OIG’s work is conducted primarily through audits, inspections, and investigations. The audit function provides for both internal and contract audits: internal audits review and evaluate all facets of agency operations; contract audits provide professional advice to agency contracting officials on accounting and financial matters related to negotiation, award, administration, repricing and settlement of contracts. Inspections provide detailed technical evaluations of agency operations. Investigations provide for the detection and scrutiny of improper and illegal activities involving Commerce programs, personnel and operations. The OIG concentrates on programs and operations that have the greatest potential for inadvertent or deliberate fraud and recovery of funds, while at the same time precluding unnecessary outlays and improving management agency-wide. Performance measures indicate the quality of audits, inspections, and investigations conducted within the reporting period, as well as the dollar value of financial benefits identified by the OIG.

The subsidy amounts are estimated on a present value basis; the administrative expenses are estimated on a cash basis. Consistent with the Administration’s efforts to reduce corporate subsidies, Congress rescinded $115 million in 2001 and $5.2 million in 2002 as the economic outlook for the oil and gas industry dramatically improved since the program’s inception. In light of the greatly reduced demand for oil and gas guarantees, $0.9 million was rescinded in 2003.

EDA assistance stimulates job creation, increases income in distressed communities, and promotes greater national productivity and balanced economic growth. In 2005, EDA will help States, regions, and communities across the Nation create wealth and minimize poverty by promoting a favorable business environment to attract private capital investments and higher-skill/higher-wage jobs through capacity building, planning, infrastructure investments, research grants and strategic initiatives. EDA’s programs will serve as a catalyst for assisting distressed communities achieve long-term competitive economic potential through the strategic investment of resources based upon locally and regionally developed priorities. EDA will continue to place priority on investments that drive economic growth, enhance regional competitiveness and support long-term development of the regional economy while also seeking to greater target funds to our Nation’s communities of highest distress. EDA responds to community priorities and strives to meet its objectives through the use of a broad range of program tools: Planning investments.—Supports the design and implementation of effective economic development policies and programs by local organizations. Technical assistance investments.—Provides for local feasibility and industry studies, and funding for a network of university centers that assist public bodies, nonprofit organizations, and businesses to plan and implement activities designed to generate jobs and income in distressed areas. Public works investments.—Provides for infrastructure projects that enable communities to attract new, or support existing manufacturing and commercial businesses to generate new jobs in communities experiencing high unemployment, low per-capita income, or out-migration. Economic adjustment investments.—Provides flexible assistance tools, including planning, technical assistance, revolving loan funds and infrastructure development, to help communities counteract either a gradual erosion or a sudden dislocation of their local economic structure as a result of natural disasters, international trade competition, or major plant closings. Economic adjustment funds also support Brownfields redevelopment. Research evaluation investments.—Supports studies about the causes of economic distress and approaches to alleviating and preventing such problems, national demonstrations of innovative economic development techniques, and dissemination of economic development information. Trade adjustment assistance.—Provides technical assistance through a national network of 12 Trade Adjustment Assistance Centers to certified U.S. manufacturing firms and industries economically injured as the result of international trade competition. Performance measures.—All EDA program activities under this account support the Department of Commerce strategic goal to provide the information and tools to maximize U.S. competitiveness and enable economic growth for American industries, workers, and consumers. In 2005, EDA will track private investment and jobs generated by its investments. For investments made in 2003, 2004, and 2005, long-term outcome results will be reported by investment recipients over a period of nine years following award at three year intervals. For example, FY 2005 construction and revolving loan fund investments are expected to create or retain 58,500 jobs by 2014. In 2005, EDA will track its capacity-building investments to ensure that the planning, technical assistance, and Sfmt 3616 E:\BUDGET\COM.XXX COM ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT ADMINISTRATION—Continued Federal Funds—Continued 208 THE BUDGET FOR FISCAL YEAR 2005 1251 1263 General and special funds—Continued ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT ASSISTANCE PROGRAMS—Continued trade adjustment assistance programs are providing marketbased and value-added services. In addition, EDA will refine its targets to more closely reflect achievable performance. Below are EDA’s performance goals and selected measures that demonstrate EDA’s support of Commerce’s strategic goals. EDA Goal 1: Increase private enterprise and job creation in economically distressed communities. EDA Goal 2: Improve community capacity to achieve and sustain economic growth.

Current economic statistics.—The business statistics program provides current information on sales and related measures of retail and wholesale trade and selected service industries. This program will expand coverage of the new principal economic indicator of quarterly service industry activity introduced in calendar year 2004. It also will provide annual selected merchandise line data for retail and wholesale trade sectors and will expand annual coverage of service industries. Construction statistics reports are provided on significant construction activity such as housing permits and starts, value of new construction, residential alterations and repairs, and quarterly price indexes for new single-family houses. Manufacturing statistics survey key industrial commodities and manufacturing activities, providing current statistics on the quantity and value of industrial output. General economic statistics provide a Business Register of all U.S. business firms and their establishments, uniform classification data based on the North American Industry Classification System (NAICS), annual county business data, corporate financial data, e-commerce estimates, and an economic research program. The E-Government increase will permit businesses to file electronically in any one of almost one hundred current economic surveys. Foreign trade statistics provide for publication of monthly, cumulative, and annual reports on the quantity, shipping weight, and dollar value of imports and exports, by mode of transportation, detailed commodity category, customs districts, and country of origin or destination. This program covers the Census Bureau responsibilities under the Trade Act of 1974. This program will accelerate the release of trade statistics and expand the Automated Export System. Government statistics reports provide information on the revenue, expenditures, indebtedness and debt transactions, financial assets, employment, and payrolls of State and local governments. The Census Bureau provides quarterly information on State and local tax revenue on the national level VerDate jul 14 2003 15:09 Jan 20, 2004 Jkt 198921 PO 00000 Frm 00009 Fmt 3616 209 by type of tax and governmental level, and provides information on financial assistance programs of the Federal Government. Current demographic statistics.—Household surveys provide information on the number, geographic distribution, and the social and economic characteristics of the population. The Census Bureau compiles statistics on the Nation’s housing inventory and provides national and regional estimates of housing vacancy rates. Population and housing analyses provide current demographic reports on the geographic distribution and on the demographic, social, and economic characteristics of the population, as well as current estimates and future projections of the population of the United States, and special analyses of demographic, social and economic trends. International statistics provide estimates of population, labor force, and economic activity, including spatial distribution, and analyses concerning aspects of demographic policies, economic policies, and trends for various countries. Survey development and data services.—The Statistical Abstract that the Census Bureau prepares annually summarizes Government and private statistics of the industrial, social, political, and economic activities of the United States. The Bureau conducts general research on survey methods and techniques to find ways of improving the efficiency, accuracy, and timeliness of statistical programs. Survey of Program Dynamics.—The Personal Responsibility and Work Opportunity Act of 1996 required that the Survey of Income and Program Participation be expanded to evaluate the impact of welfare reforms made by that Act. This program will be considered as part of the re-authorization of the Temporary Assistance for Needy Families program. The State Children’s Health Insurance Program (SCHIP) was established and funded through mandatory appropriations by the Medicare, Medicaid, and State Children’s Health Insurance Program Balanced Budget Refinement Act of 1999 (P.L. 106–113). Congress appropriated $10 million to produce statistically reliable annual data from the Annual Social and Economic Supplement of the Current Population Survey on the number of low-income children who do not have health insurance coverage. Data from this enhanced survey are used in the formula to allocate funds to States under the SCHIP program. Performance measures.—Activities under the Salaries and Expenses account support the Department of Commerce’s strategic goal involving promotion of economic growth. The performance goals are to meet the needs of policymakers, businesses, nonprofit organizations, and the public for current measures of the U.S. population, economy, and governments, and to foster an environment that supports innovation, promotes data use, minimizes respondent burden, respects individual privacy, and ensures confidentiality. A more detailed presentation of the goals, performance measures, and targets is found in the FY 2005 Budget Submission.

Economic statistics programs: Economic censuses.—The economic censuses provide data on manufacturers, mining, retail and wholesale trade and service industries, construction, and transportation. The censuses are taken every fifth year, covering calendar years ending in two and seven. 2005 is the sixth year in the 2002 Economic Census cycle and the first year in the 2007 Economic Census cycle. The focus in 2005 is on the publication and dissemination of information collected and processed in the previous two years. The Bureau will continue to process the data collection for the Survey of Business Owners, which presents information about the characteristics of almost 23 million businesses. Census of governments.—The census of governments provides information on State and local governments’ taxes, tax valuations, governmental receipts, expenditures, indebtedness, and number of employees. This census is taken every fifth year for calendar years ending in two and seven. 2005 is the first year in the five-year cycle of the 2007 Census of Governments. The focus for 2005 will be on planning, scheduling, and organizing activities for all three phases of the Census of Governments; Organization, Employment, and Finance. Demographic statistics programs: Intercensal demographic estimates.—In years between decennial censuses, this program develops annual estimates of Sfmt 3616 E:\BUDGET\COM.XXX COM BUREAU OF THE CENSUS—Continued Federal Funds—Continued DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE the population and its demographic characteristics, for the Nation, States, metropolitan areas, counties and functioning governmental units. These data are used for a variety of purposes including the allocation of nearly $200 billion in Federal funds, as controls for a variety of federally sponsored surveys, as denominators for vital statistics and other health and economic indicators, and for a variety of Federal, State, and private program planning needs. These data will also allow for and will provide ‘‘annual estimates’’ for the major components of demographic change instead of the current ‘‘once a decade’’ estimate. In 2005, the program will continue to improve its estimates of international migration at a subnational level. Decennial Census.—The Census Bureau has begun the process of planning the next decennial census. The plan for the 2010 Census features three key components which will reduce operational risks, improve accuracy, provide more relevant data, and contain cost; (1) Establishment of an early design and planning process that will allow the Census Bureau to test fully all major elements of a simplified, streamlined census designed to collect the basic (‘‘short form’’) data needed to fulfill constitutional and legal mandates; (2) Implementation of the American Community Survey (ACS) to collect ‘‘long form’’ data on an annual basis, instead of having a long form in 2010; and (3) Enhancing the Census Bureau’s geographic database and associated address list, referred to as MAF/TIGER (Master Address File/Topologically Integrated Geographic Encoding and Referencing) by replacing the internally developed MAF/TIGER system with one that uses Global Positioning System technology and aerial photography to update and improve the address and street information gathered at great expense for Census 2000. Activities in these three areas are highly integrated, complement each other, and form the basis for re-engineering the 2010 Census. In 2005, the Census Bureau will be continuing extensive planning, testing and development activities to support the re-engineered, short form only, 2010 Census. In 2005, the Bureau also will continue implementation of the ACS. To enhance the MAF/TIGER system, the Census Bureau will continue a multi-year effort of correcting the accuracy of map feature locations in 700 of the Nation’s 3,233 counties. Demographic surveys sample redesign.—This program provides for the sample selection of monthly, quarterly and annual household surveys to conform to the redistribution of the population measured in the decennial census. This is done after each decennial census in order to select accurate samples for the major household surveys throughout the decade. Implementation of the first new samples began in 2004. Electronic information collection (EIC).—EIC is the Census Bureau’s program to transform its business processes—the collection, processing, and dissemination of information. Making the greatest possible use of automation and telecommunications, EIC seeks to provide the tools and systems to deliver to our customers accurate information quickly and efficiently, with as little burden as possible on those who provide the data to the Census Bureau. Geographic support.—This activity’s goal is to determine the correct location of every business establishment in the U.S. and its territories. The activity’s major components include the TIGER data base and the MAF. TIGER provides maps and geographic information for data tabulation; MAF provides the geographically-assigned address list for the Nation. Together, they provide essential information and products critical for conducting many of the Bureau’s programs. Data processing systems.—This activity provides for the purchase or renting of hardware and software needed for the Bureau’s general purpose computing facilities. Performance measures.—Activities under the Periodic Censuses and Programs account support the Department of Com- VerDate jul 14 2003 15:09 Jan 20, 2004 Jkt 198921 PO 00000 Frm 00011 Fmt 3616 211 merce’s strategic goal involving promotion of economic growth. The performance goals are to support the economic and political foundations of the United States by producing benchmark measures of the economy and population for the administration and equitable funding of Federal, State, and local programs; to meet constitutional and legislative mandates by implementing a reengineered 2010 Census that is cost-effective, provides more timely data, improves coverage, accuracy, and reduces operational risk; and, to foster an environment that supports innovation, promotes data use, minimizes respondent burden, and respects individual privacy. A more detailed presentation of the goals, performance measures, and targets is found in the FY 2005 Budget Submission.

It produces the U.S. Gross Domestic Product (GDP) and associated national economic accounts that provide a comprehensive picture of the U.S. economy encompassing national, international, industry-by-industry, and regional economic activity. These statistics provide the means of comparing the U.S. with other world economies. Sfmt 3616 E:\BUDGET\COM.XXX COM ECONOMIC AND STATISTICAL ANALYSIS—Continued Federal Funds—Continued DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE BEA’s data are used to formulate and evaluate U.S. Government fiscal and monetary policy, including preparing the Federal budget and allocating over $165 billion of Federal Government support to the States. The BEA data are also used regularly by State and local governments in their planning and evaluation of public policy. In addition, BEA data are important to U.S. businesses; for business planning and the tracking of the U.S. and regional economic activity and development. To prepare the accounts, BEA assembles thousands of monthly, quarterly, and annual economic data series, ranging from national level retail sales to county level wages and salaries, and combines them into consistent and comprehensive sets of accounts. National economic accounts.—The national accounts both detail the relationship between U.S. economic production and the incomes it generates and trace the principal economic flows among the major sectors and industries in the economy. They are best known by summary measures such as gross domestic product (GDP), corporate profits, and personal saving. In addition, the accounts provide information on the U.S. capital stock by type and industry; GDP by industry; and, through the input-output accounts, information on how industries interact, all of which are used in calculating the GDP. The accounts are regarded as the mainstays of U.S. macroeconomic analysis. International economic accounts.—The international transactions accounts provide information on trade in goods and services, investment income, and government and private financial flows. They are best known by summary measures such as the balance of payments and the trade balance. In addition, the accounts provide information on the U.S. international investment position, which measures the value of U.S. international assets and liabilities. These accounts are critical statistical tools used in formulating and evaluating international economic policy. BEA’s data on direct investment - the most detailed data set on the operations of multinational companies available - are used to assess the role these companies play in the global economy. Regional economic accounts.—The regional accounts provide data on total and per capita personal income by region, State, metropolitan area, and county, and on gross state product. The regional accounts statistics are essential for State government revenue forecasting, the allocation of Federal funds to the States, and for private sector investment decisions. Industry economic accounts.—The industry economic accounts, presented both in an input-output framework and as annual output by each industry, provide a detailed view of the interrelationships between U.S. producers and users and the contribution to production across industries. These accounts are used extensively by policymakers and businesses to understand industry interactions, productivity trends, and the changing structure of the U.S. economy. Implementing BEA’s strategic plan.—The dynamics of the U.S. economy, with its growing complexity, technological advances, and dramatic changes in structure, make it increasingly difficult to provide an accurate, up-to-date picture of economic activity. Add the effects of recent events related to national security and the business cycle turndown, and it is now more important than ever that government and business leaders have the most relevant, accurate, and timely economic information possible. BEA must continually expand and improve its economic accounts to keep pace with the economy and meet the increased demand for economic information. BEA is working to overcome statistical weaknesses and close gaps in data coverage by developing such improvements as more accurate measures of services, profits, compensation, new quality-adjusted prices, new measures of international trade and finance, and accelerated release of industry and international trade estimates. In FY 2005, BEA will VerDate jul 14 2003 15:09 Jan 20, 2004 Jkt 198921 PO 00000 Frm 00013 Fmt 3616 213 build on past progress toward accelerating the release of economic indicators by also accelerating its estimates of GDP, personal income and consumer spending, gross state product, metropolitan and local income, and further acceleration of the estimates of international trade in services. BEA will further improve the accuracy of its statistics in FY 2005 by incorporating real-time data purchased from the private sector into its measures, expanding its surveys to collect more comprehensive—and more timely—data on international trade in services, updating the U.S. international financial accounts to meet international standards, improving the accuracy of the input-output accounts, integrating the new North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) into remaining aspects of the accounts, and developing detailed annual capital flow tables to inform decisions on business investment. BEA will also work with the Census Bureau and other Federal agencies to fill large remaining gaps in data sources for services and other key components of the economy. Improving information technology.—BEA’s statistical processing systems play an essential role in the production of the economic accounts. It is critical that they be redesigned to incorporate new methodologies and modernized to take full advantage of current information technology capabilities. In FY 2005, BEA will continue its system modernization efforts to include the international accounts, industry accounts, and regional accounts. BEA will continue to upgrade its suite of software tools (e.g. econometric and database software) that are critical in supporting timely and reliable economic estimates. BEA also will expand its electronic reporting capability to more of its international surveys and will continue to develop new data dissemination features via its website. Policy support.—The Economics and Statistics Administration’s headquarters operation advises the Secretary of Commerce and other government officials on matters related to economic developments and forecasts, and the development of options and positions relating to both macroeconomic and microeconomic policy. Reimbursable program.—ESA provides economic and statistical data and analyses on a reimbursable and advance payment basis to other Federal agencies, individuals, and firms requesting such information. Funds received for these services cover the cost of performing this work. Activities under Economic and Statistical Analysis support the Commerce Department’s strategic goal to provide the information and tools to maximize U.S. competitiveness and enable economic growth for American industries, workers, and consumers. Performance measures.—BEA will seek to maintain delivery of all data releases on schedule, and a mean rating greater than a 4.0 (on a 5-point scale) in users’ satisfaction, as determined by a customer survey. In addition, BEA will achieve specified milestones in improving the economic accounts, accelerating economic estimates, and meeting international obligations.

Working as a key part of the Government-wide Trade Promotion Coordinating Committee, ITA will pursue this mission through the activities of its five major subdivisions and through reimbursable programs as follows: Manufacturing and services.—This new unit focuses on the domestic and international aspects of U.S. industrial competitiveness; works with U.S. industry to evaluate the needs of American manufacturers; assesses the economic impact of new and existing government rules and regulations on U.S. manufacturing competitiveness; and represents and advocates for the interests of the U.S. manufacturing and services sectors in the U.S. Government policy setting and regulatory programs. Market access and compliance.—The Market Access and Compliance unit (MAC) is the U.S. Government’s front-line offensive team working to unlock foreign markets for American goods and services country-by-country and region-by-region. MAC concentrates on market access issues and the development of strategies to overcome market access obstacles faced by U.S. businesses. MAC maintains in-depth knowledge of the trade policies of our trading partners. It monitors foreign country compliance with numerous multilateral and bilateral trade-related agreements, identifying compliance problems and other market access obstacles. MAC’s specialists work with other Government agencies to address barriers rapidly, and to ensure that U.S. firms know how to use the market opening agreements. It provides information on foreign trade and business practices to U.S. firms and works to find opportunities and to develop market strategies in traditional markets and in the emerging markets. MAC’s objective is to develop and to update continuously current and long-term market access strategies, including developing the information needed to conduct trade negotiations to open markets. MAC’s specialists work hand-in-hand with U.S. business, trade associations and other business organizations, Commerce’s industry and technical specialists, and the U.S. Commercial Service’s domestic and overseas offices. This unit will continue to provide support for the operation of the North American Free Trade Agreement. Import administration.—Import Administration investigates antidumping and countervailing duty cases to ensure compliance with applicable U.S. statutes and administers certain other statutory programs relating to imports and foreign trade zones. Trade promotion and the U.S. Foreign Commercial Service.—conducts a variety of trade promotion programs intended to broaden and deepen the base of U.S. exports, particularly of small and medium-sized firms; provides American companies with reliable advice on the range of public and private assistance available and knowledgeable support for all other Federal trade promotion services; serves as the primary sales force for Federal trade finance programs for smaller firms, offers export assistance through information, referral and follow-up services through its integrated global field network; and leads interagency advocacy efforts for major overseas projects, including early involvement in project development and assistance to resolve post-transaction problems. Administration and executive direction.—Administration and Executive Direction provide policy leadership and administration services for the other ITA subdivisions. Executive Direction includes the Office of the Under Secretary for International Trade, the Deputy Under Secretary for International Trade, and subordinate offices covering Legislative and Intergovernmental Affairs, Public Affairs, Office of the Chief Information Officer, and the Trade Promotion Coordinating Committee staff.

To meet 21st century challenges, NOS seeks to maintain its suite of navigation, response and restoration, and coastal resource science and management programs. National Marine Fisheries Service.—These programs provide for the management and conservation of the Nation’s living marine resources and their environment, including fish stocks, marine mammals and endangered species. Using science-based conservation, management and restoration activities, these resources can benefit the Nation on a sustained basis. Increases are proposed to carry out the legislative mandates of the Magnuson-Stevens Fishery Conservation and Management Act, the Endangered Species Act, and the Marine Mammal Protection Act and other responsibilities. These increases will allow NOAA to build sustainable fisheries, recover protected species and sustain healthy coastal ecosystems for the enjoyment of all and the communities that depend on them. Office of Oceanic and Atmospheric Research (OAR).—These programs provide the critical environmental research and technology needed to improve NOAA services (weather and air quality warnings and forecasts, climate predictions, and marine services) to enable the Nation to balance a growing economy with effective management and prediction of our environment and natural resources. To accomplish these goals, OAR supports a network of scientists in its Federal research laboratories, universities, and joint institutes and partnership programs. OAR provides the scientific basis for national policy formulation in key environmental areas, e.g., climate change, weather research, air quality, stratospheric ozone depletion, marine biotechnology, aquaculture, and environmental observing technologies. The NOAA-wide programs also funded in OAR are Climate Change Research, Ocean Exploration, and High Performance Computing and Communications (HPCC). National Weather Service (NWS).—These programs provide timely and accurate meteorologic, hydrologic, and oceanographic warnings, forecasts, and planning information to ensure the safety of the population, mitigate property losses, and improve the economic efficiency of the Nation. NWS is also responsible for issuing operational climate forecasts for the United States. NWS data and products form a national information database and infrastructure which can be used by other government agencies, the private sector, the public, and the global community. Funds are requested to implement air quality forecasts, to support THORPEX, a Global Atmospheric Research Program, and to meet out-year performance goals for weather warnings and forecasts. National Environmental Satellite, Data, and Information Service.—These programs provide for operation of environmental polar-orbiting and geostationary satellites; for the collection and archiving of global environmental data and information; and services for distribution to users in commerce, industry, agriculture, science and engineering, the general public and Federal, State and local agencies.

In addition to the examination of applications for patent grants and trademark registrations, the USPTO provides technical advice and information to other Executive Branch agencies on intellectual property matters and the trade-related aspects of intellectual property rights. Under the Administration’s proposal, the USPTO would have a program level of $1,533 million in 2005 and fees of $1,533 million. The $1,533 million fee level assumes enactment of legislation, proposed with the 2004 Budget, to restructure statutory fees in support of the goals and objectives of the USPTO’s 21st Century Strategic Plan, including proposed quality initiatives, E-Government initiatives, and acceleration of patent processing. During 2005, the Office will continue to operate through two distinct business lines: Patent business.—The Patent Business grants exclusive rights, for limited times, to inventors for their discoveries.

The Office issues notices of allowance and certificates of registration based on a trademark attorney’s determination. Trademark application examination activities also include inter parte proceedings involving oppositions, cancellations and ex parte proceedings. The 2005 program level provides resources to fund 2005 trademark programs and staff levels, including inflationary adjustments.

The Agency determined that, in addition to improving the use of its current resources, significant new investments were needed in automation and examiner resources to address these concerns and meet current and future requirements of the intellectual property community. Relative to current law, the legislation is expected to raise fee collections by $219 million in FY 2005.

Extramural programs: Advanced technology program (ATP).—The ATP endeavors to help accelerate the commercialization of high-risk, broadbenefit enabling technologies with significant commercial potential. ATP is a merit-based, rigorously competitive, costshared partnership program that provides assistance to U.S. businesses and joint R&D ventures to help them improve their competitive position. The President’s 2005 Budget proposes to eliminate the program and, therefore, no funds are requested for FY 2005. Manufacturing extension partnership (MEP).—As a nationwide system of centers serving clients in all 50 states and Puerto Rico, MEP’s goal is to improve the competitiveness of U.S.-based small manufacturers. MEP does this by providing information, decision support, and implementation assistance to small manufacturers in adopting advanced manufacturing technologies and business best practices. The centers are created through a partnership among State, Federal, and local governments, educational institutions, and private industry, and they tailor services to meet the needs of the local manufacturing base in the area. Performance measures.—The activities under this account support the Commerce strategic goal to foster science and technological leadership by protecting intellectual property, enhancing technical standards and advancing measurement science. The performance of these activities is evaluated through a combination of external review, economic impact studies, and evaluation of numerous quantitative outcomes and outputs. Performance goals: 1. Accelerate private investment in and development of high-risk, broad-impact technologies. 2. Raise the productivity and competitiveness of small manufacturers.

Additionally, it manages the Federal Government’s use of the radio frequency spectrum and performs extensive research in telecommunication sciences. Domestic and international policies.—NTIA develops and advocates policies to improve and expand domestic telecommunications services and markets. NTIA provides advice to White House officials, coordinates with other Executive Branch agencies, and participates in relevant Congressional actions and interagency and Federal Communications Commission (FCC) proceedings on a host of issues. NTIA’s focus is on current and emerging issues such as the deployment of broadband networks and services. NTIA develops policies promoting universal service to all Americans, competition in telecommunications and information markets, and development of new technologies. NTIA makes policy recommenda- VerDate jul 14 2003 15:09 Jan 20, 2004 Jkt 198921 PO 00000 Frm 00035 Fmt 3616 235 tions in such areas as traditional common carrier networks, wireless services and products, the mass media (including advanced television), as well as issues arising from the Internet and electronic commerce. NTIA advocates the advancement of U.S. priorities in the international telecommunications policy and regulatory areas. NTIA will continue to encourage forcefully the broad liberalization of telecommunication regulations now taking hold across the globe that create significant opportunities for U.S. telecommunications interests and enterprises, including emphasis on the international development of electronic commerce as an essential element of today’s information society. NTIA supports U.S. interests in international and regional fora affecting telecommunications standards, infrastructure development and market access. NTIA also represents Executive Branch concerns related to international telecommunications regulation before the FCC. In coordination with the Department of State and the FCC, the agency also discharges statutory responsibilities with respect to international satellite organizations. Spectrum management.—NTIA manages the Federal Government’s use of the radio frequency spectrum, both domestically and internationally. In coordination with the FCC and with the advice of the Interdepartment Radio Advisory Committee (IRAC), NTIA supports the spectrum requirements of the Federal Government, makes plans to satisfy the Government’s future spectrum needs, coordinates Federal spectrum requirements in shared spectrum bands, and develops and implements policy to use the spectrum effectively and efficiently. NTIA prepares for, participates in, and implements the results of regional, national, and international conferences on spectrum use and allocations. NTIA also is responsible for emergency communications and Federal Government continuity of operations planning for communications during emergency conditions. NTIA coordinates its activities with the private sector through its spectrum openness program and its Internet web site and apprises private sector entities of Government spectrum use and rules and regulations governing this use. NTIA reviews major Federal communications systems to certify that spectrum will be available; conducts frequency band studies to define spectrum issues and makes plans to prevent future interference; and processes approximately 90,000 annual requests for frequency assignments to meet the communications needs of the Federal Government and support analysis and engineering aspects of spectrum management. NTIA also strives to identify and apply new spectrum saving technologies, identify adjacent band effects for use by designers of future communications, and address the public safety community’s need for spectrum and interoperability at the Federal, State, and local levels. Telecommunication sciences research.—NTIA develops improved spectrum measurement techniques to address the increasing use of broadband technologies, including digital signals, spread-spectrum, and frequency agile systems. NTIA supports the development of wireless technologies by studying the behavior of broadband radio waves in indoor and outdoor environments in order to create more accurate modeling of radio propagation that will lead to improved methods of spectrum sharing among users. Additionally, NTIA prepares and coordinates proposed domestic and international telecommunications standards, develops and demonstrates user-friendly ways to assess the performance of industry and Government telecommunications networks, evaluates future technologies that may facilitate competition in the U.S. telecommunications industry, promotes international trade opportunities for U.S. telecommunications firms and improves the cost effectiveness of Government telecommunications use.

Under current law, winning bidders must negotiate with Federal entities upon the close of an auction and reimburse the agencies directly for their relocation costs. The Administration proposes to streamline this process by creating a central spectrum relocation fund. Auction receipts associated with the reallocated spectrum would be paid into the Fund and Federal agencies would be paid for their relocation costs out of the Fund. To expedite the clearing of the auctioned spectrum, the legislation would provide agencies mandatory spending authority for the relocation payments. The estimated mandatory spending is $2.5 billion from 2006 to 2011. The budget includes a Government-wide allowance for the estimated aggregated collections and outlays for agencies’ relocation costs. f 15 ................... ¥1 ...................
