######### Overview {#overview .unnumbered}

The Department of Justice (DOJ) is committed to winning the war on
terror and preventing, investigating, and prosecuting terrorist
activities against U.S. citizens and interests. In FY 2008, \$3.4
billion in Departmental resources are focused on counterterrorism and
intelligence activities. In addition to this funding, the FY 2007 War
Supplemental requests \$173.5 million to assist in the global war on
terror and to support operations in Iraq and Afghanistan. In FY 2006,
the Department received \$152.6 million in supplemental funding for the
war on terror.

These funds will be used to support the efforts of the Federal Bureau of
Investigation (FBI) and Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and
Explosives (ATF) in deployments to Iraq to support the war in Iraq.
Funding for FBI, the Criminal Division, the Drug Enforcement
Administration (DEA), and the U.S. Marshals Service (USMS) will also be
used to support our nation's efforts in Afghanistan. Additional funding
is also provided for FBI's Counterterrorism efforts, the National
Security Division (NSD), the Bureau of Prisons (BOP), USMS, and the U.S.
Attorneys (USAs) to assist in domestic terrorism investigations, trial
of indicted terrorists, and confinement of convicted terrorists. The
following narrative summarizes the Department's request.

In addition, the Administration requests FY 2008 War Supplemental
resources totaling \$146.7 million for the following DOJ components:
\$4.0 million for ATF; \$9.1 million for BOP; \$4.1 million for the
Criminal Division; \$8.5 million for DEA; \$101.1 million for FBI; \$5.0
million for USAs; and \$14.9 million for USMS.

**Enhancements**

**[Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives]{.underline}**

-   **Iraq Embassy Support: \$4.0 million** to provide direct support to
    the U.S. military mission in Iraq through deployment of explosive
    enforcement officers on a rotational basis, to support Department of
    Defense and contactor personnel with training in post-blast
    investigation and render safe procedures for improvised explosives
    devices.

**[Bureau of Prisons]{.underline}**

-   **Counterterrorism (CT) Unit, Increased Translation, and
    Counterterrorism Surveillance Equipment: \$17 million** to support
    BOP's efforts in collecting intelligence and monitoring terrorist
    inmates. The BOP must enhance its capabilities with a dedicated CT
    unit to responsibly address growing CT-related issues and actively
    work with other DOJ and DOD law enforcement agencies to effectively
    gather, monitor, translate, and disseminate information pertinent to
    the management of the terrorist population and prevent further
    terrorist activity. Of the total funding, \$5 million funds the
    salary, travel, training, supplies, and overhead for analysts,
    translators, and other CT personnel; \$1 million funds additional CT
    surveillance equipment; and the remaining \$11 million provides for
    contract translation services and National Virtual Translation
    Center costs.

## Criminal Division

-   **Iraqi Reconstruction Investigations: \$1.6 million** to provide
    litigation support services to the Special Inspector General for
    Iraqi Reconstruction (SIGIR) investigations and cases. The Criminal
    Division, along with the Special Inspector General for Iraqi
    Reconstruction (SIGIR), and the Criminal Investigations Division of
    the United States Army (CD), are investigating corruption in the
    reconstruction of Iraq. The Division will expend substantial
    resources in these continuing investigations, and anticipates
    bringing charges in several jurisdictions against several
    defendants.

-   **Iraqi and Afghanistan Training: \$2.4 million** to (1) create Iraq
    and Afghanistan Support Units at Headquarters and (2) provide
    programmatic support to existing Iraq and Afghanistan programs on
    the ground. The Division is currently playing a vital role in
    providing training and assistance to law enforcement, corrections,
    and justice-sector personnel in Iraq. The Division also supports
    antiterrorism and counter-narcotic efforts, law reform, and judicial
    assistance to the host government in Afghanistan.

**[Drug Enforcement Administration]{.underline}**

-   **Aviation Base Funding**: **\$600,000** for administrative,
    maintenance, and logistics costs associated with supporting the
    aviation operations in Afghanistan. In FY 2007, DEA will operate two
    King Air 350 twin-engine turboprop aircraft in Afghanistan. These
    assets will provide for critical mobility, intelligence, and command
    and control functions. The ability to travel quickly and with a high
    degree of security throughout the mountainous and often hostile
    region will substantially mitigate the risks inherent in operating
    in Afghanistan operations.

```{=html}
<!-- -->
```
-   **Narco-Terrorism Initiative: \$3.6 million** to enhance DEA Special
    Operations Division (SOD) support for investigations targeting the
    international and transnational threat of narco-terrorism.
    Additional resources will enable SOD to more effectively support DEA
    investigations and prosecutions targeting international terrorist
    organizations involved in drug trafficking, and provide for timely
    coordination and information sharing between U.S. and foreign law
    enforcement agencies. Specifically, funding will be used to procure
    and field switch-based equipment to support communications
    intercepts through cooperation with cellular and hard-line telephone
    service providers. Enhanced intercept systems will support the
    collection of intelligence/evidence on regional drug trafficking
    organizations and the building of cases against lead criminals that
    control these organizations and afford financial support to
    terrorists.

```{=html}
<!-- -->
```
-   **Operation Breakthrough: \$1.6 million** to establish an analytical
    unit at DEA headquarters to focus on production of accurate
    estimates of drug production and flow. By extending *Operation
    Breakthrough* to Afghanistan, DEA will provide the U.S. government
    with a science-based methodology for estimating potential drug crop
    yields and drug laboratory efficiencies. The unit will periodically
    deploy to Afghanistan to gather data. *Operation Breakthrough* teams
    are composed of DEA Intelligence Analysts, Forensic Chemists,
    Diversion Investigators, and local scientists under contract to DEA.
    To staff this initiative, DEA will fill existing positions that are
    currently vacant.

-   **Financial Investigations: \$3.0 million** for a proactive attack
    on the financial infrastructure of drug trafficking organizations
    operating in Afghanistan and within the region, which will help
    prevent Afghanistan from becoming a narco-terrorist state. This
    request will support two initiatives: the first is an operation to
    develop a precise understanding of the Hawala system, which is a
    method of funds transfer used throughout the Middle East; and the
    second is to establish an ongoing, coordinated, regional financial
    investigation training program.

**[Federal Bureau of Investigation]{.underline}**

-   **Classified Operational Expenses: \$19.7 million.**

-   **Counterterrorism (CT) Travel: \$3.0 million** to fund FBI's
    extensive travel costs associated with counterterrorism efforts and
    the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. Funding would be used to cover
    rotation costs for personnel deployed to Iraq in support of the
    FBI's investigative mission. For the past three years, the FBI's
    Counterterrorism Division (CTD) has been conducting 90-day rotations
    of 30 to 40 FBI Special Agent and Support personnel to Iraq in
    support of the investigative mission. FBI field office travel
    budgets are not adequately funded to cover these expenses; therefore
    CTD provides the funding by diverting them from other operational
    travel requirements.

```{=html}
<!-- -->
```
-   **Overtime: \$20 million** for personnel overtime and hazardous duty
    pay requirements for FBI personnel contributing to Global War on
    Terror matters. As personnel are deployed overseas for each mission,
    all needs must be addressed expeditiously, requiring the use of
    significant amounts of overtime. Personnel do not work standard
    shifts, as they must be available around the clock to address
    operational needs. Additionally, hazardous duty pay is required to
    cover the expenses of those serving in a war zone. Without this
    funding, the FBI will lack the resources to maintain an adequate
    level of personnel and will not be able to compensate the personnel
    already serving in these overseas areas.

-   **Document Exploitation: \$12.8 million** to enhance the FBI's
    ability to collect, analyze, exploit, and disseminate intelligence
    gathered through the lawful interception of communications between
    known or suspected terrorists. These resources would increase
    funding for the Telecommunications Data Collection Center (TDCC)
    (\$11.4 million) and provide contractors (\$1.4 million) to assist
    the FBI in information technology processes.

-   **Domain Management Initiative: \$7.7 million** to support the FBI's
    National Security Branch (NSB) effort to help field offices develop
    a comprehensive understanding of their territory or "domain," so
    that field office managers can effectively deploy resources. This
    process of understanding is the FBI's Domain Management Initiative
    (DMI).

-   **Gulfstream-V Requirements: \$3.6 million** to provide for
    Gulfstream-V (G-V) maintenance, fuel, and pilot training for
    counterterrorism operations in Iraq as well as other capabilities.
    Aviation missions transport personnel to and from Iraq, and it is
    important to maintain the G-V to successfully carry out these
    crucial missions. The requested funding would allow the FBI to
    continue these deployments.

-   **Tactical Operations: \$3.3 million** for Hostage Rescue Team (HRT)
    Operator support (\$2.6 million), M-4 rifle replacement (\$530,000),
    and laptops for deployments (\$105,000). Since the initiation of the
    war on terrorism, the FBI's Critical Incident Response Group (CIRG)
    Tactical Teams have supported the FBI CT/Counterintelligence (CI)
    initiative outside the continental United States with continuous
    90-day deployments. The FBI's Tactical Teams have participated with
    DOD in conducting sensitive site exploitations in Afghanistan,
    searching for al-Qaeda personnel and intelligence. The Tactical
    Teams entered the city of Baghdad soon after DOD occupation in
    support of the FBI's CT/CI objectives and have since continuously
    provided force protection for all DOJ personnel assigned to the
    Iraqi Theater of Operations.

-   **Swift Link: \$3 million** to provide Swift Link satellite time for
    FBI personnel on deployment in Iraq. This request will increase the
    blanket purchase agreement for satellite services and provide
    high-speed data services to provide forward communications in
    support of FBI Global War on Terror missions.

-   **Legal Attaché (Legat) IT Infrastructure: \$5million** to expand
    data circuits and provide digital data connectivity within the FBI's
    Legat program. This infrastructure is necessary to support the
    FBINET (Secret Network) and other communication systems necessary
    for the FBI to transmit information and communicate with other
    members of the IC. Expanding the Legat IT infrastructure will
    provide greater capabilities for time-sensitive data collection,
    data imaging, and the sharing of data to and from international
    locations. Sharing information in this way is vital for the FBI to
    effectively track terrorist and criminal activity.

-   **Logistics Support Mail Services: \$213,000** to provide logistical
    mail services support to maintain the FBI's mission by providing
    funds to ship information, evidence, equipment, supplies, and other
    related materials in support of Iraq operations and the GLOBAL WAR
    ON TERROR.

-   **CT Ops Deployment: \$724,000** to support CT Operations deploying
    in support of the war on terror. The Global War on Terror has placed
    a heavy burden on the FBI's overseas operations. The cost of
    deploying agents and investigative and technical support personnel
    to address acts of terrorism is minimal compared to the results
    \--saving lives and supporting the allies of the United States. In
    FY 2006, the FBI's Office of International Operations expended over
    \$700,000 for personnel to meet overseas GLOBAL WAR ON TERROR
    emergency requirements. The same level of commitment is expected for
    FY 2007. The FBI also expects to require approximately \$24,000 for
    personnel to travel to Kabul to address acts of terrorism in FY
    2007.

-   **Safety Supplies and Gear for Deployed Personnel: \$3.7 million**
    for items that directly support operations in Iraq and Afghanistan.
    With agents currently stationed in Iraq and Afghanistan and ongoing
    deployments continuously adding to this number, it is necessary to
    provide adequate protective equipment to FBI personnel. Increased
    combat calls for an increase in the number of weapons, which
    therefore require more ammunition and gunsmith services.

-   **Armored Vehicles: \$3.9 million** to purchase 20 armored vehicles
    for the protection of its personnel deployed in Iraq and other
    international locations. The new vehicles will have additional armor
    to provide increased protection against more powerful explosive
    devices. This funding would enhance the FBI's ability to transport
    personnel handling critical ongoing investigations outside the
    United States. Conditions in certain locations, particularly Iraq,
    are harsh, requiring replacement of these vehicles every few years
    due to wear and tear. This funding would allow the FBI to purchase
    replacement vehicles.

-   **Language Support: \$750,000** to support Iraq/Afghanistan
    Operations. The FBI is sending contract linguists to Iraq and these
    personnel are working hand-in-hand with other United States partner
    agencies to support Iraq/Afghanistan Operations.

-   **IDW/FTTTF Consolidation: \$10 million** to consolidate the
    processing and exploitation of Foreign Terrorist Tracking Task Force
    (FTTTF) data, Investigative Data Warehouse (IDW) data, and to
    develop and deploy a robust infrastructure capable of receiving,
    processing, and managing the quality of substantially increased
    amounts of additional data. This request capitalizes on the
    strengths and unique core capabilities of each program to build a
    more powerful analytical capability resulting in a greater number of
    users, and an increase in the number of available data by
    approximately 30 percent. Simultaneously, a more robust and
    consistent infrastructure will facilitate deployment throughout the
    Intelligence Community and be a catalyst for increased information
    sharing at all levels.

-   **NSB Training: \$10 million** to support the enhanced development
    of FBI personnel through specialized training designed to better
    equip agents, analysts, and other personnel to analyze the threats
    and enemy mindset. Improving and expanding the FBI's training
    capacity will allow the FBI to make a greater contribution to the
    Intelligence Community, in a combined effort towards a proactive war
    strategy. Highly specialized training and advanced technology are
    needed to fully develop personnel, and provide them with the
    expertise needed to anticipate the enemy threat and methodology.
    This training is mission critical, and is a direct response to the
    President's mandate in 2005 that the FBI establish "a specialized
    and integrated national security workforce."

-   **Classified Collaborative Capabilities: \$2 million.**

-   **International Support for GLOBAL WAR ON TERROR & Iraq/Afghanistan:
    \$1.9 million** would provide funding for emergency communications
    (\$410,000), critical threat training (\$1.1 million), and Foreign
    Service National (FSN) support (\$380,000) for FBI personnel
    deployed to Iraq, Afghanistan, and other locations outside the
    United States.

-   **National Virtual Translation Center (NVTC): \$4 million** to
    support its Foreign Language Program mission. The requested funding
    would allow NVTC to directly support American war fighters by
    providing real-time language support to all armed services, either
    to specific field and headquarters components or to unified
    Commands. This would be accomplished by NVTC-developed and deployed
    state-of-the-art technologies across multiple military systems to
    broker translation services and provide the translated product in a
    format suitable for dissemination to its military intelligence
    customer base. Additional NVTC funding would provide and foster
    enhanced technology and connectivity to expand the interface with
    the DOD and other Intelligence Community elements.

-   **Regional Data Exchange (R-DEx): \$3 million** to support
    information sharing and facilitate improved capabilities for law
    enforcement agencies to collaborate across agency, jurisdictional
    and geographic boundaries.

**[National Security Division]{.underline}**

-   **Military Commission Prosecutions:** **\$1.7 million** to support
    the DOD effort in prosecuting the 14 high value detainees at
    Guantanamo via the process established by the Military Commission,
    by covering operational costs relating to Assistant United States
    Attorney (AUSA) detailees and supporting paralegals, who will be
    reporting to the NSD while on detail. The AUSA details will begin as
    soon as possible and the details will last a year or longer.

**[United States Attorneys]{.underline}**

-   **Terrorism Litigation Expenses:** **\$5 million** to support the
    increased cost of prosecuting terrorism defendants.   These types of
    cases are extremely costly to prosecute.  In addition to significant
    attorney time, terrorism cases often involve significant domestic
    and foreign travel to interview witnesses, as well as interpreter
    and stenographer, expert witness, and secure communications costs.

**[United States Marshals Service]{.underline}**

-   **Afghanistan Court Security and Witness Security Programs: \$12.2
    million** for logistical support and equipment to deploy eight
    employees to Afghanistan for one year and to secure the Afghanistan
    judicial complex. The USMS personnel (the mix of operational and
    administrative personnel has not yet been determined) would train
    and equip a Judicial and Witness Security Protection Unit of the
    Counter-Narcotic Police of Afghanistan, a necessary component in the
    development of the Criminal Justice Task Force (CJTF) and Central
    Narcotics Tribunal (CNT).

> The CNT has exclusive nationwide jurisdiction over all mid- and
> high-level narcotics trafficking and related offenses as defined by
> the Afghan Counter-Narcotics Law. The CJTF and the CNT currently
> occupy temporary facilities but are expected to occupy the Counter
> Narcotics Justice Center (CNJC) which is scheduled to open in January
> 2007. USMS personnel will ensure that the new CNJC is physically
> secure and that witnesses in sensitive, high-level cases to be tried
> by the CNT are protected from threat and harm.

-   **High-Threat Terrorist Trials: \$2.75 million** for high-threat
    terrorist trials in the United States. Of this amount, \$2 million
    is for travel and overtime for Deputy Marshals and to hire
    additional contract District Security Officers for a single
    high-threat terrorist trial in the Southern District of Florida:
    USA v. Jose Padilla. The remaining \$750,000 is for needed
    infrastructure upgrades for USA v. Babar Ahmad to be held in the
    District of Connecticut. The upgrades will include the installation
    of required conduit, back boxes, and junction boxes necessary for
    electronic security devices in prisoner movement space throughout
    the courthouse. These devices include but are not limited to CCTV
    cameras, monitors, intercom duress alarms, video recording devices,
    and control room upgrades. These are two known trials requiring
    extensive security with more expected to come when cases are brought
    forward by the U.S. Attorneys.
