other attendant benefits to the Nation. Funding is included
for new construction projects consistent with maintaining existing infrastructure, continuing development of the Nation’s
ports and selected environmental and flood damage reduction
projects. The major rehabilitation projects for inland and
coastal waterways will derive one-half of the funding from
the Inland Waterway Trust Fund. Funds to be derived from
the proposed Harbor Services Fund (HSF) will be applied
to cover the Federal share of Corps of Engineers port construction activities.
The Budget proposes a new Corps of Engineers program,
Challenge 21: Riverine Ecosystem Restoration and Flood Hazard Mitigation, to encourage creation of non-structural flood
control projects that protect and restore flood plain ecosystems while reducing flood hazards. This program is part
of the Administration’s Clean Water Action Plan.
Funding is also included for the restoration of the Kissimmee River in Florida and for the Poplar Island Restoration
project in Maryland. The budget also includes continued funding for juvenile fish mitigation in the Columbia River Basin
including funding of passage facilities at six Corps of Engineers hydroelectric dams on the mainstem Columbia and
Snake Rivers and funding to support Corps activities in response to the determination that certain Snake River Salmon
species are threatened and endangered. The Department of
the Interior’s National Park Service will transfer funds to
the Corps of Engineers for work it accomplishes under authority of the Everglades National Park Protection and Expansion
Act. (16 U.S.C. Sect. 410–8). Funding is included for three
ongoing environmental programs: Aquatic Ecosystem Restoration (Section 206), Beneficial Uses of Dredged Material (Section 204), and Everglades and South Florida Ecosystem Restoration (Section 528).
Funding is provided for the Continuing Authorities Program
(projects which do not require specific legislation) which includes flood control (Section 205) projects, emergency
streambank and shoreline protection (Section 14) projects,
beach erosion control (Section 103) projects, mitigation of
shore damages (Section 111) projects, navigation (Section 107)
projects, and snagging and clearing (Section 208) projects.

For expenses necessary for administration of laws pertaining to
regulation of navigable waters and wetlands, ø$106,000,000¿
$117,000,000, to remain available until expended: Provided, That the
Secretary may establish and collect reasonable fees to provide a partial
recovery of the Federal costs incurred in implementing this program,
which shall be credited to this account as offsetting collections and
shall be transferred to the General Fund of the Treasury. (Energy
and Water Development Appropriations Act, 1999.)

This appropriation provides for costs incurred to administer
laws pertaining to regulation of activities affecting U.S. waters, including wetlands, in accordance with the Rivers and
Harbors Act of 1899, the Clean Water Act of 1977, and the
Marine Protection, Research and Sanctuaries Act of 1972.
The requested increase is needed to improve program performance, protect important aquatic resources, broaden partnership with States and local communities through watershed
planning efforts, and expand the opportunity for administrative appeals.
The Corps has not changed the regulatory program fee
structure since 1977. The budget proposes to pursue reasonable changes that would reduce the fees paid by many applicants and increase recovery from commercial applicants. The
amount of funding that this program requires is independent
of any decisions concerning the fee structure. Revenues would
reduce net Federal costs and be credited as offsetting collections, but would not be made available to the regulatory program for its use.

This activity provides for preparedness activities for all natural and technological disasters, flood fighting and rescue operations, and repair of flood control and Federal hurricane
or shore protection works. It also provides for emergency supplies of clean water where the source has been contaminated
and, in drought distressed areas, where adequate supplies
of water are needed for consumption.
No new funding is required for this account in FY 2000.
The balance of available funds in the account is expected
to be sufficient to meet operational requirements.

obligations. It is important to note the proposed user fee

and domestic trade.
The Administration believes that the HSUF should support
the operation and maintenance (O&M) activities of the Corps
of Engineers and the other O&M costs currently recovered
from the existing Harbor Maintenance Trust Fund, and
should also fund the Federal share of Corps of Engineers
port construction activities, such as port deepening projects.
Expanding the uses of fee revenues to include Federal port
construction projects recognizes that the services provided by
the U.S. port system require adequate and continual investment in new construction.
Revenue generated from the HSUF will be deposited into
a new fund, the Harbor Services Fund (HSP). The Administration estimates that the annual average revenue needed
to finance HSF activities during the next five years is approximately $980 million per year. This is approximately the same
total amount as would have been collected under the HMT
prior to the Supreme Court’s declaring the HMT unconstitutional.
In fiscal year 2000, the costs will be covered by transfers
from the Harbor Maintenance Trust Fund to the Harbor Services Fund. Funds collected by the HSUF are projected to
be sufficient to cover O&M and construction costs to be incurred in fiscal year 2001 and thereafter.
For further discussion of the treatment of the HSUF, please
see Chapter 4 in the Analytical Perspectives volume of the
FY 2000 Budget.

The March 31, 1998 decision by the Supreme Court in
U.S. Shoe Corp. vs. The United States, found the Harbor
Maintenance Tax (HMT) unconstitutional as applied to exports. Collection of the ad valorem tax on exports was halted
on April 25, 1998. The HMT has also been the subject of
questions raised by U.S. trading partners. The U.S. is currently engaged in consultations under the World Trade Organization Agreement regarding a claim by the European Union,
Japan, Canada and Norway that the HMT violates the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade.
The Administration believes an alternative mechanism is
needed to replace the HMT as the funding source for maintaining Federal channel and harbor projects. Users of the
network of U.S. ports served by Federal channel and harbor
projects should continue to be responsible for the costs of
ensuring a safe, reliable and efficient port system. The Administration also supports establishing a clear link between
the amount of Federal revenue collected annually under the
replacement fee mechanism and the amount annual Federal
appropriations to ensure a safe and competitive system.
The Administration is proposing that the HMT be repealed
and be replaced by a user fee (called the Harbor Services

The Harbor Maintenance Trust Fund is established in accordance with the Harbor Maintenance Revenue Act of 1986
(Public Law 99–662, Title XIV, as amended). Revenue is derived from receipts from a 0.125 percent ad valorem user
fee imposed upon commercial users of specified U.S. ports;
Saint Lawrence Seaway tolls; and investment interest.
The Harbor Maintenance Revenue Act also authorized expenditures from the Trust Fund to finance up to 100 percent
of Corps of Engineers’ harbor operation and maintenance
(O&M) costs, including O&M costs associated with Great
Lakes navigational projects, and fully finance the operation
and maintenance of the Saint Lawrence Seaway Development
Corporation.
The North American Free Trade Agreement Implementation Act, Sec. 683 (Public Law 103–182), authorized payment
of administrative expenses incurred by the Department of
the Treasury, the Army Corps of Engineers, and the Department of Commerce related to administration of the harbor
maintenance fee, but not to exceed $5,000,000 for any fiscal
year.
A summary judgment issued October 25, 1995, by the
United States Court of International Trade in the case United
States Shoe Corp. v. United States (Court No. 94–11–00668),
found the Harbor Maintenance fee unconstitutional under the
Export Clause of the Constitution (Article I, section 9, clause
5), and enjoined the Customs Service from collecting the fee.
The decision was affirmed by the Supreme Court on March
31, 1998. With the tax on exports no longer collected, revenues have been reduced by approximately 30 percent.
The Administration is proposing a Harbor Services User
Fee to replace the Harbor Maintenance Tax. The legislative
proposal will also establish the Harbor Services Fund into
which collected fees will be deposited. The Harbor Services
Fund will be funded in FY 2000 by transfer from the Harbor
Maintenance Trust Fund.
