(c) PERFORMANCE
PARTNERSHIP
AGREEMENTS.— 
Federal agencies may use Federal discretionary funds, as 
authorized in subsection (b), to participate in a Perform-
ance Partnership Pilot only in accordance with the terms 
of a Performance Partnership Agreement that— 
(1) is entered into between— 
(A) the head of the lead Federal admin-
istering agency, on behalf of all of the partici-
pating Federal agencies (subject to the head of 
the lead Federal administering agency having re-
ceived from the heads of each of the other partici-
pating agencies their written concurrence for en-
tering into the Agreement), and 
(B) the respective representatives of all of 
the State, local, or tribal governments that are 
participating in the Agreement; and 
(2) specifies, at a minimum, the following infor-
mation: 
(A) the length of the Agreement (which shall 
not extend beyond September 30, 2018);
973 
(B) the Federal programs and federally 
funded services that are involved in the Pilot; 
(C) the Federal discretionary funds that are 
being used in the Pilot (by the respective Federal 
account identifier, and the total amount from 
such account that is being used in the Pilot), 
and the period (or periods) of availability for ob-
ligation (by the Federal Government) of such 
funds; 
(D) the non-Federal funds that are involved 
in the Pilot, by source (which may include pri-
vate funds as well as governmental funds) and 
by amount; 
(E) the State, local, or tribal programs that 
are involved in the Pilot; 
(F) the populations to be served by the 
Pilot; 
(G) the cost-effective Federal oversight pro-
cedures that will be used for the purpose of 
maintaining the necessary level of accountability 
for the use of the Federal discretionary funds; 
(H) the cost-effective State, local, or tribal 
oversight procedures that will be used for the 
purpose of maintaining the necessary level of ac-
974 
countability for the use of the Federal discre-
tionary funds; 
(I) the outcome (or outcomes) that the Pilot 
is designed to achieve; 
(J) the appropriate, reliable, and objective 
outcome-measurement methodology that the Fed-
eral Government and the participating State, 
local, or tribal governments will use, in carrying 
out the Pilot, to determine whether the Pilot is 
achieving, and has achieved, the specified out-
comes that the Pilot is designed to achieve; 
(K) the statutory, regulatory, or adminis-
trative requirements related to Federal manda-
tory programs that are barriers to achieving im-
proved outcomes of the Pilot; and 
(L) in cases where, during the course of the 
Pilot, it is determined that the Pilot is not 
achieving the specified outcomes that it is de-
signed to achieve, 
(i) the consequences that will result 
from such deficiencies with respect to the 
Federal discretionary funds that are being 
used in the Pilot, and 
(ii) the corrective actions that will be 
taken in order to increase the likelihood that
975 
the Pilot, upon completion, will have 
achieved such specified outcomes. 
(d) AGENCY HEAD DETERMINATIONS.—A Federal 
agency may participate in a Performance Partnership 
Pilot (including by providing Federal discretionary funds 
that have been appropriated to such agency) only upon the 
written determination by the head of such agency that the 
agency’s participation in such Pilot— 
(1) will not result in denying or restricting the 
eligibility of any individual for any of the services 
that (in whole or in part) are funded by the agency’s 
programs and Federal discretionary funds that are 
involved in the Pilot, and 
(2) based on the best available information, will 
not otherwise adversely affect vulnerable populations 
that are the recipients of such services. 
In making this determination, the head of the agency may 
take into consideration the other Federal discretionary 
funds that will be used in the Pilot as well as any non- 
Federal funds (including from private sources as well as 
governmental sources) that will be used in the Pilot. 
(e) TRANSFER AUTHORITY.—For the purpose of car-
rying out the Pilot in accordance with the Performance 
Partnership Agreement, and subject to the written approval 
of the Director of the Office of Management and Budget,
976 
the head of each participating Federal agency may transfer 
Federal discretionary funds that are being used in the Pilot 
to an account of the lead Federal administering agency that 
includes Federal discretionary funds that are being used in 
the Pilot. Subject to the waiver authority under subsection 
(f), such transferred funds shall remain available for the 
same purposes for which such funds were originally appro-
priated: Provided, That such transferred funds shall remain 
available for obligation by the Federal Government until 
the expiration of the period of availability for those Federal 
discretionary funds (which are being used in the Pilot) that 
have the longest period of availability, except that any such 
transferred funds shall not remain available beyond Sep-
tember 30, 2018. 
(f) WAIVER AUTHORITY.—In connection with a Fed-
eral agency’s participation in a Performance Partnership 
Pilot, and subject to the other provisions of this section (in-
cluding subsection (e)), the head of the Federal agency to 
which the Federal discretionary funds were appropriated 
may waive (in whole or in part) the application, solely to 
such discretionary funds that are being used in the Pilot, 
of any statutory, regulatory, or administrative requirement 
that such agency head—
978 
(iii) will result in either— 
(I) realizing efficiencies by sim-
plifying reporting burdens or reducing 
administrative barriers with respect to 
such discretionary funds, or 
(II) increasing the ability of indi-
viduals to obtain access to services that 
are provided by such discretionary 
funds; and 
(C) provide at least 60 days advance writ-
ten notice to the Committees on Appropriations 
and other committees of jurisdiction in the 
House of Representatives and the Senate. 
SEC. 527. Each Federal agency, or in the case of an 
agency with multiple bureaus, each bureau (or operating 
division) funded under this Act that has research and devel-
opment expenditures in excess of $100,000,000 per year 
shall develop a Federal research public access policy that 
provides for— 
(1) the submission to the agency, agency bureau, 
or designated entity acting on behalf of the agency, a 
machine-readable version of the author’s final peer-re-
viewed manuscripts that have been accepted for publi-
cation in peer-reviewed journals describing research
979 
supported, in whole or in part, from funding by the 
Federal Government; 
(2) free online public access to such final peer- 
reviewed manuscripts or published versions not later 
than 12 months after the official date of publication; 
and 
(3) compliance with all relevant copyright laws. 
SEC. 528. (a) None of the funds made available in this 
Act may be used to maintain or establish a computer net-
work unless such network blocks the viewing, downloading, 
and exchanging of pornography. 
(b) Nothing in subsection (a) shall limit the use of 
funds necessary for any Federal, State, tribal, or local law 
enforcement agency or any other entity carrying out crimi-
nal investigations, prosecution, or adjudication activities.
