Schwartz FROM: Jose Cerda, III Domestic Policy Council SUBJECT: Passback Ken, Here's the word from Carol's 10am crime meeting, which Chris was not able to make. I'll also get Bruce or Carol to reaffirm the budget-related decisions below: 1. Fully fund the Police Corps. Take 10 million from prisons and 10 million from prevention. 2. Raise the overall cops authorization to 1,882 from 1,850. I know Bruce and I said it was OK to go lower, but now cops is the strongest card we can play in the crime game. Again, take 16 million from prevention and 16 million from prisons. We need, however, to keep the overall prisons authorization at or above 500 million. 3. Fully fund Byrne. In no way and I know this it tough -- can a passback include a cut to Byrne. One of the Republican options is to replace our police and prevention programs with huge increases to Byrne (now that they have most of the governorships). Thus, any news that we will cut Byrne again will only reinforce their arguement to revisit the crime bill programs. This means the money has to come from outside the trust fund, and I don't know how we get that done (how about those technology programs that the GOP will never fund?) If push comes to shove on this issue, it's better to put the Byrne money back in, cut nothing else now, and sweat the details later, than it is to send any paper to the agencies that cuts Byrne. Ideas? Please don't circulate this e-mail. Again, I'll speak to Bruce and Carol about updating Chris on this immediately, butut there was wide agreement at the crime meeting that this is how we needed to proceed for now. Thanks, Jose' EXECUTIVE OFFICE OF THE PRESIDENT 16-Nov-1994 10:52am TO: Jose Cerda, III FROM: Bruce N. Reed Domestic Policy Council SUBJECT: money Thanks for the good word about cops in schools. I think a no-parole, cop in every school message would keep us in the ballgame for next year. On the budget, I think we need to do two things: 1. You should call Schwartz and tell him that we want to fully fund Police Corps. Take 10m from prevention and 10m from prisons. 2. Should we try to raise the overall cop authoriz back up to 1,882 from 1,850? Why don't you take that up with Schwartz (I told him before it was OK to go lower, but now cops is the only horse we have in this race)? Again, 16m from prevention and 16m from prisons although the overall prison money should stay at or above 500m if possible. 3. Get Carol the figures on Byrne, and ask her to call Edley and deliver the news. The money has to come from outside the Trust Fund, which means cutting 200m or so from any of the many commerce and technology programs that the GOPs will never fund. She can tell Edley that we can sweat the details later, but under no circumstances should a passback go out without fully funding Byrne. Thanks. You're a friend to cops everywhere, and their love for you should keep them in our camp.

The title from the original document is indicated below. I Divider Title: Federal Drug Control Programs Cross-Cut I. Federal Drug Control Funding Grew $1.1 Billion In FY 1995 ($ in Millions) FY 1994 FY 1995 FY 1996 Enacted Enacted Agency Req Drug Programs $12,134 $12,299 $13,965 VCRTF - Drug Portion 967 1,227 Total Drug Funding $12,134 $13,266 $15,192 Funding For Drug Control Programs Is In Many Cases Derived From Agency Program Totals As An Estimate of What Portion Can Be Attributed To Drug Abuse Control. Some estimates are "hard", others are "soft". И. For FY 1995, Most Drug Funding Increases [Over $960M] Came From Crime Act's VCRTF: The Administration requested $13.2 Billion in fiscal year 1995 for drug control programs including initiatives for: Hard-Core Treatment ($355M) i School-Based Prevention ($191M) i and International Programs ($68M). Only a small percentage of these investments were funded. Funding changes for drug categories in FY 1995 were: Prevention & Treatment Funding Increased $428M [or + 9%], But The Administration's Hard Core Drug User Initiative Was Largely Unfunded. State & Federal Law Enforcement Funding Increased $794M [or + 14%] Interdiction & International Programs Funding Decreased $ 93M [or -6%] III. For FY 1996, Aggregate Drug Funding Will Also Be Appreciably Raised The Drug Portion Of The Crime Act [Over $1.2 Billion]. Drug Courts [@ $200M] State & Federal Drug Prison Treatment [@ $46M] Prison Grants/Boot Camp Programs [@ $107M] Community Policing [@ $628M] Law Enforcement Grants [@ $277M] 1 IV. For FY 1996 Drug Control Agency Requests Are $1.8 Billion Over The FY 1995 Enacted Level. ONDCP Priorities For Funding Increases Over FY 1995 Levels Are: Treatment & Prevention: Hard Core Treatment - Fully fund HHS's drug treatment request (+$260M). This request level was negotiated by ONDCP with HHS -- under the threat of an ONDDCP "decertification" of the HHS Request -- during budget preparation. Thus, it represents ONDCP's "de facto" drug treatment request. This treatment funding would go to non-incarcerated addicts. Increases for prison-related drug treatment is funded through the VCRTF (+$241M). Prevention Program Growth - Add $40M To HHS Prevention Request (+$369M+$40M) Law Enforcement: Marijuana Eradication - Add $5M to DEA request ($909M+$5M) High Intensity Drug Trafficking Areas (HIDTA). ONDCP's own request asks for funds to adds three "Diversion" HIDTAs to the existing list of seven HIDTAs. [two were added in FY 1995.] Fully funds ONDCP's HIDTA Request (+$39M) Byrne Grant Funding - Fully fund the DOJ Request (+$50M) International: Source Country Programs - Fully Fund The State Department Request (+$108M) 2 FEDERAL DRUG CONTROL FUNDING In millions of dollars 20,000 VCRTF 15,000 37% 10,000 11% 5,000 52% 0 1982 1983 1984 1985 1986 1987 1988 1989 1990 1991 1992 1993 1994 1995 1996 Request Dom.

Clinton Presidential Records Digital Records Marker This is not a presidential record. This is used as an administrative marker by the William J. Clinton Presidential Library Staff. This marker identifies the place of a tabbed divider. Given our digitization capabilities, we are sometimes unable to adequately scan such dividers. The title from the original document is indicated below. II Divider Title: Violent Crime Reduction Trust Fund The Violent Crime Reduction Trust Fund (VCRTF) was established as a funding mechanism to support programs authorized in the Violent Crime Control and Law Enforcement Act of 1994 [P.L.103-322]. The Fund is sustained by annual deposits in amounts shown below derived from previously estimated savings generated by reductions in Federal FTEs. The Fund provides resources for six years [FY 1995 - FY 2000] at specific BA and Outlay levels. Rules governing the use of VCRTF resources require a sequester of funds should either BA or Outlay levels be exceeded. They also allow for unfunded authorizations to be carried forward if unused and for limited flexibility to adjust funding among programs within three major categories -- Prevention, State and Local Law Enforcement, and Federal Law Enforcement. FY 1995 to FY 1998 authorizations exceed the BA available in the VCRTF, but in FY 1999 and FY 2000 the reverse is true, as shown below. There are over 70 programs authorized for funding under the VCRTF (see pages 7-10). A summary can be found on page 6.

(Cap Less Auth) - 446 - 579 - 416 - 667 + 359 +1,741 o Allocation of FY 1996 Programs Department of Justice Request: DOJ's request for the allocation of FY 1996 VCRTF amounts was generally even handed. DOJ requested, if not full funding, at least adequate funding for those programs administered by other departments. Justice requested full funding or close to full funding for the Community Policing Program (including FY95 carryover authorizations), Grants to Combat Violence Against Women, Byrne Formula Grants, Treasury 1 and Justice general authorizations, and Federal programs to address illegal immigration. After covering clear Administration priorities, Justice allocated sizable funding for the Local Partnership Act and spread the remaining available funds on a pro-rata basis. As a result, for FY 1996, Justice requested funding for 62% of prevention program authorizations, 84% of State and local law enforcement authorizations, and 96% of Federal law enforcement authorizations. PAD Changes To DOJ Request: The PAD review of VCRTF allocations zeroed out two programs, the Local Partnership Act (LPA) and the Community Economic Partnership Program. These cuts, together with other small reductions to the Justice request, free more than $150 million to beef up other more focused prevention and law enforcement programs. The resulting redistribution of funds (shown on the attached table) concentrates resources to support other top Administration priorities such as: Ounce of Prevention, drug courts, prison drug treatment, and school-based crime prevention programs. Sensitive Programs: As noted above, authorizations for programs for 1995 through 1998 exceed available trust fund resources. As a result, some program funding must be delayed or reduced in the early years in order to accommodate higher priority spending. Some possible areas of contention with the PAD recommendations are: The Local Partnership Act (LPA). This program is essentially a form of urban revenue sharing. It is strongly supported by Rep. Conyers [its author] and large city mayors who stand to benefit from it. The LPA, which is authorized at $270 million for FY 1996 [$1.6 billion over 5 years], is proposed to be funded at only $3 million for FY 1996. The $3 million is for Census to complete statistical surveys needed to accurately formulate funds distribution. Both HUD and OMB staff view the Act's formula mechanism as flawed and Census maintains that the statistical data to support funds distribution is inadequate. The delay in funding for one-year would provide sufficient time to ensure formula anomalies are addressed. Violent Repeat Offender Incarceration Grants. This program provides discretionary grants to States and localities for prison construction and/or prison operations. It is strongly supported by "law and order" lawmakers. These grants are authorized at $750 million for FY 1996. The PAD recommendation provides $419 million, or 56 percent of the FY 1996 authorizations. Proponents of increased prison spending will likely be critical of the 44 percent shortfall. 2 Prevention Funding. In the aggregate, the PAD recommends funding sixty-two percent of authorized crime prevention funding, or $740 million of $1.1 billion in potential appropriations. Critics may maintain that the Administration is not funding the Crime Act in a balanced way, citing that the Administration is requesting nearly full funding (96%) of Federal law enforcement programs authorized under the Act. This difference, however, is driven largely by the desire to finance immigration programs and Justice and Treasury programs. Byrne Formula Grants. This program has been in existence since 1988 and provides grants for State and local drug law enforcement. The PAD recommends the Byrne Program be funded at $260 million for FY 1996, its full 1996 authorization level ($130M) along with carryover 1995 authorizations (an additional $130M). While this represents the maximum possible under the Act, the PAD recommendation does not provide any general fund, or non-VCRTF appropriations for this program. This means that the VCRTF would be the sole funding source for this program. Although over $3.0 billion of other law enforcement grant will be requested through the VCRTF, the Administration would be criticized for allowing total funding for the Byrne Grant program to erode. To sustain the Byrne Grant Program at FY 1995 levels, $190 million of non-VCRTF funding would be required. The PAD views this as unrealistic, as the DOJ request is $2.0 billion above its planning guidance. Byrne Formula Grant Program ($ in Millions) FY 1994 FY 1995 FY 1996 Enacted Enacted Request PAD General Fund $ 358 $ -- $ 190 $ 0 VCRTF -- 450 260 260 Total Grants $ 358 $ 450 $ 450 $ 260 3 Funding Options: Option #1. Adopt a programmatic allocation as shown on the attached tables. Such an allocation places emphasis on Administration priorities and delays implementation of those programs where benefits are either suspect or unproven. Option #1 does carry the risk of criticism from advocates of those programs viewed as under funded. Option #2. Shift some funding from Administration priorities to address some sensitive programs identified above. This would enable programs to be allocated at least some funding for start-up, such as the Local Partnership Act, Community Economic Partnership operations, and increased funding for prison grants. Such a shift could require a reduction of approximately five percent to fully funded Administration priorities. Option #3. Distribute all VCRTF funding on a strictly mechanical basis, providing each program with a pro-rata share of available budget authority. Such an allocation would provide each program with approximately 88% of its FY 1996 authorization. Under this option, all programs would receive some funding regardless of programmatic merit, timing, or public policy considerations. Option 3 would also address the issue of "fair" allocation of funding among the three major crime act categories - prevention, State & local law enforcement, and Federal law enforcement. Such an approach would however, result in significant cuts to Administration priorities. The option would also ignore the problem of how to address unused FY 1995 authorizations carried over to FY 1996.

STREAMLINING PLANS: NPR TARGET POPULATIONS 64 Department of Justice Overview Reconciling crime control with reducing the size of the Federal government requires difficult choices that must be addressed this year. The recent crime bill and Congressional reluctance to reduce crime-related programs complicates these choices. Additionally, any proposed reduction in crime control resources may make the Administration vulnerable to charges of being "soft on crime." The Justice Department's 1996 request exceeds budget authority ceilings by $2 billion, outlay ceilings by $.8 billion, and FTE ceilings by 6,000. With some difficulty, the Department can reach 1996 outlay ceilings. However, dramatic policy changes and painful reductions will be necessary to slow the Department's growth trends. The PAD recommendation is slightly under the outlay ceiling, but exceeds budget authority ceilings by $.6 billion and FTE ceilings by 3,300. Essentially, it would continue 1995 policies and eschew initiatives beyond those which the Violent Crime Reduction Trust Fund (VCRTF) could support. Most of the increases are associated with staffing up newly constructed prisons. The second largest current services increase is associated with the second year costs associated with the Administration's 1995 immigration reform initiatives. The third largest current services increase is associated with staff increases provided by Congress in the context of the 1995 Commerce, Justice, and State Department appropriations bill. Namely, the Congress increased 1995 staffing for FBI, U.S. Attorneys and DEA (by almost 2,000 FTEs). When these increases are "annualized" in 1996 (i.e., full year employment of staff that are hired part way through 1995), the 1996 FTEs must rise higher than the 1995 levels. Of particular. importance is the issue of Federal prison privatization. In particular, we are pressing DOJ to contract out prison operations in select circumstances: 1) for prisons yet-to-be-opened, not existing prisons; 2) for minimum and low security prisons, not medium or high security prisons. If this were accomplished, we could save over 4,000 FTEs by 1999. Admittedly sparse data suggest that privatization could be expected to save about 20% of Federal costs. Issue paper #1 discusses this issue in more detail. Finally, there are two issues that are not part of Justice's request but may be perceived as "commitments" by the Administration: funding for digital telephony and a new international law enforcement center in Eastern Europe. These issues are mentioned in the increases above planning guidance.

DOJ indicates that is is unable to cut FTE any further given Crime Bill responsibilities. DOJ's streamlining plan is divorced from its 1996 budget request, as explained in the Summary Assessment of DOJ's plan. The streamlining request estimates cannot be directly compared with the PA'D recommendation. # None allowed by OMB to date. However, we understand that Civil Division has processed about 100 unathorized 1995 buyouts (begun in 1994, but offered in 1995). III-3 STREAMLINING PLAN STATUS SUMMARY ASSESSMENT DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE SUMMARY ASSESSMENT The streamlining plan keys off a current services baseline, exclusive of requested 1996 program increases. However, DOJ's 1996 budget request includes substantial increases to the 1995 enacted level. Therefore, a "disconnect" exists between DOJ's 1996 request and its proposed streamlining plan. Any program increase would require offsetting reductions in addition to those contained in the streamlining plan. The plan does not offer substantial FTE savings from automation /information technology enhancements, nor does it offer substantial FTE savings from delayering or field structure reorganization. For example, INS states that it will automate some of its inspection tools and application processing operations, resulting in a savings of 85 FTE in 1996. As far as delayering, the Department states that it is conducting a major field study that will "examine possible areas of fragementation or duplication among field offices." In general, when DOJ references a streamlining initiative, whether enhancing automation, delayering or shifting staff from administrative roles to the front line, they leave out specific, substantial associated savings. The plan delays the bulk of reductions -- and the hard decisions -- until the outyears. For example, the plan for the FBI provides few specifics and delays over 1,300 of its cumulative 1,850 FTE reduction allocation to FY 1999. The Justice Department has made some improvements to its initial streamlining submission, but the plan does not bring DOJ resources in line with OMB ceilings for budget authority, outlays, or FTE. The new plan is filled with references to studies that will be undertaken to determine if streamlining measures are appropriate and what savings, if any, might be realized. The plan relies heavily on steps already taken or in progress, such as the transfer of agents to the field or establishment of a single office to coordinate the FBI and the DEA. The Department continues to assert that due to its responsibilities under the crime bill it will be unable to meet resource ceilings under any reasonable set of circumstances. The plan does not meet the NPR goal of 50% reduction in headquarters staff. The U.S. Marshals, Bureau of Prisons (BOP) and Executive Office for Immigration Review plan reductions ranging from 16% to 42% in accounting, auditing, budget and personnel staff. But most components do not reflect any reductions in headquarters staff. The plan makes only passing reference to procurement reform. Under the plan, the Department never reaches NPR's target supervisory ratio of 1:15. By 1999, the Department reaches only 1:8.5. RECOMMENDATIONS Each of these recommendations is explained in greater detail in subsequent exhibits: DOJ could privatize new low and minimum security prisons coming on line in 1996. (See Issue Paper on Prisons) DOJ could redirect resources to higher level crime fighting and crime-fighting technology improvements. (See Exhibit 10 on FTE Growth) III-4 RECOMMENDATIONS, con't. DOJ could reduce the need for prison hiring by linking prosecution policy to incarceration policy. (See Exhibit 10 on FTE Growth) DOJ could aggresively delegate civil litigation to attorneys based in other agencies. (See Exhibit 10 on FTE Growth) KEY FEATURES OF PLANS AND DISCUSSION BOP would decrease prison overcrowding from 132% now to 115% by 1999; however, this would fall short of BOP's goal of no overcrowding by 1999. This would result in a savings of 1,328 FTE annually. This number is largely due to constructing fewer prisons in the outyears. The plan does not addess consolidating administrative personnel outside of prison facilities, a measure that would save FTE. The U.S. Marshals have made the firmest commitment to take specific steps to reduce workyear consumption on a non-trivial basis. The Service will save 141 FTE annually by eliminating all intermittent Deputies and temporary staff. Through normal attrition, the Service will reduce its headquarters staff by 159 FTE on an annual basis. The INS and BOP will "explore" privatization of detention facilities as an FTE savings measure. However, BOP remains basically opposed to privatizing anything other than detention facilities. Privatization of prison facilities would save FTE if DOJ--and BOP in particular--would commit to this effort. See "Recommendation" section. DOJ is developing an Automated Booking Station that will speed prisoner processing, improve utilization of law enforcement data and track an offender through the entire criminal justice system. However, DOJ does not link this proposal or many of its other automation proposals to any substantial FTE reductions. The recently created Office of Investigative Agency Policies (OIAP) (under Director Freeh) coordinates criminal investigative agencies. DOJ has highlighted the creation of this office as a streamlining measure, but it may be simply an additional layer of bureaucracy. DOJ's plan lists "potential" areas for consolidation of procedures in addition to the OIAP, but lists very few actual savings. The INS and the Customs Service are establishing joint performance standards to measure and track effectiveness of cross- designations and to maximize staffing.

III-13 OPTION 2: DOJ Requests: -- Opening in 1996 all 12 facilities currently scheduled for opening in 1996. Assume no significant slippages. -- Continuing to staff all prisons with Federal employees. -- Complete funding for those new construction projects for which design funding was provided in 1996. DESCRIPTION OF ISSUE: The three basic components of the prison issue that require decisions for the 1996 Budget: (1) funding levels for opening new prisons in 1996; (2) whether to save dollars and/or FTE by privatizing all or part of the operations of prisons under construction but not yet opened; and (3) how much the 1996 Budget should propose for new prison construction. Funding levels: The Bureau of Prisons (BOP) has sustained huge increases in prisoner population, requiring increasingly large amounts of resources to house and feed. Over $2B has been provided for the construction of new prison space since 1990. About 30 new prisons have already been funded and are in various stages of completion in the 1995-1996 period. Over the next five years these prisons are scheduled to incarcerate over 28,500 additional inmates, expanding Federal prison space by about 35%. The costs of opening these prisons is considerable because it requires not only equipping the new prisons but it also requires staffing, training and other related personnel costs. In 1996 Justice has requested $195M to open twelve facilities near completion. Also, $177M is required in 1996 to annualize the costs of facilities that will be opened in 1995. Privatization: The companion issue to the costs of opening these 30 prisons is the FTE requirements. These 12 prisons alone require over 2,400 new FTE by 1997. To help meet the overall requirement to reduce the Federal workforce, contracting out the operations of these and other yet-to-be-opened prisons would, in the view of OMB staff, achieve both-funding and FTE savings. Construction: The last part of the prison question is new prison construction beyond the 30 new facilities already funded. ANALYSIS AND RECOMMENDATIONS: Funding levels: BOP has been slow to open new prisons for which construction funding has been provided. On average, prison openings are delayed over 9 months compared to the estimates provided in the annual DOJ budget submissions. The PAD recommendation to "delay" the opening of the prisons more realistically reflects that new prisons scheduled to open in the last half of the fiscal year will probably slip to 1997. The 1996 savings compared with the DOJ request, is $98M. The recommendation is not intended to keep prisons from opening. Rather, it represents a technical reestimate. The risk, of course, is that prisons that are ready to open could stand vacant for up to six months. III-14 Privatization: Many States have contracted with private firms specializing in incarceration. Their experience indicates that private operation of Federal prisons may cost up to 20% less than staffing the prison with Federal employees. (See attached discussion paper on this topic.) BOP is a very traditional organization that believes the culture it has created and the security it has sustained would be vulnerable if operations were to be contracted out. It contends that its good management record for sentenced prisoners stems from an almost military point of view that all staff are corrections officers foremost, and it is following the prescribed rules and regulations that ensure discipline and order. Accordingly, BOP strongly resists privatizing the operations of new prisons. Under pressure to streamline, BOP has agreed to a pilot privatization of one new detention facility rather than privatize any of the 30 new prison opening in the next several years to house sentenced inmates. BOP would prefer privatization detention space, in part, because it believes that its primary mission is securing sentenced prisoners. BOP fears that some of its good management record may be imperiled if prison operations are contracted out. (Note: Detention space houses inmates prior to their sentencing. As a result, detention spaces are not grouped by security levels as in regular prisons, and different population management issues are involved.) The argument for privatization is based on dollar and FTE savings, and is not intended to reflect on BOP's operations. It is true that BOP has an excellent record in population management. The PAD recommendation is to request BOP to contract out the staffing of all minimum and low security prisons that are due to open between 1996 and 1999. The FTE savings by the year 2000 would be about 4,000 FTE. These reductions are assumed in the PAD FTE recommendations. No funding reductions are yet assumed, however. Medium and high security prison would be excluded from this mandate. DOJ/BOP is likely to react strongly and negatively to this recommendation. Construction: As stated above, BOP has 30 new prisons in the pipeline. In the past several years, some construction projects have been recommended in the budget with two stage funding: architecture and design funding, followed a year later with construction funding. The 1995 Budget recommend two of these projects (in California, $108M and in Texas, $65M). No new federal prisons would be presumed for 1997-2000. Comparatively, DOJ requests five new facilities costing nearly $300M.

FY 1996 DOJ Request TCJ Recomm Mandatory Adjustments 280 219 The mandatory adjustments are largely the full year costs of the 1995 enacted level for opening new prisons in 1995. The full year costs of the $120M for opening prisons in 1995 is $177M. The remaining increases are mainly for inflation ($20M) and a separate inflation amount for increases in contract and other medical costs. The large full second year costs of opening a prison is a result of delaying the opening until late in the fiscal year, and paying the full amount in the second year. Although it creates false savings in the first year, the second year effect is uncontrollable. Population Increase 15 15 This cost is based on a prisoner population increase of 8,700, from 91,890 in 1995 to 100,627 in 1996. BOP estimates of population growth have been quite accurate over the past several years. The current population is nearly 87,000. All Activations 195 97 The $98M reduction assumes 8 six month delay in activations. The BOP track record has been quite poor on estimating the timing of construction completion.

III-18 Brad Kyser Mark Wasserman PRIVATIZATION OF PRISONS AND DETENTION CENTERS Summary Based on experience of States and localities and a comparison of BOP and private contractor costs, contracting out the operation of the three detention centers and the 17 minimum and low security prisons (14,750 beds) that will be funded during FY 1996-99 could reduce outlays for these facilities by at least 20 percent and lower FTEs by 4,000. Privatization could be achieved while maintaining the current high quality of confinement. Trends in Privatization During the past decade, private firms have played a growing role in the operation of detention facilities and prisons. In 1983, the private prison industry did not even exist. By June 1994, private firms operated 40,329 beds in 78 secure adult correctional facilities in the United States. Rapid growth is expected to continue in the coming years as governments turn to private firms to provide prison space quickly and at a lower costs than the public sector [see chart]. By mid-1994, 19 firms provided private corrections. Correction Corporation of America (CCA) has the largest market share (30 percent of all privately operated beds), followed by Wackenhut Corrections (22 percent), a subsidiary of Wackenhut Corporation, the world's largest provider of security services, and Concept Inc. (11 percent). Industry revenues in 1994 are about $400 million. Typically, firms have upper management who have held high level positions in the corrections field, including a former director of the Bureau of Prisons, as well as former directors of state and military corrections systems and prison wardens at various governmental levels. Texas leads the privatization movement, with nearly 20,000 beds under private operation, followed by Florida (3,200) and Tennessee (3,000). Florida's privatization efforts will be expanded in the coming months as bids are solicited on proposals for four prisons with a total of 2,370 bed spaces. Other states are also likely to expand private operations of secure facilities next year. States and counties have contracted out the operation of detention and all levels of secure prison facilities: Although most of the privatized facilities are low security, contracts have been awarded to private firms to operate medium security prisons in Puerto Rico, Tennessee, Florida and Louisiana. Detention centers contain a variety of security levels, including maximum security cells, as does a privately operated women's prison in New Mexico. III-19 In contrast to States and localities, the Federal Government has restricted its use of privately operated secure facilities almost exclusively to detention facilities or INS processing centers. Only one Federal prison contract has been awarded, the 1,000 bed medium security INS/BOP prison at Eloy, Arizona that began operations in July 1994. Cost Savings It is likely that private firms can operate new prisons and detention centers less expensively than the Federal government. That conclusion is based on comparisons of the costs of recent private prison contracts of States with BOP prison costs as well as evaluations of the cost-savings achieved from contracting in Texas and Florida. Cost Comparisons: The attached table presents the operating costs for 14 private prisons in four states and the average operating cost for BOP facilities with comparable levels of security. The daily operating cost per prisoner for medium security privately operated prisons ranges from $23 to $45. The average FY 1993 BOP cost of confinement for all medium security prisoners was $42.72 plus an average BOP overhead of $8.67 per day for regional and central offices for a total of $51.39. Thus, the highest private sector contract for a new medium security facility ($45.24) is 12 percent less than the BOP cost for operating existing facilities when overhead is included. The daily operating cost per prisoner for low security prisons in the private contracts surveyed ranges from $26 to $30. By comparison, the average FY 1993 BOP cost was $43.69 plus $8.67 for overhead, for a total of $52.67. Thus, the highest cost in private contracts for operating a low security facilities ($29.58) is 44 percent less than those of BOP for existing low security prisons. -- The cost advantage in favor of private operation is even more favorable in a comparison of two similar security level prisons in the same geographic area. The BOP low security prison in Beaumont, Texas with 1,536 beds that will be opened in mid- 1996 has an average prisoner cost of $59 per day assuming no overcrowding. Concept Inc. will operate a 1,000 bed low security prison in Williamson County, Texas beginning in early 1995 at a daily cost to the state of $27. Additional costs that are hard to quantify are not included in the private contracts or in BOP cost figures. If they were included, the cost advantage would probably tilt even more in favor of the private contracts. On the one hand, private contracts still require governmental authorities to exercise supervision of the private contractor's performance. Typically, one or two prison oversight personnel are assigned to a privately operated prison to ensure appropriate performance by the contractor. On the other hand, average BOP costs do not include the full retirement outlays for their employees covered by the Federal Government Retirement Systems. These missing costs are estimated to be about 11 percent of CSRS employees' wages. In addition, retiree health benefits are not now counted anywhere in the budget but add another 4-5 percent to the wage and salaries of BOP employees. III-20 Texas and Florida Experience: The two States with the most private prison beds, Texas and Florida, require that private contracts achieve cost savings compared with state operation of at least 10 percent in the former state and seven percent in the later. The contracts awarded have actually achieved even greater savings. -- The Texas Sunset Advisory Commission studied contracts awarded to CCA and Wackenhut in 1988 for operation of two 500 bed minimum security prisons and concluded that "the private prisons were operating at close to 10 percent below the cost of a hypothetical equivalent unit run by the state." The savings were 14 percent after inclusion of the firms' tax payments to local governments. -- In Florida, 12 proposals were submitted in early 1994 for the two 750 bed medium security prison. Each proposal achieved at least the 7 percent cost savings. The two winning proposals, one by CCA and one by Wackenhut, each had a 10 percent cost saving, not including the tax payments to the state and local governments. On the basis of these and other cost comparisons, one recent analysis concluded that the evidence unequivocally demonstrates that -- presupposing it exercises reasonable judgment in the preparation of procurement documents, contract preparation, and contract monitoring -- government can realistically anticipate operating cost savings in the range of 10-20 percent by contacting with the added benefit of an improvement in the caliber of services it receives." [Charles Thomas, Private Adult Correctional Facility Census, seventh edition, June 30, 1994] FTE Savings from Privatization Three detention centers and 17 low and minimum security Federal prisons for which construction has been funded will open in 1996- 99 and will require funding for equipment and staff. BOP estimates that these facilities will require about 4,077 FTEs for the 14,763 beds. Assuming that BOP would have 77 supervisors overseeing the private contractors (a high estimate) privatization would still result in a savings of 4,000 FTEs. III-21 Quality of Confinement Discussions with corrections experts suggest that privatizing the 20 facilities would not strain the industry's ability to provide high quality management. That conclusion is based, in part, on the experience of the last 4-1/2 years when the number of beds under private contract increased by 30,000, a nearly four-fold rise. Although the evidence is limited, it appears that private firms have been able to provide lower cost incarceration than State and local governments without falling short on the quality of the services provided. According to the Private Adult Correctional Facility Census, June 1994, 32 percent of the 78 privately operated secure facilities in the United States have been accredited by the American Correctional Association and another 34 percent are in the process of obtaining accreditation or will do so when construction of the facility is completed. All of the 14 prisons surveyed in the attached cost table have or will obtain ACA accreditation. Studies comparing the quality of confinement in private and public facilities are few, but have been favorable to the private firms. A 1987-88 study conducted by the Urban Institute of two privately operated and two publicly operated facilities concluded that private facilities provided better quality confinement measured by a range of performance indicators. A 1992 study by Charles Logan of a private prison, a state prison and a Federal prison using the BOP Prison Social Climate Survey concluded that the private prison provided higher quality of confinement than either the State or Federal prisons. Reasons Not to Privatize Three plausible arguments might be made as to why the Federal government might not want to privatize the operation of prisons and detention centers. First, there has not yet been a thorough evaluation of cost savings that might be achieved by privatization. A preliminary evaluation by Justice (not yet officially released) provides limited evidence that private costs might be lower, but the analysis is far from complete and primarily relies on BOP costs of existing facilities rather than the costs of new facilities. On May 6, 1994, OMB requested the Assistant Attorney General for Administration to undertake a study of the savings that might be achieved by privatization, but no response has been forthcoming. Second, the evidence that private firms can provide high quality confinement, such as that currently provided by BOP, is even more limited. There have been very few such studies. The fact, however, that Texas and Florida have expanded their use of private contractors suggests that authorities in those states are satisfied with the cost and quality of service that they are purchasing. III-22 Third, it has been argued that, as a matter of principle, prison guards and administrators must be public employees. As one widely regarded expert wrote, "The administration of prisons and jails involves the legally sanctioned exercise of coercion by some citizens over others. This coercion is exercised in the name of the offended public. The badge of the arresting police officer, the robes of the judge, and the state patch of the corrections officer are symbols of the inherently public nature of crime and punishment." [John Dilulio, No Escape: The Future of American Corrections, 1992] It can be argued, however, that currently the Federal government uses privately operated detention centers, halfway houses and even a prison. What matters is not whether the employees of these institutions are on private or public payrolls. What matters is that they are properly carrying out the incarceration orders of the courts. A final reason for not privatizing the operation of Federal prisons is that such a change would be strenuously opposed by BOP and by unions. Both organizations would lose some of the jobs, power and control that accompany staffing of Federal correctional facilities. They would argue that BOP currently provides high quality of confinement in a cost-efficient manner. The single integrated structure of BOP assures uniformity of prisoner treatment throughout the Federal system. This single uniformity of treatment could not be assured, it could be argued, if some prisoners and prisons were managed by private firms while others were managed by BOP. Conclusion Privatization of the operation of new Federal prisons and detention centers can reduce spending, as well as FTEs, while delivering high quality confinement. Privatization, however, will require a change in the goals of the BOP. It would need to relinquish the responsibility for directly operating these prisons and take on the new role of overseeing, evaluating, and, if need be, correcting the operations of private contractors. Based on the experience and evidence available, considerable benefits can be realized by privatizing future BOP facilities.

PAD recommends only the VCRTF component. OPTION 1: PAD RECOMMENDATION Cuts Byrne grants by $190M from 1995 enacted. $260M is provided for the formula portion of the program to allow States to continue support of top priority enforcement programs, particularly law enforcement task forces. The $260M is provided from the VCRTF and fully funds the Byrne authorization contained in the Crime bill. $50M is provided to support the discretionary component of the program to allow the AG to continue development of innovative crime and drug control programs. OPTION 2: AGENCY REQUEST The request funds the formula program at $450M, last year's appropriated level. $100M is requested for discretionary grants (+$50M over 1995 enacted). The request is intended to avoid Congressional criticism by funding the formula grants at last year's level and provide the AG additional resources to support innovative crime control programs (discretionary increase). III-26 DESCRIPTION OF ISSUE: In the FY 1995 budget, the Administration proposed the virtual elimination of the Byrne formula program. Its non-targeted nature, the provision of $1.7B for the Community Policing/100,000 Cops program, and tight budget constraints made Byrne grant cuts logical in order to meet 1995 DOJ funding ceilings. Congress did not take kindly to the Byrne elimination proposal. The main Congressional concern was the lack of support for multi-jurisdictional law enforcement task forces. These task forces (about $130M annually) are particularly popular in rural areas. In the end, the 1995 CJS Appropriations bill appropriated $450M for formula grants, a +$92M increase over the 1994 level and +$375M over the President's request. The Department of Justice is very wary of again proposing a reduction in the Byrne program. DOJ thinks it unfairly got "beat up" in appropriations hearings and therefore, will vehemently oppose a reduction in Byrne funding in 1996. Finally, because of the anti-drug focus of these grants, ONDCP has been a strong supporter of the program. PERFORMANCE INFORMATION AND BACKGROUND: Formula Grant Portion In 1995, $450M was appropriated for the Byrne program to provide formula grants to States. All states receive a minimum allocation with the remaining resources distributed based on population. A percentage of these grants must be used for local projects in each State. Although much discretion is given to the States in how to use grant monies, formula grant resources primarily fund programs that include: - crime and drug task forces (37%) - corrections/drug treatment (16%) - demand reduction/crime prevention (9%) - improved information/technology (8%) The formula grant program evaluation currently focuses on ensuring that States develop and/or enhance their capacity to monitor, measure, and evaluate the impact of Byrne dollars on their State-wide drug strategies. IG reports have consistently concluded, however, that the extent of the evaluation program is inadequate. Other than ensuring that States are spending Byrne grant dollars in ways consistent with authorizing statutes, DOJ itself does little in the way of effectiveness measurement or evaluation for III-27 the Byrne program as a whole. Since extensive flexibility is given to States in their use of formula grants, comparing the effectiveness of funding between individual programs and even among States would be difficult. Discretionary Portion The remaining $50M is used to support new and proven innovative programs that can have a nationwide effect on State and local criminal justice systems. Extensive Congressional earmarking, however, has always limited the ability of the AG to effectively use these grants. Approximately 50-60% of the funding is used to continue projects initiated in previous years. Remaining funds are used to address emerging problems and promote a national crime/drug strategy. Some examples of discretionary programs funded in 1995 are "Weed and Seed", intermediate sanctions/corrections options, and drug prevention and education programs. As the purpose of discretionary Byrne grants is to evaluate and promote programs which have a national impact on criminal justice systems, the discretionary program has been much more successful at developing performance measures from which to evaluate programs. The measures are generally small in scale and pertain only to the individual program being funded. ANALYSIS/RECOMMENDATION: Similar to last year, the budget environment within the Department of Justice suggests reducing the Byrne program. This year the pressure may be even greater, insofar as Justice is having excessive problems meeting its funding ceilings. Perhaps more importantly, the Crime bill supports a wide variety of programs which largely replicate those traditionally funded through Byrne. For example, the PAD recommendations for the VCRTF provide for $3.0 billion in new law enforcement assistance grants and $240 million for drug courts, prison treatment, and rural drug enforcement. The PAD recommendation attempts to diffuse Congressional and Department objections to reducing Byrne grants by proposing $260M for the formula grants and $50M for the discretionary grants. Simply, the PAD recommendation represents OMB staff's belief of the minimum resources necessary for Byrne to avoid excessive criticism of the Administration.

Note: Although this paper only deals with FBI, DEA would receive comparable budget treatment. III-29 DESCRIPTION OF ISSUE: In 1995, the Administration provided modest funding increases over 1994 enacted levels to the DEA and FBI (less than 5%). These increases translated into FTE reductions for both agencies because DOJ insisted that it needed to increase substantially facilities and equipment for its staff. Congressional action restored virtually all the Administration's reductions and provided significant funding and FTE enhancements as well. The 1995 CJS Appropriation Conference Report specifically provided for FTEs comparable with peak agent levels reached in 1992. Overall, Congress provided an increase of approximately 970 FTE in FBI and 284 FTE in DEA over proposed 1995 levels. The Department of Justice was roundly criticized for this "lack of support for Federal law enforcement." Attached is a letter from Rep. Mollohan, Chairman of the House CJS Appropriations Committee, summarizing Congressional sentiment regarding the preparation of the 1996 Federal law enforcement budget. PERFORMANCE INFORMATION: The FBI and DEA have started development of performance measures but have little information currently available for analysis. Traditionally, Federal law enforcement has focused on numbers of arrests as the central measurement of performance. As these old measures are simply functions of the resources put into law enforcement, they tell us little about the effectiveness of law enforcement programs. Much additional work is needed. Unfortunately, during budget hearings, FBI provided only a lukewarm response when asked about future efforts to measure performance in law enforcement. DEA was slightly more receptive. Currently, FBI and DEA have pilot programs (four and one, respectively) participating in the GPRA pilot initiative. In general, their efforts have been successful. However, the pilots represent the smaller service-oriented functions of the agencies, such as laboratory services. As these service-oriented functions represent only a small portion of the agencies, they are only minimally important when measuring overall agency performance. The larger question, how to measure the performance of agencies with as broad a mandate as Federal law enforcement, still remains largely undeveloped. ANALYSIS/RECOMMENDATIONS: The issue at hand pits many of the reinventing government initiatives promoted by the Administration against the realities of appearing strong against crime. The FBI does not feel that government-wide funding or FTE ceilings should apply to them. On numerous occasions, Director Freeh has expressed the view that the 1995 President's Budget for FBI was insufficient. He believes that successful crime fighting is not consistent with the previously mentioned Administration priorities. His argument is simple -- crime must be addressed and the FBI is the one to do it. III-30 FBI Request: $122M is requested for FBI operation of an advanced telephony program. This program includes R&D and equipment for telephony and related costs. The program is requested to allow law enforcement continued capability to conduct wiretaps, one of the most effective law enforcement investigative techniques. Recent technology changes in the telecommunications industry have made wiretaps difficult. The $122M initiative supports new FBI R&D and equipment purchases to overcome this problem, but not a reimbursement of the telecommunications industry for equipment modifications, as authorized in the recently passed digital telephony legislation. A detailed description of the telephony issue is contained in the attachment to this paper. Given the difficulty in accurately determining FBI needs due to future technological changes, $16M in unused carryover balances for telephony, and the flexibility to reprogram within the DOJ, a scaled back initiative appears justified. PAD REC: $45M for telephony related costs. The FBI is also requesting $112M and 216 FTE for an infrastructure initiative to hire more support staff, purchase computer workstations and automobiles, and improve its foreign language program. The FBI argues that it has insufficient support staff to maximize the effectiveness of its agents. However, within the law enforcement community, the FBI has one of the highest support staff-to-agent ratios. The addition of numerous support staff is also inconsistent with the Administration's streamlining intentions. PAD REC: $18M for improved automation/computers and other small technology initiatives. The final major FBI initiative includes $27M and 126 FTE (largely agent FTE) to combat emerging Eastern European organized crime (EEOC). A small portion of the request would be used to support the establishment of a Legal attache office in Beijing. Recent statements from Director Freeh, and in a more limited manner from the President (September 24th in front of the General Assembly of the United Nations and October 17th to the International Chiefs of Police Conference in Albuquerque) have highlighted U.S. interest to increase the focus on international criminal groups. Realistically, however, this focus on EEOC could be accomplished by the FBI through an internal reprogramming of resources. EEOC is really no different than white collar crime, South American drug gangs, or Italian crime syndicates. As there is no loss for crime to fight, the EEOC initiative should be analyzed in tandem with the other crime programs and within the context of overall funding available for Federal law enforcement. Also, as approximately $44M and 300 FTE were allocated by the FBI to combat EEOC from the 1995 Congressional enhancement, the FBI appears to have sufficient growth to successfully incorporate the targeting of EEOC into current operations. PAD REC: $OM. The FBI has been very opposed to implementing any kind of streamlining which reduces overall funding or FTE levels. The FBI believes in reengineering existing practices and reinvesting any savings or efficiencies into ongoing operations. A prime example of this III-31 belief is last year's initiative to reallocate 600 agents from headquarters to the field. Following this action, the FBI argued for additional support FTE to fill the vacated headquarters positions. Congress provided the FTE. FBI has discussed but not committed to any further streamlining savings proposals. PAD REC: Imposes a -$74M and -480 FTE streamlining allowance on the FBI. VCRTF Impact on the Requests: $63M of the above initiatives are recommended from the VCRTF. The VCRTF would support major initiatives including: $40M for advanced telephony, a $5M DNA initiative, and $18M for various other programs authorized in the Crime Bill. III-32 ATTACHMENT TO ISSUE #3 Discussion of Digital Telephony Problem Telecommunications systems and networks are universally used by the criminal element for the furtherance of criminal activities. In turn, one of the most effective tools in the investigation of crime by Federal, State, and local law enforcement agencies is Title III court-authorized electronic surveillance or "wiretaps". Since 1968, Federal law enforcement agencies have had the authority, as an investigative tool of last resort, and with judicial approval, to conduct wiretaps. As telecommunications signal technology remained relatively constant over the years (analog technology), law enforcement had little trouble intercepting communication signals. However, the recent introduction of faster, cheaper, and more efficient digital technology by the telecommunications industry has made communications much more difficult and expensive to intercept. Following an extensive review of the potential difficulties of conducting wiretaps within the limitations of the new digital technology, the Administration proposed legislation to mandate that the telecommunications industry assist law enforcement in ensuring wiretap capabilities. The Digital Telephony and Communications Privacy Improvement Act of 1994 passed Congress in early October, after extensive negotiations with industry. The Act requires telecommunications carriers to provide for law enforcement access to the content and origin of targeted communications, in an unobtrusive manner, so targets are not made aware of the interception. The Act allows industry the flexibility to develop the standards to implement this requirement. In addition, the Act expands privacy and security protection for telephone and computer communications. In recognition of the fact that some existing equipment, services or features will have to be retrofitted by the industry to ensure continued wiretap capability, the legislation provides that the Federal government compensate industry carriers for "just and reasonable costs" incurred in modifying existing equipment during a four year transition period following enactment of the bill. Following this transition period, industry is then responsible for the costs associated with meeting law enforcement wiretap needs. Specifically, the Act authorizes a total of $500 million for fiscal years 1995, 1996, 1997, and 1998 and "such sums as are necessary for each year thereafter" for this reimbursement purpose. III-33 The $500M reimbursement poses a special problem to the Administration. None of the interests involved in the telephony initiative, neither the intelligence nor law enforcement communities, wish to initiate funding requests for the $500 million reimbursement. Undoubtedly, they fear that requesting a large initiative like this would exacerbate the already heavy pressure on meeting funding and FTE ceilings. Currently, the FBI and DOJ refuse to even initiate discussions on how the $500M carrier reimbursement will be supported. In effect, they are saying that it is an OMB problem to find the resources. The PAD recommendation does not include this initiative within our ceilings for DOJ, nor can we find room to fund it given the many other law enforcement priorities. Preliminary estimates suggest approximately $230M is required for the reimbursement in 1996. The table below summarizes the estimated need for the reimbursement. PERFORMANCE INFORMATION: There is little doubt that the increasing use of digital technology will pose a threat to the ability of law enforcement to conduct court authorized wiretaps. with only the recent focus on the telephony issue, however, little performance information is available on the topic. As with performance measures in general for the FBI, OMB will need to continue pressure to ensure that appropriate measures are being developed in support of this initiative.

OLVER MASSACHUSETTS as PASTOR ARIZONA CARRIE P MEEK. FLORIDA Honorable Alice M. Rivlin Acting Director Office of Management and Budget Washington, D.C. 20503 Dear Ms. Rivlin: III-35 I am writing to ask for your personal assistance in ensuring that there will not be a repeat in fiscal year 1996 of, what I believe was, an ill advised decision in the fiscal year 1995 budget request to recommend reduced funding for Federal law enforcement. As you know, the Congress not only rejected the Administration's proposed reductions in fiscal year 1995, but provided sufficient funds for the FBI and DEA to restore agent staffing back up to the peak levels reached in 1992. The Congress also added funds above the request for the U.S. Marshals Service, U.S. Attorneys, and the Byrne Formula Grant Program. I would note that no other program in our appropriations bill received as much attention from other Members as did the Byrne Grants. Unfortunately, the funding to restore these law enforcement efforts came from other programs in the bill, including the President's Technology Initiatives. It was. a difficult decision, personally, to reduce funding for programs to produce high tech jobs; however, there was no support whatsoever for the proposed reductions to Federal law enforcement. I can appreciate the difficulty you face in balancing the overall Federal discretionary budget; however, I can not emphasize enough the critical importance of maintaining the funding levels for our Federal law enforcement agencies. The men and women on the front line of our efforts against drugs and violent crime must receive the necessary resources to perform their critical mission. Honorable Alice M. Rivlin September 28, 1994 Page 2 I want to congratulate you on your nomination. Like you, I am also in an "Acting" capacity, but I look forward to working with you. I hope that, together, we can find the means to continue the outstanding efforts of our law enforcement agencies. Sincerely, Alan B.

(See attachment 1 for separate discussion of the new BCF proposal and attachment 2 for summary of sources of funds and program levels). OPTION 1 Agency Request: DOJ requests $2,239M for INS. It requests +$144M and 299 FTEs in program increases for: border controls, asylum reform, criminal alien deportations, immigration status verification, training, research and development, and attorney pay increases. OPTION 2 PAD Recommendation: PAD recommends $2,197M for INS. This is a 3% increase over its 1995 appropriations and a 25% increase over its 1994 budget. It includes +$136M and 434 FTEs in program increases for the following three major initiatives in 1996: (see analysis/recommendation section for discussion) I. +$98M to strengthen border management and enforcement efforts through personnel, automation, and equipment enhancements. II. +$19M to deport an additional 16,400 criminal aliens and link State and local law enforcement agencies with INS. III. +$19M to remove up to 20,000 aliens denied asylum and deter organized crime and alien smuggling rings. III-39 DESCRIPTION OF ISSUE: Immigration is and will continue to be a "hot button" issue. The 104th Congress is expected to focus even more attention on immigration problems. The September 30th Jordan Commission Immigration report highlighted employer verification and border security issues which the Administration will need to continue addressing in the next few months. The Administration has requested, and Congress has provided, sizable increases for immigration activities. In 1995, the President proposed major immigration initiatives to improve border controls, reform asylum, deport criminal aliens, expand employer sanctions investigations, and promote naturalization. Congress appropriated most of the President's requested increases for immigration initiatives ($255M) through the Violent Crime Reduction Trust Fund (VCRTF). PERFORMANCE INFORMATION: INS has lacked adequate performance measures to assist in its improvement efforts. While it is making some efforts to identify better performance indicators and to quantify outcomes based on resources provided, these efforts are still in the beginning stages. Historical data for analysis is lacking. INS is focused on developing measurements on how it is doing with regard to management coordination with Customs, asylum adjudication, and illegal migration prevention efforts. A recent study by a University of Texas research team provided for the first time a comprehensive review of border controls, linking INS activities to outcomes. This team studied the results of "Operation Hold the Line" in El Paso (400 additional agents were provided through overtime funds to strengthen deterrence efforts along the El Paso/Juarez area) in terms of levels of illegal crossings, local crime rate, pressures on ports, etc. The study suggests that this operation was successful in reducing the ability of routine illegal crossers to penetrate the border patrol "line" and in reducing the level of petty crimes associated with illegal aliens in the El Paso area. However, the study suggests that the operation was not as effective in deterring the illegal crossings of longer term migrants who travel beyond the border area. The study also suggests that the operation's effectiveness is reduced over time. INS' recently established Policy Division is in the process of contracting out with independent researchers to evaluate "Operation Gatekeeper" in San Diego (an operation similar to the El Paso experiment in pursuing the goal of "deterrence through prevention" but with a different concentration of resources to take into account the different terrain and crossing patterns in the San Diego/Tijuana area). This operation was announced by the Attorney General in September 1994. The independent analysis is expected to be completed by April, 1995. III-40 ANALYSIS/RECOMMENDATION; The PAD recommendation for INS' 1996 budget continues the Administration's strong commitment to immigration as a priority issue. The 1996 funding initiatives total $136M ($107 of this amount is requested by DOJ and $29M is a PAD initiative) in program increases and are focused on strengthening INS' immigration law enforcement capabilities in the following areas: I. Enhancing Border Management and Immigration Law Enforcement: +$98M. A. 350 New Border Patrol Agents and New Equipment ($30M from BCF). Illegal crossings at the SW borders are considered to be the number one immigration problem, especially for border States such as California and Texas. The Administration has sought significant resources to strengthen border controls with personnel, automation and equipment. The 1994 and 1995 enhancements (+1,000 new agents, modern encrypted voice radios, fingerprint identification system, etc.) have enabled INS to put in place "Operational Hold the Line" in El Paso, "Operation Gatekeeper" in San Diego, and "Operation Safeguard" in Arizona. In 1996, PAD recommends creating an elite and mobile Special Border Patrol Corp through the hiring of 350 new agents (+$29M) to focus especially on high risk crossing points in between areas where current enforcement operations are underway. (This is a PAD initiative -- DOJ did not request funding for new agents in 1996.) PAD also recommends purchase of 370 sensors and 6 night vision viewing devices (+$1M) to help agents locate and track illegal entrants more efficiently. B. 100 New Inspectors (+$5M from BCF). The major enforcement operations at SW borders have increased incidence of illegal crossers attempting to enter through ports using fraudulent documents. (El Paso ports saw a 520% increase in fraud intercepts right after the Operation Hold the Line began in September 1993. By March 1994 this leveled off to a 67% increase in intercept rates). These new inspectors are expected to increase INS' ability to scruntinize border crossing documents carefully to prevent unauthorized entries and at the same time faciliate the inspections process to better serve legal entrants. C. 1,010 Additional Detention Bedspaces (+$17M from BCF). Apprehended aliens should not be released to the community if the border control strategy is to present an effective deterrence against further illegal immigration. Because of shortage of detention space, INS currently releases aliens who would otherwise be held while awaiting deportation. These aliens are likely to abscond prior to their deportation hearings. Over 1,000 INS detention bedspaces are not used currently due to inadequate operational funds. By making 1,010 additional bedspaces available with $17M, INS could detain an additional 15,000 apprehended aliens annually. III-41 D. Automation Enhancements (+$46M from VCRTF and mandatory appropriations). Resources will be allocated to develop and deploy systems used to process apprehended illegal aliens, enhance overall access to INS' corporate database, and modernize INS' infrastructure. New technology will enhance border enforcement also at the airports and overseas visa issuance offices which are as critical as gaining control over the SW borders for the purposes of controlling illegal immigration. INS estimates that computerized processing systems can eventually improve overall administrative efficiency by 75%, thereby freeing Border Patrol agents and others to concentrate on critical enforcement activities. II. Tracking and Deporting Criminal Aliens: +$19M. A. Institutional Hearing Program (+$15M from VCRTF). INS can save detention resources and ensure immediate removal of criminals by processing these aliens for deportation while they serve their sentences in Federal, State or local incarceration facilities. The estimated numbers of removals are: 6,000 in 1994, 13,000 in 1995, and 16,400 in 1996. B. Law Enforcement Service Center (+$4M from VCRTF), The pilot project started in July 1994 to allow Arizona State to access INS databases to check on the status of aggravated felons. In 1996, INS plans to expand this service to law enforcement agencies nationwide. This system will enable INS to quickly identify and track criminal aliens and to ensure their expedited removal through the Institutional Hearing Program. III. Deterring Asylum Abuse and Alien Smuggling: +$19M. A. Removal of Denied Asylum Applicants (+$10M from VCRTF). Regulatory reform and 1995 resource enhancements will enable INS to double its ability to adjudicate asylum cases by the end of 1995. As asylum cases are completed, those denied asylum need to be removed to ensure the integrity of the asylum system and to act as a deterrence measure. New resources will support the removal of up to 20,000 aliens denied asylum. B. Disruption of Organized Crime and Alien Smuggling Rings (+$9M from mandatory appropriations). Overseas organized crime organizations threaten our border integrity by smuggling aliens through the use of fraudulent travel documents. These activities are on the rise because of their tremendous profit potential. INS is an active participant in efforts with other US government offices, airline officials, and host country governments to pursue an international immigration law enforcement strategy to identify, deter, and reduce illegal activities. PAD does not recommend funding requested increases for the following INS initiatives: training (+$6M), attorney pay (+$8M), research and development (+$2M), and the Verification for Immigration Status (VIS) system (+$1M). PAD strongly recommends funding the research and development and VIS programs from the INS base. III-42 Attachment 1 Border Investment Program/Border Crossing Fee Proposal Problem Statement/Potential Solution Growth in legal and illegal cross-border traffic is taxing existing border infrastructure and law enforcement capabilities. This problem is expected to grow, in part as a result of NAFTA. Investments by INS and Customs in agents, inspectors, equipment, automation, and infrastructure, would address the problems at the border caused by the growth in cross-border traffic. These investments could help stem illegal immigration, facilitate cross-border commerce and foster economic growth, and reduce cross-border drug smuggling. (See below table for an illustrative listing of the potential components of a border investment program.) Possible Financing Source It would be difficult to fund a substantial new border investment program under the caps. However, a border crossing fee could collect $200 to $500 million annually to support needed border investments when fully implemented in 1998. A $1 per vehicle or pedestrian would collect $200 million in gross revenues; a fee of $3 per car; and $1.50 per pedestrian would collect $500 million. INS and Customs already collect user fees for other purposes. Charging a fee is consistent with the principle applied to other public infrastructure financing, i.e., facility users support a portion of construction, operation, and upkeep, through tolls or other charges. Support/Opposition A border investment program has received support from Sen. Feinstein, Simpson and Reid; the Congressional Border Caucus; the Jordan Commission on Immigration Reform; and the NEC's Task Force on Border Infrastructure and Facilitation. All, except for the Border Caucus endorsed a border crossing fee or similar innovative funding source. In general, Californians support the fee proposal because they are primarily concerned about illegal immigration. Texans object the proposal because they are concerned about cross-border commerce. III-43 Treasury opposes the fee because they foresee an adverse economic impact on border communities, operational difficulties in its implementation, and political concerns. State Department believes the imposition of a fee would negatively impact on our relationships with Mexico and Canada, and result in reciprocal fees. Potential Components of a 1996 Border Investment Program (in millions of dollars) INS: - 350 new Border Patrol agents $30 - 100 new INS inspectors 5 - 1,010 detention bedspaces to detain 15,000 apprehended aliens 16 Subtotal, INS $51 Customs: - Automation to speed inspections $15 - Construct new inspection lanes at land ports 21 - New inspectors to man 20 new lanes Subtotal, Customs $56 TOTAL $107 Note: In 1996, net receipts are estimated to be $107M for the $3 per car/$1.50 per pedestrian fee after $ 100M in start up costs. Proposed INS components are described in more detail in the Analysis/Recommendation section of this issue paper.

Req. FTE 97,230 101,940 103,511 103,800 110,110 107,046 -3,064 OPTION 1: Agency Request: The Agency requests a total increase of approximately 6,600 workyears over 1995 and 6,300 above ceiling. Includes 4,200 to annualize FTE associated with initiatives funded in 1995, including 2,473 FTE associated with prisons. The major programmatic workyear increases would staff 1996 newly activated prisons (+750 FTE for Federal Prisons); increased investigation of emerging organized crime and increased law enforcement support staff (+383 FTE for the FBI); increased prosecution of violent crime, health care fraud, and affirmative civil litigation (+245 FTE for the U.S. Attorneys); and strengthening border management and establishing an institutional hearing program to expedite removal of criminal aliens from Federal and State prison (+272 FTE for the INS). OPTION 2: PAD Recommendation: The staff recommendation would hold FTE to aggregate 1995 levels in most accounts other than those in the prison system (annualizations and 414 in new FTE, associated primarily with staffing up newly constructed prisons) and the Immigration and Naturalization Service (annualizations and 434 new FTE, most of which is associated with staffing up the Border Patrol). This would mean few workyear program increases for the FBI and the DEA. III-47 For the outyears, option 2 assumes substantial savings through aggressive and dramatic actions to restructure the Department and control workyear consumption. The staff assumes incremental savings of 500 workyears each year, beginning in 1997. We also assume that the Department would privatize most bankruptcy trustee functions, beginning in 1997. By the year 2000, the savings would be 2,000 FTE, compared to a rising FTE baseline. Major categories of savings would include: Shifting resources to pursue only Federal interests: curtailing efforts against low-level, ordinary crime where concurrent State and Federal criminal jurisdiction exists. The Department would aggressively triage these cases, pursuing only those having truly Federal implications. For example, in 1992, of the 4,500 criminal fraud cases the U.S. Attorneys declined, they declined over 1,200 of them (26%) because of minimal Federal interest. Almost one-third of all Federal criminal cases involve controlled substances. But of the 3,900 drug possession or dealing cases declined, they declined only 178 (less than one-half of one percent) for this reason. Likewise, the U.S. Attorneys declined 12,000 of the cases referred to them by sources other than the Justice Department or the Secret Service. Of these, only 910 (7% and the most from any reported source) were declined for lack of a Federal stake. The Department's standards for a significant Federal interest may be so well understood by even those outside of the Federal law enforcement community that they rarely refer a case not meeting the standards. Alternatively, standards may be so low that Federal prosecutors are pursuing many cases that should proceed in State and local justice systems. An aggressive triage would reduce the number of Federal prisoners and result in processing a consistently higher level offender in the Federal criminal justice system. Considering prison capacity: reducing the need for prison hiring by linking prosecution policy to incarceration policy. The Department would adjust prosecution thresholds--which are not public--periodically to accommodate projected prison space Using attorneys in other agencies: aggressively delegating civil litigation--subject to Department control--to attorneys based in other agencies, and recasting the role of the Department's civil attorneys to controlling civil litigation and providing oversight and possibly training. Client agencies would internalize more of the cost of litigation and make efficient tradeoffs between litigation and other activities which accomplish their mission. This measure either could save or shift from the Department up to 1,000 FTE by 1999 Privatizing bankruptcy functions: privatizing the functions of the U.S. bankruptcy trustees, saving 1,000 FTE. OMB staff proposed this measure during the 1995 budget process. The Department is just initiating a study which would produce results sometime next year. Option 2 assumes privatization in 1997, saving 1,000 workyears. III-48 ANALYSIS: Federal prison staffing is the primary--but not the sole--engine driving Departmental FTE dramatically upward. Immigration initiatives and the recent crime bill will make meeting staffing targets even more difficult to reach. The Department has been very reluctant to commit to any measures to control growth. The Congress rejected staffing reductions the Administration proposed for 1995 and funded a net 1,640 FTE above the President's request. In particular, the Congress increased staffing above the 1995 President's request for the following bureaus partially offset by reductions in others: FBI (+1,470 FTE), DEA (+284 FTE), U.S. Attorneys (+161 FTE). See law enforcement issue paper. These increases are explicitly provided in the Commerce, Justice and State appropriations conference report narrative. Any effort to reduce the Federal crime control bureaucracy may make the Administration vulnerable to charges of being "soft on crime." However, policy responses which only increase the efficiency of current operations are highly unlikely to stem dramatic, long term FTE growth.

III-50 FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT IN THE DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE DOJ's progress in financial management is good. Out of six required 1992 audited financial statements, covering 13 percent of DOJ's total budget authority, four received unqualified audit opinions. Authority was provided to the working capital fund (WCF) to retain certain amounts to be used as a reliable funding source for essential financial management needs. The Department revised its strategy and will migrate bureaus one at a time to the Department's FMIS rather than phase (parallel) the implementation of modules. However, corrective action for older, pending management control problems should be accelerated. Accountable focal points are needed to coordinate the correction of high risk areas that cross organizational lines (specifically financial litigation enforcement).

Next steps: After a review of operational performance, CATS will be implemented nationwide throughout 1995. A formal post-implementation evaluation will be conducted in 1996. Also in 1995, steps will be taken to reach a feasibility decision regarding use of CATS to meet the asset tracking needs of the Customs Service. Work will also commence on development of a module in CATS to support Asset Forfeiture case tracking in U.S. Attorneys' Offices. Once CATS is fully implemented, a program of recurring analysis can be established to identify operational weaknesses, to project probable outcomes of various decision options, and to support new, outcome-based program performance measures.

Funding for new construction in 1995 will increase capacity by 6,984 beds. The BOP plan projects achieving design capacity of 107,429 beds by the end of 1999. Next steps: Resolution of this high risk area is predicated on availability and use of the funds provided in previous budgets. All funds are committed for construction projects, but are not technically "obligated" until a procurement award is made. These have been delayed by community opposition and/or environmental impact studies in some cases.

INS has made regulatory changes that mandated the major air and sea passenger carriers to report the user fees collected on a monthly basis to better assist INS in forecasting revenues due. INS has implemented the Debt Collection System (DCOS) in 1994 and recently in concert with Agriculture, Plant, Health Inspection service has entered into an agreement to jointly audit the air carriers and steamships for substantiation of user fee collection. As a result of a recent decision by DOJ to let INS seek its own core accounting system, a reimbursement agreement has been signed with the Financial Management Service of the Department of the Treasury to initiate a preliminary review of systems requirements. Next steps: (i) Further enhancements to DCOS (ii) Implement Bonds Management System (iii) Implement new accounting system. $2.1M for the above initiatives. III-55 U.S. Marshals Service (USMS): USMS keeps to its decision to migrate to the Department's Financial Management 2 inadequate financial management Information System (FMIS). In the past, USMS implemented a distributed budgeting system; non-conformance in fund module at headquarters and developed modifications to FMIS' general ledger and other control and asset value reporting. modules to meet USMS specific needs. During 1993 and 1994, district business practice reviews focusing on control matters were completed in a sample of districts, Accounting system processes $1B and a new separation of duties policy was issued. Other district business practices annually. As risk: assurance that funds reviews were performed, including some on fact witness program to develop new are accounted for in an accurate and procedures. timely fashion. Next steps: During 1995, complete requirements analysis, design and development, testing and recording, training and documentation, data conversion, and implementation of USMS field FMIS migration. USMS, INS and BOP: Shortage of In 1994, additional beds were provided for INS and USMS in a 300-bed contract facility 2 detention facilities. in Elizabeth, NJ and a 1,000 bed contract facility in Eloy, AZ. The USMS Cooperative Agreement Program funded 9,000 beds in 129 Federal court cities. 1994 budget provides $87M for detention facilities. As risk: ability to Next steps: USMS will continue to provide approximately 9,000 slots per year. BOP meet demands of increasing prisoner and INS will complete construction and expansion of a 300-bed facility in San population. Francisco, CA and a 250-bed facility in Buffalo, NY by 97-98, El Paso, TX and Krome, FL facilities by a total of 500 beds in 96-97, and Florence, AZ for 155 beds and El Centro, CA for 200 beds during 1995. III-56 INS and U.S. Customs Service: the The INS and Customs Service have undertaken a cooperative and coordinated effort to 2 dual management structure providing develop initiatives addressing the GAO concerns of ineffective border management. The land border inspections and clearance is initiatives include: coordinated shift scheduling and special operations, cross training, inadequate. joint performance standards and the development of port quality improvement committees. The Headquarters offices of both agencies have proposed to test these $150M to $180M spent annually by concepts at six ports of entry; Calexico, CA; Brownsville, TX; El Paso, TX; Eagle INS and Customs on land border Pass, TX; Nogales, AZ; and Port Huron, MI. These five initiatives are described inspection. At risk: impact on U.S. further below. economic and social welfare resulting from illegal entry of people and drugs To ensure that inspectors are evaluated on their cross-designated functions, the INS and and other contraband. USCS have developed a critical "cross-designated" element to be incorporated into performance appraisals. INS and USCS have developed a unified program of continuing training and education for cross-designated inspectors that enhances enforcement, facilitation, strengthens skills and increases knowledge. Next steps: In FY 95, 12 Federal law enforcement training center courses are proposed as combined training for INS and USCS. The three areas of training are: national refresher, national update, and local. The formal quality improvement committees to be established at ports of entry will be responsible for initiating, monitoring, and steering cooperative initiatives at the ports, with various tiers of management and the bargaining unit also involved. These committees have been established at the six test sites. The port directors and labor representatives were trained in TQM awareness, implementation, and problem-solving. After investigation of factors which facilitate and hinder coordinated shift scheduling, the INS/USCS working group developed guidelines for implementing it at 6 test sites in FY 95. Both agencies conduct special operations, using specialized teams, to accomplish their respective missions. INS and USCS have selected sites to test a coordinated approach and have surveyed field managers to identify existing procedures or special factors that may adversely impact cooperative special operations. Policy and procedures have been developed and tests have been conducted at two ports. III-57 INS and Justice components: asylum INS had over 400,000 backlogged asylum applications at the end of FY 94 and in FY 2 system is unable to process asylum 95, INS may receive an additional 10,000 applications per month. With the resource claims in a timely manner. enhancements received, the asylum corps will more than double from 150 to 334 officers. The number of Immigration judges will increase by approximately 80%, from 1994 budget provides $43.6M for 84 to 150. Once the reforms are fully in effect, the Asylum Corps will process a Justice asylum processing. At risk: projected 100,000 to 150,000 asylum applications. The Strategy includes a priority increasing vulnerability of asylum system to guide decisions about which individuals to detain. Publicity programs will be system to abuse by ineligible asylum developed to communicate the adverse consequences of illegal entry. A plan will be applicants. developed to offer and operate voluntary returns to the home country. A minimum number of cases at selected sites will be prosecuted and publicized. Involvement in interagency and intercountry coordination will be expanded. Use of video teleconferencing in expulsion and deportation hearings will be increased. The Department of Justice published a proposed rule on Asylum Reform on March 30, 1994. The INS and the Executive Office for Immigration Review have reviewed the comments submitted and have discussed revisions to the rule. Final changes are expected to be published by November 1994. Coupled with resource increases, the Asylum system is expected to be fully operational by the end of 1995. Next steps: The Asylum Office plans to upgrade computers and to install LANs to access information. This concept will be expanded to link district offices, EOIR offices, and asylum offices. With increased funding in FY 95, the asylum officer corps will be doubled. Customer service will be improved by the restoration of travel funds for "circuit rider" asylum officers to travel to interview applicants rather than requiring the applicants to travel to the asylum office for the interview. The Service Centers will increase the use of the automated system to identify persons in the deportation proceedings process to ensure that these persons are not also applying for asylum benefits. The speed and efficiency of the asylum application processing in Service Centers will be improved. The 1996 Budget includes a program increase of $10M to increase INS' ability to deport up to 20,000 aliens denied asylum.

C. 20530 September 22, 1994 The Honorable Alice M. Rivlin Acting Director Office of Management and Budget Washington, D.C. 20503 Dear Alice: I have the pleasure of submitting to you the 1996 budget request for the Department of Justice (DOJ). This 1996 budget totals $17.5 billion, of which $16.0 billion is for discretionary programs, including $4.287 billion in funding from the Violent Crime Reduction Trust Fund (VCRTF) ($440.8 million of which is for non-DOJ programs), to enable us to perform our critical missions for Fiscal Year 1996. This represents a $3.8 billion increase above the $12.2 billion in discretionary authority recently enacted by the Congress for the Department's 1995 appropriation. However, excluding the effects of the Crime bill, the vast majority of which supports State and local law enforcement programs, the actual growth for the Department from 1995 to 1996 in discretionary programs is $1.9 billion. Our 1996 budget request for discretionary programs reflects a $2.1 billion increase above the $13.9 billion planning ceiling for discretionary spending (including VCRTF funding) that was outlined in former Director Panetta's letter of April 21, 1994. A more detailed descriptive narrative and chart supporting this 1996 budget request are enclosed. In addition, a chart is enclosed which reflects the items in the Violent Crime Control and Law Enforcement Act that would be funded from the VCRTF. In view of the bi-partisan support the President has recently received from Congress for the historic passage of the Crime bill and the support Congress has also shown for DOJ within the 1995 appropriations act, this budget seeks to both maintain and build on the anti-crime momentum by providing resources for vital initiatives facing DOJ in 1996 and beyond. The Crime bill certainly provides valuable resources; however, as mentioned earlier, the bill largely funds State and local programs and does not meet many of DOJ's needs. In fact, for specific areas, the The Honorable Alice M. Rivlin 2 passage of the Crime bill drives us to increase our resources in 1996, outside those funded through the VCRTF. While $4.3 billion is funded of the $4.9 billion authorized in 1996 in the Crime bill -- 88 percent of the authorizations, we recognize that there is more than a $575 million difference between the 1996 authorizations contained in the Crime bill and the funding available in the VCRTF. Given this fact, we have, of course, allocated only what is available in the fund for VCRTF programs. Because the Crime bill is a top priority of the Administration, we believe that the Administration should search for full funding for all the programs authorized by the bill, including prevention programs, within the 1996 domestic discretionary ceiling. As you know, expectations regarding the Crime bill are very high, and funding the programs below the authorized levels may reinforce existing skepticism about the prospects of the Crime bill's success. At a rally on July 28, 1994, for the Crime bill in the Great Hall of the Main Justice Building, President Clinton clearly articulated the effect that crime has in all aspects of American society. The President said, "look at the cost of crime to the economy. Look at the cost of crime to our sense of community and to the idea that we are an American family. Look at the cost of crime to our efforts to empower every individual, including all these young people that are growing up in terribly difficult circumstances." There will be continuing demands upon and challenges to the Department beyond the Crime bill itself to which this 1996 budget request attempts to respond. While I recognize our budget request is above the 1996 ceiling set by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB), I firmly believe the initiatives within our request are consistent with the priority the President has placed on the Federal Government's anti-crime efforts. It should be noted that this budget request does not reflect the effects of our streamlining review currently being prepared. Our streamlining plan will be submitted to you by October 3, 1994, as per my staff's discussions with Christopher Edley. Furthermore, we are also sending you a list of reductions to our request that would get us down to the 1996 ceilings. In a brief form, I would like to summarize the five major initiatives included in our 1996 budget request, some of which would be funded from the VCRTF. For the Department's responsibilities regarding detention of unsentenced prisoners as well as incarceration of sentenced offenders, a total of $555 million is being requested. Of these funds, $195 million is being requested for activation of six new prison facilities and five prison expansions. The total number of beds that would be activated under this request is 9,197. The The Honorable Alice M. Rivlin 3 activation of new facilities as they are completed is critical to the effort of lowering overcrowding. As of August 25, 1994, the overcrowding rate was 36 percent above rated capacity. Using single bunking standards as done in the State systems, the Federal Prison System's overcrowding would exceed 70 percent. In acknowledgement of tight budget times, the Department has decided to amend its overcrowding goal to a rate of 15 percent, rather than the previous goal of 2 percent. To address long-term housing needs, and to support efforts to reduce overcrowding and provide adequate detention housing, $286 million is being requested for prison construction. The resources for prison construction would be used for new facilities in the Western region and at Beaumont, Texas. Further, $20 million is being requested for site acquisition and contract costs related to housing Federal detainees and sentenced inmates in Hawaii, $20 million for the Cooperative Agreement Program, and $20 million to fund construction of holding cells and related court house facilities required by the U.S. Marshals Service (USMS). In addition to costs related for sentenced prisoners, $14 million is being requested to support the number of jail days expected for 1996. In 1996, one of my top priorities will be continuance of existing and implementation of new comprehensive measures that protect against illegal immigration and promote legal immigration. A total of $148.6 million is being requested for four Immigration and Naturalization Service (INS) initiatives. These include: (1) strengthening border management; (2) reducing incentives for illegal immigration while improving delivery of customer services; (3) promoting professional development of INS personnel; and (4) continuing the Institutional Hearing Program (IHP) initiative. Under an initiative endorsed by the Director of Investigative Agency Policies, $78.1 million is requested for the Department's efforts, under the auspices of the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) and the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA), to maintain our ability to perform vital, court- authorized, Title III electronic surveillance intercepts. These efforts are performed within our Advanced Telephony Program. Continuing advances in the telecommunications industry have put law enforcement in a catch up position. Law enforcement agencies are already experiencing instances where an approved Title III could not be conducted because our equipment could not contend with today's technology. The Advanced Telephony Program needs this influx of resources to support continuing research, development and equipment acquisition in digital telecommunications. The Honorable Alice M. Rivlin 4 As a part of "reinventing" law enforcement, a goal of the National Performance Review, a total of $419.3 million is requested for infrastructure needs of our law enforcement agencies. Many of these infrastructure requests, such as automation, obviate the need to request full-time equivalent (FTE) workyears, which can be more costly over the long term. I believe we must give our law enforcement agents the tools necessary for them to do their jobs. These infrastructure needs of the Department for 1996 include the following: automated booking stations, Freedom of Information and Privacy Acts Document Processing System, tactical operations; Federal wireless communications and other radio system equipment upgrades; office automation in the FBI, DEA, INS, and the USMS, as well as the Justice Consolidated Office Network (JCON) i automobiles; antenna lease sites; contract linguists; and deoxyribonucleic acid testing research and development in the FBI Laboratory, among others. In support of State and local law enforcement, an additional $1.107 billion is requested. We are seeking continuation of the $450 million funding level provided for the Edward Byrne formula grants in 1995 ($260 million of which will come from the VCRTF) and an increase of $50 million in Edward Byrne discretionary grants. We are seeking an enhancement of $42.5 million in juvenile justice program funding. In addition, our request includes an increase of $220 million for the State Criminal Alien Assistance Program (SCAAP), all from the VCRTF. As you may recall, the Administration submitted a 1995 amendment of $350 million for SCAAP; however, Congress provided only $130 million in the 1995 appropriation. Other program increases cover programs authorized through the Violent Crime Control and Law Enforcement Act programs, most of which were funded in 1995. But over $193 million is requested for authorized programs that were not funded in 1995. I would like to call your attention to two new exhibits, to be included in some of our detailed budget submissions, that respond to the emphasis OMB is placing on performance information detailed in your August 5, 1994, memorandum and the Circular A-11 instructions. The Mission Statement and General Goals and Objectives Exhibit and the Performance Goals and Indicators Exhibit represent the Department's first attempt to provide additional performance information in preparation for full implementation of the Government Performance and Results Act. I am pleased overall with the quality of this initial effort. For example, the Executive Office for Immigration Review has stated as a goal that it will complete 91 percent of its criminal alien deportation cases prior to the aliens' earliest possible release date. One of the Environmental and Natural The Honorable Alice M. Rivlin 5 Resources Division's goals is to recover at least $25 in civil recoveries, penalties and natural resource damages for every $1 spent by the Environmental Enforcement Section. The USMS has set as a goal that less than 50 percent of forfeited real property will remain in its inventory pending disposal for more than 12 months. As this is the first time many components have tried to articulate specific performance goals, we recognize there is room for improvement, and we intend to continue to refine the performance measures. Exhibits from most of those components are included in this package, and we anticipate that exhibits from several others will be forwarded to you shortly. I look forward to continuing to work with you on the 1996 budget for the Department of Justice. Justens Janet Reno Sincerely Enclosures DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE FY 1996 BUDGET SUBMISSION TO THE OFFICE OF MANAGEMENT AND BUDGET The Department of Justice is requesting a 1996 budget of $17,540,970,000 in budget authority, 94,935 permanent positions, and 110,115 FTE. This includes 94,935 permanent positions, 101,476 FTE, and $15,997,557,000 in discretionary budget authority (including $4,287,000,000 from the Violent Crime Reduction Trust Fund (VCRTF) (of which $440,758,000 is for non- DOJ programs) A chart is enclosed which reflects the items in the Violent Crime Control and Law Enforcement Act that would be funded from the VCRTF. The request includes funding for initiatives relating to prison construction and activation, immigration, infrastructure, advanced telephony, and State and local assistance. We have included a request of $53,073,000 for Administratively Determined pay as a program increase. The Department is requesting this funding to bring attorneys salaries in all departmental components up to the level of the Administratively Determined pay scale used for the U.S. Attorneys. The attorneys in these components perform similar functions, and this would create a more uniform internal compensation system. This request would require a legislative change for compensation of employees currently under the General Schedule. This request includes the annual cost of the conversion to Administratively Determined pay. General Administration The 1996 budget request includes enhancements that support Administration program priorities and management improvements. The General Administration appropriation is requesting a total of 1,525 positions, 1,613 FTE (including 110 reimbursable FTE), and $188,201,000 in the 1996 budget request. Program enhancements totalling $29,466,000 are being requested to support all decision units within the General Administration appropriation. The request also reflects mandatory increases totalling $21,702,000, including 112 FTE and $8,431,000 for the annualization of the FY 1995 positions associated with the President's Immigration Initiative. The Department Leadership decision unit is requesting $11,000,000 to support the Department's joint Automated Booking Station (ABS) initiative. Under the auspices of the Office of the Deputy Attorney General (ODAG), this request is being made to support recurring laboratory and initial acquisition costs associated with the Miami laboratory and other possible expansion labs. Innovative solutions to improve current booking procedures identified by the Department's working group will be tested in the Miami laboratory environment. An additional lab(s) will be considered for implementation in FY 1995. Based on favorable analysis and supporting benefit-cost analyses, an effective Department-level strategy will be developed to identify and consolidate the requirements of participating law enforcement components into a joint ABS acquisition. The Executive Support decision unit is requesting $4,500,000 to support the Freedom of Information and Privacy Act (FOIPA) Laboratory initiative. The purpose of the laboratory is to eliminate unnecessary and redundant search and retrieval procedures and increase cooperation and research sharing both within the Department and with other federal agencies. This request is being made to support a contract, to be competitively awarded, for a FOIPA Document Processing System based on the findings of the Department's working group, including the Office of Information and Privacy (OIP), and the use of the laboratory. Also, within the Executive Support decision unit, a program enhancement of $50,000 is being requested for the Office of Policy Development (OPD). This request is being made to support OPD's increased automated legal research requirements associated with the large number of judicial candidates being reviewed. The Intelligence Policy and Professional Responsibility decision unit includes a program increase of 4 positions, 2 FTE, and $264,000 for the Office of Professional Responsibility (OPR). This request will enable OPR to hire the necessary support personnel so that attorneys can spend more time investigating allegations of attorney misconduct and reducing case backlogs. Additionally, this request will allow OPR to purchase the necessary equipment and contractor support for a more timely response to informational inquiries and a more efficient means for storing and accessing closed files. The Administrative Review and Appeals decision unit includes a program enhancement for the Office of the Pardon Attorney (OPA). This request includes 2 positions, 2 FTE, and $318,000 to allow OPA to respond to the continuing increase in case submissions and correspondence. The additional resources will ensure proper administration of the President's constitutional pardoning power, provide informed and timely reports to accompany the Department's recommendations, and prevent long delays in case processing and case and correspondence backlog. The Executive Office for Immigration Review (EOIR) is requesting a program enhancement of $3,000,000 to fund its Justice Consolidated Office Network (JCON) initiative. EOIR's office automation and case tracking system, the Automated Nationwide System for Immigration Review (ANSIR), is a closed system. The ANSIR life-cycle expires during 1995 and it is essential that EOIR be converted to an open system environment. The transition to an open system is in support of National Performance Review (NPR) guidance and Department of Justice policy. This request -2- will greatly enhance EOIR's communication and program coordination with other Department components, particularly the Immigration and Naturalization Service (INS) The Executive Office for Immigration Review (EOIR) is also requesting a program enhancement of 88 positions, 44 FTE, and $6,900,000. This program increase represents a re-request of resources not provided in the Immigration Initiative portion of the 1995 Crime Bill. These resources would enable EOIR to fund the rest of the asylum reform and expedited deportation activities as authorized. Finally, the 1996 budget request for the General Administration appropriation includes $3,424,000 for an Administratively Determined pay increase to augment salaries to bring the attorneys within the Departmental components up to the level of the U.S. Attorneys. The attorneys in these components perform similar functions, and this would effectively create a more uniform internal compensation system. Office of the Inspector General The 1996 budget request for the Office of the Inspector General is 331 positions, 408 FTE, and $32,114,000. This represents a 5 percent increase for mandatory requirements, or $1,630,000 above the 1995 appropriation anticipated. United States Parole Commission The 1996 budget request for the U.S. Parole Commission is 53 positions, 78 FTE, and $6,890,000. The request is $560,000 lower than the 1995 appropriation of $7,450,000. The request includes a net increase of $336,000 for mandatory requirements, an increase of $108,000 for Administratively Determined pay, and a reduction of 20 positions, 15 FTE, and $1,004,000 for the continued downsizing of the Commission. General Legal Activities For 1996, the General Legal Activities (GLA) appropriation seeks a total resource level of 3,717 positions, 4,021 FTE, and $514,673,000. The requested funding level is 123 positions, 115 FTE, and $93,239,000 higher than the 1995 appropriated level. Specific program increases for each organization within GLA are set out below.

Mandatory adjustments comprise $3,232,000 of this total. This request includes an increase of $2,804,000 in direct authority for Administratively Determined pay. The request also includes an increase of 124 positions (including 43 attorneys), 92 FTE, and $10,238,000 in indirect authority. This revenue neutral increase will be supported by additional fees anticipated as a result of the Hart-Scott-Rodino premerger filing fee being raised to $45,000 in 1995, and the projected collection of 2,208 filings in 1996 (which is consistent with projected 1994 actual filings). This growth in personnel will allow the Antitrust Division to expand its level of review and enforcement to meet the demands of the ever changing global marketplace. United States Attorneys The total requested by the United States Attorneys for 1996 is 8,807 positions, 9,530 FTE, and $940,160,000.

Support of U.S. Prisoners For the Support of U.S. Prisoners (SUSP) appropriation, a total 1996 funding level of $367,447,000 is requested. This request consists of a $353,014,000 base funding request, and a program increase of $14,433,000. This funding would support an estimated 4,980,000 contract jail days in 1996. When combined with Federal jail days at Bureau of Prisons' detention facilities, a total of 7,600,000 jail days would be available. This would allow for annual jail day usage growth of approximately 5 percent in both 1995 and 1996. The request of $20,000,000 in Cooperative Agreement Program (CAP) funding, historically a part of the SUSP request, is included in the Federal Prison System's Buildings and Facilities request. In response to the Attorney General's interest in considering a transfer of responsibility from the USMS to the Bureau of Prisons (BOP) for detainees housed at St. Elizabeth's Hospital in the District of Columbia, BOP and the USMS are working on such a proposal. Narrative explaining the transfer and detailed resource information will be finalized in time for the President's budget submission to Congress. It is anticipated that BOP and the USMS will enter into a reimbursable agreement in FY 1995 to enable BOP to assume responsibility for the detainees prior to the actual transfer in FY 1996. -7- Community Relations Service The Department requests 125 positions, 122 FTE, and $31,448,000 for the Community Relations Service (CRS) in 1996, including net mandatory increases of $533,000.

The Department seeks 55 positions (20 attorneys), 28 FTE, and $3,539,000 in offsetting collections to enhance Chapter 11 case supervision, to strengthen professional fee oversight and to reform the post-confirmation process. A revision of the Chapter 11 fee structure, which would require the debtor to make quarterly payments until the case is dismissed or converted to Chapter 7, will provide the offsetting collections needed to fund these initiatives. The modification of the fee structure will require legislative action. The Department also requests $2,000,000 in a direct appropriation to increase the number of Inspector General audits conducted annually as part of the Private Trustee Supervision/Bankruptcy Fraud Initiative.

This request would enable nationwide implementation of the Background Investigation Contract Services Program under the security reinvestigations program. In addition to these five initiatives, an enhancement of $13,231,000 is requested to expand and improve investigative training for State, Indian tribal, and local law enforcement agencies. This funding will also support improvements to training facilities at Quantico.

In addition, this budget request includes a base adjustment to the Border Patrol base program of $10,730,000 to provide agent mobility. The first initiative, Strengthening Border Management, will expand our ability to control the Southwest border from the first phase of INS' strategy, which began with El Paso and San Diego, to the second phase of its strategy, which includes Arizona and major crossing points in Southeast Texas. Included in this initiative are resources to address the immigration pressure both between and at the ports-of-entry (POEs) as well as deter illegal aliens from entering the country from overseas posts. For efforts between the POEs, the Department is requesting 15 positions, 7 FTE, and $29,317,000. This includes a technical adjustment of $10,730,000 to the Border Patrol's base program for agent mobility that will allow Border Patrol agents to respond rapidly to shifts in alien migration along our borders. Also included are technology enhancements for the Border Patrol program ($1,000,000) and enhanced detention and removal capabilities (15 positions, 7 FTE, and $17,587,000) that will provide an additional 1,010 beds for illegal aliens. With regard to gaining control at land POEs, the Department requests a total of 159 positions, 79 FTE, $8,761,000. As INS gains control between the POEs, a significant amount of traffic, both legal and illegal, will permanently shift to the land border POEs.

In addition, 33 FTE and $4,320,000 are requested in INS' Land Border User fee account to facilitate the increased level of legal traffic at land POEs. These resources will allow INS to facilitate the flow of low-risk traffic while intensifying inspection of high risk traffic. INS will expand the use of Dedicated Commuter Lanes, conduct electronic inspections, and establish automated permit ports at selected locations. With regard to air POEs, the Department is requesting a total of 23 FTE and $17,791,000 in its Immigration User Fee account for this initiative. Included in this request are $8,850,000 for automation and other technologies to continue its re-engineering and streamlining initiatives with the goal of further improving the facilitation of the inspection process while increasing its ability to detect mala fide entrants. Also included are 23 FTE and $8,941,000 to prevent illegal entry through overseas deterrence. Recognizing that "border management" is not limited to our immediate borders, this enhancement will allow INS to pursue proactive international enforcement, thereby reducing -12- illegal activities at their sources and at the key overseas transit locations. This initiative also requests $44,100,000 for automation enhancements not funded in 1995. These funds would support systems development and deployment for the major expansion of the use of automation in the performance of enforcement operations and in the processing of entrants at designated POEs. The second initiative, Reducing Incentives for Illegal Immigration while Improving Delivery of Customer Services, addresses the needs of employers and government entities to verify immigration status quickly and accurately, while providing a research and analysis capability to make informed policy decisions on immigration matters. The Department requests a total of 88 positions, 45 FTE, and $23,051,000. This includes: 41 positions, 21 FTE, and $4,239,000 to implement an alien employment verification system and to expand the Law Enforcement Service Center (formerly named the National Criminal Alien Tracking Center); 19 positions, 10 FTE, and $2,472,000 for an expanded research and analysis branch at INS; $6,440,000 for the "Ask Immigration" telephone system; and $9,900,000 for the removal of aliens denied political asylum. Under the third initiative, Promoting the Professional Development of INS Employees, INS will apply emerging computer- based learning technology to efficiently and effectively distribute a variety of training modules designed to enhance the professionalism of field employees at their work sites. The Department requests 18 positions, 9 FTE, and $3,135,000 in INS' salaries and expenses appropriation and 4 FTE, and $1,205,000 in its User Fee account for a total of 18 positions, 13 FTE, and $4,340,000 for this initiative. The fourth initiative, the Institutional Hearing Program, will expand our efforts directed toward the rapid removal of criminal aliens from Federal and State prison facilities. The Department is requesting a total of 332 positions, 167 FTE, and $23,199,000 for this program. These resources will allow INS to expand this program in the five States with the highest concentration of criminal aliens. INS received an enhancement of 61 positions, 96 FTE, and $16,900,000 in FY 1995 for this initiative. However, this request did not include the necessary resources for the "removal" portion of the program. This is because the workload associated with the removal, or final orders of deportation, was not expected to increase until 1996. This increase represents the second year of funding for the 1995 initiative. Finally, the INS request includes $8,812,000 for Administratively Determined pay for attorneys. -13- Federal Prison System The total 1996 funding request for the Federal Prison System (FPS) is 31,708 positions, 31,900 FTE (including 127 reimbursable FTE), and $3,303,912,000. This request includes total program increases of 2,428 positions, 851 FTE, and $545,474,000. The funding request by appropriation consists of: 31,330 positions, 29,164 FTE, and $2,887,257,000 for salaries and expenses (S&E) ; 327 positions, 324 FTE, and $401,328,000 for Buildings and Facilities; 51 positions, 51 FTE, and $15,327,000 for the National Institute of Corrections (NIC) i 1,851 FTE for Federal Prison Industries (FPI); and 510 FTE for the Commissary Fund. FPS's request is based on a number of agency and departmental priorities, the foremost being the reduction of overcrowding in Federal institutions and the challenges posed by a relentless growth in the inmate population. During 1996, the institutional inmate population is projected to rise from an average daily population of 91,890 to 100,627. To support these additional inmates, additional resources are needed to meet the food, medical care, clothing, security, transportation and program costs associated with the projected population increase. A program increase of $15,464,000 is requested to support this 9 percent projected population growth. To address the challenges posed by a growing population, FPS has made concerted, continuous efforts to efficiently and effectively house its inmate population. The most dramatic of these has been the modification of the rated capacity guidelines. Despite the fact that most State and local correctional institutions still employ the one-inmate-per-cell rated capacity standard, FPS has adopted policies that provide for double-bunking at every security level. As of August 25, 1994, the overcrowding rate was 36 percent above rated capacity. Absent these changes in rated capacity, FPS overcrowding would exceed 70 percent when compared to the State standard. The activation of new facilities as they are completed is critical to the effort of lowering overcrowding. Failure to activate facilities in a timely manner will keep overcrowding high and result in millions of dollars in capital investment standing idle. Thus, an increase of 2,334 positions, 703 FTE, and $194,805,000 is sought for the activation of 6 new prison facilities and 5 prison expansions. The new bedspace consists of: Federal Correctional Institution (FCI) Taft, California (512 minimum security beds, 1,536 low security beds) ; Metropolitan Detention Center (MDC) Brooklyn, New York (1,229 detention beds) i FCI Beaumont, Texas (1,536 low security beds) i FCI Forrest City, Arizona (1,536 low security beds) ; FCI Yazoo, Mississippi (1,536 low security beds); -14- FPC Beaumont, Texas (512 minimum security beds) i FCI Tallahassee, Florida, camp (150 beds); FCI Milan, Michigan, camp (150 beds) i FCI Lompoc, California, Intensive Confinement Center (200 beds) ; FCI Fort Worth, Texas, camp (150 beds) i and Federal Medical Center Lexington, camp (150 beds). Also included in this activation request is equipment funding for a Federal Medical Center in Butner, North Carolina, for medical and low security inmates. For contract confinement programs, increases totaling $27,361,000 are requested to expand the use of alternatives to incarceration. This enhancement will support an increase in the average daily population at community correction centers of 1,300 inmates, as well as an additional 308 inmates housed in State and local correctional facilities. These programs help to ease overcrowding in Bureau of Prisons (BOP) institutions by placing inmates in State, local and contract facilities. Medical program increases totaling 9 positions, 9 FTE, and $12,175,000 are requested for 1996. These consist of: $7,575,000 for the testing and treatment of infectious diseases; $910,000 for a loan repayment program to attract and retain qualified medical staff; $500,000 for environmental consulting; and 9 positions, 9 FTE, and $3,190,000 for kidney dialysis at Federal Medical Center Springfield, Missouri. For drug treatment programs, 37 positions, 25 FTE, and $1,702,000 are requested to provide for an additional drug treatment programming, including five new residential drug treatment programs. To expand the bus transportation center at Terre Haute, Indiana, $684,000 is sought. Finally, a program increase of $3,283,000 is requested to fund an Administratively Determined pay scale for attorney positions. To address long-term housing needs and to support efforts to reduce overcrowding and provide adequate detention housing, program increases totaling 48 positions, 45 FTE, and $285,755,000 are requested for the Buildings and Facilities (B&F) appropriation. For B&F new construction detention needs, 6 positions, 6 FTE and $20,000,000 are requested for BOP to pursue a contract capable of housing both Federal detainees and sentenced inmates in Hawaii, and $20,000,000 for the Cooperative Agreement Program (CAP). Also, a program increase of $20,051,000, in addition to a base transfer of $2,300,000 from the USMS, is requested to fund the construction of holding cells and related court house facilities required by the USMS. To address long-term overcrowding in sentenced offender housing, with the intent of maintaining an overcrowding level of 115 percent in the outyears compared to the previous goal of 102 percent, the B&F new construction request includes -15- 6 positions, 3 FTE, and $108,900,000 to construct one 1,152-bed medium security facility and a 512-bed satellite camp in the Western Region (likely George Air Force Base), and 6 positions, 6 FTE, and $64,500,000 to complete construction of a 1,152 bed medium security facility at the Beaumont, Texas, Federal Corrections Complex. Also requested are 8 positions, 8 FTE, and $14,831,000 to expand existing facilities with the addition of 4 Intensive Confinement Centers (boot camps) and 4 general expansions. To protect the Federal Government's enormous investment in prison facilities, program increases of 22 positions, 22 FTE, and $37,473,000 are requested to protect and upgrade the capital investment in existing facilities. Included in the modernization and repair request are 4 positions and FTE and $3,370,000 for life safety improvements at 4 institutions; 1 position and FTE and $1,156,000 for the removal of hazardous waste at 1 institution; 9 positions and FTE and $12,986,000 for general improvements at 9 institutions; 1 position and FTE and $7,228,000 for a major renovation at 1 institution; 6 positions and FTE and $9,840,000 for utility improvements at 6 institutions; and 1 position and FTE and $2,893,000 for energy resources improvements at 1 institution. For the National Institute of Corrections (NIC), a program increase of $5,000,000 over the 1996 base is requested to allow for increased technical assistance in 1996. NIC is a highly valued member of the Nation's correctional system because it provides services to Federal, State and local correctional systems. Under the newly enacted Violent Crime Control and Law Enforcement Act, which provides considerable funding for State and local governments, NIC will play an important implementation role. The FPI and the Commissary Trust Fund seek 1,851 and 510 FTE, respectively. For FPI, program changes consist of an increase of 50 FTE for new activations. Program changes for the Commissary Trust Fund include 19 FTE for new activations and expansions. Weed and Seed Program Fund The request for the Weed and Seed Program Fund includes only inflationary increases. Of the total request of $13,500,000, $12,667,000 is for Weed and Seed grants, and $833,000 is for administration of the program. Community Policing Program The 1996 request for the Community Policing Program is $1,902,250,000, 310 positions, and 310 FTE. The request includes program changes of $602,250,000 180 positions, and 180 FTE. Of the total increase, $582,000,000, 180 positions, and 180 FTE is -16- requested for the Cops on the Beat Program, which would result in total 1996 funding of $1,882,000,000 for this program and allow for the planned hiring of approximately 20,000 police officers in 1996. It is estimated that 97,920 police officers will be hired or rehired over the next 6 years. Added to the 2,080 police officers, funded through the 1993 Community Policing supplemental, this achieves the President's goal of hiring 100,000 police officers. The balance of the increase, $20,250,000, is requested to implement Crime Control Act programs that were not funded in 1995. These programs include the Police Recruitment Program, the Police Corps Program, and the Law Enforcement Scholarship Program. The specific funding levels that are requested for each of these policing programs is reflected in the attached charts. Office of Justice Programs The total 1996 request for the Office of Justice Programs (OJP) is $2,188,734,000, 557 positions, and 537 FTE. The request provides base funding to continue the Regional Information Sharing System, Missing Children, White Collar Crime Information Center, the Byrne formula grants, Correctional Options grants, and Victims of Child Abuse Act grants at the 1995 level. The request also includes program increases of $1,107,412,000, 120 positions, and 90 FTE. The program increases include $50,000,000 in Byrne discretionary grants to allow the Department to respond to emerging State and local issues that involve an immediate response; an increase of $42,500,000 to implement the second phase of a comprehensive long term strategy to address the problem of serious, violent, and chronic juvenile offenders; $1,000,000 for the National Institute of Justice to continue the conduct of a comprehensive longitudinal study on the causes of delinquency and criminal behavior; $3,175,000 for several criminal justice statistical collection efforts, including the collection of data on Brady Act and National Child Protection Act background checks; and $201,000 for Administratively Determined pay for attorneys. The request also provides increases for Crime Control Act programs that, although funded in 1995, are authorized at significantly higher levels in 1996. These increases include $220,000,000 for the State Criminal Alien Assistance Program, $409,688,000 for State Correctional Program grants, $77,558,000 for the Drug Courts program, $104,000,000 for Violence Against Women Act grants, and $5,588,000 for the Ounce of Prevention program. In addition, total program increases of $193,702,000 are included for a number of new Crime Control Act programs that were not funded in 1995. The increase of 120 positions and 90 FTE, included in the request, is required to implement and administer these new Crime Control programs and to support the -17- overall increase in Crime Control grant resources. Funding for administration of the Crime Control programs is drawn from Crime Control program dollars, as was allowed by the Congress in 1995. A summary of the total program changes and the base request for OJP and the allocation of these resources between direct spending and Crime Control resources are reflected on the attached charts. Crime Victims Fund For the Crime Victims Fund, the Department is requesting that all collections deposited into the Fund be obligated. A total of $165,025,000 is estimated to be collected in 1995 for obligation in 1996. Public Safety Officer's Benefits The request for the Public Safety Officer's Benefits (PSOB) program includes an inflationary increase as required by law. With the total amount requested, $28,474,000 is included for the Death Benefits program and $2,134,000 is included for the Disability Benefits program. Foreign Claims Settlement Commission The total requested by the Foreign Claims Settlement Commission is 9 positions, 9 FTE, and $990,000. This includes a program increase of $85,000 for Administratively Determined pay. Radiation Exposure Compensation Trust Fund The Radiation Exposure Compensation Trust Fund is requesting $16,264,000 to continue payments to eligible claimants in 1996. Current projections indicate that the Trust Fund will run out of funds to pay claims in 1996 without the increase. Over the course of 1995, legislation may be introduced in Congress expanding the eligible pool of claimants to the Trust Fund. Should this occur, the Department may need to request even more funding. Radiation Exposure Compensation Trust Fund Administrative Expenses The total 1996 request for the Administrative Expenses of the Trust Fund will be $2,655,000. No program increases are being requested for 1996. Change in General Provisions The Department is amending transfer authority language in the General Provisions section of the Department of Justice and -18- Related Agencies Appropriations Act of 1995 to allow transfers of funding provided to the Department in the Violent Crime Reduction Trust Fund. This amendment would give the Department the flexibility to allow transfers of funding between all accounts of the Department, except Justice Assistance, should existing priorities change. We are also requesting that the authority for undercover operations be extended for 1996 and thereafter. This language was enacted in 1993 for three years, and the authority must now be extended. 21-Sep-94 DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE 04:47 PM 996 REQUEST 96OMB (Dollars in Thousands) 1995 1996 CHANGES 1996 OMB REQUEST DOJ APPROPRIATIONS VIOLENT CRIME APPROPRIATION ADJUSTMENTS PROGRAM VIOLENT CRIME (less procurement savings) REDUCTION TRUST FUND ENACTED TO BASE CHANGES DIRECT REDUCTION TRUST FUND 1996 OMB REQUEST APPROPRIATION POS FTE BA POS FTE BA POS FTE BA POS FTE BA POS FTE BA POS FTE BA POS FTE BA POS FTE BA DISCRETIONARY FUNCTIONAL CODE 750 GENERAL ADMINISTRATION 1,114 1,341 119,643 224 112 17,400 1,338 1,453 137,043 3 112 21,702 94 48 29,456 1,213 1,345 139,521 312 268 48,680 1,525 1,613 188,201 OFFICE OF THE INSPECTOR GENERAL 331 408 30,484 ... ... ... 331 408 30,484 -- *** 1,630 ... ... ... 331 408 32,114 - - *** 331 408 32,114 COMMUNITY POLICING ... ... ... 130 98 1,300,000 130 96 1,300,000 ... 32 ... 180 180 602,250 ... ... - 310 310 1,902,250 310 310 1,902,250 WEED AND BEE D FUND. 7 7 13,456 ... ... ... 7 7 13,456 ... ... 44 ... ... ... 7 7 13,500 - ... ... 7 7 13,500 NATIONAL DRUG INTELLIGENCE CENTER [256] 222 ... ... ... ...
