Note From the Director, Legislative Operations
This committee print consists of the enrolled text and
explanatory material for the Carl Levin and Howard P. ``Buck''
McKeon National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2015
(H.R. 3979; Public Law 113-291).
This Act and the material found in this committee print are
the product of an agreement between the Chairman and Ranking
Member of the House Committee on Armed Services and the
Chairman and Ranking Member of the Senate Committee on Armed
Services on H.R. 4435, as passed by the House of
Representatives on May 22, 2014, and S. 2410, as reported out
of committee on May 22, 2014. The Senate did not bring S. 2410
to the Senate Floor for further consideration, and therefore
was unable to initiate a formal conference with the House.
In order to ensure the enactment of an annual National
Defense Authorization Act by the end of the calendar year, the
Chairman and Ranking Member of the House Committee on Armed
Services and the Chairman and Ranking Member of the Senate
Committee on Armed Services agreed to reconcile the provisions
of H.R. 4435 and S. 2410, including a number of proposed
amendments submitted for consideration had the Senate gone to
the Floor with its bill and were cleared by both sides. The
negotiated agreement was brought to the House Floor in the form
of an amendment to the Senate amendment to H.R. 3979. On
December 4, 2014, pursuant to H. Res. 770, the House considered
a motion to concur in the Senate amendment to H.R. 3979 with an
amendment, which contained the agreed upon legislative text
between the House and the Senate. On December 4, 2014, the
House agreed to the amendment to the Senate amendment by a vote
of 300-119 (Roll no. 551). On December 12, 2014, the Senate
agreed to the House amendment to the Senate amendment to H.R.
3979 by a vote of 89-11 (Record Vote Number: 325). The
President signed the legislation on December 19, 2014, and it
became Public Law 113-291.
Because the House and Senate negotiators were unable to
convene a formal conference committee to resolve the
differences in the respective versions of the bill, there is no
conference report and no formal ``joint explanatory statement
of the conference committee'' for H.R. 3979. Instead, Chairman
Howard P. ``Buck'' McKeon and Chairman Carl Levin submitted a
``Joint Explanatory Statement to Accompany the National Defense
Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2015'' in the Congressional
Record on December 4, 2014 (pages H8671-H8819). The text of the
joint explanatory statement is included in this committee
print. Section 5 of H.R. 3979 specifies that this explanatory
material shall have the same effect with respect to the
implementation of this legislation as if it were a joint
explanatory statement of a committee of conference.
In this committee print, the provisions of H.R. 4435, the
House-passed version of the National Defense Authorization Act
for Fiscal Year 2015, are generally referred to as ``the House
bill.'' The provisions of S. 2410, the Senate Committee on
Armed Services committee-reported version of the National
Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2015, are generally
referred to as ``the Senate committee-reported bill.'' Senate
amendments included in the agreements are identified by Senate
amendment numbers. The final form of the agreements reached
during negotiations between the House and the Senate are
referred to as ``the agreement.''
The following pages are organized in the manner of a
traditional conference report.

CARL LEVIN AND HOWARD P. ``BUCK'' McKEON NATIONAL DEFENSE AUTHORIZATION
ACT FOR FISCAL YEAR 2015
LEGISLATIVE TEXT
[Note from the Director, Legislative Operations: The
following is the enrolled legislative text of H.R. 3979, the
Carl Levin and Howard P. ``Buck'' McKeon National Defense
Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2015, as passed by the House
of Representatives and the Senate]
Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of
the United States of America in Congress assembled,
SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.
(a) Short Title.--This Act may be cited as the ``Carl Levin
and Howard P. `Buck' McKeon National Defense Authorization Act
for Fiscal Year 2015''.
(b) Findings.--Congress makes the following findings:
(1)(A) Senator Carl Levin of Michigan was elected a
member of the United States Senate on November 7, 1978,
for a full term beginning January 3, 1979. He has
served continuously in the Senate since that date, and
was appointed as a member of the Committee on Armed
Services in January 1979. He has served on the
Committee on Armed Services since that date, a period
of nearly 36 years.
(B) A graduate of Detroit Central High School,
Senator Levin went on to Swarthmore College, and
graduated from Harvard Law School in 1959, gaining
admittance to the Michigan bar. He served his State as
assistant attorney general and general counsel of the
Michigan Civil Rights Commission from 1964-1967, and
later served his hometown of Detroit as a member of the
Detroit City Council from 1969-1973, and as the
council's president from 1974-1977.
(C) Senator Levin first served as chairman of the
Committee on Armed Services of the United States Senate
for a period of the 107th Congress, and has remained
chairman since the 110th Congress began in 2007. He has
exercised extraordinary leadership as either the
chairman or ranking minority member of the committee
since the start of the 105th Congress in 1997.
(D) Each year, for the past 52 years, the Committee
on Armed Services has reliably passed an annual defense
authorization act, and this will be the 36th that
Senator Levin has had a role in. In his capacity as
member, ranking member, and chairman, he has been an
advocate for a strong national defense, and has made
lasting contributions to the security of our Nation.
(E) It is altogether fitting and proper that this
Act, the last annual authorization act for the national
defense that Senator Levin manages in and for the
United States Senate as chairman of the Committee on
Armed Services, be named in his honor, as provided in
subsection (a).
(2)(A) Representative Howard P. ``Buck'' McKeon was
elected to the House of Representatives in 1992 to
represent California's 25th Congressional District.
(B) Chairman McKeon was born in Los Angeles and grew
up in Tujunga CA. He served a two and a half year
mission for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day
Saints and attended Brigham Young University. Prior to
his election to Congress, he was a small business
owner, and served both on the William S. Hart Union
High School District Board of Trustees and as the first
mayor of the City of Santa Clarita.
(C) In the 111th Congress, Chairman McKeon was
selected by his peers as the Ranking Member of the
House Armed Services Committee and has served as
Chairman since in the 112th and 113th Congresses.
Previously Chairman McKeon had served as the Chairman
of the House Committee on Education and the Workforce.
(D) Chairman McKeon is a champion of a strong
national defense, the men and women of America's Armed
Forces and their families, and returning fiscal
discipline to the Department of Defense. His priority
has been to ensure our troops deployed around the world
have the equipment, resources, authorities, training
and time they need to successfully complete their
missions and return home.
(E) For 52 consecutive years, the House Armed
Services Committee, in a bipartisan, bicameral
tradition, has passed and enacted an annual defense
authorization act. Chairman McKeon had said it has been
the privilege of his life to shepherd that tradition
under his tenure.
(F) It is therefore fitting this Act, the last
national defense authorization act of his tenure, be
named in Chairman McKeon's honor, as provided in
subsection (a).
(c) References.--Any reference in this or any other Act to
the ``National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2015''
shall be deemed to refer to the ``Carl Levin and Howard P.
`Buck' McKeon National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal
Year 2015''.

subject to certain conditions established by law (including a
condition as to cost savings to be achieved under the multiyear
contract in comparison to specified other contracts) and if it
appears (after negotiations with contractors) that such savings
cannot be achieved, but that substantial savings could
nevertheless be achieved through the use of a multiyear
contract rather than specified other contracts, the President

cost savings that must be achieved through multiyear
contracting for that program. Any such request by the President
shall include details about the request for a multiyear
contract, including details about the negotiated contract terms

subsequent fiscal year (including an economic order quantity of
such long-lead items when authorized by law).

paragraph (3) notwithstanding the fact that one or more of the
conditions of such certification are not met, if the Secretary
determines that, due to exceptional circumstances, proceeding
with a multiyear contract under this section is in the best
interest of the Department of Defense and the Secretary
provides the basis for such determination with the
certification.

the certification under paragraph (3) or the determination

SEC. 1015. SENSE OF CONGRESS REGARDING SECURITY IN THE WESTERN
HEMISPHERE.
(a) Findings.--Congress makes the following findings:
(1) The stability and security of the Western
Hemisphere has a direct impact on the security
interests of the United States.
(2) Over the past decade, there has been a marked
increase in violence and instability in the region as a
result of weak governance and increasingly capable
transnational criminal organizations. These criminal
organizations operate global, multi-billion dollar
networks that traffic narcotics, humans, weapons, and
bulk cash.
(3) Conflict between the various transnational
criminal organizations for smuggling routes and
territory has resulted in skyrocketing violence.
According to the United Nations Office on Drugs and
Crime, Honduras has the highest murder rate in the
world with 90 murders per 100,000 people.
(4) United States Northern Command and United States
Southern Command are the lead combatant commands for
Department of Defense efforts to combat illicit
trafficking in the Western Hemisphere.
(5) To combat these destabilizing threats, through a
variety of authorities, the Department of Defense
advises, trains, educates, and equips vetted troops in
the region to enhance their military and police forces,
with an emphasis on human rights and the rule of law.
(6) As a result of decades of instability and
violence, tens of thousands of unaccompanied alien
children and their families have fled to the border
between the United States and Mexico. In fiscal year
2014, approximately 66,000 such children were
apprehended crossing into the United States from
Mexico.
(b) Sense of Congress.--It is the sense of Congress that--
(1) the Department of Defense should continue its
efforts to combat transnational criminal organizations
in the Western Hemisphere;
(2) the Department of Defense should increase its
maritime, aerial and intelligence, surveillance, and
reconnaissance capabilities in the region to more
effectively support efforts to reduce illicit
trafficking into the United States; and
(3) enhancing the capacity of partner nations in the
region to combat the threat posed by transnational
criminal organizations should be a cornerstone of the
Department of Defense's strategy in the region.

SEC. 1024. SENSE OF CONGRESS RECOGNIZING THE ANNIVERSARY OF THE SINKING
OF U.S.S. THRESHER.
(a) Findings.--Congress makes the following findings:
(1) U.S.S. Thresher was first launched at Portsmouth
Naval Shipyard on July 9, 1960.
(2) U.S.S. Thresher departed Portsmouth Naval
Shipyard for her final voyage on April 9, 1963, with a
crew of 16 officers, 96 sailors, and 17 civilians.
(3) The mix of that crew reflects the unity of the
naval submarine service, military and civilian, in the
protection of the United States.
(4) At approximately 7:47 a.m. on April 10, 1963,
while in communication with the surface ship U.S.S.
Skylark, and approximately 220 miles off the coast of
New England, U.S.S. Thresher began her final descent.
(5) U.S.S. Thresher was declared lost with all hands
on April 10, 1963.
(6) In response to the loss of U.S.S. Thresher, the
United States Navy instituted new regulations to ensure
the health of the submariners and the safety of the
submarines of the United States.
(7) Those regulations led to the establishment of the
Submarine Safety and Quality Assurance program
(SUBSAFE), now one of the most comprehensive military
safety programs in the world.
(8) SUBSAFE has kept the submariners of the United
States safe at sea ever since as the strongest, safest
submarine force in history.
(9) Since the establishment of SUBSAFE, no SUBSAFE-
certified submarine has been lost at sea, which is a
legacy owed to the brave individuals who perished
aboard U.S.S. Thresher.
(10) From the loss of U.S.S. Thresher, there arose in
the institutions of higher education in the United
States the ocean engineering curricula that enables the
preeminence of the United States in submarine warfare.
(11) The crew of U.S.S. Thresher demonstrated the
``last full measure of devotion'' in service to the
United States, and this devotion characterizes the
sacrifices of all submariners, past and present.
(b) Sense of Congress.--Congress--
(1) recognizes the 51st anniversary of the sinking of
U.S.S. Thresher;
(2) remembers with profound sorrow the loss of U.S.S.
Thresher and her gallant crew of sailors and civilians
on April 10, 1963; and
(3) expresses its deepest gratitude to all
submariners on ``eternal patrol'', who are forever
bound together by dedicated and honorable service to
the United States of America.

SEC. 1653. SENSE OF CONGRESS ON DETERRENCE AND DEFENSE POSTURE OF THE
NORTH ATLANTIC TREATY ORGANIZATION.
It is the sense of Congress that the United States reaffirms
and remains committed to the policies enumerated by the North
Atlantic Treaty Organization in the Deterrence and Defense
Posture Review, dated May 20, 2012, and the Wales Summit
Declaration of September 2014, including the following
statements:
(1) As stated in the Deterrence and Defense Posture
Review:
(A) ``The greatest responsibility of the
Alliance is to protect and defend our territory
and our populations against attack, as set out
in Article 5 of the Washington Treaty. The
Alliance does not consider any country to be
its adversary. However, no one should doubt
NATO's resolve if the security of any of its
members were to be threatened. NATO will ensure
that it maintains the full range of
capabilities necessary to deter and defend
against any threat to the safety and security
of our populations, wherever it should arise.
Allies' goal is to bolster deterrence as a core
element of our collective defense and
contribute to the indivisible security of the
Alliance.''.
(B) ``Nuclear weapons are a core component of
NATO's overall capabilities for deterrence and
defense alongside conventional and missile
defense forces. The review has shown that the
Alliance's nuclear force posture currently
meets the criteria for an effective deterrence
and defense posture.''.
(C) ``The circumstances in which any use of
nuclear weapons might have to be contemplated
are extremely remote. As long as nuclear
weapons exist, NATO will remain a nuclear
alliance. The supreme guarantee of the security
of the Allies is provided by the strategic
nuclear forces of the Alliance, particularly
those of the United States; the independent
strategic forces of the United Kingdom and
France, which have a deterrent role of their
own, contribute to the overall deterrence and
security of the Allies.''.
(D) ``NATO must have the full range of
capabilities necessary to deter and defend
against threats to the safety of its
populations and the security of its territory,
which is the Alliance's greatest
responsibility.''.
(E) ``NATO is committed to maintaining an
appropriate mix of nuclear, conventional, and
missile defense capabilities for deterrence and
defense to fulfill its commitments as set out
in the Strategic Concept. These capabilities,
underpinned by NATO's Integrated Command
Structure, offer the strongest guarantee of the
Alliance's security and will ensure that it is
able to respond to a variety of challenges and
unpredictable contingencies in a highly complex
and evolving international security
environment.''.
(2) As stated in the Wales Summit Declaration:
(A) ``Deterrence, based on an appropriate mix
of nuclear, conventional, and missile defence
capabilities, remains a core element of our
overall strategy.''.
(B) ``Arms control, disarmament, and non-
proliferation continue to play an important
role in the achievement of the Alliance's
security objectives. Both the success and
failure of these efforts can have a direct
impact on the threat environment of NATO. In
this context, it is of paramount importance
that disarmament and non-proliferation
commitments under existing treaties are
honoured, including the Intermediate-Range
Nuclear Forces (INF) Treaty, which is a crucial
element of Euro-Atlantic security. In that
regard, Allies call on Russia to preserve the
viability of the INF Treaty through ensuring
full and verifiable compliance.''.

SEC. 1662. TESTING AND ASSESSMENT OF MISSILE DEFENSE SYSTEMS PRIOR TO
PRODUCTION AND DEPLOYMENT.
(a) Sense of Congress.--It is the sense of Congress that--
(1) it is a high priority of the United States that
the ballistic missile defense system should work in an
operationally effective and cost-effective manner;
(2) prior to making final production decisions for
such systems, and prior to the operational deployment
of such systems, the United States should conduct
operationally realistic intercept flight testing that
should create sufficiently challenging operational
conditions to establish confidence that such systems
will work in an operationally effective and cost-
effective manner when needed; and
(3) in order to achieve these objectives, and to
avoid post-production and post-deployment problems, it
is essential for the Department of Defense to follow a
``fly before you buy'' approach to adequately test and
assess the elements of the ballistic missile defense
system before final production decisions or operational
deployment.
(b) Successful Testing Required Prior to Final Production or
Operational Deployment.--The Secretary of Defense may not make
a final production decision for, or operationally deploy, a
covered system unless--
(1) the Secretary ensures that--
(A) sufficient and operationally realistic
testing of the covered system is conducted to
assess the performance of the covered system in
order to inform a final production decision or
an operational deployment decision; and
(B) the results of such testing have
demonstrated a high probability that the
covered system--
(i) will work in an operationally
effective manner; and
(ii) has the ability to accomplish
the intended mission of the covered

VEHICLE.
(a) Sense of Congress.--It is the sense of Congress that--
(1) the existing models of the exo-atmospheric kill
vehicle of the ground-based midcourse defense system
are prototype designs that were developed and deployed
without using traditional acquisition practices in
order to provide an initial defensive capability for an
emerging ballistic missile threat;
(2) consequently, while the deployed models of the
exo-atmospheric kill vehicle have demonstrated an
initial level of capability against a limited threat,
such models do not have the degree of reliability,
robustness, cost effectiveness, and performance that
are desirable;
(3) the exo-atmospheric kill vehicle for the ground-
based midcourse defense system needs to be re-designed
to substantially improve the performance and
reliability of such kill vehicles; and
(4) the Secretary of Defense should follow a robust
and rigorous acquisition plan for the design,
development, and testing of the re-designed exo-
atmospheric kill vehicle.
(b) Acquisition Plan Required.--The Secretary of Defense
shall develop an acquisition plan for the re-design of the exo-
atmospheric kill vehicle of the ground-based midcourse defense
system that includes rigorous elements for system engineering,
design, integration, development, testing, and evaluation.

re-designed exo-atmospheric kill vehicle, the Secretary shall
ensure that the re-designed kill vehicle has demonstrated,
through successful, operationally realistic flight testing--
(1) a high probability of working in an operationally
effective manner; and
(2) the ability to accomplish the intended mission of
the re-designed kill vehicle, including against more
complex emerging ballistic missile threats.
(f) Report Required.--Not later than 60 days after the date
on which the Under Secretary of Defense for Acquisition,
Technology, and Logistics approves the acquisition plan under
subsection (d), the Director of the Missile Defense Agency
shall submit to the congressional defense committees a report
describing the acquisition plan and the manner in which the
plan will meet the objectives described in subsection (c).
SEC. 1664. STUDY ON TESTING PROGRAM OF GROUND-BASED MIDCOURSE MISSILE
DEFENSE SYSTEM.
(a) Study.-- Not later than 120 days after the date of the
enactment of this Act, the Secretary of Defense shall enter
into a contract with a federally funded research and
development center to conduct a study on the testing program of
the ground-based midcourse missile defense system.
(b) Elements.--The study under subsection (a) shall include
the following:
(1) An assessment of whether the testing program
described in subsection (a) has established, as of the
date of the study, that the ground-based midcourse
missile defense system has a high probability of
performing reliably and effectively against limited
missile threats from North Korea and Iran under
realistic operational conditions, including an
explanation of the degree of confidence supporting such
assessment.
(2) An assessment of whether the currently planned
testing program, if implemented, is sufficient to
establish reasonable confidence that the ground-based

contract under subsection (a), the Secretary shall submit to
the congressional defense committees a report containing the
study. The report shall be submitted in unclassified form, but
may include a classified annex.
SEC. 1665. SENSE OF CONGRESS AND REPORT ON HOMELAND BALLISTIC MISSILE
DEFENSE.
(a) Sense of Congress.--It is the sense of Congress that--
(1) it is a national priority to defend the United
States homeland against the threat of limited ballistic
missile attack (whether accidental, unauthorized, or
deliberate);
(2) although the currently deployed ground-based
midcourse defense system provides a level of protection
of the entire United States homeland, including the
East Coast, against the threat of limited ballistic
missile attack from North Korea and Iran, this
capability needs to be improved to meet evolving
ballistic missile threats;
(3) the initial step in this process of improvement
is to correct the problems that caused the flight test
failures with the current kill vehicles, and to improve
the reliability of the deployed ground-based
interceptor fleet;
(4) as indicated by senior officials of the
Department of Defense, continued investments to enhance
homeland defense sensor and discrimination capabilities
are essential to improve the operational effectiveness
and shot doctrine of the ground-based midcourse defense
system;
(5) given limitations with the currently deployed
exo-atmospheric kill vehicles, it is important to re-
design the exo-atmospheric kill vehicle using a
rigorous acquisition approach, including realistic
testing, that can achieve a demonstrated capability as
soon as practicable using sound acquisition principles
and practices; and
(6) in order to stay ahead of evolving ballistic
missile threats, the Department should design the next
generation exo-atmospheric kill vehicle to take full
advantage of improvements in sensors, discrimination,
kill assessment, battle management, and command and
control, including the potential to engage multiple
objects.
(b) Report Required.--
(1) In general.--Not later than 180 days after the

SEC. 3503. SENSE OF CONGRESS ON THE ROLE OF DOMESTIC MARITIME INDUSTRY
IN NATIONAL SECURITY.
(a) Findings.--Congress finds that--
(1) the United States domestic maritime industry
carries hundreds of million of tons of cargo annually,
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, chemical parcel
tankers, railroad-on-barge carfloats, and river
flotilla towing systems;
(4) the national security benefits of the domestic
maritime industry are unquestioned as the Department of
Defense depends on United States domestic 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 important
as Federal budget cuts may reduce the number of new
constructed military vessels; and
(6) the domestic fleet is essential to national
security and was a primary source of mariners needed to
crew United States Government-owned sealift vessels
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 Congress 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.

[Note from the Director, Legislative Operations: The
following is the text of the Joint Explanatory Statement to
Accompany the Carl Levin and Howard P. ``Buck'' McKeon National
Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2015, as printed in
the Congressional Record on December 4, 2014]
The following consists of the explanatory material to
accompany the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal
Year 2015.
Section 5 of the Act specifies that this explanatory
statement shall have the same effect with respect to the
implementation of this legislation as if it were a joint
explanatory statement of a committee of conference.
In this joint explanatory statement, the provisions of H.R.
4435, the House-passed version of the National Defense
Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2015, are generally referred
to as the ``House bill.'' The provisions of S. 2410, the Senate
Committee on Armed Services committee-reported version of the
National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2015, are
generally referred to as ``the Senate committee-reported
bill.'' Senate amendments included in the agreements are
identified by Senate amendment numbers. The final form of the
agreements reached during negotiations between the House and
the Senate are referred to as ``the agreement.''
Compliance with rules of the House of Representatives and Senate
regarding earmarks and congressionally directed spending items
Consistent with the intent of clause 9 of rule XXI of the
Rules of the House of Representatives and rule XLIV of the
Standing Rules of the Senate, neither the bill text reflected
in the agreement nor the accompanying joint explanatory
statement contains any congressional earmarks, congressionally-
directed spending items, limited tax benefits, or limited
tariff benefits, as defined in such rules.
Summary of discretionary authorizations and budget implication
The administration's budget request for national defense
discretionary programs within the jurisdiction of the
Committees on Armed Services of the Senate and the House of
Representatives for fiscal year 2015 was $577.1 billion. Of
this amount, $495.5 billion was requested for base Department
of Defense (DOD) programs, $63.7 billion was requested for
overseas contingency operations (OCO), and $17.9 billion was
requested for national security programs in the Department of
Energy (DOE) and the Defense Nuclear Facilities Safety Board
(DNFSB). The budget request incorporates the amendments
submitted to Congress on June 26, 2014 and November 10, 2014.
The bill authorizes $577.1 billion in fiscal year 2015,
including $495.9 billion for base DOD programs, $63.7 billion
for OCO, and $17.5 billion for national security programs in
the DOE and the DNFSB.
The two tables preceding the detailed program adjustments
in Division D of this joint explanatory statement summarize the
direct discretionary authorizations in the agreement and the
equivalent budget authority levels for fiscal year 2015 defense
programs. The first table summarizes the agreement on
authorizations within the jurisdiction of the Armed Services
Committees. The second table details the budget authority
implication of the discretionary authorizations in the
agreement when accounting for national defense items that are
not in the jurisdiction of the Armed Services Committees.
Budgetary effects of this Act (sec. 4)
The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision
(sec. 4) that would require the budgetary effects of this Act
be determined in accordance with the procedures established in
title I of the Statutory Pay-As-You-Go Act of 2010 (Public Law
111-139).
The House bill contained no similar provision.
The agreement includes the Senate provision.
DIVISION A--DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE AUTHORIZATIONS
Title I--Procurement
BUDGET ITEMS
Navy enterprise information technology
The budget request included $87.2 million in Other
Procurement, Navy Line 161 for enterprise information
technology (IT).
The House bill would approve the budget request.
The Senate committee-reported bill would decrease that line
item by $15.0 million to reflect concerns about the continued
investment of funds into legacy IT infrastructure.
The agreement authorizes the budget request for this item.
We note that much of this funding is supporting
procurements related to the sustainment of legacy Navy IT
systems located outside the continental United States (OCONUS).
We understand that these procurements are necessary to provide
technical upgrades to sustain these networks as the Navy
determines how to converge all of its networks as part of a
future Naval Networking Environment. The investment required by
this funding would bring the OCONUS networks up to a standard
that could support a transition to the Next Generation
Enterprise Network contract in the future, which would also
align Navy networks in a way that would support the enterprise-
wide push to standardize capabilities in the Joint Information
Environment framework. We note that this set of hardware and
network systems transitions entail additional cost, technical
risk, and potentially operational risk to deployed forces,
which could have been avoided with better planning for and more
strategic funding of the systems. We expect the Navy, as well
as the Department of Defense Chief Information Officer, to
ensure that all Department of Navy and Department of Defense
enterprise IT system efforts have robust planning related to
and funding dedicated for the maintenance and sustainment of
legacy systems, and to ensure that systems meet requirements
and reflect modern state-of-the-art IT systems, to the maximum
extent practicable and that this is documented in the programs'
acquisition strategy documentation. This should apply to both
Major Automated Information Systems (MAIS) and non-MAIS
efforts.
Ejection seat safety and reliability improvement program
The amended budget request included no funds for the
procurement of modernized and upgraded ejection seats for
Department of the Air Force fighter and bomber aircraft.
The House bill would increase the budget request by a total
of $10.5 million, of which $3.5 million is for initial
qualification of upgraded ejection seats in the Research,
Development, Test, and Evaluation, Air Force (RDT&E, AF)
account, and $7.0 million is for initial installation of
upgraded ejection seats in the Aircraft Procurement, Air Force
(APAF) account.
The Senate committee-reported bill approved the budget
request.
We recommend an additional increase of $6.0 million
ejection seat programs, including $3.5 million in RDT&E, AF,
and $2.5 million in APAF.
Section 146(b) of the National Defense Authorization Act
for Fiscal Year 2014 (Public Law 113-66) required a report by
the Secretary of the Air Force on various aspects of the health
and safety risks associated with ejection seats. The report
confirmed that, with increased use of helmet-mounted devices,
the risks of death or serious injury increases, and increases
even more for lighter aircrew.
In response to a requirement to analyze initiatives to
decrease the risk of death or serious injury during an ejection
sequence, the report indicated that, although the Air Force had
spent $25.8 million for investments in safety improvements for
existing seats, the Air Force had stopped short of final
qualification testing.
The report also referred to an Air Force analysis of
alternatives (AoA) that the Air Force had conducted in 2010
that supported: ``(a) an improved ejection seat solution with
an expanded anthropometric envelope that would match the
current pilot population to increase safety; and (b) a design
that reduces aircraft life cycle costs.''
We believe that the Air Force should review and update, as
necessary, the 2010 AoA, and establish a program for increasing
the ejection safety and reliability of the Air Force's fighter
and bomber aircraft.
Subtitle A--Authorization of Appropriations

amendment that would clarify that the Milestone B goals and
DOT&E certification would be with regard to each mission
module, rather than with each increment of capability for each
mission module.
Extension of limitation on availability of funds for Littoral Combat
Ship (sec. 123)
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 126) that would
amend section 124(a) of the National Defense Authorization Act
for Fiscal Year 2014 to extend the prohibition on spending in
section 124 to include fiscal year 2015. Section 124 prevents
using funds available in fiscal year 2014 for construction or
advanced procurement of materials for the Littoral Combat Ships
designated as LCS-25 or LCS-26 until the Secretary of the Navy
submits certain reports and information to the congressional
defense committees.

The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision
(sec. 121) would direct the Secretary of the Navy to take
whatever steps the Secretary deems appropriate and are
available to the Navy to ensure that the Navy retains the
option of buying more EA-18G aircraft, if further analysis of
whether to expand the airborne electronic attack (AEA) force
structure indicates the Navy should include more EA-18G
aircraft in carrier air wings. The provision would also
authorize the Navy, subject to appropriation, to use $75.0
million in funds authorized and appropriated in fiscal year
2014 for advance procurement funds of F/A-18 E/F aircraft for
the purpose of retaining such an option. The Senate committee-
reported bill also recommended an increase of $25.0 million in
section 4101 for those purposes.
The House bill contained no similar provision. The House
bill recommended an increase of $450.0 million in section 4101
to purchase additional EA-18G aircraft.
The agreement includes the Senate provision with an
amendment that would exclude language regarding the use of
prior year funds. We also include a recommendation for
additional funding for EA-18G aircraft elsewhere in this Act.
Subtitle D--Air Force Programs
Prohibition on availability of funds for retirement of MQ-1 Predator

(sec. 133)
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 132) that would
prohibit obligation or expenditure of fiscal year 2015 funds to
retire A-10 aircraft. The provision would also require the
Comptroller General of the United States to conduct a study
evaluating Air Force aircraft used, as of the date of the
study, to conduct close-air support missions.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained a similar
provision (sec. 134) that would prohibit obligation or
expenditure of fiscal year 2015 funds to make significant
changes to manning levels with respect to any A-10 aircraft
squadrons, or to retire, prepare to retire, or place in storage
any A-10 aircraft.
The agreement includes the Senate provision with an
amendment that would allow the Secretary of Defense to
authorize the Secretary of the Air Force to move up to 36 A-10
in the active component primary aircraft inventory (PAI) status
to back up flying status, or back up aircraft inventory (BAI)
status, for the duration of fiscal year 2015, 30 days after
certifying to the congressional defense committees that he has:
(1) Received the results of an independent assessment
by the Director of the Office of Cost Assessment and
Program Evaluation of alternative ways to provide
manpower to maintain the Air Force fighter fleet and
field Joint Strike Fighter aircraft in fiscal year

provision.
The agreement includes the House provision with an
amendment that would prevent retirement until a period of 60
days has elapsed following the date on which the Secretary of
Defense submits to the congressional defense committees an
assessment of the costs and benefits of the proposed divestment
or transfer.
Limitation on availability of funds for transfer of Air Force C-130H
and C-130J aircraft (sec. 138)
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1049) that would
prevent the Secretary of the Air Force from removing C-130
aircraft from a unit of the regular or reserve components of
the Air Force that is tasked with the modular airborne
firefighting system (MAFFS) mission, or from a unit that is
formally associated with a unit that has the MAFFS mission,
until the Secretary of the Air Force certified that MAFFS
mission would not be negatively affected by the removal of such
aircraft. The House bill also contained a provision (sec. 1067)
that would require the Secretary of the Air Force to submit a

plan for basing C-130H and C-130J aircraft, and would require
that, for units with special capabilities such as the MAFFS
mission, a certification that those special missions would not
be negatively affected by the proposed transfers before making
the transfers.
We do not intend that the prohibition on transfer of C-130
aircraft apply to movements of aircraft associated with normal
Air Force management of the C-130 fleet, such as transferring
aircraft between units and depots in conjunction with
conducting regular maintenance or upgrades of the aircraft.
Limitation on availability of funds for transfer of Air Force KC-135
tankers (sec. 139)

We believe that the Department should review its overall
missile portfolio and propose more economical procurement
strategies in the fiscal year 2016 budget request, including
the use of multiyear procurements, block buys, and contracts
with one or more years of priced options.
Procurement of advanced threat emitters
A proposed amendment to the Senate committee-reported bill
(amendment number 3575) contained a provision that would
express the sense of Congress on the procurement of advanced
threat emitters, their importance in providing vital electronic
warfare training, and need for the Air Force to prioritize its
acquisition.
The House bill contained no similar provision.
The agreement does not include this provision.
We recognize the Joint Threat Emitter system provides vital
electronic warfare training for combat aircrews by simulating
the multiple threat scenarios of a hostile integrated air
defense system. We also note that the system of threat emitters
currently in use on U.S. military ranges has deficiencies.
These deficiencies place our forces at risk and could
jeopardize mission success. We believe the Department of
Defense and the services should consider prioritizing and
accelerating the acquisition and fielding of a modernized
system of threat emitters beyond the level requested in the
President's fiscal year 2015 budget.
Sense of Congress regarding the OCONUS basing of the F-35A
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 142) that would
express the sense of Congress, regarding the Outside the
Continental United States (OCONUS) basing of the F-35A, that
the Secretary of the Air Force should place emphasis on the
benefits derived from sites that:
(1) Are capable of hosting fighter-based bilateral
and multilateral training opportunities with
international partners;
(2) Have sufficient airspace and range capabilities
and capacity to meet the training requirements;
(3) Have existing facilities to support personnel,
operations, and logistics associated with the flying
mission;
(4) Have limited encroachment that would adversely
impact training or operations; and
(5) Minimize the overall construction and operational
costs.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar
provision.
The agreement does not include this provision.
We are aware that the Air Force uses a deliberate strategic
basing process to make its basing decisions. In October 2013,
the Air Force announced the list of bases in the Pacific Air
Force command being considered to beddown the first F-35A
squadrons OCONUS. In August 2014, the Air Force announced that
the Secretary of the Air Force had chosen Eielson Air Force
Base, Alaska as the preferred alternative to host the first F-
35A squadrons in the Pacific Air Forces area of responsibility.
We support the Air Force's strategic basing process and
believe that it provides a thorough, consistent, and
transparent process for basing decisions. When the Air Force is
evaluating candidate bases for new units and missions, we
believe that the Air Force should use criteria-based analysis
and military judgment at each location, to include enterprise,
mission, capacity, costs and environment. For different
circumstances, such as OCONUS basing, the Air Force may also
need to include additional criteria, such as notification of a
host nation partner.
Title II--Research, Development, Test, and Evaluation
BUDGET ITEMS
Strategic Capabilities Office
The budget request included $250.0 million in research,
development, test and evaluation, defense-wide for the
activities of the Strategic Capabilities Office (SCO).
The House bill would decrease funding for SCO by $30.0
million.
The Senate committee-reported bill would decrease funding
for SCO by $15.0 million.
The agreement reduces the budget request for SCO by $10.0
million in PE 63289D8Z and $20.0 million in PE 64250D8Z.
We are aware of and supportive of the valuable work that
the SCO has been conducting. Though the efforts of SCO are
still in early stages and have only recently begun to produce
some tangible capabilities, we see promising concepts being
supported by investment. We do have concerns that SCO projects
are being scaled at a rate that is not commensurate with the
results that have been shown so far. We believe that the SCO
could benefit from senior level guidance and oversight to
ensure that promising ideas are more closely tied to the needs,
requirements and priorities of the combatant commands.
Additionally, for those programs in Advanced Capability and
Prototyping (6.4) budget activity, we also believe the programs
need to have an estimated cost to field the capability, if the
demonstration proves successful, to support transition planning
activities.
We also believe that senior level involvement is necessary
to help coordinate SCO efforts with other research and
development activities of the Department of Defense (DOD),
especially within the office of the Under Secretary of Defense
for Acquisition, Technology and Logistics and the Defense
Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA). In a budget
constrained environment, better coordination of SCO efforts
with the entire research and development enterprise, including
the various communities of interest established by the
Assistant Secretary of Defense for Research and Engineering,
will enhance SCO's effectiveness by leveraging the funding and
expertise of the entire of the research enterprise.
Additionally, we understand that leadership within DOD is
looking at establishing a charter for, and changing the
organizational reporting structure of, the SCO. We believe that
DOD should examine a range of options to determine where to
position and how to resource the office. We fully expect DOD to
inform the congressional defense committees on any significant
changes to SCO before any changes are formalized.
High Energy Liquid Laser Area Defense System
The budget request included $386.9 million in PE 63766E for
network-centric warfare technology.
The House bill would approve the budget request.
The Senate committee-reported bill would decrease funding
for the High Energy Liquid Laser Area Defense System (HELLADS)
within that line item by $20.0 million.
The agreement authorizes the budget request for this item.
We note that the HELLADS has been funded by the Defense
Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) for over 10 years,
with over $200 million expended to date. We note that a planned
fiscal year 2015 technology demonstration will mark the end of
DARPA's investment in technical development. We are concerned
that the program still has no identified commitments for a
transition pathway to a service program for further development
or demonstration. At this point, we believe that even a
successful demonstration of HELLADS capabilities in fiscal year
2015 is not likely to result in any meaningful transition of
the capability to a service program. Therefore, we direct the
Assistant Secretary of Defense for Research and Engineering,
acting through the congressionally-mandated Joint Technology
Office for High Energy Lasers, to review current DARPA-service
plans for transition of the HELLADS capabilities and provide a
report on the plans, schedules, and identified resources to
support integration and transition into any service-led
directed energy efforts, no later than March 1, 2015.
Subtitle A--Authorization of Appropriations
Authorization of appropriations (sec. 201)
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 201) authorizing
appropriations for fiscal year 2015 for the use of the
Department of Defense for research, development, test, and
evaluation, as specified in the funding table in section 4201.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained an identical
provision (sec. 201).
The agreement includes this provision.
Subtitle B--Program Requirements, Restrictions, and Limitations
Modification of authority for prizes for advanced technology
achievements (sec. 211)
The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision
(sec. 211) that would modify the authority of the Secretary of
Defense to hold prize and challenge competitions to spur
advanced technology achievements.
The House bill contained no similar provision.
The agreement includes this provision.
In the recently announced ``Better Buying Power (BBP) 3.0''
initiative, Undersecretary of Defense for Acquisition,
Technology and Logistics Frank Kendall called for improved
communication between industry and the government in order to
increase the productivity of both government and industry
research efforts, including Independent Research and
Development performed by industry. We recognize the merits of
such a suggestion, as well as the challenges in developing an
effective communications process that is able to be adaptive
enough to protect intellectual property and data rights, and
protect both industry and government partners from bid protests
when informed interest shifts to informed acquisition.
We note that prize authority has historically been used to
good effect at aligning the government's technology and
research goals with the resources, ambition, and innovation of
the private sector. From the Longitude Prize in 1714 that
resulted in improved ship navigation capabilities, to the
Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency Grand Challenge in
2005 which resulted in demonstrating autonomous ground vehicle
navigation, government prize authority has demonstrated the
ability to bring together government and industry funding,
technology and expertise to produce revolutionary new
technological capabilities. While we do not believe that such
prizes can replace the kind of coordination and dialogue sought
in BBP 3.0, it is an important tool in the toolbox for
demonstrating the benefits of such a process for both the
government and industry.
Modification of Manufacturing Technology Program (sec. 212)
The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision
(sec. 212) that would clarify that the Under Secretary of
Defense for Acquisition, Technology, and Logistics or his
designees should conduct oversight of the Joint Defense
Manufacturing Technology Panel, which coordinates manufacturing
technology and research programs for the Department of Defense.
Further, the provision reduces the frequency of mandated
updates to the Manufacturing Technology program's strategic
plan, to better synchronize this effort with the Quadrennial
Defense Review process.
The House bill contained no similar provision.
The agreement includes this provision.
We intend that the next strategic plan be developed in
coordination with the Quadrennial Defense Review currently
scheduled for 2018.
Revision of requirement for acquisition programs to maintain defense
research facility records (sec. 213)
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 222) that would
modify the requirements to subsection (b) of section 2364 of
title 10, United States Code, to eliminate the need for
acquisition programs to maintain a record of all issue papers
from a defense research facility related to said acquisition
programs.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained a similar
provision (sec. 806).
The agreement includes the House provision with a technical
amendment.
Treatment by Department of Defense Test Resource Management Center of
significant modifications to test and evaluation facilities and
resources (sec. 214)
The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision
(sec. 214) that would direct the Secretary of the Army and the
Director of the Test Resource Management Center (TRMC) to
report on significant reductions or consolidations of major
test facilities.
The House bill contained no similar provision.
The agreement includes a provision which would modify the
authorities and duties of the Director, TRMC, to review and
report on significant expansion, divestment, consolidation or
curtailment of activities within the test and evaluation
facilities and resources of the Major Range and Test Facility
Base.
Revision to the service requirement under the Science, Mathematics, and
Research for Transformation defense education program (sec.
215)
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 221) that would
modify the options for the service obligation requirement
within the Science, Mathematics, and Research for
Transformation (SMART) program to also include employment with
a public or private sector entity or organization outside the
Department of Defense (DOD), if the Secretary of Defense
determines that the employment would provide a benefit to the
Department of Defense (DOD).
The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar
provision.
The agreement includes the House provision with an
amendment to clarify that the Secretary should make significant
efforts to place SMART scholars into DOD positions, prior to
placement in non-DOD positions.
Limitation on availability of funds for armored multi-purpose vehicle
program (sec. 216)
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 212) that would
limit the availability of funds for the armored multi-purpose
vehicle until the Secretary of the Army submits a report on
plans for the replacement of M113 armored personnel carriers in
formations outside of its combat brigades.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar
provision.
The agreement includes the House provision.
Limitation on availability of funds for Unmanned Carrier-Launched
Airborne Surveillance and Strike system (sec. 217)
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 213) that would
prevent obligation of any Navy research and development funds
for the Unmanned Carrier-Launched Airborne Surveillance and
Strike (UCLASS) to award a contract for the air vehicle segment
until the Secretary of Defense submits to the congressional
defense committees a report that: (1) certifies that a review
of the requirements for air vehicle segments of the unmanned
carrier-launched surveillance and strike system is complete;
and (2) includes the results of such review.
The House report accompanying H.R. 4435 (H. Rept. 113-446)
of the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2015
indicated that the current UCLASS air vehicle segment
requirements would not address the emerging anti-access/area
denial (A2/AD) challenges to U.S. power projection that
originally motivated creation of what became the Navy UCLASS
program. In particular, the House report indicated that a
disproportionate emphasis in the requirements on unrefueled
endurance to enable continuous intelligence, surveillance, and
reconnaissance (ISR) support to the carrier strike group (CSG),
would result in an aircraft with too little survivability and
too small an internal weapons payload capability.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar
provision.
The agreement includes this provision with an amendment
that would require the Navy to submit a report with the budget
for fiscal year 2017 that would:
(1) Identify the cost and performance trade-offs the
Navy made in arriving at the set of requirements for
the UCLASS air vehicle segment to include strike
capability in an A2/AD environment;
(2) Address the derivation of requirements for the
overall composition of the future carrier air wing,
including any contribution to CSG ISR capability from
non-carrier air wing forces, such as the MQ-4C Triton;
(3) Specify how the Navy derived the plan for
achieving the best mix of capabilities for the CSG air
wing to conduct representative joint ISR-strike
campaigns in the 2030 timeframe, including how the
UCLASS, F-35C, EA-18G, and the aircraft that is
proposed to replace the F/A-18E/F (FA-XX) would
contribute to overall capability, including in an A2/AD
threat environment;
(4) Define the UCLASS program's acquisition strategy,
and provide the justification for any tailoring of that
strategy that deviates from that of a traditional
program, consistent with DoDI 5000.02 policy; and
(5) Establish a formal acquisition program cost and
schedule baseline, to allow the Navy to track unit
costs, and provide regular reports to Congress on cost,
schedule and performance progress.
We believe that the Secretary of Defense may submit a
report that certifies the current set of requirements and can
proceed with the current program, or could decide to revisit
the current UCLASS requirements and conduct another review of
costs and capabilities. The Navy may have made an appropriate
set of trade-offs between costs and capabilities in deriving a
set of requirements for UCLASS, but those trade-offs should be
evaluated in the context of the overall CSG capability, not on
the basis of individual capabilities of weapons systems or an
unconstrained budget.
Limitation on Availability of Funds for airborne reconnaissance systems
(sec. 218)
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 214) that would
limit the obligation or expenditure of funds authorized by this
Act to not more than 25 percent for the imaging and targeting
support of airborne reconnaissance systems, until the Secretary
of the Air Force delivers a report to the appropriate
congressional committees. The elements of the report would
include a detailed plan regarding the use of such funds for
fiscal year 2015, and a strategic plan for the funding of
advanced airborne reconnaissance technologies supporting manned
and unmanned systems.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar
provision.
The agreement includes the House provision with an
amendment that would modify the reporting requirement for the
use of funds for fiscal year 2015.
We believe the plan should identify the activities and
projects that the Air Force is investing in. We note the
restriction on funds only applies to the funds for the imaging
and targeting support project within Program Element 35206F. We
believe the strategic plan should identify the broad objectives
that the project should be focused on accomplishing over the
course of the future year defense program, and may be provided
to the appropriate Congressional committees in the form of a
briefing.
Limitation on availability of funds for retirement of Joint
Surveillance and Target Attack Radar Systems aircraft (sec.
219)
The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision
(sec. 213) that would that would prohibit the Air Force from
retiring or preparing to retire operational Joint Surveillance
and Target Attack Radar System (JSTARS) aircraft until the
Secretary of the Air Force submits a report detailing various
aspect of the Air Force's plan to replace the current JSTARS
aircraft, including an assessment of the cost and schedule of
developing and fielding a new aircraft and radar system
employing mature technology to replace the current JSTARS
aircraft.
The House bill contained no similar provision.
The agreement includes the Senate provision with an
amendment that would clarify that the assessment of cost and
schedule of developing and fielding a new aircraft and radar
system would be for a program that would deliver two
replacement aircraft to the JSTARS aircraft operating base by
fiscal year 2019.
Subtitle C--Reports
Reduction in frequency of reporting by Deputy Assistant Secretary of
Defense for Systems Engineering (sec. 221)
The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision
(sec. 222) that would reduce the reporting requirement related
to the systems engineering activities of the Office of the
Secretary of Defense.
The House bill contained no similar provision.
The agreement includes this provision.
Independent assessment of interagency biodefense research and
development (sec. 222)
A proposed amendment to the Senate committee-reported bill
(amendment number 3435) contained a provision that would
require a study of bureaucratic and policy barriers to the
efficient execution of interagency research and development
activities related to biodefense.
The House bill contained no similar provision.
The agreement includes this provision.
Briefing on modeling and simulation technological and industrial base
in support of requirements of Department of Defense (sec. 223)
A proposed amendment to the Senate committee-reported bill
(amendment number 3848) contained a provision that would direct
an independent study of the United States modeling and
simulation industrial base.
The House bill contained no similar provision.
The agreement includes the Senate provision with an
amendment that would require a briefing to the Committees on
Armed Services of the Senate and House of Representatives that
updates the report on the Department of Defense Modeling and
Simulation (M&S) Technological and Industrial Base that was
submitted to Congress on March 11, 2011. This report was
required by section 1059 of the National Defense Authorization
Act for Fiscal Year 2010 (Public Law 111-84) and describes
current and planned efforts to support and enhance the defense
M&S technological and industrial base.
Subtitle D--Other Matters
Modification to requirement for contractor cost-sharing in pilot
program to include technology protection features during
research and development of certain defense systems (sec. 231)
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 223) that would
amend section 243(b) of the Ike Skelton National Defense
Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2011 (Public Law 111-383) by
striking ``at least one half of the cost of such activities''
and inserting ``an appropriate share of the cost of such
activities, as determined by the Secretary.''
The Senate committee-reported bill contained a similar
provision (sec. 233).
The agreement includes the Senate provision.
Pilot program on assignment to Defense Advanced Research Projects
Agency of private sector personnel with critical research and
development expertise (sec. 232)
The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision
(sec. 231) that would authorize the Director of the Defense
Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) to carry out a pilot
program to employ up to 5 individuals employed by the private
sector on rotational assignments to lead research or
development projects of the Agency.
The House bill contained no similar provision.
The agreement includes the Senate provision with an
amendment that authorizes the pilot program with additional
guidance to manage potential conflicts of interest that may
arise during execution.
Pilot program on enhancement of preparation of dependents of members of
Armed Forces for careers in science, technology, engineering,
and mathematics (sec. 233)
The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision
(sec. 222) that would authorize a pilot program to enhance the
science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM)
educational opportunities for children of servicemembers.
The House bill contained no similar provision.
The agreement includes the Senate provision with an
amendment to clarify the types of students, teachers, and
classrooms on which the authorized activities may focus.
We believe there is a national security imperative to
support the development of a strong, vibrant STEM workforce
that can support Department of Defense (DOD) needs. A Council
on Foreign Relations report from March 2012 titled ``U.S.
Education Reform and National Security'', states the U.S.
``shortage of skilled human capital both inflates personnel
costs and strains the military's ability to develop and deploy
technologies that can deter sophisticated adversaries.'' It
further states, ``Many U.S. generals caution that too many new
enlistees cannot read training manuals for technologically
sophisticated equipment. A former head of the Army's Training
and Doctrine Command said that the lack of fully qualified
young people was ``an imminent and menacing threat to our
national security.''
DOD has a critical requirement to maintain an experienced,
high quality, technical workforce. To achieve this, it is
necessary to engage at the earliest stages of the STEM
pipeline. We note that some research indicates that achieving
certain math skills by the eighth grade is a critical
determinant for success in STEM fields. For that reason, the
committee believes that it is important for DOD to support K-12
STEM education programs, as that supports an increased pipeline
of qualified individuals that may pursue university degrees in
STEM fields. Excellence in STEM fields is important for the
general economic health and competitiveness of the nation, but
due to the special security requirements of DOD employees, we
believe that DOD's STEM workforce needs are especially acute
and will only continue to grow in the future.
Additionally, we note that DOD has a responsibility to
ensure proper education is available to military children, and
that it is in DOD's interest to promote education programs that
benefit both military children and our future national security
workforce. We believe that this provision's focus on the
communities support for the children of military dependents
also increases the likelihood that such STEM-enabled students
will go on to national security careers, including military
service.
Sense of Congress on helicopter health and usage monitoring system of
the Army (sec. 234)
A proposed amendment to the Senate committee-reported bill
(amendment number 3567) contained a provision that would
express the sense of the Senate on helicopter health and usage
monitoring systems.
The House bill contained no similar provision.
The agreement includes the Senate provision with a
technical amendment.
Legislative Provisions Not Adopted
Preliminary design review of presidential aircraft recapitalization
program
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 211) that would
require the Secretary of the Air Force to complete a
preliminary design review of the presidential aircraft
recapitalization (PAR) program prior to receiving a milestone B
approval from the Milestone Decision Authority.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar
provision.
The agreement does not include this provision.
We understand that the Air Force plans to develop the PAR
acquisition strategy, complete milestone B documentation,
continue market research, and develop the Systems Requirements
Document through fiscal year 2015. We expect the Air Force to
lockdown requirements prior to contract award to ensure the
technical integrity of the PAR program prior to Milestone B and
to minimize long-term program risks.
Report on thermal injury prevention
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1068) that would
require a report on prevention of thermal injuries to occupants
of military vehicles that result from over matching ballistic
threats.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar
provision.
The agreement does not include this provision.
We are interested to learn how the Army is aggressively
investigating innovative technologies to prevent or mitigate
the risks of thermal injury to occupants of combat and tactical
vehicles that can result from over matching ballistic threats.
Accordingly, we direct the Secretary of the Army to provide,
not later than March 31, 2015, a briefing to the Committees on
Armed Services of the Senate and House of Representatives on
the Army's related technology research and development plans
and investment strategies for thermal injury prevention, as
well as occupant centric survivability systems in current and
future combat and tactical vehicles.
Title III--Operation and Maintenance
BUDGET ITEM
Special Operations Forces suicide prevention initiatives
The budget request included $67.0 million in Operation and
Maintenance, defense-wide, to support the United States Special
Operations Command (SOCOM) Preservation of the Force and
Families (POTFF) program.
The House bill would transfer $23.3 million to the Defense
Health Program's SOCOM Behavioral Health and Warrior Care
Management Program.
The Senate committee-reported bill would approve the budget
request.
The agreement includes a transfer of $14.8 million to the
SOCOM Behavioral Health and Warrior Care Management Program for
additional behavioral health programs and a transfer of $4.0
million to the Defense Suicide Prevention Office to implement
recommendations that result from a review of Department of
Defense (DOD) efforts to prevent suicide among members of
Special Operations Forces (SOF) and their families, as directed
elsewhere in this Act. In addition, the agreement includes the
full requested amount of $7.2 million for the Psychological
Performance Program within POTFF.
We recognize the tremendous sacrifices made by the men and
women within SOF and their families after more than 12 years of
war. We note with concern that suicide rates for SOF have
continued to increase since calendar year 2010, and that for
the past 2 years, suicide rates within SOF have surpassed those
of the military services.
We support the efforts of SOCOM to improve training and
awareness related to suicide and plans to expand a pilot peer-
to-peer training program. We also support the many service-
provided and DOD-wide suicide prevention programs that SOCOM
has utilized. While DOD, SOCOM, and the services have taken
positive action to address SOF suicide rates, we believe that
more must be done to reinforce targeted suicide prevention
efforts in addition to holistic SOF resiliency programs.
Subtitle A--Authorization of Appropriations
Authorization of appropriations (sec. 301)
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 301) authorizing
appropriations for fiscal year 2015 for the use of the Armed
Forces and other activities and agencies of the Department of

Subtitle B--Energy and Environment
Elimination of fiscal year limitation on prohibition of payment of
fines and penalties from the Environmental Restoration Account,
Defense (sec. 311)
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 311) that would
eliminate the fiscal year limitations on the prohibition of
paying fines and penalties from the Environmental Restoration
Account, defense, unless the fine or penalty arose out of an
activity funded by that account or was specifically authorized
by law.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar
provision.
The agreement includes this provision.
Nothing in this provision should be construed to change the
Department of Defense's obligations to pay penalties or fines,
and to do so in a timely fashion.
Method of funding for cooperative agreements under the Sikes Act (sec.
312)
The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision
(sec. 311) that would amend subsection (b) of section 103a of
the Sikes Act (section 670c-1 of title 16, United States Code)
to allow for lump sum payments for cooperative agreements to
cover the future costs of activities provided for under the
agreements.
The House bill contained no similar provision.
The agreement includes the provision.
Report on prohibition of disposal of waste in open-air burn pits (sec.
313)
The House bill included a provision (Sec. 312) that would
require the combatant commanders to submit a biannual
certification to the Committees on Armed Services of the Senate
and the House of Representatives that covered waste under the
jurisdiction of the commander has not been disposed of in
violation of the regulations set forth in section 317 of the
National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2010 (Public
Law 111-84). This section also prescribes additional details
required in instances of noncompliance.
The Senate committee-reported bill did not contain a
similar provision.
The agreement includes the House provision with an
amendment to direct the Secretary of Defense to provide a
report to the congressional defense committees regarding the
Department of Defense's (DOD) compliance with applicable Public
Law and DOD instructions regarding the disposal of covered
waste in burn pits. The provision also requires the Comptroller
General of the United States to provide an assessment of the
report submitted by the Secretary.
We note with concern that there are a number of instances
where compliance with the DOD instructions and public law, with
respect to the disposal of covered waste in burn pits, has been
called into question. It is our expectation that the Secretary
will use this report as an opportunity to address any gaps and
take required action, as necessary and appropriate, to ensure
education of and strict compliance with the prohibitions on the
disposal of covered waste in burn pits.
Business case analysis of any plan to design, refurbish, or construct a
biofuel refinery (sec. 314)
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 317) that would
require the Department of Defense to obtain a congressional
authorization before entering into a contract for the planning,
design, refurbishing, or construction of a biofuels refinery.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar
provision.
The agreement includes the House provision with an
amendment that no later than 30 days before entering into a
contract for the planning, design, refurbishment, or
construction of a biofuels refinery, the Secretary of Defense
or service secretary concerned, shall submit to the
congressional defense committees a business case analysis
regarding their intended plan.
Environmental restoration at former Naval Air Station Chincoteague,
Virginia (sec. 315)
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 320) that would
permit the Secretary of Defense to undertake an environmental
restoration project at Wallops Flight Facility, Virginia.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained a similar
provision (sec. 312).
The agreement includes the Senate provision with a
clarifying amendment.
We note that the Wallops Flight Facility, Virginia includes
the Naval Aviation Ordnance Test Station, Virginia. We also
note that the Secretary of Defense may undertake this
environmental restoration project at Wallops Flight Facility,
Virginia, with regard to pollutants or contaminants that are
solely attributable to Department of Defense activities while
the property was under the administrative jurisdiction of the
Secretary of the Navy.
Limitation on availability of funds for procurement of drop-in fuels
(sec. 316)
The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision
(sec. 313) that would prohibit Department of Defense (DOD)
funds to be used for bulk purchases of drop-in fuel for
operational purposes, unless the cost of that drop-in fuel is
cost competitive with traditional fuel, subject to a national
security waiver.
The House bill contained no similar provision.
The agreement includes the Senate provision with a
clarifying amendment that would factor in the fully-burdened
cost of fuel.
We note that this provision adds a 30 day notice to the
congressional defense committees prior to the purchase of bulk
drop-in fuels for operational purposes, if the fully-burdened
delivered cost is 10 percent over the fully-burdened market
price of traditional fuels available for the same purpose. We
also note that large-scale demonstrations count as operational
purposes and are covered under this limitation. We expect DOD
to not use a unique federal subsidy to buy or purchase down the
cost of fuel so it falls below the 10 percent threshold.
Decontamination of a portion of former bombardment area on island of
Culebra, Puerto Rico (sec. 317)
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 2818) that would
express the sense of Congress that the statutory prohibition on
environmental remediation on the island of Culebra, Puerto Rico
is a unique anomaly and would lift the statutory restriction
for environmental remediation for areas having regular public
access by amending section 204(c) of the Military Construction
Authorization Act of 1974 (Public Law 93-166).
The Senate committee-reported bill contained a similar
provision (sec. 316) that would express the sense of Congress
that certain portions of the island of Culebra, Puerto Rico
should be available for safe public recreational use and would
lift the statutory restriction for environmental remediation
for certain identified areas by amending section 204(c) of the
Military Construction Authorization Act of 1974 (Public Law 93-
166), as well as modifying the restrictions contained within
the quitclaim deed.
The agreement includes the Senate provision.
Alternative fuel automobiles (sec. 318)
A proposed amendment to the Senate committee-reported bill
(3911) contained a provision that would create incentives for
the development of alternative dual-fuel vehicles.
The House bill contained no similar provision.
The agreement includes the Senate provision with modifying
amendments.
Subtitle C--Logistics and Sustainment
Modification of quarterly readiness reporting requirement (sec. 321)
The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision
(sec. 322) that would amend section 482 of title 10, United
States Code, to update and streamline the Quarterly Readiness
Report to Congress (QRRC).
The House bill contained no similar provision.
The agreement includes the Senate provision with a
clarifying amendment.
We expect the timeliness and delivery of the QRRC to
Congress to improve significantly given the efficiencies
included in the bill. We note that the executive summaries and
narratives--which are derived from the massive data inputs
submitted by the military services, defense agencies, and
combatant commands--currently captured in the QRRC are very
helpful in the exercise of congressional oversight
responsibilities.
We strongly urge the Department of Defense (DOD) to move
the information captured in Supplement Two of the QRRC to Annex
B in order to avoid duplication and maximize efficiency. We
also strongly urge DOD to remove Supplement One from future
QRRCs as the information therein is readily available in the
public domain.
Additional requirement for strategic policy on prepositioning of
materiel and equipment (sec. 322)
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 321) that would
amend the strategic policy on prepositioned materiel and
equipment required by section 2229(a) of title 10, United
States Code, to ensure newly established crisis response
elements are considered when developing goals, assessing
challenges, and synchronizing requirements.

provision.
The agreement includes this provision.
Elimination of authority of Secretary of the Army to abolish arsenals
(sec. 323)
The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision
(sec. 323) that would amend section 4532 of title 10, United
States Code, the Arsenal Act, and eliminate the ability of the
Secretary of the Army to abolish any U.S. arsenal considered to
be unnecessary.
The House bill contained no similar provision.
The agreement includes the Senate provision with an
amendment that would eliminate the ability of the Secretary of
the Army to abolish any U.S. arsenal considered to be
unnecessary.
We note that it shall be the goal of the Secretary of the
Army, in managing the workload of the arsenals, to maintain
critical capabilities and ensure cost efficiency and technical
competence in peacetime, while preserving the ability to
provide an effective and timely response to mobilizations,
national defense contingency situations, and other emergent
requirements.
We also note that the critical capabilities needed by the
Army are currently reflected in the Report to Congress on
Critical Manufacturing Capabilities and Capacities dated August
2013. We recognize that they may change over time.
Modification of annual reporting requirement related to prepositioning
of materiel and equipment (sec. 324)
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 322) that would
modify the yearly reporting requirement in section 321 of the
National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2014 (Public
Law 113-66) to continue through 2017, for a total of four
reports over 4 years.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained a similar
provision (sec. 321) that would amend section 2229(cc) of title
10, United States Code to sunset after 3 years the Comptroller
General of the United States' annual review of the Department
of Defense's progress in implementing its strategic policy and
plan for its prepositioned stocks.
The agreement includes the Senate provision.
Subtitle D--Reports
Repeal of annual report on Department of Defense operation and
financial support for military museums (sec. 331)
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 331) that would
repeal section 489 of title 10, United States Code, which
requires the Secretary of Defense to submit annually to
Congress a report on Department of Defense operation and
financial support for military museums.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained an identical
provision (sec. 331).
The agreement includes this provision.
Army assessment of regionally aligned forces (sec. 332)
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 333) that would
require the Secretary of the Army to submit a report on the
activities, lessons learned, and future plans for regionally
aligned forces.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar
provision.
The agreement includes the House provision with an
amendment that would clarify the required elements of the
report.
Subtitle E--Limitations and Extensions of Authority
Limitation on authority to enter into a contract for the sustainment,
maintenance, repair, or overhaul of the F117 engine (sec. 341)
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 341) that would
prevent the Secretary of the Air Force from entering into a
subsequent contract for the sustainment, maintenance, repair,
and overhaul of the F117 engine until the Under Secretary of
Defense for Acquisition, Technology and Logistics certifies to
the congressional defense committees that the Secretary of the
Air Force has structured the contract in such a way that
provides the Secretary required insight into all aspects of
F117 component and subcomponent historical usage, cost,
service-life, and supply chain management data sufficient to
determine that the Secretary is paying a fair and reasonable
price for F117 sustainment as compared to the PW2000
commercial-derivative sustainment price in the private sector.
This provision would also allow the Secretary to waive this
limitation if the Secretary determines such waiver is in the
interests of national security.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar
provision.
The agreement includes this provision with an amendment
that would modify the basis upon which the Under Secretary
would certify that the Secretary of the Air Force has obtained
data sufficient to determine that the Secretary of the Air
Force is paying a fair and reasonable price for F117
sustainment, maintenance, repair, or overhaul as compared to
the PW2000 commercial-derivative engine sustainment price for
sustainment, maintenance, repair, or overhaul in the private
sector.
Limitation on establishment of regional Special Operations Forces
Coordination Centers (sec. 342)
The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision
(sec. 342) that would prohibit the obligation or expenditure of
funds authorized for fiscal year 2015 to establish Regional
Special Operations Forces Coordination Centers (RSCC) by U.S.
Special Operations Command (SOCOM).
The House bill contained no similar provision.
The agreement includes this provision.
We note that the National Defense Authorization Act for
Fiscal Year 2014 (Public Law 113-66) included a similar
prohibition and required the Secretary of Defense, in
coordination with the Secretary of State, to submit a report on
the purpose, cost, and the authorities necessary for the
establishment of RSCCs. While the required report was submitted
on April 16, 2014, it left a number of questions unanswered
related to the long-term funding required to support RSCCs in
each geographic combatant command (GCC); the relative funding
that would be provided by SOCOM, the GCCs, and the host nation
or other participating nations; and coordination with other
engagement activities conducted by the GCCs and the Department
of State. Additionally, the report states that ``[p]roviding
confirmed and sustained out-year support is critical to
realizing the full potential of an RSCC.'' However, the report
also identifies additional legislative authorities that would
need to be addressed for such ``confirmed and sustained''
support to occur while indicating ``there are currently no
plans to seek these additional authorities.''
We believe issues related to funding and authorities need
to be resolved before RSCCs are established. We also believe
that SOCOM should focus its efforts and resources on supporting
regional special operations engagement activities that are
hosted in and led by partner nations. For example, we
understand that Colombia is working to establish the Centro
Regional de Estudios Avanzados de Seguridad (CREAS), that will,
among other things, bring together regional special operations
forces for educational, training, and other events. We note
that the provision described above would not prohibit support
to host-nation established regional special operations
coordination activities, like CREAS, provided they are
consistent with broader military-to-military objectives and
coordinated with the Department of State and relevant country
teams.
Limitation on transfer of MC-12 aircraft to United States Special
Operations Command (sec. 343)
The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision
(sec. 341) that would prohibit the transfer of MC-12 aircraft
from the Air Force to U.S. Special Operations Command (SOCOM)
for manned intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance until
the Assistant Secretary of Defense for Special Operations and
Low-Intensity Conflict, in coordination with the Commander,
SOCOM, provides the congressional defense committees with an
analysis and justification for such a transfer.
The House bill contained no similar provision.
The agreement includes the Senate provision with a
clarifying amendment.
We note that elsewhere in this Act the Department of
Defense is provided the authority to use the Counterterrorism
Partnership Fund (CTPF) to enhance counterterrorism activities
undertaken by the U.S. Armed Forces, including government-
owned, contractor-operated (GOCO) capabilities. We believe that
the CTPF would be an appropriate source of funding to support
additional GOCO operation of MC-12 aircraft in direct support
of the intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance
requirements of U.S. Special Operations Forces.
Further, we note that the budget request included funding
in Operation and Maintenance, defense-wide and Procurement,
defense-wide to support up to 13 aircraft to be flown by the
Air National Guard in support of SOCOM aviation foreign
internal defense and intelligence, surveillance, and
reconnaissance missions. We note that the limitation included
in this provision and the reduction in funding for MC-12
modifications contained elsewhere in the bill do not apply to
up to 13 aircraft to be flown by the Air National Guard in
support of SOCOM.
Subtitle F--Other Matters
Clarification of authority relating to provision of installation-
support services through intergovernmental support agreements
(sec. 351)
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 351) that would
transfer and redesignate section 2336 of title 10, United
States Code, to chapter 159 of such title. This section would
also define an intergovernmental support agreement and provide
other technical changes.
A proposed amendment to the Senate committee-reported bill
(amendment number 3831) contained a similar provision.
The agreement includes the House provision with an
amendment that would make clear that the secretary concerned
may enter into an intergovernmental support agreement
notwithstanding any other provision of law governing the award
of federal government contracts for goods and services and that
any contract awarded by the Federal Government or a state or
local government for installation-support services under an
intergovernmental support agreement must be awarded on a
competitive basis.
Management of conventional ammunition inventory (sec. 352)
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 353) that would
designate an authoritative database on conventional ammunition
and broaden the existing military service annual reporting
requirements on conventional ammunition.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained a similar
provision (sec. 1066) that would require the Comptroller
General of the United States to provide a briefing to the
congressional defense committees on the management of the
conventional ammunition demilitarization stockpile of the
Department of Defense (DOD) no later than April 30, 2015.
The agreement includes the House provision with an
amendment that would combine the two provisions.
We note that the preferred authoritative source of data for
tracking conventional ammunition inventories across DOD is the
National Level Ammunition Capability (NLAC). We also expect DOD
to issue guidance that ensures NLAC collects and is responsible
for disseminating accurate data in cooperation with other
service ammunition systems.
Legislative Provisions Not Adopted
Increase in funding for civil military programs
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 302) that would
increase funding for civil military programs by $55.0 million
over the budget request.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar
provision.
The agreement does not include this provision.
Exclusions from definition of `chemical substance' under Toxic
Substances Control Act and report on lead ammunition
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 313) that would
amend section 3(2)(B)(v) of the Toxic Substances Control Act
(15 U.S. C. 2602(2)(B)(v)) and require a report on costs
related to non-lead alternatives for small arms.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar
provision.
The agreement does not include this provision.
Exemption of Department of Defense from alternative fuel procurement
requirement
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 314) that would
amend section 526 of the Energy Independence and Security Act
of 2007 (P.L. 110-140) to exempt the Department of Defense from
the requirements related to contracts for alternative or
synthetic fuel in that section.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar
provision.
The agreement does not include the House provision.
Study on implementation of requirements for consideration of fuel
logistics support requirements in planning, requirements
development, and acquisition processes
The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision
(sec. 314) that would require the Secretary of Defense to
submit a report to the congressional defense committees no
later than 180 days after the enactment of this Act, on the
implementation of section 332 of the Duncan Hunter National
Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2009 (P.L. 110-417).
The House bill contained no similar provision.
The agreement does not include the Senate provision.
We direct the Secretary of Defense to submit a report to
the congressional defense committees, no later than 180 days
after the enactment of this Act, regarding how the Department
of Defense (DOD) is considering the operational impact of
energy logistics through energy supportability analysis,
including but not limited to those factors in section 332 of
the Duncan Hunter National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal
Year 2009 (P.L. 110-417).
We note that the report shall describe actions to date to
consider energy logistics support in the planning, requirements
development, and acquisition processes, including the following
elements: (1) A description of the process DOD is using to
ensure energy supportability has been analyzed and considered
during the requirements development and acquisition process;
(2) An assessment of how well the Services are implementing the
energy supportability analysis; (3) An assessment of how well
the Services have incorporated energy into their planning
processes; (4) An assessment of the extent to which the energy
security requirements of DOD are enhanced by incorporation of
section 332 in the requirements and acquisition processes; and
(5) recommendations for improvements to section 332 that would
enhance energy security and capability.
Comptroller General study of Department of Defense research and
development projects and investments to increase energy
security and meet energy goals requirements
The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision
(sec. 315) that would direct the Comptroller General of the
United States to conduct a review of Department of Defense
(DOD) research and development projects and investments to
increase energy security and meet renewable energy goals.
The House bill contained no similar provision.
The agreement does not include the provision.
We direct the Comptroller General to conduct a review of
the current DOD Annual Energy Management Report. At a minimum,
the review shall identify key gaps and shortfalls, if any, in
the report. The review shall also include a determination of
how the DOD has determined the costs and benefits of a sample
of five renewable energy projects per Service where the (1)
generating capacity of the projects is over one megawatt; (2)
projected life cycle costs of the projects as compared to power
generation from conventional sources; and (3) ensured energy
security at energy-remote installations in the 50 states and
the District of Columbia. The term ``energy-remote military
installations'' means military installations not connected to
an extensive electrical grid. The Comptroller General shall
report to the congressional defense committees no later than
one year after enactment of this Act.
Congressional notice of bulk purchase of alternative fuels for
operational use
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 315) that would
require the Secretary of Defense to notify the congressional
defense committees 60 days before the bulk purchase of
alternative fuels intended for operational use.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar
provision.
The agreement does not include the House provision.
Limitation on procurement of biofuels
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 316) that would
limit the Department of Defense's ability to purchase or
produce biofuels until the earlier of either the date on which
the Budget Control Act of 2011 (P.L. 112-25) is no longer in
effect, or the date on which the cost of biofuel is equal to
the cost of conventional fuels. This section would provide an
exception for biofuel test and certification and research and
development.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar
provision.
The agreement does not include the House provision.
Off-installation Department of Defense natural resources projects
compliance with integrated natural resource management plans
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 318) that would
amend the Sikes Act (section 670c-1 of title 16, United States
Code) to require that funds for the maintenance and improvement
of natural resources located off of a military installation or
State-owned National Guard installation only be used pursuant
to an approved integrated natural resources management plan.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar
provision.
The agreement does not include this provision.
Recommendation on Air Force energy conservation measures
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 319) that would
recommend the Secretary of the Air Force take action on energy
conservation measures.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar
provision.
The agreement does not include this provision.
We note that the Air Force has undertaken a number of
initiatives aimed at improving installation energy efficiency.
For example, the Air Force has used the Energy Conservation
Investment Program, Energy Savings Performance Contracts, and
technologies developed through Installation Energy Test Bed to
help meet their facility energy goals and mandates. We
encourage the Air Force to continue to make cost-effective
investments that enhance combat capability and demonstrate a
return on investment.
Prohibition on use of funds to implement certain climate change
assessments and reports
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 320A) that would
prohibit funds authorized by the fiscal year 2015 National
Defense Authorization Act to be used to implement the United
States Global Change Research Program National Climate
Assessment, the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change's
Fifth Assessment Report, the United Nation's Agenda 21
sustainable development plan, or the May 2013 Technical Update
of the Social Cost of Carbon for Regulatory Impact Analysis
Under Executive Order No. 12866.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar
provision.
The agreement does not include this provision.
Report on enduring requirements and activities currently funded through
amounts authorized to be appropriated for Overseas Contingency
Operations
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 332) that would
require a report on enduring requirements and activities
currently funded through amounts authorized to be appropriated
for Overseas Contingency Operations.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar
provision.
The agreement does not include this provision.
Report on impacts of funding reductions on military readiness
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 334) that would
require the Secretary of Defense (Comptroller) to report to the
congressional defense committees the readiness and cost impacts
of the reductions in operation and maintenance funding.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar
provision.
The agreement does not include the House provision.
We direct the Under Secretary of Defense (Comptroller) to
report or present a briefing to the congressional defense
committees no later than 60 days after the date of enactment of
this Act, on the readiness and cost impacts, both immediate and
long-term, for the military services, the Office of the
Secretary of Defense, the Joint Chiefs of Staff, and the
Defense Agencies, of the reductions in funding required in
section 4301 of this Act. The report shall include, but isn't
limited to, reductions in contracts for other services, impacts
to training and operations, contracts for facility sustainment,
restoration, and modernization, base operations, and any other
mission execution and effectiveness concerns.
Limitation on furlough of certain working-capital fund employees
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 342) that would:
limit the non-disciplinary furlough of working-capital fund
(WCF) employees as long as funds are available to pay for the
work performed; require 45 days advance congressional
notification of furloughs; and require Secretarial
certification that workload will not be transferred to any
other sector of the workforce.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar
provision.
The agreement does not include this provision.
We remain concerned about the negative effect furloughs of
WCF employees have on military readiness. The furlough of WCF
employees when monies and workload are available only delays
delivery times and raises rates, costing the taxpayer and
reducing military readiness. We understand that the Department
of Defense (DOD) faced budget cuts of $37.0 billion in 2013 due
to sequestration, and that as part of its response, it
furloughed all civilian employees. These furloughs may have
increased costs over the longer-term and caused schedule
delays, which negatively affected readiness. Therefore, we urge
the Secretary of Defense to consider both the short- and long-
term readiness impacts of these furloughs in making management
decisions concerning the DOD workforce. Finally, we expect the
Secretary to manage future budgets carefully, and to weigh all
competing variables when making workforce decisions.
Revised policy on ground combat and camouflage utility uniforms
The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision
(sec. 352) that would amend section 352 of the National Defense
Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2014 (P.L. 113-66) that
established a policy that the Secretary of Defense shall
eliminate the development and fielding of Armed Forces-specific
combat and camouflage utility uniforms and families of uniforms
for specific combat environments to be used by all members of
the Armed Forces.
The House bill contained no similar provision.
The agreement does not include the Senate provision.
We note that the guidance for the military services and
combatant commands required by section 351 of the National
Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2014 (P.L. 113-66) to
implement this policy is late and has not yet been delivered.
We also note that the implementation plan is also late and
necessary to ensure proper implementation of the Department of
Defense's guidance to establish and publish joint combat
uniform standards and performance criteria.
Sense of Congress on access to training ranges within United States
Pacific Command area of responsibility
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 352) that would
express the sense of Congress regarding access to training
ranges within U.S. Pacific Command's (PACOM) area of
responsibility (AOR).
The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar
provision.
The agreement does not include the provision.
We note that access to military training ranges is an
essential component of military readiness and that such access
is critical to maintaining the technical and operational
superiority of the Armed Forces. The 2014 Quadrennial Defense
Review states that United States forces in the Asia-Pacific
region ``will resume regular bilateral and multilateral
training exercises, pursue increased training opportunities to
improve capabilities and capacity of partner nations, as well
as support humanitarian, disaster relief, counterterrorism, and
other operations that contribute to the stability of the
region.'' While training ranges exist within PACOM's AOR, we
note that the tyranny of distance in the Asia-Pacific region
presents a number of challenges, including the transportation
of equipment and personnel to the various training ranges. We
believe the Department of Defense should take appropriate
action to ensure that members of the Armed Forces continue to
have reliable access to military training ranges and take
appropriate steps to improve accessibility to military training
areas within PACOM's AOR.
Southern sea otter military readiness areas
The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision
(sec. 353) that would have created southern sea otter military
readiness areas and repealed Public Law 99-625 (16 U.S.C. 1536
note).
The House bill contained no similar provision.
The agreement does not include this provision.
Title IV--Military Personnel Authorizations
Subtitle A--Active Forces

officer in an armed force with a mental health assessment prior
to enlistment or commissioning.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar
provision.
The agreement does not include this provision.

provision.

(sec. 532) that would authorize the Joint Special Operations
University to confer appropriate degrees upon certain
graduates.
The House bill contained no similar provision.
The agreement does not include this provision.
Minimum confinement period required for conviction of certain sex-
related offenses committed by members of the Armed Forces
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 536) that would
amend Article 56 of the Uniform Code of Military Justice
(section 856 of title 10, United States Code) to require that
the sentence of a member convicted by court-martial of
specified sex-related offenses include confinement for 2 years
or more, except as provided in Article 60 of the Uniform Code
of Military Justice (section 860 of title 10 United States
Code).

provision.
The agreement does not include this provision.
Additional enhancements of military department actions on sexual
assault prevention and response
The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision
(sec. 545(d)) that would include in the 8-day incident report

most recent climate assessments of the command or unit of a
suspect and the command or unit of the victim, and an
assessment of whether another command climate assessment should
be conducted.
The House bill contained no similar provision.
The agreement does not include this provision.
We believe that it is good practice to review command
climate surveys of the units of the victim and of the suspect
whenever there is an unrestricted report of sexual assault. The
survey of the unit of the victim should be reviewed to ensure
that the command climate is conducive to caring for the victim,
and the climate of the unit of the suspect should be reviewed
to determine whether the command climate contributed to the
alleged sexual assault.
Collaboration between the Department of Defense and the Department of
Justice in efforts to prevent and respond to sexual assault

to the operations of the Federal Government.

during the period beginning on December 7, 1941, and ending on
September 18, 2001, if the Secretary determines that the person
has not been previously recognized in an appropriate manner for
such participation.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar
provision.
The agreement does not include this provision.
On March 20, 2014, the Secretary of Defense directed a
comprehensive review of the Department of Defense's military
decorations and awards program to ensure that it provides
avenues to appropriately recognize the service, sacrifices, and
actions of military personnel. We request that this
comprehensive review include a review of the proposal for the
retroactive award of the Army Combat Action Badge.

recognize the dedicated service and ultimate sacrifice on
behalf of the United States of the 11 African-American soldiers
of the 333rd Field Artillery Battalion of the United States
Army who were massacred in Wereth, Belgium, during the Battle
of the Bulge on December 17, 1944.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar
provision.

We note that this is the 70th anniversary of the massacre
during the Battle of the Bulge, at Wereth, Belgium, and commend
the dedicated service and recognize the ultimate sacrifice of
these courageous men.
Report on Army review, findings, and actions pertaining to Medal of

days after the date of enactment of this Act.

provision.

members of the Armed Forces who made unrestricted reports of
sexual assault

require the Inspector General of the Department of Defense
(DOD) to conduct a review to: (1) identify all members of the
Armed Forces who, since January 1, 2002, were separated from
the Armed Forces after making an unrestricted report of sexual
assault; (2) determine the circumstances of and grounds for
each such separation; and (3) if an identified servicemember
was separated on the grounds of having a personality or
adjustment disorder, determine whether the separation was
carried out in compliance with DOD instructions, regulations,
directives, and policies.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar
provision.
The agreement does not include this provision.
Working group on Integrated Disability Evaluation System

Veterans Affairs casework brokered to other offices of the
Department

provide that if Department of Veterans Affairs casework is

under the Second Amendment of the Constitution of the United
States and, therefore, should be exempt from the District of
Columbia's restrictions on the possession of firearms.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar
provision.
The agreement does not include this provision.
Title VI--Compensation and Other Personnel Benefits
Subtitle A--Pay and Allowances
No fiscal year 2015 increase in basic pay for general and flag officers
(sec. 601)
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 602) that would
freeze the monthly basic pay for all general and flag officers,
including for those whose monthly basic pay is limited to the
rate of pay for level II of the Executive Schedule.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained a similar
provision (sec. 601(c)).
The agreement includes the House provision with a technical
amendment.
Extension of authority to provide temporary increase in rates of basic
allowance for housing under certain circumstances (sec. 602)
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 601) that would
extend for 1 year the authority of the Secretary of Defense to
temporarily increase the rate of basic allowance for housing in
areas impacted by natural disasters or experiencing a sudden
influx of personnel.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained an identical
provision (sec. 604).
The agreement includes this provision.
Inclusion of Chief of the National Guard Bureau and Senior Enlisted
Advisor to the Chief of the National Guard Bureau among senior
members of the Armed Forces for purposes of pay and allowances
(sec. 603)
The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision
(sec. 602) that would provide pay parity for the Chief of the
National Guard Bureau with the other members of the Joint
Chiefs of Staff. The provision would also provide pay parity
for the senior enlisted advisor to the Chief of the National
Guard Bureau with the senior enlisted advisors of the Armed
Forces. The changes made by this provision would be prospective
to the date of enactment of this Act.
The House bill contained no similar provision.
The agreement includes this provision.
Modification of computation of basic allowance for housing inside the
United States (sec. 604)
The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision
(sec. 603) that would amend section 403(b) of title 37, United
States Code, to revise the method by which the monthly amount
of the basic allowance for housing (BAH) is determined by
authorizing the Secretary of Defense to reduce the monthly
amount by up to 5 percent of the national average for housing
for a given pay grade and dependency status.
The House bill contained no similar provision.
The agreement includes the Senate provision with an
amendment that would authorize the Secretary to reduce the
monthly amount of BAH by up to 1 percent of the national
average for housing for a given pay grade and dependency
status. Servicemembers would not see any reduction in their BAH
until they undergo a permanent change of duty station. This
provision would not apply to veterans benefits paid under title
38, United States Code. This provision would require the
Secretary of Veterans Affairs to pay the appropriate veterans
benefits under title 38, United States Code, as the Secretary
would otherwise have issued those benefits without regard to
changes made to the BAH under this section.
We note that while the Department of Defense (DOD)
legislative proposal included proposed changes to BAH that
would have been implemented over the next 3 years, this
agreement includes those changes to BAH that the committees
understand would have been implemented by DOD in 2015. By
adopting changes to BAH beginning in the first year of the
proposal, the agreement preserves the option for Congress to
achieve the full savings requested by DOD.
This approach does not constitute a rejection of the
administration proposal, which was endorsed by the Joint Chiefs
of Staff. Rather, consideration of further changes to BAH in
fiscal years 2016, 2017, and beyond is deferred until after the
committees receive the report of the Military Compensation and
Retirement Modernization Commission, which is due in February
2015. The two committees commit to consider proposed changes to
BAH that are included in the fiscal year 2016 budget request as
part of the consideration of the National Defense Authorization
Act for Fiscal Year 2016.
We note that if sequestration-level budgets remain in
effect for fiscal year 2016 and beyond, DOD will need to make
painful cuts and achieve substantial savings across its entire
budget in order to avoid an unacceptable reduction in readiness
of the Armed Forces of the United States. The Chiefs have urged
us to take all action necessary, including compensation
adjustments, to avoid such readiness impacts.
The Committees on Armed Services of the Senate and the
House of Representatives intend to work with the Committees on
Veterans' Affairs of the Senate and the House of
Representatives next year in an effort to harmonize BAH rates
paid by the Department of Defense and by the Department of
Veterans' Affairs.

for persons without prior service, the Ready Reserve enlistment

for dental specialist officers in critically short wartime
specialties.

provision (sec. 612).
The agreement includes this provision.
One-year extension of special pay and bonus authorities for nuclear
officers (sec. 613)

extend for 1 year the authority to pay the special pay for

members, the general bonus authority for officers, special
bonus and incentive pay authorities for nuclear officers,

officers, special bonus and incentive pay authorities for
officers in health professions, and the contracting bonus for
cadets and midshipmen enrolled in the Senior Officers' Training
Corps. The provision would also extend for 1 year the authority
to pay hazardous duty pay, assignment or special duty pay,
skill incentive pay or proficiency bonus, and retention
incentives for members qualified in critical military skills or
assigned to high priority units.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained a similar
provision (sec. 614) that did not include the extension of the
contracting bonus for cadets and midshipmen as that extension
was contained elsewhere in the Senate committee-reported bill.

bonuses and special pays (sec. 615)

precommissioning programs, the accession bonus for new officers
in critical skills, the incentive bonus for conversion to
military occupational specialty to ease personnel shortage, the
incentive bonus for transfer between armed forces, and the
accession bonus for officer candidates.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained a similar
provision (sec. 615).
The agreement includes the House provision.
Subtitle C--Disability Pay, Retired Pay, and Survivor Benefits
Earlier determination of dependent status with respect to transitional
compensation for dependents of certain members separated for
dependent abuse (sec. 621)
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 545) that would
amend section 1059 of title 10, United States Code, to clarify
that the date on which a dependent child's status is determined
for the purposes of transitional compensation under that
section, in the case of a member being administratively
separated, is the date on which the separation action is
commenced. This aligns the dependent status determination with
the date on which transitional compensation payments begin
under that section in these cases.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained a similar
provision (sec. 624).
The agreement includes the Senate provision.
Modification of determination of retired pay base for officers retired
in general and flag officer grades (sec. 622)
The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision
(sec. 622) that would amend section 1407a of title 10, United
States Code, to reinstate the cap on retired pay of general and
flag officers at the monthly equivalent of level II of the
Executive Schedule, as otherwise provided for in section
203(a)(2) of title 37, United States Code. The provision would
ensure the equitable treatment of the service of general and
flag officers who are retired after December 31, 2014.
The House bill contained no similar provision.
The agreement includes the Senate provision with numerous
technical amendments and an amendment to ensure equitable
treatment of general and flag officers who are retired under

transferred to the retired reserve prior to December 31, 2014.

of the Armed Forces under the age of 62 under the Bipartisan
Budget Act of 2013 who first become members prior to January 1,
2016 (sec. 623)
The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision
(sec. 621) that would amend subparagraph (G) of section
1401a(b)(4) of title 10, United States Code, to exempt those
who first join military service prior to January 1, 2016, from
the reduced cost of living adjustment (COLA) applicable to
military retired pay made by section 403 of the Bipartisan
Budget Act of 2013 (Public Law 113-67), as amended by section 2
of Public Law 113-82. Under current law, this reduced COLA is
inapplicable to members who first join prior to January 1,
2014.
The House bill contained no similar provision.
The agreement includes this provision with a technical
amendment.
Survivor Benefit Plan annuities for special needs trusts established
for the benefit of dependent children incapable of self-support
(sec. 624)
The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision
(sec. 625) that would amend sections 1448, 1450, and 1455 of
title 10, United States Code, to authorize the payment of the
Survivor Benefit Plan annuity to a special needs trust created
under subparagraph (A) or (C) of section 1396p(d)(4) of title
42, United States Code, for the sole benefit of a disabled
dependent child incapable of self-support because of mental or
physical incapacity.

may receive reserve retired pay may be accumulated between 2
consecutive fiscal years, effective after the date of enactment
of this Act.

amend section 2492 of title 10, United States Code, to provide

offering food services to servicemembers.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar
provision.
The agreement includes the House provision.
This change to section 2942 of title 10 and the
implementation of the food transformation program should not
result in the loss of employment pursuant to the Javits-Wagner-
O'Day Act (41 U.S.C. 8501 et seq.).
However, we are concerned with the lack of regulatory
guidance on the application of the Javits-Wagner-O'Day Act (41
U.S.C. 8501 et seq.) and Randolph-Sheppard Act (20 U.S.C. 107
et seq.) to military dining facilities. We previously sought to
resolve this long-standing issue by requiring a Joint Policy
Statement in section 848 of Public Law 109-163 and enacting a
permanent ``no-poaching'' provision in section 856 of Public
Law 109-364. However, without complementary regulations to
implement the Joint Policy Statement, confusion remains on when
to apply the two acts, particularly with regard to new
contracts that are not covered by section 856 of Public Law
109-364.
Pursuant to the Joint Policy Statement, the Randolph-
Sheppard Act applies to contracts for the operation of a
military dining facility, or full food services, and the
Javits-Wagner-O'Day Act applies to contracts and subcontracts
for dining support services, or dining facility attendant
services, for the operation of a military dining facility.
Not later than 180 days after the date of the enactment of
this Act, the Secretary of Defense shall prescribe implementing
regulations for the application of the two acts to military
dining facilities. Such regulations shall implement the Joint
Policy Statement and specifically address DOD contracts that
are not covered by section 856 of Public Law 109-364.
Competitive pricing of legal consumer tobacco products sold in
Department of Defense retail stores (sec. 633)
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 633) that would

category sold as of January 1, 2014, in the defense commissary
system or exchange stores system on any military installation,
domestically or overseas, or on any Department of Defense
vessel at sea.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar
provision.
The agreement includes the House provision with an
amendment that would require the Secretary of Defense to issue
regulations regarding the pricing of tobacco and tobacco-
related products sold in an outlet of the defense retail
systems inside the United States, including territories and
possessions of the United States, to prohibit the sale of a
product at a price below the most competitive price for that
product in the local community. The provision would also
require the regulations to direct that the price of these
products sold in an outlet of the defense retail systems
outside of the United States shall be within the range of
prices established for the product in outlets of the defense
retail systems inside the United States.
Review of management, food, and pricing options for defense commissary
system (sec. 634)
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 632) that would
require the Secretary of Defense to conduct a review, utilizing
the services of an independent organization experienced in
grocery retail analysis, of the defense commissary system. The
provision would also require the Secretary of Defense to submit
to the Committees on Armed Services of the Senate and the House
of Representatives a report containing the results of the
review not later than February 1, 2015.
A proposed amendment to the Senate committee-reported bill
(amendment number 3866) contained a provision that would
require the Secretary of Defense, not later than 90 days after
the date of the enactment of this Act, to submit to the
congressional defense committees a report on the impact that
eliminating or reducing the commissary subsidy would have on
eligible beneficiaries.
The agreement includes the House provision with an
amendment that would require the Secretary of Defense to
conduct a review, utilizing the services of an independent
organization experienced in grocery retail analysis, of the
defense commissary system to include the impact that
eliminating or reducing the commissary subsidy would have on
eligible beneficiaries. The amendment would also require the
Secretary of Defense to submit to the Committees on Armed
Services of the Senate and the House of Representatives a
report containing the results of the review not later than
September 1, 2015.

rather than the 1.8 percent that would otherwise be required

amend section 1074m of title 10, United States Code, to require
the Secretary of Defense to provide person-to-person mental
health screenings once during each 180-day period in which a
servicemember is deployed.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision
(sec. 701) that would require the Secretary to provide a
person-to-person mental health assessment for Active Duty and
Selected Reserve members each year. The Secretary may provide
such assessments in conjunction with annual periodic health
assessments or pre- or post-deployment health assessments. In
addition, the provision would require the Secretary to submit
an annual report on the tools and processes used to provide the
assessments.
The agreement includes the Senate provision with an
amendment that would require the Secretary to provide a person-
to-person mental health assessment for Active Duty and Selected
Reserve members each year (such assessments may be provided in
conjunction with annual periodic health assessments or pre- or
post-deployment health assessments) and to submit a report to
the Committees on Armed Services of the Senate and the House of
Representatives on the tools and processes used to provide the
assessments. The amendment would also require the Secretary,
through 2018, to provide person-to-person mental health
screenings once during each 180-day period in which a member is
deployed.
Modifications of cost-sharing and other requirements for the TRICARE
Pharmacy Benefits Program (sec. 702)
The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision
(sec. 702) that would amend section 1074g of title 10, United
States Code, to modify the TRICARE pharmacy benefits program by
specifying that non-formulary prescriptions would be available
through the national mail-order pharmacy program, establishing
prescription copayments from 2015 through 2024, and requiring
that non-generic prescription maintenance medications be
refilled through military treatment facility pharmacies or the
national mail-order pharmacy program.
The House bill contained no similar provision.
The agreement includes the Senate provision with an
amendment that would make the provision specifying that non-
formulary prescriptions would be available through the national
mail-order pharmacy program and the provision requiring that
non-generic prescription maintenance medications be refilled
through military treatment facility pharmacies or the national
mail-order pharmacy program beginning on October 1, 2015. The
agreement also modifies prescription copayments beginning in
2015.
We note that while the Department of Defense (DOD)
legislative proposal included proposed changes to the TRICARE
pharmaceutical co-pays for fiscal years 2015 through 2024, this
agreement includes changes beginning in fiscal year 2015. By
adopting co-payment changes beginning the first year of the
proposal, the agreement preserves the option for Congress to
achieve most of the savings requested by DOD.
This approach does not constitute a rejection of the DOD
proposal, which was endorsed by the Joint Chiefs of Staff.
Rather, consideration of further changes to co-pays is deferred
until after the committees receive the report of the Military
Compensation and Retirement Modernization Commission, which is
due in February 2015. The two committees commit to consider
proposed changes to co-pays that are included in the FY 2016
budget request as part of the consideration of the National
Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2016.
We note that if sequestration-level budgets remain in
effect for Fiscal Year 2016 and beyond, DOD will need to make
painful cuts and achieve substantial savings across its entire
budget in order to avoid an unacceptable reduction in readiness
of the Armed Forces of the United States.
Elimination of inpatient day limits and other limits in provision of
mental health services (sec. 703)

States Code, to authorize the Secretary of Defense to provide
provisional coverage or authorization for coverage for certain
health care products and services that do not meet the
hierarchy of reliable evidence as prescribed in federal
regulations for the TRICARE program.
The House bill contained no similar provision.
The agreement includes the Senate provision with an
amendment that would amend chapter 55 of Title 10, United
States Code, to authorize the Secretary of Defense, acting
through the Assistant Secretary of Defense for Health Affairs,
to provide provisional coverage for the provision of a service
or supply if the Secretary determines that such service or
supply is widely recognized in the United States as being safe
and effective.
Clarification of provision of food to former members and dependents not
receiving inpatient care in military medical treatment
facilities (sec. 705)

than 20 percent.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar
provision.
The agreement includes the House provision with an
amendment that would require the Secretary of Defense to
provide TRICARE beneficiaries with notice if any significant
changes are made in the structure of or benefits provided under
the TRICARE program or in beneficiary cost-share rates of more
than 20 percent.
Surveys on continued viability of TRICARE Standard and TRICARE Extra
(sec. 712)
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 712) that would
change the frequency of the reports of the reviews submitted to
Congress by the Comptroller General of the United States
regarding the processes, procedures, and analysis used by the
Department of Defense (DOD) to determine the adequacy of the
number of health care providers who accept TRICARE Standard and
TRICARE Extra. The Comptroller General would report on reviews
during 2017, 2020, and at such other times as requested by the
Comptroller General or the Committees on Armed Services of the
Senate and the House of Representatives.

care provider acceptance of the TRICARE Standard and TRICARE
Extra benefit.
The agreement includes the House provision with an
amendment that would change the frequency of the reports of the
reviews submitted to Congress by the Comptroller General
regarding the processes, procedures, and analysis used by DOD
to determine the adequacy of the number of health care
providers who accept TRICARE Standard and TRICARE Extra. The
Comptroller General would report on reviews during 2017 and
2020 only.

require the Secretary of Defense to submit a report to the
congressional defense committees on the Military Medical
Treatment Facility Modernization Study directed by the Resource
Management Decision of the Department of Defense (DOD) MP-D-01.
The report would include the study data, for a 12-year period,
used by the Secretary and the results of the study with regard
to recommendations to restructure or realign military medical
treatment facilities. Further, the provision would require the
Comptroller General of the United States, not later than 180
days after the Secretary submits the report required, to submit
a report to the congressional defense committees on the report
submitted by the Secretary of Defense, to include an assessment
of the study methodology and data used by the Secretary. The
Secretary would be prohibited from realigning or restructuring
a military medical treatment facility until 120 days following
the date the Comptroller General is required to submit the
report.

used by the Secretary and the results of the study with regard
to recommendations to restructure or realign military medical
treatment facilities, as well as assessments of whether the
military medical treatment facilities included in the
modernization study have a helipad capable of receiving medical
evacuation airlift patients arriving on the primary evacuation
aircraft platform for the military installation served; and
whether the Secretary consulted with the appropriate training
directorate, training and doctrine command, and forces command
of the military department concerned with respect to the
frequency of high-tempo, live-fire military operations, and
treating battlefield-like injuries, at locations that serve as
military training centers. Further, the provision would require

Legislative Provisions Not Adopted
Behavioral health treatment of developmental disabilities under the
TRICARE program
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 704) that would
amend section 1077 of title 10, United States Code, to
authorize behavioral health treatment, including applied
behavior analysis (ABA) therapy, for all developmental
disabilities as defined by section 15002(8) of title 42, United
States Code, including autism spectrum disorders, when
prescribed by a physician or psychologist to be covered under
the basic TRICARE program for certain beneficiaries.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar
provision.
The agreement does not include this provision.
We note that in July of this year the Department of Defense
consolidated its three preexisting programs that provided ABA
therapy for beneficiaries with autism spectrum disorder into
its TRICARE Comprehensive Autism Care Demonstration program.
This consolidation included a pilot program mandated by
Congress in section 705 of the National Defense Authorization
Act for Fiscal Year 2013 (Public Law 112-239), which provided
an ABA therapy reinforcement benefit for family members of
retirees. The Department of Defense is required to provide the
Committees on Armed Services of the Senate and the House of
Representatives with a report on the results of that pilot
program, to include recommendations with regard to beneficiary
cost-shares for the benefit. This report is expected in early
2015.
Cooperative health care agreements between the military departments and
non-military health care entities
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 711) that would
authorize the secretaries of the military departments to
establish cooperative health care agreements between military

review of at least 2 years of the implementation of the reform
of the administration of the Military Health System, examines
recruiting and retention of medical professionals with regard
to the Department of Defense's graduate medical education
programs, determines the assignment of such billets, and
certifies to the congressional defense committees that any
proposed transfer of a billet meets the needs of the military
departments and patients.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar
provision.
The agreement does not include this provision.
Department of Defense Medicare-Eligible Retiree Health Care Fund
matters
The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision
(sec. 721) that would amend sections 1111, 1113, 1115, and 1116
of title 10, United States Code, to modify the method by which
the Federal Government makes accrual payments into the
Department of Defense Medicare-Eligible Retiree Health Care
Fund (Fund), by changing from a lump sum Treasury payment at
the beginning of a fiscal year to monthly payments by the
military services out of military personnel accounts, and would
authorize the Secretary of Defense to change the actuarial
determination required by section 1115 of title 10, United
States Code, in the event Congress enacts significant benefit
changes after such determination was made.
The House bill contained no similar provision.
The agreement does not include this provision.
For the last several years, the Department of Defense (DOD)
has proposed legislation that, if enacted, would reduce its
annual contribution to the Fund. These proposals have come as
part of the administration's budget submission, and DOD
continues to assume discretionary savings in its budget that
are tied to enactment of these proposals, despite the fact that
(1) there is no guarantee that Congress will support the
proposals, and (2) even if Congress were to support such
proposals, the timing of the annual contribution to the Fund
precludes DOD from realizing discretionary savings in the year
of execution, unless the annual defense bill is passed and
signed by the President prior to October 1st. We find this
practice of assuming savings disingenuous at worst, and short-
sighted and impractical at best.
Until a method is devised for DOD to realize year-of-
execution savings with respect to its contributions to the
Fund, we strongly urge DOD to cease its practice of assuming
year-of-execution discretionary savings from legislative
proposals that effect outlays from the Fund. Such practice
leaves DOD with military personnel funding shortfalls even if
Congress supports legislative proposals that yield short-term
discretionary savings.
Research regarding Alzheimer's disease
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 723) that would
authorize the Secretary of Defense to carry out research,
development, test, and evaluation activities with respect to
Alzheimer's disease.

provision.
The agreement does not include this provision.
Briefing on hospitals in arrears in payments to Department of Defense
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 728) that would
require the Secretary of Defense to provide to the Committees
on Armed Services of the Senate and the House of
Representatives a briefing on the process used by the Defense
Health Agency (DHA) to collect payments from non-Department of
Defense (DOD) hospitals.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar
provision.
The agreement does not include this provision.
We direct the Secretary of Defense to provide, not later
than 60 days after the date of the enactment of this Act, a
briefing to the Committees on Armed Services of the Senate and
the House of Representatives on the process used by DHA to
collect payments from non-DOD hospitals, to include a list of
each hospital that is more than 90 days in arrears in payments
to the Secretary, including the amount of arrears by 30-day
increments for each such hospital.
Research regarding breast cancer
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 729) that would
require the Secretary of Defense to implement the
recommendations of the Interagency Breast Cancer and
Environmental Research Coordinating Committee (IBCERCC) to
prioritize prevention and increase the study of chemical and
physical factors in breast cancer.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar
provision.
The agreement does not include this provision.
We note that the Department of Defense Breast Cancer
Research Program (BCRP) has implemented recommendations of the
IBCERCC and has prioritized primary prevention as one of the
BCRP's ten overarching challenges. In addition, the study of
chemical and physical factors in primary prevention is one of
several recommendations made by the IBCERCC to address the
primary prevention of breast cancer. The intent of the program
is to enable researchers to submit proposals that address any
of the overarching challenges.
Sense of Congress regarding access to mental health services by members
of the armed forces
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 730) that would
express the sense of Congress that servicemembers should have
adequate access to the mental health care and support that they
need, that public-private mental health partnerships can
provide the Department of Defense (DOD) with enhanced
capability to treat servicemembers, and that DOD should fully
implement the pilot program authorized under section 706 of the
National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2013 (Public
Law 112-239).
The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar
provision.
The agreement does not include this provision.

Defense should increase awareness among servicemembers and
military doctors of hyperbaric oxygen therapy treatments.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar
provision.
The agreement does not include this provision.
Title VIII--Acquisition Policy, Acquisition Management, and Related
Matters
Subtitle A--Acquisition Policy and Management
Modular open systems approaches in acquisition programs (sec. 801)
The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision
(sec. 801) that would require the Department of Defense (DOD)
to adopt an open systems approach to Major Defense Acquisition
Programs and Major Automated Information Systems, and to other
programs the primary purpose of which is the acquisition of an
information technology (IT) system, entering the acquisition
process after January 1, 2016. The committee believes that a
comprehensive open systems approach is an important component
of IT acquisition reform.
The House bill contained no similar provision.
The agreement includes the Senate provision with a
clarifying amendment.
The provision requires the Under Secretary of Defense for
Acquisition, Technology and Logistics to develop standards and
define architectures necessary to enable open systems
approaches in key mission areas of DOD.
The Under Secretary is further required to review and
update guidance to ensure that acquisition programs use open
system approaches in the product design and acquisition of
information technology systems to the maximum extent
practicable and to detail in the contract file reasons why any
system is not an open system.
Finally, the provision requires the Under Secretary to
identify legacy information technology systems that are not
utilizing an open systems approach and outline a process for
potential conversion to an open systems approach.
Recharacterization of changes to Major Automated Information System
programs (sec. 802)
The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision
(sec. 802) that would modify requirements applicable to a Major
Automated Information System program that fails to achieve a
full deployment decision within 5 years after the Milestone A
decision or selection of the preferred alternative for the
program.
In lieu of a critical change report, failure to achieve a
full deployment decision within 5 years would be determined to
be a significant change with the attendant notification to the
congressional defense committees required for all significant
changes.
The House bill contained no similar provision.
The agreement includes the Senate provision.
Amendments relating to defense business systems (sec. 803)
The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision
(sec. 803) that would require business process reengineering
(BPR) before milestone decisions for the Major Automated
Information System program.
The House bill contained no similar provision.
The agreement includes the Senate provision with a
clarifying amendment.
We continue to be concerned that BPR is not being conducted
rigorously enough, or documented well enough, to drive
successful information technology acquisition outcomes.
We believe that the Department of Defense (DOD) is too
often lackadaisical in its attempts at BPR or the results are
misaligned to the budgeting, requirements and acquisition
processes to have any significant effect on the outcome. BPR
must happen early and upfront, well before the requirements and
acquisition community get involved in order to inform their
work.
As we have observed, and as industry has indicated to us as
part of our acquisition improvement efforts, it is important to
clearly articulate the desired outcomes of information
technology (IT) system acquisitions with input from the user
community. That should happen after business processes have
been analyzed, and if necessary restructured, to ensure the way
an organization does business drives the system, not the other
way around. Aligning the IT acquisition strategy to the mission
goals of the organization is necessary to get the maximum
return-on-investment from a system, but that cannot happen
without leadership to drive and enforce organizational change.
We believe that the requirement to do formal process
mapping as part of the milestone decision approval process will
help, but is only one step, in a larger effort to improve the
information technology management of DOD.
We believe there are a number of ways that DOD could
improve BPR. For example, expanding the investment review
process for IT systems and empowering the Deputy Chief
Management Officer (DCMO) to conduct BPR for other IT mission
areas within DOD warrants consideration in the future.
Additionally, we believe that the process improvement
officers of DOD and the military departments should work with
their respective Chief Information Officers to create metrics
to track progress and BPR, as well as meeting the other
strategic management objectives of DOD.
We note that there are many scientific and technical
personnel within DOD's research, development, test and
evaluation community that could be more actively engaged to
create a rigorous, scientific process for conducting BPR.
Report on implementation of acquisition process for information
technology systems (sec. 804)
The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision
(sec. 805) that would require the Under Secretary of Defense
(Acquisition, Technology, & Logistics) to submit a report to
the congressional defense committees on the implementation of
the acquisition process for information technology detailing
the applicable implementing regulations, instructions, or
policies.
The report shall also explain any legislative criteria not
yet implemented and a schedule for implementing such criteria
along with any proposed deviations.
The House bill contained no similar provision.
The agreement includes the Senate provision.
We are concerned with the Department of Defense's (DOD)
ability to effectively acquire information technology (IT)
resources. We believe that part of the challenge that DOD faces
is in its reliance on processes that are too heavily focused on
the acquisition of militarily unique hardware systems. We
recognize that the paradigm for IT acquisition is rooted more
firmly in the commercial marketplace. As a consumer of
commercially developed solutions, rather than a generator of
unique requirements, DOD follows commercial trends more often
than it leads them.
Unfortunately, we believe that DOD has not done enough to
come to terms with this trend, choosing instead to act as
though it has the same power to influence computing and
electronics markets as it did for most of the 20th century.
Though numerous studies have indicated a need to change
acquisition processes within DOD to adjust to the reality of
21st century commercial IT markets, DOD has made little
progress. Ideas such as agile development, the use of clear
requirements tied to software development timelines, rethinking
the processes for capital planning and investment, and the
application of system audits and risk management to enhance
outcomes are prevalent within the commercial sector, but often
face resistance and hostility from government program managers
and contracting officers.
Section 804 of the National Defense Authorization Act of
Fiscal Year 2012 (Public Law 111-84) authorized DOD to
implement a new acquisition process for IT systems, but to
date, we have seen little tangible action to take advantage of
those new authorities. We believe that DOD needs to do more to
show tangible progress in its efforts at improving IT
acquisition, especially as software-intensive IT systems
continue to become more prominent components of U.S. military
capability.
Subtitle B--Amendments to General Contracting Authorities, Procedures,
and Limitations
Extension and modification of contract authority for advanced component
development and prototype units (sec. 811)
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 802) that would
extend existing statutory authority under subsection (b)(4) of
section 819 of the National Defense Authorization Act for
Fiscal Year 2010 (Public Law 111-84) until September 30, 2019.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained a similar
provision (sec. 822).
The agreement includes the Senate provision.
Amendments relating to authority of the Defense Advanced Research
Projects Agency to carry out certain prototype projects (sec.
812)
The House bill included a provision (section 803) which
would amend section 845(a)(1) of The National Defense
Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 1994 (Public Law 103-160) to
broaden the definition for the types of efforts for which other
transactions authority might be used by the Defense Advanced
Research Projects Agency.
The Senate committee-reported bill included no similar
provision.
The agreement includes the House provision with an
amendment that makes technical changes to the use of other
transactions authority.
Extension of limitation on aggregate annual amount available for
contract services (sec. 813)
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 804) that would
extend for 1 year the cap on the aggregate annual amount spent
on contracts for services through fiscal year 2015.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar
provision.
The agreement includes the House provision with a technical
amendment.
We note that the Government Accountability Office (GAO) has
stated that the military departments and defense agencies
generally have not developed plans to use the inventory of
contracted services, mandated since 2008 in section 2330a of
title 10, United States Code, to facilitate the Department of
Defense's (DOD) strategic workforce planning, workforce mix,
budget decision-making processes, and contract execution and
oversight.
Further, GAO found that components may not have fully
identified, as required by section 2330a of title 10, United
States Code, all instances in which contractors are providing
services that are inherently governmental, closely associated
with inherently governmental functions, staff augmentation, or
personal services, the latter of which we note are prohibited
by law.
According to GAO, a key factor inhibiting the components'
inventory review is a lack of accurate and reliable data, which
we note the inventory could provide if the components were to
implement DOD-wide a common data system based on the Army's
existing system as directed by existing DOD guidance.
In the absence of a plan of action with milestones and
timeframes to establish a common data system to collect
contractor manpower data, we are leaving the caps on contractor
spending in place for fiscal year 2015.
Improvement in defense design-build construction process (sec. 814)
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 805) that would
amend section 3309 of title 41, United States Code, and section
2305a of title 10, United States Code, by limiting the maximum
number specified in the solicitation for a design-build
contract. Additionally, this provision would require the head
of an agency awarding a contract pursuant to this provision to
provide a report to the Director of the Office of Management
and Budget.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar
provision.
The agreement includes the House provision with an
amendment that would limit application of the provision to
section 2305a of title 10, United States Code, and, for
contracts greater than $4.0 million, limit the maximum number
of offerors specified in the solicitation for a two-phase
design-build contract, unless a higher number is approved by
the head of a contracting activity.
Permanent authority for use of simplified acquisition procedures for
certain commercial items (sec. 815)
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 806) that would
make the authority for use of simplified acquisition procedures
for certain commercial items permanent.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar
provision.
The agreement includes the House provision.
Restatement and revision of requirements applicable to multiyear
defense acquisitions to be specifically authorized by law (sec.
816)
The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision
(sec. 821) that would clarify and reorganize the reporting and
certification requirements of the Department of Defense when
requesting specific authorization for multiyear contract
authority.
The House bill contained no similar provision.
The agreement includes the Senate provision with a
technical amendment clarifying when certain cost estimates
should be performed.
Sourcing requirements related to avoiding counterfeit electronic parts
(sec. 817)
The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision
(sec. 824) that would clarify sourcing requirements related to
avoiding counterfeit electronic parts.
The House bill contained no similar provision.
The agreement includes the Senate provision with a
clarifying amendment.
Amendments to Proof of Concept Commercialization Pilot Program (sec.
818)
The House bill included a provision (section 829) which
would modify the Small Business Act (section 638 of title 15,
United States Code) to require each agency carrying out a Small
Business Technology Transfer program to support innovative
approaches to technology transfer at institutions of higher
education, based on the pilot program established under section
5127 of the National Defense Authorization Act for fiscal Year
2012 (Public Law 112-81).
The Senate committee-reported bill included no similar
provision.
The agreement includes the House provision with an
amendment that makes technical amendments to section 1603 of
the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2014
(Public Law 113-66), which provides authority for the DOD to
fund commercialization proof of concept centers.
We note that there is commercialization potential in the
research activities ongoing in universities, small businesses,
and defense labs. Transition of promising research results into
fielded defense systems or commercially successful enterprises
is a benefit to both DOD and the nation as a whole.
We note that the Senate committee-reported Defense
Appropriations Act for Fiscal Year 2015 (H.R. 4870 and Senate
report 113-211) encouraged DOD to expand efforts at
commercialization of technologies, especially those derived
from research at the DOD laboratories. We encourage the
Assistant Secretary of Defense for Research and Engineering to
work with the Congress to identify appropriate funding to
support the commercialization activities envisioned in that
bill, as well as those authorized by this provision.
Subtitle C--Industrial Base Matters
Temporary extension of and amendments to test program for negotiation
of comprehensive small business subcontracting plans (sec. 821)
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 811) that would
modify and extend the test program for negotiation of
comprehensive small business subcontracting plans authorized by
section 402 of the Small Business Administration
Reauthorization and Amendments Act of 1990 (Public Law 101-
574).
The Senate committee-reported bill contained a similar
provision (sec. 823).
The agreement includes the House provision with a technical
amendment.
Plan for improving data on bundled or consolidated contracts (sec. 822)
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 813) that would
amend section 644 of title 15, United States Code, by requiring
the Small Business Administration to work with other agencies
to create and implement a data quality improvement plan to
promote greater accuracy, transparency, and accountability in
the reporting of contract bundling and consolidation.
The committee recognizes that properly labeling a contract
as bundled or consolidated is important to small business
competition, as the process of contract labeling triggers a
series of reviews and mitigation steps that promote
opportunities for small business.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar
provision.
The agreement includes the House provision with a
clarifying amendment.
We direct the Comptroller General of the United States to
assess whether contracts are being identified properly as
bundled or consolidated. The review shall examine a
statistically significant sample of contracts awarded by the
Departments of Defense (DOD), Energy, Health and Human
Services, Homeland Security, Veterans Affairs, the General
Services Administration, National Aeronautics and Space
Administration and the Small Business Administration with
values above $10.0 million in sectors 23, 33, 54, and 56 as
defined by the North American Industry Classification System.
Not later than October 1, 2015, the Comptroller General
shall provide an interim briefing to the House and Senate
Committees on Armed Services, the Senate Committee on Small
Business and Entrepreneurship, and the House Committee on Small
Business with a summary of findings, including an assessment of
(1) the quality of data reported pertaining to contract
bundling and consolidation, and (2) interim recommendations, if
any, to improve current data collection and dissemination on
contract bundling and consolidation.
In the final report, the Comptroller General shall evaluate
(1) the pros and cons of implementing government-wide the
``Federal Procurement Data System (FPDS) Contract Reporting
Data Improvement Plan'' published by DOD on January 12, 2010;
(2) the plan proposed by the Small Business Administration
under this section; and (3) whether other alternatives should
be considered to improve reporting of bundled and consolidated
contracts without requiring modification to FPDS.
Finally, the Comptroller General shall examine whether
government-wide strategic sourcing vehicles are reducing the
number of companies, including small business concerns, that
are actively participating in the federal procurement system as
prime contractors, and whether this reduction poses substantial
risk to the industrial base.
The final report shall be delivered to the House and Senate
Committees on Armed Services, the Senate Committee on Small
Business and Entrepreneurship, and the House Committee on Small
Business not later than October 1, 2017.
Authority to provide education to small businesses on certain
requirements of Arms Export Control Act (sec. 823)
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 814) that would
amend section 21(c)(1) of the Small Business Act (section
648(c)(1) of title 15, United States Code) by including a
requirement that applicants receiving grants pursuant to that
section shall also assist small businesses by providing, where
appropriate, education on the requirements applicable to small
businesses under the regulations issued pursuant to the Arms
Export Control Act (chapter 39 of title 22, United States Code)
and on compliance with those requirements. The provision would
also amend section 2418 of title 10, United States Code, by
expanding the Procurement Technical Assistance Program to
assist small business concerns with education related to export
controls.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar
provision.
The agreement includes the House provision with a
clarifying amendment.
Matters relating to reverse auctions (sec. 824)
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 815) that would
amend the Small Business Act (15 U.S.C. 631) to prohibit the
use of reverse auctions for procurement of certain goods and
services if the contract is awarded using a Small Business Act
procurement authority.
It would also limit the use of reverse auctions in cases
where only one offer was received or where offerors do not have
the ability to submit revised bids throughout the course of the
auction.
The section further clarified that the desire to use a
reverse auction does not obviate federal agencies from the
obligation to use a Small Business Act procurement authority.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar
provision.
The agreement includes the House provision with a
clarifying amendment.
We note that in conducting reverse auctions, buyers have
the ability to cancel an auction at any time before the auction
closes or to make the decision not to make any award after the
auction closes with proper justification in accordance with the
terms and conditions of the solicitation and all applicable
regulations.
The agreement also prohibits the use of reverse auctions
for military construction projects that require a specific
congressional authorization.
Sole source contracts for small business concerns owned and controlled
by women (sec. 825)
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 827) that would
allow for sole source contracting to certain women owned small
businesses.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar
provision.
The agreement includes the House provision with a
clarifying amendment.
Subtitle D--Federal Information Technology Acquisition Reform
Chief Information Officer authority enhancements (sec. 831)

inventory information technology software assets.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar
provision.
The agreement contains the House provision with a
clarifying amendment.
Federal data center consolidation initiative (sec. 834)
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 5203) that would
provide for the consolidation of federal data centers.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar
provision.
The agreement includes the House provision with a
clarifying amendment.
We believe that the Department of Defense (DOD) has made
significant strides in consolidating its data center
infrastructure, by maturing its process for evaluating data
centers as well as finding opportunities to leverage commercial
cloud computing capabilities. However, as both savings and
efficiencies from data center consolidation reach a point of
diminishing returns, we believe that DOD can continue to make
further progress by also integrating efforts to assess the
applications that run on this infrastructure to determine which
require dedicated servers and which can potentially be migrated
to virtualized or cloud environments.
We believe that software application rationalization and
consolidation is a natural extension of, and next step in, data
center consolidation. Reducing the data center footprint
eliminates unneeded infrastructure, but software application
rationalization is needed to more efficiently utilize the
infrastructure that remains, and to better determine if any
further data center consolidation may or may not be warranted.
Therefore, we direct the Chief Information Office of DOD,
in consultation with the Chief Information Officers of the
military departments, to carry out an assessment to identify
and prioritize the software applications in use throughout DOD
that should be considered for migration to a cloud computing
environment and to submit a report on the results of the
assessment to the Committees on Armed Services of the Senate
and House of Representatives by December 15, 2015. This
assessment should include the following:
(1) Whether each of the software applications used by
DOD can be readily transitioned to a cloud computing
environment with minimal additional investment of
developmental funding;
(2) If a software application used by DOD cannot be
readily transitioned to a cloud computing environment,
the cost and time required to enable, either by
modification or replacement, the operation of the
software application in a cloud computing environment;
(3) Whether it would be cost-effective to enable,
either by modification or replacement, the operation of
a software application in a cloud computing
environment;
(4) A list of software applications used by DOD that
should be enabled, either by modification or
replacement, to operate in a cloud computing
environment, listed in the order of priority by which
they should be enabled, and a schedule for such
modification or replacement; and
(5) An estimate of the cloud computing workload needs
of DOD time-phased across the future years defense plan
to inform DOD's cloud computing needs under the Joint
Information Environment initiative that might be
satisfied by government-owned and -operated or
commercial cloud computing solutions.

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 5502) that would
require the creation of a strategic sourcing initiative for
software.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar
provision.
The agreement includes the House provision with a
clarifying amendment.
Subtitle E--Never Contract With the Enemy
Prohibition on providing funds to the enemy (sec. 841)
A proposed amendment to the Senate committee-reported bill
(amendment number 3743B) contained a provision that would
provide the authority to terminate or void a contract, grant,
or cooperative agreement when it is found that funds received
under that contract, grant, or cooperative agreement are being
provided directly or indirectly to a person or entity that is
actively opposing United States or coalition forces involved in
a contingency operation in which members of the Armed Forces
are actively engaged in hostilities.
The House bill contained no similar provision.
The agreement includes the Senate provision with a
clarifying amendment.
Additional access to records (sec. 842)
A proposed amendment to the Senate committee-reported bill
(amendment number 3743C) contained a provision that would allow
the head of an executive agency to examine the records of a
contractor, recipient of a grant or cooperative agreement to
the extent necessary to ensure that funds, including goods and
services, available under the contract, grant, or cooperative
agreement are not provided directly or indirectly to a person
or entity that is actively opposing United States or coalition
forces involved in a contingency operation in which members of
the Armed Forces are actively engaged in hostilities.
The House bill contained no similar provision.
The agreement includes this provision.
Definitions (sec. 843)
A proposed amendment to the Senate committee-reported bill
(amendment number 3743D) contained a provision that would
provide certain definitions.
The House bill contained no similar provision.
The agreement includes the Senate provision with a
clarifying amendment.
Subtitle F--Other Matters
Rapid acquisition and deployment procedures for United States Special
Operations Command (sec. 851)
The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision
(sec. 807) that would require procedures for the rapid
acquisition and deployment of items for the U.S. Special
Operations Command (SOCOM) that are currently under development
by the Department of Defense (DOD) or available from the
commercial sector and are urgently needed to avoid significant
risk or loss of life or mission failure, or needed to avoid
collateral damage where no collateral damage is necessary for
mission success.
The House bill contained no similar provision.
The agreement includes the Senate provision with an
amendment that would authorize the establishment of procedures
for rapid acquisition and deployment of items for SOCOM that
are currently under development by DOD or available from the
commercial sector and are urgently needed to avoid significant
risk or loss of life or mission failure, or needed to avoid
collateral damage where no collateral damage is necessary for
mission success.
The provision would also require the Commander, SOCOM, in
instances where an item has identified deficiencies, to make
the determination that deployment of such an item is acceptable
for reasons of national security.
The provision would also make clear the SOCOM Commander may
not use the authority under this provision at the same time as
the Commander uses the authority under section 806 of Public
Law 107-314.
The agreement also includes amendments to the provision
that would require congressional notifications be made before
such rapid acquisition procedures go into effect and after such
use of rapid acquisition procedures are used to ensure robust
congressional oversight of this authority.
Consideration of corrosion control in preliminary design review (sec.
852)
The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision
(sec. 808) that would require the Under Secretary of Defense
for Acquisition, Technology, and Logistics to ensure that
Department of Defense (DOD) Instruction 5000.02 and other
applicable guidance require full consideration during
preliminary design review of metals, materials, and
technologies that effectively prevent or control corrosion over
the life cycle of the product.
The House bill contained no similar provision.
The agreement includes the Senate provision.
We expect the relevant instruction and regulations called
for in this provision to be tailored to apply only to products
likely to corrode and not to every item or system purchased by
the DOD.
Program manager development report (sec. 853)
The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision
(sec. 841) that would require the Secretary of Defense to
develop a comprehensive strategy for enhancing the role of
Department of Defense program managers in developing and
carrying out defense acquisition programs.
The House bill contained no similar provision.
The agreement includes the Senate provision with a
clarifying amendment.
Operational metrics for Joint Information Environment and supporting
activities (sec. 854)
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 821) that would
require the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff to conduct a
review of the Air Force Network-Centric Solutions II contract
and provide a certification to the Committees on Armed Services
of the Senate and the House of Representatives that the
contract is effective in delivering information technology
capabilities for the joint force.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar
provision.
The agreement includes the House provision with a
clarifying amendment.
We remain concerned by the lack of clarity about the
activities supporting the Joint Information Environment (JIE),
including the programs of records, and other non-materiel
aspects, that would contribute to the JIE vision.
In the case of some of the programs that we believe
contribute to JIE, like the Air Force's Network Centric
Solutions II contract, Navy's Next Generation Enterprise
Network, or the Army's Installation Information Infrastructure
Modernization program, there are measures of performance driven
by the information technology community, but not ones that can
be clearly tied to operational outcomes for the warfighting
community.
As the JIE evolves into a seamless network to support
warfighting functions, as well as business and support
processes, we believe that the Department of Defense (DOD)
needs metrics that can be tied to the operational customer in
ways that can demonstrate effectiveness, efficiency and
satisfaction.
Therefore, we direct the DOD Chief Information Officer, in
coordination with the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, to
brief the Committees on Armed Services of the Senate and the
House of Representatives on the guidance and metrics required
by this section within 210 days of the enactment of this Act.
Compliance with requirements for senior Department of Defense officials
seeking employment with defense contractors (sec. 855)
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 823) that would
amend section 847 of the National Defense Authorization Act for
Fiscal Year 2008 (Public Law 110-181) to require the Secretary
of Defense to designate an official of the Department of
Defense (DOD) to ensure compliance with the requirements of
that section and would require that, not later than 180 days
after the date of the enactment of this Act, such official
shall submit to the congressional defense committees a report
on DOD's efforts to ensure compliance with the requirements of
section 847.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar
provision.
The agreement includes the House provision with a
clarifying amendment.
We note a lack of clarity in the lines of supervision for
purposes of monitoring compliance with section 847 of the
National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2008 (Public
Law 110-181).
We therefore direct DOD to review those lines of
supervision and to submit a report on its findings to the
Committees on Armed Services of the Senate and of the House of
Representatives, no later than March 31, 2015.
The report shall identify each supervisory component by
office and by position and describe the reporting relationships
between each of DOD's 17 Designed Agency Ethics Officials and
each of the various components in their respective chains of
supervision as they relate to section 847 compliance.
Enhancement of whistleblower protection for employees of grantees (sec.
856)
The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision
(sec. 826) that would enhance the whistleblower protections for
employees of grantees.

The agreement includes the Senate provision with a
clarifying amendment.
Prohibition on reimbursement of contractors for congressional
investigations and inquiries (sec. 857)
The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision
(sec. 827) that would prohibit reimbursement of costs incurred
by a contractor in connection with a congressional
investigation or inquiry into an issue that is the subject
matter of a proceeding resulting in a disposition.
The House bill contained no similar provision.
The agreement includes the Senate provision.
Requirement to provide photovoltaic devices from United States sources
(sec. 858)
The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision
(sec. 829) that would provide additional acquisition
opportunities for the Department of Defense with respect to
photovoltaic devices.
The House bill contained no similar provision.
The agreement includes the Senate provision.
Reimbursement of Department of Defense for assistance provided to
nongovernmental entertainment-oriented media producers (sec.
859)
The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision
(sec. 862) that would provide for the reimbursement to the
Department of Defense for assistance provided to
nongovernmental entertainment-oriented media producers.
The House bill contained no similar provision.
The agreement includes the Senate provision.
Three-year extension of authority for Joint Urgent Operational Needs
Fund (sec. 860)
The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision
(sec. 863) that would reauthorize the Joint Urgent Operational
Needs Fund for three more years.
The House bill contained no similar provision.
The agreement includes the Senate provision.
Legislative Provisions Not Adopted
Extension to United States Transportation Command of authorities
relating to prohibition on contracting with the enemy
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 801) that would
amend section 831(i)(1) of the National Defense Authorization
Act for Fiscal Year 2014 (Public Law 113-66) to add U.S.
Transportation Command to the list of covered combatant
commands.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained a similar
provision (sec. 861).
The agreement does not include this provision.
We note that the extension to U.S. Transportation Command
of authorities relating to prohibition on contracting with the
enemy was included in another provision of this agreement.
Governance of Joint Information Environment
The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision
(sec. 804) that would require the Secretary of Defense to
install a stronger management element and set of controls on
the Joint Information Environment (JIE) initiative, including
by requiring the assignment of an experienced coordinator under
the Chief Information Officer (CIO) to oversee the JIE
migration, the establishment of a team of experts to support
the coordinator, and modifications to the JIE Executive
Committee and its working groups to ensure better
representation of those who must use the JIE to execute
warfighting missions and those who must defend the JIE from
cyber attacks.
The House bill contained no similar provision.
The agreement does not include this provision.
We are encouraged that the newly appointed CIO has the
necessary support from the Secretary and Deputy Secretary of
Defense, and the intent, to impose greater discipline over the
JIE migration, bolster the planning and engineering resources
devoted to the initiative, and to ensure that the needs of the
operational forces receive all due consideration alongside
communications and computing efficiencies and cost savings.
We direct that the CIO be prepared to brief the
congressional defense committees at regular intervals on the
measures taken to achieve these improvements, including
defining what JIE encompasses, and the ``as is'' condition and
the ``to be'' architecture; developing an integrated master
schedule and cost estimates; and tracking compliance with
objectives, schedules, and costs.
In addition, we direct the CIO to identify and prioritize
the applications in use in the Department of Defense (DOD) that
the CIO assesses are candidates for migration to a cloud
computing environment, and to determine which applications can
and cannot, without modification or replacement, be shifted to
a cloud computing environment, along with a time-phased plan to
either modify or replace those applications that are not cloud-
compatible. We note that a significant percentage of DOD
computing applications cannot be virtualized or otherwise are
not cloud-compatible, and that the cost and time required to
modify such applications are substantial. Without an
understanding of what applications can be readily migrated, and
a plan to modify or replace those that cannot, neither DOD nor
potential commercial cloud providers will be able to plan
effectively. The CIO should complete this tasking, and be
prepared to share the results with the congressional defense
committees, within 270 days of the enactment of this Act.
Improving opportunities for service-disabled veteran-owned small
business
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 812) that would
amend section 657 of title 15, United States Code, by
consolidating the verification and appeals processes for
Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB) programs
at the Department of Veterans Affairs and the Small Business
Administration (SBA), and by moving the processes and resources
of the SDVOSB verification programs at the Department of
Veterans Affairs to the SBA.
The provision would also allow the surviving spouse of a
service-disabled veteran who acquires an ownership right in a
small business concern to be treated as if the surviving spouse
were that veteran for the purpose of maintaining the status of
the small business as a small business concern owned and
controlled by service-disabled veterans.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar
provision.
The agreement does not include this provision.
We note that in the case of a transfer of ownership
resulting from the death of a service-disabled veteran to a
surviving spouse altering the status of the small business as a
SDVOSB, we believe the small business concern can continue to
perform existing contracts along with any remaining options to
those contracts under existing law.
Improving Federal Surety Bonds
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 816) that would
amend section 411(c)(1) of the Small Business Investment Act of
1958 (Public Law 85-699) by raising the guarantee rate on the
Small Business Administration's preferred security bond program
from 70 percent to 90 percent.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar
provision.
The agreement does not include this provision.
Publication of required justification that consolidation of contract
requirements
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 817) that would
require publication of certain justification and approval
documents.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar
provision.
The agreement does not include this provision.

accounting of subcontracting
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 818) that would
raise the goals for small business subcontracting.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar
provision.
The agreement does not include this provision.
Small business cyber education
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 819) that would
allow the Secretary of Defense, in consultation with the
Administrator of the Small Business Administration, to promote
an outreach and education program to assist small businesses in
understanding the cyber threat and in defending their networks
and intellectual property.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar
provision.
The agreement does not include this provision.
We recognize the challenges faced by small business, both
in protecting their own networks and intellectual property, and
also in developing effective capabilities to address cyber
security needs. As noted in the Joint Explanatory Statement
accompanying H.R. 3304, we recognize the challenges that the
defense acquisition system can pose for small businesses, but
the purpose of the small and disadvantaged businesses offices
established in each of the services is to handle the whole
gamut of small business issues.
We are aware of the activities the Department of Defense
(DOD) has instituted in order to improve small business access
to threat information and best practices pertaining to cyber
security. Last year, DOD briefed the Armed Services Committees
of the Senate and House of Representatives on plans to support
cyber education activities for small business through the
existing small business program. We recognize that this is a
work in progress, and that an ongoing assessment of those
efforts should be commenced in order to determine the
effectiveness of those efforts.
Therefore, we direct the Comptroller General of the United
States to submit a report to the Armed Services Committees of
the Senate and House of Representatives by November 1, 2015 on
the DOD's outreach and education to assist small businesses in
understanding cyber threats. This report should address the
following:
(1) An assessment of the planning being done to
integrate cyber education and outreach into the
programs of the offices of small and disadvantaged
businesses of DOD and the military services;
(2) The capabilities of these offices to support
small businesses in preparing plans for the protection
of their corporate networks and intellectual property;
and
(3) Development of metrics to determine the
performance and effectiveness of those programs and
planning activities.
Procurement of personal protective equipment
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 824) that would
require the Secretary of Defense to use best value tradeoff
source selection methods to the maximum extent practicable when
procuring an item of personal protective equipment (PPE) or
critical safety items. PPE items include, but are not limited
to, body armor components, combat helmets, combat protective
eyewear, environmental and fire resistant clothing, footwear,
organizational clothing and individual equipment (OCIE), and
other items as determined appropriate by the Secretary.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar
provision.
The agreement does not include this provision.
We note that PPE such as body armor, helmets, specialized
clothing and footwear as well as other OCIE items are
specifically designed to meet challenging military requirements
and specifications.
These PPE items are usually not commercial off-the-shelf
products, but are frequently highly engineered, critical life-
saving equipment items designed and manufactured to meet
rigorous performance standards, first article testing and
stringent production quality requirements.
We remain committed to providing the warfighter with the
best equipment possible and encourage the Department of Defense
to use proper source selection methods to fulfill these
requirements. In cases where offerors have widely diverse
technical qualifications and are expected to provide products
that differ significantly in performance characteristics,
source selection criteria should not be solely based on cost in
the procurement of OCIE and PPE.
Authority for Defense Contract Audit Agency to interview contractor
employees in connection with examination of contractor records
The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision
(sec. 825) that would amend subsection (a)(1) of section 2313
of title 10, United States Code, to grant the Defense Contract
Audit Agency specific authority to interview contractor
employees similar to the authority granted to the Comptroller
General of the United States in subsection (c)(1) of that same
section.
The House bill contained no similar provision.
The agreement does not include this provision.
We believe that under the authorities provided by section
2313 of title 10, United States Code, Defense Contract Audit
Agency (DCAA) officials have the authority to interview
contractor employees during the course of an audit if such an
interview is required to complete the audit.
We therefore encourage contractors to make available for
interview the employees associated with matters related to an
audit conducted in accordance with section 2313.
We also note that failure to provide reasonable access to
interview employees associated with matters under review during
an audit could result in a qualified audit opinion.
Prohibition on funds for contracts violating Executive Order No. 11246
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 825) that would
prohibit funding authorized to be appropriated by this Act or
otherwise made available to the Department of Defense to be
used to enter into any contract with any entity if such
contract would violate Executive Order No. 11246 (relating to
non-retaliation for disclosure of compensation information), as
amended by the announcement of the President on April 8, 2014.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar
provision.
The agreement does not include this provision.
Requirement for policies and standard checklist in procurement of
services
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 826) that would
amend section 2330a of title 10, United States Code, by
requiring the Under Secretary of Defense for Personnel and
Readiness to implement a standard checklist to be used for new
contract approval for services or exercising an option under an
existing contract for services. The checklist required would be
modeled on the policy and checklist relating to services
contract approval form (dated August 2012) established and in
use by the Department of the Army. Finally, the provision would
require the Comptroller General of the United States to submit
to the congressional defense committees a report on the
implementation of the standard checklist for each of fiscal
years 2015, 2016, and 2017.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar
provision.
The agreement does not include the provision.
We direct the Under Secretary of Defense for Acquisition,
Technology, and Logistics, and the senior acquisition executive
for the Department of the Navy and the Department of the Air
Force, no later than March 30, 2015, to issue to the Defense
agencies and the military services, respectively, policies
implementing a standard checklist to be completed before the
issuance of a solicitation for any new contract for services or
exercising an option under an existing contract for services,
including services provided under a contract for goods.
We recommend that the Under Secretary and the senior
acquisition executives, to the extent practicable, model their
policies and checklists on the policy and checklist relating to
services contract approval currently used by the Department of
the Army.
We also direct the Comptroller General of the United States
to submit to the congressional defense committees a report on
the Defense agencies' and military services' implementation of
a standard checklist by January 30, 2016.
Debarment required of persons convicted of fraudulent use of `made in
America' labels

Department of Defense are procured in accordance with section
2533a(b)(1)(D) of title 10, United States Code.

periods
The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision
(sec. 842) that would require the Secretary of Defense to
revise Department of Defense (DOD) guidance for defense
acquisition programs to address the tenure and accountability
of program managers for the program development period of
defense acquisition programs.
The House bill contained no similar provision.
The agreement does not include this provision.
We note that we require the Secretary of Defense to provide
recommendations on program manager tenure as part of an
overarching review of program manager development elsewhere in
this Act.
We express our intent to address program manager tenure in
next year's National Defense Authorization Act in the context
of a larger DOD acquisition reform effort.
Tenure and accountability of program managers for program execution
periods
The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision
(sec. 843) that would address the tenure and accountability of
program managers for the program execution period.
The provision would require each such program manager to
enter into a performance agreement with the milestone decision
authority (MDA) that establishes the expected parameters of
performance, including the commitment of the MDA that adequate
funding and resources are available and will be provided, and
assurance of the program manager that the parameters are
achievable.
The provision would also require that program managers be
given authority comparable to the authority given to private
sector program managers and that they be assigned to a program
until the delivery of the first production units, with a narrow
waiver authority.
The House bill contained no similar provision.
The agreement does not include this provision.
We note that we require the Secretary of Defense to provide
recommendations on program manager tenure as part of an
overarching review of program manager development elsewhere in
this Act.
We express our intent to address program manager tenure in
next year's National Defense Authorization Act in the context
of a larger Department of Defense acquisition reform effort.
Removal of requirements related to waiver of preliminary design review
and post-preliminary design review before Milestone B
The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision
(sec. 844) that would add an alternative to one of the

Title IX--Department of Defense Organization and Management
Subtitle A--Department of Defense Management
Reorganization of the Office of the Secretary of Defense and related
matters (sec. 901)
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 908) that would
incorporate a proposal from the Department of Defense to make
several amendments to title 10, United States Code, relating to
the organization and management of the Office of the Secretary
of Defense.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained a similar
provision (sec. 901) that would combine the Deputy Chief
Management Officer position and the Chief Information Officer
position into the Chief Management Officer position,
redesignate the Deputy Secretary of Defense as the Chief
Operating Officer, eliminate the Deputy Under Secretary of
Defense title except for Principal Deputy Under Secretaries of
Defense established by law, and redesignate the Assistant
Secretary of Defense for Operational Energy Plans and Programs
as the Assistant Secretary of Defense for Installations,
Energy, and Environment.
Additionally, this proposal seeks to make changes to
Chapter 4 of title 10, United States Code, in order to
streamline the establishment provisions for certain officials
and ensure that policymaking requirements are provided for
separately from establishment provisions and to make other
clerical and conforming changes.
The agreement includes the House provision with an
amendment that would combine the Deputy Chief Management
Officer and the Chief Information Officer position into a new
Under Secretary of Defense position placed in the order of
precedence before the Under Secretary of Defense for
Acquisition, Technology and Logistics.
This change would not take place until the next
administration, however, to allow for leadership continuity in
the Department of Defense through the current administration's
term in office.
The provision also combines the operational energy and
installations and environment functions under one Assistant
Secretary of Defense, and we direct the combined organization
to equally prioritize both functions. Additionally, the
provision added a new report requirement to accompany the
budget certification, or if the budget is not certified, there
are separate reporting details. Such report shall include an
appendix prepared by the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff
as well as a separate appendix prepared by the Under Secretary
of Defense for Acquisition, Technology, and Logistics. We
expect that the Under Secretary of Defense for Acquisition,
Technology, and Logistics will address operational energy as an
element of the acquisition posture statement, when presented to
Congress.
Section 902 of Public Law 110-417 created the Operational
Energy position in the Office of the Secretary of Defense,
which became the Assistant Secretary of Defense for Operational
Energy, Plans, and Programs with the intent to inform senior-
level decision-makers of the strategic implications of
operational energy requirements on the battlefield.
We recognize and commend the Assistant Secretary for the
progress and improvements made since enactment of section 902,
including streamlining operational energy requirements,
establishing policies, and extending combat capability and
operational reach by changing the culture and improving
acquisition and sustainment processes.
We believe that consideration of operational energy demands
and planning for energy consumption on the battlefield are of
tactical and strategic significance.
Therefore, we direct the Secretary of Defense to ensure
that the full intent of section 902 of Public Law 110-417 is
carried forward in any reorganization of personnel or
responsibilities related to operational energy, plans and
programs.
Assistant Secretary of Defense for Manpower and Reserve Affairs (sec.
902)
The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision
(sec. 902) that would amend section 138 of title 10, United

would be the overall supervision of manpower and reserve
affairs of the Department of Defense.

provision.
The agreement includes the House provision with a
clarifying amendment on the establishment of such an office.
We note that the current Office of Net Assessment has
provided the Secretary of Defense with the primary support
needed to meet the requirements of section 113(i) of title 10,
United States Code, directing the Secretary to conduct a net
assessment and submit an annual report to Congress. Support for
the Secretary's statutory responsibility for a net assessment
remains the primary purpose of such an office.
Periodic review of Department of Defense management headquarters (sec.
905)
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 909) that would
require the Secretary of Defense to develop a plan and submit a
report to the congressional defense committees within 120 days
after the date of the enactment of this Act to implement a
periodic review and analysis of the Department of Defense
personnel requirements for management headquarters and submit
the required plan to the congressional defense committee.

amend section 115b of title 10, United States Code, to require
the Secretary of Defense to prepare a biennial strategic
workforce plan that addresses the shaping and improvement of
the senior management workforce of the Department of Defense
and includes an assessment of the senior functional and
technical workforce of the Department within the appropriate
functional community. The provision would also add a
requirement that the strategic workforce plan include an
assessment of the workforce of the Department comprising highly
qualified experts.

Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2009 (10 U.S.C. 184) by
extending for 5 years the authority of the Secretary of Defense
to waive the reimbursement of costs for certain nongovernmental

amendment that would establish a pilot program authorizing the
Secretary of Defense to institute a government lodging program
to provide government or commercial lodging for DOD employees
or members of the uniformed services under the Secretary's
jurisdiction performing duty on official travel. The provision
would authorize the Secretary to require such travelers to
occupy adequate quarters on a rental basis when available. The
provision would also require an initial report within 6 months
of enactment of this Act outlining facets of the pilot program
established by the Secretary, as well as annual reports to be
submitted with annual budget requests, with a final report to
be submitted with the budget request for fiscal year 2019. The
authority to conduct a pilot program under this provision would
expire on December 31, 2019.
Single standard mileage reimbursement rate for privately owned
automobiles of Government employees and members of the
uniformed services (sec. 915)
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 923) that would
establish as the mileage reimbursement rate for federal
employees and members of the uniformed services using privately
owned automobiles for government travel the single standard
mileage reimbursement rate established by the Internal Revenue
Service for use by taxpayers in computing the deductible costs
of operating their automobiles for business purposes.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar
provision.
The agreement includes the House provision.
Modifications to requirements for accounting for members of the Armed
Forces and Department of Defense civilian employees listed as
missing (sec. 916)
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 925) that would
amend chapter 76 of title 10, United States Code, to establish
a defense agency within the Department of Defense, headed by a
director, to have responsibility over the Prisoner of War/
Missing in Action accounting community. The provision would
create a new section 1501a of title 10, United States Code, to
authorize the Secretary of Defense to enter into public-private
partnerships for the purposes of facilitating the accounting of
missing persons. The provision would require the Secretary to
assign or detail to the defense agency a full-time senior
medical examiner to provide medical oversight of the
identification process, establish identification and laboratory
policy, and advise the director on forensic scientific
disciplines. Finally, the provision would require the Secretary
to establish and maintain a single centralized database and
case management system containing information on all missing
persons for whom a file has been established.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained a similar
provision (sec. 911).
A proposed amendment to the Senate committee-reported bill
(amendment number 3706) contained a provision that would
require the Secretary of Defense to submit a report to the
Committees on Armed Services of the Senate and the House of
Representatives on policies and proposals for providing access
to information and documents to the next of kin of missing
service personnel.
The agreement includes the Senate provision and the
proposed amendment number 3706.
Legislative Provisions Not Adopted
Redesignation of the Department of the Navy as the Department of the
Navy and Marine Corps
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 901) that would
redesignate the Department of the Navy as the Department of the
Navy and Marine Corps, and redesignate the position of the
Secretary of the Navy as the Secretary of the Navy and the
Marine Corps.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar
provision.
The agreement does not include this provision.
Additional responsibility for Director of Operational Test and
Evaluation
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 902) which would
require the Director of Operational Test and Evaluation to
consider potential increases in program cost estimates and
delays in schedule estimates when implementing the policies,
procedures, and activities related to operational test and
evaluation. In addition, the provision requires the Director to
take appropriate action to ensure operational test and
evaluation activities do not unnecessarily impede program
schedules or increase program costs.
The report accompanying the House bill also directed the
Comptroller General of the United States to conduct a review of
the operational test and evaluation processes and activities of
the Department of Defense and to report the results of that
review to the congressional defense committees not later than
March 15, 2015.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision
(sec. 845) requiring the Comptroller General to submit a report
to the congressional defense committees on disputes between the
Office of the Director, Operational Test and Evaluation and the
acquisition community over testing requirements for major
weapon systems.
The agreement does not include these provisions.
We believe that in order to control the cost of defense
acquisitions, each element of the acquisition system is
responsible for considering the potential increases in
acquisition program cost estimates or delays in schedule
estimates when implementing that element's policies,
procedures, and activities. This includes the budget,
requirements, acquisition, and operational test communities.
Each of these organizations should take appropriate action to
balance its responsibilities with the need to avoid
unnecessarily increasing program costs or impeding program
schedules.
Accordingly, the Comptroller General is directed to inform
the congressional defense committees, not later than March 15,
2015, on the results of its review of cases in which the
program office believes that the Director has required testing
above the agreed to plan.
Requirement for congressional briefing before divesting of Defense
Finance and Accounting Service functions
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 904) that would
prohibit the transfer of financial management functions out of
the Defense Finance and Accounting Service (DFAS) until the
Secretary of Defense provides a briefing to the congressional
defense committees on a transfer plan and certifies the
transfer would reduce costs, increase efficiencies, maintain
the timeline for auditability of financial statements, and
maintain the roles and missions of DFAS.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar
provision.
The agreement does not include this provision.
As noted in Senate report accompanying S. 2410 (S. Rept.
113-176), the Assistant Secretary of the Army for Financial
Management and Comptroller, as directed by the Secretary of the
Army, conducted a doctrine, organization, training, material,
leadership, personnel, and facilities review of all Department
of the Army financial management processes, policies,
organization, and workforce composition.
Known as the Army Financial Management Optimization (AFMO)
initiative, the AFMO Task Force made numerous recommendations,
including a plan to ``consolidate selected financial management
activities'' into ``Command-Aligned Hubs'' (CAH).
A pilot program to test this CAH approach began October 1,
2014. While we applaud the Army's efforts, as the Army works to
reduce costs and achieve auditable financial statements, it is
important that the evaluation of any financial management-
focused program whose aim is optimization, consolidation, or
streamlining, initiated by the military departments, services,
or defense agencies, be analyzed not just from a service
perspective but also from a DOD-wide perspective.
We therefore endorse the Senate committee's direction to
the Deputy Chief Management Officer (DCMO) of the Department of
Defense to conduct a review of the CAH pilot program for any
DOD-wide impacts and direct that the DCMO's review be expanded
to any similar financial management-focused initiatives by
other military departments, services, or defense agencies in
fiscal year 2015 for similar impacts. The DCMO shall report
findings of the review to the congressional defense committees
within 120 days of completion of any pilot program.
Furthermore, the centralized financial management provided
by the Defense Finance and Accounting Service (DFAS) is
important to the auditability, cost effectiveness, and
efficiency of each military department, service, and the
defense agencies.
We therefore direct the Under Secretary of Defense
(Comptroller) to conduct a review of any proposal initiated in
this fiscal year, or resulting from a pilot program initiated
in this fiscal year, to permanently transfer functions from
DFAS to another DOD entity and to assess, at a minimum, the
impacts on cost, auditability, DFAS capabilities, and the
ability of DFAS to maintain DOD-wide services. The Comptroller
shall report findings to the congressional defense committees
prior to any proposed transfer.
Combatant command efficiency plan
The House bill contained a provision (sec.905) that would
require the Secretary of Defense to develop a plan to combine
the back office functions of two or more combatant commands and
to submit a report on the plan to the congressional defense
committees within 120 days after the date of the enactment of
this Act. This section would define the term ``back office
function'' as those including, but not limited to, the
administrative and support functions of a headquarters of a
combatant command. This section would also limit fiscal year
2015 funds for the headquarters of the Joint Chiefs of Staff
until the Secretary of Defense, in coordination with the
Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, provides the briefing on
combatant command headquarters personnel and resource
requirements that was directed in the committee report (H.
Rept. 113-102) accompanying the National Defense Authorization
Act for Fiscal Year 2014.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar
provision.
The agreement does not include this provision.
We note that the underlying House provision was
incorporated into another section of this Act.
Report related to nuclear forces, deterrence, nonproliferation, and
terrorism
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 910) that would
require that not later than 90 days after the date of enactment
the Secretary provide a report to the congressional defense
committees discussing how the Department of Defense (DOD) will
manage its mission with respect to issues related to nuclear
forces, deterrence, nonproliferation, and terrorism.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar
provision.
The agreement does not include this provision.
We note that this provision was included in the House bill
out of concern that the reorganization of the Undersecretary of
Defense for Policy which abolished the Assistant Secretary of
Defense for Global Strategic Affairs, would result in less
senior-level attention to nuclear forces, deterrence,
nonproliferation, and terrorism. In this most recent
reorganization, these subject areas are now transferred to the
Assistant Secretaries of Defense for Strategy, Plans and
Capabilities and Homeland Defense.
Section 1305 of the National Defense Authorization Act of
2008 (P.L. 110-417) noted similar concern regarding a lack of
focus on strategic and nuclear weapons policy shortly after the
2007 unauthorized transfer of nuclear weapons from Minot Air
Force Base, and recommended that the Secretary of Defense
should consider establishing a position, at the level of
Assistant Secretary of Defense or Deputy Under Secretary of
Defense, within the Office of the Under Secretary of Defense
for Policy to hold primary responsibility for the strategic and
nuclear weapons policy of DOD.
We understand that this recent reorganization was part of a
larger effort to obtain efficiencies across the DOD but we
remain concerned that appropriate focus should be kept on the
topics of nuclear forces, deterrence, nonproliferation, and
terrorism to avoid a repeat of past mistakes, such as at Minot
Air Force Base in 2007.
We request a report no later than 90 days after the date of
enactment to the congressional defense committees on how the
Secretary of Defense, through the Undersecretary of Defense for
Policy, shall manage an appropriate focus on the missions
associated with nuclear forces, deterrence, nonproliferation,
and terrorism.
Assignment of certain new requirements based on determinations of cost-
efficiency
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 913) that would
require that when assigning a new Department of Defense work
requirement to military or civilian personnel, or to a
contractor, the assignment shall be made based on a
determination of which workforce can perform the work in the
most cost-efficient manner except in cases where the new
requirement is inherently governmental, closely associated with
inherently governmental functions, critical, or required by law
to be performed by military personnel or civilian personnel.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar
provision.
The agreement does not include this provision.
Prohibition on conversion of functions performed by civilian or
contractor personnel to performance by military personnel
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 914) that would
clarify when military personnel can be used to perform
functions that are currently being performed by civilian or
contractor personnel and would codify relevant Department of
Defense instructions and policies.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar
provision.
The agreement does not include this provision.
Notification of compliance with section relating to procurement of
services
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 915) that would
require the Secretary of Defense to ensure compliance with
existing law regarding appropriate manpower performance and
provide written notification of compliance to the congressional
defense committees. This section would also require the
Comptroller General of the United States to conduct a review of
such a notification and report to the congressional defense
committees within 120 days after the date of the provision of
such a notification.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar
provision.
The agreement does not include this provision.
Public release by Inspectors General of reports of misconduct
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 924) that would
amend sections 141, 3020, 5020, and 8020 of title 10, United
States Code, to require Department of Defense and military
department Inspectors General to publicly release reports of
administrative investigation that confirm misconduct of any
member of the Senior Executive Service, political appointee, or
commissioned officer in the Armed Forces in pay grades O-6 or
above.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar
provision.
The agreement does not include this provision.

counterterrorism campaign in the Republic of Colombia
originally authorized by section 1021 of the Ronald W. Reagan
National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2005 (Public
Law 108-375), and most recently amended by section 1011 of the
National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2014 (Public

extend, by 3 years, the authority of the Department of Defense
(DOD) to provide additional support for counter-drug activities
of other governmental agencies originally authorized by section
1004 of the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year
1991 (Public Law 101-510), and most recently amended by section
1005 of the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year
2012 (Public Law 112-81).
The Senate committee-reported bill contained a similar
provision (sec. 1014) that would amend section 1004 of the
National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 1991 (Public
Law 101-510), as most recently amended by section 1005 of the
National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2012 (Public
Law 112-81), to authorize DOD to provide additional support for
activities of other governmental agencies to counter
transnational organized crime (TOC) in addition to its
counterdrug activities. The provision would also extend the
underlying authority through the end of fiscal year 2020 and
reduce the dollar threshold for a notification on facilities
projects to the congressional defense committees.
The agreement includes the Senate provision with an
amendment that would modify the length of the extension of the
underlying authority to 3 fiscal years, provide a definition of
transnational organized crime, and other conforming
modifications.
Availability of funds for additional support for counterdrug activities
of certain foreign governments (sec. 1013)
The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision
(sec. 1013) that would amend section 1033 of the National
Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 1998 (Public Law 105-
85), as most recently amended by section 1013 of the National
Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2014 (Public Law 113-
66). Specifically, the provision would extend the Department of
Defense's (DOD) authority to provide additional support for
counter-drug activities of certain foreign governments through
fiscal year 2020, as well as increase the cap on the limitation
on obligations from $100.0 million to $125.0 million per fiscal
year.
The House bill contained no similar provision.
The agreement includes the Senate provision with an
amendment that would strike the proposed extension of the
underlying authority.
Extension and modification of authority for joint task forces
supporting law enforcement agencies conducting activities to
counter transnational organized crime to support law
enforcement agencies conducting counter-terrorism activities
(sec. 1014)
The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision
(sec. 1012) that would amend section 1022 of the National
Defense Authorization Act of Fiscal Year 2004 (Public Law 108-
136), as most recently amended by section 1012 of the National
Defense Authorization Act of Fiscal Year 2014 (Public Law 113-
66), to: (1) Extend the underlying authority through fiscal
year 2020; (2) Expand the scope of the Department of Defense
(DOD) authority to provide support to U.S. law enforcement
agencies for counterterrorism purposes when a nexus exists
between drug trafficking or transnational organized crime (TOC)
and a foreign terrorist organization; (3) Make a series of
technical modifications; and (4) Expand the authority of DOD to

should continue to support programs that combat illicit
networking in the United Mexican States and Central America.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar
provision.
The agreement includes the House provision with a technical
and clarifying amendment.
Subtitle C--Naval Vessels and Shipyards
Definition of combatant and support vessel for purposes of the annual
plan and certification relating to budgeting for construction
of naval vessels (sec. 1021)
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1021) that would
define the term ``combatant and support vessel'' that is used
to prepare the Department of the Navy's 30-year shipbuilding
plan.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar
provision.
The agreement includes this provision.
National Sea-Based Deterrence Fund (sec. 1022)
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1022) that would
create a National Sea-Based Deterrence Fund to manage the
obligation and expenditures for the advanced procurement or
construction of nuclear-powered strategic ballistic missile
submarines. The provision would also authorize the Secretary of
Defense to transfer up to $3.5 billion to the Fund from
unobligated balances from fiscal years 2014, 2015, and 2016.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained a similar
provision (sec. 1002) that would create a fund to manage the
construction (including design of vessels), purchase,
alteration, and conversion of strategic missile submarines.
The agreement includes a provision that would create a
National Sea-Based Deterrence Fund to manage the construction
(including design of vessels), purchase, alteration, and
conversion of strategic missile submarines. The provision would
also authorize the transfer of unobligated balances as proposed
in the House bill.
Limitation on use of funds for inactivation of U.S.S. George Washington
(sec. 1023)
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1024) that would
prohibit spending more than 50 percent of the funds authorized
and appropriated for the Office of the Secretary of Defense
until the Secretary of Defense obligates funds for commencing,
planning, and buying long lead time materials for the refueling
and complex overhaul of the USS George Washington (CVN-73).
The Senate committee-reported bill contained a similar
provision (sec. 1021) that would prohibit spending any funds
for inactivation of the USS George Washington unless such tasks
are identical to tasks that would be necessary to conduct a
refueling and complex overhaul of the vessel.
The agreement includes the Senate provision.
We note that the administration did not include a budget
request to support the nuclear refueling and complex overhaul
of the USS George Washington (CVN-73) in fiscal year 2015. In a
report to Congress titled ``Estimated Impacts of Sequestration-
Level Funding'' dated April 2014, the Department of Defense
indicated that ``if Congress acts to support outyear funding at
the PB15 level, the additional $6.3B necessary to retain CVN 73
would be reflected in next year's budget.''
Consistent with section 5062 of title 10, United States
Code, and multiple testimonies from the combatant commanders,
we believe that Congress has been unambiguous about the support
of 11 operational aircraft carriers and have provided
sufficient authorization of appropriations in this Act to
maintain this carrier force structure. We fully anticipate that
the administration will support a budget request for fiscal
year 2016 that is consistent with title 10, United States Code.
Sense of Congress recognizing the anniversary of the sinking of U.S.S.
Thresher (sec. 1024)
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1025) that would
express the sense of Congress in recognition of the anniversary

The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar
provision.
The agreement includes this provision.
Pilot program for sustainment of Littoral Combat Ships on extended
deployments (sec. 1025)
The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision
(sec. 1023) that would provide additional flexibility for the
Secretary of the Navy to maintain Littoral Combat Ships (LCS)
by allowing government personnel or U.S. contractor personnel
to conduct corrective and preventive maintenance on an LCS
vessel regardless of the ship's location.
The House bill contained no similar provision.
The agreement includes the Senate provision with an
amendment that would allow the Secretary of the Navy to
establish a pilot program for conducting corrective and
preventive maintenance or repair on LCS vessels operating on
extended deployment, performed by United States Government
personnel or United States contractor personnel. The Secretary
would also be required to prepare a report 120 days after
completion of this LCS sustainment pilot program and submit
that report to the congressional defense committees.
Availability of funds for retirement or inactivation of Ticonderoga
class cruisers or dock landing ships (sec. 1026)
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1026) that would
limit the obligation and expenditure of funds authorized to be
appropriated or otherwise made available for fiscal year 2015
for the retirement, inactivation, or storage of Ticonderoga-
class cruisers and Whidbey Island-class amphibious ships. This
section would also require the modernization of two
Ticonderoga-class cruisers to begin in fiscal year 2015.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained a similar
provision (sec. 1022) that would establish rules under which
the Navy could use resources in the Ship, Modernization,
Operations, and Sustainment Fund (SMOSF) to implement a plan
to: (1) Retain 11 Ticonderoga-class cruisers and nine Whidbey
Island-class and Harpers Ferry-class dock landing ships in
active service; (2) Temporarily inactivate 11 Ticonderoga-class
cruisers and three Whidbey Island-class dock landing ships; (3)
Modernize the inactivated ships during the period of their
inactivation; and (4) Reactivate those ships to replace
cruisers and dock landing ships retiring at the end of their
expected service lives.
The agreement contains the House provision with an
amendment that would direct Navy to induct two cruisers for
modernization with fiscal year 2015 funds. The provision would
also establish rules under which the Navy could use resources
in the SMOSF account to modernize and retain the cruisers and
dock landing ships.
We are specifically not prohibiting the Navy from assigning
crews to other duties ashore during the duration of the
modernization. The Navy has previously modernized a number of
ship classes that resulted in significant time out of service
for individual vessels. In those instances, the Navy made
substantial but temporary reductions in the crew size. We
believe that the temporary reductions should be commensurate
with the period of the availability. We direct the Secretary of
the Navy to ensure that the Navy does adequate planning and
preparation to ensure that the crews for cruisers and dock
landing ships emerging from a SMOSF-funded modernization period
are ready when the ship is delivered from modernization
activities and returned to the fleet. We also expect the
Secretary to ensure that these ships are maintained in the
inventory until the end their expected service lives, excluding
time spent in a phased modernization status.
Subtitle D--Counterterrorism
Extension of authority to make rewards for combating terrorism (sec.
1031)
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1031) that would
extend the authority through fiscal year 2015 for the Secretary
of Defense to offer and make rewards to a person providing
information or nonlethal assistance to U.S. Government
personnel or government personnel of allied forces
participating in a combined operation with U.S. Armed Forces
conducted outside the United States against international
terrorism or providing such information or assistance that is
beneficial to force protection associated with such an
operation.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar
provision.
The agreement includes the House provision.
Prohibition on use of funds to construct or modify facilities in the
United States to house detainees transferred from United States
Naval Station, Guantanamo Bay, Cuba (sec. 1032)
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1032) that would
prohibit the use of funds available to the Department of
Defense (DOD) through December 31, 2015, to modify or construct
any facility in the United States, its territories, or
possessions to house detainees transferred from the U.S. Naval
Station, Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, for purposes of detaining or
imprisoning such detainees under DOD custody or control unless
authorized by Congress.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar
provision.
The agreement includes the House provision with an
amendment to extend an identical prohibition contained in
section 1033 of the National Defense Authorization Act for
Fiscal Year 2014 (Public Law 113-66) by 1 year through December
31, 2015.
Prohibition on the use of funds for the transfer or release of
individuals detained at United States Naval Station, Guantanamo
Bay, Cuba (sec. 1033)
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1033) that would
prohibit the use of funds available to the Department of
Defense to transfer or release any detainee at U.S. Naval
Station, Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, to or within the United States,
its territories, or possessions through December 31, 2015.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar
provision.
The agreement includes the House provision with an
amendment to extend an identical prohibition contained in
section 1034 of the National Defense Authorization Act or
Fiscal Year 2014 (Public Law 113-66), by 1 year through
December 31, 2015.
Subtitle E--Miscellaneous Authorities and Limitations
Modification of Department of Defense authority for humanitarian
demining assistance and stockpiled conventional munitions
assistance programs (sec. 1041)
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1041) that would
modify the reporting requirements and definitions contained in
section 407 of title 10, United States Code, regarding
humanitarian demining assistance and stockpiled conventional
munitions assistance.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained a similar
provision (sec. 1201) that would modify the definitions
contained in section 407 of title 10, United States Code,
regarding humanitarian demining assistance and stockpiled
conventional munitions assistance.
The agreement includes the House provision.
Airlift service (sec. 1042)
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 822) that would
amend chapter 157 of title 10, United States Code, by inserting
a new section that would require transportation of passengers
or property by Civil Reserve Air Fleet (CRAF)-eligible aircraft
obtained by the Secretary of Defense or the Secretary of a
military department through a contract for airlift service to
be provided only by a covered air carrier.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar
provision.
The agreement includes the House provision with an
amendment that would conform the provision to language on the
same matter contained in title 49, United States Code.
As operations in the U.S. Central Command area of
responsibility draw down, there will be reduced demand for
airlift.
The CRAF program was created to ensure the nation can
address airlift requirements despite fluctuations in
requirements over time. During this transition back to pre-1990
levels of demand for airlift services, we believe it is
imperative to maintain both organic and commercial capacities
to meet operational demands and unknown future requirements.
Therefore, we direct the Department of Defense (DOD) to
work closely with CRAF program partners to ensure that DOD
establishes ``appropriate levels for peacetime cargo airlift
augmentation in order to promote the effectiveness of the Civil
Reserve Air Fleet and provide training within the military
aircraft system,'' as directed in the National Airlift Policy.
Authority to accept certain voluntary legal support services (sec.
1043)
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1042) that would
amend section 1588 of title 10, United States Code, to
authorize service secretaries to accept voluntary legal support
services provided by law students or persons studying to be a
paralegal, when such services are provided under the direct
supervision of an attorney through internship and externship
programs approved by the secretary concerned.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained a similar
provision (sec. 1043) that would authorize service secretaries
to accept voluntary legal support services provided by law
students through internship and externship programs approved by
the secretary concerned.
The agreement includes the Senate provision.

of mitigation efforts, a description of the resources dedicated
to efforts relating to such compromises, a description of the
Secretary's plan to continue evaluating and mitigating any
damages, and a general description and estimate of the cost
associated with mitigating such compromises. This section would
also require updates to the initial report on a semiannual
basis during calendar years 2015-18.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar
provision, but the classified annex to the Senate report
accompanying S. 2410 (S. Rept. 113-176) of the Carl Levin
National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2015 also
included direction for DOD on this issue.
The agreement includes the House provision with an
amendment that would sunset the reporting requirement after

reporting. However, we understand that the Information Review
Task Force, within the Defense Intelligence Agency, and the
Mitigation Oversight Task Force, within the Joint Staff, are
already producing quarterly reports regarding the disclosure
and mitigation measures. Providing the Mitigation Oversight
Task Force and Information Review Task Force reports to the
appropriate congressional committees, will be considered

General of the United States to submit a report on its review
of Department of Defense and Department of the Army analysis
and plans for force structure and mix changes.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar
provision.
The agreement includes this provision with an amendment
that would clarify the elements of the required Comptroller
General assessment. The agreement would also strike the
limitations on end strength reductions and the transfer of
National Guard helicopters because these limitations are
addressed elsewhere in this Act.

privity of contract, the earlier of either 60 days after final
judgment by a court or 6 years after the date of the loss.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar
provision.
The agreement includes this provision.
Pilot program for the Human Terrain System (sec. 1075)
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1074) that would
require the Secretary of the Army to conduct a pilot program to
use Human Terrain System assets in the U.S. Pacific Command

deliverables, and resources needed to execute the program. The
brief should include an assessment of the value of the program
in comparison to the various other analytic tools and
techniques that are at the disposal of the military.
Clarification of policies on management of special use airspace of
Department of Defense (sec. 1076)
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1075) that would
allow the Secretary of Defense to enter into a memorandum of
understanding with a non-Department of Defense (DOD) entity
that is engaged in the test range program authorized under
section 332(c) of the Federal Aviation Administration
Modernization and Reform Act of 2012 (Public Law 112-95). Such
entity would be allowed access to non-regulatory special use
airspace if such access is used by the entity as part of such
test range program and such access would not interfere with the
activities of the Secretary or otherwise interrupt or delay
missions or training of the DOD.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar
provision. A proposed amendment to the Senate committee-
reported bill (amendment number 3578) contained a provision
that would allow the Secretary of Defense to authorize use by
another department or agency of the Federal government of
special use airspace at a DOD installation if such use would
support or benefit DOD, or support some national security
interest. Access could not be granted if the use of airspace
would interfere with the assigned mission of the commander of
the installation.
The agreement contains the House provision with an
amendment that would direct DOD to issue guidance clarifying
policies on the appropriate management of special use airspace
within DOD, and on policies governing access by users from
outside the DOD to special use airspace managed by DOD. The
provision would require the Secretary of Defense to issue such
guidance within 90 days of enactment of this Act, and to
provide the congressional defense committees a briefing on such
guidance within 120 days of enactment of this Act.
The Joint Explanatory Statement accompanying the National
Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2014 (Public Law 113-
66) noted that: (1) developing established procedures to
integrate unmanned aircraft systems into the National Airspace
System will be very important in allowing both DOD and non-DOD
entities to train with and operate unmanned aircraft systems on
a routine basis; and (2) developing these procedures could
include the use of FAA-designated DOD non-regulatory special
use airspace.
Subsequently, DOD released guidance to the Services and DOD
components to prescribe guidelines for local commanders to
grant access to special use airspace. DOD officials assure us
that their guidance was not intended to prevent local
commanders from exercising authority to allow access within the
DOD guidelines. Nevertheless, we understand that local
commanders have interpreted the DOD guidelines as either
allowing or preventing the local installation commander from
negotiating a memorandum of understanding (MOU) under which
access to special use airspace could be granted.
The provision would direct the Secretary of Defense to move
expeditiously to correct such misunderstandings of the
guidelines on access to special use airspace, including the
authority of local commanders to enter into a memorandum of
understanding for the use of special use airspace by any
department or agency of the Federal Government, or state
governments, to include those engaged in the Federal Aviation
Administration test range program, participating in the Robotic
Aircraft for Public Safety program, or participating in other
activities of a similar nature.

community outreach events (sec. 1077)
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 354) that would
authorize service secretaries to enter into a contract or
agreement with a non-federal civic organization to conduct or
support an air show or open house to feature any unit,
aircraft, vessel, equipment, or servicemembers under the
jurisdiction of the secretary, and would authorize the
secretary to charge or authorize a nominal admission fee to
attend a military air show or open house.
The House bill also contained a provision (sec. 355) to
amend section 974 of title 10, United States Code, to require
the secretary concerned to accept contributions of money,
personal property, or services on the condition that such
money, property, or services be used for the benefit of a
military musical unit under the jurisdiction of the Secretary.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision
(sec. 1065) that would require the Secretary of Defense to
submit to the congressional defense committees a report on the
policies of the Department of Defense (DOD) on the involvement
of non-federal entities in DOD community outreach events that
feature any unit, aircraft, vessel, equipment, or members of
the Armed Forces.
The agreement includes the Senate provision with an
amendment that would require the Secretary of Defense to submit
to the Committees on Armed Services of the Senate and the House
of Representatives, not later than 180 days after enactment of
this Act, a report on the policies of DOD on the involvement of
non-federal entities in DOD community outreach events
(including air shows, parades, open houses, and performances by
military musical units) that feature any unit, aircraft,
vessel, equipment, or members of the Armed Forces in order to
increase the involvement of non-federal entities in such
events.
Notification of foreign threats to information technology systems
impacting national security (sec. 1078)
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1083) that would
require the Secretary of Defense and the Director of National
Intelligence to submit to the appropriate congressional
committees a notification of each instance in which the
Secretary or the Director determine through analysis or
reporting that an information technology or telecommunications
component from a company suspected of being influenced by a
foreign country, or a suspected affiliate of such a company, is
competing for or has been awarded a contract to include the
technology of such company or such affiliate into a covered
network. Each notification would be required to include:
(1) A description of each such instance, including an
identification of the company of interest and the
network affected;
(2) An analysis of the potential risks and the
actions that can be taken to mitigate such risks; and
(3) A description of any follow up or other response
actions to be taken.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar
provision.
The agreement includes the House provision with an
amendment that would limit the application of the provision to
the Secretary of Defense and the reportable instances to
threats to information technology or network components by an
agent of a foreign power in which compromises would pose a
significant risk to the programs and operations of the
Department of Defense. In addition, the Secretary of Defense
would be required to work with other appropriate government
agencies to develop a plan to respond to the reported instance.
The provision makes clear that the Secretary shall use existing
authorities and open source information to make determinations
regarding reportable instances.
Pilot program to rehabilitate and modify homes of disabled and low-
income veterans (sec. 1079)
The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision
(sec. 1085) that would require the Secretary of Housing and
Urban Development to conduct a pilot program to award grants to
qualified non-profit organizations to rehabilitate and modify
the primary residence of eligible veterans.
The House bill contained no similar provision.
The agreement includes the Senate provision with an
amendment that would limit the use of funds under this program
to those veterans who the Secretary determines are residing in,
and reasonably intend to continue residing in, a primary
residence owned by such veterans or family members. The
amendment would also strike language in the underlying Senate
provision that would have required the Secretary to adhere to
certain preferences in awarding grants under the pilot program,
and would have limited qualified organizations to those
possessing certain expertise or other criteria.
Legislative Provisions Not Adopted
Repeal of limitation on Inspector General audits of certain financial
statements
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1002) that would
repeal the limitation on Inspector General audits of certain

The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision
(sec. 1003) pertaining to sequestration.
The House bill contained no similar provision.
The agreement does not include this provision.
Management of Defense information systems
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1004) that would
amend section 2222 of title 10, United States Code, to expand
certification requirements, investment review processing and
enterprise architecture requirements from defense business
systems to all defense information technology systems.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar
provision.
The agreement does not include this provision.
Elsewhere in this report, we have expressed our concerns
over the Department of Defense's (DOD) ability to effectively
and efficiently acquire the information technology systems it
will need. While part of that challenge is in the acquisition
process, we also recognize that a significant problem in DOD's
larger management and oversight for IT investments. For
example, in our discussions with industry on acquisition
improvement, we received suggestions for improving the
requirements generation and validation process, as well as
aligning IT outcomes with the strategic goals of the
organization. These things require a robust management process,
and should inform acquisition, not the other way around.
We believe that DOD has a valuable process established in
section 2222 of title 10, United States Code for dealing with
defense business systems. We see value in having that process
expanded to each of the various IT mission areas, especially
the processes that conduct business process reengineering (BPR)
prior to making acquisition decisions. Currently, the Deputy
Chief Management Officer is focused on business systems, but we
think their role could be extended to apply process improvement
and BPR techniques to DOD's other IT mission areas as well.
We recognize it may be premature at this point, though, to
make such significant changes. We understand DOD is reviewing
its internal processes, and new leadership is looking to mold
the organization in a way to achieve its strategic goals. We
look forward to seeing how these efforts progress, and will
consider if similar actions that were proposed by the House
bill may be warranted in the future.
Report on auditable financial statements
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1005) that would
require a report on auditable financial statements.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar

its semi-annual report on the Financial Improvement and Audit
Readiness (FIAR) plan, required by section 1003(b) of the
National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2010 (P.L.
111-84).
We also note that DOD posts its semi-annual reports on the
FIAR plan electronically on a website for public review.
Report on implementing audit reporting requirements
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1006) that would
require a report on implementing certain audit reporting
requirements.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar
provision.
The agreement does not include this provision.

appeal cases from the Merit Systems Protection Board to the
United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit or any
court of appeals of competent jurisdiction.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar
provision.
The agreement does not include this provision.
We note that this provision was enacted in the All Circuit
Review Extension Act (Public Law 113-170).
Pay parity for Department of Defense employees employed at joint bases
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1107) that would
require that when the constituent installations of a joint

The agreement includes the House provision with an
amendment that would extend the GSCF authority for 2 years and
make a clarifying amendment.
We expect that any small-scale military construction
projects authorized under this section would be a supporting,
logical component of a comprehensive GSCF program, and not a
stand-alone project.

respond to incidents involving weapons of mass destruction
(sec. 1202)

include a limitation on the authorized number of liaison
officers and amount of unreimbursed support for travel,
subsistence, and medical care expenses per fiscal year for any

has credible information that such unit has committed a gross

amendment that would make technical changes and incorporate the
requirement to submit an annual report from section 1204 of

Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2006 (Public Law 109-163), as
amended (the ``section 1206 authority''). The provision would
also modify the limitations on the amount of funds that could
be used under the section 1206 authority.
The House bill contained no similar provision.
The agreement includes the Senate provision with a number
of technical and clarifying amendments.
We expect that any small-scale military construction
projects authorized under this section would be a supporting,
logical component of a comprehensive section 1206 program, and
not a stand-alone project.
Training of security forces and associated security ministries of
foreign countries to promote respect for the rule of law and
human rights (sec. 1206)
The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision
(sec. 1204) that would authorize the Secretary of Defense to
conduct human rights training of security forces and associated
ministries of foreign countries. The provision would require
that the activities conducted pursuant to this section have the

define the activities considered to be human rights training.
The House bill contained no similar provision.
The agreement includes the Senate provision with a
clarifying amendment.
Not later than 180 days after the enactment of this Act,
the Secretary of Defense, in coordination with the Secretary of

associated with this new authority and other related matters
deemed appropriate by the Secretary of Defense.
Cross servicing agreements for loan of personnel protection and
personnel survivability equipment in coalition operations (sec.
1207)
The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision
(sec. 1207) that would codify in title 10, United States Code,
an authority for the Secretary of Defense to enter into
arrangements under acquisition and cross servicing agreements
(ACSA) to loan equipment for personnel protection and personnel
survivability. The provision would authorize such loans to
coalition forces for their use in coalition operations with the
United States as part of a contingency operation or a
peacekeeping operation under the United Nations Charter or
another international agreement. The provision would also
include a waiver of the requirement to reimburse the United
States for the loss of such equipment in the event it is

end of fiscal year 2019 for the Secretary of Defense, with the
concurrence of the Secretary of State, to enter into
arrangements to use ACSAs to loan personnel protection and
personnel survivability equipment to coalition forces
participating in such coalition operations with the United
States. The agreement would also authorize the loaning of such
equipment in connection with the training of coalition forces
to be deployed to those operations.
We note that a similar authority to loan personnel
protection and personnel survivability equipment under ACSAs to
allies and other partners has made an important contribution to
coalition operations in Afghanistan. The Department of Defense
has interpreted this temporary authority narrowly, and we urge
the Department to take a similar approach in the implementation
of any program under this section.
Extension and modification of authority for support of special
operations to combat terrorism (sec. 1208)

provision (sec. 1208) that would extend the authority through
fiscal year 2016, and increase the annual cap on the authority
from $50.0 million to $60.0 million.

of the Syrian regime; (2) Protecting the United States, our
friends and allies, and the Syrian people from terrorist
elements; and (3) Promoting the conditions for a negotiated
settlement to end the conflict in Syria. The provision would
also establish requirements for an element of the Syrian
opposition to be deemed vetted, permit the Secretary of Defense
to provide assistance to third countries for purposes of the
provision of training and equipment, and provide the authority
to accept contributions from other nations. The Secretary of
State's concurrence would be required to conduct activities
under this authority.
The House bill contained no similar provision.
The agreement includes the Senate provision with a
clarifying amendment.
We note that the agreement includes language similar to the
Continuing Appropriations Resolution, 2015 (Public Law 113-164)
to provide assistance to the appropriately vetted elements of
the Syrian opposition.
Additionally, we note that sustainment, at a minimum,
includes the provision of logistics, intelligence,
communications, and other enabling support necessary to
maintain operations in support of the mission; supply of food,
fuel, arms, munitions, and equipment; maintenance of equipment;
and repair and renovation of facilities.

articles to foreign forces training with the United States
Armed Forces (sec. 1210)

multilateral training activities.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar
provision.
The agreement includes the House provision with an
amendment that would authorize the Secretary of Defense to use
up to $10.0 million in each of fiscal years 2015 and 2016 to
provide logistic support for the transfer of excess defense
articles in Afghanistan to the military forces of countries
with which the U.S. Armed Forces plan to conduct bilateral or
multilateral training overseas during those fiscal years.
Biennial report on programs carried out by the Department of Defense to
provide training, equipment, or other assistance or
reimbursement to foreign security forces (sec. 1211)
The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision
(sec. 1211) that would require a biennial report to Congress in
fiscal years 2016, 2018, and 2020 on the Department of Defense

assistance or reimbursement to foreign security forces.

and clarifying amendments.

coalition nations for support provided to United States
military operations (sec. 1222)

Defense to reimburse coalition nations for support provided to
the United States for military operations in Operation Enduring
Freedom in Afghanistan, and make certain technical amendments.

provision (sec. 1224) that would extend for 1 year the
authority under section 1233 of Public Law 110-181, as amended.

funds, no more than $900.0 million would be available for
Pakistan. The provision would also extend certain notification
and certification requirements relating to any payments under

for Pakistan unless the Secretary can make certain additional
certifications regarding Pakistan's military operations in
North Waziristan.
The agreement includes the Senate provision with an
amendment that would expand the authority under section 1233 of
Public Law 110-181 to allow the Secretary of Defense to
reimburse coalition nations for support provided to U.S.
military operations in Iraq or in Operation Enduring Freedom in
Afghanistan. The amendment to the Senate provision would also
increase the amount of funding authorized under this section
for Pakistan to $1.0 billion. The amendment would clarify the
additional certification requirements that the Secretary would
need to make to invoke the waiver with regard to the full
amount of funding authorized under this section for Pakistan.
One-year extension of logistical support for coalition forces
supporting certain United States military operations (sec.
1223)
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1213) that would
extend certain authorities for the support of coalition forces
participating with the United States in military operations in

section 1234 of the National Defense Authorization Act for
Fiscal Year 2008 (Public Law 110-181); and (2) use acquisition
and cross-servicing agreements to lend those forces certain

provision (sec. 1225) that would extend the authority under
section 1234 of Public Law 110-181 to provide logistical
support to coalition forces participating with the United
States in military operations in Afghanistan.

amendment that would expand this authority to allow the
provision of logistical support to such coalition forces in
Afghanistan and Iraq.

may be provided special immigrant visa status in accordance
with section 602(b)(3) of the Afghan Allies Protection Act of

in which the principal alien must be employed by or on behalf
of the U.S. Government in the Islamic Republic of Afghanistan
to December 31, 2015. Additionally, this section would extend

defeat al-Qaeda, its affiliated groups, associated groups, and
adherents.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar
provision.
The agreement includes the House provision with a
clarifying amendment.
We expect the Department to provide a briefing to the
congressional defense committees on the process for developing
the independent assessment report, including an estimate of the
cost of preparing such an assessment.
Sense of Congress on security of Afghan women (sec. 1229)
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1220) that would
express the sense of Congress regarding the importance of the
security and civic participation of women for the development
and national security of Afghanistan and the need to increase
the number of women in the Afghan National Security Forces
(ANSF).
A proposed amendment to the Senate committee-reported bill
(amendment number 3715) contained a provision that would
express the sense of Congress that the United States should
continue to support the meaningful inclusion of women in the
political, economic, and security transition process in
Afghanistan. The Senate provision would also require a report
on the security of Afghan women and girls, including
information on the recruitment and retention of women in the

certain specific determinations regarding the project's

The agreement includes the Senate provision with an
amendment that would allow the use of up to $5.0 million in

encourage the transition of reintegration efforts from the
Department of Defense to the appropriate institutions of the
Government of Afghanistan, and accordingly expect that there
will not be a need for this DOD reintegration authority after
fiscal year 2015.
Clearance of unexploded ordnance on former United States training
ranges in Afghanistan (sec. 1233)
The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision
(sec. 1229) that would authorize the Secretary of Defense to

other available legal authority.
The House bill contained no similar provision.
The agreement includes this provision.
Report on bilateral security cooperation with Pakistan (sec. 1235)
The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision
(sec. 1228) that would require the Secretary of Defense, in
consultation with the Secretary of State, to submit a detailed
report to the appropriate committees of Congress on the nature
and extent of bilateral security cooperation between the United
States and Pakistan.
The House bill contained no similar provision.
The agreement includes the Senate provision with a
technical and clarifying amendment.
Authority to provide assistance to counter the Islamic State in Iraq
and the Levant (sec. 1236)
Following passage of the House bill and the Senate
committee-reported bill, the administration submitted to the
congressional defense committees a legislative proposal that
would authorize to be appropriated to the Iraq Train and Equip
Fund up to $1.6 billion to provide assistance to military and
other security forces of or associated with the Government of
Iraq, including Kurdish and tribal security forces, with a
national mission, to counter the Islamic State in Iraq and the
Levant (ISIL).
The agreement includes the proposal for the Iraq Train and
Equip Fund with certain technical and clarifying amendments.
Assistance under this section would be restricted to no more
than 25 percent of the amounts authorized until the Secretary
of Defense, in coordination with the Secretary of State,
submits a report on the plan for providing such assistance and
re-training and re-equipping the Iraqi Security Forces, and the
President submits a report on how such assistance fits within a
broader regional strategy.
We note the significant contribution that Kurdish security
forces have made to countering ISIL's advance. We understand
that the administration's plan includes assistance to train and
equip 3 brigades of Kurdish peshmerga. Accordingly, we expect
that a significant portion of the assistance under this
authority will be provided to meet the requirements of the
Kurdish security forces and urge the Secretary of Defense to
ensure that such assistance is delivered in a timely manner to
such forces. We further expect the Secretary of Defense to keep
the congressional defense committees fully informed as this
plan is developed and implemented, including any arrangements
to ensure that such assistance for Kurdish security forces is
promptly delivered to those forces.
The provision is also amended to add local security forces
with a national security mission to the list of forces
authorized to receive assistance under this section. We believe
that, for purposes of this section, local security forces
should include local forces that are committed to protecting
highly vulnerable ethnic and religious minority communities in
the Nineveh Plain and elsewhere from the ISIL threat.
We note that among the lessons learned from the execution
of previous large-scale train-and-equip funds in Iraq and
Afghanistan has been the need for high-level oversight and
requirements coordination, such as through the Afghanistan
Requirements Oversight Council (AROC), to ensure that
significant expenditures from the fund are aligned with
validated requirements and subject to adequate oversight. We
expect that the Department of Defense (DOD) will utilize a
mechanism and procedures similar to the AROC in carrying out
the program under the ITEF. Therefore, we direct the Secretary
of Defense to report to the congressional defense committees,
not later than 60 days after the date of enactment of this Act,
on the procedures and mechanism DOD will use to ensure that
major expenditures from the fund are made only pursuant to an
appropriately validated need and subject to adequate monitoring
and evaluation.

activities of the Office of Security Cooperation in Iraq (sec.

2012 (Public Law 112-81), as amended, for the use of Department
of Defense funds to support the operations and activities of
the Office of Security Cooperation in Iraq (OSC-I). The

that the OSC-I is authorized to conduct in support of the Iraqi
Ministry of Defense and the Counter Terrorism Service.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained a similar
provision (sec. 1231).
The agreement includes the House provision with an
amendment that would authorize the use of up to $140.0 million
to support OSC-I operations and activities during fiscal year
2015.
Subtitle C--Matters Relating to the Russian Federation
Limitation on military cooperation between the United States and the
Russian Federation (sec. 1241)
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1221) that would
prohibit the use of Department of Defense (DOD) funds for
fiscal year 2015 for bilateral military-to-military contact or
cooperation between the Governments of the United States and
the Russian Federation until the Secretary of Defense makes
certain specified certifications to the appropriate
congressional committees regarding Russia's actions in Ukraine,
its compliance with its arms control obligations, and its
foreign military sales or transfers.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained a similar
provision (sec. 1242(e)).
The agreement includes the House provision with an
amendment that would prohibit the use of DOD funds for fiscal
year 2015 for bilateral military-to-military cooperation
between the United States and the Russian Federation until the
Secretary of Defense, in coordination with the Secretary of
State, certifies that Russia has ceased its occupation of
Ukrainian territory and its aggressive activities that threaten
Ukraine and North Atlantic Treaty Organization members. The
amendment authorizes the Secretary of Defense to waive the
prohibition if the Secretary determines that doing so is in the
U.S. national security interest and the Secretary provides
prior notification to the appropriate committees of Congress,
including certain specified information.

provision.
The agreement includes a provision that would require the
President, not later than 30 days after the Russian Federation
provides notification to all States Parties to the Open Skies
Treaty (Treaty) of its intention to seek certification to
change, modify, or introduce a new aircraft or sensor under the
Treaty, to notify the appropriate committees of Congress and
provide the relevant details of the Russian proposal. The
provision would also require, not later than 30 days prior to
the date of intended approval of certification of such aircraft
or sensor by the United States, the Director of National
Intelligence, jointly with the Secretary of Defense and the
Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, and in consultation with
the Secretary of State, to submit to the appropriate committees
of Congress an assessment of the national security implications
for the United States of any new aircraft or sensor proposed to
be deployed by the Russian Federation under the Treaty.
Further, the provision would require that any such assessment
include a description of any plans by the United States to
mitigate any negative effect of the proposed new Russian sensor
or aircraft on the national security of the United States,
including an analysis of the costs and effectiveness of any
such plans.
In any case where an assessment of national security
implications is prepared in response to this provision, we
expect the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff to take into
account the views of the relevant regional and functional
combatant commander on the security implications of a proposed
Russian change in aircraft or sensor for Open Skies overflights
in their assigned area of responsibility. We note that the
Department of Defense committed to provide information
concerning the views of relevant regional and functional
combatant commanders relating to proposals under the Treaty to
the committees in November 2014.
Limitations on providing certain missile defense information to the
Russian Federation (sec. 1243)
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1223) that would
extend by 1 year the limitations in section 1246(c) of the
National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2014 (Public
Law 113-66) on providing certain missile defense information to
the Russian Federation. The provision would also place

committees on Russian non-compliance with the INF Treaty,
including elements set forth in section 1061 of the National
Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2014 (Public Law 113-
66). It would also require the Department of State, jointly
with the Department of Defense and other appropriate agencies,
to brief the appropriate congressional committees at the time
of submission of the report, and every 6 months thereafter
until the Russian Federation returns to compliance with its
obligations under the INF Treaty, on the status of efforts to
resolve U.S. concerns about Russian INF noncompliance. Finally,
in the event the President determines that Russia has deployed,
or intends to deploy, systems that violate the INF Treaty, it
would require the President to notify Congress promptly of such
a determination, and any plans to respond to such deployments.

provision (sec. 1243).
The agreement includes the House provision with an
amendment that would require the Secretary of Defense to submit

the Director of National Intelligence and the Secretary of
State throughout the preparation of the report required under
this section, including to avoid duplicative reporting.

with Rosoboronexport (sec. 1246)
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1229) that would
prohibit the use of Department of Defense (DOD) funds to enter
into a contract, memorandum of understanding, or cooperative
agreement with, to make a grant to, or to provide a loan or
loan guarantee to the Russian state corporation
Rosoboronexport. The provision included a national security
waiver of this prohibition if the Secretary of Defense submits
to the congressional defense committees certain detailed
certifications.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained a similar
provision (sec. 1267).
The agreement includes the House provision with technical
and clarifying amendments. The amendment would include a
limited waiver of the prohibition with respect to contracting
for spare parts or other activities related to the maintenance
of helicopters operated by the Afghan National Security Forces
or otherwise operated by DOD only if the Secretary submits to
the congressional defense committees a detailed certification
that the waiver is in the U.S. national security interest,
based on certain determinations by the Commander of U.S. forces
in Afghanistan and the Under Secretary of Defense for
Acquisition, Technology, and Logistics.
Report on the New START Treaty (sec. 1247)
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1230A) that
would limit the availability of fiscal year 2015 funds for
implementation of the New START Treaty unless the Secretary of

of specified conditions.
The Senate committee-reported bill included no similar
provision.
The agreement includes a provision that would require the
Secretary of Defense and the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of
Staff to jointly submit to the appropriate congressional
committees a report stating the reasons continued

the congressional defense committees and the Committee on
Foreign Relations of the Senate and the Committee on Foreign
Affairs of the House on the goals and objectives guiding
military-to-military engagement between the United States and
the Union of Burma, with a 5-year sunset.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision
(sec. 1210) that would require a certification of certain steps
by the Government of Burma to improve conditions before
security assistance would be authorized under this Act. The
provision also contained exceptions to that limitation for
human rights and disaster relief training, as well as a report
requirement on the strategy and plans for military-to-military
engagement between the U.S. Armed Forces and the Burma
military.
The agreement includes the Senate provision with an
amendment that would remove the certification requirement,
combine the reporting requirements from both provisions, and
authorize the human rights and disaster relief training
contained within the Senate provision with clarifying
modifications. The agreement also provides that no Department
of Defense assistance to the Government of Burma is authorized
by this Act except as provided in this section. If a decision
is made to engage in one of the authorized activities
enumerated in subsection (a), we expect the Secretary of
Defense to provide written notification to the Secretary of
State.
We note that there remains significant progress to be made
on: establishing civilian oversight of the Burma military,
implementing human rights reform in the Burma military, and
terminating military relations with North Korea. We also note
that the Government of Burma must take significant steps toward
establishing a transparent and inclusive process to amend the
constitution of Burma, including the full participation of the
political opposition and all ethnic minority groups in that
process.

Korean Peninsula. The provision would also require the
Secretary to brief Congress on the assessment.
The Senate committee-reported bill included no such
provision.
The agreement includes the House provision with a

require the Secretary of Defense to provide the congressional
defense committees and the Committee on Foreign Relations of
the Senate and the Committee on Foreign Affairs of the House of
Representatives a report on the maritime capabilities of
Taiwan. The provision also would express the sense of Congress
that the United States should consider opportunities to help
enhance the maritime capabilities of Taiwan.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar
provision.
The agreement includes the House provision with an
amendment that would expand the report to the self-defense
capabilities of Taiwan and express a sense of Congress that
reaffirms U.S. security commitments under the Taiwan Relations
Act (Public Law 96-8).
Independent assessment of the ability of the Department of Defense to
counter anti-access and area-denial strategies, capabilities,
and other key technologies of potential adversaries (sec. 1257)
The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision
(sec. 221) that would require the Secretary of Defense to task
the Defense Science Board or other independent group to examine
the potential specific challenges to U.S. military
technological superiority within the next 10 years, and the
specific planned responses by the Department of Defense (DOD)
to meet these challenges.
The House bill contained a similar provision (sec. 1237)
that would require the Secretary of Defense to enter into an
agreement with an independent entity to conduct an assessment
of anti-access and area-denial (A2AD) strategies and
capabilities that pose a threat to security in the Asia-Pacific
region and strategies to mitigate such threats.
The agreement includes the House provision with an
amendment that would require the Secretary of Defense to task
an independent entity to conduct an assessment of the ability
of the DOD to counter A2AD strategies, capabilities, and other
key technologies that could be implemented by potential
adversaries.
In the annual report to Congress on ``Military and Security
Developments Involving the People's Republic of China 2014,''
the Department of Defense notes that China continues to sustain
investments in key anti-access and area denial capabilities to
deter or counter third-party intervention in the region. The
Under Secretary of Defense for Acquisition, Technology and
Logistics has warned that America's ``technological superiority
is not assured,'' and that ``the Department of Defense is being
challenged in ways that I have not seen for decades,
particularly in the Asia-Pacific region.'' We share this
concern and believe that an independent assessment could help
focus the Department's investments and strategic thinking on
these challenges.
We remain concerned by questions regarding the relative
U.S. advantages in technological capabilities, which could be
undercut as advanced technologies continue to proliferate. The
potential for greater technological parity among adversaries
carries the risk of U.S. military forces operating without the
traditional level of overmatch needed to succeed swiftly in a
contingency, which raises further questions about the impact
that the loss of technological superiority would have on the
freedom of U.S. action in securing national security
objectives. These questions merit examination in the
assessment.
Elsewhere in this Act, we require the Secretary of Defense
to report on the Department's munitions strategy for United
States Pacific Command, based on a provision in the House bill
(sec. 1234). However, we believe that some of the reporting
elements contained in the House bill would be better suited to
this independent assessment. These include assessing other
countries' munitions programs, capabilities, and technologies
that could challenge U.S. deployed forces and military systems,
and providing recommendations for how the United States can
counter these challenges or restore, maintain, or expand U.S.
military technological advantages in munitions.
We expect, as part of the information, data, resources, and
analyses provided to the independent entity, the Department
also provide a baseline description of the counter-A2AD
policies, strategies, force posture, programs, capabilities,
systems and technologies that are currently in place or funded.
Sense of Congress reaffirming security cooperation with Japan and the
Republic of Korea (sec. 1258)
The House bill contained provisions (sec. 1238 and 1239)
that would express the sense of Congress to reaffirm the U.S.
security commitment to Japan and the Republic of Korea.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar
provision.
The agreement includes a merger of the two House provisions
with clarifying amendments.
Report on maritime security strategy in the Asia-Pacific region (sec.
1259)
The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision
(sec. 1245) that would require the President to submit to the

strategy of the Department of Defense with regard to maritime
security in the South China Sea and East China Sea. The
provision would also require an annual briefing on the military
to military engagement with the People's Republic of China.
The House bill contained no similar provision.
The agreement includes the Senate provision with a
clarifying amendment.
We direct that, not later than March 15, 2015, the
Secretary of Defense shall provide the congressional defense
committees a briefing (in classified form, if appropriate) on
the following:
(1) An assessment of the military to military
engagements between the United States and the People's
Republic of China in the previous 12 months, before
March 15, 2015, including an assessment of the success
of such engagements in meeting the objectives of the
Commander of the United States Pacific Command for such
engagements; and
(2) A detailed description of all planned and
potential military to military engagements between the
United States and the People's Republic of China for
the next 12 months, after March 15, 2015, including the
objectives of such engagements.
Sense of Congress on Taiwan maritime capabilities and exercise
participation (sec. 1259A)
The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision
(sec. 1212) that would express the sense of the Senate that
both Taiwan and the People's Republic of China should be
afforded the opportunity to participate in the humanitarian
assistance and disaster relief portions of future multilateral
exercises.
The House bill contained a similar provision (sec. 1236).
The agreement includes the Senate provision with an
amendment that would incorporate a section of the sense of
Congress from the House provision.
Modification of matters for discussion in annual reports of United
States-China Economic and Security Review Commission (sec.
1259B)
The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision
(sec. 1244) that would revise and update the matters for
discussion of the annual report of the United States-China
Economic and Security Review Commission.
The House bill contained no similar provision.
The agreement includes the Senate provision with a
clarifying amendment.

Affairs of the House of Representatives, the required national
security planning guidance, including any updates to such
guidance, to deny safe havens to al-Qaeda and its violent
extremist affiliates not later than October 1, 2014.

guidance that would describe the feasibility, resourcing,
authorities required, and potential benefit of conducting
multilateral training and equipping of military forces in
relevant countries.

provision.
The agreement includes the House provision with a
clarifying amendment.

provide the Secretary of Defense with an enhanced authority to
acquire products and services produced in the Republic of
Djibouti in support of Department of Defense (DOD) activities
in the U.S. Africa Command (AFRICOM) area of responsibility.
The Secretary would be required to make a determination that:
(1) The product or service is to be used only in support of DOD
activities in AFRICOM; (2) The limit on competition or
preference for Djiboutian products or services is vital to the
national security interest of the United States; (3) The
Djiboutian product or service is of equivalent quality to that
which would have been otherwise acquired; and (4) The

Should the Secretary secure additional long-term agreements
that provide for basing arrangements to support U.S. military
operations, particularly counterterrorism operations, support
to U.S. Department of State evacuation requirements, or force
protection operational requirement of AFRICOM, we will consider
a comparable acquisition preference.
Treatment of the Kurdistan Democratic Party and the Patriotic Union of
Kurdistan under the Immigration and Nationality Act (sec. 1264)
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1249) that would
authorize the Secretary of State, after consulting with the
Secretary of Homeland Security and the Attorney General, or the
Secretary of Homeland Security, after consulting with the
Secretary of State and Attorney General, to exclude the
Kurdistan Democratic Party (KDP) and the Patriotic Union of
Kurdistan (PUK) from the definition of a terrorist organization
under section 212(a)(3)(B)(vi)(III) of the Immigration and

The Senate committee-reported bill contained a similar
provision (sec. 1261).
The agreement includes the House provision with a technical
and clarifying amendment.
Prohibition on integration of missile defense systems of China into
missile defense systems of United States and sense of Congress
concerning integration of missile defense systems of Russia
into missile defense systems of NATO (sec. 1265)
The House Bill included a provision (sec. 1250) that would
limit the availability of fiscal year 2015 funds to integrate
missile defense systems of China into missile defense systems
of the United States. It would also limit the availability of
funds to integrate missile defense systems of Russia into
missile defense systems of the United States if such
integration would undermine the security of the United States
or the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO), unless the
Secretary of Defense could certify that Russia had met certain
specified conditions.

the security of the United States or NATO, respectively.
Limitation on availability of funds to implement the Arms Trade Treaty
(sec. 1266)
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1253) that would

noncompliance (sec. 1267)
The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision
(sec. 1262) that would require the Secretary of Defense to
notify the President if the Secretary has substantial reason to
believe that there is a potentially significant case of foreign
noncompliance with an arms control treaty to which the United
States is a party. The provision would also require the
Secretary to submit notice to certain Senate committees not
later than 30 days after such notification to the President.
The House bill contained no similar provision.
The agreement includes the Senate provision with an
amendment that would require the Secretary of Defense to notify
the President if, after consultation with the Secretary of
State and the Director of National Intelligence, the Secretary
of Defense has substantial reason to believe that there is a
case of foreign activity that would pose a significant threat
to United States national security interests and that may be
inconsistent with an arms control treaty to which the United
States is a party, and such case is not included in the most
recent annual arms control compliance report, or is
significantly different from a case included in such report. If
the President receives such a notification from the Secretary
of Defense, the provision would require the President to

Augmentation Units utilized during the previous year or those
utilized as of the date of this Act to improve security at
high-threat, high-risk facilities as well as an evaluation of
any impediments to the effectiveness of such units. We expect
this assessment will analyze the integration of such units into
relevant policies, plans, and reviews, to include, but not be

express the sense of Congress that the defense modernization
program of Poland presents an important opportunity for
strengthening the U.S.-Poland bilateral relationship.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar
provision.
The agreement includes the House provision with an
amendment that would express the sense of Congress that the
United States should work with North Atlantic Treaty
Organization (NATO) members as they seek to modernize their
defense capabilities to encourage them to procure defense
systems, including air and missile defense systems, that are
interoperable with NATO defense systems and help fill critical
NATO shortfalls.
We agree with the NATO Wales Summit Declaration, issued by
heads of state on September 5, 2014, that it is important that
the NATO member states ``reverse the trend in declining defence
budgets, to make the most effective use of our funds and to
further a more balanced sharing of costs and
responsibilities.''
We, therefore, support NATO member states like the Republic
of Poland that are planning to invest significantly in the
modernization of their defense capabilities, including Poland's
decision to procure air and missile defense systems for the
Polish Army by 2022. We understand Poland's overall investment
plan will bring it above the 2 percent of gross domestic
product pledge for NATO members' national defense spending,
which was reaffirmed by NATO in Wales. We believe these are
important investments that could contribute to key alliance
security commitments.
We direct the Secretary of Defense to report to the
congressional defense committees, and the Committee on Foreign
Relations of the Senate and the Committee on Foreign Affairs of
the House, not later than 60 days after enactment of this Act,
on the benefits to the security of the Alliance that would
result from the procurement of interoperable American air and
missile defense technology by NATO members.
Report on protection of cultural property in event of armed conflict
(sec. 1273)
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1269) that would
require the Secretary of Defense to report to Congress on

the 1954 Hague Convention for the Protection of Cultural
Property in the Event of Armed Conflict.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar
provision.
The agreement includes the House provision with technical
and clarifying amendments.
United States strategy and plans for enhancing security and stability
in Europe (sec. 1274)
The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision
(sec. 1242) that would require the Secretary of Defense, in
consultation with the Secretary of State, to submit to the
appropriate congressional committees a strategy for enhancing
security and stability in Europe.
The House bill contained no similar provision.
The agreement includes the Senate provision with an
amendment that would require the Secretary of Defense to
conduct a review of the force posture, readiness, and
responsiveness of U.S. forces and the forces of other North
Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) members in Europe, and the
contingency plans for those U.S. forces, to ensure they are
appropriate to meet the obligation of collective self-defense
under the North Atlantic Treaty. The amendment would also
require the Secretary of Defense, in coordination with the
Secretary of State, to submit a report to the appropriate
committees of Congress on a strategy and plans for enhancing
security and stability in Europe. The report would include a
plan for reassuring NATO members regarding the U.S. and NATO
commitments to collective self-defense under the North Atlantic
Treaty, and a plan on enhancing U.S. security cooperation with
NATO partner nations.
We expect that at the time the report required under this
section is submitted, the Department of Defense will brief the
Armed Services Committees of the Senate and the House of
Representatives on the findings of the review, including those
relating to U.S. contingency plans. We also expect the
Secretary of Defense, in developing the plan on enhancing U.S.
security cooperation with NATO partner nations, to take into
consideration a partner nation's commitment to upholding and
enhancing regional security and stability.
Report on military assistance to Ukraine (sec. 1275)
The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision

The agreement includes the Senate provision with an
amendment that would express the sense of Congress regarding
the provision of nonlethal and lethal U.S. military assistance
to Ukraine to the extent such assistance is defensive and non-
provocative. The agreement also includes a technical amendment
to the reporting requirement in the Senate provision.
Sense of Congress on efforts to remove Joseph Kony from the battlefield
and end the atrocities of the Lord's Resistance Army (sec.

the total program funding exceeds $50,000,000, that there shall
be appointed an on-site manager from employees of the Federal

activities with Russian Federation (sec. 1334)

limit Cooperative Threat Reduction funding in fiscal year 2015
to the Russian Federation until the Secretary of Defense, in
coordination with the Secretary of State, certifies to the
appropriate congressional committees that Russia is respecting

inconsistently with the Intermediate-range Nuclear Forces
Treaty, and in compliance with the Treaty on Conventional Armed

provision.
The agreement includes the House provision with an
amendment that would prohibit funding for Cooperative Threat
Reduction programs in Russia beyond fiscal year 2015 without

We support threat reduction programs and understand the
importance of the Cooperative Threat Reduction (CTR) program,
but we also believe that the traditional manner in which the
program's activities have been carried out in the Russian
Federation is no longer necessary and no longer sustainable.
While there still may be areas of technical cooperation that
are of mutual benefit, such as the successful cooperative
effort to rid Syria of chemical weapons and materials, this
work in the future should be focused on specific threats, and
not just a continuation of effort. Moreover, the CTR program
may not be the most appropriate mechanism under which future
cooperative work in Russia is conducted. The United States
relationship with Russia has changed fundamentally and the CTR
work in the Russian Federation is concluding. We believe that
securing and destroying nuclear weapons and nuclear material is
now a Russian responsibility and one that the United States
should no longer fund without Russian cooperation. Any work
proposed by the Department under CTR in the future with the
Russian Federation will be carefully reviewed and subject to
specific authorization.

Title XV--Authorization of Additional Appropriations For Overseas
Contingency Operations
BUDGET ITEM
National Guard and Reserve Component Equipment
The amended budget request for Overseas Contingency
Operations contained no funding for a National Guard and
Reserve Equipment account.
The House bill contained $250.0 million for a National
Guard and Reserve Equipment account.
The Senate committee-reported bill would provide no funding
for a National Guard and Reserve Component Equipment account.
The agreement includes $1.25 billion for a National Guard
and Reserve Equipment account in section 4102 of this Act.
Given the uncertainty of the current and projected fiscal
environment, the availability of equipment needed to sustain
and modernize the National Guard and Reserve Components as an
operational reserve and for their domestic support missions, to
include legacy aircraft as part of the Aerospace Control Alert
(ACA) mission, remains a concern. We believe, therefore,
additional funds are necessary to reduce high priority
operational and dual-use equipment shortfalls. Accordingly, we
expect these funds to be used for the purposes of, but not
limited to, meeting the fiscal year 2015 unfunded equipment
priorities of the Reserve Components as reported to Congress
under section 10543(c) of title 10, United States Code. The
funds may also be used by the National Guard and Reserve
Components for the procurement of: aircraft, including
associated replacements or upgrades for avionics, radars, and
fuel tanks; tactical missiles; wheeled and tracked combat and
tactical vehicles, including associated replacements or
upgrades for mobility, survivability, and lethality, such as
weapons stations; ammunition; small arms; tactical radios; non-
system training devices; command, control, and logistics
automation systems; shelters, and other critical dual-use
items.

prohibit the use of fiscal year 2015 Department of Defense
(DOD) funds for the Afghanistan Infrastructure Fund (AIF) until
all prior-year funds for the AIF have been obligated or
expended.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained a similar
provision (sec. 1524) that would prohibit the use of fiscal
year 2015 DOD funds for the AIF.
The agreement includes the Senate provision.
Afghanistan Security Forces Fund (sec. 1532)
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1521) that would
continue existing limitations under section 1513 of the
National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2008 (Public
Law 110-181), as amended, on the use of funds in the
Afghanistan Security Forces Fund (ASFF).
The Senate committee-reported bill contained a similar
provision (sec. 1523).
The agreement includes the House provision with an
amendment that would also extend the authority under subsection
1531(d) of the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal
Year 2014 (Public Law 113-66) to accept certain equipment

Department of Defense stocks. The agreement would condition the
acceptance of equipment procured with ASFF funds authorized
under this Act on: (1) the Secretary of Defense submitting to
the congressional defense committees a detailed report on the
equipment procurement process in Afghanistan; and (2) the
Commander, U.S. Forces Afghanistan making certain
determinations regarding the equipment to be accepted under
this authority. These determinations would be provided to the
congressional defense committees as part of the quarterly
reports on the exercise of this authority.
In extending the authority under subsection 1531(d) of

broadly available for accepting equipment that has been damaged
after it was transferred to the Afghan security forces.
Joint Improvised Explosive Device Defeat Fund (sec. 1533)
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1522) that would
authorize various transfer authorities, reporting requirements,
and other associated activities for the Joint Improvised
Explosive Device (IED) Defeat Fund, as managed by the Joint IED
Defeat organization.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained a similar
provision (sec. 1522) that would authorize the Joint Improvised
Explosive Device Defeat Fund and would thereby provide the
Director of the Joint Improvised Explosive Device Defeat
Organization (JIEDDO) with the authority to investigate,
develop, and provide equipment, supplies, services, training,
facilities, personnel, and funds to assist United States forces
in the defeat of improvised explosive devices for Operation
Enduring Freedom or any successor operation to that operation.
The provision would also extend JIEDDO's authority with respect
to homemade explosives, and would sunset this authority on
December 31, 2015. The provision would also direct the Under
Secretary of Defense for Acquisition, Technology, and Logistics
to present to the congressional defense committees a plan to
consolidate any enduring functions of the stated organizations,
capabilities, and funding into an appropriate organization
identified as part of that review.
The agreement includes the Senate provision with a
clarifying amendment.
Counterterrorism Partnerships Fund (sec. 1534)
A proposed amendment to the Senate committee-reported bill
(amendment number 3875) contained a provision that would
authorize the Counterterrorism Partnerships Fund.
The House bill contained no similar provision.
The agreement includes the Senate provision with a
clarifying amendment.
European Reassurance Initiative (sec. 1535)
A proposed amendment to the Senate committee-reported bill
(amendment number 3875) contained a provision (sec. 1527) that
would specify the purposes for which amounts authorized to be
appropriated for the European Reassurance Initiative (ERI)
could be used and provide other limitations on the use of such
funds.
The House bill contained no similar provision.
The agreement includes the Senate provision with an
amendment clarifying that for fiscal year 2015 $1.0 billion is
authorized to be appropriated in Overseas Contingency
Operations funds for the ERI. The amendment would also provide
that of these funds not less than $75.0 million would be
available for programs, activities, and assistance to support
Ukraine, and not less than $30.0 million would be available for
programs and activities to build the capacity of European
allies and partner nations. Amounts specified for the ERI fund
would be available for the purposes of ERI through September
30, 2016.
We are deeply concerned about the ongoing violations of
Ukraine's sovereignty and territorial integrity and note that a
provision in another section of this title expresses the sense
of Congress in support of providing Ukraine military
assistance, both non-lethal and lethal assistance, that is
defensive and non-provocative.
We are also concerned about the potential spread of the
unconventional and hybrid warfare tactics used by Russia in
Ukraine to other countries in the region, potentially including
the Baltic countries, Moldova, and Georgia. We urge the
Secretary of Defense to devote the appropriate level of
planning and resources, including resources under the ERI, to
countering the threat posed by these unconventional and hybrid
warfare tactics.
Plan for transition of funding of United States Special Operations
Command from supplemental funding for overseas contingency
operations to recurring funding for future-years defense
programs (sec. 1536)
The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision
(sec. 1521) that would require the Secretary of Defense to
provide the congressional defense committees, as part of the
fiscal year 2016 budget request, with a plan to fully
transition appropriate U.S. Special Operations Command funding
from the Overseas Contingency Operations budget to the base
budget over the future years defense program to maintain
critical and enduring special operations capabilities.
The House bill contained no similar provision.
The agreement includes the Senate provision.
LEGISLATIVE PROVISION NOT ADOPTED
Codification of Office and Management and Budget criteria
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1524) that would
require the Secretary of Defense to implement specified
criteria in requests for Overseas Contingency Operations (OCO).
The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar
provision.
The agreement does not include this provision.
We note that the criteria for OCO funding requests
developed by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for
deciding whether funding for programs properly belongs in the
base or OCO requests have not been updated in over 4 years.
While these criteria have been somewhat successful in
delineating between these two sources of funding and have
facilitated OCO funding requests for the Department of Defense
(DOD), there have been significant fact-of-life world events
which dictate a need to re-examine and update those criteria.
It is also unclear how the guidance is applied to DOD
reprogramming requests submitted to Congress for emergent
requirements. OMB should ensure the criteria remain relevant
and adaptable for evaluating DOD budget and reprogramming
requests. We encourage DOD to evaluate the OCO criteria on a
regular basis to ensure proper delineation of base and OCO
budget requests. We would expect OMB to update the OCO criteria
in time to support the FY 2016 budget submission.
Title XVI--Strategic Programs, Cyber, and Intelligence Matters
Subtitle A--Space Activities
Department of Defense Space Security and Defense Program (sec. 1601)
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1601) that
states a sense of Congress that critical U.S. space systems

of China (PRC) and the Russian Federation are developing
capabilities to disrupt the use of space by the United States
during a conflict, and that a fully developed, multi-faceted
approach is needed to deter and defeat any adversary's acts of
aggression in outer space. The provision directs the Secretary
of Defense to submit a report to the congressional defense
committees not later than 180 days after the date of the
enactment of this Act that assesses the ability of the
Department of Defense to deter and defeat any adversary's act
of aggression in outer space. In addition, this section would
direct the Secretary, acting through the Office of Net
Assessment, to conduct a study and provide a report to the
congressional defense committees not later than 1 year after
the date of the enactment of this Act of potential alternate
defense and deterrent strategies in response to the existing
and projected counterspace capabilities of PRC and the Russian
Federation.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar
provision.

direct the Secretary of the Air Force to provide certain
congressional committees with notification of each change to
the Evolved Expendable Launch Vehicle (EELV) acquisition plan
and schedule as compared to the plan and schedule included in
the budget submitted by the President for fiscal year 2015. The
notification would include an identification of the change, a
national security rationale for the change, the impact of the
change on the EELV block buy contract, the impact of the change
on the opportunities for competition for certified EELV launch
providers, and the costs or savings of the change. The
notification requirement would apply to fiscal years 2015,
2016, and 2017.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar
provision.
The agreement includes the House provision with an
amendment that would require the notification be sent to the
appropriate congressional committees at the time of the budget
submission for fiscal year 2016 and 2017, and it would not

amendment that would add coordination with the commanders of
the combatant commands.
We direct the Secretary of Defense to report to the
congressional defense committees, within 90 days of the
enactment of this Act, on DOD's satellite communications
organization structure. The report shall include a review of
the efficiency and effectiveness of the DOD's current satellite
communications organizational structure. It shall also include
a recommendation to strengthen the DOD's leadership and
acquisition structure of satellite communications in a manner
which improves strategic planning and lowers costs through more
efficient acquisition approaches to meet the DOD's related
requirements.
Specifically, the Secretary shall assess the merits and
challenges of designating the Commander of the Air Force Space
Command's Space and Missile Systems Center as the DOD's single
acquisition agent for wideband satellite communications not
later than fiscal year 2017. If the Secretary disagrees with
this proposition the report must demonstrate and give a plan to
implement an organization structure that brings coherency to
the satellite communications acquisition process. The
acquisition of commercial satellite communications is currently
at best ad hoc, expensive, and reliant on Overseas Contingency
Operations funding with little long-term planning, and is not
strategically and efficiently aligned with the acquisition of
military wideband satellite communications.

a rocket propulsion system that is made in the United States,
is developed no later than 2019 using full and open
competition, meets the requirements of the national security
space community, and is available for purchase by all space
launch providers of the United States.
We note that this provision is not an authorization of
funds for the development of a new launch vehicle. This
provision is for the development of a rocket propulsion system
to replace non-allied space launch engines by 2019.
The Secretary should coordinate with the Administrator of
the National Aeronautics and Space Administration, to the

from the Senate provision. The provision exempts the placement
of orders or the exercise of options under contract FA8811-13-
C-0003, awarded on December 18, 2013, or unless the Secretary,
upon advice of the General Counsel of the Department of
Defense, certifies to the congressional defense committees that
the offeror of a contract has provided sufficient documentation
to conclusively demonstrate that prior to February 1, 2014, the

funding to do so in the future years defense program, and that
storing the satellite until a launch in 2020 is the most cost-
effective approach to meeting the requirements of DOD.
The agreement includes the House provision with an
amendment that removes both the direction to launch the DMSP
satellite and the addition of a competition launch. The
agreement would limit 50 percent of the funds for the follow-on
weather satellite until the Secretary of Defense submits to the
congressional defense committees a plan to meet the
meteorological and oceanographic collection requirements of the
Joint Requirements Oversight Council, including the
requirements of the combatant commands, military departments
and agencies of the DOD. The Government Accountability Office
(GAO) shall review the plan and the Analysis of Alternatives to
determine if it meets best practices and fully addresses the
concerns of the acquisition, operational and user communities,
including how DOD assessed and dealt with cost, schedule and
risks posed by each alternative considered.
The agreement also includes a prohibition on storage of
DMSP, unless the Secretary of Defense intends to launch the
satellite and that storing the satellite until the anticipated

Subtitle C--Cyberspace-Related Matters
Budgeting and accounting for cyber mission forces (sec. 1631)
The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision
(sec. 1643) that would require that the Secretary of Defense,
for fiscal year 2017 and every succeeding year, for the
President's annual budget submission and supporting documents,
to develop a major force program (MFP) category and program
elements for the Department of Defense (DOD) future years
defense program for the training, arming, and equipping of the
cyber mission forces. The provision would also require the
Secretary to assess the feasibility and advisability of
establishing a general fund transfer account to execute the
funds programmed in the MFP and provide a recommendation to the
congressional defense committees by April 1, 2015.
The House bill contained no similar provision.
The agreement includes the Senate provision with a
clarifying amendment.
We note that for several years, as the importance of cyber
operations investments has grown, the congressional defense
committees have been urging DOD to improve how it categorizes
and displays its budget justification documentation. In
embarking on the process of developing a major force program,
we believe it is important for DOD to adopt a taxonomy that
remains consistent over several years. We understand that the
Department is responding to budget guidance from the Office of
Management and Budget, as well as changing priorities from new
leadership, but these fluctuations in taxonomy result in an
inconsistent and moving baseline that masks real annual changes
in budget and execution levels.
Reporting on cyber incidents with respect to networks and information
systems of operationally critical contractors (sec. 1632)
The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision
(sec. 1645) that would direct the Secretary of Defense to
establish procedures for designating contractors as
``operationally critical contractors,'' notifying such
contractors that they have been designated, and requiring
designated contractors to report successful penetrations of
their computer networks by known or suspected advanced
persistent threat actors. The provision narrowly defines an
operationally critical contractor as a company designated by
the Secretary as a critical source of supply for airlift,
sealift, intermodal transportation services, or logistical
support that is essential to mobilization, deployment, or
sustainment in a contingency operation.
The House bill contained no similar provision.
The agreement includes the Senate provision with a
clarifying amendment.
We fully share the concern of industry and the Department
of Defense (DOD) about harmonizing reporting on cyber
intrusions to eliminate redundant reporting. We direct the
Secretary to ensure that contractor reporting to DOD, and the
dissemination of such reporting, is coordinated with reporting
to the Director of National Intelligence and other government
agencies.
Executive agents for cyber test and training ranges (sec. 1633)
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1621) that would
require the Secretary of Defense to establish an executive
agent to coordinate and oversee the management of the various
cyber and information technology test and training ranges being
developed and deployed by the Department of Defense (DOD).
The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar
provision.
The agreement includes the House provision with an
amendment that would make technical changes and require the
Secretary to designate two cyber range executive agents from
among existing DOD personnel, one for test ranges and one for
training ranges; and to consult with the Principal Cyber
Advisor in designating the executive agents. The amendment also
would require the executive agents, in consultation with the
DOD Chief Information Officer, to jointly designate a standard
language from among existing open source candidates for
expressing cyber event and threat data in machine-readable form
for use in the Joint Information Environment and the range
environment.
We note that for several years, the Armed Services
Committees of the Senate and House of Representatives have
expressed concerns over how the DOD has managed its cyber range
resources. While we recognize that DOD has developed and
maintained a core set of capabilities, we have observed first-
hand that the lack of coordination of those capabilities has
left DOD in a situation where the current ranges do not support
the tools and capabilities that cyber operators would use in
the real world. Unlike in live training for kinetic operations,
in cyberspace, we do not train like we fight. We believe that
the integrated plan required by these executive agents is a
necessary tool to create standardization between training and
operational tools, as well as to ensure that DOD is investing
in adequate range resources to meet unit-level training
requirements for the force structure being defined by U.S.
Cyber Command.
One reason that we have tasked these executive agents to
designate a standard language for cyber event and threat data
reporting is to better ensure that there is standardization of
these capabilities across the range and operational networks.
Not only is this a fundamental capabilities needed by cyber
forces, it would also set a valuable precedent for ensuring
that the capabilities that are used on live, operational
networks are the same tools that would be used in a test or
training environment. We firmly believe that any standard
designated by these executive agents should swiftly be
transitioned to use on the operational networks of the Joint
Information Environment.
In designating the two required executive agents, we
believe that the Secretary should consider two important
factors. First, the Test Resource Management Center (TRMC)
already fills a similar role for the test range complex, and
would make a logical choice to take on the responsibilities for
the test range executive agent. Second, we believe that the
training range executive agent should be the responsibility of
one of the military departments, since they have the
operational imperative to maintain training readiness, as well
as the resources to sustain and upgrade training range
capabilities over time.
Cyberspace mapping (sec. 1634)
The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision
(sec. 1641) that would require the Secretary of Defense, within
60 days of the date of enactment of this Act, to designate a
network or network segment within the Department of Defense
(DOD) to support the execution of a pilot program to
demonstrate large-scale cyberspace mapping technology, as
approved by the Cyber Investment Management Board (CIMB). The
provision also would require the Principal Cyber Advisor,
within 180 days of enactment of this Act, to recommend policy
to the Secretary of Defense regarding the mapping of cyberspace
to support the missions of U.S. Cyber Command.
The House bill contained no similar provision.
The agreement includes the Senate provision with a
clarifying amendment.
Review of cross domain solution policy and requirement for cross domain
solution strategy (sec. 1635)
The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision
(sec. 1642) that would require the Secretary of Defense to
review the policies of the Department of Defense, and develop a
strategy concerning the procurement, approval, and use of
capabilities to transmit information across networks and
systems at different security classification levels.
The House bill contained no similar provision.
The agreement includes this provision.
Requirement for strategy to develop and deploy decryption service for
the Joint Information Environment (sec. 1636)
The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision
(sec. 1614) that would require the Secretary of Defense to
develop a strategy for a decryption service for the Joint
Information Environment. The provision would require the
strategy for the decryption and re-encryption of communications
to enable the inspection of communications content to detect
cyber threats and insider threat activity. That strategy would
include a requirements definition document, an architecture, a
concept of operations, a cost estimate, and an assessment of
the security benefit of such a service. The provision would
require a briefing on the strategy to be provided to the
congressional defense and intelligence committees by October 1,
2015.
The House bill contained no similar provision.
The agreement includes this provision.
Actions to address economic or industrial espionage in cyberspace (sec.
1637)
A proposed amendment to the Senate committee-reported bill
(amendment number 3377) contained a provision that would
require the President to report annually to appropriate
congressional committees on countries that engage in economic
or industrial espionage in cyberspace with respect to U.S.
trade secrets or proprietary information, and on the types of
technologies and intellectual property such countries target,
what they have succeeded in stealing, and, where known, the
incorporation of such stolen property in articles, products, or
services. The report also would include the actions the
President has taken to diminish such espionage, and the
progress made towards that goal.
The provision would authorize the President, pursuant to
the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (50 U.S.C. 1701
et seq.), to block and prohibit all transactions in all
property and interests in property of each person determined to
be knowingly engaged in such espionage, if such property and
interests in property are in the United States, come within the
United States, or are or come within the possession or control
of a U.S. person.
The House bill contained no similar provision.
The agreement includes the Senate provision with a
clarifying amendment.
We urge the President in implementing this provision to
harmonize the required reporting on industrial or economic
espionage through cyberspace with related reporting, including
the biennial report on the threat to U.S. industry from foreign
economic collection and industrial espionage required by
section 809(b) of Public Law 103-359.
Sense of Congress regarding role of reserve components in defense of
United States against cyber attacks (sec. 1638)
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1622) that would
express the sense of Congress that the National Guard has a
valuable role to play in defending the United States against
cyber attacks.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar
provision.
The agreement includes the House provision with an
amendment that would recognize the important capabilities and
role of all the reserve components.
We are aware that the Army National Guard is pursuing a
decision to establish ten Cyber Protection Teams (CPTs),
independent of the plans by U.S. Cyber Command to establish 68
CPTs within the active component. While we support a role for
the reserve components in Department of Defense planning and
organization to deal with cyber threats, we are concerned that
such plans are not adequately synchronized with overall
planning in this space. In particular, we are concerned about
potentially creating parallel structures, personnel and
training pathways, and authorities for such forces.
Therefore, we direct the Secretary of the Army to submit a
report to the congressional defense committees, within 90 days
of the enactment of this Act, on the progress made by the Army
National Guard to establish ten CPTs to support preparations to
respond to emergencies involving an attack or natural disaster
impacting computer networks. The report shall include the
following:
(1) A timeframe for when stationing of the CPTs will be
finalized.
(2) A timeframe for activation of the CPTs and whether the
teams will be activated at the same time or staggered over
time.
(3) A description of manning and basing requirements.
(4) The number and location of nominations received for a
CPT and the activation date estimate provided in each
nomination.
(5) An assessment of the range of stated cost projections
included in the nominations.
(6) An assessment of any identified patterns regarding ease
or difficulty of staffing individuals with required credentials
within particular regions.
(7) Any additional information deemed relevant by the
Secretary.
Sense of Congress on the future of the Internet and the .MIL top-level
domain (sec. 1639)
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1090E) that
would prohibit the transfer of the responsibilities of the
National Telecommunications and Information Administration
(NTIA) for Internet domain name system functions until the
Comptroller General of the United States submits a report to
Congress, within 1 year of the date on which NTIA receives a
proposal for the transfer of such responsibilities to the
Internet Corporation For Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN).
The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision
(sec. 1646) that would express the sense of Congress that the
Secretary of Defense should:
(1) Advise the President to transfer the remaining
role of the United States Government in the functions
of the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA) to a
global multi-stakeholder community only if the
President is confident that the .mil top level domain
and the Internet protocol address numbers used
exclusively by the Department of Defense (DOD) for
national security will remain exclusively used by DOD;
and
(2) Take all necessary steps to sustain the
successful stewardship and good standing of the
Internet root zone servers managed by DOD components.
The agreement includes the Senate provision with an
amendment that would clarify how the Secretary should provide
advice in the process, as well as ensure active participation
in all transition planning and accountability stress testing.
We understand that the arcane and esoteric process for
governing the internet is not conducive to quick or easy
understanding by decisionmakers not intimately involved in the
process. We fear that the lack of understanding breeds concerns
that at face value appear warranted, but upon closer
examination may not be valid, or may be easily mitigated. We
believe that some improved confidence building measures and
transparency over the negotiations process would be helpful in
dispelling any misconceptions about the process.
Therefore, we direct the Secretary to submit a report to
the Committees on Armed Services of the Senate and House of
Representatives on the transition process no later than 180
days after the enactment of this Act. This report should
explain DOD's role in the negotiations process, any issues or
concerns about the status of negotiations, and any observations
related to the accountability stress testing currently
underway. Furthermore, we encourage DOD and the National
Telecommunications and Information Administration to provide
regular briefings to the Committees on Armed Services of the
Senate and House or Representatives, as well as other
congressional committees, on the status of transition planning
and accountability stress testing.

Fiscal year 2013 (Public Law 112-239) to require the
Congressional Budget Office (CBO) to submit a report to the
congressional defense committees on an annual basis regarding
the 10-year cost of nuclear weapons programs.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained a similar
provision (sec. 1602) that would amend section 1043 of the
National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2012 (Public
Law 112-81) to require the CBO to submit such a report 120 days
after submission of the report required by section 1043 for an
odd-numbered fiscal year.
The agreement includes the Senate provision with an
amendment that would require the CBO report to be submitted by
July 1 of each year in which the President submits a report
under section 1043 for an odd-numbered fiscal year. The
amendment would also require the CBO report to include an
estimate of the relative percentage of total defense spending
represented by nuclear weapons funding during the 10-year
period. Finally, the amendment would require the Director of
the CBO to submit a letter to the congressional defense
committees if the Director determines a report under section
1043 for an even-numbered fiscal year contains a significant
change.
We expect the Director to use their best judgment regarding
whether any changes are significant enough to warrant
submission of a letter.
Retention of missile silos (sec. 1644)
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1634) that would
require the Secretary of Defense to preserve each

provision.
The agreement includes the House provision with an
amendment that would make the requirement effective during the
period in which the New START Treaty (as defined by section
494(a)(2)(D) of title 10, United States Code) is in effect. The
amendment also includes a rule of construction that would
enable the Department of Defense to place a silo offline
temporarily to perform maintenance activities.
We intend that this provision would require the Secretary
to maintain the pertinent silos in a condition that permits
them to be returned to operational alert status.
Procurement authority for certain parts of intercontinental ballistic
missile fuzes (sec. 1645)
The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision
(sec. 1601) that would give authority to procure commercial

required and has decided to maintain the National Air and Space
Intelligence Center directly aligned to the Headquarters Air
Staff. However, we will continue to monitor the Air Force's
implementation of its plan.
Authority for Secretary of Defense to engage in commercial activities
as security for military operations abroad
The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision
(sec. 1652) that would amend subsections 431 through 437 of
title 10, United States Code, to: (1) Allow the Secretary of
Defense to employ commercial activities as security for
military operations, in addition to existing authority for
using such activities for intelligence operations; (2) Direct
that reports of audits on commercial activities used as
security for intelligence operations as reported to the
congressional defense and intelligence committees, and reports
on audits of commercial activities used as security for
military operations, are reported to the congressional defense
committees only; and (3) Make conforming changes throughout
these subsections.
The House bill contained no similar provision.
The agreement does not include this provision. We believe
that this could be a useful authority, but would have to
receive better answers from the Department of Defense (DOD) to
questions that were raised after DOD requested this authority.
We would reevaluate this request in the future if DOD continues
to identify a need for the authority.
Budget increase for Aegis ballistic missile defense
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1646) that would
authorize an increase of $99.0 million for procurement of
Standard Missile-3 (SM-3) interceptors for the Aegis ballistic
missile defense system.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar
provision.
The agreement does not include this provision.
Funding authorization levels for procurement of SM-3
interceptors are included in the procurement funding table in
section 4101 of this Act.
Director of National Intelligence certification with respect to the
mission analysis for cyber operations of Department of Defense
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1623) that would
amend section 933 of the National Defense Authorization Act for
Fiscal Year 2014 (Public Law 113-66) to require the Director of
National Intelligence to certify that the recommendations of
the cyber mission analysis report by the Secretary of Defense
required by section 933 are consistent with the cyber
operations capability needs of the United States.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar
provision.
The agreement does not include this provision.
We note that the Secretary's cyber mission analysis report
did not include a certification that the Red Team personnel and
capacity in the Air National Guard are no longer required by
the Department of Defense, and may not be reduced or reassigned
without such a certification.
Independent review of the personnel reliability program of the
Department of Defense and the human reliability program of the
Department of Energy
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1632) that would
require the Secretary of Defense and the Secretary of Energy to
jointly seek to enter into a contract with a federally funded
research and development center to conduct an independent
review of the Personnel Reliability Program (PRP) of the
Department of Defense and the Human Reliability Program of the
Department of Energy.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar
provision.
The agreement does not include this provision.
We note that the Department of Defense is currently
reviewing its PRP as part of a broader assessment of needs
within its nuclear enterprise. We expect this review will offer
significant recommendations for modernizing PRP to make it both
more effective and more efficient. We further expect that the
Department of Energy will apply lessons learned from the
Department of Defense's review to its own, similar program. We
will continue close oversight of this matter.
Integrated plan on space launch activities of the Federal Government
A proposed amendment to the Senate committee-reported bill
(amendment number 3814) contained a provision that would
require the Secretary of Defense and the Administrator of the
National Aeronautics and Space Administration to jointly, in
coordination with the National Security Council, the Director
of the Office of Science and Technology Policy and the heads of
other appropriate agencies of the Federal Government, develop a
plan to achieve the effective planning, coordination, and
execution for the civil and national security space launch
activities of the Federal Government in order to ensure that
the mission needs of the United States of reliable, timely, and
affordable access to space for all agencies are met in a cost-
effective manner.
The House bill contained no similar provision.
The agreement does not include this provision.
We direct the Secretary of Defense, in consultation with
the Administrator of the National Aeronautics and Space
Administration, and the heads of other appropriate agencies of
the Federal Government, to identify and assess opportunities
for coordination among Federal agencies in space launch
acquisition efforts, and provide a summary of the lessons
learned by the Department of Defense and the National
Aeronautics and Space Administration regarding their launch
service programs. The results of the study shall be provided to
the appropriate congressional committees in the form of a
briefing no later than December 31, 2015.
Furthermore, we direct the Government Accountability Office
(GAO) to assess the results of the study as presented in the
briefing to Congress, as well as update the related space
launch findings and recommendations reported in the 2012 GAO
Annual Report titles ``Opportunities to Reduce Duplication,
Overlap and Fragmentation, Achieve Savings, and Enhance
Revenue.'' The GAO shall provide the results of the assessment
within 90 days of receiving the briefing provided to Congress.
Reports and briefings of Strategic Advisory Group
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1638) that would
require the Commander, U.S. Strategic Command to provide to the
congressional defense committees a copy of each briefing and
report prepared by his Strategy Advisory Group, including any
subgroup thereof and any successor advisory group, provided to
him in the previous year.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar
provision.
The agreement does not include this provision. We are aware
that the Commander wrote to the Chairman of the House Armed
Services Committee on May 19, 2014 and committed to providing
the committees with briefings on the materials provided to him
by the Strategic Advisory Group. We believe this will be a
useful arrangement for the oversight function of the
committees. We also believe that, from time to time, it may be
necessary to receive copies of these reports, and we look
forward to working with the Commander in the event the
committees believe that it is necessary. With this
understanding, we choose not to adopt section 1638 of the House
bill at this time.
Report on governance and corruption in the Russian Federation
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1617) that would
direct the Director of National Intelligence to submit a report
on the status of governance and corruption in the Russian
Federation.

provision.
The agreement does not include this provision.
Report on reliance of Evolved Expendable Launch Vehicle program on
foreign manufacturers

Office to submit, within 180 days of enactment of this Act, a
report on risks of reliance on foreign manufacturers to the
Evolved Expendable Launch Vehicle program.
The House bill contained no similar provision.
The agreement does not include this provision.
We agree that the RAND study ``U.S. Space Launch
Capability--An Assessment of the Use of Foreign Components'',
(December 2013), as required by section 916 of the National
Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2013 (Public Law 112-
239) obviates the need for an additional study at this time.
Sense of Congress on procurement and deployment of capability
enhancement II exo-atmospheric kill vehicle
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1642) that would
express the sense of Congress that the Department of Defense
(DOD) should not procure an additional Capability Enhancement-
II (CE-II) exo-atmospheric kill vehicle for deployment on
Ground-Based Interceptors of the Ground-based Midcourse Defense
(GMD) system until a successful operationally realistic
intercept flight test of the CE-II has occurred.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar
provision.
The agreement does not include this provision.
We note that, after the House bill was passed, a successful
intercept flight test of the GMD system, using an upgraded
version of the CE-II kill vehicle, took place on June 22, 2014.
This successful flight test result allowed DOD to resume
assembly and delivery of GBIs with upgraded CE-II kill vehicles
for deployment.
Sense of the Senate on resolution limits on commercial space imagery
The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision
(sec. 1631) that would express the sense of the Senate that the
Secretary of Defense should support the relaxation of
panchromatic, spectral, and infrared imagery resolution limits
on the sale of commercial space imagery. The provision would
also require the Under Secretary of Defense for Policy to
provide a recommendation to Congress by April 1, 2015, on the
design and development of a flexible and dynamic capability to
control the collection and sale of commercial space imagery to
protect national security.
The House bill contained no similar provision.
The agreement does not include this provision.
We direct the Secretary of Defense, in coordination with
the Director of National Intelligence, to brief the
congressional defense and intelligence committees on the
progress achieved in developing a flexible and dynamic
capability to control the collection and sale of commercial
space imagery to protect national security.
Theater air and missile defense of allies of the United States
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 1641) that would
require the operational deployment of the Aegis Ashore missile
defense system in Poland by December 31, 2016, and would
require the deployment of either the Patriot short-range
missile defense system or the Terminal High Altitude Area
Defense terminal missile defense system in Poland by the end of
2014.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar
provision.

Army to conduct a comprehensive review of the Army's size,
structure, and force mix.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained a similar
provision (secs. 1701-1709).
The agreement includes the Senate provision with amendments
that would clarify the limitations on the authority of the
Secretary of Defense and the Secretary of the Army with respect
to the transfer of AH-64 Apache attack helicopters from the
Army National Guard (ARNG) to the regular Army. The agreement
also includes amendments that would clarify the duties of such
a commission.
We expect the Army and ARNG to immediately proceed with
appropriate planning and preparation activities for the
transfer of up to 48 AH-64 Apache aircraft prior to March 31,
2016. Such preparations should include all necessary personnel
and materiel-related actions required to facilitate such
transfers. We also expect the Army and ARNG to continue the
planning necessary for the potential implementation of the rest
of the Army's Aviation Restructure Initiative so that
disruptions to the readiness of the Army and ARNG are minimized
in the event that Congress approves additional elements of the
Army's plan beyond March 31, 2016.
DIVISION B--MILITARY CONSTRUCTION AUTHORIZATIONS

construction projects of the Department of Defense. It includes
funding authorizations for the construction and operation of
military family housing as well as military construction for
the reserve components, the defense agencies, and the North
Atlantic Treaty Organization Security Investment Program. It
also provides authorization for the base closure accounts that
fund military construction, environmental cleanup, and other
activities required to implement the decisions of the base
closure rounds.
LEGISLATIVE PROVISIONS ADOPTED
Short title (sec. 2001)
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 2001) that would
designate division B of this Act as the Military Construction
Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2015.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained an identical
provision (sec. 2001).
The agreement includes this provision.
Expiration of authorizations and amounts required to be specified by
law (sec. 2002)
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 2002) that would
ensure that the authorizations provided in titles XXI through
XXVII shall expire on October 1, 2017, or the date of enactment
of an act authorizing funds for military construction for
fiscal year 2018, whichever is later.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained an identical
provision.
This agreement includes the provision with a technical
amendment.
LEGISLATIVE PROVISION NOT ADOPTED

provision.
The agreement does not include this provision.
Title XXI--Army Military Construction
Summary
The Department of Defense requested authorization of
appropriations of $539.4 million for military construction and
$429.6 million for family housing for the Army for fiscal year
2015.
The agreement includes authorization of appropriations of
$543.4 million for military construction and $429.6 million for
family housing for the Army for fiscal year 2015.
The budget request included $96.0 million for the third of
six planned phases of construction of a Command and Control
Facility at Fort Shafter, Hawaii. We understand that all six
phases are necessary to provide for a complete facility that
meets the requirements of U.S. Army Pacific. Furthermore, we
understand that combining the remaining four phases into a
single authorized project would save the Army significant
military construction funding and accelerate facility
construction by up to 4 years.
Therefore, the agreement includes authorization of $311.4
million for the remaining four phases of the Command and
Control Facility at Fort Shafter, Hawaii. This authorization
assumes at least 10 percent savings will be achieved through
construction and contracting efficiencies. Consistent with
these efficiencies, the agreement includes an authorization of
appropriations for fiscal year 2015 of $85.0 million for the
first increment of this project.
We believe that it is inappropriate to phase, rather than
increment, large military construction projects when each
distinct phase does not fully meet the requirements of the user
and direct the Army to refrain from requesting similarly phased
projects in the future.
We recognize that in difficult budget times military
construction funding is often deferred in favor of other
priorities and note that the Army's military construction
request for fiscal year 2015 is 52 percent less than what was
requested for fiscal year 2014. Therefore, the agreement
includes authorization of $15.0 million for a Consolidated
Shipping Center at Blue Grass Army Depot, Kentucky, $46.0
million for a Simulations Center at Fort Hood, Texas, and $86.0
million for Phase 3 of the Individual Training Barracks Complex
at Fort Lee, Virginia, the Army's top unfunded military
construction priorities.

following the delivery of a report to the congressional defense
committees validating on-post housing requirements in the ROK,
including Camp Walker and Camp Humphries, and a plan for
meeting such requirements.
The House bill contained no similar provision.
The agreement includes the Senate provision.
Title XXII--Navy Military Construction
Summary
The Department of Defense requested authorization of
appropriations of $1.02 billion for military construction and
$370.4 million for family housing for the Department of the
Navy for fiscal year 2015.
The agreement includes authorization of appropriations of
$993.2 million for military construction and $370.4 million for
family housing for the Department of the Navy for fiscal year
2015.
The budget request included $120.1 million for a Center for
Cyber Studies Building in Annapolis, Maryland. We understand
the Navy would be unable to expend the full amount of the
budget request and, therefore, the agreement includes a $90.1
million reduction.
We recognize that in difficult budget times military
construction funding is often deferred in favor of other
priorities and note that the Navy's military construction
request for fiscal year 2015 is 40 percent less than what was
requested for fiscal year 2014. Therefore, the agreement
includes authorization of $13.8 million for a Regional Ship
Maintenance Support Facility at Bangor, Washington, and $50.7
million for a Radio Battalion Complex at Camp Lejeune, North
Carolina, the top unfunded military construction priorities of
the Navy and Marine Corps, respectively.

The agreement does not include this provision.
We note that the Air Force is currently conducting an
environmental impact study to ``improve an existing airport or
airports and associated infrastructure in the Mariana Islands
in support of expanding mission requirements and to achieve
divert capabilities in the western Pacific.'' If necessary,
upon issuing a Record of Decision, we would welcome a
legislative proposal from the Secretary of the Air Force to
modify the scope or location for the project as currently
authorized by section 2301(a) of the Military Construction

Title XXIV--Defense Agencies Military Construction
Summary
The Department of Defense requested authorization of

The budget request included $259.7 million for the Medical
Center Replacement at Rhine Ordnance Barracks, Germany. We
understand the Department of Defense would be unable to expend
the full amount of the budget request and, therefore, the
agreement includes a $70.0 million reduction.
The budget request included $9.0 million for Contingency
Construction. In light of unobligated balances in the
Contingency Construction account from previous years, the
agreement includes a $9.0 million reduction.
The budget request included $24.4 million for Planning and
Design. In light of unobligated balances in the Planning and
Design account from previous years, the agreement includes a
$20.0 million reduction.

by the Joint Explanatory Statement to Accompany the National
Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2014 (Public Law 113-
66) and a report on the review of Department of Defense efforts
regarding the prevention of suicide among members of United
States Special Operations Forces and their dependents required
elsewhere in this Act.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar

Title XXV--North Atlantic Treaty Organization Security Investment
Program
Summary
The Department of Defense requested authorization of
appropriations of $199.7 million for military construction in
fiscal year 2015 for the North Atlantic Treaty Organization
Security Investment Program.
The agreement includes authorization of appropriations of
$174.7 million for military construction in fiscal year 2015
for the North Atlantic Treaty Organization Security Investment
Program.
We understand that the North Atlantic Treaty Organization
Security Investment Program has expended prior year funds more
slowly than anticipated and does not require the full requested
amount for fiscal year 2015. Therefore, the agreement includes
a $25.0 million reduction.
LEGISLATIVE PROVISIONS ADOPTED
Authorized NATO construction and land acquisition projects (sec. 2501)
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 2501) that would
authorize the Secretary of Defense to make contributions to the

Title XXVI--Guard and Reserve Forces Facilities
Summary
The Department of Defense requested authorization of
appropriations of $426.5 million for military construction in
fiscal year 2015 for facilities for the guard and reserve
components.
The agreement includes authorization of appropriations of
$532.1 million for military construction in fiscal year 2015
for facilities for the guard and reserve components.
We recognize that in difficult budget times military
construction funding is often deferred in favor of other
priorities and note that the Department's military construction
request for the guard and reserve components for fiscal year
2015 is 38 percent less than what was requested for fiscal year
2014. Therefore, the agreement includes authorization of $5.0
million for a Readiness Center in Alamogordo, New Mexico; $19.0
million for Enlisted Barracks at Yakima, Washington; $10.8
million for a Vehicle Maintenance Shop in Dagsboro, Delaware;
$13.2 million for a Consolidated Sensitive Compartmented
Information Facility at Fort Smith Municipal Airport, Arkansas;
$25.0 million for an Army Reserve Center in Riverside,
California; $26.0 million for an Army Reserve Center in
Arlington Heights, Illinois; $9.3 million for an Army Reserve
Center in Starkville, Mississippi; $47.9 million for a Joint
Reserve Intelligence Center in Everett, Washington; and $14.5
million for a Guardian Angel Operations Facility at Davis-
Monthan Air Force Base, Arizona. Each of these projects were
identified as the top unfunded military construction priorities
of the respective guard and reserve components.

Title XXVII--Base Realignment and Closure Activities
Summary
The Department of Defense requested $270.1 million for the
ongoing cost of environmental remediation and other activities
necessary to continue implementation of the 1988, 1991, 1993,
1995, and 2005 Base Realignment and Closure rounds.
The agreement includes the requested amount.
Subtitle A--Authorization of Appropriations

activities funded through Department of Defense base closure
account (sec. 2701)
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 2701) that would
authorize appropriations for ongoing activities that are
required for base realignment and closure activities.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained a similar
provision (sec. 2701).
The agreement includes the House provision.
Subtitle B--Prohibition on Additional BRAC Round

affirm congressional intent to reject the budget request to
authorize another Base Realignment and Closure round in 2017.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained a similar
provision (sec. 2702).
The agreement includes the House provision.
Subtitle C--Other Matters
Modification of property disposal procedures under base realignment and
closure process (sec. 2721)
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 2722) that would
authorize the local government, in whose jurisdiction the
military installation is wholly located, to be recognized as
the local reuse authority for purposes of managing Base Closure
and Realignment (BRAC) reuse planning. This section would also
require the Secretary of Defense to submit a report to the
congressional defense committees as to excess BRAC property
that has not been declared surplus by the Federal Government.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar
provision.
The agreement includes the House provision.
LEGISLATIVE PROVISIONS NOT ADOPTED
HUBZones
The Senate committee-reported bill included a provision
(sec. 2703) that would modify section 632 of title 15, United
States Code, to expand the area around former military
installations closed under the Base Realignment and Closure
process that can be considered for purposes of satisfying
employee residency requirements under the HUBZone program and
would extend the period of applicability from 5 to 8 years.
The House bill contained no similar provision.
The agreement does not include this provision.
Force-structure plans and infrastructure inventory and assessment of
infrastructure necessary to support the force structure
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 2721) that would
require the Secretary of Defense to submit a report as part of
the budget justification documents submitted to Congress in
support of the President's budget for the Department of Defense
for fiscal year 2016 that details multiple 20-year force
structure plans and a comprehensive inventory of worldwide
infrastructure. The report would also compare these two items
to determine categories of excess in the Department of Defense
infrastructure. The Secretary of Defense would also certify
whether the need exists for the closure or realignment of
additional military installations and whether the Secretary
anticipates that each base closure and realignment
recommendation would result in annual net savings for each of
the military departments within 6 years after the initiation of
the additional round of closures and realignments.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar
provision.
The agreement does not include this provision.
We note that a provision elsewhere in this Act makes clear
that nothing in this Act shall be construed to authorize an
additional Base Realignment and Closure (BRAC) round. We also
note that the Department of Defense and Military Departments
have provided testimony about the current estimates of excess
infrastructure capacity associated with military installations.
However, those estimates are based on outdated data from the
analysis done in support of the 2005 BRAC round. The Department
of Defense and military departments have also stated that
overall force structure reductions may generate additional
excess infrastructure capacity. However, we are aware that the
military departments are implementing installation management
methods that may serve to diminish excess infrastructure
capacity.
Due to the force structure changes and infrastructure
investments and management strategies that have occurred since
the 2005 BRAC round, we believe that excess infrastructure
capacity assessments should be based on current infrastructure
data and informed by current force structure projections. We
believe the Department of Defense has the authority to provide
such an updated analysis but to date has not provided such an
assessment.
Final settlement of claims regarding caretaker agreement for former
Defense Depot Ogden, Utah
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 2723) that would
limit any further claim adjudication associated with a
caretaker agreement between the City of Ogden, Utah, the Ogden
Local Redevelopment Authority, and the Department of the Army.
This limitation would be conditioned on a release of claims
against the United States by the City of Ogden and the Ogden
Local Redevelopment Authority.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar
provision.
The agreement does not include this provision.
Title XXVIII--Military Construction General Provisions
Subtitle A--Military Construction Program and Military Family Housing
Changes
Congressional notification of construction projects, land acquisitions,
and defense access road projects conducted under authorities
other than a Military Construction Authorization Act (sec.
2801)
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 2801) that would
amend section 2802 of title 10, United States Code, to clarify
that certain military construction projects, land acquisitions,
and defense-access roads projects must be specifically
authorized in a Military Construction Authorization Act.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar
provision.
The agreement includes the House provision with an
amendment that would instead modify section 2802 of title 10,
United States Code, to require that the Secretary concerned
notify the congressional defense committees at least 15 days
prior to the initiation of any construction, land acquisition,
or defense-access road project by a military department,
Defense Agency, or Department of Defense Field Activity on a
military installation that will be carried out pursuant to a
provision of law other than a Military Construction
Authorization Act.
Modification of authority to carry out unspecified minor military
construction (sec. 2802)
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 2802) that would
modify section 2805 of title 10, United States Code, by
increasing the threshold associated with operation and
maintenance funding for minor military construction purposes
from $750,000 to $1.0 million. This section would also unify
the threshold for application of unspecified minor construction
from $2.0 million to $3.0 million. Finally, this section would
authorize the Secretary concerned to make adjustments to the
general authority to match area cost factors.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained a similar
provision (sec. 2803) that would increase the maximum amount of
unspecified minor military construction funding that can be
used to correct facility deficiencies that threaten the life,
safety, or health of personnel from $3.0 million to $4.0
million. The committee recommended an increase in this
threshold to reflect its view that life, safety, and health
deficiencies are at least equal to, if not more important than,
laboratory revitalization for which the unspecified minor
military construction threshold is $4.0 million.
The agreement includes the House provision with an
amendment that would remove the authorization to make
adjustments to the general authority to match area cost factors
and add the Senate provision increasing the threshold for
projects designed to correct facility deficiencies that
threaten the life, safety, or health of personnel.
Clarification of authorized use of payments-in-kind and in-kind
contributions (sec. 2803)
The Senate committee-reported bill included a provision
(sec. 2801) that would clarify the requirement of section
2687(a) of title 10, United States Code, as amended by section
2807 of the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year
2014 (Public Law 113-66), that military construction projects
built with in-kind payments or in-kind contributions required
by bilateral agreements be specifically authorized by law.
The House bill contained no similar provision.
The agreement includes the Senate provision with an
amendment that would make the provision effective beginning on
the later of September 30, 2016, or the date of enactment of an
Act authorizing funds for military construction for fiscal year
2017. The provision would also exempt military construction
projects funded with payments-in-kind or in-kind contributions
that were the subject of negotiation between the United States
and a host country as of the date of enactment of this Act.
Lastly, the provision would require, until the effective date,
notification to the congressional defense committees at least
30 days prior to initiating any military construction project
built for Department of Defense personnel outside the United
States using payments-in-kind or in-kind contributions and make
other conforming changes.
Use of one-step turn-key contractor selection procedures for additional
facility projects (sec. 2804)
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 2803) that would
modify section 2862 of title 10, United States Code, by
expanding the existing authority to use turn-key selection
procedures for military construction projects to include
certain repair projects and facility construction associated
with authorized security assistance activities.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar
provision.
The agreement includes the House provision.
Limitations on military construction in European Command area of
responsibility and European Reassurance Initiative (sec. 2805)
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 2804) that would
extend the prohibition previously included in section 2809 of
the Military Construction Authorization Act for Fiscal Year
2014 (division B of Public Law 113-66) on awarding a contract
for any new military construction and family housing project,
with certain exceptions, in the U.S. European Command area of
responsibility until the Secretary of Defense certifies to the
congressional defense committees that the installations and
specific military construction requirements authorized in the
Act have been examined as part of the ongoing European
Infrastructure Consolidation Assessment, have been determined
to be of an enduring nature, and most effectively meet military
requirements at the authorized location.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained a similar
provision (sec. 2805).
The agreement includes the House provision with an
amendment that, for projects authorized in title XXIX of this
Act to support the European Reassurance Initiative, would
require the Secretary of Defense to provide a military
construction project data sheet and certification that a pre-
financing statement for eligible projects has been submitted
through the North Atlantic Treaty Organization Security
Investment Program to the congressional defense committees
prior to awarding a contract in connection with any such
project.
Extension of temporary, limited authority to use operation and
maintenance funds for construction projects in certain areas
outside the United States (sec. 2806)
The Senate committee-reported bill included a provision
(sec. 2804) that would extend the contingency construction
authority contained in section 2808 of the Military
Construction Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2004 (division B
of Public Law 108-136), as amended, for an additional year.
The House bill contained no similar provision.
The agreement includes the Senate provision.
Application of residential building construction standards (sec. 2807)
The Senate committee-reported bill included a provision
(sec. 2802) that would allow for residential buildings designed
and constructed using funds authorized by this Act to meet an
above code green building standard or rating system to use the
ICC 700 National Green Building Standard, the LEED Green
Building Standard System, or an equivalent protocol.
The House bill contained no similar provision.
The agreement includes the Senate provision with an
amendment that would further modify the list of above code
green building standard or rating systems that may be used by
the Department of Defense (DOD).
We are concerned that the DOD may not be considering all
appropriate voluntary consensus green building systems or
standards, as defined in the Office of Management and Budget
Circular Number A-119, and their associated certification
systems, when performing the renovation or construction of
residential buildings. We believe that DOD should consider all
appropriate voluntary consensus green building systems or
standards and, in doing so, should focus on energy savings and
cost-efficiency, using a comprehensive approach that factors in
all facets of a green building including costs for
certification and overall compliance when determining which
green building standard or rating system to use. DOD should
also consider using third party verification to ensure design
and construction meet the requirements for certification, and
include user training and education to ensure the building is
operated efficiently.
Limitation on construction of new facilities at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba
(sec. 2808)
The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision
(sec. 2806) that would limit funding authorized by the bill for
new facilities at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, until the Secretary of
Defense certifies to the congressional defense committees that
any new construction of facilities at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba,
have enduring military value independent of a high-value
detention mission.
The House bill contained no similar provision.
The agreement includes the Senate provision.
We note that the Department of Defense has previously
determined that all new facilities at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba,
authorized by this Act have enduring military value independent
of a high-value detention mission.

Renewals, extensions, and succeeding leases for financial institutions
operating on military installations (sec. 2811)

renewal, extension, or succeeding lease for a financial
institution operating on a military installation.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained a similar
provision (sec. 2812).
The agreement includes the House provision.
Deposit of reimbursed funds to cover administrative expenses relating
to certain real property transactions (sec. 2812)
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 2814) that would
amend section 2695 of title 10, United States Code, and would
provide flexibility to ensure that reimbursements eventually
received by the military departments are not expired at the
time of reimbursement. This section would provide for the
merger of the reimbursed funds with those in the current
appropriation, fund, or account used by the military
departments for payment of administrative transaction-related
expenses. Finally, this section would authorize the military
departments to use operation and maintenance appropriations to
pay for administrative expenses needed to complete other real
property transactions.
The Senate committee-reported bill included a similar
provision (sec. 2811).
The agreement includes the House provision.
Subtitle C--Provisions Related to Asia-Pacific Military Realignment
Realignment of Marine Corps forces in Asia-Pacific region (sec. 2821)
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 2831) that would
amend section 2822 of the Military Construction Authorization
Act for Fiscal Year 2014 (division B of Public Law 113-66) and
strike certain restrictions limiting the movement of Marine
Corps forces from Okinawa, Japan, to Guam.
The Senate bill contained a related provision (sec. 2821)
that would extend the prohibition on funds for construction
activities to implement the realignment of Marine Corps forces
from Okinawa, Japan, to Guam until certain conditions are met.
The agreement includes the Senate provision with an
amendment that would remove the prohibition on construction
activities to implement the realignment of Marine Corps forces
from Okinawa, Japan, to Guam and replace it with an overall
cost cap on such construction, reflecting the July 2014 Master
Plan for Guam, subject to inflation and changes in costs to
comply with changes in law. The provision would also continue
restrictions on the development of public infrastructure on
Guam unless a grant, transfer, cooperative agreement, or
supplemental funding for the development of public
infrastructure is specifically authorized by law and would be
used to carry out a project included in the report of the
Economic Adjustment Committee required by section 2831(d) of
the National Defense Authorization act for Fiscal Year 2014
(Public Law 113-66).

provision.
The agreement contains the House provision with an
amendment that would authorize the Secretary of the Army to
convey certain Army property at the former Walter Reed Army
Medical Center to the Department of State. Furthermore, should
the authorized conveyance to the Department of State not occur,
the amendment would allow the Secretary of the Army to convey,
without consideration, certain property to an authorized
recipient for the purpose of permitting the recipient to use
the property for the protection of public health, including
research.
We note that the Army and Department of State have been
pursuing an interagency transfer of property and facilities at
the former Walter Reed Army Medical Center since April 2006 and
we encourage both agencies to work together to conclude
negotiations expeditiously. If the Army pursues the alternative
conveyance authority provided by this section, we believe such
a conveyance should be conducted in a manner that is consistent
with the disposal process of real property for public health,
including research, as found in section 550 of title 40, United
States Code.

Law 109-272, the condition that the property be accepted ``as
is'', the condition that the Memorial be used and maintained as
a veterans memorial in perpetuity, and other factors. The
provision would also provide for the United States, at its
election, to exercise reversionary rights to the Memorial if
the Secretary of Defense determines that it is ever put to a
use other than as a veterans memorial. Exercise of any
reversionary rights would be temporary and solely for the
purpose of conveying, as expeditiously as practicable, the

authorize the Secretary of the Navy to use the authorities
provided by sections 2664 and 2684(a) of title 10, United
States Code, to acquire from willing sellers easements and
other interests in real property in the vicinity of the Pacific
Missile Range Facility, Kauai, Hawaii.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar
provision.
The agreement does not include this provision.
We note that the Department of Defense and the military
departments have authorities under sections 2664 and 2684(a) of
title 10, United States Code, to enter into agreements with or
acquire from willing sellers easements and other interests in
real property in the vicinity of military installations and
range facilities. In instances where a military installation or
range facility is subject to encroachment or other restrictions
that may directly or indirectly restrict, impede, or otherwise
interfere with current or anticipated military training,
testing, or operations, we believe the Department of Defense
and military departments should consider the authorities of

possible means to alleviate adverse impacts to military
missions.
Sense of Congress on national security and public lands
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 2817) that would

exercises, should be the top priority, particularly with regard
to the use of land owned by the United States.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar
provision.
The agreement does not include this provision.
The Department of Defense regularly uses federal land owned
by the U.S. Government for military training, including to
prepare U.S. forces deploying overseas for the terrain and
climate they will encounter, as well as for testing of new
military technologies. We note that such access to U.S. federal
lands facilitates military preparedness and advances the
technological edge of our forces. Therefore, we believe such
activities should be given priority consideration with regard
to the use of land owned by the United States.
Indemnification of transferees of property at military installations
closed since October 24, 1988, that remain under the
jurisdiction of the Department of Defense

Sands Missile Range, New Mexico
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 2941) that would
amend section 2951 of the Military Construction Authorization
Act for Fiscal Year 2014 (division B of Public Law 113-66) and
extend the withdrawal and reservation of public land at White
Sands Missile Range, New Mexico, to include Federal lands
located beneath the boundaries of the Special Use Airspace
designated as R-5107C and R-5107H.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar
provision.
The agreement does not include this provision.
We note that on June 4, 2014, the Secretary of Defense
proposed mitigation measures that, if adopted, are intended to
address the Department of Defense's (DOD) concerns with
potential impacts to military operations by the SunZia
Southwest Transmission project (SunZia). Most notably, the
Secretary proposed the burial of a total of approximately five
miles, in up to three separate segments, of the SunZia project
transmission line along the Bureau of Land Management's (BLM)
preferred alternative route (PAR) north of White Sands Missile
Range (WSMR), within an area known as the Northern Extension
Area (NEA). We further note that the Secretary's proposed
mitigation plan was accepted by SunZia on July 27, 2014, and is
now being reviewed by BLM in the context of an Environmental
Assessment that we anticipate will be completed in February
2015.
As we noted in the Joint Explanatory Statement to accompany
the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2014
(Public Law 113-66), we expressed our expectation that DOD
concerns would be addressed by the executive branch prior to
the conclusion of the environmental review process to preserve
the critical testing and training capabilities of WSMR. We
continue to have concerns about the impact the SunZia project
may have on these capabilities. We are specifically concerned
that the mitigation measures proposed by the Secretary of
Defense are intended to address existing and expected test
profiles, but may not be sufficient to provide for future
training and testing requirements at WSMR.
Therefore, we direct the Secretary of Defense to submit a
report to the congressional defense committees, concurrent with
the completion of the BLM Environmental Assessment, that
assesses the potential impact of the SunZia project on the
future training and testing capabilities of WSMR to respond to
potential future threats. The report shall include, at a
minimum, an explanation of the Secretary's proposed mitigation
plan, including:
(1) How the proposed mitigation plan addresses
concerns identified in the ``Technical Working Group
Report for the SunZia Transmission Line Project'' dated
August 7, 2013, including the following specific
excerpts:
(a) Line Burial--``The distance required for
line burial is 35 miles. This is the minimum
distance necessary to prevent impairment of the
Nation's unique capabilities to test DOD weapon
systems in this location.''
(b) Electromagnetic Interference (EMI)--
``Introduction of the 500 kV overhead
transmission lines in the NEA would raise the
background noise level and create a heat
signature that would be detected during
infrared (IR) sensor testing. At present, there
is very limited EMI interference within the
NEA.''
(c) Test mission profiles--``The above-ground
construction and introduction of the SunZia
transmission line along the FEIS [Final
Environmental Impact Statement] PAR places an
obstruction in the path of low-level flyers,
thus jeopardizing the effective conduct of
testing. Targets flying critical low-level
profiles would have to ``pop up'' from those
flight levels to avoid transmission lines. The
FAA [Federal Aviation Administration] requires
a 500 foot buffer above structures for safety
considerations. Such a ``pop up'' would
prematurely provide identification and
targeting and thus disrupt and invalidate the
test mission profile because of the change in
the observed background clutter.''
(d) Multiple Simultaneous Engagement (MSE) of
Aerial Targets--``The most stressing and
complex test missions involve MSE of aerial
targets in a single presentation. This
requirement alone mandates the 35-mile
underground installation of the transmission
line to ensure that incoming targets are in the
proper alignment to the background clutter for
a realistic presentation.''
(2) How the SunZia project and proposed mitigation
plan could impact future training and testing events at
WSMR;
(3) An identification of any additional mitigation
measures that may be necessary in the future to protect
the unique capabilities of WSMR should new training or
testing requirements arise; and
(4) An assessment by the Secretary of the DOD
Clearinghouse process as it relates to the SunZia
project, including:
(a) The extent to which the DOD Clearinghouse
identified and communicated potential negative
impacts of the SunZia project to WSMR in a
timely manner; and
(b) Any legislative or policy changes the
Secretary would recommend to improve the
ability of DOD Clearinghouse to advocate for
and protect DOD equities.
(5) Any other matters the Secretary deems
appropriate.
We note that the report required above is not intended to,
in any way, delay the completion of the BLM Environmental
Assessment associated with the SunZia Southwest Transmission
project.

that the nuclear security enterprise produces at least 30 war
reserve pits during 2023, at least 50 war reserve pits during
2026, and, during a pilot period of at least 90 days during
2027, demonstrates the capability to produce war reserve pits
at a rate sufficient to produce 80 pits per year. The Secretary
of Energy would be required to certify to the congressional
defense committees and the Secretary of Defense, by March 1 of
each year until 2027, that the programs and budget of the
Department of Energy will meet these pit production milestones.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar
provision.
The agreement includes the House provision with an
amendment that, in addition to striking the findings, would
require initial production of qualification pits in 2021,
production of not less than 10 war reserve pits during 2024,
production of not less than 20 war reserve pits during 2025,
production of not less than 30 war reserve pits during 2026,
and a pilot production period during 2027 that demonstrates the
capability to produce 80 pits per year. The agreement provides
the Secretary of Energy and the Secretary of Defense the
authority to delay the requirement for the pilot demonstration
in 2027 no more than two years to 2029. If the Secretaries
jointly delay the pilot demonstration, they must submit a
report to the congressional defense committees describing the
justification for the proposed delay, the impacts of the
proposed delay on stockpile stewardship, nuclear modernization,
life extension programs, future stockpile strategy, and
dismantlement efforts, as well as their assessment regarding
whether the delay is consistent with national policy regarding
creation of a responsive nuclear infrastructure. The Commander,
U.S. Strategic Command would also be required to submit a
report to the congressional defense committees on the potential
risks of the proposed delay in meeting nuclear deterrence
requirements and national requirements related to creation of a
responsive nuclear infrastructure.
Life-cycle cost estimates of certain atomic energy defense capital
assets (sec. 3113)
The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision
(sec. 3111) that would amend the Atomic Energy Defense Act to
require that, under Department of Energy Order 413.3, an
independent life-cycle cost estimate is conducted prior to
certain atomic energy defense capital asset projects that have
achieved critical decision 2 in the acquisition process. The
provision clarifies that this requirement applies only to
atomic energy defense capital assets where the total project
cost exceeds $100.0 million and where the purpose of the
capital asset is to perform a limited-life, single-purpose
mission.
The House bill contained no similar provision.
The agreement includes Senate provision.
We note that this requirement applies only to single-
purpose, limited-life facilities such as the Mixed Oxide Fuel
Fabrication Facility in South Carolina and the Waste Treatment
and Immobilization Plant in Washington. It is not intended to
be applied to multi-mission, long-life facilities such as the
Uranium Capabilities Replacement Project in Tennessee or the
replacement facilities for the Chemistry and Metallurgy
Research facility in New Mexico. We believe this provision will
help reduce the likelihood of large and unexpected increases in
life-cycle cost estimates late in the acquisition process for
these types of facilities.
Expansion of requirement for independent cost estimates on life
extension programs and new nuclear facilities (sec. 3114)
The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision
(sec. 3112) that would require independent cost estimates
earlier in the acquisition process for life extension programs
and new nuclear facilities.
The House bill contained no similar provision.
The agreement includes the Senate provision with an
amendment that would require an independent cost review at the
completion of phase 6.2.
We believe that, in the early stages of concept definition,
there are often many options still under consideration and it
would not be cost effective to perform a full independent cost
estimate for each option. A less formal independent cost review
at phase 6.2 has been determined to give sufficient cost
guidance to determine which options should proceed further in
the acquisition process.
Definition of baseline and threshold for stockpile life extension
project (sec. 3115)
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 3114) that would
amend section 4713 of the Atomic Energy Defense Act (50 U.S.C.
2753) to clarify that the cost and schedule baseline of a
nuclear stockpile life extension project established pursuant
to such section shall be the cost and schedule contained in the
weapon design and cost report that was required prior to the
project entering into the development engineering phase. This
section would also lower the threshold for congressional
notification on costs per warhead exceeding the baseline from
200 percent to 150 percent.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar
provision.
The agreement includes the House provision with an
amendment that would clarify that the cost and schedule
baseline for a stockpile life extension project would be the
cost and schedule described in the first Selected Acquisition
Report submitted under section 4217(a) of the Atomic Energy
Defense Act (50 U.S.C. 2537(a)).
Authorized personnel levels of National Nuclear Security Administration
(sec. 3116)
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 3114) that would
amend section 3241A of the National Nuclear Security
Administration Act (50 U.S.C. 2441a) to require that, by
October 1, 2015, the total number of employees within the
Office of the Administrator may not exceed 1,650.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar
provision.
The agreement includes the House provision with an
amendment that would limit the number of employees to 1,690.
Cost estimation and program evaluation by National Nuclear Security
Administration (sec. 3117)
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 3131) that would
amend section 3221(h) of the National Nuclear Security
Administration Act (50 U.S.C. 2411) to clarify that the term
``Administration,'' with respect to any authority, duty, or
responsibility provided by section 3211, does not include the
Office of Naval Reactors.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar
provision.
The agreement includes the House provision with a technical
amendment.
Cost containment for Uranium Capabilities Replacement Project (sec.
3118)
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 3113) that would
amend section 3123 of the National Defense Authorization Act
for Fiscal Year 2013 (Public Law 112-239), as amended by
section 3126 of the National Defense Authorization Act for
Fiscal Year 2014 (Public Law 113-966), to clarify that the
Secretary of Energy may adjust the statutory cost cap of $4.2
billion for Phase I of the Uranium Capabilities Replacement
Project (UCRP) if, by March 15, 2015, the Secretary of Energy
submits to the congressional defense committees a detailed
justification for such adjustment.
This provision would also require the Secretary of Energy
to certify to the congressional defense committees and the
Secretary of Defense by March 1 of each year through 2025, that
Phase I of the UCRP will meet the cost cap of $4.2 billion (as
adjusted) and that the UCRP will enable uranium operations in
building 9212 of the Y-12 National Security Complex to cease by
2025, while uranium operations begin in a new facility
constructed under the UCRP by 2025.
The provision would further require the Secretary of Energy
and the Secretary of the Navy to jointly submit a report to the
congressional defense committees by March 1, 2015, on
implementation of section 3123(e) of National Defense
Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2013 (Public Law 112-239), as
amended.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained a similar
provision (sec. 3113) that would require, before beginning
construction of the replacement for building 9212, the
technologies (or their substitutes) that are to go into the
replacement building have a technology readiness level of at
least seven. Technologies (or their substitutes) that were in
building 9212 that do not go into the replacement building are
also to have a technology readiness level of at least seven.
The agreement includes the House provision with an
amendment that combines the two provisions while striking the
sense of Congress in the House provision.
Production of nuclear warhead for long-range standoff weapon (sec.
3119)
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 3116) that would
require the Secretary of Energy to deliver a first production
unit for a nuclear warhead for the long-range standoff weapon
not later than September 30, 2025. This provision would also
require the Secretary of Energy and the Secretary of Defense to
jointly develop a plan to carry out this mandate and require
the Secretaries to submit this plan to the congressional
defense committees within 180 days after the date of enactment
of this Act.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar
provision.
The agreement includes the House provision with an
amendment that would provide the Commander, U.S. Strategic
Command, the ability to defer the first production unit date by
up to 1 year if the Commander certifies to the Chairman of the
Nuclear Weapons Council and the congressional defense
committees that the delay is in the interest of national
security and does not negatively affect the ability of the
Commander to meet nuclear assurance and deterrence
requirements.
Disposition of weapons-usable plutonium (sec. 3120)
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 3117) that would
require the Secretary of Energy to specifically carry out
construction and program support activities with fiscal year
2015 funds authorized for the Mixed Oxide Fuel Fabrication
Facility (MFFF). For construction and program support
activities. Program support activities are defined as those
activities in support of the design, long-lead equipment,
procurement, and site preparation for the MFFF.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar
provision.
The agreement includes the House provision with an
amendment that would clarify project support activities.
Limitation on availability of funds for Office of the Administrator for
Nuclear Security (sec. 3121)
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 3118) that would
limit the availability of funds authorized to be appropriated
by this Act or otherwise made available for fiscal year 2015
for the National Nuclear Security Administration's (NNSA)
Office of the Administrator to not more than 75 percent of the
above until several statutorily required reports are submitted
to certain congressional committees in 2015. These include:
(1) The report on stockpile assessments required
under section 4205(f)(2) of the Atomic Energy Defense
Act (50 U.S.C. 2525(f)(2));
(2) The Secretary of Energy's portion of the report
required by section 1043 of the National Defense
Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2012 (Public Law 112-
81);
(3) The annual assessment required under section 3122
of Public Law 112-81; and
(4) The detailed report on the stockpile stewardship,
management, and infrastructure plan required by section
4203(b) of the Atomic Energy Defense Act (50 U.S.C.
2523(b)).
The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar
provision.
The agreement includes the House provision with a
clarifying amendment.
Limitation on availability of funds for nonproliferation activities
between the United States and the Russian Federation (sec.
3122)
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 3120) that would
prohibit the use of fiscal year 2015 funds for the National
Nuclear Security Administration (NNSA) for any contact,
cooperation, or transfer of technology between the United
States and the Russian Federation until the Secretary of
Energy, in consultation with the Secretary of State and
Secretary of Defense, certifies to the appropriate
congressional committees that the Russian Federation is
respecting the sovereignty of Ukrainian territory, is no longer
acting inconsistently with the Intermediate-range Nuclear
Forces Treaty, and is in compliance with the Treaty on
Conventional Armed Forces in Europe.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar
provision.
The agreement includes the House provision with an
amendment that unless specifically authorized by Congress,
International Material Protection, Control and Accounting
activities in the Russian Federation, except those associated
with the Plutonium Management and Disposition agreement, shall
be completed no later than fiscal year 2018. In addition, the
amendment prohibits any fiscal year 2015 funding for the
transfer of Multiple Integrated Laser Engagement System
technology from the United States to the Russian Federation.
We note that the Material Protection, Control and
Accounting activities in the Russian Federation has secured
nuclear material facilities in Russia since the breakup of the
Soviet Union. Assisting Russia in securing nuclear materials
has been in the national security interests of the United
States. However, given that that the majority of work has been
completed at facilities over the past 20 years, we believe that
physical work on this program should be completed no later than
fiscal year 2018. We understand that this is also the target
timeframe for completion set by the NNSA. This does not rule
out continued exchange of best practices in physical security
in such areas as insider threat, developments in security
technology, as well as other appropriate compensatory measures
or other areas of mutual benefit in securing nuclear material.
If areas of concern emerge that require additional physical
security work in Russia after fiscal year 2018, and that work
is of benefit to the security interests of the United States,
it can be part of an annual budget request which can be
reviewed by the congressional defense committees. We understand
that Rosatom is evaluating the ongoing work with the NNSA and
expects to be promptly informed of any change in status of the
relationship between Rosatom and the NNSA.
We believe that the NNSA should not be providing Multiple
Integrated Laser Engagement System (MILES) technology. We
understand MILES technology is a tactical force-on-force
trainer employed by the U.S. military and believe it is
inappropriate to be providing military-grade technology to the
Russian Federation at a time when Russia has exercised
aggressive actions towards U.S. partners and allies.
Identification of amounts required for uranium technology sustainment
in budget materials for fiscal year 2016 (sec. 3123)
The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision
(sec. 3116) that would require the Administrator for Nuclear
Security to include in the fiscal year 2016 budget request a
uranium sustainment budget line for technology development past
technology readiness level five so that plant-directed research
and development (R&D) at facilities such as Y-12 can
concentrate on projects involving technology readiness level
four and below.
The House bill contained no similar provision.
The agreement includes this provision.
Subtitle C--Plans and Reports
Analysis and report on W88 Alt 370 program high explosives options
(sec. 3131)
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 3132) that would
require the Secretary of the Navy, the Administrator for
Nuclear Security, and the Chairman of the Nuclear Weapons
Council to submit a joint report to the congressional defense
committees within 90 days after the date of the enactment of
this Act on the W88 Alt 370 nuclear warhead program. The report
would be required to contain analysis of the costs, benefits,
risks, and feasibility of both including and not including a
refresh of the conventional high explosives of the W88 warhead
as part of the W88 Alt 370 program.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar
provision.
The agreement includes this provision.
Analysis of existing facilities and sense of Congress with respect to
plutonium strategy (sec. 3132)

require the Administrator for Nuclear Security to submit a
report to the congressional defense committees not later than
270 days after the date of enactment of this Act containing an
analysis of using or modifying existing facilities across the
nuclear security enterprise to support the plutonium strategy
of the National Nuclear Security Administration.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar
provision.
The agreement includes the House provision with an
amendment that would require the Administrator to include, as
part of the Administrator's planned analysis of alternatives
for Critical Decision 1 of the plutonium strategy, an analysis
of using or modifying existing facilities of the nuclear
security enterprise. The Administrator would be required to
submit the analysis to the congressional defense committees
within 30 days of completing it. The amendment would also add a
sense of Congress regarding the commitments made by the
Chairman of the Nuclear Weapons Council on July 25, 2014,
regarding a strategy to carry out a modular building strategy
for plutonium capabilities.
Plan for verification and monitoring of proliferation of nuclear
weapons and fissile material (sec. 3133)

require the President, in consultation with the Secretaries of
State, Homeland Security and Energy as well as the Director of
National Intelligence, to develop an interagency plan for
verification and monitoring related to the potential
proliferation of nuclear weapons, components of such weapons
and fissile material. Such plan would be due to the appropriate
congressional committees no later than September 1, 2015.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar
provision.
The agreement includes this provision.
Comments of Administrator for Nuclear Security and Chairman of Nuclear
Weapons Council on final report of Congressional Advisory Panel
on the Governance of the Nuclear Security Enterprise (sec.
3134)
The Senate committee-reported bill contained a provision
(sec. 3115) that would require the Administrator of the
National Nuclear Security Administration to respond within 90
days to the findings of the Congressional Advisory Panel on the
Governance of the Nuclear Security Enterprise, created in
section 3166 of the National Defense Authorization Act for
Fiscal Year 2013 (P.L. 112-239), which shall be submitted to
the congressional defense committees.
The House bill contained no similar provision.
The agreement includes the Senate provision with an
amendment that would also require separate comments on the
advisory panel's report from the Chairman of the Nuclear
Weapons Council. The amendment would also clarify that comments
are required only on the advisory panel's final report and that
such comments are due 90 days after enactment of this Act.
Subtitle D--Other Matters
Establishment of Advisory Board on Toxic Substances and Worker Health;
Extension of Authority of Office of Ombudsman for Energy
Employees Occupational Illness Compensation Program (sec. 3141)

would state a sense of Congress that the President should
establish a federal advisory board for part E of the Energy
Employees Occupational Illness Compensation Program.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained a similar
provision (sec. 3114) that would create an advisory board
reporting to the Energy Employees Occupational Illness Program
on toxic substances and worker health.
The agreement includes the Senate provision with an
amendment that would ensure the advisory board functions only
in an advisory capacity pursuant to the Federal Advisory
Committee Act (5 U.S.C. 2(b)(6)). The amendment also includes
modifications to ensure the advisory board's members, staff,
and contractors do not have a conflict of interest and permits
the Secretary of Labor to employ outside contractors to support
the work of the board. The amendment would also clarify that
the advisory board provides advice to the Secretary of Labor
instead of the President and that the appointments to the board
should reflect a balance of perspectives from the scientific,
medical, and claimant communities.
We note that ``claimant communities'' should be interpreted
to include a mixture of the legal, worker, worker families,
worker advocate, and other relevant communities as the
President determines appropriate. The amendment would also
extend the authority for the Office of the Ombudsman in the
Department of Labor to 2019.
We further note that the Secretary shall ensure the Board
is provided the necessary support for the Board to perform its
functions, including program review and audit functions as
appropriate, and that the Department of Labor will consult the
Board regarding the need for and selection of outside technical
support, experts and contractors, consistent with the process
and support used by the Advisory Board on Radiation and Worker
found in section 7384o of title 42, United States Code, and
consistent with federal acquisition laws.
Technical corrections to Atomic Energy Defense Act (sec. 3142)

provision.
The agreement includes the House provision with an
amendment making additional technical corrections.
Technical corrections to National Nuclear Security Administration Act
(sec. 3143)
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 3142) that would
make technical corrections to section 3220 (50 U.S.C. 2410) and
section 3236 (50 U.S.C. 2426) of the National Nuclear Security
Administration Act.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar
provision.
The agreement includes this provision.
Technology Commercialization Fund (sec. 3144)
A proposed amendment to the Senate committee-reported bill
(amendment number 3510) contained a provision that would amend
section 1001(e) of the Energy Policy Act of 2005 (42 U.S.C.
16391(e)) by inserting after ``fiscal year'' the phrase ``based
on future planned activities and the amount of the
appropriations for the fiscal year.''
The House bill contained no similar provision.
The agreement includes this provision.
LEGISLATIVE PROVISIONS NOT ADOPTED
Additional limitation on availability of funds for Office of the
Administrator for Nuclear Security
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 3119) that would
limit the availability of funds authorized to be appropriated
by this Act or otherwise made available for fiscal year 2015
for the National Nuclear Security Administration's (NNSA)
Office of the Administrator to not more than 90 percent until
the date on which the Administrator for Nuclear Security
submits to the congressional defense committees a report on the
efficiencies proposed by the 2012 Joint Department of Energy/
Department of Defense Study on Potential NNSA Management and
Work Force Prioritization Efficiencies.
The Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar
provision.
The agreement does not include this provision.
We believe NNSA and the Department of Energy must undertake
robust and continuing efforts to find cost savings and cost
avoidances that enable NNSA to work more efficiently and
effectively. In the Conference Report accompanying the National
Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2013 (House Report
112-706), we expressed concern that the rise to unprecedented
levels of the cost of major stockpile and infrastructure
modernization projects leading to slippages in project
schedules could undermine the credibility of the nation's
nuclear deterrent. We also noted that administrative costs and
bureaucracy within the NNSA and the nuclear security enterprise
must be reduced and the enterprise must be refocused on
accomplishing its mission effectively and efficiently, as well
as safely and securely. We remain concerned about these
longstanding challenges.
In the context of these concerns, we appreciate the letter
of November 4, 2014 from the NNSA Administrator to the House
Armed Services Committee, committing to continue efforts to
make the nuclear enterprise more efficient. We believe this
process to seek efficiencies and productivity gains, proposed
by the Administrator in this letter, to be a small but hopeful
step in the right direction. We therefore endorse this proposal
and direct the Administrator for Nuclear Security, consistent
with his commitment, to provide a report to the congressional
defense committees by February 28, 2015, on the actions,
initiatives, and pilot programs the Administrator will
undertake in the remainder of fiscal year 2015 to realize
efficiencies within NNSA and the nuclear security enterprise.
This report should include specific opportunities identified by
the NNSA laboratories and plants and measures to eliminate or
streamline burdensome and ineffective transactional oversight.
We further direct the Administrator to submit a report to
the congressional defense committees by November 15, 2015,
containing the Administrator's assessment of whether the
actions, initiatives, and pilot programs previously identified
by the Administrator were successful.

Secretary of Energy certifies to the appropriate congressional
committees that such sites are not actively engaged in Russian
nuclear weapons, intelligence, or defense activities. The
prohibition includes a waiver for the President to submit a
notification that such a waiver is in the national interests of
the United States, that none of the funds will be contributed
to Russia's nuclear weapons program, and that a period of 30
days has elapsed following the date of the notification.
