JOINT EXPLANATORY STATEMENT OF THE COMMITTEE OF
CONFERENCE
The managers on the part of the House and the Senate at the
conference on the disagreeing votes of the two Houses on the
amendments of the Senate to the joint resolution (H.J. Res. 599),
making continuing appropriations for the fiscal year 1983 and for
other purposes, submit the following joint statement to the House
and the Senate in explanation of the effect of the action agreed
upon by the managers and recommended in the accompanying con-
ference report:
Amendment No. 1: Deletes the House provision for the Energy
and Water Development Appropriation Act, 1983 in Sec. 101 (a)(1).
Amendment No. 2: Deletes language proposed by the House and
stricken by the Senate which provides for projects and activities
funded in the HUD-Independent Agencies bill at the House or
Senate level, whichever is lower.
Amendment Nos. 3, 4, and 5: Provide that when an Act listed in
subsection 101(a) has been reported to the House or the Senate but.
not passed by that House by October 1, 1982, it shall be considered
as having been passed by that House.
Amendment Nos. 6, 7, and 8: Technical amendments that delete
proposed Senate conforming language.
Amendment No. 9: Specifies that off-budget appropriations for
the purchase and transportation of petroleum for the Strategic Pe-
troleum Reserve be continued at the fiscal year 1982 rate of. oper-
ations, the same as other activities covered in the Interior and Re-
lated Agencies Appropriation, as proposed by the Senate.
* RATE OF OPERATIONS FOR DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE
Amendment No. 10: Includes language which provides for con-
tinuing the activities of the Department of Defense at not to exceed
an annual rate for new obligational authority of $228,700,000,000,
and includes certain prohibitions on the use of the funds made
available. The House language would have provided for a rate of
operations not in excess of the current rate until the Defense Ap-
propriation Act, 1983, was reported in the House whereupon that
rate would prevail. The Senate language would have provided for a
rate of operations set forth in the Defense Appropriations Act,
1983, as reported to the Senate on September 23, 1982.
The managers have included a provision that prohibits the De-
partment of Defense from initiating or resuming any project or ac-
tivity for which appropriations or funds were not available in fiscal
year 1982. The managers have also specifically included prohibi-
tions of funding for initial production of the M-X missile and for
long lead or initial production of a second nuclear-powered aircraft
carrier. There is no prohibition on continuing Tong lead production
of the carrier for which long lead production was provided in fiscal
year 1982. By including these specific prohibitions, the managers
intended only to defer these and other funding initiatives until the
Congress has had an opportunity to act on the final funding deci-
sions. The programs specificall included 'on
are on yso_me major examples o funding issues
decided by Uongress. 'I a managers were of +he opinion t a+ fl

epa men a ense consult wit t e Appropriation Commit-
,
eration of this continuing reso u ion. The managers a so direct the
Department adhere the oT wer o-f the appropriation and fund-
ing ceilings for projects, subprojects and activities set forth in the
Department of Defense Appropriations Act, 1983, as reported to the
House of Representatives or the Senate. In no instance should
these ceilings be breached, and by the same token, these funding
ceilings should not by interpreted as mandatory obligational levels.
The intention of a continuing resolution is to proceed with the gov-
ernment's business at the lowest level possible, retaining Congres-
sional flexibility for funding decisions to be made at later time.
Congress should not be put in a position of being forced to fund
programs on which it has not yet had an opportunity to express its
will, since such action would impinge on its flexibility in arriving
at these final funding decisions.
The managers agreed further that in order to avoid costly inter-
ruptions in the industrial base, authorized and appropriated fiscal
year 1982 funds, including long-lead funds for defense programs,
should continue to be spent unless specifically prohibited by the
authorizing and appropriation committees of Congress.
The managers included a provision limiting variable housing al-
lowance payments. Regular military compensation consists of basic
pay, basic allowance for subsistence, and basic allowance for quar-
ters. Each of the components or regular military compensation is
affected by cost-of-living pay raise adjustments. Accordingly, this
year the determination to limit the pay raise to become effective
October 1, 1982, to four percent means that each of the components
would be reduced by four percent from the budgeted eight percent
pay raise. For those service members receiving basic allowance for
quarters, however, the variable housing allowance entitlement pro-
gram automatically makes up that four percent reduction for the
basic allowance for quarters component of regular military com-
pensation. The effect of this situation is to unfairly spread the
burden of the pay cap policy since only about one-third of the mili-
tary population now receives variable housing allowance payments.
Further, the variable housing allowance offsetting payments would
amount to about $137 million and would therefore reduce antici-
pated savings from the pay cap policy by that amount.
The limitation in this joint resolution assures that those variable
housing allowance payments that would otherwise offset the basic
allowance for quarters reduction due to the pay cap are not made.
Without this provision, the Congress would face the requirement to
fund $137 million in a supplemental bill for these payments, and
then make additional reductions of $137 million in other defense
programs to stay within its fiscal year 1983 spending allocations for
defense.
In fiscal year 1982, congressional report language directed the
Department of Defense to let each reserve component be free to de-
termine the appropriate mix of full time military and military

guage has been interpreted to mean that cost sholdnn x Tha man-

in H.R. 7073 for the fiscal year 1983; the Senate bill proposed fund-
ing as provided in S. 2939, subject to the termination date of the
continuing resolution.
The conferees have agreed on the following exceptions from S.
2939:
Item Confe.ence agreement
Joint Economic Committee ......................................................................... $2,327,000
Joint Committee on Taxation ..................................................................... 3,233,000
Congressional Budget Office ................................................................;1 ...... 14,825,000

Net direct appropriation ............................................................. _.., 449,000
General Accounting Office .......................................................................... 244,900,000
In addition, the conferees agree that the number of staff at the
Congressional Budget Office shall be limited to 222; and that the
Public Printer, during fiscal year 1983, may pay the travel ex-
penses of advisory councils to the Public Printer out of funds avail-
able in the Government Printing Office revolving fund.
Due to the lack of sufficient time on the legislative calendar, and
because the Committees on Appropriations in the House and
Senate each reported Legislative Branch appropriation bills that
are very close in their recommendations, the conferees have decid-
ed, after reaching agreement on the differences between the two
bills, to fund the Legislative Branch for the entire fiscal year 1983.
It is the intention of the conferees that fiscal year 1984 Legislative
Branch funding will be acted upon in regular order by both
Houses.
The conferees agree that no additional funding will be provided
for energy conservation in the Capital complex until a comprehe-
sive analysis of the accrued and estimated costs and benefits of the
program has been developed, together with a statement of appro-
priate goals. Also, in providing annual authority for the Informa-
tion Industry Council, an advisory body to the Public Printer, the
conferees direct that the Council shall be broadly representative of
all segments of the printing and publishing industry, including its
communications, typesetting, distribution and labor components.
Appointees to the Council shall be chosen for their experience and
technological expertise within the industry. The Council's task
shall be to advise and recommend methods and procedures to the
Public Printer for furthering the stated aims of Congress in the
field of public printing and distribution. All meetings of the Coun-
cil shall be open to the public.

6968), at a rate for operations and to the extent and in the manner
provided for in the conference report and joint explanatory state-
ment of the committee of conference as filed in the House of Repre-

which prohibits the disposal of any federal land tracts or lands
with national environmental or economic value until certain condi-
tions are met. The managers agree that, except where provided by
law and except in the case of land exchanges, certain requirements
must be met by the proper administrative agencies before federal
land tracts or lands with national environmental or economic value
can be disposed of. As it is not the managers' intend to circumvent
current law with respect to land disposals, the managers agree that
state in-lieu selections Alaskan Native Land selections, Desert
Land Entry selections, Carey Act land selections, Indian Allot-
ments, patents under the 1872 Mining Act, and other similar land
conveyances are activities "provided by law" and, therefore, not
subject to the specific requirements provided by this section.

the permanent legislation enacted in Public Law 97-91, approved
December 4, 1981, establishing the lottery and Charitable Games
Enterprise Fund. These changes were requested by the District gov-
ernment so that revenues generated from Lottery and charitable
games activities may be used to (1) permit the payment of fees
to
ticket agents and contractors supplying gambling paraphernalia
services, and (2) allow for the payment of prizes from revenues gen-
erated by these activities.
The conference agreement further provides that the Superior
Court of the District of Columbia may continue, within the re-
sources allowed under this resolution, the Volunteer Attorney Pro-
gram and the Community Workers Program, and may implement
the hearing commissioner program.
The Volunteer Attorney Program and the Community Workers
Program have been funded by Federal grant funds that will no
longer be available after September 30, 1982. Henceforth, they will
be funded from locally generated funds. Each of these programs is
provided for in both the House and Senate versions of the fiscal
year 1983 appropriations bills for the District of Columbia, which
are pending final action by the Congress.
Finally, the conferees have inserted language which allows the
Washington Convention Center to proceed towards its scheduled
opening late in colendar year 1982, at an annual rate of expendi-
ture of $5,725,000. This will allow the Center to hire the necessary
staff and make the required final preparations prior to the first
event in January, 1983. This amount does not allow for the pur-
chase of theatre style seats as proposed in the budget. That item
will be resolved during consideration of the regular fiscal year 1983
appropriations bill for the District of Columbia.

which would have appropriated $296,500,000 for community service
employment for older Americans under title V of the Older Ameri-
cans Act.
The conferees have deferred action without prejudice. While the
conferees support increased appropriations for this program, there
is still time to consider this matter in the regular fiscal 1983 Labor,
Health and Human Services and Education bill, since it is forward-
funded. The conferees intend to press for action on a regular
Labor-HHS bill, providing fully adequate funding for this program.

for continuation of activites under Title XV of the Public Health
Service Act at the rate authorized by section 101(b) of H.J. Res.

The House bill contained no similar provision.
Also inserts language proposed by the Senate providing that
funds appropriated for 1983 shall not be subject to reduction under
section 1521(dX2) of the Public Health Service Act for the duration
of the Continuing Resolution. The House bill contained no similar
provision.
The conferees have included bill language to continue the health
planning program at the current operating level. The conferees
direct the Department of Health and Human Services to make cer-
tain, in line with the authority in section 101(b) of this Resolution,
that funds flow without interruption to health planning agencies so
that they may continue to carry out their mission while the appro-
priate House and Senate committees continue their efforts to
reauthorize the health planning program.
Amendment No. 63: Changes the section number and appropri-
ates $34,000,000 for family medicine residencies as proposed by the

Hospital Insurance and the Federal Supplementary Medical Insur-
ance Trust Funds to support an annual operating level for Medicare
claims processing activities of $800,000,000, including $45,000,000
for this purpose which is currently available under section 118 of
Public Law 97-248.
No similar provision was included in the House bill.
The conferees have agreed to an interim funding level of
$800,000,000 for medicare contractors. This includes such amounts
as may be necessary, over and above the $45 million already made
available by P.L. 97-248 for this purpose, to achieve this operating
level. The 1982 funding level for this program was $711 million.
Amendment No. 65: Changes the section number and modifies
language proposed by the Senate related to certain claims submit-
ted by the States under various public assistance entitlements. The
revised language reads as follows:
Notwithstanding the decision of the United States Court of Ap-
peals for the District of Columbia Circuit in Connecticut v.
Schweiker (No. 81-2090, July 27, 1982), section 306 of Public Law
96-272, or section 1132 of the Social Security Act, no payment shall
be made, in or with respect to any fiscal year prior to fiscal year
1984, under this or any other Act, and no court shall award or en-
force any payment (whether or not pursuant to such decision) from
amounts appropriated by this or any other Act, to reimburse State
or local expenditures made prior to October 1, 1978, under title I,
IV, X, XIV, XVI, XIX, or XX of the Social Security Act, unless a
request for reimbursement had been officially transmitted to the
Federal Government by the State within one year after the fiscal

Approved For Release 2008/09/12 : CIA-RDP85M01133R000100140008-6
year in which the expenditure occurred. After fiscal year 1983, any
payment made to reimburse such State or local expenditures re-
quired to be reimbursed by a court decision in any case filed prior to
September 80, 1982 shall be made in accordance with a schedule, to
be established under the Social Security Act, over fiscal years 1984
through 1986.
No similar provision was included in the House bill.
On July 27, 1982, the United States Court of Appeals for the Dis-
trict of Columbia Circuit reversed a lower court decision which had
found approximately $382 million in claims by the States to have
been untimely filed under applicable appropriations restrictions
(Connecticut v. Schweiker, No. 81-2090). For the most part, these
claims arose under the AFDC, Medicaid and title XX programs.
Some of them related to expenditures under those programs occur-
ring almost thirty years ago. As of the date of this conference. the
appeal rights of the government in the case have not yet expired,
and there remains the possibility of Supreme Court review or other
court action affecting the eventual payment by the government of
these sums. The language agreed to is not intended to prejudice the
outcome of this court case either on behalf of the government or
for the States. The position of the Congress on this issue has al-
ready been amply expressed through its action on the fiscal year
1980, 1981 and 1982 appropriations bills and related continuing res-
olutions. The amendment is, however, intended to prohibit pay-
ment of any of these claims during fiscal year 1983: If the courts
determine that payments must be made, the language agreed to
provides a procedure for orderly payment of claims over a 3 year
period beginning in fiscal year 1984.
Amendment No. 66: Appropriates $18,000,000 for fiscal year 1983
to carry out the Runaway and Homeless Youth Act, as proposed by
the Senate, and changes the section number.
Amendment No. 67: Changes the section number and modifies
language proposed by the Senate relating to the Community Serv-
ices Block Grant. The conference agreement maintains the current
requirement that States "pass through" at least 90% of funds allot-
ted to them to local community action agencies and groups serving
migrant and seasonal farmworkers.
Amendment No. 68: Inserts new section as proposed by the
Senate extending the availability of funds appropriated in 1982 for
close-out activities of the former Community Services Administra=
tion.
