                   CURRENT MISSIONS, RESPONSIBILITIES, AND FORCE 
                   STRUCTURE OF THE UNIFIED COMBATANT COMMANDS.

       The Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff shall consider, 
     as part of the next periodic review of the missions, 
     responsibilities, and force structure of the unified 
     combatant commands under section 161(b) of title 10, United 
     States Code, the following matters:
       (1) For each Area of Responsibility of the regional unified 
     combatant commands--
       (A) the foremost threats to United States or allied 
     securities in the near- and long-term;
       (B) the total area of ocean and total area of land 
     encompassed; and
       (C) the number of countries and total populations 
     encompassed.
       (2) Whether any one Area of Responsibility encompasses a 
     disproportionately high or low share of threats, mission 
     requirements, land or ocean area, number of countries, or 
     population.
       (3) The other factors used to establish the current Areas 
     of Responsibility.
       (4) Whether any of the factors addressed under paragraph 
     (3) account for any apparent imbalances indicated in the 
     response to paragraph (2).
       (5) Whether, in light of recent reductions in the overall 
     force structure of the Armed Forces, the United States could 
     better execute its warfighting plans with fewer unified 
     combatant commands, including--
       (A) a total of five or fewer commands, all of which are 
     regional;
       (B) an eastward-oriented command, a westward-oriented 
     command, a central command; or
       (C) a purely functional command structure, involving (for 
     example) a first theater command, a second theater command, a 
     logistics command, a special contingencies command, and a 
     strategic command.
       (6) Whether any missions, staff, facilities, equipment, 
     training programs, or other assets or activities of the 
     unified combatant commands are redundant.
       (7) Whether warfighting requirements are adequate to 
     justify the current functional commands.
       (8) Whether the exclusion of Russia from a specific Area of 
     Responsibility presents any difficulties for the unified 
     combatant commands with respect to contingency planning for 
     that area and its periphery.
       (9) Whether the current geographic boundary between the 
     Central Command and the European Command through the Middle 
     East could create command conflicts in the context of 
     fighting a major regional conflict in the Middle East.

                   BIOLOGICAL WARHEADS.

       (a) Findings--Congress makes the following findings:
       (1) The worldwide proliferation of ballistic missiles is a 
     potential threat to the United States national interests 
     overseas and challenges United States defense planning.
       (2) In the absence of a national missile defense, the 
     United States remains vulnerable to long-range missile 
     threats.
       (3) Russia has a ground-based missile defense system 
     deployed around Moscow.
       (4) Several countries, including Iraq, Iran, and North 
     Korea may soon be technologically capable of threatening the 
     United States and Russia with ballistic missile attack.
       (b) Report Required.--(1) Each year, the President shall 
     submit to Congress a report on the threats to the United 
     States of attack by ballistic missiles carrying nuclear, 
     biological, or chemical warheads.
       (2) The President shall submit the first report not later 
     than 180 days after the date of the enactment of this Act.

     following:
       (1) A list of all countries thought to have nuclear, 
     chemical, or biological weapons, the estimated numbers of 
     such weapons that each country has, and the destructive 
     potential of the weapons.
       (2) A list of all countries thought to have ballistic 
     missiles, the estimated number of

[[Page S7318]]

     such missiles that each country has, and an assessment of the 
     ability of those countries to integrate their ballistic 
     missile capabilities with their nuclear, chemical, or 
     biological weapon technologies.
       (3) A comparison of the United States civil defense 
     capabilities with the civil defense capabilities of each 
     country that has nuclear, chemical, or biological weapons and 
     ballistic missiles capable of delivering such weapons.
       (4) An estimate of the number of American fatalities and 
     injuries that could result, and an estimate of the value of 
     property that could be lost, from an attack on the United 
     States by ballistic missiles carrying nuclear, chemical, or 
     biological weapons if the United States were left undefended 
     by a national missile defense system covering all 50 States.
       (5) Assuming the use of any existing theater ballistic 
     missile defense system for defense of the United States, a 
     list of the States that would be left exposed to nuclear 
     ballistic missile attacks and the criteria used to determine 
     which States would be left exposed.
       (6) The means by which the United States is preparing to 
     defend itself against the potential threat of ballistic 
     missile attacks by North Korea, Iran, Iraq, and other 
     countries obtaining ballistic missiles capable of delivering 
     nuclear, chemical, and biological weapons in the near future.
       (7) For each country that is capable of attacking the 
     United States with ballistic missiles carrying a nuclear, 
     biological, or chemical weapon, a comparison of--
       (A) the vulnerability of the United States to such an 
     attack if theater missile defenses were used to defend 
     against the attack; and
       (B) the vulnerability of the United States to such an 
     attack if a national missile defense were in place to defend 
     against the attack.
