            (1) Despite the signing of the Darfur Peace

        Sudan, continues to escalate and threatens to spread to 
        other areas of Sudan and throughout the region.
            (2) The African Union Mission in Sudan (AMIS) 
        currently serves as the primary security force in 
        Darfur, but it is hoped that a United Nations 
        peacekeeping force can be deployed to the region.
            (3) The continued presence of a peacekeeping force 
        in Darfur, Sudan, is critical to curbing the spread of 
        violence in the region.
    (b) Of the funds appropriated in this title under the 
heading ``Operation and Maintenance, Defense-Wide'', 
$20,000,000 shall be made available only for transfer to the 
Department of State ``Peacekeeping Operations'' account to 
support peacekeeping activities in Sudan: Provided, That these 
funds shall be transferred by the Secretary of Defense if he 
determines such amounts are required to assist in peacekeeping 
activities.
    (c) The transfer authority in this section is in addition 
to any other transfer authority available to the Department of 
Defense.
    (d) The Secretary shall, not fewer than five days prior to 
making transfers under this authority, notify the congressional 
defense committees in writing of the details of any such 
transfer.
    Sec. 9015. None of the funds made available in this Act may 
be used in contravention of the following laws enacted or

        105-277; 112 Stat. 2681-822; 8 U.S.C. 1231 note) and 
        any regulations prescribed thereto, including

        Regulations, and part 95 of title 22, Code of Federal 
        Regulations.
            (3) Sections 1002 and 1003 of the Department of

Contractors in Cases of Contract Non-Performance.-- None of the 
funds appropriated or otherwise made available by this Act may 
be obligated or expended to provide award fees to any defense 
contractor for performance that does not meet the requirements 
of the contract.
    Sec. 9017. No funds appropriated or otherwise made 
available by this Act may be used by the Government of the 
United States to enter into an agreement with the Government of 
Iraq that would subject members of the Armed Forces of the 
United States to the jurisdiction of Iraq criminal courts or 
punishment under Iraq law.
    Sec. 9018. Notwithstanding any other provision of law, the 
Secretary of the Army may reimburse a member for expenses 
incurred by the member or family member when such expenses are 
otherwise not reimbursable under law: Provided, That such 
expenses must have been incurred in good faith as a direct 
consequence of reasonable preparation for, or execution of, 
military orders: Provided further, That reimbursement under 
this section shall be allowed only in situations wherein other 
authorities are insufficient to remedy a hardship determined by 
the Secretary, and only when the Secretary determines that 
reimbursement of the expense is in the best interest of the 
member and the United States.

                      JOINT EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

                               DIVISION A

             DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE APPROPRIATIONS ACT, 2007

      The managers on the part of the House and the Senate at 
the conference on the disagreeing votes of the two Houses on 
the amendment of the Senate to the bill (H.R. 5631), making 
appropriations for the Department of Defense for the fiscal 
year ending September 30, 2007, and for other purposes, submit 
the following joint statement to the House and the Senate in 
explanation of the effect of the action agreed upon by the 
managers and recommended in the accompanying conference report.
      The conference agreement on the Department of Defense 
Appropriations Act, 2007, incorporates some of the provisions 
of the House and Senate versions of the bill. Additional items 
in the Senate bill are expected to be addressed in the Military 
Construction, Military Quality of Life and Veterans Affairs 
Appropriations Act, 2007. The language and allocations set 
forth in House Report 109-504 and Senate Report 109-292 (as 
they apply to the programs, projects, and activities contained 
in the accompanying conference report) should be complied with 
unless specifically addressed in the accompanying conference 
report and statement of managers to the contrary.
      The Senate amendment deleted the entire House bill after 
the enacting clause and inserted new language. The conference 
agreement includes revised language.

              Definition of Program, Project, and Activity

      The conferees agree that for the purposes of the Balanced 
Budget and Emergency Deficit Control Act of 1985 (Public Law 
99-177) as amended by the Balanced Budget and Emergency Deficit 
Control Reaffirmation Act of 1987 (Public Law 100-119) and by 
the Budget Enforcement Act of 1990 (Public Law 101-508), the 
term program, project, and activity for appropriations 
contained in this Act shall be defined as the most specific 
level of budget items identified in the Department of Defense 
Appropriations Act, 2007, the accompanying House and Senate 
Committee reports, the conference report and accompanying joint 
explanatory statement of the managers of the Committee of 
Conference, the related classified annexes and reports, and the 
P-1 and R-1 budget justification documents as subsequently 
modified by Congressional action. The following exception to 
the above definition shall apply: for the Military Personnel 
and the Operation and Maintenance accounts, the term ``program, 
project, and activity'' is defined as the appropriations 
accounts contained in the Department of Defense Appropriations 
Act.
      At the time the President submits his budget for fiscal 
year 2008, the conferees direct the Department of Defense to 
transmit to the congressional defense committees budget 
justification documents to be known as the ``M-1'' and ``O-1'' 
which shall identify, at the budget activity, activity group, 
and subactivity group level, the amounts requested by the 
President to be appropriated to the Department of Defense for 
military personnel and operation and maintenance in any budget 
request, or amended budget request, for fiscal year 2008.

                            Classified Annex

      Adjustments to classified programs are addressed in the 
classified annex accompanying this report.


              Reserve Component's Budget Structure Change

      The conferees agree to extend last year's test of a 
consolidated budget structure for the Reserve Component's 
military personnel accounts through fiscal year 2007. In order 
to provide visibility of the movement of funds within the 
accounts, the conferees direct each of the Reserve Components 
to provide a quarterly report to the congressional defense 
committees and the Government Accountability Office (GAO) 
showing transfers between line items within the military 
personnel appropriations. The report format will provide 
separate explanations for all transfers in and out of each 
appropriation line item that equal, exceed, or cumulate to 
$5,000,000. Reports will provide a beginning and ending total 
by line item and will be due 30 days following the end of each 
quarter. Reserve Component fiscal year 2008 budget requests for 
military personnel will be submitted using the two budget 
activity structure.

                  Army National Guard Combat Brigades

      The conferees are concerned about the Department of 
Defense's proposal to reduce 7 Army combat brigades from the 
level assumed under previous plans. Most of the change would 
occur in the Army National Guard's force structure plans; the 
Guard would field 28 combat brigades instead of 34 proposed 
previously. The conferees' review of this proposal indicates 
that the National Guard will have difficulty meeting its force 
generation and state security requirements with only 28 combat 
brigades. As the Department of the Army continues its 
examination of combat brigade requirements, the conferees 
strongly urge that this examination be conducted with the full 
participation and cooperation of both active and Guard 
officials at all levels. Moreover, the conferees will closely 
follow this issue over the coming months and will seek to 
ensure that sufficient funding is provided to field the number 
of Guard combat brigades necessary to meet its force generation 
and state security requirements. As such, the conferees provide 
additional funding (described in other sections of this report) 
to fully fund the Army National Guard authorized end strength 
level of 350,000 and to purchase additional equipment.


                          Travel Expenditures

      The conferees wish to ensure that the Department of 
Defense is making every effort to come into compliance with the 
Improper Payments Act regarding travel expenditures. The 
conferees note that the Department has invested significant 
resources in the Defense Travel System (DTS), which should 
enable the Department to reduce improper travel payments and 
accurately report improper payments when they occur. The 
conferees are concerned that the Department currently reports 
improper payments on only a portion of its unclassified budget. 
The conferees therefore direct the Government Accountability 
Office to assess the reasons why the Department is not fully in 
compliance with the Improper Payments Act and make 
recommendations for measures the Department can put in place to 
comply with the Act. The report should be provided to the 
congressional defense committees no later than May 31, 2007.

            Special Operations Combat Medic Training Program

      The conferees are concerned by a decision made by the 
United States Army Special Operations Command (USASOC) to 
abruptly terminate its partnership with one of three facilities 
participating in the Special Operations Combat Medic (SOCM) 
training program, notwithstanding recent commendation for the 
facility's continued support of the program. The conferees 
believe this decision may be unfounded and hastily made without 
substantive justification. Furthermore, it eliminates from the 
SOCM program the unique, individualized, hands-on training 
offered by this facility. The conferees believe this program 
has been critical to force protection and is vital to war-
fighters currently engaged in hostile environments abroad. The 
conferees encourage USASOC to continue the Special Operations 
Medic Training Program at all three facilities, and to do so in 
a manner consistent with the previous two fiscal years, so as 
to continue providing our troops with capable and skilled 
Special Operations medics.

                        Defense Security Service

      The conference agreement provides $8,000,000 above the 
budget request for the Defense Security Service (DSS) to assist 
in the timely processing of industry Personnel Security 
Investigations. The conferees expect the Department of Defense 
to resolve the budgetary problems facing the DSS and to report 
to the congressional defense committees on plans to more 
accurately build future DSS budget submissions not later than 
90 days after enactment of this Act.

       Depleted Uranium Sensing and Treatment for Removal Program

      The conferees understand depleted uranium is critical for 
use in applications such as armor penetrators and armor plates, 
providing a substantial performance advantage over other 
materials. Depleted uranium, however, is a low-level 
radioactive heavy metal and concerns exist about potential 
health effects from its use in military operations. The 
conferees appreciate Department of Defense efforts in 
developing methods for depleted uranium contamination removal 
and are aware of the Depleted Uranium Sensing and Treatment for 
Removal program. The conferees direct the Department to provide 
an assessment of the Depleted Uranium Sensing and Treatment for 
Removal program to the congressional defense committees no 
later than December 31, 2006, which addresses current research 
and development efforts, progress to date and merits of the 
program.

                               ThanksUSA

      The ThanksUSA Program provides post-secondary 
scholarships for the spouses and dependents of active duty 
military personnel. The conferees believe this is a commendable 
model of public-private partnerships and fully support the 
educational and retention objectives of this program. The 
conferees encourage ThanksUSA to continue to develop sources of 
private and matching funding for this worthwhile cause to 
ensure future scholarship availability for these deserving 
military family members.

                             Oil Refineries

      When making public contract announcements regarding the 
refining of fuel by U.S. companies, the U.S. Department of 
Defense should not provide the name of the country for which 
the fuel is being refined or the location of the facility that 
will refine the fuel.

              Personnel Identification and Authentication

      The conferees recognize the criticality of controlling 
access to our military installations. It is imperative for 
force protection and the security of our facilities that only 
those individuals with legitimate need and proper 
identification should gain access to installations. The 
conferees are aware of various initiatives across the 
Department of Defense to employ systems that provide for 
authentication of identification credentials at installation 
gates. Such systems have been developed by both the private 
sector and DoD components. In order to ensure that the 
Department takes a coherent approach that delivers best value 
solutions for this important force protection role, the 
conferees expect DoD and the services to develop a 
comprehensive set of requirements to use as the basis for full 
and open competition.


                          Air Defense Mission

      The conferees support having the 144th Fighter Wing of 
the Air National Guard perform the air defense mission over the 
southwestern sector of the United States and the Air Defense 
Main Operating Base located in Fresno, California. The 
conferees understand that this is the only dedicated air 
defense fighter wing in the southwest and that the Air Force 
has no replacement aircraft scheduled for the 144th Fighter 
Wing after fiscal year 2012. The conferees direct the Secretary 
of the Air Force to submit a report to the congressional 
defense committees outlining a plan for an air defense mission 
that continues this capability for the 144th Fighter Wing using 
the Air Defense Main Operating Base in Fresno beyond fiscal 
year 2012.

          UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE ARMED FORCES

      The conference agreement provides $11,721,000 for the 
United States Court of Appeals for the Armed Forces.

             OVERSEAS HUMANITARIAN, DISASTER, AND CIVIC AID

      The conference agreement provides $63,204,000 for 
Overseas Humanitarian, Disaster, and Civic Aid.

              FORMER SOVIET UNION THREAT REDUCTION ACCOUNT

      The conference agreement provides $372,128,000 for the 
Former Soviet Union Threat Reduction Account.


                         Special Interest Items

      Items for which additional funds have been provided as 
shown in the project level tables or in paragraphs using the 
phrase ``only for'' or ``only to'' in this report are 
congressional interest items for the purpose of the Base for 
Reprogramming (DD 1414). Each of these items must be carried on 
the DD Form 1414 at the stated amount, specifically addressed 
in the conference report. These items remain special interest 
items whether or not they are repeated in a subsequent 
conference report.

            Reprogramming Guidance for Acquisition Accounts

      The conferees direct the Department of Defense to 
continue to follow the reprogramming guidance specified in the 
report accompanying the House version of the fiscal year 2006 
Department of Defense Appropriations bill (H.R. 109-119). 
Specifically, the dollar threshold for reprogramming funds will 
remain at $20,000,000 for procurement, and $10,000,000 for 
research, development, test and evaluation. The Department 
shall continue to follow the limitation that prior approval 
reprogrammings are set at either the specified dollar threshold 
or 20% of the procurement or research, development, test and 
evaluation line, whichever is less. These thresholds are 
cumulative. Therefore, if the combined value of transfers into 
or out of a procurement (P-1) or research, development, test 
and evaluation (R-1) line exceeds the identified threshold, the 
Department of Defense must submit a prior approval 
reprogramming to the congressional defense committees. In 
addition, guidelines on the application of prior approval 
reprogramming procedures for congressional special interest 
items are established elsewhere in this report.

                  Reprogramming Reporting Requirements

      The conferees direct the Under Secretary of the 
Department of Defense, Comptroller, to continue to provide the 
congressional defense committees quarterly, spreadsheet-based 
DD1416 reports for service and defense-wide accounts in titles 
III and IV of this Act as required in the statement of the 
managers accompanying the Conference report on the Department 
of Defense Appropriations Act, 2006.

                           Funding Increases

      The conferees direct that the funding increases outlined 
in these tables shall be provided only for the specific 
purposes indicated in the table.

                       National Guard Procurement

      The conferees agree that there is a substantial shortfall 
in equipment stocks for the National Guard, and that this 
shortfall is detrimental to Guard units being able to meet 
their dual-role mission of supplementing active duty forces 
overseas as well as responding to emergencies at home. The 
conferees are concerned that equipment budgeted annually for 
the National Guard could be diverted to other budget areas and 
nonReserve units, and therefore direct the Department of 
Defense to submit to the congressional defense committees not 
later than nine months after the enactment of this Act, a 
report on how the Department has obligated funds and provided 
the equipment designated for the National Guard in the budget 
submission and accompanying justification materials.


             Container Roll In--Roll Out Platform (M3 CROP)

      The conferees strongly urge the Secretary of the Army to 
allocate sufficient funding from amounts available under this 
heading to ensure the continuation of the program to procure 
the Container Roll In--Roll Out Platform (M3 CROP) in order to 
expedite logistical support to the warfighter.


                            MK-46/MK-54 Mods

      The conferees agree to provide $85,905,000 for MK-46/MK-
54 Mods. This is a reduction of $15,000,000 below the budget 
request due to fluctuating procurement quantities. The 
conferees understand that this funding will be sufficient to 
procure 160 MK-54 torpedo kits. The conferees are concerned 
about the inconsistent annual procurement quantities for this 
important program over the current Future Years Defense Plan. 
The conferees encourage the Navy to review this over the coming 
year and consider a more consistent annual rate, to provide 
manufacturing stability and lower unit costs.


                            DDG-1000 Program

      The conferees agree to provide $2,568,111,000 for the 
DDG-1000 (formerly DDX) Destroyer Program, and agree to delete 
language proposed by the House requiring full funding of a 
single lead ship. The effect of the conference agreement would 
allow the Navy to split fund twin lead ships of the DDG-1000 
class, if authorized in separate legislation by the Congress. 
This action is being taken based upon the expectation that the 
total cost of these two ships is well understood and low risk. 
The conferees are willing to make this one-time exception to 
the full funding principle because of the unique situation with 
the shipbuilding industrial base and with the DDG-1000 program. 
The conferees will not entertain future requests to fund ships 
other than under the full funding principle, except for those 
historically funded in this manner (aircraft carriers and some 
large deck amphibious ships).
      The unusual procurement of twin lead ships raises the 
risk that future design changes or production problems will 
impact two ships under construction simultaneously. This could 
raise costs significantly compared to other lead ship programs. 
However, the Navy believes the cost and schedule risk in the 
DDG-1000 program is low enough to permit the twin lead ship 
acquisition strategy. The Navy has identified the total cost to 
procure the twin lead ships of the DDG-1000 class as 
$6,582,200,000. The conferees insist that the Navy manage this 
program within that total cost, and will be unlikely to 
increase funding through a reprogramming or an additional 
budget request except in the case of emergency, natural 
disaster, or other impact arising from outside the Navy's 
shipbuilding program.

                            Ship Insulation

      The conferees understand that the insulation material 
currently under consideration for use in future ships has not 
been fully evaluated for safety. The conferees believe that any 
new materials should be at least as safe as those materials 
currently in use and recommend that insulating materials that 
do not meet the weight, smoke generation, toxicity and other 
safety criteria should not be used in ship construction.

             Completion of Prior Year Shipbuilding Programs

      The conference agreement provides $512,849,000 for the 
completion of prior year shipbuilding programs. The reduction 
of $65,000,000 from the budget estimate shall be allocated as 
shown below:

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
                                                                                Conference

                    Weapons Range Support Equipment

      The reduction of $1,665,000 in this program element 
deletes funding for the East Coast Undersea Warfare Training 
Range (USWTR). The House had proposed no funding for this 
project. None of the reduction is to be allocated against the 
Southern California ASW Range (SOAR) or the Barking Sands 
Underwater Range Expansion (BSURE) projects. In addition, the 
conferees direct that no fiscal year 2007 or prior year funding 
be obligated for the East Coast USWTR project except for 
activities directly associated with the National Environmental 
Policy Act (NEPA) process. The conferees further direct the 
Navy to clearly identify funding for the East Coast USWTR in 
future budget submissions.


                          Joint Strike Fighter

      The conference agreement provides $480,000,000 in 
Aircraft Procurement, Air Force, for the procurement of 2 
conventional take-off and landing (CTOL) variant F-35 Joint 
Strike Fighters in fiscal year 2007. In addition, $94,000,000 
is provided for advance procurement of 6 CTOL variants in 
fiscal year 2008. The conference agreement also provides 
$125,000,000 in Aircraft Procurement, Navy, for advance 
procurement of 6 short take-off and vertical landing (STOVL) 
variants. Combined, these quantities will allow F-35 production 
to continue to ramp up, but at a more modest rate and with less 
program risk than the program requested by the Department.

                        F-22A Raptor Procurement

      The conference agreement includes authority for a 
multiyear procurement of 60 F-22A aircraft, beginning with 20 
fully funded aircraft in fiscal year 2007. The conferees 
anticipate that the Department will budget for two subsequent 
lots of 20 aircraft in fiscal years 2008 and 2009. To enable 
this strategy, $210,000,000 of additional funds provided by 
both the House and the Senate were realigned from the F-22A 
budget line to the F-22A Advance Procurement line to provide 
the required funds for economic order quantity items, bringing 
the total budget for Advance Procurement to $687,404,000. The 
conferees expect that the Department of the Air Force will 
continue to seek improved efficiencies in this program.

        F-15 Advanced Electronically Scanned Array (AESA) Radars

      The conference agreement provides $72,000,000 to procure 
and install Advanced Electronically Scanned Array (AESA) radars 
only for the Air National Guard F-15C fleet. The Department of 
Defense is strongly encouraged to develop a plan for keeping 
the F-15 inventory updated with current technologies for its 
expected active service life.


              Minuteman III Propulsion Replacement Program

      The conference agreement provides $651,257,000 for 
Minuteman III modifications, including modifications to replace 
the missile propulsion system. The conferees disagree with 
proposals to terminate the program after fiscal year 2007 and 
expect that the Department of Defense will budget for the 
remaining requirements identified in the fiscal year 2007 
budget justifications in the fiscal year 2008 budget 
submission.

                    Global Positioning System (GPS)

      The budget request includes $97,182,000 in missile 
procurement with an additional $43,259,000 in advance 
procurement for GPS vehicles 16 through 18. The conferees note 
that the GPS IIF program has been troubled by cost growth and 
significant delays, and the Department of Defense has chosen 
not to pursue vehicles 13 through 18. Consequently, the 
conferees recommend $85,882,000 in missile procurement and no 
funding in advance procurement, a reduction of $11,300,000 and 
$43,259,000 respectively.
      The conferees share the Department's concerns regarding 
the short-term risk associated with the current constellation, 
and also the long-term risk of gaps in capability, especially 
as the country moves toward a transition to the GPS III system. 
The conferees note that, in general, on-orbit models of GPS are 
living longer than expected. Accordingly, the conferees believe 
that through proper constellation planning and management, and 
launching based on constellation need rather than on payload 
delivery, the Department can strike the right balance between 
short and long-term risks with the goal of maximizing 
constellation coverage. Therefore, the conferees encourage the 
Department to use this strategy in order to minimize risk and 
maximize coverage as it endeavors to maintain the current 
constellation, complete the development and fielding of the GPS 
IIF satellites, and transition to the new GPS III satellites.

                Evolved Expendable Launch Vehicle (EELV)

      The budget request includes $936,490,000 for EELV. The 
conferees recommend $856,490,000, a reduction of $80,000,000, 
and intend to monitor the balance between risk and return for 
costs and activities associated with launch preparation and 
capability. The conferees believe the Air Force should 
challenge the national launch government and industry team to 
develop and implement a strategy to eliminate unnecessary 
practices and excessive costs while protecting the viability of 
the program.
      Additionally, the conferees maintain interest in 
execution of the acquisition strategy for the Buy-3 contract. 
The conferees direct the Department of the Air Force to adopt 
acquisition practices for space launch relative to the EELV 
program that will maximize economic efficiencies through fiscal 
year 2010. Further, the conferees support open competition for 
launch services from qualified bidders. Therefore, the 
conferees direct the Department to create, adopt, and promote a 
set of criteria by which new entrants might more readily 
qualify for the EELV program, including opportunities to 
compete for demonstration launches, which will facilitate 
competition and promote assured access.


                  National Guard and Reserve Equipment

      The conferees agree that National Guard and Reserve 
forces are integral to our efforts in Iraq and Afghanistan and 
play a critical role in our Nation's response to national 
disasters. The conferees are aware that the equipment needs of 
our Reserve Component forces far exceed the amounts provided in 
the budget request and agree to provide an additional 
$290,000,000 for miscellaneous equipment for ``National Guard 
and Reserve Equipment'' as identified above.

                       Items of Special Interest

      The conferees agree that the National Guard and Reserve 
equipment program shall be executed by the heads of the Guard 
and Reserve components with priority consideration for 
miscellaneous equipment appropriations given to the following 
items as identified in Senate Report 109-292: Mobile Approach 
Control System, Virtual Warrior Interactive Program, Block 42 
F-16 Upgrades, Flex Train Combat Training, Battlefield Mobility 
Enhancers [MGators], M777A1 Lightweight 155mm Howitzers, Joint 
Threat Emitters, Line Haul Trucks, Thunder Radar Pod, Virtual 
Door Gunners, and Communications Equipment.

                    Defense Production Act Purchases

      The conferees agree to provide $63,184,000 for Defense 
Production Act Purchases instead of $39,384,000 as proposed by 
the House and $68,884,000 as proposed by the Senate.
      The conference agreement on items addressed by either the 
House or the Senate is as follows:


                         Special Interest Items

      Items for which additional funds have been provided as 
shown in the project level tables or in paragraphs using the 
phrase ``only for'' or ``only to'' in this report are 
congressional interest items for the purpose of the Base for 
Reprogramming (DD 1414). Each of these items must be carried on 
the DD Form 1414 at the stated amount, specifically addressed 
in the conference report. These items remain special interest 
items whether or not they are repeated in a subsequent 
conference report.

            Reprogramming Guidance for Acquisition Accounts

      The conferees direct the Department of Defense to 
continue to follow the reprogramming guidance specified in the 
report accompanying the House version of the fiscal year 2006 
Department of Defense Appropriations bill (H.R. 109-119). 
Specifically, the dollar threshold for reprogramming funds will 
remain at $20,000,000 for procurement, and $10,000,000 for 
research, development, test and evaluation. The Department 
shall continue to follow the limitation that prior approval 
reprogrammings are set at either the specified dollar threshold 
or 20% of the procurement or research, development, test and 
evaluation line, whichever is less. These thresholds are 
cumulative. Therefore, if the combined value of transfers into 
or out of a procurement (P-1) or research, development, test 
and evaluation (R-1) line exceeds the identified threshold, the 
Department of Defense must submit a prior approval 
reprogramming to the congressional defense committees. In 
addition, guidelines on the application of prior approval 
reprogramming procedures for congressional special interest 
items are established elsewhere in this report.

                           Funding Increases

      The conferees direct that the funding increases outlined 
in these tables shall be provided only for the specific 
purposes indicated in the table.

                   Joint Tactical Radio System (JTRS)

      In July 2006, the Department of Defense established a new 
management arrangement for the JTRS program. As a result, the 
Department of the Navy is now the lead component for JTRS 
development. In support of this new arrangement, the conferees 
agree to transfer JTRS research and development funding from 
the ``Research, Development, Test and Evaluation, Army'' 
account to the ``Research, Development, Test and Evaluation, 
Navy'' account. The conferees note the JTRS Joint Program 
Executive Office remains in control of JTRS development funding 
and must approve any obligation or transfer of execution year 
funds for radio development associated with any of the JTRS 
program elements.

                          Prompt Global Strike

      The budget request includes $127,000,000 to demonstrate 
the feasibility of using existing TRIDENT II (D-5) missiles 
with conventional payloads to provide a prompt global strike 
capability. The conferees believe that fundamental issues about 
the requirement for and use of this weapon must be addressed 
prior to determining the efficacy of this program. Therefore, 
the conferees are providing $5,000,000 in Research, 
Development, Test and Evaluation, Defense-Wide for a study to 
be conducted by the National Academy of Sciences to analyze the 
mission requirement and, where appropriate, consider and 
recommend alternatives that meet the prompt global strike 
mission in the near term (1-2 years), the mid-term (3-5 years), 
and the long term. The study should include analyses of the 
military, political and international issues associated with 
each alternative. The study should consider technology options 
for achieving desired objectives as well as mitigating policy 
concerns. The study is due to the congressional defense 
committees by March 15, 2007. In addition, the conferees are 
providing $20,000,000 in Research, Development, Test and 
Evaluation, Navy for developmental efforts under the 
Conventional Trident Modification program. These funds should 
be used to focus on those developmental items which are common 
to all the global strike alternatives until the completion of 
the study and a determination has been made on the best course 
of action in this matter.

  Joint Strike Fighter Alternate Engine Development and Cost Analysis

      The conferees recommend an additional $170,000,000 in 
Research, Development, Test and Evaluation, Air Force and 
$170,000,000 in Research, Development, Test and Evaluation, 
Navy for continuing development of the F-136 engine for the 
Joint Strike Fighter program. The conferees direct the Under 
Secretary of Defense for Acquisition, Technology and Logistics 
to sponsor a comprehensive independent cost analysis of the 
Joint Strike Fighter engine program. The conferees strongly 
encourage the analysis be conducted by the Institute for 
Defense Analyses (IDA). This analysis shall include but not be 
limited to: (1) a comparison of costs associated with the 
development of the F-135 and F-136 engines; (2) an evaluation 
of potential savings achieved by eliminating or continuing the 
development and production of an alternate engine over the 
program's life cycle; and (3) the potential effects on the 
industrial base of eliminating or continuing the development 
and production of an alternate engine over the program's life 
cycle. This analysis shall be transmitted to the congressional 
defense committees not later than March 15, 2007.
      The conferees in no way intend for this analysis to be an 
excuse for the Department of Defense not to fully fund the 
development of both the F-135 and the F-136 engines in fiscal 
year 2008. All evidence suggests that the development of two 
alternate engines will lead to cost savings through 
competition, increased capabilities for the warfighter, and a 
strengthened industrial base. Accordingly, the conferees direct 
the Department of Defense to fund the continued development of 
both the engines in the fiscal year 2008 budget submission 
while this cost analysis is ongoing.

               Department of Defense Biometrics Programs

      The conferees reaffirm the authority of the Secretary of 
the Army as Executive Agent for all biometrics within the 
Department of Defense under Public Law 106-246, and encourage 
the Department of Defense to designate a Principal Staff 
Assistant to define policy, architecture, and interagency 
cooperation. The conferees look forward to receiving the final 
report of the Defense Science Board study on biometrics and 
receiving the associated recommendations of the Secretary of 
Defense by January 15, 2007.

                           Alternative Fuels

      At the behest of Congress, the Air Force initiated 
research into developing alternatives to jet fuels in current 
use. That research has paid dividends. A recent report from the 
Air Force indicates that substituting standard jet fuels (such 
as JP-4 and JP-8) with coal-based synthetic fuels and natural 
gas derivatives could result in savings of up to two-thirds of 
the cost of a gallon of JP-8. Moreover, the Air Force research 
shows that these alternative fuels burn cleaner than standard 
jet fuels, a result that portends savings from lower 
maintenance and engine replacement costs. In light of these 
findings, the Navy reports that it plans to initiate a pilot 
program to develop alternative fuels. Given the high costs of 
fuel and maintenance, the conferees are encouraged by these 
reports and believe that the military services should continue 
to pursue alternative fuels research and development. As such, 
the conferees encourage the Department to provide sufficient 
funding in its fiscal year 2008 and future budget requests to 
continue these important research programs.

                    Specialty Steel Industrial Base

      The Department of Defense's demand for iron-based alloy 
aviation specialty steels has dramatically increased as a 
result of continuing deployments to the overseas theaters of 
operation. Today, there is only one domestic supplier for a 
unique process which utilizes vacuum inducted melt/vacuum arc 
re-melt, the process which gives aviation grade steels their 
required properties. These specialty steels are critical to 
building high technology U.S. military weapon systems. Further, 
there has been a related and dramatic increase in the raw 
material needed to make these specialty steels. Lead times for 
these raw materials have grown from 3 months to 1 year. 
According to the Army, the overall effect on lead times for 
spare part deliverables has swelled in some cases to greater 
than 24 months. As such, the conferees encourage the Department 
of Defense to partner with domestic industry to develop a 
greater capacity to meet the delivery requirements for aviation 
parts to the military within an acceptable time frame. The 
conferees suggest that the Department explore a 50/50 cost 
share project between the Federal government, private industry, 
and/or state governments as the best means to create this 
capacity as rapidly as possible.


 Medical Countermeasures Against Acute Radiation Syndrome and Similar 
                                Threats

      The conferees recognize that acute radiation syndrome and 
other forms of radiation sickness could potentially afflict 
forward deployed members of the military, and that currently 
there are no effective means of treating individuals exposed to 
radiation or a nuclear attack. Therefore, the conferees direct 
the Secretary of Defense to submit to the congressional defense 
committees a report that outlines a plan for procuring medical 
countermeasures that will treat forward deployed service 
members against the lethal effects of acute radiation syndrome, 
to include neutropenia and thrombocytopenia. This report will 
also identify the countermeasures required to protect service 
members in the event of a nuclear or bioterrorist attack, a 
plan to forward deploy those countermeasures, and an assessment 
of costs associated with implementing this plan. This report 
should be provided no later than March 15, 2007.

                            Stryker Upgrades

      The conferees are pleased with the performance of the 
Stryker armored vehicle in Iraq and encourage the Army to 
pursue new technologies and capabilities for the Stryker to 
improve the capabilities of the vehicle on the battlefield. The 
conferees encourage the Army to pursue these technology 
upgrades including an integrated power management system, 
increased improvised explosive device and mine blast 
protection, improved situational awareness, new brakes and 
suspension, and the addition of the XM307 gun, Javelin missile 
and target detection capabilities.


                      Micromanufacturing Processes

      The conferees are aware of the growing need for 
microdevices and improved micromanufacturing processes to meet 
Defense requirements for smart micromachines. Streamlined 
micromanufacturing processes will enhance the Department's 
development and use of embedded biochemical sensors and 
miniature safe-and-arm devices. The Department is encouraged to 
work with universities with demonstrated expertise in novel 
micromanufacturing processes and equipment.

                          Corrosion Protection

      The Navy spends significant amounts of its fleet 
maintenance budget on corrosion protection. The conferees are 
aware of important research performed by the Center for 
Photochemical Sciences that develops corrosion resistant marine 
paint using photo-cure technology. These new photo-cure 
technologies can increase corrosion protection while reducing 
environmentally harmful emissions. This technology may provide 
unique advantages over current materials. The conferees 
encourage the Office of Naval Research to consider continued 
funding for this important research project.


                 Tanker Replacement Development Program

      The conference agreement provides $70,000,000 for 
development of the KC-135 tanker replacement, as opposed to 
$203,932,000 as proposed by the House. The Senate provided no 
funding for this purpose. The amount provided in the conference 
agreement was identified in writing by the Department of 
Defense as the level needed to meet all fiscal year 2007 
requirements.

                         B-52 Stand-off Jammer

      The conferees note that the Air Force has terminated the 
B-52 Stand-off Jammer program for airborne electronic attack 
and agree to rescind fiscal year 2006 funds appropriated for 
this purpose in a General Provision. However, there remains a 
future requirement for a persistent stand-off jamming platform, 
despite the longer than originally anticipated service life of 
the Navy's re-winged EA-6B fleet. The conferees expect that the 
Air Force will reevaluate the future persistent stand-off 
jammer requirement in fiscal year 2007 and encourage the 
Department to submit a reprogramming request should the Air 
Force determine that the B-52 is the proper platform to conduct 
this mission.

                             A-10 Squadrons

      The budget request includes $64,000,000 for continued 
development of a propulsion upgrade program for the A-10 
aircraft. However, since the budget submission, this program 
has been terminated by the Air Force. The House provided 
$16,771,000 for A-10 Squadrons, a reduction of $64,000,000, due 
to the cancellation of the program. The Senate included 
$31,971,000, a reduction of $48,800,000. The conferees agree to 
provide the Senate amount and expect that the remaining 
$15,200,000 identified for the cancelled propulsion upgrade 
program will be dedicated to the shortfall in the A-10 
precision engagement development program.

                     Hybrid Fuel Cell Power Systems

      The conferees encourage continued development and testing 
of hybrid fuel cell power systems for SATCOM systems by the Air 
Force's Research Lab--Information Directorate in Rome, New 
York. The conferees encourage the Air Force to continue this 
important research as it pertains to current and future Air 
Force missions.

    J-STARS Communication, Navigation, Surveillance and Air Traffic 
                          Management (CNS/ATM)

      A significant investment of over $50,000,000 to date has 
been made to accomplish the Communication, Navigation, 
Surveillance and Air Traffic Management (CNS/ATM) modification 
on the E-8C fleet. The fiscal year 2007 budget request includes 
$20,000,000 for this effort. The program is on budget, on 
schedule, and is meeting its program goals. The conferees 
believe CNS/ATM modification is crucial to the long term 
sustainment of the E-8C Joint STARS Weapon System to support 
current and future military operations and therefore provide an 
additional $3,600,000 for this effort. The conferees expect the 
Air Force to complete development activities and initiate a 
timely retrofit of the E-8C fleet.

                         Combat Identification

      Multiple incidents in current and past conflicts and 
exercises have repeatedly demonstrated that positive hostile 
identification is crucial to using the full military 
capabilities and enabling joint interoperability of our 
technologically advanced weapon systems, such as the F-22, F/A-
18, and MEADS. Furthermore, fratricide and strict combat Rules 
of Engagement can limit and restrict their combat employment, 
thereby losing U.S. technological advantage and putting our 
forces at risk. Since combat identification is only as good as 
the target signature databases, securing the continued 
development and sustainment of these databases and coordinating 
their joint applications must be a priority. Due to the 
critical nature of this joint military requirement and since 
databases continue to receive low priority, the conferees 
encourage the following: (1) Joint Theater and Missile Defense 
Organization and Joint Forces Command should coordinate and 
integrate combat ID signature database requirements, 
applications, and interoperability, in coordination with the 
National Signatures Program (NSP); (2) the Department of 
Defense should include funding for combat ID database 
development, support, and sustainment through the Future Years 
Defense Program; and (3) Aeronautical Systems Center (ASC) 
should be designated the Department of Defense executing agent 
for the long-term development, application, support, and 
sustainment of these databases and associated technologies and 
tools. Funding for these database efforts should be joint, with 
the respective services funding their specific production and 
support requirements.

        Transformational Satellite Communications System (TSAT)

      The conferees agree to provide $737,102,000 for the TSAT 
program, $130,000,000 below the budget request. This amount 
provides sufficient resources to support continued competition 
with two industry teams and to support continued development of 
the program's ground segment. Further, the conferees direct the 
Air Force to provide a quarterly program performance report on 
the program that: (1) includes Earned Value Management System 
information and a narrative summary that addresses technical 
milestones, program cost, schedule, performance, and any 
corrective action required for departure from the plan for the 
previous quarter, and (2) includes the program plan for the 
next quarter.

                     Operationally Responsive Space

      The conferees provide the budget request of $35,625,000 
for Operationally Responsive Space, of which $19,524,000 is for 
the Affordable Responsive Space-lift (ARES) program, 
$16,000,000 is for the FALCON small launch vehicle program, and 
the remaining amount for the TACSAT program. The conferees are 
pleased that the Air Force initiated a program element for 
Operationally Responsive Space and strongly support the 
concept.
      The conferees note that, among projects planned by the 
Air Force and the National Reconnaissance Office over the next 
few years, several missions will require small launch vehicles 
of similar capability. Therefore, the conferees encourage these 
organizations to consider opportunities to partner and use 
their combined purchasing power to leverage capability and cost 
through procuring small launch vehicles for future space 
missions.
      The conferees support the concept of a reusable launch 
vehicle, but question the pursuit of the ARES program as it 
exists. Further, the conferees note the lack of a comprehensive 
strategy for space launch. Therefore, the conferees direct no 
funds appropriated in this bill may be used for the ARES 
program. Of the $19,524,000 budgeted for ARES, the conferees 
direct that $7,500,000 be used for the purposes described in 
the classified annex and the remaining $12,024,000 be used to 
complete the purchase of multiple small launch vehicles. Should 
any funds appropriated to this program element for the above 
specific purposes become available for any reason, the 
conferees urge the Air Force to supplement the funds provided 
for the purchase of multiple small launch vehicles.

  Combatant Commanders' Integrated Command and Control System (CCIC2S)

      The budget requests $50,908,000 for the CCIC2S. CCIC2S 
was planned to provide combatant commanders a command and 
control system for Integrated Tactical Warning and Attack 
Assessment (ITW/AA) that would incorporate air, missile 
defense, and space components. The conferees understand the Air 
Force Space Command and United States Strategic Command plan to 
remove the space mission from Cheyenne Mountain Operations 
Center (CMOC) and therefore from CCIC2S. However, the conferees 
believe that in order to accomplish the ITW/AA mission 
effectively a closer relationship should exist between the 
missile defense mission at CMOC and activity at the Joint 
National Integration Center.
      As a result, the conferees recommend $43,500,000, a 
reduction of $7,408,000, in research and development funding 
for the CCIC2S program. These funds are provided to complete 
the missile defense activity and re-start work on the Single 
Integrated Space Picture (SISP) as a part of the aforementioned 
plan. The conferees note the growing importance for the SISP as 
a national capability to provide situational awareness of space 
and support improvements in that mission area. No funds have 
been provided for the other space-related items as requested 
due to pending changes in Air Force Space Command. A similar 
reduction is made to ``Other Procurement, Air Force'' for the 
same purposes.


                Chemical and Biological Defense Program

      The conference agreement provides an increase of 
$25,000,000 for the Chemical and Biological Defense Initiative. 
The Secretary of Defense is directed to allocate these funds 
among the programs that yield the greatest gain in our chem-bio 
defensive posture. The conferees further direct that such funds 
may not be obligated until 15 days after a report, including a 
description of projects to be funded, is provided to the 
congressional defense committees.

           MDA--Space Tracking and Surveillance System (STSS)

      The budget request includes $390,585,000 for STSS, 
including $97,000,000 for the Block 2012 space system. The 
conference agreement includes $323,585,000, a reduction of 
$67,000,000 for Block 2012. The conferees note that two 
demonstration satellites will be launched in fiscal year 2007 
and that exploitation of data from these satellites will allow 
the Missile Defense Agency to develop sensor requirements and a 
concept of operations that will drive the Block 2012 space 
system. As a result, the conferees believe it is premature to 
award a full Block 2012 space system acquisition contract and 
direct the Missile Defense Agency to use the appropriated STSS 
Block 2012 funds to initiate a contract to: (1) pursue sensor 
technology development and risk reduction; (2) complete the 
definition of the Block 2012 system through analysis and 
trades; and, (3) develop corresponding system requirements 
leveraging the demonstration satellites.

               MDA--Avoidance of Congressional Reductions

      The conferees remain concerned that the Missile Defense 
Agency is moving funds between various elements and programs 
and/or moving contract scope across elements and programs in 
order to avoid reductions made by the congressional defense 
committees. This practice is unacceptable and MDA is directed 
to use prior approval reprogramming procedures specified in the 
report accompanying the House version of the fiscal year 2007 
Department of Defense Appropriations bill (H.R. 109-504) for 
any movement of funds or contract scope beyond the $10,000,000 
threshold in research, development, test and evaluation. The 
MDA shall follow the limitation that prior approval 
reprogramming is set at either the specified dollar threshold 
or 20% of the line, whichever is less. The conferees agree 
that: Ballistic Missile Defense--AEGIS, PE 0603892C; Ballistic 
Missile Defense Terminal Defense Segment, PE 0603881C; 
Ballistic Missile Defense Midcourse Defense Segment, PE 
0603882C; and Multiple Kill Vehic1e, PE 0603894C are designated 
as congressional special interest items subject to prior 
approval reprogramming procedures.

                 MDA--Other Transaction Authority (OTA)

      The conferees are concerned with the continued use of OTA 
contracts by the Missile Defense Agency. These OTA contracts 
lack the customary safeguards found under FAR-based contracts 
for organizational conflict of interest, truth in negotiations 
and submission of cost and pricing data. The conferees strongly 
encourage the Missile Defense Agency to convert large 
development and procurement contracts using OTA to FAR- based 
contracts. Accordingly, the conferees direct the Missile 
Defense Agency to submit a report on the use of Other 
Transaction Authority contracts by the Missile Defense Agency. 
This report should include the number, value, and justification 
for the use of Other Transaction Authority. The report should 
be delivered to the congressional defense committees 90 days 
after the enactment of this Act.

                       MilTech Extension Program

      The conferees support the ``MilTech Extension'' program 
and encourage the Department of Defense to fund this program in 
the fiscal year 2008 budget request. MilTech has been highly 
successful at helping to transition technologies from 
innovative small companies to Department of Defense operational 
use.

                        MDA--AEGIS Improvements

      The conferees have provided $65,000,000 for AEGIS 
Improvements. Of that amount $15,000,000 is available for the 
Sea-Based Terminal Capability, and $50,000,000 is available for 
development and procurement of SM-3 Interceptors.
      The conferees are aware that there is an additional 
requirement of $20,000,000 in fiscal year 2007 for Sea-Based 
Terminal Defense, and direct the Missile Defense Agency to 
submit a prior approval reprogramming to fully fund this 
requirement.

                          Airborne Laser (ABL)

      The conferees are encouraged by the recent technical 
progress that the Airborne Laser (ABL) program has made over 
the last two years with the accomplishment of the firing of the 
high energy laser and the flight testing of the associated beam 
control/fire control system. The conferees also note that these 
technical challenges were accomplished while the program stayed 
within the government determined schedule and budget.
      As the acknowledged Primary Boost Phase Defense, the 
conferees are concerned by the recent decision of the Missile 
Defense Agency (MDA) to slip the planning for the development 
of an operational ABL by two years later than proposed in the 
fiscal year 2006 budget submittal. The conferees believe that 
if the ABL succeeds in the next two years of testing and 
accomplishes its main test objectives leading towards a lethal 
shoot down demonstration in late 2008, MDA should move the 
program into development of an operational ABL configuration at 
the earliest date.
      Therefore, the conferees encourage MDA to re-evaluate 
funding in the Future Years Defense Plan to ensure that funding 
levels for ABL are consistent with its status as the Primary 
Boost Phase Defense. Further, the conferees recommend MDA 
develop a plan that would allow for the development of an 
advanced ABL configuration in the shortest time after a 
successful lethal shoot down demonstration. This plan should be 
delivered to the congressional defense committees 90 days after 
the enactment of this Act.

      Defense Integrated Military Human Resources System (DIMHRS)

      The conferees direct the Secretary of Defense and the 
currently participating individual services to maintain DIMHRS 
application development and implementation and DIMHRS 
performance development and emergent requirement efforts at the 
Space and Naval Warfare (SPAWAR) Systems Center (SSC) in New 
Orleans.

           Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA)

      The conferees provide $3,135,303,000 for DARPA, a 
reduction of $159,045,000 from the request. The conferees 
direct the Director of DARPA to submit to the congressional 
defense committees no later than sixty days after enactment of 
this Act a report in writing that details by program the 
application of undistributed reductions made in this Act.
      The conferees commend DARPA for its responsiveness and 
assistance in delineating its sizeable programmatic and 
budgetary information. However, given the magnitude of DARPA's 
budget and the significant quantity of programs managed by 
DARPA, the conferees believe that future budget justification 
materials should provide more individual programmatic detail, 
to include budget information, programmatic achievements and 
goals by fiscal year, as well as transition plans.


                     DEFENSE WORKING CAPITAL FUNDS

      The conference agreement provides $1,345,998,000, as 
proposed by both the House and the Senate, for the Defense 
Working Capital Funds.

                     NATIONAL DEFENSE SEALIFT FUND

      The conference agreement provides a total of 
$1,071,932,000 for the National Defense Sealift Fund as 
proposed by the House instead of $616,932,000 as proposed by 
the Senate. The conference agreement restores the reduction of 
$455,000,000 for the T-AKE cargo/ammunition ship program 
proposed by the Senate.

            PENTAGON RESERVATION MAINTENANCE REVOLVING FUND

      The conference agreement provides $18,500,000, as 
proposed by both the House and the Senate, for the Pentagon 
Reservation Maintenance Revolving Fund.


         DRUG INTERDICTION AND COUNTER-DRUG ACTIVITIES, DEFENSE

      The conference agreement provides $977,632,000 for ``Drug 
Interdiction and Counter-Drug Activities, Defense'' instead of 
$936,990,000 as proposed by the House and $978,212,000 as 
proposed by the Senate. Adjustments to the budget request are 
as follows:


                    OFFICE OF THE INSPECTOR GENERAL

      The conferees have agreed to provide a total amount of 
$216,297,000 for the Office of the Inspector General. Of this 
amount, $214,897,000 shall be for operation and maintenance, 
and $1,400,000 shall be for procurement.


   CENTRAL INTELLIGENCE AGENCY RETIREMENT AND DISABILITY SYSTEM FUND

      The conference agreement provides $256,400,000 for 
payment to the Central Intelligence Agency Retirement and 
Disability System Fund, as proposed by both the House and the 
Senate.

               INTELLIGENCE COMMUNITY MANAGEMENT ACCOUNT

                     (INCLUDING TRANSFER OF FUNDS)

      The conference agreement provides $621,611,000 for the 
Intelligence Community Management Account, instead of 
$597,111,000 as proposed by the House and $597,011,000 as 
proposed by the Senate.
      The conference agreement provides for a transfer of 
$39,000,000 to the Department of Justice for the National Drug 
Intelligence Center to support the Department of Defense's 
counter-drug intelligence responsibilities, the same amount as 
proposed by the House.

                  Iraq National Intelligence Estimate

      The conferees did not include bill language requiring the 
Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI) to 
provide a National Intelligence Estimate (NIE) for Iraq. The 
conferees understand that the ODNI is currently drafting such a 
document. The conferees urge the ODNI in creating the NIE to 
follow the parameters set out in the Senate bill in Title VII, 
under the heading ``Intelligence Community Management 
Account.''

                     TITLE VIII--GENERAL PROVISIONS

      The conference agreement incorporated general provisions 
of the House and Senate versions of the bill which were not 
amended. Those general provisions that were amended in 
conference follow:
      The conferees include a general provision (Section 8005) 
as proposed by the House and the Senate concerning transfer 
authority. The conferees also include language that requires a 
prior approval reprogramming before obligating funds pursuant 
to section 1206 of Public Law 109-163.
      The conferees include a general provision (Section 8008) 
which amends language, as proposed by the House and the Senate, 
concerning multi-year procurement authority. The conference 
agreement provides multi-year procurement authority for C-17 
Globemaster; F-22A; MH-60R Helicopters; MH-60R Helicopter 
mission equipment; and V-22 Osprey.
      The conferees include a general provision (Section 8023) 
which amends language, as proposed by the House and Senate, 
with respect to Federally Funded Research and Development 
Centers.
      Section 8024 in title VIII of this Act prohibits the use 
of government funds to purchase armor steel plate that was not 
melted and rolled in the United States or Canada. The conferees 
are concerned that the Department of Defense may alter or 
weaken the intent of Congress through changes to the 
implementing instructions. The conferees direct the Department 
to discuss any proposed changes with the relevant congressional 
committees and gain congressional approval before altering the 
current interpretation of this prohibition.
      The conferees include a general provision (Section 8039) 
which amends language, as proposed by the House and Senate, to 
make funds available under ``Operation and Maintenance, 
Defense-Wide'' for the Office of Economic Adjustment to make 
grants.
      The conferees include a general provision (Section 8040) 
which amends language, as proposed by the House and Senate, 
recommending rescissions. The rescissions agreed to are:

      The conferees include a general provision (Section 8077) 
which amends language, as proposed by the House and Senate, to 
reduce funds available in Operation and Maintenance accounts by 
$158,100,000 for excessive growth in other contracted services.
      The conferees include a general provision (Section 8079) 
which amends language, as proposed by the House and Senate, 
concerning the Arrow missile defense program. The conference 
agreement provides a total of $137,894,000 for the Arrow 
program of which $53,000,000 is earmarked for missile component 
co-production, and $20,400,000 is earmarked only for the Short 
Range Ballistic Missile Defense initiative.
      The conferees include a general provision (Section 8080) 
which amends language, as proposed by the House and Senate, to 
provide transfer authority for specified shipbuilding programs. 
The agreement provides total transfer authority of $512,849,000 
instead of $436,449,000 as proposed by the House and 
$557,849,000 as proposed by the Senate. The agreement also 
distributes funds to specified shipbuilding programs.
      The conferees include a general provision (Section 8088) 
which amends language, as proposed by the House, to provide 
$11,100,000 for grants to various organizations.
      The conferees include a general provision (Section 8096) 
which amends language, as proposed by the House and Senate to 
provide special transfer authority for Navy shipbuilding 
programs. The agreement accepts provisions contained in the 
House bill, but accepts the Senate proposal regarding the 
availability of transferred funds. The agreement specifies that 
transferred funds are available for the time period of the 
original appropriation and are not extended by the transfer.
      The conferees include a general provision (Section 8102) 
which amends language, as proposed by the Senate, to provide 
funds for the operations and development of training and 
technology for warfighting and first responder training at the 
Joint Interagency Training Center-East.
      The conferees include a general provision (Section 8103) 
which amends language, as proposed by the Senate, to extend the 
authority of a Defense Advanced Research Project Agency program 
through September 30, 2008.
      The conferees include a general provision (Section 8106) 
which amends language, as proposed by the House and Senate, to 
reduce funds available in this Act to reflect savings from 
revised economic assumptions.
      The conferees include a general provision (Section 8110) 
which amends language, as proposed by the Senate, which 
requires the Secretary of the Air Force to submit a cost-
benefit analysis of research and development activities.
      The conferees include a general provision (Section 8111) 
which amends language, as proposed by the House, to prohibit 
the use of funds provided in this Act to waive or modify 
regulations concerning the National Security Personnel System.
      The conferees include a general provision (Section 8112) 
that clarifies the definition of ``this Act''.


                         Reporting Requirements

      The conferees direct the Secretary of Defense to provide 
a report to the congressional defense committees within 30 days 
of enactment of this legislation on the allocation of the funds 
within the accounts listed in this title. The Secretary shall 
submit updated reports 30 days after the end of each fiscal 
quarter until funds listed in this title are no longer 
available for obligation. The conferees direct that these 
reports shall include: a detailed accounting of obligations and 
expenditures of appropriations provided in this title by 
program and subactivity group for the continuation of the war 
in Iraq and Afghanistan; and a listing of equipment procured 
using funds provided in this title.
      The conferees expect that in order to meet unanticipated 
requirements, the Department of Defense may need to transfer 
funds within these appropriation accounts for purposes other 
than those specified in this report. The conferees direct the 
Department of Defense to follow normal prior approval 
reprogramming procedures should it be necessary to transfer 
funding between different appropriations accounts in this 
title.

                                 Reset

      The high operating tempo resulting from training and 
subsequent deployment to Iraq and Afghanistan, combined with 
severe environmental conditions, results in an equipment wear 
out factor that is several times the peace time rate. Combat 
losses add to the overall deterioration in the readiness rating 
of entire categories of equipment ranging from night vision 
devices to communications equipment to combat and support 
vehicles. While units deploying to combat theaters and in the 
combat theaters are fully equipped with the most capable 
equipment, units at home station are often faced with equipment 
shortages or unready equipment. These shortages limit the 
capacity of units to conduct readiness training, and in the 
case of the National Guard, may limit the capacity of units to 
perform state emergency missions. Units returning from 
deployment go through the reset process in which equipment is 
repaired and battle losses are replaced in order to return the 
unit to full readiness posture.
      The conferees are concerned that the reset effort has not 
kept up with the requirements generated by the ongoing Global 
War on Terror, especially in the Army and Marine Corps for 
which nearly continuous ground combat operations have been 
especially hard on equipment. The conferees understand that the 
necessary capacity is available at industry and government 
facilities to repair or replace the worn out equipment. The 
House and Senate each included funds for reset in their version 
of the Defense Appropriations Act for fiscal year 2007. The 
conferees have worked closely with the Army and Marine Corps to 
examine reset funding requirements and the services' capacity 
to execute those funds and accomplish the reset mission as 
quickly as possible to ensure military readiness. Within title 
IX, the conferees have provided $17.1 billion for additional 
fiscal year 2007 reset funding for the Army and $5.8 billion 
for the Marine Corps, amounts identified by these services as 
necessary to meet their fiscal year 2007 requirements. The 
conferees recommend this substantial funding increase in order 
to ensure the readiness of the armed forces. The conferees note 
that this critical funding has been provided without a formal 
request from the administration and urge the Department of 
Defense to include funding in future budget requests to address 
reset requirements and ensure that readiness goals are 
achieved.


         Home Station Readiness Training, Logistics, and Reset

      In this title the conferees recommend $44,260,734,000 in 
the operation and maintenance accounts. In addition to 
substantial funding required to support continuing combat and 
security operations in Afghanistan and Iraq, the conferees 
understand that significant amounts are required in support of 
a range of home station activities, including unit 
mobilizations, specialized pre-deployment training, 
transportation, reset, and post-deployment training. The 
funding provided in this title, particularly the substantial 
funding for repair of equipment, will ensure recovery to 
established readiness standards for full spectrum combat 
operations around the world. To the extent that training, 
maintenance and reset activities displace normal peacetime 
training events, the amounts provided in home station operation 
and maintenance lines in title II of this conference report 
have been reduced. The Department of Defense should allocate 
title IX operation and maintenance funding accordingly to 
ensure full support for pre-deployment and post-deployment 
operations, as well as for continuing combat and security 
operations in support of the Global War on Terror.

               Afghanistan and Iraq Security Forces Funds

      The conferees provide $1,500,000,000 for the Afghanistan 
Security Forces Fund and $1,700,000,000 for the Iraq Security 
Forces Fund. These funds will continue the training of 
indigenous security forces and provide equipment and 
infrastructure essential to developing capable security forces 
in Afghanistan and Iraq. The conferees direct the Department to 
continue to provide comprehensive financial plans for the 
security forces funds as directed in the Emergency Supplemental 
Appropriations Act for Defense, the Global War on Terror, and 
Hurricane Recovery, 2006 (Public Law 109-234). The conferees 
further expect that up to $2,000,000 of the funds provided for 
the Afghanistan Security Forces Fund be available for 
infrastructure improvements for the Afghanistan military legal 
system, as proposed by the Senate.

                 Commander's Emergency Response Program

      The conferees recommend $500,000,000 to continue the 
Commander's Emergency Response Program (CERP). The conferees 
direct the Department to submit quarterly reports on CERP not 
later than 15 days after the end of each fiscal quarter to the 
congressional defense committees. The quarterly reports should 
include detailed information on the source of funds for the 
program, the allocation and use of funds during that quarter, 
the recipient of the funds, and the specific purposes for which 
the funds were used.


                            C-17 Procurement

      The conference agreement provides an additional 
$2,094,000,000 for 10 C-17 aircraft in title IX to support 
airlift requirements in the Global War on Terror. The Air Force 
is encouraged to rapidly procure these additional aircraft in 
the most efficient method possible. Reprogramming of these 
funds for uses other than procurement of C-l7s, and ancillary 
equipment, is expressly prohibited without prior approval of 
Congress.
      The conferees are concerned that the Department of 
Defense study establishing the strategic airlift requirement 
may be flawed and may seriously understate the need for C-17 
aircraft. The Government Accountability Office has raised 
questions about the study and has suggested that Congress 
exercise caution in using that study to make investment 
decisions. The conferees direct the Department of Defense to 
continue funding C-l7 production in the fiscal year 2008 
budget.

                  National Guard and Reserve Equipment

      The Senate included a general provision which provided 
that $2,440,000,000 of the procurement funds in title IX shall 
be available for the National Guard and the Army Reserve for 
National Guard and Reserve equipment. The House provided 
$500,000,000 in National Guard and Reserve Equipment for the 
Army National Guard to continue an effort begun in fiscal year 
2006 to meet the ``Essential 10 Equipment Requirements for the 
Global War on Terror'' as identified by the National Guard 
Bureau. The conferees direct that $2,940,000,000 of the 
procurement funds provided in title IX shall be available only 
for the Army National Guard and the Army Reserve, and that 
$500,000,000 of those funds shall be available for the purposes 
identified in House Report 109-504 under the heading ``National 
Guard and Reserve Equipment''. The conferees further direct the 
Chief of the National Guard Bureau to submit a report 
specifying the items to be procured with this funding and a 
fielding plan for this equipment not later than 60 days after 
the enactment of this Act.


                  OTHER DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE PROGRAMS

         Drug Interdiction and Counter-Drug Activities, Defense

      The conferees are concerned with the increased level of 
poppy production in Afghanistan. Since fiscal year 2004, 
Congress has provided the Department of Defense nearly 
$500,000,000 to curtail poppy production and train and equip 
the Afghanistan special narcotics police units and border 
agents. The conferees have included an additional $100,000,000 
to continue to expedite this effort in fiscal year 2007. The 
conferees direct the Department of Defense to provide the 
congressional defense committees with a detailed execution plan 
on the use of these funds. The Department may not obligate any 
of these funds until the committees have received this report. 
Further, these funds may not be used for the construction or 
modification of facilities. In addition, the Department is 
directed to provide to the Appropriations Committees an 
interagency report on the Administration's plan to address drug 
production, drug smuggling, and narco-terrorism financing in 
the Central Asian region no later than March 1, 2007.

    TITLE X--FISCAL YEAR 2006 WILDLAND FIRE EMERGENCY APPROPRIATIONS

      Title X of the conference agreement provides $100,000,000 
for the Department of the Interior and $100,000,000 for the 
Forest Service in emergency firefighting funds. These funds are 
critically needed for wildfire suppression activities and to 
repay other appropriations accounts from which funds were 
transferred on an emergency basis to pay for firefighting 
costs. Fiscal year 2006 has been the worst wildfire year in 
decades. The funds are related to unanticipated needs and are 
for situations that are sudden, urgent, and unforeseen, 
consistent with the Congressional budget resolution's 
definition of emergency spending.

                 Compliance With House Resolution 1000

      The conference agreement contains no appropriations as 
defined in House Resolution 1000 that were not otherwise 
addressed in the House or Senate bills or reports.


                DIVISION B--CONTINUING RESOLUTION, 2007

      The conference agreement includes division B making 
continuing appropriations for fiscal year 2007 for those 
departments and agencies for which appropriations will not be 
enacted into law before October 1, 2006.
