                     CLASSIFIED PROGRAM ADJUSTMENTS

    The Committee recommends adjustments to certain classified 
programs, as explained in the classified annex to the 
Committee's report.

                         COMMITTEE ALLOCATIONS

    The Appropriations Committee conformed fully to the budget 
estimates for defense spending in the Committee's allocation. 
This allocation divided the budget authority and outlays among 
the subcommittees with jurisdiction over discretionary 
spending. In this recommended bill, the Appropriations 
Committee has remained within the constraints of its allocation 
for defense.

              TIMELINESS OF BUDGET JUSTIFICATION MATERIALS

    By law, the President is required to submit a budget 
estimate to the Congress not later than the first Monday in 
February of each year. This budget ``shall include a budget 
message and summary and supporting information'' (31 U.S.C. 
1105).
    The budget volumes compiled by the Office of Management and 
Budget are presented in time to meet the statutory deadline. 
However, the substantive, programmatic, detailed budget 
justification materials--supporting information--from the 
Department of Defense all too often are presented weeks or 
months later.
    This year, the Committee was still receiving budget 
justification materials in June. The practice of delivering 
budget justification documents months after the statutory 
deadline seriously impedes the Committee's ability to do its 
work.
    The Committee expects this problem to be resolved with 
presentation of the fiscal year 2005 budget estimate. While the 
Committee does not expect every DOD budget justification 
document to be presented concurrent with delivery of the 
President's fiscal year 2005 budget estimate on February 2, 
2004, significant improvement in the timeliness of budget 
justification materials can and must be made.
    The Committee directs the Under Secretary of Defense 
(Comptroller) to develop and then implement a plan to achieve 
this goal. At a minimum, the Committee directs that all fiscal 
year 2005 budget justification materials are to be received not 
later than March 8, 2004, or five weeks after the budget 
presentation.
    Further, the Committee directs the Under Secretary of 
Defense (Comptroller) to report in writing to the congressional 
defense committees on the detailed status of the submission of 
budget justification materials. This report is to be submitted 
February 2, 2004, and weekly thereafter until all budget 
justification materials have been received by the Congress.

                                TITLE I

                           MILITARY PERSONNEL

    Funds appropriated under this title provide the resources 
required for basic pay, retired pay accrual, Medicare eligible 
retiree health care accrual, employer's contribution for Social 
Security taxes, basic allowance for housing, basic allowance 
for subsistence, special and incentive pays, permanent change 
of station travel, and other personnel costs for uniformed 
members of the Armed Forces.
    The President's fiscal year 2004 budget requests a total of 
$98,944,265,000 for military personnel appropriations. This 
request funds an Active component end strength of 1,388,100 and 
a Reserve component end strength of 863,300.

                      SUMMARY OF COMMITTEE ACTION

    The Committee recommends military personnel appropriations 
totaling $98,939,987,000 for fiscal year 2004. This is 
$4,278,000 below the budget estimate.
    The Committee recommends funding an Active component end 
strength of 1,388,100 for fiscal year 2004, the same as the 
budget estimate. The Committee recommends funding a Reserve 
component end strength of 863,330 for fiscal year 2004, an 
increase of 30 above the budget estimate.
    Committee recommended military personnel appropriations for 
fiscal year 2004 are summarized below:

                      Military Personnel Overview

    The Committee notes that the fiscal year 2004 budget 
estimate represents a significant increase in the military 
personnel accounts. The fiscal year 2004 military personnel 
budget estimate is $4,696,407,000 above the fiscal year 2003 
estimate. Major initiatives include:
    Consolidation of the Military Personnel Accounts.--The 
budget estimate seeks to consolidate the National Guard and 
Reserve military personnel appropriations with their respective 
active duty appropriation. The Committee is opposed to the 
consolidation of the appropriation accounts as requested, but 
supports consolidating budget activities within the individual 
National Guard and Reserve appropriations. The use of a single 
budget activity will provide greater flexibility for the Guard 
and Reserve commanders in executing their missions, without 
diluting congressional oversight.
    The Committee recommends realigning the budget estimate as 
follows:

                                            [In thousands of dollars]

                                                      Active          Reserve     National Guard    Net change
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Army............................................      -9,097,944      +3,583,625      +5,514,319  ..............
Navy............................................      -2,028,153      +2,028,153  ..............  ..............
Marine Corps....................................        -587,444        +587,444  ..............  ..............
Air Force.......................................      -3,554,986      +1,331,888      +2,223,098  ..............
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Targeted Pay Raise.--The budget estimate provides for a 4.1 
percent average increase in the basic pay for military 
personnel, with the minimum pay raise for junior personnel of 2 
percent and a targeted pay raise of up to 6.25 percent for mid-
career officers and senior noncommissioned officers. The 
Committee supports an average pay raise of 4.15 percent with a 
minimum pay raise of 3.7 percent as authorized in the Senate 
passed version of the fiscal year 2004 National Defense 
Authorization bill. The Committee provides $31,952,000 above 
the budget estimate to fund the increased pay tables authorized 
by the Senate.
    Reduced Out-of-Pocket Housing Costs.--The budget estimate 
includes funds to continue the effort to increase Basic 
Allowance for Housing rates, and to reduce servicemember's 
average out-of-pocket housing expense from the current 7.5 
percent to 3.5 percent in fiscal year 2004. This increase in 
Basic Allowance for Housing funding is consistent with the 
Department's goal to eliminate the average out-of-pocket 
expense completely by fiscal year 2005.
    Active Component End Strength.--The Committee supports the 
President's budget request for a decrease of 1,900 to Navy 
active end strength, and an increase of 300 to Air Force active 
end strength.

          FAMILY SEPARATION ALLOWANCE AND IMMINENT DANGER PAY

    The Committee supports the permanent increase of Family 
Separation Allowance from $100 per month to $250 per month and 
Imminent Danger Pay from $150 per month to $225 per month as 
authorized in the Senate passed version of the fiscal year 2004 
Defense Authorization bill. The Committee provides an 
additional $210,205,000 to fund the increased benefit.

           CONCURRENT RECEIPT FOR RETIRED MILITARY PERSONNEL

    At the time of the Committee's mark up of the fiscal year 
2004 defense bill, the Senate authorized full concurrent 
receipt for military retirees who were disabled as a result of 
military service, which will enable them to receive both their 
full retired pay and their full veterans disability 
compensation beginning in fiscal year 2004. The House 
recommended no similar provision.
    The Committee endorses the benefit, but is deferring action 
on the issue since it is unclear at this time whether 
concurrent receipt will become law and what form the benefit 
will take. If the program is ultimately authorized, the 
Department will be required to fund the benefit within existing 
resources or request supplemental appropriations.

Appropriations, 2003.................................... $26,855,017,000
Budget estimate, 2004...................................  37,386,380,000
Committee recommendation................................  28,282,764,000

    The Committee recommends an appropriation of 
$28,282,764,000. This is $9,103,616,000 below the budget 
estimate. This reflects the transfer of Reserve Personnel, Army 
and National Guard Personnel, Army funding to individual 
appropriation accounts.

    The following table summarizes the budget estimate for this 
appropriation, the Committee recommendation, and the Committee 
recommended adjustments to the budget estimate:

                   Operation and Maintenance Overview

                 SOUTHWEST ASIA CONTINGENCY OPERATIONS

    The fiscal year 2004 budget estimate included funds for a 
number of ongoing contingencies, including operations in 
Southwest Asia, Bosnia, and Kosovo. Southwest Asia 
contingencies include Operations Northern Watch (enforcement of 
the no-fly zone above the 36th parallel in Iraq), Southern 
Watch (actions to counter potential aggression by Iraq and 
enforcement of the no-fly zone below the 32nd parallel in 
Iraq), and Desert Spring (ground operations, training and 
maintenance in Kuwait and Saudi Arabia).
    At the start of Operation Iraqi Freedom, the Department of 
Defense officially ended Operations Northern Watch, Southern 
Watch, and Desert Spring. Accordingly, the funds for these 
concluded operations are no longer required for the purposes 
requested. The Committee recommends a reduction of 
$1,375,020,000 to the budget estimate, distributed as follows:

               WORKING CAPITAL FUND EXCESS CASH BALANCES

    The Committee has identified excess cash balances in the 
Defense Working Capital Funds, significantly more than the 
requirement to have between 7 to 10 days cash on hand. The 
Committee recommends a reduction of $313,500,000 to the budget 
estimate, distributed as follows:

                          UNOBLIGATED BALANCES

    The Committee has identified significant and persistent 
under obligation of funds available in the operation and 
maintenance accounts. Working with the General Accounting 
Office, the Committee found that during the 5-year period 
fiscal year 1998 to fiscal year 2002, a total of more than 
$3,100,000,000 was left unobligated in the service's active 
operation and maintenance accounts. On average, this is almost 
$630,000,000 per fiscal year that is not used to fund important 
readiness, maintenance or training activities. Unobligated 
balances are also an issue in the military personnel accounts.
    The Committee recommends a reduction of $94,500,000 to the 
budget estimate, distributed as follows:

      Total adjustments...............................           -94,500
------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Committee wants to identify and implement a solution to 
this problem and end the practice of wasting available fiscal 
resources. To that goal, the Committee directs the Assistant 
Secretaries of the Military Departments (Financial Management & 
Comptroller) to jointly prepare a report to the Committee that 
details the issue of unobligated balances in military personnel 
and operation and maintenance accounts, and proposes a 
comprehensive course of action to reduce the amount of 
unobligated balances in those accounts by two-thirds. This 
report is to be submitted to the Committee before presentation 
of the fiscal year 2005 budget estimate.

                       CIVILIAN PAY OVERSTATEMENT

    The Committee has identified consistent overstatement in 
requirements for civilian pay salaries in the Army and Air 
Force. The Committee recommends a reduction of $25,550,000 to 
the budget estimate, distributed as follows:

    Realignment of Base Operations Support [BOS] and Facilities 
Sustainment, Restoration and Modernization [FSRM] Resources.--
The Committee notes that on October 1, 2002 the Army 
established the Installation Management Agency [IMA] to provide 
a corporate structure focused on installation management. 
According to the Army, IMA's mission is ``to provide equitable, 
effective and efficient management of Army installations 
worldwide'' as a key component of Army transformation. This 
represents a significant change in the way the Army resources, 
manages and operates its worldwide facilities. Starting in 
fiscal year 2004, IMA will be the single claimant and advocate 
for Army BOS and FSRM resources, a role that was previously 
performed by the Army's Major Commands.
    The Army acknowledges that years of underfunding 
installations has, in the Army's words, ``taken a toll.'' Among 
the Army's stated goals in establishing IMA are achieving 
regional efficiencies, providing consistent and equitable 
services, and eliminating the migration of installation support 
dollars to operations tempo or readiness requirements.
    To support the goal of eliminating the migration of 
resources budgeted for installations support, the Committee 
recommends realigning $6,799,556,000 of Army BOS and FSRM 
resources into a new budget activity, as detailed in the table 
above.
    Before this realignment, the Army's BOS and FSRM funding 
was distributed throughout the budget estimate in ten different 
lines. The Committee's recommended realignment of funding will 
allow for more careful management of installation resources and 
better oversight.
    Servicemembers Benefit Analysis Online (SMBAOnline).--The 
Committee is aware of the difficulty servicemembers experience 
in fully understanding and integrating the numerous benefits 
available to them and their families. The need to assimilate 
this comprehensive information is key in deployment 
preparations, making reenlistment decisions, performing 
financial planning and at many other critical career decision 
points. In addition, survivor's assistance personnel need 
accurate and timely information to assist the families of 
deceased service members promptly.
    The Committee is aware of a unique automated system that 
provides a personalized, integrated projection of the stream of 
government survivor benefits, and that includes future changes 
to the entitlement amounts through the family's lifetime. This 
system has been in operation for a number of years, and has 
been used very successfully in many emergencies, including 
after the 9/11 attacks.
    The Committee recommends $4,000,000 for a pilot program to 
implement and evaluate this unique benefits analysis system. 
The Committee directs the Assistant Secretary of Defense (Force 
Management Policy) to report on the implementation and benefits 
of this pilot program, and submit this report to the 
congressional defense committees before presentation of the 
fiscal year 2005 budget estimate.
    Tanana Flats Training Area Cleanup Program.--The Committee 
is aware that the Army has made significant progress in 
removing unauthorized structures from the Tanana Flats Training 
Area. The Committee endorses a program to designate several of 
the remaining structures to be used as emergency shelters. 
These shelters would be administered by the Bureau of Land 
Management consistent with their overall land management plan. 
The Committee recommends $500,000 to modify these designated 
structures in order to achieve compliance with Federal and 
State laws.
    DOD Biometrics Program.--The Committee urges the DOD 
Biometrics Program to offer assistance to and coordinate its 
efforts with the Department of Homeland Security and other 
Federal agencies. The Committee encourages the Department of 
Homeland Security to establish a biometrics office to 
coordinate their biometrics efforts and to interface with the 
DOD Biometrics Program. Further, the Committee directs that of 
the $7,003,000 requested in the budget for the DOD Biometrics 
Program, $500,000 shall be made available for project 
management services.
    Pohakuloa Training Area.--The Committee believes that 
adequate training areas are critical to the combat readiness of 
military forces. The purchase of up to 23,000 acres of land 
adjacent to the Pohakuloa Training Area will expand the 
available maneuver training space to meet the increased demand 
of the current and projected forces which use that facility. 
For this reason, the Committee urges the Department of the Army 
to purchase the land necessary for this additional maneuver 
space.
    Former Lowry Bombing and Gunnery Range.--The Committee is 
aware of the environmental cleanup required at the former Lowry 
Bombing and Gunnery Range, and recognizes the importance of 
completing the cleanup and containment to protect the health 
and safety of those who use the public reservoir, attend the 
public schools, and plan to reside in the area. The Committee 
encourages the Army to continue to recognize important private 
efforts being undertaken at the site, and urges both the Army 
and the Army Corps of Engineers to provide sufficient resources 
for the rapid cleanup of the site.

    Realignment of Base Operations Support [BOS] and Facilities 
Sustainment, Restoration and Modernization [FSRM] Resources.--
The Committee notes that in October, 2003 the Navy will 
establish Commander, Navy Installations Command [NIC] to 
provide a single responsible office and advocate for shore 
installation management. According to the Navy, NIC's mission 
is ``to provide unified procedures, standards and practices for 
efficient management of installation support.'' This represents 
a significant change in the way the Navy resources, manages and 
operates its worldwide facilities. Starting in fiscal year 
2004, NIC will be the single claimant and advocate for Navy BOS 
and FSRM resources, a role that was previously performed by the 
Navy's major claimants and commands.
    Among the Navy's stated goals in establishing NIC are 
achieving savings in personnel, facilities, and operational 
costs, eliminating redundant headquarters management functions 
and costs, and simplifying budgeting and funding processes. 
Implicit in these goals is eliminating the migration of 
installation support dollars to operations tempo or readiness 
requirements.
    To support the goal of eliminating the migration of 
resources budgeted for installations support, the Committee 
recommends realigning $4,615,879,000 of Navy BOS and FSRM 
resources into a new budget activity, as detailed in the table 
above.
    Before this realignment, the Navy's BOS and FSRM funding 
was distributed throughout the budget estimate in six different 
lines. The Committee's recommended realignment of funding will 
allow for more careful management of installation resources and 
better oversight.
    Naval Shipyard Apprentice Program.--The Committee has 
included $28,880,000 for the Naval Shipyard Apprentice Program, 
and directs that during fiscal year 2004 the Navy shall induct 
classes of no fewer than 125 apprentices at each of the naval 
shipyards. Further, the Committee directs the Department of the 
Navy to include the costs of the fiscal year 2005 class of 
apprentices in the fiscal year 2005 budget estimate.
    Northern Edge Realignment of Funds.--The Alaskan range 
complex and training environment provide DOD with a unique 
opportunity to conduct joint exercises in both high intensity 
conflict and homeland security scenarios. In recognition of 
these unique capabilities and to best support the diverse 
training required by the Unified Command Plan, the Committee 
directs that CJCS Exercise Northern Edge continue on an annual 
basis. Proponency for this exercise will alternate between 
USPACOM and USNORTHCOM on successive years, with planning and 
execution managed continuously by HQ ALCOM. On alternating 
years, USPACOM and USNORTHCOM will provide CJCS Exercise 
Strategic Lift funding support from their respective accounts.
    In support of these objectives and to execute Exercise 
Northern Edge 2004, the Committee recommends a realignment of 
funds from O&M, Army ($2,000,000) and O&M, Air Force ($800,000) 
to O&M, Navy ($2,800,000). After this realignment, a total of 
$4,700,000 is available in O&M, Navy to support Exercise 
Northern Edge. For fiscal year 2005 and subsequent years, the 
Committee directs the Secretary of Defense to provide funds in 
a similar fashion.
    Joint POW/MIA Accounting Command.--The Committee recommends 
a realignment of $33,036,000 from O&M, Army to O&M, Navy to 
support the Joint POW/MIA Accounting Command [JPAC]. This 
reflects and supports the October 1, 2003 consolidation of the 
Army's Central Identification Laboratory, Hawaii [CIL-HI] and 
Joint Task Force Full Accounting [JTF-FA] into a single, joint 
organization under the U.S. Pacific Command. The Committee 
fully supports the critical and honorable work of the Joint 
POW/MIA Accounting Command.
    Sullivan Brothers Museum.--The Committee recognizes the 
important contribution the Sullivan Brothers Museum and 
Research Center would make to military history and public 
education. The Committee requests the Secretary of the Navy 
extend all possible assistance to the Grout Museum in building 
the museum, collecting artifacts, and developing exhibits on 
the Sullivan Brothers and the World War II U.S. Navy.
    Security Standards for Life Raft Service and Maintenance.--
The Committee is concerned that the lack of adequate security 
practices during the service and maintenance of life rafts 
aboard Navy vessels could present security risks. Current 
procedures allow non-military personnel, without any security 
background clearances, to board a vessel several times when 
servicing life rafts. Additionally, the time required to 
remove, transport, service, and return the life rafts to a 
vessel could adversely impact a ship's readiness. The Committee 
directs the Secretary of the Navy to submit a report on the 
cost, force protection, and readiness issues associated with 
the service and maintenance of life rafts on Navy vessels. The 
report should include consideration of establishing a life raft 
change-out program, similar to those used by major commercial 
shipping lines. The report should also consider requiring life 
raft service and maintenance facilities to file security plans 
and conduct employee background checks. This report is to be 
submitted to the congressional defense committees before 
presentation of the fiscal year 2005 budget estimate.
    V-22 Osprey Tilt-Rotor Pilot Training.--The Committee is 
aware of the Department of Defense's recently completed and 
favorable review of the V-22 Osprey program. Preparing future 
V-22 pilots for the unique challenges of tilt-rotor flight is 
an essential component of a successful V-22 program. The 
Committee recognizes the importance of providing student pilots 
with realistic flight training to safely and effectively 
operate this new aircraft, to include undergraduate and 
advanced pilot training in the same type/model/series aircraft 
that pilots will operate in the fleet.
    The Committee understands that the Department of the Navy 
has completed a study addressing tilt-rotor pilot training 
requirements, and believes that implementing this study's 
findings will ensure the quality and safety of training, reduce 
overall costs, and provide satisfactory pilot throughput. To 
enhance savings, the program should be conducted at an existing 
unencumbered Naval training site in a central, strategic 
location with regard to operations tempo, un-encroached 
airfields, available outlying airfields, and sufficient family 
and personnel housing.
    The Committee directs the Secretary of the Navy to submit a 
tilt-rotor pilot training roadmap that implements the study's 
findings. This report is to be submitted to the congressional 
defense committees before presentation of the fiscal year 2005 
budget estimate.

    Transportation Working Capital Fund.--The Committee 
recommends a reduction of $200,000,000 to reduce cash balances 
in the Transportation Working Capital Fund [TWCF] that are 
greatly in excess of requirements. In addition, the Committee 
recommends a reduction of $110,006,000 to reflect overstated 
baselines in the Airlift Readiness Account, as documented by 
the Air Force's request to reprogram fiscal year 2003 resources 
out of this account after seeking significant supplemental 
operation and maintenance funding for Operation Iraqi Freedom.

    U.S. Special Operations Command.--The Committee understands 
and fully supports the increased operational tempo, broadened 
mission and readiness requirements placed on Special Operations 
Forces as they prosecute the Global War on Terrorism. The 
Committee recommends an additional $38,872,000 for priority 
requirements of the U.S. Special Operations Command.
    Employer Support of the Guard and Reserve.--The Committee 
recommends an additional $2,000,000 for the important work of 
the National Committee for Employer Support of the Guard and 
Reserve.
    Washington Semester American Indian Program.--The Committee 
notes with approval the participation of the Department of 
Defense in the Washington Semester American Indian Program 
[WINS], which serves the education and economic development 
needs of the American Indian/Alaska Native [AI/AN] community by 
providing opportunities for students to obtain academically 
supervised internships in Washington, DC. The WINS program 
advances the goals of Executive Order 13270, which directs that 
all Federal agencies take steps to enhance access to Federal 
opportunities and resources for AI/AN students. The Committee 
encourages the Department of Defense, as part of its 3-year 
plan pursuant to Executive Order 13270, to expand the number of 
internship positions made available for the program and to 
accommodate participants in a second-year internship program.
    Accident Prevention in DOD.--The Committee commends the 
Secretary of Defense's initiative to ``reduce the number of 
mishaps and accident rates by at least 50 percent in the next 2 
years.'' The Committee is pleased that the U.S. Army Forces 
Command's initiative to combat aggressive driving has achieved 
similar success in preventing vehicle accidents, and urges the 
Secretary of Defense to consider existing programs that have 
demonstrated success in reducing accident rates at one or more 
commands.
    Legacy Resources Management Program.--The Committee 
commends the Department of Defense for requesting funds to 
continue the Legacy Resources Management Program. From within 
these funds, the Committee encourages the Department to 
continue naval archaeology programs in the Lake Champlain

Budget estimate, 2004...................................      50,000,000

    The Committee recommends an appropriation of $10,000,000. 
This is $40,000,000 below the budget estimate.
    The Committee notes that funding for ongoing contingencies 
is now included in regular appropriation accounts. In addition, 
according to the Department's justification materials for this 
account, ``USSOCOM bears a substantial portion of the 
unanticipated costs of unforeseen contingency operations.'' The 
Department has requested significant increases to U.S. Special 
Operations Command funding, and the Committee finds that 
adequate to provide for unforeseen contingencies. Finally, 
requirements for substantial contingency funding should be 
addressed in a request for supplemental appropriations or 
through reprogramming procedures.

                       COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATIONS

    The Committee has displayed recommended adjustments in 
tables presented under each appropriation account.
    These adjustments reflect the following Committee actions: 
elimination of funds requested for programs which are lower 
priority, duplicative, or not supported by firm requirements in 
out year development or procurement appropriations; deletion of 
excess funds based on program delays or slow execution; 
addition of funds to reflect congressional priorities and to 
rectify shortfalls in the budget estimate; and implementation 
of recommendations reported in the Senate bill authorizing 
activities of the Department of Defense for fiscal year 2004.
    The Committee directs that the funding increases outlined 
in these tables shall be provided only for the specific 
purposes indicated in the table.

                          Procurement Overview

    Multiyear Procurement Authority.--The purpose of multiyear 
procurement authority is to allow Federal agencies to enter 
into a single contract for the purchase of more than one year's 
worth of supplies and services where such a contract will 
result in substantial savings over annual contracts. This 
authority is intended exclusively for programs demonstrating 
stability of cost, requirements, design and maturity of 
schedule. However, recent requests from the Department exploit 
the necessary limits placed upon this authority. It is evident 
that multiyear contract authority is now being used as a tool 
for controlling costs and as a means for securing funding for 
programs in future years. The Committee is concerned about this 
trend and directs the Secretary of Defense to submit a policy 
statement on the Department of Defense's use of multiyear 
contract authority to the congressional defense committees by 
January 15, 2004. The statement should explicitly describe the 
conditions that must be achieved for such a request and the 
methodology used for determining a program's compliance with 
the requirements set forth in 10 U.S.C. Sec. 2306b and DOD 
Financial Management Regulations.
    Combat Search Evader Locator Radio.--The Committee 
understands that the Air Force is in the process of requesting 
a change to the Joint Operational Requirements Document to add 
a terminal guidance capability as a Key Performance Parameter 
threshold requirement to the Combat Search Evader Locator 
[CSEL] radio. The Block 1 CSEL, which is currently in low-rate 
initial production, but does not include this terminal guidance 
capability, is being procured by the Air Force, Navy and the 
Army. The Committee is concerned that the services are 
currently procuring a radio that does not fully meet their 
needs and, therefore, recommends a reduction of $11,500,000 to 
the entire fiscal year 2004 CSEL procurement request and 
directs that the full-rate production decision on the Block 2 
variant of this radio not be approved until the terminal 
guidance capability can be achieved as a threshold requirement.

    UH-60 Blackhawk [MYP].--The Committee recommends an 
increase of $70,700,000 for the procurement of seven additional 
Blackhawk helicopters.
    Congressional support for the UH-60 Blackhawk program has 
allowed the Army to accelerate planned procurement and 
appreciate savings from obtaining aircraft at option prices. 
The Army estimates this savings to equal $28,100,000 over 3 
years. The Committee recommends a reduction of $20,000,000 
based on total program savings, and a reduction of $2,000,000 
for unjustified program administration costs.
    Longbow Apache Modifications.--The budget request included 
$55,400,000 for Other Support costs, an increase of $26,600,000 
above the fiscal year 2003 level. During the Committee's review 
of the request, the Army failed to adequately justify these 
costs. The Committee recommends a decrease of $10,000,000.
    UH-60 Modifications.--The budget request included 
$136,500,000 for the UH-60M recapitalization and upgrade 
program. The program must be restructured due to contractor 
cost growth, inaccurate earned value reporting, and changes to 
aircraft design. The Committee recommends a transfer of 
$100,000,000 requested for procurement to research and 
development to allow for the restructuring of the program.

    Stryker Fielding.--The Army continues to demonstrate the 
versatility of the Stryker Brigade Combat Teams [SBCT]. The 
Stryker Brigade takes advantage of a whole new strategic focus. 
This dynamic strategy is more than the exploitation of a 
transformed family of vehicles, it is an evolution in the way 
soldiers fight on the battlefield and provides the country with 
options previously unavailable. The modern, lethal Stryker 
Brigade will focus on increased operational and tactical 
mobility, enhanced situational awareness and understanding, and 
the ability to maximize joint warfighting unlike any other 
force. The Committee understands that the full SBCT family of 
vehicles procurement can be accelerated if the Army procures 
certain critical components that require longer production 
times with long lead funding in fiscal year 2004. These items 
are necessary to ensure that the Mobile Gun System [MGS] 
remains on schedule and is deployed beginning with the 3rd 
SBCT, rather than an alternative system. Therefore, the 
Committee has included an increase of $35,000,000 only to 
procure long lead items for Stryker Brigades. The Committee 
includes this money with the understanding that the Secretary 
of Defense supports, and will continue to support, this 
critical modernization program. The interim capability provided 
by the Stryker is more than a bridge to the Objective Force, it 
is a critical link and will validate the training, tactics, and 
procedures necessary to demonstrate and perfect the strategies 
which will transform today's Army into a modern, more lethal 
objective force. Additionally, the Committee has included an 
increase of $100,000,000 in Other Procurement, Army to assist 
in fielding the SBCTs.
    Current Force Modernization.--The Committee notes with 
great interest the recent negotiations undertaken by the 
Department of the Army to address the future of the heavy force 
industrial base. In fact, the Committee applauds the Army's 
recently negotiated memorandum of understanding which 
effectively guaranteed workshare for two major manufacturing 
bases well into the future, so that the Future Combat System 
decision, expected to be reached by 2008, will not fall victim 
to a lack of manufacturers from which to choose.
    In the interest of building on that strategy, and in 
modernizing the Army's current force, the Committee strongly 
encourages the Army to restructure its future budget 
submissions to Congress so that they contain adequate resources 
to fund the Current Force and provide the Counterattack Corps 
with the most modern weapon systems available.

    White Phosphorous Facility Upgrades.--The Committee 
recommends an increase of $24,339,000 for white phosphorous 
facility upgrades at Pine Bluff Arsenal. This funding 
alleviates the need to finance this modernization effort from 
within the Army Working Capital Fund and eliminates the 
requirement to increase rates at this ammunition facility to 
recoup these costs.
    Conventional Ammunition Demilitarization of Tactical 
Missiles.--The Committee recommends an increase of $6,000,000 
for Conventional Ammunition Demilitarization of Tactical 
Missiles to complete the organic Anniston Munitions Center 
missile recycling capabilities.

    FMTV.--The fiscal year 2004 President's budget request 
includes $309,810,000. This budget submission assumes a 12 
percent cost savings to the FMTV program as a result of the 
most recent competitive award. The Committee commends the Army 
acquisition strategy that sought to provide the most reliable, 
safe, cost effective tactical vehicle to replace the Army's 
aging fleet of trucks. Further, the Army's acquisition strategy 
was so successful that it facilitated a winning bid that 
achieves greater savings than anticipated when the fiscal year 
2004 budget submission was delivered to Congress. The Committee 
estimates this additional savings to be approximately 
$50,000,000 based on data provided to the Committee by the 
Army. Therefore, the Committee directs that these savings be 
applied only to purchases of additional FMTVs under the more 
competitive option pricing level.

    MH-60S [MYP].--The budget request included $130,377,197 for 
support costs. Of this total $92,509,794 is requested for 
peculiar training equipment. In response to the Committee's 
review of this request, the Navy was unable to explain fully 
the costs and activities funded within this amount. The 
Committee recommends a decrease of $20,000,000.
    MH-60R.--The budget request included $93,997,962 for 
support costs, an increase of $42,838,962 above funds available 
for fiscal year 2003. In justifying these costs to the 
Committee, the Navy was unable to tie requested funding to 
activities. The Committee recommends a decrease of $10,000,000.

    Trident D-5.--The President's budget requests $675,209,000 
for the Trident II program. This request includes $137,432,000 
for the assembly of 12 new missiles and $537,777,000 for a life 
extension program and support costs. To more accurately account 
for the costs of the program, last year the Committee 
transferred the funds requested for the life extension program 
and support costs to a newly created ``Trident II Mods'' line. 
To the Committee's disappointment the Navy did not follow this 
model for its fiscal year 2004 request. The Committee feels 
strongly about creating an appropriate level of visibility into 
the program and directs the Navy to request funding for the 
Trident II program in this fashion in the future. The Navy's 
request for program support costs and the life extension 
program represent a $121,347,000 increase over last year's 
request. Approximately half of this increase is for the 
redesign of guidance and electronics systems for missiles that 
will enter production in fiscal year 2008. The Navy has also 
requested $44,200,000 of research and development funding for 
new guidance and electronics systems. The Committee is 
concerned that the Navy's request is both premature and 
duplicative, and recommends a reduction of $75,000,000 to the 
budget request.
    Tactical Tomahawk.--The President's budget requests 
$50,000,000 to support an economic order quantity buy in 
conjunction with multiyear procurement authority. The Committee 
is pleased with the capabilities the Tactical Tomahawk missile 
offers but finds that it is premature to grant multiyear 
procurement authority to the program at this time. Thus, the 
Committee recommends that the $50,000,000 requested for the 
economic order quantity buy be used to increase the quantity of 
missiles purchased. The Committee encourages the Navy to 
request multiyear contracting authority for the program after 
unit costs are more stable and the missile has successfully 
passed all required testing.

    Virginia Class Submarine.--The President's budget requests 
funding and authority to enter into a multiyear procurement 
contract for seven Virginia [VA] Class submarines. In hopes of 
achieving cost savings for the VA Class, the Committee 
recommends granting multiyear procurement authority for five 
vessels, as it is premature to commit the Navy to procuring 
more than one submarine per year at this time.
    However, the Committee is disappointed by the Department's 
recent accounting for the costs of the program. The Department 
reports that the projected cost of the VA Class has increased 
by 24 percent. This figure assumes the Navy will achieve 7 
percent cost savings by shifting the current contractual 
arrangement to a multiyear. Program cost growth is properly 
measured against a fixed baseline. Therefore, methodologically, 
it is inappropriate for the Navy to subtract the potential 7 
percent savings from a proposed multiyear contract arrangement 
as a means of obscuring the actual 31 percent cost growth for 
the program. The Committee notes that by using anticipated 
future year savings as an offset for cost growth, the 
Department has clearly evaded the legal Nunn-McCurdy breach 
requirement for the VA Class program.
    Furthermore, the Navy has withheld financial information 
and has been unable to justify its request for $1,016,172,000 
in advance procurement for the program; thus, the Committee 
recommends a reduction of $59,000,000 to the request. An 
additional reduction of $130,000,000 is recommended as a result 
of the Committee's revision to the multiyear authority request. 
The Committee directs the Navy to appropriately account for and 
justify all program costs and requests for funding in the 
future.
    Cruiser Conversion.--Public Law 107-117 provided 
$75,000,000 for the purpose of initiating a program for 
conversion and modernization of 27 Ticonderoga class AEGIS 
Cruisers. Two years after the provision of these funds, the 
Navy has requested funding for conversion of the first ship. 
The Committee is encouraged by the Navy's request to begin the 
program, but believes the proposed acquisition and funding 
strategies are inadequate. The intent of the program is to 
increase the service life of the AEGIS Cruisers and to upgrade 
and modernize their combat capabilities; however, the Navy has 
chosen the CG 71, one of the newest and most modern Cruisers as 
the first ship of the program. CG 71 is already configured with 
three of the key capabilities Cruiser Conversion promises to 
offer, Area Air Defense Capability, Cooperative Engagement 
Capability and Smartship. Further, the cost estimates for the 
program are questionable as production rates differ regionally 
and the Navy has yet to determine where the conversion work 
will be done. Finally, unlike other ship conversion or ``life 
extension'' programs, the Navy has requested funding 2 years 
prior to the start of the ship's availability. The Committee is 
supportive of the Cruiser Conversion program, but until the 
Navy can demonstrate a sound acquisition and funding strategy, 
the Committee recommends delaying the Cruiser Conversion 
program.
    SSN ERO Program.--The Committee is concerned about the 
instability in the Navy's Submarine Refueling Overhaul program. 
The fiscal year 2003 budget requested advance procurement 
funding for two submarines that were planned for the subsequent 
year's program. However, apparently due to affordability 
issues, the Navy chose rather to decommission one ship and 
delay the refueling of the other. The Committee is sensitive to 
budgetary constraints, but is apprehensive about 
decommissioning a ship that could be refueled, upgraded and 
returned to operations for approximately $250,000,000. The 
Committee recommends restoring funding for the vessel planned 
for inactivation and adds an additional $202,000,000 for the 
refueling of SSN 707.
    SSBN ERO Funding.--In order to more accurately account for 
the funds requested and provided for submarine refueling 
overhauls, the Committee recommends separate funding for SSN 
and SSBN submarines. The Committee has created new budget lines 
for SSBN full funding and advance procurement and directs the 
Navy to follow this configuration in the future.
    LPD-17.--The Committee is disappointed by the Department's 
revised acquisition strategy for the LPD-17 program. The new 
strategy which calls for a 1-1-0-2-1-1-1 construction profile 
from fiscal year 2003-09 creates instability in the program and 
the industrial base. In order to facilitate the procurement of 
an LPD in fiscal year 2005, the Committee recommends 
$75,000,000 in advance procurement funding for materials for 
LPD 23. Further, the Committee directs the Secretary of the 
Navy and the Secretary of Defense to fully fund the remainder 
of LPD 23 in the fiscal year 2005 budget.
    Ship Insulating Materials.--The Committee is concerned that 
the Navy is considering an alternative material for ship 
insulation that may have safety issues. Therefore, the 
Committee directs the Secretary of the Navy to submit a report 
to the congressional defense committees by December 31, 2003, 
describing any findings of the Naval Environmental Health 
Center [NEHC] regarding the short and long term effects of 
exposure to this material compared to the materials currently 
in use.

    SATCOM Equipment Procurement.--The Committee is concerned 
about the rate of program growth in the procurement of various 
satellite communications equipment in fiscal year 2004, a 95 
percent increase over the amount requested in fiscal year 2003. 
This growth is particularly questionable given the historic 
usage of this line as a source for below threshold 
reprogrammings. The Committee recommends a reduction of 
$85,000,000 which is still a 31 percent increase over fiscal 
year 2003. While the Committee remains supportive of this 
program, it urges the Department of the Navy to better budget 
for these equipment purchases over the Future Year Defense 
Plan.
    Physical Security Equipment.--The Committee is concerned 
about reported changes in the way the Navy may execute programs 
under the Physical Security Equipment line in the Other 
Procurement, Navy account. These changes could delay the 
procurement and installation of this important equipment. The 
Committee, therefore, directs the Navy to submit a report to 
the congressional defense committees not later than 60 days 
after the enactment of this Act that details these changes and 
how, and by what organization, this equipment will be procured.

------------------------------------------------------------------------

    F/A-22.--The budget request included $3,727,093,000 for the 
procurement of 22 F/A-22 aircraft. The Committee recommends 
procurement of 22 F/A-22 Raptor aircraft, equal to the quantity 
sought in the budget request, and recommends a decrease of 
$161,000,000. The Committee is encouraged by the reduced vendor 
costs that enabled the program to procure an additional Lot 3 
aircraft. Stability in the vendor supply base and manufacturing 
efficiencies should help the Air Force and the contractor to 
control costs, and achieve additional savings during fiscal 
year 2004.
    CAMAA Initiative.--The Committee recognizes the potential 
military and commercial value of expanding the Civil Reserve 
Air Fleet with outsize cargo capacity, and encourages the Air 
Force to explore ways to accelerate the Commercial Application 
of Military Airlift Aircraft [CAMAA] initiative. Accordingly, 
the Committee directs the Secretary of the Air Force to provide 
a detailed CAMAA implementation plan to the Defense 
Subcommittee prior to June 1, 2004.
    C-17.--In response to congressional direction, the Air 
Force has restructured the procurement profile for the C-17. 
The Committee recommends a realignment of $98,000,000 from 
fiscal year 2004 [AP] to fiscal year 2004 MYP.
    B-2A.--During the Committee's review of the budget request, 
the Air Force was unable to correlate cost and activity for 
interim contractor support. The Committee recommends a decrease 
of $5,000,000.
    C-130E/H.--The Committee recommends an additional 
$3,100,000 only for procurement of the four APN-241 radars for 
the Nevada Air National Guard.
    KC-135.--The Committee recommends an additional $10,000,000 
for Global Air Traffic Management upgrades for KC-135R 
aircraft. The budget request included funding for engine 
replacements for KC-135E aircraft scheduled for retirement by 
fiscal year 2008. Following installation of any new engines, 
these aircraft would be available for less than 2 years. 
Therefore, the Committee recommends a decrease of $70,000,000.
    SENIOR SCOUT.--The Committee recommends an increase of 
$6,000,000 above the funds sought in the budget request for the 
equipment modernization of the SENIOR SCOUT program. Of these 
funds, $3,000,000 is only for the system's Radio Frequency/
Directional Finder Search and collection capability.
    Aircraft Beddown Plan.--After giving due study to the Air 
Force beddown plan for all aircraft, the Committee is not 
satisfied that recent operational commitments of the Guard and

    Air Operations Center Procurement.--The Air Force has 
requested funding to procure an Air Operations Center [AOC] for 
Ramstein Air Force Base in fiscal year 2004. Given the decision 
to close Prince Sultan Air Base, the Committee believes that it 
would be a better use of funds to simply move the equipment 
from this site to Ramstein AFB. The Committee has, therefore, 
reduced the budget request for Air Operations Centers by 
$11,585,000 and directs the Air Force to use the remaining 
$3,000,000 to move and install the Prince Sultan AOC at 
Ramstein AFB.
    Backscatter X-Ray Technology for Threat Detection.--The 
Committee is encouraged with the procurement of backscatter x-
ray technology for the purpose of force protection. The 
Committee encourages the Department of the Air Force to 
continue seeking the most effective level of biological, 
chemical, and radiological x-ray technology available, 
including the procurement of backscatter x-ray technology.

    Special Operations Rotary Wing Programs.--The President's 
budget requests $675,063,000 for the upgrade of rotary wing 
aircraft for Special Operations Command [SOCOM]. This request 
includes funds for procuring the first MH-60 conversion kits 
and associated upgrade equipment for the Service Life Extension 
Program [SLEP]. The Army's recent decision to delay the SLEP 
program results in a delay to the SOF program as well. 
Therefore, the Committee recommends a reduction of $153,000,000 
to the budget request.
    The budget request also includes $46,100,000 for MH-47 
spares, an increase of $43,721,000 over last year. While the 
Committee recognizes the number of requested aircraft has 
increased over last year, sufficient rationale for a 40 fold 
increase is absent. Applying the formula that SOCOM used last 
year in its justification materials and allowing for some 
growth, the Committee recommends a reduction of $38,100,000 for 
MH-47 spares.
    Advanced SEAL Delivery System.--The Committee believes that 
the request for $23,573,000 of advance procurement funding for 
the second ASDS is premature. The Committee is supportive of 
the program and is aware of the promising capabilities and 
benefits the system provides its operators; however, until 
operational test results, cost estimates, and acquisition 
strategies have been clearly articulated, the Committee finds 
that the resources requested for procurement would be more 
effectively used to further the ongoing research and 
development efforts.

Appropriations, 2003....................................    $100,000,000
Budget estimate, 2004...................................               0
Committee recommendation................................     700,000,000

    The Committee recommends an appropriation of $700,000,000. 
This is $700,000,000 above the budget estimate.
    The appropriation includes direction for each Reserve and 
National Guard component commander to submit to the 
congressional defense committees a detailed assessment of that 
component's modernization priorities.
    The Committee maintains that the Reserve and National Guard 
component commanders should exercise control of funds provided 
for their modernization in this account. The separate 
submission of these assessments, directly from the Reserve 
Component Commanders and the National Guard Directors to the 
committees will ensure that Reserve and National Guard 
priorities are addressed in the allocation of this 
appropriation.

                       COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATIONS

    The Committee has displayed recommended adjustments in 
tables presented under each appropriation account.
    These adjustments reflect the following Committee actions: 
elimination of funds requested for programs which are lower 
priority, duplicative, or not supported by firm requirements in 
out year development or procurement appropriations; deletion of 
excess funds based on program delays or slow execution; 
addition of funds to reflect congressional priorities and to 
rectify shortfalls in the budget estimate; and implementation 
of recommendations in the Senate bill authorizing activities of 
the Department of Defense for fiscal year 2004.
    The Committee directs that the funding increases outlined 
in these tables shall be provided only for the specific 
purposes indicated in the table.

    Future Combat System.--The fiscal year 2004 President's 
budget requests a total of $1,701,331,000 for Armored Systems 
Modernization.
    The Committee is concerned that a single program element 
containing such a large amount of money will not allow the 
oversight necessary to ensure the success of the Army's 
transformation to the Objective Force.
    The budget submission breaks out the Future Combat System 
into three distinct projects--Future Combat System, Networked 
Fires, and Objective Force Indirect Fires. These three projects 
are very extensive, incorporating an entire family of not only 
vehicles, but an intricate networking capability on both manned 
and unmanned platforms to provide truly transformational 
capabilities for the Army.
    The Committee directs that the Secretary of Defense plan, 
program and budget the Objective Force Indirect Fires project 
as its own separate and distinct program element number, within 
the Army Research, Development, Test and Evaluation account. 
The Committee further directs that this new program element 
also include funding of $353,242,000 from the Armored Systems 
Modernization [ASM] program element. The Committee directs that 
this program element, and all projects contained within this 
program element, shall be designated as congressional interest 
items.
    In addition, the Committee directs that the remaining 
$1,348,089,000 be made available within the Armored Systems 
Modernization [ASM] SDD program element and be subdivided into 
the following projects: Combat Systems; Maneuver Sustainment 
Systems; UAVs; UGVs; Unattended Sensors; and Unattended 
Munitions.
    The Committee directs that the justification materials for 
fiscal year 2005 be organized according to the project level 
breakout described above. Additionally, the Committee directs 
that these projects be designated as congressional special 
interest items in the fiscal year 2004 budget, and all 
subsequent budget submissions.
    Electric Personal Assistive Mobility Devices.--The 
Committee is encouraged by recent developments in the area of 
electric-drive mobility devices. These devices offer an 
alternative means of transportation at a reduced cost in 
operation and maintenance, while maintaining a positive impact 
on the environment. Additionally, these devices replace 
underutilized vehicles currently in the military inventory. In 
an effort to better understand the full benefits of these 
alternative methods of transport, the Committee directs the 
Army Tank and Automotive Command to study the impacts of these 
alternative mobility devices, to include the ability of these 
vehicles to replace underutilized vehicles on military 
installations, reductions in costs attributable to these 
replacement technologies, as well as the impact on motor pool 
maintenance.
    Future Tactical Truck System.-- The fiscal year 2004 
President's budget includes $6,700,000 for the Future Tactical 
Truck System and the Maneuver Sustainment Vehicle program. 
However, this program has no Operational Requirements Document, 
and has an unrealistic funding profile, with no real transition 
plan to procurement. The Committee recommends a reduction in 
the program of $6,700,000 and further recommends that the Army 
continue to pursue a tactical truck in the future that takes 
advantage of the many advances in the automotive industry.
    Unmanned Aerial Vehicles.--The Army's UAV program finds 
itself at a critical point. The interim and objective forces 
both rely on UAV capabilities to augment their warfighting 
capabilities. UAVs and, more importantly the payloads they 
carry, will truly contribute to the successful transformation 
to the Army's Objective Force. Any efforts that impede or 
hinder the Army's UAV program will also impede or hinder 
transformation. The Committee has been made aware that the Army 
plans to transfer UAV advocacy to the Army aviation 
directorate. This is a change from the current structure which 
places the Army's military intelligence command at the head of 
the program. The Committee is encouraged by the Army's progress 
in the UAV program, and wants to make sure that moving the 
advocacy from those interested in payloads and missions to 
those more interested in aerodynamic capabilities remains in 
the best interest of the warfighter. The Committee is further 
concerned that as the pressures continue to build on Army 
aviation, the UAV program will find itself paying the bills. 
Therefore, the Committee directs the Department of the Army to 
report back to the congressional defense committees on the 
transition plan as well as the long-term UAV roadmap, no later 
than January 30, 2004.
    Project HomeLink.--The Committee notes that there is a lack 
of communications available to family members of active duty 
military personnel who are deployed out of the United States. 
With many of our servicemen and servicewomen overseas, one of 
the quickest means for these members of the armed services to 
communicate with their families is through e-mail. E-mail 
communications have proven to be an asset to the general morale 
and well being of deployed military members. These 
communications provide piece of mind not only to the families 
left behind, but equally as important, to the soldiers, 
sailors, airmen and marines who are doing their jobs so far 
from home. The Committee encourages the Department of the Army 
to initiate a program known as Project HomeLink, a pilot 
program for the personnel at Fort Stewart, Georgia. The program 
should be directed towards improving the morale and welfare of 
deployed military personnel by providing a portable and easy to 
use e-mail system to the family members of those on active 
duty.
    AH-64D Longbow Apache.--The Committee notes that the Army 
currently plans to end production of the Apache Longbow in 
fiscal year 2006. The Army has stated that the Apache will be 
the helicopter that supports the Objective Force and will fight 
alongside the Comanche.
    The Committee encourages the Army to put together a 
modernization plan which will best leverage current technology 
insertion programs and technology initiatives. The Army needs 
to create a comprehensive integration plan to ensure a 
successful Apache transition to the Objective Force. Further, 
the goal of this transition strategy should address the option 
of placing all Apache modernization programs under a single 
manager.
    Alternative to Mixed Systems Research.--The Committee is 
concerned about the direction of the Alternative to Mixed 
Systems Research effort. The Committee directs the Department 
of the Army to submit a report by January 30, 2004 on its plan 
for meeting the program's objectives.
    Platoon Early Warning Device [PEWD-II].--The PEWD-II is the 
U.S. Army's standard tactical physical security sensor system 
that provides Army commanders with an accurate real-time view 
of enemy movement within sectors of interest. It is the 
Committee's understanding that the PEWD-II has successfully 
completed all contractor qualification testing and is scheduled 
for an initial production decision later this year. The 
Committee encourages the Army to give this program all due 
consideration for procurement.
    Mine Clearing Technology.--The Committee understands the 
commercial-off-the-shelf [COTS] SCANJACK Mine Clearing System 
has been used extensively in the Balkans. The Committee 
encourages the Army's Night Vision and Advanced Technology 
program office to evaluate the SCANJACK system to determine if 
it is suitable for the Army's requirement for an area mine 
clearance system.
    Propulsion System for the Future Combat System.--The 
Committee is concerned that the U.S. Army ensure maximum 
technical flexibility and competition as it evaluates 
propulsion system solutions for the Future Combat System. The 
Committee expects the Army to base its assessment on total 
system performance and objective criteria when competing all 
Requests for Proposals related to propulsion. The Committee 
further expects this competition to maximize the Army's stated 
objectives for volume, weight and maintainability.

    Use of Research and Development Funding for Shipbuilding.--
The Committee is aware that the Department of the Navy plans to 
fund the purchase of ships in fiscal year 2005 within the 
Research and Development, Navy account. These ships--the first 
in their class--the DD(X) next-generation destroyer and the 
Littoral Combat Ship [LCS] are currently planned to be procured 
with research and development dollars with the second ship in 
each class to be procured with Shipbuilding and Conversion, 
Navy [SCN] funds in fiscal year 2006.
    The Committee understands that there are seeming advantages 
to this approach--reducing prior year shipbuilding costs and 
providing these programs with the additional flexibility that 
is inherent in research and development funding. The Committee 
is concerned, however, that the Department will not reap the 
benefits it seeks. Central to the argument that supports 
building the first ship in a class with research and 
development funding is the necessity to learn lessons from the 
research, development and testing being done. If the Navy 
plans, as it currently does, to fund the second ship in each of 
these classes in fiscal year 2006 in SCN before actual 
construction even begins on the research and development-funded 
ships, the distinction between funding in research and 
development and SCN only becomes one of full-funding.
    Therefore, the Committee directs that if these ships--the 
DD(X) and LCS--are funded in research and development, all 
research and development acquisition rules will apply, 
including technology readiness reviews, milestone decisions, 
and test and evaluation before these ships may enter 
Shipbuilding and Conversion, Navy for procurement.
    If the Navy chooses not to follow the acquisition policies 
required of research and development programs before they enter 
procurement, funding for these first ships in their class shall 
be requested in Shipbuilding and Conversion, Navy, as has been 
the tradition.
    Withholding of Research and Development Funding.--The 
Committee has been informed by the General Accounting Office 
that the Navy has been withholding a percentage of funds from 
its research and development programs to be reallocated by the 
service. The Committee is concerned that this practice 
disguises the actual costs of Navy programs. The Committee 
bases its funding recommendations on the official budget 
request. If 1 to 2 percent of the funding requested for these 
programs is instead being withheld and pooled to be used on 
others, the Committee is not receiving accurate information on 
these programs. This procedure undermines the work of the 
Congress.
    Therefore, the Committee directs the Comptroller General to 
submit a report to the congressional defense committees no 
later than 30 days after the date of enactment that details, by 
fiscal year, from what programs these withholds were made and 
to which programs this funding was applied. The Committee 
further directs that the Comptroller General conduct the same 
review of and report on the research and development accounts 
for the Air Force, Army, and for Research and Development, 
Defense-Wide. This report shall be submitted no later than 
March 1, 2004.
    Open Architecture Upgrades for Vertical Launch Systems.--
The Committee believes that the Mk 41 Vertical Launch System 
will remain an important part of the Navy's warfighting 
capability. To this end, the Committee encourages the Navy to 
incorporate this system in its open architecture plans. Such 
efforts should ensure compatibility and Mk 41 availability for 
either forward-fit or back-fit into such open architecture 
systems.
    Composite Tissue Transplant Program.--The Committee 
applauds the progress made to date by the Navy Bureau of 
Medicine on the Composite Tissue Transplant Program, but 
recognizes the need to extend this work to human clinical 
trials. The Committee is aware of the extensive capabilities of 
Jewish Hospital of Louisville and the University of Louisville 
in transplantation and their unparalleled leadership in this 
area. The Committee requests that the Navy work cooperatively 
with them to take this research to the clinical trials stage.
    Joint Simulation System.--The Committee is concerned that 
the Department of Defense has planned to establish a software 
support facility at the Joint Warfighting Center at Joint 
Forces Command to maintain the Joint Simulation System [JSIMS] 
before an Analysis of Alternatives [AoA] has been completed to 
determine what approach is best for simulated joint training. 
The Committee recommends a reduction to this program of 
$4,000,000, and directs that the program not be moved from its 
current location until the AoA is complete and the 
congressional defense committees receive a report detailing why 
the preferred alternative was chosen.
    Littoral Combat Ship.--The Committee is supportive of the 
Navy's Littoral Combat Ship [LCS] program, but is concerned 
that the Navy has underestimated the technological challenges 
the development of this ship may face. While considerable 
effort has been made and careful thought has been taken 
regarding plans for the sea frame, the Committee remains 
unconvinced that similar efforts have been taken regarding the 
ship's mission modules. Unfortunately, of the $158,071,000 the 
Department of Navy requested for LCS research and development, 
the Department only requested $41,000,000 for sea frame-related 
mission module activities. The Committee, therefore, has 
earmarked $76,000,000 of the request for LCS and directs the 
Navy to establish a fully-funded mission module research and 
development program for the Flight 0 LCS that extends beyond 
the patchworked mine warfare plan.
    FORCEnet.--The President's fiscal year 2004 budget request 
includes $14,700,000 for the second year of the Navy's FORCEnet 
enterprise. The Committee is supportive of the goals of this 
integration program, but is concerned that no requirements have 
been approved or implemented and that there is duplication of 
effort, especially in the areas of experimentation and 
demonstrations. The Committee directs that the FORCEnet program 
establish these requirements, test them from within the Navy 
Warfighting Experiments and Demonstrations line (PE0603758N), 
and release the approved requirements changes to those affected 
Navy and Marine Corps programs as quickly as possible in fiscal 
year 2004. To this end, the Committee recommends that 
$3,400,000 of FORCEnet funding be transferred to the Navy 
Warfighting Experiments and Demonstrations line and that all 
activities in that program element be embedded with FORCEnet 
concepts.
    Military Dental Research.--Oral health problems can have a 
surprisingly significant impact on operational readiness. 
Military dental research focuses on reducing dental emergencies 
which are due to disease or trauma. This research has resulted 
in improved battle site prevention and treatment and has 
developed improved diagnostic and treatment methods. In 2000, 
the Military Dental Research Review panel confirmed the need 
for this program, but also expressed concern over the lack of a 
steady funding stream for this research. The Committee agrees 
that the Department of Defense has failed to adequately budget 
for military dental research and directs the Department to 
sufficiently fund this program in the future.
    Joint Strike Fighter Interchangeable Engine.--The Committee 
is dismayed that the Joint Strike Fighter program office was 
permitted to take a reduction for inflation savings 
disproportionately against the F136 Interchangeable Engine. 
This cut resulted in a $56,000,000 reduction to this engine's 
research and development effort in fiscal year 2004.
    The Committee has been supportive of this engine 
development program for several years and has, in fact, 
increased funding to accelerate this engine's development. This 
cut to the program flies in the face of longstanding Committee 
support.
    The Committee, therefore, recommends a total cut of 
$56,000,000 to the Joint Strike Fighter program which is to be 
taken equally from the Navy and the Air Force Joint Strike 
Fighter programs with the exception of the F136 engine program. 
The Committee also recommends that the fiscal year 2004 cut to 
the F136 Interchangeable Engine be restored to the original 
program with an appropriate adjustment for the inflation cut.
    Finally, the Committee has added $20,000,000 to this 
program only for risk reduction to the F136 Interchangeable 
Engine program.
    Geostationary Imaging FTS [GIFTS].--The Committee is 
supportive of the Geostationary Imaging FTS [GIFTS] program and 
instructs the Department of the Navy to honor its commitment to 
this important program.
    FireScout Unmanned Aerial Vehicle.--The Committee has 
included an additional $46,400,000 for the FireScout unmanned 
aerial vehicle program. The Committee directs that the eight 
FireScouts procured be available for Naval concept of 
operations studies (to include those for the Littoral Combat 
Ship) and that, from remaining funds, the Navy shall develop 
and implement a complete operational testing plan for this 
system.
    Shared Navy and Coast Guard UAV Requirements.--The United 
States Coast Guard could greatly benefit from the lessons that 
the Navy has learned about the use of unmanned aerial vehicles 
and their continued development. The Committee directs the 
Secretary of the Navy, in conjunction with the Commandant of 
the United States Coast Guard, to submit a report, no later 
than April 1, 2004, to the Committees on Appropriations, which 
details the common requirements each have and which recommends 
technologies and/or platforms which would meet these 
requirement currently and in the future.

    National Aerospace Initiative.--The President's fiscal year 
2004 budget request creates an Aerospace Initiative within 
several different research and development accounts throughout 
the budget submission. The Committee has several concerns with 
this approach. First, the overall strategy of the program 
suffers from poor program definition. Second, the information 
contained within each of the justification book materials is 
less than adequate. While these materials flag specific 
interest items within specific program element lines as being 
part of the National Aerospace Initiative, there is no concise, 
unified submission that links all these projects together for a 
clearly defined, clearly stated goal that addresses the overall 
initiative.
    The Committee is very concerned that this initiative places 
undue burdens on the funding plans of the affected services' 
basic science and technology programs, and essentially amounts 
to a series of unfunded mandates, with particular respect to 
the Army and the Air Force. This approach has the potential to 
create devastating effects on the future of service driven 
science and technology.
    While the Committee lauds the Secretary of Defense's 
efforts to streamline research and development in key areas of 
hypersonics, there is no overarching tie which makes clear why 
each project was chosen, or how it is linked with the others.
    Therefore, the Committee recommends a reduction to the 
National Aerospace Initiative [NAI] of $30,000,000 from 
projects related to hypersonics, and a reduction of $20,000,000 
from projects related to space access. This action represents 
an increase of 26 percent over the fiscal year 2003 
appropriated level for hypersonics programs and an increase of 
8 percent over the fiscal year 2003 appropriated level for 
projects relating to space access.
    In addition, the Committee is particularly concerned that 
two of the NAI's central projects, projects the Defense 
Department calls ``critical path demonstrations'', are new 
starts in 2004 and unfunded in the Future Year Defense Plan. 
Few details were provided on these projects and the Department 
of Defense has failed to make the case that these technologies 
have a clearly defined, executable path forward. It appears 
that the Department is also unconvinced of the merits of this 
program and has decided against funding it in the out-years. 
Therefore, the Committee recommends a reduction of $42,298,000 
from PE 0603211F, project 5099 and $38,885,000 from PE 
0603216F, project 3035.
    Electronic Warfare Transition Plan.--The Committee notes 
that cross-service electronic attack and tactical jamming 
capabilities are being updated and modernized. The Navy's 
Improved Capabilities III [ICAP-III] electronic warfare 
development has thus far been successful and is planned to 
transition to the Navy's follow-on jamming platform.
    The Committee notes that the United States Air Force is 
requesting funds for the development of an electronic attack 
program utilizing the B-52 as an electronic attack platform and 
is concerned that the program outlined to date does not 
leverage receiver investments made by other services and may be 
inconsistent with the intentions of the congressionally-
mandated Advanced Electronic Attack Analysis of Alternative.
    The Committee encourages the Air Force to work with other 
services to capitalize on investments already made in the area 
of electronic attack. That cooperation should ensure that the 
technologies developed and fielded are consistent with those of 
the other services and work in conjunction with those systems. 
The Secretary of the Air Force shall submit to the 
congressional defense committees a report detailing the future 
path of electronic warfare and the means by which the Air Force 
will accomplish the stated goals of the Analysis of 
Alternatives. This report shall be due by no later than January 
30, 2004.
    GPS III.--The Committee notes that the fiscal year 2004 
President's budget did not include funding for the GPS III 
satellite program. This action will delay the launch of this 
critical capability until at least fiscal year 2012.
    GPS III represents a complete overhaul of the GPS 
architecture. This critical modernization program provides 
improved system performance in the areas of anti-jam, accuracy, 
system fidelity, improved signal and mission flexibility, as 
well as increased responsiveness of the system to civil and 
military customers.
    The Committee has great concern that the Air Force has 
continued to delay this program, in spite of the continued 
support of the Congress and the warfighter. The improved 
technology that GPS III brings to the military is impressive. 
It is difficult to understand why the Department of Defense 
continues to delay this program and drag their feet on making 
the necessary commitment to field this program as soon as 
technologically feasible. The Committee notes that the Air 
Force felt this program was necessary in its previous budget 
submissions to Congress, is planning to fund it in the fiscal 
year 2005 budget, but included no funding in fiscal year 2004. 
With sporadic budget plans like this, it is no mystery why 
critical space programs continue to be delayed.
    Therefore, the Committee directs the Secretary of the Air 
Force to report back to the congressional defense committees no 
later than January 30, 2004 with a detailed plan of options for 
fielding this critical program prior to fiscal year 2012.
    Advanced Wideband System (Transformational Communications 
Architecture).--The fiscal year 2004 President's budget 
requests $439,000,000 for the Advanced Wideband System [AWS], 
also known as the Transformational Communications Architecture. 
The Committee recommends a reduction of $90,000,000. AWS's 
stated goal is to remove communications as a constraint to the 
warfighter. The Committee supports this goal and that of the 
AWS to move communications into the next generation. However, 
the Committee is concerned that the Air Force assumes too much 
risk and is maintaining too aggressive of a schedule, without 
adequately providing for risk reduction.
    Space Based Radar.--The budget request includes 
$274,104,000 for the Space Based Radar program. The Committee 
notes that the Air Force has increased funding for this program 
by nearly 500 percent over last year's appropriated level. The 
Committee is concerned that this level of program growth is 
cause for concern. The General Accounting Office recently noted 
that ``key reports regarding the program's estimated cost, 
capabilities, concept of operations, and analysis of cost 
effective alternatives are pending.''
    Therefore, the Committee recommends a reduction in the 
program of $75,000,000. The Committee directs the Secretary of 
the Air Force to report back to the congressional defense 
committees on an updated and complete concept of operations, as 
well as a detailed analysis of alternatives. This report should 
also include an analysis of costs to field the entire 
constellation and shall be delivered no later than January 30, 
2004.

------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Defense University Research Instrumentation Program.--The 
Defense University Research Instrumentation Program [DURIP] 
supports the purchase of equipment that augments current 
university capabilities or develops new university capabilities 
to perform defense research. However, the DURIP includes a 
prohibition that does not allow funding for salaries. The 
Committee recognizes that due to the unique nature of military 
research projects, it is often difficult to find suitable 
commercial-off-the-shelf equipment that does not need to be 
modified by technicians. The Committee directs that the DURIP 
examine allowing technician salaries for the fabrication of the 
specific research instrumentation by the research institution 
receiving the DURIP.
    DARPA.--The budget justification materials provided for 
DARPA funding requests do not contain cost analysis, contract 
award and major performer information. The Committee finds this 
information an indispensable component of budget justification 
documentation and directs DARPA to incorporate this information 
into its future funding requests.
    Multiple Target Tracking Optical Sensor Array Technologies 
[MOST].--The Committee recommends $1,000,000 for the Missile 
Defense Agency to assess the MOST technology and report its 
conclusions to the Committee no later than February 1, 2004.
    Improved Materials for Optical Memories.--The Committee 
recommends that $4,200,000 be implemented as a Phase III SBIR 
based on MDA Phase II SBIR titled ``Improved Materials for 
Optical Memories.''
    Russian-American Observational Satellites.--The Committee 
is encouraged by the progress made toward obtaining a 
Government-to-Government Agreement for the RAMOS Program. The 
Committee encourages MDA to complete in a timely manner the 
Government-to-Government Agreement to allow for the two 
satellite launches in 2008. The Committee directs that the 
funds identified for the RAMOS Program in PE0603884C of the 
Department's budget request shall be used for the RAMOS Program 
only.
    Missile Testing.--The Committee continues to support the 
development of surrogate targets to represent a variety of 
threats. In many tests, however, this surrogate will be 
emulating an extended range scud missile. For these tests, the 
use of actual, low cost, extended range scud missiles will 
ensure realism and establish a true baseline of performance for 
both the interceptor and the surrogate. The Committee believes 
that it is vital that MDA prove the effectiveness of its 
systems against real threats wherever possible and therefore, 
directs that $15,000,000 of the funds provided for Ballistic 
Missile Defense Test and Targets be used to acquire extended 
range scud targets.
    Embedded National Tactical Receiver.--The Committee is 
aware of the great potential of the Embedded National Tactical 
Receiver (ENTR) and recommends the Department assure ENTR is 
Joint Tactical Radio System Software Communications 
Architecture complaint as soon as possible.

                     Defense Working Capital Funds

Appropriations, 2003....................................  $1,784,956,000
Budget estimate, 2004...................................   1,721,507,000
Committee recommendation................................   1,449,007,000

    The Committee recommends an appropriation of 
$1,449,007,000. This is $272,500,000 below the budget estimate.
    Unjustified Requests for Appropriations.--The Committee 
found a lack of satisfactory justification for much of the 
appropriation requested for the Defense Working Capital Funds. 
Justification materials were either inadequate, or in the case 
of the Air Force, did not exist. The Committee recommends a 
reduction of $272,500,000 to the budget estimate, distributed 
as follows:

      Total adjustments................................         -272,500

    This reduction is to be taken only as shown above. 
Specifically, this reduction is not to be taken against 
requested appropriations for Working Capital Fund, Army, 
Working Capital Fund, Navy, or Working Capital Fund, Defense 
Commissary Agency.
    Unutilized Plant Capacity.--Unutilized Plant Capacity [UPC] 
funding is required to compensate working capital fund 
activities for the unique overhead costs of maintaining 
industrial capacity that will be used only in the event of 
military mobilization. The Committee commends the Army for 
fully funding UPC this year, and directs the Secretary of the 
Army to use the UPC funding provided for the purpose described 
in the Army Working Capital Fund budget justification 
materials.
    Golden Dollar Coin.--The Committee urges the Secretary of 
Defense, in cooperation with the Director of the United States 
Mint, to ensure that the Golden Dollar coin is rapidly placed 
into circulation to the maximum extent feasible at all domestic 
military installations, including military commissaries, 
exchanges and clubs. The Committee directs the Director, 
Defense Commissary Agency, the Commander, Army and Air Force 
Exchange Service, the Commander, Navy Exchange Service Command, 
and the Director, Marine Corps Community Services to jointly 
prepare a complete report on the progress of these efforts. 
This report is to be submitted to the congressional defense 
committees before presentation of the fiscal year 2005 budget 
estimate.

                     National Defense Sealift Fund

Appropriations, 2003....................................    $942,629,000
Budget estimate, 2004...................................   1,062,762,000
Committee recommendation................................     344,148,000

    The Committee recommends an appropriation of $344,148,000. 
This is $718,614,000 below the budget estimate.
    The President's budget request included funding for the 
construction of two T-AKE class ships. The Committee notes that 
while the Congress has appropriated funds for four ships since 
the initiation of the program in fiscal year 2000, construction 
of the first vessel has yet to commence. Due to the significant 
construction delays the program is experiencing, the Committee 
recommends a reduction of $722,314,000 for the T-AKE request. 
The Committee recommends an increase of $3,700,000 to the 
budget request for the conversion of a former Naval vessel into 
a training ship for the Great Lakes Maritime Academy.

    The Committee recommends no appropriation. This is 
$675,000,000 below the budget estimate.

                                TITLE VI

               OTHER DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE APPROPRIATIONS

                         Defense Health Program

Appropriations, 2003.................................... $14,843,542,000
Budget estimate, 2004...................................  15,270,509,000
Committee recommendation................................  15,656,913,000

    The Committee recommends an appropriation of 
$15,656,913,000. This is $386,404,000 above the budget 
estimate.
    The Committee remains concerned that current reprogramming 
procedures within the Defense Health Program operation and 
maintenance account are not sufficient to prevent the migration 
of funds from the Military Treatment Facilities [MTFs] to pay 
for the increasing cost of contractor provided medical care. 
The impact of this financial migration has seriously degraded 
the ability of the MTFs, which have inherent cost advantages, 
to care for military personnel and their dependents. Therefore, 
the Committee recommends that not more than $7,420,972,000 may 
be spent on contractor provided medical benefits within 
TRICARE. Any increase in the amount required to fund the 
contractor provided care will require a prior approval 
reprogramming.
    TRICARE Medical Coverage for Reservists.--At the time of 
the Committee's mark up of the fiscal year 2004 defense bill, 
the Senate authorized making reservists and their families 
eligible for TRICARE health benefits on a fulltime basis, 
rather than only during mobilizations. The House recommended no 
similar benefit.
    The Committee supports the benefit, but is deferring action 
on the issue since it is unclear at this time whether the 
benefit will be authorized in law. If the program is ultimately 
authorized the Department will be required to fund the costs 
within existing resources or request supplemental 
appropriations.
    Cost Sharing for Medical Research Programs.--The Committee 
commends the Department for its management of the peer reviewed 
medical research and cancer research programs, but notes with 
concern the challenge of funding increases to these programs 
within the resources available for military spending. 
Therefore, the Committee directs the Assistant Secretary of 
Defense (Health Affairs), in consultation with the service 
Surgeons General and the Institute of Medicine, to investigate 
alternative funding sources, including private sector and non-
Federal contributions, that can best be used to leverage 
appropriated funds without biasing the peer review selection 
process. The Department should report their findings and 
recommendations when submitting their annual report on the 
status of the Peer Review Medical Research Program, due on 
March 1, 2004.

------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Peer Reviewed Medical Research Program.--The Committee has 
provided $50,000,000 for a Peer Reviewed Medical Research 
Program. The Committee directs the Secretary of Defense, in 
conjunction with the service Surgeons General, to select 
medical research projects of clear scientific merit and direct 
relevance to military health.
    Such projects could include: amyotrophic lateral sclerosis; 
alcoholism research; biology, education, screening, 
chemoprevention and treatment [BESCT] lung cancer research; 
blood-related cancer research; childhood asthma; chronic pain 
research; defense and veterans head injury program; diabetes 
research; electrical impedance scanning device; epilepsy 
research; geneware rapid vaccine development; interventional 
cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging technologies; medical 
error reduction research; muscle function research; Malaria 
vaccine initiative [SBRI]; molecular medicine; muscular 
dystrophy; neurofibromatosis; operating room of the future; 
osteoporosis and bone related disease research; Padget's 
disease; providence cancer research project; post traumatic 
stress disorders; social work research; tuberous sclerosis 
complex; and Volume Angio CAT [VAC] research.
    The Committee directs the Department to provide a report by 
March 1, 2004, on the status of this Peer Reviewed Medical 
Research Program.
    Clinical Coupler Integration.--The Committee commends the 
Department for its development of the Composite Health Care 
System II [CHCSII], the electronic medical record that will 
improve the quality of care and documentation for 
sevicemembers. In particular, the Committee directs the 
Department to continue integrating clinical decision support 
tools that use coupling technology into CHCSII, paying 
particular attention to high-volume, high cost diseases such as 
those identified by the Institute of Medicine. The Committee 
has recommended $6,000,000 for this effort.
    Myeloproliferative Disorders Research.--The Committee 
recommends $5,000,000 for peer review research into chronic 
myeloproliferative disorders. These disorders of the bone 
marrow are malignant diseases that offer great research promise 
with respect to the behavior of human blood cells. The 
Committee directs that the Secretary of Defense, in conjunction 
with the service Surgeons General, to select clinical and basic 
medical research projects of clear scientific merit and of 
direct relevance to military health.
    Anti-Radiation Drug Development.--The Committee recommends 
$5,000,000 for the Armed Forces Radiobiology Research Institute 
[AFRRI] to continue development and research trials of the 
radioprotectant drug 5-androstenediol.
    Integrated Healing Practices for Veterans [VET-HEAL].--The 
Committee recommends $2,000,000 for conducting the VET-HEAL 
program to develop and evaluate integrated healing care as an 
adjunct to conventional biomedical methods. The integrated 
healing care research will address health issues that present 
challenges to conventional medicine, including post-traumatic 
stress syndrome and other conditions exhibited by troops 
returning from Iraq and Afghanistan, as well as hospice care. 
To best address the needs of military members and veterans 
exhibiting these conditions, the research must have access to 
the full continuum of care across the Department of Defense and 
the Department of Veterans Affairs. Therefore, the Committee 
directs the Department of Defense to work closely with the 
Department of Veterans Affairs for the operation of this 
program that is being conducted under the management of the 
Unformed Services University of Health Sciences.
    Alcoholism Research.--The Committee remains concerned about 
excessive alcohol consumption among military members. 
Alcoholism is a significant factor in suicide and accidental 
deaths, as well as lost productivity and health problems. 
Research holds the promise of developing more effective 
prevention programs and new and better methods for the 
treatment of alcoholism. For example, the development of 
effective drug therapies for alcoholism requires an improved 
understanding of how alcohol changes brain function to produce 
craving, loss of control, tolerance, and the alcohol withdrawal 
syndrome.

                      ADDITIONAL ITEMS OF INTEREST

    Unobligated Balances.--A General Accounting Office review 
of the Defense Health Program's financial records indicates 
that significant funds are not being obligated in a timely 
manner, resulting in the expiration of those funds and their 
eventual return to the Treasury. The Committee is concerned 
about the financial management practices, procedures, and 
systems that contribute to the expiration of appropriated 
funds, especially in light of the flexibility afforded the 
program with the 2 percent carryover provision for operation 
and maintenance funds. The Committee directs the Assistant 
Secretary of Defense (Health Affairs) to examine the financial 
management practices and procedures that have contributed to 
this problem and to provide a report to the Defense 
Appropriations Committees of the House and Senate, outlining 
the causes and corrective actions required to prevent 
unobligated funds from expiring.
    HealtheForces/Outcomes Management Program.--The Committee 
is encouraged by the distinguished accomplishments of the 
Walter Reed Army Medical Center's HealtheForces/Outcomes 
Management Program. In May 2003, the program set a national 
precedent by earning six of the Joint Commission on 
Accreditation of Healthcare Organizations' [JCAHO] new Disease-
Specific Care certifications. This independent, national level 
review of the program coupled with its rapid deployment 
nationwide speaks to the merits of HealtheForces and its 
contribution to the population's health management. The 
Committee commends the Department for including $8,700,000 in 
the fiscal year 2004 budget to support HealtheForces/Outcomes 
Management and encourages the Department to include it in the 
Defense Health Program's Future Year Defense Program.
    Nurse Corps Officers-to-Nurse Faculty.--The Committee 
recognizes that the current nursing shortage is having an 
effect on the quality and effectiveness of the Nation's 
healthcare delivery system. The Committee encourages the 
creation of a Nurse Officers-to-Nurse Faculty Program, modeled 
after the successful Troops to Teachers Program at the 
Department of Defense, which will place qualified nurse 
military veterans into nurse faculty positions in accredited 
schools of nursing.
    Advanced Virtual Combat Trauma Training System.--The 
Committee recognizes the importance of advanced virtual combat 
trauma training. This system makes critical combat trauma 
skills training available for health professionals, medics and 
soldiers alike for operational readiness, and hospital 
training.
    Health Professions Loan Repayment Program.--The Committee 
strongly encourages the Department to fully explore and develop 
mechanisms for loan repayment that are separate from the Health 
Professions Scholarship and the Financial Assistance Programs. 
Nurses, pharmacists, dentists, optometrists, and psychologists 
have all indicated that greater targeting of funds for loan 
repayment would enhance recruitment as well as retention 
efforts.
    Post-Doctoral Education.--The Committee continues to be 
supportive of post-doctoral training in psychology. The 
Department of Defense is encouraged to consolidate post-
doctoral training efforts for psychologists in those military 
medical centers where independent departments of psychology 
exist and to examine lengthening the training to a 2-year 
program.
    Graduate Professional Education.--The Committee continues 
its strong support of equitable distribution of Department of 
Defense funds for graduate professional education to all health 
professions, including nursing.
    Nurse Accession Bonus.--The Committee reiterates its 
concern that the Department has yet to increase the accession 
bonuses for nurses in the services, which currently are the 
lowest of any of the professions at $5,000. In order to attract 
the best and the brightest, this amount should be increased, 
and the Committee strongly urges the Department to remedy this 
inequity.
    Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetists.--The Committee 
reiterates its strong support of the current scope of practice 
of military Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetists [CRNAs]. 
The Committee is aware that the Department and service 
instructions allow CRNAs the privilege of practicing as 
licensed independent providers of anesthesia care, legally 
responsible for care they render but practicing with 
professional oversight.
    Pediatric Emergency Medical Services.--The Committee 
expresses its strong support for pediatric-specific EMS 
training and equipment related to hospital preparedness. The 
Committee directs the Secretary of Defense to ensure that 
Military Treatment Facilities comply.
    Behavioral Research in the Military Service Laboratories.--
The Committee recognizes that psychological scientists address 
a broad range of important issues and problems vital to our 
national security through the military research laboratories. 
Given the increasingly complex demands on our military 
personnel, psychological research on leadership, decision-
making under stress, cognitive readiness, training, and human-
technology interactions have become even more mission-critical, 
and the Committee strongly encourages the service laboratories 
to reverse cuts made to their behavioral research programs.
    Optometry Retention Bonus.--The Committee encourages the 
Secretary to fund the $6,000 per year retention bonus 
authorized in 37 U.S.C. 302a for Optometrists.
    Bone Physiology Research.--The Committee recommends that 
the DOD support research which will lead to improved bone 
health and enhance military readiness by reducing the incidence 
of stress fractures during physically intensive duty. Findings 
that will emanate from DOD research efforts will not only 
assist our active duty forces, but also will help prevent, 
diagnose and treat those with debilitating bone disease.
    Use of Behavioral Health Professionals.--The Committee is 
pleased that Tripler Army Medical Center is taking the lead in 
the use of behavioral health professionals to treat chronic 
pain.
    Tobacco Use Cessation.--Tobacco use costs the Defense 
Department hundreds of millions of dollars every year in 
medical cost and lost productivity. While the Department has 
established ambitious goals to decrease use of tobacco 
products, it has not provided adequate resources to meet these 
goals. The Committee is disappointed that the Department has 
not yet incorporated smoking cessation in TRICARE Prime 
benefits even though such preventative care saves money and has 
not even aggressively pursued suggested pilot programs. The 
Committee urges the Department to expedite availability of 
tobacco use prevention and cessation programs to all personnel.
    Lung Cancer Screening.--The Committee urges the Secretary 
of Defense, in consultation with the Secretary of Veterans 
Affairs, to begin a multi-institutional lung cancer screening 
program with centralized imaging review incorporating state of 
the art image processing and integration of computer assisted 
diagnostic tools.

            Chemical Agents and Munitions Destruction, Army

Appropriations, 2003....................................  $1,490,199,000
Budget estimate, 2004...................................   1,650,076,000
Committee recommendation................................   1,620,076,000

    The Committee recommends an appropriation of 
$1,620,076,000. This is $30,000,000 below the budget estimate.
    Program Savings.--During fiscal year 2003 destruction 
operations were halted or curtailed at two locations resulting 
in operation and maintenance savings to the chemical 
demilitarization program. The Committee recommends a reduction 
of $10,000,000 based on this savings.
    Speedy Neutralization.--The decision by the Department to 
accelerate destruction operations at two sites has resulted in 
an estimated cost avoidance of over $300,000,000. The Committee 
recommends a reduction of $20,000,000 based on this savings.

------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Northern Command.--The Committee does not support the 
Department of Defense's new policy to centralize the authority 
of the military's counter-drug programs at Northern Command. 
The Committee recognizes that the ongoing role of the regional 
commands in our counterdrug program is essential to its 
success. The regional commands have dedicated individuals and 
resources closely monitoring these issues and in their specific 
areas of responsibility [AORs]. These individuals also play an 
integral part in the military operations in those AORs. If 
these activities were transferred to Northern Command, the 
Nation would lose precious time and information due to the need 
to train new individuals to learn the tasks and create 
relationships with the AORs that others have mastered. The 
Committee believes the Nation's war on drugs is better served 
from these regional posts and has redirected funds back to 
them.
    National Guard.--The Committee has provided an additional 
$25,000,000 for the National Guard for its counter-drug 
mission. The Department of Defense's [DOD] budget request does 
not provide adequate resources for the Guard to execute its 
duties. The Committee believes the Guard is an integral part of 
the Nation's war on drugs.
    The Committee also understands that DOD has decided to 
reduce the Guard's counter-drug activities. DOD has transferred 
some of the Guard's counter-drug tasks to domestic agencies. 
The Committee has not received adequate information that states 
that these agencies have the funds, training, equipment, and 
personnel to effectively execute the mission. Without these 
capabilities, the Administration may eventually have to return 
these duties back to the Guard. Therefore, until the 
Administration provides the necessary resources for these 
domestic agencies to execute these activities, the Committee 
directs DOD to again review this policy change and to continue 
to invest DOD's ample resources in the war on drugs.

    The Committee recommends an appropriation of $8,000,000. 
This is equal to the budget estimate.
    The National Security Education Program [NSEP], created by 
Congress in 1991, is the Nation's only program that funds U.S. 
college and university students to study the language and 
culture of countries critical to national security. In 
exchange, these undergraduate and graduate students make a 
commitment to seek work in the Federal Government.
    Because of NSEP's demonstrated, longstanding success, and 
the increasingly evident and critical shortages in foreign 
language proficiency in the Department of Defense, the 
Committee does not support the proposed transfer of the program 
to the Department of Education, or to the Central Intelligence 
Agency. The Committee applauds DOD's willingness and 
preparation to continue its management of the program.
    In addition, the Committee is aware of concerns about the 
long-term solvency of the National Security Education Trust 
Fund. The Committee directs the President, National Defense 
University and the Under Secretary of Defense (Comptroller) to 
jointly prepare a complete report on the status of the Trust 
Fund, with proposed solutions to resolve any identified 
challenges. This report is to be submitted to the congressional 
defense committees before presentation of the fiscal year 2005 
budget estimate.

                               TITLE VIII

  COMPLIANCE WITH PARAGRAPH 7, RULE XVI, OF THE STANDING RULES OF THE 
                                 SENATE

    Paragraph 7 of rule XVI requires that Committee reports on 
general appropriations bills identify each Committee amendment 
to the House bill ``which proposes an item of appropriation 
which is not made to carry out the provisions of an existing 
law, a treaty stipulation, or an act or resolution previously 
passed by the Senate during that session.''
    At the point when the Committee reports this measure, the 
Congress has not completed action on the Fiscal Year 2003 
Defense Authorization Act. As a consequence, the Committee has 
acted in good faith in its attempt to comply fully with 
requirements stipulated under paragraph 7, rule XVI.
    The Committee anticipates that Congress will authorize the 
amounts appropriated in this act.

COMPLIANCE WITH PARAGRAPH 7(C), RULE XXVI OF THE STANDING RULES OF THE 
                                 SENATE

    Pursuant to paragraph 7(c) of rule XXVI, on July 9, 2003, 
the Committee ordered reported en bloc S. 1382, an original 
bill making appropriations for the Department of Defense for 
the fiscal year ending September 30, 2004, and S. 1383, an 
original bill making appropriations for the Legislative Branch 
for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2004, each subject to 
amendment and each subject to the budget allocations, by a 
recorded vote of 29-0, a quorum being present. The vote was as 
follows:

 COMPLIANCE WITH PARAGRAPH 12, RULE XXVI OF THE STANDING RULES OF THE 
                                 SENATE

    Paragraph 12 of rule XXVI requires that Committee reports 
on a bill or joint resolution repealing or amending any statute 
or part of any statute include ``(a) the text of the statute or 
part thereof which is proposed to be repealed; and (b) a 
comparative print of that part of the bill or joint resolution 
making the amendment and of the statute or part thereof 
proposed to be amended, showing by stricken-through type and 
italics, parallel columns, or other appropriate typographical 
devices the omissions and insertions which would be made by the 
bill or joint resolution if enacted in the form recommended by 
the committee.''
    With respect to this bill, it is the opinion of the 
Committee that it is necessary to dispense with these 
requirements in order to expedite the business of the Senate.
