U.S. GOVERNMENT PRINTING OFFICE
78-608 WASHINGTON : 2002
The White House,
Washington, March 21, 2002.
Hon. J. Dennis Hastert,
Speaker of the House of Representatives,
Washington, DC.
Dear Mr. Speaker: I ask the Congress to consider
expeditiously the enclosed requests, totaling $27.1 billion,
for emergency FY 2002 supplemental appropriations. The requests
provide for emergency expenses to support the war on terrorism,
homeland security, and economic revitalization activities as
the Nation continues to recover and rebuild following the
September 11, 2001, terrorist attacks.
I hereby designate specific requests contained in the
accompanying material as emergency requirements pursuant to
section 251(b)(2)(A) of the Balanced Budget and Emergency
Deficit Control Act of 1985, as amended. By category, these
emergency requests total:
Defense: $14.0 billion
International: $1.6 billion
Homeland Security: $3.3 billion (excludes
$1.9 billion in a contingent appropriation for the
Department of Transportation)
Assistance to New York: $5.5 billion
The emergency funding requests include a total of $2.7
billion in budget authority that would be made available
contingent upon my transmittal of later budget requests to the
Congress designating the specific amounts requested as an
emergency requirement. This contingent budget authority
includes $1.9 billion allocated to the Department of
Transportation for the Transportation Security Administration
and $750.0 million allocated to the Department of Labor for
economic recovery and assistance to dislocated workers.
This transmittal also contains $240.0 million in non-
emergency requests that are fully offset by proposed
reductions.
All of the requests in this transmittal are for the purpose
of fulfilling a known and urgent FY 2002 requirement and are
unable to reasonably be met through the use of existing agency
funds.
The details of these requests are set forth in the enclosed
letter from the Director of the Office of Management and
Budget. I concur with his comments and observations.
Sincerely,
George W. Bush.
Enclosure.
[Estimate No. 5, 107th Cong., 2d Sess.]
Executive Office of the President,
Office of Management and Budget,
Washington, DC, March 20, 2002.
The President,
The White House.
Submitted for your consideration are emergency funding
requests, totaling $27.1 billion, for various Federal
Departments and agencies, as well as the Legislative and
Judicial Branches and the U.S. Postal Service. The proposals
for emergency funding would provide critical resources to
support the war on terrorism, homeland security, and economic
revitalization activities as the Nation continues to recover
and rebuild following the September 11, 2001, terrorist
attacks. Of this amount, $2.7 billion for the Departments of
Labor and Transportation would be provided on a contingent
basis.
Also included in this transmittal are non-emergency
requests for FY 2002 supplemental appropriations for the
Department of Agriculture, the Department of Veterans Affairs,
the Office of the United States Trade Representative, and the
Securities and Exchange Commission. The requests for non-
emergency resources are fully offset by reductions in the
Departments of Agriculture, Health and Human Services, Housing
and Urban Development, the Interior, and Veterans Affairs and
International Assistance Programs. In addition, this
transmittal contains language proposals for the Departments of
Commerce and Transportation.
All of the requests in this transmittal are for the purpose
of fulfilling a known and urgent FY 2002 requirement and are
unable to reasonably be met through the use of existing agency
funds.
As described below and in more detail in the enclosures,
the requests include the following:
Defense
$14.0 billion for the Department of Defense (DoD)
and the intelligence community to prosecute the global war on
terrorism for the balance of FY 2002 and to enable DoD to
fulfill other national security responsibilities. Expeditious
approval of this emergency supplemental request is critical for
the Department to continue the global war on terrorism and to
ensure the readiness of the U.S. military forces to support
this and other missions in the months ahead. The $14.0 billion
request includes:
$6.7 billion to conduct military operations;
$4.1 billion to pay reserve and national
guard personnel who are on active duty to support
military operations on a full-time basis;
$1.4 billion to fund critical command,
control, communications, and intelligence support to
military operations and classified programs including
the National Foreign Intelligence Program;
$0.5 billion to procure precision munitions,
unmanned aerial vehicles, and unique special operations
weapons;
$0.4 billion for coalition support; and
$0.9 billion for various programs critical
to the war effort (e.g., Guantanamo Bay, information
operations, and Special Operations Command
requirements).
Without the additional funds, the Department will be unable
to respond to the evolving military requirements of the global
war on terrorism and would have to curtail other operations,
cancel training, defer maintenance, and ultimately take other
drastic measures to fulfill the President's charge to combat
international terrorism aggressively. The Department has
already agreed to offset additional operational costs from
earlier supplemental funding provided for activities now judged
as lower priorities.
International
$436.0 million to support the State Department's
emergency expenses in support of the United States' efforts to
respond to, deter, or prevent acts of international terrorism.
This request would provide funding of $201.0 million for
Embassy Security, Construction and Maintenance, which includes
construction and renovation costs of the United States'
missions in Kabul and Dushanbe, as well as $20.0 million in
additional funding to reopen those missions. The request also
includes: $114.0 million for urgent counter-narcotics and law
enforcement support; $43.0 million for the Contributions
International Peacekeeping Activities account; $20.0 million
for State Department domestic security requirements; and $15.0
million for public diplomacy and exchange accounts.
$1.2 billion to support the United States
International Assistance Programs in order to deter, or prevent
acts of international terrorism. These funds would be used
immediately to strengthen the forces of our friends and allies
in the fight against terrorism, by providing vitally needed
military equipment and training and economic assistance. The
request for the Foreign Military Financing Program is $373.0
million, and the Economic Support Fund request is $525.0
million.
$7.4 million for the Broadcasting Board of
Governors to allow Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty to continue
to provide the people of Afghanistan news and information about
events within Afghanistan and the surrounding region.
Homeland Security
$4.7 billion for the Department of Transportation.
The requested funds include: $2.4 billion to implement and
operate the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) for
the remainder of FY 2002; $255.0 million for homeland security
activities for the United States Coast Guard; $19.3 million for
implementation and homeland security activities of the new
Border Enforcement Program within the Federal Motor Carrier
Safety Administration; and, $3.5 million to upgrade the current
Crisis Management Center into a new Transportation Information
Operations Center. The request includes $1.9 billion for TSA,
to be made available contingent upon your submission of a later
budget request to the Congress designating the entire amount
requested as an emergency requirement.
$327.0 million to enable the Federal Emergency
Management Agency to provide equipment and training grants to
States and localities to improve terrorism and chemical-
biological response capabilities.
$87.0 million for the U.S. Postal Service to
continue its efforts to protect employees and postal customers
from exposure to biohazardous material and to sanitize and
screen the mail for such material, making use of the most cost
effective technology possible.
$55.0 million for the General Services
Administration. Of the funds requested, $51.8 million would be
used to increase security services at Federal buildings
nationwide and for additional security equipment and $2.5
million would be used to help protect against potential
disruptions in information technology infrastructure.
$51.0 million for the Department of Justice. The
requested funds include: $35.0 million to enable the
Immigration and Naturalization Service to fully implement
increased air and sea port security initiatives; $10.0 million
for the Federal Bureau of Investigation to support a multi-
agency terrorist tracking task force; and $5.8 million for
deployment of the Automated Biometrics Identification System/
Integrated Automated Fingerprint Identification System to 30
additional ports of entry.
Other amounts include: $26.0 million for the
Department of Energy to improve emergency response assets and
for critical energy security and assurance activities; $19.3
million to the National Science Foundation to provide
additional funds for the Cybercorps/Scholarships for Service
program; $14.0 million to the Judicial Branch for perimeter
security enhancements of the Supreme Court building and grounds
and for physical security measures at Federal courthouses and
at the United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit;
$13.0 million for the Department of Commerce to begin the
Homeland Security Information Technology and Evaluation Program
and for standards development for chemical/biological/nuclear/
radioactive explosive threat detection equipment; $12.5 million
for the Environmental Protection Agency for additional expenses
incurred for anthrax investigations and cleanup actions at the
United States Capitol and Congressional office building
complex; $7.5 million for the Legislative Branch for the
Copyright Office of the Library of Congress; and $5.0 million
for the Office of Administration within the Executive Office of
the President.
Assistance to New York
$2.8 billion to enable the Federal Emergency
Management Agency to support additional disaster relief efforts
in response to the September 11th terrorist attacks.
$2.0 billion for the Department of Transportation.
Of the funds requested, $1.8 billion would be used for Capital
Investment Grants to replace, rebuild, or enhance mass
transportation systems serving the Borough of Manhattan, New
York City, New York and $167.0 million would be used for the
restoration and reconstruction of Federal-aid Highways-eligible
State and local roads in New York City damaged by the September
11th terrorist attacks.
$750.0 million for the Department of Housing and
Urban Development for Community Development Block Grants to be
provided to the Lower Manhattan Development Corporation (LMDC)
to rebuild utility infrastructure destroyed as a result of the
September 11th terrorist attacks and to assist LMDC's efforts
to rebuild Lower Manhattan.
Economic Recovery
$750.0 million for the Department of Labor to
assist dislocated workers, to be made available contingent upon
your submission of a later budget request to the Congress
designating the entire amount requested as an emergency
requirement. Of the total request, at least $550.0 million
would be available for National Emergency Grants to provide
employment and training and related assistance to dislocated
workers.
Non-emergency
$142.0 million for the Department of Veterans
Affairs (VA) to ensure that all veterans are able to enroll and
seek treatment in the VA medical system.
$75.0 million for the Department of Agriculture to
provide resources to finance rising participation in the
Special Supplemental Nutrition program for Women, Infants and
Children (WIC) and increased costs of WIC food and
administration.
$20.0 million for the Securities and Exchange
Commission to fund 100 new positions in the Division of
Enforcement to deal with financial fraud and reporting, in the
Division of Corporate Finance, and in other divisions as
necessary.
$3.3 million for Office of the United States Trade
Representative to provide payment to the European Communities
to cover a three-year period for nullification or impairment of
benefits from Section 110 (5) of the U.S. Copyright Act.
Offsets and Legislative Proposals
Proposed offsets include the following reductions:
$157.0 million in International Assistance Programs; $50.0
million in the Department of Health and Human Services; $20.0
million in the Department of Housing and Urban Development;
$10.0 million in the Department of the Interior; $9.0 million
in the Department of Agriculture; and $5.0 million in the
Department of Veterans Affairs.
Legislative proposals include no-cost language
changes for the Departments of Commerce and Transportation.
I have carefully reviewed these proposals and am satisfied
that they are necessary at this time. Therefore, I join the
heads of the affected Departments and agencies in recommending
that you transmit the proposals to the Congress. In addition, I
recommend that you designate the funds in the specified
categories of Defense, International, Homeland Security (with
the exception of $1.9 billion in a contingent appropriation for
the Department of Transportation), and Assistance to New York
as emergency funding requirements pursuant to section
251(b)(2)(A) of the Balanced Budget and Emergency Deficit
Control Act of 1985, as amended.
Sincerely,
Mitchell E. Daniels, Jr.,
Director.

LEGISLATIVE BRANCH
Library of Congress
Copyright Office
SALARIES AND EXPENSES
Under this heading in Public Law 107-68, strike
``$21,880,000'' and insert ``$14,380,000''; and strike
``$27,864,000'' and insert ``$20,364,000'': Provided, That
these amendments shall be deemed to be effective upon enactment
of Public Law 107-68: Provided further, That of the amount
provided under this heading in Public Law 107-68, $7,500,000 is
designated by the Congress as an emergency requirement pursuant
to section 251(b)(2)(A) of the Balanced Budget and Emergency
Deficit Control Act of 1985, as amended.
This request would provide $7.5 million to fund a shortfall
within the Copyright Office, Salaries and Expense account
resulting from a decrease in the level of receipts needed to
maintain operations and staff at the FY 2002 enacted level. The
decrease is due to security-related suspension of delivery of
U.S. Postal Service (USPS) mail to the Library. Two-thirds of
the Copyright Office's basic budget is funded through fees,
primarily those received for registering works. As of a result
of the mail suspension, registration applications and related
fees have been held by USPS for more than four months. With the
prospect of a reduced flow of USPS mail continuing for at least
another four or five months, the Copyright Office will most
likely have difficulty processing the backlog of fees before
the end of FY 2002. Based on actual receipts for the first four
months of fiscal year, the Copyright Office estimates FY 2002
receipts will be down by $7.5 million, from $21.5 million to
$14.0 million.
Once regular mail deliveries begin, many other factors may
prevent the Copyright Office from collecting or processing
fees, such as: checks received may no longer be valid due to
the length of time that will have passed, requiring a request
for new payment; irradiated checks may be damaged, preventing
their processing; or individuals may be withholding
registration claims pending an announcement that mail delivery
to Capitol Hill offices has fully resumed.
Without the $7.5 million in supplemental funding, copyright
services/programs will be delayed or suspended and staff will
be furloughed, jeopardizing the Library's collections and
services to Congress and the American public.
The entire amount requested has been designated by the
President as an emergency requirement pursuant to the Balanced
Budget and Emergency Deficit Control Act of 1985, as amended.

JUDICIAL BRANCH
Supreme Court of the United States
CARE OF THE BUILDINGS AND GROUNDS
For an additional amount for ``Care of the Buildings and
Grounds'' for emergency expenses for security upgrades of the

amount is designated by the Congress as an emergency
requirement pursuant to section 251(b)(2)(A) of the Balanced
Budget and Emergency Deficit Control Act of 1985, as amended.
This request would provide funding for perimeter security
enhancements of the Supreme Court building and grounds.

JUDICIAL BRANCH
United States Courts of Appeals for the Federal Circuit
SALARIES AND EXPENSES
For an additional amount for ``Salaries and Expenses'' for
emergency expenses for security upgrades, $857,000: Provided,
That the entire amount is designated by the Congress as an
emergency requirement pursuant to section 251(b)(2)(A) of the
Balanced Budget and Emergency Deficit Control Act of 1985, as
amended.
This proposal would provide funding for security
enhancements at the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal
Circuit.
The entire amount requested has been designated by the
President as an emergency requirement pursuant to the Balanced
Budget and Emergency Deficit Control Act of 1985, as amended.
------
JUDICIAL BRANCH
Courts of Appeals, District Courts, and Other Judicial services
SALARIES AND EXPENSES
For an additional amount for ``Salaries and Expenses'' for
emergency expenses to provide protective window film and other
physical security measures, $3,143,000: Provided, That the
entire amount is designated by the Congress as an emergency
requirement pursuant to section 251(b)(2)(A) of the Balanced
Budget and Emergency Deficit Control Act of 1985, as amended.
This proposal would fund the installation of protective
window film and other physical security measures at Federal
courthouses trying terrorism-related cases in Boston,
Massachusetts and Alexandria, Virginia.
The entire amount requested has been designated by the
President as an emergency requirement pursuant to the Balanced
Budget and Emergency Deficit Control Act of 1985, as amended.

DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE
Food and Nutrition Service
SPECIAL SUPPLEMENTAL NUTRITION PROGRAM FOR WOMEN, INFANTS, AND CHILDREN
(WIC)
For an additional amount for ``Special Supplemental
Nutrition Program for Women, infants, and Children (WIC),''
$75,000,000, which shall be placed in reserve for use in only
such amounts, and in such manner, as the Secretary determines
necessary, notwithstanding section 17(i) of the Child Nutrition
Act.
This request would provide resources to finance rising
participation in the Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for
Women, Infants and Children (WIC) and increased costs of WIC
food and administration. The funds would be distributed in a
manner determined by the Secretary and not by the allocation
formula established by section 17(i) of the Child Nutrition
Act.

DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE
Natural Resources Conservation Service
WATERSHED REHABILITATION PROGRAM
Of the funds provided under this heading in Public Law 107-
76, $9,000,000 is hereby canceled.
The Watershed Rehabilitation Program is a new program in FY
2002, which received $10 million in first-year funding. The
Administration has proposed no additional funding for FY 2003.
This proposal would cancel $9 million appropriated in FY 2002
to provide assistance to rehabilitate local, non-federally
owned aging dams. Management of these locally-owned dams is not
an appropriate Federal responsibility, and other Federal
programs with larger responsibilities for flood control do not
fund repairs or restoration of privately owned dams. Moreover,
in some cases, it is unclear whether many of these dams, using
current economic and environmental criteria, should be
maintained.

DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE
Departmental Management
SALARIES AND EXPENSES
For an additional amount for ``Salaries and Expenses'' for
emergency expenses resulting from new homeland security
activities, $400,000: Provided, That the entire amount is

to section 251(b)(2)(A) of the Balanced Budget and Emergency
Deficit Control Act of 1985, as amended.
This request would provide $400,000 for increased guard and
protection services.
The entire amount requested has been designated by the
President as an emergency requirement pursuant to the Balanced

For an additional amount for ``Operations and
Administration'' for emergency expenses resulting from new

entire amount is designated by the Congress as an emergency
requirement pursuant to section 251(b)(2)(A) of the Balanced
Budget and Emergency Deficit Control Act of 1985, as amended.
This proposed funding would be used to begin the Homeland
Security Information Technology and Evaluation Program.
Existing and planned Federal programs that collect and
distribute information valuable to improve homeland security
will be assessed and recommendations made to ensure information
sharing of relevant homeland security information at all levels
of government. The Critical Infrastructure Assurance Office
will administer the program and work in consultation with the
Office of Homeland Security and the Office of Management and
Budget to ensure consistency with the Administration's homeland
security policy. This proposal provides FY 2002 funding for the
program, for which funding was also requested in the
President's 2003 Budget.
The entire amount requested has been designated by the
President as an emergency requirement pursuant to the Balanced
Budget and Emergency Deficit Control Act of 1985, as amended.

FISHERIES FINANCE PROGRAM ACCOUNT
Funds provided under the heading, ``Fisheries Finance
Program Account,'' National Oceanic and Atmospheric
Administration, Department of Commerce, for the direct loan
program authorized by the Merchant Marine Act of 1936, as
amended, are available to subsidize gross obligations for the
principal amount of direct loans not to exceed $5,000,000 for
Individual Fishing Quota loans, and not to exceed $19,000,000
for Traditional loans.
P.L. 107-77, the Departments of Commerce, Justice, State,
the Judiciary, and Related Agencies Appropriations Act, 2002,
provided $287,000 in subsidy amounts for the National Oceanic
and Atmospheric Administration's (NOAA) fisheries finance
program but did not provide loan levels for the different loan
programs, as required by the Federal Credit Reform Act. The
proposed language is necessary in order for NOAA to disburse
loans and does not affect budget authority levels.

DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE
National Institute of Standards and Technology
SCIENTIFIC AND TECHNICAL RESEARCH SERVICES
For an additional amount for ``Scientific and Technical
Research and Services'' for emergency expenses resulting from
new homeland security activities and increased security
requirements, $4,000,000: Provided, That the entire amount is
designated by the Congress as an emergency requirement pursuant
to section 251(b)(2)(A) of the Balanced Budget and Emergency
Deficit Control Act of 1985, as amended.
This request would provide funding for standards
development for chemical/biological/nuclear/radioactive
explosive threat detection equipment and biomedical recognition
equipment to support homeland security activities. This funding
would also strengthen security and surveillance at the National
Institute of Standards and Technology cold neutron reactor.
The entire amount requested has been designated by the
President as an emergency requirement pursuant to the Balanced
Budget and Emergency Deficit Control Act of 1985, as amended.

DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE
Military Personnel
MILITARY PERSONNEL, AIR FORCE
For an additional amount for ``Military Personnel, Air
Force,'' $206,000,000: Provided, That the entire amount is
designated by the Congress as an emergency requirement pursuant
to section 251(b)(2)(A) of the Balanced Budget and Emergency
Deficit Control Act of 1985, as amended.
This request would provide $206 million for the Air Force.
The Air Force plans to achieve its budgeted end strength of
358,800. DoD needs to be at full strength in order to prosecute
the war successfully. Maintaining full strength throughout the
year will generate must-pay personnel costs. The Air Force
implemented a stop loss program in the fall to ensure that
there was sufficient manpower, especially in critical skill
specialties, to effectively prosecute the U.S. global war on
terrorism. Without this funding, the Air Force will be
requested to curtail promotions, decrease accessions, and
constrain personnel relocations.
The entire amount requested has been designated by the
President as an emergency requirement pursuant to the Balanced
Budget and Emergency Deficit Control Act of 1985, as amended.

DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE
Operation and Maintenance
DEFENSE EMERGENCY RESPONSE FUND
(INCLUDING TRANSFER OF FUNDS)
For an additional amount for the ``Defense Emergency
Response Fund,' $11,300,000,000, of which $77,900,000 shall be
available for enhancements to North American Air Defense
Command capabilities: Provided, That the entire amount is
designated by the Congress as an emergency requirement pursuant
to section 251(b)(2)(A) of the Balanced Budget and Emergency
Deficit Control Act of 1985, as amended: Provided further, That
the Secretary of Defense may transfer the funds provided herein
only to appropriations for military personnel; operation and
maintenance; procurement; research, development, test and
evaluation; military construction; the Defense Health Program;
and working capital funds: Provided further, That the funds
transferred shall be merged with and shall be available for the
same purposes and for the same time period as the appropriation
to which transferred: Provided further, That the transfer
authority provided in this paragraph is in addition to any
other transfer authority available to the Department of
Defense: Provided further, That upon determination that all or
part of the funds transferred from this appropriation are not
necessary for the purposes provided herein, such amounts may be
transferred back to this appropriation.
This request would fund the incremental costs to sustain
the U.S. global war on terrorism at the current pace, with six-
month intervals of rotation of most deployed forces, and is
based on current deployment orders approved through February
2002. The funds would cover the continued support for
``Operation Enduring Freedom'' to root out terrorists worldwide
($6.7 billion) and ``Operation Noble Eagle'' to provide for the
combat air patrols (CAPs) that are prepared at all times to
protect the airspace over the United States ($300.0 million).
The funds requested for CAPs include $77.9 million to finance
radio and communications improvements for NORAD. Included in
the deployment order costs are: the incremental costs for
logistics, airlift, and sealift; other transportation within
theater; in-theater support for all deployed forces, including
logistics; consumables and spare parts; incremental air and
ground OPTEMPO (flying hours and tank miles); additional
steaming days; equipment maintenance; per diem of deployed
personnel; rotational travel; leased communications;
intelligence activities and support; and equipment
reconstitution.
Also included in this request are funds for associated
military personnel costs, including Imminent Danger Pay, Family
Separation Allowance, Foreign Duty Pay, Special Pays, Basic
Allowance for Subsistence for enlisted personnel, Reserve
Component pay and allowances, including health care costs, and
subsistence-in-kind for mobilized personnel and volunteers on
active duty ($4.1 billion). In addition, the request would
finance the costs related to processing and maintaining
detainees at Guantanamo Naval Air Station ($75.0 million), fuel
increases ($75.0 million), the Joint Task Force for Homeland
Defense ($10.0 million), the imagery products necessary for
immediate warfighting needs ($15.0 million), and the
continuation of information operations for the Joint Task Force
($6.0 million). Funds requested for the DERF in this
supplemental would be transferred to DoD component
appropriations to allow execution to occur through the normal
appropriations structure of the Military Departments and
Defense Agencies, and the normal accounting and reporting
mechanisms will be employed. The use of a transfer account is
needed due to the dynamic nature of these operations, and
appropriating the funding in the DERF, with its own transfer
authority, provides the flexibility needed to allocate funding
to those Components that are actually incurring costs due to
the unpredictable scope, duration, and intensity of these
military operations. Costs of the war on terrorism will be
tracked separately.
The entire amount requested has been designated by the
President as an emergency requirement pursuant to the Balanced
Budget and Emergency Deficit Control Act of 1985, as amended.

DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE
Operation and Maintenance
OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE, DEFENSE-WIDE
For an additional amount for ``Operation and Maintenance,
Defense-wide,'' $739,000,000, of which $420,000,000 may be
used, notwithstanding any other provision of law, for payments
to Pakistan, Jordan, and other key cooperating nations for
logistical and military support provided, or to be provided, to
United States military operations in connection with the Global
War on Terrorism: Provided, That such payments may be made in
such amounts as the Secretary may determine in his discretion,
in consultation with the Director of the Office of Management
and Budget and upon notification to the appropriate
Congressional committees, and such determination is final and
conclusive upon the accounting officers of the United States:
Provided further, That amounts for such payments shall be in

support to U.S. military operations in connection with the
global war on terrorism ($420.0 million). In addition, this
request also includes essential command, control,
communications, and intelligence capabilities in support of
Operation Enduring Freedom. Funds would be used to replace
equipment for intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance
missions, to provide critical information and communications
capabilities, and to fund surge requirements in operations
support data collection and analysis. This request also would
fund classified programs $283.6 million) and continued
operations of the White House communications systems to ensure
that President has continued communications with the Cabinet
members, the CINCs, and other senior leadership ($3.4 million).
Funding is also requested for critical information technology
requirements for Homeland Security; specifically funding is
needed for the Special Router Arrangement Service (SRAS), a
classified part of the National Communications System that
supports priority communications for the President and other
key decisionmakers to ensure continued operation of the Federal
government in a crisis ($17.0 million); an Emergency Email
Network Security ($10.0 million); and an Internet Early Warning
System Security ($5.0 million).
The entire amount requested has been designated by the
President as an emergency requirement to the Balanced Budget
and Emergency Deficit Control Act of 1985, as amended.

entire amount is designated by the Congress as an emergency
requirement pursuant to section 251(b)(2)(A) of the Balanced
Budget and Emergency Deficit Control Act of 1985, as amended.
This request would fund increased production of Joint
Direct Attack Munitions (JDAM) critical to the war on
terrorism. During Operation Enduring Freedom, the Department
expended JDAM at a faster rate than current production was
capable of replacing. By June 2002, production will be at 1,500
per month. The FY 2003 funded level will increase this rate to
2,800 per month, an increase of 1,300 (+87 percent) above the
current level. Because of the step ramp between current
production and the desired rate of 2,800 per month, additional
funding is required to provide for a more realistic and phased
production and delivery increase. Supplemental funding will
allow the JDAM production rate to increase in a more orderly
manner and provide for an increased delivery rate of 2,800 per
month by August 2003, resulting in an overall increase of
approximately 17,900 delivered during the FY 2002 funded

DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE
General Provisions
Sec. . (a) The appropriation under the heading
``Research, Development, Test and Evaluation, Navy'' in the
Department of Defense Appropriations Act, 2002 (Public Law 107-
117) is amended by adding the following proviso immediately
after ``September 30, 2003'': Provided, That funds appropriated
in this paragraph which are available for the V-22 may be used
to meet unique requirements of the Special Operations Forces''.
(b) The amendment made by subsection (a) shall be effective as
if enacted as part of the Department of Defense Appropriations
Act, 2002.
This proposal would restore language to the ``Research,
Development, Test and Evaluation, Navy'' appropriation in order
to permit these funds to be used for the unique Special
Operations Forces requirements related to the V-22.
(INCLUDING TRANSFER OF FUNDS)
Sec. . During the current fiscal year, amounts in or
credited to the Defense Cooperation Account under 10 U.S.C.
2608(b), shall be available for obligation and expenditure
consistent with the purposes for which such amounts were
contributed and accepted: Provided, That the entire amount is
designated by the Congress as an emergency requirement pursuant
to section 251(b)(2)(A) of the Balanced Budget and Emergency
Deficit Control Act of 1985, as amended: Provided further, That
such amounts shall be available for transfer by the Secretary
of Defense to such appropriations or funds of the Department of
Defense as he shall determine, and be available for the same
period as the appropriation to which transferred: Provided
further, That this transfer authority is in addition to any
other transfer authority available to the Department of
Defense: Provided further, That the Secretary of Defense shall
report to the Congress quarterly all transfers made pursuant to
this authority.
Pursuant to the statute establishing the Defense
Cooperation Account (10 U.S.C. 2608), funds in the Defense
Cooperation Account may be obligated or expended only to the
extent and in the manner provided in subsequent appropriations
Acts. This proposal would provide the necessary appropriation
for the remainder of this fiscal year.
Sec. . Funds available to the Department of Defense may
be used for the payment of rewards in accordance with
procedures and regulations established or issued by the
Secretary of Defense for information or assistance to the
Department of Defense to combat terrorism: Provided, That no
reward in excess of $250,000 may be offered or made without the
approval of the Secretary: Provided further, That the Secretary
shall notify the congressional defense committees of any
rewards in excess of $250,000 made under this section: Provided
further, That neither the failure of the Secretary to authorize
a payment nor the amount authorized shall be subject to
judicial review.
This proposal would provide that funds available to the
Department of Defense may be used to make rewards for
information or assistance to the Department to combat
terrorism. This authority parallels authority available to the
Justice Department and will enhance the ability of the
Department of Defense to obtain information and other
assistance needed to effectively prosecute the war on
terrorism. (This provision is also included in the FY 2003
President's Budget and is included here to accelerate its
availability.)
Sec. . 22 USC 5952 is amended by adding a new subsection
(e), as follows:
``(e) Waiver. The restriction contained in subsection (d)
of this section and section 502 of the Freedom Support Act
(P.L. 102-511) shall not apply if the President certifies in
writing to the Speaker of the House of Representatives and the
President pro tempore of the Senate that waiving such
restrictions is important to the national security interests of
the United States''.
The Cooperative Threat Reduction Act (22 USC 5952) requires
the President to certify that any country receiving assistance
under this act is committed to six standards, including
compliance with relevant arms control agreements and observing
internationally recognized human rights. Title V of the Freedom
Support Act (ESA) (22 USC 5952) requires the President to
certify that any country receiving assistance under this title
is committed to four standards; those are identical to the
Cooperative Threat Reduction (CTR) criteria, except that they
do not include arms control compliance and human rights.
Current law does not provide a waiver from these requirements.
An essential Administration priority is to reduce and prevent
the proliferation of weapons of mass destruction, materials,
and expertise. The certification requirements for CTR and FSA
Title hinder that effort in the former Soviet states. To
expedite expenditure of CTR/FSA funds, this provision would
allow the President to waiver the certification requirement for
national security purposes.
Sec. . Notwithstanding any other provision of law, not to
exceed $30,000,000, to remain available until September 30,
2002, from funds appropriated in this Act under title II of
Public Law 107-117 may be used to support indigenous forces
engaged in activities in furtherance of United States national
security aims, including Operation Enduring Freedom and related
activities in combating terrorism, on such terms and conditions
as the Secretary of Defense may determine: Provided, That such
support may include defense articles, services, training, and
funding.
This proposal would make up to $30 million of funds
appropriated to the Department of Defense available for support
to indigenous forces engaged in activities in furtherance of
United States national security aims.
Sec. . (a) Availability of Amounts for Military
Construction Relating to Terrorism._Amounts made available to
the Department of Defense from funds appropriated in this Act
may be used to carry out military construction projects, not
otherwise authorized by law, that the Secretary of Defense
determines are necessary to respond to or protect against acts
or threatened acts of terrorism.
(b) Notice to Congress._Not later than 15 days before
obligating amounts available under subsection (a) for military
construction projects referred to in that subsection, the
Secretary shall notify the appropriate committees of Congress
of the following:
(1) the determination to use such amounts for the
project; and
(2) the estimated cost of the project and the
accompanying Form 1391.
(c) Appropriate Committees of Congress Defined._In this
section the term ``appropriate committees of Congress'' has the
meaning given that term in section 2801(4) of title 10, United
States Code.
This proposal would make the funds appropriated in this Act
available for military construction projects with a requirement
to provide Congress with information describing the project and
its costs 15 days before obligating the amounts.
Sec. . Section 8052(b) of the Department of Defense
Appropriations Act, 2002 (Public Law 107-117) is amended by
striking out ``will reduce the personnel requirements or
financial requirements of the department'', and inserting the
following in lieu thereof, ``either (1) will reduce the
personnel requirements or the financial requirements of the
department, or (2) is necessary in response to an emergency,
including responding to direct threats or incidents of
terrorism''.
This proposal would expand the ability of the Secretary of
Defense to waive the prohibition on use of appropriations for
establishment of a field operating agency when he determines
that such action is necessary in response to an emergency or to
protect life and property.
Sec. . Funds appropriated by this Act, or made available
by the transfer of funds in this Act, for intelligence
activities are deemed to be specifically authorized by the
Congress for purposes of section 504 of the National Security
Act of 1947 (50 U.S.C. 414): Provided, That any funds
appropriated or transferred to the Central Intelligence Agency
for agent operations or covert action programs authorized by
the President under section 503 of the National Security Act of
1947, as amended, shall remain available until September 30,
2003.
This section provides that funds appropriated by this Act,
or made available by transfer of funds in this Act, for
intelligence activities, are deemed to be specifically
authorized by the Congress for purposes of section 504 of the
National Security Act of 1947 (50 U.S.C. 414).
Sec. . Section 8005 of the Department of Defense
Appropriations Act, 2002 (Public Law 107-117) is amended by
striking ``$2,000,000,000'', and inserting ``$3,000,000,000'',
and by striking ``May 1, 2002'' and inserting ``June 15,
2002''.
This section would provide the Secretary of Defense with
additional general transfer authority, critical flexibility
necessary to respond to emerging requirements in the war on
terrorism, and would move the deadline for submitting a request
for multiple reprogrammings to the Congress, giving the
Department more time to assess mid-year changes in priorities.
Sec. . (a) Funds appropriated to the Department of
Defense for fiscal year 2002 for operation and maintenance
under the heading ``Chemical Agents and Munitions Destruction,
Army'', may be used to pay for additional costs of
international inspectors from the Technical Secretariat of the
Organization for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons, pursuant
to Articles IV and V of the Chemical Weapons Convention, for
inspections and monitoring of Department of Defense sites and
commercial sites that perform services under contract to the
Department of Defense, resulting from the Department of
Defense's program to accelerate its chemical demilitarization
schedule.
(b) Expenses which may be paid under subsection (a)
include--
(1) salary costs for performance of inspection and
monitoring duties;
(2) travel, including travel to and from the point of
entry into the United States and internal United States
travel;
(3) per diem, not to exceed United Nations rates and
in compliance with United Nations conditions for per
diem for that organization; and
(4) expenses for operation and maintenance of
inspection and monitoring equipment.
This proposal would make funds appropriated in ``Chemical
Agents and Munitions Destruction, Army'' available for the
payment for certain additional costs of international
inspectors under Articles IV and V of the Chemical Weapons
Convention resulting from the Department of Defense's program
to accelerate its chemical demilitarization schedule.
Sec. . Notwithstanding any other provision of law, not to
exceed $100,000,000 from appropriations available to the
Department of Defense may be used to support foreign nations in
furtherance of the global war on terrorism, on such terms and
conditions as the Secretary of Defense may determine: Provided,
That such support may include defense articles, services, and
training.
This provision would give the Department of Defense the
ability to use a certain amount of its resources to support
foreign nations in furtherance of the global war on terrorism.
This would allow the Department to provide, among other things,
training and equipment to enhance the military operational
readiness of foreign military forces, so that these forces will
have the capability to engage effectively in military
operations that further the United States objectives in the
global war on terrorism.
Sec. . (a) During fiscal years 2002 and 2003, the term
``counter-drug activities'' as used in 10 U.S.C. 124, section
1004 of the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal year
1991 (P.L. 101-510), as amended, section 1033 of the National
Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 1998 (P.L. 105-85),
and section 3101 of the Emergency Supplemental Act, 2000 (P.L.
106-246), shall be deemed to include activities in support of
the government of Colombia's unified campaign against narcotics
trafficking, terrorist activities, and other threats to its
national security.
(b) This provision shall also apply to unexpired balances
from prior years' Acts available for activities identified in
subsection (a).
This provision would allow broader authority to provide
assistance to Colombia to counter the unified ``cross-cutting''
threat posed by groups that use narcotics trafficking to fund
their terrorist and other activities that threaten the national
security of Colombia. Section 8093 of the Department of Defense
Appropriations Act, 2002, and section 3204(b)(1) of P.L. 106-
246, as amended, shall continue to apply.
Sec. . Contracting For Security Guards.--Section 2465 of
title 10, United States Code, is amended--
(1) in subsection (a), by striking ``subsection (b)''
and inserting ``subsections (b) and (c)''; and
(2) by inserting at the end the following new
subsection (c):
``(c) Funds appropriated to the Department of Defense may
be obligated and expended for the purpose of entering into a
contract for the performance of security guard functions
provided that the Secretary of Defense determines that such
contract is necessary because the provision of such services by
government personnel is not cost effective or practical.''.
Section 2465 of title 10, United States Code, effectively
prohibits any new contracts for security guard service at
military installations in the continental United States. This
limits flexibility for small DoD installations, such as
agencies, field operating agencies, and direct reporting units
with security requirements. When a heightened security posture
is needed based on terrorist threat or similar exigencies,
current Federal employee staffing for security guards are
inadequate to meet and sustain the standards and protection
measures required by DoD and the Military Departments on a
site-specified basis.
Although Section 1010 of the Patriot Act allows for
entering into contracts or other agreements with local or State
governments for security, it does not offer flexibility for
meeting the long-term security needs of small DoD installations
during peace or increased threats. The proposed revision will
permit the hiring of security personnel to augment or replace
existing Federal employee security guards by utilizing
contracts to meet and sustain to a level of applicable Force
Protection Condition requirements expeditiously, commensurate
with compliance with the Directives.
As part of the overall management for DoD force protection,
it may be prudent and cost effective to provide contracted
security at smaller installations like recruiting stations,
finance offices, contract management offices, audit offices,
research offices, etc. The intent is to use this provision to
provide flexible security options only at these smaller DoD
installations.

General Provisions
Sec. . (a) In fiscal year 2002 and 2003, funds available
to the Department of State for assistance to the government of
Colombia shall be available, notwithstanding any other
provision of law, to support a unified campaign against
narcotics trafficking, terrorist activities, and other threats
to its national security.
(b) This provision shall also apply to unexpired balances
and assistance previously provided from prior years' Acts
available for the purposes identified in subsection (a).
(c) Section 556 of the Foreign Operations, Export Financing
and Related Programs Appropriations Act, 2002, and section
3204(b)(1) of P.L. 106-246, as amended, shall continue to
apply.
(d) The authority in this section is in addition to
authorities currently available to provide assistance to
Colombia.
This provision would allow broader authority to provide
assistance to Colombia to counter the unified ``cross-cutting''
threat posed by groups that use narcotics trafficking to fund
their terrorist and other activities that threaten the national
security of Colombia. Such authority would not prejudice the
Department of State's ability to rely on existing authorities
to provide assistance to Colombia but would explicitly
recognize the link between narcotics trafficking and terrorist
assistance (whether appropriated in FY 2002, FY 2003, or in
past years).

additional funds for the Cybercorps/Scholarships for Service
program, which makes awards to qualified institutions to
provide scholarships to undergraduate and graduate students
studying computer security. In exchange, the recipients must
serve in the Federal Government for at least two years. Of the
funds requested, $10.7 million would be targeted for awards to
institutions that submitted bids for FY 2002 funds and $8.6
million would supplement funding available to institutions
receiving awards in FY 2001, to further increase the number of
students supported at those institutions.
In December 2001, the National Science Foundation received
over 30 proposals requesting a total of $34.0 million. The
panel reviewing the proposals recommended that nine be funded;
