JOINT EXPLANATORY STATEMENT TO 

ACCOMPANY THE NATIONAL DEFENSE 

AUTHORIZATION ACT FOR FISCAL 

YEAR 2015

The following consists of the explanatory material to 

accompany the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 

2015. 

Section 5 of the Act specifies that this explanatory 

statement shall have the same effect with respect to the 

implementation of this legislation as if it were a joint 

explanatory statement of a committee of conference.

In this joint explanatory statement, the provisions of 

H.R. 4435, the House-passed version of the National Defense 

Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2015, are generally referred 

to as ‘‘the House bill.’’ The provisions of S. 2410, the Senate 

Committee on Armed Services committee-reported version of the 

National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2015, are 

generally referred to as ‘‘the Senate committee-reported bill.’’ 

Senate amendments included in the agreements are identified by 

Senate amendment numbers. The final form of the agreements 

reached during negotiations between the House and the Senate are 

referred to as ‘‘the agreement.’’

Compliance with rules of the House of Representatives and Senate 

regarding earmarks and congressionally directed spending items

Consistent with the intent of clause 9 of rule XXI of the 

Rules of the House of Representatives and Rule XLIV of the 

Standing Rules of the Senate, neither the bill text reflected in 

the agreement nor the accompanying joint explanatory statement 

contains any congressional earmarks, congressionally-directed 

spending items, limited tax benefits, or limited tariff 

benefits, as defined in such rules.

Summary of discretionary authorizations and budget implication

The administration’s budget request for national defense 

discretionary programs within the jurisdiction of the Committees 

on Armed Services of the Senate and the House of Representatives 

for fiscal year 2015 was $577.1 billion. Of this amount, $495.5 

billion was requested for base Department of Defense (DOD) 

programs, $63.7 billion was requested for overseas contingency 
2

operations (OCO), and $17.9 billion was requested for national 

security programs in the Department of Energy (DOE) and the 

Defense Nuclear Facilities Safety Board (DNFSB). The budget 

request incorporates the amendments submitted to Congress on 

June 26, 2014 and November 10, 2014.

The bill authorizes $577.1 billion in fiscal year 2015, 

including $495.9 billion for base DOD programs, $63.7 billion 

for OCO, and $17.5 billion for national security programs in the 

DOE and the DNFSB.

The two tables preceding the detailed program adjustments 

in Division D of this joint explanatory statement summarize the 

direct discretionary authorizations in the agreement and the 

equivalent budget authority levels for fiscal year 2015 defense 

programs. The first table summarizes the agreement on 

authorizations within the jurisdiction of the Armed Services 

Committees. The second table details the budget authority 

implication of the discretionary authorizations in the agreement 

when accounting for national defense items that are not in the 

jurisdiction of the Armed Services Committees.

Budgetary effects of this Act (sec. 4)

The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision 

(sec. 4) that would require the budgetary effects of this Act be 

determined in accordance with the procedures established in 

title I of the Statutory Pay-As-You-Go Act of 2010 (Public Law 

111-139).

The House bill contained no similar provision. 

The agreement includes the Senate provision.

DIVISION A—DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE 

AUTHORIZATIONS

TITLE I—PROCUREMENT

BUDGET ITEMS

Navy enterprise information technology

The budget request included $87.2 million in Other 

Procurement, Navy Line 161 for enterprise information technology 

(IT). 

The House bill would approve the budget request.

The Senate committee-reported bill would decrease that 

line item by $15.0 million to reflect concerns about the 

continued investment of funds into legacy IT infrastructure.

The agreement authorizes the budget request for this item.

We note that much of this funding is supporting 

procurements related to the sustainment of legacy Navy IT 

systems located outside the continental United States (OCONUS). 

We understand that these procurements are necessary to provide 

technical upgrades to sustain these networks as the Navy 

determines how to converge all of its networks as part of a 

future Naval Networking Environment. The investment required by 

this funding would bring the OCONUS networks up to a standard 

that could support a transition to the Next Generation 

Enterprise Network contract in the future, which would also 

align Navy networks in a way that would support the enterprisewide push to standardize capabilities in the Joint Information 

Environment framework. We note that this set of hardware and 

network systems transitions entail additional cost, technical 

risk, and potentially operational risk to deployed forces, which 

could have been avoided with better planning for and more 

strategic funding of the systems. We expect the Navy, as well 

as the Department of Defense Chief Information Officer, to 

ensure that all Department of Navy and Department of Defense 

enterprise IT system efforts have robust planning related to and 

funding dedicated for the maintenance and sustainment of legacy 

systems, and to ensure that systems meet requirements and 

reflect modern state-of-the-art IT systems, to the maximum 

extent practicable and that this is documented in the programs’ 

acquisition strategy documentation. This should apply to both 

Major Automated Information Systems (MAIS) and non-MAIS efforts.

Ejection seat safety and reliability improvement program

The amended budget request included no funds for the 

procurement of modernized and upgraded ejection seats for 

Department of the Air Force fighter and bomber aircraft. 

The House bill would increase the budget request by a 

total of $10.5 million, of which $3.5 million is for initial 

qualification of upgraded ejection seats in the Research, 

Development, Test, and Evaluation, Air Force (RDT&E, AF) 

account, and $7.0 million is for initial installation of 

upgraded ejection seats in the Aircraft Procurement, Air Force 

(APAF) account.

The Senate committee-reported bill approved the budget 

request. 

We recommend an additional increase of $6.0 million 

ejection seat programs, including $3.5 million in RDT&E, AF, and 

$2.5 million in APAF. 

Section 146(b) of the National Defense Authorization Act 

for Fiscal Year 2014 (Public Law 113-66) required a report by 

the Secretary of the Air Force on various aspects of the health 

and safety risks associated with ejection seats. The report 

confirmed that, with increased use of helmet-mounted devices, 

the risks of death or serious injury increases, and increases 

even more for lighter aircrew. 

In response to a requirement to analyze initiatives to 

decrease the risk of death or serious injury during an ejection 

sequence, the report indicated that, although the Air Force had 

spent $25.8 million for investments in safety improvements for 

existing seats, the Air Force had stopped short of final 

qualification testing. 

The report also referred to an Air Force analysis of 

alternatives (AoA) that the Air Force had conducted in 2010 that 

supported: “(a) an improved ejection seat solution with an 

expanded anthropometric envelope that would match the current 

pilot population to increase safety; and (b) a design that 

reduces aircraft life cycle costs.” 

We believe that the Air Force should review and update, as 

necessary, the 2010 AoA, and establish a program for increasing 

the ejection safety and reliability of the Air Force’s fighter 

and bomber aircraft. 

SUBTITLE A-AUTHORIZATION OF APPROPRIATIONS

Authorization of appropriations (sec. 101)

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 101) 

authorizing appropriations for fiscal year 2015 for procurement

SUBTITLE C-NAVY PROGRAMS

Construction of San Antonio class amphibious ship (sec. 121)

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 122) that would 

authorize the Secretary of the Navy to enter into a contract 

during fiscal year 2015 for the procurement of one San Antonioclass amphibious ship using incremental funding.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision 

(sec. 123) that would authorize the Secretary of the Navy to 

transfer funds available in the Shipbuilding and Conversion, 

Navy (SCN), or other Navy procurement account for either or both 

of the following purposes: 

(1) Up to $650.0 million to conduct a refueling and 

complex overhaul of the USS George Washington (CVN-73). 

(2) Up to $650.0 million to build a San Antonioclass amphibious ship. 

The Senate provision would also authorize the Secretary of 

the Navy to use incremental funding for a San Antonio-class ship 

if additional funds are made available in fiscal year 2015.

The agreement includes the House provision. The agreement 

also provides full funding for the fiscal year 2015 requirements 

for conducting a refueling and complex overhaul of the USS 

George Washington (CVN-73), and provides authorization for 

$800.0 million for the San Antonio-class amphibious ship program 

elsewhere in this Act.

DOT&E certification would be with regard to each mission module, 

rather than with each increment of capability for each mission 

module.

Extension of limitation on availability of funds for Littoral 

Combat Ship (sec. 123)

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 126) that would 

amend section 124(a) of the National Defense Authorization Act 

for Fiscal Year 2014 to extend the prohibition on spending in 

section 124 to include fiscal year 2015. Section 124 prevents 

using funds available in fiscal year 2014 for construction or 

advanced procurement of materials for the Littoral Combat Ships 

designated as LCS-25 or LCS-26 until the Secretary of the Navy 

submits certain reports and information to the congressional 

defense committees. 

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision.

The agreement includes this provision.

Report on test evaluation master plan for Littoral Combat Ship 

seaframes and mission modules (sec. 124)

The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision 

(sec. 122) that would require the Director of Operational Test

(sec. 121) would direct the Secretary of the Navy to take 

whatever steps the Secretary deems appropriate and are available 

to the Navy to ensure that the Navy retains the option of buying 

more EA-18G aircraft, if further analysis of whether to expand 

the airborne electronic attack (AEA) force structure indicates 

the Navy should include more EA-18G aircraft in carrier air 

wings. The provision would also authorize the Navy, subject to 

appropriation, to use $75.0 million in funds authorized and 

appropriated in fiscal year 2014 for advance procurement funds 

of F/A-18 E/F aircraft for the purpose of retaining such an 

option. The Senate committee-reported bill also recommended an 

increase of $25.0 million in section 4101 for those purposes.

The House bill contained no similar provision. The House 

bill recommended an increase of $450.0 million in section 4101 

to purchase additional EA-18G aircraft. 

The agreement includes the Senate provision with an 

amendment that would exclude language regarding the use of prior 

year funds. We also include a recommendation for additional 

funding for EA-18G aircraft elsewhere in this Act. 

SUBTITLE D-AIR FORCE PROGRAMS

Prohibition on availability of funds for retirement of MQ–1 

Predator aircraft (sec. 131)

prohibit obligation or expenditure of fiscal year 2015 funds to 

retire A–10 aircraft. The provision would also require the 

Comptroller General of the United States to conduct a study 

evaluating Air Force aircraft used, as of the date of the study, 

to conduct close-air support missions.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained a similar 

provision (sec. 134) that would prohibit obligation or 

expenditure of fiscal year 2015 funds to make significant 

changes to manning levels with respect to any A–10 aircraft 

squadrons, or to retire, prepare to retire, or place in storage 

any A–10 aircraft.

The agreement includes the Senate provision with an 

amendment that would allow the Secretary of Defense to authorize 

the Secretary of the Air Force to move up to 36 A-10 in the 

active component primary aircraft inventory (PAI) status to back 

up flying status, or back up aircraft inventory (BAI) status, 

for the duration of fiscal year 2015, 30 days after certifying 

to the congressional defense committees that he has: 

(1) Received the results of an independent 

assessment by the Director of the Office of Cost Assessment 

and Program Evaluation of alternative ways to provide 

manpower to maintain the Air Force fighter fleet and field 

Joint Strike Fighter aircraft in fiscal year 2015; and

(2) Determined, after giving consideration to such 

analysis, that moving active component aircraft in PAI 

status to BAI status is needed to avoid:

(a) Significantly degrading the readiness of 

the Air Force fighter fleet; or

(b) Significantly delaying the planned 

fielding of F–35 aircraft. 

The agreement also includes the requirement that the 

Comptroller General conduct the study of close-air support 

missions as was included in the House provision.

If the Secretary of Defense makes the certification and 

allows the Secretary of the Air Force to transfer A-10 aircraft 

from PAI to BAI status, we direct the Secretary of Defense to 

reprogram any money freed up as a result of reduced flying hours 
9

obligated funds authorized to be appropriated or otherwise made 

available for fiscal years prior to fiscal year 2015 for the AMP 

program of record for C–130 aircraft.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision. 

A proposed amendment to the Senate committee-reported bill 

(amendment number 3588) contained a provision that would allow 

the Air Force to use programs in addition to the AMP for C-130 

aircraft to modernize such aircraft. 

The agreement includes the House provision with an 

amendment that would permit the Air Force to make modifications 

to C-130 aircraft, such as Automatic Dependent Surveillance 

Broadcast–Out (ADSB-Out) or the communication, navigation, 

surveillance and air traffic management (CNS/ATM) program, that 

would be required to operate without restriction in airspace 

controlled by the Federal Aviation Administration or other 

national aviation authority in foreign countries, upon a 

certification by the Secretary of Defense that such modification 

is required to operate without restriction in such airspace. 

The provision would also prevent the Air Force from obligating 

more than 85 percent of the funds for operation and maintenance

amendment that would require the Secretary to submit a 5-year 

plan for basing C-130H and C-130J aircraft, and would require 

that, for units with special capabilities such as the MAFFS 

mission, a certification that those special missions would not 
12

be negatively affected by the proposed transfers before making 

the transfers. 

We do not intend that the prohibition on transfer of C-130 

aircraft apply to movements of aircraft associated with normal 

Air Force management of the C-130 fleet, such as transferring 

aircraft between units and depots in conjunction with conducting 

regular maintenance or upgrades of the aircraft.

provision.

The agreement does not include this provision.

We believe that the Department should review its overall 

missile portfolio and propose more economical procurement 

strategies in the fiscal year 2016 budget request, including the 

use of multiyear procurements, block buys, and contracts with 

one or more years of priced options. 

Procurement of advanced threat emitters

A proposed amendment to the Senate committee-reported bill 

(amendment number 3575) contained a provision that would express 

the sense of Congress on the procurement of advanced threat 

emitters, their importance in providing vital electronic warfare 

training, and need for the Air Force to prioritize its 

acquisition. 

The House bill contained no similar provision.

The agreement does not include this provision. 

We recognize the Joint Threat Emitter system provides 

vital electronic warfare training for combat aircrews by 

simulating the multiple threat scenarios of a hostile integrated 

air defense system. We also note that the system of threat 

emitters currently in use on U.S. military ranges has 

deficiencies. These deficiencies place our forces at risk and 

could jeopardize mission success. We believe the Department of 

Defense and the services should consider prioritizing and 

accelerating the acquisition and fielding of a modernized system 

of threat emitters beyond the level requested in the President’s 

fiscal year 2015 budget.

Sense of Congress regarding the OCONUS basing of the F-35A

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 142) that would 

express the sense of Congress, regarding the Outside the 

Continental United States (OCONUS) basing of the F-35A, that the 

Secretary of the Air Force should place emphasis on the benefits 

derived from sites that:

(1) Are capable of hosting fighter-based bilateral 

and multilateral training opportunities with international 

partners;

(2) Have sufficient airspace and range capabilities 

and capacity to meet the training requirements;

(3) Have existing facilities to support personnel, 

operations, and logistics associated with the flying 

mission;
17

(4) Have limited encroachment that would adversely 

impact training or operations; and

(5) Minimize the overall construction and 

operational costs.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision.

The agreement does not include this provision.

We are aware that the Air Force uses a deliberate 

strategic basing process to make its basing decisions. In 

October 2013, the Air Force announced the list of bases in the 

Pacific Air Force command being considered to beddown the first 

F-35A squadrons OCONUS. In August 2014, the Air Force announced 

that the Secretary of the Air Force had chosen Eielson Air Force 

Base, Alaska as the preferred alternative to host the first F35A squadrons in the Pacific Air Forces area of responsibility. 

We support the Air Force’s strategic basing process and 

believe that it provides a thorough, consistent, and transparent 

process for basing decisions. When the Air Force is evaluating 

candidate bases for new units and missions, we believe that the 

Air Force should use criteria-based analysis and military 

judgment at each location, to include enterprise, mission, 

capacity, costs and environment. For different circumstances, 

such as OCONUS basing, the Air Force may also need to include 

additional criteria, such as notification of a host nation 

partner. 

TITLE II—RESEARCH, DEVELOPMENT, TEST, AND 

EVALUATION

BUDGET ITEMS

Strategic Capabilities Office

The budget request included $250.0 million in research, 

development, test and evaluation, defense-wide for the 

activities of the Strategic Capabilities Office (SCO). 

The House bill would decrease funding for SCO by $30.0 

million.

The Senate committee-reported bill would decrease funding 

for SCO by $15.0 million. 

The agreement reduces the budget request for SCO by $10.0 

in PE 63289D8Z and $20.0 million in PE 64250D8Z.

We are aware of and supportive of the valuable work that 

the SCO has been conducting. Though the efforts of SCO are still 

in early stages and have only recently begun to produce some 

tangible capabilities, we see promising concepts being supported 
18

by investment. We do have concerns that SCO projects are being 

scaled at a rate that is not commensurate with the results that 

have been shown so far. We believe that the SCO could benefit 

from senior level guidance and oversight to ensure that 

promising ideas are more closely tied to the needs, requirements 

and priorities of the combatant commands. Additionally, for 

those programs in Advanced Capability and Prototyping (6.4) 

budget activity, we also believe the programs need to have an 

estimated cost to field the capability, if the demonstration 

proves successful, to support transition planning activities.

We also believe that senior level involvement is necessary 

to help coordinate SCO efforts with other research and 

development activities of the Department of Defense (DOD), 

especially within the office of the Under Secretary of Defense 

for Acquisition, Technology and Logistics and the Defense 

Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA). In a budget 

constrained environment, better coordination of SCO efforts with 

the entire research and development enterprise, including the 

various communities of interest established by the Assistant 

Secretary of Defense for Research and Engineering, will enhance 

SCO’s effectiveness by leveraging the funding and expertise of 

the entire of the research enterprise.

Additionally, we understand that leadership within DOD is 

looking at establishing a charter for, and changing the 

organizational reporting structure of, the SCO. We believe that 

DOD should examine a range of options to determine where to 

position and how to resource the office. We fully expect DOD to 

inform the congressional defense committees on any significant 

changes to SCO before any changes are formalized.

High Energy Liquid Laser Area Defense System

The budget request included $386.9 million in PE 63766E 

for network-centric warfare technology. 

The House bill would approve the budget request.

The Senate committee-reported bill would decrease funding 

for the High Energy Liquid Laser Area Defense System (HELLADS) 

within that line item by $20.0 million.

The agreement authorizes the budget request for this item.

We note that the HELLADS has been funded by the Defense 

Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) for over 10 years, 

with over $200 million expended to date. We note that a planned 

fiscal year 2015 technology demonstration will mark the end of 

DARPA’s investment in technical development. We are concerned 

that the program still has no identified commitments for a 

transition pathway to a service program for further development 

or demonstration. At this point, we believe that even a 
19

successful demonstration of HELLADS capabilities in fiscal year 

2015 is not likely to result in any meaningful transition of the 

capability to a service program. Therefore, we direct the 

Assistant Secretary of Defense for Research and Engineering, 

acting through the congressionally-mandated Joint Technology 

Office for High Energy Lasers, to review current DARPA-service 

plans for transition of the HELLADS capabilities and provide a 

report on the plans, schedules, and identified resources to 

support integration and transition into any service-led directed 

energy efforts, no later than March 1, 2015.

SUBTITLE A—AUTHORIZATION OF APPROPRIATIONS

Authorization of appropriations (sec. 201)

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 201) 

authorizing appropriations for fiscal year 2015 for the use of 

the Department of Defense for research, development, test, and 

evaluation, as specified in the funding table in section 4201.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained an identical 

provision (sec. 201). 

The agreement includes this provision.

SUBTITLE B—PROGRAM REQUIREMENTS, 

RESTRICTIONS, AND LIMITATIONS

Modification of authority for prizes for advanced technology 

achievements (sec. 211)

The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision 

(sec. 211) that would modify the authority of the Secretary of 

Defense to hold prize and challenge competitions to spur 

advanced technology achievements. 

The House bill contained no similar provision.

The agreement includes this provision.

In the recently announced “Better Buying Power (BBP) 3.0” 

initiative, Undersecretary of Defense for Acquisition, 

Technology and Logistics Frank Kendall called for improved 

communication between industry and the government in order to 

increase the productivity of both government and industry 

research efforts, including Independent Research and Development 

performed by industry. We recognize the merits of such a 

suggestion, as well as the challenges in developing an effective 

communications process that is able to be adaptive enough to 

protect intellectual property and data rights, and protect both 
20

industry and government partners from bid protests when informed 

interest shifts to informed acquisition. 

We note that prize authority has historically been used to 

good effect at aligning the government’s technology and research 

goals with the resources, ambition, and innovation of the 

private sector. From the Longitude Prize in 1714 that resulted 

in improved ship navigation capabilities, to the Defense 

Advanced Research Projects Agency Grand Challenge in 2005 which 

resulted in demonstrating autonomous ground vehicle navigation, 

government prize authority has demonstrated the ability to bring 

together government and industry funding, technology and 

expertise to produce revolutionary new technological 

capabilities. While we do not believe that such prizes can 

replace the kind of coordination and dialogue sought in BBP 3.0, 

it is an important tool in the toolbox for demonstrating the 

benefits of such a process for both the government and industry.

Modification of Manufacturing Technology Program (sec. 212)

The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision 

(sec. 212) that would clarify that the Under Secretary of 

Defense for Acquisition, Technology, and Logistics or his 

designees should conduct oversight of the Joint Defense 

Manufacturing Technology Panel, which coordinates manufacturing 

technology and research programs for the Department of Defense. 

Further, the provision reduces the frequency of mandated updates 

to the Manufacturing Technology program’s strategic plan, to 

better synchronize this effort with the Quadrennial Defense 

Review process. 

The House bill contained no similar provision.

The agreement includes this provision.

We intend that the next strategic plan be developed in 

coordination with the Quadrennial Defense Review currently 

scheduled for 2018.

Revision of requirement for acquisition programs to maintain 

defense research facility records (sec. 213)

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 222) that would 

modify the requirements to subsection (b) of section 2364 of 

title 10, United States Code, to eliminate the need for 

acquisition programs to maintain a record of all issue papers 

from a defense research facility related to said acquisition 

programs.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained a similar 

provision (sec. 806).
21

The agreement includes the House provision with a 

technical amendment.

Treatment by Department of Defense Test Resource Management 

Center of significant modifications to test and evaluation 

facilities and resources (sec. 214)

The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision 

(sec. 214) that would direct the Secretary of the Army and the 

Director of the Test Resource Management Center (TRMC) to report 

on significant reductions or consolidations of major test 

facilities.

The House bill contained no similar provision.

The agreement includes a provision which would modify the 

authorities and duties of the Director, TRMC, to review and 

report on significant expansion, divestment, consolidation or 

curtailment of activities within the test and evaluation 

facilities and resources of the Major Range and Test Facility 

Base.

Revision to the service requirement under the Science, 

Mathematics, and Research for Transformation defense education 

program (sec. 215)

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 221) that would 

modify the options for the service obligation requirement within 

the Science, Mathematics, and Research for Transformation 

(SMART) program to also include employment with a public or 

private sector entity or organization outside the Department of 

Defense (DOD), if the Secretary of Defense determines that the 

employment would provide a benefit to the Department of Defense 

(DOD).

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision.

The agreement includes the House provision with an 

amendment to clarify that the Secretary should make significant 

efforts to place SMART scholars into DOD positions, prior to 

placement in non-DOD positions.

Limitation on availability of funds for armored multi-purpose 

vehicle program (sec. 216)

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 212) that would 

limit the availability of funds for the armored multi-purpose 

vehicle until the Secretary of the Army submits a report on 

plans for the replacement of M113 armored personnel carriers in 

formations outside of its combat brigades.
22

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision.

The agreement includes the House provision.

Limitation on availability of funds for Unmanned CarrierLaunched Airborne Surveillance and Strike system (sec. 217)

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 213) that would 

prevent obligation of any Navy research and development funds 

for the Unmanned Carrier-Launched Airborne Surveillance and 

Strike (UCLASS) to award a contract for the air vehicle segment 

until the Secretary of Defense submits to the congressional

defense committees a report that: (1) certifies that a review 

of the requirements for air vehicle segments of the unmanned 

carrier-launched surveillance and strike system is complete; and 

(2) includes the results of such review.

The House report accompanying H.R. 4435 (H. Rept. 113-446) 

of the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2015 

indicated that the current UCLASS air vehicle segment 

requirements would not address the emerging anti-access/area 

denial (A2/AD) challenges to U.S. power projection that 

originally motivated creation of what became the Navy UCLASS 

program. In particular, the House report indicated that a 

disproportionate emphasis in the requirements on unrefueled 

endurance to enable continuous intelligence, surveillance, and 

reconnaissance (ISR) support to the carrier strike group (CSG), 

would result in an aircraft with too little survivability and 

too small an internal weapons payload capability. 

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision. 

The agreement includes this provision with an amendment 

that would require the Navy to submit a report with the budget 

for fiscal year 2017 that would:

(1) Identify the cost and performance trade-offs the 

Navy made in arriving at the set of requirements for the 

UCLASS air vehicle segment to include strike capability in 

an A2/AD environment;

(2) Address the derivation of requirements for the 

overall composition of the future carrier air wing, 

including any contribution to CSG ISR capability from noncarrier air wing forces, such as the MQ–4C Triton; 

(3) Specify how the Navy derived the plan for 

achieving the best mix of capabilities for the CSG air wing 

to conduct representative joint ISR-strike campaigns in the 

2030 timeframe, including how the UCLASS, F-35C, EA-18G, 

and the aircraft that is proposed to replace the F/A-18E/F 
23

(FA-XX) would contribute to overall capability, including 

in an A2/AD threat environment; 

(4) Define the UCLASS program’s acquisition 

strategy, and provide the justification for any tailoring 

of that strategy that deviates from that of a traditional 

program, consistent with DoDI 5000.02 policy; and

(5) Establish a formal acquisition program cost and 

schedule baseline, to allow the Navy to track unit costs, 

and provide regular reports to Congress on cost, schedule 

and performance progress. 

We believe that the Secretary of Defense may submit a 

report that certifies the current set of requirements and can 

proceed with the current program, or could decide to revisit the 

current UCLASS requirements and conduct another review of costs 

and capabilities. The Navy may have made an appropriate set of 

trade-offs between costs and capabilities in deriving a set of 

requirements for UCLASS, but those trade-offs should be 

evaluated in the context of the overall CSG capability, not on 

the basis of individual capabilities of weapons systems or an 

unconstrained budget. 

Limitation on Availability of Funds for airborne reconnaissance 

systems (sec. 218)

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 214) that would 

limit the obligation or expenditure of funds authorized by this 

Act to not more than 25 percent for the imaging and targeting 

support of airborne reconnaissance systems, until the Secretary 

of the Air Force delivers a report to the appropriate 

congressional committees. The elements of the report would 

include a detailed plan regarding the use of such funds for 

fiscal year 2015, and a strategic plan for the funding of 

advanced airborne reconnaissance technologies supporting manned 

and unmanned systems.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision.

The agreement includes the House provision with an 

amendment that would modify the reporting requirement for the 

use of funds for fiscal year 2015. 

We believe the plan should identify the activities and 

projects that the Air Force is investing in. We note the 

restriction on funds only applies to the funds for the imaging 

and targeting support project within Program Element 35206F. We 

believe the strategic plan should identify the broad objectives 

that the project should be focused on accomplishing over the 

course of the future year defense program, and may be provided 
24

to the appropriate Congressional committees in the form of a 

briefing. 

Limitation on availability of funds for retirement of Joint 

Surveillance and Target Attack Radar Systems aircraft (sec. 219)

The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision 

(sec. 213) that would that would prohibit the Air Force from 

retiring or preparing to retire operational Joint Surveillance 

and Target Attack Radar System (JSTARS) aircraft until the 

Secretary of the Air Force submits a report detailing various 

aspect of the Air Force’s plan to replace the current JSTARS 

aircraft, including an assessment of the cost and schedule of 

developing and fielding a new aircraft and radar system 

employing mature technology to replace the current JSTARS 

aircraft. 

The House bill contained no similar provision. 

The agreement includes the Senate provision with an 

amendment that would clarify that the assessment of cost and 

schedule of developing and fielding a new aircraft and radar 

system would be for a program that would deliver two replacement 

aircraft to the JSTARS aircraft operating base by fiscal year 

2019. 

SUBTITLE C—REPORTS

Reduction in frequency of reporting by Deputy Assistant 

Secretary of Defense for Systems Engineering (sec. 221)

The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision 

(sec. 222) that would reduce the reporting requirement related 

to the systems engineering activities of the Office of the 

Secretary of Defense. 

The House bill contained no similar provision.

The agreement includes this provision.

Independent assessment of interagency biodefense research and 

development (sec. 222)

A proposed amendment to the Senate committee-reported bill 

(amendment number 3435) contained a provision that would require 

a study of bureaucratic and policy barriers to the efficient 

execution of interagency research and development activities 

related to biodefense.

The House bill contained no similar provision.

The agreement includes this provision.
25

Briefing on modeling and simulation technological and industrial 

base in support of requirements of Department of Defense (sec. 

223)

A proposed amendment to the Senate committee-reported bill 

(amendment number 3848) contained a provision that would direct 

an independent study of the United States modeling and 

simulation industrial base.

The House bill contained no similar provision.

The agreement includes the Senate provision with an 

amendment that would require a briefing to the Committees on 

Armed Services of the Senate and House of Representatives that 

updates the report on the Department of Defense Modeling and 

Simulation (M&S) Technological and Industrial Base that was 

submitted to Congress on March 11, 2011. This report was 

required by section 1059 of the National Defense Authorization 

Act for Fiscal Year 2010 (Public Law 111-84) and describes 

current and planned efforts to support and enhance the defense 

M&S technological and industrial base.

SUBTITLE D—OTHER MATTERS

Modification to requirement for contractor cost-sharing in pilot 

program to include technology protection features during 

research and development of certain defense systems (sec. 231)

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 223) that would 

amend section 243(b) of the Ike Skelton National Defense 

Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2011 (Public Law 111-383) by 

striking “at least one half of the cost of such activities” and 

inserting “an appropriate share of the cost of such activities, 

as determined by the Secretary.”

The Senate committee-reported bill contained a similar 

provision (sec. 233).

The agreement includes the Senate provision.

Pilot program on assignment to Defense Advanced Research 

Projects Agency of private sector personnel with critical 

research and development expertise (sec. 232)

The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision 

(sec. 231) that would authorize the Director of the Defense 

Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) to carry out a pilot 

program to employ up to 5 individuals employed by the private 

sector on rotational assignments to lead research or development 

projects of the Agency.
26

The House bill contained no similar provision.

The agreement includes the Senate provision with an 

amendment that authorizes the pilot program with additional 

guidance to manage potential conflicts of interest that may 

arise during execution.

Pilot program on enhancement of preparation of dependents of 

members of Armed Forces for careers in science, technology, 

engineering, and mathematics (sec. 233)

The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision 

(sec. 222) that would authorize a pilot program to enhance the 

science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) 

educational opportunities for children of servicemembers.

The House bill contained no similar provision.

The agreement includes the Senate provision with an 

amendment to clarify the types of students, teachers, and 

classrooms on which the authorized activities may focus.

We believe there is a national security imperative to 

support the development of a strong, vibrant STEM workforce that 

can support Department of Defense (DOD) needs. A Council on 

Foreign Relations report from March 2012 titled “U.S. Education 

Reform and National Security”, states the U.S. “shortage of 

skilled human capital both inflates personnel costs and strains 

the military's ability to develop and deploy technologies that 

can deter sophisticated adversaries.” It further states, “Many 

U.S. generals caution that too many new enlistees cannot read 

training manuals for technologically sophisticated equipment. A 

former head of the Army's Training and Doctrine Command said 

that the lack of fully qualified young people was “an imminent 

and menacing threat to our national security.”

DOD has a critical requirement to maintain an experienced, 

high quality, technical workforce. To achieve this, it is 

necessary to engage at the earliest stages of the STEM pipeline. 

We note that some research indicates that achieving certain math 

skills by the eighth grade is a critical determinant for success 

in STEM fields. For that reason, the committee believes that it 

is important for DOD to support K-12 STEM education programs, as 

that supports an increased pipeline of qualified individuals 

that may pursue university degrees in STEM fields. Excellence 

in STEM fields is important for the general economic health and 

competitiveness of the nation, but due to the special security 

requirements of DOD employees, we believe that DOD’s STEM 

workforce needs are especially acute and will only continue to 

grow in the future.

Additionally, we note that DOD has a responsibility to 

ensure proper education is available to military children, and 
27

that it is in DOD’s interest to promote education programs that 

benefit both military children and our future national security 

workforce. We believe that this provision’s focus on the 

communities support for the children of military dependents also 

increases the likelihood that such STEM-enabled students will go 

on to national security careers, including military service. 

Sense of Congress on helicopter health and usage monitoring 

system of the Army (sec. 234)

A proposed amendment to the Senate committee-reported bill 

(amendment number 3567) contained a provision that would express 

the sense of the Senate on helicopter health and usage 

monitoring systems.

The House bill contained no similar provision.

The agreement includes the Senate provision with a 

technical amendment.

LEGISLATIVE PROVISIONS NOT ADOPTED

Preliminary design review of presidential aircraft 

recapitalization program

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 211) that would 

require the Secretary of the Air Force to complete a preliminary 

design review of the presidential aircraft recapitalization 

(PAR) program prior to receiving a milestone B approval from the 

Milestone Decision Authority. 

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision. 

The agreement does not include this provision.

We understand that the Air Force plans to develop the PAR 

acquisition strategy, complete milestone B documentation, 

continue market research, and develop the Systems Requirements 

Document through fiscal year 2015. We expect the Air Force to 

lockdown requirements prior to contract award to ensure the 

technical integrity of the PAR program prior to Milestone B and 

to minimize long-term program risks. 

Report on thermal injury prevention

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1068) that 

would require a report on prevention of thermal injuries to 

occupants of military vehicles that result from over matching 

ballistic threats.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision.
28

The agreement does not include this provision.

We are interested to learn how the Army is aggressively 

investigating innovative technologies to prevent or mitigate the 

risks of thermal injury to occupants of combat and tactical 

vehicles that can result from over matching ballistic threats. 

Accordingly, we direct the Secretary of the Army to provide, not 

later than March 31, 2015, a briefing to the Committees on Armed 

Services of the Senate and House of Representatives on the 

Army's related technology research and development plans and 

investment strategies for thermal injury prevention, as well as 

occupant centric survivability systems in current and future 

combat and tactical vehicles.

TITLE III—OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE

BUDGET ITEM

Special Operations Forces suicide prevention initiatives

The budget request included $67.0 million in Operation and 

Maintenance, defense-wide, to support the United States Special 

Operations Command (SOCOM) Preservation of the Force and 

Families (POTFF) program.

The House bill would transfer $23.3 million to the Defense 

Health Program’s SOCOM Behavioral Health and Warrior Care 

Management Program. 

The Senate committee-reported bill would approve the 

budget request.

The agreement includes a transfer of $14.8 million to the 

SOCOM Behavioral Health and Warrior Care Management Program for 

additional behavioral health programs and a transfer of $4.0 

million to the Defense Suicide Prevention Office to implement 

recommendations that result from a review of Department of 

Defense (DOD) efforts to prevent suicide among members of 

Special Operations Forces (SOF) and their families, as directed 

elsewhere in this Act. In addition, the agreement includes the 

full requested amount of $7.2 million for the Psychological 

Performance Program within POTFF.

We recognize the tremendous sacrifices made by the men and 

women within SOF and their families after more than 12 years of 

war. We note with concern that suicide rates for SOF have 

continued to increase since calendar year 2010, and that for the 

past 2 years, suicide rates within SOF have surpassed those of 

the military services.

We support the efforts of SOCOM to improve training and 

awareness related to suicide and plans to expand a pilot peer-
29

to-peer training program. We also support the many serviceprovided and DOD-wide suicide prevention programs that SOCOM has 

utilized. While DOD, SOCOM, and the services have taken 

positive action to address SOF suicide rates, we believe that 

more must be done to reinforce targeted suicide prevention 

efforts in addition to holistic SOF resiliency programs. 

SUBTITLE A—AUTHORIZATION OF APPROPRIATIONS

Authorization of appropriations (sec. 301)

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 301) 

authorizing appropriations for fiscal year 2015 for the use of

for operation and maintenance, as specified in the funding table 

in section 4301.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained a similar 

provision (sec. 301). 

The agreement includes the Senate provision.

SUBTITLE B—ENERGY AND ENVIRONMENT

Elimination of fiscal year limitation on prohibition of payment 

of fines and penalties from the Environmental Restoration 

Account, Defense (sec. 311)

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 311) that would 

eliminate the fiscal year limitations on the prohibition of 

paying fines and penalties from the Environmental Restoration 

Account, defense, unless the fine or penalty arose out of an 

activity funded by that account or was specifically authorized 

by law. 

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision. 

The agreement includes this provision.

Nothing in this provision should be construed to change 

the Department of Defense’s obligations to pay penalties or 

fines, and to do so in a timely fashion.

Method of funding for cooperative agreements under the Sikes Act 

(sec. 312)

The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision 

(sec. 311) that would amend subsection (b) of section 103a of 

the Sikes Act (section 670c-1 of title 16, United States Code) 
30

to allow for lump sum payments for cooperative agreements to 

cover the future costs of activities provided for under the 

agreements.

The House bill contained no similar provision.

The agreement includes the provision.

Report on prohibition of disposal of waste in open-air burn pits 

(sec. 313)

The House bill included a provision (Sec. 312) that would 

require the combatant commanders to submit a biannual 

certification to the Committees on Armed Services of the Senate 

and the House of Representatives that covered waste under the 

jurisdiction of the commander has not been disposed of in 

violation of the regulations set forth in section 317 of the 

National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2010 (Public 

Law 111-84). This section also prescribes additional details 

required in instances of noncompliance.

The Senate committee-reported bill did not contain a 

similar provision.

The agreement includes the House provision with an 

amendment to direct the Secretary of Defense to provide a report 

to the congressional defense committees regarding the Department 

of Defense’s (DOD) compliance with applicable Public Law and DOD 

instructions regarding the disposal of covered waste in burn 

pits. The provision also requires the Comptroller General of the 

United States to provide an assessment of the report submitted 

by the Secretary.

We note with concern that there are a number of instances 

where compliance with the DOD instructions and public law, with 

respect to the disposal of covered waste in burn pits, has been 

called into question. It is our expectation that the Secretary 

will use this report as an opportunity to address any gaps and 

take required action, as necessary and appropriate, to ensure 

education of and strict compliance with the prohibitions on the 

disposal of covered waste in burn pits. 

Business case analysis of any plan to design, refurbish, or 

construct a biofuel refinery (sec. 314)

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 317) that would 

require the Department of Defense to obtain a congressional 

authorization before entering into a contract for the planning, 

design, refurbishing, or construction of a biofuels refinery.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision.
31

The agreement includes the House provision with an 

amendment that no later than 30 days before entering into a 

contract for the planning, design, refurbishment, or 

construction of a biofuels refinery, the Secretary of Defense or 

service secretary concerned, shall submit to the congressional 

defense committees a business case analysis regarding their 

intended plan.

Environmental restoration at former Naval Air Station 

Chincoteague, Virginia (sec. 315)

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 320) that would 

permit the Secretary of Defense to undertake an environmental 

restoration project at Wallops Flight Facility, Virginia.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained a similar 

provision (sec. 312). 

The agreement includes the Senate provision with a 

clarifying amendment.

We note that the Wallops Flight Facility, Virginia 

includes the Naval Aviation Ordnance Test Station, Virginia. We 

also note that the Secretary of Defense may undertake this 

environmental restoration project at Wallops Flight Facility, 

Virginia, with regard to pollutants or contaminants that are 

solely attributable to Department of Defense activities while 

the property was under the administrative jurisdiction of the 

Secretary of the Navy.

Limitation on availability of funds for procurement of drop-in 

fuels (sec. 316)

The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision 

(sec. 313) that would prohibit Department of Defense (DOD) funds 

to be used for bulk purchases of drop-in fuel for operational 

purposes, unless the cost of that drop-in fuel is cost 

competitive with traditional fuel, subject to a national 

security waiver. 

The House bill contained no similar provision.

The agreement includes the Senate provision with a 

clarifying amendment that would factor in the fully-burdened 

cost of fuel.

We note that this provision adds a 30 day notice to the 

congressional defense committees prior to the purchase of bulk 

drop-in fuels for operational purposes, if the fully-burdened 

delivered cost is 10 percent over the fully-burdened market 

price of traditional fuels available for the same purpose. We 

also note that large-scale demonstrations count as operational 

purposes and are covered under this limitation. We expect DOD 
32

to not use a unique federal subsidy to buy or purchase down the 

cost of fuel so it falls below the 10 percent threshold.

Decontamination of a portion of former bombardment area on 

island of Culebra, Puerto Rico (sec. 317)

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 2818) that 

would express the sense of Congress that the statutory 

prohibition on environmental remediation on the island of 

Culebra, Puerto Rico is a unique anomaly and would lift the 

statutory restriction for environmental remediation for areas 

having regular public access by amending section 204(c) of the 

Military Construction Authorization Act of 1974 (Public Law 93-

166).

The Senate committee-reported bill contained a similar 

provision (sec. 316) that would express the sense of Congress 

that certain portions of the island of Culebra, Puerto Rico 

should be available for safe public recreational use and would 

lift the statutory restriction for environmental remediation for 

certain identified areas by amending section 204(c) of the 

Military Construction Authorization Act of 1974 (Public Law 93-

166), as well modifying the restrictions contained within the 

quitclaim deed.

The agreement includes the Senate provision. 

Alternative fuel automobiles (sec.318)

A proposed amendment to the Senate committee-reported bill 

(3911) contained a provision that would create incentives for 

the development of alternative dual-fuel vehicles.

The House bill contained no similar provision.

The agreement includes the Senate provision with modifying 

amendments.

SUBTITLE C—LOGISTICS AND SUSTAINMENT

Modification of quarterly readiness reporting requirement (sec. 

321)

The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision 

(sec. 322) that would amend section 482 of title 10, United 

States Code, to update and streamline the Quarterly Readiness 

Report to Congress (QRRC).

The House bill contained no similar provision.

The agreement includes the Senate provision with a 

clarifying amendment.
33

We expect the timeliness and delivery of the QRRC to 

Congress to improve significantly given the efficiencies 

included in the bill. We note that the executive summaries and 

narratives – which are derived from the massive data inputs 

submitted by the military services, defense agencies, and 

combatant commands - currently captured in the QRRC are very 

helpful in the exercise of congressional oversight 

responsibilities.

We strongly urge the Department of Defense (DOD) to move 

the information captured in Supplement Two of the QRRC to Annex 

B in order to avoid duplication and maximize efficiency. We 

also strongly urge DOD to remove Supplement One from future 

QRRCs as the information therein is readily available in the 

public domain.

Additional requirement for strategic policy on prepositioning of 

materiel and equipment (sec. 322)

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 321) that would 

amend the strategic policy on prepositioned materiel and 

equipment required by section 2229(a) of title 10, United States 

Code, to ensure newly established crisis response elements are 

considered when developing goals, assessing challenges, and 

synchronizing requirements.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision.

The agreement includes this provision.

Elimination of authority of Secretary of the Army to abolish 

arsenals (sec. 323)

The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision 

(sec. 323) that would amend section 4532 of title 10, United 

States Code, the Arsenal Act, and eliminate the ability of the 

Secretary of the Army to abolish any U.S. arsenal considered to 

be unnecessary.

The House bill contained no similar provision.

The agreement includes the Senate provision with an 

amendment that would eliminate the ability of the Secretary of 

the Army to abolish any U.S. arsenal considered to be 

unnecessary.

We note that it shall be the goal of the Secretary of the 

Army, in managing the workload of the arsenals, to maintain 

critical capabilities and ensure cost efficiency and technical 

competence in peacetime, while preserving the ability to provide 

an effective and timely response to mobilizations, national 

defense contingency situations, and other emergent requirements.
34

We also note that the critical capabilities needed by the 

Army are currently reflected in the Report to Congress on 

Critical Manufacturing Capabilities and Capacities dated August 

2013. We recognize that they may change over time.

Modification of annual reporting requirement related to 

prepositioning of materiel and equipment (sec. 324)

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 322) that would 

modify the yearly reporting requirement in section 321 of the 

National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2014 (Public 

Law 113-66) to continue through 2017, for a total of four 

reports over 4 years.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained a similar 

provision (sec. 321) that would amend section 2229(cc) of title 

10, United States Code to sunset after 3 years the Comptroller 

General of the United States’ annual review of the Department of 

Defense’s progress in implementing its strategic policy and plan 

for its prepositioned stocks.

The agreement includes the Senate provision.

SUBTITLE D—REPORTS

Repeal of annual report on Department of Defense operation and 

financial support for military museums (sec. 331)

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 331) that would 

repeal section 489 of title 10, United States Code, which 

requires the Secretary of Defense to submit annually to Congress 

a report on Department of Defense operation and financial 

support for military museums.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained an identical 

provision (sec. 331).

The agreement includes this provision.

Army assessment of regionally aligned forces (sec. 332)

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 333) that would 

require the Secretary of the Army to submit a report on the 

activities, lessons learned, and future plans for regionally 

aligned forces.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision.

The agreement includes the House provision with an 

amendment that would clarify the required elements of the 

report.
35

SUBTITLE E—LIMITATIONS AND EXTENSIONS OF 

AUTHORITY

Limitation on authority to enter into a contract for the 

sustainment, maintenance, repair, or overhaul of the F117 engine 

(sec. 341)

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 341) that would 

prevent the Secretary of the Air Force from entering into a 

subsequent contract for the sustainment, maintenance, repair, 

and overhaul of the F117 engine until the Under Secretary of 

Defense for Acquisition, Technology and Logistics certifies to 

the congressional defense committees that the Secretary of the 

Air Force has structured the contract in such a way that 

provides the Secretary required insight into all aspects of F117 

component and subcomponent historical usage, cost, service-life, 

and supply chain management data sufficient to determine that 

the Secretary is paying a fair and reasonable price for F117 

sustainment as compared to the PW2000 commercial-derivative 

sustainment price in the private sector. This provision would 

also allow the Secretary to waive this limitation if the 

Secretary determines such waiver is in the interests of national 

security.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision. 

The agreement includes this provision with an amendment 

that would modify the basis upon which the Under Secretary would 

certify that the Secretary of the Air Force has obtained data 

sufficient to determine that the Secretary of the Air Force is 

paying a fair and reasonable price for F117 sustainment, 

maintenance, repair, or overhaul as compared to the PW2000 

commercial-derivative engine sustainment price for sustainment, 

maintenance, repair, or overhaul in the private sector. 

Limitation on establishment of regional Special Operations 

Forces Coordination Centers (sec. 342)

The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision 

(sec. 342) that would prohibit the obligation or expenditure of 

funds authorized for fiscal year 2015 to establish Regional 

Special Operations Forces Coordination Centers (RSCC) by U.S. 

Special Operations Command (SOCOM).

The House bill contained no similar provision.

The agreement includes this provision.

We note that the National Defense Authorization Act for 

Fiscal Year 2014 (Public Law 113-66) included a similar 
36

prohibition and required the Secretary of Defense, in 

coordination with the Secretary of State, to submit a report on 

the purpose, cost, and the authorities necessary for the 

establishment of RSCCs. While the required report was submitted 

on April 16, 2014, it left a number of questions unanswered 

related to the long-term funding required to support RSCCs in 

each geographic combatant command (GCC); the relative funding 

that would be provided by SOCOM, the GCCs, and the host nation 

or other participating nations; and coordination with other 

engagement activities conducted by the GCCs and the Department 

of State. Additionally, the report states that “[p]roviding 

confirmed and sustained out-year support is critical to 

realizing the full potential of an RSCC.” However, the report 

also identifies additional legislative authorities that would 

need to be addressed for such “confirmed and sustained” support 

to occur while indicating “there are currently no plans to seek 

these additional authorities.”

We believe issues related to funding and authorities need 

to be resolved before RSCCs are established. We also believe 

that SOCOM should focus its efforts and resources on supporting 

regional special operations engagement activities that are 

hosted in and led by partner nations. For example, we 

understand that Colombia is working to establish the Centro 

Regional de Estudios Avanzados de Seguridad (CREAS), that will, 

among other things, bring together regional special operations 

forces for educational, training, and other events. We note 

that the provision described above would not prohibit support to 

host-nation established regional special operations coordination 

activities, like CREAS, provided they are consistent with 

broader military-to-military objectives and coordinated with the 

Department of State and relevant country teams.

Limitation on transfer of MC-12 aircraft to United States 

Special Operations Command (sec. 343)

The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision 

(sec. 341) that would prohibit the transfer of MC-12 aircraft 

from the Air Force to U.S. Special Operations Command (SOCOM) 

for manned intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance until 

the Assistant Secretary of Defense for Special Operations and 

Low-Intensity Conflict, in coordination with the Commander, 

SOCOM, provides the congressional defense committees with an 

analysis and justification for such a transfer. 

The House bill contained no similar provision.

The agreement includes the Senate provision with a 

clarifying amendment.
37

We note that elsewhere in this Act the Department of 

Defense is provided the authority to use the Counterterrorism 

Partnership Fund (CTPF) to enhance counterterrorism activities 

undertaken by the U.S. Armed Forces, including government-owned, 

contractor-operated (GOCO) capabilities. We believe that the 

CTPF would be an appropriate source of funding to support 

additional GOCO operation of MC-12 aircraft in direct support of 

the intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance requirements 

of U.S. Special Operations Forces.

Further, we note that the budget request included funding 

in Operation and Maintenance, defense-wide and Procurement, 

defense-wide to support up to 13 aircraft to be flown by the Air 

National Guard in support of SOCOM aviation foreign internal 

defense and intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance 

missions. We note that the limitation included in this 

provision and the reduction in funding for MC-12 modifications 

contained elsewhere in the bill do not apply to up to 13 

aircraft to be flown by the Air National Guard in support of 

SOCOM.

SUBTITLE F—OTHER MATTERS

Clarification of authority relating to provision of 

installation-support services through intergovernmental support 

agreements (sec. 351)

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 351) that would 

transfer and redesignate section 2336 of title 10, United States 

Code, to chapter 159 of such title. This section would also 

define an intergovernmental support agreement and provide other 

technical changes. 

A proposed amendment to the Senate committee-reported bill 

(amendment number 3831) contained a similar provision.

The agreement includes the House provision with an 

amendment that would make clear that the secretary concerned may 

enter into an intergovernmental support agreement 

notwithstanding any other provision of law governing the award 

of federal government contracts for goods and services and that 

any contract awarded by the Federal Government or a state or 

local government for installation-support services under an 

intergovernmental support agreement must be awarded on a 

competitive basis. 

Management of conventional ammunition inventory (sec. 352)

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 353) that would 

designate an authoritative database on conventional ammunition 
38

and broaden the existing military service annual reporting 

requirements on conventional ammunition.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained a similar 

provision (sec. 1066) that would require the Comptroller General 

of the United States to provide a briefing to the congressional 

defense committees on the management of the conventional 

ammunition demilitarization stockpile of the Department of 

Defense (DOD) no later than April 30, 2015.

The agreement includes the House provision with an 

amendment that would combine the two provisions.

We note that the preferred authoritative source of data 

for tracking conventional ammunition inventories across DOD is 

the National Level Ammunition Capability (NLAC). We also expect 

DOD to issue guidance that ensures NLAC collects and is 

responsible for disseminating accurate data in cooperation with 

other service ammunition systems.

LEGISLATIVE PROVISIONS NOT ADOPTED

Increase in funding for civil military programs

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 302) that would 

increase funding for civil military programs by $55.0 million 

over the budget request.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision.

The agreement does not include this provision.

Exclusions from definition of ‘chemical substance’ under Toxic 

Substances Control Act and report on lead ammunition

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 313) that would 

amend section 3(2)(B)(v) of the Toxic Substances Control Act (15 

U.S.C. 2602(2)(B)(v)) and require a report on costs related to 

non-lead alternatives for small arms.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision. 

The agreement does not include this provision.

Exemption of Department of Defense from alternative fuel 

procurement requirement

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 314) that would 

amend section 526 of the Energy Independence and Security Act of 

2007 (P.L. 110-140) to exempt the Department of Defense from the 

requirements related to contracts for alternative or synthetic 

fuel in that section.
39

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision.

The agreement does not include the House provision.

Study on implementation of requirements for consideration of 

fuel logistics support requirements in planning, requirements 

development, and acquisition processes

The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision 

(sec. 314) that would require the Secretary of Defense to submit 

a report to the congressional defense committees no later than 

180 days after the enactment of this Act, on the implementation 

of section 332 of the Duncan Hunter National Defense 

Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2009 (P.L. 110-417).

The House bill contained no similar provision.

The agreement does not include the Senate provision.

We direct the Secretary of Defense to submit a report to 

the congressional defense committees, no later than 180 days 

after the enactment of this Act, regarding how the Department of 

Defense (DOD) is considering the operational impact of energy 

logistics through energy supportability analysis, including but 

not limited to those factors in section 332 of the Duncan Hunter 

National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2009 (P.L. 

110-417).

We note that the report shall describe actions to date to 

consider energy logistics support in the planning, requirements 

development, and acquisition processes, including the following 

elements: (1) A description of the process DOD is using to 

ensure energy supportability has been analyzed and considered 

during the requirements development and acquisition process; (2) 

An assessment of how well the Services are implementing the 

energy supportability analysis; (3) An assessment of how well 

the Services have incorporated energy into their planning 

processes; (4) An assessment of the extent to which the energy 

security requirements of DOD are enhanced by incorporation of 

section 332 in the requirements and acquisition processes; and 

(5) recommendations for improvements to section 332 that would 

enhance energy security and capability.

Comptroller General study of Department of Defense research and 

development projects and investments to increase energy security 

and meet energy goals requirements

The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision 

(sec. 315) that would direct the Comptroller General of the 

United States to conduct a review of Department of Defense (DOD) 
40

research and development projects and investments to increase 

energy security and meet renewable energy goals.

The House bill contained no similar provision.

The agreement does not include the provision.

We direct the Comptroller General to conduct a review of 

the current DOD Annual Energy Management Report. At a minimum, 

the review shall identify key gaps and shortfalls, if any, in 

the report. The review shall also include a determination of 

how the DOD has determined the costs and benefits of a sample of 

five renewable energy projects per Service where the (1) 

generating capacity of the projects is over one megawatt; (2) 

projected life cycle costs of the projects as compared to power 

generation from conventional sources; and (3) ensured energy 

security at energy-remote installations in the 50 states and the 

District of Columbia. The term “energy-remote military 

installations” means military installations not connected to an 

extensive electrical grid. The Comptroller General shall report 

to the congressional defense committees no later than one year 

after enactment of this Act.

Congressional notice of bulk purchase of alternative fuels for 

operational use

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 315) that would 

require the Secretary of Defense to notify the congressional 

defense committees 60 days before the bulk purchase of 

alternative fuels intended for operational use.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision.

The agreement does not include the House provision.

Limitation on procurement of biofuels

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 316) that would 

limit the Department of Defense’s ability to purchase or produce 

biofuels until the earlier of either the date on which the 

Budget Control Act of 2011 (P.L. 112-25) is no longer in effect, 

or the date on which the cost of biofuel is equal to the cost of 

conventional fuels. This section would provide an exception for 

biofuel test and certification and research and development.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision.

The agreement does not include the House provision.

Off-installation Department of Defense natural resources 

projects compliance with integrated natural resource management 

plans
41

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 318) that would 

amend the Sikes Act (section 670c-1 of title 16, United States 

Code) to require that funds for the maintenance and improvement 

of natural resources located off of a military installation or 

State-owned National Guard installation only be used pursuant to 

an approved integrated natural resources management plan.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision. 

The agreement does not include this provision. 

Recommendation on Air Force energy conservation measures

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 319) that would 

recommend the Secretary of the Air Force take action on energy 

conservation measures.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision.

The agreement does not include this provision.

We note that the Air Force has undertaken a number of 

initiatives aimed at improving installation energy efficiency. 

For example, the Air Force has used the Energy Conservation 

Investment Program, Energy Savings Performance Contracts, and 

technologies developed through Installation Energy Test Bed to 

help meet their facility energy goals and mandates. We 

encourage the Air Force to continue to make cost-effective 

investments that enhance combat capability and demonstrate a 

return on investment.

Prohibition on use of funds to implement certain climate change 

assessments and reports

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 320A) that 

would prohibit funds authorized by the fiscal year 2015 National 

Defense Authorization Act to be used to implement the United 

States Global Change Research Program National Climate 

Assessment, the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change’s 

Fifth Assessment Report, the United Nation’s Agenda 21 

sustainable development plan, or the May 2013 Technical Update 

of the Social Cost of Carbon for Regulatory Impact Analysis 

Under Executive Order No. 12866.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision. 

The agreement does not include this provision.

Report on enduring requirements and activities currently funded 

through amounts authorized to be appropriated for Overseas 

Contingency Operations
42

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 332) that would 

require a report on enduring requirements and activities 

currently funded through amounts authorized to be appropriated 

for Overseas Contingency Operations.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision.

The agreement does not include this provision.

Report on impacts of funding reductions on military readiness

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 334) that would 

require the Secretary of Defense (Comptroller) to report to the 

congressional defense committees the readiness and cost impacts 

of the reductions in operation and maintenance funding.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision.

The agreement does not include the House provision.

We direct the Under Secretary of Defense (Comptroller) to 

report or present a briefing to the congressional defense 

committees no later than 60 days after the date of enactment of 

this Act, on the readiness and cost impacts, both immediate and 

long-term, for the military services, the Office of the 

Secretary of Defense, the Joint Chiefs of Staff, and the Defense 

Agencies, of the reductions in funding required in section 4301 

of this Act. The report shall include, but isn’t limited to, 

reductions in contracts for other services, impacts to training 

and operations, contracts for facility sustainment, restoration, 

and modernization, base operations, and any other mission 

execution and effectiveness concerns.

Limitation on furlough of certain working-capital fund employees

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 342) that 

would: limit the non-disciplinary furlough of working-capital 

fund (WCF) employees as long as funds are available to pay for 

the work performed; require 45 days advance congressional 

notification of furloughs; and require Secretarial certification 

that workload will not be transferred to any other sector of the 

workforce.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision.

The agreement does not include this provision.

We remain concerned about the negative effect furloughs of 

WCF employees have on military readiness. The furlough of WCF 

employees when monies and workload are available only delays 

delivery times and raises rates, costing the taxpayer and 

reducing military readiness. We understand that the Department 
43

of Defense (DOD) faced budget cuts of $37.0 billion in 2013 due 

to sequestration, and that as part of its response, it 

furloughed all civilian employees. These furloughs may have 

increased costs over the longer-term and caused schedule delays, 

which negatively affected readiness. Therefore, we urge the 

Secretary of Defense to consider both the short- and long-term 

readiness impacts of these furloughs in making management 

decisions concerning the DOD workforce. Finally, we expect the 

Secretary to manage future budgets carefully, and to weigh all 

competing variables when making workforce decisions.

Revised policy on ground combat and camouflage utility uniforms

The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision 

(sec. 352) that would amend section 352 of the National Defense 

Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2014 (P.L. 113-66) that 

established a policy that the Secretary of Defense shall 

eliminate the development and fielding of Armed Forces-specific 

combat and camouflage utility uniforms and families of uniforms 

for specific combat environments to be used by all members of 

the Armed Forces.

The House bill contained no similar provision.

The agreement does not include the Senate provision.

We note that the guidance for the military services and 

combatant commands required by section 351 of the National 

Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2014 (P.L. 113-66) to 

implement this policy is late and has not yet been delivered. 

We also note that the implementation plan is also late and 

necessary to ensure proper implementation of the Department of 

Defense’s guidance to establish and publish joint combat uniform 

standards and performance criteria.

Sense of Congress on access to training ranges within United 

States Pacific Command area of responsibility

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 352) that would 

express the sense of Congress regarding access to training 

ranges within U.S. Pacific Command's (PACOM) area of 

responsibility (AOR).

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision.

The agreement does not include the provision.

We note that access to military training ranges is an 

essential component of military readiness and that such access 

is critical to maintaining the technical and operational 

superiority of the Armed Forces. The 2014 Quadrennial Defense 

Review states that United States forces in the Asia-Pacific 
44

region “will resume regular bilateral and multilateral training 

exercises, pursue increased training opportunities to improve 

capabilities and capacity of partner nations, as well as support 

humanitarian, disaster relief, counterterrorism, and other 

operations that contribute to the stability of the region.” 

While training ranges exist within PACOM’s AOR, we note that the 

tyranny of distance in the Asia-Pacific region presents a number 

of challenges, including the transportation of equipment and 

personnel to the various training ranges. We believe the 

Department of Defense should take appropriate action to ensure 

that members of the Armed Forces continue to have reliable 

access to military training ranges and take appropriate steps to 

improve accessibility to military training areas within PACOM’s 

AOR.

Southern sea otter military readiness areas

The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision 

(sec. 353) that would have created southern sea otter military 

readiness areas and repealed Public Law 99–625 (16 U.S.C. 1536 

note).

The House bill contained no similar provision.

The agreement does not include this provision. 

TITLE IV—MILITARY PERSONNEL AUTHORIZATIONS

SUBTITLE A—ACTIVE FORCES

End strengths for active forces (sec. 401)

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 401) that would

assessing the mental, behavioral, and psychological health 

challenges facing members of the U.S. military and we believe 

such organizations may be able to provide valuable contributions 

to the assessment directed by this provision.

The House bill contained no similar provision.

The agreement does not include this provision.

We believe that it is good practice to review command 

climate surveys of the units of the victim and of the suspect

that the command climate is conducive to caring for the victim, 

and the climate of the unit of the suspect should be reviewed to 

determine whether the command climate contributed to the alleged 

sexual assault.

recognize the dedicated service and ultimate sacrifice on behalf 

of the United States of the 11 African-American soldiers of the

85

TITLE VI—COMPENSATION AND OTHER PERSONNEL 

BENEFITS

SUBTITLE A—PAY AND ALLOWANCES

No fiscal year 2015 increase in basic pay for general and flag 

officers (sec. 601)

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 602) that would 

freeze the monthly basic pay for all general and flag officers, 

including for those whose monthly basic pay is limited to the 

rate of pay for level II of the Executive Schedule.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained a similar 

provision (sec. 601(c)).

The agreement includes the House provision with a 

technical amendment.

Extension of authority to provide temporary increase in rates of 

basic allowance for housing under certain circumstances (sec. 

602)

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 601) that would 

extend for 1 year the authority of the Secretary of Defense to 

temporarily increase the rate of basic allowance for housing in 

areas impacted by natural disasters or experiencing a sudden 

influx of personnel.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained an identical 

provision (sec. 604).

The agreement includes this provision.

Inclusion of Chief of the National Guard Bureau and Senior 

Enlisted Advisor to the Chief of the National Guard Bureau among 

senior members of the Armed Forces for purposes of pay and 

allowances (sec. 603)

The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision (sec. 

602) that would provide pay parity for the Chief of the National 

Guard Bureau with the other members of the Joint Chiefs of 

Staff. The provision would also provide pay parity for the 

senior enlisted advisor to the Chief of the National Guard 

Bureau with the senior enlisted advisors of the Armed Forces. 

The changes made by this provision would be prospective to the

date of enactment of this Act.

The House bill contained no similar provision.

The agreement includes this provision.
86

Modification of computation of basic allowance for housing 

inside the United States (sec. 604)

The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision 

(sec. 603) that would amend section 403(b) of title 37, United 

States Code, to revise the method by which the monthly amount of 

the basic allowance for housing (BAH) is determined by 

authorizing the Secretary of Defense to reduce the monthly 

amount by up to 5 percent of the national average for housing 

for a given pay grade and dependency status.

The House bill contained no similar provision.

The agreement includes the Senate provision with an 

amendment that would authorize the Secretary to reduce the 

monthly amount of BAH by up to 1 percent of the national average 

for housing for a given pay grade and dependency status. 

Servicemembers would not see any reduction in their BAH until 

they undergo a permanent change of duty station. This provision 

would not apply to veterans benefits paid under title 38, United 

States Code. This provision would require the Secretary of 

Veterans Affairs to pay the appropriate veterans benefits under 

title 38, United States Code, as the Secretary would otherwise 

have issued those benefits without regard to changes made to the 

BAH under this section.

We note that while the Department of Defense (DOD) 

legislative proposal included proposed changes to BAH that would 

have been implemented over the next 3 years, this agreement 

includes those changes to BAH that the committees understand 

would have been implemented by DOD in 2015. By adopting changes 

to BAH beginning in the first year of the proposal, the 

agreement preserves the option for Congress to achieve the full 

savings requested by DOD. 

This approach does not constitute a rejection of the 

administration proposal, which was endorsed by the Joint Chiefs 

of Staff. Rather, consideration of further changes to BAH in 

fiscal years 2016, 2017, and beyond is deferred until after the 

committees receive the report of the Military Compensation and 

Retirement Modernization Commission, which is due in February 

2015. The two committees commit to consider proposed changes to 

BAH that are included in the fiscal year 2016 budget request as 

part of the consideration of the National Defense Authorization 

Act for Fiscal Year 2016. 

We note that if sequestration-level budgets remain in 

effect for fiscal year 2016 and beyond, DOD will need to make 

painful cuts and achieve substantial savings across its entire 

budget in order to avoid an unacceptable reduction in readiness 

of the Armed Forces of the United States. The Chiefs have 
87

urged us to take all action necessary, including compensation 

adjustments, to avoid such readiness impacts.

The Committees on Armed Services of the Senate and the 

House of Representatives intend to work with the Committees on 

Veterans' Affairs of the Senate and the House of Representatives 

next year in an effort to harmonize BAH rates paid by the

Department of Defense and by the Department of Veterans' 

Affairs.

provision (sec. 613).

special bonus and incentive pay authorities for officers in 

health professions, and the contracting bonus for cadets and 

midshipmen enrolled in the Senior Officers’ Training Corps. The 

provision would also extend for 1 year the authority to pay 

hazardous duty pay, assignment or special duty pay, skill 

incentive pay or proficiency bonus, and retention incentives for 

members qualified in critical military skills or assigned to 

high priority units.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained a similar 

provision (sec. 614) that did not include the extension of the 

contracting bonus for cadets and midshipmen as that extension 

was contained elsewhere in the Senate committee-reported bill.

bonus for active members, the enlistment bonus, the foreign 

language proficiency incentive pay for certain members of 

precommissioning programs, the accession bonus for new officers

SUBTITLE C—DISABILITY PAY, RETIRED PAY, AND 

SURVIVOR BENEFITS

Earlier determination of dependent status with respect to 

transitional compensation for dependents of certain members 

separated for dependent abuse (sec. 621)

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 545) that would 

amend section 1059 of title 10, United States Code, to clarify 

that the date on which a dependent child’s status is determined 

for the purposes of transitional compensation under that 

section, in the case of a member being administratively 

separated, is the date on which the separation action is 

commenced. This aligns the dependent status determination with 

the date on which transitional compensation payments begin under 

that section in these cases.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained a similar 

provision (sec. 624).

The agreement includes the Senate provision.

Modification of determination of retired pay base for officers 

retired in general and flag officer grades (sec. 622)

The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision 

(sec. 622) that would amend section 1407a of title 10, United 

States Code, to reinstate the cap on retired pay of general and 

flag officers at the monthly equivalent of level II of the 

Executive Schedule, as otherwise provided for in section 

203(a)(2) of title 37, United States Code. The provision would 

ensure the equitable treatment of the service of general and

The agreement includes the Senate provision with numerous 

technical amendments and an amendment to ensure equitable

The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision 

(sec. 621) that would amend subparagraph (G) of section

reduced cost of living adjustment (COLA) applicable to military 

retired pay made by section 403 of the Bipartisan Budget Act of 

2013 (Public Law 113-67), as amended by section 2 of Public Law 

113-82. Under current law, this reduced COLA is inapplicable to 

members who first join prior to January 1, 2014.

The House bill contained no similar provision.

The agreement includes this provision with a technical 

amendment.

Survivor Benefit Plan annuities for special needs trusts 

established for the benefit of dependent children incapable of

dependent child incapable of self-support because of mental or 

physical incapacity.

The House bill contained no similar provision.

The agreement includes this provision with a technical 

amendment.

The report required on page 584 of the Joint Explanatory 

Statement accompanying the National Defense Authorization Act 

for Fiscal Year 2014 (Public Law 113-66) is no longer required.

Modification of per-fiscal year calculation of days of certain 

active duty or active service to reduce eligibility age for 

retirement for non-regular service (sec. 625)

The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision 

(sec. 623) that would amend section 12731(f)(2)(A) of title 10, 
91

United States Code, to clarify that qualifying days of service 

under that section to reduce the age at which a servicemember 

may receive reserve retired pay may be accumulated between 2 

consecutive fiscal years, effective after the date of enactment 

of this Act.

The House bill contained no similar provision.

The agreement includes this provision with an amendment 

that would apply the change in law to service performed after 

September 30, 2014.

SUBTITLE D—COMMISSARY AND NONAPPROPRIATED 

FUND INSTRUMENTALITY BENEFITS AND 

OPERATIONS

Procurement of brand-name and other commercial items for resale 

by commissary stores (sec. 631)

The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision 

(sec. 631) that would amend section 2484 of title 10, United 

States Code, to authorize the Secretary of Defense to purchase 

any commercial item, including brand-name and generic items, for 

resale in, at, or by commissary stores without using full and 

open competition procurement procedures.

The House bill contained no similar provision.

into contracts with other Federal agencies and instrumentalities 

to provide and obtain certain goods and services (sec. 632)

section 2492 of title 10, United States Code, to provide the 

Department of Defense (DOD) authority to provide or obtain food 

services beneficial to the efficient management and operation of 

the dining facilities on military installations offering food 

services to servicemembers.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision. 

The agreement includes the House provision.

This change to section 2942 of title 10 and the 

implementation of the food transformation program should not 

result in the loss of employment pursuant to the Javits-WagnerO’Day Act (41 U.S.C. 8501 et seq.).

However, we are concerned with the lack of regulatory 

guidance on the application of the Javits-Wagner-O’Day Act (41 
92

U.S.C. 8501 et seq.) and Randolph-Sheppard Act (20 U.S.C. 107 et 

seq.) to military dining facilities. We previously sought to 

resolve this long-standing issue by requiring a Joint Policy 

Statement in section 848 of Public Law 109-163 and enacting a 

permanent “no-poaching” provision in section 856 of Public Law 

109-364. However, without complementary regulations to implement 

the Joint Policy Statement, confusion remains on when to apply 

the two acts, particularly with regard to new contracts that are 

not covered by section 856 of Public Law 109-364. 

Pursuant to the Joint Policy Statement, the RandolphSheppard Act applies to contracts for the operation of a 

military dining facility, or full food services, and the JavitsWagner-O’Day Act applies to contracts and subcontracts for 

dining support services, or dining facility attendant services, 

for the operation of a military dining facility. 

Not later than 180 days after the date of the enactment of 

this Act, the Secretary of Defense shall prescribe implementing 

regulations for the application of the two acts to military 

dining facilities. Such regulations shall implement the Joint 

Policy Statement and specifically address DOD contracts that are 

not covered by section 856 of Public Law 109-364.

Competitive pricing of legal consumer tobacco products sold in 

Department of Defense retail stores (sec. 633)

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 633) that would 

prohibit the Secretary of Defense and the service secretaries 

from taking any action to implement any new policy that would 

limit, restrict, or ban the sale of any legal consumer product 

category sold as of January 1, 2014, in the defense commissary 

system or exchange stores system on any military installation, 

domestically or overseas, or on any Department of Defense vessel 

at sea.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision.

The agreement includes the House provision with an 

amendment that would require the Secretary of Defense to issue 

regulations regarding the pricing of tobacco and tobacco-related 

products sold in an outlet of the defense retail systems inside 

the United States, including territories and possessions of the 

United States, to prohibit the sale of a product at a price 

below the most competitive price for that product in the local 

community. The provision would also require the regulations to 

direct that the price of these products sold in an outlet of the 

defense retail systems outside of the United States shall be

within the range of prices established for the product in 

outlets of the defense retail systems inside the United States.
93

Review of management, food, and pricing options for defense 

commissary system (sec. 634)

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 632) that would 

require the Secretary of Defense to conduct a review, utilizing 

the services of an independent organization experienced in 

grocery retail analysis, of the defense commissary system. The 

provision would also require the Secretary of Defense to submit 

to the Committees on Armed Services of the Senate and the House 

of Representatives a report containing the results of the review 

not later than February 1, 2015.

A proposed amendment to the Senate committee-reported bill 

(amendment number 3866) contained a provision that would require 

the Secretary of Defense, not later than 90 days after the date 

of the enactment of this Act, to submit to the congressional 

defense committees a report on the impact that eliminating or 

reducing the commissary subsidy would have on eligible 

beneficiaries.

The agreement includes the House provision with an 

amendment that would require the Secretary of Defense to conduct 

a review, utilizing the services of an independent organization 

experienced in grocery retail analysis, of the defense 

commissary system to include the impact that eliminating or 

reducing the commissary subsidy would have on eligible 

beneficiaries. The amendment would also require the Secretary 

of Defense to submit to the Committees on Armed Services of the 

Senate and the House of Representatives a report containing the 

results of the review not later than September 1, 2015.

LEGISLATIVE PROVISIONS NOT ADOPTED

Fiscal year 2015 increase in military basic pay

The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision 

(sec. 601(a) and (b)) that would authorize an across-the-board 

pay raise for members of the uniformed services of 1 percent 

effective January 1, 2015.

The agreement does not include this provision.

We note that the President has exercised his authority 

under section 1009(e) of title 37, United States Code, to 

implement an alternative across-the-board pay raise for members 

of the uniformed services for calendar year 2015 of 1 percent 

rather than the 1.8 percent that would otherwise be required 

under subsection (a) of section 1009.
94

disabilities rated as total.

require the Secretary of Defense to carry out an anonymous 

survey of random servicemembers regarding military pay and 

benefits.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision.

The agreement does not include this provision.

memorial headstones and markers for members of reserve 

components who performed certain training
95

require the Secretary of Veterans Affairs to make memorial 

headstones and markers available for purchase by members of 

reserve components who performed certain training.

TITLE VII—HEALTH CARE PROVISIONS

SUBTITLE A—TRICARE AND OTHER HEALTH CARE 

BENEFITS

Mental health assessments for members of the Armed Forces (sec. 

701)

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 701) that would 

amend section 1074m of title 10, United States Code, to require 

the Secretary of Defense to provide person-to-person mental 

health screenings once during each 180-day period in which a 

servicemember is deployed. 

The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision 

(sec. 701) that would require the Secretary to provide a personto-person mental health assessment for Active Duty and Selected 

Reserve members each year. The Secretary may provide such 

assessments in conjunction with annual periodic health 

assessments or pre- or post-deployment health assessments. In 

addition, the provision would require the Secretary to submit an 

annual report on the tools and processes used to provide the 

assessments.

The agreement includes the Senate provision with an 

amendment that would require the Secretary to provide a personto-person mental health assessment for Active Duty and Selected 

Reserve members each year (such assessments may be provided in 

conjunction with annual periodic health assessments or pre- or 

post-deployment health assessments) and to submit a report to 

the Committees on Armed Services of the Senate and the House of 

Representatives on the tools and processes used to provide the 

assessments. The amendment would also require the Secretary, 

through 2018, to provide person-to-person mental health 

screenings once during each 180-day period in which a member is 

deployed.

Modifications of cost-sharing and other requirements for the 

TRICARE Pharmacy Benefits Program (sec. 702)
96

The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision 

(sec. 702) that would amend section 1074g of title 10, United 

States Code, to modify the TRICARE pharmacy benefits program by 

specifying that non-formulary prescriptions would be available 

through the national mail-order pharmacy program, establishing 

prescription copayments from 2015 through 2024, and requiring 

that non-generic prescription maintenance medications be 

refilled through military treatment facility pharmacies or the 

national mail-order pharmacy program.

The House bill contained no similar provision.

The agreement includes the Senate provision with an 

amendment that would make the provision specifying that nonformulary prescriptions would be available through the national 

mail-order pharmacy program and the provision requiring that 

non-generic prescription maintenance medications be refilled 

through military treatment facility pharmacies or the national 

mail-order pharmacy program beginning on October 1, 2015. The 

agreement also modifies prescription copayments beginning in 

2015.

We note that while the Department of Defense (DOD) 

legislative proposal included proposed changes to the TRICARE 

pharmaceutical co-pays for fiscal years 2015 through 2024, this 

agreement includes changes beginning in fiscal year 2015. By 

adopting co-payment changes beginning the first year of the 

proposal, the agreement preserves the option for Congress to 

achieve most of the savings requested by DOD. 

This approach does not constitute a rejection of the DOD 

proposal, which was endorsed by the Joint Chiefs of Staff. 

Rather, consideration of further changes to co-pays is deferred 

until after the committees receive the report of the Military 

Compensation and Retirement Modernization Commission, which is 

due in February 2015. The two committees commit to consider 

proposed changes to co-pays that are included in the FY 2016 

budget request as part of the consideration of the National 

Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2016. 

We note that if sequestration-level budgets remain in effect for 

Fiscal Year 2016 and beyond, DOD will need to make painful cuts 

and achieve substantial savings across its entire budget in 

order to avoid an unacceptable reduction in readiness of the 

Armed Forces of the United States. 

Elimination of inpatient day limits and other limits in 

provision of mental health services (sec. 703)

The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision 

(sec. 703) that would amend section 1079 of title 10, United 

States Code, to remove limits on inpatient mental health 
97

services, removing a potential barrier to receipt of mental 

health care that does not exist for other medical and surgical 

care.

The House bill contained no similar provision.

The agreement includes the Senate provision with a 

technical amendment.

Authority for provisional TRICARE coverage for emerging health 

care services and supplies (sec. 704)

The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision 

(sec. 705) that would amend section 1073 of title 10, United 

States Code, to authorize the Secretary of Defense to provide 

provisional coverage or authorization for coverage for certain 

health care products and services that do not meet the hierarchy 

of reliable evidence as prescribed in federal regulations for 

the TRICARE program. 

The House bill contained no similar provision.

The agreement includes the Senate provision with an 

amendment that would amend chapter 55 of Title 10, United States 

Code, to authorize the Secretary of Defense, acting through the 

Assistant Secretary of Defense for Health Affairs, to provide 

provisional coverage for the provision of a service or supply if 

the Secretary determines that such service or supply is widely 

recognized in the United States as being safe and effective.

Clarification of provision of food to former members and 

dependents not receiving inpatient care in military medical 

treatment facilities (sec. 705)

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 702) that would 

amend section 1078b of title 10, United States Code, to allow 

former members and their dependents to receive food and 

beverages at no cost for those who are receiving certain 

outpatient care in military medical treatment facilities.

beneficiaries.
98

provision (sec. 704). 

The agreement includes this provision.

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 715) that would 

require the Secretary of Defense to provide TRICARE 

beneficiaries and providers with written notice if any 

significant changes are made in policy regarding services 

provided under the TRICARE program or in payment rates of more 

than 20 percent.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision.

The agreement includes the House provision with an 

amendment that would require the Secretary of Defense to provide 

TRICARE beneficiaries with notice if any significant changes are 

made in the structure of or benefits provided under the TRICARE 

program or in beneficiary cost-share rates of more than 20 

percent.

Surveys on continued viability of TRICARE Standard and TRICARE 

Extra (sec. 712)

number of health care providers who accept TRICARE Standard and 

TRICARE Extra. The Comptroller General would report on reviews 

during 2017, 2020, and at such other times as requested by the 

Comptroller General or the Committees on Armed Services of the 

Senate and the House of Representatives. 

The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision 

(sec. 707) that would repeal the requirement for ongoing 

Comptroller General review of the processes, procedures, and 

analysis used by DOD to determine health care and mental health 

care provider acceptance of the TRICARE Standard and TRICARE 

Extra benefit.

The agreement includes the House provision with an 

amendment that would change the frequency of the reports of the 

reviews submitted to Congress by the Comptroller General 

regarding the processes, procedures, and analysis used by DOD to 

determine the adequacy of the number of health care providers 
99

who accept TRICARE Standard and TRICARE Extra. The Comptroller 

General would report on reviews during 2017 and 2020 only.

Review of military health system modernization study (sec. 713)

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 714) that would 

require the Secretary of Defense to submit a report to the 

congressional defense committees on the Military Medical 

Treatment Facility Modernization Study directed by the Resource 

Management Decision of the Department of Defense (DOD) MP-D-01. 

The report would include the study data, for a 12-year period, 

used by the Secretary and the results of the study with regard 

to recommendations to restructure or realign military medical 

treatment facilities. Further, the provision would require the 

Comptroller General of the United States, not later than 180 

days after the Secretary submits the report required, to submit 

a report to the congressional defense committees on the report 

submitted by the Secretary of Defense, to include an assessment

A proposed amendment to the Senate committee-reported bill 

(amendment number SA3901) contained a provision that would 

include in the Senate provision Comptroller General report 

elements requiring the Comptroller General, with respect to each

military medical treatment facility covered by the modernization 

study, to assess whether the Secretary of Defense consulted with 

the appropriate training directorate, training and doctrine 

command, and forces command of the military department concerned 

with respect to the frequency of high-tempo, live-fire military 

operations at such training centers; and assess the capacity of 

each medical facility in the surrounding area of a major 

military training center to treat battlefield related injuries, 

including whether such facility has a helipad capable of 

receiving medical evacuation airlift patients arriving from the 

primary evacuation aircraft platform used by such training 

center. 

The agreement includes the House provision with an 

amendment that would require the Secretary of Defense to submit 

a report to the congressional defense committees on the Military 
100

Medical Treatment Facility Modernization Study directed by the 

Resource Management Decision of DOD MP-D-01. The report would 

include the study data, for a 6-year period, used by the 

Secretary and the results of the study with regard to 

recommendations to restructure or realign military medical 

treatment facilities, as well as assessments of whether the 

military medical treatment facilities included in the 

modernization study have a helipad capable of receiving medical 

evacuation airlift patients arriving on the primary evacuation

medication therapy management as part of the TRICARE program. 

The program would be focused on improving patient medication use 

and outcomes using best commercial practices in medication 

therapy management and would quantify effectiveness by measuring 
103

patient medication use and outcomes as well as health care 

costs. The Secretary of Defense would be required to submit a 

report on the results of the pilot program to the congressional 

defense committees not later than 30 months after the program 

commences.

describing this program to the Committees on Armed Services of 

the Senate and the House of Representatives not later than 180 

days after the date of the enactment of this Act.

The agreement includes the House provision.

We note that although the requirement is to carry out the 

pilot program at two military treatment facilities and one 

additional point of service, we expect the Secretary to utilize 

prescription drug data from all three points of service 

(military treatment facility, mail order, and retail) in order 

to provide an accurate assessment.

LEGISLATIVE PROVISIONS NOT ADOPTED

Behavioral health treatment of developmental disabilities under 

the TRICARE program

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 704) that would 

amend section 1077 of title 10, United States Code, to authorize 

behavioral health treatment, including applied behavior analysis 

(ABA) therapy, for all developmental disabilities as defined by 

section 15002(8) of title 42, United States Code, including 

autism spectrum disorders, when prescribed by a physician or 

psychologist to be covered under the basic TRICARE program for 

certain beneficiaries.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision.

The agreement does not include this provision.

We note that in July of this year the Department of 

Defense consolidated its three preexisting programs that 

provided ABA therapy for beneficiaries with autism spectrum

disorder into its TRICARE Comprehensive Autism Care 

Demonstration program. This consolidation included a pilot 

program mandated by Congress in section 705 of the National 

Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2013 (Public Law 112-

239), which provided an ABA therapy reinforcement benefit for 

family members of retirees. The Department of Defense is 

required to provide the Committees on Armed Services of the 

Senate and the House of Representatives with a report on the 

results of that pilot program, to include recommendations with 

regard to beneficiary cost-shares for the benefit. This report 

is expected in early 2015. 

Cooperative health care agreements between the military 

departments and non-military health care entities

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 711) that would 

authorize the secretaries of the military departments to 
108

establish cooperative health care agreements between military 

installations and local or regional non-military health care 

entities.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision.

The agreement does not include this provision.

Limitation on transfer or elimination of graduate medical 

education billets

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 713) that would 

prohibit the Secretary of Defense from transferring or 

eliminating a graduate medical education billet from a military 

medical treatment facility unless the Secretary conducts a 

review of at least 2 years of the implementation of the reform 

of the administration of the Military Health System, examines 

recruiting and retention of medical professionals with regard to 

the Department of Defense’s graduate medical education programs, 

determines the assignment of such billets, and certifies to the 

congressional defense committees that any proposed transfer of a 

billet meets the needs of the military departments and patients.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision.

The agreement does not include this provision.

Department of Defense Medicare-Eligible Retiree Health Care Fund 

matters

The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision 

(sec. 721) that would amend sections 1111, 1113, 1115, and 1116 

of title 10, United States Code, to modify the method by which 

the Federal Government makes accrual payments into the 

Department of Defense Medicare-Eligible Retiree Health Care Fund 

(Fund), by changing from a lump sum Treasury payment at the 

beginning of a fiscal year to monthly payments by the military 

services out of military personnel accounts, and would authorize 

the Secretary of Defense to change the actuarial determination 

required by section 1115 of title 10, United States Code, in the 

event Congress enacts significant benefit changes after such 

determination was made.

The House bill contained no similar provision.

The agreement does not include this provision.

For the last several years, the Department of Defense 

(DOD) has proposed legislation that, if enacted, would reduce 

its annual contribution to the Fund. These proposals have come 

as part of the administration’s budget submission, and DOD 

continues to assume discretionary savings in its budget that are 
109

tied to enactment of these proposals, despite the fact that (1) 

there is no guarantee that Congress will support the proposals, 

and (2) even if Congress were to support such proposals, the 

timing of the annual contribution to the Fund precludes DOD from 

realizing discretionary savings in the year of execution, unless 

the annual defense bill is passed and signed by the President 

prior to October 1st. We find this practice of assuming savings 

disingenuous at worst, and short-sighted and impractical at 

best.

Until a method is devised for DOD to realize year-ofexecution savings with respect to its contributions to the Fund, 

we strongly urge DOD to cease its practice of assuming year-ofexecution discretionary savings from legislative proposals that 

effect outlays from the Fund. Such practice leaves DOD with 

military personnel funding shortfalls even if Congress supports 

legislative proposals that yield short-term discretionary 

savings.

Research regarding Alzheimer’s disease

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 723) that would 

authorize the Secretary of Defense to carry out research, 

development, test, and evaluation activities with respect to 

Alzheimer’s disease.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision.

The agreement does not include this provision.

Briefing on hospitals in arrears in payments to Department of 

Defense

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 728) that would 

require the Secretary of Defense to provide to the Committees on 

Armed Services of the Senate and the House of Representatives a 

briefing on the process used by the Defense Health Agency (DHA) 

to collect payments from non-Department of Defense (DOD) 

hospitals.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision.

The agreement does not include this provision. 

We direct the Secretary of Defense to provide, not later 

than 60 days after the date of the enactment of this Act, a 

briefing to the Committees on Armed Services of the Senate and 

the House of Representatives on the process used by DHA to 

collect payments from non-DOD hospitals, to include a list of 

each hospital that is more than 90 days in arrears in payments 
110

to the Secretary, including the amount of arrears by 30-day 

increments for each such hospital.

Research regarding breast cancer

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 729) that would 

require the Secretary of Defense to implement the 

recommendations of the Interagency Breast Cancer and

Environmental Research Coordinating Committee (IBCERCC) to 

prioritize prevention and increase the study of chemical and 

physical factors in breast cancer.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision.

The agreement does not include this provision.

We note that the Department of Defense Breast Cancer 

Research Program (BCRP) has implemented recommendations of the 

IBCERCC and has prioritized primary prevention as one of the 

BCRP's ten overarching challenges. In addition, the study of 

chemical and physical factors in primary prevention is one of 

several recommendations made by the IBCERCC to address the 

primary prevention of breast cancer. The intent of the program 

is to enable researchers to submit proposals that address any of 

the overarching challenges.

Sense of Congress regarding access to mental health services by 

members of the armed forces

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 730) that would 

express the sense of Congress that servicemembers should have 

adequate access to the mental health care and support that they 

need, that public-private mental health partnerships can provide 

the Department of Defense (DOD) with enhanced capability to 

treat servicemembers, and that DOD should fully implement the 

pilot program authorized under section 706 of the National 

Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2013 (Public Law 112-

239).

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision.

The agreement does not include this provision.

Evaluation of wounded warrior care and transition program

provision.

The agreement does not include this provision.

TITLE VIII—ACQUISITION POLICY, ACQUISITION 

MANAGEMENT, AND RELATED MATTERS

SUBTITLE A—ACQUISITION POLICY AND 

MANAGEMENT

Modular open systems approaches in acquisition programs (sec. 

801)

The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision 

(sec. 801) that would require the Department of Defense (DOD) to 

adopt an open systems approach to Major Defense Acquisition 

Programs and Major Automated Information Systems, and to other 

programs the primary purpose of which is the acquisition of an 

information technology (IT) system, entering the acquisition 

process after January 1, 2016. The committee believes that a 

comprehensive open systems approach is an important component of 

IT acquisition reform.

The House bill contained no similar provision.

The agreement includes the Senate provision with a 

clarifying amendment.
113

The provision requires the Under Secretary of Defense for 

Acquisition, Technology and Logistics to develop standards and 

define architectures necessary to enable open systems approaches 

in key mission areas of DOD.

The Under Secretary is further required to review and 

update guidance to ensure that acquisition programs use open 

system approaches in the product design and acquisition of 

information technology systems to the maximum extent practicable 

and to detail in the contract file reasons why any system is not 

an open system.

Finally, the provision requires the Under Secretary to 

identify legacy information technology systems that are not 

utilizing an open systems approach and outline a process for 

potential conversion to an open systems approach. 

Recharacterization of changes to Major Automated Information 

System programs (sec. 802)

The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision 

(sec. 802) that would modify requirements applicable to a Major 

Automated Information System program that fails to achieve a 

full deployment decision within 5 years after the Milestone A 

decision or selection of the preferred alternative for the 

program. 

In lieu of a critical change report, failure to achieve a 

full deployment decision within 5 years would be determined to 

be a significant change with the attendant notification to the 

congressional defense committees required for all significant 

changes.

The House bill contained no similar provision.

The agreement includes the Senate provision. 

Amendments relating to defense business systems (sec. 803)

The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision 

(sec. 803) that would require business process reengineering 

(BPR) before milestone decisions for the Major Automated 

Information System program.

The House bill contained no similar provision.

The agreement includes the Senate provision with a 

clarifying amendment.

We continue to be concerned that BPR is not being 

conducted rigorously enough, or documented well enough, to drive 

successful information technology acquisition outcomes. 

We believe that the Department of Defense (DOD) is too 

often lackadaisical in its attempts at BPR or the results are 

misaligned to the budgeting, requirements and acquisition 
114

processes to have any significant effect on the outcome. BPR 

must happen early and upfront, well before the requirements and 

acquisition community get involved in order to inform their 

work.

As we have observed, and as industry has indicated to us 

as part of our acquisition improvement efforts, it is important 

to clearly articulate the desired outcomes of information 

technology (IT) system acquisitions with input from the user 

community. That should happen after business processes have 

been analyzed, and if necessary restructured, to ensure the way 

an organization does business drives the system, not the other 

way around. Aligning the IT acquisition strategy to the mission 

goals of the organization is necessary to get the maximum 

return-on-investment from a system, but that cannot happen 

without leadership to drive and enforce organizational change. 

We believe that the requirement to do formal process 

mapping as part of the milestone decision approval process will 

help, but is only one step, in a larger effort to improve the 

information technology management of DOD.

We believe there are a number of ways that DOD could 

improve BPR. For example, expanding the investment review 

process for IT systems and empowering the Deputy Chief 

Management Officer (DCMO) to conduct BPR for other IT mission 

areas within DOD warrants consideration in the future. 

Additionally, we believe that the process improvement 

officers of DOD and the military departments should work with 

their respective Chief Information Officers to create metrics to 

track progress and BPR, as well as meeting the other strategic 

management objectives of DOD. 

We note that there are many scientific and technical 

personnel within DOD’s research, development, test and 

evaluation community that could be more actively engaged to 

create a rigorous, scientific process for conducting BPR. 

Report on implementation of acquisition process for information 

technology systems (sec. 804)

The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision 

(sec. 805) that would require the Under Secretary of Defense 

(Acquisition, Technology, & Logistics) to submit a report to the 

congressional defense committees on the implementation of the 

acquisition process for information technology detailing the 

applicable implementing regulations, instructions, or policies. 

The report shall also explain any legislative criteria not 

yet implemented and a schedule for implementing such criteria 

along with any proposed deviations.

The House bill contained no similar provision.
115

The agreement includes the Senate provision.

We are concerned with the Department of Defense’s (DOD) 

ability to effectively acquire information technology (IT) 

resources. We believe that part of the challenge that DOD faces 

is in its reliance on processes that are too heavily focused on 

the acquisition of militarily unique hardware systems. We 

recognize that the paradigm for IT acquisition is rooted more 

firmly in the commercial marketplace. As a consumer of 

commercially developed solutions, rather than a generator of 

unique requirements, DOD follows commercial trends more often 

than it leads them.

Unfortunately, we believe that DOD has not done enough to 

come to terms with this trend, choosing instead to act as though 

it has the same power to influence computing and electronics 

markets as it did for most of the 20th century. Though numerous 

studies have indicated a need to change acquisition processes 

within DOD to adjust to the reality of 21st century commercial 

IT markets, DOD has made little progress. Ideas such as agile 

development, the use of clear requirements tied to software 

development timelines, rethinking the processes for capital 

planning and investment, and the application of system audits 

and risk management to enhance outcomes are prevalent within the 

commercial sector, but often face resistance and hostility from 

government program managers and contracting officers.

Section 804 of the National Defense Authorization Act of 

Fiscal Year 2012 (Public Law 111-84) authorized DOD to implement 

a new acquisition process for IT systems, but to date, we have 

seen little tangible action to take advantage of those new 

authorities. We believe that DOD needs to do more to show 

tangible progress in its efforts at improving IT acquisition, 

especially as software-intensive IT systems continue to become 

more prominent components of U.S. military capability. 

SUBTITLE B—AMENDMENTS TO GENERAL 

CONTRACTING AUTHORITIES, PROCEDURES, AND

LIMITATIONS

Extension and modification of contract authority for advanced 

component development and prototype units (sec. 811)

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 802) that would 

extend existing statutory authority under subsection (b)(4) of 

section 819 of the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal 

Year 2010 (Public Law 111-84) until September 30, 2019. 

The Senate committee-reported bill contained a similar 

provision (sec. 822).
116

The agreement includes the Senate provision. 

Amendments relating to authority of the Defense Advanced 

Research Projects Agency to carry out certain prototype projects 

(sec. 812)

The House bill included a provision (section 803) which 

would amend section 845(a)(1) of The National Defense 

Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 1994 (Public Law 103–160) to 

broaden the definition for the types of efforts for which other 

transactions authority might be used by the Defense Advanced 

Research Projects Agency.

The Senate committee-reported bill included no similar 

provision.

The agreement includes the House provision with an 

amendment that makes technical changes to the use of other 

transactions authority.

Extension of limitation on aggregate annual amount available for 

contract services (sec. 813)

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 804) that would 

extend for 1 year the cap on the aggregate annual amount spent 

on contracts for services through fiscal year 2015.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision. 

The agreement includes the House provision with a technical 

amendment.

We note that the Government Accountability Office (GAO) 

has stated that the military departments and defense agencies 

generally have not developed plans to use the inventory of 

contracted services, mandated since 2008 in section 2330a of 

title 10, United States Code, to facilitate the Department of 

Defense’s (DOD) strategic workforce planning, workforce mix, 

budget decision-making processes, and contract execution and 

oversight. 

Further, GAO found that components may not have fully 

identified, as required by section 2330a of title 10, United 

States Code, all instances in which contractors are providing 

services that are inherently governmental, closely associated 

with inherently governmental functions, staff augmentation, or 

personal services, the latter of which we note are prohibited by 

law. 

According to GAO, a key factor inhibiting the components’ 

inventory review is a lack of accurate and reliable data, which 

we note the inventory could provide if the components were to 
117

implement DOD-wide a common data system based on the Army’s 

existing system as directed by existing DOD guidance. 

In the absence of a plan of action with milestones and 

timeframes to establish a common data system to collect 

contractor manpower data, we are leaving the caps on contractor 

spending in place for fiscal year 2015. 

Improvement in defense design-build construction process (sec. 

814)

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 805) that would 

amend section 3309 of title 41, United States Code, and section 

2305a of title 10, United States Code, by limiting the maximum 

number specified in the solicitation for a design-build 

contract. Additionally, this provision would require the head 

of an agency awarding a contract pursuant to this provision to 

provide a report to the Director of the Office of Management and 

Budget. 

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision.

The agreement includes the House provision with an 

amendment that would limit application of the provision to 

section 2305a of title 10, United States Code, and, for 

contracts greater than $4.0 million, limit the maximum number of 

offerors specified in the solicitation for a two-phase designbuild contract, unless a higher number is approved by the head 

of a contracting activity. 

Permanent authority for use of simplified acquisition procedures 

for certain commercial items (sec. 815)

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 806) that would 

make the authority for use of simplified acquisition procedures 

for certain commercial items permanent.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision. 

The agreement includes the House provision. 

Restatement and revision of requirements applicable to multiyear 

defense acquisitions to be specifically authorized by law (sec. 

816)

The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision 

(sec. 821) that would clarify and reorganize the reporting and 

certification requirements of the Department of Defense when 

requesting specific authorization for multiyear contract 

authority.
118

The House bill contained no similar provision.

The agreement includes the Senate provision with a 

technical amendment clarifying when certain cost estimates 

should be performed. 

Sourcing requirements related to avoiding counterfeit electronic 

parts (sec. 817)

The agreement includes the Senate provision with a 

clarifying amendment. 

Amendments to Proof of Concept Commercialization Pilot Program 

(sec. 818)

The House bill included a provision (section 829) which 

would modify the Small Business Act (section 638 of title 15, 

United States Code) to require each agency carrying out a Small 

Business Technology Transfer program to support innovative 

approaches to technology transfer at institutions of higher 

education, based on the pilot program established under section

5127 of the National Defense Authorization Act for fiscal Year 

2012 (Public Law 112-81).

The Senate committee-reported bill included no similar 

provision.

The agreement includes the House provision with an 

amendment that makes technical amendments to section 1603 of the 

National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2014 (Public 

Law 113-66), which provides authority for the DOD to fund 

commercialization proof of concept centers.

We note that there is commercialization potential in the 

research activities ongoing in universities, small businesses, 

and defense labs. Transition of promising research results into 

fielded defense systems or commercially successful enterprises 

is a benefit to both DOD and the nation as a whole. 

We note that the Senate committee-reported Defense 

Appropriations Act for Fiscal Year 2015 (H.R. 4870 and Senate 

report 113-211) encouraged DOD to expand efforts at 

commercialization of technologies, especially those derived from 

research at the DOD laboratories. We encourage the Assistant 

Secretary of Defense for Research and Engineering to work with 

the Congress to identify appropriate funding to support the 

commercialization activities envisioned in that bill, as well as 

those authorized by this provision.

SUBTITLE C—INDUSTRIAL BASE MATTERS

Temporary extension of and amendments to test program for 

negotiation of comprehensive small business subcontracting plans 

(sec. 821)

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 811) that would 

modify and extend the test program for negotiation of 

comprehensive small business subcontracting plans authorized by 

section 402 of the Small Business Administration Reauthorization 

and Amendments Act of 1990 (Public Law 101-574).

The Senate committee-reported bill contained a similar 

provision (sec. 823).

The agreement includes the House provision with a 

technical amendment. 

Plan for improving data on bundled or consolidated contracts 

(sec. 822)

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 813) that would 

amend section 644 of title 15, United States Code, by requiring 

the Small Business Administration to work with other agencies to 

create and implement a data quality improvement plan to promote 

greater accuracy, transparency, and accountability in the 

reporting of contract bundling and consolidation.

The committee recognizes that properly labeling a contract 

as bundled or consolidated is important to small business 

competition, as the process of contract labeling triggers a 

series of reviews and mitigation steps that promote 

opportunities for small business.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision. 

The agreement includes the House provision with a 

clarifying amendment.

We direct the Comptroller General of the United States to 

assess whether contracts are being identified properly as 

bundled or consolidated. The review shall examine a 

statistically significant sample of contracts awarded by the 

Departments of Defense (DOD), Energy, Health and Human Services, 

Homeland Security, Veterans Affairs, the General Services 

Administration, National Aeronautics and Space Administration 

and the Small Business Administration with values above $10.0 

million in sectors 23, 33, 54, and 56 as defined by the North 

American Industry Classification System.

Not later than October 1, 2015, the Comptroller General 

shall provide an interim briefing to the House and Senate 

Committees on Armed Services, the Senate Committee on Small 
120

Business and Entrepreneurship, and the House Committee on Small 

Business with a summary of findings, including an assessment of 

(1) the quality of data reported pertaining to contract bundling 

and consolidation, and (2) interim recommendations, if any, to 

improve current data collection and dissemination on contract 

bundling and consolidation.

In the final report, the Comptroller General shall 

evaluate (1) the pros and cons of implementing government-wide 

the “Federal Procurement Data System (FPDS) Contract Reporting 

Data Improvement Plan” published by DOD on January 12, 2010; (2) 

the plan proposed by the Small Business Administration under 

this section; and (3) whether other alternatives should be 

considered to improve reporting of bundled and consolidated 

contracts without requiring modification to FPDS.

Finally, the Comptroller General shall examine whether 

government-wide strategic sourcing vehicles are reducing the 

number of companies, including small business concerns, that are 

actively participating in the federal procurement system as 

prime contractors, and whether this reduction poses substantial 

risk to the industrial base. 

The final report shall be delivered to the House and 

Senate Committees on Armed Services, the Senate Committee on 

Small Business and Entrepreneurship, and the House Committee on 

Small Business not later than October 1, 2017. 

Authority to provide education to small businesses on certain 

requirements of Arms Export Control Act (sec. 823)

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 814) that would 

amend section 21(c)(1) of the Small Business Act (section 

648(c)(1) of title 15, United States Code) by including a 

requirement that applicants receiving grants pursuant to that 

section shall also assist small businesses by providing, where 

appropriate, education on the requirements applicable to small 

businesses under the regulations issued pursuant to the Arms 

Export Control Act (chapter 39 of title 22, United States Code) 

and on compliance with those requirements. The provision would 

also amend section 2418 of title 10, United States Code, by 

expanding the Procurement Technical Assistance Program to assist 

small business concerns with education related to export 

controls.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision. 

The agreement includes the House provision with a 

clarifying amendment. 

Matters relating to reverse auctions (sec. 824)
121

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 815) that would 

amend the Small Business Act (15 U.S.C. 631) to prohibit the use 

of reverse auctions for procurement of certain goods and 

services if the contract is awarded using a Small Business Act 

procurement authority. 

It would also limit the use of reverse auctions in cases 

where only one offer was received or where offerors do not have 

the ability to submit revised bids throughout the course of the 

auction. 

The section further clarified that the desire to use a 

reverse auction does not obviate federal agencies from the 

obligation to use a Small Business Act procurement authority.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision.

The agreement includes the House provision with a 

clarifying amendment.

We note that in conducting reverse auctions, buyers have 

the ability to cancel an auction at any time before the auction 

closes or to make the decision not to make any award after the 

auction closes with proper justification in accordance with the 

terms and conditions of the solicitation and all applicable 

regulations.

The agreement also prohibits the use of reverse auctions 

for military construction projects that require a specific 

congressional authorization. 

Sole source contracts for small business concerns owned and 

controlled by women (sec. 825)

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 827) that would 

allow for sole source contracting to certain women owned small 

businesses.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision.

The agreement includes the House provision with a 

clarifying amendment.

SUBTITLE D—FEDERAL INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY 

ACQUISITION REFORM

Chief Information Officer authority enhancements (sec. 831)

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 5101) that 

would strengthen various agencies’ Chief Information Officer 

positions.
122

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision. 

The agreement includes the House provision with a 

clarifying amendment. 

Enhanced transparency and improved risk management in 

information technology investments (sec. 832)

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 5505) that 

would enhance transparency in information technology 

investments.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision. 

The agreement contains the House provision with a 

clarifying amendment. 

Portfolio review (sec. 833)

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 5301) that 

would inventory information technology software assets.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision

The agreement contains the House provision with a 

clarifying amendment. 

Federal data center consolidation initiative (sec. 834)

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 5203) that 

would provide for the consolidation of federal data centers.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision. 

The agreement includes the House provision with a 

clarifying amendment. 

We believe that the Department of Defense (DOD) has made 

significant strides in consolidating its data center 

infrastructure, by maturing its process for evaluating data 

centers as well as finding opportunities to leverage commercial 

cloud computing capabilities. However, as both savings and 

efficiencies from data center consolidation reach a point of 

diminishing returns, we believe that DOD can continue to make 

further progress by also integrating efforts to assess the 

applications that run on this infrastructure to determine which 

require dedicated servers and which can potentially be migrated 

to virtualized or cloud environments. 

We believe that software application rationalization and 

consolidation is a natural extension of, and next step in, data 

center consolidation. Reducing the data center footprint 
123

eliminates unneeded infrastructure, but software application 

rationalization is needed to more efficiently utilize the 

infrastructure that remains, and to better determine if any 

further data center consolidation may or may not be warranted.

Therefore, we direct the Chief Information Office of DOD, 

in consultation with the Chief Information Officers of the 

military departments, to carry out an assessment to identify and 

prioritize the software applications in use throughout DOD that 

should be considered for migration to a cloud computing 

environment and to submit a report on the results of the 

assessment to the Committees on Armed Services of the Senate and 

House of Representatives by December 15, 2015. This assessment 

should include the following:

(1) Whether each of the software applications used 

by DOD can be readily transitioned to a cloud computing 

environment with minimal additional investment of 

developmental funding;

(2) If a software application used by DOD cannot be 

readily transitioned to a cloud computing environment, the 

cost and time required to enable, either by modification or 

replacement, the operation of the software application in a 

cloud computing environment;

(3) Whether it would be cost-effective to enable, 

either by modification or replacement, the operation of a 

software application in a cloud computing environment;

(4) A list of software applications used by DOD that 

should be enabled, either by modification or replacement, 

to operate in a cloud computing environment, listed in the 

order of priority by which they should be enabled, and a 

schedule for such modification or replacement; and

(5) An estimate of the cloud computing workload 

needs of DOD time-phased across the future years defense 

plan to inform DOD’s cloud computing needs under the Joint 

Information Environment initiative that might be satisfied 

by government-owned and -operated or commercial cloud 

computing solutions. 

Expansion of training and use of information technology cadres 

(sec. 835)

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 5411) that 

would require a 5-year strategic plan to develop, strengthen, 

and solidify information technology acquisition cadres.

provision. 

The agreement includes the House provision with a 

clarifying amendment. 
124

Maximizing the benefit of the Federal strategic sourcing 

initiative (sec. 836)

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 5501) that 

would require regulations to maximize the benefit of the Federal 

Strategic Sourcing Initiative.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision. 

The agreement includes the House provision. 

Governmentwide software purchasing program (sec. 837)

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 5502) that 

would require the creation of a strategic sourcing initiative 

for software.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision. 

The agreement includes the House provision with a 

clarifying amendment. 

SUBTITLE E—NEVER CONTRACT WITH THE ENEMY

Prohibition on providing funds to the enemy (sec. 841)

A proposed amendment to the Senate committee-reported bill 

(amendment number 3743B) contained a provision that would 

provide the authority to terminate or void a contract, grant, or 

cooperative agreement when it is found that funds received under 

that contract, grant, or cooperative agreement are being 

provided directly or indirectly to a person or entity that is 

actively opposing United States or coalition forces involved in 

a contingency operation in which members of the Armed Forces are 

actively engaged in hostilities.

The House bill contained no similar provision.

The agreement includes the Senate provision with a 

clarifying amendment.

Additional access to records (sec. 842)

A proposed amendment to the Senate committee-reported bill 

(amendment number 3743C) contained a provision that would allow 

the head of an executive agency to examine the records of a 

contractor, recipient of a grant or cooperative agreement to the 

extent necessary to ensure that funds, including goods and 

services, available under the contract, grant, or cooperative 

agreement are not provided directly or indirectly to a person or 
125

entity that is actively opposing United States or coalition 

forces involved in a contingency operation in which members of 

the Armed Forces are actively engaged in hostilities.

The House bill contained no similar provision.

The agreement includes this provision.

Definitions (sec. 843)

A proposed amendment to the Senate committee-reported bill 

(amendment number 3743D) contained a provision that would 

provide certain definitions.

The House bill contained no similar provision.

The agreement includes the Senate provision with a 

clarifying amendment. 

SUBTITLE F—OTHER MATTERS

Rapid acquisition and deployment procedures for United States 

Special Operations Command (sec. 851)

The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision 

(sec. 807) that would require procedures for the rapid 

acquisition and deployment of items for the U.S. Special 

Operations Command (SOCOM) that are currently under development 

by the Department of Defense (DOD) or available from the 

commercial sector and are urgently needed to avoid significant 

risk or loss of life or mission failure, or needed to avoid 

collateral damage where no collateral damage is necessary for 

mission success.

The House bill contained no similar provision.

The agreement includes the Senate provision with an 

amendment that would authorize the establishment of procedures 

for rapid acquisition and deployment of items for SOCOM that are 

currently under development by DOD or available from the 

commercial sector and are urgently needed to avoid significant 

risk or loss of life or mission failure, or needed to avoid 

collateral damage where no collateral damage is necessary for 

mission success.

The provision would also require the Commander, SOCOM, in 

instances where an item has identified deficiencies, to make the 

determination that deployment of such an item is acceptable for 

reasons of national security.

The provision would also make clear the SOCOM Commander 

may not use the authority under this provision at the same time 

as the Commander uses the authority under section 806 of Public 

Law 107-314.
126

The agreement also includes amendments to the provision 

that would require congressional notifications be made before 

such rapid acquisition procedures go into effect and after such 

use of rapid acquisition procedures are used to ensure robust 

congressional oversight of this authority. 

Consideration of corrosion control in preliminary design review 

(sec. 852)

The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision 

(sec. 808) that would require the Under Secretary of Defense for 

Acquisition, Technology, and Logistics to ensure that Department 

of Defense (DOD) Instruction 5000.02 and other applicable 

guidance require full consideration during preliminary design 

review of metals, materials, and technologies that effectively 

prevent or control corrosion over the life cycle of the product.

The House bill contained no similar provision.

The agreement includes the Senate provision. 

We expect the relevant instruction and regulations called 

for in this provision to be tailored to apply only to products 

likely to corrode and not to every item or system purchased by 

the DOD. 

Program manager development report (sec. 853)

The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision 

(sec. 841) that would require the Secretary of Defense to 

develop a comprehensive strategy for enhancing the role of 

Department of Defense program managers in developing and 

carrying out defense acquisition programs.

The House bill contained no similar provision.

The agreement includes the Senate provision with a 

clarifying amendment.

Operational metrics for Joint Information Environment and 

supporting activities (sec. 854)

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 821) that would 

require the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff to conduct a 

review of the Air Force Network-Centric Solutions II contract 

and provide a certification to the Committees on Armed Services 

of the Senate and the House of Representatives that the contract 

is effective in delivering information technology capabilities 

for the joint force.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision.
127

The agreement includes the House provision with a 

clarifying amendment.

We remain concerned by the lack of clarity about the 

activities supporting the Joint Information Environment (JIE), 

including the programs of records, and other non-materiel 

aspects, that would contribute to the JIE vision. 

In the case of some of the programs that we believe 

contribute to JIE, like the Air Force’s Network Centric 

Solutions II contract, Navy’s Next Generation Enterprise 

Network, or the Army’s Installation Information Infrastructure 

Modernization program, there are measures of performance driven 

by the information technology community, but not ones that can 

be clearly tied to operational outcomes for the warfighting 

community. 

As the JIE evolves into a seamless network to support 

warfighting functions, as well as business and support 

processes, we believe that the Department of Defense (DOD) needs 

metrics that can be tied to the operational customer in ways 

that can demonstrate effectiveness, efficiency and satisfaction.

Therefore, we direct the DOD Chief Information Officer, in 

coordination with the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, to 

brief the Committees on Armed Services of the Senate and the 

House of Representatives on the guidance and metrics required by 

this section within 210 days of the enactment of this Act. 

Compliance with requirements for senior Department of Defense 

officials seeking employment with defense contractors (sec. 855)

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 823) that would 

amend section 847 of the National Defense Authorization Act for 

Fiscal Year 2008 (Public Law 110-181) to require the Secretary 

of Defense to designate an official of the Department of Defense 

(DOD) to ensure compliance with the requirements of that section 

and would require that, not later than 180 days after the date 

of the enactment of this Act, such official shall submit to the 

congressional defense committees a report on DOD’s efforts to 

ensure compliance with the requirements of section 847.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision.

The agreement includes the House provision with a 

clarifying amendment.

We note a lack of clarity in the lines of supervision for 

purposes of monitoring compliance with section 847 of the 

National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2008 (Public 

Law 110-181). 

We therefore direct DOD to review those lines of 

supervision and to submit a report on its findings to the 
128

Committees on Armed Services of the Senate and of the House of 

Representatives, no later than March 31, 2015. 

The report shall identify each supervisory component by 

office and by position and describe the reporting relationships 

between each of DOD’s 17 Designed Agency Ethics Officials and 

each of the various components in their respective chains of 

supervision as they relate to section 847 compliance. 

Enhancement of whistleblower protection for employees of 

grantees (sec. 856)

The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision 

(sec. 826) that would enhance the whistleblower protections for 

employees of grantees.

The House bill contained no similar provision.

The agreement includes the Senate provision with a 

clarifying amendment. 

Prohibition on reimbursement of contractors for congressional 

investigations and inquiries (sec. 857)

The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision 

(sec. 827) that would prohibit reimbursement of costs incurred 

by a contractor in connection with a congressional investigation 

or inquiry into an issue that is the subject matter of a 

proceeding resulting in a disposition.

The House bill contained no similar provision.

The agreement includes the Senate provision.

Requirement to provide photovoltaic devices from United States 

sources (sec. 858)

The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision 

(sec. 829) that would provide additional acquisition 

opportunities for the Department of Defense with respect to 

photovoltaic devices.

The House bill contained no similar provision.

The agreement includes the Senate provision. 

Reimbursement of Department of Defense for assistance provided 

to nongovernmental entertainment-oriented media producers (sec. 

859)

The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision 

(sec. 862) that would provide for the reimbursement to the 

Department of Defense for assistance provided to nongovernmental 

entertainment-oriented media producers.
129

The House bill contained no similar provision.

The agreement includes the Senate provision. 

Three-year extension of authority for Joint Urgent Operational 

Needs Fund (sec. 860)

The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision 

(sec. 863) that would reauthorize the Joint Urgent Operational 

Needs Fund for three more years.

The House bill contained no similar provision.

The agreement includes the Senate provision. 

LEGISLATIVE PROVISIONS NOT ADOPTED

Extension to United States Transportation Command of authorities 

relating to prohibition on contracting with the enemy

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 801) that would 

amend section 831(i)(1) of the National Defense Authorization 

Act for Fiscal Year 2014 (Public Law 113-66) to add U.S. 

Transportation Command to the list of covered combatant 

commands.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained a similar 

provision (sec. 861). 

The agreement does not include this provision. 

We note that the extension to U.S. Transportation Command 

of authorities relating to prohibition on contracting with the 

enemy was included in another provision of this agreement.

Governance of Joint Information Environment

The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision 

(sec. 804) that would require the Secretary of Defense to 

install a stronger management element and set of controls on the 

Joint Information Environment (JIE) initiative, including by 

requiring the assignment of an experienced coordinator under the 

Chief Information Officer (CIO) to oversee the JIE migration, 

the establishment of a team of experts to support the 

coordinator, and modifications to the JIE Executive Committee 

and its working groups to ensure better representation of those 

who must use the JIE to execute warfighting missions and those 

who must defend the JIE from cyber attacks.

The House bill contained no similar provision.

The agreement does not include this provision.

We are encouraged that the newly appointed CIO has the 

necessary support from the Secretary and Deputy Secretary of 

Defense, and the intent, to impose greater discipline over the 
130

JIE migration, bolster the planning and engineering resources 

devoted to the initiative, and to ensure that the needs of the 

operational forces receive all due consideration alongside 

communications and computing efficiencies and cost savings.

We direct that the CIO be prepared to brief the 

congressional defense committees at regular intervals on the 

measures taken to achieve these improvements, including defining 

what JIE encompasses, and the “as is” condition and the “to be” 

architecture; developing an integrated master schedule and cost 

estimates; and tracking compliance with objectives, schedules, 

and costs.

In addition, we direct the CIO to identify and prioritize 

the applications in use in the Department of Defense (DOD) that 

the CIO assesses are candidates for migration to a cloud 

computing environment, and to determine which applications can 

and cannot, without modification or replacement, be shifted to a 

cloud computing environment, along with a time-phased plan to 

either modify or replace those applications that are not cloudcompatible. We note that a significant percentage of DOD 

computing applications cannot be virtualized or otherwise are 

not cloud-compatible, and that the cost and time required to 

modify such applications are substantial. Without an 

understanding of what applications can be readily migrated, and 

a plan to modify or replace those that cannot, neither DOD nor 

potential commercial cloud providers will be able to plan 

effectively. The CIO should complete this tasking, and be 

prepared to share the results with the congressional defense 

committees, within 270 days of the enactment of this Act. 

Improving opportunities for service-disabled veteran-owned small 

business

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 812) that would 

amend section 657 of title 15, United States Code, by 

consolidating the verification and appeals processes for 

Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB) programs 

at the Department of Veterans Affairs and the Small Business 

Administration (SBA), and by moving the processes and resources 

of the SDVOSB verification programs at the Department of 

Veterans Affairs to the SBA.

The provision would also allow the surviving spouse of a 

service-disabled veteran who acquires an ownership right in a 

small business concern to be treated as if the surviving spouse 

were that veteran for the purpose of maintaining the status of 

the small business as a small business concern owned and 

controlled by service-disabled veterans.
131

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision.

The agreement does not include this provision.

We note that in the case of a transfer of ownership 

resulting from the death of a service-disabled veteran to a 

surviving spouse altering the status of the small business as a 

SDVOSB, we believe the small business concern can continue to 

perform existing contracts along with any remaining options to 

those contracts under existing law.

Improving Federal Surety Bonds

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 816) that would 

amend section 411(c)(1) of the Small Business Investment Act of 

1958 (Public Law 85-699) by raising the guarantee rate on the 

Small Business Administration's preferred security bond program 

from 70 percent to 90 percent. 

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision.

The agreement does not include this provision. 

Publication of required justification that consolidation of 

contract requirements

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 817) that would 

require publication of certain justification and approval 

documents.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision.

The agreement does not include this provision. 

Small business prime and subcontract participation goals raised; 

accounting of subcontracting

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 818) that would 

raise the goals for small business subcontracting.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision.

The agreement does not include this provision.

Small business cyber education

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 819) that would 

allow the Secretary of Defense, in consultation with the 

Administrator of the Small Business Administration, to promote 

an outreach and education program to assist small businesses in 
132

understanding the cyber threat and in defending their networks 

and intellectual property.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision.

The agreement does not include this provision.

We recognize the challenges faced by small business, both 

in protecting their own networks and intellectual property, and 

also in developing effective capabilities to address cyber 

security needs. As noted in the Joint Explanatory Statement 

accompanying H.R. 3304, we recognize the challenges that the 

defense acquisition system can pose for small businesses, but 

the purpose of the small and disadvantaged businesses offices 

established in each of the services is to handle the whole gamut 

of small business issues. 

We are aware of the activities the Department of Defense 

(DOD) has instituted in order to improve small business access 

to threat information and best practices pertaining to cyber 

security. Last year, DOD briefed the Armed Services Committees 

of the Senate and House of Representatives on plans to support 

cyber education activities for small business through the 

existing small business program. We recognize that this is a 

work in progress, and that an ongoing assessment of those 

efforts should be commenced in order to determine the 

effectiveness of those efforts.

Therefore, we direct the Comptroller General of the United 

States to submit a report to the Armed Services Committees of 

the Senate and House of Representatives by November 1, 2015 on 

the DOD’s outreach and education to assist small businesses in 

understanding cyber threats. This report should address the 

following:

(1) An assessment of the planning being done to 

integrate cyber education and outreach into the programs of 

the offices of small and disadvantaged businesses of DOD 

and the military services;

(2) The capabilities of these offices to support 

small businesses in preparing plans for the protection of 

their corporate networks and intellectual property; and

(3) Development of metrics to determine the 

performance and effectiveness of those programs and 

planning activities. 

Procurement of personal protective equipment

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 824) that would 

require the Secretary of Defense to use best value tradeoff 

source selection methods to the maximum extent practicable when 

procuring an item of personal protective equipment (PPE) or 
133

critical safety items. PPE items include, but are not limited 

to, body armor components, combat helmets, combat protective 

eyewear, environmental and fire resistant clothing, footwear, 

organizational clothing and individual equipment (OCIE), and 

other items as determined appropriate by the Secretary.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision. 

The agreement does not include this provision.

We note that PPE such as body armor, helmets, specialized 

clothing and footwear as well as other OCIE items are 

specifically designed to meet challenging military requirements 

and specifications. 

These PPE items are usually not commercial off-the-shelf 

products, but are frequently highly engineered, critical lifesaving equipment items designed and manufactured to meet 

rigorous performance standards, first article testing and 

stringent production quality requirements.

We remain committed to providing the warfighter with the

best equipment possible and encourage the Department of Defense 

to use proper source selection methods to fulfill these 

requirements. In cases where offerors have widely diverse 

technical qualifications and are expected to provide products 

that differ significantly in performance characteristics, source 

selection criteria should not be solely based on cost in the 

procurement of OCIE and PPE.

Authority for Defense Contract Audit Agency to interview 

contractor employees in connection with examination of 

contractor records

The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision 

(sec. 825) that would amend subsection (a)(1) of section 2313 of 

title 10, United States Code, to grant the Defense Contract 

Audit Agency specific authority to interview contractor 

employees similar to the authority granted to the Comptroller 

General of the United States in subsection (c)(1) of that same 

section.

The House bill contained no similar provision.

The agreement does not include this provision.

We believe that under the authorities provided by section 

2313 of title 10, United States Code, Defense Contract Audit 

Agency (DCAA) officials have the authority to interview 

contractor employees during the course of an audit if such an 

interview is required to complete the audit. 

We therefore encourage contractors to make available for 

interview the employees associated with matters related to an 

audit conducted in accordance with section 2313. 
134

We also note that failure to provide reasonable access to 

interview employees associated with matters under review during 

an audit could result in a qualified audit opinion. 

Prohibition on funds for contracts violating Executive Order No. 

11246

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 825) that would

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision.

Requirement for policies and standard checklist in procurement 

of services

requiring the Under Secretary of Defense for Personnel and 

Readiness to implement a standard checklist to be used for new 

contract approval for services or exercising an option under an 

existing contract for services. The checklist required would be 

modeled on the policy and checklist relating to services 

contract approval form (dated August 2012) established and in 

use by the Department of the Army. Finally, the provision would 

require the Comptroller General of the United States to submit 

to the congressional defense committees a report on the 

implementation of the standard checklist for each of fiscal 

years 2015, 2016, and 2017.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision. 

The agreement does not include the provision.

We direct the Under Secretary of Defense for Acquisition,

for the Department of the Navy and the Department of the Air 

Force, no later than March 30, 2015, to issue to the Defense 

agencies and the military services, respectively, policies 

implementing a standard checklist to be completed before the 

issuance of a solicitation for any new contract for services or 

exercising an option under an existing contract for services, 

including services provided under a contract for goods. 
135

We recommend that the Under Secretary and the senior 

acquisition executives, to the extent practicable, model their 

policies and checklists on the policy and checklist relating to 

services contract approval currently used by the Department of 

the Army. 

We also direct the Comptroller General of the United 

States to submit to the congressional defense committees a 

report on the Defense agencies’ and military services’ 

implementation of a standard checklist by January 30, 2016.

authority (MDA) that establishes the expected parameters of 

performance, including the commitment of the MDA that adequate 

funding and resources are available and will be provided, and 

assurance of the program manager that the parameters are 

achievable. 

The provision would also require that program managers be 

given authority comparable to the authority given to private 

sector program managers and that they be assigned to a program 

until the delivery of the first production units, with a narrow 

waiver authority.

The House bill contained no similar provision.

The agreement does not include this provision.

We note that we require the Secretary of Defense to 

provide recommendations on program manager tenure as part of an

TITLE IX—DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE ORGANIZATION 

AND MANAGEMENT

SUBTITLE A-DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE MANAGEMENT

Reorganization of the Office of the Secretary of Defense and 

related matters (sec. 901)

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 908) that would 

incorporate a proposal from the Department of Defense to make 

several amendments to title 10, United States Code, relating to 

the organization and management of the Office of the Secretary 

of Defense.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained a similar 

provision (sec. 901) that would combine the Deputy Chief 

Management Officer position and the Chief Information Officer 

position into the Chief Management Officer position, redesignate 

the Deputy Secretary of Defense as the Chief Operating Officer, 

eliminate the Deputy Under Secretary of Defense title except for 

Principal Deputy Under Secretaries of Defense established by 

law, and redesignate the Assistant Secretary of Defense for 

Operational Energy Plans and Programs as the Assistant Secretary 

of Defense for Installations, Energy, and Environment.

Additionally, this proposal seeks to make changes to 

Chapter 4 of title 10, United States Code, in order to 

streamline the establishment provisions for certain officials 

and ensure that policymaking requirements are provided for 

separately from establishment provisions and to make other 

clerical and conforming changes.

The agreement includes the House provision with an 

amendment that would combine the Deputy Chief Management Officer 

and the Chief Information Officer position into a new Under 

Secretary of Defense position placed in the order of precedence 

before the Under Secretary of Defense for Acquisition, 

Technology and Logistics. 

This change would not take place until the next 

administration, however, to allow for leadership continuity in 

the Department of Defense through the current administration’s 

term in office.
142

The provision also combines the operational energy and 

installations and environment functions under one Assistant 

Secretary of Defense, and we direct the combined organization to 

equally prioritize both functions. Additionally, the provision 

added a new report requirement to accompany the budget 

certification, or if the budget is not certified, there are 

separate reporting details. Such report shall include an 

appendix prepared by the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff 

as well as a separate appendix prepared by the Under Secretary 

of Defense for Acquisition, Technology, and Logistics. We 

expect that the Under Secretary of Defense for Acquisition, 

Technology, and Logistics will address operational energy as an 

element of the acquisition posture statement, when presented to 

Congress.

Section 902 of Public Law 110-417 created the Operational 

Energy position in the Office of the Secretary of Defense, which 

became the Assistant Secretary of Defense for Operational 

Energy, Plans, and Programs with the intent to inform seniorlevel decision-makers of the strategic implications of 

operational energy requirements on the battlefield. 

We recognize and commend the Assistant Secretary for the 

progress and improvements made since enactment of section 902, 

including streamlining operational energy requirements, 

establishing policies, and extending combat capability and 

operational reach by changing the culture and improving 

acquisition and sustainment processes. 

We believe that consideration of operational energy 

demands and planning for energy consumption on the battlefield 

are of tactical and strategic significance. 

Therefore, we direct the Secretary of Defense to ensure 

that the full intent of section 902 of Public Law 110-417 is 

carried forward in any reorganization of personnel or 

responsibilities related to operational energy, plans and 

programs. 

Assistant Secretary of Defense for Manpower and Reserve Affairs 

(sec. 902)

The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision 

(sec. 902) that would amend section 138 of title 10, United 

States Code, to redesignate the position of Assistant Secretary 

of Defense for Reserve Affairs as the Assistant Secretary of 

Defense for Manpower and Reserve Affairs, whose principal duty 

would be the overall supervision of manpower and reserve affairs 

of the Department of Defense. 

The House bill contained no similar provision.
143

The agreement includes the Senate provision with a 

technical amendment.

Requirement for assessment of options to modify the number of 

combatant commands (sec. 903)

than four by the end of fiscal year 2020 and submit a report to 

Congress within 180 days of enactment of this Act on the plan, 

the feasibility and risks of the plan, and any recommendations 

to implement the plan the Secretary considers appropriate.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision.

The agreement includes the House provision with a 

clarifying amendment.

Office of Net Assessment (sec. 904)

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 907) that would 

establish an Office of Net Assessment in the Office of the 

Secretary of Defense.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision.

The agreement includes the House provision with a 

clarifying amendment on the establishment of such an office. 

We note that the current Office of Net Assessment has 

provided the Secretary of Defense with the primary support 

needed to meet the requirements of section 113(i) of title 10, 

United States Code, directing the Secretary to conduct a net 

assessment and submit an annual report to Congress. Support for 

the Secretary’s statutory responsibility for a net assessment 

remains the primary purpose of such an office. 

Periodic review of Department of Defense management headquarters 

(sec. 905)

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 909) that would 

require the Secretary of Defense to develop a plan and submit a 

report to the congressional defense committees within 120 days 

after the date of the enactment of this Act to implement a 

periodic review and analysis of the Department of Defense 

personnel requirements for management headquarters and submit 

the required plan to the congressional defense committee.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision.

workforce plan that addresses the shaping and improvement of the 

senior management workforce of the Department of Defense and 

includes an assessment of the senior functional and technical 

workforce of the Department within the appropriate functional 

community. The provision would also add a requirement that the 

strategic workforce plan include an assessment of the workforce 

of the Department comprising highly qualified experts.

amend section 941(b)(1) of the Duncan Hunter National Defense 

Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2009 (10 U.S.C. 184) by 

extending for 5 years the authority of the Secretary of Defense 

to waive the reimbursement of costs for certain nongovernmental 

personnel at the Department of Defense Regional Centers for 

Security Studies.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained a similar 

provision (sec. 1046). 
145

program and to require its use by servicemembers and Department 

of Defense (DOD) civilians performing official travel.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained a similar 

provision (sec. 1083) that would also require the Secretary to

report to appropriate congressional committees within 18 months 

on the DOD’s implementation of this program and savings 

achieved.

The agreement includes the House provision with an 

amendment that would establish a pilot program authorizing the 

Secretary of Defense to institute a government lodging program 

to provide government or commercial lodging for DOD employees or 

members of the uniformed services under the Secretary’s 

jurisdiction performing duty on official travel. The provision 

would authorize the Secretary to require such travelers to 

occupy adequate quarters on a rental basis when available. The 

provision would also require an initial report within 6 months 

of enactment of this Act outlining facets of the pilot program 

established by the Secretary, as well as annual reports to be 

submitted with annual budget requests, with a final report to be 

submitted with the budget request for fiscal year 2019. The 

authority to conduct a pilot program under this provision would 

expire on December 31, 2019.

Single standard mileage reimbursement rate for privately owned 

automobiles of Government employees and members of the uniformed 

services (sec. 915)

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 923) that would 

establish as the mileage reimbursement rate for federal 

employees and members of the uniformed services using privately 

owned automobiles for government travel the single standard 

mileage reimbursement rate established by the Internal Revenue 

Service for use by taxpayers in computing the deductible costs 

of operating their automobiles for business purposes.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision.

The agreement includes the House provision.
146

Modifications to requirements for accounting for members of the 

Armed Forces and Department of Defense civilian employees listed 

as missing (sec. 916)

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 925) that would 

amend chapter 76 of title 10, United States Code, to establish a 

defense agency within the Department of Defense, headed by a 

director, to have responsibility over the Prisoner of 

War/Missing in Action accounting community. The provision would 

create a new section 1501a of title 10, United States Code, to 

authorize the Secretary of Defense to enter into public-private 

partnerships for the purposes of facilitating the accounting of 

missing persons. The provision would require the Secretary to 

assign or detail to the defense agency a full-time senior 

medical examiner to provide medical oversight of the 

identification process, establish identification and laboratory 

policy, and advise the director on forensic scientific 

disciplines. Finally, the provision would require the Secretary 

to establish and maintain a single centralized database and case 

management system containing information on all missing persons 

for whom a file has been established.

LEGISLATIVE PROVISIONS NOT ADOPTED

Redesignation of the Department of the Navy as the Department of 

the Navy and Marine Corps

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 901) that would 

redesignate the Department of the Navy as the Department of the 

Navy and Marine Corps, and redesignate the position of the 

Secretary of the Navy as the Secretary of the Navy and the 

Marine Corps.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision.

The agreement does not include this provision.
147

Additional responsibility for Director of Operational Test and 

Evaluation

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 902) which 

would require the Director of Operational Test and Evaluation to 

consider potential increases in program cost estimates and 

delays in schedule estimates when implementing the policies, 

procedures, and activities related to operational test and 

evaluation. In addition, the provision requires the Director to 

take appropriate action to ensure operational test and 

evaluation activities do not unnecessarily impede program 

schedules or increase program costs. 

The report accompanying the House bill also directed the 

Comptroller General of the United States to conduct a review of 

the operational test and evaluation processes and activities of 

the Department of Defense and to report the results of that 

review to the congressional defense committees not later than 

March 15, 2015. 

The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision 

(sec. 845) requiring the Comptroller General to submit a report 

to the congressional defense committees on disputes between the 

Office of the Director, Operational Test and Evaluation and the 

acquisition community over testing requirements for major weapon 

systems.

The agreement does not include these provisions. 

We believe that in order to control the cost of defense 

acquisitions, each element of the acquisition system is 

responsible for considering the potential increases in 

acquisition program cost estimates or delays in schedule 

estimates when implementing that element’s policies, procedures, 

and activities. This includes the budget, requirements, 

acquisition, and operational test communities. Each of these 

organizations should take appropriate action to balance its 

responsibilities with the need to avoid unnecessarily increasing 

program costs or impeding program schedules.

Accordingly, the Comptroller General is directed to inform 

the congressional defense committees, not later than March 15, 

2015, on the results of its review of cases in which the program 

office believes that the Director has required testing above the 

agreed to plan.

Requirement for congressional briefing before divesting of 

Defense Finance and Accounting Service functions

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 904) that would 

prohibit the transfer of financial management functions out of 

the Defense Finance and Accounting Service (DFAS) until the 
148

Secretary of Defense provides a briefing to the congressional 

defense committees on a transfer plan and certifies the transfer 

would reduce costs, increase efficiencies, maintain the timeline 

for auditability of financial statements, and maintain the roles 

and missions of DFAS.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision.

The agreement does not include this provision.

As noted in Senate report accompanying S. 2410 (S. Rept. 

113-176), the Assistant Secretary of the Army for Financial 

Management and Comptroller, as directed by the Secretary of the 

Army, conducted a doctrine, organization, training, material, 

leadership, personnel, and facilities review of all Department 

of the Army financial management processes, policies, 

organization, and workforce composition. 

Known as the Army Financial Management Optimization (AFMO) 

initiative, the AFMO Task Force made numerous recommendations, 

including a plan to “consolidate selected financial management 

activities” into “Command-Aligned Hubs” (CAH). 

A pilot program to test this CAH approach began October 1, 

2014. While we applaud the Army’s efforts, as the Army works to 

reduce costs and achieve auditable financial statements, it is 

important that the evaluation of any financial managementfocused program whose aim is optimization, consolidation, or 

streamlining, initiated by the military departments, services, 

or defense agencies, be analyzed not just from a service 

perspective but also from a DOD-wide perspective. 

We therefore endorse the Senate committee’s direction to 

the Deputy Chief Management Officer (DCMO) of the Department of 

Defense to conduct a review of the CAH pilot program for any 

DOD-wide impacts and direct that the DCMO’s review be expanded 

to any similar financial management-focused initiatives by other 

military departments, services, or defense agencies in fiscal 

year 2015 for similar impacts. The DCMO shall report findings 

of the review to the congressional defense committees within 120 

days of completion of any pilot program.

Furthermore, the centralized financial management provided 

by the Defense Finance and Accounting Service (DFAS) is 

important to the auditability, cost effectiveness, and 

efficiency of each military department, service, and the defense 

agencies. 

We therefore direct the Under Secretary of Defense 

(Comptroller) to conduct a review of any proposal initiated in 

this fiscal year, or resulting from a pilot program initiated in 

this fiscal year, to permanently transfer functions from DFAS to 

another DOD entity and to assess, at a minimum, the impacts on 

cost, auditability, DFAS capabilities, and the ability of DFAS 
149

to maintain DOD-wide services. The Comptroller shall report 

findings to the congressional defense committees prior to any 

proposed transfer. 

Combatant command efficiency plan

The House bill contained a provision (sec.905) that would 

require the Secretary of Defense to develop a plan to combine 

the back office functions of two or more combatant commands and 

to submit a report on the plan to the congressional defense 

committees within 120 days after the date of the enactment of 

this Act. This section would define the term “back office 

function” as those including, but not limited to, the 

administrative and support functions of a headquarters of a 

combatant command. This section would also limit fiscal year 

2015 funds for the headquarters of the Joint Chiefs of Staff 

until the Secretary of Defense, in coordination with the 

Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, provides the briefing on 

combatant command headquarters personnel and resource 

requirements that was directed in the committee report (H. Rept. 

113–102) accompanying the National Defense Authorization Act for 

Fiscal Year 2014.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision.

The agreement does not include this provision.

We note that the underlying House provision was 

incorporated into another section of this Act. 

Report related to nuclear forces, deterrence, nonproliferation, 

and terrorism

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 910) that would 

require that not later than 90 days after the date of enactment 

the Secretary provide a report to the congressional defense 

committees discussing how the Department of Defense (DOD) will 

manage its mission with respect to issues related to nuclear 

forces, deterrence, nonproliferation, and terrorism.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision.

The agreement does not include this provision.

We note that this provision was included in the House bill 

out of concern that the reorganization of the Undersecretary of 

Defense for Policy which abolished the Assistant Secretary of 

Defense for Global Strategic Affairs, would result in less 

senior-level attention to nuclear forces, deterrence, 

nonproliferation, and terrorism. In this most recent 

reorganization, these subject areas are now transferred to the 
150

Assistant Secretaries of Defense for Strategy, Plans and 

Capabilities and Homeland Defense. 

Section 1305 of the National Defense Authorization Act of 

2008 (P.L. 110-417) noted similar concern regarding a lack of 

focus on strategic and nuclear weapons policy shortly after the 

2007 unauthorized transfer of nuclear weapons from Minot Air 

Force Base, and recommended that the Secretary of Defense should 

consider establishing a position, at the level of Assistant 

Secretary of Defense or Deputy Under Secretary of Defense, 

within the Office of the Under Secretary of Defense for Policy 

to hold primary responsibility for the strategic and nuclear 

weapons policy of DOD. 

We understand that this recent reorganization was part of 

a larger effort to obtain efficiencies across the DOD but we 

remain concerned that appropriate focus should be kept on the 

topics of nuclear forces, deterrence, nonproliferation, and 

terrorism to avoid a repeat of past mistakes, such as at Minot 

Air Force Base in 2007. 

We request a report no later than 90 days after the date 

of enactment to the congressional defense committees on how the 

Secretary of Defense, through the Undersecretary of Defense for 

Policy, shall manage an appropriate focus on the missions 

associated with nuclear forces, deterrence, nonproliferation, 

and terrorism.

Assignment of certain new requirements based on determinations 

of cost-efficiency

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 913) that would 

require that when assigning a new Department of Defense work 

requirement to military or civilian personnel, or to a 

contractor, the assignment shall be made based on a 

determination of which workforce can perform the work in the 

most cost-efficient manner except in cases where the new 

requirement is inherently governmental, closely associated with 

inherently governmental functions, critical, or required by law 

to be performed by military personnel or civilian personnel.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision.

The agreement does not include this provision. 

Prohibition on conversion of functions performed by civilian or 

contractor personnel to performance by military personnel

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 914) that would 

clarify when military personnel can be used to perform functions 

that are currently being performed by civilian or contractor 
151

personnel and would codify relevant Department of Defense 

instructions and policies.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision. 

The agreement does not include this provision. 

Notification of compliance with section relating to procurement 

of services

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 915) that would 

require the Secretary of Defense to ensure compliance with 

existing law regarding appropriate manpower performance and 

provide written notification of compliance to the congressional 

defense committees. This section would also require the 

Comptroller General of the United States to conduct a review of 

such a notification and report to the congressional defense 

committees within 120 days after the date of the provision of 

such a notification.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision.

States Code, to require Department of Defense and military 

department Inspectors General to publicly release reports of 

administrative investigation that confirm misconduct of any 

member of the Senior Executive Service, political appointee, or 

commissioned officer in the Armed Forces in pay grades O-6 or 

above.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision.

counterterrorism campaign in the Republic of Colombia originally 

authorized by section 1021 of the Ronald W. Reagan National 

Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2005 (Public Law 108-

Law 112–81), to authorize DOD to provide additional support for 

activities of other governmental agencies to counter 

transnational organized crime (TOC) in addition to its 

counterdrug activities. The provision would also extend the 

underlying authority through the end of fiscal year 2020 and 

reduce the dollar threshold for a notification on facilities

technical changes.

Sense of Congress regarding security in the Western Hemisphere 

(sec. 1015)

would express the sense of Congress that the Department of 

Defense should continue to support programs that combat illicit 

networking in the United Mexican States and Central America.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision.
155

The agreement includes the House provision with a

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1021) that 

would define the term “combatant and support vessel” that is 

used to prepare the Department of the Navy’s 30-year 

shipbuilding plan.

provision.

The agreement includes this provision.

National Sea-Based Deterrence Fund (sec. 1022)

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1022) that 

would create a National Sea-Based Deterrence Fund to manage the 

obligation and expenditures for the advanced procurement or 

construction of nuclear-powered strategic ballistic missile 

submarines. The provision would also authorize the Secretary of 

Defense to transfer up to $3.5 billion to the Fund from 

unobligated balances from fiscal years 2014, 2015, and 2016.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained a similar 

provision (sec. 1002) that would create a fund to manage the 

construction (including design of vessels), purchase, 

alteration, and conversion of strategic missile submarines. 

The agreement includes a provision that would create a 

National Sea-Based Deterrence Fund to manage the construction 

(including design of vessels), purchase, alteration, and 

conversion of strategic missile submarines. The provision would 

also authorize the transfer of unobligated balances as proposed 

in the House bill. 

Limitation on use of funds for inactivation of U.S.S. George 

Washington (sec. 1023)

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1024) that 

would prohibit spending more than 50 percent of the funds 

authorized and appropriated for the Office of the Secretary of 

Defense until the Secretary of Defense obligates funds for 

commencing, planning, and buying long lead time materials for 
156

the refueling and complex overhaul of the USS George Washington 

(CVN-73). 

The Senate committee-reported bill contained a similar 

provision (sec. 1021) that would prohibit spending any funds for 

inactivation of the USS George Washington unless such tasks are 

identical to tasks that would be necessary to conduct a 

refueling and complex overhaul of the vessel.

The agreement includes the Senate provision.

We note that the administration did not include a budget 

request to support the nuclear refueling and complex overhaul of 

the USS George Washington (CVN-73) in fiscal year 2015. In a 

report to Congress titled “Estimated Impacts of SequestrationLevel Funding” dated April 2014, the Department of Defense 

indicated that “if Congress acts to support outyear funding at 

the PB15 level, the additional $6.3B necessary to retain CVN 73 

would be reflected in next year’s budget.” 

Consistent with section 5062 of title 10, United States 

Code, and multiple testimonies from the combatant commanders, we 

believe that Congress has been unambiguous about the support of 

11 operational aircraft carriers and have provided sufficient 

authorization of appropriations in this Act to maintain this 

carrier force structure. We fully anticipate that the 

administration will support a budget request for fiscal year 

2016 that is consistent with title 10, United States Code. 

Sense of Congress recognizing the anniversary of the sinking of 

U.S.S. Thresher (sec. 1024)

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1025) that 

would express the sense of Congress in recognition of the 

anniversary of the sinking of the USS Thresher. 

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision.

The agreement includes this provision.

Pilot program for sustainment of Littoral Combat Ships on 

extended deployments (sec. 1025)

The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision 

(sec. 1023) that would provide additional flexibility for the 

Secretary of the Navy to maintain Littoral Combat Ships (LCS) by 

allowing government personnel or U.S. contractor personnel to 

conduct corrective and preventive maintenance on an LCS vessel 

regardless of the ship’s location. 

The House bill contained no similar provision. 

The agreement includes the Senate provision with an 

amendment that would allow the Secretary of the Navy to 
157

establish a pilot program for conducting corrective and 

preventive maintenance or repair on LCS vessels operating on 

extended deployment, performed by United States Government 

personnel or United States contractor personnel. The Secretary 

would also be required to prepare a report 120 days after 

completion of this LCS sustainment pilot program and submit that 

report to the congressional defense committees. 

Availability of funds for retirement or inactivation of 

Ticonderoga class cruisers or dock landing ships (sec. 1026)

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1026) that 

would limit the obligation and expenditure of funds authorized 

to be appropriated or otherwise made available for fiscal year 

2015 for the retirement, inactivation, or storage of 

Ticonderoga-class cruisers and Whidbey Island-class amphibious 

ships. This section would also require the modernization of two 

Ticonderoga-class cruisers to begin in fiscal year 2015.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained a similar 

provision (sec. 1022) that would establish rules under which the 

Navy could use resources in the Ship, Modernization, Operations, 

and Sustainment Fund (SMOSF) to implement a plan to: (1) Retain 

11 Ticonderoga-class cruisers and nine Whidbey Island-class and 

Harpers Ferry-class dock landing ships in active service; (2) 

Temporarily inactivate 11 Ticonderoga-class cruisers and three 

Whidbey Island-class dock landing ships; (3) Modernize the 

inactivated ships during the period of their inactivation; and 

(4) Reactivate those ships to replace cruisers and dock landing 

ships retiring at the end of their expected service lives. 

The agreement contains the House provision with an 

amendment that would direct Navy to induct two cruisers for 

modernization with fiscal year 2015 funds. The provision would 

also establish rules under which the Navy could use resources in 

the SMOSF account to modernize and retain the cruisers and dock 

landing ships. 

We are specifically not prohibiting the Navy from 

assigning crews to other duties ashore during the duration of 

the modernization. The Navy has previously modernized a number 

of ship classes that resulted in significant time out of service 

for individual vessels. In those instances, the Navy made 

substantial but temporary reductions in the crew size. We 

believe that the temporary reductions should be commensurate 

with the period of the availability. We direct the Secretary of 

the Navy to ensure that the Navy does adequate planning and 

preparation to ensure that the crews for cruisers and dock 

landing ships emerging from a SMOSF-funded modernization period 

are ready when the ship is delivered from modernization 
158

activities and returned to the fleet. We also expect the 

Secretary to ensure that these ships are maintained in the 

inventory until the end their expected service lives, excluding 

time spent in a phased modernization status.

SUBTITLE D—COUNTERTERRORISM

Extension of authority to make rewards for combating terrorism 

(sec. 1031)

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1031) that 

would extend the authority through fiscal year 2015 for the 

Secretary of Defense to offer and make rewards to a person 

providing information or nonlethal assistance to U.S. Government 

personnel or government personnel of allied forces participating 

in a combined operation with U.S. Armed Forces conducted outside 

the United States against international terrorism or providing 

such information or assistance that is beneficial to force 

protection associated with such an operation.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision.

The agreement includes the House provision. 

Prohibition on use of funds to construct or modify facilities in 

the United States to house detainees transferred from United 

States Naval Station, Guantanamo Bay, Cuba (sec. 1032)

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1032) that 

would prohibit the use of funds available to the Department of 

Defense (DOD) through December 31, 2015, to modify or construct 

any facility in the United States, its territories, or 

possessions to house detainees transferred from the U.S. Naval 

Station, Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, for purposes of detaining or 

imprisoning such detainees under DOD custody or control unless 

authorized by Congress. 

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision.

The agreement includes the House provision with an 

amendment to extend an identical prohibition contained in 

section 1033 of the National Defense Authorization Act for 

Fiscal Year 2014 (Public Law 113-66) by 1 year through December 

31, 2015.

individuals detained at United States Naval Station, Guantanamo 

Bay, Cuba (sec. 1033)

2015.

SUBTITLE E—MISCELLANEOUS AUTHORITIES AND 

LIMITATIONS

Modification of Department of Defense authority for humanitarian 

demining assistance and stockpiled conventional munitions 

assistance programs (sec. 1041)

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1041) that 

would modify the reporting requirements and definitions 

contained in section 407 of title 10, United States Code, 

regarding humanitarian demining assistance and stockpiled 

conventional munitions assistance. 

The Senate committee-reported bill contained a similar 

provision (sec. 1201) that would modify the definitions 

contained in section 407 of title 10, United States Code, 

regarding humanitarian demining assistance and stockpiled 

conventional munitions assistance.

The agreement includes the House provision. 

Airlift service (sec. 1042)

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 822) that would 

amend chapter 157 of title 10, United States Code, by inserting 

a new section that would require transportation of passengers or 

property by Civil Reserve Air Fleet (CRAF)-eligible aircraft 

obtained by the Secretary of Defense or the Secretary of a 

military department through a contract for airlift service to be 

provided only by a covered air carrier.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision. 

The agreement includes the House provision with an 

amendment that would conform the provision to language on the 

same matter contained in title 49, United States Code. 
160

As operations in the U.S. Central Command area of 

responsibility draw down, there will be reduced demand for 

airlift. 

The CRAF program was created to ensure the nation can 

address airlift requirements despite fluctuations in 

requirements over time. During this transition back to pre-1990 

levels of demand for airlift services, we believe it is 

imperative to maintain both organic and commercial capacities to 

meet operational demands and unknown future requirements. 

Therefore, we direct the Department of Defense (DOD) to 

work closely with CRAF program partners to ensure that DOD 

establishes “appropriate levels for peacetime cargo airlift 

augmentation in order to promote the effectiveness of the Civil 

Reserve Air Fleet and provide training within the military 

aircraft system,” as directed in the National Airlift Policy.

Authority to accept certain voluntary legal support services 

(sec. 1043)

agencies (including any organizations composed of State, local, 

and tribal agencies); and (2) Defense contractors, when those 

contractors are transporting supplies for, or destined for, a 

Department of Defense entity. 
161

would repeal section 9513 of title 10, United States Code, 

relating to the use of military installations by commercial air 

carriers doing business with the Department of Defense.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained an identical 

provision (sec. 351). 

The agreement includes this provision.

Inclusion of Chief of the National Guard Bureau among leadership 

of the Department of Defense provided physical protection and 

personal security (sec. 1046)

The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision 

(sec. 1044) that would amend section 1074 of the National 

Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2008 (Public Law 110-

181) to include the Chief of the National Guard Bureau as one of 

the specified persons in the Department of Defense who, by

The agreement includes this provision.

Inclusion of regional organizations in authority for assignment 

of civilian employees of the Department of Defense as advisors 

to foreign ministries of defense (sec. 1047)

The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision 

(sec. 1045) that would amend section 1081 of the National 

Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2011 (Public Law 111–

84), as most recently amended by section 1094 of the National 

Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2014 (Public Law 113–

66), to expand the authority of the Secretary of Defense to 

provide Department of Defense (DOD) advisors to regional 

organizations.

clarifying amendment.

We are concerned about the implementation of the Ministry 

of Defense Advisors (MODA) program, specifically the process 

through which nations and activities are proposed and 
162

prioritized and how civilian personnel are selected. We also 

encourage the Secretary to keep the congressional defense 

committees informed of the MODA program as it is further 

institutionalized as one of DOD's Defense Institution Building 

activities.

Report and limitation on availability of funds for aviation 

foreign internal defense program (sec. 1048)

that validates program requirements. 

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision.

The agreement includes the House provision with an 

amendment that would fence 50 percent of the funds made

amendment.

SUBTITLE F—STUDIES AND REPORTS

Protection of top-tier defense-critical infrastructure from 

electromagnetic pulse (sec. 1051)

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1061) that 

would require the Secretary of Defense to submit a certification 

by June 2015 that all defense mission-critical infrastructure of 

the Department of Defense that requires protection from the 

adverse effects of man-made or naturally occurring electromagnetic pulse (EMP) that receives power from non-military power 

sources, is protected from such effects.
163

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision.

The agreement includes a provision that would require the 

Secretary of Defense to report by June 2015 whether such toptier defense-critical infrastructure that requires EMP 

protection is protected from EMP. The provision would also 

require that, if any such infrastructure is not protected 

against EMP, the report shall describe what actions would be 

required to achieve such protection.

Response of the Department of Defense to compromises of 

classified information (sec. 1052)

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1062) that 

would require the Secretary of Defense to submit a report to the 

congressional defense committees within 60 days after the date 

of the enactment of this Act on actions taken by the Secretary 

regarding significant compromises of classified information. 

The report would include a description of any changes to 

Department of Defense (DOD) policies or guidance relating to 

significant compromises of classified information, an overview 

of mitigation efforts, a description of the resources dedicated 

to efforts relating to such compromises, a description of the 

Secretary's plan to continue evaluating and mitigating any 

damages, and a general description and estimate of the cost 

associated with mitigating such compromises. This section would 

also require updates to the initial report on a semiannual basis 

during calendar years 2015-18.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision, but the classified annex to the Senate report 

accompanying S.2410 (S. Rept. 113-176) of the Carl Levin 

National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2015 also 

included direction for DOD on this issue.

The agreement includes the House provision with an 

amendment that would sunset the reporting requirement after 2016 

and require quarterly updates rather than semi-annual reporting. 

However, we understand that the Information Review Task Force, 

within the Defense Intelligence Agency, and the Mitigation 

Oversight Task Force, within the Joint Staff, are already 

producing quarterly reports regarding the disclosure and 

mitigation measures. Providing the Mitigation Oversight Task 

Force and Information Review Task Force reports to the 

appropriate congressional committees, will be considered 

sufficient to answer the requirements of this provision, 

assuming that all the elements of the provision are addressed. 
164

Study on joint analytic capability of the Department of Defense 

(sec. 1053)

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1064) that

keeping with the goals of the U.S.-Portugal Permanent Bilateral 

Commission; and (3) The congressional defense committees are 

briefed on the assessment’s results. 

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision.

The agreement includes the House provision with an 

amendment that would require that prior to any action to realign 

forces at the Lajes Air Force Base, the Secretary of Defense 

must certify to the congressional defense committees that: (1) 

The action is supported by a EICA; and (2) The Secretary has 

determined, based on an analysis of operational requirements,

would substantially modify section 118 of title 10, United 

States Code, relating to the timing, analysis, structure, 

review, and submission of a new Defense Strategy Review.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision.

The agreement includes the House provision with amendments 

that clarify the elements of the Defense Strategy Review and 

duties of the National Defense Panel.
170

Biennial surveys of Department of Defense civilian employees on 

workplace and gender relations matters (sec. 1073)

The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision 

(sec. 1081) that would amend chapter 23 of title 10, United 

States Code, to require biennial surveys of civilian employees 

of the Department of Defense (DOD) to solicit information on 

gender issues, including issues relating to gender-based 

assault, harassment, and discrimination, and the climate in the 

DOD for forming professional relationships between male and 

female employees of the DOD. The provision would also require 

the Secretary of Defense to submit to the Committees on Armed 

Services of the Senate and the House of Representatives a report 

on the feasibility of conducting similar surveys of military 

dependents and DOD contractors. 

The House bill contained no similar provision.

The agreement includes the Senate provision.

We expect DOD to implement this provision through 

available information technology. Further, we direct the 

Secretary to inform the Committees on Armed Services of the 

Senate and the House of Representatives on actions taken to 

address findings of the biennial surveys.

Revision to statute of limitations for aviation insurance claims 

(sec. 1074)

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1073) that 

would amend section 44309 of title 49, United States Code, by 

clarifying that the claimant for civil actions must present a 

claim to the Secretary of Transportation and have it denied 

before instituting a civil action against the United States. 

Additionally, this section would clarify that an insurance claim 

must be made within 2 years of the loss, or for an insurance 

claim made by a person with whom the insured has no privity of 

contract, the earlier of either 60 days after final judgment by 

a court or 6 years after the date of the loss.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision.

The agreement includes this provision.

Pilot program for the Human Terrain System (sec. 1075)

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1074) that 

would require the Secretary of the Army to conduct a pilot 

program to use Human Terrain System assets in the U.S. Pacific 

Command area of responsibility to support Phase 0 shaping 
171

operations and to support the theater security cooperation plans 

of the geographic combatant commander.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision.

The agreement includes the House provision with an 

amendment that would provide the Secretary of the Army some 

flexibility in the establishment of the Human Terrain System 

pilot program.

Should the pilot program under this authority be carried 

out, we direct the Secretary of the Army to brief the 

congressional defense committees on the milestones, metrics, 

deliverables, and resources needed to execute the program. The 

brief should include an assessment of the value of the program 

in comparison to the various other analytic tools and techniques 

that are at the disposal of the military.

Clarification of policies on management of special use airspace 

of Department of Defense (sec. 1076)

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1075) that 

would allow the Secretary of Defense to enter into a memorandum 

of understanding with a non-Department of Defense (DOD) entity 

that is engaged in the test range program authorized under 

section 332(c) of the Federal Aviation Administration 

Modernization and Reform Act of 2012 (Public Law 112–95). Such 

entity would be allowed access to non-regulatory special use 

airspace if such access is used by the entity as part of such 

test range program and such access would not interfere with the 

activities of the Secretary or otherwise interrupt or delay 

missions or training of the DOD.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision. A proposed amendment to the Senate committee-reported 

bill (amendment number 3578) contained a provision that would 

allow the Secretary of Defense to authorize use by another 

department or agency of the Federal government of special use 

airspace at a DOD installation if such use would support or 

benefit DOD, or support some national security interest. Access 

could not be granted if the use of airspace would interfere with 

the assigned mission of the commander of the installation. 

The agreement contains the House provision with an 

amendment that would direct DOD to issue guidance clarifying 

policies on the appropriate management of special use airspace 

within DOD, and on policies governing access by users from 

outside the DOD to special use airspace managed by DOD. The 

provision would require the Secretary of Defense to issue such 

guidance within 90 days of enactment of this Act, and to provide 
172

the congressional defense committees a briefing on such guidance 

within 120 days of enactment of this Act. 

The Joint Explanatory Statement accompanying the National 

Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2014 (Public Law 113–

66) noted that: (1) developing established procedures to 

integrate unmanned aircraft systems into the National Airspace 

System will be very important in allowing both DOD and non-DOD 

entities to train with and operate unmanned aircraft systems on 

a routine basis; and (2) developing these procedures could 

include the use of FAA-designated DOD non-regulatory special use 

airspace.

Subsequently, DOD released guidance to the Services and 

DOD components to prescribe guidelines for local commanders to 

grant access to special use airspace. DOD officials assure us 

that their guidance was not intended to prevent local commanders 

from exercising authority to allow access within the DOD 

guidelines. Nevertheless, we understand that local commanders 

have interpreted the DOD guidelines as either allowing or 

preventing the local installation commander from negotiating a 

memorandum of understanding (MOU) under which access to special 

use airspace could be granted. 

The provision would direct the Secretary of Defense to 

move expeditiously to correct such misunderstandings of the 

guidelines on access to special use airspace, including the 

authority of local commanders to enter into a memorandum of 

understanding for the use of special use airspace by any 

department or agency of the Federal Government, or state 

governments, to include those engaged in the Federal Aviation 

Administration test range program, participating in the Robotic 

Aircraft for Public Safety program, or participating in other 

activities of a similar nature.

Department of Defense policies on community involvement in 

Department community outreach events (sec. 1077)

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 354) that would 

authorize service secretaries to enter into a contract or 

agreement with a non-federal civic organization to conduct or 

support an air show or open house to feature any unit, aircraft, 

vessel, equipment, or servicemembers under the jurisdiction of 

the secretary, and would authorize the secretary to charge or 

authorize a nominal admission fee to attend a military air show 

or open house.

The House bill also contained a provision (sec. 355) to 

amend section 974 of title 10, United States Code, to require 

the secretary concerned to accept contributions of money, 

personal property, or services on the condition that such money, 
173

property, or services be used for the benefit of a military 

musical unit under the jurisdiction of the Secretary.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision 

(sec. 1065) that would require the Secretary of Defense to 

submit to the congressional defense committees a report on the 

policies of the Department of Defense (DOD) on the involvement 

of non-federal entities in DOD community outreach events that 

feature any unit, aircraft, vessel, equipment, or members of the 

Armed Forces.

The agreement includes the Senate provision with an 

amendment that would require the Secretary of Defense to submit 

to the Committees on Armed Services of the Senate and the House 

of Representatives, not later than 180 days after enactment of 

this Act, a report on the policies of DOD on the involvement of 

non-federal entities in DOD community outreach events (including 

air shows, parades, open houses, and performances by military 

musical units) that feature any unit, aircraft, vessel, 

equipment, or members of the Armed Forces in order to increase 

the involvement of non-federal entities in such events.

Notification of foreign threats to information technology 

systems impacting national security (sec. 1078)

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1083) that 

would require the Secretary of Defense and the Director of 

National Intelligence to submit to the appropriate congressional 

committees a notification of each instance in which the 

Secretary or the Director determine through analysis or 

reporting that an information technology or telecommunications 

component from a company suspected of being influenced by a 

foreign country, or a suspected affiliate of such a company, is 

competing for or has been awarded a contract to include the 

technology of such company or such affiliate into a covered 

network. Each notification would be required to include:

(1) A description of each such instance, including 

an identification of the company of interest and the 

network affected;

(2) An analysis of the potential risks and the 

actions that can be taken to mitigate such risks; and

(3) A description of any follow up or other response 

actions to be taken.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision.

The agreement includes the House provision with an 

amendment that would limit the application of the provision to 

the Secretary of Defense and the reportable instances to threats 

to information technology or network components by an agent of a 
174

foreign power in which compromises would pose a significant risk 

to the programs and operations of the Department of Defense. In 

addition, the Secretary of Defense would be required to work 

with other appropriate government agencies to develop a plan to 

respond to the reported instance. The provision makes clear 

that the Secretary shall use existing authorities and open 

source information to make determinations regarding reportable 

instances. 

Pilot program to rehabilitate and modify homes of disabled and 

low-income veterans (sec. 1079)

The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision 

(sec. 1085) that would require the Secretary of Housing and 

Urban Development to conduct a pilot program to award grants to 

qualified non-profit organizations to rehabilitate and modify 

the primary residence of eligible veterans.

The House bill contained no similar provision.

The agreement includes the Senate provision with an 

amendment that would limit the use of funds under this program 

to those veterans who the Secretary determines are residing in, 

and reasonably intend to continue residing in, a primary 

residence owned by such veterans or family members. The 

amendment would also strike language in the underlying Senate 

provision that would have required the Secretary to adhere to 

certain preferences in awarding grants under the pilot program, 

and would have limited qualified organizations to those 

possessing certain expertise or other criteria.

LEGISLATIVE PROVISIONS NOT ADOPTED

Repeal of limitation on Inspector General audits of certain 

financial statements

Sense of the Senate on sequestration

The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision 

(sec. 1003) pertaining to sequestration.

The House bill contained no similar provision.

The agreement does not include this provision.
175

Management of Defense information systems

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1004) that 

would amend section 2222 of title 10, United States Code, to 

expand certification requirements, investment review processing 

and enterprise architecture requirements from defense business 

systems to all defense information technology systems.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision. 

The agreement does not include this provision. 

Elsewhere in this report, we have expressed our concerns 

over the Department of Defense’s (DOD) ability to effectively 

and efficiently acquire the information technology systems it 

will need. While part of that challenge is in the acquisition 

process, we also recognize that a significant problem in DOD’s 

larger management and oversight for IT investments. For 

example, in our discussions with industry on acquisition 

improvement, we received suggestions for improving the 

requirements generation and validation process, as well as 

aligning IT outcomes with the strategic goals of the 

organization. These things require a robust management process, 

and should inform acquisition, not the other way around.

We believe that DOD has a valuable process established in 

section 2222 of title 10, United States Code for dealing with 

defense business systems. We see value in having that process 

expanded to each of the various IT mission areas, especially the 

processes that conduct business process reengineering (BPR) 

prior to making acquisition decisions. Currently, the Deputy 

Chief Management Officer is focused on business systems, but we 

think their role could be extended to apply process improvement 

and BPR techniques to DOD’s other IT mission areas as well.

We recognize it may be premature at this point, though, to 

make such significant changes. We understand DOD is reviewing 

its internal processes, and new leadership is looking to mold 

the organization in a way to achieve its strategic goals. We 

look forward to seeing how these efforts progress, and will 

consider if similar actions that were proposed by the House bill 

may be warranted in the future.

Report on auditable financial statements

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1005) that 

would require a report on auditable financial statements.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision. 

The agreement does not include this provision. 
176

We note that the Department of Defense (DOD) provides 

progress reports on each service and defense agency as part of 

its semi-annual report on the Financial Improvement and Audit 

Readiness (FIAR) plan, required by section 1003(b) of the 

National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2010 (P.L. 

111-84). 

We also note that DOD posts its semi-annual reports on the 

FIAR plan electronically on a website for public review.

Report on implementing audit reporting requirements

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1006) that

would require a report on implementing certain audit reporting 

requirements.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision.

The agreement does not include this provision. 

We note that the Department of Defense (DOD) did not 

validate its statement of budgetary resources as ready for audit 

by September 30, 2014, as required by section 1005 of the 

National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2013 (P.L. 

112-239). 

We expect that DOD will explain why this objective was not 

achieved, describe any factors which may have impeded 

achievement of the objective, and detail a remedial plan through 

which DOD will address any such impediments and proceed to 

validate its statement of budgetary resources as ready for 

audit. 

We expect that DOD will include this information in its 

next semi-annual report on the Financial Improvement and Audit 

Readiness (FIAR) plan, required by section 1003(b) of the 

National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2010 (P.L. 

111-84). 

We also note that DOD posts its semi-annual reports on the 

FIAR plan electronically on a web site for public review.

Counter-drug Training Centers within the United States for 

federal, state, and local law enforcement to the items for which 

the Secretary of Defense may provide funds to the governor of a 

state who submits to the Secretary a state drug interdiction and 

counter-drug activities plan.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision.

The agreement does not include this provision.

We note the role of the National Guard Counter-drug 

mission in ensuring the security of the U.S. Homeland. As part 

of that mission, the National Guard Counter-drug Schools 

continue to play an important role in training and educating 

local, state, and federal law enforcement and other entities on 

counter-drug-related matters. We recognize the benefits of 

maintaining and supporting the National Guard counterdrug 

strategy.

Naval Base, Guantanamo Bay, Cuba (GTMO) to the United States if 

the Secretary of Defense submits a detailed plan to close the 

GTMO detention facility to the appropriate congressional 

committees and Congress fails to enact a joint resolution of 

disapproval under expedited procedures. The provision would 

authorize the Secretary, if a joint resolution of disapproval is 

not enacted, to transfer Guantanamo detainees to custody in the 

United States for detention, trial, and incarceration. 

The House bill contained no similar provision.

The agreement does not include this provision.

Affairs continues to determine qualifying service in Vietnam for 

veterans who file a claim for compensation benefits.

Enhanced authority for provision of support to foreign military 

liaison officers of foreign countries while assigned to the 

Department of Defense (sec. 1203)

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1203) that 

would amend section 1051a of title 10, United States Code, to 

authorize the Secretary of Defense to provide administrative and 

support services, to include certain training programs, for 

liaison officers of a foreign country, while such liaison 

officers are assigned temporarily to the headquarters of a 

combatant command, component command, or subordinate operational 

command of the United States. This section would further amend 

section 1051a of title 10, United States Code, to include a 

limitation on the authorized number of liaison officers and 

amount of unreimbursed support for travel, subsistence, and 

medical care expenses per fiscal year for any such liaison 

officer. This section would also require the Secretary of 

Defense to submit to the congressional defense committees an 

annual report on January 31 of each year from 2016–18 on the 

summary of expenses incurred by the United States for liaison 

officers of a developing country, and include the Department of 

Defense’s definition of a “developing country” as used for the 

purposes of this authority.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained a similar 

provision (sec. 1263).

The agreement includes the House provision with a 

clarifying amendment.

Prohibition on use of funds for assistance to units of foreign 

security forces that have committed a gross violation of human 

rights (sec. 1204)

The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision 

(sec. 1202) that would amend chapter 134 of title 10, United 

States Code, to include a limitation on the use of funds for 

training, equipment, or other assistance for the members of a 

unit of a foreign security force if the Secretary of Defense has 

credible information that such unit has committed a gross 

violation of human rights. 

The House bill contained no similar provision. 

The agreement includes the Senate provision with an 

amendment that would make technical changes and incorporate the 

requirement to submit an annual report from section 1204 of H.R. 

4435, "Annual Report on Human Rights Vetting and Verification 

Procedures of the Department of Defense" into the Senate 

provision.

Codification and enhancement of authority to build the capacity 

of foreign security forces (sec. 1205)

The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision 

(sec. 1205) that would codify in title 10, United States Code, 

the authority for the Secretary of Defense to conduct a program 

to train and equip certain foreign security forces to build 

their capacity to conduct counterterrorism operations and 

stability operations under section 1206 of the National Defense 

Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2006 (Public Law 109-163), as 

amended (the “section 1206 authority”). The provision would 

also modify the limitations on the amount of funds that could be 

used under the section 1206 authority. 

The House bill contained no similar provision.

The agreement includes the Senate provision with a number 

of technical and clarifying amendments.

We expect that any small-scale military construction 

projects authorized under this section would be a supporting, 

logical component of a comprehensive section 1206 program, and 

not a stand-alone project.
196

Training of security forces and associated security ministries 

of foreign countries to promote respect for the rule of law and 

human rights (sec. 1206)

(sec. 1204) that would authorize the Secretary of Defense to

concurrence of the Secretary of State and the provision would 

define the activities considered to be human rights training.

The House bill contained no similar provision.

The agreement includes the Senate provision with a 

clarifying amendment. 

Not later than 180 days after the enactment of this Act, 

the Secretary of Defense, in coordination with the Secretary of 

State, shall provide the Committees on Armed Services and 

Committees on Appropriations of the House of Representatives and 

Senate a briefing on the initial implementation activities 

associated with this new authority and other related matters 

deemed appropriate by the Secretary of Defense. 

Cross servicing agreements for loan of personnel protection and 

personnel survivability equipment in coalition operations (sec. 

1207)

The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision 

(sec. 1207) that would codify in title 10, United States Code, 

an authority for the Secretary of Defense to enter into 

arrangements under acquisition and cross servicing agreements 

(ACSA) to loan equipment for personnel protection and personnel 

survivability. The provision would authorize such loans to 

coalition forces for their use in coalition operations with the 

United States as part of a contingency operation or a 

peacekeeping operation under the United Nations Charter or 

another international agreement. The provision would also 

include a waiver of the requirement to reimburse the United 

States for the loss of such equipment in the event it is damaged 

or destroyed during combat operations for which the equipment 

was loaned. 

The House bill contained no similar provision.

The agreement includes the Senate provision with an 

amendment that would provide statutory authority through the end 

of fiscal year 2019 for the Secretary of Defense, with the 

concurrence of the Secretary of State, to enter into 

arrangements to use ACSAs to loan personnel protection and 

personnel survivability equipment to coalition forces 
197

participating in such coalition operations with the United 

States. The agreement would also authorize the loaning of such 

equipment in connection with the training of coalition forces to 

be deployed to those operations. 

We note that a similar authority to loan personnel 

protection and personnel survivability equipment under ACSAs to 

allies and other partners has made an important contribution to 

coalition operations in Afghanistan. The Department of Defense 

has interpreted this temporary authority narrowly, and we urge 

the Department to take a similar approach in the implementation 

of any program under this section. 

Extension and modification of authority for support of special 

operations to combat terrorism (sec. 1208)

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1241) that

Year 2012 (Public Law 112-81). 

The Senate committee-reported bill contained a similar 

provision (sec. 1208) that would extend the authority through 

fiscal year 2016, and increase the annual cap on the authority 

from $50.0 million to $60.0 million.

amendment that would extend the authority through fiscal year 

2017 and increase the annual cap on the authority from $50.0 

million to $75.0 million.

Authority to provide assistance to the vetted Syrian opposition 

(sec. 1209)

The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision 

(sec. 1209) that would authorize the Secretary of Defense to 

provide equipment, supplies, training, and defense services to 

assist the vetted elements of the Syrian opposition for the 

purposes of: (1) Defending the Syrian people from the attacks of 

the Syrian regime; (2) Protecting the United States, our friends 

and allies, and the Syrian people from terrorist elements; and 

(3) Promoting the conditions for a negotiated settlement to end 

the conflict in Syria. The provision would also establish 

requirements for an element of the Syrian opposition to be 

deemed vetted, permit the Secretary of Defense to provide 

assistance to third countries for purposes of the provision of 

training and equipment, and provide the authority to accept 
198

contributions from other nations. The Secretary of State’s 

concurrence would be required to conduct activities under this 

authority.

The House bill contained no similar provision.

The agreement includes the Senate provision with a 

clarifying amendment.

We note that the agreement includes language similar to 

the Continuing Appropriations Resolution, 2015 (Public Law 113-

164) to provide assistance to the appropriately vetted elements 

of the Syrian opposition.

 Additionally, we note that sustainment, at a minimum, 

includes the provision of logistics, intelligence, 

communications, and other enabling support necessary to maintain 

operations in support of the mission; supply of food, fuel, 

arms, munitions, and equipment; maintenance of equipment; and 

repair and renovation of facilities.

use up to $10.0 million in funds to provide logistic support for 

the transfer of excess defense articles to allied forces 

participating with U.S. armed forces in bilateral or 

multilateral training activities. 

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision.

The agreement includes the House provision with an 

amendment that would authorize the Secretary of Defense to use 

up to $10.0 million in each of fiscal years 2015 and 2016 to 

provide logistic support for the transfer of excess defense 

articles in Afghanistan to the military forces of countries with 

which the U.S. Armed Forces plan to conduct bilateral or 

multilateral training overseas during those fiscal years. 

Biennial report on programs carried out by the Department of 

Defense to provide training, equipment, or other assistance or 

reimbursement to foreign security forces (sec. 1211)

The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision 

(sec. 1211) that would require a biennial report to Congress in 

fiscal years 2016, 2018, and 2020 on the Department of Defense 

programs to provide training, equipment, or other security 

assistance or reimbursement to foreign security forces. 

The House bill contained no similar provision.

Law 112-81), as amended, for the Commanders’ Emergency Response 

Program (CERP) in Afghanistan. 

The Senate committee-reported bill contained a similar 

provision (sec. 1221).

amendment that would limit the total funds available for the 

CERP program in fiscal year 2015 to $10.0 million and make other 

technical and clarifying amendments. 

Extension and modification of authority for reimbursement of 

certain coalition nations for support provided to United States

section 1233 of the National Defense Authorization Act for 

Fiscal Year 2008 (Public Law 110-181), as amended, for the 

Secretary of Defense to reimburse coalition nations for support

section in fiscal year 2015 to $1.2 billion and of those funds, 

no more than $900.0 million would be available for Pakistan. 

The provision would also extend certain notification and 

certification requirements relating to any payments under this 

section to Pakistan. In addition, the provision would limit the 

Secretary from waiving the certification requirements with 

regard to $300.0 million of the $900.0 million authorized for 

Pakistan unless the Secretary can make certain additional 
200

certifications regarding Pakistan’s military operations in North 

Waziristan. 

The agreement includes the Senate provision with an 

amendment that would expand the authority under section 1233 of 

Public Law 110-181 to allow the Secretary of Defense to 

reimburse coalition nations for support provided to U.S. 

military operations in Iraq or in Operation Enduring Freedom in 

Afghanistan. The amendment to the Senate provision would also 

increase the amount of funding authorized under this section for 

Pakistan to $1.0 billion. The amendment would clarify the 

additional certification requirements that the Secretary would 

need to make to invoke the waiver with regard to the full amount 

of funding authorized under this section for Pakistan. 

One-year extension of logistical support for coalition forces 

supporting certain United States military operations (sec. 1223)

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1213) that 

would extend certain authorities for the support of coalition 

forces participating with the United States in military 

operations in Afghanistan. The provision would extend current 

authorities to (1) provide coalition forces with logistical 

support under section 1234 of the National Defense Authorization 

Act for Fiscal Year 2008 (Public Law 110-181); and (2) use 

acquisition and cross-servicing agreements to lend those forces

provision (sec. 1225) that would extend the authority under 

section 1234 of Public Law 110-181 to provide logistical support 

to coalition forces participating with the United States in 

military operations in Afghanistan. 

The agreement includes the Senate provision with an 

amendment that would expand this authority to allow the 

provision of logistical support to such coalition forces in 

Afghanistan and Iraq.

United States plan for sustaining the Afghanistan National 

Security Forces through the end of fiscal year 2017 (sec. 1224)

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1216) that

they are used for their intended purpose and to mitigate waste, 

fraud and abuse. 

The Senate committee-reported bill contained a similar 

provision (sec. 1226).

amendment that would prohibit the obligation or expenditure of 

fiscal year 2015 DOD funds for construction projects in 

Afghanistan in excess of $1 million that cannot be authorized

prohibition to be waived if the Secretary of Defense or the 

Commander of U.S. Forces in Afghanistan submits to the relevant 

congressional committee a report containing (1) a detailed plan 

for the monitoring of the funds for the project, and (2) certain 

specific determinations regarding the project’s contribution to

encourage the transition of reintegration efforts from the 

Department of Defense to the appropriate institutions of the 

Government of Afghanistan, and accordingly expect that there 

will not be a need for this DOD reintegration authority after 

fiscal year 2015. 

Clearance of unexploded ordnance on former United States 

training ranges in Afghanistan (sec. 1233)

The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision 

(sec. 1229) that would authorize the Secretary of Defense to use

(sec. 1228) that would require the Secretary of Defense, in 

consultation with the Secretary of State, to submit a detailed 

report to the appropriate committees of Congress on the nature 

and extent of bilateral security cooperation between the United 

States and Pakistan.

The House bill contained no similar provision.

The agreement includes the Senate provision with a 

technical and clarifying amendment.

Authority to provide assistance to counter the Islamic State in 

Iraq and the Levant (sec. 1236)

Following passage of the House bill and the Senate 

committee-reported bill, the administration submitted to the 

congressional defense committees a legislative proposal that 

would authorize to be appropriated to the Iraq Train and Equip 

Fund up to $1.6 billion to provide assistance to military and 

other security forces of or associated with the Government of 

Iraq, including Kurdish and tribal security forces, with a 

national mission, to counter the Islamic State in Iraq and the 

Levant (ISIL). 

The agreement includes the proposal for the Iraq Train and 

Equip Fund with certain technical and clarifying amendments. 

Assistance under this section would be restricted to no more 

than 25 percent of the amounts authorized until the Secretary of 

Defense, in coordination with the Secretary of State, submits a 

report on the plan for providing such assistance and re-training 

and re-equipping the Iraqi Security Forces, and the President 

submits a report on how such assistance fits within a broader 

regional strategy. 

We note the significant contribution that Kurdish security 

forces have made to countering ISIL’s advance. We understand 

that the administration’s plan includes assistance to train and 

equip 3 brigades of Kurdish peshmerga. Accordingly, we expect 

that a significant portion of the assistance under this 

authority will be provided to meet the requirements of the 

Kurdish security forces and urge the Secretary of Defense to 

ensure that such assistance is delivered in a timely manner to 
206

such forces. We further expect the Secretary of Defense to keep 

the congressional defense committees fully informed as this plan 

is developed and implemented, including any arrangements to 

ensure that such assistance for Kurdish security forces is 

promptly delivered to those forces. 

The provision is also amended to add local security forces 

with a national security mission to the list of forces 

authorized to receive assistance under this section. We believe 

that, for purposes of this section, local security forces should 

include local forces that are committed to protecting highly 

vulnerable ethnic and religious minority communities in the 

Nineveh Plain and elsewhere from the ISIL threat. 

We note that among the lessons learned from the execution 

of previous large-scale train-and-equip funds in Iraq and 

Afghanistan has been the need for high-level oversight and 

requirements coordination, such as through the Afghanistan 

Requirements Oversight Council (AROC), to ensure that 

significant expenditures from the fund are aligned with 

validated requirements and subject to adequate oversight. We 

expect that the Department of Defense (DOD) will utilize a 

mechanism and procedures similar to the AROC in carrying out the 

program under the ITEF. Therefore, we direct the Secretary of 

Defense to report to the congressional defense committees, not 

later than 60 days after the date of enactment of this Act, on 

the procedures and mechanism DOD will use to ensure that major 

expenditures from the fund are made only pursuant to an 

appropriately validated need and subject to adequate monitoring 

and evaluation.

Extension and modification of authority to support operations 

and activities of the Office of Security Cooperation in Iraq 

(sec. 1237)

Fiscal Year 2012 (Public Law 112-81), as amended, for the use of 

Department of Defense funds to support the operations and 

activities of the Office of Security Cooperation in Iraq (OSCI). The provision would also clarify the kinds of training 

activities that the OSC-I is authorized to conduct in support of 

the Iraqi Ministry of Defense and the Counter Terrorism Service. 

The Senate committee-reported bill contained a similar 

provision (sec. 1231).

The agreement includes the House provision with an 

amendment that would authorize the use of up to $140.0 million 
207

to support OSC-I operations and activities during fiscal year 

2015. 

SUBTITLE C—MATTERS RELATING TO THE RUSSIAN 

FEDERATION

Limitation on military cooperation between the United States and

would prohibit the use of Department of Defense (DOD) funds for 

fiscal year 2015 for bilateral military-to-military contact or 

cooperation between the Governments of the United States and the 

Russian Federation until the Secretary of Defense makes certain 

specified certifications to the appropriate congressional 

committees regarding Russia’s actions in Ukraine, its compliance 

with its arms control obligations, and its foreign military 

sales or transfers. 

The Senate committee-reported bill contained a similar 

provision (sec. 1242(e)).

The agreement includes the House provision with an 

amendment that would prohibit the use of DOD funds for fiscal 

year 2015 for bilateral military-to-military cooperation between 

the United States and the Russia Federation until the Secretary 

of Defense, in coordination with the Secretary of State, 

certifies that Russia has ceased its occupation of Ukrainian 

territory and its aggressive activities that threaten Ukraine 

and North Atlantic Treaty Organization members. The amendment 

authorizes the Secretary of Defense to waive the prohibition if 

the Secretary determines that doing so is in the U.S. national 

security interest and the Secretary provides prior notification 

to the appropriate committees of Congress, including certain 

specified information. 

Notification and assessment of proposal to modify or introduce 

new aircraft or sensors for flight by the Russian Federation 

under Open Skies Treaty (sec. 1242)

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1222) that 

would limit the use of funds to authorize or permit a 

certification by the United States of a proposal by the Russian 

Federation to change any sensor package on a Russian Open Skies 

aircraft, unless certain specified conditions are met.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision.
208

The agreement includes a provision that would require the 

President, not later than 30 days after the Russian Federation 

provides notification to all States Parties to the Open Skies 

Treaty (Treaty) of its intention to seek certification to 

change, modify, or introduce a new aircraft or sensor under the 

Treaty, to notify the appropriate committees of Congress and 

provide the relevant details of the Russian proposal. The 

provision would also require, not later than 30 days prior to 

the date of intended approval of certification of such aircraft 

or sensor by the United States, the Director of National 

Intelligence, jointly with the Secretary of Defense and the 

Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, and in consultation with 

the Secretary of State, to submit to the appropriate committees 

of Congress an assessment of the national security implications 

for the United States of any new aircraft or sensor proposed to 

be deployed by the Russian Federation under the Treaty. 

Further, the provision would require that any such assessment 

include a description of any plans by the United States to 

mitigate any negative effect of the proposed new Russian sensor 

or aircraft on the national security of the United States, 

including an analysis of the costs and effectiveness of any such 

plans. 

In any case where an assessment of national security 

implications is prepared in response to this provision, we 

expect the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff to take into 

account the views of the relevant regional and functional 

combatant commander on the security implications of a proposed 

Russian change in aircraft or sensor for Open Skies overflights 

in their assigned area of responsibility. We note that the 

Department of Defense committed to provide information 

concerning the views of relevant regional and functional 

combatant commanders relating to proposals under the Treaty to 

the committees in November 2014.

Limitations on providing certain missile defense information to 

the Russian Federation (sec. 1243)

would extend by 1 year the limitations in section 1246(c) of the 

National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2014 (Public 

Law 113-66) on providing certain missile defense information to 

the Russian Federation. The provision would also place

remains in the national security interests of the United States 

to remain a party to the INF Treaty and related treaties while 

the Russian Federation is in non-compliance with the INF Treaty.

The Senate committee-passed bill contained no similar 

provision.

The agreement includes a provision that would require the 

President to submit, not later than 90 days after the enactment 

of this Act, a report to the appropriate congressional

committees on Russian non-compliance with the INF Treaty, 

including elements set forth in section 1061 of the National 

Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2014 (Public Law 113-

66). It would also require the Department of State, jointly 

with the Department of Defense and other appropriate agencies, 

to brief the appropriate congressional committees at the time of 

submission of the report, and every 6 months thereafter until 

the Russian Federation returns to compliance with its 

obligations under the INF Treaty, on the status of efforts to 

resolve U.S. concerns about Russian INF noncompliance. Finally, 

in the event the President determines that Russia has deployed, 

or intends to deploy, systems that violate the INF Treaty, it 

would require the President to notify Congress promptly of such 

a determination, and any plans to respond to such deployments.

We expect the Secretary of Defense to consult closely with 

the Director of National Intelligence and the Secretary of State 

throughout the preparation of the report required under this 

section, including to avoid duplicative reporting. 

Prohibition on use of funds to enter into contracts or other 

agreements with Rosoboronexport (sec. 1246)

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1229) that 

would prohibit the use of Department of Defense (DOD) funds to 

enter into a contract, memorandum of understanding, or 

cooperative agreement with, to make a grant to, or to provide a 

loan or loan guarantee to the Russian state corporation 

Rosoboronexport. The provision included a national security

Afghanistan and the Under Secretary of Defense for Acquisition, 

Technology, and Logistics.

Staff to jointly submit to the appropriate congressional 

committees a report stating the reasons continued implementation 
211

of the New START Treaty is in the national security interests of 

the United States.

SUBTITLE D—MATTERS RELATING TO THE ASIAPACIFIC REGION

Strategy to prioritize United States defense interests in the 

Asia-Pacific region (sec. 1251)

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1231) that 

would require the Secretary of Defense, in coordination with the 

Secretary of State and other heads of federal departments and 

agencies, to develop a strategy to prioritize U.S. interests in 

the U.S. Pacific Command area of responsibility, as well as an 

implementation plan to support the strategy.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision.

The agreement includes the House provision with an 

amendment that would narrow the scope of the strategy to defense 

issues and remove the implementation plan requirement.

Modifications to annual report on military and security 

developments involving the People’s Republic of China (sec. 

1252)

report to the congressional defense committees and the Committee 

on Foreign Relations of the Senate and the Committee on Foreign 

Affairs of the House on the goals and objectives guiding 
212

military-to-military engagement between the United States and 

the Union of Burma, with a 5-year sunset.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision 

(sec. 1210) that would require a certification of certain steps 

by the Government of Burma to improve conditions before security 

assistance would be authorized under this Act. The provision 

also contained exceptions to that limitation for human rights 

and disaster relief training, as well as a report requirement on 

the strategy and plans for military-to-military engagement 

between the U.S. Armed Forces and the Burma military.

The agreement includes the Senate provision with an 

amendment that would remove the certification requirement, 

combine the reporting requirements from both provisions, and 

authorize the human rights and disaster relief training 

contained within the Senate provision with clarifying 

modifications. The agreement also provides that no Department 

of Defense assistance to the Government of Burma is authorized 

by this Act except as provided in this section. If a decision 

is made to engage in one of the authorized activities enumerated 

in subsection (a), we expect the Secretary of Defense to provide 

written notification to the Secretary of State.

We note that there remains significant progress to be made 

on: establishing civilian oversight of the Burma military, 

implementing human rights reform in the Burma military, and 

terminating military relations with North Korea. We also note 

that the Government of Burma must take significant steps toward 

establishing a transparent and inclusive process to amend the 

constitution of Burma, including the full participation of the 

political opposition and all ethnic minority groups in that 

process. 

Report on Department of Defense munitions strategy of the United 

States Pacific Command (sec. 1254)

213

identify opportunities for increasing missile defense 

cooperation among the United States, Japan, and the Republic of 

Korea, and to evaluate options for short-range missile, rocket, 

and artillery defense capabilities to address threats from the 

Korean Peninsula. The provision would also require the 

Secretary to brief Congress on the assessment.

The Senate committee-reported bill included no such 

provision.

The agreement includes the House provision with a 

clarifying amendment. 

We note that missile defense cooperation with allies in 

Asia could be bilateral, trilateral, or multilateral.

Sense of Congress and report on Taiwan and its contribution to 

regional peace and stability (sec. 1256)

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1236) that 

would require the Secretary of Defense to provide the 

congressional defense committees and the Committee on Foreign 

Relations of the Senate and the Committee on Foreign Affairs of 

the House of Representatives a report on the maritime 

capabilities of Taiwan. The provision also would express the 

sense of Congress that the United States should consider 

opportunities to help enhance the maritime capabilities of 

Taiwan.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision.

The agreement includes the House provision with an 

amendment that would expand the report to the self-defense 

capabilities of Taiwan and express a sense of Congress that 

reaffirms U.S. security commitments under the Taiwan Relations 

Act (Public Law 96-8).

Independent assessment of the ability of the Department of 

Defense to counter anti-access and area-denial strategies, 

capabilities, and other key technologies of potential 

adversaries (sec. 1257)

The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision 

(sec. 221) that would require the Secretary of Defense to task 

the Defense Science Board or other independent group to examine 

the potential specific challenges to U.S. military technological 

superiority within the next 10 years, and the specific planned 

responses by the Department of Defense (DOD) to meet these 

challenges.

The House bill contained a similar provision (sec. 1237) 

that would require the Secretary of Defense to enter into an 
214

agreement with an independent entity to conduct an assessment of 

anti-access and area-denial (A2AD) strategies and capabilities 

that pose a threat to security in the Asia-Pacific region and 

strategies to mitigate such threats. 

The agreement includes the House provision with an 

amendment that would require the Secretary of Defense to task an 

independent entity to conduct an assessment of the ability of 

the DOD to counter A2AD strategies, capabilities, and other key 

technologies that could be implemented by potential adversaries. 

In the annual report to Congress on “Military and Security 

Developments Involving the People’s Republic of China 2014,” the 

Department of Defense notes that China continues to sustain 

investments in key anti-access and area denial capabilities to 

deter or counter third-party intervention in the region. The 

Under Secretary of Defense for Acquisition, Technology and 

Logistics has warned that America’s “technological superiority 

is not assured,” and that “the Department of Defense is being 

challenged in ways that I have not seen for decades, 

particularly in the Asia-Pacific region.” We share this concern 

and believe that an independent assessment could help focus the 

Department’s investments and strategic thinking on these 

challenges. 

We remain concerned by questions regarding the relative 

U.S. advantages in technological capabilities, which could be 

undercut as advanced technologies continue to proliferate. The 

potential for greater technological parity among adversaries 

carries the risk of U.S. military forces operating without the 

traditional level of overmatch needed to succeed swiftly in a 

contingency, which raises further questions about the impact 

that the loss of technological superiority would have on the 

freedom of U.S. action in securing national security objectives. 

These questions merit examination in the assessment. 

Elsewhere in this Act, we require the Secretary of Defense 

to report on the Department’s munitions strategy for United 

States Pacific Command, based on a provision in the House bill 

(sec. 1234). However, we believe that some of the reporting 

elements contained in the House bill would be better suited to 

this independent assessment. These include assessing other 

countries’ munitions programs, capabilities, and technologies 

that could challenge U.S. deployed forces and military systems, 

and providing recommendations for how the United States can 

counter these challenges or restore, maintain, or expand U.S. 

military technological advantages in munitions. 

We expect, as part of the information, data, resources, 

and analyses provided to the independent entity, the Department 

also provide a baseline description of the counter-A2AD 
215

policies, strategies, force posture, programs, capabilities, 

systems and technologies that are currently in place or funded.

Sense of Congress reaffirming security cooperation with Japan 

and the Republic of Korea (sec. 1258)

provision.

The agreement includes a merger of the two House 

provisions with clarifying amendments.

Report on maritime security strategy in the Asia-Pacific region 

(sec. 1259)

The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision 

(sec. 1245) that would require the President to submit to the 

congressional defense committees a report that outlines the 

strategy of the Department of Defense with regard to maritime 

security in the South China Sea and East China Sea. The 

provision would also require an annual briefing on the military 

to military engagement with the People’s Republic of China.

The House bill contained no similar provision.

The agreement includes the Senate provision with a 

clarifying amendment.

We direct that, not later than March 15, 2015, the 

Secretary of Defense shall provide the congressional defense 

committees a briefing (in classified form, if appropriate) on 

the following:

(1) An assessment of the military to military 

engagements between the United States and the People's 

Republic of China in the previous 12 months, before March 

15, 2015, including an assessment of the success of such 

engagements in meeting the objectives of the Commander of 

the United States Pacific Command for such engagements; and

(2) A detailed description of all planned and 

potential military to military engagements between the 

United States and the People's Republic of China for the 

next 12 months, after March 15, 2015, including the 

objectives of such engagements.

Sense of Congress on Taiwan maritime capabilities and exercise 

participation (sec. 1259A)
216

The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision 

(sec. 1212) that would express the sense of the Senate that both 

Taiwan and the People’s Republic of China should be afforded the 

opportunity to participate in the humanitarian assistance and 

disaster relief portions of future multilateral exercises.

The House bill contained a similar provision (sec. 1236).

The agreement includes the Senate provision with an 

amendment that would incorporate a section of the sense of 

Congress from the House provision.

Modification of matters for discussion in annual reports of 

United States-China Economic and Security Review Commission 

(sec. 1259B)

Affairs of the House of Representatives, the required national 

security planning guidance, including any updates to such 

guidance, to deny safe havens to al Qaeda and its violent 

extremist affiliates not later than October 1, 2014.

The House Bill included a provision (sec. 1250) that would 

limit the availability of fiscal year 2015 funds to integrate 

missile defense systems of China into missile defense systems of 

the United States. It would also limit the availability of 

funds to integrate missile defense systems of Russia into 

missile defense systems of the United States if such integration 

would undermine the security of the United States or the North 

Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO), unless the Secretary of 

Defense could certify that Russia had met certain specified 

conditions.

A proposed amendment to the Senate committee-reported bill

United States national security interests and that may be 

inconsistent with an arms control treaty to which the United 

States is a party, and such case is not included in the most 

recent annual arms control compliance report, or is 

significantly different from a case included in such report. If 

the President receives such a notification from the Secretary of 

Defense, the provision would require the President to promptly 

refer the matter to the Secretary of State to arrange for an 

inter-agency review of the case to assess whether it constitutes 

a significant case of arms control non-compliance. Not later 

than 60 days after the President makes such a referral, the

Augmentation Units utilized during the previous year or those 

utilized as of the date of this Act to improve security at highthreat, high-risk facilities as well as an evaluation of any 

impediments to the effectiveness of such units. We expect this 

assessment will analyze the integration of such units into 

relevant policies, plans, and reviews, to include, but not be 

limited to, vulnerability assessments, waiver mitigation 

requirements, and emergency action plans.

provision.

The agreement includes the House provision with an 

amendment that would express the sense of Congress that the 

United States should work with North Atlantic Treaty 

Organization (NATO) members as they seek to modernize their 

defense capabilities to encourage them to procure defense 

systems, including air and missile defense systems, that are 

interoperable with NATO defense systems and help fill critical 

NATO shortfalls. 
222

We agree with the NATO Wales Summit Declaration, issued by 

heads of state on September 5, 2014, that it is important that 

the NATO member states “reverse the trend in declining defence 

budgets, to make the most effective use of our funds and to 

further a more balanced sharing of costs and responsibilities.” 

We, therefore, support NATO member states like the 

Republic of Poland that are planning to invest significantly in 

the modernization of their defense capabilities, including 

Poland’s decision to procure air and missile defense systems for 

the Polish Army by 2022. We understand Poland’s overall 

investment plan will bring it above the 2 percent of gross 

domestic product pledge for NATO members’ national defense 

spending, which was reaffirmed by NATO in Wales. We believe 

these are important investments that could contribute to key 

alliance security commitments. 

We direct the Secretary of Defense to report to the 

congressional defense committees, and the Committee on Foreign 

Relations of the Senate and the Committee on Foreign Affairs of 

the House, not later than 60 days after enactment of this Act, 

on the benefits to the security of the Alliance that would 

result from the procurement of interoperable American air and 

missile defense technology by NATO members. 

Report on protection of cultural property in event of armed 

conflict (sec. 1273)

amendment that would require the Secretary of Defense to conduct

a review of the force posture, readiness, and responsiveness of

Organization (NATO) members in Europe, and the contingency plans 

for those U.S. forces, to ensure they are appropriate to meet 

the obligation of collective self-defense under the North 

Atlantic Treaty. The amendment would also require the Secretary 

of Defense, in coordination with the Secretary of State, to 

submit a report to the appropriate committees of Congress on a

Europe. The report would include a plan for reassuring NATO

self-defense under the North Atlantic Treaty, and a plan on

section is submitted, the Department of Defense will brief the 

Armed Services Committees of the Senate and the House of 

Representatives on the findings of the review, including those 

relating to U.S. contingency plans. We also expect the

enhancing regional security and stability.

inconsistently with the Intermediate-range Nuclear Forces 

Treaty, and in compliance with the Treaty on Conventional Armed 

Forces in Europe. The provisions would also include a waiver 

for the Secretary of Defense, pending a notification, in 
239

coordination with the Secretary of State, to the appropriate 

congressional committees that such contact or cooperation is in 

the national security interest of the United States and a period 

of 30 days has elapsed following the notification.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision.

The agreement includes the House provision with an 

amendment that would prohibit funding for Cooperative Threat 

Reduction programs in Russia beyond fiscal year 2015 without 

specific authorization from Congress.

We support threat reduction programs and understand the 

importance of the Cooperative Threat Reduction (CTR) program, 

but we also believe that the traditional manner in which the 

program’s activities have been carried out in the Russian 

Federation is no longer necessary and no longer sustainable. 

While there still may be areas of technical cooperation that are 

of mutual benefit, such as the successful cooperative effort to 

rid Syria of chemical weapons and materials, this work in the 

future should be focused on specific threats, and not just a 

continuation of effort. Moreover, the CTR program may not be 

the most appropriate mechanism under which future cooperative 

work in Russia is conducted. The United States relationship 

with Russia has changed fundamentally and the CTR work in the 

Russian Federation is concluding. We believe that securing and 

destroying nuclear weapons and nuclear material is now a Russian 

responsibility and one that the United States should no longer 

fund without Russian cooperation. Any work proposed by the 

Department under CTR in the future with the Russian Federation 

will be carefully reviewed and subject to specific 

authorization. 

PART III—RECURRING CERTIFICATIONS AND REPORTS

Annual certifications on use of facilities being constructed for 

Department of Defense Cooperative Threat Reduction projects or 

activities (sec. 1341)

The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision 

(sec. 1341) that would require annual certification to the 

congressional defense committees for each facility of a project 

or activity under the program for which construction occurred 

during the preceding fiscal year, whether the facility will be 

used for its intended purpose by the state of the former Soviet 

Union where it is constructed, whether the government of such 

state remains committed to the use of such facility for its 

intended purpose, and whether the actions needed to ensure 

security at the facility have been taken.

TITLE XV—AUTHORIZATION OF ADDITIONAL 

APPROPRIATIONS FOR OVERSEAS CONTINGENCY 

OPERATIONS
252

BUDGET ITEM

National Guard and Reserve Component Equipment

The amended budget request for Overseas Contingency 

Operations contained no funding for a National Guard and Reserve 

Equipment account.

The House bill contained $250.0 million for a National 

Guard and Reserve Equipment account.

The Senate committee-reported bill would provide no 

funding for a National Guard and Reserve Component Equipment 

account.

The agreement includes $1.25 billion for a National Guard 

and Reserve Equipment account in section 4102 of this Act. 

Given the uncertainty of the current and projected fiscal 

environment, the availability of equipment needed to sustain and 

modernize the National Guard and Reserve Components as an 

operational reserve and for their domestic support missions, to 

include legacy aircraft as part of the Aerospace Control Alert 

(ACA) mission, remains a concern. We believe, therefore, 

additional funds are necessary to reduce high priority 

operational and dual-use equipment shortfalls. Accordingly, we 

expect these funds to be used for the purposes of, but not 

limited to, meeting the fiscal year 2015 unfunded equipment 

priorities of the Reserve Components as reported to Congress 

under section 10543(c) of title 10, United States Code. The 

funds may also be used by the National Guard and Reserve 

Components for the procurement of: aircraft, including

The agreement includes the House provision with an 

amendment to provide DOD with $3.5 billion in special transfer 

authority in fiscal year 2015.

SUBTITLE C—LIMITATIONS, REPORTS, AND OTHER 

MATTERS

Afghanistan Infrastructure Fund (sec. 1531)

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1523) that 

would prohibit the use of fiscal year 2015 Department of Defense 

(DOD) funds for the Afghanistan Infrastructure Fund (AIF) until 

all prior-year funds for the AIF have been obligated or 

expended. 

The Senate committee-reported bill contained a similar 

provision (sec. 1524) that would prohibit the use of fiscal year 

2015 DOD funds for the AIF.

The agreement includes the Senate provision. 

Afghanistan Security Forces Fund (sec. 1532)

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1521) that 

would continue existing limitations under section 1513 of the

Law 110-181), as amended, on the use of funds in the Afghanistan 

Security Forces Fund (ASFF). 

The Senate committee-reported bill contained a similar 

provision (sec. 1523).

The agreement includes the House provision with an 

amendment that would also extend the authority under subsection 

1531(d) of the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal 

Year 2014 (Public Law 113-66) to accept certain equipment 

procured using ASFF funds and to treat such equipment as 

Department of Defense stocks. The agreement would condition the 

acceptance of equipment procured with ASFF funds authorized 

under this Act on: (1) the Secretary of Defense submitting to 

the congressional defense committees a detailed report on the 

equipment procurement process in Afghanistan; and (2) the 

Commander, U.S. Forces Afghanistan making certain determinations 

regarding the equipment to be accepted under this authority. 

These determinations would be provided to the congressional 

defense committees as part of the quarterly reports on the 

exercise of this authority. 
256

In extending the authority under subsection 1531(d) of 

Public Law 113-66, we expect that this authority will be 

utilized only in limited circumstances and should not be broadly 

available for accepting equipment that has been damaged after it 

was transferred to the Afghan security forces. 

Joint Improvised Explosive Device Defeat Fund (sec. 1533)

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1522) that

requirements, and other associated activities for the Joint 

Improvised Explosive Device (IED) Defeat Fund, as managed by the 

Joint IED Defeat organization.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained a similar 

provision (sec. 1522) that would authorize the Joint Improvised 

Explosive Device Defeat Fund and would thereby provide the 

Director of the Joint Improvised Explosive Device Defeat 

Organization (JIEDDO) with the authority to investigate, 

develop, and provide equipment, supplies, services, training, 

facilities, personnel, and funds to assist United States forces 

in the defeat of improvised explosive devices for Operation 

Enduring Freedom or any successor operation to that operation. 

The provision would also extend JIEDDO’s authority with respect 

to homemade explosives, and would sunset this authority on 

December 31, 2015. The provision would also direct the Under 

Secretary of Defense for Acquisition, Technology, and Logistics 

to present to the congressional defense committees a plan to 

consolidate any enduring functions of the stated organizations, 

capabilities, and funding into an appropriate organization 

identified as part of that review. 

The agreement includes the Senate provision with a 

clarifying amendment.

Counterterrorism Partnerships Fund (sec. 1534)

A proposed amendment to the Senate committee-reported bill 

(amendment number 3875) contained a provision that would 

authorize the Counterterrorism Partnerships Fund.

The House bill contained no similar provision.

The agreement includes the Senate provision with a 

clarifying amendment. 

European Reassurance Initiative (sec. 1535)

A proposed amendment to the Senate committee-reported bill 

(amendment number 3875) contained a provision (sec. 1527) that 

would specify the purposes for which amounts authorized to be 
257

appropriated for the European Reassurance Initiative (ERI) could 

be used and provide other limitations on the use of such funds.

The House bill contained no similar provision.

The agreement includes the Senate provision with an 

amendment clarifying that for fiscal year 2015 $1.0 billion is 

authorized to be appropriated in Overseas Contingency Operations 

funds for the ERI. The amendment would also provide that of 

these funds not less than $75.0 million would be available for 

programs, activities, and assistance to support Ukraine, and not 

less than $30.0 million would be available for programs and 

activities to build the capacity of European allies and partner 

nations. Amounts specified for the ERI fund would be available 

for the purposes of ERI through September 30, 2016. 

We are deeply concerned about the ongoing violations of 

Ukraine’s sovereignty and territorial integrity and note that a 

provision in another section of this title expresses the sense 

of Congress in support of providing Ukraine military assistance, 

both non-lethal and lethal assistance, that is defensive and 

non-provocative. 

We are also concerned about the potential spread of the 

unconventional and hybrid warfare tactics used by Russia in 

Ukraine to other countries in the region, potentially including 

the Baltic countries, Moldova, and Georgia. We urge the 

Secretary of Defense to devote the appropriate level of planning 

and resources, including resources under the ERI, to countering 

the threat posed by these unconventional and hybrid warfare 

tactics.

Plan for transition of funding of United States Special 

Operations Command from supplemental funding for overseas 

contingency operations to recurring funding for future-years 

defense programs (sec. 1536)

The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision 

(sec. 1521) that would require the Secretary of Defense to 

provide the congressional defense committees, as part of the 

fiscal year 2016 budget request, with a plan to fully transition 

appropriate U.S. Special Operations Command funding from the 

Overseas Contingency Operations budget to the base budget over 

the future years defense program to maintain critical and 

enduring special operations capabilities. 

The House bill contained no similar provision.

The agreement includes the Senate provision. 

LEGISLATIVE PROVISION NOT ADOPTED

Codification of Office and Management and Budget criteria
258

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1524) that 

would require the Secretary of Defense to implement specified 

criteria in requests for Overseas Contingency Operations (OCO).

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision.

The agreement does not include this provision.

We note that the criteria for OCO funding requests 

developed by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for 

deciding whether funding for programs properly belongs in the 

base or OCO requests have not been updated in over 4 years. 

While these criteria have been somewhat successful in 

delineating between these two sources of funding and have 

facilitated OCO funding requests for the Department of Defense 

(DOD), there have been significant fact-of-life world events 

which dictate a need to re-examine and update those criteria. 

It is also unclear how the guidance is applied to DOD 

reprogramming requests submitted to Congress for emergent 

requirements. OMB should ensure the criteria remain relevant 

and adaptable for evaluating DOD budget and reprogramming 

requests. We encourage DOD to evaluate the OCO criteria on a 

regular basis to ensure proper delineation of base and OCO 

budget requests. We would expect OMB to update the OCO criteria 

in time to support the FY 2016 budget submission. 

TITLE XVI—STRATEGIC PROGRAMS, CYBER, AND 

INTELLIGENCE MATTERS

SUBTITLE A—SPACE ACTIVITIES

Department of Defense Space Security and Defense Program (sec. 

1601)

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1601) that 

states a sense of Congress that critical U.S. space systems face 

a growing foreign threat, that both the People's Republic of 

China (PRC) and the Russian Federation are developing 

capabilities to disrupt the use of space by the United States 

during a conflict, and that a fully developed, multi-faceted 

approach is needed to deter and defeat any adversary's acts of 

aggression in outer space. The provision directs the Secretary 

of Defense to submit a report to the congressional defense 

committees not later than 180 days after the date of the 

enactment of this Act that assesses the ability of the 

Department of Defense to deter and defeat any adversary's act of 

aggression in outer space. In addition, this section would 

direct the Secretary, acting through the Office of Net 
259

Assessment, to conduct a study and provide a report to the 

congressional defense committees not later than 1 year after the 

date of the enactment of this Act of potential alternate defense 

and deterrent strategies in response to the existing and 

projected counterspace capabilities of PRC and the Russian 

Federation.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision.

The agreement includes the House provision.

Evolved expendable launch vehicle notification (sec. 1602)

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1602) that 

would direct the Secretary of the Air Force to provide certain 

congressional committees with notification of each change to the 

Evolved Expendable Launch Vehicle (EELV) acquisition plan and 

schedule as compared to the plan and schedule included in the 

budget submitted by the President for fiscal year 2015. The 

notification would include an identification of the change, a 

national security rationale for the change, the impact of the 

change on the EELV block buy contract, the impact of the change 

on the opportunities for competition for certified EELV launch 

providers, and the costs or savings of the change. The 

notification requirement would apply to fiscal years 2015, 2016, 

and 2017.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision.

The agreement includes the House provision with an 

amendment that would require the notification be sent to the 

appropriate congressional committees at the time of the budget 

submission for fiscal year 2016 and 2017, and it would not 

require such notification if no change has occurred relative to 

the fiscal year 2015 budget submission.

Satellite communications responsibilities of Executive Agent for 

Space (sec. 1603)

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1603) that 

would direct the Secretary of Defense to revise Department of 

Defense (DOD) directives and guidance for the DOD Executive 

Agent (EA) for Space, with respect to the development of space 

strategies, architectures and programs for satellite 

communications.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision.
260

The agreement includes the House provision with an 

amendment that would add coordination with the commanders of the 

combatant commands.

We direct the Secretary of Defense to report to the 

congressional defense committees, within 90 days of the 

enactment of this Act, on DOD’s satellite communications 

organization structure. The report shall include a review of 

the efficiency and effectiveness of the DOD’s current satellite 

communications organizational structure. It shall also include 

a recommendation to strengthen the DOD’s leadership and 

acquisition structure of satellite communications in a manner 

which improves strategic planning and lowers costs through more 

efficient acquisition approaches to meet the DOD’s related 

requirements.

Specifically, the Secretary shall assess the merits and 

challenges of designating the Commander of the Air Force Space 

Command’s Space and Missile Systems Center as the DOD’s single 

acquisition agent for wideband satellite communications not 

later than fiscal year 2017. If the Secretary disagrees with 

this proposition the report must demonstrate and give a plan to 

implement an organization structure that brings coherency to the 

satellite communications acquisition process. The acquisition of 

commercial satellite communications is currently at best ad hoc, 

expensive, and reliant on Overseas Contingency Operations 

funding with little long-term planning, and is not strategically 

and efficiently aligned with the acquisition of military 

wideband satellite communications. 

Rocket propulsion system development program (sec. 1604)

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1604) that 

would direct the Secretary of Defense to develop a nextgeneration liquid rocket engine authorized at $220.0 million for 

fiscal year 2015. In carrying out the program, the Secretary 

would be required to coordinate with the Administrator of the 

National Aeronautics and Space Administration, to the extent 

practicable. The provision also contained a sense of Congress 

that the engine be made in the United States, meet the 

requirements of the national security space community, developed 

not later than 2019 using full and open competition, and 

available for purchase by all space launch providers of the 

United States.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained a similar 

provision (sec. 1629) that would require the Secretary of 

Defense to develop a program plan for the production of a liquid 

rocket engine to support national security launch missions by no 

later than 2019. 
261

The agreement includes the House provision with an 

amendment that would direct the Secretary of Defense to develop 

a rocket propulsion system that is made in the United States, is 

developed no later than 2019 using full and open competition, 

meets the requirements of the national security space community, 

and is available for purchase by all space launch providers of 

the United States.

We note that this provision is not an authorization of 

funds for the development of a new launch vehicle. This 

provision is for the development of a rocket propulsion system 

to replace non-allied space launch engines by 2019.

The Secretary should coordinate with the Administrator of 

the National Aeronautics and Space Administration, to the extent 

practicable, to ensure that the rocket propulsion system 

developed under subsection meets objectives that are common to 

both the national security space community and the civil space 

program of the United States.

Pilot program for acquisition of commercial satellite 

communication services (sec. 1605)

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1605) that

pilot program to examine the feasibility of expanding the use of 

working capital funds to acquire commercial satellite 

communications services to meet Department of Defense 

requirements.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision.

The agreement includes the House provision with a 

clarifying amendment that would change the report due date from 

150 days after enactment to 90 days. It also changes the 

budgetary authority from commercial satellite communications to 

satellite communications, and makes other administrative 

modifications.

Update of National Security Space Strategy to include space 

control and space superiority strategy (sec. 1606)

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1606) that 

would extend the analysis required by section 911(d) of the 

National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2008 (Public 

Law 110-181) through fiscal year 2030.

provision (sec. 1621) that would direct the Secretary of 

Defense, in consultation with the Director of National 

Intelligence, to update the space control and space superiority 
262

strategy pursuant to the Space Posture Review conducted under 

section 913 of the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal 

Year 2009 (Public Law 110-417).

The agreement includes the Senate provision with an 

amendment that would extend the analysis required by section

911(d) of the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 

2008 (Public Law 110-181) through fiscal year 2030, and make 

other clarifying changes.

entering into a new contract or renewing a current contract for 

space launch activities from any person if that person purchases 

supplies critical for space launch activities covered by the 

contract from a Russian entity. The provision contained a 

waiver from the prohibition for U.S. national security interests 

and if space launch services and capabilities could not be 

obtained at a fair and reasonable price without the purchase of 

supplies critical for space launch activities from a Russian 

entity.

The House bill contained no similar provision.

The agreement includes the Senate provision with an 

amendment that would prohibit the Secretary of Defense from 

awarding or renewing a contract for the procurement of property 

or services for space launch activities under the Evolved 

Expendable Launch Vehicle program if the contract carries out 
263

such activities using rocket engines designed or manufactured in 

the Russian Federation. The provision includes the waiver from 

the Senate provision. The provision exempts the placement of 

orders or the exercise of options under contract FA8811-13-C0003, awarded on December 18, 2013, or unless the Secretary, 

upon advice of the General Counsel of the Department of Defense, 

certifies to the congressional defense committees that the 

offeror of a contract has provided sufficient documentation to 

conclusively demonstrate that prior to February 1, 2014, the 

offeror had either fully paid for or entered into a legally 

binding commitment for rocket engines designed or manufactured 

in the Russia Federation. 

Assessment of evolved expendable launch vehicle program (sec. 

1609)

The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision 

(sec. 1624) that would require the Government Accountability 

Office to assess the advisability of the Secretary of Defense to 

require that launch providers establish or maintain business 

systems complying with the data requirements and cost accounting 

standards of the Department of Defense, including certified cost 

or price data.

The House bill contained no similar provision.

(sec. 1627) that would require competitive procedures be used to 

launch the payload for the Operationally Responsive Space 

program mission number five.

The House bill contained no similar provision.

The agreement includes the Senate provision.

Availability of additional rocket cores pursuant to competitive 

procedures (sec. 1611)

The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision 

(sec. 1626) that would, based upon the Fiscal Year 2015 National 

Security Space Launch Forecast, require the Secretary of Defense 

to make available during fiscal year 2015 one additional rocket 

core for open competition. The provision also requires that 

between fiscal years 2015 and 2017, one additional competitive 
264

rocket core shall be made available unless the Secretary 

determines that there is no practicable way to implement this 

requirement while remaining in compliance with the terms and 

conditions of the 36 rocket core block buy under the Evolved 

Expendable Launch Vehicle (EELV) program. Upon making such a 

determination, the Secretary shall certify within 45 days that 

there is no practicable way to add the second additional rocket 

core for open competition as well as describing the basis for 

such a determination and providing both to the congressional 

defense committees. A proposed amendment to the Senate 

committee-reported bill (amendment number 3824) contained a 

provision that would make technical and conforming changes.

direct the Secretary of the Air Force to place the last 

remaining satellite of the Defense Meteorological Satellite 

Program (DMSP) on the launch manifest for the Evolved Expendable 

Launch Vehicle (EELV) program. Additionally, this section would 

direct the Secretary of the Air Force to establish an additional 

launch, for acquisition in fiscal year 2015, under the EELV 

program, using full and open competition among certified 

providers. The House bill would also fence 75 percent of the 

funds for the weather satellite follow-on system until the 

Secretary submits to the congressional defense committees the 

plan to meet the meteorological and oceanographic collection 

requirements validated by the Joint Requirements Oversight 

Council.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision 

(sec. 1628) that would prohibit funding the storage of the last 

DMSP unless the Secretary of Defense certifies to the 

congressional defense committees that the Department of Defense 

(DOD) intends to launch the satellite, will have sufficient 

funding to do so in the future years defense program, and that 

storing the satellite until a launch in 2020 is the most costeffective approach to meeting the requirements of DOD.

The agreement includes the House provision with an 

amendment that removes both the direction to launch the DMSP 

satellite and the addition of a competition launch. The 

agreement would limit 50 percent of the funds for the follow-on 

weather satellite until the Secretary of Defense submits to the 
265

congressional defense committees a plan to meet the 

meteorological and oceanographic collection requirements of the 

Joint Requirements Oversight Council, including the requirements 

of the combatant commands, military departments and agencies of 

the DOD. The Government Accountability Office (GAO) shall 

review the plan and the Analysis of Alternatives to determine if 

it meets best practices and fully addresses the concerns of the 

acquisition, operational and user communities, including how DOD 

assessed and dealt with cost, schedule and risks posed by each 

alternative considered.

The agreement also includes a prohibition on storage of 

DMSP, unless the Secretary of Defense intends to launch the 

satellite and that storing the satellite until the anticipated 

launch is the most cost-effective approach to meeting the 

requirements of DOD. If the Secretary of Defense decides not to 

launch the satellite, the Secretary of Defense must certify that 

the related requirements of the DOD will be met. The agreement 

also includes a review of the certification report by GAO.

Limitation on availability of funds for space-based infrared 

systems space data exploitation (sec. 1613)

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 216) that would 

limit obligation or expenditure of funds authorized by this Act 

to not more than 50 percent for the data exploitation under the 

Space-Based Infrared Systems (SBIRS) space modernization 

initiative, which funds modernization and evolution of 

technologies to meet the SBIRS mission, until the Secretary of 

the Air Force delivers a certification to the congressional 

defense committees that the limited funds available for this 

effort will be used in support of data exploitation of the 

current SBIRS program of record, including the scanning and 

staring sensor; or that the data from the current SBIRS program 

of record, including the scanning and staring sensor, is being 

fully exploited and no further efforts are warranted.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision.

The agreement includes the House provision with an 

amendment that would require the Secretary of the Air Force make 

the certification as the Department of Defense Executive Agent 

for Space.

We direct the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff to 

conduct an overhead persistent infrared assessment. Such 

assessment shall include input from the Joint Staff and each of 

the combatant commands, including the component commands, 

detailing how they currently integrate, and plan to integrate, 

the use of overhead persistent infrared capabilities to pursue 
266

their assigned mission areas. Such assessment shall be 

delivered to the congressional defense committees in the form of 

a report by April 1, 2015.

Limitations on availability of funds for hosted payload and wide 

field of view testbed of the space-based infrared systems (sec. 

1614)

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 217) that would 

limit 50 percent of the funds authorized to be appropriated by

alternative approaches to the Space-Based Infrared Systems 

(SBIRS) program of record until completion and briefing to the 

appropriate congressional committees on the analysis of 

alternatives (AOA).

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision.

The agreement includes the House provision with an 

amendment that would release 75 percent of the funds authorized 

to be appropriated upon completion and submittal of the AOA to 

the appropriate congressional committees, with the remaining 25 

percent to be released 30 days after receiving the briefing as 

described in the House provision.

We direct the U.S. Comptroller General of the United 

States to review the AOA for SBIRS to determine the extent that 

the Department met AOA best practices and fully addressed the 

concerns of the acquisition, operational, and user communities. 

Further, the Comptroller General shall review how the Department 

identified the requirements and assessed and addressed the cost, 

schedule, and risks posed for each alternative in the AOA. The 

Comptroller General shall provide the results of the review to 

the appropriate congressional committees within 180 days from 

receipt of the AOA, and also provide an interim briefing within 

90 days.

Limitations on availability of funds for protected tactical 

demonstration and protected military satellite communications 

testbed of the advanced extremely high frequency program (sec. 

1615)

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 218) that would 

limit 50 percent of the funds authorized to be appropriated by 

this Act for the protected tactical demonstration and protected 

military satellite communications testbed alternative approaches 

to the Advanced Extremely High Frequency (AEHF) program of 

record until completion and briefing to the congressional 

defense committees on the analysis of alternatives (AOA).
267

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision. 

The agreement includes the House provision with an 

amendment that would release 75 percent of the funds authorized 

to be appropriated upon completion and submittal of the AOA with 

the remaining 25 percent released 30 days after receiving the

briefing as described in the House provision. The agreement 

also includes other clarifying amendments that make clear the 

restriction is not intended to limit technology insertions to 

current satellite communication programs of record.

review the reliability of the MILSTAR system, including 

terminals and maintenance and its effect on readiness as well as 

the phasing of the AEHF and Family of Advanced Beyond the line 

of sight Terminals (FAB-T) system to determine whether there 

will be a timely replacement of the MILSTAR system so as to not 

further degrade reliability and readiness of the existing 

communications architecture. The Comptroller General shall 

present an initial assessment to the congressional defense 

committees in the form of a briefing no later than March 31, 

2015, with a final briefing no later than September 30, 2015. 

We also direct the Comptroller General to review the AOA 

for AEHF to determine the extent that the Department of Defense 

(DOD) met AOA best practices and fully addressed the concerns of 

the acquisition, operational, and user communities. Further, 

the Comptroller General shall review how DOD identified the 

requirements and assessed and addressed the cost, schedule, and 

risks posed for each alternative in the AOA. The Comptroller 

General shall provide the results of the review to the 

congressional defense committees within 180 days from receipt of 

the AOA, and also provide an interim briefing within 90 days.

Study of space situational awareness architecture (sec. 1616)

The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision 

(sec. 1630) that would direct the Secretary of Defense to task 

the Defense Science Board to assess the architecture of the

The agreement includes the Senate provision with technical 

and clarifying amendments. 

We expect the Secretary to leverage, update, and expand on 

the previous space launch infrastructure briefing provided to 

Congress in March 2014.

SUBTITLE B—DEFENSE INTELLIGENCE AND 

INTELLIGENCE-RELATED ACTIVITIES

Tactical Exploitation of National Capabilities Executive Agent 

(sec. 1621)

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1614) that 

would establish an executive agent for the Tactical Exploitation 

of National Capabilities (TENCAP) program. The executive agent 

would report directly to the Under Secretary of Defense for 

Intelligence, and would be responsible for working with the 

combatant commands, military services, and intelligence 

community to develop methods to increase warfighter 

effectiveness through the exploitation of national capabilities 

and to promote cross-domain integration of such capabilities 

into military operations, training, intelligence, surveillance,

the TENCAP executive agent to provide an annual briefing to the 

congressional defense and intelligence committees for fiscal 

years 2016-20 on the investments, activities, challenges, and 

opportunities in carrying out the TENCAP program.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision.

The agreement includes the House provision with an 

amendment that would make technical and conforming changes 

regarding the designation of a TENCAP executive agent. We agree 

that the Undersecretary of Defense for Intelligence should 

designate a TENCAP executive agent through the use of an 
269

existing billet. We do not intend to create new standalone 

positions to support this function.

One-year extension of report on imagery intelligence and 

geospatial information support provided to regional 

organizations and security alliances (sec. 1622)

amendment that would modify the reporting requirements and the 

limitation on funds and add a requirement that the Comptroller 

General of the United States provide review and provide an 

assessment of the required report.

Annual briefing on the intelligence, surveillance, and 

reconnaissance requirements of the combatant commands (sec. 

1626)

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1612) that 

would direct the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff to 

provide briefings to the congressional defense and intelligence 

committees on the intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance 

requirements of each of the combatant commands. The provision 

would also provide specific guidance for what information should 

be included in the annual briefing. The provision would further 

require that the Chairman provide the briefing with the budget 

submission each year, from fiscal year 2016–20.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision.

The agreement includes this provision. 

Prohibition on National Intelligence Program consolidation (sec. 

1627)

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1616) that 

would prohibit amounts authorized to be appropriated or 

otherwise made available to the Department of Defense (DOD) to 

be used during the period beginning on the date of the enactment 

of this Act and ending on December 31, 2015, to execute:

(1) the separation of the National Intelligence 

Program (NIP)budget from the DOD budget;

(2) the consolidation of the NIP budget within DOD; 

or
271

(3) the establishment of a new appropriations 

account or appropriations account structure for the NIP 

budget.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision.

The agreement includes this provision.

Personnel security and insider threat (sec. 1628)

The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision 

(sec. 1654) that would require the Secretary of Defense to

establish an interim continuous evaluation (CE) system for 

personnel security; use this interim system to develop policies 

and procedures for an objective system; engineer CE systems to 

interface with an automated insider threat detection and 

prevention system; acquire CE capabilities competitively based 

on advanced commercial technology; establish a multidisciplinary team to support the development of an automated 

insider threat capability; and create an executive committee of 

senior officials to ensure that the insider threat program is 

appropriately coordinated and resourced.

The House bill contained no similar provision.

The agreement includes the Senate provision with an 

amendment that would require the Secretary to report to Congress 

on the Department’s plans to address the elements contained in 

the provision.

We also note that the study by the Director of Cost 

Analysis and Program Evaluation (CAPE) of the Office of 

Personnel Management’s personnel investigation service for the 

Department of Defense made a number of recommendations for 

additional phases of CAPE’s assessment. We endorse the CAPE 

recommendations for Phase 2A and 2B actions, specifically: 

improvements to workflow scheduling, limiting investigations to 

those requiring access to classified information; establishing a 

business practice working group to achieve efficiencies (such as 

cost savings from economies of scale); the efficacy of 

information technology investments, quality control practices, 

enhancing competition; and rationalizing the mix of government 

and contract investigators.

Migration of Distributed Common Ground System of Department of 

the Army to an open system architecture (sec. 1629)

The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision 

(sec. 1655) that would require the Secretary of the Army, within 

3 years of the date of enactment of this Act, to migrate the 

Distributed Common Ground System (DCGS), including the so-called 
272

Red Disk or any successor to Red Disk under development at the 

Army Intelligence and Security Command, to an open systems 

architecture. The provision would require that the DCGS open 

systems architecture be compliant with the Defense Intelligence 

Information Enterprise open architecture.

The House bill contained no similar provision.

The agreement includes this provision.

SUBTITLE C—CYBERSPACE-RELATED MATTERS

Budgeting and accounting for cyber mission forces (sec. 1631)

The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision 

(sec. 1643) that would require that the Secretary of Defense, 

for fiscal year 2017 and every succeeding year, for the 

President's annual budget submission and supporting documents, 

to develop a major force program (MFP) category and program 

elements for the Department of Defense (DOD) future years 

defense program for the training, arming, and equipping of the 

cyber mission forces. The provision would also require the 

Secretary to assess the feasibility and advisability of 

establishing a general fund transfer account to execute the 

funds programmed in the MFP and provide a recommendation to the 

congressional defense committees by April 1, 2015.

The House bill contained no similar provision.

The agreement includes the Senate provision with a 

clarifying amendment.

We note that for several years, as the importance of cyber 

operations investments has grown, the congressional defense 

committees have been urging DOD to improve how it categorizes 

and displays its budget justification documentation. In 

embarking on the process of developing a major force program, we 

believe it is important for DOD to adopt a taxonomy that remains 

consistent over several years. We understand that the 

Department is responding to budget guidance from the Office of 

Management and Budget, as well as changing priorities from new 

leadership, but these fluctuations in taxonomy result in an 

inconsistent and moving baseline that masks real annual changes 

in budget and execution levels.

Reporting on cyber incidents with respect to networks and 

information systems of operationally critical contractors (sec. 

1632)

The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision 

(sec. 1645) that would direct the Secretary of Defense to 

establish procedures for designating contractors as 
273

“operationally critical contractors,” notifying such contractors 

that they have been designated, and requiring designated 

contractors to report successful penetrations of their computer 

networks by known or suspected advanced persistent threat 

actors. The provision narrowly defines an operationally 

critical contractor as a company designated by the Secretary as 

a critical source of supply for airlift, sealift, intermodal 

transportation services, or logistical support that is essential 

to mobilization, deployment, or sustainment in a contingency 

operation.

The House bill contained no similar provision.

The agreement includes the Senate provision with a 

clarifying amendment.

We fully share the concern of industry and the Department 

of Defense (DOD) about harmonizing reporting on cyber intrusions 

to eliminate redundant reporting. We direct the Secretary to 

ensure that contractor reporting to DOD, and the dissemination 

of such reporting, is coordinated with reporting to the Director 

of National Intelligence and other government agencies.

Executive agents for cyber test and training ranges (sec. 1633)

The House bill contained a provision (sec.1621) that would 

require the Secretary of Defense to establish an executive agent 

to coordinate and oversee the management of the various cyber 

and information technology test and training ranges being

developed and deployed by the Department of Defense (DOD).

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision.

The agreement includes the House provision with an 

amendment that would make technical changes and require the 

Secretary to designate two cyber range executive agents from 

among existing DOD personnel, one for test ranges and one for 

training ranges; and to consult with the Principal Cyber Advisor 

in designating the executive agents. The amendment also would 

require the executive agents, in consultation with the DOD Chief 

Information Officer, to jointly designate a standard language 

from among existing open source candidates for expressing cyber 

event and threat data in machine-readable form for use in the 

Joint Information Environment and the range environment. 

We note that for several years, the Armed Services 

Committees of the Senate and House of Representatives have 

expressed concerns over how the DOD has managed its cyber range 

resources. While we recognize that DOD has developed and 

maintained a core set of capabilities, we have observed firsthand that the lack of coordination of those capabilities has 

left DOD in a situation where the current ranges do not support 
274

the tools and capabilities that cyber operators would use in the 

real world. Unlike in live training for kinetic operations, in 

cyberspace, we do not train like we fight. We believe that the 

integrated plan required by these executive agents is a 

necessary tool to create standardization between training and 

operational tools, as well as to ensure that DOD is investing in 

adequate range resources to meet unit-level training 

requirements for the force structure being defined by U.S. Cyber 

Command.

One reason that we have tasked these executive agents to 

designate a standard language for cyber event and threat data 

reporting is to better ensure that there is standardization of 

these capabilities across the range and operational networks. 

Not only is this a fundamental capabilities needed by cyber 

forces, it would also set a valuable precedent for ensuring that 

the capabilities that are used on live, operational networks are 

the same tools that would be used in a test or training 

environment. We firmly believe that any standard designated by 

these executive agents should swiftly be transitioned to use on 

the operational networks of the Joint Information Environment.

In designating the two required executive agents, we 

believe that the Secretary should consider two important 

factors. First, the Test Resource Management Center (TRMC) 

already fills a similar role for the test range complex, and 

would make a logical choice to take on the responsibilities for 

the test range executive agent. Second, we believe that the 

training range executive agent should be the responsibility of 

one of the military departments, since they have the operational 

imperative to maintain training readiness, as well as the 

resources to sustain and upgrade training range capabilities 

over time.

Cyberspace mapping (sec. 1634)

The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision 

(sec. 1641) that would require the Secretary of Defense, within 

60 days of the date of enactment of this Act, to designate a 

network or network segment within the Department of Defense 

(DOD) to support the execution of a pilot program to demonstrate 

large-scale cyberspace mapping technology, as approved by the 

Cyber Investment Management Board (CIMB). The provision also 

would require the Principal Cyber Advisor, within 180 days of 

enactment of this Act, to recommend policy to the Secretary of 

Defense regarding the mapping of cyberspace to support the 

missions of U.S. Cyber Command.

The House bill contained no similar provision.
275

The agreement includes the Senate provision with a 

clarifying amendment.

Review of cross domain solution policy and requirement for cross 

domain solution strategy (sec. 1635)

The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision 

(sec.1642) that would require the Secretary of Defense to review 

the policies of the Department of Defense, and develop a 

strategy concerning the procurement, approval, and use of 

capabilities to transmit information across networks and systems 

at different security classification levels.

The House bill contained no similar provision.

The agreement includes this provision.

Requirement for strategy to develop and deploy decryption 

service for the Joint Information Environment (sec. 1636)

The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision 

(sec. 1614) that would require the Secretary of Defense to 

develop a strategy for a decryption service for the Joint 

Information Environment. The provision would require the 

strategy for the decryption and re-encryption of communications 

to enable the inspection of communications content to detect 

cyber threats and insider threat activity. That strategy would 

include a requirements definition document, an architecture, a 

concept of operations, a cost estimate, and an assessment of the 

security benefit of such a service. The provision would require 

a briefing on the strategy to be provided to the congressional 

defense and intelligence committees by October 1, 2015.

The House bill contained no similar provision.

The agreement includes this provision.

Actions to address economic or industrial espionage in 

cyberspace (sec. 1637)

A proposed amendment to the Senate committee-reported bill 

(amendment number 3377) contained a provision that would require 

the President to report annually to appropriate congressional 

committees on countries that engage in economic or industrial 

espionage in cyberspace with respect to U.S. trade secrets or 

proprietary information, and on the types of technologies and 

intellectual property such countries target, what they have 

succeeded in stealing, and, where known, the incorporation of 

such stolen property in articles, products, or services. The 

report also would include the actions the President has taken to 
276

diminish such espionage, and the progress made towards that 

goal. 

The provision would authorize the President, pursuant to 

the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (50 U.S.C. 1701 

et seq.), to block and prohibit all transactions in all property 

and interests in property of each person determined to be 

knowingly engaged in such espionage, if such property and 

interests in property are in the United States, come within the 

United States, or are or come within the possession or control 

of a U.S. person.

The House bill contained no similar provision.

The agreement includes the Senate provision with a 

clarifying amendment.

We urge the President in implementing this provision to 

harmonize the required reporting on industrial or economic 

espionage through cyberspace with related reporting, including 

the biennial report on the threat to U.S. industry from foreign 

economic collection and industrial espionage required by section 

809(b) of Public Law 103-359.

Sense of Congress regarding role of reserve components in 

defense of Unites States against cyber attacks (sec. 1638)

The House bill contained a provision (sec.1622) that would 

express the sense of Congress that the National Guard has a 

valuable role to play in defending the United States against 

cyber attacks.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision.

The agreement includes the House provision with an 

amendment that would recognize the important capabilities and 

role of all the reserve components.

We are aware that the Army National Guard is pursuing a 

decision to establish ten Cyber Protection Teams (CPTs), 

independent of the plans by U.S. Cyber Command to establish 68 

CPTs within the active component. While we support a role for 

the reserve components in Department of Defense planning and 

organization to deal with cyber threats, we are concerned that 

such plans are not adequately synchronized with overall planning 

in this space. In particular, we are concerned about 

potentially creating parallel structures, personnel and training 

pathways, and authorities for such forces.

Therefore, we direct the Secretary of the Army to submit a 

report to the congressional defense committees, within 90 days 

of the enactment of this Act, on the progress made by the Army 

National Guard to establish ten CPTs to support preparations to 

respond to emergencies involving an attack or natural disaster 
277

impacting computer networks. The report shall include the 

following:

(1) A timeframe for when stationing of the CPTs will 

be finalized.

(2) A timeframe for activation of the CPTs and 

whether the teams will be activated at the same time or 

staggered over time.

(3) A description of manning and basing 

requirements.

(4) The number and location of nominations received 

for a CPT and the activation date estimate provided in each 

nomination.

(5) An assessment of the range of stated cost 

projections included in the nominations.

(6) An assessment of any identified patterns 

regarding ease or difficulty of staffing individuals with 

required credentials within particular regions.

(7) Any additional information deemed relevant by 

the Secretary.

Sense of Congress on the future of the Internet and the .MIL 

top-level domain (sec. 1639)

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1090E) that 

would prohibit the transfer of the responsibilities of the 

National Telecommunications and Information Administration 

(NTIA) for Internet domain name system functions until the 

Comptroller General of the United States submits a report to 

Congress, within 1 year of the date on which NTIA receives a 

proposal for the transfer of such responsibilities to the 

Internet Corporation For Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN).

The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision 

(sec. 1646) that would express the sense of Congress that the 

Secretary of Defense should: 

(1) Advise the President to transfer the remaining 

role of the United States Government in the functions of 

the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA) to a global 

multi-stakeholder community only if the President is 

confident that the .mil top level domain and the Internet 

protocol address numbers used exclusively by the Department 

of Defense (DOD) for national security will remain 

exclusively used by DOD; and

(2) Take all necessary steps to sustain the 

successful stewardship and good standing of the Internet 

root zone servers managed by DOD components.

The agreement includes the Senate provision with an 

amendment that would clarify how the Secretary should provide 
278

advice in the process, as well as ensure active participation in 

all transition planning and accountability stress testing.

We understand that the arcane and esoteric process for 

governing the internet is not conducive to quick or easy 

understanding by decisionmakers not intimately involved in the 

process. We fear that the lack of understanding breeds concerns 

that at face value appear warranted, but upon closer examination 

may not be valid, or may be easily mitigated. We believe that 

some improved confidence building measures and transparency over 

the negotiations process would be helpful in dispelling any 

misconceptions about the process.

Therefore, we direct the Secretary to submit a report to 

the Committees on Armed Services of the Senate and House of 

Representatives on the transition process no later than 180 days 

after the enactment of this Act. This report should explain 

DOD’s role in the negotiations process, any issues or concerns 

about the status of negotiations, and any observations related 

to the accountability stress testing currently underway. 

Furthermore, we encourage DOD and the National 

Telecommunications and Information Administration to provide 

regular briefings to the Committees on Armed Services of the 

Senate and House or Representatives, as well as other 

congressional committees, on the status of transition planning 

and accountability stress testing.

SUBTITLE D—NUCLEAR FORCES

Preparation of annual budget request regarding nuclear weapons 

(sec. 1641)

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1631) that 

would amend section 179 of title 10, United States Code, and add 

a new requirement regarding annual transfers to the Department 

of Energy (DOE) from the Department of Defense’s (DOD) budget 

authority. Prior to making such transfers, the Secretary of 

Defense must enter into a memorandum of agreement with the 

Secretary of Energy as to how the funds will be obligated and 

expended within the Weapons Activities budget of the National 

Nuclear Security Administration (NNSA).

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision.

The agreement includes the House provision with an 

amendment that includes a waiver to the certification 

requirement if the Secretary of Defense determines such waiver 

is in the national security interest and provides a copy of the 

agreement between the Secretaries of Defense and Energy 

describing how the Secretary of Energy will obligate or expend 
279

any amounts covered by the transfer of the budget authority to 

the DOE and an explanation of why the Secretary was not able to 

certify the previous year’s DOD-to-NNSA budget transfers 

complied with previous DOD-DOE Secretaries’ agreements.

Improvement to biennial assessment on delivery platforms for 

nuclear weapons and the nuclear command and control system (sec. 

1642)

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1637) that 

would amend section 492(a)(1) of title 10, United States Code, 

to add “, and the ability to meet operational availability 

requirements for” after “military effectiveness of”.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision. 

The agreement includes the House provision.

Congressional Budget Office review of cost estimates for nuclear 

weapons (sec. 1643)

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1640) that 

would amend 1041(b) of the National Defense Authorization Act 

for Fiscal year 2013 (Public Law 112-239) to require the 

Congressional Budget Office (CBO) to submit a report to the 

congressional defense committees on an annual basis regarding 

the 10-year cost of nuclear weapons programs.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained a similar 

provision (sec. 1602) that would amend section 1043 of the 

National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2012 (Public 

Law 112-81) to require the CBO to submit such a report 120 days 

after submission of the report required by section 1043 for an 

odd-numbered fiscal year. 

The agreement includes the Senate provision with an 

amendment that would require the CBO report to be submitted by 

July 1 of each year in which the President submits a report 

under section 1043 for an odd-numbered fiscal year. The 

amendment would also require the CBO report to include an 

estimate of the relative percentage of total defense spending 

represented by nuclear weapons funding during the 10-year 

period. Finally, the amendment would require the Director of 

the CBO to submit a letter to the congressional defense 

committees if the Director determines a report under section 

1043 for an even-numbered fiscal year contains a significant 

change.

We expect the Director to use their best judgment 

regarding whether any changes are significant enough to warrant 

submission of a letter. 
280

Retention of missile silos (sec. 1644)

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1634) that 

would require the Secretary of Defense to preserve each 

intercontinental ballistic missile silo that contains a deployed 

missile as of the date of the enactment of this Act in, at a 

minimum, a warm status that enables such silo to remain a fully 

functioning element of the interconnected and redundant command 

and control system of the missile field and be made fully 

operational with a deployed missile.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision.

The agreement includes the House provision with an 

amendment that would make the requirement effective during the 

period in which the New START Treaty (as defined by section 494 

(a)(2)(D) of title 10, United States Code) is in effect. The 

amendment also includes a rule of construction that would enable 

the Department of Defense to place a silo offline temporarily to 

perform maintenance activities. 

We intend that this provision would require the Secretary 

to maintain the pertinent silos in a condition that permits them 

to be returned to operational alert status.

Procurement authority for certain parts of intercontinental 

ballistic missile fuzes (sec. 1645)

The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision 

(sec. 1601) that would give authority to procure commercial 

parts for intercontinental ballistic missile fuses, 

notwithstanding 10 United States Code 1502(a), for fiscal year 

2015.

The House bill contained no similar provision.

The agreement includes the Senate provision.

Assessment of nuclear weapon secondary requirement (sec. 1646)

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1634) that 

would require the Secretary of Defense, in coordination with the 

Secretary of Energy and the Commander, U.S. Strategic Command, 

to assess the annual nuclear weapon secondary production 

requirement needed to sustain a safe, secure, reliable, and 

effective nuclear deterrent. The Secretary of Defense would be 

required to submit a report on this assessment to the 

congressional defense committees within 180 days after the date 

of the enactment of this Act. This report would be in 

unclassified form, with a classified annex if necessary, and 

would be required to include an explanation of the rationale and 
281

assumptions that led to the current 50-to-80 per year secondary 

production requirement, including the factors considered in 

determining such requirement, and an analysis of whether there 

are any changes to the 50-to-80 per year secondary production 

requirement, including the reasons for any such changes.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision.

The agreement includes the House provision with an 

amendment that would require the report 120 days after the date 

of enactment.

Certification on nuclear force structure (sec. 1647)

enactment of this Act, the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff 

and the Commander, U.S. Strategic Command, jointly certify that 

the plan for implementation of the New START Treaty announced on 

April 8, 2014, will enable the United States to meet its 

obligations under such treaty in a manner that ensures the 

nuclear forces of the United States are capable, survivable, and 

balanced; and maintain strategic stability, deterrence and 

extended deterrence, and allied assurance.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision.

The agreement includes this provision.

Advance notice and reports on B61 life extension program (sec. 

1648)

Air and Space Intelligence Center provides indispensable 

intelligence support, and should remain organizationally aligned 

to the Headquarters Air Staff with reporting through the Vice 

Chief of Staff. In addition, this section would require the 

Secretary of the Air Force to submit to the congressional 

defense committees and the congressional intelligence committees 

a strategic plan for the intelligence organization of the Air 

Force, which includes maintaining the National Air and Space 

Intelligence Center alignment to the Headquarters Air Staff.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision.

The agreement does not include the House provision.

We did not recommend including this provision, since the Air 

Force has provided the plan the House provision would have 

required and has decided to maintain the National Air and Space 

Intelligence Center directly aligned to the Headquarters Air 

Staff. However, we will continue to monitor the Air Force’s 

implementation of its plan.

Authority for Secretary of Defense to engage in commercial 

activities as security for military operations abroad

The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision 

(sec. 1652) that would amend subsections 431 through 437 of 

title 10, United States Code, to: (1) Allow the Secretary of 

Defense to employ commercial activities as security for military 

operations, in addition to existing authority for using such 

activities for intelligence operations; (2) Direct that reports 
288

activities used as security for military operations, are 

reported to the congressional defense committees only; and (3) 

Make conforming changes throughout these subsections. 

The House bill contained no similar provision.

The agreement does not include this provision. We believe 

that this could be a useful authority, but would have to receive 

better answers from the Department of Defense (DOD) to questions 

that were raised after DOD requested this authority. We would 

reevaluate this request in the future if DOD continues to 

identify a need for the authority. 

Budget increase for Aegis ballistic missile defense

Secretary of Defense required by section 933 are consistent with 

the cyber operations capability needs of the United States.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision.

The agreement does not include this provision.

We note that the Secretary’s cyber mission analysis report 

did not include a certification that the Red Team personnel and 

capacity in the Air National Guard are no longer required by the 

Department of Defense, and may not be reduced or reassigned 

without such a certification.
289

Independent review of the personnel reliability program of the 

Department of Defense and the human reliability program of the 

Department of Energy

Energy to jointly seek to enter into a contract with a federally 

funded research and development center to conduct an independent 

review of the Personnel Reliability Program (PRP) of the 

Department of Defense and the Human Reliability Program of the 

Department of Energy.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision.

The agreement does not include this provision. 

We note that the Department of Defense is currently reviewing 

its PRP as part of a broader assessment of needs within its 

nuclear enterprise. We expect this review will offer 

significant recommendations for modernizing PRP to make it both 

more effective and more efficient. We further expect that the 

Department of Energy will apply lessons learned from the 

Department of Defense’s review to its own, similar program. We 

will continue close oversight of this matter.

Integrated plan on space launch activities of the federal 

government

A proposed amendment to the Senate committee-reported bill 

(amendment number 3814)contained a provision that would require 

the Secretary of Defense and the Administrator of the National 

Aeronautics and Space Administration to jointly, in coordination 

with the National Security Council, the Director of the Office 

of Science and Technology Policy and the heads of other 

appropriate agencies of the Federal Government, develop a plan 

to achieve the effective planning, coordination, and execution 

for the civil and national security space launch activities of 

the Federal Government in order to ensure that the mission needs 

of the United States of reliable, timely, and affordable access 

to space for all agencies are met in a cost-effective manner.

The House bill contained no similar provision.

The agreement does not include this provision.

We direct the Secretary of Defense, in consultation with 

the Administrator of the National Aeronautics and Space 

Administration, and the heads of other appropriate agencies of 

the Federal Government, to identify and assess opportunities for 

coordination among Federal agencies in space launch acquisition 

efforts, and provide a summary of the lessons learned by the 

Department of Defense and the National Aeronautics and Space 
290

Administration regarding their launch service programs. The 

results of the study shall be provided to the appropriate 

congressional committees in the form of a briefing no later than 

December 31, 2015.

Furthermore, we direct the Government Accountability 

Office (GAO) to assess the results of the study as presented in 

the briefing to Congress, as well as update the related space 

launch findings and recommendations reported in the 2012 GAO 

Annual Report titles “Opportunities to Reduce Duplication, 

Overlap and Fragmentation, Achieve Savings, and Enhance 

Revenue.” The GAO shall provide the results of the assessment 

within 90 days of receiving the briefing provided to Congress.

Reports and briefings of Strategic Advisory Group

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1638) that 

would require the Commander, U.S. Strategic Command to provide 

to the congressional defense committees a copy of each briefing 

and report prepared by his Strategy Advisory Group, including 

any subgroup thereof and any successor advisory group, provided 

to him in the previous year. 

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision. 

The agreement does not include this provision. We are 

aware that the Commander wrote to the Chairman of the House 

Armed Services Committee on May 19, 2014 and committed to 

providing the committees with briefings on the materials 

provided to him by the Strategic Advisory Group. We believe 

this will be a useful arrangement for the oversight function of 

the committees. We also believe that, from time to time, it may 

be necessary to receive copies of these reports, and we look 

forward to working with the Commander in the event the 

committees believe that it is necessary. With this 

understanding, we choose not to adopt section 1638 of the House 

bill at this time.

Report on governance and corruption in the Russian Federation

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1617) that 

would direct the Director of National Intelligence to submit a

The House bill contained no similar provision.

The agreement does not include this provision.

We agree that the RAND study “U.S. Space Launch Capability 

– An Assessment of the Use of Foreign Components”, (December 

2013), as required by section 916 of the National Defense 

Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2013 (Public Law 112-239) 

obviates the need for an additional study at this time.

Sense of Congress on procurement and deployment of capability 

enhancement II exo-atmospheric kill vehicle

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1642) that 

would express the sense of Congress that the Department of 

Defense (DOD) should not procure an additional Capability 

Enhancement-II (CE-II) exo-atmospheric kill vehicle for 

deployment on Ground-Based Interceptors of the Ground-based 

Midcourse Defense (GMD) system until a successful operationally 

realistic intercept flight test of the CE-II has occurred.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision.

The agreement does not include this provision.

We note that, after the House bill was passed, a 

successful intercept flight test of the GMD system, using an 

upgraded version of the CE-II kill vehicle, took place on June 

22, 2014. This successful flight test result allowed DOD to 

resume assembly and delivery of GBIs with upgraded CE-II kill 

vehicles for deployment.

Sense of the Senate on resolution limits on commercial space 

imagery

The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision 

(sec. 1631) that would express the sense of the Senate that the 

Secretary of Defense should support the relaxation of 

panchromatic, spectral, and infrared imagery resolution limits 

on the sale of commercial space imagery. The provision would 

also require the Under Secretary of Defense for Policy to 

provide a recommendation to Congress by April 1, 2015, on the 

design and development of a flexible and dynamic capability to 
292

control the collection and sale of commercial space imagery to 

protect national security.

The House bill contained no similar provision.

The agreement does not include this provision.

We direct the Secretary of Defense, in coordination with 

the Director of National Intelligence, to brief the 

congressional defense and intelligence committees on the 

progress achieved in developing a flexible and dynamic 

capability to control the collection and sale of commercial 

space imagery to protect national security.

Theater air and missile defense of allies of the United States

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1641) that 

would require the operational deployment of the Aegis Ashore 

missile defense system in Poland by December 31, 2016, and would

defense system or the Terminal High Altitude Area Defense 

terminal missile defense system in Poland by the end of 2014.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision. 

The agreement does not include this provision.

that would establish a National Commission on the Future of the 

Army to conduct a comprehensive review of the Army’s size, 

structure, and force mix.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained a similar 

provision (secs. 1701–1709).

The agreement includes the Senate provision with 

amendments that would clarify the limitations on the authority 

of the Secretary of Defense and the Secretary of the Army with 

respect to the transfer of AH-64 Apache attack helicopters from 

the Army National Guard (ARNG) to the regular Army. The 

agreement also includes amendments that would clarify the duties 

of such a commission.
293

We expect the Army and ARNG to immediately proceed with 

appropriate planning and preparation activities for the transfer 

of up to 48 AH-64 Apache aircraft prior to March 31, 2016. Such 

preparations should include all necessary personnel and 

materiel-related actions required to facilitate such transfers. 

We also expect the Army and ARNG to continue the planning 

necessary for the potential implementation of the rest of the 

Army’s Aviation Restructure Initiative so that disruptions to 

the readiness of the Army and ARNG are minimized in the event 

that Congress approves additional elements of the Army’s plan 

beyond March 31, 2016.

TITLE XXI–ARMY MILITARY CONSTRUCTION

Summary

The Department of Defense requested authorization of 

appropriations of $539.4 million for military construction and 

$429.6 million for family housing for the Army for fiscal year 

2015. 

The agreement includes authorization of appropriations of 

$543.4 million for military construction and $429.6 million for 

family housing for the Army for fiscal year 2015.

The budget request included $96.0 million for the third of 

six planned phases of construction of a Command and Control 

Facility at Fort Shafter, Hawaii. We understand that all six 

phases are necessary to provide for a complete facility that 

meets the requirements of U.S. Army Pacific. Furthermore, we 

understand that combining the remaining four phases into a 

single authorized project would save the Army significant 

military construction funding and accelerate facility 

construction by up to 4 years.

Therefore, the agreement includes authorization of $311.4 

million for the remaining four phases of the Command and Control 

Facility at Fort Shafter, Hawaii. This authorization assumes at 

least 10 percent savings will be achieved through construction 

and contracting efficiencies. Consistent with these 

efficiencies, the agreement includes an authorization of 

appropriations for fiscal year 2015 of $85.0 million for the 

first increment of this project.

We believe that it is inappropriate to phase, rather than 

increment, large military construction projects when each 

distinct phase does not fully meet the requirements of the user 

and direct the Army to refrain from requesting similarly phased 

projects in the future.

We recognize that in difficult budget times military 

construction funding is often deferred in favor of other 

priorities and note that the Army’s military construction 

request for fiscal year 2015 is 52 percent less than what was 

requested for fiscal year 2014. Therefore, the agreement 

includes authorization of $15.0 million for a Consolidated 
296

Shipping Center at Blue Grass Army Depot, Kentucky, $46.0 

million for a Simulations Center at Fort Hood, Texas, and $86.0 

million for Phase 3 of the Individual Training Barracks Complex 

at Fort Lee, Virginia, the Army’s top unfunded military 

construction priorities.

TITLE XXII–NAVY MILITARY CONSTRUCTION

Summary

The Department of Defense requested authorization of 

appropriations of $1.02 billion for military construction and 

$370.4 million for family housing for the Department of the Navy 

for fiscal year 2015. 

The agreement includes authorization of appropriations of 

$993.2 million for military construction and $370.4 million for 

family housing for the Department of the Navy for fiscal year 

2015.

The budget request included $120.1 million for a Center 

for Cyber Studies Building in Annapolis, Maryland. We understand 

the Navy would be unable to expend the full amount of the budget 

request and, therefore, the agreement includes a $90.1 million 

reduction.

We recognize that in difficult budget times military 

construction funding is often deferred in favor of other 

priorities and note that the Navy’s military construction 

request for fiscal year 2015 is 40 percent less than what was 

requested for fiscal year 2014. Therefore, the agreement 

includes authorization of $13.8 million for a Regional Ship 

Maintenance Support Facility at Bangor, Washington, and $50.7 
299

million for a Radio Battalion Complex at Camp Lejeune, North 

Carolina, the top unfunded military construction priorities of 

the Navy and Marine Corps, respectively.

construction funding is often deferred in favor of other 

priorities and note that the Air Force’s military construction 

request for fiscal year 2015 is 30 percent less than what was

CONSTRUCTION

Summary

The Department of Defense requested authorization of 

appropriations of $2.06 billion for military construction for

The agreement includes authorization of appropriations of 

$1.96 billion for military construction, $150.0 million for 

energy conservation projects, $38.7 million for chemical 

demilitarization construction, and $61.1 million for family 

housing for the defense agencies for fiscal year 2015.

The budget request included $259.7 million for the Medical 

Center Replacement at Rhine Ordnance Barracks, Germany. We 

understand the Department of Defense would be unable to expend 

the full amount of the budget request and, therefore, the 

agreement includes a $70.0 million reduction.

The budget request included $9.0 million for Contingency 

Construction. In light of unobligated balances in the 

Contingency Construction account from previous years, the 

agreement includes a $9.0 million reduction.

The budget request included $24.4 million for Planning and 

Design. In light of unobligated balances in the Planning and 

Design account from previous years, the agreement includes a

Security Investment Program. 

The agreement includes authorization of appropriations of 

$174.7 million for military construction in fiscal year 2015 for 

the North Atlantic Treaty Organization Security Investment 

Program.

We understand that the North Atlantic Treaty Organization 

Security Investment Program has expended prior year funds more 

slowly than anticipated and does not require the full requested 

amount for fiscal year 2015. Therefore, the agreement includes a 

$25.0 million reduction.

LEGISLATIVE PROVISIONS ADOPTED

Authorized NATO construction and land acquisition projects (sec. 

2501)

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 2501) that

FACILITIES

Summary

The Department of Defense requested authorization of 

appropriations of $426.5 million for military construction in 

fiscal year 2015 for facilities for the guard and reserve 

components. 

The agreement includes authorization of appropriations of 

$532.1 million for military construction in fiscal year 2015 for 

facilities for the guard and reserve components.

We recognize that in difficult budget times military 

construction funding is often deferred in favor of other 

priorities and notes that the Department’s military construction 

request for the guard and reserve components for fiscal year 

2015 is 38 percent less than what was requested for fiscal year 

2014. Therefore, the agreement includes authorization of $5.0 

million for a Readiness Center in Alamogordo, New Mexico; $19.0 

million for Enlisted Barracks at Yakima, Washington; $10.8 

million for a Vehicle Maintenance Shop in Dagsboro, Delaware;

infrastructure. The report would also compare these two items 

to determine categories of excess in the Department of Defense 

infrastructure. The Secretary of Defense would also certify 

whether the need exists for the closure or realignment of 

additional military installations and whether the Secretary

infrastructure capacity associated with military installations. 

However, those estimates are based on outdated data from the 
313

analysis done in support of the 2005 BRAC round. The Department 

of Defense and military departments have also stated that 

overall force structure reductions may generate additional 

excess infrastructure capacity. However, we are aware that the 

military departments are implementing installation management 

methods that may serve to diminish excess infrastructure 

capacity. 

Due to the force structure changes and infrastructure 

investments and management strategies that have occurred since 

the 2005 BRAC round, we believe that excess infrastructure 

capacity assessments should be based on current infrastructure 

data and informed by current force structure projections. We 

believe the Department of Defense has the authority to provide 

such an updated analysis but to date has not provided such an 

assessment. 

Final settlement of claims regarding caretaker agreement for 

former Defense Depot Ogden, Utah

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 2723) that 

would limit any further claim adjudication associated with a 

caretaker agreement between the City of Ogden, Utah, the Ogden 

Local Redevelopment Authority, and the Department of the Army. 

This limitation would be conditioned on a release of claims 

against the United States by the City of Ogden and the Ogden 

Local Redevelopment Authority. 

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision. 

The agreement does not include this provision. 

TITLE XXVIII–MILITARY CONSTRUCTION GENERAL 

PROVISIONS

SUBTITLE A–MILITARY CONSTRUCTION PROGRAM 

AND MILITARY FAMILY HOUSING CHANGES

Congressional notification of construction projects, land 

acquisitions, and defense access road projects conducted under 

authorities other than a Military Construction Authorization Act 

(sec. 2801)

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 2801) that 

would amend section 2802 of title 10, United States Code, to 

clarify that certain military construction projects, land 

acquisitions, and defense-access roads projects must be 
314

specifically authorized in a Military Construction Authorization 

Act. 

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision. 

The agreement includes the House provision with an 

amendment that would instead modify section 2802 of title 10, 

United States Code, to require that the Secretary concerned 

notify the congressional defense committees at least 15 days 

prior to the initiation of any construction, land acquisition, 

or defense-access road project by a military department, Defense 

Agency, or Department of Defense Field Activity on a military 

installation that will be carried out pursuant to a provision of 

law other than a Military Construction Authorization Act.

Modification of authority to carry out unspecified minor 

military construction (sec. 2802)

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 2802) that 

would modify section 2805 of title 10, United States Code, by 

increasing the threshold associated with operation and 

maintenance funding for minor military construction purposes 

from $750,000 to $1.0 million. This section would also unify 

the threshold for application of unspecified minor construction 

from $2.0 million to $3.0 million. Finally, this section would 

authorize the Secretary concerned to make adjustments to the 

general authority to match area cost factors. 

The Senate committee-reported bill contained a similar 

provision (sec. 2803) that would increase the maximum amount of 

unspecified minor military construction funding that can be used 

to correct facility deficiencies that threaten the life, safety, 

or health of personnel from $3.0 million to $4.0 million. The 

committee recommended an increase in this threshold to reflect 

its view that life, safety, and health deficiencies are at least 

equal to, if not more important than, laboratory revitalization 

for which the unspecified minor military construction threshold 

is $4.0 million.

The agreement includes the House provision with an 

amendment that would remove the authorization to make 

adjustments to the general authority to match area cost factors 

and add the Senate provision increasing the threshold for 

projects designed to correct facility deficiencies that threaten 

the life, safety, or health of personnel.

Clarification of authorized use of payments-in-kind and in-kind 

contributions (sec. 2803)
315

The Senate committee-reported bill included a provision 

(sec. 2801) that would clarify the requirement of section 

2687(a) of title 10, United States Code, as amended by section 

2807 of the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 

2014 (Public Law 113-66), that military construction projects 

built with in-kind payments or in-kind contributions required by 

bilateral agreements be specifically authorized by law. 

The House bill contained no similar provision.

The agreement includes the Senate provision with an

amendment that would make the provision effective beginning on 

the later of September 30, 2016, or the date of enactment of an 

Act authorizing funds for military construction for fiscal year 

2017. The provision would also exempt military construction 

projects funded with payments-in-kind or in-kind contributions 

that were the subject of negotiation between the United States 

and a host country as of the date of enactment of this Act. 

Lastly, the provision would require, until the effective date, 

notification to the congressional defense committees at least 30 

days prior to initiating any military construction project built 

for Department of Defense personnel outside the United States 

using payments-in-kind or in-kind contributions and make other 

conforming changes.

Use of one-step turn-key contractor selection procedures for 

additional facility projects (sec. 2804)

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 2803) that 

would modify section 2862 of title 10, United States Code, by 

expanding the existing authority to use turn-key selection 

procedures for military construction projects to include certain 

repair projects and facility construction associated with 

authorized security assistance activities. 

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision.

The agreement includes the House provision.

Limitations on military construction in European Command area of 

responsibility and European Reassurance Initiative (sec. 2805)

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 2804) that 

would extend the prohibition previously included in section 2809 

of the Military Construction Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 

2014 (division B of Public Law 113-66) on awarding a contract 

for any new military construction and family housing project, 

with certain exceptions, in the U.S. European Command area of 

responsibility until the Secretary of Defense certifies to the 

congressional defense committees that the installations and 
316

specific military construction requirements authorized in the 

Act have been examined as part of the ongoing European 

Infrastructure Consolidation Assessment, have been determined to 

be of an enduring nature, and most effectively meet military 

requirements at the authorized location.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained a similar 

provision (sec. 2805).

The agreement includes the House provision with an 

amendment that, for projects authorized in title XXIX of this 

Act to support the European Reassurance Initiative, would 

require the Secretary of Defense to provide a military 

construction project data sheet and certification that a prefinancing statement for eligible projects has been submitted 

through the North Atlantic Treaty Organization Security 

Investment Program to the congressional defense committees prior 

to awarding a contract in connection with any such project.

Extension of temporary, limited authority to use operation and 

maintenance funds for construction projects in certain areas 

outside the United States (sec. 2806)

The Senate committee-reported bill included a provision 

(sec. 2804) that would extend the contingency construction 

authority contained in section 2808 of the Military Construction 

Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2004 (division B of Public Law 

108–136), as amended, for an additional year. 

The House bill contained no similar provision.

The agreement includes the Senate provision. 

Application of residential building construction standards (sec. 

2807)

The Senate committee-reported bill included a provision 

(sec. 2802) that would allow for residential buildings designed 

and constructed using funds authorized by this Act to meet an 

above code green building standard or rating system to use the 

ICC 700 National Green Building Standard, the LEED Green 

Building Standard System, or an equivalent protocol.

The House bill contained no similar provision.

The agreement includes the Senate provision with an 

amendment that would further modify the list of above code green 

building standard or rating systems that may be used by the 

Department of Defense (DOD).

We are concerned that the DOD may not be considering all 

appropriate voluntary consensus green building systems or 

standards, as defined in the Office of Management and Budget 

Circular Number A–119, and their associated certification 
317

systems, when performing the renovation or construction of 

residential buildings. We believe that DOD should consider all 

appropriate voluntary consensus green building systems or 

standards and, in doing so, should focus on energy savings and 

cost-efficiency, using a comprehensive approach that factors in 

all facets of a green building including costs for certification 

and overall compliance when determining which green building 

standard or rating system to use. DOD should also consider using 

third party verification to ensure design and construction meet 

the requirements for certification, and include user training 

and education to ensure the building is operated efficiently.

Limitation on construction of new facilities at Guantanamo Bay, 

Cuba (sec. 2808)

The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision 

(sec. 2806) that would limit funding authorized by the bill for 

new facilities at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, until the Secretary of 

Defense certifies to the congressional defense committees that 

any new construction of facilities at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, have 

enduring military value independent of a high-value detention 

mission. 

The House bill contained no similar provision. 

The agreement includes the Senate provision.

We note that the Department of Defense has previously 

determined that all new facilities at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, 

authorized by this Act have enduring military value independent 

of a high-value detention mission.

SUBTITLE B–REAL PROPERTY AND FACILITIES 

ADMINISTRATION

Renewals, extensions, and succeeding leases for financial 

institutions operating on military installations (sec. 2811)

would authorize the Secretary concerned to enter into a sole 

source renewal, extension, or succeeding lease for a financial 

institution operating on a military installation.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained a similar 

provision (sec. 2812).

The agreement includes the House provision.

Deposit of reimbursed funds to cover administrative expenses 

relating to certain real property transactions (sec. 2812)
318

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 2814) that 

would amend section 2695 of title 10, United States Code, and 

would provide flexibility to ensure that reimbursements 

eventually received by the military departments are not expired 

at the time of reimbursement. This section would provide for 

the merger of the reimbursed funds with those in the current 

appropriation, fund, or account used by the military departments 

for payment of administrative transaction-related expenses. 

Finally, this section would authorize the military departments 

to use operation and maintenance appropriations to pay for 

administrative expenses needed to complete other real property 

transactions. 

The Senate committee-reported bill included a similar 

provision (sec. 2811).

The agreement includes the House provision. 

SUBTITLE C–PROVISIONS RELATED TO ASIAPACIFIC MILITARY REALIGNMENT

Realignment of Marine Corps forces in Asia-Pacific region (sec. 

2821)

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 2831) that 

would amend section 2822 of the Military Construction 

Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2014 (division B of Public Law 

113-66) and strike certain restrictions limiting the movement of 

Marine Corps forces from Okinawa, Japan, to Guam.

The Senate bill contained a related provision (sec. 2821) 

that would extend the prohibition on funds for construction 

activities to implement the realignment of Marine Corps forces 

from Okinawa, Japan, to Guam until certain conditions are met. 

The agreement includes the Senate provision with an 

amendment that would remove the prohibition on construction 

activities to implement the realignment of Marine Corps forces 

from Okinawa, Japan, to Guam and replace it with an overall cost 

cap on such construction, reflecting the July 2014 Master Plan 

for Guam, subject to inflation and changes in costs to comply 

with changes in law. The provision would also continue 

restrictions on the development of public infrastructure on Guam 

unless a grant, transfer, cooperative agreement, or supplemental 

funding for the development of public infrastructure is 

specifically authorized by law and would be used to carry out a 

project included in the report of the Economic Adjustment 

Committee required by section 2831(d) of the National Defense 

Authorization act for Fiscal Year 2014 (Public Law 113-66).
319

Establishment of surface danger zone, Ritidian Unit, Guam 

National Wildlife Refuge (sec. 2822)

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 2832) that 

would allow the Secretary of the Navy and the Secretary of the

live-fire training range on Andersen Air Force Base-Northwest 

Field and provide for the management of the adjacent Guam 

National Wildlife Refuge property.

would authorize the Secretary of the Army to convey, without 

consideration, Army property at the former Walter Reed Army 

Medical Center to Children's National Medical Center for medical 

research purposes.

provision.

The agreement contains the House provision with an 

amendment that would authorize the Secretary of the Army to 

convey certain Army property at the former Walter Reed Army 

Medical Center to the Department of State. Furthermore, should 

the authorized conveyance to the Department of State not occur, 

the amendment would allow the Secretary of the Army to convey, 

without consideration, certain property to an authorized 

recipient for the purpose of permitting the recipient to use the 

property for the protection of public health, including 

research.

We note that the Army and Department of State have been 

pursuing an interagency transfer of property and facilities at 

the former Walter Reed Army Medical Center since April 2006 and 

we encourage both agencies to work together to conclude 

negotiations expeditiously. If the Army pursues the alternative 

conveyance authority provided by this section, we believe such a 

conveyance should be conducted in a manner that is consistent 

with the disposal process of real property for public health, 

including research, as found in section 550 of title 40, United 

States Code.

Land conveyance, former Lynn Haven fuel depot, Lynn Haven, 

Florida (sec. 2835)

A proposed amendment to the Senate committee-reported bill 

(amendment number 3842) contained a provision that would

Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 1996 (division B of Public Law 

104-106). 

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision.

The agreement includes the House provision.

Transfer of administrative jurisdiction, Camp Gruber, Oklahoma 

(sec. 2839)

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 2847) that 

would require the Secretary of the Army to perform a business 
322

case analysis to assess the requirements associated with 

reacquiring the former Camp Gruber, Oklahoma. If the Secretary 

determined that a reversion of the former Camp Gruber is needed 

for national defense purposes, the Secretary would exercise the 

reversionary rights and request the Oklahoma Department of 

Wildlife to reconvey Camp Gruber to the United States. The 

Secretary would then convey, without consideration, the former 

Camp Gruber to the Oklahoma Military Department for military 

maneuver space.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained a similar 

provision (sec. 2834) that would provide for the transfer of 

administrative jurisdiction of property at Camp Gruber,

Conveyance, Joint Base Charleston, South Carolina (sec. 2840)

A proposed amendment to the Senate committee-reported bill 

(amendment number 3942) contained a provision that would 

authorize the Secretary of the Air Force to convey approximately 

53 acres at Joint Base Charleston, South Carolina, to the City 

of Hanahan for the purpose of accommodating the City’s

exchange real property with Arlington County, Virginia, and the 

Commonwealth of Virginia, for purposes of expanding the 

contiguous land available to Arlington National Cemetery.

The House bill contained no similar provision.

The agreement includes the Senate provision with a 

clarifying amendment.

We believe that any use of land exchanged by the Army with 

Arlington County, Virginia, and the Commonwealth of Virginia 

should be compatible with a location immediately adjacent to 

Arlington National Cemetery, one of our Nation's most sacred 

shrines.

SUBTITLE E–MILITARY MEMORIALS, MONUMENTS, 

AND MUSEUMS
323

Acceptance of in-kind gifts on behalf of Heritage Center for the 

National Museum of the United States Army (sec. 2851)

A proposed amendment to the Senate committee-reported bill 

(amendment number 3915) contained a provision that would amend 

section 4772 of title 10, United States Code, to authorize the 

Secretary of the Army to accept funds and in-kind gifts, 

including services, construction materials, and equipment used 

in construction, for the Heritage Center for the National Museum 

of the United States Army from the Army Historical Foundation 

and industry donors. The provision would also remove the 

$250,000 limit on the value of gifts that may be accepted by the 

Commander of the United States Army Center of Military History.

The House bill contained no similar provision.

The agreement includes this provision with an amendment 

that would retain the $250,000 limit on the value of gifts that 

may be accepted by the Commander of the United States Army 

Center of Military History. We note that the Secretary of the 

Army has authority to accept gifts of a value greater than 

$250,000.

amendment that would authorize the Secretary of Defense to 

convey the Mt. Soledad Veterans Memorial in San Diego, 

California, to the Mount Soledad Veterans Memorial Association 

for consideration that reasonably reflects the price paid by the 

United States to purchase the Memorial pursuant to Public Law 

109–272, the condition that the property be accepted "as is", 

the condition that the Memorial be used and maintained as a 

veterans memorial in perpetuity, and other factors. The 

provision would also provide for the United States, at its 

election, to exercise reversionary rights to the Memorial if the 

Secretary of Defense determines that it is ever put to a use 

other than as a veterans memorial. Exercise of any reversionary 

rights would be temporary and solely for the purpose of 

conveying, as expeditiously as practicable, the Memorial to 

another entity subject to the same conditions in this provision.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained a similar 

provision (sec. 2841).

The agreement includes the Senate provision with a 

technical amendment.

Prior to establishment of the memorial authorized under 

this section, we direct the Secretary of the Navy to provide a 

report to the congressional defense committees detailing, at a 

minimum, the design, specific location, and funding dedicated to 

the construction and long-term maintenance of the memorial.

The agreement includes the Senate provision with a 

technical amendment.

LEGISLATIVE PROVISIONS NOT ADOPTED

Report on prevalence of black mold in buildings located on 

military installations

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 2805) that 

would require the Secretary of Defense to report on the 

prevalence of black mold in buildings located on military 

installations and add affected buildings to the appropriate 

branch's construction priority list for building replacement or 

renovation.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision.

The agreement does not include this provision.

We note that indoor exposure to mold can cause a variety 

of negative health impacts, including allergic reactions. We 

encourage the Department of Defense and the military departments 

to continue taking cost-effective, timely, and appropriate 

actions to prevent the formation of, and remediate reported 

cases of, indoor mold in facilities located on military 

installations.

Consultation requirement in connection with Department of 

Defense major land acquisitions

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 2811) that

location of any proposed major land acquisition. 

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision. 

The agreement does not include this provision.

Arsenal installation reutilization authority

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 2813) that 

would modify section 2667 of title 10, United States Code, to 

provide authorities to lease real or personal property contained 

in such section to the commander of military manufacturing 

arsenals or, if part of a larger military installation, the 

installation commander for the purposes of leveraging private 

investment at military manufacturing arsenals through long-term 

facility use contracts, property management contracts, leases or 

other such agreements.
326

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision.

The agreement does not include this provision.

Special easement acquisition authority, Pacific Missile Range 

Facility, Barking Sands, Kauai, Hawaii

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 2815) that 

would authorize the Secretary of the Navy to use the authorities 

provided by sections 2664 and 2684(a) of title 10, United States 

Code, to acquire from willing sellers easements and other 

interests in real property in the vicinity of the Pacific 

Missile Range Facility, Kauai, Hawaii.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision.

The agreement does not include this provision.

We note that the Department of Defense and the military 

departments have authorities under sections 2664 and 2684(a) of 

title 10, United States Code, to enter into agreements with or 

acquire from willing sellers easements and other interests in 

real property in the vicinity of military installations and 

range facilities. In instances where a military installation or 

range facility is subject to encroachment or other restrictions 

that may directly or indirectly restrict, impede, or otherwise 

interfere with current or anticipated military training, 

testing, or operations, we believe the Department of Defense and 

military departments should consider the authorities of sections 

2664 and 2684(a) of title 10, United States Code, as a possible 

means to alleviate adverse impacts to military missions.

Sense of Congress on national security and public lands

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 2817) that 

would express the sense of Congress that national defense should 

be the top priority for all aspects of the Federal Government, 

and that national security functions, such as military training 

and exercises, should be the top priority, particularly with 

regard to the use of land owned by the United States.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision. 

The agreement does not include this provision. 

The Department of Defense regularly uses federal land 

owned by the U.S. Government for military training, including to 

prepare U.S. forces deploying overseas for the terrain and 

climate they will encounter, as well as for testing of new 

military technologies. We note that such access to U.S. federal 

lands facilitates military preparedness and advances the 
327

technological edge of our forces. Therefore, we believe such 

activities should be given priority consideration with regard to 

the use of land owned by the United States.

Indemnification of transferees of property at military 

installations closed since October 24, 1988, that remain under 

the jurisdiction of the Department of Defense

at White Sands Missile Range, New Mexico, to include Federal 

lands located beneath the boundaries of the Special Use Airspace 

designated as R-5107C and R-5107H.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision.

The agreement does not include this provision.

We note that on June 4, 2014, the Secretary of Defense 

proposed mitigation measures that, if adopted, are intended to 

address the Department of Defense’s (DOD) concerns with 

potential impacts to military operations by the SunZia Southwest 

Transmission project (SunZia). Most notably, the Secretary 

proposed the burial of a total of approximately five miles, in 

up to three separate segments, of the SunZia project 

transmission line along the Bureau of Land Management’s (BLM) 

preferred alternative route (PAR) north of White Sands Missile 

Range (WSMR), within an area known as the Northern Extension 

Area (NEA). We further note that the Secretary’s proposed 

mitigation plan was accepted by SunZia on July 27, 2014, and is 

now being reviewed by BLM in the context of an Environmental 

Assessment that we anticipate will be completed in February 

2015.

As we noted in the Joint Explanatory Statement to 

accompany the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 

2014 (Public Law 113-66), we expressed our expectation that DOD 

concerns would be addressed by the executive branch prior to the 

conclusion of the environmental review process to preserve the 

critical testing and training capabilities of WSMR. We continue 

to have concerns about the impact the SunZia project may have on 

these capabilities. We are specifically concerned that the 

mitigation measures proposed by the Secretary of Defense are 

intended to address existing and expected test profiles, but may 

not be sufficient to provide for future training and testing 

requirements at WSMR. 

Therefore, we direct the Secretary of Defense to submit a 

report to the congressional defense committees, concurrent with 

the completion of the BLM Environmental Assessment, that 

assesses the potential impact of the SunZia project on the 

future training and testing capabilities of WSMR to respond to 

potential future threats. The report shall include, at a 

minimum, an explanation of the Secretary’s proposed mitigation 

plan, including:

(1) How the proposed mitigation plan addresses 

concerns identified in the “Technical Working Group Report 

for the SunZia Transmission Line Project” dated August 7, 

2013, including the following specific excerpts:

(a) Line Burial – “The distance required for 

line burial is 35 miles. This is the minimum distance 

necessary to prevent impairment of the Nation’s unique 

capabilities to test DOD weapon systems in this location.”
329

(b) Electromagnetic Interference (EMI) -

“Introduction of the 500 kV overhead transmission lines in 

the NEA would raise the background noise level and create a 

heat signature that would be detected during infrared (IR) 

sensor testing. At present, there is very limited EMI 

interference within the NEA.”

(c) Test mission profiles - “The above-ground 

construction and introduction of the SunZia transmission 

line along the FEIS [Final Environmental Impact Statement] 

PAR places an obstruction in the path of low-level flyers, 

thus jeopardizing the effective conduct of testing. Targets 

flying critical low-level profiles would have to “pop up” 

from those flight levels to avoid transmission lines. The 

FAA [Federal Aviation Administration] requires a 500 foot 

buffer above structures for safety considerations. Such a 

“pop up” would prematurely provide identification and 

targeting and thus disrupt and invalidate the test mission 

profile because of the change in the observed background 

clutter.” 

(d) Multiple Simultaneous Engagement (MSE) of 

Aerial Targets – “The most stressing and complex test 

missions involve MSE of aerial targets in a single 

presentation. This requirement alone mandates the 35-mile 

underground installation of the transmission line to ensure 

that incoming targets are in the proper alignment to the 

background clutter for a realistic presentation.”

(2) How the SunZia project and proposed mitigation 

plan could impact future training and testing events at 

WSMR;

(3) An identification of any additional mitigation 

measures that may be necessary in the future to protect the 

unique capabilities of WSMR should new training or testing 

requirements arise; and

(4) An assessment by the Secretary of the DOD 

Clearinghouse process as it relates to the SunZia project, 

including:

(a) The extent to which the DOD Clearinghouse 

identified and communicated potential negative impacts of 

the SunZia project to WSMR in a timely manner; and

(b) Any legislative or policy changes the 

Secretary would recommend to improve the ability of DOD 

Clearinghouse to advocate for and protect DOD equities.

 (5) Any other matters the Secretary deems 

appropriate.

We note that the report required above is not intended to, 

in any way, delay the completion of the BLM Environmental 
330

Assessment associated with the SunZia Southwest Transmission 

project.

assurance.

TITLE XXXI—DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY NATIONAL 

SECURITY PROGRAMS

SUBTITLE A-NATIONAL SECURITY PROGRAMS 

AUTHORIZATIONS

National Nuclear Security Administration (sec. 3101)

The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision 

(sec. 3101) that would authorize appropriations for the National 

Nuclear Security Administration for fiscal year 2015, including 

funds for weapons activities, defense nuclear nonproliferation 

programs, naval reactor programs, and Federal Salaries and 

Expenses (formerly known as the Office of the Administrator), at 

the levels identified in section 4701 of division D of this Act. 

This section would also authorize several new plant projects for 

the National Nuclear Security Administration.

The House reported bill contained a similar provision.

The agreement includes the Senate provision.

Defense environmental cleanup (sec. 3102)

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 3102) that 

would authorize appropriations for defense environmental cleanup 
337

activities for fiscal year 2015, at the levels identified in 

section 4701 of division D of this Act. This section would also 

authorize several new plant projects for defense environmental 

cleanup.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained an identical 

provision (sec. 3102).

The agreement includes this provision.

Other defense activities (sec. 3103)

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 3103) that 

would authorize appropriations for other defense activities for 

fiscal year 2015, including funds for Health, Safety, and 

Security, the Office of Legacy Management, and Nuclear Energy, 

as identified in section 4701 of division D of this Act.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained an identical 

provision (sec. 3103). 

The agreement includes this provision.

SUBTITLE B-PROGRAM AUTHORIZATIONS, 

RESTRICTIONS, AND LIMITATIONS

Design and use of prototypes of nuclear weapons for intelligence 

purposes (sec. 3111)

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 3111) that 

would update section 3115 of the National Defense Authorization 

Act for Fiscal Year 2013 (Public Law 112–239) to provide for the 

design and use of prototypes of nuclear weapons to further 

intelligence estimates with respect to foreign nuclear weapons 

activities.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision. 

The agreement includes the House provision with an 

amendment that would permit the Secretary of Energy to submit 

his views of the programmatic plan for such activities as 

developed by the National Nuclear Security Administration 

laboratories.

Plutonium pit production capacity (sec. 3112)

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 3114) that 

would add a new section to title 42 of the Atomic Energy Defense 

Act (50 U.S.C. 2521) to require the Secretary of Energy to 

ensure that the nuclear security enterprise produces at least 30 

war reserve pits during 2023, at least 50 war reserve pits 
338

during 2026, and, during a pilot period of at least 90 days 

during 2027, demonstrates the capability to produce war reserve 

pits at a rate sufficient to produce 80 pits per year. The 

Secretary of Energy would be required to certify to the 

congressional defense committees and the Secretary of Defense, 

by March 1 of each year until 2027, that the programs and budget 

of the Department of Energy will meet these pit production 

milestones.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision.

The agreement includes the House provision with an 

amendment that, in addition to striking the findings, would 

require initial production of qualification pits in 2021, 

production of not less than 10 war reserve pits during 2024, 

production of not less than 20 war reserve pits during 2025, 

production of not less than 30 war reserve pits during 2026, and 

a pilot production period during 2027 that demonstrates the 

capability to produce 80 pits per year. The agreement provides 

the Secretary of Energy and the Secretary of Defense the 

authority to delay the requirement for the pilot demonstration 

in 2027 no more than two years to 2029. If the Secretaries 

jointly delay the pilot demonstration, they must submit a report 

to the congressional defense committees describing the 

justification for the proposed delay, the impacts of the 

proposed delay on stockpile stewardship, nuclear modernization, 

life extension programs, future stockpile strategy, and 

dismantlement efforts, as well as their assessment regarding 

whether the delay is consistent with national policy regarding 

creation of a responsive nuclear infrastructure. The Commander, 

U.S. Strategic Command would also be required to submit a report 

to the congressional defense committees on the potential risks 

of the proposed delay in meeting nuclear deterrence requirements 

and national requirements related to creation of a responsive 

nuclear infrastructure. 

Life-cycle cost estimates of certain atomic energy defense 

capital assets (sec. 3113)

The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision 

(sec. 3111) that would amend the Atomic Energy Defense Act to 

require that, under Department of Energy Order 413.3, an 

independent life-cycle cost estimate is conducted prior to 

certain atomic energy defense capital asset projects that have 

achieved critical decision 2 in the acquisition process. The 

provision clarifies that this requirement applies only to atomic 

energy defense capital assets where the total project cost 
339

exceeds $100.0 million and where the purpose of the capital 

asset is to perform a limited-life, single-purpose mission. 

The House bill contained no similar provision.

The agreement includes Senate provision.

We note that this requirement applies only to singlepurpose, limited-life facilities such as the Mixed Oxide Fuel 

Fabrication Facility in South Carolina and the Waste Treatment 

and Immobilization Plant in Washington. It is not intended to 

be applied to multi-mission, long-life facilities such as the 

Uranium Capabilities Replacement Project in Tennessee or the 

replacement facilities for the Chemistry and Metallurgy Research 

facility in New Mexico. We believe this provision will help 

reduce the likelihood of large and unexpected increases in lifecycle cost estimates late in the acquisition process for these 

types of facilities.

Expansion of requirement for independent cost estimates on life 

extension programs and new nuclear facilities (sec. 3114)

The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision 

(sec. 3112) that would require independent cost estimates 

earlier in the acquisition process for life extension programs 

and new nuclear facilities.

The House bill contained no similar provision.

The agreement includes the Senate provision with an 

amendment that would require an independent cost review at the 

completion of phase 6.2. 

We believe that, in the early stages of concept 

definition, there are often many options still under 

consideration and it would not be cost effective to perform a 

full independent cost estimate for each option. A less formal 

independent cost review at phase 6.2 has been determined to give 

sufficient cost guidance to determine which options should 

proceed further in the acquisition process. 

Definition of baseline and threshold for stockpile life 

extension project (sec. 3115)

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 3114) that 

would amend section 4713 of the Atomic Energy Defense Act (50 

U.S.C. 2753) to clarify that the cost and schedule baseline of a 

nuclear stockpile life extension project established pursuant to 

such section shall be the cost and schedule contained in the 

weapon design and cost report that was required prior to the 

project entering into the development engineering phase. This 

section would also lower the threshold for congressional 
340

notification on costs per warhead exceeding the baseline from 

200 percent to 150 percent.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision.

The agreement includes the House provision with an 

amendment that would clarify that the cost and schedule baseline 

for a stockpile life extension project would be the cost and 

schedule described in the first Selected Acquisition Report 

submitted under section 4217(a) of the Atomic Energy Defense Act 

(50 U.S.C. 2537(a)).

Authorized personnel levels of National Nuclear Security 

Administration (sec. 3116)

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 3114) that 

would amend section 3241A of the National Nuclear Security 

Administration Act (50 U.S.C. 2441a) to require that, by October 

1, 2015, the total number of employees within the Office of the 

Administrator may not exceed 1,650.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision.

The agreement includes the House provision with an 

amendment that would limit the number of employees to 1,690.

Cost estimation and program evaluation by National Nuclear 

Security Administration (sec. 3117)

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 3131) that 

would amend section 3221(h) of the National Nuclear Security 

Administration Act (50 U.S.C. 2411) to clarify that the term 

“Administration,” with respect to any authority, duty, or 

responsibility provided by section 3211, does not include the

Office of Naval Reactors.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision.

The agreement includes the House provision with a 

technical amendment.

Cost containment for Uranium Capabilities Replacement Project 

(sec. 3118)

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 3113) that 

would amend section 3123 of the National Defense Authorization 

Act for Fiscal Year 2013 (Public Law 112–239), as amended by 

section 3126 of the National Defense Authorization Act for 

Fiscal Year 2014 (Public Law 113-966), to clarify that the 

Secretary of Energy may adjust the statutory cost cap of $4.2 
341

billion for Phase I of the Uranium Capabilities Replacement 

Project (UCRP) if, by March 15, 2015, the Secretary of Energy 

submits to the congressional defense committees a detailed 

justification for such adjustment. 

This provision would also require the Secretary of Energy 

to certify to the congressional defense committees and the 

Secretary of Defense by March 1 of each year through 2025, that 

Phase I of the UCRP will meet the cost cap of $4.2 billion (as 

adjusted) and that the UCRP will enable uranium operations in 

building 9212 of the Y–12 National Security Complex to cease by 

2025, while uranium operations begin in a new facility 

constructed under the UCRP by 2025. 

The provision would further require the Secretary of 

Energy and the Secretary of the Navy to jointly submit a report 

to the congressional defense committees by March 1, 2015, on 

implementation of section 3123(e) of National Defense 

Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2013 (Public Law 112–239), as 

amended.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained a similar 

provision (sec. 3113) that would require, before beginning 

construction of the replacement for building 9212, the 

technologies (or their substitutes) that are to go into the 

replacement building have a technology readiness level of at 

least seven. Technologies (or their substitutes) that were in 

building 9212 that do not go into the replacement building are 

also to have a technology readiness level of at least seven. 

The agreement includes the House provision with an 

amendment that combines the two provisions while striking the 

sense of Congress in the House provision. 

Production of nuclear warhead for long-range standoff weapon 

(sec. 3119)

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 3116) that 

would require the Secretary of Energy to deliver a first 

production unit for a nuclear warhead for the long-range 

standoff weapon not later than September 30, 2025. This 

provision would also require the Secretary of Energy and the 

Secretary of Defense to jointly develop a plan to carry out this 

mandate and require the Secretaries to submit this plan to the 

congressional defense committees within 180 days after the date 

of enactment of this Act.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision.

The agreement includes the House provision with an 

amendment that would provide the Commander, U.S. Strategic 

Command, the ability to defer the first production unit date by 
342

up to 1 year if the Commander certifies to the Chairman of the 

Nuclear Weapons Council and the congressional defense committees 

that the delay is in the interest of national security and does 

not negatively affect the ability of the Commander to meet 

nuclear assurance and deterrence requirements.

Disposition of weapons-usable plutonium (sec. 3120)

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 3117) that 

would require the Secretary of Energy to specifically carry out 

construction and program support activities with fiscal year 

2015 funds authorized for the Mixed Oxide Fuel Fabrication 

Facility (MFFF). For construction and program support 

activities. Program support activities are defined as those 

activities in support of the design, long-lead equipment, 

procurement, and site preparation for the MFFF.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision.

The agreement includes the House provision with an 

amendment that would clarify project support activities.

Limitation on availability of funds for Office of the

Administrator for Nuclear Security (sec. 3121)

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 3118) that 

would limit the availability of funds authorized to be 

appropriated by this Act or otherwise made available for fiscal 

year 2015 for the National Nuclear Security Administration's 

(NNSA) Office of the Administrator to not more than 75 percent 

of the above until several statutorily required reports are 

submitted to certain congressional committees in 2015. These 

include:

(1) The report on stockpile assessments required 

under section 4205(f)(2) of the Atomic Energy Defense Act 

(50 U.S.C. 2525(f)(2));

(2) The Secretary of Energy's portion of the report 

required by section 1043 of the National Defense 

Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2012 (Public Law 112–81);

(3) The annual assessment required under section 

3122 of Public Law 112–81; and

(4) The detailed report on the stockpile 

stewardship, management, and infrastructure plan required 

by section 4203(b) of the Atomic Energy Defense Act (50 

U.S.C. 2523(b)).

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision.
343

The agreement includes the House provision with a 

clarifying amendment.

Limitation on availability of funds for nonproliferation 

activities between the United States and the Russian Federation 

(sec. 3122)

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 3120) that 

would prohibit the use of fiscal year 2015 funds for the 

National Nuclear Security Administration (NNSA) for any contact, 

cooperation, or transfer of technology between the United States 

and the Russian Federation until the Secretary of Energy, in 

consultation with the Secretary of State and Secretary of 

Defense, certifies to the appropriate congressional committees 

that the Russian Federation is respecting the sovereignty of 

Ukrainian territory, is no longer acting inconsistently with the 

Intermediate-range Nuclear Forces Treaty, and is in compliance 

with the Treaty on Conventional Armed Forces in Europe.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision.

The agreement includes the House provision with an 

amendment that unless specifically authorized by Congress, 

International Material Protection, Control and Accounting 

activities in the Russian Federation, except those associated 

with the Plutonium Management and Disposition agreement, shall 

be completed no later than fiscal year 2018. In addition, the 

amendment prohibits any fiscal year 2015 funding for the 

transfer of Multiple Integrated Laser Engagement System 

technology from the United States to the Russian Federation.

We note that the Material Protection, Control and 

Accounting activities in the Russian Federation has secured 

nuclear material facilities in Russia since the breakup of the 

Soviet Union. Assisting Russia in securing nuclear materials 

has been in the national security interests of the United 

States. However, given that that the majority of work has been 

completed at facilities over the past 20 years, we believe that 

physical work on this program should be completed no later than 

fiscal year 2018. We understand that this is also the target 

timeframe for completion set by the NNSA. This does not rule 

out continued exchange of best practices in physical security in 

such areas as insider threat, developments in security 

technology, as well as other appropriate compensatory measures 

or other areas of mutual benefit in securing nuclear material. 

If areas of concern emerge that require additional physical 

security work in Russia after fiscal year 2018, and that work is 

of benefit to the security interests of the United States, it 

can be part of an annual budget request which can be reviewed by 
344

the congressional defense committees. We understand that 

Rosatom is evaluating the ongoing work with the NNSA and expects 

to be promptly informed of any change in status of the 

relationship between Rosatom and the NNSA.

We believe that the NNSA should not be providing Multiple 

Integrated Laser Engagement System (MILES) technology. We 

understand MILES technology is a tactical force-on-force trainer 

employed by the U.S. military and believe it is inappropriate to 

be providing military-grade technology to the Russian Federation 

at a time when Russia has exercised aggressive actions towards 

U.S. partners and allies.

Identification of amounts required for uranium technology 

sustainment in budget materials for fiscal year 2016 (sec. 3123)

The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision 

(sec. 3116) that would require the Administrator for Nuclear 

Security to include in the fiscal year 2016 budget request a 

uranium sustainment budget line for technology development past 

technology readiness level five so that plant-directed research 

and development (R&D) at facilities such as Y–12 can concentrate 

on projects involving technology readiness level four and below.

nuclear security enterprise to support the plutonium strategy of 

the National Nuclear Security Administration.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision.

The agreement includes the House provision with an 

amendment that would require the Administrator to include, as 

part of the Administrator’s planned analysis of alternatives for 

Critical Decision 1 of the plutonium strategy, an analysis of 

using or modifying existing facilities of the nuclear security 

enterprise. The Administrator would be required to submit the 

analysis to the congressional defense committees within 30 days 

of completing it. The amendment would also add a sense of 

Congress regarding the commitments made by the Chairman of the 

Nuclear Weapons Council on July 25, 2014, regarding a strategy 

to carry out a modular building strategy for plutonium 

capabilities. 

Plan for verification and monitoring of proliferation of nuclear 

weapons and fissile material (sec. 3133)

would require the President, in consultation with the 

Secretaries of State, Homeland Security and Energy as well as 

the Director of National Intelligence, to develop an interagency 

plan for verification and monitoring related to the potential 

proliferation of nuclear weapons, components of such weapons and 

fissile material. Such plan would be due to the appropriate 

congressional committees no later than September 1, 2015.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision.

The agreement includes this provision. 

Comments of Administrator for Nuclear Security and Chairman of 

Nuclear Weapons Council on final report of Congressional 

Advisory Panel on the Governance of the Nuclear Security 

Enterprise (sec. 3134)

findings of the Congressional Advisory Panel on the Governance 

of the Nuclear Security Enterprise, created in section 3166 of 
346

the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2013 

(P.L. 112–239), which shall be submitted to the congressional 

defense committees.

The House bill contained no similar provision.

The agreement includes the Senate provision with an 

amendment that would also require separate comments on the 

advisory panel’s report from the Chairman of the Nuclear Weapons 

Council. The amendment would also clarify that comments are 

required only on the advisory panel’s final report and that such 

comments are due 90 days after enactment of this Act. 

SUBTITLE D-OTHER MATTERS

Establishment of Advisory Board on Toxic Substances and Worker 

Health; Extension of Authority of Office of Ombudsman for Energy 

Employees Occupational Illness Compensation Program (sec. 3141)

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1090D) that 

would state a sense of Congress that the President should 

establish a federal advisory board for part E of the Energy 

Employees Occupational Illness Compensation Program.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained a similar 

provision (sec. 3114) that would create an advisory board 

reporting to the Energy Employees Occupational Illness Program 

on toxic substances and worker health.

The agreement includes the Senate provision with an 

amendment that would ensure the advisory board functions only in 

an advisory capacity pursuant to the Federal Advisory Committee 

Act (5 U.S.C. 2(b)(6)). The amendment also includes 

modifications to ensure the advisory board's members, staff, and 

contractors do not have a conflict of interest and permits the 

Secretary of Labor to employ outside contractors to support the 

work of the board. The amendment would also clarify that the 

advisory board provides advice to the Secretary of Labor instead 

of the President and that the appointments to the board should 

reflect a balance of perspectives from the scientific, medical, 

and claimant communities. 

We note that “claimant communities” should be interpreted 

to include a mixture of the legal, worker, worker families, 

worker advocate, and other relevant communities as the President 

determines appropriate. The amendment would also extend the 

authority for the Office of the Ombudsman in the Department of 

Labor to 2019.

We further note that the Secretary shall ensure the Board 

is provided the necessary support for the Board to perform its 

functions, including program review and audit functions as 

appropriate, and that the Department of Labor will consult the 
347

Board regarding the need for and selection of outside technical 

support, experts and contractors, consistent with the process 

and support used by the Advisory Board on Radiation and Worker 

found in section 7384o of title 42, United States Code, and 

consistent with federal acquisition laws. 

Technical corrections to Atomic Energy Defense Act (sec. 3142)

provision. 

The agreement includes the House provision with an amendment 

making additional technical corrections.

2410) and section 3236 (50 U.S.C. 2426) of the National Nuclear 

Security Administration Act.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar 

provision. 

The agreement includes this provision.

Technology Commercialization Fund (sec. 3144)

A proposed amendment to the Senate committee-reported bill 

(amendment number 3510) contained a provision that would amend 

section 1001(e) of the Energy Policy Act of 2005 (42 U.S.C. 

16391(e)) by inserting after “fiscal year” the phrase “based on 

future planned activities and the amount of the appropriations 

for the fiscal year.”

The House bill contained no similar provision.

The agreement includes this provision.

LEGISLATIVE PROVISIONS NOT ADOPTED

Additional limitation on availability of funds for Office of the 

Administrator for Nuclear Security

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 3119) that 

would limit the availability of funds authorized to be 

appropriated by this Act or otherwise made available for fiscal 

year 2015 for the National Nuclear Security Administration’s 
348

(NNSA) Office of the Administrator to not more than 90 percent 

until the date on which the Administrator for Nuclear Security 

submits to the congressional defense committees a report on the 

efficiencies proposed by the 2012 Joint Department of 

Energy/Department of Defense Study on Potential NNSA Management 

and Work Force Prioritization Efficiencies. 

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar

provision.

The agreement does not include this provision. 

We believe NNSA and the Department of Energy must 

undertake robust and continuing efforts to find cost savings and 

cost avoidances that enable NNSA to work more efficiently and 

effectively. In the Conference Report accompanying the National 

Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2013 (House Report 

112-706), we expressed concern that the rise to unprecedented 

levels of the cost of major stockpile and infrastructure 

modernization projects leading to slippages in project schedules 

could undermine the credibility of the nation’s nuclear 

deterrent. We also noted that administrative costs and 

bureaucracy within the NNSA and the nuclear security enterprise 

must be reduced and the enterprise must be refocused on 

accomplishing its mission effectively and efficiently, as well 

as safely and securely. We remain concerned about these 

longstanding challenges. 

In the context of these concerns, we appreciate the letter 

of November 4, 2014 from the NNSA Administrator to the House 

Armed Services Committee, committing to continue efforts to make 

the nuclear enterprise more efficient. We believe this process 

to seek efficiencies and productivity gains, proposed by the 

Administrator in this letter, to be a small but hopeful step in 

the right direction. We therefore endorse this proposal and 

direct the Administrator for Nuclear Security, consistent with 

his commitment, to provide a report to the congressional defense 

committees by February 28, 2015, on the actions, initiatives, 

and pilot programs the Administrator will undertake in the 

remainder of fiscal year 2015 to realize efficiencies within 

NNSA and the nuclear security enterprise. This report should 

include specific opportunities identified by the NNSA 

laboratories and plants and measures to eliminate or streamline 

burdensome and ineffective transactional oversight. 

We further direct the Administrator to submit a report to 

the congressional defense committees by November 15, 2015, 

containing the Administrator’s assessment of whether the 

actions, initiatives, and pilot programs previously identified 

by the Administrator were successful.

provision.

The agreement does not include this provision.
