BACKGROUND
Purpose of the Bill
This bill makes appropriations for the military functions
of the Department of Defense for the period October 1, 2013,
through September 30, 2014. Functional areas include the pay,
allowances, and support of military personnel, operation and
maintenance of the forces, procurement of equipment and
systems, and research, development, test and evaluation.
Appropriations for foreign military assistance, military
construction, family housing, nuclear weapons programs, and
civil defense are provided in other bills.
Hearings
The Appropriations Subcommittee on Defense began hearings
on April 17, 2013, and concluded them on July 17, 2013, after
nine separate sessions. The subcommittee heard testimony from
representatives of the Department of Defense, other Federal
agencies, and representatives of organizations.
Summary of the Bill
The Committee recommendation of $587,462,934,000 includes
funding to develop, maintain, and equip the military forces of
the United States in nonemergency appropriations.
The fiscal year 2014 budget request for activities funded
in the Department of Defense appropriations bill totals
$589,636,069,000 in new budget authority, including
$80,558,154,000 in contingency funding and $514,000,000 in
mandatory spending.
In fiscal year 2013, the Congress appropriated
$596,970,970,000 for activities funded in this bill. This
amount includes $509,927,697,000 in nonemergency
appropriations, $86,954,838,000 in overseas contingency
operations appropriations and $88,335,000 in disaster relief
appropriations.
The Committee recommendation in this bill is $9,508,036,000
below the amount provided in fiscal year 2013 and
$2,173,135,000 below the amount requested for fiscal year 2014.
The Committee recommends that $227,033,000 requested for Coast
Guard activities be appropriated directly to the Department of
Homeland Security.

\1\Includes scorekeeping adjustments.
The Committee has displayed recommended adjustments in
tables presented under each appropriation account.
These adjustments reflect the following Committee actions:
elimination of funds requested for programs which are lower
priority, duplicative, or not supported by firm requirements in
out-year development or procurement appropriations; deletion of
excess funds based on program delays or slow execution;
addition of funds to reflect congressional priorities and to
rectify shortfalls in the budget estimate; and implementation
of recommendations in S. 1197, the National Defense
Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2014, as reported.
The Committee directs that the funding increases outlined
in these tables shall be provided only for the specific
purposes indicated in the table.
CLASSIFIED PROGRAM ADJUSTMENTS
The Committee recommends adjustments to certain classified
programs, as explained in the classified annex to the
Committee's report.
Definition of Program, Project and Activity
In fiscal year 2014, for purposes of the Balanced Budget
and Emergency Deficit Control Act of 1985 (Public Law 99-177),
as amended, the term ``program, project and activity'' for
appropriations contained in this act shall be defined as the
most specific level of budget items identified in the
Department of Defense Appropriations Act, 2014 and the P-1 and
R-1 budget justification documents as subsequently modified by
congressional action. The following exception to the above
definition shall apply: for the military personnel and
operation and maintenance accounts the term ``program, project
and activity'' is defined as the appropriations accounts
contained in the Department of Defense Appropriations Act.
In carrying out any Presidential sequestration, the
Department of Defense and agencies shall conform to the
definition for ``program, project and activity'' set forth
above.
Committee Initiatives
The Committee has included funding above the President's
budget request for several programmatic initiatives which the
Committee believes are of inherent value for national defense.
In several cases, funds are restored for programs which were
included in previous Department of Defense budget requests, and
several are for programs that the Committee believes are
necessary to improve defense even though they have not been
included under the request formulated by the Department of
Defense. For instance, the Committee provides additional
research funding in the following areas: alternative energy,
unexploded ordnance and landmine detection, nanotechnology,
advanced metals and materials, military burn treatment, and
traumatic brain injury and psychological health. The Committee
believes additional research funding is warranted in these and
other areas to ensure that the Department of Defense continues
to pursue technological advances that are critical to our
national defense. The Committee has also provided funding for
programs that are chronically underfunded, such as range
conservation. The Committee directs that funds for these
initiatives are to be competitively awarded or provided to
programs that have received competitive awards in the past.
F-35 JOINT STRIKE FIGHTER
On June 19, 2013, the Committee held its first dedicated
hearing on the F-35 Joint Strike Fighter [JSF]. While the
program is making progress in the development and test of the
aircraft, significant challenges remain. Therefore, the
Committee recommends the following adjustments to the fiscal
year 2014 budget request to ensure that the program stays
focused on reducing risk in the development and test phase,
remains on a positive trend of reducing concurrency costs, and
is affordable for both U.S. and allied purchase now and into
the future.
The Department's fiscal year 2014 request maintains
production of F-35 aircraft at 29 aircraft, consistent with
2013 levels, but increases advance procurement of 2015 aircraft
by 13, to a total of 42 aircraft. This would be a 45-percent
increase in production when the F-35 program continues to
experience considerable challenges with software development,
system reliability, and maintenance system development. Given
the scope of issues that must be addressed in this phase of the
program, a large increase in the production of aircraft is not
yet warranted. However, the Committee acknowledges the positive
trends in the program and understands the need to increase
production rates to bring down unit cost. Therefore, the
Committee recommends an increase in fiscal year 2014 advance
procurement of seven aircraft for the Air Force variant for a
total of 26 aircraft, a reduction in advance procurement of
four aircraft and $48,000,000. In addition, the Committee does
not recommend increased advance procurement for the Navy F-35
variant since it remains behind the other two variants in
testing, a reduction of two aircraft and $31,500,000. This
recommendation provides a 24-percent increase in F-35
production from fiscal year 2014 to fiscal year 2015, or an
increase of seven aircraft.
The budget request includes $32,000,000 to start the
follow-on development program. The Committee believes it is too
early to start new efforts when the current development program
still has challenges and, therefore, recommends a $20,000,000
reduction. The remaining funds should be used to complete the
analysis and staffing necessary to finalize the F-35 follow-on
development capabilities development document that should be
approved by the Joint Requirements Oversight Council [JROC]
during fiscal year 2014. Furthermore, the Committee notes that
the F-35 draft schedule for follow-on Block 4 capabilities
would span over 6 years, would be concurrent with the ongoing
F-35 development efforts, and is projected to cost
$3,800,000,000. Given the current fiscal environment and the
anticipated ramp-up of F-35 production during this same time
period, the Committee believes Block 4, as currently planned,
is unaffordable. Understanding that the F-35 international
partners are interested in getting their specific weapons
integrated onto the aircraft and will fund the requisite work,
the Committee encourages the Secretary of Defense and the JROC
to place priority on integrating these weapons onto the F-35
during Block 4 follow-on development.
In addition, the Department requests $10,000,000 to assess
B61 nuclear bomb integration onto the F-35. The Committee
understands the Department is currently planning that the B61
capability will deliver as part of Block 4, but the JROC has
not approved the capability content of Block 4. Therefore, the
Committee recommends no funding for F-35 dual capable aircraft.
F-35 MANAGEMENT
The Committee supports the Department's decision to modify
the F-35 management charter and specify that the Program
Executive Officer [PEO] serves at the pleasure of the Secretary
of Defense rather than for a 2-year term. The Committee
believes the F-35 program will benefit from consistent
leadership that will ensure positive programmatic changes
become embedded in the F-35 culture.
CYBER MISSION FORCES
National Guard and Reserves in the Cyber National Mission
Forces.--With submission of the fiscal year 2014 budget
request, the Department of Defense--through U.S. Cyber Command
and the National Security Agency--formally submitted its
proposed realignment of cyber mission forces into National
Mission Teams, Combat Mission Teams, and Cyber Protection
Teams. Over the next several years, the military services will
be providing additional cyber mission forces to U.S. Cyber
Command, composed of an active duty, civilian, and contractor
workforce that has yet to be determined. The Committee notes
that National Guard and Reserve personnel possess unique skill
sets and operate under distinct authorities that could be
utilized to meet the national cyber mission force needs. Yet,
the Department of Defense has not provided the congressional
defense committees a comprehensive analysis regarding the role
that National Guard and Reserve forces could fulfill as cyber
mission forces are established, nor a cost comparison for
filling cyber mission forces with active versus Guard and
Reserve forces, or a mix thereof.
Therefore, the Committee directs the U.S. Cyber Command, in
conjunction with the Office of the Secretary of Defense, to
provide to the congressional defense committees no later than
60 days after enactment of this act, a classified and
unclassified report that includes:
--the current number and location of Reserve Component cyber
units, as well as skill sets provided by each of these
units;
--the number of individual teams, their composition by number
of personnel, and missions each of the services are
establishing for U.S. Cyber Command;
--the skill sets required to meet cyber mission team
requirements;
--a cost-benefit-analysis of meeting these requirements with
teams comprised of solely active duty personnel,
compared to teams partially or fully filled with
National Guard or Reserve personnel; and
--an analysis of cyber missions that are being considered for
the National Guard and/or Reserves.
Training of Cyber National Mission Forces.--The expansion
of cyber mission forces requires extensive training of
personnel to meet the needs identified by U.S. Cyber Command.
Each of the services provides personnel with different skill
sets and knowledge levels, and therefore generate different
training requirements. Therefore, the Committee directs the
U.S. Cyber Command, in conjunction with the Secretary of
Defense, to provide to the congressional defense committees, no
later than 90 days after enactment of this act, a classified
and unclassified report that includes:
--an identification and analysis of training requirements
necessary to meet U.S. Cyber Command cyber mission
personnel initial and full operational capability;
--a roadmap of training to be provided to active duty and
Guard and Reserve personnel to meet those requirements;
--cost estimates by service and mission team to meet training
requirements for each cyber mission team; and
--an estimated timeline to complete the training required to
reach full operational capability of the cyber mission
teams, as proposed in the fiscal year 2014 budget.
Further, the Committee notes the limitations in existing
training resources to meet cyber mission force training
requirements in the near-term. Therefore, the Committee
recommends that the military services analyze existing training
opportunities and infrastructure, taking into account existing
facilities and pre-existing synergies with the Department of
Defense and Intelligence Community when establishing their
training programs. The Committee directs U.S. Cyber Command to
provide to the congressional defense committees, no later than
90 days after enactment of this act, an analysis of U.S.
Government cyber mission force training infrastructure.
Army Cyber Forces Footprint.--Army cyber forces are
currently dispersed throughout the continental United States,
with key elements co-located with U.S. Cyber Command, and other
service cyber components, which allows for significant
synergies and operational efficiencies. The Committee
understands that the Army is currently reviewing its cyber
forces footprint. Following conversations with Army leadership,
the Committee understands that these discussions are
preliminary, and that no funds are included in the fiscal year
2014 budget request to modify or move the Army's cyber
missions. The Committee directs the Army to brief the
congressional defense committees on any proposed adjustments to
the Army's cyber footprint, to include the associated training,
infrastructure and sustainment costs.
SHIP MODERNIZATION, OPERATIONS AND SUSTAINMENT FUND
With the fiscal year 2014 budget submission, the Navy again
proposes to prematurely retire seven Ticonderoga-class guided
missile cruisers and two amphibious dock landing ships that
have a combined remaining service life of over 100 years. The
Committee notes that this proposal was rejected by the Congress
in the Fiscal Year 2013 National Defense Authorization Act and
the Fiscal Year 2013 Department of Defense Appropriations Act;
and that Congress provided significant funds to man, operate,
sustain and modernize these ships. As previously expressed in
Senate Report 112-196, the Committee is concerned with this
proposed elimination of force structure and believes it is
disconnected from the strategic shift to the Asia-Pacific,
creates future unaffordable shipbuilding requirements, and
exacerbates force structure shortfalls that negatively impact
the Department's ability to meet Combatant Command
requirements.
The Committee notes that some key assumptions that led the
Navy to propose prematurely retiring these ships have changed.
This includes the material condition of at least one ship being
superior to what the Navy assumed, as well as the scope and
cost of modernization efforts required for these platforms to
maintain their operational relevance for the balance of their
service lives. The Committee believes that further adjustments
to projected modernization efforts could be made, resulting in
cost savings while retaining valuable operational capability in
the near-term.
Therefore, the Committee again recommends denying these
proposed premature retirements and retaining this force
structure in its entirety. The Committee recommends
$2,422,400,000, to man, operate, sustain, upgrade and modernize
only CG-63, CG-64, CG-65, CG-66, CG-68, CG-69, CG-73, LSD-41
and LSD-46 in the Ship Modernization, Operations and
Sustainment Fund, as specified elsewhere in this act.
Recognizing the time required to plan and execute shipyard
availabilities and modernization periods, the Committee makes
these funds available until September 30, 2021. However, the
Committee also believes that upgrades to these ships have been
delayed for too long, and therefore directs the Secretary of
the Navy to upgrade at least one of the above listed
Ticonderoga-class cruisers starting in fiscal year 2014. The
Committee believes that this recommendation provides the fiscal
relief required by the Navy to maintain this critical force
structure and allows the Navy sufficient time to budget for
this force structure in future budget submissions.
PATRIOT MODERNIZATION
The fiscal year 2014 budget request includes $70,053,000 in
Research, Development, Test and Evaluation, Army and
$256,438,000 in Missile Procurement, Army for modernization of
the Patriot air missile defense system. The Committee notes and
continues its support for modernization of the aging Patriot
system; however, the Committee remains concerned with the Army
acquisition and funding strategies for this program. First, the
Committee notes that while the Army recently updated its
decades-old requirements document, the new requirements
document is so vague that it precludes a detailed understanding
of specific technologies required, development and fielding
schedules, and costs of the overall effort. The Committee
further notes that the current modernization spiral is slated
to cost close to $2,000,000,000 over the next 5 years, with an
additional $800,000,000 required thereafter. The scope and cost
of additional spirals are still to be determined, but the
Committee notes that the current spiral's costs are
significant, and that when combined with the costs of future
spirals the total modernization program would likely breach
thresholds for what ordinarily would be an Acquisition Category
I program. Therefore, the Committee is concerned that the Army
plans to sole-source most of its modernization program and
bypass full and open competition, which has repeatedly shown to
reduce costs. Finally, the Committee notes that contrary to
previously stated intentions from Army leaders, the Army does
not have a funded plan to harvest developed technologies from
programs previously terminated by the Army for use in the
Patriot Modernization program, such as the Surface Launched
Advanced Medium Range Air to Air Missile [SLAMRAAM], the Joint
Land Attack Cruise Missile Defense Elevated Netted Sensor
System [JLENS] and the Medium Extended Air Defense System
[MEADS], which were terminated after a combined investment of
approximately $6,000,000,000. Therefore, the Committee does not
recommend full support for the Army's request. However,
recognizing the urgent need to address current capability gaps,
the Committee recommends $231,916,000 for Patriot
modernization, including $202,716,000 in Missile Procurement,
Army for the procurement of 22 radar digital processors, an
increase of 17 units over 2013. The Committee directs that not
more than 50 percent of research and development funds for
Patriot modernization may be obligated until 30 days after the
Secretary of the Army provides to the congressional defense
committees a plan that establishes an open system software
architecture for future upgrades and technology refresh to the
Patriot system in the near-term. Further, the Committee directs
the Secretary of the Army, in conjunction with the Under
Secretary of Defense for Acquisition, Technology and Logistics,
to provide with the fiscal year 2015 budget submission an
acquisition strategy that incorporates full and open
competition for Patriot modernization in the near-, mid-, and
long-term.
EXPANSION OF GENERAL AND FLAG OFFICERS
The Committee supports a proposal from the Chairman of the
Joint Chiefs of Staff that would reduce general and flag
officers along with the accompanying support services. The U.S.
military is 30 percent smaller now than at the end of the Cold
War, yet has 20 percent more three- and four-star officers. The
Committee is concerned about the costs of general and flag
officers as the size of the military forces decreases. The
Committee reduces the appropriation for general and flag
officer operation and maintenance and military personnel
accounts by $8,000,000, and supports General Dempsey's plan to
reduce the Department by 144 general and flag officers over the
next 5 years. To better understand the costs of senior military
officers, the Committee directs the Comptroller General to
provide a report to the congressional defense committees. The
report shall include all direct and support costs associated
with general and flag officers to include basic pay, basic
allowance for subsistence, basic allowance for housing, travel
and per diem costs. The report shall also include the direct
costs of all officers and enlisted aides assigned to or
supporting general or flag officers; the travel and per diem
costs of such aides, the annual expenditures for military
housing provided to general and flag officers and executive
healthcare. The Committee addresses this issue in section 8069
of this act.
SUICIDE PREVENTION
The Committee applauds the efforts of the Department
regarding suicide prevention but shares the concern of the
Secretary of Defense that more can and should be done to
address this tragic situation. Therefore, the Committee adds
$10,000,000 for the Office of Suicide Prevention and encourages
the Department to consider funding community-based initiatives
to include efforts that will assist Reserve Component Forces
and their families after the transitional healthcare period has
ended, as authorized by section 706 of the National Defense
Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2013.
SEXUAL ASSAULT
The Committee remains extremely concerned with the level of
sexual assault in the military. The most recent report from the
Department found cases of reported sexual assaults increased 6
percent in 2012. Additionally, multiple reports have surfaced
since the beginning of the year of military officials in roles
designated to prevent and respond to sexual assault committing
these very offenses themselves. This is simply unacceptable.
The Committee supports the Department initiative to rescreen
and retrain recruiters and sexual assault prevention officers
but believes more needs to be done to create a culture
throughout the military in which sexual assault is not
tolerated.
The Committee also believes that victims of sexual assault
should not be subjected to further alienation during the
investigation and prosecution of their case. In January 2013,
the Air Force began a Special Victims' Counsel pilot program
that provides victims with a trained military lawyer to provide
legal assistance and support as a case makes its way through
the often arduous criminal justice process. The Committee
commends the Air Force on this program and sees it as a
positive step in giving victims the voice and support they
deserve. Therefore, the Committee recommends $25,000,000 for
the Department to implement the Special Victims' Counsel
program across all the services, consistent with the
recommendation in S. 1197, the National Defense Authorization
Act for Fiscal Year 2014, as reported.
OPERATIONAL RESERVE
The Committee recognizes the capability and commitment to
deploy shown by the Guard and Reserve components over the past
12 years of war and applauds their transition from a strategic
to an operational reserve. As the Department continues to face
budgetary constraints and force structure reductions, the
Committee believes the value of the Guard and Reserve must be
taken into account when determining the appropriate mix between
the Active and Reserve components. The Committee encourages the
Department to capitalize on the investments made in the Guard
and Reserve and appropriately plan and budget for the
utilization of the operational reserve through U.S. Code title
10, section 12304b Selected Reserve: order to active duty for
preplanned missions in support of combatant commands.
COMMISSION ON MILITARY SERVICE ACADEMY SUPERINTENDENTS
The Committee acknowledges that the military is undergoing
a period of significant change. It is facing the end of two
wars, the eligibility of women to serve in combat roles, and
the repeal of Don't Ask Don't Tell. The military is also facing
significant obstacles presented by high rates of suicide and
sexual assaults. The Superintendents at the Military Service
Academies play an important role in training future military
leaders who will be critical to addressing these and other
challenges. The Committee believes that identifying criteria
for Service Academy Superintendent selection and evaluation
should be a priority within the Department of Defense.
The Committee includes a provision that would create a
Commission to conduct a comprehensive analysis on the role of a
modern military Service Academy Superintendent, including the
criteria for selecting and evaluating the performance of a
Superintendent. The Commission would be temporary and advisory.
The Commission shall be made up of seven members appointed
by the Secretary of Defense. In carrying out its duties, the
Commission shall examine:
What is the role of a Superintendent?
What are the criteria for selecting a Superintendent?
What are the criteria for evaluating the performance of a
Superintendent?
What is necessary to ensure that the military can cultivate
effective Superintendents?
What role does diversity play in the selection of a
Superintendent?
What is the ability of Superintendents to adapt and respond
to the changes in the military?
To what extent is the nature of the work of a
Superintendent changing, and what skills are needed to adapt to
an evolving leadership role?
The Commission is required to produce a report not later
than 6 months after the enactment of this act and shall be
terminated 90 days after the issuance of this report.
ENGAGEMENT ON ARCTIC ISSUES
The Committee notes that the physical changes in the Arctic
are unprecedented in both their rate and scope of change. In
addition to the economic and social concerns, numerous studies,
including the 2010 Quadrennial Defense Review and the U.S. Navy
Arctic Roadmap, have documented the significant impact that a
rapidly changing Arctic has on National Security, to include an
increasing number of vessels expected to be operating in the
Arctic Ocean in the summer and fall months.
The Arctic Council has grown significantly in recent years
with increased influence, visibility, and membership. As of May
2013, China, Japan, Singapore, India, The Republic of Korea and
Italy have been granted observer status. In 2015, the U.S. will
assume its 2-year Chair of the Arctic Council, succeeding
Canada in this role. In view of the increasing significance and
importance of the Arctic Council, and the United States'
upcoming leadership in this body, the Committee urges the
Secretary of Defense to continue to examine ways the Department
can support engagement on Arctic issues, including funding for
better Arctic Domain Awareness, mapping the U.S. Arctic waters,
and enhanced observations and prediction of Arctic weather,
ocean, and ice conditions.
NATIONAL SECURITY AGENCY REPORTS
The Committee directs the National Security Agency [NSA] to
provide to the congressional intelligence committees, and the
Senate Committee on the Judiciary, and the House Committee on
the Judiciary, no later than 90 days after enactment of this
act:
--A report, unclassified to the greatest extent possible,
setting forth:
--For the last 5 years, on an annual basis, the number of
records acquired by NSA as part of the bulk
telephone metadata program authorized by the
Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court, pursuant
to section 215 of the USA PATRIOT Act, and the
number of such records that have been reviewed by
NSA personnel in response to a query of such
records;
--To the extent possible, an estimate of the number of
records of United States persons that have been
acquired by NSA as part of the bulk telephone
metadata program and the number of such records
that have been reviewed by NSA personnel in
response to a query.
--A report, unclassified to the greatest extent possible, and
with a classified annex if necessary, describing all
NSA bulk collection activities, including when such
activities began, the cost of such activities, what
types of records have been collected in the past, what
types of records are currently being collected, and any
plans for future bulk collection.
--A report, unclassified to the greatest extent possible, and
with a classified annex if necessary, including a list
of terrorist activities that were disrupted, in whole
or in part, with the aid of information obtained
through NSA's telephone metadata program and whether
this information could have been promptly obtained by
other means.
PRESERVATION OF MILITARY HISTORY
The Committee recognizes the importance of preserving
military history, especially that which is related to U.S.
campaigns on foreign soil. Military history and education
facilities are integral to the preservation of the national
history of the United States and are a direct reminder of the
service and sacrifices made by members of the military
services, the Coast Guard, Merchant Marines, and their
families. The Committee encourages the Secretary of Defense and
the Secretaries and Chiefs of each military Department to
examine these national assets to ensure the Nation's continued
commitment to the preservation of military history.

Military Personnel Overview
Reserve Component Budget Reporting.--The Committee
continues its requirement for the Department to provide a semi-
annual detailed report to the congressional defense committees
showing transfers between subactivities within the military
personnel appropriation. Reports shall be submitted not later
than 30 days following the end of the second quarter and 30
days following the end of the fiscal year.
Permanent Change of Station [PCS].--The Committee notes
that the services expect to underexecute their PCS budgets by
more than $124,000,000 in fiscal year 2013 due to lower average
costs per move and fewer overall moves than budgeted. This
underexecution comes on top of the $146,792,500 reduction to
PCS budgets in the Consolidated and Further Continuing
Appropriations Act, 2013. While the Committee awaits the report
required by that bill from the Under Secretary of Defense
(Personnel and Readiness) on potential efficiencies in the PCS
program, it believes savings can be realized in the fiscal year
2014 PCS program and recommends a total reduction of
$294,265,000 across the services' operational and rotational
base budgets. The Committee supports the services' increased
time on station goals and encourages them to continue working
to meet these established goals.
Unobligated Balances.--A Government Accountability Office
analysis of past year obligation rates shows that the services
continue to underexecute their military personnel accounts. Due
to excess unobligated balances, the Committee recommends a
total reduction of $491,239,000 from the fiscal year 2014
military personnel accounts.
Enlistment of DACA Recipients.--The Committee is concerned
that immigrants who have received Deferred Action for Childhood
Arrivals [DACA] are not authorized to enlist in the Armed
Forces, which has a negative impact on military recruitment and
readiness. Under 10 U.S.C. section 504, Service Secretaries can
authorize the enlistment of non-citizens when it is ``vital to
the national interest.'' Enlisting DACA recipients would allow
the Armed Forces to access an expanded pool of recruits. To be
eligible for DACA, an individual must have entered the United
States as a child; graduated from secondary school, obtained a
general equivalency degree, or be currently enrolled in school;
and not have a serious criminal record. DACA recipients are, by
definition, educated and integrated into American society, and
many have shown an interest in and aptitude for military
service through participation in Junior Reserve Officers'
Training Corps [JROTC]. The requirements to qualify for DACA
are similar to those for legislation known as the DREAM
[Development Relief and Education of Alien Minors] Act. In
2011, Dr. Clifford Stanley, then-Undersecretary of Defense for
Personnel and Readiness, testified in support of the DREAM Act,
noting it would allow the Department of Defense ``to expand the
market of high-quality youth to the advantage of military
recruitment and readiness.'' In 2010, then-Secretary of Defense
Robert Gates said the DREAM Act ``will result in improved
recruitment results and attendant gains in unit manning and
military performance.'' Accordingly, the Committee directs the
Secretary of Defense, no later than 90 days after enactment of
this act, to provide an unclassified report to the
congressional defense committees on the feasibility and impact
on military recruitment and readiness of authorizing the
enlistment of DACA recipients.
Accession of Officers With Auditory Impairments.--The
Committee directs the Department of the Air Force to study the
feasibility and advisability of permitting individuals with
auditory impairments, including deafness, to access as officers
in the Armed Forces.

OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE OVERVIEW
Civilian Workforce.--The civilian workforce has faced many
challenges over the past several years. The last pay raise was
in 2010. In 2013, the Department took specific action to
release temporary employees, freeze hiring, and furlough most
of its civilian workforce due to sequestration. The Committee
recognizes the critical role that the civilian workforce plays
every day in ensuring the mission success of the Armed Forces.
The Committee is increasingly concerned over the impact of
these challenges on the Department's ability to maintain a
stable, effective, right-sized civilian cadre. Therefore, the
Committee fully funds the 1 percent pay raise for civilian
employees as requested.
Overestimation of Civilian Workforce.--While the Committee
supports a strong civilian workforce, the fiscal year 2014
budget request substantially overestimates the number of
civilians that will be employed during fiscal year 2014.
Through analysis directed by the Committee during the budget
review, each service and defense agency identified the current
estimate for civilian full time equivalents [FTE] that will be
on the books in fiscal year 2013 and it is far short of what
was planned for in the budget request. The results showed that
the total difference between the planned fiscal year 2013 FTE
level and the current estimate is approximately 11,660 FTE.
That means that at the beginning of fiscal year 2014 the
Department of Defense will have 11,660 fewer FTE than the
planned starting number. Considering that the fully-burdened
average salary of Department of Defense civilians is
approximately $100,000 that could mean an overstatement of
about $1,200,000,000 in the operation and maintenance accounts
based on the overestimation of civilian FTE levels at the
beginning of fiscal year 2014. The Committee recommendation
includes an overestimation reduction.
Voluntary Military Education Programs--Tracking Outcomes.--
The Committee is concerned about the lack of information
available on the outcomes of students receiving Tuition
Assistance and My Career Advancement Account [MyCAA] benefits.
Therefore, the Committee directs the Department to submit a
report tracking such outcomes of each of these programs. The
report shall be submitted on or before June 1, 2014, and shall
include, but not be limited to, the following data totals for
calendar year 2013: an aggregate graduation rate, loan default
rate, and average indebtedness. Additionally, the report shall
then disaggregate the data to show these same metrics by
sector: public, private for-profit, and private not-for-profit.
Finally, the report shall include the percentage of
servicemembers utilizing the Top-Up program for voluntary
military education and the average dollar amount of usage.
Additionally, the Department is encouraged to make an effort to
gather data on the jobs attained after graduation, specifically
whether those jobs can be reasonably said to be in the field of
study identified in the students' education plans.
Voluntary Military Education Programs--Education Service
Officers and Third Party Audits.--The Committee recognizes the
importance of voluntary military education programs to the
continued education of our men and women in uniform and their
spouses. In recent years, the programs have grown in popularity
among servicemembers and, as such, in cost to the Federal
Government. The Committee notes recent efforts to improve
oversight; however, questions remain as to the effectiveness of
these efforts.
The Committee is concerned that the ratio of Education
Service Officers [ESOs] to servicemembers is not optimized to
provide the level of support required to properly advise
servicemembers about educational opportunities and the
financial obligations tied to them. The Committee is also
concerned about the number and transparency of third party
audits of schools within the Department's Tuition Assistance
program. The Committee encourages the Department to further
analyze the ratio of ESOs to servicemembers and the number and
transparency of third party audits to make improvements during
fiscal year 2014.
In order to better inform future requests, the Committee
directs the Government Accountability Office [GAO] to provide a
report to the congressional defense committees making
recommendations on the issues of ESO ratios and third party
audits within 90 days of the date of enactment of this act.
Within the analysis, the Committee suggests the GAO review
counseling service ratios in educational support programs
across the Government to measure the Department of Defense's
efforts against those of similar programs. Also, the GAO shall
review the current third party audits of schools within the
Tuition Assistance program and provide recommendations for
improvements to the audit process, if warranted, and shall
provide examples of organizations with the expertise to conduct
such reviews.
Extremity Protection Program.--The Committee encourages the
Department of Defense to fully fund the Cold Weather Protective
Equipment--Extremity Protection Program in order to sustain
research and development programs, acquisition requirements and
to maintain a basic combat capability in protective equipment
for servicemembers.
Telecommunications Expense Management.--The Consolidated
Appropriations Act, 2012, directed the Secretary of Defense to
complete a study and assess the feasibility of using commercial
off-the-shelf [COTS] telecommunication expense management
solutions to improve enterprise visibility over the
Department's telecommunications expenses and identify possible
efficiencies in this growing technological area. Since that
study was completed, the Department of Defense Chief
Information Officer [CIO] promulgated guidance regarding the
use of these management solutions. The Committee is concerned
that the military services are not yet in compliance with the
CIO's guidance. Therefore, the Committee recommends that the
Secretary of Defense defer new large telecommunications
contracts until the Department has begun to proactively manage
telecommunications usage utilizing competitively awarded COTS
expense management solutions in accordance with the CIO
guidance.
Combat and Camouflage Utility Uniforms.--The Committee is
concerned about the high cost of and disparity in protection
from separate combat and camouflage utility uniforms fielded by
the military services. The Committee believes that the
Secretary of Defense should take steps to end separate
development and fielding of service-specific combat and
camouflage utility uniforms and adopt and field the same combat
and camouflage utility uniforms for use by all members of the
Armed Forces to the maximum extent practicable. The issue is
addressed in section 8038 of this act which is consistent with
S. 1197, the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year
2014, as reported.
Presidential Management Fellows Program.--The Committee is
concerned about the future of the Presidential Management
Fellow [PMF] Program in the Office of the Secretary of Defense
[OSD]. The PMF Program serves as an important tool to grow
young professionals as future leaders in OSD. In this time of
budget uncertainty, it is essential that the Department
capitalize on its investment in the next generation of
leadership and plan to incorporate them into the workforce. The
Committee directs the Department to continue to fully fund the
program at the President's budget request level and offer
placement of no fewer than three new PMFs into the program in
fiscal year 2014. The Committee further directs that successful
PMFs shall be converted into full-time permanent positions
within the Office of the Secretary of Defense at the completion
of the PMF program.
Reserve and Guard Access to the National Military Command
Center.--The Committee is concerned about the recent limitation
in access for Guard and Reserve personnel assigned on long-term
orders to drill in the National Military Command Center (NMCC)
under Joint Staff Instruction 5241.01G. Members of the Guard
and Reserve perform critical functions to the NMCC and their
presence enables continued cost-effective operations. The
Committee directs that Guard and Reserve personnel drilling in
the NMCC shall be provided the same access as Active Duty and
civilian personnel assigned to the NMCC.
Advanced Trauma Training Program for National Guard and
Reserve.--The Committee recognizes the valuable support
universities, hospitals, and other military partners provide by
offering civilian-based emergency response trauma training to
sustain medics' and medical providers' capabilities of the
National Guard Enhanced Response Forces Packages [CERFP],
National Guard Homeland Response Forces [NGHRF], and the Army
Reserve Consequence Management Response Forces [CCMRF]. The
Committee encourages the National Guard and Reserve to continue
pursuing state of the art trauma training with these civilian
partners, thus maintaining unit medical readiness postures at
optimum levels as the CERFPs, NGHRFs, and CCMRFs military
healthcare providers maintain their individual skills to
respond effectively to emergency incidents on the Homeland.
Furthermore, in order to minimize the civilian-military
operational gaps, in the event of a catastrophic incident, the
Committee also encourages the development of enhanced
preparedness medical training programs focusing on mass
casualty triage, advanced disaster life support, advanced
hazardous material life support, emergency dental, and
psychological health by increasing civilian-based advanced
trauma expertise gained through day-to-day experiences and
medical research programs.
Decontamination Lotion.--The Committee recognizes the
importance of chemical warfare countermeasures that can be
carried by individual service members and packaged in
individual troop kits. In the event of a chemical attack,
immediate access to decontamination measures will be critical
to mitigate serious injuries due to exposure. The Committee
encourages the Department of Defense to place a high priority
on current and developing decontamination agents and fully fund
annual service specific requirements.
New Strategic Arms Treaty.--The Committee is concerned
about a possible delay in announcing New Strategic Arms Treaty
force structure levels and encourages the Secretary of Defense
to make those announcements prior to submission of the Fiscal
Year 2015 budget request.
Joint Prisoner of War/Missing in Action Accounting Command
[JPAC] Efforts.--Section 1509 of the Fiscal Year 2010 National
Defense Authorization Act [NDAA] directed the Department of
Defense to ensure that at least 200 missing persons are
accounted for under the JPAC program annually beginning in
fiscal year 2015. The Committee encourages the Department to
consider partnering with research universities with expertise
in archeology and remains recovery to assist in becoming
compliant with the NDAA mandates.
Dual-Status Military Technicians.--Military technicians are
civilian employees of the Department of Army or Department of
the Air Force, employed by a State Adjutant General, but they
are also members of the military because they are required to
be drilling (part-time) military members of the National Guard.
These technicians provide the day-to-day continuity in the
operation and training of National Guard Units. Given their
dual-status role, military technicians are required to maintain
the same individual-level of readiness as their Active
component counterparts and directly contribute to unit-level
readiness in support of National Guard missions. As such, the
Committee encourages the Department of Defense to treat
military technician pay the same as their Active component
counterparts when planning for employee furloughs.
Stuart Creek 2 Wildfire.--The Stuart Creek 2 Fire, which
has burned 85,018 acres near residential areas of Fairbanks,
Alaska, began June 19, 2013, on a military training range 25
miles east of North Pole. The Army is currently investigating
whether or not the fire was caused by live fire artillery on
the Army's Yukon Training Range. The Committee is deeply
concerned about reports that the live fire artillery exercise
was permitted to occur notwithstanding the advice of the Bureau
of Land Management's Alaska Fire Service and the Fort
Wainwright Garrison that it be postponed due to the high
potential for wildfire. Accordingly, the Committee directs the
Army to review its procedures for determining when to postpone
exercises due to wildfire risk in light of the outcome of its
investigation into the Stuart Creek Fire, and to report to the
congressional defense committees on its conclusions no later
than April 15, 2014.

Army Force Structure.--In late June of 2013, the Army
announced plans to reduce its number of brigade combat teams
[BCTs] from 45 to 33 by the end of fiscal year 2017 as a result
of the Budget Control Act of 2011. The near-term funding
reductions will be met through a reduction in authorized end
strength from approximately 570,000 Active Duty and 358,000
Army National Guard to approximately 490,000 and 350,000,
respectively. The Army Reserve will forgo a planned growth of
1,000 soldiers and will remain at 205,000. Twelve BCTs will be
eliminated, but the remaining BCTs will be reorganized by
adding one maneuver battalion (from 2 to 3) as well as engineer
and fire capabilities, to make armor and infantry BCTs more
lethal, flexible, and agile.
Despite the timing of the announcement, the Army claims
that the budgetary implications of the restructuring decisions
are included in the fiscal year 2014 President's budget
submission. However, the cost of the restructuring cannot be
identified in the budget justification. Therefore, the
Committee directs the Army to provide a full cost analysis of
its restructuring and stationing decisions to the congressional
defense committees no later than 90 days after the enactment of
this act. The cost analysis shall include the following data
broken out by fiscal year beginning in fiscal year 2014 and for
each subsequent fiscal year across the future year defense plan
[FYDP]: (a) the costs and savings assumed by appropriation with
line item detail, and (b) workforce implications by showing
changes broken out by civilian and contractor personnel.

Naval Shipyard Apprentice Program.--The Committee directs
that during fiscal year 2014 the Navy shall induct classes of
no fewer than 100 apprentices, respectively, at each of the
naval shipyards. The Committee further directs the Navy to
include the costs of the fiscal year 2015 class of apprentices
in its budget request.
U.S. Coast Guard.--The Committee is aware that Department
of Defense [DOD] regulations currently restrict DOD mission
appropriated funded activities from offering reimbursable rates
to non-DOD agencies. This restriction forces the Navy to charge
the U.S. Coast Guard fully burdened rates for drydocking
services at Navy shipyards rather than reimbursable rates.
Therefore, the Committee directs that funds appropriated under
Operation and Maintenance, Navy may be used to pay overhead
costs incurred by a Naval Shipyard when drydocking U.S. Coast
Guard ships.

Demonstration Program for Contractors Employing Persons
with Disabilities.--The Committee commends the Air Force for
fulfilling requirements for the scanning and digitization of
millions of personnel records through the employment of persons
with severe disabilities, who would otherwise receive social
security disability benefits. This effort has allowed those
with disabilities to find sustainable employment and achieve
self-sufficiency, while ultimately achieving substantial
taxpayer savings. The Committee encourages the Air Force to
continue this important program using eligible contractors for
its scanning and digitization requirements and other
appropriate work.
Lajes Air Base.--The Committee supports the continued
bilateral relationship the United States has with Portugal,
particularly with respect to United States-NATO operations.
However, given current budget constraints, the Committee
recognizes the Air Force's need to consolidate its force
structure and operations at Lajes Air Base on Terceira Island
in the Azores. The Committee understands this reduction will
also impact host country civilian positions and the local
economy. The Committee encourages the Department to continue to
work closely with Portuguese and Azorean officials to minimize
the economic impacts to the local population and to continue to
explore all possibilities for other U.S. Government uses of
Lajes Air Base. The Committee directs the Secretary of Defense
to provide a report to the congressional defense committees not
later than 90 days after the enactment of this act on United
States Air Force plans for a continued U.S. presence at Lajes
Air Base; steps to be taken to mitigate adverse effects on the
surrounding community; and initiatives to strengthen and
enhance the strategic relationship between the U.S. and
Portugal.

Special Operations Command Budget Justification
Materials.--The level of detail provided in budget
justification documents is not sufficient for Special
Operations Command's [SOCOM] operation and maintenance [O&M]
resources. With increased requirements driving larger budget
requests, the Committee needs more itemized information in
order to conduct proper oversight. Therefore, the Committee
directs that budget activities be established for SOCOM's O&M
budget. Additionally, SOCOM is directed to submit an OP-5
Operation and Maintenance Detail exhibit and OP-32 Summary of
Price and Program Changes exhibit for each budget subactivity.
Finally, the Committee directs that normal prior approval
reprogramming procedures be used to transfer funds between
budget activities in excess of $15 million. The following table
assigns the budget activity and budget subactivity structure:
Budget Activity 1 includes Subactivities:
Combat Development Activities
Flight Operations
Other Operations
Ship/Boat Operations
Base Support
Communications
Force Related Training
Intelligence
Maintenance
Management/Operational Headquarters
Operational Support
Budget Activity 3 includes Subactivities:
Professional Development
Specialized Skill Training
Budget Activity 4 includes Subactivity:
Acquisition/Program Management
Defense Language and National Security Education Office.--
The Committee recognizes that, in partnership with universities
across the country, the Defense Language and National Security
Education Office provides critical training for servicemembers
and government officials in a number of languages and strategic
cultures, including those of the Arab world, Afghanistan,
China, and Iran. The Committee encourages the Department of
Defense to continue placing a high priority on these programs
to ensure warfighters receive the language and culture training
needed to complete their missions effectively.
Military Use Airspace.--The Committee encourages the
Department of Defense to continue to utilize national assets
such as the Hays Military Operations Area to maintain airborne
combat readiness for both manned and remotely piloted aircraft.
Middle East Regional Security Studies Programs.--The
Committee encourages the Department of Defense to continue to
support established university programs that promote region-
wide informal workshops and task forces on arms control,
regional security, and related topics to the Middle East for
Arab, Israeli and other officials and experts engaged in these
issues.
Meals Ready-To-Eat War Reserve.--The Committee is concerned
that the Defense Logistics Agency's [DLA] potential reduction
of its Meals Ready-to-Eat [MRE] war reserve could harm the
industrial base and threaten the Department's ``Go to War''
capabilities. Therefore, the Committee encourages the Director
of DLA, in conjunction with the military services and industry,
to develop a comprehensive plan to address the aggregate MRE
requirements for each of the military services that considers
war time surge requirements and timely rotation of the MRE war
reserve.
Military Dependent Student Online Assistance.--The
Committee understands children of Active Duty military families
are faced with unique educational challenges in part because of
frequent changes of station over the course of childhood. In
order to meet these challenges, military parents can
substantially benefit from access to Internet-based educational
resources that can be brought to bear on the individualized
needs of their children. The Department is encouraged to
provide an assessment tool with accompanying resource material
that helps parents to engage with children to develop
conceptual understandings and to improve learning and skills.
Wildlife Trafficking.--The proceeds of animal poaching and
wildlife trafficking are known to fund armed conflict on the
African continent, including by the Lord's Resistance Army and
other destabilizing groups in the Great Lakes Region. The
Committee supports efforts by Africa Command and Special
Operations Command to assist in the mitigation of these illegal
activities through their capacity-building engagements with
African governments and authorities, including ``train the
trainer'' exchanges and exercises. The Committee expects Africa
Command and Special Operations Command to continue these
engagements in areas affected by wildlife trafficking.
The Committee also directs the Secretary of Defense to
provide a report to the congressional defense committees within
120 days of enactment of this act describing the planned
activities to support implementation of the Executive Order
establishing the Presidential Task Force on Wildlife
Trafficking.

National Guard Industrial Base.--The National Guard
Readiness Sustainment and Maintenance Program serves as a surge
capacity during wartime to support Army depots and other
facilities in the repair, reset, and recap of Army and Army
National Guard equipment. It also provides an independent
source of repair for the National Guard to increase the
equipment on hand of National Guard units and to sustain a
greater degree of readiness than could otherwise be maintained.
The Committee urges that no less than the amount provided for
the National Guard Readiness Sustainment and Maintenance
Program in the fiscal year 2013 appropriations bill be provided
in the Land Forces Depot Maintenance, Army National Guard
account for the repair and return of equipment and vehicles.

Cooperative Threat Reduction.--The Department of Defense
Cooperative Threat Reduction [CTR] program has proven highly
successful in its efforts to secure and dismantle weapons of
mass destruction and their associated infrastructure in the
former Soviet Union and former Soviet bloc countries. On June
17, 2013, the Russian Government did not renew the umbrella
agreement with the United States Government. Therefore, the
fiscal year 2014 program will change substantially from its
original plan. The Committee recommends full funding in fiscal
year 2014, but directs the Department to keep the congressional
defense committees fully informed of changes to the existing
program.
Improving Oversight.--For many years, the Cooperative
Threat Reduction program has not been able to obligate its
funding in a timely manner. Furthermore, the program has
significant flexibility and lacks oversight of its funding. For
example, the program realigned 25 percent of the budget across
different sub-accounts after enactment. This flexibility allows
for quick reaction changes in spending, but the Committee has
no insight as to why or when these funding changes occur.
Therefore, the Committee directs the Cooperative Threat
Reduction program to follow standard Department of Defense
reprogramming procedures when transferring a cumulative amount
of $20,000,000 or 10 percent, whichever is lesser between sub-
accounts.
Department of Defense Acquisition Workforce Development Fund
Appropriations, 2013\1\................................. $50,132,000
Budget estimate, 2014................................... 256,031,000
Committee recommendation................................ 131,331,000
\1\Does not reflect the March 1, 2013, sequester of funds under Public
Law 112-25.
The Committee recommends an appropriation of $131,331,000.
This is $124,700,000 below the budget estimate.
Mandatory Transfers.--The Defense Acquisition Workforce
Development Fund has been instrumental in increasing the
quantity and quality of the Department's acquisition workforce.
Since 2008, the acquisition workforce has increased by 21
percent. The Committee believes the emphasis on improving the
workforce is starting to positively impact overall acquisition
performance. The General Accounting Office's 2013 assessment of
selected weapon programs identified a handful of positive
trends: More than 60 percent of programs realized an increase
in buying power; an increased percentage of programs are
meeting cost performance metrics; and eight of the ten
costliest programs reported cost decreases over the past year.
The fiscal year 2014 budget justification for Defense
Acquisition Workforce Development Fund states that the
Department is now close to meeting its acquisition workforce
hiring goals. The budget justification explains that the
Department is now shifting its focus ``from rebuilding
workforce capacity to sustaining levels required to perform the
acquisition mission with acceptable risk and increase our focus
on deliberate training and development of that workforce.''
Interestingly, the project level funding amounts in the budget
justification do not correlate with this narrative. For fiscal
year 2013, recruiting and hiring was estimated to be
$374,000,000, while the fiscal year 2014 request is
$498,700,000. With planned recruiting and hiring efforts
leveling off or declining in fiscal year 2014, the budget
request is overstated by $124,700,000.
The Committee believes this incongruity between the
Department's stated strategy and the funding request is caused
by the mandatory spending amounts established in title 10 of
United States Code, section 1705. In fiscal year 2014, the
amounts established in title 10 require the Department make
available at least 80 percent of $800,000,000 either through
transfer from operation and maintenance appropriations, or
through direct appropriations. Requiring the Department to
spend $640,000,000 in fiscal year 2014 is excessive, especially
given the fact that the fiscal year 2013 required spending
amount was $400,000,000. Moreover, this Committee has
encouraged the Department to fully fund its Defense Acquisition
Workforce Development Fund request through the normal
appropriations process, instead of relying on the mandated
transfers that are excess to need.
Over the past few years, the Committee has urged the
Department to provide accurate and executable estimates of
their annual spending needs. The Committee notes that these
estimates have never been provided. Therefore, the Committee
directs the Under Secretary of Defense for Acquisition,
Technology, and Logistics to provide to the congressional
defense committees within 15 days of the delivery of the fiscal
year 2015 President's budget request, an estimate of Defense
Acquisition Workforce Development Fund funding needs for fiscal
year 2015 through fiscal year 2019. This estimate should
represent the annual, executable funding need given the current
state of the acquisition workforce. Further, the Committee
urges the Secretary of Defense to fully fund the Defense
Acquisition Workforce Development Fund up to this estimated
amount.

Ordnance Plant Recapitalization.--The Committee notes that
the Department of Defense [DOD] does not have a long-term
strategic capital improvement plan in place to support its
aging ordnance plants. These facilities are supporting a
multitude of essential DOD requirements in support of the
warfighter, yet these activities could be disrupted if basic
infrastructure needs, such as heating and cooling, power
generation, safety and environmental hazards are not addressed
in the near future. Therefore, the Committee directs the
Secretary of Defense and the Secretary of the Army to jointly
establish a multi-year recapitalization plan for the ordnance
plants, including the industrial reserve, addressing these
infrastructure and environmental challenges, and to include the
required funds in future budget requests based on the most
urgent needs identified. The ordnance facility recapitalization
plan shall be submitted to the congressional defense committees
not later than 90 days after enactment of this act.
High Mobility Multi-Purpose Wheeled Vehicle [HMMWV].--The
Committee recognizes the value the HMMWV has brought to the
military, not only in contingency operations, but also in
support of domestic emergency response and humanitarian
assistance efforts. Furthermore, ensuring the capacity of the
U.S. industrial base is a national imperative. The Committee
further recognizes that the Army National Guard and the state
Adjutants General strongly support HMMWV modernization and have
consistently included new model HMMWVs among its funding
priorities. Therefore, the Committee urges the Department to
continue to invest in and procure HMMWVs as part of its
enduring vehicle fleet.
Organic Industrial Base of the United States.--The
Committee notes that the organic industrial base of the U.S.
military advances a vital national security interest by
producing necessary materials, munitions, and hardware when
sources outside of the U.S. military are unable to meet this
urgent need as quickly as the organic industrial base, saving
the lives of warfighters. The Committee believes that the
capacity of the organic industrial base of the U.S. military
must be maintained and discourages the Department of Defense
from taking any action that would deteriorate this essential
capability.
Arsenal Sustainment Initiative.--The Committee supports the
ongoing efforts of the Department of the Army to develop the
Army Organic Industrial Base Strategy. This process is
identifying manufacturing capabilities at each organic
industrial facility that are critical for this country to
sustain in wartime and peacetime in case the U.S. military is
called to act. However, the Committee is concerned that while
the Army Organic Industrial Base Strategy is identifying
capabilities, it will not fund these capabilities at a level
adequate to maintain them. In particular, the Nation's arsenals
are at risk of not having the capacity to respond rapidly to
meet the Department's needs. Due to the nature of operating
under the Working Capital Fund, the slowdown in production and
production capacity caused by sequestration is causing the
workload rates to increase for these plants to the point where
they are not able to compete for public/private partnerships
and other business to help sustain capacity in peacetime. In
order to ensure that this industrial base is competitive, cost-
effective, and ready when called on, the Committee recommends
$150,000,000 to the Army Defense Working Capital Fund for the
Industrial Mobilization Capacity account to address the issue
of non-competitive rates at the arsenals, which will better
allow the arsenals to engage in public-private partnerships to
maintain these critical capabilities.
In addition, the Committee directs the Secretary of the
Army to assign the arsenals sufficient workload to maintain the
critical capabilities identified in the Army Organic Industrial
Base Strategy Report and ensure cost efficiency and technical
competence in peacetime, while preserving the ability to
provide an effective and timely response to mobilizations,
national defense contingency situations, and other emergency
requirements.
Further, the Committee directs the Secretary of the Army to
release the Army Organic Industrial Base Strategy Report within
30 days of enactment of this act, and brief the congressional
defense committees within 90 days of this act on its plan to
ensure sufficient workload for the efficient operation of the
arsenals.
Army Organic Industrial Base.--The Committee directs the
Secretary of the Army to provide 45-day written notification to
the congressional defense committees prior to the Secretary
approving a civilian reductions in force that will result in an
employment loss of 50 or more full-time employees at any Army
organic industrial base facility. The notification shall
include the impact that the proposed reduction in force will
have on the ability to maintain the organic industrial base
critical manufacturing capabilities as delineated in the Army
Organic Industrial Base Strategy Report, a detailed accounting
of the costs of implementing the reduction in force, and an
assessment of the cost of, and time necessary, to restore any
lost capability to meet future organic wartime manufacturing
needs.
Light-Weight Ammunition.--As noted in the Senate report
accompanying S. 1197, the National Defense Authorization Act
for Fiscal Year 2014, a current project the Department of
Defense is executing under Defense Production Act, Title III
authority is developing a domestic production capability for
light-weight polymer-based ammunition. The Committee agrees
this effort has the potential to provide the warfighter with
improved battlefield mobility and better survivability.
Additionally, it has the potential to decrease logistical
burdens and reduce fuel consumption in military operations.
Accordingly, the Committee encourages the Department to
continue this effort and provide a briefing or report to this
Committee no later than February 1, 2014, on ammunition
projects which could enhance warfighter capabilities and reduce
logistical burdens.

------------------------------------------------------------------------
Aerial Common Sensor.--The Army is requesting $142,050,000
for the first year of production of four enhanced medium
altitude reconnaissance and surveillance system [EMARSS]
aircraft. The program has experienced two cost overruns on the
development aircraft and has not completed the limited user
testing. Therefore, the Committee recommends reducing the
procurement request by $57,000,000 and two aircraft.
UH-72A Lakota Light Utility Helicopter [LUH].--The budget
request includes $96,227,000 to procure 10 UH-72A Lakota
Helicopters. The request also proposes ending Lakota production
after the fiscal year 2014 buy and truncating the total program
at 315 aircraft instead of the originally planned 346. The UH-
72A Lakota program was established to replace aging UH-1 and
OH-58 fleets which were already years past their directed
retirement dates and to augment the UH-60 fleet which was more
costly to procure and operate than a UH-72A. The Lakota program
has achieved cost, schedule, and performance goals and is a
more cost effective approach to performing utility missions
than operating aging and more expensive helicopters; therefore,
the Committee does not support program truncation short of the
original requirement and provides $171,227,000 to purchase 20
UH-72A Lakota helicopters in fiscal year 2014.
Kiowa Warrior Modifications.--The Army requests
$184,044,000 to procure a new cockpit and other modifications.
For the last couple of years, the Committee has been
encouraging the Army to focus on the replacement aircraft and
only modify the safety issues associated with this platform.
Therefore, the Committee recommends a reduction of $75,000,000
and directs the remaining funds to only focus on the approved
safety issues, the dual channel full authority digital engine
control system.
RQ-7 Shadow Unmanned Aerial Vehicle and OH-58 Kiowa Warrior
Modification Programs.--The RQ-7 unmanned aerial vehicle
modifications total procurement budget from previous years
through fiscal year 2018 is over $2,069,000,000. In addition,
the OH-58 Kiowa Warrior Modifications procurement budget from
previous years through fiscal year 2018 is over $2,500,000,000.
Given the scope and size of planned investments, these programs
exceed the threshold for designation as Acquisition Category
[ACAT] 1D or Major Defense Acquisition Programs [MDAPs].
Currently, both programs are classified as lower acquisition
category programs, which receive less Office of the Secretary
of Defense [OSD] oversight and require less justification
documentation than MDAPs. The Committee directs the Secretary
of Defense to designate the RQ-7 unmanned aerial vehicle and
OH-58 Kiowa Warrior programs and all of their associated
program element investments as single ACAT 1D or MDAPs as
defined under chapter 144 of title 10 of United States Code.
All provisions and reporting requirements of such chapter shall
apply to the programs, and any upgrades, improvements or
modifications to the RQ-7 or OH-58 platforms shall be reviewed
within the regulatory review process established by the
Secretary of Defense for MDAPs.
In addition, the Committee is concerned over the unlimited
modifications to existing systems which causes programs such as
Armed Aerial Scout to continually get deferred until they are
eventually terminated because the Army cannot afford to
continually modernize existing systems at the same time they
are trying to provide new capability.

Small Caliber Trace Domestic Second Source.--The Committee
is concerned about the single point failure risk associated
with small caliber traced projectiles. The Committee directs
the Secretary of the Army to conduct a study on the
requirements to establish a fully capable U.S.-based second
source for small caliber traced projectiles. The Committee
urges the Secretary of the Army to investigate the expansion of
existing facilities to maximize previous U.S. Government
investments. The Committee directs the Secretary of the Army to
provide a report and recommendations from this study to the
congressional defense committees within 90 days of enactment of
this act.

Warfighter Integrated Network-Tactical Most Economical
Rate.--The Warfighter Integrated Network-Tactical [WIN-T]
Increment 2 is currently in low-rate initial production with a
full-rate production decision anticipated in September 2013.
Over the past 2 years, the Committee has been critical of the
Army's budgeting processes and, specifically, how the Army
budgets to buy equipment based on the number of Army units to
receive that particular set of equipment for a given year.
While this seems like a reasonable budgeting approach, the
Army's tendency to dramatically fluctuate equipment purchases
year-after-year makes this strategy inefficient and
unaffordable. In the case of WIN-T, the Army plans to procure a
large amount of equipment over the next few years. Under the
Army's current procurement strategy, quantities purchased at
the individual piece of equipment level, will fluctuate year-
by-year causing unnecessary price spikes. Therefore, the
Committee directs the Army, working with the Office of the
Secretary of Defense Cost Assessment and Program Evaluation
[OSD CAPE], to perform a WIN-T business case analysis that
defines the specific equipment needs over the life of the WIN-T
Increment 2 program, and determines the most efficient and
economical buying strategy that also meets the Army's force
generation requirements. Not less than 15 days after delivery
of the President's fiscal year 2015 budget request, the Army
and OSD CAPE shall provide a briefing to the congressional
defense committees on the outcome of the WIN-T business case
analysis.
High Mobility Engineer Excavator Airborne Requirement.--The
Army requests $23,465,000 for 34 High Mobility Engineer
Excavators [HMEEs]. Four of these HMEEs are type I which means
they are C-130 and CH-47 transportable. Thirty of these HMEEs
are ``airborne'' and cost nearly twice as much as the type I.
The Army's budget request describes the HMEE airborne as ``air-
droppable in a C-17.'' For the authority to procure the HMEE
airborne, the Army uses an operational requirements document
[ORD] dated August 15, 2000, which outlines low velocity
airdrop as a threshold requirement for the HMEE airborne. The
Committee is concerned that the Army is using a requirement
document that was approved 13 years ago as justification to
procure an HMEE variant at nearly twice the cost. The Committee
directs the Joint Requirements Oversight Council review the ORD
for the HMEE type I/II for validity given changing joint
operational concepts and the current fiscal climate.
Additionally, the Committee reduces the funding to procure 30

Joint Tactical Radio System [JTRS] Manpack.--The Army
requests $323,730,000 for 3,123 Joint Tactical Radio System
[JTRS] manpack units. The Army is currently conducting a full
and open competition to award a 5-year contract to a single
vendor. The JTRS manpack industrial base consists of multiple
vendors, who have invested significantly in their manpack
products, and are competing for this contract award. The
Committee understands that the vendors who lose the 5-year JTRS
manpack contract award will likely pull out of the program.
When the Army tries to compete the next JTRS manpack contract
award in 5 years, there will likely be only one vendor left.
The future JTRS manpack program will not receive benefit from
vendor investment, innovation, or price competition. Therefore,
the Committee directs the Under Secretary of Defense for
Acquisition, Technology and Logistics to review the Army's
manpack competition and contracting plans and provide, no later
than 90 days after enactment of this act, to the congressional
defense committees an assessment of how the objectives of
increased savings and performance through competition over the
life of the JTRS manpack program will be achieved.

EA-18G Procurement.--The Navy requests $2,001,787,000 for
21 EA-18G aircraft. The Committee understands that the Navy
will procure these aircraft on a single-year contract versus a
multi-year contract vehicle. Due to this change in contract
type, the Navy budgeted for a 35-percent unit cost increase
over the fiscal year 2013 unit price. The Committee believes
this cost growth is excessive and recommends a reduction of
$175,000,000.
MQ-8 Fire Scout.--The Committee recommends $60,980,000, the
requested amount, for the MQ-8 Fire Scout. The Committee notes
a sharp decline in the quantity procured from the previous
fiscal year which results in a substantial unit cost increase.
The Navy is encouraged to pursue a more efficient production
profile and an innovative acquisition strategy to reduce unit
cost. If the Navy is able to negotiate a reasonable unit cost,
the Committee approves a buy-to-budget procurement of more than
one Fire Scout utilizing fiscal year 2014 funds.
Navy Tactical Aircraft Force Structure.--The F/A-18E/F
Super Hornet continues to be the Navy's premier carrier asset
for force projection, and it will remain the backbone of the
Navy's tactical aircraft fleet for the next 25 years. The
fiscal year 2014 budget indicates the end of domestic
production with the final procurement of EA-18G Growlers. The
Committee is concerned with the decision to end Super Hornet
production and believes a strong carrier-based fleet is vital
to the increased emphasis on the Pacific region. Due to the
delay in fielding the Navy variant of the Joint Strike Fighter,
ending the Super Hornet production prematurely creates risk in
the Navy's strike fighter force structure, and in the Nation's
production capacity and a competitive industrial base.
Therefore, the Committee recommends a $75,000,000 increase for
advance procurement of F/A-18 aircraft and expects the Navy to
procure additional aircraft in the fiscal year 2015 budget
request.
MH-60S and MH-60R Navy Helicopter.--The Committee is aware
that the Navy has identified a number of Seahawk airframe
upgrades that are currently not funded in the out-years but are
critical investments as performance requirements and weight
grow on the aircraft. The MH-60S and MH-60R have been in the
fleet since 2001 and 2006 respectively, and are expected to
remain in service as a critical battle group capability until
at least 2030. Investing in their currency and relevancy is
important for future operational effectiveness and success.
Therefore, the Committee encourages the Navy to continue
investing in improvements for these aircraft.

Amphibious-class Warship Construction.--The Committee notes
that the fiscal year 2014 budget request submitted by the Navy,
once again, failed to present a plan to address the amphibious
lift shortfall that exists today. In January 2009, the Navy and
Marine Corps determined a minimum force of 33 ships is the
limit of acceptable risk in meeting a 38-ship amphibious
warship force requirement. As of now, there are 28 ships in the
Navy's amphibious fleet, with an average of only 22 ships
operationally available at any given time due to maintenance
and overhaul schedules. This level of assumed risk with
amphibious lift capability by the Department of the Navy deeply
concerns the Committee. Of particular concern is the impact it
has on the ability of Commanders to meet operations plans and
crisis response requirements, particularly as instability in
the Middle East continues and as the Department of Defense
rebalances its global posture towards the Asia-Pacific region.
The ability to address the amphibious lift shortfall is
exacerbated when the Navy funds only one amphibious class
warship in the current 5-year Future Years Defense Program.
This lack of commitment and funding by the Navy will not only
have a negative impact on meeting future operations plans and
crisis response requirements, but it will also have a negative
industrial base impact and lead to additional cost growth in
multiple shipbuilding programs. Therefore, the Committee
directs the Secretary of the Navy to provide a more responsible
amphibious warship acquisition plan to Congress with the fiscal
year 2015 budget submission.
DDG-51 Destroyer.--The Committee understands that the DDG-
51 program has a $304,000,000 shortfall due to prior year
sequestration reductions, and recommends an additional
$100,000,000 for the DDG-51 to allow the Navy to award the
tenth DDG-51 under the current multi-year procurement contract,
as previously authorized and appropriated. The Committee
understands that its fiscal year 2014 shipbuilding
recommendations create an outyear asset for the Navy to apply
to shortfalls.
Joint High Speed Vessel.--The Committee recommends that the
Navy continue to explore missions and projects that leverage
the flexibility of the Joint High Speed Vessel [JHSV] and
extend the mission envelope beyond in-theatre transport,
including considering the addition of an unmanned aerial system
and air surveillance capability to the JHSV.

Destroyer Modernization.--The fiscal year 2014 budget
request includes $285,994,000 for continued modernization of
DDG-51 Destroyers. While the requested funding is consistent
with prior year efforts, the Committee notes that the Navy
proposes to change its Destroyer modernization strategy.
Instead of continuing with its original strategy of working
through the inventory of oldest ships, the Navy intends to
begin modernizing the newer, Flight IIA Destroyers beginning in
fiscal year 2016. The intent of the modernization program is to
increase the service life of the Destroyers and modernize their
combat capabilities. The Committee questions this revised
strategy and believes that the older Flight I and II Destroyers
should continue to be the focus of the Navy's modernization
program in order to ensure their operational readiness
throughout their projected service lives. Therefore, the
Committee recommends fully funding the modernization of DDG 60
and DDG 74 as requested, but recommends no funds for DDG 79,
the first Flight IIA Destroyer proposed for modernization.
Further, the Committee encourages the Navy to return to its
previous Destroyer modernization strategy of older ships in
future budget submissions.

Small Tactical Unmanned Aircraft System [STUAS]/RQ-21
UAS.--The fiscal year 2014 budget request includes $66,612,000
to begin full rate of production of the RQ-21 aircraft. The
Committee approves the President's request but remains
concerned about the long-term affordability of the system. In
Senate Report 112-196, the Committee indicated concern with the
lack of a capability development document, concurrency, and
lack of approval to enter production. Since then, the Marine
Corps has approved production, testing has been ongoing, and
most of the concurrency has been mitigated. To ensure future
affordability, the Committee encourages the Marine Corps to
establish a target price curve for future production lots,
continue lean manufacturing processes, and continue to identify
savings in future contract awards.

F-35 Conventional Take-off and Landing Total Quantities.--
During the Committee's hearing to review the Joint Strike
Fighter budget for fiscal year 2014, the Committee was informed
that the Air Force's planned F-35 procurement quantity of 1,763
aircraft is based on a one-for-one replacement of legacy
aircraft. While the F-35 will provide the Air Force with much
greater fifth generation fighter capability for certain future
threats, less capable aircraft may be effective and more cost-
effective to operate and maintain in other less contentious
scenarios. The Committee believes that given these times of
fiscal austerity, the Department of Defense should review the
Air Force tactical fighter force mix. The Committee directs the
Vice Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, in conjunction with
the Air Force Chief of Staff, to deliver not later than 180
days after enactment of this act, to the congressional defense
committees an analysis that outlines the appropriate total
quantity of Air Force fifth generation and less capable
aircraft based on the anticipated threat during the next 30
years.
Air Force Missile Range Support and Security.--The fiscal
year 2014 budget request includes no funds for replacement of
the previously terminated Common Vertical Lift Support Platform
[CVLSP], leaving the Committee concerned that the Air Force's
number one priority to sustain an effective nuclear deterrent
is not being sufficiently supported. As outlined by the Defense
Science Board [DSB] Standing Task Force on Nuclear Weapons
Surety, failures continue in fundamental areas, impacting the
field forces and the replacement or upgrade of old equipment.
The lack of urgency in replacing equipment following the fiscal
year 2013 CVLSP termination at the request of the Air Force
results in the reliance on outdated, inadequate, and obsolete
40-year-old UH-1N helicopters that cannot meet full mission
requirements, and operate under waivers to support crews and
logistics at the ballistic missile bases.
Replacement of these aged platforms does not require a
significant new technological development program, instead the
UH-1N shortfalls in speed, range and endurance could be
remedied through the procurement of in-service, in-production
aircraft at lower cost and less acquisition risk to the
Government. This alternative acquisition approach could compare
favorably to the continued cost of sustaining the UH-1N, while
providing significantly enhanced performance and mission
capability. Therefore, the Committee believes the Department of
Defense through the Air Force should leverage existing
production capacity and submit a program for the replacement of
UH-1N fleet in the fiscal year 2015 budget submission.
C-130 Modernization.--The Committee notes the Air Force's
initiatives to reduce fuel consumption across its fleet,
including flight and durability tests of propulsion upgrades to
the legacy C-130 fleet. In the fiscal year 2014 budget request,
the Air Force requested, and the Committee approved, multiyear
procurement authority for new C-130J aircraft. However, since
the Air Force plans to operate over 200 legacy C-130H aircraft
until the year 2040, the Committee urges the Air Force to
consider upgrades to these aircraft to help achieve fuel
efficiency goals, to include comprehensive propulsion upgrades.

Evolved Expendable Launch Vehicle [EELV].--The Committee
supports the Air Force strategy to control space launch costs
through efficient procurement of launch services through block
buys, while pursuing a new entrant strategy to provide
competition in space launch missions. The Committee also
recognizes that greater efficiencies by the incumbent
contractor have produced substantial cost savings in the
program.
The Committee continues to be concerned by the lack of
visibility in the funding requests to support the EELV program,
and again recommends that procurement funding be separated into
one line for EELV launch services and a separate line for EELV
launch capability and associated costs.
The Committee also directs that the Secretary of the Air
Force specifically identify such funds requested in fiscal year
2015 and future budgets to support the sole source block buy of
EELV launch services, and such funds requested to support the
competitive award of launch services among the incumbent and
any qualified new entrants.
Small Diameter Bomb.--Small Diameter Bomb II [SDB II] is a
250 pound class precision-guided air-to-ground munition used
against both fixed and moving targets at standoff range in all
weather conditions. It is a joint Air Force/Navy program with
the Air Force as the lead service. A variant of SDB I, called
the Laser SDB I, has capability against moving targets in clear
weather. SDB II has experienced past delays with testing and
its integration with the Joint Strike Fighter. A rigorous
testing schedule remains including five guided test vehicle
test flights and two live fire test flights before achieving
milestone C and Low Rate Initial Production in fiscal year
2014.
The Committee is closely monitoring SDB II and believes an
overall review of the SDB program and its capability mix is
appropriate, and directs the Secretary of the Air Force to
brief the congressional defense committees on the status of the
SDB program consistent with S. 1197, the National Defense
Authorization Act for fiscal year 2014, as reported.

MQ-1/9 Remote Split Operations.--As a result of the Air
Force force structure actions, six Air National Guard squadrons
will transition to MQ-1/9 remote split operations by fiscal
year 2020. The Committee recommends $35,700,000 to fully fund a
shortfall that the Air Force identified to the Committee for
equipment to support the standup of these Squadron Operations
Centers. The Committee directs the Secretary of the Air Force
to submit an execution plan for these additional funds no later
than 90 days after the enactment of this act. The execution
plan should include detailed plans for funding, training,
manning, and equipping all six Air National Guard squadrons.
Further, the Committee directs that training will begin for all
six squadrons in fiscal year 2014 as previously indicated by
the Air Force and expects that funding to equip the remaining
squadrons will be included in the fiscal year 2015 budget
request.

Additional Funding.--The Committee recognizes the critical
role that the DPA Title III program serves in strengthening the
U.S. defense industrial base and believes that this work is in
the national interest. Therefore, the Committee increases
funding for DPA by $25,000,000 over the budget request. The
Committee directs that the additional funding be competitively
awarded to new initiatives and priority consideration should be
given to completion of DPA projects initiated in prior years.
Furthermore, the Committee directs the Under Secretary of
Defense for Acquisition, Technology, and Logistics to inform
the congressional defense committees 30 days prior to any
obligation or expenditure of these funds.

Chemical and Biological Protective Shelters [CBPS].--The
Committee supports the National Guard's effort to acquire
critical dual use equipment. The Committee believes National
Guard and Reserve Equipment [NGRE] funds should be used to
acquire equipment identified on the NGRE Report for fiscal year
2014 Top 25 Equipment Modernization/Shortfall Category List,
such as CBPS. The CBPS is a self-contained, mobile medical unit
that is a rapidly deployable collective protection system
designed to operate in the forward battle area and for domestic
response. Previously, the Commission on National Guard and
Reserves stated that the Secretary of Defense should ensure
forces identified as rapid responders to domestic catastrophes
are ``manned, trained, and equipped to the highest levels of
readiness.'' The CBPS has been identified as a critical
shortfall item for the past 5 years and is essential to the
National Guard in support of both its national security and
homeland missions. Recent events and natural disasters
highlighted the need for a protected, mobile medical
capability. Therefore, the Committee encourages the Department
to use a portion of this funding to continue the procurement of
CBPS.
Intent of the National Guard and Reserve Equipment Account
[NGREA].--Congress established the National Guard and Reserve
Equipment Account [NGREA] in 1981 to provide the equipment
necessary to maintain the readiness of National Guard and
Reserve components. The Committee recognizes that the Active
components do not procure all of the required equipment
necessary to resource their reserve components, especially in a
time of fiscal constraint.
NGREA funding is intended to supplement the services' base
procurement appropriations, not substitute for it. The Active
components are still expected and required to fund and equip
their respective Guard and Reserve components to ensure reserve
units are at a high level of readiness should they need to be
deployed. Consistent with the total force concept, the Active
components serve as the procurement contracting authority in
support of the Guard and Reserve components.
Congress expects the Chiefs of the National Guard and
Reserve components to enhance readiness by procuring items that
the services' base appropriations do not fund. As already
established in law, NGREA funds have and should continue to be
used to procure new aircraft; major weapon systems that are
already established as a stable procurement program; equipment
support items; and modifications to rebuild, overhaul, or
refurbish existing items without expanding on the platform
capability currently supported by the Active components.
NGREA provides the needed flexibility to the Guard and
Reserve Chiefs to procure priority readiness items subject only
to the authority, direction, and control of the Secretary of
Defense. The Committee expects that the Guard and Reserve
Chiefs will continue to execute their portion of NGREA as
Congress has historically directed within the bill, and
outlined within the annual law pertaining to the NGRE account,
without prejudice to size or function of the Reserve unit
benefitting from this account.
Total Force.--The National Defense Authorization Act for
Fiscal Year 2013 established the National Commission on the
Structure of the Air Force to determine whether and how the
structure should be modified to best fulfill current and
anticipated mission requirements for the Air Force in a manner
consistent with available resources. As Congress awaits the
recommendations of the Commission, the Committee notes the
likelihood that the fleets of the Active, Guard, and Reserve
components will diverge in the coming years. As aircraft and
other equipment are increasingly operated solely by the Guard
and Reserve, the Committee directs the Active component to
continue to resource and invest in the necessary maintenance
and upgrades of these aircraft and equipment, to include
program management administration and research, development,
test, and evaluation efforts required to integrate items
procured using National Guard and Reserve Equipment funding.

RESEARCH, DEVELOPMENT, TEST AND EVALUATION OVERVIEW
Alternative Energy Research.--The Committee continues to
believe in the fiscal and operational value of investing in
alternative energy research, and recommends an additional
$75,000,000 for Army, Navy and Air Force research and
development to continue research of promising alternative
energy technologies, such as renewable energies, alternative
fuels, and energy efficiencies. The Committee encourages the
services to examine opportunities to use the arbitrage of
affordable natural gas to enhance their energy usage
efficiency. Additional research is needed to improve the
efficiency and durability of technologies for advanced natural
gas engine and vehicle technologies, fuel storage, and fueling
infrastructure. Therefore, the Committee encourages the
military services to invest in natural gas vehicle and fueling
infrastructure research, development, and technology
demonstrations to address these areas.
Technology Transfer.--The Committee recognizes the
importance of transitioning technology between the Federal
Government and non-Federal organizations, academia, the
nonprofit sector, and State and local governments. Technology
transfer ensures that taxpayer investments in research and
development are used to benefit the economy and the general
public, along with promoting commercialization for small
businesses. Further, in fulfilling its responsibility to ensure
the full use of the results of the Nation's Federal investment
in research and development, the Committee encourages the
Department of Defense to place an increased focus on technology
transfer programs, which includes allocation of funds, and the
streamlining of programs and performance metrics for Federal
laboratories.
Small Business Innovative Research.--The Committee
recognizes the importance of the Small Business Innovative
Research [SBIR] program and its success in commercialization
from federally funded research and development projects. The
SBIR program creates jobs and encourages domestic small
businesses to engage in Federal research and development. The
Committee encourages the Department of Defense to place an
increased focus on considering SBIR awards to firms that employ
fewer than 50 people.
Solar Research in Dry-Dust Areas.--The Committee supports
efforts by the Department of Defense to become more energy
efficient. These efforts have demonstrated cost savings and are
an important part of the 2010 Quadrennial Defense Review and
the Department of Defense's Operational Energy Strategy.
Renewable energy, including solar, is an important part of
these efforts. Fort Bliss recently launched the largest
renewable energy project in the military's history--featuring a
20 megawatt solar farm--with the goal of Net Zero emissions on
base. The Committee believes solar initiatives are also
important for overseas operations, particularly in the Middle
East and Africa, where large amounts of energy often need to be
transported to theater and in-country supplies are unreliable.
However, dry-dust problems can prevent the optimal use of solar
energy in some areas. Therefore, the Committee urges the
Department of Defense to make research into the use of solar
energy in dry-dust regions a priority in fiscal year 2014.
FAA UAS Test Ranges.--The Committee supports the Federal
Aviation Administration's ongoing program to establish test
sites for civilian unmanned aircraft systems [UAS]. The
Committee understands that Department of Defense test ranges
are currently operating at capacity due to overwhelming demand
for UAS testing and because of continued growth in the UAS
industry. Because civilian test sites are limited, DOD sites
are serving both defense and civilian industry needs. The FAA's
program will serve to bolster testing capacity across the
industry and support this important and growing defense
capability.
National Network for Manufacturing Innovation.--The
Committee supports the administration's initiative to create
three new manufacturing institutes including two Department of
Defense-led institutes--a digital manufacturing and design
institute and a lightweight and modern metals manufacturing
institute. The two Department of Defense-led institutes, part
of the administration's larger National Network for
Manufacturing Innovation, will address the life cycle of
digital data across systems and accelerate the introduction and
use of more affordable products made with high strength-to-
weight alloys that improve performance and reduce energy
consumption. The institutes will increase domestic
manufacturing competitiveness and efficiency that is necessary
for our national defense by bringing together our Nation's
research and development, education, and training activities
for a skilled workforce and the deployment of technological
innovations in domestic production of goods.

Warfighter Information Network-Tactical [WIN-T] Increment
III.--The fiscal year 2014 budget request includes $271,284,000
for WIN-T Increment III, an increase of $92,652,000 over
amounts appropriated for fiscal year 2013, and an increase of
$195,032,000 over amounts previously programmed for fiscal year
2014. In the fiscal year 2014 budget submission, the Army has
also programmed an additional $249,608,000 over amounts
previously programmed for fiscal year 2015. The Committee
questions the fiscal soundness of adding close to $450,000,000
to this program in the next 2 fiscal years. The Committee notes
that a follow-on development contract award scheduled for
earlier this year has been delayed and that the program's
acquisition program baseline is expected to be revised later
this year. Therefore, the Committee finds this increase in
resources premature and recommends continuing the program at
fiscal year 2013 levels.
Army Network Integrated Evaluation [NIE].--The fiscal year
2014 budget request includes $193,748,000 for two Network
Integrated Evaluations [NIE], which are semi-annual assessments
and formal test events of network technologies in the context
of a military exercise. The Committee notes that to date, the
Army has conducted five such events, which include formal
development and operational tests of programs of record, as
well as informal evaluations of Government- or contractor-
provided systems in response to Army-identified capability
gaps. As confirmed in a Government Accountability Office August
2013 report assessing the NIE, the Committee is not aware of
significant successful technology transitions of the over 100
systems evaluated at the NIE to date, despite additional funds
having been provided by Congress specifically for that purpose.
The Committee further notes that the Army has not been able to
execute previously appropriated funding for the NIE and has
reprogrammed or carried-over over 90 percent of total fiscal
year 2012 and fiscal year 2013 funding. Given the fiscal
constraints the Army is facing, the Committee questions the
return on investment for NIE in its current form. Therefore,
the Committee recommends reducing the scope of the NIE,
allowing the Army and vendors to prioritize their investments
to support Army requirements.
Ground Combat Vehicle [GCV].--The fiscal year 2014 budget
request includes $592,201,000 for the Ground Combat Vehicle.
The program was restructured earlier this year using previously
appropriated funds. As part of the program's restructure, the
Army awarded two undefinitized contract actions [UCAs] in April
2013, which it plans to definitize by December 2013. The
Committee notes the historically measurable cost growth of UCAs
on development programs, as restated in the Department's 2013
annual report on the performance of the Department of Defense
acquisition system. The Army has budgeted over $140,000,000 for
these contracts in fiscal year 2014, which due to the fiscal
year 2013 funds already applied to the UCAs is excess to stated
requirements. Therefore, the Committee recommends a reduction
of $99,000,000 to the budget request for undefinitized contract
actions. In addition, the Army is planning to spend over
$470,000,000 over the next 3 fiscal years for the fabrication
of 12 GCV prototypes. While the Committee recognizes the value
of certain prototype activities during the development phase of
the program, the acquisition strategy and funding profile would
expend close to $40,000,000 per individual prototype vehicle.
Therefore, the Committee denies the $70,000,000 requested for
prototypes in fiscal year 2014. The Committee notes that none
of these adjustments affect the Government program office, nor
do they impede the Army's ability to award the GCV engineering
and manufacturing development contract in September 2014, as
planned.
Improved Military Tactical Batteries.--The Committee
continues to be concerned with the high operational and
maintenance costs, and performance issues related to the short
life of standard military vehicle batteries. The Committee
encourages the Army to continue efforts designed to capture
cost savings and performance improvements through storage and
operation of military vehicle batteries.
Prototype Integration Facility.--The Army prototype
integration facility [PIF] remains a key, award-winning
enterprise asset. The Committee notes that since 2002, the PIF
has executed in excess of $3,100,000,000 in rapid response,
quick reaction, and high-priority weapons system hardware and
services support to the warfighter. The PIF does not receive
mission or program budget funds and relies on customer funding
to execute specific weapon system program requirements. The
Committee encourages the Army to continue to support upgrades
to the PIF and to maintain the fast-response capability of the
PIF so that this unique and valuable asset will be available to
the warfighter to address current and future needs.
Engineering Systems Integration Labs.--The Committee is
aware of new technologies for the development and evaluation of
new weapon systems that can reduce costs and serve as an
effective platform for integrating advanced technology into a
weapon system. The use of Engineering Systems Integration Labs
[ESILs] has already proven valuable where they have been
utilized. The Committee urges the Army, in conjunction with
industry, to implement ESILs for all major weapon systems,
including legacy systems modernization programs.
Cybersecurity of Space Assets.--The Committee understands
it is an Army priority to augment its capability for
cybersecurity research on net-centric embedded weapon systems
and to research and evaluate technologies for space-based and
cyberspace applications for Army tactical ground forces. The
Army's strategic forces mission requirements include
maintaining Army force modernization in space. The Committee
encourages the Army to apply the appropriate resources to
ensure cyberspace technologies research for the security of
space assets, which in turn ensures our warfighters can receive
critical information in a battlefield environment. Leveraging
existing personnel and recently acquired technology development
management programs can provide services such as mitigation
strategies to agencies that develop, acquire, and maintain
space and net-centric weapons assets, to include the Missile
Defense Agency.
Warfighter Helmets.--The high prevalence of warfighters
returning from theater with short- and long-term brain injury
is indicative of Traumatic Brain Injury [TBI], and is a major
concern to the Committee. The Committee is aware of the
physical, emotional, psychological, social, and financial cost
associated with these type injuries. Therefore, the Committee
urges the Army Research Laboratory, in partnership with public
universities across the country, to leverage commercially
available technology for improved soldier-worn equipment,
particularly, pneumatic cushioning systems in military combat
helmets, to protect the health and safety of the warfighter.
Wireless Medical Technology.--The Committee supports
initiatives to improve casualty care of personnel through the
development of wireless medical monitoring systems with
enhanced data collection capabilities out to the point of
wounding. The Committee encourages the Army to utilize these
wireless medical technologies in demonstrations, operational
evaluations, and deployments in order to provide greater
patient care.

------------------------------------------------------------------------
Next Generation Jammer.--Senate Report 112-196 directed the
Government Accountability Office to conduct a review of the
program to determine if there are redundancies across the
services and assess whether this effort should become a joint
service solution. The report is almost complete, and based on
the current recommendation, the Committee recommends the JROC
validate the requirements for this capability and determine
which DOD aircraft should carry this jammer. In addition, the
current acquisition strategy selects one contractor for the
program's Technology Development phase. The Committee is
concerned that this approach is inconsistent with some of the
basic tenets of the Weapon System Acquisition Reform Act of
2009, including those that encourage competition throughout the
acquisition life cycle, and directs the Navy to maintain
competition through the Next Generation Jammer program's
technology development phase. In addition, the Navy should
ensure that it acquires the necessary technical data rights and
allows for the type of open systems architecture approach that
would facilitate continued competition for the remainder of the
Next Generation Jammer acquisition program.
Navy Unmanned Combat Air System.--The Committee commends
the Navy on the historic launch and arrested landing of the X-
47B unmanned combat air system [UCAS] onboard an aircraft
carrier, which demonstrated an autonomous unmanned aircraft can
be safely integrated into Navy carrier operations. The Navy
plans to retire the aircraft at the end of the fiscal year,
after investing more than $1,500,000,000 in technology
development. However, the Committee is concerned that the Navy
plans to retire the aircraft prior to completing additional
risk reduction testing. Therefore, prior to retiring the
aircraft, the Committee directs the Navy to evaluate if the
Navy UCAS-D program can be used for additional risk reduction
activities to minimize ship integration challenges for the
future UCLASS program.
Advanced Hawkeye.--The fiscal year 2014 request includes
$152,041,000 for new technology development. A majority of the
request is to develop an in-flight refueling capability and
future, undefined capabilities. The contract award for the in-
flight refueling capability schedule was delayed by 6 months,
and the future development effort lacks clear requirements and
definition. As a result, the Committee recommends a reduction
of $28,000,000.
Air and Missile Defense Radar.--The fiscal year 2014
request includes $275,871,000 to continue the engineering and
manufacturing development phase. The Navy originally planned to
award the contract and down select to a single manufacturer in
November 2012 which was subsequently delayed to July 2013. As a
result of the delay, a majority of the fiscal year 2013 funding
will be awarded later than planned. Therefore, the Committee
recommends a reduction of $87,000,000.
Offensive Anti-Surface Warfare Weapon Development.--The
budget request includes $135,985,000 to begin development of a
new Navy anti-ship weapon. Over the last year, the Navy has
made several adjustments to the long range plan for this
program. As a result of the uncertainty, and until the Navy has
determined the exact requirements for this program, the
Committee recommends a reduction of $30,000,000.
Virginia Payload Module.--The Fiscal Year 2013 Defense
Appropriations Act reduced the fiscal year 2013 budget request
for the Virginia Payload Module by $90,000,000. The Committees
was concerned with increasing the Virginia-class submarine size
by a third to accommodate a 93.7 foot module in the submarine's
center. The Committee believes that the module's requirements
are not defined, and will result in instability to a proven
submarine design, disrupt a stable production line, and add
significant cost risk which is not affordable in these
difficult fiscal times. Initial cost estimates for development
alone were $800,000,000. Since then, the Navy has completed the
requirements validation, but the Joint Requirements Oversight
Committee validation is still incomplete. The Committee
recommends no funding for the Virginia Payload Module in fiscal
year 2014.
LHA 8 Amphibious Assault Ship.--The fiscal year 2014 budget
request includes $19,967,000 for LHA 8 amphibious assault ship
preliminary design efforts. The Committee is aware that the
Department of the Navy plans to reintroduce a well deck and
optimize the aviation capability of LHA 8, which is planned for
initial procurement funding in fiscal year 2015. As described
in the Senate report accompanying S. 1197, the National Defense
Act for Fiscal Year 2014, as reported, previous Navy efforts to
start ship construction prior to completing a ship's design
inevitably led to cost growth and schedule delays. Considering
growing fiscal pressure on the national defense budget and
increasing amphibious assault ship demands from combatant
commanders for contingency operations, theater security
cooperation, humanitarian assistance, and conventional
deterrence missions, the Committee believes it is essential
that LHA 8 be introduced in the most cost-effective manner.
Therefore, the Committee includes an additional $50,000,000 for
LHA 8 advance planning and design and directs the Department of
the Navy to work with industry to identify affordability and
producibility strategies that will lead to more efficient
construction of a large deck amphibious assault ship.
Ship Self Defense [SEWIP Block III].--The fiscal year 2014
request includes $164,799,000 to develop advanced technology
for the AN/SLQ-32 radar. The Block III acquisition strategy for
developing this new capability has shifted from beginning in
early fiscal year 2013 to mid-fiscal year 2014. Therefore, the
Committee recommends a reduction of $50,000,000.
Multi-Mission Maritime Aircraft.--The Navy requested
$317,358,000 to continue ``basic'' development, as well as
develop two separate software and hardware upgrades. Senate
Report 112-196 directed the Joint Requirements Oversight
Counsel [JROC] to validate the additional capabilities, which
is still incomplete. In addition to the requested modernization
efforts, the program has identified numerous corrections of
deficiencies in the existing system. Therefore, the Committee
recommends a reduction of $77,000,000 to the second increment
of development due to undefined requirements and significant
concurrency with ongoing development efforts. The Committee
also directs the JROC to validate the additional capabilities
and the Cost Assessment and Program Evaluation office to
conduct a business case analysis to determine whether this 6-
year development effort is affordable and provide the
assessment to the congressional defense committees.
Carrier Onboard Delivery [COD] Follow On.--The budget
request includes $2,460,000 to conduct an analysis of
alternatives for the program that will follow the COD. In an
effort to ensure the program has an affordable acquisition
strategy, the Committee directs the Navy to provide the
acquisition strategy to the congressional defense committees
prior to beginning the technology development phase.
F-18 Engine Upgrades.--The Committee understands that in
order to enable the future capabilities envisioned in the F/A-
18 and EA-18G aircraft growth roadmap or ``flight plan,'' the
Navy is considering the development of an F-414 engine upgrade.
The enhanced durability engine is a modular upgrade that will
provide options for additional power for future capabilities
which should make the engine more affordable and maintainable.
The Committee encourages the Navy to begin development of the
engine upgrade to support the capabilities envisioned in the
EA-18G and F/A-18E/F flight plans.
Marine Personnel Carrier [MPC].--The fiscal year 2014
request includes $20,875,000 to begin developing a survivable
and mobile platform to transport Marines when ashore. However,
the Marine Corps has subsequently decided to cancel this effort
due to affordability challenges. Consistent with S. 1197, the
National Defense Authorization Act for fiscal year 2014, as
reported, the Committee recommends reducing the budget request
by $20,875,000.
RQ-4 Triton UAV.--The fiscal year 2014 budget request
includes $375,235,000 to continue development of the RQ-4
Triton UAV program. Since last year, the program has
experienced a 2-year delay in development and added
$312,000,000 across fiscal year 2014 and 2015. The Committee is
concerned with this cost growth and similarities experienced in
the Air Force Global Hawk program. As a result, the Committee
directs the Government Accountability Office to do a thorough
review of the remaining tasks associated with completing
development, to determine if the risks are being repeated
across the two aircraft, and to provide a report to the defense
committees within 120 days after enactment of this act.
Defense Research Sciences.--The Committee encourages the
Department to continue to invest in advanced science and
technology research. Examples of research include high
temperature-resistant and other high performance materials,
advanced structural systems for next generation aircraft, and
other aerospace weapon systems. In addition, the Committee
encourages the Department to invest in functional polymeric
silicon materials for advanced energy storage, photovoltaic,
and electronic applications.
Power Generation and Storage.--The Committee encourages the
Department to continue development in power generation and
energy storage research, especially to improve the safety of
advanced batteries. The Committee notes that development and
deployment of Li-ion batteries with up to three times the
performance capability of other battery products are critical
to current and future DOD missions, but safety incidents have
hindered or even halted their widespread operational adoption.
As such, development and qualification of technologies to
reduce the risk of thermal runaway in Li-ion batteries should
be a priority for energy storage research.
Arctic Deep Water Basing.--The Committee commends the
Department's efforts to investigate potential security and
resource issues related to the opening of Arctic sea-routes.
The Committee encourages the Department to continue researching
a range of solutions and response, including Arctic forward
basing proposals. The Committee requests the Department to
provide a report to the congressional defense committees on
current and future programs related to Arctic security
solutions and provide an analysis of procurement and costs
related to both fixed and mobile Arctic basing options.
Flight Deck Cleaning.--The Committee is concerned with the
lack of efficiency, high-cost and environmental consequences of
the current method of cleaning flight decks on Navy ships.
Modern technology may provide opportunities for improving the
current process by reducing required manpower, decreasing
clean-time and mitigating environmental impacts thereby
improving operational readiness. Therefore, the Committee
encourages the Navy to continue to invest in more efficient and
effective methods for cleaning Navy flight decks.

Operationally Responsive Space.--The Department of Defense
Appropriations Act, 2013, provided $105,000,000 for
continuation of the Operationally Responsive Space program, in
accordance with the Fiscal Year 2013 National Defense
Authorization Act [NDAA]. The Air Force proposed to acquire a
low-cost weather satellite, which would leverage prior
investments in bus and sensor programs, which the Committee
supported.
However, this plan has not been approved by the Department
of Defense despite the identification of a key requirements gap
in weather data collection. The failure to provide a path
forward for the Operationally Responsive Space program stands
in stark contrast to the congressional rejection of the fiscal
year 2013 proposal to terminate the program.
The Committee finds that the Operationally Responsive Space
program is an important pathfinder to fielding future satellite
capabilities at an affordable cost. The Committee directs the
Secretary of the Air Force to provide the congressional defense
committees with a report describing the plans for executing the
available funding consistent with the mandates of the
Department of Defense Appropriations Act, 2013 and the Fiscal
Year 2013 NDAA within 30 days after enactment of this act.
Family of Advanced Beyond-Line-of-Sight Terminals [FAB-
T].--The Air Force has adopted a competitive acquisition
strategy for the final development and procurement of FAB-T
systems. The key event in this acquisition will be a source
selection between two terminal solutions in early fiscal year
2014.
The Committee supports competitive acquisition strategies
to provide best value to the Government and has supported the
necessary funds for development of both FAB-T systems. However,
the Committee is concerned that there is not adequate
visibility on several aspects of the acquisition strategy,
including requirements definition and the basis for evaluation
of two technologies at different states of maturity.
Therefore, the Committee recommends a reduction of
$45,000,000 from Research, Development, Test and Evaluation,
Air Force, and $45,000,000 from Other Procurement, Air Force.
Combat Rescue Helicopter.--For fiscal year 2014, the Air
Force requests $393,558,000 to begin the engineering,
manufacturing, and development phase of the combat rescue
helicopter. The Committee recommends $201,558,000, a reduction
of $192,000,000, due to a delay in contract award. The
Committee fully supports this mission but believes replacement
of the existing HH-60G fleet can be accomplished in a less
costly manner.
Of the amount the Air Force requests in fiscal year 2014,
$245,000,000 is budgeted to buy two commercially available
helicopters, as well as procuring and integrating the mission
equipment. The Committee strongly believes that paying
$122,500,000 for an in-production helicopter, even with
integrated mission equipment, is excessive. Further, the Air
Force plans to spend nearly $1,400,000,000 for development and
test of nine helicopters followed by a procurement program that
currently shows an average procurement unit cost of $81,000,000
per helicopter. In the current fiscal environment, the
Department should be seeking innovative ways to recapitalize
the HH-60 fleet with platforms having affordable unit costs.
In the fiscal year 2011 Senate appropriations report 111-
295, this Committee zeroed out funding for the HH-60
Recapitalization program and expressed concern that the Air
Force's plan could produce results similar to the wasted
$200,000,000 spent on the Combat Search and Rescue-X program.
The Committee is concerned that the Air Force may be heading
down the same path and wants to fully understand the cost of
all mission and acquisition alternatives. Therefore, the
Committee directs the Office of the Secretary of Defense, Cost
Assessment and Program Evaluation to provide, not later than 90
days after enactment of this act, a briefing to the
congressional defense committees on a business case analysis of
the combat rescue helicopter. This analysis shall examine the
cost of all mission alternatives in addition to alternative
acquisition strategies to include utilizing existing contract
vehicles and post production modifications.
Logistics Information Technology.--The Air Force requests
$95,238,000 to remediate and modernize legacy logistics
information technology systems to meet the 2017 auditability
mandate as well as pursue transformational initiatives that
will eventually replace the legacy systems. The Committee fully
supports the Air Force's efforts to remediate and modernize
legacy systems to meet the 2017 mandate--but questions the
timing of pursuing transformational initiatives.
After spending $1,030,000,000 over several years to replace
the legacy logistics systems with the expeditionary combat
support system [ECSS], the Air Force terminated ECSS because an
additional $1,100,000,000 was needed to field 25 percent of the
original ECSS capability. As a potential root cause of the
failure to deliver ECSS, the Air Force sites ``lack of
enterprise resource planning [ERP] program management skills
within government.'' Given this assessment, the Committee
believes the Air Force should focus their skilled program
managers on projects that help the Air Force achieve
auditability in 2017 rather than on efforts that deliver much
later. Therefore, the Committee denies the request to begin
transformational initiatives and reduces logistics information
technology by $34,760,000.
High Capacity Optical Wireless Communications for Remotely
Piloted Vehicles.--The Committee supports Air Force development
of secure, high-bandwidth communications technologies for
assured communications networks and covertness in tactical
environments, including free-space optical technology.
Recognizing the military's increasing reliance on tactical and
intelligence data from remotely piloted air vehicles, and that
transmission capacity is already limited by radio frequency
spectrum and bandwidth, the Air Force is encouraged to continue
development and demonstration of next generation free-space
optical communications for remotely piloted air vehicles.
Engine Sensor Technology Research.--The Committee is aware
that ongoing research regarding dynamic engine sensors for
military aircraft may increase safety and decrease operation
and sustainment costs if the technology is fully matured. The
Committee encourages the Department to continue to support
innovative research on engine sensor technology with the goal
of improving performance, safety, and fuel efficiency.
Ground Based Radar Technologies.--The Committee understands
that the Air Force, Marine Corps, and the Army are each
considering the procurement of new ground radar solutions. The
Committee applauds the Marine Corps for pursuing a flexible,
multi-mission radar. Given the fiscally constrained budgetary
environment, the Committee encourages the Department of Defense
to carefully examine the services' ground-based radar
acquisition strategies to ensure procurement of the most
affordable and most efficient solution that meets the
warfighter requirements. The Committee believes the Department
should consider leveraging available technology and focus on
efficiency and affordability to potentially lower lifecycle
costs, accelerate deployment schedules, and reduce programmatic
risk.
Human Optimization of Autonomous Systems.--Unmanned Aerial
Systems have rapidly advanced to become invaluable to national
defense. The Committee praises the Air Force for its forward
leaning approach to evolving this technology as requirements
change and the threat adapts. Autonomous systems, the next
stage in that evolution, will demand testing and evaluation
systems and procedures that are developed solely for their
unique requirements. The Committee encourages the Air Force to
invest in the development of test and evaluation capabilities
for autonomy based systems.
Sensors Research by Air Force Minority Leaders Program.--
The Committee encourages the Air Force Research Laboratory to
carry out sensors research activities conducted by the Air
Force Minority Leaders Program for research in the disciplines
of materials and processing, sensors, and related enabling
academic specialties, and to meet critical defense
capabilities, science and technology, future workforce, and
technical program objectives for the Air Force.
Aerospace Propulsion.--The Committee is aware that ongoing
research regarding dynamic engine sensors for military aircraft
may increase safety and decrease operation and sustainment
costs if the technology is fully matured. The Committee
encourages the Department to continue to support innovative
research on engine sensor technology with the goal of improving
performance, safety, and fuel efficiency.
MQ-1 and MQ-9 Sense and Avoid Capability Development.--The
Committee recommendation includes $115,828,000 for enhancements
to the MQ-9 Reaper remotely piloted aircraft [RPA]. Of the
amount provided, no funds were requested by the Air Force for
development of a sense and avoid capability. The Committee
notes that the Air Force intends to base a portion of the
overall fleet of MQ-1 and MQ-9 RPAs in the United States in the
future, and that the scope of operations of any such aircraft
would substantially depend on domestic rules currently under
development by the Federal Aviation Administration.
Specifically, absent any sense and avoid capability, the MQ-1
and MQ-9 aircraft could be largely restricted to restricted
military airspace, which would greatly limit their potential
use in support of domestic authorities in the event of a
natural disaster or other domestic emergency. As a result, the
Committee encourages the Air Force to examine options for a
sense and avoid capability for MQ-1 and MQ-9 RPAs, and to
include a sense and avoid development effort in future year
budget requests.

Conventional Prompt Global Strike.--The fiscal year 2014
budget request includes $65,440,000 to continue the Prompt
Global Strike [PGS] program, a decrease from $200,383,000
appropriated in fiscal year 2013. The Committee continues to
support development of a PGS capability but recognizes the
challenges associated with hypersonic flight. For example,
after two failed flight tests, the Defense Advanced Research
Project Agency determined that critical technologies associated
with hypersonic test vehicle-2 were not mature enough to
proceed to more advanced flight testing. However, the Committee
notes the Army conducted a successful flight test of the
advanced hypersonic weapon [AHW] on November, 17, 2011.
Considering recent test outcomes and the growing possibility of
near term threats, the Committee directs the Secretary of
Defense to follow through on the stated intent of additional
fiscal year 2013 funding provided for continued planning and
completion of a second, longer range AHW flight test. Also
considering the fiscal constraints under which the Department
is operating, the Committee directs the Secretary to avoid
commitments that will cause funds to be used for design or
development efforts intended to support a significant departure
from HTV-2 or the Army's AHW payload delivery vehicle designs.
Under Vehicle Scanning Technologies.--The Committee
believes that improving under vehicle scanning technologies to
mitigate threats and improve access to military installations
should be a priority. The Committee recommends that the
Department of Defense develop and test systems for automated
under vehicle scanning to improve entry security.
Corrosion Resistance and Non-Skid Compliance.--The
Committee recommends that the Department of Defense Corrosion
Program advance Navy fuel and ballast tank corrosion monitoring
and non-skid coating compliance efforts throughout the
Department of Defense's maintenance community.
Assured Microelectronics.--The Committee understands that
the Department of Defense issued an instruction which mandates
assurance measures for all information and weapons systems that
are national security systems, mission assurance category one,
or are otherwise critical military and intelligence systems.
The Committee directs the Department to deliver a report within
180 days of the enactment of this act on the progress
implementing this assured microelectronics policy.
Lightweight Vehicle Protection.--As the Department becomes
more environmentally friendly, hybrid and electronically
powered vehicles with reduced weight allowances may require
tradeoffs in protection, payload and performance that could
place troops at risk. The Committee recommends that the
Department of Defense develop lighter weight protection systems
optimized for such vehicles.
Open Access to Federal Research.--The Committee is
concerned that despite significant Federal investments in
scientific research, public access to the published results are
limited. Improved access to cutting edge research will help
individuals and commercial enterprises more rapidly translate
research results into new products and services. To that end,
the Committee encourages the Department of Defense to continue
its actions to execute the Federal research public access
policy recommendations as outlined by the Office of Science and
Technology Policy in an effort to increase public access to
published scientific research.
Central Test and Evaluation Investment Program [CTEIP]
Range Upgrades.--The Committee is concerned with the condition
of the high speed test tracks at military test ranges. These
tracks provide significant missile and missile component
validation which can at times eliminate costly tests using air
launched vehicles. Therefore, the Committee encourages the
Department of Defense, through the Central Test and Evaluation
Investment Program, to develop ground test range upgrades that
provide low vibration Mach 3 speeds for testing of advanced
missiles and their components, launch vehicles, or other space
systems.
MISSILE DEFENSE AGENCY
Ballistic Missile Defense Technology.--The fiscal year 2014
budget request includes $309,203,000 for ballistic missile
defense technology research, an increase of $233,228,000, or
307 percent, over amounts appropriated in fiscal year 2013. The
Missile Defense Agency plans to execute these funds for six
distinct projects, each containing multiple subprojects.
However, the requested budget increase is not sustained in
future years. Therefore, to ensure appropriate oversight among
the many projects MDA plans to pursue, and to improve the
financial management of technology research funds, the
Committee transfers funds requested in fiscal year 2014 to six
separate project elements, consistent with MDA's budget
justification.
Acquisition Accountability in Development Programs.--The
fiscal year 2014 budget request includes $937,056,000 to
continue the development of multiple spirals of Aegis ballistic
missile defense [BMD] capabilities. While the Committee notes
the repeated success of the Aegis weapons system, the budget
request includes roughly $500,000,000 for the concurrent
development of Aegis BMD 4.0, Aegis BMD 5.0, and Aegis BMD 5.1.
Since 2007, MDA has obligated over $450,000,000 for development
of Aegis BMD 5.1, and the budget request for Aegis BMD 5.1 in
fiscal year 2014 is $239,000,000. Despite the significant
investment made to date in Aegis BMD 5.1 and the funding
increase requested in fiscal year 2014, MDA has not completed
an acquisition program baseline for Aegis BMD 5.1. Further, the
Government Accountability Office in its April 2013 report
identified unstable baselines as well as cost growth in the
Aegis program. Therefore, the Committee does not fully support
the increase sought for Aegis BMD 5.1, and recommends a
reduction of $27,000,000.
In addition, the fiscal year 2014 budget request includes
$418,355,000 for continued development of BMD command and
control, battle management and communications [C2BMC]. The
Committee fully supports the continued development of C2BMC.
However, the request includes $6,903,000 for spiral 8.4 which
has been deferred by MDA, and $6,937,000 to initiate a new
spiral (8.2x) for which MDA has budgeted over $120,000,000 over
the next 5 years. Furthermore, no cost or schedule baseline for
spiral 8.2x has been established. Given the repeated
adjustments to MDA's software development program baselines in
recent years, the Committee does not find it appropriate to
establish yet another new development spiral without first
establishing cost and schedule baselines. Therefore, the
Committee recommends a reduction to the request for spiral
8.2x. The Committee notes that this does not affect the
continued development and fielding of spirals 6.4 and 8.2.
Sharing of Classified United States Ballistic Missile
Defense Information With the Russian Federation.--The Committee
is concerned with the potential security risks associated with
sharing sensitive U.S. missile defense data and technology with
the Russian Federation. The Committee recognizes existing law
restricts the sharing of sensitive and classified ballistic
missile defense information with the Russian Federation, as
cited in Public Law 112-81, the National Defense Authorization
Act for Fiscal Year 2012. The Committee expects the
administration to continue to adhere to current law, until
superseded by any provision of an act authorizing
appropriations for the Department of Defense for fiscal year
2014 relating to this issue.

Defense Logistics Agency Fair and Reasonable Pricing
Analysis.--A Department of Defense Inspector General's [DODIG]
recently published audit report titled ``Acquisition Processes
and Contract Management'' [DODIG-2013-090] determined that
Defense Logistics Agency [DLA] Aviation contracting officers
did not routinely conduct fair and reasonable pricing analysis
when purchasing spare parts. Therefore, wasteful spending
resulted from agency personnel failing to negotiate good deals
or to perform adequate oversight. The audit found that DLA
Aviation paid approximately $13,700,000 in excess of fair and
reasonable prices for 1,469 orders. This included a $10 device
for which the defense contractor charged $2,286 a piece. In
another example, DLA paid $12,467 each for metal tube
assemblies that cover aircraft engine struts. The DODIG review
concluded that the agency should have paid a unit price of
approximately $1,167.
DLA is seeking a refund of $13,700,000 from the contractor
for the issues identified in the audit. However, the audit
found that ``DLA Aviation also may have made payments in excess
of the fair and reasonable price for an additional 20 delivery
orders. If prices are not corrected, DLA Aviation will continue
to overpay on future sole-source spare parts. . . . '' The
Committee is concerned about the lack of attention given to the
review of pricing for spare parts and believes the end
customer, in this case the Air Force, needs to improve its
oversight in the process as well. A reduction has been made to
the Air Force operation and maintenance budget to account for
savings that should be realized by the Air Force increasing its
scrutiny of pricing for spare parts. Additionally, the
Committee directs the Secretary of Defense to provide a report
to the congressional defense committees no later than 90 days
after the enactment of this act that examines the safeguards
that are or have been put in place to prevent future defense
contractor overpricing.

Defense Health Program Reprogramming Procedures.--The
Committee remains concerned regarding the transfer of funds
from direct (or in-house) care to pay for contractor-provided
medical care. To limit such transfers and improve oversight
within the Defense Health Program operation and maintenance
account, the Committee includes a provision which caps the
funds available for private sector care under the TRICARE
program subject to prior approval reprogramming procedures. The
provision and accompanying report language included by the
Committee should not be interpreted by the Department as
limiting the amount of funds that may be transferred to the
direct care system from other budget activities within the
Defense Health Program. In addition, the Committee continues to
designate the funding for the direct care system as a special
interest item. Any transfer of funds from the direct (or in-
house) care budget activity into the private sector care budget
activity or any other budget activity will require the
Department of Defense to follow prior approval reprogramming
procedures.
The Committee directs the Secretary of Defense to provide
written notification to the congressional defense committees of
cumulative transfers in excess of $15,000,000 out of the
private sector care budget subactivity. The Committee further
directs the Assistant Secretary of Defense (Health Affairs) to
provide quarterly reports to the congressional defense
committees on budget execution data for all of the Defense
Health Program accounts and to adequately reflect changes to
the budget activities requested by the services in future
budget submissions.
Carryover.--For fiscal year 2014, the Committee recommends
1 percent carryover authority for the operation and maintenance
account of the Defense Health Program. The Committee directs
the Assistant Secretary of Defense (Health Affairs) to submit a
detailed spending plan for any fiscal year 2013 designated
carryover funds to the congressional defense committees not
less than 30 days prior to executing the carryover funds.
Private Sector Care Underexecution.--According to a review
by the Government Accountability Office, the Department
underexecuted its private sector care budget by $1,356,245,000
in fiscal year 2011 and $1,463,178,000 in fiscal year 2012, for
an average of 8.9 percent underexecution. The Committee notes
that the Department included a reduction of $869,381,000 in its
fiscal year 2014 budget request to account for lower than
budgeted cost growth in private sector care. However, given the
continued trend of prior-year underexecution, the Committee
believes that additional savings can be realized and recommends
a reduction of $275,000,000 to the fiscal year 2014 budget
request. The Committee urges the Department to submit future
year budgets that are more closely aligned with recent provided
care patterns.
Collaboration with the Department of Veterans Affairs.--
While the Department of Defense [DOD] and the Department of
Veterans Affairs [VA] may have different missions, they are
bound together in a mutual mission to support those who have
served in the defense of the country. Over the past several
years, collaboration between the Departments has significantly
increased and the number of joint projects and services has
expanded. The Committee applauds these efforts and believes
that future information sharing between DOD and VA must
strengthen in order to ensure a seamless transition from active
duty and timely access to VA benefits. Nowhere is this more
evident than in the transmission of service treatment records
from DOD to VA. These records are essential in the VA's process
of making accurate and timely determinations of benefits to
which a veteran may be entitled.
The Committee has been deeply concerned that while
cooperation between the two Departments has significantly
increased, delays in information sharing still plague the
system. In order to increase the oversight of this process, the
recommendation includes bill language directing the DOD
Inspector General to work in coordination with the VA Office of
the Inspector General to assess the time it takes for service
treatment records to be transmitted to VA, impediments to
providing the records in a useable electronic format, and
recommendations to streamline this process. The Committee
further directs that this report be submitted to the Committees
on Appropriations of both Houses of Congress no later than July
31, 2014.
The Committee understands that 43 percent of veterans from
the Iraq and Afghanistan wars were National Guard and Reserve
members and that Guard and Reserve records are often the most
difficult for the VA to obtain because many of these veterans
saw multiple, nonconsecutive deployments with different units.
Currently, the VA must contact multiple individual units to
collect these records. The Committee encourages the Department
of Defense to establish a central clearinghouse for Guard and
Reserve records in order to speed the transfer of these records
and avoid future anticipated backlogs.
The Committee also believes that continuing the transition
from a paper-based to an electronic system of record transfer
is imperative in assisting the VA with providing benefits to
veterans in a timely manner. The Department of Defense is
currently deploying the Health Artifact Image Management
Solution [HAIMS], which provides DOD and VA healthcare
clinicians global access and awareness of images and documents
generated during the healthcare delivery process through the
continuum of care. The Committee provides an additional
$3,600,000 in order to accelerate this initiative and directs
DOD to transmit all records electronically to the VA by the end
of 2013.
In October 2010, DOD and VA established a first-of-its-kind
partnership with the opening of the Captain James A. Lovell
Federal Health Care Center [FHCC]. This is a fully integrated
Federal healthcare facility that serves Active Duty military,
their family members, military retirees, and veterans. The
Committee continues to support the pilot program at FHCC and
believes it will produce valuable lessons that can be used to
expand future collaboration between DOD and VA hospitals as
well as produce substantial savings to the taxpayer by
combining the two healthcare systems where practical.
integrated Electronic Health Record [iEHR].--The Committee
is frustrated with the disappointing effort displayed over the
past year by the Departments of Defense and Veterans Affairs to
continue development of an integrated Electronic Health Record
[iEHR]. Five years ago, full interoperability of electronic
records was mandated by the Congress. In 2011, the Departments
decided to replace their respective existing legacy electronic
health record systems and agreed to jointly develop an
electronic health record through the Interagency Program Office
[IPO]. The original schedule estimated operating capability for
iEHR by 2017.
In February 2013, because of cost and schedule issues, both
Secretaries decided to take iEHR in a different strategic
direction: focusing on creating an interoperable system and a
subsequent integrated health record, rather than building a
single integrated core system as previously agreed. The
Committee understands both Departments believe this new
approach will result in a lower overall cost of development and
an accelerated timeline for completion. However, the Committee
remains concerned by the lack of a well articulated plan
forward and the lack of results of development to date. For
instance, the Committee has yet to receive a detailed plan,
including a timeline, benchmarks, or total cost for this major
project. The Committee strongly believes that the current
environment of fragmented and stove-piped systems is not an
acceptable option. The Departments must develop and convey to
the Committee a coherent path forward for the successful
deployment of an interoperable system and integrated electronic
health record. Further, the IPO must be more transparent
regarding day-to-day functioning, including articulating a
clear governance structure and a detailed plan to manage and
maintain accountability on behalf of both Departments. In
short, the IPO must demonstrate to the Committee that it can
produce substantial achievements and adhere to a defined plan
forward within the budget estimates.
Included in Public Law 113-6 is a prohibition on obligation
or expenditure of fiscal year 2013 funds for the development of
iEHR until the Departments submit to the Appropriations
subcommittees of jurisdiction a plan for expenditure that meets
specifically outlined requirements. The Committee recently
received and is currently reviewing the expenditure plan. Due
to the Departments' inability to obligate fiscal year 2013 iEHR
development funds and the lack of compliance with the
requirements outlined in the bill, the Committee continues to
include bill language limiting the obligation or expenditure of
funds to 25 percent for the development of iEHR in fiscal year
2014 until both Departments provide the subcommittees of
jurisdiction an expenditure plan including a long-term roadmap
for the life of the project, with annual and total spending for
each Department and quarterly milestones. The expenditure plan
should also be submitted to the Government Accountability
Office [GAO] for review.
The Committee continues to expect briefings from the IPO on
a quarterly basis providing a detailed explanation of the cost
and schedule of iEHR development, including milestones,
knowledge points, and acquisition timelines as it impacts both
Departments, as well as quarterly obligation reports. The
Committee also directs the Department of Defense to provide
written notification to the Committees on Appropriations of the
House and Senate prior to obligating any contract or
combination of contracts in excess of $5,000,000.
Finally, the Committee is troubled by the lack of
transparency the Department of Defense has shown regarding the
information used to inform the decision to change strategy on
iEHR. The Committee directs the Director of the Office of Cost
Assessment Program Evaluation [CAPE] to provide a report not
later than 90 days after enactment of this act that includes
independent cost estimates for the following: the Department's
original plan of a single, integrated electronic health record
system; the Department adopting and modernizing the VA's
Veterans Health Information Systems and Technology Architecture
[VistA]; and the Department procuring a core system other than
but interoperable with VistA.
Traumatic Brain Injury [TBI]/Psychological Health [PH].--
The Committee recommends $60,000,000 above the fiscal year 2014
budget request for continued research into treatment and
prevention of traumatic brain injuries and improved
psychological health. Traumatic brain injury [TBI] has been
identified as the signature injury of the Iraq and Afghanistan
wars, but the long-term consequences of traumatic brain injury
and the relationship between post-traumatic stress, suicide,
sexual assault, and alcohol and substance abuse are poorly
understood. The Committee supports the Department's past
research efforts into each of these individual areas but
encourages the Department to conduct research that takes a more
holistic view of these issues in order to better understand how
they are interrelated and develop more effective treatment and
prevention strategies.
The Committee directs the Assistant Secretary of Defense
(Health Affairs) to submit a report to the congressional
defense committees within 180 days of enactment of this act on
expenditure and obligation data of additional funding added by
Congress for psychological health and traumatic brain injury.
This report should include information on agreements made with
other Government agencies.
Peer Reviewed Medical Research Program.--The Committee
recommends $200,000,000 for a Peer Reviewed Medical Research
Program. The Committee directs the Secretary of Defense, in
conjunction with the Service Surgeons General, to select
medical research projects of clear scientific merit and direct
relevance to military health. Research areas considered under
this funding are restricted to: acupuncture, alcohol and
substance abuse, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, arthritis,
autism, chronic migraine and post-traumatic headache,
congenital heart disease, DNA vaccine technology for
postexposure prophylaxis, duchenne muscular dystrophy,
epilepsy, food allergies, Fragile X syndrome, gulf war illness,
inflammatory bowel disease, interstitial cystitis, lupus,
malaria, metabolic disease, multiple sclerosis,
neurofibromatosis, orthopedics, pancreatitis, Parkinson's,
polycystic kidney disease, post-traumatic osteoarthritis,
psychotropic medications, reconstructive transplantation,
respiratory health, rheumatoid arthritis, segmental bone
defects, spinal cord injury, tinnitus, tuberous sclerosis
complex, and vision research. The Committee emphasizes that the
additional funding provided under the Peer Reviewed Medical
Research Program shall be devoted only to the purposes listed
above.
The Committee remains supportive of the medical research
being conducted by the Department that yields medical
breakthroughs for servicemembers and often translates to the
civilian population, as well. Along with the basic research
that is necessary in less mature research areas, the Committee
encourages the Department to pursue advanced research and
translational research projects when appropriate. The Committee
directs the Assistant Secretary of Defense (Health Affairs) to
provide a report to the congressional defense committees within
180 days of enactment of this Act on the breakdown of funding
in the Congressionally Directed Medical Research program
between basic and advanced research.
Joint Warfighter Medical Research Program.--The Committee
recommends $100,000,000 for the Joint Warfighter Medical
Research Program. Funds shall be used to augment and accelerate
high priority Department of Defense and service medical
requirements and to continue prior year initiatives that are
close to achieving their objectives and yielding a benefit to
military medicine. These funds shall not be used for new
projects or basic research, and they shall be awarded at the
discretion of the Secretary of Defense following a review of
medical research and development gaps, as well as unfinanced
medical requirements of the services. Further, the Committee
directs the Assistant Secretary of Defense (Health Affairs) to
provide a report not later than 180 days after the enactment of
this act to the congressional defense committees, which lists
the projects that receive funding. The report should include
the funding amount awarded to each project, a thorough
description of each project's research, and the benefit the
research will provide to the Department of Defense.
Peer-Reviewed Cancer Research Programs.--The Committee
includes $120,000,000 for the peer-reviewed breast cancer
research program, $64,000,000 for the peer-reviewed prostate
cancer research program, $10,000,000 for the peer-reviewed
ovarian cancer research program, and $25,000,000 for the peer-
reviewed cancer research program that would research cancers
not addressed in the aforementioned programs currently executed
by the Department of Defense.
The funds provided in the peer-reviewed cancer research
program are directed to be used to conduct research in the
following areas: kidney cancer, melanoma, mesothelioma,
myeloproliferative disorders, and neuroblastoma.
The funds provided under the peer-reviewed cancer research
program shall be used only for the purposes listed above. The
Committee directs the Assistant Secretary of Defense (Health
Affairs) to provide a report not later than 180 days after the
enactment of this act to the congressional defense committees
on the status of the peer-reviewed cancer research program. For
each research area, the report should include the funding
amount awarded, the progress of the research, and the relevance
of the research to servicemembers.
Orthotics and Prosthetics Outcomes Research.--The Committee
understands that over the last 10 years of war, more than 1,500
servicemembers have suffered a major amputation. The vast
majority of the acute care and initial rehabilitation of these
servicemembers has occurred within the Department's Advanced
Rehabilitation Centers, which continue to provide
rehabilitative techniques and advanced prosthetic technologies
that facilitate maximum functional outcomes. While the
Committee acknowledges the Department of Defense and Department
of Veterans Affairs joint conference on the State of the Art in
Orthotics and Prosthetics in March 2010, the Committee
recognizes that too little is known about which orthotic and
prosthetic supports, treatments, and technologies generate the
best outcomes for which patients. The Committee believes that
continued research on orthotics and prosthetics outcomes can
further improve care for servicemembers with limb loss and limb
impairment and support evidence-based practice by allowing
doctors to match servicemembers and veterans with the orthotic
or prosthetic that best works for them. Therefore, the
Committee provides $10,000,000 in support of such comparative
outcomes research and directs the Assistant Secretary of
Defense (Health Affairs) to provide a report not later than 180
days after the enactment of this act to the congressional
defense committees on the peer-reviewed projects that receive
funding. The report should include the funding amount awarded
to each project and the anticipated effect on patient care.
Healthy Base Initiative.--The Committee expects that the
Department will employ a strong underpinning and binding
paradigm to ensure the Department is focused and efficient in
its transition of Healthy Base Initiative [HBI] bases from
locations of multiple, stove-piped, often redundant, and
frequently uncoordinated base-level health and community
programs--and the eventual evolution of the participating HBI
bases to ``Blue Zones.'' The current and most comprehensive
framework for this new paradigm is Total Force Fitness [TFF],
which is already embedded in the Department's doctrine.
Not later than 180 days from enactment of this act, the
Secretary of Defense shall submit a report to the congressional
defense committees that includes a plan for the comprehensive
coordination and delivery of TFF onto the existing health and
community programs of bases selected to participate in the HBI
and similar DOD programs, such as Marine Total Fitness;
Comprehensive Soldier Fitness; Sleep, Activity, and Nutrition
[SAN] program; and family resilience programs. This plan should
address how the DOD will:
--conduct assessments of the scope of TFF domains in the DOD
in order to fully understand the expanse and redundancy
of existing programs;
--evaluate the efficiency and outcomes of existing programs
against TFF metrics;
--conduct realignment of base-level resources to ensure
strong and non-redundant program coverage across each
of the TFF domains;
--coordinate activities across the remaining programs;
--educate servicemembers and their families as to proper
program access and use; and
--conduct continual program and HBI evaluation against the
selected TFF metrics. The Committee encourages the
Department to seek the assistance of expert civilian
and military groups with experience in TFF and whole
systems/whole person integration.
The Committee strongly believes that such an approach to
base-level asset and program management will ensure a strong
and vibrant military community and transition bases into ``Blue
Zones'' of health, wellbeing, and resilience. Accordingly, the
Committee provides $3,000,000 in Operation and Maintenance,
Defense-Wide to expand the Healthy Base Initiative.
Reconstructive Transplantation.--The Committee recognizes
that the science and execution of complex transplants is at a
critical juncture. Transplantation is an important alternative
to prosthetics that restores function and sensation to the
recipient, and the Department has focused its research funding
in this area on the prevention of immune rejection, clinical
monitoring of transplant recipients, and standardization of
processes and protocols. The Committee supports continued
research into reconstructive transplantation in order to
achieve life-changing results for servicemembers and civilians
alike.
Prescription Effectiveness of Psychotropic Medications.--
The Committee supports the Department's efforts to treat
patients diagnosed with behavioral health disorders and
believes that recent efforts to use database-supported methods
in order to increase the accuracy and effectiveness of
prescription practices for mental health medications may not
only achieve cost savings but also improve patient care. The
Committee encourages the Department to continue these efforts
and looks forward to receiving an update once interim results
of this research are realized at the end of this calendar year.
Bioscavenger Medical Countermeasures.--The Committee is
concerned about the recent use of chemical agents in the Middle
East and supports the Department's efforts to develop multiple
nerve agent bioscavengers to protect the warfighter against
chemical nerve agent exposure. The Committee looks forward to
further advancement of this technology and encourages the
Department to consider scalability, productivity, and cost
effectiveness in its development.
Global Health Engagements.--The Department's global health
engagements support combatant commanders' efforts to build the
capacity of partner nations, manage and respond to local health
challenges, and promote regional stability by increasing access
to basic health services. The Committee encourages the
Assistant Secretary of Defense (Health Affairs), in
collaboration with the Uniformed Services University of Health
Sciences, to establish a learning tool to assess the efficiency
and effectiveness of global health engagements in meeting
national security goals.
Trauma Clinical Research Repository.--The Committee
recognizes that trauma-related deaths impact our military
services as well as the general civilian population, and the
life-saving impact of trauma clinical research can be seen on
the battlefield and in civilian trauma response. A trauma
clinical research repository, accessible to both public and
private researchers, would provide an opportunity to make
widely available the data resulting from current and future
research that could lead to significant advances in treatment
and improved outcomes in both the military and civilian
populations. Therefore, the Committee encourages the Department
of Defense to work with other Federal agencies and the private
sector to establish a trauma clinical research repository to
share and maximize critical trauma research data.
Pain Management.--The Committee recognizes that chronic
pain disorders are increasingly prevalent among servicemembers
and commends the Department for its initial steps to leverage
investments by the National Institutes of Health in the
development of the Pain Assessment Screening Tool and Outcomes
Registry [PASTOR] for its use throughout the Military Health
System [MHS]. The Committee encourages the Department to
implement PASTOR throughout the MHS in an effort to inform the
development of evidence-based approaches to chronic pain
management.
The Committee also supports the Department's research and
implementation efforts on holistic, multidisciplinary, and
multimodal approaches in seeking alternatives to opioid
analgesics for pain management. The Army's 2010 Pain Management
Task Force Report found that acupuncture in particular has
proven valuable in reducing an overreliance on use of
medications to treat pain. Recent research has shown the
effectiveness and tremendous promise of acupuncture as a
drugless, stigma-less approach in treating pain, stress,
anxiety, insomnia, and drug addiction. Despite the evidence of
acupuncture's value within the military, it is not universally
available, and there are no standards to guide the clinical
integration of acupuncture into models of care for wounded and
ill servicemembers. The Committee encourages the Department to
research the comparative effectiveness of acupuncture and
develop a comprehensive approach to pain management through the
appropriate integration of acupuncture and other integrative
medicine approaches.
Warfighter Respiratory Health.--The Committee understands
that respiratory diseases affect more than 100,000
servicemembers each year and is concerned about respiratory
ailments among deployed and returning servicemembers. Deployed
military personnel have nearly double the rate of respiratory
symptoms than non-deployed personnel. Beyond the decreased
quality of life for affected servicemembers, respiratory
diseases result in almost 27,000 lost workdays per year
according to the Department. The Committee encourages the
Department to provide adequate resources for research on
respiratory health.
Epilepsy Research.--The Committee is concerned about the
large number of servicemembers who have sustained traumatic
brain injuries [TBI] and are at high risk for developing post-
traumatic epilepsy. As current TBI longitudinal studies have
not included epilepsy, the Committee encourages the Department
to place greater priority on longitudinal epidemiological
research, including epilepsy surveillance, to better understand
the magnitude of the problem and improve patient care and
outcomes. In addition, the Committee urges the Department to
expand research into the mechanisms by which brain injury
produces epilepsy and prevention of epilepsy in those known to
be at high risk.
Melanoma Research.--The Committee understands that melanoma
diagnoses are increasing among Active Duty servicemembers and
that melanoma is the fifth most common cancer among veterans.
Recent research suggests that exposure to high levels of solar
radiation in young adulthood is associated with a higher risk
of melanoma mortality. Given the extreme and harsh conditions
servicemembers face in theater and the rise of this aggressive
and frequently deadly form of cancer, the Committee encourages
the Department to continue its investments in melanoma
research.
DNA Vaccine Technology for Post-Exposure Prophylaxis.--The
Committee is aware the Army is seeking industry partners to
develop a capability for rapid production of polyclonal
antibody-based medical countermeasures to prevent and treat
emerging infectious diseases. The use of DNA vaccines to
stimulate the production of polyclonal antibodies in
anseriformes has shown promise, and the Committee encourages
the Army to continue its research in this area.
Medical Defense Against Infectious Disease.--The Committee
recognizes the importance of medical countermeasures to
naturally occurring infectious diseases that pose a significant
threat to the operational effectiveness of forces deployed
outside the United States. Given the Department's recent
strategic realignment toward the Asia-Pacific region and the
prevalence of infectious diseases, the Committee encourages the
Department to address diseases of military importance by
encouraging collaboration with colleges and universities that
have strong research programs in the areas of malaria,
bacterial diarrhea, and viral diseases.
Convergence Science.--The U.S. Army Medical Research and
Materiel Command [MRMC] is responsible for the research,
development, and acquisition of medical materiel for the
health, protection, and enhanced performance of military
personnel. An emerging element of MRMC's efforts to provide the
most advanced medical technology is convergence science, which
is the merging of life, physical, and engineering sciences to
provide an integrated approach for achieving advances in
medical technology. Medical technology areas characterized by
the convergence science approach are bioinformatics, synthetic
biology, tissue engineering, biomaterials, and computational
biology. This approach is at the cutting edge of technical
advances led by top engineering universities and medical
institutions. The Committee encourages the Army to continue
this important work and advance this pioneering approach to
military medical technology.

Counter-Drug Intelligence Support.--The Committee
understands that the exploitation of open source intelligence,
particularly foreign media activity, has yielded substantial
value to counter-drug efforts. These efforts have created
regional expertise in geographical areas where it is hard or
dangerous to deploy U.S. assets and have provided indications
and warnings of criminal and extremist activity. The Committee
encourages the Department to continue tracking the effect and
influence of local media outlets on civilian populations at the
national and subnational level to provide detailed knowledge of
behavioral changes by groups, governments, and organizations.
National Guard Counter-Drug Schools.--The National Guard
Counter-Drug Schools program has the unique mission of
providing combatant commands, law enforcement agencies,
community-based organizations, and military personnel with
training to support and enhance their capabilities to detect,
interdict, disrupt and curtail drug trafficking. The Committee
feels this training is of utmost importance to ensure public
safety and national security and therefore urges the Department
to reverse the funding decline that this program has
experienced in recent years.

OVERVIEW
COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATION
The Committee recommends $77,623,143,000 of additional
appropriations for overseas contingency operations in fiscal
year 2014. This funding will ensure that resources, equipment,
and supplies are available for our servicemembers without
interruption, and will enable the Department to avoid absorbing
operational costs from within baseline programs that are
critical to future readiness and home-station activities.
REPORTING REQUIREMENTS
The Committee directs that the Department of Defense
continue to report incremental contingency operations costs for
Operation Enduring Freedom on a monthly basis in the Cost of
War Execution report as required by Department of Defense
Financial Management Regulation, chapter 23, volume 12. The
Committee further directs the Department to continue providing
the Cost of War reports to the congressional defense committees
that include the following information by appropriation:
funding appropriated, funding allocated, monthly obligations,
monthly disbursements, cumulative fiscal year obligations, and
cumulative fiscal year disbursements.
The Committee expects that in order to meet unanticipated
requirements, the Department of Defense may need to transfer
funds within these appropriations accounts for purposes other
than those specified in this report. The Committee directs the
Department of Defense to follow normal prior approval
reprogramming procedures should it be necessary to transfer
funding between different appropriations accounts in this
title.
MILITARY PERSONNEL
The Committee recommends a total of $9,405,307,000 for pay,
allowances, and other personnel costs for Active, Reserve, and
Guard troops activated for duty in Afghanistan and other
contingency operations. This recommendation includes funding
for subsistence, permanent change of station travel, and
special pays including imminent danger pay, family separation
allowance, and hardship duty pay.

------------------------------------------------------------------------
Afghanistan Security Forces Fund.--The fiscal year 2014
request for the Afghanistan Security Forces Fund [ASFF] is
$7,726,727,000. This amount is a 50 percent increase from the
$5,124,167,000 funded in fiscal year 2013. Of this request,
$5,111,720,000 is for training, equipping and sustainment of
the Afghan national security forces [ANSF]. The request also
includes $2,615,000,000 for critical ``enablers.'' The critical
enablers request procures mobile strike vehicles, night vision
technology, howitzers, counter-improvised explosive device
technology for the ANSF and $1,126,900,000 for aircraft to
support the Afghanistan Air Force and the Afghan Special
Mission Wing.
In June, the Special Inspector General for Afghanistan
Reconstruction [SIGAR] issued a report raising doubts on the
Afghans' ability to fly and maintain Mi-17 aircraft for the
Afghan Special Mission Wing. The report also raised concern
over the Afghan military's ability to maintain the aircraft and
lack of Afghan pilots. In responding to the SIGAR's report, the
Department stated that the Special Mission Wing is only 1 year
old and logistics and maintenance capabilities are being
developed. The Committee is also concerned about conducting
additional business with the Russian company, Rosoboronexport,
the sole supplier of the Mi-17 helicopter. Therefore, the
Committee recommends a reduction to ASFF enablers in the amount
of $365,000,000 for the Mi-17 helicopter and maintains a
general provision prohibiting the Department from entering into
a contract with Rosoboronexport.
The Committee also recommends a reduction to ASFF enablers
in the amount of $416,800,000 for additional light air support
[LAS] aircraft. The budget request proposed funding for an
additional 20 light support aircraft for Afghanistan. The
original requirement that was outlined in 2009 identified a
need for only 20 aircraft; after several setbacks, that
contract was recently awarded by the Air Force with fiscal year
2012 funds. However, the fiscal year 2014 budget requests
funding for an additional 20 aircraft even though the
Department of Defense has not identified a requirement for more
LAS aircraft beyond the 20 that were awarded.
Recruiting and Retention of Women in Afghanistan National
Security Forces.--Of the funds provided for the Afghanistan
Security Forces Fund, the Committee directs that $15,000,000 be
directed toward the recruitment and retention of women in the
Afghan security forces. The funds should be focused on, but not
limited to, providing appropriate equipment for female security
and police forces, modification of facilities to allow for
female participation within the security and police forces and
training to include literacy training for women recruits but
also gender awareness training for male counterparts. The
Committee directs the Department of Defense to provide periodic
updates to the congressional defense committees on the efforts
to increase women participation in the Afghan armed forces.
Building Partnership Capacity [BPC] Program.--The BPC
program is an important force multiplier that enables the
United States military to build the capacity of partner nations
through the training and equipping of their counterterrorism,
counternarcotics, and counterinsurgency units. The Committee
concurs with the stated intent of the Air Force that the
indefinite delivery/indefinite quantity light air support [LAS]
contract for Afghanistan will not be used by any other nation
for future BPC program purchases. According to Air Force
testimony, the BPC program would provide a LAS capability to as
many as 27 nations. This would create a program of record in
excess of $9,500,000,000 if all other nations purchase at a
minimum the same number of planes as Afghanistan. As a result,
this program should be defined as a Major Defense Acquisition
Program [MDAP] as defined under chapter 144 of title 10 of
United States Code, with all provisions and reporting
requirements of such chapter applying to the program, and
should be reviewed within the regulatory review process
established by the Secretary of Defense for MDAPs. The
Committee directs the acquisition executive to ensure all
acquisitions under this program be in accordance with
Department of Defense regulations and procedures.
PROCUREMENT
The Committee recommends $5,171,602,000 for the procurement
accounts. The overseas contingency operations funding supports
our forces engaged in Operation Enduring Freedom and other
contingency operations. The Committee provides funding to
replace combat losses and equipment left behind in theater,
augment and upgrade equipment for deploying units, sustain
munitions and other war consumables, and reset the units
returning home to an equipment-ready status. Funding
adjustments have been made in instances where the requirement
was poorly defined, funding was requested ahead of need or
program execution has been delayed.

Saturn Arch.--The Army requests $48,000,000 to procure four
Saturn Arch aircraft. In March 2013, the Army received the
mission for the Saturn Arch program as well as eight aircraft
to complete the mission. The fiscal year 2014 budget requests
an additional four aircraft for this mission. The Committee
recommends no funds for the additional aircraft since the Army
has provided no justification for these aircraft.

JIEDDO
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Joint Improvised Explosive Device Defeat Organization.--
JIEDDO continues to support an important mission protecting our
troops from improvised explosive devices [IED]. The fiscal year
2014 request is $1,000,000,000 in overseas contingency
operations. The Committee remains concerned with lack of
justification and redundancy in the JIEDDO program. Therefore,
the Committee reduces the fiscal year 2014 request by
$128,275,000 for specific activities that have been terminated
since the budget was submitted, lack of justification, or are
duplicative of other ongoing counter-IED efforts. The Committee
concurs with S. 1197, the National Defense Authorization Act
for fiscal year 2014, as reported, in regard to training the
force; however, retains the funding in JIEDDO for fiscal year
2014. The Committee directs all future counter-IED training to
be conducted by the appropriate service. The Committee also
rescinds $59,000,000 as a result of terminated programs.
Lastly, the Committee is concerned with JIEDDO's use of
contractors. JIEDDO has 93 individual service contracts which
authorizes 2,333 contractor positions, some of which are doing
inherit government work. In addition, the committee is
concerned with the costs of the contractors. For example, the
Contractor Support Services contract is for 361 people and
costs $83,400,000, which is roughly $230,700 per position;
whereas the costs of a government civilian is approximately
$100,000 less per full-time equivalent. As a result, the
Committee recommends a 25 percent reduction or $45,000,000 to
the staff and infrastructure request.
