Programs 
SEC. 221. SENSE OF CONGRESS ON BALLISTIC MISSILE DE-
FENSE. 
(a) SENSE OF CONGRESS.—It is the sense of Con-
gress—
(1) that the phased, adaptive approach to mis-
sile defense in Europe is an appropriate response to 
the existing ballistic missile threat from Iran to the 
European territory of North Atlantic Treaty Organi-
zation countries, and to potential future ballistic 
missile capabilities of Iran; 
(2) that the phased, adaptive approach to mis-
sile 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 Organi-
zation to pursue cooperation with the Russian Fed-
eration 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 ca-
pability 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 ade-
quately 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 collabo-
rative approach to strengthening stability in key re-
gions’’; 
(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 inter-
ceptor missile planned for deployment in phase 4 of 
the phased, adaptive approach should be capable of 
addressing the potential future threat of inter-
mediate-range and long-range ballistic missiles 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 de-
ployment by the United States of effective missile 
defenses, including all phases of the phased, adapt-
ive approach to missile defense in Europe and fur-
ther 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 ground-based interceptor in such a 
manner as to provide a hedge against potential tech-
nical challenges with the development of the stand-
ard missile–3 block IIB interceptor missile as a 
means of augmenting the defense of Europe and of 
the homeland against a limited ballistic missile at-
tack from nations such as North Korea or Iran. 
(b) NEW START TREATY DEFINED.—In this sec-
tion, the term ‘‘New START Treaty’’ means the Treaty 
between the United States of America and the Russian 
Federation on Measures for the Further Reduction and

Subtitle E—Other Matters 
SEC. 241. SENSE OF CONGRESS AFFIRMING THE IMPOR-
TANCE OF DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE PAR-
TICIPATION IN DEVELOPMENT OF NEXT GEN-
ERATION SEMICONDUCTOR TECHNOLOGIES. 
(a) FINDINGS.—Congress finds the following:
(1) The next generation of weapons systems, 
battlefield sensors, and intelligence platforms will 
need to be lighter, more agile, consume less power, 
and have greater computational power, which can be 
achieved by decreasing the feature size of integrated 
circuits to the nanometer scale. 
(2) There is a growing concern in the Depart-
ment of Defense and the United States intelligence 
community over the offshore shift in development 
and production of high capacity semiconductors. 
Greater reliance on providers of semiconductors in 
the United States high technology industry would 
help mitigate the security risks of such an offshore 
shift. 
(3) The development of new manufacturing 
technologies is recognized in the semiconductor in-
dustry as critical to the development of the next gen-
eration of integrated circuits. 
(b) SENSE OF CONGRESS.—It is the sense of Con-
gress that— 
(1) the United States should pursue research 
and development capabilities to take the lead in de-
veloping and producing the next generation of inte-
grated circuits; and
(2) the Department of Defense should continue 
to work with industry and academia in pursuing the 
research and development of advanced manufac-
turing techniques in support of the development of 
the next generation of integrated circuits needed for 
the requirements and specialized applications of the 
Department of Defense.

or more partnerships between one military installation and 
one national laboratory, for the purpose of evaluating and 
validating secure, salable microgrid components and sys-
tems for deployment. 
(b) SELECTION OF MILITARY INSTALLATION AND 
NATIONAL LABORATORY.—If the Secretary of Defense 
carries out a pilot program under this section, the Sec-
retary of Defense and the Secretary of Energy shall jointly 
select a military installation and a national laboratory for 
the purpose of carrying out the pilot program. In making 
such selections, the Secretaries shall consider each of the 
following:

cy for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry (here-
inafter in this section referred to as ‘‘ATSDR’’) 
have been working together for almost two decades 
to identify the possible effects of exposure to con-
taminated 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, re-
quiring the Department of the Navy and ATSDR to 
have close collaboration and open access to informa-
tion. 
(3) In June 2010, the Department of the Navy 
and ATSDR established the Camp Lejeune Data
100 
Mining Technical Workgroup to identify and inven-
tory information and data relevant to the ongoing 
scientific research.

SEC. 314. COMPTROLLER GENERAL ASSESSMENT ON MILI-
TARY ENVIRONMENTAL EXPOSURES. 
(a) FINDINGS.—Congress makes the following find-
ings: 
(1) There have been various reports of the ex-
posure 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 ex-
isting Department of Defense policies and proce-
dures for addressing possible environmental expo-
sures at military installations, determining any cor-
relation between such an exposure and a subsequent 
health condition, and handling claims and potential 
compensation. 
(3) While many of these possible exposures have 
been studied and evaluated, the extent to which
102 
those exposures caused or contributed to the short- 
and long-term health conditions of current and 
former members of the Armed Forces, their depend-
ents, and civilian employees remains largely un-
known. 
(4) As for these possible exposures and the link 
between the exposure and subsequent health condi-
tions, there may be better ways for the Federal Gov-
ernment to evaluate, address and, as warranted, pro-
vide health benefits or possible compensation as a 
remedy to these potential exposures. 
(b) COMPTROLLER
GENERAL
ASSESSMENT
RE-
QUIRED.—The Comptroller General of the United States 
shall carry out an assessment of possible exposures to en-
vironmental hazards on military installations that includes 
the following: 
(1) An identification of the policies and proc-
esses by which the Department of Defense and the 
military departments respond to environmental haz-
ards 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 em-
ployees to seek compensation and health benefits for
103 
exposures to environmental hazards on military in-
stallations. 
(3) A comparison of the processes identified 
under paragraph (2) with other potential options or 
methods for providing health benefits or compensa-
tion to individuals for injuries that may have re-
sulted from environmental hazards on military in-
stallations. 
(4) An examination of what is known about the 
advantages and disadvantages of other potential op-
tions or methods as well as any shortfalls in the cur-
rent 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).

(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 Dis-
ease Registry’s statutory obligations, including its 
obligations under the Comprehensive Environmental 
Response, Compensation, and Liability Act of 1980 
(42 U.S.C. 9601 et seq.) regarding Superfund sites; 
or 
(3) the remediation of any environmental con-
tamination or hazard at any military installation.
