INTELLIGENCE, SURVEILLANCE, AND RECONNAISSANCE 

CAPABILITIES. 

(a) FINDINGS.—Congress finds the following: 

(1) The Navy terminated the EP–X program to acquire 

a new land-based airborne signals intelligence capability 

because of escalating costs and funds budgeted for the program 

were re-allocated to other priorities. 

(2) The Navy took this action without planning and budgeting for alternative means to meet operational requirements 

for tactical-level and theater-level signals intelligence capabilities to support the combatant commands and national intelligence consumers. 

(3) The principal Navy airborne signals intelligence capability today is the EP–3E Airborne Reconnaissance Integrated 

Electronic System II (ARIES II)—the aircraft and associated 

electronic equipment of this system are aging and will require 
H. R. 6523—17 

replacement or substantial ongoing upgrades to continue to 

meet requirements. 

(4) The Special Projects Aircraft (SPA) platform of the 

Navy is the second critical element in the airborne signals 

intelligence capability of the Navy and provides the Navy its 

most advanced, comprehensive multi-intelligence and quickreaction capability available. 

(b) REQUIREMENT TO MAINTAIN CAPABILITIES.— 

(1) PROHIBITION ON RETIREMENT OF PLATFORMS.—The Secretary of the Navy may not retire (or to prepare to retire) 

the EP–3E Airborne Reconnaissance Integrated Electronic 

System II or Special Projects Aircraft platform. 

(2) MAINTENANCE OF PLATFORMS.—The Secretary of the 

Navy shall continue to maintain, sustain, and upgrade the 

EP–3E Airborne Reconnaissance Integrated Electronic System 

II and Special Projects Aircraft platforms in order to provide 

capabilities necessary to operate effectively against rapidly 

evolving threats and to meet combatant commander operational 

intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance requirements. 

(3) CERTIFICATION.—Not later than February 1, 2011, and 

annually thereafter, the Under Secretary of Defense for Intelligence and the Vice Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff 

shall jointly certify to Congress the following: 

(A) The Secretary of the Navy is maintaining and 

sustaining the EP–3E Airborne Reconnaissance Integrated 

Electronic System II and Special Projects Aircraft platform 

in a manner that meets the intelligence, surveillance, and 

reconnaissance requirements of the commanders of the 

combatant commands. 

(B) Any plan for the retirement or replacement of 

the EP–3E Airborne Reconnaissance Integrated Electronic 

System II or Special Projects Aircraft platform will provide, 

in the aggregate, an equivalent or superior capability and 

capacity to the platform concerned. 

(4) TERMINATION.—The requirements of this subsection 

with respect to the EP–3E Airborne Reconnaissance Integrated 

Electronic System II or the Special Projects Aircraft platform 

shall expire on the commencement of the fielding by the Navy 

of a platform or mix of platforms and sensors that are, in 

the aggregate, equivalent or superior to the EP–3E Airborne 

Reconnaissance Integrated Electronic System II (spiral 3) or 

the Special Projects Aircraft (P909) platform. 

(c) RESTRICTION ON TRANSFER OF SABER FOCUS PROGRAM ISR 

CAPABILITIES.— 

(1) RESTRICTION.—The Secretary of the Navy may not 

transfer the Saber Focus unmanned aerial system, associated 

equipment, or processing, exploitation, and dissemination 

capabilities of the Saber Focus program to the Secretary of 

the Air Force until 30 days after the Secretary of the Air 

Force certifies to the congressional defense committees that 

after such a transfer, the Secretary of the Air Force will provide 

intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (hereinafter in 

this section referred to as ‘‘ISR’’) capabilities at the same or 

greater capability and capacity level as the capability or 

capacity level at which the Saber Focus program provides such 

capabilities to the area of operations concerned as of the date 

of the enactment of this Act. 
H. R. 6523—18 

(2) CONTINUED NAVY PROVISION OF CAPABILITIES.—The Secretary of the Navy shall continue to provide Saber Focus ISR 

program capabilities at the same or greater capability and 

capacity level as the capability or capacity level at which the 

Saber Focus program provides such capabilities as of the date 

of the enactment of this Act to the area of operations concerned 

until— 

(A) the certification referred to in paragraph (1) is 

provided to the congressional defense committees; or 

(B) 30 days after the Secretary of Defense certifies 

to the congressional defense committees that the ISR 

capabilities of the Saber Focus program are no longer 

required to mitigate the ISR requirements of the combatant 

commander in the area of operations concerned. 

SEC. 113. REPORT ON NAVAL FORCE STRUCTURE AND MISSILE 

DEFENSE. 

(a) REPORT.—Not later than March 31, 2011, the Secretary 

of Defense, in coordination with the Secretary of the Navy and 

the Chief of Naval Operations, shall submit to the congressional 

defense committees a report on the force structure requirements 

of the major combatant surface vessels with respect to ballistic 

missile defense. 

(b) MATTERS INCLUDED.—The report shall include the following: 

(1) An analysis of whether the requirement for sea-based 

missile defense can be accommodated by upgrading Aegis ships 

that exist as of the date of the report or by procuring additional 

combatant surface vessels. 

(2) A discussion of whether such sea-based missile defense 

will require increasing the overall number of combatant surface 

vessels beyond the requirement of 88 cruisers and destroyers 

in the 313-ship fleet plan of the Navy. 

(3) A discussion of the process for determining the number 

of Aegis ships needed by each commander of the combatant 

commands to fulfill ballistic missile defense requirements, 

including (in consultation with the Chairman of the Joints 

Chiefs of Staff) the number of such ships needed to support 

the phased, adaptive approach to ballistic missile defense in 

Europe. 

(4) A discussion of the impact of Aegis Ashore missile 

defense deployments, as well as deployment of other elements 

of the ballistic missile defense system, on Aegis ballistic missile 

defense ship force structure requirements. 

(5) A discussion of the potential effect of ballistic missile 

defense operations on the ability of the Navy to meet surface 

fleet demands in each geographic area and for each mission 

set. 

(6) An evaluation of how the Aegis ballistic missile defense 

program can succeed as part of a balanced fleet of adequate 

size and strength to meet the security needs of the United 

States. 

(7) A description of both the shortfalls and the benefits 

of expected technological advancements in the sea-based missile 

defense program. 

(8) A description of the anticipated plan for deployment 

of Aegis ballistic missile defense ships within the context of

Subtitle C—Missile Defense Programs 

SEC. 221. SENSE OF CONGRESS ON BALLISTIC MISSILE DEFENSE. 

(a) SENSE OF CONGRESS.—It is the sense of Congress— 

(1) that the phased, adaptive approach to missile defense 

in Europe is an appropriate response to the existing ballistic 

missile threat from Iran to the European territory of North 

Atlantic Treaty Organization countries, and to potential future 

ballistic missile capabilities of Iran; 

(2) that the phased, adaptive approach to missile defense 

in Europe is not intended to, and will not, provide a missile 

defense capability relative to the ballistic missile deterrent 

forces of the Russian Federation, or diminish strategic stability 

with the Russian Federation; 

(3) to support the efforts of the United States Government 

and the North Atlantic Treaty Organization to pursue cooperation with the Russian Federation on ballistic missile defense 

relative to Iranian missile threats; 

(4) that the ground-based midcourse defense system 

deployed in Alaska and California currently provides adequate 

defensive capability for the United States against currently 

anticipated future long-range ballistic missile threats from Iran, 

and this capability will be enhanced as the system is improved, 

including by the planned deployment of an AN/TPY–2 radar 

in southern Europe in 2011; 

(5) that the ground-based midcourse defense system should 

be maintained, enhanced, and adequately tested to ensure its 

operational capability through its service life; 

(6) that the United States should, as stated in its unilateral 

statement accompanying the New START Treaty, ‘‘continue 

improving and deploying its missile defense systems in order 

to defend itself against limited attack and as part of our collaborative approach to strengthening stability in key regions’’; 

(7) that, as part of this effort, the Department of Defense 

should pursue the development, testing, and deployment of 

operationally effective versions of all variants of the standard 

missile–3 for all four phases of the phased, adaptive approach 

to missile defense in Europe; 

(8) that the standard missile–3 block IIB interceptor missile 

planned for deployment in phase 4 of the phased, adaptive 

approach should be capable of addressing the potential future 

threat of intermediate-range and long-range ballistic missiles 
H. R. 6523—32 

from Iran, including intercontinental ballistic missiles that 

could be capable of reaching the United States; 

(9) that there are no constraints contained in the New 

START Treaty on the development or deployment by the United 

States of effective missile defenses, including all phases of 

the phased, adaptive approach to missile defense in Europe 

and further enhancements to the ground-based midcourse 

defense system, as well as future missile defenses; and 

(10) that the Department of Defense should continue the 

development, testing, and assessment of the two-stage groundbased interceptor in such a manner as to provide a hedge 

against potential technical challenges with the development 

of the standard missile–3 block IIB interceptor missile as a 

means of augmenting the defense of Europe and of the homeland against a limited ballistic missile attack from nations 

such as North Korea or Iran. 

(b) NEW START TREATY DEFINED.—In this section, the term

CAROLINA. 

(a) FINDINGS.—Congress makes the following findings: 

(1) The Department of the Navy and the Agency for Toxic 

Substances and Disease Registry (hereinafter in this section 

referred to as ‘‘ATSDR’’) have been working together for almost 

two decades to identify the possible effects of exposure to 

contaminated drinking water at Camp Lejeune, North Carolina. 

(2) Multiple studies have been conducted, and are being 

conducted, which require significant amounts of data and 

historical documentation, requiring the Department of the Navy 

and ATSDR to have close collaboration and open access to 

information. 

(3) In June 2010, the Department of the Navy and ATSDR 

established the Camp Lejeune Data Mining Technical 

Workgroup to identify and inventory information and data relevant to the ongoing scientific research. 

(b) REQUIREMENTS.— 

(1) ATSDR ACCESS TO DATA.—By not later than 90 days 

after the date of the enactment of this Act, the Secretary 

of the Navy shall ensure that the inventory created by the 

Camp Lejeune Data Mining Technical Workgroup is accurate 

and complete and that ATSDR has full access to all of the 

documents and data listed therein as needed. 

(2) AVAILABILITY OF NEW AND NEWLY DISCOVERED DOCUMENTS.—If after the date of enactment of this Act the Secretary 

of the Navy generates any new document, record, or electronic 

data, or comes into possession of any existing document, record, 

or electronic data not previously provided in the Camp Lejeune 

Data Mining Technical Workgroup, the Secretary of the Navy 

shall make such information immediately available to ATSDR 

with an electronic inventory incorporating the newly located 

or generated document, record, or electronic data.

after the date on which the Secretary of the Navy notifies 

the Committees on Armed Services of the Senate and House 

of Representatives of the intention of the Secretary to adjudicate the claim. 

SEC. 314. COMPTROLLER GENERAL ASSESSMENT ON MILITARY 

ENVIRONMENTAL EXPOSURES. 

(a) FINDINGS.—Congress makes the following findings: 

(1) There have been various reports of the exposure of 

current and former members of the Armed Forces, their dependents, and civilian employees to environmental hazards while 

living and working on military installations. 

(2) There is the need to better understand existing Department of Defense policies and procedures for addressing possible 

environmental exposures at military installations, determining 

any correlation between such an exposure and a subsequent 

health condition, and handling claims and potential compensation. 
H. R. 6523—46 

(3) While many of these possible exposures have been 

studied and evaluated, the extent to which those exposures 

caused or contributed to the short- and long-term health conditions of current and former members of the Armed Forces, 

their dependents, and civilian employees remains largely 

unknown. 

(4) As for these possible exposures and the link between 

the exposure and subsequent health conditions, there may be 

better ways for the Federal Government to evaluate, address 

and, as warranted, provide health benefits or possible compensation as a remedy to these potential exposures. 

(b) COMPTROLLER GENERAL ASSESSMENT REQUIRED.—The 

Comptroller General of the United States shall carry out an assessment of possible exposures to environmental hazards on military 

installations that includes the following: 

(1) An identification of the policies and processes by which 

the Department of Defense and the military departments 

respond to environmental hazards on military installations and 

possible exposures and determine if there is a standard framework. 

(2) An identification of the existing processes available 

to current and former members of the Armed Forces, their 

dependents, and civilian employees to seek compensation and 

health benefits for exposures to environmental hazards on military installations. 

(3) A comparison of the processes identified under paragraph (2) with other potential options or methods for providing 

health benefits or compensation to individuals for injuries that 

may have resulted from environmental hazards on military 

installations. 

(4) An examination of what is known about the advantages 

and disadvantages of other potential options or methods as 

well as any shortfalls in the current processes. 

(5) Recommendations for any administrative or legislative 

action that the Comptroller General deems appropriate in the 

context of the assessment. 

(c) REPORT.—Not later than January 1, 2012, the Comptroller 

General shall submit to the Chairmen and Ranking Members of 

the Committees on Armed Services of the Senate and the House 

of Representatives a report on the findings and recommendations, 

as appropriate, of the Comptroller General with respect to the 

assessment conducted under subsection (b). 

(d) COORDINATION.—In carrying out subsection (b), the Comptroller General shall receive comments from the Secretary of 

Defense and others, as appropriate. 

(e) CONSTRUCTION.—Nothing in this section shall be interpreted 

to impede, encroach, or delay— 

(1) any studies, reviews, or assessments of any actual or 

potential environmental exposures at any military installation, 

including the studies included in the Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry’s Annual Plan of Work regarding 

the water contamination at Camp Lejeune, North Carolina; 

(2) the Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry’s 

statutory obligations, including its obligations under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and

1929, in Staten Island, New York. 

(2) After attending Fordham University for a year, he 

entered the Maryknoll Missionary Seminary in upstate New 

York in 1949, and was ordained a Catholic priest in June 

1957. 

(3) Father Capodanno’s first assignment as a missionary 

was working with aboriginal Taiwanese people in the mountains of Taiwan where he served in a parish and later in 

a school. After several years, Father Capodanno returned to 

the United States for leave and then was assigned to a 

Maryknoll school in Hong Kong. 

(4) Father Vincent Capodanno volunteered as a Navy Chaplain and was commissioned a Lieutenant in the Chaplain Corps 

of the United States Naval Reserve in December 28, 1965. 

(5) Father Vincent Capodanno selflessly extended his combat tour in Vietnam on the condition he was allowed to remain 

with the infantry. 

(6) On September 4, 1967, during a fierce battle in the 

Thang Binh District of the Que-Son Valley in Vietnam, Father 

Capodanno went among the wounded and dying, giving last 

rites and caring for the injured. He was killed that day while 

taking care of his Marines. 

(7) On January 7, 1969, Father Vincent Capodanno was 

awarded the Medal of Honor posthumously for comforting the 
H. R. 6523—213 

wounded and dying during the Vietnam conflict. For his dedicated service, Father Capodanno was also awarded the Bronze 

Star, the Purple Heart, the Presidential Unit Citation, the 

National Defense Service Medal, the Vietnam Service Medal, 

the Vietnam Gallantry Cross with Palm, and the Vietnam 

Campaign Medal. 

(8) In his memory, the U.S.S. Capodanno was commissioned

SEC. 2855. SENSE OF CONGRESS ON PROPOSED EXTENSION OF THE 

ALASKA RAILROAD CORRIDOR ACROSS FEDERAL LAND 

IN ALASKA. 

(a) FINDING.—Congress finds that the Alaska Railroad proposes 

the extension of its railroad corridor over approximately 950 acres 

of land located south and east of North Pole, Alaska, including 

lands located near or adjacent to the Chena River spillway, Eielson 

Air Force Base, Tanana Flats Training Area (Fort Wainwright), 

Donnelly Training Area (Fort Wainwright), and Fort Greely. 

(b) SENSE OF CONGRESS.—It is the sense of Congress that 

the Department of the Army and the Department of the Air Force 

should explore means of accommodating the railroad corridor expansion referred to in subsection (a) using existing authorities that 

will not adversely impact military missions, operations, and 

training. 

SEC. 2856. SENSE OF CONGRESS ON IMPROVING MILITARY HOUSING 

FOR MEMBERS OF THE AIR FORCE. 

(a) FINDING.—Congress makes the following findings: 

(1) In the mid-1990s, the Department of Defense became 

concerned that inadequate and poor quality housing for members of the Armed Forces was adversely affecting the quality 

of life for members and their families and adversely affecting 

military readiness by contributing to decisions by members 

to leave the Armed Forces. 

(2) At that time, the Department of Defense designated 

about 180,000 houses, or nearly two-thirds of its domestic 

family housing inventory, as inadequate and needing repair 

or complete replacement. 

(3) The Department of Defense believed that it would need about $20,000,000,000 in appropriated funds and would take 

up to 40 years to eliminate poor quality military housing 

through new construction or renovation using its traditional 

military construction approach. 

(4) In 1996, Congress enacted the Military Housing 

Privatization Initiative to provide the Department of Defense 

with a variety of authorities to obtain private sector financing 
H. R. 6523—343 

and management for the repair, renovation, construction, and 

management of military family housing. 

(5) The Air Force has used the Military Housing Privatization Initiative to award 27 projects at 44 military bases to 

improve over 37,000 homes. 

(6) The Air Force has received $7,100,000,000 in total 

development investment from the private sector for new 

housing with a taxpayer contribution of approximately 

$425,000,000, representing a 15 to 1 leveraging of taxpayer 

dollars. 

(7) The Air Force, like the other military services, has 

been able to leverage varying conditions of housing at military 

bases into fiscally viable projects by packaging housing inventories at multiple bases into a single transaction. 

(8) Congress has approved transactions involving the packaging of multiple bases as a critical tool to maximize the 

efficient use of taxpayer funds. 

(9) Congress supports the goal of the Air Force to complete 

transactions for the repair, renovation, construction, and 

management of 100 percent of their military family housing 

inventory in the United States by December 31, 2012. 

(10) The Air Force currently has 6 project solicitations 

prepared for open competition at 22 Air Force installations 

to improve over 15,000 homes. 

(b) SENSE OF CONGRESS.—It is the sense of Congress that 

the Secretary of the Air Force should use existing authority to 

carry out solicitations for the 6 military housing projects involving 

the packaging of 22 bases consistent with the goal of improving 

15,000 homes for Air Force personnel and their families by 

December 31, 2012. 

SEC. 2857. SENSE OF CONGRESS REGARDING RECREATIONAL HUNTING 

AND FISHING ON MILITARY INSTALLATIONS. 

It is the sense of the Congress that— 

(1) military installations that permit public access for recreational hunting and fishing should continue to permit such 

hunting and fishing where appropriate; 

(2) permitting the public to access military installations 

for recreational hunting and fishing benefits local communities 

by conserving and promoting the outdoors and establishing 

positive relations between the civilian and defense sectors; 

(3) any military installations that make recreational 

hunting and fishing permits available for purchase should provide a discounted rate for active and retired members of the 

Armed Forces and veterans with disabilities; and 

(4) the Department of Defense, all of the service branches, 

and military installations that permit public access for recreational hunting and fishing should promote access to such 

installations by making the appropriate accommodations for 

members of the Armed Forces and veterans with disabilities.
