not included in the budget request or was 
inadequately budgeted. The bill contains a provision requiring 
the Corps to allocate funds in accordance with only the 
direction in this agreement. In lieu of all House and Senate 
direction--under any heading--regarding additional funding, new 
starts, and the fiscal year 2021 work plan, the Corps shall 
follow the direction included in this explanatory statement.
    The executive branch retains complete discretion over 
project-specific allocation decisions within the additional 
funds provided, subject to only the direction here and under 
the heading ``Additional Funding'' or ``Additional Funding for 
Ongoing Work'' within each of the Investigations, Construction, 
Mississippi River and Tributaries, and Operation and 
Maintenance accounts. A study or project may not be excluded 
from evaluation for being ``inconsistent with administration 
policy.'' Voluntary funding in excess of legally-required cost 
shares for studies and projects is acceptable, but shall not be 
used as a criterion for allocating the additional funding 
provided or for the selection of new starts.
    The administration is reminded that these funds are in 
addition to the budget request, and administration budget 
metrics shall not be a reason to disqualify a study or project 
from being funded. It is expected that all of the additional 
funding provided will be allocated to specific programs, 
projects, or activities. The focus of the allocation process 
shall favor the obligation, rather than expenditure, of funds.
    The Corps shall evaluate all studies and projects only 
within accounts and categories consistent with previous 
congressional funding. When allocating the additional funding 
provided in this Act, the Corps shall consider eligibility and 
implementation decisions under Public Law 115-123 and Public 
Law 116-20 so as to maximize the reduction of risk to public 
safety and infrastructure and the reduction of future damages 
from floods and storms nationwide.
    A project or study shall be eligible for additional funding 
within the Investigations, Construction, and Mississippi River 
and Tributaries accounts if: (1) it has received funding, other 
than through a reprogramming, in at least one of the previous 
three fiscal years; (2) it was previously funded and could 
reach a significant milestone, complete a discrete element of 
work, or produce significant outputs in calendar year 2021; or 
(3) as appropriate, it is selected as one of the new starts 
allowed in accordance with this Act and the additional 
direction provided below. None of the additional funding in any 
account may be used for any item where funding was specifically 
denied or for projects in the Continuing Authorities Program. 
Funds shall be allocated consistent with statutory cost share 
requirements.
    Work Plan.--Not later than 60 days after enactment of this 
Act, the Corps shall provide to the Committees on 
Appropriations of both Houses of Congress a work plan including 
the following information: (1) a detailed description of the 
process and criteria used to evaluate studies and projects; (2) 
delineation of how these funds are to be allocated; (3) a 
summary of the work to be accomplished with each allocation, 
including phase of work and the study or project's remaining 
cost to complete (excluding Operation and Maintenance); and (4) 
a list of all studies and projects that were considered 
eligible for funding but did not receive funding, including an 
explanation of whether the study or project could have used 
funds in calendar year 2021 and the specific reasons each study 
or project was considered as being less competitive for an 
allocation of funds.
    New Starts.--The agreement includes nine new starts for 
investigations (including one new study start in the 
Mississippi River and Tributaries account) and seven new starts 
in the Construction and Mississippi River and Tributaries 
accounts to be distributed across the authorized mission areas 
of the Corps.
    Of the new starts in the Investigations account three shall 
be for flood and storm damage reductions studies, of which one 
shall be for a coastal storm damage reduction study; two shall 
be for navigation studies; two shall be for environmental 
restoration studies; and one shall be for a multi-purpose 
watershed study to assess coastal resiliency. Of the new 
construction starts, three shall be for navigation projects, 
one of which shall be for an inland waterways lock and dam 
modernization project, and one of which shall be for a small or 
medium-sized harbor; one shall be for an environmental 
restoration project; one shall be for an environmental 
restoration project or a multi-purpose project; one shall be 
for a flood and storm damage reduction project; and one shall 
be for a flood and storm damage reduction project or a multi-
purpose project. No funding shall be used to initiate new 
programs, projects, or activities in the Operation and 
Maintenance account. The Corps is reminded that public-private 
partnership (P3) pilot projects are eligible to compete for new 
starts in Construction. The Corps shall only allocate up to 
$500,000 for feasibility studies that are being funded in their 
first year.
    The Corps is directed to propose a single group of new 
starts as a part of the work plan. None of the funds may be 
used for any item for which the agreement has specifically 
denied funding. The Corps may not change or substitute the new 
starts selected once the work plan has been provided to the 
Committees on Appropriations of both Houses of Congress. Each 
new start shall be funded from the appropriate additional 
funding line item. Any project for which the new start 
requirements are not met by the end of calendar year 2021 shall 
be treated as if the project had not been selected as a new 
start; such a project shall be required to compete again for 
new start funding in future years. As all new starts are to be 
chosen by the Corps, all shall be considered of equal 
importance, and the expectation is that future budget 
submissions will include appropriate funding for all new starts 
selected.
    There continues to be confusion regarding the executive 
branch's policies and guidelines regarding which studies and 
projects require new start designations. Therefore, the Corps 
is directed to notify the Committees on Appropriations of both 
Houses of Congress at least seven days prior to execution of an 
agreement for construction of any project except environmental 
infrastructure projects and projects under the Continuing 
Authorities Program. Additionally, the agreement reiterates and 
clarifies previous congressional direction as follows. Neither 
study nor construction activities related to individual 
projects authorized under section 1037 of the Water Resources 
Reform and Development Act (WRRDA) of 2014shall require a new 
start or new investment decision; these activities shall be considered 
ongoing work. No new start or new investment decision shall be required 
when moving from feasibility to PED. The initiation of construction of 
an individually authorized project funded within a programmatic line 
item may not require a new start designation provided that some amount 
of construction funding under such programmatic line item was 
appropriated and expended during the previous fiscal year. No new start 
or new investment decision shall be required to initiate work on a 
separable element of a project when construction of one or more 
separable elements of that project was initiated previously; it shall 
be considered ongoing work. A new construction start shall not be 
required for work undertaken to correct a design deficiency on an 
existing federal project; it shall be considered ongoing work. The 
Corps is reminded that resumptions are just that--resumption of 
previously-initiated studies or projects and, as such, do not require 
new start designations.
    In addition to the priority factors used to allocate all 
additional funding provided in the Investigations account, the 
Corps should give careful consideration to the out-year budget 
impacts of the studies selected and to whether there appears to 
be an identifiable local sponsor that will be ready and able to 
provide, in a timely manner, the necessary cost share for the 
feasibility and PED phases. The Corps is reminded that the 
flood and storm damage reduction mission area can include 
instances where non-federal sponsors are seeking assistance 
with flood control and unauthorized discharges from permitted 
wastewater treatment facilities and that the navigation mission 
area includes work in remote and subsistence harbor areas. 
Within the flood and storm damage reduction mission, the Corps 
is urged to strive for an appropriate balance between inland 
and coastal projects.
    In addition to the priority factors used to allocate all 
additional funding provided in the Construction account, the 
Corps also shall consider the out-year budget impacts of the 
selected new starts, the cost sharing sponsor's ability and 
willingness to promptly provide the cash contribution, if any, 
as well as required lands, easements, rights-of-way, 
relocations, and disposal areas. When considering new 
construction starts, only those that can execute a project cost 
sharing agreement not later than December 31, 2021, shall be 
chosen.
    To ensure that the new construction starts are affordable 
and will not unduly delay completion of any ongoing projects, 
the Secretary is required to submit to the Committees on 
Appropriations of both Houses of Congress a realistic out-year 
budget scenario prior to issuing a work allowance for a new 
start. It is understood that specific budget decisions are made 
on an annual basis and that this scenario is neither a request 
for nor a guarantee of future funding for any project. 
Nonetheless, this scenario shall include an estimate of annual 
funding for each new start utilizing a realistic funding 
scenario through completion of the project, as well as the 
specific impacts of that estimated funding on the ability of 
the Corps to make continued progress on each previously funded 
construction project, including impacts to the optimum timeline 
and funding requirements of the ongoing projects, and on the 
ability to consider initiating new projects in the future. The 
scenario shall assume a Construction account funding level at 
the average of the past three budget requests.

                             INVESTIGATIONS

    The agreement includes $153,000,000 for Investigations. The 
agreement includes legislative language regarding parameters 
for new study starts.
    The allocation for projects and activities within the 
Investigations account is shown in the following table:

[GRAPHIC(S) NOT AVAILABLE IN TIFF FORMAT]


    Additional Funding.--The Corps is expected to allocate the 
additional funding provided in this account primarily to 
specific feasibility and PED phases, rather than to Remaining 
Items line items as has been the case in previous work plans.
    Of the additional funding recommended in this account for 
environmental restoration or compliance, the Corps shall 
allocate not less than $6,500,000 for ecosystem restoration 
projects in the PED phase that have been funded for PED within 
the last three years and provide benefits to multiple states.
    Of the additional funding provided in this account for 
environmental restoration or compliance and other authorized 
project purposes, the Corps shall allocate not less than 
$2,340,000 for ecosystem restoration projects that are 
modifications to flood protection project authorizations to 
address degraded conditions due to prior flood protection work.
    Of the additional funding recommended in this account for 
shore protection, the Corps shall allocate not less than 
$1,500,000 for the PED phase of beach re-nourishment projects 
that have been authorized by Congress for construction.
    Of the additional funding provided in this account for 
flood and storm damage reduction, the Corps shall allocate not 
less than $1,500,000 for PED to projects that are located in 
economically disadvantaged communities where the per capita 
income is less than half of the state and national averages and 
that have previously experienced loss of life due to flooding.
    Of the additional funding recommended in this account, the 
Corps shall allocate not less than $1,100,000 to PED activities 
for ecosystem restoration projects that also provide additional 
flood storage capacity by restoring the natural habitat.
    Of the additional funding recommended in this account, not 
less than $3,500,000 shall be to continue progress on studies 
that address coastal resilience identified in the North 
Atlantic Coast Comprehensive Study.
    Of the additional funding recommended in this account, not 
less than $809,000 shall be to update project economics on the 
inland waterways system.
    Of the additional funding recommended in this account, not 
less than $500,000 shall be allocated to studies that would re-
evaluate options to address eroding shorelines.
    When allocating the additional funding provided in this 
account, the Corps shall consider giving priority to completing 
or accelerating ongoing studies or to initiating new studies 
that will enhance the nation's economic development, job 
growth, and international competitiveness; projects located in 
areas that have suffered recent natural disasters; are for 
projects that protect life and property; projects to restore 
floodplain and aquatic habitat through cost-effective and 
tested means; studies with a primary focus on flood risk 
management within a basin that experiences recurring flash 
flooding; or projects to address legal requirements. The Corps 
shall use these funds for additional work in both the 
feasibility and PED phases. The agreement includes sufficient 
additional funding to undertake a significant amount of 
feasibility and PED work. The administration is reminded that a 
project study is not complete until the PED phase is complete 
and that no new start or new investment decision shall be 
required when moving from feasibilityto PED. The Corps is 
reminded that activities related to innovative materials, as required 
under section 1208 of AWIA 2018 are eligible for funding under the 
Research and Development remaining item. The Corps is encouraged to 
consider studies that investigate the impacts of ship channels on beach 
nourishment projects.
    Arkansas River Flooding.--The Corps is directed to evaluate 
all of its authorities for assessing whether the purchase of 
additional flood easements along the Arkansas River in 
northeast Oklahoma and western Arkansas would significantly 
reduce the severity and duration of flood events. The Corps is 
directed to brief the Committee not later than 60 days after 
enactment of this Act on its findings. The agreement further 
directs the Corps to work with the Federal Emergency Management 
Agency on opportunities to implement such measures.
    Bubbly Creek.--There is disappointment that negotiations 
between the Corps, the Environmental Protection Agency, and the 
Department of Justice over remaining liability concerns have 
yet to produce an outcome that will allow the project to move 
forward. The parties are urged to expedite efforts to reach a 
resolution and the agreement reiterates House direction 
regarding a briefing on these negotiations.
    Central & South Florida Project.--The Corps is urged to 
maintain continued attention to the need of the South Florida 
economy and environment for a functioning flood control system.
    Chacon Creek, Texas.--The Corps is reminded that flood 
mitigation projects like Chacon Creek in Laredo, Texas, are 
eligible to compete for additional funding provided within this 
account.
    Chicago River.--The Corps is encouraged to work with the 
City of Chicago River Ecology and Governance Task Force toward 
a comprehensive ecosystem restoration solution for the 
restoration of the Chicago River.
    Chicago Shoreline.--Concerns persist that lake levels in 
the Great Lakes are predicted to surpass record high levels. 
The Corps is encouraged to reevaluate the conclusions of the 
original feasibility report to assess federal interest in 
providing additional coastal protection along the Chicago 
shoreline.
    Coastal Field Data Collection.-- The agreement includes an 
additional $1,000,000 above the budget request amount of 
$1,000,000 to continue data collection and research on the 
impact of extreme storms in coastal regions. The Corps is 
encouraged to include increased funding in future budget 
submissions.
    Disposition of Completed Projects.--The Corps is directed 
to provide to the Committee copies of disposition studies upon 
completion.
    Flood Policy in Urban Areas.--There is concern about the 
delay in receiving the Flood Policy Within Urban Areas report 
as required by section 1211 of America's Water Infrastructure 
Act of 2018 (Public Law 115-270). The Corps shall brief the 
Committees on Appropriations of both Houses of Congress not 
later than 45 days after enactment of this Act on the findings 
of this report.
    Great Lakes Coastal Resiliency Study.--The Corps is 
reminded that the Great Lakes Coastal Resiliency study is 
eligible to compete for a new start as provided in this Act.
    Great Lakes Mississippi River Interbasin Study [GLMRIS].--
The budget request does not reflect the urgency of moving 
forward as quickly as possible on interim steps to prevent the 
upstream movement of Asian carp through the Illinois River 
toward Lake Michigan.
    Hartford and East Hartford, Connecticut Levee Systems.--The 
Corps is encouraged to consider the urgency of this effort when 
allocating the additional funding recommended in this account.
    Kanawha River Basin Study.--Severe flooding in the Kanawha 
River Basin continues to be an issue, with a recent flood event 
in June 2016 claiming 23 lives and damaging over 4,600 homes. A 
2017 report approved by the Corps recommended a comprehensive 
flood risk management study to address residual risk and 
flooding in areas not protected by current Corps projects, 
where there are significant life and safety concerns. The Corps 
is reminded this study is eligible to compete for additional 
funding provided in this account and the Corps is encouraged to 
include appropriate funding in future budget submissions.
    Kenai Bluffs Erosion.--The Corps is encouraged to move as 
expeditiously as possible to PED and urged to include 
appropriate funding in future budget submissions.
    Laurel, Maryland.--The Corps is encouraged to continue its 
partnership with the city of Laurel, Maryland to provide 
assistance in updating tools needed to develop flood risk 
reduction alternatives to assist local communities in flood 
resiliency efforts along the Patuxent River.
    Lower Missouri River Basin.--In the Spring of 2019, the 
Missouri River Basin experienced record flooding as result of 
saturated soils and high water levels from unprecedented 
rainfall and snowmelt runoff. This resulted in billions of 
dollars in damage to homes, businesses, and levees along the 
river. In response to these events, Congress provided resources 
and the Corps included in its work plan a new start for a flood 
risk management study, the Lower Missouri Basin Flood Risk and 
Resiliency Study, IA, KS, NE and MO. Flooding in the Lower 
Missouri River Basin continues to increase, proving the need 
for a more comprehensive, system-wide plan for long-term flood 
risk reduction. The Corps is urged to work with pertinent state 
and federal agencies and stakeholders to identify authorities, 
resources, and opportunities available to support such an 
effort. The Corps shall brief the Committees on Appropriations 
of both Houses of Congress not later than 60 day after 
enactment of this Act on recommendations for development of a 
comprehensive, system-wide plan for the Lower Missouri Basin. 
This briefing shall include what resources and additional 
authorities would be needed; the challenges and limitations, 
including policy and funding concerns; and an overview of the 
steps that would be necessary to complete the comprehensive 
system plan.
    McClellan-Kerr Arkansas River Navigation System [MKARNS].--
There is understanding that this project has capability in 
fiscal year 2021 to update the economic impacts of the project. 
The Corps is reminded that this project can compete for 
additional funding provided in this account and encouraged to 
include appropriate funding in future budget submissions.
    McMicken Dam, Arizona.--The Corps shall brief the 
Committees on Appropriations of both Houses of Congress not 
later than 90 days after enactment of this Act on how it 
considers the value of national security in prioritizing and 
formulating studies and projects.
    National Historic Landmarks.--The Corps is encouraged to 
expedite the completion of flood and storm damage reduction 
studies related to preserving National Historic Landmarks that 
are immediately threatened by shoreline erosion, such as the 
bridge in Selma, Alabama.
    Natural Infrastructure Options.--The Corps is directed to 
engage with state and local governments and non-profit 
organizations, where appropriate, on projects in diverse 
geographic areas that incorporate natural infrastructure, and 
is encouraged to incorporate such features into projects during 
the project formulation phase, where appropriate and effective.
    Nome, Alaska.--The Corps is reminded that projects such as 
the Port of Nome, Alaska, are eligible to compete for 
additional funding provided in this account.
    North Atlantic Coast Focus Area Studies.--There is 
significant disappointment that the administration discontinued 
funding for several ongoing studies to address flood damage and 
loss of life along the Atlantic coastline. In the wake of 
Hurricane Sandy, the North Atlantic Coast Comprehensive Study 
was authorized to address coastal storm and flood risk to 
vulnerable populations, property, ecosystems, and 
infrastructure, including the Baltimore Coastal Storm Risk 
Management, the Nassau County Back Bays, the New Jersey Back 
Bays, the New York-New Jersey Harbor and Tributaries, the 
Delaware Inland Bays, Delaware Bay Coast focus area studies. 
Completion of these focus area studies, is critical to 
determining the best course of action to mitigate future 
damage. The Corps is reminded that these studies are eligible 
to compete for additional funding provided in this account, and 
the Corps is encouraged to include appropriate funding for 
these studies in future budget submissions.
    North Atlantic Division Report on Hurricane Barriers and 
Harbors of Refuge.--The Corps is directed to brief Committees 
on Appropriations of both Houses of Congress not later than 90 
days after enactment of this Act on the status and path forward 
for the North Atlantic Division report on hurricane barriers 
and harbors of refuge mandated under Section 1218 of America's 
Water Infrastructure Act of 2018 (Public Law 115-270).
    Planning Assistance to States.--The Corps is reminded that 
this program encompasses many types of studies and technical 
assistance dealing with a number of water resource issues, 
including but not limited to, sediment management, state water 
planning, water distribution, and water supply evaluations.
    Planning Assistance to States, Vulnerable Coastal 
Communities.--The Corps is encouraged to continue building 
capacity to provide this assistance to vulnerable coastal 
communities, including tribal communities.
    Puget Sound Nearshore Study.--The Corps is encouraged to 
proceed with the tiered implementation strategy using all 
existing authorities as outlined in the Puget Sound Nearshore 
Ecosystem Restoration Project Feasibility Study, Completion 
Strategy Guidance dated June 2015. The Corps is directed to 
recognize the Puget Sound Nearshore Study as the feasibility 
component for the purposes of section 544 of the Water 
Resources Development Act of 2000 (Public Law 106-541) and is 
reminded that this study is eligible to compete for additional 
funding provided in this account.
    Research and Development.--The Corps is encouraged to 
engage in monitored field trials of coastal restoration 
optimized for blue carbon COT2 sequestration. The agreement 
notes that certain machine learning and artificial intelligence 
initiatives are underway, including the Numerical Modeling 
Modernization and Data25 initiatives, and urges the Corps to 
continue this work. Lastly, the Corps is encouraged to 
collaborate with university partners to improve the 
capabilities for improving the integrity and performance of the 
nation's levee systems.
    Research and Development, Biopolymers.--The agreement notes 
the importance of earthen infrastructure to support safety, 
flood control, and water distribution systems (dams and 
levees). The agreement notes the value of research into the use 
of biopolymers to rehabilitate these deteriorating structures, 
reduce the costs of rehabilitating and maintaining these 
structures, and increase resiliency of these structures against 
potential threats. The agreement includes $4,000,000 for these 
activities.
    Research and Development, Freshwater Intrusion.--The 
Committee recognizes the need to develop tools to assess, 
forecast, and proactively manage the hydrodynamic and 
environmental impacts of large-scale freshwater intrusion into 
the Mississippi Sound and surrounding waters. These consistent 
freshwater intrusions have been detrimental to the Mississippi 
Sound and the U.S. blue economy. The Corps is encouraged to 
partner with academia with expertise in coastal processes and 
ocean and hydrodynamic modeling to develop these tools.
    Research and Development, Future Work.--The agreement 
recognizes the value of research topics currently being 
addressed by the Army Engineer Research and Development Center 
[ERDC]. ERDC and the Corps have identified a series of critical 
research categories that will advance the efficient 
implementation of the Civil Works mission and provide value to 
the nation, including by leveraging the expertise of 
universities through partnerships. ERDC is directed to brief 
the Committees on Appropriations of both Houses of Congress not 
later than 90 days after enactment of this Act on future 
research needs, including multi-year funding requirements, and 
potential university partnerships related to strategic goals to 
advance the Civil Works mission. Potential specific topics 
include, but are not limited to: increasing resilience through 
natural infrastructure on drought-prone lands; the use of 
biopolymers to improve the integrity of earthen structures; 
forecasting coastal processes to protect infrastructure; 
developing capabilities to improve the structural integrity of 
levees and dams; the opportunities for polymer composites to 
increase the durability of infrastructure; and the impacts of 
freshwater intrusion into estuaries.
    Research and Development, Innovative Technologies for 
Resilient Infrastructure.--There is recognition that research 
is needed to test and refine use of rapid, repeatable, and 
remote methods for long-term monitoring of critical water 
infrastructure. The Corps is encouraged to partner with 
academia to research and manage emerging threats to attain 
resilient flood control structures.
    Research and Development, Modeling.--The recommendation 
provides $2,000,000 to support research into predictive models 
and field-based research into geochemical, geophysical, and 
sedimentological analysis and modeling of diverse field sites 
on contemporary and historic time frames. It is understood that 
with continued funding, this effort will be completed in four 
years.
    Research and Development, Oyster Reefs.--The agreement 
provides $2,220,000 for the Corps to partner with research 
universities to conduct oyster reef restoration research and 
understand that with continued funding this effort will be 
completed in fiscal year 2022.
    Research and Development--Urban Flood Damage Reduction and

industry groups, academia, and non-governmental organizations 
who can provide specialized expertise and coordinate 
appropriate attention and interest in the study's design and 
implementation from relevant stakeholders, including coastal 
state agencies, local officials, and private coastal scientists 
and engineers. The Corps is urged to ensure due consideration 
of near-shore marine habitat with potential impacts of coastal 
flooding and inundation within the scope of this study and 
where possible, ensure the full interoperability of modeling 
work and data analysis conducted for this study and other 
inland flood control and aquatic ecosystem restoration projects 
bordering the study area.
    Upper Des Plaines River and Tributaries Project, Illinois 
and Wisconsin.--The Corps is urged to cooperate with the non-
federal sponsor as it prepares to advance work on a number of 
flood features under section 204 of the Water Resources 
Development Act of 1986.
    There is also awareness of local concerns about the impact 
the proposed Foxconn project in Wisconsin may have on flooding 
in communities downriver in Illinois surrounding the Des 
Plaines River. As the Corps re-evaluates the project, it is 
encouraged to take the impacts of the proposed Foxconn project 
into consideration.
    Upper Mississippi River-Illinois Waterway System.--There is 
recognition of the importance of advancing the Navigation and 
Ecosystem Sustainability Program (NESP), as authorized in Title 
VIII of the Water Resources and Development Act of 2007 (Public 
Law 110-114), for the Upper Mississippi region and the nation's 
economy. Congress has already appropriated more than 
$66,000,000 in PED funding for this program. The Corps is 
reminded that this project is eligible to compete for 
additional funding provided in this account.
    Upper Missouri River Basin Flood and Drought Monitoring.--
To prevent additional unnecessary delays to the implementation 
of this program, a new remaining item in the O&M account titled

the importance of the Upper Ohio Navigation system and of 
modernizing its facilities. The Corps is encouraged to include 
continued PED work in future budget requests.
    Watertown, South Dakota.--The Corps is reminded that this 
study is eligible to compete for additional funding provided in 
this account.
    Water Quality and Salinity Impacts on Oyster Reefs.--The 
Corps is encouraged, when conducting or reviewing environmental 
assessments or environmental impact statements for navigation 
or coastal restoration projects in areas where oyster reefs 
exist, to consider water quality and salinity impacts on those 
reefs and, when appropriate, to mitigate any negative impacts.
    Willamette River.--The Corps is directed to prioritize 
environmental restoration for urban area floodplain and aquatic 
habitat through cost effective means, such as fish passage and 
culvert replacement. These efforts should benefit all Columbia 
River and Willamette River salmon and steelhead listed under 
the Endangered Species Act (ESA) and Pacific Lamprey, which is 
a culturally, and ecologically important species and treaty-
reserved resource to the Pacific Northwest Tribal Nations.

                              CONSTRUCTION

     The agreement includes $2,692,645,000 for Construction. 
The agreement includes legislative language regarding the 
Inland Waterways Trust Fund.
     The allocation for projects and activities within the 
Construction account is shown in the following table:

[GRAPHIC(S) NOT AVAILABLE IN TIFF FORMAT]

    Updated Capability.--The agreement adjusts some project-
specific allocations downward from the budget request based on 
updated information.
    Additional Funding.--The agreement includes additional 
funds for projects and activities to enhance the nation's 
economic growth and international competitiveness.
    Of the additional funding provided in this account for 
environmental restoration or compliance and other authorized 
project purposes, the Corps shall allocate not less than 
$25,000,000 for multistate ecosystem restoration programs for 
which a comprehensive restoration plan is in development or has 
been completed, of which not less than $5,000,000 shall be for 
projects or programs that restore and rehabilitate native 
oyster reefs.
    Of the additional funds provided in this account for flood 
and storm damage reduction, navigation, and other authorized 
project purposes, the Corps shall allocate not less than 
$35,000,000 to authorized reimbursements for projects with 
executed project partnership agreements and that have completed 
construction or where non-Federal sponsors intend to use the 
funds for additional water resource development activities.
    Of the additional funds provided in this account, the Corps 
shall allocate not less than $39,638,000 to projects with 
riverfront development components.
    Of the additional funding provided in this account for 
navigation and other authorized project purposes, the Corps 
shall allocate not less than $59,200,000 to continue activities 
to construct new navigation infrastructure for locks not on the 
inland waterways system and Corps-owned bridges.
    Of the additional funding provided in this account for 
flood and storm damage reduction and flood control, the Corps 
shall allocate not less than $29,000,000 to continue 
construction of projects that principally address drainage in 
urban areas.
    Of the additional funding provided in this account for

storm damage risk reduction projects in a comprehensive plan 
with authorized environmental restoration components.
    Public Law 115-123 and Public Law 116-20 included funding 
within the Flood Control and Coastal Emergencies account to 
restore authorized shore protection projects to full project 
profile. That funding is expected to address most of the 
current year capability. Therefore, to ensure funding is not 
directed to where it cannot be used, the agreement includes 
$50,204,000 for construction of shore protection projects. The 
Corps is reminded that if additional work can be done, these 
projects are also eligible to compete for additional funding 
for flood and storm damage reduction.
    When allocating the additional funding provided in this 
account, the Corps is encouraged to evaluate authorized 
reimbursements in the same manner as if the projects were being 
evaluated for new or ongoing construction. The Corps shall not 
condition these funds, or any funds appropriated in this Act, 
on a non-federal interest paying more than their required share 
in any phase of a project. When allocating the additional 
funding provided in this account, the Corps shall consider 
giving priority to the following:
    1. benefits of the funded work to the national economy;
    2. extent to which the work will enhance national, 
regional, or local economic development;
    3. number of jobs created directly and supported in the 
supply chain by the funded activity;
    4. significance to national security, including the 
strategic significance of commodities;
    5. ability to obligate the funds allocated within the 
calendar year, including consideration of the ability of the 
non-federal sponsor to provide any required cost share;
    6. ability to complete the project, separable element, or 
project phase with the funds allocated;
    7. legal requirements, including responsibilities to 
Tribes;
    8. for flood and storm damage reduction projects (including 
authorized nonstructural measures and periodic beach 
renourishments),
    a. population, economic activity, or public infrastructure 
at risk, as appropriate;
    b. the severity of risk of flooding or the frequency with 
which an area has experienced flooding; and
    c. preservation of historically significant communities, 
culture, and heritage;
    9. for shore protection projects, projects in areas that 
have suffered severe beach erosion requiring additional sand 
placement outside of the normal beach renourishment cycle or in 
which the normal beach renourishment cycle has been delayed, 
and projects in areas where there is risk to life and public 
health and safety, and risk of environmental contamination;
    10. for navigation projects, the number of jobs or level of 
economic activity to be supported by completion of the project, 
separable element, or project phase;
    11. for projects cost shared with the Inland Waterways 
Trust Fund (IWTF), the economic impact on the local, regional, 
and national economy if the project is not funded, as well as 
discrete elements of work that can be completed within the 
funding provided in this line item;
    12. for other authorized project purposes and environmental 
restoration or compliance projects, that include the beneficial 
use of dredged material; and
    13. for environmental infrastructure, projects with the 
greater economic impact, projects in rural communities, 
projects in communities with significant shoreline and 
instances of runoff, projects in or that benefit counties or 
parishes with high poverty rates, projects owed past 
reimbursements, projects in financially-distressed 
municipalities, projects that improve stormwater capture 
capabilities, projects that provide backup raw water supply in 
the event of an emergency, and projects that will provide 
substantial benefits to water quality improvements.
    The following is the only direction with regard to the 
availability of additional funds for IWTF cost-shared projects. 
The agreement provides funds making use of all estimated annual 
revenues, which includes a total appropriation of $113,000,000 
from the IWTF for ongoing construction projects and one new 
IWTF cost-shared project to be started in fiscal year 2021. The 
Corps shall continue to prioritize ongoing construction 
projects and allocate all funds provided in the IWTF Revenues 
line item along with the statutory cost share from funds 
provided in the Navigation line item prior to allocating the 
remainder of funds in the Navigation line item. The agreement 
rejects the budget request's proposal to reform Inland 
Waterways financing by increasing the amount paid by commercial 
navigation users of inland waterways. The Corps shall continue 
to use, as appropriate, the Inland and Intracoastal Waterways 
Twenty-Year Capital Investment Strategy dated March 2016, as 
the applicable 20-year plan.
    The Corps is reminded that it was directed to develop 
metrics for the selection of environmental infrastructure 
projects that receive funds and provide a report on such 
metrics to Congress. The Corps shall brief the Committees on 
Appropriations of both Houses of Congress not later than 90 
days after enactment of this Act on the status of these 
efforts. Additionally, the Corps shall include in this 
briefing: a comprehensive listing of all authorized 
environmental infrastructure authorities, including total 
costs; a snapshot of all environmental infrastructure 
authorities funded in the last 10 years; and a plan for how the 
metrics for prioritization of environmental infrastructure 
projects may guide the Corps' future funding considerations 
under the program.
    Notwithstanding the direction on new starts in the front 
matter of Title I, the Corps may allocate funds to at least 
one, but not more than two environmental infrastructure 
authorities not previously funded, which may include regional 
environmental infrastructure authorities.
    Advanced Measures.--The Corps is encouraged to fully use 
the authorities granted to it under the Advanced Measures 
program to mitigate impacts expected to occur in the Great 
Lakes Basin as a result of record-high and near-record-high 
water levels.
    Alternative Delivery.--The Corps is reminded that Public-
Private Partnerships and projects that utilize a split-delivery 
approach are eligible for additional funding in this account.
    Aquatic Plant Control Program.--Of the additional funding 
provided for the Aquatic Plant Control Program, $15,000,000 
shall be for watercraft inspection stations, as authorized in 
section 104 of the River and Harbor Act of 1958, equally 
distributed to carry out subsections (d)(1)(A)(i), 
(d)(1)(A)(ii), and (d)(1)(A)(iii), and $3,000,000 shall be for 
related monitoring. The agreement provides $1,000,000 for 
nationwide research and development to address invasive aquatic 
plants, and activities for monitoring, surveys, and control of 
flowering rush and hydrilla verticillate and $6,000,000 shall 
be for nationwide research and development to address invasive 
aquatic plants, within which the Corps is encouraged to support 
cost-shared aquatic plant management programs. The agreement 
also includes House direction, including a briefing, on 
mechanical harvesting.
    Barrow Alaska Coastal Erosion.--The flooding and erosion 
experienced in Barrow, Alaska presents significant risk to life 
and safety, threatens the community's only drinking water 
source, and creates risk from environmental contamination. The 
Corps is reminded this project is eligible to compete for 
additional funding provided in this account and is encouraged 
to include appropriate funding in future budget submissions.
    Beneficial Use of Dredged Material Pilot Program.--The 
agreement reiterates House direction on this topic.
    Bird Drive Basin Conveyance, Seepage Collection, and 
Recharge.--The Corps is encouraged to work with the Department 
of the Interior and the South Florida Water Management District 
to quickly identify a consensus project footprint between SW 
8th Street and the C-1W Canal to the south, immediately east of 
Krome Avenue, to enable Miami-Dade County and the Miami-Dade 
Expressway Authority, or any successor organization, to begin 
necessary land acquisitions in support of the creation of a 
West Kendall Everglades Buffer and progress towards completing 
an important element of the Central Everglades Restoration 
Plan.
    Biscayne Bay Coastal Wetlands Project.--The Corps is 
encouraged to consider all available opportunities to increase 
environmental benefits to the coastal estuarine and glades 
habitats included in the study area.
    Camp Ellis Beach, Saco, Maine.--The Corps is directed to 
continue collaborative efforts to address the continued 
erosion.
    Cano Martin Pena, Puerto Rico.--The agreement notes the 
environmental degradation and persistent flooding that 
disadvantages communities abutting the channel, as evidenced by 
Hurricanes Irma and Maria. There remains interest in the timely 
advancement of this project given the years of significant 
planning that have been undertaken and its purpose in restoring 
a critical watershed and the natural functioning of the tidal 
system in the San Jose Lagoon and the San Juan Bay Estuary. 
There is concern about the lost opportunities and delays 
arising due to the lack of funding to start construction of 
this important project. The Corps is encouraged to include 
appropriate funding for this project in future budget 
submissions and to work with the non-federal sponsor to advance 
the project to the next phase at the earliest practicable 
opportunity. The agreement reiterates House direction regarding 
briefing requirements.
    Central Everglades Planning Project [CEPP].--The Corps is 
urged to expedite the required validation reports for PPA North 
and PPA New Water and to begin design and construction of 
components for PPA South and PPA New Water as soon as 
practicable to complement the efforts of the South Florida 
Water Management District. The Everglades Agricultural Area 
(EAA) Storage Reservoir is considered an element of CEPP, 
consistent with section 1308 of America's Water Infrastructure 
Act of 2018 (Public Law 115-270) which anticipated the EAA 
Storage Reservoir to be designed and constructed as a component 
of CEPP, rather than as a discrete project.
    CERP-Indian River Lagoon-South.--The Corps is encouraged to 
move on to the final construction of the C-44 Reservoir, and to 
expedite design work on the C-23 and C-24 Reservoirs that, 
along with the C-44 Reservoir, will serve as crucial elements 
of the Indian River Lagoon-South project to collect and clean 
Lake Okeechobee discharges and basin runoff before excess 
nutrients are able to enter the fragile lagoon ecosystem.
    Chesapeake Bay Comprehensive Water Resources Restoration 
Plan and Oyster Recovery.--The Corps is reminded that the 
Chesapeake Bay Comprehensive Water Resources and Restoration 
Plan and the Chesapeake Bay Oyster Recovery Program are 
eligible to compete for the additional funding provided in this 
account, and the Corps is encouraged to provide appropriate 
funding in future budget submissions.
    Construction Funding Schedules.--A complete and reliable 
cost estimate with an out-year funding schedule is essential to 
understanding current funding and future funding requirements 
within the Corps' Construction portfolio. A comprehensive 
outlook of these dynamic requirements is necessary for Congress 
to consider and balance funding allocations annually, and to 
assess the long-term effects of new investment decisions. 
Therefore, not later than 90 days after enactment of this Act 
and annually thereafter, the Chief of Engineers shall submit 
directly to the Committees on Appropriations of both Houses of 
Congress, a breakdown, by fiscal year, of the full and 
efficient federal funding needs for each active construction 
project in the Corps' Civil Works program. For each project 
identified, the Corps shall also provide the total project cost 
with a breakdown between the federal and non-federal costs, and 
any applicable authorization ceiling. For the purposes of this 
report, an active project shall mean any project with an 
expressed capability in the current or following fiscal year, 
which has received construction account appropriations, 
including those funded in a supplemental, and has remaining 
costs to be funded from the construction account. These funding 
requirements shall be based on technical construction 
sequencing and realistic workflow and shall not be altered to 
reflect administrative policies and priorities or any assumed 
limitation on funding available.
    Continuing Authorities Program.--Funding is provided for 
nine CAP sections at a total of $69,500,000. The management of 
CAP shall continue consistent with direction provided in 
previous fiscal years. Not later than 90 days after enactment 
of this Act, the Corps shall brief the Committee on how the 
Corps prioritizes CAP projects for funding and on program 
execution.
    The Corps shall allow for the advancement of flood control 
projects in combination with ecological benefits using natural 
and nature-based solutions alone, or in combination with, built 
infrastructure where appropriate for reliable risk reduction 
during the development of projects under CAP 205.
    Within the section 1135 CAP authority, and to the extent 
already authorized by law, the Corps is reminded that projects 
that restore degraded wetland habitat and stream habitat 
impacted by construction of Corps levees or channels, including 
those with executed Feasibility Cost Share Agreements, are 
eligible to compete for funding. The Corps is reminded that 
projects that restore degraded wetland habitat and stream 
habitat impacted by construction of Corps levees or channels, 
and projects that will divert significant pollutant nutrient 
runoff from entering wetland habitats, are eligible to compete 
for funding.
    The Corps is encouraged to expedite the implementation of 
feasibility studies approved in 2019 under section 206 of the 
Flood Control Act of 1958 and reminded that projects approved 
in 2019 are eligible to compete for funds provided under 
section 206.

deadline established in the Biological Opinion.
    Lake Champlain Watershed.--The Corps is reminded that 
section 542 of Water Resources Development Act of 2000 (Public 
Law 106-541) as amended, authorizes the Corps to provide 
assistance to non-federal interests to address a range of 
environmental issues in the Lake Champlain Watershed in Vermont 
and New York. The Corps is further reminded that projects in 
the Lake Champlain Watershed are eligible to compete for 
additional funding provided in this account.
    Lakes Marion and Moultrie, South Carolina.--The Corps is 
reminded that the Lakes Marion and Moultrie regional water 
supply project is eligible to compete for additional funding 
provided in this account.
    McClellan-Kerr Arkansas River Navigation System, Arkansas 
and Oklahoma.--The Committee recognizes the importance of the 
12-foot navigational channel project to the McClellan-Kerr 
Arkansas River Navigation System. The Corps is encouraged to 
continue working with stakeholders and is reminded that this 
project is eligible to compete for additional funding provided 
in this account.
    Mud Mountain Dam.--The Corps is encouraged to uphold the 
agency's ESA and Tribal treaty responsibilities by completing 
construction of the fish passage facility and fully 
implementing the Biological Opinion requirements by the end of 
2020.
    Murrieta Creek.--The non-federal sponsor intends to pursue 
a section 221 In-Kind Credit Contribution Agreement with the 
Corps to do the design work to optimize the multi-purpose basin 
so as to eliminate or reduce the need for perimeter levees, 
optimize costs and benefits, and facilitate interim uses of the 
property. The Corps is encouraged to move forward with timely 
approval of the agreement. The non-federal sponsor also is 
moving forward with the Corps to address the outdated 
information in the Corps' economic side-by-side analysis for 
the project in order to identify the most cost-effective 
project. The Corps is directed to coordinate closely with the 
non-federal sponsor in the economic update in order to have a 
strong basis for the development of a decision document that 
focuses on identifying the remaining justified features for 
construction completion.
    New Buffalo, Michigan.--The agreement reiterates House 
direction regarding a briefing on this issue.
    New Programs Requested in the Budget Proposal.--The budget 
request includes a proposal for $250,000,000 for projects 
carried out under section 1043 of the Water Resources Reform 
and Development Act of 2014, ``Non-federal Implementation Pilot 
Program.'' This pilot program was authorized to allow the 
transfer of federal funds to non-federal interests for them to 
perform studies and construct projects. The agreement rejects 
the idea that the method of project execution should be used to 
prioritize projects for federal funding and provides no funds 
for such an effort. The Corps is directed to provide the 
briefing required in the fiscal year 2020 Act not later than 45 
days after enactment of this Act.
    Due to ongoing concerns, the Corps shall notify the 
Committees on Appropriations of both Houses of Congress upon 
receiving any proposal from a non-federal interest requesting 
to utilize the section 1043 authority. The Corps shall not 
negotiate or enter into a project partnership agreement to 
transfer funds to a non-federal interest utilizing this 
authority unless approval is received from the Committees on 
Appropriations of both Houses of Congress. None of the funds 
provided in this Act shall be used under this authority for a 
project where construction has been started but not completed. 
The Corps shall brief the Committees on Appropriations of both 
Houses of Congress not later than 45 days after enactment of 
this Act on activities carried out under the section 1043 pilot 
program, including the Corps' implementation guidance and any 
existing or potential agreements.
    The budget request also includes $250,000,000 for an 
Innovative Funding Partnerships Program to be used along with 
funds from non-federal interests ``in excess of the sponsor's 
statutory cost share requirements'' to carry out certain 
authorized projects. This is a blatant attempt to require 
funding in excess of legally required cost share as a criterion 
for funding decisions, which is contrary to long-standing 
congressional direction. No funds are provided for this 
proposal. The agreement notes, however, that any project that 
could have received funding under such a program is eligible to 
compete for the additional funding provided in this account 
based on the project performance criteria described in this 
report.
    New Savannah Bluff Lock and Dam, Georgia and South 
Carolina.--The agreement reiterates House direction regarding a 
briefing on this project.
    Norfolk Harbor and Channels Deepening, Virginia.--The Corps 
is reminded that the Norfolk Harbor and Channels Deepening

reminded this project is eligible to compete for a new 
construction start as provided in this Act.
    Portsmouth and Piscataqua River, New Hampshire.--The Corps 
is reminded this project is eligible to compete for a new 
construction start as provided in this Act.
    Projects in Drought-Stricken Areas.--The Corps is reminded 
that any authorized projects that would alleviate water supply 
issues in areas that have been afflicted by severe droughts in 
the last three fiscal years are eligible to compete for 
additional funding provided in this account.
    Salton Sea, California.--The Corps is encouraged to 
expeditiously move forward to carry out section 3032 of Public 
Law 110-114.
    South Florida Ecosystem Restoration (SFER).--As in previous 
years, the agreement provides funding for all study and 
construction authorities related to Everglades restoration 
under the line item titled ``South Florida Ecosystem 
Restoration, Florida.'' This single line item allows the Corps 
flexibility in implementing the numerous activities underway in 
any given fiscal year. For fiscal year 2021, the Corps is 
directed to make publicly available a comprehensive snapshot of 
all SFER cost share accounting down to the project level and to 
ensure the accuracy of all budget justification sheets that 
inform SFER Integrated Financial Plan documents by September 
30, 2021.
    Strategic Arctic Port.--The Corps is urged to move 
expeditiously on this project and is reminded that this project 
is eligible to compete for additional funding provided in this 
account, to decrease risks to life and safety from the 
increased traffic in the region, and to provide a port to 
military assets.
    The Dalles Dam, Tribal Housing.--The Corps is encouraged to 
complete the Village Development Plan in consultation with 
affected Columbia River tribes and the Bureau of Indian 
Affairs.
    Upper Mississippi River Restoration Program [UMRR], Quincy 
Bay.--Over the past 70 years, river traffic has led to the 
environmental degradation of Quincy Bay, and the Corps included 
funding to start this restoration project in its budget 
request. Therefore, the Corps is encouraged to include 
appropriate funding for this project in future budget 
submissions.
    West Sacramento Project.--The Corps is reminded that this 
project is eligible to compete for a new construction start as 
provided in this Act and is encouraged to include appropriate 
funding for this project in future budget submissions.
    Whittier Narrows, California.--The agreement reiterates 
House direction regarding a reporting requirement.

                   MISSISSIPPI RIVER AND TRIBUTARIES

    The agreement includes $380,000,000 for Mississippi River 
and Tributaries.
    The allocation for projects and activities within the 
Mississippi River and Tributaries account is shown in the 
following table:

[GRAPHIC(S) NOT AVAILABLE IN TIFF FORMAT]

    Additional Funding.--When allocating the additional funding 
provided in this account, the Corps shall consider giving 
priority to completing or accelerating ongoing work that will 
enhance the nation's economic development, job growth, and 
international competitiveness or are for studies or projects 
located in areas that have suffered recent natural disasters. 
While this funding is shown under Remaining Items, the Corps 
shall use these funds in investigations, construction, and 
operation and maintenance, as applicable. This may include work 
on remaining unconstructed features of projects permitted and 
authorized by law, in response to recent flood disasters. 
Additional funding is also provided in this account to initiate 
a new feasibility study.
    When allocating the additional funding recommended in this 
account, the Corps shall allocate not less than $30,000,000 for 
additional flood control construction projects, of which 
$15,560,000 shall be for those projects with flood control,

addressing watershed erosion, sedimentation, flooding, and 
environmental degradation.
    Lower Mississippi River Watershed.--The agreement notes 
negative impacts in the Mississippi River system as a result of 
multiple high-water events in recent years. The Corps shall 
brief the Committees on Appropriations of both Houses of 
Congress not later than 90 days after enactment of this Act on 
actions taken to manage the river over the past three years and 
any impacts of such actions on ecosystem restoration, 
navigation, flood control, water quality, and others. Congress 
has heard from stakeholders that the construction of new water 
resources development projects, improved data collection 
methods, and structural and operation modifications to existing 
projects are critical to better understand changing hydraulic 
features and to effectively manage and respond to future high-
water events, and that a study is necessary to fully understand 
such opportunities. Congress acknowledges that authorized 
comprehensive studies are eligible to compete for additional 
funding provided in the account. Congress expects any studies, 
updates, and changes to be made with the appropriate public 
involvement.
    Mississippi River Commission.--No funding is provided for 
this new line item. The Corps is directed to continue funding 
the costs of the commission from within the funds provided for 
activities within the Mississippi River and Tributaries

subsistence harbors and waterways to properly compete for 
scarce navigation maintenance funds. The Corps is directed to 
revise the criteria used for determining which navigation 
projects are funded in order to develop a reasonable and 
equitable allocation under this account. The agreement supports 
including criteria to evaluate the economic impact that these 
projects provide to local and regional economies.
    Aquatic Nuisance Control Research.--Harmful Algal Blooms 
[HABs] continue to threaten local communities, ecosystems, 
human health, drinking water sources, and local outdoor 
economies across the nation. These algae overgrowths produce 
dangerous toxins in fresh and marine waters that can sicken or 
kill people and animals, create dead zones, and raise treatment 
costs for drinking water. The devastating effects of HABs occur 
across multiple ecoregions from large freshwater lakes like 
Lake Erie in the Great Lakes, the Finger Lakes in New York, and 
Lake Okeechobee in Florida, to large inland waterways like the 
Ohio River where a 2015 event persisted for over a month 
involving over 700 miles of waterway.
    The recommendation provides $4,000,000 to supplement 
activities related to harmful algal blooms and directs the 
Corps to target freshwater ecosystems. The recommendation also 
provides $3,500,000 to supplement activities related to harmful 
algal blooms and directs the Corps to work collaboratively with 
appropriate university partners to address harmful algal blooms 
formation, detection, and remediation to enhance protection of 
vital U.S. water resources. There is awareness of the need to 
develop next generation ecological models to maintain inland 
and intracoastal waterways and the agreement provides 
$7,325,000 for this purpose. The Corps shall submit to the 
Committee not later than 90 days after enactment of this Act a 
report on these activities.
    Not later than 180 days after enactment of this Act, the 
Corps shall develop a comprehensive research plan for 
addressing the various and abundant HAB-related research needs. 
Included in this plan shall be a scope for each activity 
identified; the required annual funding needs and timeline to 
complete each research activity; how this research will provide 
specific value to the Corps' mission; how the Corps will 
balance needs across multiple regions and system types; and 
what opportunities will be available to partner with academia, 
outside organizations, and other federal agencies, where 
appropriate. Not later than 90 days after enactment of this 
Act, the Corps shall brief the Committees on Appropriations of 
both Houses of Congress on the status of this plan.
    Additional funding recommended in this remaining item is to 
supplement and advance Corps activities to address HABs and 
develop the comprehensive plan. Within these funds, the Corps 
is encouraged to continue investigating successful methods for 
combatting HABs; investigate harmful algal blooms across 
multiple ecoregions to predict HAB occurrence and toxicity, 
including in riverine ecosystems; identify and develop improved 
strategies for early detection, prevention, and management 
techniques and procedures to reduce the occurrence and impacts 
of harmful algal blooms in the nation's water resources; 
facilitate collaboration with university partners to assess the 
impacts of environmental triggers in riverine ecosystems to 
advance prediction, avoidance, and remediation efforts for 
harmful algal blooms; and improve early warning capabilities, 
which may include the use of UAS/drones to detect and monitor 
HABs.

Atlantic Ocean. The Corps is directed to continue its 
collaboration with the Department of the Navy to ensure regular 
maintenance dredging of the Kennebec.
    Keystone Lake, Oklahoma.--Northeast Oklahoma sees high 
amounts of rainfall during many spring seasons, oftentimes 
creating flooding concerns for residents and businesses in this 
region. This nearly annual occurrence is particularly 
problematic around Keystone Lake. Recreation areas that support 
the local economy can see closures ranging from several days or 
weeks to the entire recreation season, and residential roads 
can become impassable. To assist the local community and its 
economy, the Corps is encouraged to examine modifications that 
could be made to the management of Keystone Lake that would 
reduce the frequency and severity of flooding events. The Corps 
is directed to provide a briefing on possible actions to the 
Committees on Appropriations of both Houses of Congress not 
later than 60 days after enactment of this Act.

additional funds provided shall be used along with the 
$3,000,000 the Corps reprogrammed to the Hydrologic Studies 
remaining item on June 2, 2020, in the Investigations account.
    Tennessee-Tombigbee Waterway.--During the height of this 
shoaling in 2019, more than a dozen tows were stuck waiting for 
emergency channel work to restore traffic. Limited availability 
of emergency funds caused several weeks of additional delays. 
The Corps is directed to evaluate opportunities to improve 
operational scenarios that lead to reduced interruptions in 
commerce due to waterborne navigation corridor flooding, other 
silting activities, and unplanned lock closures.
    Toledo and Lorain Harbors, Ohio.--The Corps is reminded 
that the Toledo and Lorain Harbors are eligible to compete for 
additional funding provided in this account.
    Water Control Manuals.--Many water control manuals are 
decades old and in need of updating, particularly in light of 
recent dam disasters and improvements in forecast-informed 
reservoir operations (FIRO). Last year, Congress funded the 
development of a comprehensive list of water control manuals at 
Corps-owned projects located in states where a Reclamation 
project is also located, including a prioritized list of needed 
updates of those manuals. The agreement recommends $7,500,000 
in additional funds to complete water control manual updates at

reiterates the House direction regarding quarterly briefings. 
Additional funds above the budget request are also included to 
address capacity needs related to staffing in Corps districts 
that handle high a high volume of wetland permitting.
    Compensatory Mitigation Rule.--There is concern that the 
Corps may not be consistent in its implementation of the 2008 
Compensatory Mitigation Rule, based on the Corps' publicly 
available data. There are concerns that particular districts 
have failed to adhere to the mitigation hierarchy in the Rule 
as it pertains to the preference for mitigation bank credits. 
The Corps is reminded that although the Rule provides some 
discretion, the Rule is clear that this discretion is limited 
and deviations from the mitigation hierarchy must be based on 
scientific and technical analysis. The Corps is directed to 
properly and consistently implement the Rule, including 
adherence to its mitigation hierarchy and documentation of 
decisions by the District Engineer regarding which mitigation 
mechanism is appropriate to offset impacts under the Rule and 
which sections of the Rule justify the particular decision. The 
Corps shall brief theCommittees on Appropriations of both 
Houses of Congress not later than one year after the enactment of this 
Act on steps taken to ensure proper and consistent application of the 
Rule across districts, consistent with this direction.

Coastal Emergencies. As the nation experiences severe weather 
events more frequently, there is appreciation for the work the 
Corps undertakes with this funding. The agreement notes that 
traditionally funding for disaster response has been provided 
in supplemental appropriations legislation, including recently 
in 2018 (Public Law 115-123) and 2019 (Public Law 116-20) and 
that amounts necessary to address damages at Corps projects in 
response to natural disasters can be significant. The 
Administration is reminded that it has been deficient in 
providing to the Committee statutorily-required detailed 
estimates of damages to Corps projects.

                                EXPENSES

    The agreement includes $206,000,000 for Expenses.

for the Corps to efficiently and effectively accomplish the 
Corps' Civil Works mission. Additional funds recommended in 
this account shall be used to support implementation of the 
Corps' Civil Works program, including hiring additional FTEs. 
This includes developing and issuing policy guidance; managing 
Civil Works program; and providing national coordination of and 
participation in forums and events within headquarters, the 
division offices, and meeting other enterprise requirements and 
operating expenses. The Corps is encouraged to pursue updating 
the 2011 U.S. Manpower Analysis Agency staffing analysis based 
on current Civil Works needs. The Administration is urged to 
include in future budget requests funding commensurate with 
these needs.
    Deauthorizations and Inventory of Corps Projects.--In 
fiscal years 2019 and 2020, Congress directed the Corps to 
provide a list of all projects that have been deauthorized or 
will be deauthorized in the next two fiscal years as a result 
of section 1302 of the WIIN Act (Public Law 114-322) and a list 
of all authorized Corps studies and projects in each state. The 
Corps has yet to provide either of these requirements. 
Therefore, the Corps is directed to develop and submit to the 
Committees on Appropriations of both Houses of Congress not 
later than 120 days after the enactment of this Act the 
statutorily-required deauthorization lists and to brief the 
Committees not later than 30 days after the enactment of this 
Act on the status of these activities.

Assistant Secretary of the Army for Civil Works. The agreement 
also includes a rescission of $500,000 in prior-year 
unobligated balances, for a net appropriation of $4,500,000. 
The agreement includes legislative language that restricts the 
availability of funding until the Secretary submits the 
required baseline report and a work plan that allocates at 
least 95 percent of the additional funding provided in each 
account (i.e., 95 percent of additional funding provided in 
Investigations, 95 percent of additional funding provided in 
Construction, etc.). This restriction shall not affect the 
roles and responsibilities established in previous fiscal years 
of the Office of the Assistant Secretary of the Army for Civil 
Works, the Corps headquarters, the Corps field operating 
agencies, or any other executive branch agency.
    A timely and accessible executive branch in the course of 
fulfilling its constitutional role in the appropriations 
process is essential. The requesting and receiving of basic, 
factual information, such as budget justification materials, is 
vital in order to maintain a transparent and open governing 
process. The agreement recognizes that some discussions 
internal to the executive branch are pre-decisional in nature 
and, therefore, not subject to disclosure. However, the access 
to facts, figures, and statistics that inform these decisions 
are not subject to this same sensitivity and are critical to 
the budget process. The administration shall ensure timely and 
complete responses to these inquiries.
    There continues to be concerns about the bureaucratic 
process for renewing leases under 10 U.S.C. 2667 and 16 U.S.C. 
460d. Therefore, the Secretary is urged to consider the 
efficiencies that may be gained by allowing Corps districts to 
authorize lease renewals under this section, including lease 
applications in excess of 25 years.
    Administrative Costs.--To support additional transparency 
in project costs, the Secretary is directed to ensure that 
future budget submissions specify the amount of anticipated 
administrative costs for individual projects.

          WATER INFRASTRUCTURE FINANCE AND INNOVATION PROGRAM

    The agreement recommends $14,200,000 for the Water 
Infrastructure Finance and Innovation Program, an increase of 
$14,200,000 above the budget request.
    The financial assistance the Secretary is authorized to 
provide pursuant to the Water Infrastructure Finance and 
Innovation Act (Public Law 113-121) [WIFIA] can play an 
important role in improving the nation's infrastructure. The 
Corps is directed to complete the administrative actions 
necessary to stand up the WIFIA program (the Corps Water 
Infrastructure Financing Program) and to provide the financial 
assistance envisioned in the legislation. The recommendation 
makes $2,200,000 available to the Secretary for program 
development, administration, and oversight, including but not 
limited to, publishing the final fee and program rules, 
criteria for project eligibility and Notice of Funding 
Availability, as well as issuance of guidance to clarify, as 
Congress intended, that an eligible project to reduce flood 
damages, includes measures to prevent significant loss of life 
and property from the failure of high hazard dams, and that the 
financial assistance program authorized in WIFIA applies to all 
non-Federal projects and any authorized project that is non-
federally owned, operated, and maintained. The recommendation 
includes $12,000,000 for the financial assistance authorized by 
WIFIA.

             GENERAL PROVISIONS--CORPS OF ENGINEERS--CIVIL

                     (INCLUDING TRANSFER OF FUNDS)

    The agreement includes a provision relating to 
reprogramming.
    The agreement includes a provision regarding the allocation 
of funds.
    The agreement includes a provision prohibiting the use of 
funds to carry out any contract that commits funds beyond the 
amounts appropriated for that program, project, or activity.
    The agreement includes a provision concerning funding 
transfers related to fish hatcheries.
    The agreement includes a provision regarding certain 
dredged material disposal activities. The Corps is directed to 
brief the Committees on Appropriations of both Houses of 
Congress not later than 90 days after enactment of this Act on 
dredged material disposal issues.
    The agreement includes a provision prohibiting funds for 
reorganization of the Civil Works program. Nothing in this Act 
prohibits the Corps from contracting with the National Academy 
of Sciences to carry out the study authorized by section 1102 
of the America's Water Infrastructure Act of 2018 (P.L. 115-
270).
    The agreement includes a provision regarding eligibility 
for additional funding. Whether a project is eligible for 
funding under a particular provision of additional funding is a 
function of the technical details of the project; it is not a 
policy decision. The Chief of Engineers is the federal 
government's technical expert responsible for execution of the 
Civil Works program and for offering professional advice on its 
development. Therefore, the provision in this agreement 
clarifies that a project's eligibility for additional funding 
shall be solely the professional determination of the Chief of 
Engineers.
    The agreement includes a provision regarding reallocations 
at a project.
    The agreement includes a provision addressing new starts.

                  TITLE II--DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR


                          Central Utah Project


                central utah project completion account

    The agreement includes a total of $21,000,000 for the 
Central Utah Project Completion Account, which includes 
$17,700,000 for Central Utah Project construction, $1,800,000 
for transfer to the Utah Reclamation Mitigation and 
Conservation Account for use by the Utah Reclamation Mitigation 
and Conservation Commission, and $1,500,000 for necessary 
expenses of the Secretary of the Interior.

                         Bureau of Reclamation

    In lieu of all House and Senate direction regarding 
additional funding and the fiscal year 2021 work plan, the 
agreement includes direction under the heading ``Additional 
Funding for Water and Related Resources Work'' in the Water and 
Related Resources account.
    Drought Resiliency.--The agreement recommends $206,000,000 
for the drought resiliency programs authorized in the WIIN Act. 
There is the belief that a solution to chronic droughts is a 
combination of additional storage, substantial investments in 
desalination and recycling, improved conveyance, and increased 
efficiencies in the uses of water both for agriculture and 
potable purposes.
    Reclamation is directed to continue working with the U.S. 
Fish and Wildlife Service, the National Marine Fisheries 
Service, and relevant State agencies to undertake 
comprehensive, around the clock, real-time monitoring of water 
supply conditions and their impact on endangered species during 
critical periods in the winter and spring.
    Unmanned Aerial Systems.--The agreement acknowledges 
receipt of the October 2019 memo indicating that the Department 
of the Interior (Interior) does not operate any small Unmanned 
Aerial Systems (sUAS) that share data outside the system 
without specific consent of DOI. However, in January 2020, DOI 
grounded non-emergency UASs due to cybersecurity concerns. 
Given this development, Reclamation shall brief the Committees 
on Appropriations of both Houses of Congress not later than 90 
days after enactment of this Act on the total number of sUAS in 
inventory and operation, including a breakdown of those sUAS 
manufactured in or with critical components produced in the 
People's Republic of China. The briefing shall also include: 
the justification for the January 2020 grounding of all sUAS by 
the Department, the number of exceptions made for emergency 
missions, and the plan to source additional sUAS from American 
manufacturers.

                      WATER AND RELATED RESOURCES

                     (INCLUDING TRANSFERS OF FUNDS)

    The agreement provides $1,521,125,000 for Water and Related 
Resources.
    The agreement includes legislative language, in accordance 
with Public Law 114-322, to allow the use of certain funding 
provided in fiscal years 2017, 2018, 2019 and 2020.
    The agreement for Water and Related Resources is shown in 
the following table:

[GRAPHIC(S) NOT AVAILABLE IN TIFF FORMAT]

    Aamodt Litigation Settlement Act.--The agreement directs 
Reclamation to use funds on hand for this settlement to 
initiate construction of features necessary to prevent 
additional cost overruns.
    Additional Funding for Water and Related Resources Work.--
The agreement includes funds above the budget request for Water 
and Related Resources studies, projects, and activities. This 
funding is for additional work that either was not included in 
the budget request or was inadequately budgeted. Priority in 
allocating these funds should be given to advance and complete 
ongoing work, including preconstruction activities and where 
environmental compliance has been completed; improve water 
supply reliability; improve water deliveries; enhance national, 
regional, or local economic development; promote job growth; 
advance tribal and nontribal water settlement studies and 
activities; or address critical backlog maintenance and 
rehabilitation activities. Funding provided under this heading, 
``Additional Funding for Ongoing Work'' may be utilized for 
ongoing work, including preconstruction activities, on projects 
that provide new or existing water supplies through additional 
infrastructure.
    Of the additional funding provided under the heading 
``Water Conservation and Delivery,'' $134,000,000 shall be for 
water storage projects as authorized in section 4007 of the 
WIIN Act (Public Law 114-322).
    Of the additional funding recommended under the heading 
``Water Conservation and Delivery,'' not less than $8,000,000 
shall be for construction activities related to projects found 
to be feasible by the Secretary and which are ready to initiate 
for the repair of critical Reclamation canals where operational 
conveyance capacity has been seriously impaired by factors such 
as age or land subsidence, especially those that would 
imminently jeopardize Reclamation's ability to meet water 
delivery obligations.
    Of the additional funding recommended under the heading 
``Water Conservation and Delivery,'' $40,000,000 shall be for 
water conservation and banking or infrastructure projects in 
areas that are experiencing extended drought conditions; and 
with priority for activities related to the implementation of 
the agreements authorized by the Colorado River Drought 
Contingency Plan Authorization Act of 2019 (Public Law No. 116-
14). These water conservation activities shall include well 
construction and irrigation-related structural or other 
measures; programs and projects that result in conservation of 
surface water or groundwater; or improve water system 
efficiency, resiliency, reliability, delivery, and conveyance, 
including canal system improvements. Reclamation is directed to 
brief the Committees on Appropriations of both Houses of 
Congress not later than 180 days after enactment of this Act on 
the status of carrying out these activities.
    Of the additional funding provided under the heading 
``Environmental Restoration or Compliance,'' not less than 
$40,000,000 shall be for activities authorized under sections 
4001 and 4010 of the WIIN Act (Public Law 114-322) or as set 
forth in federal-state plans for restoring threatened and 
endangered fish species affected by the operation of 
Reclamation's water projects.
    Funding associated with each category may be allocated to 
any eligible study or project, as appropriate, within that 
category; funding associated with each subcategory may be 
allocated only to eligible studies or projects, as appropriate, 
within that subcategory.
    Not later than 45 days after enactment of this Act, 
Reclamation shall provide to the Committees on Appropriations 
of both Houses of Congress a report delineating how these funds 
are to be distributed, in which phase the work is to be 
accomplished, and an explanation of the criteria and rankings 
used to justify each allocation.
    Reclamation is reminded that the following activities are 
eligible to compete for funding under the appropriate heading: 
activities authorized under Indian Water Rights Settlements; 
aquifer recharging efforts to address the ongoing backlog of 
related projects; all authorized rural water projects, 
including those with tribal components, those with non-tribal 
components, and those with both; conjunctive use projects and 
other projects to maximize groundwater storage and beneficial 
use; ongoing work, including preconstruction activities, on 
projects that provide new or existing water supplies through 
additional infrastructure; and activities authorized under 
section 206 of Public Law 113-235. Reclamation is further 
reminded that feasibility studies and projects within the 
Central Valley Project Restoration fund, including those 
capable of improving water security from drought and natural 
disasters, are eligible to compete for additional funding 
provided in this account.
    Airborne Snow Observatory Program.--Reclamation has 
historically supported for snowpack surveys through the 
Airborne Snow Observatory (ASO) program and is encouraged to 
continue support of this important program.
    Anadromous Fish Screen Program.--Concerns persist that 
insufficient resources are being devoted to completing work on 
the last two remaining priority unscreened diversions on the 
Sacramento River, both of which have been specifically 
identified as priorities in the California Natural Resources 
Agency Sacramento Valley Salmon Resiliency Strategy. 
Reclamation is reminded that these diversions are eligible to 
compete for the additional funding provided in this account. 
Additionally, Reclamation is encouraged to maintain its focus 
on screening high priority diversions in the San Joaquin River 
Basin.
    Aquifer Recharge.--Reclamation is directed to work closely 
with project beneficiaries to identify and resolve any barriers 
to aquifer recharge projects when appropriate, while utilizing 
full authority to prioritize funds for ongoing projects through 
completion. Of the funds provided in this account above the 
budget request, $20,000,000 shall be for Aquifer Storage and 
Recovery projects focused on ensuring sustainable water supply 
and protecting water quality of aquifers in the Great Plains 
Region with shared or multi-use aquifers, for municipal, 
agricultural irrigation, industrial, recreation and domestic 
users.
    Buried Metallic Water Pipe.--Reclamation shall continue 
following its temporary design guidance.
    CALFED Water Storage Feasibility Studies.--There is 
recognition that these studies have taken more than 15 years 
and it is expected that Reclamation will take necessary steps 
to ensure that each of these studies is completed as soon as 
possible. Reclamation is directed to expeditiously complete 
financial assistance agreements requested by the non-Federal 
sponsors of these projects to help move the projects forward 
more efficiently.
    Columbia Basin Project.--The Odessa Groundwater Replacement 
project, part of the larger Columbia Basin Project, exists to 
address the severely declining Odessa groundwater aquifer 
within the Columbia Basin Irrigation Project boundary. The 2013 
Odessa Groundwater Replacement Project Environmental Impact 
Statement and Record of Decision provides the legal and 
regulatory framework to implement the Odessa Groundwater 
Replacement Project. Reclamation is encouraged to move forward 
on implementing authorized components of the plan.
    Drought Contingency Plans.--Reclamation, the Department of 
Interior, and the seven Colorado River Basin states are to be 
commended for completing drought contingency plans to conserve 
water and reduce risks from ongoing drought for the Upper and 
Lower Colorado River basins. The completion of these plans 
marks a major milestone in protecting a critical water source 
in the western United States. Reclamation is encouraged to 
provide sufficient funding in future budget requests for 
activities that support these plans.
    Lower Colorado River Operations Program.--Reclamation is 
reminded that activities within this program are eligible to 
compete for additional funds provided under ``Water 
Conservation and Delivery.''
    Pick-Sloan Ability-to-Pay.--Concerns persist that more than 
30 Pick-Sloan irrigation districts served by Reclamation may 
experience significant financial impacts should Reclamation 
move forward with the proposal to change the eligibility 
requirements for the program related to user's ability to pay. 
Reclamation shall review the Pick-Sloan Missouri Basin Program 
authorizing legislation and brief the Committees on 
Appropriations of both Houses of Congress on its findings, 
including the extent to which Congress authorized relief from 
operation maintenance, and replacement costs for project use 
power in that program based on an irrigation district's ability 
to pay, how that authority has been applied over time, and the 
impacts of the currently proposed changes. For federal 
projects, Reclamation is directed to continue to consider 
irrigation district ability to pay consistent with the original 
intent of Congress and the 1944 Flood Control Act.
    Research and Development: Desalination and Water 
Purification Program.--Of the funding provided for this 
program, $12,000,000 shall be for desalination projects as 
authorized in section 4009(a) of Public Law 114-322. 
Reclamation is encouraged to give special consideration to 
drought-prone regions and in collaboration with possible 
partners in the Middle East, including Israel.
    Rural Water Projects.--Voluntary funding in excess of 
legally required cost shares for rural water projects is 
acceptable, but shall not be used by Reclamation as a criterion 
for allocating additional funding provided in this agreement or 
for budgeting in future years.
    Salton Sea Restoration.--Reclamation is encouraged to 
partner with federal, state, and local agencies and coordinate 
use of all existing authorities to support the State of 
California's Salton Sea Management Program. Reclamation is 
reminded that these activities are eligible to compete for 
additional funds provided in this account.
    Salton Sea Research Program.--Reclamation is reminded that 
activities and projects associated with habitat improvement, 
water quality, and system development, projects with a public 
health benefit that will benefit economically disadvantaged 
communities, and projects that take a multi-agency approach are 
eligible to compete for additional funds provided in this act.
    San Joaquin River Restoration.--Concerns persist that 
Reclamation's fiscal year 2021 budget request proposes only 
$28,300,000 for the San Joaquin River Restoration Program, even 
though Reclamation's 2018 Funding-Constrained Framework for 
Implementation identifies over $643,000,000 in needed program 
work through fiscal year 2024. Reclamation is encouraged to 
continue to seek annual funding at recent levels for the 
program. Permanent appropriations, newly available for the 
program in fiscal year 2020 should not supplant continued 
annual appropriations.
    San Justo Reservoir, California.--Reclamation is reminded 
that the San Justo Reservoir Mussel Eradication Project is 
eligible to compete for the additional funding provided in 
``Water Conservation and Delivery.''
    Snow Modeling Data Processing.--Of the additional funding 
recommended in this account, $3,000,000 shall be to support 
Reclamation's efforts to support the U.S. Department of 
Agriculture and National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration 
efforts to improve real-time and derived snow water equivalent 
information such that it can be immediately used for water 
resources decision-making. Reclamation is directed to continue 
and expand its partnerships with other Federal water management 
agencies on the use of new technologies related to improved 
direct measurements and derived Reclamation is encouraged to 
use innovative techniques for the purposes of forecasting 
timing, duration, and quantities of snow-fed water supplies to 
provide accurate information on water supply levels in the 17 
western states, including, but not limited to, synthetic 
aperture radar and laser altimetry.
    St. Mary's Diversion Dam and Conveyance Works.--Given the 
recent drop structure failure and the potential impacts to 
Reclamation's ability to deliver water, Reclamation is directed 
to continue working with local stakeholders to find innovative 
ways to maintain and repair this infrastructure without undue 
impact to water users.
    Tualatin Project, Scoggins Dam, Oregon.--The agreement 
includes House direction regarding finalization of the Joint 
Project Contributed Funds Act agreement. Further, Reclamation 
shall brief the Committees on Appropriations of both Houses of 
Congress not later than 60 days after enactment of this Act on 
the status of the dam safety activities, including a timeline 
for completion and any challenges to addressing the safety 
concerns in the most efficient manner.
    Water and Energy Efficiency Grants.--Water and Energy 
Efficiency Grants are an important tool for building drought 
resiliency in the West. However, there is concern that many of 
the Water and Energy Efficiency Grants fund projects that may 
increase water scarcity at the basin scale by allowing 
conservation grant recipients to use conserved water for 
consumptive use.
    The agreement directs Reclamation to ensure that all 
projects funded under 42 U.S.C. 10364 comply with 42 U.S.C. 
10364(a)(3)(B) and to articulate the use of the conserved water 
with its annual award announcement. Reclamation is directed to 
report to the Committees on Appropriations of both Houses of 
Congress not later than September 1, 2021, on how much water 
each activity awarded a grant in fiscal year 2020 and 2021 
anticipated the activity would conserve annually and how the 
grantee was, or would be, using the conserved water, or was or 
would be ensuring that the conserved water did not go to 
increase consumptive use.
    WaterSMART Program.--Reclamation is encouraged to 
prioritize eligible water conservation projects that will 
provide water supplies to meet the needs of threatened and 
endangered species.
    WaterSMART Program: Title XVI Water Reclamation & Reuse 
Program.--Of the funding provided for this program, $20,000,000 
shall be for water recycling and reuse projects as authorized 
in section 4009(c) of Public Law 114-322.
    White Mountain Apache Rural Water System Project.--
Reclamation is directed to continue to work with the White 
Mountain Apache Tribe on the White Mountain Apache Rural Water 
System project, and is reminded that this project is eligible 
to compete for the additional funding provided in ``Water 
Conservation and Delivery.''
    Yakima River Basin Integrated Water Resource Management 
Plan.--This innovative water management plan represents years 
of collaboration in the Yakima River Basin among stakeholders 
including Reclamation, the State of Washington, the Yakama 
Nation, irrigators and farmers, conservation organizations, 
recreationists, and local governments to address water supply 
needs for agriculture, fish and wildlife, and municipal use. 
Reclamation is reminded that these activities are eligible to 
compete for additional funding provided in this account.

                CENTRAL VALLEY PROJECT RESTORATION FUND

    The agreement provides $55,875,000 for the Central Valley 
Project Restoration Fund.
    Anadromous Fish Screen Program.--The recommendation 
includes not less than $1,200,000 for the Anadromous Fish 
Screen Program, in accordance with the budget request. There 
continues to be concern about the disconnect between funding 
levels requested and ultimately allocated for the Anadromous 
Fish Screen Program. Reclamation is urged to maintain its focus 
on screening the remaining high priority diversions from within 
funds made available under the Central Valley Project 
Restoration Fund.

                    CALIFORNIA BAY-DELTA RESTORATION

                     (INCLUDING TRANSFERS OF FUNDS)

    The agreement provides $33,000,000 for the California Bay-
Delta Restoration Program.

                       POLICY AND ADMINISTRATION

    The agreement provides $60,000,000 for Policy and 
Administration.
    Reclamation Project Reimbursability Decisions.--In 
September 2017, the Department of the Interior's Office of 
Inspector General released a report calling into question the 
transparency of Reclamation's financial participation in the 
State of California's Bay-Delta Conservation Plan. Although 
Reclamation disputed several findings and recommendations in 
the report, Reclamation has taken steps to update its current 
practices and internal guidelines to better align with report 
recommendations. Reclamation is directed to provide to the 
Committees on Appropriations of both Houses of Congress not 
later than 10 days after enactment of this Act, or after 
finalizing these updates, written copies of the relevant 
documents, and not later than February 28, 2021, a list of 
instances of redirecting appropriated funds from the intended 
purpose outlined in the previous year's budget request.
    Concerns remain regarding administrative delays and 
excessive review times in the award and implementation of 
financial assistance agreement funding. Reclamation is urged to 
address factors related to these issues, including lags in 
completing contracts, in a timely and efficient manner.

                        ADMINISTRATIVE PROVISION

    The agreement includes a provision limiting Reclamation to 
purchase not more than five passenger vehicles for replacement 
only.

             General Provisions--Department of the Interior

    The agreement includes a provision outlining the 
circumstances under which the Bureau of Reclamation may 
reprogram funds.
    The agreement includes a provision regarding the San Luis 
Unit and Kesterson Reservoir in California.
    The agreement includes a provision regarding section 
9504(e) of the Omnibus Public Land Management Act of 2009.
    The agreement includes a provision regarding the CALFED 
Bay-Delta Authorization Act.
    The agreement includes a provision regarding section 
9106(g)(2) of the Omnibus Public Land Management Act of 2009.
    The agreement includes a provision regarding the 
Cooperative Watershed Management Program.
    The agreement includes a provision regarding the 
Reclamation States Emergency Drought Relief Act of 1991.
    The agreement includes a provision prohibiting the use of 
funds in this Act for certain activities.

                    TITLE III--DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY

    The agreement provides $39,625,025,000 for the Department 
of Energy to fund programs in its primary mission areas of 
science, energy, environment, and national security.

                        Congressional Direction

    The Committees on Appropriations of both Houses of Congress 
count on a timely and accessible executive branch in the course 
of fulfilling its constitutional role in the appropriations 
process. Requesting and receiving basic, factual information, 
including budget justification materials and responses to 
inquiries, is vital in order to ensure transparency and 
accountability. While some discussions internal to the 
executive branch may be pre-decisional in nature and therefore 
not subject to release, the Committees' access to the facts, 
figures, and statistics that inform the decisions of the 
executive branch are not subject to those same sensitivities. 
The Committees shall have ready and timely access to 
information from the Department, Federally Funded Research and 
Development Centers, and any recipient of funding from this 
Act. Further, the Committees appreciate the ability for open 
and direct communication with all recipients of funding from 
this Act, and the Department shall not interfere with such 
communication.

                       Reprogramming Requirements

    The agreement carries the Department's reprogramming 
authority in statute to ensure that the Department carries out 
its programs consistent with congressional direction. The 
Department shall, when possible, submit consolidated, 
cumulative notifications to the Committees on Appropriations of 
both Houses of Congress.
    Definition.--A reprogramming includes the reallocation of 
funds from one program, project, or activity to another within 
an appropriation. For construction projects, a reprogramming 
constitutes the reallocation of funds from one construction 
project to another project or a change of $2,000,000 or 10 
percent, whichever is less, in the scope of an approved 
project.

                   Financial Reporting and Management

    The Department is still not in compliance with its 
statutory requirement to submit to Congress, at the time that 
the President's budget request is submitted, a future-years 
energy program that covers the fiscal year of the budget 
submission and the four succeeding years, as directed in the 
fiscal year 2012 Act. In addition, the Department has an 
outstanding requirement to submit a plan to become fully 
compliant with this requirement. The Department is directed to 
provide these requirements not later than 30 days after 
enactment of this Act.
    Concerns persist that the Department is not considering 
carryover balances during the budget formulation process. The 
Department is directed to submit, with its budget submission to 
the Committees on Appropriations of both Houses of Congress, a 
plan to reduce its carryover balances to applicable thresholds 
by the end of fiscal year 2021. The Comptroller General of the 
United States shall assess the adequacy of the Department's 
plan and its interpretation of the application thresholds. 
Further, the Comptroller General is directed to assess the 
methodology by which carryover is calculated with special 
attention to contracting vehicles and associated funding 
requirements. The Comptroller General shall brief the 
Committees on its findings not later than 60 days after 
submission of the budget.
    Working Capital Fund.--The agreement reiterates House 
direction regarding the Working Capital Fund.
    Alleviation of Poverty.--In each year since fiscal year 
2016, the Department has been directed to provide a report 
detailing all domestic and international projects and programs 
within its jurisdiction that contribute to the alleviation of 
poverty. The report has not been provided, and the Department 
is directed to provide this report not later than 30 days after 
enactment of this Act.
    Contract Auditing and Management.--The agreement reiterates 
House direction to the Department and the Government 
Accountability Office (GAO) regarding the Cooperative Audit 
Strategy. In keeping with the Department's concurrence on GAO's 
recommendation, the Department is directed to track improper 
payment information in the Agency Financial Report and include 
the cumulative amounts of improper payments made in a given 
year to determine whether the annual total exceeds $100 
million. Not later than 120 days after enactment of this Act, 
the Department shall brief the Committees on Appropriations of 
both Houses of Congress on the Department's plan to implement 
GAO's recommendation.
    Congressional Reporting Requirements.--Given the 
Department's often lengthy delays in meeting its Congressional 
reporting requirements, the Department is directed to establish 
a tracking mechanism for all Congressional reporting 
requirements, to be led by the Office of the Chief Financial 
Officer. The Department shall brief the Committees on 
Appropriations of both Houses of Congress not later than 30 
days after enactment of this Act on this effort.

                  Workforce Development and Diversity

    Workforce Development.--The agreement reiterates House 
direction regarding a reporting requirement.
    Workplace Diversity.--The agreement reiterates House 
direction regarding reporting requirements.

                    Research and Development Policy

    The Department is directed to maintain a diverse portfolio 
of early-, mid-, and late-stage research, development, and 
market transformation activities in each applied energy 
research and development program office. The Department is 
further directed to fully execute the funds appropriated in a 
timely manner and to keep the Committees on Appropriations of

companies are bidding on multiple solicitations.
    --Barriers to entry: whether there are systemic impediments 
that affect whether companies will do business with DOE and 
NNSA, whether DOE and NNSA are aware of these impediments, and 
if so, what the agencies have done to address them.
    --Selection criteria: selection criteria DOE and NNSA have 
used for their large contracts, how the agencies determine the 
selection criteria to use for a solicitation, and how the 
agencies determine the relative priority of those criteria.
    --Past performance information: how DOE and NNSA use 
information on past performance in making awards, particularly 
when many large DOE and NNSA contracts are awarded to several 
companies that come together to form a single purpose limited 
liability company, and how reliable the information in the 
Contractor Performance Assessment Reporting System is for 
making determinations about companies' past performance.
    The Comptroller General shall provide a briefing to the

underground testing. Recapitalizing the nuclear security 
enterprise is among our most important national security 
priorities.
    The NNSA Act clearly lays out the functions of the NNSA and 
gives the Administrator authority over, and responsibility for, 
those functions. The agreement again directs that no funds 
shall be used to reorganize, re-classify, or study combining 
any of those functions with the Department.
    Coordination between the Department of Energy and the 
Department of Defense is critical given the joint 
responsibilities for the nation's nuclear deterrent. Section 
179 of title 10 of the United States Code provides a framework 
for coordination, including budget request development, between 
the departments using the Nuclear Weapons Council while 
recognizing the Department of Energy's independence in 
developing its budget request. The agreement supports this 
longstanding framework and encourages the Department to assess 
opportunities to improve coordination as appropriate. Further, 
the agreement strongly encourages better coordination between 
the Department and the National Nuclear Security Administration 
during its budget formulation process.
    Project Management.--Concerns remain with NNSA's ability to 
properly estimate costs and timelines for large projects. The 
NNSA is encouraged to assess current performance on projects 
costing more than $750,000,000, and to make appropriate project 
management changes. The agreement further encourages the NNSA 
to identify problems in cost and schedule estimates early, and 
to provide updated information to the Committees on 
Appropriations of both Houses of Congress in a timely manner.
    Integrated University Program.--The Secretary is directed 
to carry out the requirements of the Integrated University 
Program in support of university research and development in 
areas relevant to the NNSA's mission. Within available funds, 
the agreement provides not less than $5,000,000 for the 
Integrated University Program to cultivate the next generation 
of leaders in nonproliferation, nuclear security, and 
international security. The Department is directed to request 
funding for this program in future budget years. Funding for 
this program shall not come from prior year funds. The NNSA is 
directed to provide a report annually with the budget request 
that lists all the university programs requested, the 
recommended funding level, and the value that program provides 
the NNSA.

                           Weapons Activities

    The agreement provides $15,345,000,000 for Weapons

Joint Nuclear Weapons Lifecycle Process.
    The agreement reiterates direction included in the fiscal 
year 2020 Act concerning external peer review of non-nuclear 
components and subsystems.
    The agreement reiterates House direction regarding a 
briefing on domestic uranium enrichment. A separate control 
point is included for HEU downblending.
    W93 Modernization Activity.--The agreement includes funding 
for the initial studies to evaluate the W93 warhead. Prior to 
obligating funds, the NNSA, in coordination with the Department 
of Defense as necessary, shall brief the Committees on 
Appropriations of both Houses of Congress on the NNSA's plan to 
study and conduct the Phase 1 Concept Assessment. The plan 
shall include a timeline with projected milestones for 
completion. The NNSA shall ensure the Committees are apprised 
in a transparent and timely manner regarding the status of this 
activity. Upon completion of Phase 1 and prior to entering 
Phase 2, the NNSA shall brief the Committees on Appropriations 
of both Houses of Congress on the results of Phase I Concept 
Assessment. The W93 program provides a unique opportunity to 
influence the way the stockpile is managed in the future. The 
schedule for the Life Extension Programs (LEPs) currently 
underway is largely driven by obsolescence and the material 
condition of the warheads, which has created a bow wave with 
limited flexibility. The NNSA is encouraged to consider overall 
lifecycle costs and sustainment requirements for the warhead 
upfront and is directed to brief the Committees on 
Appropriations of both Houses of Congress quarterly on these 
efforts. The agreement also directs the NNSA to conduct an 
analysis of alternatives that specifically addresses ways of 
meeting design and manufacturing needs of allies that accounts 
for work completed as part of recent and ongoing LEPs and 
Alterations and to provide the analysis of alternatives not 
later than 180 days after enactment of this Act.
    B83 Sustainment.--The agreement provides not more than 
$30,795,000 and directs the NNSA to ensure the Committees on 
Appropriations of both Houses of Congress receive periodic and 
timely briefings concerning the status of sustainment efforts. 
Concerns persist about the feasibility of maintaining the B83-1 
in the stockpile without deferring key maintenance activities 
and at reduced funding levels. At the same time, there is 
concern that the continued retention of the B83-1 may 
necessitate eventual modifications to the warhead. Such 
modifications would compete for resources with other ongoing 
and planned nuclear weapons modernization and development 
efforts. Accordingly, the agreement directs NNSA, with the 
assistance of the Nuclear Weapons Council (NWC) if necessary, 
to report to the Committees on Appropriations of both Houses of 
Congress not later than 90 days of enactment of this Act on the 
following: current surveillance findings regarding the B83-1, 
to include the results of the past three annual assessments and 
any identified limitations of the weapon; the estimated cost to 
maintain the B83-1 beyond its originally planned retirement 
date and a discussion of potential schedule impacts to other 
weapons programs; a discussion of suitable replacements that 
the NWC has considered for the B83-1, to include the B61-12s or 
the B61-11s soon to be or already in the stockpile, as well as 
missile warheads. The agreement further directs that NNSA 
submit the report to the Comptroller General at the same time 
that it submits it to the Committees on Appropriations of both 
Houses of Congress, and that the Government Accountability 
Office review the report and brief the Committees on its 
observations not later than 90 days after receipt.

high-level milestones for projects based on GAO best practices. 
The NNSA is directed to continue to provide a clear breakout of 
costs for activities in future budget requests and to include 
in future budget requests a breakdown of manpower needs for pit 
production and all support functions. The agreement includes 
not less than $7,000,000 for workforce development and training 
for Historically Black Colleges and Universities, Hispanic 
Serving Institutions, and Tribal Colleges and Universities in 
South Carolina and New Mexico to support pit production. The 
agreement also includes $8,000,000 for next-generation 
machining and assembly technology development for high volume 
pit production.
    Pit and Plutonium Aging.--There is concern with the 
apparent lack of focus on advancing knowledge regarding pit and 
plutonium aging since the JASONs conducted its first study in 
2006. Given the future needs of the nation's nuclear deterrent, 
a robust program of research and experimentation is needed. 
Therefore, NNSA is directed to develop a comprehensive, 
integrated ten-year research program for pit and plutonium 
aging that represents a consensus program among the national 
laboratories and federal sponsors. Such a plan shall include 
estimated cost of ongoing research, new or upgraded capability 
needs, and key near-, mid-, and long-range milestones. The plan 
shall be submitted to the Committees on Appropriations of both 
Houses of Congress not later than 180 days after enactment of 
this Act.
    Purified Uranium.--Concerns persist that the NNSA's current 
plan is ahead of need and may not be the most efficient course 
of action. The agreement directs the NNSA to perform a business 
case analysis to include the capabilities of the national 
laboratories and plants to confirm the best value source is 
being used and to continue efforts to mature and deploy direct 
electrolytic reduction technology.

    The agreement provides $404,350,000 for the Federal Energy 
Regulatory Commission (FERC). Revenues for FERC are set to an 
amount equal to the budget authority, resulting in a net 
appropriation of $0.
    Interregional transmission planning is important to the 
effective deployment of renewable energy sources, and FERC is 
encouraged to undertake a review to evaluate the effectiveness 
of its existing interregional transmission coordination 
requirements and consider specific improvements to those 
requirements that would better promote the identification and 
development of more efficient and cost-effective transmission 
facilities and cost allocation methodologies that reflect the 
multiple benefits provided by interregional transmission 
facilities.
    FERC is encouraged to prioritize meaningful opportunities 
for public engagement and coordination with state and local 
governments in the federal permitting and review processes of 
energy infrastructure proposals. Specifically, review processes 
should remain transparent and consistent, and ensure the 
health, safety, and security of the environment and each 
affected community.
    Dam safety is a critical part of FERC's hydropower program 
and a shared responsibility with the states. FERC is encouraged 
to conduct a technical conference with the participation of 
states on the topic of improving dam safety.
    FERC is directed to submit to the Committees on 
Appropriations of both Houses of Congress not later than 180 
days after enactment of this Act a report detailing how it will 
establish and operate the Office of Public Participation 
required under section 319 of the Federal Power Act, beginning 
in fiscal year 2022. As part of the report, FERC shall provide 
an organizational structure and budget for the office 
sufficient to carry out its statutory obligations. The report 
shall assume that funding for the Office of Public 
Participation will be derived through annual charges and filing 
fees as authorized by the Federal Power Act and the Omnibus 
Budget Reconciliation Act of 1986.
    Interstate Pipeline Reliability.--On September 23, 2020, 
the Government Accountability Office (GAO) published a report,

    The agreement provides $830,900,000 for the Nuclear 
Regulatory Commission. This amount is offset by estimated 
revenues of $710,293,000, resulting in a net appropriation of 
$120,607,000.
    Unobligated Balances from Prior Appropriations and 
Reprogramming Guidelines.--The Commission carries unobligated 
balances from appropriations received in prior years. The

derived from fee-based activities. The Commission is directed 
to apply these savings in a manner that continues to ensure the 
protection of public health and safety and maintains the 
effectiveness of the current inspection program. Because the 
Commission has already collected fees corresponding to these 
activities in prior years, the agreement does not include these 
funds within the fee base calculation for determining 
authorized revenues and does not provide authority to collect

consistent with those guidelines.

Integrated University Program, of which, $5,500,000 shall be 
for grants to support research projects that do not align with 
programmatic missions but are critical to maintaining the 
discipline of nuclear science and engineering. Because the 
Commission has already collected fees corresponding to these 
activities in previous years, the agreement does not include 
these funds within the fee base calculation for determining 
authorized revenues and does not provide authority to collect 
additional offsetting receipts for their use.
    Accident Tolerant Fuels Program.--The agreement directs the 
Commission to submit to the Committees on Appropriations of 
both Houses of Congress not later than 180 days after the 
enactment of this Act a report on the preparedness for accident 
tolerant fuel licensing with a focus on what steps are being 
taken to ensure that licensing activities, including higher 
burnup and enrichment, support projected deployment schedules.
    Digital Technologies.--The agreement directs the Commission 
to provide to the Committees on Appropriations of both Houses 
of Congress not later than 30 days after the enactment of this 
Act a briefing on the progress of its efforts to enable safe 
and efficient design options that allow licensees to deploy 
digital technologies.
    Commission Workforce.--Not later than 30 days after the 
enactment of this Act, the Commission shall provide to the 
Committees on Appropriations of both Houses of Congress a 
briefing on its efforts to maintain its workforce, including

transfers provided in this Act or other appropriations Acts, 
and existing authorities, such as the Economy Act (31 U.S.C. 
1535), by which one part of the United States Government may 
provide goods or services to another part, this Act allows

    [Clerk's note.--Reproduced below is the material relating 
to division E contained in the Explanatory Statement regarding 
H.R. 133, the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2021.\1\]
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
    \1\ This Explanatory Statement was submitted for printing in the 
Congressional Record on
December 21, 2020 by Mrs. Lowey of New York, Chairwoman of the House 
Committee on Appropriations. The Statement appears on page H8436 of 
Book IV.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

 DIVISION E--FINANCIAL SERVICES AND GENERAL GOVERNMENT APPROPRIATIONS 
                               ACT, 2021

    The joint explanatory statement accompanying this division 
is approved and indicates Congressional intent. Unless 
otherwise noted, the language set forth in House Report 116-456 
carries the same weight as language included in this joint 
explanatory statement and should be complied with unless 
specifically addressed to the contrary in this joint 
explanatory statement. While some language is repeated for 
emphasis, it is not intended to negate the language referred to 
above unless expressly provided herein.
    Reports.--Where the House has directed submission of a 
report, that report is to be submitted to the Committees on 
Appropriations of the House and Senate. Agencies funded by this 
Act that currently provide separate copies of periodic reports 
and correspondence to the chairs and ranking members of the 
House and Senate Appropriations Committees and Subcommittees on 
Financial Services and General Government are directed to use a 
single cover letter jointly addressed to the chairs and ranking 
members of the Committees and Subcommittees of both the House 
and the Senate. To the greatest extent feasible, agencies 
should include in the cover letter a reference or hyperlink to 
facilitate electronic access to the report and provide the 
documents by electronic mail delivery. These measures will help 
reduce costs, conserve paper, expedite agency processing, and 
ensure that consistent information is conveyed concurrently to 
the majority and minority committee offices of both chambers of 
Congress.
    Federal Law Protections for Religious Liberty.--On October 
6, 2017, the Attorney General issued a memorandum to all 
executive departments and agencies titled, ``Federal Law 
Protections for Religious Liberty.'' The guidance states, ``to 
the greatest extent practicable and permitted by law, religious 
observance and practice should be reasonably accommodated in 
all government activity, including [but not limited to] 
employment, contracting, and programming. The following twenty 
principles should guide administrative agencies and executive 
departments in carrying out this task. These principles should 
be understood and interpreted in light of the legal analysis 
set forth in the appendix to this memorandum.'' Within 90 days 
of the enactment of this Act, each agency and executive 
department funded by this Act is directed to report to the 
Committees on how this guidance has been implemented. This 
report should include any guidance, rulemaking and policy 
updates issued by the agency or department. The report should 
also include details on how this has influenced their 
employment, contracts, grants, and programs.
    Federal Law Enforcement.--The agreement notes that the 
explanatory statement accompanying the Commerce, Justice, 
Science, and Related Agencies Appropriations Act, 2021 directs 
the Attorney General to ensure implementation of evidence-based 
training programs on de-escalation and the use-of-force, as 
well as on police-community relations, that are broadly 
applicable and scalable to all Federal law enforcement 
agencies. The agreement further notes that several agencies 
funded by this Act employ Federal law enforcement officers and 
are Federal Law Enforcement Training Centers partner 
organizations. The agreement directs such agencies to consult 
with the Attorney General regarding the implementation of these 
programs for their law enforcement officers. The agreement 
further directs such agencies to brief the Committees on 
Appropriations on their efforts relating to such implementation 
no later than 90 days after consultation with the Attorney 
General. In addition, the agreement directs such agencies, to 
the extent that they are not already participating, to consult 
with the Attorney General and the Director of the FBI regarding 
participation in the National Use-of-Force Data Collection. The 
agreement further directs such agencies to brief the Committees 
on Appropriations, no later than 90 days after enactment of 
this Act, on their current efforts to so participate.
    Nondiscrimination Report.--The agreement does not include 
reporting requirements on discrimination in this bill and 
instead includes a similar requirement in the agreement 
accompanying the Commerce, Justice, and Science bill.

                                TITLE I

    Savings Bonds.--The agreement notes deep concerns that tens

Treasury Department has not taken sufficient action to reunite 
bondholders or to provide the appropriate State agencies with 
the necessary information for owners to redeem their unclaimed 
bonds. Therefore, the agreement continues all directives 
adopted by the joint explanatory statement accompanying 
division C of the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2020 (Public 
Law 116-93) relating to savings bonds.

TFI to continue to identify and investigate the illicit trade 
of synthetic opioids, particularly fentanyl, originating from 
China, in order to verify that China is upholding its 
commitments. Within 120 days of enactment of this Act, the 
Department is directed to report to the Committees on its 
utilization of existing authorities to disrupt the illicit 
trade and financing of synthetic opioids originating from 
China, the use of online networks and Internet platforms on 
both the dark web and surface web to finance the movement of

program to credit-worthy CDFIs. The agreement adopts the House 
reporting requirements on high-poverty communities and minimum 
bond size.
    Impact of Fiscal Year 2018 CDFI Awardees.--The Secretary is 
directed to report to the Committees within 90 days of 
enactment of this Act on the impact fiscal year 2018 CDFI Fund 
awardees are having in the communities they serve.

take into consideration the unique conditions, challenges, and 
scale of non-metropolitan and rural areas when designing 
programs to address economic revitalization and community 
development. The agreement requires the CDFI Fund to fund a 
geographically diverse group of award recipients, including 
those from non-metropolitan and rural areas. Additionally, the

days of enactment of this Act on how CDFI Programs recipients

explanatory statement accompanying division C of the

elimination of improper payments an utmost priority and 
implement within 270 days of enactment of this Act all open and 
unimplemented recommendations from TIGTA and GAO that address 
improper payments, or report to the Committees on impediments 
to the implementation of each open recommendation. This report 
shall include the dollar value of improper payments, as

Community Volunteer Income Tax Assistance Matching Grants 
Program.
    Rural Service Delivery Issues.--The IRS has been plagued by 
significant wait times and deteriorating rate of responses for 
assistance provided through the national toll-free line. It is 
more imperative than ever that the IRS offer personal and local 
assistance to American taxpayers. There is concern that the 
actions taken by the IRS and the proposed ``Future State'' of 
service leave rural taxpayers reliant on paid preparers or 
unable to obtain timely and accurate assistance with pre- and 
post-filing questions. The IRS must do more to address the 
needs of rural taxpayers by ensuring that they have the ability 
to reach local taxpayer assistance services.
    Taxpayer Services in Alaska and Hawaii.--The IRS is 
directed to continue to staff each Taxpayer Advocate Service 
Center (TAC) in Alaska and Hawaii with a Collection Technical 
Advisor and an examination technical advisor in addition to the 
current complement of office staff. Additionally, IRS is 
directed to report to the Committees within 180 days of 
enactment of this Act on current face-to-face taxpayer services 
offered in Alaska and Hawaii and on the delivery service 
benefits of appointment versus walk-in service, cost options to 
improve service, and potential increase in the number of TACs 
in these States.
    Identity Protection Personal Identification Number (IP PIN) 
Expansion.--The agreement recognizes that the IP PIN pilot 
program is an important tool for saving taxpayer money and 
commends the IRS for continuing to expand the pilot program to 
additional States, and encourages further expansion as soon as 
possible.
    Low Income Tax Clinic.--The IRS is directed to conduct 
outreach to determine how to increase Low Income Tax Clinic 
grantees in States that don't have a grantee. The report should 
assess why there are no successful grantees as well as include 
recommendations on how to enable new grant applications in 
these States. Within 120 days of enactment of this Act, the IRS 
shall report to the Committees on why there are no successful 
grantees in certain States and include recommendations on how 
to enable new grant applications in these States.

up to $15,000,000 is for investigative technology for the 
Criminal Investigation Division, to support their critical law

    Enforcement Efforts and Money Laundering Investigations.--
The IRS is urged to increase the number of Special Agents in 
the Criminal Investigations unit responsible for investigating 
money laundering, violations of the Bank Secrecy Act and 
criminal violations of the tax code, in order to provide the 
necessary law enforcement personnel to solidify U.S. efforts to

    The bill provides $100,000,000 for salaries and expenses of 
the Office of Administration, of which not more than 
$12,800,000 is for information technology modernization.

             Presidential Transition Administrative Support


                     (INCLUDING TRANSFER OF FUNDS)

                    Office of Management and Budget


                         SALARIES AND EXPENSES

    The bill provides $106,600,000 for the salaries and 
expenses of the Office of Management and Budget (OMB).
    Regulatory Management Modernization.--As OMB undertakes 
efforts to modernize its internal regulatory management, the 
agreement encourages OMB to increase technological utilization

administrative process requirements.

    The bill provides $18,400,000 for salaries and expenses of 
the Office of National Drug Control Policy (ONDCP).
    There are concerns that the continued lack of a formal 
process through which the Director may designate an emerging 
drug threat, in accordance with section 709(c) of the Office of 
National Drug Control Policy Reauthorization Act of 1998, may 
limit the ability of the Federal Government to take the steps 
necessary to address emerging drug trends before they reach 
epidemic proportions. ONDCP shall expeditiously finalize and 
implement regulations to establish the criteria and process 
through which to formally designate an emerging drug threat in 
the United States. Given the rapid increase in deaths 
associated with methamphetamine use, ONDCP should consider 
formally designating methamphetamine as an emerging threat in 
accordance with section 709(d) of the Office of National Drug 
Control Policy Reauthorization Act of 1998 (21 U.S.C. 1708(d)).

                     Federal Drug Control Programs


             HIGH INTENSITY DRUG TRAFFICKING AREAS PROGRAM

                     (INCLUDING TRANSFERS OF FUNDS)

    The bill provides $290,000,000 for the High Intensity Drug 
Trafficking Areas Program (HIDTA).
    ONDCP is directed to consult with the HIDTAs in advance of 
deciding programmatic spending allocations for discretionary 
(supplemental) funding, taking particular note of areas with 
the highest rates of overdose deaths.
    Opioid Addiction.--As prescription drug monitoring programs 
reduce illicit access to prescription drugs, those struggling 
with substance abuse disorders who are no longer able to obtain 
or afford prescription opioids often turn to heroin and other 
opioids. The agreement notes the prevalence of opioid addiction 
and the resultant increase in trafficking of and addiction to 
heroin and other emergent threats such as fentanyl. ONDCP, in 
consultation with the HIDTA Directors, is encouraged to 
prioritize discretionary funds to aid States that have 
identified heroin and opioid addiction as an emergent threat, 
and have developed and implemented community responses to 
combat addiction to heroin and other opioids. ONDCP and HIDTAs 
enable necessary coordination of law enforcement efforts and 
support for State and local law enforcement, and must continue 
to play a significant role in the eradication of heroin and 
prescription drug diversion.

                  OTHER FEDERAL DRUG CONTROL PROGRAMS

                     (INCLUDING TRANSFERS OF FUNDS)

    The bill provides $128,182,000 for Other Federal Drug 
Control Programs. The agreement allocates funds among specific 
programs as follows:

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

    World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) Governance.--The increased 
prevalence of doping fraud among international sports 
federations and governments raises serious concerns about the 
WADA's credibility, independence, and accountability to 
athletes. The agreement supports ONDCP's efforts to monitor and 
advance WADA's reform efforts. The bill includes language to 
allow ONDCP to exercise discretion in providing annual 
membership dues to encourage necessary reforms within WADA and 
to determine whether WADA is making sufficient progress in 
increasing its independence and transparency. The amount of the 
United States' membership dues payment, or lack thereof, should 
be linked to WADA's progress in reducing undue influence by 
sports organizations with a direct financial interest in WADA 
decisions as well as increasing the number of independent 
athlete and independent anti-doping stakeholder representatives 
on WADA's committees and decision-making bodies. Increasing 
American representation on WADA decision-making bodies could 
help achieve these goals.

                             Federal Funds

    Death with Dignity.--Congress has expressly forbidden the 
use of Federal funding for purposes related to assisted suicide 
under the Assisted Suicide Funding Restriction Act of 1997 
(Public Law 105-12). There are concerns that the Death with 
Dignity Act of 2016 (D.C. Law 21-182) puts our Nation's most 
vulnerable people who are elderly, disabled, or fighting mental 
illness at risk. As such, the Chief Financial Officer for the 
District of Columbia shall submit a report to the Committees to 
certify that no Federal funds are used to implement D.C. Law 
21-182 in the District of Columbia in contravention of existing 
law. The District shall also report to the Committees on 
Appropriations on the number of lethal prescriptions prescribed

on the death certificate.

Pool and Spa Safety Act.
    Furniture Flammability Standards.--The agreement continues 
the direction provided to CPSC in fiscal year 2020 in Senate 
Report 116-111 regarding Furniture Flammability Standards.
    Organohalogen Flame Retardants.--The Commission should 
consider the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and 
Medicine's report regarding a scoping plan for addressing 
organohalogen flame retardants in response to the granted 
petition to adopt mandatory standards under the Federal 
Hazardous Substances Act to protect consumers from health 
hazards caused by the use of non-polymeric, additive form, 
organohalogen flame retardants in children's products, 
furniture, mattresses, and the casings surrounding electronics, 
including proposals to consider certain subcategories when 
determining any safe, allowable uses.
    Furniture Tip-Overs.--Furniture tip-overs, particularly 
those involving televisions and dressers, remain a serious risk 
to children and consumers. The Commission is urged to continue 
to engage with industry, consumer groups, and the public to 
increase efforts to limit or mitigate the risk associated with 
furniture tip-overs.
    Data Analytics.--The Commission collects and analyzes a 
wide range of data from a variety of sources for factual basis 
to identify hazards to consumers. The agreement supports the 
Commission's efforts to develop an agency-wide data management 
and analytics strategy and hiring or designating a Chief Data 
Officer or Chief Technologist within the enacted full-time 
equivalent level.

explanation of expenditures, including contracts and grants, 
and use of the EAC funding transferred to NIST (including 
enumeration of funds); and (4) an explanation of how the work 
accomplished relates to mandated activities under HAVA. 
Finally, the Executive Director of EAC and the Director of NIST 
shall work together to set priorities for the work outlined in 
order to meet timelines.

                   Federal Communications Commission


                         SALARIES AND EXPENSES

    The bill provides $341,000,000 for salaries and expenses of 
the Federal Communications Commission (FCC). In addition, 
$33,000,000 is provided for implementing the Broadband DATA Act 
(Public Law 116-130). The bill provides that $374,000,000 be 
derived from offsetting collections, resulting in no net 
appropriation.
    Broadband Maps.--In addition to adopting the House report 
language on Broadband Maps, the agreement provides substantial 
dedicated resources for the FCC to implement the Broadband DATA 
Act. The FCC is directed to submit a report to the Committees 
on Appropriations within 90 days of enactment of this Act 
providing a detailed spending plan for these resources. In 
addition, the FCC, in coordination with the NTIA, shall outline 
the specific roles and responsibilities of each agency as it 
relates to the National Broadband Map and implementation of the 
Broadband DATA Act. The FCC is directed to report in writing to 
the Committees every 30 days on the date, amount, and purpose 
of any new obligation made for broadband mapping and any 
updates to the broadband mapping spending plan.
    Lifeline Service.--In lieu of the House report language on 
Lifeline Service, the agreement notes recent action by the FCC 
to partially waive its rules updating the Lifeline program's 
minimum service standard for mobile broadband usage in light of 
the large increase to the standard that would have gone into 
effect on Dec. 1, 2020, and the increased reliance byAmericans 
on mobile broadband as a result of the pandemic. The FCC is urged to 
continue to balance the Lifeline program's goals of accessibility and 
affordability.
    Low Power FM.--Low Power FM (LPFM) represents an important 
medium for members of local communities to access relevant, 
locally produced information. In particular, Low Power FM could 
be a powerful educational tool for sharing information on 
public health with communities at-risk who lack access to other 
media, on issues such as addiction treatment and prevention, 
infectious disease, or other emerging health threats. The 
agreement understands some entities with LPFM licenses are 
silent or not operating, but it is not clear how many licensed 
LPFM stations are not currently broadcasting an over-the-air 
signal. The agreement directs the FCC to report to the 
Committee on how it tracks silent LPFM stations or unused 
spectrum in the FM band and the steps it is taking to 
reallocate such spectrum to interested entities, including 
plans for upcoming filing windows for construction permits for 
new LPFM stations.
    Broadband in Remote and Insular Communities.--The agreement 
notes concern that many Americans live in remote and insular 
communities such as those in Alaska that do not have access to 
broadband services. The result is that these Americans, their 
schools, their libraries, and their health care providers have 
either no broadband access or access only at rates 
substantially higher than available to most Americans. Within 
120 days, the FCC is directed to report to the Committees on 
its plans to consider support for broadband access to these 
geographically disbursed communities.
    Small Cell Construction.--The FCC is directed to report to 
the Committees on the Commission's rules concerning the 
construction and deployment of small cells and the Commission's 
application of relevant statutes.
    5G Fund and Rural America.--The agreement remains concerned 
about the feasible deployment of 5G in rural America. Rural 
locations will likely run into geographic barriers and 
infrastructure issues preventing the robust deployment of 5G 
technology, just as they have faced with 4G. The FCC's proposed 
5G Fund fails to provide adequate details or a targeted spend 
plan on creating seamless coverage in the most rural parts of 
the Nation. Given these concerns, the FCC is directed to report 
in writing on: (1) its current and future plans for 
prioritizing deployment of 4G coverage in rural areas, (2) its 
plans for 5G deployment in rural areas, and (3) its plan for 
improving the mapping and long-term tracking of coverage in 
rural areas.
    Enforcement of Overstated Coverage.--The agreement remains 
concerned about the ongoing issues of overstated coverage maps 
that suspended the Mobility Fund Phase II. Specifically, the 
agreement is concerned about the lack of enforcement action 
that came from the investigation into potential violations of 
the Mobility Fund Phase II mapping rules by carriers. Given 
these concerns, the FCC is directed to submit a report to the 
Committees within 90 days of enactment of this Act on: (1) the 
criteria used to determine if a carrier was found in violation 
of mapping rules and overstating coverage and (2) the criteria 
used to determine enforcement action or fines.
    Wireless Resiliency During Disasters.--The agreement 
remains concerned about the resiliency of wireless phone 
service during natural disasters, including wildfires. The FCC 
is directed to report within 180 days of enactment of this Act 
on the type of safety measures that wireless carriers have for 
their customers.
    6 Gigahertz.--As the FCC has authorized unlicensed use of 
the 6 gigahertz band, the agreement expects the Commission to 
ensure its plan does not result in harmful interference to 
incumbent users or impact critical infrastructure 
communications systems. The agreement is particularly concerned 
about the potential effects on the reliability of the electric 
transmission and distribution system. The agreement expects the 
FCC to ensure any mitigation technologies are rigorously tested 
and found to be effective in order to protect the electric 
transmission system. The FCC is directed to provide a report to 
the Committees within 90 days of enactment of this Act on its 
progress in ensuring rigorous testing related to unlicensed use 
of the 6 gigahertz band.
    Rural Broadband.--The agreement remains concerned that far 
too many Americans living in rural and economically 
disadvantaged areas lack access to broadband at speeds 
necessary to fully participate in the Internet age. The 
agreement encourages the agency to prioritize projects in 
underserved areas, where the infrastructure to be installed 
provides access at download and upload speeds comparable to 
those available to Americans in urban areas. The agreement 
encourages the FCC to avoid efforts that could duplicate 
existing networks and to support deployment of last-mile 
broadband infrastructure to underserved areas. Further, the 
agreement encourages the agency to prioritize projects financed 
through public-private partnerships.
    Contraband Cell Phones.--The agreement notes continued 
concern regarding the exploitation of contraband cell phones in 
prisons and jails nationwide. The agreement urges the FCC to 
act on the March 24, 2017 Further Notice of Proposed Rulemaking 
regarding combating contraband wireless devices. The FCC should 
consider all legally permissible options, including the 
creation, or use, of ``quiet or no service zones,'' 
geolocation-based denial, and beacon technologies to 
geographically appropriate correctional facilities. In 
addition, the agreement encourages the FCC to adopt a rules-
based approach to cellphone disabling that would require 
immediate disabling by a wireless carrier upon proper 
identification of a contraband device. The agreement recommends 
that the FCC move forward with its suggestion in the Fiscal 
Year 2019 report to this Committee, noting that ``additional 
field testing of jamming technology will provide a better 
understanding of the challenges and costs associated with the 
proper deployment of jamming system.'' The agreement urges the 
FCC to use available funds to coordinate rigorous Federal 
testing of jamming technology and coordinate with all relevant 
stakeholders to effectively address this urgent problem.
    Next-Generation Broadband Networks for Rural America.--
Deployment of broadband and telecommunications services in 
rural areas is imperative to support economic growth and public 
safety. However, due to geographical challenges facing mobile 
connectivity and fiber providers, connectivity in certain areas 
remains challenging. Next generation satellite-based technology 
is being developed to deliver direct satellite to cellular 
capability. The FCC is encouraged to address potential 
regulatory hurdles, to promote private sector development and 
implementation of innovative, next generation networks such as 
this, and to accelerate broadband and telecommunications access 
to all Americans.
    911 Fees.--The New and Emerging Technologies 911 
Improvement Act of 2008 (NET 911 Act) requires the Commission 
to submit an annual report to Congress on the collection and 
distribution of 911 and Enhanced 911 (E911) fees and charges by 
States. As part of the annual review, the NET 911 Act requires 
the Commission to report whether 911 fees and charges collected 
by States are being used for any purpose other than to support 
911 and E911 services. The agreement encourages the FCC to work 
with State partners to better clarify the definition of fee 
diversion.

      ADMINISTRATIVE PROVISIONS--FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION

    Section 510 extends an exemption from the Antideficiency 
Act for the Universal Service Fund.
    Section 511 prohibits the FCC from changing rules governing 
the USF regarding single connection or primary line 
restrictions.

                 Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation


                    OFFICE OF THE INSPECTOR GENERAL

    The bill provides a transfer of $42,982,000 to fund the 
Office of Inspector General (OIG) for the Federal Deposit 
Insurance Corporation. The OIG's appropriations are derived 
from the Deposit Insurance Fund and the Federal Savings and 
Loan Insurance Corporation Resolution Fund.

                      Federal Election Commission


                         SALARIES AND EXPENSES

    The bill provides $71,497,000 for salaries and expenses of 
the Federal Election Commission.
    Online Campaign Advertisements.--In lieu of the House 
report language, the Commission is directed to brief the House 
and Senate Committees on Appropriations on its rulemaking 
proposals related to disclaimers on public communications on 
the internet within 90 days of enactment of this Act.

                   Federal Labor Relations Authority


                         SALARIES AND EXPENSES

                     (INCLUDING TRANSFER OF FUNDS)

    The bill provides $10,000,000 for the Federal Permitting 
Improvement Steering Council's Environmental Review Improvement 
Fund.

                        Federal Trade Commission


                         SALARIES AND EXPENSES

    The bill provides $351,000,000 for salaries and expenses of 
the Federal Trade Commission (FTC). This appropriation is 
partially offset by premerger filing and Telemarketing Sales 
Rule fees estimated at $150,000,000 and $19,000,000, 
respectively.
    Consolidation and Competition in Health Care.--The 
agreement notes concern that consolidation among providers and 
insurers in the healthcare sector is leading to higher prices 
for American families and taxpayers. The agreement encourages 
the Commission to review, investigate, and challenge, where 
appropriate, mergers in the healthcare sector. The agreement 
also encourages the Commission to study barriers to entry for 
new providers and insurers and to conduct retrospective reviews 
of past mergers to determine the impacts those mergers have had 
on prices.
    Resources for Data Privacy and Security.--The agreement 
urges the FTC to conduct a comprehensive internal assessment 
measuring the agency's current efforts related to data privacy 
and security while separately identifying all resource-based 
needs of the FTC to improve in these areas. The agreement also 
urges the FTC to provide a report describing the assessment's 
findings to the Committees within 180 days of enactment of this 
Act.

                    General Services Administration


                        REAL PROPERTY ACTIVITIES

                         FEDERAL BUILDINGS FUND

                 LIMITATIONS ON AVAILABILITY OF REVENUE

                     (INCLUDING TRANSFER OF FUNDS)

    The bill provides resources from the General Services 
Administration (GSA) Federal Buildings Fund totaling 
$9,065,489,000.
    Old Post Office Lease Agreement.--In lieu of the House 
report directive captioned Old Post Office Lease Agreement, the 
agreement notes the findings of GSA's Office of Inspector 
General report JE19-002 and its recommendations.
    Lake Charles Courthouse.--Hurricane Laura inflicted 
extensive damage on the Edwin F. Hunter, Jr. U.S. Courthouse in 
Lake Charles, Louisiana. No later than 150 days after enactment 
of this Act, GSA, in consultation with the Federal Judiciary, 
is directed to submit to the Committees an updated housing plan 
and cost estimate for a new Federal Courthouse in Lake Charles, 
Louisiana, that fully meets the operational needs of the 
Federal courts and is approved by the U.S. District Court for 
the Western District of Louisiana.
    Federal Bureau of Investigation Headquarters 
Consolidation.--No later than 90 days after enactment of this 
Act, GSA shall transmit to the House and Senate Committees on 
Appropriations, the Committee on Transportation and 
Infrastructure of the House of Representatives, and the 
Committee on Environment and Public Works of the Senate, a 
report on the construction of a new headquarters for the 
Federal Bureau of Investigation in the National Capital Region. 
The report transmitted shall be consistent with the 
requirements of section3307(b) of title 40, United States Code 
and include a summary of the material provisions of the construction 
and full consolidation of the Federal Bureau of Investigation in a new 
headquarters facility, including all the costs associated with site 
acquisition, design, management, and inspection, and a description of 
all buildings and infrastructure needed to complete the project.
    Premium Class Travel.--Concerns remain about excessive 
spending on premium-class airline tickets for government 
employees. GSA is directed to provide to the Committees the 
department and agency travel data compiled pursuant to 41 
C.F.R. Part 300-70, Subpart B.
    The National Archives at Seattle.--There are significant 
concerns surrounding potential closure of the National Archives 
and Records Administration's Sand Point facility. The archival 
records and Federal records stored at the facility hold 
significant value to individuals and organizations, including 
State agencies, higher education institutions, researchers, 
scientists, Tribal members, and students. There is language 
directed to the National Archives and Records Administration 
addressing this issue. In addition, GSA is directed to brief 
the Committees within 90 days of enactment of this Act on its 
leaseback authority in relation to Public Building Reform Board 
recommendations and the agency requirements at the Sand Point 
facility.
    Payroll Services.--In addition to adopting the House report 
language on shared services, the agreement continues all 
directives adopted by the joint explanatory statement 
accompanying division C of the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 
2020 (Public Law 116-93) relating to shared services.
    Farm Service Agency State Office Relocation.--The U.S. 
Department of Agriculture's Farm Service Agency (FSA) provides 
services and delivers results to America's farmers and 
ranchers. There are FSA headquarters offices located in each 
State as well as in counties across the U.S. However, there are 
concerns with recent actions taken by FSA and GSA to 
potentially move State offices from current locations, which 
provide convenient access for employees and customers, to 
facilities miles away with parking limitations and higher rent. 
There are particular concerns given the impact to farmers, 
ranchers, and FSA outreach. GSA is encouraged to reach an 
agreement with all parties so FSA can remain in existing 
locations when local farm communities are strongly opposed to 
such a move.
    Dirksen Courthouse.--The Dirksen Courthouse in Chicago is 
adjacent to vacant federally-owned buildings that are in 
critical disrepair. Any potential disposal or development of 
these properties should not result in increased security risks 
for the Court and other Federal agencies in the courthouse. GSA 
is commended for recent efforts to involve stakeholders in 
discussion to address the State Street properties in Chicago 
and encourages GSA to further engage relevant Federal 
stakeholders and the City of Chicago to determine appropriate 
solutions for the State Street properties. GSA is expected to 
provide advance notice to and consult with the Committees 
before taking any actions with respect to the potential 
disposal or development of these properties.
    Building Occupancy and Data Technology.--The Public 
Buildings Service's efforts to develop new tools, reports, and 
system enhancements to identify assets that can be more 
effectively utilized are applauded. In particular, the use of 
commercially available technology that provides accurate, 
building occupancy data in real time analytics while not 
violating security and privacy could deliver insights into the 
agency's work on footprint optimization and space utilization 
while identifying significant cost savings. GSA is encouraged 
to evaluate the deployment of this technology across the leased 
and owned Federal real estate portfolio.
    White Oak Expansion.--There is awareness that the Food and 
Drug Administration's (FDA's) growing staff will require 
leasing additional office locations until the 2018 Federal 
Research Center Master Plan for the White Oak Campus expansion 
can be fully implemented. To determine the lowest cost 
technically acceptable for a prospectus lease, GSA should 
consider the effect of local travel on FDA staff productivity, 
adjacency to existing FDA leases, and the cost of lost 
productivity when evaluating the costs of lease proposals.
    Department of Veterans Affairs Leases.--GSA is directed to 
report, within 90 days of enactment of this Act, on their 
efforts to execute lease procurement projects authorized by the 
VA Choice and Quality Employment Act of 2017.
    Construction and Acquisition.--The bill provides 
$230,000,000 for construction and acquisition.

Basic Repairs and Alterations..................             $372,673,000
------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Five-Year Capital Plan.--GSA is directed to include a five-
year capital plan by project as part of its annual budget 
justification in fiscal year 2022. As in such plans included in 
previous GSA budget justifications, the plan should include the 
fiscal year, project name, city, state, project type, project 
description, prior funding to date, additional funding 
required, and estimated project total.
    Special Emphasis Projects.--$203,908,000 is provided for 
Major Repairs and Alterations, and $372,673,000 is provided for 
Basic Repairs and Alterations. While no funding is provided 
specifically for Special Emphasis Programs, the agreement notes 
that Special Emphasis projects are eligible for funding from 
within Major Repairs if the project cost is above prospectus 
level and from within Basic Repairs if the project cost is 
below prospectus level. GSA is encouraged to submit detailed 
Fire Protection and Life Safety Program projects if necessary 
and request a transfer for critical projects if appropriate.
    Energy Savings Performance Contracts.--Greater use of 
Energy Savings Performance Contracts (ESPCs) is encouraged in 
GSA's portfolio to help reduce the building repair backlog, 
including upgrades that can help improve resiliency and 
cybersecurity. GSA is encouraged to use at least $15,000,000 
within available funds for this purpose. GSA should consider 
the use of ESPCs when formulating future budget requests for 
repair projects and GSA project managers are encouraged to 
share project information with each other which can help 
identify opportunities to promote the use of ESPCs through 
collaboration. There are also concerns with the findings in the 
GSA Inspector General (GSA IG) report released on March 17, 
2020, entitled ``PBS's $1.7 Billion Energy Savings Performance 
Contracts Are Not Achieving Energy and Cost Savings Due to 
Inadequate Oversight'' and it is recommended that GSA implement 
the GSA IG's recommendations in the report.
    Rental of Space.--The bill provides $5,725,464,000 for 
rental of space.
    Building Operations.--The bill provides $2,533,444,000 for 
building operations.

                           GENERAL ACTIVITIES

                         GOVERNMENT-WIDE POLICY

    The bill provides $64,000,000 for GSA government-wide 
policy activities.
    DotGov Program.--The ``.gov'' domain, managed by GSA, was 
established to make it easy to identify U.S. Government 
websites on the Internet. Use of this domain signifies trust 
and credibility, and there are security benefits associated 
with a ``.gov'' domain, such as two-factor authentication. The 
agreement supports GSA's efforts to help ensure that citizens 
are interacting with official government websites. GSA is 
directed to report to the Committees no later than 120 days 
after enactment of this Act on additional steps that could be 
taken to increase adoption of ``.gov'' domains for State and 
local governments.
    Automobile Recalls.--The agreement urges the Administrator 
of General Services not to sell any motor vehicle or item of 
replacement equipment for a motor vehicle if the auto 
manufacturer has provided GSA a notification that the vehicle 
contains a defect related to motor vehicle safety or does not 
comply with an applicable motor vehicle safety standard where a 
remedy is available.
    Brooks Act.--GSA is directed to not award or facilitate the

    The bill provides $377,000,000 for the operating expenses 
of the National Archives and Records Administration (NARA). Of 
this amount, $9,230,000 shall remain available until expended 
for improvements necessary to enhance the Federal Government's 
ability to electronically preserve, manage, and store 
Government records, and up to $2,000,000 shall remain available 
until expended to implement the Civil Rights Cold Case Records

$18,000,000 to carry out NARA's transition responsibilities 
under the Presidential Records Act of 1978.
    Digitization of Records.--It is profoundly disappointing 
that NARA has failed to keep its commitment to digitize and 
post online using an easy-to-find, navigable, and searchable 
platform the Territorial and Federal records generated in 
Alaska since they were moved from Anchorage to Seattle more 
than 5 years ago. As a result, NARA's failures have seriously 
jeopardized the agreement's faith in other commitments that 
NARA has made. NARA is directed to continue consulting with 
Alaska Native Tribes and Tribal organizations, Alaskan 
historical societies, the State of Alaska, university libraries 
and archives, and other stakeholders to update its 
understanding of which records have been identified as 
priorities for access and the most effective methods of 
maintaining meaningful access to those records. Further, NARA 
is directed to submit a report to the Committees, within 120 
days of enactment of this Act, detailing its full and robust 
consultations and its plan to digitize, index, and post online 
the records identified as priorities by Alaskans. Further, NARA 
is directed to report to the Committees any challenges that 
inhibit NARA's ability to digitize and post online those 
records that have been identified as priorities by Alaskan 
stakeholders that have personally identifiable information such 
as Social Security numbers and require redaction. Lastly, NARA 
is directed to promptly notify the Committees of unforeseen 
obstacles or resource constraints that adversely impacts this 
initiative.
    Sand Point.--There are significant concerns surrounding the 
potential closure of NARA's Sand Point, Washington, facility. 
The archival records and Federal records stored at the facility 
hold significant value to individuals and organizations, 
including State agencies, higher education institutions, 
researchers, scientists, Tribal members, and students. NARA is 
directed to consult with the General Services Administration 
(GSA), the Public Buildings Reform Board (PBRB), and the State 
of Washington in the ongoing discussions regarding the 
digitization of archival and Federal records currently stored 
at NARA's facility in Sand Point or their relocation to an 
existing or planned facility owned by the State of Washington. 
NARA, in consultation with GSA and PBRB, shall submit to the 
Committees within 180 days of enactment of this Act a report on 
the feasibility of digitization and/or co-location of NARA 
materials in an existing or planned facility, the amount of 
funding that would be necessary, and any potential barriers to 
co-location. The report should also include a comparison of the 
digitization and co-location alternatives and identify a 
preferred alternative.

from all over the country. The agreement will continue to 
monitor project developments to ensure infrastructure repairs 
needs identified throughout the course of the project are

provides at least $9,000,000 to remain available until expended 
for OPM to improve information technology infrastructure 
modernization and the Trust Fund Federal Financial System 
migration or modernization.
    Additional funding is provided above the request to address 
OPM's common services gap and IT modernization needs.
    IT Modernization.--OPM is directed to continue to provide 
quarterly briefings to the Committees on its IT transformation 
and cybersecurity strategy.
    Treatment of Multi-County Micropolitan Statistical Areas.--
OPM is directed to provide a detailed report within 60 days of 
enactment of this Act on why multi-county micropolitan 
statistical areas aren't treated as multi-county metropolitan 
statistical areas for the purpose of calculating eligibility 
for locality pay, including the criteria OPM would view as 
necessary for such equal treatment to occur. Further, OPM shall 
brief the Committees on this matter no later than 90 days after 
enactment of this Act.
    Responsiveness to Congress.--OPM is expected to fully 
comply with information requests from the Committees. In 
instances when information or reports are deemed agency-
sensitive, OPM is expected to be transparent and work 
collectively with the Committees to ensure that Congress has 
access to information critical to its functions.

no less than $16,313,000 for the Office of Inspector General. 
In addition, another $18,650,000 and $12,677,000 is provided 
for move, replication, and related costs associated with 
replacement leases for the Commission's District of Columbia

facilities, respectively. All funds are derived from offsetting 
collections, resulting in no net appropriation.
    Climate Change Risks to Municipal Bond Markets.--The 
agreement does not adopt the House report directive on state 
and local municipal bond markets.
    Reserve Fund Notifications.--The SEC's adherence to its 
obligation to notify Congress of the date, amount, and purpose 
of any obligation from the Reserve Fund within 10 days of such 
obligation is appreciated. The SEC is directed, in its written 
notifications to Congress required by 15 U.S.C. 78d(i)(3), to 
specify: (1) the balance in the fund remaining available after 
the obligation is deducted; (2) the estimated total cost of the 
project for which amounts are being deducted; (3) the total 
amount for all projects that have withdrawn funding from the 
fund since fiscal year 2012; and (4) the estimated amount, per 
project, that will be required to complete all ongoing projects 
which use funding derived from the fund. The SEC is also 
directed to submit, within 30 days of enactment of this Act, a 
detailed spending plan for the allocation of expenditures from 
the fund.
    Municipal Securities Rulemaking Board.--The agreement notes 
deep concerns by apparent profligacy at the Municipal 
Securities Rulemaking Board (MSRB), a ``self-regulatory 
organization'' established by Congress and overseen by the SEC.

the MSRB to curtail its penchant for prodigal behavior.

                        Selective Service System

                     Small Business Administration


                         SALARIES AND EXPENSES

    The bill provides $270,157,000 for salaries and expenses of 
the Small Business Administration (SBA). The agreement includes 
at least $12,000,000 for the SBA's Office of Credit Risk 
Management (OCRM) for lender oversight and risk-based reviews. 
Funding for the Office of General Counsel is provided 
separately from this total. OCRM must play a key role in 
eliminating waste, fraud, and abuse in the SBA lending programs 
and protecting taxpayer losses on loans by ensuring lenders 
comply with procedures that mitigate the risk of loss under the 
SBA's loan programs.
    504 Loan Program Data.--SBA is directed to publish 504 
program data at the end of fiscal year 2021, including but not

collaborative effort with the SEC to ensure effective oversight 
of SBICs and the protection of SBIC investors.
    Size Standards.--There are concerns about restrictive size 
standards for wildland firefighting and fuels management 
contracts. SBA is encouraged to work with the Department of the 
Interior and the Forest Service to address size standards for 
North American Industry Classification System Code 115310 to 
ensure that the standard reflects the increase in costs 
associated with forest firefighting.
    Outreach to Native Americans.--There are concerns that SBA 
is not developing and using training modules that are 
accessible to Native American owned entities. SBA is encouraged 
to conduct Tribal consultations on all issues that affect 
Native American owned entities, not issues that solely affect 
Native American owned entities, and to provide training to its 
staff on conducting Tribal consultation, delivered by the 
Office of the National Ombudsman with the Office of Native 
American Affairs and the Associate General Counsel for 
Procurement Law.
    Poultry Farmers.--There are concerns that the regulation 
entitled ``Express Loan Programs; Affiliation Standards'' will 
make it more difficult for poultry growers to access SBA loans 
and will serve to further drive rural Americans out of SBA's 
loan programs. SBA is urged to reconsider this rule to ensure 
that the operations of family farms across the country are not 
adversely impacted.

                  ENTREPRENEURIAL DEVELOPMENT PROGRAMS

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

    SBA is directed to modify its existing budgeting process to 
allow its resource partners, including SBDCs, WBCs, and SCORE, 
to submit budget proposals that are in line with the enacted 
level for discretionary appropriations for the respective 
programs in the previous fiscal year rather than solely 
considering the proposed budget request level, which in recent 
years has not been reflected of the level ultimately enacted by 
Congress.
    Grants Management System.--SBA is directed to provide a 
report within 30 days of enactment of this Act on the 
implementation of a new grants management system and the 
timeline for completion.
    Federal and State Technology Partnership (FAST) Program.--
The agreement notes the FAST program's efforts to reach 
innovative, technology-driven small businesses and to leverage 
the Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) and Small 
Business Technology Transfer (STTR) program to stimulate 
economic development. The FAST program is particularly 
important in States that are seeking to build high technology 
industries but are underrepresented in the SBIR/STTR programs. 
Small Business and Technology Development Centers (SBTDCs) 
serve small businesses in these fields and are accredited to 
provide intellectual property and technology commercialization 
assistance to businesses in high technology industries. Of 
theamount provided for FAST, $1,000,000 shall be for FAST awards to 
SBTDCs fully accredited for technology designation as of December 31, 
2020.

accelerators, SBA shall prioritize funding to applications from 
rural areas that have not previously received an award.
    Small Business Development Centers.--The Administrator of 
the SBA shall, to the extent practicable and subject to the 
availability of funds, ensure that a small business development 
center is appropriately reimbursed within the same fiscal year 
in which the expenses are submitted for reimbursement for any 
and all legitimate expenses incurred in carrying out activities 
under section 21(a)(1) et seq. of the Small Business Act (15 
U.S.C. 648(a)(1) et seq.).
    Veterans Entrepreneur Pilot Program.--SBA is directed to 
expeditiously submit to the Committees a report on a Veterans 
Entrepreneur Pilot Program as required by the Consolidated 
Appropriations Act, 2020 (Public Law 116-93), which is now six 
months overdue.
    Cybersecurity for Small Businesses Pilot Program.--The 
agreement includes $3,000,000 for a Cybersecurity Assistance 
Pilot Program that will competitively award up to three grants 
to States to provide new small businesses with access to 
cybersecurity tools during their formative and most vulnerable 
years.

Program Account.

                     DISASTER LOANS PROGRAM ACCOUNT

                     (INCLUDING TRANSFER OF FUNDS)

    The bill provides $168,075,000 for the administrative costs 
of the Disaster Loans Program, of which $142,864,000 is 
designated as being for disaster relief for major disasters

Emergency Deficit Control Act of 1985.
    2017 Hurricane Recommendations.--SBA is encouraged to take 
action to implement the five recommendations for Executive 
Action made by GAO in its report entitled, ``Disaster Loan 
Processing Was Timelier, but Planning Improvements and Pilot 
Program Evaluation Needed.''
    Disaster Loan Assistance Portal.--SBA is encouraged to 
prioritize funding to migrate the Disaster Loan Assistance 
Portal to the cloud to improve the user experience by making it 
more accessible and intuitive. In updating the portal, SBA 
should enhance its systems to accommodate larger megapixel 
documents. In addition, SBA is urged to develop a Disaster Loan 
Mobile Application, in consultation with appropriate 
individuals and entities from the public and private sectors.
    Business Recovery Centers.--SBA is encouraged to continue 
its close collaboration with the Federal Emergency Management 
Agency (FEMA) during disaster recovery and consider additional 
co-location of Business Recovery Centers and Disaster Recovery 
Centers where economically practicable. SBA is directed to 
submit a report to the Committees within 120 days of enactment 
of this Act on the feasibility of additional co-location so 
that SBA and FEMA are not searching for, opening and operating 
separate facilities in the aftermath of disasters.
    Virtual Recovery Centers.--In many parts of the country, 
broadband Internet access can be difficult to find following a 
disaster, and Americans cannot always afford to wait to begin 
the recovery process until power and Internet is restored. As a 
result, SBA's decision to host virtual recovery centers in lieu 
of traditional boots-on-the-ground recovery centers in the 
aftermath of Hurricane Laura and other natural disasters that 
have occurred in 2020 could unnecessarily prolong the recovery 
process for many individuals and small businesses. SBA is urged 
to reconsider this decision.
    SBA Disaster Loan Duplication of Assistance.--There is 
concern that some disaster victims are penalized with disaster 
benefit reductions if they apply for SBA disaster loans, but 
wind up not taking the loan when other Federal assistance is 
awarded. SBA is urged to issue guidance relating to the 
consideration of whether an applicant for assistance from the 
grantee applied and was approved for, but declined assistance 
to the major disaster from the Administration under section 
7(b) of the Small Business Act.

                      GENERAL PROVISIONS--THIS ACT


                    (INCLUDING RESCISSION OF FUNDS)

separately;
    (5) whether child welfare experts were consulted prior to 
the family's physical separation;
    (6) whether a group presenting as a family unit arrived at 
the border and was separated after being determined not to meet 
the legal definition of a family unit; and
    (7) in cases where CBP separates individuals claiming to be

the reunification of separated family units.
    Federal Law Enforcement.--The agreement notes that the 
explanatory statement accompanying the Commerce, Justice, 
Science, and Related Agencies Appropriations Act, 2021 directs 
the Attorney General to ensure implementation of evidence-based 
training programs on de-escalation and the use-of-force, as 
well as on police-community relations, that are broadly 
applicable and scalable to all Federal law enforcement 
agencies. The agreement further notes that several agencies 
funded by this Act employ Federal law enforcement officers and 
are Federal Law Enforcement Training Centers partner 
organizations. The agreement directs such agencies to consult 
with the Attorney General regarding the implementation of these 
programs for their law enforcement officers. The agreement 
further directs such agencies to brief the Committees on 
Appropriations on their efforts relating to such implementation 
no later than 90 days after consultation with the Attorney 
General. In addition, the agreement directs such agencies, to 
the extent that they are not already participating, to consult 
with the Attorney General and the Director of the FBI regarding

provide a report to the Committees not later than 90 days after 
the date of enactment of this Act on the feasibility of 
producing an annual projection of needs for goods and services

entities, and whether the Department has access or could 
appropriately obtain access to such data. Such access should be 
consistent with privacy protection laws, applicable state laws,

    (C) trafficked from an international location; and
    (2) a description of industries and geographical regions in 
which the practice of human trafficking is most prevalent.
    For the purposes of the report, human trafficking shall 
have the same meaning as in section 7102 of title 22, United 
States Code, including but not limited to sex and labor 
trafficking. It does not include conduct described in Section

institutions and associations.
    Personnel Cost Adjustments.--Department-wide attrition and 
hiring challenges in fiscal year 2020 reduced staffing levels 
at the beginning of fiscal year 2021, leading to reduced 
personnel funding requirements for the remaining months of the 
fiscal year. As a result, the agreement includes personnel cost 
adjustments across departmental components based on the most 
recent information available to the Committees.
    Pilot Programs.--The Secretary is directed to provide the

provide a report or briefing to the Committees detailing 
lessons learned, actual costs, and any planned expansion or 
continuation of the pilot or demonstration program. For 
purposes of these directives, a pilot or demonstration program 
is defined as a policy implementation, study, demonstration,

          TITLE II--SECURITY, ENFORCEMENT, AND INVESTIGATIONS


                   U.S. Customs and Border Protection


                         OPERATIONS AND SUPPORT

                     (INCLUDING TRANSFER OF FUNDS)

    The agreement reduces the request by $78,509,000. A total 
of $500,000,000 is available until September 30, 2022. The bill

year 2020 and also includes the following reductions below the 
budget request: $135,774,000 associated with personnel cost 
adjustments and $17,600,000 proposed for recruitment and 
applicant processing.
    Antidumping and Countervailing Duties (AD/CVD).--CBP is 
directed to continue reporting on AD/CVD, as required in Senate 
Report 114-264 and as expanded in Senate Report 115-283.
    Assessing Impact of Travel Restrictions on Border 
Communities.--Businesses in states that depend on travel across 
the border to obtain essential supplies are particularly 
impacted by travel restrictions at land and sea ports of entry 
(POEs). CBP is directed to consider the impact of travel 
restrictions on families, businesses, and communities and 
provide for reasonable exemptions to travel restrictions 
mandated by federal, state, and local authorities. CBP is urged 
to maintain regular communication with impacted stakeholders as 
travel restrictions change or are updated.
    Body-Worn Cameras.--CBP is directed to continue requiring 
the use of fixed, vehicle, and body-worn cameras for officers 
and agents in interactions with the public through its Incident 
Driven Video Recording System program, which helps provide an 
ac1050curate representation of law enforcement encounters while 
allowing agents and officers to safely perform their duties. 
CBP shall comply with department-wide policy on protecting the 
privacy of both CBP law enforcement personnel and the public 
and ensure appropriate infrastructure is in place to support 
the use of body-worn cameras, including any associated storage 
and video management system requirements. Within 90 days of the 
date of enactment of this Act, CBP shall provide a plan to the 
Committees, to also be made available on a publicly accessible 
website, on the schedule for deploying body-worn cameras and 
detailing relevant policies and procedures for the use of the 
technology and retention of and access to video data.
    Border Searches and Electronics.--In addition to direction 
provided in House Report 116-458 related to searches of 
electronic devices, CBP shall continue to follow direction 
provided in Senate Report 116-125.
    Border Security Deployment Program (BSDP).--CBP shall 
provide the Committees a briefing within 120 days of the date 
of enactment of this Act on the agency's plan to expand BSDP at 
land ports of entry (LPOEs).
    Continued Dumping and Subsidy Offset Act (CDSOA).--It is 
concerning that the intent of Congress under CDSOA (Public Law 
106-387) is being diluted by CBP's requests that domestic 
industries that received prior, incorrect payments of collected 
duties under CDSOA return those payments due to CBP's various 
collections litigation setbacks, settlements, or administrative 
errors. As most of these payments were made several years ago 
and have been reinvested by the recipients, as CDSOA intended, 
there are concerns that this policy is counter to the intent of 
the statute. By recouping revenue paid to domestic companies 
and assessing interest charges, CBP is counteracting the intent 
to allow industries the opportunity to rehire and reinvest. CBP 
is instructed to determine the impact of this practice on U.S. 
producers and to notify the Committees prior to recouping such 
payments or reducing future payments.
    Craft Beverage Modernization Tax Reform Act.--The 
Commissioner is directed to submit a study within 60 days of 
the date of enactment of this Act detailing the number of 
claims related to the Craft Beverage Modernization and Tax 
Reform Act (Public Law 115-97) that remain outstanding for 
2018; the interest owed on those claims as of January 1, 2020; 
the rate at which those claims are being processed; and an 
estimate of the total cost in interest payments for which the 
Treasury will be liable should those claims continue to be 
processed at the current rate. The Commissioner is further 
directed to submit a study within 60 days of the date of 
enactment of this Act of the estimated cost of upgrading its IT 
systems that track imported goods to make them interoperable 
with the IT systems of the Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade 
Bureau.
    DeConcini Port of Entry.--CBP is directed to ensure it 
monitors plans for repairing the Nogales International Outfall 
Interceptor (IOI) so that repairs do not interfere with long-
term port operations and to provide technical assistance as the 
IOI and related projects are completed, as appropriate. 
Further, CBP is directed to provide a briefing within 180 days 
of the date of enactment of this Act on its monitoring and 
technical assistance efforts, including consultation with the 
General Services Administration (GSA) or other stakeholders, to 
ensure the strategies discussed adequately represent CBP's 
interests, including officer safety and overall impact to port 
operations.
    Detecting Opioids in the Mail.--The Department is directed 
to provide a report within 180 days of the date of enactment of 
this Act on technologies developed through the Opioid Detection 
Challenge and their potential impacts on CBP operations.
    Deterring Illicit Substances.--CBP is encouraged to 
continue efforts to leverage advanced capabilities to 
accelerate progress in achieving screening goals to detect, 
interdict, and deter the flow of illicit drugs and other 
contraband at the POEs, to include radiation-free passive cargo 
scanning technology. CBP is also encouraged to obtain portable 
chemical screening capabilities to detect the presence of 
fentanyl and other narcotics, including lab equipment, 
decontamination solutions, personal protective equipment, and 
other consumables, and by increasing the number of scientists 
at POEs and express consignment facilities to rapidly interpret 
screening test results.
    Expansion of Arizona and New Mexico Border Zone Travel.--
Under current policy, eligible Mexican nationals can travel in 
certain areas of Arizona and New Mexico for up to 30 days. With 
CBP increasing security due to the recurrent vetting of 
travelers, this policy focuses on efficiencies and has shown 
both a decrease in costs to CBP and an increase in revenue to 
local economies in those states as a result of additional 
opportunities for freedom of movement. CBP is encouraged to 
initiate a pilot program to expand travel opportunities to the 
entire State of Arizona and State of New Mexico. The pilot 
should not change who would be eligible for a visa, the 
duration of each visit, or the method of entry. CBP shall 
provide a briefing to the Committees within 60 days of the date 
of enactment of this Act on the status of the pilot program, 
which shall include identifying any applicable statutes, 
federal rules, or regulations that would require revision to 
carry out the program and ensure compliance.
    Gordie Howe International Bridge.--Within 60 days of the 
date of enactment of this Act, CBP shall provide the Committees 
with a report on the agency's plan to staff the Gordie Howe 
International Bridge POE. The report shall include information 
on the anticipated staffing timeline; the full staffing 
requirement; the actual staffing level CBP expects to achieve 
and maintain, delineated by officers and other staff; plans for 
recruitment of new personnel and the transfer of existing 
personnel to the POE; and any other information deemed relevant 
by CBP in order to ensure the POE becomes fully operational 
according to the current schedule.
    Great Lakes Cruise Vessels.--CBP is directed to continue 
working with Great Lakes seaports, cruise vessel operators, and 
other stakeholders to develop a regional cruise passenger 
clearance plan and shall continue using mobile onboard 
passenger clearance technology until such plan is implemented. 
Not later than 180 days of the date of enactment of this Act, 
CBP shall provide a report to the Committees on the screening 
practices for Great Lakes and inland seaports, which shall 
include:
    (1) current screening capability;
    (2) a threat assessment for containerized and non-
containerized cargo;
    (3) the types of cargo received by each port, delineated by 
ownership by either CBP, state or local port authority, or 
private entity;
    (4) current cost-sharing arrangements for screening 
technology or service to the port;
    (5) which ports are outside the jurisdiction or area of 
responsibility for each Field Office; and
    (6) details on Field Office responsibilities for ports 
outside of their jurisdiction.
    The report shall be submitted in an unclassified form, to 
the maximum extent possible, but may include a classified 
portion, if necessary.
    Holding Facility Length of Stay.--In lieu of direction in 
the House Report, CBP shall notify the Committees within 24 
hours of any instance in which any child is held in a single 
CBP holding facility, centralized processing center, or 
temporary or soft-sided facility for more than three days or 
spends more than a total of six days in CBP custody. Within 60 
days of the date of enactment of this Act and weekly 
thereafter, CBP shall update the Committees on the number of 
detainees currently being held by CBP for longer than 48 hours 
in Border Patrol stations, POEs, humanitarian care centers, and 
centralized processing centers, and for longer than 72 hours in 
temporary or soft-sided facilities. This update shall be posted 
on a publicly available website.
    Improving Cargo Security and Examinations.--Within 180 days 
of the date of enactment of this Act, CBP shall provide the 
Committees with a report on the resources needed to increase 
the percentage of cargo inspected upon entry to the United 
States every year.
    Information Technology Enhancements.--Within 90 days of the 
date of enactment of this Act, CBP shall provide the Committees 
with the agency's plan to migrate remaining software 
applications to the cloud, including the estimated costs and 
savings relating to the migration.
    Land POE Hours of Operation.--In addition to direction in 
House Report 116-458, CBP is urged to conduct a robust 
analysis, to include economic impacts, prior to any reduction 
in hours of operations. CBP is urged to provide proposals to 
the Committees aimed at improving the recruitment and retention 
of CBP personnel at remote northern border POEs to sustain 
appropriate operating hours. To assist with the challenges 
relating to operating hours, CBP is directed to establish a 
pilot program for the co-location of CBP and Canada Border 
Services Agency border agents at remote LPOEs, which will meet 
both agencies' requirements, maintain border security, and 
reduce costs.
    Law Enforcement Suitability Analysis.--CBP shall follow the 
directives in Senate Report 116-125 and House Report 116-180, 
regarding the Law Enforcement Suitability Analysis and 
associated reporting requirements and polygraph waiver 
reporting, respectively.
    Mission Support Contracting.--CBP is again directed to 
provide an inventory of all Enterprise Services PPA contracts, 
organized by category, and a plan to reduce current duplication 
in contracting to leverage economies of scale.
    Non-Mission Duties.--Not later than 30 days after the date 
of enactment of this Act, CBP shall submit to the Committees a 
detailed report on:
    (1) the total number of Border Patrol agents or CBP 
officers carrying out non-mission duties, broken out by detail 
and adjutants;
    (2) the identification of the funding sources associated 
with non-mission duties;
    (3) the rationale for CBP personnel to perform non-mission 
duties and the duration they are expected to perform those 
duties;
    (4) a detailed description of all required training for 
Border Patrol agents and CBP officers in order to carry out the 
non-mission duties; and
    (5) the identification of any impacts to CBP's mission due 
to agents and officers carrying out non-mission duties.
    Northern Border Strategy Implementation Plan.--Within 90 
days of the date of enactment of this Act and quarterly 
thereafter, CBP shall brief the Committees on the status of the 
Northern Border Strategy Implementation Plan, including whether 
the fiscal year 2019 milestones have been achieved, the status 
of the fiscal year 2020 milestones, and for milestones that 
have not been achieved, detailed justifications for the 
shortfall. Further, future budget requests shall detail 
specific northern border staffing and technology requirements 
and request specific funding for implementation of planned 
northern border enforcement initiatives enumerated in the 
analysis.
    Operational Impact of Border Patrol Processing 
Coordinators.--The agreement provides $20,000,000 for new 
Border Patrol processing coordinators. Within 90 days of the 
date of enactment of this Act, CBP shall provide a briefing to 
the Committees on the status of Border Patrol processing 
coordinator hiring, including the number of Border Patrol 
agents returned to the field as a result of such hires, the 
measures the agency is using to assess the costs and benefits 
of this position, and a summary of all training and 
certifications required for coordinators. Future funding 
requests for coordinator positions shall be accompanied by 
descriptions of the expected operational impacts from 
additional investments.
    Prevent Abduction Program.--Within 180 days of the date of 
enactment of this Act, CBP is directed to brief the Committees 
on the status of the Prevent Abduction Program, including: (1) 
the total hours of training CBP officers receive on the issue 
of international parental child abduction; (2) the cumulative 
number of children enrolled in the program and the number of 
children enrolled in the preceding fiscal year; (3) the number 
of children enrolled in the program who, despite their 
enrollment, were removed at an air POE, if any; and (4) the 
identification of additional resources needed to ensure 
children are not removed from the United States in violation of 
a valid state court order.
    Prioritizing Resources, Applying Analytics, and Integrating 
Budget Requests.--Appropriately resourcing the varied and 
complex missions of CBP requires a clear understanding of the 
level of effort supported by CBP's base budget and how changes 
in personnel, equipment, and other assets are expected to 
impact mission performance. This requires the development of 
robust workload staffing models. To better understand how 
congressional investments in border security impact 
requirements for Border Patrol agents, Border Patrol processing 
coordinators, and other mission support staff, CBP is again 
directed to develop a comprehensive workload staffing model.
    In addition, CBP can use predictive analytics to forecast 
how both internal policy changes and external actions are 
likely to impact resource needs. Whether projecting changes in 
legitimate travel and trade to the United States or estimating 
the flow of people and illicit items across our borders, the 
use of predictive analytics will improve the agency's ability 
to respond to changing circumstances in a timelier and more 
cost-effective manner. Without such analyses, CBP and the 
Department are unable to clearly demonstrate the value of 
additional resources and the Committees are limited in their 
ability to make informed decisions. CBP is directed to 
prioritize and execute the following:
    (1) Quantify operational capabilities supported by CBP's 
base budget and identify gaps.
    (A) CBP shall brief the Committees bimonthly on efforts to 
evaluate CBP-wide workload, capabilities, assets, and human 
resource capabilities and gaps and to use the results of the 
quarterly analyses to support future budget requests.
    (2) Apply analytics and modeling tools to further inform 
resource needs.
    (A) Within 45 days of the date of enactment of this Act, 
CBP shall provide a briefing to the Committees on a plan to 
incorporate predictive analytics into planning and budgeting 
processes.
    (B) Within 90 days of the date of enactment of this Act, 
CBP shall provide a briefing to the Committees on the 
development of a Border Patrol workload staffing model that 
demonstrates the impact that existing and potential resources 
are expected to have on personnel needs.
    (C) Within six months of the date of enactment of this Act, 
CBP shall provide a report detailing the model and the process 
that CBP used to create and validate the model. The report 
shall include:
    (i) steps and associated timelines taken to create the 
model and resources used to develop it;
    (ii) data sources and methodology used to generate the 
model;
    (iii) actions taken to independently verify the model; and
    (iv) a plan for periodically updating and improving upon 
the model, including the incorporation of new technology 
investments and associated force multiplier effects; and 
changes in programs and processes, air and marine assets, and 
deployment of additional surveillance technologies.
    (3) Integrate data into future budget requests.
    (A) CBP shall begin using the data described above to 
strengthen and connect requests for resources. To date, the 
Congress receives individual requests for funding and must 
assess and fund these requests as stand-alone budget proposals 
with limited justifications that do not take into account the 
relationships between these investments. CBP is directed to 
include with any requests for new funds the following 
information as part of detailed budget justifications:
    (i) a description of the relationship between investments;
    (ii) data on how a change in one investment may impact 
another; and
    (iii) how the investments will impact the measures used to 
assess performance improvements.
    (B) CBP is directed to provide a briefing within 60 days of 
the date of the enactment of this Act on how the agency will 
comply with this requirement.
    Queue Management at POEs and Data on Asylum Seekers.--CBP 
shall follow the direction in Senate Report 116-125 regarding 
reporting on queue management at POEs. In addition, CBP is 
directed to include data within its monthly southwest migration 
reports detailing the number of individuals claiming fear or 
attempting to claim a fear of return to their home country. 
While CBP has provided annual statistics on the number of 
``credible fear apprehensions'' and ``credible fear 
inadmissibles,'' under this new directive, CBP shall 
disaggregate this data such that individuals claiming credible 
fear are not included within or counted towards either the 
``apprehensions'' or ``inadmissibles'' statistics.
    Rebuttable Presumption.--Not later than 180 days after the 
date of enactment of this Act, CBP shall provide a report to 
the Committees on the benefits and risks of a rebuttable 
presumption of evasion for a commercial entity in the context 
of customs law where there was a prior CBP finding of evasion 
from the same entity.
    Recruitment, Hiring, and Retention.--Within 180 days of the 
date of enactment of this Act, CBP shall brief the Committees 
on its efforts to improve hiring and retention by all of its 
law enforcement components. CBP shall prioritize and continue 
efforts to use available incentives to recruit and retain 
employees in rural and remote areas and explore other 
strategies, such as innovative pilot programs that include 
successful strategies from the private sector, career path 
enhancements, alternative schedules, and workforce support 
programs.
    Reporting Requirements.--CBP shall follow the direction 
provided in Senate Report 116-125 on the following items:
    (1) Combatting Transshipment;
    (2) Combatting Transportation of Firearms and Illicit 
Funds;
    (3) Strengthening Capabilities at International Mail and 
Express Consignment Facilities;
    (4) Field Operations Staffing;
    (5) Northern Border LPOEs and Maritime POEs;
    (6) Agricultural Inspections;
    (7) Reimbursable Services Programs;
    (8) Harmonized Commodity Description and Coding System; and
    (9) Preclearance and Beyond the Border Action Plan.
    Reporting Requirements for Deaths in Custody.--In addition 
to direction in the House Report, CBP shall ensure that agents 
have sufficient training to carry out the CBP Interim 
Procedures on Notifications on Deaths in Custody issued on 
December 17, 2018.
    Not later than 90 days after the submission of the report 
on migrant deaths described in the House Report, the 
Comptroller General of the United States shall review such 
report and provide a preliminary briefing to the Committees on 
the following:
    (1) the validity of CBP's statistical analysis of migrant 
deaths;
    (2) the extent to which CBP has adopted simple and low-cost 
measures, such as rescue beacons, to reduce the frequency of 
migrant deaths;
    (3) the extent to which CBP measures the effectiveness of 
its programs to reduce the frequency of migrant deaths; and
    (4) the extent of data and information sharing and 
cooperation among CBP, local and state law enforcement 
agencies, foreign diplomatic and consular posts, and non-
governmental organizations to accurately identify deceased 
individuals, notify family members, and compare information to 
missing persons registries.
    The remains of thousands of women, men, and children have 
been found along migrant border crossing routes and thousands 
more are believed to lie unrecovered. CBP is encouraged to 
expand engagement with its state and local counterparts and 
non-governmental organizations to address this humanitarian 
challenge.
    Short-Term Detention.--In addition to direction in the 
House Report concerning medical care, CBP shall ensure that 
appropriate medical supplies are made available to each Border 
Patrol agent with an Emergency Medical Technician or paramedic 
certification and to each Border Patrol sector, including all 
remote stations and forward operating bases. In developing the 
appropriate list of medical supplies required, CBP shall 
consult with and consider recommendations from national 
organizations with expertise in emergency medical care, 
including emergency medical care of children, and the DHS Chief 
Medical Officer. However, this direction should not be 
construed to interfere with the rights obtained or obligations 
owed by any federal consent decree. CBP shall brief the 
Committees not later than 180 days after the date of enactment 
of this Act on the plan to implement the updated medical 
guidance.
    Solid Sodium Cyanide Briquettes.--The Secretary, in 
coordination with the Environmental Protection Agency 
Administrator and the Secretary of the Department of 
Transportation, shall conduct an investigation of the national 
security, health, and safety implications of imports of solid 
sodium cyanide briquettes. The study shall include: (1) an 
evaluation of current industrial standards for safety, 
shipping, storage, and security; (2) whether such imports 
comply with these existing standards; and (3) recommendations 
for improved standards.
    Specialty Units.--Within 180 days of the date of enactment 
of this Act, CBP shall report to the Committees on the status 
and needs of all specialty units within each sector and 
department-wide. The report shall provide, at a minimum, a 
description of: (1) the specialty unit composition and quantity 
of membership, baseline capabilities, and training; (2) any 
needs of specialty units, including horses and off-road 
vehicles, training, or other capabilities; and (3) any other 
resource needs as applicable. For purposes of this section,

respond to records requests, consistent with the requirements 
of section 552 of title 5, United States Code, for information 
related to all detainees in the custody of the Department, 
regardless of whether such detainees are housed in a federal or 
non-federal detention facility. The Department should not

that disclosure would harm an interest protected by an 
exemption described in section 552(b) of title 5, United States 
Code, or is otherwise prohibited by law.

partners, the agreement includes funding through the Office of 
Civil Rights and Civil Liberties (OCRCL) within the Office of 
the Secretary and Executive Management for a case management

    (4) the planned metrics for evaluating the program.
    At the completion of the program, OCRCL shall provide a 
report to the Committees with recommendations for providing ATD 
case management services.
    Not later than 60 days after the date of enactment of this 
Act, ICE, in collaboration with OCRCL and the Privacy Office, 
is directed to develop a process for complying with the 
requirements and intent of the case management pilot program. 
ICE shall ensure that any individual released from ICE custody 
on parole, bond, or into the ATD program who resides in an area 
covered by the pilot program is made aware of these case 
management services and is referred for services unless they 
formally decline such services in writing. ICE shall also 
provide relevant contact and case file information for such 
individuals to the grantee servicing the area where such 
individuals reside. These requirements shall also apply for 
anyone residing in such area who is enrolled in the ATD program 
as of the date of enactment of this Act.
    ICE shall provide information describing this process to 
FEMA, the national board responsible for administering the 
pilot grant program, and each grant recipient. To ensure 
compliance with congressional intent, FEMA, ICE, OCRCL, and the 
Privacy Office are directed to jointly brief the Committees on 
this process prior to its execution. In any area not actively 
served by the pilot program, ICE shall continue to use its 
resources to provide case management services.
    ICE shall continue to brief the Committees on any ATD 
contracts it awards under this program, including contracts 
involving the ``Know Your Rights'' program for new 
participants. In addition, ICE is directed to continue 
exploring the use of ATD models on an ongoing basis; 
prioritizing the use of such detention alternatives for 
immigrant children and their families, when appropriate; and 
seeking the release of individuals and their family members who 
pass credible fear screening and do not present a public safety 
or flight risk.
    ICE shall continue to publish annually the following 
policies and data relating to ATD: guidance for referral, 
placement, escalation, and de-escalation decisions; enrollment 
by Field Office; information on the length of enrollment broken

establishing these guidelines within 60 days of the date of 
enactment of this Act and quarterly thereafter until the 
guidelines are finalized. ICE shall submit an annual report on 
the number of referrals submitted by NGOs and the number of 
such referrals accepted into ATD programs that utilize case 
management programs.
    Finally, Congress appropriated $4,000,000 for ICE in fiscal 
year 2020 to fund an independent review of the ATD program. ICE 
is reminded of the requirement that the review and analysis be 
informed by discussions with government officials, current 
program operators, non-governmental immigration policy 
stakeholders, and current participants in the program, and by 
reviewing similar programs in other countries. Not later than 
60 days after the date of enactment of this Act, the Secretary

encouraged to examine the impacts of expanding the policy to 
additional locations not currently included, such as school bus 
stops or other locations where children congregate; USCIS 
offices; mental health, emergency, and social services centers; 
and other locations where community impacts should be balanced 
against ICE law enforcement interests.
    Further, ICE is directed to provide its officers with 
guidance and training for engaging with victims and witnesses 
of crime, including victims of domestic violence, and to 
strengthen policy guidance on enforcement actions in or near

individuals are conversant and should include written 
materials.
    Law Enforcement Support Center (LESC).--The agreement 
provides not less than $34,500,000, as requested, to support 
the authorized level of 248 full-time law enforcement 
specialists and officers at the LESC, which serves a critical 
function in federal efforts to identify and locate undocumented 
immigrants with serious felony records. ICE is directed to take 
steps to ensure that current LESC operations remain centralized 
at the current facility and are not unnecessarily duplicated in 
other parts of the country. The Department is also directed to 
notify the Committees prior to the reallocation of any 
resources currently intended for LESC operations in Vermont; it 
is expected that no such reallocation will be made without the 
concurrence of the Committees. ICE is reminded of the LESC 
reporting requirement in the Joint Explanatory Statement 
accompanying the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2019 (Public 
Law 116-6).
    Mobile Criminal Alien Teams.--ICE is directed to continue

    Private Immigration Bills.--In May 2017, ICE changed its 
long-standing policy of providing a temporary stay of removal 
for individuals who are the subject of a private immigration 
bill introduced in Congress when the Chair of the House or 
Senate Committee on the Judiciary, or appropriate subcommittee, 
submits a request for an investigation report on that 
individual. ICE is reminded that the prior process was the 
direct result of negotiations between the Executive and 
Legislative branches of government and was bipartisan. 
Accordingly, ICE is directed to brief the Committees, not later 
than 180 days after the date of enactment of this Act, on its 
policy for responding to official requests for reports on 
individuals for whom private immigration bills have been 
introduced in the House or Senate. The briefing shall include a

    Section 501. The agreement continues a provision directing 
that no part of any appropriation shall remain available for 
obligation beyond the current year unless expressly provided.
    Section 502. The agreement continues a provision providing 
authority to merge unexpended balances of prior appropriations 
with new appropriation accounts, to be used for the same 
purpose, subject to reprogramming guidelines.
    Section 503. The agreement continues a provision from prior 
years related to reprogramming and transfer authority. All 
components funded by the Department of Homeland Security 
Appropriations Act, 2021, must comply with these requirements.
    The Department must notify the Committees on Appropriations 
prior to each reprogramming of funds that would reduce 
programs, projects, activities, or personnel by ten percent or 
more. Notifications are also required for each reprogramming of 
funds that would increase a program, project, or activity by 
more than $5,000,000 or ten percent, whichever is less. The 
Department must submit these notifications to the Committees on 
Appropriations at least 15 days in advance of any such 
reprogramming.
    For purposes of reprogramming notifications, ``program, 
project, or activity'' is defined as an amount identified in 
the detailed funding table located at the end of this statement 
or an amount directed for a specific purpose in this statement. 
Also, for purposes of reprogramming notifications, the creation 
of a new program, project, or activity is defined as any 
significant new activity that has not been explicitly justified 
to the Congress in budget justification material and for which 
funds have not been appropriated by the Congress. For further 
guidance when determining which movements of funds are subject 
to section 503, the Department is reminded to follow GAO's 
definition of ``program, project, or activity'' as detailed in 
GAO's A Glossary of Terms Used in the Federal Budget Process. 
Within 30 days of the date of enactment of this Act, the 
Department shall submit to the Committees a table delineating 
PPAs subject to section 503 notification requirements, as 
defined in this paragraph.
    Limited transfer authority is provided to give the 
Department flexibility in responding to emerging requirements 
and significant changes in circumstances, but is not primarily 
intended to facilitate the implementation of new programs, 
projects, or activities that were not proposed in a formal 
budget submission. Transfers may not reduce accounts by more 
than five percent or increase accounts by more than ten 
percent. The Committees on Appropriations must be notified not 
fewer than 30 days in advance of any transfer.
    To avoid violations of the Anti-Deficiency Act, the 
Secretary shall ensure that any transfer of funds is carried 
out in compliance with the limitations and requirements of 
section 503(c). In particular, the Secretary should ensure that 
any such transfers adhere to the opinion of the Comptroller 
General's decision in the Matter of: John D. Webster, Director, 
Financial Services, Library of Congress, dated November 7, 
1997, with regard to the definition of an appropriation subject 
to transfer limitations.
    The Department shall submit notifications on a timely basis 
and provide complete explanations of the proposed 
reallocations, including detailed justifications for the 
increases and offsets, and any specific impact the proposed 
changes would have on the budget request for the following 
fiscal year and future-year appropriations requirements. Each 
notification submitted to the Committees should include a 
detailed table showing the proposed revisions to funding and 
FTE--at the account, program, project, and activity level--for 
the current fiscal year, along with any funding and FTE impacts 
on the budget year.
    The Department shall manage its programs, projects, and 
activities within the levels appropriated, and should only 
submit reprogramming or transfer notifications in cases of 
unforeseeable and compelling circumstances that could not have 
been predicted when formulating the budget request for the 
current fiscal year. When the Department submits a 
reprogramming or transfer notification and does not receive 
identical responses from the House and Senate Committees, it is 
expected to reconcile the differences before proceeding.
    The Department is not to submit a reprogramming or transfer 
notification after June 30 except in extraordinary 
circumstances that imminently threaten the safety of human life 
or the protection of property. If an above-threshold 
reprogramming or a transfer is needed after June 30, the 
notification should contain sufficient documentation as to why 
it meets this statutory exception.
    De-obligated funds are also subject to the reprogramming 
and transfer limitations and requirements set forth in section 
503.
    Section 503(f) authorizes the Secretary to transfer up to 
$20,000,000 to address immigration emergencies after notifying 
the Committees of such transfer at least five days in advance.
    Section 504. The agreement continues a provision, by 
reference, prohibiting funds appropriated or otherwise made 
available to the Department to make payment to the Working 
Capital Fund (WCF), except for activities and amounts allowed 
in the President's fiscal year 2021 budget request. Funds 
provided to the WCF are available until expended. The 
Department can only charge components for direct usage of the 
WCF and these funds may be used only for the purposes 
consistent with the contributing component. Any funds paid in 
advance or for reimbursement must reflect the full cost of each 
service. The Department shall submit a notification prior to 
adding a new activity to the fund or eliminating an existing 
activity from the fund. For activities added to the fund, such 
notifications shall detail the source of funds by PPA. In 
addition, the Department shall submit quarterly WCF execution 
reports to the Committees that include activity level detail.
    Section 505. The agreement continues a provision providing 
that not to exceed 50 percent of unobligated balances from 
prior-year appropriations for each Operations and Support

subject to section 503 reprogramming requirements.

agreement, or to issue a letter of intent of greater than 
$4,000,000; task or delivery orders greater than $10,000,000
