   Mr. Stevens, from the Committee on Appropriations, submitted the 
                               following

                              R E P O R T

    The Committee on Appropriations submits the following 
report revising the 302(b) allocations to subcommittees set 
forth in Senate Report 105-191 (May 14, 1998) and revised in 
Senate Report 105-199 (June 2, 1998), Senate Report 105-211 
(June 11, 1998), Senate Report 105-221 (June 24, 1998), Senate 
Report 105-247 (July 13, 1998), Senate Report 105-252 (July 20, 
1998), and Senate Report 105-272 (July 28, 1998).
    Section 302(e) of the Congressional Budget Act of 1974, as 
amended, provides that at any time after a committee reports 
its allocations such committee may report to its House an 
alteration of such allocations. This report is submitted 
pursuant to this section.
    The allocation is consistent with Senate Resolution 209, as 
modified by order of the Senate on July 10, 1998 (Congressional 
Record, page S8016). The allocation reflects enactment of the 
Transportation Equity Act for the 21st Century [TEA21] (Public 
Law 105-178). The act established a new highway category and a 
new mass transit category and set lower nondefense 
discretionary levels in fiscal year 1999. The Committee notes 
that under section 8103 of TEA21, obligation limitations for 
the mass transit category were defined as the sum of budget 
authority and obligation limitations.
    On July 20, 1998, the Committee on the Budget filed a 
revised 302(a) allocation for the Committee reflecting an 
increase of $618,000,000 in budget authority and $609,000,000 
in outlays. These amounts were provided under the provisions of 
section 314(b) of the Congressional Budget Act of 1974, as 
amended, which mandate an increase to the Committee's 302(a) 
allocation when certain conditions relating to funding of 
international affairs activities and to funding of an earned 
income tax credit [EITC] compliance initiative are met.
    On July 28, 1998, the Committee on the Budget filed a 
revised 302(a) allocation for the Committee reflecting an 
increase of $25,000,000 in outlays. These amounts were provided 
under the provisions of section 314(b) of the Congressional 
Budget Act of 1974, as amended, which mandate an increase to 
the Committee's 302(a) allocation when certain conditions 
relating to funding of arrearages for certain international 
activities are met.
