Highlights of GAO-04-489, a report to the Subcommittee on Energy and 
Water Development, Committee on Appropriations, House of 
Representatives

Why GAO Did This Study: 

The Department of Energys (DOE) contractor-operated laboratories 
perform mission-related research and development (R&D) for DOE and 
other federal agencies. In 1992, DOE established the Laboratory-
Directed Research and Development (LDRD) program, under which 
laboratory directors may allocate funding to scientists to conduct 
worthy independent research. DOE allows participating laboratories to 
support their LDRD programs by including a charge of up to 6 percent of 
the total project cost in the indirect costs for R&D performed for DOE 
and other federal agencies.

GAO was asked to address 11 specific questions on DOEs LDRD program 
regarding: 

* DOEs statutory authority for charging other federal agencies for 
LDRD, 
* DOEs policies and procedures for ensuring departmental compliance 
with statutory requirements and committee report direction, 
* the extent to which DOE believes the LDRD program is a necessary tool 
for recruiting and retaining laboratory scientists, and 
* the sources and amounts of LDRD funding that each laboratory received 
from fiscal year 1998 through fiscal year 2003. 

In commenting on the draft report, DOE agreed with its factual 
accuracy.

What GAO Found: 

* By law, when DOE conducts R&D for other federal agencies and uses a 
laboratory contractor to carry out the tasks, DOE must recover from the 
other agency all costs, including LDRD, DOE owes its contractor in 
performing the work.
* DOE has issued a departmental order and clarifying memoranda and 
guidance to ensure LDRD program compliance with statutory requirements 
and congressional direction. For example, the Secretary of Energys 
April 2002 guidance requires that agencies funding work at its 
laboratories be notified about the LDRD program, including the 
laboratorys indirect-cost rate and an estimate of the associated cost. 
According to senior budget, legal, and research program officials at 
six federal agencies that fund work at the DOE laboratories, inclusion 
of funding for the LDRD program as an indirect cost does not limit 
their agencys ability to comply with statutory or appropriations 
requirements. 
* Managers at the four DOE laboratories that primarily conduct nuclear 
weapons and environmental management R&D told us that LDRD is vital for 
recruiting and retaining top scientists, while managers at the five 
Office of Science laboratories said that LDRD plays an important, but 
less vital, role in recruiting and retaining top scientists.
* From fiscal year 1998 through fiscal year 2003, DOEs contractor-
operated laboratories spent a total of $1.8 billion, or an average of 
$296 million per year, on LDRD. DOE accounted for 84 percent and the 
Department of Defense and the intelligence agencies, through their 
payments to DOE, accounted for 12 percent of the federal support for 
the LDRD program in fiscal year 2003.

Letter April 30, 2004: 

The Honorable David L. Hobson: 
Chairman: 
The Honorable Peter J. Visclosky: 
Ranking Member: 
Subcommittee on Energy and Water Development: 
Committee on Appropriations: 
House of Representatives: 

In fiscal year 2003, the Department of Energy's (DOE) contractor-
operated laboratories spent more than $7.9 billion on research and 
development (R&D) and other operating expenses that supported the 
department's national nuclear security, energy resources, 
environmental management, and science programs. To foster scientific 
excellence at these laboratories, the Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as 
amended, and other laws have authorized DOE laboratories to use a 
reasonable amount of laboratory funds to conduct employee-suggested R&D 
projects selected at the discretion of the laboratory 
directors.[Footnote 1] Subsequently, the National Defense 
Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 1991 authorized the contractor-
operated laboratories that receive funding for national security 
programs to perform laboratory-directed R&D of a creative and 
innovative nature to maintain the vitality of the laboratories' 
defense-related scientific disciplines.

In fiscal year 1992, DOE formalized its laboratories' self-initiated 
R&D programs by establishing the Laboratory-Directed Research and 
Development (LDRD) program. Under this program DOE's contractor-
operated laboratories may fund their LDRD programs by including up to 6 
percent of an R&D project's total cost in its indirect cost of doing 
the work for DOE, other federal agencies, and nonfederal organizations. 
Total funding support for the LDRD program grew from $223 million in 
fiscal year 1992 to $356 million in fiscal year 2003.[Footnote 2]

Table 1 shows the nine contractor-operated laboratories that 
participated in DOE's LDRD program in fiscal year 2003. These 
laboratories include three within the National Nuclear Security 
Administration (NNSA) that primarily conduct R&D for the nuclear 
weapons program, five within DOE's Office of Science that primarily 
perform basic research, and one within the Office of Nuclear Energy, 
Science, and Technology that primarily performs research for the 
environmental management program. DOE's appropriations are the source 
of more than 80 percent of the LDRD funding each year; the remaining 
funds are reimbursements to DOE that are paid out of appropriations of 
other federal agencies, or private organizations, to cover the costs 
DOE incurred in performing work for these entities, primarily through 
DOE's Work for Others program.

[End of table]

The nine DOE laboratories select LDRD projects on their scientific and 
technical merits without regard to funding origin, provided that the 
projects will support DOE's national security mission. DOE requires 
that LDRD projects focus on the advanced study of scientific or 
technical problems, experiments directed toward proving a scientific 
principle, or early analysis of experimental facilities or devices. For 
example, scientific knowledge gained from Sandia's LDRD project that 
created crystalline silicotitanate, a material capable of separating 
highly radioactive cesium from other wastes, led to the development of 
new technology that could substantially reduce the costs of cleaning up 
radioactive waste at DOE's Hanford site. Similarly, Lawrence Berkeley's 
LDRD project on advanced neutron generation has aided in the 
development of a portable neutron generating device that can be used 
for detecting explosives and nuclear materials that could be hidden in 
different types of containers. This device could eventually be used to 
screen luggage at airports or steel shipping containers at port 
facilities.

Generally, scientists at each laboratory independently propose projects 
that peer review panels and laboratory managers prioritize on the basis 
of their assessment of potential scientific and technical merit and 
potential strategic impact. The laboratory directors use these 
assessments to make their selections. In accordance with DOE policy, 
the selected LDRD projects are reviewed and approved by DOE. In 
general, projects cost from $100,000 to $300,000 and last 2 to 3 years.

This report addresses the 11 specific questions that you asked us on 
DOE's LDRD program. To answer these questions, we examined the 
authorizing legislation, DOE's order and memoranda implementing the 
LDRD program, LDRD program documents, and financial data for each of 
the nine contractor-operated laboratories that participate in the LDRD 
program. We also interviewed cognizant officials at DOE and its nine 
laboratories. In addition, we interviewed officials at the Departments 
of Defense (DOD), Homeland Security (DHS), and Transportation (DOT); 
the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA); the National 
Institutes of Health (NIH), within the Department of Health and Human 
Services; and the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC). Through their 
payments to DOE, these federal agencies were among the primary sources 
of LDRD funding generated from R&D performed for non-DOE agencies from 
fiscal years 1998 through 2003. We conducted our review from July 2003 
through March 2004 in accordance with generally accepted government 
auditing standards.

Questions Posed by the Subcommittee and GAO's Responses: 

Question 1: Does DOE have statutory authority that specifically 
authorizes it to spend the funds appropriated to other federal agencies 
and use those funds for LDRD?

GAO Response: 

The Strom Thurmond National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 
1999 authorizes DOE to conduct R&D at DOE facilities for "other 
departments and agencies of the government . . ."[Footnote 3] The act 
requires that when DOE conducts R&D for other agencies, it impose a 
charge to recover its costs of conducting the work.[Footnote 4] The 
charge must include both direct costs that DOE incurs in carrying out 
the work and all associated overhead costs.[Footnote 5] When DOE 
assesses the charge to recover its costs, the ordering agency transfers 
amounts from its appropriation to DOE to pay the assessed charge.

An interagency transaction, like that authorized by section 7259a, is 
not unlike a contractual transaction. Because of a statutory 
prohibition on transferring funds between two appropriations, federal 
agencies require specific statutory authority, like section 7259a, to 
engage in interagency transactions. In other words, federal agencies 
require statutory authority to contract with each other. Section 7259a 
permits other federal agencies to contract with DOE for R&D. When other 
agencies transfer amounts to DOE to pay the charge that DOE assesses 
under section 7259a, and DOE uses those amounts to defray the costs it 
incurred in carrying out the work for the other agency, DOE is not 
"spending" funds appropriated to another agency any more than a private 
vendor with whom the agency had contracted for services "spends" 
federal appropriations when it uses amounts received in payment from 
the federal agency to defray its costs of doing business. As in a 
contractual transaction, when a federal agency transfers amounts to DOE 
in payment of the section 7259a charge, the funds transferred become 
DOE funds and are available for the same purposes and uses as the other 
amounts in the DOE appropriation account to which they are credited.

When DOE agrees to carry out R&D for another agency and conducts the 
work in one of its laboratories, DOE asks the contractor who operates 
its laboratory to undertake the R&D tasks. In that case, the cost to 
DOE of having its contractor conduct these tasks is a direct cost that 
DOE is required by section 7259a to include in the charge that it 
assesses the other agency.[Footnote 6] The other agency is not paying 
DOE's contractor; in fact, the other agency has no legal relationship 
with DOE's contractor.

The amount DOE owes its contractor for this work is determined by the 
terms of the contract that DOE has with its contractor. Included in the 
amounts DOE pays its contractor is an amount for LDRD. The National 
Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 1991 requires DOE to pay its 
laboratory contractors an amount for LDRD, not to exceed 6 percent of 
the amount that DOE pays to the contractor for national security 
activities.[Footnote 7]

Consequently, DOE is not "using" funds appropriated to other federal 
agencies for LDRD. LDRD is a cost that DOE incurs, both statutorily and 
contractually, whenever the laboratory's contractor performs work for 
DOE. When another agency asks DOE to conduct R&D on its behalf, and 
DOE, in performing that work incurs an LDRD cost, DOE, under section 
7259a, properly includes that cost in calculating what it will charge 
the ordering agency. Just as a private vendor factors its costs of 
doing business into the price it charges for services rendered, DOE, 
under section 7259a, must factor its costs of doing business, including 
LDRD, into the amount it charges other agencies. That DOE might use 
monies properly transferred from another agency to defray the LDRD 
amount it owes its laboratory contractor does not mean that DOE is 
"using" another agency's funds for LDRD any more than a private vendor 
is using a federal agency's appropriation when it applies amounts paid 
by a federal agency for services rendered to defray its costs of doing 
business.

Question 2: Congressional appropriations laws must comply with defense 
and domestic firewalls in Senate budget resolutions adopted by 
Congress. What mechanism has DOE had in place to ensure that funds 
appropriated for defense purposes are used only for defense activities 
and that funds appropriated for domestic purposes are used only for 
activities in support of those domestic agencies? This question applies 
to both LDRD conducted with DOE funds and LDRD conducted with funds 
received from other federal agencies.

GAO Response: 

As discussed in our response to question 1, DOE's funds support the 
LDRD programs at participating DOE contractor-operated laboratories--
not the appropriations of other agencies. Under the terms of the 
agreement when another federal agency asks DOE to perform work on its 
behalf, the agency agrees to reimburse DOE all costs that DOE incurs in 
performing the work.

In funding and carrying out LDRD, DOE and the laboratories must comply 
with statutory requirements imposed on them. For example, DOE and its 
contractor-operated laboratories are required to comply with the 
National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 1998,[Footnote 8] 
which requires that when DOE uses its appropriation for nuclear weapons 
activities to pay for LDRD, the LDRD must support projects in DOE's 
national security mission and when DOE uses its environmental 
restoration, waste management, or nuclear materials and facilities 
stabilization appropriation to pay for LDRD, the LDRD must support 
projects in these mission areas. In addition, the Homeland Security Act 
of 2002 specifically directs that when DHS orders work from DOE's 
laboratories, the laboratories must use the associated LDRD funds only 
for purposes that benefit DHS missions.[Footnote 9]

Officials at each of the laboratories we visited told us that, because 
LDRD promotes cutting-edge science and technology, much of the R&D 
conducted is basic research that, by definition, can result in 
applications that benefit both defense and civilian agencies. Thus, 
projects proposed with the intention of supporting a defense mission 
may lead to cross-cutting applications that benefit Homeland Security 
or other civilian agencies. Specifically, officials at DOE's weapons 
laboratories cited examples in sensor research for identifying traces 
of radiological and biological agents that had benefited both the 
nuclear nonproliferation and homeland security missions. They also 
mentioned LDRD projects that had applications for the NIH's cancer 
research programs, as well as DHS and DOE.

Question 3: Which federal agencies, in addition to DOE, have a similar 
process whereby up to 6 percent of funds appropriated to the agency (or 
any other federal agency) may be diverted to purposes other than those 
for which the Congress appropriated the funds?

GAO Response: 

NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory, operated by the California Institute 
of Technology, is the only federal laboratory we identified that 
includes an assessment on the work performed for other federal agencies 
to support a laboratory-directed R&D program. In fiscal year 2003, the 
Jet Propulsion Laboratory Director's R&D Fund received about $91,000 
through an assessment of .025 percent on all projects over $250,000 
performed for other federal agencies--primarily DOD. The Director's R&D 
Fund also received $3.5 million from NASA's research directorates that 
was pro rated on the basis of their expected R&D funding at the Jet 
Propulsion Laboratory. Similar to DOE's LDRD program, the Director's 
R&D Fund is designed to promote innovative science and new technology. 
The fund also encourages collaborative work with the California 
Institute of Technology, other universities, other federal 
laboratories, and industry. The Jet Propulsion Laboratory's director 
awards funding to research projects on the basis of peer review of 
their scientific merits.

The Air Force's Lincoln Laboratory, operated by the Massachusetts 
Institute of Technology, has a Directed Defense Research and 
Engineering program. However, unlike LDRD, the Defense budget provides 
the Directed Defense Research and Engineering program with about $25 
million annually through a direct appropriation from the Congress--
Lincoln does not include an assessment in its indirect-cost rate to 
finance its program.[Footnote 10] Similar to DOE's LDRD program, 
Lincoln Laboratory's director awards funding to research projects on 
the basis of peer review of their scientific merits. The Army and the 
Navy also reported that their In-house Laboratory Independent Research 
program is fully funded by their appropriations.

NRC's Center for Nuclear Waste Regulatory Analyses, operated by the 
Southwest Research Institute, also has a small self-initiated research 
program. However, NRC's center does not receive funding support from 
other federal agencies.

Question 4: What mechanisms has DOE had in place to ensure that the 
department fully complies with all statutory and report language in 
appropriations bills for itself and other federal agencies when DOE 
spends funds on their behalf?

GAO Response: 

DOE has issued a departmental order for the LDRD program and clarifying 
memoranda and guidance to ensure departmental compliance with statutory 
requirements and congressional direction in committee reports. These 
include the following: 

* The National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 1991 
established an annual 6-percent funding limit on LDRD. Subsequently, 
DOE's Order 413.2A established departmental requirements for the LDRD 
program, and each laboratory establishes a fixed rate for the LDRD 
assessment each year that ensures compliance with the 6-percent funding 
limit. DOE officials told us that the department does not need to link 
the LDRD funding from non-DOE sources to specific LDRD projects because 
it treats LDRD as an indirect cost that, under cost accounting 
standards, must be pooled with other LDRD funds and not tracked back to 
a specific funding source. The DOE officials added that LDRD costs are 
charged to all laboratory customers at the same rate and are considered 
a normal cost of doing business.

* The National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 1998 limited 
the use of LDRD funds (1) originating from nuclear weapons funding to 
LDRD projects that support DOE's national security mission and (2) 
originating from environmental restoration, waste management, or 
nuclear materials and facilities stabilization for LDRD projects that 
support these missions. DOE and laboratory LDRD managers told us that 
they have achieved the act's funding requirements through (1) the 
identification of areas of emphasis that are likely to benefit DOE's 
national security and environmental management missions in each 
laboratory's annual LDRD program plan and its calls for proposals and 
(2) the laboratory's LDRD manager's and DOE site office's review of 
proposals recommended for funding.

* The National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 1998 also 
required that DOE report to the Congress on the extent to which the 
LDRD Program has met the objective of supporting R&D with long-term 
application to national security. DOE's most recent report to the 
Congress stated that, in fiscal year 2003, the laboratories spent about 
$356 million for LDRD, of which defense customers, through 
reimbursement to DOE, provided $243 million and nondefense customers, 
through reimbursement to DOE, provided $113 million.[Footnote 11] DOE 
concluded that about $268 million of the LDRD funding supported 
projects expected to benefit the defense and national security missions 
and about $283 million of the LDRD funding supported projects expected 
to benefit the nondefense mission areas.

* The Conference Report accompanying the Energy and Water Development 
Appropriations Act for Fiscal Year 2002 directs that (1) when accepting 
funds from another federal agency for work, DOE notify the agency in 
writing how much will be used for LDRD and (2) the Secretary of Energy 
affirm each year that all LDRD projects support R&D that benefits the 
sponsoring agencies' programs and are consistent with their 
appropriations acts.[Footnote 12] On April 30, 2002, the Secretary of 
Energy issued a memorandum to the Under Secretary for Nuclear Security 
and the Under Secretary for Energy, Science and Environment that 
provided guidance directing that all DOE agreements to perform R&D for 
other federal agencies provide notice about each participating 
laboratory's LDRD program, including (1) the applicable indirect-cost 
rate, (2) an estimate of the associated cost, and (3) an explanation of 
the LDRD program's purpose. Furthermore, each agreement to perform work 
states that DOE will conclude that, by approving the agreement and 
providing funds, the agency acknowledges that LDRD benefits the agency 
and is consistent with its appropriation requirements.[Footnote 13] DOE 
officials told us that the DOE site office responsible for the 
laboratory typically sends this notification to the program manager or 
contracting officer at the sponsoring agency.

* The Homeland Security Act of 2002 requires that DHS funds are not to 
be expended for LDRD unless such activities support DHS missions. On 
February 28, 2003, the Secretary of Energy and the Secretary of 
Homeland Security entered into a Memorandum of Agreement that 
establishes a framework for DHS to access the capabilities of DOE's 
national laboratories and production facilities. On April 21, 2003, 
DOE's Deputy Secretary issued DOE Notice 481.1A, Reimbursable Work for 
Department of Homeland Security, which provided information on the 
process by which DHS would place orders for reimbursable work 
activities at the DOE laboratories. The DOE notice includes provisions 
that DOE notify DHS of LDRD charges in the cost proposals and that DHS 
acknowledge the benefits of LDRD prior to final approval. DHS has set 
up centers at each of the DOE laboratories to facilitate its access, 
and DOE and DHS are still formalizing their working relationship.

Question 5: To what extent does the leadership of federal agencies that 
give funds to DOE for its laboratories to conduct R&D on their behalf 
fully understand that up to 6 percent of the funds may be diverted 
under DOE's LDRD program to purposes that have nothing to do with the 
purpose for which the Congress originally appropriated the funds? 
Please detail the written notifications that DOE has issued in response 
to the requirement in the Conference Report for the Energy and Water 
Development Appropriations Act for Fiscal Year 2002 that DOE notify 
federal agencies in writing how much of their funds may be diverted to 
LDRD.

GAO Response: 

Senior officials at each of the six federal agencies we contacted 
stated that their offices were aware that the DOE laboratories included 
a charge of up to 6 percent for LDRD in the costs they are required to 
reimburse DOE. Specifically, the senior officials in the Office of the 
Chief Financial Officer (CFO) and/or the Office of General Counsel at 
each agency told us that the LDRD program's inclusion as an indirect 
cost does not limit their ability to comply with their agency's 
statutory or appropriations requirements. Similarly, none of the 
research managers and/or contracting officers at these agencies 
expressed concern about the LDRD program or its funding 
method.[Footnote 14]

In December 2003, at the direction in the Conference Report 
accompanying the Energy and Water Development Appropriations Act for 
Fiscal Year 2002, DOE sent the CFOs of 22 agencies information about 
the LDRD program and its inclusion in the indirect costs for R&D 
performed at DOE laboratories. Specifically, DOE provided each CFO 
office, with the exception of DHS, with a copy of the Secretary of 
Energy's April 2002 memorandum, an explanation of how the LDRD program 
is funded, and a description of DOE's notification process.[Footnote 
15] However, DOE did not identify a point of contact within each 
agency's Office of the CFO or provide the CFO's room number, and senior 
officials in the CFO's office at Transportation and NRC told us that 
they did not receive DOE's information even though they were the 
appropriate point of contact. These officials commented on the LDRD 
program after we provided them with copies of the DOE materials.

Similarly, research managers and/or contracting officers responsible 
for funding R&D at DOE's contractor-operated laboratories for DOD, DHS, 
DOT, NASA, NIH, and NRC had differing levels of knowledge about how the 
LDRD program functioned and how it is funded. For example, the DOD, 
DHS, and NASA research managers we interviewed had detailed knowledge 
of the LDRD program. In contrast, research managers at DOT were less 
familiar with the LDRD program and how it is funded. They told us that 
this was mainly because the department funds relatively little R&D at 
the DOE laboratories and the decisions to use the DOE laboratories are 
made by the departmental agencies.

Question 6: Please identify any instances when another federal agency 
has refused to pay the LDRD charge assessed by the DOE laboratories on 
work for other agencies, as well as any instances when the DOE 
laboratories have voluntarily waived assessment of the LDRD charge on 
funds received from another federal agency.

GAO Response: 

None of the officials at the six agencies we contacted cited any 
instances when their agencies have refused to reimburse DOE for the 
LDRD charge or expressed concern about the LDRD expense. In June 1998, 
DOE and NIH signed a Memorandum of Understanding that clarified the 
terms and conditions of NIH grants awarded to DOE 
laboratories.[Footnote 16] Among other things, the Memorandum of 
Understanding states that (1) the DOE laboratory contractor may be the 
awardee organization, (2) DOE will waive its 3-percent administrative 
overhead rate, and (3) while NIH awards will not include an allowance 
for LDRD, the DOE laboratories may recover LDRD costs from the total 
funding included in grants awarded to DOE laboratory contractors.

Cognizant officials at DOE and its laboratories told us that they are 
not aware of any instances in which a federal customer has objected to 
or stated that they would not reimburse DOE for the LDRD charge. The 
officials also did not identify any instances in which the DOE 
laboratories had not charged DOE for the LDRD portion of the work done 
on another agency's behalf--either voluntarily or involuntarily. 
Managers at each of the nine DOE laboratories told us that their policy 
is to use the same indirect cost rate for all R&D and other operations 
performed at the laboratory.

Question 7: On April 30, 2002, the Secretary of Energy issued revised 
LDRD guidance in response to direction provided in the Conference 
Report for the Energy and Water Development Appropriations for Fiscal 
Year 2002. Subsequently, DOE's National Nuclear Security Administration 
(NNSA) and Office of Science issued more detailed guidance to their 
respective laboratories. What is the status of implementing the changes 
to the LDRD approval and reporting process as outlined in this 
guidance? Do these new procedures constitute a firewall between LDRD 
using defense appropriations and LDRD using nondefense appropriations, 
as some in DOE have claimed?

GAO Response: 

DOE has implemented changes to the LDRD approval and reporting process 
as outlined in the Secretary's memorandum and the NNSA and Office of 
Science guidance. These changes include having a DOE official review 
and concur on all LDRD projects prior to approval by laboratory 
directors and requiring DOE field officials associated with each 
laboratory to certify annually that LDRD projects benefit the programs 
of the sponsoring agencies. When approving these projects, DOE does not 
distinguish whether the projects benefit defense or nondefense 
activities because, in its view, LDRD projects are new concepts that 
may benefit more than one area and therefore cannot be categorized in 
this manner. DOE officials' role in approving proposed LDRD projects is 
to ensure that the projects support DOE's national security mission. 
However, as stated earlier, DOE's annual report identifies the amounts 
of LDRD funding it receives from defense and nondefense sponsors and 
the amounts of LDRD funding that support projects expected to have 
primary benefit to defense or nondefense mission areas.

Question 8: Are the laboratories supplementing their funds for LDRD 
with funds designated for the Strategic Initiative?

GAO Response: 

None of the nine DOE laboratories has been supplementing funding for 
LDRD programs with other laboratory funds, such as Idaho National 
Engineering and Environmental Laboratory's (INEEL) Strategic 
Initiative, according to officials of DOE's Office of Inspector 
General; Office of Management Budget and Evaluation; Office of Science; 
NNSA; Office of Nuclear Energy, Science, and Technology; and the nine 
laboratories. As stated earlier, DOE's Order 413.2A prohibits DOE's 
laboratories from using LDRD funds on projects that will need 
additional non-LDRD funding to reach their goals.

A May 2003 DOE Inspector General report cited possible misuse of 
INEEL's Strategic Initiative Fund for LDRD projects.[Footnote 17] In 
response, DOE's acting CFO conducted a review of the expenditures in 
question and determined that no funds were misused and INEEL had not 
exceeded its LDRD funding limit. The Inspector General accepted the 
CFO's findings.

Question 9: What does DOE do to ensure, in advance, that different 
laboratories do not undertake duplicative LDRD projects? What does DOE 
do to ensure that LDRD projects are not duplicative of research in 
other federal agencies or in universities?

GAO Response: 

DOE and its laboratories rely on the scientists, who submit proposals; 
members of peer review committees; and laboratory managers to ensure 
that LDRD projects do not duplicate research at other laboratories or 
universities. According to officials at the four laboratories we 
visited, the chances for duplication among LDRD projects are remote for 
several reasons. First, the NNSA laboratories (Los Alamos, Lawrence 
Livermore, and Sandia) coordinate their work to ensure there is no 
duplication. Second, peer review groups consisting of laboratory, DOE, 
industry, and university representatives involve themselves in project 
management and try to eradicate duplication or other potential wastes 
of resources. Third, science is a very competitive field, and 
scientists have strong incentives to conduct original research and 
publish or present the results of that research. Finally, because basic 
science explores fundamental principles, scientists may be looking at 
the same issue, for example, techniques for sensing ever smaller 
amounts of an element, but for different reasons or with different 
approaches. In addition, our September 2001 report concluded that the 
LDRD project-selection and review processes that are in place at the 
nine DOE laboratories are adequate to reasonably ensure compliance with 
DOE's project-selection guidelines.[Footnote 18]

Question 10: To what extent does DOE believe that the LDRD program is 
still a necessary tool to recruit and retain scientists?

GAO Response: 

Officials at NNSA laboratories told us that LDRD remains a necessary 
tool to recruit and retain top scientists because their program work 
provides little opportunity for basic scientific research. Similarly, 
INEEL officials told us that LDRD plays a major role in attracting and 
retaining the most qualified scientists and engineers at their 
laboratory. In comparison, officials at Office of Science laboratories 
believe that LDRD is important for recruiting and retaining scientists; 
however, they noted its role is less essential for their laboratories 
because they primarily perform basic research.

NNSA laboratory managers told us that LDRD is an essential tool for 
recruiting and retaining scientists for several reasons. As a 
recruiting tool, the LDRD program is vital because the mission of the 
NNSA laboratories--to perform applied research to develop nuclear 
weapons technologies--does not readily attract qualified new hires. The 
LDRD program has served as a stepping stone for the NNSA laboratories 
to attract and hire many scientists by supporting from nearly one-half 
to two-thirds of the post doctoral researchers at the laboratories. For 
example, one of the three LDRD program components at Los Alamos 
National Laboratory makes awards to research proposals specifically 
targeted at post-doctoral candidates. As a result, 262 (61 percent) of 
the 427 post-doctoral scientists charged substantial amounts of time to 
LDRD. According to NNSA laboratory managers, post-doctoral scientists 
who work at their laboratories are more likely to seek permanent 
employment at the laboratory, and LDRD projects provide opportunities 
for laboratory managers to evaluate the post-doctoral scientists for 
future employment. In some cases, the LDRD program also provides 
meaningful work opportunities at the NNSA laboratories while newly 
hired scientists wait to receive their security clearances. In 
addition, the LDRD program provides opportunities for collaboration 
with universities and other research organizations, thereby providing a 
pipeline for new employees. As a retention tool, LDRD provides 
scientists with funding to perform basic and applied research on the 
cutting edge of their field, improve their technical skills, and make 
scientific contributions in their fields.

INEEL managers told us that the LDRD program funded 55 percent of the 
post-doctoral candidates supported by the laboratory in fiscal year 
2002. The managers attributed about 40 percent of the scientists and 
engineers hired at INEEL in the past 4 years to investments in LDRD.

Managers at the five Office of Science laboratories told us that the 
LDRD program is important for their efforts to recruit and retain 
scientists. However, they noted that the LDRD program is less important 
to their laboratories than it is to the NNSA laboratories, because 
their laboratories mainly fund basic research. According to 
laboratories managers, it is basic research and the opportunity for 
technological advances--whether performed as LDRD or as program work--
that attracts and maintains the interest of the top scientists. As a 
result, the Office of Science laboratories typically devote, at most, 
slightly over 4 percent of their R&D and other operating funds to LDRD 
each year and have substantially smaller LDRD programs than the NNSA 
laboratories.

Question 11: How much has each of the nine DOE laboratories spent on 
LDRD from fiscal year 1998 through fiscal year 2003, and which federal 
agencies' funds have been used and in what amounts?

GAO Response: 

For the 6 years from fiscal year 1998 through fiscal year 2003, DOE's 
nine laboratories spent a total of $1.8 billion, or an average of $296 
million per year, on LDRD. In fiscal year 2003, the laboratories 
received $7.7 billion from DOE and other federal agencies, through 
reimbursement to DOE, and spent $347 million, or 4.5 percent, on LDRD. 
Los Alamos National Laboratory, Sandia National Laboratories, and 
Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory accounted for $257 million, or 
74 percent, of the LDRD funds. DOE, DOD, and the intelligence agencies 
have been the primary sources of LDRD funding, accounting for 96 
percent of the federal support in fiscal year 2003.

Table 2 shows that the nine laboratories received $7.7 billion from DOE 
and other federal agencies for their R&D and other operating expenses 
in fiscal year 2003. Specifically, DOE and DOD provided $7.3 billion, 
or 96 percent, of the federal funding that the laboratories received. 
NIH, NRC, and NASA provided $190 million, or 2.5 percent, of the 
funding. DOT and DHS provided only $12.6 million and $9.4 million, 
respectively, for work at the DOE laboratories.

allocated to LDRD $347 million, or 4.5 percent, of the $7.7 billion 
they received from DOE and other federal sources, through reimbursement 
to DOE. Los Alamos National Laboratory, Sandia National Laboratories, 
and Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory accounted for $257 million, 
or 74 percent, of the $347 million. DOE's appropriations accounted for 
$293 million, or 84 percent, of the LDRD funding from federal sources, 
while $54 million, or 16 percent, originated from other federal 
agencies, through reimbursement to DOE. DOD and the intelligence 
agencies accounted for $41 million, or 12 percent. NIH, NRC, and NASA 
together accounted for $7.5 million, or 2 percent.

Appendix 1 provides data on each laboratory's total R&D spending and 
LDRD spending for DOE and other federal agencies, through reimbursement 
to DOE, for fiscal years 1998 through 2001, and appendix II provides 
more detailed data on each laboratory's total R&D spending and LDRD 
spending by subagency for fiscal years 2002 and 2003. The funding 
amounts for prior fiscal years are presented in fiscal year 2003 
dollars.

Agency Comments: 

We provided DOE with a draft of this report for its review and comment. 
In written comments, DOE agreed with the report. (See app. III.) DOE 
also provided comments to improve the report's technical accuracy, 
which we incorporated as appropriate.

Scope and Methodology: 

To assess DOE's statutory authority for charging other federal agencies 
for LDRD, we researched and analyzed statutes and legislative histories 
and referred to principles of appropriations law. To identify 
laboratory-initiated research programs similar to LDRD at other federal 
agencies' laboratories, we interviewed cognizant officials within DOD, 
DHS, DOT, NASA, NIH, and NRC. Through their payments to DOE, these 
federal agencies were among the primary sources of LDRD funding 
generated from R&D performed for non-DOE agencies from fiscal years 
1998 through 2003.

To examine DOE's policies and procedures for ensuring that its 
laboratories spend LDRD funds in ways that benefit the requesting 
agencies' programs and are consistent with their appropriation acts, we 
evaluated DOE's implementing order and documents for the LDRD program 
and interviewed cognizant officials at DOE and obtained information 
from its nine contractor-operated laboratories regarding the actions 
they have taken to improve the program's accountability. In addition, 
we contacted cognizant officials in the Office of the CFO and/or the 
Office of General Counsel in DOD, DOT, NASA, NIH, and NRC to determine 
whether the funding structure of the LDRD program presented issues for 
their compliance with statutory or appropriations requirements. These 
five agencies, through their reimbursements to DOE, were among the 
primary sources of LDRD funding at the nine DOE laboratories from 
fiscal years 1998 through 2003. We also contacted cognizant officials 
in the Office of the CFO and the Science and Technology Directorate in 
DHS because of its special relationship with DOE's laboratories.

To assess whether the LDRD program is a necessary tool for recruiting 
and retaining laboratory scientists, we obtained information from 
cognizant officials at each of DOE's nine laboratories about the role 
that LDRD plays in recruiting and retaining scientists and obtained 
documentation. We also reviewed laboratories' information on the 
participation of post-doctoral scientists and others in LDRD research.

To provide data on the sources and amounts of LDRD funding, we obtained 
data from each laboratory on its operating and LDRD funds for fiscal 
year 1998 through fiscal year 2003. Specifically, the laboratories 
provided financial data for each of DOE's major program budgets and for 
each federal agency that, in a given year, funded more than $1 million 
in R&D through DOE's Work for Others program. Because the laboratories' 
prior fiscal year data were in nominal dollars, we converted their 
current dollars to constant fiscal year 2003 dollars using deflators 
for nondefense from the Office of Management and Budget's Budget of the 
United States Government, Fiscal Year 2005, Historical Tables. We also 
obtained from key database officials responses to a series of questions 
focused on data reliability covering issues such as data entry access, 
quality control procedures, and the accuracy and completeness of the 
data. Follow-up questions were added whenever necessary. In addition, 
we reviewed all data provided by the laboratories, investigated all 
instances where we had questions regarding issues such as categories or 
amounts, and made corrections as needed. Based on this work, we 
determined that the financial data provided were sufficiently reliable 
for the purposes of our report. We did not assess the reliability of 
the fiscal year 1992 LDRD funding total, which was used for background 
purposes only.

As arranged with your offices, unless you publicly announce its 
contents earlier, we plan no further distribution of this report until 
30 days after the date of this letter. At that time, we will send 
copies to the Secretary of Energy, the Director of the Office of 
Management and Budget, and other interested parties. We will also make 
copies available to others on request. In addition, the report will be 
available at no charge on the GAO Web site at 
[Hyperlink, http://www.gao.gov.].

FOOTNOTES

[1] Among the other laws that DOE cites as general authority for LDRD 
are the Energy Reorganization Act of 1974, which created the Energy 
Research and Development Administration to carry out general basic 
research activities; the Energy Research and Development Administration 
Appropriation Authorization for Fiscal Year 1977 (codified at 42 U.S.C. 
 5817a), which provided authority for any government-owned, 
contractor-operated laboratory to use a reasonable amount of its 
operating budget to fund employee-suggested projects up to the pilot 
stage of development; and the Department of Energy Organization Act, 
which placed the Energy Research and Development Administration's 
authorities under DOE and directed DOE to carry out an energy research 
program. See DOE Order 413.2A.

[10] Although Lincoln Laboratory also performs R&D for the Federal 
Aviation Administration, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric 
Administration, and NASA, funding from these agencies does not support 
Lincoln's Directed Defense Research and Engineering program.

organizations.

[13] DOE's pricing policy states: "Consistent with the Department of 
Energy's (DOE) full cost recovery policy, DOE collects, as part of its 
standard indirect cost rate, a Laboratory Directed Research and 
Development (LDRD) cost. Based on the amount of funds accepted for this 
project, $___ represents an estimated amount that will be used for LDRD 
efforts. The Department of Energy believes that LDRD efforts provide 
opportunities in research that are instrumental in maintaining cutting-
edge science capabilities that benefit all of the customers at the 
laboratory. The Department will conclude that by providing funds to DOE 
to perform work, you acknowledge that such activities are beneficial to 
your organization and consistent with appropriations acts that provide 
funds to you."

[14] NRC officials did not express concern about the LDRD program and 
its funding; however, they suggested that an agency could better 
determine whether LDRD benefits its mission if DOE improved its 
notification procedure by annually (1) providing a single notification 
signed by DOE's CFO and (2) including information about LDRD activities 
at those laboratories where the agency funds work.

[15] DOE provided DHS's CFO office with a copy of DOE Notice 481.1A 
regarding reimbursable work for DHS that included the February 28, 
2003, Memorandum of Agreement between DOE and DHS, explaining how DHS 
work will be funded and conducted at DOE's laboratories. 

[16] The requirements of the Secretary's April 2002 memorandum 
regarding notification to other federal sponsors and their subsequent 
certifications that LDRD projects benefit their programs do not apply 
to grants performed under the June 1998 Memorandum of Understanding 
between NIH and DOE.

Performance Reporting Could Aid Oversight of Laboratory-Directed R&D 
Program, GAO-01-927 (Washington, D.C.: Sept. 28, 2001).

GAO's Mission: 

The General Accounting Office, the investigative arm of Congress, 
exists to support Congress in meeting its constitutional 
responsibilities and to help improve the performance and accountability 
of the federal government for the American people. GAO examines the use 
of public funds; evaluates federal programs and policies; and provides 
analyses, recommendations, and other assistance to help Congress make 
informed oversight, policy, and funding decisions. GAO's commitment to 
good government is reflected in its core values of accountability, 
integrity, and reliability.

Obtaining Copies of GAO Reports and Testimony: 

The fastest and easiest way to obtain copies of GAO documents at no 
cost is through the Internet. GAO's Web site ( www.gao.gov ) contains 
abstracts and full-text files of current reports and testimony and an 
expanding archive of older products. The Web site features a search 
engine to help you locate documents using key words and phrases. You 
can print these documents in their entirety, including charts and other 
graphics.

Each day, GAO issues a list of newly released reports, testimony, and 
correspondence. GAO posts this list, known as "Today's Reports," on its 
Web site daily. The list contains links to the full-text document 
files. To have GAO e-mail this list to you every afternoon, go to 
www.gao.gov and select "Subscribe to e-mail alerts" under the "Order 
GAO Products" heading.

Order by Mail or Phone: 

The first copy of each printed report is free. Additional copies are $2 
each. A check or money order should be made out to the Superintendent 
of Documents. GAO also accepts VISA and Mastercard. Orders for 100 or 
more copies mailed to a single address are discounted 25 percent. 
Orders should be sent to:
