This includes projects and related activities of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers--Civil and the Bureau of Reclamation of the Department of the Interior. The Federal water resource development program provides lasting benefits to the Nation in the area of flood control, municipal and industrial water supply, irrigation of agricultural lands, water conservation, commercial navigation, hydroelectric power, recreation, and fish and wildlife enhancement. Water is our Nation's most precious and valuable resource. It is evident that water supply in the near future will be as important, if not more so, than energy. There is only so much water available. Water cannot be manufactured. Our Nation cannot survive without water, and economic prosperity cannot occur without a plentiful supply. While many areas of the country suffer from severe shortages of water, others suffer from the other extreme--an excess of water which threatens both rural and urban areas with floods. Because water is a national asset, and because the availability and control of water affect and benefit all States and jurisdictions, the Federal Government has historically assumed much of the responsibility for financing of water resource development. The existing national water resource infrastructure in America is an impressive system of dams, locks, harbors, canals, irrigation systems, reservoirs, and recreation sites with a central purpose--to serve the public's needs. Our waterways and harbors are an essential part of our national transportation system--providing clean, efficient, and economical transportation of fuels for energy generation and agricultural production, and making possible residential and industrial development to provide homes and jobs for the American people. Reservoir projects provide hydroelectric power production and downstream flood protection, make available recreational opportunities for thousands of urban residents, enhance fish and wildlife habitat, and provide our communities and industries with abundant and clean water supplies which are essential not only to life itself, but also to help maintain a high standard of living for the American people. Subcommittee Hearings The Subcommittee on Energy and Water Development of the Committee on Appropriations held four sessions in connection with the fiscal year 2003 appropriation bill. Witnesses included officials and representatives of the Federal agencies under the subcommittee's jurisdiction. Although it is the policy of the subcommittee to receive oral and written testimony from representatives of all of the major Department and Agencies within its jurisdiction, the Army Corps of Engineers provided written testimony only. The administration fired Mike Parker, the Assistant Secretary of the Army for Civil Works, early in the week in which the Army Corps of Engineers hearing was scheduled to take place. Given the confusion and controversy surrounding Mr. Parker's dismissal, the subcommittee elected to accept written testimony in lieu of an oral statement from a lower level appointee in an acting capacity. In addition, the subcommittee received numerous statements and letters from Members of the U.S. Senate and House of Representatives, Governors, State and local officials and representatives, and hundreds of private citizens of all walks of life throughout the United States. Information, both for and against many items, was presented to the subcommittee. The recommendations for fiscal year 2003 therefore, have been developed after careful consideration of available data. Votes in the Committee By a vote of 29 to 0 the Committee on July 24, 2002, recommended that the bill, as amended, be reported to the Senate. ACCRUAL FUNDING OF RETIREMENT COSTS AND POST-RETIREMENT HEALTH BENEFITS The President's Budget included a legislative proposal under the jurisdiction of the Senate Committee on Governmental Affairs to charge to individual agencies, starting in fiscal year 2003, the fully accrued costs related to retirement benefits of Civil Service Retirement System employees and retiree health benefits for all civilian employees. The Budget also requested an additional dollar amount in each affected discretionary account to cover these accrued costs. The authorizing committee has not acted on this legislation, therefore the Senate Appropriations Committee has reduced the dollar amounts of the President's request shown in the ``Comparative Statement of New Budget Authority Request and Amounts Recommended in the Bill'', as well as in other tables in this report, to exclude the accrual funding proposal. The Committee further notes that administration proposals requiring legislative action by the authorizing committees of Congress are customarily submitted in the budget as separate schedules apart from the regular appropriations requests. Should such a proposal be enacted, a budget amendment formally modifying the President's appropriation request for discretionary funding is subsequently transmitted to the Congress. The Senate Appropriations Committee joins with the House Appropriations Committee in raising concern that this practice, which has always worked effectively for both Congress and past administrations, was not followed for the accrual funding proposal. In this case, the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) decided to include accrual amounts in the original discretionary appropriations language request. These amounts are based on legislation that has yet to be considered and approved by the appropriate committees of Congress. This led to numerous misunderstandings both inside and outside of Congress of what was the ``true'' President's budget request. The Committee believes that, in the future, OMB should follow long- established procedures with respect to discretionary spending proposals that require legislative action. TITLE I--DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE--CIVIL DEPARTMENT OF THE ARMY Corps of Engineers--Civil INTRODUCTION The Committee remains concerned about the level of the budget requests for the water resources programs of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. The budget request for fiscal year 2003 is about $600,000,000 less when comparably compared to the amount appropriated in fiscal year 2002. The budget request is extraordinarily unbalanced. Four projects account for 30 percent of the proposed Construction, General budget with the remainder of the projects severely underfunded. The proposed General Investigations budget, which provides funding for studies of water resources needs, is decimated. Only studies in their final year were adequately funded, the remainder were severely underfunded. The proposed Operations and Maintenance budget appears to show an increase, however, when accounting for inflation and a proposed funding transfer that is unlikely to be enacted, the final total is less than the amount appropriated in fiscal year 2002. The budget proposed for the Mississippi River and Tributaries project, is equally inadequate. If the proposed budget request were enacted, the Corps would be forced to terminate on-going construction contracts costing the government some $200,000,000 in termination fees. One of the many examples from the proposed budget involves the Southeast Louisiana project. The budget request proposed $20,083,000 for this project, yet approximately $20,000,000 in additional funding is required in fiscal year 2003 just to keep from terminating work started in fiscal year 2002. If approximately $41,000,000 were appropriated, contract terminations could be avoided, however, no new construction work could be started, and tens of thousands of peoples lives would be at risk from flooding for an additional year. As has been the practice for the last several years, the budget proposal contained no new discretionary study or construction ``starts''. The budget proposal stated that this was done in order to only fund the backlog of on-going work (estimated at $21,000,000,000 in the budget proposal) and that within 10 years, this backlog would be reduced to zero. Followed to conclusion, that would mean that within 10 years the Corps would only be an operation and maintenance agency to oversee past constructed work. Since there are no other nationwide agencies that address water resource problems and needs, one can only assume that all water resource problems will be solved in the next 10 years or that the Federal Government intends to no longer fund water resource development. The Committee does not share the views in the budget proposal and remains concerned about the huge and increasing backlog of infrastructure development, maintenance, and repair over which the Corps has jurisdiction. The proposed budget causes the backlog of unconstructed projects to increase from $40,000,000,000 to $44,000,000,000 and ignores an accelerating critical maintenance backlog which increases from $702,000,000 to $884,000,000. This maintenance backlog will soon become entirely unmanageable under the weight of an aging and crumbling inventory. Proposing no new study or discretionary construction starts, underfunding on-going projects, and providing minimal O&M funding for completed projects leads the Committee to believe that the budget preparation may have been influenced by very narrow interest groups as opposed to providing for a robust national water resources development program. The situation that the proposed budget poses to the Nation's economy and quality of life leave the Committee no option but to step forward in support of these vital projects. The Committee recommendation for the Corps of Engineers totals $4,647,953,000. This is $474,999,000 above the budget request for fiscal year 2003, and is $22,857,000 above the appropriation for the current year. BUILDING AND SITE SECURITY Given the events of September 11, 2001, there has been a recognition for the need of improved security at the nation's infrastructure. The Committee is aware of the increased costs all Federal agencies are beginning to realize. Therefore, the Committee encourages the Corps of Engineers to utilize technology that is presently available in both the private and public sector as it evaluates its future infrastructure security needs. BUDGET CONSTRAINTS The budget allocation for non-Defense discretionary programs contained in the Energy and Water Development bill for fiscal year 2003 are constrained below what is necessary for a robust, balanced national water resources program. Faced with these budget realities, the Committee has had to make tough decisions and choices in the development of the Corps of Engineers' budget request for fiscal year 2003. However, while the budget resources for non-Defense discretionary programs have remained flat or have declined in real terms, the number of requests of the Committee continue to increase. This year the Committee received more than 1,200 requests for funding for water projects within the Corps' Civil Works program. Many supported the funding level in the budget request, but a majority of the requests made of the Committee sought increases over the budgeted amounts or items not contained in the President's budget for fiscal year 2003. BASIS OF COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATION In development of the fiscal year 2003 funding recommendation for the Corps of Engineers, the Committee is not able to include any new construction starts, and has recommended only a limited number of new study starts in an effort to restore balance to the water resource program of the Corps, and to address high priority requests made to the Committee. The limited resources available have been focused on on-going projects where the Corps has contractual commitments. While the Committee has not been able to fund all projects at the optimum level, it has endeavored to provide sufficient funding on each project to mitigate delays and increased costs, to the greatest extent possible, across the entire Corps' Civil Works program. Finally, the Committee received numerous requests to include project authorizations in the energy and water development appropriations bill. In an effort to support and honor congressional authorizing committees jurisdiction, the Committee has not included new project authorizations GENERAL INVESTIGATIONS Appropriations, 2002.................................... $154,350,000 Budget estimate, 2003................................... 102,483,000 Committee recommendation................................ 148,304,000 This appropriation funds studies to determine the need, engineering feasibility, economic justification, and the environmental and social suitability of solutions to water and related land resource problems; and for preconstruction engineering and design work, data collection, and interagency coordination and research activities.

Red River Navigation, Southwest Arkansas, AR and LA.--The Committee recommendation includes $583,000 to complete the cost-shared navigation study. The Committee understands that navigation in the Shreveport, LA, to Index, AR reach is an extension of the existing J. Bennett Johnston Waterway, and as such, urges the Corps to perform an additional analysis using the same discount rate and local cost-sharing requirements as required for the existing waterway. This analysis should be displayed as a part of all study and project documents. Southwest Arkansas Study, AR.--The Committee has provided $200,000 to initiate and complete an expanded reconnaissance study to address flooding, environmental restoration, water quality and other water resource needs in the Red River and Little Red River basins. Rio de Flag, Flagstaff, AZ.--The Committee recommendation includes $880,000 for preconstruction engineering and design phase for Rio de Flag, Flagstaff, AZ. American River Watershed, CA.--The Committee has provided $2,600,000 for continuing analyses on the American River Watershed Long-Term Study, which recommends authorization of the so-called Folsom Dam Mini-Raise. In the Water Resources Development Act of 1999, Congress directed the Corps of Engineers to study a potential increase in flood storage at the Folsom reservoir. The Corps has completed its review and has concluded that raising the existing dam by 7 feet would provide substantially increased flood control benefits, and is technically feasible, economically justified and environmentally preferable, to other flood control options for the Sacramento region. The Congress has methodically authorized and funded improvements in the Sacramento region to reduce flooding and these efforts should continue without further delay. The Mini-Raise is widely supported by virtually all of the congressional delegation as well as State and local officials and the environmental community. However, the project continues to have narrow but persistent opposition. The Committee believes it is time to provide Sacramento with much needed and deserved flood protection. It is the Committee's understanding that the Chief's report for this project is currently under review. The longer the review drags on, the longer tens of thousands of citizens in the Sacramento, California, region will remain in jeopardy from catastrophic flooding. The Committee directs that this review be expedited such that the project will be eligible for authorization in 2002. The Committee also strongly urges the congressional authorizing committees to authorize the Folsom Mini-Raise in the next Water Resources Development Act. Coast of California, Los Angeles County, CA.--The Committee has provided $400,000 to continue data collection and surveys. Huntington Harbor Dredging, CA.--The Committee recommendation includes $100,000 for a reconnaissance study for ecosystem restoration of Huntington Harbor, CA.

Sacramento and San Joaquin Comprehensive Basin Study, CA.-- The Committee recommendation includes $3,173,000 to complete the feasibility study and to initiate preconstruction engineering and design. Tahoe Basin, CA & NV.--The Committee has included $1,500,000 to continue the comprehensive watershed study of the Lake Tahoe Basin Watershed. Adams County, CO.--The Committee recommendation includes $100,000 for a reconnaissance study for ecosystem restoration study for Adams County, CO. New Savannah Bluff Lock and Dam, GA & SC.--The Committee has provided $276,000 to complete the preconstruction engineering and design phase of the New Savannah Bluff Lock and Dam, GA & SC.

Waikiki Erosion Control, HI.--The Committee has provided $250,000 to continue preconstruction engineering and design for the Waikiki Erosion Control, HI, project. Upper Mississippi & Illinois Navigation Study, IL, IA, MN, MO, & WI.--The Committee recommendation includes $3,685,000 to continue the system feasibility phase of this study to ensure timely completion in fiscal year 2004. The Committee understands that the Corps has submitted an Interim Report in compliance with direction in the fiscal year 2003 Senate Energy and Water Development bill. Columbus Waterfront Development Project, Columbus, IN.--The Committee has provided $100,000 to initiate and complete a reconnaissance study of the Columbus, IN waterfront area. Vincennes Waterfront Development Project, Vincennes, IN.-- The Committee has provided $100,000 to initiate and complete a reconnaissance study of the Vincennes, IN waterfront area. Covington Waterfront Development Project, Covington, KY.-- The Committee has provided $100,000 to initiate and complete a reconnaissance study of the Covington, KY waterfront area. Muddy River, Boston, MA.--The Committee recommendation includes $322,000 to complete the preconstruction engineering and design phase of the flood damage reduction and ecosystem restoration for the Muddy River in Boston and Brookline, MA. Detroit River Environmental Dredging, MI.--The Committee has provided $100,000 to initiate the feasibility study of dredging and disposal requirements of contaminated sediments in the Detroit River.

Montgomery Point Lock and Dam, AR.--The Committee recommendation includes $24,000,000. The Committee understands that this is far less than the Corps capability for this important navigation project that contributes to the Nation's economic security, but in a constrained budget environment, is an increase over the budget amount. Red River Below Denison Dam, AR, LA, OK & TX.--The Committee recommendation includes $5,000,000 to continue the levee rehabilitation and bank stabilization project in Arkansas. Red River Emergency Bank Protection, AR, LA, OK & TX.--The Committee recommendation includes $7,500,000 to continue the project. Harbor/South Bay Water Recycling, CA.--The Committee recommendation includes $7,000,000 to continue construction of the project. Los Angeles Harbor Main Channel Deepening, CA.--The Committee has provided $10,300,000 to continue construction of the channel deepening project. Petaluma River, CA.--The Committee recommendation includes $10,700,000 for completion of this project. San Francisco Bay to Stockton, CA.--The Committee recommendation includes $1,150,000 for continuation of the General Reevaluation Reports on the Avon Turning Basin and for the minimal deepening of the San Francisco Bay to the Port of Stockton. South Sacramento County Streams, CA.--The Committee recommendation includes $7,000,000. The Committee understands that this is far less than the Corps capability for this project that will provide flood protection for more than 100,000 people and 41,000 structures, but in a constrained budget environment, it is a significant increase over the budget amount. Central and Southern Florida, FL.--The Committee recommendation includes $98,202,000 to continue Everglades Restoration projects. This is a $10,000,000 reduction from the budget request. This should in no way be considered any diminution of interest or support for these vitally important ecosystem restoration projects by the Committee. Rather, this cut is due to recent questions raised concerning implementation of the restoration project. The Committee is concerned that the project may be too heavily weighted in favor of commercial development of water supplies rather than the restoration of historic water flow characteristics and water quality needed to save the Everglades. The Committee believes that the Corps should respond to these concerns and provide written notification to the Committee that addresses these concerns. Hawaii Water Management, HI.--The Committee recommendation includes $2,000,000 for continued construction of the Hawaii Water Management Project. Kaumalapau Harbor, HI.--The Committee has provided $2,000,000 for continued construction of the harbor project. Missouri River Fish and Wildlife Mitigation, IA, NE, KS, and MO.--The Committee recommendation includes $1,100,000 above the budget amount for habitat acquisition. Additional funding should be focused on acquisition of lands at the confluence of the Missouri and Mississippi Rivers near St. Louis, MO. Des Plaines River, IL (Phase I).--The Committee recommendation includes $2,500,000 to continue construction of the project. Olmsted Locks and Dam, Ohio River, IL & KY.--The Committee recommendation includes $68,000,000 to continue construction of the replacement navigation structure. This is a $9,000,000 reduction from the budget request, but should in no way be considered any diminution of interest in this critically important portion of the Nation's inland waterway system by the Committee. Rather it reflects the extraordinarily unbalanced nature of the budget request and the Committee's attempt to restore some balance to this account. None of the funds provided for the Olmsted Locks and Dam Project are to be used to reimburse the Claims and Judgement Fund. Kentucky Lock and Dam, Tennessee River, KY.--The Committee recommendation includes $31,000,000. The Committee understands that this is considerably less than the Corps capability for this important navigation project that contributes to the Nation's economic security, but in a constrained budget environment, it is an increase over the budget request. McAlpine Lock and Dam, IN & KY.--The Committee recommendation includes $13,000,000. The Committee understands that this is considerably less than the Corps capability for this important navigation project that contributes to the Nation's economic security, but in a constrained budget environment, it is an increase over the budget request. Inner Harbor Navigation Canal Lock, LA.--The Committee recommendation includes $15,000,000. The Committee understands that this is considerably less than the Corps capability for this important navigation project, but in a constrained budget environment, it is an increase over the budget request. J. Bennett Johnston Waterway, LA.--The Committee recommendation includes $20,000,000 to continue construction of necessary navigation channel refinements, land purchases and development for mitigation of project impacts, and construction of project recreation and appurtenant features. Ouachita River Levees, LA.--The Committee recommendation includes $1,500,000 to continue construction of the project. Southeast Louisiana, LA.--The Committee recommendation includes $55,000,000. While this is a significant increase over the budget request, it is still far below the amount needed to fund the project at an optimum level. Chesapeake Bay Environmental Restoration and Protection, MD, PA, and VA.--The Committee recommendation includes $2,000,000 for continuation of the Taylor's Island Marsh Creation Project, and the Baltimore Harbor Middle Branch Wetland Creation Project. Cumberland, MD.--The Committee has provided $5,000,000 to continue this flood control project. Sault Ste. Marie (Replacement Lock), MI.--The Committee recommendation includes $3,000,000 to continue construction of the replacement lock. Breckenridge, MN.--$3,000,000 is included to continue construction of this vital flood control project. Mississippi Environmental Infrastructure, MS.--The Committee recommendation includes $12,000,000. Within the funds provided the Corps should continue on-going work at Pearlington, Hancock County, MS; Jefferson County, MS; Picayune, Pearl River County, MS; Gulfport, Harrison County, MS and is directed to give priority for initiation of assistance to Helena, Jackson County, MS; Town of Decatur, MS; and City of Newton, MS. Fort Peck Fish Hatchery, MT.--The Committee recommendation includes $8,000,000 for continuation of construction. Rural Montana, MT.--The Committee recommendation includes $3,500,000 to continue the Rural Montana Project. Within the funds provided, the Corps should give consideration to Grant Creek, Missoula County, and the cities of Belgrade, Helena, and Conrad. Stanly County Wastewater, NC.--The Committee has provided $1,000,000 for continued construction of this project. Wilmington Harbor, NC.--The Committee recommendation includes $41,000,000. The Committee understands that this is considerably less than the Corps capability for this important harbor project that contributes to the Nation's economic security, but in a constrained budget environment, it is an increase over the budget request. Devils Lake, ND.--The Committee recommendation includes $5,000,000 for construction of the Devils Lake outlet subject to certain conditions. The Committee also recognizes that the Corps has authority to use up to an additional $10,000,000 of previously appropriated funds for construction if the conditions mandated by Congress are met. Grafton, Park River, ND.--The Committee recommendation has included $1,000,000 to continue construction of this flood control project. Grand Forks, ND.--East Grand Forks, MN.--The Committee recommendation includes $40,000,000. While this is an increase over the budget request, it is still far below the amount needed to fund the project at an optimum level. Antelope Creek, NE.--The Committee recommendation includes $2,000,000 to continue construction of the project. Delaware Main Channel Deepening, NJ, PA, & DE.--The Committee recommendation includes $10,000,000 for construction of this project. However, the Committee has serious concerns about the project due to concerns raised in the General Accounting Office's review of the project's economic analysis. It is the Committee's understanding that the Corps is currently conducting an entirely new economic analysis to address the concerns that were raised in the GAO report and that this analysis will be subject to two independent peer reviews. The Committee believes this is a prudent action, however, until the project is shown to be technically sound, environmentally sustainable, and economically viable, the Committee directs that none of the funds provided should be used to award construction contracts. Further, the Secretary is required to provide written notification to the Committee that these requirements have been met before funds can be used for this purpose. Rural Nevada, NV.--The Committee recommendation includes $13,000,000 to continue the Rural Nevada project. Within the funds provided, the Corps is directed to give consideration to projects at Boulder City, Lyon County (Carson River Regional Water System), Gerlach, Incline Village, Round Hill, Mesquite, Moapa, Spanish Springs, Battle Mountain, Virgin Valley, Lawton- Verdi, and Esmeralda County. Tropicana and Flamingo Washes, NV.--The Committee has provided $45,000,000 to continue construction of the project. The Committee recommendation includes $5,000,000 for reimbursement of work performed by the project non-Federal sponsor in accordance with Section 211 of the Water Resources Development Act of 1996. Holes Creek, West Carrollton, OH.--The Committee recommendation has included $2,000,000 to continue construction of the project. Columbia River Channel Improvements, OR & WA.--The Committee recommendation includes $5,000,000 for continuation of the project. Lower Columbia River Ecosystem Restoration, OR & WA.--In keeping with the Committee's decision to not initiate any construction ``new starts'' in the fiscal year 2003 Committee recommendation, no funding has been provided. Locks and Dams 2, 3 and 4, Monongahela River, PA.--The Committee recommendation includes $42,000,000. The Committee understands that this is considerably less than the Corps capability for this important navigation project that contributes to the Nation's economic security, but in a constrained budget environment, it is an increase over the budget request. Presque Isle Peninsula, PA.--The Committee has provided $1,080,000 for the beach nourishment project at Presque Isle for both annual periodic nourishment and for construction of modifications to the North Pier to facilitate the stockpiling of sand. Charleston Harbor (Deepening/Widening), SC.--The Committee recommendation includes $6,500,000 for continued construction of the project. Myrtle Beach, SC.--The Committee has provided $400,000 for dune restoration work at Surfside Beach/Garden City authorized as a part of the Myrtle Beach Project but not constructed at the time of sand placement due to funding constraints. Cheyenne River Sioux Tribe, Lower Brule Sioux, SD.--The Committee notes that Title VI of the Water Resources Development Act of 1999, as amended, authorizes funding to pay administrative expenses, implementation of terrestrial wildlife plans, activities associated with land transferred or to be transferred, and annual expenses for operating recreational areas. Within the funds provided, the Committee directs that not more than $1,000,000 shall be provided for administrative expenses, and that the Corps is to distribute remaining funds as directed by Title VI to the State of South Dakota, the Cheyenne River Sioux Tribe and Lower Brule Sioux Tribe. Dallas Floodway Extension, Texas.--The Committee has provided $9,744,000 to continue the overall project, including the Cadillac Heights feature, generally in accordance with the Chief of Engineers Report dated December 7, 1999. North Padre Island, Packery Channel, Texas.--The Committee is aware that design and environmental studies have been completed and construction initiated to ensure the project meets provisions of Section 556 of WRDA 99. To that end, the Committee has provided $4,000,000 to continue construction of the project. Red River Basin Chloride Control Project, TX, OK, AR, & LA.--The Committee has provided $2,000,000 to complete the reevaluation effort, initiate plans and specifications, and continue monitoring for the Wichita River Basin portion of the project. Further, the Committee urges budgeting for this critical project that improves Red River water quality in four States. Sandbridge Beach, VA.--The Committee recommendation includes $1,400,000 to continue the project. The Committee is aware of questions concerning property ownership in the project area and directs that the funding provided shall not be used for construction contracts until these questions are resolved and the Committee notified of the resolution. Columbia River Fish Mitigation, WA, OR, and ID.--The Committee recommendation includes $87,000,000 to continue efforts associated with Columbia River Fish Mitigation. This is an $11,000,000 reduction from the budget request, but should in no way be considered any diminution of interest or support for these vitally important mitigation projects by the Committee. Rather it reflects the fiscal constraints with which the Committee is faced with. The Committee recommendation is $6,000,000 above fiscal year 2002 funding enacted for this project. Within the funds provided, the Committee recommendation includes $300,000 for a reconnaissance level investigation of Columbia River flood control operations to determine what changes, if any, would benefit endangered species, particularly salmon. Evaluation beyond the reconnaissance phase is subject to agency review and congressional notification. Mud Mountain Dam, WA.--The Committee has provided $2,500,000 to continue work on dam safety measures and the fish passage facility. Levisa and Tug Forks of the Big Sandy River and Upper Cumberland River, WV, KY, & VA.--The Committee has provided $16,900,000 for continuation of the project. Within the funds provided, the Committee recommendation includes $500,000 for Buchanan County, VA; $500,000 for Dickenson County, VA; and $10,400,000 for Grundy, VA. Further, the Committee recommendation includes $800,000 for Kermit, Lower Mingo County, WV; $3,800,000 for McDowell County, WV; $700,000 for Upper Mingo County, WV; and $200,000 for Wayne County, WV. Aquatic Plant Control Program.--The Committee has provided $5,000,000 for the Aquatic Plant Control Program, the Nation's only Federally authorized research program for technology that focuses on the management of non-indigenous aquatic species. The Committee is aware of the growing problem of invasive plant infestation around the country and supports the Corps' and industries efforts to develop new management and control technologies. The Committee believes that success in management of these invasive species is dependent upon the research and development activities of this program. In an effort to maximize limited funding for eradication and harvesting, the Committee strongly recommends that these efforts be undertaken only where a local sponsor agrees to provide 50 percent of the cost of the work. Within the funds provided, $300,000 is for a cost shared effort with the State of South Carolina and $400,000 is for a cost shared effort with the State of Vermont. Dam Safety and Seepage Stability Correction Program.--The Committee recommendation includes $10,000,000 for the program. Within the funds provided, $5,000,000 is provided for the Corps to continue work on Waterbury Dam in Vermont. Idaho Dam Safety, Idaho.--The Committee encourages the Corps to provide assistance, within the authorities available to it, to the State of Idaho as it evaluates the need for maintenance of these deteriorating structures as well as the need for increased security. Ability to pay.--Section 103(m) of the Water Resources Development Act of 1986, as amended, requires that all project cooperation agreements for flood damage reduction projects, to which non-Federal cost sharing applies, will be subject to the ability of non-Federal sponsors to pay their shares. Congress included this section in the landmark 1986 Act to ensure that as many communities as possible would qualify for Federal flood damage reduction projects, based more on needs and less on financial capabilities. The Secretary published eligibility criteria in 33 CFR 241, which requires a non-Federal sponsor to meet an ability-to-pay test. However, the Committee believes that the Secretary's test is too restrictive and operates to exclude most communities from qualifying for relief under the ability-to-pay provision. For example, 33 CFR 241.4(f) specifies that the test should be structured so that reductions in the level of cost-sharing will be granted in ``only a limited number of cases of severe economic hardship,'' and should depend not only on the economic circumstances within a project area, but also on the conditions of the state in which the project area is located. While within the letter of the law, the Secretary's policies do not appear to be keeping the spirit of the law. The Secretary is directed to report to the Appropriations Committees within 90 days on a proposal intended to be published in the Federal Register to revise 33 CFR 241 eligibility criteria to allow a more reasonable and balanced application of the ability-to pay provision. CONTINUING AUTHORITIES PROGRAM The continuing project authorities listed below, allow the Corps great flexibility to respond to various, limited-scope, water resource problems facing communities throughout the Nation. This program has proven to be remarkably successful in providing a quick response to serious local problems. These problems range from flood control and navigation to bank stabilization and environmental restoration. The Committee has provided funds in excess of the budget request for virtually all of these accounts. As a general rule, once a project has received funds for the initial phases of any of these authorities, the project will continue to be funded as long as it proves to be environmentally sound, technically feasible, and economically justified, as applicable. With this in mind, the Committee has chosen to limit explicit direction of these project authorities. The Committee is aware that there are funding requirements for ongoing, continuing authorities projects that may not be accommodated within the funds provided for each program. It is not the Committee's intent that ongoing projects be terminated. If additional funds are needed to keep ongoing work in any program on schedule, the Committee urges the Corps to reprogram the necessary funds. Aquatic Ecosystem Restoration (Section 206).--The Committee has provided $20,000,000 for the Section 206 Program. Within the amount provided, the recommendation includes: $250,000 for the Arroyo Mocho, Ecosystem Restoration, CA, for the preliminary restoration plan; $185,000 for the Sweetwater Ecosystem Restoration, CA, for the preliminary restoration plan; $100,000 for a preliminary restoration plan and planning and design analysis for the St. Joseph River, South Bend, IN; $400,000 for the Chariton River/Rathbun Lake Watershed, IA, to continue feasibility study and initiate plans and specifications; $114,000 for the Duck Creek-Fairmont Park Wetland Restoration, IA for planning and design analysis; $250,000 for developing the plans and specifications for the Squaw Creek, IL, Ecosystem Restoration project; $285,000 to complete feasibility studies for the Lake Killarney, LA, restoration; $150,000 to complete the feasibility study for the Mill Creek, Littleton Pond, MA, restoration; $161,000 for plans and specifications and construction of the Belle Isle Piers, MI restoration; $100,000 for feasibility studies for controlling Eurasian watermilfoil in Clearwater Lake, MI; $250,000 to conduct a feasibility study of alternatives to control Eurasian watermilfoil in Houghton Lake, MI; $40,000 for the Little Sugar Creek, NC, restoration; $200,000 to prepare a preliminary restoration plan for the West Cary Stream Restoration, NC; $100,000 for the preliminary restoration plan and planning and design analysis for the Mason's Point Dike, NJ; $380,000 for Bottomless Lakes, NM; $233,000 for Jemez River, NM; $1,600,000 to initiate planning, design, and implementation of various restoration projects for Tillamook Bay, OR; $50,000 for the preliminary restoration plan for Roaring Branch, VT; $240,000 to complete plans and specifications and to initiate construction for the Lake Poygan, WI restoration; $140,000 to complete feasibility studies and initiate plans and specifications for the Menomonee River Watershed, WI; and $100,000 to initiate the planning and design analysis for the Trinity Creek, Mequon, WI, restoration. Navigation Projects (Section 107).--The Committee has provided $9,100,000 for the Section 107 Program. Within the amount provided, the recommendation includes: $40,000 to complete the detailed project report for the Oyster Point Marina, CA, project; $300,000 to complete the feasibility study for the Short Cut Canal project in Terrebonne Parish, LA; $125,000 to complete feasibility studies for the Rouge River, MI, navigation project; $100,000 to complete the feasibility study for the Tri State Commerce Park navigation Project in Iuka, MS; and $100,000 to initiate studies for the navigation project at Charlestown Breachway and Ninigret Pond, RI. Tatilik Harbor, Alaska.--Given concerns over the safety and security of port and maritime harbors in the wake of terrorist attacks on the United States, the Committee recognizes the importance of ensuring there is an adequate response in the case of a major oil spill near the Valdez terminal facility in Valdez, Alaska. The Committee also recognizes that nearly 20 percent of the domestic oil supply of the United States flows via tanker from Valdez terminal to the Lower 48 States, and that a terrorist attack on the facility, or a natural or man- made disaster around the terminal could temporarily suspend the flow of Alaska oil to the Lower 48 market. Further the Committee acknowledges that Tatitlik, Alaska is strategically located and designated as the primary alternate response site to stage an oil spill clean up effort if the port of Valdez is inaccessible. To this end, the Committee authorizes and directs the Corps of Engineers to take whatever steps necessary with existing funds authorized and appropriated under section 107 to begin and finalize construction of a small boat harbor at Tatitlik, Alaska. Navigation Mitigation Projects (Section 111).--The Committee has provided $2,000,000 for the Section 111 Program. Within the amount provided, the recommendation includes: $1,220,000 to initiate construction of the Saco River and Camp Ellis Beach, ME project to mitigate shoreline damages caused by the Federal navigation project.

ACCRUALS............................... ------------------------------- TOTAL, OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE.. 1,912,310 1,956,182 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The Committee continues to believe that it is essential to provide adequate resources and attention to operation and maintenance requirements in order to protect the large Federal investment. Yet, current and projected budgetary constraints require the Committee to limit the amount of work that can be accomplished in the fiscal year. In order to cope with the current situation, the Corps has had to defer or delay scheduled maintenance activities. Maintenance backlogs continue to grow, with much of the backlog being essential maintenance dredging needed to keep the Nation's ports, harbors, and waterways open and able to efficiently handle important national and international trade activities. Yet, the Committee is aware that out-year budget planning guidance for the Corps of Engineers projects that the current appropriations for their critical operation and maintenance activities will continue to decline for the foreseeable future. If additional resources are not made available, the Committee will be forced to cut back on services, and begin to terminate and close many projects and activities. The Committee is aware of the Corps' efforts to stretch the limited resources to cover all of its projects and to effect savings through a variety of means. With an increasing number of projects entering the inventory, and budgetary constraints increasing, it is clear that the Corps will have to find innovative ways of accomplishing required maintenance work, while reducing operational and other costs. Adjustments in lower-priority programs and noncritical work should optimize limited resources while maximizing the public benefit. The budget request has proposed that no navigation project with less than one billion ton-miles of cargo be eligible for maintenance dredging. The Committee believes that this is in direct conflict with the way projects are analyzed. Project analysis is based upon Economic and Environmental Principles and Guidelines for Water and Related Land Resources Implementation Studies (1983), the Corps of Engineers Planning Guidance Notebook (2000), and other polices and procedures. For navigation studies, the analysis centers on transportation savings to the Nation considering the ultimate origins and destinations of commodities to be moved. Operation and maintenance costs are considered as a part of this analysis and are figured into the benefit to cost ratio utilized to make the investment decision. By applying an arbitrary ton-mile figure to determine O&M funding decisions, the budget request has essentially obviated the need for any of the previous studies undertaken to determine the investment decision. The Committee is concerned about the annual proposals for reductions of maintenance funding for ``low use waterways and ports''. These tributary waterways naturally do not enjoy the same level of relative efficiencies as mainstem waterways. The Mississippi and Ohio Rivers handle tremendous volumes of traffic over long distances and so generate impressive ton-mile statistics. Tributaries, by nature, provide generally short, smaller channels with lower traffic densities. Consequently, ``ton-mile'' statistics for tributary waterways are dwarfed by statistics for the mainstem waterways. It is important to recognize that the commerce on the tributaries is usually only a small part of the total journey between producer and consumer. When these statistics are compared on a system basis, nearly all of these waterways appear to ``pay their way'' and are performing as the economic analysis indicated when they were originally authorized. Uncertainties in maintenance funding for lower use projects, seriously impact their abilities to compete and become higher use facilities. Without funding to provide a stable channel and authorized depths and widths, industries and shippers are reluctant to make the necessary investments in using these projects. The Committee believes that proposed elimination of maintenance funding for authorized projects is not only a serious disservice to the public, but is demonstrates a profound lack of respect for the congressional oversight committees that have jurisdiction for authorization and deauthorization of such projects. The Committee is not in favor of funding projects that are no longer economically viable or environmentally sustainable however, we believe that they should be proposed for deauthorization through the proper congressional oversight committees. Therefore, the Committee has restored funding to most of the low use waterways and port projects not included in the budget request and encourages the administration to budget accordingly.

REGULATORY PROGRAM Appropriations, 2002.................................... $127,000,000 Budget estimate, 2003................................... 144,252,000 Committee recommendation................................ 144,252,000 An appropriation of $144,252,000 is recommended for the regulatory program of the Corps of Engineers. This appropriation provides for salaries and costs incurred administering regulation of activities affecting U.S. waters, including wetlands, in accordance with the Rivers and Harbors Act of 1899, the Clean Water Act of 1977, and the Marine Protection, Research and Sanctuaries Act of 1972. The appropriation helps maintain program performance, protects important aquatic resources, and supports partnerships with States and local communities through watershed planning efforts. FORMERLY UTILIZED SITES REMEDIAL ACTION PROGRAM Appropriations, 2002.................................... $140,000,000 Budget estimate, 2003................................... 140,298,000 Committee recommendation................................ 140,298,000 The Committee recommends an appropriation of $140,298,000 to continue activities related to the Formerly Utilized Sites Remedial Action Program (FUSRAP) in fiscal year 2003. The responsibility for the cleanup of contaminated sites under the Formerly Utilized Sites Remedial Action Program was transferred to the Army Corps of Engineers in the Fiscal Year 1998 Energy and Water Development Appropriations Act, Public Law 105-62. FUSRAP is not specifically defined by statute. The program was established in 1974 under the broad authority of the Atomic Energy Act and, until fiscal year 1998, funds for the cleanup of contaminated defense sites had been appropriated to the Department of Energy through existing appropriation accounts. In appropriating FUSRAP funds to the Corps of Engineers, the Committee intended to transfer only the responsibility for administration and execution of cleanup activities at eligible sites where remediation had not been completed. It did not intend to transfer ownership of and accountability for real property interests that remain with the Department of Energy. The Corps of Engineers has extensive experience in the cleanup of hazardous, toxic, and radioactive wastes through its work for the Department of Defense and other Federal agencies. The Committee always intended for the Corps' expertise be used in the same manner for the cleanup of contaminated sites under FUSRAP. The Committee expects the Corps to continue programming and budgeting for FUSRAP as part of the Corps of Engineers-- Civil program. The Committee notes that portions of the Iowa Army Ammunition Plant in Middleton, Iowa, has recently been deemed eligible for inclusion into the FUSRAP program. The Committee encourages the Corps to reprogram available FUSRAP funds to initiate work on this site as soon as practicable and to budget for this site in future budget submissions. GENERAL EXPENSES Appropriations, 2002.................................... $153,000,000 Budget estimate, 2003................................... 155,651,000 Committee recommendation................................ 155,651,000 This appropriation finances the expenses of the Office, Chief of Engineers, the Division Offices, and certain research and statistical functions of the Corps of Engineers. Executive direction and management.--The Office of the Chief of Engineers and eight division offices supervise work in 38 district offices. Humphreys Engineer Center Support Activity.--This support center provides administrative services (such as personnel, logistics, informatino management, and finance and accounting) for the Office of the Chief of Engineers and other separate field operating activities. Institute for Water Resources.--This institute performs studies and analyses amd develops planning techniques for the management and development of the Nation's water resources. United States Army Corps of Engineers Finance Center.--This center provides centralizes support for all Corps finance and accounting sites. The Committee has included statutory language for the past several years prohibiting any funds from being used to fund an Office of Congressional Affairs within the executive office of the Chief of Engineers. The Committee believes that an Office of Congressional Affairs for the Civil Works Program would hamper the efficient and effective coordination of issues with the Committee staff and Members of Congress. The Committee believes that the technical knowledge and managerial expertise needed for the Corps headquarters to effectively address Civil Works authorization, appropriation, and Headquarters policy matters resides in the Civil Works organization. Therefore the Committee strongly recommends that the office of Congressional Affairs not be a part of the process by which information on Civil Works projects, programs, and activities is provided to Congress. The Committee reminds the Corps that the General Expenses Account is to be used exclusively for executive oversight and management of the Civil Works Program. The Committee recommends an appropriation of $155,651,000. FLOOD CONTROL AND COASTAL EMERGENCIES Appropriations, 2002.................................................... Recissions.......................................... -$25,000,000 Budget estimate, 2003................................... 20,227,000 Committee recommendation................................ 20,227,000 This account provides funds for preparedness activities for natural and other disasters, response, and emergency flood fighting and rescue operations, hurricane response, and emergency shore protection work. It also provides for emergency supplies of clean water where the source has been contaminated or where adequate supplies of water are needed for consumption. The Committee is aware of the successful testing of the Rapid Deployment Flood Wall at the Engineering Research and Development Center in Vicksburg, Mississippi. This technology has proven to be promising in the effort to fight floods, cost- effective, quick to deploy and successful in protecting property from flood damage, damages which total millions each year. The Committee is aware that the Corps of Engineers intends to revise 33 CFR 203.82 and implement cost-sharing conditions for emergency response and recovery activities funded by the Flood Control and Coastal Emergencies (FCCE) account. Public Law 8499 provides the Secretary of the Army, acting through the Chief of Engineers, with broad discretionary authority to respond to disasters, preserve human life, and protect critical infrastructure. Appropriations to the FCCE account allow the Corps to provide assistance to distressed areas before, during and after natural disasters--events that usually require rapid response and extract heavy tolls on community resources. Under such urgent and extreme circumstances, Federal cost-sharing should not impose delay and unreasonable financial burdens on state and local governments trying to rebuild their communities. The Committee expects the Secretary to administer the FCCE program in accordance with the terms and conditions of Public Law 84-99 in a fair, reasonable and balanced manner, and to inform the Appropriations Committees of any specific cost sharing required in law for the FCCE program and to modify 33 CFR 203.82 accordingly. Further, the Appropriations Committees shall be informed of any Corps of Engineers proposal intended to be published in the Federal Register. GENERAL PROVISIONS--CORPS OF ENGINEERS--CIVIL Language included under Section 101 restates language contained in the Energy and Water Development Appropriations Act, 2000, Public Law 106-60 which places a limit on credits and reimbursements allowable per project and annually. The bill includes language in Section 102 which directs that none of the funds made available in fiscal year 2002 may be used to carry out any activity relating to closure or removal of the St. Georges Bridge across the Intracoastal Waterway, Delaware River to Chesapeake Bay, Delaware and Maryland. Sec. 103. The Committee has included language to make changes to Sec. 595(h)(1) of Public Law 106-53. Sec. 104. The Committee has included language concerning private sector contracting percentages. Sec. 105. The Committee has included language making technical corrections to the St. Paul Harbor, Alaska project. Sec. 106. The Committee has included language making technical corrections to the Abiquiu Dam Emergency gate project. Sec. 107. The Committee has included language concerning relocations credit for the Tropicana Flamingo project. Sec. 108. The Committee has included language concerning rehabilitation of the dredge McFARLAND. The Committee believes that a determination for how the dredge is to be utilized following this rehabilitation should be deferred until after the GAO report requested in Public Law 107-66 has been received and has undergone a thorough review by the appropriate Committees.

Fryingpan-Arkansas Project, CO.--The Committee has provided an additional $200,000 for the reevaluation report. Central Valley Project, CA.--The Committee recommendation provides an additional $30,000,000 for this project for activities in support of the California Bay-Delta Restoration. These activities are more fully described under the heading for the California Bay-Delta Restoration. CVP, Sacramento Division.--The Committee has provided $400,000 above the budget request to continue the Colusa Basin Integrated Resource Management Plan. Lake Tahoe Regional Wetlands Development, California.--The Committee has provided $3,000,000 to continue the environmental restoration projects in the vicinity of Lake Tahoe, California and Nevada. The Bureau of Reclamation is authorized hereafter to negotiate and enter into financial assistance agreements with public and private agencies, organizations, and institutions for activities under the Lake Tahoe Regional Wetlands Development Program. Costs associated with such activities will be non-reimbursable. Animas Las-Plata Project, Colorado.--The bill contains $35,000,000 for the Animas Las-Plata, Colorado Project. The Committee recognizes that with constrained resources it will be difficult to maintain the schedule established by the Colorado Ute Settlement Act Amendments of 2000. Arrowrock Dam, Idaho.--The Committee expects continued and full compliance by the Bureau with Section 206 of Public Law 107-066, with regard to the Valve Rehabilitation Project at the Arrowrock Dam on the Arrowrock Division of the Boise Project in Idaho, for the full period of recovery of expenses prescribed in that Section. Columbia and Snake River Salmon Recovery Project, ID, OR, and WA.--The Committee has provided $500,000 above the budget request for continued fishery habitat improvements in the John Day River Subbasin Project, OR. Lucky Peak, Idaho.--The Committee is aware of the Bureau collecting from water users for NEPA compliance work associated with the Lucky Peak water service contract renewals. The Committee believes that, with respect to these water service contracts, the Bureau of Reclamation should incur these costs as part of its regular activities and shall report to the Committee within 180 days within enactment of this bill on how it intends to address this situation. Halfway Wash, NV.--The Committee recommendation has provided $390,000 to studies of Halfway Wash in Mesquite, County, NV. Middle Rio Grande Project, NM.--The Committee is aware of the pending biological opinion in effect on the Rio Grande. When combined with the drought conditions facing New Mexico, and municipalities, farmers and the silvery minnow all competing for the same scarce resource, water, a delicate balance must be maintained. The recommendation includes funding for the following activities: $5,100,000 for modifications to river habitat; $2,180,000 for silvery minnow population management; $1,100,000 for monitoring of stream effects on the silvery minnow; $130,000 to combat non-native species endangering the silvery minnow; $650,000 for Bureau of Reclamation's repayment obligations under the agreement; $950,000 for water quality studies and improvements; and $2,500,000 for the Bureau of Reclamation's purchase of water. In addition, the Committee directs the Bureau of Reclamation to consult with the Fish and Wildlife Service on silvery minnow monitoring and habitat efforts. Finally, the Committee has included statutory language which requires the Bureau to submit a report on the status and results of fiscal year 2002 funding and, to submit to the Committee for approval, a detailed spending plan for fiscal year 2003 within 60 days of enactment. Middle Rio Grande Levees, New Mexico.--The Committee is very concerned about the state of disrepair of the Middle Rio Grande levees due to the lack of sufficient and regular maintenance within the river bed, including both the levees and the low-flow channel. The Committee has included an additional $10,000,000 to address this problem and expects the Bureau to expedite its work in order to begin the repair of the project in order to address the life and safety issues. Additionally, the Committee expects that the Bureau will take all steps necessary to maintain the project in a responsible manner such that additional levees will not be at risk. Finally the Commissioner is directed to submit an annual report to the Senate Appropriations Committee on the status of the levee repairs. Pecos River Basin Water Supply Salvage Project, New Mexico.--The Committee is aware that the Bureau of Reclamation carries out the Pecos River Basin Water Supply Salvage project in collaboration with the State of New Mexico. The Committee directs the Bureau of Reclamation, within funds appropriated for the Facility Maintenance and Rehabilitation, not to provide less than $500,000 for this eradication effort. Bandon Cranberry Water Control District, Oregon.--The Committee is aware that over the last several years, the Bureau of Reclamation has been working with the Bandon Cranberry Water Control District on several proposals for water storage capacity and reservoir upgrades. The Committee encourages the Bureau of Reclamation to continue its work in an effort to determine the Federal interest in these projects and the needs of the water district. Garrison Diversion Unit, ND.--The Committee recommendation includes $24,000,000. While this is an increase over the budget request, it is still far below the amount needed to fund the project at an optimum level. Klamath Project, OR.--The Committee recommendation includes $19,377,000. The additional funds are for continued construction of the A-Canal fish screen. Mni Wiconi Project, SD.--The Committee has provided $30,772,000 for the Mni Wiconi Project. While this is an increase over the budget request, it is still far below the amount needed to fund the project at an optimal level. Columbia Basin Project, WA.--The Committee recommendation includes $400,000 above the president's request for design documents, plans and specifications for stream habitat restoration along Icicle Creek, WA. Salmon Creek Watershed Restoration Feasibility Study, WA.-- The Committee has provided $250,000 for feasibility studies to improve fisheries habitat in the Salmon Creek Watershed. Title XVI Water Reclamation and Reuse Program.--The Committee recognizes the progress the WateReuse Foundation program has accomplished in providing important research into the science and technological aspects of water reclamation and public health. The Committee is further aware that the Foundation has continued to meet its cost share is requirement as directed. Accordingly, the Committee provides that within funds provided, the Bureau of Reclamation is to provide $2,000,000 to support the WateReuse Foundation in its research activities. A high priority of this research shall be related to aquifer storage and recovery. Within funds provided for the Title XVI Program, the Bureau is directed to undertake feasibility studies of the potential for water reclamation and reuse in North Las Vegas, NV in cooperation with the Southern Nevada Water Authority. Science and Technology, Desalination Research and Development Program.--The Committee recommendation includes $4,000,000 for desalination research and development. Within the funds provided, the Commissioner is directed to assess the potential use of advanced water treatment technologies as a resource to create net new water supplies and to evaluate project benefits, economic values and environmental effects. Further, the Commissioner should identify resource needs that can be met through these technologies and interparty transfers and to identify obstacles to be overcome (physical, financial, institutional, and regulatory). The assessment should include an assessment of life cycle cost effectiveness and validate new technology and practices. Drought Emergency Assistance.--The Committee has provided $5,399,000. Within the funds provided, $3,500,000 is for a regional weather damage modification program and $1,000,000 is for assistance to the State of Montana, now in its fourth year of drought. The Committee is concerned about the impact of the current drought on farmers, municipalities, and other water users. Unfortunately, being that this issue was unanticipated, the President's budget did not contain any significant funds to address drought. Therefore, the Committee expects that the Bureau will utilize its drought emergency assistance program which enables the Bureau to construct temporary facilities and provide assistance in the form of contingency planning for communities in an effort to minimize the impacts of drought. From the funds appropriated for drought emergency assistance, the Committee urges the Bureau to provide full and fair consideration of the request for drought assistance from the State of Hawaii and fund, if meritorious. Water Management and Conservation Program.--The Committee has provided $500,000 above the President's budget for urban water conservation programs within the service area of the Metropolitan Water District of Southern California. Departmental Irrigation Drainage Program.--The Committee has provided $750,000 above the budget request for the Uncompahgre Valley Water Users Association Selenium Remediation Demonstration Project. Nonreimbursability of Security Funding.--Funds made available in Public Law 107-117 for Water and Related Resources to respond to the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks on the United States and sums appropriated under this heading for increased site security/counter-terrorism activity shall be nonreimbursible. BUDGET LIMITATIONS AND REDUCTIONS Constrained spending limits have made it difficult for the Committee to formulate a balanced Energy and Water Development appropriations bill for fiscal year 2003. In order to adhere to the subcommittee's allocations, address the critical ongoing activities, correct program imbalances contained in the President's fiscal year 2003 budget, and respond to the numerous requests of the Members, the Committee finds it necessary to recommend numerous adjustments to funding levels proposed in the budget. Finally, the Committee regrets that many worthwhile projects could not be recommended for funding because of the lack of authorization and the shortfall in resources. The Committee received numerous requests to include project authorizations in the Energy and Water Development appropriations bill. However, in an effort to support and honor the congressional authorizing committees' jurisdiction, the Committee has not included new project authorizations. CENTRAL VALLEY PROJECT RESTORATION FUND Appropriations, 2002.................................... $55,039,000 Budget estimate, 2003................................... 48,904,000 Committee recommendation................................ 48,904,000 The Committee recommends an appropriation of $48,904,000, the same as the budget request for the Central Valley Project Restoration Fund. The Central Valley Project Restoration Fund was authorized in the Central Valley Project Improvement Act, title 34 of Public Law 102-575. This fund was established to provide funding from project beneficiaries for habitat restoration, improvement and acquisition, and other fish and wildlife restoration activities in the Central Valley project area of California. Revenues are derived from payments by project beneficiaries and from donations. Payments from project beneficiaries include several required by the Act (Friant Division surcharges, higher charges on water transferred to non-CVP users, and tiered water prices) and, to the extent required in appropriations acts, additional annual mitigation and restoration payments. CALIFORNIA BAY-DELTA RESTORATION (INCLUDING TRANSFER OF FUNDS) Appropriations, 2002.................................................... Budget estimate, 2003................................... $15,000,000 Committee recommendation................................................ This account funds activities that are consistent with the CALFED Bay-Delta Program, a collaborative effort involving 18 State and Federal Agencies and representatives of California's urban, agricultural, and environmental communities. The goals of the program are to improve fish and wildlife habitat, water supply reliability, and water quality in the San Francisco Bay- San Joaquin River Delta, the principle hub of California's water distribution system. The CALFED Program was established in May 1995, for the purpose of developing a comprehensive, long-term solution to the complex and inter-related problems in the San Francisco Bay-Delta area of California. The program's focus is on the health of the ecosystem and improving water management. In addition, this program addresses the issues of uncertain water supplies, aging levees, and threatened water quality. The Committee is aware that legislation has been introduced in the House and Senate to reauthorize the comprehensive program. Absent this legislation, the Committee has recommended no funding under the California Bay-Delta Ecosystem Restoration Project. In order to support the efforts of the State of California to provide a safe, clean water supply and improve the environment, the Committee has provided funds for previously authorized studies under the Central Valley Project. These studies will support and further the goals of the overall CALFED Program until such time as the California Bay-Delta Ecosystem Restoration Project is reauthorized. The Committee has provided an additional $30,000,000 over the budget request for the Central Valley Project. Additional funds to support the goals of CALFED are provided as follows: CENTRAL VALLEY PROJECT ENVIRONMENTAL WATER ACCOUNT Miscellaneous Project Programs.--$15,000,000 to acquire water and ground water storage. PLANNING AND MANAGEMENT ACTIVITIES Delta Division Oversight.--$2,500,000 to continue coordination, administration, planning, performance tracking and science activities in coordination with CALFED Program Implementation Plan. STORAGE Shasta Division.--$3,000,000 to continue evaluating the potential impacts of the proposed Shasta raise. Delta Division.--$250,000 to continue evaluations of the Delta Wetlands project and other in-delta storage proposals. $2,000,000 for Reclamation to continue participating in planning activities associated with enlarging Los Vaqueros reservoir. Friant Division.--$1,750,000 to continue developing a plan of study for a feasibility level investigation for storage in the Upper San Joaquin Watershed. Sacramento River Division.--$500,000 to continue planning activities as agreed to in the Sites MOU. CONVEYANCE Delta Division.--$5,000,000 to construct the Tracy Test Fish Facility. POLICY AND ADMINISTRATION Appropriations, 2002.................................... $52,968,000 Budget estimate, 2003................................... 54,870,000 Committee recommendation................................ 54,870,000 The Committee recommendation for general administrative expenses is $54,870,000. This is the same as the budget request. The policy and administrative expenses program provides for the executive direction and management of all reclamation activities, as performed by the Commissioner's offices in Washington, DC, Denver, CO, and five regional offices. The Denver office and regional offices charge individual projects or activities for direct beneficial services and related administrative and technical costs. These charges are covered under other appropriations. GENERAL PROVISIONS--DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR Section 201 of the bill includes language that States requirements for purchase or lease of water from the Middle Rio Grande or Carlsbad Projects, New Mexico. Section 202 of the bill includes language concerning Drought Emergency Assistance. Section 203 of the bill includes language concerning natural desert terminal lakes. Section 204 of the bill includes language concerning private sector contracting percentages. Section 205 of the bill includes language directing the Bureau to undertake studies for the North Central Montana Rural Water Supply project using prior appropriated funds. Section 206 of the bill includes language to make changes to Section 8 of Public Law 104-298. Section 207 of the bill includes language regarding the San Luis Unit and the Kesterson Reservoir in California. TITLE III--DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY Title III provides for the Department of Energy's defense and nondefense functions, the power marketing administrations, and the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission. CONTRACTOR TRAVEL The Committee believes that earlier statutory restrictions on contractor travel established new appreciation by contractors for propriety and cost effectiveness in their travel expenditures. For fiscal year 2003, no statutory travel restrictions are included. Nevertheless, the Committee directs the Department to maintain contractor travel summaries adequate for periodic reviews of programmatic relevance and costs of contractor travel. Energy Supply Appropriations, 2002.................................... $666,726,000 Budget estimate, 2003................................... 693,934,000 Committee recommendation................................ 815,306,000 RENEWABLE ENERGY RESOURCES Appropriations, 2002.................................... $396,000,000 Budget estimate, 2003................................... 407,000,000 Committee recommendation................................ 448,062,000 The Committee recommendation provides $448,062,000, for renewable energy resources. The recommendation for Renewable Energy Resources reflects the Committee's strong belief that only a balanced portfolio of production and distribution technologies and strategies will fulfill our Nation's long-term needs and goals for both energy and the environment. For that reason, the Committee recommendation includes substantial investments in renewable energy resources above the Administration's request. The Committee has modified the request for low emission energy technologies, including hydro, renewable, and nuclear, with the view toward post 2010 application of new technologies. As a result, with few exceptions, the Committee recommends basic research that will provide significant improvements over existing technologies. Each year the Energy and Water Development Appropriations Conference Report contains a handful of ``Congressionally- directed activities'' (to use the Department's description). To date, the Renewable Energy Resources Office has funded fifteen of these Congressionally-mandated activities for fiscal year 2002. This is an unacceptable rate at this point in the fiscal year. These activities are not optional and are to be given the same priority as the rest of the fiscal year spending program. The Committee fully expects the Department to address this situation before the Conference Committee completes action on the final funding bill. Although the Renewable Energy Resources Office is currently undergoing a reorganization, it is not yet complete. It is both unwise and impractical to appropriate funds to accounts that may or may not exist at the start of the fiscal year. For that reason, the Committee recommendation appropriates funds generally in accordance with the Administration's fiscal year 2003 budget request. If the reorganization is complete when the Conference Committee convenes, the Committee will consider re- aligning the accounts. Solar energy.--The Committee recommendation for solar energy programs is $95,000,000. This account is broken up into three sub-accounts, each of which is described below. Solar building technology research.--The Committee recommends $12,000,000 to fund solar building technology development, including enhanced support to the zero energy building program. Photovoltaic energy systems.--The Committee recommends $77,000,000 for photovoltaic energy systems. The Committee recommendation includes $3,000,000 for continuation of the Million Solar Roofs program at current year levels and $2,500,000 for the Southeast and Southwest photovoltaic experiments stations. Additionally, the Committee recommends $3,000,000 for the Navajo electrification project. Concentrating solar power.--The Committee recommends $6,000,000 for concentrating solar power. The Department is directed to begin implementation of a program to deploy 1000 MW of new solar capacity supplying the Southwestern United States by the year 2006. Biomass/biofuels--energy systems.--The Committee recommendation includes $100,000,000 for biomass/biofuels energy systems. The final Energy and Water Development Conference Report for fiscal year 2002 combined the power systems and transportation subaccounts to increase the programmatic flexibility available to the Department. Thus far, the Committee is encouraged with the results of this consolidation and has maintained the new program structure. Not less than $27,000,000 shall be used for a competitive solicitation for Biomass Integrated Biorefinery Process Development which shall be funded from within the totals available under the biomass/biofuels energy account. The Department has indicated a desire to end direct support to the Regional Biomass Energy Program (RBEP). The Committee believes that the RBEP has been a successful partnership with the five distinct regions it has served. The Committee recommendation includes $5,000,000 and directs the Department to work with regional governors' organizations to make RBEP even more successful. The Committee recommendation also includes $2,500,000 for the Consortium for Plant Biotechnology Research, a successful consortium of 34 universities and 33 agribusinesses and trade associations. Wind.--The Committee recommendation includes $50,000,000 for wind. The Committee expects the Department to utilize the additional funds to accelerate development and deployment of low wind speed turbines. The Wind Powering America initiative is to be continued at last year's funding level. The Committee continues to recognize the need for a set-aside for small wind programs. Renewable energy production incentive.--The Committee recommendation includes $5,000,000 for the renewable energy production incentive. Renewable program support.--The Committee recommendation includes $6,059,000 for technical analysis and assistance within renewable program support. The Committee recommendation includes $4,000,000 to continue the collaboration and integration of multi-program activities by the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) to develop renewable energy resources and address the electric power needs of the Southwestern United States. NREL will provide expertise through a virtual laboratory or site office in Nevada that enables partnerships among universities, researchers, technology developers, and those interested in deployment. Departmental Energy Management.--The Committee recommendation includes $3,000,000 for departmental energy management. International renewable programs.--The Committee strongly supports the U.S. international joint implementation program funded in this account and recommends $6,500,000 for that purpose. The Committee supports efforts to increase international market opportunities for the export and deployment of advanced clean energy technologies--end-use efficiency, fossil, renewable, and nuclear energy technologies. The Committee is pleased that the Administration has decided to expand its international renewable energy activities. National Renewable Energy Laboratory.--The Committee recommendation includes $6,800,000, for capital equipment and general plant projects at the National Renewable Energy Laboratory. Of this amount, $1,000,000 is provided to reduce the maintenance backlog and $800,000 is for construction. Geothermal.--The Committee recommends $37,000,000 for geothermal technology development, including continued funding (at current year levels) for GeoPowering the West. The Committee is concerned that the Department appears to be cutting funds for these important research efforts prematurely. The decision to cut funds for geothermal technology development flies in the face of the recommendations of the President's Committee of Advisors on Science and Technology (PCAST) made in 1997. The PCAST report recommends an escalation of funding over a short period of time to $50,000,000-$60,000,000. The Committee has provided a substantial increase and expects the Department to use the additional funds, in part, to foster university research and public private partnerships. Hydrogen research.--The Committee strongly supports research and development of hydrogen technology and recognizes it to be a highly promising and cost effective energy carrier. The Committee recommends $45,000,000. The Committee continues to encourage demonstration of a dedicated fleet of vehicles, including buses, powered by hydrogen. Industrial consumption of hydrogen, especially by the petro-chemical and fertilizer communities is large and growing. The rate of petro-chemical hydrogen consumption necessary for gasoline-powered vehicles will accelerate as global reserves of sweet crude oil diminish. The dominant resource for hydrogen production today is natural gas whose reformation into hydrogen and carbon dioxide contributes significantly to atmospheric greenhouse gases. Moreover, natural gas reserves are insufficient to service simultaneously domestic heating and electricity requirements, industrial hydrogen consumption, and future demands by hydrogen powered vehicles and other fuel cell applications that would accompany the future ``Hydrogen Economy.'' Accordingly, the Committee supports investment in exploration of feasible concepts for renewable production of hydrogen with no greenhouse gas emissions and no other waste products by adding $2,000,000 for an engineering study and evaluation of solar-powered thermo-chemical production of hydrogen from water. Hydropower.--The Committee recommends $7,489,000 for hydropower. Renewable Indian energy resources.--The Committee recommendation includes $9,307,000 for Indian renewable energy resource development. The Committee expects these funds to be administered as competitively awarded grants to federally- recognized tribes throughout the United States. Within available funds, the Committee recommendation includes $1,000,000 for the Council of Renewable Energy Resource Tribes (CERT) to provide technical expertise and training of Native Americans in renewable energy resource development and electric generation facilities management. Electric energy systems and storage.--The Committee recommendation includes $75,000,000 for electric energy systems and storage. This program provides funding for transmission reliability, energy storage systems and high temperature superconductivity research and development. The Committee strongly supports the activities of the high temperature superconductor development program, which will revolutionize the way electric power is generated, transmitted and ultimately used by the consumer, and therefore urges the Department of Energy to submit as part of future budgets an independent funding request for HTS research and development, as it does for programs such as wind, solar and geothermal power. The Committee recommendation includes $50,000,000 for high temperature superconductor research and development and $25,000,000 for distributed energy systems. The Committee recommendation includes the budget request of $9,000,000 for the effort jointly led by Oak Ridge National Laboratory and Los Alamos National Laboratory to develop high-performance, low- cost, second-generation, high-temperature superconducting wire. Renewable program direction.--The Committee recommendation includes $16,907,000 for program direction within this account. Use of prior year balances.--The recommendation includes the use of $15,000,000 of prior year funds to be carried over from fiscal year 2002 to offset the fiscal year 2003 funding requirements. The Department may not cut congressionally- directed activities to implement this offset. NUCLEAR ENERGY PROGRAMS Appropriations, 2002.................................... $226,773,000 Budget estimate, 2003................................... 249,798,000 Committee recommendation................................ 324,108,000 The Committee recommendation provides $324,108,000 for nuclear energy. Nuclear energy presently contributes about 21 percent of our nation's electrical power and emits no atmospheric pollutants, although disposal of spent fuel remains a major technical and social challenge. While the Committee supports continued nuclear power research and development activities as part of a balanced approach to meeting our Nation's energy needs, industry and the Department are strongly encouraged to focus their research efforts on a broader array of disposal options, including reprocessing, transmutation, and dry cask storage, all of which reduce or eliminate the need for a geologic repository. The Committee recommendation includes enhanced funding for the advanced accelerator applications program as described below. University reactor fuel assistance and support.--The Committee recommends $19,500,000 for university reactor fuel assistance and support. University nuclear engineering programs and university research reactors represent a fundamental and key capability in supporting our national policy goals in health care, materials science and energy technology. The Committee strongly supports both the University Reactor Fuel Assistance and Support program's efforts to provide fellowships, scholarships, and grants to students enrolled in science and engineering programs at U.S. universities, as well as efforts to provide fuel assistance and reactor upgrade funding for university-owned research reactors. The Committee notes the progress of the Department in carrying out congressional direction to establish and support regional university reactor consortia. Although progress is visible, the Committee remains concerned about the ability of the Nation to respond to the growing demand for trained experts in nuclear science and technology in the face of financial and other challenges affecting engineering programs and research reactor facilities at American universities. The Committee recommendation includes an increase of $3,000,000 over the request to fund additional consortia and strongly encourages the Department to request sufficient funding in future years to fund all meritorious proposals. Nuclear energy plant optimization.--The Committee recommends a total of $5,000,000, an increase of $5,000,000 over the budget request. The Department is encouraged to continue this cost-shared research and development program to improve the reliability, availability, and productivity of existing nuclear power plants. Nuclear Energy Research Initiative.--The Committee recommends a total of $29,000,000, an increase of $4,000,000 over the budget request. The Department's budget request would not allow for any new NERI projects in the coming year. The proposed increase is necessary to continue to grow the scope of the technology and the people for a growing nuclear industry. Nuclear Energy Technologies.--The Committee recommends a total of $48,500,000. The Committee directs the Department to prepare a report by March 31, 2003, regarding how it intends to carry out the results of the Generation IV Roadmap. To further the introduction of advanced reactors, especially those that are not conventional, it is important to establish a process by which research/demonstration reactors can be built and tested in a manner that will allow a regulatory process to focus on the safety of the technologies for which there is not a large regulatory history. It is thus recommended that $1,000,000 be allocated to a joint DOE and NRC development of a licensing process employing ``risk information'' that would be technology neutral for future licensing of advanced reactors that would lead to eventual certification. The Committee supports the Department's efforts to establish the fuels resource and infrastructure ultimately essential to the realization of the President's vision for the future ``Hydrogen Economy.'' Accordingly, the Committee provides an additional $3,000,000 for the purpose of accelerating the engineering evaluation of an integrated sulfur/iodine thermo-chemical water-splitting cycle for coupling with a high temperature nuclear reactor power source. Of the additional $3,000,000, the Committee directs that $1,000,000 be provided to the Research Foundation of the University of Nevada, Las Vegas for the purpose of establishing a public-private partnership to develop and evaluate innovative high temperature heat exchangers. The Committee remains interested in the potential use and application of small modular reactors with attractive characteristics for remote communities that otherwise must rely on shipments of relatively expensive and environmentally undesirable fuels for their electric power. To be acceptable, such a reactor would have to be inherently safe, be relatively cost effective, contain intrinsic design features which would deter sabotage or diversion, require infrequent refuelings, and be largely factory constructed and deliverable to remote sites. The Committee recommendation includes $3,000,000 to begin design work for a plant to demonstrate the viability of such small modular reactors. Radiological facilities management.--The Committee recommendation includes $92,699,000, $9,600,000 above the request, for radiological facilities management. The Committee funding recommendation includes $600,000 in additional funding for the Cyclotron Isotope Research Center. Within available funds the Department is also directed to provide $7,000,000 for hot cell upgrades/establishment of the Bethel Valley Hot Cell Complex; and $5,000,000 for Pu238 production and Np237 storage. Construction projects are funded at the level of the administration's request. Production of Medical Isotopes.--The Committee commends the Department for issuing a request for proposal to dispose of U233 in building 3019 at the Oak Ridge Reservation and to process that material to produce medical isotopes. The Committee's long support of this effort is a matter of record, and the Committee again emphasizes the importance of this project for the treatment of cancer. Initial human trials utilizing thorium-229, which can be derived from the uranium- 233 stored in Building 3019, have yielded tremendously encouraging results which indicate this radio-isotope may be able to effectively treat leukemia and other cancers. The Committee also recognizes that an essential part of this project is the disposition of the U233 at the Oak Ridge Reservation. The Committee, cognizant that 1,800 people in the United States die every month of leukemia, is frustrated that the Department is now 2 years behind schedule on this project and has proposed a schedule that includes unusually long pauses between phases (such as the proposed 6 months between completion of phase I and initiation of phase II). The Committee recommendation makes available $5,000,000 for this project in fiscal year 2003. The Department is directed to fully fund the disposition of U233 and the processing of the material to produce medical isotopes in future years and proceed with this project as swiftly as possible. Fast flux test facility.--The Committee has provided the budget request of $36,100,000 for the FFTF. The Committee expects the Department to move forward quickly on the permanent deactivation of this facility. Advanced fuel cycles program.--The Committee recommendation includes $77,870,000 for the Advanced Fuel Cycle Program of which $18,000,000 is allocated to EBR-II Spent Fuel Treatment. This program subsumes the Advanced Accelerator Applications program and its activities and will focus on the development of advanced fuel cycles, including recycle or reprocessing of spent fuel, and transmutation technologies. The Committee intends the Department to use national laboratory, university and industrial expertise to perform research in advanced nuclear materials recycle technologies, proliferation-resistant nuclear fuels, and transmutation systems, including both reactor- and accelerator-based approaches. The program goals shall include enabling better utilization of uranium resources and minimizing the amount and toxicity of final waste products. The program shall begin pre-conceptual design of an advanced recycle facility for performing research on scalable recycle technologies that are proliferation resistant, economical, and minimize environmental impact. The program shall use international collaborations to provide cost effective use of research funding and expand both university collaborations and domestic industry participation. The University of Nevada Las Vegas shall continue research activities in the area of transmutation science and testing of spallation target technology established under the Advanced Accelerator Applications program. Funding of $4,500,000 is provided for these efforts. The program shall undertake evaluation and may initiate design and development of a fuels and materials testing station using the LANSCE accelerator facility. Finally, the program shall be coordinated with other programs such as Generation IV and Nuclear Power 2010, but shall maintain separate program and financial management. Within the increased funding levels, the Department is directed to continue the advanced accelerator applications program, including funding for the UNLV program at current year levels and the Idaho Accelerator Program at $3,500,000. Additionally, the Department is directed to restore the nuclear energy program funding to current year levels at Argonne National Lab and ANL-West. Left unchecked, the administration's budget cut would dismantle the last remaining nuclear development team in the United States. Such an action is completely inconsistent with the Administration's Nuclear Power 2010 goals. The Committee is pleased that the Department has agreed that the Nuclear Energy Program is an appropriate home for this robust research and development effort. University Consortium for Transmutation Research.--As discussed above, the right mix of treatment and transmutation technologies must be found to reduce the amount of highly-toxic spent nuclear fuel and waste slated to be buried in a geologic repository, and to avoid the need for more repositories. High- energy accelerators could be central to a future strategy to transmute spent nuclear fuel into less toxic, shorter-lived materials. Innovative transmutation technologies promise to be the most cost-effective and proliferation-resistant means of reducing nuclear waste toxicity. Accelerator-based research on transmutation of radioactive waste would also supply facilities for medical diagnostics and therapy and become a national source of large-scale isotope production for radio- pharmaceuticals. The Department of Energy is urged to establish a consortium of U.S. universities to develop accelerator-based technologies for transmutation of radioactive waste. The consortium should include, at a minimum, the University of Nevada-Las Vegas, University of New Mexico, New Mexico State University, Washington State University, Idaho State University, the University of Texas, Texas A&M University, and the University of California at Santa Barbara, Berkeley and Davis. Program direction.--The Committee recommendation includes $23,439,000 for program direction, the amount of the request. ENVIRONMENT, SAFETY, AND HEALTH Appropriations, 2002.................................... $30,500,000 Budget estimate, 2003................................... 29,211,000 Committee recommendation................................ 19,211,000 The Committee recommendation includes $19,211,000 for non- defense environment, safety, and health which includes $13,871,000 for program direction. ENERGY SUPPORT ACTIVITIES Appropriations, 2002.................................... $7,770,000 Budget estimate, 2003................................... 7,925,000 Committee recommendation................................ 6,925,000 Technical information management.--The Committee recommendation for the technical information management program is $1,400,000. Program direction.--The Committee recommendation for program direction is $5,525,000. ENERGY SUPPLY INFRASTRUCTURE Appropriations, 2002.................................................... Budget estimate, 2003................................................... Committee recommendation................................ $17,000,000 The Committee recommendation provides $17,000,000 for energy supply infrastructure. The energy supply infrastructure program provides assistance, technical support, and project funding to specific energy projects. The Committee recommendation includes $5,000,000 for the Upper Lynn Canal power supply project, $5,000,000 to the Swan Lake-Lake Tyee segment of the Southeastern Alaska Intertie System, and $2,000,000 to the Tok to Glenallen transmission project. The Committee recommendation also includes $5,000,000 for the National Center on Energy Management and Building Technologies. Environmental Management (NONDEFENSE) Appropriations, 2002.................................... $236,372,000 Budget estimate, 2003................................... 166,000,000 Committee recommendation................................ 176,000,000 The Committee recommendation provides $176,000,000 for non- defense environmental management. The non-defense environmental management program is responsible for managing and addressing the environmental legacy resulting from nuclear energy and civilian energy research programs, primarily the Office of Science within the Department of Energy. Research and development activities of DOE and predecessor agencies generated waste and other contaminants which pose unique problems, including unprecedented volumes of contaminated soils, water and facilities. The funding requested and provided here supports the Department's goal of cleaning up as many of its contaminated sites as possible by 2006 in a safe and cost- effective manner. Site Closure.--The Committee directs the Department to continue to monitor the groundwater at the Weldon Springs, Missouri, site and to immediately utilize whatever funds may be necessary to completely remediate the site if the results from the on-going monitoring or other studies indicate additional treatment is required. Site completion.--The Committee recommendation provides $67,272,000 for site completion. The Committee recommendation includes an additional $15,000,000 for the Brookhaven National Laboratory; and $1,000,000 in additional funding for the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory. Post 2006 completion.--The Committee recommendation provides $123,887,000. The Committee recommendation includes an additional $3,134,000 for remediation of the Atlas mill tailings site at Moab, Utah; and an additional $3,000,000 for the Energy Technology Engineering Center in California. West Valley.--The Committee recommendation includes an additional $5,000,000 for the West Valley Demonstration Project. The Committee is concerned that the Department and State of New York have not yet entered into an agreement regarding the scope of the clean-up at the site. Excess Facilities.--The Committee recommendation provides $1,841,000 for the transfer of excess facilities at the Brookhaven National Laboratory, Los Alamos National Laboratory, and Oak Ridge from other DOE organizations. Uranium Facilities Maintenance and Remediation Appropriations, 2002.................................... $418,425,000 Budget estimate, 2003................................... 382,154,000 Committee recommendation................................ 471,154,000 Uranium Enrichment Decontamination and Decommissioning.-- The Committee recommendation provides $334,523,000 for the uranium enrichment decontamination and decommissioning fund. The Committee provides a total of $134,048,000, an increase of an additional $34,000,000 for clean-up at the Paducah Gaseous Diffusion Plant to ensure compliance with applicable State and Federal obligations. The Committee directs the Department to fund the Kentucky Consortium for Energy and Environment from within available funds. The Committee recommendation also includes $65,000,000 in additional funding for the East Tennessee Technology Park. Other Uranium Activities.--The Committee recommends $136,631,000. The Committee recommendation includes $10,000,000 in support of preliminary environmental planning, siting studies, and related activities for the Depleted Uranium Hexafluoride (DUF-6) projects at that gaseous diffusion plants at Paducah, Kentucky, and Portsmouth, Ohio, consistent with the direction (ignored for many years by the Department but reiterated legislatively by Congress this year) of Section 1 of Public Law 105-204 (112 Stat. 681) as amended. The Committee recommendation includes uranium program activity funding of $16,381,000 for East Tennessee Technology Park, $19,737,000 for the Paducah Gaseous Diffusion Plant, and $89,714,000 for the Portsmouth Gaseous Diffusion Plant. Nuclear Waste Disposal Fund Appropriations, 2002.................................... $95,000,000 Budget estimate, 2003................................... 209,702,000 Committee recommendation................................ 56,000,000 The Committee recommendation includes $336,000,000 for nuclear waste disposal. Of that amount, $56,000,000 is derived from the nuclear waste fund, and $280,000,000 shall be available from the ``Defense nuclear waste disposal'' account. The Committee has provided $6,000,000 for the State of Nevada and $2,500,000 for affected units of local government in accordance with the statutory restrictions contained in the Nuclear Waste Policy Act. The Committee directs that $2,500,000 from within the amount provided to Defense Nuclear Waste Disposal for Yucca Mountain Site Characterization be provided to the Research Foundation of the University of Nevada, Las Vegas for the purpose of continuing and expanding its efforts in ground water characterization and research into the transport and fate of radionuclides in the vicinity of the proposed Yucca Mountain repository. Science Appropriations, 2002.................................... $3,233,100,000 Budget estimate, 2003................................... 3,279,456,000 Committee recommendation................................ 3,329,456,000 Investment in the physical sciences and engineering plays a critical role in enabling U.S. technological innovation and global economic leadership. It is essential to the development of our energy resources and utilization as well as our defense, environment, communications and information technologies, health and much more. Over the past 50 years, half of U.S. economic growth has come from prior investment in science and technological innovation. Life expectancy has grown from 55 years in 1900 to nearly 80 years today. The Department of Energy is the leading source of Federal investment for R&D facilities and fundamental research in the physical sciences. Yet investment in the Department's R&D has declined in constant dollars from $11,200,000,000 in 1980 to $7,700,000,000 in 2001. As a percentage of GDP, total Federal investment in the physical sciences and engineering has been cut roughly in half since 1970. Shrinking investment in the physical sciences and engineering poses serious risks to DOE's ability to perform its mission. It also threatens the nation's science and technology enterprise. DOE faces a shortage of nearly 40 percent in its technical workforce over the next 5 years. To meet it needs, it must compete for a shrinking pool of skilled workers with industry, many of whose leaders also report serious shortages of scientists and engineers. American educational institutions are failing to attract sufficient numbers of U.S. students, especially women and minorities, into undergraduate and graduate programs in the physical sciences and engineering. For these skills we now are more heavily dependent on foreign nations than ever before. The H1-B visa has become a main element of U.S. technology policy. As fewer foreign students choose to pursue their education in the United States and too few U.S. students enter these fields, our vulnerability grows. NSF reports that between 1996 and 1999, the number of Ph.D.s in science and engineering awarded to foreign students declined by 15 percent. Only 5 percent of U.S. students now earn bachelors degrees in natural science or engineering. Since 1986 the total number of bachelors degrees in engineering is down 15 percent. Between 1994 and 2000, the number of Ph.D.s awarded in physics in the United States declined by 22 percent. These trends must be reversed. Many DOE user facilities do not operate at their designed capacity. As a result, opportunities and momentum are lost as researchers and students encounter barriers to the pursuit of inquiry of national importance, including promising research opportunities at the boundaries of the life sciences, physical sciences, engineering and computer sciences. Future U.S. global leadership and technological leadership will rely upon today's investment in research in all the sciences and engineering. The Committee strongly supports and encourages increased investment in the research and education initiatives of the DOE Office of Science. HIGH ENERGY PHYSICS Appropriations, 2002.................................... $716,100,000 Budget estimate, 2003................................... 724,990,000 Committee recommendation................................ 729,980,000 The Committee recommendation includes $729,980,000 for high energy physics. The Committee has included an additional $5,000,000 for the Stanford Linear Accelerator Center. The Committee recognizes that the High Energy Physics Advisory Panel has recommended that the Next Linear Collider (NLC) at the Stanford Linear Accelerator Center should proceed into design and construction.

BIOLOGICAL AND ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH Appropriations, 2002.................................... $527,405,000 Budget estimate, 2003................................... 504,215,000 Committee recommendation................................ 531,215,000 The Committee recommendation includes $531,215,000 for biological and environmental research. The recommendation includes an additional $10,000,000 above the requested level for the Genomes to Life program and $25,000,000 in total funding for the low dose effects program. The recommendation also continues the free air carbon dioxide experiments at the current year level and $3,000,000 in additional funding for the EMSL computer. The Committee strongly encourages the Department to budget for additional resources for the Genomes to Life Program in fiscal year 2004. This program shows tremendous potential and deserves enhanced support. Environmental Remediation.--The Committee recommendation includes an additional amount of $6,000,000 for a program to evaluate improved technologies for removal of arsenic from municipal water supplies, with a focus on minimization of operating costs and reducing energy requirements. This program shall include peer-reviewed research projects as well as cost- shared demonstration projects conducted with municipal water systems. Demonstration programs shall focus on technologies applicable in the arid southwestern United States. The program shall be administered through contracts with the American Water Works Association Research Foundation, which shall utilize capabilities of WERC, A Consortium for Environmental Education and Technology Development, for evaluations of cost effectiveness of alternative treatment methodologies. BASIC ENERGY SCIENCES Appropriations, 2002.................................... $1,003,705,000 Budget estimate, 2003................................... 1,019,600,000 Committee recommendation................................ 1,044,600,000 The Committee recommendation includes $1,044,600,000. For purposes of reprogramming in fiscal year 2002, the Department may allocate funding among all operating accounts within basic energy sciences upon written notice to the appropriate Congressional Committees. The Committee recommendation includes $12,000,000 for the Department's Experimental Program to Stimulate Competitive Research and $4,500,000 in additional funding to complete preliminary engineering and design (PED) and move to construction at the Center for Integrated Nanotechnology. Within available funds the Committee recommendation includes full funding for the operation of the National Synchrotron Light Source, the Spallation Neutron Source, and the Nanoscale Science Centers Initiative, including $24,000,000 for design and construction of the Center for Nanophase Materials Sciences and Oak Ridge National Laboratory. Construction projects are all funded at the level of the administration's request. The Committee is pleased with the progress of the Department's Nanoscience Initiative. The Committee understands the Department has recently announced its intention to fund a Nanocenter at Brookhaven National Laboratory. The Committee has included $1,000,000 to begin preliminary engineering and design in fiscal year 2003 for the Nanocenter at Brookhaven (Project 02-SC-2). The Committee strongly supports the nanoscale science research centers. Additionally, the Committee recommends that the additional funds be used to support the following important activities: facility operations user support; completion of the Nanoscience Research Center project engineering and design; and additional work in computational sciences in materials and chemistry. Advanced Scientific Computing Research.--The Committee recommendation provides $169,625,000 for advanced scientific computing research. SAFEGUARDS AND SECURITY The Committee recommendation provides $48,127,000 for safeguards and security. SCIENCE PROGRAM DIRECTION The Committee recommendation provides $134,837,000 for science program direction. SCIENCE LABORATORIES FACILITIES SUPPORT The Committee recommends $42,735,000, the amount of the request, for science energy laboratories facilities support. The program supports infrastructure activities at the five national labs under the direction of the Office of Science. FUSION ENERGY SCIENCES Appropriations, 2002.................................... $248,495,000 Budget estimate, 2003................................... 257,310,000 Committee recommendation................................ 259,310,000 The Committee recommendation for fusion energy sciences is $259,310,000, an amount that is $2,000,000 above the budget request. The Committee is aware of significantly increased neutron yields from compressed fuel elements heated by an extremely short pulse, high power laser beam. Such advances promise significant acceleration of the schedule for achieving ignition of compressed fusion pellets. Accordingly, the Committee adds $2,000,000 to Fusion Energy Sciences for the purpose of evaluating this so-called ``fast ignition'' concept. The Department is directed to report back to the Committee no later than August 1, 2003 with the results of this evaluation along with any recommendations the Department would make regarding the schedule and milestones of the High Energy Density Physics Program. Departmental Administration (GROSS) Appropriations, 2002.................................... $210,853,000 Budget estimate, 2003................................... 299,220,000 Committee recommendation................................ 235,000,000 (MISCELLANEOUS REVENUES) Appropriations, 2002.................................... $137,810,000 Budget estimate, 2003................................... 137,524,000 Committee recommendation................................ 137,524,000 The Department recommends $235,000,000 for departmental administration, a net appropriation of $97,476,000. The Committee has been underwhelmed by the timeliness and level of detail in the Department's responses to the Committee's requests for the additional budget information required to evaluate the administration's requests to Congress. The Department needs to focus on providing timely, detailed, and transparent budget information to Congress when making requests for appropriations. International affairs.--The Committee strongly urges the Department of Energy, the Department of Commerce, U.S. AID, and other Federal agencies associated with the Clean Energy Technology Exports Program to finalize and implement the strategic plan and establish the advisory board. The strategic plan is a critical component of a broad range of international and domestic policy interests, including those promoting economic development, energy, trade, employment, environmental, and climate change policies. Inspector General Appropriations, 2002.................................... $32,430,000 Budget estimate, 2003................................... 37,671,000 Committee recommendation................................ 37,671,000 The Committee has provided $37,671,000 for the Office of the Inspector General. RECOMMENDATION SUMMARY Details of the Committee's recommendations are included in the table at the end of this title. ATOMIC ENERGY DEFENSE ACTIVITIES Atomic energy defense activities of the Department of Energy are provided for in two categories--the National Nuclear Security Administration and Other Defense Related Activities. Appropriation accounts under the National Nuclear Security Administration (NNSA) are weapons activities, defense nuclear non-proliferation, naval reactors, and the Office of the Administrator. Other defense related activities include appropriation accounts for defense environmental restoration and waste management, defense facilities closure projects, defense environmental management privatization, other defense activities and defense nuclear waste disposal. National Nuclear Security Administration WEAPONS ACTIVITIES Appropriations, 2002.................................... $5,429,238,000 Budget estimate, 2003................................... 5,867,000,000 Committee recommendation................................ 6,108,959,000 Weapons activities provide for the continuing assurance of safety, reliability, and security of the nuclear weapons in our enduring nuclear weapons stockpile while adhering to the spirit of the Comprehensive Test Ban Treaty. Necessary ingredients for success in this important mission include a highly skilled and motivated workforce, advanced experimental and computational facilities and equipment, adequately capitalized and maintained physical plants and supporting infrastructure, and exceptionally focused and dedicated management. DIRECTED STOCKPILE WORK An appropriation of $1,234,467,000 is recommended for the directed stockpile work of the NNSA. Directed stockpile work encompasses all activities that directly support specific weapons in the nuclear stockpile as directed by the Nuclear Weapons Stockpile Plan. These activities include current maintenance and day-to-day care of the stockpile as well as planned refurbishments as outlined by the stockpile life extension program (SLEP). This category also includes research, development and certification activities in direct support of each weapon system, and long-term future- oriented research and development to solve either current or projected stockpile problems. Stockpile research and development.--The Committee recommends $467,149,000, the same as the budget request. Stockpile R&D provides for assessment, certification, surveillance and maintenance research and development for systems comprising our enduring nuclear weapons stockpile. The additional $118,149,000 above the current year is meant to support acceleration in stockpile life extension research and development activities for the W80 and W76 systems, necessary additional sub-critical experiments at the Nevada Test Site for pit certification, and a vigorous program in advanced concepts research and development. Stockpile maintenance.--The Committee recommends $401,157,000 to provide for stockpile maintenance and production and exchange of limited life components in the enduring stockpile, as well as major refurbishment activities to extend the stockpile life of the W87, W76, W80, and B61 weapons systems. Stockpile evaluation.--The Committee recommends $197,184,000 to support new material laboratory tests, new material flight tests, stockpile laboratory tests, stockpile flight tests, quality evaluations, special testing, and surveillance of weapons systems to support assessment of the safety and reliability of the nuclear weapons stockpile, all of which contributes to the Annual Certification to the President. Dismantlement/disposal.--The Committee recommends $24,378,000. The program includes all activities associated with weapon retirement and disassembly. The slight decrease below current year reflects reduced activity involving the W-56 at Y-12 and contractor efficiencies at Pantex. Production Support.--The Committee recommends $137,706,000. CAMPAIGNS An appropriation of $2,148,210,000 is recommended for the campaigns of the NNSA, an increase of $80,376,000 over the budget request. The stockpile stewardship campaigns program establishes and applies a number of highly focused and integrated scientific and technical capabilities to maintain indefinitely the safety, security, and reliability of the Nation's nuclear weapons stockpile without nuclear testing. The present structure of the campaigns program reflects the current investment in developing advanced facilities and capabilities while simultaneously applying existing and developing capabilities to important stewardship tasks. Primary certification.--The Committee recommends $47,159,000 to support sub-critical experiments and other activities necessary to support the required delivery date for a certified pit. Dynamic materials properties.--The Committee recommends $90,594,000. The Committee commends the administration for its investment in the future through university grants, partnerships and cooperative agreements. Using $5,000,000 of the available funds, the Administration is directed to make full use of existing and developing capabilities for materials properties studies, including the subcritical experiments at the U1a facility, Joint Actinide Shock Physics Experimental Research facility and the Atlas facility at the Nevada Test Site, and the High Pressure Collaborative Access Team facility at the synchrotron light source at Argonne National Laboratory. The Committee understands that this materials work is essential to predicting the safety and reliability of nuclear weapons in the absence of nuclear weapons testing. The Committee recommendation includes $8,110,000 for University Partnerships, a reduction of $5,000,000 from the request. Advanced radiography.--The Committee recommends $82,925,000, an increase of $30,000,000 over the request. The recommendation includes $25,000,000 to continue research, development, and conceptual design activities for an advanced hydrodynamics test facility, including further development and evaluation of proton radiography. It is the intent of the Committee to continue this important effort even though any decision on whether to proceed to construction is still several years away. The additional $5,000,000 is provided to fund other experiments that might be conducted in the Contained Firing Facility, the U1a tunnel complex, or other appropriate experimental facilities. The Committee also directs the Department to fully support the DHART facility, proton radiography, and radiation flow diagnostics. Secondary certification and nuclear systems margins.--The Committee recommends $47,790,000 for radiation source development, radiation case dynamics studies, radiation transport and the effects of aging and refurbishment on secondary performance. From the funds available, the administration is encouraged to continue, and expand as appropriate, its investments in high energy density physics research through university grants, partnerships and cooperative agreements. Enhanced surety.--The Committee recommends $32,000,000, an amount comparable to current year, to develop and demonstrate advanced initiation concepts and enhanced use denial concepts, and to enhance efforts to establish high precision, micro system technologies for enhanced surety of future weapon systems. Weapons systems engineering certification.--The Committee recommends $27,007,000 to accelerate the acquisition of experimental data necessary to validate new models and simulation tools being developed in the Advanced Simulation and Computing Campaign. Nuclear survivability.--The Committee recommends $23,394,000 to develop and validate tools to simulate nuclear environments for survivability assessments and certification; restore the capability to provide nuclear-hardened microelectronics and microsystem components for the enduring stockpile; and accelerate the qualification and certification of the neutron generator and the arming, fusing and firing system for the refurbished W76. ICF ignition and high yield.--The Committee recommends $487,293,000. The Committee recommendation includes $214,045,000 for National Ignition Facility construction, Project 96-D-111, and $273,248,000 is for the ICF ignition and high yield program. The National Ignition Facility (NIF) was originally justified as a way of attracting, training, and evaluating the next generation of nuclear weapons scientists, who would then help maintain the capabilities of our existing nuclear stockpile. The Department of Energy has long maintained that achieving ignition with this multibillion dollar facility was a top priority for the Stockpile Stewardship and Management Program, because the scientific and engineering challenges of achieving ignition with the NIF could be used to induce first- rate scientists to contribute to the nuclear weapons program. It was the ignition objective that determined the original size, performance criteria, and cost of the multibillion dollar NIF construction project, and the ignition objective that has justified continued support by this Committee in spite of large cost overruns and long delays. The Committee is therefore disturbed to see that the NNSA has now changed the title of its campaign from ``Inertial Confinement Fusion Ignition and High Yield'' to ``High Energy Density Physics'', in other words, from a focus on achieving the specific goal of ignition to a generalized physics research program. Ignition is now only one of several objectives for the NIF. The Committee is likewise concerned that the NNSA will downgrade the NIF Project's long-standing ``Functional Requirements and Primary Criteria'' into a set of ``eventual goals'' and adopt new reduced performance criteria for acceptance testing of the NIF beams that are significantly below what is required to support ignition experiments. The possibility of these various changes leaves the Committee with the overall impression that NNSA is not committed to the NIF Project and might down scope the project to the point where laser performance that is needed to evaluate ignition targets would never be realized. And that would raise the question of the appropriate size for the NIF, and its future funding level. This is an alarming prospect, given NIF's estimated project cost of more than $3,500,000,000, and the greater amounts that will eventually be required to operate and maintain the facility for various experiments. At this late stage in the construction project, the Committee has every right to expect that the confidence in achieving the ignition objective should be increasing, not decreasing. The apparent retreat from ignition signified in this budget request raises anew the question of the appropriate size and role of the NIF Project within the overall Stewardship Program, and its future level of funding. The Committee rejects this re-prioritization and down- scoping. Ignition is now and will remain the primary objective for the National Ignition Facility. The Committee fully expects the NIF to meet its original ``Functional Requirements and Primary Criteria'' and to perform at the levels required for ignition and directs the NNSA to maintain the original scope of the project. Additionally, the Committee rejects the proposed name change and expects the fiscal year 2004 request to revert to Inertial Confinement Fusion and High Yield. The Committee is disappointed that the administration, while apparently committed to the construction of the multi- billion dollar National Ignition Facility (NIF), has not requested funds that are essential to the achievement of the ignition goal. Accordingly, the Committee adds $15,000,000 to the administration's request for the NIF Director to support the development of cryogenic targets and essential NIF diagnostics. The Committee, recognizing the ``national'' character of NIF, encourages the participation of appropriate entities of the national technical community in these activities. Petawatt lasers.--Short pulse, petawatt class lasers will significantly increase the capabilities of the administration's high energy density facilities such as the Z-pinch pulsed power facility at Sandia National Laboratories, the Trident Laser at Los Alamos National Laboratory, the Omega Laser at the Laboratory for Laser Energetics of the University of Rochester, and the National Ignition Facility at the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory. The Committee recommendation includes an additional $13,000,000 to realize the benefits of such laser technology. Within this amount, $5,000,000 is provided to modify the beamlet laser at Sandia National Laboratories; $3,000,000 is provided to continue petawatt laser development at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory; $2,000,000 is provided for technical community activities in developing critical short- pulse, high power laser technology, such as damage resistant gratings; and $3,000,000 is provided for petawatt laser development at the Laboratory for Laser Energetics (LLE) at the University of Rochester. This funding will allow the LLE to continue operations of the OMEGA laser at full capacity. The Department should provide a report before December 31, 2002, addressing the need for a new high energy OMEGA-EP (extended performance). The Committee is concerned that the existing facility will be unable to meet national science-based stockpile stewardship requirements in light of the current oversubscription of OMEGA. The Committee also includes an additional $4,500,000 for university grants and other support. Within this amount, $2,000,000 is provided for short pulse, high power laser development at the University of Texas; and $2,500,000 is provided to continue short pulse, high power laser development and research at the University of Nevada, Reno. Advanced simulation and computing.--The Committee recommends $704,335,000, an amount that is $20,527,000 below the budget request. The Committee notes the intriguing development of the Japanese vector-based Earth Simulator Computer which is now several times faster than any current ASCI computer and 33 percent faster than the NNSA's newest platform, the Q machine. The NNSA has put forth a credible case for their decision to abandon custom-designed chips and vector architecture for the much cheaper commodity chip-based, massively parallel, scalar systems which are the foundation of ASCI. However, the Committee is not convinced that the NNSA is aggressively pursuing alternative hardware architectures or software solutions that will result in better interconnection and more efficient use of the NNSA's substantial computer investment. The Committee requires more evidence that the current ASCI approach is the most cost-effective and efficient way of achieving the desired capability and capacity when needed. While the Committee recognizes the central importance of the ASCI program to the success of stockpile stewardship, the Committee remains unconvinced that the NNSA's platform acquisition strategy is driven by identified requirements, rather than a well intentioned, but insufficiently justified, desire to aggressively acquire larger and faster computing assets on an accelerated time-scale. The NNSA procurements represent a very small percentage of the U.S. supercomputing market, and the Committee is not convinced that the NNSA's acquisition strategy is taking full advantage of the steady fall in the price per teraflop that characterizes this market. The NNSA is directed to commission an independent National Academy of Sciences (NAS) report that includes the following elements. First, the report should include an assessment of the alternative computer architectures and the applicability of the requirements of the stockpile stewardship program. In addition to the NNSA, the NAS should consult with the Department's Office of Science and the National Security Agency and include their perspectives as to the appropriate computer architectures necessary to meet the needs of the broader scientific community and other elements of the national security community. Second, the report should identify the distinct requirements of the stockpile stewardship program and its relation to the ASCI acquisition strategy. The report should clearly describe the linkage between the development of software applications and the acquisition of hardware capability and capacity, with the needs of the stockpile life extension programs and the underlying science programs. Finally, the report should include an evaluation of the cost trade-offs between the dates on which specific computing resources are required and reduced future costs for computational power. This report is due to the appropriate congressional committees on May 1, 2002. The Committee recommends the following amounts for ASCI construction projects: Project 01-D-101 Distributed information systems laboratory, SNL, Livermore, CA.--The Committee recommends $13,305,000. Project 00-D-103 Terascale simulation facility, LLNL, Livermore, CA.--The Committee recommends $35,030,000. Project 00-D-107 Joint computational engineering laboratory, SNL, Albuquerque, NM.--The Committee recommends $7,000,000. Pit manufacturing and certification.--The Committee recommendation includes a total of $246,000,000 for the Pit Manufacturing and Certification Campaign, an increase of $51,516,000 over the budget request. This amount includes $242,000,000 to support the manufacturing and certification of a W88 pit as the September, 2001, project baseline indicated. The recommendation also includes the requested amount of $2,000,000 for pit manufacturing capability and $2,000,000 for the modern pit facility. The Committee remains greatly concerned about the NNSA's refusal to request funds consistent with its own project plan submitted less than 1 year ago. Although the Committee acknowledges the NNSA is reporting substantial progress in the effort, the NNSA has not revised its September, 2001, project baseline to reflect a lower and presumably more accurate cost projection. Instead, the Committee has been forced to reduce other items in the budget request to fully fund a program both the Congress and the NNSA have identified as one of the most important tests of the success of the Stockpile Stewardship and Management program. The Committee directs the NNSA to revise as appropriate the pit production and certification plan and submit the report to the relevant congressional committees before the end of the current fiscal year, and annually thereafter. Stockpile readiness campaign.--The Committee recommends $61,027,000 for the stockpile readiness campaign. This program, initiated in fiscal year 2001, enables the Y-12 National Security Complex to replace or restore production capability and to modernize aging facilities. At present, the critical manufacturing capabilities required for weapons refurbishments at Y-12 do not exist. The Committee agrees that ``stockpile readiness campaign'' is a more appropriate and indicative program title than ``secondary readiness campaign''. High explosives manufacturing and weapons assembly/ disassembly readiness.--The Committee recommends $12,093,000 to establish production-scale high explosives manufacturing and qualification; to deploy and validate technologies and facilities for production re-qualification; and, to demonstrate and validate Enterprise Integration and Collaborative Manufacturing. Non-nuclear readiness.--The Committee recommends $22,398,000 to deploy commercial products and processes for components supporting the B61, W80, and W76 stockpile life extension programs; to modify existing tritium loading and cleaning facilities to support stockpile life extension programs; and, to support neutron target loading and detonator production. Tritium readiness.--The Committee recommendation includes $112,899,000 for the tritium readiness campaign, including the budget request of $70,165,000 for construction and $42,734,000 for operations, a reduction of $13,400,000 from the request. The NNSA has acknowledged that the Tritium Extraction Facility construction project has experienced serious cost-overruns and schedule delays. The NNSA has proposed initiating the use of commercial reactors for the irradiation of tritium producing rods in fiscal years 2004 and 2005. This schedule would have required the delivery of fuel in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2003. However, the delays in the construction of the Tritium Extraction Facility and the resulting delays in start of facility operations will necessitate a delay in the commercial light water reactor tritium production program. As such the Committee recommends a reduction of $13,400,000 from the budget request. Cooperative agreements.--The Committee recognizes that cooperative agreements with universities are important resources for developing essential technical data for stockpile stewardship. Additionally, such long-term relationships with universities allow considerable opportunity for promoting advanced studies and recruiting the future workforce in technical areas that are critical to the continuing stewardship enterprise. The Committee understands that the NNSA has established a new office to be responsible for administering university partnerships, cooperative agreements and/or other long-term university relationships. The Committee remains supportive of this activity and directs the administration to honor existing cooperative agreements as this new office implements its responsibilities. READINESS IN TECHNICAL BASE AND FACILITIES An appropriation of $1,849,812,000 is recommended for readiness in technical base and facilities. Readiness in technical base and facilities encompasses efforts to provide for the physical infrastructure and operational readiness required to conduct the directed stockpile work and campaign activities at the laboratories, the test site and the production plants. Operations of facilities.--The Committee recommends $1,026,000,000 to maintain warm standby readiness for all RTBF facilities with some allowance for inflation. Within available funds, $6,000,000 is provided for full single shift operations of Sandia National Laboratories' Z-pinch pulsed power facility, and $56,725,000 is provided for continuing operations of the Device Assembly Facility, the Joint Actinide Shock Physics Experimental Research facility, operations associated with the Atlas relocation project, U1a operations, general plant projects and other NTS support facilities. For continued facility upgrades, refurbishments, operations and maintenance costs associated with and for the National Center for Combating Terrorism, an additional $27,000,000 is provided. The Committee recommendation also includes an additional $10,000,000 for facility operations at Pantex and an additional $10,000,000 for operation of facilities at Y-12. Technology transfer and industrial partnerships.--The Committee recognizes that partnerships with industry may enable the weapons complex to accomplish its mission more efficiently. Such partnership can provide access to new technologies, processes and expertise that improve NNSA's mission capabilities. One of the most successful technology transfer and commercialization efforts in the Department of Energy has occurred with the not-for-profit Technology Ventures Corporation around Sandia National Laboratories, resulting in over 30 start-up ventures and thousands of jobs created. The Committee has included an additional $3,000,000 and directs the NNSA to use this successful public/private partnership at the other interested NNSA laboratories and the Nevada Test Site. Program readiness.--The Committee recommends $218,000,000, an increase of $9,911,000 above the budget request, to enhance readiness and maintain materials processing and component manufacturing readiness. Within available funds $64,201,000 is provided for test site readiness including archiving, resumption planning, activities required for enhanced test readiness planning including test scenarios and cost/benefit trade offs. Funds are also provided for Testing Drillback Borehole management as well as experimental and direct stockpile activities included in DSW and campaigns which contribute to the test readiness posture. Special projects.--The Committee recommendation includes $50,500,000 for special projects. Within available funds, $600,000 is provided as the Federal contribution to the Oral History of the Nevada Test Site; $6,900,000 is provided for the New Mexico Education Enrichment Foundation; $2,500,000 is provided for the National Museum of Nuclear Science and History relocation project; $500,000 for the design, fabrication, and installation of exhibits at the Atomic Testing History Institute; and $1,000,000 is provided for the UNLV Research Foundation, which is integrating the Nevada community reuse organization during fiscal year 2003, for operations in support of stockpile stewardship and homeland security activities at the Nevada Test Site. The Los Alamos County Schools Program is funded at the level of the President's request. As a result of the events of September 11, 2001, which have placed increased demands, and a heightened availability requirement on the aircraft required for Aerial Measurements, Sensing and Monitoring, the Committee is concerned that asset deployed at NNSA facilities at Nellis Air Force Base and Andrews Air Force Base may not be safely deployed due to dated avionics. In order to assure the safety and reliability of these assets under all conditions, the Committee recommends $4,000,000 to update aircraft navigational and other related avionics. The Committee encourages the Administration to support a joint Air Force/NNSA research and development program in physical security systems and technologies at the Sandia National Laboratory. The National Laboratories have long served as test beds for the development and deployment of advanced technologies. The Committee is impressed with laboratory work designed to protect critical U.S. transportation infrastructure and encourages the Department to continue research and deployment in this area. Within available funds, the Department is directed to conduct a field installation of the truck stopping device developed at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory and to build a prototype of a portable, remotely controlled truck stopping device for positive control of trucks in critical areas. The Committee further directs the Department to continue research regarding suspension bridges and new techniques for scanning shipping containers. Material recycle and recovery.--The Committee recommends $98,816,000, the amount of the budget request. Nuclear weapons incident response.--The Committee recommends $96,000,000, to enhance the state of response readiness at various locations, particularly in light of the events of September 11, 2001. The Committee is very pleased with the performance of DOE's Emergency Response assets in the aftermath of September 11, 2001. These emergency response teams have done remarkable work with relatively meager resources. The Department is encouraged to maintain these programs in a robust posture and provides $5,000,000 in additional funding for this purpose. Construction projects.--The Committee recommends an appropriation of $328,182,000, for construction projects under Readiness in Technical Base and Facilities. The following list details changes in appropriations for construction projects under Readiness in Technical Base and Facilities: Project 01-D-108 Microsystems and engineering science applications, SNL.--The Committee recommends $123,000,000, an increase of $48,100,000 above the budget request. Project 03-D-102 LANL administration building (SM-43) replacement project, LANL.--The Committee recommendation includes $16,000,000, an increase of $16,000,000 above the Administration's request. 01-D-103 PED, Various locations, TA-18 relocation at LANL.--As a result of the NNSA's announced preferred option that this equipment and material be transferred to the Device Assembly Facility, the Committee recommends the NNSA suspend planning related to relocation of the facility at Los Alamos and instead utilize previously appropriated funds to support planning consistent with the eventual Record of Decision. The Committee recommends no funding. FACILITIES AND INFRASTRUCTURE The Committee recommends $242,512,000, to support re- capitalization of existing operational facilities to halt their deterioration and restore the robust and enduring mission readiness that relies on them. SECURE TRANSPORTATION ASSET The Committee recommends $152,989,000. Of the amount appropriated, $100,863,000 is provided for operations and equipment, and $52,126,000 is provided for program direction. SAFEGUARDS AND SECURITY The Committee recommends an appropriation of $509,954,000. The Committee recommendation includes $8,900,000 for construction of the nuclear material safeguard and security upgrade project at Los Alamos. The Committee directs the NNSA to continue to improve its ability to build an integrated multiyear budgeting process and eliminate the separate line-item treatment of the security budget in a manner consistent with April 2002 Report of the Commission on Science and Security (``Hamre Commission''). Defense Nuclear Nonproliferation Appropriations, 2002.................................... $803,586,000 Budget estimate, 2003................................... 1,113,630,000 Committee recommendation................................ 1,115,630,000 The Committee recommendation provides $1,115,630,000 for defense nuclear nonproliferation. The fiscal year 2002 Energy and Water Development Appropriations Act provided $861,419,000 for nuclear nonproliferation activities. Since that time, Congress has appropriated an additional $326,000,000 for defense nuclear nonproliferation in supplemental appropriations bills. Unfortunately, a substantial portion of the total appropriated funding for fiscal year 2002 remains unspent and unobligated. These programs of are critical interest to this Committee and to Congress as a whole. However, the Committee is concerned that the rate of expenditure for nonproliferation programs lags substantially behind that of the rest of the National Nuclear Security Administration. Carry-over rates of 40 percent are not uncommon. Although the Committee recognizes the difficulty in implementing nonproliferation activities in Russia, the Committee strongly urges the Department to improve on this level of performance. However, the Committee does not expect the Department to carry out these programs with any less rigorous oversight in ensuring efficient and cost-effective implementation. The securing and safeguarding of fissile nuclear material abroad is a critical component of our Nation's terrorism prevention effort. Defense Nuclear Nonproliferation activities of the NNSA are directed to reducing the serious global danger of the proliferation weapons of mass destruction (WMD). The NNSA utilizes the highly specialized scientific, technical, analytical, and operational capabilities of the NNSA and its national laboratories as well as other Department of Energy laboratories to implement its nonproliferation programs. Its mission is to prevent the spread of WMD materials, technology and expertise; detect the proliferation of WMD worldwide; reverse the proliferation of nuclear weapons capabilities; dispose of surplus materials in accordance with terms set forth in agreements between the United States and Russia; and store surplus fissile materials in a safe and secure manner pending disposition. The Committee continues to strongly support these important national security programs. Nonproliferation and verification research and development.--The Committee recommends $293,407,000. The recommended level continues the important remote sensing and verification technology research, development and deployment, and continues to invest in the development of essential technologies for responding to the growing threat of chemical and biological terrorism. The Nonproliferation and Verification, Research and Development program is essential for stable long-term research and the development of unique science and technology competencies needed for the increasing demands of arms control, nonproliferation, domestic nuclear safeguards and security, energy security, and emergency management. Within available funds, the Committee has provided $15,000,000 to support on-going activities at the Remote Sensing Test and Evaluation Center including sensor test bet development, support for field testing, and deployment of sensors, applied technology activities, the HAZMAT Spill Center, the RSL, and the STL. Within available funds, the Committee recommendation also includes $500,000 for the Remote Sensing Test and Evaluation Center to conduct a site-wide survey of the Iowa Army Ammunition Plant (IAAP) in Middletown, Iowa, for radiological contamination. This study shall be done in conjunction with the Army Corps of Engineers and the State of Iowa. The Committee recommends $2,500,000 in support of the 3-year research effort by the Caucasus Seismic Information Network. The Committee recommendation includes $5,250,000 for the Incorporated Research Institutions for Seismology PASSCAL Instrument Center. The Committee recommendation includes an additional $10,000,000 in support of the nuclear and radiological national security program. The NNSA is directed to provide for the sustained development of advanced technologies needed to counter nuclear terrorism threats and should focus on improving capabilities through research and development in threat assessment and prediction, basic nuclear understanding, sensors and detection systems, consequence mitigation, forensics and attribution and render-safe technologies. Nonproliferation and International Security.--The Committee recommends $92,668,000 for Nonproliferation and International Security. The Department's Nonproliferation and International Security program supports the U.S. arms control and nonproliferation policies, and provides leadership and representation within the Department in the international arms control and nonproliferation community. The goal is to reduce the threat of nuclear proliferation by integrating the Department's assets and efforts, including those of the national laboratories and contractors, to provide technical support to the U.S. Government's foreign policy and national security objectives. The Committee recommendation includes $8,100,000 for continuing the efforts for disposition of spent nuclear fuel in Kazakhstan. The Committee commends the NNSA for engaging the wider US scientific community in contributions to the treaty monitoring program. The Committee will not continue direction that the NNSA compete a specific portion of the treaty monitoring program, but strongly encourages the laboratories to continue to incorporate more industry and academic involvement and to establish metrics that will allow the Committee to track progress in this effort. Russian Transition Initiatives.--The Committee recommends $39,334,000 for Russian Transition Initiatives. The recommendation is meant to continue important activities that counter ``brain drain'' to potential proliferant states and terrorist organizations from the nuclear weapons complex laboratories and production plants of the former Soviet Union. The request includes $16,748,000 for the Nuclear Cities Initiative (NCI), and $22,586,000 for Initiatives for Proliferation Prevention (IPP). International materials protection, control, and accounting.--The recommendation provides $233,077,000 for international material protection, control, and accounting (MPC&A) activities. The Committee continues to consider these activities extremely important to reducing the threat created by the breakup of the former Soviet Union. The increased funding from fiscal year 2002 supplemental appropriations and the fiscal year 2003 recommendation will allow for additional material consolidation and control work, an expanded program of MPC&A at several Russian Navy sites, and expanded MPC&A efforts within defense-related and important civilian and regulatory sites in Russia. In addition, the Committee supports the NNSA pursuing opportunities to work with the Russian Strategic Rocket Forces in securing additional weapon sites. The Committee continues to believe that these activities are critical elements of the United States non- proliferation efforts. Within available funds, the Committee recommendation includes $10,000,000 to accelerate the blend-down of highly enriched uranium. The Administrator of the NNSA is directed to explore new approaches, in addition to the current 500 MT HEU blend-down program, that could increase the rate at which HEU is modified to render it incapable of weapons use in a manner consistent with section 3157 of S. 2514, the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2003. Second Line of Defense.--From within available funds, an additional $10,000,000 is provided for expanded activities within NNSA's Second Line of Defense (SLD) program. This program is responsible for improving border and transportation security against the illicit movement of material used in weapons of mass destruction (WMD). The Committee supports expanded program work in major transit/transportation hubs and ports in countries other than Russia and the Newly Independent States. HEU (Highly Enriched Uranium) Transparency Implementation.--The Committee recommendation includes $17,229,000, the amount of the budget request for the HEU Transparency Implementation program of the Department of Energy. This program is responsible for ensuring that the non- proliferation aspects of the February 1993 agreement between the United States and the Russian Federation are met. This Agreement covers the purchase over 20 years of low enriched uranium [LEU] derived from at least 500 metric tons of HEU removed from dismantled Russian nuclear weapons. Under the Agreement, conversion of the HEU components into LEU is performed in Russian facilities. The purpose of this program is to put into place those measures agreed to by both sides, that permit the United States to have confidence that the Russian side is abiding by the Agreement. International nuclear safety.--The Committee recommends $14,576,000 to implement permanent improvements in Russian nuclear safety culture as well as improvements in the regulatory framework for Soviet-design reactor operations in nine former Soviet Union countries. Elimination of weapons-grade plutonium production.--The Committee recommendation includes $49,339,000 for the elimination of weapons-grade plutonium production program. The Committee supports the administrations request to transfer the Elimination of Weapons-Grade Plutonium program (EWGPP) from the Department of Defense to the NNSA. However the Committee is concerned with the inherent complexity, and the concomitant problems of cost increases and schedule slippage, when working in the Russian weapons complex closed cities. The Committee directs the department to provide a report by December 31, 2002, detailing the proposed program plan, including cost, schedule, and project milestones that can be used to track program progress. Fissile materials disposition.--The Committee recommends $448,000,000, to maintain operations in the United States and in Russia according to the plan under the budget request. Excess weapons grade plutonium in Russia is a clear and present danger to the security of the United States because of the possibility that it will fall into the hands of non-Russian entities or provide Russia with the ability to rebuild its nuclear arsenal at a rate the United States may be unable to equal. For that reason, the Committee considers the Department's material disposition program of comparable importance to weapons activities; both are integral components of our national effort to reduce any threat posed to the United States and to deter the threat that remains. The Committee recommendation includes $194,000,000 for U.S. surplus materials disposition, the same as the budget request. The Committee urges the Department to continue the thorium- based fuel cycle program currently being conducted by the Russian Research Initiative in conjunction with their U.S. industrial partners. Construction.-- Project 99-D-141 Pit Disassembly & Conversion Facility.-- The Committee recommends $33,000,000, the same as the budget request. Project 99-D-143 Mixed Oxide (MOX) Fuel Fabrication Facility.--The Committee recommends $93,000,000, the same as the budget request. Project 01-D-407 Highly Enriched Uranium (HEU) Blend Down Project.--The Committee recommends $30,000,000, the same as the budget request. Naval Reactors Appropriations, 2002.................................... $688,045,000 Budget estimate, 2003................................... 706,790,000 Committee recommendation................................ 706,790,000 The Naval Reactors Program within the NNSA provides for the design, development, testing, and evaluation of improved naval nuclear propulsion plants and reactor cores having long fuel life, high reliability, improved performances, and simplified operating and maintenance requirements. The nuclear propulsion plants and cores cover a wide range of configurations and power ratings suitable for installation in naval combat vessels varying in size from small submarines to large surface ships. The Committee recommendation is $706,790,000, the amount of the budget request. OFFICE OF THE ADMINISTRATOR Appropriations, 2002.................................... $312,596,000 Budget estimate, 2003................................... 335,929,000 Committee recommendation................................ 335,929,000 The Committee has included $335,929,000 for the expenses of the Office of the Administrator of the National Nuclear Security Administration (NNSA). The NNSA is taking the long-overdue steps necessary to re- engineer the entire nuclear weapons complex to reflect new national security realities. In the field, the Operations Offices are being converted to Service Centers and the 8 Site Offices are being given greater authority over the contractors. The NNSA has announced its first major Headquarters re- engineering to consolidate management and oversight. When fully implemented, the layers of Federal Headquarters management will be reduced. The Committee recognizes that there will be increased cost for permanent change of station associated with re-deploying existing staff. The committee expects the NNSA to aggressively pursue these efforts without negatively impacting critical national security missions. The National Nuclear Security Administration Act and subsequent Appropriations Acts have included requirements or direction to develop and implement a planning, programming, and budgeting system. The Committee directs the Department conduct an independent assessment of the NNSA's PPBS process and structure, including its comparability to that of the Department of Defense. The review should also determine whether the NNSA's PPBS is capable of being used as the central decision making process for resource allocation decisions and the extent to which it has been incorporated by NNSA M&O contractors. RECOMMENDATION SUMMARIES Details of the Committee's recommendations are included in the table at the end of this title. OTHER DEFENSE RELATED ACTIVITIES Defense Environmental Restoration and Waste Management Appropriations, 2002.................................... $5,234,576,000 Budget estimate, 2003................................... 4,544,133,000 Committee recommendation................................ 5,406,532,000 The Committee recommends an appropriation of $5,406,532,000 for Defense Environmental Restoration and Waste Management programs for fiscal year 2003. This is $862,399,000 over the budget request. The Department's environmental management program is responsible for identifying and reducing health and safety risks, and managing waste at sites where the Department carried out defense nuclear energy or weapons research and production activities which resulted in radioactive, hazardous, and mixed waste contamination. The environmental management program goals are to eliminate and manage the urgent risk in the system; emphasize health and safety for workers and the public; establish a system that increases managerial and financial control; and establish a stronger partnership between DOE and its stakeholders. The ``Defense environmental restoration and waste management'' appropriation is organized into two program accounts, site/project completion and post-2006 completion to reflect the emphasis on project completion and site closures. ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT CLEAN-UP REFORM The Department's top-to-bottom review of the Environmental Management Program concluded that cleaning up the legacy of the Cold War is costing billions more than it should and will take many years longer than anticipated to complete. The Department's position, correct in the view of the Committee, is that the status quo is unacceptable. The Department, during the last year, has embarked on a mission to quickly and markedly improve the program's performance in achieving clean-up and closure, and ensure that the primary goal is reducing risk to workers, the public, and the environment. In the fiscal year 2003 budget submittal, the Department recommended the creation of an $800,000,000 clean-up reform account in an attempt to lure sites and States into re- negotiating binding agreements to accelerate clean-ups throughout the DOE complex. In a relatively flat budget request, this pot of money was created by cutting fiscal year 2003 funding levels at nearly every DOE clean-up site. The Department wanted the $800,000,000 to be completely unallocated by Congress as an incentive to bring States and sites to the bargaining table quickly rather than risk not receiving any of the funding. The general unfairness and inequity of such a tactic is not lost on the Committee. This approach seems to have worked because the Department has entered into negotiations with the vast majority of the sites in the complex. There was no shortage of States or sites willing to line up to accept additional funding now in exchange for, at best, a vague promise to complete work on their clean- up years ahead of schedule. The Committee remains skeptical that the addition of a relatively small increase in funds today at, for example, Hanford, will result in a savings of 35 years and $40,000,000,000-$50,000,000,000. The Department has utilized this ``more money now, great savings later'' strategy in a number of other areas, with limited success to date. However, the Committee is in full agreement that the current situation is untenable. Of greater concern to the Committee is the fact that the budget tally for the re-negotiated agreements totals approximately $1,100,000,000, a figure that the Department has, since early in this year's budget process, treated as if it was the actual budget request. It is completely unacceptable for the Department to enter into binding legal agreements with States when it is clear there is no money in the budget request to fully fund the final agreements. This behavior is in no way mitigated by the submittal of a budget amendment weeks after the Committee had issued 302(b) allocations to each of the Subcommittees. The result of such a cynical action is to force the Committee into making one of two equally unappealing choices: (1) Forego funding for critically important nuclear non- proliferation and nuclear weapons stockpile programs, including the pit manufacturing and certification program that is the cornerstone of science-based stockpile stewardship; or (2) allow the Department to renege on agreements with States, due to insufficient funding, mere months after entering into them. The Committee reluctantly chooses the former approach if only because this administration has already proved far too eager to trample on the rights of the States if it serves its interests to do so. This administration has also shown no greater long-term commitment to fulfilling legally binding clean-up agreements with States than its immediate predecessors. The Committee recommendation does not include a separate clean-up reform account. The Committee is unwilling to provide a completely unallocated $1,100,000,000 to the Department. Rather, the recommendation appropriates funds to each of the affected sites in accordance with the State agreements and in the existing clean-up appropriation accounts. The fact that the (less than timely) $300,000,000 budget amendment arrived with less detail about the uses and sites for the dollars than was contained in the public affairs press releases trumpeting each new State agreement, provides the Committee with no confidence whatsoever that the Department is planning to fulfill each individual clean-up commitment. The complete lack of detailed information from the Department to Congress concerning the specific tasks to be performed with $1,100,000,000 of the taxpayers money is as shocking as it is arrogant. Given the lack of adequate budget justification material for each of the sites, the Committee is compelled to withdraw the internal reprogramming authority that has traditionally been provided to the Assistant Secretary for Environmental Management. Any proposed reprogramming shifts between accounts and sites of all Environmental Management funds, both current and prior years, available to the Department during fiscal year 2003, must be submitted to the appropriate House and Senate Committees for approval. In conclusion, the Committee reiterates its support for the Department's efforts to expedite the clean-up of the legacy of the Cold War in an efficient and effective manner. To the extent that the clean-up reform initiative has improved the legally binding agreements between the Department and the States, the Committee is pleased. However, once these agreements are in place, the Committee expects the annual budget submission from this and future administrations to fully fund the Federal portion of each of these agreements. If not, the balances will be made up from the Environmental Management Program Direction and Departmental Administration accounts. The Committee expects the Department to continue to seek every opportunity to bring about more efficiencies and tough businesslike approaches to program execution. The Department should continue the critical review concerning the need and requirement for each individual support service contract, and duplicative and overlapping organizational arrangements and functions. SITE AND PROJECT COMPLETION An appropriation of $981,350,000 is recommended for site and project completion activities, including $973,106,000 for operation and maintenance, and $8,244,000 for construction. This account will provide funding for projects that will be completed by fiscal year 2006 at sites or facilities where a DOE mission (for example, environmental management, nuclear weapons stockpile stewardship, or scientific research) will continue beyond 2006. These activities are focused on completing projects by 2006 and distinguishes these projects from the long-term projects or activities at the sites, such as high level waste vitrification or the Department's other enduring missions. The largest amount of funding requested is for activities at the Hanford, WA, Savannah River, SC, and Idaho sites. A significant amount of work is expected to be completed at these sites by 2006, although environmental management and other stewardship activities will continue beyond 2006. For construction, the Committee recommendation includes all requested projects. The Committee recommendation includes additional funding above the level of the administration's request for the following activities: $40,000,000 to accelerate cleanup at Savannah River Site in South Carolina; $5,000,000 for cleanup activities at Idaho National Engineering and Environmental Laboratory in Idaho; $141,000,000 for accelerated cleanup at the Hanford site in Washington; $8,000,000 to accelerate cleanup activities at Sandia National Lab in New Mexico; and $5,000,000 for accelerated cleanup at the Pantex site in Texas. The Committee provides $1,000,000 to the State of Oregon to cover costs of its clean-up effort, including emergency drills, planning activities, technical review of DOE's waste management and clean-up plans, participation in the Hanford Advisory Board meetings and other meetings at Hanford. The Committee recommendation includes an additional $1,500,000 for the Savannah River Ecology Laboratory and recommends that the Department continue its relationship with the University of South Carolina's Center for Water Resources at current year levels. The Committee understands the Department is prepared to transfer up to 2,000 acres for the use of Pueblo of San Ildefonso and approximately 100 acres to the County of Los Alamos. The Committee recommendation includes an additional $4,000,000 to expedite the remediation and conveyance of the land consistent with the direction of section 632 of Public Law 105-119. POST-2006 COMPLETION The Committee recommendation for post-2006 completion activities is $3,353,098,000, which includes $2,211,240,000 in operating expenses for post-2006 completion, $455,256,000 in operating expenses for the Office of River Protection, and $671,732,000 for ORP construction. The Post-2006 completion request supports projects that are projected to continue well beyond 2006. As cleanup is completed, it will be necessary for environmental management to maintain a presence at most sites to monitor, maintain, and provide information on the continued residual contamination. These activities are required to ensure the reduction in risk to human health is maintained. Post-2006 construction.--The Committee recommends the amount of the administration's request. Post-2006 operation and maintenance.--The Committee recommendation includes additional funding above the level of the administration's request for the following activities: $229,000,000 for vitrification plant work at the Office of River Protection in Washington; $176,000,000 to accelerate cleanup and nuclear materials stabilization at Savannah River Site in South Carolina; $105,000,000 for cleanup activities at Idaho National Engineering and Environmental Laboratory in Idaho; $63,000,000 for accelerated cleanup of the River Corridor and tank waste management at the Hanford site in Washington; $54,000,000 to accelerate remediation, waste management, and nuclear materials stewardship activities at Los Alamos National Lab in New Mexico; $40,000,000 for accelerated cleanup at the Oak Ridge National Lab and Oak Ridge Reservation in Tennessee; $33,000,000 for accelerated cleanup at the Nevada Test Site in Nevada; $22,000,000 for accelerated cleanup at the Lawrence Livermore National Lab; and $2,000,000 for cleanup activities in Alaska. The Department is expected to continue making PILT payments to counties that have the Hanford reservation within their boundaries at last year's level. Within available funds, the Committee also directs the Department to fund the Hazardous Waste Worker Training Program and the HAMMER programs at levels consistent with fiscal year 2001 levels. The Department is directed to pay its Title V air permitting fees at the INEEL consistent with prior year levels. Last year the Committee encouraged the Department to utilize alternative dispute resolution to resolve the Pit 9 issue currently in Federal court. The Committee is aware the district court has ordered the parties to enter into mediation. The Committee commends that initiative and encourages the pursuit of the action to avert continued costly and protracted litigation. The Committee expects the Department to participate directly in that mediation, not through the M&O contractor. If mediation is not successful, the Committee expects the Department to initiate and participate in arbitration to resolve this dispute. Carlsbad Field Office.--The recommendation includes an additional $14,000,000 for Carlsbad to accelerate shipping and disposing of transuranic waste around the complex; an additional $5,000,000 to continue the U.S. Mexico Border Health Commission/Materials Corridor Partnership Initiative. The recommendation also includes an additional $3,500,000 which shall be made available to the Carlsbad community for educational support, infrastructure improvements, and related initiatives to address the impacts of accelerated operations. In order to provide more timely information in a useable format to citizens, researchers, stakeholders and regulators, the Committee directs the Department to consolidate at Carlsbad all record archives relevant to the operations of WIPP and the TRU waste in the repository. SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY The Committee recommendation includes $77,000,000 for science and technology, $15,000,000 below the administration's request. The Committee notes that the administration's request is a cut of nearly $164,000,000 from the current year. The Science and Technology Program provides new or improved technologies and research results that reduce risks to workers, the public and the environment; reduce cleanup costs; and/or provide solutions to environmental problems that currently have no solutions. New and improved technologies have the potential to reduce environmental restoration and cleanup costs by an estimated several billion dollars. The Committee is aware of the Department's plan to ``re- focus'' the Science and Technology Program and to discontinue all focus area activities, all technology applications activities, as well as other university and industry programs under this account. This recommendation is a result of the Department of Energy's recent Top-to-Bottom Review of the Environmental Management program. The Committee disagrees with this decision and is skeptical that a robust Science and Technology program can be maintained given the $164,000,000 cut. Long-term investment in research and development is the single most important thing the Department can do to ensure that clean-ups are completed quickly and efficiently. The solutions to many of the technical problems facing clean-up sites throughout the DOE complex have not yet been invented. Sharp cuts to science and technology are not the answer and the Committee hopes the Department will reconsider for fiscal year 2004. Within available funds, the Committee provides $7,000,000 for the Western Environmental Technology Office; $3,150,000 to conduct advanced conceptual design of the Subsurface Geosciences Laboratory; $6,000,000 for the Subsurface Science Research Institute (operated by the Inland Northwest Research Alliance and INEEL; $5,000,000 for the National Spent Nuclear Fuel Program; $6,000,000 for the Diagnostic Instrumentation and Analysis Laboratory; $3,000,000 to continue micro-sensing technology development and prototype development and prototype deployment for the Underground Test Area; and $4,350,000 for the University Research Programs in Robotics. An additional $5,000,000 is provided to establish the Critical Infrastructure Testbed at INEEL to implement the recommendations of the Energy Infrastructure Assurance Task Force. Within available funds, the Committee provides additional funding of $7,500,000 to INEEL for the research and development of technologies to address environmental challenges. The Committee urges the Department to continue its previous commitment to seek alternative cost-effective technologies from outside the Department in cleaning up legacy waste. The Committee is aware that the international agreement with AEA Technology has been successful in accomplishing this vital task and urges the Department to expand use of this Agreement. The Committee recommendation includes $3,000,000 for basic science experiments requiring the specialized underground environment of the Waste Isolation Pilot Plant, including continuation of evaluation of the mass of the neutrino through study of double beta decay of xenon-136 as initiated in fiscal year 2002. The Committee recommends close coordination between the Office of Science and the Assistant Secretary for Environmental Management to assure that basic science studies at WIPP do not interfere with the TRU waste responsibilities of WIPP. The Committee also notes with concern that funds provided to initiate this work in fiscal year 2002 were not released by the Department until well into that fiscal year, seriously jeopardizing progress, and directs that funds be promptly released in fiscal year 2003. The Committee agrees with DOE testimony that proven innovative technology should be deployed in clean-up operations as quickly as possible. As in previous years, the Committee continues to support proving out the advanced vitrification technology, which holds the potential to significantly lower clean-up costs and future appropriation requirements. The advanced vitrification system also represents technology and innovation which have been invented, developed, and produced in the United States and should be a national security priority for government-funded nuclear waste management programs. Therefore, the Committee directs the Department, from within available funds, to develop the vitrification-in-the- final-disposal-container AVS system in accordance with the work plan. Finally, the Department is directed to renew its cooperative agreement with the University of Nevada-Las Vegas through its Research Foundation. EXCESS FACILITIES The Committee recommendation for excess facilities is $1,300,000, which is the same as the budget request. These funds are provided to manage the transfer for the final disposition of excess contaminated physical facilities leading to significant risk and cost reductions. In fiscal year 2003 these funds are to be used for the transfer of excess facilities at the Pantex Plant, Savannah River Site, and the Y- 12 Plant from other DOE organizations. MULTI-SITE The Committee recommendation includes $479,871,000 for multi-site activities. This program account supports management and oversight for various crosscutting Environmental Management and Department initiatives, including the program's contribution to the Uranium Enrichment Decontamination and Decommissioning Fund. Within available funds, the Committee provides $14,000,000 for the National Energy Technology Laboratory to support the implementation of an integrated program for closing small DOE clean-up sites and to serve as the DOE field service center for the long-term stewardship of former DOE sites in the eastern United States. The Committee further directs that no action shall be taken to diminish the fiscal year 2002 Environmental Management employee levels at NETL in any was as the laboratory's workload transitions from the science and technology program. The Department shall continue its support of WERC, the Consortium for Environmental Education and Technology Development, at current year levels consistent with its contractual obligations and shall extend the Tribal Colleges Initiative grant, involving Crownpoint Institute of Technology, Dine College, Southwestern Indian Polytechnic Institute, to develop high-quality environmental programs at tribal colleges. Within available funds, the Committee provides additional funding of $7,500,000 to INEEL for the research and development of technologies to address environmental challenges. SAFEGUARDS AND SECURITY The Committee recommendation for safeguards and security is $228,260,000, the same as the budget request. PROGRAM DIRECTION The Committee recommendation for program direction totals $324,000,000, which is the same as the budget request. Program direction provides the overall direction and administrative support for the environmental management programs of the Department of Energy. The Assistant Secretary shall provide a report to the relevant House and Senate Appropriations Committees by November 1, 2002, detailing the reassignment of all the Senior Executive Service (SES) employees paid in fiscal year 2001 and fiscal year 2002 from the Environmental Management program direction account. The report should name all reassigned Federal managers, their title and position at the beginning of the calendar year 2001, date of reassignment, title and position as of September 30, 2002, rationale for reassignment, and the unique capabilities or experience the individual brings to the reassignment position. Defense Facility Closure Projects Appropriations, 2002.................................... $1,092,878,000 Budget estimate, 2003................................... 1,091,314,000 Committee recommendation................................ 1,125,314,000 The Committee recommends an appropriation of $1,125,314,000 for the site closure program, an increase of $34,000,000 over the request. The ``Site closure'' account includes funding for sites where the environmental management program has established a goal of completing the cleanup mission by the end of fiscal year 2006. After the cleanup mission is complete at a site, no further DOE mission is envisioned, except for limited long-term surveillance and maintenance. This account provides funding to cleanup the Rocky Flats, Fernald, Mound, Ashtabula, and Columbus sites. The Committee recommendation includes additional funding above the administration's request to maintain the 2006 closure goal at the following sites in Ohio: $25,000,000 for Fernald; $4,000,000 for the Mound site; $5,000,000 for the Columbus Environmental Management Project. Defense Environmental Management Privatization Appropriations, 2002.................................... $153,537,000 Budget estimate, 2003................................... 158,399,000 Committee recommendation................................ 158,339,000 An appropriation of $158,339,000 is recommended for the environmental management privatization initiative. RECOMMENDATION SUMMARIES Details of the Committee's recommendations are included in the table at the end of this title. Other Defense Activities Appropriations, 2002.................................... $544,044,000 Budget estimate, 2003................................... 468,664,000 Committee recommendation................................ 537,664,000 ENERGY SECURITY AND ASSURANCE The Committee recommendation for energy security and assurance is $56,686,000. This program supports the national security of the United States by working to protect the Nation against severe energy supply disruptions by working with the private sector and the National Infrastructure Simulation and Analysis Center (NISAC) to provide technical response support during an emergency. The Committee recommendation includes $5,000,000 for a pilot project in Washington, DC, to be carried out in conjunction with the local power provider and the Washington Metropolitan Council of Governments, to protect and harden electricity infrastructure in the Nation's Capital, an area uniquely susceptible to terrorist attack. The Committee recommendation includes a total of $30,000,000 in support of the National Infrastructure Simulation and Analysis Center. This funding will enable the continuation of work authorized in the USA Patriot Act to develop sophisticated models and simulation capabilities for critical infrastructures. The additional resources are to be available for additional operations, construction of general plant projects and acquisition of equipment to support the center. The Committee recommendation also includes $16,000,000 for the National Energy Technology Laboratory to assist the Office of Energy Assurance in support of research and development to monitor and protect the physical assets of the U.S. energy infrastructure, including power plants, pipelines, transmissions lines, gaseous and liquid fuel storage, and depots, processing plants, and refineries. The Committee strongly urges the Department, when conducting critical infrastructure assessments, use entities with a proven global information technology infrastructure, and with experience in cyber security and energy information management. INTELLIGENCE The Committee recommendation totals $41,246,000 for intelligence. The Office of Intelligence provides information and technical analysis on international arms proliferation, foreign nuclear programs, and other energy-related matters to policymakers in the NNSA, the Department and other U.S. Government agencies. The focus of the Department's intelligence analysis and reporting is on emerging proliferant nations, nuclear technology transfers, foreign nuclear materials production, and proliferation implications of the breakup of the former Soviet Union. SECURITY The Committee recommendation for security and emergency operations is $185,515,000. Nuclear Safeguards.--The Committee recommendation provides $91,102,000 for nuclear safeguards. Security Investigations.--The Committee recommendation provides $45,870,000, the amount of the budget request. Program Direction.--The Committee recommendation provides $48,543,000 for program direction. Coordination with local communities.--The Committee recognizes the unique emergency response role carried out by local governments adjacent to Departmental facilities and directs the Department to use available resources to improve local government emergency response capabilities through better communications and stronger coordination of training and response activities. INDEPENDENT OVERSIGHT AND PERFORMANCE ASSURANCE The Committee recommendation provides $22,430,000 for independent oversight and performance assurance, the amount of the budget request. The independent oversight and performance assurance program provides independent evaluation and oversight of safeguards, security, emergency management and cyber security for the Department at the Secretary's direction. COUNTERINTELLIGENCE An appropriation of $45,955,000, the amount of the request, is provided for the counterintelligence activities of the Department of Energy. The Counterintelligence program has the mission of enhancing the protection of sensitive technologies, information, and expertise against foreign intelligence, industrial intelligence, and terrorist attempts to acquire nuclear weapons information or advanced technologies from the National Laboratories. ENVIRONMENT, SAFETY AND HEALTH The Committee recommendation provided $114,041,000 for Environmental, Safety and Health activities including $17,149,000 for program direction. The mission of the Office of Environmental, Safety and Health is to protect the health and safety of Department of Energy workers, the public, and the environment and is to be the Department's independent advocate for safety, health and the environment. The Committee recommendation includes $5,000,000 to continue the DOE worker records digitization project through the Research Foundation at the University of Nevada-Las Vegas. The Committee continues to be concerned that the Department has failed to recognize the importance of automating records management processes and continues to encumber extraordinary costs by employing labor intensive procedures in support of these requirements. Though the Committee recommended a Department-wide standardization of processes to ensure data preservation and access, the Committee is not aware of a comprehensive coordinated effort being undertaken within the Department. The Committee is also aware that even within the Environment Safety & Health organization, parallel activities were undertaken to digitize worker records while another part of the organization sought the digitization of similar worker records to support the Employee Compensation Initiative. To the extent that there is a desire to digitize records in support of the ECI, the Committee strongly encourages the Department to utilize the existing program at UNLV. The Committee is concerned that the Department is waivering in its commitment to medical screening and health studies of current and former workers. Many of these medical screenings are required by law. The Committee expects the Department to expend $60,000,000, a slight increase above the current year rather than the $7,000,000 cut proposed by the Administration, on health studies. The Committee recommends $5,200,000, an increase of $4,150,000 above the request, for medical monitoring at the gaseous diffusion plants at Paducah, Kentucky, Portsmouth, Ohio, and Oak Ridge, Tennessee. This will fully fund, as required by law, the worker screening program for both current and former workers. The Committee strongly supports and requires the continued use of helical low-dose CAT scanning for early lung cancer detection in workers with elevated risks of lung cancer. Such tests may detect lung cancers at an early stage even when they are not visible with conventional x-rays. The program in place at the gaseous diffusion plants is successfully identifying early lung cancers at a stage when they are treatable and can be expected to dramatically increase survival rates. The recommendation also includes $1,000,000 for health studies at the Iowa Army Ammunition Plant. The Committee directs the Department to initiate a beryllium screening and outreach program for those workers employed at vendors in the Worcester, Massachusetts, area who supplied beryllium to the Atomic Energy Commission for use in the nuclear weapons program. The DOE is directed expedite the screening program by using one of the DOE's existing former worker medical screening program providers. The Committee recommends $250,000 for this program. Energy Employees Compensation Initiative.--The Committee recommendation includes $16,000,000, the amount of the request, for the Energy Employees Compensation Initiative. Title 36 of the National Defense Authorization Act of 2001 (Public Law 106- 398) established the Energy Employees Occupational Illness Compensation Program to provide benefits to DOE contractor workers made ill as a result of exposures from nuclear weapons production. The Department is responsible for establishing procedures to assist workers in filing compensation claims. The Committee understands that a proposed final rule implementing Part D of the Energy Employees Occupational Illness Compensation Program is currently under review within the Administration. Any final rule implementing Part D should prohibit contractor challenges, specify that a majority determination of the Physicians' Panel is sufficient, and rely on the independent judgment of a physicians' panel with respect to burden of proof and medical causation. WORKER AND COMMUNITY TRANSITION The Committee has provided an appropriation of $25,683,000 for these activities for fiscal year 2003. This is the same as the budget request. The Worker and Community Transition budget provides funding for activities associated with enhanced benefits beyond those required by contract, existing company policy or collective bargaining agreements at defense nuclear facilities. The goals of the program are to mitigate the impacts on workers and communities from contractor work force restructuring, and to assist community planning for all site conversions, while managing the transition to the reduced work force that will better meet ongoing mission requirements through the application of best business practices. NATIONAL SECURITY PROGRAMS ADMINISTRATIVE SUPPORT The Committee recommendation includes $50,587,000 for national security programs administrative support. This fund pays for departmental services that are provided in support of the National Nuclear Security Administration. OFFICE OF HEARINGS AND APPEALS An appropriation of $2,933,000 is recommended for the Office of Hearings and Appeals. The Office of Hearings and Appeals conduct all of the Department's adjudicative process and provides various administrative remedies as may be required. The goal is to promote successful and uninterrupted DOE operations through the deliberate, expeditious and equitable resolution of all claims of adverse impact emanating from the operations of the Department. Defense Nuclear Waste Disposal Appropriations, 2002.................................... $280,000,000 Budget estimate, 2003................................... 315,000,000 Committee recommendation................................ 280,000,000 The Committee recommends $280,000,000 for defense nuclear waste disposal. RECOMMENDATION SUMMARIES Details of the Committee's recommendations are included in the table at the end of this title. Power Marketing Administrations Public Law 95-91 transferred to the Department of Energy the power marketing functions under section 5 of the Flood Control Act of 1944 and all other functions of the Department of the Interior with respect to the Bonneville Power Administration, Southeastern Power Administration, Southwestern Power Administration, and the power marketing functions of the Bureau of Reclamation, now included in the Western Area Power Administration. All power marketing administrations except Bonneville are funded annually with appropriations, and related receipts are deposited in the Treasury. Bonneville operations are self- financed under authority of Public Law 93-454, the Federal Columbia River Transmission System Act of 1974, which authorizes Bonneville to use its revenues to finance operating costs, maintenance and capital construction, and sell bonds to the Treasury if necessary to finance any remaining capital program requirements. Purchase power and wheeling.--The Committee is recommending the elimination of the phase out by the end of fiscal year 2004 of the use of receipts by the Southeastern Power Administration, the Southwestern Power Administration, and the Western Area Power Administration for purchase power and wheeling. This approach was originally proposed in the Administration's fiscal year 2001 budget request and endorsed in the Energy and Water Development Appropriations Act, Fiscal Year 2002 (Public Law 106-377). In recognition of the Western energy crisis during the previous year, the Committee did not adhere to the Public Law 106-377 limitations on purchase power and wheeling in fiscal year 2002, with the largest increase being for the Western Area Power Administration. The budget request for fiscal year 2003 proposed resuming the phase-out of purchase power and wheeling along the schedule contained in Public Law 106-377. However, the Committee finds that there is no compelling reason to continue the phase out of purchase power and wheeling, particularly since this activity is budget neutral. The Committee recommendation for fiscal year 2003 maintains purchase power and wheeling activities at the fiscal year 2002 level. The Committee will continue to establish ceilings on the use of receipts for purchase power and wheeling, and also establish the amount of offsetting collections. BONNEVILLE POWER ADMINISTRATION FUND The Bonneville Power Administration (BPA) is the Federal electric power marketing agency in the Pacific Northwest, a 300,000-square-mile service area that encompasses Oregon, Washington, Idaho, western Montana, and small portions of adjacent Western States in the Columbia River drainage basin. Bonneville markets hydroelectric power from 31 Corps of Engineers and Bureau of Reclamation projects, as well as thermal energy from non-Federal generating facilities in the region. Bonneville also markets and exchanges surplus electric power interregionally over the Pacific Northwest-Pacific Southwest Intertie with California, and in Canada over interconnections with utilities in British Columbia. Bonneville constructs, operates, and maintains the Nation's largest high-voltage transmission system, consisting of over 15,000 circuit-miles of transmission line and 324 substations with an installed capacity of 21,500 megawatts. BPA is the largest power wholesaler in the northwest and provides about 46 percent of the region's electric energy supply and about three- fourths of the region's electric power transmission capacity. Public Law 93-454, the Federal Columbia River Transmission System Act of 1974, placed Bonneville on a self-financed basis. With the passage in 1980 of Public Law 96-501, the Pacific Northwest Electric Power Planning and Conservation Act, Bonneville's responsibilities were expanded to include meeting the net firm load growth of the region, investing in cost- effective, regionwide energy conservation, and acquiring generating resources to meet these requirements. Borrowing Authority.--Bonneville Power Administration presently has available $3,750,000,000 in permanent borrowing authority, authorized by the Transmission System Act (Public Law 93-454). For fiscal year 2003, the Committee recommendation includes an estimate of use of $630,800,000 of authorized borrowing authority, the same as the budget request and $256,300,000 more than fiscal year 2002. This borrowing authority is available for capital investments in power systems (including fish and wildlife measures), transmission systems, and capital equipment. Bonneville forecasts that it will fully utilize its remaining borrowing authority during fiscal year 2004. The Administration has submitted a legislative proposal to increase the current Bonneville borrowing authority by $700,000,000, for a new total borrowing authority of $4,450,000,000. The Committee recommendation does not include this additional borrowing authority at this time because the matter is presently committed to the House-Senate conference on energy legislation. Limitation on direct loans.--The Committee recommends that no new direct loans be made in fiscal year 2002. Budget revisions and notification.--The Committee expects Bonneville to adhere to the borrowing authority estimates recommended by the Congress and promptly inform the Committee of any exceptional circumstances which would necessitate the need for Bonneville to obligate borrowing authority in excess of such amounts. The Committee recommendation includes $34,463,000 for purchase power and wheeling activities, the same as the current year and consistent with the terms described above. OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE, SOUTHEASTERN POWER ADMINISTRATION Appropriations, 2002.................................... $4,891,000 Budget estimate, 2003................................... 4,534,000 Committee recommendation................................ 4,534,000 The Southeastern Power Administration markets hydroelectric power produced at Corps of Engineers projects in 11 Southeastern States. There are 23 projects now in operation with an installed capacity of 3,092 megawatts. Southeastern does not own or operate any transmission facilities and carries out its marketing program by utilizing the existing transmission systems of the power utilities in the area. This is accomplished through transmission arrangements between Southeastern and each of the area utilities with transmission lines connected to the projects. The utility agrees to deliver specified amounts of Federal power to customers of the Government, and Southeastern agrees to compensate the utility for the wheeling service performed. OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE, SOUTHWESTERN POWER ADMINISTRATION Appropriations, 2002.................................... $28,038,000 Budget estimate, 2003................................... 27,378,000 Committee recommendation................................ 27,378,000 The Southwestern Power Administration is the marketing agent for the power generated at Corps of Engineers' hydroelectric plants in the six-State area of Kansas, Oklahoma, Texas, Missouri, Arkansas, and Louisiana with a total installed capacity of 2,158 megawatts. It operates and maintains some 1,380 miles of transmission lines, 24 generating projects, and 24 substations, and sells its power at wholesale primarily to publicly and cooperatively owned electric distribution utilities. The Committee recommendation includes $2,200,000 for purchase power and wheeling activities, the same as the current year and consistent with the terms described above. CONSTRUCTION, REHABILITATION, OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE WESTERN AREA POWER ADMINISTRATION Appropriations, 2002.................................... $171,938,000 Budget estimate, 2003................................... 162,758,000 Committee recommendation................................ 168,858,000 The Western Area Power Administration is responsible for marketing electric power generated by the Bureau of Reclamation, the Corps of Engineers, and the International Boundary and Water Commission which operate hydropower generating plants in 15 Central and Western States encompassing a 1.3-million-square-mile geographic area. Western is also responsible for the operation and maintenance of almost 17,000 miles of high-voltage transmission lines with 258 substations. Western distributes power generated by 55 plants with a maximum operating capacity of 10,576 megawatts. Western, through its power marketing program, must secure revenues sufficient to meet the annual costs of operation and maintenance of the generating and transmission facilities, purchased power, wheeling, and other expenses, in order to repay all of the power investment with interest, and to repay that portion of the Government's irrigation and other nonpower investments which are beyond the water users' repayment capability. Under the Colorado River Basin power marketing fund, which encompasses the Colorado River Basin, Fort Peck, and Colorado River storage facilities, all operation and maintenance and power marketing expenses are financed from revenues. Of the total resources available to the Western Power Administration, $6,100,000 shall be transferred to the Utah Reclamation Mitigation and Conservation Commission. The Committee recommendation includes $186,124,000 for purchase power and wheeling activities, the same as the current year and consistent with the terms described above. FALCON AND AMISTAD OPERATING AND MAINTENANCE FUND Creation of the Falcon and Amistad operating and maintenance fund was directed by the Foreign Relations Authorization Act, fiscal years 1994-95. This legislation also directed that the fund be administered by the Administrator of the Western Area Power Administration for use by the Commissioner of the United States Section of the International Boundary and Water Commission to defray operation, maintenance, and emergency costs for the hydroelectric facilities at the Falcon and Amistad Dams in Texas. The Committee recommendation is $2,734,000, the same as the budget request. RECOMMENDATION SUMMARIES Details of the Committee's recommendations are included in the table at the end of this title.

The recommendation includes several provisions which have been included in previous Energy and Water Development Appropriations Acts and new provisions as follows: Language under section 301 prohibits the use of funds to award, amend or modify a contract in a manner that deviates from the Federal Acquisition Regulations unless on a case-by- case basis, a waiver is granted by the Secretary of Energy. Similar language was contained in last year's Energy and Water Development Act, Public Law 107-66. Language is included under section 302 which prohibits the use of funds in this Act to develop or implement a workforce restructuring plan or enhanced severance payments and other benefits for Federal employees of the Department of Energy under section 3161 of the National Defense Authorization Act of Fiscal Year 1993, Public Law 484. A similar provision was contained in the Energy and Water Development Act, 2002, Public Law 107-66. Language is included under section 303 which prohibits the use of funds for severance payments under the worker and community transition program. Language is included under section 304 which prohibits the use of funds in this Act to initiate requests for proposals or expression of interest for new programs which have not yet been presented to Congress in the annual budget submission, and which have not yet been approved and funded by Congress. A similar provision was contained in the Energy and Water Development Act, 2002, Public Law 107-66. Language is included under section 305 which permits the transfer and merger of unexpended balances of prior appropriations with appropriation accounts established in this bill. A similar provision was contained in the Energy and Water Development Act, 2002, Public Law 107-66. Language is included under section 306 which provides that none of the funds in this Act may be used to dispose of transuranic waste in the Waste Isolation Pilot Plant which contains concentrations of plutonium in excess of 20 percent by weight for the aggregate of any material category on the date of enactment of this Act, or generated after such date. A similar provision was contained in the Energy and Water Development Act, 2002, Public Law 107-66. Language is included under section 307 which provides that the Administrator of the National Nuclear Security Administration may authorize 2 percent of the amount allocated to a nuclear weapons production plant for the production plant to engage in research, development, and demonstration activities with respect to the Engineering and manufacturing capabilities of the plant in order to maintain and enhance such capabilities at the plant. A similar provision was contained in the Energy and Water Development Act, 2002, Public Law 107-66. Language is included under section 308 which provides that the Administrator of the National Nuclear Security Administration may authorize 2 percent of the amount allocated for national security operations at the Nevada Test Site for investment in innovative research, development, and demonstration activities with respect to the development, test, and evaluation capabilities necessary for operations and readiness of the Nevada Test Site. TITLE IV--INDEPENDENT AGENCIES Appalachian Regional Commission Appropriations, 2002.................................... $71,290,000 Budget estimate, 2003................................... 66,290,000 Committee recommendation................................ 74,400,000 The Appalachian Regional Commission (ARC) is a regional economic development agency established in 1965. It is composed of the Governors of the 13 Appalachian States and a Federal cochairman who is appointed by the President. The Committee recommendation for the Appalachian Regional Commission totals $74,400,000, $8,000,000 more than the request. The Committee recommendation includes $8,000,000 for the newly authorized telecommunications program within the ARC. This program will broaden the availability of advanced telecommunications services throughout Appalachia. Consistent with the administration's budget request, the Committee recommendation does not include funding for ARC highways. Funding for ARC development highways is provided through the highway trust fund in fiscal years 1999 through 2004 consistent with provision contained in the Intermodal Surface Transportation Efficiency Act. The Committee recognizes the importance of trade and investment opportunities to the Appalachian region, and is encouraged by a preliminary trade report determining that Appalachian firms might find significant trade and investment opportunities, particularly in the energy, high technology, and transportation sectors, in the Republic of Turkey and the surrounding region. In this regard, the Committee supports the Appalachian-Turkish Trade Project (ATTP), a project to promote opportunities to expand trade, encourage business interests, stimulate foreign studies, and to build a lasting and mutually meaningful relationship between the Appalachian States and the Republic of Turkey, as well as the neighboring regions, such as Greece. The Committee commends the ARC for its leadership role in helping to implement the mission of the ATTP. The Committee expects the ARC to continue to be a prominent ATTP sponsor. Defense Nuclear Facilities Safety Board SALARIES AND EXPENSES Appropriations, 2002.................................... $18,500,000 Budget estimate, 2003................................... 19,000,000 Committee recommendation................................ 19,000,000 An appropriation of $19,000,000, the amount of the request, is recommended for fiscal year 2003. This is the same as the budget request. The Defense Nuclear Facilities Safety Board was created by the Fiscal Year 1989 National Defense Authorization Act. The Board, composed of five members appointed by the President, provides advice and recommendations to the Secretary of Energy regarding public health and safety issues at the Department's defense nuclear facilities. The Board is also responsible for investigating any event or practice at a defense nuclear facility which has or may adversely affect public health and safety. The Board is responsible for reviewing and evaluating the content and implementation of the standards relating to the design, construction, operation, and decommissioning of defense nuclear facilities of the Department of Energy. Delta Regional Authority Appropriations, 2002.................................... $10,000,000 Budget estimate, 2003................................... 10,000,000 Committee recommendation................................ 15,000,000 The Delta Regional Authority (DRA), authorized by Public Law 106-554, was established to assist an eight-state, 236- county region of demonstrated distress in obtaining transportation and basic public infrastructure, skills training, and opportunities for economic development essential to strong local economies. The Committee recommends an appropriation of $15,000,000 for the Delta Regional Authority. The recommended appropriations will be used to carry out the activities of Authority during fiscal year 2003. Denali Commission Appropriations, 2002.................................... $38,000,000 Budget estimate, 2003................................... 29,939,000 Committee recommendation................................ 50,000,000 The Denali Commission is a regional economic development agency established in 1998 for the intended purpose of delivering basic utilities, including affordable power, and other essential infrastructure to the nation's most geographically isolated communities. The Committee is encouraged by the progress of the Denali Commission in assisting distressed communities throughout Alaska, and urges continued work among local and State agencies, non-profit organizations and other participants in meeting the most pressing infrastructure needs. The Committee recommendation includes $50,000,000 for the Denali Commission. From within those funds, $5,000,000 shall be made available for basic infrastructure and facilities for those communities without running water including Red Devil and Kaktovik; $10,000,000 for community facilities that can serve multiple purposes in villages such as Anaktuvuk Pass, Atqasuk, Brevig Mission, Elim, Gambell, Koyuk, Savoonga, St. Michael, Stebbins, Teller, Unalakleet, and Barrow. None of the funds may be used for clean-up of leaking fuel tanks. The Committee recommendation also includes funding for the Pt. MacKenzie gas line extension, Nome power upgrades, Fire Island power upgrade, North Slope grid upgrade, Calista power generation, and the Parks Highway electric line extension. The Committee recommendation includes up to $1,000,000 to study the rural development opportunities, costs and logistics of shipping and marketing new domestic water supplies outside of Alaska. Nuclear Regulatory Commission salaries and expenses gross appropriation Appropriations, 2002.................................... $516,900,000 Budget estimate, 2003................................... 578,184,000 Committee recommendation................................ 578,184,000 revenues Appropriations, 2002.................................... $473,520,000 Budget estimate, 2003................................... 492,545,000 Committee recommendation................................ 520,087,000 net appropriation Appropriations, 2002.................................... $79,380,000 Budget estimate, 2003................................... 85,639,000 Committee recommendation................................ 58,097,000 The Committee recommendation includes $578,174,000, the same amount as the request, for the Commission. Nuclear energy received a strong endorsement in the National Energy Policy of May 2001 and serious industry interest has emerged in building a new generation of nuclear power plants in the United States to meet the Nation's electricity demands. Three nuclear utilities have announced intentions to submit early site permit applications to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC). Others are also expected to submit early site permit applications over the next few years. Industry has proposed a new risk-informed regulatory framework to license the next generation of plants. The framework would build on the successful structure of the revised reactor oversight process and be reactor design neutral. NRC should evaluate the merits of this approach and establish the new framework through rulemaking. Because the NRC needs to ensure that its regulatory infrastructure can be responsive to these new applications, some of which may involve new technologies not previously licensed by the NRC, the Committee provided $10,000,000 in additional budget authority to the NRC for fiscal year 2002 so that it can adequately prepare for and respond to these new reactor initiatives without jeopardizing the safety of operating facilities and without impeding ongoing initiatives on license renewals, power uprates, and moving toward a more risk-informed regulatory environment. While the Committee expects the NRC to continue to support these important national initiatives in fiscal year 2003, funds for maintaining these programs should be realized through implementing internal efficiencies in the NRC. Recognizing the impact of September 11 on NRC's safeguards mission, an additional $36,000,000 was added to the NRC budget authority for fiscal year 2002. The Committee recognizes that these funds were used to strengthen the NRC's ability to respond to terrorist threats and to assess and enhance security requirements at nuclear facilities. The Committee understand that work is well underway with orders issued to all operating and decommissioned commercial nuclear energy plants. Looking to fiscal year 2003, the focus of security will begin to shift from strengthening security regulations and the response capability of the NRC to the implementation of required enhancements by the licensee. The Committee expects that the funds for oversight of these licensee programs should be realized through implementing internal efficiencies in the NRC. The Committee recommendation for the NRC is $578,184,000. This amount is offset by estimated revenues of $520,087,000 resulting in a net appropriation of $58,097,000. Fee Recovery.--Pursuant to the agreement reached in fiscal year 2001, the NRC is required to recover 94 percent of its budget authority, less the appropriation from the Nuclear Waste Fund, by assessing license and annual fees. Reports.--The Committee directs the Commission to continue to provide monthly reports on the status of its licensing and other regulatory activities. In addition, continued congressional oversight is necessary to ensure the NRC streamlines its business processes to improve regulatory efficiency while reducing unnecessary burden on licensees. NRC should report to the Congress by March 31, 2003, on efficiencies gained through implementation of the reactor oversight process. NRC should report to the Congress by June 30, 2003, on regulatory efficiencies that would be gained by consolidating or eliminating regional offices. OFFICE OF INSPECTOR GENERAL gross appropriation Appropriations, 2002.................................... $6,180,000 Budget estimate, 2003................................... 6,800,000 Committee recommendation................................ 6,800,000 revenues Appropriations, 2002.................................... $5,933,000 Budget estimate, 2003................................... 6,392,000 Committee recommendation................................ 6,392,000 This appropriation provides for the Office of Inspector General of the Nuclear Regulatory Commission. The Committee recommends an appropriation of $6,800,000 for fiscal year 2003. Nuclear Waste Technical Review Board Appropriations, 2002.................................... $3,100,000 Budget estimate, 2003................................... 3,102,000 Committee recommendation................................ 3,200,000 The Committee recommends an appropriation of $3,200,000 for the Nuclear Waste Technical Review Board. The Nuclear Waste Policy Amendments Act of 1987 directed the Board to evaluate the technical and scientific validity of the activities of the Department of Energy's nuclear waste disposal program. The Board must report its findings not less than two times a year to the Congress and the Secretary of Energy. TITLE V--GENERAL PROVISIONS The following list of general provisions are recommended by the Committee. The recommendation includes several provisions which have been included in previous Energy and Water Development Appropriations Acts: Language is included under section 501 which provides that none of the funds appropriated in this Act may be used in any way, directly or indirectly, to influence congressional action on any legislation or appropriation matters pending before Congress, other than to communicate to Members of Congress as described in section 1913 of Title 18, United States Code. A similar provision was contained in the Energy and Water Development Act, 2000, Public Law 106-60. Language is included under section 502 which requires that American-made equipment and goods be purchased to the greatest extent practicable. A similar provision was contained in the Energy and Water Development Act, 2000, Public Law 106-60. Language is included under section 503 which extends the existing authority for the Denali Commission. COMPLIANCE WITH PARAGRAPH 7, RULE XVI, OF THE STANDING RULES OF THE SENATE Paragraph 7 of rule XVI requires that Committee reports on general appropriations bills identify each Committee amendment to the House bill ``which proposes an item of appropriation which is not made to carry out the provisions of an existing law, a treaty stipulation, or an act or resolution previously passed by the Senate during that session.'' The recommended appropriations in title III, Department of Energy, generally are subject to annual authorization. However, the Congress has not enacted an annual Department of Energy authorization bill for several years, with the exception of the programs funded within the atomic energy defense activities which are authorized in annual defense authorization acts. The authorization for the atomic energy defense activities, contained in the National Defense Authorization Act of Fiscal Year 2003, is currently being considered by the Senate. Also, contained in title III, Department of Energy, in connection with the appropriation under the heading ``Nuclear Waste Disposal Fund,'' the recommended item of appropriation is brought to the attention of the Senate. COMPLIANCE WITH PARAGRAPH 7(C), RULE XXVI, OF THE STANDING RULES OF THE SENATE Pursuant to paragraph 7(c) of rule XXVI, on July 24, 2002, the Committee ordered S. 2784, an original Energy and Water Development Appropriations bill, 2003, subject to amendment and each subject to the budget allocations, by a recorded vote of 29-0, a quorum being present. The vote was as follows: Yeas Nays Chairman Byrd Mr. Inouye Mr. Hollings Mr. Leahy Mr. Harkin Ms. Mikulski Mr. Reid Mr. Kohl Mrs. Murray Mr. Dorgan Mrs. Feinstein Mr. Durbin Mr. Johnson Mrs. Landrieu Mr. Reed Mr. Stevens Mr. Cochran Mr. Specter Mr. Domenici Mr. Bond Mr. McConnell Mr. Burns Mr. Shelby Mr. Gregg Mr. Bennett Mr. Campbell Mr. Craig Mrs. Hutchison Mr. DeWine COMPLIANCE WITH PARAGRAPH 12, RULE XXVI, OF THE STANDING RULES OF THE SENATE Paragraph 12 of rule XXVI requires that Committee reports on a bill or joint resolution repealing or amending any statute or part of any statute include ``(a) the text of the statute or part thereof which is proposed to be repealed; and (b) a comparative print of that part of the bill or joint resolution making the amendment and of the statute or part thereof proposed to be amended, showing by stricken-through type and italics, parallel columns, or other appropriate typographical devices the omissions and insertions which would be made by the bill or joint resolution if enacted in the form recommended by the committee.'' In compliance with this rule, changes in existing law proposed to be made by the bill are shown as follows: existing law to be omitted is enclosed in black brackets; new matter is printed in italic; and existing law in which no change is proposed is shown in roman. With respect to this bill, it is the opinion of the Committee that it is necessary to dispense with these requirements in order to expedite the business of the Senate.
