                            Federal Payments


              Federal Payment for Resident Tuition Support

    The Committee recommends a Federal payment of $25,600,000 
for the resident tuition support program, $8,700,000 above the 
fiscal year 2004 appropriation and $8,600,000 above the 
President's request. These funds are to be used on behalf of 
eligible District of Columbia residents to pay an amount based 
upon the difference between in-State and out-of-State tuition 
at eligible public and private institutions of higher 
education.
    The program was created by the District of Columbia College 
Access Act of 1999 and has given thousands of District college-
bound students the opportunity to expand their higher education 
choices. The program receives its funding through a Federal 
appropriation which is deposited into a dedicated account under 
the control of the District of Columbia Chief Financial 
Officer. Over 6,000 students have received grant awards since 
the inception of this program. And in June of this year the 
first group of students graduated from college. The program 
will celebrate its sixth year of operation in fiscal year 2005. 
The Committee looks forward to a report from the Resident 
Tuition Support Office on the status of this popular program.

       Federal Payment for Emergency Planning and Security Costs

    The Committee recommends a Federal payment of $15,000,000 
for emergency planning and security costs, $4,065,000 above the 
fiscal year 2004 appropriation and the same as the President's 
request. These funds are for emergency planning and security 
costs related to the presence of the Federal government in the 
District of Columbia and surrounding jurisdictions.

           Federal Payment to the District of Columbia Courts

    The Committee recommends a Federal payment of $202,110,000 
for operation of District of Columbia Courts, including the 
Family Court, $35,335,000 above the fiscal year 2004 
appropriation and $25,959,000 below the President's request. 
This amount includes $8,952,000 for the Court of Appeals, 
$84,948,000 for the Superior Court, $40,699,000 for the Court 
System, and $67,511,000 for capital improvements to courthouse 
facilities.
    Given current budgetary constraints, coupled with competing 
demands for resources, the Committee was unable to provide the 
full funding requested by the District of Columbia Courts for 
the restoration of the Old Courthouse facility. The Committee 
is supportive of this important project as well as the overall 
effort to restore the Judiciary Square area of the city. The 
Committee is committed to providing the remainder of the funds 
necessary for completion of the Old Courthouse project as part 
of the fiscal year 2006 appropriations process. In the interim, 
the Committee has provided bill language allowing the District 
of Columbia Courts to enter into a construction contract that 
includes the full scope of the project. Should unanticipated 
needs arise, the Committee has provided bill language allowing 
for the reallocation of not more than four percent of the total 
funds provided to the Courts for facilities. The Committee 
believes that this will provide the Courts with sufficient 
funding flexibility to move forward with the Old Courthouse 
project this year.

          Defender Services in the District of Columbia Courts

    The Committee recommends $41,500,000 for Defender Services 
in District of Columbia Courts, $9,689,000 above the fiscal 
year 2004 appropriation and the same as the President's 
request. These funds provide payment for counsel appointed in 
proceedings in the Family Court of the Superior Court and under 
the District of Columbia Guardianship, Protective Proceedings, 
and Durable Power of Attorney Act of 1986.

 Federal Payment to the Court Services and Offender Supervision Agency 
                      for the District of Columbia

    The Committee recommends a Federal payment of $183,490,000 
for the Court Services and Offender Supervision Agency (CSOSA) 
and the Public Defender Service for the District of Columbia, 
$16,049,000 above the fiscal year 2004 appropriation and 
$4,000,000 below the President's request. This amount includes 
$115,343,000 for Community Supervision and Sex Offender 
Registration, $39,314,000 for the Pretrial Services Agency, and 
$28,833,000 as a transfer to the Public Defender Service.
    The Committee understands that with the additional funding 
provided in fiscal year 2005 the renovation of the new re-entry 
and sanctions center at Karrick Hall will be completed. This 
re-entry and sanctions center will be able to treat 
approximately 1,200 offenders annually.
    The Committee directs that within the funds provided to 
CSOSA, $200,000 is to be used to continue the GPS electronic 
monitoring program, and $1,000,000 is to be used to continue 
efforts to reduce supervision caseload ratios.

 Federal Payment to the District of Columbia Water and Sewer Authority

    The Committee recommends a Federal payment of $10,000,000 
to the District of Columbia Water and Sewer Authority (WASA), 
$19,823,000 below the fiscal year 2004 appropriation and the 
same as President's request. These funds are to continue 
implementation of the Combined Sewer Overflow Long-Term Plan 
and are to be matched 100 percent by WASA.
    The District's combined sewer system was designed and 
constructed by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers in the late 
1800's and serves about a third of the District. The capacity 
of the system is exceeded during storms with the excess flow 
being discharged to the Anacostia and Potomac Rivers, Rock 
Creek, and tributary waters. WASA has developed a long-term 
plan to control these overflows and improve the water quality 
of the rivers. The plan is estimated to cost $1.3 billion and 
take between 15 to 40 years to complete depending on how much 
Federal assistance is obtained. While the Committee is 
supportive of the project and is providing funding for it in 
the bill, the Committee does not have the resources to provide 
the level of funding WASA is seeking from the Federal 
government. Therefore, the Committee strongly encourages WASA 
to pursue other sources of public and private funding.

        Federal Payment for the Anacostia Waterfront Initiative

    The Committee recommends a Federal payment of $3,000,000 
for the Anacostia Waterfront Initiative, $1,971,000 below the 
fiscal year 2004 appropriation and the same as the President's 
request. These funds are for the design and construction of a 
continuous pedestrian and bicycle trail system from the Potomac 
River to the District's border with Maryland.
    The Anacostia Waterfront Initiative is a multi-year, multi-
project initiative to revitalize the Anacostia River and its 
waterfront communities. The design and construction of a 
continuous pedestrian and bicycle trail system from the Potomac 
River to the District's border with Maryland is one such 
project. The project will take approximately four years to 
complete, one year for design and three years for construction. 
The Committee provides $3,000,000 to begin construction in 
fiscal year 2005. The Committee will reassess the funding 
requirements for this project in the future.

      Federal Payment to the Criminal Justice Coordinating Council

    The Committee recommends a Federal payment of $1,300,000 to 
the Criminal Justice Coordinating Council, $8,000 above the 
fiscal year 2004 appropriation and the same as the President's 
request. These funds are to support initiatives related to the 
coordination of Federal and local criminal justice resources in 
the District of Columbia.
    The Committee recognizes the Criminal Justice Coordinating 
Council (CJCC) as an important agency within the law 
enforcement and criminal justice community in the District of 
Columbia. Federal and local agencies are expected to 
demonstrate accountability on the initiatives undertaken each 
year to improve public safety in the city. To this end, we 
request the CJCC collect and analyze data that measures 
progress made on the individual CJCC initiatives and to include 
these measures in the annual report. CJCC agencies will be 
expected to share information and data with CJCC by utilizing 
the JUSTIS integrated information system for tracking and 
monitoring individuals throughout the criminal justice system 
and providing the required information to the Statistical 
Analysis Center.

  Federal Payment for Capital Development in the District of Columbia

    The Committee recommends a Federal payment of $7,000,000 to 
the District of Columbia for capital development, $1,102,000 
below the fiscal year 2004 appropriation and $7,000,000 above 
the President's request. These funds are for construction of 
the new multi-agency Unified Communications Center.

              Federal Payment for Public School Libraries

    The Committee recommends a Federal payment of $6,000,000 to 
the District of Columbia Public School Libraries for a new 
library/learning center initiative. These funds are subject to 
a 100 percent match by the District of Columbia Public Schools.
    The Committee is concerned with the very poor physical 
condition of some of the District's public school libraries, 
and with the lack of library resources available to students 
and teachers. Therefore, the Committee has provided an 
additional $6,000,000, subject to a one-to-one match from the 
District of Columbia Public Schools (DCPS) for a new library/
learning center enhancement initiative. The intent of this new 
program is to enhance elementary school libraries as fully 
functioning learning centers and, in doing so, help provide the 
critical educational resources that our children deserve in 
order to receive a quality education.
    The Committee envisions this new initiative as a 
collaborative program designed to bring together local, 
Federal, and possibly private resources. In this light, the 
Committee urges the DCPS to continue to work with the Library 
of Congress (Library), and to expand this relationship to 
include not only the Library's surplus book program, but also 
their excess equipment program. This evolving relationship 
between DCPS and the Library will allow DCPS to secure not only 
books and periodicals, but also information technology 
resources for their elementary school learning centers. The 
Library of Congress has also discussed with the Committee the 
possibility of developing an information technology-training 
program. While the Library does not have an accredited training 
program, they do provide teachers with some hands-on training. 
DCPS should consider whether such training complements DCPS's 
current teacher training programs. In addition, DCPS should 
coordinate it's current E-Rate program within the context of 
this new initiative as a way of obtaining the maximum benefits 
possible in the restoration and enhancement of its library/
learning centers.
    The Committee directs that the Federal portion of these 
funds be used for the acquisition of library resources 
including, but not limited to, books, periodicals, computers, 
and software. The matching component of this program should be 
used to renovate library space to include, but not limited to, 
such things as wiring, furniture, and any physical enhancement 
projects that are necessary to transform these libraries into 
fully functioning learning centers. However, these funds should 
not be used for major construction projects.
    As soon as practicable after passage of this Act, DCPS 
should develop a prioritized assessment of their elementary 
school library needs. Within the resources provided for this 
new initiative, DCPS should allocate funding to those 
elementary schools with the greatest need for library/learning 
centers. The Committee directs that DCPS provide a biannual 
report to the Committees on Appropriations of the House of 
Representatives and Senate detailing the status of the 
implementation of this library/learning-center initiative. 
These reports should provide a comprehensive review of Federal 
funding, matching funding, as well as those resources provided 
through other agencies or private organizations.

            Federal Payment for the Family Literacy Program

    The Committee recommends a Federal payment of $1,000,000 
for the Family Literacy program, $988,000 below the fiscal year 
2004 appropriation and $1,000,000 above the President's 
request. These funds are to be used to address the needs of 
literacy-challenged parents and are available contingent upon 
the District providing a 100 percent match.

             Federal Payment for Transportation Assistance

    The Committee recommends zero funds as a Federal payment to 
the District of Columbia Department of Transportation, 
$3,479,000 below the fiscal year 2004 appropriation and the 
same as President's request.

    Federal Payment for Foster Care Improvements in the District of 
                                Columbia

    The Committee recommends a Federal payment of $5,000,000 
for Foster Care Improvements in the District of Columbia, 
$8,917,000 below the fiscal year 2004 appropriation and 
$5,000,000 above the President's request. These funds are 
allocated as follows $3,000,000 for the Child and Family 
Services Agency, of which $2,000,000 is for the continuation of 
the early intervention program to provide intensive and 
immediate services for foster children; $1,000,000 is for 
emergency support to fund the purchase of items necessary to 
allow children to remain in the care of approved family 
members; $1,500,000 is for the Department of Mental Health to 
provide court-ordered and agency-required help for children 
under the supervision of the Child and Family Services Agency; 
and $500,000 is for Washington Metropolitan Council of 
Governments for respite care and recruitment of foster parents.

    Federal Payment to the Office of Chief Financial Officer of the 
                          District of Columbia

    The Committee recommends a Federal payment of $19,000,000 
for the Chief Financial Officer of the District of Columbia, 
$13,159,000 below the fiscal year 2004 appropriation and 
$19,000,000 above the President's request. These funds are for 
education, public safety, health, economic development, and 
infrastructure initiatives in the District of Columbia.

              Federal Payment for Emergency Cross Training

    The Committee recommends zero funds as a Federal payment to 
the District of Columbia for emergency cross training, $497,000 
below the fiscal year 2004 appropriation and the same as 
President's request.

                 Federal Payment for School Improvement

    The Committee Recommends a Federal payment for school 
improvement of $40,000,000, the same as the fiscal year 2004 
appropriation and the President's request. These funds are 
allocated as follows: $13,000,000 to improve public school 
education in the District of Columbia, $13,000,000 for 
expanding quality charter schools in the District of Columbia, 
and $14,000,000 to the Secretary of Education for opportunity 
scholarships for low-income children in the District of 
Columbia, of which $1,000,000 is for administrative expenses.
    The Committee has fully funded the school improvement 
program, which is a three tiered approach designed to improve 
the quality of education in the District of Columbia while 
promoting school choice.
    The Committee is committed to improving the District of 
Columbia School System and has provided $13,000,000 to help 
improve public school education. The expectation on the part of 
the Committee is that the superintendent of DCPS will allocate 
these funds to programs and projects designed to have the 
greatest impact on improving educational achievement by 
strengthening leadership and instructional excellence through 
principal and teacher recruitment and retention, and by 
increasing student achievement through supplemental services 
and public school choice.
    The Committee has provided $13,000,000 for charter schools 
to be allocated as follows: $5,000,000 for the City Build 
initiative, $3,000,000 for direct loans and credit enhancement, 
$3,000,000 for an incubator school, and $2,000,000 to 
Educational Advancement Alliance for a charter school college 
preparatory program.
    The Committee continues the City Build initiative to 
further the District's ability to provide assistance to charter 
schools in securing permanent locations by combining financial 
assistance with the incentives to locate in neighborhoods 
identified for retention efforts. This program, launched in 
fiscal year 2004, reflects the vision for schools as 
neighborhood centers that would attract and retain residents. 
The long-term vision for this program is that, once 
established, the existence of additional financial assistance 
to charter schools to locate in strategic neighborhoods will be 
a stand-alone incentive for new charter schools to look to 
these neighborhoods first in the pursuit of a location.
    The Committee has provided $4,000,000 for an incubator 
school. One of the biggest challenges to new charter schools is 
the acquisition of an appropriate facility. The concept, known 
as an ``incubator school'' will provide a facility for new 
schools to temporarily locate while establishing themselves in 
the community. New charter schools are often the most in need 
of a space that does not require a significant investment in 
renovation or construction, and would provide a ``safe harbor'' 
space to allow the school to gain ground in both financial and 
student investment.
    The Committee has provided $4,000,000 to continue support 
for the successful credit enhancement/direct loan program to 
assist charter schools in acquiring funding for facilities.
    The Committee has provided $14,000,000 for opportunity 
scholarships for low-income students in District of Columbia. 
The Washington Scholarship Fund operates this program, first 
established in fiscal year 2004. To date, more than 2,600 
children have applied for these new K-12 scholarships that can 
be used for tuition, transportation, and fees at participating 
District of Columbia schools. It is expected that the 50 
participating schools will offer a total of 1,264 slots for 
children in the coming school year. Based on these enrollment 
figures, this new education approach is already turning into a 
popular and successful program.

                             Federal Grants

    The District of Columbia participates as a State, county, 
and city in the various Federal grant programs. At the time the 
fiscal year 2005 budget was submitted the District estimated 
that it would receive a total of $1,859,763,000 in Federal 
grants during the coming fiscal year.
    The following table shows the amount of Federal grants the 
District expects to receive and the office or agency that 
expects to receive them:

    The Committee is recommending a balanced budget in 
accordance with the District government request. It is 
estimated that sufficient resources will be available from 
current revenue authority to finance operating expenses. A 
financial plan for each of the seven categories for operating 
expenses--(1) General Fund, (2) University of the District of 
Columbia, (3) Water and Sewer Authority, (4) Lottery and 
Charitable Games Fund, (5) Cable Television and 
Telecommunications, (6) Sports and Entertainment Commission, 
and (7) Washington Convention Center follows:

\1\ FY2003 has been prepared on the GAAP basis and therefore reflects depreciation expense for equipment
  purchased and capital improvements made in 2003 and earlier years. The depreciation is made over the estimated
  useful lives of the equipment purchased or capital improvement installed.
\2\ FY2004 and FY2005 have been prepared on a budget basis. Under this basis, depreciation is not calculated but
  equipment purchases are shown as an operating budget expenditure. We estimate that, under a GAAP basis, in
  2004 and 2005, the University will incur depreciation expense of approximately $5 million in each year.

    The Committee recommends $3,792,000 from other funds for 
the Stormwater Permit Compliance Enterprise Fund for fiscal

Enterprise Fund is to ensure compliance with EPA requirements 
under the District's storm water permit issued in April 2000.

              LOTTERY AND CHARITABLE GAMES ENTERPRISE FUND

    The Committee recommends $247,000,000 and 92 full-time 
equivalent positions from other funds for the Lottery and 
Charitable Games Enterprise Fund for fiscal year 2005. The 
Lottery and Charitable Games Enterprise Fund generates revenues 
for the general fund and regulates charitable games in order to 
support programs and services for the residents of the District 
of Columbia.

                  SPORTS AND ENTERTAINMENT COMMISSION

    The Committee recommends $7,322,000 from other funds for 
the Sports and Entertainment Commission for fiscal year 2005. 
The Sports and Entertainment Commission improves the quality of 
life and enhances economic development in the District by 
operating RFK Stadium, managing the non-military functions of 
the District of Columbia National Guard Armory, promoting the 
District as a venue for sports and entertainment activities, 
and supporting youth recreational activities.

                 DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA RETIREMENT BOARD

    The Committee recommends $15,277,000 and 14 full-time 
equivalent positions from other funds for the District of 
Columbia Retirement Board for fiscal year 2005. The mission of 
the District of Columbia Retirement Board is to invest, 
control, and manage the assets of the District of Columbia 
Teachers' Retirement System and the District of Columbia Police 
Officers' and Fire Fighters' Retirement System.

              WASHINGTON CONVENTION CENTER ENTERPRISE FUND

    The Committee recommends $77,176,000 from other funds for 
the Washington Convention Center Enterprise Fund for fiscal 
year 2005. The mission of the Washington Convention Center 
Enterprise Fund is to expand the revenue base of the District 
by promoting and hosting large national and international 
conventions and trade shows that bring hundreds of thousands of 
out-of-town delegates, exhibitors, and businesses to 
Washington, D.C.; and to provide expanded employment and 
business opportunities for residents of the District.

              NATIONAL CAPITAL REVITALIZATION CORPORATION

    The Committee recommends $7,849,000 from other funds for 
the National Capital Revitalization Corporation for fiscal year 
2005. The mission of the National Capital Revitalization 
Corporation is to spur economic development throughout the 
District of Columbia, primarily in neighborhoods of need.
    The Committee supports the National Capital Revitalization 
Corporation's (NCRC) commitment to working with the existing 
waterfront businesses to develop an effective strategy for the 
implementation of the revitalization plan. The Committee also 
supports the creation of a Waterfront Task Force with 
representatives from the business and residential communities 
affected by the southwest waterfront development.
    The Capital Yacht Club is recognized as an important and 
historic, non-profit institution. The Committee urges NCRC to 
continue to maintain an open conversation with the Yacht Club 
to ensure that future planning contains proper facilities for 
the Yacht Club's administrative operations that are in close 
proximity to their current facilities.
    The Committee is concerned about the potential to 
compromise security at Department of Defense (DOD) facilities 
in the District of Columbia as a result of the efforts to 
revitalize the waterfront area of the city. The Committee 
supports this revitalization effort, but does not understand 
the rational for excluding DOD representation on the Anacostia 
Waterfront Corporation (AWC). The Committee believes that 
embracing DOD as a full partner with a seat and a vote on the 
Board of the AWC creates synergies that will greatly benefit 
both the AWC and DOD. The Committee would expect DOD to be 
added as a full voting member on the Board of the AWC.

    The Committee recommends $85,102,000 and 952 full-time
