     circuit may delegate such approval authority to an active

     of the transaction, including the date, quantity, chemical, 
     container, name of transferees, and such other information as 
     the Attorney General may specify in regulations. For 
     importers, a single return declaration may include the

       ``(B) reimburse the Drug Enforcement Administration for 
     expenses related to the clean up of methamphetamine 
     clandestine labs;
       ``(C) support State and local health department and 
     environmental agency services deployed to address 
     methamphetamine; and
       ``(D) procure equipment, technology, or support systems, or 
     pay for resources, if the applicant for such a grant 
     demonstrates to the satisfaction of the Attorney General that 
     expenditures for such purposes would result in the reduction 
     in the use, sale, and manufacture of methamphetamine.

       JOINT EXPLANATORY STATEMENT OF THE COMMI1TEE OF CONFERENCE

       The managers on the part of the House and the Senate at the 
     conference on the disagreeing votes of the two Houses on the 
     amendment of the Senate to the bill (H.R. 3199), to extend 
     and modify authorities needed to combat terrorism, and for 
     other purposes, submit the following joint statement to the 
     House and the Senate in explanation of the effect of the 
     action agreed upon by the managers and recommended in the 
     accompanying conference report:
       The Senate amendment struck all of the House bill after the 
     enacting clause and inserted a substitute text.
       The House recedes from its disagreement to the amendment of 
     the Senate with an amendment that is a substitute for the 
     House bill and the Senate amendment. The differences between 
     the House bill, the Senate amendment, and the substitute 
     agreed to in conference are noted below, except for clerical 
     corrections, conforming changes made necessary by agreements 
     reached by the conferees, and minor drafting and clarifying 
     changes.
     Section 1. Short title. Table of contents
       The House receded to the Senate on the short title of the 
     Act. The short title is the ``USA PATRIOT Improvement and 
     Reauthorization Act of 2005.''

        TITLE I--USA PATRIOT IMPROVEMENT AND REAUTHORIZATION ACT

     Section 101. References to, and modification of short title 
         for, USA PATRIOT Act
       Section 101 of the conference report is identical to 
     section 101 of the House bill and similar to section 9(d) of 
     the Senate amendment. Section 101 states that references 
     contained within the conference report to the USA PATRIOT Act 
     shall be deemed a reference to Public Law No. 107-56, the 
     ``Uniting and Strengthening America by Providing Appropriate 
     Tools Required to Intercept and Obstruct Terrorism Act (USA 
     PATRIOT Act) of 2001.''
     Section 102. USA PATRIOT Act sunset provisions
       Section 102 of the conference report adopts a 4-year sunset 
     on sections 206 and 215 of the USA PATRIOT Act, and makes 
     permanent the other provisions, all of which were set to 
     expire on December 31, 2005. Sections 206 and 215 relate to 
     Foreign Intelligence Court orders for multipoint, or 
     ``roving,'' wiretaps and for business records requested under 
     the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA).
     Section 103. Extension of sunset relating to individual 
         terrorists as agents of foreign powers
       Section 103 of the conference report extends the sunset of 
     section 6001(b) of the Intelligence Reform and Terrorism 
     Prevention Act (IRTPA) by 4 years so the provision is set to 
     expire on December 31, 2009. Section 6001(b) applied the USA 
     PATRIOT Act sunset to the new definition of ``Agent of a 
     Foreign Power'' under section 6001 of IRTPA. Section 6001 
     states that an ``Agent of a foreign power'' for any person 
     other than a United States person, includes a person who 
     ``engages in international terrorism or activities in 
     preparation thereof.'' This definition reaches ``lone wolf'' 
     terrorists engaged in international terrorism.
     Section 104. Section 2332b and the material support sections 
         of Title 18, United States Code
       Section 104 of the conference report is identical to 
     section 104 of the House bill and substantively similar to 
     section 9(c) of the Senate amendment. This section makes 
     section 6603 of the IRTPA permanent by repealing the sunset 
     contained in section 6603(g) of the IRTPA. This sunset would 
     have allowed a criminal offense, and not a law enforcement 
     tool, to expire. Furthermore, this sunset effectively made 
     the underlying provision unconstitutional. Section 6603 of 
     the IRTPA amended the law to address court concerns on the 
     constitutionality of the prohibition of providing material 
     support to terrorists.
     Section 105. Duration of FISA surveillance of non-United 
         States persons under section 207 of the USA PATRIOT Act
       Section 105 of the conference report is substantively 
     similar to section 106 of the House bill and section 3 of the 
     Senate amendment. This section further extends the maximum 
     duration of orders for electronic surveillance and physical 
     searches targeted against all agents of foreign powers who 
     are not U.S. persons. Initial orders authorizing searches and 
     electronic surveillance will be for periods of up to 120 days 
     and renewal orders will extend for periods of up to one year. 
     Section 105 also extends the maximum duration for both the 
     initial and renewal orders for pen register/trap and trace 
     surveillance to a period of one year in cases where the 
     government certified that the information likely to be 
     obtained is foreign intelligence information not concerning a 
     U.S. person.
     Section 106. Access to certain business records under section 
         215 of the USA PATRIOT Act
       Section 106 of the conference report is a compromise 
     between section 107 of the House bill and section 7 of the 
     Senate amendment. This section of the conference report 
     amends section 215 of the USA PATRIOT Act to clarify that the 
     tangible things sought by a section 215 FISA order (``215 
     order'') must be ``relevant'' to an authorized preliminary or 
     full investigation to obtain foreign intelligence information 
     not concerning a U.S. person or to protect against 
     international terrorism or clandestine intelligence 
     activities. The provision also requires a statement of facts 
     to be included in the application that shows there are 
     reasonable grounds to believe the tangible things sought are 
     relevant, and, if such facts show reasonable grounds to 
     believe that certain specified connections to a foreign power 
     or an agent of a foreign power are present, the tangible 
     things sought are presumptively relevant. Congress does not 
     intend to prevent the FBI from obtaining tangible items that 
     it currently can obtain under section 215.
       The provision also clarifies that a recipient of a FISA 
     section 215 production order may challenge that order, and 
     may disclose receipt to a lawyer, other persons necessary to 
     comply with the order, and additional persons approved by the 
     FBI. This provision allows the FBI to request the recipient 
     to identify the individuals to whom disclosure has been or 
     will be made. The provision also makes clear that a judge 
     should approve an application only ``if the judge finds that 
     the [applicable] requirements [of the section] have been 
     met.'' The provision also expressly provides for a judicial 
     review process that authorizes a specified pool of FISA court 
     judges to review a 215 order that has been challenged. The 
     provision requires high-level

[[Page H11303]]

     approval, and specific congressional reporting, of requests 
     for certain sensitive categories of records, such as library, 
     bookstore, tax return, firearms sales, educational, and 
     medical records. The provision requires promulgation and 
     application of minimization procedures governing the 
     retention and dissemination by the FBI of any tangible thing 
     obtained under this section and requires restrictions on the 
     use of information obtained with an order under this section.
       In addition, section 106 directs the Attorney General to 
     draft minimization procedures that apply to information 
     obtained under a FISA ``business records'' order. In the 
     application for the order, the applicant must enumerate the 
     minimization procedures applicable to the retention and 
     dissemination of the tangible things sought by the FBI in the 
     application. Such enumerated procedures should meet the 
     requirements set forth in the definition of minimization 
     procedures found in new subsection (g) of section 501. If the 
     court finds that the enumerated procedures fail to meet the 
     requirements of subsection (g), the Conferees expect that the 
     court will direct that other procedures adopted by the 
     Attorney General be applied to the information sought, 
     consistent with the authority of the court specified in 
     section 501(c)(1), as amended.
       Under subsection (g)(1), as amended, the Attorney General 
     is required to adopt minimization procedures within 180 days 
     of the enactment of this Act. Until the Attorney General 
     complies, the Conferees expect that the requirements of 
     subsections (b)(2)(B), (c)(1), and (h) that relate to the 
     adoption of minimization procedures will be viewed as 
     ineffective and, thus, not prevent the use of section 501 to 
     acquire tangible things.
     Sec. 106A. Audit on access to certain business records for 
         foreign intelligence purposes
       Section 106A of the conference report is a new provision. 
     This section requires that the Department of Justice 
     Inspector General conduct an audit on the effectiveness and 
     use of section 215 and submit an unclassified report of the 
     audit to the House and Senate Committees on the Judiciary and 
     Intelligence.
     Section 107. Enhanced oversight of good-faith emergency 
         disclosures under section 212 of the USA PATRIOT Act
       Section 107 of the conference report is virtually identical 
     to section 4 of the Senate amendment, but includes some 
     technical corrections to title 18 of the United States Code. 
     Section 108 of the House bill is substantively similar. 
     Section 107 of the conference report amends 18 U.S.C. 
     Sec. 2702, as amended by section 212 of the USA PATRIOT Act. 
     Section 212 allows Internet service providers to disclose 
     voluntarily the contents of electronic communications, as 
     well as subscriber information, in emergencies involving 
     immediate danger of death or serious physical injury. To 
     address concerns that this authority, in certain 
     circumstances, is not subject to adequate congressional, 
     judicial, or public oversight (particularly in situations 
     where the authority is used but criminal charges do not 
     result) the conference report requires the Attorney General 
     to report annually to the Judiciary Committees of the House 
     and Senate and to set forth the number of accounts subject to 
     section 212 disclosures. The report also must summarize the 
     basis for disclosure in certain circumstances. The Conferees 
     believe this will strengthen oversight on the use of this 
     authority without undermining important law enforcement 
     prerogatives and without alerting perpetrators, while 
     simultaneously preserving the vitality of this life-saving 
     authority.
     Section 108. Multipoint electronic surveillance under section 
         206 of the USA PATRIOT Act
       Section 108 of the conference report is a compromise 
     between section 109 of the House bill and section 2 of the 
     Senate amendment. Section 206 of the USA PATRIOT Act enabled 
     the use of multipoint, or ``roving,'' wiretaps in FISA 
     investigations. The conference report clarifies that the FISA 
     court must find that the possibility of the target thwarting 
     surveillance is based on specific facts in the application. 
     This is reflected in language contained in section 109(a) of 
     the House bill and for which the Senate amendment did not 
     have a comparable provision. In language derived from section 
     2(a) of the Senate amendment and for which the House bill had 
     no comparable provision, the conference report also requires 
     that the order describe the specific target in detail when 
     authorizing a roving wiretap for a target whose identity is 
     not known. The conference report requires that in the event 
     the government begins directing surveillance at a new 
     facility or place where the nature and location of each of 
     the facilities or places was unknown at the time the 
     surveillance order was issued, the government must notify the 
     issuing FISA court on an ongoing basis for all multipoint 
     surveillance authority, which addresses concerns of some that 
     the open-ended authorization to surveil new locations could 
     be abused. The conference report provisions provide further 
     protections by including an extra layer of judicial review 
     and to ensure that intelligence investigators will not abuse 
     the multipoint authority. This approach is superior in the 
     FISA context (where surveillance is often long-running and 
     subject to extensive and sophisticated counter-surveillance 
     measures) to a proximity test or ascertainment requirement, 
     both of which could potentially endanger an investigation or 
     field agents conducting the investigation.
     Section 109. Enhanced congressional oversight
       Section 109 of the conference report is similar to section 
     10 of the Senate amendment, but with an additional new 
     provision. Section 109 of the conference report is identical 
     to section 10 of the Senate amendment and requires: (1) the 
     FISA court to publish its rules; and (2) reporting to the 
     House and Senate Judiciary Committees of the use of the 
     emergency employments of electronic surveillance, physical 
     searches, and pen register and trap and trace devices. 
     Section 109(c) of the conference report also requires that 
     the Secretary of the Department of Homeland Security submit a 
     written report providing a description of internal affairs 
     operations at U.S. Citizenship & Immigration Services to 
     the Judiciary Committees of the House and the Senate.
     Section 110. Attacks against railroad carriers and mass 
         transportation systems
       The conference report is substantively similar to sections 
     110, 115, and 304 of the House bill. There are no equivalent 
     provisions in the Senate amendment, but section 110 of the 
     conference report is substantively similar to S. 629, the 
     ``Railroad Carriers and Mass Transportation Act of 2005,'' 
     which was reported favorably by the Senate Judiciary 
     Committee. Section 110 of the conference report amends 18 
     U.S.C. Sec. 1993, which was created by the USA PATRIOT Act to 
     protect against terrorist attacks and other acts of violence 
     against mass transportation systems. However, current law 
     does not cover the planning for such attacks. The conference 
     report closes this loophole to make it a crime to ``surveil, 
     photograph, videotape, diagram, or to otherwise collect 
     information with the intent to plan or assist in planning any 
     of the acts described'' in paragraphs (1)-(5) of section 
     1993(a). It also harmonizes section 1993 with 18 U.S.C. 
     Sec. 1992 (which criminalizes the ``wrecking of trains''), in 
     order to eliminate the inconsistency between the intent 
     standard in the mass transportation statute and the intent 
     standard in the wrecking trains statute. It also strengthens 
     the protection of mass transportation and railroad systems 
     by: expanding the types of railroad property and equipment 
     that are explicitly protected by Federal law; updating the 
     definition of ``dangerous weapons'' to cover box cutters and 
     other previously unrecognized weapons; and expanding the 
     types of prohibited attacks to include causing the release of 
     a hazardous material, a biological agent, or toxin near the 
     property of a railroad carrier or mass transportation system. 
     The conference report restricts the death penalty against 
     inchoate offenses, but retains the death penalty for 
     aggravated offenses. The section also expands coverage of the 
     criminal offense to include passenger vessels (as defined in 
     46 U.S.C. Sec. 2101(22)).
     Section 111. Forfeiture
       Section 111 of the conference report is identical to 
     section 111 of the House bill. There is no comparable section 
     in the Senate amendment. The USA PATRIOT Act amended 18 
     U.S.C. Sec. 981 to expressly provide that any property used 
     to commit or facilitate the commission of, derived from, or 
     otherwise involved in a Federal crime of terrorism (as 
     defined in 18 U.S.C. Sec. 2331) is subject to civil 
     forfeiture provisions. Prior to the USA PATRIOT Act, only the 
     ``proceeds'' of a crime of terrorism were subject to civil 
     forfeiture provisions. This section extends forfeiture to 
     include property used in or derived from ``trafficking in 
     nuclear, chemical, biological, or radiological weapons 
     technology or material.''
     Section 112. Section 2332b(g)(5)(B) amendments relating to 
         the definition of Federal crime of terrorism
       Section 112 of the conference report is substantively 
     similar to section 112 of the House bill but includes an 
     additional offense. There is no comparable provision in the 
     Senate amendment. This section amends the current definition 
     of ``Federal crime of terrorism,'' to include new predicate 
     offenses. It also includes a clerical correction to 18 U.S.C. 
     Sec. 2332b(g)(S)(B).
     Section 113. Amendments to section 2516(1) of Title 18, 
         United States Code
       Section 113 of the conference report is substantively 
     similar to sections 113 and 122 of the House bill, but 
     includes additions. 18 U.S.C. Sec. Sec. 2510-2522 require the 
     government, unless otherwise permitted, to obtain an order of 
     a court before conducting electronic surveillance. The 
     government is permitted to seek such orders only in 
     connection with the investigation of the criminal offenses 
     enumerated in 18 U.S.C. Sec. 2516. The USA PATRIOT Act added 
     new wiretap offenses related to terrorism. Section 113 adds 
     new ``wiretap predicates'' under 18 U.S.C. Sec. 2516, which 
     relate to crimes of terrorism. Those predicates include 18 
     U.S.C. Sec. Sec. 37 (violence at international airports); 43 
     (animal enterprise terrorism); 81 (arson within special 
     maritime and territorial jurisdiction); 175b (biological 
     agents); 832 (nuclear and weapons of mass destruction 
     threats); 842 (explosive materials); 930 (possession of 
     weapons in Federal facilities); 956 (conspiracy to harm 
     persons or property overseas); 1028A (aggravated identity 
     theft); 1114 (killing Federal employees); 1116 (killing 
     certain foreign officials); 1993 (attacks of mass transit); 
     2340A (torture); 2339 (harboring terrorists); 2339D 
     (terrorist military training); and 5324 (structuring 
     transactions to evade reporting requirements). In addition to 
     these sections, new

[[Page H11304]]

     predicates are added under 49 U.S.C. Sec. Sec. 46504 (assault 
     on a flight crew member with a dangerous weapon); and 
     46505(b)(3) or (c) (certain weapons offenses aboard an 
     aircraft).
     Section 114. Delayed notice search warrants
       Section 114 of the conference report is a compromise 
     between sections 114 and 121 of the House bill and section 5 
     of the Senate amendment. Contrary to reports; the USA PATRIOT 
     Act did not create delayed notice search warrants, but rather 
     codified existing case law governing delayed notices for 
     search warrants. Delayed notice simply means that a court has 
     expressly authorized investigators to delay temporarily 
     notifying a subject that a search warrant has been executed 
     (i.e., a court-ordered search has occurred). The search 
     warrant itself is the same regardless of when the subject 
     receives notice. Thus, before a search warrant is issued, 
     whether notice is or is not delayed, a Federal judge must 
     find that there is probable cause to believe that a crime has 
     been or is about to be committed and that evidence of that 
     crime or the fruits or instrumentalities of that crime will 
     be found at the location to be searched. As the Department of 
     Justice explained in an August 29, 2005 letter (p. A-5), 
     ``Delayed notice search warrants have been available for 
     decades and were in use long before the USA PATRIOT Act was 
     enacted. Section 213 of the USA PATRIOT Act merely created a 
     nationally uniform process and standard for obtaining them.''
       Section 213 codified the established standard of 
     reasonableness for delayed notice search warrants, which 
     previously had been the cause for some to express concern 
     about this indefinite term. Both the House bill in section 
     114, and the Senate amendment in section 5, placed a maximum 
     specified limit on the length of time in which a judge could 
     authorize law enforcement to delay notice to the subject that 
     a search has been conducted. The House provision provided 
     that the court maintains the discretion to delay notice 
     for up to 180 days with extensions of up to 90 days. The 
     Senate amendment limited the delay to ``not later than 7 
     days after the date of its execution, or on a later date 
     certain if the facts of the case justify a longer period 
     of delay, with extensions of up to 90 days unless the 
     facts justify longer.'' The conference report reflects a 
     compromise between the House and Senate provisions to 
     define a reasonable delay as up to 30 days for an initial 
     request, or on a later date certain if the facts justify, 
     and extensions of up to 90 days unless the facts justify 
     longer.
     Section 115. Judicial review of national security letters
       Section 115 of the conference report is substantively 
     similar to section 116 of the House bill and section 8 of the 
     Senate amendment. This section makes explicit that the 
     recipient of a national security letter (NSL) may consult 
     with an attorney and challenge the NSL in court. This section 
     of the conference report amends NSL authority under 18 U.S.C. 
     Sec. 2709, 15 U.S.C. Sec. 1681u, 15 U.S.C. Sec. 1861v, 12 
     U.S.C. Sec. 3414, and 50 U.S.C. Sec. 436, in a similar manner 
     to the House bill. The Senate amendment only modified 18 
     U.S.C. Sec. 2709. The conference report: provides that the 
     recipient of an NSL may petition for an order modifying or 
     setting aside the request in the U.S. district court for the 
     district in which that person or entity does business or 
     resides; allows the government to move for judicial 
     enforcement of the NSL in the event of non-compliance by 
     recipients; and allows the court to impose sanctions for 
     contempt of court if a recipient fails to comply with a court 
     order to enforce an NSL.
     Section 116. Confidentiality of national security letters
       Section 116 of the conference report is substantively 
     similar to section 117 of the House bill and section 8 of the 
     Senate amendment. This section provides that upon 
     certification by an individual authorized to issue an NSL, 
     should the disclosure endanger any individual or national 
     security, or interfere with diplomatic relations or a 
     criminal or intelligence investigation, then the disclosure 
     of the NSL is prohibited. This section allows for the 
     disclosure to those necessary to comply with an NSL or obtain 
     legal advice or assistance with respect to an NSL. If the 
     recipient makes this further disclosure as authorized by law, 
     the recipient must then notify the person or persons of all 
     applicable nondisclosure requirements. At the request of the 
     Director of National Intelligence, the conference report 
     includes language that allows the Director of the Federal 
     Bureau of Investigation, or the designee of the Director, to 
     request from any person making or intending to make a 
     disclosure to comply with or to receive legal advice or legal 
     assistance, to identify to whom such disclosure will be made. 
     The language does not allow the FBI Director or designee of 
     the Director to request the recipient of an NSL disclose the 
     name of an attorney to whom such disclosure will be made. The 
     provision, however, does allow the FBI Director or designee 
     of the Director to make such a request for the name of an 
     attorney to whom disclosure has already been made. The 
     conference report clarifies that a recipient of an NSL may 
     challenge any nondisclosure requirement in court. If a 
     petition is filed within 1 year of issuance of an NSL, the 
     court may modify or set aside such a nondisclosure 
     requirement if it finds that there is no reason to believe 
     that disclosure may harm national security; interfere with 
     criminal, counterintelligence, or counterterrorism 
     investigations; interfere with diplomatic relations; or 
     endanger the life or physical safety of a person. If, upon 
     filing the petition, a high-ranking official re-certifies 
     that disclosure may endanger national security or interfere 
     with diplomatic relations, the court must treat the re-
     certification as conclusive unless there is a showing of bad 
     faith. If a petition is filed after a year, a specific 
     official, within 90 days of the filing of the petition, shall 
     either terminate the nondisclosure requirement or re-certify 
     that nondisclosure may: result in danger to the national 
     security of the U.S.; interfere with a criminal, 
     counterterrorism, or counterintelligence investigation; 
     interfere with diplomatic relations; or endanger the life or 
     physical safety of any person. In the event of re-
     certification, the court again may modify or set aside such a 
     nondisclosure requirement only upon a finding of bad faith. 
     The petitioner is barred from seeking review of the 
     nondisclosure requirement for one year if the petition was 
     denied, but can continue to petition every year. This 
     provision recognizes that the Executive branch is both 
     constitutionally and practically better suited to make 
     national security and diplomatic relations judgments than the 
     judiciary.
     Section 117. Violations of nondisclosure provisions of 
         national security letters
       This section of the conference report is similar to section 
     118 of the House bill. There is no comparable provision in 
     the Senate amendment. This section provides for a felony 
     charge against an individual who was notified of an 
     applicable nondisclosure requirement and nonetheless 
     knowingly and with intent to obstruct an investigation or 
     judicial proceeding, violates that nondisclosure order. The 
     criminal penalties under 18 U.S.C. Sec. 1510 include up to 
     five years imprisonment, a fine, or both. Current law 
     contains no penalties for such violations.
     Section 118. Reports on national security letters
       Section 118 of the conference report is similar to section 
     119 of the House bill, with some additional reporting 
     requirements that are similar to provisions contained in the 
     Senate amendment. This section requires reporting to the 
     House and Senate Judiciary Committees on all NSLs, similar to 
     reporting that the Intelligence Committees receive. This 
     section also requires that the Attorney General submit to 
     Congress the annual aggregate number of requests made 
     concerning different U.S. persons. Such reporting will permit 
     the public to see some of the same data Congress sees in 
     conducting its oversight responsibilities of the DOJ. Due to 
     the manner in which this data is currently collected, 
     Congress understands that current reporting may somewhat 
     overstate the number of different U.S. persons about whom 
     requests for information are made, because NSLs seeking 
     information on a particular person may be served at different 
     times and from different FBI field offices. In order to 
     report a number to Congress that is as meaningful as 
     possible, Congress anticipates that the DOJ will undertake 
     reasonable efforts to modify its data collection. Congress, 
     however, does not anticipate that the DOJ will undertake 
     costly or bureaucratically difficult steps to prepare this 
     report.
     Section 119. Enhanced oversight of national security letters
       Section 119 is a new section that requires the Inspector 
     General of DOJ to conduct an audit of the effectiveness and 
     the use of the NSL authority. The report will detail the 
     specific functions and particular characteristics of the NSLs 
     issued and comment on the necessity of this law enforcement 
     tool. This report will be submitted to the House and Senate 
     Committees on the Judiciary and Intelligence one year after 
     the enactment of the conference report.
     Section 120. Definition for forfeiture provisions under 
         section 806 of the USA PATRIOT Act
       Section 120 of the conference report is substantively 
     similar to section 120 of the House bill. There is no 
     comparable provision in the Senate amendment. This provision 
     replaces the reference to the broad definition under 18 
     U.S.C. Sec. 2331 with the definition of a Federal crime of 
     terrorism for asset forfeiture under 18 U.S.C. 
     Sec. 981(a)(1)(G).
     Section 121. Penal provisions regarding trafficking in 
         contraband cigarettes or smokeless tobacco
       Section 121 of the conference report is substantively 
     similar to section 123 of the House bill. There is no 
     comparable provision in the Senate amendment. This section of 
     the conference report amends the Contraband Cigarette 
     Trafficking Act (``CCTA,'' 18 U.S.C. Sec. Sec. 2341 et seq.), 
     which makes it unlawful for any person knowingly to ship, 
     possess, sell, distribute or purchase contraband cigarettes. 
     This section amends the CCTA by: (1) extending its provisions 
     to cover contraband smokeless tobacco; (2) reducing the 
     number of cigarettes that trigger application of the CCTA 
     from 60,000 to 10,000; (3) imposing reporting requirements on 
     persons, except for tribal governments, who engage in 
     delivery sales of more than 10,000 cigarettes or 500 single-
     unit cans or packages of smokeless tobacco in a single month; 
     (4) requiring the destruction of cigarettes and smokeless 
     tobacco seized and forfeited under the CCTA; and (5) 
     authorizing State and local governments, and certain persons 
     who hold Federal tobacco permits, to bring causes of action 
     against violators of the CCTA. It also amends section 
     2344(c), the contraband cigarette forfeiture provisions, by 
     adding ``contraband smokeless tobacco'' to items subject to 
     forfeiture and by removing the reference

[[Page H11305]]

     to the Internal Revenue Code, which became outdated after the 
     enactment of the Civil Asset Forfeiture Reform Act of 2000.
     Section 122. Prohibition of narco-terrorism
       Section 122 of the conference report is substantively 
     similar to section 124 of the House bill. There is no 
     comparable provision in the Senate amendment. This section 
     adds new section 1010A to Part A of the Controlled Substance 
     Import and Export Act, (21 U.S.C. Sec. Sec. 951 et seq.), 
     making it a Federal crime to engage in drug trafficking to 
     benefit terrorists. The conference report changes the 
     mandatory minimum penalty from the 20 years provided in the 
     House bill to simply twice the minimum under 21 U.S.C. 
     Sec. 841(b). Finally, the conference report modifies the 
     proof requirements of the House-passed bill to clarify that a 
     person must have knowledge that the person or organization 
     has engaged or engages in terrorist activity or terrorism.
     Section 123. Interfering with the operation of an aircraft
       Section 123 of the conference report is substantively 
     similar to section 125 of the House bill. There is no 
     comparable provision in the Senate amendment. This section 
     amends 18 U.S.C. Sec. 32, which prohibits the destruction of 
     aircraft or aircraft facilities, to address the increasing 
     number of reports to the Federal Aviation Administration of 
     the intentional aiming of lasers into airplane cockpits. The 
     amendment makes it illegal to interfere with or disable a 
     pilot or air navigation facility operator with the intent to 
     endanger the safety of any person or with reckless disregard 
     for the safety of human life.
     Section 124. Sense of Congress relating to lawful political 
         activity
       Section 124 of the conference report is substantively 
     similar to section 126 of the House bill. There is no 
     comparable provision in the Senate amendment. This sense of 
     the Congress articulates that no American citizen should be 
     the target of a criminal investigation solely as a result of 
     that person's lawful political activity or membership in a 
     non-violent political organization. During the many 
     congressional hearings held on the PATRIOT Act, both in open 
     and classified settings, there has been absolutely no 
     evidence adduced that the Department of Justice or the FBI 
     has used the powers conferred by law to investigate anyone 
     based on his or her participation in the political process.
     Section 125. Removal of civil liability barriers that 
         discourage the donation of fire equipment to volunteer 
         fire companies
       Section 125 of the conference report is substantively 
     similar to section 131 of the House bill. There is no 
     comparable provision in the Senate amendment. This section 
     establishes immunity from civil liability (other than for 
     gross negligence or intentional misconduct) for anyone other 
     than a fire equipment manufacturer who donates fire equipment 
     to volunteer fire companies.
     Section 126. Report on data-mining activities
       Section 126 of the conference report is similar to section 
     132 of the House bill. There is no comparable provision in 
     the Senate amendment. This section instructs the Attorney 
     General to report to Congress on Department of Justice use or 
     development of pattern-based data-mining technology.
     Section 127. Sense of Congress
       Section 127 of the conference report is substantively 
     similar to section 133 of the House bill. There is no 
     comparable provision in the Senate amendment. This section is 
     a sense of the Congress that the victims of terrorist attacks 
     should have access to the assets of terrorists.
     Section 128. PATRIOT section 214; authority for disclosure of 
         additional information in connection with orders for pen 
         register and trap and trace authority under FISA
       Section 128 of the conference report is substantively 
     identical to section 6 of the Senate amendment. There is no 
     comparable provision in the House bill. This section 
     requires: (1) an ex-parte order for a pen register or trap 
     and trace device for foreign intelligence purposes to direct 
     the provider, upon the applicant's request, to disclose 
     specified information to the Federal officer using the 
     device; and (2) the Attorney General to fully inform the 
     House and Senate Judiciary Committees regarding the use of 
     such devices.

             TITLE II--TERRORIST DEATH PENALTY ENHANCEMENT

     Section 201. Short title
       The short title is the ``Terrorist Death Penalty 
     Enhancement Act of 2005.'' Section 201 of the conference 
     report is identical to section 201 of the House bill. There 
     is no comparable provision in the Senate amendment.


            Subtitle A--Terrorist Penalties Enhancement Act

     Section 211. Death penalty procedures for certain air piracy 
         cases occurring before enactment of the Federal Death 
         Penalty Act of 1994
       This section is the same as section 213 of the House bill, 
     except for the addition of a severability clause. There is no 
     comparable provision in the Senate amendment. Section 211 of 
     the conference report provides procedures for death penalty 
     prosecutions for air piracy crimes occurring before the 1994 
     Federal Death Penalty Act, provided that the government 
     establishes the existence of one or more factors under former 
     49 U.S.C. Sec. 46503(c)(2), or its predecessor, and that the 
     defendant has not established by a preponderance of the 
     evidence the existence of any of the factors set forth in 
     former 49 U.S.C. Sec. 46503(c)(1), or its predecessor. This 
     section makes the 1994 procedures applicable to post-1974, 
     and pre-1994 air piracy murder cases.
       Section 211 of the conference report would permit the 
     imposition of the death penalty upon an individual convicted 
     of air piracy offenses resulting in death where those 
     offenses occurred after enactment of the Antihijacking Act of 
     1974 but before the enactment of the Federal Death Penalty 
     Act of 1994. This provision would cover a small, but 
     important category of defendants, including those responsible 
     for the December 1984 hijacking of Kuwait Airways flight 221 
     and the murder of two American United States Agency for 
     International Development employees, William Stanford and 
     Charles Hegna; the June 1985 hijacking of TWA flight 847 and 
     the murder of Navy diver Robert Stethem; the November 1985 
     hijacking of Egyptair flight 648 and the murder of American 
     servicewoman Scarlett Rogenkamp as well as 56 other 
     passengers; and the September 1986 hijacking of Pan Am flight 
     73 and the murder of American citizens Rajesh Kumar and 
     Surendra Patel, as well as at least 19 other passengers and 
     crew.
       Section 211 is important to reaffirm the intent of Congress 
     to have available the ultimate penalty to use against 
     aircraft hijackers whose criminal actions result in death. In 
     1974, Congress enacted the Antihijacking Act, making the 
     crime of air piracy the one and only crime under Federal law 
     for which Congress passed comprehensive procedures, in 
     response to Furman v. Georgia, 408 U.S. 238 (1972), to ensure 
     that the death penalty could be constitutionally enforced. 
     Over the years after the passage of the Antihijacking Act of 
     1974, the crime of air piracy was repeatedly cited by Members 
     of Congress and the Executive Branch as an example of a crime 
     for which Congress had enacted the necessary constitutional 
     provisions to enforce the death penalty. In 1994, in an 
     effort to make the death penalty widely available for 
     numerous Federal offenses, and to enact uniform procedures to 
     apply to all Federal capital offenses, Congress passed the 
     Federal Death Penalty Act of 1994 (``FDPA''), explicitly 
     including air piracy procedures among the list of crimes to 
     which it applied, at the same time repealing the former death 
     penalty procedures of the Antihijacking Act of 1974.
       The problem with this legal development is that there is a 
     perceived gap in legislative intent to maintain the option of 
     a death penalty for those who committed air piracy resulting 
     in death before enactment of the FDPA. On September 29, 2001, 
     the United States obtained custody of Zaid Hassan Abd Latif 
     Safarini, the operational leader of the deadly attempted 
     hijacking of Pan Am flight 73, a crime which occurred on 
     September 5, 1986, in Karachi, Pakistan, and which resulted 
     in the death of at least 20 people, including two United 
     States citizens, and the injury of more than 100 others. 
     Safarini personally executed the first United States citizen 
     and after a 16-hour stand-off, he and his fellow hijackers 
     opened fire on approximately 380 passengers and crew on board 
     Pan Am 73, attempting to kill all of them with grenades and 
     assault rifles. Safarini and his co-defendants had been 
     indicted by a grand jury in the District of Columbia in 1991, 
     and after his capture in 2001, the prosecutors filed papers 
     stating the government's intention to seek the death penalty 
     against Safarini. The district court, however, ruled that the 
     government could not seek the death penalty in this case or, 
     by implication, in any other air piracy case from the pre-
     FDPA period, essentially because Congress had not made clear 
     which procedures should apply to such a prosecution. In its 
     ruling, the court noted that, at the time it passed the FDPA 
     in 1994, Congress did not state any intention as to whether 
     the new capital sentencing procedures should be applied to 
     air piracy offenses occurring before enactment of the FDPA. A 
     further complication exists, in that there are two provisions 
     of the Antihijacking Act of 1974 that, if taken away from 
     pre-FDPA air piracy defendants, could pose ex post facto 
     concerns in light of Ring v. Arizona, 536 U.S. 584 (2002). 
     Safarini has since pled guilty to the charged offenses and 
     was sentenced, pursuant to a plea agreement, to three life 
     terms plus twenty-five years imprisonment.
       Section 211 addresses the issues identified by the district 
     court in the Safarini case by explicitly stating that 
     Congress intends for the provisions of the FDPA to apply to 
     this category of defendants, while also explicitly preserving 
     for such defendants the two provisions of the Antihijacking 
     Act to which they are arguably constitutionally entitled, 
     concerning the statutory aggravating and mitigating 
     circumstances set forth in the Antihijacking Act.
       This provision is particularly important for several other 
     reasons. In the absence of a death penalty that could be 
     implemented for pre-FDPA hijacking offenses resulting in 
     death that also occurred before the effective date of the 
     Sentencing Guidelines on November 1, 1987, the maximum 
     penalty available would be life imprisonment. Under the pre-
     Sentencing Guidelines structure, even prisoners sentenced to 
     life imprisonment were eligible for a parole hearing after 
     serving only ten years. While there is a split in the Circuit 
     Courts of Appeals as to whether a sentencing judge can impose 
     a sentence that

     could avert the 10-year parole hearing requirement, the 
     current position of the Bureau of Prisons is that a prisoner 
     is eligible for a parole hearing after serving ten years of a 
     life sentence. Even if parole is denied on that first 
     occasion, such prisoners are entitled to have regularly 
     scheduled parole hearings every two years thereafter. 
     Moreover, in addition to parole eligibility after ten years, 
     the old sentencing and parole laws incorporated a presumption 
     that even persons sentenced to life imprisonment would be 
     released after no more than 30 years.
       In the context of the individuals responsible for the 
     hijacking incidents described above, most of the perpetrators 
     were no older than in their twenties when they committed 
     their crimes. The imposition of a pre-Guidelines sentence of 
     life imprisonment for these defendants means that many, if 
     not all of them, could be expected to be released from prison 
     well within their lifetime. Given the gravity of these 
     offenses, coupled with the longstanding Congressional intent 
     to have a death penalty available for the offense of air 
     piracy resulting in death, such a result would be at odds 
     with the clear directive of Congress.
       Section 211 includes a severability clause that would 
     establish that if any provision of the Act or the application 
     thereof to any person or circumstance is held invalid by a 
     court of law, the remainder of Section 211 and the 
     application of such provision to other persons or 
     circumstances shall not be affected by that declaration of 
     invalidity. The inclusion of this severability clause means 
     that the unaffected portions of the law would remain 
     operable.
     Section 212. Postrelease supervision of terrorists
       This section is substantively similar to section 215 of the 
     House bill. There is no comparable provision in the Senate 
     amendment. Section 212 of the conference report expands the 
     scope of the individuals covered by the post-release 
     supervision provisions for terrorists.


              Subtitle B--Federal Death Penalty Procedures

     Section 221. Elimination of procedures applicable only to 
         certain Controlled Substances Act cases
       This section retains a portion of section 231 of the House 
     bill. There is no comparable provision in the Senate 
     amendment. The conference report eliminates duplicative death 
     procedures under title 21 of the United States Code, and 
     consolidates procedures governing all Federal death penalty 
     prosecutions in existing title 18 of the United States Code, 
     thereby eliminating confusing requirements that trial courts 
     provide two separate sets of jury instructions in certain 
     Federal death penalty prosecutions.
     Section 222. Counsel for financially unable defendants
       Section 222 of the conference report is a new provision. 
     This section transfers existing statutes from the death 
     penalty procedures contained in title 21 of the United States 
     Code to the death penalty procedures in title 18 of the 
     United States Code. This section requires that any death-
     penalty eligible defendant who is or becomes financially 
     unable to obtain adequate representation or investigative, 
     expert, or other reasonably necessary services will be 
     entitled to the appointment of one or more attorneys and the 
     furnishing of such other services.

     TITLE III--REDUCING CRIME AND TERRORISM AT AMERICA'S SEAPORTS

     Section 301. Short title
       This section designates the short title as the ``Reducing 
     Crime and Terrorism at America's Seaports Act of 2005.'' 
     Section 301 of the conference report is identical to section 
     301 of the House bill. There is no comparable provision in 
     the Senate amendment, but this section is similar to S. 378, 
     the ``Reducing Crime and Terrorism at America's Seaports Act 
     of 2005,'' which was reported favorably by the Senate 
     Committee on the Judiciary on April 21, 2005.
     Section 302. Entry by false pretenses to any seaport
       Section 302 of the conference report is substantively 
     similar to section 302 of the House bill and the parallel 
     section in S. 378. There is no comparable provision in the 
     Senate amendment. According to the Report of the Interagency 
     Commission on Crime and Security at U.S. Seaports 
     (hereinafter ``Interagency Commission Report''), ``[c]ontrol 
     of access to the seaport or sensitive areas within the 
     seaport is often lacking.'' Such unauthorized access is 
     especially problematic, because inappropriate controls may 
     result in the theft of cargo and, more dangerously, 
     undetected admission of terrorists. In addition to 
     establishing appropriate physical, procedural, and personnel 
     security for seaports, it is important that U.S. criminal law 
     adequately reflect the seriousness of the offense. This 
     section clarifies that 18 U.S.C. Sec. 1036 (fraudulent access 
     to transport facilities) includes seaports and waterfronts 
     within its scope, and increases the penalties for violating 
     these provisions from a maximum of 5 years to 10 years.
     Section 303. Criminal sanctions for failure to heave to, 
         obstruction of boarding, or providing false information
       Section 303 of the conference report is substantively 
     similar to section 303 of the House bill and the parallel 
     section in S. 378. A core function of the United States Coast 
     Guard is law enforcement at sea, especially in the aftermath 
     of the tragic events of September 11, 2001. While the Coast 
     Guard has authority to use whatever force is reasonably 
     necessary to require a vessel to stop or be boarded, 
     ``refusal to stop,'' by itself, is not currently a crime. 
     This section amends title 18 of the United States Code to 
     make it a crime: (1) for a vessel operator knowingly to fail 
     to slow or stop a ship once ordered to do so by a Federal law 
     enforcement officer; (2) for any person on board a vessel to 
     impede boarding or other law enforcement action authorized by 
     Federal law; or (3) for any person on board a vessel to 
     provide false information to a Federal law enforcement 
     officer. Any violation of this section will be punishable by 
     a fine and/or imprisonment for a maximum term of 5 years.
     Section 304. Criminal sanctions for violence against maritime 
         navigation, placement of destructive devices
       Section 304 of the conference report is substantively 
     similar to section 305 of the House bill, and excludes the 
     malicious dumping provisions contained in S. 378. The Coast 
     Guard maintains over 50,000 navigational aids on more than 
     25,000 miles of waterways. These aids, which are relied upon 
     by all commercial, military, and recreational mariners, are 
     essential for safe navigation and, therefore, are inviting 
     targets for terrorists. To deter any such intentional 
     interference, this section amends 18 U.S.C. Sec. 2280(a) 
     (violence against maritime navigation) to make it a crime to 
     intentionally damage or tamper with any maritime navigational 
     aid maintained by the Coast Guard or under its authority, if 
     such act endangers the safe navigation of a ship. In 
     addition, this section amends title 18 of the United States 
     Code to make it a crime to knowingly place in waters any 
     device that is likely to damage a vessel or its cargo, 
     interfere with a vessel's safe navigation, or interfere with 
     maritime commerce. Any violation of this provision will be 
     punishable by a fine and/or a maximum term of imprisonment 
     for life, and if death results, an offense could be 
     punishable by a sentence of death.
     Section 305. Transportation of dangerous materials and 
         terrorists
       Section 305 of the conference report is substantively 
     similar to section 306 of the House bill and the parallel 
     provision in S. 378, but adopts the intent requirements as 
     specified in S. 378. The section makes it a crime to 
     knowingly and intentionally transport aboard any vessel an 
     explosive, biological agent, chemical weapon, or radioactive 
     or nuclear materials, knowing that the item is intended to be 
     used to commit a terrorist act. Any violation of this 
     provision will be punishable by a fine and a maximum prison 
     term of life and, if death results, the offense could be 
     punished by a sentence of death.
     Section 306. Destruction of, or interference with, vessels or 
         maritime facilities
       Section 306 of the conference report is substantively 
     similar to section 307 of the House bill and the parallel 
     provision in S. 378. This section makes it a crime to: (1) 
     damage or destroy a vessel or its parts, a maritime facility, 
     or any apparatus used to store, load or unload cargo and 
     passengers; (2) perform an act of violence against or 
     incapacitate any individual on a vessel, or at or near a 
     facility; or (3) knowingly communicate false information that 
     endangers the safety of a vessel. Any violation of this 
     section (including attempts and conspiracies) will be 
     punished by a fine and/or imprisonment for a maximum of 20 
     years; if death results, the offense could be punished by 
     a sentence of death. If an individual threatens to carry 
     out the above-described offense, and has the apparent will 
     and determination to carry out the threat, that threat is 
     punishable by a fine and/or imprisonment for a maximum of 
     5 years. The offender also will be liable for all costs 
     incurred as a result of the threat. This section also 
     subjects any individual who knowingly conveys false 
     information about the offenses described above (or other 
     named offenses) to a civil penalty up to $5,000. In 
     addition, knowingly conveying false information concerning 
     an attempted violation of this section or of chapter 11 of 
     title 18 will be punishable by a maximum of 5 years 
     imprisonment. This section harmonizes the somewhat 
     outdated maritime provisions with the existing criminal 
     sanctions for destruction or interference with an aircraft 
     or aircraft facilities in 18 U.S.C. Sec. Sec. 32, 34, and 
     35.
     Section 307. Theft of interstate or foreign shipments or 
         vessels
       This section is similar to section 308 of the House bill 
     and the parallel provision in S. 378, except the conference 
     report does not maintain the increased criminal penalties 
     that were included in the House bill. The Interagency 
     Commission Report found that certain existing statutes, 
     regulations, and sentencing guidelines do not provide 
     sufficient sanctions to deter criminal or civil violations 
     related to a range of offenses, including theft of interstate 
     or foreign shipments. In an effort to close statutory gaps 
     and increase the criminal penalty, this section expands the 
     scope of section 18 U.S.C. Sec. 659 (theft of interstate or 
     foreign shipments) to include theft of goods from additional 
     transportation facilities or instruments, including trailers, 
     cargo containers, and warehouses. In addition, the section 
     increases the penalties for theft of goods from a maximum of 
     10 years to a maximum of 15 years imprisonment, and for 
     amounts less than $1000, the punishment will be increased 
     from a maximum of 1 year to a maximum of 3 years 
     imprisonment. The section clarifies that, under

[[Page H11307]]

     18 U.S.C. Sec. 659, the determination of whether goods are 
     ``moving as an interstate or foreign shipment'' is made by 
     considering the entire cargo route, regardless of any 
     temporary stop between the point of origin and final 
     destination. Finally, the section requires an annual report 
     of law enforcement activities relating to cargo theft and 
     requires collection and reporting by the FBI of cargo theft 
     crimes.
     Section 308. Stowaways on vessels or aircraft
       Section 308 of the conference report is similar to section 
     310 of the House bill. It is similar to the parallel 
     provision in S. 378, though the conference report includes a 
     death penalty that was not part of the Senate amendment. The 
     section increases the maximum penalty for a violation of 18 
     U.S.C. Sec. 2199 (stowaways on vessels or aircraft) from 1 
     year to 5 years imprisonment. If the act is committed with 
     the intent to commit serious bodily injury and serious bodily 
     injury occurs, it will be punishable by a fine and a maximum 
     of 20 years imprisonment. If death results, it will be 
     punishable by death or life imprisonment.
     Section 309. Bribery affecting port security
       This section is substantively similar to section 311 of the 
     House bill and the parallel provision of S. 378. Section 309 
     of the conference report makes it a crime to knowingly, and 
     with the intent to commit international or domestic 
     terrorism, bribe a public official to affect port security; 
     or to receive a bribe in return for being influenced in 
     public duties affecting port security, knowing that such 
     influence will be used to commit, or plan to commit, an act 
     of terrorism. A violation of this section is punishable by a 
     maximum term of 15 years imprisonment.
     Section 310. Penalties for smuggling goods into the United 
         States
       Section 310 of the conference report is substantively 
     identical to section 312 of the House bill. There is no 
     comparable provision in the Senate amendment. This section 
     increases the penalty for violations of 18 U.S.C. Sec. 545 
     (smuggling) from imprisonment for not more than 5 years to 
     imprisonment for not more than 20 years.
     Section 311. Smuggling goods from the United States
       Section 311 of the conference report is substantively 
     identical to section 313 of the House bill. There is no 
     comparable provision in the Senate amendment. This section 
     creates a new criminal offense for illegally smuggling goods 
     from the United States and establishes a maximum penalty of 
     10 years imprisonment.

                TITLE IV--COMBATING TERRORISM FINANCING

     Section 401. Short title
       The short title is ``Combating Terrorism Financing Act of 
     2005.'' Section 401 of the conference report is identical to 
     section 401 of the House bill. There is no comparable 
     provision in the Senate amendment.
     Section 402. Increased penalties for terrorism financing
       Section 402 of the conference report is substantively 
     similar to section 402 of the House bill. There is no 
     comparable provision in the Senate amendment. Currently, 
     penalties for violating the International Emergency Economic 
     Powers Act (IEEPA) are not commensurate with terrorist 
     financing violations. This section amends section 206 of 
     IEEPA (50 U.S.C. Sec. 1705) to increase the civil penalty 
     from $10,000 to $50,000 per violation and to increase the 
     criminal penalty from 10 years imprisonment to 20 years 
     imprisonment with the maximum criminal fine remaining the 
     same.
     Section 403. Terrorism-related specified activities for money 
         laundering
       Section 403 of the conference report is substantively 
     similar to section 403 of the House bill. There is no 
     comparable provision in the Senate amendment. Under current 
     law, a number of activities that terrorist financiers 
     undertake are not predicates for purposes of the Federal 
     money laundering statute, 18 U.S.C. Sec. 1956. Key among 
     those activities is operating an illegal money 
     transmitting business, including ``hawala'' networks, 
     which terrorists and their sympathizers often use to 
     transfer funds to terrorist organizations abroad. This 
     section adds three terrorism-related provisions to the 
     list of specified unlawful activities that serve as 
     predicates for the money laundering statute. Subsection(a) 
     adds as a RICO predicate the offense in 18 U.S.C. 
     Sec. 1960 (relating to illegal money transmitting 
     businesses), which has the effect of making this offense a 
     money laundering predicate through the cross-reference in 
     18 U.S.C. Sec. 1956(c)(7)(A). Subsection(b) directly adds 
     as money laundering predicates the new terrorist-financing 
     offense in 18 U.S.C. Sec. 2339C.
     Sec. 404. Assets of persons committing terrorist acts against 
         foreign countries or international organizations
       Section 404 of the conference report is substantively 
     similar to section 404 of the House bill. There is no 
     comparable provision in the Senate amendment. The USA PATRIOT 
     Act enacted a new forfeiture provision codified at 18 U.S.C. 
     Sec. 981(a)(1)(G) pertaining to the assets of any person 
     planning or perpetrating an act of terrorism against the 
     United States. Section 404 of the conference report adds a 
     parallel provision pertaining to the assets of any person 
     planning or perpetrating an act of terrorism against a 
     foreign state or international organization. Where the 
     property sought for forfeiture is located outside the United 
     States, an act in furtherance of planning or perpetrating the 
     terrorist act must have occurred within the jurisdiction of 
     the United States.
     Sec. 405. Money laundering through hawalas
       Section 405 of the conference report is substantively 
     similar to section 405 of the House bill. There is no 
     comparable provision in the Senate amendment. This section 
     outlaws any ``dependent transactions'' relating to a money 
     laundering transaction. Terrorist financing and money 
     laundering can be mutually exclusive, but many times they go 
     hand-in-hand. As reported in the National Money Laundering 
     Strategy (NMLS), ``both depend on the lack of transparency 
     and vigilance in the financial system. Money laundering 
     requires the existence of an underlying crime, while 
     terrorist financing does not. Methods for raising funds to 
     support terrorist activities may be legal or illegal. Also, 
     the objective of money laundering investigations is 
     prosecution and forfeiture. Terrorist financing 
     investigations share these objectives; however, the ultimate 
     goal is to identify, disrupt, and cut off the flow of funds 
     to terrorists, whether or not the investigation results in 
     prosecutions.''
       Many steps have been taken by Congress, law enforcement, 
     and the private sector to address the issue of terrorist 
     financing. The USA PATRIOT Act codified money laundering 
     statutes and provided authority improving the flow of 
     financial information regarding terrorist financing. The Bank 
     Secrecy Act has been amended to require financial 
     institutions to report suspicious activities. Enforcement and 
     enhanced regulations make it more difficult for terrorist 
     organizations to compromise U.S. financial institutions. 
     However, these terrorists continue to seek the path of least 
     resistance, utilizing alternative financing systems and 
     foreign banking systems that lack sufficient standards and 
     regulations.
       Alternative remittance systems are utilized by terrorists 
     to move and launder large amounts of money around the globe 
     quickly and secretly. These remittance systems, also referred 
     to as ``hawala'' networks, are used throughout the world, 
     including the Middle East, Europe, North America and South 
     Asia. These systems are desirable to criminals and non-
     criminals alike because of the anonymity, low cost, 
     efficiency, and access to underdeveloped regions. The United 
     States has taken steps to combat the ``hawala'' networks by 
     requiring all money transmitters, informal or formal, to 
     register as money services businesses.
       Under current Federal law, a financial transaction 
     constitutes a money laundering offense only if the funds 
     involved in the transaction represent the proceeds of some 
     criminal offense. See 18 U.S.C. Sec. 1956(a)(1) (``represents 
     the proceeds of some form of unlawful activity''); and 18 
     U.S.C. Sec. 1957(f)(2) (``property constituting, or derived 
     from, proceeds obtained from a criminal offense''). There is 
     some uncertainty, however, as to whether the ``proceeds 
     element'' is satisfied with regard to each transaction in a 
     money laundering scheme that involves two or more 
     transactions conducted in parallel, only one of which 
     directly makes use of the proceeds from unlawful activity. 
     For example, consider the following transaction: A sends drug 
     proceeds to B, who deposits the money in Bank Account 1. 
     Simultaneously or subsequently, B takes an equal amount of 
     money from Bank Account 2 and sends it to A, or to a person 
     designated by A. The first transaction from A to B clearly 
     satisfies the proceeds element of the money laundering 
     statute, but there is some question as to whether the second 
     transaction--the one that involves only funds withdrawn from 
     Bank Account 2 does so as well. The question has become 
     increasingly important because such parallel transactions are 
     the technique used to launder money through the Black Market 
     Peso Exchange and ``hawala'' network. Section 405 of the 
     conference report is intended to remove all uncertainty on 
     this point by providing that all constituent parts of a set 
     of parallel or dependent transactions involve criminal 
     proceeds if one such transaction does so. The conference 
     report modifies the hawala provision to require that it be 
     part of plan or arrangement.
     Sec 406. Technical and conforming amendments relating to the 
         USA PATRIOT Act
       Section 406 of the conference report is substantively 
     similar to section 406 of the House bill. There is no 
     comparable provision in the Senate amendment. This section 
     makes a number of corrections relating to provisions of the 
     USA PATRIOT Act, mostly affecting money laundering or asset 
     forfeiture. While essentially technical in nature, these 
     corrections are critical because typographical and other 
     errors in the USA PATRIOT Act provisions are preventing 
     prosecutors from fully utilizing that Act's tools. For 
     example, certain new forfeiture authorities enacted by that 
     Act refer to a nonexistent statute, 31 U.S.C. Sec. 5333, 
     where 31 U.S.C. Sec. 5331 is intended.
       Subsection (a) makes technical corrections to a number of 
     provisions in the USA PATRIOT Act. Subsection (b) codifies 
     section 316(a)-(c) of that Act as 18 U.S.C. Sec. 987. 
     Subsection (c) adds explicit language covering 
     conspiracies to carry out two offenses likely to be 
     committed by terrorists (18 U.S.C. Sec. Sec. 33(a) and 
     1366), thereby conforming these provisions to various 
     crimes modified by section 811 of the USA PATRIOT Act, 
     which added conspiracy language to other terrorism 
     offense.

[[Page H11308]]

     Section 407. Cross reference correction
       Section 407 of the conference report is substantively 
     identical to section 408 of the House bill. There is no 
     comparable provision in the Senate amendment. This section 
     corrects a cross-reference, replacing the ``National 
     Intelligence Reform Act of 2004'' with the correct title, the 
     ``Intelligence Reform and Terrorism Prevention Act of 2004.''
     Section 408. Amendment to amendatory language
       Section 408 of the conference report is substantively 
     identical to section 409 of the House bill. There is no 
     comparable provision in the Senate amendment. This section 
     amends an incorrect citation.
     Section 409. Designation of additional money laundering 
         predicate
       Section 409 of the conference report is substantively 
     identical to section 410 of the House bill. There is no 
     comparable provision in the Senate amendment. This section 
     adds 18 U.S.C. Sec. 2339D (relating to receiving military-
     type training from a foreign terrorist organization) as a 
     money laundering predicate.

                         TITLE V--MISCELLANEOUS

     Section 501. Residence of United States Attorneys and 
         Assistant United States Attorneys
       Section 501 is a new section and addresses an unintentional 
     effect of the residency requirement for United States 
     Attorneys and Assistant United States Attorneys. Section 501 
     of the conference report provides that the Attorney General 
     can order that residency requirements be waived when a United 
     States Attorney or Assistant United States Attorney is 
     assigned dual or additional responsibilities. This provision 
     will enable activities such as participation by United States 
     Attorneys in legal activities in Iraq.
     Section 502. Interim appointment of United States Attorneys
       Section 502 is a new section and addresses an inconsistency 
     in the appointment process of United States Attorneys.
     Section 503. Secretary of Homeland Security in Presidential 
         line of succession
       Section 503 of the conference report is a new section and 
     fills a gap in the Presidential line of succession by 
     including the Secretary of Homeland Security.
     Section 504. Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms to the 
         Department of Justice
       Section 504 of the conference report is a new section. This 
     provision modifies the appointment procedure for the Director 
     of the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms by providing 
     that the President, with the advice and consent of the 
     Senate, shall appoint the Director.
     Section 505. Qualifications of United States Marshals
       Section 505 of the conference report is a new section. This 
     section clarifies the qualifications individuals should have 
     before joining the United States Marshals.
     Section 506. Department of Justice intelligence matters
       Section 506 is a new section that establishes a National 
     Security Division (NSD) within the DOJ, headed by an 
     Assistant Attorney General for National Security (AAGNS). 
     This section is consistent with a recommendation by the WMD 
     Commission that the ``Department of Justice's primary 
     national security elements--the Office of Intelligence Policy 
     and Review, and the Counterterrorism and Counterespionage 
     sections--should be placed under a new Assistant Attorney 
     General for National Security.'' A version of this section 
     was included in S. 1803, the ``Intelligence Reauthorization 
     bill for fiscal year 2006,'' which was reported favorably by 
     the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence on September 29, 
     2005.
     Section 507. Review by Attorney General
       Section 507 is a new section. It modifies the process by 
     which States can opt in to the expedited habeas procedures 
     for capital cases under chapter 154 of title 28 of the United 
     States Code by shifting responsibility to the Attorney 
     General for certifying when a State has qualified. This 
     section also allows for de novo review in the U.S. Court of 
     Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit of the Attorney 
     General's certification. It relaxes the time constraints 
     imposed on judges for deciding habeas cases under chapter 
     154. This section also clarifies when a habeas proceeding is 
     `pending' for purposes of 28 U.S.C. 2251, which controls the 
     circumstances under which a federal court hearing a habeas 
     petition may stay a State court action. Overruling McFarland 
     v. Scott, 512 U.S. 849 (1994), this section provides that a 
     habeas proceeding is not `pending' until the habeas 
     application itself is filed. For prisoners who have applied 
     for counsel pursuant to 18 U.S.C. 3599(a)(2), there is a 
     limited exception allowing the court to stay execution of a 
     death sentence until after the attorney has been appointed or 
     the application withdrawn or denied.

                        TITLE VI--SECRET SERVICE

     Section 601. Short title
       The short title is ``Secret Service Authorization and 
     Technical Modification Act of 2005.'' Section 601 of the 
     conference report is new.
     Section 602. Interference with national special security 
         events
       Section 602 of the conference report is a new section. 18 
     U.S.C. Sec. 1752 authorizes the Secret Service to charge 
     individuals who breach established security perimeters or 
     engage in other disruptive or potentially dangerous conduct 
     at National Special Security Events (NSSEs) if a Secret 
     Service protectee is attending the designated event. Section 
     602 of the conference report expands 18 U.S.C. Sec. 1752 to 
     criminalize such security breaches at NSSEs that occur when 
     the Secret Service protectee is not in attendance. 
     Additionally, it doubles the statutory penalties (from 6 
     months to 1 year) for violations of Sec. 1752, to make the 
     penalty consistent with the prescribed penalty under 18 
     U.S.C. Sec. 3056(d) (interference with Secret Service law 
     enforcement personnel generally). The conference report makes 
     punishable by up to 10 years the thwarting of security 
     procedures by individuals in possession of dangerous or 
     deadly weapons.
     Section 603. False credentials to national special security 
         events
       Section 603 of the conference report is a new section. This 
     section amends 18 U.S.C. Sec. 1028 to make it a Federal crime 
     to knowingly produce, possess, or transfer a false 
     identification document that could be used to gain unlawful 
     and unauthorized access to any restricted area of a building 
     or grounds in conjunction with a NSSE. Such actions were a 
     problem during the 2002 Winter Olympics, and the conference 
     report will allow for Federal prosecution against such 
     criminal violations at future NSSEs.
     Section 604. Forensic and investigative support of missing 
         and exploited children cases
       Section 604 of the conference report is a new section. On 
     April 30, 2003, President Bush signed into law the Child 
     Abduction Prevention Act (Pub. Law No. 108-21), which 
     authorizes the Secret Service to provide, upon request, 
     forensic and investigative assistance to the National Center 
     for Missing and Exploited Children or local law enforcement 
     agencies. The current statute states that ``officers and 
     agents'' of the Secret Service may provide this assistance. 
     Section 604 of the conference report clarifies that forensic 
     and other civilian personnel, such as fingerprint 
     specialists, polygraph examiners, and handwriting analysts, 
     are authorized to provide such assistance.
     Section 605. The uniformed division, United States Secret 
         Service
       Section 605 of the conference report is a new section. This 
     section places all authorities of the Uniformed Division, 
     which are currently authorized under title 3, in a newly 
     created 18 U.S.C. Sec. 3056A, following the core authorizing 
     statute of the Secret Service (18 U.S.C. Sec. 3056), thereby 
     organizing the Uniformed Division under title 18 of the 
     United States Code with other Federal law enforcement 
     agencies.
     Section 606. Savings provisions
       Section 606 of the conference report is a new section. This 
     section makes clear that the transfer of the Uniformed 
     Division from title 3 of the United States Code to title 18 
     of the United States Code shall have no impact on the 
     retirement benefits of current employees or annuitants and 
     others necessary to reimburse State and local government 
     organizations for support provided in connection with a visit 
     of a foreign government official.
     Section 607. Maintenance as distinct entity
       Section 607 of the conference report is a new section. This 
     section provides a clear operational and organizational 
     framework for the Secret Service that maintains the Secret 
     Service as a distinct component of the Department of Homeland 
     Security while providing the Service with necessary 
     operational latitude. It allows for the Director of the 
     Secret Service to report directly to the Secretary of the 
     Department of Homeland Security. Finally, the conference 
     report provides that the assets, agents, officers, and other 
     personnel of the Secret Service shall remain at all times 
     under the command and control of the Director.
     Section 608. Exemptions from the Federal Advisory Committee 
         Act
       Section 608 of the conference report is a new section. This 
     section exempts the functions of the Secret Service's 
     Electronic Crime Task Forces and the candidate protection 
     committee from the Federal Advisory Committee Act (5 U.S.C. 
     App. 2), which imposes a series of requirements on committees 
     established or utilized by Federal agencies to provide advice 
     or recommendations to any agency or Federal officer. 
     Committees that wholly consist of full-time officers or 
     employees of the Federal Government are not covered by the 
     Act. If the advisory committee is subject to the Act, it 
     must, among other requirements, open its meetings to the 
     public, publish notice of meetings in the Federal Register, 
     and make its minutes available to the public. There are 
     current exemptions from these requirements, such as 
     committees established by the CIA and the Federal Reserve. 
     This amendment eliminates any doubt and confirms that the Act 
     does not apply to the Electronic Crime Task Forces or the 
     candidate protection committee.

         TITLE VII--COMBAT METHAMPHETAMINE EPIDEMIC ACT OF 2005

     Section 701. Short title
       The short title is the ``Combat Methamphetamine Epidemic 
     Act of 2005.'' Section 701 of the conference report is a new 
     section.

[[Page H11309]]

         Subtitle A--Domestic Regulation of Precursor Chemicals

     Section 711. Scheduled listed chemical products; restrictions 
         on sale quantity, behind-the counter access, and other 
         safeguards
       This section of the conference report is new. Section 711 
     reclassifies pseudoephedrine, phenylpropanolamine, and 
     ephedrine as Schedule Listed Chemicals; reduces the Federal 
     pertransaction sales limit for SLCs from 9 grams to 3.6 grams 
     (the amount recently proposed by the Administration); 
     requires behind-the-counter storage or locked cabinet storage 
     of SLCs; requires that regulated sellers (retail distributors 
     and pharmacies) maintain a written log of purchases; 
     restricts monthly sales to no more than 9.0 grams per 
     purchaser; imposes similar requirements on Internet sellers 
     and mobile retail vendors; and requires each regulated seller 
     to submit a certification that it is in compliance with these 
     requirements, that its employees have been trained as to 
     these requirements, and that records relating to such 
     training are maintained at the retailers location. Such 
     certifications are to be made available by the Attorney 
     General to State and local law enforcement.
     Section 712. Regulated transactions
       This section of the conference report is new and repeals 
     the Federal ``blister pack'' exemption, and clarifies the law 
     to include derivatives of each of these chemicals. It makes 
     conforming amendments to the current law, to accommodate the 
     new sales restrictions, and makes another technical 
     correction to make it clear that these sales limitations 
     apply to drug combinations containing derivatives of 
     pseudoephedrine, ephedrine, or phenylpropanolamine.
     Section 713. Authority to establish production quotas
       This section of the conference report is new and extends 
     the Attorney General's existing authority to set production 
     quotas for certain controlled substances (see 21 U.S.C. 
     Sec. 826) to pseudoephedrine, ephedrine, and 
     phenylpropanolamine. Currently, domestic production of these 
     chemicals is not very high, as most of our country's supply 
     is imported. With the adoption of the import quotas in 
     section 715 of this Act (see below), however, the Attorney 
     General would require corresponding authority within the U.S. 
     if domestic production were to increase. Current law (as 
     amended) would allow manufacturers to apply for increases in 
     their production quotas (see 21 U.S.C. Sec. 826(e)).
     Section 714. Penalties; authority for manufacturing; quota
       This section of the conference report is new and expands 
     the existing penalty for illegal production beyond 
     established quotas (see 21 U.S.C. Sec. 842(b)) to take into 
     account the Attorney General's new authority to set quotas 
     for methamphetamine precursors.
     Section 715. Restrictions on importation; authority to permit 
         imports for medical, scientific, or other legitimate 
         purposes
       Section 715 of the conference report is a new provision and 
     extends the Attorney General's existing authority to set 
     import quotas for controlled substances (see 21 U.S.C. 
     Sec. 952) to pseudoephedrine, ephedrine, and 
     phenylpropanolamine. This section allows registered importers 
     to apply for temporary or permanent increases in a quota to 
     meet legitimate needs. The. Attorney General is required to 
     act on all such applications within 60 days.
     Section 716. Notice of importation or exportation; approval 
         of sale or transfer by importer or exporter
       Section 716 of the conference report is new and closes a 
     loophole in the current regulatory system for imports and 
     exports of precursor chemicals for methamphetamine and other 
     synthetic drugs. Under current law, a company that wants to 
     import or export pseudoephedrine or another precursor 
     chemical must either: (1) Notify the Department of Justice 15 
     days in advance of the import or export; or (2) be a company 
     that has previously imported or exported a precursor and is 
     proposing to sell the chemicals to a customer with whom the 
     company has previously dealt. (See 21 U.S.C. Sec. 971(a), 
     (b).)
       A problem can arise, however, when the sale that the 
     importer or exporter originally planned falls through. When 
     this happens, the importer or exporter must quickly find a 
     new buyer for the chemicals on what is called the ``spot 
     market''--a wholesale market. Sellers are often under 
     pressure to find a buyer in a short amount of time, meaning 
     that they may be tempted to entertain bids from companies 
     without a strong record of preventing diversion. More 
     importantly, the Department of Justice has no opportunity to 
     review such transactions in advance and suspend them if there 
     is a danger of diversion to illegal drug production.
       This section extends the current reporting requirements--as 
     well as the current exemption for regular importers and 
     customers--to post-import or export transactions. If an 
     importer or exporter were required to file an initial advance 
     notice with the Department of Justice 15 days before the 
     shipment of chemicals, and the originally planned sale fell 
     through, the importer or exporter would be required to file a 
     second advance notice with DOJ identifying the new proposed 
     purchaser. DOJ would then have 15 days to review the new 
     transaction and decide whether it presents enough of a risk 
     of diversion to warrant suspension. As is the case under 
     existing law, a suspension can be appealed through an 
     administrative process. (See 21 U.S.C. Sec. 971(c)(2)
       If, however, the new proposed purchaser qualifies as a 
     ``regular'' customer under existing law, the importer or 
     exporter would not be required to file a second advance 
     notice. (Note that under current law, DOJ does receive a 
     record of these transactions after the fact, see 21 U.S.C. 
     Sec. 971(b)(I)).
     Section 717. Enforcement of restrictions on importation and 
         of requirement of notice of transfer
       This section of the conference report is new and makes a 
     conforming amendment to current law to extend existing 
     penalties for illegal imports or exports to the new 
     regulatory requirements added by sections 715 and 716 of 
     the conference report.
     Section 718. Coordination with United States Trade 
         Representative
       This section of the conference report is new and requires 
     coordination by the Attorney General with the United States 
     Trade Representative.


      Subtitle B--International Regulation of Precursor Chemicals

     Section 721. Information of foreign chain of distribution; 
         import restrictions regarding failure of distributors to 
         cooperate
       This section of the conference report is new and further 
     amends the reporting requirements for importers of meth 
     precursor chemicals, by requiring them to file with Federal 
     regulators the detailed information about the chain of 
     distribution of imported chemicals (from the manufacturer to 
     the shores of the U.S.). This provision will assist U.S. law 
     enforcement agencies to better track where meth precursors 
     come from, and how they get to the U.S. At present, very 
     little information exists about the international ``chain of 
     distribution'' for these chemicals, hindering effective 
     controls.
     Section 722. Requirements relating to the largest exporting 
         and importing countries of certain precursor chemicals
       This section of the conference report is new, and was 
     originally introduced by Rep. Mark Kennedy in the House and 
     was adopted by the House as part of the State Department 
     reauthorization legislation for FE 2006-07 (H.R. 2601). It 
     mandates a separate section of the current State Department 
     report on major drug producing and transit countries (see 22 
     U.S.C. 2291h), identifying the five largest exporters of 
     major methamphetamine precursor chemicals, and the five 
     largest importers that also have the highest rate of 
     methamphetamine production or diversion of these chemicals to 
     the production of methamphetamine. If any of those countries 
     was not fully cooperating with U.S. law enforcement in 
     implementing their responsibilities under international drug 
     control treaties, there would be consequences for their 
     eligibility for U.S. aid, similar to those faced by the major 
     drug trafficking nations under current law.
       The conference report adds a provision clarifying the 
     original intent of this amendment, to apply the ``fully 
     cooperates'' standard (and not the lesser standard under 
     another, separate provision of law). The provision also 
     includes an authorization of one million dollars for 
     implementation.
       The House recently passed an amendment to the State 
     Department's appropriations bill for FY '06, adding $5 
     million for the State Department to implement anti-
     methamphetamine measures; this $1 million could be derived 
     from that amount.
     Section 723. Prevention of smuggling of methamphetamine into 
         the united states from mexico
       This section of the conference report is new and requires 
     the State Department's Bureau for International Narcotics and 
     Law Enforcement Affairs (INL) to provide assistance to Mexico 
     to prevent the production of methamphetamine in that country, 
     and to encourage Mexico to stop the illegal diversion of 
     methamphetamine precursor chemicals. The conference report 
     authorizes the use of $4 million of the $5 million recently 
     approved by the House for these purposes. (The remaining 
     funds would be available to help the State Department 
     implement Sec. 722, as described above.)


Subtitle C--Enhanced Criminal Penalties for Methamphetamine Production 
                              and Tracking

     Section 731. Smuggling methamphetamine or methamphetamine 
         precursor chemicals into the United States while using 
         facilitated entry programs
       This section of the conference report is new. Even as more 
     methamphetamine is being smuggled across the border, 
     increased legitimate international traffic has forced the 
     bureau of Customs and Border Protection (CBP) to rely on 
     facilitated entry programs--so-called ``fastpass'' systems 
     like SENTRI (for passenger traffic on the Southwest border), 
     FAST (for commercial truck traffic), and NEXUS (for passenger 
     traffic on the Northern border). These systems allow pre-
     screened individuals to use dedicated lanes at border 
     crossings, subject only to occasional searches to test 
     compliance with customs and immigration laws. This section of 
     the conference report creates an added deterrent for anyone 
     who misuses a facilitated entry program to smuggle 
     methamphetamine or its precursor chemicals. An additional 
     penalty of up to 15 years. imprisonment is added to the 
     punishment for the base offense. If convicted, an individual 
     would also be permanently barred from using a fastpass 
     system.

[[Page H11310]]

     Section 732. Manufacturing controlled substances on federal 
         property
       This section of the conference report is new. This section 
     clarifies that current penalties for cultivating illegal 
     drugs on Federal property also apply to manufacturing 
     synthetic drugs {such as methamphetamine). Methamphetamine 
     ``cooks'' frequently move their operations to parks, national 
     forests, and other public lands, causing serious 
     environmental damage. This criminal penalty can help deter 
     such destructive conduct.
     Section 733. Increased punishment for methamphetamine 
         kingpins
       This provision of the conference report is new, and allows 
     for easier application of the enhanced penalties of the 
     ``continuing criminal enterprise'' section of the Controlled 
     Substances Act (21 U.S.C. Sec. 848). That section (commonly 
     referred to as the ``kingpin'' statute) imposes life 
     imprisonment on a leader of a drug trafficking organization 
     convicted of trafficking in very large quantities of a drug, 
     and receiving very large profits from that activity. This new 
     provision reduces the threshold amount of methamphetamine 
     (from 300 to 200 times the threshold for base violations) and 
     profits from methamphetamine (from $10 million to $5 
     million), while still applying the life imprisonment penalty 
     only to. true ``kingpins''--the ringleaders of 
     methamphetamine trafficking organizations.
     Section 734. New child-protection criminal enhancement
       This provision of the conference report, which is new, 
     punishes an offender who manufactures methamphetamine at a 
     location where a child resides or is present, and imposes a 
     consecutive. sentence of up to an additional 20 years 
     imprisonment.
     Section 735. Amendments to certain sentencing court reporting 
         requirements
       This provision of the conference report is new and 
     authorizes the United States Sentencing Commission to 
     establish a form to be used by United States District Judges 
     when imposing criminal sentences in order to facilitate data 
     gathering and reporting by the Sentencing Commission.
     Section 736. Semiannual reports to congress
       This provision, which is new to the conference report, 
     requires the Attorney General to report to Congress on 
     investigations and prosecutions relating to methamphetamine 
     production.


   Subtitle D--Enhanced Environmental Regulation of Methamphetamine 
                               Byproducts

     Section 741. Biennial report to congress on agency 
         designations of by-products on methamphetamine 
         laboratories as hazardous materials
       This provision of the conference report is new, and 
     requires the Department of Transportation to report to 
     Congress every two years whether then-existing statutes and 
     regulations cover methamphetamine by-products as hazardous 
     materials.
     Section 742. Methamphetamine production report
       This provision of the conference report is new, and 
     requires the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to report 
     to Congress every two years on whether then-existing statutes 
     and regulations cover methamphetamine by-products as 
     hazardous materials.
     Section 743. cleanup costs
       This provision of the conference report is new, and 
     clarifies existing law imposing the obligation of restitution 
     for environmental cleanup costs on persons involved in meth 
     production and trafficking. The recent decision of the Eighth 
     Circuit Court of Appeals in United States v. Lachowski (405 
     F3d 696, 8th Cir. 2005) has undermined the ability of the 
     Federal government to seek cleanup costs. from 
     methamphetamine traffickers who are convicted only of 
     methamphetamine possession--even when the methamphetamine lab 
     in question was on the defendant's own property. This 
     provision would ensure that any person convicted of a 
     methamphetamine-related offense can be held liable for 
     clean-up costs for methamphetamine production that took 
     place on the defendant's own property, or in his or her 
     place of business or residence.


             Subtitle E--Additional Programs and Activities

     Section 751. Improvements to Department of Justice Drug 
         Courts program
       This section of the conference report is new, and revises 
     the Drug Court program statute to clarify the requirement for 
     periodic testing, graduated sanctions when an offender tests 
     positive, and a list of potential sanctions when a positive 
     test occurs.
     Section 752. Drug Courts funding
       This provision of the conference report is new and 
     authorizes appropriations for drug courts.
     Section 753. Feasibility study on Federal Drug Courts
       This provision of the conference report, which is new, 
     directs the Attorney General to conduct a study on the 
     feasibility of Federal drug courts.
     Section 754. Grants to hot spot areas to reduce availability 
         of methamphetamine
       This section, which is new to the conference report, 
     authorizes $99 million for fiscal years 2006 to 2010 for 
     grants to State and local law enforcement agencies to assist 
     in the investigation of methamphetamine traffickers and to 
     reimburse the DEA for assistance in cleaning up 
     methamphetamine laboratories.
     Section 755. Grants for programs for drug-endangered children
       This section of the conference report, which is new, 
     authorizes grants to States to assist in treatment of 
     children who have been endangered by living at a residence 
     where methamphetamine has been manufactured or distributed.
     Section 756. Authority to award competitive grants to address 
         methamphetamine use by pregnant and parenting women 
         offenders
       Section 756 is a new provision and authorizes the Attorney 
     General to award grants to address the use of methamphetamine 
     among pregnant and parenting women offenders to promote 
     public safety, public health, family permanence and well 
     being.

     From the Committee on the Judiciary, for consideration of the 
     House bill (except section 132) and the Senate amendment, and 
     modifications committed to conference:
     F. James Sensenbrenner, Jr.,
     Howard Coble,
