Revenues from Federal Oil and Gas Management Reforms

Federal oil and gas management reforms. The Budget includes a package of legislative reforms to bolster and backstop administrative actions being taken to reform the management of DOI's onshore and offshore oil and gas programs, with a key focus on improving the return to taxpayers from the sale of these Federal resources. Proposed statutory and administrative changes fall into three general categories: 1) advancing royalty reforms, 2) encouraging diligent development of oil and gas leases, and 3) improving revenue collection processes. Royalty reforms include: establishing minimum royalty rates for oil, gas, and similar products; adjusting the onshore oil and gas royalty rate; analyzing a price-based tiered royalty rate; and repealing legislatively-mandated royalty relief. Diligent development requirements include shorter primary lease terms, stricter enforcement of lease terms, and monetary incentives to get leases into production through a new statutory per-acre fee on nonproducing leases. Revenue collection improvements include simplification of the royalty valuation process and permanent repeal of DOI's authority to accept in-kind royalty payments. Collectively, these reforms will generate roughly $1.7 billion in net receipts to the Treasury over 10 years, of which about $1.2 billion would result from statutory changes. Many States will also benefit from higher Federal revenue sharing payments.

Bureau of Land Management

The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) is charged with the multiple use management of natural resources on more than 247 million acres of surface estate of public land, about one-eighth of the land in the United States. The BLM also administers approximately 700 million acres of onshore Federal mineral estate underlying BLM and other surface ownerships. In addition, BLM has trust responsibilities on 56 million acres of Indian trust lands for mineral operations and cadastral (land) surveys. The lands managed by BLM provide important natural resources, recreational and scenic values to the American people, as well as resource commodities and revenue to the Federal Government, States, and counties. It is the mission of BLM to sustain the health, diversity, and productivity of the public lands for the use and enjoyment of present and future generations. The Budget proposes legislation to establish a Congressionally-chartered National BLM Foundation. This Foundation will provide the BLM with an opportunity to broaden its partnership capabilities, leverage private funding, and focus public support for the BLM mission of protecting and restoring the natural, cultural, historical, and recreation resources on the Nation's public lands.

Land resources.—Provides for management of rangeland and forest resources; riparian areas; soil, water, and air activities; wild horses and burros; and cultural resources. The Budget funds rangeland management activities through a combination of direct appropriations and offsetting collections generated from a proposed three-year pilot program to assess an administrative processing fee on grazing permits. The fee recovers some costs associated with issuing grazing permits/leases on BLM lands. The funds from the fee will be used to address pending applications for grazing permit renewals. The BLM proposes a $2.50 per Animal Unit Month fee, collected along with current grazing fees. The BLM will promulgate regulations for the continuation of the grazing administrative fee for cost recovery after the pilot expires.

Wildlife and fisheries management.—Provides for maintenance, improvement, or enhancement of fish and wildlife habitats as part of the management of public lands and ecosystems.

Threatened and endangered species management.—Provides for protection, conservation, consultation, recovery, and evaluation of populations and habitats of threatened, endangered and special status animal and plant species.

Recreation management.—Provides for management and protection of recreational resource values, designated and potential wilderness areas, and collection and expenditure of recreation user fees. The Administration proposes to permanently reauthorize the Departments of the Interior and Agriculture recreation fee program under the Federal Lands Recreation Enhancement Act, which is set to expire on September 30, 2017.

Energy and minerals management.—Provides for management of onshore oil and gas; coal; geothermal and renewable energy resources such as wind and solar; other leasable minerals and mineral materials activities; and the administration of encumbrances on the mineral estate on Federal and Indian lands. The 2017 Budget funds oil and gas management activities through a combination of direct appropriations, permanent appropriations authorized by the National Defense Authorization Act of 2015, and offsetting collections generated from assessing fees for inspection activities. Proposed new inspection fees are expected to generate $48 million in 2017 that will be used to offset the costs of administering the BLM's oil and gas program.

Realty and ownership management.—Provides for management and non-reimbursable processing of authorizations and compliance for realty actions and rights-of-way (including Alaska), administration of land title records and completion of cadastral surveys on public lands. Provides for the processing of communication site use authorization requests.

Resource protection.—Provides for management of the land use planning and National Environmental Policy Act processes, including assessment and monitoring activities. Also ensures the health and safety of users of the public lands through remediation of abandoned mine lands and protection from criminal and other unlawful activities; the effects of hazardous material and/or waste; and physical safety hazards.

Transportation and facilities management.—Provides for construction and maintenance of administrative and recreation sites, roads, trails, bridges and dams, including compliance with building codes and standards and environmental protection requirements. These funds allow for the systematic management of facilities with critical health and safety concerns, and ensure the protection of natural and cultural resources and the environment. BLM funds all construction and deferred maintenance projects from this activity, including those on the Oregon and California grant lands.

Challenge Cost Share (CCS).—This program leverages non-Federal funding, in-kind services, and materials with Federal funding to conduct on-the-ground projects that improve the condition of the public lands. These conservation, restoration, and enhancement projects benefit forestry, range, riparian, fish, wildlife, threatened and endangered species, recreation, and cultural resources. No funds are requested for Challenge Cost Share activities in 2017.

National Conservation Lands.—Provides for the management of National Monuments, National Conservation Areas, and other Congressional conservation designations in the National Conservation Lands. The program provides for the recurring operational (base) budgets of these units.

Workforce and organizational support.—Provides for the management of specified bureau business practices, such as human resources, Equal Employment Opportunity, financial resources, procurement, property, information technology, and fixed costs.

Mining law administration.—Provides for exploration and development of minerals on public lands pursuant to the General Mining Law of 1872, including validity examinations, patent application reviews, enforcement of environmental and bonding requirements, and recordation of mining claims. Program costs are expected to be fully offset by claim maintenance and other fees in 2017.

Permanent operating funds accounts include:

Operations and maintenance of quarters.—Funds in this account are used to maintain and repair Bureau of Land Management (BLM) employee-occupied quarters from which rental charges are collected. Agencies are required to collect rental charges from employees who occupy Government-owned housing and quarters. This housing is provided only in isolated areas or where an employee is required to live on-site at a Federally owned facility or reservation.

Forest ecosystems health and recovery.—Funds in this account are derived from revenue generated from the Federal share of receipts from the sale of salvage timber from the Oregon and California grant lands, public domain lands, and Coos Bay Wagon Road lands. Pursuant to P.L. 102–381, as amended, this account was established to allow BLM to more efficiently and effectively address forest health issues. Funds can be used for other forest health purposes, including release from competing vegetation and density control treatments. This account will expire on September 30, 2020 under current law.

Timber sale pipeline restoration fund.—This fund provides for the deposit and use of fees collected by BLM for sales of timber authorized by section 2001(k) of P.L. 104–19. Of the total deposited into this account, 75 percent is to be used for the preparation of timber sales to fill the timber pipeline on lands administered by BLM, and 25 percent is to be used to address recreation projects on BLM lands.

Stewardship contract product sales.—Stewardship contracting improves, maintains, or restores forest and rangeland health; restores or maintains water quality; improves fish and wildlife habitat; reestablishes native plant species and increases their resilience to insects and disease; and reduces hazardous fuels that pose risks to communities and ecosystem values. Stewardship contracting authority includes agreements with non-profits, best-value contracts, designation by description, end results, and goods for services.

Expenses, road maintenance deposits.—Users of certain roads under BLM's jurisdiction make deposits for maintenance purposes. Moneys collected are appropriated for necessary road maintenance. Moneys collected on Oregon and California grant lands are available only for those lands (43 U.S.C. 1762(c), 43 U.S.C. 1735(b)).

Federal Lands Recreation Enhancement Act, BLM.—The Federal Lands Recreation Enhancement Act (FLREA) was enacted on December 8, 2004, as part of the Consolidated Appropriations Act for 2005. The FLREA replaced the Recreation Fee Demonstration Program, and most current BLM sites have transitioned to the new program. All receipts collected under this authority are deposited to this account. The BLM returns 100 percent of these receipts back to the site where the fees were generated. The Administration proposes legislation to permanently authorize the recreation fee programs of the Departments of the Interior and Agriculture under FLREA. The FLREA is currently set to expire on September 30, 2017.

Operations and acquisitions in Nevada from land sale receipts.—Pursuant to P.L. 105–263, 85 percent of receipts from sales of public domain lands in southern Nevada are used to acquire environmentally sensitive lands in Nevada; make capital improvements to areas administered by the National Park Service, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and BLM in Clark County, Nevada; develop a multi-species habitat plan in Clark County, Nevada; develop parks, trails and natural areas and implement other conservation initiatives in Clark County, Nevada; and reimburse BLM for costs incurred arranging sales and exchanges under the Act.

Lincoln County Land Sales Act.—P.L. 106–298 authorizes the Secretary to dispose of certain lands in Lincoln County, Nevada, and distribute the proceeds as follows: five percent to the State of Nevada; 10 percent to the County; and 85 percent to an interest bearing account that is available for expenditure without further appropriation to be used by the Secretary of the Interior to acquire environmentally sensitive lands in the State of Nevada, for identification and management of unique archaeological resources, for development of a multi-species habitat conservation plan in the County, and for other specified administrative purposes.

White Pine County Land Sales Act.—P.L. 109–432 authorizes the Secretary to dispose of certain lands in White Pine County, Nevada, and to distribute the proceeds as follows: five percent to the State of Nevada; 10 percent to the County; and 85 percent to an account that is available for expenditure without further appropriation for the management of archaeological resources, wilderness protection, recreation activities, preparation of a management plan, reimbursement for sale costs, and other purposes.

Leases from Naval Petroleum Reserve No 2.—The 2005 Energy Policy Act established this fund for environmental investigation and restoration on that site located in Kern County, California. A portion of revenue from new leases on the site is authorized to be deposited to this account.

BLM Permit Processing Improvement Fund.—The 2005 Energy Policy Act, as amended by the National Defense Authorization Act, 2015, established pilot offices to improve interagency coordination in processing onshore Federal oil and gas permits. Fifty-percent of the rents from non-geothermal onshore mineral leases are authorized to be deposited in this fund and used to facilitate BLM oil and gas permit processing in these pilot offices. In addition, in 2016 through 2026, fees collected for processing applications for permits to drill will be deposited to this fund.

Federal land disposal.—The Federal Land Transaction Facilitation Act, P.L. 106–248 (114 Stat. 613), provided authority for BLM to sell public lands that were classified as suitable for disposal under resource management plans in effect at the time of enactment. This law provided that receipts from such sales could be used to acquire non-Federal lands with significant resource values that fall within the boundaries of areas now managed by the Department of the Interior. This authority expired on July 25, 2010, and was later reauthorized through July 25, 2011. All funds not obligated by both expiration dates were transferred to the Land and Water Conservation Fund. The Budget includes a proposal to reauthorize the Federal Land Transaction Facilitation Act. A separate legislative proposal to permanently authorize the LWCF will also be submitted with the Budget.

Owyhee Land Acquisition Account.—The 2009 Omnibus Public Land Management Act, P.L. 111–11 (123 STAT. 1039), provides that the Secretary may sell public land located within the Boise District of BLM that, as of July 25, 2000, was identified for disposal in appropriate resource management plans. Amounts in the account shall be available to the Secretary, without further appropriation, to purchase land or interests in land in, or adjacent to, certain wilderness areas.

Washington County, Utah Land Acquisition Account.—The 2009 Omnibus Public Land Management Act, P.L. 111–11 (123 STAT. 1091), authorizes the sale of public land located within Washington County, Utah, that, as of July 25, 2000, was identified for disposal in appropriate resource management plans. Amounts in the account shall be available to the Secretary, without further appropriation, to purchase land or interests in land in, or adjacent to, certain wilderness areas.

Silver Saddle Endowment Account.—The 2009 Omnibus Public Land Management Act, P.L. 111–11 (123 STAT. 1114), requires Carson City to deposit twenty-five percent of the difference between what the Secretary of the Interior and the City paid for the 62-acre Bernhard parcel before the Secretary conveys the land to the City. Amounts deposited in the account established by paragraph (1) shall be available to the Secretary, without further appropriation, for the oversight and enforcement of a certain conservation easement.

Carson City Special Account.—The 2009 Omnibus Public Land Management Act, P.L. 111–11 (123 STAT. 1113), authorizes the sale of 158 acres of public land described in the statute. Five percent of the proceeds are paid to the State of Nevada for use for public education. The remainder is deposited to this account and used to acquire environmentally sensitive land or an interest in environmentally sensitive land in Carson City; to cover the cost of surveys and appraisals; and to reimburse BLM for administrative expenses.

Ojito Land Acquisition.—The Ojito Wilderness Act authorized the sale of land to the Pueblo Indian Tribe and the purchase of land from willing sellers within the State of New Mexico.

Miscellaneous permanent payments include:

Payments for Oregon and California and Coos Bay Wagon Road grant lands, receipts.—The Secure Rural Schools and Community Self-Determination Act of 2000 (P.L. 106–393), as amended by P.L. 110–343 and by P.L. 112–141, provides annual transition payments to the 18 O&C counties. These payments were derived from revenues from Federal activities on O&C lands in the previous fiscal year that were not deposited to permanent operating funds, supplemented by amounts from the General Fund when necessary. The last payment authorized under P.L. 106–393 was in 2006. Section 601 of Division C of P.L. 110–343 amended and reauthorized the Secure Rural Schools Act (P.L. 106–393). Amendments to P.L. 106–393 retained most provisions of the original Act, but reduced payments each year. Section 10(a) of P.L. 113–40, 127 Stat. 545, provided authorization for 2013, for payments made in 2014. The Secure Rural Schools Act (SRS Act) was reauthorized by section 524 of P.L. 114–10 for two years and signed into law by the President on April 16, 2015. The Budget proposes a five-year reauthorization of the Secure Rural Schools Act with funding through mandatory appropriations beginning in 2017. Counties not opting to receive a portion of the USDA Forest Service payments to communities will receive funds authorized under the 1937 and 1939 statutes. Payments to the Oregon counties under the 1937 statute will be 50 percent of revenues from O&C grant lands. Payments under the 1939 statute are for lost tax revenue in two Oregon counties and are estimated to be 75 percent of all revenues from Coos Bay Wagon Road grant lands.

Payments to States (proceeds of sales).—States are paid five percent of the net proceeds from the sale of public land and public land products (31 U.S.C. 1305).

Payments to States from grazing receipts, etc, public lands outside grazing districts.—States are paid 50 percent of the grazing receipts from public lands outside of grazing districts (43 U.S.C. 315i, 315m).

Payments to States from grazing receipts, etc, public lands within districts.—States are paid 12.5 percent of grazing receipts from public lands inside grazing districts (43 U.S.C. 315b, 315i).

Payments to States from grazing receipts, etc, public lands within grazing districts, miscellaneous.—States are paid specifically determined amounts from grazing receipts derived from miscellaneous lands within grazing districts when payment is not feasible on a percentage basis (43 U.S.C. 315).

Payments to counties, National Grasslands.—Of the revenues received from the use of Bankhead-Jones Act lands administered by BLM, 25 percent is paid to the counties in which such lands are situated, for school and road purposes (7 U.S.C. 1012).

Payments to Nevada from receipts on land sales.—(A) P.L. 96–586 authorizes and directs the Secretary to sell not more than 700 acres of public lands per calendar year in and around Las Vegas, Nevada, the proceeds of which are to be used to acquire environmentally sensitive lands in the Lake Tahoe Basin of California and Nevada. Annual revenues are distributed to the State of Nevada (five percent) and the county in which the land is located (10 percent). (B) P.L. 105–263, as amended by P.L. 107–282, authorizes the disposal through sale of approximately 49,000 acres in Clark County Nevada, the proceeds of which are to be distributed as follows: a) five percent for use in the general education program of the State of Nevada; b) 10 percent for use by the Southern Nevada Water Authority for water treatment and transmission facility infrastructure in Clark County, Nevada; and c) the remaining 85 percent to a special fund administered by the Secretary of the Interior to be used to acquire environmentally sensitive lands in Nevada; make capital improvements to areas administered by the National Park Service, Fish and Wildlife Service, and BLM in Clark County, Nevada; develop a multi-species habitat plan in Clark County, Nevada; develop parks, trails, and natural areas and implement other conservation initiatives in Clark County, Nevada; and reimburse BLM for costs incurred arranging sales and exchanges under the Act. (C) P.L. 106–298 authorizes the sale of certain lands in Lincoln County, Nevada. The proceeds of these sales are to be distributed as follows: a) five percent to the State of Nevada for general education purposes; b) 10 percent to Lincoln County for general purposes with emphasis on supporting schools; and c) the remaining 85 percent to a special fund administered by the Secretary of the Interior to acquire environmentally sensitive lands in the State of Nevada, for identification and management of unique archaeological resources, for development of a multi-species habitat conservation plan in the county, and for other specified administrative purposes.

Cook Inlet Region, Incorporated Account.—This account received funding appropriated by section 9102 of the fiscal year 1990 Department of Defense Appropriations Act for the acquisition of Federal real properties, improvements on such lands or rights to their use or exploitation, and any personal property related to the land purchased by the Cook Inlet Region, Incorporated as authorized by the provisions of section 12(b) of P.L. 94–204 (43 U.S.C. 1611). The BLM maintains an accounting of the funds used by the Cook Inlet Region, Incorporated to purchase properties.

State 5 Percent Share, Carson City Land Sales.—The 2009 Omnibus Public Land Management Act, Public Law 111–11 (123 STAT. 1113), requires that five percent of proceeds from the sale of 158 acres described in the statute shall be paid to the State of Nevada for general public education purposes.

The Helium Act Amendments of 1960, P.L. 86–777 (50 U.S.C. 167), authorized activities necessary to provide sufficient helium to meet the current and foreseeable future needs of essential government activities. The Helium Privatization Act of 1996 (HPA), P.L. 104–273, provided for the eventual privatization of the program and its functions, specifying that once the helium debt is retired, the Helium Production Fund would be dissolved. The debt was repaid at the beginning of fiscal year 2014. The Helium Stewardship Act of 2013 (HSA), P.L. 113–40, provided for continued operation of the Helium program while facilitating a gradual exit from the helium market. The Helium program consists of: (a) continued storage and transmission of crude helium; (b) oversight of the production of helium on Federal lands; and (c) administration of in-kind and open market crude helium gas sale programs. To minimize impacts to the helium market, the HSA provides a "glide path" from the sales mandated under HPA, increasing the sales price of helium through an auction mechanism and reducing the total volume of helium sold each year, until the amount in storage reaches 3.0 billion cubic feet. At that point, the remaining helium will be reserved for Federal users. Additionally, HSA provides for a hard deadline to sunset the program and sell off the program assets by 2021.

The Bureau of Ocean Energy Management (BOEM) manages the exploration and development of the nation's offshore energy and marine mineral resources on the U.S. Outer Continental Shelf (OCS). These marine resources include vast deposits of oil and natural gas, non-energy minerals, as well as renewable resources such as offshore wind, wave and ocean currents. BOEM's goal is to balance economic development, energy security, and environmental protection through responsible and transparent management of offshore resources based on the best available science. In carrying out this mission, the Bureau manages a range of OCS activities. For offshore oil and gas , this includes conducting resource assessments; planning for the timing and location of OCS areas that will be offered for leasing; conducting lease sales ; permitting geological and geophysical activities; reviewing and approving exploration and development plans; and conducting environmental reviews at multiple steps in the process. In addition, BOEM supports planning, leasing, and permitting for OCS renewable energy development, as well as managing OCS sand and gravel resources.

The Ocean Energy Management account includes the following budget activities: Renewable Energy, Conventional Energy, Environmental Programs, and Executive Direction.

Renewable Energy.—Oversees renewable energy program development and implementation, including: identification of wind energy areas; environmental and compliance work; issuance of offshore renewable energy leases; review of site assessment, construction, and operation plans; and consultation with state and local governments, Federal agencies, and other stakeholders.

Conventional Energy.—Supports OCS oil and gas leasing, including development of the Five Year OCS Oil and Gas Leasing Program; conducting lease sales; administering leases; reviewing exploration and development plans; conducting technical and economic resource evaluation; and engaging in planning activities involving minerals other than oil and gas.

Environmental Programs.—Develops the environmental impact statements and environmental assessments needed to consider the potential environmental impacts of proposed actions in accordance with the National Environmental Protection Act, the OCS Lands Act, and numerous other environmental statutes, regulations, and executive orders. Also conducts specific studies that address information needs associated with both conventional and renewable energy leasing activities on the Outer Continental Shelf.

Executive Direction.—Funds bureau-wide leadership, management, coordination, and outreach. This includes budget management, congressional and public affairs, and program policy and analysis.

The Bureau of Safety and Environmental Enforcement (BSEE) was established on October 1, 2011, to ensure the safe and responsible development of our Nation's offshore energy resources. BSEE's continued focus is on safety and goes beyond simple compliance with regulations towards the adoption, by both industry and regulators, of a meaningful safety culture that permeates all offshore activities. The Bureau is responsible for the oversight of exploration, development, and production operations for oil and natural gas on the U.S. Outer Continental Shelf (OCS). The Offshore Safety and Environmental Enforcement (OSEE) account is BSEE's primary operating account and funds the following activities: Operations, Safety, and Regulation; Environmental Enforcement; Administrative Operations; and Executive Direction.

Operations, Safety, and Regulation. Funds safety activities associated with OCS oil and gas development plans and permits, including drilling permit application reviews; conducts facility inspections, including overseeing critical high-risk activities and identifying incidences of noncompliance with safety requirements; ensures offshore operators comply with oil spill planning and preparedness requirements; conducts accident investigations; oversees operator training and audit programs; conducts annual operator performance reviews; conducts research on emerging energy development technologies; and performs inspection verification of oil and gas production levels to help ensure the public receives a fair return from the sale of these public resources.

Environmental Enforcement. Funds environmental compliance activities related to issuing permits; inspections of environmental measures and enforcement of incidences of noncompliance, and monitoring industry compliance with mitigation and other environmental requirements through office and field inspections.

Administrative Operations. Funds general administration and ethics programs, equal employment opportunity services, emergency management, finance, human resources, procurement, and information management. This activity also provides a full range of administrative and information management services to the Bureau of Ocean Energy Management (BOEM), as well as select services to other Departmental entities.

Executive Direction. Funds bureau-wide leadership, direction, management, coordination, communications strategies, and outreach. This includes functions such as budget, congressional and public affairs, and policy and program analysis.

Environmental protection.—This activity funds those functions that directly contribute to ensuring the environment is protected during surface coal mining operations. It also addresses activities to ensure coal operators adequately reclaim the land after mining is completed.

Under this activity, the Office of Surface Mining Reclamation and Enforcement provides grants and support to States to operate enforcement programs on State and private lands under the terms of the Surface Mining Control and Reclamation Act of 1977. This activity also provides for the operation of enforcement programs on Federal and Indian lands, as well as Federal oversight of these regulatory programs.

Technology development and transfer.—This activity provides funding to enhance the technical skills that States and Indian Tribes need to operate their regulatory programs. It provides technical tools, such as the Applicant Violator System, to States and Indian Tribes to solve problems related to the environmental effects of coal mining and technical assistance to address specific coal mining issues.

Financial management.—This activity provides resources for managing, accounting, and processing collections and for pursuing delinquent civil penalties. This includes developing and maintaining information management systems that support these functions and enhance the agency's ability to deny new mining permits to applicants with unabated State or Federal violations.

Executive direction and administration.—This activity provides funding for executive direction, general administrative support, and the acquisition of certain agency-wide common services, such as rent, telephones, and postage.

In order to address the continuing legacy of abandoned mine lands (AML) on the health, safety, and environment of communities, the Budget proposes to make available to States and Tribes $1 billion from the unappropriated balance of the AML Trust Fund. The AML funding would be used to target reclamation of AML sites and associated polluted waters in a manner that promotes sustainable revitalization in economically depressed coalfield communities. Additionally, the budget proposes to return coal reclamation fee rates to their historic (pre-FY 2008) level and eliminate all payments to States who have certified the highest priority abandoned coal mines have been reclaimed.

P.L. 109–432, as amended, authorizes mandatory Treasury payments to all States and Tribes equivalent to their share of the accumulated balance of the Abandoned Mine Reclamation Fund (i.e. prior balance funds). Prior balance fund payments were made over the past seven years and were exhausted in FY 2015. The payments also return half of annual coal fee collections to States and Tribes that have certified completion of their abandoned coal mine reclamation programs.

The Budget proposes to eliminate mandatory payments from the Treasury to States and Tribes that have been certified as completing reclamation of their abandoned coal mines, so that abandoned mine lands funds are only used to clean up the most hazardous abandoned coal mines. The Budget also proposes to return coal reclamation fee rates to their historic (pre-FY 2008) levels so that additional funding will be available to reduce some of the remaining dangerous coal AML sites nationwide.

The Budget proposes to terminate the payments to certified States and Tribes. States and Tribes that have been certified as completing their coal AML reclamation work receive unrestricted payments from the Treasury for a share of industry coal fee contributions generated within their state. These States and Tribes have already certified that they have completed their abandoned coal mine reclamation projects and are now permitted to use their AML payments for any purpose.

P.L. 109–432 authorizes mandatory Treasury payments to three United Mine Workers of America retiree health benefit plans (the Combined Benefit Fund, the 1992 Plan, and the 1993 Plan), to the extent that other Federal funding sources do not meet the plans' expenditure needs, subject to certain limitations. Interest earned on Abandoned Mine Land trust fund balances is available for transfer to cover funding shortfalls in the plans; unobligated balances in the fund are used to generate interest for this purpose.

Under current law, total obligations derived from the general fund for Surface Mining, Control, and Reclamation Act (SMCRA) purposes cannot exceed $490 million a year. The Budget includes legislative proposals that would: (1) revise the formula for general fund payments to the 1993 Health Benefit Plan by taking into account all beneficiaries enrolled in the Plan as of enactment, as well as those retirees whose health benefits were denied or reduced as the result of a bituminous coal industry bankruptcy proceeding commenced in 2012, and (2) transfer to the 1974 UMWA pension plan the difference between that cap and other OSM obligations to the states and other health care plans. Payments would be made by the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation within the Department of Labor. The 1974 plan, which covers more than 100,000 mineworkers, is underfunded and approaching insolvency. Payments would continue until the plan is fully funded on a current liability basis.

Bureau of Reclamation

Appropriations to the Bureau are made from the General Fund and special funds. The source of funds are a) the General Fund, which funds other projects or programs. Among the projects funded from the General Fund are the Colorado River Basin Project and the Colorado River Storage Project; b) the Reclamation Fund, derived from repayments and other revenues from water and power users, receipts from the sale, lease, and rental of Federal lands, and certain oil and mineral revenues. Program activities that can be financed from the Reclamation Fund are those that directly benefit the 17 Western States and are for the purposes authorized under "Reclamation Law"; c) the Central Valley Project Restoration Fund, consisting of revenues from project beneficiaries; and d) other sources such as the Colorado River Dam Fund, which generates revenue from the sale of Boulder Canyon power, and the recreation, entrance, and user fee account, consisting of fees collected pursuant to the Land and Water Conservation Fund Act of 1965, as amended. Non-Federal entities also advance funds for operation and maintenance and provide funds under the Contributed Funds Act.

The Water and Related Resources account supports the development, management, and restoration of water and related natural resources in the 17 Western States. The account includes funds for operating and maintaining existing facilities to obtain the greatest overall level of benefits, to protect public safety, and to conduct studies on ways to improve the use of water and related natural resources. Work will be done in partnership and cooperation with non-Federal entities and other Federal agencies to reduce conflict, facilitate solutions to complex water issues, and stretch limited water supplies. The American West faces serious water challenges. Adequate and safe water supplies are fundamental to the health, economy, security, and ecology of the country. With increased demands for water, amplified recognition of environmental water requirements, and the potential for decreased supplies due to drought and climate change, a water balance cannot be achieved without water conservation and water reuse. In 2017, Reclamation will help address these issues through a water conservation program, which includes cost-shared grants for conservation and water and energy management improvement projects; basin-wide planning studies that will evaluate and address the impacts of climate change; cooperative watershed management; and funding of water reuse and recycling projects. Reclamation will also partner with States, Tribes and local entities under the program to develop incentives and best practices for implementing water and energy conservation and water recycling projects.

This account receives funding (user fees and repayment receipts) from the Friant Division long-term water contractors and other Federal and non-Federal sources to implement the provisions described in the Settlement (Settlement) for the National Resources Defense Council et. al. v. Rodgers lawsuit. The Settlement's two primary goals are: 1) To restore and maintain fish populations in "good condition" in the main stem of the San Joaquin River below Friant Dam to the confluence of the Merced River, including naturally reproducing and self-sustaining populations of salmon and other fish; and 2) To reduce or avoid adverse water supply impacts to all of the Friant Division long-term contractors that may result from the Interim Flows and Restoration Flows provided for in the Settlement.

The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) provides research and scientific information to support the mission of the Department of the Interior and its science requirements. The USGS also works in collaboration with other Federal, State, and tribal cooperators to conduct research and provide scientific data and information concerning natural hazards and environmental issues, including the water, land, geologic, and biological resources of the Nation. The USGS budget continues science programs that generate relevant, objective information for natural resource managers and for communities throughout the Nation and engages in partnerships with universities, research institutions, and major public and private laboratories.

Ecosystems.—The USGS Ecosystems mission area monitors and inventories biological resources and ecological systems; provides scientific information for the management of biological resources and their habitats; studies and predicts the consequences of environmental change and the effects of alternative management actions on plants, animals, and their habitats; conducts high priority ecological and biological research needed by Interior for sound management decisions; and operates the Cooperative Research Unit program, a university-based fish and wildlife research program focusing on graduate education and training of future natural resource professionals.

Climate and Land Use Change.—The USGS Climate and Land Use Change mission area conducts scientific research, monitoring, remote sensing, modeling, and forecasting to address the effects of climate and land use change on the Nation's natural resources. The resulting research and products are provided as the scientific foundation upon which policymakers, natural resource managers, and the public make informed decisions about the management of natural resources. Landsat satellites and data systems are developed, operated, and maintained to ensure a continuous, authoritative global record of changes to the Earth's land surface .

Energy and Mineral Resources and Environmental Health.—The USGS Energy and Mineral Resources and Environmental Health mission area includes scientific activities that support decision making related to natural resource security; environmental, wildlife, and human health; land and resource management; and economic development. The mission area provides scientific information for assessments and research on mineral and energy resource potential, production and consumption, and environmental impacts of permitting, extraction, and use in the United States and around the world. The mission area also provides information and tools to decision makers and the public regarding environmental contaminants and toxic substances, including impacts on susceptible ecosystems and implications for human, wildlife and fish health.

Natural Hazards.—The USGS plays a critical role in providing policymakers and the public with a clear understanding of potential threats from natural hazards, societal vulnerability to these threats, and strategies for achieving resilience to earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, landslides, floods, hurricanes, solar storms, tsunamis, and wildfires. The USGS Natural Hazards mission area is working with its partners and stakeholders to define and mitigate risks, build understanding of natural hazard processes, and characterize the potential impact and consequences on human activity, health, the economy, and the environment. This mission area includes USGS activities that characterize and assess coastal and marine processes, conditions, change and vulnerability.

Water Resources.—The USGS is one of the primary Federal science agencies that provides information about water resources. To fulfill this responsibility, the USGS Water Resources mission area produces data, analyses, and assessments, and develops methodologies to support Federal, State, tribal, and local government decisions in managing water resources for domestic, agricultural, commercial industrial, recreational, and ecological uses; protecting and enhancing water resources for human health, aquatic health, and environmental quality; minimizing loss of life and property as a result of water-related natural hazards, such as floods, droughts, and land movement; and contributing to sustainable stewardship and development of the Nation's resources for the benefit of present and future generations.

Core Science Systems.—The USGS Core Science Systems mission area conducts fundamental research and provides data about the Earth, its complex processes, and its natural resources. These activities provide the Nation with natural science information to support response planning for natural hazards and to manage natural resources. Core Science Systems produces geological, geographical, geophysical, and geochemical maps and three-dimensional geologic frameworks that provide critical data for sustaining and improving the quality of life and economic vitality of the Nation. As the Federal steward of elevation and hydrography information, Core Sciences Systems makes this information and other geospatial information available to the public through The National Map. This mission area creates the informatics framework and provides scientific content needed for understanding and stewardship of our Nation's ecological, geologic, and geospatial resources.

Science Support.—The USGS Science Support program funds essential science leadership as well as critical functions such as: scientific integrity processes; sharing and communicating science findings; purchasing science equipment and field supplies; executing science agreements with partners; contracting for support scientists and researchers; safety training; hazardous waste management; succession planning and execution; and information technology, which supports the scientific process and information management of scientific data. Science Support also provides Bureau-wide executive direction and coordination, business administration and financial management.

Ecological Services.—The Service conserves, protects, and enhances fish, wildlife, plants, and their habitat by working with private landowners, States, Tribes, non-governmental organizations, and other Federal agencies. These partnership activities help protect and recover species that are listed under the Endangered Species Act and work toward making the listing of additional species unnecessary. Financial assistance is provided to private landowners to restore or improve habitat for endangered species and other at-risk species. Technical assistance helps prevent or minimize adverse environmental effects of development projects. Contaminants are investigated, monitored, and assessed for effects on trust resources.

Habitat Conservation.—Through technical and financial assistance, the Service promotes the protection, conservation, and restoration of the Nation's fish and wildlife resources. These conservation activities are accomplished through a voluntary citizen and community based stewardship program with partners on private lands. Conserving the nation's coastal trust resources is accomplished through collaboration with others on public and private lands.

National Wildlife Refuge System.—The Service maintains the National Wildlife Refuge System consisting of 563 refuges, waterfowl production areas in 209 counties managed by 38 wetland management districts, and 50 wildlife coordination areas. The National Wildlife Refuge System administers this network of land and waters to conserve and restore fish, wildlife, plants, and their habitats, for the benefit of present and future generations of Americans.

Conservation and Enforcement.—The Service directs and coordinates national migratory bird programs to protect and enhance populations and habitat of more than 1,000 species of birds. Grants and partnerships are key to these programs, such as Joint Ventures that implement the North American Waterfowl Management Plan. The Service Law Enforcement program investigates wildlife crimes, regulates wildlife trade, helps Americans understand and obey wildlife protection laws, and works in partnership with international, State, and Tribal counterparts to conserve wildlife resources. The Service, through the International Affairs Program, works with private citizens, local communities, State and Federal agencies, foreign governments, and non-governmental organizations in the United States and internationally to promote a coordinated domestic and international strategy to protect, restore, and enhance the world's diverse wildlife and their habitats, with a focus on species of international concern.

Fish and Aquatic Conservation.—The Fish and Aquatic Conservation Program consists of 72 interconnected National Fish Hatcheries, one historic National Fish Hatchery, nine Fish Health Centers, seven Fish Technology Centers, 65 Fish and Wildlife Conservation Offices, and the Aquatic Animal Drug Approval Partnership Program. Working with partners, the program recovers, restores and maintains fish and other aquatic resources at self-sustaining levels; provides technical assistance to States, Tribes and others; and supports Federal mitigation programs for the benefit of the American public.

Cooperative Landscape Conservation.—Through a national network of Landscape Conservation Cooperatives (LCCs), and in cooperation with both Federal and non-Federal partners, the Service enhances its core capacity in biological planning and conservation design to strategically address the problems fish, wildlife, and plants will face in the future. The information gathered helps to define clear conservation objectives, inform conservation management decisions, focus management actions where they will most affect the landscape, and supply scientific knowledge and expertise needed most by the Service and its partners.

Science Support. —Science Support provides funding for applied science directed at high impact questions surrounding threats to fish and wildlife resources. This science provides critically needed information to inform regulatory and policy decisions to best manage species at healthy and sustainable levels across broader landscapes.

General Operations.—Funding for the Service's general operations provides policy guidance, program coordination, and administrative services to all of the Fish and Wildlife Service's programs. The funds also support the National Conservation Training Center and projects through the National Fish and Wildlife Foundation to restore and enhance fish and wildlife populations.

The State and Tribal Wildlife Grants program provides funds to States, Commonwealths, the District of Columbia, and Territories primarily through a formula-based apportionment. Additionally, a competitive program uses a merit-based process to fund the best outcome-oriented, results-based projects. At the discretion of affected States, the competitive program may be used by regional associations of State fish and wildlife agencies. Tribes also receive funds through a national competitive award process. These funds are provided to stabilize, restore, enhance, and protect species and their habitat that are of conservation concern, thereby avoiding the costly and time-consuming process that occurs when habitat is degraded or destroyed and species populations plummet.

Federal Land Acquisition funds are used to protect areas that have native fish or wildlife values and provide natural resource benefits over a broad geographical area. Funds in this account also cover acquisition management activities, such as title fees and land surveys. The Fish and Wildlife Service places emphasis on acquiring important fish, wildlife, and plant habitat for the conservation of listed endangered and threatened species. The Federal Land Acquisition program uses alternative and innovative conservation tools, including conservation easements, and implements projects that have the input and participation of the affected local communities and stakeholders. In addition, the 2017 Federal Land Acquisition program builds on efforts started in 2011 to strategically invest in interagency landscape-scale conservation projects while continuing to meet agency-specific programmatic needs. The Department of the Interior and the U.S. Forest Service collaborated extensively to develop a process to more effectively coordinate land acquisitions with government and local community partners to achieve the highest priority shared conservation goals.

The Landowner Incentive Program provided cost-shared, competitive grants to States, Commonwealths, the District of Columbia, Territories, and Tribes to create, supplement or expand upon new or ongoing landowner incentive programs. These programs provided technical and financial assistance to private landowners to help them protect and manage imperiled species and their habitat, while continuing to engage in traditional land use or working conservation practices. The program was phased out in 2008 and minimal balances remain in this account.

Funds deposited into this account include import duties on arms and ammunition and receipts in excess of U.S. Postal Service expenses from the sale of Migratory Bird Hunting and Conservation Stamps, also known as Duck Stamps. These funds are used to acquire land and water for migratory bird refuges and waterfowl production areas. In addition, any funds reverted from the States within the Federal Aid in Wildlife Restoration Fund are available for this purpose. The Federal Duck Stamp Act of 2014 (P.L. 113–264) increased the price of Duck Stamps from $15 to $25, with the $10 increase to be dedicated to the acquisition of conservation easements for conservation of migratory birds. The 2017 budget proposes legislation to enable future stamp fee increases with the approval of the Migratory Bird Conservation Commission.

Funds deposited into this account include direct appropriations and fines, penalties, and forfeitures collected under the authority of the Migratory Bird Treaty Act (16 U.S.C. 707). The North American Wetlands Conservation Fund supports wetlands conservation projects approved by the Migratory Bird Conservation Commission. Interest on obligations held in the Federal Aid in Wildlife Restoration Fund is also available for this purpose. In addition, a portion of receipts to the Sport Fish Restoration Account is also available for coastal wetlands conservation projects.

These projects help fulfill the habitat protection, restoration, and enhancement goals of the North American Waterfowl Management Plan and the Tripartite Agreement among Mexico, Canada, and the United States. These projects may involve partnerships with public agencies and private entities, with non-federal matching contributions, for the long-term conservation of habitat for migratory birds and other fish and wildlife, including species that are listed, or are candidates to be listed, under the Endangered Species Act (16 U.S.C. 1531).

Wetlands conservation projects include the obtaining of a real property interest in lands or waters, including water rights; the restoration, management or enhancement of habitat; and training and development for conservation management in Mexico. Funding may be provided for assistance for wetlands conservation projects in Canada or Mexico.

The Cooperative Endangered Species Conservation Fund provides grants to States and U.S. territories for species and habitat conservation actions on non-federal lands, including habitat acquisition, conservation planning, habitat restoration, status surveys, captive propagation and reintroduction, research, and education for species that are listed or are candidates for listing, as threatened or endangered. These activities support recovery efforts and Habitat Conservation Plans in partnership with local governments and other interested parties to protect species. Appropriations to this account are financed by the Land and Water Conservation Fund and the Cooperative Endangered Species Conservation Fund. The latter is an unavailable receipt account that receives a transfer from the General Fund of the U.S. Treasury equal to five percent of receipts deposited to the Federal Aid in Wildlife and Sport Fish Restoration accounts plus Lacey Act receipts over $500,000. Funds made available for grants from the two accounts are subject to annual appropriations authorized by Congress.

The Refuge Revenue Sharing Act (16 U.S.C. 715s) authorizes the Service to make payments to counties in which Fish and Wildlife Service fee lands are located from the revenues resulting from the sale of products from Service lands, less expenses for producing the revenue and activities related to revenue sharing. While direct appropriations have previously been used to supplement revenues, the 2017 Budget eliminates discretionary funding as formulas contained in the Act do not account for the economic benefits which refuges provide.

The Federal Lands Recreation Enhancement Act (FLREA) was passed on December 8, 2004, as part of the Omnibus Appropriations bill for 2005. Approximately 164 Fish and Wildlife Service sites collect entrance fees and other receipts. All receipts are deposited into a recreation fee account of which at least 80 percent is returned to the collecting site.

The recreation fee program demonstrates the feasibility of user generated cost recovery for the operation and maintenance of recreation areas, visitor services improvements, and habitat enhancement projects on Federal lands. Fees are used primarily at the site to improve visitor access, enhance public safety and security, address maintenance needs, enhance resource protection, and cover the costs of collection. Recreation fees are often used at Service sites to fund student interns and for various youth programs focusing on hunting, fishing, wildlife observation, wildlife photography, environmental education, and environmental interpretation. The 2017 Budget proposes legislation to permanently authorize the recreational fee programs of the Departments of the Interior and Agriculture under FLREA.

The Federal Aid in Wildlife Restoration Act (16 U.S.C. 669 et seq.), also known as the Pittman-Robertson Wildlife Restoration Act, created a program to fund the selection, restoration, rehabilitation and improvement of wildlife habitat, hunter education and safety, and wildlife management research. Under the program, States, Puerto Rico, Guam, the Virgin Islands, American Samoa, and the Northern Mariana Islands are allocated funds from an excise tax on sporting arms and ammunition, handguns, and a tax on certain archery equipment. States are reimbursed up to 75 percent of the cost of approved wildlife and hunter education projects.

The Wildlife and Sport Fish Restoration Programs Improvement Act of 2000 (P.L. 106–408) amends the Pittman-Robertson Wildlife Restoration Act and authorizes a Multistate Conservation Grant Program, as well as the Firearm and Bow Hunter Education and Safety Program that provides grants to the States.

The Energy Policy Act of 2005 (P.L. 109–58) amends section 31 of the Outer Continental Shelf (OCS) Lands Act (43 U.S.C. 1356 et seq.) to require that for each of the fiscal years 2007 through 2010, $250,000,000 in OCS revenues be distributed annually to coastal States that have submitted approved coastal impact assistance plans. The formula for distribution is based on the amount of qualified OCS revenues generated off the coastline of each producing State. In addition, 35 percent of each State's allocable share is to be distributed to coastal political subdivisions based on population, coastline, and distance to applicable OCS leases. In FY 2011, this program was transferred from the Bureau of Ocean Energy Management, Regulation, and Enforcement to the Fish and Wildlife Service.

The Federal Aid in Sport Fish Restoration Act, also known as the Dingell-Johnson Sport Fish Restoration Act (16 U.S.C. 777 et seq.), created a fishery resources, conservation, and restoration program funded by excise taxes on fishing equipment and certain other sport fish related products and fuel.

The Wildlife and Sport Fish Restoration Programs Improvement Act of 2000 (P.L. 106–408) amends the Dingell-Johnson Sport Fish Restoration Act and authorizes a Multistate Conservation Grant Program. It also provides funding for several fisheries commissions and the Sport Fishing and Boating Partnership Council.

The Sport Fish Restoration Act specifies that the net deposits made into the Sport Fish Restoration and Boating Safety Trust Fund, minus the distributions for administrative expenses for the Fish and Wildlife Service and the United States Coast Guard, special commissions, and the Boating Council, be distributed to support the following:

The Coastal Wetlands Planning, Protection, and Restoration Act (16 U.S.C. 3951 et seq.).—18.673 percent of net deposits, or amounts collected in small engine fuels excise taxes as provided by 26 U.S.C. 9504(b), whichever is greater, are to be made available and distributed as follows: 70 percent to the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers for priority project and conservation planning activities in Louisiana; 15 percent to the Fish and Wildlife Service for coastal wetlands conservation grants; and 15 percent to the Fish and Wildlife Service for wetlands conservation projects per the North American Wetlands Conservation Act (16 U.S.C. 4407).

Boating Safety Programs.—17.315 percent of net deposits are to be made available to the United States Coast Guard for State recreational boating safety programs.

Boating Infrastructure Improvement.—4 percent of net deposits are to be made available to the Secretary of the Interior to make grants to 1) States, as determined through a competitive award process, for the development and maintenance of facilities for transient non-trailerable recreational vessels 26 feet or longer or 2) States, Commonwealths, the District of Columbia and Territories, as determined through a competitive award process, to carry out projects for the construction, renovation, operation, and maintenance of pumpout stations and waste reception facilities, as well as for educational programs on proper disposal of sewage. Not more than 75 percent of the 4 percent shall be available for grants under either of the award processes referenced in this paragraph.

National Outreach and Communications Programs.—2 percent of net deposits are to be made available to the Secretary of the Interior to develop national and State outreach plans to promote safe fishing and boating opportunities and the conservation of aquatic resources.

Grants to States.—58.012 percent of net deposits are provided to the States, Puerto Rico, Guam, the Virgin Islands, American Samoa, the Northern Mariana Islands, and the District of Columbia for up to 75 percent of the cost of approved projects including: research into fisheries problems, surveys and inventories of fish populations, acquisition and improvement of fish habitat, and provision of access for public use and $3 million is reserved for Multistate Conservation Activities.

The National Park Service administers 409 areas and over 84.6 million acres of land in 50 States, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, the U.S. Virgin Islands, Guam, Samoa, and the Northern Marianas. In FY 2014, park visits totaled 284 million. This annual appropriation funds the operation of areas and facilities administered under the National Park System through two budget activities. Funds within this appropriation are available for one year, with the exception of repair and rehabilitation funds and funds for the cooperative restoration of the Everglades, which are both available for two years. In addition, this account contains reimbursable activity such as recovery of costs associated with special use permits.

The first activity, Park Management, covers the management and operation of park areas, and is divided into five subactivities that represent functional areas:

Resource stewardship.—Encompasses resource management operations that provide for the protection and preservation of unique natural, cultural, and historical features of units of the National Park System.

Visitor services.—Includes operations that provide orientation, educational, and interpretive programs to enhance the visitor's park experience. It also provides for the efficient management of commercial services for the benefit of visitors and the protection of resources.

Park protection.—Provides for the protection of park resources, visitors, and staff. Funding supports law enforcement operations, including the United States Park Police, that reduce vandalism and other destruction of park resources, safety, and public health operations.

Facility operations and maintenance.—Encompasses the maintenance and protection of buildings, other facilities, lands , and other government investments.

Park support.—Covers the management, supervision, and administrative operations for park areas and partnerships.

The second activity, External Administrative Costs, funds costs which are largely determined by organizations outside the National Park Service and for which funding requirements are less flexible. The requirements for these costs are mandated in accordance with applicable laws. To promote the efficient performance of the National Park Service, these costs are most effectively managed on a centralized basis.

The Construction appropriation provides support to several National Park Service mission goals, including preserving park resources, providing for visitor enjoyment, and improving organizational effectiveness. In addition, this account contains activity related to reimbursable agreements.

The Construction appropriation is composed of five budget activities:

Line item construction.—This activity provides for the construction, rehabilitation, and replacement of facilities needed to accomplish the management objectives approved for each park.

Special programs.—This activity includes Emergency and Unscheduled Projects, Employee Housing, Dam Safety, and Equipment Replacement.

Construction planning.—This activity includes the project planning function to prepare working drawings, specification documents, and contracts needed to construct or rehabilitate National Park Service facilities.

Construction program management and operations.—This activity provides centralized design and engineering management services, as well as contracting services for park construction projects.

Management planning.—Under this activity, funding is used to prepare and update Unit Management Plans. The plans guide National Park Service actions for the protection, use, development, and management of each park unit. Funding also is used to conduct studies of alternatives for the protection of areas that may have potential for addition to the National Park System and for environmental impact planning and compliance.

The Land Acquisition and State Assistance appropriation uses funding derived from the Land and Water Conservation Fund to support National Park Service land acquisition activities and provide grants to States for the purchase and development of land for outdoor recreation activities. The appropriation is composed of the following budget activities:

Federal land acquisition administration.—Provides for the administration of land acquisitions throughout the National Park System, ensuring compliance with existing guidelines and laws.

Federal land acquisition.—Provides for the acquisition of land and interests in land to preserve and protect, for public use and enjoyment, the historic, scenic, natural, and recreational values of congressionally authorized areas within the National Park System. Funds are also used for matching grants for the purchase of Civil War Battlefield lands by non-Federal entities. The 2017 Federal Land Acquisition program builds on efforts started in 2011 to strategically invest in interagency landscape-scale conservation projects while continuing to meet agency-specific programmatic needs. The Department of the Interior and the U.S. Forest Service collaborated extensively to develop a process to more effectively coordinate land acquisitions with government and local community partners to achieve the highest priority shared conservation goals.

State conservation grants administration.—Provides for the administration of matching grants to States and through States to local governments, for the acquisition and development of public outdoor recreation areas and facilities.

State conservation grants.—This activity provides matching grants to States and local units of government for the acquisition and development of land and facilities that will provide the public access to new opportunities to engage in outdoor recreation. The account includes both traditional formula and competitive grant programs for States.

Outer Continental Shelf Oil Lease Revenues.—The Gulf of Mexico Energy Security Act of 2006 (P.L. 109–432) allows a portion of the revenue collected from oil and gas leasing activities in qualified areas just becoming available for leasing in the Outer Continental Shelf (OCS) to be deposited to the Land and Water Conservation Fund and distributed to States in accordance with the Land and Water Conservation Act of 1965. The National Park Service portion of the revenue is 12.5 percent of total qualified OCS revenues. These new OCS receipts became available for expenditure as mandatory funding beginning in 2009. The Omnibus Appropriations Act, 2009 (P.L. 111–8) permits the use of up to three percent of the amounts authorized to be disbursed for costs of administration.

Recreation Fee Program.—The National Park Service and other land management agencies operate a fee program that allows parks and other units to collect admission and user fees in accordance with the Federal Lands Recreation Enhancement Act (FLREA). FLREA was passed on December 8, 2004, as part of the Omnibus Appropriations Act, 2005, which authorized this program through 2014. The Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2016, extended FLREA through fiscal year 2017. The Administration proposes to permanently reauthorize the Department of the Interior's and the Department of Agriculture's recreation fee programs in fiscal year 2017. Net proceeds are used for high-priority visitor service and facility maintenance projects throughout the National Park System. Up to 80 percent may be retained for use by the collecting park and the remainder retained for discretionary, Servicewide use by the National Park Service Director. Proceeds from the sale of the America the Beautiful passes, which allow access to all public lands that charge fees for a year, are distributed among the Federal land management agencies which offer them for sale, including the National Park Service, the Bureau of Land Management, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, the Bureau of Reclamation and the U.S. Forest Service, as determined by the Secretaries of the Department of the Interior and the Department of Agriculture in accordance with P.L. 108–447.

Deed-restricted parks fee program.—Park units where admission fees may not be collected by reason of deed restrictions retain any other recreation fees collected and use them for certain park operation purposes in accordance with P.L. 105–327. This law applies to Great Smoky Mountains National Park, Lincoln Home National Historic Site, and Abraham Lincoln Birthplace National Historic Site.

Transportation systems fund.—Fees charged for public use of transportation services at parks are retained and used by each collecting park for costs associated with the transportation systems in accordance with section 501 of P.L. 105–391.

Payment for tax losses on land acquired for Grand Teton National Park.—Revenues received from fees collected from visitors are used to compensate the State of Wyoming for tax losses on Grand Teton National Park lands (16 U.S.C. 406d-3).

The Historic Preservation Fund appropriation includes grant programs to facilitate the preservation of the Nation's historic and cultural resources. This appropriation provides grants-in-aid to States, Territories, and Indian Tribes. Grants-in-aid to States and local governments require a 40 percent funding match; grants to Tribes do not require matching funds. In addition to the traditional grants-in-aid described above, the account includes competitive grant programs. This includes grants for the survey and nomination of properties associated with communities currently underrepresented in the National Register and as National Historic Landmarks, grants to preserve the sites and stories of the Civil Rights Movement, and grants to repair and interpret historic structures on the campuses of Historically Black Colleges and Universities. The President's budget includes a legislative proposal to permanently extend the authority to annually deposit $150 million in receipts from offshore oil and gas revenues into the Historic Preservation Fund.

Park concessions franchise fees.—Franchise fees for concessioner activities in the National Park System are deposited in this account and used for certain park operations activities in accordance with section 407 of P.L. 105–391. By law, 20 percent of franchise fees collected are used to support activities throughout the National Park System and 80 percent are retained and used by each collecting park unit for visitor services and for purposes of funding high-priority and urgently necessary resource management programs and operations.

Concessions improvement accounts.—National Park Service agreements with private concessioners providing visitor services within national parks can require concessioners to deposit a portion of gross receipts or a fixed sum of money in a separate bank account. A concessioner may expend funds from such an account with the approval of the park superintendent for improvements to facilities that directly support concession visitor services but would not otherwise be funded through the appropriations process. Concessioners do not accrue possessory interests from improvements funded through these accounts.

Park buildings lease and maintenance fund.—Rental payments for leases to use buildings and associated property in the National Park System are deposited in this account and used for infrastructure needs at park units in accordance with section 802 of P.L. 105–391.

Operation and maintenance of quarters.—Revenues from the rental of Government-owned quarters to park employees are deposited in this account and used to operate and maintain the quarters.

Delaware Water Gap, Route 209 operations.—Fees collected for use of Route 209 within the Delaware Water Gap National Recreation Area by commercial vehicles are used for management, operation, and maintenance of the route within the park as authorized by P.L. 98–63 (97 Stat. 329), section 117 of P.L. 98–151 (97 Stat. 977) as amended by P.L. 99–88 (99 Stat. 343), and section 702 of Division I of P.L. 104–333 (110 Stat. 4185). The authority expired on September 30, 2015. Minimal balances remain.

Glacier Bay National Park resource protection.—Of the revenues received from fees paid by tour boat operators or other permittees for entering Glacier Bay National Park, 60 percent are used for certain activities to protect resources of the Park from harm by permittees in accordance with section 703 of Division I of P.L. 104–333 (110 Stat. 4185).

Filming and photography special use fees.—The National Park Service is authorized to retain fee receipts that are collected from issuing permits to use park lands and facilities for commercial filming, still photography, and similar activities. Activities authorized for funding include acquisition of emergency response equipment to prevent harm to aquatic park resources from permittees and studies to quantify the impact of permittees' activities on wildlife and other natural resources of the park.

The Operation of Indian Programs appropriation consists of a wide range of services and benefits provided primarily to Federally-recognized Indian Tribes, Alaskan Native groups, and individual American Indians and Alaska Natives, to fulfill Federal trust and treaty responsibilities and support tribal self-determination and nation building.

This account covers expenses associated with the following activities:

Tribal Government.—This activity promotes the sovereignty of Federally-recognized Tribes by supporting and assisting them in the development and maintenance of strong and stable governments capable of administering quality programs and developing economies. This activity also provides for the maintenance of Bureau of Indian Affairs (BIA) roads and bridges.

Human services.—This activity provides funding for social services, housing improvement, welfare assistance, and Indian child welfare. The objective of this activity is to improve the quality of life for individual Indians who live on or near Indian reservations and to protect children, the elderly, and disabled from abuse and neglect.

Trust: Natural resources management.—This activity provides for the management, development, protection, and resilience of Indian trust land and natural resource assets and related treaty rights. Natural resource programs in Indian Country include agriculture, forestry, water, fish, wildlife, and parks.

Trust: Real estate.—This activity promotes cooperative efforts with landowners for the optimal utilization, development, and enhancement of trust and restricted Federal Indian-owned lands. The activity includes general real estate services, probate, land title and records, environmental compliance, and other trust services and rights protection.

Education.—This activity supports Bureau of Indian Education (BIE) funded elementary and secondary school operations, other education programs for elementary-aged Indian children, tribal post-secondary schools, scholarships and adult education programs, education program management, and operations and facilities maintenance. The BIE-funded schools include 169 elementary and secondary BIE- and tribally-run schools, 14 dormitories, two post-secondary schools, and operating grants to eligible tribal colleges and universities.

Public safety and justice.—This activity funds law enforcement activities in Indian Country in over 25 States. Programs under this activity include investigative, police, and detention services; tribal courts; fire protection; and facilities maintenance.

Community and economic development.—This activity promotes the economic vitality of American Indians and Alaska Natives through Job Placement and Training, Economic Development, and Community Development. This activity also provides assistance for renewable and conventional energy and hard mineral development for the economic benefit of the Tribes and individual Indian allottees.

Executive direction and administrative services.—This activity supports the management of BIA's and BIE's finance, budget, acquisition, and property functions, as well as information technology resources, personnel services, facilities management, payment of GSA and direct rentals, and intra-governmental payments. Significant portions of Indian Affairs activities are executed under contracts or compacts with Federally-recognized Tribes to run tribal and Federal programs. Funding also supports BIA or BIE oversight and technical assistance for these activities in central and regional offices.

This appropriation funds a program to consolidate fractional interests in Indian lands and assist land owners with estate planning. Funds are used to purchase small interests in parcels of lands from willing individual Indian landowners and convey those interests to the tribe on whose reservation the land is located. Consolidation of these interests is expected to reduce the Government's costs for managing Indian lands and promote economic opportunity on these lands. This program is authorized under the Indian Land Consolidation Act Amendments of 2000 (P.L. 106–462), the American Indian Probate Reform Act of 2004 (P.L. 108–374), and other authorities. No funding is requested in 2017 in this account. Implementation of the Individual Indian Money Account Litigation Settlement (P.L. 111–291, Title I) to address fractionation is in a separate account in the Office of the Secretary.

ADMINISTRATIVE PROVISIONS

Administrative provisions

The Bureau of Indian Affairs may carry out the operation of Indian programs by direct expenditure, contracts, cooperative agreements, compacts, and grants, either directly or in cooperation with States and other organizations.

Notwithstanding 25 U.S.C. 15, the Bureau of Indian Affairs may contract for services in support of the management, operation, and maintenance of the Power Division of the San Carlos Irrigation Project.

Notwithstanding any other provision of law, no funds available to the Bureau of Indian Affairs for central office oversight and Executive Direction and Administrative Services (except executive direction and administrative services funding for Tribal Priority Allocations, regional offices, and facilities operations and maintenance) shall be available for contracts, grants, compacts, or cooperative agreements with the Bureau of Indian Affairs under the provisions of the Indian Self-Determination Act or the Tribal Self-Governance Act of 1994 (Public Law 103–413).

In the event any tribe returns appropriations made available by this Act to the Bureau of Indian Affairs, this action shall not diminish the Federal Government's trust responsibility to that tribe, or the government-to-government relationship between the United States and that tribe, or that tribe's ability to access future appropriations.

Notwithstanding any other provision of law, no funds available to the Bureau of Indian Education, other than the amounts provided herein for assistance to public schools under 25 U.S.C. 452 et seq., shall be available to support the operation of any elementary or secondary school in the State of Alaska.

No funds available to the Bureau of Indian Education shall be used to support expanded grades for any school or dormitory beyond the grade structure in place or approved by the Secretary of the Interior at each school in the Bureau of Indian Education school system as of October 1, 1995, except that the Secretary of the Interior may waive this prohibition to support expansion of up to one additional grade when the Secretary determines such waiver is needed to support accomplishment of the mission of the Bureau of Indian Education. Appropriations made available in this or any prior Act for schools funded by the Bureau shall be available, in accordance with the Bureau's funding formula, only to the schools in the Bureau school system as of September 1, 1996, and to any school or school program that was reinstated in fiscal year 2012. Funds made available under this Act may not be used to establish a charter school at a Bureau-funded school (as that term is defined in section 1141 of the Education Amendments of 1978 (25 U.S.C. 2021)), except that a charter school that is in existence on the date of the enactment of this Act and that has operated at a Bureau-funded school before September 1, 1999, may continue to operate during that period, but only if the charter school pays to the Bureau a pro rata share of funds to reimburse the Bureau for the use of the real and personal property (including buses and vans), the funds of the charter school are kept separate and apart from Bureau funds, and the Bureau does not assume any obligation for charter school programs of the State in which the school is located if the charter school loses such funding. Employees of Bureau-funded schools sharing a campus with a charter school and performing functions related to the charter school's operation and employees of a charter school shall not be treated as Federal employees for purposes of chapter 171 of title 28, United States Code.

Notwithstanding any other provision of law, including section 113 of title I of appendix C of Public Law 106–113, if in fiscal year 2003 or 2004 a grantee received indirect and administrative costs pursuant to a distribution formula based on section 5(f) of Public Law 101–301, the Secretary shall continue to distribute indirect and administrative cost funds to such grantee using the section 5(f) distribution formula.

Funds available under this Act may not be used to establish satellite locations of schools in the Bureau school system as of September 1, 1996, except that the Secretary may waive this prohibition in order for an Indian tribe to provide language and cultural immersion educational programs for non-public schools located within the jurisdictional area of the tribal government which exclusively serve tribal members, do not include grades beyond those currently served at the existing Bureau-funded school, provide an educational environment with educator presence and academic facilities comparable to the Bureau-funded school, comply with all applicable Tribal, Federal, or State health and safety standards, and the Americans with Disabilities Act, and demonstrate the benefits of establishing operations at a satellite location in lieu of incurring extraordinary costs, such as for transportation or other impacts to students such as those caused by busing students extended distances: Provided, That no funds available under this Act may be used to fund operations, maintenance, rehabilitation, construction or other facilities-related costs for such assets that are not owned by the Bureau: Provided further, That the term "satellite school" means a school location physically separated from the existing Bureau school by more than 50 miles but that forms part of the existing school in all other respects.

This appropriation supports the functions of the Office of the Secretary of the Interior, including executive-level leadership, policy, guidance, and coordination of the responsibilities carried out by its bureaus and offices. In addition, the appropriation supports programmatic functions carried out by the Office of the Secretary including mineral revenue collections, the Take Pride in America program, the Department's quasi-judicial and appellate responsibilities, and the Office of Valuation Services. The appropriation also provides for workers and unemployment compensation payments for former Bureau of Mines employees.

Office of Natural Resources Revenue (ONRR).—The Office of Natural Resources Revenue's mission is to collect, disburse, and verify Federal and Indian energy and other natural resources revenues on behalf of all Americans. Revenues collected by ONRR represent a significant source of non-tax revenue to the Federal Government. The ONRR disburses mineral revenues to States, the Office of the Special Trustee for American Indians, other Federal agencies, and the General Fund of the United States Treasury. Through ONRR, the Administration will continue to implement mineral revenue collection and reporting reforms, including the implementation of the Extractive Industries Transparency Initiative, and the implementation of recommendations from the Government Accountability Office, the Department's Inspector General, and others.

Coastal Climate Resilience Fund.—The Budget proposes a 10-year, $2 billion Coastal Climate Resilience program, which will provide resources for at-risk coastal States, local governments, and their communities to prepare for and adapt to climate change. A portion of the program funds would be set aside to cover the unique circumstances some communities face, such as relocation planning expenses for acutely threatened coastal communities.

Under the Mineral Leasing Act, States receive fifty-percent of Federal revenues generated from mineral production occurring on Federal lands within that State's boundaries. Alaska is the exception, receiving a 90 percent share of receipts from Federal mineral leasing in that State (exclusive of the National Petroleum Reserve-Alaska). To partially cover the costs of administering the Federal mineral leasing program, the Bipartisan Budget Act permanently amended the Mineral Leasing Act (MLA) to deduct two percent from the required payments to States under the Act. These payments are administered by the Office of Natural Resources Revenue within the Department of the Interior's Office of the Secretary.

Flood control payments to States are shared according to the Flood Control Act of 1936 (33 U.S.C. 701 et seq.) which provides that 75 percent of revenue collected be shared with the State in which it was collected. These funds are to be expended as the State legislature may prescribe for the benefit of the public schools and roads in the county from which the revenue was collected, or for defraying other expenses of county government. These expenses include public obligations of levee and drainage districts for flood control and drainage improvements. Payments are administered by the Office of Natural Resources Revenue.

As of May 23, 1908 (16 U.S.C. 499), 25 percent of the revenues collected from onshore mineral leasing and production on national forest lands have been paid to the State in which the national forest resides. A State's payment is based on national forest acreage. Where a national forest is situated in several States, an individual State payment is proportionate to its area within that particular national forest. These payments are now administered by the Office of Natural Resources Revenue within the Department of the Interior's Office of the Secretary.

The Gulf of Mexico Energy Security Act of 2006 (GOMESA, P.L. 109–432) provides that 37.5 percent of Outer Continental Shelf revenues from certain leases be distributed to four coastal States (Alabama, Louisiana, Mississippi, and Texas) and their local governments based on a complex allocation formula. These payments are administered by the Office of Natural Resources Revenue within the Department of the Interior's Office of the Secretary.

States Share from Certain Gulf of Mexico Leases

(Legislative proposal, subject to PAYGO)

Beginning in FY 2018, the Budget proposes to repeal payments to four coastal States (Alabama, Louisiana, Mississippi, and Texas) and their local governments under the Gulf of Mexico Energy Security Act of 2006 (GOMESA, P.L. 109–432). The Budget proposes to redirect roughly half of the savings that result from repealing GOMESA revenue sharing payments to a new $2 billion Coastal Climate Resilience program, which will provide resources over 10 years for at-risk coastal States, local governments, and their communities to prepare for and adapt to climate change. The remaining GOMESA repeal savings will be directed to the Treasury.

Title IV of the Department of the Interior and Related Agencies Appropriation Act, 1998 (P.L. 105–83) established the Environmental Improvement and Restoration Fund account. As required by law, 50 percent of the principal and 50 percent of the interest from the Alaska Escrow account are deposited into the Environmental Improvement and Restoration Fund. The law requires that the corpus of the Fund be invested. Twenty percent of the interest earned by the Fund is permanently appropriated to the Department of Commerce, and the unappropriated balance of interest remains in the fund. At this time, no budget authority is requested.

The Individual Indian Money Account Litigation Settlement (P.L. 111–291) established this fund to provide Indian land owners with an additional incentive to sell their fractionated interests, given that the market value associated with highly fractionated interests will be quite low in many cases. Not more than $60 million may be transferred from the Trust Land Consolidation Fund to this fund for higher education scholarships for American Indians and Alaska Natives to be administered as described in the settlement agreement.

The Individual Indian Money Account Litigation Settlement (P.L. 111–291) established a new trust land consolidation fund for the buy-back and consolidation of fractionated interests in parcels of land from individual Indian landowners. The fund also covers administrative costs to undertake the process of acquiring fractionated interests and associated trust reform activities not to exceed 15 percent of the fund. The acquisition of fractionated interests is authorized under the Indian Land Consolidation Act Amendments of 2000 (P.L. 106–462), and the American Indian Probate Reform Act of 2004 (P.L. 108–374). The Settlement provides additional authority for the acquisition of interests held by persons who cannot be located after engaging in extensive efforts to notify them and locate them for a five-year period. The Settlement was finalized on November 24, 2012 and in accordance with the terms of the legislation, these funds remain available for ten years from the date of the Settlement.

(Department of the Interior, Environment, and Related Agencies Appropriations Act, 2016.)

The Office of the Secretary provides for the administration of the Payments in Lieu of Taxes program, which makes payments to counties and other units of local government for lands within their boundaries that are administered by the Bureau of Land Management, U.S. Forest Service, the National Park Service, the Fish and Wildlife Service, and certain other agencies.

Insular Affairs

The Secretary of the Interior is charged with the responsibility of promoting the economic and political development of those insular areas which are under U.S. jurisdiction and within the responsibility of the Department of the Interior. The Secretary originates and implements Federal policy for the U.S. territories; guides and coordinates certain operating programs and construction projects; provides information services and technical assistance; coordinates certain Federal programs and services provided to the freely associated states, and participates in foreign policy and defense matters concerning the U.S. territories and the freely associated states.

Trust Territory of the Pacific Islands

Until October 1, 1994, the United States exercised jurisdiction over the Trust Territory of the Pacific Islands according to the terms of the 1947 Trusteeship Agreement between the United States and the Security Council of the United Nations. These responsibilities were carried out by the Department of the Interior.

The Department of the Interior is seeking no additional appropriations for the Trust Territory of the Pacific Islands. Compacts of Free Association have been implemented with the Federated States of Micronesia, the Republic of the Marshall Islands, and the Republic of Palau.

Remaining funds in the Trust Territory of the Pacific Islands account are being used to improve basic economic information and financial management capabilities in the insular areas; address compact impact related issues; and also for brown tree snake control.

Compact of free association

For grants and necessary expenses, $3,318,000, to remain available until expended, as provided for in sections 221(a)(2) and 233 of the Compact of Free Association for the Republic of Palau; and section 221(a)(2) of the Compacts of Free Association for the Government of the Republic of the Marshall Islands and the Federated States of Micronesia, as authorized by Public Law 99–658 and Public Law 108–188.

The peoples of the Republic of the Marshall Islands, the Federated States of Micronesia and the Republic of Palau approved Compacts of Free Association negotiated by the United States and their governments. The Compact of Free Association Act of 1985 (P.L. 99–239) constituted the necessary authorizing legislation to make annual payments to the Republic of the Marshall Islands and the Federated States of Micronesia. Payments began in 1987 and continued through 2003 when the original economic assistance package expired. The Compact of Free Association Amendments Act of 2003, P.L. 108–188, continues financial assistance to the Federated States of Micronesia and the Republic of the Marshall Islands through 2023. The Compact of Free Association for the Republic of Palau was enacted on November 14, 1986 as P.L. 99–658, and was implemented on October 1, 1994. While the financial assistance provisions under the Compact of Free Association with the Republic of Palau were set to expire on September 30, 2009, subsequent appropriations in 2010 through 2016 have continued financial assistance to Palau at 2009 levels.

The mission of the Office of Inspector General is to promote excellence, accountability and integrity in the programs, operations and management of the Department of the Interior. The Office focuses on providing the Secretary and Congress timely and relevant information regarding the Department's most serious management and program challenges, with a special concentration on high-risk areas vulnerable to fraud, waste, and mismanagement. The Office is responsible for independently and objectively identifying risks and vulnerabilities that directly impact, or could impact, the Department's ability to accomplish its mission. The Office is required to keep the Secretary and Congress fully and currently informed about problems and deficiencies relating to the administration of departmental programs and operations. Effective implementation of this mandate addresses the public's demand for greater accountability and integrity in the administration of government programs and operations and the demand for programs that work better, cost less, and get the results Americans care about most.

P.L. 94–565 (31 U.S.C. 6901–07), as amended, authorizes payments in lieu of taxes ("PILT payments") to counties and other units of local government for lands within their boundaries administered by the Bureau of Land Management, the U.S. Forest Service, the National Park Service, the Fish and Wildlife Service, and certain other agencies. The PILT payment formula is based on a number of factors, including the amount of Federal land within an eligible unit of local government, its population, and certain other Federal payments the local government may receive.

Since the inception of the PILT program in 1977 through FY 2007, PILT funding was subject to annual appropriations. The Emergency Economic Stabilization Act of 2008 provided a five-year (FYs 2008–2012) mandatory funding stream for PILT at the full authorization levels calculated using the existing PILT formula. The Moving Ahead for Progress in the 21st Century Act (P.L. 112–141) extended the mandatory authorization through 2013, and the Agricultural Act of 2014 (P.L. 113–79) extended the mandatory authorization through 2014. The Carl Levin and Howard P. "Buck" McKeon National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2015 and the Consolidated and Further Continuing Appropriations Act (P.L. 113–235) extended PILT payment authority through 2015 with a combination of discretionary and mandatory funds. The Consolidated Appropriations Act of 2016 (P.L. 114–113) provides discretionary PILT funding under the Office of the Secretary, Departmental Operations account to extend payment authority through 2016.

Under the Natural Resource Damage Assessment and Restoration Fund (Restoration Fund), natural resource damage assessments are performed in order to provide the basis for claims against responsible parties for the restoration of injured natural resources. Funds are appropriated to conduct damage assessments, provide restoration support, prepare for response to potential inland oil spills, and for program management. In addition, funds will be received for the restoration of damaged resources and other activities and for natural resource damage assessments from responsible parties through cooperative assessment agreements, negotiated settlements, or other legal actions by the Department of the Interior. Responsible parties may also provide in-kind services to restore injured natural resources.

Restoration activities include: 1) the replacement and enhancement of affected resources; 2) acquisition of equivalent resources and services; and, 3) long-term environmental monitoring and research programs directed to the prevention, containment, and amelioration of hazardous substances and oil spill sites.

The Restoration Fund operates as a Department-wide program, incorporating the interdisciplinary expertise of its various bureaus and offices. Natural resource damage assessments and the restoration of injured natural resources are authorized by the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act, as amended (42 U.S.C. 9601 et seq.), Federal Water Pollution Control Act, as amended (33 U.S.C. 1251 et seq.), the Oil Pollution Act of 1990 (33 U.S.C. 2701 et seq.), and the Act of July 27, 1990 (16 U.S.C. 19jj et seq.). Since 1992, amounts received by the United States from responsible parties for restoration or reimbursement in settlement of natural resource damages may be deposited in the Fund and shall accrue interest.

Exxon Valdez Restoration Program

The Budget reflects the receipts, transfers, and mandatory spending by the Department of the Interior associated with the civil and criminal settlements resulting from the 1989 Exxon Valdez oil spill in the Prince William Sound and surrounding areas. Funding from the settlements, including interest, is provided to Federal and State of Alaska natural resource trustee agencies to restore the natural resources and services damaged by the spill. The Exxon Valdez Oil Spill Trustee Council consists of three State and three Federal trustees who oversee restoration of the injured ecosystem through the use of civil settlement funds. The criminal settlement funds are managed separately by the Federal and Alaska State governments, but are coordinated with the Council.

The 2017 Budget proposes to amend the Balanced Budget and Emergency Deficit Control Act of 1985, as amended, to establish a new budget framework for the Wildland Fire Management program that is designed to provide stable funding for fire suppression, while minimizing the adverse impacts of fire transfers on the budgets of other fire and non-fire programs, as well as reduce fire risk, manage landscapes more comprehensively, and increase the resiliency of public lands and the communities that border them. In this proposed new budget framework, a portion of the funding needed for suppression response is funded within the discretionary spending limits and a portion is funded in an adjustment to those limits. The new framework does not increase overall discretionary spending, as it would reduce the ceiling for the existing disaster relief cap adjustment by an equivalent amount as is provided for wildfire suppression operations. More details are provided in the Budget Process chapter in the Analytical Perspectives volume.

Preparedness.—Funds the non-emergency and predictable aspects of the Department's wildland fire program, including the initial attack suppression action on wildfires. Preparedness includes readiness, operational planning, oversight, procurement, training, supervision, and deployment of wildland fire suppression personnel and equipment prior to wildland fire occurrence, and rural fire readiness, in which assistance is provided to local cooperators to enhance their capacity to protect remote communities and natural resources. It also includes activities related to program monitoring and evaluation, and integration of fire into land-use planning.

Suppression Operations.—Funds the emergency and unpredictable aspects of the Department's wildland fire management program. Suppression operations include the total spectrum of management actions taken on wildland fires in a safe, cost-effective manner, considering public benefits and values to be protected consistent with resource objectives and land management plans. Emergency actions taken during and immediately following a wildfire to stabilize the soil and structures to prevent erosion, floods, landslides, and further resource damage are included in this activity. Emergency stabilization actions may be performed within one year of containment of a fire. In FY 2010 through 2016, funding for the ten-year average of inflation-adjusted suppression obligations is split between the FLAME Wildfire Suppression Reserve Fund and this appropriation. The Budget request proposes an adjustment to the discretionary spending limits as a new approach for responsibly budgeting for wildland fire suppression to minimize the risk of fire transfers and provide more stability and certainty of funding to other programs to invest in critical forest and rangeland management needs. The Budget proposes base level funding of 70 percent of the 10-year average of suppression costs to be funded within the discretionary cap. The proposed cap adjustment would fund the remaining identified need for Suppression. The base level of funds ensures that the cap adjustment is only used for the most severe fire activity since it is one percent of the fires that results in 30 percent of the costs. In FY 2017, 70 percent of the 10-year average is $276 million. The amount requested in the cap adjustment equals the difference between the total amount of suppression expenditures projected for the fiscal year, based on the Outyear Forecast developed by the U.S. Forest Service's Southern Research Station, and the 70 percent of the 10-year suppression average that is requested within the discretionary budget caps. For 2017, the request for the budget cap adjustment is $290 million. The DOI and Forest Service wildland fire management programs will continue to strengthen oversight and accountability of suppression spending and use risk management principles to guide decision-making at the strategic, program, and operational levels.

Fire Risk Management.—Is a new program activity proposed in FY 2017. It funds two programs, Fuels Management and Resilient Landscapes, previously included within Other Operations. The Fuels Management program conducts treatments aimed at mitigating risk to communities and their values, including areas in the wildland urban interface. The Resilient Landscapes program will conduct treatments that improve the integrity and resilience of our forests and rangelands. These treatments will be coordinated with and receive support, including bureau matching funds, from resource management programs of the Interior fire bureaus. The Fire Risk Management activity will contribute community adaption to fire and improve the ability to safely and appropriately respond to wildfire. The budgets for the Fire Risk Management activity cover the planning, operational aspects, and monitoring of treatments. Both programs will utilize such treatment methods as prescribed fire, mechanical, chemical, and biological treatments or a combination of methods.

Other Operations.—Funds all other aspects of the wildland fire management program, which includes Fire Facilities Construction and Maintenance, Burned Area Rehabilitation, and Joint Fire Science. The Fire Facilities Construction and Maintenance program funds construction and maintenance of facilities to house firefighters and equipment used in wildland firefighting, fuels management, and resilient landscapes activities. Facilities funded in this activity include crew quarters, warehouses, fire caches, dispatch centers, fire stations, engine storage, and aviation bases. The Burned Area Rehabilitation program begins the restoration process for lands and resources damaged by wildland fires that would not return to fire adapted conditions without intervention. Soil stabilization and the introduction of native and other desirable plant species are employed for up to three years following containment of a fire to return severely-burned areas to appropriate fire regimes and resource conditions. The Joint Fire Science subactivity funds the Department's share of the Joint Fire Science program, an interagency partnership that sponsors and delivers applied research to assist field managers with fuels treatment, post-fire rehabilitation, smoke management and many other related topics.

Amounts in the FLAME Fund include the portion of the ten-year average of suppression obligations, adjusted for inflation, intended to support the most severe, complex, and threatening fires. The Secretary may permit transfers from this account to cover these extreme fire events. The Secretary may also transfer funds in the event that DOI has exhausted its suppression resources due to an active fire season. In 2017, the Budget proposes to eliminate this account and will fund all suppression activities in the Wildland Fire Management account, with a portion of the suppression funds requested within the discretionary budget cap and a portion of the funds requested in a budget cap adjustment.
