COMMITTEE BUDGET REVIEW PROCESS

During its review of the fiscal year 2018 budget request and execution of appropriations for fiscal year 2017, the Subcommittee on 

Defense held a total of six hearings and six formal briefings during 

the period of March 2017 to June 2017. Hearings were held in open 

session, except when the security classification of the material to 

be discussed presented no alternative but to conduct those hearings 

in executive or closed session. 

INTRODUCTION

The Committee recommendation for total fiscal year 2018 Department of Defense funding is $658,114,519,000, which includes 

$584,180,519,000 in base funding and $73,934,000,000 for overseas 

contingency operations/global war on terrorism funding in title IX. 

The Committee provides $28,237,243,000 above the request so that 

the Department of Defense can accelerate its efforts to restore national defense to meet the increasing challenges around the world. 

The Committee recommendation heeds the counsel of the Secretary of Defense, the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, the 

leadership of the military Services, and other national security experts, all of whom have urged the Committee to provide funding for 

the national defense that is sufficient, stable, and timely. The Committee is increasingly concerned with the deterioration of military 

readiness for the full spectrum of conflict as well as the dire need 

for modernization to maintain the United States technological advantage, including a credible strategic deterrent. 

The operational tempo maintained by the military since the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks, combined with the budgetary instability of the past several years, has steered the armed forces 

into an unsustainable cycle in which readiness is consumed at least 

as fast as it is created. Moreover, this readiness is consumed in 

conflicts that require different technologies and skill sets than 

those that senior military leaders estimate will be needed in the 

next ten to twenty years. Just as a national defense oriented toward a Cold War, a garrison-based posture left the military somewhat ill prepared for the expeditionary and counterinsurgency-focused nature of recent conflicts, the recent emphasis on dangerous 

but highly asymmetrical adversaries has required the military to 

delay or trade away the capabilities that will be needed to counter 

peer and near-peer competitors that have been aggressively investing in military technology to counter or reverse United States 

dominance in all domains. This factor has compounded a growing 

deficit of modernization that can be traced back to the ‘‘procurement holiday’’ of the 1990s. 

An effective military force is difficult to build yet easy to expend. 

Based upon the advice of the military and the Intelligence Community, the Committee does not foresee an international security situation in which the expenditure of military readiness will slacken 

enough to allow existing funding levels for national defense to 

catch up. Therefore, the Committee provides the additional resources that will increase national defense funding well above the 

five percent annual growth that the Secretary of Defense and the 

Service leaders say is necessary to exit the current cycle of regression and truly begin restoring the national defense. 

4 

To achieve this, the Committee has funded the investments in 

near-term readiness and long-term technological dominance requested by the Department, including authorized end strength increases, enhanced training for full spectrum conflict, weapon system maintenance and sustainment, the repair and improvement of 

neglected infrastructure, and research and development programs 

that will preserve asymmetric advantages. In addition, the Committee has identified shortfalls in the request, in particular with 

regard to procurement of existing in-production weapon systems 

that will preserve capacity, provide new capability, and allow for 

the gradual replacement of systems that are increasingly expensive 

to sustain due to dwindling supplies of spare parts and subsystem 

obsolescence. The Committee’s proposed investments have been 

guided by the unfunded priorities lists submitted to the Congress, 

the needs of the reserve components, and the acknowledged need 

to preserve industrial base capacity. 

The Committee recommendation balances the requirements of 

national defense with the imperative of fiscal responsibility and 

congressional oversight. The Committee has reviewed the budget 

request in detail and identified programs where reductions are possible without adversely impacting the warfighter or the restoration 

of national defense. Examples of such reductions include programs 

that have been terminated or restructured since the budget was 

submitted, savings from favorable contract pricing adjustments, 

contract or schedule delays resulting in savings, unjustified new 

programs and cost increases, funds requested ahead of need for the 

year of budget execution, projected or historical underexecution, rescissions of unneeded prior year funds, and reductions that are authorized in the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 

2018. 

NATIONAL DEFENSE RESTORATION FUND

Pursuant to the concerns of the Committee regarding the state 

of the military and the risks to national security, the Committee 

recommendation includes $28,600,000,000 for a National Defense 

Restoration Fund. These funds are allocated to military personnel, 

operation and maintenance, procurement, and research, development, test and evaluation accounts. The Committee expects that 

the Department of Defense will complete a new National Defense 

Strategy later in 2017, which will inform the Department’s budget 

requests for fiscal year 2019 and beyond. The Committee strongly 

believes that it is necessary to complete the new strategy to inform 

the allocation of additional funding above the President’s budget 

request, and that it is imperative that funding be available sooner 

to implement the new strategy upon completion in fiscal year 2018. 

The Committee therefore directs that the additional resources provided for the National Defense Restoration Fund be used to further 

this strategy as the Secretary of Defense determines in consultation with Congress. The Committee recommendation does not prejudice the use of the National Defense Restoration Fund by allocating funds to specific programs or projects, but requires the Secretary of Defense to submit allocation plans for the use of these 

funds, including a detailed budget justification for the use of such 

funds and a description of how such investments are necessary to 

5 

implement the strategy, not fewer than 30 days prior to making 

transfers from the funds. 

DEFINITION OF PROGRAM, PROJECT, AND ACTIVITY

For the purposes of the Balanced Budget and Emergency Deficit 

Control Act of 1985 (Public Law 99–177), as amended by the Balanced Budget and Emergency Deficit Control Reaffirmation Act of 

1987 (Public Law 100–119), and by the Budget Enforcement Act of 

1990 (Public Law 101–508), the terms ‘‘program, project, and activity’’ for appropriations contained in this Act shall be defined as the 

most specific level of budget items identified in the Department of 

Defense Appropriations Act, 2018, the related classified annexes 

and Committee reports, and the P–1 and R–1 budget justification 

documents as subsequently modified by congressional action. 

The following exception to the above definition shall apply: the 

military personnel and the operation and maintenance accounts, 

for which the term ‘‘program, project, and activity’’ is defined as the 

appropriations accounts contained in the Department of Defense 

Appropriations Act. 

At the time the President submits the budget request for fiscal 

year 2019, the Secretary of Defense is directed to transmit to the 

congressional defense committees budget justification documents to 

be known as the ‘‘M–1’’ and ‘‘O–1’’ which shall identify, at the 

budget activity, activity group, and sub-activity group level, the 

amounts requested by the President to be appropriated to the Department of Defense for military personnel and operation and 

maintenance in any budget request, or amended budget request, 

for fiscal year 2019. 

REPROGRAMMING GUIDANCE

The Committee directs the Secretary of Defense to continue to 

follow the reprogramming guidance for acquisition accounts as 

specified in the report accompanying the House version of the Department of Defense Appropriations bill for Fiscal Year 2008 

(House Report 110–279). For operation and maintenance accounts, 

the Secretary of Defense shall continue to follow the reprogramming guidelines specified in the conference report accompanying 

H.R. 3222, the Department of Defense Appropriations Act, 2008. 

The dollar threshold for reprogramming funds shall remain at 

$10,000,000 for military personnel; $15,000,000 for operation and 

maintenance; $20,000,000 for procurement; and $10,000,000 for research, development, test and evaluation. 

Also, the Committee directs the Under Secretary of Defense 

(Comptroller) to continue to provide the congressional defense committees annual DD Form 1416 reports for titles I and II and quarterly, spreadsheet-based DD Form 1416 reports for Service and defense-wide accounts in titles III and IV of this Act. Reports for titles III and IV shall comply with guidance specified in the explanatory statement accompanying the Department of Defense Appropriations Act, 2006. The Department shall continue to follow the 

limitation that prior approval reprogrammings are set at either the 

specified dollar threshold or 20 percent of the procurement or research, development, test and evaluation line, whichever is less. 

These thresholds are cumulative from the base for reprogramming 

value as modified by any adjustments. Therefore, if the combined 

6 

value of transfers into or out of a military personnel (M–1), an operation and maintenance (O–1), a procurement (P–1), or a research, 

development, test and evaluation (R–1) line exceeds the identified 

threshold, the Secretary of Defense must submit a prior approval 

reprogramming to the congressional defense committees. In addition, guidelines on the application of prior approval reprogramming 

procedures for congressional special interest items are established 

elsewhere in this report. 

FUNDING INCREASES

The funding increases outlined in the tables for each appropriation account shall be provided only for the specific purposes indicated in the tables. 

CONGRESSIONAL SPECIAL INTEREST ITEMS

Items for which additional funds have been provided or items for 

which funding is specifically reduced as shown in the project level 

tables or in paragraphs using the phrase ‘‘only for’’ or ‘‘only to’’ in 

this report are congressional special interest items for the purpose 

of the Base for Reprogramming (DD Form 1414). Each of these 

items must be carried on the DD Form 1414 at the stated amount, 

as specifically addressed in the Committee report. 

CLASSIFIED ANNEX

Adjustments to the classified programs are addressed in the classified annex accompanying this report.

BUDGET JUSTIFICATION MATERIAL

The Committee is extremely disappointed in the quality of the 

budget justification exhibits submitted in support of the fiscal year 

2018 budget request. The justification material was lacking numerous supporting exhibits critical to the oversight responsibility of the 

Committee and those exhibits that were provided were riddled with 

mistakes. Some exhibits were consolidated and the justification for 

some programs was completely omitted. The submission gives the 

appearance that the Department of Defense is deciding which programs should or should not be reviewed by the Committee. The 

poor justification, combined with the extreme tardiness of the submission, is a source of frustration for the Committee. The oversight 

conducted by the Committee must be a collaborative effort with the 

Administration. The Committee directs the Under Secretary of Defense (Comptroller) to meet with the House and Senate Appropriations Committees not later than September 30, 2017 to explain the 

reason for the sub-standard justification materials and to discuss 

measures to prevent this same phenomenon in future budget submissions. 

SERVICE UNFUNDED REQUIREMENTS LISTS

The Committee recognizes that each military Service submits an 

annual unfunded requirements list to the congressional defense 

committees. These lists allow the Committee to gain greater insight 

into the Services requirements that may have been excluded from 

the budget request due to budgetary constraints. However, the 

Committee is dismayed that the military Services did not each provide one consolidated list of requirements for fiscal year 2018, instead providing categorized lists of items, thereby obscuring the 

true prioritization of the requests. The Committee directs the 

Chiefs of Staff of the Army, Navy, Marine Corps, and Air Force to 

provide their individual Service unfunded requirements in one consolidated priority list for fiscal year 2019 and in subsequent budget 

submissions. 

CYBERSPACE ACTIVITIES

The recommendation fully funds the fiscal year 2018 base budget 

requirement of $7,940,406,000 for the Army, Navy, Marine Corps, 

Air Force, and the defense agencies cyberspace activities, an increase of $1,242,289,000 over the fiscal year 2017 enacted level. 

The Department of Defense Chief Information Officer, in coordination with the Under Secretary of Defense (Comptroller) and the 

Service Secretaries, is working to modify the cyberspace activities 

exhibits included in the Department of Defense classified cyberspace activities information technology investment budget justification materials in order to provide increased visibility and clarity 

into the cyberspace activities funding requirements. The Under 

Secretary of Defense (Comptroller) and the Chief Information Officer are currently reviewing the cyberspace activities budget justification material and are directed to provide a proposal to the 

House and Senate Appropriations Committees not later than September 1, 2017 for how to clearly delineate the Department of Defense cyber investment activities as part of the budget justification 

material beginning with the fiscal year 2019 budget submission. 

10 

As part of its fiscal year 2018 budget documentation, the Department of Navy established a unique cyber sub-activity group for operation and maintenance accounts, which the Committee believes 

will increase visibility and congressional oversight of requested 

funding for cyberspace activities. Beginning with the fiscal year 

2019 budget documentation, the Committee directs the Under Secretary of Defense (Comptroller), the Chief Information Officer, and 

the Service Secretaries to establish unique cyber sub-activity 

groups for operation and maintenance accounts and individual cost 

codes, projects, or program elements for procurement and research, 

development, test and evaluation accounts. 

The ‘‘Department of Defense Cyberspace Activities’’ table provided shows the amount of base funding provided to each Service 

and defense-wide account in fiscal years 2017 and 2018. Funding 

appropriated herein may be used only for cyberspace activities as 

defined by the classified cyberspace activities information technology investment budget request for fiscal year 2018. The Committee directs the Secretary of Defense to use normal prior approval reprogramming procedures to obligate funding appropriated 

to the operation and maintenance, procurement, or research, development, test and evaluation accounts for cyberspace activities for 

any purpose other than cyberspace activities. The Committee directs the Department of Defense Chief Information Officer to submit to the House and Senate Appropriations Committees two reports not later than May 30, 2018 and November 30, 2018, that 

provide the mid-year and end of fiscal year financial obligation and 

execution data for cyberspace activities for the previous and current fiscal years.

QUARTERLY CYBER OPERATIONS BRIEFING

The Committee directs the Secretary of Defense to provide quarterly briefings to the House and Senate Appropriations Committees 

on all named offensive and significant defensive military operations 

in cyberspace carried out by the Department of Defense not later 

than 30 days after the end of each fiscal quarter. 

PERSISTENT CYBER TRAINING ENVIRONMENT

The Committee recognizes that the Army is the executive agent 

of the persistent cyber training environment for the Department of 

Defense and the recommendation fully funds the budget request for 

fiscal year 2018. The Committee supports efforts associated with 

the rapid development of an up-to-date cyber training curriculum, 

cyber toolsets, and a realistic threat environment as well as efforts 

to create an adaptive cyber threat environment that accurately 

emulates enemy capabilities based on the latest data from the Intelligence Community. 

BIG DATA ANALYTICS STRATEGY

The Committee recognizes that data is an invaluable asset to the 

Department of Defense. Modern technology tools gained through 

hyper-scale cloud computing like big data analytics, machine-learning technologies, and artificial intelligence software represent an 

unprecedented opportunity to leverage this data, stay ahead of adversaries, and enable both offensive and defensive capabilities for 

the warfighter. The Committee directs the Secretary of Defense to 

conduct a review of the adoption of hyper-scale cloud computing in 

the Department of Defense and to provide a report detailing the results of the review to the congressional defense committees not 

later than 60 days after the enactment of this Act.

MILITARY PERSONNEL OVERVIEW

The Committee recommendation provides $132,977,586,000 for 

the military personnel accounts, which funds military pay and allowances, recruitment and retention initiatives, and overall quality 

of life programs for active duty, National Guard, and reserve personnel. The recommendation provides increased basic pay for all 

military personnel by 2.4 percent as authorized by current law, effective January 1, 2018. The Committee continues to encourage 

constructive evaluations of recruitment and retention programs, 

bonus and special pay incentives, and personnel benefit programs 

for fiscal year 2018. The Committee remains supportive of programs intended to enhance the morale and quality of life of military personnel and their families. 

SUMMARY OF END STRENGTH

The Committee recommendation provides an increase of 18,100 

in total end strength for the active forces and an increase of 9,700 

in total end strength for the Selected Reserve as compared to the 

fiscal year 2017 authorized levels. These totals reflect an increase 

of 17,000 in end strength above the request, to be allocated among 

the Services as the Secretary of Defense determines necessary to 

restore the Nation’s defense. The following tables summarize the 

Committee recommendations for end strength levels, both in the

REPROGRAMMING GUIDANCE FOR MILITARY PERSONNEL ACCOUNTS

The Committee directs the Secretary of Defense to submit the 

Base for Reprogramming (DD Form 1414) for each of the fiscal year 

2018 appropriation accounts not later than 60 days after the enactment of this Act. The Secretary of Defense is prohibited from executing any reprogramming or transfer of funds for any purpose 

other than originally appropriated until the aforementioned report 

is submitted to the House and Senate Appropriations Committees. 

The Committee directs the Secretary of Defense to use the normal prior approval reprogramming procedures to transfer funds in 

the Services’ military personnel accounts between budget activities 

in excess of $10,000,000. 

MILITARY PERSONNEL SPECIAL INTEREST ITEMS

Items for which additional funds have been provided or have 

been specifically reduced as shown in the project level tables or in 

paragraphs using the phrase ‘‘only for’’ or ‘‘only to’’ in this report 

are congressional special interest items for the purpose of the Base 

for Reprogramming (DD Form 1414). Each of these items must be 

carried on the DD Form 1414 at the stated amount as specifically 

addressed in the Committee report. Below threshold 

reprogrammings may not be used to either restore or reduce funding from congressional special interest items as identified on the 

DD Form 1414. 

SEXUAL ASSAULT PREVENTION AND RESPONSE

The Committee remains concerned by the ongoing epidemic of 

sexual assault in the military and at the Service academies and believes that this will persist until a change in culture occurs across 

all Services at every level. The Department of Defense provides an 

annual report to Congress which provides details on sexual assaults involving servicemembers. However, recent events make it 

clear that more action by the Department is necessary to combat 

this widespread problem. In addition to the annual report, the 

Committee directs the Secretary of Defense, in coordination with 

the Director of the Department of Defense Sexual Assault Prevention and Response Office, to jointly brief the House and Senate Appropriations Committees not later than 30 days after the enactment of this Act on actions that the Department is taking to address ongoing sexual assault scandals, as well as recent efforts to 

prevent, respond to, and adjudicate sexual assault cases. 

MINORITY OUTREACH AND OFFICER ACCESSIONS

Minorities remain underrepresented in the general officer ranks 

across the Services. To build a more diverse military, the Committee supports efforts to conduct outreach and recruiting programs focused on increasing officer accessions from Hispanic Serving Institutions, Historically Black Colleges and Universities, other 

Minority Serving Institutions, and minority communities and encourages the Secretary of Defense and the Service Secretaries to 

support such efforts with both personnel and resources. 

18 

CULTURAL SENSITIVITY TRAINING

The Committee recognizes that the Department of Defense and 

the Services have multiple cultural sensitivity training programs 

for military personnel. The Committee also believes in the importance of protecting servicemembers’ rights regarding religious exercise and ethnic heritage. As such, the Committee supports efforts 

to identify resource and personnel gaps that may exist in the Office 

of Diversity Management and Equal Opportunity of the Department of Defense as well as efforts to identify existing gaps in protections for new and prospective servicemembers. 

TRAUMA TRAINING PROGRAM

The Committee recognizes the valuable support that universities, 

hospitals, and other military partners provide by offering civilianbased emergency response trauma and critical care training, including public health, bio-environmental, and biomedical instruction to sustain capabilities of the National Guard Enhanced Response Forces Packages, National Guard Homeland Response 

Forces, and Army Reserve Consequence Management Response 

Forces. The Committee encourages the Director of the National 

Guard Bureau and the Chiefs of the reserve components to continue pursuing advanced trauma and public health training with 

these civilian partners in order to maintain unit readiness.

The Army recently validated a requirement to establish 21 additional cyber protection teams (CPTs) in the reserve component and 

to include the teams as part of the United States Cyber Command 

Cyber Mission Force. The Army National Guard is programmed to 

field 11 CPTs while the Army Reserve will field ten CPTs. The 

Committee remains supportive of this effort and recommends a 

total of $9,800,000, an increase of $1,800,000 over the budget request, in Military Personnel, Army National Guard and Operation 

and Maintenance, Army National Guard, to man, train, and equip 

the Army National Guard CPTs. 

The Committee supports Army Reserve efforts to engage with 

universities and the private sector to develop formal cyber publicprivate partnerships to further cyber training and employment. 

The Committee understands that the Army Reserve has experienced challenges in certifying the cyber public-private partnership 

program due to the classified nature of the cyber common technical 

core course. The Committee encourages the Director of the National Security Agency/Commander of the United States Cyber 

Command to work with the Chief of the Army Reserve to provide 

a pathway for certification of this program. 

RESERVE COMPONENTS FULL-TIME SUPPORT

CYBER AIR FORCE SPECIALTY CODE

While the Army and the Marine Corps have established cyberunique military occupational specialties, the Air Force has not created a cyber-unique Air Force Specialty Code (AFSC) for officers. 

The Committee is aware that the Air Force has experienced challenges in its efforts to recruit and retain military personnel for its 

Cyber Mission Force and believes the establishment of a cyber 

AFSC could assist those efforts. 

The Committee directs the Secretary of the Air Force to conduct 

a review of the establishment of a cyber-unique AFSC, including if 

such a specialty code could help recruit and retain cyber military 

personnel. The Committee directs the Secretary of the Air Force to 

provide a report to the congressional defense committees on the results of this review and its findings not later than 90 days after 

the enactment of this Act.

REPROGRAMMING GUIDANCE FOR OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE

ACCOUNTS

The Committee directs the Secretary of Defense to submit the 

Base for Reprogramming (DD Form 1414) for each of the fiscal year 

2018 appropriation accounts not later than 60 days after the enactment of this Act. The Secretary of Defense is prohibited from executing any reprogramming or transfer of funds for any purpose 

other than originally appropriated until the aforementioned report 

is submitted to the House and Senate Appropriations Committees. 

The Committee directs the Secretary of Defense to use the normal prior approval reprogramming procedures to transfer funds in 

the Services’ operation and maintenance accounts between O–1 

budget activities in excess of $15,000,000. In addition, the Secretary of Defense should follow prior approval reprogramming procedures for transfers in excess of $15,000,000 out of the following 

budget sub-activities: 

Army: 

Maneuver units 

Modular support brigades 

Aviation assets 

Land forces operations support 

Force readiness operations support 

Land forces depot maintenance 

Base operations support 

Facilities sustainment, restoration, and modernization 

Specialized skill training 

Navy: 

Mission and other flight operations 

Fleet air training 

Aircraft depot maintenance 

Mission and other ship operations 

Ship depot maintenance 

Facilities sustainment, restoration, and modernization 

Marine Corps: 

Depot maintenance 

Facilities sustainment, restoration, and modernization 

Air Force: 

Primary combat forces 

Combat enhancement forces 

Depot maintenance 

Facilities sustainment, restoration, and modernization 

Contractor logistics support and system support 

Flying hour program 

Air Force Reserve: 

Depot maintenance 

Air National Guard: 

Depot maintenance 

Additionally, the Secretary of Defense should follow prior approval reprogramming procedures for transfers in excess of 

$15,000,000 into the following budget sub-activity: 

Operation and Maintenance, Army National Guard: 

Other personnel support/recruiting and advertising 

56 

With respect to Operation and Maintenance, Defense-Wide, proposed transfers of funds to or from the levels specified for defense 

agencies in excess of $15,000,000 shall be subject to prior approval 

reprogramming procedures. 

Funding for Special Operations Command (SOCOM) operation 

and maintenance is requested in three SOCOM-only sub-activity 

groups in three budget activity groups as part of the Operation and 

Maintenance, Defense-Wide account. SOCOM has further identified 

sub-categories under each sub-activity group which separates requested funding by activity or function. While this may increase 

visibility into the budget request, the Committee remains concerned that execution of appropriated funding lacks transparency. 

Therefore, the Committee prohibits SOCOM from executing any 

above threshold or below threshold reprogramming, transfer of 

funds, or obligation of funds for any purpose other than originally 

appropriated in the 1PL2 sub-activity group in budget activity 1 

and the 3EV7 sub-activity group in budget activity 3 until the Secretary of Defense submits to the House and Senate Appropriations 

Committees a baseline for each of the sub-categories for the subactivity groups listed below. 

Further, for funds appropriated to SOCOM, the Committee directs the Secretary of Defense to follow prior approval reprogramming procedures for transfers in excess of $15,000,000 into or out 

of the following budget sub-activities: 

BA–01 Operating Forces 

Base support 

Combat development activities 

Communications 

Flight operations 

Force related training 

Intelligence 

Maintenance 

Management/operational headquarters 

Operational support

SPECIAL OPERATIONS COMMAND BUDGET EXECUTION

The Committee is concerned about the underexecution of appropriated operation and maintenance funds for the Special Operations Command. The Committee directs the Secretary of Defense 

to submit quarterly execution reports to the congressional defense 

committees not later than 30 days after the end of each quarter. 

The reporting shall be at the SOCOM-identified sub-categories 

under each sub-activity group. 

OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE SPECIAL INTEREST ITEMS

Items for which additional funds have been provided or have 

been specifically reduced as shown in the project level tables or in 

paragraphs using the phrase ‘‘only for’’ or ‘‘only to’’ in this report 

are congressional special interest items for the purpose of the Base 

57 

for Reprogramming (DD Form 1414). Each of these items must be 

carried on the DD Form 1414 at the stated amount as specifically 

addressed in the Committee report. Below threshold 

reprogrammings may not be used to either restore or reduce funding from congressional special interest items as identified on the 

DD Form 1414. 

INNOVATIVE READINESS TRAINING PROGRAM

The Committee supports innovative readiness training across the 

Services and encourages the active and reserve components to seek 

additional opportunities to increase military readiness while simultaneously providing quality services to communities throughout the 

United States. To better realize the full potential of innovative 

readiness training, the Committee encourages the Service Secretaries, in conjunction with the Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense (Reserve Integration), to streamline the application process 

and to ensure timely consideration of requests for partnerships. 

ONLINE EDUCATION

The Committee recognizes the importance of education programs, 

including online programs, offered to servicemembers and their 

families. Furthering education by providing servicemembers access 

to these programs helps improve readiness across the Department 

of Defense. The Committee encourages the Secretary of Defense to 

continue supporting the use of online education programs. 

BASE SUPPLY CENTERS

The Committee recognizes the important role disabled persons 

play at base supply centers on military installations. The Committee directs the Under Secretary of Defense (Comptroller) to submit a report to the House and Senate Appropriations Committees 

not later than 180 days after the enactment of this Act that describes the current funding profile for base supply centers across 

the Department of Defense and the total cost associated with the 

supplies and services purchased across the Department in fiscal 

years 2016 and 2017 from nonprofit agencies predominantly employing people with disabilities. 

DEFENSE LANGUAGE INSTITUTE

The Committee recognizes that the Defense Language Institute 

Foreign Language Center’s (DLIFLC) role as the Department of 

Defense’s primary foreign language educator is vital to national security. The Committee encourages the Secretary of Defense to ensure that the operational language needs for both the combatant 

commands and the intelligence community are fully addressed by 

ensuring that all DLIFLC stakeholders are involved in resourcing 

decisions. 

The Committee directs the Under Secretary of Defense (Policy) to 

submit a report to the congressional defense committees not later 

than 90 days after the enactment of this Act that details the total 

funds appropriated for DLIFLC for fiscal years 2015, 2016, and 

2017 and describes how those funds were obligated each fiscal year. 

58 

Furthermore, the Committee encourages the Director of the 

DLIFLC to find ways to work collaboratively with Hispanic Serving 

Institutions, Historically Black Colleges and Universities, and 

other Minority Serving Institutions. 

NATIONAL SECURITY EDUCATION PROGRAM

The Committee recognizes that, in partnership with universities 

across the country, the National Security Education Program provides training for servicemembers and civilians in languages and 

cultures critical to national security. The Language Flagship Program has successfully recruited language proficient students by utilizing partnerships dedicated to creating pathways into the program. The Committee encourages the Secretary of Defense to continue its support for these programs to ensure warfighters receive 

the language and culture training needed to effectively complete 

missions. Furthermore, the Committee encourages the Director of 

the National Security Education Program to find ways to work collaboratively with Hispanic Serving Institutions, Historically Black 

Colleges and Universities, and other Minority Serving Institutions 

to ensure a diversity of analysts with proficiency in critical languages. 

MAINTENANCE OF REAL PROPERTY

The Committee directs the Under Secretary of Defense (Policy), 

in conjunction with the Service Secretaries, to submit a report to 

the congressional defense committees not later than 90 days after 

the enactment of this Act that outlines the total real property with 

a zero percent utilization rate of five years or more currently accounted for in the Department of Defense real property inventory 

database and assesses the feasibility of conveying or selling this 

property. 

TUITION ASSISTANCE AND MILITARY SPOUSE CAREER ADVANCEMENT

The Committee understands that there have been instances in 

which Department of Defense tuition assistance funds and military 

spouse career advancement accounts funding have been used by 

servicemembers and their spouses to enroll in educational institutions that may not award degrees which afford servicemembers and 

their spouses the opportunities they intended to attain, thereby potentially wasting funds within the account. Therefore, the Committee directs the Under Secretary of Defense (Policy), in conjunction with the Service Secretaries, to submit a report to the congressional defense committees not later than 90 days after the enactment of this Act that describes the steps the Department is taking 

to ensure that servicemembers are given appropriate information 

about educational institutions, including for-profit colleges, with 

graduation rates significantly below the national average. 

CYBERSPACE OPERATIONS

The Committee continues to support efforts in the Department of 

Defense and the Intelligence Community to partner with small 

businesses through the Small Business Innovation Research Program and is aware of Department-wide efforts to provide mentoring 

59 

and outreach services for small businesses competing for contracts, 

with a focus on minority-owned and HUBZone businesses. 

The Committee also encourages initiatives to specifically reach 

out to minority-serving public institutions, including Hispanic Serving Institutions and Historically Black Colleges and Universities, to 

build a pipeline for scientists and engineers from minority communities to enter the cyber workforce upon graduation. Workforce 

training for cybersecurity professionals is imperative and the Committee encourages the Secretary of Defense to support 

servicemembers as they transition from the military into cybersecurity careers in the private sector. 

Additionally, with emerging cyber threats in the Asia Pacific region, the Committee encourages the Secretary of Defense to work 

with the Director of the National Security Agency and the Directors of other federal agencies, universities, and private sector leaders to increase cybersecurity operations, training, and education focused on threats to the security in the Asia Pacific region. 

The Committee also encourages current efforts in the Department of Defense, through its Cyberspace Workforce Framework, to 

create standardized work roles for its cybersecurity workforce and 

baselines for knowledge, skills, and abilities and encourages the 

Secretary of Defense to continue to inform the congressional defense committees on the implementation of the Framework and any 

challenges associated with its implementation. 

JOINT REGIONAL SECURITY STACKS

The Committee recognizes the Defense Information Systems 

Agency’s (DISA) ongoing efforts to protect sensitive government 

data from unauthorized access and disclosure. Deployment of 

DISA’s Joint Regional Security Stacks will improve the security, effectiveness, and efficiency of the Department of Defense Information Network. The Committee provides additional funding to support the Joint Regional Security Stacks and supports DISA’s efforts 

to continue to investigate and test capabilities to protect the classified and unclassified Department of Defense Information Network 

against insider threats. 

ENERGY SECURITY OF OVERSEAS MILITARY INSTALLATIONS

The Committee supports efforts to defend against potential energy supply disruptions, particularly at overseas military locations. 

The Committee believes that the Department of Defense must 

maintain the ability to sustain operations in the event that energy 

supply disruptions occur, particularly at facilities that are reliant 

on foreign-sourced energy. 

The Committee is concerned about potential actions by foreign 

countries, including the Russian Federation, to use the control of 

energy supply lines in a hostile or weaponized manner against the 

Services or allied forces. The Committee recognizes that a number 

of European countries that host permanent and rotational armed 

forces rely extensively on natural gas and oil from the Russian 

Federation. The Committee supports measures by the Department 

to maintain a resilient defense posture overseas, including in the 

United States European Command area of responsibility, by establishing and maintaining diversity in its military installation energy 

60 

supplies through the diversification of fuel sources and the consideration of domestically sourced energy sources. 

The Committee directs the Secretary of Defense to submit a report to the congressional defense committees not later than 180 

days after the enactment of this Act on the potential vulnerabilities 

to energy supply disruptions at overseas locations hosting permanent and rotational United States armed forces, including those 

providing medical care, considerations currently being given to utilize energy sources from the United States at overseas military installations, including medical centers on military installations, and 

efforts the Department is currently taking to mitigate the risk of 

potential energy supply disruptions at overseas military installations, including considerations the Department is taking to mitigate such risks when reviewing energy supply options at such installations.

AIRCRAFT DEPOT MAINTENANCE

The Navy and Marine Corps have a significant backlog of F/A– 

18 strike fighters that have aged prematurely due to prolonged 

combat operations. The Committee recognizes that the Navy is endeavoring to reset these aircraft to extend their service life but understands the combined reset and life extension effort has overtaxed the existing government depots. The recommendation includes additional funding to fill shortfalls, which includes aircraft 

depot maintenance. 

The Committee believes that it is necessary to maximize depot 

maintenance to enable more aircraft to be placed in-work and restored to flyable assets. The Committee directs the Secretary of the 

Navy to submit a report to the congressional defense committees 

not later than 60 days after the enactment of this Act that describes its plan to utilize resources provided to address the maintenance backlog using the capacity of the industrial base. 

PUBLIC SHIPYARDS

Norfolk Naval Shipyard, Pearl Harbor Naval Shipyard, Portsmouth Naval Shipyard, and Puget Sound Naval Shipyard play a 

vital role in the Navy’s success, conducting the depot maintenance 

and repairs that are crucial for the Navy to operate safely at sea. 

The Navy’s public shipyards require facility improvements and 

modernization to ensure continuity of performance for fleet maintenance schedules. Facility upgrades and modernization will increase 

safety for federal employees and contribute to the readiness of the 

fleet. As such, the Committee recommendation includes additional 

funding for the Navy’s Facilities Sustainment, Restoration and 

Modernization sub-activity. 

FACILITIES SUSTAINMENT, RESTORATION AND MODERNIZATION

The Committee is aware that Navy Facilities Sustainment, Restoration and Modernization (FSRM) has been funded below its 

sustainment model for multiple fiscal years. The Committee recommendation includes additional funding again in fiscal year 2018 

for the Navy to better address FSRM requirements and more effectively meet the Secretary of Defense funding sustainment model. 

The Committee understands that the Navy has a substantial inventory of unoccupied housing units across its installations that 

will continue to be uninhabitable until repairs are made to these 

units. The Committee encourages the Secretary of the Navy to take 

efforts to address the current inventory of unoccupied housing 

units.

AIR EDUCATION AND TRAINING COMMAND

The Committee recognizes the adverse impact that flooding and 

other infrastructure challenges have had on Air Education and 

Training Command (AETC) facilities, equipment, operations, and 

training. The Committee also recognizes the steps that the Air 

Force has taken to begin mitigating the damage through multi-year 

projects. The Committee supports these efforts and encourages the 

Secretary of the Air Force to utilize a similar approach in addressing additional mitigation efforts at the AETC. 

COMBINED AIR OPERATIONS CENTER

The Committee directs the Secretary of the Air Force to submit 

a report to the congressional defense committees not later than 90 

days after the enactment of this Act that describes the feasibility 

of utilizing the Combined Air Operations Center-Experimental 

(CAOC–X) at Joint Base Langley-Eustis as the planning and execution command and control facility for large-scale joint exercises on 

the East Coast, including the cost savings associated with utilizing 

the CAOC–X for this purpose and the potential to conduct additional exercises on the East Coast. 

ADVANCED TACTICAL AIR TRAINING

The Committee recognizes the importance of advanced tactical 

air training and advanced adversarial air training for combat pilot 

proficiency and to improve readiness levels. The Committee encourages the Secretary of the Air Force to continue integrating these 

capabilities into the Air Force training regimen. The recommendation includes additional funding to address readiness and the Committee encourages the Secretary of the Air Force to support advanced tactical air training and advanced adversarial air training. 

REMOTELY PILOTED AIRCRAFT

In order to more effectively meet the demand for Remotely Piloted Aircraft (RPA) pilots, the Committee directs the Secretary of 

the Air Force to submit a report to the congressional defense committees not later than 90 days after the enactment of this Act that 

describes the feasibility of university-based training for Air Force 

ROTC cadets as RPA pilots and sensor operators.

ENERGY EFFICIENCY PROJECTS

While the Committee is encouraged by ongoing efforts within the 

Department of Defense to pursue energy efficiencies, the Committee is concerned that the Department’s current procurement 

process for lighting upgrades effectively limits the participation of 

smaller vendors. The Committee encourages the Secretary of Defense to explore the use of alternative industrial lighting upgrades 

projects across the Department. 

DEFENSE CONTRACTING MANAGEMENT AGENCY

The Committee directs the Director of the Defense Contracting 

Management Agency to submit a report to the congressional defense committees not later than 90 days after the enactment of this 

Act that describes a plan to foster the adoption, implementation, 

and verification of the Department of Defense’s revised item unique 

identification policy across the Department and the defense industrial base. The report shall include a detailed plan on new policies, 

procedures, staff training, and equipment necessary to ensure contract compliance with the item unique identification policy for all 

items that require unique item level traceability at any time in its 

lifecycle. 

DIGITAL WORKSPACE TECHNOLOGIES

The Committee recognizes that the use of digital workspace technologies can increase user productivity, enhance cybersecurity, and 

allow workforce flexibility. The Committee encourages the Secretary of Defense to explore multi-factor authentication solutions to 

strengthen the Department’s cybersecurity posture, including strategies and programs that reduce the total lifecycle costs of traditional legacy workspace infrastructure. 

DEFENSE LOGISTICS AGENCY

The Committee directs the Director of the Defense Logistics 

Agency (DLA) to submit a report to the congressional defense committees not later than 90 days after the enactment of this Act that 

describes the business practice for acquiring spare parts, the database utilized by DLA to track inventory processed within DLA, the 

system used by DLA to account for interdepartmental purchase requests, the efforts made by DLA to maximize savings across the 

Department of Defense, and any better business practices adopted 

in fiscal years 2015 and 2016. 

DEFENSE LOGISTICS AGENCY

While the Committee supports the Federal Prison Industry (FPI) 

mission to reduce crime by preparing inmates for successful reentry 

into society through job training, the Committee remains concerned 

that the Defense Logistic Agency’s reliance on FPI is at the expense of the private sector, particularly small and disadvantaged 

businesses. The Committee notes that the FPI organizing statute 

requires it be operated so that it reduces to a minimum competition 

with private industry or free labor. The Committee expects that the 

Department will refrain from any changes that would enable furVerDate Sep 11 2014 11:13 Jul 14, 2017 Jkt 025997 PO 00000 Frm 00098 Fmt 6601 Sfmt 6602 E:\HR\OC\HR219.XXX HR219
89 

ther intrusion by FPI into contracts that have been set aside for 

competition among small businesses. 

DEFENSE POW/MIA ACCOUNTING AGENCY

The Committee supports the additional funding requested in the 

fiscal year 2018 budget for the Defense POW/MIA Accounting 

Agency (DPAA), which provides families with the fullest possible 

accounting for missing persons from past conflicts. For more than 

two decades, the Department of Defense has conducted joint field 

activities with the governments of Vietnam, Laos, and Cambodia to 

recover the remains of more than 1,000 missing Americans, yet 

today more than 1,600 Americans still remain unaccounted for 

from the Vietnam War. Therefore, in light of the fragility and ongoing degradation of many of these sites, the Committee encourages 

the Director of the DPAA to fully resource its field teams in these 

countries and to continue to investigate crash and burial sites, 

interview locals, and obtain access to historical wartime records 

and archives that provide information relevant to the fates of missing Americans. The Director of DPAA is directed to submit a report 

not later than 60 days after the enactment of this Act delineating 

how resources provided will be applied to this effort. 

MEALS READY-TO-EAT WAR RESERVE

The Committee recommendation fully supports the fiscal year 

2018 request for the Defense Logistics Agency to maintain 

2,500,000 cases of meals ready-to-eat and reaffirms support for the 

War Reserve stock objective of 5,000,000 cases. 

YOUTH SERVING ORGANIZATIONS

The Committee recognizes the sacrifices made by 

servicemembers and their families and supports the many organizations around the world that provide assistance to them. These organizations provide comfort, hope, and healing to affected military 

families. The Committee encourages the Secretary of Defense to 

consider programs that support attendance at camps, or camp-like 

settings, of children of military families to include camps for children, who have experienced the death of a family member or other 

loved one or who have a family member living with a substance 

abuse disorder or post-traumatic stress disorder.

REPROGRAMMING GUIDANCE FOR ACQUISITION ACCOUNTS

The Committee directs the Secretary of Defense to continue to 

follow the reprogramming guidance as specified in the report accompanying the House version of the Department of Defense Appropriations bill for Fiscal Year 2008 (House Report 110–279). Specifically, the dollar threshold for reprogramming funds shall remain 

at $20,000,000 for procurement and $10,000,000 for research, development, test and evaluation. 

Also, the Committee directs the Under Secretary of Defense 

(Comptroller) to continue to provide the congressional defense committees quarterly, spreadsheet-based DD Form 1416 reports for 

Service and defense-wide accounts in titles III and IV of this Act. 

Reports for titles III and IV shall comply with the guidance specified in the explanatory statement accompanying the Department of 

Defense Appropriations Act, 2006. The Department shall continue 

to follow the limitation that prior approval reprogrammings are set 

at either the specified dollar threshold or 20 percent of the procurement or research, development, test and evaluation line, whichever 

is less. These thresholds are cumulative from the Base for Reprogramming value as modified by any adjustments. Therefore, if 

the combined value of transfers into or out of a procurement (P– 

1) or research, development, test and evaluation (R–1) line exceeds 

the identified threshold, the Secretary of Defense must submit a 

prior approval reprogramming to the congressional defense committees. In addition, guidelines on the application of prior approval reprogramming procedures for congressional special interest items 

are established elsewhere in this report. 

FUNDING INCREASES

The funding increases outlined in these tables shall be provided 

only for the specific purposes indicated in the tables. 

PROCUREMENT SPECIAL INTEREST ITEMS

Items for which additional funds have been provided as shown in 

the project level tables or in paragraphs using the phrase ‘‘only for’’ 

or ‘‘only to’’ in this report are congressional special interest items 

for the purpose of the Base for Reprogramming (DD Form 1414). 

Each of these items must be carried on the DD Form 1414 at the 

stated amount as specifically addressed in the Committee report. 

These items remain special interest items whether or not they are 

repeated in a subsequent conference report. 

JOINT STRIKE FIGHTER ECONOMIC ORDER QUANTITY PROCUREMENT

The Committee recommendation includes $660,989,000, the same 

as the budget request, for the procurement of economic order quantities of material and equipment that have completed formal hardware qualification testing in order to support the procurement of 

F–35 aircraft at reduced cost in fiscal years 2019 and 2020. 

CYBER DEFENSE PROCUREMENT

The Committee is aware that current information technology procurement policies may result in unnecessary costs and delays in 

the Services’ ability to modernize the cyberspace enterprise and 

114 

protect infrastructure from cyber attacks. The Committee supports 

efforts to ensure that cyber personnel are adequately trained and 

that lessons learned from federal agencies and the private sector 

are leveraged to optimize the Department of Defense’s cybersecurity defense posture. The Committee encourages the Secretary of 

Defense, in conjunction with the Service Secretaries, to keep the 

congressional defense committees informed of efforts to modernize 

information technology procurement, deployment, sustainment, and 

training of cyber procurement personnel. 

SUPPORT FOR INDUSTRIAL BASE DIVERSITY

The Committee supports competition and a strong industrial 

base for the procurement of defense end items to reduce reliance 

on sole-source acquisitions. The Committee encourages the Secretary of Defense to promote the maintenance of a diverse and robust industrial base of suppliers for significant procurement items, 

within current law and available levels of funding.

LAND MOBILE RADIO NETWORK IN EUROPE

The Committee commends Army efforts to move forward on modernizing its land mobile radio network in Europe. Moving to a joint 

United States Air Forces in Europe—United States Army Europe 

land mobile radio system supports broader joint information environment goals and will potentially generate cost savings. However, 

the Committee remains concerned about ongoing land mobile radio 

shortfalls on numerous United States Army Europe installations, 

which may compromise the ability to provide effective force protection in the event of a terrorist attack. The Committee urges the 

Secretary of the Army to prioritize funding for continued land mobile radio upgrades across all United States Army Europe installations in fiscal year 2018. 

SOLDIER BORNE SENSOR

The Committee supports the establishment of a soldier borne 

sensor program to develop a squad-level situational awareness tool 

that provides near real-time, high-fidelity video feeds. This capability may reduce warfighter exposure to threats while enhancing 

squad maneuvers. The Committee is concerned that the Army’s 

proposed single year acquisition strategy for the soldier borne sensor will result in higher unit costs. The Committee directs the Secretary of the Army to provide a report to the House Appropriations 

Committee not later than August 15, 2017 on the acquisition approach the Army is pursuing and the rationale for the option selected.

NAVY RESERVE COMBAT AIRCRAFT

The Committee remains concerned that the aging aircraft of the 

Navy Reserve Combat air fleet will further hamper the mission of 

these vital tactical aviation squadrons. The Navy Reserve squadrons provide critical adversary support and strike fighter weapons 

training to active duty forces and must maintain a high mobilization readiness level for immediate deployment in the event of war 

or national emergency. Recapitalizing the two Reserve F/A–18+ 

squadrons with newer platforms would ensure that the Navy maintains dedicated advanced adversary squadrons. The Committee encourages the Secretary of the Navy, in coordination with the Chief 

of the Navy Reserve, to maintain the Navy Reserve Combat air 

fleet and not to divest the two Reserve squadrons. 

V–22 OSPREY MULTIYEAR PROCUREMENT

The Committee recommendation includes $1,191,496,000 for the 

procurement of 12 V–22 aircraft, an increase of six aircraft above 

the budget request. However, the Committee is dismayed at the 

late, inaccurate submission of required budget justification materials for the request of multiyear procurement contracts for the Department of the Navy. As such, the Committee recommendation includes a legislative provision allowing the Secretary of the Navy to 

enter into a multiyear procurement contract for the remaining aircraft of the program of record, subject to section 2306b of title 10, 

United States Code, which limits the time period of a multiyear 

procurement contract to no more than five years. The Committee 

encourages the Secretary of the Navy to review the V–22 program 

profile with the goal to generate significant cost savings by entering into a five year multiyear procurement with a more stable acquisition profile. 

MH–60R AIRCRAFT

The Committee recognizes that the Navy’s recent Force Structure 

Assessment recommended increasing the size of the surface fleet to 

355 ships. The Committee is also aware that the Navy is performing a Force Structure Assessment for the helicopter fleet to determine how best to potentially meet an increase in aviation requirements associated with an increased fleet size. The Committee 

recognizes that the current fleet of MH–60 helicopters are beginning to run out of service life and will have to undergo a service 

life extension program in the next few years. Additionally, the final 

aircraft of the MH–60R program of record are being delivered in 

fiscal year 2018. The Committee is concerned by the potential increased requirement for additional helicopters in the future years 

defense program and the sustainability of the helicopter industrial 

base. As such, the Committee directs the Secretary of the Navy to 

submit the Force Structure Assessment for the helicopter fleet to 

the congressional defense committees not later than 90 days after 

the enactment of this Act.

VIRGINIA CLASS SUBMARINE ADVANCE PROCUREMENT

The Committee remains supportive of the procurement of two 

Virginia class submarines each fiscal year and fully funds the 

budget request for the program in fiscal year 2018. However, the 

Committee notes that the budget request for advance procurement 

funding for the Virginia class submarine program continues to 

grow each fiscal year, while the budget justification materials provide very few corresponding details. The Committee directs the 

Secretary of the Navy to provide a report to the congressional defense committees not later than 30 days after the enactment of this 

Act that details the items being procured with advance procurement funding for the Virginia class submarine program. The report 

shall include the items being procured, the cost of each item, and 

the lead time associated with each item. Furthermore, the Committee directs the Secretary of the Navy to provide this level of detail with the submission of the fiscal year 2019 and subsequent 

budget requests. 

ICEBREAKERS

The Committee remains concerned with the increasing Russian 

military expansion in the Arctic region. As Russia continues to reopen Cold War era bases and conduct military exercises in the region, the Committee urges the Secretary of Defense to make countering Russian aggression in the Arctic a priority. The Committee 

encourages the Secretary of Defense to work with the Secretary of 

Homeland Security on a strategy for the future procurement of icebreakers, which are essential to the maritime security interests of 

the United States and allies in the region. 

DDG–51 DESTROYER

The Committee understands that the two DDG–51 destroyers included in the recommendation for fiscal year 2018 are of the Flight 

III configuration. However, the Committee reiterates the position, 

as stated previously in the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2017, 

that the Secretary of the Navy should award and complete the additional DDG–51 ship that was fully funded by Congress in fiscal 

years 2016 and 2017, as an additional DDG–51 Flight IIA ship and 

that this should be awarded expeditiously.

A–10 WING REPLACEMENT

The Committee recommends $103,000,000 above the budget request to restart the A–10 wing replacement program, which was included on the Air Force unfunded priorities list. The Committee 

notes that the included funds are expected to yield three production 

wing sets. Since 110 A–10 aircraft require new or overhauled wings 

and the estimated cost of the program could be as high as 

$10,000,000 per wing set, completing A–10 wing replacements represents a significant investment over multiple fiscal years. The 

Committee expects the Secretary of the Air Force to follow through 

on the inclusion of A–10 wing replacements in the Air Force unfunded priorities list by programming the necessary resources to 

continue the program in future budget requests beginning with fiscal year 2019. 

F–15 INFRARED SEARCH AND TRACK

The Committee directs that no funds provided for the procurement of F–15 infrared search and track pods may be obligated until 

15 days after the Secretary of the Air Force submits to the congressional defense committees a report certifying that the pods to be 

procured will meet or exceed all threshold parameters identified in 

the report submitted pursuant to Section 219 of the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2016. This report may be 

submitted in classified form. 

F–15C AND AIR FORCE FIGHTER MIX

The Committee is concerned by indications from the Air Force 

that it may seek to divest the F–15C fleet before an advanced air 

superiority capability is fielded. The Committee is further concerned by the removal of funds for F–15C Eagle Passive/Active 

Warning and Survivability System and wing service life extension 

from the future years defense plan. The Committee understands 

that the Air Force is currently studying the future optimal mix of 

fourth and fifth generation fighter aircraft and that the Department of Defense is engaged in forming a new National Defense 

Strategy, both of which should inform Air Force proposals for the 

F–15C fleet. The Committee notes that in recent years the Air 

Force has proposed, with little success, to trade away current tactical air capacity to create budgetary headroom for other priorities. 

The Committee directs the Secretary of the Air Force to keep the 

Committee fully informed of all Air Force studies regarding the F– 

15C fleet (including modification programs) and the composition of 

the fighter aircraft force, and will carefully review any future proposals regarding the F–15C fleet to ensure that all mission areas 

can be suitably met. 

SPECIAL AIRLIFT MISSION

The Committee is aware that the Air Force has established a 

threshold requirement of 18 C–37/C–20 class aircraft to perform 

the Special Airlift Mission, which currently has a capability shortfall due to the divestment of five C–20 aircraft. The Air Force has 

examined possible courses of action, determined that the preferred 

solution is to procure three additional C–37B aircraft to achieve the 

189 

threshold fleet size, and included these aircraft on the unfunded 

priorities list. The Committee directs the Secretary of the Air Force 

to submit a report on the rationale for the preferred alternative, 

the mission area impact of the current shortfall, a notional procurement plan for achieving the objective fleet size of 22 aircraft, and 

an estimate of the lifecycle cost impact of the preferred course of 

action to the congressional defense committees not later than 60 

days after the enactment of this Act.

GLOBAL POSITIONING SYSTEM III

The Committee believes that after a challenging start to the 

Global Positioning System III (GPS) program, the least technologically risky and most cost effective approach to procuring space 

vehicles 11 and beyond is to continue block buys within the program of record. The Committee understands the Air Force continues to research the efficacy of recompeting the existing contract. 

The Committee directs the Secretary of the Air Force to conduct a 

review that considers solutions that minimize technical and schedule risk as well as maximize reutilization of existing technology 

and infrastructure investments and to provide a report on the results of the review to the congressional defense committees not 

later than February 1, 2018. The Committee also expects the Secretary of the Air Force to request procurement funds in fiscal year 

2019 for the acquisition of space vehicles 11 and 12. 

SPACE-BASED INFRARED SYSTEM

The Committee is pleased that the Evolved Space-Based Infrared 

System (SBIRS) program will initially focus on Future Operationally Resilient Ground Evolution and Enterprise Ground Services to 

support the space warfighting construct. The Committee encourages the Secretary of the Air Force to consider focusing resources 

on the ground segment before building the space segment. 

The Committee is concerned that the request for advance procurement of functional equivalent space vehicles to the SBIRS program of record is not directed by a clearly defined strategy. For example, the SBIRS analysis of alternatives remains incomplete, the 

wide field of view sensor has no clear transition path into a program of record, and the Committee is unaware of any sustained effort to integrate overhead persistent infrared requirements and capabilities across the Department of Defense and Intelligence Community. Therefore, the Committee does not provide advance procurement for functional equivalent SBIRS space vehicles.

SECURE SUPPLY CHAIN FOR BERYLLIUM

The Committee believes that the commercial market to supply 

adequate amounts of beryllium for national security needs must remain stable. The market for beryllium is driven primarily by defense and national security needs. As a result, the government has 

conducted multiple interventions into the beryllium market to ensure that the United States has a secure domestic supply of the 

material to ensure that no national security requirement goes 

unmet. These interventions have provided security of supply and 

stabilized the price for beryllium. The Committee encourages the 

Secretary of Defense to continue investing in the beryllium industrial supply base.

PROCUREMENT, NATIONAL DEFENSE RESTORATION FUND 

The Committee recommends $12,622,931,000 for the Procurement, National Defense Restoration Fund, in order to replace and 

modernize the equipment of the military Services and defense 

agencies. The Committee directs that the funding be used to meet 

the requirements necessary to implement the 2018 National Defense Strategy. The Secretary of Defense is directed to submit to 

the congressional defense committees a proposed allocation plan, 

including a detailed budget justification for the use of such funds 

and a description of how such investments are necessary to implement the strategy, not fewer than 30 days prior to making transfers from the fund. Transfers from the fund are subject to prior approval from the congressional defense committees.

REPROGRAMMING GUIDANCE FOR ACQUISITION ACCOUNTS

The Committee directs the Secretary of Defense to continue to 

follow the reprogramming guidance as specified in the report accompanying the House version of the Department of Defense Appropriations bill for Fiscal Year 2008 (House Report 110–279). Specifically, the dollar threshold for reprogramming funds will remain 

at $20,000,000 for procurement and $10,000,000 for research, development, test and evaluation. 

Also, the Committee directs the Under Secretary of Defense 

(Comptroller) to continue to provide the congressional defense committees quarterly, spreadsheet-based DD Form 1416 reports for 

Service and defense-wide accounts in titles III and IV of this Act. 

Reports for titles III and IV shall comply with the guidance specified in the explanatory statement accompanying the Department of 

Defense Appropriations Act, 2006. The Department shall continue 

to follow the limitation that prior approval reprogrammings are set 

at either the specified dollar threshold or 20 percent of the procurement or research, development, test and evaluation line, whichever 

is less. These thresholds are cumulative from the Base for Reprogramming value as modified by any adjustments. Therefore, if 

the combined value of transfers into or out of a procurement (P– 

1) or research, development, test and evaluation (R–1) line exceeds 

the identified threshold, the Secretary of Defense must submit a 

prior approval reprogramming to the congressional defense committees. In addition, guidelines on the application of prior approval reprogramming procedures for congressional special interest items 

are established elsewhere in this report. 

FUNDING INCREASES

The Committee directs that the funding increases outlined in 

these tables shall be provided only for the specific purposes indicated in the tables. 

RESEARCH, DEVELOPMENT, TEST AND EVALUATION SPECIAL INTEREST

ITEMS

Items for which additional funds have been provided as shown in 

the project level tables or in paragraphs using the phrase ‘‘only for’’ 

or ‘‘only to’’ in this report are congressional special interest items 

for the purpose of the Base for Reprogramming (DD Form 1414). 

Each of these items must be carried on the DD Form 1414 at the 

stated amount specifically addressed in the Committee report. 

These items remain special interest items whether or not they are 

repeated in a subsequent conference report. 

LIGHTWEIGHT, LONG-DWELL UNMANNED AERIAL SYSTEMS

The Committee understands that there are currently no options 

available for lightweight, long-dwell unmanned aerial systems 

(UAS) and believes that this capability may provide the warfighter 

with a tactical advantage in certain circumstances and theaters. 

The Committee directs the Secretary of Defense, in coordination 

with the Director of the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency, to provide a report to the congressional defense committees not 

later than 90 days after the enactment of this Act, on any efforts 

212 

to address small, lightweight, long-dwell UAS technologies and 

Service-specific requirements. This report may be submitted with a 

classified annex if necessary. 

COST OF NUCLEAR MODERNIZATION

In the House-passed version of the Department of Defense Appropriations Act, 2017 (House Report 114–577), the Committee directed the Secretary of Defense to submit a report to the congressional defense committees detailing the estimated lifecycle costs associated with the Department’s plan for replacing and sustaining 

all legs of the nuclear triad, including the ground based strategic 

deterrent, the B–21 bomber, the long range standoff weapon, the 

Ohio replacement program, associated warheads, and supporting 

infrastructure. The Committee directs the Secretary of Defense to 

submit a follow-on report not later than 180 days after the enactment of this Act detailing the updated lifecycle costs for the same 

programs indicated above and providing an explanation for any 

changes relative to the initial report. This report may be submitted 

with a classified annex if necessary. 

FEDERALLY FUNDED RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT CENTERS

The Committee recognizes that the staff years of technical effort 

(STE) limitation on Federally Funded Research and Development 

Centers (FFRDCs) has limited the effort of study for many programs including strategic nuclear modernization programs. In an 

effort to alleviate these limitations, the Committee recommendation 

increases the fiscal year 2018 limit by 250 STEs, divided proportionately between Studies and Analysis FFRDCs and Systems Engineering and Integration and Laboratories FFRDCs, and provides 

the necessary funding to support this increase. 

ADVANCED LIGHTWEIGHT POLYMER CASED SMALL ARMS AMMUNITIONS

The Committee is encouraged by the Navy’s progress on design, 

development, and testing of advanced lightweight small arms ammunitions and encourages the Secretary of the Navy to continue 

exploring and refining the use of advanced lightweight polymer 

cased ammunitions to reduce the weight burden, improve mobility, 

and enhance the survivability of the warfighter.

ARMY LETHALITY IMPROVEMENTS

The Committee commends the Army’s continued attention to and 

action on the findings of the Army lethality report that was required by the Department of Defense of Appropriations Act, 2015. 

As a result, the Army has provided resources for select mitigation 

activities that can be achieved in the near term. The Committee 

encourages the Secretary of the Army to continue the establishment and advancement of an armament systems integration capability through existing capacity and mechanisms to advance and coordinate armament systems development and effectiveness. 

MULTI-ROLE ARMAMENT SYSTEMS

The Committee is concerned that the Army may be out-ranged 

by some adversaries. The Army has incrementally modified its 

combat vehicles over the years but has not fully addressed the 

emerging gaps in lethality. The Committee believes that the Army 

must have the best equipment available that offers lethality overmatch. The Committee encourages the Secretary of the Army to develop multi-role armament systems that are platform-agnostic and 

offer multi-munition capability to defeat multiple target sets. 

MULTI-ROLE MUNITION TECHNOLOGIES

The Committee encourages the Secretary of the Army to pursue 

scalable, multi-functional, multi-role munitions that can engage a 

broad spectrum of targets. This will require advances in enabling 

technologies, such as fuzes, safe-and-arm devices, and highly directional explosives to support enhanced lethality effects that minimize threat to friendly forces and structures. This increase in capability and efficiency of deployed units could also lighten the load 

and reduce the logistics burden on tactical forces. 

PEER-REVIEWED NEUROFIBROMATOSIS RESEARCH PROGRAM

Malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumors occur in roughly ten 

percent of neurofibromatosis patients. Even with proper treatment, 

recurrence rates are high and survival rates are low. The peer-reviewed neurofibromatosis research program has invested in important initiatives that have led to promising returns. The Committee 

supports continued research into the diagnosis and treatment of 

neurofibromatosis and peripheral nerve sheath tumors to enhance 

the quality of life of servicemembers, their families, and all those 

affected by the disease. 

NEXT GENERATION MUNITION TECHNOLOGIES

The Committee is concerned that some adversaries have the capability to counter the Army’s rocket, artillery, and mortar systems 

which will limit the Army’s ability to effectively engage targets. 

The Committee recognizes that the development of counter-measure hardened munitions with low observability and non-predictable 

maneuver will allow friendly forces to maintain overmatch in indirect fires capabilities. Swarming technologies that enable individual munitions to identify targets, determine the best method of 

attack, and eventually coordinate among multiple munitions will 

increase the probability of successful engagement in highly conVerDate Sep 11 2014 11:13 Jul 14, 2017 Jkt 025997 PO 00000 Frm 00234 Fmt 6601 Sfmt 6602 E:\HR\OC\HR219.XXX HR219
225 

tested operational environments. The Committee encourages the 

Secretary of the Army to conduct research in this area. 

NET ZERO

The Committee encourages the Secretary of the Army to continue 

the development of a prototype and pilot scale testing of net zero 

technology for the potential transition to the industrial base. 

TECHNOLOGY ADVANCEMENT AND RETENTION CENTER

The Committee recognizes the Army’s progress in modeling, simulating, and manufacturing cellulose-based products for ammunition. These capabilities and materials offer enhancements in performance, cost reduction, and process improvement and control. 

The Committee encourages the Secretary of the Army to consider 

establishing an enduring capability for research, development, 

modeling, and simulation that supports continued improvement in 

ammunition manufacturing. The Committee also encourages the 

Secretary of the Army to consider planning and equipping for larger scale manufacturing of cellulose-based materials in order to protect this industrial base capability. 

ADVANCED DEVELOPMENT OF ASSET PROTECTION TECHNOLOGIES

The Committee recognizes the Army’s advancement in developing 

successful technologies such as thermal indicating paints, active 

sensor systems, novel power solutions, printed and embedded sensors for aviation structures, flexible electronics, and other technologies that support the warfighter. The Committee encourages 

the Secretary of the Army to develop, demonstrate, manufacture, 

and deploy advanced multi-functional materials and technologies 

that can be combined for customizable asset protection systems and 

increased weapon system capabilities. 

ADVANCED LIGHTWEIGHT TRANSPARENT ARMORS WITH MULTIFUNCTIONAL CAPABILITY

The Committee notes that the Army continues to design and test 

advanced lightweight transparent armors with multi-functional capabilities that have the potential to protect the warfighter from 

current and future threats. The Committee encourages the Secretary of the Army to continue the development of novel, high-performance lightweight transparent armor technology with multifunctional capability that can successfully protect warfighters. 

DOMESTIC SUPPLY OF HIGH PERFORMANCE MATERIAL FOR SOLDIER

PROTECTION

The Committee recognizes the national security need to provide 

soldiers with advanced lightweight transparent armor made of laminated films to improve face and eye protection. The Committee encourages the Secretary of the Army to ensure that a secure, domestic source of high performance, strong, transparent polymer films 

exists for the production of a new generation of lightweight transparent armor that provides superior ballistic protection, optical 

properties, and operational capabilities. 

226 

IMPROVED TURBINE ENGINE PROGRAM

The Committee commends the Army for advancing the research 

of the Improved Turbine Engine Program and for exploring ways 

to accelerate the development and fielding of this program. The Improved Turbine Engine Program is intended to develop a more fuel 

efficient and powerful engine for the current UH–60 Black Hawk 

and AH–64 Apache helicopter fleets. This new engine will increase 

operational capabilities in high and hot environments, increase 

range, and improve fuel efficiency while reducing the Army’s 

logistical footprint, and operational and support costs. Given the 

positive progress of this program, the Committee recommends fully 

funding the Improved Turbine Engine Program in fiscal year 2018 

and encourages the Secretary of the Army to ensure that the program is robustly funded in future years budget submissions. 

PRECISION GUN LAUNCHED PROJECTILES

The Committee is aware of the Army’s effort to develop enhanced 

lethality and accuracy for dismounted soldiers. The Committee believes that emerging manufacturing technologies play a critical role 

in these efforts by enabling rapid flexible munitions production and 

cost savings for advanced projectile systems. The Committee encourages the Secretary of the Army to continue development of extended range hybrid and affordable precision gun launched projectiles. 

ARMY RESEARCH LABORATORY OPEN CAMPUS INITIATIVE

The Committee supports the Army Research Laboratory’s (ARL) 

Open Campus Initiative which was created in 2014 to increase collaboration with universities and other external research stakeholders. Since that time, ARL Open Campus has established a 

presence in geographic regions across the United States. Known as 

ARL extended campuses, Army researchers are able to easily collaborate with and leverage scientific assets outside of ARL’s headquarters. The Committee encourages the Director of the Army Research Lab to create additional opportunities for the United States 

academic research and development community to contribute to 

Department of Defense science and technology efforts. The Committee recommendation includes $4,000,000 to support the hiring of 

university faculty under joint appointments with the laboratory at 

ARL extended campuses across the country to increase access to infrastructure, research staff, equipment, concepts, and results. 

ARMY SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY REINVENTION LABORATORIES

The Committee notes the work being conducted at Army Science 

and Technology Reinvention Laboratories around the country but 

remains concerned about the current state of research facilities, office space, and other infrastructure at some premier Army laboratories. Modern buildings, equipment, and other resources are vital 

to ensuring that the Army stays at the cutting edge of technology 

and continues to recruit and retain the most talented scientific personnel. The Committee encourages the Secretary of the Army to 

prioritize recapitalizing, refurbishing, and modernizing facilities at 

Army research laboratories. 

227 

BURN PATIENT TRANSFER SYSTEM

The Committee supports the development of strategies and technologies to improve the efficiency of burn patient care in military 

treatment facilities. The Committee recognizes that, in the event of 

a mass casualty event, military treatment facilities throughout the 

nation would experience a significant increase in burn patient volume. Due to the highly specialized nature of burn care, the limited 

number of dedicated burn beds, and the fact that many military 

bases are located near civilian trauma/burn centers, the ability to 

maximize efficiency and effectiveness of care would be critical to 

the management of an overwhelming surge in burn patient volume 

and intensity. The Committee encourages the Secretary of the 

Army to research the development of a burn patient transfer system, including any required hardware and software, that would 

provide a platform for reporting immediate and surge bed availability, and would electronically match patient acuity with open 

beds at other military and civilian burn centers. 

NEXT GENERATION SIGNATURE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM

The Committee is encouraged by Army efforts to accelerate research and development of its next generation signature management system. This improved camouflage system provides an important defensive capability against current and emerging threats, 

particularly for warfighters in Europe and the Middle East. The 

Committee encourages the Secretary of the Army to complete research and development of the camouflage system and accelerate 

low-rate initial production of the system during fiscal year 2018. 

Additionally, the Committee is aware of emerging operational 

needs for mobile camouflage systems and encourages the Secretary 

of the Army to accelerate and further fund research, development, 

and procurement efforts for these systems. 

COMMON FIRE CONTROL SYSTEM

The Army maintains many combat vehicles, towed howitzers, 

and dismounted weapon systems, all of which have their own 

unique fire control systems that are costly to maintain and upgrade. A common fire control system would allow the Army to reduce the number of unique systems that require support, which 

would potentially generate development and maintenance cost savings. The Committee encourages the Secretary of the Army to develop a common fire control system that can operate across a variety of different platforms and armament systems. 

LETHALITY OVERMATCH

The Committee acknowledges that many potential adversaries 

have established anti-access and area denial measures. To facilitate access to contested areas, the Committee encourages the Secretary of the Army to focus on developing capabilities that can be 

airdropped into contested areas, operated in GPS-denied environments, and that can survive an initial fight until heavier reinforcements become available. The Committee encourages the Secretary 

of the Army to consider the development of lighter platforms that 

have the lethality of the Abrams tank but can be airdropped, as 

228 

well as armed robotic platforms that are deployable with manned 

platforms. 

ENHANCED PROPULSION FOR GUN LAUNCHED MUNITIONS

The Committee notes the potential value of developing exterior 

propulsion capabilities and technologies that can be integrated into 

conventional munitions for extended range and enhanced maneuverability. The Committee encourages the Secretary of the Army to 

consider how a propulsion effort could advance state-of-the-art capabilities in energetic formulation, processing, and fabrication of 

novel propulsion technologies. 

ADVANCED ENERGETICS

The Committee encourages the Secretary of the Army to demonstrate, through the application of novel manufacturing pilot processes, next generation insensitive energetic materials that enable 

increased gun-launched munition performance to achieve longer 

ranges and increased terminal effects against a spectrum of 

threats. 

ENHANCED NON-DESTRUCTIVE TESTING CAPACITY

The Committee is aware that the Army’s Engineer Research and 

Development Center (ERDC) plays a leading role in researching 

survivability and protective structures for the warfighter. The Committee recognizes that the ERDC often partners with university research centers which offer enhanced capacity for non-destructive 

testing and corrosion resistance for protective structures research. 

The Committee encourages the Secretary of the Army to continue 

its partnership between the ERDC and university researchers who 

may help accelerate this vital research. 

HUMAN SIMULATION RESEARCH

The Committee recognizes that a foundational research effort 

that couples applied research in human simulation with physicsbased survivability analysis models could lead to substantial insight that enhance warfighter mobility, survivability, welfare, and 

training. The Committee encourages the Secretary of the Army to 

support research and integration of physics-based human simulation with existing government models of survivability, lethality, 

and human performance analysis to create a holistic model. 

JOINT MULTI-ROLE PROGRAM

The Committee acknowledges that the development of a helicopter emergency oil system under the Joint Multi-Role program 

may increase the combat survivability of the platforms under development. Such a system could potentially slow the engine oil drainout from sixty seconds to six minutes, providing additional flight 

time and offering the pilot and passengers the necessary time to 

carry out evasive landing maneuvers to safely land the rotary wing 

aircraft. The Committee encourages the Secretary of the Army to 

consider investing in the further development of this technology.

SURFACE SHIP TORPEDO DEFENSE

The Committee recognizes that there is an urgent operational 

need for a robust Surface Ship Torpedo Defense system to address 

a range of torpedo threats facing the Navy’s high value units and 

surface fleet. The Navy has invested significant funding over the 

last several years on the development and deployment of a towed 

array sensor system with both active and passive sonar processing 

designed to counter increased torpedo threats. The Committee 

notes, however, that the fiscal year 2018 budget request for Surface 

Ship Torpedo Defense does not fully fund the five systems currently fielded. Therefore, the Committee recommends an increase 

of $10,000,000 to specifically support existing Surface Ship Torpedo 

Defense systems already deployed within the Navy. Additionally, 

the Committee directs the Secretary of the Navy to provide a detailed investment strategy for maintaining a robust Surface Ship 

Torpedo Defense system to the congressional defense committees 

not later than 90 days after the enactment of this Act. 

SILICON CARBIDE POWER ELECTRONICS

The Committee supports the Navy’s investment to develop advanced power and energy technology to meet requirements for 

higher electric power loads through efficient means. The use of silicon carbide power modules may be able to reduce the size and 

weight of power conversion modules and other electronic systems 

necessary for advanced sensors and weapon systems. The Committee encourages the Secretary of the Navy to continue to invest 

in advanced power and energy technology and to accelerate the 

qualification of silicon carbide power modules to be used on highpower, mission critical Navy platforms. 

AUTONOMOUS SURVEY SHIP

The Committee is concerned that the Navy Oceanographic Office 

is not taking advantage of autonomous vessel technologies to facilitate its charting and mapping responsibilities. The employment of 

an autonomous survey ship by the Navy Oceanographic Office 

could result in savings in both procurement and personnel costs 

while increasing the rate at which uncharted portions of the ocean 

floor become accurately mapped. The Committee directs the Secretary of the Navy to analyze how commercial autonomous survey 

vessel technology can be capitalized upon for the mission of the 

Navy Oceanographic Office and to submit a report to the congressional defense committees not later than 90 days after the enactment of this Act on the potential benefits commercial autonomous 

survey vessel technology could provide and the associated cost for 

the procurement of a commercial autonomous survey ship. 

ADVANCED COMBAT SYSTEMS TECHNOLOGY

The Committee recognizes the Navy’s desire to develop and field 

technology solutions in a more expedited method than through the 

traditional acquisition process. However, the Committee is concerned that recommending a large amount of funding for this effort 

with no corresponding details or justification would limit congressional oversight. Therefore, the Committee recommends a total of 

246 

$20,000,000 to be split equally between the Rapid Prototype Development project and the Unmanned Rapid Prototype Development 

project. This funding level is a tenfold increase over the fiscal year 

2017 enacted level. Further, the Committee directs the Secretary 

of the Navy to provide written notification to the House and Senate 

Appropriations Committees on how the funding will be obligated 

not fewer than 15 days prior to obligation. 

ENERGY STORAGE RESEARCH

The Committee supports continued research in power generation 

and energy storage and notes that the development and deployment of lithium ion batteries are critical to current and future missions. However, the Committee understands that safety concerns 

have often hindered the operational use of lithium ion batteries. 

The Committee believes that the development and qualification of 

materials technologies, such as non-flammable electrolytes, aimed 

at improving lithium ion battery safety and performance should be 

a research priority. 

COASTAL ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH

The Committee understands the importance of the littoral region 

to Navy operations worldwide. The Committee believes that additional research of the magnetic, electric, and acoustic ambient 

fields in the coastal ocean regions and the development of predictive techniques to distinguish ships and submarines from naturally occurring background features would be beneficial for littoral 

operations. The Committee encourages the Secretary of the Navy 

to conduct additional research in this critical area. 

EXPANDED HYPOXIA RESEARCH

The Committee is concerned about recent incidents aboard multiple aircraft platforms in which pilots reported symptoms of hypoxia, or oxygen deprivation. Despite ongoing efforts to address the 

problem, reported cases of hypoxia among military pilots are on the 

rise. The Committee encourages the Secretary of the Navy to continue to research hypoxia to meet pilot mission needs and to ensure 

the safety of servicemembers.

PRESIDENTIAL AIRCRAFT REPLACEMENT

The Committee directs the Secretary of the Air Force to continue 

to make available to the congressional defense committees a quarterly brief on the Presidential Aircraft Replacement program. 

JOINT SURVEILLANCE TARGET ATTACK RADAR SYSTEM

The Committee recommendation fully funds the budget request 

of $417,021,000 for the Joint Surveillance Target Attack Radar 

System (JSTARS) recapitalization program. In order to ensure that 

the Air Force remains on schedule to contract for development of 

the new JSTARS platform in fiscal year 2018, the recommendation 

includes a legislative provision that prohibits the use of funds to 

continue pre-milestone B activities beyond March 31, 2018, except 

for source selection and other activities necessary to enter the engineering and manufacturing development phase. 

The Committee expects that the Air Force will not take steps to 

prematurely retire existing mission capable E–8 JSTARS aircraft 

prior to the current estimated initial operational capability (not 

later than fiscal year 2024) for the new JSTARS platform. The Air 

Force has indicated that no determination has yet been made regarding the phase-out of the E–8 fleet. The Committee recognizes 

that the retirement of E–8 aircraft is partially dependent on the 

progress of the recapitalization program, but is concerned that the 

Air Force has not programmed funds to modify the E–8 fleet in 

order to meet air traffic control mandates and has been unable to 

provide an estimate for such modifications. Therefore, the Committee directs the Secretary of the Air Force to submit a report to 

the congressional defense committees on the estimated cost and 

schedule for integrating, procuring, and installing necessary avionics upgrades for the E–8 fleet in order to meet air traffic control 

mandates. The report shall be submitted not later than January 

31, 2018. 

ANTENNA RESEARCH

The Committee is aware that the Air Force has funded research 

in deployable and reconfigurable multifunctional antennas. The 

Committee encourages the Director of the Air Force Office of Scientific Research to partner with academic institutions capable of 

advancing technologies with a potentially transformational impact 

on important applications for military use, such as expandable antennas for satellite communications and collapsible antennas that 

can benefit ground personnel by reducing the weight and footprint 

of antennas. 

MATERIALS FOR EXTREME ENVIRONMENTS

The Committee is aware that the Air Force is conducting research into the development of complex materials and structures 

for use on weapon systems operating in extreme environments. The 

Committee encourages the Secretary of the Air Force to expand 

such research to two-dimensional materials beyond graphene, including oxide materials that are suitable for operationally relevant 

extreme environments. 

259 

AIRCRAFT LIGHT WEIGHTING EFFORTS

The Committee is aware that the Air Force is conducting research into a family of affordable lightweight materials, including 

metals, polymers, ceramics, metallic and nonmetallic composites, 

and hybrid materials to provide new and upgraded capabilities for 

aircraft, missile, and propulsion systems to meet future system 

weight requirements. The Committee supports this research and 

encourages the Secretary of the Air Force to extend these research 

efforts to composite materials that can be used for brake housing, 

wheels, and associated components. 

DEVELOPMENT OF GOVERNMENT-OWNED OBSERVATION ASSETS

The Committee recognizes that other federal agencies, such as 

the National Science Foundation, maintain older space tracking 

and surveillance assets that may potentially assist the Air Force 

with its own space tracking and surveillance mission. The Committee encourages the Secretary of the Air Force, in coordination 

with the Director of the National Science Foundation and any other 

appropriate directors of federal agencies that maintain similar assets, to analyze the potential capabilities of federal facilities or observatory assets for potential space tracking and surveillance missions. The Committee directs the Secretary of the Air Force to submit a report to the congressional defense committees not later than 

180 days after the enactment of this Act on the potential for expanded space tracking and surveillance uses of other governmentowned assets, any associated costs with developing or increasing 

necessary capabilities, and how such assets could be used to further the Air Force mission. The report may be submitted with a 

classified annex if necessary. 

REFRACTORY METAL ALLOYS

The Committee supports Air Force research into refractory metal 

alloys and recognizes that these alloys may provide a contribution 

to the development of a new generation of jet propulsion systems. 

The Committee encourages the Secretary of the Air Force to continue the exploration of refractory metal alloys that have higher 

stress and temperature tolerances and that may potentially lead to 

self-healing jet turbine parts. 

AIR-TO-GROUND TACTICAL WEAPON SYSTEMS

The Committee recognizes the future need for an air-to-ground, 

fighter aircraft-capable tactical weapon system to replace existing 

systems and enhance capabilities against peer competitors. The 

Committee encourages the Secretary of the Air Force to study and 

test multi-mode weapon systems that can be mounted on fighter 

aircraft and effectively meet identified requirements to engage a 

range of tactical ground targets, including armor, ships, ground vehicles, and air defense systems. The Committee directs the Secretary of the Air Force to submit a report to the congressional defense committees on current and future air-to-ground tactical weapon systems efforts not later than 60 days after the enactment of 

this Act. 

260 

NORTH ATLANTIC TREATY ORGANIZATION ALLY LAUNCH SERVICES

The Committee directs the Secretary of the Air Force to evaluate 

North Atlantic Treaty Organization ally launch infrastructure to 

determine the capability, cost, and risk associated with procuring 

their launch services on a limited, contingency basis in order to 

provide assured access to space during a period of national emergency. The Committee directs the Secretary of the Air Force to 

brief the findings of this evaluation to the congressional defense 

committees not later than 90 days after the enactment of this Act. 

LASER TECHNOLOGY FOR AIRCRAFT SUSTAINMENT

The Committee understands that technologies such as advanced 

laser coating removal, repair, and additive restoration of aircraft 

surfaces could lead to significant increases in weapon system availability while reducing cost and environmental impact. The Committee encourages the Secretary of the Air Force to support and enhance depot maintenance by further developing advanced laser 

technologies that can be qualified and incorporated at Air Force depots for de-painting, restoration, and repair of aircraft surfaces for 

both metal and composite surfaces.

IDENTITY THREAT MANAGEMENT

Terrorist organizations encourage harassment and violence 

against military personnel and their families. The Committee encourages efforts by the Secretary of Defense and the Service Secretaries to educate and provide security warnings and guidelines to 

help servicemembers manage their online identities. The Committee also supports efforts to develop and deploy software that 

could automate and control sensitive online information about 

servicemembers and their families. 

RECLAIMED REFRIGERANTS

Reclaiming refrigerants aids in the prevention of creating new 

refrigerants and ensures the safe disposal of chemicals. Considering the large number of Department of Defense facilities and the 

widespread use of refrigerants, the Committee directs the Under 

Secretary of Defense (Acquisition, Technology, and Logistics) to 

submit a report to the congressional defense committees not later 

than 120 days after the enactment of this Act that examines the 

feasibility of giving preference to the use of reclaimed refrigerants 

to service existing equipment in Department of Defense facilities. 

ADVANCED DEFENSE TECHNOLOGIES CLUSTERS

The Committee recognizes that developing high technology small 

businesses across the nation provides innovative defense-related 

technologies for ongoing and future Department of Defense requirements. The Committee encourages the Secretary of Defense to engage with these small businesses and regional advanced defense 

technologies clusters that advocate for small businesses to support 

the sustainment and creation of jobs in critical and emerging markets. 

ADVANCED MATERIAL SOLUTIONS FOR DEFENSE APPLICATIONS

Advanced materials, composites, and manufacturing process are 

critical to sustain military readiness and superiority. New materials and improvements to existing materials are important for applications for aircraft, armor, munitions, prosthetics, and batteries. 

While investments in fundamental and applied materials research 

and development have led to notable advancements, challenges remain to understand and characterize materials performance and 

reliability for critical defense applications. Performance and reliability issues are found across the Services that impact current and 

new systems and the life extension of existing platforms. An assessment is required to determine the current status and necessary 

steps to address gaps and improve knowledge utilization to enhance defense readiness through collaboration across research and 

development sectors. 

The Committee directs the Secretary of Defense to perform such 

an assessment with collaboration from academic researchers and 

the commercial sector and to determine advanced materials solutions for defense applications. The assessment should survey and

REPROGRAMMING GUIDANCE FOR THE DEFENSE HEALTH PROGRAM

The Committee includes a provision which caps the funds available for Private Sector Care under the TRICARE program subject 

to prior approval reprogramming procedures. The provision and accompanying report language should not be interpreted as limiting 

the amount of funds that may be transferred to the In-House Care 

budget sub-activity from other budget sub-activities within the Defense Health Program. In addition, funding for the In-House Care 

budget sub-activity continues to be designated as a congressional 

special interest item. Any transfer of funds from the In-House Care 

budget sub-activity into the Private Sector Care budget sub-activity 

or any other budget sub-activity requires the Secretary of Defense 

to follow prior approval reprogramming procedures for operation 

and maintenance funds. 

The Committee directs the Secretary of Defense to provide written notification to the congressional defense committees of cumulative transfers in excess of $10,000,000 out of the Private Sector 

Care budget sub-activity not later than fifteen days after such a 

transfer. Furthermore, the Committee directs the Secretary of Defense to provide a report to the congressional defense committees 

not later than 30 days after the enactment of this Act that delineates transfers of funds in fiscal year 2017, and the dates any 

transfers occurred, from the Private Sector Care budget sub-activity to any other budget sub-activity. 

The Committee further directs the Assistant Secretary of Defense 

(Health Affairs) to provide quarterly reports to the congressional 

defense committees on budget execution data for all of the Defense 

Health Program budget activities and to adequately reflect changes 

to the budget activities requested by the Services in future budget 

submissions. 

CARRYOVER

For fiscal year 2018, the Committee recommends one percent carryover authority for the operation and maintenance account of the 

Defense Health Program. The Committee directs the Assistant Secretary of Defense (Health Affairs) to submit a detailed spending 

plan for any fiscal year 2017 designated carryover funds to the congressional defense committees not less than 30 days prior to executing the carryover funds. 

PEER-REVIEWED CANCER RESEARCH PROGRAMS

The Committee recommends $120,000,000 for the peer-reviewed 

breast cancer research program, $90,000,000 for the peer-reviewed 

prostate cancer research program, $20,000,000 for the peer-reviewed ovarian cancer research program, $10,000,000 for the peerreviewed kidney cancer research program, $12,000,000 for the peerreviewed lung cancer research program, and $30,000,000 for the 

peer-reviewed cancer research program that would research cancers not addressed in the aforementioned programs currently executed by the Department of Defense. 

The funds provided in the peer-reviewed cancer research program are directed to be used to conduct research in the following 

areas: bladder cancer, brain cancer, colorectal cancer, listeria-based 

282 

regimens for cancer, liver cancer, lymphoma, melanoma and other 

skin cancers, mesothelioma, pancreatic cancer, stomach cancer, and 

cancer in children, adolescents, and young adults. 

The funds provided under the peer-reviewed cancer research program shall be used only for the purposes listed above. The Committee directs the Assistant Secretary of Defense (Health Affairs) 

to provide a report not later than 180 days after the enactment of 

this Act to the congressional defense committees on the status of 

the peer-reviewed cancer research program. For each research 

area, the report should include the funding amount awarded, the 

progress of the research, and the relevance of the research to 

servicemembers and their families. 

The Committee commends the Department of Defense for ensuring that projects funded through the various peer-reviewed cancer 

research programs maintain a focus on issues of significance to 

military populations and the warfighter. This includes promoting 

collaborative research proposals between Department of Defense 

researchers and non-military research institutions. These collaborations leverage the knowledge, infrastructure, and access to clinical 

populations that the partners bring to the research effort. Additionally, promoting these collaborations provides a valuable recruitment and retention incentive for military medical and research personnel. The Committee encourages the Assistant Secretary of Defense (Health Affairs) to continue to emphasize the importance of 

these collaborations between military and non-military researchers 

throughout the peer review process. 

METASTATIC CANCER RESEARCH

The Committee continues to support the establishment of a task 

force to research metastasized cancer with a focus on clinical and 

translational research aimed at extending the lives of advanced 

state and recurrent patients. The Committee directs the Assistant 

Secretary of Defense (Health Affairs) to submit an updated report 

to the congressional defense committees not later than 60 days 

after the enactment of this Act on the status of the establishment 

of a task force under the Congressionally Directed Medical Research Program to focus on research for metastatic cancer of all 

types. 

ELECTRONIC HEALTH RECORDS

The Committee recognizes the recent efforts to improve the Department’s electronic health records, and supports the announcement by the Administration on a new effort for a joint Department 

of Defense and Department of Veterans Affairs health record system. The Committee reiterates that the two systems must be completely and meaningfully interoperable and encourages the Under 

Secretary of Defense (Acquisition, Technology, and Logistics) to 

focus on the overall goal of seamless compatibility between the two 

Departments’ electronic health record systems. Furthermore, the 

Committee directs the Director of the Interagency Program Office 

(IPO) to continue to provide quarterly reports on the progress of 

interoperability between the two Departments to the House and 

Senate Defense Appropriations Subcommittees and the House and 

Senate Military Construction, Veterans Affairs, and Related AgenVerDate Sep 11 2014 11:13 Jul 14, 2017 Jkt 025997 PO 00000 Frm 00292 Fmt 6601 Sfmt 6602 E:\HR\OC\HR219.XXX HR219
283 

cies Appropriations Subcommittees. Additionally, the Program Executive Officer (PEO) for Defense Healthcare Management Systems 

(DHMS), in conjunction with the Director of the IPO, is directed to 

provide quarterly reports to the congressional defense committees 

on the cost and schedule of the program, to include milestones, 

knowledge points, and acquisition timelines, as well as quarterly 

obligation reports. The Committee directs the PEO DHMS to continue briefing the House and Senate Defense Appropriations Subcommittees on a quarterly basis, coinciding with the report submission. 

THE CANCER CENTER AT WALTER REED NATIONAL MILITARY MEDICAL

CENTER

The Committee recognizes that close cooperation between The 

John P. Murtha Cancer Center at Walter Reed National Military 

Medical Center and the Assistant Secretary of Defense (Health Affairs) has enabled the formation of a partnership between the Murtha Cancer Center and the Oncology Research Information Exchange Network (ORIEN). The Murtha Cancer Center is the only 

center of excellence for cancer care in the military health system. 

This partnership allows the Murtha Cancer Center to collaborate 

in cancer research with several academic cancer centers that all 

use a single protocol for long-term health surveillance of cancer patients to correlate patterns in cancer incidence, treatment response, 

and survivorship with genetic information, demographic data, and 

other factors. The Murtha Cancer Center has begun ORIEN enrollment with patients at the Walter Reed National Military Medical 

Center and is preparing to facilitate enrollment at military treatment facilities throughout the United States. The Committee commends the Assistant Secretary of Defense (Health Affairs) for assisting the Murtha Cancer Center in entering this partnership and 

encourages increased support to allow for continued expansion of 

this effort to deliver enhanced cancer treatment for all 

servicemembers and their families. 

EMERGING INFECTIOUS DISEASES

The Committee understands that the impact of infectious diseases on servicemembers can be significant, including lost service 

time, reduction in operational readiness, and an increased logistical 

burden to provide replacement troops. Disease surveillance, rapid 

detection, and outbreak response are essential to providing an 

early warning of emerging risks. The critical role the Department 

of Defense played in the swift response to viral outbreaks of Ebola 

and Zika demonstrates the value of continued investment in military infectious disease research capabilities. The Committee encourages the Assistant Secretary of Defense (Health Affairs) to pursue partnerships with colleges and universities that have strong research programs in emerging infectious diseases and to support research efforts that incorporate genomic technologies, 

bioinformatics, and computational biology. 

284 

COMBAT OCULAR TRAUMA

The Committee is concerned by incidents of combat ocular trauma, which is an injury to the eye or neuro-ophthalmological pathways. These injuries often result in severe vision loss and visual 

dysfunction. The Committee encourages the Assistant Secretary of 

Defense (Health Affairs) to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of 

treatments such as transcorneal electrical stimulation to improve 

visual function after ocular trauma. 

EXPANDED CANINE THERAPY RESEARCH

The Committee is aware that canine therapy for treatment of 

post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and traumatic brain injury 

(TBI) symptoms is a promising alternative to pharmaceutical treatment. While still experimental, canine therapy has shown effectiveness in treating PTSD and other psychological disorders, from hospitalized psychiatric patients to children with developmental disorders, patients with substance abuse problems, and victims of 

trauma. Servicemembers who participate in canine programs for 

PTSD and TBI show more positive social interactions, a decrease 

in suicidal thoughts, and an increased sense of safety, independence, motivation, and self-efficacy. The Committee notes that canine therapy is a promising area for further research as a complementary or alternative treatment for the signature wounds sustained in ongoing conflicts. Therefore, the Committee continues to 

encourage the Service Surgeons General to initiate or expand research into canine therapy to validate its therapeutic effectiveness 

in the treatment of PTSD and TBI. 

OPIOID ABUSE IN THE MILITARY

The Committee continues to be concerned by the high rate of 

opioid abuse among servicemembers. Despite low levels of illicit 

drug use, abuse of prescription drugs by servicemembers is higher 

than in the general population. The Committee understands that 

servicemembers face unique wartime stresses—multiple deployments and combat exposure can lead to conditions such as posttraumatic stress disorder, which can further exacerbate the need 

for pain medications. 

The Committee notes the strong commitment of the Department 

of Defense and the Department of Veterans Affairs to research improved pain management protocols, including the formation of a 

Pain Management Task Force. A National Advisory Council on 

Complementary and Integrative Health working group recommended that the Department of Defense and the Department of 

Veterans Affairs undertake one or more large-scale studies to answer important policy and patient care questions about the use of 

integrative approaches in pain management. The Committee encourages the Assistant Secretary of Defense (Health Affairs) to examine the feasibility of completing the large-scale studies. Additionally, the Centers for Disease Control recently published guidelines for prescribing opioids for chronic pain. The Committee encourages the Assistant Secretary of Defense (Health Affairs) to ensure its prescribers are familiar with the guidelines and to 

285 

prioritize abuse-deterrent formulations of prescription opioids 

through TRICARE formularies. 

CHRONIC KIDNEY DISEASE

The Committee is concerned by the prevalence of chronic kidney 

disease amongst veterans. Chronic kidney disease may be caused 

by a decrease in water retention that may occur during sustained 

training and may lead to increased morbidity and mortality rates. 

The Committee encourages the Assistant Secretary of Defense 

(Health Affairs) to collaborate with research institutions currently 

investigating the correlation between chronic dehydration and 

chronic kidney disease. 

MENTAL HEALTH PROVIDERS

The Committee supports the Department’s continuing efforts to 

ensure that servicemembers have access to high quality mental 

health services and providers. In order to ensure that the Department continues to have full access to qualified clinical psychologists, the Committee encourages the Assistant Secretary of Defense 

(Health Affairs) to review its regulations regarding employment of 

clinical psychologists who graduate from schools accredited by the 

Psychologist Clinical Science Accreditation System. 

MILITARY MEDICAL PROFESSIONALS AND THE DEPARTMENT OF

VETERANS AFFAIRS

The Committee remains concerned about the transition of separating servicemembers into civilian life, the difficulties they may 

face in securing employment, and the shortage of staff at the Veterans Health Administration. The Committee encourages the Assistant Secretary of Defense (Health Affairs) to work jointly with 

the Department of Veterans Affairs to establish a program to encourage Department of Defense medical professionals to seek employment with the Veterans Health Administration when the individual has been discharged or released from service or is contemplating separating from service. 

ADVANCED ORTHOPEDIC SURGICAL SURGERY

The Committee understands that servicemembers often must undergo orthopedic procedures and that musculoskeletal injuries account for a significant number of medical separations or retirements from military service. Delivery of direct training based on 

best practices related to orthopedic procedures for injuries to the 

knee, shoulder, and other extremities has become an increasingly 

important readiness issue. The Committee encourages the Assistant Secretary of Defense (Health Affairs) to ensure that military 

orthopedic health professionals are provided with opportunities for 

advanced surgical training in arthroscopic techniques and to explore partnerships with medical professional societies that maintain best practices related to arthroscopic surgery and techniques. 

IMPACT OF GUT MICROBIOME ON CHRONIC CONDITIONS

The Committee is concerned by the escalating cost of managing 

chronic diseases such as hypertension, diabetes, and kidney disease 

286 

in active and retired military personnel and recognizes that research of gut microbiome may positively impact these conditions in 

the future. The Committee encourages the Assistant Secretary of 

Defense (Health Affairs) to perform research aimed at better understanding the role of the gut microbiome in chronic disease with 

an aim of developing drug and nutritional regimens to enhance the 

well-being of active and retired military servicemembers. 

NON-OPIATE PAIN MANAGEMENT

The Committee is concerned by the escalating cost of opioidbased pain medication and the increase in the number of opiate 

prescriptions over the last several years. The Committee believes 

that alternative forms of pain management have promise and may 

be able to reduce the Department’s financial obligation to treat 

pain while reducing rates of addiction for servicemembers and their 

families. The Committee encourages the Assistant Secretary of Defense (Health Affairs) to expand the Department’s research, in 

partnership with leading pain management healthcare systems, 

into activities designed to reduce pain among children and adult 

populations without the use of addictive pain medication. 

TRAUMATIC BRAIN INJURY AND POST-TRAUMATIC STRESS DISORDER

PILOT PROGRAM

The National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2014 authorized a pilot program on investigational treatment of members 

of the armed forces for traumatic brain injury and post-traumatic 

stress disorder. The program allows military patients to receive 

care from private physicians who provide innovative treatment options not necessarily available within military medical facilities. 

The Committee directs the Assistant Secretary of Defense (Health 

Affairs) to provide a report to the congressional defense committees 

not later than 60 days after the enactment of this Act on the status 

of the pilot program and a detailed accounting of the funding obligated to date. 

MILD TRAUMATIC BRAIN INJURY

When mild traumatic brain injury is not identified and treated 

appropriately, vestibular impairments can persist, which may lead 

to long-term morbidity in military personnel and veterans. The 

Committee encourages the Assistant Secretary of Defense (Health 

Affairs) to collaborate with research institutions currently investigating mild traumatic brain injury-related vestibular impairments. 

MEDICAL INSTRUMENT INSPECTION

Transmission of infectious agents to patients via reusable medical instruments is an unnecessary hazard. The Committee believes 

that there is a need to ensure that the working channels of reusable medical and surgical instruments are free from infectious 

agents. The Committee encourages the Assistant Secretary of Defense (Health Affairs) to develop a plan to evaluate visual inspection and documentation systems to detect pathogens and to ensure 

287 

the safety of the working channels of reusable medical and surgical 

instruments used in military treatment facilities. 

MESSENGER RNA

The Committee is encouraged by the potential of messenger RNA 

(mRNA) to combat and prevent a multitude of diseases and injuries. Recent advances in the development of clinical-grade mRNA 

have created a new therapeutic platform that may facilitate breakthroughs in cellular therapies, enhance the reach of regenerative 

medicine, generate better vaccines against infectious diseases and 

cancer, and restore, repair, and regenerate cells and tissue. The 

Committee encourages the Assistant Secretary of Defense (Health 

Affairs) to investigate mRNA therapeutics that will benefit 

servicemembers and to partner with institutions that have relevant 

expertise in the innovation and clinical development of clinicalgrade mRNA therapeutics. 

POST-TRAUMATIC STRESS DISORDERS DIAGNOSES

The Committee is concerned by the burden of proof required of 

servicemembers who have post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) 

but have not been formally diagnosed. Without a proper diagnosis, 

servicemembers can be discharged with an inappropriate designation. The Committee commends the work of the Government Accountability Office (GAO) which noted the inconsistencies between 

military Service policies and Department of Defense policies to address the impact of PTSD on separations for misconduct. The Committee directs the Secretary of Defense to brief the congressional 

defense committees not later than 90 days after the enactment of 

this Act on the status of efforts to better diagnose and address 

PTSD cases prior to discharge and the timeline for implementation 

of the GAO recommendations. 

PEER-REVIEWED LUPUS RESEARCH

Lupus affects more than 1,500,000 people in the United States 

and disproportionately affects women, minorities, and individuals 

between the ages of 14 and 45. Given the increasing number of 

women in the military Services, the fact that nearly half of all 

women servicemembers are African American, and the age range 

of servicemembers, the Committee is concerned about the potential 

impact of lupus on the military. The Committee recommendation 

includes $5,000,000 for peer-reviewed lupus research and the Committee encourages the Assistant Secretary of Defense (Health Affairs) to continue to support lupus research. 

TECHNOLOGY SOLUTIONS FOR PSYCHOLOGICAL HEALTH

The Committee is encouraged by the Department’s investment in 

technology that allows servicemembers access to behavioral health 

services, including videoconferencing platforms that can be delivered in both garrison and deployed locations. However, it is imperative that all servicemembers are aware of the resources available 

to them and how to readily gain access to assistance when needed. 

The Committee directs the Assistant Secretary of Defense (Health 

Affairs) to provide a report to the congressional defense committees 

288 

not later than 90 days after the enactment of this Act that details 

a strategy for delivering tele-behavioral health services to 

servicemembers.

Universities, and other Minority Serving Institutions. The Committee directs the Assistant Secretary of Defense (Health Affairs) 

to brief the House and Senate Appropriations Committees not later

efforts to collaborate with these institutions in the health research 

field.

systems utilized in the private sector have demonstrated an ability 

to lower healthcare costs by helping families optimize their employer-sponsored benefits. The Committee encourages the Assistant 

Secretary of Defense (Health Affairs) to continue exploring ways to 

utilize healthcare navigators through the military health system in 

order to provide enhanced clinical outcomes, improved beneficiary 

experience, and reduced utilization in order to lower healthcare 

costs.

Commander of the Air Mobility Command, to establish agreements 

with biocontainment units that have extensive experience in the 

treatment and transport of highly infectious patients.

TITLE IX 

OVERSEAS CONTINGENCY OPERATIONS/GLOBAL WAR ON 

TERRORISM 

COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATION

In title IX, the Committee recommends total new appropriations 

of $73,934,000,000. A detailed review of the Committee recommendation for programs funded in this title is provided in the 

following pages. 

REPORTING REQUIREMENTS

The Committee recommendation includes a number of reporting 

requirements related to contingency operations and building capacity efforts. The Committee directs the Secretary of Defense to continue to report incremental costs for all named operations in the 

Central Command area of responsibility on a quarterly basis and 

to submit, also on a quarterly basis, commitment, obligation, and 

expenditure data for the Afghanistan Security Forces Fund, the 

Counter-Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant Train and Equip 

Fund, and for all security cooperation programs funded under the 

Defense Security Cooperation Agency in the Operation and Maintenance, Defense-Wide account. 

INTELLIGENCE, SURVEILLANCE AND RECONNAISSANCE FUND

The Committee recommendation includes $500,000,000 to continue support for the Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance 

(ISR) Fund, the same as the fiscal year 2017 enacted level. The 

Committee has repeatedly heard from combatant commanders of 

their need for greater capacity and capability in ISR, and commends the Secretary of Defense and the Service leaders for aggressively working to address this need. The Committee remains concerned about the capability of current bandwidth capacity to meet 

the rapidly growing demand for increased communications and ISR 

information. The Committee encourages the Secretary of Defense 

and the Service Secretaries to identify opportunities for demand reduction, spectral efficiency, and new technological investments to 

ensure that warfighters have the timely and accurate information 

they rely upon. 

MILITARY PERSONNEL 

The Committee recommends an additional appropriation of 

$5,276,276,000 for Military Personnel. The Committee recommendation for each military personnel account is as follows:

Strategy. The Secretary of Defense is directed to submit to the congressional defense committees a proposed allocation plan, including 

a detailed budget justification for the use of such funds and a description of how such investments are necessary to implement the 

strategy, not fewer than 30 days prior to making transfers from the 

fund. Transfers from the fund are subject to prior approval from 

the congressional defense committees.

COUNTERTERRORISM EFFORTS TO BUILD PARTNERSHIP CAPACITY IN

THE UNITED STATES SOUTHERN COMMAND AREA OF RESPONSIBILITY

The Committee recognizes that the United States Southern Command historically has been engaged in successful counter-drug 

partnership programs while its counterterrorism building partnership capacity efforts have been limited by a lack of funding and authorities. The Committee notes that Department of Defense officials agree that it is time to expand counterterrorism efforts to 

build the capacity of nations within the United States Southern 

Command area of responsibility. These efforts would focus on tactical level training, sensitive site exploitation, biometric assessment, basic mission planning, close quarters battle, and urban 

movement. Once tactical units of partner nations show an acceptable level of proficiency in these tasks, training focus would shift 

to more advanced tactical tasks and higher level mission planning 

efforts including operations and intelligence fusion. To master 

these tasks, partner nations will likely require equipment, limited 

small scale construction, and extensive training. 

The Committee encourages the Secretary of Defense to expand 

its counterterrorism efforts to the nations within the United States 

Southern Command area of responsibility. Building partnership capacity within each partner nation will allow effective host government management of their own counterterrorism strategy. 

UNITED STATES SUPPORT TO AFGHAN NATIONAL DEFENSE FORCES AND

IRAQI SECURITY FORCES

The Committee is aware that United States support to Afghan 

National Defense and Security Forces (ANDSF) in the area of service support activities is often conducted by United States-based 

contractors. Conditions for United States forces in Afghanistan are 

set by the Bilateral Security Agreement—a complex and lengthy 

document negotiated by the Secretary of State and the Islamic Republic of Afghanistan. 

According to the agreement, Afghan taxes and other fees are not 

imposed on the entry or exit of goods specifically for the use of 

United States forces. However, the agreement fails to mention the 

taxation of United States-based defense contractors in support of 

the ANDSF. The result of this omission is that United States-based 

contractors that conduct a supporting role in Afghanistan are not 

subject to the taxation exemption for the entry and exit of goods 

necessary to support their missions. This increases the costs of 

services performed by such contractors. 

Additionally, the United States is party to a Status of Forces 

Agreement and a Strategic Framework Agreement with the Republic of Iraq. Similar taxation implications affecting United Statesbased contractors are void in these agreements. 

The Committee encourages the Secretary of Defense, in coordination with the Secretary of State, to address the taxation of United 

States-based defense contractors in support of the ANDSF and 

Iraqi Security Forces when negotiating future agreements.

OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE, NATIONAL DEFENSE RESTORATION

FUND

In addition to the amounts provided in the preceding table, the 

Committee recommends an additional $2,000,000,000 for the Operation and Maintenance, National Defense Restoration Fund, in 

order to improve the warfighting readiness of the military Services 

and defense agencies and meet overseas contingency requirements. 

The Committee directs that the funding be used to meet the requirements necessary to implement the 2018 National Defense 

Strategy. The Secretary of Defense is directed to submit to the congressional defense committees a proposed allocation plan, including 

a detailed budget justification for the use of such funds and a description of how such investments are necessary to implement the 

strategy, not fewer than 30 days prior to making transfers from the 

fund. Transfers from the fund are subject to prior approval from 

the congressional defense committees. 

AFGHANISTAN SECURITY FORCES FUND

The Committee recommends an additional appropriation of 

$4,937,515,000 for the Afghanistan Security Forces Fund. 

VETTING OF FOREIGN SECURITY FORCES

The Committee is aware of a concern regarding allegations of 

sexual abuse of children committed by members of the Afghan security forces. 

The Committee has been made aware of concerns the Department of Defense only began vetting foreign security forces in 2014 

and has lagged in its progress because there is not a permanent 

position within the Department to oversee human rights vetting 

with regard to the Afghanistan security forces. The Committee directs the Secretary of Defense to establish a permanent position to 

oversee human rights vetting with regard to the Afghanistan security forces. 

COUNTER-ISLAMIC STATE OF IRAQ AND THE LEVANT TRAIN AND EQUIP

FUND

The Committee recommends an additional appropriation of 

$1,769,000,000 for the Counter-Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant Train and Equip Fund. 

PROCUREMENT 

The Committee recommends an additional appropriation of 

$16,462,540,000 for Procurement. The Committee recommendation 

for each procurement account is as follows:

NATIONAL GUARD AND RESERVE EQUIPMENT

The Committee recommends $1,000,000,000 for National Guard 

and Reserve Equipment. Of that amount, $330,000,000 is for the 

Army National Guard; $330,000,000 is for the Air National Guard; 

$130,000,000 is for the Army Reserve; $50,000,000 is for the Navy 

Reserve; $10,000,000 is for the Marine Corps Reserve; and 

$150,000,000 is for the Air Force Reserve to meet urgent equipment needs that may arise in the coming fiscal year. 

This funding will allow the National Guard and reserve components to procure high priority equipment that may be used by 

these units for both their combat missions and their missions in 

support of state governors. The funding within this account is not 

to be used to procure equipment that has been designated as high 

density critical equipment, major weapon systems, aircraft, and 

other equipment central to a unit’s ability to perform its doctrinal 

mission. The funding within this account is not to be used to procure equipment that should be purchased by the senior Service, to 

expand or accelerate current Service procurement plans, to purchase expendable items, or to purchase facilities or equipment for 

any requirement that can be satisfied elsewhere. 

The Committee directs the Secretary of Defense to ensure that 

the National Guard and Reserve Equipment account shall be executed by the Chiefs of the National Guard and reserve components 

with priority consideration given to the following items: acoustic 

hailing devices, active electronically scanned array radars, advanced targeting pods, crashworthy ballistically tolerant auxiliary 

fuel systems, electromagnetic in-flight propeller balance systems, 

joint threat emitters, large aircraft infrared countermeasures, modular and self-contained ranges, satellite broadband for aircraft, 

training systems/simulators, unmanned systems for rapid emergency search and rescue support, unstabilized gunnery crew and 

small arms trainers, and wireless mobile mesh self-healing network 

systems. 

PROCUREMENT, NATIONAL DEFENSE RESTORATION FUND

In addition to the amounts provided in the preceding table, the 

Committee recommends an additional $6,000,000,000 for the Procurement, National Defense Restoration Fund, in order to replace

agencies. The Committee directs that the funding be used to meet 

the requirements necessary to implement the 2018 National Defense Strategy. The Secretary of Defense is directed to submit to 

the congressional defense committees a proposed allocation plan, 

including a detailed budget justification for the use of such funds 

and a description of how such investments are necessary to implement the strategy, not fewer than 30 days prior to making transfers from the fund. Transfers from the fund are subject to prior approval from the congressional defense committees.

(377) 

ADDITIONAL VIEWS—FISCAL YEAR 2018 DEPARTMENT OF 

DEFENSE APPROPRIATIONS BILL 

With this bill, the Committee has carried out its Constitutional 

responsibility to recommend the appropriations necessary to provide for the common defense of our Nation. The Committee did this 

in a collegial and bipartisan fashion consistent with its long-standing traditions. 

The base portion of this bill provides $584,124,519,000 in Fiscal 

Year 2018 discretionary funding covering all Department of Defense (DoD) and Intelligence Community functions except for Military Construction and Family Housing. This is $18,233,113,000 

above the President’s budget request, and $68,009,519,000 above 

last year’s enacted level. The Overseas Contingency Operations/ 

Global War on Terrorism (OCO/GWOT) portion provides a total of 

$73,934,000,000, an increase of $9,999,130,000 above the President’s budget request. 

There are many aspects of this bill we can agree upon. The legislation, as written, has the potential to fill many of the military’s 

readiness gaps and maintain the strategic technological advantage 

the United States enjoys today. Further, Democrats and Republicans agree we have a duty to provide predictable and timely appropriations to the Department of Defense and the rest of the federal government, consistent with the repeated requests of senior 

defense leaders. 

Unfortunately, at this moment, we are not optimistic about the 

chances of this bill’s independent enactment in a timely fashion. 

Most prominent of the obstacles facing this legislation is the 

Budget Control Act of 2011, more commonly referred to as the 

BCA. This bill greatly exceeds the cap on defense spending established under the BCA for FY 2018, so much so that if the House 

bills were enacted as written, and the BCA caps remain in place, 

the Department of Defense would face a sequester of roughly 13 

percent. The Department has still not recovered from the rash of 

problems caused by sequestration in FY 2013. The Department 

savaged its Operation and Maintenance accounts in the second half 

of FY 2013 to continue ongoing contingency operations and to protect Military Personnel accounts. This resulted in the Navy idling 

an aircraft carrier at a pier in Norfolk, the Army cancelling training rotations, the Air Force greatly reducing flight times for its 

combat coded aircraft, and widespread civilian furloughs. We simply cannot allow that to happen in FY 2018. 

The Nation has avoided the effects of sequestration since FY 

2013 because Congress and the previous Administration worked in 

a bipartisan and bicameral fashion to provide additional investments for our men and women in uniform, and for programs that 

improve our country’s economic and physical infrastructure, scientific research, public health system, and veterans care. The curVerDate Sep 11 2014 11:13 Jul 14, 2017 Jkt 025997 PO 00000 Frm 00387 Fmt 6604 Sfmt 6604 E:\HR\OC\HR219.XXX HR219

rent FY 2018 budget reportedly proposed by the House Majority, 

exceeds the BCA cap by more than $70 billion for defense spending 

and is $5 billion under the cap for nondefense, ignoring these past 

compromises. While the House Majority rumored budget may cause 

angst, it is vastly superior to the nonsensical budget put forth by 

the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) in May. If past is 

prologue, after this bill passes the House, it will sit idle until midSeptember, when we begin the tortured process of short term continuing resolutions, shutdown brinksmanship, possibly an increase 

in the BCA caps, and then, maybe an Omnibus. This is the very 

outcome the Secretary of Defense stated he did not want to happen. 

The only path out of uncertainty for this fiscal year is a bipartisan agreement on discretionary spending levels. Investments in 

communities by the government have positive economic effects that 

would be lost through draconian cuts. Congress might disagree on 

the ways to generate more revenue or reform entitlements, but our 

fiscal health cannot be improved by slashing discretionary spending 

only. 

Setting aside our frustration with the process, we also wish to 

express our concern with the significant increase in funding this 

bill would provide to the Department of Defense—$60 billion more 

than FY 2017 and $29 billion more than the Department requested. We support providing additional funding to the Department, as we believe we are asking too much of our brave service 

members and their families. Also, to put it mildly, the world is a 

very unsettled place and not moving towards stability. However, 

we believe the Department will have difficulty spending so many 

additional dollars in a timely, efficient, and transparent manner. 

Vacancies in important leadership positions within the Department, and hiring restrictions on civilian employees will slow the decision making process. Currently, the Department is in the midst 

of four comprehensive strategic reviews, including: the National 

Defense Strategy, the Nuclear Posture Review, the Afghanistan 

Strategy Review, and the Counter-ISIS Plan. Each is ongoing and 

their impact on spending during FY 2018 is unknown. Finally, it 

is not likely Congress will complete our work in a timely manner 

and any dollars provided will have to be spent in a compressed 

timeline, much like the current year. 

Given these concerns, we especially appreciate Chairwoman 

Granger’s cooperation to include bill and report language in the 

Manager’s Amendment in order to meet our constitutional oversight responsibility and require transparency into the Defense Restoration Funds. These Funds account for $18.6 billion in the base 

bill and $10 billion in the Overseas Contingency Operations accounts. The added restrictions strengthen our ability to oversee the 

Department’s actions. 

We would like to reiterate a concern we expressed in the additional views to accompany the FY 2017 report and that is our displeasure with the continued reliance on OCO funding. It is increasingly difficult after sixteen years of war to argue our military is engaged in a contingency. Throughout the past years, even with the 

fluctuations in troop levels in each theater of war, the activities 

have remained somewhat constant, and with a decade plus of hisVerDate Sep 11 2014 11:13 Jul 14, 2017 Jkt 025997 PO 00000 Frm 00388 Fmt 6604 Sfmt 6604 E:\HR\OC\HR219.XXX HR219

torical execution data, most of these activities should be resourced 

as enduring requirements, not unforeseen events. 

Additionally, we are pleased the committee held a constructive 

discussion and agreed to an amendment offered by our colleague, 

Rep. Barbara Lee, to force Congress to discuss a new Authorization 

of Military Force (AUMF) for the Global War on Terror. The 

amendment accomplishes this by repealing the 2001 AUMF 240 

days after the bill is enacted. That is ample time to complete this 

difficult task. The current AUMF, crafted days immediately after 

the attacks on September 11, 2001, has been broadly interpreted 

by three administrations to justify military activities across a 

swath of countries. Some of the current adversaries, most notably 

the Islamic State, were not in existence in 2001. Further, only 22 

percent of Members of the House of Representatives in the 115th 

Congress were serving the last time an AUMF was enacted. As one 

of our Republican colleagues stated in the debate on the Lee 

Amendment, if we are asking our men and women in uniform to 

have the courage to risk their lives, Congress should at least have 

the courage to provide a clear legal justification for the conflicts 

they are fighting. This echoed sentiments stated by Secretary of 

Defense and the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs, who testified before 

the Defense Subcommittee on June 15, 2017, and both unequivocally and forcefully stated their support for a new AUMF. Congress 

should respond to their call for action. 

We are disappointed that a Democratic amendment was not 

agreed to that would have required the committee to adopt a full 

slate of subcommittee allocations before considering any bills. In 

the absence of a complete list of 302(b) allocations, the committee 

adopted an interim number for the Military Construction and Veterans Affairs bill, but did not even do that for the Defense bill. Not 

considering full allocations is a break from our long-standing practice and is a gross departure from the ‘‘regular order’’ Republicans 

frequently discuss but consistently ignore. 

Without allocations, members have no way to evaluate how each 

bill fits into the larger discretionary picture. Setting aside the Defense bill’s breach of the BCA cap, after considering the first three 

bills of the year, the committee has approved bills totaling $677.5 

billion in spending that applies to the BCA limits, which represents 

64 percent of total of allowable discretionary spending for FY 2018. 

That leaves the remaining nine bills, including the largest domestic 

bill, with only 36 percent of the statutory discretionary limit. This 

will necessitate deep cuts below FY 2017 levels for the remaining 

bills. 

This committee has a long history of working in a bipartisan faction to produce a full slate of bills. That bipartisan cooperation requires transparency and cannot be accomplished when the majority 

works in secret to develop allocations that it does not publicly release. 

380 

In closing, we applaud the Chairwoman and the staff for putting 

together this legislation in less than ideal circumstances. We look 

forward to continuing to work with her, the Members of the Committee, and staff in completing the difficult task before us.
