waiver shall be made under regulations prescribed by the Secretary 
and shall be based on a determination by the Secretary that Govern-
ment performance of the workload is no longer required for national 
defense reasons. Such regulations shall include criteria for deter-
mining whether Government performance of any such workload 
is no longer required for national defense reasons. 
‘‘(3)(A) A waiver under paragraph (2) may not take effect until 
the expiration of the first period of 30 days of continuous session 
of Congress that begins on or after the date on which the Secretary 
submits a report on the waiver to the Committee on Armed Services

‘‘(i) RESERVE OFFICERS EMPLOYED
AS MILITARY TECHNICIAN 
(DUAL STATUS).—A reserve officer of the Army or Air Force employed

title who has been retained beyond the mandatory removal date

management category of the Department of Defense. 
(b) ELEMENTS.—In conducting the study required by subsection

personnel, 
reserve 
component 
personnel, 
State 
civilian 
employees, and Federal civilian employees in a manner that 
meets mission requirements without harming unit readiness; 
(2) identify various means for the management by the 
Department of the transition of military technicians to a system 
that relies on traditional personnel categories of active duty 
personnel, reserve component personnel, and civilian personnel, 
and for the management of any effects of that transition on 
the pay and benefits of current military technicians (including 
means for mitigating or avoiding such effects in the course 
of such transition);

(3) determine whether military technicians who are 
employed at the commencement of the transition described 
in paragraph (2) should remain as technicians, whether with 
or without a military status, until separation or retirement, 
rather than transitioned to such a traditional personnel cat-
egory;

the National Guard in the management and use of military 
technicians; 
(5) determine potential cost savings, if any, to be achieved

including savings in long-term mandatory entitlement costs 
associated with military and civil service retirement obligations;

ability of terminating the military technician as a distinct per-
sonnel management category, and, if the termination is deter-
mined to be feasible and advisable, develop recommendations 
for appropriate legislative and administrative action to imple-
ment the termination; 
(7) address any other matter relating to the management 
and long-term viability of the military technician as a distinct 
personnel management category that the Secretary shall specify 
for purposes of the study; and 
(8) ensure the involvement and input of military techni-
cians (dual status). 
(c) REPORT.—Not later than one year after the date of the 
enactment of this Act, the Secretary shall submit to the congres-
sional defense committees a report on the study required by sub-

Subtitle C—General Service Authorities 
SEC. 521. SENSE OF CONGRESS ON THE UNIQUE NATURE, DEMANDS, 
AND HARDSHIPS OF MILITARY SERVICE. 
It is the sense of Congress that— 
(1) section 8 (clauses 12, 13, and 14) of Article I of the 
Constitution of the United States commits exclusively to Con-
gress the powers to raise and support armies, provide and 
maintain a Navy, and make rules for the government and 
regulation of the land and naval forces; 
(2) there is no constitutional right to serve in the Armed 
Forces; 
(3) pursuant to the powers conferred by section 8 of article 
I of the Constitution of the United States, it lies within the 
discretion of the Congress to establish qualifications for and 
conditions of service in the Armed Forces; 
(4) the primary purpose of the Armed Forces is to prepare 
for and to prevail in combat should the need arise; 
(5) the conduct of military operations requires members 
of the Armed Forces to make extraordinary sacrifices, including 
the ultimate sacrifice, in order to provide for the common 
defense;

PUBLIC LAW 112–81—DEC. 31, 2011 
(6) success in combat requires military units that are 
characterized by high morale, good order and discipline, and 
unit cohesion; 
(7) one of the most critical elements in combat capability 
is unit cohesion, that is, the bonds of trust among individual 
members of the Armed Forces that make the combat effective-
ness of a military unit greater than the sum of the combat 
effectiveness of individual unit members; 
(8) military life is fundamentally different from civilian 
life in that— 
(A) the extraordinary responsibilities of the Armed 
Forces, the unique conditions of military service, and the 
critical role of unit cohesion require that the military 
community, while subject to civilian control, exist as a 
specialized society; and 
(B) the military society is characterized by its own 
laws, rules, customs, and traditions, including numerous 
restrictions on personal behavior, that would not be accept-
able in civilian society; 
(9) the standards of conduct for members of the Armed 
Forces regulate a member’s life for 24 hours each day beginning 
at the moment the member enters military status and not 
ending until that person is discharged or otherwise separated 
from the Armed Forces; 
(10) those standards of conduct, including the Uniform 
Code of Military Justice, apply to a member of the Armed 
Forces at all times that the member has a military status, 
whether the member is on base or off base, and whether the 
member is on duty or off duty; 
(11) the pervasive application of the standards of conduct 
is necessary because members of the Armed Forces must be 
ready at all times for worldwide deployment to a combat 
environment; 
(12) the worldwide deployment of United States military 
forces, the international responsibilities of the United States, 
and the potential for involvement of the Armed Forces in actual 
combat routinely make it necessary for members of the Armed 
Forces involuntarily to accept living conditions and working 
conditions that are often spartan, primitive, and characterized 
by forced intimacy with little or no privacy; and 
(13) the Armed Forces must maintain personnel policies 
that are intended to recruit and retain only those persons 
whose presence in the Armed Forces serves the needs of the 
Armed Forces, contributes to the accomplishment of the mis-
sions of the Armed Forces, and maintains the high standards 
of the Armed Forces for morale, good order and discipline, 
and unit cohesion that are the essence of military capability.

have been eligible to receive the allowance if the duty assign-
ment was not excluded by the Secretary of Defense); 
‘‘(B) the number of members who received each rate of 
allowance paid (estimated in the case of members described 
in the parenthetical phrase in subparagraph (A)); 
‘‘(C) the number of months each member received the allow-
ance (or would have received it in the case of members described 
in the parenthetical phrase in subparagraph (A)); and 
‘‘(D) the total amount expended on the allowance. 
‘‘(4) For each of the armed forces, the data collection repository 
shall be able to indicate, for a fiscal year, the number of days 
that high demand, low density units (as defined by the Chairman 
of the Joint Chiefs of Staff) were deployed, and whether these 
units met the force goals for limiting deployments, as described 
in the personnel tempo policies applicable to that armed force.’’. 
(c) DEFINITIONS.—Such section is further amended by adding 
at the end the following new subsection: 
‘‘(f) OTHER DEFINITIONS.—In this section: 
‘‘(1)(A) Subject to subparagraph (B), the term ‘dwell time’ 
means the time a member of the armed forces or a unit spends 
at the permanent duty station or home port after returning 
from a deployment. 
‘‘(B) The Secretary of Defense may modify the definition 
of dwell time specified in subparagraph (A). If the Secretary 
establishes a different definition of such term, the Secretary 
shall transmit the new definition to Congress. 
‘‘(2) The term ‘operating tempo’ means the rate at which 
units of the armed forces are involved in all military activities, 
including contingency operations, exercises, and training 
deployments.

protections, the use of long-term contracts for alternative fuels 
can be in the best interest of the Department if the costs 
of these contracts are competitive with other fuel contracts. 
(3) The Department has asked for the authority to enter 
into long-term contracts for alternative fuels. 
(b) SENSE
OF CONGRESS.—It is the sense of Congress that 
the Department of Defense should continue to pursue long-term 
contracting authority for alternative fuels, as well as traditional 
fuels, if the contracts will satisfy military requirements and result 
in equal or less cost to the Department over their duration. 
(c) REPORT.—Not later than 120 days after the date of the

to deny safe havens to al-Qaeda and its violent extremist affili-
ates and to strengthen at-risk states. Such guidance shall serve 
as the strategic plan that governs United States and coordi-
nated international efforts to enhance the capacity of govern-
mental and nongovernmental entities to work toward the goal 
of eliminating the ability of al-Qaeda and its violent extremist 
affiliates to establish or maintain safe havens. 
(2) CONTENTS OF GUIDANCE.—The guidance required under

the United States to strengthen at-risk states or other 
entities in such areas. 
(B) For each specified geographic area, a description, 
analysis, and discussion of the core problems and contrib-
uting issues that allow or could allow al-Qaeda and its 
violent extremist affiliates to use the area as a safe haven 
from which to plan and launch attacks, engage in propa-
ganda, or raise funds and other support, including any 
ongoing or potential radicalization of the population, or 
to use the area as a key transit route for personnel, 
weapons, funding, or other support.

SEC. 1044. SENSE OF CONGRESS ON NUCLEAR FORCE REDUCTIONS. 
It is the sense of Congress that— 
(1) any reductions in the nuclear forces of the United 
States should be supported by a thorough assessment of the 
strategic environment, threat, and policy and the technical 
and operational implications of such reductions; and 
(2) specific criteria are necessary to guide future decisions 
regarding further reductions in the nuclear forces of the United 
States. 
SEC. 1045. NUCLEAR FORCE REDUCTIONS. 
(a) IMPLEMENTATION OF NEW START TREATY.— 
(1) SENSE OF CONGRESS.—It is the Sense of Congress that— 
(A) the United States is committed to maintaining 
a safe, secure, reliable, and credible nuclear deterrent; 
(B) the United States should undertake and support 
an enduring stockpile stewardship program and maintain 
and modernize nuclear weapons production capabilities and 
capacities to ensure the safety, security, reliability, and 
credibility of the United States nuclear deterrent and to 
meet requirements for hedging against possible inter-
national developments or technical problems; 
(C) the United States should maintain nuclear weapons 
laboratories and plants and preserve the intellectual infra-
structure, including competencies and skill sets; and 
(D) the United States should provide the necessary 
resources to achieve these goals, using as a starting point 
the levels set forth in the President’s 10-year plan provided 
to Congress pursuant to section 1251 of the National 
Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2010 (Public 
Law 111–84; 123 Stat. 2549). 
(2) REPORT.—If the President determines that an appro-
priations Act is enacted that fails to meet the resource require-
ments set forth in the plan referred to in section 1251 of 
the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2010 
(Public Law 111–84; 123 Stat. 2549), or, if at any time, deter-
mines that more resources are required to carry out such plan 
than were estimated, the President shall submit to Congress, 
within 60 days of making such a determination, a report 
detailing— 
(A) a plan to address the resource shortfall; 
(B) if more resources are required to carry out the 
plan than were estimated, the level of funding needed, 
and a detailed explanation of the purpose or purposes 
for which the additional resources will be used; 
(C) any effects on the safety, security, reliability, or 
credibility of United States nuclear forces due to the short-
fall or the identified additional resources required; and 
(D) an explanation of whether any planned reductions 
in United States nuclear forces are still in the national 
interest of the United States in view of the resource short-
fall or the identification of additional required resources.

posal described in subsection (b)— 
(A) the Commander of United States Strategic Com-
mand shall conduct a net assessment of the current and 
proposed nuclear forces of the United States and of other 
countries that possess nuclear weapons to determine 
whether the nuclear forces of the United States are antici-
pated to be capable of meeting the objectives of the United 
States with respect to nuclear deterrence, extended deter-
rence, assurance of allies, and defense; 
(B) the Secretary of Defense shall submit to the 
Committees on Armed Services of the Senate and House 
of Representatives the assessment described in subpara-
graph (A), unchanged, together with the explanatory views 
of the Secretary, as the Secretary deems appropriate; and

rence, extended deterrence, and assurances for allies, and the 
defense of the United States; and 
(2) the oversight responsibility of Congress includes over-
sight of the nuclear employment strategy of the United States 
and that therefore the Chairmen and Ranking Members of 
the Committees on Armed Services of the Senate and House 
of Representatives, and such professional staff as they des-
ignate, should have access to the nuclear employment strategy 
of the United States. 
(b) REPORTS ON MODIFICATION OF STRATEGY.—

installation so remote from the nearest established communities

capable of delivering nuclear weapons—provides reassurance 
to NATO allies who feel exposed to regional threats.

SEC. 1245. IMPOSITION OF SANCTIONS WITH RESPECT TO THE FINAN-
CIAL SECTOR OF IRAN. 
(a) FINDINGS.—Congress makes the following findings: 
(1) On November 21, 2011, the Secretary of the Treasury 
issued a finding under section 5318A of title 31, United States 
Code, that identified Iran as a jurisdiction of primary money 
laundering concern. 
(2) In that finding, the Financial Crimes Enforcement Net-
work of the Department of the Treasury wrote, ‘‘The Central 
Bank of Iran, which regulates Iranian banks, has assisted 
designated Iranian banks by transferring billions of dollars 
to these banks in 2011. In mid-2011, the CBI transferred sev-
eral billion dollars to designated banks, including Saderat, 
Mellat, EDBI and Melli, through a variety of payment schemes. 
In making these transfers, the CBI attempted to evade sanc-
tions by minimizing the direct involvement of large inter-
national banks with both CBI and designated Iranian banks.’’. 
(3) On November 22, 2011, the Under Secretary of the 
Treasury for Terrorism and Financial Intelligence, David 
Cohen, wrote, ‘‘Treasury is calling out the entire Iranian 
banking sector, including the Central Bank of Iran, as posing 
terrorist financing, proliferation financing, and money laun-
dering risks for the global financial system.’’. 
(b) DESIGNATION OF FINANCIAL SECTOR OF IRAN AS OF PRIMARY 
MONEY
LAUNDERING
CONCERN.—The financial sector of Iran, 
including the Central Bank of Iran, is designated as a primary 
money laundering concern for purposes of section 5318A of title 
31, United States Code, because of the threat to government and 
financial institutions resulting from the illicit activities of the 
Government of Iran, including its pursuit of nuclear weapons, sup-
port for international terrorism, and efforts to deceive responsible 
financial institutions and evade sanctions. 
(c) FREEZING OF ASSETS OF IRANIAN FINANCIAL INSTITUTIONS.— 
The President shall, pursuant to the International Emergency Eco-
nomic Powers Act (50 U.S.C. 1701 et seq.), block and prohibit 
all transactions in all property and interests in property of an 
Iranian financial institution if such property and interests in prop-
erty are in the United States, come within the United States, 
or are or come within the possession or control of a United States 
person. 
(d) IMPOSITION OF SANCTIONS WITH RESPECT TO THE CENTRAL 
BANK OF IRAN AND OTHER IRANIAN FINANCIAL INSTITUTIONS.— 
(1) IN GENERAL.—Except as specifically provided in this 
subsection, beginning on the date that is 60 days after the 
date of the enactment of this Act, the President— 
(A) shall prohibit the opening, and prohibit or impose 
strict conditions on the maintaining, in the United States 
of a correspondent account or a payable-through account 
by a foreign financial institution that the President deter-
mines has knowingly conducted or facilitated any signifi-
cant financial transaction with the Central Bank of Iran 
or another Iranian financial institution designated by the 
Secretary of the Treasury for the imposition of sanctions
