section:

‘‘§ 5545a. Availability pay for criminal investigators

‘‘(a) For purposes of this section—

‘‘(1) the term ‘available’ refers to the availability of a criminal investigator and means that an investigator shall be considered generally and reasonably accessible by the agency

employing such investigator to perform unscheduled duty based

on the needs of an agency; ‘‘(2) the term ‘criminal investigator’ means a law enforce- ment officer as defined under section 5541(3) (other than an

officer occupying a position under title II of Public Law 99–

the use of some investigative techniques in short-term

situations that may end in arrest or detention);

‘‘(E) possess knowledge of criminal laws and Federal

rules of procedure which apply to cases involving crimes

against the United States, including—

‘‘(i) knowledge of the elements of a crime;

criminal investigator works, or is determined to be available

for work, that are not—

‘‘(A) part of the 40 hours in the basic work week

of the investigator; or

‘‘(B) overtime hours paid under section 5542; and

‘‘(4) the term ‘regular work day’ means each day in the

investigator’s basic work week during which the investigator

works at least 4 hours that are not overtime hours paid under

‘‘(b) The purpose of this section is to provide premium pay

to criminal investigators to ensure the availability of criminal investigators for unscheduled duty in excess of a 40 hour work week

based on the needs of the employing agency.

‘‘(c) Each criminal investigator shall be paid availability pay

as provided under this section. Availability pay shall be paid to

ensure the availability of the investigator for unscheduled duty.

The investigator is generally responsible for recognizing, without

supervision, circumstances which require the investigator to be

on duty or be available for unscheduled duty based on the needs

of the agency. Availability pay provided to a criminal investigator

for such unscheduled duty shall be paid instead of premium pay

provided by other provisions of this subchapter, except premium

pay for regularly scheduled overtime work as provided under section

5542, night duty, Sunday duty, and holiday duty.

‘‘(d)(1) A criminal investigator shall be paid availability pay,

if the average of hours described under paragraph (2) (A) and

(B) is equal to or greater than 2 hours.

‘‘(2) The hours referred to under paragraph (1) are—

‘‘(A) the annual average of unscheduled duty hours worked

by the investigator in excess of each regular work day; and

‘‘(B) the annual average of unscheduled duty hours such

investigator is available to work on each regular work day

upon request of the employing agency.

‘‘(3) Unscheduled duty hours which are worked by an investigator on days that are not regular work days shall be considered

in the calculation of the annual average of unscheduled duty hours

worked or available for purposes of certification.

‘‘(4) An investigator shall be considered to be available when

the investigator cannot reasonably and generally be accessible due

to a status or assignment which is the result of an agency direction,

order, or approval as provided under subsection (f)(1).
H. R. 4539—46

designated by the head of the agency, shall make an annual certification to the head of the agency that the investigator has met,

and is expected to meet, the requirements of subsection (d). The

head of a law enforcement agency may prescribe regulations necessary to administer this subsection. ‘‘(2) Involuntary reduction in pay resulting from a denial of certification under paragraph (1) shall be a reduction in pay for

purposes of section 7512(4) of this title. ‘‘(f)(1) A criminal investigator who is eligible for availability pay shall receive such pay during any period such investigator

is—

‘‘(A) attending agency sanctioned training;

‘‘(B) on agency approved sick leave or annual leave;

‘‘(C) on agency ordered travel status; or

‘‘(D) on excused absence with pay for relocation purposes. ‘‘(2) Notwithstanding paragraph (1)(A), agencies or departments may provide availability pay to investigators during training which

is considered initial, basic training usually provided in the first

year of service. ‘‘(3) Agencies or departments may provide availability pay to investigators when on excused absence with pay, except as provided

in paragraph (1)(D). ‘‘(g) Section 5545(c) shall not apply to any criminal investigator who is paid availability pay under this section. ‘‘(h) Availability pay under this section shall be— ‘‘(1) 25 percent of the rate of basic pay for the position; and

to any criminal investigator who is paid availability pay under

subsection (a), at the rates there provided, for overtime work

which is scheduled in advance of the administrative workweek—

‘‘(A) in excess of 10 hours on a day during such investigator’s basic 40 hour workweek; or

of this Act, may implement availability pay at any time prior

to September 30, 1995, after which date availability pay as

authorized under this section shall be provided to such criminal

investigators. (2) Criminal investigators, employed by Offices of Inspectors General, who are receiving administratively uncontrollable

overtime at a rate less than 25 percent, shall continue to

receive this compensation at the same rate or higher until

SEC. 634. (a) Section 5704 of title 5, United States Code, is

amended to read as follows:

‘‘(a)(1) Under regulations prescribed under section 5707 of this

title, an employee who is engaged on official business for the

Government is entitled to a rate per mile established by the

Administrator of General Services, instead of the actual expenses

of transportation, for the use of a privately owned automobile when

that mode of transportation is authorized or approved as more

advantageous to the Government. In any year in which the Internal
H. R. 4539—48

Revenue Service establishes a single standard mileage rate for

optional use by taxpayers in computing the deductible costs of

operating their automobiles for business purposes, the rate per

mile established by the Administrator shall not exceed the single

standard mileage rate established by the Internal Revenue Service.

‘‘(2) Under regulations prescribed under section 5707 of this

title, an employee who is engaged on official business for the

Government is entitled to a rate per mile established by the

Administrator of General Services, instead of the actual expenses

of transportation, for the use of a privately owned airplane or

a privately owned motorcycle when that mode of transportation

is authorized or approved as more advantageous to the Government.

‘‘(b) A determination that travel by a privately owned vehicle

is more advantageous to the Government is not required under

subsection (a) of this section when payment on a mileage basis

is limited to the cost of travel by common carrier including per

diem.

‘‘(c) Notwithstanding the provisions of subsections (a) and (b)

of this section, in any case in which an employee who is engaged

on official business for the Government chooses to use a privately

owned vehicle in lieu of a Government vehicle, payment on a

mileage basis is limited to the cost of travel by a Government

vehicle.

‘‘(d) In addition to the rate per mile authorized under subsection

(a) of this section, the employee may be reimbursed for—

‘‘(1) parking fees;

‘‘(2) ferry fees;

‘‘(3) bridge, road, and tunnel costs; and

‘‘(4) airplane landing and tie-down fees.’’. (b) Section 5707(b) of title 5, United States Code, is amended

to read as follows:

‘‘(b) The Administrator of General Services shall prescribe the

mileage reimbursement rates for use on official business of privately

owned airplanes, privately owned automobiles, and privately owned

motorcycles while engaged on official business as provided for in

section 5704 of this title as follows:

‘‘(1)(A) The Administrator of General Services, in consultation with the Comptroller General of the United States, the

Secretary of Transportation, the Secretary of Defense, and representatives of organizations of employees of the Government,

shall conduct periodic investigations of the cost of travel and

the operation of privately owned vehicles to employees while

engaged on official business, and shall report the results of

such investigations to Congress at least once a year. ‘‘(B) In conducting the periodic investigations, the Administrator shall review and analyze among other factors—

‘‘(i) depreciation of original vehicle cost;

‘‘(ii) gasoline and oil (excluding taxes);

‘‘(iii) maintenance, accessories, parts, and tires;

‘‘(iv) insurance; and

‘‘(v) State and Federal taxes.

‘‘(2)(A) The Administrator shall issue regulations under

this section which—

‘‘(i) shall prescribe a mileage reimbursement rate which

reflects the current costs as determined by the Administrator of operating privately owned automobiles, and which

shall not exceed, as provided in section 5704(a)(1) of this
H. R. 4539—49

title, the single standard mileage rate established by the

Internal Revenue Service, and

‘‘(ii) shall prescribe mileage reimbursement rates which

reflect the current costs as determined by the Administrator of operating privately owned airplanes and motorcycles.

‘‘(B) At least once each year after the issuance of the

regulations described in subparagraph (A) of this paragraph,

the Administrator shall determine, based upon the results of

the cost investigation, specific figures, each rounded to the

nearest half cent, of the average, actual cost per mile during

the period for the use of a privately owned airplane, automobile,

and motorcycle.

‘‘(C) The Administrator shall report the specific figures

to Congress not later than five working days after the Administrator makes the cost determination. Each such report shall

be printed in the Federal Register.

‘‘(D) The mileage reimbursement rates contained in the

regulations prescribed under this section shall be adjusted

within thirty days following the submission of the report under

subparagraph (C) of this paragraph.’’.

(c) Section 5707 of title 5, United States Code, is amended

by striking paragraph (c)(2), and redesignating (c)(1) as subsection

(c).

SEC. 635. SENSE OF THE SENATE REGARDING CANADA’S RESTRICTIONS ON IMPORTS OF UNITED STATES CHICKENS.

(a) FINDINGS.—The Senate makes the following findings:

(1) The United States chicken industry is a highly competitive and growing industry which employs over 200,000 people,

has over 25,000 family farms, and has significant production

in over 28 States.

(2) United States exports of chickens grew by 32 percent

in volume in 1993 and exports are increasingly important to

the continued economic vitality of the chicken industry.

(3) Canada’s chicken supply management system has

severely limited the importation of United States chickens to

Canada since it was imposed over 15 years ago, and its elimination would lead to between $350,000,000 and $700,000,000

in new exports to Canada and between 7,000 and 14,000 new

jobs in the United States.

(4) Canada’s chicken supply management system protects

Canadian chicken growers while seriously hurting both United

States and Canadian food processors, retailers, and consumers.

(5) The United States and Canada have a free trade agreement which calls for the elimination of all tariffs and prohibits

the imposition of new tariffs on any goods traded bilaterally.

(6) The goals of the Uruguay Round Agreement on Agriculture are to liberalize and expand trade in agriculture and

to eliminate distortions to such trade.

(7) Canada refused to negotiate the issue of elimination

of its severe trade restrictions on the importation of United

States chickens as part of the North American Free Trade

Agreement (hereafter referred to as ‘‘NAFTA’’) because the

issue was part of the global trade negotiations under the Uruguay Round.
H. R. 4539—50

(8) The Uruguay Round has now concluded and the former

and current United States Trade Representative, as well as

other key cabinet-level officials, have stated that Canada will

be in violation of its NAFTA obligations if it does not eliminate

its newly imposed tariffs on chickens.

(9) The United States chicken industry has waited patiently

for access to Canadian markets, which would be the United

States largest export market for chickens if it were fully open.

(10) NAFTA should lead to free and completely open trade

for the chicken industry between the United States and Canada,

as it will between the United States and Mexico.

(11) The United States and Canada are currently holding

discussions to resolve this and other bilateral agricultural

matters.

(b) SENSE OF THE SENATE.—It is the sense of the Senate that—

(1) the United States should reserve all current and future

rights to bring Canada into compliance with its tariff obligations

under NAFTA, including the use of bilateral or multilateral

dispute settlement proceedings; and

(2) any agreement that is negotiated between the United

States and Canada on chickens should lead to—

(A) substantial and immediate new market access

opportunities for United States chicken exports in excess

of the levels that have already been achieved; and

(B) a commitment from Canada before the effective

date of the Uruguay Round Agreements which—

(i) establishes a timeframe for the elimination of

all of Canada’s tariffs on chickens; and

(ii) provides for growth in market access levels

for United States chicken exports to Canada during

the period such tariffs are being phased out.

SEC. 636. No part of any appropriation contained in this Act

may be used to pay for the expenses of travel of employees, including

employees of the Executive Office of the President, not directly

responsible for the discharge of official governmental tasks and

duties: Provided, That this restriction shall not apply to the family

of the President, Members of Congress or their spouses, Heads

of State of a foreign country or their designee(s), persons providing

assistance to the President for official purposes, or other individuals

so designated by the President.

(B) by striking the last sentence and inserting the

following: ‘‘Each medal shall consist of gold-plate over

bronze, rhodium over bronze, or bronze and shall be struck

in accordance with subsection (f).’’; and

(2) by adding at the end the following new subsection:

‘‘(f) CONGRESSIONAL AWARD PROGRAM MEDALS.—

‘‘(1) DESIGN AND STRIKING.—The Secretary of the Treasury

shall strike the medals described in subsection (a) and awarded

by the Board under this Act. Subject to subsection (a), the

medals shall be of such quantity, design, and specifications

as the Secretary of the Treasury may determine, after consultation with the Board.
H. R. 4539—51

‘‘(2) NATIONAL MEDALS.—The medals struck pursuant to

this Act are National medals for purposes of chapter 51 of

title 31, United States Code.

‘‘(3) AUTHORIZATION OF APPROPRIATIONS.—There are

authorized to be charged against the Numismatic Public Enterprise Fund such amounts as may be necessary to pay for

the cost of the medals struck pursuant to this Act.’’.

SEC. 638. Notwithstanding any provision of law, the President,

or his designee, must certify to Congress, annually, that no person

or persons with direct or indirect responsibility for administering

the Executive Office of the President’s Drug-Free Workplace Plan

are themselves subject to a program of individual random drug

testing.

SEC. 639. Section 3626, paragraph (j)(1), subparagraph (D),

of title 39, United States Code is amended by—

(a) deleting the final ‘‘.’’ from (II) and adding ‘‘; and’’;

and

(b) adding ‘‘(III) clause (i) shall not apply to space advertising in mail matter that otherwise qualifies for rates under

former section 4452(b) or 4452(c) of this title, and satisfies

shall take effect immediately and shall stay in effect hereafter

unless the Congress enacts legislation on this matter prior

to October 1, 1995.

SEC. 640. In the administration of section 3702 of title 31,

United States Code, the Comptroller General of the United States

shall apply a 6-year statute of limitations to any claim of a Federal

employee under the Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938 (29 U.S.C.

201 et seq.) for claims filed before June 30, 1994.

SEC. 641. The Bureau of the Public Debt is authorized to

pay in advance or reimburse any Treasury organization, an amount

not to exceed one year of salary and benefits for each Public Debt

employee hired by that organization described in section 521(a)

of this Act.

SEC. 642. Chapter 63 of title 5 of the United States Code

is amended by adding, following the word ‘‘Forces’’ in section 6326,

a new section 6327 to read as follows:

‘‘§ 6327. Absence in connection with funerals of fellow Federal law enforcement officers

‘‘A Federal law enforcement officer or a Federal firefighter

may be excused from duty without loss of, or reduction in, pay

or leave to which such officer is otherwise entitled, or credit for

time or service, or performance or efficiency rating, to attend the

funeral of a fellow Federal law enforcement officer or Federal firefighter, who was killed in the line of duty. When so excused from

duty, attendance at such service shall for the purposes of section

1345(a) of title 31, be considered to be an official duty of the

officer or firefighter.’’.

SEC. 643. Of the amount appropriated for ‘‘Government Payment for Annuitants, Employee Life Insurance’’ under this Act,

such sums as may be necessary for such payments for the period

September 15 through 30, 1994 shall become available upon enactment of this Act.

SEC. 644. (a) The Office of Management and Budget shall

report to the Congress no later than November 1, 1994, for each
H. R. 4539—52

agency for which the budgetary resources available to the agency

in fiscal year 1995 would be canceled in an appropriations Act

to achieve savings in procurement and procurement-related

expenses, of the manner in which these savings are to be achieved.

(b) Notwithstanding any other provision of law, each agency

for which the budgetary resources available to the agency in fiscal

year 1995 would be canceled in an appropriations Act to achieve

savings in procurement and procurement-related expenses, such

cancellation shall occur on November 30, 1994, or 30 days after
