 EXPLANATORY MATERIAL STATEMENT SUBMITTED BY MR. SMITH OF WASHINGTON, 
CHAIR OF THE HOUSE COMMITTEE ON ARMED SERVICES, ON H. RES. 1512, JAMES 
   M. INHOFE NATIONAL DEFENSE AUTHORIZATION ACT FOR FISCAL YEAR 2023

       The following consists of the explanatory material to 
     accompany the James M. Inhofe National Defense Authorization 
     Act for Fiscal Year 2023.
       Section 5 of the Act specifies that this explanatory 
     statement shall have the same effect with respect to the 
     implementation of this legislation as if it were a joint 
     explanatory statement of a committee of conference.
       In this joint explanatory statement, the provisions of H.R. 
     7900, the House-passed version of the National Defense 
     Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2023, are generally 
     referred to as ``the House bill''. The provisions of Senate 
     amendment No. 5499, as modified, to H.R. 7900, are generally 
     referred to as ``the Senate amendment''. The final form of 
     the agreements reached during negotiations between the House 
     and the Senate are referred to as ``the agreement''.
     Disclosure of earmarks and congressionally directed spending 
         items
       Although not required by the Rules of the House of 
     Representatives, the explanatory statement includes a table 
     that discloses congressional earmarks as defined in paragraph 
     (e) of clause 9 of rule XXI of the Rules of the House of 
     Representatives that are contained in the bill at the request 
     of a Member of the House of Representatives. Neither the bill 
     nor the explanatory statement contain any limited tax 
     benefits or limited tariff benefits as defined in paragraphs 
     (f) or (g) of clause 9 of rule XXI.
     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 2023 was $802.4 billion. Of this amount, $772.5 
     billion was requested for Department of Defense programs, 
     $29.5 billion was requested for national security programs in 
     the Department of Energy and the Defense Nuclear Facilities 
     Safety Board, and $378 million for defense-related 
     activities.
       The agreement would authorize $847.3 billion in fiscal year 
     2023, including $816.7 billion for Department of Defense 
     programs, $30.3 billion for national security programs in the 
     Department of Energy and the Defense Nuclear Facilities 
     Safety Board, and $378 million for defense-related 
     activities.
       The two tables preceding the detailed program adjustments 
     in division D of the accompanying joint explanatory statement 
     summarize the discretionary authorizations in the agreement 
     and the equivalent budget authority levels for fiscal year 
     2023 defense programs.
     Sec. 4--Budgetary effects of this Act
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1002) that would 
     state the budgetary effects of this Act for the purpose of 
     complying with the Statutory Pay-As-You-Go Act of 2010 
     (Public Law 111-139).
       The Senate amendment contained a similar provision (sec. 
     4).
       The agreement includes the Senate provision.

            DIVISION A--DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE AUTHORIZATIONS

                          Title I--Procurement

              Subtitle A--Authorization of Appropriations

     Sec. 101--Authorization of appropriations
       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 an identical provision (sec. 
     101).
       The agreement includes this provision.

                       Subtitle B--Army Programs

     Sec. 111--Limitations on production of Extended Range Cannon 
         Artillery howitzers
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 111) that 
     would require the post-prototype production strategy for 
     Extended Range Cannon Artillery howitzers to be based on a 
     full and open competitive approach that considers the 
     comparative cost and value of a new-build versus Paladin-
     modification production approach. The provision would require 
     the Secretary of the Army to certify compliance of the 
     acquisition strategy and provide a briefing to the 
     congressional defense committees prior to issuing Request for 
     Proposals for post-prototype procurement.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The agreement includes the Senate provision with a 
     clarifying amendment.

                       Subtitle C--Navy Programs

     Sec. 121--Requirements relating to EA-18G aircraft of the 
         Navy
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 111) that would 
     require the Secretary of the Navy to maintain a minimum 
     quantity of EA-18G aircraft capabilities to meet certain 
     requirements.
       The Senate amendment contained a similar provision (sec. 
     129) that would require the Secretary of the Navy to retain 
     all EA-18G aircraft, transfer EA-18G aircraft in 
     expeditionary squadrons to the Navy Reserve, and establish 
     joint service expeditionary, land-based electronic attack 
     squadrons with the Air National Guard or Air Force Reserves.
       The agreement includes the Senate provision with an 
     amendment that would require the Secretary of the Navy to 
     maintain the EA-18G fleet through fiscal year 2027, and, 
     jointly with the Secretary of the Air Force, submit a report 
     within 180 days of enactment of this Act on a strategy and 
     execution plan to continuously and effectively meet airborne 
     electronic attack training and combat employment requirements 
     of the joint force. The strategy and execution plan shall, at 
     a minimum, include the establishment or continuation of one 
     or more joint service expeditionary, land-based electronic 
     attack squadrons to equal or exceed the capacity and 
     capability of such squadrons at currently existing basing 
     locations. The plan should comprise integration and 
     utilization of both reserve and active-duty component forces 
     and resources within both military departments.
     Sec. 122--Navy shipbuilding workforce development special 
         incentive
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 126) that 
     would establish a Navy shipbuilding workforce development 
     initiative.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The agreement includes the Senate provision with an 
     amendment that retitles the initiative as a special incentive 
     for workforce development, modifies the minimum amount for 
     special incentive funding, provides waiver authority to the 
     Secretary of the Navy, and expands the list of entities 
     authorized to participate.

[[Page H9426]]

       We believe that expanded incentives and investments in 
     workforce development, including through leveraging existing 
     programs established by local workforce development boards, 
     will have the potential to increase capacity, effectiveness, 
     and efficiency across all Navy new construction shipyards. 
     These incentives and investments should focus not only on 
     recruiting and training new workers, but also on retaining 
     the existing workforce as a means to grow all experience-
     levels across these shipyards.
     Sec. 123--Extension of prohibition on availability of funds 
         for Navy port waterborne security barriers
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 127) that 
     would extend the prohibition on availability of funds for 
     purchasing Navy waterborne security barriers.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The agreement includes the Senate provision.
     Sec. 124--Limitation on authority to modify capabilities and 
         fleet configuration of E-6B aircraft
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 128) that 
     would prohibit the Secretary of the Navy from taking any 
     action that would prevent the Navy from maintaining the fleet 
     of E-6B aircraft in the configuration and capability in 
     effect as of the date of the enactment of this Act, until the 
     date on which the Chair of the Joint Requirements Oversight 
     Council certifies in writing to the congressional defense 
     committees that the replacement capability for the E-6B would 
     be fielded at the same time or before the retirement of the 
     E-6B, and would result in equal or greater capability 
     available to the commanders of the combatant commands.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The agreement includes the Senate provision with an 
     amendment that would add an exception.
     Sec. 125--Multiyear procurement authority for Arleigh Burke 
         class destroyers
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 112) that would 
     provide multiyear procurement authority for up to 15 Flight 
     III Arleigh Burke class destroyers. The House bill also 
     contained a provision (sec. 113) that would authorize the 
     procurement of an additional Arleigh Burke class destroyer 
     and the use of incremental funding for such contract.
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 122) that 
     would also provide multiyear procurement authority for up to 
     15 Flight III Arleigh Burke class destroyers.
       The agreement includes the Senate provision with an 
     amendment that would: (1) Prevent the Secretary of the Navy 
     from modifying a contract if the modification would increase 
     the target price of the destroyer by more than 10 percent 
     above the target price; and (2) Require the Secretary of the 
     Navy to ensure that one or more of the contracts includes 
     pre-priced option ships, such that the sum of the base 
     quantity of ships plus the pre-priced options ships is equal 
     to 15 destroyers.
       We believe that the DDG Flight III destroyer is the most 
     capable large surface combatant in the worldwide inventory of 
     the Department of Defense, recognize that the Department 
     plans to retire 18 large surface combatants over the next 5 
     years and yet procure only 9 new large surface combatants 
     during the same period, and urge the Department to maximize 
     savings and provide stability to the large surface combatant 
     industrial base through the use of multiyear procurement 
     contracts for the maximum number of ships authorized by this 
     provision.
     Sec. 126--Procurement authority for Ship-to-Shore Connector 
         program
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 114) that would 
     authorize the Secretary of the Navy to enter into one or more 
     contracts for up to 25 Ship-to-Shore Connector craft and 
     associated equipment.
       The Senate amendment contained a similar provision (sec. 
     123) that would authorize one or more block buy contracts for 
     up to 10 Ship-to-Shore Connector craft and specify certain 
     certifications required for entry into such contracts.
       The agreement includes the Senate provision with an 
     amendment that would modify the number of Ship-to-Shore 
     Connector craft that the Secretary of the Navy may enter into 
     contracts for to up to 25.
     Sec. 127--Procurement authority for CH-53K heavy-lift 
         helicopter program
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 115) that would 
     authorize the Secretary of the Navy to enter into one 
     contract for procurement of up to 30 CH-53K helicopters and 
     one contract for procurement of up to 90 engines for the CH-
     53K during fiscal years 2023 and 2024.
       The Senate amendment contained a similar provision (sec. 
     130) that would require certain certifications by the 
     Secretary of Defense before the Navy could sign such 
     contracts.
       The agreement includes the Senate provision with a 
     technical amendment.
     Sec. 128--Procurement authorities for John Lewis-class fleet 
         replenishment oiler ships
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 124) that 
     would allow the Secretary of the Navy to enter into one or 
     more contracts for the procurement of not more than eight 
     John Lewis-class fleet replenishment oiler ships.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The agreement includes the Senate provision.
     Sec. 129--Procurement authorities for certain amphibious 
         shipbuilding programs

     authorize the Secretary of the Navy to enter into one or more 
     contracts for procuring up to five amphibious ships.
       The House bill amendment contained no similar provision.
       The agreement includes the Senate provision with an 
     amendment that would have the authority expire on September 
     30, 2026.
     Sec. 130--Contracts for design and construction of the DDG(X) 
         destroyer program
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 121) that 
     would prescribe certain aspects of the next large surface 
     combatant, the DDG(X) destroyer program, and encourage the 
     Secretary of the Navy to implement an acquisition strategy 
     for the DDG(X) based on a collaborative design, development, 
     and production approach between the Government and industry.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The agreement includes the Senate provision with an 
     amendment that would modify the language to: (1) Make such 
     prescribed aspects contingent on certain actions by the 
     milestone decision authority; (2) Expand the DDG(X) 
     collaborative effort during the design and development phase 
     of the program to include a broader range of contractors; and 
     (3) Limit the allocation for ship construction to one vessel 
     per yard rather than up to two vessels per yard.
     Sec. 131--Tomahawk and Standard Missile-6 capability on FFG-
         62 class vessels
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 125) that 
     would require the Secretary of the Navy to ensure FFG-62 
     class vessels are capable of carrying and employing Tomahawk 
     cruise missiles before accepting delivery of the vessels.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The agreement includes the Senate provision with an 
     amendment that would modify the requirement to exempt the 
     first vessel in the FFG-62 class, instead requiring the 
     integration of both the Tomahawk and the SM-6 on the second 
     and subsequent vessels in the class prior to each vessel's 
     first deployment.
     Sec. 132--Report on advance procurement for CVN-82 and CVN-83
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 119) that would

     congressional defense committees by February 1, 2023, a 
     report on the plan of the Navy for advance procurement for 
     the aircraft carriers designated CVN-82 and CVN-83.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision. 
     However, the Senate report accompanying S. 4543 (S. Rept. 
     117-130) of the James M. Inhofe National Defense 
     Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2023 included similar 
     direction to the Secretary of the Navy to produce a similar 
     report.
       The agreement includes the House provision with an 
     amendment that would adjust the deadline for the submission 
     of the required report to March 1, 2023.
       We would view a combined report, incorporating all required 
     elements of both the House provision, as amended, and the 
     Senate report and provided to the congressional defense 
     committees not later than March 1, 2023, as satisfying the 
     requirements of both this Act and the Senate report.
     Sec. 133--Quarterly briefings on the CH-53K King Stallion 
         helicopter program
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 117) that would 
     require the Secretary of the Navy to provide to the Committee 
     on Armed Services of the House of Representatives quarterly 
     briefings on the cost, schedule, and testing of the CH-53K 
     helicopter program through fiscal year 2024.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The agreement includes the House provision with an 
     amendment that would include the Committee on Armed Services 
     of the Senate as a recipient of the quarterly briefings.

                     Subtitle D--Air Force Programs

     Sec. 141--Modification of inventory requirements for aircraft

     aircraft from Primary Mission Aircraft Inventory to Backup 
     Aircraft Inventory in the Air Force Guard and Reserve. The 
     House bill also contained a provision (sec. 124) that would 
     strike subsection (b) of section 137 of the National Defense 
     Authorization 22 Act for Fiscal Year 2022 (Public Law 117-
     81), eliminating a restriction on the number of tanker 
     retirements the Secretary

     establishment of a formal training unit for such aircraft.
       The Senate amendment contained a similar provision (sec. 
     143) that would prevent the Air Force from retiring any F-22 
     aircraft until that Air Force had produced: (1) A detailed 
     plan showing that the combat capability at operational units 
     would not be degraded if the Air Force were to retire all F-
     22 Block 20 aircraft; and (2) A report on how the Secretary 
     intends to avoid diminishing the combat effectiveness of F-22 
     aircraft; exacerbating F-22 availability concerns, and 
     complicating F-22 squadron maintenance issues.
       The agreement includes the House provision (sec. 123) with 
     an amendment that would: (1) Delete the requirements to 
     upgrade all Block 20 aircraft; (2) Add a requirement that the 
     Secretary of the Air Force submit a report on a realistic 
     strategy and execution plan to conduct formal training for F-

     manufacturer of the F-22, on the proposed cost estimates and 
     schedules of milestones, events and activities required to 
     upgrade Block 20 F-22 aircraft to a capability configuration 
     comparable to or exceeding the existing or planned 
     configuration of Block 30/35 F-22 aircraft.
       We also agree that the Secretary of the Air Force should 
     provide a report on plans for basing of F-22 aircraft, as 
     well as the establishment of a formal training unit for such 
     aircraft by not later than April 30, 2023.

     Air Force Integrated Technology Demos line (Research, 
     Development,

[[Page H9429]]

     Test, and Evaluation Air Force, line 16) contained a decrease 
     of $15.0 million for insufficient justification.
       In section 4201 of division D of the Senate amendment, the 
     Future Air Force Integrated Technology Demos line (Research, 
     Development, Test, and Evaluation Air Force, line 16) 
     contained a decrease of $50.0 million for program reduction.
       The agreement includes a reduction in the Future Air Force 
     Integrated Technology Demos line by $50.0 million.
       We note that several U.S. Air Force programs are funded 
     under this line, including the three Air Force Vanguard 
     programs: Golden Horde, Skyborg, and the Navigation 
     Technology Satellite-3 (NTS-3) program. There remains concern 
     about how the Air Force is planning, budgeting, and executing 
     their Vanguard Programs, and therefore, the Air Force is 
     directed to submit with their Fiscal Year 2024 budget request 
     detailed funding information, including future year funding 
     details and plans, for these programs. We are also concerned 
     that these large efforts have been funded out of a generally 
     flat top-line budget for science and technology funds within 
     the Air Force, effectively reducing other science and 
     technology efforts at the expense of the Vanguard programs. 
     Additionally, consistent with previously expressed views of 
     the Committees on Armed Services of the Senate and the House 
     of Representatives, the U.S. Air Force is encouraged to avoid 
     applying this general reduction to programs that are 
     approaching critical milestones, such as the NTS-3 program.

     property or technical data rights. This is particularly 
     apparent in the Army's interest in artificial intelligence, 
     machine learning, and operator machine interfaces for robotic 
     or optionally manned systems. We are aware of the Army's 
     efforts and progress over the years with common controllers 
     or interfaces and common operating software for tactical 
     robotic technologies for which the operator and machine 
     interfaces are critically important. We are also aware that 
     there is significant commercial interest in operator machine 
     interfaces for a variety of technologies. We are interested 
     to learn if there are military application opportunities for 
     technical improvement and cost savings related to leveraging 
     existing commercial investment and capability in operator 
     machine interface technology.
       Accordingly, we direct the Assistant Secretary of the Army 
     for Acquisition, Logistics, and Technology to submit a report

     committees on the results of a market survey to identify 
     commercially available operator machine interface hardware 
     and software, if any, with the potential to meet military 
     requirements. The market survey required shall include an 
     assessment of potential partnerships with industry to achieve 
     technology improvements and life-cycle cost savings with 
     operator machine interface hardware and software.
     Pilot program on research and development of plant-based

       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 222) that would 
     direct the Secretary of the Navy to establish a pilot program 
     to provide plant-based protein options to members of the 
     Navy.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The agreement does not include this provision.
       We believe that the Secretary of the Navy has the authority 
     to conduct this pilot program if the Secretary determines 
     that it is in the best interest of the Navy.
     Allowable uses of funds under the Commercial Weather Data 
         Pilot Program of the Air Force
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 223) that would 
     allow the Air Force to use funds authorized to be 
     appropriated by this Act or otherwise made available for 
     fiscal year 2023 for the Commercial Weather Data Pilot 
     Program, only for the piloting and demonstration of radio 
     occultation data for use in weather models.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The agreement does not include this provision.
       We recognize the importance of global positioning system 
     (GPS) Radio Occultation as a mature and emerging commercial 
     form of data for military operations for environmental 
     sensing and the forecasting of weather. We further applaud 
     the transition of Radio Occultation from an emerging research 
     and development field to one that can be viewed as a 
     commercially, operationally, and scientifically viable 
     technology. Given the maturity of this technology and its 
     commercial viability to purchase data from existing satellite 
     platforms, we encourage the Department of the Air Force to 
     budget for the future year's acquisition of such data through 
     Operations and Maintenance accounts on a predictable basis so 
     it can be widely used across the entire Department of 
     Defense.

     operations of the Armed Force.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The agreement does not include this provision.
       We note that in the Senate report accompanying S. 4543 (S. 
     Rept. 117-130) of the James M. Inhofe National Defense 
     Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2023, the Secretary of 
     Defense was directed to provide a report on the investments 
     in model-based systems engineering (MBSE) efforts across the 
     Department of Defense and a plan for establishing a 
     coordinating mechanism to guide future investments and 
     support adoption of MBSE into programs. We support the 
     Department's interest in MBSE approaches and tools to help 
     improve the rigor and application of digital tools for 
     systems engineering practices through reusable and extensible 
     systems engineering artifacts.

     businesses that are developing technology that

[[Page H9432]]

     the Secretary considers necessary to support the 
     modernization of the Department of Defense and national 
     security priorities.
       The Senate amendment contained a similar provision (sec. 
     861).
       The agreement does not include these provisions.
       We recognize that the Department is making strides in 
     engaging academia and industry to develop, mature, and deploy 
     critical emerging technologies to support Department of 
     Defense warfighters. While many of the funding tools 
     necessary to make the innovation ecosystem work effectively 
     for both the Department and the private sector exist, 
     coordination and synchronization to effectively leverage 
     these mechanisms is still a challenge. However, state-
     directed capital investment by China into defense-relevant 
     technologies continues to dwarf similar capital flows by U.S. 
     companies. Additional mechanisms to encourage private capital 
     investment in the defense ecosystem are necessary, 
     particularly given the desire of U.S. capital investors to 
     engage in this sector. The Committees on Armed Services of 
     the Senate and the House of Representatives have been 
     committed to finding innovative ways to involve private 
     capital at the Department to accelerate the delivery of 
     capability to the warfighter at lower cost, including through 
     versions of these provisions.
       However, efforts to leverage private capital in the defense 
     ecosystem implicate Congressional Budget Office (CBO) rules 
     with regard to third-party financing of Federal projects. 
     While we believe that versions of these provisions create no 
     cost or liability for the U.S. government, we are unable to 
     include them in the agreement due to CBO's determination that 
     these technologies would be ``under a significant degree of 
     federal control'' and thus increase direct spending.
       We look forward to continued discussion with all 
     stakeholders of further attempts to leverage private capital 
     for national security purposes.
     Funding for development of measures to prevent infections 
         caused by severe fractures

     program element for the multi-medicine manufacturing platform 
     program under the accounts of the Office of Naval Research in 
     the materials submitted in support of the budget of the 
     President.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The agreement does not include this provision
       We are aware that the Office of Naval Research's multi-
     medicine manufacturing program shows significant progress 
     towards ensuring access to essential medications for deployed 
     forces, and we encourage robust support for the effort in 
     future budget submissions.

     including alternative protein.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The agreement does not include this provision.
       We note that the matters raised in this provision are 
     addressed elsewhere in this Act.
     Report on efforts to increase the participation of 
         Historically Black Colleges and Universities and other 
         minority-serving institutions in the research and 
         development activities of the Department of Defense
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 233) that would 
     require the Under Secretary of Defense for Research and 
     Engineering to submit a report on actions that may be carried 
     out to increase the participation of minority-serving 
     institutions in the research, development, test, and 
     evaluation activities of the Department of Defense.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The agreement does not include this provision.
     Independent review and assessment of test and evaluation 
         resource planning
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 235) that would 
     require the Secretary of Defense to enter into an agreement 
     with a federally funded research and development center to 
     conduct an independent review and assessment of the Strategic 
     Plan for Test Resources, as prepared by the Department of 
     Defense's Test Resource Management Center.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The agreement does not include this provision.
       We remain concerned about the adequacy of current and 
     forecast levels of investment into Department of Defense test 
     and evaluation resources, including personnel, 
     infrastructure, and equipment, and in particular with regards 
     to software-intensive, multi-domain, and continuously 
     developed capabilities. We believe the test and evaluation 
     enterprise to be fundamental to the Department's ability to 
     deliver needed capability to the joint force, and note that 
     current planning constructs may not be adequate to meet the 
     dynamic needs of future capabilities. We encourage robust 
     support for test and evaluation (T&E) efforts in future 
     budget submissions, and direct the Test Resource Management 
     Center to use the biennial Strategic Plan for Department of 
     Defense T&E resources to provide a narrative link between the 
     long-term requirements and the shorter-term resource 
     allocations needed to achieve a desired future state for the 
     T&E enterprise.
     Periodic reports on risk distribution within research, 
         development, test, and evaluation activities
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 238) that would 
     require the Secretary of Defense to submit reports on the 
     risk information on the Department of Defense's research 
     portfolio.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The agreement does not include this provision.
       We encourage the Department to take on more measured risk 
     in its research and development portfolio. Specifically, we 
     note that the Department does not adhere to the best practice 
     of grouping research and development efforts into either 
     incremental or disruptive efforts. Absent adoption and 
     implementation of this practice, the Department lacks 
     visibility into the balance of risk versus payoff, especially 
     with regard to the potential for its research and development

     Sec. 553--Agreement by a cadet or midshipman to play 
         professional sport constitutes a breach of agreement to 
         serve as an officer
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 553) that would 
     prohibit service academy athletes from obtaining employment

     commissioned service obligation.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The agreement includes the House provision with an 
     amendment that is consistent with previous Congressional 
     intent that military service academy graduates who meet 
     commissioning standards serve at least 2 years of their 
     active duty service obligation prior to pursuing a career as 
     a professional athlete.
       We note that congressional intent regarding military 
     service academy graduates participating in professional 
     athletics is clear. The National Defense Authorization Act 
     for Fiscal Year 2018 (Public Law 115-91) and the National 
     Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2020 (Public Law 
     116-92) both established the principle that service academy 
     graduates must serve for 2 years on Active Duty before 
     affiliating with the reserves to pursue employment as a 
     professional athlete. The contorted Department of Defense 
     policy governing academy graduates and professional sports 
     deliberately circumvents these recent laws. Service academy 
     appointments are a zero sum game. Every appointment that goes 
     to a graduate who does not complete his or her Active Duty 
     service obligation to pursue professional athletics, could 
     have been awarded to many other qualified young people who 
     would have happily served their country on Active Duty. We 
     hope that the Department will finally adhere to this latest 
     reiteration of congressional intent.

     Code.

     disparities within the application or nomination process.

       The agreement includes the House provision with a modifying 
     amendment.
     Sec. 557--Study and report on professional military education
       The House bill contained provisions (secs. 557, 558, and 
     559) that would establish a consortium of institutions of

     research-based criteria in order to improve military 
     education (sec. 557), establish a consortium of military 
     institutions specifically focused on military education for 
     cybersecurity matters (sec. 558), and create a commission on 
     professional military education (sec. 559).

     would require the Secretary of the Air Force to submit to the 
     Committees on Armed Services of the Senate and the House of 
     Representatives a report on proposed officer personnel

     amend section 8077 of title 10, United States Code, to 
     provide that the Surgeon General of the Navy, while so 
     serving, would hold the grade of O-9.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The agreement does not include this provision.
       Section 502 of the National Defense Authorization Act for 
     Fiscal Year 2017 (Public Law 114-328) repealed the statutory 
     specification of general or flag officer grades for various 
     positions in the Armed Forces, including the positions of the 
     Surgeons General of each service. That provision does not 
     preclude the appointment of these officers in the grades of 
     lieutenant general or vice admiral, and we expect the 
     military departments to manage their limited authorizations 
     for general and flag officers in the best interest of the 
     department involved.
     Grades of certain chiefs of reserve components
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 511) that would

     specification of general or flag officer grade for various 
     positions in the Armed Forces, including the positions of the 
     Chiefs of the reserve component of each service. This 
     provision does not preclude the appointment of these officers 
     in the grades of lieutenant general or vice admiral, and the 
     services have continued to appoint officers to these 
     positions in the grades of lieutenant general or vice 
     admiral.
     Grade of Vice Chief of the National Guard Bureau
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 512) that would

     the consent of the members, to Active Duty to respond to a 
     significant cyber incident.

     Financial assistance program for specially selected members: 
         Army Reserve and Army National Guard
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 514) that would

     limitation to a financial assistance program authorizing the 
     Secretary of the Army to offer financial assistance to 
     certain Reserve Officers' Training Corps students, limiting 
     such program to students in science, technology, engineering, 
     mathematics, and related fields.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The agreement does not include this provision.
       We note our concern that the subject proposal unnecessarily 
     limits an existing financial assistance program in the midst 
     of a historically challenging recruiting environment.
     Requirement of consent of the chief executive officer for 
         certain full-time National Guard duty performed in a

     State, territory, or the District of Columbia for operations 
     or missions conducted in that State, territory, or District 
     of Columbia by the National Guard in a Title 32 status at the

     would amend section 508 of title 32, United States Code, to

     Naval Sea Cadet Corps for such purposes under section 508(d) 
     of title 10, United States Code.
     Divestiture of Tactical Control Party
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 519C) that would 
     prohibit divestiture of Tactical Control Party specialist 
     force structure from the Air National Guard until the Chief

     describing capability gaps and impacts such divestiture would 
     have on Air National Guard force structure.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The agreement does not include this provision.
       We believe no divestiture of any Tactical Control Party 
     specialist force structure from the Air National Guard should 
     occur until the Secretary of the Air Force, in consultation 
     with the Chief of the National Guard Bureau, provides a 
     report to the Committees of Armed Services of the Senate and 
     House of Representatives describing:
       (1) The capability gaps caused by divestiture of Tactical 
     Control Party force structure from the Air National Guard and 
     its impact on the Department of Defense to execute the 
     National Defense Strategy; and
       (2) The impacts of such divestiture to the operational 
     capabilities of the Army to include the active and reserve 
     components and National Guard.
       We therefore direct the Secretary of the Air Force to 
     provide such report by not later than December 1, 2023.

     the purpose and solemnity of selective service during times 
     of war. The expansion of registration to all Americans would 
     take effect 1 year after the date of the enactment of this 
     Act.

     Comptroller General of the United States to submit, not later 
     than December 27, 2022, a briefing to the Committees on Armed 
     Services of the Senate and the House of Representatives on

     National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2021 
     (Public Law 116-283).

         recruit information

     of the Senate and the House of Representatives by not later

     reform.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.

     already included in the sentencing parameters guidelines 
     prescribed by section 539E of the National Defense 
     Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2022, which requires 
     consideration of the severity of the offense and the

     security measures to address potential harms of remote on-

     require the Secretary of Defense to establish within the 
     Department of Defense a task force known as the ``Task Force 
     on Historical and Current Barriers to African American 
     Participation and Equal Treatment in the Armed Services.''
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The agreement does not include this provision.
       We recognize the Department of Defense has undertaken a 
     myriad of efforts to ensure a more diverse and inclusive 
     force where all members are treated equitably and with 
     respect. We also note the Secretary of Defense is working to 
     improve the entire life-cycle military experience for all 
     personnel, particularly historically underrepresented or 
     disenfranchised racial and ethnic minorities, and is pursuing 
     ways to increase participation and opportunities for career 
     advancement for those populations. Therefore, we direct the 
     Secretary of Defense to brief the Committees on Armed 
     Services of the Senate and the House of Representatives, not

     postures in support of the National Security Strategy and the 
     Department's National Defense Strategy, and any such other

       The agreement does not include this provision.
       We note that fluctuations in cost-of-living for 
     servicemembers is captured annually in statutorily required 
     basic pay increases, as well as annual increases to the 
     subsistence and housing allowances that account for increased 
     costs of food and housing. Similarly, the Office of Personnel 
     Management tracks and reports on cost-of-living increases for 
     Federal civilian employees, and adjusts pay accordingly, by 
     locality. Finally, a number of well-established indices from 
     the Bureau of Labor Statistics and other sources 
     authoritatively track cost-of-living fluctuations for a broad 
     range of demographic, consumer, and employment subsets.

     improve morale for servicemembers and their families assigned 
     to Alaska. We further note that the problem of servicemember

       We received a briefing from the Department of Defense (DOD) 
     on sleep apnea waivers for military accessions in response to 
     a report requirement in the William M. (Mac) Thornberry 
     National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2021 
     (Public Law 116-283). Over a 5-year period (2014-2018), the 
     DOD reviewed the records of more than a million recruit 
     applicants, and only 48 individuals were disqualified from 
     service for a sleep-related breathing disorder during that 
     period. Moreover, 21 of these 48 individuals requested a 
     medical accession waiver, with nine applicants' waivers 
     approved, and each of them were accessed into a military 
     service. These data do not suggest a need to conduct a pilot 
     program to screen for OSA in military recruits or officer 
     accession candidates. Additionally, we note that the American 
     Academy of Sleep Medicine's clinical practice guidelines 
     recommend polysomnography or home sleep apnea testing for the 
     diagnosis of OSA only in adults presenting with signs and 
     symptoms indicating moderate to severe disease.

     service or any other medical or non-medical service relating 
     to the improvement of infant and early childhood mental 
     health. The provision would require the Secretary to conduct 
     one or more demonstration projects to test and evaluate the 
     provision of such covered services to children of 
     servicemembers.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.

     purchased care components of the military health system that 
     are certified or endorsed to provide early childhood mental 
     health services.

       In August 2022, we received a report from the Department of 
     Defense in response to the Senate report accompanying S. 2792 
     (S. Rept. 117-39) of the National Defense Authorization Act 
     for Fiscal Year 2022, that demonstrated the consistent high 
     quality of peri-natal health care services provided in the 
     direct care component of the military health system. 
     According to the report, the pregnancy-related mortality 
     ratio in such component was 2.91 deaths per 100,000 live 
     births as compared to 23.80 deaths per 100,000 live births in 
     civilian hospitals. Furthermore, we note that the military 
     health system collaborates with external organizations, such 
     as the Leapfrog Group, to adopt leading practices to decrease 
     maternal mortality further. We commend the providers in the 
     military health system for their efforts to prevent

     require the Secretary of Defense to establish a pilot program 
     to authorize up to 1000 Active-Duty military personnel to 
     cryopreserve and store gametes prior to deployment in support 
     of combat or special operations.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The agreement does not include this provision.
     Pilot program for participation by members of Selected 
         Reserve in health professions scholarship and financial 
         assistance programs
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 775) that would 
     require the Secretaries of the military departments to carry 
     out a pilot program that could modify service obligations for 
     Selected Reserve members under the health professions 
     scholarship and financial assistance programs of their 
     departments to authorize satisfaction of the service 
     obligation by service in the Selected Reserve.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The agreement does not include this provision.
     Pilot program on ensuring pharmaceutical supply stability
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 776) that would 
     require the Secretary of Defense, acting through the Director 
     of the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA), to establish a pilot 
     program, not later than January 1, 2024, to acquire, manage, 
     and replenish a 180-day supply of at least the 30 commonly 
     used generic drugs at risk of shortage in the military health 
     system.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The agreement does not include this provision.
       We note that the House report accompanying H.R. 4350 (H. 
     Rept. 117-118) of the National Defense Authorization Act for 
     Fiscal Year 2022 required the DLA to assess the

[[Page H9465]]

     feasibility of expanding the Warstopper program for generic 
     pharmaceuticals to meet all military requirements. The study 
     began in July 2022, and it will conclude next year. It will 
     not only assess the feasibility of the Warstopper program 
     expansion, but it will provide an estimate of the potential 
     cost of expansion and provide insight on the best supply 
     chain solutions to mitigate individual pharmaceutical 
     shortages. Additionally, we are aware that the Government 
     Accountability Office is conducting a review of the 
     Warstopper program to determine the feasibility of expansion 
     to ensure medication supply stability for deploying units, 
     servicemembers, family members, and others during a public 
     health emergency. We anticipate that the reports on those 
     studies will be available for us to review next year.
     Grant program for increased cooperation on post-traumatic 
         stress disorder research between United States and Israel
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 778) that would 
     require the Secretary of Defense, in coordination with the 
     Secretary of State, to award grants to eligible entities to 
     conduct collaborative post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) 
     research between the United States and Israel.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The amendment does not include this provision.
       The Committees on Armed Services of the Senate and the 
     House of Representatives received a briefing in March 2021 
     from the Department of Defense (DOD) highlighting the 
     extensive military medical research collaboration between 
     Israel and the United States. We note this long-standing, 
     strong relationship is exemplified by the Shoresh Meeting, a 
     biennial research conference led by the U.S. Army and the 
     Israel Defense Force (IDF) held since 1978. This meeting 
     includes research discussion and collaboration in the areas 
     of infectious diseases, PTSD and behavioral health sciences, 
     combat casualty care, forensic pathology/identification of 
     victims of mass casualty events, chemical, biological, 
     radiological and nuclear events, naval and undersea medicine, 
     and physiological stress and aerospace medicine. We note that 
     DOD and Israel have either completed or begun 22 
     collaborative research efforts since 2016 in these research 
     areas with DOD awarding grants to conduct such research. 
     Additionally, the Uniformed Services University of the Health 
     Sciences and the IDF have had an academic agreement since 
     2016 covering the coordination of scientific and continuing 
     education programs to include the potential development of 
     specialized courses of military medical instruction.
     Pilot programs of Defense Health Agency relating to sexual 
         health
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 783) that would 
     require the Director of the Defense Health Agency to carry 
     out a 5-year telehealth pilot program for sexual health that 
     would provide remote assessments of sexual health, 
     comprehensive contraceptive counseling, diagnosis of medical 
     conditions affecting sexual health, laboratory diagnostic 
     services, and prescriptions for contraceptives or pre-
     exposure prophylactic medications.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The agreement does not include this provision.
       We are aware that many of the requirements in this section 
     are redundant to services currently provided in military 
     medical treatment facilities. We direct the Secretary of 
     Defense to brief the Committees on Armed Services of the 
     Senate and the House of Representatives, not later than March 
     1, 2023, on the full scope of programs and services on sexual 
     health that may be available to beneficiaries in the military 
     health system.
     Drop boxes on military installations for deposit of unused 
         prescription drugs
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 784) that would 
     require the Secretary of Defense to ensure that each military 
     installation maintains a drop box into which servicemembers 
     and their family members could deposit unused prescription 
     drugs.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The agreement does not include this provision.
       We note that the Department of Defense established a drug 
     take-back program in 2016 that includes take-back drop boxes 
     and mail-back envelopes. The program meets the regulations 
     established by the U.S. Drug Enforcement Agency that require 
     pharmacy personnel to monitor all drop boxes. Additionally, 
     by regulation, drop boxes can only be available to patients 
     during pharmacy business hours.
     Funding for pancreatic cancer research
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 785) that would 
     increase the amount of funding for pancreatic cancer research 
     in the Defense Health Program by $5.0 million.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The agreement does not include this provision.
       We note a $5.0 million increase for such research in the 
     budget funding tables of this bill.
     Psychological evaluations for members of the Armed Forces 
         returning from Kabul
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 786) that would 
     require the Secretary of Defense to provide an initial 
     psychological evaluation to each servicemember who served at 
     Hamid Karzai International Airport in Kabul, Afghanistan 
     between August 15 through August 29, 2021, if they have not 
     received such evaluation. The provision would require the 
     Secretary to provide additional evaluations not later than 2 
     and 5 years after the date of the enactment of this Act.
       The Senate agreement contained no similar provision.
       The agreement does not include this provision.
       We acknowledge that servicemembers engaged in military 
     operations may experience certain stressors that can lead to 
     anxiety, depression, and post-traumatic stress disorder, and 
     we encourage them to seek mental health care, without 
     reservation, at the earliest possible time. We are aware that 
     servicemembers engaged in operations in Kabul, Afghanistan in 
     August 2021 have received psychological health evaluations 
     and treatment as needed.
     Annual review and update of online information relating to 
         suicide prevention
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 787) that would 
     require the Secretary of each military department, beginning 
     on September 30, 2023, and annually thereafter, to review and 
     update online suicide prevention information and to submit a 
     certification to the congressional defense committees that 
     such information is current.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The agreement does not include this provision.
     Funding for post-traumatic stress disorder
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 788) that would 
     increase the amount of funding for post-traumatic stress 
     disorder in the Defense Health Program by $2.5 million.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The agreement does not include this provision.
       We note a $2.5 million increase for such research in the 
     budget funding tables of this bill.
     Increased collaboration with National Institutes of Health to 
         combat triple negative breast cancer
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 789) that would 
     require the Department of Defense to collaborate with the 
     National Institutes of Health to identify biomarkers and to 
     develop targeted therapies for triple negative breast cancer. 
     The provision would provide funding to the Defense 
     Health Program for breast cancer research in the amount of 
     $10.0 million.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The agreement does not include this provision.
       We note a $10.0 million increase for such research in the 
     budget funding tables of this bill.
     Pilot program to improve military readiness through nutrition 
         and wellness initiatives
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 790) that would 
     require the Secretary of Defense, in consultation with the 
     Secretaries of the military departments, to carry out a pilot 
     program to improve military readiness through nutrition and 
     wellness initiatives.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The agreement does not include this provision.
       We acknowledge the importance of programs to improve 
     nutrition and to promote wellness in the military services. 
     Good health and physical fitness are key components of 
     military readiness. The military services employ various 
     programs to promote wellness such as sleep education, weight 
     management and metabolic testing, exercise testing and 
     exercise prescription, and stress management and biofeedback. 
     They also provide nutrition fitness programs. One such 
     program, the ``Go for Green Initiative'' helps servicemembers 
     find high-performance foods and drinks to boost fitness, 
     strength, and health. It educates servicemembers and improves 
     their food environment through menu coding, standardized food 
     cards, food placement strategies, and promotion of green-
     coded, healthy food items.
     Screening and registry of individuals with health conditions 
         resulting from unsafe housing units
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 2816) that would 
     require the Secretary of Defense to ensure that all military 
     medical treatment facilities screen eligible individuals for 
     medical conditions that result from residing in an unsafe 
     housing unit and authorize the Secretary to establish 
     procedures that would allow screened individuals to be 
     included in a registry.
       The House bill also contained a provision (sec. 2880) that 
     would authorize the Secretary of Defense to ensure that all 
     military medical treatment facilities screen eligible 
     individuals for medical conditions that result from residing 
     in an unsafe housing unit and to establish procedures that 
     would allow screened individuals to be included in a 
     registry.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The agreement does not include these provisions.
       We direct the Secretaries of the military departments to 
     provide a briefing to the Committees on Armed Services of the 
     Senate

[[Page H9466]]

     and the House of Representatives, not later than 180 days 
     after enactment of this Act, on how they monitor the health 
     of servicemembers and their families who may have experienced 
     unsafe housing conditions.

  Title VIII--Acquisition Policy, Acquisition Management, and Related 
                                Matters

             Subtitle A--Acquisition Policy and Management

     Sec. 801--Writing award to encourage curiosity and 
         persistence in overcoming obstacles in acquisition
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 801) that would 
     authorize the President of the Defense Acquisition University 
     to establish an award to recognize members of the acquisition 
     workforce who use an iterative writing process to document a 
     firsthand account of using independent judgment to overcome 
     an obstacle the member faced working within the defense 
     acquisition system.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The agreement includes the House provision with a modifying 
     amendment.
     Sec. 802--Task and delivery order contracting for 
         architectural and engineering services
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 823) that 
     would amend section 3406 of title 10, United States Code, to 
     modify how the most highly qualified contractor is selected 
     to perform architectural and engineering services.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The agreement includes the Senate provision with a 
     technical amendment.
     Sec. 803--Data requirements for commercial products for major 
         weapon systems
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 802) that would 
     amend section 3455 of title 10, United States Code, to grant 
     the Department of Defense (DOD) authority to obtain data to 
     support the commercial product determination in certain 
     circumstances.
       The Senate amendment contained a similar provision (sec. 
     822).
       The agreement includes the Senate provision with a 
     modifying amendment.
       We recognize that in order for contracting officers to make 
     critical, foundational decisions related to contract actions 
     for firm-fixed price sole source contracts, they need access 
     to sufficient information to assess commercial item 
     assertions and price reasonableness determinations. Senate 
     Report 116-48 accompanying S. 1790, the National Defense 
     Authorization Act for fiscal year 2020, required the Under 
     Secretary of Defense for Acquisition and Sustainment to 
     submit an annual report detailing instances where potential 
     contractors have denied contracting officer requests for 
     uncertified cost or pricing data to allow for the 
     determination of fair and reasonable pricing of DOD 
     acquisitions.
       We have found these ``data denials'' reports to be 
     illuminating, and believe the contents of these reports 
     should be provided to the associated companies to ensure the 
     leadership of such companies are: (1) Aware they are named in 
     the report; (2) Have an opportunity to provide amplifying 
     information to the Department related to such reported 
     instances; and (3) Take timely corrective actions to address 
     internal compliance procedures as appropriate. We believe 
     such transparency can be instrumental to breaking down 
     barriers of communication between industry and DOD officials 
     at various levels of responsibility.
       Therefore, we direct the Under Secretary of Defense for 
     Acquisition and Sustainment to continue to submit this annual 
     report to the congressional defense committees, and to make 
     the appropriate portions of these reports available to the 
     leadership of companies named in such reports to enable the 
     aforementioned actions.
     Sec. 804--Revision of authority for procedures to allow rapid 
         acquisition and deployment of capabilities needed under 
         specified high-priority circumstances
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 804) that 
     would resolve inconsistencies and codify rapid acquisition 
     authorities from section 806 of the Bob Stump National 
     Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2003 (Public Law 
     107-314) and section 804 of the Ike Skelton National Defense 
     Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2011 (Public Law 111-383).
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The agreement includes the Senate provision with a 
     modifying amendment.
     Sec. 805--Treatment of certain clauses implementing Executive 
         orders
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 821) that 
     would amend section 3862 of title 10, United States Code, to 
     clarify that the insertion of a clause implementing a new 
     requirement mandated by an Executive Order into a Department 
     of Defense contract vehicle would be considered a Government-
     directed change.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The agreement includes the Senate provision with a 
     clarifying amendment.
     Sec. 806--Life cycle management and product support
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 804) that would 
     amend section 4324 of title 10, United States Code, to 
     require the milestone decision authority to ensure the life 
     cycle sustainment plan is approved by the product support 
     manager, program manager, program executive officer, and an 
     appropriate materiel, logistics, or fleet representative.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The agreement includes the House provision with a modifying 
     amendment.
       We note that traditionally program sustainment costs have 
     not been adequately integrated into the up-front acquisition 
     planning process, though there is data and analysis to 
     demonstrate that focusing on sustainment early in the 
     acquisition process can achieve significant programmatic cost 
     savings. The Government Accountability Office (GAO) has 
     reported extensively on programs that experience sustainment 
     cost growth, such as shipbuilding programs and the F-35 
     program, and made recommendations on how programs can be 
     operated and maintained affordably while meeting sustainment 
     requirements. GAO has noted the importance of establishing 
     connections between life-cycle costs, reliability 
     requirements, and manpower estimates, as well as emphasized 
     the importance of developing a business case analysis that 
     addresses tradeoffs and the associated implications to help 
     programs assess the costs, benefits, and risks of key 
     acquisition decisions.
       We further note the Department of Defense (DOD) has issued 
     a new policy on product support management (DOD Instruction 
     5000.91), which states, ``[T]he DOD will conduct 
     comprehensive product support and sustainment planning for 
     defense systems across the program's life cycle.'' We 
     therefore direct the Secretary of Defense to present a 
     briefing to the Committees on Armed Services of the Senate 
     and the House of Representatives, not later than March 1, 
     2023, on demonstrated or anticipated improvements 
     resulting from implementation of the Department's policy 
     for optimizing product support planning and execution, 
     including its ability to enable competition for life cycle 
     product support, retain core logistics capability through 
     organic depot maintenance, and make total force management 
     risk assessments.
     Sec. 807--Amendments to contractor employee protections from 
         reprisal for disclosure of certain information
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 806) that would 
     amend section 4701 of title 10, United States Code, and 
     section 4712 of title 41, United States Code, by expanding 
     the applicability to include qualified grantees, subgrantees, 
     and personal services contractors and by adding the Pandemic 
     Response Accountability Committee and the Integrity Committee 
     of the Council of Inspectors General on Integrity and 
     Efficiency to the list of entities to which a complaint can 
     be disclosed.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The agreement includes the House provision with a modifying 
     amendment.
       We note that whistleblowers who lawfully disclose suspected 
     wrongdoing to an authorized recipient are critical in 
     protecting the government from fraud, waste, and abuse. 
     However, whistleblowers risk retaliation for their 
     disclosures, including possible demotion, reassignment, or 
     termination. While a whistleblower is generally protected 
     from retaliation when a disclosure is made to an Office of 
     the Inspector General, among other authorized recipients, 
     questions have emerged as to whether those protections apply 
     to disclosures made to certain entities within the federal 
     inspector general community. Specifically, the Council of the 
     Inspectors General on Integrity and Efficiency (CIGIE) 
     identified a concern that in relation to pandemic relief 
     programs, disclosures to the Pandemic Response Accountability 
     Committee (PRAC), Special Inspector General for Pandemic 
     Recovery, and the CIGIE Integrity Committee may not be 
     clearly covered by existing whistleblower protections.
       Given this ambiguity, we direct the Government 
     Accountability Office (GAO) to review the extent to which 
     such protections apply to disclosures to the PRAC, Special 
     Inspector General for Pandemic Recovery, and the CIGIE 
     Integrity Committee. This review should also include 
     information and analysis on the following: (1) The number and 
     disposition of disclosures received by the PRAC, Special 
     Inspector General for Pandemic Recovery, and the CIGIE 
     Integrity Committee since March 2020; and (2) Whether any of 
     the whistleblowers who made such disclosures have also 
     claimed retaliation and the outcomes of those claims. We 
     further direct the GAO to brief the Committees on Armed 
     Services of the Senate and the House of Representatives on 
     the results of its review not later than 270 days after the 
     enactment of the National Defense Authorization Act for 
     Fiscal Year 2023.
     Sec. 808--Use of fixed-price type contracts for certain major 
         defense acquisition programs
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 862) that would 
     amend section 818 of the John Warner National Defense 
     Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2007 (Public Law 109-364) 
     to limit the number of low-rate initial production lots on a 
     single contract under certain circumstances, and to provide 
     for waiver authority.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The agreement includes the House provision with a modifying 
     amendment.
     Sec. 809--Acquisition reporting system
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 805) that would 
     amend section 4351 of title 10, United States Code, to remove 
     the termination date for the selected acquisition reports.

[[Page H9467]]

       The Senate amendment contained a similar provision (sec. 
     805).
       The agreement includes the Senate provision with a 
     clarifying amendment.

Subtitle B--Amendments to General Contracting Authorities, Procedures, 
                            and Limitations

     Sec. 811--Inclusion in budget justification materials of 
         enhanced reporting on proposed cancellations and 
         modifications to multiyear contracts
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 5811) that 
     would amend section 239c of title 10, United States Code, to 
     include enhanced reporting on proposed cancellations and 
     modifications to multiyear contracts in budget justification 
     materials.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The agreement includes the Senate provision.
     Sec. 812--Comptroller General assessment of acquisition 
         programs and related efforts
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 812) that would 
     extend the mandate in section 3072 of title 10, United States 
     Code, ``Comptroller General Assessment of Acquisition 
     Programs and Initiatives'' from 2023 to 2026, and would make 
     additional changes to the scope of the assessments.
       The Senate amendment contained a similar provision (sec. 
     808).
       The agreement includes the Senate provision.
     Sec. 813--Extension of Defense Modernization Account 
         authority
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 802) that 
     would permanently extend the authority for the Defense 
     Modernization Account.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The agreement includes the Senate provision.
     Sec. 814--Clarification to fixed-price incentive contract 
         references
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 814) that would 
     correct imprecise use of the term ``fixed-price incentive 
     fee'' contract and replace it with ``fixed-price incentive'', 
     which is used at subpart 16.204 of the Federal Acquisition 
     Regulation and throughout Department of Defense policy.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The agreement includes the House provision.
     Sec. 815--Modification of reporting requirement in connection 
         with requests for multiyear procurement authority for 
         large defense acquisitions
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 806) that 
     would streamline the process for submitting a request to 
     carry out a defense acquisition program using multiyear 
     contract authority.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The agreement includes the Senate provision.
     Sec. 816--Modification of provision relating to determination 
         of certain activities with unusually hazardous risks
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 815) that would 
     elevate indemnification authority for certain military 
     contracts from the Secretaries of the military departments to 
     the Secretary of Defense.
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 873) that 
     would extend an existing reporting requirement relating to 
     unusually hazardous risk and contract indemnification.
       The agreement includes the Senate provision.
       We remain concerned with the lack of resolution regarding 
     open indemnification requests related to the Conventional 
     Prompt Strike program, other weapons programs, and the 
     associated planned employment platforms. We note these delays 
     could lead to significant delivery delays for both Navy and 
     Army hypersonic weapons programs, the next block of Virginia-
     class submarines, and other programs.
       We are also concerned with inconsistencies across the 
     military services regarding implementation of section 2354 of 
     title 10, United States Code, and Executive Order 10789. 
     Further, we note that the report provided to the 
     congressional defense committees by the Under Secretary of 
     Defense for Acquisition and Sustainment did not fully respond 
     to the requirements of section 1684 of the National Defense 
     Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2022 (Public Law 117-81), 
     particularly regarding:
       (1) A determination of the extent to which each Service 
     Secretary is implementing section 2354 of title 10, United 
     States Code, and Executive Order 10789 consistently, and;
       (2) Identification of discrepancies across the military 
     departments with respect to such implementation.
       Therefore, we direct the Secretary of Defense to provide a 
     report to the congressional defense committees not later than 
     February 28, 2023, that fully responds to these requirements.
       Lastly, we direct the Director of Navy Strategic Systems 
     Programs to brief the congressional defense committees not 
     later than January 31, 2023, on the status of the 
     indemnification request for the Conventional Prompt Strike 
     program.

     Sec. 821--Repeal of requirement for Inspector General of the 
         Department of Defense to conduct certain reviews
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 506) that 
     would amend section 847(b) of the National Defense 
     Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2008 (Public Law 110-181) 
     to repeal the requirement for the Department of Defense 
     Inspector General to conduct periodic reviews to ensure that

     provided and retained.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The agreement includes the Senate provision.
     Sec. 822--Modification of contracts to provide extraordinary 
         relief due to inflation impacts
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 5812) that 
     would allow funds to be used to modify the terms and 
     conditions of a contract or option to provide an economic 
     price adjustment.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The agreement includes the Senate provision with a 
     modifying amendment.
       We recognize that higher than anticipated economic 
     inflation continues to challenge the budgeting and execution 
     processes of the Department of Defense and defense industrial 
     base (DIB). The ability of the Department and DIB to adapt to 
     economic conditions is a critical factor in maintaining the 
     health of the DIB, especially when economic conditions are 
     unusually volatile and in regard to firm fixed price 
     contracts where industry bears the predominant financial 
     risk.
       While it is important for the Department to uphold and 
     enforce contractual terms and conditions, we believe the 
     Department should be provided tailored authority to engage 
     extraordinary measures to address extraordinary economic 
     impacts. The ability to make informed financial plans and 
     decisions lies at the heart of competition. When 
     unanticipated extraordinary economic events disrupt those 
     plans and decisions, the result can be catastrophic for the 
     DIB, including economic hardship, bankruptcy, and 
     consolidation.
       In order to support a robust DIB, we believe the Department 
     needs additional temporary authorities to respond to the 
     effects of recent and current inflation levels. We believe 
     these authorities coupled with funding to mitigate inflation 
     impacts will enable the Department to provide a measure of 
     relief to the DIB where appropriate.

        Subtitle C--Provisions Relating to Acquisition Workforce

     Sec. 831--Key experiences and enhanced pay authority for 
         acquisition workforce excellence
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 831) that would 
     require the Department of Defense to establish rotational 
     assignments for a certain percentage of the acquisition

[[Page H9468]]

     workforce through the public-private talent exchange, and 
     amend section 1701b of title 10, United States Code, to add 
     Department of Defense Field Activities and Defense Agencies 
     and allow for up to five positions with enhanced pay.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The agreement includes the House provision with an 
     amendment that would establish rotational assignments for up 
     to 250 members of the acquisition workforce through the 
     public-private talent exchange.
       We recognize the value of industry exchanges and encourage 
     broader use of the authority for Department personnel who 
     volunteer for the opportunity to experience private sector 
     service and bring back observations and lessons learned on 
     management practices, technological expertise, and 
     organizational agility and flexibility.
       In expanding this statutory authority, we encourage the 
     Under Secretary of Defense for Acquisition and Sustainment 
     (USD A&S) to consider the recommendations put forth in the 
     Defense Business Board's 2019 report on reducing barriers to 
     industry-government personnel exchanges, and provide a 
     briefing to the Committees on Armed Services of the Senate 
     and the House of Representatives, not later than April 1, 
     2023, on progress made to address them, to include 
     streamlining myriad existing exchange programs, strengthening 
     civilian talent management, and proposing legislative changes 
     that might be needed to modernize rules governing conflicts 
     of interest and post-employment restrictions to achieve a 
     more permeable workforce of motivated, diverse, and highly 
     skilled individuals across the defense ecosystem.
       Recognizing the need to balance filling the Department's 
     acquisition workforce positions with broadening 
     opportunities, like the public-private talent exchange, we 
     encourage the USD A&S to request an increase to this 
     statutory authority as appropriate. Additionally, policies 
     governing such exchange opportunities should emphasize the 
     career-enhancing and broadening nature of these exchanges, 
     but should not be construed to be a requirement in 
     determining promotion potential.
     Sec. 832--Defense Acquisition University reforms
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 832) that would 
     amend section 1746 of title 10, United States Code, to 
     replace the requirement for full-time visiting professors 
     from civilian colleges or universities with an expectation 
     that the Secretary of Defense will ensure the Defense 
     Acquisition University (DAU) collaborates with the 
     acquisition research activities established under section 
     2361a of title 10, United States Code, and to direct the 
     Under Secretary of Defense for Acquisition and Sustainment to 
     appoint the president of the DAU by evaluating certain 
     factors.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The agreement includes the House provision with modifying 
     amendments.
     Sec. 833--Modifications to Defense Civilian Training Corps
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 833) that would 
     identify sources of expertise and collaboration for the 
     Defense Civilian Training Corps.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The agreement includes the House provision with a 
     clarifying amendment.
       We recognize there are existing and expansive partnerships 
     between the Department of Defense and academia that can be 
     leveraged to ensure successful implementation of the Defense 
     Civilian Training Corps (DCTC). Distinguishable from the 
     Science, Mathematics, and Research for Transformation (SMART) 
     Scholarship for Service program, which provides degree 
     funding and a limited work commitment to science, technology, 
     engineering and mathematics (STEM) students who conduct 
     complex research to further the defense mission, DCTC is 
     modeled on the Senior Reserve Officer Training Corps (SROTC), 
     which was established in 1916 to ensure preparedness and 
     develop military leadership to respond to a changing world. 
     Today, the Department must recruit and retain leaders who can 
     meet the challenges of managing strategic investment in the 
     industrial base and increase innovation within the defense 
     ecosystem. These leaders must represent a digitally literate 
     acquisition workforce capable of collaborating across 
     disciplines and with the private sector to partner with STEM 
     professionals on emerging technology initiatives.
       Therefore, the Acquisition Innovation Research Center, 
     which engages the talents of faculty, students, and 
     researchers from a broad, interdisciplinary network of 
     collaborative universities, should serve a leading role in 
     developing and deploying an SROTC-like curriculum designed to 
     train future civilian leaders to employ evidence-based, data-
     driven decision-making to improve defense acquisition 
     outcomes. We further encourage the Under Secretary of Defense 
     for Acquisition and Sustainment to seek insight from and 
     collaborate with the Under Secretary of Defense for Personnel 
     and Readiness and the Under Secretary of Defense for Research 
     and Engineering (to include the Strategic Engagements 
     Director of the National Security Innovation Network), the 
     Chief Digital and Artificial Intelligence Officer, and the 
     commanders of the SROTC commands for each service.
     Sec. 834--Acquisition workforce incentives relating to 
         training on, and agreements with, certain start-up 
         businesses
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 835) that would 
     require training curricula to educate the Department of 
     Defense acquisition community about the details of business 
     models and revenue incentives of software-first commercial, 
     startup, and nontraditional companies that may be able to 
     offer solutions to the Department.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The agreement includes the House provision with an 
     amendment that would make recommendations on applicable 
     curricula, which might include modification or adoption of 
     existing curricula from other sources, as well as the 
     identification of existing Department of Defense conferences 
     that might be expanded to include opportunities for 
     engagement by participants in these training opportunities.
     Sec. 835--Curricula on software acquisitions and 
         cybersecurity software or hardware acquisitions for 
         covered individuals

     require the President of the Defense Acquisition University 
     to develop training curricula related to software 
     acquisitions and cybersecurity software or hardware 
     acquisitions to increase digital literacy within the 
     acquisition workforce.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The agreement includes the House provision with modifying 
     amendments.
     Sec. 836--Department of Defense national imperative for 
         industrial skills program
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 865) that would 
     require the Secretary of Defense to evaluate and further 
     develop workforce development training programs to train 
     skilled industrial workers needed in the defense industrial 
     base through the Department of Defense National Imperative 
     for Industrial Skills Program.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The agreement includes the House provision with a 
     clarifying amendment.

     amendment.
     Sec. 842--Modification of authority of the Department of 
         Defense to carry out certain prototype projects
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 817) that would 
     amend section 4022 of title 10, United States Code, to 
     clarify that the authority for noncompetitive follow-on 
     awards includes transactions for prototypes even where 
     notification was not explicitly provided within the original 
     request for proposals, if other requirements are met.
       The Senate amendment contained a similar provision (sec. 
     214).
       The agreement includes the Senate provision with a 
     modifying amendment.
     Sec. 843--Other transaction authority clarification
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 845) that would 
     amend section 4022 of title 10, United States Code, by 
     striking ``military personnel and the supporting'' and 
     inserting ``personnel of the Department of Defense or 
     improving'' and by striking ``or materials in use'' and 
     inserting ``materials, or installations in use''.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The agreement includes the House provision with an 
     amendment that would clarify a definition, as well as create 
     a 3-year pilot authority to use other transactions for 
     installation or facility prototyping. The list of prototype 
     project types at subparagraph (e)(5) is not meant to be 
     restrictive, and should not be read to change the intent or 
     purpose of the glossary entry in the Department of Defense 
     Other Transaction Guide. To make the best use of the 
     authority in this section, we strongly encourage the 
     Department to invest in continuous and experiential education 
     for management, technical, and contracting personnel, as well 
     as attorneys, to understand how to effectively and 
     innovatively use other transaction authority and explore 
     flexible means to achieve mission results more quickly and 
     with more value added.
     Sec. 844--Prizes for advanced technology achievements
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 841) that would 
     expand authority to award prizes to recognize innovative 
     program management practices, as assessed and reported by the 
     responsible senior leaders in the Department of Defense, that 
     result in more rapid and efficient delivery of technology to 
     the warfighter.

     direct the Under Secretary of Defense for Acquisition and 
     Sustainment to report the actual software delivery times for 
     efforts using incremental software development. The report 
     would categorize incremental deliveries times. If a delivery 
     was not made within 12 months, the report would require an 
     explanation.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The agreement includes the House provision with an 
     amendment that would modify the scope of the reporting 
     requirement.

     clarifying amendment.
       We look forward to this demonstration exercise to be able 
     to provide an opportunity to test out industrial capacity 
     under realistic conditions, but not under the pressures of 
     responding to a real-world crisis. We expect the results of 
     this process will help validate current processes, or 
     indicate areas where our processes need further refinement. 
     We also think this demonstration will be helpful in 
     identifying or validating the needs for certain critical 
     items, such as microelectronics or critical materials, that 
     may be needed in the event of prolonged contingency 
     operation, but which might be denied during such crises.

     or other transactions for commercial products or dual-use 
     capabilities of which any component primarily relates to 
     critical technology.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The agreement includes the House provision with a modifying 
     amendment.
     Sec. 862--Key advanced system development industry days
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 872) that 
     would require periodic industry days for developing key 
     advanced systems.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The agreement includes the Senate provision with a 
     modifying amendment.
       We are aware that United States Special Operations Command 
     (USSOCOM) already conducts recurring, scheduled, industry 
     events through SOFWERX, multiple program executive officer 
     (PEO) engagements, and an annual industry conference. We 
     commend USSOCOM for undertaking these initiatives and 
     encourage their continuation.
       We also note the Department of the Navy's decision to 
     cancel the Snakehead Large Displacement Unmanned Undersea 
     Vehicle (LDUUV) program in fiscal year 2023. We understand 
     significant advances in commercial technology have occurred 
     since the start of the Snakehead LDUUV program and believe 
     commercially available LDUUVs operated independently from 
     submarines could be rapidly fielded to address current 
     Department of Navy mission needs and capability gaps.
       Therefore, we direct the Secretary of the Navy to conduct 
     analysis and experimentation activities during fiscal year 
     2023, including through the full use of the authorities in 
     this section, with the objective of identifying commercially 
     available LDUUVs that could be fielded as rapidly as possible 
     and deployed at scale as early as fiscal year 2024. The 
     Secretary should focus such experimentation activities on 
     LDUUVs that: (1) Do not require crewed submarines to serve as 
     host platforms for the conduct of uncrewed operations; (2) 
     Are commercially available; (3) Are at a high technology 
     readiness level; (4) Possess multi-day endurance; (5) Are 
     capable of operating at full ocean depth; and (6) Are capable 
     of rapidly integrating different

     payloads for the performance of multiple missions in support 
     of Navy and Marine Corps concepts of operations. The 
     Secretary is directed to report to the congressional defense 
     committees not later than December 1, 2023, on the actions 
     taken to comply with this direction.

     immediately preceding 5 fiscal years.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The agreement includes the House provision with an 
     amendment that would require the Department to develop and 
     assess a mission effectiveness metric for the SBIR and STTR 
     programs.

                       Subtitle G--Other Matters

     Sec. 881--Technical correction to effective date of the 
         transfer of certain title 10 acquisition provisions
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 861) that would

     create a pilot program to allow the Defense Innovation Unit 
     to hold personal clearances of the employees of an innovative 
     technology company while the Department of Defense completes 
     the adjudication of the facility clearance application of the 
     technology company.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The agreement includes the House provision with a modifying 
     amendment that would limit the number of companies 
     participating in the pilot program to 75, sunset the pilot in 
     5 years, have the program administered by the Under Secretary 
     of Defense for Research and Engineering, and ensure that 
     companies participating in the pilot program meet the size 
     standard for a small business or non-traditional defense 
     contractor.
     Sec. 883--Existing agreement limits for Operation Warp Speed
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 846) that would 
     prohibit any award made to a consortium under section 4022 of 
     title 10, United States Code, by the Department of Defense on 
     or after March 1, 2020, to address the COVID--19 pandemic

     unclassified information (CUI) at their next regularly 
     scheduled update.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The agreement includes the Senate provision.
       We understand the Department of Defense's uneven 
     application of CUI markings is particularly problematic for 
     industry, which often receives little CUI training or 
     guidance from the Government and is unsure of its 
     responsibilities regarding this marking convention. We are 
     also concerned with the extent and efficacy of the training, 
     guidance, and oversight provided to the Department's 
     Government personnel on the CUI marking convention, which has 
     resulted in the over-classification of entire documents and a 
     lack of clear portion markings within documents.


                   Legislative Provisions Not Adopted

     Modifications to middle tier acquisition authority
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 801) that 
     would amend section 804 of the National Defense Authorization 
     Act for Fiscal Year 2016 (Public Law 114-92) to require the 
     component acquisition executives to approve an acquisition 
     plan within 1 year of a program being designated a rapid 
     prototyping or rapid fielding program under the Middle Tier 
     of Acquisition (MTA) authority. The acquisition plan must 
     include: (1) The potential pathway(s) to an existing or 
     planned program of record; (2) A life-cycle cost estimate; 
     and (3) A test plan to verify desired performance goals.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The agreement does not include this provision.
       We support the use of MTA pathway to rapidly develop and 
     deploy innovative technologies and capabilities to 
     operational units. However, we are concerned that the desire 
     for speed in these programs could lead to the omission of key 
     elements of good program management. To mitigate this risk, 
     the Department of Defense should have processes in place to 
     ensure proper acquisition planning for MTA efforts that will 
     result in successful transition to a program of record.
       Therefore, we direct the Undersecretary of Defense for 
     Acquisition and Sustainment, in coordination with the 
     component acquisition executives, to submit an assessment of 
     existing acquisition planning processes for MTA efforts not 
     later than July 30, 2023. The assessment shall describe 
     existing processes or procedures the Department is using to 
     plan for: (1) The potential transition pathway or pathways to 
     an existing or planned program of record; (2) A life-cycle 
     cost estimate; and (3) A test plan to verify desired 
     performance goals.
     Preference for domestic foods for military working dogs
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 803) that would 
     require the Director of the Defense Logistics Agency to give 
     a preference for the acquisition of domestically-produced 
     food for military working dogs.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The agreement does not include this provision.
       We direct the Director of the Defense Logistics Agency to 
     provide a briefing to the Committees on Armed Services of the 
     Senate and the House of Representatives by June 1, 2023, on 
     sourcing for food produced for military-working dogs. Such 
     briefing should include sourcing over the last 3 years and 
     tentative sourcing plans over the next 2 years.
     Prohibition on certain procurements of major defense 
         acquisition programs
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 803) that 
     prohibit the procurement of items used in major defense 
     acquisition programs made in, or by companies controlled by, 
     China.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The agreement does not include this provision.
     Enhanced domestic content requirement for major defense 
         acquisition programs
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 807) that would 
     establish domestic content thresholds for certain acquisition 
     programs, require a related assessment, and make provisions 
     for the national technology and industrial base.

       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The agreement does not include this provision.
     Mission-based rapid acquisition account
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 808) that would 
     create a mission-based rapid acquisition account executed by 
     the Strategic Capabilities Office in coordination with the 
     Defense Innovation Unit.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The agreement does not include this provision.
       We encourage the Deputy Secretary of Defense to continue to 
     pursue the pilot program established by section 871 of the 
     National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2022 
     (Public Law 117-81) for the purpose of identifying lessons 
     learned and improving mission outcomes by quickly delivering 
     solutions that fulfill critical operational needs arising 
     from cross-service missions and at the seams between joint 
     and service capabilities. We further encourage the Deputy 
     Secretary for Defense to select a mission for the pilot 
     program in the Joint All Domain Command and Control (JADC2) 
     effort, specifically the role of the Under Secretary of 
     Defense for Acquisition & Sustainment in establishing 
     policies for acquiring the innovative technology and fielding 
     the capabilities needed to achieve interoperability and 
     common management across the JADC2 ecosystem. Therefore we 
     direct the Under Secretary of Defense for Acquisition and 
     Sustainment to provide a briefing, not later than February 1, 
     2023, on whether JADC2 is an appropriate environment for 
     mission management, and if so, how the Under Secretary would 
     plan for inclusion of funding in the President's budget given 
     the challenge of delivering capabilities that are evolving on 
     a commercial timeline.
     Preference for offerors that meet certain requirements
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 809) that would 
     require the Secretary of Defense to prioritize offerors that 
     meet certain requirements.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The agreement does not include this provision.
     Subcontracting requirements for certain contracts awarded to 
         educational institutions
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 813) that would 
     implement minority institution subcontracting requirements 
     for contracts awarded to certain institutions.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The agreement does not include this provision.
     Competition requirements for purchases from Federal Prison 
         Industries
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 816) that would 
     amend section 3905 of title 10, United States Code, to 
     require the Secretary of Defense to conduct market research 
     before purchasing a product listed in the latest edition of 
     the Federal Prison Industries (FPI) catalog and would require 
     the use of competitive procedures if the Secretary determines 
     the FPI product is not comparable to products available from 
     the private sector in price, quality, or time of delivery.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The agreement does not include this provision.
       We note that Congress established FPI to help manage, train 
     and rehabilitate inmates through employment. Congress 
     established a 5 percent threshold in section 827 of the 
     National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2008 
     (Public Law 110-181), under which the Department of Defense 
     (DOD) was to acquire products produced by FPI, as long as the 
     products met the needs of the Department in terms of quality, 
     performance, and price. We are aware of concerns about the 
     decline in FPI's revenue generated from sales to DOD and 
     Federal agencies. We believe that improvements in the ability 
     of Federal agencies to better mine acquisition data, 
     increases in the simplified acquisition threshold and the 
     advent of e-commerce portals will provide both more 
     opportunities and more insight into how well the program is 
     serving federal government needs. In addition, the Joint 
     Explanatory Statement to Accompany the National Defense 
     Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2022 (Committee Print No. 
     2) directed the Comptroller General of the United States to 
     look at this program in more detail to find opportunities for 
     improvement. We look forward to those preliminary 
     observations being delivered by December 2022, to help inform 
     any possible future congressional action related to FPI.
     Require full domestic production of flags of the United 
         States acquired by the Department of Defense
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 822) that would 
     prohibit funds to be made available for the procurement of a 
     flag of the United States unless such flag is manufactured in 
     the United States and from materials manufactured in the 
     United States.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The agreement does not include this provision.
       We note that the matters raised in this provision are 
     addressed elsewhere in this Act.
     Compliance procedures for investigating the prohibition on 
         criminal history inquiries by Federal contractors prior 
         to conditional offer
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 824) that would 
     require the Secretary of Defense to establish, and make 
     available to the public, procedures under which an applicant 
     for a position with a Department of Defense contractor may 
     submit to the Secretary a complaint, or any other 
     information, relating to compliance by the contractor.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The agreement does not include this provision.
     Reestablishment of Commission on Wartime Contracting
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 825) that would 
     reestablish the Commission on Wartime Contracting.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The agreement does not include this provision.
       We acknowledge that the recommendations made by the 
     Commission on Wartime Contracting in 2011 to address 
     deficiencies in contract management and oversight have 
     spurred meaningful internal review, improved coordination, 
     and data integrity assurance within the Department of 
     Defense. In a briefing directed by the Joint Explanatory 
     Statement to Accompany the National Defense Authorization Act 
     for Fiscal Year 2022 (Committee Print No. 2) on reforms made 
     to contingency support and vendor accountability operations, 
     the Department explained that in the early years of the 
     conflicts in Iraq and Afghanistan, insufficient thought and 
     effort were put into adopting and integrating joint 
     capability lessons learned related to operational contract 
     support, and more could have been done to recognize the 
     impact on the larger enterprise. Since then, in response to 
     Commission recommendations, the Department has consolidated 
     responsibilities, improved data accuracy, and created 
     workforce training based on lessons learned. We recognize the 
     need for continued improvement and institutionalization of 
     lessons learned so that the Department will be better 
     positioned to adapt or evolve its processes rapidly for 
     future contingency contracting needs, without the steep 
     learning curve documented by the Commission. The Government 
     Accountability Office (GAO) has tracked this positive 
     momentum and observed that operational contract support could 
     be removed from the High Risk List if sufficient capacity and 
     resourcing is invested in the Synchronized Pre-deployment 
     Operational Tracker-Enterprise System; greater efficiency and 
     accountability are achieved; and guidance on oversight, 
     management, and accounting of contractors supporting U.S. 
     military operations is updated. We look forward to the 
     Comptroller General of the United States' evaluation of 
     whether operational contract support is to remain on the High 
     Risk List. Any related GAO recommendations will inform our 
     future oversight.
     Progress payment incentive pilot
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 827) that 
     would require the Secretary of Defense to establish and 
     implement a 4-year pilot program to make accelerated progress 
     payments contingent upon responsiveness to Department of 
     Defense goals for effectiveness, efficiency, and increasing 
     small business contract opportunities.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The agreement does not include this provision.
       We note that the matters raised in this provision are 
     addressed elsewhere in this Act.
     Report on Department of Defense Strategic Capabilities Office 
         contracting capabilities
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 828) that 
     would require a report on the contracting capabilities of the 
     Department of Defense's Strategic Capabilities Office (SCO), 
     including an assessment of the extent to which changes to 
     these capabilities could benefit the SCO in carrying out its 
     mission.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The agreement does not contain this provision.
       We direct the Secretary of Defense, in coordination with 
     the Under Secretary of Defense for Acquisition and 
     Sustainment, the Under Secretary of Defense for Research and 
     Engineering, and the Director of the Strategic Capabilities 
     Office (SCO), to submit to the congressional defense 
     committees a briefing on the adequacy of SCO contracting 
     authorities not later than March 1, 2023. The briefing shall 
     include: (1) A summary of the existing authorities of the 
     SCO, including the mechanisms for contracting in support of 
     existing programs; (2) An assessment of the average amount of 
     time needed to conduct contracting actions through current 
     mechanisms; (3) An assessment of the pros and cons of the 
     current contracting processes for SCO in relation to their 
     ability to rapidly develop and deploy technology in 
     support of Department of Defense operational units; (4) An 
     assessment of the type or types of contracting authority 
     that would be most beneficial to the SCO in carrying out 
     its mission in order to achieve desired speed and scale 
     for the organization, including any limits or oversight 
     measures that should be put into place; (5) An assessment 
     of structural changes that may be needed in order to 
     accommodate the preferred contracting approach for SCO; 
     and

     (6) The Secretary of Defense's recommendations for future 
     authorities for the SCO.
     Repeal of certain provisions relating to acquisition 
         workforce incentives
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 834) that would 
     repeal certain note provisions that have expired or been 
     fully implemented in policy.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The agreement does not include this provision.
       We note that section 834 of the National Defense 
     Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2017 (Public Law 114-283) 
     is codified in title 10, United States Code, elsewhere in 
     this Act.

     for Fiscal Year 2022 (Public Law 117-81) to identify critical 
     defense requirements in the event of a crisis or conflict, 
     and to establish related reporting requirements.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The agreement does not include this provision.
       We look forward to receiving the report required by section 
     847 of the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 
     2022 in January 2023, at which time we will consider follow-
     on actions that might be necessary.
     Microloan program; definitions

     business concerns during the period beginning on March 1, 
     2020, and ending on the date of the enactment of this Act.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The agreement does not include this provision.
     Report on strategic and critical materials
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 859F) that would 
     require the Under Secretary of Defense for Acquisition and 
     Sustainment to submit a report describing strategic and 
     critical materials requirements of the Department of Defense 
     (DOD).
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The agreement does not include this provision.
       We note that the annex provided under section 851 of the 
     William M. (Mac) Thornberry National Defense Authorization 
     Act for Fiscal Year 2021 (Public Law 116-283) did not contain

     Sense of Congress on modernizing defense supply chain 
         management
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 859H) that would 
     express the sense of Congress on modernizing defense supply 
     chain management.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The agreement does not include this provision.
       We note that, to meet the unique needs of the Department of 
     Defense regarding continuity of supply chain management in 
     both garrison and deployed or austere environments, the 
     Department must prioritize digital supply chain management 
     solutions that use durable devices and technologies designed 
     to operate in remote regions with limited network 
     connectivity.
     Prohibition on the use of LOGINK
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 859I) that would 
     prohibit the Secretary of Defense, each Secretary of a 
     military department, and a department defense contractor from 
     using LOGINK.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The agreement does not include this provision.
       We direct the Secretary of Defense to provide a briefing to 
     the Committees on Armed Services of the Senate and the House 
     of Representatives by June 1, 2023 on any instances in 
     which Department of Defense entities or their contractors

       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The agreement does not include this provision.
     Temporary suspension of COVID-19 vaccine mandate for 
         Department of Defense contractors
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 866) that would 
     require a report by the Comptroller General of the United 
     States in the predicted effects of the requirement for 
     Department of Defense contractors to receive a COVID-19 
     vaccine.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The agreement does not include this provision.
       We continue to strive to understand the full impact of the 
     COVID-19 virus on the defense industrial base, in particular 
     the effects of the COVID vaccine mandate on contractor 
     performance. We believe more robust data and a better 
     understanding of a range of impacts can help inform future 
     decision making.
       Therefore, we direct the Comptroller General of the United 
     States to conduct a study to examine the effects of the 
     COVID-19 vaccine mandate on Department of Defense 
     contractors. Such study should examine the effects of such 
     mandate on contract costs, performance, delivery schedules, 
     subcontractor and supply chain matters, and workforce impacts 
     including increased or decreased rates of productivity or 
     absenteeism. A briefing on the interim results of the study 
     shall be provided to the Committees on Armed Services of the 
     Senate and the House of Representatives by August 1, 2023, 
     with the final report to be provided at a time mutually 
     agreed with the committees.
     Government Accountability Office report on Department of 
         Defense contract financing and commercial best practices
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 867) that would 
     require the Comptroller General of the United States to 
     submit a report assessing a study on the effect that the 
     Department of Defense's contract financing and profit 
     policies have on the defense industry.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The agreement does not include this provision.
       We are aware the Department of Defense has commissioned an 
     independent study to evaluate financing mechanisms available 
     in the Department's contracting toolbox to improve the 
     effectiveness and efficiency of cash flow in the defense 
     sector. We anticipate this study to provide useful findings 
     and recommendations on the impacts to cash flow based on 
     contract type, the impact on small businesses (especially 
     based on the amount and sufficiency of cash flowing down to 
     small business subcontractors from their primes), analysis of 
     the tradeoffs in longer-term capitalization decisions made by 
     the defense industrial base between pursuing private sector 
     loans versus advanced government payments, and the potential 
     impact government accounting system requirements for 
     contractors have on the ability to access cash flow.
       Not later than 1 year after the date of the completion of 
     the Department's contract financing, the Comptroller General 
     is directed to submit to the congressional defense committees 
     a report assessing such study, including efforts the 
     Department of Defense could take in light of the study 
     findings to ensure fair and reasonable pricing of commercial 
     products and services. We are also aware the Defense Contract 
     Management Agency (DCMA) is conducting a review of data 
     gathered on the degree to which prime contractors have flowed 
     progress payments down to their subcontractors since March 
     2020, when the Department adjusted progress payment rates in 
     response to COVID-19 impacts, and direct the Commander of 
     DCMA to brief the Committees on Armed Services of the Senate 
     and the House of Representatives on its data findings 
     analysis by March 1, 2023.
     Prohibition on contracting with employers that violated the 
         National Labor Relations Act
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 868) that would 
     prohibit the Secretary of Defense from entering into a 
     contract with an employer found to have violated section 8(a) 
     of the National Labor Relations Act (Public Law 74-198) 
     during the 3-year period preceding the proposed date of award 
     of the contract.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The agreement does not include this provision.
       We note that if an offeror is found to have received final 
     adjudication of a violation of the National Labor Relations 
     Act, a contracting officer has authority to determine the 
     offeror not responsible, thereby disqualifying it from award 
     of a contract.
       However, as the Acquisition Innovation Research Center 
     (AIRC) stated in a report titled ``Congressionally Mandated 
     Study on Contractor Debarments for Violations of U.S. Labor 
     Laws,'' published pursuant to the Joint Explanatory Statement 
     to Accompany the National Defense Authorization Act for 
     Fiscal Year 2022 (Committee Print No. 2), contracting 
     officers ``are tasked with a myriad of responsibilities 
     throughout the acquisition lifecycle . . . [and in] making 
     their responsibility determinations Contracting Officers 
     often do not have the necessary information or knowledge base 
     to make informed decisions regarding the relevance and weight 
     of various labor law violations.''
       Recent reports from the Comptroller General of the United 
     States indicate efforts are underway to improve information 
     sharing between the Department of Labor and Federal agencies 
     to ensure access to comprehensive and accurate information 
     when making such responsibility determinations, however, in 
     its report the AIRC observed such information transfer may 
     not provide contracting officers or suspension and debarment 
     officers the context and background needed to make fully 
     informed decisions. The AIRC recommends additional training 
     for contracting officers in how to find and assess data 
     regarding labor violations and suggests requiring contractors 
     to submit data regarding finally adjudicated labor law 
     violations as part of regular representations and 
     certifications to improve transparency, accuracy, and 
     decision-making.
       We therefore direct the AIRC to post the aforementioned 
     report on its publicly accessible website and encourage the 
     Under Secretary of Defense for Acquisition and Sustainment to 
     host a conference with AIRC, and participants from 
     government, industry, and academia, and create a summary of 
     such conference, to improve reporting processes and 
     understanding of labor violations within the existing 
     statutory and regulatory framework.
     Amendments to contracting authority for certain small 
         business concerns
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 869) that would 
     amend contracting authorities for socially and economically 
     disadvantaged business concerns, certain small business 
     concerns owned and controlled by women, qualified HUBZone 
     small business concerns, small business concerns owned and 
     controlled by service-disabled veterans, and certain veteran-
     owned concerns.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The agreement does not include this provision.
     Equitable adjustments to construction contracts
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 870) that would 
     allow a small business concern that was awarded a 
     construction contact by an agency to submit a request for an 
     equitable adjustment to the contracting office of such agency 
     if the contracting officer directs a change in the terms of 
     the contract performance without the agreement of the small 
     business concern.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The agreement does not include this provision.
     Manufacturing of insulin
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 871) that would 
     authorize the Secretary of Defense to: (1) Select one or more 
     Government-owned, contractor-operated facilities to 
     manufacture insulin; (2) Use existing pharmaceutical 
     manufacturing facilities of the Department of Defense to 
     produce insulin; or (3) Establish new pharmaceutical 
     manufacturing facilities to produce insulin.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The agreement does not include this provision.
       We recognize the current challenges in maintaining a stable 
     and resilient supply chain, especially for pharmaceutical 
     agents. The recent COVID-19 pandemic response has highlighted 
     the susceptibility of the supply chain to disruptions and the 
     need for more robust investments from civilian agencies to 
     oversee and mitigate those disruptions. As a vital 
     subpopulation requiring an assured pharmaceutical agent 
     supply in order to maintain force readiness and family 
     support, we believe it is necessary to have a better 
     understanding of the Department's requirements for such 
     agents used to treat chronic health conditions, as well as 
     planning and mitigation measures being taken to protect 
     against supply chain disruptions.
       Therefore, we direct the Under Secretary of Defense for 
     Personnel and Readiness, in consultation with the Under 
     Secretary of Defense for Acquisition and Sustainment, to 
     brief the Committees on Armed Services of the Senate and the 
     House of Representatives not later than July 1, 2023, on an 
     analysis of the projected pharmaceutical agent needs to 
     supply the military health system. Such analysis should 
     include:
       (1) Estimated total annual requirements needed in the 
     military health system to treat chronic health conditions;
       (2) Methods for satisfying requirements, including 
     identification of any production shortfalls; and
       (3) Options for mitigating production shortfalls, including 
     identification of the agency or entity responsible for 
     mitigation measures.
     Need for development and acquisition of natural rubber from 
         domestic herbacious plant sources
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 872) that would 
     require the Under Secretary of Defense for Acquisition and 
     Sustainment to submit a plan for future investment by the 
     Department of Defense in the development, testing, and 
     evaluation of domestic natural rubber from herbaceous plants 
     for military applications, including a timeline for acquiring 
     critical defense components and products using natural rubber 
     from domestic sources.

       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The agreement does not include this provision.
       We note that the issues raised in this provision are 
     addressed elsewhere in this Act.
     Duties of small business development center counselors
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 874) that would 
     amend the duties of small business development center 
     counselors.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The agreement does not include this provision.
     Establishment of Office of Strategic Capital
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 5901) that 
     would establish the Office of Strategic Capital.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The agreement does not include this provision.
       We are aware that there are a number of authorities 
     available to other parts of the federal government, such as 
     loans, loan guarantees, equity investments, and insurance/
     reinsurance processes, that can be helpful tools for 
     incentivizing the engagement of U.S. private capital in a 
     manner that furthers the U.S. national interest. Similar 
     tools are also utilized by adversarial governments, therefore 
     it is critical that the Department of Defense better 
     understand and find the means to effectively use all such 
     available tools to ensure that the Department can combat both 
     the unintended consequences of long-standing economic 
     policies, as well as the subversion and malign perversion of 
     our open, competitive economic system.
       Therefore, we direct the Secretary of Defense to provide a 
     briefing to the congressional defense committees by not later 
     than March 1, 2023, on the application, feasibility, and 
     potential implementation of pathways for economic policy 
     instruments that might be used to support and bolster U.S. 
     national security and the defense industrial base, such as 
     loans, loan guarantees, equity investments, and insurance/
     reinsurance processes. Such briefing should include:
       (1) A description of similar authorities that are in use by 
     other parts of the federal government, including limitations 
     on their use, effectiveness and challenges in their 
     execution;
       (2) How the Department of Defense currently works with 
     those other federal agencies to leverage existing 
     authorities, as well as recommendations on how the Department 
     might improve their ability to leverage those authorities;
       (3) An analysis of any gaps in existing authorities where 
     the Department might benefit from having similar authorities 
     granted, as well as how it might staff and implement such 
     authorities if they were to be granted;
       (4) A detailed description of how loan guarantees could be 
     vetted, approved, and managed by the Department, including 
     mechanisms to ensure competition and transparency, and how 
     they could protect the interests of the Government; and
       (5) How such loan guarantees would be coordinated with 
     other Government invest mechanisms or other private sector 
     financing.
     Homeland Procurement Reform Act
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 6033) that 
     would amend subtitle D of title VII of the Homeland Security

       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The agreement does not include this provision.
     Collection, verification, and disclosure of information by 
         online marketplaces to inform consumers
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 6034) that

       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 901) that would 
     increase the number of authorized Assistant Secretaries of 
     Defense and Deputy Assistant Secretaries of Defense, in 
     support of the Under Secretary of Defense for Research and 
     Engineering.
       The Senate amendment contained a similar provision (sec. 
     901).
       The agreement includes a modifying amendment that increases 
     the number of Assistant Secretaries by four, and the number 
     of Deputy Assistant Secretaries by three, along with some 
     other conforming changes.
     Sec. 902--Conforming amendments relating to repeal of 
         position of Chief Management Officer
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 902) that 
     would amend section 2222 of title 10, United States Code, to 
     make the Chief Information Officer of the Department of 
     Defense responsible for management oversight for defense 
     business systems, including for certification of such systems 
     and development and upkeep for the business enterprise 
     architecture.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.

         product to identify, task, and manage congressional 
         reporting requirements
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 904) that 
     would limit certain funds from obligation or expenditure 
     until the Department of Defense demonstrates a minimum viable 
     product of a modernized software tool for managing 
     congressionally required reports aligned with the processes 
     described in section 908 of the William M. (Mac) Thornberry

     replace the Congressional Hearings and Reporting Requirements 
     Tracking System. While the Department has made recent 
     progress in replacing their outdated system for managing 
     congressionally required reports, these efforts will not 
     begin producing desired results until the Department is able 
     to demonstrate a minimum viable product.

     Center at U.S. Strategic Command and view such an effort as 
     value additive to supporting the joint force in planning, 
     training and operations for the combatant commands with 
     respect to electronic warfare.

       The agreement does not include this provision.
       We note the ongoing interest in the structure and 
     authorities related to the explosive ordnance disposal 
     enterprise and encourage continued dialogue on these matters.
     Modification of report regarding the designation of the 
         Explosive Ordnance Disposal Corps as a basic branch of

     Sense of Congress on the Electromagnetic Spectrum Superiority 
         Strategy
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 917) that would 
     support the Department of Defense's efforts to achieve 
     electromagnetic superiority, as outlined in its 2020 
     Electromagnetic Spectrum Superiority Strategy, including 
     encouraging the Department to unify Defense-wide 
     electromagnetic spectrum enterprise activities and 
     consolidate electromagnetic spectrum operations leadership. 
     It would also require the Department of Defense to provide an 
     unclassified version of its Implementation Plan for the 
     Electromagnetic Spectrum Superiority Strategy.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The agreement does not include this provision.
       We believe the following:
       (1) The Department of Defense released the 
     ``Electromagnetic Spectrum Superiority Strategy'' (October 
     2020) and the corresponding ``Electromagnetic Spectrum 
     Superiority Strategy Implementation Plan'' (August 2021);
       (2) The purpose of the ``Electromagnetic Spectrum 
     Superiority Strategy'' is to align electromagnetic spectrum 
     activities across the Department of Defense to solve 
     persistent gaps in the ability of the United States to 
     project, achieve, and sustain electromagnetic spectrum 
     superiority against adversaries and peer competitors, most 
     notably Russia and China;
       (3) A goal of the ``Electromagnetic Spectrum Superiority 
     Strategy'' is to ``Establish Effective EMS Governance'' to 
     unify Department of Defense-wide electromagnetic spectrum 
     enterprise activities, develop a continuous process 
     improvement culture, and promote policies that support 
     Department of Defense electromagnetic spectrum capabilities 
     and operations;
       (4) Electromagnetic spectrum superiority underpins each of 
     the four priorities of the ``2022 National Defense Strategy 
     of the Department of Defense;''
       (5) The projecting, achievement, and sustainment of 
     electromagnetic spectrum superiority is inherently a joint 
     operational mission that is fundamental to the success of 
     military missions carried out by the United States and its 
     allies across all warfighting domains;
       (6) Electromagnetic spectrum operations leadership in the 
     Pentagon must be consolidated and unambiguous to address 
     persistent gaps in coordination of joint electronic warfare 
     among the services and fragmentation in guidance from 
     leadership in the Department of Defense; and
       (7) The Secretary of Defense--
       (a) Should provide to Congress an unclassified version of 
     the Implementation Plan for the Electromagnetic Spectrum 
     Superiority Strategy in all future updates to the plan; and
       (b) As part of implementing the Electromagnetic Spectrum 
     Superiority Strategy, should--
       (i) Strengthen governance reforms to ensure necessary 
     senior operational leadership; and
       (ii) Provide a coherent response to persistent gaps in 
     joint electromagnetic spectrum operations across the areas of 
     Doctrine, Organization, Training, Materiel, Leadership, 
     Personnel, Facilities and Policy (DOTMLPF-P).
     Establishment of Space National Guard
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 921) that would 
     establish a Space National Guard comprising National Guard 
     forces in the states and U.S. territories in which the Space 
     Force operates.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The agreement does not include this provision.
     Vice Chief of Space Operations

     would amend chapter 908 of title 10, United States Code, to 
     authorize a Vice Chief of Space Operations in the grade of 
     general within the U.S. Space Force.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The agreement does not include this provision.
     No effect on military installations
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 922) that would 
     clarify that nothing in this subtitle would require or 
     authorize the relocation of any facility, infrastructure, or 
     military installation of the Space National Guard or Air 
     National Guard.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The agreement does not include this provision.
     Establishment of field operating agencies and direct 
         reporting units of Space Force
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 922) that 
     would allow the Secretary of the Air Force to establish an 
     Enterprise Talent Management Office as a field operating 
     agency of the headquarters of the U.S. Space Force and a 
     Space Analysis Warfighting Center as a direct reporting unit 
     of the Chief of Space Operations.

[[Page H9476]]

       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The agreement does not include this provision.
       We note the structural changes being executed and 
     considered as the Chief of Space Operations (CSO) and 
     Assistant Secretary of the Air Force for Space Acquisition 
     and Integration (SAF/SQ) continue to establish their 
     respective organizations. We further note the desire of the 
     CSO to establish direct reporting units (DRU) and/or field 
     operating agencies (FOA), to include conducting space 
     warfighting analysis and enterprise talent management 
     activities. To date, we have not received adequate 
     justification for these DRU/FOA requests. Further, in the 
     case of the Space Warfighting Analysis Center (SWAC), 
     consideration of alignment to SAF/SQ does not appear to have 
     been addressed, as was required by the National Defense 
     Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2022 (Public Law 117-81). 
     Therefore, we direct that there should still be a desire to 
     establish these organizations either as a DRU or FOA within 
     the United States Space Force, and that not later than March 
     31, 2023, the Secretary of the Air Force shall provide a 
     briefing to the congressional defense committees that 
     includes:
       (1) Justification for establishing the SWAC as a DRU to the 
     CSO, including:
       (a) Risks and benefits to maintaining the current 
     organizational structure reporting to the Space Operations 
     Command (SpOC)
       (b) Analysis of risks and benefits of aligning the SWAC to 
     the SAF/SQ vice the CSO or SpOC; and
       (2) Justification for establishing an Enterprise Talent 
     Management Office (ETMO), including
       (a) Location
       (b) Personnel requirements
       (c) Associated costs.

     subtitle not later than 18 months after the date of the 
     enactment of this Act.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The agreement does not include this provision.
     Conforming amendments and clarification of authorities

     National Guard, as established by this subtitle, and 
     conforming amendments to title 10, United States Code.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The agreement does not include this provision.
     Study of proposed Space Force reorganization
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 924) that

     a contract with one or more federally funded research and 
     development centers to conduct a study on the proposed 
     reorganization of the Space Force and the establishment of 
     the space component. The Secretary would be required to 
     submit to the Committees on Armed Services of the Senate and 
     the House of Representatives a report on such study not later 
     than December 31, 2023.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The agreement does not include this provision.
       We note that the elements of this study are included in a 
     provision elsewhere in the agreement.

         Subtitle E--Miscellaneous Authorities and Limitations

     Sec. 1041--Submission of national defense strategy in 
         classified and unclassified form
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1043) that would 
     modify section 113(g)(1)(D) of title 10, United States Code,

     in unclassified form.
       The Senate amendment contained a similar provision (sec. 
     1061).
       The agreement includes the Senate provision.
       We note that when the Department of Defense (DOD) 
     transmitted the classified 2022 NDS to Congress, it did not 
     submit an unclassified summary as required by statute and as 
     occurred in the 2018 NDS process. Instead, the DOD provided a 
     short, unclassified fact sheet that summarized, in broad 
     terms, the main priorities of the 2022 NDS. While the 
     Department has since released an unclassified summary of the 
     NDS, we note that several months elapsed from the transmittal 
     of the classified NDS to Congress and the release of the 
     unclassified summary. This delay hampered efforts by members 
     of Congress to explain the National Defense Strategy to the 
     public and debate policy and budgetary choices within the 
     Congress. Therefore, we believe mandating an unclassified 
     form of the NDS will aid Congress in its oversight duties.

     individuals.''

         of the Armed Forces and civilian employees of the

     in the national security interests of the United States.

     Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, to provide to the 
     congressional defense committees an unfunded priorities 
     report. The report must prioritize all unfunded priorities

     Sec. 1053--Modification and continuation of reporting 
         requirement relating to humanitarian assistance
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 1208) that

       The agreement includes the Senate provision with an 
     amendment that would restore annual reporting to appropriate 
     congressional committees on the use of the authority.
       We strongly support the use of section 2561 of title 10, 
     United States Code. However, we believe the authority 
     contained in section 2561 of title 10, United States Code, 
     does not adequately define the humanitarian assistance 
     purposes for the use of the authority.
       Therefore, not later than 90 days after enactment of this 
     Act, we direct the Secretary of Defense, in coordination with 
     the Administrator of the United States Agency for 
     International Development (USAID), to provide a report to the 
     appropriate committees on Department of Defense (DOD) 
     humanitarian assistance efforts, utilizing section 2561 of 
     title 10, United States Code, and related authorities to 
     achieve humanitarian assistance purposes. At a minimum, the 
     required report shall include:
       (1) A description of the scope of DOD humanitarian 
     assistance efforts under section 2561 of title 10, United 
     States Code, including partner country recipient entities 
     supported and variety of environments in which DOD provides 
     support;
       (2) The process for coordinating DOD humanitarian 
     assistance efforts under section 2561 of title 10, United 
     States Code, with USAID;
       (3) An explanation of how activities under section 2561 of 
     title 10, United States Code, can have ancillary benefits for 
     DOD to gain knowledge, access, and understanding of host 
     country capacity to conduct humanitarian assistance missions;
       (4) An explanation of how the authority helps achieve 
     combatant command requirements;
       (5) Recommendations for modifying section 2561 of title 10, 
     United States Code, to more accurately reflect the scope of 
     DOD's use of the authority for humanitarian assistance and to 
     more clearly define the humanitarian assistance objectives 
     and purposes of the authority; and
       (6) Any other matters deemed relevant by the Secretary or 
     the Administrator.
       For the purpose of this report, the appropriate committees 
     are:
       (1) The Committee on Armed Services, the Committee on 
     Appropriations, and the Committee on Foreign Relations of the 
     Senate; and
       (2) The Committee on Armed Services, the Committee on 
     Appropriations, and the Committee on Foreign Affairs of the 
     House of Representatives.

         Plan
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1061) that would 
     amend section 1074(c) of the National Defense Authorization

     amendment to section 1225 of the William M. (Mac) Thornberry

     building the capacity of partner forces; and (4) An

     security of the United States and its allies and partners.
       We note with concern that the Department of Defense has not 
     fulfilled its statutory requirements regarding informing 
     congressional defense committees about the activities that 
     comprise Operation Spartan Shield. We further note that it is 
     important for Congress to understand the objectives and 
     effectiveness of Operation Spartan Shield, including its 
     budget. Delays in completing this report may invite 
     additional oversight measures.
     Sec. 1056--Annual report on civilian casualties in connection 
         with United States military operations
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1071) that would

     would allow the Secretary of the Navy to award contracts for 
     ship repair to non-homeport shipyards that otherwise meet the 
     requirements of the Navy for ship repair work in order to 
     meet surge capacity.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The agreement does not include this provision.
     Report on threat posed by domestic terrorists
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1036) that would 
     require the Secretary of Defense to submit to the 
     congressional defense committees a report that includes an 
     evaluation of the nature and extent of the domestic terror 
     threat and domestic terrorist groups.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The agreement does not include this provision.
     Consideration of human rights records of recipients of 
         support of special operations to combat terrorism
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1037) that would 
     amend section 127e of title 10, United States Code, to add 
     consideration of any credible information available to the 
     Department of State relating to violations of human rights by 
     foreign forces or irregular forces, groups, or individuals.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The agreement does not include this provision.
       We strongly support the authority contained in section 127e 
     of title 10, United States Code. However, we are concerned 
     that written Departmental guidance may not have kept pace 
     with standard operating procedures for the use of the 
     authority or effectively captured lessons learned from the 
     use of the authority. Therefore, we direct the Assistant 
     Secretary of Defense for Special Operations and Low Intensity 
     Conflict (ASD SO/LIC) and the Commander of United States 
     Special Operations Command (USSOCOM) to review and update, as 
     appropriate, written guidance for the use of the 127e 
     authority. At a minimum, this enduring guidance should 
     appropriately outline processes for obtaining Chief of 
     Mission concurrence; reporting to the congressional defense 
     committees; vetting of supported groups and individuals, to 
     the extent practicable, for human rights, 
     counterintelligence, force protection, and other concerns; 
     and other best practices. We direct the ASD SO/LIC and the 
     Commander of USSOCOM 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 results 
     of the review and plans for appropriately updating written 
     guidance.
       Additionally, not later than 90 days after the date of the 
     enactment of this Act, the ASD SO/LIC and the Commander of 
     USSOCOM shall provide a briefing to the congressional defense 
     committees on the processes used to assess, monitor, and 
     evaluate programs and activities under section 127e of title 
     10, United States Code, and section 1202 of the National 
     Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2018 (Public Law 
     115-91). At a minimum, the briefing shall include:
       (1) How the Department evaluates the efficiency and 
     effectiveness of such programs and activities in achieving 
     desired outcomes;
       (2) An explanation of the extent to which such lessons are 
     used to improve future programs and activities carried out 
     under such authorities;
       (3) An improved assessment framework to more clearly 
     articulate how the individual programs and activities are 
     meeting the objectives of the geographical combatant 
     commander, to include the metrics used as well as the process 
     the Department uses to determine if programs and activities 
     should be continued; and
       (4) Any other matters deemed relevant by the Assistant 
     Secretary and Commander.
     Modifications to support of special operations for irregular 
         warfare
       The House bill contained provisions (secs. 1038 and 1331) 
     that would amend section 1202 of the National Defense 
     Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2018 (Public Law 115-91) to 
     require consideration of any credible information available 
     to the Department of State relating to gross violations of 
     human rights prior to providing support to foreign forces, 
     irregular forces, groups, or individuals under the authority 
     and that would codify section 1202 of the National Defense 
     Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2018, as amended, by adding 
     a new section after section 127c of title 10, United States 
     Code.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The agreement does not include these provisions.
     Department of Defense-Department of Veterans Affairs 
         Discharge Review Board Committee
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 1041) that 
     would establish a Department of Defense-Department of 
     Veterans Affairs Discharge Review Board Committee to advise 
     the Under Secretary of Defense for Personnel and Readiness 
     and the Deputy Secretary of Veterans Affairs on matters 
     relating to the review boards under section 1553 of title 10, 
     United States Code.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The agreement does not include this provision.
     Prohibition on delegation of authority to designate foreign 
         partner forces as eligible for the provision of 
         collective self-defense support by United States Armed 
         Forces
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 1044) that 
     would prohibit the Secretary of Defense from delegating the 
     authority to designate foreign partner forces as eligible for 
     the provision of collective self-defense support by U.S. 
     Armed Forces.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The agreement does not include this provision.
       We believe decisions related to authorized uses of U.S. 
     military force are foundational to the concept of civilian 
     control of the military. As such, we believe that any 
     designation of foreign partner forces as eligible for the 
     provision of collective self-defense that is made within the 
     Department of Defense should not be made, absent 
     extraordinary circumstances, by any officer or official lower 
     than the Secretary of Defense. Lastly, we believe 
     designations of foreign partner forces as eligible for the 
     provision of collective self-defense should be regularly 
     reviewed by the Secretary of Defense to ensure these 
     designations remain consistent with controlling authorities 
     for the use of military force, U.S. national security 
     interests, policy, and strategic objectives.

     Repository of local nationals working for or on behalf of 
         Federal Government in theater of combat operations
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1046) that would 
     express the sense of Congress that there are well-documented 
     administrative issues with current and former Special 
     Immigrant Visa (SIV) programs and would require the Secretary 
     of Defense, in coordination with the Secretary of State, to 
     establish and maintain a database listing all foreign 
     nationals working for the U.S. Government or any contractor 
     or subcontractor of the Department of Defense, the Department 
     of State, or any other agency in a theater of combat 
     operations within 1 year of enactment.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The agreement does not contain this provision.
       We note that administrative issues such as verification of 
     employment, characterization of service, personnel data, and 
     biographical data needed for employment by a local national 
     employee should not be a barrier for an applicant who has put 
     themselves or their family at risk by providing faithful and 
     valuable service in support of the U.S. Government. We 
     further note that in response to section 1216 of the National 
     Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2022 (Public Law 
     117-81) the Department of Defense, with the agreement of the 
     Department of State, provided both obstacles and recommended 
     improvements to the existing synchronized predeployment and 
     operational tracker (SPOT) database to make it a future 
     database of historical employment data for purposes of SIV 
     processing for those employed under U.S. Government 
     contracts. The recommended improvements could streamline the 
     application process and provide independent and centralized 
     verification that an applicant is indeed eligible for the 
     program.
       We expect a follow up briefing to the 1216 report not later 
     than 180 days after the date of enactment of this Act by the 
     Secretary of Defense, in consultation with the Secretary of 
     State, on what measures will be taken within interagency and 
     with industry to ensure the SPOT database can be a database 
     of historical employment data for purposes of future SIV 
     processing. The briefing should also: (1) Explain the process 
     for transitioning, updating, or adding SPOT data fields that 
     capture data required by employment verification of the SIV 
     process; (2) Mechanisms for enforcing compliance of 
     contracting companies to properly enter contracted personnel, 
     specifically local national contracted personnel, in the 
     updated SPOT database in compliance with applicable Defense 
     Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement and associated 
     regulations; (3) Cost and time needed to transition the SPOT 
     database so it can capture data necessary for employment 
     verification of the SIV application; (4) Recommendations on 
     how other Federal agencies may utilize the SPOT database, 
     with exceptions for the Intelligence Community as necessary, 
     as the source of historical employment verification under a 
     U.S. Government contract for validating an individual's 
     employment as part of the SIV process; (5) Feasibility of the 
     Department of State to forego individual Employment 
     Verification Letters and Letters of Recommendations for 
     employment verification during the SIV process if the 
     contracting company has properly filled out all the necessary 
     data fields in the updated SPOT database; (6) Feasibility of 
     contracting companies to generate annual official employment 
     verification letters and letters of recommendation to local 
     national employees for use of employment verification for any 
     potential future SIV application; and (7) Any other matters 
     the Secretaries may view as relevant.
     Transfers and pay of nonappropriated fund employees
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1047) that would 
     require the Secretary of Defense, within 180 days of the date 
     of the enactment of this Act, to update policies and 
     procedures, as needed, to expedite inter-service transfers of 
     non-appropriated fund personnel.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The agreement does not include this provision.
     Consultation of congressional defense committees in 
         preparation of national defense strategy
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1050) that would 
     amend section 113(g)(1) of title 10, United States Code, to 
     allow the Secretary of Defense to seek the advice of the 
     congressional defense committees during the development of 
     the national defense strategy.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The agreement does not include this provision.
       We note that formulating defense strategy is a critical 
     executive function responsibility of the Department of 
     Defense. However, we believe it is important that the 
     Secretary of Defense, as well as senior defense leaders, seek 
     out a diversity of opinions when crafting policy, including 
     by consulting with congressional defense committees.
       We further note that members serving on the congressional 
     defense committees have a distinct perspective and expertise. 
     For instance, members come from a myriad of backgrounds, to 
     include those who have previously served in uniform, or in 
     the government at the highest echelons within national 
     security. Furthermore, many members travel extensively, both 
     domestically and abroad. During visits to U.S. military bases 
     and embassies, members may acquire views on the effectiveness 
     of U.S. policy that are different from those of senior 
     leaders serving in the Department. In addition, members 
     routinely meet with international leaders and participate in 
     global conferences. The knowledge garnered from these 
     meetings can be critical when shaping future policy.
       Finally, as the elected official charged with representing 
     their constituents, members will often hear directly from 
     citizens on issues and concerns. This feedback can be a 
     powerful input to senior leadership as they devise defense 
     policy objectives and plans.
       Therefore, we expect the Secretary of Defense to seek the 
     advice of the congressional defense committees during the 
     development of the next national defense strategy.
     Prohibition on use of funds for aerial fumigation in Colombia
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1051) that would 
     prohibit the use of Department of Defense funds to directly 
     conduct, support, assist, or contribute to the performance of 
     the aerial fumigation of crops in Colombia.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The agreement does not include this provision.
       We note that any Department of Defense support for 
     counterdrug activities in Colombia should be compliant with 
     Colombia's national and local laws and regulations.
     Assessment of suicide risk at military installations
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1052) that would 
     require the Secretary of Defense to establish a procedure for 
     assessing suicide risk at military installations. This 
     provision would also require the Secretary of Defense, not 
     later than 180 days after the date of the enactment of this 
     Act, to submit to the congressional defense committees a 
     report on the strategy and procedure for assessing suicide 
     risk at military installations.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The agreement does not include this provision.
       We note that the Defense Suicide Prevention Office, in 
     conjunction with the military services, is already working 
     diligently toward improving assessments of suicide risk at 
     military installations.
     Reports on hostilities involving United States Armed Forces
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1070) that would 
     require the President to transmit a report to specified 
     congressional committees within 48 hours after any incident 
     in which U.S. Armed Forces are involved in an attack or 
     hostilities.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The agreement does not include this provision.
     Equipment of Army reserve components: annual report to 
         Congress
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1073) that would 
     add the MQ-1C Gray Eagle Extended Range unmanned aircraft 
     system to the annual National Guard and Reserve equipment 
     report.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The agreement does not include this provision.
       We note that Congress has previously directed the Secretary 
     of the Army to study the feasibility of equipping the Army 
     National Guard with MQ-1 Gray Eagle aircraft. The committee 
     report accompanying H.R. 5515 (H. Rept. 115-676) required a 
     briefing on the utility, feasibility, and cost of 
     establishing two MQ-1 units in the Army National Guard. The 
     authorization of $350.0 million for procurement of MQ-1 Gray 
     Eagle Extended Range aircraft for the Army National Guard can 
     be found in the funding tables of this Act.
       We direct the Secretary of the Army to provide a report to 
     the congressional defense committees not later than April 15, 
     2023, on MQ-1 fielding, to include an update to the March 
     2019 study on this subject and the plan to acquire and field 
     aircraft funded in this legislation, assuming fiscal year 
     2023 appropriations are provided.
     Prioritization and acceleration of investments to attain 
         threat matrix framework level 4 capability at training 
         ranges supporting F-35 operations
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 1073) that 
     would express the sense of the Senate that current Air Force 
     training range capabilities are insufficient for advanced F-
     35 training and would require the Secretary of the Air Force 
     to prioritize and accelerate investments to develop and 
     upgrade one or more training ranges to attain threat matrix 
     framework level 4 capability, such as peer capability, not 
     later than fiscal year 2026.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The agreement does not include this provision.
       We agree that the current Air Force training range 
     capabilities are insufficient for advanced F-35 training. We 
     direct the Secretary of the Air Force to develop a plan to 
     upgrade one or more Air Force training ranges to attain 
     threat matrix framework

[[Page H9484]]

     level 4 capability, with a goal of achieving that capability 
     not later than fiscal year 2026. The Secretary should provide 
     a briefing on that plan to the congressional defense 
     committees by not later than May 1, 2023.
     Public availability of reports
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1074) that would 
     direct the Secretary of Defense to make congressionally 
     mandated reports that are not classified available upon 
     request.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The agreement does not include this provision.
       We direct the Assistant Secretary of Defense for 
     Legislative Affairs to brief the Committees on Armed Services 
     of the Senate and the House of Representatives, not later 
     than June 30, 2023, on the implementation of section 122a of 
     title 10, United States Code. The briefing should include an 
     update on the progress the Department of Defense has made in 
     implementing section 122a and any challenges associated with 
     the implementation of the provision. The briefing should also 
     address the procedures available to members of the public in 
     order to request a congressional report, as well as the 
     procedures and criteria under which the Secretary determines 
     that a report should not be made publicly available.
     Modification of Arctic Security Initiative
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 1074) that 
     would establish an Arctic Security Initiative.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The agreement does not include this provision.
     Review of security assistance provided to Elie Wiesel 
         countries
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1079) that would 
     require the Secretary of Defense to conduct a review of risks 
     related to the provision by the Department of Defense of 
     security assistance to countries identified under the Elie 
     Wiesel Genocide and Atrocities Prevention Act of 2018 (Public 
     Law 115-441; 22 U.S.C. 2651 note) as being at high or medium 
     risk for atrocities and to provide notification if the 
     Secretary determines that the Department of Defense should 
     stop or change the security assistance provided to a country 
     as a result of the review.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The agreement does not include this provision.
       We note that, in accordance with section 1210D of the 
     William M. (Mac) Thornberry National Defense Authorization 
     Act for Fiscal Year 2021 (Public Law 116-283), it is the 
     policy of the United States that the Department of State, in 
     coordination with the Department of Defense and the United 
     States Agency for International Development, should, to the 
     extent practicable, incorporate efforts to identify, prevent, 
     and respond to the causes of atrocities, as required by 
     section 3 of the Elie Wiesel Genocide and Atrocities 
     Prevention Act of 2018 (22 U.S.C. 2656 note), into security 
     assistance and cooperation planning and implementation for 
     covered foreign countries.
     Public availability of information about cost of United 
         States overseas military footprint
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1079C) that 
     would require the Secretary of Defense to post on the public 
     Internet website of the Department of Defense the costs to 
     each United States taxpayer of the overseas military 
     footprint of the United States.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The agreement does not include this provision.
     Study and report on potential inclusion of black box data 
         recorders in tactical vehicles
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1079D) that 
     would require the Comptroller General of the United States to 
     conduct a study to evaluate the feasibility and advisability 
     of equipping all tactical vehicles of the Armed Forces with 
     black box data recorders and provide a report on such study 
     to the congressional defense committees.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The agreement does not include this provision.
     Department of Defense engagement with Native Hawaiian 
         organizations
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1079F) that 
     would require the Assistant Secretary of Defense for Energy, 
     Installations, and Environment to submit a report on 
     Department of Defense plans to identify, standardize, and 
     coordinate best practices with respect to consultation and 
     engagement with the Native Hawaiian community.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The agreement does not include this provision.
       We note that this provision is covered elsewhere in this 
     Act.
     FFRDC study on shipyard infrastructure optimization program 
         efforts to optimize, recapitalize and reconfigure 
         facilities and industrial plant equipment
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1079G) that 
     would require the Secretary of the Navy to seek to enter into 
     an agreement with an appropriate federally funded research 
     and development center for the conduct of a detailed analysis 
     of the efforts of the Shipyard Infrastructure Optimization 
     Program to optimize, recapitalize, and reconfigure facilities 
     and industrial plant equipment at the Navy's public shipyard.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The agreement does not include this provision.
       We note that a sustained commitment to a holistic approach 
     to shipyard infrastructure optimization is essential to both 
     the health of the Naval fleet and our posture worldwide.
     Study on efforts of the Department of Defense to reduce the 
         use of single-use plastics
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1079H) that

     conduct a study on the efforts of the Department of Defense 
     to reduce reliance on single-use plastics.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The agreement does not include this provision.
       We direct the Comptroller General to conduct a study on the 
     efforts of the Department to reduce reliance on single-use 
     plastics. The study shall address: (1) The extent to which 
     the Department collects and tracks data on its use of single-
     use plastics and has set targets for reducing the use of such 
     plastics; (2) The status of the implementation of Department 
     of Defense Instruction 4715.23 and Executive Order 14057 as 
     that instruction and order relate to single-use plastics; (3) 
     Any Department-wide or military service-specific initiatives 
     to reduce reliance on single use plastics; (4) Any challenges 
     that the Department faces in reducing its reliance on single-
     use plastics and possible mechanisms to address those 
     challenges; (5) Any recommendations to improve the 
     Department's efforts to reduce single-use plastics; and 
     (6) Any other matter the Comptroller General determines is 
     significant and relevant to the purposes of the study. The 
     Comptroller General shall provide to the congressional 
     defense committees a briefing on any preliminary findings 
     of the study not later than September 1, 2023.
     Report on Littoral Explosive Ordnance Neutralization program 
         of record
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1079I) that 
     would require the Commandant of the Marine Corps to provide 
     to the congressional defense committees a report on the 
     Littoral Explosive Ordnance Neutralization (LEON) program of 
     record and detail required elements of such report.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The agreement does not include this provision.
       We direct the Secretary of the Navy to submit a report to 
     the congressional defense committees, not later than June 1, 
     2023, on the LEON program, including:
       (1) A detailed plan of action and milestones for the LEON 
     program to reach full operational capability (FOC) status;
       (2) An identification of manning, training, equipping, or 
     funding shortfalls or other barriers that could prevent the 
     LEON program from achieving FOC status; and
       (3) A description of capabilities able to collect, store, 
     manage, and disseminate information collected by LEON 
     sensors.
       We believe the Commandant should consider all Marine Corps 
     explosive ordnance disposal requirements, including those 
     related to very shallow water mine countermeasures.
     Assessment, plan, and reports on the automated surface 
         observing system
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1079J) that 
     would direct the Secretary of Defense, in collaboration with 
     the Administrator of the Federal Aviation Administration and 
     the Under Secretary of Commerce for Oceans and Atmosphere, to 
     assess and develop a plan to maximize the functionality of 
     the automated surface observing systems across the agencies 
     and requires a report to the appropriate congressional 
     committees on the findings of the assessment and 
     implementation plan.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The agreement does not include this provision.
       We agree to direct the Secretary of Defense to submit a

             Title XII--Matters Relating to Foreign Nations


                              budget items

     International Security Cooperation Programs
       The budget request included $48.4 billion for Operation and 
     Maintenance, Defense-Wide (OMDW), of which $2.4 billion was 
     requested for SAG 4GTD Defense Security Cooperation Agency 
     (DSCA), and of which $1.4 billion is for the International 
     Security Cooperation Programs (ISCP) account.
       We note that U.S. Africa Command (USAFRICOM) and U.S. 
     Southern Command (USSOUTHCOM) identified annual security 
     cooperation programs as unfunded requirements. In addition, 
     we understand that funding for security cooperation in the 
     U.S. Northern Command (USNORTHCOM) area of responsibility 
     (AOR) would be reduced under the budget request.
       We further note the importance of security cooperation 
     programs in the U.S. European Command (USEUCOM) AOR.
       Therefore, we recommend an increase of $198.5 million to 
     OMDW, for SAG 4GTD DSCA for the ISCP account, that includes 
     the following increases:
       (1) $20.0 million for USAFRICOM;
       (2) $20.0 million for USSOUTHCOM;
       (3) $5.0 million for USNORTHCOM; and
       (4) $100.0 million for USEUCOM.

       The agreement includes the Senate provision with an 
     amendment that would clarify the authorities of the Secretary 
     of Defense to operate, administer, and pay costs associated 
     with the Irregular Warfare Center and clarify the mission of 
     the Center and the roles and responsibilities of relevant 
     Department of Defense components regarding the Irregular 
     Warfare Center.
       We note that in addition to the areas of combating 
     terrorism and irregular warfare, the Regional Defense 
     Fellowship Program should include a focus on training on 
     urban warfare.
       We further note that the mission of the Irregular Warfare 
     Center is to serve as a central mechanism for developing the 
     irregular warfare knowledge of the Department of Defense and 
     advancing the understanding of irregular warfare concepts and 
     doctrine, in collaboration with key partners and allies. We 
     believe the Under Secretary of Defense for Policy and the 
     Assistant Secretary of Defense for Special Operations and Low 
     Intensity Conflict should play an active role in exercising 
     policy oversight of the Center to ensure its activities and 
     research are coordinated with and integrated across the

     Sec. 1222--Additional matters for inclusion in reports on 
         oversight in Afghanistan
       The House bill included a provision (sec. 1212) that would 
     amend section 1069 of the National Defense Authorization Act 
     for Fiscal Year 2022 (Public Law 117-81) to require 
     additional assessments of the status of capabilities 
     available to conduct over the horizon counterterrorism 
     operations in Afghanistan.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The agreement includes the House provision with an 
     amendment that would clarify the requirements and scope the 
     assessments as to pertain only to Department of Defense 
     capabilities.
     Sec. 1223--Prohibition on transporting currency to the 
         Taliban and the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan

       The agreement includes the House provision.

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

     Sec. 1231--Modification of annual report on the military 
         capabilities of Iran and related activities
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1224) that would 
     amend section 1227 of the National Defense Authorization Act 
     for Fiscal Year 2022 (Public Law 117-81) to make the 
     assessment be required annually and to include an assessment 
     of the threat from additional Iranian-linked groups.
       The Senate amendment contained a similar provision (sec. 
     1225) which would amend Section 1245(b)(3) of the National 
     Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2010 (Public Law 
     111-84) to include an assessment of the threat from 
     additional Iranian-linked groups, an assessment of the 
     threats from Iranian-linked groups against United States 
     Forces and coalition forces located in Iraq and Syria, and an 
     assessment of formal or informal ties between Iranian linked 
     groups and Russia or China or their proxies.
       The agreement includes the Senate provision with an 
     amendment to clarify the Iranian-linked groups that should be 
     included in the assessment.
     Sec. 1232--Extension of authority to support operations and 
         activities of the Office of Security Cooperation in Iraq
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1223) that would 
     extend the authority for section 1215 of the National Defense 
     Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2012 (Public Law 112-81) by 
     1 year for the Office of Security Cooperation in Iraq. The 
     House provision would also modify the authority to restrict 
     funds authorized to be appropriated for fiscal year 2023 for 
     the Office of the Secretary of the Army, the Office of the 
     Secretary of the Navy, and the Office of the Secretary of the 
     Air Force for travel expenses, beyond 65 percent until the 
     date on which a staffing plan for the Office of Security 
     Cooperation in Iraq is completed.
       The Senate amendment contained a similar provision (sec. 
     1222) that extended the authority for an additional year and 
     would also reduce the authorized amount for the Office of 
     Security Cooperation in Iraq's activities by $10.0 million.
       The agreement includes the House provision with an 
     amendment to restrict funds authorized to be appropriated for 
     fiscal year 2023 for the Office of the Secretary of the Air 
     Force for travel expenses, beyond 90 percent until the date 
     on which a staffing plan for the Office of Security 
     Cooperation in Iraq is implemented. The amended agreement 
     includes a waiver on the restriction of the funds if the 
     implementation of such a staffing plan is not feasible.
       We note that progress has been made by the Office of 
     Security Cooperation in Iraq to move the bilateral security 
     relationship between the United States and Iraq to a more 
     normalized status. Notably, the Office has submitted to 
     Congress a plan for such a transition. However, the plan for 
     appropriate staffing to match the transition has yet to be 
     provided to Congress and has not been implemented. We further 
     note that delays in taking such steps may lead Congress to 
     implement further restrictions on authority for funding 
     activities in the future.
     Sec. 1233--Extension of authority to provide assistance to 
         vetted Syrian groups and individuals
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1221) that would 
     extend the authority granted in section 1209 of the Carl 
     Levin and Howard P. ``Buck'' McKeon National Defense 
     Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2015 (Public Law 113-291) 
     including the waiver authority in subsection (l)(3)(D) 
     through December 31, 2023.
       The Senate amendment contained a similar provision (sec. 
     1221).
       The agreement includes the Senate provision.
     Sec. 1234--Extension and modification of authority to provide 
         assistance to counter the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1222) that would 
     extend the authority for section 1236 of the Carl Levin and 
     Howard P. ``Buck'' McKeon National Defense Authorization Act 
     for Fiscal Year 2015 (Public Law 113-291) including the 
     waiver authority in subsection (o)(5) through December 31, 
     2023.
       The Senate amendment contained a similar provision (sec. 
     1223).
       The agreement includes the Senate provision.
       We note with concern that the Secretary of Defense has not 
     submitted a comprehensive strategy to train and build lasting 
     and sustainable military capabilities of the Iraqi Security 
     Forces, including the Kurdish Peshmerga, using existing 
     authorities, which may include a memorandum of understanding 
     with the Ministry of Peshmerga Affairs in coordination with 
     the Government of Iraq; a plan to engage the Government of 
     Iraq and the Kurdistan Regional Government in security sector 
     reform and strengthen and sustainably build the capacity of 
     Iraq's national defense and security institutions, including 
     the Kurdish Peshmerga; and a description of the current 
     status, capabilities, and operational capacity of remaining 
     Islamic State of Iraq and Syria elements active in Iraq and 
     Syria.
       We further note that the submission of such a strategy and 
     plan to the appropriate congressional committees by June 25, 
     2022 is required by law in section 1223(f) of the National 
     Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2022 (Public Law 
     117-81). We note that timely submission of this strategy and 
     plan is important for continued progress on U.S. regional and 
     national defense priorities and critical to enabling 
     essential congressional oversight of such strategy.
     Sec. 1235--Prohibition on transfers to Iran
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1225) that would 
     prohibit funds authorized to be appropriated by this Act or 
     otherwise made available to the Department of Defense from 
     being used to transfer currency or items of value to the 
     Government of Iran, any subsidiary of the Government of Iran, 
     or any agent or instrumentality of Iran.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The agreement includes the House provision.
     Sec. 1236--Report on Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps-
         affiliated operatives abroad
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1229) that would 
     require the Secretary of State and Secretary of Defense to 
     submit a joint report on all Islamic Revolutionary Guard 
     Corps-affiliated operatives serving in diplomatic and 
     consular posts abroad and the ways in which the Departments 
     of State and Defense are working with partner nations to 
     inform them of the threat posed by these operatives serving 
     in diplomatic and consular roles in third party countries.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The agreement includes the House provision with a 
     clarifying amendment.
     Sec. 1237--Assessment of support to Iraqi Security Forces and 
         Kurdish Peshmerga Forces to counter air and missile 
         threats
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 1224) that 
     would require the Secretary of Defense to submit a report 
     assessing the threat of missiles, rockets, and unmanned 
     aerial systems to United States and coalition forces in Iraq, 
     including the Iraqi Kurdistan region; the current air defense 
     capabilities and gaps; and the required training and 
     equipment to improve air defense capabilities.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The agreement includes the Senate provision.
     Sec. 1238--Interagency strategy to disrupt and dismantle 
         narcotics production and trafficking and affiliated 
         networks linked to the regime of Bashar al-Assad in Syria
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1229B) that 
     would express the sense of Congress that the Captagon trade 
     linked to the regime of Bashar al-Assad in Syria is a 
     transnational threat and that the United States should 
     develop and implement an interagency strategy to deny, 
     degrade, and dismantle Assad-linked narcotics production and 
     trafficking networks.
       The Senate amendment contained a similar provision (sec. 
     6039) which would also require the Secretary of State, in 
     consultation with the Secretary of Defense, the Secretary of 
     the Treasury, the Administrator the Drug Enforcement 
     Administration, the Director of National Intelligence, the 
     Director of the Office of National Drug Policy, and the heads 
     of other appropriate Federal agencies to provide a written 
     strategy for disrupting and dismantling narcotics production 
     and trafficking and affiliated networks linked to the regime 
     of Bashar al-Assad in Syria not later than 180 days after 
     enactment.
       The agreement includes the Senate provision.
     Sec. 1239--Prohibition on transfers to Badr Organization
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 5807) that would 
     prohibit the Department of Defense to make any amounts 
     appropriated available, directly or indirectly, to the Badr 
     Organization.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The agreement includes the House provision.
     Sec. 1240--Report on the United Nations arms embargo on Iran
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1228) that would 
     require the Secretary of State in consultation with the 
     Secretary of Defense to submit a report assessing the United 
     Nations arms embargo on Iran and its

[[Page H9491]]

     effectiveness in constraining Iran's ability to supply, sell, 
     or transfer arms or related material when it was in place. It 
     would also require details regarding the measures that the 
     Departments of State and Defense are taking to constrain 
     Iranian arms proliferation and counter the supply, sale, or 
     transfer of weapons to or from Iran.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The agreement includes the House provision with clarifying 
     amendments.

                 Subtitle D--Matters Relating to Russia

     Sec. 1241--Modification and extension of Ukraine Security 
         Assistance Initiative
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1232) that would 
     extend by 1 year section 1250 of the National Defense 
     Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2016 (Public Law 114-92) to 
     authorize the Secretary of Defense to provide security 
     assistance and intelligence support to Ukraine; harmonize the 
     authority with changes made in the Consolidated 
     Appropriations Act, 2022 (Public Law 117-103) and subsequent 
     Ukraine Supplemental Appropriations; allow transfers of 
     equipment to replenish comparable stocks of equipment 
     provided by allies and partners to Ukraine; and authorize the 
     appropriation of $1.0 billion for such purposes. The House 
     bill also contained a provision (sec. 1236) that would 
     authorize funds to provide assistance to Ukrainian military 
     pilots and associated persons for training, including 
     training on fixed-wing aircraft and other platforms as 
     appropriate for air-to-air or air-to-ground combat.
       The Senate amendment contained a similar provision (sec. 
     1233).
       The agreement includes the House provision with an 
     amendment that would extend the authority through fiscal year 
     2023; harmonize the authority with changes made in the 
     Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2022 and subsequent Ukraine 
     Supplemental Appropriations; allow transfers of equipment to 
     replenish comparable stocks of equipment provided by allies 
     and partners to Ukraine; and modify an element regarding the 
     provision of training for Ukrainian personnel on manned and 
     unmanned aerial capabilities to make clear that such 
     assistance may include items and training related to fixed- 
     and rotary-wing aircraft such as attack, strike, airlift, and 
     surveillance aircraft. The provision would also authorize the 
     appropriation of $800 million for such purposes. We note that 
     the funds authorized for the Ukraine Security Assistance 
     Initiative via this Act are separate from and additive to any 
     supplemental funds.
       Additionally, we note that elsewhere in this Act there is a 
     requirement to provide a plan for the provision of security 
     assistance to the Armed Forces of Ukraine over the short and 
     medium term. We expect this report will cover Ukraine's 
     aerial capability needs over that duration and the plan to 
     build and improve upon such capacities.
     Sec. 1242--Extension of limitation on military cooperation 
         between the United States and Russia
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1231) that would 
     extend for 1 year section 1232(a) of the National Defense 
     Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2017 (Public Law 114-328). 
     The provision would limit the use of fiscal year 2023 funds 
     for bilateral military-to-military cooperation between the 
     Governments of the United States and Russia until the 
     Secretary of Defense provides a certification relating to 
     certain actions by Russia.
       The Senate amendment contained a similar provision (sec. 
     1231).
       The agreement includes the Senate provision with an 
     amendment that would extend the prohibition for 5 years.
     Sec. 1243--Modification to annual report on military and 
         security developments involving the Russian Federation
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1234) that would 
     require the Secretary of Defense to submit an assessment of 
     the strategic, operational, and organizational strengths and 
     weaknesses of the Russian strategy for invasion and 
     occupation of Ukraine; modify the Annual Report on Military 
     and Security Developments Involving the Russian Federation to 
     include the impact of sanctions; and require a report on 
     lessons learned from Russia's further invasion of Ukraine.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The agreement includes the House provision with an 
     amendment that would modify the Annual Report on Military and 
     Security Developments Involving the Russian Federation to 
     include the impact of sanctions on improvements to the 
     Russian military and its proxies.
       We note that the Department is working diligently to 
     capture lessons learned from assistance to Ukraine and to 
     carefully study the conflict as an example of modern 
     battlefield conditions with a participating major state 
     competitor. We note the importance of such efforts for U.S. 
     planning and preparation for potential future contingencies.
     Sec. 1244--Temporary authorizations related to Ukraine and 
         other matters
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 6233) that 
     would provide temporary authorizations related to Ukraine and 
     address other Department of Defense acquisition matters.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The agreement includes the Senate provision with a 
     modifying amendment.
       We recognize that the Department of Defense (DOD) would 
     benefit from temporary acquisition flexibilities to increase 
     the Department's stocks of critical munitions, provide 
     material and related services to allies and partners that 
     have supported Ukraine, and provide material and services to 
     Ukraine. We also support enabling the Secretary of Defense to 
     enter into cooperative acquisition agreements through the 
     North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) Support and 
     Procurement Organization. Finally, we believe providing 
     multi-year procurement authority for certain munitions 
     programs is essential to increase the Department's stocks of 
     such munitions, improve warfighting readiness, provide the 
     defense industrial base with predictable production 
     opportunities and firm contractual commitments, ensure 
     consistent funding across the Department's Future Years 
     Defense Program, increase and expand defense industrial 
     capacity, and coordinate the timing and funding for capital 
     expenditures with defense contractors.
       We direct the head of an agency, as defined in this 
     section, to notify in writing the congressional defense 
     committees not more than 30 days after using an authority 
     provided in subsections (a) or (c) of this section. This 
     notification shall include the specific authority used, a 
     description of such use, reason for such use, and expected 
     outcome of such use.
     Sec. 1245--Prohibition on availability of funds relating to 
         sovereignty of the Russian Federation over 
         internationally recognized territory of Ukraine
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1233) 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) on the use of fiscal year 2023 funds to 
     implement any activity that recognizes the sovereignty of 
     Russia over Crimea. This section would also allow the 
     Secretary of Defense to waive the prohibition if the 
     Secretary determines that doing so would be in the national 
     security interest of the United States and submits 
     notification to Congress.
       The Senate amendment contained similar provisions (secs. 
     1232, 6232, and 6234).
       The agreement includes the Senate provision with an 
     amendment that would expand the prohibition to cover all 
     territory internationally recognized to be the sovereign 
     territory of Ukraine, including Crimea and the territory 
     Russia falsely claims to have annexed in Kherson Oblast, 
     Zaporizhzhia Oblast, Donetsk Oblast, and Luhansk Oblast.
     Sec. 1246--Report on Department of Defense plan for the 
         provision of short and medium-term security assistance to 
         Ukraine
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1238) that would 
     require the Secretary of Defense to submit reports on the 
     Department of Defense plan for responding to Russia's 
     invasion of Ukraine.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The agreement includes the House provision with an 
     amendment that would require the Secretary of Defense, in 
     consultation with the heads of other relevant Federal 
     agencies, to submit a report outlining in detail the 
     Department of Defense's plan for the provision of security 
     assistance to the Armed Forces of Ukraine in the short and 
     medium term.
     Sec. 1247--Oversight of United States assistance to Ukraine
       The House bill contained provisions (secs. 1049, 1078, 
     1241, 1243, and 1244) with regard to oversight, 
     accountability, and end-use monitoring related to the U.S. 
     Government's response to Russia's further invasion of 
     Ukraine.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The agreement includes the House provision with an 
     amendment that would express the sense of Congress on 
     oversight, transparency, accountability, and end-use 
     monitoring efforts. It would also require a comprehensive 
     assessment of the oversight arrangements established with 
     respect to United States assistance to Ukraine, including the 
     organizational framework the Inspectors General are using or 
     planning to adopt for oversight; whether there are any gaps 
     in oversight; any failures by relevant organizations to 
     cooperate with oversight; the oversight footprint in 
     Europe; and relevant lessons learned.
       We direct the Inspector General of the Department of 
     Defense to provide the congressional defense committees, not 
     later than March 1, 2023, with a comprehensive briefing on 
     the status and findings of Inspector General oversight, 
     reviews, audits, and inspections of the activities conducted 
     by the Department of Defense responds to Russia's further 
     invasion of Ukraine.
       We direct the Secretary of Defense, not later than March 1, 
     2023, to provide the congressional defense committees with a 
     briefing on efforts to conduct end-use monitoring and 
     accountability measures for defense articles provided to 
     Ukraine, including: Department of Defense efforts to work 
     with partners and allies to enhance accountability and end-
     use monitoring; efforts to prevent illicit distribution or 
     use of such articles; and any gaps in personnel, resourcing, 
     or technologies to facilitate these efforts. The briefing 
     shall also include a discussion of any relevant lessons 
     learned from accountability and end-use monitoring of U.S. 
     assistance in Ukraine for assistance to U.S.

[[Page H9492]]

     partners in potential future conflicts, and a discussion of 
     the applicability of past accountability and end-use 
     monitoring lessons learned for assistance to Ukraine.

         China
       The House bill contained provisions (secs. 1301, 1309, and 
     1316) that would modify the reporting requirements for the

     of the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 
     2000 (Public Law 106-65), as amended.

     space and network systems, as appropriate.
     Sec. 1252--Modification of Indo-Pacific Maritime Security 
         Initiative to authorize use of funds for the Coast Guard
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 1243) that 
     would modify the Indo-Pacific Maritime Security Initiative 
     (MSI), authorized by section 1263 of the National Defense 
     Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2016 (Public Law 114-92), 
     as amended, to authorize the Secretary of Defense to utilize 
     funds under the authority to facilitate participation of U.S.

     training, exercises, and other activities with foreign 
     partners under the MSI.

     through the Quad's Indo-Pacific Maritime Domain Awareness

         the People's Republic of China in rim of the Pacific 
         (RIMPAC) naval exercises to include cessation of genocide

       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1315) that would 
     amend section 1259(a)(1) of the John S. McCain National 
     Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2019 (Public Law 
     115-232) to require the Secretary of Defense to certify that 
     China has ceased committing ongoing genocide in China, 
     recognized and apologized for committing such genocide, and 
     engaged in a credible justice and accountability process for 
     all victims of such genocide prior to lifting the prohibition 
     on China's participation in the Rim of the Pacific naval 
     exercises.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.

     amendment that would make clarifying changes.
     Sec. 1254--Extension and modification of Pacific Deterrence 
         Initiative
       The House bill contained provisions (secs. 1305 and 1307) 
     that would amend section 1251 of the William M. (Mac) 
     Thornberry National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 
     2021 (Public Law 116-283) related to the Pacific Deterrence 
     Initiative (PDI) and the independent assessment of the 
     Commander of United States Indo-Pacific Command 
     (USINDOPACOM).
       The House bill also contained a provision (sec. 1306) that 
     would require a report by the Commander of USINDOPACOM 
     describing the support and sustainment for critical 
     capabilities in the USINDOPACOM area of responsibility that 
     are necessary to meet operational requirements in a conflict 
     with a strategic competitor of a duration that exceeds six 
     months.
       The Senate amendment contained a similar provision (sec. 
     1241) that would extend and modify the PDI.
       The agreement includes a provision that would combine 
     relevant portions of the Senate and the House of 
     Representatives provisions and make other clarifying and 
     conforming changes.
       We direct the Commander of USINDOPACOM, as part of the 
     briefing on the Commander's independent assessment, to 
     provide:
       (1) An assessment of the feasibility and advisability of 
     enhancing defense cooperation with allies and partners in the 
     Indo-Pacific; and
       (2) A description of the support and sustainment for 
     critical capabilities in the USINDOPACOM area of 
     responsibility that are necessary to meet operational 
     requirements in a conflict with a strategic competitor of a 
     duration that exceeds six months.
       We reiterate our strong support for the PDI as means to 
     prioritize Department of Defense efforts in support of 
     enhancing U.S. deterrence and defense posture, reassuring 
     allies and partners, and increasing readiness and capability 
     in the Indo-Pacific region, primarily west of the 
     International Date Line. The budgetary display below captures 
     investments included in this Act that support the objectives 
     of the PDI.

       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 1213) that 
     would direct the Secretary of Defense to conduct an 
     assessment and report on the adequacy of authorities to 
     provide assistance to military and security forces in the 
     area of responsibility of U.S. Africa Command (AFRICOM).
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The agreement does not include this provision.
       We note the continuing security challenges in the AFRICOM 
     area of responsibility posed by metastasizing violent 
     extremist organizations affiliated with ISIS and al-Qaeda. We 
     also note that current implementation of authorities 
     available to the Secretary of Defense to provide support to 
     African partners to address these security challenges can be 
     inefficient when seeking to address emergent and time-
     sensitive requirements. We believe that a flexible and 
     responsive approach to security cooperation also supports 
     stability and governance, while limiting the influence of 
     competitors like China and Russia, particularly in Africa.
       Therefore, we direct the Secretary of Defense, in 
     consultation with the AFRICOM Commander, to conduct an 
     assessment on the adequacy of authorities available to the 
     Secretary for the purpose of providing support, including 
     training, equipment, supplies and services, facility and 
     infrastructure repair and renovation, and sustainment, to 
     military and other security forces of governments in the area 
     of responsibility of AFRICOM that are actively engaged in 
     defending their territory and people from the threat posed by 
     ISIS and al-Qaeda, and associated violent extremist 
     organizations.
       The assessment shall, at a minimum:
       (1) Identify any gaps in existing authorities and 
     associated resourcing that would inhibit the ability of the 
     Secretary to pursue AFRICOM theater campaign plan objectives, 
     including the ability to respond to emergent and time-
     sensitive requirements;
       (2) Assess existing policies, procedures, and associated 
     timelines used by the Department of Defense to identify, 
     validate, resource, and deliver support in the AFRICOM area 
     of responsibility;
       (3) Assess the adequacy of such policies, procedures, and 
     associated timelines for the provision of support to address 
     emergent and time-sensitive challenges;
       (4) Identify opportunities to streamline or otherwise 
     modify existing policies, procedures, and associated 
     timelines to expedite the delivery of such support in the 
     AFRICOM area of responsibility, as appropriate; and
       (5) Any other matters the Secretary deems relevant.
       The findings of the required assessment shall be submitted 
     to the Committees on Armed Services of the Senate and the 
     House of Representatives not later than March 30, 2023.

     encourage the free flow of information to better enable the 
     Iranian people to communicate with each other and the outside 
     world, whether existing United States policy impedes the 
     ability of Iranians to circumvent the Iranian government's 
     attempts to block access to the internet, and a review of the 
     legal exemptions that would authorize access to information 
     technology.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.

     any way.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The agreement does not include this provision.
       We believe that the deployment of United States and other 
     NATO forces in Europe should not be constrained by the NATO-
     Russia Founding Act.
     Prohibition on Russian participation in the G7
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1239) that would 
     state the policy of the United States is to exclude Russia 
     from the Group of Seven or a reconstituted Group of Eight,

     occurred, and an updated assessment of Russian nuclear 
     doctrine and thresholds for nuclear employment based on its 
     conduct during its war against Ukraine.
     Cross-functional team for matters relating to the People's 
         Republic of China
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 1249) that 
     would direct the Secretary of Defense to establish a cross-
     functional team to integrate Department of Defense efforts to 
     address national security challenges posed by China using the 
     authority provided pursuant to section 911(c) of the National

       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.

       We recognize the importance of proactive, interagency 
     efforts to counter gray zone activities and other hybrid 
     warfare methods below the threshold of traditional armed 
     conflict that run contrary to U.S. national interests. 
     Therefore, we direct the Secretary of Defense and the 
     Secretary of State, in coordination with appropriate heads of 
     other U.S. departments and agencies, to provide a briefing to 
     Congress on interagency efforts to counter gray zone 
     activities and other hybrid warfare methods employed by 
     strategic competitors and other foreign actors. At a minimum, 
     the briefing should: (1) Identify specific gray zone 
     activities and other hybrid warfare methods below the 
     threshold of traditional armed conflict that threaten U.S. 
     national interests; (2) Describe the available means among 
     the instruments of U.S. national power for countering those

     activities and methods.

     (Public Law 116-92).
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The agreement does not include this provision.
       We note that regional instability remains a source of 
     insecurity and a threat to U.S. national security interests. 
     In recent years, significant steps have been taken to address 
     sources of destabilization, including the interagency's 
     development of the Stabilization Assistance Review and 
     development of a Global Fragility Strategy under the Global 
     Fragility Act of 2019 (title V of Division J of Public Law 
     116-94).
       Further, we note that the Department of Defense has yet to 
     use the section 1210A authority to provide support for the 
     stabilization activities conducted by the United States 
     Government interagency.
       Therefore, we direct the Secretary of Defense to provide a 
     briefing, not later than March 1, 2023, to the Committees on 
     Armed Services of the Senate and the House of Representatives 
     on the Department's approach to using the 1210A authority,

     to provide support under section 1201A; (2) The status of 
     current proposals for 1210A support; and (3) An assessment of 
     challenges for the use of the section 1210A authority going 
     forward.

         Armenian prisoners of war
       The House bill contained provisions (secs. 1350 and 5874) 
     that would express the sense of Congress that Azerbaijan must 
     immediately and unconditionally return all Armenian prisoners 
     of war and captured civilians and would require the Secretary 
     of State to submit a report on United States security 
     assistance provided to the Government of Azerbaijan under 
     section 907 of the FREEDOM Support Act (22 U.S.C. 5812 note). 
     The House bill also contained a provision (sec. 1343) that 
     would require the Secretary of Defense to submit a report on 
     Azerbaijan.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The agreement does not include these provisions.
       We condemn the September 2022 violations of the November 9, 
     2020, ceasefire agreement between Armenia and Azerbaijan. The 
     use of force or the threat of force to pursue diplomatic or 
     military objectives in relation to the cease-fire agreement 
     and the conflict between both countries has been, and 
     remains, completely unacceptable. We emphatically urge the 
     parties to the conflict to adhere to their commitment under 
     the agreement, including respect for each other's 
     sovereignty, territorial integrity, and the inviolability of 
     borders. We urge the parties to the conflict to refrain from 
     the use of force and threats to use force and redouble 
     efforts toward a diplomatic resolution to the conflict.
       We note positive steps taken toward peace, including the 
     return of 17 prisoners of war (POW) from Azerbaijan to 
     Armenia. Continued detention of POWs in violation of the laws 
     of war and international commitments is unacceptable. We call 
     upon the parties to abide by their commitments to return all 
     POWs and immediately release all captured civilians.
       We call on the United States to engage at all levels with 
     parties to the conflict, including through the Organization 
     for Security and Co-operation in Europe Minsk Group process, 
     to make clear the importance of adhering to international 
     obligations and commitments.
       We underscore that the report on Azerbaijan outlined in 
     section 1343 of the House bill is already required in statute 
     by section 1302 of the National Defense Authorization Act for 
     Fiscal Year 2022 (Public Law 117-81). The report was due 180 
     days after the date of enactment, but the Department of 
     Defense has not yet submitted the report to the relevant 
     congressional committees. The Department must deliver this 
     report as soon as possible.

       The agreement does not include this provision.
       We condemn the ongoing violence and the systematic gross

     Lake Chad Basin carried out by Boko Haram. We express our 
     support for the people of Nigeria and the Lake Chad Basin who 
     wish to live in a peaceful, economically prosperous, and 
     democratic region. The United States must continue to support 
     efforts to ensure accountability for crimes against humanity 
     committed by Boko Haram against the people of Nigeria and the 
     Lake Chad Basin, particularly the young girls kidnapped from 
     Chibok and other internally displaced persons affected by the 
     actions of Boko Haram.
       We direct the Secretary of Defense, not later than June 1, 
     2023, to brief the congressional defense committees on the

                   LEGISLATIVE PROVISIONS NOT ADOPTED

     Cyber threat information collaboration environment program
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1504) that would 
     direct the Secretary of Homeland Security, in coordination 
     with the Secretary of Defense and the Director of National 
     Intelligence, acting through the Director of the National 
     Security Agency (NSA), to develop an information 
     collaboration environment to enable government and industry 
     to better identify, mitigate, and prevent malicious cyber 
     activity through shared understanding of cyber threats and 
     events. The collaboration environment would provide limited 
     access to appropriate operationally relevant data about 
     cybersecurity risks and cybersecurity threats, including 
     malware forensics and data from network sensor programs, on a 
     platform that enables query and analysis.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The agreement does not include this provision.
       However, we note that the need for government and private 
     sector stakeholders to be able to share and consume 
     cybersecurity-related information on a single platform, or at 
     least achieve interoperability across the information 
     technology systems used for situational awareness and threat 
     assessment, remains as urgent as ever. While we believe that 
     the lead for this effort ought to reside within the 
     Department of Homeland Security (DHS), there remains an 
     important role for Department of Defense components and 
     entities such as the NSA. Noting that there may be related 
     efforts that DHS' Cybersecurity & Infrastructure Security 
     Agency (CISA) is currently exploring with federal partners, 
     we direct the Director of NSA, in consultation with the 
     Director of CISA, not later than April 30th, 2023, to conduct 
     a study and brief the Committees on Armed Services of the 
     Senate and the House of Representatives on how Department of 
     Defense components and entities, such as the NSA, can support 
     the development of the environment envisioned by the House 
     provision. Additionally, the study shall assess how NSA can 
     technically and materially support the current nascent 
     efforts at CISA, and report to the committees with a detailed 
     analysis of: (1) The expertise, policies, and resources 
     required to support the development, deployment, operation, 
     security, and maintenance of a collaboration environment; (2) 
     The classified and unclassified platforms, systems, and 
     processes currently employed by the Department of Defense for 
     information sharing across the Department, with interagency 
     partners, and with the private sector, and a determination of 
     how such tools and platforms can be leveraged by CISA and the 
     wider interagency; (3) A cost estimate for a collaboration 
     environment based on the aforementioned elements of the 
     assessment; and (4) Any other matter as determined by the NSA 
     Director.
     Department of Defense enterprise-wide procurement of cyber 
         data products and services
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1505) that would 
     amend section 1521 of the National Defense Authorization Act 
     for Fiscal Year 2022 (Public Law 117-81) by inserting 
     reference to products utilizing artificial intelligence-based 
     endpoint security.

     Military operations in information environment: authority and 
         notifications
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1511) that would 
     require the Department of Defense to notify the appropriate 
     congressional committees within 48 hours of conducting a 
     clandestine operation in the information environment. This 
     section would also make technical changes affirming the 
     external nature of Department operations in the information 
     environment.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The agreement does not include this provision.
       We note that the agreement includes provisions to enhance 
     oversight of Department operations in the information 
     environment, including both military information support 
     operations and cyberspace operations. However, we are 
     concerned that there is not yet sufficient clarity on how the 
     Department of Defense plans, executes, mans, trains, and 
     equips for electromagnetic spectrum operations (EMSO).
       We therefore direct the Department to submit to the 
     congressional defense committees not later than 180 days 
     following the enactment of this Act a briefing outlining, 
     with respect to EMSO:
       (1) The authorities governing operational activities;
       (2) The level of delegation of those authorities in various 
     operational scenarios;
       (3) Coordination and integration of EMSO activities with 
     other operations in the information and other domains;
       (4) Stakeholders and equities with regard to EMSO doctrine 
     and employment; and
       (5) Metrics and other mechanisms for evaluation of activity 
     effectiveness, oversight, and development of future concepts 
     of operations. As part of this briefing, the Department 
     should provide current operational vignettes illustrative of 
     the full lifecycle of electromagnetic spectrum operations.
       Consistency in delegation of certain authorities relating 
     to information operations
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1514) that would 
     clarify the ability of the Under Secretary of Defense for 
     Policy to delegate roles and responsibilities related to 
     information operations.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The agreement does not include this provision.
     Standardization of authority to operate applications in the 
         Department of Defense
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1534) that would 
     require the Chief Information Officer of the Department of 
     Defense to establish a policy with criteria for the 
     reciprocity of authority to operate for software and hardware 
     between all networks of the Department of Defense.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The agreement does not include this provision. We note that 
     the agreement includes a provision from the Senate amendment 
     (sec. 1622) that requires the Chief Digital and Artificial 
     Intelligence Officer to develop and report an actionable plan 
     to the Deputy Secretary of Defense to reform the authority to 
     operate process.
     Establishment of hacking for national security and public 
         service innovation program
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1535) that would 
     require the Secretary of Defense to establish a Hacking for 
     National Security and Public Service Innovation Program 
     within the National Security Innovation Network.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The agreement does not include this provision.
       We recognize the success of the National Security 
     Innovation Network (NSIN) in encouraging the entry of new 
     innovators into the national security community and believe 
     that such a model has applicability for challenges faced by 
     the Department of Defense and by other Federal departments 
     and agencies. We encourage the Secretary of Defense to use 
     existing authorities to strengthen NSIN and create additional 
     opportunities for collaboration and shared experience between 
     the Department of Defense, other Federal agencies, the 
     private sector, and academia through the expansion of 
     existing programs, partnerships, and activities, including, 
     but not limited to, such activities as Hacking for Defense, 
     Hacking for Homeland Security, Hacking for Diplomacy, Hacking 
     for Space, and Hacking for Manufacturing. We believe that 
     such efforts are an important part of the Department's 
     efforts to invest in the future of national security 
     innovation by inspiring a new generation to public service, 
     supporting the diversity of the United States' national 
     security innovation workforce, and modernizing government 
     decision-making processes.

     would require the Secretary of Defense to complete a review, 
     not later than 180 days after the date of the enactment of 
     this Act, of the Departmental guidance and processes 
     consistent with section 167b(d)(2)(A)
       (x) of title 10, United States Code, with respect to the 
     authority of the Commander, U.S. Cyber Command, to monitor 
     the promotions of certain cyber operations forces and 
     coordinate with the Secretaries of military departments 
     regarding the assignment, retention, training, professional 
     military education, and special and incentive pays of certain 
     cyber operations forces. The provision would also require the 
     Secretary of Defense to submit to the congressional defense 
     committees a report on the review not later than 90 days 
     after the date on which the review is completed.

     Secretary of State and Director for National Intelligence, to 
     develop a technical fielding plan to deliver information from 
     the Shared Early Warning System regarding current and 
     imminent missile threats to allies and partners. This section 
     would also require a report on how rapid fielding of this 
     information to additional countries could be provided to 
     allies and partners of the United States that do not 
     currently receive the data, and are under imminent threat of 
     missile attack.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.

     National Security Space Launch program
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1603) that would 
     express the sense of Congress regarding the acquisition 
     approach for phase three of the National Security Space 
     Launch (NSSL) program, and would require quarterly briefings 
     to the appropriate committees on the development of the phase 
     three acquisition strategy. The section would also require 
     that the Commander of Space Systems Command notify the 
     defense and intelligence committees following completion of 
     mission assignment boards for phase two of the NSSL program.
       The Senate amendment contained a similar provision (sec. 
     1505) that requires phase two launch providers to meet 
     Federal requirements with respect to payloads and orbits.
       The agreement does not include these provisions.
       We note the continued importance of assured access to 
     space, and believe that in carrying out phase two of the 
     acquisition strategy for the National Security Space Launch 
     program, the Secretary of the Air Force should ensure that 
     launch services are procured only from launch service 
     providers that use launch vehicles meeting Federal 
     requirements with respect to required payloads to reference 
     orbits. With regard to phase two, we direct that during 
     fiscal year 2023, the Commander of Space System Command 
     provide a briefing to the congressional defense committees 
     not later than 14 days following completion of a mission 
     assignment board on the assignments made during the covered 
     period.
       Regarding phase three, we are encouraged by the work 
     completed to date by the Space Systems Command in developing 
     an acquisition strategy for phase three of the National 
     Security Space Launch program. As the phase three acquisition 
     strategy continues to be refined, we believe that:
       (1) The acquisition approach for phase three of the 
     National Security Space Launch program should account for 
     changes in the launch industry;
       (2) The supply of launches for phase three may be impacted 
     by increases in commercial space launch demand;
       (3) The Secretary of the Air Force should explore new and 
     innovative acquisition approaches to leverage launch 
     competition within the commercial market; and
       (4) In developing the acquisition strategy for phase three, 
     the Secretary should--

[[Page H9511]]

       (a) consider the scope of phase three manifest requirements 
     in comparison to the Orbital Services Program and other 
     potential contract vehicles for launches;
       (b) ensure the continued assured access to space;
       (c) emphasize free, fair, and open competition;
       (d) capitalize on competition across the commercial launch 
     industry;
       (e) examine all possible options for awarding contracts for 
     launches during the period covered by the phase, including: 
     block buys; indefinite delivery, indefinite quantity; or a 
     hybrid approach;
       (f) consider tailorable mission assurance options informed 
     by previous launch vehicle performance metrics;
       (g) include options for adding launch providers, launch 
     systems, or both, during the execution of phase three to 
     address manifest changes beyond the planned national security 
     space unique launches at the time of initial award;
       (h) maintain understanding of the commercial launch 
     industry and launch capacity needed to fulfill the 
     requirements of the National Security Space Launch program; 
     and
       (i) allow for rapid development and on-orbit deployment of 
     enabling and transformational technologies required to 
     address emerging requirements, including with respect to--
       (i) Delivery of in-space transportation, logistics, and on-
     orbit servicing capabilities to enhance the persistence, 
     sensitivity, and resiliency of national security space 
     missions in a contested space environment;
       (ii) Proliferated Low Earth orbit constellation deployment;
       (iii) Routine access to extended orbits beyond 
     geostationary orbits, including cislunar orbits;
       (iv) Payload fairings that exceed current launch 
     requirements;
       (v) Increased responsiveness for heavy lift capability;
       (vi) The ability to transfer orbits, including point-to-
     point orbital transfers;
       (vii) Capacity and capability to execute secondary 
     deployments;
       (viii) High-performance upper stages;
       (ix) Vertical integration; and
       (x) Other new missions that are outside the parameters of 
     the nine design reference missions that exist as of the date 
     of the enactment of this Act.
       To ensure that the congressional defense committees remain 
     aware of phase three acquisition strategy progress, we direct 
     that not later than 90 days after date of enactment, and 
     quarterly through fiscal year 2023, the Commander of Space 
     Systems Command brief the congressional defense and 
     intelligence committees on the development of the phase three 
     acquisition strategy, including how the matters described 
     above are being considered in such strategy.
     Sense of the Senate and briefing on nuclear cooperation 
         between the United States and the United Kingdom
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 1517) that 
     would express the sense of the Senate that the independent 
     nuclear deterrents of the United States, the United Kingdom, 
     and the French Republic are the supreme guarantee of the 
     security of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO). 
     The provision would further express the sense of the Senate 
     that the United States and the United Kingdom face similar 
     challenges in modernizing their aging nuclear deterrents and 
     that continued nuclear cooperation between the United States 
     and the United Kingdom is in the national security interests 
     of the United States. Finally, the provision would also 
     require a briefing on opportunities to further enhance and 
     strengthen the bilateral partnership between the nuclear 
     enterprises of the United States and the United Kingdom.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The agreement does not include this provision.
       We believe the following:
       (1) The United States strategic nuclear deterrent, and the 
     independent strategic nuclear deterrents of the United 
     Kingdom and the French Republic, are the supreme guarantee of 
     the security of the NATO alliance and continue to underwrite 
     peace and security for all members of the NATO alliance;
       (2) The security of the NATO alliance also relies upon 
     nuclear sharing arrangements that predate, and are fully 
     consistent with, the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of 
     Nuclear Weapons, done at Washington, London, and Moscow on 
     July 1, 1968, and entered into force on March 5, 1970 
     (commonly referred to as the ``Nuclear Non-Proliferation 
     Treaty'');
       (3) Such arrangements provide for the forward deployment of 
     United States nuclear weapons in Europe, along with the 
     supporting capabilities, infrastructure, and dual-capable 
     aircraft dedicated to the delivery of United States nuclear 
     weapons, provided by European NATO allies;
       (4) In parallel to the independent commitments of the 
     United States and the United Kingdom to the enduring security 
     of NATO, the nuclear programs of the United States and the 
     United Kingdom have enjoyed significant collaborative 
     benefits as a result of the cooperative relationship 
     formalized in the Agreement for Cooperation on the Uses of 
     Atomic Energy for Mutual Defense Purposes, signed at 
     Washington on July 3, 1958, and entered into force on August 
     4, 1958, between the United States and the United Kingdom 
     (commonly referred to as the ``Mutual Defense Agreement'');
       (5) The unique partnership between the United States and 
     the United Kingdom has enhanced sovereign military and 
     scientific capabilities, strengthened bilateral ties, and 
     resulted in the sharing of costs;
       (6) As the international security environment deteriorates 
     and potential adversaries expand and enhance their nuclear 
     forces, the extended deterrence commitments of the United 
     Kingdom play an increasingly important role in supporting the 
     security interests of the United States and allies of the 
     United States and the United Kingdom;
       (7) Additionally, the extension of the nuclear deterrence 
     commitments of the United Kingdom to members of the NATO 
     alliance strengthens collective security while reducing the 
     burden placed on United States nuclear forces to deter 
     potential adversaries and assure allies of the United States;
       (8) It is in the national security interest of the United 
     States to support the United Kingdom with respect to the 
     decision of the Government of the United Kingdom to maintain 
     its nuclear forces to deter countries that are 
     ``significantly increasing and diversifying their nuclear 
     arsenals'' and ``investing in novel nuclear technologies and 
     developing new `warfighting' nuclear systems'' that could 
     threaten NATO allies, as outlined in the March 2021 report of 
     the Government of the United Kingdom entitled, ``Global 
     Britain in a Competitive Age: The Integrated Review of 
     Security, Defence, Development and Foreign Policy'';
       (9) As the United States continues to modernize its aging 
     nuclear forces to ensure its ability to continue to field a 
     nuclear deterrent that is safe, secure, and effective, the 
     United Kingdom faces a similar challenge;
       (10) Bilateral cooperation on such programs as the Trident 
     II D5 weapons system, the common missile compartment for the 
     future Dreadnought and Columbia classes of submarines, and 
     the parallel development of the W93/Mk7 warhead of the United 
     States and the replacement warhead of the United Kingdom, 
     will allow the United States and the United Kingdom to 
     responsibly address challenges within their legacy nuclear 
     forces in a cost-effective manner that preserves independent, 
     sovereign control; is consistent with each country's 
     obligations under the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty; and 
     supports nonproliferation objectives; and
       (11) Continued cooperation between the nuclear programs of 
     United States and the United Kingdom is essential to ensuring 
     that the NATO alliance continues to be supported by credible 
     nuclear forces capable of preserving peace, preventing 
     coercion, and deterring aggression.
       We direct the Under Secretary of Defense for Acquisition 
     and Sustainment, not later than March 4, 2023, to brief the 
     Committees on Armed Services of the Senate and the House of 
     Representatives, the Senate Committee on Foreign Relations, 
     and the House Foreign Affairs Committee on opportunities to 
     further enhance and strengthen the bilateral partnership 
     between the nuclear enterprises of the United States and the 
     United Kingdom, including potential cooperation in areas such 
     as advanced manufacturing, microelectronics, supercomputing, 
     and production modernization.
     Limitation on use of funds until submission of reports on 
         intercontinental ballistic missile force
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 1518) that 
     would limit the amount obligated or expended for the 
     operations of the Office of the Under Secretary of Defense 
     for Policy to not more than 50 percent of the amount 
     authorized by this Act until the Department of Defense 
     provides the reports and documents required by section 1647 
     of the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 
     2022 (Public Law 117-81).
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The agreement does not include this provision.
     Funding for research and development of advanced naval 
         nuclear fuel system based on low-enriched uranium
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1624) that would 
     increase funding for Defense Nuclear Nonproliferation 
     Research and Development by $20.0 million for the purpose of 
     Low-Enriched Uranium Research and Development for Naval 
     Pressurized Reactors.
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 1521) that 
     would limit the use of funds made available in fiscal year 
     2023 for the purposes of conducting research and development 
     of an advanced naval nuclear fuel system based on low-
     enriched uranium until certain determinations and reports are 
     provided to the congressional defense committees.
       The agreement does not include these provisions.
     Technical amendment to additional report matters on strategic 
         delivery systems
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 1530) that 
     would make technical corrections to section 495(b) of title 
     10, United States Code.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The agreement does not include this provision.
     Sense of Congress on Range of the Future and support to 
         commercial space launch activity
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1608) that would 
     express the sense of Congress on the Range of the Future 
     initiative

[[Page H9512]]

     and encourage further interagency collaboration on options to 
     improve the infrastructure at Department of Defense launch 
     ranges and spaceports.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The agreement does not include this provision.
       We believe the following:
       (1) Section 1610 of the National Defense Authorization Act 
     for Fiscal Year 2022 (Public Law 117-81) contained a 
     provision requiring the United States Space Force to deliver 
     a report on its Range of the Future initiative;
       (2) Based on the details in that report, that the Nation's 
     launch service providers, consistent with decades of national 
     policy, now lead the world in space access, that United 
     States leadership in this strategic capability is critical 
     to national security and economic vitality, and that it is 
     critical to the Nation to continue encouraging and 
     enabling United States space access capabilities to 
     flourish and expand;
       (3) The rapid growth of the commercial launch industry 
     places a growing demand on Department of Defense resources at 
     Federal space launch ranges, and that this demand growth will 
     continue for the foreseeable future;
       (4) The 1960s-era infrastructure of the two Department of 
     Defense launch ranges primarily responsible for meeting its 
     assured access to space mission under section 2273 of title 
     10, United States Code, and complying with section 2276 of 
     such title, is under increasing strain, and needs to be 
     replaced with a modern, state of the art launch 
     infrastructure that encourages and enables continued growth 
     and leadership in space access;
       (5) Maintenance of common use critical infrastructure like 
     roads, culverts, bridges, deluge and water treatment 
     facilities, supply lines, and electrical networks, among 
     others, require immediate attention;
       (6) Investments in infrastructure have not kept pace with 
     commercial demand primarily due to existing authorities which 
     limit reimbursement, flexible financial investment 
     facilities, and reinvestment of revenue in spaceport 
     sustainment, modernization, and growth;
       (7) The burgeoning commercial space industry requires a 
     more holistic, responsive process leveraging public and 
     private investment;
       (8) The Department of Defense is constrained to provide 
     services to commercial users only when not needed for public 
     use, yet at the same time mustpromote commercial space launch 
     capabilities as a critical enabler to national security;
       (9) The United States Space Force has made great use of 
     existing authorities and those provided by other non-Federal 
     entities to leverage other sources of commercial and State 
     investment to keep pace with demand;
       (10) A similar State business development entity would be 
     useful for supporting commercial space launch capability 
     development in California at Vandenberg Space Force Base and 
     other spaceports, and Congress looks forward to assisting the 
     Department of Defense in improving its ability to plan and 
     support commercial innovation while continuing to provide 
     world class launch and test facilities; and
       (11) The Secretary of Defense and the Department should 
     engage with all stakeholders, including National Aeronautics 
     and Space Administration, other relevant Federal agencies, 
     and the associated congressional authorizing committees of 
     jurisdiction, in any reporting, negotiation, policy, and 
     potential legislative proposals on this matter.
     Report on hyperspectral satellite technology
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1609) that would

     Integration to jointly submit to the congressional defense 
     committees a plan for a pilot program for the deployment of 
     dedicated X-band small satellite communications technologies 
     that may support current and future requirements of special 
     operations forces. The House bill also contained a provision 
     (sec. 1612) that would require the Secretary of the Air Force 
     and the Secretary of State, in consultation with the Chief of 
     Space Operations, to provide a report to the congressional 
     committees that identifies opportunities to deploy 
     stratospheric balloons, aerostats, or satellite technology 
     capable of rapidly delivering wireless internet anywhere on 
     the planet from the stratosphere or higher.
       The Senate contained no similar provisions.
       The agreement does not include these provisions.
       We direct that not later than 120 days after the date of 
     the enactment of this Act, the Secretary of the Air Force, in 
     consultation with the Chief of Space Operations, shall 
     provide a report to the congressional defense committees that 
     identifies opportunities to deploy innovative technological 
     solutions such as stratospheric balloons, aerostats, or 
     satellite technology capable of rapidly delivering wireless 
     internet anywhere on the planet from the stratosphere or 
     higher for use by the Department of Defense. The report shall 
     identify commercial options as well as options developed by 
     the Department of Defense. This report shall also detail the 
     feasibility of a pilot program for the deployment of 
     dedicated Department of Defense X-band small satellite 
     communications technologies that includes a description of 
     authorities needed to execute, timeline for implementation 
     and duration of the program, and costs per fiscal year to 
     develop, deploy, and operate the pilot program.
     Information on cover provided by Department of Defense
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1623) that would 
     require a report on cover and cover support activities of the 
     Department of Defense.

       The agreement does not include this provision.
     Limitation on availability of funds until submission of 
         report on layered defense for the homeland
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1644) that would 
     restrict funds for the Office of the Secretary of Defense for 
     operating the Office of Space Policy, until the ``Layered 
     Defense of the Homeland'' report is delivered to Congress.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The agreement does not include this provision as the report 
     has been delivered.
     Report on gun launched interceptor technologies
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1652) that would 
     require the Secretary of Defense to submit to the 
     congressional defense committees a report containing an 
     assessment of the need for gun-launched interceptor 
     technologies, and a funding profile, by year, of the total 
     cost of integrating and testing such technologies that are 
     under development.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The agreement does not include this provision.
       We direct the Deputy Secretary of Defense, in coordination 
     with the Vice Chairman, Joint Chiefs of Staff, the Secretary 
     of Army, and the Director, Defense Advanced Research Projects 
     Agency, to provide to the congressional defense committees,

     Report on radiation hardened, thermally insensitive 
         telescopes for SM-3 interceptor
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1653) that would 
     require the Secretary of Defense, acting through the Director 
     of the Missile Defense Agency, to submit to the congressional 
     defense committees a report on radiation hardened, thermally 
     insensitive telescopes for the SM-3 interceptor.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The agreement does not include this provision.
       We direct the Secretary of Defense, acting through the 
     Director of the Missile Defense Agency, not later than March 
     31, 2023, to submit a report to the congressional defense 
     committees containing:
       (1) An assessment of the requirement to develop radiation 
     hardened, thermally insensitive sensors for missile defense; 
     and
       (2) A funding profile, by year, of the total cost of 
     integrating and testing such sensors that are under 
     development.
     Sense of the Senate on personnel for the Space Development 
         Agency
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 6501) that 
     would express the sense of the Senate that as the Space 
     Development Agency (SDA) transfers into the United States 
     Space Force in October 2022, the SDA should retain the 
     original organization structure including three Senior 
     Executive Service (SES) positions.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The agreement does not include this provision.
       We understand that that the Space Development Agency, (SDA) 
     which transferred to

[[Page H9513]]

     the Space Force on October 1, 2022, will retain three Senior 
     Executive Service (SES) Branch positions from the Office of 
     the Secretary of Defense (OSD) that are term-limited ending 
     on December 31, 2023. After December 31, 2023, these three 
     SES billets will return to the pool of SES positions held by 
     the OSD. As found in section 1601 of the National Defense 
     Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2021 (Public Law 116-283), 
     which effectuated this transfer, the Congress was explicit 
     to the Department of Defense to do no harm in the transfer 
     given the no-fail mission entrusted to the SDA for missile 
     warning to protect the homeland. Section 1601(d)(2) states 
     that ``the transfer under paragraph (1) [requiring the 
     transfer to be not later than October 1, 2022] of the 
     Space Development Agency from the Office of the Secretary 
     of Defense to the Space Force shall include the transfer 
     of funding, duties, responsibilities and personnel of the 
     Agency as of the day before the date of transfer.'' In 
     addition, the conference report to section 1601 (House 
     Report 116-617) states that the congress expects that the 
     director of the SDA ``to retain the equivalent position of 
     tier 3 Senior Executive Service or an official of the 
     Armed Forces in grade O-9.'' Overall, the Department of 
     Defense historically only fills around 85 percent of total 
     SES allocations, while the Space Force has a total of 16 
     SES permanent positions.
       Therefore, we strongly encourage the Secretary of Defense 
     to permanently allocate three SES positions to the SDA to 
     meet congressional intent as found in section 1601 of the 
     National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2021. We 
     direct the Secretary of Defense, in consultation with the 
     Secretary of the Air Force, to brief to the congressional 
     defense committees not later than March 31, 2023, on efforts 
     to ensure the SDA has three SES positions that are permanent 
     and do not count against the 16 SES positions currently held 
     by the Space Force.
     Assessment of readiness and survivability of strategic forces 
         of the United States
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 8102) that 
     would require the Secretary of Defense, in coordination with 
     the Joint Chiefs of Staff and the Commander of the United 
     States Strategic Command, to submit to the congressional 
     defense committees a report on the readiness and 
     survivability of the strategic forces of the United States, 
     including recommendations for improving such readiness and 
     survivability.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The agreement does not include this provision.
       We direct the Secretary of Defense, in coordination with 
     the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff and the Commander 
     of United States Strategic Command, to submit to the 
     congressional defense committees a report on the readiness 
     and survivability of the strategic forces of the United 
     States.

       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The agreement includes the House provision.
     Sec. 1703--Quarterly briefings on replenishment and 
         revitalization of weapons provided to Ukraine
       The House bill contained provisions (secs. 1703 and 1710) 
     that would express senses of Congress on replenishment and 
     revitalization of stocks of tactical missiles and defensive 
     and offensive weapons provided to Ukraine. The provisions 
     would also require quarterly briefings on efforts to 
     replenish and revitalize such stocks within the Department of 
     Defense, and quarterly briefings on efforts to replenish and 
     revitalize such ally and partner stocks.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The agreement includes the House provisions with an 
     amendment that would eliminate the senses of Congress and 
     refine the elements of the briefings.
     Sec. 1704--Assessment of requirements and acquisition 
         objectives for Patriot air and missile defense battalions
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1704) that would 
     make certain findings and express the sense of Congress 
     regarding the importance of air and missile defense 
     capabilities, require an assessment of the validity of 
     existing battalion and interceptor acquisition objectives, 
     provide a report on such assessment to the congressional 
     defense committees, and provide additional authority to 
     procure, subject to the availability of appropriations, up to 
     four additional Patriot battalions for a total of 20 such 
     battalions.

     amendment.
     Sec. 1705--Independent assessment of Department of Defense 
         capability and capacity needs for munitions production 
         and stockpiling
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1705) that would 
     express the sense of Congress regarding the importance of 
     understanding the defense industrial base's ability to 
     replenish critical weapon inventories, as well as require a 
     study by a federally funded research and development center 
     to conduct a detailed analysis of the capability of the 
     Department of Defense to replenish such critical weapon 
     inventories.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The agreement includes the House provision with an 
     amendment that would require the independent assessment focus 
     on the process used to develop Total Munitions Requirement 
     under 10 USC 222c for certain munitions, including, (1) The 
     sufficiency of the requirement and how views from the 
     combatant commands are incorporated; (2) Whether partner or 
     allied contributions are represented; (3) The consideration 
     of protracted warfare scenarios or potential simultaneous 
     conflicts; and (4) The degree to which elements of 10 USC 
     222c(c) are appropriate functional categories, in addition to 
     any other recommendations that could be beneficial to the 
     overall implementation of 10 USC 222c.


                   legislative provisions not adopted

     Development of technologies with respect to critical, 
         preferred, and precision-guided conventional munitions
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1702) that would 
     require the Under Secretary of Defense for Research and 
     Engineering and the Under Secretary of Defense for 
     Acquisition and Sustainment to undertake an initiative to 
     develop and invest in technologies to reduce the cost of 
     critical, preferred, and precision-guided conventional 
     munitions and their development, increase reliability and 
     lethality, simplify manufacturing processes, and diversify 
     the relevant supply chains.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The agreement does not include this provision.
     Out-Year Unconstrained Total Munitions Requirement, Out-Year 
         inventory numbers, and critical munitions reserve
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1706) that would 
     modify an existing reporting requirement to shift 
     responsibility for reporting total unconstrained munitions 
     requirement figures from the chiefs of staff of the military 
     services to the Under Secretary of Defense for Acquisition 
     and Sustainment and modify the required elements of such 
     reporting requirement, as well as the implementation guidance 
     used to generate munitions requirements. The provision would 
     also require the Under Secretary to establish a critical 
     munitions reserve for each critical munitions program and 
     provide quarterly reports to the congressional defense 
     committees on such reserves. Finally, the provision would 
     require the Under Secretary to provide an initial report to 
     the congressional defense committees, not later than 90 days 
     after the date of enactment of this Act, on the progress of 
     the Under Secretary in establishing the required reserves.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The agreement does not include this provision.
     Identification of subcontractors for critical munitions 
         contracts
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1707) that would 
     require the Under Secretary of Defense for Acquisition and 
     Sustainment to carry out a pilot program to identify 
     subcontractors for critical munitions contracts.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The agreement does not include this provision.
       We note that the matters raised in this provision are 
     addressed elsewhere in this Act.
     Study on stockpiles and production of critical guided 
         munitions
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1708) that would 
     require the Secretary of Defense to conduct a study on the 
     rate of depletion expected for certain critical munitions in 
     a large-scale conflict scenario at various levels of 
     intensity, detail certain required elements of such study, 
     and require the Secretary to provide to the congressional 
     defense committees a report and briefing on the study.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The agreement does not include this provision.
     Ukraine Critical Munitions Acquisition Fund
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1709) that would 
     establish a revolving fund to be known as the ``Ukraine 
     Critical Munitions Acquisition Fund.''
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The agreement does not include this provision.
       We note that elsewhere in this Act, we include legislative 
     provisions and funding recommendations that are intended to 
     help the Department of Defense (DOD) increase munitions 
     productions and expand the industrial base to better adjust 
     to demand in stressing conditions. However, we note the 
     challenges in balancing DOD needs and forecasting additional 
     foreign demands for US-made munitions. The current situation 
     with support to

[[Page H9514]]

     Ukraine highlights the impact exceedingly long timelines 
     associated with foreign military sales (FMS) can have in an 
     active warfighting situation. We recognize a revolving fund 
     that forward finances munitions for which FMS cases are 
     likely to help alleviate this problem by creating a 
     requirement ahead of FMS cases such that many munitions could 
     be already in production or delivered when a Letter of Offer 
     and Acceptance (LOA) is signed. Since such sales would still 
     be subject to significant congressional oversight, this would 
     also help DOD smooth production over time while maintaining 
     adequate congressional levers to ensure good stewardship of 
     the taxpayers' dollars.
       Therefore, we direct the Secretary of Defense to provide a 
     briefing not later than 150 days after the enactment of this 
     Act to the congressional defense committees on the 
     feasibility and advisability of establishing mechanisms to 
     procure in an expedited fashion munitions in advance of the 
     establishment of a formal requirement, whether for the use of 
     U.S. forces or for other purposes, including sale to foreign 
     partners or allies. This briefing shall include the following 
     elements:
       (1) A description of the current process of munitions 
     requirements generation and programming for munitions by the 
     Office of the Secretary of Defense, the Joint Staff and the

     the Secretary of Defense, in consultation with the Commander, 
     Indo-Pacific Command and Commander, European Command, to 
     provide a 3-year plan for each combatant command for

       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 2801) that 
     would amend section 2663(c) of title 10, United States Code, 
     to increase the cost limitation from $750,000 to $6.0 
     million.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The agreement does not include this provision.
     Permanent application of dollar limits for location and

       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 2809B) that 
     would require the Secretary concerned to give preference to a 
     person who certifies that at least 51 percent of the total 
     number of employees hired to perform the covered contract 
     (including any employees hired by a subcontractor (at any 
     tier) for such covered contract) shall reside in the same

     work to be performed pursuant to the covered contract.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The agreement does not include this provision.
     Privatization of Navy and Air Force transient housing
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 2814) that would 
     require the Navy and Air Force, 11 years after this provision 
     becomes law, to privatize their transient housing, prevent 
     government direct loans, government guarantees, or government 
     equity from being used to accomplish this privatization, and 
     would require consultation with the Army, which has already 
     completed the privatization process.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The agreement does not include this provision.
       We note that Chapter 169 of title 10, United States Code, 
     provides authority to the Secretaries concerned to privatize 
     lodging facilities. The Secretary of the Army implemented the 
     Privatization of Army Lodging in 2009 and has indicated cost 
     avoidance of $605.8 million since inception and $85.2 million 
     annually with better quality of facilities and higher 
     customer satisfaction. However, according to the Government 
     Accountability Office's (GAO) report published on June 9, 
     2021, titled ``Military Lodging: DOD Should Provide Congress 
     with More Information on Army's Privatization and Better 
     Guidance to the Military Services'' (GAO-21-214), found that 
     the Army may be overstating its cost avoidance due to the 
     methodology it uses to calculate said cost avoidance leaving 
     in question if the reported financial benefits of 
     privatization have actually been achieved.
       Therefore, we direct the Secretary of the Navy and the 
     Secretary of the Air Force to provide a briefing to the 
     congressional defense committees by not later than December 
     1, 2023, as to the anticipated steady state cost avoidance 
     that could be anticipated if a lodging privatization effort 
     were adopted, any barriers to implementing, and any impact to 
     traveling servicemembers. The methodology to calculate any 
     cost avoidance should take into account GAO's concerns over 
     the Army's existing process and address how and if the cost 
     avoidance metrics are impacted.

     facilities.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The agreement does not include this provision.

     command, including dates estimated to be later than September 
     30, 2028; (4) A description of the weapons currently stored 
     in each weapons storage area; (5) The date on which the Air 
     Force expects to store weapons other than those facilities 
     and areas; and (6) A mitigation plan to ensure that a weapons 
     storage area can support the safe and secure storage of 
     weapons other than those described above if required to do so 
     prior to the construction of a weapons generation facility.

     other pertinent Federal agencies, to update the plan required 
     by section 2822 of the National Defense Authorization Act for 
     Fiscal Year 2014 (Public Law 113-66) outlining completion of 
     construction, improvements, and repairs to the nonmilitary 
     utilities, facilities, and infrastructure, if any, on Guam 
     affected by the realignment of forces to reflect current and 
     future plans for the introduction of additional military and 
     supporting nonmilitary capabilities on the island.
       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The agreement does not include this provision.
       We believe that the successful implementation of future 
     Department of Defense (DOD) force laydown plans for Guam must 
     account for the additional demands on local infrastructure 
     that such personnel and equipment increases will levy. 
     Additionally, we strongly encourage the Department of Defense 
     to examine existing policies and procedures for addressing 
     unexploded ordnance that may be uncovered during excavation 
     and site preparation for future DOD facilities and equipment. 
     The Department should ensure such policies and procedures 
     support the urgency of force emplacement activities and do 
     not unnecessarily delay U.S. Indo-Pacific Command force 
     posture adjustments on the island or impose overly burdensome 
     requirements on planned programs.
       Therefore, the committee directs the Secretary of Defense, 
     not later than 30 days after submitting the Defense of Guam 
     Draft Environmental Impact Statement for public comment, to 
     provide a briefing to the congressional defense committees on 
     DOD plans for updating and expanding the capacity of existing 
     Guamanian infrastructure to support U.S. forces and 
     facilities required for the defense of Guam. Such brief 
     should address, at a minimum:
       (1) Improvements to the island's existing electrical power 
     grid and electric power generation capabilities to satisfy 
     the expected increase in DOD power requirements;
       (2) Opportunities for increasing energy resilience for 
     Department of Defense equipment and facilities;
       (3) Options to expedite the removal of unexploded ordinance 
     during construction;
       (4) Enhancements to potable water supplies and sewer 
     systems to sustain expected increases in DOD personnel;
       (5) Needed roadway rehabilitation efforts and enhancements 
     to support increased traffic and heavy equipment movements;
       (6) Commercial airport and seaport rehabilitation and 
     capacity expansion projects to improve logistical 
     effectiveness and efficiency;
       (7) Timelines for completion and anticipated phasing for 
     associated projects; and
       (8) Other topics the Secretary deems appropriate to 
     include.

     March 1, 2023. The study shall include: (1) Identification of 
     any buildings and infrastructure in the Blue Grass Chemical 
     Agent-Destruction Pilot Plant that could remain for future 
     Army or Department of Defense use; (2) Cost savings 
     associated with repurposing existing infrastructure for Army 
     or Department of Defense purposes; (3) Opportunities to

                 Subtitle C--Reports and Other Matters

     Sec. 3131--Modification to certain reporting requirements
       The House bill contained provisions (secs. 3112 and 3114) 
     that would amend section 4223 of the Atomic Energy Defense 
     Act (50 U.S.C. 2538e) to expand and modify certain reporting 
     and certification requirements for the W93 nuclear weapon to 
     include other new or modified nuclear weapons. Section 3114 
     would also amend section 3136 of the National Defense 
     Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2016 (42 U.S.C. 2077a) to 
     consolidate certain annual reporting requirements relating to 
     transfers of civil nuclear technology.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The agreement does not include House provision section 
     3112, but the agreement does include House provision section 
     3114 with an amendment that would clarify the Secretary of 
     Energy should not interpret the amended language of 42 U.S.C. 
     2077a(i) as requiring the cited reports to be only submitted 
     once annually, but rather as needed and no less frequently 
     than once annually.
       Regarding section 3112, we note that the Senate report 
     accompanying S. 4543 (S. Rept. 117-130) of the James M. 
     Inhofe National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 
     2023 contains direction to the Administrator for Nuclear 
     Security, in coordination with the Under Secretary of Defense 
     for Acquisition and Sustainment and the Vice Chairman of the 
     Joint Chiefs of Staff, to conduct an unconstrained review of 
     the Phase X Process, including associated Department of 
     Defense processes, such as military requirements development, 
     and to provide a report to the congressional defense 
     committees, not later than May 1, 2023. We believe that the 
     acquisition processes for new and modified nuclear weapons 
     should be holistically updated as soon as practicable to 
     reflect modern requirements, technologies, and reporting and 
     oversight capabilities, a belief reflected in the William M. 
     (Mac) Thornberry National Defense Authorization Act for 
     Fiscal Year 2021's (Public Law 116-283) inclusion of specific 
     reporting and certification requirements for the W93 program. 
     To best inform updates that will undoubtedly follow in future 
     bills, we strongly encourage the above-named officials to 
     exhaustively examine existing processes and provide fulsome, 
     timely recommendations to the committees as directed by the 
     Committee on Armed Services of the Senate's report.
     Sec. 3132--Repeal of obsolete provisions of the Atomic Energy 
         Defense Act and other provisions
       The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 3131) that 
     would amend the Atomic Energy Defense Act (50 U.S.C. 2501 et 
     seq.) by removing outdated reporting and briefing 
     requirements, among other things.
       The House contained no similar provision.
       The agreement includes the Senate provision.


                   LEGISLATIVE PROVISIONS NOT ADOPTED

     Plutonium pit production capacity
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 3111) that would 
     require the Secretary of Energy to produce 30 war reserve 
     plutonium pits at Los Alamos National Laboratory and 50 war 
     reserve plutonium pits at the Savannah River Plutonium 
     Processing Facility (SRPPF). It would also require the 
     Secretary of Defense to annually notify and justify its 
     requirement for plutonium pit production and for the 
     Secretary of Energy to certify that it is able to meet the 
     requirement of the Department of Defense.
       The Senate amendment contained provisions (secs. 1524, 
     1528, and 1529) that would limit the funds authorized for 
     fiscal year 2023 for the Office of the Under Secretary of 
     Defense for Acquisition and Sustainment until the plan 
     required by section 2538a(a) of title 50, United States Code, 
     is submitted. The provision would also require certain 
     reporting from the Chairman of the Nuclear Weapons Council, 
     and would remove outdated reporting and briefing requirements 
     included in section 3120 of the John S. McCain National 
     Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2019 (Public Law 
     115-232) and would extend the annual certification 
     requirement to 2029, among other things.
       The agreement does not include these provisions.
       We note the significant challenges that the Department of 
     Energy and the National Nuclear Security Administration 
     (NNSA) have experienced in attempting to reestablish a 
     plutonium pit production capability over the past two 
     decades. Reestablishing basic nuclear weapons development and 
     production capabilities is of paramount importance to the 
     national security of the United States and its allies. During 
     testimony before the Committee on Armed Services of the 
     Senate on May 4, 2022, the Vice Chairman of the Joint Chiefs 
     of Staff, Admiral Christopher Grady, articulated the military 
     requirement, stating, ``The military requirement is clear, 80 
     pits per year as soon as possible. If not by 2030, then as 
     soon as possible after that.'' Since the closure of the Rocky 
     Flats Plant in 1992, the United States has tried and failed 
     on three prior occasions to restore its ability to produce 
     plutonium pits for the maintenance and modernization of its 
     nuclear weapons stockpile. The current two-site solution for 
     Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL) and the Savannah River 
     Plutonium Pit Processing Facility (SRPPF) represents the 
     fourth, and most advanced, attempt.
       While we recognize the progress NNSA has made in maturing 
     and advancing the current two-site solution, and appreciate 
     NNSA's stated commitment to produce no fewer than 80 war 
     reserve plutonium pits per year as close to 2030 as possible, 
     we remain deeply concerned that these projects are not 
     expected to meet statutory requirements. The schedule risk of 
     the plutonium pit production projects has been widely 
     acknowledged. According to a review of SRPPF by NNSA 
     (Critical Decision (CD)-1 Independent Project Review (IPR): 
     Savannah River Plutonium Processing Facility (SRPPF), March 
     15, 2021), the facility will not be ready to produce 50 war 
     reserve pits until at least 2036, 6 years after it is needed 
     to meet the current statutory deadline to produce 80 war 
     reserve plutonium pits by 2030. In testimony before the 
     Committee on Armed Services of the Senate on March 9, 2022, 
     Admiral Charles Richard, Commander of U.S. Strategic Command, 
     confirmed that ``we now know we will not get 80 pits per year 
     by 2030, as is statutorily required. And even unlimited money 
     at this point will not buy that back.''
       It is imperative that the Nuclear Weapons Council develop 
     plans for supporting ongoing nuclear weapons modernization 
     programs that realistically reflect NNSA's capability to 
     achieve plutonium pit production requirements. Accordingly, 
     we direct the Chairman of the Nuclear Weapons Council and the 
     Administrator for Nuclear Security to jointly conduct a 
     review of plutonium pit production and submit a plan to the 
     congressional defense committees, not later than March 31, 
     2023, that includes high-confidence assessments of projected 
     dates for the achievement of a production capacity of no 
     fewer than 80 war reserve plutonium pits per year. The plan 
     shall include, at a minimum:
       (1) A preferred option and any alternatives for 
     establishing a sustainable capability to produce not fewer 
     than 80 war reserve pits per year, including projected 
     achievable

[[Page H9524]]

     deadlines at 70 percent and 90 percent confidence levels, as 
     determined by the NNSA Director of Cost Estimating and 
     Program Evaluation;
       (2) A preferred option and any alternatives for ensuring 
     the on-time delivery of ongoing nuclear weapons life 
     extension, modification, and development programs that 
     reflect the pit production timelines devised under paragraph 
     1;
       (3) Any other analysis and information the Chairman or 
     Administrator consider appropriate; and
       (4) Any dissenting views by members of the Nuclear Weapons 
     Council to the plan, as appropriate.
       In addition, we direct the Administrator for Nuclear 
     Security:
       (1) Not later than March 1, 2023, to brief the 
     congressional defense committees on NNSA's progress toward 
     achieving the Critical Decision 2 milestone for the LANL and 
     SRPPF plutonium pit production projects and establishing a 
     cost and schedule baseline for each; and
       (2) Not later than June 30, 2023, to brief the 
     congressional defense committees on options for partnering 
     with entities from private industry with expertise in 
     advanced manufacturing and production techniques related to 
     nuclear metallurgy to seek cost efficiencies and mitigate 
     supply chain risks related to the production of plutonium 
     pits, including the production and integration of glove 
     boxes.
     Comptroller General study on National Nuclear Security 
         Administration management and operation contracting 
         process
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 3118) that would 
     require the Comptroller General of the United States to 
     conduct a study to identify and assess the process by which 
     the Administrator for Nuclear Security awards management and 
     operating (M&O) contracts. It would also require the 
     Administrator for Nuclear Security to, upon receipt of the 
     Comptroller's study, provide a briefing to the congressional 
     defense committees on any statutory changes deemed necessary 
     to improve the management and operation contract awarding 
     process.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The agreement does not include this provision.
       We note, however, our concern about a lack of 
     predictability in the contracting schedule for large M&O 
     contracts, including the recently cancelled contract at 
     Pantex and Y-12. We also observe that while the NNSA has made 
     significant strides in improving its contract and project 
     management oversight performance over the past decade, it 
     remains on the Government Accountability Office's ``High Risk 
     List'' since its designation in 2009. Additionally, we are 
     concerned that cancellations or extended delays in the 
     contracting process can pose a risk to the mission in cases 
     where under-performing incumbents are unable to be replaced 
     in a timely manner. Therefore, we direct the Comptroller 
     General of the United States to conduct a study on cancelled 
     and delayed National Nuclear Security Administration M&O 
     contracts to identify and assess the effects of cancelling or 
     delaying the award or solicitation of M&O contracts at 
     facilities in the nuclear enterprise, to include but not 
     limited to Pantex and Y-12. We direct the Comptroller General 
     to provide a briefing on preliminary observations to the 
     Committees on Armed Services of the Senate and the House of 
     Representatives not later than April 1, 2023. We also direct 
     the Administrator for Nuclear Security to, upon receipt of 
     the Comptroller's study, provide a briefing to the 
     congressional defense committees on any statutory changes 
     deemed necessary to improve the management and operation 
     contract awarding process.
     Funding for W80-4 life extension program
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 3119) that would 
     increase by $5.0 million the amount authorized to be 
     appropriated in section 3101 for the National Nuclear 
     Security Administration for the W80-4 Life Extension Program.
       The Senate contained no similar provision.
       The agreement does not include this provision.
     Designation of National Nuclear Security Administration as 
         technical nuclear forensics lead
       The House bill contained a provision (sec. 3122) that would 
     designate the National Nuclear Security Administration as the 
     technical nuclear forensics lead.
       The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.
       The agreement does not include this provision.
       We note that technical nuclear forensics is a critical 
     mission for which the National Nuclear Security 
     Administration (NNSA) plays an essential role. Under existing 
     authorities, NNSA houses most of the U.S. Government's 
     nuclear forensic analytical capabilities, including 
     technology, expertise, and infrastructure that cover every 
     phase of nuclear forensics: collection, analysis, evaluation, 
     and attribution. NNSA remains best situated to adapt and 
     update mission scope to ensure the forensics community is 
     relevant to current threats, including countering nuclear 
     terrorism and deterring near-peer adversaries. While nuclear 
     forensics was once thought of as a primarily domestic 
     responsibility, Russian nuclear threats related to its 
     conflict in Ukraine, including the potential for a false-flag 
     radiological or nuclear attack, highlight the importance of 
     timely, credible attribution overseas in order to deter and, 
     if necessary, respond to nuclear employment by near-peer 
     adversaries.
       Section 3231 of the John S. McCain National Defense 
     Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2019 (Public Law 115-232) 
     required the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and 
     Medicine to conduct a study that examined U.S. Government 
     nuclear forensics capabilities. The resulting report entitled 
     ``Restoring and Improving Nuclear Forensics to Support 
     Attribution and Deterrence'' was published in May 2021 and 
     found that national technical nuclear forensics requires 
     improved alignment across the U.S. Government. In particular, 
     the report found that the Department of Homeland Security 
     (DHS) had ``effectively abdicated'' its responsibilities for 
     technical nuclear forensics by ``prioritizing other 
     missions'' (p. 8), all the while other organizations, most 
     notably NNSA, treat their nuclear forensics responsibilities 
     as a matter of utmost importance (p. 14). It is no surprise, 
     then, that the Office of Management and Budget submitted, in 
     June 2021, an interagency coordinated and administration 
     approved legislative proposal seeking to fully realign 
     leadership for nuclear forensics from DHS to NNSA.
       The technical nuclear forensics mission must remain a 
     priority. We urge the U.S. Government to heed the 
     recommendations of the National Academies and properly align 
     policy, roles and responsibilities, and funding to support 
     effective technical nuclear forensics.

     United States Code, in developing recommendations related to 
     mitigating supply chain security risks.

       The House bill contained no similar provision.
       The agreement does not include this provision.
       We direct the Administrator for Nuclear Security, in 
     coordination with the Secretary of Defense, to submit a plan 
     to the congressional defense committees, not later than July 
     1, 2023, for restoring the unobligated, unencumbered, 
     domestic uranium production, conversion, and enrichment 
     capabilities of the United States by not later than 2035. 
     Such plan should include, at a minimum:
       (1) A proposal or proposals for restoring unobligated 
     uranium production, conversion and enrichment capabilities, 
     including production of high-enriched uranium to refurbish 
     the nuclear weapons stockpile of the United States over a 
     period of not more than 30 years; satisfy the annual 
     requirements of the United States for naval reactor fuel, 
     including projections for satisfying fuel requirements for 
     all submarines developed using reactor designs and technology 
     of the United States; and satisfy the annual requirements of 
     the United States for defense nuclear power reactors;
       (2) A proposal or proposals for improving the production 
     capacity of unobligated low-enriched uranium needed to 
     satisfy annual tritium production requirements for the 
     nuclear weapons stockpile of the United States and associated 
     research and development objectives; and
       (3) Any other analysis and information as the Administrator 
     or the Secretary consider appropriate.
       We recognize that the contours of the plan for unobligated, 
     unencumbered domestic uranium production outlined above may 
     conflict with one or more of the objectives outlined by the 
     Secretary of Energy's biennial plan for meeting national 
     security requirements for unencumbered uranium through 2070, 
     pursuant to section 2538c of title 50, United States Code. 
     This direction does not alter the existing statutory 
     requirement, but rather seeks to provide the congressional 
     defense committees with alternatives that will improve their 
     understanding of the implications and costs of accelerating 
     efforts to reestablish domestic unobligated, unencumbered 
     uranium production, conversion, and enrichment capabilities 
     for the United States in the 2030s, and thus inform the range 
     of future policy and resourcing options under consideration 
     for responding to threats posed by multiple near-peer 
     adversaries.
