                        completed a preliminary design review; 
                        or
                            (ii) demonstrated an equivalent

SEC. 127. SENSE OF CONGRESS ON AIRCRAFT CARRIER PROCUREMENT SCHEDULES.

    (a) Findings.--Congress finds the following:
            (1) In the Congressional Budget Office report 
        titled ``An Analysis of the Navy's Fiscal Year 2016 
        Shipbuilding Plan'', the Office stated as follows: ``To 
        prevent the carrier force from declining to 10 ships in 
        the 2040s, 1 short of its inventory goal of 11, the 
        Navy could accelerate purchases after 2018 to 1 every 
        four years, rather than 1 every five years''.
            (2) In a report submitted to Congress on March 17, 
        2015, the Secretary of the Navy indicated the 
        Department of the Navy has a requirement of 11 aircraft 
        carriers.
    (b) Sense of Congress.--It is the sense of Congress that--
            (1) the plan of the Department of the Navy to 
        schedule the procurement of one aircraft carrier every 
        five years will reduce the overall aircraft carrier 
        inventory to 10 aircraft carriers, a level insufficient 
        to meet peacetime and war plan requirements; and
            (2) to accommodate the required aircraft carrier 
        force structure, the Department of the Navy should--
                    (A) begin to program construction for the 
                next aircraft carrier to be built after the 
                U.S.S. Enterprise (CVN-80) in fiscal year 2022; 
                and
                    (B) program the required advance 
                procurement activities to accommodate the 
                construction of such carrier.

SEC. 128. REPORT ON P-8 POSEIDON AIRCRAFT.

include, with respect to the P-8 Poseidon aircraft, the 
following:
            (1) A review of potential upgrades to the sensors 
        onboard the aircraft, including upgrades to 
        intelligence sensors, surveillance sensors, and 
        reconnaissance sensors such as those being fielded on 
        MQ-4 Global Hawk aircraft platforms.
            (2) An assessment of the ability of the Navy to use 
        long-range multispectral imaging systems onboard the 
        aircraft that are similar to such systems being used 
        onboard the MQ-4 Global Hawk aircraft.

SEC. 129. DESIGN AND CONSTRUCTION OF REPLACEMENT DOCK LANDING SHIP 
                    DESIGNATED LX(R) OR AMPHIBIOUS TRANSPORT DOCK 
                    DESIGNATED LPD-29.

    (a) In General.--The Secretary of the Navy may enter into a

entered into under subsection (a) shall provide that any 
obligation of the United States to make a payment under such 
contract for any fiscal year after fiscal year 2017 is subject 
to the availability of appropriations for that purpose for such 
fiscal year.

                include an option for the future production of 
                aircraft under the program if--
                            (i) the exercise of such option is 
                        at the discretion of the Secretary; and
                            (ii) such option is not exercised 
                        until the Secretary determines that 
                        there is a high likelihood that the 
                        program will meet the requirements of 
                        the combatant commands.

SEC. 241. SENSE OF CONGRESS ON DEVELOPMENT AND FIELDING OF FIFTH 
                    GENERATION AIRBORNE SYSTEMS.

    (a) Findings.--Congress makes the following findings:
            (1) The term ``fifth generation'', with respect to 
        airborne systems, means those airborne systems capable 
        of operating effectively in highly contested battle 
        spaces defined by the most capable currently fielded 
        threats, and those reasonably expected to be 
        operational in the foreseeable future.
            (2) Continued modernization of Department of 
        Defense airborne systems such as fighters, bombers, and 
        intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR) 
        aircraft with fifth generation capabilities is required 
        because--
                    (A) adversary integrated air defense 
                systems (IADS) have created regions where 
                fourth generation airborne systems may be 
                limited in their ability to effectively 
                operate;
                    (B) adversary aircraft, air-to-air 
                missiles, and airborne electronic attack or 
                electronic protection systems are advancing 
                beyond the capabilities of fourth generation 
                airborne systems; and
                    (C) fifth generation airborne systems 
                provide a wider variety of options for a given 
                warfighting challenge, preserve the 
                technological advantage of the United States 
                over near-peer threats, and serve as a force 
                multiplier by increasing situational awareness 
                and combat effectiveness of fourth generation 
                airborne systems.
    (b) Sense of Congress.--It is the sense of Congress that 
development and fielding of fifth generation airborne system 
systems should include the following:
            (1) Multispectral (radar, infrared, visual, 
        emissions) low observable (LO) design features, self-
        protection jamming, and other capabilities that 
        significantly delay or deny threat system detection, 
        tracking, and engagement.
            (2) Integrated avionics that autonomously fuse and 
        prioritize onboard multispectral sensors and offboard 
        information data to provide an accurate realtime 
        operating picture and data download for postmission 
        exploitation and analysis.
            (3) Resilient communications, navigation, and 
        identification techniques designed to effectively 
        counter adversary attempts to deny or confuse friendly 
        systems.
            (4) Robust and secure networks linking individual 
        platforms to create a common, accurate, and highly 
        integrated picture of the battle space for friendly 
        forces.
            (5) Advanced onboard diagnostics capable of 
        monitoring system health, accurately reporting system 
        faults, and increasing overall system performance and 
        reliability.
            (6) Integrated platform and subsystem designs to 
        maximize lethality and survivability while enabling 
        decision superiority.
            (7) Maximum consideration for the fielding of 
        unmanned platforms either employed in concert with 
        fifth generation manned platforms or as standalone 
        unmanned platforms, to increase warfighting 
        effectiveness and reduce risk to personnel during high 
        risk missions.
            (8) Advanced air-to-air, air-to-ground, and other 
        weapons able to leverage fifth generation capabilities.
            (9) Comprehensive and high-fidelity live, virtual, 
        and constructive training systems, updated range 
        infrastructure, and sufficient threat-representative 
        adversary training assets to maximize fifth generation 
        force proficiency, effectiveness, and readiness while 
        protecting sensitive capabilities.

SEC. 551. PURPOSE, SCOPE, AND DEFINITIONS.

    (a) Purpose.--The purpose of this subtitle is to establish 
the National Commission on Military, National, and Public 
Service to--
            (1) conduct a review of the military selective 
        service process (commonly referred to as ``the 
        draft''); and
            (2) consider methods to increase participation in 
        military, national, and public service in order to 
        address national security and other public service 
        needs of the Nation.
    (b) Scope of Review.--In order to provide the fullest 
understanding of the matters required under the review under 
subsection (a), the Commission shall consider--
            (1) the need for a military selective service 
        process, including the continuing need for a mechanism 
        to draft large numbers of replacement combat troops;
            (2) means by which to foster a greater attitude and 
        ethos of service among United States youth, including 
        an increased propensity for military service;
            (3) the feasibility and advisability of modifying 
        the military selective service process in order to 
        obtain for military, national, and public service 
        individuals with skills (such as medical, dental, and 
        nursing skills, language skills, cyber skills, and 
        science, technology, engineering, and mathematics 
        (STEM) skills) for which the Nation has a critical 
        need, without regard to age or sex; and
            (4) the feasibility and advisability of including 
        in the military selective service process, as so 
        modified, an eligibility or entitlement for the receipt 
        of one or more Federal benefits (such as educational 
        benefits, subsidized or secured student loans, grants 
        or hiring preferences) specified by the Commission for 
        purposes of the review.
    (c) Definitions.--In this subtitle:
            (1) The term ``military service'' means active 
        service (as that term is defined in subsection (d)(3) 
        of section 101 of title 10, United States Code) in one 
        of the uniformed services (as that term is defined in 
        subsection (a)(5) of such section).
            (2) The term ``national service'' means civilian 
        employment in Federal or State Government in a field in 
        which the Nation and the public have critical needs.
            (3) The term ``public service'' means civilian 
        employment in any non-governmental capacity, including 
        with private for-profit organizations and non-profit 
        organizations (including with appropriate faith-based 
        organizations), that pursues and enhances the common 
        good and meets the needs of communities, the States, or 
        the Nation in sectors related to security, health, care 
        for the elderly, and other areas considered appropriate 
        by the Commission for purposes of this subtitle.

SEC. 552. PRELIMINARY REPORT ON PURPOSE AND UTILITY OF REGISTRATION 
                    SYSTEM UNDER MILITARY SELECTIVE SERVICE ACT.

    (a) Report Required.--To assist the Commission in carrying 
out its duties under this subtitle, the Secretary of Defense 
shall--
            (1) submit, not later than July 1, 2017, to the 
        Committees on Armed Services of the Senate and the 
        House of Representatives and to the Commission a report 
        on the current and future need for a centralized 
        registration system under the Military Selective 
        Service Act (50 U.S.C. 3801 et seq.); and
            (2) provide a briefing on the results of the 
        report.
    (b) Elements of Report.--The report required by subsection 
(a) shall include the following:
            (1) A detailed analysis of the current benefits 
        derived, both directly and indirectly, from the 
        Military Selective Service System, including--
                    (A) the extent to which mandatory 
                registration benefits military recruiting;
                    (B) the extent to which a national 
                registration capability serves as a deterrent 
                to potential enemies of the United States; and
                    (C) the extent to which expanding 
                registration to include women would impact 
                these benefits.
            (2) An analysis of the functions currently 
        performed by the Selective Service System that would be 
        assumed by the Department of Defense in the absence of 
        a national registration capability.
            (3) An analysis of the systems, manpower, and 
        facilities that would be needed by the Department to 
        physically mobilize inductees in the absence of the 
        Selective Service System.
            (4) An analysis of the feasibility and utility of 
        eliminating the current focus on mass mobilization of 
        primarily combat troops in favor of a system that 
        focuses on mobilization of all military occupational 
        specialties, and the extent to which such a change 
        would impact the need for both male and female 
        inductees.
            (5) A detailed analysis of the Department's 
        personnel needs in the event of an emergency requiring 
        mass mobilization, including--
                    (A) a detailed timeline, along with the 
                factors considered in arriving at this 
                timeline, of when the Department would 
                require--
                            (i) the first inductees to report 
                        for service;
                            (ii) the first 100,000 inductees to 
                        report for service; and
                            (iii) the first medical personnel 
                        to report for service; and
                    (B) an analysis of any additional critical 
                skills that would be needed in the event of a 
                national emergency, and a timeline for when the 
                Department would require the first inductees to 
                report for service.
            (6) A list of the assumptions used by the 
        Department when conducting its analysis in preparing 
        the report.
    (c) Comptroller General Review.--Not later than December 1, 
2017, the Comptroller General of the United States shall submit 
to the Committees on Armed Services of the Senate and the House

        address national security and other public service 
        needs of the Nation.
    (b) Development of Commission Recommendations.--The 
Commission shall develop recommendations on the matters subject

            (1) In general.--Not later than three months after 
        the Commission establishment date, the President shall 
        establish and transmit to the Commission and Congress 
        principles for reform of the military selective service

        the Nation skills necessary to meet the military, 
        national, and public service requirements of the Nation 
        in connection with that process.
            (2) Elements.--The principles required under this 
        subsection shall address the following:
                    (A) Whether, in light of the current and 
                predicted global security environment and the 
                changing nature of warfare, there continues to 
                be a continuous or potential need for a 
                military selective service process designed to 
                produce large numbers of combat members of the 
                Armed Forces, and if so, whether such a system 
                should include mandatory registration by all 
                citizens and residents, regardless of sex.
                    (B) The need, and how best to meet the 
                need, of the Nation, the military, the Federal 
                civilian sector, and the private sector 
                (including the non-profit sector) for 
                individuals possessing critical skills and 
                abilities, and how best to employ individuals 
                possessing those skills and abilities for 
                military, national, or public service.

following:

        for survivors of members of the Armed Forces and 
        military retirees, and a comparison between the 
        benefits available under the Plan, on the one hand, and 
        benefits available to Government and private sector 
        employees, on the other hand, intended to provide 
        financial stability and resources for spouses and other 
        dependents when a primary family earner dies.

        the extent to which the Government could subsidize such

        products might meet the needs of survivors, especially 
        those on fixed incomes, to maintain financial 
        stability.
    (c) Report.--Not later than one year after the date of the 
enactment of this Act, the Secretary shall submit to the

United States Code, is amended by adding at the end the 
following paragraph:
    ``(3)(A) The Secretary of Defense shall develop and 
implement a comprehensive strategy to optimize management 
practices across the defense commissary system and the exchange

funding without reducing benefits to the patrons of those 
systems or the revenue generated by nonappropriated fund 
entities or instrumentalities of the Department of Defense for 
the morale, welfare, and recreation of members of the armed 
forces.
    ``(B) The Secretary shall ensure that savings generated due 
to such optimization practices are shared by the defense 
commissary system and the exchange system through contracts or 
agreements that appropriately reflect the participation of the 
systems in the development and implementation of such 
practices.
    ``(C) If the Secretary determines that the reduced reliance 
on appropriated funding pursuant to subparagraph (A) is 
insufficient to maintain the benefits to the patrons of the 
defense commissary system, and if the Secretary converts the 
defense commissary system to a nonappropriated fund entity or 
instrumentality pursuant to paragraph (1) of section 2484(j) of 
this title, the Secretary shall transfer appropriated funds 
pursuant to paragraph (2) of such section to ensure the 
maintenance of such benefits.
    ``(4) On not less than a quarterly basis, the Secretary 
shall provide to the congressional defense committees a 
briefing on the defense commissary system, including--
            ``(A) an assessment of the savings the system 
        provides patrons;
            ``(B) the status of implementing section 2484(i) of 
        this title;
            ``(C) the status of implementing section 2484(j) of 
        this title, including whether the system requires any 
        appropriated funds pursuant to paragraph (2) of such 
        section;
            ``(D) the status of carrying out a program for such 
        system to sell private label merchandise; and
            ``(E) any other matters the Secretary considers 
        appropriate.''.
    (b) Authorization to Supplement Appropriations Through 
Business Optimization.--Section 2483(c) of such title is 
amended by adding at the end the following new sentence: ``Such 
appropriated amounts may also be supplemented with additional 
funds derived from improved management practices implemented 
pursuant to sections 2481(c)(3) and 2487(c) of this title and 
the variable pricing program implemented pursuant to section 
2484(i) of this title.''.
    (c) Variable Pricing Pilot Program.--Section 2484 of such 
title is amended by adding at the end the following new 
subsections:
    ``(i) Variable Pricing Program.--(1) Notwithstanding 
subsection (e), and subject to subsection (k), the Secretary of 
Defense may establish a variable pricing program pursuant to 
which prices may be established in response to market 
conditions and customer demand, in accordance with the 
requirements of this subsection. Notwithstanding the amount of 
the uniform surcharge assessed in subsection (d), the Secretary 
may provide for an alternative surcharge of not more than five 
percent of sales proceeds under the variable pricing program to 
be made available for the purposes specified in subsection (h).
    ``(2) Subject to subsection (k), before establishing a 
variable pricing program under this subsection, the Secretary 
shall establish the following:
            ``(A) Specific, measurable benchmarks for success 
        in the provision of high quality grocery merchandise, 
        discount savings to patrons, and levels of customer 
        satisfaction while achieving savings for the Department 
        of Defense.
            ``(B) A baseline of overall savings to patrons 
        achieved by commissary stores prior to the initiation 
        of the variable pricing program, based on a comparison 
        of prices charged by those stores on a regional basis 
        with prices charged by relevant local competitors for a 
        representative market basket of goods.
    ``(3) The Secretary shall ensure that the defense 
commissary system implements the variable pricing program by 
conducting price comparisons using the methodology established 
for paragraph (2)(B) and adjusting pricing as necessary to 
ensure that pricing in the variable pricing program achieves 
overall savings to patrons that are consistent with the 
baseline savings established for the relevant region pursuant 
to such paragraph.
    ``(j) Conversion to Nonappropriated Fund Entity or 
Instrumentality.--(1) Subject to subsection (k), if the 
Secretary of Defense determines that the variable pricing 
program has met the benchmarks for success established pursuant 
to paragraph (2)(A) of subsection (i) and the savings 
requirements established pursuant to paragraph (3) of such 
subsection over a period of at least six months, the Secretary 
may convert the defense commissary system to a nonappropriated 
fund entity or instrumentality, with operating expenses 
financed in whole or in part by receipts from the sale of 
products and the sale of services. Upon such conversion, 
appropriated funds shall be transferred to the defense 
commissary system only in accordance with paragraph (2) or 
section 2491 of this title. The requirements of section 2483 of 
this title shall not apply to the defense commissary system 
operating as a nonappropriated fund entity or instrumentality.

                        repayment, or other special payment 
                        paid, determine whether waiver of 
                        recoupment is warranted; and

                of the evidence, that the member knew or

                determination, by a preponderance of the 
                evidence, that the member knew or reasonably 
                should have known that the member was 
                ineligible for the bonus pay, special pay, 
                student loan repayment, or other special

                        California and the National Guard 
                        Bureau have established policies and

                    ON LONG-TERM TEMPORARY DUTY ASSIGNMENTS.

    (a) Modification of Flat Rate.--
            (1) In general.--The Secretary of Defense shall 
        take such action as may be necessary to provide that, 
        to the extent that regulations implementing travel and 
        transportation authorities for military and civilian 
        personnel of the Department of Defense impose a flat 
        rate per diem for meals and incidental expenses for 
        authorized travelers on long-term temporary duty 
        assignments that is at a reduced rate compared to the 
        per diem rate otherwise applicable, the Secretary 
        concerned may waive the applicability of such reduced 
        rate and pay such travelers actual expenses up to the 
        full per diem rate for such travel in any case when the 
        Secretary concerned determines that the reduced flat 
        rate per diem for meals and incidental expenses is not 
        sufficient under the circumstances of the temporary 
        duty assignment.
            (2) Applicability.--The Secretary concerned may 
        exercise the authority provided pursuant to paragraph 
        (1) with respect to per diem payable for any day on or

concerned or an officer to whom the authority pursuant to 
subsection (a) is delegated pursuant to subsection (b) may 
waive any requirement for the submittal of receipts by 
travelers on long-term temporary duty assignments for the 
purpose of receiving the full per diem rate pursuant to 
subsection (a) if the Secretary concerned or officer, as 
described in subsection (b), personally certifies that 
requiring travelers to submit receipts for that purpose will 
negatively affect mission performance or create an undue 
administrative burden.

                a reduction or elimination of the copayment or 
                cost share for such medication or service would 
                encourage covered beneficiaries to use the 
                medication or service;

            (4) The term ``high-value medications and 
        services'' means prescription medications and clinical 
        services for the management of chronic conditions that 
        the Secretary determines would improve health outcomes

        equipment).
            (5) The term ``high-value provider'' means an

        specific prescription medications and clinical services 
        provided under the TRICARE program for which reduction 
        of copayments, cost shares, or both, would improve the 
        management of specific chronic conditions because of 
        the high value and clinical effectiveness of such 
        medications and services for such chronic conditions.

        care services to covered beneficiaries to encourage 
        health care providers under the TRICARE program 
        (including physicians, hospitals, and other persons and 
        facilities involved in providing such health care 
        services) to improve the following:
                    (A) The quality of health care provided to 
                covered beneficiaries under the TRICARE 
                program.
                    (B) The experience of covered beneficiaries

                        providers under the TRICARE program to 
                        improved performance with respect to 
                        quality, cost, and reducing the 
                        provision of inappropriate care;
                            (ii) consider the characteristics 
                        of the population of covered 
                        beneficiaries affected by the value-
                        based incentive program;
                            (iii) consider how the value-based 
                        incentive program would affect the 
                        receipt of health care under the 
                        TRICARE program by such covered 
                        beneficiaries;
                            (iv) establish or maintain an 
                        assurance that such covered 
                        beneficiaries will have timely access 
                        to health care during the operation of 
                        the value-based incentive program;
                            (v) ensure that such covered 
                        beneficiaries do not incur any 
                        additional costs by reason of the 
                        value-based incentive program; and
                            (vi) consider such other factors as 
                        the Secretary considers appropriate.
                    (B) Scope and metrics.--With respect to a 
                value-based incentive program developed and 
                implemented under paragraph (1), the Secretary 
                shall ensure that--
                            (i) the size, scope, and duration 
                        of the value-based incentive program is 
                        reasonable in relation to the purpose 
                        of the value-based incentive program; 
                        and
                            (ii) the value-based incentive 
                        program relies on the core quality 
                        performance metrics adopted pursuant to 
                        section 728.
            (3) Use of existing models.--In developing a value-
        based incentive program under paragraph (1), the 
        Secretary may adapt a value-based incentive program 
        conducted by a TRICARE managed care support contractor, 
        the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services, or any 
        other Federal Government, State government, or 
        commercial health care program.
    (b) Transfer of Contracting Responsibility.--With respect 
to the acquisition of any managed care support contracts under

        Secretary of Defense shall develop and implement a 
        strategy to ensure that managed care support contracts 
        under the TRICARE program entered into with private 
        sector entities, other than overseas medical support 
        contracts--
                    (A) improve access to health care for 
                covered beneficiaries;
                    (B) improve health outcomes for covered 
                beneficiaries;

                strategy.
            (3) Local, regional, and national health plans.--In 
        developing and implementing the strategy required by 
        paragraph (1), the Secretary shall ensure that local,

        support contracts under the TRICARE program.
            (4) Continuous innovation.--The strategy required 
        by paragraph (1) shall include incentives for the 
        incorporation of innovative ideas and solutions into 
        managed care support contracts under the TRICARE 
        program through the use of teaming agreements, 
        subcontracts, and other contracting mechanisms that can 
        be used to develop and continuously refresh high-
        performing networks of health care providers at the 
        national, regional, and local level.
            (5) Elements of strategy.--The strategy required by

                medical treatment facilities and health care 
                providers in the private sector that, when 
                appropriate, effectively coordinates and 
                integrates health care across the continuum of 
                care.
                    (C) With respect to telehealth services--

                        such services to provide real-time 
                        interactive communications between 
                        patients and health care providers and 
                        remote patient monitoring; and

SEC. 813. USE OF LOWEST PRICE TECHNICALLY ACCEPTABLE SOURCE SELECTION 
                    PROCESS.

    (a) Statement of Policy.--It shall be the policy of the 
Department of Defense to avoid using lowest price technically 
acceptable source selection criteria in circumstances that 
would deny the Department the benefits of cost and technical 
tradeoffs in the source selection process.
    (b) Revision of Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation 
Supplement.--Not later than 120 days after the date of the 
enactment of this Act, the Secretary of Defense shall revise 
the Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement to 
require that, for solicitations issued on or after the date 
that is 120 days after the date of the enactment of this Act, 
lowest price technically acceptable source selection criteria 
are used only in situations in which--
            (1) the Department of Defense is able to 
        comprehensively and clearly describe the minimum 
        requirements expressed in terms of performance 
        objectives, measures, and standards that will be used 
        to determine acceptability of offers;
            (2) the Department of Defense would realize no, or 
        minimal, value from a contract proposal exceeding the 
        minimum technical or performance requirements set forth 
        in the request for proposal;
            (3) the proposed technical approaches will require 
        no, or minimal, subjective judgment by the source 
        selection authority as to the desirability of one 
        offeror's proposal versus a competing proposal;
            (4) the source selection authority has a high 
        degree of confidence that a review of technical 
        proposals of offerors other than the lowest bidder 
        would not result in the identification of factors that 
        could provide value or benefit to the Department;
            (5) the contracting officer has included a 
        justification for the use of a lowest price technically 
        acceptable evaluation methodology in the contract file; 
        and
            (6) the Department of Defense has determined that 
        the lowest price reflects full life-cycle costs, 
        including for operations and support.
    (c) Avoidance of Use of Lowest Price Technically Acceptable 
Source Selection Criteria in Certain Procurements.--To the 
maximum extent practicable, the use of lowest price technically 
acceptable source selection criteria shall be avoided in the 
case of a procurement that is predominately for the acquisition 
of--
            (1) information technology services, cybersecurity 
        services, systems engineering and technical assistance 
        services, advanced electronic testing, audit or audit 
        readiness services, or other knowledge-based 
        professional services;

            (3) knowledge-based training or logistics services 
        in contingency operations or other operations outside 
        the United States, including in Afghanistan or Iraq.
    (d) Reporting.--Not later than December 1, 2017, and 
annually thereafter for three years, the Comptroller General of 
the United States shall submit to the congressional defense 
committees a report on the number of instances in which lowest 
price technically acceptable source selection criteria is used 
for a contract exceeding $10,000,000, including an explanation 
of how the situations listed in subsection (b) were considered 
in making a determination to use lowest price technically 
acceptable source selection criteria.

        Defense of reverse auctions or lowest price technically 
        acceptable contracting methods for the procurement of

        or failure of the item could result in combat 
        casualties; and

        value contracting methods for the procurement of such 
        equipment.

SEC. 837. CLOSEOUT OF OLD DEPARTMENT OF THE NAVY CONTRACTS.

    (a) Authority.--The Secretary of the Navy may close out 
contracts described in subsection (b) through the issuance of 
one or more modifications to such contracts without completing 
further reconciliation audits or corrective actions other than 
those described in this section. To accomplish closeout of such 
contracts--
            (1) remaining contract balances may be offset with 
        balances in other contract line items within a contract 
        regardless of the year or type of appropriation

        regardless of whether the appropriation for such 
        contract line item has closed; and
            (2) remaining contract balances may be offset with 
        balances on other contracts regardless of the year or 
        type of appropriation obligated to fund each contract 
        and regardless of whether the appropriation has closed.
    (b) Contracts Covered.--The contracts covered by this 
section are a group of contracts that are with one contractor 
and identified by the Secretary, each one of which is a 
contract--
            (1) to design, construct, repair, or support the 
        construction or repair of Navy submarines that--
                    (A) was entered into between fiscal years

            (2) with respect to which the Secretary of the Navy 
        has established the total final contract value; and
            (3) with respect to which the Secretary of the Navy 
        has determined that the final allowable cost may have a 
        negative or positive unliquidated obligation balance 
        for which it would be difficult to determine the year 
        or type of appropriation because--
                    (A) the records for the contract have been 
                destroyed or lost; or
                    (B) the records for the contract are

                collaboration with the certifying official, has 
                determined that a discrepancy is of such a 
                minimal value that the time and effort required 
                to determine the cause of an out-of-balance 
                condition is disproportionate to the amount of 
                the discrepancy.
    (c) Closeout Terms.--The contracts described in subsection 
(b) may be closed out--
            (1) upon receipt of $581,803 from the contractor to 
        be deposited into the Treasury as miscellaneous 
        receipts;
            (2) without seeking further amounts from the 
        contractor; and

        amounts that may be due under any such contracts.
    (d) Waiver Authority.--
            (1) In general.--The Secretary of the Navy is 
        authorized to waive any provision of acquisition law or 
        regulation to carry out the authority under subsection 
        (a).
            (2) Notification requirement.--The Secretary of the 
        Navy shall notify the congressional defense committees 
        not later than 10 days after exercising the authority 
        under paragraph (1). The notice shall include an 
        identification of each provision of law or regulation 
        waived.
    (e) Adjustment and Closure of Records.--After closeout of 
any contract described in subsection (b) using the authority 
under this section, the payment or accounting offices concerned 
may adjust and close any open finance and accounting records 
relating to the contract.
    (f) No Liability.--No liability shall attach to any 
accounting, certifying, or payment official or contracting 
officer for any adjustments or closeout made pursuant to the 
authority under this section.

        of authorizations made available to the Department of 
        Defense in this division for fiscal year 2017 between 
        any such authorizations for that fiscal year (or any 
        subdivisions thereof). Amounts of authorizations so 
        transferred shall be merged with and be available for 
        the same purposes as the authorization to which 
        transferred.
            (2) Limitation.--Except as provided in paragraph 
        (3), the total amount of authorizations that the 
        Secretary may transfer under the authority of this 
        section may not exceed $4,500,000,000.
            (3) Exception for transfers between military 
        personnel authorizations.--A transfer of funds between 
        military personnel authorizations under title IV shall 
        not be counted toward the dollar limitation in 
        paragraph (2).
    (b) Limitations.--The authority provided by subsection (a) 
to transfer authorizations--
            (1) may only be used to provide authority for items 
        that have a higher priority than the items from which 
        authority is transferred; and
            (2) may not be used to provide authority for an 
        item that has been denied authorization by Congress.
    (c) Effect on Authorization Amounts.--A transfer made from 
one account to another under the authority of this section 
shall be deemed to increase the amount authorized for the 
account to which the amount is transferred by an amount equal 
to the amount transferred.
    (d) Notice to Congress.--The Secretary shall promptly 
notify Congress of each transfer made under subsection (a).

SEC. 1002. REPORT ON AUDITABLE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS.

    Not later than 90 days after the date of the enactment of 
this Act, the Secretary of Defense shall submit to the 
congressional defense committees a report ranking all military 
departments and Defense Agencies in order of how advanced they 
are in achieving auditable financial statements as required by 
law. The report should not include information otherwise 
available in other reports to Congress.

SEC. 1003. INCREASED USE OF COMMERCIAL DATA INTEGRATION AND ANALYSIS

and evaluation resources as appropriate in support of this 
deployment.

on the capabilities procured pursuant to subsection (a), 
including the results of using such capabilities in connection 
with auditing a financial statement of the Department of 
Defense.

SEC. 1004. SENSE OF CONGRESS ON SEQUESTRATION.

    It is the sense of the Congress that--
            (1) the fiscal challenges of the Federal Government 
        are a top priority for Congress, and sequestration--
        non-strategic, across-the-board budget cuts--remains an 
        unreasonable and inadequate budgeting tool to address 
        the deficits and debt of the Federal Government;
            (2) budget caps imposed by the Budget Control Act 
        of 2011 (Public Law 112-25) impose unacceptable 
        limitations on the budget and increase risk to the 
        national security of the United States; and
            (3) the budget caps imposed by the Budget Control 
        Act of 2011 must be modified or eliminated through a 
        bipartisan legislative agreement.

SEC. 1005. REQUIREMENT TO TRANSFER FUNDS FROM DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE

the Department of Defense Acquisition Workforce Development 
Fund from amounts credited to the Fund pursuant to section

Secretary of the Treasury for deposit in the general fund of 
the Treasury.
    (b) Additional Authority.--The transfer authority provided 
by this section is in addition to any other transfer authority 
contained in this Act.

SEC. 1088. SENSE OF CONGRESS REGARDING CONNECTICUT'S SUBMARINE CENTURY.

    (a) Findings.--Congress makes the following findings:
            (1) On March 2, 1867, Congress enacted a naval 
        appropriations Act that authorized the Secretary of the 
        Navy to ``receive and accept a deed of gift, when 
        offered by the State of Connecticut, of a tract of land 
        with not less than one mile of shore front on the 
        Thames River near New London, Connecticut, to be held 
        by the United States for naval purposes''.
            (2) The people of Connecticut and the towns and 
        cities in the southeastern region of Connecticut 
        subsequently gifted land to establish a military 
        installation to fulfil the Nation's need for a naval 
        facility on the Atlantic coast.
            (3) On April 11, 1868, the Navy accepted the deed 
        of gift of land from Connecticut to establish a naval 
        yard and storage depot along the eastern shore of the 
        Thames River in Groton, Connecticut.
            (4) Between 1868 and 1912, the New London Navy Yard 
        supported a diverse range of missions, including 
        berthing inactive Civil War era ironclad warships and 
        serving as a coaling station for refueling naval ships 
        traveling in New England waters.
            (5) Congress rejected the Navy's proposal to close 
        New London Navy Yard in 1912, following an impassioned 
        effort by Congressman Edwin W. Higgins, who stated that 
        ``this action proposed is not only unjust but 
        unreasonable and unsound as a military proposition''.
            (6) The outbreak of World War I and the enemy use 
        of submarines to sink allied military and civilian 
        ships in the Atlantic sparked a new focus on developing 
        submarine capabilities in the United States.
            (7) October 18, 1915, marked the arrival at the New 
        London Navy Yard of the submarines G-1, G-2, and G-4 
        under the care of the tender USS Ozark and the arrival 
        of submarines E-1, D-1, and D-3 under the care of the 
        tender USS Tonopah. November 1, 1915, marked the 
        arrival of the first ship built as a submarine tender, 
        the USS Fulton (AS-1).
            (8) On June 21, 1916, Commander Yeates Stirling 
        assumed the command of the newly designated Naval 
        Submarine Base New London, the New London Submarine 
        Flotilla, and the Submarine School.
            (9) In the 100 years since the arrival of the first 
        submarines to the base, Naval Submarine Base New London 
        has grown to occupy more than 680 acres along the east 
        side of the Thames River, with more than 160 major 
        facilities, 15 nuclear submarines, and more than 70 
        tenant commands and activities, including the Submarine 
        Learning Center, Naval Submarine School, the Naval 
        Submarine Medical Research Laboratory, the Naval 
        Undersea Medical Institute, and the newly established 
        Undersea Warfighting Development Center.
            (10) In addition to being the site of the first 
        submarine base in the United States, Connecticut was 
        home to the foremost submarine manufacturers of the 
        time, the Lake Torpedo Boat Company in Bridgeport and 
        the Electric Boat Company in Groton, which later became 
        General Dynamics Electric Boat.
            (11) General Dynamics Electric Boat, its talented 
        workforce, and its Connecticut-based and nationwide 
        network of suppliers have delivered more than 200 
        submarines from its current location in Groton, 
        Connecticut, including the first nuclear-powered 
        submarine, the USS Nautilus (SSN 571), and nearly half 
        of the nuclear submarines ever built by the United 
        States.
            (12) The Submarine Force Museum, located adjacent 
        to Naval Submarine Base New London in Groton, 
        Connecticut, is the only submarine museum operated by 
        the United States Navy and today serves as the primary 
        repository for artifacts, documents, and photographs 
        relating to the bold and courageous history of the 
        Submarine Force and highlights as its core exhibit the 
        Historic Ship Nautilus (SSN 571) following her 
        retirement from service.
            (13) Reflecting the close ties between Connecticut 
        and the Navy that began with the gift of land that 
        established the base, the State of Connecticut has set 
        aside $40,000,000 in funding for critical 
        infrastructure investments to support the mission of 
        the base, including construction of a new dive locker 
        building, expansion of the Submarine Learning Center, 
        and modernization of energy infrastructure.
            (14) On September 29, 2015, Connecticut Governor 
        Dannel Malloy designated October 2015 through October 
        2016 as Connecticut's Submarine Century, a year-long 
        observance that celebrates 100 years of submarine 
        activity in Connecticut, including the Town of Groton's 
        distinction as the Submarine Capital of the World, to 
        coincide with the centennial anniversary of the 
        establishment of Naval Submarine Base New London and 
        the Naval Submarine School.
            (15) Whereas Naval Submarine Base New London still 
        proudly proclaims its motto of ``The First and 
        Finest''.
            (16) Congressman Higgins' statement before Congress 
        in 1912 that ``Connecticut stands ready, as she always 
        has, to bear her part of the burdens of the national 
        defense'' remains true today.
    (b) Sense of Congress.--Congress--
            (1) commends the longstanding dedication and 
        contribution to the Navy and submarine force by the 
        people of Connecticut, both through the initial deed of 
        gift that established what would become Naval Submarine 
        Base New London and through their ongoing commitment to 
        support the mission of the base and the Navy personnel 
        assigned to it;
            (2) honors the submariners who have trained and 
        served at Naval Submarine Base New London throughout 
        its history in support of the Nation's security and 
        undersea superiority;
            (3) recognizes the contribution of the industry and 
        workforce of Connecticut in designing, building, and 
        sustaining the Navy's submarine fleet; and
            (4) encourages the recognition of Connecticut's 
        Submarine Century by Congress, the Navy, and the 
        American people by honoring the contribution of the 
        people of Connecticut to the defense of the United 
        States and the important role of the submarine force in 
        safeguarding the security of the United States for more 
        than a century.

                    MISHAP IN MARANA, ARIZONA, ON APRIL 8, 2000.

    It is the sense of Congress that--
            (1) in the report accompanying H.R. 1735 of the 
        114th Congress (House Report 114-102), the Committee on

        encouraged the Secretary of Defense to ``publicly 
        clarify the causes of the MV-22 mishap at Marana 
        Northwest Regional Airport, Arizona, in a way 
        consistent with the results of all investigations as 
        soon as possible'';
            (2) the Deputy Secretary of Defense Robert O. Work 
        did an excellent job reviewing the investigations of 
        such mishap and concluded that there was a 
        misrepresentation of facts by the media which 
        incorrectly identified pilot error as the cause of the 
        mishap which the Deputy Secretary publicly made known 
        in March 2016; and
            (3) Congress is grateful for the successful 
        conclusion to this tragic situation.

            (1) support day-to-day air refueling operations, 
        combatant commander operations plans, and flexibility

                    (A) take full advantage of existing 
                infrastructure to provide--
                            (i) runway, hangars, and aircrew 
                        and maintenance operations; and
                            (ii) sufficient fuels receipt, 
                        storage, and distribution for 5-day 
                        peacetime operating stock; and

            (1) agency use of administrative leave, and leave 
        that is referred to incorrectly as administrative leave 
        in agency recording practices, has exceeded reasonable 
        amounts--
                    (A) in contravention of--
                            (i) established precedent of the 
                        Comptroller General of the United 
                        States; and

                        Office of Personnel Management; and
                    (B) resulting in significant cost to the 
                Federal Government;
            (2) administrative leave should be used sparingly;
            (3) prior to the use of paid leave to address 
        personnel issues, an agency should consider other 
        actions, including--
                    (A) temporary reassignment; and
                    (B) transfer;
            (4) an agency should prioritize and expeditiously 
        conclude an investigation in which an employee is 
        placed in administrative leave so that, not later than 
        the conclusion of the leave period--
                    (A) the employee is returned to duty 
                status; or
                    (B) an appropriate personnel action is 
                taken with respect to the employee;
            (5) data show that there are too many examples of 
        employees placed in administrative leave for 6 months 
        or longer, leaving the employees without any available 
        recourse to--
                    (A) return to duty status; or
                    (B) challenge the decision of the agency;
            (6) an agency should ensure accurate and consistent 
        recording of the use of administrative leave so that 
        administrative leave can be managed and overseen 
        effectively; and
            (7) other forms of excused absence authorized by 
        law should be recorded separately from administrative 
        leave, as defined by the amendments made by this 
        section.
    (c) Administrative Leave.--

                posture.
            (3) Sunset.--The requirements of this subsection 
        shall terminate 5 years after the date of the enactment 
        of this Act.
    (d) Additional Limitation.--
            (1) In general.--Not more than 65 percent of the 
        funds authorized to be appropriated or otherwise made 
        available by this Act or any other Act for fiscal year 
        2017 may be used to carry out any activities to 
        implement the Open Skies Treaty until the requirements 
        described in paragraph (2) are met.
            (2) Requirements described.--The requirements 
        described in this paragraph are the following:
                    (A) The Director of National Intelligence 
                and the Director of the National Geospatial-
                Intelligence Agency jointly submit to the 
                appropriate congressional committees a report 
                on the following:
                            (i) Whether it is possible, 
                        consistent with United States national 
                        security interests, to provide enhanced 
                        access to United States commercial 
                        imagery or other United States 
                        capabilities, consistent with the 
                        protection of sources and methods and 
                        United States national security, to 
                        covered state parties that is 
                        qualitatively similar to that derived 
                        by observation flights over the 
                        territory of the United States or over 
                        the territory of a covered state party 
                        under the Open Skies Treaty, on a more 
                        timely basis.
                            (ii) What the cost would be to 
                        provide enhanced access to such 
                        commercial imagery or other 
                        capabilities as compared to the current 
                        imagery sharing through the Treaty.
                            (iii) Whether any new agreements 
                        would be needed to provide enhanced 
                        access to such commercial imagery or 
                        other capabilities and what would be 
                        required to obtain such agreements.
                            (iv) Whether transitioning to such 
                        commercial imagery or other 
                        capabilities from the current imagery 
                        sharing through the Treaty would reduce 
                        opportunities by the Russian Federation 
                        to exceed imagery limits and reduce 
                        utility for Russian intelligence 
                        collection against the United States or 
                        covered state parties.
                            (v) How such commercial imagery or 
                        other capabilities would compare to the 
                        current imagery sharing through the 
                        Treaty.
                    (B) The Secretary of State, in consultation 
                with the Director of the National Geospatial 
                Intelligence Agency and the Secretary of 
                Defense, submits to the appropriate 
                congressional committees a report that--
                            (i) details the costs for 
                        implementation of the Open Skies 
                        Treaty, including--
                                    (I) mitigation costs 
                                relating to national security; 
                                and
                                    (II) aircraft, sensors, and 
                                related overhead and 
                                implementation costs for 
                                covered state parties; and
                            (ii) describes the impact on 
                        contributions and participation by 
                        covered state parties and relationships 
                        among covered state parties in the 
                        context of the Open Skies Treaty, the 
                        North Atlantic Treaty Organization, and

SEC. 1616. ORGANIZATION AND MANAGEMENT OF NATIONAL SECURITY SPACE 
                    ACTIVITIES OF THE DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE.

    (a) Findings.--Congress finds the following:
            (1) National security space capabilities are a 
        vital element of the national defense of the United 
        States.
            (2) The advantages of the United States in national 
        security space are now threatened to an unprecedented 
        degree by growing and serious counterspace capabilities 
        of potential foreign adversaries, and the space 
        advantages of the United States must be protected.
            (3) The Department of Defense has recognized the 
        threat and has taken initial steps necessary to defend 
        space, however the organization and management may not 
        be strategically postured to fully address this changed 
        domain of operations over the long term.
            (4) The defense of space is currently a priority 
        for the leaders of the Department, however the space 
        mission is managed within competing priorities of each 
        of the Armed Forces.
            (5) Space elements provide critical capabilities to 
        all of the Armed Forces in the joint fight, however the 
        disparate activities throughout the Department have no 
        single leader that is empowered to make decisions 
        affecting the space forces of the Department.
    (b) Sense of Congress.--It is the sense of Congress that, 
to modernize and fully address the growing threat to the 
national security space advantage of the United States, the 
Secretary of Defense must evaluate the range of options and 
take further action to strengthen the leadership, management, 
and organization of the national security space activities of 
the Department of Defense, including with respect to--
            (1) unifying, integrating, and de-conflicting 
        activities to provide for stronger prioritization, 
        accountability, coherency, focus, strategy, and 
        integration of the joint space program of the 
        Department;
            (2) streamlining decision-making, limiting 
        unnecessary bureaucracy, and empowering the appropriate 
        level of authority, while enabling effective oversight;
            (3) maintaining the involvement of each of the 
        Armed Forces and adapting the culture and improving the 
        capabilities of the workforce to ensure the workforce 
        has the appropriate training, experience, and tools to 
        accomplish the mission; and
            (4) reviewing authorities and preparing for a 
        conflict that could extend to space.
    (c) Recommendations.--Not later than 180 days after the 
date of the enactment of this Act, the Secretary of Defense and 
the Director of the Office of Management and Budget shall each 
separately submit to the appropriate congressional committees 
recommendations to--
            (1) in accordance with subsection (b), strengthen 
        the leadership, management, and organization of the 
        Department of Defense with respect to the national 
        security space activities of the Department; and
            (2) address the findings covered in the report of 
        the Comptroller General of the United States numbered 
        GAO-16-592R regarding space acquisition and oversight 
        of the Department of Defense.
    (d) Appropriate Congressional Committees.--In this section, 
the term ``appropriate congressional committees'' means the 
following:
            (1) The congressional defense committees.
            (2) The Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence 
        of the House of Representatives and the Select 
        Committee on Intelligence of the Senate.

                    (B) deterring the implementation of such a 
                doctrine has been integrated into the war plans 
                of the United States.
            (6) The status of the nuclear weapons, nuclear 
        weapons infrastructure, and nuclear command and control 
        modernization activities of the United States, and the 
        impact such status has on plans to--
                    (A) implement the reduction of the nuclear 
                weapons of the United States; or

SEC. 1671. SENSE OF CONGRESS ON NUCLEAR DETERRENCE.

    It is the sense of Congress that--
            (1) the nuclear forces of the United States 
        continue to play a fundamental role in deterring 
        aggression against the interests of the United States 
        and the allies of the United States in an increasingly 
        dangerous world in which foreign adversaries, including 
        the Russian Federation, are making explicit nuclear 
        threats against the United States and such allies;
            (2) strong United States nuclear forces assure the 
        allies of the United States that the extended 
        deterrence guarantees of the United States are credible 
        and that the resolve of the United States remains 
        strong even in the face of nuclear provocations, 
        including nuclear coercion and blackmail;
            (3) the prevention of war through effective 
        deterrence requires survivable and flexible nuclear 
        forces that are well exercised and ready to respond to 
        nuclear escalation if necessary;
            (4) possessing a range of capabilities and options 
        to counter nuclear threats assures the allies of the 
        United States and enhances the credibility of United 
        States nuclear deterrence by reinforcing the resolve of 
        the United States in the minds of such allies and 
        potential adversaries;
            (5) the declared policy of the United States with 
        respect to the use of nuclear weapons must be 
        coordinated and communicate clearly that the use of 
        nuclear weapons against the United States or its vital 
        interests would ultimately fail and subject the 
        aggressor to incalculable consequences;
            (6) in support of a strong and credible nuclear 
        deterrent, the United States must--
                    (A) maintain a nuclear force with a 
                diverse, flexible range of nuclear yield and 
                delivery modes that are ready, capable, and 
                credible;
                    (B) afford the highest priority to the 
                modernization of the nuclear triad, dual-
                capable aircraft, and related command and 
                control elements; and
                    (C) ensure the broadest participation of 
                allies of the United States in nuclear defense 
                planning, training, and exercises to 
                demonstrate the commitment of the United States 
                and such allies and their solidarity against 
                nuclear threats and coercion; and
            (7) with respect to the North Atlantic Treaty 
        Organization (NATO)--
                    (A) NATO has made it clear at the NATO 
                summit in Warsaw, Poland, in July 2018, that--
                            (i) ``the fundamental purpose of 
                        NATO's nuclear capability is to 
                        preserve peace, prevent coercion, and 
                        deter aggression''; and
                            (ii) ``Nuclear weapons are unique. 
                        Any employment of nuclear weapons 
                        against NATO would fundamentally alter 
                        the nature of a conflict. The 
                        circumstances in which NATO might have 
                        to use nuclear weapons are extremely 
                        remote. If the fundamental security of 
                        any of its members were to be 
                        threatened however, NATO has the 
                        capabilities and resolve to impose 
                        costs on an adversary that would be 
                        unacceptable and far outweigh the 
                        benefits that an adversary could hope 
                        to achieve.''; and
                    (B) accordingly, effective deterrence 
                requires that NATO conduct realistic nuclear 
                planning and exercises, and modernize the full 
                suite of dual-capable aircraft and associated 
                command and control networks and facilities.

SEC. 1672. SENSE OF CONGRESS ON IMPORTANCE OF INDEPENDENT NUCLEAR 
                    DETERRENT OF UNITED KINGDOM.

    It is the sense of Congress that--
            (1) the United States believes that the independent 
        nuclear deterrent and decision-making of the United 
        Kingdom provides a crucial contribution to 
        international stability, the North Atlantic Treaty 
        Organization alliance, and the national security of the 
        United States;
            (2) nuclear deterrence is and will continue to be 
        the highest priority mission of the Department of 
        Defense and the United States benefits when the closest 
        ally of the United States clearly and unequivocally 
        sets similar priorities;
            (3) the United States sees the nuclear deterrent of 
        the United Kingdom as central to trans-Atlantic 
        security and to the commitment of the United Kingdom to 
        NATO to spend two percent of gross domestic product on 
        defense;
            (4) the commitment of the United Kingdom to 
        maintain a continuous at-sea deterrence posture today 
        and in the future complements the deterrent 
        capabilities of the United States and provides a 
        credible ``second center of decision making'' which 
        ensures potential attackers cannot discount the 
        solidarity of the mutual relationship of the United 
        States and the United Kingdom;
            (5) the United States Navy must execute the Ohio-
        class replacement submarine program on time and within 
        budget, seeking efficiencies and cost savings wherever 
        possible, to ensure that the program delivers a Common 
        Missile Compartment, the Trident II (D5) Strategic 
        Weapon System, and associated equipment and production 
        capabilities, that support the successful development 
        and deployment of the Dreadnought submarines of the 
        United Kingdom; and
            (6) the close technical collaboration, especially 
        expert mutual scientific peer review, provides valuable 
        resilience and cost effectiveness to the respective 
        deterrence programs of the United States and the United 
        Kingdom.

                    PROCUREMENTS.

    Section 15(a) of the Small Business Act (15 U.S.C. 644(a)) 
is amended to read as follows:
    ``(a) Small Business Procurements.--
            ``(1) In general.--For purposes of this Act, small 
        business concerns shall receive any award or contract 
        if such award or contract is, in the determination of 
        the Administrator and the contracting agency, in the 
        interest of--

                productive capacity of the United States;

                category (as defined under paragraph (2)) are 
                awarded to small business concerns.
            ``(2) Industry category defined.--
                    ``(A) In general.--In this subsection, the 
                term `industry category' means a discrete group 
                of similar goods and services, as determined by 
                the Administrator in accordance with the North 
                American Industry Classification System codes 
                used to establish small business size 
                standards, except that the Administrator shall 
                limit an industry category to a greater extent 
                than provided under the North American Industry 
                Classification System codes if the 
                Administrator receives evidence indicating that 
                further segmentation of the industry category

                        mobilization costs, or similar economic

                services currently being supplied or performed 
                by a small business concern and, as determined 
                by the Administrator--

                representative of the contracting agency (as 
                described in subsection (l)) along with a

                        cannot be divided into reasonably small

                procurement will make the participation of 
                small business concerns as prime contractors 
                unlikely, the procurement center

        With respect to a contract for the sale of Government 
        property, small business concerns shall receive any 
        such contract if, in the determination of the 
        Administrator and the disposal agency, the award of 
        such contract is in the interest of assuring that a 
        fair proportion of the total sales of Government 
        property be made to small business concerns.
            ``(6) Sale of electrical power or other property.--

                    ACTIVITY WASTE AT HANFORD NUCLEAR RESERVATION.

    (a) In General.--Not later than 60 days after the date of 
the enactment of this Act, the Secretary of Energy shall enter 
into an arrangement with a federally funded research and 
development center to conduct an analysis of approaches for 
treating the portion of low-activity waste at the Hanford 
Nuclear Reservation, Richland, Washington, that, as of such 
date of enactment, is intended for supplemental treatment.
    (b) Elements.--The analysis required by subsection (a) 
shall include the following:
            (1) An analysis of, at a minimum, the following 
        approaches for treating the low-activity waste 
        described in subsection (a):
                    (A) Further processing of the low-activity 
                waste to remove long-lived radioactive 
                constituents, particularly technetium-99 and 
                iodine-129, for immobilization with high-level 
                waste.
                    (B) Vitrification, grouting, and steam 
                reforming, and other alternative approaches 
                identified by the Department of Energy for 
                immobilizing the low-activity waste.
            (2) An analysis of the following:
                    (A) The risks of the approaches described 
                in paragraph (1) relating to treatment and 
                final disposition.
                    (B) The benefits and costs of such 
                approaches.
                    (C) Anticipated schedules for such 
                approaches, including the time needed to 
                complete necessary construction and to begin 
                treatment operations.
                    (D) The compliance of such approaches with 
                applicable technical standards associated with 
                and contained in regulations prescribed 
                pursuant to the Comprehensive Environmental 
                Response, Compensation, and Liability Act of 
                1980 (42 U.S.C. 9601 et seq.), the Solid Waste

Code (article 57 of the Uniform Code of Military Justice), is 
amended to read as follows:

``Sec. 857. Art. 57. Effective date of sentences

    ``(a) Execution of Sentences.--A court-martial sentence 
shall be executed and take effect as follows:
            ``(1) Forfeiture and reduction.--A forfeiture of 
        pay or allowances shall be applicable to pay and 
        allowances accruing on and after the date on which the 
        sentence takes effect. Any forfeiture of pay or 
        allowances or reduction in grade that is included in a 
        sentence of a court-martial takes effect on the earlier 
        of--
                    ``(A) the date that is 14 days after the 
                date on which the sentence is adjudged; or
                    ``(B) in the case of a summary court-
                martial, the date on which the sentence is 
                approved by the convening authority.
            ``(2) Confinement.--Any period of confinement 
        included in a sentence of a court-martial begins to run 
        from the date the sentence is adjudged by the court-
        martial, but periods during which the sentence to 
        confinement is suspended or deferred shall be excluded 
        in computing the service of the term of confinement.
            ``(3) Approval of sentence of death.--If the 
        sentence of the court-martial extends to death, that 
        part of the sentence providing for death may not be 
        executed until approved by the President. In such a 
        case, the President may commute, remit, or suspend the 
        sentence, or any part thereof, as the President sees 
        fit. That part of the sentence providing for death may 
        not be suspended.
            ``(4) Approval of dismissal.--If in the case of a 
        commissioned officer, cadet, or midshipman, the 
        sentence of a court-martial extends to dismissal, that 
        part of the sentence providing for dismissal may not be 
        executed until approved by the Secretary concerned or 
        such Under Secretary or Assistant Secretary as may be 
        designated by the Secretary concerned. In such a case, 
        the Secretary, Under Secretary, or Assistant Secretary, 
        as the case may be, may commute, remit, or suspend the 
        sentence, or any part of the sentence, as the Secretary 
        sees fit. In time of war or national emergency he may 
        commute a sentence of dismissal to reduction to any 
        enlisted grade. A person so reduced may be required to 
        serve for the duration of the war or emergency and six 
        months thereafter.
            ``(5) Completion of appellate review.--If a 
        sentence extends to death, dismissal, or a dishonorable 
        or bad-conduct discharge, that part of the sentence 
        extending to death, dismissal, or a dishonorable or 
        bad-conduct discharge may be executed, in accordance 
        with service regulations, after completion of appellate 
        review (and, with respect to death or dismissal, 
        approval under paragraph (3) or (4), as appropriate).
            ``(6) Other sentences.--Except as otherwise 
        provided in this subsection, a general or special 
        court-martial sentence is effective upon entry of 
        judgment and a summary court-martial sentence is 
        effective when the convening authority acts on the 
        sentence.
    ``(b) Deferral of Sentences.--
            ``(1) In general.--On application by an accused, 
        the convening authority or, if the accused is no longer 
        under his or her jurisdiction, the officer exercising 
        general court-martial jurisdiction over the command to 
        which the accused is currently assigned, may, in his or 
        her sole discretion, defer the effective date of a 
        sentence of confinement, reduction, or forfeiture. The 
        deferment shall terminate upon entry of judgment or, in 
        the case of a summary court-martial, when the convening 
        authority acts on the sentence. The deferment may be 
        rescinded at any time by the officer who granted it or, 
        if the accused is no longer under his jurisdiction, by 
        the officer exercising general court-martial 
        jurisdiction over the command to which the accused is 
        currently assigned.
            ``(2) Deferral of certain persons sentenced to 
        confinement.--In any case in which a court-martial 
        sentences a person referred to in paragraph (3) to 
        confinement, the convening authority may defer the 
        service of the sentence to confinement, without the 
        consent of that person, until after the person has been 
        permanently released to the armed forces by a State or 
        foreign country referred to in that paragraph.
            ``(3) Covered persons.--Paragraph (2) applies to a 
        person subject to this chapter who--

                foreign country is temporarily returned by that 
                State or foreign country to the armed forces 
                for trial by court-martial; and
                    ``(B) after the court-martial, is returned 
                to that State or foreign country under the 
                authority of a mutual agreement or treaty, as 
                the case may be.
            ``(4) State defined.--In this subsection, the term 
        `State' includes the District of Columbia and any 
        Commonwealth, territory, or possession of the United 
        States.
            ``(5) Deferral while review pending.--In any case 
        in which a court-martial sentences a person to 
        confinement, but in which review of the case under 
        section 867(a)(2) of this title (article 67(a)(2)) is 
        pending, the Secretary concerned may defer further 
        service of the sentence to confinement while that 
        review is pending.
    ``(c) Appellate Review.--
            ``(1) Completion of appellate review.--Appellate

or 865(b) of this title (article 64 or 65(b)), the Judge

(article 65(b)), review under this section is limited to the 
issue of whether the waiver or withdrawal of an appeal was 
invalid under the law. If the Judge Advocate General determines 
that the waiver or withdrawal of an appeal was invalid, the 
Judge Advocate General shall order appropriate corrective 
action under rules prescribed by the President.

       JOINT EXPLANATORY STATEMENT OF THE COMMITTEE OF CONFERENCE

      The managers on the part of the House and the Senate at 
the conference on the disagreeing votes of the two Houses on 
the amendment of the House to the bill (S. 2943), to authorize 
appropriations for fiscal year 2017 for military activities of 
the Department of Defense, for military construction, and for 
defense activities of the Department of Energy, to prescribe 
military personnel strengths for such fiscal year, and for 
other purposes, submit the following joint statement to the 
House and the Senate in explanation of the effect of the action 
agreed upon by the managers and recommended in the accompanying 
conference report:
      The House amendment struck all of the Senate bill after 
the enacting clause and inserted a substitute text.
      The Senate recedes from its disagreement to the amendment 
of the House with an amendment that is a substitute for the 
Senate bill and the House amendment. The differences between 
the Senate bill, the House amendment, and the substitute agreed 
to in conference are noted below, except for clerical 
corrections, conforming changes made necessary by agreements 
reached by the conferees, and minor drafting and clarifying 
changes.
Compliance with rules of the House of Representatives and Senate 
        regarding earmarks and congressionally directed spending items
      Pursuant to clause 9 of rule XXI of the Rules of the 
House of Representatives and Rule XLIV(3) of the Standing Rules 
of the Senate, neither this conference report nor the 
accompanying joint statement of managers contains any 
congressional earmarks, congressionally directed spending 
items, limited tax benefits, or limited tariff benefits, as 
defined in such rules.
Summary of discretionary authorizations and budget authority 
        implication
      The budget request for national defense discretionary 
programs within the jurisdiction of the Committees on Armed 
Services of the Senate and the House of Representatives for 
fiscal year 2017 was $608.0 billion. Of this amount, $524.0 
billion was requested for base Department of Defense programs, 
$64.6 billion was requested for overseas contingency operations 
of which $5.1 billion was for base requirements, $19.2 billion 
was requested for national security programs in the Department 
of Energy and the Defense Nuclear Facilities Safety Board, and 
$0.2 billion for the Maritime Security Program.
      The conference agreement would authorize $611.2 billion 
in fiscal year 2017, including $523.7 billion for base 
Department of Defense programs, $67.8 billion for overseas 
contingency operations of which $8.3 billion was for base 
requirements, $19.4 billion for national security programs in 
the Department of Energy and the Defense Nuclear Facilities 
Safety Board, and $0.3 billion for the Maritime Security 
Program.
      The two tables preceding the detailed program adjustments 
in Division D of the accompanying joint statement of managers 
summarize the discretionary authorizations in the agreement and 
the equivalent budget authority levels for fiscal year 2017 
defense programs.

Determination of vessel delivery dates (sec. 121)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 123) that 
would require the Secretary of the Navy to deem ship delivery 
to occur at the completion of the final phase of construction.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes with an amendment that would clarify 
the determination of vessel delivery dates and include such 
determination in title 10, United States Code.
Incremental funding for detail design and construction of LHA 
        replacement ship designated LHA 8 (sec. 122)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 121) that 
would allow the Secretary of the Navy to enter into and 
incrementally fund a contract for detail design and 
construction of the LHA Replacement ship, designated LHA-8. 
Subject to the availability of appropriations, funds for 
payments under the contract may be provided from amounts 
authorized to be appropriated for the Department of Defense for 
Shipbuilding and Conversion, Navy, for fiscal years 2017 and 
2018.
      The House amendment contained a similar provision (sec. 
123).
      The House recedes.
Littoral Combat Ship (sec. 123)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 122) that 
would require an annual report on Littoral Combat Ship (LCS) 
mission packages, a certification on the acquisition inventory 
objective of LCS mission packages, a limitation on the use of 
funds to revise or deviate from revision three of the LCS 
acquisition strategy, and a repeal of a reporting requirement 
related to LCS mission modules.
      The House amendment contained a similar provision (sec. 
126).
      The House recedes with an amendment that would:
            (1) Replace the limitation on the use of funds to 
        revise or deviate from revision three of the LCS 
        acquisition strategy with a requirement that the 
        Secretary of Defense provide a certification to the 
        congressional defense committees prior to a revision or 
        deviation from revision three of the LCS acquisition 
        strategy. The conferees' intent is this subsection be 
        limited to those revisions or deviations that would 
        result in a change to: the acquisition inventory 
        objective of 40 ships, annual procurement quantities 
        through fiscal year 2021, or the planned down-select to 
        a single LCS prime contractor no later than fiscal year 
        2019; and
            (2) Prohibit the Secretary of Defense from 
        selecting a single contractor for the LCS or frigate 
        program unless such selection is conducted using 
        competitive procedures, performed for the purpose of 
        constructing a frigate class ship, and occurs only 
        after a frigate design has reached sufficient maturity 
        and completeness.
Limitation on use of sole-source shipbuilding contracts for certain 
        vessels (sec. 124)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 124) that 
would prohibit funds from being used to enter into or prepare 
to enter into sole source contracts for one or more Joint High 
Speed Vessels (JHSV) or Expeditionary Fast Transports (EPF) 
unless the Secretary of the Navy submits to the congressional 
defense committees a certification and a report.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes.
Limitation on availability of funds for the Advanced Arresting Gear 
        Program (sec. 125)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 125) that 
would limit funds for the Advanced Arresting Gear (AAG) to be 
installed on USS Enterprise (CVN-80) until the Secretary of 
Defense submits to the congressional defense committees the 
report described under section 2433a(c)(2) of title 10, United 
States Code, for the AAG program.
      The provision would also direct the Secretary of Defense 
to deem the 2009 AAG acquisition program baseline as the 
original baseline estimate and to execute the requirements of 
sections 2433 and 2433a of title 10, United States Code, as 
though the Department had submitted a Selected Acquisition 
Report with this baseline estimate included. This action would 
provide clarity on the original baseline estimate, which is a 
necessary element of a Nunn-McCurdy review.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes with an amendment that would:
            (1) Require the Navy to report on the AAG program 
        in accordance with section 2432 of title 10, United 
        States Code, which deals with Selected Acquisition 
        Reports, instead of reporting in accordance with 
        section 2433a(c) (2) which deals with critical cost 
        growth in major defense acquisition programs;
            (2) Add a limitation of funds for the AAG to be 
        installed on USS John F. Kennedy (CVN-79) unless the 
        Milestone Decision Authority (MDA) determines that AAG 
        should be installed on that ship, and the MDA submits 
        notification of such determination to the congressional 
        defense committees;
            (3) Establish the original baseline estimate for 
        the AAG program and require the Secretary of Defense to 
        execute the requirements of sections 2433 and 2433a of 
        title 10, United States Code, but exempt the Department 
        from having to rescind the milestone decision approval 
        for the AAG program during the review required by those 
        provisions; and
            (4) During the review required by section 2433a of 
        title 10, United States Code, allow the Secretary of 
        Defense to approve contract action or actions to enter 
        a new contract, exercise an option under an existing 
        contract, or otherwise extend the scope of an existing 
        contract under the AAG program for CVN-80 only if the 
        MDA, on a non-delegable basis, were to determine that 
        such action would be needed to appropriately 
        restructure the program as intended by the Secretary of 
        Defense.
      The conferees note that, although the AAG program is now 
being managed as a Major Defense Acquisition Program, it began 
more than 10 years ago as an Acquisition Category II program, 
which limited transparency and insight of the Navy's 
acquisition and contract management. In 2015, the Comptroller 
General reported that the Department of Defense needed a better 
approach to manage Acquisition Category II programs, 
particularly those programs that have the potential to become 
Major Defense Acquisition Programs.
      Therefore, the conferees direct the Comptroller General 
to review no fewer than five Navy aircraft launch and recovery 
equipment (ALRE) Acquisition Category II programs to determine:
            (1) The roles and responsibilities for acquiring 
        ALRE systems for major ship programs, and the 
        relationship of these programs to the Navy's overall 
        acquisition of the ship platform;
            (2) How the acquisition and contracting practices 
        for these programs compare to guidance, regulations, 
        and best practices for acquisition management;
            (3) How the Navy manages cost, schedule, and 
        performance to meet ship delivery schedules, and what 
        mechanisms, if any, are in place to periodically 
        reassess assignment of such programs to a particular 
        acquisition category;
            (4) Recommendations to improve the Navy's 
        performance in managing ALRE and other Acquisition 
        Category II programs; and
            (5) Any other observations of the Comptroller 
        General.
      The conferees request a briefing to the congressional 
defense committees no later than June 1, 2017, to be followed 
by a report.
Limitation on availability of funds for procurement of U.S.S. 
        Enterprise (CVN-80) (sec. 126)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 126) that 
would limit more than 25 percent of funds authorized to be 
appropriated by this Act or otherwise made available for fiscal 
year 2017 for advance procurement or procurement of USS John F. 
Kennedy (CVN-79) or USS Enterprise (CVN-80) from being 
obligated or expended until the Secretary of the Navy and Chief 
of Naval Operations submit a report to the congressional 
defense committees.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes with an amendment that would remove the 
limitation of funds on CVN-79 and terminate this section on 
September 30, 2021.
Sense of Congress on aircraft carrier procurement schedules (sec. 127)
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 122) that 
would provide the sense of Congress that the Secretary of the 
Navy's schedule to procure 1 aircraft carrier every 5 years 
will reduce the overall aircraft carrier inventory to 10 
aircraft carriers, a level insufficient to meet peacetime and 
war plan requirements. The section would also recommend that 
the Secretary begin construction for the Ford-class aircraft 
carrier designated CVN-81 in fiscal year 2022 and align advance 
procurement activities with this accelerated programming.
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes with an amendment that would remove 
the reference to CVN-81.
Report on P-8 Poseidon aircraft (sec. 128)
      The House amendment contained a provision that would 
require the Secretary of the Navy to submit to the 
congressional defense committees a report regarding future 
capabilities for the P-8 Poseidon aircraft.
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes.
Design and construction of replacement dock landing ship designated 
        LX(R) or amphibious transport dock designated LPD-29 (sec. 129)
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 124) that 
would authorize the Secretary of the Navy to enter into and 
incrementally fund a contract for design and construction of 
the replacement dock landing ship designated LX(R) or the 
amphibious transport dock designated LPD-29.
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes.

                     Subtitle D--Air Force Programs

EC-130H Compass Call recapitalization program (sec. 131)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (Sec. 145) that 
would prohibit the availability of funds for the Air Force EC-
130H Compass Call recapitalization program unless the Air Force 
conducts a full and open competition to acquire the replacement 
aircraft platform.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes with an amendment that strikes the full 
and open competition requirement, and authorizes the Secretary 
of the Air Force to obligate and expend fiscal year 2017 funds 
for the purpose of re-hosting the primary mission equipment of 
the current EC-130H Compass Call aircraft fleet on to a more 
operationally effective and survivable airborne platform to 
meet combatant commander requirements. The amendment limits 
procurement to the first two aircraft of the planned ten 
aircraft fleet until the Secretary determines there is a high 
likelihood the program will meet the requirements of the 
combatant commands.
      The conferees agree the restructured EC-130H Compass Call 
program shall be implemented consistent with existing 
authorities, including Federal Acquisition Regulation Part 6.3 
and Department of Defense Instruction 5000.02, ``Operation of 
the Defense Acquisition System.''
      The conferees note the fiscal year 2017 funding 
adjustments to allow the Secretary of the Air Force to proceed 
with the program are outlined in Division D.
Repeal of requirement to preserve certain retired C-5 aircraft (sec. 
        132)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (Sec. 143) that 
would repeal the requirement in Section 141 of the National 
Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2013 (Public Law 112-
239) for the Secretary of the Air Force to preserve certain 
retired C-5 aircraft.
      The House amendment contained a similar provision (Sec. 
132).
      The Senate recedes.
Repeal of requirement to preserve F-117 aircraft in recallable 
        condition (sec. 133)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (Sec. 144) that 
would repeal the requirement in Section 136 of the John Warner 
National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2007 (Public 
Law 109-364; 120 Stat. 2114) to preserve F-117 aircraft in 
recallable condition.
      The House amendment contained a similar provision (Sec. 
133).
      The House recedes.
Prohibition on availability of funds for retirement of A-10 aircraft 
        (sec. 134)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (Sec. 141) that 
would amend section 142 of the National Defense Authorization 
Act for Fiscal Year 2016 (Public Law 114-92) by extending the 
prohibition on obligation or expenditure of funds to retire or 
prepare to retire A-10 aircraft until the Secretary of the Air 
Force and Chief of Staff of the Air Force submit a report to 
the congressional defense committees describing their views on 
the results of an F-35A initial operational test and evaluation 
(IOT&E). The provision would also ensure the F-35A IOT&E 
includes comparison tests and evaluation of the F-35A and A-10C 
in conducting close air support, combat search and rescue, and 
airborne forward air controller missions. The provision would 
also require the Comptroller General of the United States to 
provide an independent assessment of the report from the 
Secretary and Chief of Staff.
      The House amendment contained a similar provision (Sec. 
134) that would prevent retirements of A-10 aircraft, but would 
allow the Secretary of the Air Force to transition the A-10 
unit at Fort Wayne Air National Guard Base, Indiana, to an F-16 
unit in fiscal year 2018, as the Secretary had proposed in the 
budget of the President for fiscal year 2017.
      The Senate recedes.
      The conferees agree that section (f)(2) of the House 
provision explicitly prevents the divestment of any A-10 
aircraft if the special rule were to be invoked.
      The conferees also agree the Comptroller General of the 
United States shall assess the conclusions and assertions 
contained in the Secretary's and Chief of Staff's report on the 
F-35A IOT&E, and submit a report to the congressional defense 
committees of such assessment not later than 90 days after the 
Secretary's and Chief of Staff's report is submitted.
      The conferees also agree the Comptroller General's report 
shall include the following:
            (1) An assessment of whether the conclusions and 
        assertions included in the report submitted by the 
        Secretary and Chief of Staff are comprehensive, fully 
        supported, and sufficiently detailed; and
            (2) An identification of any shortcomings, 
        limitations, or other matters that affect the quality 
        of the report's findings or conclusions.
Limitation on availability of funds for destruction of A-10 aircraft in 
        storage status (sec. 135)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (Sec. 142) that 
would prohibit the availability of funds authorized to be 
appropriated by this Act or otherwise made available for the 
Air Force to be obligated for the purpose of scrapping, 
destroying, or otherwise disposing of any A-10 aircraft in any 
storage status in the Aerospace Maintenance and Regeneration 
Group (AMARG) that have serviceable wings or other components 
that could be used to prevent total active inventory A-10 
aircraft from being permanently removed from flyable status due 
to unserviceable wings or other components.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes with minor technical corrections.
      The conferees agree the provision does not prevent the 
Air Force from reclaiming any usable parts or components on A-
10 aircraft in any storage status for the purpose of keeping 
active inventory A-10 aircraft in flyable and mission capable 
condition.
Prohibition on availability of funds for retirement of Joint 
        Surveillance Target Attack Radar System aircraft (sec. 136)
      The House amendment contained a provision (Sec. 135) that 
would prohibit the availability of funds for retirement of 
Joint Surveillance Target Attack Radar System aircraft in 
fiscal year 2018.
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes.
Elimination of annual report on aircraft inventory (sec. 137)
      The House amendment contained a provision (Sec. 131) that 
would strike the requirement in Section 231a of title 10, 
United States Code, for the Secretary of Defense to deliver an 
annual report on the military services' aircraft inventory to 
the congressional defense committees.
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes.

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

Standardization of 5.56mm rifle ammunition (sec. 141)
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 146) that 
would require the Secretary of Defense to ensure that the Army 
and the Marine Corps are using in combat one standard type of 
enhanced 5.56mm rifle ammunition not later than one year after 
the date of the enactment of this Act with exceptions that 
require the Secretary of Defense to certify to the 
congressional defense committees the reasons why there are 
different 5.56mm rounds being used in combat.
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes.
Fire suppressant and fuel containment standards for certain vehicles 
        (sec. 142)
      The House amendment contained a provision (Sec. 142) that 
would require the Secretary of the Army, or his designee, and 
the Secretary of the Navy, or his designee, to establish and 
maintain policy guidance regarding the establishment of, and 
updates to, fire suppressant and fuel containment standards 
that meet survivability requirements across various classes of 
vehicles, including light tactical vehicles, medium tactical 
vehicles, heavy tactical vehicles, and ground combat vehicles 
for the Army and Marine Corps. This section would also require 
the Secretary of the Army and the Secretary of the Navy to 
provide a report to the congressional defense committees, not 
later than 180 days after the date of the enactment of this 
Act, that contains policy guidance for each class of vehicle 
including armor, fire suppression systems, self-sealing 
material and containment technologies, and any other 
information as determined by the Secretaries.
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes.
Limitation on availability of funds for destruction of certain cluster 
        munitions (sec. 143)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (section 152) that 
would limit the funds available for the destruction of cluster 
munitions until the Secretary of Defense submits a report on 
the Department's policy on, and plan for, cluster munitions.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes with an amendment that would limit the 
funds for the destruction of serviceable cluster munitions, but 
would allow the demilitarization of cluster munitions 
determined to be unserviceable due to a significant failure to 
meet performance or logistics requirements. Cluster munitions 
categorized as unserviceable solely due to current or amended 
Department of Defense policy related to cluster munitions would 
not meet this definition of unserviceable and would be subject 
to the limitation in this provision.
Report on Department of Defense munitions strategy for the combatant 
        commands (sec. 144)
      The House amendment contained a provision that would 
require the Secretary of Defense to submit to the congressional 
defense committees a report on the munitions strategy of the 
combatant commands.
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes with an amendment that would reduce 
the time horizon for the strategy and modify the elements of 
the required report.
Modifications to reporting on use of combat mission requirements funds 
        (sec. 145)
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 141) that 
would amend the quarterly report requirement in section 123 of 
the Ike Skelton National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal 
Year 2011 (Public Law 111-383), to sunset the requirement for 
such reports on September 30, 2018.
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes with an amendment that would change 
from quarterly to annually the requirement for the commander of 
U.S. Special Operations Command to submit a report on use of 
Combat Mission Requirements funds.
Report on alternative management structures for the F-35 joint strike 
        fighter program (sec. 146)
      The Senate bill contained a provision that would 
disestablish the F-35 Joint Program Office (JPO) and devolve 
relevant responsibilities to the Air Force and the Navy.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes with an amendment that would remove the 
requirement to disestablish the JPO and require the Secretary 
of Defense, no later than March 31, 2017, to submit to the 
congressional defense committees a report on potential options 
for the future management of the Joint Strike Fighter program.
Comptroller General review of F-35 Lightning II aircraft sustainment 
        support (sec. 147)
      The House amendment contained a provision (Sec. 144) that 
would direct the Comptroller General of the United States to 
conduct an analysis of the sustainment support strategy for the 
F-35 Joint Strike Fighter program.
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes.
Briefing on acquisition strategy for Ground Mobility Vehicle (sec. 148)
      The House amendment contained a provision (Sec. 145) that 
would direct the Under Secretary of Defense for Acquisition, 
Technology, and Logistics, in consultation with the Secretary 
of the Army, to provide a briefing to the congressional defense 
committees on the acquisition strategy for the ground mobility 
vehicle.
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes.
Study and report on optimal mix of aircraft capabilities for the Armed 
        Forces (sec. 149)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (Sec. 151) that 
would direct the Secretary of Defense to obtain an independent 
study on the future mix of aircraft platforms for the Armed 
Forces.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes with an amendment changing the study to 
be conducted by the Secretary of Defense rather than by an 
independent entity, adds the congressional intelligence 
committees as recipients of the study report, and includes 
other minor technical corrections.

                   Legislative Provisions Not Adopted

Funding for surface-to-air missile system
      The House amendment contained a provision (Section 114) 
that would authorize an increase in funding for Missile 
Procurement, Army line 002, MSE missile, by $84.2 million and 
decrease funding for Defense Nuclear Nonproliferation Research 
and Development, material management and minimization, by an 
equal $84.2 million.
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes.
      The outcome is reflected in sections 4101 and 4701 of the 
Act.
Procurement authority for aircraft carrier programs
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 121) that 
would provide economic order quantity authority for the 
construction of two Ford-class aircraft carriers and 
incremental funding authority for the nuclear refueling and 
complex overhaul of five Nimitz-class aircraft carriers.
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes.
Ship to shore connector program
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 125) that 
would authorize the Secretary of the Navy to enter into a 
contract for the procurement of up to 45 Ship to Shore 
Connector vessels.
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes.
Limitation on availability of funds for Tactical Combat Training System 
        Increment II
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 127) that 
would limit the obligation or expenditure of 25 percent of 
funds for the Tactical Combat Training Systems (TCTS) Increment 
II program until 60 days after the Secretary of the Navy 
submitted the report required by section 235 of the National 
Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2016 (Public Law 114-
92).
      The House amendment contained a similar provision (sec. 
218) that would limit the obligation or expenditure of 20 
percent of the funds for TCTS Increment II until the Secretary 
of the Navy and Secretary of the Air Force provided the 
required report.
      The conference agreement includes neither provision. 
Because the Secretary of the Navy submitted the required report 
in May 2016, the limitation on availability of funds within 
these provisions is no longer applicable.
      However, the conferees remain concerned about training 
gaps, both in live and simulated environments, for pilots in 
fourth and fifth-generation aircraft. Pilots will have to 
operate these aircraft with advanced weapon systems in highly 
complex anti-access, area denial environments. The conferees 
recognize the importance of developing higher fidelity 
interoperable training for combat pilots using live-virtual-
constructive (LVC) exercises. Such exercises should allow the 
Department to simulate a broader range of threat system 
capabilities that enable training aircraft pilots under more 
realistic combat conditions.
      Therefore, the conferees expect the Department of Defense 
to apply the necessary focus and resources to develop and 
support LVC training as soon as possible.
Prohibition on availability of funds for retirement of U-2 aircraft
      The House amendment contained a provision (Sec. 137) that 
would prohibit the availability of funds for the retirement of 
U-2 aircraft.
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes. Section 133 of the National Defense 
Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2012 (Public Law 112-81) 
prohibits the Secretary of the Air Force from taking any action 
that would prevent the Air Force from maintaining the U-2 
aircraft fleet in its current configuration and capability 
beyond fiscal year 2016. The conferees agree that this 
provision remains in full force and effect.
Medium Altitude Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance aircraft
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 153) that 
would prohibit the obligation or expenditure of funds for the 
acquisition of Medium Altitude Intelligence, Surveillance, and 
Reconnaissance (MAISR) aircraft in fiscal year 2017 until the 
Assistant Secretary of Defense for Special Operations and Low 
Intensity Conflict (ASD SOLIC), in consultation with the 
Commander of U.S. Special Operations Command (SOCOM), provides 
the congressional defense committees with a report on the 
manned ISR requirements of the command and how such an 
acquisition aligns with the SOCOM ISR Roadmap.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes.
      The conferees understand that a SOCOM analysis determined 
that the cost avoidance of acquiring versus leasing MAISR 
aircraft is approximately $1.3 million per month with a break 
even return on investment of approximately 11 months. However, 
the conferees believe that procurement of ISR aircraft should 
not be ad hoc, but instead be a deliberate acquisition informed 
by an analysis of alternatives that fully considers changing 
requirements, threats, capabilities, tactics, and resource 
constraints. Therefore, the conferees direct ASD SOLIC and 
SOCOM to provide an interim briefing on the scope, methodology 
and timeline for the Next Generation Manned ISR Study and 
Analysis of Alternatives no later than 90 days after enactment 
of this Act.

         TITLE II--RESEARCH, DEVELOPMENT, TEST, AND EVALUATION

              Subtitle A--Authorization of Appropriations

Authorization of appropriations (sec. 201)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 201) that 
would authorize appropriations for Research, Development, Test, 
and Evaluation at the levels identified in section 4201 of 
division D of this Act.
      The House amendment contained an identical provision 
(sec. 201).
      The conference agreement includes this provision.

    Subtitle B--Program Requirements, Restrictions, and Limitations

Laboratory quality enhancement program (sec. 211)
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 211) that 
would require the establishment of a Laboratory Quality 
Enhancement Program to support the analysis and implementation 
of current policies, as well as make recommendations for new 
initiatives to support the improvement and enhancement of the 
Department of Defense's Science and Technology Reinvention 
Laboratories. The House provision would also align management 
of the laboratory demonstration program with the Assistant 
Secretary of Defense for Research and Engineering.
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 1126) that 
would align management of the laboratory demonstration program 
with the Under Secretary of Defense for Acquisition, 
Technology, and Logistics.
      The Senate recedes with an amendment to adjust the 
membership of the panel and to emphasize that the goal of the 
laboratory personnel system should be to support the efficient 
operations of those institutions.
Modification of mechanisms to provide funds for defense laboratories 
        for research and development of technologies for military 
        missions (sec. 212)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 211) that 
would raise the limit of funds authorized under Section 219 of 
the Duncan Hunter National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal 
Year 2009 (Public Law 110-417) up to four percent of all funds 
available to a laboratory. The provision would also eliminate 
the sunset date for authorization of this authority.
      The House amendment contained a similar provision (sec. 
212) that would set the level of funding at three percent, 
eliminate the sunset date, and allow certain federally funded 
research and development centers to use this authority.
      The House recedes with an amendment that would set the 
level of Section 219 funding at between two and four percent.
Making permanent authority for defense research and development rapid 
        innovation program (sec. 213)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 212) that 
would repeal the sunset provision of the Rapid Innovation 
Program and make the authorization of the program permanent.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes.
Authorization for National Defense University and Defense Acquisition 
        University to enter into cooperative research and development 
        agreements (sec. 214)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 213) that 
would authorize the Defense Acquisition University and the 
National Defense University to enter into cooperative 
agreements, which involve the provision of grant money, and 
cooperative research and development agreements with 
universities, not-for-profit institutions, and other entities 
to support their designated missions.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes.
Manufacturing engineering education grant program (sec. 215)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 214) that 
would allow the Department of Defense to provide grants to 
institutions of higher education, including technical and 
community colleges, for the purposes of enhancing education in 
manufacturing engineering.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes with technical amendments to clarify 
several aspects of the grant program.
Notification requirement for certain rapid prototyping, 
        experimentation, and demonstration activities (sec. 216)
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 213) that 
would require the Secretary of the Navy to provide written 
notification to the congressional defense committees within 10 
days before initiating a rapid prototyping, experimentation, or 
demonstration activity using funds from PE 63382N (Navy 
Advanced Combat Systems Technology).
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes.
Increased micro-purchase threshold for research programs and entities 
        (sec. 217)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 215) that 
would increase the micro-purchase threshold in Department of 
Defense research and laboratories activities from $3,000 to 
$10,000. In raising the limit, this provision would allow 
appropriate organizations, such as universities, defense labs, 
and other performers, to facilitate easy and administratively 
efficient purchasing of small dollar items.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes with an amendment to extend the 
increase in micro-purchase threshold to all research activities 
government-wide.
Improved biosafety for handling of select agents and toxins (sec. 218)
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 214) that 
would direct the Department of Defense to implement several 
improvements for handling of select agents and toxins, as 
recommended from an Army 15-6 investigative report on the 
individual and institutional accountability for the shipment of 
viable Bacillus Anthracis from Dugway Proving Ground. This 
section would require the Department to implement a quality 
assurance and quality control program for any facility 
producing biological select agents and toxins, and for the 
Secretary of Defense to submit a report to the congressional 
defense committees by February 1, 2017, on the potential 
consolidation of facilities that work with biological select 
agents and toxins. This section would also require the 
Comptroller General of the United States to submit a report to 
the congressional defense committees by September 1, 2017, on 
the effectiveness and completeness of the Department of 
Defense's actions taken to address the findings and 
recommendations of the Army 15-6 investigation.
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes with a technical amendment.
Designation of Department of Defense senior official with principal 
        responsibility for directed energy weapons (sec. 219)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 216) that 
would grant rapid acquisition authorities for directed energy 
weapons systems to accelerate the development and fielding of 
directed energy technology and to help offset the gains of 
potential adversaries. The Senate provision would also 
establish a joint directed energy program office at the 
Department of Defense.
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 220) that 
would require the Secretary of Defense to designate a senior 
official already serving within the Department of Defense as a 
senior official with principal responsibility for the 
development and demonstration of directed energy weapons for 
the Department.
      The Senate recedes with an amendment that would require 
the senior designated official to develop a strategic roadmap 
for the development and fielding of directed energy technology 
and to accelerate such development and fielding. The amendment 
would also rename the joint technology office for high energy 
lasers to the joint directed energy transition office, and 
would expand its mission to work with the senior designated 
official to push the demonstration and transition of directed 
energy systems, as well as the development of key technologies.
      The conferees expect and encourage the Department of 
Defense to use rapid acquisition authorities authorized to the 
department in Section 806 of the Bob Stump National Defense 
Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2003 (Public Law 107-314; 10 
U.S.C. 2302 note) to speed the development and deployment of 
operational directed energy capabilities. The committee 
believes that this provision allows the Secretary of Defense to 
better use the range of acquisition authorities already at the 
disposal of the department for the purposes of directed energy 
weapons system acquisition, including:
            (1) Rapid acquisition authority provided under 
        Section 806;
            (2) Use of other transactions authority provided 
        under section 2371 of Title 10, United States Code;
            (3) Simplified acquisition procedures for the 
        acquisition of commercial items; and
            (4) Authority for procurement for experimental 
        purposes provided under section 2373 of Title 10, 
        United States Code.
Restructuring of the distributed common ground system of the Army (sec. 
        220)
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 219) that 
would require the Secretary of the Army to restructure versions 
of the distributed common ground system of the Army after 
Increment 1. The Secretary of the Army shall discontinue 
development of new software code of any component of the system 
for which there is commercial, open source, or Government off 
the shelf software that is capable of fulfilling at least 80 
percent of the system requirements; and conduct a review of the 
acquisition strategy for the program to ensure that procurement 
of commercial software is the preferred method of meeting 
program requirements. The Secretary of the Army shall not award 
any contract for the development of a new component software 
capability if such a capability is already a commercial item.
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes with an amendment.
      The conferees expect the Secretary of the Army to rapidly 
execute this acquisition so as to quickly improve the field 
performance of the existing distributed common ground system 
for the Army, which we do not believe is adequately serving the 
needs of units at division, brigade and battalion levels.
Limitation on availability of funds for countering weapons of mass 
        destruction system Constellation (sec. 221)
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 216) that 
would prohibit the Department of Defense from obligating or 
expending any funds in fiscal year 2017 for research, 
development, and prototyping of the countering weapons of mass 
destruction situational awareness information system, known as 
``Constellation.''
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes with an amendment that would limit 
half the funds available for Constellation until the Secretary 
of Defense provides an independent review and assessment of the 
requirements and implementation plan for this system. In 
addition congressional defense committees shall receive 
periodic updates prior to the completion of the review.
Limitation on availability of funds for Defense Innovation Unit 
        Experimental (sec. 222)
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 217) that 
would limit the amount of authorized funds available to be 
obligated or expended for the Defense Innovation Unit 
Experimental (DIUx) to no more than 80 percent until the 
Secretary of Defense provides a report to the congressional 
defense committees on the charter for and the use of funds to 
establish and expand DIUx.
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes with an amendment that would alter the 
amount of funds subject to limitation and add additional 
specificity to the reporting requirement.
      The conferees remain cautiously optimistic that the 
changes to the organizational structure and functions of DIUx 
could become important tools for the Department of Defense 
(DoD) to engage with new and non-traditional commercial sources 
of innovation, as well as rapidly identify and integrate new 
technologies into defense systems. The conferees believe that 
outreach to commercial companies, small businesses and other 
non-traditional defense contractors, in Silicon Valley and 
across the nation, will be a key element in all efforts at 
modernizing defense systems and pursuing offsetting technology 
strategies. However, the conferees are concerned that 
investments made by DIUx to-date were not focused on rapid 
delivery of much needed game-changing technologies. 
Additionally, DIUx's customer base is not as diverse as 
expected and includes organizations, such as U.S. Special 
Operations Command, with their own acquisition authority and 
entity established to leverage innovation. Although the 
conferees are not opposed to any organization partnering with 
DIUx, the conferees encourage DIUx to establish relationships 
with services and other Department of Defense organizations 
that do not have their own funding, authorities, and innovation 
hubs.
      Additionally, the conferees remain concerned that in the 
Department's rush to try something new, defense leaders have 
not taken the time to determine how effective recent 
organizational and management changes are before seeking a 
rapid expansion of resources. Nor do the conferees believe that 
the Department has postured DIUx to be successful in the 
innovation ecosystem with partners across the Department, 
finding ways to multiply the effectiveness and networking 
potential of DIUx by leveraging the personnel, expertise, 
authorities, and resources of existing successful research, 
development, innovation, and tech transfer mechanisms. These 
existing mechanisms include the Small Business Innovative 
Research and Small Business Technology Transition programs, the 
Department of Defense research laboratories, and other entities 
that look at technology in classified settings.
      Additionally, the conferees are concerned that the 
Department has found useful mechanisms to identify and engage 
with new commercial entities, without making demonstrable 
progress in reducing the acquisition and contractual barriers 
of entry for these non-traditional providers, as well as all 
commercial entities wishing to do business with the Department. 
Without such progress, the conferees are concerned that these 
non-traditional vendors will become frustrated over time, as 
has happened in the past, and will revert back to a posture 
that, at best, reluctantly partners in defense work, and at 
worst, actively rejects all work with the Department of Defense 
because the acquisition system is too burdensome and 
bureaucratic.
Limitation on availability of funds for Joint Surveillance Target 
        Attack Radar System (JSTARS) recapitalization program (sec. 
        223)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (Sec. 146) that 
would limit the availability of fiscal year 2017 and beyond 
funds for the Joint Surveillance Target Attack Radar System 
recapitalization program unless the contract for engineering 
and manufacturing development uses a firm fixed price contract 
structure.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes with an amendment that provides the 
Secretary of Defense with authority to waive the limitation in 
the provision if the Secretary determines the waiver is in the 
national security interests of the United States, and includes 
other minor technical corrections.
      The conferees note that to ensure the integrity of the 
full and open competition nature of this program, they caution 
the Air Force to guard against the potential prejudicing of 
this source selection by other Air Force recapitalization 
programs.
Acquisition program baseline and annual reports on follow-on 
        modernization program for F-35 Joint Strike Fighter (sec. 224)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 1087) that 
would require the Department of Defense to treat the F-35 
Follow-on Modernization program as a separate Major Defense 
Acquisition Program (MDAP).
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes with an amendment that would remove the 
requirement to treat the Follow-on Modernization program as a 
separate MDAP and require the Secretary of Defense, not later 
than March 31, 2017, to submit to the congressional defense 
committees a report that contains the basic elements of an 
acquisition program baseline for Block 4 modernization.

                 Subtitle C--Reports and Other Matters

Strategy for assured access to trusted microelectronics (sec. 231)
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 231) that 
would require the Secretary of Defense to develop and implement 
a strategy for developing and acquiring trusted 
microelectronics from various sources by 2020. The House 
provision would further require the Secretary of Defense to 
certify by September 30, 2020, that the Department has 
implemented the recommendations of the strategy, and has 
created an assured means of accessing sufficient supply of 
trusted microelectronics.
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes with an amendment that would add 
additional elements to the required strategy.
Pilot program on evaluation of commercial information technology (sec. 
        232)
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 232) that 
would require the Defense Information Systems Agency to 
establish a pilot program to evaluate commercially available 
information technology tools to better understand and 
characterize their potential impact on Department of Defense 
networks and computing environments through prototyping, 
experimentation, operational demonstration, military user 
assessment, or other means to get quantitative and qualitative 
feedback on the commercial item.
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes with a clarifying amendment.
Pilot program for the enhancement of the research, development, test, 
        and evaluation centers of the Department of Defense (sec. 233)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 948) that 
would allow directors of Department of Defense research and 
development laboratories, as well as the director of the 
Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency to waive on a 
temporary basis regulations, instructions, publications, 
policies, and procedures of the Department of Defense as the 
director believes appropriate.
      The House amendment contained a similar provision (sec. 
233) that would allow the services to demonstrate methods for 
the more effective development of research, development, test, 
and evaluation functions.
      The Senate recedes with an amendment that would combine 
features of both provisions and create a pilot program open to 
research and development laboratories, test and evaluation 
centers, and the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency. The 
amended provision would allow directors of these entities to 
waive on a temporary basis any regulation, restriction, 
requirement, guidance, policy, procedure, or departmental 
instruction that would generate greater value and efficiencies 
in research and development activities, enable more efficient 
and effective operations, and enable more rapid deployment of 
warfighter capabilities.
      In this provision, the conferees expect the secretaries 
of the services to ensure that participation in the program 
includes at least five science and technology reinvention 
laboratories and at least five test and evaluation centers from 
each service with the highest likelihood to use innovatively 
the authority for this new management flexibility to 
demonstrate the value for the entire Department.
      In addition, the conferees expect that the assistant 
secretaries of the services will work with their appropriate 
counterparts within the services to complete evaluation of 
waiver requests in a timely and responsive manner.
Pilot program on modernization and fielding of electromagnetic spectrum 
        warfare systems and electronic warfare capabilities (sec. 234)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 897) that 
would stipulate that funds for electromagnetic spectrum warfare 
systems and EW systems may be used for the development and 
fielding of such systems. The provision would also amend 
section 806(c)(1) of the Bob Stump National Defense 
Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2003 (Public Law 107-314) to 
add a new subparagraph addressing the rapid acquisition of 
electronic warfare capabilities.
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 234) that 
would authorize the Secretary of Defense to carry out a pilot 
program on the modernization of electromagnetic spectrum 
warfare systems and electronic warfare (EW) systems. The House 
provision would direct the Electronic Warfare Executive 
Committee (EWEC) to select a total of five such systems 
currently in sustainment for modernization under the pilot 
program.
      The Senate recedes with an amendment that would including 
fielding of EW systems, increases the number of systems to be 
selected for the pilot program from 5 to 10, adds a termination 
date of September 30, 2023 to the pilot program, and authorizes 
appropriated electromagnetic spectrum warfare and electronic 
warfare funds to be used for the development and fielding of 
electromagnetic spectrum warfare systems and electronic warfare 
capabilities.
Pilot program on disclosure of certain sensitive information to 
        federally funded research and development centers (sec. 235)

for Fiscal Year 2017 contained directive report language 
requiring the Secretary of Defense to report on the plans for 
programming, budgeting, requirements, and procurement of female 
specific equipment including helmets, combat clothing, body 
armor, footwear, and other critical safety item equipment 
categories. The conferees remained concerned that currently 
available items of personal protective equipment (PPE) and 
organizational clothing and individual equipment (OCIE) may not 
meet the specific and unique requirements for female combat

consider development and use of joint acquisition strategies 
for this equipment as part of the two reporting requirements.

      The conferees direct the Secretary of Defense, not later 
than March 1, 2017, to provide the congressional defense 
committees with a briefing on the well drilling capabilities of 
active duty and reserve forces. The briefing should include a 
description of the training requirements of active and reserve

(sec. 521).
      The conference agreement includes this provision.

              Subtitle C--Authorization of Appropriations

Military personnel (sec. 421)

personnel and military technicians for the Army National Guard 
is essential to maintaining the readiness of the Army National 
Guard.
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes.

                   Title V--Military Personnel Policy

                  Subtitle A--Officer Personnel Policy

Reduction in number of general and flag officers on active duty and 
        authorized end strength after December 31, 2022, of such 
        general and flag officers (sec. 501)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 501) that 
would add a new section 525a to title 10, United States Code, 
to establish the authorized distribution of general and flag 
officers for the Army, Navy, Marine Corps, and Air Force and to 
require a 25 percent reduction in the number of general and 
flag officers in the military departments. The provision would 
also sunset the authorized distribution of general and flag 
officers in section 525 of title 10, after December 31, 2017.
      The amendment would add a new section 526a to title 10, 
United States Code, to limit the number of general and flag 
officers on Active Duty in the military departments and to 
exclude from those limits the specified number of general and 
flag officers serving in joint duty assignments and to require 
a 25 percent reduction in the number of general and flag 
officers in the military departments and the joint pool. The 
provision would also sunset the authorized distribution of 
general and flag officers in section 526 of title 10, after 
December 31, 2017.
      The amendment would add a new section 12004a to title 10 
United States Code, to require a 25 percent reduction in the 
number of general and flag officers in active status in the 
reserve component, including general officers of the National 
Guard of the States and territories and general officers 
serving in the National Guard Bureau, but excluding officers 
serving as adjutants general or assistant adjutants general of 
a state. The provision would also sunset the authorized 
distribution of general and flag officers in section 12004 of 
title 10, after December 31, 2017.
      The House amendment included a provision (sec. 910) that 
would amend section 164(e) of title 10, United States Code, to 
specify that the grade of an officer serving as commander of a 
service or functional component command shall be no higher than 
lieutenant general or vice admiral. The provision would further 
require that the total number of officers in the grade of 
general or admiral on active duty be reduced by five positions, 
and to require a report to the congressional defense committees 
on the Department's plan to implement those reductions.
      The House recedes with an amendment that would create a 
new section 526a of title 10, United States Code, to establish 
authorized end strength of general and flag officers, to 
reflect a reduction of 110 general and flag officers on active 
duty by not later than December 31, 2022, and to redistribute 
authorized general and flag officers across the military 
departments and the joint pool.
      The amendment would require the Secretary of Defense to 
conduct a study of general and flag officer requirements with a 
goal of identifying and justifying each general or flag officer 
position in terms of overall force structure, scope of 
responsibility, command and control requirements, and force 
readiness execution and to identify an additional 10 percent 
reduction in the number of general and flag officers above the 
reduction of 110 billets. The results of the study shall be 
submitted to the Committees on Armed Services of the Senate and 
the House of Representatives no later than April 1, 2017. If 
practicable, an interim report shall be submitted to the 
Committees on Armed Forces of the Senate and the House of 
Representatives on the progress of the completion of the study 
and recommendations for achieving the additional 10% reductions 
in the number of general and flag officer positions.
      The provision would also require the Secretary of Defense 
to submit to Congress with the budget for the Department of 
Defense for fiscal year 2019 a plan to achieve the reduction of 
110 general and flag officers and the proposed distribution of 
authorized general and flag officer positions to achieve 
prescribed levels by December 31, 2022. Progress reports on 
implementing the required plan for reductions would be required 
with the budget of the Department of Defense for fiscal years 
2020, 2021, and 2022. The provision would require the Secretary 
of Defense to revise applicable guidance of the Department of 
Defense on general and flag officer authorizations not later 
than 120 days after completion of the plan to ensure that the 
reductions required under this provision are incorporated into 
the planning for executing promotions by the military 
departments, to ensure that resulting grades for general and 
flag officers are uniformly applied to positions of similar 
duties and responsibilities across the military departments and 
the joint pool, and that planning achieves a reduction in 
headquarters functions and administrative and support 
activities and staff of the Department of Defense and the 
military departments.
      The provision would provide for an orderly transition for 
officers recently assigned to positions that would be 
eliminated and to require notification to Congress for any 
affected officer who, by December 31, 2022, has not completed 
24 months in a position to be eliminated who may be allowed to 
complete at least 24 months in such position. The provision 
would also require certification to accompany all nominations 
of officers to a grade above O-6, forwarded by the President to 
the Senate for appointment, by and with advice and consent of 
the Senate, that the appointment will not interfere with 
achieving the reduction of 110 general and flag officers 
required by the provision.
      The conferees note that despite two decades of 
Congressional concern the Department of Defense and the 
military departments have not demonstrated the willingness to 
implement even the reduction in the number of general and flag 
officer positions directed by the Secretary of Defense's Track 
Four Efficiencies Initiatives decision of March 14, 2011. In 
the context of the Department of Defense's continued requests 
to reduce military end strength, especially in the Army and the 
Marine Corps, reductions that Congress has cautiously 
considered and authorized, the time has come for the Department 
to rigorously evaluate and validate every general and flag 
officer position. The conferees believe that an additional 10% 
reduction in the number of general and flag officer positions 
may be appropriate by downgrading or eliminating positions in 
addition to the 110 positions required to be eliminated under 
this provision are achieved. The conferees expect that the 
Department of Defense and the military departments will improve 
efficiency by eliminating bloated headquarters and staffs while 
preserving the necessary number and grades of positions for 
general and flag officers who are responsible to train and lead 
our Nation's forces in battle and to bring them safely home 
again. The conferees expect that the leadership of the 
Department of Defense and the military departments will 
approach this effort with the seriousness of conviction that 
our men and women in uniform, and the American people deserve.
Repeal of statutory specification of general or flag officer grade for 
        various positions in the Armed Forces (sec. 502)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 502) that 
would amend or repeal various statutory specifications in title 
10, United States Code, to remove the requirement that an 
officer serving must hold a specified general or flag officer 
grade for certain positions in the Armed Forces.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes with an amendment that would remove the 
statutory general officer grade requirement associated with the 
Surgeon General of the Navy and the Surgeon General of the Air 
Force to conform with the elimination of the grade requirements 
for the Surgeon General of the Army. The amendment would also 
remove the entitlement of the Assistant Judge Advocate Generals 
of the Navy to receive retired pay for the grade of rear 
admiral (lower half) unless the officer is authorized the pay 
under another provision of law.
      The conferees note that the provision would not affect 
the grade of an officer currently serving in the positions and 
would not prohibit the positions from being filled by an 
officer with the same, or a higher, or lower grade than the law 
currently requires.
Number of Marine Corps general officers (sec. 503)
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 501) that 
would amend sections 525 and 526 of title 10, United States 
Code, to authorize an increase in the number of general 
officers in the grade above major general from 15 to 17, 
decrease the number of general officers in the grade of major 
general from 23 to 22, and increase the number of deputy 
commandants within the Marine Corps from 6 to 7.
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes.
Promotion eligibility period for officers whose confirmation of 
        appointment is delayed due to nonavailability to the Senate of 
        probative information under control of non-Department of 
        Defense agencies (sec. 504)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 506) that 
would amend section 629(c) of title 10, United States Code, to 
provide that the period for promotion eligibility of an officer 
would not expire during the period when the Senate is unable to 
obtain information necessary to give its advice and consent to 
the appointment concerned because the information is under 
control of a department or agency of the Federal Government 
other than the Department of Defense.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes.
Continuation of certain officers on active duty without regard to 
        requirement for retirement for years of service (sec. 505)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 509) that 
would amend chapter 36 of title 10, United States Code, to 
authorize service secretaries to allow officers in a grade 
above O-4 who are serving in military occupational specialties 
designated by the secretary to remain on Active Duty for up to 
40 years of active service.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes.
Equal consideration of officers for early retirement or discharge (sec. 
        506)
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 502) that 
would amend section 638a of title 10, United States Code, to 
authorize the secretaries of the military departments to 
convene boards to consider officers for involuntary separation 
below the grade of lieutenant colonel or commander as a single, 
consolidated year group without distinctions based on 
retirement eligibility and to align separation boards for such 
officers with the practices for promotion selection boards.
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes.
Modification of authority to drop from rolls a commissioned officer 
        (sec. 507)
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 503) that 
would amend section 1161(b) of title 10, United States Code, to 
authorize the Secretary of Defense, or the Secretary of the 
department in which the Coast Guard is operating when it is not 
operating in the Navy, to drop from the rolls of any armed 
force any commissioned officer (1) who has been absent without 
authority for at least three months, (2) who may be separated 
under section 1167 of title 10, United States Code, by reason 
of a sentence to confinement adjudged by a court-martial, or 
(3) who is sentenced to confinement in a Federal or State 
penitentiary or correctional institution after having been 
found guilty of an offense by a court other than a court-
martial or other military court, and whose sentence has become 
final.
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes.
Extension of force management authorities allowing enhanced flexibility 
        for officer personnel management (sec. 508)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 510) that 
would:
            (a) amend section 4403(i) of the National Defense 
        Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 1993 (Public Law 102-
        484) to extend Temporary Early Retirement Authority 
        through December 31, 2025;
            (b) amend section 638a(a)(2) of title 10, United

        authority for service secretaries to manage authorized 
        officer personnel strength by shortening the period of 
        continuation of service by officers on Active Duty, to 
        authorize involuntary early retirement for certain 
        officers on Active Duty, and to consider officers for 
        involuntary discharge who are not eligible for 
        retirement;
            (c) amend section 1175a(k)(1) of title 10, United 
        States Code to extend through December 31, 2025 
        authority to provide voluntary separation pay and 
        benefits; and
            (d) amend section 1370(a)(2)(F) of title 10, United

      The House recedes.

that would require the Secretaries of the Army and the Air 
Force to carry out a pilot program to improve the ability of 
the Army and Air Force to recruit cyber professionals.
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes with an amendment that would authorize 
the secretaries of the military departments to conduct pilot 
programs to recruit and confer original appointments to 
qualified individuals as commissioned officers in a cyber 
specialty. Pilot programs established under this provision may 
commence on or after January 1, 2017, and shall terminate no 
later than December 31, 2022. Each Secretary of a military 
department who conducts a pilot program under this provision 
shall provide a report to the Committees on Armed Services of 
the Senate and of the House of Representatives, not later than 
January 1, 2020, evaluating the success of the program in 
obtaining skilled cyber personnel for the Armed Forces.
Length of joint duty assignments (sec. 510)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 507) that 
would amend section 664 of title 10, United States Code, to 
modify the qualifying period for joint duty assignments from 3 
years to not less than 2 years. The proposal would repeal the 
average tour length requirement and repeal the authority for 
shorter tour lengths for officers initially assigned to 
critical occupational specialties.
      The House amendment contained a similar provision (sec. 
912).
      The House recedes.

      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes.
Rights and protections available to military technicians (sec. 512)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 523) that 
would amend section 709 of title 32, United States Code, to 
clarify the employment rights and protections of military 
technicians.
      The House amendment contained no such provision.
      The House recedes with an amendment that would clarify 
that military technicians, under certain conditions, may appeal

      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes.
Extension of temporary authority to use Air Force reserve component 
        personnel to provide training and instruction regarding pilot 
        training (sec. 515)
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 512) that 
would amend section 514(a)(1) of the National Defense 
Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2016 (Public Law 114-92) to

                Subtitle C--General Service Authorities

Matters relating to provision of leave for members of the Armed Forces, 
        including prohibition on leave not expressly authorized by law 
        (sec. 521)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 532) that 
would modify section 701 of title 10, United States Code, to 
authorize up to 12 weeks of leave to be allowed in the case of 
a servicemember who is the primary caregiver in the case of the 
birth of a child or the adoption of a child. In the case of 
leave taken following the birth of a child, the availability of 
primary caregiver leave would commence after completion of 
medical convalescent leave resulting from the birth of such 
child. The provision would also increase the amount of 
uncharged leave authorized for a secondary caregiver in the 
case of the birth of a child or the adoption of child. The 
provision would authorize 21 days of uncharged leave for a 
birth parent or an adoptive parent who is the secondary 
caregiver. The provision would repeal subsections of section 
701 relating to spouse and adoption leave as obsolete. The 
provision would require the Secretary of Defense to prescribe 
in regulation definitions of eligible primary and secondary 
caregivers for the purposes of this benefit, and to establish 
regulations for requesting and approving uncharged leave 
associated with births to a military family, and with adoptions 
by a military family, and would allow a military member to 
accept a 1-week extension of a servicemember's military service 
obligation for every week of such leave approved and taken. The 
implementing regulations would authorize the secretary 
concerned to waive service obligation extensions related to 
this leave as an incentive for re-enlistments.
      The provision would also create a new section 704a of 
title 10, United States Code, which would prohibit leave to be 
authorized, granted or assigned, including uncharged leave, 
unless expressly authorized by law. The committee considers 
this provision necessary to clarify that military leave is 
established by law and may not be created without express 
congressional authority.
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 529) that 
would amend chapter 40 of title 10, United States Code, by 
adding a new section 701a which would authorize 14 days of 
leave to a member of the Armed Forces who becomes a parent when 
that member's spouse gives birth. The provision would also 
amend section 701 of title 10, United States Code, to authorize 
36 days of leave, to be shared between two members of the Armed 
Forces who are married to each other and adopt a child.
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 522) that 
would amend section 701(i) of title 10, United States Code, to 
provide one servicemember up to 21 days of leave and another 
servicemember up to 14 days of leave for the adoption of a 
child for dual-military couples of the Armed Forces.
      The House recedes with an amendment that would authorize 
up to 12 weeks of total leave, including up to six weeks of 
medical convalescent leave, to be used by a servicemember who 
is the primary caregiver in connection with the birth of a 
child. The provision would authorize additional medical 
convalescent leave when specifically recommended, in writing, 
by the medical provider of the servicemember to address a 
diagnosed medical condition and when approved by the 
servicemember's commander. The provision would authorize up to 
six weeks of leave for the primary caregiver in the case of the 
adoption of a child, to be used in connection with the 
adoption. The provision would authorize up to 21 days of leave 
for the secondary caregiver in the case of the birth of a child 
or adoption. The provision would require the Secretary of 
Defense to prescribe in regulation definitions of eligible 
primary and secondary caregivers for the purposes of this 
benefit, and to establish regulations for requesting and 
approving uncharged leave associated with births to a military 
family, and with adoptions by a military family, and would 
allow a military member to accept a 1-week extension of a 
servicemember's military service obligation for every week of 
such leave approved and taken. The implementing regulations 
would authorize the secretary concerned to waive service 
obligation extensions related to this leave as an incentive for 
re-enlistments. The provision would also create a new section 
704a of title 10, United States Code, that would prohibit leave 
to be authorized, granted, or assigned, including uncharged 
leave, unless expressly authorized by law.
Transfer of provision relating to expenses incurred in connection with 
        leave canceled due to contingency operations (sec. 522)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 533) that 
would relocate the authority to reimburse members of the Armed 
Forces for expenses incurred in connection with leave cancelled 
due to contingency operations from section 453 of title 37, 
United States Code, to title 10, United States Code.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes.
Expansion of authority to execute certain military instruments (sec. 
        523)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 552) that 
would amend section 1044d of title 10, United States Code, to 
authorize a person authorized to act as a notary under section 
1044a of title 10, United States Code, or a state-licensed 
notary employed by a military department or the Coast Guard, 
who is supervised by a military legal assistance counsel, to 
notarize military testamentary instruments. The provision would 
also amend section 1044a(b) to authorize all civilian 
paralegals serving at military legal assistance offices, 
supervised by a military legal assistance counsel, to act as a 
notary.
      The House amendment contained a similar provision (sec. 
524).
      The House recedes with a technical amendment.
Medical examination before administrative separation for members with 
        post-traumatic stress disorder or traumatic brain injury in 
        connection with sexual assault (sec. 524)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 554) that 
would amend section 1177(a)(1) of title 10, United States Code, 
to require that a member of the Armed Forces who was sexually 
assaulted within 24 months prior to a proposed administrative 
separation under conditions other than honorable, including an 
administrative separation in lieu of court-martial, and who is 
diagnosed with post-traumatic stress disorder or traumatic 
brain injury by a physician, clinical psychologist, 
psychiatrist, licensed clinical social worker, or psychiatric 
advanced practice registered nurse as experiencing post-
traumatic stress disorder or traumatic brain injury or who 
otherwise reasonably alleges, based on the service of the 
member sexually assaulted, the influence of such a condition, 
may not be separated until the results of the medical 
examination have been reviewed by appropriate authorities 
responsible for evaluating, reviewing, and approving the 
separation case, as determined by the Secretary concerned.

reduce the maximum tenure for servicemembers placed on the 
Temporary Disability Retired List (TDRL), due to an injury or 
illness eligible for disability retirement, from 5 years to 3 
years. The committee notes that this provision addresses a 
recommendation from the Government Accountability Office in 
2009 for Congress to shorten the maximum tenure for placement 
on the TDRL.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes.
Technical correction to voluntary separation pay and benefits (sec. 
        526)
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 525) that 
would amend section 1175a of title 10, United States Code, by 
updating the references to section 502(f) of title 32, United 
States Code, and the list of involuntary mobilization 
authorities.
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes.
Consolidation of Army marketing and pilot program on consolidated Army 
        recruiting (sec. 527)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 1092) that 
would require the Secretary of the Army to consolidate within 
the Army Marketing Research Group all functions relating to the 
marketing of the Army and each of the components of the Army in 
order to assure unity of effort and cost effectiveness in the 
marketing of the Army and each of the components of the Army.
      The House amendment contained a related provision (sec. 
527) that would require the Secretary of the Army to establish 
a pilot program to consolidate the recruiting efforts of the 
Regular Army, Army Reserve, and Army National Guard under which 
a recruiter in one of the components participating in the pilot 
program may recruit individuals to enlist in any of the 
components regardless of the funding source of the recruiting 
activity.
      The Senate recedes with a clarifying amendment that would 
combine both provisions.

Subtitle D--Member Whistleblower Protections and Correction of Military 
                                Records

Improvements to whistleblower protection procedures (sec. 531)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 961) that 
would make numerous amendments to section 1034 of title 10, 
United States Code, to clarify and expand the types of adverse 
personnel actions prohibited under the military whistleblower 
protection program, to include retaliatory investigations and 
failures of superiors to respond to retaliatory actions in 
certain circumstances, as prohibited personnel actions 
reviewable under that statute. The provision would also require 
inspectors general (IG) to notify the secretary concerned if, 
during the IG's preliminary investigation, the IG determined 
there were reasonable grounds to believe that a prohibited 
personnel action occurred, and that the action would result in 
an immediate hardship to the service member, and would 
authorize the secretary concerned to take action, as 
appropriate, in such cases. The provision would require an IG 
to provide periodic updates to whistleblowers on the progress 
of investigations, to include an estimate of the time remaining 
until an investigation was complete. Finally, the provision 
would require the Department of Defense Inspector General, 
within 1 year of enactment of this Act, to prescribe uniform 
standards for the conduct of military whistleblower 
investigations and for the training of staffs conducting such 
investigations.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes with a clarifying amendment.
Modification of whistleblower protection authorities to restrict 
        contrary findings of prohibited personnel action by the 
        Secretary concerned (sec. 532)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 962) that 
would amend section 1034 of title 10, United States Code, to 
clarify that when the secretary of the military department 
concerned receives a report from an inspector general that 
substantiates that a prohibited personnel action occurred, the 
secretary may consider whether to take corrective action but 
may not make a determination in such cases that a prohibited 
personnel action did not occur.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes.
Availability of certain correction of military records and discharge 
        review board information through the Internet (sec. 533)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 536) that 
would amend section 1552 of title 10, United States Code, to 
require that a board convened to consider a claim for 
correction of military records by a former servicemember (1) 
who had been deployed in support of contingency operation and 
who was subsequently diagnosed as experiencing post-traumatic 
stress disorder (PTSD) or traumatic brain injury (TBI), or (2) 
who was diagnosed while serving in the military as experiencing 
a mental health disorder include a clinical psychologist or 
psychiatrist, or a physician with training on mental health 
issues connected with PTSD or TBI. The proposal would require 
the military department concerned, or the Department of 
Homeland Security, to make available to the public on an 
Internet website information regarding claims considered by the 
service board for correction of military records in a calendar 
quarter.
      The Senate bill would also modify section 1553 of title 
10, United States Code, to require similar information be made 
available to the public on an Internet website information 
regarding claims considered by the service discharge review 
boards in a calendar quarter.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes with an amendment that would remove the 
requirement that boards for correction of military records 
considering dismissal or discharge of an individual who was 
diagnosed while serving in the military as experiencing a 
mental health disorder include a clinical psychologist or 
psychiatrist, or a physician with training on mental health 
issues connected with PTSD or TBI, and would modify the 
information required to be made available to the public on an 
Internet website.
      The conferees note that section 1552(g) of title 10, 
United States Code, already requires that any medical advisory 
opinion issued with respect to a member or former member of the 
armed forces who was diagnosed while serving in the armed 
forces as experiencing a mental health disorder shall include 
the opinion of a clinical psychologist or psychiatrist if the 
request for correction of records concerned relates to a mental 
health disorder.
Improvements to authorities and procedures for the correction of 
        military records (sec. 534)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 963) that 
would amend section 1552(a) of title 10, United States Code, to 
require that boards for correction of military records (BCMRs) 
notify claimants of what specific information or documents are 
needed to make their claim reviewable by the board, if such 
information or documents are missing, and would require the 
BCMR to make reasonable efforts to obtain missing records when 
they cannot be obtained by a claimant. The provision would 
require the BCMR to consider any request for reconsideration of 
a determination of a BCMR when new information is provided by a 
claimant, not previously considered. The provision would 
reaffirm that claimants may seek judicial review of BCMR 
decisions, and would require BCMRs to publish final decisions 
with personally identifiable information redacted. The 
provision would require each secretary concerned to develop, 
within 1 year of enactment of this Act, a comprehensive 
training curriculum for members of BCMRs, and would require the 
Secretary of Defense and Secretary of Homeland Security to 
ensure such curricula are uniform. Finally, the provision would 
require each secretary concerned to submit to Congress within 
18 months of enactment a report setting forth the training 
curriculum established under this section.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes with an amendment that does not include 
the provision on judicial review of BCMR decisions.
Treatment by discharge review boards of claims asserting post-traumatic 
        stress disorder or traumatic brain injury in connection with 
        combat or sexual trauma as a basis for review of discharge 
        (sec. 535)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 536A) that 
would amend section 1553(d) of title 10, United States Code, to 
require discharge review boards to review medical evidence of 
the Secretary of Veterans Affairs or a civilian health care 
provider presented by a former member of the Armed Forces, and 
to grant liberal consideration to claims by a former member of 
the Armed Forces that post-traumatic stress disorder or 
traumatic brain injury potentially contributed to the 
circumstances resulting in a less favorable characterization of 
discharge. An application for relief that may be reviewed under 
this provision includes matters relating to post-traumatic 
stress disorder or traumatic brain injury related to combat or 
military sexual trauma, as determined by the Secretary 
concerned.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes.
Comptroller General of the United States review of integrity of 
        Department of Defense whistleblower program (sec. 536)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 964) that 
would require the Comptroller General of the United States to 
conduct an assessment of the integrity of the Department of 
Defense (DOD) whistleblower program, to include an assessment 
of the extent to which the DOD whistleblower program meets 
executive branch policies and goals for whistleblower 
protections, the adequacy of procedures to address 
whistleblower complaints submitted by employees of the Office 
of the Inspector General of the Department of Defense (OIG), 
the extent to which there have been violations of 
confidentiality standards, the extent to which there have been 
retaliatory investigations within OIG, the extent to which 
whistleblower complaints against Senate-confirmed civilian 
officials of DOD have been substantiated and reported to 
Congress in the past 10 years, and the ability of the 
inspectors general of DOD and the military services to access 
agency information necessary to the execution of their duties, 
including classified and other sensitive information, and of 
the adequacy of security procedures to safeguard such 
information. The provision would require the Comptroller 
General to report to the Committees on Armed Services of the 
Senate and House of Representatives within 1 year of enactment 
of this Act on the results of this review.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes with an amendment that would require 
the Comptroller General to submit the report within 18 months 
from enactment of this Act.

       Subtitle E--Military Justice and Legal Assistance Matters

United States Court of Appeals for the Armed Forces (sec. 541)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 553) that 
would amend sections 942 and 936 of title 10, United States 
Code (Articles 142 and 136 of the Uniform Code of Military 
Justice) to modify the terms of two civilian judges of the 
United States Court of Appeals for the Armed Forces (``the 
court'') to avoid disruption that may occur to the operations 
of the court when two judicial vacancies occur simultaneously. 
The provision would modify the daily rate of compensation for 
senior judges performing judicial duties with the court so that 
they would be paid the difference between the pay of a judge of 
the court and their federal retired pay, consistent with the 
process employed by the United States Court of Appeals for the 
District of Columbia and the United States Bankruptcy Courts. 
The provision would authorize the judges of the court to 
administer oaths in a similar manner as other federal judges. 
The provision would repeal the provision in article 142(b)(3) 
that precludes more than three judges of the court from being 
from the same political party.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes with technical and clarifying 
amendments.
Effective prosecution and defense in courts-martial and pilot programs 
        on professional military justice development for judge 
        advocates (sec. 542)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 548) that 
would require the service secretaries to carry out a program to 
ensure that trial and defense counsel detailed to prosecute or 
defend a court-martial have sufficient experience and knowledge 
to effectively prosecute or defend the case, or that there is 
adequate supervision and oversight of the trial counsel and the 
defense counsel to ensure effective prosecution and defense in 
the court-martial. The provision would also require service 
secretaries to establish and use a system of skill identifiers 
to identify judge advocates with skill and experience in 
military justice proceedings to identify judge advocates to 
provide supervision and oversight of less experienced judge 
advocates prosecuting and defending in military courts-martial.
      The Senate bill also contained a provision (sec. 549) 
that would require the secretary of each military department to 
conduct a 5 year pilot program to assess the feasibility and 
advisability of a career military justice litigation track for 
judge advocates in the Armed Forces. The pilot programs would 
include a military justice career track that leads to senior 
judge advocates with military justice expertise in prosecuting 
and defending complex cases in military courts-martial. The 
provision would use authority provided elsewhere in this Act to 
suspend limitations on the number of certain senior 
commissioned officers on active duty, under section 532(a) of 
title 10, United States Code. The provision would require the 
use of skill identifiers to identify judge advocates 
participating in the pilot programs. The provision would also 
require promotion boards to give the same opportunity for 
promotion as all other judge advocates being considered for 
promotion. The provision would require the Secretary of Defense 
to submit reports on the pilot programs not later than 4 years 
after the date of enactment of this Act.
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 547) that 
would require the secretary of each military department to 
establish a career military justice litigation track for judge 
advocates. The military justice career litigation track would 
provide for assignment and advancement of qualified judge 
advocates to serve in specified billets in military justice 
trial and defense counsel, as military trial and appellate 
judges, military justice instructors, positions in the criminal 
law offices or divisions of the Armed Forces, Special Victims 
Prosecutors, Victims' Legal Counsel, Special Victims' Counsel, 
and other positions as the secretary of the military department 
shall specify. The provision would prohibit a judge advocate 
participating in the military justice litigation career track 
from serving more than four years of duty outside of the 
litigation track. The provision would prohibit any adverse 
assessment of a judge advocate by reason of participating in 
the litigation track. The provision would require the secretary 
of each military department to implement the career litigation 
track not later than 18 months after enactment. It would 
require a report from the secretaries of the military 
departments to the Committees on Armed Services of the Senate 
and the House of Representatives on the progress in 
implementing the career litigation track.
      The House receded with an amendment that would require 
the service secretaries to establish programs for deliberate 
professional developmental programs to ensure effective 
prosecution and defense in all courts-martial. The amendment 
requires the service secretaries to establish and use a system 
of military justice experience designators or skill 
identifiers. The amendment requires the service secretaries to 
carry out a pilot program to assess the feasibility and 
advisability of establishing a deliberate professional 
development process for judge advocates that leads to military 
justice practitioners capable of prosecuting and defending 
complex cases in military courts-martial. Pilot programs 
established under this provision would be for a period of five 
years. Not later than four years after the date of enactment of 
this Act, the secretaries concerned shall submit a report to 
the Committees on Armed Services of the Senate and of the House 
of Representatives providing a description and assessment of 
the pilot programs and providing such recommendations as the 
secretary considers appropriate.
Inclusion in annual reports on sexual assault prevention and response 
        efforts of the Armed Forces of information on complaints of 
        retaliation in connection with reports of sexual assault in the 
        Armed Forces (sec. 543)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 543) that 
would amend section 1631(b) of the Ike Skelton National Defense 
Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2011 (10 U.S.C. 1561 note) to 
require the annual report on sexual assault and response 
efforts to include information on complaints of retaliation in 
connection with reports of sexual assault in the Armed Forces.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes.
Extension of the requirement for annual report regarding sexual 
        assaults and coordination with release of Family Advocacy 
        Program report (sec. 544)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 551) that 
would amend section 1631 of the Ike Skelton National Defense 
Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2011 (Public Law 111-383) 
that would extend the requirement for the annual report on 
sexual assault in the military under that section through 
February, 2025, and require the reports to be submitted to the 
Committees on Armed Services of the Senate and the House of 
Representatives not later than March 31 each year. The 
provision would also clarify the scope of sexual assaults 
covered by the report to include all reported sexual assaults, 
regardless of the age of the offender or victim or the 
relationship status between the offender and victim, including, 
at a minimum, all sexual assault reports received by the Sexual 
Assault Prevention and Response Program, or equivalent, and the 
Family Advocacy Program, or equivalent, of each Armed Force.
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 542) that 
would extend the requirement for the annual report through 
January 31, 2021. The provision would also require release of 
the report to coincide with the release of the Family Advocacy 
Program report, as required elsewhere in this Act.
      The Senate recedes with an amendment that would establish 
the date by which the annual report would be provided to be not 
later than April 30th.

        respond to retaliation in connection with reports of sexual 
        assault in the Armed Forces (sec. 545)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 544) that 
would require the Sexual Assault Prevention and Response Office 
of the Department of Defense to establish and issue metrics to 
be used by the military departments to evaluate the efforts of 
the Armed Forces to prevent and respond to retaliation in 
connection with reports of sexual assault in the Armed Forces.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes.
Training for Department of Defense personnel who investigate claims of 
        retaliation (sec. 546)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 542) that 
would require the Secretary of Defense to prescribe training to 
individuals in the Department of Defense who investigate claims 
of retaliation on the nature and consequences of retaliation 
and, in cases involving reports of sexual assault, the nature 
and consequences of sexual assault trauma.
      The House amendment contained a similar provision (sec. 
546).
      The House recedes with a clarifying amendment.
Notification to complainants of resolution of investigations into 
        retaliation (sec. 547)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 541) that 
would require the Secretary of Defense to prescribe regulations 
that would require that the results of an investigation of a 
retaliation complaint by a member of the Armed Forces be 
reported to the member who initiated the complaint. The report 
would inform the member whether the complaint was 
substantiated, unsubstantiated, or dismissed. The provision 
would also require the Secretary of Homeland Security to 
prescribe similar regulations to report on retaliation 
complaints by a member of the Coast Guard.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes with an amendment that would require 
that the results of the investigation be reported in writing to 
the member who initiated the complaint.
Modification of definition of sexual harassment for purposes of 
        investigations by commanding officers of complaints of 
        harassment (sec. 548)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 550) that 
would amend section 1561(i) of title 10, United States Code, to 
modify the definition of sexual harassment. The committee is 
concerned that the existing definition of sexual harassment has 
caused the military services to consider sexual harassment as a 
violation of equal opportunity policy instead of an adverse 
behavior that data have demonstrated is on the spectrum of 
behavior that can contribute to an increase in the incidence of 
sexual assault.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes with a technical amendment that would 
clarify that the provision would amend section 1561(e) of title 
10, United States Code.
Improved Department of Defense prevention and response to hazing in the 
        Armed Forces (sec. 549)
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 544) that 
would require the Secretary of Defense to establish a system 
for collection of reports of hazing involving a member of the 
Armed Forces. The provision would also require the secretaries 
of the military departments, in consultation with the Chief of 
Staff of each armed force, to improve training to assist 
members to better recognize, prevent, and respond to hazing. 
The amendment would also require an annual survey on hazing and 
annual reports on hazing that include a description of efforts 
to prevent and respond to hazing incidents, to track and 
encourage reporting hazing incidents, and to ensure consistent 
implementation of anti-hazing policies. The reports required 
under this section would also address elements prescribed for 
anti-hazing reports in section 534 of the national Defense 
Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2013 (P.L. 112-239).
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes with an amendment that would remove 
the requirement that service secretaries conduct an annual 
survey on hazing.
      The conferees are concerned that the extent of hazing 
incidents in the armed forces is not fully known. Therefore, 
the conferees direct that the Department of Defense include 
questions in existing surveys of members of the Armed Forces to 
assist in determining the prevalence of hazing incidents in the 
Armed Forces, to assess the effectiveness of training in 
recognizing and preventing hazing, and to determine the extent 
to which members of the Armed Forces are aware of options to 
report hazing incidents, including anonymous report options.

propensity for military service; (3) the feasibility of 
modifying the military selective service process to obtain for 
military, national, and public service individuals with skills 
for which the Nation has a critical need, without regard to age 
or gender; and (4) the feasibility of including in the military 
selective service process, as so modified, an eligibility for

selective service process, including the means by which to best 
acquire skills to meet the military, national, and public 
service requirements of the country. The provision would 
require these Presidential principles to address: (1) whether, 
in light of the current global security environment, there 
continues to be a need for a selective service process designed 
to produce large quantities of combat troops, and if so, 
whether that system should include mandatory registration by 
citizens and residents regardless of gender; (2) the need, and 
how best to meet the need, of the Nation, the military, the 
Federal civilian sector, and the private sector (including the 
non-profit sector) for individuals possessing certain critical 
skills and abilities, and how to best employ individuals with 
those skills and abilities; (3) how to foster within the 
nation, particularly among the nation's youth, an increased 
sense of service and civic responsibility to enhance the 
acquisition of critically needed skills through education and 
training, and how best to acquire those skills for military, 
national, and public service; (4) how to increase propensity 
among the nation's youth for service in the military, or 
alternatively in national or public service, including how to 
increase the pool of qualified applicants for military service;

security, cyber, linguistics and foreign language, education, 
health care, and the medical professions; and (6) how military 
national, and public service may be incentivized, including 
through educational benefits, grants, Federally-insured loans, 
Federal or State hiring preferences, or other mechanisms the 
President considers appropriate. The provision would require 
certain cabinet officials and other officials or experts to 
transmit to the Commission and Congress recommendations for the 
reform of the military selective service process, and military, 
national, and public service in connection with that process.
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 1071) that 
would preclude the actions of the President, cabinet officials 
and other individuals required to provide recommendations under 
this subtitle, and the Commission on Military, National, and 
Public Service from judicial review of their actions taken 
under this subtitle.
      The House amendment contained no similar provisions.
      The House recedes.

      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 1070) that 
would authorize the National Commission on Military, National, 
and Public Service to appoint, and fix the rate of pay of, an

would repeal section 9337 of title 10, United States Code, that

the Air Force and the other military departments already assign 
chaplains to the service academies under existing service 
personnel assignment procedures.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes.
Extension of limitation on reduction in number of military and civilian

would require the Secretary of Defense to establish electronic 
means for reserve component members to track qualifying 
operational active-duty service that would enable early receipt 
of reserve retired pay under section 12731(f) of title 10, 
United States Code.
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes with an amendment that would require

tracking system, and to provide a report to the Committees on 
Armed Services of the Senate and House of Representatives by no 
later than May 1, 2017.

result of the December 3, 2015, decision by the Secretary to 
open all previously closed military occupations to women.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes.

                   Legislative Provisions Not Adopted

Temporary suspension of officer grade strength tables
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 503) that 
would amend sections 523(a) and 12011(a) of title 10, United 
States Code, to remove the limitations on the total number of 
commissioned officers authorized to serve on Active Duty or on 
full-time reserve component duty in the pay grades of O-4 
through O-6 as of the end of the fiscal year for fiscal years 
2017 through 2021.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes.
      The conferees believe that providing relief from 
statutory caps on the numbers of officers of the active and 
reserve components serving in pay grades from O-4 to O-6, for 
an appropriate trial period, may allow the secretaries of the 
military departments to adjust the shape of their officer corps 
to affect talent management-based promotion systems and more 
quickly adapt to changing war fighting requirements and 
available talent supply. The conferees are concerned that such 
statutory flexibility must be exercised in a manner that would 
promote lean, efficient, and highly effective officer corps and 
must not result in bloated senior officer ranks that impede the 
proper administration of the officer personnel management 
system. Therefore, the conferees modify the reporting 
requirement directed in the Senate report accompanying section 
503 of S. 2943 (S. Rept. 114-255) to require the Secretary of 
Defense to submit a report to the Committees on Armed Services 
of the Senate and the House of Representatives, not later than 
March 1, 2017, describing how the military departments would 
propose to use the authority described in section 503 of the 
Senate-passed bill, a description of the specific categories of 
adjustments in control grades and the number and percentages of 
such adjustments desired, and an assessment of the impact of 
the authority, if implemented, on the desired officer grade 
composition of the military departments. The report shall 
specifically address the proposed use of this authority for 
military intelligence officers, foreign area specialists, judge 
advocates with a military justice skill identifier, and 
officers with expertise in cyber matters.
Enhanced authority for service credit for experience or advanced 
        education upon original appointment as a commissioned officer
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 504) that 
would amend section 533 of title 10, United States Code, to 
authorize service secretaries to credit an applicant for an 
original appointment in a commissioned grade with an amount of 
constructive credit limited to the amount required for an 
original appointment in the grade of colonel in the Army, Air 
Force, or Marine Corps, or in the grade of captain in the Navy. 
The provision would authorize the secretary concerned to award 
constructive credit for leadership experience, professional 
credentials, and technical expertise to directly commission 
officers up to the grade of O-6.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes.
      The conferees note that another provision of this Act 
would authorize the military departments to conduct pilot 
programs to commission cyber professionals. The conferees 
recognize that the use of similar authorities to commission 
professionals such as doctors, lawyers, and chaplains continues 
to have great utility in providing trained professionals for 
the military departments. It may be useful to extend such 
authorities to branches, career fields, and occupational 
specialties that may be designated by the services as having 
technical or warfighter status. The conferees encourage the 
Department of Defense to provide detailed information to the 
Committees on Armed Services of the Senate and of the House of 
Representatives on how the expanded use of such authorities may 
be utilized.
Authority of promotion boards to recommend officers of particular merit 
        be placed at the top of the promotion list
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 505) that 
would amend section 616 of title 10, United States Code, to 
authorize an officer promotion board to recommend Active-Duty 
officers of particular merit to be placed at the top of the 
promotion list.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes.
      The conferees remind the Department of Defense that the 
Joint Explanatory Statement accompanying the National Defense 
Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2016 (P.L. 114-92) identified 
the need to review and modernize procedures to select officers 
for promotion. The Department of Defense was encouraged to 
develop recommendations to enhance the flexibility of selection 
boards to identify and select officers of particular merit for 
early promotion, using procedures that all stakeholders would 
view as objective and fair. Despite the Department's much-
touted Force of the Future studies, the last year saw no 
recommendations to Congress that would provide the flexibility 
the Department claims to need to recruit, commission, promote, 
and retain the high quality all-volunteer force the Nation 
requires.
Limitations on ordering selected reserve to active duty for preplanned 
        missions in support of the combatant commands
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 513) that 
would amend section 12304(b) of title 10, United States Code, 
to authorize the Secretary of Defense to order any unit of the 
Selected Reserve to Active Duty during the year of execution if 
the Secretary identifies manpower and associated costs as an 
emerging requirement in the year of execution and provides a 
30-day notice to the congressional defense committees.
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes.
      The conferees note that the authority to order Selected 
Reserve units to Active Duty under section 12304(b) of title 
10, United States Code, is designed to incentivize deliberate 
planning for the use of the Selective Reserve as part of the 
operational force by requiring missions to be planned in 
advance and included in annual budget submissions. Other 
provisions of title 10, United States Code, provide authority 
to order members and units of the reserve components to Active 
Duty to address emerging requirements arising during the year 
of execution.
Exemption of military technicians (dual status) from civilian employee 
        furloughs
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 514) that 
would amend section 10216(b)(3) of title 10, United States 
Code, to exempt military dual-status technicians from civilian 
employee furloughs.
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes.
Authority to designate certain Reserve officers as not to be considered 
        for selection for promotion
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 522) that 
would amend section 14301 of title 10, United States Code, to 
authorize the secretaries of the military departments to defer 
promotion consideration for reserve component officers in a 
non-participatory (membership points only) status.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes.
Responsibility of Chiefs of Staff of the Armed Forces for standards and 
        qualifications for military specialties within the Armed Forces
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 531) that 
would vest in the Chief of Staff of each of the Armed Forces 
the responsibility for establishing, approving, and modifying 
the criteria, standards, and qualifications for military 
specialty codes within that Armed Force. The Secretary of 
Defense would retain oversight authority.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes.
      The conferees expect service secretaries to consult with 
and receive the advice of the Chiefs of Staff of each of the 
Armed Forces when making decisions on military standards and 
qualifications.
Reconciliation of contradictory provisions relating to qualifications 
        for enlistment in the reserve components of the Armed Forces
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 537) that 
would amend section 12102(b) of title 10, United States Code, 
to align the requirements for enlistment in the reserve 
components of the Armed Forces with the requirements for 
enlistment in the active components.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes.
Burdens of proof applicable to investigations and reviews related to 
        protected communications of members of the armed forces and 
        prohibited retaliatory actions
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 545) that 
would amend section 1034 of title 10, United States Code, to 
establish the burden of proof under this section for military 
retaliation investigations to be the same as the burden of 
proof applicable to retaliation investigations under section 
1221(e) of title 5, United States Code.
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes.
      The conferees included a number of provisions in this Act 
that will provide necessary tools to allow military victims of 
retaliation to be provided full, fair, and expeditious 
investigation and relief, when appropriate, in response to 
alleged retaliation. The conferees are mindful however that the 
requirements, hardships, and sacrifices of military service are 
unique and unlike those of the federal civilian workplace that 
section 1221(e) of title 5 is intended to address. We consider 
the burden of proof standards under section 1221(e) to be 
properly tailored to the federal civilian workforce. However, 
the conferees concluded that the burden of proof standards that 
properly apply in a civilian context are not amenable to the 
unique demands of military service. The conferees remain 
concerned about reports from military personnel who indicate 
they have been subjected to retaliation after making protected 
communications. The conferees intend to remain seized of this 
issue and will assess the impact of the provisions in this bill 
to reducing the prevalence of retaliation in the military.
Discretionary authority for military judges to designate an individual 
        to assume the rights of the victim of an offense under the 
        Uniform Code of Military Justice when the victim is a minor, 
        incompetent, incapacitated, or deceased
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 546) that 
would amend section 806b(c) of title 10, United States Code 
(Article 6b(c), Uniform Code of Military Justice (UCMJ)) to 
authorize military judges to decide on a case-by-case basis 
whether it is appropriate to appoint an individual to assume 
the victim's rights in all cases under the UCMJ in which the 
victim of an offense is under 18 years of age (unless the 
victim is a member of the Armed Forces) or is incompetent, 
incapacitated, or deceased.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes.
      The conferees note that a similar provision is included 
in the Military Justice Act of 2016 which is enacted elsewhere 
in this Act.
Appellate standing of victims in enforcing rights of victims under the 
        Uniform Code of Military Justice
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 547) that 
would amend section 806b of title 10, United States Code 
(article 6b of the Uniform Code of Military Justice (UCMJ)) to 
authorize victims to file pleadings as a real party in interest 
when the Government files appellate pleadings implicating the 
victim's rights relating to Military Rule of Evidence (MRE) 
412, relating to the admission of evidence regarding a victim's 
sexual background; MRE 513, relating to the psychotherapist-
patient privilege; or MRE 514, relating to the victim advocate-
patient privilege. The provision would also amend section 806b 
of title 10, United States Code (article 6b of the UCMJ) to 
afford a victim with the right to reasonable, accurate, and 
timely notice of any appellate matters.
      The House contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes.
      The conferees understand that the Judicial Proceedings 
Panel (JPP) established by section 576 of the National Defense 
Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2013 (Public Law 112-239) 
will receive testimony and address this issue in future public 
meetings of the JPP. The conferees will reconsider this issue 
after receipt of the JPP recommendations.
Limitation on tuition assistance for off-duty training or education
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 561) that 
would amend section 2007 of title 10, United States Code, to 
limit the tuition assistant program for off-duty training and 
education to education programs likely to contribute to the 
professional development of the servicemember.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes.
      The conferees support Department of Defense and military 
service efforts over the past several years to ensure the 
integrity of the tuition assistance program, and the 
educational success of servicemembers utilizing the benefit, 
through implementation of common-sense restrictions on 
premature use by servicemembers still adjusting to military 
life and who are still learning their military occupations, as 
well as restrictions on those who would inappropriately use the 
benefit to acquire additional degrees at the same level of 
attainment.
Establishment of ROTC cyber institutes at senior military colleges
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 562) that 
would amend chapter 103 of title 10, United States Code, to 
authorize the Secretary of Defense to carry out a program to 
establish ROTC Cyber Institutes at the six Senior Military 
Colleges for purposes of accelerating the development of 
foundational expertise in critical cyber operational skills for 
future military and civilian leaders of the Armed Forces and 
Department of Defense, to include such leaders of the Reserve 
Components.
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes.
      The conferees note that many ROTC programs are beginning 
to implement cyber training for critical cyber operational 
skills. The conferees encourage these and other ROTC programs 
to continue building and teaching a cyber framework for future 
military and civilian leaders of the Armed Forces and 
Department of Defense.
Access to Department of Defense installations of institutions of higher 
        education providing certain advising and student support 
        services
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 563) that 
would amend chapter 101 of title 10, United States Code, to 
require the Secretary of Defense to grant access to all 
Department of Defense installations any institution of higher 
education that has a Voluntary Education Partnership Memorandum 
of Understanding with the Department for the purposes of 
student advising and support services.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes.
Employment authority for civilian faculty at certain military 
        department schools
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 564) that 
would amend section 4021 of title 10, United States Code, to 
authorize the Secretary concerned to hire staff for 
professional military education courses regardless of course 
length.
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes.
Revision of name on military service record to reflect change in name 
        of a member of the Army, Navy, Air Force, or Marine Corps, 
        after separation from the Armed Forces
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 565) that 
would amend section 1551 of title 10, United States Code, to 
allow persons who legally change their name to reflect their 
gender identity after separation from the Armed Forces to 
receive a new certificate of discharge or acceptance of 
resignation order under that new name.
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes.
      The conferees note that former service members currently 
have a process to request their name be changed on official 
service discharge documents to reflect a legal name change, by 
submitting a request to the appropriate service board for 
correction of military or naval records. Effective October 1, 
2016, the Department of Defense (DoD) and the Military 
Departments will implement DoD Instruction 1300.28, that 
requires the services to provide servicemembers a process by 
which, while serving, they may change their gender. The 
conferees expect the Department to make the necessary changes 
to regulations to provide former members a simplified process 
to reflect a name change in military personnel records due to 
change in gender identity or other lawful purpose.
Direct employment pilot program for members of the National Guard and 
        Reserve
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 566) that 
would authorize the Secretary of Defense to carry out a pilot 
program to enhance efforts of the Department of Defense to 
provide job placement assistance and related employment 
services directly to members of the National Guard and 
Reserves. This section would also require the Secretary to 
submit a report on the program to the Committees on Armed 
Services of the Senate and the House of Representatives by 
January 31, 2021.
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes.
      The conferees note that the South Carolina and California 
National Guards conduct state employment programs that have 
seen success in recent years and serve as a model for other 
states and territories to set up similar state employment 
programs. The conferees note the numerous employment assistance 
programs for transitioning servicemembers coordinated by the 
military services, the Department of Defense, the Department of 
Labor, and the Department of Veterans Affairs, such as the 
Department of Labor's Veterans' Employment and Training Service 
and the Department of Veterans Affairs' VA for Vets program and 
Feds Hire Vets employment tool. The conferees encourage the 
Chief of the National Guard Bureau to work with the Secretary 
of Defense to coordinate with the Secretary of Labor and the 
Secretary of Veterans Affairs to leverage these preexisting 
Federal employment programs.
Prohibition on establishment, maintenance, or support of Senior Reserve 
        Officers' Training Corps units at educational institutions that 
        display the Confederate battle flag
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 567) that 
would amend section 2102 of title 10, United States Code, to 
prohibit the secretary concerned from establishing, 
maintaining, or supporting a Senior Reserve Officers' Training 
Corps unit at an educational institution that displays the 
Confederate battle flag except where the board of visitors has 
voted to take down the flag described.
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes.
Report on composition of service academies
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 568) that 
would require the Comptroller General of the United States to 
submit a report on the demographic composition of the service 
academies.
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes.
Enhanced flexibility in provision of relocation assistance to members 
        of the Armed Forces and their families
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 576) that 
would amend section 1056 of title 10, United States Code, to 
permit enhanced flexibility in giving relocation assistance to 
members of the Armed Forces and their families. The provision 
would allow the Department of Defense to adapt the delivery of 
relocation assistance to meet the evolving needs of military 
servicemembers and their families by leveraging technology to 
improve access, efficiency, and responsiveness of the 
relocation assistance program, especially in situations where 
servicemembers reside overseas or away from a military 
installation with a relocation assistance program. Finally, the 
provision would establish the position of Program Manager of 
Military Relocation Assistance in the office of the Assistant 
Secretary of Defense for Manpower and Reserve Affairs.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes.
Background checks for employees of agencies and schools providing 
        elementary and secondary education for Department of Defense 
        dependents
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 578) that 
would require certain local educational agencies receiving 
impact aid under subchapter VII of chapter 70 of title 20, 
United States Code, and each Department of Defense (DOD) 
domestic dependent elementary and secondary school, within 2 
years of enactment of this Act, to establish policies and 
procedures requiring a criminal background check for each 
school employee of the agency or school.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes.
      The conferees believe the protection of school children 
from would-be predators is of paramount importance. Children of 
military personnel, who by virtue of a parent's military 
service are more transient with fewer community ties and 
relationships, may be more vulnerable to such predators. The 
conferees believe it is important that appropriate criminal 
background checks be conducted of school employees in 
Department of Defense (DOD) schools and local educational 
activities that educate military family members. Despite the 
requirement in every state that background checks be conducted, 
and recently-enacted prohibitions in the Every Student Succeeds 
Act that restrict the movement and reemployment of predators in 
other states, there were still 496 arrests of school employees 
in the United States last year for sexual misconduct with 
children, according to press reports. Clearly, the problem of 
child predation and abuse remains in our local school systems. 
The conferees note that DOD schools conduct thorough criminal 
background checks on their employees, and the conferees are 
committed to subjecting DOD schools to the oversight required 
to ensure that they conduct thorough criminal background checks 
on their employees. Given the critical importance of this issue 
and the defense authorizing committees' continuing concern that 
children at risk are adequately protected, the conferees 
strongly urge DOD to work as closely as possible with local 
school districts that educate military family members to share 
best practices to help those districts develop and improve 
comprehensive employment screening policies to ensure the 
safety of military children. The conferees direct the 
Department to provide a report to the Committees on Armed 
Services of the Senate and the House of Representatives, not 
later than 1 year after the date of enactment of this Act, on 
the Department's efforts to: 1) identify, to the extent 
practicable, any shortfalls in employee screening processes in 
local school districts educating military family members; and 
2) provide recommendations to help address those shortfalls in 
the future.
Authorization for award of the Medal of Honor to Charles S. Kettles for 
        acts of valor during the Vietnam war
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 586) that 
would waive the time limitations specified in section 3744 of 
title 10, United States Code, to authorize the President to 
award the Medal of Honor to Charles S. Kettles, for acts of 
valor on May 15, 1967, during the Vietnam War, while serving as 
Flight Commander in the United States Army, 176th Aviation 
Company, 14th Aviation Battalion, Task Force Oregon, Republic 
of Vietnam.
      The House amendment contained a similar provision (sec. 
584).
      The conference agreement does not include this provision.
      The conferees note the authority to waive the time 
limitations for award of the Medal of Honor were included in 
the Consolidated Appropriations Act of 2016 (P.L. 114-113). The 
President awarded Mr. Kettles the Medal of Honor in a ceremony 
at the White House on July 18, 2016.
Burial of cremated remains in Arlington National Cemetery of certain 
        persons whose service is deemed to be active service.
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 591) that 
would amend section 2410 of title 38, United States Code, to 
require the Secretary of the Army to ensure that the cremated 
remains of certain individuals whose service has been 
determined to be active duty service are eligible for inurnment 
with military honors in Arlington National Cemetery.
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes.
      The conferees note that on May 20, 2016 the President 
signed into law the Women Airforce Service Pilot Arlington 
Inurnment Restoration Act (P.L. 114-158), which provided the 
authority contained in section 591 of the House amendment.
Applicability of Military Selective Service Act to female citizens and 
        persons
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 591) that 
would amend the Selective Service Act (Public Law 65-12) to 
include women in the requirement to register for selective 
service, to the same extent men are currently required, 
beginning January 1, 2018.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes.
Representation from member of the Armed Forces on boards, councils, and 
        committees making recommendations relating to military 
        personnel issues
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 592) that 
would require that enlisted or retired enlisted members of the 
armed forces be represented on all boards, panels, commissions, 
or task forces established under chapter 7 of title 10, United 
States Code, to render a recommendation on any aspect of 
personnel policy directly affecting enlisted personnel.
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes.
      The conferees believe it is essential that the views of 
enlisted members must be considered by boards charged with 
developing informed and effective military personnel policy. 
The conferees expect that the Secretary of Defense, the 
secretaries of the military departments, the Chairman of the 
Joint Chiefs of Staff, the service chiefs, and their senior 
enlisted advisers will ensure that enlisted representation is 
included in such boards to the maximum extent practicable.
Preseparation counseling regarding options for donating brain tissue at 
        time of death for research
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 594) that 
would require servicemembers to receive information during 
transition separation counseling concerning options for 
donating brain tissue at the time of death of the servicemember 
for chronic traumatic encephalopathy research.
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes.
Recognition of the expanded service opportunities available to female 
        members of the Armed Forces and the long service of women in 
        the Armed Forces
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 595) that 
would express Congress' recognition of women who have served 
and are currently serving in the Armed Forces.
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes.
      The conferees note that female members of the Armed 
Forces are invaluable and integral to the Armed Forces and that 
the United States must continue to encourage and support female 
members of the Armed Forces as they serve our Nation.
Sense of Congress regarding plight of male victims of military sexual 
        assault
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 596) that 
would express the sense of Congress that the Secretary of 
Defense should enhance access to intensive medical and mental 
health treatment of male victims of sexual assault, look for 
opportunities to use male victims as presenters at prevention 
training, and ensure medical and mental health providers are 
trained to meet the needs of male victims.
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes.
      The conferees remain concerned that more must be done to 
address the unique issues and concerns affecting male victims 
of sexual assault. For that reason, section 538 of the National 
Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2016 (P.L. 114-92) 
requires the Secretary of Defense, in collaboration with the 
secretaries of the military departments, to develop a 
comprehensive plan to improve Department of Defense prevention 
and response to sexual assaults in which the victim is a male 
member of the armed forces. The conferees look forward to 
receiving the plan from the Secretary of Defense and intend to 
monitor the efficacy of the plan.
Sense of Congress regarding section 504 of title 10, United States 
        Code, on existing authority of the Department of Defense to 
        enlist individuals, not otherwise eligible for enlistment, 
        whose enlistment is vital to the national interest
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 597) that 
would express the sense of Congress that section 504 of title 
10, United States Code, authorizes the Department of Defense to 
enlist individuals, not otherwise eligible for enlistment, 
whose enlistment is vital to the national interest.
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes.
Protection of Second Amendment rights of military families
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 598) that 
would amend section 921(b) of title 18, United States Code, to 
provide that the residence of the spouse of a military member 
for the purpose of federal firearms laws, is the State of the 
permanent duty station of the member.
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes.
      The conferees note that the residence of a spouse of a 
military member is the State in which that spouse resides, 
which is the State of the permanent duty station of the member, 
or such other State as the spouse may reside.
Pilot program on advanced technology for alcohol abuse prevention
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 599) that 
would require the Secretary of Defense, within 90 days of 
enactment of this Act, to consult with the service secretaries 
and establish a pilot program to demonstrate the feasibility of 
using portable, disposable alcohol breathalyzers and a cloud-
based server platform to collect data and monitor the progress 
of alcohol abuse programs through digital applications. The 
provision would require the Secretary to conduct the pilot 
program for a minimum of 6 months, and the program would 
terminate by September 30, 2018. The Secretary would submit a 
report to the Committees on Armed Services of the Senate and 
the House of Representatives on implementation of the program 
within 120 days after implementation and then submit a final 
report to the committees within 1 year of implementation.
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes.

Armed Forces leaving the military.
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes.

        veterans
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 599D)

Code, to exclude payments regarding reimbursements of medical 
expenses from the determination of annual income with respect 
to pensions.
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes.
Sense of Congress on desirability of service-wide adoption of Gold Star 
        installation access card
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 599E) 
that would express the sense of Congress that the secretaries 
of the military departments and the Secretary of the department 
in which the Coast Guard is operating should work jointly to 
develop, issue, and ensure acceptance of a Gold Star 
installation access card for family members who are the 
survivors of deceased members of the Armed Forces in order to 
expedite the ability of a Gold Star family member to gain 
unescorted access to military installations for the purpose of

        payable to members of the Armed Forces by pay grade for annual 
        or other pay periods (sec. 602)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 602) that 
would direct the Department of Defense to ensure that pay 
tables of basic pay for members of the uniformed services 
published by the Department reflect the operation of the pay 
cap contained in section 203(a)(2) of title 37, United States 
Code, to more accurately reflect the rates of basic pay that 
may actually be received by service members whose basic pay is 
affected by that cap.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes.
Extension of authority to provide temporary increase in rates of basic 
        allowance for housing under certain circumstances (sec. 603)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 603) that 
would extend for 1 year the authority of the Secretary of 
Defense to temporarily increase the rate of basic allowance for 
housing in areas impacted by natural disasters or experiencing 
a sudden influx of personnel.
      The House amendment contained an identical provision 
(sec. 602).
      The conference agreement includes this provision.
Reports on a new single-salary pay system for members of the Armed 
        Forces (sec. 604)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 604) that 
would reform the basic allowance for housing (BAH) benefit for 
members of the uniformed services, applicable January 1, 2018. 
The provision would require a system that utilizes actual costs 
up to a maximum allowable amount. No service member will see a 
change in their allowance until such time as they undergo a 
permanent change of duty station outside their military housing 
area after January 1, 2018.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes with an amendment that would require 
the Department of Defense to report back with revised pay 
tables and a plan to transition to a salary system by no later 
than January 1, 2018. An initial assessment and progress report 
will be due to the Committees on Armed Services of the Senate 
and the House of Representatives no later than March 1, 2017, 
to contain the military pay tables as of January 1, 2017, that 
reflect the Regular Military Compensation of members of the 
Armed Forces as of that date in the range of grades, dependency 
statuses, and assignment locations.
      The conferees note that the BAH, as an entitlement, and 
the perception of BAH among servicemembers, has evolved over 
the past 20 years. BAH, and the iterations of the benefit that 
came before, was intended to provide a housing benefit for 
service members to offset the cost of housing in high cost 
housing areas where adequate government-provided quarters was 
not available and in recognition of the transient nature of 
military service and the impact it has on military members and 
their families. Indeed, that the housing allowance was and is 
intended as primarily a housing benefit is demonstrated by its 
tax-free nature, the differentiation based on dependency 
status, and the fact that junior enlisted personnel required to 
reside in barracks or on a ship are ineligible to receive BAH. 
Accordingly, the conferees direct the Secretary of Defense to 
begin planning for a transition to a salary system that better 
aligns the payment of the allowance with the Department's use 
of the housing allowance as compensation rather than its 
intended purpose as an allowance.

           Subtitle B--Bonuses and Special and Incentive Pays

One-year extension of certain bonus and special pay authorities for 
        reserve forces (sec. 611)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 611) that 
would extend for 1 year the authority to pay the Selected 
Reserve reenlistment bonus, the Selected Reserve affiliation or

certain high-priority units, the Ready Reserve enlistment bonus 
for persons without prior service, the Ready Reserve enlistment 
and reenlistment bonus for persons with prior service, the 
Selected Reserve enlistment and reenlistment bonus for persons 
with prior service, travel expenses for certain inactive-duty 
training, and income replacement for reserve component members 
experiencing extended and frequent mobilization for Active-Duty 
service.

One-year extension of certain bonus and special pay authorities for 
        health care professionals (sec. 612)

accession bonus for registered nurses, incentive special pay 
for nurse anesthetists, special pay for Selected Reserve health 
professionals in critically short wartime specialties, the 
accession bonus for dental officers, the accession bonus for 
pharmacy officers, the accession bonus for medical officers in 
critically short wartime specialties, and the accession bonus 
for dental specialist officers in critically short wartime 
specialties.
      The House amendment contained an identical provision 
(sec. 612).
      The conference agreement includes this provision.
One-year extension of special pay and bonus authorities for nuclear 
        officers (sec. 613)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 613) that 
would extend for 1 year the authority to pay the special pay 
for nuclear-qualified officers extending period of active 
service, the nuclear career accession bonus, and the nuclear 
career annual incentive bonus.
      The House amendment contained an identical provision 
(sec. 613).
      The conference agreement includes this provision.
One-year extension of authorities relating to title 37 consolidated 
        special pay, incentive pay, and bonus authorities (sec. 614)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 614) that 
would extend for 1 year the general bonus authority for 
enlisted members, the general bonus authority for officers, 
special bonus and incentive pay authorities for nuclear 
officers, special aviation incentive pay and bonus authorities 
for officers, and special bonus and incentive pay authorities 
for officers in health professions, and contracting bonus for 
cadets and midshipmen enrolled in the Senior Officers' Training 
Corps. The provision would also extend for 1 year the authority 
to pay hazardous duty pay, assignment or special duty pay, 
skill incentive pay or proficiency bonus, and retention 
incentives for members qualified in critical military skills or 
assigned to high priority units.
      The House amendment contained an identical provision 
(sec. 614).
      The conference agreement includes this provision.
One-year extension of authorities relating to payment of other title 37 
        bonuses and special pays (sec. 615)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 615) that 
would extend for 1 year the authority to pay the aviation 
officer retention bonus, assignment incentive pay, the 
reenlistment bonus for active members, the enlistment bonus, 
precommissioning incentive pay for foreign language 
proficiency, the accession bonus for new officers in critical 
skills, the incentive bonus for conversion to military 
occupational specialty to ease personnel shortage, the 
incentive bonus for transfer between Armed Forces, and the 
accession bonus for officer candidates.
      The House amendment contained an identical provision 
(sec. 615).
      The conference agreement includes this provision.
Aviation incentive pay and bonus matters (sec. 616)
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 616) that 
would amend section 334(c)(1) of title 37, United States Code, 
to increase the statutory limits for the aviation incentive pay 
and retention bonus to $1,000 per month and $60,000 per year, 
respectively, and would allow the Secretary concerned the 
flexibility to increase the aviation incentive pay limit set 
forth in regulations issued by the Secretary of Defense under 
section 374 of title 37, United States Code.
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes with an amendment that would authorize 
a maximum aviation bonus of $35,000 for each 12-month period of 
obligated service, and requires the appropriate Service 
Secretary to submit a justification with each fiscal year's 
budget request for the aviation bonus amounts by aircraft type 
category, the business case supporting the amount requested, 
and a description by the Secretary concerned on how they will 
address manning shortfalls by non-monetary means.
      The conferees note the current Chief of Staff of the Air 
Force stated in response to advance policy questions in 
preparation for his confirmation hearing, ``We will tailor any 
potential bonus based upon specific platform and overall Air 
Force requirements. The requested increase is not a set amount. 
If approved, this will give us the flexibility to tailor bonus 
amounts and contract terms by platform.'' The conferees 
strongly agree with targeting aviation bonuses toward the most 
critical manning shortfalls by aircraft type category as a way 
to incentivize retention behavior, and strongly support this 
method for use across the Department of Defense.
      The conferees also expect the Services to continue 
developing and implementing policies to tackle non-monetary 
reasons for low aviator retention rates, and to use these 
incentive and bonus authorities to incentivize needed retention 
levels using a business case rather than as a reward or 
entitlement, to correct both the undermanning of certain 
aircraft type categories and the overmanning of others.
Conforming amendment to consolidation of special pay, incentive pay, 
        and bonus authorities (sec. 617)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 616) that 
would amend section 332 of title 10, United States Code, to 
correct an inequity that will exist when the Department 
transitions to a general bonus authority on October 1, 2017. 
This amendment will increase the maximum bonus authority under 
the new general bonus authority to $20,000 to match the maximum 
bonus level under the old authority. Maintaining the current 
bonus level will enable the Services to retain the ability to 
recruit and retain reserve component officers.
      The House amendment contained an identical provision 
(sec. 617).
      The conference agreement includes this provision.
Technical amendments relating to 2008 consolidation of certain special 
        pay authorities (sec. 618)
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 618) that 
would make technical and clerical corrections to titles 10, 20, 
24, 36, 37, and 42, United States Code, as well as section 586 
of the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2008 
(Public Law 110-181), section 362 of the John Warner National 
Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2007 (Public Law 109-
364), and section 112(c)(5)(B) of the Internal Revenue Code of 
1986, as part of the Department of Defense's transition to the 
consolidated authorities in sections 661 and 662 of the 
National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2008 (Public 
Law 110-181), which consolidated statutory special and 
incentive pay authorities for members of the uniformed 
services. This section is consistent with the purpose and 
intent of the consolidated special and incentive pay reform 
contained in the 2008 defense bill.
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes.

            Subtitle C--Travel and Transportation Allowances

Maximum reimbursement amount for travel expenses of members of the 
        Reserves attending inactive duty training outside of normal 
        commuting distances (sec. 621)
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 641) that 
would amend section 478a(c) of title 37, United States Code, to 
allow for a higher reimbursement amount on a case-by-case basis 
for certain members of the Reserve component traveling to 
attend inactive duty training outside of normal committing 
distances.
      The Senate bill contained a similar provision (sec. 621).
      The Senate recedes.

     Subtitle D--Disability Pay, Retired Pay, and Survivor Benefits

        Part I--Amendments in Connection With Retired Pay Reform

Election period for members in the service academies and inactive 
        Reserves to participate in the modernized retirement system 
        (sec. 631)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 631) that 
would amend section 1409 of title 10, United States Code, to 
clarify the timing for cadets and midshipmen at the service 
academies to opt-in to the new military retirement system 
enacted in the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal 
Year 2016 (Public Law 114-92). The provision would also clarify 
the timing of such elections for reservists who are on Inactive 
Duty during the election period otherwise provided for under 
the new retirement system.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes.
Effect of separation of members from the uniformed services on 
        participation in the Thrift Savings Plan (sec. 632)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 632) that 
would repeal paragraph (2) of section 632(c) of the National 
Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2016 (Public Law 114-
92). This amendment makes a technical correction for the new 
military retirement plan enacted in that Act relative to 
defining separation from service under the Thrift Savings Plan.
      The House amendment contained a similar provision (sec. 
621).
      The House recedes.
Continuation pay for full Thrift Savings Plan members who have 
        completed 8 to 12 years of service (sec. 633)
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 622) that 
would amend section 356 of title 37, United States Code, to 
modify the continuation pay for members under the new military 
retirement system enacted in the National Defense Authorization 
Act for Fiscal Year 2016 (Public Law 114-92) to provide the 
Secretary of Defense with the flexibility to offer continuation 
pay in the window between 8 and 12 years of service in exchange 
for a 3 years of service or greater commitment as the Secretary 
deems appropriate for retention.
      The Senate bill contained a similar provision (sec. 633).
      The Senate recedes with a technical amendment.
Combat-related special compensation coordinating amendment (sec. 634)
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 619) that 
would amend section 1413a of title 10, United States Code, to 
make a technical and conforming amendment to Combat-Related 
Special Compensation, to bring that authority in line with the 
new military retirement system enacted in the National Defense 
Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2016 (Public Law 114-92).
      The Senate bill contained a similar provision (sec. 634).
      The House recedes.

                         Part II--Other Matters

Use of member's current pay grade and years of service and retired pay 
        cost-of-living adjustments, rather than final retirement pay 
        grade and years of service, in a division of property involving 
        disposable retired pay (sec. 641)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 642) that 
would amend section 1408 of title 10, United States Code, to 
modify the division of military retired pay in a divorce decree 
to the amount the member would be entitled based upon the 
member's pay grade and years of service at the time of the 
divorce rather than at the time of retirement with the spousal 
share of the retired pay computed on the retired pay as 
adjusted by the annual increases in military pay.
      The House amendment contained a similar provision (sec. 
625) that would amend section 1408 of title 10, United States 
Code, to modify the division of military retired pay in a 
divorce decree to the amount the member would be entitled based 
upon the member's pay grade and years of service at the time of 
the divorce.
      The House recedes with an amendment that would modify the 
division of military retired pay in a divorce decree to the 
amount the member would be entitled based upon the member's pay 
grade and years of service at the time of the divorce as 
adjusted by the annual retired pay cost-of-living adjustments 
between the date of the divorce decree and the date of 
retirement. The conferees note that this provision is 
prospective only and would not affect existing divorce 
settlements.
Equal benefits under Survivor Benefit Plan for survivors of reserve 
        component members who die in the line of duty during inactive-
        duty training (sec. 642)
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 624) that 
would amend section 1451(c)(1)(A) of title 10, United States 
Code, to eliminate the different treatment under the Survivor 
Benefit Plan accorded members of the reserve component who die 
from an injury or illness incurred or aggravated in the line of 
duty during inactive-duty training, as compared to the 
treatment of members of the Armed Forces who die in the line of 
duty while on Active Duty.
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes.
Authority to deduct Survivor Benefit Plan premiums from combat-related 
        special compensation when retired pay not sufficient (sec. 643)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 644) that 
would amend section 1452 of title 10, United States Code, to 
authorize the deduction of Survivor Benefit Plan (SBP) premiums 
from monthly combat related special compensation (CRSC) when 
retired pay is insufficient to cover the premiums.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes.
Extension of allowance covering monthly premium for Servicemembers' 
        Group Life Insurance while in certain overseas areas to cover 
        members in any combat zone or overseas direct support area 
        (sec. 644)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 641) that 
would amend section 437 of title 37, United States Code, to 
expand the areas eligible for the allowance for covering 
monthly premiums for the Servicemembers' Group Life Insurance 
to include any designated combat zone or an area directly 
supporting a designated combat zone.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes.
Authority for payment of pay and allowances and retired and retainer 
        pay pursuant to power of attorney (sec. 645)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 672) that 
would amend section 602 of title 37, United States Code, to 
authorize payment of certain pay and allowances of a 
servicemember or retired servicemember to an individual to whom 
the member has granted authority to manage these funds pursuant 
to a valid and legally executed durable power of attorney. This 
proposal would enable members to responsibly and proactively 
plan their personal affairs in the event of their 
incapacitation, and to allow those durable powers of attorney 
to be recognized by the military departments and the Department 
of Defense.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes.
Extension of authority to pay special survivor indemnity allowance 
        under Survivor Benefit Plan (sec. 646)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 643) that 
would amend section 1450 of title 10, United States Code, to 
permanently extend the authority to pay the Special Survivor 
Indemnity Allowance (SSIA).
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 623) that 
would extend the authority to pay the SSIA for one year.
      The Senate recedes with an amendment that would extend 
the authority to pay the SSIA until May 31, 2018.
Repeal of obsolete authority for combat-related injury rehabilitation 
        pay (sec. 647)

      The House recedes.

   Subtitle E--Commissary and Non-Appropriated Fund Instrumentality 
                        Benefits and Operations

Protection and enhancement of access to and savings at commissaries and 
        exchanges (sec. 661)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 661) that 
would amend sections 2481, 2483, 2484, and 2487 of title 10, 
United States Code, to require the Secretary of Defense to 
develop and implement a comprehensive strategy to optimize 
management practices across the defense commissary system and 
the exchange system that reduces their reliance on appropriated 
funding without reducing benefits to commissary patrons or 
revenues generated by non-appropriated fund entities. This 
provision would authorize the Secretary to carry out an 
alternative pricing program, evaluated against specific, 
measurable benchmarks and a documented baseline level of 
savings, within the defense commissary system to establish 
prices for goods and services in response to market conditions 
and customer demand. Furthermore, the provision would authorize 
the Secretary to convert the commissary system to a non-
appropriated fund entity or instrumentality if the Secretary 
determines that the alternative pricing program met established 
benchmarks for success for a period of at least 6 months. If 
conversion to a non-appropriated fund entity or instrumentality 
occurs, the Secretary would ensure that no employee of the 
defense commissary system, as of the date of enactment of this 
Act, would incur a loss or decrease in pay resulting from the 
conversion. This provision would also authorize the Secretary 
of Defense to establish common business processes, practices, 
and systems to optimize the operations of the entire defense 
resale system, including authorizing the use of appropriated 
and non-appropriated funds on contracts or agreements for the 
acquisition of common systems. Finally, the provision would 
authorize the Secretary to supplement appropriated funds for 
defense commissary system operations with additional funds 
derived from improved management practices and the alternative 
pricing program.
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 631) that 
would amend sections 2481(a) and (c), 2483(c), 2484, 2485, and 
2487 of title 10, United States Code, to authorize the 
Secretary of Defense to develop and implement a comprehensive 
strategy to: 1) optimize practices across the commissary and 
exchange systems to reduce the reliance of those systems on 
appropriated funds without reducing benefits to patrons or any 
revenues generated by non-appropriated fund entities or 
instrumentalities of the Department for the morale, welfare, 
and recreation of servicemembers; 2) authorize use of 
additional funds derived from improved management practices to 
supplement appropriated funds for commissary operations; 3) 
authorize a variable pricing program whereby commissary prices 
may be established in response to market conditions and 
customer demand; 4) authorize conversion of the commissary 
system to a non-appropriated fund entity or instrumentality if 
the Secretary determines that the variable pricing program 
meets established benchmarks for success for a period of at 
least 6 months; and 5) authorize the Secretary to contract with 
an entity to obtain expert commercial advice, assistance, or 
other services not otherwise carried out by the Defense 
Commissary Agency.
      The Senate recedes.
      The conferees believe this provision will significantly 
improve the business operations of the commissary system and 
lead to greater efficiency in the delivery of high quality 
grocery products and services to commissary patrons without 
diminishing the current level of patron savings. The conferees 
remain concerned, however, that the current senior management 
of the Defense Commissary Agency may lack the necessary talent 
and skills to transform the commissary system into an 
efficient, high-performing purveyor of grocery products and 
services. The conferees strongly urge the Department to engage 
experts in the commercial grocery industry to assist the 
Defense Commissary Agency in the transformation of the 
commissary system into a high-performing grocery operation.
Acceptance of Military Star Card at commissaries (sec. 662)
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 632) that 
would require the Secretary of Defense to ensure that 
commissary stores accept the Military Star Card as payment for 
goods and services. Under this provision, the Army and Air 
Force Exchange Service would assume any financial liability of 
the United States relating to acceptance of the Military Star 
Card as payment for goods and services at commissary stores.
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes.

                       Subtitle F--Other Matters

Recovery of amounts owed to the United States by members of the 
        uniformed services (sec. 671)
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 642) that 
would amend section 1007(c)(3) of title 37, United States Code, 
to establish a 10-year statute of limitations on the authority 
of the government to collect an indebtedness to the government 
owed by a servicemember if the indebtedness occurred through no 
fault of the member. The statute of limitations established 
under this provision would apply to indebtedness incurred on or 
after October 1, 2027. The provision would require the Director 
of the Defense Finance and Accounting Service to provide an 
annual report, commencing on January 1, 2017 and each year 
through 2027, on cases in which recovery of indebtedness 
commenced after the end of the 10-year period beginning on the 
date when the indebtedness was incurred, or in which the member 
was not notified of the indebtedness during such 10-year 
period.
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes with an amendment that would direct 
the Secretary of Defense to conduct a review of all bonus pays, 
special pays, student loan repayments, and similar special 
payments paid to members of the California National Guard 
between January 1, 2004 and December 31, 2015. The review is 
required to be completed by July 30, 2017. The provision 
requires a board of review designated by the Secretary of 
Defense to determine whether the special pay to these members 
and former members was unwarranted and, if so, to recommend to 
the Secretary concerned whether to recoup the payment, waive 
the recoupment, or in the case of recoupments that were 
previously collected but were unwarranted by the evidence, to 
recommend whether the payments should be repaid to the member 
or former member. The provision would authorize the Secretary 
concerned to waive collection of overpayments or to repay 
previously recouped payments that were unwarranted. The 
provision would require the Secretary concerned to notify 
consumer credit reporting agencies if the review determines 
that an indebtedness previously reported to the credit 
reporting agency was invalid. The funding for activities 
associated with the review, including repayments to members and 
former members, shall be paid from amounts available for the 
National Guard of the United States for the State of 
California. The provision requires the Secretary of Defense to 
submit a report on the results of the review to the Committees 
on Armed Services of the Senate and of the House of 
Representatives not later than August 1, 2017. The provision 
also requires the Comptroller General of the United States to 
report, not later than one year after the date of enactment of 
this Act, on the actions of the National Guard of the State of 
California related to the bonus pays, special pays, student 
loan repayments, and other special pays from 2004 through 2015.
Modification of flat rate per diem requirement for personnel on long-
        term temporary duty assignments (sec. 672)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 1151) that 
would require the Secretary of Defense to take such action as 
may be necessary to provide that, to the extent that 
regulations implementing travel and transportation authorities 
for military and civilian personnel of the Department of 
Defense impose a flat rate per diem for meals and incidental 
expenses for authorized travelers on long term temporary duty 
(TDY) assignments that is at a reduced rate compared to the per 
diem rate otherwise applicable, the Service Secretary concerned 
may waive the applicability of such reduced rate and pay such 
travelers actual expenses up to the full per diem rate for such 
travel in any case when the Secretary concerned determines that 
the reduced flat rate per diem for meals and incidental 
expenses is not sufficient under the circumstances of the TDY 
assignment.
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 603) that 
would prohibit the Secretary concerned from altering the per 
diem allowance for the duration of a temporary duty assignment 
of a member of the Armed Forces or an employee of the 
Department of Defense.
      The House recedes with a clarifying amendment.

                   Legislative Provisions Not Adopted

Sense of the Congress on Roth contributions as default contributions of 
        members of the Armed Forces participating in the Thrift Savings 
        Plan under retired pay reform
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 635) that 
would state the sense of the Congress that the Department of 
Defense should explore making the default contributions of a 
full Thrift Savings Plan member under the new military 
retirement plan enacted in the National Defense Authorization 
Act for Fiscal Year 2016 (Public Law 114-92) to be designated 
as Roth contributions until the member elects not to designate 
such contributions as Roth contributions.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes.
Sense of the Congress on options for members of the Armed Forces to 
        designate payment of the death gratuity to a trust for a 
        special needs individual
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 645) that 
would express the Sense of the Congress that the Department of 
Defense should explore options to allow servicemembers to 
designate that, upon their death, the death gratuity may be 
paid to a trust that is legally established under any federal, 
state, or territorial law.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes.
Period for relocation of spouses and dependents of certain members of 
        the Armed Forces undergoing a permanent change of station
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 622) that 
would add a new section 1784b of title 10, United States Code, 
to provide greater flexibility for families to determine the 
sequencing of permanent change of station moves under certain 
circumstances.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes.
      The conferees direct the Secretary of Defense to submit a 
report to the Committees on Armed Services of the Senate and 
the House of Representatives no later than six months after the 
date of enactment of this Act on actions taken by the 
Department of Defense to enhance the stability of military 
families undergoing a permanent change of station (PCS). The 
report shall include an analysis of the current extent of 
family disruption associated with PCS moves of members of the 
Armed Forces, a description of the actions taken by the 
Department of Defense to minimize such disruptions, and further 
actions recommended by the Secretary of Defense to alleviate 
family disruption associated with a PCS move.

                   Title VII--Health Care Provisions

        Subtitle A--Reform of Tricare and Military Health System

TRICARE Select and other TRICARE Reform (sec. 701)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 701) that 
would amend chapter 55 of title 10, United States Code, to 
reform health care plans available under the TRICARE program. 
The provision would establish three health plan choices for 
families of Active-Duty servicemembers, and retired military 
members and their families: 1) TRICARE Prime, a managed care 
option; 2) TRICARE Choice, a self-managed option; and 3) 
TRICARE Supplemental, an option for retired members and their 
families, other than TRICARE-For-Life beneficiaries, who have 
other health insurance. Beneficiaries would be required to 
enroll in one of the TRICARE options during an annual open 
enrollment period in order to obtain care through the TRICARE 
Program.
      Under this provision, the Department would offer TRICARE 
Prime in areas near military treatment facilities (MTFs). 
Active-Duty family members would be authorized to enroll in 
TRICARE Prime, and there would be no cost shares. Retirees and 
their family members would be authorized to enroll in TRICARE 
Prime in areas where an MTF has a significant number of health 
care providers, including specialty providers, and sufficient 
capability to support efficient operations of the MTF. A 
TRICARE Prime enrollee would be required to obtain a referral 
for care from a designated primary care manager prior to 
obtaining care under the TRICARE program. A referral to network 
providers for specialty care services would not require a 
beneficiary to obtain a pre-authorization. The provision would 
require the Secretary to ensure that beneficiaries have the 
same level of access to care within timelines that meet or 
exceed those of high-performing health systems in the private 
sector. The provision would establish TRICARE Choice in other 
locations in the country, and beneficiaries may receive care 
from any health care provider selected by the member subject to 
any restrictions established by the Secretary.
      This provision would include a cost-share table for 
calendar year 2018 for both TRICARE Prime and TRICARE Choice 
that would establish rates for annual enrollment fees, annual 
deductibles, annual catastrophic caps, and co-payments for 
inpatient visits, outpatient visits, and other services. The 
provision would gradually increase the annual enrollment fee 
for military retirees and their families under TRICARE Choice 
over a period of 5 years through 2023. Subsequently, annual 
enrollment fees for military retirees and their families in 
TRICARE Choice after 2023, and for military retirees and their 
families under TRICARE Prime after 2018, would increase by the 
annual percent of the Consumer Price Index for Health Care 
Services, published by the Bureau of Labor Statistics. 
Additionally, the provision would increase the deductible, co-
payment, and annual catastrophic cap amounts after 2018, by the 
annual cost of living adjustment for military retired pay. The 
provision would authorize the Secretary to adopt special 
coverage and reimbursement methods, amounts, and procedures to 
encourage the use of high-value services and products and to 
discourage the use of low-value services and products.
      Under this provision, retirees and their family members 
with other health insurance would be authorized to enroll in 
the TRICARE Supplemental option. The provision would establish 
an annual enrollment fee that would be one-half of the fee for 
the TRICARE Choice option. Under TRICARE Supplemental, TRICARE 
would pay the deductible and co-payment amounts under the 
beneficiary's primary health plan, not to exceed the amount 
TRICARE would have paid as primary payer to an out-of-network 
provider.
      A number of existing TRICARE programs would remain 
unchanged under this provision: 1) Extended Health Care Option 
Program; 2) TRICARE Reserve Select; 3) TRICARE Retired Reserve; 
4) TRICARE Dental Program; and 5) the Continued Health Care 
Benefits Program. This provision would not affect the required 
cost-shares under the TRICARE Pharmacy Benefits Program, but 
the annual enrollment fee, annual deductible, and annual 
catastrophic cap established in this section would apply to the 
pharmacy program. With this provision, the cost-share 
requirements for remote area dependents would be the same as 
those established under the TRICARE Prime Option but without a 
referral requirement.
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 701) that 
would amend chapter 55 of title 10, United States Code, to 
establish TRICARE Preferred as the self-managed, preferred 
provider option in the TRICARE program, replacing TRICARE 
Standard and Extra. The provision would establish annual 
enrollment fees and fixed dollar co-payments for Active-Duty 
family members and retirees who join the Armed Services on or 
after January 1, 2018, and enroll in TRICARE Preferred or 
TRICARE Prime, the managed care option. In addition, the 
provision would authorize an annual enrollment fee for TRICARE 
Preferred for beneficiaries who were in either the Active-Duty 
or retired beneficiary categories prior to January 1, 2018. 
However, the provision would prohibit the Secretary from 
establishing this annual enrollment fee until 90 days after the 
Comptroller General of the United States submits a report, not 
later than February 1, 2020, to the Committees on Armed 
Services of the Senate and the House of Representatives on 
access to care, network adequacy, and beneficiary satisfaction 
under TRICARE Preferred. The provision would also require the 
Comptroller General, not later than September 1, 2017, to 
submit to the committees a report on the assessment of network 
adequacy and beneficiaries' access to care under the TRICARE 
health care provider network. Finally, the provision would 
require the Secretary to submit an implementation plan, not 
later than June 1, 2017, to the committees to improve access 
for TRICARE beneficiaries. The Comptroller General would be 
required to submit to the committees, not later than December 
1, 2017, a review of the implementation plan submitted by the 
Secretary.
      The Senate recedes with an amendment that would: 1) 
rename the TRICARE Preferred health plan option to TRICARE 
Select; 2) modify the tables prescribing enrollment fees, 
deductibles, catastrophic caps, and co-payments for 
beneficiaries in the retired category who join the military on 
or after January 1, 2018, and to establish a calendar year 
enrollment period for those fees; 3) require the Secretary to 
establish an open enrollment period, with a grace period during 
the first year of open enrollment, and to allow enrollment for 
qualifying events for annual participation in either TRICARE 
Prime or TRICARE Select; 4) prescribe certain requirements for 
pre-authorization for referrals under TRICARE Prime; and 5) 
require a pilot program on incorporation of value-based health 
care methodology in the purchased care component of the TRICARE 
program.
Reform of administration of the Defense Health Agency and military 
        medical treatment facilities (sec. 702)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 721) that 
would require the Secretary of Defense to disestablish the 
medical departments of the Armed Forces and consolidate all 
activities of those departments into the Defense Health Agency. 
The Secretary could not undertake this action until 60 days 
after submission of the Department's consolidation plan to the 
Committees on Armed Services of the Senate and the House of 
Representatives. The provision would also require the 
Comptroller General of the United States to review the 
consolidation plan and submit that review to the Committees on 
Armed Services of the Senate and the House of Representatives 
within 180 days after the Secretary submits the plan to the 
committees. Under this provision, the Defense Health Agency 
would be led by an officer of the Armed Forces holding the 
grade of lieutenant general or vice admiral and be responsible 
for the medical operations of the Department of Defense. The 
resultant Defense Health Agency would consist of four 
subordinate organizations: 1) an organization responsible for 
all military medical treatment facilities (MTFs); 2) an 
organization responsible for medical professional recruitment 
and retention activities, medical education and training, 
research and development activities, and executive agencies for 
medical operations or activities; 3) an organization 
responsible for activities and duties of the current Defense 
Health Agency; and 4) an organization responsible for 
activities and duties to improve and maintain operational 
medical force readiness capabilities and to ensure sustainment 
of combat casualty care and trauma readiness of military health 
care providers. A major general or rear admiral upper half 
would serve as head of each subordinate organization. The 
provision would give broad authorities to the Director of the 
Defense Health Agency, under the supervision and control of the 
Assistant Secretary of Defense for Health Affairs, to conduct 
the medical operations functions of the Department. In 
addition, the provision would amend sections 3036, 5137, and 
8036 of title 10, United States Code, to establish the duties 
and responsibilities of the Surgeons General of the Services as 
principal adviser to the service secretary and service chief as 
well as chief medical adviser of that service to the Defense 
Health Agency. Finally, the provision would require the 
Secretary of Defense to submit a report on consolidation, by 
January 1, 2017, to the Committees on Armed Services of the 
Senate and the House of Representatives.
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 702) that 
would amend chapter 55 of title 10, United States Code, to 
require the Defense Health Agency to become responsible for 
management of MTFs throughout the Department of Defense, while 
preserving the responsibility of MTF commanders for ensuring 
the readiness of members of the Armed Forces and civilian 
employees at MTFs and for providing health care services at 
MTFs. In carrying out this provision, the Defense Health Agency 
would establish an executive-level management office consisting 
of professional health care administrators to manage health 
care operations, finance and budget, information technology, 
and medical affairs across all MTFs. This provision would 
direct the Secretary of Defense to submit an interim report to 
the congressional defense committees by March 1, 2017, on the 
preliminary plan to implement these changes, and a final report 
by March 1, 2018. Finally, this provision would require the 
Comptroller General of the United States to review each of the 
Department's plans and to submit an assessment of those plans 
to the congressional defense committees by September 1, 2017, 
and September 1, 2018, respectively.
      The Senate recedes with an amendment that would require 
the Director of the Defense Health Agency, beginning October 1, 
2018, to take responsibility for the administration of each 
MTF, including all matters with respect to: 1) budget; 2) 
information technology; 3) health care administration and 
management; 4) administrative policy and procedure; 5) military 
medical construction and 6) any other matters the Secretary 
determines appropriate. The amendment would require the 
establishment of a professional staff within the Defense Health 
Agency to provide policy, oversight, and direction of all 
matters related to the administration of MTFs. In addition, the 
amendment would codify the roles and responsibilities of the 
Services' Surgeons General. The amendment would require the 
Secretary to develop an implementation plan and to submit: 1) 
an interim report providing a preliminary draft of the plan to 
the Committees on Armed Services of the Senate and the House of 
Representatives by March 1, 2017; and 2) a final report to the 
committees by March 1, 2018, containing a final version of the 
plan. Finally, the amendment would require the Comptroller 
General of the United States to submit to the committees a 
review of the Department's preliminary draft of the plan by 
September 1, 2017, and a review of the final version of the 
plan by September 1, 2018.
      After careful study and deliberation, the conferees 
conclude that a single agency responsible for the 
administration of all MTFs would best improve and sustain 
operational medical force readiness and the medical readiness 
of the Armed Forces, improve beneficiaries' access to care and 
the experience of care, improve health outcomes, and lower the 
total management cost of the military health system. The 
conferees believe that the current organizational structure of 
the military health system--essentially three separate health 
systems each managed by one of the three Services--paralyzes 
rapid decision-making and stifles innovation in producing a 
modern health care delivery system that would better serve all 
beneficiaries. A streamlined military health system management 
structure would eliminate redundancy and generate greater 
efficiency, yielding monetary savings to the Department while 
leading to true reform of the military health system and 
improving the experience of care for beneficiaries.
Military medical treatment facilities (sec. 703)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 725) that 
would authorize the secretary of a military department to 
realign the infrastructure of or modify the health care 
services provided by a military treatment facility (MTF) if a 
realignment or modification would better: 1) ensure the 
delivery of safe, high quality health care services; 2) adapt 
the delivery of health care in a facility to rapid changes in 
private sector health care delivery models; or 3) maintain the 
medical force readiness skills and core competencies of health 
care providers in a facility. Before taking any action under 
this provision, the Secretary of Defense would be required to 
submit a report to the Committees on Armed Services of the 
Senate and the House of Representatives on proposed 
realignments of infrastructure or modifications of health care 
services at MTFs. Within 60 days after the Secretary submits a 
report under this provision, the Comptroller General of the 
United States would submit a review of such report to the 
Committees on Armed Services of the Senate and the House of 
Representatives.
      The Senate bill also contained a provision (sec. 729) 
that would require the Secretary of Defense to establish 
regional centers of excellence for the provision of specialty 
care to covered beneficiaries at major medical centers of the 
Department of Defense. The provision would authorize the 
Secretary to establish satellite centers, when and where 
appropriate, particularly to provide specialty care for post-
traumatic stress and traumatic brain injury. Furthermore, the 
provision would specify the types of centers of excellence that 
the Secretary could establish while allowing for the 
establishment of additional centers when appropriate. The 
centers of excellence established under this provision would 
serve as the primary sources for specialty care within the 
direct care health system, and health care providers throughout 
the system would refer beneficiaries to those facilities. The 
provision would require the Secretary to submit a report to the 
Committees on Armed Services of the Senate and the House of 
Representatives, within 180 days of the date of enactment of 
this Act, which provides a plan to establish specialty care 
centers of excellence in the military health system.
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 703) that 
would amend chapter 55 of title 10, United States Code, to 
establish the requirements for the types of MTFs needed to 
support the medical readiness of the Armed Forces and the 
readiness of medical personnel. The provision would require the 
Secretary of Defense, in collaboration with the secretaries of 
the military departments, to submit an updated Military Health 
System Modernization Study report to the congressional defense 
committees within 270 days after the date of enactment of this 
Act. In addition, the provision would require the Secretary to 
submit, within 2 years after the date of enactment of this Act, 
an implementation plan to restructure or realign the MTFs in 
accordance with section 1079d of title 10, United States Code.
      The Senate recedes with an amendment that would combine 
these provisions.
Access to urgent and primary care under TRICARE program (sec. 704)
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 704) that 
would amend chapter 55 of title 10, United States Code, to 
require the Secretary of Defense, within 1 year of the date of 
enactment of this Act, to improve access to urgent care 
services in both military medical treatment facilities (MTFs) 
and the private sector. The provision would ensure that covered 
beneficiaries have access to urgent care services through the 
health care provider network under the TRICARE program, without 
the need for preauthorization, in areas where no MTFs exist for 
those services. Finally, this provision would require the 
Secretary of Defense to ensure that the nurse advice line of 
the Department directs covered beneficiaries seeking access to 
health care services to the most appropriate level of care 
required to treat medical conditions of beneficiaries, 
including urgent care services.
      The House amendment also contained a provision (sec. 705) 
that would amend section 1077a of title 10, United States Code, 
to require the Secretary of Defense, within 180 days of the 
date of enactment of this Act, to ensure the availability of 
primary care services for members of the Armed Forces and 
covered beneficiaries during expanded business hours on 
weekdays and weekends, based on the needs of the MTF to meet 
access standards under the TRICARE Prime program and the 
primary care utilization patterns at the MTF.
      The Senate bill contained no similar provisions.
      The Senate recedes with an amendment that would combine 
these provisions.
Value-based purchasing and acquisition of managed care support 
        contracts for TRICARE program (sec. 705)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 726) that 
would require the Secretary of Defense to conduct a new 
competition of all medical support contracts, except the 
overseas medical support contract, with private sector entities 
under the TRICARE program by January 1, 2018, upon expiration 
of each such contract. New contracts would be competitively 
procured and automatically renewable for a period of not more 
than 10 years unless notice for termination is provided by 
either party not later than 180 days before contract 
termination. The Department would award contracts with a 
combination of local, regional and national private sector 
entities to develop individual and institutional networks of 
high-performing health care providers. The Secretary could not 
exercise an option to extend an existing medical support 
contract with a private sector entity that would delay the 
award of a new contract. Within 1 year of the award of new 
medical support contracts, the Secretary would be required to 
issue an open broad agency announcement to allow potential 
contractors to propose innovative ideas and solutions to meet 
the medical support contract needs of the Department. A medical 
support contract awarded through the open broad agency 
announcement would be deemed to meet the requirements under 
section 2304 of title 10, United States Code, relating to use 
of competitive procedures to procure services. For new medical 
support contracts, the Department would be required to include, 
to the extent practicable: 1) maximum flexibility in network 
design and development; 2) integrated medical management 
between military medical treatment facilities and network 
providers; 3) maximum use of the full range of telehealth 
services; 4) use of value-based reimbursement methods that 
transfer financial risk to health care providers and medical 
support contractors; 5) use of prevention and wellness 
incentives to encourage beneficiaries to seek health care 
services from high-value providers; 6) a streamlined enrollment 
process and timely assignment of primary care managers; 7) 
elimination of the requirement to seek authorization of 
referrals for specialty care services; 8) the use of incentives 
to encourage certain beneficiaries to engage in medical and 
lifestyle intervention programs; and 9) the use of financial 
incentives for contractors and health care providers to receive 
an equitable share in cost savings resulting from improvement 
in health outcomes and the experience of care for 
beneficiaries. In establishing new medical support contracts, 
the provision would require the Secretary to: 1) assess the 
unique characteristics of providing health care services in 
rural, remote, or isolated locations, such as Alaska, Hawaii, 
and locations in the contiguous 48 states; 2) consider the 
various challenges inherent in developing robust provider 
networks in those locations; and 3) develop a provider 
reimbursement rate structure in those locations that ensures 
timely access to care, high quality primary and specialty care, 
and improvement in health outcomes. Additionally, the Secretary 
could not modify existing medical support contracts or enter 
into new contracts in rural, remote, or isolated locations 
until the Secretary certifies to the Committees on Armed 
Services of the Senate and the House of Representatives that 
those contracts would ensure timely access to care, high 
quality care, better health outcomes, and a better experience 
of care. The provision would also require the Comptroller 
General of the United States to submit a report, by January 1, 
2019, that assesses the compliance of the Secretary with the 
requirements of this section.
      The Senate bill contained another provision (sec. 727) 
that would authorize the Secretary of Defense to enter into 
contracts to provide health care, including behavioral health 
care, to covered beneficiaries under the TRICARE program with 
any of the following: 1) the Department of Veterans Affairs; 2) 
an Indian tribe or tribal organization that is party to the 
Alaska Native Health Compact with the Indian Health Service; 
and 3) an Indian tribe or tribal organization that has entered 
into a contract with the Indian Health Service to provide 
health care in rural Alaska or other locations in the United 
States.
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 706) that 
would authorize the Secretary of Defense to develop and 
implement value-based incentive programs as part of TRICARE 
contracts to encourage health care providers under the TRICARE 
program to improve the quality of care and the experience of 
care for covered beneficiaries. The provision would require the 
Secretary to brief the Committees on Armed Services of the 
Senate and the House of Representatives on the implementation 
plan not later than 60 days before the Secretary modifies a 
TRICARE contract to implement a value-based incentive program. 
Furthermore, the provision would require the Secretary to brief 
the committees, and any other appropriate congressional 
committees, within 1 year after implementation and annually 
through 2022, on the quality performance metrics and 
expenditures related to the incentive program.
      The House recedes with an amendment that would require 
the Secretary of Defense to develop and implement value-based 
incentive programs as part of any contract awarded under 
chapter 55 of title 10, United States Code, for the provision 
of health care services to covered beneficiaries. The amendment 
would transfer contracting responsibility for the acquisition 
of managed care support contracts under the TRICARE program, 
initiated after the date of enactment of this Act, from the 
Defense Health Agency to the Under Secretary of Defense for 
Acquisition, Technology, and Logistics. The amendment would 
require the Secretary to develop and implement, by January 1, 
2018, a new acquisition strategy for managed care support 
contracts under the TRICARE program and to modify contracts 
existing prior to implementation of this strategy to ensure 
consistency with the strategy.
      The conferees remain concerned about the current 
acquisition strategy for managed care support contracts under 
the TRICARE program. The Department's current contract strategy 
results in routine bid protests, implementation delays, high 
management costs, and costly contract extensions. Under those 
contracts, the Department remains solely at risk for the cost 
of all healthcare services provided, and the adherence to fee-
for-service provider reimbursement fails to encourage 
individual and institutional network providers to provide 
higher quality care, better access to care, and higher patient 
satisfaction at lower costs to the Department. As a result, the 
conferees believe it is necessary to transfer contracting 
responsibility for the acquisition of managed care support 
contracts under the TRICARE program to the Under Secretary of 
Defense for Acquisition, Technology, and Logistics.
Establishment of high performance military-civilian integrated health 
        delivery systems (sec. 706)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 736) that 
would require the Secretary of Defense, by January 1, 2018, to 
establish high performance military-civilian integrated health 
delivery systems through partnerships with other health 
systems, including local or regional health systems in the 
private sector, and the Veterans Health Administration. The 
Department of Defense would accomplish these partnerships 
either through memoranda of understanding or contracts between 
military treatment facilities and private sector health 
systems, such as health maintenance organizations, regional 
health organizations, integrated health systems, and health 
care centers of excellence, or the Veterans Health 
Administration. Under this provision, covered beneficiaries 
would be eligible to enroll in and receive medical services in 
the private sector component of established military-civilian 
integrated health networks. The Secretary of Defense would be 
required to incorporate value-based reimbursement methodologies 
into any memoranda of understanding or contracts to reimburse 
private sector entities for medical services provided to 
covered beneficiaries.
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 707) that 
would amend section 1096 of title 10, United States Code, to 
authorize the Secretary of Defense to enter into partnership 
agreements between military treatment facilities and local or 
regional health care systems to deliver health care to 
beneficiaries in a more effective, efficient, or economical 
manner and provide members of the Armed Forces with additional 
training opportunities to maintain operational medical force 
readiness.
      The House recedes with a clarifying amendment.
Joint Trauma System (sec. 707)
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 708) that 
would require the Secretary of Defense to submit an 
implementation plan, within 180 days of enactment of this Act, 
to the Committees on Armed Services of the Senate and the House 
of Representatives to establish a Joint Trauma System within 
the Defense Health Agency that promotes improved trauma care to 
members of the Armed Forces and other individuals eligible for 
trauma care at a military medical treatment facility (MTF). The 
Secretary would not implement this plan until a 90-day period 
has elapsed following the date that the Comptroller General of 
the United States provides a review of the plan to the 
committees. The Comptroller General would have 120 days to 
review the plan. Under this provision, the Joint Trauma System 
would: 1) serve as the reference body for all trauma care 
provided across the military health system; 2) establish 
standards of care for trauma services provided at MTFs; 3) 
coordinate the translation of research from centers of 
excellence of the Department into clinical trauma care 
standards; and 4) coordinate the incorporation of lessons 
learned from military-civilian trauma education and training 
partnerships into clinical practice. The provision would also 
authorize the Secretary to seek to enter into an agreement with 
a nongovernmental entity to conduct a system-wide review of the 
military trauma system.
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes with a clarifying amendment.
Joint Trauma Education and Training Directorate (sec. 708)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 734) that 
would require the Secretary of Defense to implement measures to 
improve and maintain the combat casualty care and trauma care 
skills for health care providers of the Department of Defense 
by January 1, 2018. The provision would require the Secretary 
to: 1) conduct a comprehensive review of combat casualty care 
and wartime trauma systems from January 1, 2001, to the present 
time; 2) expand military-civilian trauma training sites to 
provide enhanced training for integrated combat trauma teams; 
3) establish a personnel management plan for important wartime 
medical specialties; 4) develop standardized tactical combat 
casualty care instructions and training for all servicemembers; 
5) develop a comprehensive trauma care registry; 6) develop 
quality of care outcome measures for combat casualty care; and 
7) conduct research to understand better the causes of 
morbidity and mortality of servicemembers in combat.
      The House amendment contained a provision (Sec. 709) that 
would require the Secretary of Defense to establish a Joint 
Trauma Education and Training Directorate to ensure military 
traumatologists maintain readiness skills and can be rapidly 
deployed in future armed conflicts. Under this provision, the 
Secretary would establish enduring partnerships with civilian 
academic medical centers and large metropolitan teaching 
hospitals with level one trauma centers to embed combat 
casualty care teams, led by military traumatologists, within 
trauma centers of medical centers and hospitals. The provision 
would require the Secretary to conduct an analysis to determine 
the number of military traumatologists, by specialty, that the 
Department of Defense needs to meet combatant commander 
requirements. Finally, this provision would require the 
Secretary to submit an implementation plan to the Committees on 
Armed Services of the Senate and the House of Representatives 
by July 1, 2017.
      The Senate recedes with an amendment that would combine 
these two provisions.
Standardized system for scheduling medical appointments at military 
        treatment facilities (sec. 709)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 732) that 
would require the Secretary of Defense to implement, by January 
1, 2018, a standardized medical appointment scheduling system 
at military treatment facilities (MTFs) throughout the military 
health system. Under this provision, no MTF would have the 
authority to use an appointment scheduling system other than 
the standardized system. Each MTF would make available a 
centralized appointment system that allows beneficiaries to 
make appointments, either by telephone or by an internet-
connected device, including by smartphone application, through 
an online scheduling system available 24 hours per day, 7 days 
per week. The online appointment system would be able to send 
automated email and text message reminders to patients.
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 710) that 
would require the Secretary of Defense to ensure that military 
treatment facilities implement: 1) first call resolution for 
beneficiaries contacting the facility by telephone; 2) 
standardized appointment scheduling that includes capabilities 
to schedule follow-up appointments within a 6-month period or 
longer from the date of the appointment request and to remind 
beneficiaries of future appointments; 3) increased provider 
productivity standards to improve access to care and medical 
readiness requirements; and 4) maximum use of telehealth and 
secure messaging between beneficiaries and health care 
providers. This provision would require the Secretary to 
implement the requirements by February 1, 2017, and provide a 
briefing on implementation to the Committees on Armed Services 
of the Senate and the House of Representatives by March 1, 
2017.
      The House recedes with an amendment that would require 
the Secretary of Defense to: 1) implement a standardized 
appointment system in the military health system by January 1, 
2018, and provide to the Committees on Armed Services of the 
Senate and the House of Representatives, by January 1, 2017, a 
comprehensive plan to implement the system; 2) implement 
standards for productivity of health care providers at MTFs; 
and 3) submit a report to the committees, by March 1 of each 
year, on the total number of missed appointments at MTFs for 
which a covered beneficiary failed to appear without prior 
notification during the 1-year period preceding the submission 
of the report. Additionally, the provision would require the 
Secretary to brief the committees on implementation of the 
standardized appointment system and health care provider 
productivity standards by February 1, 2018.

                 Subtitle B--Other Health Care Benefits

Extended TRICARE program coverage for certain members of the National 
        Guard and dependents during certain disaster response duty 
        (sec. 711)
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 722) that 
would amend chapter 55 of title 10, United States Code, to 
extend TRICARE program coverage for certain members of the 
National Guard and dependents performing certain disaster 
response duty if the period immediately follows a period of 
full-time National Guard duty. Under this provision, a member 
would not receive extended TRICARE program coverage if a 
governor of a state or the mayor of the District of Columbia 
(DC) determines that such coverage is not in the best interest 
of the member, state, or DC. This provision would authorize the 
Secretary of Defense to charge a state or DC for the costs of 
providing extended TRICARE program coverage to members of the 
National Guard and their dependents.
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes with an amendment that provides 
discretionary authority to extend TRICARE program coverage for 
certain members of the National Guard and dependents performing 
certain disaster response duty if the period immediately 
follows a period of full-time National Guard duty. 
Additionally, the amendment would require the Secretary of 
Defense to charge a state or DC for the costs of providing 
extended TRICARE program coverage to members of the National 
Guard and their dependents if such coverage is extended.
Continuity of health care coverage for reserve components (sec. 712)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 707) that 
would authorize the Secretary of Defense to carry out a pilot 
program jointly with the Director of the Office of Personnel 
Management (Director), of at least 5 years duration, to provide 
commercial health insurance coverage to eligible reserve 
component members who enroll for either individual, self plus 
one, or self and family coverage. If the Secretary and the 
Director determine that a pilot program is feasible, the 
Director would contract with qualified health insurance 
carriers to provide eligible beneficiaries with a variety of 
high quality health benefits plans, which could vary by plan 
design, covered benefits, geography, and price. Reserve 
component members and their family members would not be 
eligible to enroll in a health plan in the pilot program if 
they are eligible to enroll in a health benefits plan under the 
Federal Employees Health Benefits Program.
      Under the pilot program, the Secretary could contract 
with qualified health insurance carriers to provide coverage 
for health care services provided at military treatment 
facilities to pilot program participants, and the Department 
would receive payment from those carriers for any services 
provided at those facilities. Family members of an eligible 
reserve component member could remain covered under the pilot 
program even when the reserve component member became 
ineligible for coverage while serving on Active Duty for a 
period greater than 30 days.
      In addition, an eligible reserve component member would 
be responsible for payment of all cost sharing amounts 
applicable to the health benefits plan plus an annual premium 
amount equal to 28 percent of the total annual amount of the 
premium under the plan. During a period in which a reserve 
component member served on Active Duty for more than 30 days, 
the premium amount and cost shares would be zero for eligible 
family members.
      In consultation with the Secretary of Homeland Security, 
the Secretary would provide recommendations and data to the 
Director on matters regarding military treatment facilities, 
matters unique to eligible reserve component members and their 
families, and any other guidance necessary to administer the 
pilot program. The Secretary and the Director would jointly 
establish a funding mechanism for the pilot program, and the 
Secretary would make funds available to the Director, without 
fiscal year limitation, for payment of health plan costs and 
administrative expenses.
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 712) that 
would require the Secretary of Defense to study options for 
providing health care coverage to certain current and former 
members of the Selected Reserve and to submit a report of the 
findings and recommendations to the congressional defense 
committees within 180 days of the date of enactment of this 
Act.
      The Senate recedes with an amendment that would combine 
these provisions. The resultant provision would require the 
Director to submit to the Secretary of Defense, on an annual 
basis during each year the pilot program may be conducted, 
information on the use of health care benefits under the pilot 
program. The provision would also require the Secretary to 
submit an initial and a final report on the pilot program to 
the Committees on Armed Services of the Senate and the House of 
Representatives. Finally, the provision would clarify the 
elements required in the study of options for providing health 
care coverage that improves the continuity of health care 
provided to certain current and former members of the Selected 
Reserve.
Provision of hearing aids to dependents of retired members (sec. 713)
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 721) that 
would amend section 1077 of title 10, United States Code, to 
authorize the Secretary of Defense to sell hearing aids to 
dependents of retired members of the uniformed services.
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes.
Coverage of medically necessary food and vitamins for certain 
        conditions under the TRICARE program (sec. 714)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 704) that 
would amend section 1077 of title 10, United States Code, to 
provide TRICARE program coverage for medically necessary food, 
including the equipment and supplies necessary to administer 
that food, and vitamins for digestive disorders and inherited 
metabolic disorders.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes with a clarifying amendment.
Eligibility of certain beneficiaries under the TRICARE program for 
        participation in the Federal Employees Dental and Vision 
        Insurance Program (sec. 715)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 703) that 
would amend sections 8951 and 8981 of title 5, United States 
Code, to require the Secretary of Defense to enter into an 
agreement with the Director of the Office of Personnel 
Management to offer eligible beneficiaries the opportunity to 
purchase dental and vision insurance currently available to 
federal employees under the Federal Employees Dental and Vision 
Insurance Program.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes with an amendment that would make this 
provision effective on or after January 1, 2018.
Applied behavior analysis (sec. 716)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 758) that 
would require the Secretary of Defense, on the date of 
enactment of this Act, to reinstate the reimbursement rates in 
effect on March 1, 2016, for the provision of applied behavior 
analysis therapy and to preserve those rates throughout the 
duration of the Comprehensive Autism Care Demonstration program 
conducted under section 705 of the National Defense 
Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2013 (Public Law 112-239; 10 
U.S.C. 1092 note), as extended and modified by the Secretary.
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 734) that 
would require the Secretary to ensure that the reimbursement 
rates for providers of applied behavior analysis are not less 
than the rates in effect on March 31, 2016. The provision would 
require the Assistant Secretary of Defense for Health Affairs, 
upon completion of the demonstration, to conduct an analysis of 
the program and to submit a report to the Committees on Armed 
Services of the Senate and the House of Representatives.
      The Senate recedes with an amendment that would require 
the analysis to include a determination of whether the use of 
applied behavioral analysis under the demonstration improved 
outcomes for beneficiaries with autism spectrum disorder.
Evaluation and treatment of veterans and civilians at military 
        treatment facilities (sec. 717)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 706) that 
would authorize a veteran or civilian to be evaluated and 
treated at a military treatment facility (MTF) if the Secretary 
of Defense determines that: 1) the evaluation and treatment of 
the individual is necessary to maintain the medical readiness 
skills and competencies of health care providers at the 
facility; 2) health care providers at the facility have the 
competencies, skills, and abilities to treat the individual; 
and 3) the facility has available space, equipment, and 
materials. The provision would authorize an MTF to bill and 
accept reimbursement for services provided to a civilian 
patient. Under this provision, the Secretary of Defense would 
be required to enter into a memorandum of understanding with 
the Secretary of Veterans Affairs whereby the Secretary of 
Veterans Affairs would reimburse an MTF for the costs of any 
health care services provided to individuals eligible for 
health care services from the Department of Veterans Affairs 
(VA).
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes with an amendment that would: 1) 
prioritize the evaluation and treatment of covered 
beneficiaries in MTFs ahead of the evaluation and treatment of 
veterans and civilians in those facilities; 2) require an MTF 
to bill and to accept reimbursement from a civilian or a third-
party payer on behalf of the individual for the costs of health 
care services provided to the individual; and 3) require the 
Secretary of Defense to enter into a memorandum of agreement 
with the Secretary of Veterans Affairs under which the 
Secretary of Veterans Affairs would reimburse an MTF, using a 
prospective payment methodology, for the costs of any health 
care services provided to an individual eligible for health 
care services from the VA.
Enhancement of use of telehealth services in military health system 
        (sec. 718)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 705) that 
would require the Secretary of Defense, within 1 year of the 
date of enactment of this Act, to incorporate the use of 
telehealth services throughout the direct and purchased care 
components of the military health system. The provision would 
require the Department to make telehealth services available 
to: 1) improve access to primary care, urgent care, behavioral 
health care, and specialty care; 2) perform health assessments; 
3) provide diagnoses, treatments, interventions, and 
supervision; 4) monitor individual health outcomes of covered 
beneficiaries with chronic diseases or conditions; 5) improve 
communication between health care providers and patients; and 
6) reduce health care costs for beneficiaries and the 
Department of Defense.
      The provision would require the Secretary to establish 
standardized payment methods to reimburse health care providers 
for telehealth services provided to covered beneficiaries in 
the purchased care component of the TRICARE program to 
incentivize the provision of telehealth services. The provision 
would also require the Secretary to reduce or eliminate co-
payments or cost-shares for covered beneficiaries for receipt 
of telehealth services.
      The provision would require the Secretary to submit an 
initial report, within 180 days of the date of enactment of 
this Act, to the Committees on Armed Services of the Senate and 
the House of Representatives, describing the full range of 
telehealth services to be available in the direct and purchased 
care components of the military health system. Within 3 years 
after the date of incorporation of telehealth services 
throughout the military health system, the Secretary would be 
required to submit a final report to the committees describing 
the impact made by use of telehealth services in the direct and 
purchased care components of the military health system.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes with a clarifying amendment that would 
require the implementation of the use of telehealth services 
throughout the direct and purchased care components of the 
military health system not later than 18 months after the date 
of enactment of this Act and would delete the requirement that 
the location of the provider be considered to be the location 
of care.
Authorization of reimbursement by Department of Defense to entities 
        carrying out state vaccination programs for costs of vaccines 
        provided to covered beneficiaries (sec. 719)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 757) that 
would authorize the Secretary of Defense to reimburse an entity 
carrying out a state vaccination program for the cost of 
providing vaccines to covered beneficiaries. Under this 
provision, the amount of reimbursement could not exceed the 
amount that the Department would reimburse an entity for 
providing vaccines to covered beneficiaries under the TRICARE 
program.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes with a clarifying amendment.

                 Subtitle C--Health Care Administration

Authority to convert military medical and dental positions to civilian 
        medical and dental positions (sec. 721)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 724) that 
would amend chapter 49 of title 10, United States Code, to 
authorize the Department of Defense to convert military medical 
and dental positions to civilian positions if: 1) conversion 
would not result in a loss of a military-essential position; 2) 
conversion would not result in degradation of medical care or 
the medical readiness of the Armed Forces; and 3) conversion to 
a civilian position would be more cost effective.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes with an amendment that would require 
the Secretary of Defense, in collaboration with the service 
secretaries, to establish a process to define military medical 
and dental personnel requirements necessary to meet operational 
medical force readiness requirements. The amendment would 
authorize conversion of a military medical or dental position 
to a civilian medical or dental position if the Secretary 
determines that the position is unnecessary to meet operational 
medical force readiness requirements. Additionally, the 
amendment would require the Secretary to convert an applicable 
military position to a civilian position with a level of 
compensation commensurate with the skills and experience 
necessary to conduct the duties of the civilian position. The 
Secretary would not be authorized to place any limitation on 
the grade or level to which the military position would be 
converted. Finally, the amendment would require the Secretary 
to submit a report, within 90 days of enactment of this Act, to 
the Committees on Armed Services of the Senate and the House of 
Representatives that: 1) describes the process established to 
define military medical and dental personnel requirements 
necessary to meet operational medical force readiness 
requirements; and 2) provides a complete list, by position, of 
the military medical and dental requirements necessary to meet 
operational medical force readiness requirements. The amendment 
would not authorize conversions of military medical or dental 
positions to civilian positions until 180 days after the date 
on which the Secretary submits the report to the committees.
Prospective payment of funds necessary to provide medical care for the 
        Coast Guard (sec. 722)
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 731) that 
would amend chapter 13 of title 14, United States Code, to 
require the Secretary of Homeland Security to make a 
prospective payment to the Secretary of Defense of an amount 
that represents the actuarial valuation of medical treatment or 
care provided to members of the Coast Guard, former members of 
the Coast Guard, and their dependents at facilities under the 
jurisdiction of the Department of Defense except during any 
period in which the Coast Guard operates as a service in the 
Navy.
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes.
Reduction of administrative requirements relating to automatic renewal 
        of enrollments in TRICARE Prime (sec. 723)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 739) that 
would eliminate an annual requirement that the managed care 
support contractors under the TRICARE program generate and mail 
an enrollment renewal letter to all beneficiaries enrolled in 
TRICARE Prime.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes.
Modification of authority of Uniformed Services University of the 
        Health Sciences to include undergraduate and other medical 
        education and training programs (sec. 724)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 753) that 
would amend sections 2112(a) and 2113 of title 10, United 
States Code, to authorize the Uniformed Services University of 
the Health Sciences to grant certificates, certification, and 
undergraduate degree programs in addition to advanced degrees.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes.
Adjustment of medical services, personnel authorized strengths, and 
        infrastructure in military health system to maintain readiness 
        and core competencies of health care providers (sec. 725)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 735) that 
would require the Secretary of Defense to implement measures, 
within 180 days of the date of enactment of this Act, to 
maintain the critical wartime medical readiness skills and core 
competencies of health care providers within the Armed Forces. 
The provision would require the Secretary to implement a 
measure to ensure the Services do not substitute a medical 
specialty required for medical force readiness with another 
medical specialty. Additionally, the provision would require 
the Secretary to: 1) modify medical services; 2) reduce 
authorized strengths of military and civilian personnel; and 3) 
reduce or eliminate unnecessary infrastructure in the military 
health system such that military treatment facilities would 
provide only those services required to maintain the critical 
wartime medical skills and core competencies of health care 
providers and to ensure the medical readiness of the Armed 
Forces. Moreover, this provision would require the Comptroller 
General of the United States to provide a report, within 18 
months of the date of enactment of this Act, which assesses the 
Department's implementation of this provision, to the 
Committees on Armed Services of the Senate and the House of 
Representatives.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes with an amendment that would require 
the Secretary to implement measures, within 1 year of the date 
of enactment of this Act, to maintain the critical wartime 
medical readiness skills and core competencies of health care 
providers within the Armed Forces. In implementing those 
measures, the Secretary must ensure that the medical services 
provided in military medical treatment facilities (MTFs), the 
authorized strengths of military and civilian personnel working 
in MTFs, and the infrastructure of MTFs maintain the critical 
wartime medical readiness skills and core competencies of 
health care providers within the Armed Forces. The amendment 
would not require the Secretary to implement any of these 
measures at MTFs located in a foreign country if the Secretary 
determines that beneficiaries in that country would not have 
access to medical services in that country similar to access to 
medical services for covered beneficiaries in the United 
States.
Program to eliminate variability in health outcomes and improve quality 
        of health care services delivered in military medical treatment 
        facilities (sec. 726)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 730) that 
would require the Secretary of Defense to conduct a program, 
beginning not later than January 1, 2018, to: 1) establish best 
practices for the delivery of health care services for certain 
diseases or conditions at military treatment facilities (MTFs); 
2) incorporate those best practices into the daily operations 
of MTFs participating in the program; and 3) eliminate 
variability in health outcomes and improve the quality of 
health care services delivered at MTFs. Under this provision, 
the Secretary would conduct the program in three phases and be 
required to complete each phase within 180 days following 
initiation of that phase. The initiation of phases two and 
three would immediately follow completion of the previous 
phase. The provision would require the Secretary, during the 
conduct of the program, to continuously monitor and adjust the 
health care services delivered at MTFs and the number of 
patients enrolled at those facilities to ensure: 1) a high 
degree of safety and quality in the delivery of health care at 
those facilities; and 2) the delivery of only those health care 
services critical for maintaining operational medical force 
readiness and the medical readiness of the Armed Forces.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes with an amendment that would require 
the Secretary, by January 1, 2018, to implement a program to 
establish best practices for the delivery of health care 
services for certain diseases or conditions at MTFs, as 
selected by the Secretary, and to incorporate those best 
practices into the daily operations of MTFs to eliminate 
variability in health outcomes and to improve the quality of 
care at MTFs. In conducting this program, the Secretary shall 
develop, implement, monitor, and update clinical practice 
guidelines reflecting best practices for the delivery of health 
care services. The amendment would require the Secretary to 
monitor the implementation of the clinical practice guidelines 
and to update those guidelines periodically through a process 
of continual assessment of evidence-based best practices within 
the direct care component of the military health system and the 
private sector.
Acquisition strategy for health care professional staffing services 
        (sec. 727)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 738) that 
would amend section 725(a) of the Carl Levin and Howard P. 
``Buck'' McKeon National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal 
Year 2015 (Public Law 113-291), to require the Department of 
Defense to implement a performance-based, strategic sourcing 
contract for acquiring health care professional staffing 
services for the military health system. The provision would 
require all components of the military health system to use the 
contract, and the Department would be required to develop a 
process for obtaining a waiver, based on documented rationale, 
to use another contract or acquisition approach.
      The Senate bill also contained a provision (sec. 737) 
that would require the Secretary of Defense to enter into 
centrally-managed, performance-based contracts with private 
sector entities to augment the delivery of health care services 
at military treatment facilities (MTFs) with limited or 
restricted ability to provide services such as primary care or 
expanded-hours urgent care. Under this provision, contracts 
would be designed to purchase improvement in health outcomes 
for covered beneficiaries seeking health care services in MTFs. 
This provision would require the Secretary to submit a plan to 
the Committees on Armed Services of the Senate and the House of 
Representatives, within 180 days of enactment of this Act, that 
includes: 1) a description of the number and types of contracts 
the Secretary intends to procure; and 2) a description of the 
performance measures used in procuring performance-based 
contracts.
      The House amendment contained no similar provisions.
      The House recedes with an amendment that would combine 
these provisions. The amendment would require the Secretary of 
Defense to develop and carry out a performance-based, strategic 
sourcing acquisition strategy for health care professional 
services at MTFs located in a state. The new acquisition 
strategy, as developed by the Secretary, would require all MTFs 
to use the contracts awarded under the strategy, but it would 
provide a process for an MTF to obtain a waiver of this 
requirement to use another acquisition strategy. The amendment 
would require the Secretary to submit a report to the 
Committees on Armed Services of the Senate and the House of 
Representatives, by July 1, 2017, on the status of implementing 
the new acquisition strategy. Finally, the amendment would 
repeal section 725 of the Carl Levin and Howard P. ``Buck'' 
McKeon National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2015 
(Public Law 113-291; 10 U.S.C. 1091 note).
Adoption of core quality performance metrics (sec. 728)
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 711) that 
would require the Secretary of Defense to adopt the core 
quality performance measures agreed upon by a collaborative 
group of federal agencies, private sector health insurance 
plans, national physician organizations, employers, and health 
care consumers. These core quality performance measures would 
be used to evaluate the performance of the direct care and 
purchased care components of the military health system.
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes with an amendment that would include 
in the core quality metrics such other sets of core quality 
performance metrics released by the Core Quality Measures 
Collaborative as the Secretary considers appropriate. The 
amendment would amend section 1073b of title 10, United States 
Code, to require the Secretary to include the core quality 
performance metrics mandated under this section in those 
metrics publicly available on an Internet website of the 
Department of Defense.
Improvement of health outcomes and control of costs of health care 
        under TRICARE program through programs to involve covered 
        beneficiaries (sec. 729)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 728) that 
would require the Secretary of Defense, by January 1, 2018, to 
implement programs to increase involvement of covered 
beneficiaries in making health care decisions and to encourage 
beneficiaries to share more responsibility for the improvement 
in their health outcomes through participation in medical and 
lifestyle intervention programs. This provision would 
incentivize those beneficiaries with chronic diseases or 
conditions, such as diabetes, asthma, or depression, or those 
exhibiting unhealthy behaviors, such as tobacco use or obesity, 
to participate in comprehensive medical or lifestyle 
intervention programs designed to improve beneficiaries' health 
outcomes and functional status while controlling health care 
costs for those beneficiaries and the Department. This 
provision would also authorize the Secretary to charge and 
collect a fee from a covered beneficiary, other than an Active-
Duty servicemember, for failure to notify a military treatment 
facility, within 24 hours of a scheduled appointment with a 
health care provider, that the beneficiary will be unable to 
attend the appointment. The Secretary of Defense would be 
required to submit a report to the Committees on Armed Services 
of the Senate and the House of Representatives, by January 1, 
2020, that describes implementation of the programs mandated 
under this provision.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes with an amendment that would also 
require the Secretary to establish a program to incentivize the 
maintenance of a healthy lifestyle, such as exercise and weight 
management, among covered beneficiaries. The amendment would 
not authorize the Secretary to charge and collect a fee from a 
covered beneficiary, other than an Active-Duty servicemember, 
for failure to notify a military treatment facility, within 24 
hours of a scheduled appointment with a health care provider, 
that the beneficiary will be unable to attend the appointment.
      The conferees are concerned, however, about the high 
number of failed medical appointments in the military health 
system. From October 2014 through September 2015, there were 
over 1.6 million scheduled appointments missed by all 
categories of beneficiaries. The large number of failed 
appointments negatively affects access to care for all 
beneficiaries. The conferees strongly urge the Secretary to 
implement programs to minimize the number of failed 
appointments in military hospitals and clinics.
Accountability for the performance of the military health system of 
        certain leaders within the system (sec. 730)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 722) that 
would require the Secretary of Defense and the secretaries of 
the military departments, within 180 days of the date of 
enactment of this Act, to incorporate performance 
accountability measures into the annual performance reviews of 
certain leadership positions in the military health care 
system. The provision would prohibit payment of a performance 
bonus to a civilian employee of the Department of Defense 
occupying a position, specified in the provision, unless the 
operations of the military health care system met or exceeded 
performance measures during the period of the employee's annual 
performance review. The Secretary of Defense would submit a 
report to the Committees on Armed Services of the Senate and 
the House of Representatives, within 180 days of enactment of 
this Act, which describes the incorporation of performance 
accountability measures in the annual performance reviews of 
leadership positions in the military health care system.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes with an amendment that would require 
the Secretary of Defense to determine which military and 
civilian leaders in the military health system would be 
required to have measures of accountability incorporated into 
their performance reviews and would delete the prohibition on 
performance bonuses for civilian employees who do not meet or

times, to the Committees on Armed Services of the Senate and 
the House of Representatives by March 1, 2017.
      The Senate recedes with an amendment that would require 
the Secretary of Defense to conduct a pilot program, not later 
than 1 year after the date of enactment of this Act, for the 
display of wait times in urgent care clinics and pharmacies of 
MTFs. The provision would require the Secretary to submit a 
report to the Committees on Armed Services of the Senate and 
the House of Representatives within 90 days of completion of 
the pilot program that would include, among the report 
elements, a determination of the feasibility of expanding the

                   Legislative Provisions Not Adopted

Modifications of cost-sharing requirements for the TRICARE pharmacy 
        benefits program and treatment of certain pharmaceutical agents
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 702) that 
would modify cost-sharing amounts for the TRICARE pharmacy 
benefits program for years 2017 through 2025. After 2025, the 
Department could establish cost-sharing amounts equal to the 
cost-sharing amounts for the previous year adjusted by an 
amount, if any, to reflect increases in costs of pharmaceutical 
agents and pharmacy dispensing fees. With this provision, 
beneficiaries would continue to receive pharmaceuticals at no 
cost in military medical treatment facilities. Under this 
provision, there would be no changes to cost-sharing amounts 
for survivors of members who died on Active Duty or for 
disabled retirees and their family members. The provision would 
authorize the Secretary of Defense, upon recommendation from 
the Pharmacy and Therapeutics Committee and review by the 
Uniform Formulary Beneficiary Advisory Panel, to exclude from 
the pharmacy benefits program any pharmaceutical agent that the 
Secretary determines provides little or no value to covered 
beneficiaries and the Department. Additionally, the Secretary 
would give preferential status to any non-generic 
pharmaceutical agent on the uniform formulary by treating it, 
for the purposes of cost-sharing, as a generic product under 
the TRICARE retail pharmacy and mail order programs. Finally, 
the provision would authorize the Secretary to adopt special 
reimbursement methods, amounts, and procedures in medical 
contracts to encourage physicians to use high-value 
pharmaceutical agents and to discourage use of low-value 
agents.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes.
Pilot program on treatment of members of the Armed Forces for post-
        traumatic stress disorder related to military sexual trauma
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 708) that

3) require medical providers to counsel servicemembers on the 
potential side effects of the drug and to provide written 
patient information required by the Food and Drug 
Administration.
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes.
      The conferees note that mefloquine is one of several 
drugs recommended by the Centers for Disease Control to prevent 
malaria and to treat certain forms of the disease. The 
conferees are concerned, however, that mefloquine may produce 
serious neuropsychiatric side effects such as depression, 
auditory and visual hallucinations, anxiety, and suicidal 
ideation. The conferees urge the Department of Defense to limit 
the prescription of mefloquine to those servicemembers who may 
be unable to take other first-line anti-malarial drugs. If 
medical providers must prescribe mefloquine to certain 
servicemembers, providers must ensure that those servicemembers 
understand the potential adverse effects of the drug.
Mental health resources for members of the military services at high 
        risk of suicide
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 741) that 
would require the Secretary of Defense to: 1) develop a 
methodology that identifies servicemembers and military units 
at high risk of suicide; and 2) provide additional preventative

pressure, to treat servicemembers who have incurred injuries 
from blast-related events.
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes.
Report on feasibility of including acupuncture and chiropractic 
        services for retirees under TRICARE program
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 747) that 
would require the Secretary of Defense to submit a report to 
the congressional defense committees on the feasibility of 
providing acupuncture and chiropractic services under the 
TRICARE program to beneficiaries who are retired members of the 
uniformed Services.
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes.
Clarification of submission of reports on longitudinal study on 
        traumatic brain injury
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 748) that 
would clarify that section 1080 of the National Defense 
Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2016 (Public Law 114-92; 129 
Stat. 1000; 10 U.S.C. 111 note) should not apply to reports 
submitted by the Secretary of Defense to Congress under section

the National Institutes of Health to identify genetic and 
molecular targets and biomarkers for triple negative breast 
cancer; and 2) provide information in biomarker selection, drug 
discovery, and clinical trials design to enable early 
identification of this form of breast cancer and development of 
multiple targeted therapies for the disease.
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes.
Memoranda of agreement with institutions of higher education that offer 
        degrees in allopathic or osteopathic medicine
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 754) that 
would require the Secretary of Defense to enter into memoranda 
of agreement with local or regional allopathic or osteopathic 
schools of medicine to establish military treatment facilities 
as affiliate teaching hospitals.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes.
      The conferees note that the Department of Defense has 
existing authority to enter into agreements with medical 
schools to establish military treatment facilities as affiliate 
teaching hospitals, and the conferees strongly urge the 
Department to expand those affiliations. By sharing training 
facilities, staffing, and material resources, the conferees 
believe these new academic affiliations could help improve and 
sustain operational medical force readiness and serve as 
productive recruiting grounds for new military physicians.
Prohibition on conduct of certain medical research and development 
        projects
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 756) that 
would prohibit the Secretary of Defense and each service 
secretary from funding or conducting a medical research and 
development project unless the secretary concerned determines 
that the project would protect, enhance, or restore the health 
and safety of members of the Armed Forces.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes.
      The conferees express concern regarding the amount of 
congressional funding for medical research in the Department of 
Defense's (DOD) Congressionally Directed Medical Research

        Assistant Secretaries of the military departments for 
        acquisition as Acting Assistant Secretaries (sec. 802)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 802) that 
would amend sections 3016(b)(5)(B), 5016(b)(4)(B), and 
8016(b)(4)(B) of title 10, United States Code, to allow 
Principal Military Deputies to serve in an acting capacity if 
there is a vacancy in the position of the Service Acquisition 
Executive.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes.
Modernization of services acquisition (sec. 803)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 804) that 
would require the Secretary of Defense to revise the Department 
of Defense Instruction 5000.74, dated January 6, 2016.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes with an amendment that would require 
the Secretary of Defense to review and, if necessary, revise 
Department of Defense Instruction 5000.74, dated January 5, 
2016, and other guidance pertaining to the acquisition of 
services not later than 180 days after the date of the 
enactment of this Act. The amendment also would expand, from 
the acquisition workforce to all Department of Defense 
employees engaged in the procurement of services, the workforce 
to be developed and trained on the acquisition of services.
Defense Modernization Account amendments (sec. 804)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 899B) that 
would amend section 2216 of title 10, United States Code, to 
clarify authorizations for the Defense Modernization Account.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes with an amendment that would exclude 
the transfer of funds that support installations and facilities 
to the Defense Modernization Account. The amendment would set a 
$1.0 billion limit on the total balance of the account and 
require that an acquisition program milestone decision 
authority approve the use of funds in the account. The 
amendment would also require that subaccounts be established 
for each of the military departments and defense agencies that 
deposit and use funds in the account.

         Subtitle B--Department of Defense Acquisition Agility

Modular open system approach in development of major weapon systems 
        (sec. 805)
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 1701) 
that would require all major defense acquisition programs 
(MDAPs) initiated after January 1, 2019, to be designed and 
developed with a modular open system approach (MOSA), to the 
maximum extent practicable.
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes with an amendment that would clarify 
when programs are required to start using MOSA. The amendment 
also would modify the definition of a major system interface to 
include characterization of the form, function, and content 
that flows across the interface. The amendment would require 
the acquisition strategy for a program that uses MOSA to also 
describe the approach to systems integration and configuration 
management.
Development, prototyping, and deployment of weapon system components or 
        technology (sec. 806)
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 1702) 
that would require a major defense acquisition program (MDAP) 
initiated after January 1, 2019, to include only technical 
development that the milestone decision authority determines, 
with a high degree of confidence, would not delay fielding 
target for the program. Concurrent technology maturation and 
system development would remain authorized, but only for 
technologies for which there is high confidence that 
concurrency would not postpone fielding. For higher risk 
technologies, the milestone decision authority would use the 
new authorities provided in this section, or other available 
authorities, to mature and demonstrate technologies prior to 
initiating or separate from a program of record. This section 
also would provide the military services with new funding and 
acquisition flexibility to experiment with, prototype, and 
rapidly deploy weapon system components and other technologies.
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes with an amendment that would expand 
the considerations for planning and conducting prototype 
projects to include existing commercial technologies and 
opportunities to reduce operation and support costs of major 
weapon systems. The amendment would clarify that the military 
services can use an existing oversight board, if one exists, to 
carry out the prototyping oversight requirements of this 
provision. The amendment would require prototyping projects to 
develop a plan for transition into a fielded system or 
operational use. The amendment also would reduce the duration 
of a project to 2 years and would clarify that the rapid 
prototyping process established by section 804 of the Fiscal 
Year 2016 National Defense Authorization Act (Public Law 114-
92) should be pursued if projects exceed the duration and 
funding limits of this provision.
Cost, schedule, and performance of major defense acquisition programs 
        (sec. 807)
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 1703) 
that would require the Secretary of Defense, or his designee, 
to assign program cost and fielding targets when major defense 
acquisition programs (MDAPs) are initiated.
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes with an amendment that would clarify 
that cost and fielding targets should be established before 
funds are obligated for technology development, system 
development, or production of a major defense acquisition 
program. The amendment would modify the definition of the cost 
target to include the program procurement unit cost and 
sustainment cost. The amendment would remove the list of 
elements that should be considered in establishing the program 
goals because such elements are generally known and are 
included in existing acquisition policy guidance. The amendment 
would modify the delegation of authority for establishing 
program targets only to the Deputy Secretary of Defense. The 
amendment also would clarify that the required independent 
technical risk assessments conducted prior to program milestone 
approvals should identify any manufacturing processes that need 
to be matured.
Transparency in major defense acquisition programs (sec. 808)
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 1704) 
that would require the milestone decision authority for a major 
defense acquisition program to provide a new ``acquisition 
scorecard'' report to the congressional defense committees and, 
when appropriate, to congressional intelligence committees at 
each milestone decision point of each program.
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes with an amendment that would modify 
the information required in the program summary reports, to 
include the major cost contributors identified at Milestone A 
that could affect the life-cycle costs of the program and any 
manufacturing risks identified at Milestone A or B that are 
associated with the program.
Amendments relating to technical data rights (sec. 809)
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 1705) 
that would make several amendments to technical data rights 
conferred in section 2320 of title 10, United States Code. 
Among other things, the provision would delineate types of 
interfaces and specify the rights provided to the U.S. 
Government in such interfaces. It would require the U.S. 
Government and Department of Defense contractors to negotiate 
for data rights when items or processes are developed with a 
mix of Federal and private funds. The provision also would 
limit deferred ordering of technical data to 6 years after 
delivery of the last item on a contract and to technical data 
generated, not utilized, in the performance of the contract.
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes with an amendment that would allow the 
Secretary of Defense to negotiate for rights other than 
government purpose rights for technical data relating to major 
system interfaces if it would be in the best interest of the 
United States. The amendment would require the Department of 
Defense to identify major system interfaces in contract 
solicitations and contracts. For major system interfaces 
developed exclusively at private expense, the amendment would 
clarify that the Secretary shall negotiate with the developer 
appropriate compensation for the technical data. The conferees 
understand that section 2320 sets forth various rights in 
technical data, and that the price for acquiring technical data 
to which the U.S. Government is entitled is determined through 
negotiations between the Department and contractors. The 
conferees believe that in the case of privately funded major 
system interfaces for which the Department asserts government 
purpose rights it is necessary to explicitly require 
negotiation for compensation. Notwithstanding this amendment, 
the conferees expect the standard practice of negotiating 
prices for technical data to continue for all other categories 
of rights and circumstances set forth in section 2320.
      The amendment also would specify the U.S. Government's 
rights to technical data pertaining to privately funded general 
interfaces necessary for the segregation and reintegration of 
an item or process. Finally, the amendment would extend the 
duration of the government-industry advisory panel established 
in section 813 of the National Defense Authorization Act for 
Fiscal Year 2016 (Public Law 114-92) and require the advisory 
panel to consider the technical data rights necessary to 
support the modular open system approach (MOSA) required 
elsewhere in this Act. The conferees are aware that the 
advisory panel has not yet completed its review of sections 
2320 and 2321 of title 10, United States Code. The conferees 
recognize there are many issues in technical data rights that 
this conference agreement does not address, and are encouraged 
that the panel's comprehensive and thoughtful analysis thus far 
will yield promising recommendations.
      Additionally, the conferees understand that successful 
implementation of MOSA necessitates the allocation of technical 
data rights in major system interfaces, a new concept under 
MOSA. The use of MOSA relies upon the ability of major system 
components to be added, removed, or replaced as needed 
throughout the life cycle of the major weapon system due to 
evolving technology, threats, sustainment, and other factors. 
Therefore, major system interfaces that share a boundary 
between major system components and major system platforms are 
critical, and it is imperative that the government have 
appropriate access to the technical data of such interfaces. 
The conferees understand the importance of technical precision 
in establishing clear delineation of major system platforms, 
major system interfaces, and major system components. As such, 
the conferees urge the Department to carefully consider and 
take input from the advisory panel and industry on the meanings 
and implications of these key terms. The conferees expect the 
Department to include this consideration in its review of the 
MOSA authorities and its briefing on the implementation of MOSA 
required in the House report accompanying H.R. 4909 (H. Rept. 
114-537) of the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal 
Year 2017.
      The conferees also note that the Department recently 
issued a proposed rule that would implement amendments to 
section 2320 of title 10, United States Code, enacted in 
section 815 of the National Defense Authorization Act for 
Fiscal Year 2012 (Public Law 112-81). Various representatives 
of industry have expressed concern about the effects on defense 
acquisition of the amendments made in Public Law 112-81 and the 
Department's implementation of such amendments. Therefore, the 
conferees believe the amendments to technical data rights 
included in this conference agreement are necessary at this 
time.

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

Modified restrictions on undefinitized contractual actions (sec. 811)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 816) that 
would amend section 2326 of title 10, United States Code, to 
revise policies regarding undefinitized contractual actions 
(UCAs). Over the past decade the use of UCAs by the services 
and defense agencies has grown significantly while the speed at 
which these UCAs are definitized has lagged. To address this 
situation, the provision would: (1) require a written 
determination by senior officials to extend a UCA beyond 90 
days; (2) require UCAs to be awarded on a fixed-price level-of-
effort basis; and (3) extend the 180 day definitization 
requirement to contracts in support of Foreign Military Sales 
cases.
      The House amendment contained a similar provision (sec. 
802).
      The House recedes with an amendment that would eliminate 
the requirement that undefinitized contractual actions be 
awarded on a fixed-price basis, ensure that allowable profit 
reflects the cost risk at the time that a contractor submits a 
qualifying proposal to definitize a contract, and specify that 
such a proposal contain the information necessary to conduct a 
meaningful audit of the proposal.
Amendments relating to inventory and tracking of purchases of services 
        (sec. 812)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 820) that 
would amend section 2330a of title 10, United States Code, to 
clarify the applicability of the contractor inventory 
requirement to staff augmentation contracts and to reduce data 
collection and unnecessary reporting requirements.
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 803) that 
would amend section 2330a of title 10, United States Code, to 
revise the current requirement related to how the Department of 
Defense accounts for and reports contracts for services.
      The Senate recedes with an amendment that would set the 
inventory collection threshold at contracts for services in 
excess of $3.0 million and would narrow the focus of the 
inventory collection requirement to staff augmentation 
contracts as informed by the specified Service Acquisition 
Portfolio Groups. Rather than providing the inventory itself to 
the Congress, the amendment would require the Secretary of 
Defense to provide to Congress an annual summary of the 
inventory activities performed during the past year pursuant to 
staff augmentation contracts as defined in the amendment. 
Additionally, the amendment removes the Department of Defense 
Office of the Inspector General reporting requirement and 
reduces the annual Comptroller General reporting requirement to 
a one-time review in 2018 that would cover the changes 
implemented by this Act.
      In performing the review and planning requirements in 
(d), the conferees direct the Secretary of the military 
department or the head of the Defense Agency to focus on the 17 
Product Service Codes identified by the Office of Federal 
Procurement Policy and the Government Accountability Office in 
report GAO-16-46 as high risk for including services that are 
closely associated with inherently governmental functions.
      The conferees direct the Secretary of Defense to brief 
the Committees on Armed Services of the Senate and House of 
Representatives, no later than February 1, 2017, on the plan to 
implement the inventory and reporting changes required by this 
Act, particularly implementation of the inventory of Product 
Service Codes and staff augmentation contracts. The briefing 
shall include information on differences in the number and 
value of contracts captured before and after the changes made 
by this Act.
Use of lowest price technically acceptable source selection process 
        (sec. 813)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 825) that 
would require the Department of Defense to revise the Defense 
Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement (DFARS) to limit the 
use of lowest price technically acceptable (LPTA) source 
selection criteria in circumstances that would potentially deny 
the Department the benefits of cost and technical tradeoffs in 
the source selection process. The Department would be required 
to only use LPTA criteria in specified circumstances and avoid 
them to the maximum extent practicable for the procurement of 
knowledge-based professional services such as information 
technology services.
      The House amendment contained a similar provision (sec. 
847).
      The House recedes with an amendment that would require 
justification of LPTA evaluation methodologies in each contract 
file, require determination that lowest price reflects full 
life-cycle costs, and expand restrictions on the use of LPTA 
evaluation methodologies to include advanced electronic testing 
and knowledge-based, training, or logistics services in 
overseas contingency operations. The amendment would also limit 
LPTA reporting to only contracts that exceed $10.0 million.
Procurement of personal protective equipment (sec. 814)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 829D) that 
would prohibit the use of reverse auctions and lowest price 
technically acceptable (LPTA) contracting methods for the 
procurement of personal protective equipment where the level of 
quality needed or the failure of the item could result in 
combat casualties.
      The House amendment contained a similar provision (sec. 
804) that would amend section 884 of the National Defense 
Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2016 (Public Law 114-92) to 
clarify source selection criteria to be used in the procurement 
of personal protective equipment or critical safety items.
      The House recedes.
      The conferees understand that, in some cases, both LPTA 
and reverse auctions are appropriate contracting methods and 
price discovery methods. However, the conferees do not believe 
that such methods are appropriate for equipment that provides 
personal protection to members of the Armed Services.
Amendments related to detection and avoidance of counterfeit electronic 
        parts (sec. 815)
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 806) that 
would modify section 818 of the National Defense Authorization 
Act for Fiscal Year 2012 (Public Law 112-81) by replacing the 
term ``trusted suppliers'' with the term ``suppliers that meet 
anticounterfeiting requirements'', as well as related 
conforming amendments. This provision would clear up confusion 
about the term, which refers to the specific category of 
microelectronics supplies that have been accredited by the 
Defense Microelectronics Activity.
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes.
Amendments to special emergency procurement authority (sec. 816)
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 807) that 
would amend section 1903 of title 41, United States Code, to 
expand the permissible uses of special emergency procurement 
authorities to include support of international disaster 
assistance and support of a national emergency or natural 
disaster relief efforts in the United States as defined by the 
Robert T. Stafford Disaster Relief and Emergency Assistance 
Act.
      The Senate recedes.
      The conferees direct the Comptroller General, not later 
than 4 years after the date of enactment of this Act, to submit 
to the Committees on Armed Services of the Senate and House of 
Representatives a review of all procurement activities 
conducted under the authorities provided by this provision.
      The conferees direct any agency making use of this 
expanded authority to closely consult with the Congress on its 
use, especially its use over extended periods of time; the 
establishment of mechanisms to ensure proper oversight over its 
use; and the monitoring of its impact on industry, especially 
small and disadvantaged businesses.
Compliance with domestic source requirements for footwear furnished to 
        enlisted members of the Armed Forces upon their initial entry 
        into the Armed Forces (sec. 817)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 671) that 
would require the Secretary of Defense to furnish athletic 
footwear directly to members of the Army, Navy, Air Force, and 
Marine Corps instead of providing a cash allowance. Such 
footwear must comply with section 2533a of title 10, United 
States Code.
      The House amendment contained a similar provision (sec. 
808).
      The House recedes with an amendment that would authorize 
the Department of Defense, for two years, to purchase 
additional footwear that is necessary to provide sufficient 
choices to minimize the incidence of athletic injuries in 
initial entry training. During those two years, the conferees 
expect the Secretary, to the maximum extent practicable, to 
furnish footwear from domestic sources while taking appropriate 
steps to minimize the incidence of athletic injuries. The 
conferees direct the Secretary of Defense to develop a plan and 
schedule to fully implement this provision, and brief that plan 
and schedule to the Committees on Armed Services of the Senate 
and the House of Representatives no later than six months 
following the date of enactment of this Act.
      The conferees are aware that a number of scientific 
studies have been and are being conducted to evaluate variances 
in foot structures, related causes of athletic foot injuries, 
and appropriate footwear to reduce the incidence of such 
injuries. The conferees direct the Secretary of Defense to 
brief the results of those studies to the Committees on Armed 
Services of the Senate and the House of Representatives no 
later than 18 months following the date of enactment of this 
Act. The briefing shall include recommendations for reducing 
injuries in recruits, including modifying initial entry 
training methods, medically evaluating the foot types of 
members of the Armed Forces in initial entry training, 
furnishing appropriate footwear to such members in initial 
entry training, and domestic sourcing of such footwear.
Extension of authority for enhanced transfer of technology developed at 
        Department of Defense laboratories (sec. 818)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 899) that 
would extend until 2020 the authorization granted to the 
Secretary of Defense and military service secretaries to 
license Department of Defense-owned intellectual property.
      The House amendment contained a similar provision (sec. 
809B) to extend the authorization until 2021.
      The Senate recedes.
Modified notification requirement for exercise of waiver authority to 
        acquire vital national security capabilities (sec. 819)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 805) that 
would amend subsection (d) of section 806 of the National 
Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2016 (Public Law 114-
92) to provide for a notification to Congress not later than 
ten days after the use of the waiver authority to acquire vital 
national security capabilities outlined earlier in section 806.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes.
Defense cost accounting standards (sec. 820)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 811) that 
would amend chapter 7 of title 10, United States Code, and 
establish an independent board chaired by the Chief Financial 
Officer of the Department of Defense to prescribe, amend, and 
rescind cost accounting standards as they affect operations at 
the Department of Defense. The provision also requires that 
cost accounting standards developed shall to the maximum extent 
practicable align with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles 
(GAAP), thereby minimizing the requirement for government-
unique cost accounting systems. The provision would also ensure 
that managerial cost accounting and activity-based accounting 
structures derived from cost accounting standards are applied 
to the financial operations of the Department of Defense.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes with an amendment that would modify 
sections 1501 and 1502 of title 41, United States Code, to 
improve the government-wide Cost Accounting Standards Board 
(CASB) and require that Federal Cost Accounting Standards (CAS) 
be reconciled, to the extent possible, with U.S. Generally 
Accepted Accounting Principles. The amendment also would 
require the CASB to hire an executive director and meet at 
least quarterly to reduce inconsistencies between CAS and GAAP, 
as well as address problems identified by cases presented to 
the Armed Services Board of Contract Appeals and Civilian Board 
of Contract Appeals. Additionally, the amendment would allow 
the head of a Federal agency to waive the application of the 
CAS for contracts valued at less than $100.0 million. The 
amendment also would retain the Senate proposal to create a 
Defense Cost Accounting Standards Board, but would authorize 
the new board to advise the CASB, oversee implementation of CAS 
within the Department of Defense, and ensure that managerial 
cost accounting is appropriately implemented for commercial 
functions performed by employees of the Department. The 
conferees also encourage the Director, Defense Contract Audit 
Agency (DCAA) to examine the potential for electronic quality 
management systems to improve the ability of DCAA to conduct 
thorough and timely audits.
Increased micro-purchase threshold applicable to Department of Defense 
        procurements (sec. 821)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 812) that 
would amend chapter 137 of title 10, United States Code, to 
establish the micro-purchase threshold for Department of 
Defense activities at $5,000.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes.
Enhanced competition requirements (sec. 822)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 813) that 
would amend section 2306a of title 10, United States Code, to 
clarify the definition of competition and the role of the prime 
contractor in determining whether a subcontract meets the 
competitive or commercial test under the section.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes.
      The conferees recognize that the government retains the 
right to review determinations made by prime contractors.
Revision to effective date of senior executive benchmark compensation 
        for allowable cost limitations (sec. 823)
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 805) that 
would remove the retroactive application requirement of section 
803 of the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 
2012 (Public Law 112-81), which implemented a cap on the 
allowable compensation of contractor employees. As a result of 
this revision, section 803 would apply to compensation costs 
incurred after January 1, 2012, under contracts entered into on 
or after December 31, 2011.
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes.
Treatment of independent research and development costs on certain 
        contracts (sec. 824)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 814) that 
would amend section 2372 of title 10, United States Code, to 
clarify in what circumstances independent research and 
development costs are considered fair, reasonable, and 
allowable expenses on Department of Defense contracts.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes with an amendment that would create a 
new section 2372a of title 10, United States Code, that would 
specify that bid and proposal expenses considered as allowable 
indirect costs on cost-reimbursement contracts should be 
reported independently of independent research and development 
costs under section 2372 of title 10, United States Code. The 
amendment would establish for the Department of Defense a goal 
that Department-wide bid and proposal costs should not exceed 
one percent of the amount of contractor sales to the 
Department. The conferees do not intend for the Department to 
achieve this goal by arbitrarily limiting the amount of bid and 
proposal costs contractors may have reimbursed, but to instead 
address the factors driving bid and proposal costs. The 
amendment would also require the Department to contract with an 
outside, independent entity to study the laws, regulations, and 
practices driving bid and proposal costs and provide 
recommendations to the Department on how to reduce these costs. 
If, in any year the Department fails to meet the one percent 
goal, the amendment would require that an advisory panel 
pursuant to the Federal Advisory Committees Act (5 U.S.C. app) 
be established to provide recommendations on changes to 
statute, regulation, and practice to reduce bid and proposal 
costs. The amendment also would require the Department to 
report on bid and proposal costs and independent research and 
development costs as part of the report required under 2313a of 
title 10, United States Code.
Exception to requirement to include cost or price to the Government as 
        a factor in the evaluation of proposals for certain multiple-
        award task or delivery order contracts (sec. 825)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 815) that 
would amend section 2305(a)(3) of title 10, United States Code, 
to provide an exception to the existing statutory requirement 
to include cost or price to the Federal Government as an 
evaluation factor that must be considered in the evaluation of 
proposals for all contracts. The provision would only apply to 
multiple award task or delivery order contracts to buy services 
and the Department would then appropriately focus on price when 
individual task orders are issued and competed.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes with an amendment that would allow task 
or delivery orders to be awarded on a sole-source basis when a 
standalone contract could be awarded on a sole-source basis. 
The amendment also would preclude the award of multiple award 
contracts without cost or pricing data in cases where task 
orders are expected to be awarded as sole source contracts to 
small businesses under section 8(a) of the Small Business Act 
(Public Law 85-536) because price competition at the time of 
task or delivery order award would not be expected.
Extension of program for comprehensive small business contracting plans 
        (sec. 826)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 818) that 
would amend chapter 137 of title 10, United States Code, to add 
a new section that would codify the authority to conduct small 
business subcontracting plans. The Government Accountability 
Office (GAO) recently reported to the committee that the Test 
Program for Negotiation of Comprehensive Small Business 
Subcontracting Plans has resulted in the avoidance of millions 
of dollars in administrative costs and recommended that the 
program be made permanent. This provision would implement GAO's 
recommendation.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes with an amendment that would extend the 
current pilot program through the end of fiscal year 2027.
Treatment of side-by-side testing of certain equipment, munitions, and 
        technologies manufactured and developed under cooperative 
        research and development agreements as use of competitive 
        procedures (sec. 827)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 823) that 
would amend section 2350a(g) of title 10, Untied States Code, 
to add a new paragraph to clarify that the general solicitation 
and testing competitive procedures used under the program are 
competitive procedures under chapter 137 of title 10, United 
States Code.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes with an amendment that would make 
discretionary the use of side-by-side testing to fulfill 
competitive procedures for follow-on procurements and that 
would set a time limit within which such follow-on procurements 
could be conducted. The conferees expect that, prior to 
procuring any items under this provision, market research will 
be conducted to determine that comparable items are not 
available.
Defense Acquisition Challenge Program amendments (sec. 828)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 824) that 
would amend section 2359b(a)(2) of title 10, United States 
Code, to expand the scope of the defense acquisition challenge 
program to include alternatives to existing acquisition 
programs and to clarify that the general solicitation 
competitive procedures used under the program are competitive 
procedures under chapter 137 of title 10, United States Code.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes.
Preference for fixed-price contracts (sec. 829)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 827) that 
would revise the Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation 
Supplement to establish a preference for fixed-price contracts, 
including fixed-price incentive fee contracts, in the 
determination of contract type and establish an approval 
mechanism for the use of cost-type contracts over $5.0 million 
in value.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes with an amendment that would expand the 
number of Department of Defense officials who can approve a 
cost-type contract and that would increase the contractual 
dollar threshold that require such approvals.
Requirement to use firm fixed-price contracts for foreign military 
        sales (sec. 830)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 828) that 
would require the Secretary of Defense to prescribe regulations 
to require the use of firm fixed-price contracts for foreign 
military sales not later than 180 days after the enactment of 
this Act. Additionally, this provision would grant the 
Secretary waiver authority if the Secretary determines that a 
different type of contract is in the best interest of the 
United States taxpayers.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes with an amendment that would clarify 
that foreign countries that are counterparties to foreign 
military sales may select a contracting vehicle that is not 
firm fixed-price. The conferees direct the Secretary of Defense 
to develop a process to determine the contracting preferences 
of foreign counterparties and to brief the Committees on Armed 
Services of the Senate and House of Representatives on the 
elements of the process no later than 6 months after enactment 
of this Act. The conferees further expect that the Secretary 
shall waive the requirement for firm fixed-price contracts only 
in exceptional cases. The conferees expect that the Department 
of Defense will not interfere in the process of the host nation 
selecting a contract type. If a contract type other than firm 
fixed-price is selected at the request of a country, the 
Secretary of Defense shall be prepared to notify Congress that 
the Department of Defense did not encourage the country in the 
decision to pursue that contract type. The amendment also would 
establish a pilot program to accelerate contracting of foreign 
military sales by allowing the Department of Defense to base 
price reasonableness determinations on actual cost and pricing 
data for purchases of the same product for the Department.
Preference for performance-based contractual payments (sec. 831)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 829) that 
would amend section 2307(b) of title 10, United States Code, to 
establish a preference for performance-based payments to 
contractors and would re-establish the policy objective laid 
out in Federal Acquisition Regulation 32.1001, which 
established performance-based payments as the preferred 
Government financing mechanism.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes with an amendment that would clarify 
that nothing in the provision authorizes the Defense Contract 
Audit Agency to perform audits of a contractor's compliance 
with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles.
Contractor incentives to achieve savings and improve mission 
        performance (sec. 832)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 829A) that 
would amend section 2332 of title 10, United States Code, to 
require the Defense Acquisition University to develop and 
implement a training program for Department of Defense 
acquisition personnel on share-in-savings contracts not later 
than 180 days after the enactment of this Act.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes with an amendment that would require 
the Defense Acquisition University to provide training on the 
use of contracting authorities that incentivize contractors to 
deliver additional savings to the government.
Sunset and repeal of certain contracting provisions (sec. 833)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 829F) that 
would: (1) amend title 10, United States Code, to sunset 
sections 2212, 2220, 2228, 2304e, 2421 by September 30, 2018; 
(2) amend title 10, United States Code, to sunset section 1706 
by September 30, 2019; and (3) repeal sections 2245a, 2225, 
2302c, 2378, 2387 of title 10, United States Code.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes with an amendment that would retain the 
reporting requirement in section 2212 of title 10, United 
States Code, which provides budget information on service 
contracting, as well as section 1706 of title 10, United States 
Code, which provides the Department of Defense with a list of 
acquisition positions considered inherently governmental.
Flexibility in contracting award program (sec. 834)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 829G) that 
would establish an award to recognize defense acquisition 
programs and acquisition professionals that make the best use 
of flexibilities and those authorities granted in the Federal 
Acquisition Regulation and Department of Defense Instruction 
5000.02 (Operation of the Defense Acquisition System) meant to 
increase the efficiency of programs.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes with an amendment that would reduce the 
administrative burdens associated with the awards program.
Protection of task order competition (sec. 835)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 819) that 
would amend section 2304c(e) of title 10, United States Code, 
that would prohibit task and delivery order protests if the 
Secretary of Defense has appointed an ombudsman in accordance 
with section 2304c(f) of title 10, United States Code, to 
review complaints related to task and delivery order contracts.
      The House amendment contained a similar provision (sec. 
1862) that would amend section 4106(f) of title 41, United 
States Code, to maintain a consistent approach to task-order 
protests between civilian and defense agencies.
      The House recedes with an amendment that would 
permanently authorize protests of task and delivery orders with 
values exceeding $10.0 million at civilian agencies. For 
protests of task and delivery orders of the Department of 
Defense, the amendment modifies section 2304c(e)(1)(B) of title 
10, United States Code, to increase the minimum value of a task 
or delivery order that may be protested from $10.0 million to 
$25.0 million.
Contract closeout authority (sec. 836)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 829J) that 
would grant the Secretary of Defense the authority to close out 
contracts entered into prior to fiscal year 2000 without 
completing further reconciliation audits other than those 
described in this section.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes with an amendment that would make a 
series of technical corrections to conform the language of this 
provision to similar provisions in this bill.
Closeout of old Department of the Navy contracts (sec. 837)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 829K) that 
would grant the Secretary of the Navy authority to close out 
contracts entered into between fiscal years 1974 and 1998 to 
design, construct, repair, or support the construction or 
repair of Navy submarines without completing further 
reconciliation audits other than those described in this 
section.
      The House amendment contained a similar provision (sec. 
837).
      The House recedes with an amendment that would make a 
series of technical corrections to conform the language of this 
provision to similar provisions in this bill.

 Subtitle D--Provisions Relating to Major Defense Acquisition Programs

Change in date of submission to Congress of Selected Acquisition 
        Reports (sec. 841)
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 811) that 
would amend section 2342(f) of title 10, United States Code, by 
changing, from 45 to 10, the number of days after the 
President's budget request transmittal that comprehensive 
annual Selected Acquisition Reports are due to Congress.
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes with an amendment that would modify 
the date when Selected Acquisition Reports are due to Congress.
Amendments relating to independent cost estimation and cost analysis 
        (sec. 842)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 803) that 
would amend section 2334 of title 10, United States Code, and 
would repeal section 2434 of title 10, United States Code, in 
order to remove the ambiguity concerning the roles and 
responsibilities for the conduct of independent cost estimates 
(ICEs) by designating the Director of Cost Assessment and 
Program Evaluation (CAPE) to ensure standards are met. The 
Senate bill also contained a provision (sec. 836) that would 
amend subsection (d) of section 2334 of title 10, United States 
Code, to remove the requirement for disclosure of confidence 
levels for baseline estimates of major defense acquisition 
programs.
      The House amendment contained a similar provision (sec. 
812) that would amend sections 2334 and 2434 of title 10, 
United States Code, to make clear that CAPE conducts or 
approves ICEs for all major defense acquisition programs and 
major automated information systems.
      The Senate recedes with an amendment that would require 
an ICE for the technology maturation and risk reduction phase 
of a major defense acquisition program or major subprogram that 
identifies the key contributors to the life-cycle costs of the 
program or subprogram. The conferees expect that the procedures 
to be developed for collecting cost data from acquisition 
program contractors are cost effective and make use of existing 
sources of data, to the best extent practicable.
Revisions to Milestone B determinations (sec. 843)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 835) that 
would amend section 2366b(a)(3) of title 10, United States Code 
to eliminate the need for waivers that are regularly submitted 
to the committee for programs that are executed at the 
beginning of the fiscal year but before the Future Years 
Defense Program (FYDP) has been submitted, and should receive 
Milestone B certification as long as there is funding in the 
current FYDP. This provision would reduce the number of 
required waivers and therefore reduce unnecessary staff burden.
      The House amendment contained a similar provision (sec. 
813).
      The Senate recedes.
Review and report on sustainment planning in the acquisition process 
        (sec. 844)
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 814) that 
would require the Secretary of Defense to enter into a contract 
with an independent entity with appropriate expertise to 
conduct an assessment of the extent to which sustainment 
matters are considered in decisions related to requirements, 
acquisition, cost estimating, and programming and budgeting for 
major defense acquisition programs.
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes with an amendment that would extend 
and include additional elements in the review, such as an 
evaluation of how well life-cycle sustainment strategies 
required under section 2337 of title 10, United States Code, 
are incorporated into the acquisition strategy required by 
section 2431a of title 10, United States Code, and other 
acquisition planning.
Revision to distribution of annual report on operational test and 
        evaluation (sec. 845)
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 815) that 
would amend section 139 of title 10, United States Code, by 
including the Secretaries of the military departments in the 
list of people who receive the annual report of the Director of 
Operational Test and Evaluation (DOTE). The section would also 
extend the annual report through January 31, 2021.
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes.
      The conferees recognize the importance in having an 
independent report each year on operational test and evaluation 
activities in the Department of Defense, but encourage the 
Director of Operational Test and Evaluation to seek and 
consider input from other Department test organizations in 
developing such reports. Further, the conferees believe that 
more rigorous developmental testing, realistic requirements, 
and disciplined systems engineering will likely improve 
operational test outcomes. The conferees expect program offices 
to take the necessary steps to improve operational test 
outcomes and adopt lessons learned and best practices that are 
identified in the DOTE annual report. The conferees note that 
these reports are public documents and available electronically 
to all interested parties.
Repeal of major automated information systems provisions (sec. 846)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 831) that 
would repeal chapter 144A of title 10, United States Code.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes with an amendment that would sunset the 
requirements chapter 144A of title 10, United States Code, on 
September 30, 2017.
Revisions to definition of major defense acquisition program (sec. 847)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 832) that 
would amend section 2430 of title 10, United States Code, and 
revise the definition of a major defense acquisition program to 
exclude fixed-price prototypes not planned as part of an 
existing major defense acquisition program and those programs 
or projects developed under the rapid fielding or rapid 
prototyping acquisition pathway authorized under section 804 of 
the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2016 
(Public Law 114-92).
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes with an amendment that would specify 
that major defense acquisition program costs exclude 
acquisition programs or projects that are carried out using the 
rapid fielding or rapid prototyping acquisition pathway under 
section 804 of the National Defense Authorization Act for 
Fiscal Year 2016 (Public Law 114-92).
Acquisition strategy (sec. 848)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 833) that 
would amend section 2431a of title 10, United States Code, to 
make technical changes and require that the acquisition 
strategy for each major defense acquisition program must also 
consider a comprehensive sustainment strategy that includes all 
aspects of the total life-cycle management of the weapon 
system, including product support, logistics, product support 
engineering, supply chain integration, maintenance, acquisition 
logistics, and all aspects of software sustainment.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes with an amendment that would remove the 
requirement to include a sustainment strategy within the 
acquisition strategy required under section 2431a of title 10, 
United States Code. The conferees note that section 2431a of 
title 10, United States Code, requires logistics, maintenance, 
and sustainment issues to be considered in acquisition 
strategies, and that a life-cycle sustainment strategy is 
mandated under section 2337 of title 10, United States Code. 
Another provision in this Act requires an evaluation of the 
existing life-cycle sustainment strategy and an assessment of 
how well its elements are incorporated into the acquisition 
strategy in section 2431a of title 10, United States Code.
Improved life-cycle cost control (sec. 849)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 834) that 
would make several amendments to improve life-cycle cost 
controls. First, this provision would amend section 804(c)(3) 
of the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2016 
(Public Law 114-92), to require rapid fielding guidance from 
the Under Secretary of Defense for Acquisition, Technology, and 
Logistics to include direction on a process for identifying and 
exploiting opportunities to use the rapid fielding pathway to 
reduce total ownership costs. Secondly, this provision would 
amend section 805(2) of the National Defense Authorization Act 
for Fiscal Year 2016 (NDAA) to include life-cycle cost 
management as a procedure that the Secretary of Defense should 
establish for alternative acquisition pathways to meet national 
security needs. Thirdly, this provision would amend section 
833(e) of the NDAA for Fiscal Year 2016 to require the 
Secretary to also issue guidance on policies to maximize the 
use of fixed-price contracts and the ability to implement 
tradeoffs in total cost of ownership, schedule, and 
performance. Fourthly, this provision would add a new section 
to chapter 144 of title 10, United States Code, which would 
require sustainment reviews of acquisition programs 5 years 
after initial operational capability--unless the program has 
failed to maintain its availability or reliability threshold or 
has breached its affordability cap before that time. 
Additionally, this provision would require the Secretary of 
Defense to establish a commercial operational and support 
savings initiative to insert existing commercial items or 
technology into military legacy programs through rapid 
development and fielding of prototypes in order to improve 
readiness and reduce operations and support costs.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes with an amendment that would require 
the military departments to conduct a sustainment review five 
years after declaration of initial operational capability of a 
major defense acquisition program and throughout the system's 
life cycle, using availability and reliability thresholds and 
cost estimates as the triggers that prompt such a review. The 
amendment also would clarify that sustainment reviews would be 
conducted in coordination with the requirements of section 2337 
of title 10, United States Code, and section 832 of the 
National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2012 (Public 
Law 112-81). The amendment also would authorize a commercial 
operational and support savings initiative.
Authority to designate increments or blocks of items delivered under 
        major defense acquisition programs as major subprograms for 
        purposes of acquisition reporting (sec. 850)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 837) that 
would amend section 2430a(1)(B) of title 10, United States 
Code, to expand the authority to designate increments or blocks 
of items delivered under major defense acquisition programs as 
major subprograms.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes.
Reporting of small business participation on Department of Defense 
        programs (sec. 851)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 838) that 
would amend chapter 137 of title 10, United States Code, to 
include a new section to include first and second tier 
subcontracts awarded by the Department of Defense under major 
defense acquisition programs in the Department's overall count 
of small business goals.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes with an amendment that would require 
the Department of Defense to annually report on its attainment 
of the small business prime contracting goals and 
subcontracting goals as required by section 15(h) of the Small 
Business Act (15 United States Code 644(h)) and to report 
separately on its small business use after excluding certain 
types of contracts that may not be suitable for award to small 
businesses.
Waiver of congressional notification for acquisition of tactical 
        missiles and munitions greater than quantity specified in law 
        (sec. 852)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 840) that 
would amend section 2308(c) of title 10, United States Code, to 
waive the requirement for the head of an agency to notify 
congressional defense committees of the decision to acquire a 
higher quantity of an end item for tactical missiles and 
munitions annual procurements.
      The House amendment contained a similar provision (sec. 
836) that would waive the requirement for the Secretary of 
Defense to notify the congressional defense committees of a 
decision, not later than 30 days after the date of the 
decision, to acquire a higher quantity of an end item (for 
tactical missiles and munitions annual procurements only) than 
is specified in law.
      The Senate recedes.
Multiple program multiyear contract pilot demonstration program (sec. 
        853)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 841) that 
would grant the Secretary of Defense the authority to conduct a 
multiyear contract for multiple defense programs that are 
produced at common facilities at a high rate, and which 
maximize commonality, efficiencies, and quality, in order to 
provide maximum benefit and significant savings to the 
Department of Defense.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes.
Key performance parameter reduction pilot program (sec. 854)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 842) that 
would require the Secretary of Defense to enact a pilot program 
aimed at decreasing the number of Key Performance Parameters 
(KPPs) on acquisition programs. The Secretary would be required 
to select one acquisition program from each of the services to 
determine if limiting the number of KPPs to three, at the most, 
leads to operational or programmatic improvements of outcomes.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes with an amendment that would clarify 
the types of key performance parameters that may be reduced in 
the pilot program.
Mission integration management (sec. 855)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 843) that 
would further enhance the Department of Defense's (DOD) efforts 
to adopt an open systems approach to defense acquisition. The 
provision would require the Secretary of Defense to implement 
modular open systems architecture in acquisition programs in 
specified mission areas when implementing section 801 of the 
Carl Levin and Howard P. ``Buck'' McKeon National Defense 
Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2015 (Public Law 113-291). 
The provision would require each multi-service and multi-
program mission outlined in the provision to have a mission 
integration manager to act as the principal substantive advisor 
to the Deputy Secretary of Defense and the Vice Chairman of the 
Joint Chiefs of Staff for all aspects of capability integration 
for the mission area.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes with an amendment that would 
incorporate into another section of this Act the requirement of 
the Senate provision (sec. 843) for the Department to ensure 
that external facing interfaces are identified and clearly and 
publicly characterized in terms of form, function, and the 
content that flows across to enable the creation of 
interoperable ``systems of systems.'' The conferees urge the 
Department to ensure that the standards bodies and processes, 
which are established to support modular open systems 
approaches, promote interfaces that are dynamically managed, 
flexible, and extensible to enable technological innovation and 
performance growth.
      The amendment also would modify the Senate provision to 
provide flexibility to the Department of Defense in 
implementing mission integration activities, and to provide an 
alternative funding source for mission integration activities. 
The conferees urge the Department of Defense to propose its own 
funding mechanism in future budget requests.

        Subtitle E--Provisions Relating to Acquisition Workforce

Project management (sec. 861)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 851) that 
would outline the responsibilities of the Department of Defense 
under chapter 87 of title 10, United States Code, for improving 
program and project management. This provision would require 
that not later than 1 year after the enactment of this Act that 
the Secretary of Defense develop Department-wide standards, 
policies, and guidelines for program and project management.
      The Senate bill also contained a provision (sec. 1097) 
that would amend section 503 of title 31, United States Code, 
and Chapter 11 of title 31, United States Code, to improve 
Federal program and project management in the Department of 
Defense.
      The House amendment contained a similar provision (sec. 
1098L).
      The Senate recedes with an amendment that would clarify 
that all members of the Program Management Policy Council must 
be officers or employees of the Federal government or the armed 
services. This obviates the need to address the application of 
the Federal Advisory Committee (5 U.S.C. App.).
Authority to waive tenure requirement for program managers for program 
        definition and program execution periods (sec. 862)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 852) that 
would amend sections 826(e) and 827(e) of the National Defense 
Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2016 (Public Law 114-92) to 
harmonize the waiver authorities granted in these sections to 
the Service Acquisition Executive or the Under Secretary of 
Defense for Acquisition, Technology, and Logistics.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes.
Purposes for which the Department of Defense Acquisition Workforce 
        Development Fund may be used; advisory panel amendments (sec. 
        863)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 854) that 
would amend section 1705 of title 10, United States Code, to 
expand the use of the Department of Defense Acquisition 
Workforce Development Fund. The provision would clarify that 
the fund could be used for the development of acquisition tools 
and methodologies and the undertaking of research and 
development of activities that could lead to acquisition 
policies and practices that will improve the efficiency and 
effectiveness of defense acquisition efforts.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes with an amendment that would clarify 
that the advisory panel on streamlining and codifying 
acquisition regulations that was established in section 809 of 
the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2016 
(Public Law 114-92) is an independent advisory panel to be 
supported by the Defense Acquisition University and the 
National Defense University. The amendment would further 
clarify that, as an independent advisory panel, the panel has 
the hiring authorities provided in section 3161 of title 5, 
United States Code. The amendment also would limit the amount 
of funds that may be used in fiscal year 2017 for acquisition 
tools and methodologies and the undertaking of research and 
development to $35.0 million.
Department of Defense Acquisition Workforce Development Fund 
        determination adjustment (sec. 864)
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 839) that 
would amend section 1705 of title 10, United States Code, to 
allow the Secretary of Defense to reduce the threshold amount 
that must be credited to the Defense Acquisition Workforce 
Development Fund during fiscal year 2017 from $400.0 million to 
$0. This section addresses an overfunding of the fund that has 
resulted from carryovers from prior years.
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes with an amendment that would require 
the Department of Defense to transfer $225.0 million from the 
Defense Acquisition Workforce Development Fund (DAWDF) in 
fiscal year 2017 to the Department's Rapid Prototyping Fund. 
The conferees also direct the Secretary of Defense to brief the 
Committees on Armed Services of the Senate and the House of 
Representatives, not later than March 15, 2017, on the extent 
to which DAWDF funding is sufficient to meet acquisition 
workforce development requirements and on steps the Department 
has taken to improve the management and implementation of the 
DAWDF to avoid carryover funding. The conferees encourage the 
Department to make use of the expanded authorities for the use 
of the DAWDF to address workforce training and development of 
acquisition tools and practices to improve acquisition practice 
and outcomes.
      It is the opinion of the conferees per section 1705 of 
title 10, United States Code, that the amounts transferred into 
the DAWDF from unobligated balances, as described in subsection 
3, does not have a maximum limit each year. The $500,000,000 
limitation only applies to subsection 2 relating to credits for 
contract services. The conferees direct the Secretary of 
Defense to establish waivers to procedures regarding obligation 
and expenditure rates, applicability of standard financial 
management regulations, and other financial management 
procedures, as necessary, to ensure the most efficient and 
effective execution of projects supported by the Rapid 
Prototyping Fund. Specifically, the conferees direct the 
Secretary to establish procedures that provide relief from 
strict obligation and expenditure benchmarks and flexibility in 
using amounts in the Fund consistent with a broad range of 
efforts under research, development, test and evaluation budget 
activities. The conferees believe that strict adherence to 
standard Department financial management procedures may 
negatively impact program execution and not enable the program 
to achieve its goals. The conferees direct the Secretary to 
notify the congressional defense committees within 30 days 
after any such procedures are waived.
Limitations on funds used for staff augmentation contracts at 
        management headquarters of the Department of Defense and the 
        military departments (sec. 865)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 905) that 
would limit the amount of funds available for staff 
augmentation contracts at the Office of the Secretary of 
Defense and the headquarters of the military departments for 
fiscal years 2017 and 2018 to not more than the amount expended 
for those contracts in fiscal year 2016. The provision would 
further require a 25 percent reduction to the fiscal year 2016 
funding for those contracts after fiscal year 2018.
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 809A) 
that would extend the limitation on the aggregate annual amount 
available to the Department of Defense for contract services 
through fiscal year 2017.
      The House recedes with an amendment that would limit the 
amount of funds available for staff augmentation contracts, as 
defined in the amendment, at the Office of the Secretary of 
Defense and the headquarters of the military departments for 
fiscal years 2017 and 2018 to not more than the amount expended 
for those contracts in fiscal year 2016 and would further 
require a 25 percent reduction to the fiscal year 2016 funding 
for those contracts in fiscal years 2018 through fiscal year 
2022.
      The conferees direct the Secretary of Defense to brief 
the Committees on Armed Services of the Senate and the House of 
Representatives, no later than February 1, 2017, on the plan to 
implement the requirements of this provision.
Senior Military Acquisition Advisors in the Defense Acquisition Corps 
        (sec. 866)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 592) that 
would add a new section 1725 to title 10, United States Code, 
to authorize the Secretary of Defense to establish in the 
Defense Acquisition Corps positions to be known as ``Senior 
Military Acquisition Advisors''. Senior Military Acquisition 
Advisors would be appointed by the President, by and with the 
advice and consent of the Senate. Eligible officers include 
officers in the grade of colonel or captain in the Navy, with 
extensive defense acquisition experience, and who are eligible 
for retirement. Senior Military Acquisition Advisors would be 
authorized to remain in service in support of their Service 
Acquisition Executive and be assigned as an adjunct professor 
at the Defense Acquisition University.
      Senior Military Acquisition Advisors would be 
competitively selected and would provide senior level 
acquisition expertise to the Service Acquisition Executive of 
their military department for the remainder of their career. An 
officer who is continued on active duty under this program is 
not eligible for consideration for selection for promotion. A 
Senior Military Acquisition Advisor will serve no longer than a 
5-year term. When a Senior Military Acquisition Advisor retires 
with a minimum of 3 years of service, the officer may, at the 
discretion of the President, be retired as a brigadier general 
or rear admiral (lower half), but without increase in retired 
pay or other compensation by reason of retirement of an officer 
in the grade of brigadier general or rear admiral (lower half).
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes.
Authority of the Secretary of Defense under the acquisition 
        demonstration project (sec. 867)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 1104) that 
would repeal section 1762 of title 10, United States Code, and 
create a new section 1763 of title 10, United States Code, to 
provide a permanent authority that would allow the Secretary of 
Defense to establish and adjust a special system of personnel 
programs for employees in the Department of Defense civilian 
acquisition workforce and supporting personnel assigned to work 
directly with that workforce.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes with an amendment that moves the 
administration of the Department of Defense acquisition 
workforce demonstration project from the Office of Personnel 
Management to the Department of Defense.

           Subtitle F--Provisions Related to Commercial Items

Market research for determination of price reasonableness in 
        acquisition of commercial items (sec. 871)
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 822) that 
would amend section 2377 of title 10, United States Code, 
relating to the preference for acquisition of commercial items 
by adding a new subsection that would require procurement 
officials of the Department of Defense to conduct or obtain 
market research when determining price reasonableness for 
commercial items.
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes.
Value analysis for the determination of price reasonableness (sec. 872)
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 823) that 
would amend section 2379(d) of title 10, United States Code, by 
adding a new paragraph that would allow contractors to submit 
information or analysis pertaining to the value of a commercial 
item when responding to solicitations. This section would also 
allow contracting officers to consider value analysis, in 
addition to historic pricing data, when determining price 
reasonableness for commercial items.
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes.
Clarification of requirements relating to commercial item 
        determinations (sec. 873)
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 824) that 
would amend section 2380 of title 10, United States Code, to

would amend chapter 137 of title 10, United States Code, to add 
a new section to outline the role of the Government

require a large contractor filing a bid protest on a defense 
contract with GAO to cover the cost of processing the protest 
if all of the elements in the protest are denied in an opinion 
issued by GAO. The provision would also impose a withhold on 
payments above incurred costs on any bridge or temporary 
contract to an incumbent contractor who submits a protest and 
that protest results in the issuance of a bridge or temporary 
contract. The distribution of this withhold would be dependent 
on the outcome of the protest.

contractors. The report shall be due 1 year after the date of 
enactment of this Act.

      The House amendment contained a similar provision (sec. 
834) that would require a review of specifications in 
information technology acquisitions to increase competition and 
a review of brand names and specifications for acquisitions of 
goods and services.
      The House recedes with an amendment that would add a 
review of the policy, guidance, regulations, and training 
related to specifications included in information technology 
acquisitions to ensure current policies eliminate the 
unjustified use of potentially anti-competitive specifications.
Inclusion of information on common grounds for sustaining bid protests 
        in annual Government Accountability Office reports to Congress

review and certification of its accounting system for the 
purposes of any audits required by this section.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes with an amendment that would include 
auditing officials in the list of personnel who are provided 
guidance and training on the flexible use and tailoring of

the internal controls and financial management of AbilityOne 
and SourceAmerica.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes with an amendment that would establish

would amend chapter 15 of title 14, United States Code, to 
clarify the role of the Acquisition Directorate in ensuring 
that the needs of customers in major acquisition programs are 
met in the most cost-effective manner practicable. The Vice 
Commandant of the Coast Guard would be responsible for 
representing the operating field units and would serve an 
advisory role to the Commandant for major acquisition programs. 
The customer of a major acquisition program would be specified 
as the operating field unit that would field the acquired 
system and ``major acquisition program'' would be defined as a 
program with a life-cycle cost estimate of $300.0 million or 
more.
      This section also would prohibit the Commandant of the 
Coast Guard from awarding a contract for the design of an 
unmanned aerial system (UAS) for use by the Coast Guard, and 
would require the Commandant to use and operate only UASs that 
have already been acquired by either the Department of Defense 
or the Department of Homeland Security.
      This section also would allow the Coast Guard to extend 
major acquisition program contracts if the Comptroller General 
of the United States finds that extending a current contract 
would be more cost effective than awarding a new contract. The 
Comptroller General would determine the costs for acquiring 
additional vessels under an existing contract, as well as the 
incurred costs due to schedule delays and asset design changes 
that would result from awarding a new contract.
      This section also would require the Commandant to review 
all authorities provided under chapter 15 of title 14, United 
States Code, and other relevant statutes and deliver a report 
to the Committee on Commerce, Science, and Transportation of 
the Senate and the Committee on Transportation and 
Infrastructure of the House of Representatives on how the 
Commandant can play a more appropriate role in the acquisition 
process with regard to policies, requirements, and implementing 
a more customer-oriented acquisition system.
      This section also would require the Secretary for the 
department in which the Coast Guard is operating to submit a 
report to the Committee on Commerce, Science, and 
Transportation of the Senate and the Committee on 
Transportation and Infrastructure of the House of 
Representatives on an analysis of multiyear procurement 
authorities for the procurement of at least five Fast Response 
Cutters (beginning with hull 43) and Offshore Patrol Cutters 
(beginning with hull 5). The report would include an assessment 
of costs and benefits, impact on delivery times, and whether 
acquisitions would meet the four-part test under section 2306b 
of title 10, United States Code.
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes with an amendment that would allow the 
Coast Guard to acquire unmanned aerial systems that have been 
previously funded by the Departments of Defense or Homeland 
Security. The amendment would also require the Cost Analysis 
Division of the Department of Homeland Security to determine if 
contracts for procurement of additional units under an existing 
Coast Guard major acquisition program contract would be cost 
effective.

determination to limit competition or provide a preference for 
products and services produced in areas where the United States 
has long-term agreements with host nations in the African 
region.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes with an amendment that would provide 
for an exemption from preferred local procurement for items 
included on the procurement list described in section 8503(a) 
of title 41, United States Code, if such a good can be produced 
and delivered by a qualified non-profit agency for the blind or 
a non-profit agency for other severely disabled in a timely 
fashion to support mission requirements.

Act for Fiscal Year 2010 (Public Law 111-84) and establish a 
standard justification and approval process for sole-source 
contracts valued at $20.0 million or greater.
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes.
Briefing on design-build construction process for defense contracts
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 843) that 
would require the Secretary of Defense to provide the Committee 
on Armed Services of the House of Representatives with a 
briefing on the use and implementation of the two-phase design-
build selection procedures. The briefing would include: plans 
to implement the updates to the Federal Acquisition Regulation 
that amended section 2305a, title 10, United States Code; a 
list of awards for design-build contracts pursuant to 2305a of 
title 10, United States Code, that had more than five 
finalists; feedback from industry; and any challenges to the 
implementation of this amended statute.
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes.
      The conferees direct the Secretary of Defense, not later 
than March 1, 2017, to provide the congressional defense 
committees with a briefing on the use and implementation of the 
two-phase design-build selection procedures. The briefing 
should include how the Department of Defense continues to 
implement the updates to the Federal Acquisition Regulation 
that implemented the 2015 amendments to section 2305a, title 
10, United States Code, a list of instances in which the 
Department awarded a design-build contract pursuant to section 
2305a of title 10, United States Code, that had more than five 
finalists for phase-two requests for proposals during fiscal 
year 2016, and the list of design-build requests for proposals 
that used a one-step process, any feedback the Department has 
received from industry on the Department's design-build 
selection procedure, and any challenges to the implementation 
of the statute.
Assessment of outreach for small business concerns owned and controlled 
        by women and minorities required before conversion of certain 
        functions to contractor performance
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 844) that 
would prohibit any Department of Defense functions performed by 
civilian employees tied to a military base to be converted to 
performance by contractors until an assessment is conducted to 
determine if the Department has sufficiently carried out 
outreach programs to assist small business concerns owned and 
controlled by women or socially and economically disadvantaged 
individuals located near a military base.
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes.
Enhanced use of data analytics to improve acquisition program outcomes
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 853) that 
that would mandate the establishment of activities to promote 
the use of data analytics and other evaluation-related methods 
to support acquisition decision-making and enhance 
organizational learning.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes.
      The conferees note a widespread recognition that the 
Department of Defense (DOD) does not sufficiently incorporate 
data into its acquisition-related learning and decision-making. 
Many major policy decisions are made without the benefit of 
being informed by substantive data. These policies are 
sometimes based on assumptions, and program reviews do not 
always sufficiently incorporate relevant data against which to 
evaluate success. The conferees note that the Government 
Accountability Office reported in 2015 that DOD officials 
responsible for acquisitions and developing requirements lacked 
access to data and the analytical tools necessary to conduct 
effective reviews.
      The conferees believe that data analysis and other 
evaluation-related methods are a critical element in making 
well-informed acquisition decisions and managing programs. As 
the Congressional Research Service noted, a lack of data or 
effective data analyses can lead to incorrect or misleading 
conclusions. The result may be policies that squander 
resources, waste taxpayer dollars, and undermine the 
effectiveness of government programs or military operations.
      The conferees believe that one important aspect of 
enhancing the use of data analytics in acquisitions is for DOD 
to improve data sharing both within its programs and 
organizations, and where appropriate outside the Department. 
Sharing data externally includes publishing, to the maximum 
extent practicable, and in a manner that protects classified 
and proprietary information, data collected by the Department 
that is related to acquisition program costs and activities. 
Effectively sharing such data would allow industry, academia, 
think tanks, and the public to develop analyses of trends, 
lessons learned, best practices, and new analytical methods and 
tools for decision-making. To this end, the conferees encourage 
the Department to fund intramural and extramural research and 
development activities to develop and implement data analytics 
capabilities in support of improved acquisition outcomes, 
possibly through leveraging the authorities of the Defense 
Acquisition Workforce Development Fund.
      Therefore, the conferees direct the Secretary of Defense, 
acting through the Under Secretary of Defense for Acquisition, 
Technology, and Logistics, the Deputy Chief Management Officer, 
and the Chief Information Officer, and in coordination with the 
military services, to assess the effectiveness of current 
activities and policies related to the use of data analysis, 
measurement, and other evaluation-related methods to the 
planning, implementation, and management of acquisition 
programs and the improvement of acquisition outcomes in the 
Department of Defense. The activities to be assessed should 
include data analytics capabilities and organizations within 
the military services; capabilities in Department of Defense 
laboratories, test centers, and Federally Funded Research and 
Development Centers to provide technical support for data 
analytics; and the use of existing analytical capabilities 
available to acquisition programs and offices to support 
improved acquisition outcomes.
      Further, the Secretary of Defense, acting through the 
Under Secretary of Defense for Acquisition, Technology, and 
Logistics, shall conduct a review of the curriculum taught at 
the National Defense University, the Defense Acquisition 
University, and appropriate private-sector academic 
institutions to determine the extent to which the curricula 
includes appropriate courses on data analytics and other 
evaluation-related methods and their application to defense 
acquisitions, and how these efforts can be used by the 
acquisition workforce to perform their missions.
      The conferees direct the Secretary of Defense, not later 
than 1 year after the date of the enactment of this Act, to 
brief the Armed Services Committees of the Senate and House of 
Representatives on the use of data analysis, measurement, and 
other evaluation-related methods in DOD acquisition programs. 
The briefing shall address the extent to which data analytics 
capabilities have been implemented within the military 
services, DOD laboratories, test centers, and Federally Funded 
Research and Development Centers to provide technical support 
for acquisition program management; the potential to increase 
the use of analytical capabilities for acquisition programs and 
offices to improve acquisition outcomes; the amount of funding 
for intramural and extramural research and development 
activities to develop and implement data analytics capabilities 
in support of improved acquisition outcomes; any potential 
improvements, based on private-sector best practices, in the 
efficiency of current data collection and analysis processes 
that could minimize collection and delivery of data by, from, 
and to government organizations; steps being taken to 
appropriately expose acquisition data in an anonymized fashion 
to researchers and analysts; and an assessment of whether the 
curriculum at the National Defense University, the Defense 
Acquisition University, and appropriate private-sector academic 
institutions includes appropriate courses on data analytics and 
other evaluation-related methods and their application to 
defense acquisitions.
Department of Defense exemptions from certain regulations
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 862) that 
would exempt purchases of commercial off-the-shelf items by the 
Department of Defense from certain Executive Orders and give 
the Secretary of Defense waiver authority for other purchases.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes.
Use of non-cost type contracts to acquire commercial items
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 867) that 
would amend section 2377 of title 10, United States Code, to 
require that the Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation 
Supplement include guidance that firm fixed-priced contracts, 
fixed-price incentive contracts, or fixed-price with economic 
price adjustment contracts be used to the maximum extent 
practicable for the acquisition of commercial items. 
Additionally, this provision would prohibit the use of cost-
type contracts for commercial items.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes.
Modified requirements for distribution of assistance under procurement 
        technical assistance cooperative agreements
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 875) that 
would amend section 2413(c) of title 10, United States Code, to 
conform the Procurement Technical Assistance Program with the 
Defense Logistics Agency current practice of using states as 
the geographic basis for cooperative agreement awards.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes.
      The conferees agree that the current formula for 
distribution of grants to procurement technical assistance 
centers (PTACs) should be adjusted to address that the 
Department of Defense has consolidated its contract 
administration services districts, which are currently the 
basis for grant distribution pursuant to section 2413 of title 
10, United States Code. However, the conferees believe that a 
successful funding formula should consider factors such as 
avoiding the discontinuation of services to existing clients of 
PTACs, the desirability of adding new PTACs or expanding the 
client base of existing PTACs, the population density, 
geographic accessibility of PTACs, duplication of services, the 
level of success obtained by particular grant recipients, the 
availability of funds, and other possible factors. Therefore, 
the conferees direct the Department to provide recommendations 
on appropriate factors and a funding formula. To develop these 
recommendations, the Department shall, at a minimum, work in 
consultation with current grantees and their representatives 
and examine comparable grant programs operated by other 
agencies. Such programs could include the Small Business 
Development Centers, Women's Business Centers, and Veterans 
Business Outreach Centers of the Small Business Administration 
or the Business Centers of the Minority Business Development 
Agency of the Department of Commerce. The Department's 
recommendations shall be provided no later than March 1, 2017.
Working capital fund for precision guided munitions exports in support 
        of contingency operations
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 882) that 
would authorize the Secretary of Defense to establish a working 
capital fund to finance inventories of supplies of precision 
guided munitions in advance of partner and allied forces 
requirements to enhance the effectiveness of overseas 
contingency operations conducted or supported by the United 
States.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes.
Director of Developmental Test and Evaluation
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 894) that 
would amend section 139 of title 10, United States Code, and 
section 196(g) of title 10, United States Code, that would 
refine the role of the Director of Operational Test and 
Evaluation.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes.
      The conferees note that Congress re-established a 
developmental test and evaluation organization within the 
defense research and engineering enterprise in 2009. Since that 
time, the conferees have become concerned that the Department 
has not established a reasonable balance of investment between 
developmental and operational test activities. The conferees 
believe it is necessary to examine the functions and resources 
of the organizations of the Deputy Assistant Secretary of 
Defense for Developmental Test and Evaluation (DT&E) and the 
Director of Operational Test and Evaluation to better 
understand if the Department has struck the right balance 
between these activities. To improve test and evaluation 
results for the Department's acquisition programs in the most 
efficient manner, the Department's leadership must ensure 
sufficient resources to support testing and oversight 
activities.
      The conferees note that, over time, the resources and 
influence of the Office of the Secretary of Defense and the 
Service developmental test and evaluation organizations have 
declined, adversely impacting the successful outcomes of 
acquisition efforts. However, the conferees believe that this 
decline should be re-examined in light of the need for stronger 
developmental test organizations to support department-wide 
efforts to promote technical innovation and re-establish 
battlefield technological superiority. As a result, the 
conferees believe it would be useful for the Department of 
Defense to review the resources allocated to developmental and 
operational test and evaluation organizations to address a 
number of issues and questions.
      The conferees direct the Secretary of Defense to form an 
independent study panel, unaffiliated with a Federally Funded 
Research and Development Center, to review the appropriate 
roles, responsibilities, and level of resources for both 
developmental and operational test and evaluation activities 
required to execute statutory and regulatory responsibilities 
within the Office of the Secretary of Defense. The panel will 
develop such recommendations as it believes appropriate for 
optimal resources and authorities to support developmental and 
operational test missions. The review and report should be 
completed no later than 1 year after the enactment of this Act.
      The committee recommends that the panel address the 
following questions:
            (a) How can the Director of Operational Test and 
        Evaluation and the Deputy Assistant Secretary of 
        Defense for Developmental Test and Evaluation (DASD 
        DT&E) at the Office of the Secretary of Defense 
        approach oversight within the system development cycle 
        to avoid overlap but be mutually supporting without 
        sacrificing the independence of either organization?
            (b) Does participation with and assessment of 
        program progress during phases prior to operational 
        test and evaluation bias the independent objectivity of 
        the operational test and evaluation organization?
            (c) Are there specific test and evaluation 
        activities that should be realigned for management 
        within OSD or the services to promote effectiveness and 
        efficiency of those programs?
            (d) Overall are the developmental and operational 
        test and evaluation organizations effectively carrying 
        out the missions as described in title 10, United 
        States Code, and are there impediments to meeting those 
        responsibilities? In addition, are they engaged in 
        activities outside their mission areas?
            (e) Are the activities of the test and evaluation 
        organizations constructive, not duplicative or 
        disruptive, to support the acquisition goals of the 
        military departments and defense agencies?
            (f) What staffing authorities and other resources 
        are needed to support effective and efficient oversight 
        of both the developmental and operational phases of 
        testing commensurate with the effort to each relative 
        to the portion of the programs that their oversight 
        entails?
Improved transparency and oversight over Department of Defense 
        research, development, test, and evaluation efforts and 
        procurement activities related to medical research
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 898) that 
would prohibit the Secretary of Defense from entering into a 
contract, grant, or cooperative agreement for congressional 
special interest medical research programs under the 
congressionally directed medical research program of the 
Department of Defense unless additional cost accounting and 
other specified requirements were implemented.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes.

      Title IX--Department of Defense Organization and Management

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

Organization of the Office of the Secretary of Defense (sec. 901)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 901) that 
would amend section 133 of title 10, United States Code, to 
establish the position of the Under Secretary of Defense for 
Research and Engineering, amend section 138 of title 10, United 
States Code, to establish and consolidate certain Assistant 
Secretary of Defense positions, and make other conforming 
changes. The provision would also amend section 132a of title 
10, United States Code, to redesignate the Under Secretary of 
Defense for Business Management and Information as the Under 
Secretary of Defense for Management and Support.
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 846) that 
would revise the effective date for amendments relating to the 
conversion of the position of the Deputy Chief Management 
Officer to the position of the Under Secretary of Defense for 
Business Management and Information.
      The House recedes with an amendment that would amend 
chapter 4 of title 10, United States Code, to establish an 
Under Secretary of Defense for Research and Engineering, an 
Under Secretary of Defense for Acquisition and Sustainment, and 
a chief management officer within the Department of Defense, 
effective on February 1, 2018. The amendment would make other 
modifying and conforming changes, and require the Secretary of 
Defense to conduct a review and submit a report to the 
congressional defense committees on the organizational and 
management structure for the Department.
      Three broad priorities framed the conference discussions: 
(1) elevate the mission of advancing technology and innovation 
within the Department; (2) foster distinct technology and 
acquisition cultures to better deliver superior capabilities 
for the armed forces; and (3) provide greater oversight and 
management of the Department's Fourth Estate. The conferees 
believe that separating the ``chief technology officer'' and 
``chief acquisition officer'' responsibilities currently 
residing with the Under Secretary of Defense for Acquisition, 
Technology, and Logistics, as well as establishing a ``chief 
management officer'' within the Department, addresses these 
priorities and better postures the Office of the Secretary of 
Defense organizationally to meet future national security 
challenges.
      The conferees believe the technology and acquisition 
missions and cultures are distinct. The conferees expect that 
the Under Secretary of Defense for Research and Engineering 
would take risks, press the technology envelope, test and 
experiment, and have the latitude to fail, as appropriate. 
Whereas the conferees would expect the Under Secretary of 
Defense for Acquisition and Sustainment to focus on timely, 
cost-effective delivery and sustainment of products and 
services, and thus seek to minimize any risks to that 
objective.
      Some will argue that the agreement exacerbates the 
technology ``valley of death.'' The conferees acknowledge that 
there will be seams in any organizational construct, but also 
believe that this seam creates a healthy tension that can be 
mitigated through effective leadership and management. As an 
Under Secretary, third in precedence, the conferees expect that 
the ``chief technology officer'' would have the stature and 
resources to drive innovation throughout the Department, 
including as needed through development and implementation of 
innovative policies and practices. At the same time, the 
conferees would expect the Under Secretary of Defense for 
Acquisition and Sustainment to challenge any advanced 
technology ideas that the Under Secretary cannot confidently 
deliver on within cost, schedule, and performance objectives, 
and shape those efforts appropriately.
      The conferees recognize that the implementation of this 
provision will require further examination and analysis, to 
include a deeper review of authorities, responsibilities, 
resource implications, and the appropriate allocation of 
subordinate positions and organizations. As such, the provision 
provides policy guidance on roles and responsibilities for each 
of the three senior leadership positions and repeals 
requirements in statute for specific subordinate assistant and 
deputy assistant secretaries of defense to provide flexibility 
to the Department to allocate such subordinate positions to 
best meet congressional policy guidance.
      The conferees believe a review of authorities is 
particularly important, especially as they relate to any 
direction and supervisory authorities vested in the three 
senior leadership positions, to allow those senior leaders to 
effectively oversee and manage activities and resources within 
their portfolios at the direction of the Secretary of Defense. 
Similarly, the conferees believe an in-depth examination of the 
placement within the Department and the responsibilities of the 
chief management officer is also warranted, as they believe 
such an officer could provide greater oversight and management 
of the non-homogenous organizations that comprise the 
Department's Fourth Estate. The conferees also believe an 
examination of the potential for the establishment of a Chief 
Innovation Officer position, informed by best private sector 
practices, is warranted.
      The conferees set a date of February 1, 2018, for the 
implementation of the three senior leadership positions, to 
provide the Department with time to conduct the required 
review, to engage the congressional defense committees, and to 
provide its recommendations on an organization and management 
structure for the Department. However, the conferees encourage 
the President to move out earlier on nominations for these 
senior leadership positions.
      Lastly, while the focus of this provision is on the 
Office of the Secretary of Defense, the conferees also 
recognize that the Department as a whole must be examined to 
provide the organizational and management agility and 
adaptability necessary to address longer-term national security 
challenges.
Responsibilities and reporting of the Chief Information Officer of the 
        Department of Defense (sec. 902)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 903) that 
would amend paragraph 8 of section 132(b) of title 10, United 
States Code, to establish the position of the Assistant 
Secretary of Defense for Information.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes with an amendment that would clarify in 
sections 131 and 142 of title 10, United States Code, the 
responsibilities of the Chief Information Officer of the 
Department of Defense.
      The conferees direct the Secretary of Defense to develop 
a plan within 180 days after the enactment of this Act to 
implement a more optimized organizational structure and 
processes to support information management and cyber 
operations to include the policy, direction, oversight and 
acquisition functions performed by the Deputy Chief Management 
Officer, the Chief Information Officer, the Under Secretary of 
Defense for Acquisition, Technology and Logistics, the Under 
Secretary for Policy, and the Under Secretary for Intelligence 
and any other relevant entity in the Department of Defense. 
This plan should include both business systems and national 
security systems and explore the responsibilities for cyber and 
space policy, information network defense, and the development 
of policies and standards governing information technology 
systems and related information security activities of the 
Department. This plan should also assess the effectiveness and 
utility of the cross functional team supporting the Principal 
Cyber Advisor established by section 932(c)(3) of the National 
Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2014 (Public Law 113-
66).
Maximum number of personnel in Office of the Secretary of Defense and 
        other Department of Defense headquarters offices (sec. 903)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 904) that 
would:
            (1) amend section 143 of title 10, United States 
        Code, to limit the number of civilian and detailed 
        individuals authorized to be assigned to the Office of 
        the Secretary of Defense to 3,767;
            (2) amend section 155 of title 10, to limit the 
        number of personnel on the Joint Staff to 1,930 
        including not more than 1,500 Active-Duty service 
        members;
            (3) amend section 3014 of title 10, to limit the 
        total number of members of the Armed Forces and 
        civilian employees of the Department of the Army 
        assigned or detailed to permanent duty in the Office of 
        the Secretary of the Army and on the Army staff to 
        3,105; and to reduce the total number of general 
        officers assigned or detailed to permanent duty in the 
        Office of the Secretary of the Army and on the Army 
        staff from 67 to 50.
            (4) amend section 5014 of title 10, to limit the 
        total number of members of the Armed Forces and 
        civilian employees of the Department of the Navy 
        assigned or detailed to permanent duty in the Office of 
        the Secretary of the Navy and on the Navy staff to 
        2,866; and to reduce the total number of flag officers 
        assigned or detailed to permanent duty in the Office of 
        the Secretary of the Navy and on the Navy staff from 67 
        to 50.
            (5) amend section 8014 of title 10, to limit the 
        total number of members of the Armed Forces and 
        civilian employees of the Department of the Air Force 
        assigned or detailed to permanent duty in the Office of 
        the Secretary of the Air Force and on the Air Force 
        staff to 2,639; and to reduce the total number of 
        general officers assigned or detailed to permanent duty 
        in the Office of the Secretary of the Air Force and on 
        the Air Force staff from 60 to 45.
      The provision would further clarify the exceptions to the 
personnel limits. It would allow the limits to be increased by 
15 percent during a national emergency.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes with an amendment that would limit the 
number of civilians assigned or detailed to the headquarters 
operations, establish a 2,069 personnel limit for the Joint 
Staff, and clarify that the exceptions to the personnel limits 
allow an additional 15 percent during national emergencies.
Repeal of Financial Management Modernization Executive Committee (sec. 
        904)
      The Senate bill contained a provision that would repeal 
section 185 of title 10, United States Code, regarding the 
Department of Defense Financial Management Modernization 
Executive Committee.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes.

 Subtitle B--Organization and Management of the Department of Defense 
                               Generally

Organizational Strategy for the Department of Defense (sec. 911)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 941) that 
would require the Secretary of Defense to develop and implement 
an organizational strategy for the Department of Defense (DOD).
      The House bill contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes with an amendment that would: (1) 
streamline and condense the organizational strategy required 
from the Secretary; (2) substantially enhance the requirement 
for an independent study of private sector and government 
experience with cross-functional teams (CFTs), and the use of 
cross-functional groups by the Department of Defense, to inform 
the Secretary's implementation of CFTs and the cultural changes 
needed for their success; (3) lengthen and rationalize the 
timelines for the next Secretary of Defense to accomplish the 
changes mandated by the Senate provision; and (4) provide 
additional discretion to the Secretary regarding the number, 
characteristics, and application of mandated CFTs.
      The intention of the conferees in adopting this provision 
is to provide the Secretary of Defense with a valuable tool for 
improving the performance of even the most elite organizations. 
Recognizing that the civilian and military employees of the 
Department of Defense are committed to the mission of 
protecting and defending the United States, the conferees 
believe that CFTs will provide the Secretary, and therefore the 
DOD workforce, a tool to more-effectively achieve their shared 
mission. The conferees believe that CFTs will enable the 
Secretary to more rapidly and effectively develop solutions and 
strategies for complex critical objectives and other 
organizational outputs of the Department of Defense by 
harnessing and integrating the expertise and ingenuity resident 
in the Department's functional organizations.
      Successful CFTs require that DOD develop a more 
collaborative culture, just as the Goldwater-Nichols Act 
reforms required a cultural change to instill ``jointness'' 
among the military services to better support integrated 
operations for the combatant commands. The conferees recognize 
that it is difficult to legislate cultural change, but note 
that cultural change mandated by Goldwater-Nichols was 
achieved, and that this section promotes a more collaborative 
culture by such practical steps as training, directives and 
guidance, and performance reviews. However, the views and 
expectations of the Secretary and his principal staff advisers 
will be critical to success.
      DOD officials have expressed the concern that the CFTs 
mandated under this section will undermine the authority of the 
Secretary of Defense and confuse lines of responsibility. The 
conferees emphasize that the authority of the CFTs, which will 
be established and directed by the Secretary and will support 
the Secretary, derives from the authority of the Secretary. Any 
authority being exercised is the delegated authority of the 
Secretary and is to be applied to cross-cutting objectives and 
other organizational issues that are not under the authority of 
any officials other than the Secretary and Deputy Secretary of 
Defense.
      The conferees note that DOD has established CFTs in the 
past that were highly effective, including teams to improve 
care for wounded warriors, dramatically increase intelligence 
support to counter-terrorism forces, and rapidly build 
thousands of life-saving armored vehicles to protect forces 
facing dire threats from improvised explosive devices. The 
attributes of these successful teams, and the manner in which 
they were managed, as well as the collective experience of the 
private sector and other government organizations, are 
reflected in the provision adopted by the conferees.
      The conferees hope and expect that the good-faith 
implementation of this provision will demonstrate the value of 
properly constructed CFTs, which will spur the use of such 
teams across the Department, supporting officials and decision-
making at all levels of the enterprise.
Policy, organization, and management goals and priorities of the 
        Secretary of Defense for the Department of Defense (sec. 912)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 942) that 
would require a series of management directives for the next 
Secretary of Defense.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes with an amendment that would scope the 
management overview to focus on policy goals, organizational 
management, and delayering of Department of Defense 
organizations and require updates in the form of a briefing on 
February 1 of each year through 2022 after the initial written 
report is submitted by April 1, 2017.
      The Conferees note that the Secretary of Defense is 
expected to utilize the delivery unit authorized in this Act to 
assist with the execution and tracking of goals set under this 
provision.
Secretary of Defense delivery unit (sec. 913)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 906) that 
would provide the Secretary of Defense with the authority to 
establish a delivery unit that would report directly to the 
Secretary in order to provide expertise and support on key 
reform and business transformation priorities across the 
Department for no more than four years beginning February 1, 
2017. Such delivery unit may utilize the public-private talent 
exchange authorities available to the Secretary and consist of 
no more than 30 professionals with deep experience in 
management consulting, organization transformation, and data 
analytics.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes with an amendment that would expand the 
role of the delivery unit beyond the business transformation 
process to also include the authority to identify and recommend 
resolutions to obstacles impeding the implementation of the 
Secretary's policies. The amendment also moves the 
establishment date of the delivery unit to March 1, 2017.
Performance of civilian functions by military personnel (sec. 914)
      The House amendment contained a provision (H. 923) that 
would prohibit the conversion of positions performed by 
civilian personnel to performance by military personnel in most 
cases.
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes with an amendment that would further 
clarify that functions performed by civilian personnel should 
not be performed by military personnel except to meet mission 
requirements, as determined by the Secretary of a military 
department, or to address critical staffing needs for no more 
than one year resulting from congressional reductions in 
personnel or budgetary resources.
Repeal of requirements relating to efficiencies plan for the civilian 
        personnel workforce and service contractor workforce of the 
        Department of Defense (sec. 915)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 1084) that 
would repeal section 955 of the National Defense Authorization 
Act for Fiscal Year 2013 (Public Law 112-239).
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes.

    Subtitle C--Joint Chiefs of Staff and Combatant Command Matters

Joint Chiefs of Staff and related combatant command matters (sec. 921)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 921) that 
would amend sections 151 and 153 of title 10, United States 
Code, to clarify the role of the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs 
of Staff and the key duties that this officer must perform on 
behalf of the joint force, specifically: providing advice on 
the military elements of defense strategy and the global 
integration of military activities; advocating for the joint 
warfighter of today and tomorrow, especially with respect to 
developing joint capabilities; ensuring comprehensive joint 
readiness; and fostering joint force development. This 
provision seeks to clarify the role of the Chairman and thereby 
set an expectation that the preponderance of any Chairman's 
time should be devoted to the key strategic, global, and joint 
duties that are the Chairman's unique purview within the 
military.
      The provision would also enhance the role of the other 
members of the Joint Chiefs, and the Joint Chiefs of Staff as a 
corporate body, to provide military advice to civilian leaders, 
including on the military elements of strategy. Current law 
provides the Chairman discretion with regard to how much to 
consult with the other Joint Chiefs and whether to inform 
civilian leaders of alternative military advice. This provision 
would seek to better enable the Chairman to act as the 
principal military adviser to civilian leaders.
      The House amendment contained two similar provisions 
(sec. 907 and sec. 908). The first provision in the House 
amendment (sec. 907) would amend section 152(a) of title 10, 
United States Code, to extend the term of office of the 
Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff from 2 years to 4 years. 
This section would also limit the reappointment of the Chairman 
to additional terms only in a time of war, and limit the 
combined period of service of an officer serving as Chairman or 
Vice Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff to 8 years.
      The second provision (sec. 908) in the House amendment 
would amend section 153(a) of title 10, United States Code, 
which sets forth the functions of the Chairman of the Joint 
Chiefs of Staff, by codifying the Chairman's responsibility to 
provide advice to the President and the Secretary of Defense on 
ongoing military operations and to provide advice to the 
Secretary on the allocation and transfer of forces among 
combatant commands.
      The House recedes with an amendment that would make 
certain changes to enhance the position of the other members of 
the Joint Chiefs as military advisors, extend the terms of the 
Chairman and the Vice Chairman to 4 years and ensure that such 
terms are staggered, outline the Chairman's role in planning, 
advice, global military integration, and ensure open 
communication between the combatant commands and the Chairman.
Organization of the Department of Defense for management of special 
        operations forces and special operations (sec. 922)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 923) that 
would amend sections 138 and 167 of title 10, United States 
Code, to modify the roles and responsibilities of the Assistant 
Secretary of Defense for Special Operations and Low Intensity 
Conflict (ASD SOLIC) and the Commander of U.S. Special 
Operations Command (SOCOM).
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes with an amendment that would make 
clarifying changes.
      The conferees note that in recent years SOCOM has 
undergone significant change and the capabilities of special 
operations forces (SOF) have taken on critical importance for 
addressing the threat posed by violent extremist groups and 
other security challenges facing our nation. Since 2001, 
SOCOM's personnel numbers (civilian and military) have nearly 
doubled, its budget nearly tripled, and overseas deployments of 
SOF nearly quadrupled.
      Under provisions included in the National Defense 
Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 1987 (Public Law 99-661), 
commonly referred to as the ``Nunn-Cohen Amendment,'' the ASD 
SOLIC is tasked with the responsibility to provide ``the 
overall supervision (including oversight of policy and 
resources) of special operations activities'' and is identified 
as ``the principal civilian advisor to the Secretary of Defense 
on special operations and low intensity conflict matters.''
      The provisions described above were intended to empower 
the ASD SOLIC to serve a hybrid role as: 1) the Department's 
lead civilian policy official for matters related to special 
operations and low intensity conflict; and 2) the ``service 
secretary-like'' civilian with responsibility for the oversight 
and advocacy of SOCOM and the organization, training, and 
equipping of SOF. However, the conferees believe the ASD SOLIC 
has been challenged in fulfilling their ``service secretary-
like'' responsibilities for a number of reasons. For example, 
the ASD SOLIC's organizational location within the office of 
the Undersecretary of Defense for Policy (USD(P)) has resulted 
in the ASD SOLIC dedicating a preponderance of their time and 
resources to policy and operational issues, at the expense of 
their ``service secretary-like'' responsibilities. 
Additionally, other civilian offices with greater seniority 
within the Department exercise related and, at times, 
overlapping responsibilities for aspects of SOF oversight, 
thereby complicating the ASD SOLIC's primacy in such matters. 
Furthermore, the conferees understand that studies directed by 
the Department when the ASD SOLIC was created determined that 
appropriate staffing levels for the organization would require 
between 95 and 110 personnel. However, the office of the ASD 
SOLIC is currently only staffed by approximately 60 military 
and civilian personnel, only 6 of whom are focused on tasks 
related to the oversight and advocacy of the organization, 
training, and equipping of SOF. Furthermore, the addition of 
responsibilities for the counter-narcotics programs, building 
partner capacity initiatives, and humanitarian and disaster 
relief efforts of the DOD have further stretched the resources 
available to the office since its creation.
      The conferees intend for this provision to clarify and 
strengthen the original mandate provided by the Nunn-Cohen 
Amendment that established the ASD SOLIC. The provision is 
intended to facilitate the unique ``service secretary-like'' 
responsibilities of the ASD SOLIC by mirroring the 
administrative chain of command relationship between the 
service secretaries and the military services for issues 
impacting the special operations-peculiar (commonly referred to 
as Major Force Program-11) administration and support of SOCOM, 
including the readiness and organization of SOF, resources 
(including program planning, allocation, and execution) and 
equipment, and relevant civilian personnel matters. The 
provision shall not impact the operational chain of command for 
SOF activities or the ``service-common'' responsibilities of 
the military services including personnel and other matters 
that are not special operations-peculiar.
      The conferees are mindful of the congressionally-directed 
reductions to headquarters staff, but believe that the 
``service secretary-like'' mission of the ASD SOLIC should be 
more robustly resourced in order to rebalance the ASD SOLIC's 
lines of effort and fulfill its mandate under title 10, United 
States Code. The conferees also expect the codification of the 
Special Operations Policy and Oversight Council under this 
provision to improve the oversight and advocacy of SOF by 
integrating the efforts of the various functional offices with 
direct or tangential responsibilities for SOF issues, thereby 
partially mitigating the need for significant numbers of 
additional personnel.
      Additionally, the conferees note that the President 
approved the transfer of the mission for synchronizing global 
Department of Defense operations for countering weapons of mass 
destruction (CWMD) from United States Strategic Command 
(STRATCOM) to United States Special Operations Command on 
August 4, 2016. According to the Secretary of Defense 
``Expediting the transfer of CWMD responsibilities will allow 
USSOCOM to assume leadership for synchronization of Department 
of Defense (DoD) efforts in this critical mission, which will 
include updating the DoD CWMD Campaign Plan and instituting a 
comprehensive mission assessment process. I recommend this 
course of action to best ensure consistent, focused, and 
strengthened CWMD efforts across the Department and with our 
interagency and international partners.'' The conferees support 
the transfer of the CWMD global synchronization mission to 
SOCOM because it may ensure appropriate DOD and interagency 
attention for this critical mission, facilitate synchronization 
with counterterrorism and other transregional efforts, and 
strengthen the preparedness of U.S. Special Operations Forces 
to counter these threats. However, the conferees are concerned 
that the requirements to successfully implement this mission 
change may not be fully defined and understood at this time. 
The conferees believe that it is important to clearly define 
requirements for this mission transfer to ensure that resources 
needed by SOCOM to adequately carry out this mission are 
appropriately transferred and provided for across the future 
years defense program.
      Therefore, not later than 90 days after enactment of this 
Act, the conferees direct the Secretary of Defense to submit to 
the congressional defense committees the implementation plan 
for the transfer of the CWMD global synchronization mission. 
The report should include: an identification of resources, 
authorities, personnel or capabilities needed for this mission, 
and plans to implement those in the future years defense 
program; identification of the responsibilities, organizations, 
personnel and capabilities to be transferred from Strategic 
Command, including those at the Defense Threat Reduction 
Agency, to SOCOM to support the mission; oversight 
responsibilities within the Office of the Secretary of Defense; 
dates and criteria for the initial operating capability and 
full operating capability milestones.
Establishment of Unified Combatant Command for Cyber Operations (sec. 
        923)
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 911) that 
would establish a unified combatant command for cyber 
operations with the primary function to prepare cyber 
operations forces to carry out assigned missions.
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes with a clarifying amendment.
      The conferees note transparency of U.S. Cyber Command 
operations, forces, and other activities is critical to 
oversight of the command by Congress. The conferees expect the 
quarterly cyber operations briefings, mandated by Title 10, 
United States Code, Section 484, to continue to serve as a 
forum for providing information to Congress on all offensive 
and significant defensive military operations in cyberspace 
carried out by the unified combatant command in the preceding 
quarter and serve as mechanism for informing Congress of other 
activities of the command.
      In establishing the unified combatant command for cyber 
operations, the conferees also expect the Secretary of Defense, 
in conjunction with the relevant agencies and entities within 
the Department of Defense, to establish formal procedures for 
notification to Congress of significant operations in 
cyberspace on a timely basis. The conferees also expect the 
Secretary to establish formal procedures for notification to 
Congress of other significant command activities, such as 
delegation of new authorities to the United States Cyber 
Command Commander for cyberspace operations by the Secretary of 
Defense and relevant policy and internal oversight decisions 
affecting activities of the command.
Assigned forces of the combatant commands (sec. 924)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 1041) that 
would amend section 162 of title 10, United States Code, to 
require the secretaries of the military departments, at the 
direction of the Secretary of Defense, to assign forces under 
the jurisdiction of the secretaries concerned to the combatant 
commands to perform missions assigned to the combatant 
commands. Forces that are not so assigned shall remain under 
the direction and control of the respective military department 
secretaries for purposes of carrying out the secretaries' 
responsibilities under sections 3013, 5013, and 8013 including 
organizing, training, and mobilizing of all United States 
military forces.
      The House amendment contained a similar provision (sec. 
909).
      The House recedes.
Modifications to the requirements process (sec. 925)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 943) that 
would amend Section 181 of title 10, United States Code, to 
clarify and modify the joint and service-specific requirements 
process. This provision would ensure that the service chief of 
the relevant military service is responsible for all service-
specific requirements, and Joint Requirements Oversight Council 
(JROC) validation is not required before commencing a service-
specific acquisition program, except for a major defense 
acquisition program or a service-specific program designated 
for JROC oversight by the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of 
Staff. Additionally, this provision would require the Chairman 
to determine whether a major defense acquisition program meets 
joint requirements before the program or subprogram receives 
Milestone A approval or is otherwise initiated prior to 
Milestone B. The provision also would make the Vice Chairman of 
the Joint Chiefs of Staff the principal adviser to the Chairman 
on requirements.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes with an amendment that would modify the 
responsibilities of the JROC to focus on critical joint 
warfighting needs by: (1) determining gaps in joint military 
capabilities; (2) validating that proposed capabilities fulfill 
a gap; and (3) approving only joint performance requirements, 
such as interoperability or those involving more than one 
military service. The amendment would retain language from 
section 181 of title 10, United States Code, to clarify that 
the mission of the JROC shall include other matters assigned to 
it by the President or Secretary of Defense, and that the 
Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff shall appoint members to 
the JROC who are recommended by the Secretaries of the military 
departments. The amendment would retain the Under Secretary of 
Defense (Comptroller) as an advisor to the JROC and broaden the 
base of analytic support that shall assist the JROC to include 
organizations within the Department that have operations 
research, systems analysis, and cost estimation expertise. The 
amendment also would modify definitions of joint military 
capabilities and performance requirements.
      The amendment also would provide the JROC with authority 
to review performance requirements for other proposed or 
existing capabilities that the Chairman determines should be 
reviewed by the JROC. The conferees expect that this authority 
would be used only in limited situations, such as the review of 
proposed capabilities that may affect the joint force or an 
existing materiel capability solution that may no longer 
satisfy a previously identified gap. This authority should not 
supersede any other existing statutory or regulatory authority 
that pertains to the review and approval of requirements by 
other entities, such as the Missile Defense Agency or the 
authority to validate requirements provided to the Special 
Operations Command in Section 167 of title 10, United States 
Code.
      Additionally, the amendment requires that the Secretary 
of Defense establish an investment review process, to be co-
chaired by the Deputy Secretary of Defense and the Vice 
Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, to establish cost and 
fielding targets for new programs pursuant to section 2448a of 
this Act. To support establishment of cost and fielding 
targets, the amendment transfers from the JROC to the new 
investment review process the review of trade-offs among life-
cycle cost, schedule, and performance objectives. The conferees 
direct the Secretary to develop a plan for implementing this 
investment review process and to brief the defense committees 
on the elements of the plan no later than 6 months after 
enactment of the Act. In developing the plan, the conferees 
direct the Secretary to evaluate the Department's Analysis of 
Alternatives process for determining trade-offs and weapon 
system solutions in acquisition programs.
Assessments of combatant command structure (sec. 926)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 924) that 
would direct the Secretary of Defense to initiate a pilot 
program on the organization of a unified combatant command by 
organizing the subordinate commands of such unified combatant 
command in the form of joint task forces.
      The House amendment contained a similar provision (sec. 
914) that would require the Secretary of Defense to enter into 
a contract with an independent entity to conduct an assessment 
on the combatant command structure and to provide 
recommendations for improving the overall effectiveness of 
combatant command structures.
      The Senate recedes with an amendment clarifying that the 
Secretary of Defense shall conduct an assessment of the 
organization of the combatant commands and provide 
recommendations for changes to improve the effectiveness of 
such commands as well as enter into a contract for an 
independent assessment of the organization of the combatant 
commands.
      The conferees expect the assessments to address any 
deficiencies in the current organization of the combatant 
commands; to review the growth in the size of staffs of the 
unified combatant commands and whether such growth inhibits an 
effective and efficient performance; to determine whether the 
combatant commands are best aligned to address persistent, 
trans-regional, cross-functional, and multi-domain threats; and 
to assess whether the current structure encourages the unified 
combatant commands to be overly focused on mission support 
activities and not sufficiently focused on operational missions 
of the combatant commands.

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

Qualifications for appointment of the Secretaries of the military 
        departments (sec. 931)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 902) that 
would amend sections 3013, 5013, 8013 of title 10, United 
States Code, to prescribe management experience of large and 
complex organizations as qualification required for individuals 
to serve as the Secretaries of the Army, Navy, and Air Force, 
respectively.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes with an amendment that would establish 
that service secretaries shall, to the greatest extent 
practicable, be appointed from among persons most highly 
qualified for the position by reason of background and 
experience, including persons with appropriate management or 
leadership experience.
Enhanced personnel management authorities for the Chief of the National 
        Guard Bureau (sec. 932)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 944) that 
would amend section 1058 of title 10, United States Code, to 
enhance the personnel management authority of the Chief of the 
National Guard Bureau by authorizing the Chief to program for, 
appoint, employ, administer, detail, and assign federal 
civilian employees to provide full-time support to the non-
federalized National Guard. This provision clarifies that state 
adjutants general will continue to exercise their authority to 
hire, employ, and supervise the federal civilian employees 
providing full-time support to their state.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes.
Reorganization and redesignation of Office of Family Policy and Office 
        of Community Support for Military Families with Special Needs 
        (sec. 933)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 947) that 
would amend sections 1781(a) and 1781(c) of title 10, United 
States Code, to reorganize and redesignate the Office of Family 
Policy into the Office of Military Family Readiness Policy and 
the Office of Community Support for Military Families with 
Special Needs into the Office of Special Needs. The provision 
would reorganize the Office of Special Needs under the Office 
of Military Family Readiness Policy. The provision would also 
require the director of the Office of Military Family Readiness 
Policy to be a member of the Senior Executive Service or a 
general or flag officer.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes with an amendment that would repeal the 
requirement for the head of the office to be a member of the 
Senior Executive Service or a general or flag officer.
Redesignation of Assistant Secretary of the Air Force for Acquisition 
        as Assistant Secretary of the Air Force for Acquisition, 
        Technology, and Logistics (sec. 934)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 949) that 
would amend section 8016(b)(4)(A) of title 10, United States 
Code, to redesignate the title of ``Assistant Secretary of the 
Air Force for Acquisition'' to read ``Assistant Secretary of 
the Air Force for Acquisition, Technology, and Logistics'' in 
this and all other laws.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes.

          Subtitle E--Strategies, Reports, and Related Matters

National Defense Strategy (sec. 941)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 1096) that 
would require the Secretary of Defense to provide the 
congressional defense committees a national defense strategy 
that addresses the highest priority missions for the Department 
of Defense, the most critical and enduring threats to the 
national security of the United States and its allies, and the 
strategies that the Department will use to counter those 
threats.
      The House amendment contained a similar provision (sec. 
904).
      The House recedes with amendments clarifying the form and 
frequency of the national defense strategy and making other 
technical changes.
Commission on the National Defense Strategy for the United States (sec. 
        942)
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 903) that 
would establish a commission to be known as the ``Commission on 
the National Defense Strategy for the United States'' to 
examine and make recommendations with respect to national 
defense strategy for the United States.
      The Senate bill contained a similar provision (sec. 
1078).
      The Senate recedes with amendments addressing threat 
assessments and force structure and making other technical 
changes.
      The commission would replace the National Defense Panel 
and precede the development of the National Defense Strategy, 
required elsewhere in this Act. The conferees believe that such 
an independent effort to provide recommendations and identify 
key issues and areas of focus, would improve the Secretary's 
development of strategy. Furthermore, the conferees believe 
that such a bipartisan effort could help build national 
consensus on how to address complex and challenging national 
security issues.
Reform of the national military strategy (sec. 943)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 921(c)) that 
would revise the requirements of the national military 
strategy.
      The House amendment contained a similar provision (sec. 
905).
      The Senate recedes with technical amendments that include 
language from the Senate provision.
Form of annual national security strategy report (sec. 944)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (Sec. 1090) that 
would amend Section 108(c) of the National Security Act of 1947 
(50 U.S.C. 3043(c)) by requiring the national security strategy 
report to be delivered in classified form, but it may include 
an unclassified summary.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes with technical amendment that 
clarifies the report should be delivered to Congress.
Modification to independent study of national security strategy 
        formulation process (sec. 945)
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 906) that 
would amend section 1064 of the National Defense Authorization 
Act for Fiscal Year 2016 (Public Law 114-92), which requires an 
independent study of the national security strategy formulation 
process, by adding a requirement for the study to address the 
workforce responsible for conducting strategic planning and to 
examine how Congress fits into the strategy formulation 
process.
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes.

                       Subtitle F--Other Matters

Enhanced security programs for Department of Defense personnel and 
        innovation initiatives (sec. 951)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 973) that 
would require the Secretary of Defense to take actions to allow 
the Defense Security Service to conduct before October 1, 2017, 
all personnel background and security investigations 
adjudicated by the Consolidated Adjudication Facility of the 
Department of Defense. This provision would also strengthen 
insider threat detection programs by streamlining requirements 
for the collection, storage, and retention of information and 
would allow the Department to seek solutions from commercial 
companies and improve the process for the reciprocity of 
security clearances.
      The House amendment contained a similar provision (sec. 
215) that would require the Secretary of Defense to develop and 
sustain a new security clearance information technology 
architecture to replace the legacy system of the Office of 
Personnel Management. Further, this section would require the 
Secretary of Defense, Director of National Intelligence, and 
Director of the Office of Personnel Management to issue a 
governance charter to delineate responsibilities between 
organizations, as well as to review and revise as necessary the 
executive orders, statutes, and other authorities related to 
personnel security. This section would also require quarterly 
notifications to designated congressional committees until 
September 30, 2019.
      The House recedes with an amendment that would require 
the Department to prepare a plan to potentially transfer 
personal background and security clearance investigations back 
to the Department of Defense, include requirements for 
developing the information technology systems to support 
background investigations, and provide authority to waive some 
statutory deadlines related to the timelines for background 
investigations.
Modification of authority of the Secretary of Defense relating to 
        protection of the Pentagon Reservation and other Department of 
        Defense facilities in the National Capital Region (sec. 952)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (S. 972) that would 
amend section 2674 of title 10, United States Code, to update 
the authority of the Secretary of Defense to appoint law 
enforcement personnel to protect the Pentagon reservation and 
Department of Defense activities in the National Capital 
Region, and to set the rates of basic pay for law enforcement 
and security personnel whose permanent duty station is the 
Pentagon reservation.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes.
Modifications to requirements for accounting for members of the Armed 
        Forces and Department of Defense civilian employees listed as 
        missing (sec. 953)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 971) that 
would amend sections 1501, 1505, and 1513 of title 10, United 
States Code, to elevate oversight of recovery policy and 
operations for current conflicts from the Defense POW/MIA 
Accounting Agency (DPAA) to the Secretary of Defense, and to 
clarify that the DPAA director retains authority to establish 
policy and execute recovery operations for missing persons from 
past conflicts. In addition, this provision would clarify that 
the Department is required to account for missing persons only 
to the extent practicable upon discovery of remains of missing 
personnel.
      The House amendment contained a similar provision (sec. 
925).
      The Senate recedes.
Modifications to corrosion report (sec. 954)

Congress a report on the assessment of the current state of 
research into operational alternatives to anti-personnel

      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes with an amendment that would limit the 
funds available for the destruction of anti-personnel landmines 
until the Secretary of Defense submits to Congress the report 
required by section 1058 of the National Defense Authorization 
Act for Fiscal Year 2016 (Public Law 114-92), instead of a new 
report. The amendment would also require a briefing on the 
current state of research and development into operational

2023, as the required date for transition by the Air Force 
Reserve and Air National Guard. The amendment also includes

        1053)

to achieve its intended function.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes with amendments that clarify that the 
intent of the provision is to encourage effective use of the 
position, and to remove a requirement that any officer 
nominated to the position have significant interaction with the 
CIA within the five years prior to appointment. The conferees 
learned that such a requirement might impede--rather than 
encourage--nominees from outside of the special operations 
community. Therefore, the conferees believe that the 
relationship between the CIA and the Department's conventional 
forces should be encouraged, especially given the evolving and 
complex global threats faced by the United States.

      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 1052) that 
would require the Secretary of Defense, prior to the provision

interfere with the mission and functions of the Department, or 
if it does so interfere, that it is in the national security 
interest of the United States.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes with a clarifying amendment.

        members of the Armed Forces from carrying out otherwise lawful 
        duties based on member sex (sec. 1056)

would prohibit a military commission established under chapter 
47A of title 10, United States Code, from acting by order, 
ruling, finding, or otherwise that a member of the Armed Forces 
may not perform duties otherwise lawfully assigned if the 
prohibition is based solely on the gender of the servicemember. 
The provision would also vacate any such order issued before 
the date of enactment of this Act.
      The House amendment contained a similar provision (sec. 
1039).
      The House recedes with an amendment that would prohibit 
any order or other determination of a military commission that 
would restrict a member of the Armed Forces from carrying out 
otherwise lawfully assigned duties where the basis for such 
prohibition or restriction is the sex of the member. Upon 
enactment, the rule of prohibition established under this 
provision would apply to a military commission upon a motion to 
reconsider any such determination that was issued prior to 
enactment of this Act.
Congressional notification requirements for sensitive military 
        operations (sec. 1057)

                    Subtitle F--Studies and Reports

Temporary continuation of certain Department of Defense reporting 
        requirements (sec. 1061)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 1082) that 
would repeal the requirements for several reports that are 
mandated by an annual National Defense Authorization Act and by 
other public laws.
      The Senate bill also contained a provision (sec. 1083) 
that would repeal several requirements for the Department of 
Defense to provide reports that have been added by an annual 
National Defense Authorization Act.
      The House amendment contained a similar provision (1061) 
that would repeal several reporting requirements as well.
      The Senate recedes with an amendment that would provide 
for the repeal of those reporting requirements agreed to by 
both the House and Senate as listed in the final bill.
Reports on programs managed under alternative compensatory control 
        measures in the Department of Defense (sec. 1062)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 1080) that 
would require the Department of Defense (DOD) to provide 
certain reports and notifications regarding programs that DOD 
manages under alternative compensatory control measures (ACCM).
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes.
      The Department of Defense typically uses the ACCM system 
to manage programs of lesser sensitivity or programs with a 
less enduring life than the programs that it manages under 
special access (SAP) program channels. The conferees believe 
that DOD needs to provide more rigorous oversight of and 
reporting on ACCM programs to the congressional defense 
committees. Despite several directions from Congress to the DOD 
to produce better information and inventories of these 
programs, DOD has failed to do so. Therefore, the conferees see 
no alternative but to include legislation on the matter, and 
note that failure to use and report ACCMs accordingly will 
jeopardize future reauthorizations.
Matters for inclusion in report on designation of countries for which 
        rewards may be paid under Department of Defense rewards program 
        (sec. 1063)
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 1062) 
that would modify section 127b(h) of title 10, United States

        combatant commands and annual report on combatant command

would require the Chief of Staff of the Army, Chief of Naval 
Operations, Chief of Staff of the Air Force, Commandant of the 
Marine Corps, and commanders of the combatant commands (COCOM) 
to submit to the Secretary of Defense, Chairman of the Joint 
Chiefs of Staff, and congressional defense committees a report 
on the unfunded priorities no later than 25 days after the date 
on which the President submits the annual budget request.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes with a technical amendment that would 
change the due date for the report from 25 days to 10 days 
after the budget request is submitted to Congress and amends 
section 153(c)(1) of title 10, United States Code to require 
the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff to submit an annual 
report on COCOM requirements no later than 25 days after the 
date on which the President submits the budget request to 
Congress.
      The conferees note that the COCOM commanders can satisfy 
the requirement regarding unfunded priorities, as set forth by 
this provision through their submission of the integrated 
priority lists (IPL), provided that the IPLs contain sufficient 
detail on the commands' requirements shortfalls and any 
relevant or appropriate funding recommendations.

spectrum used by the Department of Defense and establish an 
enduring review process that considers all requirements 
relating to such spectrum and ensures that all uses of such 
spectrum, regardless of the classification of such uses, are 
involved in the decision-making process of the Department 
concerning the potential sharing, reassigning, or relocating of 
such spectrum, of the relocation of the uses by the Department 
of such spectrum.
Requirement for notice and reporting to Committees on Armed Services of 
        certain expenditures of funds by Defense Intelligence Agency 
        (sec. 1066)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 1081) that 
would add the Armed Services Committees of the Senate and the 
House of Representatives to a reporting requirement under 50 
U.S.C. 3038(c) that allows the Defense Intelligence Agency to

      The Senate recedes with a clarifying amendment.

        Central America (sec. 1069)
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 1065) 
that would require the Secretary of Defense and the Secretary 
of State to jointly submit a report to specified congressional 
committees not later than 180 days after enactment of this Act

such breaches have the potential to jeopardize both the 
financial security as well as the physical security of these 
individuals. The conferees urge the Department of Defense to 
continue to strengthen ongoing initiatives and to develop and 
implement new initiatives to protect the personally 
identifiable information of members of the Armed Forces, 
government civilians, and their families. Further, the 
conferees expect the Department to keep the Committees on Armed 
Services of the Senate and the House of Representatives

as well as any trends related to fraudulent or suspicious 
activity that targets the personally identifiable information 
of members of the Armed Forces, government civilians, and their 
families.

civilian workforce under the jurisdiction of each Secretary 
which provides for the projected size of the civilian workforce 
in the current year and for each year in the future-years 
defense program to include a justification of any projected 
increases.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes.
Repeal of requirement for annual strategic workforce plan for the 
        Department of Defense (sec. 1102)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 1102) that 
would repeal the reporting requirement for the Department of 
Defense to submit a biennial strategic workforce plan, as 
contained in section 115b of title 10, United States Code.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes.

would require training for employment and human resources 
personnel at the Department of Defense on special recruitment, 
hiring, special pays, and retention authorities for positions 
at United States Cyber Command. In addition to training, 
written guidance would also be required to inform such 
employees of the Department of Defense on which authorities are 
available and how to use those authorities.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes with a technical amendment.
Public-private talent exchange (sec. 1104)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 1107) that 
would allow Department of Defense employees to work in the 
private sector and private industry employees to work within 
the Department of Defense. Exchanges would encourage Department 
of Defense employees to gain skills that align with functional 
communities or occupational specialties.
      The House amendment contained a similar provision (sec. 
1113).
      The Senate recedes with an amendment that would clarify 
the conditions under which a temporary assignment of an 
employee of the Department of Defense may be made and the terms 
and conditions for private-sector employees assigned to a 
Department of Defense organization.
      The conferees note that as this authority would build on 
programs like the Intergovernmental Personnel Act (IPA), the 
committee understands that the Department of Defense has 
established procedures for monitoring and controlling salaries 
and expenses for the IPA program, including a limitation on 
salaries that may be paid or reimbursed for IPAs, and expects 
that such constraints will be applied to the pilot authorized 
by this provision.
Temporary and term appointments in the competitive service in the 
        Department of Defense (sec. 1105)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 1103) that

Direct-hire authority for the Department of Defense for post-secondary 
        students and recent graduates (sec. 1106)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 1106) that 
would establish a Department of Defense (DoD) civilian on-
campus recruiting authority under title 10 as an alternative to 
the federal government-wide Pathways program (established by 
Executive Order 13562) and other Title 5 hiring authorities. 
This proposal would facilitate DoD recruiters' efforts to 
recruit students directly to civilian positions using a new 
hiring authority expressly designed for this purpose. Hiring 
managers and recruiters, who already travel to specific schools 
with programs they want to target, would be able to involve 
candidates in a rigorous interview process, and make 
conditional offers on the spot. This would allow DoD to compete 
for highly qualified students and recent graduates. This 
authority would be limited to no more than 15 percent of the 
total number of hires made into professional and administrative 
occupations of the Department at the GS-11 level and below 
annually and would sunset four years after the date on which 
the Secretary first appoints a recent graduate or current post-
secondary student to a position under this section.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes with an amendment that would sunset the 
provision on September 30, 2021 and require the Secretary of 
Defense, to the extent practical, to provide public notice and 
advertising of positions offered under this authority.
Temporary increase in maximum amount of voluntary separation incentive 
        pay authorized for civilian employees of the Department of 
        Defense (sec. 1107)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 1109) that 
would increase the maximum amount of separation pay authorized 
for Voluntary Separation Incentive Pay (VSIP) from the current 
ceiling of $25,000 to $40,000 for civilian employees of the 
Department of Defense. This increased maximum amount would 
adjust for inflation from when VSIP was first authorized for 
the Department of Defense in 1993. The Chief Human Capital 
Officers Act of 2002 (Public Law 107-296) provided government-
wide authority to provide VSIP. The maximum payable amount has 
not been adjusted since VSIP was first authorized.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes with an amendment that would sunset the 
provision on September 30, 2018.
Extension of the rate of overtime pay for Department of the Navy 
        employees performing work aboard or dockside in support of the

        (sec. 1108)
      The Senate bill contains a provision (sec. 1136) that 
would amend sections 5542 and 5544 of title 5, United States 
Code, to allow overtime pay equal to one and one-half times the 
hourly rate of basic pay for nonexempt Federal civilian 
employees assigned to temporary duty travel in exempt areas as 
defined by the Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938.
      The House amendment contains no similar provision.
      The House recedes with an amendment that would extend the 
authority to pay overtime to Department of the Navy employees 
performing work aboard or dockside in support of the nuclear-
powered aircraft carrier forward deployed in Japan through 
September 30, 2018.
Limitation on number of DOD SES positions (sec. 1109)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 1112) that 
would limit the number of employees at the Department of 
Defense who are in the Senior Executive Service (SES). The 
limitation in this provision would reduce by 25 percent the 
number of covered SES employees of the Department, which were 
employed on December 31, 2015. The reduction required by this 
provision would be effective on January 1, 2019. Covered SES 
employees would not include ``Highly Qualified Experts,'' which 
the provision limits to 200. The limitation would not apply to 
those employees of the Department who are appointed by the 
President and confirmed by the Senate.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes with an amendment that would limit the 
number of senior executives authorized for the Department of 
Defense to 1,260, and Highly Qualified Experts to 200.

        Department of Defense workforce (sec. 1110)

would provide each secretary of a military department with the 
authority to appoint qualified candidates possessing a finance, 
accounting, management, or actuarial science degree to

positions within the Department of Defense workforce. The 
authority would be limited to 10 percent of the total number of 
finance, accounting, management, actuarial science, or 
financial management positions within each military department 
that are filled as of the close of the fiscal year last ending 
before the start of such calendar year. The authority would 
expire on January 1, 2023.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes with an amendment that would include 
within this direct appointment authority those possessing a 
degree or related experience with business administration.
Repeal of certain basis for appointment of a retired member of the 
        Armed Forces to Department of Defense position within 180 days 
        of retirement (sec. 1111)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 1110) that 
would amend section 3326 of title 5, United States Code, to 
repeal subsection (b)(3) which allows the Secretary concerned 
to waive the restriction on the appointment of retired members 
of the armed forces to positions in the civil service in the 
Department of Defense within 180 days of their retirement based 
on a state of national emergency.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.

quite successfully employed, as well as preserve the agency's 
ability to compete with the private sector for technical talent 
through flexibility in setting compensation levels.
      The House amendment contained a similar provision (sec.

        Office of the Director of Operational Test and Evaluation (sec. 
        1125)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 1123) that 
would give the directors of Department of Defense test and 
evaluations facilities the same direct hire authorities already 
provided to the directors of the Department's science and 
technology laboratories.
      The House amendment contained a similar provision (sec. 
1101) that would provide direct hire authority for Department 
of Defense industrial base facilities located in the United 
States, as well as the Major Range and Test Facilities Base.
      The Senate recedes with an amendment to clarify and 
enhance several aspects of the authorities.
      The conferees direct the Secretary of Defense to provide 
a briefing to the House and Senate Armed Services Committees as 
well as the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform 
and the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs 
Committee, not later than 60 days after the end of fiscal year 
2018 and again each year until the temporary authorities

Defense has difficulty accessing highly skilled non-veterans 
into its civilian labor force due to strict preference eligible

of Department of Defense preference eligible hiring practices 
is overdue. Therefore, the conferees direct the Secretary of 
Defense, in coordination with the Secretary of Labor, Secretary 
of Veterans Affairs, and the Director of the Office of 
Personnel Management to submit a report no later than May 1, 
2017, to the Committees on Armed Services of the Senate and 
House of Representatives, the Committee on Homeland Security 
and Governmental Affairs of the Senate, and the Committee on 
Oversight and Government Reform of the House of 
Representatives. Such report shall consist of a coordinated 
overview of the Veterans preference process in Federal hiring 
and shall contain the following elements: (1) an analysis of 
how the current process of applying preference eligible points 
works in practice, including initial hires and the process as 
employees move and advance into new positions; (2) a review of 
positive impacts realized in the past five years of preference 
eligible hiring; (3) an analysis of the impact of preference 
eligible hiring on agencies' ability to hire qualified non-
veteran applicants; (4) an analysis of the impact of preference 
eligible hiring on agencies' ability to hire qualified non-
veteran recent graduates and young talent needed to build the

             Title XII--Matters Relating to Foreign Nations

                  Subtitle A--Assistance and Training

One-year extension of logistical support for coalition forces 
        supporting certain United States military operations (sec. 
        1201)
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 1201) 
that would amend section 1234 of the National Defense 
Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2008 (Public Law 110-181), as 
most recently amended by section 1201 of the National Defense 
Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2016 (Public Law 114-92), by 
authorizing the Secretary of Defense to provide supplies, 
services, transportation, and other logistical support to 
coalition forces supporting U.S. operations in the Republic of 
Iraq and the Islamic Republic of Afghanistan during fiscal year 
2017.
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes.
Special Defense Acquisition Fund matters (sec. 1202)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 1202) that 
would increase the obligation authority for the Special Defense 
Acquisition Fund.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes with an amendment that would require 
quarterly spending plans and annual inventories to ensure more 
regular and routine oversight and alignment of the use of such 
funds with security assistance priorities and national security 
objectives.
      The amendment also requires that $500.0 million of the 
Special Defense Acquisition Fund may only be used to procure 
and stock precision guided munitions that may be required by 
partner and allied forces to enhance the effectiveness of their 
contribution to overseas contingency operations conducted or 
supported by the United States. If necessary, the conferees 
understand that nothing in this provision would preclude the 
Secretary of Defense from using precision guided munitions that 
have been procured and stocked using the Special Defense 
Acquisition Fund to meet immediate United States military 
requirements.
Codification of authority for support of special operations to combat 
        terrorism (sec. 1203)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 1203) that 
would establish a new section 127e in title 10, United States 
Code, to codify section 1208 of the Ronald W. Reagan National 
Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2005 (Public Law 108-
375), as most recently amended by section 1274 of the National 
Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2016 (Public Law 114-
92). The provision would increase the annual cap on the 
authority from $85.0 million to $100.0 million and would limit 
the amount available to support any particular military 
operation under the authority to $10.0 million in a fiscal year 
as well as modify notification requirements.
      The House amendment contained a similar provision that 
would modify and extend section 1208 of Public Law 108-375, as 
amended, for 3 years.
      The House recedes with an amendment that would eliminate 
the limitation of $10.0 million on support to any particular 
military operation in a fiscal year and make other clarifying 
changes to the reporting requirements associated with this 
authority.
      The conferees express strong support for ``section 1208'' 
authority and its importance in countering threats posed by 
violent extremist groups. The conferees believe that the 
maturity of the authority, the need for predictability when 
working with foreign partner forces, and the enduring nature of 
the threats facing our nation support the codification of this 
authority. The conferees believe that an increase of the annual 
cap to $100.0 million will provide for stability and sufficient 
flexibility to address unforeseen contingencies in future 
years.
      The conferees expect the Department to exercise judicious 
use of the authority and conduct appropriate planning to 
preserve the flexibility afforded by the codification and 
expansion of this authority.
      Furthermore, the conferees expect the Department to 
appropriately scope support provided under this authority to 
address operational requirements in support of defined 
counterterrorism missions. This authority should not be used 
solely for the purpose of building the capacity of or 
engagement with foreign partner forces. When operational 
requirements no longer require the use of this tailored 
authority, support for foreign partner forces should be 
expeditiously terminated or transitioned to other authorities 
and funding sources that are more appropriately designed for 
longer-term, sustained capacity-building efforts.
Independent evaluation of Strategic Framework for Department of Defense 
        security cooperation (sec. 1204)
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 1206) 
that would require the Secretary of Defense to enter into an 
agreement with a federally funded research and development 
center, or another appropriate independent entity, with 
expertise in security cooperation to conduct an assessment of 
the Strategic Framework for Department of Defense Security 
Cooperation and submit a report to the congressional defense 
committees, the Committee on Foreign Relations of the Senate, 
and the Committee on Foreign Affairs of the House of 
Representatives not later than November 1, 2017, containing the 
assessment.
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes with a technical amendment.
Sense of Congress regarding an assessment, monitoring, and evaluation 
        framework for security cooperation (sec. 1205)
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 1207) 
that would express the sense of Congress that the Secretary of 
Defense should develop and maintain an assessment, monitoring, 
and evaluation framework for security cooperation with foreign 
countries to ensure accountability and foster implementation of 
best practices.
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes.

      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 1201) that 
would extend through fiscal year 2019 the Commanders' Emergency 
Response Program (CERP) in Afghanistan under section 1201 of 
the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2012 
(Public Law 112-81) as amended. The provision would also expand 
the authorization to make certain payments to redress injury 
and loss in Iraq in accordance with section 1211 of the 
National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2016 to 
Afghanistan and Syria.
      The House amendment contained a similar provision (sec. 
1211).
      The Senate recedes with a technical amendment.
Extension of authority to acquire products and services produced in 
        countries along a major route of supply to Afghanistan (sec. 
        1212)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 883) that 
would amend section 801(f) of the National Defense 
Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2010 (Public Law 111-84) to 
extend by 2 years the authority to acquire products and 
services produced in countries along the major route of supply 
to Afghanistan.
      The House amendment contained a similar provision (sec. 
1213) that would extend the authority by 1 year.
      The House recedes.
Extension and modification of authority to transfer defense articles 
        and provide defense services to the military and security 
        forces of Afghanistan (sec. 1213)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 1211) that 
would extend through December 31, 2017, the authority under 
section 1222 of the National Defense Authorization Act for 
Fiscal Year 2013 (Public Law 112-239) to transfer defense 
articles being drawn down in Afghanistan, and to provide 
defense services in connection with such transfers, to the 
military and security forces of Afghanistan. The provision 
would also extend through fiscal year 2017 the exemption for 
excess defense articles (EDA) transferred from Department of 
Defense stocks in Afghanistan from counting toward the annual 
limitation on the aggregate value of EDA transferred under 
section 516 of the Foreign Assistance Act of 1961 (Public Law 
87-195). The provision would also convert certain quarterly 
reports into an annual report.
      The House amendment contained a similar provision (sec. 
1241).
      The House recedes.
Special immigrant status for certain Afghans (sec. 1214)
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 1216) 
that would extend the authorization for the Afghan Special 
Immigrant Visa (SIV) program for one year and narrow the 
eligibility requirements for Afghan SIV candidates.
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes with a technical amendment that would 
modify eligibility requirements for applicants to include those 
that perform sensitive and trusted activities for the United 
States Government in Afghanistan; extend the underlying SIV 
program for four additional years; and provide an additional 
1,500 visas. The conferees believe that any Afghan performing 
sensitive and trusted activities for or on the behalf of the 
United States Government should be eligible for the Special 
Immigrant Visa program.
Modification to semiannual report on enhancing security and stability 
        in Afghanistan (sec. 1215)
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 1217) 
that would add the requirement for an assessment of the 
implementation of the Afghan Personnel and Pay System to the 
report on enhancing the strategic partnership between the 
United States and Afghanistan.
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes with a technical amendment.
Prohibition on use of funds for certain programs and projects of the 
        Department of Defense in Afghanistan that cannot be safely 
        accessed by United States Government personnel (sec. 1216)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 1213) that 
would prohibit the obligation or expenditure of amounts 
available to the Department of Defense for a construction or 
other infrastructure program or project in Afghanistan unless 
certain conditions are met. The provision also provides for 
certain waivers.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes with an amendment that would provide 
for an additional waiver by the Commander of the Combined 
Security Transition Command--Afghanistan for projects greater 
than $1.0 million, but less than $20.0 million.
Improvement of oversight of United States Government efforts in 
        Afghanistan (sec. 1217)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 1215) that 
would require the Lead Inspector General for Operation 
Freedom's Sentinel, in coordination with certain other 
inspectors general, to submit a report on oversight activities 
in Afghanistan to optimize the utilization of oversight 
resources through planning, coordination, and reduction of 
redundancies in oversight activities.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes with an amendment that would add the 
requirement to report on the professional standards used by 
inspectors general to ensure the accuracy, precision, and 
overall quality of the products they publish regarding 
Afghanistan.
      The conferees note that inspectors general play a crucial 
role in helping to ensure appropriate oversight and efficient 
use of federal resources in challenging environments, including 
Afghanistan. The conferees believe the Inspectors General 
operating in Afghanistan should work together to ensure 
appropriate oversight occurs at all levels, with minimal burden 
to U.S. military operations, diplomatic efforts and 
developmental projects. The conferees urge additional efforts 
to optimize coordination and to maximize the use of 
professional standards among inspectors general in Afghanistan 
to ensure the most efficient and effective use of oversight 
resources.
Extension and modification of authority for reimbursement of certain 
        coalition nations for support provided to United States 
        military operations (sec. 1218)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 1214) that 
would provide the Secretary of Defense the authority to 
reimburse Pakistan up to $800.0 million in fiscal year 2017 for 
certain activities that enhance the security situation in the 
northwest regions of Pakistan and along the Afghanistan-
Pakistan border. The provision would also make $300.0 million 
of this amount contingent upon a certification from the 
Secretary of Defense that Pakistan is taking demonstrable steps 
against the Haqqani Network in Pakistan. The Senate bill also 
contained a companion provision (sec. 1212) that would extend 
and modify the authority for reimbursement of coalition nations 
in support of U.S. operations in Iraq and Afghanistan to 
include Syria.
      The House amendment contained a similar provision (sec. 
1212) that would extend the authority for reimbursement of 
coalition nations for support provided to the United States for 
military operations in Iraq and Afghanistan through December 
31, 2017. The provision would make $1.1 billion in funding 
available for the overall coalition support funds program, 
including up to $900.0 million for reimbursement of Pakistan. 
The provision would also make $450.0 million of this amount 
contingent upon a certification from the Secretary of Defense 
that Pakistan is taking demonstrable steps against the Haqqani 
Network in Pakistan.
      The Senate recedes with an amendment to merge the three 
provisions into one provision. The revised provision would 
extend the authorization of the coalition support funds program 
for reimbursement of nations in support of U.S. operations in 
Iraq and Afghanistan. The provision would expand the 
authorization to include support for operations in Syria and 
would retain the authority to provide such reimbursement to 
Pakistan. In addition, the provision would include a modified 
list of security enhancement activities for which Pakistan 
would be eligible for reimbursement.
      The provision authorizes $1.1 billion for the overall 
coalition support funds program, including up to $900.0 million 
for Pakistan. Of this amount, the provision would make $400.0 
million contingent upon a certification from the Secretary of 
Defense that Pakistan is taking demonstrable steps against the 
Haqqani Network in Pakistani territory.
      The conferees remain concerned about the persecution of 
groups seeking political or religious freedom in Pakistan, 
including the Balochi, Sindhi, and Hazara ethnic groups, as 
well as religious groups, including Christian, Hindu, and 
Ahmadiyya Muslim. Consequently, the conferees believe that the 
Secretary of Defense should continue to closely monitor the 
provision of U.S. security assistance to Pakistan and ensure 
that Pakistan is not using its military or any assistance 
provided by the United States to persecute minority groups.
      In addition, the conferees note that the renewed 
authority allows for reimbursement of Pakistan for security 
activities along the Afghanistan-Pakistan border, including 
providing training and equipment for the Pakistan Frontier 
Corps Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. However, the conferees are concerned 
that Pakistan continues to delay or deny visas for U.S. 
personnel that could assist with the provision of such 
training. Given this situation, the conferees recommend that 
the Department of Defense condition reimbursements for training 
and equipment with appropriate access by U.S. personnel.
      The conferees note that while the pilot program for 
stability activities in the Federally Administered Tribal Areas 
that was authorized under Section 1212 of the National Defense 
Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2016 (P.L.114-92) would not 
be specifically reauthorized by this provision, the activities 
covered by the pilot program would be eligible for 
reimbursement under the modifications made by this provision. 
The conferees also note that coalition support funds 
appropriated by the Consolidated Appropriations Act of 2016 
(P.L.114-113) remain eligible for obligation for two fiscal 
years. As a result, the conferees expect that the Department of 
Defense will continue activities under the pilot program 
through the end of fiscal year 2017.

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

Modification and extension of authority to provide assistance to the 
        vetted Syrian opposition (sec. 1221)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 1221) that 
would extend and modify the authority under section 1209 of the 
Carl Levin and Howard P. `Buck' McKeon National Defense 
Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2015 (Public Law 113-291; 128 
Stat. 3541) to assist the vetted elements of the Syrian 
opposition for certain purposes to December 31, 2019, as well 
as strike the prior approval reprogramming requirement and 
replace it with a notification requirement before carrying out 
new initiatives.
      The House amendment contained a similar provision (sec. 
1221) that would extend the authority for one year and add 
certain certification requirements.
      The Senate recedes with an amendment that would extend 
the authority through December 31, 2018, maintain the 
reprogramming requirement, and strike the certification 
requirements.
Modification and extension of authority to provide assistance to 
        counter the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (sec. 1222)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 1222) that 
would extend the authority under section 1236 of the Carl Levin 
and Howard P. ``Buck'' McKeon National Defense Authorization 
Act for Fiscal Year 2015 (Public Law 113-291; 128 Stat. 3559) 
to military and other security forces of or associated with the 
Government of Iraq, including Kurdish and tribal security 
forces, with a national mission, to counter the Islamic State 
in Iraq and the Levant (ISIL) to December 31, 2019.
      The House amendment contained a similar provision (sec. 
1222) that would extend the authority to December 31, 2017.
      The House recedes with an amendment that would extend the 
authority through December 31, 2018.
      The conferees direct the Secretary of Defense in 
coordination with the Secretary of State to brief the 
congressional defense committees, the Senate Foreign Relations 
Committee, and the House Foreign Affairs Committee, not later 
than 90 days after the enactment of this Act, on the campaign 
to liberate Mosul, Iraq from the control of ISIL. The briefing 
on the campaign to liberate Mosul shall also contain the plan 
to hold Mosul after liberation and include a detailed blueprint 
on how humanitarian, reconstruction, and stabilization 
assistance will be provided to support a follow on governance 
structure.
      The conferees note the importance of the provision of up 
to $480 million in stipends and sustainment through the 
Government of Iraq to the Iraqi Kurdish Peshmerga and urge the 
Secretary of Defense, in coordination with the Secretary of 
State, to provide such assistance through the Government of 
Iraq to Sunni tribal security forces and other local security 
forces with a national security mission. The conferees remind 
the Secretaries that local security forces with a national 
security mission may include, in addition to Sunni tribal 
elements, local security forces that are committed to 
protecting highly vulnerable ethnic and religious communities, 
such as Yazidi, Christian, Assyrian, and Turkoman communities, 
against the ISIL threat.
Extension and modification of authority to support operations and 
        activities of the Office of Security Cooperation in Iraq (sec. 
        1223)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 1223) that 
would extend through fiscal year 2017 the authority under 
section 1215 of the National Defense Authorization Act for 
Fiscal Year 2012 (Public Law 112-81) as amended, for the 
Secretary of Defense to support the operations and activities 
of the Office of Security Cooperation in Iraq (OSC-I).
      The House amendment contained a similar provision (sec. 
1223) that would extend the authority for OSC-I for one year 
through fiscal year 2017 and authorize the Secretary of Defense 
to conduct training with the Iraqi Border Police.
      The Senate recedes with an amendment that would extend 
the authority through fiscal year 2017.
      The conferees direct the Secretary of Defense and the 
Secretary of State to submit to the congressional defense 
committees, the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, and the 
House Foreign Affairs Committee, a plan to transition the 
activities conducted by OSC-I but funded by the Department of 
Defense to another entity or transition the funding of such 
activities to another source not later than the end of fiscal 
year 2018.
Limitation on provision of man-portable air defense systems to the 
        vetted Syrian opposition during fiscal year 2017 (sec. 1224)
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 1229) 
that would prohibit the funds authorized to be appropriated or 
otherwise made available for the Department of Defense for 
fiscal year 2017 to be obligated or expended to transfer or 
facilitate the transfer of man-portable air defense systems 
(MANPADs) to any entity in Syria.
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes with an amendment that would require 
the Secretary of Defense and Secretary of State to notify the 
congressional defense committees, the Senate Foreign Relations 
Committee, and the House Foreign Affairs Committee should a 
determination be made to provide MANPADs to elements of the 
appropriately vetted Syrian opposition. The conferees expect 
that should such a determination be made, the requirement for 
the provision of such a capability and the decision to provide 
it would be thoroughly vetted by and receive broad support from 
the interagency.
Modification of annual report on military power of Iran (sec. 1225)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 1226) that 
would add additional elements concerning cyber capabilities to 
the annual report on the military power of Iran required under 
section 1245 of the National Defense Authorization Act for 
Fiscal Year 2010 (Public Law 111-84).
      The House amendment contained a similar provision (sec. 
1253).
      The Senate recedes with a technical amendment.
Quarterly report on confirmed ballistic missile launches from Iran 
        (sec. 1226)
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 1259S) 
that would require the President to notify Congress within 48 
hours of a suspected ballistic missile launch, including a 
test, by Iran. The President shall further notify Congress of 
the entities involved in the launch and a description of the 
steps the President will take in response to the launch, 
including diplomatic efforts and the imposition of unilateral 
sanctions.
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes with an amendment that would replace 
the house provision with the requirement for a quarterly report 
to Congress by the Director of National Intelligence describing 
any confirmed ballistic missile launches by Iran. An additional 
quarterly report to Congress from the Secretary of State and 
the Secretary of Treasury is required setting forth a 
description of the efforts, if any, to impose unilateral 
sanctions against entities or individuals in connection with a 
confirmed ballistic missile launch from Iran and any diplomatic 
efforts to impose multilateral sanctions.

         Subtitle D--Matters Relating to the Russian Federation

Military response options to Russian Federation violation of INF Treaty 
        (sec. 1231)
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 1232) 
that would withhold $10.0 million of funding for the Department 
of Defense to provide support services to the Executive Office 
of the President until the Secretary of Defense submits to the 
appropriate congressional committees a plan for the development 
of military capabilities in response to the Russian Federation 
non-compliance with its obligations under the INF Treaty, as 
required by section 1243(d) of the National Defense 
Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2016 (Public Law 114-92; 129 
Stat. 1062).
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes with an amendment that would drop 
section (a)(1) from the House provision. The conferees note 
that the plan contained in the report previously submitted to 
Congress, pursuant to the above Public Law, was insufficient 
and failed to address adequately the military response options 
that were outlined in congressional testimony presented by Mr. 
Brian McKeon, Deputy Under Secretary of Defense for Policy. For 
example, in testimony to the House Armed Services Committee on 
December 10, 2014, Mr. McKeon stated: ``The range of options we 
are looking at in the military sphere fall into three broad 
categories: Active defenses to counter intermediate-range 
ground-launched cruise missiles; counterforce capabilities to 
prevent intermediate-range ground-launched cruise missile 
attacks; and countervailing strike capabilities to enhance U.S. 
or allied forces.'' The conferees note that nothing in this 
provision is intended to direct testing or deployment of 
systems that would cause the United States to violate the INF 
Treaty.
Limitation on military cooperation between the United States and the 
        Russian Federation (sec. 1232)
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 1233) 
that would prohibit funds authorized to be appropriated or 
otherwise made available by this Act through fiscal year 2017 
from being used for bilateral military-to-military contact 
between the United States and the Russian Federation without 
certain certifications by the Secretary of Defense, in 
consultation with the Secretary of State, or unless certain 
waiver conditions are met.
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes.
Extension and modification of authority on training for Eastern 
        European national military forces in the course of multilateral 
        exercises (sec. 1233)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 1232) that 
would extend through fiscal year 2019 the authority under 
section 1251 of the National Defense Authorization Act for 
Fiscal Year 2016 (Public Law 114-92) for the Secretary of 
Defense to provide multilateral or regional training, and pay 
the incremental expenses of participating in such training, for 
countries in Eastern Europe that are a signatory to the 
Partnership for Peace Framework Documents but not a member of 
the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) or became a NATO 
member after January 1, 1999. The provision would also add the 
authority to utilize under this section amounts authorized to 
be appropriated for certain purposes under the European 
Deterrence Initiative.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes with an amendment that would extend the 
authority through fiscal year 2018 and pay the incremental 
expenses incurred by a country as a result of national security 
forces participation in certain types of training. The 
conferees note that the purpose of such training is to promote 
interoperability, improve the ability of participating 
countries to respond to external threats including from hybrid 
warfare, and increase the ability of NATO to take collective 
action when required.
      The conferees note the importance of regular updates on 
the status and effectiveness of the implementation and planned 
use of the authority and direct the Secretary of Defense to 
brief, not later than 120 days after the enactment of this Act, 
the Committees on Armed Services of the Senate and the House of 
Representatives on the overall strategy to increase 
capabilities and develop key participants' skills under this 
authority, the expenditure of funds under this authority to 
date, and planned future activities, including the types of 
national security forces trained or planned to be trained under 
this authority.
Prohibition on availability of funds relating to sovereignty of the 
        Russian Federation over Crimea (sec. 1234)
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 1236) 
that would prohibit funds authorized to be appropriated or made 
available by this Act through fiscal year 2017 for the 
Department of Defense to implement any activity that recognizes 
the sovereignty of the Russian Federation over Crimea. The 
provision included a waiver if the Secretary of Defense, with 
the concurrence of the Secretary of State, determines that to 
do so would be in the national security interest of the United 
States and submits a notification of the waiver to certain 
Congressional committees.
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes.
Annual report on military and security developments involving the 
        Russian Federation (sec. 1235)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 1233) that 
would add additional elements to the annual report on Russian 
military and security developments required under section 1245 
of the Carl Levin and Howard P. ``Buck'' McKeon National 
Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2015 (Public Law 113-
291) including an assessment of Russian operations in Ukraine 
and an analysis of the nuclear strategy and associated doctrine 
of Russia.
      The House amendment contained a similar provision that 
would require reporting on the Russian Federation's foreign 
military deployments.
      The House recedes with an amendment that would add the 
Russian Federation's foreign military deployments, including 
significant deployments of naval vessels to foreign countries, 
to the annual report.
Limitation on use of funds to vote to approve or otherwise adopt any 
        implementing decision of the Open Skies Consultative Commission 
        and related requirements (sec. 1236)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 1079) that 
would require the Secretary of Defense to submit to the 
appropriate committees of Congress, an annual report on 
observation flights over the United States under the Open Skies 
Treaty during the previous year.
      The House amendment contained a similar provision (sec. 
1231) that would limit funds that may be used to approve or 
permit approval of a request by the Russian Federation to carry 
out observation flights with an aircraft that has installed an 
upgraded sensor with infrared or synthetic aperture radar 
capability over the United States or the territory covered in 
the Open Skies Treaty, unless the administration can certify 
certain conditions.
      The Senate recedes with an amendment that would limit 
funding that may be used to vote to approve or otherwise adopt 
any implementing decision of the Open Skies Consultative 
Commission to authorize approval of requests by state parties 
to the Treaty of infrared or synthetic aperture radars, 
pursuant to the Open Skies Treaty, unless and until the 
Secretary of Defense, jointly with the relevant U.S. government 
officials, submits to the appropriate congressional committees 
a certification that such implementing decision would not be 
detrimental or otherwise harmful to the national security of 
the United States, and submits a report.
      Further, not later than 90 days prior to when the U.S. 
votes to approve or otherwise adopt any implementing decision, 
the Secretary of State shall submit to Congress certain 
certifications. If the Secretary is unable to make these 
certifications, the Secretary must submit a report to Congress 
explaining why it is in the national interest of the U.S. to 
vote to approve or otherwise adopt such implementing decision.
      The amendment also requires a quarterly report by certain 
government officials evaluating Open Skies Treaty overflights 
of the United States by the Russian Federation.
      The amendment further states that not more than 65-
percent of the funds authorized for fiscal year 2017 may be 
used to carry out any activities to implement the Open Skies 
Treaty until the Director of National Intelligence and the 
Director of the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency submit 
an evaluation of whether it is possible, consistent with U.S. 
national security interests, to substitute commercial imagery 
or other phenomenologies for such data generated by Treaty 
overflights. The amendment further limits the funding until the 
Secretary of State submits a report on cost of implementing the 
Open Skies Treaty and on impact on participation and 
contributions by covered state parties and relationships among 
covered state parties.
Extension and enhancement of Ukraine Security Assistance Initiative 
        (sec. 1237)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 1231) that 
would extend through fiscal year 2019 the authority under 
section 1250 of the National Defense Authorization Act for 
Fiscal Year 2016 (Public Law 114-92) for the Secretary of 
Defense, in coordination with the Secretary of State, to 
provide security assistance and intelligence support to 
military and other security forces of the government of 
Ukraine. The provision would authorize the use of up to $500.0 
million in fiscal year 2017 to provide security assistance to 
Ukraine. The provision would prohibit the obligation or 
expenditure of half of the funds authorized to be appropriated 
in fiscal year 2017 under this authority until the Secretary of 
Defense, in coordination with the Secretary of State, certifies 
that Ukraine has taken substantial action to make defense 
institutional reforms and outlines areas where further work may 
remain.
      The House amendment contained a similar provision (sec. 
1235) that would make conforming changes of a non-substantive 
nature to section 1250 of the National Defense Authorization 
Act for Fiscal Year 2016 (Public Law 114-92).
      The House recedes with an amendment that would extend the 
authority through December 31, 2018, and authorize the use of 
up to $350 million in fiscal year 2017 to provide security 
assistance to Ukraine. The provision would limit the obligation 
or expenditure of funds to $175 million of the funds authorized 
to be appropriated in fiscal year 2017 until a certification is 
made that Ukraine has taken substantial action on defense 
institutional reforms.
      The conferees remain deeply concerned by the continuing 
aggression of Russia and Russian-backed separatists that 
violate ceasefire agreements and as such, continue to emphasize 
the fundamental importance of providing security assistance and 
intelligence support, including lethal military assistance, to 
the Government of Ukraine to build its capacity to defend its 
territory and sovereignty.
      The conferees are concerned that progress in the area of 
defense institutional reform has been slow and uneven and note 
that such reforms are critical to sustaining capabilities 
developed using security assistance. Such reforms are critical 
to the long-term stability and security of Ukraine. The 
conferees welcome the signing of the Partner Concept document 
between the United States and Ukraine as well as the 
appointment of a senior advisor to the Ukrainian government and 
encourage further progress on institutional reform efforts.

    Subtitle E--Reform of Department of Defense Security Cooperation

Enactment of new chapter for defense security cooperation (sec. 1241)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 1252) that 
would create a new chapter in title 10, United States Code, on 
security cooperation, and would transfer, modify, and codify 
security cooperation-related provisions from elsewhere in title 
10 and public law to this new chapter.
      The House amendment contained a similar provision (sec. 
1261).
      The House recedes with amendments that would make several 
modifications, including to: 1) narrow the scope of the 
authority for the Department to provide assistance to build the 
capacity of a friendly foreign nation to conduct specified 
military operations, modify the availability of funds for such 
purposes, and change notification requirements; 2) preserve the 
existing authority for the Department of Defense (DOD) to 
operate five Regional Centers for Security Studies; 3) require 
the Secretary of Defense to designate an individual and office 
at the Under Secretary of Defense-level or below with 
responsibility for oversight of strategic policy and guidance 
and responsibility for overall resource allocation for security 
cooperation programs and activities of the Department; and 4) 
authorize the Department to provide support to other 
departments and agencies of the United States Government for 
the purpose of implementing or supporting foreign assistance 
programs and activities that advance security cooperation 
objectives.
      The conferees note that over the last 15 years, the 
Department of Defense's engagement with national security 
forces of friendly foreign countries has expanded in response 
to changing strategic requirements. Correspondingly, the number 
and complexity of authorities and associated funding provided 
to the Department to conduct security cooperation programs has 
expanded, resulting in security cooperation authorities being 
dispersed throughout title 10 and public law. This architecture 
has led to a confusing and unwieldy security cooperation 
enterprise that undermines the ability of the Department--
particularly its senior civilian and military leaders--to 
prioritize, plan, synchronize, execute, allocate resources, and 
oversee activities. The current situation has also resulted in 
frequent changes for the security cooperation professionals 
attempting to implement security cooperation programs and 
activities. This has contributed to suboptimal outcomes and 
missed opportunities. Further, the conferees believe the 
complex patchwork of authorities and sources of funding hinders 
appropriate congressional and public transparency and 
complicates robust congressional oversight of a key mission for 
the Department.
      As such, the conferees believe that consolidating the 
various security cooperation authorities under a single 
security cooperation chapter in title 10 will provide greater 
clarity and consistency about the nature and scope of DOD's 
security cooperation programs and activities to those who plan, 
manage, implement, and conduct oversight of these programs. The 
conferees note that the functional areas in which the 
Department is authorized to provide assistance under this 
provision are consistent with existing focus areas of the 
Department's `train and equip' programs. The conferees also 
note that authority to provide assistance to build the capacity 
of friendly foreign countries to conduct military intelligence 
operations already exists, because the Department's existing 
authorities include support functions, and intelligence 
operations frequently act in that capacity. The inclusion of 
intelligence operations is intended solely to clarify that the 
Department may conduct such activities either as a supporting 
activity for other operations or as a stand-alone operation, 
and it is not meant to suggest that other activities that 
support or enable programs providing training and equipment to 
foreign forces (such as logistics or communications activities) 
are not permitted under existing authorities.
      Additionally, for the purposes of executing programs and 
activities in the new security cooperation chapter in title 10, 
funds available to DOD for security cooperation may be used 
prior to the submission of a consolidated security cooperation 
budget as required by section 1249 of this subtitle.
      Moreover, consolidation of a single `train and equip' 
authority will ensure that the Department has flexibility to 
meet its evolving strategic objectives, without being forced to 
bend its strategy to meet the contours of available tailored 
authorities. The conferees do not intend for the consolidation 
to create a DOD mission that competes with security assistance 
overseen by the Department of State. Rather, a consolidated 
`train and equip' authority should enable the Department to 
meet its own defense-specific objectives in support of broader 
defense strategy and plans, as well as to better integrate 
title 10 security cooperation activities into the broader 
United States Government approach to security sector 
assistance. To that end, the conferees note that the provision 
would increase coordination between the Department of Defense 
and the Department of State in the planning and implementation 
of security sector assistance programs by requiring the 
Secretary of Defense and the Secretary of State to jointly 
develop and plan `train and equip' programs as well as to 
coordinate the implementation of such programs and ensure 
robust end-use monitoring of provided assistance. The conferees 
believe that the Department of Defense and the Department of 
State should have greater visibility into the planning, 
programming, and execution of each organization's security 
sector assistance programs and activities and urge both 
Departments to enhance visibility and collaboration on such 
programs early in the planning process and through execution so 
as to avoid unnecessary duplication and enhance overall unity 
of effort.
      Additionally, the conferees are concerned that the 
existing process for coordination between the two Departments 
on security sector assistance programs is too ad-hoc in nature 
and often elevates responsibility for such coordination, 
particularly those activities requiring concurrence, to the 
senior-most echelons of the respective organizations--to 
include the Deputy Secretary or Secretary level--resulting in a 
cumbersome and time-intensive process. Therefore, the provision 
would require the Secretary of Defense and the Secretary of 
State to designate individuals at the lowest possible level in 
their respective organizations with responsibility for such 
coordination.
      The conferees note that the Department's security 
cooperation activities over the last 15 years have emphasized 
building the capacity of partner forces at the tactical and 
operational level. However, the conferees are concerned that 
insufficient attention and resources have been provided for 
building institutional capacity at higher echelons, 
particularly the generating force (e.g. those with `man, train, 
and equip' responsibilities) and at the strategic level (e.g. 
ministerial and general staff levels). The conferees expect the 
Department to increase its emphasis on strengthening the 
defense institutions of friendly foreign nations as it builds 
security cooperation programs and activities and expects 
proposals submitted to Congress to include a robust defense 
institution building component. Moreover, the conferees expect 
the Department to take advantage of the simplified framework of 
security cooperation authorities adopted in this section to 
develop security cooperation programs that integrate activities 
to simultaneously engage partners and build capacity at each of 
these levels--tactical, operational, and strategic.
      Additionally, the conferees note the importance of 
sustaining capabilities provided to friendly foreign nations, 
particularly equipment, to the long-term success of DOD's 
security cooperation programs and activities. As such, the 
conferees expect that there is a plan to transition sustainment 
support from DOD to other sources of funding, such as foreign 
countries' national funds, will be part of each security 
cooperation program.
      In addition to the cumbersome, confusing, and complex 
patchwork of authorities and funding sources, the Department's 
organizational structure for the security cooperation 
enterprise has undermined the ability of senior Department 
officials to adequately oversee, prioritize, and synchronize 
security cooperation programs and activities to support 
strategic priorities. Currently, there is no individual or 
office below the Deputy Secretary of Defense with 
responsibility to oversee strategic policy and resource 
allocation for the security cooperation enterprise. Instead, 
such responsibility spans multiple components and offices at 
the level of Under Secretary. Therefore, the provision would 
require the Secretary to assign responsibility for the 
oversight of strategic policy and guidance and responsibility 
for overall resource allocation for security cooperation 
programs and activities of the Department of Defense to a 
single official and office in the Office of the Secretary of 
Defense at the level of Under Secretary or below. The conferees 
intend for this individual and office to better synchronize 
planning and programs across the regional and functional 
components of the Department and ensure that such activities 
and resources are appropriately aligned with strategic 
priorities. Further, the conferees expect that this arrangement 
will empower the Department to prioritize resources and 
consider trade-offs across the full range of security 
cooperation programs and funding sources. Additionally, the 
provision would assign responsibility for the execution and 
administration of all security cooperation programs and 
activities of the Department of Defense involving the provision 
of defense articles, military training, and other defense-
related services by grant, loan, cash sale, or lease to the 
Director of the Defense Security Cooperation Agency. This 
assignment of responsibility is meant to help the Department 
overcome the distortions, lack of coordination, and duplication 
that occurs across the Department's security cooperation 
enterprise, arising from narrowly-focused program offices found 
throughout the Office of the Secretary of Defense, the Joint 
Staff, Military Departments, Combatant Commands, and the 
defense agencies.
      The provision would preserve the five Department of 
Defense Regional Centers for Security Studies. The provision 
would also require the Secretary to review, on an annual basis, 
the program and structure of each Regional Center in order to 
ensure that they are appropriately aligned with the strategic 
priorities of the Department. The conferees intend for the 
Regional Centers to more closely align activities with the 
requirements of DOD, and to serve as an effective tool to 
advance clearly defined security cooperation objectives in 
direct support of defense strategy.
      The conferees note that, despite the marked increase in 
DOD security cooperation programs and activities over the last 
15 years, the Department has not applied sufficient emphasis 
and resources to develop a comprehensive framework to assess, 
monitor, and evaluate its security cooperation programs and 
activities from inception to completion. Instead, the conferees 
believe that the Department has focused on assessments of 
partner nation capability gaps at the beginning of assistance 
programs rather than over the life cycle of the program, which 
has undermined the Department's ability to measure outcomes 
against objectives. Sufficient attention must be given to the 
implementation of programs with continuous robust evaluation to 
gauge whether programs and activities are meeting or have met 
defined objectives. The conferees expect the Department to 
allocate sufficient resources to its assessment, monitoring, 
and evaluation program, and to apply lessons learned from the 
program to improve and reshape security cooperation programs 
and activities to maximize effectiveness and efficiency.
      Further, in this context, the conferees believe the 
Department's security cooperation data systems should provide 
an enterprise-wide view of security cooperation activities to 
facilitate best practices and enable strategic decision-making. 
In addition to basic data about security cooperation programs, 
the system should support the distribution of lessons-learned, 
including the activities' goals and history of development, and 
inform future activities and resource allocation. The conferees 
note the current limitations of the Global Theater Security 
Cooperation Management information Systems (G-TSCMIS) program 
and encourage the Department to review the use and 
functionality of G-TSCMIS at all user levels. The Department 
should further consider measures to promote more wide-spread 
and regular use of G-TSCMIS and ensure that processes and 
system functionality appropriately collects, stores, 
integrates, and distributes information Department-wide.
Military-to-military exchanges (sec. 1242)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 1253) that 
would combine existing security cooperation authorities 
permitting the exchange of military and defense personnel with 
allies of the United States and other friendly foreign 
countries.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes with a clarifying amendment.
      The conferees encourage the Department to make more 
effective use of exchanges of military and defense personnel as 
important elements of broader security cooperation efforts, 
particularly with regard to building partner operational 
capacity or strengthening the management functions of partner 
defense institutions. Such exchanges offer opportunities for 
U.S. military and civilian personnel to mentor foreign 
counterparts, share relevant operational concepts, and assess 
how well previous assistance has been employed and sustained. 
Meanwhile, foreign exchange officers can obtain valuable on-
the-job training working among their U.S. counterparts and 
improve their understanding of U.S. military organizations and 
operations, contributing to deeper interoperability. Such 
exchanges should be planned with these advantages in mind, in 
integration with other security cooperation activities and 
authorities.
Consolidation and revision of authorities for payment of personnel 
        expenses necessary for theater security cooperation (sec. 1243)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 1254) that 
would consolidate and modify similar authorities permitting the 
payment of personnel expenses of allied or partner countries 
during theater security cooperation activities.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes with a technical amendment.
Transfer and revision of certain authorities on payment of expenses of 
        training and exercises with friendly foreign forces (sec. 1244)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 1255) that 
would combine and modify similar authorities for paying for the 
expenses of partner nations when conducting training with U.S. 
Armed Forces and for the expenses of developing countries when 
participating in exercises.
      The House amendment contained a similar provision (sec. 
1202) that would extend the authority in section 1203 of the 
National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2014 (Public 
Law 113-66) for training of general purpose forces of the 
United States Armed Forces with military and other security 
forces of friendly foreign countries to December 31, 2019.
      The House recedes with an amendment that would combine 
and modify similar authorities for paying for the expenses of 
partner nations when conducting training with U.S. Armed Forces 
and for the expenses of developing countries when participating 
in exercises. The provision would also transfer section 2011 of 
title 10, United States Code to the new chapter 16 on security 
cooperation created elsewhere in this Act.
      The conferees note that the transfer of section 2011 of 
title 10, United States Code to the new chapter 16 is part of a 
broader effort to consolidate and simplify authorities related 
to security cooperation. The conferees do not intend for this 
transfer to negatively impact administration of Special 
Operations Forces Joint Combined Exchange and Training Program 
by the Commander, United States Special Operations Command, 
which remains a standalone authority within the new chapter.
Transfer and revision of authority to provide operational support to 
        forces of friendly foreign countries (sec. 1245)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 1256) that 
would consolidate and modify section 127d of title 10, United 
States Code, section 1207 of the National Defense Authorization 
Act for Fiscal Year 2016 (Public Law 114-92), and section 1234 
of the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2008 
(Public Law 110-181), as amended, relating to the provision of 
operational support to partners and allies in combined 
operations with U.S. Armed Forces, in military operations that 
support U.S. national security interests, or in support of U.S. 
operations in Iraq and Afghanistan.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes with technical amendment.
Department of Defense State Partnership Program (sec. 1246)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 1257) that 
would codify the Department of Defense State Partnership 
Program (section 1205 of the National Defense Authorization Act 
for Fiscal Year 2014 (Public Law 113-66), as amended by section 
1203 of the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 
2016 (Public Law 114-92)).
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes with a clarifying amendment.
Transfer of authority on regional defense combating terrorism 
        fellowship program (sec. 1247)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 1258) that 
would transfer to the new chapter 16 on security cooperation in 
title 10, United States Code, the regional combating terrorism 
fellowship program (section 2249c of title 10, United States 
Code) and modify the program to authorize the Secretary of 
Defense to carry out a program under which the Secretary may 
pay costs associated with the education and training of 
national-level security officials of friendly foreign nations.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes with an amendment that would transfer 
the underlying authority for the regional combating terrorism 
fellowship program to the new chapter 16 on security 
cooperation and would make a technical modification to the 
reporting requirement.
Consolidation of authorities for service academy international 
        engagement (sec. 1248)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 1259) that 
would amend Chapter 16 of title 10, United States Code, to 
consolidate international engagement authorities for the 
service academies of the Army, Navy, and Air Force.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes.
      The conferees note that under current law, there are nine 
separate authorities that determine the selection of, funding 
for, and conditions for international students attending the 
service academies of the Army, Navy, or Air Force. The 
conferees believe consolidating these authorities would provide 
consistency by creating a single, common authority for use by 
the service academies to select international students and 
conduct exchange programs with foreign military academies.
Consolidated annual budget for security cooperation programs and 
        activities of the Department of Defense (sec. 1249)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 1262) that 
would require the budget of the President for each fiscal year 
after fiscal year 2018, as submitted to Congress by the 
President pursuant to section 1105 of title 31, United States 
Code, to include as a separate item the amounts requested for 
the Department of Defense (including those funds in the budgets 
of the military departments) for such fiscal year for all 
security cooperation programs and activities of the Department, 
including the specific amounts, if any, and the specific 
country or region, to the maximum extent practicable, for such 
programs and activities.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes with a technical amendment.
      Consistent with the creation of the new chapter 16 on 
security cooperation and the consolidation of the Department of 
Defense's security cooperation funding and related authorities, 
this provision is intended to enhance the ability of the 
congressional defense committees to conduct oversight of the 
Department's security cooperation programs and activities, 
including those undertaken by the military services; to 
understand better how the Department plans, programs, and 
prioritizes its security cooperation programs and activities to 
fill gaps in its contingency plans; to enable foreign partners 
against a common threat or enemy; and to align resources with 
the Department's strategic objectives. This approach is also 
intended to better enable public transparency.
Department of Defense security cooperation workforce development (sec. 
        1250)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 1263) that 
would direct the Secretary of Defense to create a Department of 
Defense security cooperation workforce development program to 
oversee the development and management of a professional 
workforce supporting security cooperation programs of the 
Department of Defense as well as the execution of security 
assistance programs and activities under the Foreign Assistance 
Act and the Arms Control Act by the Department of Defense.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes with a clarifying amendment.
      Despite the increasing emphasis on security cooperation 
to further its strategic objectives, the conferees are 
concerned that the Department of Defense--whether in 
implementing State Department programs or its own programs--has 
not devoted sufficient attention and resources to the 
development, management, and sustainment of the Department's 
security cooperation workforce to ensure effective assessment, 
planning, monitoring, execution, evaluation, and administration 
of security cooperation programs and initiatives. As a result 
of this inattention, security cooperation initiatives are not 
always planned and implemented in such a way as to most 
effectively advance national security objectives, and the 
Military Departments are left to pursue their unique service 
objectives, which may not always align with broader foreign 
policy objectives or integrate with Department of Defense 
efforts. The conferees are also concerned about the lack of 
standardization in the organization of the security cooperation 
workforce within the Military Departments.
      Finally, the conferees believe that security cooperation 
outcomes would improve if the security cooperation planning 
workforce, including within Embassy country teams and at 
Geographic Combatant Commands, was able to draw upon not just 
the foreign area officer specialty, but also upon other 
relevant specialties such as force planning, logistics, and 
acquisition.
      The conferees believe that building security capabilities 
of a partner nation and deepening interoperability through 
security cooperation requires a specialized set of skills, and 
the current system neither develops those skills among its 
workforce nor rationally assigns its workforce to match 
appropriate skills with requirements. The conferees believe 
increased attention and resourcing must be focused on the 
recruitment, training, certification, assignment, and career 
development of the security cooperation workforce. The 
conferees expect the Department to implement this authority 
expansively in order to address shortfalls in the security 
cooperation workforce throughout the enterprise.
      Specifically, implementation of this authority should (1) 
ensure the development and rational allocation of qualified and 
experienced personnel in order to support high-priority 
security cooperation initiatives and partners; (2) ensure the 
appropriate sizing, organization, and chain-of-command for the 
security cooperation workforce within the Military Departments; 
(3) ensure the appropriate skills and capabilities are 
developed within the workforce and that there are standard and 
viable career paths; and (4) ensure sufficient size of the 
Title 10 workforce to enhance program management and 
administration, as well as to strike a more appropriate balance 
with the Title 22 workforce. The conferees expect that the 
Department will allocate necessary resources, from available 
Title 10 security cooperation program resources and other 
appropriate sources, sufficient to achieve these objectives, 
and reflect these costs in its annual security cooperation 
budget submission.
      The conferees note that effectiveness and efficiency of 
security cooperation implementation will depend on a workforce 
that is integrated across the enterprise and responsive to 
clear strategic direction in support of Department priorities.
Reporting requirements (sec. 1251)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 1261) to 
consolidate and standardize the Department's reporting on 
security cooperation authorities and programs in an annual 
report.
      The House amendment contained a similar provision (sec. 
1205).
      The Senate recedes with a technical amendment.
      The conferees note that this Act retains nearly all of 
the notification requirements with respect to the Department's 
security cooperation activities. Coupled with the requirement 
for an annual budget submission that appears elsewhere in this 
Act, this approach relieves the Department of an overly 
burdensome reporting regime while maintaining the transparency 
and accountability required for appropriate oversight and real-
time monitoring of the Department's new programs. The conferees 
expect that the level of detail contained in the annual report 
should be equal to or greater than the existing individual 
reports. Any degradation in the quality of the reporting on the 
Department's security cooperation program and activities would 
be inconsistent with the intent of the conferees in undertaking 
this broader reform initiative.
Quadrennial Review of Security Sector Assistance Program and 
        Authorities of the United States Government (sec. 1252)
      The conference agreement includes a provision that would 
require the President to conduct a quadrennial review of all 
U.S. Government security sector assistance programs, policies, 
authorities, and resources.
Other conforming amendments and authority for administration (sec. 
        1253)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 1265) that 
would repeal superseded, obsolete, or duplicate statutes 
relating to security cooperation as part of its efforts to 
streamline and rationalize the authorities of the Department to 
conduct security cooperation.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes with a technical amendment.

                   Subtitle F--Human Rights Sanctions

Global Magnitsky Human Rights Accountability Act (secs. 1261-1265)
      The Senate bill contained provisions (secs. 1281-1284) 
that would authorize the President to impose sanctions with 
respect to any foreign person that the President determines is 
responsible for gross human rights violations or acts of 
significant corruption.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes with amendments which would sunset the 
provision six years after enactment, modify the congressional 
referral mechanism, and revise the waiver threshold for the 
termination of sanctions, as well as several technical 
amendments.

                   Subtitle G--Miscellaneous Reports

Modification of annual report on military and security developments 
        involving the People's Republic of China (sec. 1271)
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 1242) 
that would require a summary of the order of battle of the 
People's Liberation Army, including anti-ship ballistic 
missiles, theater ballistic missiles, and land attack cruise 
missile inventory and a description of the People's Republic of 
China's military and nonmilitary activities in the South China 
Sea to be added to the Annual Report on Military and Security 
Developments Involving the People's Republic of China.
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes.
Monitoring and evaluation of overseas humanitarian, disaster, and civic 
        aid programs of the Department of Defense (sec. 1272)
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 1245) 
that would authorize the Secretary of Defense to use up to 5 
percent of the amounts authorized to be appropriated by this 
Act for Overseas Humanitarian, Disaster, and Civic Aid (OHDACA) 
for fiscal year 2017, to conduct monitoring and evaluation of 
the OHDACA programs of the Department of Defense. This section 
would also require the Secretary of Defense to provide a 
briefing to the specified committees not later than 90 days 
after the date of the enactment of this Act on mechanisms to 
evaluate OHDACA programs.
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes with an amendment that would extend 
the authorization to fiscal year 2018.
Strategy for United States defense interests in Africa (sec. 1273)
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 1249) 
that would require the Secretary of Defense to submit a report 
not later than 1 year after the date of the enactment of this 
Act to the congressional defense committees that contains a 
strategy for United States defense interests in Africa.
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes with a technical amendment.
Report on the potential for cooperation between the United States and 
        Israel on directed energy capabilities (sec. 1274)
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 1250) 
that would allow the Secretary of Defense to carry out 
research, development, test and evaluation activities, on a 
joint basis with Israel to establish directed energy 
capabilities to detect and defeat ballistic missiles, cruise 
missiles, unmanned aerial vehicles, mortars, and improvised 
explosive devices that threaten the United States, deployed 
forced of the United States, or Israel.
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes with an amendment that would replace 
the House provision with the requirement for a report on the 
potential for United States and Israeli directed energy 
cooperation to defeat ballistic missiles, cruise missiles, 
unmanned aerial vehicles, mortars, and improvised explosive 
devices. The report is due to the congressional defense and 
foreign relations committees not later than 180 days after 
enactment of this act.
Annual update of Department of Defense Freedom of Navigation Report 
        (sec. 1275)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 1241) that 
directs the Secretary of Defense to submit an annual report to 
the Committees on Armed Services of the Senate and the House of 
Representatives setting forth an update on the most current 
Freedom of Navigation Report under the Freedom of Navigation 
Operations (FONOPS) program.
      The House amendment contained a similar provision (sec. 
1255) that directs the Secretary of Defense to submit a 
quarterly report to the congressional defense committees on any 
excessive territorial claims of foreign countries that were 
challenged by freedom of navigation operations and flights 
carried out by the armed forces during such fiscal quarter.
      The House recedes with an amendment that would terminate 
the report on September 30, 2021.
Reports on INF Treaty and Open Skies Treaty (sec. 1276)
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 1259H) 
that would require the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff to 
submit to the appropriate congressional committees a report on 
the Open Skies Treaty that assesses possible non-compliance of 
the treaty by the Russian Federation, and whether the treaty 
remains in the national security interest of the United States. 
It would also require a report on the INF Treaty of whether and 
why the Treaty remains in the national security interests of 
the United States and a specific plan to remedy the Russian 
violation of the INF Treaty.
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes with an amendment that would add the 
House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence and the Senate 
Select Committee on Intelligence to the list of congressional 
committees to receive the reports.
Assessment of proliferation of certain remotely piloted aircraft 
        systems (sec. 1277)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 1275) that 
would require an independent assessment directed by the 
Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff to report on the impact 
to United States national security interests of the 
proliferation of certain remotely piloted aircraft. The 
assessment would include an analysis of the threat posed to the 
United States as a result of the proliferation of such aircraft 
to adversaries, the impact of such proliferation on the combat 
capabilities of and interoperability with partners and allies 
of the United States, and the potential benefits and risks of 
continuing to limit exports of such aircraft.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes.
      The conferees note that the proliferation of remotely 
piloted aircraft has significantly altered the context of the 
international security environment since the origination of the 
Missile Technology Control Regime that proscribes a ``strong 
presumption of denial'' for the export of such aircraft.

                       Subtitle H--Other Matters

Enhancement of interagency support during contingency operations and 
        transition periods (sec. 1281)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 1050) that 
would authorize the Secretary of Defense and the Secretary of 
State to enter into an agreement allowing each Secretary to 
provide support, supplies, and services on a reimbursement 
basis, or by exchange of support, supplies, and services, to 
the other Secretary during a contingency operation and related 
transition period.
      The House amendment contained a similar provision (sec. 
1246).
      The Senate recedes with a technical amendment.
Two-year extension and modification of authorization of non-
        conventional assisted recovery capabilities (sec. 1282)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 1274) that 
would extend the authority of the Department of Defense to 
establish, develop, and maintain non-conventional assisted 
recovery (NAR) capabilities for three additional years and 
modify the eligibility of personnel for whom such support may 
be provided.
      The House amendment contained a similar provision that 
would modify section 943 of the Duncan Hunter National Defense 
Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2009 (Public Law 110-417), as 
most recently amended by section 1271 of the National Defense 
Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2016 (Public Law 114-92), to 
permit the recovery of individuals identified by the Secretary 
of Defense when a non-conventional assisted recovery capability 
is already in place and would extend the authority through 
2020.
      The Senate recedes with a technical amendment.
      The conferees direct the Department to ensure that the 
planning, initiation, sustainment, and utilization of NAR 
capabilities are fully coordinated and de-conflicted with other 
U.S. departments and agencies who may also play a role in the 
recovery of designated individuals overseas. (The conferees 
also note that non-conventional assisted recovery is a 
traditional military activity and the authority modified and 
extended by this provision does not authorize the conduct of 
intelligence activities.)
Authority to destroy certain specified World War II-era United States-
        origin chemical munitions located on San Jose Island, Republic 
        of Panama (sec. 1283)
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 1248)

``old chemical weapons'' and not ``abandoned chemical weapons'' 
and that per the prior lease agreement, the United States is 
under no legal obligation to destroy any additional chemical 
munitions, munitions constituents, and associated debris that 
may be located on San Jose Island as a result of research, 
development, and testing activities conducted on San Jose 
Island during the period of 1943 through 1947. This provision

countries other than Panama.
      The Senate bill contained a similar provision (sec.

directed the Secretary of Defense to carry out a program of 
exchanges of senior military officers and senior officials 
between the United States and Taiwan, both in the United States 
and Taiwan, designed to improve military to military relations 
between the United States and Taiwan.
      The House amendment contained a similar provision (sec. 
1254) that expressed a sense of the congress that that the 
Secretary of Defense should conduct a program of senior 
military exchanges between the United States and Taiwan, both 
in the United States and Taiwan, that have the objective of 
improving military-to-military relations and defense 
cooperation between the United States and Taiwan.
      The House recedes with an amendment that the Secretary of

Trade Treaty unless the Treaty has received the advice and 
consent of the Senate and has been the subject of implementing 
legislation. The National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal 
Year 2016 (Public Law 114-92; 10 U.S.C. 801 note) contained a 
similar provision.
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes with a technical amendment.

        participation of Cuba in certain joint or multilateral 
        exercises (sec. 1286)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 1204) that 
would prohibit the Secretary of Defense from using any funds to 
invite, assist, or otherwise assure the participation of the 
Government of Cuba in any joint or multilateral exercise or 
related security conference between the United States and Cuba 
until the Secretary, in coordination with the Director of 
National Intelligence, submits to Congress certain assurances. 
The provision would provide an exception to the prohibition for 
any joint or multilateral exercise or operation related to 
humanitarian assistance or disaster response.
      The House amendment contained a similar provision (sec. 
1259B) that would prohibit the use of funds authorized to be 
appropriated or otherwise made available to the Department of 
Defense for any bilateral military-to-military contact or 
cooperation between the Governments of the United States and 
Cuba until the Secretary of Defense and the Secretary of State, 
in consultation with the Director of National Intelligence, 
certify to the appropriate congressional committees that the 
Government of Cuba has taken specified actions.
      The Senate recedes with an amendment that would prohibit 
the Secretary of Defense from using any funds authorized to be 
appropriated or otherwise made available for fiscal year 2017 
for the Department of Defense unless the Secretary of Defense 
and the Secretary of State, in consultation with the Director 
of National Intelligence, certify to the appropriate 
congressional committees that the Government of Cuba has taken 
specified actions, with certain exceptions.
      It is the intent of the conferees that the exception 
contained in subsection (b)(1) of this section includes 
periodic contact between appropriate officials of the 
Governments of the United States and Cuba concerning the 
security and management of personnel and facilities at Naval 
Station Guantanamo Bay, commonly referred to as ``fence-line 
talks,'' which have been a routine and ongoing activity for 
many years and have proven important to ensuring the safety of 
U.S. personnel serving at Naval Station Guantanamo Bay.
Global Engagement Center (sec. 1287)
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 1259C) 
that would direct the Secretary of State in coordination with 
the Secretary of Defense (and relevant federal departments and 
agencies and partner nations) to establish a Global Engagement 
Center (GEC) within 6 months of enactment. The GEC's general 
purpose would be to discover, expose and counter foreign 
government information warfare efforts (to include foreign 
propaganda and disinformation efforts) and proactively advance 
fact-based narratives that support US allies and interests. The 
GEC would terminate 5 years after enactment.
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes with an amendment that included 
changes to the purpose and functions of the GEC, further 
specified the appointment, delegation and scope and 
responsibility and authority of the head of the GEC, modified 
the authority to transfer funds for the GEC, added a reporting 
requirement to the appropriate congressional committees, and

Modification of United States International Broadcasting Act of 1994 
        (sec. 1288)
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 1259D) 
that would amend Section 304 of P.L. 103-236 (22 USC 6203) to 
permanently establish the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) 
position as head of the Broadcasting Board of Governors (BBG), 
the federal agency that oversees all U.S.-funded non-military 
international broadcasting, while removing the nine-member 
bipartisan Board that currently heads the agency. It would also 
provide certain new flexibilities in the BBG CEO's authorities, 
including expanded authority to allow the BBG CEO to direct 
appropriated funds and to hire certain personnel. The House 
amendment also contained a provision (sec. 1259E) that would 
authorize the BBG CEO to consolidate the current U.S. 
international broadcasters that receive federal grants as 
independent non-profit corporations (Radio Free Europe/Radio 
Liberty, Radio Free Asia, and the Middle East Broadcasting 
Networks) into one grantee broadcaster, with certain related 
expanded supervisory roles and authorities vested in the BBG 
CEO. This provision would also authorize the BBG CEO to 
establish a similar non-federal broadcasting corporation, 
receiving a federal operating grant, to assume the broadcasting 
responsibilities of the Voice of America (VOA, the federal 
government broadcaster operating within the BBG), and abolish 
VOA as a federal entity.
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes with an amendment that would eliminate 
the timing requirement for nomination of the BBG CEO, add a 
notification requirement for redirection of funds, establish 
the international broadcasting advisory board, add a mission 
definition for the consolidated broadcast entities, and deleted 
specific discussion of Voice of America.
Redesignation of South China Sea Initiative (sec. 1289)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 1246) that 
would redesignate the South China Sea Initiative (Public Law

Maritime Security Initiative.
      The House amendment contained a similar provision (sec. 
1259F).
      The Senate recedes.

continue supporting the efforts of countries participating in 
the Southeast Asia Maritime Security Initiative to strengthen 
their maritime security capacity, domain awareness, and 
integration of their capabilities.
Measures against persons involved in activities that violate arms 
        control treaties or agreements with the United States (sec. 
        1290)
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 1259L) 
that would require the President to impose certain measures on 
a person the President determines has engaged in any activity 
that contributed to the President's or Secretary of State's 
determination that such a country is not in full compliance 
with its obligations undertaken in all arms control, on 
proliferation, and disarmament agreements to which the United 
States is participating state. Certain measures, exceptions, 
remedies, and waivers are included in the provision, including 
an exception for sanctions that would impact contracts related 
to major routes of supply; a waiver on a case-by-case if the 
person or entity engaging in, or supporting, an activity that 
contributed to a country not being in full compliance did not 
knowingly engage in such activity, and such waiver is in the 
interest of the national security of the United States; and 
termination of sanctions when the country concerned is no 
longer in violation.
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes with an amendment that would direct 
the Secretary of the Treasury to produce a list of persons 
(including an entity or entities) involved in sanctionable 
activity under this section not later than 30 days after the 
annual report on Adherence to and Compliance with Arms Control, 
Nonproliferation, and Disarmament Agreements and Commitments 
(required by 22 U.S.C. 2593a) has been submitted. Such 
person(s) would be subject to immediate sanction.
      Additionally, the Senate amendment narrows the scope of 
the new sanction only to those countries who are not determined 
to be closely cooperating with the United States by the 
Director of National Intelligence.
      The Senate amendment also required the waiver tied to a 
knowing violation include a requirement that such conduct has 
been terminated or that verifiable assurances that the person 
will terminate such activity have been provided.
      The Senate amendment further provides waiver authority if 
the President determines on a case-by-case basis that the 
imposition of a sanction under this section would jeopardize an 
intelligence source or method. The conferees expect this waiver 
to be used only when there is a clear and specific risk that 
sources and methods would be compromised or exposed. Detailed 
information on such risk will be reported to the specified 
congressional committees.
      The Senate amendment also provides measures to delay the 
immediate imposition of sanctions if the President determines 
the government of the country concerned has taken specific and 
effective actions, including penalties as appropriate, to 
terminate the involvement of a domiciled person in the activity 
that triggered sanctions. This delay includes up to 120 days if 
the President initiates consultations with the government of 
the country concerned and an additional 120 days if such 
government is in the process of taking specific and effective 
actions to terminate the involvement of a domiciled entity in 
the activity that triggered sanctions.
      The Senate amendment contains additional measures for 
termination if the person has ceased the activity contributing 
to a country's violation.

notification not later than 15 days before providing such 
support.
Modification and clarification of United States-Israel anti-tunnel 
        cooperation authority (sec. 1295)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 1273) that 
would increase the annual limitation of the authority under 
section 1279 of the National Defense Authorization Act for 
Fiscal Year 2016 (P.L. 114-92) for the Secretary of Defense, in

      The conferees note that elsewhere in this Act is a 
provision that would consolidate multiple authorities to build 
the capacity of friendly foreign nations to conduct specified 
operations, to include counter-weapons of mass destruction

date under section 1204 of the National Defense Authorization 
Act for Fiscal Year 2014 (Public Law 113-66) to be conducted

      The House recedes.
      The conferees note that the United States continues to 
have vital national security interests in ensuring that 
Afghanistan is a stable, sovereign country and that stability 
and security in Afghanistan reinforces stability and security 
in the region. The conferees urge the President to ensure that 
the commander in Afghanistan has the required resources, 
authorities, and capabilities to protect U.S. and Coalition 
troops and to enable their counterterrorism and train, advise 
and assist missions. Further, the conferees believe that the 
United States should continue to provide the required support 
to the Afghan National Defense and Security Forces to secure 
Afghanistan.
Sense of Congress relating to Dr. Shakil Afridi
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 1218)

        in Syria
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 1226) 
that would express the sense of Congress that the United States 
Government should condemn and call for an immediate end to 
attacks on medical facilities and medical providers in Syria 
and encourage the United States Government to support efforts 
to meet urgent humanitarian needs where appropriate.
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes.
      The conferees note with deep concern continued attacks on 
civilians, medical personnel, and medical facilities in Syria. 
These attacks constitute violations of international 
humanitarian law. The conferees urge the Department of Defense 
to ensure these violations are documented and further encourage 
the Department of Defense to support, where appropriate,

        and Syria
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 1228)

        Government of the Russian Federation
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 1234) 
that would express a statement that it is the policy of the 
United States to reassure U.S. partners and allies in Europe 
and to deter aggression by the Government of the Russian

stability.
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes.
      The conferees remain concerned about the evolving 
security situation throughout the European continent. A 
revanchist Russian Federation, rising incidents of terrorism, 
and unprecedented refugee and migrant flows are among the 
issues that continue to present significant security challenges 
to the region. The conferees recognize the North Atlantic 
Treaty Organization (NATO) as the cornerstone of transatlantic 
security cooperation and the guarantor of peace and stability 
in Europe. The conferees believe that NATO members must 
continue to review defense spending to ensure sufficient 
funding is obligated to meet security needs, as well as 
providing adequate NATO contributions. The fulfillment of NATO 
members' commitments to allocate a minimum of two percent of 
Gross Domestic Product (GDP) for defense expenditures and 20 
percent of defense expenditures on major equipment, is of vital 
importance to the health of the NATO alliance. The conferees 
remain committed to supporting and upholding the policies 
enumerated in the NATO 2012 Wales Summit and the NATO 2016 
Warsaw Summit including full realization of the Readiness 
Action Plan, fulfillment of defense spending commitments, and 
timely implementation of an enhanced forward military presence.
      The conferees support U.S. efforts to increase presence 
in the European theater and commend the work of the Department 
of Defense thus far to reassure U.S. allies and partners in the 
region, increase NATO interoperability, provide critical 
training and assistance to European allies and partners, and 
deter Russian aggression. The conferees view the fiscal year 
2017 President's Budget Request of $3.42 billion for the 
European Deterrence Initiative (EDI) as an important step to 
support the stability and security of the region and deter 
further Russian antagonism and aggression. EDI will continue to 
serve as an important tool to bolster U.S. force presence in 
the region, train and equip the security forces of European 
partners and allies, enhance indications and warning 
mechanisms, and improve U.S. agility and flexibility through 
strategic infrastructure investments. The conferees believe 
additional emphasis is necessary on developing capabilities for 
countering unconventional methods of warfare such as cyber 
warfare, economic coercion, information operations, and 
intelligence operations. The conferees encourage the Department 
of Defense to include EDI resources and programs in the base 
budget in order to ensure persistent funding support as well as 
the ability to plan for long-term investments towards the 
security and stability of the European continent.

Organization (NATO) allies and European partners are 
indispensable to addressing global security challenges and that

capabilities in Europe should meet or exceed U.S. efforts in 
this regard and would require an accounting by the Secretary of 
Defense of current and planned security investments by NATO 
allies and European partners.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes.

Committee an accounting of European investment in security

summits, as well as a detailed accounting of initiatives by 
other NATO members and European partners to: a.) deter security 
challenges posed by Russia, b.) increase capabilities to 
respond to unconventional or hybrid warfare tactics, c.) 
enhance security in Europe in ways that match or compliment 
United States contributions to conventional deterrence in the 
region, d.) contribute to the campaign to counter the Islamic 
State of Iraq and the Levant and the NATO-led mission in

      The conferees recognize the continued importance of

et seq.) no later than February 15, 2017.
      The legislative provisions were not adopted.
      The conferees direct the Secretary of Defense and the

defensive character in accordance with the Taiwan Relations Act 
(Public Law 96-8; 22 U.S.C. 3301 et seq.) no later than

undersea warfare capabilities optimized for the defense of the

States Government should review its policy on the transfer of 
lethal weapons to Vietnam and that it should evaluate certain 
human rights benchmarks when providing military assistance to 
Vietnam.
      The legislative provisions were not adopted.
      The conferees support the decision to fully lift the ban

activities at the levels identified in section 4501 of division 
D of this Act.
      The House amendment contained an identical provision 
(sec. 1406).

                 Subtitle B--National Defense Stockpile

Authority to dispose of certain materials from and to acquire 
        additional materials for the National Defense Stockpile (sec. 
        1411)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 1412) that 
would require the National Defense Stockpile (NDS) Manager to 
dispose of specific rare earth elements (REE) while also 
allowing funds available in the National Defense Stockpile 
Transaction Fund to be used for the acquisition of other 
materials.
      The House amendment contained a similar provision (sec. 
1411) that would grant permissive authority to the NDS Manager 
to dispose of specific REE while also allowing funds available 
in the NDS Transaction Fund to be used for the acquisition of 
other materials.
      The Senate recedes.
      The conferees note that REE acquisitions would alleviate 
some defense supply chain vulnerability as well as mitigate 
some risk of foreign reliance for REE and critical materials.
National Defense Stockpile matters (sec. 1412)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 1411) that 
would amend section 4 of the Strategic and Critical Materials 
Stock Piling Act, title 50 United States Code, to provide the 
authority to recover, acquire, recycle, and manage the disposal 
of excess and recyclable strategic and critical materials 
containing rare earth elements (REE) from other federal 
agencies, including the Department of Defense. The provision 
would also enable the National Defense Stockpile (NDS) Manager 
to fund the qualification of domestically-produced strategic 
materials and REE, which could provide significant cost savings 
to DOD compared to foreign REE.
      The House amendment contained a similar provision (sec. 
1412).
      The House recedes.
      The conferees strongly believe that enabling the NDS to 
qualify domestic materials and create substitutions could 
provide a significant risk mitigation for DOD's supply chain 
and reduce the reliance upon foreign-sourced REE, along with 
cost-effective domestic and strategic alternatives.
      Additionally, the conferees strongly encourage DOD to use 
its authority to recycle previously discarded items such as 
unclassified electronic waste, fluorescent lamps, batteries, 
magnets, and thermal barrier coatings in order to extract, 
reclaim, and reuse critical materials and REE to address DOD 
requirements.

would require that amounts authorized for the Afghanistan 
Security Forces Fund (ASFF) for fiscal year 2017 continue to be 
subject to the conditions specified in subsections (b) through 
(g) of section 1513 of the Carl Levin and Howard P. ``Buck'' 
McKeon National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2008 
Public Law 110-181), as amended. The provision would extend the 
authority under subsection 1532(b) of the National Defense 
Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2015 (Public Law 113-291) to 
accept certain equipment procured using ASFF funds and to treat 
such equipment as Department of Defense stocks as well as the 
goal of using $25.0 million to support to the extent 
practicable the efforts of the Government of Afghanistan to 
promote the security of Afghan women and girls and report on a 
plan to promote the security of Afghan women as required by 
section 1531 of the National Defense Authorization Act of 2016.
      The House amendment contained a similar provision (sec. 
1531).
      The House recedes with a technical amendment.
Joint Improvised Explosive Device Defeat Fund (sec. 1522)
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 1532) 
that would modify subsection 1532(a) of the National Defense 
Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2016 (Public Law 114-92) to 
extend the use and transfer authority for the Joint Improvised 
Explosive Device Defeat Fund (JIEDDF) through fiscal year 2017. 
It would also modify section 1532(c) of the National Defense 
Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2013 (Public Law 112-239) to 
expand the foreign governments to whom assistance may be 
provided in order to counter the flow of improvised explosive 
device (IED) precursor chemicals.
      The Senate bill contained a similar provision (sec. 1531) 
that would extend the use and transfer authority for the JIEDDF 
for one year.
      The Senate recedes with an amendment to modify and expand 
the reporting requirements under section 1532(c).
      The conferees expect the expanded IED precursor chemical 
authority to be focused on efforts to counter the Islamic State 
of Iraq and the Levant. The conferees direct the Secretary of 
Defense to brief the congressional defense committees, not 
later than 90 days after enactment of this Act, regarding 
utilization of the IED precursor chemical authority to date, 
the plans for future employment of the authority, and a 
discussion of additional authorities that would be useful to 
the efforts to stem the flow of IED precursor chemicals and 
components.
      Furthermore, the conferees note that Section 1532(c) of 
the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2016 
(Public Law 114-92), required a plan for transition of the 
Joint Improvised-Threat Defeat Agency (JIDA) activities, 
functions, and resources to an existing military department or 
Defense Agency. On January 29, 2016, the congressional defense 
committees were notified by the Under Secretary of Defense for 
Acquisition, Technology and Logistics that the entirety of 
activities, functions, and resources of JIDA would transition 
under the authority, direction, and control of the Defense 
Threat Reduction Agency (DTRA) not later than September 30, 
2016 as the Joint Improvised-Threat Defeat Organization (JIDO).
      The conferees support the transition of JIDA as JIDO 
under the authority, direction, and control of DTRA. 
Integration of the roles, mission, and activities of JIDA under 
DTRA should result in reduced overhead management costs while 
maintaining core competencies of each entity in order to 
respond to warfighter needs. The conferees commend the 
identification of potential areas to reduce overhead costs and 
achieve efficiencies in the transition plan submitted on August 
21, 2016. However, the conferees note the lack of detail 
regarding the processes used to integrate cost reduction 
efforts into the ongoing transition plan needed to realize 
savings and efficiencies.
      The conferees recognize the transition will impact both 
DTRA's and JIDA's organizational construct. The conferees also 
recognize that the transition and associated efficiencies may 
warrant changes in JIDA's leadership construct and associated 
billets as JIDA becomes an organization under the authority, 
direction, and control of DTRA.
      Therefore, the conferees direct the Under Secretary of 
Defense for Acquisition, Technology and Logistics to brief the 
congressional defense committees, not later than 60 days after 
enactment of this act, on the implementation of the transition 
of JIDA to DTRA as JIDO. The briefing shall include a progress 
report on the overhead cost reductions and efficiencies as well 
as cost reduction processes identified in the transition plan, 
an identification of efficiencies expected to be achieved in 
addition to those identified in the initial transition plan, 
the organizational and command and control constructs of DTRA 
and JIDO, an overview of the combined budget estimations across 
the Future Years Defense Program, and a description of how the 
core competencies of both DTRA and JIDO are being retained in 
order to fulfill designated missions and respond to warfighter 
needs.
Extension of authority to use Joint Improvised Explosive Device Defeat 
        Fund for training of foreign security forces to defeat 
        improvised explosive devices (sec. 1523)
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 1533) 
that would modify section 1533(e) of the National Defense 
Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2016 (Public Law 114-92) by 
extending the Authority to use the Joint Improvised Explosive 
Device Defeat Fund for training of foreign security forces to 
defeat improvised explosive devices and precursor chemicals 
from September 30, 2018, to September 30, 2020.

        Partnerships Fund (sec. 1525)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 1532) that 
would modify and extend for 1 fiscal year section 1534 of the 
National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2015 (Public 
Law 113-291).
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes.

requested by the Department of Defense for the CTPF was 
transferred to Operations and Maintenance, Defense-Wide, 
Defense Security Cooperation Agency, consistent with the reform 
of the Department of Defense's security cooperation programs 
and associated funding. It is the intent of the conferees that

Cooperation Agency be available for the purposes authorized in 
chapter 16 of title 10, United States Code as added elsewhere 
in this Act.

        program (sec. 1601)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 1038) that 
would repeal section 8048 of the Department of Defense 
Appropriations Act, Fiscal Year 2016 (division C, Public Law 
114-113; 129 Stat. 2363).
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes.
Exception to the prohibition on contracting with Russian suppliers of 
        rocket engines for the evolved expendable launch vehicle 
        program (sec. 1602)
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 1602) 
that would modify section 1608 of the Carl Levin and Howard P. 
``Buck'' McKeon National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal 
Year 2015 (Public Law 113-291), as amended by section 1607 of 
the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2016 
(Public Law 114-92) by striking subsection (c) and inserting a 
new subsection. The new subsection would state that the 
prohibition would not apply to either the placement of orders 
or exercise of options under the contract numbered FA8811-13-C-
0003 and awarded on December 18, 2013, or contracts that are 
awarded for the procurement of property or services for space 
launch activities that include the use of a total of 18 rocket 
engines designed or manufactured in the Russian Federation in 
addition to the Russian-designed or manufactured engines to 
which paragraph (1) applies.
      The Senate bill contained a similar provision (sec. 829B) 
that would allow until December 31, 2022, the Secretary of 
Defense to award contracts to launch providers of launch 
services that intends to use any certified launch vehicle in 
its inventory without regard to the country of origin of the 
rocket engine that will be used on that launch vehicle. The 
provision would limit the total number of rocket engines 
designed or manufactured in the Russian Federation to not more 
than eighteen.
      The Senate recedes with an amendment that would adopt the 
House language and prohibit the award of a contract requiring a 
rocket engine designed or manufactured in the Russian 
Federation after December 31, 2022.
Rocket propulsion system to replace RD-180 (sec. 1603)
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 1601) 
that would modify section 1604 of the Carl Levin and Howard P. 
``Buck'' McKeon National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal 
Year 2015 (Public Law 113-291), as amended by section 1606 of 
the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2016 
(Public Law 114-92).
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes with a clarifying amendment.
Plan for use of allied launch vehicles (sec. 1604)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 1602) that 
would require the Commander of the Air Force Space Command to 
develop a contingency plan for using allied space launch 
vehicles to meet assured access to space requirements should 
the Department of Defense not be able to meet those 
requirements, for a limited period of time, using only United 
States launch vehicles.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes with an amendment that would require 
the Secretary of Defense to coordinate the required plan with 
the Director of National Intelligence. The amendment would 
require the required plan assess the relevant laws, 
regulations, and policies governing the launch of national 
security satellites and whether any legislative, regulatory, or 
policy actions (including with respect to waivers) would be 
necessary to allow for the launch of a national security 
satellite on an allied launch vehicle. The amendment also 
requires an assessment of the certification requirements for 
using allied launch vehicles pursuant to the plan and the 
estimated cost, schedule, and actions that would be necessary 
to certify allied launch vehicles.
      The conferees note that the term ``allied launch 
vehicle'' explicitly prohibits the consideration of space 
launch vehicles from Russia, China, Iran, and North Korea.
      The conferees expect that the Secretary and Director take 
into consideration the findings of the related study of options 
for a backup plan for assured access to space as identified in 
the Fiscal Year 2016 National Defense Authorization Act Joint 
Explanatory Statement.
Analysis of alternatives for wide-band communications (sec. 1605)
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 1603) 
that would amend section 1611 of the National Defense 
Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2016 (Public Law 114-92) by 
striking subsection (b) and would insert a requirement for the 
Secretary of Defense to develop study guidance for the analysis 
of alternatives for wide-band communications to consider the 
full range of military and commercial satellite communications 
capabilities, acquisition processes, and service delivery 
models. The provision would also require the Secretary to 
ensure that any cost assessments of military or commercial 
satellite communications systems include detailed full life 
cycle costs, as applicable, including but not limited to 
military personnel, military construction, military 
infrastructure operation, maintenance costs, and ground and 
user terminal impacts; and to also identify any considerations 
relating to the use of military versus commercial systems for 
wide-band satellite communications. The provision would also 
direct the Comptroller General of the United States to assess 
the sufficiency of the study.
      The Senate bill contained a similar provision (sec. 1608) 
that would require the Comptroller General to assess the types 
of analyses the Department of Defense has conducted to 
understand the costs and benefits of the use of KA-band 
commercial satellite communications by the department.
      The Senate recedes with an amendment that would combine 
the Senate and House provisions.
Modification to pilot program for acquisition of commercial satellite 
        communications services (sec. 1606)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 1601) that 
would amend section 1605 of the Carl Levin and Howard P. 
``Buck'' McKeon National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal 
Year 2015 (Public Law 113-291) to prohibit the obligation or 
expenditure of any funding made available until the Secretary 
of Defense submits to the congressional defense committees a 
plan to demonstrate that the pilot program will achieve order-
of-magnitude improvements in satellite communications 
capability.
      The House amendment contained a similar provision (sec. 
1604) that would also amend section 1605 of the Carl Levin and 
Howard P. ``Buck'' McKeon National Defense Authorization Act 
for Fiscal Year 2015 (Public Law 113-291), as amended by 
section 1612 of the National Defense Authorization Act for 
Fiscal Year 2016 (Public Law 114-92), by adding a requirement 
that in developing and carrying out the pilot program, the 
Secretary shall take actions to begin the implementation of 
each specified goal by not later than September 30, 2017.
      The House recedes with an amendment that would merge the 
two provisions and prohibit the obligation or expenditure of 5 
percent of the funds authorized to be appropriated by this Act 
or otherwise made available for fiscal year 2017 for the 
headquarters of Air Force Space Command until the Secretary of 
Defense submits a plan to demonstrate that the pilot program 
will achieve order-of-magnitude improvements in satellite 
communications capability.
      The conferees agree that the pilot program and 
pathfinders are separate but complementary efforts. The 
conferees direct the Secretary of Defense to provide a briefing 
to the Congressional Defense committees by December 1, 2016 on 
the status of the pilot program and pathfinder activities, 
including an implementation timeline and an identification of 
any implementation challenges and options to address them.
Space-based environmental monitoring (sec. 1607)
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 1605) 
that would direct the Secretary of Defense and the Director of 
the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) to 
establish mechanisms to collaborate and coordinate in defining 
the roles and responsibilities of the Department of Defense and 
NOAA with regards to carrying out space-based environmental 
monitoring and planning for future non-governmental space-based 
environmental monitoring capabilities.
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes with a technical amendment.
      The conferees note that this is not an authorization for

      The conferees note that the Secretary of Defense is 
making efforts to increase the department's use of and exposure 
to innovative commercial information technologies and increase 
outreach to innovative small businesses in locations including 
Silicon Valley. Many of the technologies and systems of 
interest are within the mission area of DISA.
      However, the conferees note with acute concern that at 
the same time this trend is occurring to seek out and exploit 
new commercial innovation, DISA appears to be reducing its 
support for research and technology innovation, and has limited 
connectivity and coordination with other science and technology 
activities of the Department of Defense. The conferees believe 
that for a technology organization to eliminate its funding for 
flexible exploration of new technology is short-sighted and 
detrimental to the long term health of the organization. The 
conferees are concerned that DISA has not adequately linked its 
research and technology needs in a way to support the overall 
missions of the Agency, which has repercussions on the 
workforce it is able to attract, and the quality of support it 
is able to provide the warfighter. To use one example, the 
conferees believe that such behavior has impacted the ability 
of the Agency to fully realize the benefits, as well as the 
operational challenges and potentialities of emerging 
technologies like cloud and mobile computing, cyber defense and 
big data analytics. That impacts interactions with industry, 
but the conferees also believe that DISA has not adequately 
leveraged potential relationships with DOD labs and other 
innovative research activities. The conferees believe that 
through the process of developing a regular strategic plan, the 
Director of DISA should be taking the opportunity to develop 
closer coordination with appropriate research and development 
organizations in the Office of the Secretary of Defense and the 
Military Services to improve DISA's innovative capacity, 
strengthen its R&D programs, and improve DOD's ability to adopt 
the best commercial and other information technologies to 
support defense missions.
Plan for information security continuous monitoring capability and 
        comply-to-connect policy; limitation on software licensing 
        (sec. 1653)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 1638) that 
would require the Chief Information Officer of the Department 
of Defense and the Commander of United States Cyber Command, in 
coordination with the Principal Cyber Adviser, to jointly 
develop a plan for a modernized, enterprise-wide information 
security continuous monitoring capability and a comply-to-
connect policy.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes with a technical amendment.
Reports on deterrence of adversaries in cyberspace (sec. 1654)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 1639) that 
would require the Secretary of Defense to submit a report to 
the congressional defense committees specifying in detail the 
authorities that have been delegated by the President to the 
Secretary for conducting cyber operations. The report would 
require the Secretary to detail the standing authorities and 
limitations that authorize or limit the Secretary in conducting 
cyber operations and how those authorities compare to the 
authorities delegated to the Secretary for activities in non-
cyber domains.
      The Senate bill also contained a provision (sec. 1640) 
that would require the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff to 
submit to the President and the congressional defense 
committees a report on the military and nonmilitary options 
available to the United States to deter Russia, China, Iran, 
North Korea, and terrorist organizations in cyberspace. The 
provision would require the report to include an assessment of 
the effectiveness of the deterrence options available. It also 
would require the Chairman provide an integrated priorities 
list of cyber deterrence capabilities of the Department of 
Defense that identify, at a minimum, high priority capability 
needs prioritized across armed forces and functional lines, 
risk areas, and long-term strategic planning issues. The 
provision would also require within 60 days of receiving the 
report from the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, that the 
President submit to the congressional defense committees a 
separate report identifying when an action carried out in 
cyberspace constitutes an act of war against the United States. 
The report would include (1) identification of what actions 
carried out in cyberspace constitute an act of war against the 
United States; (2) identification of how the law of war applies 
to the cyber operations of the Department of Defense; (3) 
identification of the circumstances required for responding to 
a cyber attack against the United States; and (4) a declaratory 
policy on the use of cyber weapons by the United States.
      The House amendment contained a related provision (sec. 
1636) that would require the Secretary of Defense submit a 
report to the congressional defense committees on the policies, 
doctrine, procedures, and authorities governing Department of 
Defense activities in response to malicious cyber activities 
carried out against the United States or United States persons 
by foreign states or non-state actors.
      The House recedes with an amendment that would combine 
the three related provisions.
      The conferees note that in preparing the report required 
by the provision the President shall consider (1) what severity 
of cyber attack would elicit a military response; (2) The ways 
in which the effects of a cyber attack may be equivalent to 
effects of an attack using conventional kinetic weapons, 
including with respect to physical destruction or casualties; 
(3) intangible effects of significant scope, intensity, or 
duration; and (4) how the law of neutrality applies, how the 
utilization or exploitation of communications infrastructure in 
neutral States applies, and what limitations, if any, apply in 
exercising the right of the United States to act in self-
defense through a cyber-operation.
Sense of Congress on cyber resiliency of the networks and 
        communications systems of the National Guard (sec. 1655)
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 1638) 
that would assert the sense of Congress concerning cyber 
resiliency of the networks and communications systems of the 
National Guard.
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes with an amendment that encourages the 
National Guard to budget within National Guard resources.

                       Subtitle D--Nuclear Forces

Improvements to Council on Oversight of National Leadership Command, 
        Control, and Communications System (sec. 1661)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 1652) that 
would modify an existing report and add an assessment of the 
readiness of the command, control, and communications system 
for the national leadership of the United States.
      The House amendment contained a similar provision (sec. 
1641) that would require a report on space architecture 
development and limits funding to make changes to the command, 
control, and communications system in a manner that reduces 
warning time provided to the national leadership of the United 
States with respect to a warning of a strategic missile attack 
on the United States.
      The conference agreement includes both the House and 
Senate provisions.
      The General Accountability Office (GAO) in its report 
titled Nuclear Command, Control, and Communications: DOD Has 
Taken Steps to Address Sustainment and Maintenance Challenges 
for Critical Satellite Systems but Could Better Identify Risks 
and Mitigation Actions, GAO-16-370C (May 26, 2016). In that 
report the GAO highlighted a number of concerns regarding 
critical satellite systems used for nuclear command, control, 
and communications and recommended the Department of Defense 
take action to improve the identification of risks and 
mitigation actions. DOD, in its official response to GAO's 
report, disagreed with GAO's recommendation. The department 
stated that it understood the concerns that GAO raised in 
respect to risks to these systems, but stated that DOD has a 
strong governance and oversight structure. The department 
asserted that it believes the actions taken to date address 
risk at an acceptable level with the transition of these 
satellite systems to their replacement systems.
      Given the concerns raised by the GAO in its report, the 
conferees direct the Council on Oversight of the National 
Leadership Command, Control, and Communications System to 
provide a written assessment to the congressional defense 
committees that details (1) the actions the department has 
taken to identify the risks associated with the transition of 
these critical satellite systems, (2) information about the 
department's evaluation of the acceptability of each of the 
identified risks, and (3) information regarding actions the 
department has identified to mitigate these risks. The 
committee directs the Council to provide its written assessment 
to the congressional defense committees no later than February 
28, 2017.
Treatment of certain sensitive information by State and local 
        governments (sec. 1662)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 1055) that 
would authorize the Secretary of Defense to designate 
information as being Department of Defense critical 
infrastructure security information to ensure that such 
information is not disseminated without authorization.
      The House amendment contained a similar provision (sec. 
1642).
      House recedes with technical and conforming amendments.
Procurement authority for certain parts of intercontinental ballistic 
        missile fuzes (sec. 1663)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 1651) that 
would give the Department of Defense the authority to buy 
intercontinental ballistic missile fuze parts.
      The House amendment contained an identical provision 
(sec. 1643).
      The conference agreement includes this provision.
Prohibition on availability of funds for mobile variant of ground-based 
        strategic deterrent missile (sec. 1664)
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 1644) 
that would prohibit funds authorized to be appropriated to 
retain the option for, or develop, a mobile variant of the 
ground-based strategic deterrent missile.
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes.
Limitation on availability of funds for extension of New START Treaty 
        (sec. 1665)
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 1645) 
that would limit authorized funds to be appropriated for the 
Department of Defense to extend the New Start Treaty under 
certain circumstances.
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes with an amendment that would change 
the reporting period from 180 days to 120 days following the 
submission of both the report required by the provision and the 
National Intelligence Estimate.
Certifications regarding integrated tactical warning and attack 
        assessment mission of the Air Force (sec. 1666)
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 1646) 
that would require the Secretary of the Air Force to 
consolidate under a major command, commanded by a single 
general officer, the responsibility, authority, accountability, 
and resources for carrying out the nuclear command, control, 
and communications functions of the Air Force by March 31, 
2017. This consolidation would be required to include, at a 
minimum, all terrestrial and aerial components of the nuclear 
command and control system that are survivable and endurable, 
as well as all terrestrial and aerial components of the 
integrated tactical warning and attack assessment (ITW/AA) 
system that are survivable and endurable.
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes with an amendment that would require 
that, not later than March 31, 2017 and each year through 2020, 
the Commander of the U.S. Strategic Command certify to the 
Secretary of Defense and the congressional defense committees 
that the Air Force is organized, staffed, trained and equipped 
to carry out the portions of the ITW/AA system assigned to the 
Air Force that are survivable and endurable. The Commander 
would further be required to certify that the programs and 
plans of the Air Force for sustaining, modernizing, training 
and exercising capabilities relating to such missions are 
sufficient for mission success. If the Commander of the U.S. 
Strategic Command does not make such a certification, the 
Secretary of the Air Force would be required to immediately 
consolidate the terrestrial and aerial components of the ITW/AA 
system that are survivable and enduring under the Air Force 
Global Strike Command. The amendment also contains a rule of 
construction that this section may not be construed to affect 
any responsibilities relating to the ITW/AA system in effect on 
the date of enactment of this Act pursuant to certain 
agreements between the United States and Canada.
Matters relating to intercontinental ballistic missiles (sec. 1667)
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 1649A) 
that would state the policy of the United States to maintain 
and modernize a responsive and alert intercontinental ballistic 
missile force and prohibit (1) funding for reducing the 
responsiveness or alert level of the intercontinental ballistic 
missiles of the United States and (2) reducing the quantity of 
deployed intercontinental ballistic missiles of the United 
States to less than 400.
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes with an amendment that would drop the 
policy statement and add an element on cost to the reporting 
requirement.
Requests for forces to meet security requirements for land-based 
        nuclear forces (sec. 1668)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 1655) that 
would require the Secretary of Defense and the Chairman of the 
Joint Chiefs of Staff to decide if the land-based missile 
fields using UH-1N helicopters meet security requirements and 
if there are any shortfalls or gaps in meeting such 
requirements.
      The House amendment contained a similar provision (sec. 
1649) that would require the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of 
Staff to certify to the congressional defense committees that 
the Chairman has approved any requests for forces of a 
commander of a combatant command to meet the security 
requirements of land-based nuclear forces.
      The Senate recedes with an amendment that would combine 
the two provisions while eliminating the certification required 
under the House provision. The provision includes a restriction 
of 25 percent on travel and representational expenses of the 
Under Secretary of Defense for Acquisition, Technology, and 
Logistics until the Under Secretary certifies that there is an 
acquisition process in place to ensure that a UH-IN replacement 
aircraft is under contract in fiscal year 2018.
Report on Russian and Chinese political and military leadership 
        survivability, command and control, and continuity of 
        government programs and activities (sec. 1669)
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 1647) 
that would require the Director of National Intelligence to 
submit to the appropriate congressional committees, a report on 
the leadership survivability, command and control, and 
continuity of government programs and activities with respect 
to the People's Republic of China and the Russian Federation.
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes.
Review by the Comptroller General of the United States of 
        recommendations relating to nuclear enterprise of Department of 
        Defense (sec. 1670)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 1653) that 
would require the Comptroller General to review the Department 
of Defense's nuclear enterprise review process to ascertain 
whether recommendations are adequately being implemented.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes.
Sense of Congress on nuclear deterrence (sec. 1671)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 1654) that 
would state the sense of Congress that the nuclear forces of 
the United States continue to play a fundamental role in 
deterring aggression against the interests of the United States 
and its allies. It also states that the prevention of war 
through effective deterrence requires survivable and flexible 
nuclear forces that are well exercised and ready to respond to 
nuclear escalation if necessary.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes with an amendment that would update the 
provision to take into account the July 2016 NATO Warsaw Summit 
communique.
Sense of Congress on importance of independent nuclear deterrent of 
        United Kingdom (sec. 1672)
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 1648) 
that would express the sense of Congress that the United States 
believes that the independent nuclear deterrent and decision-
making of the United Kingdom provides a crucial contribution to 
international stability, the North Atlantic Treaty Organization 
alliance, and the national security of the United States.
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes.

                  Subtitle E--Missile Defense Programs

National missile defense policy (sec. 1681)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 1665) that 
would remove the word ``limited'' from Section 2 of the 
National Missile Defense Act of 1999 (Public Law 106-38; 10 
U.S.C. 2431 note).
      The House amendment contained a similar provision (sec. 
1665) that would replace the National Missile Defense Act of 
1999 with new policy language to the effect that the United 
States should maintain and improve a robust layered missile 
defense system capable of defending the territory of the United 
States and its allies against the developing and increasingly 
complex ballistic missile threat.
      The Senate recedes with an amendment that would add to 
the House provision language making it clear that the United 
States should deploy effective missile defense systems.
      The conferees note, nothing in this legislative provision 
requires or directs the development of missile defenses against 
any country or its strategic nuclear forces.
Extensions of prohibitions relating to missile defense information and 
        systems (sec. 1682)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 1666) that 
would extend prohibitions relating to missile defense 
information and systems as described in section 130h(d) of 
title 10, United States Code, to 2018.
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 1651) 
that would prohibit funds to integrate a missile defense system 
of the Russian Federation or a missile defense system of the 
People's Republic of China into any missile defense system of 
the United States, and which would extend this prohibition, and 
a prohibition on sharing certain missile defense information 
with Russia, to 2027.
      The Senate recedes with an amendment that would extend 
the current prohibitions by two years to January 1, 2019.
Non-terrestrial missile defense intercept and defeat capability for the 
        ballistic missile defense system (sec. 1683)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 1663) that 
would amend section 1685 of the National Defense Authorization 
Act for Fiscal Year 2016 by adding at the end a new subsection 
stating that no later than 60 days after the submittal of the 
report required, the Director may commence coordination and 
activities associated with research, development, test, and 
evaluation on the programs described.
      The House amendment contained a similar provision (sec. 
1656) that would require the Director of the Missile Defense 
Agency to commence the planning for concept definition, design, 
research, development, engineering evaluation, and test of a 
space-based ballistic missile intercept and defeat layer to the 
ballistic missile defense system, including with respect to a 
space test bed for a missile interceptor capability, and submit 
a detailed budget and development plan for these activities 
with the budget of the president submitted for fiscal year 
2018.
      The House recedes.
      The conferees note that while the United States enjoys a 
measure of protection against ballistic missiles of all ranges, 
the ballistic missile threat--including to the U.S. homeland--
continues to grow. The 2010 Ballistic Missile Defense Review 
noted, ``It is difficult to predict precisely how the threat to 
the U.S. homeland will evolve, but it is certain that it will 
do so.'' The conferees agree and received testimony that the 
threat from ballistic missiles has continued to grow in numbers 
and in range and countermeasures, making missiles more complex, 
survivable, reliable, and accurate.
      Likewise, the conferees observe that United States space 
assets are under increasing threat. Director of National 
Intelligence, James Clapper, testified before the Senate Armed 
Services Committee on February 9, 2016 that ``Threats to our 
use of military, civil, and commercial space systems will 
increase in the next few years as Russia and China progress in 
developing counterspace weapon systems to deny, degrade, or 
disrupt U.S. space systems.'' And that ``Russia and China 
continue to pursue weapons systems capable of destroying 
satellites on orbit, placing U.S. satellites at greater risk in 
the next few years. China has probably made progress on the 
antisatellite missile system that it tested in July 2014.''
      All of this is to suggest that the United States cannot 
stop exploring new and more effective means for protecting our 
homeland and forces against ballistic missile threats and for 
guarding our critical civilian and military space assets. This 
provision encourages the Department of Defense to examine the 
feasibility of defeating such threats with a new generation of 
missile defense capabilities based in space.
Review of the missile defeat policy and strategy of the United States 
        (sec. 1684)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 1664) that 
would require the Secretary of Defense and the Chairman of the 
Joint Chiefs of Staff to conduct a review of the strategy, 
programs and capabilities to counter cruise and ballistic 
missiles prior to launch using the full range of active, 
passive, kinetic, and non-kinetic defense measures.
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 1652) 
that required the Secretary of Defense and the Chairman of the 
Joint Chiefs of Staff to conduct a new review of the missile 
defeat capability, policy, and strategy of the United States 
with respect to left and right of launch ballistic missile 
defense, for both regional and homeland missile defense, 
incorporating the full range of active, passive, kinetic and 
non-kinetic defense measures, and integrating offensive and 
defensive forces for the defeat of ballistic and cruise 
missiles.
      The House amendment also contained a provision (sec. 
1662) that required the Secretary of Defense and the Chairman 
of the Joint Chiefs of Staff to submit to the congressional 
defense committees the classified and unclassified declaratory 
policy of the United States regarding the use of the left-of-
launch capability of the United States and how the Secretary 
and Chairman intend to ensure such capability is a deterrent to 
attacks by adversaries.
      The Senate recedes with an amendment that combines the 
three provisions into a single provision with technical changes 
to the former House provision (sec. 1652). The new provision 
reduces the prohibition on acquisition changes to the Missile 
Defense Agency to two years, rather than the indefinite period 
included in the original House provision.
Maximizing Aegis Ashore capability and developing medium range 
        discrimination radar (sec. 1685)
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 1654) 
that would require the Secretary of Defense to conduct a 
complete evaluation of the optimal anti-air warfare capability 
for each current Aegis Ashore site and as part of any future 
deployment by the United States of an Aegis Ashore site. The 
provision also required the Director of the Missile Defense 
Agency to notify Congress whether the preferred location for 
fielding a medium range ballistic missile defense radar for the 
defense of Hawaii would require an updated environmental impact 
statement. The Department would also be required to conduct an 
assessment of the ballistic and air threat against Hawaii and 
the efficacy of making the Aegis Ashore site at the Pacific 
Missile Range Facility operational and deploying the preferred 
alternative for fielding a medium range ballistic missile 
defense sensor for the defense of Hawaii.
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes with an amendment that would require 
the Secretary of Defense to continue the development, 
procurement, and deployment of anti-air warfare capabilities at 
each Aegis Ashore site in Romania and Poland.
      The provision also requires the Director of the Missile 
Defense Agency, if he determines that an updated environmental 
impact statement is required for fielding a medium range 
ballistic missile defense sensor for the defense of Hawaii, to 
commence such action not later than 60 days after the date of 
notification.
      With respect to the requirement for an evaluation of the 
ballistic and air threat to Hawaii and the efficacy of various 
defensive measures, the conferees note that the Department has 
already submitted reports addressing the various alternatives 
and therefore expect the Department only to provide an update.
Technical authority for integrated air and missile defense activities 
        and programs (sec. 1686)
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 1655) 
that would allow the Director of the Missile Defense Agency to 
seek to have staff detailed to the Missile Defense Agency from 
the Joint Functional Component Command for Integrated Missile 
Defense and the Joint Integrated Air and Missile Defense 
Organization in a number the Director determines necessary.
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes.
Hypersonic defense capability development (sec. 1687)
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 1657) 
that would require the Director of the Missile Defense Agency 
to establish a program of record in the ballistic missile 
defense system to develop and field a defensive system to 
defeat hypersonic boost-glide and maneuvering ballistic 
missiles. A limitation was placed on funding for certain 
headquarters operations in the Office of the Secretary of 
Defense until such a program of record is created. A report to 
Congress on the Missile Technology Control Regime (MTCR) was 
also required.
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes with an amendment that would direct 
that the Director of the Missile Defense Agency serve as the 
executive agent for the Department of Defense for the 
development of a capability to counter hypersonic boost-glide 
vehicle capabilities and conventional prompt global strike 
capabilities that may be employed against the U.S., its allies, 
and U.S. deployed forces, and establish a program of record for 
such capability not later than September 30, 2017. Reports to 
Congress must be provided on the architecture and sensors 
needed to detect hypersonic threats and on the military 
capabilities and capability gaps related to the threat posed by 
hypersonic boost-glide vehicles and maneuvering ballistic 
missiles. The limitation on funds and the MTCR report were 
removed.
Conventional Prompt Global Strike weapons system (sec. 1688)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 1672) that 
would require the Secretary of Defense to make a Milestone A 
decision for Conventional Prompt Global Strike no later than 
September 30, 2020, or 8 months after the successful completion 
of the Intermediate Range Flight 2 test.
      The House amendment contained a similar provision (sec. 
1659) that would make no more than 75 percent of funds be 
obligated or expended for research, development, test, and 
evaluation, for the conventional prompt global strike until the 
Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff submits to the 
congressional defense committees a report on warfighter 
requirements and whether the program schedule supports such 
requirements.
      The Senate recedes with an amendment that would combine 
the two provisions, merging the Senate provision into the House 
amendment.
Required testing by Missile Defense Agency of ground-based midcourse 
        defense element of ballistic missile defense system (sec. 1689)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 1661) that 
would require the Director of the Missile Defense Agency to 
administer a flight test of the ground-based mid-course defense 
element of the ballistic missile defense system not less 
frequently than once each fiscal year and allows certain 
exceptions.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes with a clarifying amendment.
Iron Dome short-range rocket defense system and Israeli cooperative 
        missile defense program codevelopment and coproduction (sec. 
        1690)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 1662) that 
would authorize not more than $42.0 million for the Missile 
Defense Agency to provide to the Government of Israel to 
procure Tamir interceptors for the Iron Dome short-range rocket 
defense system through co-production of such interceptors in 
the United States, including certain conditions.
      The House amendment contained a similar provision (sec. 
1653) that would authorize not more than $62.0 million for the 
Missile Defense Agency to provide to the Government of Israel 
to procure Tamir interceptors for the Iron Dome short-range 
rocket defense system through coproduction of such interceptors 
in the United States by industry of the United States, 
including certain conditions. The House provision would also 
authorize not more than $150.0 million to procure the David's 
Sling weapon system and not more than $120.0 million for the 
Arrow 3 Upper Tier interceptor program, including for 
coproduction of parts and components in the United States, 
subject to certain certifications.
      The House recedes with an amendment that would combine 
the two provisions with certain technical corrections and 
clarifications. The certification concerning the requirement 
for a bilateral international agreement required by the 
provision may be waived if the Under Secretary certifies that 
the funds specified for the David's Sling weapon system and for 
the Arrow 3 Upper Tier interceptor program are provided to 
Israel solely for funding the procurement of long-lead 
components and critical hardware in accordance with a 
production plan and funding profile detailing Israeli 
contributions and if the long-lead procurement will be 
conducted in a manner that does not incur nonrecurring 
engineering activity or additional cost to United States 
suppliers. The agreement authorizes $62.0 million to procure 
Tamir interceptors, the amount prescribed in the House 
amendment.
Limitations on availability of funds for lower-tier air and missile 
        defense capability of the Army (sec. 1691)
      The House amendment contained a provision that would 
limit the obligation or expenditure of fifty percent of the 
amount authorized to be appropriated in fiscal year 2017 for 
the Patriot Lower Tier Air and Missile Defense (LTAMDS) 
capability of the Army until certain conditions are met.
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes with an amendment that would reduce 
the limitation to twenty-five percent of the funds authorized 
to be appropriated for LTAMDS Research, Development, Test and 
Evaluation (RDT&E). The amendment would also amend the 
conditions the Department of Defense would need to meet to lift 
the limitation on funds.
      The conferees note that the amended provision would not 
require either a Capabilities Development Document in 2017 or 
Low Rate Initial Production earlier than 2021, nor is it the 
conferees intent to mandate such actions.
      The conferees agree on the vital importance of the 
expeditious fielding of a lower tier air and missile defense 
capability that meets the needs of our warfighters and 
seamlessly integrates with the nation's other deployed, or 
planned to be deployed, air and missile defense capabilities.
      The conferees also note the Government Accountability 
Office's (GAO) recent report on the Army's strategy for 
modernizing the Patriot missile defense system found that 
throughput limitations under the Army's current maintenance 
schedule present an elevated risk of equipment failure. The 
conferees are concerned that potential delays in modernizing 
Patriot systems, components, and software will amplify these 
risks as units continue to train, deploy, and operate legacy 
Patriot equipment at a high tempo over an extended period.
      Therefore, the conferees direct GAO to assess the Army's 
Patriot maintenance and recapitalization plans to ensure that 
operational needs are met. As part of its assessment, the 
conferees direct the GAO to review whether Patriot units are 
undergoing sufficient maintenance in between deployments, and 
the extent to which the Army has identified and assessed 
options for increasing its maintenance throughput, including 
associated costs and impacts on Patriot training and 
operations. The GAO also should assess whether and how the Army 
plans to mitigate the risk of equipment failure should Patriot 
modernization efforts be delayed. The GAO shall complete its 
review and report to congressional defense committees at an 
agreed upon date.

and an evaluation of transportable ground-based interceptors by 
the Director of the Missile Defense Agency.
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes with an amendment that would strike 
the certification required by the Commander of United States 
Northern Command, and make it clear that the industrial base 
requirements required by the report be those requirements 
generally understood by the Missile Defense Agency.
Semiannual notifications on missile defense tests and costs (sec. 1695)
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 1664)

Availability of certain amounts to meet requirements in connection with 
        United States policy on assured access to space
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 1611) that 
would allow for up to half of the funds made available for a 
replacement space launch propulsion system or new launch 
vehicle in fiscal years 2016, 2017, or any future fiscal year,

      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes.
Department of Defense-wide requirements for security clearances for 
        military intelligence officers
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 1621) that 
would require the Secretary of Defense to ensure that each 
military intelligence officer serving as a unit or service 
intelligence officer, or in command of an intelligence unit or 
activity, has an active security clearance.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes.
      The conferees note with displeasure the recent situation 
in which an officer serving as the Deputy Chief of Naval 
Operations for Information Warfare, N2/N6, Office of the Chief 
of Naval Operations, and Director of Naval Intelligence, was 
unable to fully perform the duties of the office to which he 
was appointed, with the advice and consent of the Senate, 
because his access to classified information was suspended. The 
conferees expect that in the future every officer serving as a 
unit or service intelligence officer, or in command of an 
intelligence unit or activity will have an active security 
clearance.
Limitation on availability of funds for intelligence management
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 1621)

Forces of the United States and to the defense of the European 
allies of the United States by increasing the ballistic missile 
defense capability of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization.
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The conferees note that on July 9, 2016, the Heads of 
State and Government participating in the meeting of the North 
Atlantic Council in Warsaw, Poland, issued the ``Warsaw Summit 
Communique.'' In that document, the Heads of State and 
Government stated that:
      ``At our Summit in Chicago in 2012, we declared the 
achievement of an Interim NATO BMD Capability as an 
operationally significant first step. At the Wales Summit, we 
welcomed the forward deployment of BMD-capable Aegis ships to 
Rota, Spain that could be made available to NATO. Today a new 
milestone in the development of NATO BMD has been reached and 
we are pleased to declare the achievement of the NATO BMD 
Initial Operational Capability. This is a significant step 
toward the aim of NATO BMD that offers a stronger capability to 
defend our populations, territory, and forces across southern 
NATO Europe against a potential ballistic missile attack. The 
Aegis Ashore site in Deveselu, Romania represents a significant 
portion of this increase in capability, and the command and 
control (C2) of the Aegis Ashore site is being transferred to 
NATO. We also welcome that Turkey hosts a forward-based early-
warning BMD radar at Kurecik and that Poland will be hosting an 
Aegis Ashore site at the Redzikowo military base. We are also 
pleased that additional voluntary national contributions have 
been offered by Allies, and we encourage further voluntary 
contributions, all of which will add robustness to the 
capability.''
      The Communique further stated that, ``NATO missile 
defence is not directed against Russia and will not undermine 
Russia's strategic deterrence capabilities. NATO missile 
defence is intended to defend against potential threats 
emanating from outside the Euro-Atlantic area.''
      The House recedes.

methodologies to military installation operating technologies, 
including industrial control systems, to increase resilience 
against cybersecurity threats.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes.
      The conferees note that elsewhere in the conference 
agreement there is a requirement for the Secretary of Defense 
to conduct a pilot program to assess the feasibility and 
advisability of applying, innovative methodologies or 
engineering approaches to improve the defense of control 
systems against cyber attacks in order to increase the 
resilience of military installations against cybersecurity 
threats and prevent or mitigate the potential for high-
consequence cyberattacks, and to inform future requirements 
development for such systems.

         Title XVII--Guam World War II Loyalty Recognition Act

Guam World War II Loyalty Recognition Act (secs. 1701-1707)
      The House amendment contained a number of provisions 
(sec. 7301-7306) that would honor the suffering and loyalty of 
the residents of Guam during its occupation by Imperial 
Japanese forces during the Second World War and direct the 
federal government to adjudicate and facilitate the claims of 
compensable Guam victims and survivors of compensable Guam 
decedents.
      Specifically, the House amendment contained a provision 
(sec. 7302) that would express the eternal gratitude of the 
United States to the residents of Guam for their loyalty and 
courage under threat of death and great bodily harm at the 
hands of occupying forces. It also contained a provision that 
would direct the Secretary of the Treasury to establish a 
special fund for the payment of claims to compensable Guam 
victims and their survivors (sec. 7303), a provision that would

determine eligibility for claims under the aforementioned 
section 7304 (sec. 7305). Finally, it contained a provision 
that would direct the Secretary of the Interior to establish a 
grant program designed to educate and to memorialize the 
occupation of Guam while honoring the loyalty of its 
inhabitants (sec. 7306) and a provision that would authorize 
appropriations for the aforementioned sections 7304 and 7305 
for any fiscal year beginning after the date of the enactment, 
with $5,000,000 authorized per fiscal year for section 7306 
(sec. 7307).
      The Senate bill contained no similar provisions.
      The Senate recedes.

      Title XVIII--Matters Relating to Small Business Procurement

  Subtitle A--Improving Transparency and Clarity for Small Businesses

Plain language rewrite of requirements for small business procurements 
        (sec. 1801)
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 1801) 
that would amend section 15(a) of the Small Business Act (15 
U.S.C. 644(a)) to revise existing statute by better organizing 
the section and modernizing the terms consistent with those in 
titles 10 and 41, United States Code.
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes.
Transparency in small business goals (sec. 1802)
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 1803) 
that would amend section 15(h) of the Small Business Act (15 
U.S.C. 644(h)) to require the Administrator of the General 
Services Administration to issue an annual report on the share 
of total contract value awarded to small businesses.
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes.

      Subtitle B--Clarifying the Roles of Small Business Advocates

Scope of review by procurement center representatives (sec. 1811)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 884) that 
would codify for Department of Defense contracts the 
longstanding exemption contained in Federal Acquisition 
Regulation 19.000(b) that small business set-asides are not 
applied to overseas contracts.
      The House amendment contained a similar provision (sec. 
1811) that would amend section 15(l) of the Small Business Act 
(15 U.S.C. 644(l)) to reverse a regulatory change made by the 
Small Business Administration during enactment of the Small 
Business Jobs Act of 2010 (Public Law 111-240) and to ensure 
that procurement center representatives review consolidated 
contracts or task orders that are fully or partially set aside 
or reserved for small business.
      The Senate recedes with an amendment that would clarify 
that procurement center representatives of the Small Business 
Administration shall not review contracts awarded pursuant to 
status of forces agreements or contracts of the Department of 
Defense awarded and performed overseas. The amendment also 
would stipulate that contracts excluded from procurement center 
representative review shall not be included in any calculation 
of the Department's attainment of the small business goals 
established in 15(g) of the Small Business Act (15 USC 644(g)).
Duties of the Office of Small and Disadvantaged Business Utilization 
        (sec. 1812)
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 1813) 
that would amend section 15(k) of the Small Business Act (15 
U.S.C. 644(k)) to revise the duties of the Offices of Small and 
Disadvantaged Business Utilization in Federal agencies. The 
offices would be authorized to provide assistance to service-
disabled veteran-owned small businesses and participants in the 
Historically Underutilized Business Zone program which are not 
included in the current list of small business programs. The 
offices also would review annual summaries of Government credit 
card purchases to ensure compliance with the Small Business 
Act.
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes.
Improving contractor compliance (sec. 1813)
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 1814) 
that would amend sections 15 and 45 of the Small Business Act 
(15 U.S.C. 644 and 15 U.S.C. 657r), and section 831(e)1(1) of 
the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 1991 
(Public Law 101-510), to promote the availability of existing 
programs that assist small contractors attempting to comply 
with Federal regulations. The Small Business Administration 
would develop a list of no-cost compliance assistance programs 
for small contractors which would be distributed through the 
Small Business Administration and Federal agency small-business 
offices to small contractors. This section would also require 
that any mentor-protege agreement approved by the Small 
Business Administration or the Department of Defense address 
the provision of compliance assistance to the protege firm.
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes.
Improving education on small business regulations (sec. 1814)
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 1861) 
that would amend section 15 of the Small Business Act (15 
U.S.C. 644) to require the Small Business Administration to 
annually share a list of regulatory changes affecting small-
business contracting with entities responsible for training 
acquisition personnel, such as the Federal Acquisition 
Institute and the Defense Acquisition University, and to 
entities providing technical assistance to small contractors. 
This section would also require that the applicable entities 
periodically update training materials.
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes.

      Subtitle C--Strengthening Opportunities for Competition in 
                             Subcontracting

Good faith in subcontracting (sec. 1821)
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 1821) 
that would amend section 8(d) of the Small Business Act (15 
U.S.C. 637(d)) to improve compliance with subcontracting 
requirements.
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes.
Pilot program to provide opportunities for qualified subcontractors to 
        obtain past performance ratings (sec. 1822)
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 1822) 
that would establish a 3-year pilot program in which small, 
first-tier subcontractors could obtain past performance credit 
from the Small Business Administration.
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes with an amendment that would establish 
a deadline by which small business concerns must submit 
requests for a past performance rating.
      The conferees direct the Secretary of Defense to ensure 
that the Department of Defense, its components, and the 
Services are providing timely evaluations of past performance 
and giving due credit to the evaluations previously conducted, 
even those conducted by a different component, Service, or 
agency, consistent with current law and regulation. No later 
than 60 days after enactment of the National Defense 
Authorization for Fiscal Year 2017, the conferees direct the 
Secretary to provide a briefing to the Committees on Armed 
Services of the Senate and the House of Representatives on the 
Department's progress meeting these objectives.
Amendments to the Mentor-Protege Program of the Department of Defense 
        (sec. 1823)
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 1831) 
that would amend section 831 of the National Defense 
Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 1991 (Public Law 101-510), to 
require the Small Business Administration to determine whether 
a prospective protege firm is affiliated with its proposed 
mentor prior to approval of a mentor-protege agreement. The 
same requirement would be removed from the Department of 
Defense.
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes with a technical amendment that would 
better organize the eligibility requirements. The conferees 
note that the changes in this provision will allow for 
determinations of small business status to be made in the same 
manner as such determinations are for purposes of federal 
contracting. The change does not alter the Department's control 
of its mentor-protege program, nor the statutory provision that 
prohibits the Small Business Administration from considering 
support provided by a mentor to a protege firm under this 
program as evidence of affiliation. However, the provision 
would prevent instances of confusion, and the potential for 
fraud, by preventing competing determinations of small business 
status.

                  Subtitle D--Miscellaneous Provisions

Improvements to size standards for small agricultural producers (sec. 
        1831)
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 1863) 
that would amend section 18(b) of the Small Business Act (15 
U.S.C. 647(b)) to revise the definition of an agricultural 
enterprise. This section would also amend section 3(a) of the 
Small Business Act (15 U.S.C. 632(a)) to authorize the Small 
Business Administration to establish different size standards 
for various types of agricultural enterprises. Size standards 
would be established according to the existing method and 
appeals process by which the Small Business Administration 
establishes other size standards.
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes.
Uniformity in service-disabled veteran definitions (sec. 1832)
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 1864) 
that would amend section 3(q) of the Small Business Act (15 
U.S.C. 632(q)) and section 8127 of title 38, United States 
Code, to standardize definitions for veteran-owned small 
businesses (VOSBs) and service-disabled veteran-owned small 
businesses (SDVOSBs). This section would also require the 
Secretary of Veterans Affairs to use the regulations 
established by the Small Business Administration for 
establishing ownership and control of VOSBs and SDVOSBs. The 
Secretary would continue to determine whether individuals are 
veterans or service-disabled veterans and would be responsible 
for verification of applicant firms. Challenges to the status 
of a VOSB or SDVOSB based upon issues of ownership or control 
would be decided by the administrative judges at the Office of 
Hearings and Appeals of the Small Business Administration. This 
section would not affect the Department of Defense.
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes.
Office of Hearings and Appeals (sec. 1833)
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 1866) 
that would amend sections 3(a) and 5(i) of the Small Business 
Act (15 U.S.C. 632(a) and 15 U.S.C. 634(i)) to clarify that the 
Office of Hearings and Appeals will not hear appeals on 
programs not found in the Small Business Act. This section also 
would allow a grace period for appeals that occur before the 
Small Business Administration implements the requirements of 
this section.
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes.
Extension of SBIR and STTR programs (sec. 1834)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 874) that 
would amend sections 9(m) and 9(n)(1) of the Small Business Act 
(15 U.S.C. 638(m)) in order to make the Small Business 
Innovation Research (SBIR) program and the Small Business 
Technology Transfer (STTR) program at the Department of Defense 
permanent.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes with an amendment that would extend the 
programs government-wide for an additional 5 years.
Issuance of guidance on small business matters (sec. 1835)
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 1867) 
that would require the Administrator of the Small Business 
Administration to issue guidance with respect to the changes to 
the Small Business Act made in this title.
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes with a technical amendment that would 
provide a timeline for implementing guidance by the Department 
of Veterans Affairs.

     Subtitle E--Improving Cyber Preparedness for Small Businesses

Small Business Development Center Cyber Strategy and outreach (sec. 
        1841)
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 1869A) 
that would amend section 227 of the Homeland Security Act of 
2002 (6 U.S.C. 148) to grant the Secretary of Homeland Security 
authority to provide assistance to small business development 
centers in the form of training and dissemination of 
information on cybersecurity, as outlined elsewhere in this 
Act.
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes with a technical amendment that would 
maintain consistency in the use of terms such as cyber threat 
awareness.
Role of small business development centers in cybersecurity and 
        preparedness (sec. 1842)
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 1868) 
that would amend section 21 of the Small Business Act (15 
U.S.C. 648) to define the role of the Small Business 
Development Center Cyber Strategy, which was established 
elsewhere in this Act.
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes.
Additional cybersecurity assistance for small business development 
        centers (sec. 1843)
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 1869) 
that would amend section 21(a) of the Small Business Act (15 
U.S.C. 648) to give the Department of Homeland Security the

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

                 Title XXI--Army Military Construction

Summary
      The budget request included authorization of 
appropriations of $503.5 million for military construction and 
$526.7 million for family housing for the Army in fiscal year 
2017.
      The conference agreement includes authorization of 
appropriations of $553.9 million for military construction and 
$483.2 million for family housing for the Army in fiscal year 
2017.
      The agreement includes authorization for three projects 
from the Army's unfunded requirements list: $10.6 million for a 
Company Operations Facility at Fort Gordon, Georgia; $6.9 
million for a Fire Station at Fort Leonard Wood, Missouri; and 
$23.0 million for a Vehicle Maintenance Shop at Fort Belvoir, 
Virginia.
      The conferees note that the budget request included 
$143.6 million for Family Housing New Construction at Camp 
Humphries, Republic of Korea. Furthermore, the conferees are 
aware that this is the first phase of proposed military family 
housing construction at Camp Humphries, with a $153.0 million 
second phase planned for fiscal year 2019. Given the 
requirements that have been established by the Commander of 
U.S. Forces Korea to house command sponsored families on 
installation and the timelines for the relocation of U.S. 
Forces Korea and Eighth Army to Camp Humphries, the conferees 
believe that combining the two phases into a single project 
will result in efficiencies in terms of the financial cost of 
the project and the construction timeline. Therefore, the 
agreement recommends a total authorization of $297.0 million 
for Family Housing New Construction at Camp Humphries, Republic 
of Korea. However, the conferees support the authorization of 
appropriations for fiscal year 2017 only in an amount 
equivalent to the ability of the military department to execute 
in the year of authorization of appropriations. Therefore, the 
agreement recommends $100.0 million, a reduction of $43.6 
million, for this project in fiscal year 2017.
      In addition, the conference agreement authorizes $35.0 
million for the Army's unspecified minor construction program, 
an increase of $10.0 million above the budget request.

                 Title XXII--Navy Military Construction

Summary
      The budget request included authorization of 
appropriations of $1.03 billion for military construction and 
$394.9 million for family housing for the Navy and Marine Corps 
in fiscal year 2017.
      The conference agreement includes authorization of 
appropriations of $1.2 billion for military construction and 
$394.9 million for family housing for the Navy and Marine Corps 
in fiscal year 2017.
      The conference agreement includes authorization for two 
projects from the Navy's unfunded requirements list unfunded 
requirements list: $27.0 million for Chambers Field Magazine 
Recap Phase 1 at Norfolk, Virginia, and $73.0 million for 
SEAWOLF Class Service Pier at Bangor, Washington.
      The agreement includes authorization for three projects 
from the Marine Corp's unfunded requirements list: $118.9 
million for an Aircraft Maintenance Hangar Increment 1 at 
Miramar, California; $34.7 million for a Communication Complex 
& Infrastructure Upgrade at Miramar, California; $40.0 million 
for F-35 Parking Apron at Miramar, California. With respect to 
the Aircraft Maintenance Hangar, we support the authorization 
for appropriations in an amount equivalent to the ability of 
the military department to execute in the year of the 
authorization for appropriations. For this project, the 
conferees believe that the Department of the Navy has exceeded 
its ability to fully expend the funding requested for fiscal 
year 2017. As such, the agreement recommends incremental 
funding with an authorization of appropriations in the amount 
of $79.4 million, a reduction of $39.5 million, for this 
project. Furthermore, the conferees note that these three 
projects at Miramar were included in the Marine Corps' unfunded 
requirements list due to a late development and the need to 
align F-35C squadron operational dates with plans to stand up 
the first F-35C compatible aircraft carrier on the west coast 
of the United States.

regarding the total number of acres of real property controlled 
by the Department of the Navy on the Territory of Guam.
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes with an amendment.
      The conferees are concerned that the Department of the 
Navy has not adequately defined the scope of lands that will be 
returned to the Government of Guam pursuant to the Net Negative 
policy announced in 2011, or the process that will be used to 
identify and transfer such lands. Specifically, the conferees 
are concerned by the ambiguity regarding the status of lands 
identified for return prior to the announcement of the Net 
Negative policy, such as Guam Land Use Plan of 1977, which were 
not originally identified for inclusion in the calculation of 
lands under the Net Negative policy.

           Title XXIV--Defense Agencies Military Construction

Summary
      The budget request included authorization of 
appropriations of $2.06 billion for military construction and 
$62.4 million for family housing for the defense agencies in 
fiscal year 2017.
      The conference agreement includes authorization of 
appropriations of $2.03 billion for military construction and 
$62.4 million for family housing for the defense agencies in 
fiscal year 2017.
      The budget request included $10.0 million for contingency 
construction at various world-wide locations. The conferees 
note that the Department of Defense has not requested a 
military construction project using funds from this account 
since 2008. As such, the agreement recommends no funds, a 
reduction of $10.0 million for this program.
      The budget request included $10.0 million for the Energy 
Conservation Investment Program's Planning and Design 
activities. The conferees recommend that this program be 
carried out as part of the Defense-Wide Military Construction 
program. Therefore, the agreement recommends no funding for the 
Energy Conservation Investment Program's Planning and Design 
activities, a reduction of $10.0 million, and $23.5 million for 
Defense Wide Military Construction Planning and Design 
activities, an increase of $10.0 million, to reflect the 
inclusion of the Energy Conservation Investment Program as part 
of the Defense Wide Military Construction program.
      The budget request included $71.6 million for the 
National Geospatial Intelligence Agency Military Construction 
Planning and Design activities. The conferees understand that 
the National Geospatial Intelligence Agency would be unable to 
execute the full amount requested for Military Construction 
Planning and Design activities in fiscal year 2017. Therefore, 
the agreement recommends $36.0 million, a reduction of $35.6 
million, for this program.
      In addition, the agreement recommends an increase of 
funding for a military construction project not included in the 
budget request, $15.0 million for the Missile Defense Agency 
Military Construction Planning and Design activities for an 
East Coast site for homeland missile defense.

 DIVISION C--DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY NATIONAL SECURITY AUTHORIZATIONS AND 
                          OTHER AUTHORIZATIONS

      Title XXXI--Department of Energy National Security Programs

         Subtitle A--National Security Programs Authorizations

National Nuclear Security Administration (sec. 3101)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 3101) that 
would authorize a total of $12.9 billion for the Department of 
Energy in fiscal year 2017 for the National Nuclear Security 
Administration to carry out programs necessary to national 
security.
      The House amendment contained a similar provision (sec. 
3101) that would authorize appropriations for the National 
Nuclear Security Administration for fiscal year 2017 and would 
also authorize new plant projects for the National Nuclear 
Security Administration.
      The Senate recedes.
      The Department of Energy's (DOE) National Nuclear 
Security Administration (NNSA) is pursuing a revised strategy 
for its Chemistry and Metallurgy Research Replacement (CMRR) 
project after spending $500.0 million on the design of the 
original project and cancelling the Nuclear Facility subproject 
in 2014. The revised project, which is now broken down into 4 
subprojects, includes renovating two existing facilities, the 
RLUOB and the PF-4 facility, at NNSA's Los Alamos site and 
installing plutonium research equipment in those facilities to 
support NNSA's plutonium pit production and defense plutonium 
work in the near term. NNSA is also studying the possibility 
that, in the future, it may need to expand the capacity for 
plutonium chemistry and research beyond that provided by the 4 
subprojects. In addition, NNSA is looking at a modular approach 
of constructing one or more identical buildings to support 
future plutonium pit manufacturing requirements beyond what can 
be currently produced in PF-4. In accordance with DOE Order 
413.3B and the Secretary's guidance on project management, NNSA 
is currently conducting an analysis of alternatives for the 
proposed modular approach.
      The conferees are pleased that NNSA has adopted a 
strategy that maximizes the space within existing facilities to 
the greatest extent practicable while continuing to examine 
options to support future work. However, while the conferees 
recognize the complexity and importance of the CMRR project and 
defense-related plutonium activities in general, the conferees 
remain concerned that NNSA has not adequately estimated the 
cost and schedule, nor properly specified project requirements, 
for either the CMRR project or the proposed modular approach to 
ensure that the two projects together will provide the 
capabilities needed to support NNSA's plutonium strategy, 
including legislatively directed pit production levels.
      To enable the conferees to monitor any future cost 
increases and schedule delays associated with these projects, 
the conferees direct NNSA to brief the congressional defense 
committees, no later than October 1, 2017, on the status of its 
actions taken to address the recommendations contained within a 
recent Government Accountability Office report numbered GAO-16-
585 and titled ``DOE Project Management: NNSA Needs to Clarify 
Requirements for Its Plutonium Analysis Project at Los 
Alamos''. This briefing should be accompanied by a written 
briefing document.
      This briefing should clarify the relationship between the 
requirements for the CMRR project and the proposed modular 
approach and NNSA's plutonium strategy. The briefing should 
identify any gaps between the capabilities these projects will 
deliver and the requirements of the plutonium strategy and 
provide information on NNSA plans to address any such gaps. The 
briefing should also address the degree to which these projects 
can provide plutonium capabilities to support other DOE 
activities outside of the Office of Defense Programs. Finally, 
the briefing should provide an update on the analysis of 
alternatives for the proposed modular approach, including the 
specific requirements identified, the analysis conducted for 
each alternative identified, and the proposed path forward, if 
known.

House recedes with an amendment that would adjust the timeline 
for implementation to four years; require the Administrator to 
work in consultation with NNSA Council; clarify that 
implementation of a common system should be to the extent 
practicable; that such system should be for common financial 
reporting system rather than a common financial system; while 
leveraging CAPE where appropriate; and ensure the reports 
required on progress of implementation include discussion of 
benefits, costs and challenges related to implementation.
      The conferees note that the intention of this provision 
is not to enforce a single financial accounting system upon the 
various management and operating contractors of the nuclear 
security enterprise. Instead, this provision seeks, to the 
extent practicable, commonality and consistency in the way the 
contractors report data up to NNSA to better enable NNSA to 
manage and track programs across the enterprise.

of the contents of each container shipped to the Waste 
Isolation Pilot Plant.
      The Senate bill contained no similar provision.
      The Senate recedes with an amendment that would make 
technical corrections. The conferees note that the 
certification includes the WIPP Waste Acceptance Criteria as 
well as pertinent regulatory requirements for transportation, 
which are consistent with Waste Isolation Pilot Plant Land 
Withdrawal Act, P.L. 102-579, as amended.
Disposition of weapons-usable plutonium (sec. 3116)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 3114) that 
would require the Secretary of Energy to enter into an 
arrangement with the Chief of Engineers to act as an owner's 
agent for the Secretary with respect to the MOX facility. The 
Chief would assess the MOX facility contract and report to the 
Secretary on recommended contract changes to reduce risk and 
cost to the Department of Energy.
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 3113) 
that would direct the Secretary of Energy to carry out 
construction and project support activities relating to the MOX 
facility. The Secretary would be able to waive this requirement 
if certain conditions are satisfied.

within the Department of the Air Force from the ``Judge 
Advocate General's Department'' to the ``Judge Advocate 
General's Corps''; and to amend the definition of ``military

victim is a member of the Armed Forces) or is incompetent, 
incapacitated, or deceased.
      The Senate bill also contained a provision (sec. 5105) 
that would amend section 806b of title 10, United States Code, 
(Article 6b, UCMJ), to clarify the relationship between the 
rights of victims and the disposition of offenses, as well as 
the procedures for judicial appointment of individuals to 
assume the rights of certain victims. The provision would also 
modify Article 6b, UCMJ, to incorporate procedures on defense 
counsel interviews of victims of sex-related offenses into 
Article 6b, UCMJ, and would extend those procedures to victims 
of all offenses, consistent with related victims' rights 
provisions.
      The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 6005) 
that is identical to the Senate provision (sec. 5105).

                 Title LII--Apprehension and Restraint

Article 25a in capital cases), and 4 members in a special 
court-martial. The provision would require a military judge to

      The House recedes.

      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 5163) that 
would amend section 819 of title 10, United States Code, 
(Article 19, Uniform Code of Military Justice (UCMJ)) to 
conform to the proposal in Article 16, UCMJ, that would 
authorize special courts-martial to be referred for trial by 
military judge-alone, and to authorize a military judge to 
designate a military magistrate to preside over trials, and to 
conform to current practice requiring a military judge, 
qualified defense counsel, and a recorder at every special 
court-martial.
      The House amendment contained an identical provision 
(sec. 6303).
      The conference agreement includes this provision.

      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 5164) that

(Article 20, Uniform Code of Military Justice (UCMJ)) by adding 
a new subsection defining the summary court-martial as a non-

conviction.
      The House amendment contained an identical provision 
(sec. 6304).
      The conference agreement includes this provision.

                Title LV--Composition of Courts-Martial

Technical amendment relating to persons authorized to convene general 
        courts-martial (sec. 5181)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 5181) that 
would amend section 822 of title 10, United States Code, 
(Article 22, Uniform Code of Military Justice (UCMJ)) by 
removing the words ``in chief'' to reflect the current 
terminology for the commander of a naval fleet.
      The House amendment contained an identical provision 
(sec. 6401).
      The conference agreement includes this provision.
Who may serve on courts-martial and related matters (sec. 5182)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 5182) that 
would amend section 825 of title 10, United States Code, 
(Article 25, Uniform Code of Military Justice (UCMJ)) to permit 
convening authorities to detail enlisted personnel to court-
martial panels, subject to the accused's ability to 
specifically elect an all-officer panel, under the same rules 
and procedures with which an accused may elect one-third 
enlisted panel membership; to remove the statutory prohibition 
against detailing enlisted members to courts-martial who are 
from the same unit as an enlisted accused; and to conform to 
the proposed amendments to Article 29, UCMJ, concerning 
impaneling of members.
      The House amendment contained a similar provision (sec. 
6402).
      The House recedes with an amendment that would establish 
that sentencing in courts-martial in which members convict the 
accused for any offense would be by military judge alone 
unless, after the findings are announced and before any matter 
is presented in the sentencing phase, the accused requests 
sentencing by members. The amendment retains the requirement 
for sentencing by members in capital cases for which the court-
martial may sentence the accused to death.
      The Department of Defense Military Justice Review Group 
recommended that sentencing should be by military judge alone 
in all cases except in capital cases for which the court-
martial may sentence the accused to death. There may be non-
capital cases in which an accused prefers that his or her 
sentence should be determined by members. The conferees 
determined that it would be appropriate to allow an accused 
found guilty by a court-martial with a military judge and 
members the option to select members for sentencing. The 
conferees further direct that the Military Justice Review Panel 
established elsewhere in this Act shall gather and analyze data 
on the frequency and sentencing outcomes in non-capital cases 
in which an accused requests sentencing by members and to 
include this information in the report to the Committees on 
Armed Services of the Senate and the House of Representatives 
required under this Act.
Number of court-martial members in capital cases (sec. 5183)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 5183) that 
would amend section 825a of title 10, United States Code, 
(Article 25a, Uniform Code of Military Justice (UCMJ)) to 
require a fixed-size panel of twelve members in capital cases.
      The House amendment contained an identical provision 
(sec. 6403).
      The conference agreement includes this provision.
Detailing, qualifications, and other matters relating to military 
        judges (sec. 5184)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 5184) that 
would amend section 826 of title 10, United States Code, 
(Article 26, Uniform Code of Military Justice (UCMJ)) to 
conform the section to the current practice of detailing a 
military judge to every general and special court-martial; to 
provide for cross-service detailing of military judges; to 
require a chief trial judge in each armed force; and to provide 
appropriate criteria for service as a military judge. The 
provision would also authorize the President to establish 
uniform regulations concerning minimum tour lengths for 
military judges with provisions for early reassignment as 
necessary.
      The House amendment contained a similar provision (sec. 
6404).
      The House recedes.
Military magistrates (sec. 5185)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 5178) that 
would amend chapter 47 of title 10, United States Code, to add 
a new section 826a (Article 26a of the Uniform Code of Military 
Justice (UCMJ)) to establish the minimum qualifications for 
military magistrates, and to provide that military magistrates 
may be assigned under service regulations to perform duties 
other than those described under Articles 19 and 30a.
      The House amendment contained a similar provision.
      The House recedes (sec. 6407).
Qualifications of trial counsel and defense counsel (sec. 5186)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 5185) that 
would amend section 827 of title 10, United States Code, 
(Article 27, Uniform Code of Military Justice (UCMJ)) to 
provide that an individual who has served as a preliminary 
hearing officer, court member, military judge, military 
magistrate, or appellate judge on a case may not later serve as 
trial counsel on that case. The provision would require that 
all defense counsel detailed to general or special courts-
martial must be qualified under Article 27(b), and all trial 
counsel and assistant trial counsel detailed to special courts-
martial, and all assistant trial counsel detailed to general 
courts-martial, must be determined to be competent to perform 
such duties under regulations prescribed by the President. The 
provision would also require, to the greatest extent 
practicable, at least one defense counsel detailed for a court-
martial in a case in which the death penalty may be adjudged 
shall be learned in the law applicable to capital cases.
      The House amendment contained a similar provision (sec. 
6405).
      The House recedes.
Assembly and impaneling of members and related matters (sec. 5187)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 5186) that 
would amend section 829 of title 10, United States Code, 
(Article 29, Uniform Code of Military Justice (UCMJ)) to 
clarify the function of assembly and impanelment in general and 
special courts-martial with members, and the limited situations 
in which members may be absent from the court-martial after 
assembly; to provide for the impaneling of 12 members in a 
capital general court-martial, 8 members in a non-capital 
general court-martial, and 4 members in a special court-
martial; to authorize (but not require) the convening authority 
to direct the use of alternate members; and to authorize non-
capital general courts-martial to proceed with a minimum of 6 
members if one or more members are excused for good cause after 
the members have been impaneled. It would further amend Article 
29 to clarify that a newly-detailed court-martial member or 
military judge may consider the record of previously admitted 
evidence through the use of an electronic or other similar 
recording.
      The House amendment contained a similar provision (sec. 
6406).
      The House recedes.

                     Title LVI--Pre-Trial Procedure

Charges and specifications (sec. 5201)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 5201) that 
would amend section 830 of title 10, United States Code, 
(Article 30, Uniform Code of Military Justice (UCMJ)) to 
reorganize the section into three subsections: (a) to provide 
the mode of preferring charges and specifications and the oath 
requirement; (b) to provide the required statement of the 
person who signs the charges; and (c) to prescribe the duty of 
a proper authority to notify the accused of the charges and to 
dispose of them in the interest of justice and discipline. The 
provision would amend Article 30 to clarify the sequence of the 
notification and disposition requirements and to require that 
both actions take place as soon as practicable.
      The House amendment contained an identical provision 
(sec. 6501).

Certain proceedings conducted before referral (sec. 5202)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 5202) that

referral of charges, of certain matters currently subject to 
judicial review only on a delayed basis at trial.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes with an amendment that would limit the 
matters which may be reviewed prior to referral of charges to 
pre-referral investigative subpoenas, pre-referral warrants or 
orders for electronic communications, and pre-referral matters 
referred by an appellate court.

Defense, in consultation with the Secretary of Homeland 
Security, to establish non-binding guidance regarding factors

(Article 34, Uniform Code of Military Justice (UCMJ)) to 
clarify the relationship between the staff judge advocate's 
advice under Article 34 and the general standard for 
disposition of charges and specifications under Article 30. The 
provision would require the convening authority to consult with 
a judge advocate before referral of charges to special courts-
martial. The provision would clarify that formal corrections to 
the charges and specifications may be made before referral for 
trial in special courts-martial as well as in general courts-
martial.

(sec. 6606).
      The conference agreement includes this provision.
Pleas of the accused (sec. 5227)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 5227) that 
would amend section 845 of title 10, United States Code, 
(Article 45, Uniform Code of Military Justice (UCMJ)) to permit 
an accused to plead guilty in capital cases where a sentence of 
death is not mandatory. The provision would delete the 
reference to a court-martial without a military judge. The 
provision would eliminate the need for separate service 
regulations authorizing entry of findings upon acceptance of a 
guilty plea. The provision would add a new subsection to 
provide for harmless error review in guilty plea cases.
      The House amendment contained a similar provision (sec. 
6607).
      The House recedes.
Subpoena and other process (sec. 5228)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 5228) that 
would amend section 846 of title 10, United States Code, 
(Article 46, Uniform Code of Military Justice (UCMJ)) to 
clarify the authority to issue and enforce subpoenas for 
witnesses and other evidence, to allow subpoenas duces tecum to 
be issued for investigations of offenses under the UCMJ when 
authorized by a general court-martial convening authority, and 
to authorize military judges to issue warrants and orders for 
the production of stored electronic communications under the 
Stored Communications Act (sections 2701-2712 of chapter 121, 
title 18, United States Code).
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes with an amendment that would authorize 
a military judge to issue an investigative subpoena before 
referral of charges to a court-martial.
Refusal of person not subject to UCMJ to appear, testify, or produce 
        evidence (sec. 5229)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 5229) that 
would amend section 847 of title 10, United States Code, 
(Article 47, Uniform Code of Military Justice (UCMJ)) to 
provide that a person not subject to the UCMJ who fails to 
comply with military subpoenas issued under Article 46, UCMJ, 
is guilty of an offense against the United States.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes.
Contempt (sec. 5230)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 5230) that 
would amend section 848 of title 10, United States Code, 
(Article 48, Uniform Code of Military Justice (UCMJ)) to 
authorize the contempt power for military judges and military 
magistrates detailed to pre-referral proceedings under the 
proposed Article 30a. The provision would also clarify that 
judges on the United States Court of Appeals for the Armed 
Forces and the service courts of criminal appeals do not have 
to be detailed to cases or proceedings in order to exercise the 
contempt power under this article. The provision would clarify 
that the president (as opposed to the judge) of a court of 
inquiry is vested with the contempt power, and would provide 
for appellate review of contempt punishments consistent with 
the review of other orders and judgments under the UCMJ.
      The House amendment contained a similar provision (sec. 
6608).
      The House recedes with an amendment that would exclude 
commissioned officers detailed as a summary court-martial from 
the officials authorized to punish a person for contempt.
Depositions (sec. 5231)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 5231) that 
would amend section 849 of title 10, United States Code, 
(Article 49, Uniform Code of Military Justice (UCMJ)) to 
conform the UCMJ with the language and function of Federal Rule 
of Criminal Procedure 15(a)(1), and to move the procedural 
aspects of Article 49 to Rules for Courts-Martial 702. The 
provision would clarify that a convening authority or a 
military judge may order depositions only if the requesting 
party demonstrates that, due to exceptional circumstances, it 
is in the interest of justice that the testimony of a 
prospective witness be preserved for use at a court-martial, 
military commission, court of inquiry, or other military court 
or board. The provision would clarify parties who may request a 
deposition, and require that, whenever practicable, depositions 
be taken before an impartial judge advocate. The provision 
would provide that: (1) representation of the parties with 
respect to a deposition shall be by counsel detailed in the 
same manner as trial counsel and defense counsel are detailed 
under Article 27; and (2) the accused shall have the right to 
be represented by civilian or military counsel in the same 
manner as such counsel are provided for in Article 38(b). The 
provision would clarify situations in which depositions may be 
used in military proceedings with a more direct reference to 
the military rules of evidence. The provision would amend the 
section to provide that testimony by deposition may be 
presented in capital cases only by the defense.
      The House amendment contained an identical provision 
(sec. 6609).
      The conference agreement includes this provision.
Admissibility of sworn testimony by audiotape or videotape from records 
        of courts of inquiry (sec. 5232)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 5232) that 
would amend section 850 of title 10, United States Code, 
(Article 50, Uniform Code of Military Justice (UCMJ)) to 
authorize sworn testimony from a court of inquiry to be played, 
in addition to read, into evidence in courts-martial and 
military commissions not established under section 948a, et 
seq., of title 10, United States Code, when it is otherwise 
admissible under the rules of evidence.
      The House amendment contained a similar provision (sec. 
6610).
      The House recedes.
Conforming amendment relating to defense of lack of mental 
        responsibility (sec. 5233)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 5233) that 
would amend section 850a of title 10, United States Code, 
(Article 50a, Uniform Code of Military Justice (UCMJ)) to 
delete provisions pertaining to courts-martial without a 
military judge.
      The House amendment contained an identical provision 
(sec. 6611).
      The conference agreement includes this provision.
Voting and rulings (sec. 5234)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 5234) that 
would amend section 851 of title 10, United States Code, 
(Article 51, Uniform Code of Military Justice (UCMJ)) to delete 
references pertaining to courts-martial without a military 
judge.
      The House amendment contained an identical provision 
(sec. 6612).
      The conference agreement includes this provision.
Votes required for conviction, sentencing, and other matters (sec. 
        5235)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 5235) that 
would amend section 852 of title 10, United States Code, 
(Article 52, Uniform Code of Military Justice (UCMJ)) to 
require concurrence of at least three-fourths of the members 
present, and to require concurrence of at least three-fourths 
of the members present on offenses in a case referred for trial 
as a capital case where there was not a unanimous finding of 
guilty. The provision would eliminate the language concerning 
tie votes on challenges, motions, and other questions, which is 
applicable only to special courts-martial without a military 
judge, and which would no longer be necessary given the 
provision in Article 16, UCMJ, that would eliminate these 
members-only courts-martial.
      The House amendment contained an identical provision 
(sec. 6613).
      The conference agreement includes this provision.
Findings and sentencing (sec. 5236)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 5236) that 
would amend section 853 of title 10, United States Code, 
(Article 53, Uniform Code of Military Justice (UCMJ)) to 
require sentencing by a military judge in all non-capital 
general and special courts-martial. The provision would require 
that, in cases where the accused may be sentenced to death, the 
members shall participate in the sentence determination.
      The House amendment contained no similar provision.
      The House recedes with an amendment to conform to the 
provision under Article 25, UCMJ, as amended in a separate 
provision in this Act, that would provide an accused the option 
to request sentencing by members.
Plea agreements (sec. 5237)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 5237) that 
would amend chapter 47 of title 10, United States Code to add a 
new section 853a (Article 53a, Uniform Code of Military Justice 
(UCMJ)) that would authorize: (1) construction and negotiation 
of charge and sentence agreements; (2) military judges to 
determine whether to accept a proposed plea agreement; and (3) 
the operation of sentence agreements with respect to the 
military judge's sentencing authority. The new Article 53a 
would provide that the military judge shall accept any lawful 
sentence agreement submitted by the parties, except that: (1) 
in the case of an offense with a sentencing parameter under 
Article 56, the military judge may reject the agreement only if 
it proposes a sentence that is both outside the sentencing 
parameter and plainly unreasonable; and (2) in the case of an 
offense without a sentencing parameter, the military judge may 
reject the agreement only if it proposes a sentence that is 
plainly unreasonable.
      The House amendment contained a similar provision (sec. 
6614) that did not include the authority for the military judge 
to reject a sentencing provision that the military judge 
determines is plainly unreasonable.
      The Senate recedes.
Record of trial (sec. 5238)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 5238) that 
would amend section 854 of title 10, United States Code, 
(Article 54, Uniform Code of Military Justice (UCMJ)) to 
require certification of the record by a court reporter. The 
provision would require a complete record in any general or 
special court-martial if the sentence includes death, 
dismissal, discharge, or confinement or forfeitures of pay for 
more than 6 months. The provision would provide all victims who 
testify at a court-martial with access to records of trial.
      The House amendment contained a similar provision (sec. 
6615).
      The House recedes with a technical amendment.

                         Title LVIII--Sentences

Sentencing (sec. 5301)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 5261) that 
would amend section 856 of title 10, United States Code, 
(Article 56, Uniform Code of Military Justice (UCMJ)) to 
replace the court-martial practice of ``unitary'' sentencing 
with ``segmented'' sentencing where, if confinement is adjudged 
for guilty findings, the amount of confinement for each guilty 
finding would be determined separately. The provision would 
also authorize segmented sentencing for fines. The provision 
would authorize sentencing parameters and criteria to provide 
guidance to military judges in determining an appropriate 
sentence and would authorize the United States to appeal a 
sentence to the Court of Criminal Appeals. The provision would 
incorporate Article 56a, authorizing a sentence of confinement 
for life without the eligibility of parole any time a life 
sentence is authorized, into Article 56, UCMJ, without 
substantive change.
      The House amendment contained a similar provision (sec. 
6701) that did not include sentencing parameters.
      The Senate recedes with an amendment to conform to the 
provision under Article 25, UCMJ, as amended in a separate 
provision in this Act, that would provide an accused the option 
to request sentencing by members. In cases in which the accused 
has elected sentencing by members the court-martial will 
announce a single sentence for all the offenses for which an 
accused was found guilty.
Effective date of sentences (sec. 5302)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 5262) that 
would amend section 857 of title 10, United States Code, 
(Article 57, Uniform Code of Military Justice (UCMJ)) to 
consolidate portions of Article 57 and 57a that govern 
deferment of sentences, and portions of Articles 57 and 71 that 
govern when sentences become effective into Article 57, as 
modified. The provision would make a conforming change to 
remove from Article 71 the authority for a convening authority 
to suspend a sentence under Article 71(d). The provision would 
strike Articles 57a and 71, because the authorities in those 
two Articles would be included in Article 57, as modified.
      The House amendment contained a similar provision (sec. 
6702).
      The Senate recedes with a technical amendment.
Sentence of reduction in enlisted grade (sec. 5303)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 5263) that 
would amend section 858a of title 10, United States Code, 
(Article 58a, Uniform Code of Military Justice (UCMJ)) to 
authorize reduction of enlisted members to the grade of E-1 
whenever the approved sentence of a court-martial includes a 
punitive discharge, confinement, or hard labor without 
confinement.
      The House amendment contained a similar provision (sec. 
6703).
      The Senate recedes.

      Title LIX--Post-Trial Procedure and Review of Courts-Martial

Post-trial processing in general and special courts-martial (sec. 5321)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 5281) that 
would amend section 860 of title 10, United States Code, 
(Article 60, Uniform Code of Military Justice (UCMJ)) to 
provide for the distribution of the trial results and to 
authorize post-trial motions to be filed with the military 
judge in general and special courts-martial.
      The House amendment contained an identical provision 
(sec. 6801).
      The conference agreement includes this provision.
Limited authority to act on sentence in specified post-trial 
        circumstances (sec. 5322)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 5282) that 
would amend chapter 47 of title 10, United States Code, to add 
a new section 860a (Article 60a, Uniform Code of Military 
Justice (UCMJ)) to consolidate current limitations on the 
convening authority's post-trial authority in most general and 
special courts-martial, subject to a narrowly limited 
suspension authority and a revised authority to adjust an 
adjudged sentence in cases where an accused provides 
substantial assistance in the investigation or prosecution of 
another person.
      The provision would retain and clarify existing 
limitations on the convening authority's post-trial actions in 
general and special courts-martial in which: (1) the maximum 
sentence of confinement for any offense is more than 2 years; 
(2) adjudged confinement exceeds 6 months; (3) the sentence 
includes dismissal or discharge; or (4) the accused is found 
guilty of designated sex-related offenses. Under current law, 
the convening authority in such cases is prohibited from 
modifying the findings of the court-martial, or reducing, 
commuting, or suspending a punishment of death, confinement of 
more than 6 months, or a punitive discharge.
      The provision would provide a limited suspension 
authority in specified circumstances. For the convening 
authority to exercise this authority, the military judge would 
be required to make a specific suspension recommendation in the 
Statement of Trial Results. The suspension authority would be 
limited to punishments of confinement in excess of 6 months and 
punitive discharges. The provision would retain, with 
clarifying amendments, the key features of current law with 
respect to the convening authority's power to reduce the 
sentence of an accused who assists in the prosecution or 
investigation of another person. As amended, the provision 
would authorize the President to prescribe rules providing for 
a convening authority to exercise this power after entry of 
judgment. This provision would allow for the reduction of a 
sentence of an accused who provides substantial assistance in 
the prosecution of another person, even well after his own 
trial is over and appellate review is complete.
      The provision would allow the accused and a victim of the 
offense to submit matters to the convening authority for 
consideration.
      The provision would require the decision of the convening 
authority to be forwarded to the military judge. If the 
convening authority modified the sentence of the court-martial, 
the convening authority would be required to explain the 
reasons for the modification. An explanation for the convening 
authority's decision would only be required when the convening 
authority modifies the sentence. No approval of the findings or 
sentence would be required. The decision of the convening 
authority would be forwarded to the military judge, who would 
incorporate any change in the sentence into the entry of 
judgment. In a case where the accused provides substantial 
assistance and a designated convening authority reduces the 
sentence of the accused after entry of judgment, the convening 
authority's action would be forwarded to the chief trial judge, 
who would be responsible for ensuring appropriate modification 
of the entry of judgment. Because a modification might happen 
during or after the completion of appellate review, the 
modified entry of judgment would be forwarded to the Judge 
Advocate General for appropriate action.
      The House amendment contained a similar provision (sec. 
6802).
      The Senate recedes with a technical amendment.
Post-trial actions in summary courts-martial and certain general and 
        special courts-martial (sec. 5323)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 5283) that 
would amend chapter 47 of title 10, United States Code, to add 
a new section 860b (Article 60b of the Uniform Code of Military 
Justice (UCMJ)) that would clarify the convening authority's 
post-trial authorities and responsibilities with respect to the 
findings and sentence of summary courts-martial and a limited 
number of general and special courts-martial which, because of 
the offenses charged and the sentence adjudged, would not be 
covered under Article 60a, UCMJ. Consistent with existing law, 
the convening authority in such cases would be authorized to 
act on the findings and the sentence, and could order 
rehearings, subject to certain limitations. The procedural 
requirements under Article 60b, including consideration of 
matters submitted by the accused and victim, would be the same 
as provided in Article 60a. In summary courts-martial, the 
convening authority would be required to act on the sentence, 
and would have discretion to act on the findings, as under 
current law.
      The House amendment contained a similar provision (sec. 
6803).
      The House recedes.
Entry of judgment (sec. 5324)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 5284) that 
would amend chapter 47 of title 10, United States Code, to 
create a new section 860c (Article 60c of the Uniform Code of 
Military Justice (UCMJ)) that would require the military judge 
to enter the judgment of the court-martial into the record in 
all general and special courts-martial, and would mark the 
conclusion of trial proceedings. The judgment would reflect the 
Statement of Trial Results, any action by the convening 
authority on the findings or sentence, and any post-trial 
rulings by the military judge. The judgment also would indicate 
the time when the accused's case becomes eligible for direct 
appeal to a service court of criminal appeals under Article 66, 
or for review by the Judge Advocate General under Article 65. 
This requirement for an entry of judgment is modeled after 
Federal Rules of Criminal Procedure 32(k). The findings and 
sentence of a summary court-martial, as modified by any post-
trial action by the convening authority under Article 60b, 
would constitute the judgment of the court-martial.
      The House amendment contained a similar provision (sec. 
6804).
      The House recedes with a technical amendment.
Waiver of right to appeal and withdrawal of appeal (sec. 5325)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 5285) that 
would amend section 861 of title 10, United States Code, 
(Article 61, Uniform Code of Military Justice (UCMJ)) to 
conform the section with proposed amendments to Articles 60, 
65, and 69 concerning post-trial processing.
      The House amendment contained a similar provision (sec. 
6805).
      The Senate recedes.
Appeal by the United States (sec. 5326)
      The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 5386) that 
would amend section 862 of title 10, United States Code, 
(Article 62, Uniform Code of Military Justice (UCMJ)) to 
authorize the government to appeal a decision when, upon 
defense motion, the military judge sets aside a panel's finding 
of guilty because of legally insufficient evidence, except in
