     carrier authorized to be procured under paragraph (1) may be 
     procured as an addition to the contract covering the Ford

     to be constructed under section 121 of the John Warner 
     National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2007 
     (Public Law 109-364; 120 Stat. 2104).

     acquired and that the technical risks associated with such 
     property are not excessive.
       (4) The estimates of both the cost of the contract and the 
     anticipated cost avoidance through the use of a contract 
     authorized under subsection (a) are realistic.

     security of the United States.

     awarded, sufficient funds will be available to perform the 
     contract in such fiscal year, and the future-years defense 
     program (as defined under section 221 of title 10, United

     to the total amount of funding obligated at the time of

     entered into under subsection (a) shall provide that any 
     obligation of the United States to make a payment under the 
     contract for a fiscal year is subject to the availability of 
     appropriations for that purpose for such fiscal year.
       (f) Milestone Decision Authority Defined.--In this section,

     given that term in section 2366a(d) of title 10, United

     SEC. 317. DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE ENVIRONMENTAL RESTORATION 
                   PROGRAMS.

       (a) Findings.--Congress makes the following findings:
       (1) The Department of Defense has identified nearly 39,500 
     sites that fall under the installation restoration program 
     sites and munitions response sites.
       (2) The installation response program addresses 
     contamination from hazardous substances, pollutants, or 
     contaminants and active military installations, formerly used 
     defense site properties, and base realignment and closure 
     locations in the United States.
       (3) Munitions response sites are known or suspected to 
     contain unexploded ordnance, discarded military munitions, or 
     munitions constitutes are addressed through the military 
     munitions response program.
       (4) The installation restoration program sites and 
     munitions response sites have had significant impacts on 
     state and local governments that have had to bear the 
     increased costs of environmental degradation, notably 
     groundwater contamination, and local populations that have 
     had to live with the consequences of contaminated drinking, 
     including increased health concerns and decreasing property 
     values.
       (5) Through the end of fiscal year 2017, the Department of 
     Defense had achieved response complete at 86 percent of 
     installation restoration program sites and munitions response 
     sites, but projects that it will fall short of meeting its 
     goal of 90 percent by the end of fiscal year 2018.
       (6) The fiscal year 2019 budget request for environmental 
     restoration and base realignment and closure amounted to 
     nearly $1,318,320,000, a decrease of $53,429,000 from the 
     amount authorized in the National Defense Authorization Act 
     for Fiscal Year 2018 (Public Law 115-91).
       (b) Sense of Congress.--It is the sense of Congress that--
       (1) the environmental restoration and base realignment and 
     closure programs are important for the protection of the 
     environment, the health of the military and civilian 
     personnel and their families who live and work on military 
     installations, to ensure that current and legacy military 
     operations do not adversely affect the health or environments 
     of surrounding communities;
       (2) the Department of Defense and the Armed Forces should 
     seek to reduce the financial burden on state and local 
     government who are bearing significant costs of cleanup 
     stemming from defense related activities;
       (3) the Department of Defense and the Armed Forces should 
     expedite and streamline cleanup at locations where 
     contamination is having a direct impact on civilian access to 
     clean drinking water;
       (4) the Department of Defense and the Armed Forces should 
     continue to engage with and help allay local community 
     concerns about the safety of the drinking water due to 
     environmental degradation caused by defense related 
     activities; and
       (5) the Department of Defense should seek opportunities to 
     accelerate environmental restoration efforts where feasible, 
     to include programming additional resources for response 
     actions, investing in technology solutions that may expedite 
     response actions, improving contracting procedures, 
     increasing contracting capacity, and seeking opportunities 
     for partnerships and other cooperative approaches.

                   ARMED FORCES TO CONDUCT FULL SPECTRUM 
                   OPERATIONS.

       (a) Reviews Required.--For each of calendar years 2018 
     through 2021, the Comptroller General of the United States 
     shall conduct an annual review of the readiness of the Armed 
     Forces to conduct each of the following types of full 
     spectrum operations:
       (1) Ground.

     SEC. 334. SURFACE WARFARE TRAINING IMPROVEMENT.

       (a) Findings.--Congress makes the following findings:
       (1) In 2017, there were three collisions and one grounding 
     involving United States Navy ships in the Western Pacific. 
     The two most recent mishaps involved separate incidents of a 
     Japan-based United States Navy destroyer colliding with a 
     commercial merchant vessel, resulting in the combined loss of 
     17 sailors.
       (2) The causal factors in these four mishaps are linked 
     directly to a failure to take sufficient action in accordance 
     with the rules of good seamanship.
       (3) Because risks are high in the maritime environment, 
     there are widely accepted standards for safe seamanship and 
     navigation. In the United States, the International 
     Convention on Standards of Training, Certification and 
     Watchkeeping (hereinafter in this section referred to as the 
     ``STCW'') for Seafarers, standardizes the skills and 
     foundational knowledge a maritime professional must have in 
     seamanship and navigation.
       (4) Section 568 of the National Defense Authorization Act 
     for Fiscal Year 2017 (Public Law 114-328; 130 Stat. 2139) 
     endorsed the STCW process and required the Secretary of 
     Defense to maximize the extent to which Armed Forces service, 
     training, and qualifications are creditable toward meeting 
     merchant mariner licenses and certifications.
       (5) The Surface Warfare Officer Course Curriculum is being 
     modified to include ten individual Go/No Go Mariner 
     Assessments/Competency Check Milestones to ensure 
     standardization and quality of the surface warfare community.
       (6) The Military-to-Mariner Transition report of September 
     2017 notes the Army maintains an extensive STCW 
     qualifications program and that a similar Navy program does 
     not exist.
       (b) Sense of Congress.--It is the sense of Congress that--
       (1) the Secretary of the Navy should establish a 
     comprehensive individual proficiency assessment process and 
     include such an assessment prior to all operational surface 
     warfare officer tour assignments; and
       (2) the Secretary of the Navy should significantly expand 
     the STCW qualifications process to improve seamanship and 
     navigation individual skills training for surface warfare 
     candidates, surface warfare officers, quartermasters and 
     operations specialists to include an increased set of courses 
     that directly correspond to STCW standards.
       (c) Report.--Not later than March 1, 2019, the Secretary of 
     the Navy shall submit to the congressional defense committees 
     a report that includes each of the following:
       (1) A detailed description of the surface warfare officer 
     assessments process.
       (2) A list of programs that have been approved for credit 
     toward merchant mariner credentials.
       (3) A complete gap analysis of the existing surface warfare 
     training curriculum and STCW.
       (4) A complete gap analysis of the existing surface warfare 
     training curriculum and the 3rd mate unlimited licensing 
     requirement.
       (5) An assessment of surface warfare options to complete 
     the 3rd mate unlimited license and the STCW qualification.

     burden of inspection type visits that vessels undergo. Such 
     report shall include--
       (1) an audit of all surface Navy vessel inspections, 
     certifications, and required and recommended assist visits;
       (2) an analysis of such inspections, certifications, and 
     visits for redundancies, as well as any necessary items not 
     covered;
       (3) recommendations to streamline surface vessel 
     inspections, certifications, and required and recommended 
     assist visits to optimize effectiveness, improve material 
     readiness, and restore training readiness; and
       (4) recommendations for congressional action to address the 
     needs of the Navy as identified in the report.

     dollars;
       (3) of the subset referred to in paragraph (2), the amount 
     of depot maintenance workload performed in the public and 
     private sector by direct labor hour and by dollars for each 
     entity that would otherwise be considered core workload under 
     such section 2464, but is not considered core because a 
     weapon system or equipment has not been declared a program of 
     record; and
       (4) the projections for the upcoming future years defense 
     program, including the distinction between the Navy and the

     joint venture partners is available when awarding Department 
     of Defense contracts. The policies shall include proposed 
     revisions to the Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation 
     Supplement as follows:
       (1) Required performance evaluations, as part of a 
     government-wide evaluation reporting tool, for first-tier 
     subcontractors on construction and architect-engineer 
     contracts performing a portion of the contract valued at the 
     threshold set forth in section 42.1502(e) of the Federal 
     Acquisition Regulation, or 20 percent of the value of the 
     prime contract, whichever is higher, provided--
       (A) the information included in rating the subcontractor is 
     not inconsistent with the information included in the rating 
     for the prime contractor;
       (B) the subcontractor evaluation is conducted consistent 
     with the provisions of section 42.15 of the Federal 
     Acquisition Regulation;
       (C) negative evaluations of a subcontractor in no way 
     obviate the prime contractor's responsibility for successful 
     completion of the contract and management of its 
     subcontractors; and
       (D) that in the judgment of the contracting officer, the 
     overall execution of the work is impacted by the performance 
     of the subcontractor or subcontractors.
       (2) Required performance evaluations, as part of a 
     government-wide evaluation reporting tool, of individual 
     partners of joint venture-awarded construction and architect-
     engineer contracts valued at the threshold set forth in 
     section 42.1502(e) of the Federal Acquisition Regulation, to 
     ensure that past performance on joint venture projects is 
     considered in future awards to individual joint venture 
     partners, provided--
       (A) at a minimum, the rating for joint ventures includes an 
     identification that allows the evaluation to be retrieved for 
     each partner of the joint venture;
       (B) each partner, through the joint venture, is given the 
     same opportunity to submit comments, rebutting statements, or 
     additional information, consistent with the provisions of 
     section 42.15 of the Federal Acquisition Regulation; and
       (C) the rating clearly identifies the responsibilities of 
     joint venture partners for discrete elements of the work 
     where the partners are not jointly and severally responsible 
     for the project.
       (3) Processes to request exceptions from the annual 
     evaluation requirement under section 42.1502(a) of the 
     Federal Acquisition Regulation for construction and 
     architect-engineer contracts where submission of the annual 
     evaluations would not provide the best representation of the 
     performance of a contractor, including subcontractors and 
     joint venture partners, including--
       (A) where no severable element of the work has been 
     completed;
       (B) where the contracting officer determines that--
       (i) an insubstantial portion of the contract work has been 
     completed in the preceding year; and
       (ii) the lack of performance is at no fault to the 
     contractor; or
       (C) where the contracting officer determines that there is 
     an issue in dispute which, until resolved, would likely cause 
     the annual rating to inaccurately reflect the past 
     performance of the contractor.

     Regulation (or any similar regulation).''; and
       (2) by adding at the end the following new subsection:
       ``(i) Consent to Subcontract.--If the contractor on a 
     Department of Defense contract requiring a contracting 
     officer's written consent prior to the contractor entering 
     into a subcontract has an approved purchasing system, the 
     contracting officer may not withhold such consent without the 
     written approval of the program manager.''.
       (b) Conforming Regulations.--Not later than 120 days after 
     the date of the enactment of this Act, the Secretary of 
     Defense shall revise the Defense Federal Acquisition 
     Regulation Supplement to conform with the amendments to

       (a) Statement of Policy.--It shall be the policy of the

     of performance objectives, measures, and standards that will 
     be used to determine acceptability of offers;

     value from a contract proposal exceeding the minimum 
     technical or performance requirements set forth in the

     versus a competing proposal;
       (4) the executive agency has a high degree of confidence 
     that a review of technical proposals of offerors other than 
     the lowest bidder would not result in the identification of 
     factors that could provide value or benefit to the executive 
     agency;
       (5) the contracting officer has included a justification 
     for the use of a lowest price technically acceptable 
     evaluation methodology in the contract file; and
       (6) the executive agency has determined that the lowest 
     price reflects full life-cycle costs, including for 
     operations and support.

       (1) gaining and maintaining situational awareness and 
     operational control of the international borders of the 
     United States is critical to national security;
       (2) the United States Government must devote adequate 
     resources to securing the border, both at, and between, ports 
     of entry, and the agency tasked with that mission, the 
     Department of Homeland Security, should be adequately 
     resourced to conduct such mission; and
       (3) the Department of Defense must ensure that when it acts 
     in support of that mission, such as when mobilized by the 
     President to conduct homeland defense activities, or when 
     military facilities are adjacent to an international border 
     of the United States, it has adequate resources, 
     capabilities, and authorities to carry out the mission while

                   PROBLEMATIC SEXUAL BEHAVIOR COMMITTED ON

     establish a policy, applicable across the military 
     installations of the Department of Defense (including 
     installations outside the United States), on the response of 
     the Department to allegations of juvenile-on-juvenile 
     problematic sexual behavior on military installations. The 
     policy shall be designed to ensure a consistent, standardized 
     response to such allegations across the Department.
       (b) Elements.--The policy required by this section shall 
     provide for the following:
       (1) Any report or other allegation of juvenile-on-juvenile 
     problematic sexual behavior on a military installation that 
     is received by the installation commander, a law enforcement 
     organization, a Family Advocacy Program, a child development 
     center, a military treatment facility, or a Department school 
     operating on the installation or otherwise under Department 
     administration for the installation shall be reviewed by the 
     Family Advocacy Program of the installation.
       (2) Personnel of Family Advocacy Programs conducting 
     reviews shall have appropriate training and experience in 
     working with juveniles.
       (3) Family Advocacy Programs conducting reviews shall 
     conduct a multi-faceted, multi-disciplinary review and 
     recommend treatment, counseling, or other appropriate 
     interventions for complainants and respondents.
       (4) Each review shall be conducted--
       (A) with full involvement of appropriate authorities and 
     entities, including parents or legal guardians of the 
     juveniles involved (if practicable); and
       (B) to the extent practicable, in a manner that protects 
     the sensitive nature of the incident concerned, using 
     language appropriate to the treatment of juveniles in written 
     policies and communication with families.
       (5) The requirement for investigation of a report or other 
     allegation shall not be deemed to terminate or alter any 
     otherwise applicable requirement to report or forward the 
     report or allegation to appropriate Federal, State, or local 
     authorities as possible criminal activity.
       (6) There shall be established and maintained a centralized 
     database of information on each incident of problematic 
     sexual behavior that is reviewed by a Family Advocacy Program 
     under the policy established under this section, with--
       (A) the information in such database kept strictly 
     confidential; and
       (B) because the information involves alleged conduct by 
     juveniles, additional special precautions taken to ensure the 
     information is available only to persons who require access 
     to the information.
       (7) There shall be entered into the database, for each 
     substantiated or unsubstantiated incident of problematic 
     sexual behavior, appropriate information on the incident, 
     including--
       (A) a description of the allegation;
       (B) whether or not the review is completed;
       (C) whether or not the incident was subject to an 
     investigation by a law enforcement organization or entity, 
     and the status and results of such investigation; and
       (D) whether or not action was taken in response to the 
     incident, and the nature of the action, if any, so taken.

     more effectively partner with the Iraqi Security Forces, the 
     United States, and other international Coalition members to

     United States has played, and will continue to play, a 
     central role in the national security of the United States 
     and international stability;
       (2) strong, credible, and flexible nuclear forces of the 
     United States deter aggression by adversaries and assure the 
     allies of the United States

[[Page H7345]]

     that the extended deterrence commitments of the United States 
     are steadfast;
       (3) the 2017 National Security Strategy, the 2018 National 
     Defense Strategy, and the 2018 Nuclear Posture Review 
     correctly assess changes in the security environment related 
     to interstate strategic competition and recognize that the 
     defense policies and posture of the United States, including 
     those related to nuclear forces, must undergo measured 
     adjustments;
       (4) the United States remains committed to, and will 
     continue to honor, its full range of nuclear arms control and 
     nonproliferation treaty obligations and seeks continued 
     engagement for prudent and verifiable agreements, however, 
     the policies and actions of the United States must also hold 
     states that violate such treaties accountable for such 
     violations and take such violations into account when 
     considering further arms control agreements;
       (5) the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) plays an 
     essential role in the national security of the United States 
     and NATO should continue to strengthen and align its nuclear 
     and conventional deterrence posture, planning, and exercises 
     to align with modern threats, including modernizing its dual-
     capable aircraft, command and control networks, nuclear-
     related facilities, and conventional capabilities;
       (6) the 2018 Nuclear Posture Review rightly states that the 
     United States requires reliable, diverse, and tailorable 
     nuclear forces capable of responding to a variety of current 
     threats while preparing for future uncertainty and directs 
     implementation of a comprehensive nuclear modernization 
     program at both the Department of Defense and the National 
     Nuclear Security Administration; and
       (7) the Department of Defense and the National Nuclear 
     Security Administration must integrate, partner, and organize 
     themselves to successfully execute all aspects of the nuclear 
     modernization program, including those regarding nuclear 
     forces, warheads, infrastructure, command and control, and 
     personnel.

     international agreement with Israel that establishes, with 
     respect to the use of such funds--
       (i) in accordance with subparagraph (D), the terms of co-
     production of parts and components on the basis of the 
     greatest practicable co-production of parts, components, and

     SEC. 1701. SHORT TITLE: FOREIGN INVESTMENT RISK REVIEW 
                   MODERNIZATION ACT OF 2018.

       This subtitle may be cited as the ``Foreign Investment Risk 
     Review Modernization Act of 2018''.

     SEC. 1702. FINDINGS; SENSE OF CONGRESS.

       (a) Findings.--Congress makes the following findings:
       (1) According to a February 2016 report by the 
     International Trade Administration of the Department of 
     Commerce, 12,000,000 United States workers, equivalent to 8.5 
     percent of the labor force, have jobs resulting from foreign 
     investment, including 3,500,000 jobs in the manufacturing 
     sector alone.
       (2) In 2016, new foreign direct investment in United States 
     manufacturing totaled $129,400,000,000.
       (3) The Bureau of Economic Analysis of the Department of 
     Commerce concluded that, in 2015--
       (A) foreign-owned affiliates in the United States--
       (i) contributed $894,500,000,000 in value added to the 
     United States economy;
       (ii) exported goods valued at $352,800,000,000, accounting 
     for nearly a quarter of total exports of goods from the 
     United States; and
       (iii) undertook $56,700,000,000 in research and 
     development; and
       (B) the 7 countries investing the most in the United 
     States, all of which are United States allies (the United 
     Kingdom, Japan, Germany, France, Canada, Switzerland, and the 
     Netherlands) accounted for 72.1 percent of the value added by 
     foreign-owned affiliates in the United States and more than 
     80 percent of research and development expenditures by such 
     entities.
       (4) According to the Government Accountability Office, from 
     2011 to 2016, the number of transactions reviewed by the 
     Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States 
     (commonly referred to as ``CFIUS'') grew by 55 percent, while 
     the staff of the Committees assigned to the reviews increased 
     by 11 percent.
       (5) According to a February 2018 report of the Government 
     Accountability Office on the Committee on Foreign Investment 
     in the United States (GAO-18-249): ``Officials from Treasury 
     and other member agencies are aware of pressures on their 
     CFIUS staff given the current workload and have expressed 
     concerns about possible workload increases.''. The Government 
     Accountability Office concluded: ``Without attaining an 
     understanding of the staffing levels needed to address the 
     current and future CFIUS workload, particularly if 
     legislative changes to CFIUS's authorities further expand its 
     workload, CFIUS may be limited in its ability to fulfill its 
     objectives and address threats to the national security of 
     the United States.''.
       (6) On March 30, 1954, Dwight David Eisenhower--five-star 
     general, Supreme Allied Commander, and 34th President of the 
     United States--in his ``Special Message to the Congress on 
     Foreign Economic Policy'', counseled: ``Great mutual 
     advantages to buyer and seller, to producer and consumer, to 
     investor and to the community where investment is made, 
     accrue from high levels of trade and investment.''. President 
     Eisenhower continued: ``The internal strength of the American 
     economy has evolved from such a system of mutual advantage. 
     In the press of other problems and in the haste to meet 
     emergencies, this nation--and many other nations of the free 
     world--have all too often lost sight of this central fact.''. 
     President Eisenhower concluded: ``If we fail in our trade 
     policy, we may fail in all. Our domestic employment, our 
     standard of living, our security, and the solidarity of the 
     free world--all are involved.''.
       (b) Sense of Congress.--It is the sense of Congress that--
       (1) foreign investment provides substantial economic 
     benefits to the United States, including the promotion of 
     economic growth, productivity, competitiveness, and job 
     creation, thereby enhancing national security;
       (2) maintaining the commitment of the United States to an 
     open investment policy encourages other countries to 
     reciprocate and helps open new foreign markets for United 
     States businesses;
       (3) it should continue to be the policy of the United 
     States to enthusiastically welcome and support foreign 
     investment, consistent with the protection of national 
     security;
       (4) at the same time, the national security landscape has 
     shifted in recent years, and so has the nature of the 
     investments that pose the greatest potential risk to national 
     security, which warrants an appropriate modernization of the 
     processes and authorities of the Committee on Foreign 
     Investment in the United States and of the United States 
     export control system;
       (5) the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United 
     States plays a critical role in protecting the national 
     security of the United States, and, therefore, it is 
     essential that the member agencies of the Committee are 
     adequately resourced and able to hire appropriately qualified 
     individuals in a timely manner, and that those individuals' 
     security clearances are processed as a high priority;
       (6) the President should conduct a more robust 
     international outreach effort to urge and help allies and 
     partners of the United States to establish processes that are 
     similar to the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United 
     States to screen foreign investments for national security 
     risks and to facilitate coordination;
       (7) the President should lead a collaborative effort with 
     allies and partners of the United States to strengthen the 
     multilateral export control regime;
       (8) any penalties imposed by the United States Government 
     with respect to an individual or entity pursuant to a 
     determination that the individual or entity has violated 
     sanctions imposed by the United States or the export control 
     laws of the United States should not be reversed for reasons 
     unrelated to the national security of the United States; and
       (9) the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United 
     States should continue to review transactions for the purpose 
     of protecting national security and should not consider 
     issues of national interest absent a national security nexus.
       (c) Sense of Congress on Consideration of Covered 
     Transactions.--It is the sense of Congress that, when 
     considering national security risks, the Committee on Foreign 
     Investment in the United States may consider--
       (1) whether a covered transaction involves a country of 
     special concern that has a demonstrated or declared strategic 
     goal of acquiring a type of critical technology or critical 
     infrastructure that would affect United States leadership in 
     areas related to national security;
       (2) the potential national security-related effects of the 
     cumulative control of, or pattern of recent transactions 
     involving, any one type of critical infrastructure, energy 
     asset, critical material, or critical technology by a foreign 
     government or foreign person;
       (3) whether any foreign person engaging in a covered 
     transaction with a United States business has a history of 
     complying with United States laws and regulations;
       (4) the control of United States industries and commercial 
     activity by foreign persons as it affects the capability and 
     capacity of the United States to meet the requirements of 
     national security, including the availability of human 
     resources, products, technology, materials, and other 
     supplies and services, and in considering ``the availability 
     of human resources'', should construe that term to include 
     potential losses of such availability resulting from 
     reductions in the employment of United States persons whose 
     knowledge or skills are critical to national security, 
     including the continued production in the United States of 
     items that are likely to be acquired by the Department of 
     Defense or other Federal departments or agencies for the 
     advancement of the national security of the United States;
       (5) the extent to which a covered transaction is likely to 
     expose, either directly or indirectly, personally 
     identifiable information, genetic information, or other 
     sensitive data of United States citizens to access by a 
     foreign government or foreign person that may exploit that 
     information in a manner that threatens national security; and
       (6) whether a covered transaction is likely to have the 
     effect of exacerbating or creating new cybersecurity 
     vulnerabilities in the United States or is likely to result 
     in a foreign government gaining a significant new capability 
     to engage in malicious cyber-enabled activities

     to affect the outcome of any election for Federal office.

            PART I--AUTHORITY AND ADMINISTRATION OF CONTROLS

     SEC. 1751. SHORT TITLE.

       This part may be cited as the ``Export Controls Act of 
     2018''.

     SEC. 1752. STATEMENT OF POLICY.

       The following is the policy of the United States:
       (1) To use export controls only after full consideration of 
     the impact on the economy of the United States and only to 
     the extent necessary--
       (A) to restrict the export of items which would make a 
     significant contribution to the military potential of any 
     other country or combination of countries which would prove 
     detrimental to the national security of the United States; 
     and
       (B) to restrict the export of items if necessary to further 
     significantly the foreign policy of the United States or to 
     fulfill its declared international obligations.
       (2) The national security and foreign policy of the United 
     States require that the export, reexport, and in-country 
     transfer of items, and specific activities of United States 
     persons, wherever located, be controlled for the following 
     purposes:
       (A) To control the release of items for use in--
       (i) the proliferation of weapons of mass destruction or of 
     conventional weapons;
       (ii) the acquisition of destabilizing numbers or types of 
     conventional weapons;
       (iii) acts of terrorism;
       (iv) military programs that could pose a threat to the 
     security of the United States or its allies; or
       (v) activities undertaken specifically to cause significant 
     interference with or disruption of critical infrastructure.
       (B) To preserve the qualitative military superiority of the 
     United States.
       (C) To strengthen the United States defense industrial 
     base.
       (D) To carry out the foreign policy of the United States, 
     including the protection of human rights and the promotion of 
     democracy.
       (E) To carry out obligations and commitments under 
     international agreements and arrangements, including 
     multilateral export control regimes.
       (F) To facilitate military interoperability between the 
     United States and its North Atlantic Treaty Organization 
     (NATO) and other close allies.
       (G) To ensure national security controls are tailored to 
     focus on those core technologies and other items that are 
     capable of being used to pose a serious national security 
     threat to the United States.
       (3) The national security of the United States requires 
     that the United States maintain its leadership in the 
     science, technology, engineering, and manufacturing sectors, 
     including foundational technology that is essential to 
     innovation. Such leadership requires that United States 
     persons are competitive in global markets. The impact of the 
     implementation of this part on such leadership and 
     competitiveness must be evaluated on an ongoing basis and 
     applied in imposing controls under sections 1753 and 1754 to 
     avoid negatively affecting such leadership.
       (4) The national security and foreign policy of the United 
     States require that the United States

[[Page H7358]]

     participate in multilateral organizations and agreements 
     regarding export controls on items that are consistent with 
     the policy of the United States, and take all the necessary 
     steps to secure the adoption and consistent enforcement, by 
     the governments of such countries, of export controls on 
     items that are consistent with such policy.
       (5) Export controls should be coordinated with the 
     multilateral export control regimes. Export controls that are 
     multilateral are most effective, and should be tailored to 
     focus on those core technologies and other items that are 
     capable of being used to pose a serious national security 
     threat to the United States and its allies.
       (6) Export controls applied unilaterally to items widely 
     available from foreign sources generally are less effective 
     in preventing end-users from acquiring those items. 
     Application of unilateral export controls should be limited 
     for purposes of protecting specific United States national 
     security and foreign policy interests.
       (7) The effective administration of export controls 
     requires a clear understanding both inside and outside the 
     United States Government of which items are controlled and an 
     efficient process should be created to regularly update the 
     controls, such as by adding or removing such items.
       (8) The export control system must ensure that it is 
     transparent, predictable, and timely, has the flexibility to 
     be adapted to address new threats in the future, and allows 
     seamless access to and sharing of export control information 
     among all relevant United States national security and 
     foreign policy agencies.
       (9) Implementation and enforcement of United States export 
     controls require robust capabilities in monitoring, 
     intelligence, and investigation, appropriate penalties for 
     violations, and the ability to swiftly interdict unapproved 
     transfers.
       (10) Export controls complement and are a critical element 
     of the national security policies underlying the laws and 
     regulations governing foreign direct investment in the United 
     States, including controlling the transfer of critical 
     technologies to certain foreign persons. Thus, the President, 
     in coordination with the Secretary, the Secretary of Defense, 
     the Secretary of State, the Secretary of Energy, and the 
     heads of other Federal agencies, as appropriate, should have 
     a regular and robust process to identify the emerging and 
     other types of critical technologies of concern and regulate 
     their release to foreign persons as warranted regardless of 
     the nature of the underlying transaction. Such identification 
     efforts should draw upon the resources and expertise of all 
     relevant parts of the United States Government, industry, and 
     academia. These efforts should be in addition to traditional 
     efforts to modernize and update the lists of controlled items 
     under the multilateral export control regimes.
       (11) The authority under this part may be exercised only in 
     furtherance of all of the objectives set forth in paragraphs 
     (1) through (10).

     of foreign persons who threaten the national security or 
     foreign policy of the United States, and guidance in a form 
     that facilitates compliance by United States persons and 
     foreign persons, in particular academic institutions, 
     scientific and research establishments, and small- and 
     medium-sized businesses.
       (c) Application of Controls.--The President shall impose 
     controls over the export, reexport, or in-country transfer of 
     items for purposes of the objectives described in subsections 
     (b)(1) or (b)(2) without regard to the nature of the 
     underlying transaction or any circumstances pertaining to the 
     activity, including whether such export, reexport, or in-
     country transfer occurs pursuant to a purchase order or other 
     contract requirement, voluntary decision, inter-company 
     arrangement, marketing effort, or during a joint venture, 
     joint development agreement, or similar collaborative 
     agreement.

     necessary to effectively counteract those threats;
       (2) review and approve--
       (A) criteria for including items on, and removing such an 
     item from, a list of controlled items established under this 
     part;
       (B) an interagency procedure for compiling and amending any 
     list described in subparagraph (A);

     SEC. 1756. LICENSING.

       (a) In General.--The Secretary shall, consistent with

     procedure to license or otherwise authorize the export, 
     reexport, and in-country transfer of items controlled under 
     this part in order to carry out the policy set forth in 
     section 1752 and the requirements set forth in section 
     1753(b). The procedure shall ensure that--
       (1) license applications and other requests for 
     authorization are considered and decisions made with the 
     participation of appropriate Federal agencies, as 
     appropriate; and
       (2) licensing decisions are made in an expeditious manner, 
     with transparency to applicants on the status of license and 
     other authorization processing and the reason for denying any 
     license or request for authorization.
       (b) Sense of Congress.--It is the sense of Congress that 
     the Secretary should make best efforts to ensure that an 
     accurate, consistent, and timely evaluation and processing of 
     licenses or other requests for authorization to export, 
     reexport, or in-country transfer items controlled under this 
     part is generally accomplished within 30 days from the date 
     of such license request.
       (c) Fees.--No fee may be charged in connection with the 
     submission, processing, or consideration of any application 
     for a license or other authorization or other request made in 
     connection with any regulation in effect under the authority 
     of this part.

       (1) In general.--The procedure required under subsection 
     (a) shall provide for the assessment of the impact of a 
     proposed export of an item on the United States defense 
     industrial base and the denial of an application for a 
     license or a request for an authorization of any export that 
     would have a significant negative impact on such defense 
     industrial base, as described in paragraph (3).
       (2) Information from applicant.--The procedure required 
     under subsection (a) shall also require an applicant for a 
     license to provide the information necessary to make the 
     assessment provided under paragraph (1), including whether 
     the purpose or effect of the export is to allow for the 
     significant production of items relevant for the defense 
     industrial base outside the United States.
       (3) Significantly negative impact defined.--A significant 
     negative impact on the United States defense industrial base 
     is the following:
       (A) A reduction in the availability of an item produced in 
     the United States that is likely to be acquired by the 
     Department of Defense or other Federal department or agency 
     for the advancement of the national security of the United 
     States, or for the production of an item in the United States 
     for the Department of Defense or other agency for the 
     advancement of the national security of the United States.
       (B) A reduction in the production in the United States of 
     an item that is the result of research and development 
     carried out, or funded by, the Department of Defense or other 
     Federal department or agency to advance the national security 
     of the United States, or a federally funded research and 
     development center.
       (C) A reduction in the employment of United States persons 
     whose knowledge and skills are necessary for the continued 
     production in the United States of an item that is likely to 
     be acquired by the Department of Defense or other Federal 
     department or agency for the advancement of the national 
     security of the United States.

     SEC. 1757. COMPLIANCE ASSISTANCE.

       (a) System for Seeking Assistance.--The President may 
     authorize the Secretary to establish a system to provide 
     United States persons with assistance in complying with this 
     part, which may include a mechanism for providing 
     information, in classified form as appropriate, who are 
     potential customers, suppliers, or business partners with 
     respect to items controlled under this part, in order to 
     further ensure the prevention of the export, reexport, or in-
     country transfer of items that may pose a threat to the 
     national security or foreign policy of the United States.
       (b) Security Clearances.--In order to carry out subsection 
     (a), the President may issue appropriate security clearances 
     to persons described in that subsection who are responsible 
     for complying with this part.

     applications and identifying items controlled under this 
     part, as well as proposals for seminars and conferences to 
     educate such businesses on export controls, licensing 
     procedures, and related obligations.

     control list of that regime and that regime does not add that 
     technology to the control list during the 3-year period 
     beginning on the date of the proposal, the applicable agency 
     head may determine whether national security concerns warrant

       (B) establish or acquire proprietary corporations or 
     business entities as part of the undercover operation and 
     operate such corporations or business entities on a 
     commercial basis, without regard to sections 9102 and 9103 of 
     title 31, United States Code.
       (2) Deposit of amounts in banks or other financial 
     institutions.--Amounts made available to carry out this part 
     that are used to carry out undercover operations under 
     paragraph (1) may be deposited in banks or other financial 
     institutions without regard to the provisions of section 648 
     of title 18, United States Code, and section 3302 of title 
     31, United States Code.
       (3) Offset of necessary and reasonable expenses.--Any

     expenses incurred in such undercover operation without regard 
     to the provisions of section 3302 of title 31, United States 
     Code.
       (4) Disposition of corporations and business entities.--If 
     a corporation or business entity established or acquired as 
     part of an undercover operation carried out under paragraph 
     (1) with a net value of over $50,000 is to be liquidated, 
     sold, or otherwise disposed of, the Secretary shall report 
     the circumstances to the Comptroller General of the United 
     States as much in advance of such disposition as the 
     Secretary determines is practicable. The proceeds of the 
     liquidation, sale, or other disposition, after obligations 
     are met, shall be deposited in the Treasury of the United 
     States as miscellaneous receipts. Any property or equipment 
     purchased pursuant to paragraph (1) may be retained for 
     subsequent use in undercover operations under this section. 
     When such property or equipment is no longer needed, it shall 
     be considered surplus and disposed of as surplus government 
     property.

     operation, the proceeds or the balance of such proceeds 
     remaining at the time shall be deposited into the Treasury of 
     the United States as miscellaneous receipts.

     jurisdiction to issue an order requiring such person to 
     appear and give testimony or to appear and produce books, 
     records, and other writings, regardless of format, that are 
     the subject of the subpoena. Any failure to obey such order 
     of the court may be punished by such court as a contempt 
     thereof.
       (d) Best Practice Guidelines.--
       (1) In general.--The Secretary, in consultation with the 
     heads of other appropriate Federal agencies, should publish

     developing and implementing, on a voluntary basis, effective 
     export control programs in compliance with the regulations 
     issued under this part.
       (2) Export compliance program.--The implementation by a 
     person of an effective export compliance program and a high 
     quality overall export compliance effort by a person should 
     ordinarily be given weight as mitigating factors in a civil 
     penalty action against the person under this part.

     section, a reference to the enforcement of, or a violation 
     of, this part includes a reference to the enforcement or a

     paragraph (1) of this subsection) the following new 
     subparagraph:
       ``(t) any violation of the Export Control Reform Act of 
     2018; or''.
       (g) Immunity.--A person shall not be excused from complying 
     with any requirements under this section because of the 
     person's privilege against self-incrimination, but the 
     immunity provisions of section 6002 of title 18, United

     SEC. 1767. EFFECT ON OTHER ACTS.

       (a) In General.--Except as otherwise provided in this part, 
     nothing contained in this part shall be construed to modify, 
     repeal, supersede, or otherwise affect the provisions of any 
     other laws authorizing control over the export or reexport of 
     any item.
       (b) Coordination of Controls.--
       (1) In general.--The authority granted to the President 
     under this part shall be exercised in such manner so as to 
     achieve effective coordination with the authority exercised

     country transfer by United States and foreign persons of 
     commodities, software, technology, and services to various 
     end uses and end users for foreign policy and national 
     security reasons;
       (B) should regularly work to reduce complexity in the 
     system, including complexity caused merely by the existence 
     of structural, definitional, and other non-policy based 
     differences between and among different export control and 
     sanctions systems; and
       (C) should coordinate controls on items exported, 
     reexported, or in-country transferred in connection with a 
     foreign military sale under chapter 2 of the Arms Export 
     Control Act (22 U.S.C. 2761 et seq.) or a commercial sale 
     under section 38 of the Arms Export Control Act to reduce as

     result of differences between the exercise of those two 
     authorities.
       (c) Nonproliferation Controls.--Nothing in this part shall 
     be construed to supersede the procedures published by the

       This part may be cited as the ``Anti-Boycott Act of 2018''.

     SEC. 1772. STATEMENT OF POLICY.

       Congress declares it is the policy of the United States--
       (1) to oppose restrictive trade practices or boycotts 
     fostered or imposed by any foreign country against other 
     countries friendly to the United States or against any United 
     States person;
       (2) to encourage and, in specified cases, require United 
     States persons engaged in the export of goods or technology 
     or other information to refuse to take actions, including 
     furnishing information or entering into or implementing 
     agreements, which have the effect of furthering or supporting 
     the restrictive trade practices or boycotts fostered or 
     imposed by any foreign country against a country friendly to 
     the United States or any United States person; and
       (3) to foster international cooperation and the development 
     of international rules and institutions to assure reasonable 
     access to world supplies.

     SEC. 1773. FOREIGN BOYCOTTS.

       (a) Prohibitions and Exceptions.--
       (1) Prohibitions.--For the purpose of implementing the 
     policies set forth in section 1772, the President shall issue 
     regulations prohibiting any United States person, with 
     respect to that person's activities in the interstate or 
     foreign commerce of the United States, from taking or 
     knowingly agreeing to take any of the following actions with 
     intent to comply with, further, or support any boycott 
     fostered or imposed by any foreign country, against a country 
     which is friendly to the United States and which is not 
     itself the object of any form of boycott pursuant to United 
     States law or regulation:
       (A) Refusing, or requiring any other person to refuse, to 
     do business with or in the boycotted country, with any 
     business concern organized under the laws of the boycotted 
     country, with any national or resident of the boycotted 
     country, or with any other person, pursuant to an agreement 
     with, a requirement of, or a request from or on behalf of the 
     boycotting country. The mere absence of a business 
     relationship with or in the boycotted country with any 
     business concern organized under the laws of the boycotted 
     country, with any national or resident of the boycotted 
     country, or with any other person, does not indicate the 
     existence of the intent required to establish a violation of 
     regulations issued to carry out this subparagraph.
       (B) Refusing, or requiring any other person to refuse, to 
     employ or otherwise discriminating against any United States 
     person on the basis of race, religion, sex, or national

     employee of such person.
       (C) Furnishing information with respect to the race,

     has had, or proposes to have any business relationship 
     (including a relationship by way of sale, purchase, legal or 
     commercial representation, shipping or other transport, 
     insurance, investment, or supply) with or in the boycotted 
     country, with any business concern organized under the laws 
     of the boycotted country, with any national or resident of 
     the boycotted country, or with any other person which is 
     known or believed to be restricted from having any business 
     relationship with or in the boycotting country. Nothing in 
     this subparagraph shall prohibit the furnishing of normal 
     business information in a commercial context as defined by

     SEC. 3142. SENSE OF CONGRESS REGARDING COMPENSATION OF 
                   INDIVIDUALS RELATING TO URANIUM MINING AND 
                   NUCLEAR TESTING.

       (a) Findings.--Congress makes the following findings:
       (1) The Radiation Exposure Compensation Act (42 U.S.C. 2210 
     note) was enacted in 1990 to provide monetary compensation to 
     individuals who contracted certain cancers and other serious 
     diseases following their exposure to radiation released 
     during atmospheric nuclear weapons testing during the Cold 
     War or following exposure to radiation as a result of 
     employment in the uranium industry during the Cold War.
       (2) The Energy Employees Occupational Illness Compensation 
     Program Act of 2000 (42 U.S.C. 7384 et seq.) formally 
     acknowledged the dangers to which some employees of sites of 
     the Department of Energy and its vendors during the Cold War 
     were exposed. That Act also acknowledged that, although 
     establishing the link between occupational hazards and 
     specific diseases can be difficult, scientific evidence 
     exists to support the conclusion that some activities related 
     to Cold War nuclear weapons production

[[Page H7387]]

     have resulted in increased risk of illness and death to 
     workers. That Act established a formal process for the 
     submission of claims for medical expenses and lump sum 
     compensation for former employees and contractors and 
     survivors of those former employees and contractors.
       (3) As of the date of the enactment of this Act, more than 
     150,231 claims have been paid out under the Radiation 
     Exposure Compensation Act and the Energy Employees 
     Occupational Illness Compensation Program Act of 2000, for a 
     total of at least $17,400,000,000 in lump sum compensation 
     and medical expenses.
       (b) Sense of Congress.--It is the sense of Congress that 
     the United States Government should appropriately compensate 
     and recognize the employees, contractors, and other 
     individuals described in subsection (a).

       JOINT EXPLANATORY STATEMENT OF THE COMMITTEE OF CONFERENCE

       The managers on the part of the House and the Senate at the 
     conference on the disagreeing votes of the two Houses on the 
     amendment of the Senate to the bill (H.R. 5515), to authorize 
     appropriations for fiscal year 2019 for military activities 
     of the Department of Defense, for military construction, and 
     for defense activities of the Department of Energy, to 
     prescribe military personnel strengths for such fiscal year, 
     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.
     Compliance with rules of the House of Representatives and 
         Senate regarding earmarks and congressionally directed 
         spending items
       Pursuant to clause 9 of rule XXI of the Rules of the House 
     of Representatives and Rule XLIV(3) of the Standing Rules of 
     the Senate, neither this conference report nor the 
     accompanying joint statement of managers contains any 
     congressional earmarks, congressionally directed spending 
     items, limited tax benefits, or limited tariff benefits, as 
     defined in such rules.
     Summary of discretionary authorizations and budget authority 
         implication
       The budget request for national defense discretionary 
     programs within the jurisdiction of the Committees on Armed 
     Services of the Senate and the House of Representatives for 
     fiscal year 2019 was $708.1 billion. Of this amount, $617.1 
     billion was requested for base Department of Defense 
     programs, $69.0 billion was requested for overseas 
     contingency

[[Page H7458]]

     operations, $21.8 billion was requested for national security 
     programs in the Department of Energy and the Defense Nuclear 
     Facilities Safety Board, and $214.0 million for defense-
     related activities.
       The conference agreement would authorize $708.1 billion in 
     fiscal year 2019, including $616.9 billion for base 
     Department of Defense programs, $69.0 billion for overseas 
     contingency operations, $21.9 billion for national security 
     programs in the Department of Energy and the Defense Nuclear 
     Facilities Safety Board, and $300.0 million for defense-
     related activities.
       The two tables preceding the detailed program adjustments 
     in Division D of the accompanying joint statement of managers 
     summarize the discretionary authorizations in the agreement 
     and the equivalent budget authority levels for fiscal year 
     2019 defense programs.
     Budgetary effects of this Act (sec. 4)
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 4) that 
     would require that the budgetary effects of this Act be 
     determined in accordance with the procedures established in 
     the Statutory Pay-As-You-Go Act of 2010 (title I of Public 
     Law 111-139).
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes.

            DIVISION A--DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE AUTHORIZATIONS

                          Title I--Procurement


                              BUDGET ITEMS

     Columbia-class submarine advance procurement
       The budget request included $3.0 billion in line item 1 of 
     Shipbuilding and Conversion, Navy for Columbia-class 
     submarine advance procurement.
       The House bill would authorize an increase of $82.7 million 
     above the request.
       The Senate amendment would authorize the funding level in 
     the request.
       The agreement authorizes an increase of $237.0 million 
     above the request.
       The conferees' intent in authorizing additional funds for 
     submarine industrial base expansion is to ensure second- and 
     third-tier contractors are able to meet increased production 
     requirements.
       The conferees direct the Secretary of the Navy to notify 
     the congressional defense committees within 30 days of 
     obligating funds provided for submarine industrial base 
     expansion of the: obligation date, contractor name or names, 
     location, description of the shortfall to be addressed, 
     actions to be undertaken, desired end state, usable end items 
     to be procured, period of performance, dollar amount, 
     projected associated savings including business case analysis 
     if applicable, contract name, and contract number.
       The conferees believe that expanding the capabilities of 
     the second- and third-tier contractors in the submarine 
     industrial base should lead to greater cost savings and 
     improved efficiency as production increases to meet the 
     Columbia-class schedule and higher requirement for Virginia-
     class attack submarines in the Navy's latest Force Structure 
     Assessment.

              Subtitle A--Authorization of Appropriations

     Authorization of appropriations (sec. 101)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 101) that would 
     authorize appropriations for procurement at the levels 
     identified in section 4101 of division D of this Act.
       The Senate amendment contained a similar provision (sec. 
     101).
       The House recedes.

                       Subtitle B--Army Programs

     National Guard and reserve component equipment report (sec. 
         111)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 111) that would 
     require a joint assessment by the Army and National Guard on 
     efforts to achieve parity among the active component, the 
     Army Reserve, and the Army National Guard with respect to 
     equipment and capabilities.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes.
     Deployment by the Army of an interim cruise missile defense 
         capability (sec. 112)
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 111) that 
     would direct the Army to procure an alternate short-term 
     option to fill its cruise missile defense gap with existing 
     systems and accelerate the Indirect Fire Protection 
     Capability (IFPC) system independently of Integrated Air and 
     Missile Defense Battle Command System (IBCS) deployment, 
     leveraging entities such as the Defense Digital Service or 
     the Defense Innovation Unit Experimental, and to report the 
     determination of that short-term option to the congressional 
     defense committees no later than 90 days after the enactment 
     of this Act.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes with an amendment that would require the 
     Secretary of Defense to certify the need for the Army to fill 
     the gap in cruise missile defense prior to deployment of such 
     a capability, subject to appropriations. Further, the 
     amendment would urge the Army to consider a range of directed 
     energy solutions for the deployment of the 2023 interim 
     capability deployment date and remove the requirement for 
     locations of deployment for such a capability.
       The conferees are deeply concerned about the paucity of 
     land-based cruise missile defense capabilities and the Army's 
     corresponding inability to adequately protect the joint 
     force's fixed site systems, such as airfields and logistical 
     depots. Integrated air and missile defense is critical for 
     joint operations, but assets are not currently ready to 
     counter an adversary's potential complex, integrated attack, 
     thus leaving critical assets vulnerable. As outlined by the 
     National Defense Strategy, cruise missile defense is a 
     critical capability to defend against Russian and Chinese 
     threats. Without this capability, the committee is concerned 
     the U.S. Army will fail to successfully perform its mission 
     to protect the joint force.
       For these reasons, the conferees strongly urge the Army to 
     consider deployment of the interim capability be prioritized 
     in locations for deployment of air bases and significant 
     fixed site locations in Europe and Asia for the purpose of 
     the protection of such bases and locations against potential 
     cruise missile threats. The conferees further recommend that 
     the Army consider force structure requirements for the 
     interim capability and plan accordingly in order to ensure 
     full support of such a system once deployed.

                       Subtitle C--Navy Programs

     Procurement authority for Ford-class aircraft carrier program 
         (sec. 121)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 122) that would 
     authorize the construction of one Ford-class aircraft carrier 
     designated CVN-81.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes with an amendment that would require a 
     certification prior to awarding a contract authorized by this 
     provision.
       The conferees note that the Department of Defense has been 
     able to achieve program efficiencies and cost savings by 
     using multiyear and block buy contracting with many weapons 
     programs, to include shipbuilding. If the Department of the 
     Navy intends to pursue a two-ship procurement of CVN-80 and 
     CVN-81 outside the title 10, United States Code, parameters 
     for a multiyear contract, the conferees expect that entering 
     into such contract would be based on rigorous analysis with a 
     sound business case and substantial savings.
        Earlier this year, the Navy issued a request for proposal 
     soliciting information on a potential contract to acquire two 
     Ford-class aircraft carriers (CVN-80 and CVN-81). The 
     conferees are disappointed that no related information was 
     provided to the congressional defense committees to enable 
     fulsome consideration of the associated required legislative 
     authorities during the development of the National Defense 
     Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2019.
       Nonetheless, the conferees believe a two-ship procurement 
     of CVN-80 and CVN-81 could result in significant cost 
     savings. Accordingly, this provision would provide the 
     necessary authorities for implementing such an approach, if 
     the Secretary of Defense certifies supporting analysis 
     prepared and provided by the milestone decision authority for 
     the carrier replacement program, which is the Department of 
     the Navy Service Acquisition Executive.
       It is the conferees' intent that the Secretary of Defense 
     review such analysis and, if the Secretary deems it 
     appropriate, make the certification without performing any 
     separate cost assessments or analyses. The conferees view 
     such a process as consistent with ongoing efforts to reduce 
     the time associated with acquisition decisions, push 
     acquisition authorities and accountability to the Services, 
     and ensure that the Secretary of Defense retains visibility 
     and ultimate authority over acquisition matters in the 
     Department.
     Full ship shock trial for Ford-class aircraft carrier (sec. 
         122)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 123) that would 
     ensure that full ship shock trials results are incorporated 
     in the construction of the Ford-class aircraft carrier 
     designated CVN-81.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
        The Senate recedes.
     Sense of Congress on accelerated production of aircraft 
         carriers (sec. 123)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 121) that would 
     express the sense of Congress as to aircraft carrier force 
     structure. Additionally, this section would modify section 
     5062 of title 10, United States Code, by increasing the 
     required aircraft carrier force structure from 11 to 12 
     operational aircraft carriers by September 30, 2022.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes with an amendment that would express the 
     sense of Congress on accelerated production of aircraft 
     carriers.
     Multiyear procurement authority for standard missile-6 (sec. 
         124)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 125) that would 
     authorize the Secretary of the Navy to enter into one or more 
     multiyear contracts for 625 Standard Missile-6 missiles 
     beginning in fiscal year 2019, in accordance with section 
     2306b of title 10, United States Code.
       The Senate amendment contained a similar provision (sec. 
     125) that would authorize the Secretary of the Navy to enter 
     into multiyear contracts beginning in fiscal year 2019 for 
     the procurement of 625 Standard Missile-6 guided missiles 
     pending the Director of Cost Assessment and Program 
     Evaluation confirmation of the Secretary of the Navy's 
     preliminary findings as required in subsection a of section 
     2306b of title 10, United States Code.

[[Page H7459]]

       The Senate recedes with a technical amendment.
     Multiyear procurement authority for E-2D aircraft (sec. 125)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 126) that would 
     authorize multiyear procurement for E-2D aircraft.
       The Senate amendment contained a similar provision (sec. 
     122).
        The Senate recedes.
     Multiyear procurement authority for F/A-18E/F aircraft and 
         EA-18G aircraft (sec. 126)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 127) that would 
     authorize multiyear procurement for F/A-18E/F and EA-18G 
     aircraft.
       The Senate amendment contained a similar provision (sec. 
     121).
       The Senate recedes.
     Modifications to F/A-18 aircraft to mitigate physiological 
         episodes (sec. 127)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 128) that would 
     require the Secretary of the Navy to modify F/A-18 aircraft 
     to reduce the occurrence of, and mitigate the risk posed by, 
     physiological episodes affecting F/A-18 crewmembers.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes with an amendment that would eliminate 
     the requirement for the installation of an automatic ground 
     collision avoidance system.
       The conferees expect EA-18G aircraft to also receive the 
     modifications required in this provision.
     Frigate class ship program (sec. 128)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 129) that would 
     require, as part of the solicitation for proposals for the 
     procurement of any frigate class ship, that the Secretary of 
     the Navy require offerors to submit proposals that provide 
     for conveying technical data to the government. Additionally, 
     this provision would require the Secretary of the Navy to 
     ensure that the government's technical data rights are 
     sufficient to allow for specified follow-on activities.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes with an amendment that would remove the 
     requirement for the Secretary of the Navy to ensure that the 
     government's technical data rights are sufficient to allow 
     for specified follow-on activities and clarify the conditions 
     under which technical data shall be provided to the 
     government.
       The conferees' intent is to obtain sufficient technical 
     data to ensure the Navy has the option to compete the winning 
     frigate design in the future for production by at least one 
     additional shipbuilder, if the Navy's inventory objective for 
     FFG(X)-class ships merits such expansion. The conferees note 
     that the benefits of two shipbuilders building the same ship 
     design have been demonstrated in both the DDG-51 and CG-47 
     classes. The conferees do not intend for the winning frigate 
     offeror to provide technical data beyond what is needed for a 
     single-design, multiple-shipbuilder frigate acquisition 
     strategy or otherwise authorized by law.
     Contract requirement for Virginia class submarine program 
         (sec. 129)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 130) that would 
     modify section 124 of the National Defense Authorization Act 
     for Fiscal Year 2018 (Public Law 115-91) to prohibit the 
     Secretary of the Navy from entering into economic order 
     quantity contracts for the Virginia-class submarine program 
     until the Secretary certifies that such funding shall be used 
     to enter into economic order quantities for 12 Virginia-class 
     submarines.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes with an amendment that would require the 
     Secretary of the Navy to ensure that an option to procure one 
     additional Virginia-class submarine in each of fiscal years 
     2022 and 2023 is included in the associated multiyear 
     procurement contract award planned for fiscal year 2019.
     Prohibition on availability of funds for Navy port waterborne 
         security barriers (sec. 130)
       The Senate contained a provision (sec. 124) that would 
     prohibit funds from being used to procure new Navy port 
     waterborne security barriers unless the Secretary of the Navy 
     submits a waiver to the congressional defense committees.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes with an amendment that would apply the 
     prohibition of funds to legacy barriers; exempt the 
     sustainment, refurbishment, and replacement of portions of 
     existing waterborne security barriers; and exempt the 
     procurement of new barriers due to exigent circumstances.
     Extension of limitation on use of sole-source shipbuilding 
         contracts for certain vessels (sec. 131)
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 123) that 
     would extend to include fiscal year 2019 in the prohibition 
     on funds from being used to enter into, or prepare to enter 
     into, sole source contracts for one or more Joint High Speed 
     Vessels or Expeditionary Fast Transports, unless the 
     Secretary of the Navy submits to the congressional defense 
     committees a certification and a report.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes.
     Limitation on availability of funds for M27 Infantry 
         Automatic Rifle program (sec. 132)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 112) that would 
     prohibit the obligation and expenditure of not more than 80 
     percent of the funds for the Marine Corps M27 Infantry 
     Automatic Rifle program until a report is submitted to the 
     congressional defense committees on the service's assessment 
     of the Army's Small Arms Ammunition Configuration study and 
     the service's near- and long-term small arms modernization 
     strategy.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes.
     Report on degaussing standards for DDG-51 destroyers (sec. 
         133)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 131) that would 
     limit expenditures of Shipbuilding and Conversion, Navy, for 
     DDG-51 destroyers until the Secretary of the Navy submits a 
     report as to incorporating degaussing standards into the 
     destroyer program.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes with an amendment that would require a 
     report on degaussing standards for Arleigh Burke-class 
     destroyers.

                     Subtitle D--Air Force Programs

     Inventory requirement for air refueling tanker aircraft; 
         limitation on retirement of KC-10A aircraft (sec. 141)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 141) that would 
     require the Department of the Air Force to maintain a total 
     primary assigned aircraft inventory of air refueling tanker 
     aircraft of not less than 479. The provision would also place 
     limitations on the retirement of KC-10A aircraft.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes with an amendment that would change the 
     inventory requirement to 479 total aircraft.
     Multiyear procurement authority for C-130J aircraft program 
         (sec. 142)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 145) that would 
     provide multiyear procurement authority for C-130J aircraft.
       The Senate amendment contained a similar provision (sec. 
     151).
       The House recedes.
     Contract for logistics support for VC-25B aircraft (sec. 143)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 144) that would 
     ensure any contract for logistics support for the VC-25B 
     aircraft adheres to United States Code and the Federal 
     Acquisition Regulation.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes.
     Retirement date for VC-25A aircraft (sec. 144)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 143) that would 
     set the retirement date of the VC-25A aircraft at not later 
     than December 31, 2025.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes.
     Repeal of funding restriction for EC-130H Compass Call 
         Recapitalization Program (sec. 145)
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 143) that 
     would repeal Section 131 of the National Defense 
     Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2017 (Public Law 114-328; 
     130 Stat. 2037) and require the Secretary of the Air Force to 
     provide to the congressional defense committees periodic 
     reports on the EC-130H Compass Call Recapitalization program 
     and opportunities to accelerate the program.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes with an amendment that would eliminate 
     the required reports.
       The conferees expect to be regularly updated on the status 
     and progress of the Compass Call Recapitalization program. 
     The conferees expect such updates to include, at a minimum: 
     1) a program status update; 2) a description of potential 
     opportunities to accelerate the program and their associated 
     funding requirements; and 3) a current assessment of the 
     aircraft's operational effectiveness.
     Limitation on use of funds for KC-46A aircraft pending 
         submittal of certification (sec. 146)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 142) that would 
     limit the funds available for three KC-46A aircraft.

       The Senate recedes.
     Limitation on availability of funds for retirement of E-8 
         JSTARS Aircraft (sec. 147)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 214) that would 
     restrict the obligation of funding for the Advanced Battle 
     Management System (ABMS) of systems initiative of the Air 
     Force, as well as a portion of the proposed divestment of 
     legacy E-8C Joint Surveillance Target Attack Radar System 
     (JSTARS) aircraft contained in the fiscal year 2019 budget 
     request. The restriction would remain in effect until the 
     Secretary of the Air Force certifies that the JSTARS 
     Recapitalization (Recap) program is proceeding as previously 
     planned. The provision would also require the Comptroller 
     General of the United States and the Secretary of the Air 
     Force to provide reports to the congressional defense 
     committees on ABMS, JSTARS Recap, and the legacy JSTARS 
     fleet.
       The Senate amendment contained a similar provision (sec. 
     141) that would prohibit the availability of funds to retire, 
     or prepare to retire, any E-8 JSTARS aircraft.
       The House recedes with an amendment that would limit 
     retirement of legacy E-8C

[[Page H7460]]

     until Increment 2 of the Advanced Battle-Management System of 
     the Air Force declares Initial Operational Capability. The 
     amendment would also require the Secretary of Defense to 
     certify that the Secretary of the Air Force is: taking all 
     reasonable steps to ensure the legacy E-8C continues to meet 
     all safety of flight requirements and that the Air Force is 
     taking steps to increase the legacy JSTARS fleet's aircraft 
     availability and capacity provided to combatant commanders. 
     The amendment would also require reports be submitted to the 
     congressional defense committees by the Secretary of the Air 
     Force on the legacy E-8C fleet and by the Comptroller General 
     of the United States on ABMS.
       Finally, the conferees direct the Director, Cost Assessment 
     and Program Evaluation, Office of the Secretary of Defense, 
     to provide the congressional defense committees a report no 
     later than February 5, 2019, on a cost, schedule, and 
     implementation plan for restarting the dormant legacy E-8C 
     re-engining program that the Air Force originally initiated 
     in 2007. The conferees understand the Secretary of the Air 
     Force procured three ship-sets of engines, after investing 
     $450.0 million, and the engines remain unused. The conferees 
     note that the legacy E-8C engines are the number one issue 
     driving excessive non-mission capable maintenance metrics for 
     the E-8C fleet.
     Report on modernization of B-52H aircraft systems (sec. 148)
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 142) that 
     would require the Secretary of the Air Force to submit a 
     report on the long-term modernization of the B-52H aircraft.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes.
       The conferees note that the Air Force submitted a report on 
     B-52 modernization in February 2018. However, that report did 
     not include elements that the conferees believe to be 
     important considerations, particularly in light of the Air 
     Force's decision to continue operating the B-52 for the long-
     term. Such considerations include secure, jam-resistant 
     communications, future weapons and targeting capabilities, 
     and mission planning systems.

       Subtitle E--Defense-Wide, Joint, and Multiservice Matters

     Procurement authority for additional icebreaker vessels (sec. 
         151)
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 153) that 
     would amend section 122 of the National Defense Authorization 
     Act for Fiscal Year 2018 (Public Law 115-91) by striking 
     subsections (a) and (b), as well as providing authority to 
     enter into a contract or contracts for up to six polar-class 
     icebreakers.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes with an amendment that would provide the 
     secretary of the department in which the Coast Guard is 
     operating the authority to enter into a contract or contracts 
     for the procurement of up to five additional polar-class 
     icebreakers and express the sense of Congress regarding 
     polar-class icebreakers.
       The conferees note that section 207 of the Coast Guard 
     Authorization Act of 2015 (Public Law 114-120) provided 
     authority for the Commandant of the Coast Guard to enter into 
     a contract or contracts for the acquisition of polar 
     icebreakers and associated equipment using incremental 
     funding. The conferees further note the Fiscal Years 2019 
     through 2023 Future Years Homeland Security Program includes 
     $1.8 billion to fully fund 3 icebreakers. The conferees 
     understand that additional Department of Defense funds are 
     not required to procure icebreakers for the foreseeable 
     future. The conferees support the Coast Guard's stated goal 
     of building six icebreakers and believe achieving this 
     objective should be accomplished as expeditiously as 
     possible.
     Buy-to-budget acquisition of F-35 aircraft (sec. 152)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 151) that would

     Air Force, prior to entering into a contract for the 
     procurement of a fighter, attack, or fixed-wing training 
     aircraft, to certify that the aircraft to be procured would 
     include the most recent technological advancements necessary 
     to minimize the impact of physiological episodes on aircraft 
     crewmembers.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes.
     Armored commercial passenger-carrying vehicles (sec. 154)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 153) that would 
     require the implementation of recommendations made in the 
     Government Accountability Office report, GAO-17-513, titled, 
     ``Armored Commercial Vehicles: DOD Has Procurement Guidance, 
     but Army Could Take Actions to Enhance Inspections and 
     Oversight.'' The provision would also require the Secretary 
     of the Army to provide to the congressional defense 
     committees a briefing on the progress of implementation 
     efforts.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes.
     Quarterly updates on the F-35 Joint Strike Fighter program 
         (sec. 155)
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 152) that 
     would require the Under Secretary of Defense for Acquisition 
     and Sustainment to provide quarterly briefings to the 
     congressional defense committees on the status and progress 
     of the F-35 Joint Strike Fighter program.
       The Senate amendment contained another provision (sec. 
     5103) that would add an element addressing F-35 sustainment 
     to the quarterly briefings.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes with an amendment that would bring 
     forward the sunset of the provision from October 1, 2024 to 
     October 1, 2022.

                   Legislative Provisions Not Adopted

     Multiyear procurement authority for amphibious vessels
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 124) that would 
     authorize the Secretary of the Navy to enter into a multiyear 
     procurement for up to five San Antonio-class amphibious 
     transport dock ships with a Flight II configuration.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.

     the President's budget request for fiscal year 2020.
     Limitation on availability of funds for the Littoral Combat 
         Ship
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 126) that 
     would prohibit funds from being used to exceed the total 
     procurement quantity listed in revision five of the Littoral 
     Combat Ship acquisition strategy unless the Under Secretary 
     of Defense for Acquisition and Sustainment submits to the 
     congressional defense committees a certification.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes.
     Nuclear refueling of aircraft carriers

     remove the waiting period for the limitation on availability 
     of funds for EC-130H Compass Call recapitalization that was 
     put in place in section 135(a) of the National Defense 
     Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2018 (Public Law-91).
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes.
     Findings and sense of Congress regarding KC-46 aerial 
         refueling tankers
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 147) that would 
     express the sense of Congress on the KC-46A aircraft.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes.
       The conferees support, once KC-46A aircraft deliveries

     incremental development methods, which the conferees support. 
     As such the conferees are keenly interested in how the 
     Department implements such methods, to ensure good principles 
     of management and oversight are incorporated. In particular, 
     given how frequently the program is delivering features, it 
     is important to maintain transparency into costs and

     Complex Overhaul (RCOH) to support the fielding of the MQ-25 
     unmanned aerial vehicle.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes with an amendment that would require the 
     Navy to complete the necessary modifications to CVN-73's 
     compartments and infrastructure for MQ-25 alterations during 
     the ship's RCOH in order to allow completion of MQ-25 
     modifications and receipt of MQ-25 equipment in a single 
     follow-on ship maintenance period.
       The conferees believe that once fielded, the Navy should 
     prioritize deploying the MQ-25 to the Pacific area of 
     operations. In order to enable such deployments, the 
     conferees believe that it is imperative that CVN-73, as the 
     potential next forward deployed aircraft carrier, undergo the 
     necessary modifications and alterations during its RCOH to 
     enable MQ-25 operations as soon as practicable. However, the 
     conferees are aware that completing all of the necessary 
     modifications during the RCOH might put its timely completion 
     at risk.
       Therefore, the conferees direct the Navy to complete the 
     necessary MQ-25 modifications during CVN-73's RCOH that would 
     enable the completion of modifications and receipt of 
     equipment during a single follow-on maintenance availability. 
     Nothing in this language should be interpreted as prohibiting 
     the full installation of MQ-25 alterations and equipment 
     during RCOH should developments allow it.
       Additionally, the conferees expect future Navy budgets will 
     support this plan.

       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes.

     naval vessels that do not have a homeport be treated as being 
     homeported in the United States or Guam with regard to repair

     would define the term voyage repair.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.

     Report on effects of increased automation of defense 
         industrial base on manufacturing workforce
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 329) that would 
     require a report on effects of increased automation of 
     defense industrial base on manufacturing workforce.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes.
       The conferees note that increased automation in the defense 
     industrial base should be adopted in a manner that does not 
     adversely impact national security.
     Pilot programs on integration of military information support 
         and civil affairs activities
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 331) that 
     would authorize the commanders of the geographic combatant 
     commands and U.S. Special Operations Command to carry out 
     pilot programs for the integration of military information 
     support and civil affairs activities in support of the 
     theater campaign plans of such combatant command.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes.
       The conferees believe that Department of Defense (DOD) 
     civil affairs and military information support activities are 
     complementary and reinforcing and are an important tool to 
     support the military objectives of the combatant commands. 
     Furthermore, especially in an Embassy-based environment, such 
     activities by DOD personnel can be further complemented and 
     reinforced by public diplomacy activities of the State 
     Department and stabilization or development activities by the 
     U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID). The 
     conferees believe these efforts can be better leveraged to 
     provide whole of government solutions to a rapidly evolving 
     global security environment.
       The conferees also note that the process for funding the 
     execution of military information support and civil affairs 
     activities often does not align with operational timelines or 
     involves fiscal authorities that are misaligned to the 
     purpose of the activity. Furthermore, the conferees believe 
     that reserve component military information support and civil 
     affairs personnel could be better utilized to augment special 
     operations forces. Therefore, the conferees direct the 
     Assistant Secretary of Defense for Special Operations and Low 
     Intensity Conflict, in coordination with the Commander of 
     U.S. Special Operations Command, to submit a report on civil 
     affairs and military information support to the Committees on 
     Armed Services of the Senate and the House of Representatives 
     not later than March 1, 2019. At a minimum, the report shall 
     provide:
       (1) A review of the funding mechanisms and fiscal 
     authorities available to support civil affairs and military 
     information support activities and challenges, if any, in 
     utilizing existing funding mechanisms and fiscal authorities;
       (2) Recommendations for new authorities or modifications to 
     existing authorities that would help to facilitate the 
     execution of civil affairs and military information support 
     activities and the integration of such activities with other 
     complementary efforts by the State Department and USAID;
       (3) Recommendations for new authorities or modifications to 
     existing authorities that would help to improve the 
     utilization of reserve component civil affairs and military 
     information support personnel to augment special operations 
     forces; and
       (4) Any other matters deemed relevant by the Assistant 
     Secretary.
     Restriction on upgrades to aviation demonstration team 
         aircraft
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 333) that 
     would prohibit the Secretary of Defense from upgrading the 
     type, model, or series of aircraft used by a military service 
     for its fixed-wing aviation demonstration teams, including 
     the Blue Angels and Thunderbirds aircraft, until the 
     Service's active and reserve duty squadrons and weapons 
     training schools have replaced 100 percent of the existing 
     type, model, and series of aircraft unless the Secretary 
     grants a waiver to upgrade for the purposes of pilot safety.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes.
       The conferees note the valuable contributions to morale and 
     public relations made by

[[Page H7468]]

     the Department of Defense's fixed-wing aviation demonstration 
     teams, including the Blue Angels and Thunderbirds. However, 
     the conferees believe operational squadrons, including guard, 
     reserve, training, and weapons and tactics squadrons must be 
     given priority in the fielding of upgraded aircraft over any 
     demonstration team. The conferees expect the Department to 
     prioritize operational squadrons in their decisions regarding 
     fielding of aircraft.
     Report on personal protective equipment requirements for 
         civil response teams to volcanic activity
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 336) that would 
     require the Secretary of Defense, in coordination with the 
     Secretary of Health and Human Services, the Administrative of 
     the Federal Emergency Management Agency, and the Director of 
     the United States Geological Survey, to submit a report on 
     personal protective equipment requirements for civil defense 
     response teams to volcanic activity and civilian communities 
     in the vicinity of active volcanic activity, including 
     protection against sulfur dioxide gas.

       The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes.
       The conferees recognize the importance of a robust domestic 
     capability to conduct explosive ordnance disposal and to 
     counter improvised explosive devices. The conferees also 
     recognize that the Department of Defense should provide an 
     important supporting role to other Federal agencies leading 
     efforts to address these challenges in the United States. The 
     conferees note that interagency cooperation across the 
     Federal government on these issues is vital. Therefore, the 
     conferees direct the Secretary of Defense to brief the 
     Committees on Armed Services of the Senate and the House of 
     Representatives, no later than February 1, 2019, on the role 
     of the Department of Defense as part of the interagency 
     effort to address domestic incidents of explosive ordnance 
     disposal, counter improvised explosive devices, and develop 
     potential methods to increase cooperation between the 
     Department of Defense and other Federal agencies.

       The House recedes.
     Demonstration program on accession of candidates with 
         auditory impairments as Air Force officers
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 507) that would 
     require the Secretary of the Air Force to assess the 
     feasibility and advisability of permitting individuals with 
     auditory impairments (including deafness) to access as 
     officers of the Air Force.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes.

     maternal mortality among members of the Armed Forces and 
     their dependents not later than 180 days after the date of 
     the enactment of this Act.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.

     enactment of this Act, a report, which includes data on 
     maternal (pregnancy-related) and infant mortality rates in 
     the direct and purchased care sectors of the military health 
     system (MHS) and provides a comparison with maternal 
     (pregnancy-related) and infant mortality rates in the United

     would amend section 621 of title 10, United States Code, to 
     require that service secretaries establish competitive 
     categories by grouping officers occupying similar 
     qualifications, specialties, occupations, or ratings. The 
     provision would also prohibit the practice of requiring 
     service secretaries to provide consistent promotion timing or 
     promotion opportunity among various competitive categories in 
     each military Service.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes.
     Promotion zone matters
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 509) that 
     would amend section 623 of title 10, United States Code, to 
     require service secretaries to align officer promotion zones 
     with desired officer management outcomes described in the 
     Annual Defense Manpower Requirements Report. The provision 
     would also prohibit service secretaries from determining the 
     number of officers in a promotion zone on the basis of the 
     year in which officers receive their original appointment to 
     their current grade, a practice commonly referred as ``year 
     group management.''
       The House bill contained no similar provision.

[[Page H7476]]

     Robert T. Stafford Disaster Relief and Emergency Assistance 
     Act (Public Law 100-707) to authorize the President to make 
     contributions to a State or local government for the purpose 
     of reimbursing the Department of Defense for expenditures 
     that arise from use of members of the National Guard and 
     Reserve to respond to a major disaster declared by the 
     President.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes.
       The conferees note that similar authority to reimburse 
     State or local governments for disaster relief services 
     provided by the Department of Defense already exists under 
     section 5170b of title 42, United States Code.

         members of the Army National Guard to support civil 
         authorities
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 519) that would 
     authorize the Secretary of the Army to carry out a pilot

       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes.
     Correction of military records website
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 524) that would 
     amend section 1552(a)(5) of title 10, United States Code, to 
     require the Secretary of Defense to publish an indexed 
     summary of each Board for Correction of Military Records 
     decision.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes.
       The conferees note the substantial changes that have been 
     made to the boards for correction of military records and 
     discharge review boards over the past several years. While 
     these provisions have greatly enhanced an applicant's ability 
     to have their application thoroughly and fairly considered by 
     the board, it has also increased the processing time for 
     these actions. These additional protections, coupled with the 
     boards' staff and information technology limitations, have 
     resulted in several of the boards repeatedly failing to meet 
     congressionally-mandated processing times. As a result, the 
     conferees direct the secretaries of the military departments 
     to each provide a report by February 1, 2019, analyzing the 
     causes of their backlogs, what efforts are being undertaken 
     to remedy these backlogs, and what additional resources are 
     needed to meet congressionally-mandated processing times.
     Modification of DD Form 214 to include email addresses
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 525) that would

     location in which a member of the Armed Forces may provide 
     one or more email addresses by which the member may be 
     contacted.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes.
     Public availability of reports related to senior leader 
         misconduct
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 526) that would 
     require the Secretary of Defense and the Secretaries of the 
     military departments to publish, on a public website, 
     redacted reports of substantiated investigations of 
     misconduct in which the subject of the investigation was an 
     officer in the grade of O-7 and above, including officers who 
     have been selected for promotion to O-7, or a civilian member 
     of the Senior Executive Service.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes.
     Appointment and training of personnel to staff the Board of 
         Corrections for Military and Naval Records
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 527) that would 
     require the Secretary of Defense, in consultation with the 
     service secretaries and the Joint Chiefs, to provide for the 
     appointment and training of qualified personnel to join the 
     staff of the Boards of Correction for Military and Naval 
     Records, and would authorize $3.0 million to carry out the 
     training.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes.
       The conferees encourage the service secretaries to ensure 
     that individuals assigned to these boards are carefully 
     selected from individuals with appropriate experience and 
     that they are trained to perform those duties.
     Entrepreneurial sabbatical for scientists employed at defense 
         laboratories
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 528) that would 
     authorize the Secretary of Defense to prescribe regulations 
     that permit scientists employed at defense laboratories to 
     take unpaid sabbaticals to work in the private sector.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes.
       The conferees direct the Department of Defense to provide a 
     report within a year of the enactment of this Act on the 
     execution of existing authorities for sabbaticals across the 
     Department of Defense laboratories. The committees note their 
     support for entrepreneurial leave practices and activities at 
     Army Research Lab and the Department of Energy laboratory 
     system, as well as industry and academic exchange programs.

         sex-related offenses committed by members of the Armed 
         Forces

     to require a minimum confinement period of 2 years for 
     individuals convicted of certain sex-related offenses.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes.
     Modification of Military Rules of Evidence to exclude 
         admissibility of general military character toward 
         probability of innocence in any offense not strictly 
         related to performance of military duties
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 534) that would 
     amend Rule 404(a) of the Military Rules of Evidence contained 
     in the Manual for Courts-Martial to provide that the general 
     military character of an accused is not admissible for the 
     purpose of showing the probability of innocence of the 
     accused unless the offense is strictly and solely related to 
     the performance of military duties.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes.
       The conferees encourage the Secretary of Defense to direct 
     the Joint Service Committee on Military Justice to examine 
     this issue and provide the findings and recommendations of 
     the study to the Committees on Armed Services of the Senate 
     and House of Representatives no later than February 1, 2019.
     Repeal of 15-year statute of limitations on motions or 
         requests for review of discharge or dismissal from the 
         Armed Forces
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 535) that 
     would amend section 1553 of title 10, United States Code, to 
     repeal the 15-year statute of limitations on filing claims 
     for review of a discharge or dismissal by service discharge 
     review boards.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes.
     Treatment of claims relating to military sexual trauma in 
         correction of military records and review of discharge or 
         dismissal proceedings
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 536) that 
     would amend sections 1552 and 1553 of title 10, United States 
     Code, to clarify the treatment of claims for review of a 
     discharge or dismissal relating to military sexual trauma in 
     correction of military records and review of discharge or 
     dismissal proceedings.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes.
     Consideration of application for transfer for a student of a 
         military service academy who is the victim of a sexual 
         assault or related offense
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 542) that would 
     require the Secretary concerned to expedite the consideration 
     and approval of an application for an inter-academy transfer 
     submitted by a cadet of a military academy who has been the 
     victim of sexual assault.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes.
       The Conferees believe that providing an option for a cadet 
     or midshipman, who was sexually assaulted, to request a 
     transfer to another academy should be explored. Therefore, 
     the conferees direct the Secretary of Defense to study the 
     feasibility of establishing a process to accommodate such 
     request and provide a briefing on the results of the study to 
     the Committee on Armed Services of the Senate and the House 
     of Representatives not later than March 1, 2019. If the 
     Secretary determines it is feasible to establish a process, 
     the briefing should include any legislative authorities 
     required.

       The Senate recedes.

       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes.

     Consecutive service of service obligation in connection with 
         payment of tuition for off-duty training or education for 
         commissioned officers of the Armed Forces with any other 
         service obligations
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 551) that 
     would amend section 2007(b) of title 10, United States Code, 
     to require an Active-Duty service obligation incurred by an 
     officer for the acceptance of tuition assistance for off-duty 
     training or education be served sequentially with any other 
     service obligation already incurred by the officer.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes.
       The conferees note that officers who accept tuition 
     assistance for off-duty education incur an active duty 
     service obligation. Tuition assistance is an important 
     retention tool and a particularly valuable benefit at a time 
     when costs for education continue to increase. Therefore the 
     conferees direct the Comptroller General of the United States 
     to conduct a review of retention data associated with 
     officers who accept tuition assistance payments. This review 
     should, at a minimum, include the following elements: (1) The 
     average annual number of officer personnel who accept tuition 
     assistance, (2) The average number of years of commissioned 
     service of officers when beginning to accept tuition 
     assistance, (3) The average number of additional years an 
     officer is retained on active duty following completion of 
     tuition assistance payments; and (4) An assessment of the 
     effect of switching the active duty service obligation for 
     accepting tuition assistance from a policy that allows 
     tuition assistance service obligations to be served 
     concurrent to other service commitments an officer may have, 
     to a policy that requires tuition assistance service 
     obligations be served consecutively with any other active 
     duty service obligation.
       The conferees direct the Comptroller General of the United 
     States to provide preliminary observations to the Committees 
     on Committees on Armed Services of the Senate and the House 
     of Representatives by the end of February 2019. At that time, 
     a final product due date will be determined.
     Extension of pilot program to assist members in obtaining 
         post-service employment
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 555) that would

     pilot program under this section to September 30, 2023.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes.

       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 556) that would

     assistance for members of the National Guard and Reserve.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes.
     Comptroller General briefing and report on permanent 
         employment assistance centers
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 558) that would 
     require the Comptroller General of the United States to 
     provide a briefing to the Armed Services Committees of the 
     Senate and House of Representatives, with a report to follow, 
     on employment assistance required under the law and related 
     information regarding civilian employment certification.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes.
       The conferees note the importance of ensuring military 
     skills and experience can be applied to gainful civilian 
     employment and therefore direct the Comptroller General of 
     the United States to conduct a review of the employment 
     assistance programs authorized by section 1143 of title 10, 
     United States Code, and to provide preliminary observations 
     to the Committees on Armed Services of the Senate and the 
     House of Representatives by the end of February 2019. At that 
     time, a final product due date will be determined.
       The review shall include: (1) A description of the content 
     of any relevant databases used to record training performed 
     by servicemembers that may by applicable for future civilian 
     employment; (2) A listing and description, to include usage 
     rates, of employment assistance centers within the Department 
     of Defense (DOD) and Department of Homeland Security (DHS); 
     (3) An assessment of DOD and DHS procedures to release 
     servicemember names and other pertinent information to 
     civilian employers, organizations, and State employment 
     agencies; and (4) An evaluation of the ability of DOD to 
     confirm the accuracy and authenticity of a servicemember's 
     certifications upon a State's request within the required 5 
     business day timeline.
  

     Activities to increase awareness of apprenticeship programs
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 559) that would 
     require the Secretary of Defense to include, as part of 
     service members' transition counseling, information on 
     apprenticeship programs and the use of veterans' benefits to 
     pay for these programs.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes.
       The conferees note that apprenticeships provide a valuable 
     career option for separating servicemembers and encourage the 
     Department of Defense to ensure information on apprenticeship 
     programs, and appropriate funding options, is easily 
     accessible to those servicemembers who may be interested in 
     pursuing an apprenticeship upon separating from the military.
     Report on availability of college credit for skills acquired 
         during military service
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 560A) that would

       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 560B) that would 
     require the Secretary of Defense to ensure that a separating

     their Department of Defense form DD-214 transmitted to the 
     appropriate county veterans service office.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes.

       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 560D) that would 
     require the Secretary of Defense, in coordination with the 
     Secretaries of Veterans Affairs, Labor, Education, and 
     Homeland Security, and the Administrator of the Small 
     Business Administration, to establish a pilot program through 
     the Transition to Veterans Program Office that fosters 
     contact between veterans and the Department of Defense.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes.
     Additional matters for assessment and report on childcare 
         services of the Department of Defense
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 562) that would 
     add additional issues for assessment related to military 
     family childcare under the report required by section 575 of 
     the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2018 
     (Public Law 115-91).
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes.
       The conferees note that Senate report accompanying S. 2987 
     (S. Rept. 115-262) directs the Department of Defense to 
     include in its assessment of the use of subsidized, off-
     installation childcare services, required by subsection (a) 
     of section 575 of the National Defense Authorization Act for 
     Fiscal Year 2018 (Public Law 115-91), an assessment on 
     modifying the rate of use of subsidized, off-installation 
     childcare services by military families in light of the full 
     implementation of MilitaryChildCare.com, including whether 
     the availability of off-installation childcare services for 
     military families could be increased by altering policies of 
     the Armed Forces on capping the amount of subsidies for 
     military families for such services based on the cost of 
     living for families and the average cost of civilian 
     childcare services.
     Flexible maternity and parental leave
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 566) that would 
     require the Secretary of Defense to establish and implement 
     policies and procedures that permit a military parent to 
     take, if requested by the military parent, flexible and non-
     continuous maternity and parental leave.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.

     new section that would restrict the President and service 
     secretaries from revoking a military decoration after the 
     actual award of the military decoration to the service member 
     except under limited circumstances.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes.
     Authorization for award of Expeditionary Medal to certain 
         Marines for actions on June 8, 1995
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 572) that would 
     authorize the Secretary of Defense to award the Armed Forces 
     Expeditionary Medal to a member or former member of the 24th 
     Marine Expeditionary Unit for the mission to rescue Captain 
     Scott O'Grady.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.

     Report on awards for cost-saving ideas
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 575) that would 
     require the Secretary of Defense to submit a report on: (1) 
     The total number of awards and commendations presented to any 
     military personnel for a cost-saving idea during the prior 
     fiscal year; (2) A total estimate of the total savings as a 
     result of the implementation of cost-saving ideas for which 
     an award or commendation was presented; and (3) A description 
     of how the Secretary plans to expand incentive programs for 
     the purpose described in this section and streamline such 
     programs.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes.
       The conferees are supportive of recent Department of 
     Defense initiatives to redesign or streamline processes to 
     save taxpayer dollars. However, while major department-wide 
     savings are important, frequently military and civilian 
     personnel identify smaller cost-saving opportunities in the 
     course of performing their normal duties. These cost-saving 
     ideas are frequently unnoticed or ignored by the chains of 
     command, resulting in lost opportunities to address needless 
     waste and inefficiency. The conferees encourage service 
     secretaries to take demonstrable steps to empower their 
     personnel to identify and implement cost-saving ideas 
     whenever possible, and widely publicize successes to achieve 
     greater savings at scale.
     Pilot program on participation of military spouses in 
         Transition Assistance Program activities
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 575) that 
     would require the Secretary of Defense to conduct a pilot 
     program, at not fewer than five military installations, to 
     assess the feasibility and advisability of permitting 
     military spouses to participate in activities under the 
     Transition Assistance Program. The Secretary would carry out 
     the pilot program during the 5-year period beginning on the 
     date of the enactment of this Act. The provision would 
     require the Secretary to submit an initial report describing 
     the pilot program to the Committees on Armed Services of the 
     Senate and the House of Representatives within 6 months after 
     the date of the enactment of this Act. In addition, the 
     Secretary would submit a final report to the same committees 
     within 6 months after completion of the pilot program.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes.
     Eligibility of veterans of Operation End Sweep for Vietnam 
         Service Medal
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 576) that would 
     authorize the service secretaries, upon the application of an 
     individual who is a veteran who participated in Operation End 
     Sweep, to award that individual the Vietnam Service Medal.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes.

     service connection for a future illness or injury.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes.
     Cybersecurity educational programs and awareness in Junior 
         Reserve Officers' Training Corps
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 587) that would 
     require the Secretaries of the military departments to 
     encourage the Junior Reserve Officers' Training Corps (JROTC) 
     to include cybersecurity educational programs and awareness 
     in the curriculum of the Corps, including lessons on cyber 
     defense, risks of cybersecurity vulnerabilities in the 
     military, and pursuing studies and careers in cybersecurity 
     and related fields within the Department of Defense.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes.
       The conferees note that numerous JROTC programs are already 
     developing cyber-related educational programs as well as 
     participating in cyber competitions and events. The conferees 
     are supportive of these efforts and encourage service 
     secretaries to search for and develop additional 
     opportunities to provide cyber-related experience to JROTC 
     participants and units.
     Publication of guidance and information on housing markets 
         near certain military installations

     assist members of the Armed Forces in better using their 
     basic allowance for housing.

       The House recedes.

         members of the Armed Forces undergoing deployment and 
         their families beyond the Yellow Ribbon Reintegration 
         Program
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 589) that would 
     amend section 582 of the National Defense Authorization Act 
     for Fiscal Year 2008 (Public Law 110-181) to require the 
     Secretary of Defense to provide funding to the States to 
     carry out programs that provide deployment cycle information, 
     services, and referrals to servicemembers, in both the active 
     and reserve components, and their families throughout the 
     deployment cycle.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes.
     Exemption from repayment of voluntary separation pay
       The House bill included a provision (sec. 590) that would 
     amend section 1175a(j) of title 10, United States Code, to 
     exempt servicemembers involuntarily recalled to active duty

     such duty from the requirement to repay voluntary separation 
     pay.
       The Senate amendment included no similar provision.
       The House recedes.

     serve in the Armed Forces as a remotely piloted aircraft 
     pilot or remotely piloted aircraft sensor operator in the Air 
     Force.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes.
     Transportation of remains of casualties; travel expenses for 
         next of kin
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 592) that would 
     amend section 562 of the John Warner National Defense 
     Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2007 (Public Law 109-364) 
     to require the Secretary of Defense to extend travel 
     privileges via international travel authorization to family 
     members of servicemembers who die outside of the United 
     States and whose remains are returned to the United States 
     through the mortuary facility at Dover Air Force Base,

     amend section 1408 of title 10, United States Code, to remove 
     the limitations on the amount of disposable retired pay that 
     would be subject to garnishment of retired pay to satisfy a 
     judgement rendered for abuse of a child.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes.
       The conferees note that sections 8345 and 8467 of title 5, 
     United States Code, currently provide for the garnishment of 
     federal civilian retirement payments, without limitation on 
     the amount of disposable retired pay subject to garnishment, 
     in accordance with the terms of a court order or similar 
     process in the nature of garnishment for the enforcement of a 
     judgment against the annuitant for physically, sexually, or 
     emotionally abusing a child. However, section 1408 of title 
     10, United States Code, limits the amount of disposable 
     military retired pay subject to garnishment for such 
     judgments to 25 percent. The conferees therefore direct the 
     Secretary of Defense, no later than February 1, 2019, to 
     provide a briefing to the Committees on Armed Services of the 
     Senate and the House of Representatives on the advisability 
     and feasibility of removing the 25 percent cap on garnishment 
     of disposable military retired pay.

     Commandant of the United States Air Force Institute of 
     Technology as the President of the United States Air Force 
     Institute of Technology.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes.

       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 594) that would 
     require the Secretary of Defense to encourage the military 
     departments to transition training manuals, emergency 
     guidance, and other publications needed to train members of 
     the Armed Forces to applications on mobile telephones that 
     use innovative technologies and provide for interaction 
     between trainees and information needed to complete training 
     in a manner that is cost efficient.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provisions.
       The House recedes.
       The conferees are aware of ongoing Department of Defense 
     efforts to transition various manuals and other documents to 
     electronic formats. These efforts are critical to increase 
     the effectiveness of information transfer and better align 
     the Department of Defense with private sector best practices. 
     The conferees urge the Secretary of Defense to continue 
     transitioning all hard-copy manuals, publications, and other 
     documents into electronic format suitable for viewing on 
     mobile devices.

       The Senate recedes.
       The conferees are concerned with how the Services evaluate 
     the effectiveness and efficiency of their marketing efforts. 
     This Act contains a provision requiring the Army to provide a 
     comprehensive evaluation of the Army Marketing and 
     Advertising Program. However, the conferees are concerned 
     that the other Services may also lack sufficient data to 
     properly evaluate the effectiveness and efficiency of their 
     marketing efforts. Therefore, the conferees direct the 
     Secretary of Defense to provide a briefing, no later than 
     February 1, 2019, on the feasibility and advisability of 
     standardizing the methods for collecting marketing data in 
     support of effectiveness and efficiency evaluations.
     Addressing attrition levels of women in the military
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 595) that would 
     require the Secretary of Defense to develop and carry out an 
     exit survey to be completed by members of the Armed Forces to 
     assist the Secretary to assess the reasons that attrition 
     levels for women are higher than for men at various career 
     points not later than 1 year after the date of enactment of

     naval officers serving as President of the Naval Postgraduate 
     School, Commandant of Midshipmen at the Naval Academy,

     deployments.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.

     Prohibition on per diem allowance reductions based on the 
         duration of temporary duty assignment or civilian travel 
         (sec. 603)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 605) that would 
     halt implementation of the 2014 Department of Defense per 
     diem policy, direct the Secretary of Defense to issue a 
     report on options to reduce travel costs, and require 
     notification of any subsequent changes to the per diem 
     policies following the report.
       The Senate amendment contained a similar provision (sec. 
     631) that would require the Secretary of Defense to submit a 
     report to the Committees on Armed Services of the Senate and 
     the House of Representatives by no later than 120 days after 
     enactment of this Act providing a cost-benefit analysis of 
     the long-term per diem policy rate change that became 
     effective on November 1, 2014, consistent with the principles 
     and requirements of Office of Management and Budget Circular 
     A-94. The Senate provision would further provide that should 
     the Secretary fail to deliver this analysis within 120 days 
     after enactment of this Act, or if the analysis demonstrates 
     that the costs of this policy change outweigh the benefits, 
     and would continue to outweigh the benefits, then the policy 
     would revert to the policy in effect as of October 31, 2014.
       The Senate amendment contained another similar provision 
     (sec. 632) that would amend section 474(d)(3) of title 37, 
     United States Code, to prohibit the Department of Defense 
     from reducing per diem rates based on the duration of a 
     temporary duty assignment or civilian travel.
       The Senate recedes on section 631 of the Senate amendment. 
     The House recedes on section 605 of the House bill and 
     section 632 of the Senate amendment. The conference agreement 
     includes Section 632 of the Senate amendment.
     Extension of parking expenses allowance to civilian employees 
         at recruiting facilities (sec. 604)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 623) that would 
     amend section 481i of title 37, United States Code, to allow

     at recruiting facilities.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes.

     while absent from a position of employment with the Federal 
     Government.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes.
     Military Housing Privatization Initiative (sec. 606)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 604) that would 
     assure that the Basic Allowance for Housing reduction 
     directed by section 403 of title 10, United States Code, 
     would not take effect in fiscal year 2019, ensuring that the 
     Military Housing Privatization Initiative (MHPI) housing 
     recapitalization efforts are not reduced. The committee 
     remains concerned about the reduction in BAH and its effect 
     on the recapitalization of these housing units. The committee 
     believes that military families must be provided with on-base 
     housing that is safe and periodically modernized. 
     Additionally, this section would require the Secretary of 
     Defense to present a plan to the Committees on Armed Services 
     of the Senate and the House of Representatives by December 1,

       The Senate recedes with an amendment that would authorize 
     additional payments only to those MHPI projects in existence 
     on or before September 30, 2014.

         authorities (sec. 611)

     States Code, by the National Defense Authorization Act for 
     Fiscal Year 2008 (Public Law 110-181). Additionally, this 
     section would extend the authority of the Secretary of 
     Defense to prescribe a temporary increase in the rates of

     Officers' Training Corps.
       The Senate provision would also extend for 1 year the 
     authority to pay hazardous duty pay, assignment or special 
     duty pay, skill incentive or proficiency bonus, and retention 
     incentives for members qualified in critical military skills 
     or assigned to high priority units.
       The Senate provision would also extend for 1 year the 
     authority to pay the nurse officer candidate accession bonus 
     and education loan repayment for certain health professionals 
     who serve in the Selected Reserve.
       The Senate provision would also extend for 1 year the 
     authority to pay the special bonus and incentive pay for 
     nuclear officers.

     members experiencing extended and frequent mobilization for 
     Active-Duty service.
       The Senate provision would also extend for 1 year the 
     authority of the Secretary of Defense to temporarily increase 
     the rate of the Basic Allowance for Housing in areas impacted 
     by natural disasters or experiencing a sudden influx of 
     personnel.

         621)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 629) that would 
     amend Chapter 54 of title 10, United States Code, to extend 
     eligibility for commissary and morale, welfare, and 
     recreation (MWR) privileges to certain veterans and veterans' 
     caregivers. This provision would authorize the Secretary to

     merchandise at a commissary or MWR resale facility that would 
     offset any increase in expenses arising from this provision.

     award personal protective equipment (PPE) of the member or 
     veteran that was damaged during deployment to veterans or 
     members separating from the Armed Forces.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes with an amendment that would make awards

     2001, and require any PPE award to be demilitarized and 
     certified as safe prior to awards.
  

     Space-available travel on Department of Defense aircraft for 
         veterans with service-connected disabilities rated as 
         total (sec. 624)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 622) that would 
     amend section 2641b of title 10, United States Code, to 
     authorize space-available travel for disabled veterans with a 
     service-connected, permanent disability rated as total.
       The Senate amendment contained a similar provision (sec. 
     570) that would amend section 2641b of title 10, United 
     States Code, to authorize veterans with a permanent service-
     connected total disability rating to travel on military 
     aircraft on a space-available basis. The committee notes that 
     this provision would also ensure the primary purpose of 
     space-available travel remains transporting servicemembers 
     and their dependents.
       The House recedes.
       The conferees note with disappointment that the report on 
     this topic mandated by the National Defense Authorization Act 
     for Fiscal Year 2017 (Public Law 114-328) is over one year 
     late and reiterate their interest in the results of the 
     requested analysis.
     Mandatory increase in insurance coverage under 
         Servicemembers' Group Life Insurance for members deployed 
         to combat theaters of operation (sec. 625)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 603) that would 
     amend section 1967(a)(3) of title 38, United States Code, to 
     mandate, in the case of a member who elects to not be insured 
     under a Servicemembers' Group Life Insurance (SGLI) plan at 
     the maximum available coverage, an automatic increase in SGLI 
     coverage to the maximum level if the servicemember is 
     deployed to a combat zone.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes.
     Access to military installations for certain surviving 
         spouses and other next of kin of members of the Armed 
         Forces who die while on active duty or certain reserve 
         duty (sec. 626)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 621) that would 
     require service secretaries to provide for issuance of a 
     standardized Gold Star Installation Access Card to the widow 
     and dependent children of a deceased servicemember to 
     facilitate their ability to gain unescorted access to 
     military installations for the purpose of attending events, 
     visiting gravesites, and obtaining benefits and services to 
     which they are entitled or eligible. The provision would also 
     authorize service secretaries to provide installation access 
     cards to parents and other next of kin of a deceased 
     servicemember.
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 570) that 
     would require the Secretary of Defense, acting jointly with 
     the Secretary of Homeland Security, to establish procedures 
     whereby an eligible surviving spouse and certain other next 
     of kin of members of the Armed Forces may obtain access 
     without escort, as appropriate, to military installations to 
     receive benefits to which they may be entitled by law or 
     policy. This provision would require establishment of such 
     procedures not later than 1 year after the date of the 
     enactment of this Act.
       The House recedes with a technical amendment.
     Study and report on development of a single defense resale 
         system (sec. 627)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 625) that would 
     require the Secretary of Defense to conduct a study to 
     determine the feasibility of consolidating military resale 
     entities into a single defense resale system. The provision 
     would require the Secretary to provide a report on the study 
     to the congressional defense committees not later than 
     January 1, 2019. Additionally, the provision would prohibit 
     the obligation or expenditure of any funds authorized to be 
     appropriated, or otherwise made available in this Act, for 
     the purpose of implementing consolidation of the military 
     resale entities until October 1, 2019.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes.

                   Legislative Provisions Not Adopted

     Prompt review of request for imminent danger pay
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 601) that would 
     amend section 310 of title 37, United States Code, to require 
     the Secretary of Defense to issue a determination, within 90 
     days, when a geographic combatant commander submits a request 
     to add a location to the Imminent Danger Pay eligibility 
     list.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes.
       The conferees note that Imminent Danger Pay (IDP) is 
     designed to provide additional compensation to servicemembers 
     on duty in an area in which the member was in imminent danger 
     of being exposed to hostile fire. Despite this statutory 
     language, the Department of Defense has been slow in amending 
     the list of geographic areas where deployed servicemembers 
     would be eligible for IDP. This is particularly troubling 
     given the global nature and geographic unpredictability of 
     today's conflicts.
       In 2017, the Department's delays in modifying its IDP 
     policy resulted in servicemembers deployed to Niger, Mali, 
     and northern Cameroon being ineligible for IDP payments 
     despite suffering several casualties and being routinely 
     exposed to hostile fire. The Department of Defense took 
     nearly 9 months to rectify its error after four 
     servicemembers were killed while deployed to Africa.
       These delays in updating the Department's IDP policy caused 
     unnecessary financial frustration and hardship for 
     servicemembers deployed to Africa to include the families of 
     four servicemembers who were tragically killed while deployed 
     to Niger. Therefore the

[[Page H7481]]

     committee strongly encourages the Secretary of Defense to 
     make determinations on requests for IDP within ninety days of 
     receiving such requests.
     Fiscal year 2019 increase in military basic pay
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 601) that 
     would authorize a pay raise of 2.6 percent for all members of 
     the uniformed services effective January 1, 2019.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes.
       The conferees note that current law authorizes automatic 
     military pay raises consistent with the Economic Cost Index, 
     which for calendar year 2019 amounts to a 2.6 percent raise 
     in basic pay for all members of the uniformed services.
     Application of basic allowance for housing to members of the 
         uniformed services in the Virgin Islands
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 602) that would 
     amend section 403 of title 37, United States Code, to apply 
     Basic Allowance for Housing to service members in the Virgin 
     Islands.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes.
     Department of Defense proposal for a pay table for members of 
         the Armed Forces using steps in grade based on time in 
         grade rather than time in service
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 603) that 
     would require the Secretary of Defense to submit a proposal 
     for a time in grade-based pay table for military personnel. 
     This provision would also require the Comptroller General to 
     review the proposal and assess its effect on recruitment and 
     retention.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes.
     Modification of authority of President to determine 
         alternative pay adjustment in annual basic pay of members 
         of the uniformed services
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 605) that 
     would amend section 1009(e) of title 37, United States Code, 
     to remove the justification of serious economic conditions 
     affecting the general welfare from the waiver authority of 
     the President to make an alternative pay adjustment.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes.
     Sense of Congress regarding the widows' tax
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 607) that would 
     express the sense of Congress that: (1) Surviving spouses and 
     dependent children will not be subject to a full offset of 
     survivor benefit plan payments by dependency and indemnity 
     compensation; and (2) Congress must work to eliminate the 
     widows' tax entirely.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes.
       The conferees agree that Congress should work to eliminate 
     the full offset of survivor benefit plan payments by 
     dependency and indemnity compensation.
     Reevaluation of BAH for the military housing area including 
         Staten Island
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 608) that would 
     require the Secretary of Defense to reevaluate the rate of 
     basic allowance for housing for the military housing area 
     that includes Staten Island, New York.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes.
     Temporary adjustment in rate of basic allowance for housing 
         following identification of significant 
         underdetermination of civilian housing costs for housing 
         areas
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 608) that 
     would amend section 403(b) of title 37, United States Code, 
     to allow the Secretary of Defense to temporarily adjust 
     current rates of Basic Allowance for Housing (BAH) for a 
     military housing area if the Secretary determines that the 
     actual costs of adequate housing in that military housing 
     area differ from current BAH rates by more than 20 percent. 
     This authority provided by this provision would expire on 
     December 31, 2019.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes.
     Compensation and credit for retired pay purposes for 
         maternity leave taken by members of the reserve 
         components
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 609) that would 
     amend section 206(a) of title 37, United States Code, to 
     authorize compensation to members of the reserve component 
     during periods of maternity leave. The provision would also 
     require the period of maternity leave taken by a member of 
     the reserve component count towards the servicemember's 
     entitlement to retired pay.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes.
     Advisory boards regarding military commissaries and exchanges
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 624) that would 
     require the Secretary of Defense to direct each commanding 
     officer of a military installation with a military commissary 
     or exchange to establish an advisory board comprised of 
     representatives from military or veterans service 
     organizations to advise the commanding officer regarding the 
     interests of patrons and beneficiaries of commissaries and 
     exchanges.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes.
     Designation of new beneficiary under the Survivor Benefit 
         Plan
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 626) that would 
     amend section 1448(b)(1) of title 10, United States Code, to 
     allow the election of a new beneficiary under the Survivor 
     Benefit Plan by a terminally ill participant.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes.
     Report regarding management of military commissaries and 
         exchanges
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 627) that would 
     require the Secretary of Defense to submit a report regarding 
     management of military commissaries and exchanges to the 
     congressional defense committees within 180 days of the date 
     of the enactment of this Act.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes.
     Access for veterans to certain fitness centers
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 628) that would 
     amend Chapter 152 of title 10, United States Code, to 
     authorize the service secretaries to grant veterans access to 
     a fitness center within their jurisdiction under certain 
     conditions prescribed in the provision.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes.

                   Title VII--Health Care Provisions

           Subtitle A--Tricare and Other Health Care Benefits

     Cessation of requirement for mental health assessment of 
         members after redeployment from a contingency operation 
         upon discharge or release from the Armed Forces (sec. 
         701)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 704) that would 
     amend section 1074m(a)(1)(B) of title 10, United States Code, 
     to remove the termination date for the provision of mental 
     health assessments (MHA) for members of the Armed Forces 
     deployed in support of a contingency operation.
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 723) that 
     would amend section 1074m of title 10, United States Code, to 
     eliminate the requirement to provide an MHA to a 
     servicemember after redeployment if the individual has been 
     discharged from military service. The conferees note that, 
     under current law, there is no requirement to provide an MHA 
     to a servicemember 90 to 180 days after redeployment if the 
     individual has been discharged; however, the cessation of the 
     requirement to provide an MHA after a member has been 
     discharged does not currently apply to MHAs required at 180 
     days to 18 months after redeployment and 18 months to 30 
     months after redeployment.
       The House recedes.
     Pilot program on treatment of members of the Armed Forces for 
         post-traumatic stress disorder related to military sexual 
         trauma (sec. 702)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 702) that would 
     authorize the Secretary of Defense to conduct a pilot 
     program, not to extend beyond 3 years after the date of the 
     enactment of this Act, to assess the feasibility and 
     advisability of using intensive outpatient programs to treat 
     members of the Armed Forces suffering from post-traumatic 
     stress disorder resulting from military sexual trauma, 
     including treatment for substance use disorder, depression, 
     and other issues related to those conditions. Under this 
     provision, the pilot program would be carried out through 
     partnerships with public, private, and non-profit health care 
     organizations, universities, or institutions that: (1) 
     Provide health care to members of the Armed Forces; (2) 
     Provide evidence-based treatment for psychological and 
     neurological conditions common to members of the Armed 
     Forces; (3) Provide health care, support, and other benefits 
     to family members of members of the Armed Forces; and (4) 
     Provide health care under the TRICARE program. The provision 
     would establish pilot program activities and would require 
     the Secretary to install evaluation metrics before 
     commencement of the program. In addition, the provision would 
     require the Secretary to submit an initial report describing 
     the pilot program to the Committees on Armed Services of the 
     Senate and the House of Representatives not later than 180 
     days after the date of the enactment of this Act. The 
     Secretary would then submit a final report to the same 
     committees not later than 180 days after completion of the 
     pilot program.
       The Senate amendment contained a similar provision (sec. 
     705).
       The Senate recedes.

                 Subtitle B--Health Care Administration

     Improvement of administration of the Defense Health Agency 
         and military medical treatment facilities (sec. 711)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 711) that would 
     amend section 1073 of title 10, United States Code, by 
     requiring the Department of Defense to transition 
     administration of military medical treatment facilities

[[Page H7482]]

     (MTFs) from the service secretaries to the Director of the 
     Defense Health Agency (DHA) by September 30, 2020. This 
     provision would prohibit the Secretary of Defense from 
     closing or limiting services in any MTF until completion of a 
     transition certification process.
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 711) that 
     would amend section 1073c(a) of title 10, United States Code, 
     to improve and enhance the administration of the DHA and 
     MTFs. Under this provision, the DHA would have the following 
     additional authorities to: (1) Direct, control, and serve as 
     the primary rater of the performance of commanders or 
     directors of MTFs; (2) Direct and control any intermediary 
     organizations between the Defense Health Agency and MTFs; (3) 
     Determine the scope of medical care provided at each MTF to 
     meet the military personnel readiness requirements of the 
     senior military operational commander of the military 
     installation; (4) Determine total workforce requirements at 
     each MTF; (5) Direct joint manning at MTFs and intermediary 
     organizations; (6) Establish training and skills sustainment 
     venues for military medical personnel; (7) Address personnel 
     staffing shortages at MTFs; and (8) Approve service 
     nominations for commanders or directors of MTFs. The 
     provision would also amend section 1073c(d)(2) of title 10, 
     United States Code, to require the DHA Director to ensure 
     that the DHA meets the military personnel readiness 
     requirements of the senior military operational commanders of 
     military installations.
       The Senate recedes with an amendment that would require the 
     DHA Director to assume responsibility for the administration 
     of each MTF by September 30, 2021, and would prescribe 
     additional authorities for the DHA Director. The amendment 
     would limit closure or downsizing of MTFs until such time the 
     Secretary submits to the Committees on Armed Services of the 
     Senate and the House of Representatives a report, which 
     describes the methodology and criteria to close or downsize 
     an MTF. The amendment would prohibit such closure or 
     downsizing until 90 days after the date on which the 
     Secretary submits the report to the committees. In addition, 
     the amendment would prescribe the following subordinate 
     organizations within the DHA: (1) Defense Health Agency 
     Research and Development; and (2) Defense Health Agency 
     Public Health. The amendment would require the Secretary, not 
     later than 270 days after the date of the enactment of this 
     Act, to submit a report to the same committees on the 
     feasibility of establishing an additional subordinate DHA 
     organization, Defense Health Agency Education and Training, 
     led by the President of the Uniformed Services University of 
     the Health Sciences. Finally, the amendment would require the 
     Secretary, not later than 270 days after the date of the 
     enactment of this Act, to submit a report to the same 
     committees on the feasibility of establishing a Defense 
     Health Command as a superseding organization to the Defense 
     Health Agency.
     Organizational framework of the military healthcare system to 
         support medical requirements of the combatant commands 
         (sec. 712)
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 712) that 
     would require the Secretary of Defense, acting through the 
     Director of the Defense Health Agency (Director), to commence 
     implementation, not later than October 1, 2018, of an 
     organizational framework of the military health system that: 
     (1) Effectively implements chapter 55 of title 10, United 
     States Code; (2) Maximizes interoperability; and (3) Fully 
     integrates the medical capabilities of the Armed Forces to 
     enhance joint military medical operations in support of 
     combatant command requirements.
       The provision would authorize the Director to conduct a 
     phased implementation, in compliance with section 1073c of 
     title 10, United States Code, of a new organizational 
     framework with full implementation required not later than 
     October 1, 2020. The provision would establish no more than 
     three health readiness regions in the continental United 
     States, and each region would be led by a commander or 
     director appointed to a grade no higher than major general or 
     rear admiral. Each military department would nominate 
     qualified individuals to serve in those positions, and the 
     Director would select those individuals to serve as health 
     readiness regional commanders or directors under the 
     authority, direction, and control of such Director.
       Under this provision, the Director would establish a 
     regional hub at a major military medical center in each 
     region to provide complex, specialized medical services. Each 
     regional hub would be geographically located to maximize 
     medical support to combatant commands. The provision would 
     authorize the Director to establish or maintain additional 
     medical centers in locations with large beneficiary 
     populations or locations that serve as the primary readiness 
     platforms of the Armed Forces. In addition, this provision 
     would authorize the Director to establish up to two health 
     readiness regions outside the continental United States. The 
     provision would prescribe certain additional duties and 
     responsibilities of the Director related to readiness, 
     operational medicine support, and beneficiary healthcare 
     delivery.
       Moreover, the provision would require the Secretary of 
     Defense, through the service secretaries, to disestablish the 
     medical departments of the Services, and any subordinate 
     commands or organizations, not later than October 1, 2019, 
     and to establish operational medical force readiness 
     organizations in each service, led by the Services' Surgeons 
     General. These organizations would have no command authority. 
     Finally, the provision would prescribe the responsibilities 
     of the Services' operational medical force readiness 
     organizations.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes with an amendment that would require the 
     Secretary to establish not more than four defense health 
     regions, two regions in the continental United States and two 
     regions outside the continental United States. Additionally, 
     the amendment would prescribe certain additional duties for 
     the Surgeons General of the Armed Forces related to: (1) 
     Assignment of uniformed medical and dental personnel to 
     military medical treatment facilities; (2) Ensuring 
     operational medical force readiness of medical and dental 
     personnel; (3) Providing logistical support for operational 
     deployment of medical and dental personnel; (4) Providing 
     oversight of mobilization and demobilization of deployed 
     medical and dental personnel; (5) Conducting operational 
     medical and dental force development; (6) Ensuring that 
     operational medical force readiness organizations of the 
     Armed Forces support medical and dental readiness 
     responsibilities of the Director; (7) Developing operational 
     capabilities and policy required to support the warfighter; 
     and (8) Providing health professionals to serve in leadership 
     positions across the military health system. The amendment 
     would require the Secretary, not later than 270 days after 
     the date of the enactment of this Act, to submit a report to 
     the Committees on Armed Services of the Senate and the House 
     of Representatives, which provides: (1) A description of the 
     organizational structure of the office of each Surgeon 
     General of the Armed Forces and any subordinate organizations 
     that will support the functions and responsibilities of a 
     Surgeon General, while avoiding duplication of functions and 
     tasks of the Defense Health Agency; (2) Pre- and post-
     implementation manning documents for staffing the 
     organizational structure prescribed in this provision; and 
     (3) Recommendations for legislative or administrative action 
     in connection with the implementation of such organizational 
     structure.
     Administration of TRICARE dental plans through the Federal 
         Employees Dental and Vision Insurance Program (sec. 713)
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 702) that 
     would amend section 8951(8) of title 5, United States Code, 
     to authorize eligibility of Active-Duty family members, non-
     activated National Guard/Reserve members, family members of 
     National Guard/Reserve members, and certain survivors under 
     the Federal Employees Dental Insurance Program (FEDVIP) 
     beginning on or after January 1, 2022. This provision would 
     also amend subsection (b) of section 1076(a) of title 10, 
     United States Code, to require the Secretary of Defense to 
     administer TRICARE's dental insurance plans, through an 
     agreement with the Director of the Office of Personnel 
     Management (OPM), to allow eligible beneficiaries to enroll 
     in an insurance plan under chapter 89A of title 5, United 
     States Code, in accordance with terms (to the extent 
     practicable as defined by the Director through regulation) 
     prescribed by the Secretary, including terms consistent with 
     subsection (d) and, to the extent practicable in relation to 
     chapter 89A, other provisions of this section.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes with an amendment that would require the 
     Secretary of Defense, not later than January 1, 2020, to

       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes.
       The conferees remain concerned about the high cost of 
     military health care, understanding that much of the cost has 
     been driven by new benefits and benefit enhancements 
     authorized by Congress, as well as generally increasing costs 
     of medical care in the private sector in the United States. 
     The Congressional Budget Office estimates that the average 
     cost to the Department of Defense for a typical retiree 
     household's health care in 2021 will be $17,800.
       Therefore, the conferees direct the Secretary of Defense to 
     submit a report, not later than February 1, 2019, to the 
     Committees on Armed Services of the Senate and the House of 
     Representatives clearly describing the various TRICARE 
     programs currently available to beneficiaries, identifying 
     which beneficiaries are eligible to participate in each 
     program, and providing the average cost to the Department of 
     Defense and to beneficiaries in each program. Additionally, 
     the report should describe the policy options desirable to 
     maintain and improve access to quality health care while 
     controlling the cost of providing that health care. In 
     developing policy options, the Department should conduct a 
     beneficiary survey to ascertain whether beneficiaries would 
     be amenable to additional modest fee increases to maintain a 
     fiscally viable, comprehensive health benefit.
     Pilot program on cryopreservation and storage
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 703) that would 
     require the Secretary of Defense to establish a pilot program

     on Active-Duty with the opportunity to cryopreserve and store 
     gametes prior to a combat zone deployment.

     1074g(a)(6) of title 10, United States Code, to require 
     coverage of contraception services for covered beneficiaries 
     under the TRICARE program. The provision would prohibit cost-
     sharing for any method of contraception provided by a TRICARE 
     network provider and for any prescription contraceptive on 
     the uniform formulary provided by a network retail pharmacy 
     provider or the mail order pharmacy program. The effective 
     date of this provision would be January 1, 2020.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes.

     benefit counseling and treatment for substance use disorders 
     and chronic pain management services for members who separate 
     from the Armed Forces
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes.
       The conferees note that transitional health care services 
     provided in military medical treatment facilities routinely 
     include counseling and treatment, as may be required, for 
     substance use disorder and chronic pain management.
     Improvement of reimbursement by Department of Defense of

     reimburse an entity carrying out a State vaccination program 
     for making vaccinations available to TRICARE covered 
     beneficiaries. The provision would also stipulate that 
     subparagraph (B) of section 719 should not apply to amounts

     the assessments of such entities are below the costs of the 
     private sector in making vaccines available.

     a new part V at the end of subtitle A. This restructuring 
     would also enable additional growth and potential future

     related statutes in title 10 has become unwieldy and

     space for a new part V at the end of subtitle A. This 
     restructuring would also enable additional growth and 
     potential future reorganization of title 10 statutes in other 
     subject areas outside of the acquisition code.

       The Senate recedes.

     redesignate the chapter and section numbers for subtitle B of

         811)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 811) that would 
     amend or repeal a number of statutory requirements for

     methods along with associated training, tools, and 
     infrastructure.
       The conferees further note that recent years have seen the 
     most significant reform of the Department's acquisition 
     function since the Weapon Systems Acquisition Reform Act of 
     2009 (Public Law 111-23), to include expansion of acquisition 
     authorities, organizational realignments, delegation of 
     acquisition program execution to the Services, and rapid 
     acquisition and prototyping authorities and offices.
       The conferees believe this update to the Comptroller 
     General's assessments is critical to assisting the defense 
     committees with their oversight, given the role of software 
     and information technology in acquisition programs and 
     initiatives, and the scope of recent acquisition reforms 
     across the Department.

          Subtitle D--Provisions Relating to Commercial Items

     Revision of definition of commercial items for purposes of 
         Federal acquisition statutes (sec. 836)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 831) that would 
     clarify the definition of commercial items. Specifically, it 
     would clarify commercial items as commercial products or 
     commercial services.
       The Senate amendment contained a similar provision (sec. 
     851) that would direct the Assistant Secretary of Defense for 
     Acquisition to conduct a review of commercial item 
     procurement reform, including recommendations by the 
     independent panel created by Section 809 of the National 
     Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2016 (Public Law 
     114-92) and provisions from recent National Defense 
     Authorization Acts, and an analysis of the treatment of 
     commercial services contracts as compared to commercial 
     products.
       The Senate recedes with an amendment that would set the 
     effective date of the new definitions to January 1, 2020 with 
     a detailed implementation plan due to the congressional 
     defense committees on April 1, 2019.
     Limitation on applicability to Department of Defense 
         commercial contracts of certain provisions of law (sec. 
         837)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 833) that would 
     update section 2375, section 2533a, and section 2533b of 
     title 10, United States Code, with the clarified definition 
     of commercial products and commercial services. This section 
     would also establish a new section 2375a to limit 
     applicability of certain Executive Orders and regulations.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes with an amendment that would update 
     section 2533a, section 2533b, and part of section 2375 of 
     title 10, United States Code, with the clarified definition 
     of commercial products and commercial services.
     Modifications to procurement through commercial e-commerce 
         portals (sec. 838)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 834) that would 
     amend section 846 of the National Defense Authorization Act 
     for Fiscal Year 2018 (Public Law 115-91) to allow the 
     Administrator of the General Services Administration to 
     develop procedures for procurement through a commercial e-
     commerce portal. The procedures must satisfy the requirements 
     for competitive procedures outlined in title 41, United 
     States Code. Additionally, this section would require these 
     procedures to be submitted to the congressional defense 
     committees 30 days prior to implementation. This section 
     would also amend titles 10 and 41, United States Code, by 
     increasing the micro-purchase threshold for procurement 
     through a commercial e-commerce portal from $10,000 to 
     $25,000.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.

       The Senate recedes with an amendment that maintains the 
     micro-purchase threshold at $10,000.
     Review of Federal acquisition regulations on commercial 
         products, commercial services, and commercially available 
         off-the-shelf items (sec. 839)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 835) that would 
     require a review on Federal acquisition regulations on 
     commercial products, commercial services, and commercially 
     available off-the-shelf items.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes with an amendment to require a report on 
     the results of the review.

                  Subtitle E--Industrial Base Matters

     Report on limited sourcing of specific components for Naval 
         vessels (sec. 841)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 842) that would 
     require the Secretary of the Navy to submit a report to the 
     congressional defense committees by March 1, 2019, that 
     provides a market survey and cost assessment associated with 
     limiting competition to domestic sources for certain naval 
     components.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes with an amendment that would modify the 
     report to include national security considerations, 
     recommendations from the Secretary of the Navy, and sources 
     in the National Technology and Industrial Base. The report 
     would be limited to components listed in section 2534(a)(3) 
     of title 10, United States Code, and additional specified 
     components for auxiliary ships.
       The conferees encourage the manufacturers of waterjet 
     marine propulsion systems, azimuth thrusters, and bow 
     thrusters to consider utilizing the process contained in 
     section 844 this Act.
     Removal of national interest determination requirements for 
         certain entities (sec. 842)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 843) that would 
     streamline the National Industrial Security Program by 
     removing the regulatory requirements relating to National 
     Interest Determinations (NIDs). It would build on section 
     1712 of the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal 
     Year 2018 (Public Law 115-91), which required a review of 
     whether certain companies ``should be exempted from one or 
     more of the foreign ownership, control, or influence [FOCI] 
     requirements of the National Industrial Security Program.'' 
     This section would address NIDs as a particularly urgent 
     problem within that set of FOCI requirements authorized for 
     exemption. It would also authorize the Secretary of Defense 
     to accelerate implementation of this policy for contracting 
     entities that have already demonstrated a longstanding 
     commitment to industrial security and have previously been 
     approved for access to proscribed information.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes.
     Pilot program to test machine-vision technologies to

     feasibility and reliability of using machine-vision 
     technologies to determine the authenticity and security of 
     microelectronic parts in weapon systems.
       The Senate amendment contained a similar provision (sec. 
     5203) that would require the Under Secretary of Defense for 
     Research and Engineering to establish a similar pilot 
     program.
       The Senate recedes.
     Limitation on certain procurements application process (sec. 
         844)
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 861) that 
     would establish a process for consideration of products to be 
     included within the scope of the National Technology and

     Report on defense electronics industrial base (sec. 845)
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 862) that 
     would require a report by the Secretary of Defense, no later 
     than January 31, 2019, that would examine the health of the 
     defense electronics industrial base both domestically and 
     within the national technology and industrial base.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes.
     Support for defense manufacturing communities to support the 
         defense industrial base (sec. 846)
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 863) that 
     would provide the Secretary of Defense with authority to 
     establish a program to make long-term investments in critical 
     skills, infrastructure, research and development, and small 
     business support in order to strengthen the national security 
     innovation base, working in coordination with the defense 
     manufacturing institutes.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes with an amendment that harmonizes the 
     activities of the program with other similar programs to 
     avoid duplication.
     Limitation on procurement of certain items for T-AO-205 
         program (sec. 847)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 841) that would 
     amend section 2534 of title 10, United States Code, and would 
     require certain auxiliary ship components to be procured from 
     a manufacturer in the national technology and industrial 
     base.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes with an amendment that would limit 
     procurement in fiscal year 2019 of the components listed in 
     the House provision to manufacturers in the United States for 
     the T-AO-205 program.

                   Subtitle F--Small Business Matters

     Department of Defense small business strategy (sec. 851)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 851) that would 
     require the Department of Defense to develop and implement a 
     small business strategy to better leverage small businesses 
     as a means to enhance or support mission execution. This 
     section specifies that such a strategy should include plans 
     to integrate small businesses into a holistic view of 
     industry; to realign the Department's small business programs 
     with agency mission under a unified management structure; and 
     to clarify points of entry into the defense market.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes.
       The conferees note that a unified strategy would create 
     expanded small business engagement in the defense sector by 
     increasing entry points for nontraditional and innovative 
     companies. The conferees direct the Secretary of Defense to 
     coordinate the development of the strategy with the 
     Department of Defense Office of Small Business Programs.
     Prompt payments of small business contractors (sec. 852)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 852) would 
     direct Federal agencies to establish a prompt payment goal of 
     15 days for small business prime contractors. It would also 
     extend the accelerated payment objective to other-than small 
     prime contractors that subcontract with small businesses, and 
     encourage these prime contractors to also accelerate payments 
     to their small business subcontractors.
       The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes with an amendment that limits the 
     provision to the Department of Defense.
     Increased participation in the Small Business Administration 
         microloan program (sec. 853)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 853) that would 
     amend section 636(m) of title 15, United States Code, by 
     increasing the total limit on outstanding loans from $5.0 
     million to $6.0 million, and modifying the ratio from 25/75 
     to 50/50. It would also require the Administrator of the 
     Small Business Administration (SBA) to report on rates among 
     microlenders, and for the Comptroller General of the United 
     States to assess SBA oversight of the microloan program.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes with technical conforming amendments to 
     reflect the passage of certain sections in other Acts.
     Amendments to Small Business Innovation Research Program and 
         Small Business Technology Transfer Program (sec. 854)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 854) that would 
     authorize the use of Small Business Innovation Research 
     (SBIR) or Small Business Technology Transfer (STTR) program 
     funding for administrative costs and expand phase flexibility 
     during fiscal years 2018 through 2022.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes with an amendment that would expand 
     phase flexibility during fiscal years 2018 through 2022, 
     require the submission of outstanding reports and 
     evaluations, create a pilot program to accelerate Department 
     of Defense SBIR and STTR awards, direct the Comptroller 
     General of the United States to conduct a review of the 
     average and median amount of times that each component of the 
     Department of Defense with an SBIR or STTR program takes to 
     review and make a final decision on proposals submitted under 
     the program, and make modifications to technical and business 
     assistance under the Small Business Act.
     Construction contract administration (sec. 855)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 855) that would 
     amend section 644 of title 15, United States Code, to require 
     Federal agencies to provide prospective construction 
     contractors with information about an agency's policies and 
     performance on the administration of change orders.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes with a clarifying amendment related to 
     timeframes and circumstances for definitizing orders.
     Comptroller General study of impact of broadband speed and 
         price on small businesses (sec. 856)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 856) that would 
     direct the Associate Administrator for the Office of 
     Investment and Innovation of the Small Business 
     Administration to designate a senior employee as the 
     ``Broadband and Emerging Information

[[Page H7489]]

     Technology Coordinator.'' The Coordinator would be 
     responsible for connecting small businesses with financing 
     programs, and advising these businesses on how to acquire 
     broadband and new information technology. This section would 
     also direct a biennial report on activities beginning 2 years 
     after the first designation of a Coordinator to the Committee 
     on Small Business and Entrepreneurship of the Senate and the 
     Committee on Small Business of the House of Representatives.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes with an amendment that would instead 
     direct the Comptroller General of the United States to assess 
     the impact of broadband speed and price on small business 
     concerns.
     Consolidated budget display for the Department of Defense 
         Small Business Innovation Research Program and Small 
         Business Technology Transfer Program (sec. 857)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 858) that would 
     direct the Secretary of Defense to submit to Congress a 
     budget justification for all activities conducted under the 
     Small Business Innovation Research Program or Small Business 
     Technology Transfer Program during the previous fiscal year.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes with an amendment that would direct the 
     Secretary of Defense to report Small Business Innovation 
     Research Program and Small Business Technology Transfer 
     Program funding in a consolidated location in the annual 
     budget justification.
       The conferees note that the Small Business Innovation 
     Research (SBIR) and Small Business Technology Transfer (STTR) 
     programs have successfully developed and transitioned many 
     technologies into operational use that have supported US 
     military technological superiority, and represent proven and 
     successful outreach and engagement with innovative small 
     businesses. The conferees believe that this provision will 
     enable decision makers in both Congress and the Department to 
     better understand the valuable role that these programs play 
     in overall technological innovation efforts. The conferees 
     affirm the well-established SBIR and STTR funding allocation 
     mechanism already in the program's statutory authorization 
     which has preserved stability for the program and contributed 
     strongly to its track record of success. The conferees note 
     that nothing in this provision is intended to alter the 
     existing allocation mechanism.
     Funding for procurement technical assistance program (sec. 
         858)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 859) that would 
     amend section 2413(b) of title 10, United States Code, to 
     provide Procurement Technical Assistance Centers (PTACs) the 
     resources necessary to conduct greater outreach and provide 
     expanded support to small businesses. This section would 
     increase the funding caps for PTACs operating on statewide, 
     less than statewide, and eligible tribal locations. This 
     section would also adjust the percentage of Federal funding 
     for PTACs to 75 percent from 65 percent, and would adjust the 
     community contribution to 25 percent from 35 percent.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes.
     Authorization for payment of certain costs relating to 
         procurement technical assistance centers (sec. 859)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 862) that would 
     authorize Procurement Technical Assistance Centers (PTACs) to 
     form an association to pursue matters of common concern, and 
     direct the Secretary of Defense to recognize a PTAC 
     association with a membership of the majority of PTACs.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes with an amendment that would direct the 
     Director of the Defense Logistics Agency to brief the 
     congressional defense committees on the potential utility of 
     PTAC associations, and expands the use of authorized funds to 
     include coordination activities among PTACs.
     Commercialization Assistance Pilot Program (sec. 860)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 863) that would 
     amend the Small Business Act to create a Commercialization 
     Assistance Pilot program.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes with an amendment that would amend the 
     Small Business Act to authorize commercialization assistance 
     pilot programs, and direct the Comptroller General of the 
     United States to conduct an assessment of the pilot, no later 
     than 6 years after the date of the enactment.
     Puerto Rico businesses (sec. 861)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 864) that would 
     modify the Small Business Act to include a definition for 
     Puerto Rico businesses and identify potential incentives for 
     businesses in a mentor-protege relationship with Puerto Rico 
     businesses.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes with a clarifying amendment.
     Opportunities for employee-owned business concerns through 
         Small Business Administration loan programs (sec. 862)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 866) that would 
     amend the Small Business Act to expand some loans for small 
     business concerns and direct the Administrator of the United 
     States Small Business Administration (SBA) to undertake 
     outreach and assistance activities, and a report on these 
     activities.
       The Senate amendment contained a similar provision (sec. 
     6006) that would strengthen SBA loan programs to support 
     employee-owned small businesses.
       The Senate recedes with clarifying and technical 
     amendments.

 Subtitle G--Provisions Related to Software and Technical Data Matters

     Validation of proprietary and technical data (sec. 865)
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 881) that 
     would amend section 2321(f) of title 10, United States Code, 
     to clarify the application of rights in technical data 
     relating to major weapons systems. This provision would also 
     amend section 2320 of title 10, United States Code, to 
     clarify the application of licensing of appropriate 
     intellectual property to support major weapons systems with 
     regard to preferences for specially negotiated licenses.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes with an amendment that would amend only 
     section 2321(f) of title 10, United States Code. The 
     conferees note that Specially Negotiated Licenses are a new 
     concept in government technical data rights and are being 
     interpreted in many different ways by industry and government 
     alike. Therefore, the conferees direct the Under Secretary of 
     Defense for Acquisition and Sustainment, in conjunction with 
     the Service Acquisition Executives, to develop guidelines, 
     training, and policy for the usage and application of 
     specially negotiated licenses to clarify the terms under 
     which such licenses should be used when considering a product 
     support strategy of a major weapon system or subsystem of a 
     major weapon system. The Under Secretary of Defense for 
     Acquisition and Sustainment is directed to brief the 
     resulting guidelines and other actions to the congressional 
     defense committees no later than 180 days after the date of 
     enactment of this Act.
     Continuation of technical data rights during challenges (sec. 
         866)
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 812) that 
     would amend section 2321(i) of title 10, United States Code, 
     to clarify that the government may continue to exercise 
     rights in technical data and noncommercial computer software 
     during the course of a challenge with an incumbent contractor 
     under section 2321(d) of title 10, United States Code, or 
     under procedures established by the Department of Defense, to 
     meet Department of Defense mission requirements and readiness 
     needs during the course of the challenge.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes with an amendment that would clarify the 
     circumstances in which the Secretary of Defense or a service 
     secretary, for programs for which milestone decision 
     authority has been delegated, may authorize use of technical 
     data in dispute by issuing notice and a written determination 
     that compelling mission readiness requirements will not 
     permit awaiting the final decision.
     Requirement for negotiation of technical data price before 
         sustainment of major weapon systems (sec. 867)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 827) that would 
     provide the Department of Defense with additional flexibility 
     on negotiations for appropriate technical data.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes with an amendment that would clarify 
     that this provision also applies to the sustainment of major 
     weapon systems.
     Implementation of recommendations of the final report of the 
         Defense Science Board Task Force on the Design and 
         Acquisition of Software for Defense Systems (sec. 868)
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 882) that 
     would direct the Secretary of Defense to implement certain 
     recommendations of the Defense Science Board Task Force in 
     their report on the Design and Acquisition of Software for 
     Defense Systems.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes.
       The conferees agree with the report's emphasis on shifting 
     the Department of Defense's treatment of software as solely a 
     development activity to understanding that it is enduring and 
     that, therefore, traditional models of hardware sustainment 
     are not suited to the treatment of software in the 
     acquisition process. As the Department considers how each 
     recommendation would be implemented, the conferees also 
     encourage the Department to continue to engage the private 
     sector for their best practices and views regarding 
     sustainable software acquisition approaches.
     Implementation of pilot program to use agile or iterative 
         development methods required under section 873 of the 
         National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2018 
         (sec. 869)
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 883) that 
     would provide additional direction to the Secretary of 
     Defense in implementing the pilot program established

[[Page H7490]]

     under section 873 of the National Defense Authorization Act 
     for Fiscal Year 2018 (Public Law 115--91).
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes with an amendment to the list of 
     participating systems; an amendment to make criteria for 
     selecting program participation more permissive; an amendment 
     that directs the Under Secretary of Defense for Acquisition 
     and Sustainment to establish a Community of Practice on agile 
     or iterative methods and identifies programs that should 
     contribute; and an amendment that directs the Secretary to 
     report certain information on the progress of programs 
     participating in the pilot.
       The conferees expect the Department to attend to compliance 
     with Section 873 of the National Defense Authorization Act 
     for Fiscal Year 2018 (Public Law 115--91). The conferees note 
     that the adoption of agile or iterative methods remains a 
     challenge for the Department of Defense, despite the fact 
     that delivery of increments of useful capability no less 
     frequently than every six months is not only a best practice 
     for software-intensive systems but is also a government-wide 
     requirement for such systems. Further, as the Department 
     implements such methods, it is important to ensure good 
     principles of management and oversight are incorporated. In 
     particular, given how frequently programs should be 
     delivering features, having insight to costs and capability 
     delivered is critical to understanding risk and overall

       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes with an amendment that would clarify the 
     categories and threshold applicable in the provision. The 
     conferees note that, in order to balance effective oversight 
     with reasonable expenditure of resources, the Government 
     Accountability Office is expected to develop a methodological 
     approach that will provide sufficient insight into the extent 
     to which lowest price technically acceptable source selection 
     criteria are used by executive agencies, without requiring a 
     review of each individual instance in which such criteria are 
     used.
     Permanent Supply Chain Risk Management Authority (sec. 881)
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 801) that 
     would permanently extend the authority provided in section

       The House recedes with an amendment that would direct the 
     Assistant Secretary of Defense for Acquisition and 
     Sustainment to conduct a review of market research guidance 
     and practices.

[[Page H7491]]

       The conferees note that a growing share of the Department's 
     spending is on information technology products and services 
     and believes robust market research is critical to 
     acquisition planning. The conferees believe that sufficient 
     attention is not being given to market research and are 
     concerned that the Department's sources of data for market 
     research are limited and lack diversity.
       The conferees therefore encourage the Department's 
     contracting officers to use commercially available detailed 
     third-party market research, which should include any 
     disclosures of a third-party's interests and which should be 
     considered by contracting officers in the context of all 
     available data sources, to ensure that they have the best and 
     most complete information available in developing and 
     executing their acquisition strategies.
     Establishment of integrated review team on defense 
         acquisition industry-government exchange (sec. 883)

     convene an integrated review team with members of the Defense 
     Innovation Board and Defense Science Board to undertake a 
     study on the exchange of defense industry personnel on term 
     assignments within the Department. The study shall review: 
     (1) Legal, ethical, and financial disclosure requirements for 
     industry-government exchanges; (2) Existing or previous 
     industry-government exchange programs; and (3) How the 
     military departments address legal, ethical, and financial 
     requirements for reserve component servicemembers who also 
     maintain civilian employment in the defense industry. The 
     team shall also produce recommendations to reduce barriers to 
     industry-government exchange while ensuring financial and 
     ethical integrity to protect the best interests of the 
     Department.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes.
     Exchange program for acquisition workforce employees (sec. 
         884)
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 843) that 
     would require the Secretary of Defense to establish an 
     exchange program that would temporarily assign civilian 
     personnel working in the defense acquisition workforce, as 
     defined by chapter 87 of title 10, United States Code, to a 
     rotational program that would broaden the skills and 
     expertise of participants and improve communication within 
     and integration of the acquisition community.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes.
     Process to limit foreign access to technology (sec. 885)
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 820) that 
     would authorize the Under Secretary of Defense for Research 
     and Engineering to include in the terms of any contract 
     provisions that would limit access by select persons or 
     organizations to sensitive technology, and authorize the 
     potential forfeit of intellectual property rights if these 
     terms were violated.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes with an amendment that would remove the 
     authority to include these limitations in the terms of any 
     contract and instead directs the Secretary of Defense to 
     develop a process and procedures for limiting access to 
     technology through contracts, grants, cooperative agreements, 
     or other transactions, when such limitation is in the 
     interest of national security.
     Procurement of telecommunications supplies for experimental 
         purposes (sec. 886)
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 894) that 
     would ensure the Director, Operational Test and Evaluation, 
     and other developmental testing organizations be given access 
     to all data associated with certain modeling and simulation 
     activities supporting the acquisition of military 
     capabilities.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes.
     Access by developmental and operational testing activities to 
         data regarding modeling and simulation activity (sec. 
         887)
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 895) that 
     would ensure the Director, Operational Test and Evaluation, 
     and other developmental testing organizations be given access 
     to all data associated with modeling and simulation 
     activities supporting the acquisition of military 
     capabilities.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes.
       The conferees note that modeling and simulation tools and 
     activities are critical to reducing risk in technology 
     development initiatives and acquisition programs.
       The conferees note the use of modeling and simulation to 
     reduce risk in operational or live fire test and evaluation 
     is especially relevant when operational conditions are 
     difficult or expensive to replicate in testing certain 
     military capabilities, such as: performance of systems in 
     space, intercept capability of ballistic missile defense 
     systems, and a ship's ability to withstand shocks.
       The conferees also note that given the increasing use of 
     software-driven capabilities, modeling and simulation is also 
     beneficial during developmental testing and evaluation, 
     including modeling and simulating complex cyber threats to 
     facilitate accurate assessments of security features.
       The conferees understand that Department of Defense 
     policies require models to be verified, validated, and 
     accredited in order to be deemed effective at reducing risk 
     and cost, as well as to improve understanding and 
     predictability of system performance.
       The conferees are concerned that despite these Department 
     policies, programs and initiatives are using models in lieu 
     of real world testing, even though they have not been 
     verified, validated, and accredited.
       Accordingly, this provision would direct developmental and 
     operational test organizations be given access to all data 
     associated with verification, validation, and accreditation 
     of modeling and simulation activities to ensure development, 
     production, and fielding decisions that depend on outcomes 
     from such activities are fully informed.
        The conferees also urge the Department to continue efforts 
     to improve the quality and fidelity of computer models for 
     use in test and evaluation activities.
     Instruction on pilot program regarding employment of persons 
         with disabilities (sec. 888)
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 5801) that 
     would direct the Secretary of Defense to update the Defense 
     Federal Acquisition Regulatory Supplement to include an 
     instruction on the pilot program regarding employment of 
     persons with disabilities authorized under section 853 of the 
     National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2004.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes.
     Prohibition on certain telecommunications and video 
         surveillance services or equipment (sec. 889)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 880) that would 
     provide that, not later than January 1, 2021, no government 
     agency may procure or obtain, nor extend or renew a contract 
     to procure or obtain, nor enter into a contract with an 
     entity that uses covered telecommunications equipment or 
     services with any covered entity. The covered equipment would 
     encompass telecommunications and video surveillance products 
     and services provided by Hauwei Technologies Company, ZTE 
     Corporation, Hytera Communications Corporation, Hikvision 
     Digital Technology Company, or Hahua Technology Company, or 
     any company that the head of a relevant Federal agency 
     reasonably believes is controlled by the government of the 
     Peoples Republic of China.
       The Senate amendment contained a similar provision (sec. 
     6702) that would prohibit by the heads of Federal agencies 
     procurement of telecommunications equipment or services from 
     Huawei Technologies Company or ZTE Corporation, any 
     subsidiary or affiliate of such entities, or any entity 
     controlled by the government of the People's Republic of 
     China. The provision would also prohibit entry into a 
     contract with any entity that uses equipment, as a critical 
     component of any system, from Huawei Technologies Company, 
     the ZTE Corporation, any subsidiary or affiliate of such 
     entities, or any entity controlled by the government of the 
     People's Republic of China. The provision would prohibit the 
     modification of any penalty implemented by the United States 
     Government with respect to a Chinese telecommunications 
     company upon a determination that the company has violated an 
     export control or sanctions law until the President certifies 
     to the appropriate congressional committees that the company 
     is compliant and cooperative with US laws and related 
     investigations. The provision would also reinstate penalties 
     imposed on ZTE on April 15, 2018 by the Acting Assistant 
     Secretary of the Commerce for Export Enforcement and would 
     limit the future modification of such penalties.
       The House recedes with an amendment that would not prohibit 
     modification of penalties nor re-impose penalties on the ZTE 
     Corporation, clarify the applicable timelines and waivers, 
     and require the heads of executive agencies administering 
     loan, grant, or subsidy programs to prioritize available 
     funding and technical support to assist affected businesses, 
     institutions and organizations as is reasonably necessary for 
     those affected entities to transition from covered 
     communications equipment and services, to procure replacement 
     equipment and services, and to ensure that communications 
     services to users and customers is sustained. The conferees 
     stress the importance of assisting rural communications 
     service providers, anchor institutions, and public safety 
     organizations in replacing covered equipment and associated 
     support services contracts as soon as practicable.
     Pilot program to accelerate contracting and pricing processes 
         (sec. 890)
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 833) that 
     would establish a pilot program for the Secretary of Defense 
     to reform and accelerate the contracting and pricing 
     processes associated with major weapons systems programs 
     through basing price reasonableness determinations on actual 
     cost and pricing data for purchases of the same or similar 
     products for the Department of Defense and reducing the cost 
     and pricing data to be submitted in accordance with section 
     2306a of title 10, United States Code. This authority would 
     expire on January 2, 2021.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes with an amendment that would limit the 
     pilot to ten contracts

[[Page H7492]]

     not classified as major defense acquisition programs and 
     require a report to the congressional defense committee on 
     the results of the pilot no later than January 30, 2021.

     Comptroller General of the United States report on progress 
         payment financing of Department of Defense contracts
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 819) that 
     would require the Comptroller General of the United States to 
     submit a report, no later than 180 days after the date of the 
     enactment of this Act, to the congressional defense 
     committees on the results of an analysis of the effects of 
     current financing levels of defense contracts on defense 
     contractors and Defense budgets.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes.
       The conferees direct the Comptroller General of the United 
     States to submit to the congressional defense committees, no 
     later than 180 days after the date of enactment of this Act, 
     a report on the results of an analysis of the effects of 
     current financing levels of Department of Defense contracts 
     on contractors of the Department and the budgets of the 
     Department to include an analysis and assessment of the 
     impact to government and business on the relationship between 
     financing amounts and contractor profit and the willingness 
     of contractors to pursue contracts with the Department. The 
     assessment should take into consideration past changes to 
     progress payment rates and conditions as well as progress 
     payment rates and limitations on progressing for 
     undefinitized contract actions.
     Contract goal for the AbilityOne program
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 821) that would 
     amend section 2323a of title 10, United States Code, to 
     create a contract goal for the AbilityOne program of 1.5 
     percent. This section would also require the Secretary of 
     Defense to submit an annual report to the U.S. AbilityOne 
     Commission on progress made toward achieving said contract 
     goal.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes.
       The conferees note that the AbilityOne program must have 
     policies and procedures in place to ensure that funding is 
     used in a way that maximizes the benefits to the people it is 
     intended to serve and that taxpayer funds are not wasted. 
     Recognizing this, in 2015 the Congress directed the 
     establishment of an AbilityOne Inspector General, and in 2016 
     Congress directed the establishment of a Panel on Department 
     of Defense, and AbilityOne Contracting, Oversight, 
     Accountability, and Integrity. The conferees note that both 
     the Inspector General and the Panel are generating findings 
     and recommendations for needed reforms and expect the 
     AbilityOne Commission to take appropriate steps in the future 
     to increase transparency and effectiveness of the program.
     Sense of Congress on awarding of contracts to responsible 
         companies that primarily employ American workers and do 
         not actively transfer American jobs to potential 
         adversaries
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 822) that 
     would express the sense of Congress that the Department of 
     Defense should award contracts to responsible companies that 
     primarily employ United States workers or are partners in the 
     national technology and industrial base and do not actively 
     transfer United States jobs to potential adversaries.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes.
       The conferees note that the Department of Defense should 
     award contracts to responsible companies that primarily 
     employ United States workers or are partners in the national 
     technology and industrial base and do not actively transfer 
     United States jobs to potential adversaries.
     Preference for offerors employing veterans
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 823) that would 
     amend chapter 137 of title 10, United States Code, by adding 
     a new section that would authorize the head of an agency, in 
     awarding a contract for the procurement of goods and services 
     for the Department of Defense, to establish a preference for 
     offerors that employ veterans on a full-time basis, with 
     criteria for use of such preference determined by the 
     Secretary of Defense.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes.
     Competition requirements for purchases from Federal Prison 
         Industries
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 826) that would 
     amend section 2410n of title 10, United States Code. This

     to American-owned and -operated companies.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes.
     Sense of Congress on unmanned ground vehicle technology
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 846) that would 
     provide a sense of Congress on unmanned ground vehicle 
     technology.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes.
       The conferees note that the design, manufacturing, and 
     repair of the technology in unmanned ground vehicles is 
     critical to national security.
     Amendments to the Small Business Investment Act of 1958
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 857) that would 
     amend the Small Business Investment Act of 1958 (15 U.S.C. 
     682(b)) by increasing the Individual Leverage Limit from 
     $150.0 million to $175.0 million and by increasing the total 
     amount of capital and surplus that a financial institution 
     and Federal savings association can invest in a small 
     business investment company from 5 percent to 15 percent.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes.
     Exemption of certain contracts from the periodic inflation 
         adjustments to the acquisition-related dollar threshold
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 860) that would 
     amend subparagraph (B) of section 1908(b)(2) of title 41, 
     United States Code, to exempt certain contracts from the 
     periodic inflation adjustments to the acquisition-related 
     dollar threshold.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes.
     SCORE
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 861) that would 
     amend the Small Business Act to reauthorize the SCORE 
     program.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes.
     United States Virgin Islands Small Business Contracting 
         Assistance
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 865) that would 
     modify the Small Business Act with regard to the United 
     States Virgin Islands.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes.
     Veteran entrepreneurship training
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 867) that would 
     amend section 32 of the Small Business Act (15 U.S.C. 657b) 
     to require the Administrator of the Small Business 
     Administration to carry out a program to provide 
     entrepreneurship training to certain servicemembers, 
     veterans, and their spouses or dependents.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes.
     Improvement of small business development centers program
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 868) that would 
     modify the small business development centers program.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes.
     Additional requirements for negotiations for noncommercial 
         computer software
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 871) that would 
     amend section 2322a of title 10, United States Code, and 
     codify existing Defense Federal Acquisition Regulations on 
     noncommercial software rights as well as mandate, to the 
     maximum extent practicable, that specially negotiated 
     licenses be

[[Page H7493]]

     used for weapon systems noncommercial software.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes.
     Removal of requirement for risk and sensitivity analysis of 
         baseline estimates in Selected Acquisition Reports
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 872) that would 
     amend section 2432(c)(1)(B) of title 10, United States Code, 
     by removing the requirement for risk and sensitivity analysis 
     to be included with baseline estimates in selected 
     acquisition reports.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes.
       The conferees note that quantitative and qualitative risk 
     and sensitivity analyses help decision-makers to identify 
     cost drivers and understand the effects of changing variables 
     on cost estimates. The National Defense Authorization Act for 
     Fiscal Year 2014 (Public Law 113-66) required that a 
     program's baseline cost estimate, along with the associated 
     risk curve and sensitivity of that estimate, be provided in 
     the quarterly selected acquisition reports. In addition, it 
     required that the reports include the current point estimate 
     bounded by the low-end and high-end estimates and the 
     associated sensitivity of those estimates, and identification 
     of the primary risk parameters associated with the estimate. 
     The conferees note that these requirements are intended to 
     promote use of relatively commonplace data and statistical 
     analysis techniques that are well understood by most 
     practitioners. However, the conferees understand that this 
     language has been interpreted by Department of Defense 
     officials as requiring analysis of the sensitivity of the 
     information in a security context for selected acquisition 
     reports, resulting in unwarranted barriers to dissemination. 
     The conferees direct the Department of Defense to comply with 
     all legal requirements relating to contents of selected 
     acquisition reports, noting the clarification of intent 
     above. Further, the conferees direct the Department to avoid 
     labeling selected acquisition reports as ``For Official Use 
     Only'' unless the specific justification for such restrictive 
     markings is provided to the Congress for each individual 
     report.
     Transfer or possession of defense items for national defense 
         purposes
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 874) that would 
     amend sections 922 and 925 of title 18, United States Code, 
     to allow joint production, integration, and calibration of 
     military-grade hardware by licensed contractors, transfers of 
     defense items to government customers, and export of 
     authorized weapons to foreign governments.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes.
     Expedited hiring authority for shortage category positions in 
         the acquisition workforce
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 875) that would 
     expand and extend direct-hire authority for acquisition 
     professionals.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes.
     Sense of Congress regarding steel produced in the United 
         States
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 887) that would 
     provide a sense of Congress regarding steel produced in the 
     United States.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes.
       The conferees note that a strong domestic iron ore and 
     steel industry is vital to the national security of the 
     United States.
     Permanent SBIR and STTR authority for the Department of 
         Defense
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 893) that 
     would amend section 638 of title 15, United States Code, to 
     provide a permanent authority for the Small Business 
     Innovation Research program (SBIR) and the Small Business 
     Technology Transfer program (STTR) in the Department of 
     Defense.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes.

      Title IX--Department of Defense Organization and Management

   Subtitle A--Office of the Secretary of Defense and Related Matters

     Report on allocation of former responsibilities of the Under 
         Secretary of Defense for Acquisition, Technology, and 
         Logistics (sec. 901)
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 904) that 
     would direct the Secretary of Defense to report on decisions 
     taken as part of the reorganization of the Office of the 
     Under Secretary of Defense for Acquisition, Technology, and 
     Logistics to allocate the responsibilities that are 
     referenced in United States Code.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes.
     Modification of responsibilities of the Under Secretary of 
         Defense for Policy (sec. 902)
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 903) that 
     would modify the responsibilities of the Under Secretary of 
     Defense for Policy to include greater oversight of defense 
     strategy and planning guidance in alignment with the National 
     Defense Strategy (NDS). These modifications would encompass 
     the preparation and development of policy guidance for 
     campaign and contingency plans by the combatant commands, as 
     well as the oversight and integration of strategic documents 
     such as the National Security Strategy (NSS) and the Defense 
     Planning Guidance (DPG).
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes with an amendment that would further 
     refine the responsibilities of the Under Secretary of Defense 
     for Policy including a clarification of its role in providing 
     joint force requirements guidance through the Defense 
     Planning Guidance. Furthermore, the Under Secretary, in 
     coordination with the Director of Cost Assessment and Program 
     Evaluation and the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, 
     would develop planning scenarios for the future joint 
     environments to use in assessments and the development of 
     specific objectives for joint force capabilities (both 
     capacity and readiness).
       The conferees recognize the importance of the Under 
     Secretary of Defense in developing strategy and providing 
     associated policy guidance for force development, planning, 
     and posture. However, deteriorating policy functions in areas 
     such as joint force assessments have led to shortcomings in 
     resource allocation and prioritization efforts. In turn, this 
     can exacerbate capability gaps and lead to the erosion of 
     U.S. military superiority. In light of these trends, the 
     conferees urge the Department to clearly define the Under 
     Secretary of Defense primary functions as well as integrate 
     its critical responsibilities with the priorities outlined in 
     the 2018 National Defense Strategy.
     Clarification of responsibilities and duties of the Chief 
         Information Officer of the Department of Defense (sec. 
         903)
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 906) that 
     would clarify the responsibilities and duties of the Chief 
     Information Officer (CIO) of the Department of Defense by 
     specifically delineating its authorities from those assigned 
     to the Chief Management Officer (CMO) in the National Defense 
     Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2018 (Public Law 115-91).
       Section 910 of the National Defense Authorization Act for 
     Fiscal Year 2018 (Public Law 115-91) designated the CMO as 
     the CIO of the Department for the purposes of Defense 
     business systems (10 U.S.C. 2222). The provision assigned the 
     CMO the responsibility of administering the duties and 
     responsibilities specified in sections 11315 and 11319 of 
     title 40, section 3506(a)(2) of title 44, and section 2223(a) 
     of title 10 for business systems and management. The 
     provision also assigned the CMO with any responsibilities, 
     duties, and powers relating to business systems or management 
     that are exercisable by a chief information officer for the 
     Department, other than those responsibilities, duties, and 
     powers of a chief information officer that are vested in the 
     Chief Information Officer of the Department of Defense by 
     section 142 of title 10, United States Code.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes.
     Technical corrections to Department of Defense Test Resource 
         Management Center authority (sec. 904)
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 909) that 
     would align the reporting relationship of the Test Resource 
     Management Center to the Under Secretary of Defense for 
     Research and Engineering, as a conforming change reflecting 
     the disestablishment of the Office of the Under Secretary of 
     Defense for Acquisition, Technology, and Logistics.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes.
     Specification of certain duties of the Defense Technical 
         Information Center (sec. 905)
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 907) that 
     would expand the duties of the Defense Technical Information 
     Center to include execution of the Global Research Watch 
     program and the development and maintenance of datasets and 
     data repositories on research and engineering activities.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes.

Subtitle B--Organization and Management of Other Department of Defense 
                          Offices and Elements

     Comprehensive review of operational and administrative 
         chains-of-command and functions of the Department of the 
         Navy (sec. 911)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 905) that would 
     amend section 5013 of title 10, United States Code, to 
     require the Secretary of the Navy to designate a single 
     commander within the Department of the Navy responsible for 
     ensuring Navy forces are available for tasking and 
     deployment, including those Navy forces that may be operating 
     from a forward deployed location. This provision would also 
     require the Secretary to designate a single commander for all 
     Navy shipyards, including any located overseas.
       The Senate amendment contained a similar provision (sec. 
     1043) that would require the Secretary of the Navy to conduct 
     a comprehensive review of the operational and administrative 
     chains-of-command and functions in the Department of the 
     Navy.
       The House recedes.
       The conferees direct the Secretary of the Navy to review 
     the chains-of-command for Navy shipyards and determine if a 
     single commander should be responsible for all such 
     shipyards.

[[Page H7494]]

  

     Modification of certain responsibilities of the Chairman of 
         the Joint Chiefs of Staff relating to joint force concept 
         development (sec. 912)
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 921) that 
     would clarify the strategic planning role of the Chairman of 
     the Joint Chiefs of Staff by including both a short-term and 
     long-term focus on force concept development to meet national 
     security shortfalls. This provision would seek to address 
     joint force capability gaps in addition to present 
     procurement requirements.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes with an amendment that would eliminate 
     the specific direction regarding exercising and, if 
     appropriate, fielding joint concept assessments in support of 
     the joint force.
       The conferees note that not all capability gaps can, or 
     should, be addressed by procurement or addition of end-
     strength. Expanding joint force concept development efforts 
     should enable the Department of Defense to better meet the 
     diverse set of challenges facing the military in a more 
     efficient manner.
     Clarification of certain risk assessment requirements of the 
         Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff in connection with 
         the National Military Strategy (sec. 913)
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 5901) that 
     would amend section 153(b) of title 10, United States Code, 
     to include new language concerning military strategic risks 
     to the United States interests and military risks in 
     executing the National Military Strategy.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes.
     Assistant Secretary of Defense for Special Operations and Low 
         Intensity Conflict review of United States Special 
         Operations Command (sec. 914)
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 922) that 
     would require the Assistant Secretary of Defense for Special 
     Operations and Low-Intensity Conflict, in coordination with 
     the Commander, U.S. Special Operations Command (SOCOM), to 
     conduct a comprehensive review of SOCOM for the purpose of 
     ensuring that the institutional and operational capabilities 
     of special operations forces are appropriate to counter 
     future threats across the spectrum of conflict.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes.
     Expansion of principal duties of Assistant Secretary of the 
         Navy for Research, Development, and Acquisition (sec. 
         915)
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 924) that 
     would expand the principal duties of the Assistant Secretary 
     of the Navy for Research, Development, and Acquisition to 
     include sustainment.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes.
     Qualifications for appointment as Deputy Chief Management 
         Officer of a military department (sec. 916)
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 923) that 
     would create qualification criteria for military department 
     Deputy Chief Management Officers to include either 
     significant experience in business operations and management 
     in the public sector or significant experience managing an 
     enterprise in the private sector.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes.
       The conferees note that these desired qualifications are 
     intended to be a guide for the military departments to 
     recruit the best possible private and public sector 
     managerial talent with requisite expertise.
     Deadline for completion of full implementation of 
         requirements in connection with organization of the 
         Department of Defense for management of special 
         operations forces and special operations (sec. 917)
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 926) that 
     would require full implementation of the reforms contained in 
     section 922 of the National Defense Authorization Act for 
     Fiscal Year 2017 (Public Law 114-328) not later than 90 days 
     after enactment of this Act.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes.
       The conferees note that section 922 of Public Law 114-328 
     included a number of reforms designed to empower the 
     Assistant Secretary of Defense for Special Operations and 
     Low-Intensity Conflict (ASD SOLIC) to act as the ``service 
     secretary-like'' civilian responsible for exercising 
     ``authority, direction and control of all special operations-
     peculiar administrative matters relating to the organization, 
     training, and equipping of special operations forces (SOF).'' 
     However, the conferees are concerned that, despite passage of 
     Public Law 114-328 more than 20 months ago, the 
     implementation of the reforms contained in section 922 remain 
     incomplete.
       The conferees further note that section 922 established a 
     new administrative chain of command to facilitate the 
     exercise of these responsibilities that runs from the 
     Commander of U.S. Special Operations Command (SOCOM) through 
     the ASD SOLIC to the Secretary of Defense, thereby mirroring 
     the relationship between the Secretary of Defense and the 
     service secretaries. This reform was, in part, intended to 
     address the fact that the ASD SOLIC's organizational location 
     within the office of the Under Secretary of Defense for 
     Policy (USD(P)) has resulted in the ASD SOLIC dedicating the 
     preponderance of their time and resources to policy and 
     operational issues, at the expense of their ``service 
     secretary-like'' responsibilities. The conferees understand 
     the Department continues to work towards full implementation 
     of this administrative chain of command, but reiterate their 
     intent that the ASD SOLIC is empowered to act independent of 
     the USD(P) in fulfillment of their ``service secretary-like'' 
     responsibilities related to the organization, training, and 
     equipping of special operations forces. This administrative 
     chain of command is not intended to impact the relationship 
     between the ASD SOLIC and USD(P) on policy matters relating 
     to the employment of special operations forces and related 
     authorities.
       The conferees also recognize that current civilian manpower 
     within the ASD SOLIC is not sufficient to fulfill the 
     ``service secretary-like'' responsibilities for the advocacy 
     and oversight of SOF mandated by Congress. The conferees note 
     that, elsewhere in this Act, there is a provision requiring 
     that, of the funds authorized in Operation & Maintenance, 
     Defense-wide for U.S. Special Operations Command civilian 
     personnel, not less than $4 million shall be used to fund 
     additional civilian personnel in or directly supporting the 
     ASD SOLIC Secretariat for Special Operations. This provision 
     would also exempt these additional personnel from the overall 
     personnel caps on the Office of the Secretary of Defense. The 
     conferees believe this is an appropriate model for adequately 
     staffing the ASD SOLIC Secretariat for Special Operations. 
     The conferees encourage the Department to request adequate 
     funding in future years and to propose legislative or other 
     recommendations that would facilitate adequate staffing of 
     the ASD SOLIC Secretariat for Special Operations.
     Cross-functional teams in the Department of Defense (sec. 
         918)
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 925) that 
     would require the Secretary of Defense to establish three 
     cross-functional teams (CFTs) as directed in section 911 of 
     the National Defense Authorization Act of Fiscal Year 2017 
     (Public Law 114-328) and would require the Deputy Secretary 
     of Defense to establish or designate an office as the Office 
     of Primary Responsibility for implementing section 911.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes with an amendment that limits the 
     statutory establishment of CFTs to one: the CFT for 
     electronic warfare, which the Department itself has not yet 
     created.
       In addition to the team established within this provision, 
     the conferees encourage the Secretary of Defense to designate 
     the ongoing teams on personnel security and close combat 
     lethality as CFTs under section 911 of the National Defense 
     Authorization Act of Fiscal Year 2017 (Public Law 114-328). 
     The conferees stress that this designation should only be 
     made in the event it does not require any changes in either 
     of the ongoing efforts' organization, management, 
     authorities, mission, or activities. In that regard, the 
     conferees note that these teams already have the 
     characteristics and meet the requirements of CFTs established 
     in law by section 911. The conferees remain committed to 
     monitoring the implementation of section 911 of the National 
     Defense Authorization Act of Fiscal Year 2017 (Public Law 
     114-328).
     Limitation on transfer of the Chemical, Biological, and 
         Radiological Defense Division of the Navy (sec. 919)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 922) that would 
     require the Secretary of the Navy to provide a report to the 
     congressional defense committees on the timeline, costs, 
     risks, and benefits of transferring the Chemical, Biological, 
     and Radiological Defense Division in Dahlgren, Virginia, to 
     another location.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes with a technical amendment.
       The conferees note the Chemical, Biological, and 
     Radiological Defense Division of the Navy, currently based at 
     the Naval Surface Warfare Center in Dahlgren, Virginia, 
     consists of a highly effective team of scientists performing 
     critical work for the United States. The Secretary of the 
     Navy has notified Congress of the intent to transfer the 
     division to another location, however, the Secretary has not 
     provided Congress with a detailed cost benefit analysis or 
     any other information that adequately justifies the proposed 
     transfer of the division.

  Subtitle C--Comprehensive Pentagon Bureaucracy Reform and Reduction

     Authorities and responsibilities of the Chief Management 
         Officer of the Department of Defense (sec. 921)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 911) that would 
     amend the authorities of the Chief Management Officer to 
     include budget authority and would authorize the Chief 
     Management Officer to reduce or eliminate duplicative cross-
     enterprise functions across all Defense Agencies and Field 
     Activities.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes with an amendment that would amend the 
     Chief Management Officer's budget authority over all 
     enterprise business operations, adjust the execution 
     requirements to ensure greatest efficiency for

[[Page H7495]]

     the Department of Defense, and synchronize cost savings 
     reporting associated with increasing effectiveness and 
     efficiency of certain activities.
     Analysis of Department of Defense business management and 
         operations datasets to promote savings and efficiencies 
         (sec. 922)
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 941) that 
     would direct the Chief Management Officer to develop a policy 
     on the analysis of Department of Defense datasets on business 
     management and operations and to pilot three to five of these 
     previously non-public datasets under that policy.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes with a technical amendment.
       The conferees urge the Department to use the exposure of 
     business management and operations datasets as a tool for the 
     accomplishment of enterprise business reform.

     unclassified information or classified information, or 
     becoming a cleared defense contractor, the company would have 
     to report to the Secretary any foreign direction or 
     controlling interest in the company or any access to 
     intellectual property relating to classified information or 
     controlled unclassified information. The Secretary would also 
     be required to make a determination on the basis of such a

       The conferees note the importance of maintaining a 
     technological advantage in artificial intelligence and 
     associated technologies related to national security and 
     defense. While technological developments in these areas are 
     critical, it is also vital to assess the implications of the 
     incorporation of artificial intelligence into future defense 
     applications and the risks associated with foreign adversary 
     advances in military employment of artificial intelligence 
     and machine learning, including international law of armed 
     conflict, humanitarian law, ethical guidelines, and 
     escalation dynamics.

         electromagnetic spectrum operations (sec. 1053)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1058) that would 
     require the Secretary of Defense, in consultation with the 
     Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff (CJCS), to develop an 
     implementation plan to conduct joint campaign modeling and 
     wargaming for joint electromagnetic spectrum operations 
     (JEMSO) of the Department of Defense (DOD), and to submit 
     that plan in the form of a report. It would also require a 
     briefing on essential topics and functions of the 
     Department's JEMSO enterprise.
       The Senate amendment contained a similar provision (sec. 
     1032) that would establish a senior designated official and 
     an associated cross-functional team to update DOD's June 2017 
     Electronic Warfare strategy and submit it, along with a road 
     map of the referenced requirements and plans. The road map 
     would include: (1) The efforts undertaken in support of the 
     2017 DOD Electronic Warfare strategy and any updates or 
     changes to the strategy since its issuance; (2) A review of 
     the vulnerabilities identified in the May 2015 Electronic 
     Warfare assessment; (3) An assessment of the capability of 
     the joint force to conduct joint electromagnetic spectrum 
     operations against peer competitors; and (4) A description of 
     actions, performance metrics, projected timelines for 
     achieving key capabilities for electronic warfare and joint 
     electromagnetic spectrum operations.
       The House recedes with an amendment that would modify the 
     roles and responsibilities of the senior designated official. 
     It would also update the reporting requirements to include an 
     assessment of the electronic warfare capabilities of Russia 
     and China, a review of U.S. vulnerabilities with respect to 
     electronic systems, and a study of the manner in which Russia 
     and China develop electronic warfare doctrine. The amendment 
     would also strengthen the capacity of the senior designated 
     official and the Electronic Warfare Executive Committee to 
     propose governance, management, organizational, and 
     operational reforms to the Secretary of Defense.
       The conferees note the operational advantages provided by 
     electronic warfare and cyber capabilities and expects the 
     Department to dedicate additional resources to the problem 
     set. The conferees remain concerned that electronic and cyber 
     warfare are two warfighting areas where our peer adversaries, 
     such as China and Russia, are establishing significant 
     asymmetric advantages and the conferees urge swift action by 
     the Department's leadership to regain United States 
     superiority in these warfighting areas.
       The conferees direct the Secretary of Defense, in 
     coordination with the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, 
     to provide the congressional defense committees a briefing 
     not later than February 25, 2019, on: (1) An update on the 
     progress of the Department in implementing the pilot program 
     authorized by section 234 of the National Defense 
     Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2017 (Public Law 114-328; 
     10 U.S.C. 113 note); (2) The progress of the Department in 
     establishing a network to connect an electromagnetic battle 
     management system to multiple sensor and intelligence data 
     feeds to implement electronic warfare battle management for 
     networked electronic warfare and dynamic reprogramming with 
     automated near real-time capabilities, and (3) The number of 
     personnel assigned to joint electromagnetic spectrum 
     operations mission activities. The personnel information 
     should include officers, enlisted members, and civilian 
     personnel, set forth separately by career field designator 
     and rank for each military service, combatant command, and 
     defense agency. It should also include a comparison of 
     commissioned officer promotion rates, by grade, as compared 
     to the average promotion rates for commissioned officers, by 
     grade, in each military service, over the five most recent 
     promotion cycles that have been completed since the end of 
     fiscal year 2018.

     inventory numbers. The details of the report would be based 
     on the Department of Defense's munitions requirements 
     process.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes.
     Improvement of annual report on civilian casualties in 
         connection with United States military operations (sec. 
         1062)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1051) that would 
     amend section 1057(b)(2) of the National Defense 
     Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2018 (Public Law 115-91) to 
     include an annual reporting requirement on civilian 
     casualties in connection with U.S. military operations.

[[Page H7500]]

       The Senate amendment contained a similar provision (sec. 
     1046) that would amend section 1057 of the National Defense 
     Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2018 (Public Law 115-91) to 
     clarify annual reporting requirements on civilian casualties 
     in connection with United States military operations.
       The House recedes.
     Report on capabilities and capacities of Armored Brigade 
         Combat Teams (sec. 1063)
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 1045) that 
     would require the Secretary of the Army to submit a report on 
     the capabilities and capacities of Armored Brigade Combat 
     Teams.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes.
     Activities and reporting related to Department of Defense's 
         Cloud Initiative (sec. 1064)
       The House bill contained a provision that would prohibit 
     certain funds authorized to be appropriated by this Act from 
     being obligated or expended for the Joint Enterprise Defense 
     Infrastructure until the Secretary of Defense provides a 
     report to the congressional defense committees on the Joint 
     Enterprise Defense Infrastructure.
       The Senate amendment contained a provision that would 
     direct the Cloud Executive Steering Group to execute certain 
     activities enabling the Joint Enterprise Defense 
     Infrastructure such as securing networks and conducting 
     workload migration analysis. The Senate amendment also 
     contained a limitation on new system and application 
     approvals unless an assessment that such system is, can, or 
     would be cloud-hosted. Additionally, the Senate amendment 
     contained a provision providing for transparency and 
     competition.
       The Senate recedes with an amendment that lowers the 
     prohibition on certain funds, provides for a waiver on the 
     new system and application approval, and directs the Chief 
     Information Officer of the Department of Defense (DOD), 
     acting through the Cloud Executive Steering Group, to conduct 
     certain activities enabling DOD's cloud initiatives.
       The conferees have long championed modernization of 
     information technology throughout DOD agencies, services, and 
     other entities to facilitate efficiencies, cost-savings, 
     enhance performance, and to provide our warfighters with 
     cutting-edge capabilities on and off the battlefield. The 
     conferees emphasize the importance of modernizing networks by 
     adopting advancing commercial capabilities to achieve DOD's 
     cloud transition and enterprise efficiency goals. Further, 
     the conferees believe that workload analysis is critical to 
     understanding migration feasibility and costs. Especially 
     where barriers stem from technical, intellectual property, 
     and data rights issues that are poorly understood, such 
     barriers may fundamentally limit the potential utility of 
     commercial cloud services to the Department.
       The conferees encourage the Department to continue to 
     ensure that cloud technologies are technically suitable, 
     appropriately tested for security and reliability, and 
     integrated with other DOD information technology efforts so 
     as to optimize effective and efficient procurement of such 
     technologies and services and their performance in support of 
     DOD missions.
       Finally, the conferees note that although transparency and 
     information sharing by the Department on the Cloud Initiative 
     has slightly improved, it continues to be insufficient for 
     conducting congressional oversight. The conferees expect the 
     Department to improve communication with Congress on this 
     issue and will consider additional legislation if an 
     improvement is not seen.
     Limitation on use of funds for United States Special 
         Operations Command Global Messaging and Counter-Messaging 
         platform (sec. 1065)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1054) that would 
     limit the availability of funds authorized to be appropriated 
     by this Act, or otherwise made available for fiscal year 
     2019, until the Secretary of Defense provides a report to the 
     congressional defense committees on the United States Special 
     Operations Command (SOCOM) Global Messaging and Counter-
     Messaging (GMCM) platform.
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 1033) that 
     would prohibit the use of any funds authorized to be 
     appropriated by this Act for the SOCOM GMCM platform until 
     the Secretary of Defense submits to the congressional defense 
     committees a report containing detailed information relating 
     to the platform and SOCOM's military information support 
     enterprise.
       The House recedes with an amendment that would prohibit the 
     use of any funds authorized to be appropriated by this Act 
     for SOCOM's GMCM platform until the Secretary of Defense 
     submits to the congressional defense committees a report 
     containing detailed information relating to the platform. The 
     conferees understand that the Secretary of Defense identified 
     SOCOM as the Department of Defense's (DOD) proponent for 
     military information support operations (MISO) and directed 
     the establishment of a centralized GMCM platform at SOCOM. 
     Given SOCOM's transregional approach to matters within its 
     purview, the conferees believe the command is positioned to 
     play an important role in supporting the GMCM activities of 
     the other combatant commands by enabling facilities and 
     contracting efficiencies, the capture and adoption of best 
     practices, and messaging consistency across geographic 
     boundaries. However, the budget request lacks sufficient 
     detail on the plan for establishment of the GMCM capability, 
     including the identification of budget, infrastructure and 
     equipment requirements for the platform to reach full 
     operational capability as well as an identification of long-
     term sustainment costs. Additionally, the conferees require 
     greater understanding of how GMCM planning and activities 
     will be de-conflicted and, where possible, integrated with 
     the planning and activities of the combatant commands as well 
     as other relevant departments and agencies of the United 
     States Government, including the Department of State's Global 
     Engagement Center.
       The amendment would also require the Secretary of Defense 
     not later than 9 months after the date of the enactment of 
     this Act to submit to the congressional defense committees a 
     report containing a review and assessment of the doctrine, 
     organization, training, materiel, leadership and education, 
     personnel, and facilities applicable to military information 
     support personnel and recommend changes for enhancing the 
     ability of military information support personnel to operate 
     effectively in the current and future information 
     environment.
     Comprehensive review of professionalism and ethics programs 
         for special operations forces (sec. 1066)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1055) that would 
     direct the Secretary of Defense, in coordination with the 
     Secretaries of the military departments, to conduct a 
     comprehensive review of the ethics and professionalism 
     programs of the U.S. Special Operations Command (SOCOM) and 
     the military departments for officers and other military 
     personnel serving in special operations forces. This section 
     would require the Secretary of Defense to submit the review 
     to the Committees on Armed Services of the Senate and the 
     House of Representatives by March 1, 2019.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes with an amendment that would require the 
     Secretary of Defense to conduct a comprehensive review of the 
     ethics programs and professionalism programs of SOCOM and of 
     the military departments for officers and other military 
     personnel serving in special operations forces and submit the 
     review to the Committees on Armed Services of the Senate and 
     the House of Representatives by March 1, 2019.
     Munitions assessments and future-years defense program 
         requirements (sec. 1067)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1056) that would 
     require the Under Secretary of Defense for Acquisition and 
     Sustainment to provide all relevant documents related to the 
     Department of Defense's munitions requirements process, as 
     well as provide the planned funding and munitions 
     requirements required for fiscal year 2020 and across the 
     Future Years Defense Program for munitions across all 
     military services and the Missile Defense Agency. This 
     section would also require the Under Secretary to evaluate 
     and identify supply chain risks, including qualified supplier 
     shortages or single source supplier vulnerabilities for 
     munitions production.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes.

     require the Secretary of the Army to submit a report on the 
     Army's plan for the establishment of Army Futures Command.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes.
     Report on cyber-enabled information operations (sec. 1069)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1061) that would 
     require the President to provide to the Committees on Armed 
     Services and Foreign Affairs of the House of Representatives 
     and the Committees on Armed Services and Foreign Relations of 
     the Senate a report, not later than 180 days after the date 
     of the enactment of this Act, on the effects of cyber-enabled 
     information operations on the national security of the United 
     States.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes.
     Report on unmanned aircraft in Arlington National Cemetery 
         (sec. 1070)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1062) that 
     states a sense of Congress that the Administrator of the 
     Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) and the Secretary of 
     Defense should coordinate to: (1) Prevent the flight of 
     unmanned aircraft over Arlington National Cemetery, to the 
     maximum amount practical, in order to preserve the sacred 
     atmosphere of the cemetery as a national shrine; and (2) 
     Restrict all flights of unmanned aircraft over Arlington 
     National Cemetery during the execution of funeral services, 
     except in emergency situations, the execution of national 
     security operations, and unmanned aircraft flown at the 
     request of the family participating in funeral services. The 
     provision would require a briefing from the Secretary and the 
     FAA Administrator not later than 60 days after the date of 
     the enactment of this Act, to the Committees on Armed 
     Services, Transportation and

[[Page H7501]]

     Infrastructure, and Veterans' Affairs of the House of 
     Representatives and the Committees on Armed Services, 
     Commerce, Science, and Transportation, and Veterans' Affairs 
     of the Senate on whether legislative action is required to 
     prevent low flying unmanned aircraft from disrupting funerals 
     at Arlington National Cemetery.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes with an amendment that would require the 
     Secretary of Defense and the FAA Administrator to submit a 
     letter report to the same committees not later than 90 days 
     after the date of the enactment of this Act.
       The conferees encourage the Secretary of Defense and the 
     FAA Administrator to coordinate on the prevention of 
     unauthorized flights of unmanned aircraft over Arlington 
     National Cemetery to preserve the sanctity of the cemetery as 
     a national shrine.
     Report on an updated Arctic strategy (sec. 1071)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1063) that would 
     require the Secretary of Defense to submit not later than 
     June 1, 2019 to the congressional defense committees a report 
     on an updated Arctic strategy to improve and enhance joint 
     operations, with additional reporting on Russian and Chinese 
     activity in the Arctic region.
       The Senate amendment contained a similar provision (sec. 
     1253) that would require the service secretaries to submit to 
     the congressional defense committees a report on the strategy 
     of the Army, the Navy, the Marine Corps, and the Air Force, 
     respectively, for the Arctic region.
       The Senate recedes with an amendment that would require the 
     report to include a description of the United States national 
     security interests in the Arctic region, an assessment of the 
     threats and security challenges posed by adversaries in the 
     region, and a description of the level of cooperation between 
     the Department of Defense and other relevant departments, 
     agencies, and State, local, and Tribal entities related to 
     the defense of the region.
     Report on use and availability of military installations for 
         disaster response (sec. 1072)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1093) that would 
     require the Secretary of Defense to conduct a report on the 
     use and availability of military installations for disaster 
     response.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes.
     Report on Department of Defense participation in Export 
         Administration Regulations license application review 
         process (sec. 1073)
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 1047) that 
     would require the Under Secretary of Defense for Policy to 
     submit to the congressional defense committees a report on 
     the participation by the Department of Defense in the process 
     for reviewing applications for export licenses under the 
     Export Administration Regulations as a reviewing agency under 
     Executive Order 12981. The provision would require that the 
     report be submitted to the congressional defense committees 
     not later than 180 days after the enactment of this Act and 
     every 180 days thereafter until the date that is 3 years 
     after such date of enactment.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes with an amendment that would add the 
     Committee on Foreign Relations of the Senate and the 
     Committee on Foreign Affairs of the House as recipients of 
     the report.
     Military aviation readiness review in support of the National 
         Defense Strategy (sec. 1074)
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 1044) that 
     would require the Secretary of Defense to establish a joint 
     review of military aviation and deliver an accompanying 
     report to the Committees on Armed Services of the Senate and 
     the House of Representatives. The Senate bill also contained 
     a provision (sec. 6003) that would make a technical 
     correction to sec. 1044.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes with an amendment that would incorporate 
     the technical correction into the underlying provision.
     Report on highest-priority roles and missions of the 
         Department of Defense and the Armed Forces (sec. 1075)
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 1041) that 
     would require the Secretary of Defense to provide a report to 
     the congressional defense committees concerning a re-
     evaluation of the highest priority missions for the 
     Department of Defense, the roles of the Joint Force in the 
     performance of such missions, and the capability requirements 
     which stem from them. The required report, due February 2019, 
     includes a series of questions further inquiring about the 
     specific impacts of the National Defense Strategy on the 
     Department of Defense.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes with an amendment that would modify the 
     questions of the report requirement to re-evaluate the roles 
     and missions of the Joint Force. Furthermore, the amendment 
     would require the report be submitted by March 31, 2019.
       The conferees note that a new National Defense Strategy was 
     released in 2018 prioritizing the development of a more 
     lethal joint force that is ready to deter and, if necessary, 
     defeat aggression by great power competitors with advanced 
     military capabilities. The conferees realize that the 
     Department has begun implementing the National Defense 
     Strategy, however, the strategy, and its implications for the 
     size, structure, shape, mission, and employment of the joint 
     force, were not completed in time to fully inform the 
     President's fiscal year 2019 budget request. As the 
     Department continues to implement changes from the National 
     Defense Strategy, the conferees recommend the Department 
     conduct further analytical work in order to facilitate the 
     implementation of the strategy.

                       Subtitle F--Other Matters

     Technical, conforming, and clerical amendments (sec. 1081)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1071) that would 
     make a number of technical, conforming, and clerical 
     amendments of a non-substantive nature to existing law.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes with a technical amendment.
     Principal Advisor on Countering Weapons of Mass Destruction 
         (sec. 1082)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1072) that would 
     direct the Secretary of Defense to designate, from among the 
     personnel of the Office of the Secretary of Defense, a 
     Principal Advisor on Countering Weapons of Mass Destruction 
     (CWMD). Such individual would act as the Principal Advisor to 
     the Secretary on the activities of the Department of Defense 
     relating to countering weapons of mass destruction. 
     Furthermore, this provision would require a plan for 
     realigning or restructuring the current CWMD oversight 
     framework of the Office of the Secretary of Defense.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes with an amendment that would change the 
     directive to designate a Principal Advisor on CWMD to a 
     permissive recommendation to create such a position. The 
     amendment would also require a plan 180 days after the date 
     of enactment to streamline oversight of countering weapons of 
     mass destruction within the Office of the Secretary of 
     Defense. The amendment requires the Secretary to issue a 
     directive not later than 90 days after the oversight plan is 
     issued for the Countering Weapon of Mass Destruction (WMD)--
     Unity of Effort Council to implement the plan within the 
     Department. Finally, concurrent with the annual budget 
     submission by the Department, through fiscal year 2024, the 
     Secretary shall submit a concise budget summary provided by 
     the Comptroller for all countering WMD activities of the 
     Department, including, a list of actions taken to promote the 
     unity of effort for countering WMD, a list of topics the 
     Countering WMD--Unity of Effort Council has considered and 
     their resolution, a list of current and future WMD threats 
     and a plan consistent with the future years defense program 
     to counter those threats.
     Modification of authority to transfer aircraft to other 
         departments for wildfire suppression purposes (sec. 1083)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1075) that would 
     amend section 1098 of the National Defense Authorization Act 
     for Fiscal Year 2014 (Public Law 113-66) to relieve the Air 
     Force from the mandate to modify United States Coast Guard 
     (USCG) HC-130H aircraft with firefighting capabilities for 
     use by the United States Forest Service (USFS).
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes with an amendment that would maintain 
     the mandate for the Air Force to modify the USCG HC-130H 
     aircraft, but designate the state of California as the 
     ultimate recipient of the aircraft, vice the USFS.
     Improvement of database on emergency response capabilities 
         (sec. 1084)
       The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 1062) that 
     would amend section 1406 of the National Defense 
     Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2007 (Public Law 109-364) 
     to require the Department of Defense (DOD) to establish the 
     database required under that section not later than one year 
     after the date of enactment of this Act. Furthermore, the 
     provision would require the database to include information 
     on the emergency response capabilities of the National Guard 
     of each U.S. Territory and information on the cyber 
     capabilities of National Guard and Reserve units identified 
     by DOD as critical for response to domestic natural or man-
     made disasters. Finally, the provision would clarify that the 
     Department may use an existing database or system to fulfill 
     the requirement to establish a database under certain 
     circumstances.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes with a technical, clarifying amendment.
     Disclosure requirements for United States-based foreign media 
         outlets (sec. 1085)

     add section 722 to title 47, United States Code, to mandate 
     disclosure requirements for United States-based foreign media 
     outlets. The provision would also require a report from 
     United States-based foreign media outlets to the Federal 
     Communications Commission not later than 60 days after the 
     enactment of this Act and not less than every 6 months 
     thereafter. The Commission would also submit a report to 
     Congress not later than 90 days after the enactment of this 
     Act and not less than every 6 months thereafter on their 
     findings and ensure the findings are available for public 
     consumption.

[[Page H7502]]

       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes.
       The conferees recognize the need for greater transparency 
     of foreign government owned media outlets. Foreign 
     governments, namely Russia and China, use government media to 
     disseminate disinformation to sway public opinion and impact 
     our political processes. The conferees direct such outlets 
     disclose their foreign government ownership to Congress and 
     the American people to ensure there is greater visibility of 
     the role of foreign governments in our media landscape. The 
     conferees note this provision is intended to apply only to 
     foreign-based media companies who act as an agent of or at 
     the order, request, or under the direct control of a 
     government of a foreign country or foreign political party.
     United States policy with respect to freedom of navigation 
         and overflight (sec. 1086)
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 1064) that 
     would state that it is the policy of the United States to 
     fly, sail, and operate throughout the oceans, seas, and 
     airspace of the world wherever international law allows. The 
     provisions would also set forth certain steps the Secretary 
     of Defense should take in the implementation of such policy.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes with an amendment that would clarify that 
     the United States, in furtherance of its policy with respect 
     to freedom of navigation and overflight, should execute 
     routine and regular air and maritime freedom of navigation 
     operations throughout the year in accordance with 
     international law, including, but not limited to, maneuvers 
     beyond innocent passage.
     National Commission on Military Aviation Safety (sec. 1087)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1078) that would 
     establish a National Commission on Military Aviation Safety.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes with an amendment that would provide 
     further details on the establishment and operations of the 
     commission.
       The conferees believe the Secretary of Defense should take 
     all appropriate actions to increase aircraft maintenance 
     availability and pilot training and proficiency to ensure the 
     highest levels of flight safety.
     Sense of Congress regarding the international borders of the 
         United States (sec. 1088)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1084) that would 
     express the sense of Congress on the importance of gaining 
     and maintaining control of the international borders of the 
     United States, the role and importance of devoting adequate 
     resources for the Department of Homeland Security to 
     accomplish that mission, and the role and importance of 
     adequate resources for the Department of Defense to support 
     that mission while maintaining combat readiness.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes.
     Policy on response to juvenile-on-juvenile problematic sexual 
         behavior committed on military installations (sec. 1089)
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 1036) that 
     would require the Secretary of Defense to establish a policy, 
     applicable across the military installations of the 
     Department of Defense, on the response of the Department to 
     allegations of juvenile-on-juvenile abuse on military 
     installations.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes with an amendment that would require the 
     Secretary to establish a policy, applicable across the 
     military installations of the Department of Defense, on the 
     response of the Department to allegations of juvenile-on-
     juvenile problematic sexual behavior on military 
     installations.
     Recognition of America's veterans (sec. 1090)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1077) that would 
     authorize the Secretary of Defense to provide support as the 
     Secretary determines to be appropriate for a parade to be 
     carried out in the District of Columbia. The Secretary would 
     be permitted to expend funds for the display of small arms 
     and munitions appropriate for customary ceremonial honors and 
     for the participation of military units that perform 
     customary ceremonial duties. The provision would prohibit the 
     expenditure of funds to provide certain vehicles, platforms, 
     munitions, and operational units if the Secretary determines 
     doing so would undermine military readiness.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes.
     Prohibition of funds for Chinese language instruction 
         provided by a Confucius Institute (sec. 1091)
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 1065) that 
     would that would prohibit funds to be obligated or expended

     Institute unless the Under Secretary of Defense for Personnel 
     and Readiness provides a certification to the congressional 
     defense committees concerning the relationship of Confucius 
     Institute employees and instructors to the Chinese language 
     program.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes with an amendment that would clarify that 
     none of the funds authorized to be appropriated by this Act 
     or otherwise made available for the Department of Defense 
     under this Act may be obligated or expended for Chinese 
     language instruction provided by a Confucius Institute. The 
     amendment would also impose a limitation on funds authorized 
     to be appropriated by this Act or otherwise made available 
     for the Department of Defense under this Act may be obligated 
     or expended to support a Chinese language program at an 
     institution of higher education that hosts a Confucius 
     Institute. The amendment would allow the Undersecretary of 
     Defense for Personnel and Readiness to waive this limitation 
     if the Under Secretary certifies to the congressional defense 
     committees that (a) Confucius Institute employees and 
     instructors will provide no instruction or educational 
     support to the program; (b) Confucius Institute employees and 
     instructors will have no authority with regard to the 
     curriculum and activities of the program; and (c) the

     agreements between the institution and the Confucius 
     Institute, or between the institution and any agency of or 
     organization affiliated with the government of the People's 
     Republic of China. The amendment would also clarify that the 
     prohibition and limitation shall not apply to an institution 
     of higher education by reason that the institution funds or 
     sponsors an event or activity, regardless of any affiliation 
     of any individual who participates in the event or activity, 
     and shall not be construed to prohibit funding for other 
     programs, research or other activities at an institution that 
     hosts a Confucius institute.

         entities in support of missions of deployed United States 
         personnel around the world (sec. 1092)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1074) that would 
     amend title 36, United States Code, to establish a federal 
     charter for Spirit of America.
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 1063) that 
     would express the sense of the Senate regarding collaboration 
     with and the provision of logistical support to covered non-
     Federal entities, including Spirit of America and would 
     authorize the Department of Defense (DOD), consistent with 
     applicable guidance, to accept from any covered non-Federal 
     entity privately funded humanitarian, economic, and other 
     nonlethal assistance; and respond to requests from covered 
     non-Federal entities for the identification of the needs of 
     local populations abroad for assistance, and coordinate with 
     such entities in the provision and distribution of such 
     assistance.
       The House recedes with an amendment that would express the 
     sense of Congress that United States military commanders 
     should, consistent with applicable laws, regulations, and 
     guidance developed consistent with section 1088 of the 
     National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2018 
     (Public Law 115-91), engage with and provide logistical 
     support to covered non-Federal entities, including Spirit of 
     America, to advance the military missions of the Armed 
     Forces. The amendment would also require not later than one 
     year after the date of enactment of this Act the Secretary of 
     Defense, with the concurrence of the Secretary of State, to 
     submit to the appropriate congressional committees a report 
     on DOD engagement with covered non-federal entities.

                   Legislative Provisions Not Adopted

     Inclusion of funds for Air Force pass-through items in 
         Defense-wide budget for the Department of Defense
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 1002) that 
     would require the Secretary of Defense to transfer Air Force 
     pass-through budget items to the defense-wide budget for 
     fiscal year 2020 and future budget requests.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes.
     Department of Defense support for combating opioid 
         trafficking and abuse
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1011) that would 
     express the sense of Congress on the role of the Department 
     of Defense in support of other Federal agencies addressing 
     the opioid epidemic in the United States. The provision would 
     further increase funds authorized to be appropriated to the 
     Department of Defense National Guard counterdrug programs for 
     fiscal year 2019 by $20.0 million.
       The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes.
       The conferees express strong concern over the growth of the 
     opioid epidemic in the United States over the past 15 years. 
     The number of deaths in the United States related to opioid 
     use in 2016 was 42,269 according to the Centers for Disease 
     Control and Prevention. The conferees note that the Office of 
     National Drug Control Policy is the lead agency for 
     coordinating the Federal response to address the opioid 
     epidemic. The Department of Defense plays a vital supporting 
     role by providing key capabilities such as intelligence 
     analysis, preventative education programs, and assistance to 
     other lead Federal government interagency partners. The 
     conferees encourage continued

[[Page H7503]]

     strong cooperation between the Department of Defense and 
     other Federal partners in identifying transnational criminal 
     organizations and combating the opioid epidemic.
     Authority to transfer individuals detained at United States 
         Naval Station, Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, to the United States 
         temporarily for emergency or critical medical treatment
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 1025) that 
     would authorize the temporary transfer of individuals 
     detained at United States Naval Station, Guantanamo Bay, Cuba 
     to the United States for necessary medical treatment that is 
     not available at Guantanamo.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes.
     Sense of Congress on the basing of KC-46A aircraft outside 
         the continental United States
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 1034) that 
     would express the sense of Congress on the basing KC-46A 
     aircraft outside the continental United States.
       The House bill contained a similar provision (sec. 1099A).
       The Senate and the House recede.
       The conferees agree that the Secretary of the Air Force, as 
     part of the strategic basing process for KC-46A aircraft, 
     should continue to consider the benefits derived from 
     locations outside the continental United States that:
       (1) Support day-to-day air refueling operations, operations 
     plans of the combatant commands, and flexibility for 
     contingency operations, and have:
       (a) a strategic location that is essential to the defense 
     of the United States and its interests;
       (b) receivers for boom or probe-and-drogue training 
     opportunities with joint and international partners; and
       (c) sufficient airfield and airspace availability and 
     capacity to meet requirements; and
       (2) Possess facilities that:
       (a) take full advantage of existing infrastructure to 
     provide --
       (i) runway, hangars, and aircrew and maintenance 
     operations; and
       (ii) sufficient fuels receipt, storage and distribution 
     capacities for a 5-day peacetime operating stock; and
       (b) minimize overall construction and operational costs.
     Relinquishment of legislative jurisdiction of criminal 
         offenses on military installations
       The Senate amendment included a provision (sec. 1035) that 
     would, in the case of any military installation or portion of 
     a military installation of which exclusive legislative 
     jurisdiction of criminal offenses committed by juveniles is 
     retained by the United States as of the date of the enactment 
     of this Act, would require the relevant service secretary to 
     seek to relinquish to the State, Commonwealth, territory, or 
     possession concerned legislative jurisdiction of such 
     offenses such that the United States and the State, 
     Commonwealth, territory, or possession would have concurrent 
     legislative jurisdiction of such offenses.
       The House bill included no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes.
       The conferees are concerned about the lack of State or 
     local criminal jurisdiction over offenses committed on those 
     portions of military installations with exclusive Federal 
     jurisdiction by individuals not subject to the Uniform Code 
     of Military Justice. Therefore, the conferees direct service 
     secretaries to seek to relinquish jurisdiction pursuant to 
     section 2683 of title 10, United States Code, such that the 
     United States and the State, Commonwealth, territory, or 
     possession would have concurrent jurisdiction over offenses 
     committed on these military installations. Not later than 15 
     months after the date of enactment of this act, each service 
     secretary shall submit a report to the Committees on Armed 
     Services of the Senate and the House of Representatives on 
     the relinquishment of jurisdiction. The report shall include 
     the following pertaining to military installations under the 
     jurisdiction of the Secretary: (1) A list of the 
     installations or portions of installations where jurisdiction 
     was relinquished pursuant to this directive; (2) A list of 
     the installations or portions of installations where the 
     Secretary offered to relinquish jurisdiction, but the State, 
     Commonwealth, territory, or possession declined to accept the 
     relinquishment of jurisdiction; (3) A list of the 
     installations or portions of installations where the 
     Secretary elected not to seek relinquishment of jurisdiction 
     and the reason for not seeking such relinquishment; and (4) A 
     complete list of the installations or portions of 
     installations of which the United States continues to 
     exercise exclusive jurisdiction over criminal offenses as of 
     the date of the report.
       For juvenile offenses committed on portions of military 
     installations where concurrent jurisdiction exists, the 
     conferees strongly urge that jurisdiction over individual 
     cases involving juveniles be relinquished only where the 
     State, Commonwealth, territory, or possession concerned has 
     procedures under which cases involving juvenile offenders can 
     be adjudicated in a juvenile proceeding unless the offense is 
     of sufficient gravity that adjudication as an adult is 
     appropriate. Additionally, the conferees encourage the 
     military command and the entity exercising jurisdiction over 
     juveniles to seek to avoid unnecessary separation of 
     juveniles from parents or legal guardians.
     Automatic sunset for future statutory reporting requirements
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 1048) that 
     would establish an automatic sunset of three years for future 
     statutory reporting requirements of indefinite duration.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes.
       The conferees note that excess reporting requirements 
     impose costs on the Department of Defense that compound over 
     time. The conferees direct the Secretary of Defense to report 
     to the congressional defense committees, no later than April 
     1, 2019, a list of reporting requirements of indefinite 
     duration that the Secretary believes are over-burdensome or 
     overcome by other requirements. Such report should include 
     the Secretary's analysis of reports listed in section 1061 of 
     the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2017 
     (Public Law 114-328).
     Sale of surplus Department of Defense equipment to eligible 
         farmers
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1050) that would 
     permit the Secretary of Defense, in consultation with the 
     Secretary of Agriculture, to transfer excess Department of 
     Defense (DOD) equipment related to farming to eligible 
     military veterans who are beginning careers as farmers prior 
     to such property being made available for public sale.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes.
       The conferees encourage the Defense Logistics Agency to 
     continue to engage with and educate relevant stakeholder 
     organizations, current customers, and prospective 
     participants, including veterans farming organizations, in 
     programs that sell or transfer excess DOD property to ensure 
     that the programs reach a wide array of customers, including 
     military veterans beginning careers in the agricultural 
     sector.

     the Committees on Armed Services of the Senate and the House 
     of Representatives no later than December 1, 2019, reviewing 
     educational institutions of the Department of Defense (DOD). 
     The review would be conducted by an outside organization with 
     expertise in analyzing matters in connection with higher 
     education.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes.
       The conferees note that the Comptroller General of the 
     United States is currently conducting a study at the 
     direction of Committee on Armed Services of the House of 
     Representatives related to the quality of curricula and 
     faculty at Professional Military Education (PME) and Joint 
     Professional Military Education (JPME) institutions. In 
     addition to the questions addressed by that study, the 
     conferees direct the Comptroller General to provide 
     preliminary observations to the Committees on Armed Services 
     of the Senate and the House of Representatives, no later than 
     February 1, 2019, with a report to follow, that are address 
     the following additional questions:

     requirements of the educational institutions of the DOD 
     compare with the admission standards, graduation 
     requirements, and graduation rates of public and private 
     institutions of higher education?
       (2) How do the goals and missions of the educational 
     institutions of the DOD compare with the goal and missions of

     provisions focusing on artificial intelligence progress and 
     governance within the Department of Defense.

     direct the Secretary of Defense to submit to the 
     congressional defense committees a report on the Department 
     of Defense's (DOD) support to non-contiguous States and 
     Territories in the aftermath of natural or man-made

     not identified as a priority when allocating resources in 
     support of a military unit's readiness. Therefore, the 
     conferees direct the Secretary of Defense to provide a 
     briefing to the Armed Services Committees of the Senate and 
     House of Representatives not later than March 1, 2019, that 
     assesses the readiness of the Department of Defense to

     efforts. Specifically, the briefing should address the

     capability of military installations to provide staging for 
     disaster relief operations and temporary housing for those 
     who are victims of natural disasters.

     unexploded ordnance and improvised explosive devices remains 
     persistent, and EOD units must be appropriately equipped to 
     provide an effective response.

     funding for numerous military construction projects at 
     installations across the country to prepare for the delivery 
     and bed down of the KC-46A aircraft; (3) As the KC-46A 
     program matures and requirements become better defined, 
     additional military construction and facilities, sustainment, 
     restoration and modernization (FRSM) funding is likely to be 
     necessary to properly support the fielding of the aircraft, 
     house additional personnel, and meet unforeseen requirements 
     of the tanker mission; and (4) The Secretary of the Air Force

         security forces (sec. 1201)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1210B) that

         required for small scale construction related to security 
         cooperation (sec. 1203)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1206) that would 
     increase the limitation on small-scale construction related 
     to security cooperation from $750,000 to $2.0 million.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes with an amendment that would increase 
     the limitation on small-scale construction related to

     would make technical corrections to title 10, United States 
     Code, and other legislation referencing sections that were 
     redesignated under section 1241 of the National Defense 
     Authorization Act of Fiscal Year 2017 (Public Law 114-328).
       The Senate recedes.
     Review and report on processes and procedures used to carry 
         out section 362 of title 10, United States Code (sec. 
         1205)

     require the Secretary of Defense, with the concurrence of the 
     Secretary of State, to conduct a review of the processes and 
     procedures used to carry out section 362 of title 10, United 
     States Code, and submit a report to the appropriate 
     congressional committees on such review. This section would 
     also make conforming amendments to section 362 and to section 
     1206 of the Carl Levin and Howard P. ``Buck'' McKeon National 
     Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2015 (Public Law 
     113-291).

       The Senate recedes with an amendment that would make 
     modifications to the review required by this section and make 
     conforming changes to section 1206 of the Carl Levin and 
     Howard P. ``Buck'' McKeon National Defense Authorization Act

     United States. This section would also require the Secretary 
     of Defense to include a report on funding for this purpose 
     with the consolidated budget materials for security 
     cooperation required by section 381 of title 10, United

     sense of the Congress that the Secretary of Defense should 
     utilize appropriate security cooperation authorities to 
     counter malign influence campaigns by strategic competitors 
     and other state actors that are directed at allied and 
     partner countries and that pose a significant threat to the 
     national security of the United States. The amendment would 
     also require the Secretary of Defense to include with the 
     consolidated budget materials submitted to Congress as 
     required by section 381 of title 10, United States Code, for 
     fiscal years 2020 and 2021 a report on the use of security

[[Page H7508]]

     by strategic competitors and other state actors directed at 
     allied and partner countries and that pose a significant 
     threat to the national security of the United States.
     Participation in and support of the Inter-American Defense 
         College (sec. 1207)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1205) that would 
     permit the Secretary of Defense to authorize members of the 
     Armed Forces and civilian personnel of the Department of 
     Defense (DOD) to participate in the operation of and the 
     provision of support to the Inter-American Defense College 
     (IADC) and provide logistic support, supplies, and services 
     to the College as the Secretary considers necessary. The 
     provision would also require the Secretary, in concurrence 
     with the Secretary of State, to enter into a memorandum of 
     understanding with the Inter-American Defense Board regarding 
     the operation and provision of host nation support to the 
     IADC. Additionally, the provision would permit the use of 
     funds appropriated for operation and maintenance to pay the 
     costs for DOD personnel in the operation and provision of 
     host nation support to the IADC. It would also include a 
     waiver for reimbursement for developing countries for the 
     costs of funding and other host nation support to the IADC if 
     the Secretary determines that it is in the national security 
     interests of the United States.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes.
     Naval Small Craft Instruction and Technical Training School 
         (sec. 1208)
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 1207) that 
     would authorize the Secretary of Defense to operate and 
     maintain the Naval Small Craft Instruction and Technical 
     Training School.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes with a clarifying amendment.
     Expansion of Regional Defense Combating Terrorism Fellowship 
         Program to include irregular warfare (sec. 1209)
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 1203) that 
     would amend section 354 of title 10, United States Code and 
     expand the Regional Defense Combating Terrorism Fellowship 
     Program to include irregular warfare.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes with a clarifying amendment.
     Modification to Department of Defense State Partnership 
         Program (sec. 1210)
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 1202) that 
     would make a technical modification to section 341(b)(2) of 
     title 10, United States Code to clarify the conditions under 
     which vetting pursuant to section 362, title 10, United 
     States Code, is required for the conduct of Department of 
     Defense State Partnership Program activities.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes.
     Assessment, monitoring, and evaluation of security 
         cooperation (sec. 1211)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 346) that would 
     designate $12.0 million of funds available for the Defense 
     Security Cooperation Agency toward assessment, monitoring, 
     and evaluation (AM&E) of security cooperation activities in 
     accordance with section 383 of title 10, United States Code.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes with an amendment that states that of 
     the amounts for Operations and Maintenance, Defense-wide made 
     available to the Defense Security Cooperation Agency for 
     fiscal year 2019, it is the goal that not less than $12.0 
     million, but in no event less than $6.0 million, shall be 
     allocated for the AM&E of security cooperation activities in 
     accordance with section 383 of title 10, United States Code. 
     The conferees believe that the amount specifically identified 
     in the fiscal year 2019 budget request for AM&E of security 
     cooperation programs is wholly insufficient to meet 
     congressional intent. The significant growth of security 
     cooperation capacity building programs and associated funding 
     in recent years has far outpaced the Department's emphasis on 
     and resourcing of AM&E of those programs. The conferees 
     reiterate their expectation that the Department's AM&E 
     program should be rigorous and comprehensive, and provide for 
     the continuous review of security cooperation programs from 
     inception to completion that measure outcomes against defined 
     objectives. Additionally, an effective AM&E program will 
     provide important lessons learned that will be critical to 
     improving the effectiveness and efficiency of subsequent 
     security cooperation efforts. The conferees expect the 
     Department to allocate sufficient resourcing to accomplish 
     these objectives in fiscal year 2019 and in future budget 
     requests.
       Further, the amendment would limit the availability of 
     funds for activities under section 333 of title 10, United 
     States Code, until the Secretary of Defense submits a written 
     plan including a description of the activities planned for 
     fiscal year 2019 for the evaluation of security cooperation 
     programs across the security cooperation enterprise, 
     including through chapter 16 of title 10, United States Code, 
     the Afghanistan Security Forces Fund, the Counter-ISIL Fund, 
     the cooperative threat reduction program, and other security 
     cooperation authorities as appropriate; and a description of 
     the activities planned for fiscal year 2019 for the training, 
     support, and organization of the Department to effectively 
     carry out responsibilities under section 383 of title 10, 
     United States Code.
     Legal and policy review of advise, assist, and accompany 
         missions (sec. 1212)
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 1205) that 
     would require the Under Secretary of Defense for Policy and 
     the General Counsel of the Department of Defense, in 
     coordination with the appropriate combatant commands, not 
     later than 120 days after the date of enactment of this Act, 
     to submit to the congressional defense committees a report on 
     a review of the legal and policy frameworks associated with 
     advise, assist, and accompany missions by United States 
     military personnel.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes with an amendment that would require not 
     later than 120 days after the date of enactment of this Act 
     the Under Secretary of Defense for Policy, in coordination 
     with the General Counsel of the Department of Defense and the 
     commanders of the appropriate combatant commands, to conduct 
     a review of the legal and policy frameworks associated with 
     advise, assist, and accompany missions by United States 
     military personnel and submit to the Secretary of Defense a 
     report on the results of such review. The amendment would 
     also require that not later than 30 days after the date on 
     which the Secretary receives the required report, the 
     Secretary shall submit to the congressional defense 
     committees the report together with any comments by the 
     Secretary that amplify or clarify the report.
     Extension and modification of authority to support border 
         security operations of certain foreign countries (sec. 
         1213)
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 1204) that 
     would amend section 1226 of the National Defense 
     Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2016 (Public Law 114-92), 
     as amended, by authorizing the Secretary of Defense to 
     provide support on a reimbursable basis to the Government of 
     Oman and Government of Pakistan for the purposes of 
     supporting and enhancing efforts of the armed forces of Oman 
     and Pakistan to increase and sustain security along the 
     borders of Yemen and Afghanistan, respectively. The provision 
     would also require quarterly reports on the use of this 
     authority and would require the Secretary of Defense to 
     submit a report 15 days prior to the provision of support 
     under this authority to any country that has not previously 
     received with information and a certification regarding the 
     use of the authority. Finally, the provision would extend 
     this authority through December 31, 2021.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes.
     Framework for obtaining concurrence for participation in 
         activities of regional centers for security studies (sec. 
         1214)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1202) that would 
     amend section 342 of title 10, United States Code, to clarify 
     that travel, transportation, and subsistence expenses are 
     included among the costs of activities of the Regional 
     Centers eligible for waiver of reimbursement.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes with an amendment that would require not 
     later than 120 days after the date of enactment of this Act 
     the Secretary of Defense, with the concurrence of the 
     Secretary of State, to establish and submit to appropriate 
     congressional committees a Memorandum of Agreement or similar 
     arrangement setting forth a framework for the procedures 
     required between the Department of Defense and the Department 
     of State to obtain the concurrence of the Secretary of State, 
     as required by law or policy, to allow non-defense and non-
     governmental personnel of friendly foreign countries to 
     participate in activities of the Department of Defense 
     Regional Centers for Security Studies. The conferees expect 
     the framework to include elements that streamline procedures 
     for concurrence, delegate approval to the lowest practicable 
     level, require measures to issue concurrence decisions within 
     14 days unless there are extenuating circumstances, and 
     provide for procedures for rapid consideration of alternate 
     attendees.

        Subtitle B--Matters Relating to Afghanistan and Pakistan

     Extension of authority to transfer defense articles and 
         provide defense services to the military and security 
         forces of Afghanistan (sec. 1221)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1211) that would 
     extend for two years the authority to transfer defense 
     articles being drawn down in the Islamic Republic of 
     Afghanistan and the authority to provide defense services 
     regarding such transfers to the military and security forces 
     of Afghanistan.
       The Senate amendment contained a similar provision (sec. 
     1213) that would extend the authority to transfer defense 
     articles for one year.
       The Senate recedes.
     Extension and modification of reporting requirements for 
         special immigrant visas for Afghan allies program (sec. 
         1222)
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 1214) that 
     would renew a reporting

[[Page H7509]]

     requirement under the Afghan Allies Protection Act of 2009 to 
     assess the health of the Special Afghan Immigrant Visa (SIV) 
     application process and identify any delays in orderly visa 
     processing.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes.
       The conferees are concerned by reports that the SIV 
     application process continues to suffer from inadequate 
     interagency coordination which has resulted in undue delay, 
     needless stress on applicants, and a sizable drop in SIV 
     admissions this year.
       The conferees note the critical work performed by Afghan 
     partners in support of United States and coalition efforts 
     and the importance of sustaining the SIV program. In all 
     operations the military depends on robust and trustworthy 
     relationships with local partners. If the United States 
     wishes to achieve success in current and future operations 
     overseas, it must protect those who help enable that success. 
     Local partners in other potential conflict zones are watching 
     how the United States treats its networks in Afghanistan; the 
     policies and practices used there will influence confidence 
     and loyalties elsewhere when supporters are needed. As the 
     United States continues to protect its interests around the 
     world, it will need the assistance of willing partners. 
     Ensuring the SIV program is effectively managed and resourced 
     is one way to communicate America's steadfast commitment to 
     our partners.
     Afghanistan Security Forces Fund (sec. 1223)
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 1211) that 
     would extend the authority to continue certain established 
     provisions applicable to the Afghanistan Security Forces Fund 
     (ASFF), including the use of funds, transfer authority, and 
     acceptance of contributions to provide assistance to the 
     security forces of the Ministry of Defense and Ministry of 
     Interior of Afghanistan, including the provision of 
     equipment, supplies, services, training, and funds to develop 
     the capacity of Afghanistan's security ministries.
       The House bill contained a similar provision (sec. 1521).
       The House recedes with an amendment that requires the 
     Secretary of Defense to provide an assessment of the 
     Government of Afghanistan's ability to manage, employ, and 
     sustain equipment divested under the ASFF.
       The conferees note the emphasis in this provision placed on 
     the resources allocated to integrate women into the security 
     forces of Afghanistan. The conferees, however, do not 
     encourage the Department of Defense to allocate funding for 
     women and girls programming simply for the sake of meeting a 
     goal. The conferees are aware that previous funding has not 
     always been applied in the most effective and judicious 
     manner and encourage the Department to ensure going forward 
     that any funds spent on such efforts are valid and 
     verifiable.
       Additionally, the conferees are disappointed by recent 
     public decisions regarding a lack of transparency on basic 
     information such as kinetic strike data, ANDSF development, 
     retention, and casualty rates, and progress on achieving the 
     central tenants of the bilateral U.S.-Afghanistan Compact. 
     The restriction of information in this manner undermines 
     public confidence, hinders necessary congressional oversight, 
     and raises legitimate questions about the efficacy of current 
     U.S. efforts in Afghanistan.
     Extension and modification of Commanders' Emergency Response 
         Program (sec. 1224)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1213) that would 
     extend the Commanders' Emergency Response Program through 
     2020 and would modify the countries in which ex gratia 
     payments are authorized to include Somalia, Yemen, and Libya.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes with an amendment that would extend the 
     Commanders' Emergency Response Program through 2019 and would 
     modify the countries in which ex gratia payments are 
     authorized to include Somalia, Yemen, and Libya.
     Extension and modification of authority for reimbursement of 
         certain coalition nations for support provided to United 
         States military operations (sec. 1225)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1212) that would 
     extend through December 31, 2019, the authority to make 
     Coalition Support Fund (CSF) payments under section 1233 of 
     the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2008 
     (Public Law 110-181).
       The Senate amendment contained a similar provision (sec. 
     1212) that would extend the authority to make CSF payments 
     and authorize up to $350.0 million. It would also prohibit 
     Pakistan from receiving CSF reimbursements except under the 
     authority of a separate border security provision (sec. 
     1204).
       The House recedes.
       The conferees recognize that stability in the South Asia 
     region cannot be achieved without cooperation with the 
     Government of Pakistan. The conferees also recognize that 
     there are a number of areas in which U.S. and Pakistani 
     national security interests converge. Pakistan has long been 
     an important security partner and that has not changed. It is 
     important, however, to seek new opportunities for 
     coordination and cooperation that is transparent and mutually 
     beneficial.
  


         Subtitle C--Matters Relating to Syria, Iraq, and Iran

     Extension and modification of authority to provide assistance 
         to the vetted Syrian opposition (sec. 1231)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1222) that would 
     extend the authority under section 1209 of the Carl Levin and 
     Howard P. ``Buck'' McKeon National Defense Authorization Act 
     for Fiscal Year 2015 (Public Law 113--291), as amended, 
     through December 31, 2019. The provision would also limit the 
     reprogramming of any funds until thirty days after the 
     President submits to the congressional defense committees a 
     plan describing the objectives, activities, and nature of the 
     partner forces trained and equipped under this authority.
       The Senate amendment contained a similar provision (sec. 
     1222) that would extend the authority through 2019. It would 
     also limit the use of any funds authorized to be appropriated 
     for fiscal 2019 under this authority until the President 
     submits to the appropriate congressional committees the 
     report on the United States strategy in Syria as required by 
     section 1221 of the National Defense Authorization Act for 
     Fiscal Year 2018 (Public Law 115-91) and a report describing 
     the plans, processes, mechanisms, and accompanying governance 
     and stabilization activities for training the internal 
     security forces of the vetted Syrian opposition under this 
     authority. Finally, the Senate provision would limit the 
     obligation or expenditure of any funds under this authority 
     until the Secretary of Defense submits to the congressional 
     defense committees a written certification every 120 days 
     after the enactment of this Act on progress toward defeating 
     the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS) and efforts to 
     promote stabilization, equitable governance, and adherence to 
     United States standards for human rights and the rule of law 
     with respect to support under this authority.
       The House recedes with an amendment that would retain the 
     reprogramming requirement and replace the certification 
     requirement with a requirement for a quarterly report to be 
     submitted by the Secretary of Defense, in coordination with 
     the Secretary of State, to the appropriate congressional 
     committees on progress in the campaign against ISIS and in 
     stabilization, equitable governance, and other matters in 
     Syria.
       The conferees recognize the significant progress made by 
     coalition forces against ISIS, but remain deeply concerned by 
     the lack of clarity and conflicting messages from 
     administration officials on the United States' strategy in 
     Syria. The conferees urge the administration to provide the 
     information necessary for the Congress to adequately evaluate 
     the requirements for this authority and how it contributes to 
     the accomplishment of U.S. objectives in Syria.
     Syrian war crimes accountability (sec. 1232)
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 6203) that 
     would require the Secretary of State to submit a report on 
     war crimes, crimes against humanity, and genocide in Syria to 
     the appropriate congressional committees not later than 90 
     days after the date of the enactment of this Act. It would 
     also require another report not later than 180 days after the 
     Secretary of State determines that the violence in Syria has 
     ceased. The provision would direct the Secretary of State to 
     conduct a study and submit a report on transitional justice 
     in Syria and authorize technical assistance for the purposes 
     of ensuring accountability for war crimes, crimes against 
     humanity, and genocide perpetrated by all forces fighting on 
     the behalf of the regime of President Bashar al-Assad and all 
     non-state armed groups fighting in Syria from March 2011 
     forward. Additionally, the provision would direct the 
     Secretary of State, through the United States Permanent 
     Representative to the United Nations, to extend the mandate 
     of the Independent International Commission of Inquiry on the 
     Syrian Arab Republic until its work is complete.
       The House contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes with an amendment that would make several 
     technical and clarifying changes.
     Extension of authority to provide assistance to counter the 
         Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (sec. 1233)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1221) that would 
     extend the authority under section 1236 of the National 
     Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2015 (Public Law 
     113-291), as most recently amended by section 1222 of the 
     National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2018 
     (Public Law 115-91), by authorizing the Secretary of Defense, 
     in coordination with the Secretary of State, to provide 
     $850.0 million in assistance to the military and other 
     security forces of, or associated with, the Government of the 
     Republic of Iraq, through December 31, 2020. Additionally, 
     the House bill would express the sense of Congress on the 
     contributions of the Peshmerga forces of the Kurdistan Region 
     of Iraq in the campaign to defeat the Islamic State of Iraq 
     and Syria (ISIS). It would also require the Secretary of 
     Defense, in coordination with the Secretary of State, to 
     submit to the appropriate congressional committees and 
     leadership of the House of Representatives and the Senate a 
     quarterly progress report on the end-use of United States 
     provided equipment and the extent to which any organizations 
     associated with the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps have 
     been incorporated into the Iraqi military.
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 1221) that 
     would extend the authority through the end of 2020 while 
     limiting the

[[Page H7510]]

     obligation or expenditure of more than $450.0 million of 
     funds authorized for fiscal year 2019 until the report on the 
     United States strategy in Iraq required by the Joint 
     Explanatory Statement accompanying Conference Report 115-404 
     and a report on the planned use of funds and the purpose, 
     size, roles, and missions of United States forces in Iraq is 
     submitted to the appropriate congressional committees.
       The House recedes with an amendment that would retain the 
     sense of Congress on the contributions of the Peshmerga and 
     the quarterly progress report, along with several 
     clarifications.
     Limitation on assistance to the Government of Iraq (sec. 
         1234)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1230D) that 
     would limit the obligation or expenditure of funds authorized 
     to be appropriated for this Act for assistance to the 
     Ministry of the Interior of the Government of Iraq until the 
     Secretary of Defense and the Secretary of State jointly 
     certify to the appropriate congressional committees that such 
     funds will not be disbursed by the United States to any group 
     that is or is known to be affiliated with the Iranian 
     Revolutionary Guard Corps-Quds Force or other state sponsor 
     of terrorism.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes with an amendment that would remove the 
     reference to the Ministry of the Interior and expand the 
     prohibition to the Government of Iraq as a whole, along with 
     several technical and clarifying changes.
     Extension and modification of authority to support operations 
         and activities of the Office of Security Cooperation in 
         Iraq (sec. 1235)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1223) that would 
     amend section 1215 of the National Defense Authorization Act 
     for Fiscal Year 2012 (Public Law 112-81), as amended, by 
     extending the authority for the Office of Security 
     Cooperation in Iraq (OSC-I) for one year through fiscal year 
     2019.
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 1223) that 
     would extend the authority for OSC-I through fiscal year 
     2019. The provision would limit the obligation or expenditure 
     of more than 25 percent of funds authorized for OSC-I for 
     fiscal year 2019 until the United States strategy on Iraq 
     required by the Joint Explanatory Statement accompanying 
     Conference Report 115-404 and an additional report on the 
     activities, missions, and plan for the normalization of OSC-I 
     to conform to other offices of security cooperation are 
     delivered to the appropriate congressional committees.
       The House recedes with a clarifying amendment.
       The conferees note that an earlier transition plan 
     submitted by the Secretary of Defense pursuant to the Joint 
     Explanatory Statement accompanying the National Defense 
     Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2017 (Public Law 114-328) 
     and subsequent documentation related to OSC-I in the 
     President's Budget Request for Fiscal Year 2019 failed to 
     provide the level of detail required for Congress to 
     adequately consider this authority under the auspices of the 
     Department of Defense.
     Modification to annual report on the military power of Iran 
         (sec. 1236)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1228) that would 
     require the President to submit a report to the appropriate 
     congressional committees not later than 120 days after the 
     date of enactment of this Act, and annually thereafter for 
     five years, on cooperation between Iran and the Russian 
     Federation and the extent to which such cooperation affects 
     United States interests, particularly with respect to Syria. 
     The House bill contained an additional provision (sec. 1230E) 
     that would require the Secretary of State, in consultation 
     with the Director of National Intelligence, to submit to 
     Congress not later than 90 days after the date of the 
     enactment of this Act a report describing Iranian 
     expenditures in the previous calendar year on military and 
     terrorist activities outside the country.
       The Senate amendment contained a similar provision (sec. 
     1225) that would amend section 1245 of the National Defense 
     Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2010 (Public Law 111-84), 
     as amended, to require an assessment of military cooperation 
     and collaboration on the development of nuclear, biological, 
     chemical, and advanced conventional weapons, weapons systems, 
     and delivery vehicles between Iran and the Russian Federation 
     and additional information on the Government of Iran's 
     support to the Houthis.
       The House recedes.
       The conferees note that the Department of Defense's 
     congressionally mandated annual report on the military power 
     of Iran requires extensive reporting requirements on Iranian 
     military activity. Therefore, the conferees encourage the 
     Secretary of Defense to include detailed information in 
     future reports on Russian and Iranian cooperation, 
     particularly with respect to cooperation in Syria, assistance 
     to the Assad regime, the establishment of forward operating 
     bases, the deployment of air defense systems, and assistance 
     to the Syrian chemical weapons program. The conferees also 
     encourage the Secretary to include descriptions of any 
     Russian and Iranian cooperation on: Iran's space program, 
     including whether such cooperation strengthens Iran's 
     ballistic missile program; intelligence sharing; naval 
     cooperation; nuclear cooperation; the development and 
     employment of hybrid warfare methods; and the activities of 
     Iranian proxy forces such as Hezbollah.
     Strategy to counter destabilizing activities of Iran (sec. 
         1237)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1225) that would 
     authorize the Secretary of Defense, with the concurrence of 
     the Secretary of State, to develop and implement a strategy 
     with foreign partners to counter the destabilizing activities 
     of Iran. Furthermore, it would require the Secretary of 
     Defense, in consultation with the Secretary of State, to 
     submit a report to the appropriate congressional committees 
     describing the strategy and actions to enhance multilateral 
     coordination.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes with an amendment that would make a 
     number of technical and clarifying changes.
       The conferees note the importance of multilateral 
     cooperation in the Middle East and encourage the Secretary of 
     Defense to enhance cooperation and military-to-military 
     engagement within multilateral fora when appropriate and 
     practicable.

         Subtitle D--Matters Relating to the Russian Federation

     Prohibition on availability of funds relating to sovereignty 
         of the Russian Federation over Crimea (sec. 1241)
       The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 1231) that 
     would extend by 1 year the prohibition imposed by section 
     1245 of the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal 
     Year 2016 (Public Law 114-92),as amended by section 1232 of 
     the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2018 
     (Public Law 115-91). This section would prohibit the use of 
     fiscal year 2019 funds to implement any activity that 
     recognizes the sovereignty of the Russian Federation over 
     Crimea. This section would also allow the Secretary of 
     Defense, in concurrence with the Secretary of State, to waive 
     the prohibition if the Secretary determines that doing so 
     would be in the national security interest of the United 
     States and submits a notification to the Committees on Armed 
     Services of the Senate and the House of Representatives, the 
     Committee on Foreign Relations of the Senate, and the 
     Committee on Foreign Affairs of the House of Representatives.
       The Senate amendment contained a similar provision (sec. 
     1232) that would prohibit funds authorized to be appropriated 
     or made available by this Act for fiscal year 2019 for the 
     Department of Defense to implement any activity that 
     recognizes the sovereignty of the Russian Federation over 
     Crimea.
       The Senate recedes with an amendment that would require the 
     Secretary of Defense, with the concurrence with Secretary of 
     State, to provide a justification for seeking any waiver to 
     the prohibition.
     Limitation on availability of funds relating to 
         implementation of the Open Skies Treaty (sec. 1242)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1232) that would 
     prohibit obligation or expenditure of certain funds for 
     fiscal year 2019 to modify any U.S. aircraft for the purposes 
     of implementing the Open Skies Treaty until the President 
     certifies that the United States has imposed legal 
     countermeasures on the Russian Federation for its violation 
     of that treaty. The provision would also prohibit the 
     obligation or expenditure of any funds for fiscal year 2019 
     to vote to approve any implementing decision of the Open 
     Skies Consultative Commission (OSCC) (pursuant to Article X 
     of the treaty) that certifies infra-red or synthetic aperture 
     radar sensors for any state party until a series of reports 
     and certifications are met regarding U.S. Open Skies Treaty 
     policy and Russian aggression, malign influence, and treaty 
     violations. The provision would allow the President to waive 
     these requirements, without delegation, if he determines that 
     the waiver is in the interest of the national security of the 
     United States and that the Russian Federation has taken clear 
     and verifiable action to return to full and complete 
     compliance with the treaty. Finally, the provision would also 
     require a report from the Secretary of Defense on the state 
     of the OC-135B fleet, including a recommendation on a 
     prospective retirement date.
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 1648) that 
     would prohibit the obligation or expenditure of any funds for 
     fiscal year 2019 for research, development, test, and 
     engineering, Air Force, or aircraft procurement, Air Force, 
     for the digital visual imaging system to modify U.S. aircraft 
     for the purpose of implementing the Open Skies Treaty until 
     the President and the Secretary of Defense submit the two 
     certifications described in section 1235(b) of the National 
     Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2018 (Public Law 
     115-91).
       The Senate recedes with amendments that would modify the 
     reporting requirements before a vote to approve certification 
     of sensors in the OSCC; remove certification requirements 
     related to Russian aggression and malign influence that are 
     unrelated to treaty violations; modify the waiver 
     requirements such that the President would have to certify 
     that the Russian Federation has taken clear and verifiable 
     action to return to compliance with the treaty; allow the 
     President to delegate the waiver authority to the Secretary 
     of State, in consultation with the Secretary of Defense and 
     Director of National Intelligence; require these officials to

[[Page H7511]]

     submit a report to the appropriate congressional committees 
     containing their views at least 30 days before exercising the 
     waiver; and strike the reporting requirement related to the 
     OC-135B fleet.
       The conferees direct the Secretary of Defense, in 
     consultation with the Secretary of the Air Force, to submit a 
     report to the congressional defense committees no later than 
     January 31, 2019, on the Department of the Air Force's RC-
     135, WC-135, TC-135, and OC-135 aircraft fleets. The report 
     should address issues for each aircraft fleet regarding 
     airworthiness, safety of flight, aircraft availability and 
     mission capability rates, sustainment, maintenance, and 
     reliability. The report should also include a detailed 
     description of the Secretary's acquisition strategy for 
     recapitalizing each platform's capabilities, as well as the 
     forecasted service-life expectancy dates for each variant of 
     C-135 aircraft. In determining service-life expectancy dates, 
     the Secretary should consider separately the structural 
     integrity of the basic aircraft and the relevance and 
     maintainability of the onboard mission systems to meet 
     existing and evolving intelligence, surveillance, and 
     reconnaissance requirements.
     Determination required regarding material breach of INF 
         Treaty by the Russian Federation (sec. 1243)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1239) that would 
     provide that, unless the President certifies to the specified 
     congressional committees that the Russian Federation has 
     returned to full and verifiable compliance with the 
     Intermediate-Range Nuclear Forces (INF) Treaty within 1 year 
     of the date of the enactment of this Act, the prohibitions 
     set forth in Article VI of the treaty would no longer be 
     binding upon the United States as a matter of U.S. law.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes with an amendment that would instead 
     require the President to submit to the appropriate 
     congressional committees no later than January 15, 2019, a 
     determination whether the Russian Federation is in material 
     breach of its obligations under the INF Treaty, and if the 
     prohibitions set forth in Article VI of the INF Treaty remain 
     binding on the United States as a matter of U.S. law.
     Comprehensive response to the Russian Federation's material 
         breach of the INF Treaty (sec. 1244)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1233) that would 
     make a series of findings regarding the Russian Federation's 
     violation of the Intermediate-Range Nuclear Forces (INF) 
     Treaty and make a statement of policy that such violations 
     constitute material breach of the treaty and therefore the 
     United States is legally entitled to suspend the operation of 
     the treaty for so long as Russia remains in material breach. 
     The provision would also prohibit the obligation or 
     expenditure of 25 percent of funds authorized to be 
     appropriated or otherwise made available to the Department of 
     Defense for fiscal year 2019 to provide support services 
     (other than those required for senior leader communications) 
     to the Executive Office of the President until the President 
     certifies that each requirement of section 1290 of the 
     National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2017 
     (Public Law 114-328) has been implemented and the President 
     has submitted the report required by section 1244(c) of the 
     National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2018 
     (Public Law 115-91).
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes with amendments that would remove the 
     findings; change the statement of policy to a sense of the 
     Congress; make a technical amendment; and remove the 
     limitation on funding.
     Report on implementation of the New START Treaty (sec. 1245)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1240) that would 
     prohibit the expenditure of funds for the Department of 
     Defense to extend the implementation of the New Strategic 
     Arms Reduction Treaty (New START) until the President 
     certifies that the President has raised the issue of certain 
     new Russian nuclear weapons systems under Article V of New 
     START and that the Russian Federation has responded in 
     writing to the United States as to whether it will agree to 
     declare such nuclear weapons systems pursuant to the treaty. 
     Under the provision, the President would be required to 
     notify the specified congressional committees on whether the 
     Russian position threatens the viability of New START or 
     requires a political, economic, or military response on the 
     part of the United States.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes with an amendment that would remove the 
     limitation on funds and modify the requirement to a report on 
     whether the President has raised the issue of the covered 
     Russian systems with the Russian Federation under Article V 
     of New START or otherwise, and whether the government of the 
     Russian Federation has responded as to whether it will agree 
     to declare the covered Russian systems pursuant to the 
     treaty. The provision would also require the President to 
     notify the appropriate congressional committees as to whether 
     the Russian response threatens the viability of New START; 
     and to submit to the congressional defense committees a 
     report assessing the extent to which the Department of 
     Defense and National Nuclear Security Administration have met 
     the commitments regarding nuclear modernization and 
     infrastructure recapitalization made in the resolution of 
     ratification to accompany New START.
     Modification and extension of Ukraine Security Assistance 
         Initiative (sec. 1246)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1234) that would 
     extend by 2 years, section 1250 of the National Defense 
     Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2016 (Public Law 114-92), 
     most recently amended by section 1234 of the National Defense 
     Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2018 (Public Law 115-91), 
     to authorize the Secretary of Defense to provide security 
     assistance and intelligence support to the Government of 
     Ukraine. The provision would authorize $250.0 million to 
     carry out this authority in fiscal year 2019, of which $50.0 
     million would be available only for lethal assistance.
       The Senate amendment contained a similar provision (sec. 
     1233) that would extend through December 31, 2021 the 
     authority under section 1250 of the National Defense 
     Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2016 (Public Law 114-92) as 
     amended by section 1234 of the National Defense Authorization 
     Act for Fiscal Year 2018 (Public Law 115-91) for the 
     Secretary of Defense, in coordination with the Secretary of 
     State, to provide security assistance, including defensive 
     lethal assistance, and intelligence support to military and 
     other security forces of the Government of Ukraine. The 
     provision would authorize the use of up to $200.0 million in 
     fiscal year 2019 to provide security assistance to Ukraine.
       The Senate recedes with an amendment that would broaden the 
     authority to provide training required to maintain and employ 
     systems and capabilities provided through the Ukraine 
     Security Assistance Initiative. The amendment would also make 
     certain adjustments to the certification by the Secretary of 
     Defense related to actions of the Government of Ukraine to 
     make substantial defense institutional reforms, including the 
     protection of proprietary or sensitive technologies as such 
     technologies relate to foreign military sales or transfers.
     Extension of limitation on military cooperation between the 
         United States and the Russian Federation (sec. 1247)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1237) that would 
     limit the use of fiscal year 2019 funds for bilateral 
     military-to-military cooperation between the Government of 
     the United States and the Russian Federation until the 
     Secretary of Defense, in coordination with the Secretary of 
     State, provides a certification to appropriate congressional 
     committees relating to certain actions by Russia. The 
     provision would also allow the Secretary of Defense to waive 
     the limitation under certain conditions.
       The Senate amendment contained a similar provision (sec. 
     1231) that would also clarify that the limitation shall not 
     be construed to limit bilateral military-to-military dialogue 
     between the United States and the Russian Federation for the 
     purposes of reducing the risk of conflict.
       The House recedes.
     Sense of Congress on enhancing deterrence against Russian 
         aggression in Europe (sec. 1248)
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 1235) that 
     would express the sense of the Senate concerning the need for 
     an integrated approach to strengthening the defense of allies 
     and partners in Europe as a part of a broader strategy backed 
     by all elements of United States power to deter and, if 
     necessary, defeat aggression by the Russian Federation.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes with an amendment that would state that 
     in order to protect the security of the United States and 
     fulfill the ironclad commitment of the United States to its 
     obligations under the North Atlantic Treaty, it is the policy 
     of the United States to pursue, in full coordination with the 
     North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO), an integrated 
     approach to strengthening the defense of allies and partners 
     in Europe as part of a broader, long-term strategy backed by 
     all elements of United States national power to deter and, if 
     necessary, defeat Russian aggression. The amendment would 
     also make a number of revisions related to specific actions 
     the Secretary of Defense should take or consider in 
     furtherance of such policy.
       The conferees believe in that in order to strengthen the 
     defense of allies and partners in Europe and deter Russian 
     aggression, the Secretary of Defense, in coordination with 
     the Secretary of State and in consultation with the 
     Commander, United States European Command, should consider 
     specific steps to improve United States combat capability and 
     capacity in Europe, increase United States forward presence 
     in Europe, maintain robust security assistance for allies and 
     partners in Europe, promote reforms within NATO, and enhance 
     multilateral security cooperation among United States allies 
     and partners, including between NATO and the European Union.

        Subtitle E--Matters Relating to the Indo-Pacific Region

     Name of United States Indo-Pacific Command (sec. 1251)

       The Senate recedes with an amendment that would change the 
     name of ``United States Pacific Command'' to ``United States 
     Indo-Pacific Command'' effective immediately.
       The conferees note that changing the name of ``United 
     States Pacific Command'' to ``United States Indo-Pacific 
     Command'' may involve some necessary administrative 
     expenditures. The conferees urge the Department of Defense to 
     be prudent and minimize such costs to the extent practicable.

     certifies to the appropriate committees of Congress that it 
     is important for increasing maritime security and maritime 
     domain awareness. The provision would also extend the 
     authority by 3 years from September 30, 2020, to September 
     30, 2023.

     the United States to meet the objectives and activities 
     outlined in the Indo-Pacific Stability Initiative to include 
     resource requirements and additional authorities needed 
     through fiscal year 2024 to address such challenges. The

     materials in support of the President's budget request for 
     fiscal year 2020.
       The Senate amendment contained a similar provision (sec. 
     1244) that would amend section 1251 of the National Defense 
     Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2018 (Public Law 115-91) by 
     redesignating the ``Indo-Asia-Pacific Stability Initiative'' 
     as the ``Indo-Pacific Stability Initiative'' and making 
     modifications to emphasize the initiative's alignment with 
     the National Defense Strategy and its focus on minimizing the 
     risk of executing the contingency plans of the Department of 
     Defense. The provision would also require the Secretary of 
     Defense, in consultation with the Commander, United States 
     Pacific Command, to submit a future years plan on activities 
     and resources of the initiative no later than March 1, 2019.

     necessary for the successful implementation of the National 
     Defense Strategy.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes with an amendment that would require the 
     assessment to address the geopolitical conditions in the 
     Indo-Pacific region, including any change in economic and

     States military requirements for forward defense, extensive 
     forward basing, and alliance and partnership formation and

       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1253) that would 
     direct the Secretary of Defense to conduct a comprehensive 
     assessment, in consultation with appropriate counterparts of 
     Taiwan, on ways to enhance and reform Taiwan's military 
     forces, particularly Taiwan's reserve forces. The provision 
     would also require that the assessment include 
     recommendations to strengthen bilateral cooperation and 
     improve Taiwan's self-defense capabilities. The provision 
     would require the Secretary of Defense, in consultation with 
     the Secretary of State, to submit a report on the assessment

     committees that China has ceased all land reclamation 
     activities in the South China Sea, removed all weapons from 
     its land reclamation sites, and established a consistent 4-
     year track record of taking actions toward stabilizing the 
     region.

     countries, including diplomacy and political coercion, 
     information operations, and economic pressure, including 
     predatory lending practices, to support its security and

     element.
     United States strategy on China (sec. 1261)

     Report on military and coercive activities of the People's 
         Republic of China in South China Sea (sec. 1262)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1261) that would 
     require Secretary of Defense, in consultation with the 
     Director of National Intelligence and the Secretary of State, 
     to submit a report to appropriate congressional committees on 
     a quarterly basis describing China's activities in the Indo-
     Pacific region, and to disseminate the report to regional 
     allies and partners and provide public notification, as 
     appropriate. The provision would require that the 
     dissemination and availability of the report and public 
     notification be made in a manner consistent with national 
     security and the protection of classified national security 
     information.
       The Senate amendment contained a similar provision (sec. 
     1251) that would require the Secretary of Defense, in 
     coordination with the Secretary of State, to submit to the 
     congressional defense committees and release to the public, a 
     report on the military and coercive activities of China in 
     the South China Sea in connection with such activity 
     immediately after the commencement of any significant 
     reclamation or militarization activity by the People's 
     Republic of China in the South China Sea, including any 
     significant military deployment or operation or 
     infrastructure construction.
       The House recedes with an amendment that would clarify that 
     the required report shall be submitted to the congressional 
     defense committees immediately after the commencement of any 
     significant reclamation, assertion of an excessive 
     territorial claim, or military activity by the People's 
     Republic of China in the South China Sea.
       The conferees are concerned that sufficient information has 
     not been made publicly available in a timely fashion 
     regarding China's reclamation and militarization activities 
     in the South China Sea. Moreover, the conferees recognize 
     that China has engaged in provocative military activities 
     elsewhere throughout the Indo-Pacific Region, including the 
     East China Sea, the Taiwan Strait, and the Indian Ocean. The 
     conferees urge the Secretary of Defense to give full 
     consideration to the strategic and public interest in 
     selective declassification of China's activities in the South 
     China Sea and elsewhere in the Indo-Pacific region.
     Requirement for critical languages and expertise in Chinese, 
         Korean, Russian, Farsi, and Arabic (sec. 1263)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1258) that would 
     require the Secretary of Defense to submit to the 
     congressional defense committees, not later than 180 days 
     after the date of the enactment of this Act, a plan to 
     address shortfalls in Chinese, Korean, and Russian language 
     and expertise across the Department of Defense. The provision 
     would require the Secretary of Defense to provide a near-term 
     and long-term plan for how the Department is building 
     competency in these critical areas.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes with an amendment that would require the 
     Department of Defense to address Arabic and Farsi language 
     and expertise in the required plan.
     Limitation on use of funds to reduce the total number of 
         members of the Armed Forces serving on active duty who 
         are deployed to the Republic of Korea (sec. 1264)
       The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 1263) that 
     would limit the use of funds authorized to be appropriated by 
     this Act to reduce the number of members of the Armed Forces 
     serving on Active Duty in the Republic of Korea below 22,000 
     unless the Secretary of Defense provides a specified 
     certification.
       The Senate amendment contained a similar provision (sec. 
     1249) that would express the sense of the Senate regarding 
     the alliance between the United States and the Republic of 
     Korea, the importance of United States military forces on the 
     Korean Peninsula for safeguarding peace and stability in the 
     Indo-Pacific region, and other matters.
       The Senate recedes with an amendment that would limit the 
     use of funds authorized to be appropriated by this Act to 
     reduce the number of members of the Armed Forces serving on 
     Active Duty in the Republic of Korea below 22,000 unless the 
     Secretary of Defense first provides certifies that (1) such a 
     reduction is in the national security interest of the United 
     States and will not significantly undermine the security of 
     United States allies in the region; and (2) the Secretary has 
     appropriately consulted with allies of the United States, 
     including the Republic of Korea and Japan, regarding such a 
     reduction.
       The conferees recognize that United States military forces 
     deployed on the Korean Peninsula remain vital to deterring, 
     and if necessary, defeating aggression by the Democratic 
     People's Republic of Korea, which continues to threaten the 
     national security interests of the United States and the 
     peace and stability of the Indo-Pacific region through both 
     its conventional forces and weapons of mass destruction. 
     While the conferees support diplomatic efforts to achieve the 
     complete, verifiable, and irreversible denuclearization of 
     the Democratic People's Republic of Korea, the conferees 
     believe the significant removal of United States military 
     forces from the Korean Peninsula is a non-negotiable item in 
     such negotiations.
     Reports on nuclear capabilities of the Democratic People's 
         Republic of Korea (sec. 1265)
       The Senate amendment contained the provision (sec. 1255) 
     that would require, not later than 60 days after the 
     enactment of this Act, the Secretary of Defense, in 
     coordination with the Director of National Intelligence, to 
     submit to the appropriate committees a report on the status 
     of the nuclear program of the Democratic People's Republic of 
     Korea (DPRK) to establish a baseline of progress for 
     negotiations with respect to denuclearization. The provision 
     would require, in the case of an agreement between the United 
     States and the Democratic People's Republic of Korea, the 
     Secretary of Defense to submit written updates and 
     verification assessments to the required report.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes with an amendment would require that the 
     Secretary of Defense also coordinate with the Secretary of 
     State and Secretary of Energy on the required reports. The 
     amendment would clarify that the updates to the baseline 
     report and the verification assessment shall only be required 
     in the event of an interim or final agreement between the 
     United States and the DPRK with respect to the 
     denuclearization of the DPRK that includes a commitment by 
     the DPRK to (1) reduce the nuclear arsenal of the DPRK or (2) 
     to otherwise discontinue, reduce, or suspend the nuclear 
     program of the DPRK. The amendment would also add a reporting 
     requirement related to other weapons of mass destruction, 
     including chemical and biological weapons, of the DPRK.
     Modification of report required under enhancing defense and 
         security cooperation with India (sec. 1266)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1259) that would 
     amend subsection (a)(2) of section 1292 of the National 
     Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2017 (114-328) by 
     adding an additional reporting requirement. The new reporting 
     requirement would include a description of the progress on 
     enabling agreements between the United States and the 
     Republic of India, any limitations that hinder or slow 
     progress, measures to improve interoperability, and actions 
     India is taking, or the Secretary of Defense or the Secretary 
     of State believe India should take, to advance the 
     relationship with the United States. The House bill also 
     contained a provision (sec. 1264) that would amend section 
     1292 of the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal 
     Year 2017 (Public Law 114-328) by including a reporting 
     requirement to develop closer defense cooperation with India 
     on matters relating to missile defense.
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 1247) that 
     would express the sense of the Senate that the United States 
     should strengthen and enhance its major defense partnership 
     with India and work toward mutual security objectives.
       The Senate recedes with amendment that would amend section 
     1259 of the House bill to require the Secretary of Defense 
     and Secretary of State to include a forward-looking strategy 
     and specific benchmarks for measurable progress toward 
     enhancing United States defense cooperation with India and 
     India's status as a major defense partner. The provision 
     would also strike section 1264 of the House bill and section 
     1247 of the Senate amendment.
       The conferees believe that the United States should 
     strengthen and enhance its major defense partnership with 
     India and such a partnership should enable strategic, 
     operational, and tactical coordination between our militaries 
     and be jointly developed between the countries. The conferees 
     also believe that the United States should work toward mutual 
     security objectives by: (1) expanding engagement in 
     multilateral frameworks, including the Quadrilateral Dialogue 
     between the United States, India, Japan, and Australia, to 
     promote regional security and defend shared values and common 
     interests in the rules-based order; (2) exploring additional 
     steps to implement the ``major defense partner'' designation 
     to better facilitate military interoperability, information 
     sharing, and appropriate technology transfers; (3) pursuing 
     strategic initiatives to help develop India's defense 
     capabilities, including maritime security capabilities; (4) 
     improving cooperation on and coordination of humanitarian and 
     disaster relief responses; (5) conducting additional joint 
     exercises with India in the Persian Gulf, the Indian Ocean 
     region, and the Western Pacific; and (6) furthering 
     cooperative efforts to promote security and stability in 
     Afghanistan.

     gaps and mutually benefit and strengthen the security of the 
     United States and Israel; (3) an assessment of the projected

     jointly pursuant to the authority granted. The amendment 
     would require that the report be submitted to the 
     congressional defense committees, the Committee on Foreign 
     Relations of the Senate, and the Committee on Foreign Affairs 
     of the House of Representatives.
     Enhancement of U.S.-Israel defense cooperation (sec. 1273)
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 1265) that 
     would amend section 12001(d) of the Department of Defense 
     Appropriations Act, 2005 (Public Law 108-287) to extend the 
     authority for the War Reserves Stockpile Ammunition-Israel

     authorize the President, acting through the Secretary of 
     State and the Secretary of Defense, to conduct a joint 
     assessment of the quantity of precision guided munitions 
     necessary for Israel to counter regional threats. The 
     provision would also amend the Bob Stump National Defense 
     Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2003 (Public Law 107-314) 
     to require the Secretary of Defense to prescribe procedures 
     for the rapid acquisition and deployment of supplies and 
     associated support services urgently needed to support 
     production of precision guided munitions.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.

     guided munitions assessed and whether such inventory meets 
     the United States total munitions requirement. The amendment 
     would also strike the modified requirement for the 
     establishment and prescription of procedures related to rapid 
     acquisition of precision guided munitions.
     Review to determine whether the Armed Forces or coalition 
         partners of the United States violated Federal law or 
         Department of Defense policy while conducting operations 
         in Yemen (sec. 1274)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1299K) that 
     would direct the Secretary of Defense to conduct an 
     investigation to determine if coalition partners of the 
     United States or members of the Armed Forces or intelligence 
     personnel violated Federal law, the laws of armed conflict, 
     or Department of Defense policy while conducting operations 
     in Yemen.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes with an amendment that would require a 
     review of the United States Armed Forces and coalition 
     partners conducting operations in Yemen along with a report 
     on the Department of Defense's policies related to the 
     detention operations of allies and partners whose military 
     operations the United States supports.
  

     Report on United States Government security cooperation and 
         assistance programs with Mexico (sec. 1275)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1273) that would 
     require the President to submit to the appropriate 
     congressional committees not later than July 1, 2019, a 
     report on United States police training and equipping 
     programs with the Government of Mexico.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes with an amendment that would require the 
     report to focus on the broader United States 
     security cooperation and security assistance enterprise in 
     Mexico, including programs related to the Mexican Armed 
     Forces, and would require the Secretary of Defense and 
     Secretary of State to deliver the report, among other 
     technical, clarifying changes.
     Report on Department of Defense missions, operations, and 
         activities in Niger (sec. 1276)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1299F) that 
     would require, not later than 180 days after the date of the 
     enactment of this Act, the Secretary of Defense, in 
     consultation as appropriate with the Secretary of State, to 
     submit to the congressional defense committees, the Committee 
     on Foreign Relations of the Senate, and the Committee on 
     Foreign Affairs of the House of Representatives a report on 
     the missions, operations, and activities of the Department in 
     Niger and the broader region.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes with an amendment that would require, 
     not later than 180 days after the date of enactment of this 
     Act, the Secretary of Defense, in consultation as appropriate 
     with the Secretary of State, to submit to the congressional 
     defense committees, the Committee on Foreign Relations of the 
     Senate, and the Committee on Foreign Affairs of the House of 
     Representatives a report on the missions, operations, and 
     activities of the Department in Niger.
     Report on the security relationship between the United States 
         and the Republic of Cyprus (sec. 1277)
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 6206) that 
     would require a report on the current impact of the United 
     States arms embargo on the Republic of Cyprus.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes with an amendment that would broaden the 
     required report to address the security relationship between 
     the United States and the Republic of Cyprus.
     Sense of Congress detention of United States citizens by the 
         Government of the Republic of Turkey (sec. 1278)
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 1269) that 
     would make a series of findings, including concerning the 
     Government of the Republic of Turkey's unlawful and wrongful 
     detention of Andrew Brunson, a United States citizen. The 
     provision would also prohibit the transfer of title for any 
     F-35 aircraft to the Government of the Republic of Turkey 
     until such time as the Secretary of Defense submits to the 
     appropriate congressional committees a plan to remove the 
     Government of the Republic of Turkey from participation in 
     the F-35 program, to include industrial and military aspects 
     of the program.
       The Senate amendment also contained a related provision 
     (sec. 6204) that would clarify that the limitation on the 
     transfer of F-35 aircraft to Turkey in section 1269 of the 
     Senate amendment shall apply to the transfer or delivery of 
     that aircraft to Turkey rather than to the transfer of title 
     for that aircraft to Turkey.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes with an amendment that would strike 
     section 6204 of the Senate amendment, strike elements of the 
     section 1269 of the Senate amendment related to the F-35 
     program, and express the sense of the Congress that (1) the 
     Government of the Republic of Turkey continues to unlawfully 
     and wrongfully detain United States citizens, including 
     Andrew Brunson and Serkan Golge, as well as staff of United 
     States missions in Turkey; and (2) consistent with its 
     obligations under the North Atlantic Treaty, which commits 
     NATO allies to safeguard ``the principles of democracy, 
     individual liberty and the rule of law,'' the Government of 
     the Republic of Turkey should immediately release all United 
     States citizens that have been wrongfully detained and 
     resolve such cases in a timely, fair, and transparent manner.
       The conferees note that an assessment of a significant 
     change in Turkish participation in the F-35 program, 
     including a reduction or elimination of such participation, 
     as well as a limitation on the delivery of F-35 aircraft to 
     the Republic of Turkey, are addressed elsewhere in this 
     report.
     Technical amendments related to NATO Support and Procurement 
         Organization and related NATO agreements (sec. 1279)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1278) that would 
     amend section 2350d of title 10, United States Code, to 
     update the statutory reference to reflect a reorganization of 
     the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) with respect to 
     the elimination of the NATO Support Organization and the 
     establishment of the NATO Support and Procurement 
     Organization. The provision would also amend section 2350d to 
     reflect that NATO supply and logistics support activities may 
     extend to NATO operations outside of Europe.
       The Senate amendment contained a similar provision (sec. 
     1236).
       The House recedes.
     Report on permanent stationing of United States forces in the 
         Republic of Poland (sec. 1280)
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 1254) that 
     would require the Secretary of Defense, in coordination with

[[Page H7515]]

     Secretary of State, to submit to the congressional defense 
     committees a report on the feasibility and advisability of 
     permanently stationing United States forces in the Republic 
     of Poland. Specifically, the provision would require an 
     assessment of the types of permanently stationed United 
     States forces in Poland required to deter aggression by the 
     Russian Federation and execute Department of Defense 
     contingency plans, including combat enabler units. The 
     provision would also require a detailed assessment of the 
     feasibility and advisability of permanently stationing a 
     United States Army brigade combat team in Poland.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes.
     Report on strengthening NATO cyber defense (sec. 1281)
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 6603) that 
     would express the sense of the Senate regarding Department of 
     Defense cyber cooperation with the North Atlantic Treaty 
     Organization (NATO) and would require the Secretary of 
     Defense to submit to the congressional defense committees a 
     report detailing the Department's efforts to enhance the 
     United States' leadership in and collaboration with NATO in 
     the development of a comprehensive, cross-domain strategy to 
     build cyber-defense capacity and deter cyber attacks among 
     member countries.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes with an amendment that would strike the 
     sense of the Senate.
       The conferees believe that the Department of Defense should 
     continue to cooperate with NATO and key NATO allies in order 
     to promote the common defense in the cyberspace domain as 
     well as to deter cyberattacks.
     Report on status of the United States relationship with the 
         Republic of Turkey (sec. 1282)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1271) that would 
     require the Secretary of Defense, in consultation with the 
     Secretary of State, to submit a report on the U.S.-Turkish 
     relationship to the congressional defense committees, the 
     Committee on Foreign Relations of the Senate and the 
     Committee on Foreign Affairs of the House of Representatives, 
     not later than 60 days after the date of the enactment of 
     this Act. The provision would also prohibit any action to 
     execute delivery of a foreign military sale for major defense 
     equipment under section 36 of the Arms Export Control Act (22 
     U.S.C. 2761) to the Republic of Turkey until the required 
     report is delivered to the specified congressional 
     committees.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes with an amendment that would require the 
     report on the U.S.-Turkish relationship to be delivered not 
     later than 90 days after the enactment of this Act. The 
     amendment would add to the matters to be included in the 
     required report an assessment of the operational and 
     counterintelligence risks posed by the deployment of the S-
     400 air and missile defense system in the Republic of Turkey 
     to the F-35 Lightning II Joint Strike aircraft and the steps 
     required to mitigate those risks, if possible. The amendment 
     would also add an assessment of the Republic of Turkey's 
     participation in the F-35 program, including a description of 
     industrial participation of Turkish industry in the 
     manufacturing and assembly of the F-35 program; an assessment 
     of tooling and other manufacturing materials held by Turkish 
     industry; and an assessment of the impacts of a significant 
     change in participation by the Republic of Turkey in the F-35 
     program and the steps that would be required to mitigate 
     negative impacts of such a change on the United States and 
     other international program partners. The amendment would 
     prohibit the Department of Defense from delivering any F-35 
     aircraft to the Republic of Turkey until such time as the 
     required report has been submitted.
       The conferees recognize Turkey is an important 
     international partner in the F-35 program, and that any 
     significant change in Turkish participation could have 
     substantial impacts on the program. However, Turkey's 
     expressed intention to purchase the S-400 air and missile 
     defense system from Russia raises serious concerns regarding 
     Turkey's participation in the F-35 program. Moreover, such a 
     purchase would have significant ramifications for the broader 
     U.S.-Turkey relationship and defense cooperation, including 
     the possibility of sanctions. Therefore, the conferees 
     believe the Department of Defense should be prepared for all 
     potential outcomes that would result if Turkey completes a 
     purchase of the S-400 by conducting the assessment required 
     of a significant change in Turkish participation in the F-35 
     program, including a reduction or elimination of such 
     participation.
  

     Sense of the Congress concerning military-to-military 
         dialogues (sec. 1283)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1279) that would 
     express the sense of Congress regarding the parameters that 
     lead to successful military-to-military dialogues.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes.
     Modifications to Global Engagement Center (sec. 1284)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1280) that would 
     modify section 1287 of the National Defense Authorization Act 
     for Fiscal Year 2017 (Public Law 114-328) relating to the 
     Global Engagement Center (GEC).
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 1262) that 
     would extend for one year the transfer authority contained in 
     section 1287(e)(1) of the National Defense Authorization Act 
     for Fiscal Year 2017 relating to the GEC, and clarify the 
     role, responsibilities and authorities of the GEC.
       The Senate recedes with a clarifying amendment.
       The conferees strongly support the mission of the GEC to 
     counter false and misleading messaging by both state and non-
     state adversaries and note the importance of integrating 
     military and nonmilitary tools of statecraft to address these 
     challenges. The conferees believe continuation of the 
     transfer authority provided by this provision helps to 
     facilitate such a whole-of-government approach.
       The conferees note that the Department of Defense (DOD) and 
     the Department of State (DOS) signed a memorandum of 
     understanding on February 26, 2018, to facilitate the 
     transfer of $40.0 million for the purposes of countering 
     propaganda and disinformation from foreign nations, more than 
     a year after such transfers were authorized by the National 
     Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2017 and after the 
     Intelligence Community publicly reported Russian efforts to 
     influence the 2016 elections. The conferees have significant 
     concern about delayed action on these issues in the face of a 
     significant and growing threat from Russia. The conferees 
     strongly encourage DOD and DOS to fully utilize the 
     authorities that have been provided to more aggressively 
     counter propaganda by Russia and other state and non-state 
     actors, and urge the Department to be more expeditious in the 
     transfer of funds to the GEC for future projects.
     Sense of Congress on countering hybrid threats and malign 
         influence (sec. 1285)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1297) that would 
     express the sense of the Congress that the United States 
     should work with its partners and allies to build resilience 
     against Russian malign influence operations.
       The Senate amendment contained a similar provision (sec. 
     1238) that would request the Secretaries of the Defense and 
     State Departments to urgently complete a strategy to counter 
     Russian malign influence.
       The Senate recedes with an amendment that would call on the 
     Secretary of Defense and the Secretary of State to urgently 
     prioritize submission of the report required by section 
     1239A(d) of the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal 
     Year 2018 (Public Law 115-91; 131 Stat. 1671) on a 
     comprehensive strategy to counter malign activities of 
     Russia.
     Initiative to support protection of national security 
         academic researchers from undue influence and other 
         security threats (sec. 1286)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1283) that would 
     require the Secretary of Defense to implement an application 
     certification requirement for researchers seeking funding to 
     ensure that funds not be made available to any individual who 
     has participated in or is currently participating in a 
     foreign talent program.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes with an amendment that would replace the 
     certification requirement with a directive to the Secretary 
     of Defense to establish an initiative to support the 
     protection of national security academic researchers from 
     undue influence, including through foreign talent programs, 
     and other security threats, by developing policies, training, 
     and regulations and procedures with academic organizations to 
     support the goals of this initiative.
       The conferees believe that such an initiative will help 
     support the protection of intellectual property, controlled 
     information, key personnel, and information about critical 
     technologies relevant to national security; protect academic 
     freedom and global scientific collaboration; limit undue 
     influences by countries seeking to exploit United States 
     technology within the Department of Defense research; and 
     support efforts toward the development of domestic talent in 
     relevant scientific and engineering fields.
     Report on Honduras, Guatemala, and El Salvador (sec. 1287)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1299H) that 
     would direct the Secretary of Defense, in coordination with 
     the Director of National Intelligence, to submit to the 
     congressional defense committees, the Committee on Foreign 
     Relations of the Senate, and the Committee on Foreign Affairs 
     of the House of Representatives a report regarding narcotics 
     trafficking corruption and illicit campaign finance in 
     Honduras, Guatemala, and El Salvador not later than 180 days 
     after the enactment of this Act.
       The Senate amendment contained an identical provision (sec. 
     6205).
       The House recedes with an amendment that would direct the 
     Secretary of State, in coordination with the Secretary of 
     Defense and other appropriate officials, to submit the 
     report, rather than the Secretary of Defense and the Director 
     of National Intelligence.
     Modification of freedom of navigation reporting requirements 
         (sec. 1288)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1289) that would 
     amend section 1275 of the National Defense Authorization Act 
     for Fiscal Year 2017 (Public Law 114-328), as amended by 
     section 1262(a)(1) of the National Defense Authorization Act 
     for Fiscal Year 2018

     (Public Law 115-91), to add the Committee on Foreign 
     Relations of the Senate and the Committee on Foreign Affairs

     Navigation Operations (FONOPS) program.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.

         with certain sub-Saharan African countries (sec. 1289)

     Development for the purpose of developing and carrying out 
     the plan required by section 116(b) of the African Growth and 
     Opportunity Act under section 3723(b) of title 19, United 
     States Code.
        The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes with an amendment that would modify 
     section 1293 of the National Defense Authorization Act for 
     Fiscal Year 2017 (Public Law 114-328; 19 U.S.C. 3723 note) to 
     require the United States Trade Representative to consult and 
     coordinate with the Millennium Challenge Corporation and the 
     United States Agency for International Development in 
     specified circumstances.
     Certifications regarding actions by Saudi Arabia and the 
         United Arab Emirates in Yemen (sec. 1290)
       The Senate amendment included a provision (sec. 1266) that 
     would prohibit the expenditure of funds to provide authorized 
     in-flight refueling to Saudi or Saudi-led coalition non-
     United States aircraft conducting missions in Yemen, pending 
     certifications by the Secretary of State that the Government 
     of Saudi Arabia is taking certain actions related to the 
     civil war in Yemen. The provision would include several 
     exceptions and a national security waiver that may be 
     exercised by the Secretary of State.
        The House bill contained no such provision.
        The House recedes with an amendment that would require the 
     certification on actions undertaken by the United Arab 
     Emirates in addition to Saudi Arabia.

         Army under Immigration and Nationality Act (sec. 1291)

       The House bill contained no similar provision.

         Trade Treaty (sec. 1292)

     into law.
        The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
        The Senate recedes with an amendment that would prohibit 
     the use of any funds authorized to be appropriated by this

     activities as approved by Congress in furtherance of, 
     pursuant to, or otherwise to implement such Treaty, unless 
     the Treaty has received the advice and consent of the 
     Senate and has been the subject of implementing 
     legislation, as required by Congress.
     Prohibition on provision of weapons and other forms of 
         support to certain organizations (sec. 1293)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1282) that would 
     prohibit the use of funds authorized to be appropriated by 
     this Act to the Department of Defense for fiscal year 2019 to

       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes with a clarifying amendment.
     Modified waiver authority for certain sanctionable 
         transactions under section 231 of the Countering 
         America's Adversaries Through Sanctions Act (sec. 1294)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1236) that would 
     require reports with regard to Russian violations of the INF 
     Treaty and the supply chains for Russian arms sales program. 
     The provision would also require the imposition of sanctions 
     against specific persons, with a focus on persons providing 
     support to the Russian defense industrial supply chain. The 
     provision would also amend section 231 of the Countering 
     America's Adversaries Through Sanctions Act (CAATSA) (Public 
     Law 115-44) by providing an authority to suspend the 
     imposition of sanctions under that Act for 180-day periods if 
     the President provides certain certifications.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes with an amendment that would provide a 
     modified procedure by which the President may use the 
     existing authority under section 236(b) of CAATSA, without 
     regard to the expedited review procedures in section 216 of 
     CAATSA, to waive the application of sanctions if the 
     President provides a certification to the appropriate 
     congressional committees not less than 30 days in advance of 
     the waiver taking effect. The amendment would preclude the 
     President from using the waiver with respect to a significant 
     transaction with specified entities of the Russian defense or 
     intelligence sectors, including the Main Intelligence Agency 
     of the General Staff of the Armed Forces of the Russian 
     Federation (GRU), which the United States intelligence 
     community assessed on January 6, 2017, played a direct role 
     in Russian interference in the 2016 United States 
     presidential election. The President would be required to 
     certify that the waiver is in the national security interests 
     of the United States. The President would also be required to 
     certify that the significant transaction for which the waiver 
     is being used would not: (1) endanger the integrity of any 
     multilateral alliance of which the United States is a part; 
     (2) adversely affect ongoing operations of the Armed Forces 
     of the United States, including coalition operations in which 
     the such forces participate; (3) result in a significant 
     negative impact to defense cooperation between the United 
     States and the country whose government has primary 
     jurisdiction over the person; and (4) significantly increase 
     the risk of compromising United States defense systems and 
     operational capabilities, including through the diversion of 
     United States sensitive technology. The President would be 
     further required to certify that the government with primary 
     jurisdiction over the person who engages in the significant 
     transaction is: (1) taking or will take steps to reduce its 
     inventory of major defense equipment and advanced 
     conventional weapons produced by the defense sector of the 
     Russian Federation as a share of its total inventory of major 
     defense equipment and advanced conventional weapons over a 
     specified period; or cooperating with the United States 
     Government on other matters that are critical to United 
     States strategic national security interests.
       Not later than 120 days after the date on which the 
     President submits the specified certification, and annually 
     thereafter for two years, the amendment would require the 
     Secretary of State and the Secretary of Defense to jointly 
     submit a report on such waiver, including: (1) the extent to 
     which the waiver under section 236(b) has or has not resulted 
     in the compromise of United States systems and operational 
     capabilities, including through the diversion of United 
     States sensitive technology to a person that is part of, or 
     operates for or on behalf of, the intelligence sectors of the 
     Government of the Russian Federation; and (2) the extent to 
     which the government with primary jurisdiction over the 
     person is taking specific enforcement actions.
       Not later than 90 days after the date of the enactment of 
     this Act, the amendment would require the President to submit 
     an initial report that describes those persons that the

     knowingly engaged in a significant transaction with a person 
     that is part of, or operates for or on behalf of, the defense

     Federation. The amendment would also require updates every 90 
     days thereafter for a period of 5 years.

     would modify, waive, or terminate any existing sanctions in 
     effect on the date of enactment of this Act.

       The House bill contained three provisions (sec. 1230A, sec. 
     1267, and sec. 1288) providing a rule of construction that 
     nothing in this Act may be construed as authorizing the use 
     of force against Iran or North Korea.

     the enactment of this Act describing the manner in which the

       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes.
       The conferees direct the Department to provide a report to 
     the congressional defense committees on the assistance 
     provided to Pakistan no later than January 1, 2019. Topics to 
     be covered in the report shall include, but are not limited

     Pakistan as well as the amounts provided under each authority 
     for fiscal years 2016, 2017, and 2018, a detailed description 
     of the main lines of effort as well as the measures of 
     effectiveness and measures of performance associated with 
     each line of effort, and an articulation of the desired 
     outcomes associated with any assistance provided. It is 
     expected that the Department's report will be made at the 
     unclassified level and may include a classified annex.
     Sense of Congress relating to Dr. Shakil Afridi
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1215) that would 
     state that it is the sense of Congress that Dr. Shakil Afridi 
     is an international hero and that the Government of Pakistan 
     should release him immediately from prison.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes.
       The conferees note the contributions of Dr. Afridi to 
     efforts to locate Osama bin Laden, remain concerned about Dr. 
     Afridi's continuing incarceration, and urge the Government of 
     Pakistan to release him immediately.
     Sense of Congress on ballistic missile cooperation to counter 
         Iran
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1224) that would 
     offer a number of findings concerning the importance of 
     ballistic missile defense cooperation to counter Iran and 
     express the sense of Congress that member countries of the 
     Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) should engage in such 
     cooperation with the support of the United States.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes.
       The conferees recognize the importance of ballistic missile 
     defense cooperation in the Middle East, particularly among 
     the member countries of the GCC given Iran's ballistic 
     missile program and its broader destabilizing actions in the 
     region. The conferees encourage the countries of the GCC to 
     take meaningful steps to develop and implement an 
     interoperable ballistic missile defense architecture to 
     defend against the Iranian ballistic missile threat that 
     emphasizes information sharing and includes early warning and 
     tracking data. Furthermore, the conferees support continued 
     bilateral and multilateral missile defense exercises between 
     the United States and its partners in the region and 
     encourage increasing the capacity of those partners through 
     foreign military sales as appropriate and practicable.
     Syria Study Group
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 1224) that

       The House bill contained no such provision.
       The Senate recedes.

     the extent to which Iran is complying with its obligations 
     under the Chemical Weapons Convention.
       The Senate amendment contained no such provision.
       The House recedes.
       The conferees direct the Secretary of Defense and Secretary 
     of State to submit a report not later than February 1, 2019, 
     to the congressional defense committees, the Committee on 
     Foreign Relations of the Senate, and the Committee on Foreign 
     Affairs of the House on the extent to which Iran is complying 
     with its obligations under the Chemical Weapons Convention 
     that includes the following elements:
       (1) A description, assessment, and verification, to the 
     extent practicable, of any credible information that Iran has 
     assisted the Government of Syria in committing actions that 
     violate the convention;
       (2) A description of any dual-use technologies sought by 
     Iran that could advance Iran's capability to produce chemical 
     weapons for offensive use;
       (3) The implications of any activities or technologies 
     described in the elements above for Iran's compliance with 
     international obligations relating to nonproliferation; and
       (4) Any other matters the Secretaries determine to be 
     relevant.
       The report shall be submitted in unclassified form, but may 
     include a classified annex.
     Report on potential release of chemical weapons or chemical 
         weapons precursors from Barzeh Research and Development 
         Center and Him Shinshar chemical weapons storage and 
         bunker facilities in Homs province of Syria
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1227) that would 
     require the Secretary of Defense to submit a report to the 
     congressional defense committees not later than 30 days after 
     the date of the enactment of this Act that contains a review 
     and analysis of the potential for the release of chemical 
     weapons or chemical weapons precursors from two facilities in 
     Syria that were targets of strikes

[[Page H7518]]

     by the United States and partner forces on April 13, 2018.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes.
       The conferees direct the Secretary of Defense to provide a 
     briefing to the congressional defense committees not later 
     than 90 days after the date of the enactment of this Act on 
     the potential for release of chemical weapons or chemical 
     weapons precursors from the two facilities in question, the 
     Barzeh Research and Development Center and the Him Shinshar 
     chemical weapons storage and bunker facilities in Homs 
     province of Syria that were targets of strikes by the United 
     States and partner forces on April 13, 2018. The briefing 
     should include an assessment of the methodology the Secretary 
     of Defense used prior to such strikes to determine the 
     potential of the release of chemical agents or chemical 
     weapons precursors affecting local residents and the 
     potential for chemical agents to enter into the aquifer, air, 
     soil, or other aspects of the environment.
     Report on Iranian support of proxy forces in Syria and 
         Lebanon
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1229) that would 
     require the President to submit to Congress not later than 
     180 days after the date of the enactment of this Act a report 
     that describes the Government of Iran's support of proxy 
     forces in Syria and Lebanon and assesses the resulting threat 
     posed to Israel, other regional allies of the United States, 
     and the interests of the United States.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes.
       The conferees note that the Department of Defense's 
     congressionally mandated annual report on the military power 
     of Iran already requires information on support from Iran to 
     groups designated by the United States as foreign terrorist 
     organizations and regional militant groups, including forces 
     that are willing to carry out operations on behalf of Iran. 
     The conferees encourage the Secretary of Defense to include 
     detailed information in future reports regarding: the 
     regional threats posed by arms or related material 
     transferred by Iran to Hezbollah; the means by which such 
     arms transfers are made; and the impacts of Iranian and 
     Iranian-controlled personnel, including Hezbollah, Shiite 
     militias, and Iran's Revolutionary Guard Corps forces, 
     operating within Syria. The conferees also note that, 
     elsewhere in this report, the conferees direct the Secretary 
     of Defense, in consultation with the Secretary of State and 
     other appropriate officials, to submit to the appropriate 
     congressional committees a report specific to Hezbollah.
     Sense of Congress on the lack of authorization for the use of 
         the Armed Forces against Iran
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1230) that would 
     express the sense of Congress that the use of the Armed 
     Forces against Iran is not authorized by this Act or any 
     other Act.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes.
       The conferees note that nothing in this Act may be 
     construed to authorize the use of the Armed Forces of the 
     United States against Iran. At the time of the signing of 
     this report, the conferees are not aware of any information 
     that would justify the use of military force against Iran 
     under any other statutory authority.
     Afghanistan security
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1230B) that 
     would require the Secretary of Defense, in coordination with 
     the Secretary of State, to submit a report on the progress 
     made by the Government of Afghanistan in achieving the 
     security-sector benchmarks as outlined by the United States-
     Afghan Compact.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes.
       The conferees welcome the introduction of the bilateral 
     U.S.-Afghanistan Compact, and the focus on the four pillars 
     of governance, economics, peace and reconciliation, and 
     security.
       However, the conferees are disappointed by the lack of 
     transparency provided by the Department of Defense and the 
     Department of State on the central tenants of the Compact and 
     the associated benchmarks. The conferees note that further 
     detail on the Compact and its security-sector benchmarks is 
     required elsewhere in this report.
     Sense of Congress on ballistic missile program of Iran
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1230C) that 
     would express the sense of Congress that the ballistic 
     missile program of Iran represents a serious threat to the 
     allies of the United States in the Middle East and Europe, 
     members of the Armed Forces deployed in those regions, and 
     ultimately the United States. It would also express the sense 
     of Congress that the Government of the United States should 
     impose tough primary and secondary sanctions against 
     institutions and persons that directly or indirectly support 
     the program.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes.
       The conferees remain deeply concerned by Iran's ballistic 
     missile program, which poses a significant threat to regional 
     stability and United States interests. Iran's testing and 
     production of ballistic missiles capable of delivering 
     nuclear weapons violates multiple unanimously adopted United 
     Nations Security Council resolutions. To address this threat, 
     the conferees believe existing unilateral and multilateral 
     sanctions should be fully utilized to help deny support to 
     the Iranian ballistic missile program and that the United 
     States should continue to engage with partners and allies to 
     address the Iranian ballistic missile threat.
     Imposition of sanctions
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1230F) that 
     would require the President to impose specified sanctions on 
     As-Saib Ahl al-Haq, Harakat Hezbollah al-Nujaba, and foreign 
     persons with certain associations with the former two 
     organizations.
       The Senate amendment contained no such provision.
       The House recedes.
       The conferees encourage the Secretary of State to 
     continuously review whether groups that are affiliated with 
     Iran meet the criteria for designation as a foreign terrorist 
     organization or the application of sanctions pursuant to 
     Executive Order 13224.
     Report on United States strikes against Syria
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1230G) that 
     would require the Secretary of Defense to submit not later 
     than 30 days after the date of the enactment of this Act to 
     the congressional defense committees a report providing a 
     detailed explanation of the legal basis under both domestic 
     and international law for the strikes conducted by the United 
     States in Syria on April 6, 2017 and April 13, 2018. The 
     House bill also included a provision (sec. 1230H) that would 
     require the Secretary of Defense to submit to the 
     congressional defense committees, the Committee on Foreign 
     Relations of the Senate, and the Committee on Foreign Affairs 
     of the House of Representatives on the United States military 
     strikes on Syria on April 13, 2018.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes.
       The conferees direct the Secretary of Defense to submit, 
     not later than 30 days after the enactment of this Act, a 
     report on the United States strikes on Syria on April 6, 2017 
     and April 13, 2018, to the congressional defense committees 
     and the Committee on Foreign Relations of the Senate, and the 
     Committee on Foreign Affairs of the House of Representatives. 
     The report, which shall be unclassified but may include a 
     classified annex, shall include the following elements:
       (1) A legal analysis of the relevant domestic and 
     international authorities and precedents justifying the 
     strikes;
       (2) A description of the objectives of the strikes and 
     assessment of whether such objectives were achieved by the 
     strikes; and
       (3) An assessment of the extent to which the operations of 
     the Syrian military or other pro-regime forces were affected 
     by such strikes, including whether the strikes had any 
     lasting impact on such operations.
     Report on evolving financing mechanisms leveraged by the 
         Islamic State and affiliate entities
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1230I) that 
     would require the Secretary of Defense, the Secretary of the 
     Treasury, and the Secretary of State to submit to Congress a 
     report that contains an assessment on current and projected 
     funding mechanisms used by the Islamic State of Iraq and 
     Syria (ISIS) and its affiliates, as well as efforts by the 
     United States to deny access to such mechanisms.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes.
       The conferees acknowledge the importance and complexity of 
     counter-terrorist financing efforts led by the Department of 
     the Treasury, the Department of State, the Department of 
     Defense, and other departments and agencies in targeting an 
     array of terrorist organizations, including ISIS, which 
     maintain diversified revenue streams. Therefore, the 
     conferees direct the Secretary of State, the Secretary of 
     Treasury, and Secretary of Defense, in coordination with 
     other relevant Federal officials, to provide a briefing to 
     the congressional defense committees not later than 90 days 
     after the enactment of this Act, on ISIS and its affiliates' 
     finances, trends in their revenue streams and means of 
     financial support, and United States' efforts to deny them 
     access to funding mechanisms.
     Sense of Senate on relocation of Joint Intelligence Analysis 
         Complex
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 1234) that 
     would express the sense of the Senate concerning the 
     relocation of the Joint Intelligence Analysis Complex (JIAC).
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes.
       The conferees note that the House bill and Senate amendment 
     contained provisions, which require that military 
     construction related to the relocation of the JIAC shall take 
     place within the United Kingdom. These provisions are 
     addressed elsewhere in this report. In addition, the 
     conferees believe that in consideration of any future plans, 
     including the conduct of any analysis of alternatives, 
     regarding the relocation of the JIAC, the Secretary of 
     Defense should maintain its collocation with the North 
     Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) Intelligence Fusion 
     Center.

     Statement of policy on United States military investment in 
         Europe
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1235) that would 
     state that it is the policy of the United States to sustain 
     credible deterrence against aggression by the Government of 
     the Russian Federation, including through investments to 
     enhance U.S. force posture in Europe.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes.
       The conferees note that sustaining credible deterrence 
     against Russian aggression and enhancing U.S. force posture 
     in Europe are addressed elsewhere in this report.
     Report on security cooperation between the Russian Federation 
         and Cuba, Nicaragua, and Venezuela
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 1237) that 
     would require the Director of the Defense Intelligence Agency 
     to submit not later than 180 days after the date of enactment 
     of this Act to the appropriate committees of Congress a 
     report on security cooperation between the Russian Federation 
     and Cuba, Nicaragua, and Venezuela.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes.
       The conferees continue to be concerned by Russian military 
     and intelligence activity in the Western Hemisphere and urge 
     the Department of Defense to engage in dialogue and 
     cooperation on security with U.S. partners and allies in the 
     region. Furthermore, conferees direct the Director of the 
     Defense Intelligence Agency not later than 180 days after the 
     date of enactment of this Act to submit to the Committee on 
     Armed Services, Committee on Foreign Relations, and Committee 
     on Appropriations of the Senate and the Committee on Armed 
     Services, the Committee on Foreign Affairs, and the Committee 
     on Appropriations of the House of Representatives a report on 
     security cooperation between the Russian Federation and Cuba,

     the Russian Federation and Cuba, Nicaragua, and Venezuela, 
     respectively, that includes each of the following:

     hardware or technology valued at not less than $1.0 million 
     provided to or purchased by such country since January 1,

       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1238) that would 
     express the sense of Congress that the Russian Federation is 
     in violation of the Chemical Weapons Convention.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes.
       The conferees note that Russia's stock pile of chemical 
     weapons has been implicated and involved in several 
     assassinations and through their actions of inhibiting the 
     Organization for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons' work in 
     Syria, Russia has disregarded the obligations imposed by the 
     Chemical Weapons Convention and is in contravention of that 
     agreement.
     Report on Kremlin-linked corruption
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1241) that would 
     require a report from the Secretary of Treasury, in 
     coordination with the Secretary of State and in consultation 
     with the Director of National Intelligence, regarding certain 
     assets owned by Vladimir Putin, Russian oligarchs, and senior 
     officials of the Russian government not later than 60 days 
     after the enactment of this Act. The provision would also 
     require the report to be published 60 days after it was 
     submitted to Congress.
       The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes.
       The conferees direct the Secretary of Treasury, in 
     coordination with the Secretary of State and in consultation 
     with the Director of National Intelligence, to provide the 
     appropriate congressional committees, including the 
     Committees on Armed Services of the Senate and House of 
     Representatives, with a briefing on the assets owned by 
     Vladimir Putin, the Russian oligarchs mentioned in the report 
     provided to Congress under Sec 241 of Public Law 115-44 
     (CAATSA), and senior officials of the Russian government. The 
     briefing shall include the location, value, size and contents 
     of bank accounts, real estate holdings, and all other 
     financial assets, as well as the use of shell companies 
     employed to hide assets, that belong to the aforementioned

     Report on Russia's support for the Taliban and other 
         destabilizing activities in Afghanistan
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1242) that would 
     require the Secretary of Defense and Secretary of State to 
     jointly submit to the congressional defense and foreign 
     affairs committees a report on Russia's support for the 
     Taliban and other destabilizing activities in Afghanistan.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes.
       The conferees note with deep concern Russia's destabilizing 
     activities in Afghanistan. By misrepresenting the danger that 
     Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant--Khorasan Province 
     (ISIS-K) presents in Afghanistan and providing material 
     support to the Taliban, Russia has consistently undermined 
     the international effort to establish peace and stability in 
     Afghanistan and the Central and South Asian region. To better 
     understand the nature of these activities, the conferees 
     direct the appropriate agency within the Department of 
     Defense, in conjunction with the Intelligence Community, to 
     provide a report to the congressional defense and foreign 
     relations committees no later than January 31st, 2019. The 
     required report should be made at the classified level with 
     an unclassified summary and should address Russian 
     destabilizing activities in the region over the past 10 
     years, an articulation of Russian goals in executing such 
     activities and an assessment of their abilities and potential 
     to affect future operations that run counter to U.S. and 
     Afghan goals in the region.
     Sense of Senate on strategic importance of maintaining 
         commitments under Compacts of Free Association
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 1248) that 
     would express the sense of the Senate concerning the 
     strategic importance of maintaining commitments under 
     Compacts of Free Association.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes.
       The conferees believe that maintaining the commitments of 
     the United States under the Compacts of Free Association is 
     of vital strategic importance to the national security 
     interests of the United States. Furthermore, the conferees 
     note that under compacts with the Freely Associated States 
     (FAS), the Federated States of Micronesia, Republic of the 
     Marshall Islands, and Palau, the United States has exclusive 
     military use rights in these countries in exchange for the 
     defense of the FAS. The Compacts of Free Association (COFA) 
     have enabled the United States to maintain critical access in 
     the Indo-Pacific region and are important to strengthening 
     partnerships and maintaining commitments in the Indo-Pacific 
     region.
     Report on terrorists use of human shields
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 1252) that 
     would require the Secretary of Defense, in consultation with 
     the Secretary of State, to provide a report on the use of 
     human shields by terrorist groups to protect otherwise lawful 
     targets from attack.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes.
       The conferees remain concerned about the use of human 
     shields by terrorists and the challenge such tactics pose for 
     military operations. Therefore, the conferees direct the 
     Secretary of Defense, in consultation with the Secretary of 
     State, to provide a briefing to the congressional defense 
     committees, the Senate Committee on Foreign Relations, and 
     the House Committee on Foreign Affairs no later than March 
     31, 2019, on the use of human shields by terrorists. The 
     briefing should include a discussion of lessons learned by 
     the United States and its allies and partners and actions 
     taken by the Department of Defense (DOD) to address the use 
     of human shields by terrorist groups. The briefing should 
     also include a description of any plans and actions being 
     taken by DOD to incorporate lessons learned into DOD 
     operating guidance, capabilities, and tactics, techniques, 
     and procedures to counter and address the challenge posed by 
     the use of human shields.
     Missile defense exercises in the Indo-Pacific region with 
         United States regional allies and partners
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1255) that would 
     express the sense of the Congress on supporting the continued 
     development and deployment of a robust missile defense in the 
     Indo-Pacific region, including by increasing the capacity of 
     interceptors, sensors and operational concepts; planning for 
     operationally realistic bilateral and multilateral missile 
     defense exercises with regional allies and partners along 
     with exercises that are specifically focused on 
     interoperability; and increasing foreign military sales and 
     areas of co-production for components of missile defense 
     systems among appropriate allies and partners.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes.
       The conferees direct that, not later than 120 days after 
     the date of enactment of this Act, the Secretary of Defense 
     provide a briefing to the congressional defense committees on 
     the plans for missile defense exercises in the Indo-Pacific 
     region with allies and partners to improve interoperability.

     Quadrilateral cooperation and exercise
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1256) that would 
     express the sense of the Congress on supporting quadrilateral 
     cooperation among the United States, Japan, Australia, and 
     India, and others as appropriate.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes.
       The conferees believe that the United States in cooperation 
     with Japan, India, Australia, and other allies and partners 
     should work together to uphold the values of a free and open 
     Indo-Pacific region and promote regional security and 
     stability through appropriate cooperation regarding the rule 
     of law, peaceful resolution of disputes, maritime security, 
     nonproliferation, and counterterrorism.
       Therefore, the conferees direct that, not later than 120 
     days after the date of enactment of this Act, the Secretary 
     of Defense provide to the congressional defense committees a 
     briefing on the plans to enhance security cooperation among 
     the United States, Japan, Australia, India, and other 
     countries, as appropriate, including through appropriate 
     military activities and exercises, capacity building efforts 
     among other countries in the Indo-Pacific region, and joint 
     regional infrastructure initiatives.
     Report on United States military training opportunities with 
         allies and partners in the Indo-Pacific region
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 1256) that 
     would express the sense of the Senate and require a report 
     concerning United States military training opportunities with 
     allies and partners in the Indo-Pacific region.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes.
       The conferees believe that the Secretary of Defense should 
     continue to place emphasis on United States military training 
     exercises with allies in the Indo-Pacific region. Therefore, 
     the conferees direct that, not later than 180 days after the 
     date of the enactment of this Act, the Secretary of Defense 
     submit to the congressional defense committees a report on 
     future United States military training opportunities with 
     allied partner countries in the Indo-Pacific region. The 
     report shall include the following: (1) a detailed 
     description of current United States military exercises 
     involving United States partners and allies in the Indo-
     Pacific region, the manner in which such exercises are 
     intended to improve the capability and capacity of such 
     partners and allies, and the interoperability of such 
     partners and allies with the United States Armed Forces; (2) 
     an analysis of the potential to expand the size, scope, or 
     makeup of such exercises to include additional forces and 
     units of current participants, additional capabilities or 
     training, and other allies and partners in the Indo-Pacific 
     region and other regions; (3) an identification of new United 
     States military exercises that may be initiated with allies 
     and partners, including through multilateral frameworks such

     Pacific region, and potential new allies or partners.

     shall be the policy of the United States to support maritime 
     defense cooperation with Japan, including through the 
     transfer of excess United States naval vessels to the 
     Japanese Maritime Self-Defense Force, and that such transfers 
     should include capabilities such as those represented by the 
     Tarawa class amphibious assault ship, the Austin class 
     amphibious transport dock, and the Charleston class 
     amphibious cargo ship.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes.
       The conferees direct the Secretary of Defense and the 
     Secretary of State jointly to provide a briefing to the 
     Committees on Armed Services of the Senate and the House of 
     Representatives, the Committee on Foreign Relations of the

     level defense engagement.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.

     Administrator to submit to the appropriate congressional 
     committees an unclassified report on United States objectives 
     in Yemen and a strategy to accomplish those objectives. The 
     conferees expect this report to describe United States 
     efforts to coordinate civilian and military efforts in Yemen, 
     the diplomatic strategy with respect to regional partners 
     seeking to end the civil war, and the role that humanitarian 
     support to civilian populations plays in the United States 
     strategy in Yemen.

     Secretary of State on an assessment of Chinese military 
     operations in Djibouti and its compliance with international 
     treaty obligations related to laser weapons and landmines.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes.
       The conferees direct not later than 90 days after the date 
     of enactment of this Act the Secretary of Defense, in 
     coordination with the Secretary of State, to provide a 
     briefing to the Armed Services Committees of the Senate and 
     House of Representatives and the Foreign Relations Committee 
     of the Senate and Foreign Affairs Committee of the House of

     Sense of Congress with respect to the Three Seas Initiative

     would express the sense of Congress with respect to the 
     ``Three Seas Initiative.''
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.

       The conferees believe the ``Three Seas Initiative'' could

     Russian Government to divide Europe and to the regional 
     expansionism of the Chinese Government, particularly in the 
     context of energy and infrastructure. Therefore, the 
     conferees believe the United States should fully support the 
     efforts of the Three Seas Initiative, including by sending a 
     high level delegation to future summits convened by the 
     Initiative, encouraging United States business leaders to 
     participate in the Initiative, and supporting the 
     establishment of a network of Central European chambers of 
     commerce.

     environment and national security challenges in Mexico, 
     including those posed by violence related to narcotics 
     trafficking and cartel activity.

     to students interning, working part time, or in a program 
     that will result in employment post-graduation with 
     Department of Defense components and contractors.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes.
       The conferees direct that not later than 240 days after the

     Report on countries and enemy groups against which the United 
         States has taken military action
       The House bill included a provision (sec. 1299I) that would 
     require the Secretary of Defense to submit to specified 
     committees of Congress a report that identifies the nations, 
     organizations, and persons against which the United States 
     has taken military action pursuant to the Authorization for 
     the Use of Military Force.
       The Senate amendment included no similar provision.
        The House recedes.
       The conferees direct the Secretary of Defense to submit to 
     the congressional defense committees, the Committee on 
     Foreign Relations of the Senate, and the Committee on Foreign 
     Affairs of the House of Representatives not later than 180 
     days after the date of the enactment of this Act a report 
     that identifies the nations, organizations, and persons 
     against which the United States has taken military action 
     pursuant to the Authorization for Use of Military Force 
     (Public Law 107-40; 50 U.S.C. 1541 note).

         the Department of Defense
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1299J) that

     exchanges between Department of State and Department of 
     Defense.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes.
       The conferees note that United States Government personnel 
     must be able to collaborate across departments and agencies 
     to meet complex national security challenges. The conferees 
     believe that exchange programs between the Department of 
     State and Department of Defense are critical for 
     strengthening the capacity of such Departments to promote 
     regional stability around the world while protecting and 
     promoting United States interests. Foreign Service officers 
     serving as political advisors within the Department of 
     Defense provide deep understanding of diplomatic dynamics and 
     issues and can enable, through such exchange programs, the 
     Department of Defense to make effective and sustained 
     contributions to protecting and promoting United States 
     interests. The conferees believe that Foreign Service 
     officers should be embedded forward with Department of 
     Defense personnel to the fullest extent practicable.

         to Congress
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1299L) that

     implement a plan to increase the number and improve the 
     quality of the civilian and military space cadre within the 
     Air Force and establish a new numbered Air Force responsible 
     for space warfighting operations. Finally, the provision

     Rapid, responsive, and reliable space launch (sec. 1603)

     include consideration of rapid, responsive, and reliable 
     space launches for national security space programs and re-
     name the Evolved Expendable Launch Vehicle program the 
     National Security Space Launch program. It would also require 
     the Secretary of Defense to consider both reusable and 
     expendable launch vehicles for any solicitations on or after 
     March 1, 2019, and require the Secretary to notify the 
     appropriate congressional committees 60 days before issuing 
     any solicitation for which reusable launch vehicles are not 
     deemed eligible. Finally, the provision would require the 
     Secretary to conduct a risk and cost impact analysis for 
     launch vehicles for national security payloads, and submit 
     such analysis to the appropriate congressional committees no 
     later than 180 days from the date of enactment of this Act.
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 1605) that 
     would require the Secretary of Defense to pursue a strategy 
     that includes fully or partially reusable launch systems as 
     part of ensuring assured access for national security 
     payloads to space. It would make the same change in name as 
     the House provision and require the Secretary to submit a 
     report to Congress no less than 60 days before any 
     solicitation for procurement of launch services is issued.
       The Senate recedes with several technical amendments and an 
     amendment that would require the Secretary to notify the 
     appropriate congressional committees not later than 10 days 
     after issuing a solicitation for a contract for space launch 
     services for which reusable launch vehicles are not eligible, 
     rather than 60 days before.
       The conferees encourage the Secretary to continue to 
     develop a process to evaluate and certify launch vehicles 
     using previously flown components or systems for national 
     security space launch.
     Provision of space situational awareness services and 
         information (sec. 1604)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1603) that would 
     terminate on January 1, 2024, the authority of the Department 
     of Defense (DOD) to provide space situational awareness data 
     to commercial and foreign entities. The provision would 
     further require the Secretary of Defense to enter into a 
     contract with a federally funded research and development 
     center (FFRDC) to assess which department or departments 
     should assume these authorities. This provision would also 
     direct the Secretary of Defense to develop and submit to 
     Congress a plan to ensure that one or more departments may 
     provide space situational awareness services to non-U.S. 
     Government entities.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes with amendments that would strike the 
     requirement for a contract with an FFRDC and instead require 
     the President to submit to the appropriate congressional 
     committees no later than 180 days from the date of enactment 
     of this Act a plan for a department or agency other than the 
     DOD to provide space situational awareness services and 
     information to commercial and foreign entities.
     Budget assessments for national security space programs (sec. 
         1605)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1604) that would 
     extend the requirement for an annual report on the budget for 
     national security space programs to fiscal year 2021 and 
     allow the Secretary of Defense to submit the report up to 30 
     days after the date on which the President submits the budget 
     request to Congress.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes.
     Improvements to commercial space launch operations (sec. 
         1606)
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 1604) that 
     would prohibit the imposition by the Secretary of Defense of 
     requirements duplicative of those imposed by the Secretary of 
     Transportation under chapter 509 of title 10, United States 
     Code. The provision would allow the Secretary of Defense to 
     waive this prohibition if he determines that imposing a 
     requirement is necessary to avoid negative consequences for 
     the national security space program.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes with a technical amendment and an 
     amendment that would grant the above waiver authority to the 
     Secretary of the Air Force, with a requirement to notify the 
     Secretary of Transportation first.
     Space warfighting policy, review of space capabilities, and 
         plan on space warfighting readiness (sec. 1607)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1612) that would 
     require the Secretary of Defense to develop and commence 
     implementation of a plan that identifies joint mission-
     essential tasks for space as a warfighting domain.
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 1602) that 
     would require the Secretary of Defense to develop a space 
     warfighting policy not later than March 29, 2019. The 
     provision would also direct the Secretary of Defense to 
     conduct a review relating to the national security space 
     enterprise, including resiliency, attribution challenges, 
     deterrence, acquisition cycles, organizational structures, 
     and emerging threats.
       The House recedes with amendments that would incorporate 
     the plan required by the House provision into the Senate 
     provision, both due not later than March 29, 2019, and modify 
     several of the specific requirements of the review required 
     by the Senate provision. The conferees also encourage 
     coordination with the Director of National Intelligence as 
     the review is conducted and this policy is developed.
       The conferees note that national security satellites face 
     growing threats from potential adversary attacks, such as 
     anti-satellite weapons or jamming, and from environmental 
     hazards, such as orbital debris. A single launch failure, on-
     orbit problem, or attack on a single satellite could result, 
     in some cases, in the loss of billions of dollars of 
     investment and a significant loss of capability. Protecting 
     space assets has therefore become a priority for the 
     Department, and funding for space protection has increased in 
     recent years.
       Accordingly, the conferees direct the Comptroller General 
     of the United States to conduct a review of space protection 
     programs of the Department of Defense, including a review of 
     the status of the primary space protection acquisition 
     efforts underway or planned by the Department. The conferees 
     are also interested in the extent to which these efforts and 
     plans are coordinated across the Department and among other 
     government, commercial, and international entities.
       The conferees direct the Comptroller General to provide a 
     briefing to the congressional defense committees no later 
     than March 15, 2019, with a report to follow by a date agreed 
     at the time of the briefing.
     Use of small- and medium-size buses for strategic and 
         tactical satellite payloads (sec. 1608)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1606) that would 
     require the Secretary of Defense to provide a briefing on the 
     risks, benefits, and cost savings associated with using 
     small- and medium-size buses for strategic and tactical 
     satellite payloads for protected satellite communications 
     programs and next-generation overhead persistent infrared 
     systems. The provision would also require

[[Page H7527]]

     the Director of Cost Assessment and Program Evaluation (CAPE) 
     to certify that future analyses of alternatives include 
     materiel solutions for using small- and medium-size buses. 
     Finally, this provision would require the Secretary of 
     Defense, Secretary of the Air Force, and the Chairman of the 
     Joint Chiefs of Staff to provide a briefing to the Committees 
     on Armed Services of the Senate and the House of 
     Representatives, not later than 240 days after the date of 
     the enactment of this Act, on alternative space-based 
     architectures using small-, medium-, and large-size buses.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes with amendments that would specify that 
     the CAPE assessments should be submitted at completion of 
     each relevant analysis of alternatives, and that the briefing 
     provided by the Secretary of Defense should also take into 
     account requirements for radiation hardening of critical 
     components.
     Enhancement of positioning, navigation, and timing capacity 
         (sec. 1609)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1605) that would 
     require the Secretary of the Air Force to ensure that 
     military Global Positioning System user equipment terminals 
     have the capability to receive trusted signals from the 
     Galileo and QZSS satellite constellations, starting with 
     increment 2. This provision would also require the terminals 
     to have the capability to receive non-allied positioning, 
     navigation, and timing signals if the Secretary of Defense 
     determines that the benefits outweigh the risks or the risks 
     can be appropriately mitigated.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes with an amendment that would allow the 
     Secretary of Defense to waive the requirement for increment 2 
     terminals to receive signals from Galileo and QZSS satellites 
     if he determines it necessary for national security. The 
     Secretary would not be able to delegate such waiver authority 
     below the level of the Deputy Secretary of Defense and would 
     be required to submit a report with the waiver providing 
     rationale for why the capability was not incorporated into 
     increment 2, and providing a plan and timeline for 
     incorporation of the capability in future increments.
     Designation of component of Department of Defense responsible 
         for coordination of modernization efforts relating to 
         military-code capable GPS receiver cards (sec. 1610)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1607) that would 
     require the Secretary of Defense to designate a component of 
     the Office of the Secretary of Defense to be responsible for 
     coordinating common solutions for the military-code 
     modernization efforts among the military departments, Defense 
     Agencies, and other appropriate elements of the Department of 
     Defense not later than 30 days after the date of enactment of 
     this Act. The provision would also require the Secretary to 
     submit a report no later than March 15, 2019, and annually 
     through 2021, on these efforts.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes.
       The conferees appreciate the efforts of the Council on 
     Oversight of the Department of Defense Position, Navigation, 
     and Timing Enterprise to support military-code modernization 
     efforts thus far and encourage the Secretary to draw on the 
     expertise of the Council.
     Designation of component of Department of Defense responsible 
         for coordination of hosted payload information (sec. 
         1611)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1608) that would 
     make a series of findings and require the Secretary of 
     Defense to designate a component of the Department of Defense 
     to be responsible for coordinating information, processes, 
     and lessons learned relating to use of commercially hosted 
     payloads across the military departments, Defense Agencies, 
     and other appropriate elements of the Department of Defense 
     not later than 30 days after the date of the enactment of 
     this Act.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes with an amendment that would strike the 
     findings.
     Limitation on availability of funds for Joint Space 
         Operations Center mission system (sec. 1612)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1609) that would 
     prohibit the obligation or expenditure of any funds for 
     fiscal year 2019 for the Joint Space Operations Center 
     Mission System (JMS) and limit obligation or expenditure of 
     25 percent of funds for fiscal year 2019 for the Enterprise 
     Space Battle Management Command and Control program until the 
     Deputy Secretary of Defense provides to the congressional 
     defense committees a certification that the Secretary of the 
     Air Force has entered into a contract to operationalize 
     commercial space situational awareness processing software to 
     address warfighter requirements and fill gaps in current 
     space situational awareness capabilities.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes with an amendment that would modify the 
     limitation on funds for JMS to 50 percent and require the 
     Secretary of the Air Force to submit the certification, 
     rather than the Deputy Secretary of Defense.
     Evaluation and enhanced security of supply chain for 
         protected satellite communications programs and overhead 
         persistent infrared systems (sec. 1613)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1610) that would 
     require the Secretary of Defense to develop a plan for and 
     conduct evaluations of supply chain vulnerabilities for 
     protected satellite communications and next-generation 
     overhead persistent infrared (OPIR) systems, and develop risk 
     mitigation strategies for the identified vulnerabilities. The 
     provision would also require the Secretary to establish 
     requirements to carry out the supply chain vulnerability 
     evaluation and submit such requirements to the congressional 
     defense committees not later than 120 days after the date of 
     the enactment of this Act.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes with a clarifying amendment.
       The conferees note that the National Defense Authorization 
     Act for Fiscal Year 2018 (Public Law 115-91) contained a 
     similar provision, section 1659, that required the Secretary 
     of Defense to evaluate supply chain vulnerabilities for 
     programs related to nuclear weapons, nuclear command, 
     control, and communications, continuity of government, and 
     ballistic missile defense. The conferees encourage the 
     Secretary to leverage work done in support of that 
     requirement where appropriate, and do not intend for this 
     provision to supersede section 1659.
       The conferees note that the Air Force is currently planning 
     to use an accelerated acquisition process to rapidly develop 
     a block of next generation OPIR satellites, with fielding to 
     begin in fiscal year 2025, and a follow-on block in fiscal 
     year 2030. While this program is mainly intended to focus on 
     core survivable strategic missile warning requirements, it is 
     unclear whether and how it will satisfy other requirements, 
     including those addressed by the legacy Space Based Infrared 
     System (SBIRS). It is also unclear how technology development 
     over the past decade will help inform the next generation 
     program.
       Accordingly, the conferees direct the Comptroller General 
     of the United States to review the early planning for the 
     next generation OPIR system and associated ground 
     capabilities. The review should assess: 1) What challenges 
     and risks, if any, does the next generation OPIR acquisition 
     effort face, and what, if anything, is being planned to 
     address these challenges and risks? 2) To what extent will 
     the next generation OPIR system continue to fulfill existing 
     key SBIRS capabilities? 3) To what extent is the Air Force 
     coordinating with other agencies inside and outside the 
     Department of Defense, such as the Missile Defense Agency, to 
     help ensure sustainment of current capabilities and limit the 
     potential for duplicative acquisition efforts? 4) To what 
     extent is the Air Force leveraging commercial space industry 
     advances and technology development initiatives to develop a 
     lower cost system sooner?
       The Comptroller General shall provide an initial briefing 
     to the congressional defense committees no later than March 
     15, 2019, with a report to follow at a date to be agreed upon 
     at the time of the briefing.
     Report on protected satellite communications (sec. 1614)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1611) that would 
     require the Secretary of Defense to submit a report to the 
     congressional defense committees no later than December 31, 
     2018, on how specific protected satellite communications 
     programs meet the requirements for resilience, mission 
     assurance, and the nuclear command, control, and 
     communication mission of the Department of Defense.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes.
     Report on enhancements to the Global Positioning System 
         Operational Control Segment (sec. 1615)
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 1603) that 
     would require the Secretary of the Air Force to submit a 
     report to the congressional defense committees no later than 
     1 year after date of the enactment of this Act on potential 
     further enhancements to the Operational Control Segment for 
     the Global Positioning System to achieve capabilities similar 
     to the Next Generation Operational Control Segment, including 
     cybersecurity enhancements and other incremental 
     capabilities. The report would also include the cost and 
     schedule for such additional capabilities and enhancements.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes with clarifying amendments.
     Report on persistent weather imagery for United States 
         Central Command (sec. 1616)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1614) that would 
     require the Secretary of the Air Force to develop a plan to 
     provide persistent weather imagery of the U.S. Central 
     Command area of operations to the Command after 2025. The 
     Secretary would be required to submit such plan to the 
     congressional defense committees by March 1, 2019.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes with an amendment that would instead 
     require the Secretary to submit a report with options to 
     provide such imagery.

[[Page H7528]]

  

     Study on space-based radio frequency mapping (sec. 1617)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1613) that would 
     require the Secretary of Defense and the Director of National 
     Intelligence to jointly conduct a study on the capabilities 
     of the private sector with respect to radio frequency mapping 
     and associated services for space-based electromagnetic 
     collections.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes with clarifying amendments.
     Independent study on space launch locations (sec. 1618)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1615) that would 
     require the Secretary of Defense to enter into a contract 
     with a federally funded research and development center 
     (FFRDC) to conduct a study on space launch locations, 
     including with respect to the development and capacity of 
     existing and new locations, and the vulnerabilities of the 
     use of existing and new locations.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes with several amendments that would 
     clarify the areas of focus of the study and remove the 
     prohibition on entering into a contract with an FFRDC for 
     which the Air Force Space Command or the Launch Center of the 
     National Aeronautical and Space Administration is a sponsor.
       The conferees continue to recognize the unique importance 
     of U.S. Federal Aviation Administration-licensed spaceports 
     and, when appropriate, encourage the use of such spaceports 
     and complexes for certain orbits in support of national 
     security space priorities. The conferees note that a variety 
     of spaceports are already operational or in development, 
     including in Georgia, New Mexico, Alaska, Oklahoma, Virginia, 
     Texas, and Arizona; the conferees support this 
     diversification of launch options available to the Department 
     of Defense.
     Briefing on commercial satellite servicing capabilities (sec. 
         1619)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1617) that would 
     require the Secretary of Defense, in consultation with the 
     Director of National Intelligence, to jointly provide to the 
     congressional defense committees and to other appropriate 
     committees upon request a briefing detailing the costs, 
     risks, and operational benefits of leveraging commercial 
     satellite servicing capabilities for national security 
     satellite systems.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes.

  Subtitle B--Defense Intelligence and Intelligence-Related Activities

     Role of Under Secretary of Defense for Intelligence (sec. 
         1621)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1621) that would 
     amend section 137 of title 10, United States Code, to clarify 
     the responsibilities of the Under Secretary of Defense for 
     Intelligence.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes with a clarifying amendment.
     Security vetting for foreign nationals (sec. 1622)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1622) that would 
     authorize the Secretary of Defense to apply additional 
     security reviews to dual citizens seeking positions that 
     require access to highly classified information.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes with an amendment that would broaden the 
     provision to vetting, instead of solely clearances, and would 
     involve the Security Executive Agent.
     Department of Defense Counterintelligence polygraph program 
         (sec. 1623)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1623) that would 
     amend section 1564a of title 10, United States Code, by 
     authorizing the Secretary of Defense to add dual citizens to 
     the Department of Defense counterintelligence polygraph 
     program, for the purposes of assessing risk.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes with an amendment that specifies that 
     this addition will only apply in the case of an authorized 
     investigation.
     Defense intelligence business management systems (sec. 1624)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1624) that would 
     direct the Chief Management Officer of the Department of 
     Defense to develop and implement standardized business 
     process rules for the planning, programming, budgeting, and 
     execution process for the Military Intelligence Program.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes.
       The conferees note that insufficient insight into the 
     Military Intelligence Program budget inhibits the 
     congressional oversight of the Military Intelligence Program.
     Modification to annual briefing on the intelligence, 
         surveillance, and reconnaissance requirements of the 
         combatant commands (sec. 1625)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1625) that would 
     require the Department of Defense to incorporate into the 
     existing report required by section 1626 of the Carl Levin 
     and Howard P. ``Buck'' McKeon National Defense Authorization 
     Act for Fiscal Year 2015 (Public Law 113-291) data related to 
     the number of requests for intelligence, surveillance, and 
     reconnaissance capability and capacity submitted to the 
     Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff (CJCS) by the combatant 
     commanders, the number of requests formally validated by the 
     CJCS, the quantity of validated requests tasked to the 
     Services to fulfill, and the amount of validated requests 
     actually fulfilled by the Services.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes.
     Framework on governance, mission management, resourcing, and 
         effective oversight of combat support agencies that are 
         also elements of the intelligence community (sec. 1626)
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 1611) that 
     would require the Secretary of Defense to develop and codify 
     in policy a framework and supporting processes within the 
     Department of Defense to ensure that the missions, roles, and 
     functions of the combat support agencies of the Department of 
     Defense that are also elements of the intelligence community, 
     and other intelligence components of the Department, are 
     appropriately balanced and resourced.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes with a clarifying amendment.

                 Subtitle C--Cyberspace-Related Matters

     Reorganization and consolidation of certain cyber provisions 
         (sec. 1631)
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 1624) that 
     would amend part I of subtitle A of title 10, United States 
     Code, by transferring sections 130g, 130j, and 130k, 
     currently of chapter 3, to chapter 19, reorganizing this law 
     under ``Cyber Matters'' rather than ``General Powers and 
     Functions.''
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes.
     Affirming the authority of the Secretary of Defense to 
         conduct military activities and operations in cyberspace 
         (sec. 1632)
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 1622) that 
     would affirm the authority of the Secretary of Defense to 
     conduct military activities and operations in cyberspace, 
     including clandestine military activities and operations, to 
     defend the United States, its allies, and its interests, in 
     anticipation of and in response to malicious cyber activities 
     carried out against the United States or a United States 
     person by a foreign power and would clarify that clandestine 
     military activities or operations in cyberspace are 
     traditional military activities for the purposes of section 
     503(e)(2) of the National Security Act of 1947 (Public Law 
     80-253).
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes with an amendment that would clarify that 
     the affirmation does not itself authorize any specific 
     military activities or operations and should not be treated 
     as an authorization for use of military force.
       The conferees note that the Department of Defense faces 
     difficulties within the interagency in obtaining mission 
     approval. One of the challenges routinely confronted by the 
     Department is the perceived ambiguity as to whether 
     clandestine military activities and operations, even those 
     short of cyber attacks, qualify as traditional military 
     activities as distinct from covert actions requiring a 
     Presidential Finding. As a result, with respect to actions 
     that produce effects on information systems outside of areas 
     of active hostilities, the Department of Defense has been 
     limited to proposing actions that could be conducted overtly 
     on attributable infrastructure without deniability--an 
     operational space that is far too narrow to defend national 
     interests. The conferees see no logical, legal, or practical 
     reason for allowing extensive clandestine traditional 
     military activities in all other operational domains (air, 
     sea, ground, and space) but not in cyberspace. It is 
     unfortunate that the executive branch has squandered years in 
     interagency deliberations that failed to recognize this basic 
     fact and that this legislative action has proven necessary.
       The conferees, in this affirmation, specify that military 
     activities and operations, or associated preparatory actions, 
     conducted in cyberspace, marked by, held in, or conducted 
     with secrecy, and carried out, (1) as part of a military 
     operation plan approved by the President or the Secretary in 
     anticipation of hostilities or as directed by the President 
     or the Secretary, (2) to deter, safeguard, or defend against 
     attacks or malicious cyber activities against the United 
     States or Department of Defense information, networks, 
     systems, installations, facilities, or other assets, or (3) 
     in support of information related capabilities, indeed 
     qualify as traditional military activities. Such activities 
     include those conducted for the purpose of preparation of the 
     environment, force protection, deterrence of hostilities, 
     advancing counterterrorism operations, and in support of 
     information operations or information-related capabilities. 
     Information-related capabilities may include, when 
     appropriate and approved, military deception and 
     psychological operations.
       The conferees do not intend or expect that this provision 
     will result in the Department's unnecessarily or routinely 
     conducting clandestine cyber attacks, especially those 
     outside of areas in which hostilities

     are occurring, but nonetheless recognize that it is important 
     that the Department have the ability to respond to and 
     prepare for hostilities in cyberspace. The conferees urge the 
     Department to pursue more active engagement with and 
     deterrence of adversaries in cyberspace. The conferees also 
     urge the administration to reconfigure its interagency 
     processes as necessary to ensure that the Department's 
     operations are approved in an appropriately efficient and 
     effective manner.
       The conferees intend to conduct rigorous oversight of 
     Department of Defense clandestine operations in cyberspace 
     and expect the Department to keep the congressional defense 
     committees apprised of activities and operations and informed 
     regarding operational authorities and associated execute 
     orders.
       Finally, the conferees recognize that information 
     operations are particularly contested and controversial. 
     While the conferees agree that the Department should conduct 
     aggressive information operations to deter adversaries, as is 
     recommended by the Defense Science Board's Task Force on 
     Cyber Deterrence in its February 2017 report, the conferees 
     do not intend this affirmation as an authorization of 
     clandestine activities against the American people or of 
     activities that could result in any significant exposure of 
     the American people and media to U.S. government-created 
     information.
     Department of Defense Cyber Scholarship Program scholarships 
         and grants (sec. 1633)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1640) that would 
     amend section 2200c of title 10, United States Code, to 
     require consideration, in the scholarship granting process 
     authorized in section 2200a of the same title, of whether the 
     candidates in question are pursuing education at historically 
     Black colleges and universities or other minority-serving 
     institutions.
       The Senate amendment contained an identical (sec. 6101) 
     provision.
       The conference agreement includes this provision.
     Amendments to pilot program regarding cyber vulnerabilities 
         of Department of Defense critical infrastructure (sec. 
         1634)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1631) that would 
     modify section 1650 of the National Defense Authorization Act 
     for Fiscal Year 2017 (Public Law 114-328) to incorporate the 
     Defense Digital Service into pilot program authorities for 
     identifying innovative methodologies and engineering 
     approaches to evaluate vulnerabilities of Department of 
     Defense critical infrastructure. The provision would also 
     extend deadlines associated with the program.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes.
     Modification of acquisition authority of the Commander of the 
         United States Cyber Command (sec. 1635)
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 1627) that 
     would amend section 807 of the National Defense Authorization 
     Act for Fiscal Year 2016 (Public Law 114-92) by extending the 
     acquisition authority established in that section for the 
     Commander, U.S. Cyber Command, through fiscal year 2025 and 
     raising the limit on obligation and expenditure pursuant to 
     that authority to $250.0 million.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes with an amendment that would eliminate 
     the increase of the limit on obligation and expenditure. The 
     conferees direct the Commander, U.S. Cyber Command, to 
     provide, not later than 180 days after the enactment of this 
     Act, to the congressional defense committees a report 
     detailing the use of this authority to date.
       The report shall include an assessment of any impacts of 
     the expenditure limit set on the exercise of this authority 
     on planned Cyber Command acquisition activities, as well as a 
     juxtaposition of the types of cyber-peculiar products, 
     services, and technologies procured using this authority and 
     those cyber capabilities procured by the Services using their 
     acquisition authorities. The report shall also include the 
     definition of cyber-peculiar capabilities and cyber-peculiar 
     services, a description of memoranda of agreements with the 
     Services for acquisition of cyber capabilities, and details 
     regarding the acquisition expertise at U.S. Cyber Command, 
     including the number of senior acquisition executives and 
     contracting officials authorized to be hired at the 
     headquarters.
     Policy of the United States on cyberspace, cybersecurity, 
         cyber warfare, and cyber deterrence (sec. 1636)
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 1621) that 
     would establish the policy of the United States with respect 
     to cyberspace, cybersecurity, and cyber warfare.
       The Senate amendment contained another provision (sec. 
     6601) that would amend section 1621 to narrow the policy's 
     prescriptions to only apply to cyber attacks and malicious 
     cyber activities by a foreign power.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes with an amendment that would integrate 
     both provisions and would make minor changes to the statement 
     of policy, striking the priorities of the United States in 
     carrying out the policy and the policy on sovereignty in 
     cyberspace. The amendment would also require an update on the 
     Presidential Policy submitted to the Congress pursuant to 
     section 1633 of the National Defense Authorization Act for 
     Fiscal Year 2018 (Public Law 115-91).
       The conferees note that the policy submitted to the 
     Congress was incomplete. The 6-page memorandum, written in 
     response to the reporting requirement of the National Defense 
     Authorization Act, introduced a 63-page report written in 
     response to Executive Order 13800. The conferees were 
     disappointed with the former's brevity and the latter's 
     significant number of items to be resolved. The report in sum 
     evinced little consideration of the difficult choices 
     intrinsic to the policy-making process, instead recommending 
     further working groups, task forces, and deliberation for the 
     creation and implementation of a national strategy in 
     cyberspace.
       The conferees therefore seek an update on the progress of 
     the core initiatives recommended by report: the establishment 
     of a policy for cost imposition, a menu for consequences, 
     policy-planning guidance, and the Cyber Deterrence 
     Initiative.
       In reporting the status of these initiatives, the conferees 
     urge the President to include, to the extent possible and 
     protected by classification, as necessary: (1) the 
     administration's plans, including specific planned actions, 
     regulations, and legislative action required for their 
     development; (2) steps taken to date to prepare for the 
     imposition of consequences against the Russian Federation, 
     People's Republic of China, Democratic People's Republic of 
     Korea, and the Islamic Republic of Iran in cyberspace (e.g., 
     zero-day discovery, tool-development, and preposition of 
     malware) and through other instruments of national power; and 
     (3) criteria for use of particular consequences, including 
     criteria as to when responsive cyber attacks are likely to be 
     particularly escalatory, as to when, and specifically against 
     which adversaries, responsive cyber attacks are likely to be 
     particularly effective as means of deterrence, and as to when 
     the risk and consequences of escalation due to responsive 
     action outweigh the risk and cost of non-action or action by 
     financial, law enforcement, and diplomatic means alone.
       The conferees also urge the President to include the 
     administration's considerations and determinations 
     surrounding: (1) whether all cyber attacks of significant 
     consequence below the threshold of war demand response; (2) 
     whether significant attacks on private sector companies 
     outside of critical infrastructure demand response, including 
     examples of attacks on companies that might beget response; 
     (3) whether, in certain circumstances, the United States 
     should privilege immediacy in response to achieving full 
     technical attribution; (4) under what circumstances the 
     United States should attempt to blunt, render useless, or 
     defeat detected attacks through offensive cyber action in 
     real-time, including examples of such circumstances; (5) how 
     the United States can balance the establishment of stable 
     norms in cyberspace and responsive offensive action, 
     including through diplomatic means; (6) how the United States 
     balances the sovereignty and equities of third-party 
     countries whose infrastructure hosts or accommodates transit 
     of adversary malware, including examples of feasible and 
     infeasible actions; and (7) how the United States balances 
     privacy, freedom of action, and values implicit to a market 
     economy in imposing cybersecurity and disclosure requirements 
     on the private sector, including an assessment of the 
     adequacy of current law and regulations.
     Budget display for cyber vulnerability evaluations and 
         mitigation activities for major weapon systems of the 
         Department of Defense (sec. 1637)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1632) that would 
     require that the justification materials submitted to the 
     Congress by the Secretary of Defense in support of the 
     President's annual budget request for the Department of 
     Defense include a consolidated display for cyber 
     vulnerability evaluations and mitigation activities for each 
     major weapon system beginning in fiscal year 2021.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes with an amendment that would clarify the 
     classification procedures governing this requirement.
       The conferees are concerned that the Department has yet to 
     integrate cyber vulnerability evaluations and mitigation 
     activities into the acquisition and budgeting timelines of 
     its major programs. The conferees hope that this provision 
     will encourage the notion that cyber vulnerability 
     evaluations and mitigation activities are standard operation 
     and maintenance. The conferees do not, however, intend this 
     provision to in any way reveal the nature, content, or 
     severity of discovered vulnerabilities and thus encourage the 
     Department to protect through classification any material 
     that could serve to aid adversaries' discovery of cyber 
     vulnerabilities.
     Determination of responsibility for the Department of Defense 
         Information Networks (sec. 1638)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1633) that would 
     mandate that the Secretary of Defense transfer all roles, 
     missions, and responsibilities of the Commander, Joint Force 
     Headquarters-Department of Defense Information Networks 
     (JHFQ-DODIN) from the Defense Information Support Agency 
     (DISA) to the Commander, United States Cyber Command, by 
     September 30, 2019, subject to a certification that such 
     transfer would not result in mission degradation.

[[Page H7530]]

       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes with an amendment that would eliminate 
     the mandate and would instead require the Secretary of 
     Defense to submit to the congressional defense committees a 
     report assessing the current JFHQ-DODIN command and control 
     structure, the adequacy of DISA's institutional support to 
     the JFHQ-DODIN mission, and JFHQ-DODIN's resource 
     requirements and mission effectiveness. The report would also 
     specify a determination and justification regarding the 
     transfer of all or some of the roles, missions, and 
     responsibilities of JFHQ-DODIN to the Commander, United 
     States Cyber Command, along with a timeline and strategy for 
     mitigating the risk of any such transfer.
     Procedures and reporting requirement on cybersecurity 
         breaches and loss of personally identifiable information 
         and controlled unclassified information (sec. 1639)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1636) that would 
     require the Secretary of Defense to promptly notify, and 
     establish procedures for notification of, the congressional 
     defense committees in the event of a significant loss of 
     personally identifiable information of at least 250 civilian 
     or uniformed members of the Armed Forces.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes with an amendment that would insert an 
     additional notification requirement for the theft, loss, or 
     disclosure of controlled information of significant volume or 
     national security concern.
       The conferees are concerned by the recent theft of 
     controlled information from a contractor for the Navy. 
     Similarly troubling, the congressional defense committees 
     were only alerted to this significant breach months after the 
     initial loss. While the conferees understand that extenuating 
     circumstances dictated that senior members of Navy leadership 
     were similarly late to notification of the theft and that the 
     investigation is on-going, this communication delay, both 
     within the Department of Defense and across the branches of 
     government, is unacceptable for a loss of this magnitude. The 
     conferees thus expect the congressional defense committees to 
     be notified, through the procedures established under this 
     provision, of future losses of controlled information and 
     will continue to exercise their oversight and legislative 
     responsibilities to correct the failures evinced in this 
     incident.
     Program to establish cyber institutes at institutions of 
         higher learning (sec. 1640)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1637) that would 
     authorize the Secretary of Defense to establish a Cyber 
     Institute at each of the senior military colleges.
       The Senate amendment contained a similar provision (sec. 
     1635) that would authorize the Secretary of Defense to 
     establish a Cyber Institute at any college or university that 
     hosts a Reserve Officers' Training Corps program, with 
     special consideration for the Senior Military Colleges.
       The House recedes.
     Matters pertaining to the SharkSeer cybersecurity program 
         (sec. 1641)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1640A) that 
     would require the Secretary of Defense to submit to the 
     congressional defense committees a report that assesses the 
     transition of the SharkSeer program from the National 
     Security Agency (NSA) to the Defense Information Systems 
     Agency (DISA).
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 1629) that 
     would require the Secretary of Defense to transfer the 
     SharkSeer cybersecurity program from the NSA to the DISA. In 
     executing this transfer, the Secretary would be required to 
     also transfer all funding and, as needed, personnel for the 
     program. The provision would also: fence 10 percent of the 
     funding available for obligation in fiscal year 2019 and 
     subsequent years for NSA's Information Systems Security 
     Program, PE 33140G, until the Principal Cyber Advisor 
     certifies that the operations and maintenance funding for the 
     SharkSeer program for fiscal year 2019 and the subsequent 
     fiscal years of the current future years defense program are 
     available or programmed; require the Secretary of Defense to 
     adopt the SharkSeer ``break and inspect'' decryption 
     capability as the Department's enterprise solution for 
     endpoint decryption; and authorize an increase of $20.0 
     million to the $790.2 million requested for the DISA in 
     Procurement, Defense-wide, to increase the bandwidth of the 
     SharkSeer system.
       The House recedes with an amendment that would: require the 
     transfer of the operations and maintenance for the SharkSeer 
     cybersecurity program from the NSA to the DISA, including any 
     associated funding and, as necessary, personnel; require the 
     Chief Information Officer to submit a report on such 
     transfer, including a plan for continued partnership with the 
     NSA in capability development; and strike the funding 
     authorization.
  

     Active defense against the Russian Federation, People's 
         Republic of China, Democratic People's Republic of Korea, 
         and Islamic Republic of Iran attacks in cyberspace (sec. 
         1642)
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 1623) that 
     would authorize the National Command Authority to direct the 
     Commander, U.S. Cyber Command, to take appropriate and 
     proportional action through cyberspace to disrupt, defeat, 
     and deter systematic and ongoing attacks by the Russian 
     Federation in cyberspace. The provision would direct the 
     Secretary of Defense, using the results of the surveillance 
     conducted through CYBERCOM, also authorized in the provision, 
     to work with social media companies on a voluntary basis to 
     assist those companies in identifying accounts created by 
     personnel and organizations engaged at the behest of or in 
     support of the Russian Federation and that violate the 
     companies' terms of service.
       The Senate amendment contained another provision (sec. 
     6601) that would amend section 1623 to narrow the 
     authorization to only apply to foreign cyberspace.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes with an amendment that would synthesize 
     the two provisions, add authorizations for action against the 
     People's Republic of China, the Democratic People's Republic 
     of Korea, and the Islamic Republic of Iran, strike the 
     explicit authorization of surveillance, and add a rule of 
     construction governing the authorization.
       The conferees have been disappointed with the past 
     responses of the executive branch to adversary cyberattacks 
     and urge the President to respond to the continuous 
     aggression that we see, for example, in Russia's information 
     operations against the United States and European allies in 
     an attempt to undermine democracy. The administration's 
     passivity in combatting this campaign, as documented 
     repeatedly in hearings before the congressional defense 
     committees in the past 2 years, in the judgment of numerous 
     executive branch officials, will encourage rather than 
     dissuade additional aggression. The Congress has worked 
     diligently to ensure that the Department possesses the 
     necessary capabilities and authorities to combat, in 
     particular, these Russian information operations, and this 
     authorization represents further progress toward that 
     objective. The conferees strongly encourage the President to 
     defend the American people and institutions of government 
     from foreign intervention.
       The conferees are also cognizant of the significant cyber 
     threats posed by the People's Republic of China, the 
     Democratic Republic of Korea, and the Islamic Republic of 
     Iran and urge the President to take action to disrupt, 
     defeat, and deter the systematic cyber attacks.
     Designation of official for matters relating to integrating 
         cybersecurity and industrial control systems within the 
         Department of Defense (sec. 1643)
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 1625) that 
     would require the Secretary of Defense to designate one 
     official as responsible for the integration of cybersecurity 
     and industrial control systems within the Department of 
     Defense, to include the development of Department-wide 
     standards for integration of industrial control systems and 
     the potential applicability of frameworks set forth by the 
     National Institute of Standards and Technology and similar 
     organizations.
        The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes with an amendment that would clarify that 
     the official would only be responsible for industrial control 
     systems owned by the Department of Defense or operated on 
     behalf of the Department of Defense.
     Assistance for small manufacturers in the defense industrial 
         supply chain and universities on matters relating to 
         cybersecurity (sec. 1644)
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 1626) that 
     would require the Secretary of Defense, acting through the 
     Chief Information Officer and Under Secretary of Defense for 
     Research and Engineering, to improve awareness of 
     cybersecurity threats among small- and medium-sized 
     manufacturers in the defense industrial supply chain, 
     including via: the development of cybersecurity self-
     assessments to enhance firms' understanding of network 
     vulnerabilities and the Department's cybersecurity standards; 
     the transfer of appropriate cybersecurity technology and 
     techniques developed in the Department of Defense to these 
     businesses; and the establishment of a cyber counseling 
     certification program.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes with an amendment that would require the 
     Secretary of Defense, acting through the Chief Information 
     Officer and Under Secretary of Defense for Research and 
     Engineering, to improve awareness of cybersecurity threats 
     among universities, in addition to small- and medium-sized 
     manufacturers, in the defense industrial supply chain and to 
     establish a broader cybersecurity activity for the defense 
     industrial base as needed.
     Email and Internet website security and authentication (sec. 
         1645)
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 1628) that 
     would require the Secretary of Defense to implement the 
     requirements of the Binding Operational Directive 18-01, 
     issued by the Secretary of the Department of Homeland 
     Security on October 16, 2017, unless the Secretary certifies 
     that existing or planned security measures exceed the 
     requirements of the directive.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes with an amendment that would eliminate 
     the specification of actions to be undertaken as part of the 
     implementation of Binding Operational Directive

[[Page H7531]]

     18-01 and would add the governmental affairs committees of 
     the Senate and House of Representatives as recipients of the 
     certification.
       The conferees note that Binding Operational Directive 18-01 
     required the following actions, all accepted practices across 
     the private and public sectors: (1) The adoption of the START 
     Transport Layer Security protocol for encryption; (2) 
     Enforcement of Sender Policy Framework, Domain Keys 
     Identified Mail, and Domain-based Message Authentication, 
     Reporting & Conformance for email authentication; and (3) 
     Implementation of Hypertext Transfer Protocol Strict 
     Transport Security.
     Security product integration framework (sec. 1646)
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 1631) that 
     would require the Assistant Secretary of Defense for Homeland 
     Defense and Global Security, the Chief Information Officer, 
     and the Commander, U.S. Cyber Command, to select a network or 
     network segment and associated computer network defense 
     service provider to conduct a demonstration and evaluation of 
     one or more existing security product integration frameworks, 
     including through modification of network security systems to 
     enable such systems to ingest, publish, subscribe, tip and 
     cue, and request information or services from each other.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes with an amendment that would strike the 
     findings.
       The conferees note that: (1) The Department of Defense 
     requires a standard, enterprise-wide, security product 
     integration framework that provides a machine-to-machine data 
     exchange architecture and protocol to achieve 
     interoperability and automated orchestration and coordinated 
     action between and among cybersecurity services, devices, 
     appliances, agents, applications, tools, and command and 
     control centers; (2) Information security products and 
     services need to be engineered to consume and act on 
     information, direction, and cues from other security elements 
     on a network through this framework; (3) A security product 
     integration framework should ideally be non-proprietary or 
     designed as a modular open system; and (4) A security 
     integration framework is essential to achieve the speed, 
     scale, and agility of response required for cyber warfare and 
     to reduce the cost and time needed to integrate new products 
     and services into the existing security environment.
     Information security continuous monitoring and cybersecurity 
         scorecard (sec. 1647)
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 1633) that 
     would prohibit the obligation or expenditure of funds for the 
     Cybersecurity Scorecard after October 1, 2019, unless the 
     Department of Defense is implementing by that date a funded 
     program pursuant to section 1653 of the National Defense 
     Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2017 (Public Law 114-328) 
     to fulfill the requirements established by the Chief 
     Information Officer and the Commander, U.S. Cyber Command, in 
     the Information Security Continuous Monitoring Strategy, 
     Comply-to-Connect Strategy, Enterprise Patch Management 
     Service Strategy and Concept of Operations, and User Activity 
     Monitoring Strategy. The provision would also require the 
     Director of Cost and Program Evaluation to submit to the 
     congressional defense committees a report comparing the 
     Department's requirements for information security continuous 
     monitoring and the comply-to-connect capabilities deployed by 
     the Department of Homeland Security and the General Services 
     Administration.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes with an amendment that would add a 
     requirement for a review and validation of the Department of 
     Defense's current information security continuous monitoring 
     requirements and policies to the report.
     Tier 1 exercise of support to civil authorities for a cyber 
         incident (sec. 1648)
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 6602) that 
     would require the Commander, U.S. Cyber Command, the 
     Commander, U.S. Northern Command, and other commanders or 
     components of the Department of Defense as the Secretary of 
     Defense considers appropriate to conduct a tier 1 exercise of 
     support to civil authorities for a cyber incident.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes.
     Pilot program on modeling and simulation in support of 
         military homeland defense operations in connection with 
         cyber attacks on critical infrastructure (sec. 1649)
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 1630) that 
     would require the Assistant Secretary of Defense for Homeland 
     Defense and Global Security to carry out a pilot program on 
     modeling and simulation in support of military homeland 
     defense operations through U.S. Northern Command and U.S. 
     Cyber Command. The pilot program would be based on the 
     results and lessons learned from ongoing research exercises 
     involving local government, industry, and military responses 
     to combined natural disasters and cyber attacks on critical 
     infrastructure. The provision would authorize $10.0 million 
     for this pilot.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes with an amendment that would generalize 
     the program through adjustment to its scope, would eliminate 
     its required execution through the combatant commands, and 
     would eliminate the authorization.
     Pilot program authority to enhance cybersecurity and 
         resiliency of critical infrastructure (sec. 1650)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1634) that would 
     authorize the Secretary of Defense, in coordination with the 
     Secretary of Homeland Security, to provide technical cyber 
     personnel to the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) to 
     enhance cooperation, collaboration, and unity in government 
     efforts in support of the protection of critical 
     infrastructure.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes.
       The conferees note the Department of Defense's (DOD) 
     ongoing efforts to coordinate with the DHS and expect to see 
     such collaboration continue in the future. In particular, the 
     conferees fully support cooperative strategy development and 
     policy-making to ensure that the DOD and the DHS maintain 
     complementary roles and responsibilities and pursue mutually 
     beneficial policies in the realm of cybersecurity. Therefore, 
     the conferees urge the DOD to place the personnel as part of 
     this pilot program in: DHS's Office of Strategy, Policy, and 
     Plans; the office of the Director, Strategy, Policy, and 
     Plans in the National Protection and Programs Directorate 
     (NPPD); and the NPPD's National Cybersecurity and 
     Communications Integration Center.
     Pilot program on regional cybersecurity training center for 
         the Army National Guard (sec. 1651)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1635) that would 
     authorize the Secretary of the Army to carry out a pilot 
     program to establish a National Guard cyber security training 
     center for members of the Army National Guard for interagency 
     and cross-society cyber education.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes with a technical amendment that 
     establishes a sunset for the authorization.
     Cyberspace Solarium Commission (sec. 1652)
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 1634) that 
     would establish the Cyberspace Solarium Commission, tasked 
     with developing a strategic approach to protecting and 
     advancing the United States' advantages in cyberspace. The 
     Commission would weigh the benefits and costs of various 
     strategic frameworks (e.g., deterrence, norms-based regimes, 
     and cyber persistence), evaluate the sufficiency of the 
     current allocation of resources in cyberspace, and consider 
     potential realignments in governmental structure and 
     authorities.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes with an amendment that would adjust the 
     scope of the Commission, tasking it with developing consensus 
     on a strategic approach to defending the Nation in cyberspace 
     against cyber attacks of significant consequences and making 
     a series of technical changes regarding the structure, 
     authorities, and limitations of the Commission.
     Study and report on reserve component cyber civil support 
         teams (sec. 1653)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1638) that would 
     require the Secretary of Defense and the Secretary of 
     Homeland Security to conduct a study on the feasibility and 
     advisability of establishing cyber civil support teams 
     comprising Reserve Component members, primarily operating 
     under the command and control of the Governor of each State, 
     to prepare for and respond to cyber incidents, cyber 
     emergencies, and cyber attacks.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes with an amendment that would require 
     additional considerations in the study.
       The conferees note that establishment of cyber civil 
     support teams may have significant impacts on, or conflict 
     with, current roles, responsibilities, policies, and 
     resources of agencies and entities in cyberspace and seek 
     greater clarity on these impacts.
     Identification of countries of concern regarding 
         cybersecurity (sec. 1654)
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 1638) that 
     would require the Secretary of Defense to create a 
     prioritized list of countries of concern related to 
     cybersecurity based on their governments' hostility, 
     intelligence activity, criminal activity, and willingness and 
     ability to disrupt the U.S. government's supply chain.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes with an amendment that would adjust the 
     criteria for inclusion on the list.
     Mitigation of risks to national security posed by providers 
         of information technology products and services who have 
         obligations to foreign governments (sec. 1655)
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 1637) that 
     would establish definitions for subsequent provisions 
     relating to the establishment of a program to mitigate the 
     risks derivative of foreign governments' code review of 
     information technology products used by the Department of 
     Defense.
       The Senate amendment contained another provision (sec. 
     1639) that would prohibit the

[[Page H7532]]

     Department of Defense's use of any information technology, 
     cybersecurity, industrial control system, weapons system, or 
     computer antivirus system unless the provider discloses to 
     the Secretary of Defense: (1) whether it has allowed a 
     foreign government to review or access a product custom-
     developed for the Department of Defense or is under any 
     obligation to provide a foreign person or government with 
     access or review of such a product; (2) whether it has 
     allowed a government listed in the report required by section 
     1638 of the Senate amendment to review or access the source 
     code of a product, system, or service that the Department is 
     using or intends to use or is under any obligation to do so; 
     and (3) whether it holds or has sought a license pursuant to 
     the Export Administration Regulations under subchapter C of 
     chapter VII of title 15, Code of Federal Regulations, the 
     International Traffic in Arms Regulations under subchapter M 
     of chapter I of title 22, Code of Federal Regulations, or 
     successor regulations, for information technology products, 
     components, software, or services.
        The Senate amendment contained another provision (sec. 
     1640) that would require the Secretary of Defense to 
     establish a registry containing the information on foreign 
     governments required by section 1638 of the Senate amendment 
     and on providers of information technology products and 
     services required by section 1639 of the Senate amendment, to 
     be made available to any agency conducting a procurement 
     pursuant to the Federal Acquisition Regulations and Defense 
     Federal Acquisition Regulations.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes with an amendment that would: integrate 
     the three provisions (sec. 1637, 1639, and 1640), make a 
     series of technical changes surrounding the use of ``non-
     commercial'' vice ``custom-developed''; limit the disclosure 
     requirements to code-sharing or code-sharing agreements that 
     occurred within 5 years prior to enactment; exempt products, 
     services, and systems procured or acquired prior to enactment 
     from the non-use requirement; exempt open-source software; 
     and require the Secretary of Defense to issue regulations 
     governing the implementation of this non-use.
       While the conferees believe that this provision is a 
     necessary step toward minimizing the supply chain risk posed 
     by companies like Kaspersky, the conferees urge the Secretary 
     to take actions to minimize the potential injury of the non-
     use requirement, to both the Department and industry.
       The conferees recognize that, absent the required 
     regulations, the non-use requirement is all-encompassing and 
     thus encourage the Secretary to exempt from this requirement 
     any product, system, or service if: (1) Its source code has 
     been exported pursuant to a license or license exception 
     granted under the Export Administration Regulations (15 
     C.F.R. Sec. Sec. 730-774); (2) It is not itself, and is not a 
     component of, a National Security System; (3) It is not a 
     cybersecurity tool, system, or application or does not have a 
     built-in cybersecurity tool, system, or application; or (4) 
     It is subjected only to a de minimis disclosure under 
     restricted access conditions, as defined by the Secretary. 
     The conferees also urge the Secretary to exempt any further 
     products, systems, and services and implement this provision 
     so as to minimize supply chain risk and advance national 
     security.
       The conferees also note that the information required to be 
     disclosed to the Department in the provision is: (1) 
     generally considered commercial information; (2) obtained 
     from a person; and (3) most likely confidential. Therefore, 
     the conferees expect that exemption 4 of section 552(b) of 
     title 5 will likely apply to information obtained under this 
     provision.
     Report on Cybersecurity Apprentice Program (sec. 1656)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1640B) that 
     would require the Secretary of Defense to submit to the 
     congressional defense committees a report on the feasibility 
     of establishing a Cybersecurity Apprentice Program to support 
     on-the-job training for certain cybersecurity positions and 
     to facilitate the acquisition of cybersecurity 
     certifications.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes.
       The conferees note the Department's experimental use of 
     recruitment, retention, and training techniques particular to 
     cyber personnel, both civilians and servicemembers. The 
     conferees, however, are also interested in the possibility of 
     applying traditional on-the-job training, such as those that 
     already exist in the Services' ``apprentice and journeymen'' 
     programs, throughout the Department for cyber jobs. The 
     conferees see potential for apprentice programs for enlisted 
     and civilian members of the Armed Forces as a means to 
     improve operational capability.
  

     Report on enhancement of software security for critical 
         systems (sec. 1657)
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 1632) that 
     would require the Assistant Secretary of Defense for Homeland 
     Defense and Global Security and the Chief Information Officer 
     to conduct a technical and cost-benefit study of the merits 
     of applying in the vulnerability assessments and remediation 
     of critical systems fuzzing technology, formal programming, 
     and the binary analysis and symbolic execution software 
     security tools developed under the Cyber Grand Challenge 
     program of the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes with an amendment that would expand the 
     scope of the study to include other advanced or immature 
     technologies.

                       Subtitle D--Nuclear Forces

       The Senate recedes.
     Long-range standoff weapon requirements (sec. 1662)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1642) that would 
     allow the Secretary of the Air Force to retire the 
     conventionally-armed AGM-86C and require the Secretary to 
     ensure that a conventionally-armed long-range standoff weapon 
     (LRSO) achieves initial operating capability (IOC) not later 
     than 4 years after the nuclear-armed LRSO achieves IOC.
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 1642) that 
     would allow the Secretary to retire the conventionally-armed 
     AGM-86C and require the Secretary to begin procurement and 
     fielding of a conventionally-armed LRSO not more than 5 years 
     after the nuclear LRSO completes initial operational test and 
     evaluation.
       The Senate recedes with an amendment that would change the 
     deadline from 4 years to 5 years after the nuclear-armed LRSO 
     achieves IOC.
     Acceleration of ground-based strategic deterrent program and 
         long-range standoff weapon program (sec. 1663)

     require the Under Secretary of Defense for Acquisition and 
     Sustainment, in consultation with the Secretary of the Air 
     Force, to develop and implement plans to accelerate the 
     development, procurement, and fielding of the Ground Based 
     Strategic Deterrent (GBSD) program and the Long-Range 
     Standoff cruise missile program. For the GBSD, the provision 
     would require the plans, when executed, to recapitalize the 
     full intercontinental ballistic missile system without 
     phasing or splitting the program. For both programs, the 
     provision would require the plans to assess the benefits, 
     risks, feasibility, costs, and cost savings of various 
     options for accelerating the programs.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes.

     Prohibition on reduction of the intercontinental ballistic 
         missiles of the United States (sec. 1665)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1645) that would 
     prohibit the obligation or expenditure of fiscal year 2019 
     funds to reduce the responsiveness, alert level, or quantity 
     of deployed U.S. intercontinental ballistic missiles to fewer 
     than 400. The provision would provide an exception to this 
     prohibition for activities related to maintenance and 
     sustainment and activities to ensure safety, security, or 
     reliability.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes.

     Administration (NNSA) to jointly establish a program to 
     exchange civilian and military personnel on a temporary basis 
     between the offices of the Department of Defense working on 
     nuclear weapons policy, production, and force structure 
     issues and the Office of the Deputy Administrator for Defense 
     Programs at the NNSA.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes.
       The conferees note that the provision requires the Chairman 
     and the Administrator to provide interim guidance to the 
     congressional defense committees on the implementation of 
     this program not later than 90 days from the date of 
     enactment of this Act, and

[[Page H7533]]

     to implement such guidance not later than 180 days from the 
     date of enactment. The conferees note that a similar 
     initiative could also benefit nuclear nonproliferation 
     efforts across the NNSA and the Department of Defense. 
     Therefore, the conferees direct the Chairman and the 
     Administrator to provide not later than 90 days from the date 
     of enactment a plan to establish a similar program focused on 
     nonproliferation programs in the future.
     Plan to train officers in nuclear command, control, and 
         communications (sec. 1668)
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 1645) that 
     would require the Secretary of Defense, in consultation with 
     the Secretary of the Air Force, the Secretary of the Navy, 
     and the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, to develop a 
     plan to train, educate, manage, and track field-grade 
     military officers in nuclear command, control, and 
     communications. The provision would require the Secretary to 
     submit the plan to the congressional defense committees no 
     later than 180 days from the date of enactment of this Act.

       The House recedes with an amendment that would require to 
     the Secretary to develop the plan in consultation with the 
     Commander, U.S. Strategic Command, in addition to the other 
     officials described above.
     Independent study on options to increase Presidential 
         decision-time regarding nuclear weapons employment (sec. 
         1669)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1647) that would 
     require the Secretary of Defense to enter into a contract 
     with a federally funded research and development center to 
     conduct a study on the potential benefits and risks of 
     reducing the role of the launch-under-attack option in U.S. 
     nuclear weapons planning.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes with amendments that would strike the 
     findings and modify the requirement to a report on options to 
     increase presidential decision-time related to employment of 
     each leg of the nuclear triad.
     Extension of annual report on plan for the nuclear weapons

     U.S. Strategic Command, to complete a plan and initiate 
     development in fiscal year 2019 for a space-based missile 
     defense sensor architecture. This provision would limit 
     obligation or expenditure of funds to initiate the space-
     based missile defense layer program until the plan is 
     submitted to Congress.
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 1660C) 
     that would require the Director of the MDA to commence 
     development of a persistent space-based sensor architecture 
     capable of supporting the ballistic missile defense system, 
     notwithstanding the outcome of the Missile Defense Review. 
     The provision would also require that the Secretary of 
     Defense submit a report, no later than 90 days after the date 
     of enactment of this Act, to the congressional defense 
     committees on the progress of and coordination between MDA, 
     the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA), and 
     Air Force efforts in this area.
       The Senate recedes with an amendment that would require 
     MDA's efforts to develop a space-based sensor architecture 
     for missile defense to be compatible with ongoing efforts 
     within DARPA. Additionally, the amendment would reduce the 
     funding limitation to 15 percent and would require such 
     authorization to be subject to the availability of 
     appropriations.
     Boost phase ballistic missile defense (sec. 1676)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1662) that would 
     require the Director of the Missile Defense Agency to begin a 
     program in fiscal year 2019 to develop boost phase intercept 
     capabilities that are either air-launched or ship-based, are 
     cost-effective, and include a kinetic interceptor.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes with an amendment that would require 
     such authorization to be subject to the availability of

                   Legislative Provisions Not Adopted

     Report on space debris
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1616) that would 
     require the Secretary of Defense, not later than 240 days 
     after the date of the enactment of this Act, to submit to the

       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes.
       The conferees take seriously the risks posed by man-made 
     space debris in low-earth orbit. Accordingly, the conferees 
     direct the Secretary of Defense to provide a briefing not 
     later than 180 days after the date of enactment of this Act 
     to the Committees on Armed Services of the House of 
     Representatives and the Senate, and upon request to the

       The House recedes.
       The conferees note that the administration decision to 
     transfer the background investigation mission for the entire 
     Federal Government introduces significantly increased risk 
     for the Department of Defense. However, the conferees agree 
     that for the sake of efficiency across the government, this 
     decision is logical. The conferees expect that the Department 
     will continue to pursue its focus on modernizing the 
     background investigation function instead of taking over an 
     existing and outdated process. The conferees are committed to 
     continuing to monitor the Department's progress in taking 
     over this new mission over the coming years.

     Defense for Research and Engineering, in coordination with 
     United States Strategic Command, to submit a report to the 
     congressional defense committees, within 90 days of enactment 
     of this Act, on how Government Accountability Office (GAO) 
     report recommendations from GAO-18-324 will be addressed and 
     incorporated into future MDA policy documents to improve 
     technical capability declaration (TCD) and operational 
     capability baseline (OCB) processes to communicate 
     capabilities and limitations when delivering integrated 
     Ballistic Missile Defense spirals. The GAO recommendations to 
     be addressed are as follows: (1) The Under Secretary of 
     Defense for Research and Engineering should ensure that the

     requirements process, and key milestones necessary to issue a 
     TCD, including a requirement that the Assessment Requirements 
     Review be held in such a time frame that it can provide 
     meaningful input to MDA's test plans; and (2) The Under 
     Secretary of Defense for Research and Engineering should 
     ensure that the Director of MDA includes in capability 
     delivery packages, such as the TCD memos and OCB change 
     packages, the following: a. The verification, validation, and 
     accreditation status of the models used in operational ground 
     tests; and b. Modeling and simulation limitations that affect 
     operational ground test results.
     Sense of the Senate on discrimination for missile defense
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 1660B) 
     that would express the sense of the Senate that prioritizing 
     discrimination capabilities to improve missile defense 
     effectiveness against current and future threats is 
     critically important. The provision would also require the 
     Director of the Missile Defense Agency (MDA) to submit a 
     report no later than 90 days after the date of enactment of 
     this Act describing improvements to discrimination required 
     within the missile defense architecture, MDA's plan to 
     rapidly field advanced discrimination capabilities, and an 
     analysis of efforts to address the discrimination challenges 
     of emerging adversary threats.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes.
       The conferees direct the Director of MDA to deliver a 
     report to the congressional defense committees, no later than 
     90 days after the enactment of this Act, to include: (1) Any 
     needed discrimination improvements within the missile defense 
     architecture; (2) MDA's plan to rapidly field advanced 
     discrimination capabilities; and (3) An analysis of efforts 
     to address discrimination challenges against emerging 
     adversary threats, including hypersonic and cruise missiles.
     Assessment of electronic warfare capabilities of Russia and 
         China
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 1661) that 
     would require the Director of the Defense Intelligence Agency 
     to conduct a comprehensive assessment of the electronic 
     warfare capabilities of the Russian Federation and People's 
     Republic of China.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes.

       The conferees direct the Secretary of Defense to provide a 
     report to the Senate and House Committees on Armed Services 
     no later than February 5, 2019, that explains to the 
     committees whether or not a military service within the 
     Department should be designated as executive agent for 
     activities and programs that would enable proper and 
     expedient implementation of Electronic Warfare Battle-
     Management, and Command and Control (EW BMC2) strategy and 
     policy. If the Secretary determines that a military service 
     should be designated as executive agent for EW BMC2, the 
     Secretary should include which Service should be designated 
     as such and the rationale supporting that recommendation. If 
     the Secretary determines that no military service should be 
     designated as executive agent for EW BMC2, the conferees 
     expect the Secretary to explain in the report how strategy, 
     policy and governance for EW BMC2 will be implemented across 
     the Department and Combatant Commands and which entity will 
     be responsible for its effective implementation.

     command, control, and communications (NC3) by requiring the 
     Secretary of Defense to designate a single individual 
     responsible for strategic portfolio management of these and 
     related programs. The provision would also modify the 
     structure of the Council on Oversight of the National 
     Leadership Command, Control, and Communications System to 
     streamline its functions and make the single individual 
     designated by the Secretary the sole Chair.

     by the Chairman are implemented by the Commander of U.S. 
     Strategic Command and others, the conferees expect to see 
     clear improvements in lines of authority and decision-making 
     that result in significant, rather than incremental, 
     improvements over the status quo.

      Title XVII--Review of Foreign Investment and Export Controls

    Subtitle A--Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States

     Short title: Foreign Investment Risk Review Modernization Act 
         of 2018 (sec. 1701)
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 1701) that 
     would establish the short title of this section as ``The 
     Foreign Investment Risk Review Modernization Act of 2018.''
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes with an amendment that would establish 
     ``The Foreign Investment Risk Review Modernization Act of 
     2018,'' the ``Export Controls Act of 2018,'' and the ``Anti-
     Boycott Act of 2018'' in sections 1701-1793 of this Act.
       ``The Foreign Investment Risk Review Modernization Act of 
     2018'' would make updates to terms in the current Committee 
     on Foreign Investment in the United States (CFIUS) statute 
     and add several new terms. Notably, it would expand the 
     purview of CFIUS by explicitly adding four new types of 
     ``covered transactions,'' including: (1) Any non-passive 
     investment by a foreign person in any U.S. business involved 
     in critical infrastructure, the production of critical 
     technologies, or that maintains sensitive personal data that, 
     if exploited, could threaten national security; (2) Any 
     change in a foreign investor's rights regarding a U.S. 
     business; (3) Any other transaction, transfer, agreement or 
     arrangement designed to circumvent or evade CFIUS; and (4) 
     The purchase, lease, or concession by or to a foreign person 
     of certain real estate in close proximity to military or 
     other sensitive national security facilities.
       It would also require CFIUS to provide comments on or 
     accept complete written notices within 10 business days of 
     submission in cases where parties stipulate that a 
     transaction is a covered transaction and allow CFIUS to 
     require a written notice and include copies of all related 
     agreements. Further, it would create the concept of 
     declarations and allow the parties to a transaction to 
     stipulate that it is a covered transaction or foreign 
     government-controlled transaction.
       This Act would also confirm the circumstances under which 
     CFIUS may unilaterally initiate a review, as well as how a 
     transaction attains ``safe harbor'' status; give CFIUS extra 
     time to review each transaction by extending the overall 
     review period from 30 days to 45 days with a 15-day period 
     extension for extraordinary circumstances; require CFIUS to 
     establish a mechanism to identify any covered transactions 
     for which a notice or declaration has not been filed and on 
     which information is reasonably available; provide for 
     greater flexibility regarding the required signatures on 
     certifications regarding transactions; require the Director 
     of National Intelligence, for each National Security Threat 
     Assessment (NSTA), to identify any recognized intelligence 
     collection gaps, update the NSTA upon request by a lead 
     agency for any past cleared transaction involving a 
     mitigation agreement, and submit the NSTA to the Senate 
     Select Committee on Intelligence and House Permanent Select 
     Committee on Intelligence after conclusion of action by 
     CFIUS; enhance collaboration and coordination with U.S. 
     allies and partners by allowing the disclosure of information 
     to any domestic or foreign governmental entity; clarify the 
     15 day requirement for the President to announce a decision 
     to not later than 15 days after the earlier of the date on 
     which the investigation is completed, or the date on which 
     the Committee otherwise refers the transaction to the 
     President; provide that civil action challenges against CFIUS 
     actions and findings may only be brought in the United States 
     Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit; 
     instruct CFIUS regulations to provide that any review of a 
     covered transaction should consider the national security 
     factors enumerated in statute, and as appropriate, require 
     parties to provide information necessary to consider such 
     factors; and require each CFIUS member to designate an 
     Assistant Secretary, appointed by the President by and with 
     the advice and consent of the Senate, or the equivalent 
     thereof, to carry out Committee duties. To address national 
     security risks, it would grant CFIUS the authority to suspend 
     a transaction during a review or investigation; use 
     mitigation agreements and conditions to address situations 
     where the parties have chosen to abandon a transaction 
     without a presidential order; and impose interim mitigation 
     agreements and conditions for national security risks posed 
     by completed transactions while they are undergoing CFIUS 
     review. A modification of the annual report and other 
     reporting requirements is also included along with a 
     requirement for implementation plans within 180 days of 
     enactment of this act with a determination by the President 
     as to whether additional resources are required for CFIUS 
     under the expansion of CFIUS' responsibilities in this Act. 
     Finally, a CFIUS Fund would be established and $20.0 million 
     would be authorized for fiscal years 2019 through 2023.
       The ``Export Controls Act of 2019'' would repeal the Export 
     Administration Act of 1979 (50 U.S.C. 4601 et seq.) (as 
     continued in effect pursuant to the International Emergency 
     Economic Powers Act (IEEPA, 50 U.S.C. 1701 et seq.)) other 
     than sections 11A, 11B, and 11C of such Export Administration 
     Act of 1979 (EAA), and would provide transition provisions to 
     preserve the export control rules and regulations until 
     changed or revoked under the new authority established by 
     this title. It would also require the President to establish 
     controls over the export of certain ``dual-use'' and military 
     items in order to advance the foreign policy and national 
     security of the United States, including a new category of 
     ``emerging and foundational technologies''. The 
     administration of those controls would be delegated to the 
     Secretary of Commerce, Secretary of Defense, Secretary of 
     State, the Director of National Intelligence, and other 
     appropriate Federal agencies. Subject to inter-agency review, 
     the Department of Commerce would be delegated with authority 
     to issue licenses and other authorization for exports. 
     Consistent with existing law, this export control reform 
     would provide the authority to impose criminal and civil 
     penalties for export control violations. It also would 
     provide robust authority to enforce such controls, including 
     the ability to stop unapproved transfers. Congressional 
     oversight would also be strengthened over these controls. The 
     repeal of the EAA would include transition provisions to 
     ensure that all rules, regulations, orders, determinations, 
     licenses, or other administrative measures established under 
     the EAA, or otherwise enforced through Presidential emergency 
     declaration under IEEPA, would remain in effect unless 
     changed or revoked under the new authority established by 
     this title.
       The ``Anti-Boycott Act of 2018'' would incorporate 
     longstanding current law anti-boycott provisions from the 
     expired Export Administration Act of 1979 (50 U.S.C. 4601 et 
     seq.) continued in effect under IEEPA. It would discourage, 
     and in some circumstances, prohibit U.S. companies from 
     furthering or supporting the boycott of Israel sponsored by 
     the Arab League, or certain other countries, including 
     complying with certain requests for information designed to 
     verify compliance with the boycott.

                   Legislative Provisions Not Adopted

     Sense of Congress
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 1702) that 
     would express the sense of the Congress regarding the 
     benefits of foreign investment in the United States and 
     continuing the United States' commitment to open and fair 
     investment policy, the shifting threats to national security 
     and the need to modernize the Committee on Foreign Investment 
     in the United States (CFIUS) and export controls to address 
     those threats, the critical role of CFIUS in protecting 
     national security and need for adequate resources and for 
     more robust international outreach to allies to help them 
     establish their own foreign investment screening regimes, the 
     need to collaborate with allies to develop stronger 
     multilateral export controls, and additional factors CFIUS 
     may consider in reviewing transactions.

     1950 (Public Law 81-774) to update terms pertaining to the 
     Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States (CFIUS) 
     statute and add several new terms. This provision would 
     expand the purview of CFIUS by explicitly adding four new 
     types of covered transactions, including: (1) Any non-passive 
     investment by a foreign person in any U.S. critical 
     technology or critical infrastructure company; (2) Any change 
     in a foreign investor's rights regarding a U.S. business; (3) 
     Any other transaction, transfer, agreement or arrangement 
     designed to circumvent/evade CFIUS; and (4) The purchase, 
     lease, or concession by or to a foreign person of certain 
     real estate in close proximity to military or other 
     sensitive national security facilities. This provision 
     would also allow

            DIVISION B--MILITARY CONSTRUCTION AUTHORIZATIONS

     Summary and explanation of funding tables
       Division B of this Act authorizes funding for military 
     construction projects of the Department of Defense. It 
     includes funding authorizations for the construction and 
     operation of military family housing as well as military 
     construction for the reserve components, the defense 
     agencies, and the North Atlantic Treaty Organization Security 
     Investment Program. It also provides authorization for the 
     base closure accounts that fund military construction, 
     environmental cleanup, and other activities required to 
     implement the decisions in base closure rounds. The tables 
     contained in this Act provide the project-level 
     authorizations for the military construction funding 
     authorized in Division B of this Act and summarize that 
     funding by account.
       The conferees continue to believe in the value and 
     appropriateness of providing a full authorization but 
     incremental authorization of appropriations for certain 
     military construction projects. The conferees believe 
     incremental funding of large and complex military 
     construction projects enables the Department to execute 
     additional infrastructure projects in a fiscal year, enables 
     continuous congressional oversight, and provides

[[Page H7540]]

     opportunities to adjust the authorization of appropriations 
     level for projects should issues arise or requirements change 
     over the course of construction. In instances where the 
     conference agreement provides full authorization but 
     incremental authorization of appropriations for certain 
     military construction projects, the committee expects the 
     Department to award these projects in the year of 
     authorization and not defer award until the full 
     appropriation amount is received.

       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 2001) that would 
     cite division B of this Act as the ``Military Construction

     towers, fire stations, and anti-terrorism and force 
     protection.

     and $419,117,000 for family housing for the Navy and Marine

       The agreement includes authorization of 13 military 
     construction projects that were not included in the budget 
     request but submitted to the congressional defense committees 
     as part of the Navy and Marine Corps' unfunded requirements 
     list. These projects include: $75.6 million for X-Ray Wharf 
     Improvements (Berth 2) at Naval Base Guam, Guam; $51.3 
     million for a 2nd Radio BN Complex, Phase 2 at Camp Lejeune,

     million for Expeditionary Combat Skills Student Berthing at 
     Naval Construction Battalion Center, Mississippi; $21.8 
     million for Missile Magazines at Naval Weapons Station Seal 
     Beach, California; $19.7 million for a Consolidated Fire 
     Station at Naval Station Guantanamo Bay, Cuba; $19.5 million

     Diego, California; $16.6 million for a Supply Warehouse SOI-

       The agreement provides for full authorization and 
     incremental authorization of appropriations in an amount 
     equal to the Department's ability to execute in the year of 
     the authorization of appropriations for the following 
     projects: Pier 8 Replacement at Naval Base San Diego, 
     California; Causeway Boat Channel & Turning Basing at Naval 
     Weapons Station Seal Beach, California; Master Time Clock & 
     Operations Facility at the Naval Observatory, District of 
     Columbia; Machine Gun Range at Joint Region Marianas, Guam;

     for the Secretary of the Navy to carry out projects, with 
     prior notification to the congressional defense committees, 
     to enhance force protection and safety. The conferees 
     recommend the Secretary use this authority to alleviate

     control points, air traffic control towers, fire stations,

       Finally, the agreement does not include authorization of 
     $21.98 million included in the budget request for a TBS Fire 
     Station at Marine Corps Base Quantico, Virginia. The 
     conferees note that this project was authorized in the 
     National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2018 
     (Public Law 115-91) and a subsequent appropriation was 
     included in the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2018 (Public 
     Law 115-141). The conferees do not believe an additional

     the authorization of appropriations for MIT-Lincoln 
     Laboratory (West Lab CSL/MIF) at Hanscom Air Force Base, 
     Massachusetts. In addition, the committee provides full

     for the Secretary of the Air Force to carry out projects,

     and Budget directed the National Geospatial-Intelligence

     created cost increase of $7.6 million due to the delay in

     military construction requirement. In addition, the agreement 
     does not include an authorization of appropriations for 
     Contingency Construction at Unspecified Worldwide Locations, 
     noting that unobligated balances remain available in the

     other Federal programs to assist States and local governments

     and supplement funds to assist State and local governments in 
     addressing deficiencies in community infrastructure. The 
     provision would require that the State or local government 
     contribute not less than 30 percent of the funding for the 
     community infrastructure project. The authority set forth in 
     this provision would expire on September 30, 2023.

     Islands in a report to the congressional defense committees. 
     This section would also prohibit the Department of Defense 
     from carrying out any grant, transfer, cooperative agreement,

     of public infrastructure unless such project is included in 
     the Economic Adjustment Committee report and specifically

       The conferees note the Department already has authority to 
     lease real property that has not been determined excess under 
     title 10 section 2667, United States Code, to include 
     authority to accept types of in-kind consideration. However, 
     the property in question remains in a hopelessly dilapidated 
     and unusable state. The conferees assess that the Department 
     has not managed this particular property in responsible 
     manner, and urges the Department to leverage its entire 
     inventory of surplus but not excess properties in support of 
     sailors, marines, and their families around the world.

   Title XXIX--Overseas Contingency Operations Military Construction

     Summary
       The budget request included $921,420,000 for Overseas 
     Contingency Operations military construction for fiscal year 
     2019.
       The conference agreement includes this amount for Overseas 
     Contingency Operations military construction for fiscal year 
     2019.
       The conference agreement does not include an authorization 
     or an authorization of appropriation for a High-Value 
     Detainee Facility at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba. The conferees 
     believe the Department of Defense did not provide sufficient 
     justification for the need to construct a new, permanent 
     facility with increased capacity and capabilities. In 
     addition, the conferees note that while the current facility 
     may not be ideally configured, it is still capable of meeting 
     current and foreseeable detention requirements.
       As noted earlier in this report, the agreement transferred 
     the following two military construction projects from the 
     base budget request to Title XXIX, Overseas Contingency 
     Operations Military Construction: Flightline

     (42 U.S.C. 2077(b)(2)), on a case-by-case basis as consistent 
     with the national security interests of the United States. 
     The provision would also require that, during a review under 
     section 57b of title 42, United States Code, if such a 
     request is denied, the Department of Energy be told the 
     reasons for denial during interagency review or, if the 
     review period is extended, the reason for this extension, to 
     be reported to the congressional defense committees on an 
     annual basis.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes with an amendment that would strike the 
     subsection related to

[[Page H7548]]

     interagency consultations and clarify that authority 
     regarding approval of technology transfers may not be 
     delegated for technologies related to enrichment and 
     reprocessing of special nuclear material nor for transfers of 
     any technologies to any covered foreign country. The 
     amendment would also clarify the reporting requirement 
     relating to such delegations, remove the sense of the Senate 
     on civil penalties for violations, and remove the requirement 
     for the Secretary of Energy to revise regulations.
       The conferees agree that the Secretary of Energy has the 
     authority to impose civil penalties for violations of section 
     57 b. (2) of the Atomic Energy Act of 1954 (42. U.S.C. 2077 
     (b(2)).
     Extension of enhanced procurement authority to manage supply 
         chain risk (sec. 3117)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 3113) that would 
     extend the authority provided by section 2786 of title 50, 
     United States Code, the authority for the Secretary of Energy 
     to take certain actions with regard to the protection of the 
     supply chain of the Department of Energy, for an additional 5 
     years, to June 30, 2023.
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 3114) that 
     would extend the same authority for an additional 6 years.
       The Senate recedes.
     Hanford waste tank cleanup program (sec. 3118)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 3120B) that 
     would extend the Office of River Protection until 2024.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes.
     Use of funds for construction and project support activities 
         relating to MOX facility (sec. 3119)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 3115) that would 
     require the Secretary of Energy to carry out construction and 
     project support activities relating to the Mixed Oxide Fuel 
     Fabrication Facility with any funds authorized to be 
     appropriated by this Act or otherwise made available for such 
     purposes for fiscal year 2019. The provision would allow the 
     Secretary to waive this requirement if the Secretary submits 
     to the congressional defense committees the matters described 
     under section 3121(b)(1) of the National Defense 
     Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2018 (Public Law 115-91).
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 3118) that 
     would prohibit the Department of Energy from obligating or 
     expending any funds for fiscal year 2019 or prior fiscal 
     years to terminate construction and project support 
     activities at the Mixed Oxide Fuel Fabrication Facility or to 
     convert such facility to be used for any purpose other than 
     its original mission.
       The Senate recedes.
     Plutonium pit production (sec. 3120)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 3120A) that 
     would require the Secretary of Defense to enter into a 
     contract with a federally funded research and development 
     center (FFRDC) to conduct an assessment of the plutonium 
     strategy of the National Nuclear Security Administration 
     (NNSA). In addition, the provision would require the 
     Secretary of Energy to submit to the congressional defense 
     committees not later than 180 days from the date of enactment 
     of this Act a report on the plan for producing plutonium pits 
     31-80 at Los Alamos National Laboratory, in case the MOX 
     facility is not operational and producing pits by 2030. The 
     provision would also require the Secretary of Energy to 
     submit an updated Statement of Mission Need by September 
     2020. Finally, the provision would require the Chairman of 
     the Nuclear Weapons Council to submit annually to the 
     Secretary of Defense, the Administrator for Nuclear Security, 
     and the congressional defense committees a written 
     certification that the plutonium pit production plan of the 
     NNSA is on track to meet the military requirement of 80 pits 
     per year by 2030, the statutory requirements for pit 
     production timelines under section 4219 of the Atomic Energy 
     Defense Act (50 U.S.C. 2538a), and milestones for 
     implementation of the NNSA's plutonium strategy.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes with amendments that would require the 
     Secretary of Defense to consult with the Administrator for 
     Nuclear Security in entering into the contract with the FFRDC 
     and would modify the elements of the assessment. The 
     amendments would also require that the FFRDC have full and 
     direct access to all information related to pit production 
     from the NNSA and from its management and operating 
     contractors. The amendments would further modify the report 
     regarding plutonium pit production at Los Alamos to require 
     the Administrator for Nuclear Security to write the report 
     and to require additional details on the plan to produce 30 
     pits per year by 2026. Finally, the amendments would strike 
     the requirement to submit an updated Statement of Mission 
     Need and add a requirement that the NNSA Director for Cost 
     Estimation and Program Evaluation submit to the congressional 
     defense committees an assessment of the NNSA report on pit 
     production at Los Alamos, including an assessment of the 
     impact of increased ARIES activity in support of the dilute 
     and dispose program on the plutonium pit production mission.
        The conferees note that the Senate report accompanying S. 
     2987 (S. Rept. 115-262) of the John S. McCain National 
     Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2019 required a 
     similar FFRDC assessment. The conferees intend for the 
     requirement in this provision to replace the requirement in 
     the Senate report rather than create a new requirement for 
     another assessment.
       Finally, the conferees direct the Comptroller General of 
     the United States to review the report required by subsection 
     (c)(2) of this provision, specifically the assessment of the 
     effect of increased ARIES activity on the plutonium pit 
     production mission. The Comptroller General shall provide a 
     briefing on this assessment to the House and Senate Armed 
     Services Committees, with the scope of the assessment and the 
     date of the briefing to be determined in consultation with 
     the committees.
     Pilot program on conduct by Department of Energy of 
         background reviews for access by certain individuals to 
         national security laboratories (sec. 3121)
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 3115) that 
     would establish a pilot program for 2 years at the Department 
     of Energy to independently conduct background reviews prior 
     to admitting to national security laboratories citizens of 
     nations on the current sensitive countries list. The 
     provision would require the Federal Bureau of Investigation 
     and the Director of National Intelligence to continue to 
     conduct background reviews under section 4502(a) of the 
     Atomic Energy Defense Act (50 U.S.C. 2652(a)) for the 
     duration of the pilot program.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes.
     Prohibition on availability of funds for programs in Russian 
         Federation (sec. 3122)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 3116) that would 
     prohibit obligation or expenditure of any funds for fiscal 
     year 2019 for atomic energy defense activities to enter into 
     a contract with, or otherwise provide assistance to, the 
     Russian Federation. The provision would also provide for a 
     waiver and would not apply to up to $3.0 million that the 
     Secretary of Energy may make available for the Department of 
     Energy's Russian Health Studies Program.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes.
     Prohibition on availability of funds for research and 
         development of advanced naval nuclear fuel system based 
         on low-enriched uranium (sec. 3123)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 3117) that would 
     prohibit the authorization or expenditure of any funds for 
     fiscal year 2019 for the Department of Energy or the 
     Department of Defense for research and development of an 
     advanced naval nuclear fuel system based on low-enriched 
     uranium (LEU). The provision contains an exception that would 
     authorize, from within amounts made available for fiscal year 
     2019 for defense nuclear nonproliferation, $10.0 million to 
     be made available to the Deputy Administrator for Naval 
     Reactors for LEU activities.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes.
       The conferees note that both Departments' expertise in 
     naval fuel requirements and design resides within the Naval 
     Nuclear Propulsion Program. The conferees believe that funds 
     authorized and appropriated for the purposes of research and 
     design into the use of LEU in naval reactors are best spent 
     in support of Naval Reactors' activities at the Naval Nuclear 
     Laboratory.
     Limitation on availability of funds relating to submission of 
         annual reports on unfunded priorities (sec. 3124)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 3118) that would 
     prohibit the obligation or expenditure of funds authorized to 
     be appropriated from the National Nuclear Security 
     Administration's Federal Salaries and Expenses account for 
     travel and transportation of persons until the Administrator 
     for Nuclear Security submits a report that contains at least 
     one unfunded priority under section 4716 of the Atomic Energy 
     Defense Act (50 U.S.C. 2756). This provision would apply to 
     each year from fiscal years 2020 through 2024.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes with an amendment that would modify the 
     prohibition such that not more than 65 percent of funds may 
     be obligated or expended from this account until the report 
     described above is submitted.

                     Subtitle C--Plans and Reports

     Modifications to cost-benefit analyses for competition of 
         management and operating contracts (sec. 3131)
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 3121) that 
     would modify the requirement for the Administrator of the 
     National Nuclear Security Administration (NNSA) to provide a 
     report to the congressional defense committees containing a 
     cost-benefit analysis of competition of management and 
     operating contracts for NNSA laboratories and production 
     plants following each award of such a contract such that the 
     report would be due 30 days after the transition to a new 
     contract is complete.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes with amendments that would extend the 
     requirement through 2022 and add a requirement for the 
     Administrator to provide a briefing no later than 7 days 
     after the release of a request for proposal for any contract 
     to manage and operate an

[[Page H7549]]

     NNSA facility. This briefing would provide a preliminary 
     estimate of the costs and benefits of competing such 
     contract. The amendment would also make a technical change 
     that would transfer the entire requirement from the National 
     Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2013 (Public Law 
     112-239) into title 50 of United States Code.
     Nuclear forensics analyses (sec. 3132)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 3120) that would 
     require the Secretary of Energy, in consultation with the 
     Secretary of Defense and the Secretary of Homeland Security, 
     to seek to enter into an agreement with the National Academy 
     of Sciences for an independent assessment of nuclear forensic 
     analyses conducted by the Federal Government.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes with a technical amendment.
     Review of defense environmental cleanup activities (sec. 
         3133)
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 3122) that 
     would require the Secretary of Energy to coordinate with the 
     National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine on 
     a review of the cleanup activities in the Office of 
     Environmental Management.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes with an amendment to include 
     recommendations in the assessment that would enhance 
     effectiveness and efficiency within the program.
     Whistleblower protections (sec. 3134)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 3132) that would 
     contain findings and express the sense of Congress regarding 
     nuclear safety and require the Secretary of Energy to impose 
     civil penalties on contractors, subcontractors, and suppliers 
     for violations of Department of Energy rules, regulations, 
     and orders relating to nuclear safety and radiation 
     protection. The provision would also require the Secretary to 
     define, within 120 days of enactment of this Act, what 
     constitutes evidence of a chilled work environment with 
     respect to employees and contractors making a whistleblower 
     complaint and would require an annual congressional 
     notification on the imposition of any penalties related to 
     violations of rules, regulations, and orders by contractors, 
     subcontractors, and suppliers.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes with amendments that would strike the 
     findings, strike the requirement to impose civil penalties as 
     the Secretary or the Administrator determines appropriate and 
     instead add it to the sense of Congress, and clarify the 
     reporting requirement related to a chilled work environment.
     Implementation of Nuclear Posture Review by National Nuclear 
         Security Administration (sec. 3135)
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 3125) that 
     would require the Administrator of the National Nuclear 
     Security Administration (NNSA) to submit to the congressional 
     defense committees a report on the implementation of the 2018 
     Nuclear Posture Review (NPR) by the NNSA. The report would 
     identify specific actions associated with the NPR, including 
     the office of primary responsibility for each action and key 
     milestones associated with it.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes with an amendment that would require the 
     report to include the estimated cost of an action when 
     available.
     Survey of workforce of national security laboratories and 
         nuclear weapons production facilities (sec. 3136)
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 3123) that 
     would require the Administrator of the National Nuclear 
     Security Administration (NNSA) to submit to the congressional 
     defense committees a proposal to conduct a survey, similar to 
     the Federal Employee Viewpoint Survey, of the employees of 
     the NNSA laboratories and production plants.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes with an amendment that would add a 
     requirement for the Administrator to consider in her report 
     the value of the survey in light of other tools for gathering 
     similar data on workforce issues in order to avoid 
     unnecessary duplication.
     Elimination of certain reports (sec. 3137)
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 3124) that 
     would eliminate certain reporting requirements for the 
     Department of Energy's Environmental Management Office.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes with an amendment to preserve the future-
     years defense environmental management plan and to keep the 
     certification requirements for waste shipments to the Waste 
     Isolation Pilot Plant until fiscal year 2019.

                       Subtitle D--Other Matters

     Acceleration of replacement of cesium blood irradiation 
         sources (sec. 3141)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 3119) that would 
     require the Administrator for the National Nuclear Security 
     Administration (NNSA) to ensure that the goal of the Cesium 
     Irradiator Replacement Program and the Offsite Source 
     Recovery Program is the elimination of the use in the United 
     States of blood irradiation devices that rely on cesium 
     chloride by December 31, 2027.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes with an amendment that would require the 
     Administrator for NNSA to identify in a reporting requirement 
     the disposal pathway for cesium chloride sources.
     Sense of Congress regarding compensation of individuals 
         relating to uranium mining and nuclear testing (sec. 
         3142)
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 3122) that would 
     state the sense of Congress that the United States should 
     compensate and recognize all of the miners, workers, 
     downwinders, and others suffering from the effects of uranium 
     mining and nuclear testing carried out during the Cold War.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes with an amendment that would make a 
     series of related findings regarding the Radiation Exposure 
     Compensation Act (Public Law 101-426) and the Energy 
     Employees Occupational Illness Compensation Program Act of 
     2000 (Public Law 106-398). The amendment would also 
     acknowledge that, as of the date of enactment of this Act, 
     more than 150,231 claims have been paid out for a total of 
     $17.4 billion in lump sum compensation and medical expenses 
     under these two Acts.

                   Legislative Provisions Not Adopted

     Security clearance for dual nationals employed by National 
         Nuclear Security Agency
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 3111) that would 
     authorize the Secretary of Energy to apply additional 
     security reviews to dual citizens seeking positions that 
     require access to highly classified information.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes.
       The conferees expect an appropriate level of vetting of all 
     personnel with access to classified information, and 
     encourage the Secretary to pay particular attention to the 
     vetting of dual nationals.
     Manufacturing Trades Education Grant Program
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 3120C) that 
     would authorize the Secretary of Energy to establish the 
     Manufacturing Trades Education Grant Program.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The House recedes.
       The conferees recognize the importance of technical skills-
     based training, including apprenticeship and pre-
     apprenticeship programs, and supports efforts to strengthen 
     these programs. The conferees encourage further work with the 
     Secretary of Energy on these efforts, and encourage the 
     Secretary to continue to use such programs to further the 
     missions of the Department of Energy and National Nuclear 
     Security Administration.
     Clarification of roles and authorities of National Nuclear 
         Security Administration
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 3111) that 
     would clarify the roles and authorities of the National 
     Nuclear Security Administration (NNSA) through a series of 
     amendments to the National Nuclear Security Administration 
     Act (50 U.S.C. Ch. 41) and the Atomic Energy Defense Act (50 
     U.S.C. Ch. 42). The provision would also make several 
     technical corrections to the Atomic Energy Defense Act and 
     remove the cap imposed on the number of full-time equivalent 
     federal employees at the NNSA by section 3241A of the NNSA 
     Act (50 U.S.C. 2441a).
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes.
       The conferees note that similar legislation was considered 
     in the course of the drafting of the National Defense 
     Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2013 (Public Law 112-239). 
     The statement of managers accompanying that Act noted that 
     there was ``widespread recognition that the current system 
     for governance, management, and oversight of the nuclear 
     security enterprise is broken.'' The same statement noted 
     similar conclusions made by the 2009 Congressional Commission 
     on the Strategic Posture of the United States and several 
     other bipartisan or nonpartisan organizations. Additional 
     studies and commissions have agreed in the years since.
       The National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2013 
     also created a bipartisan advisory commission to provide 
     ``actionable recommendations that directly address the host 
     of systemic problems identified by previous studies and by 
     the conferees,'' later known as the Augustine-Mies Panel. In 
     2014, this panel recommended a sweeping series of major 
     changes at NNSA and the Department of Energy more broadly, 
     including renaming the Department to be the ``Department of 
     Energy and Nuclear Security,'' more fully integrating the 
     NNSA into the Department, elevating the NNSA Administrator to 
     the level of Deputy Secretary, and other actions to address 
     deep-rooted cultural problems. The conferees note that a lack 
     of consensus among the Department and the many congressional 
     committees of jurisdiction prevented most of the major 
     recommendations from being implemented, while others have 
     languished in the bureaucracy or have been implemented 
     without sufficient efforts to measure success. The conferees 
     appreciate the work of the ongoing joint National Academies 
     of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine

[[Page H7550]]

     (NAS) and National Academy of Public Administration (NAPA) 
     panel created by the National Defense Authorization Act for 
     Fiscal Year 2016 (Public Law 114-92) to assess the NNSA's and 
     the Department's progress in implementing prior 
     recommendations, and note that the panel's most recent 
     interim report concludes that activities to implement prior 
     reform recommendations have not been ``rooted in an adequate 
     foundation of strategic thinking.''
       The conferees note that the Augustine-Mies Panel concluded 
     that, if ``significant progress [was] not made within the 
     next two years,'' the ``only remaining course of action--and 
     a clearly inferior one--is to remove [NNSA] from what is now 
     the Department of Energy and establish it as an autonomous, 
     independent organization.''
       The conferees note that almost 4 years have elapsed since 
     the Augustine-Mies Panel made its recommendations, and almost 
     6 years have elapsed since the 2013 statement of managers 
     described the nuclear security enterprise as ``broken.'' 
     While disagreement remains with some of the specific 
     conclusions of the panel, the conferees have not witnessed 
     significant progress--only ``changes on the margins,'' as 
     anticipated by the 2013 conferees. Continued cost overruns on 
     major projects, critical capital acquisition decisions mired 
     in dispute, ongoing safety and security concerns, and delayed 
     infrastructure modernization projects indicate that 
     significant progress has not been made.
       The conferees expect that the joint NAS/NAPA panel will 
     conclude its work in 2020. Rather than allowing the panel's 
     reports and recommendations to languish along with over two 
     decades of studies and commissions on this subject, the 
     conferees believe that, at that time, the appropriate 
     committees must work with the Department and the NNSA to 
     consider major reforms to the governance of the nuclear 
     security enterprise, but stress that a return to previous, 
     failed models of organization and management are unlikely to 
     be an acceptable option.
       Finally, the conferees also note that a significant 
     recommendation of the Augustine-Mies Panel was to ``solidify 
     Cabinet Secretary ownership of the mission'' of the NNSA. As 
     long as the NNSA remains part of the Department of Energy 
     under the current construct of the NNSA Act, the conferees 
     expect appropriate levels of engagement by the Secretary of 
     Energy, the Deputy Secretary of Energy, and the Administrator 
     for Nuclear Security with the committees of jurisdiction on 
     priority atomic energy defense programs to ensure that the 
     NNSA meets the military requirements set by the Department of 
     Defense while making efficient and responsible use of 
     taxpayer dollars.
     National Nuclear Security Administration Personnel System
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 3112) that 
     would make permanent the personnel demonstration project 
     carried out by the National Nuclear Security Administration 
     since 2008.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The Senate recedes.
     Assessment regarding eligibility for compensation for 
         compensable diseases under Radiation Exposure 
         Compensation Act
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1087) that would 
     require the National Cancer Institute and the Centers for 
     Disease Control and Prevention to assess the application of

     would, among other differences with the House bill, clarify 
     that the program shall be implemented upon consultation with 
     the maritime academies and to the extent feasible with the 
     consent of the maritime academies.
       The House recedes with an amendment that would, subject to

     allow the Commander of the MSC to waive the MSC-related 
     requirements at any time if the Commander determines such 
     placement would create an undue burden on the vessel. This 
     provision would not affect the discretion of the Secretary to 
     determine whether to place a USMMA cadet on a vessel; the 
     Secretary would retain discretion to determine whether a 
     cadet is available to be placed on an MSP or MSC vessel. The 
     provision also would not affect the authority of the Coast 
     Guard regarding a vessel security plan approved under section 
     70103 of title 46, United States Code. Finally, the provision
