     with respect to a grant of $1,000,000 for the City of Oak 
     Ridge, Tennessee, by inserting the words ``through a subaward 
     to the Oak Ridge Associated University for renovation and 
     expansion of a facility owned by the Oak Ridge Associated 
     University'' after ``to support technology and economic 
     development initiatives''.
       Sec. 630. None of the funds appropriated or otherwise made 
     available by this Act shall be available for cooperation 
     with, or assistance or other support to, the International 
     Criminal Court or the Preparatory Commission. This subsection 
     shall not be construed to apply to any other entity outside 
     the Rome treaty.

       JOINT EXPLANATORY STATEMENT OF THE COMMITTEE OF CONFERENCE

       The managers on the part of the House and the Senate at the 
     conference on the disagreeing votes of the two Houses on the 
     amendment of the Senate to the bill (H.R. 2500) making 
     appropriations for the Departments of Commerce, Justice, and 
     State, the Judiciary and Related Agencies for the fiscal year 
     ending September 30, 2002, and for other purposes, submit the 
     following joint statement to the House and the Senate in 
     explanation of the effect of the action agreed upon by the 
     managers and recommended in the accompanying conference 
     report. The legislative intent in the House and Senate 
     versions in H.R. 2500 is set forth in the accompanying House 
     report (H. Rept. 107-139 and the accompanying Senate report 
     (S. 107-42).
       Senate amendment: The Senate deleted the entire House bill 
     after the enacting clause and inserted the Senate bill. The 
     conference agreement includes a revised bill.

                     TITLE I--DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE

                         General Administration


                         SALARIES AND EXPENSES

       The conference agreement includes $91,668,000 for General 
     Administration as proposed by the House, instead $93,433,000 
     as proposed by the Senate.
       The conference agreement adopts by reference the House 
     report language regarding the planned integration of the 
     Immigration and Naturalization Service (INS) IDENT system and 
     the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) IAFIS system.
       The conference agreement adopts by reference the Senate 
     report language regarding a study for the establishment of an 
     International Law Enforcement Training Academy in Mexico.
       The conferees continue to be concerned about the security 
     of classified information at the Department. The conferees 
     understand that Federal requirements for storage of 
     classified information mandate that the General Services 
     Administration approved containers are secured with locks 
     that meet or exceed Federal specifications. The conferees 
     expect the Department to report to the Committees no later 
     than March 1, 2002, identifying the number of Department-
     controlled containers that are not in compliance with the 
     Federal specification.
       The conferees are concerned that the Department of Justice 
     has not adequately focused its attention on the growing 
     problem of methamphetamine production and trafficking and the 
     strain this crime is placing on State and local law 
     enforcement resources. The Department of Justice is directed 
     to undertake a review of its current efforts in assisting 
     States and local communities with this growing problem and to 
     prepare a report that (1) defines the scope of the 
     methamphetamine problem nationwide; (2) identifies the 
     regions of the country most adversely affected by 
     methamphetamine production and trafficking; (3) identifies 
     the needs of State and local law enforcement in addressing 
     this issue; and (4) defines the Department's role in 
     providing training, investigative, and clean-up assistance to 
     States and localities. This plan shall be provided to the 
     Committee by February 15, 2002.
       The conference agreement includes bill language, as 
     proposed by the House, specifying the amount of funding 
     provided for the Department Leadership Program and the 
     Offices of Legislative and Public Affairs.


                     JOINT AUTOMATED BOOKING SYSTEM

       The conference agreement includes a total of $15,957,000 
     for the Joint Automated Booking System (JABS) program as 
     proposed by the House, instead of $22,500,000 as proposed by 
     the Senate. This includes $1,000,000 in direct appropriations 
     and a transfer of $14,957,000 from the Working Capital Fund. 
     The JABS program office may transfer both prior year 
     unobligated and current year JABS funds between components as 
     necessary to accelerate the deployment of the system 
     nationwide without recourse to a reprogramming. The JABS 
     program office is directed to report to the Committees on 
     Appropriations as necessary regarding the status of program 
     deployment.


                       NARROWBAND COMMUNICATIONS

       The conference agreement includes a total of $104,615,000 
     for narrowband communications conversion activities as 
     proposed by the House, instead of $204,549,000 as proposed by 
     the Senate. This includes $94,615,000 in direct 
     appropriations and a $10,000,000 transfer from the Working 
     Capital Fund. The conferees note that there is $105,000,000 
     in prior year carryover in this account. The conference 
     agreement provides funding necessary to continue 
     implementation of the Department of Justice Wireless Network 
     and for operations and maintenance of legacy systems. The 
     conference agreement does not include language from the 
     Senate report regarding transfers from the Judiciary or the 
     State Department, or availability of funds for this account. 
     Instead, the Wireless Management Office is directed to 
     submit, as part of the fiscal year 2003 President's budget 
     submission, a program plan based on the final list of system 
     requirements and a breakout, by fiscal year and activity, of 
     the total program cost based on the program plan.

                         Counterterrorism Fund

       The conference agreement includes $4,989,000 for the 
     Counterterrorism Fund as proposed by the House. The Senate 
     did not fund this program. When combined with $41,077,000 in 
     prior year carryover, this will make a total of $46,066,000 
     available in the Fund for fiscal year 2002 to cover 
     unanticipated, extraordinary expenses as a result of a 
     terrorist threat or incident.

                             Port Security

       The conference agreement does not include $39,950,000 for 
     Port Security as proposed by

[[Page H8003]]

     the Senate. The House did not address this matter.
       The conferees believe that the Maritime Administration 
     (MARAD) is better suited to administer a port security 
     program. The conferees support any actions taken by MARAD to 
     work with local ports to improve security.


                   ADMINISTRATIVE REVIEW AND APPEALS

       The conference agreement includes $173,647,000 for 
     Administrative Review and Appeals, instead of $178,751,000 as 
     proposed by the House and $45,813,000 as proposed by the 
     Senate.
       The conference agreement includes $12,940,000 for 
     inflationary costs and other adjustments to base. The 
     conferees direct that the Executive Office of Immigration 
     Review fully fund contract court interpreter services as 
     necessary. The conferees adopt by reference the House 
     reporting requirement regarding the detention of criminal 
     aliens, but direct that the Immigration and Naturalization 
     Service prepare this report and submit it to the Committees 
     on Appropriations by December 28, 2001.


                           DETENTION TRUSTEE

       The conference agreement includes $1,000,000 for the 
     Federal Detention Trustee, instead of $1,721,000 as proposed 
     by the House, and $88,884,000 as proposed by the Senate. The 
     conferees note that once again the Department has failed to 
     centralize funding for the Department's detention needs under 
     the Detention Trustee account as required by the fiscal year 
     2001 conference report. The Attorney General is directed, as 
     part of the fiscal year 2003 budget submission, to include 
     either a funding proposal to fully centralize all detention 
     funding under the Detention Trustee, or a plan for the 
     orderly shutdown of this office.


                      OFFICE OF INSPECTOR GENERAL

       The conference agreement includes $50,735,000 for the 
     Office of Inspector General as proposed by the House, instead 
     of $46,006,000 as proposed by the Senate.
       The conference agreement adopts by reference the House 
     report language regarding the provision of $5,000,000 to 
     expand the Inspector General's authorities in investigating 
     allegations of employee misconduct within the FBI and the 
     Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA).

                    United States Parole Commission


                         SALARIES AND EXPENSES

       The conference agreement includes $9,876,000 for the United 
     States Parole Commission, instead of $10,915,000 as proposed 
     by the House and $8,836,000 as proposed by the Senate.
       The conferees are aware that the Parole Commission is 
     scheduled to be phased out in November 2002. The conferees 
     are also aware that a substantial parole caseload, the 
     majority of which is District of Columbia prisoners, will 
     exist well into the future. As part of the fiscal year 2003 
     budget submission, the Attorney General is directed to 
     propose either an extension of the existing Commission or the 
     transfer of the residual caseload to a Federal or District of 
     Columbia agency. In the event the latter is proposed, the 
     budget submission should include a plan for the orderly 
     shutdown of the Parole Commission.

                            Legal Activities


            SALARIES AND EXPENSES, GENERAL LEGAL ACTIVITIES

       The conference agreement includes $549,176,000 for General 
     Legal Activities, instead of $568,011,000 as proposed by the 
     House and $527,543,000 as proposed by the Senate.
       The conference agreement adopts by reference the House 
     report language and funding levels for the Civil Rights 
     Division to enforce the Victims of Trafficking and Protection 
     Act of 2000 and to investigate and prosecute abuses in 
     facilities for individuals who are mentally ill and 
     developmentally disabled, nursing homes, juvenile 
     correctional facilities, and adult jails and prisons.
       The conference agreement adopts by reference the Senate 
     report language and funding levels for the Criminal 
     Division's Child Exploitation and Obscenity section, Computer 
     Crime and Intellectual Property section, and Office of 
     Enforcement Operations, and the Civil Division's All Other 
     Torts section.
       Within the Environment and Natural Resources Division's 
     base, the conference agreement adopts by reference the Senate 
     report language on the prosecution of drug labs in Federal 
     parklands and poaching on Federal lands.
       The Department is directed to notify the Committees of its 
     fiscal year 2002 spending plan incorporating the above 
     initiatives no later than January 15, 2002. The plan will not 
     be subject to Committee approval unless it alters or fails to 
     incorporate any of the aforementioned items.


               THE NATIONAL CHILDHOOD VACCINE INJURY ACT

       The conference agreement includes a reimbursement of 
     $4,028,000 for fiscal year 2002 from the Vaccine Injury 
     Compensation Trust Fund to the Department of Justice, as 
     proposed by the House and Senate.


                   LEGAL ACTIVITIES OFFICE AUTOMATION

       The conference agreement includes $15,765,000 for Legal 
     Activities Office Automation, instead of $34,600,000 as 
     proposed by the Senate. The House provided $18,835,000 for 
     Legal Activities Office Automation through the ``Salaries and 
     Expenses, General Legal Activities'' appropriation. The 
     conference agreement adopts the Senate language creating this 
     new account structure.
       The conferees expect the Department to provide an 
     additional $18,835,000 for Legal Activities Office Automation 
     from the Working Capital Fund.


               SALARIES AND EXPENSES, ANTITRUST DIVISION

       The conference agreement provides $130,791,000 for the 
     Antitrust Division as proposed by the Senate, instead of 
     $141,366,000 as proposed by the House. This amount will be 
     offset with Hart-Scott-Rodino fee collections, regardless of 
     the year of collection, resulting in no direct 
     appropriations. The conference agreement adopts the Senate 
     bill language structure.


             SALARIES AND EXPENSES, UNITED STATES ATTORNEYS

       The conference agreement includes $1,353,968,000 for the 
     United States Attorneys as proposed by the House, instead of 
     $1,260,353,000 as proposed by the Senate.
       The conference agreement includes $9,000,000 for Project 
     Sentry. This will establish new Federal-State partnerships 
     that will support and expand Project Safe Neighborhood, 
     particularly focusing on school safety, and identifying and 
     prosecuting juveniles who violate State and Federal firearms 
     laws and adults who illegally furnish firearms to them.
       The conference agreement adopts by reference the House 
     report language regarding habeas corpus overload, and adopts 
     Senate report language regarding fundamental reform of United 
     States Attorneys operations, gun prosecutions in Colorado, 
     and the National Advocacy Center, including the distance 
     learning facility. In addition, the conference agreement 
     provides such sums as may be necessary for court technology 
     and computer and telecommunications coordinators.
       The conference agreement directs the United States 
     Attorneys to provide a total of $10,000,000 for cybercrime 
     and intellectual property enforcement. The direction included 
     in both the House and Senate reports regarding the submission 
     of a report on copyright enforcement is adopted by reference.
       The conference agreement does not include language in the 
     Senate bill and report regarding gun surveillance technology 
     and state and local training on child pornography 
     investigations. Instead, both projects were funded under the 
     Office of Justice Programs. The conference agreement includes 
     $6,500,000 under the Office of Justice Programs, Justice 
     Assistance, to assist State and local law enforcement 
     agencies to acquire the necessary knowledge, equipment, and 
     personnel resources to prevent, interdict, or investigate 
     child sexual exploitation.


                   UNITED STATES TRUSTEE SYSTEM FUND

       The conference agreement provides $147,000,000 for the 
     United States Trustees, to be funded entirely from offsetting 
     collections, instead of $145,937,000 as proposed by the House 
     and $154,044,000 as proposed by the Senate.
       The conference agreement adopts by reference the House 
     report language regarding funding various automation projects 
     through the Working Capital Fund, and the Senate report 
     language on the National Advocacy Center.


      SALARIES AND EXPENSES, FOREIGN CLAIMS SETTLEMENT COMMISSION

       The conference agreement includes $1,136,000 for the 
     Foreign Claims Settlement Commission as proposed by the 
     House, instead of $1,130,000 as proposed by the Senate.


         SALARIES AND EXPENSES, UNITED STATES MARSHALS SERVICE

       The conference agreement includes $619,429,000 for the U.S. 
     Marshals Service (USMS) salaries and expenses account, 
     instead of $622,646,000 as proposed by the House and 
     $644,746,000 as proposed by the Senate. The conference 
     agreement adopts by reference Senate language and funding 
     levels for the Warrant Information Network and other networks 
     and on-line services, including the transfer from the Justice 
     Detainee Information System, recurring costs of the 
     Electronic Surveillance Unit, and the transfer of funds from 
     Human Resources to the Central Courthouse Management Group 
     for safety and health programs. The conference agreement does 
     not adopt Senate language regarding increases to the base, 
     except those specifically addressed below, or the transfer of 
     Justice Prisoner and Alien Transportation System funding from 
     this account to the Detention Trustee. The conference 
     agreement includes $500,000 for Special Operations Group 
     training, equipment, and facilities maintenance and $583,000 
     for permanent changes of station. The latter two items should 
     be treated as permanent increases to the base. The conference 
     agreement does not include Senate language or funding levels 
     referencing courthouse security personnel, terrorism or 
     radios, or House language and funding levels regarding 
     District of Columbia revitalization. The conference agreement 
     includes language providing not to exceed 4,128 positions and 
     3,993 full time equivalents for the Marshals Service as 
     proposed by the House. The Senate did not include a similar 
     provision.
       Overseas Assignments.--The conferees are aware that the 
     U.S. Marshals Service has established a number of foreign 
     offices in U.S. embassies without Congressional approval, 
     using extended temporary duty assignments to circumvent the 
     relocation report process. Therefore, the conferees direct 
     the Justice Management Division to report by November 30, 
     2001, to the Committees on Appropriations regarding the 
     locations and purposes of

[[Page H8004]]

     all Marshals overseas assignments of greater than 30 days for 
     the previous five years. The Department is directed to 
     terminate all Marshals overseas operations that should have 
     been included in the relocation report. Finally, none of the 
     funds appropriated or otherwise made available by this Act 
     may be used for Marshals overseas temporary duty assignments 
     of greater than 30 days without the approval of the 
     Committees on Appropriations.
       Financial Management.--The conferees are concerned that, 
     even with a reformed budget execution process, a small budget 
     shortfall in the Marshals Service at the beginning of the 
     year was left unaddressed until well into the fourth quarter, 
     despite sharp prompting from the Committees on 
     Appropriations. Therefore, the conferees direct the Marshals 
     Service to submit, through the Justice Management Division, 
     within 30 days of the date of enactment of this Act, an 
     overall agency spending plan for the full amount appropriated 
     for fiscal year 2002.
       Special Assignments.--The conferees are concerned that 
     special assignment funds, provided for contingencies, are 
     being used to subsidize base activities. This misuse of 
     emergency funding threatens to undermine the budget execution 
     process. Therefore, the conferees direct that management of 
     all operations associated with the New York City and East 
     Africa bombing trials, including protective details, be 
     returned to the Southern District of New York, that all costs 
     associated with these operations be budgeted out of base 
     funds, and that a multi-agency security review of these 
     operations be undertaken immediately. This review shall be 
     provided to the Committees on Appropriations when completed. 
     In addition, the conferees direct that, within two weeks of 
     the date of enactment of this Act, the Marshals shall 
     identify to the Committees on Appropriations the total amount 
     available for special assignments in fiscal year 2002. 
     Thereafter, obligations of special assignment funds shall 
     require the notification of the Committees on Appropriations.
       Fugitive Apprehensions.--The conference agreement provides 
     increases of $3,150,000 for Electronic Surveillance Unit 
     personnel and equipment and $5,825,000 for the establishment 
     of dedicated fugitive task forces on both coasts as proposed 
     by the Senate.
       Courthouse Security Staffing and Prisoner Transportation.--
     The total amount of funding provided also includes increases 
     of $3,625,000 for courthouse security personnel for existing 
     and new courthouses, and $1,451,000 for prisoner 
     transportation.
       Courthouse Security Equipment.--The conference agreement 
     includes a new appropriation for the USMS, ``courthouse 
     security equipment,'' as proposed by the Senate. The House 
     did not include a similar provision. The conference agreement 
     includes $14,267,000 for these activities, instead of

         JUSTICE PRISONER AND ALIEN TRANSPORTATION SYSTEM FUND

       The conference agreement does not include funding for the 
     USMS Justice Prisoner and Alien Transportation System 
     account, as proposed by the House, instead of $53,050,000 as 
     proposed by the Senate.


                       FEDERAL PRISONER DETENTION

       The conference agreement provides $706,182,000 for Federal 
     Prisoner Detention, instead of $724,682,000 as proposed by 
     the House and $687,682,000 as proposed by the Senate. This is 
     an increase of $110,094,000, or 18 percent, over the fiscal 
     year 2001 appropriation. The Department should notify the 
     Committees on Appropriations by the end of the second quarter 
     regarding the status of obligations in this account.


                     FEES AND EXPENSES OF WITNESSES

       The conference agreement includes $156,145,000 for Fees and 
     Expenses of Witnesses as proposed by the Senate, instead of 
     $148,494,000 as proposed by the House.


           SALARIES AND EXPENSES, COMMUNITY RELATIONS SERVICE

       The conference agreement includes $9,269,000 for the 
     Community Relations Service, as proposed by both the House 
     and Senate.
       The conference agreement includes a provision allowing the 
     Attorney General to transfer up to $1,000,000 to this 
     program, as proposed by the House and Senate. The Attorney 
     General is expected to notify the Committees if this transfer 
     authority is exercised. In addition, a provision is included 
     allowing the Attorney General to transfer additional 
     resources, subject to reprogramming requirements, upon a 
     determination that emergent circumstances warrant additional 
     funding, as proposed by the House.


                         ASSETS FORFEITURE FUND

       The conference agreement provides $22,949,000 for the 
     Assets Forfeiture Fund as proposed by Senate, instead of 
     $21,949,000 as proposed by the House.

                    Radiation Exposure Compensation


                        ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES

       The conference agreement includes $1,996,000 for 
     administrative expenses for the Radiation Exposure 
     Compensation Act, as proposed by the House and Senate.


       PAYMENT TO THE RADIATION EXPOSURE COMPENSATION TRUST FUND

       The conference agreement does not include funding to make 
     payment to the Radiation Exposure Compensation Trust Fund, 
     instead of $10,776,000 as proposed by the House and Senate.
       The conferees believe that the Federal government must meet 
     its obligations to persons, and their families, who were 
     exposed to radiation and who now suffer from related 
     diseases. The conferees note that the compensation payments 
     are based on claimants meeting eligibility criteria and 
     therefore should be scored or treated as mandatory payments 
     under the Budget Act. Such payments were assumed in the 
     fiscal year 2002 congressional budget resolution to be scored 
     as mandatory with enactment of appropriate legislation 
     starting in fiscal year 2002. Supplemental appropriations 
     were provided for fiscal year 2001 with the understanding and 
     expectation that future funding for this purpose would be 
     mandatory and that further discretionary appropriations would 
     not be necessary.

                      Interagency Law Enforcement


                 INTERAGENCY CRIME AND DRUG ENFORCEMENT

       The conference agreement provides $338,577,000 for 
     Interagency Crime and Drug Enforcement, instead of 
     $340,189,000 as proposed by the House and $336,966,000 as 
     proposed by the Senate. Of the amounts provided, $500,000 
     shall be made available to equip the Federal gun range 
     replacing the closed range at Rocky Flats, Colorado, for use 
     by Federal, state and local law enforcement. The conferees 
     adopt by reference the Senate language regarding the 
     Immigration and Naturalization Service 25 percent matching 
     requirement. The distribution of the total available funding, 
     which reflects a permanent reprogramming of $450,000 from the

     in new budget authority for the Salaries and Expenses account 
     of the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) as proposed by 
     the House, instead of $3,425,041,000 as proposed by the 
     Senate. Of this amount, not less than $459,243,000 shall be 
     used for counterterrorism investigations, foreign 
     counterintelligence, and other activities related to national 
     security, instead of $448,467,000 as proposed by the House 
     and $485,278,000 as proposed by the Senate.
       The conference agreement includes an increase of 
     $122,119,000 for inflationary increases and other adjustments 
     to base to support the FBI's current staffing and operating 
     level as reflected in the budget request. The conference 
     agreement does not adopt the new budget structure proposed by 
     the Senate.
       The conference agreement also includes programmatic 
     increases of $140,472,000. The FBI is reminded that changes 
     in this distribution are subject to the reprogramming 
     requirements in section 605 of this Act.

     Response Team training, Evidence Response Team supplies, 
     interception capabilities, counter-encryption equipment, 
     white-collar crime computer equipment, forensic research, the 
     forensic audio/video program, regional mitochondrial DNA lab 
     oversight, the National Instant Background Check System, and 
     drug jurisdiction. The conference agreement does not include 
     language or funding levels in the Senate report regarding 
     regional computer forensic labs, regional mitchondrial DNA 
     labs, the Violent Criminal Apprehension Program, or end 
     strength. The conference agreement also adopts by reference 
     the House and Senate report language regarding the Jewelry 
     and Gem program.
       Trafficking in Persons.--The conferees expect the FBI to 
     continue its support of the Southeast European Cooperative 
     Initiative with regard to its efforts to combat trafficking 
     in women and children.
       Trilogy.--The conference agreement includes a total of 
     $142,390,000 for Trilogy, of which $74,730,000 is base 
     funding, $29,565,000 is derived from a Working Capital Fund 
     transfer, and $38,095,000 is provided in new direct 
     appropriations.
       Quantico Laboratory.--The conference agreement provides a 
     total of $36,602,000 for laboratory activation, including a 
     transfer of $24,837,000 from the Working Capital Fund for 
     laboratory equipment and $11,765,000 for moving costs, fit 
     out, and operations and maintenance. If prior year recoveries 
     or other funds become available, the FBI should seek a 
     reprogramming to initiate decommissioning and renovation of 
     former lab space in the J. Edgar Hoover Building.
       The conference agreement directs the FBI to fully reimburse 
     private ambulance providers for their costs in support of 
     Hostage Rescue Team operations in St. Martin Parish, 
     Louisiana, in December 1999, as proposed by the Senate. The 
     House did not include a similar provision.
       The conference agreement includes language limiting the FBI 
     to not exceed 24,935 positions and 24,488 full time 
     equivalents, as proposed by the House. The Senate did not 
     include a similar provision. The conference agreement also 
     includes a provision that provides for up to 1,354 passenger 
     motor vehicles, of which 1,190 will be for replacement only, 
     as proposed by the Senate, instead of 1,236 and 1,142, 
     respectively, as proposed by the House.


                              construction

       The conference agreement includes $33,791,000 for 
     construction for the FBI, instead of $1,250,000 as requested 
     and proposed by the House and $44,074,000 as proposed by the 
     Senate. This includes funding for an annex at the Engineering 
     Research Facility that will support consolidation of various 
     high technology programs on the FBI Academy campus in 
     Quantico, Virginia.
       Hazardous Devices School.--The conferees recognize the 
     FBI's mission to prevent and detect terrorist activities and 
     understand the importance preparedness plays in achieving 
     this mission, particularly as it relates to Weapons of Mass 
     Destruction (WMD). An essential element of an effective U.S. 
     response to WMD incidents rests with first responders, 
     including public safety bomb squads. All state and local bomb 
     technicians are trained and certified at the Hazardous 
     Devices School (HDS) at the Redstone Arsenal in Huntsville, 
     Alabama, which is operated jointly by the FBI and the U.S. 
     Army. The conferees approve of the transfer of $9,000,000 in 
     no year funds from the Department of Defense to the FBI for 
     the construction of practical training villages for the HDS. 
     These villages will be used for realistic training exercises. 
     Further, the conferees support the transfer from DOD of an 
     additional $14,000,000 in no year funds to be used by the FBI 
     for the construction of a classroom building at the HDS.

       The conference agreement includes $1,481,783,000 for the 
     Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) Salaries and Expenses 
     account, instead of $1,476,083,000 as proposed by the House 
     and $1,489,779,000 as proposed by the Senate.
       Budget and Financial Management.--The conference agreement 
     adopts by reference the language included in the Senate 
     report regarding budget and financial management. The 
     conference agreement includes bill language, as proposed by 
     the House, providing not to exceed 7,654 positions and 7,515 
     full time equivalents for DEA from funds provided in this 
     Act. The Senate did not include a similar provision. The 
     conference agreement also includes bill language, as proposed 
     by the Senate, to provide two year funding authority for

     drug and chemical conversion, and $5,377,000 for research, 
     engineering, and technical operations.
       FIREBIRD Implementation.--The conference agreement includes 
     an increase of $19,400,000 for FIREBIRD implementation, 
     including increases of $2,500,000 for deployment, $1,900,000 
     for network security, and $15,000,000 for technology renewal. 
     DEA is directed to continue to provide quarterly FIREBIRD 
     status and obligation reports to the Committees on 
     Appropriations.
       Forensic Support.--The conference agreement includes an 
     increase of $13,104,000, as provided by both the House and 
     Senate, to support additional chemists and purchase 
     laboratory equipment. The conference agreement adopts by 
     reference House language regarding distribution of this 
     funding.
       In addition, $6,750,000 is provided to procure one twin 
     engine medium lift helicopter

[[Page H8006]]

     to meet enforcement needs in Hawaii, and one single engine 
     light aircraft helicopter for drug enforcement activities 
     elsewhere. The conferees adopt by reference House and Senate 
     language regarding the Caribbean Initiative, High Intensity 
     Drug Trafficking Areas, heroin, OxyContin, MDMA, 
     methamphetamines, and Special Investigative Units.
       In addition, the conference agreement includes a total of 
     $20,000,000 under the Community Oriented Policing Services 
     Methamphetamine/Drug ``Hot Spots'' program for DEA to assist 
     State and local law enforcement agencies with the costs 
     associated with methamphetamine clean up.
       Drug Diversion Control Fee Account.--The conference 
     agreement includes total funding of $86,021,000 for DEA's 
     Drug Diversion Control Program for fiscal year 2002, of which 
     $67,000,000 is from new diversion fee collections and 
     $19,021,000 is from prior year collections. The conference 
     agreement assumes that the level of balances in the Fee 
     Account is sufficient to fully support diversion control 
     programs in fiscal year 2002.

                 Immigration and Naturalization Service


                         SALARIES AND EXPENSES

       The conference agreement includes $3,371,440,000 for the 
     salaries and expenses of the Immigration and Naturalization 
     Service (INS) as proposed by the House, instead of 
     $3,176,037,000 as proposed by the Senate. In addition to the 
     amounts appropriated, the conference agreement assumes that 
     $2,142,926,000 will be available from offsetting fee 
     collections, instead of $2,140,610,000 as proposed by the 
     House and $2,058,723,000 as proposed by the Senate. Thus, 
     including resources provided under the Construction account, 
     the conference agreement provides a total operating level of 
     $5,642,820,000 for the INS, instead of $5,640,504,000 as 
     proposed by the House and $5,506,299,000 as proposed by the 
     Senate. This funding level is an increase of $841,332,000, or 
     18 percent, over fiscal year 2001.
       INS Organization and Management.--Consistent with the 
     concept of separating immigration enforcement from services, 
     the conference agreement continues to use, as in the last 
     three fiscal years, two accounts, as requested by the 
     President and proposed in the House bill: Enforcement and 
     Border Affairs, and Citizenship and Benefits, Immigration 
     Support and Program Direction. INS enforcement funds are 
     provided in the Enforcement and Border Affairs account. All 
     immigration-related benefits and naturalization, support, and 
     program resources are provided in the Citizenship and 
     Benefits, Immigration Support and Program Direction account. 
     Neither account includes revenues generated in various fee 
     accounts to fund program activities for both enforcement and 
     services functions, which are in addition to the appropriated 
     funds and are discussed below. Funds for INS construction 
     projects continue to be provided in the INS construction 
     account.
       The conference agreement includes bill language which 
     provides authority for the Attorney General to transfer funds 
     from one account to another in order to ensure that funds are 
     properly aligned. Such transfers may occur notwithstanding 
     any transfer limitations imposed under this Act, but such 
     transfers are still subject to the reprogramming requirements 
     under Section 605 of this Act. It is expected that any 
     request for transfer of funds will remain within the 
     activities under those headings.
       A cap on overtime of $30,000 per employee per calendar year 
     has been in place the last several years in order to help the 
     INS maintain control over its budget. The conference 
     agreement maintains this limit as provided in the House bill, 
     but provides the INS Commissioner the flexibility to exceed 
     the cap as necessary for national security purposes and in 
     cases of immigration emergencies. The Senate bill limited 
     overtime to $1,153 per employee per pay period. The INS is 
     directed to submit to the Committees on Appropriations 
     quarterly reports on overtime expenditures by employee, 
     activity and district. It is expected that funding provided 
     in this act for 570 additional Border Patrol agents, 348 
     additional land border inspectors, new airport and seaport 
     inspectors funded by the fee increases, as well as additional 
     agents and inspectors that may be funded in other 
     Appropriations Acts during this fiscal year, will reduce the 
     need for overtime beyond $30,000 per employee for the 
     calendar year.
       The conference agreement includes a provision limiting the 
     number of non-career personnel appointments at the INS to six 
     positions, instead of a limit of four positions as proposed 
     by the House and no limit as proposed by the Senate. This 
     level represents an increase of 50 percent above the current 
     ceiling for non-career appointments at INS. The conferees 
     expect the Commissioner to use this increased authority to 
     hire qualified personnel with management and information 
     technology expertise who can contribute to the goal of 
     fundamental INS reform. The conferees will consider a request 
     for additional non-career hiring authority or other personnel 
     authority options above this ceiling during the fiscal year 
     2003 budget process. The conferees expect that a detailed 
     proposal outlining both the need for such additional 
     authorities and how they relate to proposed INS restructuring 
     and management reforms, to be coordinated with the Department 
     of Justice, the Office of Personnel Management, and the 
     Office of Management and Budget, will accompany the INS 
     fiscal year 2003 budget submission.
       The conference agreement also modifies language from the 
     House bill to provide that when positions become vacant in 
     the Offices of Legislative Affairs and Public Affairs, at 
     least ten of these positions be filled with detailees, 
     transfers, or other non-permanent staff, with the goal of 
     rotating staff who have experience in INS field operations 
     through these offices. The Senate bill included a different 
     version of this provision.
       Base adjustments.--The conference agreement provides a 
     total increase of $80,110,000 and 429 full time equivalents 
     for inflationary cost increases and adjustments to base for 
     INS salaries and expenses. The conference agreement does not 
     include transfers to the Exams Fees account or the Breached 
     Bond/Detention account as proposed by the Senate.


                     enforcement and border affairs

       The conference agreement provides $2,739,695,000 for this 
     account, instead of $2,738,517,000 as proposed by the House. 
     The Senate did not provide separate funding for this account. 
     This amount includes an increase of $74,911,000 and 417 full 
     time equivalents for pay and inflationary adjustments for 
     Border Patrol, Investigations, Detention and Deportation, 
     and Intelligence, as requested. None of these amounts 
     include offsetting fees, which are used to fund both 
     enforcement and services functions. The INS is directed to 
     notify the Committees on Appropriations regarding the 
     assignment of all new border patrol agents and inspectors 
     provided for in this Act as well as any other 
     Appropriations Acts that may be enacted during fiscal year 
     2002.
       Border Control and Management.--The conference agreement 
     includes increases of $123,331,000 for border control and 
     management, as follows:
       Land Border Inspectors.--The conference agreement includes 
     an increase of $25,408,000 for 348 new land border ports-of-
     entry inspectors as proposed by the Senate. The House did not 
     include a similar provision. The INS is expected to assign 
     these new inspectors to the highest priority locations, 
     paying particular attention to the Northern Border.
       Border Patrol Agents.--The conference agreement includes an 
     increase of $66,352,000 to hire 570 additional border patrol 
     agents, as proposed by the House, instead of $75,000,000 as 
     proposed by the Senate. Senate language regarding assignment 
     of border patrol agents is adopted by reference. In addition, 
     an increase of $2,076,000 is provided for new border patrol 
     vehicles, instead of the funding level referenced by the 
     Senate. The House did not include a similar provision. The 
     conferees understand that the INS spent about $100,000,000 to 
     acquire 2,762 replacement and enhancement vehicles in fiscal 
     year 2001 using base funds, enhancement funds, and 
     recoveries.
       Detention and Removals.--The conference agreement also 
     includes increases of $20,823,000 for consolidated bed space 
     expansion needs, instead of $39,388,000 as proposed by the 
     House and no funding as proposed by the Senate. This amount 
     includes an increase of $10,154,000 for additional detention 
     staff, support staff and removal costs; an increase of 
     $1,873,000 for detainee transportation vehicles; and an 
     increase of $8,796,000 for Joint Prisoner and Alien 
     Transportation System (JPATS) requirements to support 
     additional domestic and repatriation movements. The 
     conference agreement does not include the proposed transfer 
     of funds from INS to the JPATS Fund for this activity, which 
     was recommended by the Senate. In addition, the conference 
     agreement also includes an increase of $8,672,000 as proposed 
     by the House for detainee medical costs. The Senate did not 
     include a similar provision.
       Interior Enforcement.--The conference agreement also 
     includes funding as necessary to support an additional Quick 
     Response Team (QRT) for New Jersey, if merited. The INS is 
     directed to consult with the Committees on Appropriations 
     regarding the status of its interior enforcement effort. The 
     conference agreement does not adopt Senate language regarding 
     QRTs.
       Border Patrol Equipment and Technology.-- The conference 
     agreement adopts by reference the Senate report language and 
     funding levels regarding the Integrated Surveillance 
     Intelligence System systems engineering, and the House 
     language regarding border patrol equipment.
       IDENT/IAFIS.--The conference agreement provides a transfer 
     of $9,000,000 from the Working Capital Fund to the Department 
     of Justice General Administration account to provide for the 
     continued integration of the INS and FBI fingerprint 
     identification systems. This amount reflects a current 
     estimate of the funding need as provided to the Committees on 
     Appropriations by the Department of Justice.
       In addition, the conferees adopt by reference House 
     language regarding enforcement of section 212 of the 
     Immigration and Nationality Act. The Senate did not include a 
     similar provision. Further, the INS is directed to ensure 
     that it does not allow any aliens to enter the United States 
     who have been involved in the illegal harvesting of human 
     organs.
       The conference agreement adopts by reference House language 
     regarding the Tucson Sector. The conference agreement does 
     not include language on basic training costs as proposed by 
     the Senate. The House did not address this matter.


  citizenship and benefits, immigration support and program direction

       The conference agreement provides $631,745,000 for this 
     account, instead of

[[Page H8007]]

     $632,923,000 as proposed by the House. The Senate did not 
     provide separate funding for this account. This amount 
     includes an increase of $5,199,000 and 12 full time 
     equivalents for pay and inflationary adjustments for the 
     activities of Citizenship and Benefits, Immigration Support, 
     and Management and Administration, as requested. None of 
     these amounts include offsetting fees, which are used to fund 
     both enforcement and services functions.
       Immigration Services.--The conference agreement includes an 
     increase of $45,000,000, as requested and proposed by the 
     House, to support naturalization and other benefits 
     processing backlog reduction activities. The Senate did not 
     include a similar provision. This amount, when combined with 
     $35,000,000 in base funding and $20,000,000 in fees, will 
     provide $100,000,000 toward reaching a universal six-month 
     processing standard for all immigration applications and 
     petitions. The conference agreement does not include Senate 
     language that transferred $67,000,000 to the Immigration 
     Service and Infrastructure Account. The House did not address 
     this matter.
       In addition, an increase of $1,000,000 is provided for 
     legal orientation programs, instead of $2,800,000 as proposed 
     by the Senate, and an increase of $3,000,000 is provided for 
     alternatives to detention, instead of $7,300,000 as proposed 
     by the Senate. The House did not include similar provisions.
       Further, the conferees adopt by reference Senate direction 
     to provide $5,500,000 to the Eastern Adjudication Service 
     Center to process immigration self-petitions and U visas 
     under the Violence Against Women Act, and T visas under the 
     Victims of Trafficking and Violence Protection Act, and agree 
     that of this amount, $500,000 shall be for the Eastern 
     Adjudication Center as directed by the Senate. The House did 
     not contain a similar provision.
       The Committees continue to be concerned about the problems 
     of backlogs in application processing and casework, and 
     deficiencies in other services. In the fiscal year 2001 
     conference report, the INS was directed to conduct a complete 
     review of staffing and resource needs to improve benefits and 
     services in all current INS offices, as well as the need for 
     additional offices, particularly in rural areas. The 
     Committees have yet to receive this review. Therefore, the 
     INS is directed to allocate additional staffing and upgrade 
     offices as necessary for the following areas: Roanoke, 
     Virginia; Omaha, Nebraska; Nashville, Tennessee, as described 
     in the Senate report; Patterson, New Jersey; the Bronx, New 
     York; Las Vegas, Nevada, as described in the Senate report; 
     and the other locations mentioned in the fiscal year 2001 
     conference report.
       In addition to identical provisions included by both the 
     House and Senate, the conference agreement includes the 
     following provisions: (1) a limit of 3,165 passenger motor 
     vehicles, of which 2,211 are for replacement only, as 
     proposed by the House, instead of the Senate proposed limit; 
     (2) a prohibition on the use of funds to operate the San 
     Clemente and Temecula traffic checkpoints unless certain 
     conditions are met, as proposed in the House bill; (3) a 
     provision, as proposed by the House, to make available $5,000 
     for official reception and representation expenses; and (4) a 
     provision, as proposed by the House, to permit the INS to 
     equip, maintain, and make infrastructure improvements and 
     purchase vehicles for police type use within the Enforcement 
     and Border Affairs account.


                       OFFSETTING FEE COLLECTIONS

       The conference agreement assumes $2,142,926,000 will be 
     available from offsetting fee collections, instead of 
     $2,140,610,000 as proposed by the House and $2,058,723,000 as 
     proposed by the Senate, to support activities related to the 
     legal admission of persons into the United States. These 
     activities are funded entirely by fees paid by persons who 
     are either traveling internationally or who are applying for 
     immigration benefits. The following levels are recommended:
       Immigration Inspections User Fees.--The conference 
     agreement includes $591,866,000 of spending from offsetting 
     collections in this account, the same amount requested and 
     proposed by the House, instead of $656,648,000 as proposed by 
     the Senate. This amount represents a $97,482,000 increase 
     over fiscal year 2001 spending, including $20,991,000 for 
     adjustments to base, the full amount requested. The amount 
     also assumes an increase from $6 to $7 for the current 
     airline passenger immigration inspection user fee, and $3 for 
     a new immigration inspection cruise ship passenger fee. The 
     conferees adopt by reference Senate language directing that 
     not less than nine percent of fee collections in this account 
     should be used for technology infrastructure improvements. 
     The House did not address this matter.
       The expected increase in fee collections will fund the 
     following safety, service and technology improvements at 
     airports: $19,927,000, 459 positions and 230 full time 
     equivalents to increase primary inspectors at new and 
     existing airport terminals, as well as at high growth 
     terminals; and $4,510,000, 60 positions and 30 full time 
     equivalents for additional Immigration Inspectors to expand 
     INS/U.S. Customs Service passenger analysis units at airports 
     to analyze traveler information in advance of plane arrivals 
     in order to identify inadmissible aliens, including criminal 
     aliens, drug traffickers, and terrorists. This funding level 
     will also enable the INS to invest at least $14,370,000 in 
     its automated entry/exit system that tracks alien arrivals 
     and departures at airports. This funding level will also fund 
     at least $6,425,000 for upgrades to the National Automated 
     Inspection Lookout System (NAILS), and for additional Live 
     Scan Devices that can send electronic fingerprint submissions 
     to the FBI's Integrated Automated Fingerprint Identification 
     System (IAFIS). The funding level will also provide an 
     additional $6,512,000 for additional Detention Enforcement 
     Officers, Deportation Officers, and docket clerks, and 200 
     additional detention beds.
       In addition, this level will fund the following safety, 
     service and technology improvements at seaports: $4,153,000, 
     54 positions and 27 full time equivalents for new immigration 
     inspectors at newly activated seaport terminals and current 
     understaffed terminals; $2,273,000, 20 positions and 10 full 
     time equivalents for joint INS/U.S. Customs units to analyze 
     traveler information in advance of ship arrivals; and 
     $5,545,000 for the automated entry/exit system and upgrades 
     to the NAILS system. The INS is directed to ensure that it 
     allocates funding for base activities, e.g. salaries and 
     expenses, before it undertakes any enhancement activities. 
     The INS shall report to the Committees on Appropriations as 
     necessary should fee revenues decline more than five percent 
     from October projections. Further, should additional fees 
     become available, the INS may submit a reprogramming in 
     accordance with section 605 of this Act.
       Immigration Examinations Fees.--The conference agreement 
     includes a total of $1,376,871,000 to support the 
     adjudication of applications for immigration benefits, the 
     amount requested and proposed by the House, instead of 
     $1,258,088,000 as proposed by the Senate. These funds are 
     derived from offsetting collections from persons applying for 
     immigration benefits, including collections from the premium-
     processing fee, and are in addition to $80,000,000 in new and 
     continued direct appropriations provided under the 
     Citizenship and Benefits, Immigration Support, and Program 
     Direction account to eliminate the backlog in applications. 
     The conference agreement reflects INS' revised revenue 
     estimates for collections from existing fees, which is 
     $118,783,000 higher than the amount assumed in the budget 
     request and $407,020,000 above the amount available in fiscal 
     year 2001. The conference agreement does not adopt the 
     transfer of $127,834,000 from Examinations Fees funding to 
     the Executive Office of Immigration Review or the transfer of 
     $147,602,000 in activities from the Salaries and Expenses 
     account to the Examinations Fees account, which were proposed 
     by the Senate. The conference agreement adopts by reference 
     House report language regarding the telephone customer 
     service center and the indexing and conversion of INS 
     microfilm images.
       Within the Examinations Fees account, the conference 
     agreement provides $18,979,000 for adjustments to base as 
     requested.
       Land Border Inspections Fees.--The conference agreement 
     includes $4,490,000 in spending from the Land Border 
     Inspection Fund, instead of $2,944,000 as proposed by the 
     House and $1,714,000 as proposed by the Senate. This amount 
     reflects revised estimates of collections. The revenues 
     generated in this account are from Dedicated Commuter Lanes 
     in Blaine and Port Roberts, Washington; Detroit Tunnel and 
     Ambassador Bridge, Michigan; and Otay Mesa, California, as 
     well as from Automated Permit Ports that provide pre-screened 
     local border residents with border crossing privileges by 
     means of automated inspections. The conference agreement 
     adopts the Senate provision, which provides that the Attorney 
     General may expand from 6 to 96 the number of ports of entry 
     qualifying to participate in a fee pilot. The House did not 
     address this matter.
       Immigration Breached Bond/Detention Fund.--The conference 
     agreement includes $120,763,000 in spending from the Breached 
     Bond/Detention Fund as proposed by the Senate, instead of 
     $139,935,000 as proposed by the House. The conference 
     agreement does not assume the reinstatement of section 245(i) 
     of the Immigration and Nationality Act, which was proposed by 
     the Senate. The conference agreement provides a $40,000,000 
     increase, as requested, to fund 1,407 additional detention 
     beds, and $1,483,000 to fund vehicles to transport detainees. 
     The agreement does not include the base transfer to the 
     Breached Bond/Detention Fund account, as proposed in the 
     Senate report.
       Immigration Enforcement Fines.--The conference agreement 
     includes $22,664,000 in spending from Immigration Enforcement 
     fines, instead of $12,994,000 as proposed by the House and 
     $5,510,000 as proposed by the Senate. This level reflects the 
     current estimate of revenues available in this account for 
     fiscal year 2002.
       H-1B Fees.--The conference agreement includes $26,272,000 
     in spending from the H-1B Fee account, instead of $16,000,000 
     proposed by both the House and the Senate. This level 
     reflects the current estimate of revenues available in this 
     account for fiscal year 2002.


                              CONSTRUCTION

       The conference agreement includes $128,454,000 for 
     construction for INS as proposed by the House, instead of 
     $205,015,000 as proposed by the Senate. This amount fully 
     funds the Administration's request as proposed in the budget 
     submission. This funding level does not include the Senate 
     proposal to transfer funding from the Bureau of Prisons

[[Page H8008]]

     buildings and facilities account to the INS construction 
     account, the Senate proposal to allow the INS to purchase 
     construction vehicles, or the Senate proposal to comply with 
     Occupational Safety and Health Administration programs.
       The conference agreement includes language, as proposed by 
     the House and carried in prior Appropriations Acts, 
     prohibiting funds from being used for site acquisition, 
     design, or construction of a checkpoint in the Tucson Sector. 
     The Senate did not include a similar provision.

                         Federal Prison System


                         SALARIES AND EXPENSES

       The conference agreement includes $3,808,600,000 for the 
     salaries and expenses of the Federal Prison System, instead 
     of $3,830,971,000 as proposed by the House and $3,786,228,000 
     as proposed by the Senate. This funding level is an increase 
     of $308,428,000 above the fiscal year 2001 amount. The 
     conferees note that the Bureau of Prisons submitted a 
     reprogramming on September 27, 2001, for $37,963,000 to meet 
     increased utility costs incurred during fiscal year 2001.
       Activation of New Prisons.--The conference agreement

     an increase of $9,100,000 for equipment funding the United 
     States Prison in Canaan, Pennsylvania, and the Federal 
     Corrections Institute in Glenville, West Virginia.

     increase of $47,443,000 to fund an additional 1,500 contract 
     beds to accommodate the increasing number of criminal aliens 
     and to support 1,499 general contract inmates beds, including 
     85 juvenile beds.
       The conference agreement provides that of the funding 
     provided, $11,554,000 is for activation of the Atwater, 
     California facility, and $13,323,000 is for the activation of 
     the facility at Honolulu, Hawaii. The conference adopts by 
     reference House language regarding drug treatment programs 
     and establishment of faith-based and other pilots, and Senate 
     language regarding a pilot internship at the prison at Yazoo 
     City, Mississippi, $1,000,000 for a sexual misconduct study, 
     and a feasibility study for Yazoo City, Mississippi. The 
     conference agreement does not include bill language proposed 
     by the Senate designating specific amounts for activation of 
     specific prisons. The House bill did not include such 
     language.


                        BUILDINGS AND FACILITIES

       The conference agreement includes $813,552,000 for 
     construction, modernization, maintenance, and repair of 
     prison and detention facilities housing Federal prisoners, as 
     provided by the House, instead of $899,797,000 as provided by 
     the Senate. The conference agreement does not include the 
     proposed transfer from BOP to the INS for construction of 
     detainee facilities as provided in the Senate bill. The 
     conference agreement does not include bill language 
     designating specific amounts for partial site and planning 
     for a specific prison, as proposed by the Senate. The 
     conference agreement provides that of the $650,047,000 
     provided for increases as outlined below, $5,000,000 shall be 
     for partial site and planning of the USP Northeast/Mid-

       National Institute of Justice (NIJ).--The conference 
     agreement provides $54,879,000 for NIJ. Within the total 
     amount provided to NIJ, the following initiatives should be 
     funded at least at the current levels:
        National Law Enforcement and Corrections 
     Technology Center system, including $1,500,000 for the Less 
     than Lethal Technology for Law Enforcement Program, 
     $2,800,000 for the Office of Law Enforcement Technology 
     Commercialization, Inc., and $1,500,000 for the Center for 
     Rural Law Enforcement Technology and Training;
        Computerized identification systems;
        Facial Recognition;
        DNA Technology Research and Development; and
        High Intensity Drug Trafficking Areas.
       The conference agreement provides $450,000 for Non-Toxic 
     Drug Detection and Identification Aerosol Technology; 
     $1,500,000 for the ``Breaking the Cycle'' Program in 
     Jacksonville, Florida and Lane County, Oregon; and $3,000,000 
     for a prison health research project at the University of 
     Connecticut.
       The Office of Justice Programs is expected to review a 
     proposal for a grant to the Kitsap County Medical Examiner's 
     Office that will assist in the development of a new death 
     investigation module for the FBI ViCAP system and provide a 
     grant, if warranted.
       The conferees understand that NIJ is currently evaluating 
     the operational utility of the SECURES gunshot detection 
     system in Austin, Texas. This evaluation is scheduled to be 
     completed by August 1, 2002. In the next phase of 
     evaluations, NIJ is expected to consider installing the 
     SECURES gunshot detection system in Richmond, Virginia; San 
     Bernardino, California; and Phoenix, Arizona.
       Office of Victims of Crime.--The conference agreement 
     adopts by reference the Senate report language regarding the 
     Victim Assistance to Indian Country and Children's Justice 
     Act programs.
       Missing Children.--The conference agreement includes 
     $22,997,000 for the Missing Children Program. Of this amount, 
     $11,450,000 is provided for the National Center for Missing 
     and Exploited Children (NCMEC), including $2,245,000 for the 
     CyberTipline and the Exploited Child Unit, and $2,700,000 for 
     the Jimmy Ryce Law Enforcement Training Center. The conferees 
     recommend that the NCMEC consult with I-Safe America to 
     provide nationwide Internet Safety Training in grades K-12.
       Within the amounts provided, $6,500,000 is provided for the 
     Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force to form new units 
     to investigate and prevent child sexual exploitation, which 
     are based on the protocols for conducting investigations 
     involving the Internet and online service providers that have 
     been established by the Department of Justice and the NCMEC.
       Management and Administration.--The conference agreement 
     provides $37,795,000 for the management and administration of 
     the Office of Justice Programs (OJP), instead of $43,491,000 
     as proposed by the House and $42,797,000 as proposed by the 
     Senate. Funding is also provided from the ``Juvenile 
     Justice'' and ``State and Local Law Enforcement Assistance'' 
     accounts for the administration of grants under these 
     activities. If additional management and administration funds 
     are required, a request for reprogramming or transfer of 
     funds, pursuant to Section 605 of this Act, should be 
     submitted. OJP shall submit to the Committees, by January 15, 
     2002, a spending plan for all management and administration 
     resources. This plan should reflect all sources of funding, 
     including those derived from program accounts. Beginning with 
     the fiscal year 2003 budget submission, OJP shall identify 
     all management and administration resources in its budget 
     submission, including those derived from program accounts.
       Counterterrorism Program.--The conference agreement 
     includes $251,494,000 for the counterterrorism program, 
     instead of $220,494,000 as proposed by the House and 
     $373,800,000 as proposed by the Senate.
       The conferees recognize the selfless acts of our Nation's 
     first responders following the September 11, 2001, terrorist 
     attacks on the United States. They are truly our first line 
     of defense. The dedication, professionalism, and heroism of 
     the men and women who serve as police officers, fire 
     fighters, emergency medical personnel, and emergency 
     managers, reflect the true spirit of this great Nation. The 
     conferees extend their sincere gratitude on behalf of the 
     nation to the fire companies, State and local police 
     departments, and rescue squads who responded without 
     hesitation to the emergencies in New York, Virginia, and 
     Pennsylvania. In their efforts to rescue those in danger, 
     some of these brave men and women made the ultimate 
     sacrifice. The conferees also note that untold numbers of 
     volunteers from States across the Nation also worked shoulder 
     to shoulder in the rescue efforts, and their contributions in 
     the face of this tragedy cannot be praised enough.
       The events of September 11 underscore how important it is 
     that this country's first responders have the proper 
     equipment and

[[Page H8009]]

     training in the event of another terrorist act. The conferees 
     recommend the following distribution of funding for 
     counterterrorism equipment grants, training, and research and 
     development programs:

       The conferees continue the direction regarding the 
     distribution of general equipment grants only in accordance 
     with Statewide plans. The conferees understand that these 
     plans are currently being submitted to OJP.
       The conferees are not convinced that sufficient attention 
     is being given to potential chemical and biological threats 
     nationally. Within available resources of the research and 
     development program, OJP should conduct a study, in 
     conjunction with George Mason University, to determine the 
     feasibility for the establishment of a national center for 
     biodefense, which would include the research, development, 
     and production of vaccines to combat biological terrorism.
       The conference agreement includes $7,000,000 to support 
     counterterrorism activities of the Center on Catastrophe 
     Preparedness and Response at New York University (NYU). NYU 
     proposes to bring the expertise of its departments of 
     biomedical science, environmental health, medicine, public 
     health, dentistry, and nursing, among others, to bear on 
     counterterrorism studies. The conferees urge OJP to work with 
     the Center to assure that there is a sufficient focus on 
     chemical and biological threats.
       The conferees are aware of the Joint Vulnerability 
     Assessment Tool that provides the Department of Defense with 
     an antiterrorism vulnerability assessment, risk management, 
     and planning tool. OJP is directed to evaluate whether 
     this program will be beneficial to State and local first 
     responders and emergency planners, and fund its 
     development if warranted.


               STATE AND LOCAL LAW ENFORCEMENT ASSISTANCE

       The conference agreement includes $2,403,354,000 for the 
     State and Local Law Enforcement Assistance Program, instead 
     of $2,519,575,000 as proposed by the House and $2,094,990,000 
     as proposed by the Senate. The conference agreement provides 
     for the following programs:

       Local Law Enforcement Block Grant.--The conference 
     agreement includes $400,000,000 for the Local Law Enforcement 
     Block Grant program as proposed by the Senate, instead of 
     $521,849,000 as proposed by the House. Within the amount 
     provided, the conference agreement includes $70,000,000 for 
     the Boys and Girls Clubs of America. The conferees expect the 
     Boys and Girls Clubs of America to use a portion of these 
     funds to carry out the Kids2000 Act (Public Law 106-313; 114 
     Stat. 1260).
       Cooperative Agreement Program.--The conference agreement 
     includes $20,000,000 for the Cooperative Agreement Program, 
     instead of $35,000,000 as proposed by the House and Senate. 
     Currently, there is over $20,000,000 of unobligated balances 
     available for this program. The conferees are concerned over 
     the very high level of funding carried forward in the 
     Cooperative Agreement Program. This program is intended to 
     provide guaranteed State and local bed space for Federal 
     detainees in USMS and INS custody. The conferees direct that 
     the USMS, in consultation with INS, provide an implementation 
     plan for these resources no later than January 15, 2002. The 
     plan should include steps that USMS and INS intend to take to 
     ensure that funding is obligated and this bed space is 
     available.
       Tribal Prison Construction.--The conference agreement 
     includes $35,191,000 for the prison construction program as 
     proposed by both the House and Senate. The conferees expect 
     OJP to examine each of the following proposals, provide 
     grants if warranted, and submit a report on its intentions 
     for each proposal: a NANA 28 bed jail for Kotzebue, Alaska; 
     construction of a detention facility within the Spirit Lake 
     Nation; construction of a detention facility for the Lower 
     Brule Sioux Tribe; construction of a detention facility for 
     the Mississippi Band of Choctaw Indians; and expansion of an 
     adult detention facility for the Gila River Indian 
     reservation.
       Edward Byrne Grants to States.--The conference agreement 
     includes $594,489,000 for the Edward Byrne Memorial State and 
     Local Law Enforcement Assistance Program, of which 
     $94,489,000 is for discretionary grants and $500,000,000 is 
     for formula grants under this program. Within the amounts 
     provided for discretionary grants, OJP is expected to review 
     the following proposals, provide grants if warranted, and 
     report to the Committees on its intentions. In addition, up 
     to 10 percent of the funds provided for each program shall be 
     made available for an independent evaluation of that program.
        $5,000,000 for the National Crime Prevention 
     Council's McGruff campaign;
        $300,000 for the Women's Center, Vienna, VA;
        $250,000 for the DuPage County, IL Fire 
     Investigation Task Force for arson investigations;
        $1,000,000 for the Julian Dixon Courtroom and 
     Advocacy Center at the Southwestern University School of Law 
     in Los Angeles, CA;
        $1,000,000 for the Night Lights Program expansion 
     in San Bernardino, CA;
        $2,000,000 for the San Joaquin Valley, CA Rural 
     Agricultural Crime Prevention Program;
        $3,942,000 for the Center for Court Innovation in 
     New York State, including $1,000,000 for Onondaga County and 
     surrounding areas;
        $3,000,000 for the Law Enforcement Innovation 
     Center (LEIC), TN;
        $300,000 for the Chattanooga Endeavors Program;
        $15,000 for the New Mexico Technology to Recover 
     Abducted Kids (TRAK);
        $3,000,000 for the National Fatherhood Initiative;
        $3,000,000 for the National Center for Justice and 
     the Rule of Law at the University of Mississippi School of 
     Law to sponsor research and produce judicial education

       The conference agreement adopts by reference Senate report 
     language directing the Department to work with the State of 
     Alaska, the Alaska Native community, and non-profit 
     organizations involved in prevention and treatment of 
     domestic violence to develop a Statewide plan to combat 
     domestic violence.
       Substance Abuse Treatment for State Prisoners.--The 
     conference agreement includes $70,000,000 for grants to 
     States and units of local government for development and 
     implementation of residential substance abuse treatment 
     programs within State correctional facilities and certain 
     local correctional and detention facilities. The conference 
     agreement adopts by reference the House report language 
     regarding expanding the use of these grants to provide 
     treatment for released State prisoners.
       Juvenile Accountability Incentive Block Grant.--The 
     conference agreement includes $249,450,000 for the Juvenile 
     Accountability Incentive Block Grant program as proposed by 
     the House and Senate. Within this amount, $38,000,000 is 
     available for Project ChildSafe, an initiative that will 
     ensure gun safety locks are available for every handgun in 
     America. An additional $12,000,000 is included for gun safety 
     locks under Juvenile Justice, for a total funding level of 
     $50,000,000.
       The conferees support the use of gun safety locks and 
     encourage the distribution of safety locks to handgun owners. 
     However, the conferees are concerned with reports that some 
     of these safety locks have failed or do not work on 
     certain handguns. The conferees understand that the 
     Department of Justice is reviewing the availability of 
     national standards for gun safety locks, and that private 
     industry groups have also sought the promulgation of such 
     standards. The Department of Justice is directed to work 
     with various Federal agencies, private industry groups, 
     and other interested parties in the development of 
     national standards for gun safety locks. Funds recommended 
     for Project ChildSafe may be used to offset the cost of 
     this effort. Until such national standards are 
     established, or interim standards identified, no funds 
     shall be obligated for the purchase and distribution of 
     gun safety locks and only locks that meet these standards 
     should be purchased and distributed.
       The conferees direct the Department of Justice to submit a 
     report by January 15, 2002 that: (1) reports the status of 
     the development of interim and national standards for handgun 
     safety locks; (2) provides cost estimates for gun safety 
     locks based on the new national standards; and (3) describes 
     how funding for gun safety locks will be distributed to the 
     States.
       Senior Citizens Against Marketing Scams.--The conference 
     agreement includes $1,995,000 for programs to assist law 
     enforcement in preventing and stopping marketing scams 
     against the elderly. The conference agreement adopts by 
     reference the Senate report language requesting OJP to 
     conduct some program sessions at the National Advocacy Center 
     and to coordinate efforts with the Federal Trade Commission.


                       weed and seed program fund

       The conference agreement includes $58,925,000 for the Weed 
     and Seed program, as proposed by both the House and Senate.


                  community oriented policing services

       The conference agreement includes $1,050,440,000 for the 
     Community Oriented Policing Services (COPS), instead of 
     $1,013,498,000 as proposed by the House and $1,049,659,000 as 
     proposed by the Senate. The conference agreement provides 
     funding under this account as follows:

       COPS Hiring Program.--The conference agreement includes 
     $330,000,000 for the COPS hiring program, with up to 
     $180,000,000 available for the hiring of school resource 
     officers. The conferees understand that approximately 
     $55,000,000 is available in recoveries. Language has been 
     included making these recoveries available for the direct 
     hiring of law enforcement officers through the COPS Hiring 
     Program.
       The conference agreement includes language that allows 
     technology grants to be made from fiscal year 2002 direct 
     appropriations under the COPS Hiring Program not subject to 
     redeployment tracking requirements. However, the conferees 
     expect that requests for technology funds will still

               United States Patent and Trademark Office


                         SALARIES AND EXPENSES

       The conference agreement provides a total funding level of 
     $1,126,001,000 for the United States Patent and Trademark 
     Office (PTO), instead of $1,129,001,000 as proposed in the 
     House bill and $1,139,001,000 as proposed in the Senate bill. 
     Of the amount provided in the conference agreement, 
     $843,701,000 is to be derived from fiscal year 2002 
     offsetting fee collections, and $282,300,000 is to be derived 
     from carryover of prior year fee collections. This amount 
     represents an increase of $88,993,000 above the fiscal year 
     2001 operating level for the PTO. The PTO has experienced 
     significant growth in recent years due to increased 
     application filings for patents, and funding is provided to 
     address these increased filings. Due to the decrease in the 
     filing of trademark applications, the conference agreement 
     has not fully funded the budget request.
       The conference agreement includes House report language 
     regarding PTO's partnership with the National Inventor's Hall 
     of Fame, Inventure Place, and the International Intellectual 
     Property Institute. In addition, House and Senate report

       The conference agreement provides a total funding level of 
     $3,256,098,000 in appropriations for all programs of the 
     National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), 
     instead of $3,092,728,000 as proposed in the House bill and 
     $3,363,285,000 as proposed in the Senate bill. Of these 
     amounts, the conference agreement includes $2,253,697,000 in 
     the Operations, Research, and Facilities (ORF) account, 
     $836,552,000 in the Procurement, Acquisition and Construction

     Operations, Research, and Facilities account of the National 
     Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, of which $223,273,000 
     is within the category of conservation. The House bill 
     proposed $2,200,298,000, of which $304,000,000 was under the 
     conservation category, instead of $2,276,305,000, of which 
     $33,650,000 was under the conservation category, as proposed 
     in the Senate bill.
       In addition to the new budget authority provided, the 
     conference agreement allows a transfer of $68,000,000 from 
     balances in the account entitled ``Promote and Develop 
     Fishery Products and Research Related to American 
     Fisheries'', as proposed in both the House and Senate bills.

     account for the six NOAA line offices. The Senate bill 
     contained no similar provision. The conference agreement does 
     not include two provisions regarding Executive Direction 
     proposed by the Senate. The House contained no such 
     provisions.
       The conference agreement includes language proposed in the 
     House bill making the use of deobligated balances subject to 
     standard reprogramming procedures. The Senate bill proposed a 
     similar provision. In addition, the conference agreement 
     includes language modified from the House and Senate bills 
     limiting administrative charges assessed on assigned 
     activities. In addition, the conference agreement does not 
     include a provision, as proposed in the Senate bill regarding 
     creation of a Business Management Fund. The House bill did 
     not contain a similar provision. As part of the Committees' 
     efforts to plan to continue to improve the NOAA budget 
     structure, the conferees direct NOAA to identify services 
     that could be better managed if centralized. This information 
     is to be provided to the Committees on Appropriations by 
     February 14, 2002.
       The conference agreement does not include Senate bill 
     language provisions designating amounts for four specific 
     programs or projects. The House bill did not contain similar 
     provisions.
       The conference agreement includes a provision, as proposed 
     in the Senate bill, permitting the Secretary to assess the 
     necessity for NOAA to occupy a certain facility in Louisiana. 
     The conference agreement does not include additional funding 
     for this purpose, and directs that should permission to 
     occupy this facility be granted, costs would be incurred from 
     National Ocean Service base resources.

       The following narrative provides additional information 
     related to certain items included in the preceding table.


                         NATIONAL OCEAN SERVICE

       The conference agreement includes $413,911,000 under this 
     account for the activities of the National Ocean Service, 
     instead of $375,609,000 as recommended in the House bill and 
     $388,840,000 as proposed in the Senate report.
       Mapping and Charting.--The conference agreement provides 
     $74,748,000 for NOAA's mapping and charting programs, 
     reflecting continued commitment to the navigation safety 
     programs of the NOS and concerns about the ability of the NOS 
     to continue to meet its mission requirements over the long 
     term. Within the total funding provided under Mapping and 
     Charting, the conference agreement includes House report 
     language urging NOAA to enter into a long-term lease or 
     charter.
       Estuarine and Coastal Assessment.--Senate report language 
     regarding the Oxford laboratory is adopted by reference. Of 
     the amounts provided for Aquatic Resources Environmental 
     Initiative, $500,000 is for Bluegrass Pride, Inc.
       Coastal Ocean Program (COP).--The managers of COP are 
     expected to follow the direction included in the Senate 
     report concerning research on small high-salinity estuaries. 
     Of the amounts provided, $1,200,000 is for the land use-
     coastal ecosystem study.
       Coastal Zone Management.--The conference agreement includes 
     $75,345,000 for this activity, of which $68,963,000 is for

     Management Act (CZMA), and $6,382,000 is for program 
     administration. In response to NOAA's report assessing the 
     Coastal Zone Management program, the conference agreement 
     includes direction to NOAA to begin designing and 
     implementing performance measures to validate the 
     continuation of the Coastal Zone Management program. Due to 
     fiscal constraints, it is difficult to justify a currently 
     unauthorized appropriation of this magnitude without some 
     type of measurement of performance. The conference agreement 
     directs NOAA to provide quarterly reports to the Committees 
     on Appropriations on progress in meeting these goals.
       Marine Sanctuary Program.--The conferees expect the 
     Northwest Straits Commission to seek incorporation into the 
     Marine Sanctuary Program.

       The conference agreement includes a total of $579,196,000 
     for the National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS), instead of 
     $542,121,000 as proposed in the House bill and $546,165,000 
     as proposed in the Senate report.
       The conference agreement does not include bill language 
     under this heading regarding changes to the regulations under 
     the Endangered Species Act, as proposed by the Senate. The 
     conference agreement includes direction to NMFS to complete 
     the consultative process consistent with the deadlines and 
     the documentation requirements of subsection (a)(2) of 
     section 7 of the Endangered Species Act.
       In addition, funding provided for Pacific Islands Area 
     Office (PIAO) operations are intended to enhance and not 
     supplant funds for existing operations and programs, 
     including, among others, the fishery observer program, and 
     other support.
       Fisheries Research and Management/Science and Technology.--
     The conference agreement provides $230,491,000 for fisheries 
     science and technology.
       Of the amounts provided for fishery observers, $750,000 is 
     provided to ensure that national standards are incorporated 
     for all observer programs. The conferees direct NMFS to 
     provide the Committees on Appropriations with progress 
     reports on the incorporation of observer data and state 
     fisheries data into the National Fisheries Information 
     System.
       NOAA is directed to continue working with the Xiphophorus 
     Genetic Stock Center to improve the understanding of fish 
     genetics and evolution.
       NMFS is directed to continue collaborative research with 
     the Center for Shark Research and other qualified 
     institutions to provide the information necessary for 
     effective management of the highly migratory shark fishery 
     and conservation of shark fishery resources. In addition, of 
     the funding provided for Highly Migratory Species research, 
     $150,000 is for the Pacific Fisheries Council.
       The conference agreement includes direction to NMFS to 
     fully implement cooperative research programs. The conferees 
     urge NOAA to leverage State, Federal and local resources to 
     attain the best fisheries science available.
       Conservation and Management.--The conference agreement 
     includes Senate report language regarding the North Atlantic 
     Right whales and Hawaiian Sea turtles by reference.
       In addition, of the amounts provided for Protected Species-
     Bottlenose Dolphin, $750,000 is to continue a program 
     initiated in the prior year, and the remainder is for a new 
     program in Mississippi. Within the funding provided for 
     Marine Mammal Protection/Alaska Harbor Seals, funding is to 
     be allocated according to direction in the Senate report.
       Funding for bluefish/striped bass has been provided as 
     follows: $450,000 for the NMFS base research program, 
     $827,000 for the Cooperative Marine Education and Research 
     Program in New Jersey, and $250,000 for other existing 
     bluefish/striped bass research.
       Interstate Fish Commissions.--The conference agreement 
     includes $8,000,000 for this activity, of which $750,000 is 
     to be equally divided among the three commissions, and 
     $7,250,000 is for implementation of the Atlantic Coastal 
     Fisheries Cooperative Management Act.
       Habitat Conservation.--Within the amounts provided for the 
     Chesapeake Bay, $1,200,000 is for the Chesapeake Bay 
     Environmental Education Program; of this amount, $400,000 is 
     for a grant to a consortium to further the educational goals 
     of the Chesapeake 2000 Agreement, and $800,000 is for the 
     NOAA Chesapeake Bay Office to conduct an environmental 
     educational program in the Chesapeake Bay watershed. In 
     addition, $2,000,000 is for oyster bed restoration, including 
     $1,000,000 each for the Maryland Oyster Recovery Partnership 
     and the Virginia Oyster Reef Heritage Foundation. In 
     addition, $1,500,000 is for the Blue Crab Advanced

       Coastal and Estuarine Land Conservation Program.--The 
     conference agreement includes $15,825,000 for a new coastal 
     and estuarine land conservation program, similar to a

[[Page H8024]]

     program proposed in the Senate bill. The House bill did not 
     include a similar provision. This program is intended to 
     protect those coastal and estuarine areas with significant 
     conservation, recreation, ecological, historical or aesthetic 
     values, or those that are threatened by conversion from their 
     natural state to other uses. Federal funding must be matched 
     by at least the same amount by other non-Federal sources. The 
     Department of Commerce, including NOAA, is directed to 
     promulgate regulations that are in accordance with the 
     Coastal Zone Management Act. Bill language is included 
     creating this new program.
       National Estuarine Research Reserve System (NERRS).--A 
     total of $27,912,000 is provided for NERRS acquisition and 
     construction, of which $19,500,000 is not dependent upon 
     receipt of local, state, or private matching funds.
       Marine Sanctuaries Construction.--The conference agreement 
     includes $5,000,000 for the Mariners Museum for the planning, 
     design, engineering and construction of the USS Monitor 
     center.
       Other NOS Facilities.--The conference agreement provides 
     $800,000 for the final Federal share of the Kachemak Bay 
     service facility.
       MEHRL.-- The conference agreement provides $14,000,000 for 
     the MEHRL for the proteomics initiative, including the 
     purchase of an 800 Mhz nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) 
     spectroscopy instrument, construction of necessary housing 
     for this equipment, and associated costs. The conferees 
     understand that the Medical University of South Carolina will 
     provide the necessary expertise to cooperatively manage the 
     instrument with NOAA. The conferees commend the consortium as 
     an exemplar of Federal, State and academic partners working 
     collaboratively through the joint partner process to share 
     facilities, equipment and research.
       Systems Acquisition.--Of the funding provided for Polar 
     Orbiting Spacecraft and Launching, $157,400,000 is for Polar 
     Convergence. The National Polar-orbiting Operational 
     Environmental Satellite System (NPOESS) is a Presidentially--
     directed program between Department of Defense (DOD), Air 
     Force, Department of Commerce (DOC), National Oceanic 
     Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) and National Aeronautics 
     and Space Administration (NASA). The program was established 
     based on a 50/50 cost sharing agreement between DOD and DOC, 
     while NASA would provide ``in kind'' services, including a 
     satellite and launch vehicle. The program is required to meet 
     jointly established technical and schedule requirements. Bill 
     language is included to maintain the established cost sharing 
     arrangement. House report language regarding NWS is adopted 
     by reference.
       In addition, a total of $262,474,000 is for the 
     Geostationary Spacecraft and Launching. The conference 
     agreement does not include funding for the GOES-R series in 
     fiscal year 2002 due to scheduling changes.
       Construction.--The conference agreement includes $8,000,000 
     for above-standard costs of a building in Norman, Oklahoma to 
     house portions of the National Weather Service. The 
     conference agreement does not include funding requested for 
     the Suitland, Maryland facility, as funding is not required 
     in fiscal year 2002.


                    PACIFIC SALMON COASTAL RECOVERY

       The conference agreement includes $157,419,000 for this

     is for the Columbia River tribes.
       Of the amounts provided for the state of Alaska, funding is 
     allocated in accordance with the Senate report; $250,000 is 
     for the United Fishermen of Alaska, and $500,000 is for the 
     Klawock Lake habitat project.
       Of the amounts provided to the State of Washington, 
     $1,000,000 is for mass marking, and $4,000,000 is for the 
     Washington State Department of Natural Resources and other 
     State and Federal agencies for purposes of implementing the 
     State of Washington's Forest and Fish Report. The monies 
     shall be spent in accordance with the terms and conditions of 
     the Report and consistent with the requirements of the 
     Endangered Species Act and Clean Water Act.
       Of the amounts provided for Oregon, funding is allocated in 
     accordance with the Senate report.
       Should an authorization including the State of Idaho under 
     this program be enacted during fiscal year 2002, the 
     conferees would entertain a reprogramming request for these 
     funds.
       Of the amounts provided for the Pacific Salmon Commission, 
     funding is provided to implement salmon research, 
     conservation, and harvest provisions of the 1999 Pacific

     Department of State for this purpose.
       The conference agreement does not include language proposed 
     in the House bill making funding under this heading subject 
     to express authorization. The Senate bill did not include a 
     similar provision.
       None of the $110,000,000 is for commercial fishing license 
     or vessel buybacks.

     City of Anchorage, Alaska to export, on a one-time basis, two 
     whale jaw bones acquired in a legal subsistence hunt by 
     Native Alaskans, to its sister city of Whitby of the United 
     Kingdom.
       Sec. 211.--The conference agreement includes a new section 
     211 that amends section 213 of Public Law 105-277, the 
     American Fisheries Act. This change would delete a sunset 
     provision and instead authorize an annual appropriation, 
     making permanent the prohibition on direct pollock fishing by 
     non-American Fisheries Act (AFA) catcher/processors, even 
     though this sector has some pre-AFA pollock history. The 
     conferees understand that North Pacific groundfish fishermen 
     and processors have agreed to work together on a proposal for 
     consideration by the

[[Page H8025]]

     North Pacific Fishery Management Council for non-AFA catcher/
     processsors to maximize utilization of their historic pollock 
     catch. The conferees request that the appropriate Committees 
     be notified immediately should the Secretary determine that 
     the AFA statute precludes the Council from developing a 
     regulation implementing the aforementioned agreement. The 
     substitution of a September 30, 2004 reauthorization date for 
     the original December 31, 2004 sunset date is intended to 
     ensure a full Congressional review of the AFA within six 
     years of its passage, as originally planned. This will also 
     allow consideration of AFA issues during the reauthorization 
     of the Magnuson-Stevens Fishery Conservation and Management 
     Act. Further, the conferees expect that any further 
     authorization changes to the AFA will be addressed through 
     the authorization committee process.

     a transfer of $400,000 to the ``Federal Judicial Center,

     Courts, and other Judicial Services, Salaries and Expenses''.
       Section 305.--The conference agreement adopts a provision

            TITLE IV--DEPARTMENT OF STATE AND RELATED AGENCY

                          DEPARTMENT OF STATE

                   Administration of Foreign Affairs


                    diplomatic and consular programs

       The conference agreement includes a total of $3,630,012,000 
     for Diplomatic and Consular Programs, instead of 
     $3,645,735,000 as included in the House bill and 
     $3,471,168,000 as included in the Senate bill. The conference 
     agreement includes $3,142,277,000 for State Department 
     activities under this account, and an additional $487,735,000 
     to remain available until expended for worldwide security 
     upgrades.
       The conference agreement provides $361,360,000 in requested 
     program increases to improve diplomatic readiness and the 
     security of Department operations, as follows:
       Diplomatic Readiness.--The conference agreement includes a 
     program increase of $106,895,000, the full amount requested, 
     for increased staffing. The conferees expect this amount to 
     support the hiring of 360 new employees in fiscal year 2002. 
     In addition, the

[[Page H8026]]

     conference agreement includes $18,500,000 for human resources 
     enhancements, including $3,000,000 for recruitment 
     modernization, $10,000,000 for service needs incentives, 
     $2,000,000 for a student loan repayment program, $1,000,000 
     for a spousal employment program, and $2,500,000 for civil 
     service mobility and mid-level training programs.
       Secure Operations.--The conference agreement includes 
     program increases of $79,412,000 to improve information and 
     telephone security, upgrade the Department's technical and 
     domestic security efforts, and hire an additional 186 
     diplomatic security employees, including 86 special agents.
       Information Technology Investments.--The conference 
     agreement includes a program increase of $102,746,000 for 
     information technology operations and maintenance, 
     representing a shift of all such costs from the Capital 
     Investment Fund, which will allow the full amount in that 
     account to be available for technology investments.
       Overseas Infrastructure.--The conference agreement includes 
     program increases of $53,807,000 for improvements to the 
     overseas diplomatic support platform provided by the 
     Department. This amount includes $18,650,000 for the 
     replacement of obsolete equipment, $5,000,000 for the 
     replacement of unreliable motor vehicles, $10,000,000 to 
     improve critical operations and maintenance services, 
     $5,300,000 to improve competitiveness of compensation 
     packages offered to foreign national employees, and 
     $14,857,000 to support the consolidation of worldwide 
     financial functions.
       Further guidance on these and other programs and activities 
     of the Department are offered below.
       The conference agreement includes language designating 
     $270,259,000 for public diplomacy international information 
     programs as proposed in the House bill. The Senate bill did 
     not contain a similar provision. This amount represents the 
     full requested funding level for these program activities. 
     Within the amount provided, the conferees expect that the top 
     priority in resource allocation will be programs related to 
     the effort to combat terrorism. A strong and sustained public 
     diplomacy campaign that successfully communicates objective 
     facts and official messages and policies to target audiences 
     abroad will be critical to the success of this effort. The 
     conferees expect the Department to draw upon the best minds 
     available, inside and outside the Federal government, to 
     develop and convey these messages and policies.
       The conference agreement includes language designating 
     $694,190,000 for information resource management as proposed 
     in the Senate bill. The House bill did not contain a similar 
     provision. This amount represents the full requested funding 
     level for these activities. The conferees note that this 
     amount includes funding for the Diplomatic Telecommunications 
     Service--Program Office (DTS-PO), formerly included under the 
     Capital Investment Fund. In recognition of continuing 
     management challenges regarding DTS-PO, the conferees direct 
     the Department to submit a fiscal year 2002 DTS-PO spending 
     plan to the Committees through the regular reprogramming 
     process before December 15, 2001.
       The conference agreement does not include language proposed 
     in the Senate bill designating $7,800,000 for language, 
     security, leadership, management and professional training. 
     The House bill did not include a similar provision. The 
     conferees expect that, within the funding available under 
     this account, the Department will allocate a similar total to 
     such training programs.
       The conference agreement does not include language proposed 
     in the Senate bill designating $6,000,000 for transfer to the 
     Department of Justice for conversion of State Department 
     radio systems to narrowband. The House bill did not include a 
     similar provision.
       The conference agreement does not include language 
     earmarking $9,000,000 for the East-West Center, as proposed 
     in the Senate bill. The House bill did not contain a similar 
     provision. Funding for the East-West Center is addressed 
     under a separate heading in this title.
       The conference agreement does not include an earmark of 
     $5,000,000 under this account, as proposed in the Senate 
     bill, for a payment to the State of Hawaii for security costs 
     incurred as host of the May, 2001 Asian Development Bank 
     Meeting. The House bill did not include a provision on this 
     matter.
       The conference agreement includes a provision, not in the 
     House bill or the Senate bill, to allow the Department to 
     collect and deposit Machine Readable Visa fees as offsetting 
     collections to this account in fiscal years 2002 and 2003 to 
     recover costs. The conference agreement does not include 
     provisions to limit the use of Machine Readable Visa fees in 
     fiscal year 2002 and to make excess collections available in 
     the subsequent fiscal year, as carried in both the House and 
     Senate bills.
       The conference agreement does not include language proposed 
     in the Senate bill regarding the extension of Federal 
     allowances and benefits to an American employee of the World 
     Intellectual Property Organization. The House bill did not 
     include a provision on this matter. The conferees expect the 
     Department to make every effort within existing laws and 
     regulations to ensure that this and similar positions with 
     international organizations carry with them appropriate 
     allowances and benefits as befit their status.
       In addition, the conferees are concerned by General 
     Accounting Office findings that the United Nations (U.N.) and 
     affiliated organizations continue to fall short of targets 
     for the number of American employees. The conferees strongly 
     encourage the Department to increase resources to recruit 
     qualified Americans for positions in the U.N. system, and to 
     work to remove pay and benefits disincentives to such 
     employment. The conferees direct the Department to report to 
     the Committees on Appropriations no later than March 15, 
     2002 on what actions can be taken to address these pay, 
     allowances, and benefits concerns.
       The conference agreement does not include language carried 
     in last year's Act allowing certain advances for services 
     related to the Panama Canal Commission to be credited to this 
     account and to remain available until expended, as proposed 
     in the Senate bill. The conferees understand that such 
     amounts were credited to this account during fiscal year 2001 
     and remain available until expended, and that this provision 
     is no longer necessary.
       The conference agreement does not include language proposed 
     in the Senate bill designating a total of $45,419,000 for the 
     implementation of the 1999 Pacific Salmon Treaty Agreement. 
     The conference agreement addresses funding for this treaty 
     under Title II of this Act, as proposed in the House bill.
       The conference agreement includes language making 
     $1,343,000 available from fees collected from other executive 
     agencies for lease or use of facilities at the International 
     Center, as proposed in the House bill. The Senate bill 
     proposed making $1,252,000 available for such purposes.
       The conference agreement includes a citation of 
     authorization legislation carried in previous years. The 
     Senate bill proposed the deletion of this citation.
       The conference agreement includes new language designating 
     $1,800,000 for a grant to conduct an international conference 
     on combating sex trafficking. The conferees expect the 
     Department's newly-established Office to Monitor and Combat 
     Trafficking in Persons to oversee this conference as a 
     public/private partnership, working closely with the War 
     Against Trafficking Alliance, a consortium of non-
     governmental organizations, including Shared Hope 
     International, the International Justice Mission, and the 
     Salvation Army. In addition, the conferees encourage the 
     Department to assist other international cooperative efforts 
     to fight trafficking in persons, including providing up to 
     $200,000 for an upcoming conference on human rights 
     challenges associated with trafficking, sponsored by the 
     Globalization Research Center of the University of Hawaii at 
     Manoa.
       The conferees direct the Department to allocate $5,000,000 
     for overseas continuing language education for employees and 
     dependents as described in the Senate report.
       The conferees direct the Department to report to the 
     Committees on Appropriations on the Bureau of Consular 
     Affairs' programs to assist Americans who have been the 
     victims of violent crimes while traveling or studying 
     overseas. The report shall evaluate the current services 
     provided by the Office of Overseas Citizens Affairs and the 
     adequacy of resources available to it for this purpose. This 
     report shall consider whether and what data should be 
     collected on individual incidents and made available to 
     victims. The report shall also consider whether a database 
     containing information about grants available to assist 
     victims with the high costs associated with the prosecution 
     of a perpetrator in foreign countries--particularly remote or 
     judicially unsophisticated foreign countries--is merited. 
     Finally, the report shall determine how best to make this 
     information available to victims. The conferees expect that 
     Internet technology will be utilized to accomplish this.
       Within the amount provided under this heading, the 
     conferees direct the Department to make $500,000 available to 
     the Northern Forum to support efforts to improve 
     international communication, cooperation and opportunities 
     for economic growth in northern regions of countries 
     including the United States, Canada, China, Finland, Sweden, 
     Japan, and Russia. This funding is provided with the 
     expectation of matching funding from other contributions.
       The conferees continue to be concerned about the security 
     of classified information at the Department. The conferees 
     understand that Federal requirements for storage of 
     classified information mandate that containers approved by 
     the General Services Administration are secured with locks 
     that meet or exceed Federal specifications. The conferees 
     expect the Department to report to the Committees no later 
     than March 1, 2002, identifying the number of Department-
     controlled containers that are not in compliance with the 
     Federal specification.
       The conferees understand that a community of democracies 
     conference is planned for October, 2002, in Seoul. The 
     conferees encourage the Department to participate in this 
     conference and to further develop the idea of a coalition of 
     nations that could serve to consolidate and expand democracy, 
     and to deepen collaboration among nations to enhance security 
     and prosperity and pursue common interests. The conferees 
     encourage the Department to work with non-governmental 
     organizations with similar aims such as the Council for a 
     Community of Democracies.
       The conference agreement includes, by reference, language 
     in the House report on reprogramming of exchange rate 
     savings; reform and restructuring, including the filling of 
     the Deputy Secretary for Management and

[[Page H8027]]

     Resources position; carrying out the recommendations of the 
     Overseas Presence Advisory Panel; implementation of visa 
     laws; the diversity visa program; Sudan; Egypt; Lebanon; 
     overseas schools; the Office of Defense Trade Controls; and 
     the negotiation of extradition treaties.
       The conference agreement includes, by reference, language 
     in the Senate report on the Arctic Council, the Bering 
     Straits Commission, the Ambassador's Fund for Cultural 
     Preservation, international conservation of sea turtles, 
     biotechnology, and international trade activities.
       The conferees direct the Department to provide $1,500,000 
     to continue its educational partnership with Hostos Community 
     College and Columbia University in New York. This model 
     program will support the Department's ongoing efforts to 
     increase minority hiring and diversity by facilitating the 
     preparation of non-traditional and minority students for 
     careers in the Foreign Service and the Department. The 
     conferees also note that the Department has identified 
     additional continuing base funding of at least $2,000,000 to 
     improve efforts to recruit members of minority groups for 
     careers in the Foreign Service and international affairs. The 
     conference agreement includes resources to continue these 
     efforts, including an additional $1,000,000 for an ongoing 
     partnership with Howard University.
       Within the amount provided under this account, and 
     including any savings the Department identifies, the 
     Department will have the ability to propose that funds be 
     used for purposes not specifically funded by the conference 
     agreement through the normal reprogramming process.


                        CAPITAL INVESTMENT FUND

       The conference agreement includes $203,000,000 for the 
     Capital Investment Fund as proposed in the House bill, 
     instead of $210,000,000 as proposed in the Senate bill. This 
     amount, when combined with estimated expedited passport fees 
     of $63,000,000, will result in a total availability of 
     $266,000,000 for priority new technology investments. Costs 
     associated with information technology operations and 
     maintenance, formerly supported by amounts under this 
     heading, are instead included under the Diplomatic and 
     Consular Programs account.
       The conferees agree that, from the total available funding 
     under this heading, $106,600,000 shall be for the replacement 
     of computer and communications equipment that posts use for 
     classified operations, and $109,631,000 shall be for the 
     expansion of desktop Internet access to all Department 
     employees worldwide. The conference agreement includes, by 
     reference, language in the House report regarding the 
     submission of a performance plan and report for these two 
     major initiatives.
       The conference agreement also includes, by reference, 
     language in the House report on efforts to establish a common 
     information technology platform at overseas posts.


                      OFFICE OF INSPECTOR GENERAL

       The conference agreement includes $29,000,000 for the 
     Office of Inspector General, instead of $29,264,000 as 
     proposed in the House bill and $28,427,000 as proposed in the 
     Senate bill. The conference agreement includes, by reference, 
     the guidance included in the House report.


               EDUCATIONAL AND CULTURAL EXCHANGE PROGRAMS

       The conference agreement includes $237,000,000 for 
     Educational and Cultural Exchange Programs as proposed in the 
     House bill, instead of $242,000,000 as proposed in the Senate 
     bill. The following chart displays the conference agreement 
     on the distribution of funds by program or activity under 
     this account:

    Total, Appropriation........................................237,000

       Deviations from this distribution of funds will be subject 
     to the normal reprogramming procedures under section 605 of 
     this Act. In addition, the conferees understand that at least 
     $2,200,000 from carryover and recovered balances will be 
     available for obligation in fiscal year 2002. Of this 
     additional amount, the conferees agree to the following 
     allocations: $250,000 for the Irish Institute, $250,000 for 
     the Atlantic Corridor, $300,000 for the Citizen Exchanges 
     Program, $200,000 for the North/South Center, $300,000 for 
     exchanges related to workforce development in Africa as 
     described in both the House and Senate reports, $400,000 for 
     exchanges to build linkages between American and foreign 
     musicians and musical institutions as described in the House 
     report, and $500,000 for one-time seed funding for five new 
     exchange activities as listed in the Senate chart. Should 
     additional carryover and recovered balances become available, 
     the conferees encourage the Department to consider a proposal 
     for funding from International Partners in Education. The 
     conferees remind the Department that the use of additional 
     carryover beyond that distributed above is subject to the 
     reprogramming requirements described in section 605 of this 
     Act.
       The conference agreement includes language that limits 
     spending from fee collections to $2,000,000 as proposed in 
     the House bill, instead of $800,000 as proposed in the Senate 
     bill. The conference agreement also includes language 
     authorizing the crediting of fees from exchange visitor 
     programs to this account as proposed in the House bill.
       With respect to exchanges with the successor states of the 
     former Soviet Union, the conferees agree that funding under 
     this heading shall be allocated in recognition of significant 
     amounts available for similar programs via transfer from 
     other funding sources. Accordingly, the Department shall not 
     earmark a percentage allocation of funds provided under this 
     heading to exchanges for that geographic region. Instead, 
     resources under this heading shall be allocated to ensure 
     that the total funding available from all sources for 
     exchange programs does not include geographical inequalities 
     that do not correspond with worldwide policy priorities. The 
     conferees direct the Department to submit a report to the 
     Committees by January 15, 2002, displaying the allocation of 
     total fiscal year 2002 funding from all sources, and total 
     funding under this heading, by geographical region. The 
     report should also include a similar display of fiscal year 
     2001 actual funding allocations.
       The conference agreement includes $250,000 for the Muskie 
     Fellowships for graduate student exchanges with states of the 
     former Soviet Union. The conferees expect that approximately 
     $20,000,000 will be made available from other sources in 
     fiscal year 2002 for such exchanges. Within the total amounts 
     made available for such exchanges the conferees urge the 
     Department to place the highest priority on students 
     conducting research or undertaking language training related 
     to the Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Turkmenistan, Tajikistan, and 
     Uzbekistan.
       The conferees agree that the Department, in cooperation 
     with other relevant Federal agencies, should give higher 
     priority to international education and should coordinate 
     efforts to promote exchange programs and U.S. higher 
     education abroad.
       The conference agreement includes, by reference, language 
     in the House report on the Congress-Bundestag Youth Exchange 
     Program, the Working Group on International Exchanges and 
     Training, and increased competition in grant programs. The 
     conference agreement also includes language in the Senate 
     report on overseas educational advising.
       The conferees are aware of the economic and cultural 
     exchange program, as well as the proposed ``sister state'' 
     relationship being developed between the City of Lake 
     Charles, Louisiana and the Tver Region of Russia. The 
     conferees support these efforts and encourage the Department 
     to consider supporting the program.


                       REPRESENTATION ALLOWANCES

       The conference agreement includes $6,485,000 for 
     Representation Allowances as proposed in the House bill, 
     instead of $9,000,000 as proposed in the Senate bill.


              PROTECTION OF FOREIGN MISSIONS AND OFFICIALS

       The conference agreement includes $9,400,000 for Protection 
     of Foreign Missions and Officials as proposed in the House 
     bill, instead of $10,000,000 as proposed in the Senate bill. 
     The direction included in the House and Senate reports 
     regarding the review of reimbursement claims is adopted by 
     reference.


            EMBASSY SECURITY, CONSTRUCTION, AND MAINTENANCE

       The conference agreement includes $1,273,960,000 for this 
     account, instead of $1,285,960,000 as proposed in the House 
     bill and $1,066,951,000 as proposed in the Senate bill.
       Worldwide Security Upgrades.--The conference agreement 
     includes $815,960,000 for the costs of worldwide security 
     upgrades, including $136,680,000 for continuation of the 
     perimeter security program and $665,000,000 for capital 
     security projects.
       The conferees agree that the amount for capital security 
     projects does not include requirements associated with the 
     construction

[[Page H8028]]

     of U.S. Agency for International Development facilities. 
     Instead, the conferees direct the Department to allocate the 
     entire amount provided for capital security construction to 
     projects at posts that are determined by the Department to be 
     most in need of secure replacement facilities.
       The conferees understand that the Department recently 
     realized significant savings as a result of re-evaluating the 
     budget plans for a number of ongoing and planned capital 
     security projects. The conferees expect that the resulting 
     savings will allow the Department to accomplish results under 
     this program that significantly exceed the level of activity 
     described in the budget request. The conferees commend the 
     Department, and encourage the achievement of additional 
     efficiencies that will reduce the cost and increase the pace 
     of standing up new, secure replacement embassy and consular 
     facilities.
       The conferees direct the Department to submit a spending 
     plan for worldwide security upgrades within sixty days of the 
     date of enactment of this Act through the normal 
     reprogramming process. In proposing such a spending plan, the 
     Department shall include an assessment of need, and such 
     funding as is appropriate, for security upgrades related to 
     existing housing, schools, and Marine quarters.
       Other Capital Programs.--The conference agreement includes 
     $15,000,000 to be allocated for capital projects that are not 
     based primarily on security vulnerability. The conferees 
     agree that this amount shall not be for a specific project 
     designated in the Department's budget request. The conferees 
     are aware of other non-security capital funding needs, 
     including projects that correspond with proposed post 
     openings, that may be priorities for funding under this 
     activity. The conferees expect the Department to include an 
     allocation of this funding in the spending plan described in 
     the previous paragraph.
       The conference agreement includes, by reference, language 
     in the House report on immediate notification of security 
     risks, administrative costs, responding to the 
     recommendations of the Overseas Presence Advisory Panel, and 
     assets management.
       The Department is directed to submit, and receive approval 
     for, a financial plan for the funding provided under this 
     account, whether from direct appropriations or proceeds of 
     sales, prior to the obligation or expenditure of funds for 
     capital and rehabilitation projects. The overall spending 
     plan shall include project-level detail, and shall be 
     provided to the Committees on Appropriations not later than 
     60 days after the date of enactment of this Act. Any 
     deviation from the plan after approval shall be treated as a 
     reprogramming in the case of an addition greater than 
     $500,000, or as a notification in the case of a deletion, a 
     project cost overrun exceeding 25 percent, or a project 
     schedule delay exceeding 6 months. Notification requirements 
     also extend to the re-baselining of a given project's cost 
     estimate, schedule, or scope of work.


           EMERGENCIES IN THE DIPLOMATIC AND CONSULAR SERVICE

       The conference agreement includes $6,500,000 for 
     Emergencies in the Diplomatic and Consular Service account, 
     instead of $10,000,000 as provided in the House bill and 
     $5,465,000 as provided in the Senate bill. The conferees 
     understand that an additional $3,500,000 is available from 
     prior year balances, resulting in a total fiscal year 2002 
     availability of $10,000,000 under this account. In addition, 
     the conferees understand that at least $20,750,000 for 
     terrorism rewards and publicity was made available under this 
     account in Public Law 107-38 to respond to the September 11, 
     2001 terrorist attacks on the United States.


                   REPATRIATION LOANS PROGRAM ACCOUNT

       The conference agreement includes a total appropriation of 
     $1,219,000 for the Repatriation Loans Program account as 
     provided in both the House and Senate bills.


              PAYMENT TO THE AMERICAN INSTITUTE IN TAIWAN

       The conference agreement includes $17,044,000 for the 
     Payment to the American Institute in Taiwan account, as 
     provided in both the House and Senate bills. The conference 
     agreement includes, by reference, language in the House bill 
     regarding the submission of a spending plan that includes all 
     funding sources.


     PAYMENT TO THE FOREIGN SERVICE RETIREMENT AND DISABILITY FUND

       The conference agreement includes $135,629,000 for the 
     Payment to the Foreign Service Retirement and Disability Fund 
     account, as provided in both the House and Senate bills.

              International Organizations and Conferences


              CONTRIBUTIONS TO INTERNATIONAL ORGANIZATIONS

       The conference agreement includes $850,000,000 for 
     Contributions to International Organizations to pay the costs 
     assessed to the United States for membership in international 
     organizations as proposed in the House bill, instead of 
     $1,091,348,000 as proposed in the Senate bill.
       The conference agreement includes language requiring that 
     $100,000,000 may be made available to the U.N. only pursuant 
     to a certification that it has taken no action during 
     calendar year 2001 prior to the enactment of this Act to 
     cause it to exceed the adopted budget for the biennium 2000-
     2001, as proposed in the House bill. The Senate bill did not 
     include a provision on this matter.
       The amount provided by the conference agreement is expected 
     to be sufficient to fully pay assessments to international 
     organizations. The conference agreement anticipates that the 
     Department has prepaid $15,200,000 of the fiscal year 2002 
     assessment for the U.N. regular budget, using excess fiscal 
     year 2001 funds. In addition, the Department's recalculation 
     of its fiscal year 2001 request for this account has resulted 
     in a lowering of the request by an additional $2,400,000, 
     resulting primarily from exchange rate fluctuations. The 
     conference agreement does not include requested funding for 
     Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development 
     headquarters renovation, and anticipates additional savings 
     related to requested activities that are terminating or have 
     yet to be established.
       In recognition of the importance of the work of the 
     International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO), the 
     conference agreement includes full funding for the United 
     States assessment to ICAO. This amount will include support 
     for new and expanded programs in safety and security.
       The conference agreement also includes full funding for the 
     United States assessment to the International Atomic Energy 
     Agency (IAEA). The conferees recognize the importance of the 
     role played by the IAEA in efforts to enact stronger global 
     measures to protect nuclear material and facilities against 
     potential acts of terrorism.
       The conference agreement includes, by reference, language 
     in the House report on international war crimes tribunals. 
     The conferees urge the Department to work with the U.N. and 
     the tribunals to establish full-time U.N. Office of Internal 
     Oversight Services positions at each of the international 
     tribunals to improve internal controls and to prevent and 
     detect fraud.
       The conference agreement also adopts, by reference, 
     language in the House report concerning withdrawal from 
     certain organizations, international organizations reform, 
     and the Pan American Health Organization (PAHO), and directs 
     the Department to provide PAHO with its full United States 
     assessment level for fiscal year 2002.


        CONTRIBUTIONS FOR INTERNATIONAL PEACEKEEPING ACTIVITIES

       The conference agreement provides $844,139,000 for 
     Contributions for International Peacekeeping Activities as 
     proposed in the House bill, instead of $773,182,000 as 
     proposed in the Senate bill. The conference agreement does 
     not include a rescission of $126,600,000 from this account as 
     proposed in title VII of the Senate bill.
       The conference agreement provides that of the total funding 
     provided under this heading fifteen percent shall remain 
     available until September 30, 2003, as proposed in the Senate 
     bill. The House bill had no provision on the matter. The 
     conferees expect that before any excess funding is carried 
     over into fiscal year 2003 in this account, the Department 
     shall transfer the maximum allowable amount to the 
     Contributions to International Organizations account to 
     prepay the fiscal year 2003 assessment for the U.N. regular 
     budget.
       The conference agreement includes language regarding equal 
     opportunities for American suppliers and a prohibition on 
     funding for court monitoring as proposed in the House bill. 
     The Senate bill did not include provisions on these matters.
       The conferees acknowledge the progress made by the UNAMSIL 
     mission in Sierra Leone, but remain concerned about the 
     sincerity of the former combatant groups' commitments to 
     peace and a democratic process. The Committees intend to 
     closely monitor the activities of this mission, and to hold 
     the Department and the U.N. accountable for achieving the 
     goals of the current concept of operation.
       The conference agreement includes, by reference, language 
     in the House report on the MINURSO mission in Western Sahara, 
     U.N. peacekeeping reform, and the U.N.'s Office of Internal 
     Oversight Services.


                       international commissions

 international boundary and water commission, united states and mexico

                         salaries and expenses

       The conference agreement includes $24,705,000 for Salaries 
     and Expenses of the International Boundary and Water 
     Commission (IBWC) as proposed in the House bill, instead of 
     $7,452,000 as proposed in the Senate bill. The conference 
     agreement includes $17,199,000 under this heading for 
     operations and maintenance. These activities were funded last 
     year under the ``Construction'' account. The conference 
     report does not include language in the House report 
     concerning a certain flood warning system.


                              construction

       The conference agreement includes $5,450,000 for the 
     Construction account of the IBWC, instead of $5,520,000 as 
     proposed in the House bill and $24,154,000 as proposed in the 
     Senate bill. The conferees urge the IBWC to continue 
     cooperative efforts to seek effective, timely and cost-
     efficient ways to increase the capacity to process excess 
     sewage flows from Mexico. The conferees note that the IBWC 
     and the Department have not yet entered into the dialogue on 
     this matter with the Republic of Mexico that is described in 
     title VIII of Public Law 106-457. The conferees direct the 
     IBWC to report to the Committees on or before March 1, 2002, 
     on proposed short-term and longer-term measures to advance a 
     resolution of this issue.

[[Page H8029]]

              american sections, international commissions

       The conference agreement includes $9,911,000 for the U.S. 
     share of expenses of the International Boundary Commission; 
     the International Joint Commission, United States and Canada; 
     and the Border Environment Cooperation Commission, instead of 
     $10,311,000 as proposed in the House bill and $6,879,000 as 
     proposed in the Senate bill. The conference level includes 
     funding for second year costs of a five-year study of the 
     water regulation plan governing Lake Ontario and the St. 
     Lawrence River.


                  international fisheries commissions

       The conference agreement includes $20,480,000 for the U.S. 
     share of the expenses of the International Fisheries 
     Commissions and related activities, instead of $19,780,000 as 
     proposed in the House bill and $20,780,000 as proposed in the 
     Senate bill. The conference agreement includes the funding 
     distribution requested in the President's budget, plus an 
     additional $700,000 for the Great Lakes Fisheries Commission, 
     including $250,000 for treating Lake Champlain with 
     lampricide and lampricide alternatives. The conferees expect 
     that future funding requirements under this account for the 
     Inter-American Tropical Tuna Commission will be less than the 
     $2,300,000 provided for fiscal year 2002. The conference 
     agreement includes the full requested funding for the Inter-
     American Sea Turtle Convention Commission.

     bill.

     both the House and Senate bills allowing all interest and

     used for necessary expenses of Eisenhower Exchange 
     Fellowships.


                    israeli arab scholarship program

       The conference agreement includes language as provided in 
     both the House and Senate bills allowing all interest and 
     earnings accruing to the Scholarship Fund in fiscal year 2002 
     to be used for necessary expenses of the Israeli Arab 
     Scholarship Program.


                            east-west center

       The conference agreement includes $14,000,000 for 
     operations of the East-West Center as proposed in the Senate 
     bill, instead of $9,400,000 as proposed in the House bill. 
     The conference agreement does not include an additional 
     earmark from the Department of State's Diplomatic and 
     Consular Programs account as proposed in the Senate bill.


                    national endowment for democracy

       The conference agreement includes $33,500,000 for the 
     National Endowment for Democracy as proposed in the House 
     bill, instead of $31,000,000 as proposed in the Senate bill.

                             RELATED AGENCY

                    Broadcasting Board of Governors


                 international broadcasting operations

       The conference agreement includes $428,234,000 for 
     International Broadcasting Operations, instead of 
     $453,106,000 as proposed in the House bill and $414,752,000 
     as proposed in the Senate bill. Rather than funding 
     broadcasting to Cuba under this account, as proposed in the 
     House bill, all funding for broadcasting to Cuba is included 
     under a separate account, as proposed in the Senate bill.
       The conference agreement includes full requested funding 
     for an initiative to improve and enhance Voice of America 
     (VOA) Arabic broadcasting to the Middle East, as described in 
     the House report. Combined with funding provided under Public 
     Law 107-38, the amount provided under this heading will 
     enable the Broadcasting Board of Governors (BBG) to fully 
     implement this initiative, including broadcasting to Sudan. 
     The BBG shall report to the Committees on Appropriations by 
     March 1, 2002, on proposed performance goals and measures for 
     this new activity.
       The conferees expect that the VOA will not air interviews 
     with any official from nations that sponsor terrorism or any 
     representative or member of terrorist organizations, or 
     otherwise afford such individuals opportunities to air 
     inaccurate, propagandistic, or inflammatory messages. The 
     conferees direct the BBG to work closely with the Department 
     of State and the National Security Council and to report to 
     the Committees on Appropriations by December 15, 2001 on the 
     procedures established to ensure this responsibility is 
     upheld.
       The conference agreement includes, by reference, language 
     in the House report on reprogramming of savings, and language 
     service review and research. The conference agreement also 
     includes, by reference, language in the Senate report on 
     Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty broadcasting in Avar, Chechen 
     and Circassian.
       The conferees expect the BBG to maintain funding for VOA 
     broadcasting to Africa at least at fiscal year 2001 levels. 
     Should additional resources become available during fiscal 
     year 2002, the conferees encourage the BBG to propose 
     additional funding for VOA broadcasting to Africa through the 
     reprogramming process.


                          broadcasting to cuba

       The conference agreement includes $24,872,000, to remain 
     available until expended, for Broadcasting to Cuba under a 
     separate account as proposed in the Senate bill, instead of 
     the same amount within the total for International 
     Broadcasting Operations as proposed in the House bill.


                   broadcasting capital improvements

       The conference agreement includes $25,900,000 for the 
     Broadcasting Capital Improvements account as proposed in the 
     House bill, instead of $16,900,000 as proposed in the Senate 
     bill.
       The conference agreement includes, by reference, language 
     in the House report on the allocation of funds to support 
     Arabic broadcasting to the Middle East and to defeat jamming 
     of VOA and Radio Free Asia broadcasting to China, Tibet, 
     Vietnam and North Korea.

                       TITLE V--RELATED AGENCIES

                      DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION

       The conference agreement includes $89,054,000 for the 
     Maritime Administration (MARAD) Operations and Training

     operation and maintenance of the U.S. Merchant Marine 
     Academy, including the $13,000,000 for capital improvements. 
     The Committee directs MARAD to submit, no later than November 
     30, 2001, and prior to the expenditure of fiscal year 2002 
     funds, a spending plan for this initiative, subject to the 
     reprogramming requirements under section 605 of this Act. The 
     Committee reminds MARAD that deviations from approved 
     spending plans are also subject to section 605 reprogramming 
     requirements.
       The conference agreement includes $7,457,000 for the State 
     Maritime Academies. Within the amount for State Maritime 
     Academies, $1,200,000 is for student incentive payments, 
     $1,200,000 is for scholarship payments, and $5,057,000 is for 
     schoolship maintenance and repair.

     ``level funding initiative'', and on operating programs and 
     general administration budget and full-time equivalent 
     staffing levels. The conference agreement also includes, by 
     reference, language in the Senate report on a review of 
     foreign-owned hopper dredge vessels. The conferees agree that 
     MARAD shall submit a report to the Committees by February 3, 
     2002, on findings that result from the aforementioned review.

[[Page H8030]]

       The conference agreement does not include funding in a 
     separate account for disposal of obsolete ships from the 
     National Defense Reserve Fleet as proposed in the House bill. 
     However, the conferees expect MARAD to continue to explore 
     possible alternatives, work with other Federal agencies, and 
     develop plans to reduce the inventory of obsolete vessels on 
     a cost recovery basis. MARAD shall report to the Committees 
     on such plans.


          MARITIME GUARANTEED LOAN (TITLE XI) PROGRAM ACCOUNT

       The conference agreement provides $33,000,000 in subsidy 
     appropriations for the Maritime Guaranteed Loan Program 
     instead of $30,000,000 as proposed in the House bill and 
     $100,000,000 as proposed in the Senate bill. The conference 
     agreement does not include language, as proposed in the House 
     bill, placing a limitation on loan levels. However, the 
     conferees agree that during fiscal year 2002 commitments to 
     subsidize Title XI loans shall not exceed $1,000,000,000 
     absent a prior reprogramming notification under section 605 
     of this Act. The conferees adopt, by reference, language in 
     the Senate report concerning the Adminstration's budget 
     request, and language in the House report regarding quarterly 
     reporting requirements. MARAD has indicated to the Committees 
     that approximately $7,000,000 in prior year funding remains 
     available in this account, which may be used as additional 
     subsidy budget authority in fiscal year 2002.
       The conference agreement includes an additional $3,978,000 
     for administrative expenses associated with the Maritime 
     Guaranteed Loan Program as proposed in both the House and 
     Senate bills. The amount for administrative expenses may be 
     transferred to and merged with amounts under the MARAD 
     Operations and Training account.

           Administrative Provisions--Maritime Administration

       The conference agreement includes provisions, as proposed 
     in both the House and Senate bills, involving Government 
     property controlled by MARAD, the accounting for certain 
     funds received by MARAD, and a prohibition on obligations 
     from the MARAD construction fund.

      Commission for the Preservation of America's Heritage Abroad

       The conference agreement provides $489,000 for the 
     Commission for the Preservation of America's Heritage Abroad, 
     as proposed in both the Senate and House bills. The 
     conference agreement includes by reference Senate report 
     language regarding surveys. The conferees commend the 
     Commission for supporting the Ukrainian Heritage Project 
     outlined in its 2001 Annual Report and for its commitment to 
     assist the Ukrainian Museum-Archives with the implementation 
     of the pilot project.

                       Commission on Ocean Policy


                         SALARIES AND EXPENSES

       The conference agreement includes $3,000,000 for the 
     Commission on Ocean Policy, instead of $2,500,000 as proposed 
     in the Senate bill. The House bill did not include funding 
     for this Commission.

            Commission on Security and Cooperation in Europe


                         SALARIES AND EXPENSES

       The conference agreement includes $1,499,000 for the 
     Commission on Security and Cooperation in Europe as proposed 
     in the House bill, instead of $1,432,000 as proposed in the 
     Senate bill.

  Congressional-Executive Commission on the People's Republic of China


                         SALARIES AND EXPENSES

       The conference agreement includes $1,000,000 for the 
     Congressional-Executive Commission on the People's Republic 
     of China, instead of $500,000 as proposed in both the House 
     and Senate bills.

                Equal Employment Opportunity Commission


                         SALARIES AND EXPENSES

       The conference agreement includes $310,406,000 for the 
     salaries and expenses of the Equal Employment Opportunity 
     Commission, as proposed in both the House and Senate bills.
       Within the total amount, the conference agreement includes 
     $30,000,000 for payments to State and local Fair Employment 
     Practices Agencies (FEPAs) for specific services to the 
     Commission as proposed in the House bill, instead of 
     $33,000,000 as proposed in the Senate bill. The conference 
     agreement includes, by reference, language in the House 
     report regarding the reduction of the backlog of private 
     sector charges, alternative dispute resolution, contract 
     mediation, and utilizing the experience the FEPAs have in 
     mediation as the Commission continues its alternative dispute 
     resolution programs.

                   Federal Communications Commission


                         SALARIES AND EXPENSES

       The conference agreement includes a total of $245,071,000 
     for the salaries and expenses of the Federal Communications 
     Commission (FCC), instead of $238,597,000 as provided in the 
     House bill, and $252,545,000 as proposed in the Senate bill. 
     Of the amounts provided, $218,757,000 is to be derived from 
     offsetting fee collections, as provided in both the House and 
     Senate bills, resulting in a net direct appropriation of 
     $26,314,000.
       The conference agreement does not include Senate report 
     language regarding excellence in engineering. The conferees 
     recommend that the Commission pursue a modified approach to 
     an ``Excellence in Engineering'' effort. The purpose of this 
     effort would be to reestablish the engineering preeminence of 
     the Commission, which must be more fluent in technology than 
     the entities it regulates. The conferees recommend that the 
     Commission establish a means by which colleges and 
     universities may submit proposals to advance cooperative 
     efforts towards excellence in engineering. Before any actions 
     are taken in this regard, the Commission shall submit a 
     report to the Committees on Appropriations under the 
     provisions of Section 605 of this Act.
       The conferees reiterate concerns about the declining 
     standards of broadcast television and the impact of this 
     decline on America's children. The conferees expect the FCC 
     to continue in its efforts to address these concerns.

                      Federal Maritime Commission


                         SALARIES AND EXPENSES

       The conference agreement includes $16,458,000 for the 
     salaries and expenses of the Federal Maritime Commission, 
     instead of $15,466,000 as proposed in the House bill and 
     $17,450,000 as proposed in the Senate bill.

                        Federal Trade Commission


                         SALARIES AND EXPENSES

       The conference agreement includes $155,982,000 for the 
     Federal Trade Commission (FTC) as proposed by the House, 
     instead of $156,270,000 as proposed by the Senate. This 
     amount will be offset with Hart-Scott-Rodino fee collections, 
     regardless of the year of collection, resulting in no direct 
     appropriations. The conference agreement adopts the Senate 
     bill language structure.
       The conferees believe that the FTC should continue to 
     expand its efforts in child protection and expect the 
     Commission to engage in the three initiatives described in 
     the Senate report in fiscal year 2002: consumer research and 
     workshops, an underage shopper-retail compliance survey, and 
     marketing and data collection. In addition, the conferees 
     expect the FTC to continue its efforts with monitoring the 
     Children's Online Privacy Protection Act.
       The conferees are concerned about children gambling through 
     the Internet. The FTC is directed to monitor online gambling 
     sites to determine if these sites are being marketed to 
     children and if proper procedures are in place to prevent 
     participation in gambling activities by persons too young to 
     gamble. The FTC should prepare materials to educate parents 
     about online gambling and its availability to children, and 
     keep the Committees on Appropriations apprised of its efforts 
     in this area.

                       Legal Services Corporation


               PAYMENT TO THE LEGAL SERVICES CORPORATION

       The conference agreement includes $329,300,000 for the 
     payment to the Legal Services Corporation, as proposed by the 
     House and Senate.


         Administrative Provisions--Legal Services Corporation

       The conference agreement includes language to continue the 
     terms and conditions included under this section in previous 
     Appropriations Acts. The conference agreement includes House 
     language regarding a legal correction to the provisions.

                        Marine Mammal Commission


                         SALARIES AND EXPENSES

       The conference agreement includes $1,957,000 for the 
     salaries and expenses of the Marine Mammal Commission, as 
     proposed in the Senate bill, instead of $1,732,000 as 
     proposed in the House bill. Senate report language regarding 
     a workshop is included by reference.

           National Veterans Business Development Corporation

       The conference agreement includes $4,000,000 for the 
     Corporation, as proposed in both the House and Senate bills.

                       Pacific Charter Commission


                         SALARIES AND EXPENSES

       The conference agreement includes $1,500,000 for the 
     Pacific Charter Commission, instead of $2,500,000 as proposed 
     in the House bill. The Senate bill did not include funding 
     for the Commission.

                   Securities and Exchange Commission


                         SALARIES AND EXPENSES

       The conference agreement includes $437,900,000 for the 
     Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) as proposed in the 
     House bill, instead of $514,047,000 as proposed in the Senate 
     bill. The conference agreement appropriates $109,500,000 from 
     fees collected in previous fiscal years, and $328,400,000 
     from fees to be collected in fiscal year 2002.
       The conference agreement includes language to allow certain 
     offsetting collections to continue to be credited to this 
     account, as

[[Page H8031]]

     proposed in the Senate bill. The conference agreement also 
     includes new language regarding fiscal year 2003 offsetting 
     collections.
       Any offsetting fee collections in fiscal year 2002 in 
     excess of $328,400,000 will remain available for the 
     Securities and Exchange Commission in future years through 
     the regular appropriations process.
       The conference agreement includes, by reference, language 
     in the Senate report on Internet fraud and the Office of 
     Economic Analysis, and language in the House report 
     commending recent SEC actions to increase enforcement of 
     disclosure rules.

                     Small Business Administration


                         SALARIES AND EXPENSES

       The conference agreement provides an appropriation of 
     $308,476,000 for the Small Business Administration (SBA) 
     Salaries and Expenses account, instead of $310,581,000 as 
     proposed in the House bill and $333,233,000 as proposed in 
     the Senate bill.
       Operating Expenses.--The conference agreement provides a 
     total of $161,482,000 for SBA's regular operating expenses 
     under this account. In addition, a total of $138,854,000 may 
     be transferred to and merged with this account for indirect 
     operating costs from the Business Loans and Disaster Loans 
     program accounts. The conferees also agree that the SBA will 
     have an additional $3,000,000 in fee receipts available for 
     operating expenses. This will result in a total availability 
     of $303,336,000 for the operating expenses of the SBA, an 
     increase of $6,800,000 above the comparable fiscal year 2001 
     amount.
       Relationship with Budget Office.--The conferees expect that 
     Committee inquiries and requests for information and 
     assistance will continue to be coordinated primarily through 
     SBA's Office of the Chief Financial Officer, as is consistent 
     with Committee relationships with the various departments and 
     agencies covered under this Act. The workload generated in 
     the budget process is large and growing, and therefore, a 
     positive, responsive relationship, such as the one that 
     exists between the Committees and the Office of the Chief 
     Financial Officer, is absolutely essential to the 
     appropriations process.
       Systems Modernization.--The conference agreement does not 
     include any new funding for systems modernization and 
     workforce transformation. Systems modernization expenditures 
     during fiscal year 2002 from funds provided in previous 
     fiscal years shall be subject to the submission of project 
     spending plans through the reprogramming process in 
     accordance with section 605 of this Act. In early 2001, the 
     SBA revised the scope of the loan monitoring system (LMS) 
     project to focus it on lender oversight and risk management. 
     The conferees direct the SBA to develop a project plan that 
     will provide a basis for future funding and oversight of 
     project activities. The project plan should include: a 
     statement of the objectives and scope of the revised LMS 
     project; the relationship of each business process to mission 
     objectives and performance goals; project management 
     organization information; and a schedule of major project 
     activities, each with a description of accountable officials, 
     resource requirements, deliverables, costs to completion, and 
     target completion dates. The project plan should be updated 
     quarterly and made available to the Committees.
       The conferees remain skeptical that the SBA can 
     productively use all the funding obligated to FEDSIM for the 
     loan monitoring system in fiscal year 2002. As an 
     alternative, the conferees expect the SBA to use part of the 
     available systems modernization funding to implement phase II 
     of the joint accounting and administrative system project 
     where the spending would bring about meaningful and more 
     immediate efficiencies to the operation of the SBA.
       Non-Credit Programs.--The conference agreement includes the 
     following amounts for non-credit programs. No funding shall 
     be allocated for programs not listed:

       Small Business Development Centers (SBDCs).--Of the amounts 
     provided for SBDCs, the conference agreement includes 
     $2,000,000 to continue the SBDC Defense transition program, 
     and $1,000,000 to continue the Environmental Compliance 
     Project, as directed in the House report. In addition, the 
     conference agreement includes language, as proposed in the 
     Senate bill, making funds for the SBDC program available for 
     two years. The conference agreement does not include language 
     proposed in the Senate bill earmarking funds for a certain 
     grant program.
       The conference agreement adopts language included in the 
     House report directing the SBA to fully fund LowDoc 
     Processing Centers, to continue activities assisting small 
     businesses to adapt to a paperless procurement environment, 
     and to improve the credibility of budget requests. The 
     conference agreement also adopts language in the Senate 
     report regarding the submission of a plan for the collocation 
     of SBA assistance centers.


                      OFFICE OF INSPECTOR GENERAL

       The conference agreement provides $11,464,000 for the SBA 
     Office of Inspector General, instead of $11,927,000 as 
     proposed in the House bill and $11,000,000 as proposed in the 
     Senate bill. The conference agreement does not include 
     language in the Senate report on OIG activities.
       An additional $500,000 has been provided under the 
     administrative expenses of the Disaster Loans program account 
     to be made available to the Office of Inspector General for 
     work associated with oversight of the Disaster Loans program.


                     BUSINESS LOANS PROGRAM ACCOUNT

       The conference agreement includes $208,860,000 under the 
     SBA Business Loans program account, instead of $217,500,000 
     as proposed in the House bill and $224,360,000 as proposed in 
     the Senate-reported amendment.
       The conference agreement includes $1,860,000 for the costs 
     of direct loans as proposed in the Senate bill, instead of 
     $1,500,000 as proposed in the House bill. This amount will 
     support an estimated fiscal year 2002 program level of over 
     $27,000,000.
       7(a) General Business Loans.--The conference agreement 
     provides $78,000,000 in subsidy appropriations for the 7(a) 
     general business guaranteed loan program, instead of 
     $87,000,000 as proposed in the House bill and $93,500,000 as 
     proposed in the Senate bill. When combined with an estimated 
     $22,000,000 in available carryover balances and recoveries, 
     this amount will subsidize an estimated fiscal year 2002 
     program level of up to $9,435,000,000, assuming a subsidy 
     rate of 1.07%. In addition, the conference agreement includes 
     a provision, as proposed in both the House and Senate bills, 
     requiring the SBA to notify the Committees in accordance with 
     section 605 of this Act prior to providing a total program 
     level greater than $10,000,000,000.
       The conference agreement includes required language placing 
     program level limitations on the 504 CDC and the SBIC 
     programs instead of similar language in both the House and 
     Senate reports.
       The conferees are concerned that the Administration's 
     prevailing subsidy rate model uses assumptions that do not 
     reflect recent program performance of either the 7(a) program 
     or the 504 program, resulting in the possibility that 
     borrowers and lenders pay higher than necessary fees to 
     participate in the programs. The conferees direct the SBA to 
     work with OMB to develop a new methodology that more 
     accurately calculates the default rates for these programs 
     while efforts are underway to shift to a full econometric 
     analysis model, and to submit a progress report to the 
     Committees by January 15, 2002. The conferees further expect 
     that the results of this new methodology will be reflected in 
     a reduced appropriations requirement for the 7(a) program in 
     the SBA's fiscal year 2003 budget request.
       In addition, the conference agreement includes $129,000,000 
     for administrative expenses to carry out the direct and 
     guaranteed loan programs as proposed in both the House and 
     Senate bills, and makes such funds available to be 
     transferred to and merged with appropriations for Salaries 
     and Expenses.


                     DISASTER LOANS PROGRAM ACCOUNT

       The conference agreement includes a total of $209,714,000 
     for this account, of which $87,360,000 is for the subsidy 
     costs for disaster loans and $122,354,000 is for 
     administrative expenses associated with the disaster loans 
     program. The House bill proposed $84,510,000 for loans and 
     $120,354,000 for administrative expenses. The Senate bill 
     provided $79,510,000 for loans and $125,354,000 for 
     administrative expenses.
       For disaster loans, the conference agreement assumes that 
     the $87,360,000 subsidy appropriation, when combined with 
     $30,000,000 in carryover balances and recoveries, will 
     provide a total disaster loan program level of $800,000,000.
       The conference agreement includes language, as proposed in 
     both the House and Senate bills, designating amounts for 
     direct and indirect administrative expenses, and allowing 
     appropriations for indirect administrative costs to be 
     transferred to and merged with appropriations for Salaries 
     and Expenses under certain conditions. The conference 
     agreement includes $112,000,000 for direct administrative 
     expenses, and $9,854,000 for indirect administrative 
     expenses. The amount provided for direct administrative 
     expenses, when combined with an estimated $3,000,000 in 
     carryover balances, will provide a total of $115,000,000 for 
     this activity.
       The conference agreement includes a provision that any 
     amount in excess of $9,854,000 to be transferred to Salaries 
     and Expenses from the Disaster Loans Program account for 
     indirect administrative expenses shall be treated as a 
     reprogramming of funds under section 605 of this Act. In 
     addition, any such

[[Page H8032]]

     reprogramming shall be accompanied by a report from the 
     Administrator on the anticipated effect of the proposed 
     transfer on the ability of the SBA to cover the full annual 
     requirements for direct administrative costs of disaster 
     loan-making and -servicing.
       Of the amounts provided for administrative expenses under 
     this heading, $500,000 is to be transferred to and merged 
     with the Office of Inspector General account for oversight 
     and audit activities related to the Disaster Loans program.


        ADMINISTRATIVE PROVISION--SMALL BUSINESS ADMINISTRATION

       The conference agreement includes a provision providing SBA 
     with the authority to transfer funds between appropriations 
     accounts as proposed in both the House and Senate bills.

                        State Justice Institute


                         SALARIES AND EXPENSES

       The conference agreement provides $3,000,000 for the State 
     Justice Institute, instead of $6,835,000 as proposed by the 
     House and $6,225,000 as proposed by the Senate. These funds 
     are available for fiscal year 2002 only. The conferees do not 
     recommend continued Federal support for the Institute beyond 
     fiscal year 2002. The termination of funding for this program 
     does not necessarily mean the dissolution of the Institute. 
     The conferees encourage the Institute to solicit private 
     donations and resources from State and local agencies.

              United States--Canada Alaska Rail Commission


                         Salaries and Expenses

       The conference agreement includes $2,000,000 for a new 
     commission to explore the feasibility of connecting 
     continental railway systems to the Alaska railway, instead of 
     $4,000,000 as proposed in the Senate bill. The House bill did 
     not include funding for this commission.

                      TITLE VI--GENERAL PROVISIONS

       The conference agreement includes the following general 
     provisions:
       Sec. 601.--The conference agreement includes section 601, 
     identical in both the House and Senate bills, regarding the 
     use of appropriations for publicity or propaganda purposes.
       Sec. 602.--The conference agreement includes section 602, 
     identical in both the House and Senate bills, regarding the 
     availability of appropriations for obligation beyond the 
     current fiscal year.
       Sec. 603.--The conference agreement includes section 603, 
     identical in both the House and Senate bills, regarding the 
     use of funds for consulting services.
       Sec. 604.--The conference agreement includes section 604, 
     as proposed in the House bill, providing that should any 
     provision of the Act be held to be invalid, the remainder of 
     the Act would not be affected. The Senate bill did not 
     include this provision, which has been carried in previous 
     years.
       Sec. 605.--The conference agreement includes section 605, 
     identical in both the House and Senate bills, establishing 
     the policy by which funding available to the agencies funded 
     under this Act may be reprogrammed for other purposes.
       Sec. 606.--The conference agreement includes section 606, 
     identical to the House bill and section 607 in the Senate 
     bill, regarding the construction, repair or modification of 
     National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration vessels in 
     overseas shipyards.
       Sec. 607.--The conference agreement includes section 607, 
     as proposed in the House bill, regarding the purchase of 
     American-made products. The Senate bill did not include this 
     provision, which has been carried in previous years.
       Sec. 608.--The conference agreement includes section 608, 
     as proposed in the House bill, which prohibits funds in the 
     bill from being used to implement, administer, or enforce any 
     guidelines of the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission 
     similar to proposed guidelines covering harassment based on 
     religion published by the EEOC in October, 1993. The Senate 
     bill included a similar provision as section 609 with a minor 
     technical difference.
       Sec. 609.--The conference agreement includes section 609, 
     as proposed in the House bill, prohibiting the use of funds 
     for any United Nations peacekeeping mission that involves 
     U.S. Armed Forces under the command or operational control of 
     a foreign national unless the President certifies that the 
     involvement is in the national security interest. The Senate 
     bill included a similar provision as section 610 with a minor 
     technical difference.
       Sec. 610.--The conference agreement includes section 610, 
     identical to the House bill and section 611 in the Senate 
     bill, that prohibits use of funds to expand the U.S. 
     diplomatic presence in Vietnam beyond the level in effect on 
     July 11, 1995, unless the President makes a certification 
     that several conditions have been met regarding Vietnam's 
     cooperation with the United States on POW/MIA issues.
       Sec. 611.--The conference agreement includes section 611, 
     proposed as section 612 in the Senate bill, which permanently 
     prohibits the use of funds appropriated or otherwise made 
     available to provide certain amenities for Federal prisoners. 
     The House bill included a similar provision as section 611, 
     but did not propose to make the prohibition permanent or 
     apply the prohibition to non-appropriated funds.
       Sec. 612.--The conference agreement includes section 612, 
     modified from language proposed as section 604 in the Senate 
     bill, regarding a restructuring of the Department of Justice 
     to combat terrorism. The House bill did not include a 
     provision on this matter.
       Sec. 613.--The conference agreement includes section 613, 
     identical in both the House and Senate bills, which requires 
     agencies and departments funded in this Act to absorb any 
     necessary costs related to downsizing or consolidations 
     within the amounts provided to the agency or department.
       Sec. 614.--The conference agreement includes section 614, 
     modified from similar language proposed in both the House and 
     Senate bills, which permanently prohibits funds appropriated 
     or otherwise made available to the Federal Bureau of Prisons 
     from being used to make available any commercially published 
     information or material that is sexually explicit or features 
     nudity to a prisoner.
       Sec. 615.--The conference agreement includes section 615, 
     as proposed in the House bill, which limits funding under the 
     Local Law Enforcement Block Grant to 90 percent to an entity 
     that does not provide public safety officers injured in the 
     line of duty, and as a result separated or retired from their 
     jobs, with health insurance benefits equal to the insurance 
     they received while on duty. The Senate bill did not include 
     a similar provision.
       Sec. 616.--The conference agreement includes section 616, 
     as proposed in the House bill, which prohibits funds provided 
     in this Act from being used to promote the sale or export of 
     tobacco or tobacco products, or to seek the reduction or 
     removal of foreign restrictions on the marketing of tobacco 
     products, provided such restrictions are applied equally to 
     all tobacco or tobacco products of the same type. This 
     provision is not intended to impact routine international 
     trade services provided to all U.S. citizens, including 
     the processing of applications to establish foreign trade 
     zones. The Senate bill did not contain a provision on this 
     matter.
       Sec. 617.--The conference agreement includes section 617, 
     as proposed in the House bill, which extends the prohibition 
     in last year's bill on use of funds to issue a visa to any 
     alien involved in extrajudicial and political killings in 
     Haiti. The provision also removes the name ``Claudy Myrthil'' 
     from the list of victims, and extends the exemption and 
     reporting requirements from last year's provision. The Senate 
     bill included a similar provision on this matter, but did not 
     remove the name ``Claudy Myrthil'' from the list of victims.
       Sec. 618.--The conference agreement includes section 618, 
     identical in both bills but proposed as section 616 in the 
     Senate bill, which prohibits a user fee from being charged 
     for background checks conducted pursuant to the Brady Handgun 
     Control Act of 1993, and prohibits implementation of a 
     background check system which does not require or result in 
     destruction of certain information.
       Sec. 619.--The conference agreement includes section 619, 
     modified from language proposed in the House bill and as 
     section 617 in the Senate bill, which delays obligation of 
     any receipts deposited or available in the Crime Victims Fund 
     in excess of $550,000,000 until the following fiscal year. 
     The conferees have taken this action to protect against wide 
     fluctuations in receipts into the Fund, and to ensure that a 
     stable level of funding will remain available for these 
     programs in future years. The conference agreement waives 
     this limitation with regard to funding made available by 
     Public Law 107-38.
       Sec. 620.--The conference agreement includes section 620, 
     as proposed in the House bill, which prohibits the use of 
     Department of Justice funds for programs which discriminate 
     against, denigrate, or otherwise undermine the religious 
     beliefs of students participating in such programs. The 
     Senate bill did not contain a provision on this matter.
       Sec. 621.--The conference agreement includes section 621, 
     modified from language proposed in the House bill and section 
     618 in the Senate bill, which prohibits the use of funds 
     appropriated or otherwise made available to the Departments 
     of State and Justice to process visas for citizens of 
     countries that the Attorney General has determined deny or 
     delay accepting the return of deported citizens.
       Sec. 622.--The conference agreement includes section 622, 
     identical in both bills but proposed as section 619 in the 
     Senate bill, which prohibits the use of Department of Justice 
     funds to transport a maximum or high security prisoner to any 
     facility other than a facility certified by the Bureau of 
     Prisons as appropriately secure to house such a prisoner.
       Sec. 623.--The conference agreement includes section 623, 
     proposed in the Senate bill as section 621, waiving a 
     subsection of the Magnuson-Stevens Fishery Conservation and 
     Management Act as it pertains to funds made available 
     pursuant to that section in the fiscal year 2000 Supplemental 
     Appropriations Act. The House bill did not contain a 
     provision on this matter.
       Sec. 624.--The conference agreement includes section 624, 
     proposed in the Senate bill as section 622, that amends 
     existing law to extend the authority of the States of 
     Washington, Oregon, and California to adopt and enforce State 
     laws and regulations governing fishing and processing in the 
     exclusive economic zone adjacent to that State in any 
     Dungeness crab (Cancer magister) fishery for which there is 
     no fishery management

[[Page H8033]]

     plan in effect under of the Magnuson-Stevens Fishery 
     Conservation and Management Act. The provision extends the 
     sunset of this authority to September 30, 2006. The provision 
     also requires a biennial report on the health of the fishery 
     from the Pacific State Marine Fisheries Commission. The House 
     bill did not include a provision on this matter.
       Sec. 625.--The conference agreement includes section 625, 
     proposed in the Senate bill as section 608, which makes 
     permanent a provision that prohibits the use of funds to 
     increase the salary of a Federal judge or Justice of the 
     Supreme Court, except as may be specifically authorized by 
     Act of Congress. The House bill did not include a provision 
     on this matter.
       Sec. 626.--The conference agreement includes section 626, 
     modified from language proposed as section 629 in the Senate 
     bill, addressing the issue of compensation for victims of 
     international terrorism. This provision requires the 
     Administration to fulfill its commitment to the Congress to 
     develop a comprehensive federal response under which 
     individualized awards of compensation would be made available 
     to a U.S. national who is physically injured or killed as a 
     result of an act of international terrorism or to the 
     relatives of deceased United States victims of terrorism. 
     Objections from all quarters have been repeatedly raised 
     against the current ad hoc approach to compensation for 
     victims of international terrorism. Objections and concerns, 
     however, will no longer suffice. It is imperative that the 
     Secretary of State, in coordination with the Departments of 
     Justice and Treasury and other relevant agencies, develop a 
     legislative proposal that will provide fair and prompt 
     compensation to all U.S. victims of international 
     terrorism. A compensation system already is in place for 
     the victims of the September 11 terrorist attacks; a 
     similar system should be available to victims of 
     international terrorism. Any legislative proposal shall 
     provide for compensation for U.S. victims of prior acts of 
     international terrorism, including those with hostage 
     claims against foreign states. Subsection (c) quashes the 
     State Department's motion to vacate the judgment obtained 
     by plaintiffs in Case Number 1:00CV03110(ESG) in the 
     United States District Court for the District of Columbia. 
     Consistent with current law, subsection (c) does not 
     require the United States Government to make any payments 
     to satisfy the judgment. The House bill did not contain a 
     provision on this matter.
       Sec. 627.--The conference agreement includes section 627, 
     proposed as section 628 in the Senate bill, prohibiting the 
     use of funds by Federal prisons for cable television 
     services, videocassettes, videocassette recorders, or other 
     audiovisual or electronic equipment used primarily for 
     recreational purposes. The House bill did not include a 
     provision on this matter.
       Sec. 628.--The conference agreement includes section 628, 
     modified from language proposed as section 630 in the Senate 
     bill, amending the Communications Satellite Act. The House 
     bill did not contain a provision on this matter.
       Sec. 629.--The conference agreement includes section 629, 
     not included in the House or Senate bills, providing 
     additional amounts for the Small Business Administration, 
     Salaries and Expenses account for a number of small business 
     initiatives.
       Sec. 630.--The conference agreement includes section 630, 
     proposed in the Senate bill as section 624, prohibiting the 
     use of funds for cooperation with, or assistance or other 
     support to, the International Criminal Court or the 
     Preparatory Commission. The House bill does not include a 
     provision on this matter.
       The conference agreement does not include language proposed 
     in both the House and Senate bills regarding civil actions 
     against Japanese corporations for compensation in which the 
     plaintiff alleges that, as an American prisoner of war during 
     World War II, he or she was used as slave or forced labor. 
     The conferees understand that the Administration strongly 
     opposes this language, and is concerned that the inclusion of 
     such language in the Act would be detrimental to the ongoing 
     effort to enlist multilateral support for the campaign 
     against terrorism. The conferees strongly agree that the 
     extraordinary suffering and injury of our former prisoners of 
     war deserve further recognition, and acknowledge the need for 
     such additional consideration.
       The conference agreement includes, by reference, language 
     in the House Report under the heading ``Full Compliance with 
     Telework Directive''. The conferees expect the Judiciary, and 
     all departments and agencies funded under this Act, to be in 
     full compliance with the timetable established in Public Law 
     106-346 for the implementation of telework policies.
