The Committee recottunend a upplemental appropriation of $41,750,000 of v,rhich 1,000 000 is to be derived by transfer from "Salarie and expenses, Antitrust Division." The a~rnount recotrunended is 4 000,000 more than the budget request and 40 250,000 more than the House allowance. DEI'E1ITIO . FACIUTY. The r conunendation includes $17,000 000 for the con truction of one of the two alien d ention centers requested by the Department of Justice. s pre ented to the Corrunittee, the Bureau of Prisons reque ted $35,000,000 fi r construction of two facilities, to be co-located \\'ith Federal Prisons, capable of housing 1 000 detainees. The Cotrunittee recognizes that more than 3,000 aliens are currently held in detention in arious locations in the United States as well as in Pueno Rico. There ha e been from time to titne, severe problems with overcrowding at the Krome onh detention facility, and the long-term a ailability of Fon Allen, Puerto Rico, is questionable. The Committee believes that the provision of additional adequate and sanitary facilities for the housing of aliens is necessary. However, the Committee questions whether it is necessary to con truct two facilitie of th~e size reque ted. Realizing that the influx of Haitians has fallen off considerably since last October, the Corrunittee believes there may be in ufficient ju tification for proceeding with the construction of two facilities. The Co1ru11ittee has been infonned by the Senators from Virginia that the conununity of Petersburg, Va. is strongly opposed to locating one of the detention centers at the existing Bureau facility in that city..

The Co1runittee does not recoJrutlend a requested supplemental appropriation of $10,000,000 ~or Radio Broadcasting to Cuba, Inc. (RBC, Inc.). Th~ese funds were requested to provide a grant to RBC, Inc. ~o b~oadcast news and commentary, sports, music, and other prograrns to Cuba. RBC.

Upon the request of the administration, legislation has been introduced in Congress to authorize Federal suppon for RBC, Inc.

JL,S()(),()()(). The Cotmnittee recotrunends a supplemental appropriation of $1,500,000 to meet the requirem~ents of the Criminal Justice Act. The number of defen~dants needing representation have exceeded the original projection for 1982. Supplemental funding ~otaling $1,223,000 is necessary ~o enable Defender Services to accotrunodate the ra~e of increase in the criminal caseload. The remaining 277,000 is necessary to provide a 9.1-percent cost-ofliving pay increase for cotrununicy defend~er organizations. This will mainlain th~e pay comparability between Federal, public. and community d~efend~er organizations. The Committee's fecotnJttendation is $850,000 less than the arnount requested. This reflects inforttlation supplied ~o the Cotrunittee subsequent to the submission of the supplemental request. •.



















•. CH PTER Ill DEP RT E. OF DEFE SE. ARY o F CoMMtrJ EE RECOMM~nATJO ·s. The Committee recomm~end appropriations for supplemental prograin requirem~ents of the Defen e Department totaling $492,754,000. This i a 1,929,596.000 reduction in the budget esti:rnate and a 125,194,000 increa e in th~e Hou e allowance. Generally, the Coxrunittee has recor1unend~ed full funding, by new appfopriation or by transfer, of the "must pay, items submitted by th~e Deparunent. Th~ese include such uncontrollabl~e cost increases as unfunded pay entitlements, inflation adjustments, and un,anticipated sh~onfalls in funding. With few exceptions, however, the Cotrunittee has rejected proposals to initiate or expan~d progra:r11s in the absence of urgent requirements or other unusual circumstances that are the basic criteria for supplemental appropriations. Many of the supplemental proposals can and should be considered in the normal appropriation process, many of them in the fiscal year 1983 defense appropriations bill. In addition, the Cotrunittee has recotrunended under title II of the bill $.5,175,.514,000 for increased pay costs of civilian and military personnel within the Defense Depanment This is $203,128,000 below the bu~dget estitnates and $53,600,000 under the House allowance. Pay supplemental recorrun~endations are discussed at the end of this chapter and tabulated later in the report The following table highlights the Conunittee's re~orru11endations for chapter III prograrn sup lementals by major funding area: (46) •.

Tunisia has been a close friend of the United States since gaining it in~dependence jn 1956. There have been many instances where, in international bodies, Tunisia has used its influence to support U.S,. interests. As well, it has allowed access to its port of Sixth Fleet vessels, including nuclear powered war ships. Just recently Tunisia has expressed its desire for a close military cooperation arrangement with the United States, and a United States-Tunisian joint military corrunission was established. This small country shares a border with Libya, and has frequently been subjected to that country's unfriendly actions. Continued good relations \\'ith this country is vital not only to U.S. interests, but to NA'TO's as well. Th~e FMS prograrn will be used to help purchase C-130 s, anillery, surface to air missiles and anti-tank missiles. Porluga,V. .20,000, 000 Portugal is a vital western ally, v.rhich is working hard to provide its shar~e of the corrunon defense of the West. Portu,gal s strategic position is ob\ i~ous and the importance of continued U.S. utilization of its military installations is very important. The FMS prograrn will be used to finance impro ements in Portugal's overall defense machinery, including U.S. ~equipment for anti-submarine warfare frigates, C-130 aircraft an~d spare t~o complete the transport squadron and supponing equipment I.

The Cornmittee reco1mnend that $3,000,000 of the ar11ount available for economic regulation in fiscal year 1982 be made available in fiscal y~ear 1983, the sa,rne as the House allowance and $700,000 more than the budget request As a result of an attrition rate that exceeded the Department's expectations, fewer reductions in force have been made than originally planned. Accordingly, considerably less is needed for severance pay requirements for fiscal year 1982. The Corrur1ittee expects th~e remaining funds to be used during fiscal year 1983 for added pro· grarn costs or to meet additional force reduction requiremenlS, if necessary. The Cotrunittee concurs with the House that the Deparunent should make every effort to retain the experienced attorneys and auditors. necessary for the handling and ultimate completion of all remaining compliance activities by the Economic Regulatory Administration. Without such experienced personnel, ERA will not be able to move as aggressi ely toward this end as previously mandated by the Congress and as fully supported by the administration.

Four thousand fony-seven units of housing funded by the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) and the Bureau of Indian Affairs (BIA) are under construction and will be completed during fiscal year 1982.

The Cotrunittee recotrunends no supplemental appropriation for pr · grarn managem~ent in the Health Care Fin,ancing Admini tration. Thi i $5,941,000 less than th~e administration request but in agreement ith the House decision to provide no funds. The administration had requested these funds in order to co er costs associated with a reduction in fo11ce at HCFA that \\'as to ha e taken place during tlle second half of fiscal 1982 and in fiscal year 1983. However, the fiscal year 1982 reduction in force has been canceled, since staff attrition has already reduced HCFA's personnel. The Com-mittee therefore recotrunends no funds for this purpose. Office of Demonstrations During its hearings this year, the Committee voiced its concern that the administration has apparently not given sufficient attention in drafting its procompetition proposals to the issue of interprofessional com· petition. The Committee was most pleased to learn that the Secretary has signed the nurse-midwife regulations and expects that these altemati e pro iders will be able to deliver high quality maternal care at a consid~erable savings. The Cotrunittee understands the Office of Technology Assessment contends that directly reimbursing other categories of nurse practitioners (such as geriatric nurse practitioners) can also be expected to help reduc health care costs. The Coxrunittee is interested in this matter and urges the Health Care Financing Administration to ad~dress this, as well as the mental health components of physical care, wilhin a ailable funding during the next year. SociAL SECuRITY AoMINISTRAno. T. The Cotrunittee believes that the Deparunent should give sufficient anention to the adverse impact that refugees have had on those States wh~ere they comprise a significant proponion of the o erall population. Most of the Depa·•nnent's documents to date h,ave addressed this issue in absolute numbers, rath~er th,an in per capita figures. This approach has espe~ially tended to minimize th~e apparent impact on smaller States such as Ha aii and Oregon which For Indochin~ese refugees have ratios of 1 to 159 (second nationally) and 1 to 164 (fourth nationally), respecti ely. The national average for these future citizens is 1 to 414..

The Committee has included 863,000 for the Sergeant at Anns to co er increa ed costs of local and long-distance telephone sen ice provided by C & P Telephone Co.

The Committee is concerned about the Senate's rapidly increa ing telephone costs and directs the Sergeant at Artns to continue to explore the fea ibility of less costly telephone services. The Cotrunittee has also inclu~ded $75,000 for the Secretary of the Senate. S~ection 107 of this title authorizes the Secretary to pay the General Services Administration to reimburse the Archivist of the United States for preservation of historic Senate records. The sum proided in this act is the initial installment of a 4-year preservation prograrn.

Effective October 1 1981, the allowance for administrative an~d clerical assistance of each Senator from the State of Florida is increased to that allowed Senators from States having a population of ten million but less than eleven million, the populati~on of said State having exceeded ten million inhabitants. The Census Bureau reports that Florida has added another 1 million residents. Florida Senators are therefore entitled to a larger clerk-hire all~owance. This a,n1endment spells out the new level..

(b) The third sentence of section 104 of title 3, United States Code, is repealed. (c) Amen,dments and repeals made by the preceding provisions of this section shall be effective in the case of compensati,on payable for months after December 1981. Senators, officers, and employees of the Senate are now paid bimonthly. The Vice President also receives his compensation from the Senates budget, but is paid monthly, pursuant to a 1948 law. This arnendment petmits the Vice President to be paid bimonthly, consistent with standard Senate practice. · PA YM~ll' OF OBLIGATIO S CHARGEABLE TO. RESC~TOED ~'"EXPEl'-'DED. BALA ·cES. SEC. 106.

Committee recommendation ........................................................................................................... .. The Alichitect of the Capitol has requested a total of 11,500,000 of Y.'hich 9,500,000 is for furni hings for the Philip A. Han Senate Office Building, and $2,000 000 is for afchitectural and engineering fees for modification an~d alterati~ons to the Russell and Dirksen Senate Office Buildings. The Han Senate Office Building features an interior afehitectural and en ironmental design based on a flexible arrangement of movable panitions, space dividers, partition-hung storage units accoustical panels, task lighting, and modular freestanding furniture. A 5-year study entitled "Senate Office Systems Research Project ' concludes that the traditional style furniture used in the Russell and Dirksen Buildings would not be suitable for the Hart Building. This is because office suites in Russell and Dirksen are comprised of several small rooms whereas office suites in the Hart Building are composed of a few very large rooms some of which will seat a dozen or more staff members. Funds for furniture and furnishings were deferred in 1979 when construction costs escalated. Two model suites are in planning for the Han Building one with traditional furniture, and one with modular furniture. Determination of the need for m~odular furniture will be made after careful comparison of potential work efficiency in these two suites. Without this comparison, th~e Committee cannot recornmend any appropriation for furniture and furnishing at this ti:me. The Architect also requested $2,000,000 for architectural and engineering fees for proposed Russell and Dirksen Building modifications. Th~e Co1mnittee is recommending no funds for this purpose, as fundamental decisions regarding th~e scope of modifications to the Russell and Dirksen Buildings ha e yet to be made.

The Committee recorrunends a supplemental appropriation of 16,604,000 for in estigations and collections acti ities at IRS. This arnount i $5,000 000 below the budget estitnate and $2,517,000 below lhe House-pa sed bill. The in estigations and collections appropriation provides for enforcing statutes relating to detection and investigation of crimin.al violations of the internal revenue laws collecting unpaid accounts, securing unfiled tax returns and paymentS monitoring employee pension plans, detennining qualificati~ons of organizations seeking tax exempt status, and exarr1ining tax returns of exempt organizations. ADVA ·cE HIRING INITIATIVE. Of the total a:rn~ount requested for investigations and collections, $10,716 000 and 1,600 new positions are being sought by IRS in conjunction with its advance hire initiative.The Cotrunittee recotrunends that 5,716 000 be appropriated for the advance hiring initiative in inestigations and collections. The Cotntnittee concurs with the House that savings of $2,483,000 and 100 a erage positions can be achieved solely because the supplemental funding included in the bill will not become a\'ailable until later than th~e Service anticip,ated. The Commit~ee believes that an additional 2,517 000 redu~ction below the House le el and the supplem~ental budget estimate is justified in view of th,e Service's action taken to hire new personnel in the absence of either a deficiency apponionment from the Office of Management and Budget or a supplemental appropriation from th~e Congress. gain th,e Corru11ittee directs the IRS to absorb from ithin existing IRS funds the additional $2 517,000 necessary to keep the new investigations and collections advance hire workforce on board until the end of the current fiscal year.

In the absence of the supplemental arnount requested, the Office of Personnel Management will have insufficient funds to make payments due to health benefits carriers for the month of July due in August.

This supplemental appropriation of $303,257,000 is requested under section 8348(f), title 5, United States Code, which states that any statute which authorizes "increases in pay on which benefits are computed is deemed to authorize appropriations to the fund to finance the unfunded liability created by that statute." The arnount requested constitutes the first of 30 payments designed to atnortize the cost to the retirement system of the 4.8 percent October 1981 pay raise. Such arnortization payments are traditionally requested in the form of supplemental appropriations because the amount of the pay raise for any year is not known at the time that year's budget is developed. The funds requested \viii be held by the Civil Service Retirement and Disability Fund and in the fortn of Govettunent securities until such time as they are needed for benefit payments. A postponement or cancellation of this supplemental request would not have any short-range effect on the retirement fund's ability to finance current benefit payments to annuitants; however, a continued policy of such defertnents would eventually diminish the assets of the fund to the state recognized prior to g7-116 0 - 8 2 - 13.
