       Sec. 704. The Department of the Interior and Related 
     Agencies Appropriations Act, 2002 (Public Law 107-63), under 
     the head ``Minerals Management Service, Royalty and Offshore 
     Minerals Management'' is amended by striking the word ``and''

       (2) the existing settlement agreement in Biodiversity 
     Associates v. Laverty, Civil Action No. 99-N-2173, filed in 
     the United States District Court for the District of Colorado 
     on September 12, 2000, (referred to in this Act as the 
     ``Settlement'') prevents timely action to reduce the risk 
     of wildfire in the Beaver Park Roadless Area;
       (3) pending litigation (Sierra Club v. U.S. Forest Service, 
     Civ. No. 94-D-2273 (D. Colorado)) prevents timely action to 
     reduce the risk of wildfire in the Norbeck Wildlife Preserve;
       (4) existing administrative and legal processes cannot 
     address the fire danger in time to enable the Secretary of 
     Agriculture to take action to reduce the danger;
       (5) immediate action to address the fire danger in an 
     environmentally responsive manner is supported by the State, 
     local counties, local industry users, and some environmental 
     groups;

[[Page H4947]]

       (6) the addition of 3,600 acres to the Black Elk Wilderness 
     in the Black Hills National Forest is in the public interest;
       (7) the State of South Dakota, Lawrence, Meade and 
     Pennington County fire officials are encouraged to identify 
     ``fire emergency zone'' areas in which public safety may 
     require a moratorium on issuance of new building permits, and 
     identify the changes in conditions (including the adoption of 
     fire-safe building standards) that may be needed to end these

          TITLE II--AMERICAN SERVICE- MEMBERS' PROTECTION ACT

     SEC. 2001. SHORT TITLE.

       This title may be cited as the ``American Servicemembers' 
     Protection Act of 2002''.

     SEC. 2002. FINDINGS.

       Congress makes the following findings:
       (1) On July 17, 1998, the United Nations Diplomatic 
     Conference of Plenipotentiaries on the Establishment of an 
     International Criminal Court, meeting in Rome, Italy, adopted 
     the ``Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court''. The 
     vote on whether to proceed with the statute was 120 in favor 
     to 7 against, with 21 countries abstaining. The United States 
     voted against final adoption of the Rome Statute.
       (2) As of April 30, 2001, 139 countries had signed the Rome 
     Statute and 30 had ratified it. Pursuant to Article 126 of 
     the Rome Statute, the statute will enter into force on the 
     first day of the month after the 60th day following the date 
     on which the 60th country deposits an instrument ratifying 
     the statute.
       (3) Since adoption of the Rome Statute, a Preparatory 
     Commission for the International Criminal Court has met 
     regularly to draft documents to implement the Rome Statute, 
     including Rules of Procedure and Evidence, Elements of 
     Crimes, and a definition of the Crime of Aggression.
       (4) During testimony before the Congress following the 
     adoption of the Rome Statute, the lead United States 
     negotiator, Ambassador David Scheffer stated that the United 
     States could not sign the Rome Statute because certain 
     critical negotiating objectives of the United States had not 
     been achieved. As a result, he stated: ``We are left with 
     consequences that do not serve the cause of international 
     justice.''
       (5) Ambassador Scheffer went on to tell the Congress that: 
     ``Multinational peacekeeping forces operating in a country 
     that has joined the treaty can be exposed to the Court's 
     jurisdiction even if the country of the individual 
     peacekeeper has not joined the treaty. Thus, the treaty 
     purports to establish an arrangement whereby United States 
     armed forces operating overseas could be conceivably 
     prosecuted by the international court even if the United 
     States has not agreed to be bound by the treaty. Not only is 
     this contrary to the most fundamental principles of treaty 
     law, it could inhibit the ability of the United States to use 
     its military to meet alliance obligations and participate in 
     multinational operations, including humanitarian 
     interventions to save civilian lives. Other contributors to 
     peacekeeping operations will be similarly exposed.''.

[[Page H4956]]

       (6) Notwithstanding these concerns, President Clinton 
     directed that the United States sign the Rome Statute on 
     December 31, 2000. In a statement issued that day, he stated 
     that in view of the unremedied deficiencies of the Rome 
     Statute, ``I will not, and do not recommend that my successor 
     submit the Treaty to the Senate for advice and consent until 
     our fundamental concerns are satisfied''.
       (7) Any American prosecuted by the International Criminal 
     Court will, under the Rome Statute, be denied procedural 
     protections to which all Americans are entitled under the 
     Bill of Rights to the United States Constitution, such as the 
     right to trial by jury.
       (8) Members of the Armed Forces of the United States should 
     be free from the risk of prosecution by the International 
     Criminal Court, especially when they are stationed or 
     deployed around the world to protect the vital national 
     interests of the United States. The United States Government 
     has an obligation to protect the members of its Armed Forces, 
     to the maximum extent possible, against criminal prosecutions 
     carried out by the International Criminal Court.
       (9) In addition to exposing members of the Armed Forces of 
     the United States to the risk of international criminal 
     prosecution, the Rome Statute creates a risk that the 
     President and other senior elected and appointed officials of 
     the United States Government may be prosecuted by the 
     International Criminal Court. Particularly if the Preparatory 
     Commission agrees on a definition of the Crime of Aggression 
     over United States objections, senior United States officials 
     may be at risk of criminal prosecution for national security 
     decisions involving such matters as responding to acts of 
     terrorism, preventing the proliferation of weapons of mass 
     destruction, and deterring aggression. No less than members 
     of the Armed Forces of the United States, senior officials of 
     the United States Government should be free from the risk of 
     prosecution by the International Criminal Court, especially 
     with respect to official actions taken by them to protect the 
     national interests of the United States.
       (10) Any agreement within the Preparatory Commission on a 
     definition of the Crime of Aggression that usurps the 
     prerogative of the United Nations Security Council under 
     Article 39 of the charter of the United Nations to 
     ``determine the existence of any . . . . act of aggression'' 
     would contravene the charter of the United Nations and 
     undermine deterrence.
       (11) It is a fundamental principle of international law 
     that a treaty is binding upon its parties only and that it 
     does not create obligations for nonparties without their 
     consent to be bound. The United States is not a party to the 
     Rome Statute and will not be bound by any of its terms. The 
     United States will not recognize the jurisdiction of the 
     International Criminal Court over United States nationals.

     SEC. 2003. WAIVER AND TERMINATION OF PROHIBITIONS OF THIS 
                   TITLE.

       (a) Authority To Initially Waive Sections 5 and 7.--The 
     President is authorized to waive the prohibitions and 
     requirements of sections 2005 and 2007 for a single period of 
     1 year. A waiver under this subsection may be issued only if 
     the President at least 15 days in advance of exercising such 
     authority--
       (1) notifies the appropriate congressional committees of 
     the intention to exercise such authority; and
       (2) determines and reports to the appropriate congressional 
     committees that the International Criminal Court has entered 
     into a binding agreement that--
       (A) prohibits the International Criminal Court from seeking 
     to exercise jurisdiction over the following persons with 
     respect to actions undertaken by them in an official 
     capacity:
       (i) covered United States persons;
       (ii) covered allied persons; and
       (iii) individuals who were covered United States persons or 
     covered allied persons; and
       (B) ensures that no person described in subparagraph (A) 
     will be arrested, detained, prosecuted, or imprisoned by or 
     on behalf of the International Criminal Court.
       (b) Authority To Extend Waiver of Sections 5 and 7.--The 
     President is authorized to waive the prohibitions and 
     requirements of sections 2005 and 2007 for successive periods 
     of 1 year each upon the expiration of a previous waiver 
     pursuant to subsection (a) or this subsection. A waiver under 
     this subsection may be issued only if the President at least 
     15 days in advance of exercising such authority--
       (1) notifies the appropriate congressional committees of 
     the intention to exercise such authority; and
       (2) determines and reports to the appropriate congressional 
     committees that the International Criminal Court--
       (A) remains party to, and has continued to abide by, a 
     binding agreement that--
       (i) prohibits the International Criminal Court from seeking 
     to exercise jurisdiction over the following persons with 
     respect to actions undertaken by them in an official 
     capacity:

     Investigation or Prosecution of a Named Individual.--The 
     President is authorized to waive the prohibitions and 
     requirements of sections 2004 and 2006 to the degree such 
     prohibitions and requirements would prevent United States 
     cooperation with an investigation or prosecution of a named 
     individual by the International Criminal Court. A waiver 
     under this subsection may be issued only if the President at 
     least 15 days in advance of exercising such authority--
       (1) notifies the appropriate congressional committees of 
     the intention to exercise such authority; and
       (2) determines and reports to the appropriate congressional 
     committees that--
       (A) a waiver pursuant to subsection (a) or (b) of the 
     prohibitions and requirements of sections 2005 and 2007 is in 
     effect;
       (B) there is reason to believe that the named individual 
     committed the crime or crimes that are the subject of the 
     International Criminal Court's investigation or prosecution;
       (C) it is in the national interest of the United States for 
     the International Criminal Court's investigation or 
     prosecution of the named individual to proceed; and
       (D) in investigating events related to actions by the named 
     individual, none of the following persons will be 
     investigated, arrested, detained, prosecuted, or imprisoned

     capacity:
       (i) Covered United States persons.
       (ii) Covered allied persons.
       (iii) Individuals who were covered United States persons or 
     covered allied persons.
       (d) Termination of Waiver Pursuant to Subsection (c).--Any 
     waiver or waivers exercised pursuant to subsection (c) of the 
     prohibitions and requirements of sections 2004 and 2006 shall 
     terminate at any time that a waiver pursuant to subsection 
     (a) or (b) of the prohibitions and requirements of sections 
     2005 and 2007 expires and is not extended pursuant to 
     subsection (b).
       (e) Termination of Prohibitions of This Title.--The 
     prohibitions and requirements of sections 2004, 2005, 2006, 
     and 2007 shall cease to apply, and the authority of section 
     2008 shall terminate, if the United States becomes a party to 
     the International Criminal Court pursuant to a treaty made

     the United States.

       (a) Policy.--Effective beginning on the date on which the 
     Rome Statute enters into force pursuant to Article 126 of the 
     Rome Statute, the President should use the voice and vote of 
     the United States in the United Nations Security Council to 
     ensure that each resolution of the Security Council 
     authorizing any peacekeeping operation under chapter VI of 
     the charter of the United Nations or peace enforcement 
     operation under chapter VII of the charter of the United 
     Nations permanently exempts, at a minimum, members of the 
     Armed Forces of the United States participating in such

     undertaken by such personnel in connection with the

     the United Nations Security Council on or after the date that 
     the Rome Statute enters into effect pursuant to Article 126 
     of the Rome Statute, unless the President has submitted to

     subsection (b) is a certification by the President that--

     able to participate in the peacekeeping or peace enforcement 
     operation without risk of criminal prosecution or other

     Security Council permanently exempted, at a minimum, members 
     of the Armed Forces of the United States participating in the 
     operation from criminal prosecution or other assertion of 
     jurisdiction by the International Criminal Court for actions 
     undertaken by them in connection with the operation;
       (2) members of the Armed Forces of the United States are 
     able to participate in the peacekeeping or peace enforcement 
     operation without risk of criminal prosecution or other 
     assertion of jurisdiction by the International Criminal Court 
     because each country in which members of the Armed Forces of 
     the United States participating in the operation will be 
     present either is not a party to the International Criminal 
     Court and has not invoked the jurisdiction of the 
     International Criminal Court pursuant to Article 12 of the 
     Rome Statute, or has entered into an agreement in accordance 
     with Article 98 of the Rome Statute preventing the 
     International Criminal Court from proceeding against members 
     of the Armed Forces of the United States present in that 
     country; or
       (3) the national interests of the United States justify 
     participation by members of the Armed Forces of the United 
     States in the peacekeeping or peace enforcement operation.

     to the International Criminal Court for the purpose of 
     facilitating an investigation, apprehension, or prosecution.

       (3) Pilots flying in Alaska are often the most skilled and 
     best-prepared pilots in the world.
       (4) Air travel within the State of Alaska is often hampered 
     by severe weather conditions and treacherous terrain.
       (5) The United States Government owns nearly \2/3\ of 
     Alaska's landmass, including large tracts of land separating 
     isolated communities within the State.
       (6) Such Federal ownership has inhibited the ability of 
     Alaskans to build roads connecting isolated communities.
       (7) Most communities and a large portion of the population 
     within the State can only be reached by air.
       (8) The vast majority of food items and everyday 
     necessities destined for these isolated communities and 
     populations can only be transported through the air.
       (9) The Intra-Alaska Bypass Mail system, created by 
     Congress and operated by the United States Postal Service 
     under section 5402 of title 39, United States Code, with 
     input from the Department of Transportation, connecting 
     hundreds of rural and isolated communities within

[[Page H4959]]

     the State, is a critical piece of the Alaska and the national 
     transportation system. The system is like a 4-legged stool, 
     designed to--
       (A) provide the most affordable means of delivering food 
     and everyday necessities to these rural and isolated 
     communities;
       (B) establish a system whereby the Postal Service can meet 
     its obligations to deliver mail to every house and business 
     in the United States;
       (C) support affordable and reliable passenger service; and
       (D) support affordable and reliable nonmail freight 
     service.
       (10) Without the Intra-Alaska Bypass Mail system--
       (A) it would be difficult and more expensive for the Postal 
     Service to meet its obligation of delivering mail to every 
     house and business in the United States; and
       (B) food, medicine, freight, and everyday necessities and 
     passenger service for these rural and isolated communities 
     would cost several times the current level.
       (11) Attempts by Congress to support passenger and nonmail 
     freight service in Alaska using the Intra-Alaska Bypass Mail 
     system have yielded some positive results, but some carriers 
     have been manipulating the system by carrying few, if any, 
     passengers and little nonmail freight while earning most of 
     their revenues from the carriage of nonpriority bypass mail.
       (12) As long as the Federal Government continues to own 
     large tracts of land within the State of Alaska which impede 
     access to isolated communities, it is in the best interest of 
     the Postal Service, the residents of Alaska and the United 
     States--
       (A) to ensure that the Intra-Alaska Bypass Mail system 
     remains strong, viable, and affordable for the Postal 
     Service;
       (B) to ensure that residents of rural and isolated 
     communities in Alaska continue to have affordable, reliable, 
     and safe passenger service;
       (C) to ensure that residents of rural and isolated 
     communities in Alaska continue to have affordable, reliable, 
     and safe nonmail freight service;
       (D) to encourage that intra-Alaska air carriers move toward 
     safer, more secure, and more reliable air transportation 
     under the Federal Aviation Administration's guidelines and in 
     accordance with part 121 of title 14, Code of Federal 
     Regulations, where such operations are supported by the needs 
     of the community; and
       (E) that Congress, pursuant to the authority granted under 
     Article I, section 8 of the United States Constitution to 
     establish Post Offices and post roads, make changes to ensure 
     that the Intra-Alaska Bypass Mail system continues to be used 
     to support substantial passenger and nonmail freight service 
     and to reduce costs for the Postal Service.

     operating certificate, the Secretary shall notify the Postal 
     Service. Upon such notification, the Postal Service shall 
     cease tender of mail to such carrier until the Secretary 
     certifies the carrier is operating in a safe manner. Upon 
     such receipt, the carrier shall demonstrate that it otherwise 
     meets the minimum carriage requirements of this section

     two points in the State of Alaska shall not give rise to any 
     contract between the Postal Service and a carrier, nor shall 
     any such carrier acquire any right in continued or future 
     tender of such mail by virtue of past or present receipt of

     determines, based on the Secretary's findings and 
     recommendations of the Postal Service, that an air carrier 
     being tendered nonpriority bush bypass mail is not taking 
     actions to attempt to qualify as a bush passenger or nonmail 
     freight carrier under section 5402 of title 39, United States

     changed by the conference are approved by the committee of 
     conference. The statement of the managers, while repeating 
     some report languages emphasis, is not intended to negate the 
     language referred to above unless expressly provided herein.

                  Title I--Supplemental Appropriations

                               CHAPTER 1

                       DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE

                        Office of the Secretary

       The conference agreement provides an additional $18,000,000 
     for the Office of the Secretary, as proposed by the Senate, 
     with a contingent emergency designation. The House bill did 
     not include funding for this account.

                     Agricultural Research Service


                         SALARIES AND EXPENSES

       The conference agreement provides an additional $8,000,000 
     for the Agricultural Research Service, instead of $16,000,000 
     as proposed by the Senate, with a contingent emergency 
     designation. The funds shall be used as follows: $2,000,000 
     for transmissible spongiform encephalopathy, including 
     chronic wasting disease; $3,000,000 for plant genome 
     sequencing; and $3,000,000 for cattle genome sequencing. The 
     House bill did not include funding for this account.


                        BUILDINGS AND FACILITIES

       The conference agreement provides an additional $25,000,000 
     for the ARS Buildings and Facilities account instead of 
     $50,000,000 as proposed by the Senate, without an emergency 
     designation. The House bill did not include funding for this 
     account. The conference agreement provides funding for 
     continued facility consolidation and modernization at Ames, 
     Iowa.

      Cooperative State Research, Education, and Extension Service


                          Extension Activities

       The conference agreement provides an additional $6,000,000 
     appropriation for the Cooperative State Research, Education, 
     and Extension Service for one-time costs, instead of 
     $16,000,000 as proposed by the Senate, with a contingent 
     emergency designation. The House bill did not include funding 
     for this account.

               Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service


                         SALARIES AND EXPENSES

       The conference agreement provides an additional 
     appropriation of $33,000,000 for the Animal and Plant Health 
     Inspection Service for one-time costs, instead of $10,000,000 
     as proposed by the House and $60,000,000 as proposed by the 
     Senate, with a contingent emergency designation. The 
     conferees direct that these funds be used as follows: 
     $15,000,000 for cooperative agreements with States to prevent 
     and control transmissible spongiform encephalopathy, 
     including chronic wasting disease and scrapie, in farmed and 
     free-ranging animals; $10,000,000 for emergency preparedness; 
     $4,000,000 for physical and operational security; and 
     $4,000,000 for equipment needs and smuggling interdiction.

                   Food Safety and Inspection Service

       The conference agreement provides an additional $13,000,000 
     for FSIS, instead of $15,000,000 as proposed by the Senate, 
     and $2,000,000 as proposed by the House, with a contingent 
     emergency designation. The conferees direct that the funds be 
     used for non-recurring costs associated with the import 
     information system and enhanced international oversight 
     activities. The conferees expect that sufficient funds, up to 
     $10,750,000, be directed toward the purchase of information 
     technology system equipment and services so that FSIS can 
     better communicate with other agencies to identify entry and 
     assess risk of imported products.

                 Natural Resources Conservation Service


               WATERSHED AND FLOOD PREVENTION OPERATIONS

       The conference agreement provides an additional 
     $144,000,000 for Watershed and Flood Prevention Operations, 
     of which $50,000,000 is designated as a contingent emergency, 
     instead of $100,000,000, of which $27,000,000 is designated 
     as an emergency, as proposed by the Senate. The House bill 
     did not include funding for this account. The conferees 
     direct that these funds be used for recovery activities 
     related to disasters that have been identified with priority 
     given to those events occurring in fiscal year 2002.

                           Rural Development


                  RURAL COMMUNITY ADVANCEMENT PROGRAM

       The conference agreement provides an additional $20,000,000 
     for the Rural Community Advancement Program, instead of 
     $25,000,000 as proposed by the Senate, with a contingent 
     emergency designation. The House bill did not include funding 
     for this account.

                        Rural Utilities Service


            LOCAL TELEVISION LOAN GUARANTEE PROGRAM ACCOUNT

                         (Including Rescission)

       The conference agreement provides a rescission of 
     $20,000,000 for the Local Television Loan Guarantee Program 
     as proposed by the Senate. The House bill did not include 
     this rescission.
       The conference agreement provides an additional $8,000,000 
     for the Local Television Loan Guarantee Program account, 
     instead of $20,000,000 as proposed by the Senate, without an 
     emergency designation. The House bill did not include funding 
     for this account.

                       Food and Nutrition Service


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

       The conference agreement provides an additional $75,000,000 
     for the Women, Infants, and Children Program (WIC), to remain 
     available until September 30, 2003, without an emergency 
     designation. These funds are provided to finance rising 
     participation and other increased costs. These funds are to 
     be distributed in the manner and formula that the Secretary 
     deems necessary to respond to caseload requirements, 
     notwithstanding section 17(i) of the Child Nutrition Act of 
     1966, as amended. The conferees direct that these funds be 
     made available to the States for identified needs as quickly 
     as possible. Further, the conferees request a report from the 
     Secretary within 60 days of enactment, describing the process 
     and formula by which these funds were distributed.


                           FOOD STAMP PROGRAM

                              (Rescission)

       The conference agreement rescinds $24,000,000, instead of 
     $33,000,000 as proposed by the Senate. The House bill did not 
     include a rescission for this account.

                DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES

                      Food and Drug Administration


                         SALARIES AND EXPENSES

       The conference agreement provides $17,000,000, to remain 
     available until expended, for Food and Drug Administration, 
     Salaries and Expenses, instead of $18,000,000 as proposed by 
     the House, with a contingent emergency designation. The 
     Senate bill did not include funding for this account. The 
     conference agreement provides for non-recurring costs related 
     to safety activities in the area of medical devices and 
     radiological health, as a consequence of the events of 
     September 11, 2001, such as further work on safety standards 
     for radiation scanners, development and marketing of 
     decontamination devices and enhanced review of imported 
     medical devices. In addition, the conferees note that the 
     Public Health Security and Bioterrorism Preparedness and 
     Response Act of 2002, Public Law 107-188, enacted on June 12, 
     2002, imposes new requirements on the FDA to protect our 
     Nation's food and drug supplies. The conferees direct that 
     the funds provided in this Act be additional available for 
     non-recurring costs related to those responsibilities.


                    GENERAL PROVISIONS--THIS CHAPTER

       House Section 101.--The conference agreement includes a 
     limitation (Section 101) of $33,000,000 for the Export 
     Enhancement Program in fiscal year 2002, instead of a 
     limitation of $28,000,000 as proposed by the House. The 
     Senate bill did not include this limitation.
       Senate Section 101.--The conference agreement includes 
     $10,000,000 (Section 102) as proposed by the Senate, without 
     an emergency designation, for agriculture assistance to 
     producers along the Rio Grande who have suffered economic 
     losses during the 2001 crop year due to the failure of Mexico 
     to deliver water to the United States in accordance with 
     water utilization treaties. The House bill contained no 
     similar provision.
       Senate Section 102.--The conference agreement includes a 
     provision (Section 103) that the Secretary shall carry out 
     the transfer of $200,000,000 under section 2507(a) of the 
     Food Security and Rural Investment Act of 2002 (P.L. 107-171) 
     not later than 14 days after the enactment of this Act, as 
     proposed by the Senate. The House bill contained no similar 
     provision.
       Senate Section 103.--The conference agreement does not 
     include Sense of the Senate language regarding compensation 
     for losses related to avian influenza. The conferees are 
     aware of substantial losses to poultry producers in Virginia, 
     West Virginia, and other states due to the spread of this 
     disease; that these outbreaks are having a detrimental effect 
     on U.S. trade; and that elimination of entire flocks, 
     regardless of pathogen level, is necessary in many cases for 
     disease containment. The conferees expect the Secretary to 
     expeditiously use resources of the Commodity Credit 
     Corporation to compensate producers for losses related to 
     avian influenza and to promote the timely containment of this 
     disease. The House bill contained no similar provision.
       Senate Section 104.--The conference agreement does not 
     include Sense of the Senate language regarding the use of 
     surplus non-fat dry milk for assistance in areas suffering 
     from HIV/AIDS. The conferees are aware that more than 1 
     billion pounds of non-fat dry milk are currently in Commodity 
     Credit Corporation (CCC) inventory, for which storage costs 
     are accruing. The conferees also note the human suffering in 
     many nations resulting from the spread of HIV/AIDS and 
     strongly encourage the Secretary to utilize CCC surplus 
     commodities, including non-fat dry milk, to support programs 
     that provide relief to those suffering from this disease, and 
     for other humanitarian purposes. The House bill contained no 
     similar provision.
       Senate Section 105.--The conference agreement includes a 
     provision (Section 104) that

[[Page H4964]]

     rescinds, prior to the end of fiscal year 2002, and 
     reappropriates funds made available under section 2108(a) of 
     P.L. 107-20, instead of a Senate provision that rescinds 
     these funds upon the enactment of this Act. The House bill 
     contained no similar provision.
       Senate Section 106.--The conference agreement includes a 
     provision (Section 105) as proposed by the Senate, that 
     allows monetized commodities to be used to carry out the 
     purposes of section 416(b)(7)(D)(iv) of the Agricultural Act 
     of 1949. The House bill contained no similar provision.
       Senate Section 107.--The conference agreement includes a 
     provision (Section 106) that allows the Secretary of 
     Agriculture to use an amount not to exceed $12,000,000 from 
     amounts previously appropriated to the Food Safety and 
     Inspection Service under P.L. 106-387 to liquidate over-
     obligation and over-expenditures of the Food Safety and 
     Inspection Service incurred during previous fiscal years. The 
     House bill contained no similar provision.

                               CHAPTER 2

                         DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE

                         General Administration


                         salaries and expenses

       The conference agreement includes $6,750,000 for General 
     Administration, of which $1,000,000 is provided as a 
     contingent emergency requirement. Of the total amount, 
     $5,750,000 is for continued implementation of IDENT/IAFIS 
     fingerprint systems. The Justice Department is directed to 
     continue to provide updates to the Committees on 
     Appropriations as requested regarding the progress of this 
     initiative. The conferees believe that the Department has 
     provided sound oversight of this system, which will link the 
     Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) and Immigration and 
     Naturalization Service (INS) fingerprint databases. The 
     conferees believe that this same integrated oversight should 
     be applied to the development of the INS Entry Exit program 
     and the ``Chimera'' system, which will improve data 
     management and information technology infrastructure.
       The conferees are very concerned that the cost estimates 
     for the Entry Exit System continue to change, that the uses 
     for which funding is requested continue to change, and that 
     the Department of Justice and the Administration have not yet 
     articulated to the Congress the policies that this proposed 
     new system would support. Better planning and interagency 
     coordination will be necessary to create an effective Entry 
     Exit system that will alert Federal law enforcement when 
     would-be terrorists try to gain entry to or leave the U.S. 
     The recommendation includes $1,000,000 for the Entry Exit 
     System, as proposed in the House bill, to be managed by the 
     Justice Management Division (JMD). This funding, together 
     with $13,300,000 provided to the INS in P.L. 107-117, shall 
     be used by JMD to continue efforts to plan the Entry Exit 
     System. The Department is directed to consult with the 
     Committees on Appropriations prior to obligating these funds 
     to ensure that this system links existing law enforcement and 
     intelligence databases and takes advantage of existing 
     infrastructure and programs already in operation at ports of 
     entry, such as the Dedicated Commuter Lanes program. JMD 
     should also seek input from the appropriate Executive Branch 
     agencies to coordinate with other law enforcement, border 
     security, and intelligence community information systems. 
     Further, given the importance of and uncertain total resource 
     requirements of this program, the Conferees will request that 
     the General Accounting Office provide oversight and input to 
     JMD regarding every aspect of program development, including 
     information technology plans, infrastructure needs, and 
     staffing.
       The conference agreement also includes language that funds 
     shall derived from the Working Capital Fund to develop a plan 
     regarding the INS ``Chimera'' system for review by the 
     Committees on Appropriations, as directed in the Senate 
     report. This project shall also be managed by JMD. The 
     conference agreement also adopts Senate direction regarding a 
     briefing on lessons learned on the implementation of the 
     Trilogy program. Centralizing the management and 
     implementation of these systems will ensure that they will be 
     interoperable and accessible by other relevant Federal 
     agencies.
       Serious concerns remain regarding how counterterrorism 
     activities are coordinated within the Justice Department. In 
     recent months, Justice has expanded the number of Joint 
     Terrorism Task Forces, and created the National Security 
     Coordinating Council, Regional Terrorist Task Forces, Anti-
     Terrorism Task Forces and the Foreign Terrorist Tracking Task 
     Force. However, Justice has not successfully articulated how 
     these effort enhance existing counterterrorism activities or 
     improve coordination among Federal, State and local agencies.
       The Deputy Attorney General (DAG), as the chair of the 
     National Security Coordination Council, has been designated 
     as the lead official coordinating the Justice Department's 
     activities relating to combating domestic terrorism. The DAG 
     is directed to submit to the Committees on Appropriations a 
     strategic plan for a coordinated Justice Department effort in 
     this regard. Further, the DAG is directed to submit a 
     detailed Justice Department counterterrorism budget summary 
     by program no later than 90 days after the enactment of this 
     bill and simultaneously with the President's annual budget 
     request thereafter. The DAG is also directed to report 
     quarterly on actual expenditures pursuant to the plan. The 
     budget summary and expenditure report should begin with the 
     fourth quarter of fiscal year 2002.
       The conference agreement does not include the Senate 
     language creating Principal Associate Deputy Attorney General 
     for Combating Terrorism.

                            Legal Activities


             salaries and expenses, united states attorneys

                              (rescission)

       The conference agreement includes a rescission of 
     $7,000,000 from the unobligated balances available in the 
     ``Salaries and Expenses, United States Attorneys'' account 
     provided in P.L. 107-77.


         Salaries and Expenses, United States marshals Service

       The conference agreement includes $37,900,000 for the 
     U.S.Marshals Service to address increased security 
     requirements associated with terrorist and other high threat 
     trials. The conferees direct the U.S. Marshals Service to 
     submit a spending plan for these funds by August 15, 2002.

                       Federal Prisoner Detention


                              (rescission)

       The conference agreement includes a rescission of 
     $30,000,000 from available unobligated balances in the 
     Federal Prisoner Detention account.

                         Assets Forfeiture Fund


                              (rescission)

       The conference agreement includes a rescission of 
     $5,000,000 from the Assets Forfeiture Fund Super Surplus.

                    Federal Bureau Of Investigation


                         Salaries and Expenses

       The conference agreement includes $175,000,000 for the 
     Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) ``Salaries and 
     Expenses'' account, including $165,000,000 as a contingent 
     emergency requirement.
       Of the total amount, $12,500,000 is provided for additional 
     cybercrime, counterterrorism, and counterintelligence 
     analytical support staff. This increase will ensure that 
     there are more support staff to analyze the large volume of 
     information that FBI agents are collecting as part of their 
     terrorism investigations. The conference agreement also 
     includes $20,000,000 for the Drug Enforcement 
     Administration's (DEA) Special Operations Division, to be 
     transferred expeditiously from the FBI to the DEA in 
     accordance with the previously established MOU; $10,000,000 
     for the Foreign Terrorist Tracking Task Force; and $2,000,000 
     for language translation services.
       The conferees remain concerned with the FBI's information 
     technology infrastructure. A robust information technology 
     infrastructure is essential to the FBI's ability to securely 
     manage complex investigations; combat terrorism and 
     cybercrime; and collect and disseminate intelligence. 
     Therefore, the conference agreement includes funds about the 
     request to speed implementation of information technology 
     enhancements. Funding includes $8,000,000 for Trilogy 
     contractor support; $40,121,000 for investigative data 
     warehousing; $18,435,000 for information assurance; 
     $7,500,000 for collaborative capabilities; $7,500,000 for FBI 
     HQ continuity of operations; $8,000,000 for digital storage 
     and retrieval of documents related to counterterrorism 
     investigations; $6,444,000 for mainframe upgrades; $4,000,000 
     for data mining and visualization; and $19,400,000 for the 
     National Infrastructure Protection Center Special 
     Technologies and Applications Unit. The FBI shall brief the 
     Committees on Appropriations prior to obligation of these 
     funds to ensure that these information technology investments 
     are integrated with activities of the Joint Terrorism Task 
     Forces, the Foreign Terrorist Tracking Task Force, Trilogy, 
     and the FBI's Information Assurance Program.
       The conference agreement also provides, as directed in the 
     Senate report, $8,000,000 for white collar crime squads and 
     $3,100,000 for Computer Analysis and Response Team equipment. 
     This funding will provide the FBI with technical resources to 
     combat corporate corruption and the growing threat of cyber 
     crime.
       In addition, the conferees direct the FBI to use 
     $44,713,000 expected to be carried over from funds provided 
     in P.L. 107-117 to establish additional Legal Attache offices 
     and provide for information infrastructure enhancements for 
     Legal Attache offices. The FBI shall submit to the Committees 
     a list of proposed new Legal Attache offices no later than 
     August 16, 2002. As directed in the Senate report, this list 
     should also include a review of and sight-sizing proposal for 
     existing offices to ensure that resources are deployed to the 
     highest priority locations. The proposal should be 
     coordinated with the State Department and other relevant 
     Federal agencies, such as the National Security Council, to 
     ensure that FBI plans and activities are consistent with 
     other diplomatic and foreign policy overseas presence 
     priorities.

                 Immigration and Naturalization Service


                         Salaries and Expenses

                     Enforcement and Border Affairs

       The conference agreement includes $81,250,000 for the 
     Immigration and Naturalization Service ``Salaries and 
     Expenses'' account, including $46,250,000 as a contingent 
     emergency requirement. The conferees are concerned that INS 
     and Department of Justice management have not provided 
     effective oversight to ensure that the User Fee account 
     remains solvent, and are therefore providing a one-time 
     appropriation of $25,000,000

[[Page H4965]]

     to ensure that sufficient staff are hired and information 
     technology enhancements are provided as directed in the 
     fiscal year 2002 Appropriations Act. To support the INS 
     homeland security mission with regard to enforcing 
     deportation orders, $25,000,000 is provided for the Absconder 
     Initiative. To address chronic vehicle shortfalls, 
     $25,000,000 is provided for fleet management. The conferees 
     note that the Congress provides base funding every year to 
     the INS for both new and replacement vehicles, and the INS is 
     expected to use these appropriations for both new and 
     replacement vehicles instead of redirecting these resources 
     to other areas. The conferees direct the INS to submit a 
     spending plan prior to obligating any of the funding provided 
     under this heading.
       To improve retention of Border Patrol Agents and 
     Immigration Inspectors, the conference agreement includes 
     $6,250,000 for pay upgrades for Border Patrol Agents and 
     Immigration Inspectors for the remainder of fiscal year 2002. 
     The conferees are concerned that the Administration has 
     failed to address law enforcement pay equity issues in a 
     comprehensive manner, and expects it to develop and quickly 
     implement an equitable pay scale to ensure fair compensation

     Department's electronic dissemination of terrorism-related 
     threat information to State and local communities as proposed 
     in the House bill. The conferees direct the Office of the 
     Deputy Attorney General, in coordination with the 
     Department's Chief Information Officer, the Federal Bureau of 
     Investigation and the Office of Justice Programs, to report 
     to the Committees on Appropriations by September 1, 2002,

     with the Department's information systems.
       Equipment Formula Grants.--The conference agreement 
     includes $65,000,000 for equipment grants and adopts, by 
     reference, language in the Senate report regarding the 
     refinement of the Office of Domestic Preparedness' grant 
     making process to expedite and facilitate the delivery of 
     funds and services. The conferees also adopt, by reference, 
     language in the Senate report regarding matching 
     requirements.
       The conferees adopt, by reference, language in the Senate 
     report requiring the IAB to submit a report regarding 
     equipment standards, and language in the House report 
     regarding State and local coordination in the development and 
     implementation of Statewide strategic plans.
       Security Clearance.--The conference agreement includes 
     $1,300,000 for security clearances for State and local first 
     responders as described in the Senate report.
       Training.--The conference agreement includes $41,000,000 
     for first responder training, including $5,000,000 for the 
     development of standards as described in the House report and 
     $36,000,000 to establish a competitive discretionary training 
     grant program.
       The conferees recognize the critical need for State and 
     local first responders to receive training to counter weapons 
     of mass destruction (WMD) and terrorism threats. This new 
     competitive discretionary grant program is to be designed and 
     implemented by the Office of Domestic Preparedness (ODP). The 
     conferees direct ODP to develop and submit proposed 
     guidelines for the program to the Committees on 
     Appropriations no later than 45 days after enactment of this 
     Act. The conferees expect that these proposed guidelines 
     should at a minimum allow State and local agencies, non-
     profit organizations, and universities to be eligible for 
     grants, including former and current ODP grant recipients. 
     The conferees expect the grant approval process to include a 
     review of training curricula and materials to ensure that 
     grantees are using the latest WMD and counterterrorism 
     training techniques. ODP will need adequate resources to 
     implement this new program, therefore the conferees direct 
     that the current hiring freeze be lifted and the Office be 
     fully staffed within available resources.
       The conferees adopt, by reference, language in the Senate 
     report regarding a report on the coordination of Federal 
     training. The conferees expect the report to be submitted no 
     later than January 31, 2002.
       Exercise.--The conference agreement includes $14,000,000 
     for exercises, including $4,000,000 for TOPOFF II as proposed 
     in the Senate report.
       CapWIN.--The Federal government is the largest single 
     employer in the Washington D.C. metro area and the conferees 
     are committed to the safety of Federal employees. The 
     conferees are concerned that in the event of another 
     terrorist attack in the Washington, DC area the Executive 
     Branch should have a communications system in place that 
     will inform all of the Federal agencies in the 
     metropolitan area of threat and public health information 
     along with evacuation procedures.
       Public Law 107-117 provided $20,000,000 for the Capitol 
     Wireless Integrated Network (CapWIN). This system will 
     integrate law enforcement, fire, emergency medical, 
     transportation, and hazmat information from Maryland, 
     Virginia, the District of Columbia, and certain Federal 
     agencies. This system will ensure that responders from 
     various jurisdictions are able to communicate in the field 
     and through the use of mobile computing will also greatly 
     enhance the amount of information available to all types of 
     responders both in the field and at emergency operations 
     centers.
       The conferees direct the Office of Justice Programs, in 
     consultation with the Office of Personnel Management (OPM) 
     and the General Services Administration, to evaluate whether 
     CapWIN can be expanded to include Federal agencies located in 
     the Washington, DC metro area to ensure that in the even of a 
     terrorist attack Federal agencies are able to maintain 
     communications with Executive Branch leaders. The conferees 
     believe the expansion of CapWIN to Federal agencies will 
     enhance agencies' abilities to share electronic information. 
     The conferees understand that, once developed, CapWIN should 
     not require a significant investment of resources for Federal 
     agencies to access. it.
       The conferees direct the Department of Justice, in 
     consultation with the OPM, to submit a report to the 
     Committee on Appropriations, no later than December 1, 2002, 
     on the status of expanding CapWIN to Federal agencies within 
     the Washington, DC metro area. The report shall include an 
     implementation plan, including funding required and 
     procedures for use of the system in the event of a terrorist 
     attack. The report should also include alternatives, if the 
     expansion of CapWIN is not the appropriate solution to allow 
     Federal agencies to communicate in a crisis situation.
       The conference agreement rescinds $600,000 from funds 
     available to the Office of the Assistant Attorney General for 
     Office of Justice Programs, $1,400,000 less than the 
     rescission proposed in the Senate bill. The conference 
     agreement does not include the $2,000,000 rescission proposed 
     in the Senate bill from funds available to the Office of 
     Congressional and Public Affairs.


                           crime victims fund

       The conference agreement adopts, by reference, language in 
     the House report under this heading.

                  community oriented policing services

       The conference agreement includes $50,000,000 as a 
     contingent emergency requirement for a new Office of 
     Community Oriented Policing Services (COPS) Interoperable 
     Communications Technology program, to be designed and 
     implemented by the COPS Office, in consultation with the 
     Office of Science and Technology (OS&T) of the National 
     Institute of Justice, and the Bureau of Justice Assistance 
     (BJA). The conferees seek to utilize the expertise of all 
     three organizations so as to create a grant program that is 
     highly responsive to the immediate needs of the State and 
     local law enforcement community and that takes full advantage 
     of the expertise and lessons learned from OS&T and BJA 
     research and development in the field of interoperable law 
     enforcement communications, particularly project AGILE. In 
     addition, the conferees are aware that the Office of Domestic 
     Preparedness and the National Institute of Standards and 
     Technology (NIST) have significant experience in law 
     enforcement communications, and recommend that the COPS 
     Office seek guidance from these agencies when designing and 
     implementing this program.
       This program should address the critical need of law 
     enforcement to improve cross-jurisdictional communication and 
     information sharing. The conferees direct the COPS Office to 
     develop and submit proposed guidelines for the program to the 
     Committees on Appropriations no later than 45 days after 
     enactment of this Act. Consistent with the COPS Office's 
     existing grant programs, the COPS Interoperable 
     Communications Technology program should include a 25 percent 
     local match requirement. The conferees are aware that the 
     Federal Emergency Management Administration (FEMA) has a 
     similar program designed for Fire Departments and EMS and 
     therefore COPS should consult with FEMA to ensure that these 
     programs are providing compatible communications equipment 
     that will allow interoperability among all first responders 
     in a given jurisdiction. The conferees urge that grants under 
     these programs be used, whenever possible, to purchase cost 
     effective cross band repeaters or other frequency or band 
     patching solutions to allow agencies to make existing 
     communications systems interoperable. Because of the 
     complexities associated with these systems, the conferees 
     provide $3,00,000, within available amounts, to be 
     transferred to the Bureau of Justice Assistance to provide 
     technical assistance, utilizing OS&T's expertise, to grantees 
     regarding the implementation of the equipment.
       The conferees understand and support the need for minimum 
     standards for law enforcement communications technology. 
     Therefore, OS&T should assist the COPS Office in 
     incorporating existing minimum standards into the formulation 
     of this grant program. The conferees also provide, within 
     available amounts, $5,000,000 to be transferred to NIST to 
     continue the efforts of the Office of Law Enforcement 
     Standards (OLES) regarding the development of a comprehensive 
     suite of minimum standards for law enforcement 
     communications.
       The conferees direct that the current hiring freeze in the 
     COPS Office be lifted and the Office be fully staffed within 
     available resources to support the implementation of this new 
     program. In addition, the conferees are aware that a number 
     of cross band repeaters have been distributed by the Federal 
     government to local jurisdictions throughout the United 
     States. The conferees direct that NIJ provide an inventory no 
     later than January 1, 2003, regarding the locations of all of 
     these systems.

    Total....................................................15,000,000

       The conferees agree that Fulbright Exchanges funded in this 
     Act will focus on the themes of values/religious tolerance, 
     American studies, media training and US/Afghan women's 
     issues. The conference agreement also includes, by reference, 
     language in the House report regarding the allocation of this 
     funding for countries not already covered under the Freedom 
     Support Act.


            embassy security, construction, and maintenance

       The conference agreement includes $210,516,000, including 
     $10,000,000 as a contingent emergency requirement. This 
     includes $130,516,000 for the construction and renovation of 
     diplomatic facilities in Kabul, Afghanistan, and $80,000,000 
     for Dushanbe, Tajikistan. The amount provided above the 
     request reflects adjusted Department estimates for the Kabul 
     project, as described in the Senate report. The conferees 
     direct the Department to submit bimonthly reports on the 
     planned and actual obligation and expenditure of this funding 
     through completion of the projects. In addition the conferees 
     direct that the bimonthly reports on the Kabul, Afghanistan, 
     facility contain detailed information, including cost 
     estimates, on compound security.
       The conferees also direct the Department to submit a report 
     on, and justification of, proposed staffing levels at both 
     posts before the obligation of funds, as described in the 
     House report. The conferees intend that the amount provided 
     for facilities in Kabul will support the collocation of all 
     agencies at post on a secure compound.


           emergencies in the diplomatic and consular service

       The conference agreement does not include additional 
     funding requested under this account. The conferees direct 
     the Department to use available funding in this account for 
     the purposes described in the request.

              International Organizations and Conferences


              contributions to international organizations

       The conference agreement includes $7,000,000 as an 
     emergency requirement for anticipated United Nations 
     assessments to support a United Nations mission in 
     Afghanistan.


        contributions for international peacekeeping activities

       The conference agreement includes $23,034,000 as an 
     emergency requirement for increased assessments for the 
     United Nations peacekeeping mission in the Democratic 
     Republic of the Congo (MONUC). The conference agreement 
     provides for estimated additional fiscal year 2002 
     assessments based on the current force level and does not 
     assume any increase or decrease to that level, nor any change 
     in the mandate of the mission. Should actual assessments for 
     MONUC exceed the increased funding level, the Department may 
     propose to reprogram funds from allocations for other 
     missions.

     emergency requirement for operational costs to continue 
     surrogate radio broadcasting by Radio Free Europe/Radio 
     Liberty to the people of Afghanistan in languages spoken in 
     Afghanistan. The Broadcasting Board of Governors (BBG) shall 
     provide the Committees on Appropriations quarterly status 
     reports on ongoing broadcasting initiatives in the Middle 
     East, Afghanistan and Africa, with the first such report due 
     no later than October 15, 2002. In addition, the conferees 
     expect the BBG to carry VOA Farsi and Radio Free Europe/Radio 
     Liberty's Radio Free Iraq broadcasts on the medium-wave 
     transmitter located in Kuwait until such time as alternative 
     AM transmission capabilities with equivalent power and reach 
     are in place. The conferees note that the BBG, to date, has 
     not submitted such an alternative proposal to the Committees 
     on Appropriations.

     requested sufficient resources for the Commission to 
     adequately protect investors from corporate abuses. In order

     that double the Administration's request. The conference 
     agreement includes $25,000,000 for 125 additional staff

     technology needs such as an integrated document management 
     system, automated analytical tools, and E-Filing. In

       The conferees have agreed to provide $672,000,000 over the 
     amounts requested by the President in order to address 
     existing shortfalls in military personnel funding, including 
     those associated with the mobilization of Guard and Reserve 
     personnel and other personnel-related costs including ``stop-
     loss''. In addition, based on more current execution data, 
     the conference agreement adjusts the budget request by 
     realigning an additional $128,000,000 to personnel 
     requirements from operational costs, bringing the total 
     provided for additional military personnel expenses to 
     $800,000,000.
       The conference agreement reallocates $201,000,000 from 
     funds requested for SOCOM logistical support to the military 
     services that the providing the support. The recommendation 
     also realigns $100,000,000 from the Defense Health Program to 
     other requirements based on the Department's reporting of 
     lower than expected expenditures for medical services 
     provided to reservists called to active duty.
       The conferees agree with funding directives in House of 
     Representatives Report 107-480 with respect to body armor; 
     Naval Air Station, North Island historical facility 
     renovation; NAIC Threat Representation and Validation 
     project; and Predator B flying hours. Further, the conferees 
     agree with the quarterly reporting requirements for Defense 
     Emergency Response Fund (DERF) obligations as directed by the 
     House, and with the Senate's directive that the Department of 
     Defense notify the Committees on Appropriations prior to 
     transferring DERF funds to appropriations accounts or for 
     purposes or amounts other that those specified in the table 
     above.


   Realignment of DERF Funds for Fiscal year 2002 Funding Shortfalls

       The Department of Defense has identified $500,000,000 
     previously made available to the Defense Emergency Response 
     Fund (in Public Laws 107-38 and 107-117) that are not being 
     obligated by the military services as quickly as originally 
     anticipated. The categories to which these funds had been 
     allocated are as follows:

                       [In thousands of dollars]

Increased situational awareness.................................153,823
Enhanced force protection.......................................161,150
Increased worldwide posture......................................49,407
Initial crisis response.........................................125,620
Airport and border security......................................10,000

       Given that funds previously made available to the DERF were 
     for near term, extraordinary costs of the war on terrorism 
     that would be obligated and expended quickly, it is clear 
     that these funds are for relatively lower priority 
     activities. In order to help offset the additional funding 
     for military personnel and other time-sensitive, 
     mobilization-related costs provided in the conference 
     agreement, the conferees recommend a general provision 
     (section 312) rescinding $224,000,000 of these funds. As for 
     funds which remain from those cited above, the conferees 
     direct that they be realigned to address additional fiscal 
     year 2002 military personnel and other high priority 
     operational and readiness funding requirements that will not 
     be fully covered by the funding in this measure. The 
     conference agreement includes authority for the Secretary of 
     Defense to make such transfers, 15 days after notification to 
     the congressional defense committees.


                              PROCUREMENT

       The conference agreement recommends $1,455,265,000 for 
     functions funded in title III, Procurement, of the Department 
     of Defense Appropriations Act, instead of $1,454,265,000 as 
     proposed by the House, and $1,429,800,000 as proposed by the 
     Senate, as follows:

                                            [In thousands of dollars]

               Crusader Next Generation Artillery System

       The conferees strongly oppose the process employed by the 
     Defense Department in proposing to terminate the Crusader 
     artillery system. The usual practice for making a policy 
     decision of this type would be for the Executive Branch to 
     propose it in the initial President's budget submission to 
     allow Congress sufficient time to hold hearings and fully 
     scrutinize its merits. This process was not followed in the 
     case of the Crusader. Instead, after requesting $475,609,000 
     in the fiscal year 2003 President's Budget, a budget 
     amendment was submitted on May 29, 2002 to immediately 
     terminate the Crusader program. This proposal gave the 
     Congress virtually no time to properly examine the merits of 
     the Administration's proposal.
       The conferees recognize that the proposed termination of 
     the Crusader system may present a higher degree of risk for 
     Army soldiers, given that the precision munitions and rocket 
     systems proposed as alternatives to the Crusader's 
     capabilities are unproven from technical, cost, and tactical 
     perspectives. However, the conferees have concluded that 
     since the Army has reported to the Congress on its plans to 
     exclude the Crusader from its Objective Force, and since the 
     Army has chosen to accelerate the fielding of the Future 
     Combat System to the 2008 timeframe, the justification for 
     the Crusader has diminished significantly.
       The Army's deficiency in heavy artillery capability cannot 
     continue to be deferred irrespective of the development of 
     precision guided munitions. The gap left by the termination 
     of the Crusader artillery system must be filled.
       The conferees believe it is imperative that the Army 
     accelerate its plan to develop a next generation artillery 
     cannon for the Objective Force to take full advantage of the 
     $2 billion investment in state-of-the-art artillery 
     technology developed under the Crusader program. The 
     conferees direct the Army to enter into a follow-on contract 
     immediately to leverage Crusader technology to the maximum 
     degree possible in order to develop and field a next 
     generation Non-Line of Sight (NLOS) Cannon artillery system 
     in the 2008 timeframe.
       Finally, the conferees direct the Army to carefully review 
     its requirements for this Objective Force NLOS Cannon 
     artillery system to ensure that the desire for high mobility 
     and speed of deployment is properly balanced against future 
     needs of lethality and combat overmatch.


                   Undersea Warfare Support Equipment

       The conferees direct that of the funds provided in the 
     fiscal year 2002 Defense Appropriations Act under ``Research, 
     Development, Test and Evaluation, Navy'' for Fleet 
     Telecommunications (tactical), $2,000,000 shall be 
     reallocated as follows: $1,000,000 shall be transferred to 
     ``Other Procurement, Navy'' Undersea Warfare Support 
     Equipment only to procure new improvements to the AN/SLQ 25A 
     system and $1,000,000 shall be reprogrammed within 
     ``Research, Development, Test and Evaluation, Navy'' to 
     Surface Ship Torpedo Defense, to implement the following 
     revised funding profile for the Tripwire Torpedo Defense 
     program: $7,350,000 for onboard sensors and signal 
     processing, $400,000 for distributed engineering center, 
     $2,500,000 for anti-torpedo torpedo, $1,650,000 for 
     associated components, and $1,500,000 for winch redesign and 
     integration.


      Remote Chemical and Biological Agent Vapor Detection System

       The conferees agree with the House language concerning the 
     remote chemical and biological agent vapor detection system 
     and recommend $15,000,000 for this purpose.


                          Classified Programs

       The recommendations of the conferees regarding classified 
     programs are summarized in a classified annex accompanying 
     this statement.

                    GENERAL PROVISIONS--THIS CHAPTER

       The conferees agree to retain section 301, as proposed by 
     the House and Senate, which permits funds in ``Research, 
     Development, Test and Evaluation, Navy'' be used for the 
     Special Operations Forces requirements related to the V-22 
     aircraft.
       The conferees agree to delete language proposed by the 
     House concerning obligation of funds in the Defense 
     Cooperation Account to be transferred to other appropriations 
     accounts.
       The conferees agree to retain section 302, as proposed by 
     the Senate, and delete language as proposed by the House, 
     which allows the Defense Department to continue to provide 
     assistance to Russia and the Former Soviet Union states 
     provided the President certifies that it is important to the 
     national security interests of the United States.
       The conferees agree to delete language as proposed by the 
     Senate which authorizes the use of funds for military 
     construction projects.

     Senate which permits the Secretary of Defense to waive 
     current restrictions on the establishment of a field 
     operating agency.
       The conferees agree to retain section 303, as proposed by 
     the House and Senate concerning funds for intelligence 
     related programs.

       The conferees agree to delete language as proposed by the 
     House providing $93,000,000 to acquire three MH-47 
     helicopters for the Special Operations Command. The conferees 
     do not agree to include this provision because the 
     specific airframes that were to be procured through this 
     effort are no longer available. However, the conferees 
     concur with the direction provided in House Report 107-480 
     requiring the Secretary of Defense to provide a report to 
     the defense committees not later than 30 days after 
     enactment of this act outlining the Department's plans to 
     acquire additional MH-47 helicopters to meet

[[Page H4971]]

     urgent mission requirements of the Special Operations 
     Command.
       The conferees agree to retain and amend section 306, as

     purpose of accelerating chemical agent destruction at 
     Department of Defense facilities in Aberdeen, Maryland; 
     Newport, Indiana; and Pine Bluff, Arkansas.
       The Conferees agree to retain and amend section 307, as

     $59,000,000. The specific programs and the amounts rescinded 
     are as follows:

                                                          (Rescissions)

     proposed by the House which states that section 2533a of 
     title 10 does not apply to transactions entered into under 
     section 8159 of Public Law 107-117.
       The conferees agree to delete language as proposed by the 
     House which provides authority for the Secretary of Defense

     military support provided to the United States military in 
     connection with the war on terrorism.
       The conferees agree to retain section 309, as proposed by 
     the Senate which provides direction on the execution of 
     $2,000,000 provided for procurement of smokeless 
     nitrocellulose.
       The conferees agree to retain section 310, as proposed by 
     the Senate supporting the conversion of the Naval Security 
     Group, Winter Harbor, Maine.
       The conferees agree to retain section 311, as proposed by 
     the Senate which directs that $2,200,000 in ``Operation and 
     Maintenance, Army National Guard'' be used for information 
     operations, information assurance operations and related 
     training.
       The conferees agree to include a new general provision, 
     section 312, which rescinds $224,000,000 from funds 
     previously made available in the Defense Emergency Response 
     Fund.
       The conferees agree to include a new general provision, 
     section 313, which rescinds $226,000,000 from fiscal year

     assumptions regarding inflation.

                               CHAPTER 4

                          District of Columbia


                             federal funds

       The conferees recognize that security in the nation's 
     capital is the combination of efforts by local and Federal 
     government agencies and regional authorities, providing 
     transportation, public works, and other services. A high 
     degree of coordination among these entities is required to 
     enhance and maintain security. In addition, the investments 
     made in this region to address critical infrastructure must 
     also be coordinated. The conferees encourage the 
     Administration to assess the needs of the national capital 
     region, set funding priorities, and make recommendations 
     through the President's fiscal year 2004 budget, and, if 
     necessary, through any supplemental budget requests.


       federal payment to the children's national medical center

       The conferees provide a Federal payment of $10,000,000 to 
     the Children's National Medical Center instead of $13,770,000 
     as proposed by the Senate. The House bill contained no 
     similar provision. Included in this amount is $8,000,000 for 
     the expansion of quarantine facilities and $2,000,000 for the 
     construction of a decontamination facility for children and 
     families.


              federal payment to the district of columbia

       The conferees provide a Federal payment of $23,000,000 to 
     the District of Columbia to implement the District Emergency 
     Operations Plan instead of $24,730,000 as proposed by the 
     Senate. The House bill contained no similar provision. 
     Included in this amount is $12,000,000 to reimburse the 
     District for overtime expenses related to providing security 
     at events associated with Federal government activities. Also 
     included in this amount is $5,000,000 for the Unified 
     Communications Center and $6,000,000 for construction of 
     containment facilities and other activities to support the 
     regional Bioterrorism Hospital Preparedness Program at the 
     Washington Hospital Center.


 federal payment to the washington metropolitan area transit authority

       The conferees provide a Federal payment of $8,000,000 to 
     the Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority instead of 
     $25,000,000 as proposed by the Senate. The House bill 
     contained no similar provision. This funding is to contribute 
     to the creation of a regional transportation back-up 
     operations control center. Funding of this center is 
     primarily a regional responsibility; therefore the conferees 
     direct the General Manager of the Washington Metropolitan 
     Area Transit Authority to submit by February 5, 2003 a plan 
     for how this project will be financed. If it is determined 
     that sufficient local funds cannot be dedicated to this 
     project, the General Manager shall submit a plan that details 
     how the agency proposes to expend the funds provided in this 
     Act. The conferees do not intend to provide additional 
     Federal funding for this project.
       The conferees note that a number of the largest mass 
     transit systems around the country have modified their 
     vending systems to both accept and dispense the Sacajawea 
     ``Golden Dollar'' coins. This is a coin which was created by 
     an Act of Congress and which depicts an important Native 
     American woman from American history. Regrettably, many mass 
     transit systems around the country, including in the Nation's 
     Capital, have declined to modify their vending systems to 
     make use of the coin. These transit systems have thus far 
     missed a chance to educate the millions of Americans who 
     annually use transit systems about both the Golden Dollar 
     coin as well as this important American. As we approach the 
     bicentennial celebration of Lewis and Clark's ``Corps of 
     Discovery,'' the conferees direct the Washington Metropolitan 
     Area Transit Authority to report the Committees on 
     Appropriations of the House of Representatives and Senate by 
     February 1, 2003 on its efforts to make its vending machines 
     ``Golden Dollar'' capable.

     System as approved by the Council.

       The conferees provide a Federal payment of $1,250,000 to 
     the Water and Sewer Authority of the District of Columbia 
     instead of $3,000,000 as proposed by the Senate. The House 
     bill contained no similar provision. This funding is for 
     remote monitoring of water quality, including the ability to 
     identify biological or chemical agents.

     the Mayor of the District of Columbia. The House and Senate 
     bills contained no similar provision.
       From rescinded funds referenced in the paragraph above, the 
     conferees provide a Federal payment of $700,000 to the Mayor 
     of the District of Columbia Family Court Act. These funds are 
     available for the same purposes and subject to the same 
     reporting and availability requirements that were identified 
     under this heading in the District of Columbia Appropriations 
     Act, 2002. The House and Senate bills contained no similar 
     provision.

     funds provided to the Office of the Corporation Counsel to be 
     used to support attorney compensation consistent with 
     performance measures contained in a negotiated collective 
     bargaining agreement.


                       public safety and justice

       The conferees rescind $37,000,000 of the Charter School 
     surplus as proposed by both the House and the Senate. This 
     surplus resulted from a lower than projected student 
     enrollment.


                         Human Support Services

       From funds rescinded under the public education system, the 
     conferees provide $11,000,000 for the Child and Family

       Sec. 401. Use of Emergency Supplemental Funds for 
     Administrative Costs. The conferees include a provision as 
     proposed by both the House and the Senate that allows the 
     District of Columbia to use up to 1 percent of the funds 
     appropriated to the District of Columbia under the Department 
     of Defense and Emergency Supplemental Appropriations for 
     Recovery from and Response to Terrorist Attacks on the United 
     States Act, 2002 (Public Law 107-117) to fund the 
     administrative costs that are needed to fulfill the purposes 
     of that Act.
       Sec. 402. Crime Victims Compensation Fund. The conferees 
     include a provision as proposed by both the House and the 
     Senate that amends language contained in the District of 
     Columbia Appropriations Act, 2002 to clarify that the D.C. 
     Courts are allowed to transfer 50 percent of the fund balance 
     from the Crime Victims Compensation Fund to the District's 
     newly established Crime Victims Fund for outreach activities.
       The Mayor of the District of Columbia shall expend these 
     funds in accordance with the plan to provide crime victims 
     assistance, required in Section 403 of the Consolidated 
     Appropriations Act (P.L. 106-554; 114 Stat. 2763A-188) and 
     submitted to Congress on September 21, 2001. In addition, the 
     Chief Financial Officer of the District of Columbia shall 
     certify expenditures of these funds in accordance with the 
     requirements set forth in the fiscal year 2002 District of 
     Columbia Appropriations Act Conference Report (House Report 
     107-321).
       Sec. 403. Reserve Fund. The conferees include a provision 
     as proposed by both the House and the Senate that allows any 
     funds not required to meet the seven percent cash reserve 
     balance to be used to address potential deficits in addition 
     to Pay-As-You-Go Capital Funds.
       Sec. 404. Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority. 
     The conferees include a provision as proposed by the Senate 
     that allows the Washington Metropolitan Area Transit 
     Authority to reprogram up to $2,400,000 from funds 
     appropriated under Public Law 107-117 for protective clothing 
     and breathing apparatus activities to employee and facility 
     security and completion of the fiber optic network project. 
     The House bill contained no similar provision.
       Sec. 405. Transfer Authority for the District of Columbia 
     Courts. The conferees modify a provision proposed by the 
     Senate to allow the District of Columbia Courts to expend up 
     to $3,000,000 to carry out the District of Columbia Family 
     Court Act of 2001. The provision also allows the Family Court 
     Act funds to be used to reimburse the D.C. Courts for these 
     expenditures now that the Family Court Act funds have become 
     available. The House bill contained no similar provision.
       Sec. 406. Technical Correction to the District of Columbia 
     Family Court Act of 2001. The conferees include a provision 
     as proposed by the Senate that makes a technical correction 
     to the District of Columbia Family Court Act of 2001 related 
     to residency requirements of Family Court Act judges. The 
     House bill contained no similar provision.
       Sec. 407. Technical Corrections to the District of Columbia 
     Appropriations Act of 2002. The conferees include a provision 
     as proposed by the Senate that makes two technical 
     corrections in the District of Columbia Appropriations Act, 
     2002 (Public Law 107-96). The House bill contained no similar 
     provision.
       Sec. 408. Administrative Provision. The conferees modify a 
     provision proposed by both the House and the Senate that 
     amends language contained in the District of Columbia 
     Appropriations Act, 2002 (Public Law 107-96) to allow grants 
     to be accepted after 14 calendar days of receipt by the 
     Council of the District of Columbia (barring no written 
     notice of disapproval by a Council member) instead of 
     requiring the Council to pass a law to approve every grant 
     notification submitted for approval. The provision also 
     allows the District to expend other funds if the Chief 
     Financial Officer certifies that the funds are available and 
     are not required to address potential deficits and with prior 
     notification to the Committees on Appropriations of the House 
     of Representatives and Senate of the acceptance, obligation, 
     and expenditure of such funds.
       Sec. 409. Chief Financial Officer. The conferees modify a 
     provision proposed by the Senate that extends the Chief 
     Financial Officer's personnel, procurement, and preparation 
     of fiscal impact statement authorities from June 30, 2002 
     through July 1, 2003. The House bill contained no similar 
     provision.
       Insurance Procurement. The conferees do not include a 
     provision as proposed by the Senate to allow the government 
     of the District of Columbia to procure insurance for property 
     damage and tort liability. The House bill contained no 
     similar provision. The District of Columbia received a 
     favorable decision from the General Accounting Office on June 
     3, 2002 regarding the purchase of commercial insurance 
     against catastrophic risks; therefore this language is no 
     longer needed.

                           Weapons Activities

                         (Including Rescission)

       The conference agreement provides $158,050,000 for Weapons

     safeguards and security be used only for its stated purpose 
     and not as an indirect source for other site services or 
     activities, especially those unrelated to safeguards and 
     security.
       Funding of $19,400,000 has been designated by the President 
     as an emergency requirement. The availability of the 
     remaining $138,650,000 is contingent upon receipt of a

[[Page H4973]]

     budget request from the President designating the funds as an

     $14,460,000 of funds appropriated to the National Nuclear 
     Security Administration (not including the nuclear 
     nonproliferation and naval reactors programs) in Public Law 
     107-66 and prior Energy and Water Development Appropriations 
     Acts.


                    defense nuclear nonproliferation

       The conference agreement includes $100,000,000 for Defense 
     Nuclear Nonproliferation as proposed by the Senate instead of 
     $5,000,000 as proposed by the House. The funds are available

       Funding of $35,000,000 is provided for nonproliferation and 
     verification and development to develop sensors and other 
     technologies to prevent nuclear and other deadly materials 
     from entering this country, detect these substances elsewhere 
     in the nation, and enhance preparedness in the event of an 
     attack. Of these funds, not less than $20,000,000 is provided 
     to accelerate and expand the nuclear and radiological 
     national security program.
       Funding of $30,000,000 is provided for the International 
     Materials Protection, Control and Accounting program to plan 
     and initiate nuclear materials protection and control 
     activities in countries other than the former Soviet Union 
     and to accelerate current programs in Russia.
       Funding of $15,000,000 is provided for the Arms Control 
     program. Of this amount, $6,000,000 is to implement the U.S.-
     DPRK Agreed Framework; $4,000,000 is for additional 
     International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) safeguards and 
     nonproliferation support for specific countries under 
     safeguards; and $5,000,000 is for nuclear materials security 
     programs in IAEA member countries.
       Elimination of Weapons-Grade Plutonium Production.--Funding

     Elimination of Weapons-Grade Plutonium Production in Russia 
     program to the Department of Energy from the Department of 
     Defense by the Administration for fiscal year 2003. The total 
     estimated cost of this program is almost $500,000,000, and 
     the current completion date of 2006 may be difficult to 
     achieve.
       The conferees note that this is a very complicated program 
     to implement, involving substantial contributions by and 
     coordination with the Russian Government. Accordingly, the 
     conferees direct the Administrator of NNSA to require the 
     application of the Department's established directives or 
     project management, to include acquisition planning, 
     alternative analysis, and critical decision approvals of 
     these products at the level prescribed by the Department's 
     directives, before expenditure of funds appropriated for this 
     program can begin.
       The conferees are aware that the Department allowed its 
     contractor to initiate program activities in advance of 
     receiving funds for this program. None of the funds provided 
     in this Act may be used to repay expenses incurred by the 
     Department or its contractors for activities conducted prior 
     to enactment of this Act.
       Return of Domestic Sealed Sources.--The conference 
     agreement provides $10,000,000 to accelerate the recovery of 
     excess radioactive materials in the United States through the 
     Department's Offsite Source Recovery program. With this 
     funding, it should be possible to compress the recovery 
     schedule to 18 months for over 5000 excess sealed sources. 
     The conferees direct the Secretary to submit to the House and 
     Senate Committees on Appropriations by October 31, 2002, a 
     program plan detailing the activities, with costs, schedules 
     and deliverables, to be accomplished in this program.

                      Office of the Administrator

       The conference agreement provides $1,750,000 for the Office 
     of the Administrator as proposed by the Senate instead of no 
     funding as proposed by the House. The funds are available for 
     obligation through September 30, 2002.
       The availability of these funds is contingent upon receipt 
     request from the President designating the funds as an 
     emergency requirement pursuant to the Balanced Budget and 
     Emergency Deficit Control Act of 1985.

     Site in South Carolina, the Hanford site in Richland, 
     Washington; the Idaho site; and the Oak Ridge site in 
     Tennessee.
       The availability of these funds is contingent upon receipt 
     of a budget request from the President designating funds as 
     an emergency requirement pursuant to the Balanced Budget and

       The conference agreement provides $14,000,000 for Defense 
     Facilities Closure Projects to enhance safeguards and

     Emergency Deficit Control Act of 1985.


                        other defense activities

       The conference agreement provides $7,000,000 for Other 
     Defense Activities for critical energy security and assurance 
     activities as proposed by the House and the Senate and the 
     same as the budget request. These funds are available for 
     obligation through September 30, 2002.
       The entire amount has been designated by the President as 
     an emergency requirement pursuant to the Balanced Budget and 
     Emergency Deficit Control Act of 1985.

                    General Provisions--This Chapter

       Sec. 501. The conference agreement includes a provision 
     proposed by the Senate regarding a biomass project in Winona, 
     Mississippi.
       Sec. 502. The conference agreement includes a provision 
     proposed by the Senate requiring the Secretary of Energy to 
     award a contract for two depleted uranium hexafluoride 
     facilities.
       Provisions not adopted.--The conference recommendation 
     modifies a provision proposed by the Senate to rescind 
     $30,000,000 from various Department of Energy accounts. The 
     conference agreement provides alternative funding sources for 
     this rescission.
       The conference recommendation does not include a provision 
     proposed by the Senate providing $3,000,000 for the Bureau of 
     Reclamation to drill five wells in New Mexico. Funding for 
     this activity has been included in the Bureau of Reclamation, 
     Water and Related Resources appropriation account.

                               CHAPTER 6


                      reporting and notifications

       The managers direct the Administration to submit a 
     financial plan to the Committees on Appropriations regarding 
     the use of funds appropriated in this chapter within 30 days 
     of the enactment of this Act. Further, the managers direct 
     the Department of State and the United States Agency for 
     International Development to implement programs, projects and 
     activities recommended in this chapter consistent with the 
     budget justification material submitted to the Congress, as 
     modified by the conference agreement. Any proposed changes in 
     funding for programs, projects, and activities shall be 
     reported to the Committees on Appropriations in conformance 
     with regular notification procedures.


                         emergency designations

       The conference agreement includes an emergency designation 
     pursuant to the Balanced Budget and Emergency Deficit Control 
     Act of 1985, as amended, for each of the appropriations 
     paragraphs recommended in this chapter. Appropriations that 
     exceed the President's request include a requirement for an 
     emergency designation by the President for the amount of the 
     appropriation that differs from the request. The requirement 
     for a Presidential designation of emergency spending applies 
     to all funds appropriated under headings for which there is 
     no official budget request.

                     BILATERAL ECONOMIC ASSISTANCE

                  Funds Appropriated to the President

           United States Agency for International Development


                child survival and health programs fund

       The conference agreement appropriates, subject to the 
     regular notification procedures of the Committee on 
     Appropriations, $200,000,000 to remain available until June 
     30, 2003, for emergency expenses for activities related to 
     combating AIDS, tuberculosis, and malaria. Additional 
     assistance to be provided for mother-to-child transmission of 
     HIV/AIDS and for maternal health and other assistance to 
     communities significantly affected by HIV/AIDS.
       The conference agreement provides that not less than 
     $100,000,000 under this heading in this Act should be made 
     available for the Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis, 
     and Malaria (Global Fund). Language similar to the House bill 
     also provides that the cumulative amount of funds made 
     available in this or prior Acts under this heading and under 
     the heading ``Child Survival and Disease Programs Fund'' for 
     the Global Fund may not exceed the total resources provided 
     by all donors to the Global Fund for calendar year 2002.
       In addition, the entire amount is designated by the 
     Congress as an emergency requirement pursuant to section 
     251(b)(2)(A) of the Balanced Budget and Emergency Deficit 
     Control Act of 1985, as amended, and shall be

[[Page H4974]]

     available only to the extent an official budget request that 
     includes designations of the entire amount of the request as 
     an emergency requirement as defined in said Act is 
     transmitted by the President to the Congress.


                   international disaster assistance

       The conference agreement appropriates $184,000,000, instead 
     of $190,000,000 as proposed by the House and $150,000,000 as 
     proposed by the Senate. These funds include up to 
     $134,000,000 for activities in Afghanistan, including repairs 
     of houses damaged during military operations, and $50,000,000 
     for activities in the West Bank and Gaza. Funds are available 
     for obligation until September 30l 2003, as proposed by the 
     House instead of March 31, 2003, as proposed by the Senate.
       The managers note that while the situation of women in 
     Afghanistan has improved since the Taliban era, serious 
     obstacles, including illiteracy, joblessness, violence 
     against women, lack of access to health care, and lack of 
     clearly defined rights continue to hinder the progress of 
     Afghan women. The managers understand the difficulties 
     inherent in implementing assistance programs in Afghanistan 
     but are nonetheless concerned about the slow pace and 
     relatively small amount of assistance devoted specifically to 
     improving the lives and opportunities of Afghan women. The 
     Afghan Ministry of Women's Affairs is uniquely positioned to 
     become the primary center of capacity to carry out women-
     focused development in Afghanistan, and the managers commend 
     USAID for the support it has given to the Ministry thus far. 
     The managers strongly recommend that not less than $2,500,000 
     from this account be provided to enable the Ministry to 
     establish multi-service women's centers throughout 
     Afghanistan for the purpose of implementing programs to 
     improve women's and girl's health and expand economic 
     opportunities through vocational and literacy training.
       The conference agreement includes $50,000,000 for 
     humanitarian assistance for the West Bank and Gaza, which 
     must be designated by the President as emergency spending. 
     The House bill and the Senate amendment included similar 
     provisions, except that the House bill would have 
     appropriated these funds under ``Economic Support Fund'' and 
     transferred them to ``International Disaster Assistance''. In 
     addition, the conference agreement includes language that 
     prohibits the obligation or expenditure of funds to the 
     Palestinian Authority. The managers direct that all funds 
     appropriated under this heading in the Act for the West 
     Bank and Gaza shall be made available for humanitarian 
     assistance only through nongovernmental organizations.


   operating expenses of the united states agency for international 
                              development

       The conference agreement appropriates $7,000,000 as 
     proposed by the House instead of $5,000,000 as proposed by 
     the Senate. These funds would be used to implement programs 
     recommended elsewhere in this chapter, and for security costs 
     in Afghanistan and Pakistan.
       An additional $6,000,000 for operating expenses is 
     available by transfer from funds appropriated under the 
     heading ``Child Survival and Health Programs Fund'' for the 
     management and oversight of programs funded under this 
     heading in this Act and in P.L. 107-115.
       The managers are concerned that insufficient consideration 
     has been given to the provision of interim secure housing and 
     office facilities for the staff who will manage programs in 
     Afghanistan that are funded in this and prior appropriations 
     Acts. Not less than five days prior to the transmittal of the 
     report on Afghanistan security required under section 603 of 
     the Act, the Under Secretary of State for Management and the 
     Administrator of the United States Agency for International 
     Development are to consult with the Committees regarding the 
     Department's plans for interim and permanent facilities for 
     United States personnel in Kabul, Afghanistan.

                  OTHER BILATERAL ECONOMIC ASSISTANCE


                         economic support fund

       The conference agreement appropriates $665,000,000 instead 
     of $660,000,000 as proposed by the House and $700,000,000 as 
     proposed by the Senate. (The House bill included a total of 
     $710,000,000 in this account, but $50,000,000 of those funds 
     were proposed for transfer to ``International Disaster 
     Assistance'' for the West Bank and Gaza. This issue is 
     addressed under ``International Disaster Assistance''.) Funds 
     may remain available for obligation until June 30, 2003.
       The conference agreement does not include language in the 
     Senate amendment that would have provided that $50,000,000 
     should be made available for the Middle East Economic 
     Initiative (MEEI). The House bill did not address this 
     matter. The managers agree the initiative should receive an 
     allocation of not to exceed $25,000,000. Funding priorities 
     should include education, commercial law reform, trade 
     technical assistance, and civil society and rule of law 
     programs. Within the funds made available for the MEEI, the 
     managers strongly support the funding of additional 
     scholarships for foreign students at American educational 
     institutions in the Middle East, including scholarships for 
     students from central Asia.
       The conference agreement includes $200,000,000 for anti-
     terrorism assistance for Israel as proposed by the House and 
     Senate, which must be designated by the President as 
     emergency spending. It also includes language proposed by the 
     Senate that would authorize the transfer of all or a portion 
     of these funds to ``Nonproliferation, Anti-Terrorism, 
     Demining and Related Programs'' for defensive, non-lethal 
     anti-terrorism assistance. The managers strongly support the 
     expeditious programming of these funds in order to assist the 
     State of Israel in its response to international terrorism.
       The conference agreement includes language similar to that 
     in the Senate amendment that would require that the 
     Committees on Appropriations be informed 15 days prior to the 
     obligation of funds provided under this heading in this Act. 
     The House bill did not address this matter.
       The conference agreement does not include Senate language 
     providing $3,500,000 for programs and activities that provide 
     professional training for journalists from the Middle East. 
     The House bill did not address this matter. The managers 
     recognize the importance of such programs and encourage the 
     United States Agency for International Development and the 
     Department of State to provide up to $1,000,000 for such 
     activities.
       The conference agreement provides that $10,000,000 under 
     this heading should be made available for the establishment 
     of a pilot academic year international youth exchange program 
     for secondary school students from countries with significant 
     Muslim populations, modeled after the Future Leaders Exchange 
     involving students from the former Soviet republics. The 
     Senate amendment had earmarked $20,000,000 for this purpose. 
     The House bill did not address this matter.
       The conference agreement includes language that provides 
     that $1,000,000 should be provided for programs and 
     activities that support the development of independent media 
     in Pakistan. The Senate amendment would have mandated 
     $3,500,000 for such programs and activities. The House bill 
     did not address this matter.


    assistance for the independent states of the former soviet union

       The conference agreement provides that funds shall remain 
     available for obligation until June 30, 2003.
       The conference agreement does not include Senate language 
     not in the House bill that would have limited assistance to 
     certain specified countries.
       The conference agreement does not include Senate language 
     providing that not less than $7,000,000 shall be made 
     available for the development of democratic institutions and 
     the protection of human rights, which amount shall be 
     administered by the Bureau of Democracy, Human Rights, and 
     Labor, Department of State. However, it is the manager's 
     understanding based on information provided by the 
     Coordinator of Assistance to Europe and Eurasia that not less 
     than $10,000,000 will be made available for democracy and 
     human rights programs in Central Asia. The managers expect 
     that within 30 days of enactment of this Act, the Coordinator 
     will provide the Committees on Appropriations with a 
     comprehensive report on the democracy and human rights 
     programs and activities to be conducted in Central Asia with 
     funds appropriated by this Act, including a schedule for the 
     obligation and disbursement of funds.
       The managers commend USAID's Central Asia mission for its 
     focus on economic growth, education, and health in Central 
     Asia, and expect that a significant amount of the additional 
     resources provided in this Act will be allocated to these 
     sectors. Because of the special needs in the region, emphasis 
     should be placed on microcredit and clean water programs.
       The conference agreement includes language similar to that 
     in the Senate amendment that would require that the 
     Committees on Appropriations be informed 15 days prior to the 
     obligation of funds provided under this heading in this Act. 
     The House bill did not address this matter.

                          DEPARTMENT OF STATE

          International Narcotics Control and Law Enforcement

       The conference agreement appropriates $117,000,000 instead 
     of $120,000,000 as proposed by the House and $104,000,000 as 
     proposed by the Senate. These funds would remain available 
     for obligation until September 30, 2003, as proposed by the 
     House instead of March 31, 2003, as proposed by the Senate.
       The conference agreement provides that funds appropriated 
     under the heading ``International Narcotics Control and Law 
     Enforcement'' should be made available to train and equip a 
     Colombian Armed Forces unit dedicated to apprehending the 
     leaders of paramilitary organizations. The language differs 
     slightly from that included in the Senate amendment, which 
     was included under the heading ``Foreign Military 
     Financing''. The House bill did not address this matter.
       The conference agreement does not include Senate language 
     providing $2,500,000 for training, equipment, and other 
     assistance for park rangers for the Colombian National Park 
     Service. However, the managers are aware of Colombia's 
     extraordinary system of national parks and reserves and of 
     the grave threats to these areas posed by coca farmers, 
     illegal loggers, and armed conflict. The managers recognize 
     the substantial environmental and eco-tourism importance of 
     these parks and reserves. The managers intend to provide 
     assistance to the Colombia National Park Service to help 
     protect these areas with funding in fiscal year 2003 from the 
     Andean Counterdrug Initiative.

[[Page H4975]]

       The conference agreement includes language similar to that 
     in the Senate amendment that not to exceed $4,000,000 should 
     be available for police training in Indonesia. The House bill 
     did not address this matter.
       The conference agreement includes language similar to that 
     in the Senate amendment that would require that the 
     Committees on Appropriations be informed 15 days prior to the 
     obligation of funds provided under this heading in this Act. 
     The House bill did not address this matter.
       The conference agreement provides that $6,000,000 under 
     this heading may be made available for assistance for the 
     Colombian Armed Forces for purposes of protecting the Cano 
     Limon pipeline. The managers are aware that the majority of 
     people living in Arauca department, where the Cano Limon 
     pipeline is located, remain impoverished despite the 
     extraction of oil worth billions of dollars from that area. 
     The conference agreement provides that prior to the 
     obligation of funds for purposes of protecting the pipeline, 
     the Secretary of State shall submit a report describing oil 
     revenues by the Government of Colombia from the pipeline 
     during the preceding 12 months, amounts expended by the 
     government and private oil companies with a financial 
     interest in the pipeline for programs to improve the lives of 
     the people in Arauca, steps being taken to increase and 
     expand such programs, and mechanisms being established to 
     monitor such funds. The contents of the report will be 
     considered by the Committees on Appropriations in connection 
     with the fiscal year 2003 budget.


                    migration and refugee assistance

       The conference agreement appropriates $40,000,000 instead 
     of $10,000,000 as proposed by the House and $50,000,000 as 
     proposed by the Senate. The conference agreement provides 
     that funds shall remain available for obligation until June 
     30, 2003 instead of September 30, 2003 as proposed by the 
     House and March 31, 2003 as proposed by the Senate.
       The managers recognize the troubling situation facing many 
     internally displaced persons (IDPs) in Colombia. It is the 
     manager's understanding that the number of IDPs is 
     multiplying as the civilian population bears much of the 
     burden of the civil strife. Therefore the managers recommend 
     that of the funds appropriated under this heading or under 
     the heading ``International Narcotics Control and Law 
     Enforcement'' in this chapter, up to $10,000,000 may be made 
     available to the State Department for emergency IDP needs.
       The conference agreement does not include language in the 
     Senate amendment that would subject the funds to the regular 
     notification procedures of the Committees on Appropriations. 
     The House bill did not address this matter.


    NONPROLIFERATION, ANTI-TERRORISM, DEMINING, AND RELATED PROGRAMS

       The conference agreement appropriates $88,000,000 instead 
     of $83,000,000 as proposed by the House and $93,000,000 as 
     proposed by the Senate. These funds would remain available 
     for obligation until September 30, 2003, as proposed by the 
     House instead of March 31, 2003, as proposed by the Senate.
       The conference agreement includes language similar to that 
     in the Senate amendment that provides that not to exceed 
     $12,000,000 should be made available for assistance for 
     Indonesia. However, it does not include Senate language 
     relating to the purposes of the funds or language that would 
     have prohibited funds for assistance for members of 
     ``Brimob'' Mobile Police Brigade units. This language has not 
     been included since the Department of State has assured the 
     managers that no funds will be provided for assistance for 
     these units, or for Kopassus units of the Indonesian 
     military. The House bill did not address this matter.
       The conference agreement provides that up to $1,000,000 may 
     be made available for the Nonproliferation and Disarmament 
     Fund (NDF). The Senate amendment would have mandated this 
     level of funding. The House bill did not address this matter.
       The conference agreement provides that up to $1,000,000 may 
     be made available for small arms and light weapons 
     destruction in Afghanistan. The Senate amendment would have 
     mandated $2,000,000 for this activity. The House did not 
     address this matter.
       The conference agreement does not include Senate language 
     not in the House bill that would have required the allocation 
     of not less than $10,000,000 for humanitarian demining 
     activities. However, the managers strongly support 
     humanitarian demining and direct that not less than 
     $4,000,000 be allocated for these activities.
       The conference report includes Senate language requiring 
     that funds provided under this heading in this Act shall be 
     subject to the regular notification procedures of the 
     Committee on Appropriations. The House bill did not address 
     this matter.
       The managers request that prior to the obligation of funds 
     for Antiterrorism Assistance Mobile Emergency Training Teams, 
     the Department of State inform the Committees on 
     Appropriations of the amount of such funds that would be made 
     available for administrative costs. In addition, the managers 
     request a report from the Department of State within 60 days 
     of enactment of this Act on the degree to which the Terrorist 
     Interdiction Program (TIP) cooperates with other agencies of 
     the United States Government to ensure there is no 
     duplication of effort. The report should specify the current 
     and projected resource levels for programs in all agencies 
     that have complementary programs. A classified annex to the 
     report should be provided if deemed necessary.

                          MILITARY ASSISTANCE

                  Funds Appropriated to the President


                   foreign military financing program

       The conference agreement appropriates $387,000,000 instead 
     of $366,500,000 as proposed by the House and $347,500,000 as 
     proposed by the Senate. Funds may remain available for 
     obligation until June 30, 2003. In addition, the conference 
     agreement includes House language to provide the Department 
     of Defense with the authority to use $2,000,000 requested by 
     the President for the general costs of administering overseas 
     military assistance programs. The Senate amendment did not 
     address this matter.
       The managers direct that a total of $55,000,000 shall be 
     made available for assistance for the Philippines, an 
     increase of $30,000,000 above the budget request. The 
     increase must be designated by the President as an emergency.
       The conference agreement does not include Senate language 
     not in the House bill that would have limited assistance to 
     certain specified countries.
       The conference agreement includes language similar to that 
     in the Senate amendment that would require that the 
     Committees on Appropriations be informed 15 days prior to the 
     obligation of funds provided under this heading in this Act. 
     The House bill did not address this matter.
       The conference agreement does not include Senate language 
     exempting only Afghanistan from the provisions of section 512 
     of the Foreign Assistance Act or any similar provision of 
     law. All funds appropriated under this heading would be 
     exempt from this provision of law, as proposed by the House.
       The conference agreement includes language similar to that 
     in the Senate amendment that provides that funds in this Act 
     may be made available for the Government of Uzbekistan if the 
     Secretary of State determines and reports to the Committees 
     on Appropriations that the Government of Uzbekistan is making 
     substantial and continuing progress in meeting its 
     commitments under the ``Declaration on the Strategic 
     Partnership and Cooperation Framework Between the Republic of 
     Uzbekistan and the United States of America''. The House did 
     not address this matter.
       Funds requested for assistance for Colombia for protection 
     of the Cano Limon pipeline are included under the heading 
     ``International Narcotics Control and Law Enforcement''.


                        peacekeeping operations

       The conference agreement provides that funds appropriated 
     under this heading may be available for obligation until June 
     30, 2003. In addition, the conference agreement includes 
     Senate language not in the House bill that limits the 
     assistance provided in this paragraph to Afghanistan.


                              rescissions

       The conference agreement includes a rescission of 
     $60,000,000 from funds appropriated to carry out the 
     provisions of parts I and II of the Foreign Assistance Act of 
     1961, the Support for East European Democracy (SEED) Act of 
     1989, and the FREEDOM Support Act, in title II of the Foreign 
     Operations, Export Financing, and Related Programs 
     Appropriations Act, 2000 (as contained in Public Law 106-113) 
     and in prior Acts making appropriations for foreign 
     operations, export financing, and related programs. Of these 
     funds, not more than a total of $25,000,000 may be rescinded 
     from funds appropriated under the heading ``Development 
     Assistance.'' In addition, no rescission may be made from 
     funds appropriated for health and disease programs pursuant 
     to section 104(c) of the Foreign Assistance Act of 1961. It 
     is the intention of the managers that no rescission be 
     derived from activities earmarked or subject to minimum 
     funding levels.
       The House bill would have rescinded $60,000,000 from funds 
     appropriated to ``Development Assistance'' and ``Economic 
     Support Fund''. The Senate bill would have rescinded 
     $25,000,000 from funds appropriated to ``Economic Support 
     Fund.'' This rescission was addressed in section 604 of the 
     Senate amendment.
       The conference agreement also contains Senate language 
     requiring a rescission of $50,000,000 from funds under the 
     heading ``Export-Import Bank of the United States'' that are 
     available for tied-aid grants. The House bill did not address 
     this matter. This rescission was addressed in section 604 of 
     the Senate amendment.
       The conference agreement also contains Senate language 
     requiring a rescission of unobligated balances totaling 
     $159,000,000 from certain funds available to International 
     Financial Institutions. The House bill contained the same 
     rescission, with certain technical differences.

                    GENERAL PROVISIONS--THIS CHAPTER

       Under section 601, the conference report includes language 
     that provides that fiscal year 2002 funds, unexpired 
     balances, and assistance provided from prior years' Acts 
     shall be available to support a unified campaign against 
     narcotics trafficking and designated terrorist organizations, 
     and to take actions to protect human health and welfare.
       The new authorities provided are intended to be used 
     against terrorist organizations identified by the State 
     Department. However, the managers recognize that in certain 
     emergency situation, such as kidnappings,

[[Page H4976]]

     the use of United States assets may be required to protect 
     human health and welfare before the affiliation of the 
     perpetrators has been determined. The managers expect this 
     authority will be continued in fiscal year 2003 unless the 
     new government of Colombia fails to make good faith efforts 
     to fulfill the commitments made in subsections (b) and (c). 
     The managers also intended these authorities to continue to 
     be in effect in the event a continuing resolution is 
     necessary for a portion of fiscal year 2003.
       The conference report requires the Secretary of State to 
     report that the newly elected President of Colombia has made 
     several commitments, in writing, regarding policies, 
     budgetary reforms, and the allocation of Colombian financial 
     resources. The managers expect the Secretary to provide 
     copies of these written commitments to the Committees on 
     Appropriations.
       Although section 603 of the House bill requiring a report 
     on Andean security strategy is not included in the conference 
     report, the managers are concerned that the Administration 
     has inadequately articulated clear objectives of U.S. policy 
     in Colombia, what actions would be required, and what it 
     would cost to achieve those objectives. Therefore, the 
     managers direct that within 90 days of enactment of this Act, 
     the Secretary of State, in consultation with the Secretary of 
     Defense, submit a report to the Committees on Appropriations, 
     describing in detail--(1) the President's policy toward 
     Colombia; the objectives of that policy; the actions required 
     by and the expected financial costs to the United States, 
     Colombia, and any other country or entity to achieve those 
     objectives; and the expected time schedule for achieving 
     those objectives; (2) specific benchmarks for measuring 
     progress toward achieving the objectives of the President's 
     policy; (3) the expected reduction, if any, in the amount of 
     cocaine and heroin entering the United States as a result of 
     the President's Andean Counterdrug Initiative within the 
     expected time schedule; and (4) the mission and objectives of 
     United States Armed Forces personnel and civilian contractors 
     employed by the United States in connection with such 
     assistance, and the threats to their safety in Colombia.
       Under section 603, the conference agreement includes a 
     general provision similar to section 606 of the Senate 
     amendment regarding Afghanistan security and the delivery of 
     assistance. The conference agreement requires the President 
     to transmit two reports, the first on immediate security 
     needs, and the second on long-term security needs.
       The conference agreement does not include Senate language 
     that would have earmarked $34,000,000 for the United Nations 
     Population Fund (UNFPA). The managers note that $34,000,000 
     was provided for this purpose in P.L. 107-115, and are 
     concerned that the funds have not yet been made available for 
     obligation. The managers note that a Presidential 
     determination regarding UNFPA activities in China, together 
     with the accompanying State Department report on its 
     investigation of those activities in China, has not been made 
     or transmitted to Congress, contrary to written assurances by 
     the Director of the Office of Management and Budget.

     conference agreement also rescinds $10,000,000 in excess 
     funds from the San Carlos Irrigation project as proposed by

                    GENERAL PROVISIONS, THIS CHAPTER

       Section 701 retains the text of House section 701 mandating 
     the release of previously appropriated emergency firefighting 
     funds to the Forest Service.
       Section 702 retains the text of House section 702 providing 
     that no funds, except funds appropriated to the Office of 
     Management and Budget, can be spend to study the transfer of 
     research functions from the Smithsonian Institution to the 
     National Science Foundation.
       Section 703 modifies the text of House section 703 dealing 
     with the collection and retention of fees at Midway Atoll 
     National Wildlife Refuge. The modification allows the 
     Secretary of the Interior to charge reasonable fees for 
     services provided at Midway Atoll National Wildlife Refuge, 
     including fuel sale, and retain those fees for operation and 
     maintenance of infrastructure and staff required for non-
     refuge specific needs, including, but not limited to, 
     activities and equipment required for airport operating 
     certification and the purchase of fuel. The Fish and Wildlife 
     Service currently has an airport operating certificate as 
     provided in 49 U.S.C. 44706. The Service should continue to 
     maintain certification and recoup costs from organizations 
     that directly benefit from airfield certification, as well as 
     charging fees for services. The Service also should establish 
     cooperative agreements to facilitate continued airfield 
     operations.
       Section 704 retains the text of Senate section 701 
     providing authority to the MMS to recover transportation and 
     administrative costs associated with filling the Strategic 
     Petroleum Reserve.
       Section 705 makes a technical modification to the text of 
     House section 704 dealing with reciprocal authority for 
     treatment of foreign and U.S. firefighters. The Senate 
     addressed this issue in section 702. The balance of Senate 
     section 702, dealing with the Black Hills National Forest, is 
     addressed in section 706.
       Section 706 replaces the text of Senate section 702 dealing 
     with the Black Hills National Forest. The managers have 
     agreed to bill language, which allows the Forest Service to 
     undertake actions to address promptly the risk of fire and 
     insect infestation in the Black Hills National Forest, SD. IN 
     addition, the language designates a small addition to the 
     existing lack Elk Wilderness area on the forest.
       The conference agreement does not include language proposed 
     by the House in section 705 prohibiting the Department of 
     Defense from being held responsible for civilian water 
     consumption that is outside the boundaries of a military 
     installation and beyond the direct authority and control of 
     the Secretary of Defense for purposes of the Endangered 
     Species Act.

                               CHAPTER 8

                          DEPARTMENT OF LABOR

                 Employment and Training Administration


                    training and employment services

       The conference agreement deletes funding provided in both 
     bills for Training and Employment Services. The House bill 
     had provided $300,000,000 and the Senate bill provided 
     $400,000,000. The conferees have decided

[[Page H4977]]

     that these funds should be considered during the regular 
     fiscal year 2003 appropriations process.
       The conferees understand that the Department is cutting its 
     support for capacity building efforts of national community 
     based organizations. The conferees urge the Department to 
     reconsider its support for these organizations in this fiscal 
     year. Heretofore, the Committee have provided considerable 
     latitude to the Department in the allocation of capacity 
     building funds. However, this may need to be reconsidered in 
     the fiscal year 2003 appropriations process.
       The conferees note that young adults, age 16 to 24 have 
     been disproportionately affected by the decline in total 
     employment over the past year. Therefore, the conferees 
     strongly urge that special attention be given to the 
     employment needs of young adult dislocated workers in 
     utilizing available funds for dislocated worker assistance.
       The conferees were pleased to learn from the Secretary that 
     the Administration has established an interagency effort to 
     address our nation's nursing shortage. The shortage is 
     especially critical in rural America and within various 
     ethnic minority populations. The Department is strongly urged 
     to work with nursing programs that work with these affected 
     populations and, in particular, to ensure that summer 
     employment opportunities exist for nursing students.
       The conferees concur with language contained in the Senate 
     report directing the Department to award a grant for the New 
     Mexico Telecommunications Call Center Training Consortium.

            COMMUNITY SERVICE EMPLOYMENT FOR OLDER AMERICANS

       The conferees direct the Department of Labor to implement 
     the grantee responsibility tests under Section 514(d) of the 
     Older Americans Act and to conduct a grant competition for 
     only those Title V funds administered by national grantees 
     that fail to be deemed responsible. The conferees further 
     direct the Department to implement corrective action, as set 
     forth in Section 514(e) of the Older Americans Act, for any 
     national grantee failing to meet established performance 
     measures. The conferees expect the Department to also 
     implement performance measures and competition for states as 
     authorized under Section 514(f) of the Act.

                  PENSION BENEFIT GUARANTY CORPORATION

       The conferees express deep concern regarding actions taken 
     by the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation (PBGC) on June 
     14, 2002 to terminate pension plans in advance of a plant 
     shutdown in order to avoid paying ``shutdown'' benefits that 
     had been negotiated between a company and its workers. This 
     policy shift was made without advance notice to the parties 
     involved. Furthermore, this policy adjustment is a 
     significant change in the practice that the PBGC had engaged 
     in over the past eight years. The action taken by the PBGC 
     will result in disparate treatment of workers in similar 
     situations, with workers in a plant that shutdown prior to 
     June 14, 2002 receiving ``shutdown'' benefit and workers in a 
     plant that shutdown after June 14, 2002 not receiving 
     ``shutdown'' benefits. The conferees strongly urge the PBGC 
     to reconsider its action to terminate several pension plans 
     on June 14, 2002.

             Occupational Safety and Health Administration


                         salaries and expenses

       The conference agreement includes a provision proposed by 
     the Senate to direct the allocation of funds within the funds 
     provided in Public Law 107-116 to extend funding for 
     Institutional Competency Building training grants for the 
     period September 30, 2002 through September 30, 2003, but 
     specifies not less than $3,200,000 for this purpose, instead 
     of $4,275,000 as proposed by the Senate. The House bill 
     contains no similar provisions. The conference agreement 
     deletes language proposed by the Senate to restore $1,000,000 
     for Institutional Competency Building training grants which 
     commenced in September 2000, for program activities ending 
     September 30, 2002. It also deletes, without prejudice, 
     language proposed by the Senate specifying that $5,900,000 be 
     used to extend funding for targeted training grants for the 
     period September 30, 2002 through September 30, 2003; this 
     bill language is no longer necessary, since the conferees 
     understand that the Labor Department intends to provide 
     second-year funding to all targeted training grants which 
     commenced in September 2001 for program activities for the 
     period of September 30, 2002 to September 30, 2003, 
     provided that a grantee has demonstrated satisfactory 
     performance.

                DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES

              Health Resources and Services Administration


                     Health Resources and Services

       The conference agreement includes bill language proposed by 
     both the House and Senate to revise the funding earmarked for 
     the construction and renovation of health care facilities 
     within the total funding previously appropriated for the 
     account, with one additional bill language provision that 
     changes the grantee for a $4,000,000 project within the 
     Maternal and Child Health grant program from Columbia 
     Hospital for Women Medical Center, Washington, D.C. to All 
     Children's Hospital, St. Petersburg, Florida.
       The conferees make the following modification to the report 
     language in the House and Senate bills. The funds available 
     in Public Law 107-116 to carry out Section 417C of the Public 
     Health Service Act (42 U.S.C. 285a-9) are to be used for 
     grants for education, prevention and early detection of 
     radiogenic cancers and diseases, of which $1,000,000 shall be 
     available to enter into a contract or cooperative agreement 
     with the National Research Council to conduct a study under 
     which the Council shall: (1) provide technical assistance to 
     the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) and 
     its grantees on improving accessibility and quality of 
     medical screening, education and referral services; (2) 
     report to HRSA on the most recent scientific information 
     related to radiation exposure and associated cancers or other 
     diseases, with recommendations for improving services for 
     exposed persons; and (3) review and make recommendations on 
     whether other classes of individuals or additional geographic 
     areas should be covered under the Radiation Exposure 
     Compensation Act (RECA) program. The Council shall provide 
     semi-annual interim reports to HRSA including technical 
     assistance provided, study findings, and recommendations. The 
     final report will be completed and presented by HRSA to 
     Congress by June 30, 2005.
       With respect to the $4,000,000 All Children's Hospital 
     provision, the conferees clarify that the project is to be 
     completed by September 30, 2005.

               Centers for Disease Control and Prevention


                 Disease Control, Research and Training

       The conference agreement provides $1,000,000 in 
     supplemental funds for the Centers for Disease Control and 
     Prevention. This is $314,000,000 below the amount provided by 
     the Senate and the same as provided by the House. Funds are 
     provided as a contingent emergency appropriation.
       The conference agreement includes $1,000,000 to accelerate 
     and expand work related to prion diseases, the same as 
     provided by the House. The Senate bill included no funds for 
     this purpose.
       The conferees concur in language included in the House 
     report concerning the inclusion of all relevant Centers in 
     the development and implementation of the health-tracking 
     network.

                     National Institutes of Health

                         Office of the Director

       The conferees endorse the report language included in the 
     House report recommending that the Director allocate up to 
     $500,000 from the funding provided in this account in Public 
     Law 107-116 for the Foundation for the National Institutes of 
     Health (NIH). The Senate report did not include similar 
     language.


                        Buildings and Facilities

                         (including rescission)

       The conference agreement includes a rescission of 
     $30,000,000, as proposed by the House and Senate, to be taken 
     from the two sources identified in the House and Senate 
     reports. The conference agreement also includes bill language 
     to clarify the original intent of the conferees to provide in 
     Public Law 107-116 $36,600,000 within this account for the 
     John Edward Porter Neuroscience Research Center, as requested 
     by the Administration in justification materials accompanying 
     the budget request. This funding would support both Phase I 
     of the project and the design of Phase II.
       The conference agreement does not include $72,000,000 in 
     emergency funding for NIH campus security enhancements as 
     proposed in the Senate bill. The House bill did not include a 
     similar provision.

               Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services


                           Program Management

       The conference agreement does not include the provision in 
     the Senate bill specifying $1,000,000 for the Johns Hopkins 
     School of Medicine for a study of chest oscillation therapy 
     for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. Neither the 
     Administration's request or the House bill included the 
     provision.
       The conferees agree to the House report language regarding 
     the Medicare appeals process established by the Benefits 
     Improvement and Protection Act of 2000 with the following 
     modification. The requested report should address the costs 
     of implementing the appeals process and the Department's 
     plans for that implementation.
       The conferees have been very pleased with the efforts of 
     CMS under its demonstration authority to address the 
     extraordinary adverse health status of Native Hawaiians in 
     Waimanalo, Hawaii. The conferees urge an additional focus 
     upon American Samoan residents in that geographical area 
     utilizing the expertise of the Waimanalo Health Center and 
     its Mauli Ola Program.

                Administration for Children and Families


                children and families services programs

       The conference agreement includes $500,000 for the domestic 
     violence hotline as proposed by the House. The Senate bill 
     contained no similar provision. These funds are provided on 
     an emergency contingent basis.

                        Office of the Secretary


            public health and social services emergency fund

       The Conference agreement includes $90,000,000 within the 
     Public Health and Social Services Emergency Fund for the CDC 
     to support the protection, monitoring and study of the health 
     of emergency services

[[Page H4978]]

     personnel and rescue and recovery personnel exposed to 
     environmental contaminants in the wake of the terrorist 
     attacks of September 11, 2001 at the World Trade Center in 
     New York City. This is the same amount as provided in the 
     Senate bill. The House bill included no similar provision. 
     These funds are provided on an emergency contingent basis.
       The Conferees concur in the guidance included in the Senate 
     report, with the further understanding that activities 
     undertaken are to include clinical examination and evaluation 
     as appropriate. The conferees request an implementation plan 
     to be provided to both Committees within six months of the 
     enactment of this Act, and annual reports thereafter on 
     accomplishments, funds obligated, funds expended, and 
     remaining balances.

                        DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION


                      school improvement programs

       The conference agreement includes language relating to the 
     expenditure of funds for digital programming in the Ready to 
     Teach program as proposed by the Senate. The House bill 
     contained no similar language.
       The conference agreement includes a technical correction 
     relating to the amounts of funding available for the Fund for 
     the Improvement of Education and the Cooperative Civic 
     Education program as proposed by both the House and the 
     Senate.
  The conference agreement also includes technical corrections to 
various projects.


                      student financial assistance

  The conference agreement includes $1,000,000,000 to help relieve a 
shortfall in the Pell grant program and provides that these funds shall 
be available until September 30, 2003, as proposed by the House. The 
Senate bill provided $1,000,000,000 for the same purpose but designated 
that amount as an emergency.


                            higher education

  The conference agreement includes technical corrections to various 
projects as proposed by the House and the Senate.


            educational research, statistics, and assessment

  The conference agreement includes a technical correction allowing the 
contract for the Eisenhower National Clearinghouse for Mathematics and 
Science Education to be continued for one additional year. The House 
bill contained no similar language.


                           general provisions

       Section 801. The conference agreement includes a permanent 
     change to section 8003 of the Elementary and Secondary 
     Education Act of 1965, as amended, that modifies the number 
     of students required in a portion of the payment formula for 
     heavily impacted districts as proposed by the Senate. The 
     House bill contained no similar provision.
       Section 802. The conference agreement includes a permanent 
     change to section 8003(b)(1) of the Elementary and Secondary 
     Education Act of 1965, as amended, that modifies the 
     provision on determining a school district's local 
     contribution rate as proposed by the Senate. The House bill 
     contained no similar provision.
       Section 803. The conference agreement includes the 
     $45,000,000 rescission in administrative and related expenses 
     in the Department of Labor, Health and Human Services, and 
     Education included in the Senate bill, amended to remove the 
     language requiring that the reduction be done on a pro-rata 
     basis. The House bill contained no similar provision. 
     Specific rescission amounts are to be determined and 
     distributed by the Office of Management and Budget. The 
     conferees direct the Office of Management and Budget to 
     distribute this administrative reduction in such a way that 
     reductions-in-force and furloughs of departmental personnel 
     do not occur.
       Section 804. The conferees have included bill language from 
     the Senate bill identifying the ``National Research Service 
     Awards'' program as the ``Ruth L. Kirschstein National 
     Research Service Awards'' program. This action is being taken 
     to honor the career of Dr. Ruth L. Kirschstein. A native of 
     Brooklyn, New York, Dr. Kirschstein received a B.A. degree 
     magna cum laude in 1947 from Long Island University. In 1951, 
     she received her M.D. from Tulane University School of 
     Medicine.
       From 1957 to 1972, Dr. Kirschstein performed research in 
     experimental pathology at the Division of Biologics Standards 
     (now the Center for Biologics Evaluation and Research, Food 
     and Drug Administration). During that time, she helped 
     develop and refine tests to assure the safety of viral 
     vaccines for such diseases as polio, measles and rubella. Her 
     work on polio led to the selection of the Sabin vaccine for 
     public use.
       Since 1974, Dr. Kirschstein has been serving in leadership 
     positions at the National Institutes of Health (NIH). When 
     she first began her service to NIH, she served as Director of 
     the National Institute of General Medical Sciences. She held 
     this position for 14 years. From 1990 to 1991, Dr. 
     Kirschstein also served as Acting Associate Director of the 
     NIH on research on women's health.
       Dr. Kirschstein served as Acting Director of the National 
     Institutes of Health between January 2000 and May 2002. Prior 
     to that post, Dr. Kirschstein served as the Deputy Director 
     between 1993 and 1999. Dr. Kirschstein has received many 
     honors and awards, including the Presidential Meritorious 
     Executive Rank Award, 1980; election of the Institute of 
     Medicine, 1982; a doctor of science degree from Mr. Siani 
     School of Medicine, 1984; the Presidential Distinguished 
     Executive Rank Award, 1983; an honorary doctor of laws 
     degree from Atlanta University, 1985; an honorary doctor 
     of science degree from the Medical College of Ohio, 1986; 
     an honorary doctor of humane letters from Long Island 
     University, 1991; and election as a fellow of the American 
     Academy of Arts and Sciences, 1992. In 2001, she received 
     honorary degrees from Spelman College and from Georgetown 
     University Medical School.
       Dr. Kirschstein has been both a visionary and a leader 
     during her service at NIH and has helped to make it the 
     world's premier biomedical research agency. In particular, 
     Dr. Kirschstein led the cutting edge of two of the most 
     important research trends of this generation. She played a 
     pivotal role in launching the Human Genome Project. She is 
     also credited with providing early and crucial support to 
     women's health studies, services and programs for the NIH and 
     pioneering the NIH Office of Women's Health Research.
       While serving as Acting Director of NIH, Dr. Kirschstein 
     has worked with Congress to achieve a doubling of the NIH 
     budget. Through her leadership, commitment, contributions and 
     unselfish service to the biomedical research community and 
     NIH, Dr. Kirschstein continues to serve her nation. The 
     conferees believe the naming of the National Research Service 
     Awards as the Ruth L. Kirschstein National Research Service 
     Awards is a fitting tribute to her outstanding service to 
     this country.
       Section 805. The conference agreement includes a provision 
     proposed by the Senate that exempts Alaska from section 166 
     of the Community Renewal Tax Relief Act of 2000. The House 
     bill contained no similar provision.
       Section 806. The conference agreement includes a provision 
     proposed by the Senate to reallocate funds provided for a 
     Labor project in the FY2001 bill. The House bill contained no 
     similar provision.
       Section 807. The conference agreement includes a provision 
     allowing the Secretary of Education to transfer lapsing funds 
     at the end of fiscal year 2002 to program administration in 
     an amount not to exceed any reduction pursuant to section 803 
     of this Act, but not more than $5,000,000. Neither the House 
     nor Senate bills contained this provision.
       The conference agreement does not include a permanent 
     change to the Higher Education Amendments of 1998 regarding 
     the Grants to States for Workplace and Community Transition 
     Training for Incarcerated Youth Offenders program as proposed 
     by the Senate. The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The conference agreement does not include language 
     specifying a new distribution of Title I funds within the New 
     York City public school system as proposed by the Senate. The 
     House bill contained no similar provision.

                  military construction, defense-wide

                     (including transfer of funds)

       The conference agreement includes $21,500,000 for this 
     account as proposed by the House. The Senate did not include 
     a similar provision. Of this amount, $19,600,000 is provided 
     for construction of a Joint Operations Complex at Fort Bragg, 
     North Carolina. The remaining $1,900,000 is provided for 
     planning and design of the project.
       These funds are designated a contingent emergency 
     requirements.

                    GENERAL PROVISIONS--THIS CHAPTER

       The conference agreement includes one general provision.
       The conference agreement includes a provision, Section 
     1001, as proposed by the Senate, which allows funds made 
     available in this Act to be used for military construction 
     projects with a requirement to provide Congress a 15-day 
     prior notification. The House did not include a similar 
     provision.

                      DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION

                        Office of the Secretary


                         Salaries and Expenses

              Transportation Administrative Service Center

                      (Limitation on Obligations)

       The conference agreement increases the fiscal year 2002 
     obligation for the Transportation Administrative Service 
     Center from $116,023,000 to $128,123,000 to accommodate 
     additional security needs of the Department, as proposed by 
     the House. The Senate bill also increased the limitation, but 
     in a general provision. The conferees do not concur with 
     language included in the Senate report on the simultaneous 
     termination of visas and drivers' licenses.

                 Transportation Security Administration


                     (Including Transfer of Funds)

       The recommendation includes $3,850,200,000 for activities 
     of the Transportation Security Administration (TSA), instead 
     of $3,850,000,000 as proposed by the House and $4,702,525,000 
     as proposed by the Senate. Of the total, the bill provides 
     that $480,200,000 is designated as a contingent emergency 
     appropriation, and $1,030,000,000 is to be transferred to the 
     Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) for reimbursement 
     of ``bridge loans'' made to TSA out of Emergency Response 
     Fund resources previously set-aside for FEMA activities in 
     New York City. Funds are available until expended, as 
     proposed by the Senate, instead of until September 30, 2003, 
     as proposed by the House.
       The conference agreement includes, and the bill specifies, 
     additional funding for critically-needed transportation 
     security improvements which were not included in the request, 
     as follows:

        Activity                                                 Amount
Modifications of airports to install checked baggage explosive 
  detection systems, including trace detection systems.....$225,000,000

Radiation detection system test and evaluation................4,000,000
Security research and development and pilot projects.........10,000,000

       TSA reprogramming procedures.--The conferees are concerned 
     that, including funds in this bill, $6,200,000,000 is being 
     provided to TSA in fiscal year 2002, with no reprogramming 
     guidelines or clearly-defined programs, projects, and 
     activities (PPAs) established or proposed by the 
     administration. TSA's budget requests include a mixture of 
     operating and capital expenses, which would normally involve 
     separate appropriations with strict controls over transfers. 
     In addition, TSA's budget information has sometimes been 
     contradictory, and has not been submitted in a common format 
     allowing useful budgetary comparisons or an appropriate level 
     of detail to be used for reprogramming controls. 
     Consequently, the conferees direct TSA to follow the existing 
     reprogramming procedures for the Department of 
     Transportation. These guidelines establish the following 
     minimum thresholds for reporting proposed funding shifts to 
     Congress:
       Proposed actions involving funding shifts of more than 15 
     percent of new budget authority for the benefiting or 
     providing PPA, or $1,000,000, whichever is less; or
       Proposed actions of any size that deviate from high 
     priority Congressional interests and requirements, as 
     reflected in report language and documented in DOT's annual 
     Base for Reprogramming Actions.
       To implement these procedures, a list of PPAs must be 
     developed against which the reprogramming thresholds apply. 
     To establish this, the conferees direct TSA to provide a 
     fiscal year 2002 reprogramming baseline to the House and 
     Senate Committees on Appropriations no later than August 9, 
     2002. This document shall serve as the baseline document for 
     future reprogrammings, and shall include, at a minimum, the 
     following PPAs:
       Third Party Screening Contracts, National Guard Costs, 
     State and Local Law Enforcement Officers, Intelligence Office 
     Costs;
       ACS Field Staff Salary and Benefits and Other Costs, ACS 
     Research/IPT Staff Salary and Benefits and Other Costs, ACS 
     Security Specialists Salary and Benefits and Other Costs, 
     Explosive Detection Research and Development, Human Factors 
     Research, Aircraft Hardening and Airport Security Technology 
     Research, Other Research, Research Pilot and Demonstration 
     Projects;
       Frontline Passenger Screener Salary and Benefits and Other 
     Costs, Supervisor Passenger Screener Salary and Benefits and 
     Other Costs;
       Frontline Passenger Screener Salary and Benefits and Other 
     Costs, Supervisor Passenger Screener Salary and Benefits and 
     Other Costs;
       TSA Cargo Inspectors Salary and Benefits and Other Costs;
       Law Enforcement Officer Salary and Benefits; Law 
     Enforcement Officer Other Costs, Law Enforcement Supervisor 
     Salary and Benefits, Law Enforcement Supervisor Other Costs;
       Federal Air Marshal Salary and Benefits, Federal Air 
     Marshal Other Costs, Federal Air Marshal Supervisor Salary 
     and Benefits, Federal Air Marshal Supervisor Other Costs;
       Federal Security Director Salaries and Benefits and Other 
     Costs, Airport Management and Staff Salaries and Benefits, 
     Airport Management and Staff Other Costs, Headquarters Salary 
     and Benefits, Headquarters Other Costs;
       Passenger Screener Hiring Contracts, Passenger Screener 
     Training Contracts, Baggage Screener Hiring Contracts, 
     Baggage Screener Training Contracts; and
       EDS/ETD Site Survey, EDS Integrator, Next Generation EDS, 
     CAPPS-II Data Integration, Maintenance for Leased Screening, 
     Start-Up and Administrative Support, Planning and Deployment, 
     Equipment Implementation, EDS Purchase, EDS Installation, ETD 
     Purchase, ETD Installation, Checkpoint Equipment, Equipment 
     Maintenance, Information Technology Projects, Time and 
     Attendance and Property Inventory Systems, Credentialing 
     Project.
       TSA performance goals and performance reporting.--The 
     Senate directed TSA to publish, on its website, monthly 
     statistics for each airport regarding compliance with the ten 
     minute wait time goal. Rather than reporting on a single 
     goal, the conferees agree that TSA should track and publish 
     information on a wide variety of goals, so this new agency's 
     growth and overall performance can be closely monitored by 
     the Congress, taxpayers, and the traveling public. Therefore, 
     the conferees direct TSA, as soon as possible, to begin 
     reporting on the wait time goals on its website as proposed 
     by the Senate. The conferees also direct that TSA begin 
     reporting on its website, or under separate cover to the 
     Congress as security concerns dictate, monthly performance 
     information for each of the following measures:
       Percent of commercial airports with permanent federal 
     security directors on the job;
       Percent of airports with TSA conducting passenger and 
     baggage screening;
       Percent of required EDS and ETD systems deployed;
       Percent of airports utilizing the CAPPS II system;
       Percent of commercial aircraft with phase II cockpit doors 
     installed;
       Average wait time at passenger screening checkpoint for 
     federalized airports;
       Number of complaints per 1,000 passengers for federalized 
     airports;
       Security cost per originating passenger for federalized 
     airports; and
       Percent of major ports with port vulnerability assessments 
     completed.
       Where applicable, this information should be presented on 
     an airport-by-airport or airline-by-airline basis, and the 
     TSA should include in its reports the specific information on 
     the wait time goal proposed by the Senate. While the 
     conferees acknowledge that appropriate goals for TSA will 
     change after the agency's start-up period, it is critical to 
     begin developing a baseline of performance information 
     against which future budget requests may be evaluated and 
     management oversight directed.
       Status reports on hiring and salary costs.--The Aviation 
     and Transportation Security Act provided TSA with broad 
     flexibility to set pay rates for its employees outside the 
     federal general schedule. While this provision was intended 
     to allow the agency flexibility in establishing its 
     workforce, the conferees are concerned that some positions 
     are being hired at rates, which are above those for similar 
     positions in other federal agencies. To monitor these 
     expenses, TSA is directed to begin submitting to the House 
     and Senate Committees on Appropriations, on a monthly basis, 
     a report on the number of employees the agency has on board 
     for each of the agency's job series. This report should

[[Page H4980]]

     include, at a minimum: (1) a description of each job series; 
     (2) the number of individuals employed in each job series; 
     (3) the total annual salary cost, average and median salary 
     costs, and standard deviation for salary distributions for 
     each job series; and (4) the degree to which the agency has 
     fulfilled the diversity goals as articulated by the Under 
     Secretary in testimony. Every two months, the report should 
     include a comparison of average salary costs and the 
     percentage change for each job series during the two month 
     period. It is expected that the same data will be provided 
     regarding federal air marshals, even if such data is 
     transmitted separately due to security considerations.
       Contract oversight.--TSA is currently budgeting over 
     $3,000,000,000 for start-up contract costs in fiscal year 
     2002. These include contracts for recruiting, hiring, and 
     training TSA's workforce; purchasing and deploying equipment; 
     and administrative support. Given that TSA is exempt from 
     most federal acquisition requirements and is undergoing rapid 
     growth, the conferees are concerned that contracts may be let 
     and managed without sufficient internal controls to monitor 
     contractor performance and guard against waste, fraud, and 
     abuse. Accordingly, the conferees direct that, for each 
     contract the agency enters into, TSA shall set aside one 
     percent of the total contract costs for contract oversight 
     activities. These activities should include, but are not 
     limited to: (1) overseeing contractor and subcontractor 
     performance with respect to cost, schedule, and quality; (2) 
     monitoring billings; (3) providing for independent cost 
     audits by the Defense Contract Audit Agency; and (4) 
     overseeing the volume of undefinitized contract actions and 
     the timely definitization of contracts. TSA is directed to 
     report to the House and Senate Committees on Appropriations 
     at the beginning of each fiscal quarter on the number and 
     dollar amount of all contracts let, including task orders 
     placed under existing contracts, the dollars allocated for 
     contract oversight and the nature of oversight activities 
     undertaken. At the time this information is submitted to 
     Congress, TSA should also provide such information to the 
     Department of Transportation Inspector General for his review 
     and analysis. At the request of the Committees on 
     Appropriations, the Inspector General has been conducting a 
     review of TSA's budget and financial management. Because this 
     information has been useful in determining appropriate 
     funding levels for TSA, the IG is directed to continue its 
     efforts and report to the Appropriations Committees as 
     necessary.
       Veteran's preference in hiring.--Within the next two 
     months, TSA plans to hire over 40,000 people. The Aviation 
     and Transportation Security Act requires that ``the Under 
     Secretary shall provide a preference for the hiring of an 
     individual as a security screener if the individual is a 
     member or a former member of the armed forces''. The 
     conferees are concerned that with the initial TSA screener 
     hiring, veterans who ``passed'' the TSA test were offered 
     jobs 83% of the time, while non-veterans who ``passed'' the 
     TSA test were offered jobs 88% of the time. The conferees 
     direct the Inspector General to review TSA's implementation 
     of the veterans preference requirement and submit a report to 
     the House and Senate Committees on Appropriations by August 
     31, 2002.
       DOT credentialing project.--Recently the Transportation 
     Security Administration announced the establishment of the 
     DOT credentialing project. This project's major goal is the 
     development and provision of a standardized transportation 
     worker identification card (TWIC) for all personnel--
     government, commercial, non-profit and others--requiring 
     access to secure facilities in any mode of transportation 
     nationwide. TSA's view is that such a system must include a 
     single type of card with access to a single, secure network 
     of databases. This project is much larger in scope than 
     envisioned at the time the fiscal year 2003 budget request 
     was submitted. The conferees have several concerns with this 
     project as currently proposed:
       TSA appears to have selected a particular type of 
     identification card, with inadequate justification or 
     consultation with Congress or affected industries concerning 
     the cost or requirements.
       Security vulnerabilities of the system have not been 
     adequately explained;
       TSA has not explained the program's costs or how such a 
     large effort, spanning several industries, will be financed; 
     and
       The agency has provided no details on how much funding is 
     included in the fiscal year 2002 or 2003 budgets for this 
     effort or details on anticipated pilot projects at airports.
       Given the inadequate planning and consultation on this 
     effort, the conferees direct TSA not to obligate further 
     funding for this effort except through existing reprogramming 
     procedures which require written notification to the Congress 
     and approval of the expenditure. The conferees will work with 
     TSA in development of the fiscal year 2003 Department of 
     Transportation and Related Agencies Appropriations Act to 
     resolve these issues.
       Airport modifications to install explosive detection 
     systems.--The conferees have provided a total of $738,000,000 
     for the costs of the physical modification of commercial 
     service airports for the purpose of installing explosive 
     detection systems. The amount provided is $225,000,000 more 
     than the level requested by the Administration. The conferees 
     note that a number of airports, including Seattle-Tacoma 
     International Airport, are in the process of constructing new 
     terminal facilities at precisely the same time that the new 
     explosive detection systems must be installed. In the case of 
     the South Terminal Expansion Project (STEP) at Seattle-Tacoma 
     International Airport, the sudden requirement to install 
     explosive detection systems has triggered dramatic cost 
     increases in the project due to the requirement to redesign 
     and reconfigure the terminal in mid-construction. As such, 
     the conferees direct that, in allocating the resources 
     provided over and above the Administration's request for EDS 
     installation, the Under Secretary be attentive to the needs 
     of the South Terminal Expansion Project and other airport 
     projects in a similar circumstance. The conferees understand 
     that Anchorage International Airport and Kansas City 
     International Airport may be in similar circumstances.
       Radiation detection system test and evaluation.--The 
     conferees are aware of emerging technologies designed to 
     detect the illicit trafficking of radioactive material. U.S. 
     and international agencies are currently utilizing portable 
     radiation search tools (PRST) for these purposes, and the 
     conferees believe this technology holds great promise in 
     protecting our nation's ports and waterways. The conference 
     agreement includes $4,000,000 to the Transportation Security 
     Administration, in coordination with the Coast Guard and the 
     Department of Energy, for testing, evaluation, and 
     procurement of PRST to determine the viability of this 
     technology in providing effective detection of this specific 
     nuclear threat.
       Threat image projection x-ray systems.--The conferees 
     continue to support x-ray training systems known as ``threat 
     image projection'' (TIP) systems, which have already been 
     deployed at major airports. TSA has recognized that TIP-ready 
     x-ray screening systems can significantly strengthen 
     checkpoint security by enhancing screener performance, 
     through continuous analysis and training. The conferees 
     encourage TSA to continue the acquisition and deployment of 
     TIP-ready x-ray systems at all commercial service airports.
       Port security grants.--The conference agreement includes 
     $125,000,000 for port security grants, instead of $75,000,000 
     as proposed by the House and $200,000,000 as proposed by the 
     Senate. The bill specifies that $20,000,000 is provided to 
     develop and conduct emergency incident response training and 
     exercises at ports. The conferees do not agree with the 
     Senate's proposal to limit grant awards to applications 
     already submitted. Instead, the conference agreement assumes 
     that grants will be awarded in as wise and expeditious a 
     manner as possible, using merit-based criteria.
       Pulsed Fast Neutron Analysis (PFNA).--The conferees believe 
     that the Pulsed Fast Neutron Analysis technology shows 
     extraordinary promise as a higher speed alternative to 
     existing technologies for detecting explosives and other 
     contraband in checked baggage. The conferees direct the Under 
     Secretary to use funds provided for security research and 
     development and pilot projects to demonstrate and test the 
     efficacy of the PFNA technology for this application in the 
     field.
       Biometrics.--The conferees expect the Under Secretary to 
     use funds provided for security research and development and 
     pilot projects to demonstrate the use of biometric technology 
     to improve security.
       Reconciliation of aviation security costs and 
     responsibilities.--The conferees direct that final report of 
     the Under Secretary and the DOT General Counsel regarding 
     aviation security costs and responsibilities be submitted to 
     the House and Senate Committees on Appropriations no later 
     than August 15, 2002.

                            U.S. COAST GUARD


                           Operating Expenses

       The conference agreement includes $200,000,000, to be 
     available until September 20, 2003, instead of $210,000,000 
     as proposed by the House and $318,400,000 as proposed by the 
     Senate. Of the total, $11,000,000 is designated as a 
     contingency emergency appropriation. Increases above the 
     requested amount are as follows:

        Activity                                                 Amount
Maintain reserves............................................$4,000,000
Port vulnerability assessments................................6,000,000
PACAREA ship refueling capability.............................1,000,000

       Pacific Area ship refueling capability.--The conferees 
     concur in the House proposal to provide $1,000,000 to address 
     at-sea refueling needs for drug interdiction activities in 
     the Eastern Pacific. These funds are specifically to be under 
     the control of the Commander, Joint Interagency Task Force 
     (JIATF)--East for the immediate procurement of at-sea 
     refueling capability to extend the range and endurance of 
     drug interdiction assets in that region.


              Acquisition, Construction, and Improvements

       The conference agreement includes $328,000,000 instead of 
     $78,000,000 as proposed by the House and $347,700,000 as 
     proposed by the Senate. Funds are available until September 
     30, 2004, as proposed by the Senate. Of the total, 
     $262,000,000 is designated as a contingent emergency 
     appropriation. The conference agreement includes the 
     following funding:

Vessels:
  Boarding and escort patrol boats (CPBs)...................$36,000,000

[[Page H4981]]

  87 foot coastal patrol boat small boat replacement..........2,100,000

                                                       ________________
                                                       
      Subtotal...............................................62,171,000

       Boarding and escort patrol boats.--The bill includes 
     $36,000,000 for procurement of additional 87-foot Barracuda 
     class coastal patrol boats. Along with the 110-foot Island 
     class, these boats are the backbone of Coast Guard's homeland 
     defense in our ports, waterways, and territorial waters. The 
     conferees believe these additional homeland security assets 
     are needed as a top priority.
       Ports and waterways safety systems.--The conference 
     agreement includes $22,929,000 to upgrade the port 
     surveillance and vessel tracking capability in the high-value 
     ports of New York, New York; Houston-Galveston, Texas; and 
     Port Arthur, Texas.
       Priority initiatives.--The conference agreement includes 
     $250,000,000 for critical acquisition, construction, and 
     improvement activities, including $200,000,000 for aircraft 
     and $50,000,000 for shore facilities. The conferees direct 
     that none of these funds may be obligated until submission of 
     a report to the House and Senate Committees on Appropriations 
     on the specific line items and activities to be funded and 
     the rationale for each proposed expenditure.

                    FEDERAL AVIATION ADMINISTRATION


                               operations

       The conference agreement includes $42,000,000 instead of 
     $100,000,000 as proposed by the Senate. Funds are designated 
     as a contingent emergency appropriation. The House bill 
     included no similar appropriation. In addition, the conferees 
     agree to language allowing the FAA to transfer up to 
     $33,000,000 from unobligated balances of ``Facilities and 
     equipment'' to this appropriation, instead of $25,000,000 as 
     proposed by the House. The conferees believe the combined 
     resources of $75,000,000 provide herein will accommodate the 
     agency's highest priority operating needs for the balance of 
     fiscal year 2002, including payroll and overtime costs for 
     air traffic controllers and space rental requirements. These 
     accounts were depleted earlier this year to address 
     unbudgeted security initiatives. This transfer shall be 
     subject to the Congressional reprogramming procedures.
       Controller shortage, Newark International Airport.--The 
     conferees agree to direct FAA to submit the report on air 
     traffic controller shortages at Newark International Airport 
     as included in section 1007 of the Senate bill. As specified 
     in that section, the report is due thirty days after 
     enactment of this Act. The Administrator shall submit such 
     report to the House and Senate Committees on Appropriations 
     and the authorizing committees of jurisdiction.


                        facilities and equipment

                    (airport and airway trust fund)

       The conference agreement includes $7,500,000 instead of 
     $15,000,000 as proposed by the Senate. These funds are 
     designated as a contingent emergency, and are for 
     rehabilitation of ARSR-4 long range radar systems, which are 
     being kept in service due to security concerns since the 
     terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001. The House bill 
     included no similar appropriation.


                       grants-in-aid for airports

                    (airport and airway trust fund)

       The conference agreement includes $150,000,000, instead of 
     $200,000,000 as proposed by the House and $100,000,000 as 
     proposed by the Senate. These funds are to enable the 
     Administrator to compensate airports for a portion of the 
     direct costs associated with new, additional or revised 
     security requirements imposed on airport operators by the 
     Administrator on or after September 11, 2001. The conferees 
     agree with direction of the Senate regarding the distribution 
     of these funds. Funds are to be derived from the airport and 
     airway trust fund as proposed by the Senate, instead of from 
     the general fund as proposed by the House, and are designated 
     as a contingent emergency appropriation.

                     FEDERAL HIGHWAY ADMINISTRATION

                          Federal-Aid Highways


                        emergency relief program

                          (highway trust fund)

       As proposed by both the House and the Senate, the 
     conference agreement included $167,000,000 from the highway 
     trust fund to fully fund the restoration and reconstruction 
     of Federal-aid highways-eligible state and local roads in New 
     York City damaged by the September 11th terrorist attacks. It 
     also waives the local match for these funds and exempts these 
     projects from the $100,000,000 per-disaster cap in emergency 
     relief funding.
       The conference agreement also includes $98,000,000, 
     designated as a contingent emergency appropriation from the 
     highway trust fund, for nationwide needs of the emergency 
     relief program instead of $120,000,000 as proposed by the 
     Senate. The House provided no similar appropriation. This 
     funding level fully satisfies FHWA's estimates of emergency 
     relief needs, as of June 11, 2002, for states and 
     territories, as shown in the table below, In addition, the 
     estimates include $12,000,000 for repair of the I-40 Bridge 
     in Oklahoma. The conferees expect emergency relief amounts 
     needed for federal land highway management agencies will be 
     addressed in the $100,000,000 authorization that will be 
     available on October 1, 2002.

Federal-Aid Highways


                          (highway trust fund)

                 (rescission of contract authorization)

       The conference agreement includes a rescission of 
     $320,000,000 in unspent contract authority available to the 
     states under the five core formula highway programs as 
     proposed by the Senate. The House included no such 
     rescission. This rescission will have no impact on fiscal 
     year 2002 highway construction activities, because such funds 
     are above annual limitations on obligations and are therefore 
     not available for obligation during fiscal year 2002.

              FEDERAL MOTOR CARRIER SAFETY ADMINISTRATION

                       Border Enforcement Program


                          (highway trust fund)

       The conference agreement includes $19,300,000 for the new 
     border enforcement program within the Federal Motor Carrier 
     Safety Administration, as proposed by both the House and 
     Senate. Of the amount provided, $4,200,000 is to fund the 
     implementation of section 1012 of the USA PATRIOT Act, which 
     includes up to 34 additional federal personnel; $8,000,000 is 
     for driver's license fraud detection and prevention projects, 
     including $800,000 for a contract effort to develop a unique 
     identifier for commercial drivers' licenses; $2,000,000 is to 
     develop a hazardous material security and education outreach 
     program and to conduct a northern border safety and 
     security study; and $5,100,000 is for coordinating state 
     drivers' license registration and social security number 
     verification.
       Consistent with both House and Senate language, the 
     conferees direct the Texas Department of Transportation to 
     consult with the City of Laredo and consider their concerns 
     regarding site selection for a cross-border inspection 
     facility. The conferees reinforce that federal safety 
     requirements must be met in any site selection decision. The 
     conferees also agree with language proposed by the Senate 
     that under no circumstances should the FMCSA approve a site 
     for such an inspection facility if the location compromises 
     the ability to enforce all statutory and regulatory safety 
     requirements, including those enacted as part of the 
     Department of Transportation and Related Agencies 
     Appropriations Act, 2002.

                   Hazardous Materials Safety Permits

                          (Highway Trust Fund)

       As proposed by the House, the conference agreement includes 
     $5,000,000 from the highway trust fund to implement the 
     permit program required by law for those motor carriers 
     transporting the most dangerous hazardous materials. The 
     Senate included no such appropriation. Funds are designated 
     as a contingent emergency appropriation. The conferees 
     extended the implementation date of the permit program to 
     December 1, 2002. The conferees also expect the Research and 
     Special Programs Administration to share data on hazardous 
     materials registrations with the Federal Motor Carrier Safety 
     Administration on a monthly basis.
       The conferees are aware of several commercially-available 
     technologies that could potentially enhance the security of 
     hazardous materials transportation. FMCSA, FHWA, and DOT's 
     Intelligent Transportation Systems Joint Program Office are 
     conducting operational tests of technology to prevent 
     unauthorized drivers from operating a vehicle, systems for 
     detecting a vehicle that is off-route, and systems to 
     remotely shut off the vehicle engine. The conferees direct 
     FMCSA to submit a report to the House and Senate Committees 
     on Appropriations no later than December 1, 2002 that 
     evaluates the potential of these technologies.

                    FEDERAL RAILROAD ADMINISTRATION

         Grants to the National Railroad Passenger Corporation

       The conference agreement includes $205,000,000 for 
     operating assistance to the

[[Page H4982]]

     National Railroad Passenger Corporation (Amtrak) instead of 
     the $55,000,000 as proposed by the Senate. The House bill 
     contained no similar appropriation. These are for necessary 
     expenses to operate the railroad through the remainder of 
     this fiscal year. On June 28, 2002, Amtrak entered into an 
     agreement with the Department of Transportation through which 
     Amtrak received a direct loan of $100,000,000, which the 
     agreement contemplates will be repaid by Amtrak's fiscal year 
     2003 appropriation. As part of that agreement, Amtrak agreed 
     to provide the DOT with certain operational and financial 
     data. Such data includes: All revenue and expenses associated 
     with rail operations by route; budgeted and actual 
     expenditures for all capital investments; monthly performance 
     reports; a report on Amtrak's operating relationships with 
     commuter rail systems; and an inventory and valuation of 
     Amtrak's assets as well as a timetable for obtaining an 
     updated valuation of those assets.
       The conferees expect Amtrak to transmit this information to 
     the House and Senate Committees on Appropriations at the same 
     time as it is transmitted to the Department of 
     Transportation.
       The agreement between Amtrak and DOT also calls on Amtrak's 
     management to present to Amtrak's Board of Directors a 
     prioritized list of expense reduction options totaling at 
     least $100,000,000 for fiscal year 2003--expense reductions 
     that the Board of Directors must apply to critical 
     maintenance needs throughout the Amtrak system. The conferees 
     direct that this list of expense reductions, as well as a 
     list of such critical maintenance projects, be provided to 
     the House and Senate Committees on Appropriations no later 
     than August 31, 2002--the date stipulated in the Amtrak-DOT 
     agreement.

                     FEDERAL TRANSIT ADMINISTRATION

                       Capital Investment Grants

       As proposed by both the House and Senate, the conference 
     agreement provides $1,800,000,000 in capital investment 
     grants to replace, rebuild, or enhance mass transportation 
     systems serving the Borough of Manhattan, New York City, New 
     York.

              RESEARCH AND SPECIAL PROGRAMS ADMINISTRATION

                     Research and Special Programs

       The conference agreement includes no funding to relocate 
     and upgrade the Department's crisis management center into a 
     new transportation information operations center (TIOC), 
     instead of $2,100,000 proposed by the House under the 
     Transportation Security Administration and $3,500,000 
     proposed by the Senate. Because of the recent announcement to 
     establish a new, cabinet-level Department of Homeland 
     Security, and the possible transfer of TSA and the Coast 
     Guard to that department, the conferees have deferred funding 
     for this item pending a final determination regarding DOT's 
     restructured role in security and crisis management.

                    GENERAL PROVISIONS--THIS CHAPTER

       The conference agreement amends the House provision that 
     makes certain projects and activities contained in the fiscal 
     year 2002 Department of Transportation and Related Agencies 
     Appropriations Act eligible to receive fiscal year 2002 
     funds. The amendment expands the provision to include 
     activities of the Job Access and Reverse Commute program. The 
     Senate proposed no similar provision.
       The conference agreement includes language proposed by the 
     Senate, instead of language proposed by the House, regarding 
     TSA's payment for rental space at airports.
       The conference includes language proposed by the Senate 
     regarding the calculation of tonnage for shipbuilding 
     purposes. The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The conference agreement includes the Senate provision 
     clarifying the alignment of a highway project in Mississippi 
     made eligible for enhancement funding in the fiscal year 2001 
     Department of Transportation and Related Agencies 
     Appropriations Act. The House proposed no similar provision.
       The conference agreement includes the Senate provision that 
     redirects $2,750,000 in previously appropriated intelligent 
     transportation system program funds to the Drexel University 
     Intelligent Infrastructure Institute for purposes authorized 
     in the Transportation Equity Act for the 21st Century. The 
     House proposed no similar provision.
       In addition to the location correction for the I-74 
     Mississippi River Bridge project in Illinois proposed by the 
     House, the conferees include a location correction for 
     another project contained in the conference agreement 
     accompanying the fiscal year 2002 Department of 
     Transportation and Related Agencies Appropriations Act. The 
     designation ``GSB-88 Emulsified binder treatment research, 
     Alabama'', under the transportation and community and system 
     preservation pilot program, should read ``GSB-88 Emulsified 
     binder treatment research, Tennessee''.

                               CHAPTER 12

                       DEPARTMENT OF THE TREASURY

                Federal Law Enforcement Training Center


                         Salaries and Expenses

       The conferees agree to provide $15,870,000 as proposed by 
     the House.

                      Financial Management Service


                         Salaries and Expenses

                              (Rescission)

       The conferees agree to rescind $14,000,000 of Public Law 
     107-20 as proposed by the House in section 1201 of the House 
     bill instead of $14,000,000 of Public Law 107-67 as proposed 
     by the Senate. The conferees have no objection to any 
     remaining unobligated balances from Public Law 107-20 being 
     used for computer security.

                     United States Customs Service


                         Salaries and Expenses

       The conferees agree to provide $39,000,000 instead of no 
     funding as proposed by the House and $59,000,000 as proposed 
     by the Senate. This funding is provided for startup costs, 
     including staffing and technology, for the Container Security 
     Initiative (CSI). The conferees did not include funding, as 
     proposed by the Senate, for monitoring and investigating 
     importation of products made with forced labor, nor did they 
     include a provision proposed by the Senate authorizing the 
     Customs Service to reimburse State and local law enforcement 
     agencies for assistance along the Northern Border.


                              Prison Labor

       The conferees note that the United States Customs Service 
     has the responsibility for monitoring and investigating the 
     importation into the United States of products made with 
     forced labor, the importation of which violates section 307 
     of the Tariff Act of 1930 or section 1761 of title 18, United 
     States Code.
       The manufacture of goods made using prison, forced, or 
     indentured labor continues to be an unfair trading practice 
     used by a large number of countries despite the long-standing 
     prohibition on importation of these goods into the United 
     States. The use of forced labor by other countries hurts 
     fair-trading U.S. businesses and defrauds U.S. consumers. The 
     conferees are particularly concerned about countries that 
     refuse to enforce their own laws that prohibit the 
     exportation of forced labor-made goods to the United States, 
     and those countries, such as China, that have not fulfilled 
     their obligations under existing bilateral agreements with 
     the United States pertaining to the inspection of suspected 
     forced labor facilities by appropriate U.S. officials.
       The conferees strongly urge the Customs Service to require 
     importers to provide certification to establish that goods 
     entering U.S. ports were made by legitimate foreign companies 
     that do not use prison, forced, or indentured labor. 
     Furthermore, the conferees strongly urge the Customs Service 
     to use fully its authority to block the importation of goods 
     that are suspected to have been made using forced labor, 
     especially in cases in which the United States has requested 
     of a foreign country an inspection of a specific factory or 
     other facility, but the requested inspection has not taken 
     place in a timely manner.

                        Internal Revenue Service


                          Information Systems

                              (Rescission)

       The conferees agree to rescind $10,000,000 as proposed by 
     the Senate instead of no rescission as proposed by the House.

                        Internal Revenue Service


                     Business Systems Modernization

       The conferees agree to provide $14,000,000 as proposed by 
     the House in section 1201 of the House bill instead of no 
     rescission as proposed by the Senate.

                      United States Secret Service


                         Salaries and Expenses

       The conferees agree to provide $28,530,000 instead of 
     $46,750,000 as proposed by the House and $17,200,000 as 
     proposed by the Senate. The funding includes $17,224,000 to 
     fund the costs of establishing and expanding electronic 
     crimes task forces, as authorized under the USA PATRIOT Act 
     of 2001, $7,491,000 for 51 positions required for additional 
     protective details pursuant to Executive Order, and 
     $3,815,000 in support of the workforce stabilization and 
     retention initiative.

                             Postal Service


                   Payment to the Postal Service Fund

       The conferees agree to provide $87,000,000 for emergency 
     expenses of the Postal Service as proposed by both the House 
     and Senate.

                   Executive Office of the President


                        Office of Administration

       The conferees agree to provide $3,800,000 for emergency 
     expenses of the Office of Administration, instead of 
     $5,000,000 as proposed by the Senate and no funding as 
     proposed by the House. The conferees have denied funding for 
     additional space requirements, travel support and support 
     staff. The conferees agree not to include a provision, as 
     proposed by the Senate, that funds provided to the Office of 
     Administration may not be obligated until the Senate confirms 
     a Director for Homeland Security.


                    Office of Management and Budget

                              (Rescission)

       The conferees agree to rescind $100,000, instead of 
     $750,000 as proposed by the House and no rescission as 
     proposed by the Senate.

          Election Administration Reform and Related Expenses

       The conferees agree to provide $400,000,000 for election 
     administration reform, instead of $450,000,000 as proposed by 
     the House and the Senate. The conferees agree make these 
     funds available to the appropriate Federal entities upon 
     enactment of legislation for election administration reform; 
     these funds are provided to the Office of Management and 
     Budget, as proposed by House, and with

[[Page H4983]]

     technical modifications, instead of being provided to the 
     Office of Justice Programs, as proposed by the Senate.

                      Federal Election Commission


                         Salaries and Expenses

       The conferees agree to provide $750,000 as proposed by the 
     House instead of no funding as proposed by the Senate.

                          INDEPENDENT AGENCIES

                    General Services Administration


                         Federal Buildings Fund

       The conferees agree to provide $21,800,000 instead of 
     $51,800,000 as proposed by both the House and the Senate.

                    General Services Administration


                         policy and operations

       The conferees agree to provide no funding as proposed by 
     the House instead of $2,500,000 as proposed by the Senate.

                    GENERAL PROVISIONS, THIS CHAPTER

       Section 1201. The conferees agree to include a provision 
     prohibiting the use of funds to transfer the functions, 
     missions, or activities of the United States Customs Service 
     to the Department of Justice.
       Section 1202. The conferees agree to include a provision 
     granting the Federal Law Enforcement Training Center the 
     authority to hire federal retirees for a period of up to five 
     years.
       Section 1203. The conferees agree to include a provision 
     deeming the Eisenhower Exchange Fellowship Program to be an 
     executive agency for certain purposes, modified from Section 
     1101 of the Senate to make the provision permanent.
       The conferees agree not to include a provision related to 
     Alaska Mail Delivery; this provision is included as a new 
     Title in this Act.
       The conferees agree not to include a provision establishing 
     the position of Director of Homeland Security, as proposed by 
     the Senate.
       The conferees agree not to include Section 1201 as proposed 
     by the House regarding a rescission of funds from the 
     Financial Management Service and an appropriation of funds to 
     the Internal Revenue Service.

                               CHAPTER 13

                     DEPARTMENT OF VETERANS AFFAIRS

                    Veterans Benefits Administration


                       compensation and pensions

       The conferees have provided $1,100,000,000 for compensation 
     and pensions as proposed by the Senate. The House did not 
     include funding for this account.

                     Veterans Health Administration


                              medical care

       The conferees have provided $417,000,000 for medical care 
     as proposed by the House and the Senate.
       The conferees have included language proposed by the House 
     directing VA to distribute all of the funds to the VISNs 
     according to VERA and directing the Centers for Medicare and 
     Medicaid Services (CMS) to issue each VA health care facility 
     a provider number, which in no way obligates CMS to reimburse 
     VA for services. The Senate made no similar provisions.
       The conferees reiterate report language proposed by the 
     House prohibiting the funds to be used for any purpose other 
     than direct health care services for priority 1-6 veterans 
     and language proposed by the Senate directing the Secretary 
     to report to the Committees on Appropriations on measures 
     taken to ensure accurate workload and resource needs 
     estimates in future budget justifications.

              DEPARTMENT OF HOUSING AND URBAN DEVELOPMENT

                       Public and Indian Housing


                        housing certificate fund

                              (rescission)

       The conference agreement rescinds $388,500,000 from 
     unobligated balances remaining available in the House 
     Certificate Fund, instead of $300,000,000 as proposed in the 
     House and Senate bills. Modified language is included, 
     similar to language proposed by the House, allowing the 
     Department to apply the rescission against the Section 8 
     program or any other program in the Department, instead of 
     limiting the rescission to only the Section 8 program as 
     proposed in the Senate bill. The conference agreement does 
     not include language proposed by the House bill prohibiting 
     the rescission of any funds governed by statutory 
     reallocation provisions, but instead includes language to 
     allow the rescission to be applied against any program. 
     Should the amounts available in the Section 8 program be 
     insufficient to meet the required rescission, the Department 
     is directed to notify the Committee of its plan to meet the 
     rescission target, with such notification being provided at 
     least seven days prior to implementation of the rescission.

                   Community Planning and Development


                       community development fund

       The conference agreement includes an emergency 
     appropriation of $783,000,000 for assistance to properties 
     and businesses, including restoration of damaged 
     infrastructure, and for economic revitalization activities in 
     the areas of New York City affected by the September 11, 2001 
     terrorist attacks, instead of $750,000,000 as proposed by the 
     House and Senate.
       The conferees recognize the tremendous human losses 
     suffered by those businesses located in the World Trade 
     Center, particularly those firms which suffered the greatest 
     loss of life in the attacks. Because of the conferees' strong 
     desire to support the redevelopment of the areas of New York 
     City affected by the attacks and to encourage those 
     businesses most devastated by the attacks to remain in New 
     York City, the conferees have provided a $33,000,000 increase 
     over the request. The conferees expect that these additional 
     funds will be made available to assist those firms located in 
     New York City at the time of the terrorist attacks which 
     suffered a disproportionate loss of its workforce and who 
     intend to re-establish their operations in New York City.
       The conferees concur with the language included in the 
     House report encouraging the Lower Manhattan Development 
     Corporation to consider the needs of utility companies and 
     other institutions affected by the World Trade Center 
     attacks.
       The conference agreement includes modified language, 
     similar to language proposed by the House and Senate, making 
     technical corrections to specific grants funded in prior 
     appropriations Acts.


                  home investment partnerships program

                              (rescission)

       The conference agreement rescinds $50,000,000 from fiscal 
     year 2002 funds made available contingent upon enactment of 
     an authorization, as proposed by the Senate. The House did 
     not include a similar rescission.

                            Housing Programs


                       Rental Housing Assistance

                              (Rescission)

       The conference agreement rescinds $300,000,000 from 
     contract authority in excess of amounts required to subsidize 
     mortgage payments pursuant to section 236 of the National 
     Housing Act, as proposed by the House.
       Language proposed by the Senate is not included directing 
     the Department to use the excess contract authority to 
     implement a rehabilitation grant program. The House did not 
     include a similar provision.

                          INDEPENDENT AGENCIES

                DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES

                     National Institutes of Health


          national institute of environmental health sciences

       The conferees have provided $8,000,000 to undertake and 
     continue research and worker training programs related to the 
     September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks as proposed by the 
     House. Of this amount, the conferees agree that $4,000,000 is 
     available for the research program and $4,000,000 is 
     available for worker training.

            Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry


            toxic substances and environmental public health

       The conferees have provided $11,300,000 for direct and 
     indirect costs of the Agency associated with the terrorist 
     attacks of September 11, 2001 as well as for further efforts 
     of the Agency to respond to chemical terrorism events, as 
     proposed by the House. Of this amount, the conferees agree 
     that $1,800,000 is to reimbursement ATSDR for additional 
     direct and indirect costs related to the events of September 
     11, 2001 which were not assumed in the fiscal year 2002 
     appropriation.
       The conferees further agree that $9,500,000 is expected to 
     be used to enhance the capacity of the States to respond to 
     chemical terrorism events. In this regard, the conferees note 
     that these and similar expenses are expected to be ``one time 
     only'' costs of the Agency to assist the States and are not 
     to become recurring costs in support of new State personnel.

                    Environmental Protection Agency


                         Science and technology

       The conference agreement provides $50,000,000 to perform 
     security vulnerability assessments of small and medium sized 
     drinking water systems instead of $100,000,000 as proposed by 
     the Senate and no funds as proposed by the House.


                 environmental programs and management

                          (transfer of funds)

       The conferees have included language which transfers 
     $400,000 appropriate in fiscal year 2002 from the 
     Environmental Programs and Management account to the State 
     and Tribal Assistance Grants account for wastewater and sewer 
     infrastructure improvements in the Town of Rosman, North 
     Carolina.


                     hazardous substance superfund

       The conferees have included $12,500,000 for reimbursement 
     to the Environmental Protection Agency for costs associated 
     with the investigation and cleanup of Anthrax within the 
     United States Capitol and Congressional building complex and 
     the Legislative Branch appropriations in this legislation as 
     proposed by the House instead of providing this reimbursement 
     directly to the EPA as proposed by the Senate.


                   state and tribal assistance grants

       The conferees have included bill language making technical 
     corrections to seven specific grants provided in fiscal years 
     2001 and 2002 instead of five such corrections as proposed by 
     the House and one such correction as proposed by the Senate.

[[Page H4984]]

                  Federal Emergency Management Agency


                            disaster relief

       The conferees have agreed to provide $2,650,700,000 in 
     emergency funding for disaster relief, instead of 
     $2,750,000,000 as proposed by the House and $2,660,000,000 as 
     proposed by the Senate. The amount appropriated includes a 
     reduction of $99,300,000 from the original supplemental 
     request. The conferees have also agreed to retain the House 
     Language that provides for the funds to be used to carry out 
     the Federal Fire Prevention and Control Act of 1975. 
     Additionally, the conferees agree to include language 
     proposed by the Senate which will establish criteria for the 
     Mortgage and Rental Assistance Program for victims of 
     September 11, 2001 and directs compensation for applicants 
     who had previously been denied benefits. The conference 
     agreement does not include House language with regard to the 
     Texas Medical Center.
       For the purposes of the September 11, 2001 attack on the 
     World Trade Center, measures taken by eligible private non-
     profit colleges and universities to protect the health and 
     safety of students and faculty residing in areas affected by 
     the disaster will be eligible for reimbursement.
       The conferees agree that FEMA is directed to provide 
     compensation to the New York city School system for costs 
     stemming from the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks for 
     activities including additional classroom instruction time, 
     mental health, trauma counseling, and other support services; 
     guidance and grief counseling; clean-up and structural 
     inspections and repairs of school facilities; and student 
     relocations, lost textbooks and perishable food.
       The conferees agree with the direction contained in House 
     Report 107-480 with regard to the FEMA Inspector General 
     review of FEMA's statutory authorities and identification of 
     any gaps in coverage which may exist in dealing with 
     disasters such as the terrorists attacks of September 11, 
     2001.


                  disaster assistance for unmet needs

       The conferees have agreed to provide $23,200,000 for 
     disaster assistance for unmet needs, instead of $23,320,000 
     as proposed by the House. The Senate did not include any 
     funding for this program. The amount will be available to 
     address unmet needs arising from Presidentially-declared 
     disasters occurring in fiscal year 2002.


              EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT PLANNING AND ASSISTANCE

       The conferees have agreed to provide $447,200,000 for 
     emergency management planning and assistance instead of 
     $151,700,000 as proposed by the House and $745,000,000 as 
     proposed by the Senate. Of the amount provided, $221,000,000 
     is contingent emergency funding. The amount provided includes 
     $100,000,00 for State and local all hazards operational 
     planning; $150,000,000 for the fire grant program as 
     authorized by the Federal Fire Prevention and Control Act of 
     1974, as amended; $25,000,000 for Citizen Corps; $56,000,000 
     for emergency operations centers; $5,000,000 for development 
     of mutual aid agreements; $7,000,000 for procurement of 
     secure communications equipment; $54,200,000 for upgrading 
     existing Urban Search and Rescue Teams; and $50,000,000 for 
     interoperable communications equipment for firefighters and 
     emergency medical services. With regard to the amounts listed 
     above, FEMA is directed to notify the Committees on 
     Appropriations of the House and Senate of any funding changes 
     between $500,000 and $1,000,000. Any change in excess of 
     $1,000,000 may be made only upon prior approval of the 
     Committees. The conferees direct FEMA to provide a spending 
     plan prior to obligation of any funds for State and local all 
     hazards operational planning.
       The conferees urge that grants under the interoperable 
     communications equipment programs be used to purchase cost 
     effective solutions which allow entities to make existing 
     communications interoperable such as cross band repeaters, 
     frequency band patching and other network level solutions. In 
     addition, equipment provided under these programs should be 
     compatible with public safety analog ANSI/TIA-603 and/or 
     digital radio ANSI/TIA-102 Standards.


                        CERRO GRANDE FIRE CLAIMS

       The conferees agree to provide $61,000,000 in contingent 
     emergency appropriations for claims resulting from the Cerro 
     Grande fire. The conferees have included bill language which 
     makes up to 5% of the funds available for administrative 
     purposes. The conferees do not anticipate a need for 
     additional funding and expect FEMA and the Cerro Grande Fire 
     Claims Office to expedite all claims.

                      National Science Foundation


                     EDUCATION AND HUMAN RESOURCES

       The conferees have provided $19,300,000 for the Federal 
     Cyber Service: Scholarships for Service program as proposed 
     by the Senate instead of no funds as proposed by the House.
       In light of the apparent need for increased Federal 
     personnel with enhanced information infrastructure skills, 
     significant appropriations have been provided to ``jump 
     start'' the program. With these supplemental funds, this new 
     program has been provided in excess of $30,000,000 for fiscal 
     year 2002. At the same time, however, the fact remains that 
     the Administration has yet to develop and forward to the 
     Congress a comprehensive, short- or long-term plan relative 
     to this program. Prior to September 16, 2002, the NSF is 
     directed to provide to the Committees on Appropriations a 
     report detailing how this program will significantly increase 
     the number of federal cyber security personnel and the 
     expected, long-term costs of the program. In developing this 
     report, NSF should consult with other federal agencies that 
     have experience in running scholarships-for-service programs. 
     This should include, but not be limited to, the Departments 
     of Education and Health and Human Services.

                    GENERAL PROVISIONS--THIS CHAPTER

       The conference agreement includes a provision increasing 
     the fiscal year 2002 total loan guarantee limitation to 
     $165,000,000,000 for the Federal Housing Administration (FHA) 
     single family mortgage insurance program as proposed by the 
     House. The Senate did not include a similar provision.
       The conference agreement includes a provision increasing 
     the fiscal year 2002 total loan guarantee limitation to 
     $23,000,000,000 for the FHA general and specialized risk 
     mortgage insurance programs as proposed by the House. The 
     Senate did not include a similar provision.
       The conference agreement includes language, modified from 
     language included in the Senate bill, directing the 
     Department of Housing and Urban Development to resume the 
     Asset Control Area Demonstration Program (ACA) by September 
     15, 2002. Language also is included requiring that any 
     agreement or contract conform with applicable statutory 
     requirements. In April 2002, the Department issued a 
     moratorium on new agreements and contracts, including 
     renewals of expiring contracts, pending a review of the 
     program and development of appropriate program management 
     tools and regulations to correct deficiencies identified by 
     the Inspector General. These deficiencies were largely the 
     result of the Department's failure to manage the program 
     consistent with the law. While the conferees understand that 
     such actions were necessary to correct these deficiencies, 
     the conferees are concerned that the moratorium could be 
     unduly punitive to those participants whose programs have met 
     the ACA demonstration program objectives. The conferees 
     believe it is important that the Department expeditiously 
     resolve this matter and resume the program in areas that 
     further the objectives of the program. The House did not 
     include a similar provision.
       The conference agreement includes modified language, 
     similar to language included in the Senate bill, directing 
     the HUD Secretary to provide quarterly reports on the status 
     of certain defaulted FHA-insured multifamily housing 
     projects. The House did not include a similar provision.
       The conference agreement includes language, modified from 
     language included in the Senate bill, to remove the use 
     restrictions on a property in Baltimore, Maryland, only for 
     the purposes of converting the property to student housing, 
     subject to certain requirements. These requirements include 
     the full payment of any outstanding mortgage balances and any 
     outstanding loan, and the use of residual receipts and 
     replacement reserves to pay for relocation of current tenants 
     with any excess to be returned to the Department of Housing 
     and Urban Development. Should the property not be converted 
     to student housing, the use restrictions would remain in 
     effect. The House bill did not include a similar provision.

                               CHAPTER 14

                     General Provisions--This Title

       The conference agreement includes a provision as proposed 
     by both the House and the Senate that limits the availability 
     of funds provided in this Act.
       The conference agreement includes the House provision that 
     fully offsets the revenue aligned budget authority reduction 
     required by TEA-21 in fiscal year 2003 by raising the highway 
     category guarantee and providing an additional $4,369,000,000 
     in federal-aid highway obligation limitation, for a total 
     obligation limitation of $27,653,143,000. The Senate bill 
     included a provision directing that the federal-aid highway 
     obligation limitation in fiscal year 2003 be at least 
     $27,746,000,000 and not more than $28,900,000,000.
       The conference agreement deletes a provision proposed by 
     the House to require the United States Government to take all 
     steps necessary to guarantee the full faith and credit of the 
     Government.
       The conference agreement does not include the provision 
     contained in the House bill reclassifying certain counties in 
     Pennsylvania and New York for purposes of reimbursement under 
     the Medicare program. The conferees express in the strongest 
     terms their request that the authorizing committees of 
     jurisdiction, the Senate Finance Committee and the House Ways 
     and Means Committee, develop legislation as soon as possible 
     to address the geographic inequities that exist nationwide in 
     Medicare reimbursements because of the wage indices used.
       The conference agreement includes a provision rescinding 
     $350,000,000 of previously appropriated funds made available 
     for administrative and travel expenses in all federal 
     agencies and offices. The provision specifies that individual 
     rescissions to implement this reduction shall be applied 
     on a pro rata basis to each office, agency, and Department 
     in the executive branch that is funded in Appropriations 
     Acts. The Director of the Office of Management and Budget 
     shall provide a report to the Committees on Appropriation 
     within 30 days after the date of enactment of this Act 
     describing: (1) the amount rescinded in each office, 
     agency, and

[[Page H4985]]

     Department; and (2) the methodology used to identify the 
     offices, accounts, and amounts to be rescinded. Neither 
     the House nor the Senate bill included a similar 
     provision.
       The conference agreement modifies language proposed in 
     Title II of the Senate bill relating to the availability of 
     emergency appropriations in this Act. The conference 
     agreement provides that any amount in this Act for which 
     availability is made contingent upon an emergency designation 
     by the President shall not be available unless all such 
     contingent amounts are designated by the President. The 
     designation must be made within 30 days of enactment of this 
     Act.
       The conference agreement deletes a provision as proposed in 
     Title II of the Senate bill relating to a sense of the Senate 
     on the reorganization of the FBI.

                                TITLE II

                American Service Members' Protection Act

       The conference agreement includes the American Service 
     Members' Protection Act as proposed by the House and the 
     Senate. The conference agreement also includes a provision, 
     as proposed by the Senate, relating to assistance to 
     international efforts to bring certain individuals to 
     justice.

                               TITLE III

                             Other Matters

       The conference agreement includes a provision as proposed 
     by the House relating to adjustments to the Caribbean Basin 
     Economic Recovery Act with respect to textiles.
       The conference agreement includes a provision relating to 
     mail delivery in Alaska, as proposed by the Senate, with 
     technical modifications. The House bill included a related 
     provision as section 1406.
       The conference agreement includes a provision, as proposed 
     by the Senate, relating to amendments to the Alaska Native 
     Claims Settlement Act. The House bill contained no similar 
     provision.
