This rescission proposal would rescind $12 million in prior year balances originally appropriated to fund acquisition, transportation, and injection of petroleum into the Strategic Petroleum Reserve and for draw down and distribution of the Reserve. These balances are no longer needed because only de minimus oil acquisition, transportation, and injection is occurring. In the event that draw down and distribution of the Reserve is necessary, authority has been provided to the Department of Energy to transfer balances from other departmental accounts. f Department of Housing and Urban Development PUBLIC AND INDIAN HOUSING 72.40 HOUSING CERTIFICATE FUND ................... ................... ¥4 ................... ¥13 ................... ................... 9 3 ................... ¥4 (Rescission proposal) Program and Financing (in millions of dollars) ¥1 1999 actual Identification code 86–0319–5–1–604 86.90 86.93 2000 est. 21.40 22.00 89.00 90.00 Program and Financing (in millions of dollars) Change in unpaid obligations: Unpaid obligations, start of year: Obligated balance, start of year .............................................................. 73.10 Total new obligations .................................................... 73.20 Total outlays (gross) ...................................................... 74.40 Unpaid obligations, end of year: Obligated balance, end of year ................................................................
