The program described below is financed by this appropriation, by fees for services, and by reimbursements from other
agencies. Those agencies are provided with most of their administrative services overseas by the Department of State.
Executive direction and policy formulation.—This activity
identifies resources which provide sound management
through the direction of the Secretary and with the assistance
of staff offices, specialized offices, and functional and regional
bureaus, for policy formulation and in pursuit of regional
and global foreign policy objectives including the hosting of
various international conferences and meetings in the United
States and abroad.
Conduct of diplomatic relations.—Resources of this activity
include: the political and economic reporting and analysis of
interests to the United States; the representation of U.S. diplomatic and national interests to countries abroad; and the
bilateral and multilateral negotiation of our foreign policy
objectives including the hosting of and participation in various
international conferences, meetings and other multilateral activities in the United States and abroad. These resources
also fund the conduct of U.S. diplomatic policy through political and multilateral affairs, economic and social affairs, international budgetary and management affairs, and participation
in and hosting various international conferences.
Conduct of consular relations.—Activities included are overseas and American citizen services, the issuance of passports
to U.S. citizens both here and abroad, and implementing a
coordinated strategy to improve consular systems and processes in support of U.S. border security. Visa services involve
the issuance, denial, and adjudication of immigrant and nonimmigrant visas; refugee processing; and visa fraud detection
and investigation. American citizen services include the issuance of passports and emergency assistance to American citizens abroad. Passport services include the issuance of passports in the United States and U.S. missions abroad and
passport fraud detection and investigation.
Professional development and training.—The professional
development and training activity is a continuous process by
which the Department ensures that its professionals have
the skills, experience, and judgment to fulfill its functions
at all levels. Training programs are designed to provide employees with the specific functional, area, and language skills
needed for the conduct of foreign relations in the Department
and abroad.
Information management.—This activity identifies resources
necessary for the effective and efficient creation, collection,

processing, transmission, dissemination, use, storage, and disposition of information required for the formulation and execution of foreign policy and for the conduct of daily business.
Its requirements are driven by the informational needs of
the President, the Secretary of State, the Department and
its 250 missions, and approximately fifty Government agencies. Components of the information management activity include: telecommunications; classified information handling;
unclassified data and word processing; pouch, mail, and publishing services; administration of an electronic and archival
records management program; document classification and declassification; information security; and provision of information management services, as appropriate, to all branches
of the Government and to the public. In all of these programs,
responsibilities range from policy setting to planning and design, implementation, operation, and maintenance. The Department manages large computer and communications centers to provide administrative, consular, economic, and political information. The computer systems support worldwide
consular applications, financial management systems, management of building programs, and intelligence research systems. The centralized management of these activities is funded in the Department’s salaries and expenses appropriation.
Security.—This activity identifies resources necessary in
meeting security and counter-terrorism responsibilities, both
foreign and domestic. Covered in this activity are: security
operations; engineering services, which relate to the technical
defense of Foreign Service personnel and establishments
against electronic and physical attack; protection of dignitaries abroad; and physical security operations abroad.
Medical.—This activity encompasses medical programs for
the Department of State, the Foreign Service, and 35 other
U.S. Government departments and agencies overseas. Services are provided in Washington as well as at missions worldwide and cover some 60,000 employees and dependents.
Administration and staff activities.—These activities include
normal domestic and overseas administrative services directly
related to Department programs other than those funded in
the Department’s salaries and expenses appropriation. They
include:
—The direction and control of administration and management operations, representing and negotiating U.S. Government administrative matters with foreign officials, and
reviewing and setting resource levels and priorities for
various programs and bureaus financed by this appropriation.
—The budgeting, financial planning, and fiscal operations
for bureaus and offices financed by this appropriation
and most federal agencies resident abroad.
—The management, recruitment, and performance evaluation of Foreign and Civil Service employees and Foreign
Service National staff.
—The contracting and procurement of services and supplies,
maintenance and repair of equipment and physical property, vehicle operation, and shipping and customs services.
—Centralized funding for travel and transportation of effects associated with the assignment, transfer, home
leave, and separation of the Department’s personnel and
dependents.
A new overseas administrative support and cost-sharing
system, the International Cooperative Administrative Support
Services (ICASS) program, will be fully implemented in FY
1998. ICASS will increase agency participation in administrative support decisions, provide user agencies with improved
management information regarding support costs, and provide
for more equitable cost sharing for agencies operating overseas relative to total overseas presence.
The Administration will submit a budget amendment shortly after submission of the President’s FY 1998 budget to effect

transfers of funds that, to date, have been appropriated to
the Department of State to pay the cost of administrative
services abroad for other agencies. Under ICASS, other agencies will be obliged to pay a larger share of these administrative costs. Budget authority transfers to implement ICASS
will net to zero and will not require additional resources
beyond that presented in the President’s FY 1998 budget.

This schedule reflects the changes resulting from the proposal to make immigration, passport and other fees available
to finance State Department operations directly. This proposal
will link receipts generated by State Department activity to
the performance and improvement of Department operations.
The Department’s ongoing Border Security Program is funded
through a fee charged for Machine Readable Visas. In fiscal
year 1998, the Administration proposes to reclassify this existing fee from an offsetting collection to earmarked governmental receipts.
This is one of several proposals in the budget to charge
fees to users directly availing themselves of, or subject to,
a government service, program, or activity, in order to cover
the government’s costs. Legislation will be proposed to authorize the use of such fees, and, upon enactment of the authorization, the appropriations language above would make the
fees available for expenditure. Because the current requirements of the Budget Enforcement Act of 1990 make it difficult
to fund discretionary programs with receipts that are not
authorized in appropriations acts, the Administration is proposing a change in the requirements to facilitate the enactment of proposals such as this one.

Under the direction of the Secretary of State, the overall
mission of the Office of Foreign Buildings Operation is to
ensure that U.S. Diplomatic and Consular Missions abroad

mission include: providing guidance concerning overseas facilities to posts, regional bureaus and other foreign affairs agencies; providing expert facilities and space planning to posts;
overseeing the design, construction and renovation of diplomatic facilities; incorporating security features into overseas
facilities and ensuring the security of facilities during construction or renovation; establishing standards and policies
for overseas housing; in conjunction with posts, developing
maintenance programs for post facilities and keeping inventory of maintenance requirements; ensuring the safety of the
building occupants through the development of fire/life safety
programs; and, providing real property management that establishes priorities for the acquisition and disposal of real
property, determines the best use for proceeds from the sale

of real property, and maintains an inventory of U.S.G. real
property holdings overseas.
The objective of the Asset Management Program is to obtain the best use of diplomatic and consular properties overseas through sale, exchange, or redevelopment. Most often,
this involves the sale of surplus or underutilized properties
and reinvestment of the proceeds in properties that provide
a greater return to the U.S. Government. Balances realized
are slated for long-term capital investment that contains the
growth of U.S. Government leasehold requirements (by acquiring property that reduces the need for leased facilities)
or that addresses a high-priority need for new construction
in lieu of appropriated resources.

The 1998 appropriation provides funds for the United
States’ share of the expenses of those United Nations (UN)
peacekeeping operations for which costs are distributed
among UN members based on a scale of assessments. The
1998 cost estimates are based on a 25% assessment rate.
The purpose of this appropriation is to ensure continued
American leadership in support of United Nations peacekeeping activities that serve U.S. interests in promoting international security, stability and democracy. The $46 million
arrears payment is part of the total $1.021 billion request
to pay all U.S. arrears. The other arrears are sought in CIO
and in an FY 1997 supplemental seeking an advance appropriation of $921 million for FY 1999.
