2864. 
DESIGNATION 
OF 
DISTINGUISHED 
FLYING 
CROSS NATIONAL MEMORIAL IN RIVERSIDE, 
CALIFORNIA. 
(a) FINDINGS.—Congress finds the following: 
(1) The most reliable statistics regarding the 
number of members of the Armed Forces who have 
been awarded the Distinguished Flying Cross indi-
cate that 126,318 members of the Armed Forces re-
ceived the medal during World War II, approxi-
mately 21,000 members received the medal during 
the Korean conflict, and 21,647 members received 
the medal during the Vietnam War. Since the end
870 
of the Vietnam War, more than 203 Armed Forces 
members have received the medal in times of con-
flict. 
(2) The National Personnel Records Center in 
St. Louis, Missouri, burned down in 1973, and thus 
many more recipients of the Distinguished Flying 
Cross may be undocumented. Currently, the Depart-
ment of Defense continues to locate and identify 
members of the Armed Forces who have received the 
medal and are undocumented. 
(3) The United States currently lacks a na-
tional memorial dedicated to the bravery and sac-
rifice of those members of the Armed Forces who 
have distinguished themselves by heroic deeds per-
formed in aerial flight.

SEC. 3113. COST CONTAINMENT FOR URANIUM CAPABILI-
TIES REPLACEMENT PROJECT. 
(a) SENSE OF CONGRESS.—It is the sense of Con-
gress that— 
(1) the April 2010 Nuclear Posture Review, a 
February 2011 letter from the President to the Sen-
ate, and many other policy statements and docu-
ments have identified the Uranium Capabilities Re-
placement Project as a critical nuclear moderniza-
tion priority;
900 
(2) the failure of the Department of Energy 
and the National Nuclear Security Administration to 
successfully and efficiently execute and oversee the 
Uranium Capabilities Replacement Project under-
mines national security and jeopardizes the long- 
term credibility of the nuclear deterrent; 
(3) the April 8, 2014, testimony of the Acting 
Administrator for Nuclear Security that ‘‘close to 
half’’ of the $1,200,000,000 taxpayers have spent on 
the design of such project has been wasted is a 
grievous misuse of limited taxpayer funds, and the 
appropriate officials of the Federal Government and 
contractors must be held accountable; 
(4) the uranium capabilities and modern infra-
structure that are to be provided by all three phases 
of the Uranium Capabilities Replacement Project 
are critical to national security and Congress fully 
supports efforts to deliver all of these capabilities ef-
ficiently and expeditiously; 
(5) focused attention and robust leadership 
from the highest levels of the executive branch and 
Congress are required to ensure that such project 
delivers such critical national security capabilities; 
and
901

SEC. 3114. PLUTONIUM PIT PRODUCTION CAPACITY. 
(a) FINDINGS.—Congress finds the following: 
(1) In 2008, the Department of Defense and 
the Department of Energy, acting through the Nu-
clear Weapons Council established by section 179 of 
title 10, United States Code, agreed on a strategy 
to balance cost, risk, and stockpile needs and estab-
lished the requirement for the Department of En-
ergy to produce 50 to 80 plutonium pits per year. 
(2) In a memorandum of agreement dated May 
3, 2010, entered into by the Secretary of Defense 
and the Secretary of Energy, the Secretaries agreed
905 
that the Department of Energy would achieve a min-
imum pit production capacity of 50 to 80 pits per 
year by 2022. 
(3) The current plans of the Secretary of En-
ergy would achieve a pit production capacity of 50 
to 80 pits per year by 2031, resulting in a delay of 
nearly a decade as compared to the agreement de-
scribed in paragraph (2). 
(4) In a report dated January 14, 2014, that 
the Secretary of Defense submitted to Congress, the 
Secretary stated that ‘‘the Department of Defense 
has revalidated its requirement for 50 – 80 pits per 
year based on the demands of stockpile moderniza-
tion, the commitments to a modern physical infra-
structure, and the ability to hedge against technical 
failure or geopolitical risk.’’. 
(b) SENSE OF CONGRESS.—It is the sense of Con-
gress that— 
(1) the requirement to create a modern, respon-
sive nuclear infrastructure that includes the capa-
bility and capacity to produce, at minimum, 50 to 
80 pits per year, is a national security priority; 
(2) delaying creation of a modern, responsive 
nuclear infrastructure until the 2030s is an unac-
906 
ceptable risk to the nuclear deterrent and the na-
tional security of the United States; and 
(3) timelines for creating certain capacities for 
production of plutonium pits and other nuclear 
weapons components must be driven by the require-
ment to hedge against technical and geopolitical risk 
and not solely by the needs of life extension pro-
grams. 
(c) PIT PRODUCTION.— 
(1) IN GENERAL.—Title XLII of the Atomic 
Energy Defense Act (50 U.S.C. 2521 et seq.) is 
amended by inserting after the item relating to sec-
tion 4218 the following new section: 
‘‘SEC. 4219. PLUTONIUM PIT PRODUCTION CAPACITY. 
‘‘(a) REQUIREMENT.—Consistent with the require-
ments of the Secretary of Defense, the Secretary of En-
ergy shall ensure that the nuclear security enterprise— 
‘‘(1) during 2023, produces not less than 30 
war reserve plutonium pits; 
‘‘(2) during 2026, produces not less than 50 
war reserve plutonium pits; and 
‘‘(3) during a pilot period of not less than 90 
days during 2027, demonstrates the capability to 
produce war reserve plutonium pits at a rate suffi-
cient to produce 80 pits per year.
907

committees and the Secretary of Defense that the pro-
grams and budget of the Secretary will enable the nuclear 
security enterprise to meet the requirements under sub-
section (a). 
‘‘(c) PLAN.—If the Secretary does not make a certifi-
cation by March 1 of any year in which a certification 
is required under subsection (b), by not later than May 
1 of such year, the Chairman of the Nuclear Weapons 
Council shall submit to the congressional defense commit-
tees a plan to enable the nuclear security enterprise to 
meet the requirements under subsection (b). Such plan 
shall include identification of the resources of the Depart-
ment of Energy that the Chairman determines should be 
redirected to support the plan to meet such require-
ments.’’.

SEC. 3503. SENSE OF CONGRESS ON THE ROLE OF DOMES-
TIC MARITIME INDUSTRY IN NATIONAL SECU-
RITY. 
(a) FINDINGS.—Congress finds that— 
(1) the United States domestic maritime indus-
try carries hundreds of million of tons of cargo an-
nually, supports nearly 500,000 jobs, and provides 
nearly 100 billion in annual economic output; 
(2) the Nation’s military sealift capacity will 
benefit from one of the fastest growing segments of 
the domestic trades, 14 domestic trade tankers that 
are on order to be constructed at United States 
shipyards as of February 1, 2014; 
(3) the domestic trades’ vessel innovations that 
transformed worldwide maritime commerce include 
the development of containerships, self-unloading 
vessels, articulated tug-barges, trailer barges, chem-
ical parcel tankers, railroad-on-barge carfloats, and 
river flotilla towing systems;
939 
(4) the national security benefits of the domes-
tic maritime industry are unquestioned as the De-
partment of Defense depends on United States do-
mestic trades’ fleet of container ships, roll-on/roll-off 
ships, and product tankers to carry military cargoes; 
(5) the Department of Defense benefits from a 
robust commercial shipyard and ship repair industry 
and current growth in that sector is particularly im-
portant as Federal budget cuts may reduce the num-
ber of new constructed military vessels; and 
(6) the domestic fleet is essential to national se-
curity and was a primary source of mariners needed 
to crew United States Government-owned sealift ves-
sels activated from reserve status during Operations 
Enduring Freedom and Iraqi Freedom in the period 
2002 through 2010. 
(b) SENSE OF CONGRESS.—It is the sense of Con-
gress that United States coastwise trade laws promote a 
strong domestic trade maritime industry, which supports 
the national security and economic vitality of the United 
States and the efficient operation of the United States 
transportation system.
