Programs funded within the Defense Nuclear Nonproliferation (DNN) appropriation help keep America safe by preventing adversaries from acquiring nuclear weapons or weapons-usable materials, technology, and expertise; countering efforts to acquire such weapons or materials; and responding to nuclear or radiological accidents and incidents domestically and abroad.

The Defense Nuclear Nonproliferation (DNN) and the Nuclear Counterterrorism and Incident Response (NCTIR) programs have a primary role in the U.S. approach to reducing nuclear security risks. These two programs provide policy and technical leadership to prevent or limit the spread of materials, technology, and expertise related to weapons of mass destruction (WMD); develop technologies that detect the proliferation of WMD worldwide; secure or eliminate inventories of nuclear weapons-related materials and infrastructure; and ensure a technically trained response both domestically and worldwide to nuclear and radiological incidents.

The major elements of the appropriation account include the following:

Material Management and Minimization (M3).—M3 programs minimize and, when possible, eliminate weapons-usable nuclear material around the world to achieve permanent threat reduction. This includes minimizing the civilian use of highly enriched uranium (HEU); removing or eliminating the world's most vulnerable weapons-usable nuclear material; and disposing of excess nuclear material in the United States.

Global Material Security (GMS).—GMS programs prevent terrorists and other actors from obtaining nuclear and radiological material to use in an improvised nuclear device or a radiological dispersal device by working with partner countries to improve the security of vulnerable materials and facilities and to improve partners' capacities to deter, detect, and investigate illicit trafficking of these materials. GMS works with countries in bilateral partnerships, and with and through multilateral partners such as the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) and International Criminal Police Organization (Interpol).

Nonproliferation and Arms Control (NPAC).—NPAC supports activities to prevent the proliferation of WMD by state and non-state actors. NPAC develops and implements programs and strategies to strengthen international nuclear safeguards; control the spread of nuclear and dual-use material, equipment, technology, and expertise; verify nuclear reductions and compliance with nonproliferation and arms control treaties and agreements; and address enduring and emerging nonproliferation and arms control challenges and opportunities.

National Technical Nuclear Forensics (NTNF).—NNSA will focus on expanding nuclear forensics capabilities in both research and development (R&D) and operations leveraging existing capabilities in the DNN and Counterterrorism and Counterproliferation offices.

Defense Nuclear Nonproliferation Research and Development (DNN R&D).—DNN R&D drives the innovation of unilateral and multi-lateral technical capabilities to detect nuclear detonations; foreign nuclear weapons programs' activities; and the presence, movement, or diversion of special nuclear materials. To meet national and Departmental nuclear security requirements, DNN R&D leverages the unique facilities and scientific skills of the Department of Energy, academia, and industry to perform research, conduct technology demonstrations, develop prototypes, and produce and deliver sensors for integration into operational systems.

Nonproliferation Construction.—The budget supports the transition to the dilute and dispose strategy to fulfill the United States' commitment to dispose of 34 metric tons of surplus U.S. weapon-grade plutonium and remove plutonium from the state of South Carolina. The request supports the continuation of preliminary design for the Surplus Plutonium Disposition (SPD) project, as well as long-lead procurements. With available prior year balances, termination activities for the Mixed Oxide Fuel Fabrication project will be completed in FY 2021.

Nuclear Counterterrorism and Incident Response (NCTIR).—The NCTIR Program executes the DOE/NNSA's Comprehensive Emergency Management System program that administers implementation and support of emergency management for all DOE/NNSA offices and sites, and manages the DOE/NNSA Consolidated Emergency Operations Center, Emergency Communications Network, Emergency Management Policy, Training, National Exercises Program, and Continuity Program activities.

The Defense Environmental Cleanup program is responsible for protecting human health and the environment by identifying and reducing risks, as well as managing waste and facilities, at sites where the Department carried out defense-related nuclear research and production activities. Those activities resulted in radioactive, hazardous, and mixed-waste contamination requiring remediation, stabilization, decontamination and decommissioning, or some other type of cleanup action. The Budget displays the cleanup program by site and activity.

Closure Sites.—Funds post-closure administration costs after the physical completion of cleanup, including costs for contract closeout and litigation support.

Hanford Site.—Funds cleanup and environmental restoration to protect the Columbia River and surrounding communities. The Hanford site cleanup is managed by two Environmental Management (EM) site offices: the Richland Operations Office and the Office of River Protection.

The Richland Office is responsible for cleanup activities on most of the geographic area making up the Hanford site. The primary cleanup focus is decontamination and decommissioning legacy facilities and characterizing and treating contaminated groundwater.

The Office of River Protection is responsible for the safe storage, retrieval, treatment, immobilization, and disposal of approximately 56 million gallons of radioactive waste stored in 177 underground tanks. It is also responsible for related operation, maintenance, engineering, and construction activities, including those connected to the Waste Treatment and Immobilization Plant being built to solidify the liquid tank waste in a glass form that can be safely stored.

Idaho.—Funds retrieval, treatment, and disposition of nuclear and hazardous wastes and spent nuclear fuel, and legacy site cleanup activities.

NNSA Sites.—Funds the safe and efficient cleanup of the environmental legacy of past operations at National Nuclear Security Administration (NNSA) sites including Nevada National Security Site, Sandia National Laboratories, Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, Los Alamos National Laboratory and the Separations Process Research Unit. The cleanup strategy follows a risk-informed approach that focuses first on those soil and groundwater contaminant plumes and sources that are the greatest contributors to risk. The overall goal is first to ensure that risks to the public and workers are controlled, then to clean up soil and groundwater using a risk-informed methodology. NNSA is responsible for long-term stewardship of its sites after physical cleanup is completed. Los Alamos legacy cleanup is managed by the EM Los Alamos field office. Funding is included to support the deactivation and decommissioning (D&D) of specific high-risk excess facilities to be transferred to the Environmental Management program for Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory.

Oak Ridge.—Funds defense-related cleanup of the three facilities that make up the Oak Ridge Reservation: the East Tennessee Technology Park, the Oak Ridge National Laboratory, and the Y-12 Plant. The overall cleanup strategy is based on surface water considerations, encompassing five distinct watersheds that feed the adjacent Clinch River.

Savannah River Site.—Funds the safe stabilization, treatment, and disposition of legacy nuclear materials, spent nuclear fuel, and waste at the Savannah River site. Key activities include operating the Defense Waste Processing Facility, which is solidifying the high activity liquid waste contained in underground storage tanks, and the testing and cold commissioning of the Salt Waste Processing Facility, which will separate various tank waste components and treat and dispose the low activity liquid waste stream.

Waste Isolation Pilot Plant.—Funds the world's first permitted deep geologic repository for the permanent disposal of radioactive waste, and the Nation's only disposal site for defense-generated transuranic waste. The Waste Isolation Pilot Plant, managed by the Carlsbad Field Office, is an operating facility, supporting the disposal of transuranic waste from waste generator and storage sites across the DOE complex. The Waste Isolation Pilot Plant is crucial to the Department of Energy (DOE) completing its cleanup and closure mission.

Program Direction.—Funds the Federal workforce responsible for the overall direction and administrative support of the EM program, including both Headquarters and field personnel.

Program Support.—Funds management and direction for various crosscutting EM and DOE initiatives, intergovernmental activities, and analyses and integration activities across DOE in a consistent, responsible, and efficient manner.

Safeguards and Security.—Funds activities to protect against unauthorized access, theft, diversion, loss of custody or destruction of DOE assets, and hostile acts that could cause adverse impacts to fundamental national security or the health and safety of DOE and contractor employees, the public or the environment.

Technology Development and Deployment.—Funds projects managed through Headquarters to address the immediate, near- and long-term technology needs identified by the EM sites, enabling them to accelerate their cleanup schedules, treat orphaned wastes, improve worker safety, and provide technical foundations for the sites' cleanup decisions. These projects focus on maturing and deploying the technologies necessary to accelerate tank waste processing, treatment, and waste loading.

Environment, Health, Safety and Security Mission Support.—The program supports the Department's health, safety, environment, and security programs to enhance productivity while maintaining the highest standards of safe operation, protection of national assets, and environmental sustainability. As the Department's "environment, health, safety and security advocate," the program works closely with DOE line managers who are ultimately responsible for ensuring the Department's work is managed and performed in a manner that protects workers and the public as well as the Department's material and information assets. The program functions include: policy and guidance development and technical assistance; analysis of health, safety, environment, and security performance; nuclear safety; domestic and international health studies; medical screening programs for former workers; Energy Employee Occupational Illness Compensation Program Act support; quality assurance programs; interface with the Defense Nuclear Facilities Safety Board; national security information programs; and security for the Department's facilities and personnel in the National Capital Area.

Enterprise Assessments.—The program supports the Department's independent assessments of security, cybersecurity, emergency management, and environment, safety and health performance; enforcement of worker safety and health, nuclear safety; and classified information security regulations; and implementation of security and safety professional development and training programs.

Specialized Security Activities.—The program supports national security related analyses requiring highly specialized skills and capabilities.

Legacy Management.—The program supports long-term stewardship activities (e.g., groundwater monitoring, disposal cell maintenance, records management, and management of natural resources) at sites where active remediation has been completed. In addition, Legacy Management funds the post-retirement benefits for former contractor employees. In 2021, the requested funding supports the administration of the Formerly Utilized Sites Remedial Action Program (FUSRAP), which includes funding cleanup activities performed by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE).

Hearings and Appeals.—The Office of Hearings and Appeals adjudicates personnel security cases, as well as whistleblower reprisal complaints filed by DOE contractor employees. The office is the appeal authority in various other areas, including Freedom of Information Act and Privacy Act appeals. In addition, the office decides requests for exception from DOE orders, rules, regulations, and is responsible for the DOE's alternative dispute resolution function.

Defense-Related Administrative Support.—Obligations are included for defense-related administrative support that serves to offset costs attributable to the defense-related programs within the Department of Energy that utilize the department-wide services funded by the Departmental Administration account. These include accounting and information technology department-wide services.

Advanced Scientific Computing Research.—The Advanced Scientific Computing Research (ASCR) program supports research in applied mathematics and computer science; delivers the most advanced computational scientific applications in partnership with disciplinary science; advances computing and networking capabilities; and develops future generations of computing hardware and tools for science, in partnership with the research community and U.S. industry. The strategy to accomplish this has three thrusts: developing, deploying, and maintaining world-class computing and network facilities for science; advancing research in applied mathematics, computer science and advanced networking; and partnering with other DOE and Office of Science (SC) programs to advance the use of its high performance computers to drive scientific advances for the Nation. The program supports the development, maintenance, and operation of large high-performance computing and network facilities, including the Leadership Computing Facilities at Oak Ridge and Argonne National Laboratories, the National Energy Research Scientific Computing Facility at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, and the Energy Sciences Network.

Maximizing the benefits of U.S. leadership computing in the coming decades will require an effective national response to increasing demands for computing capabilities and performance, emerging technological challenges and opportunities, and competition with other nations. The DOE has a long history of making fundamental contributions to applied mathematics and computer science associated with strategic computing and a similar set of contributions is foreseen for quantum computing and networking, artificial intelligence (AI), and machine learning (ML) in the science domain and in related investments in advanced architectures and hardware. ASCR's proposed activities are in line with the Nation's Research and Development (R&D) priority for American Leadership in AI, Quantum Information Sciences (QIS), and Strategic Computing. Within the context of this coordinated Federal strategy, the SC and the National Nuclear Security Administration (NNSA) continue to partner on the Department's Exascale Computing Initiative (ECI) to overcome key exascale challenges in parallelism, energy efficiency, and reliability, leading to deployment of a diverse set of exascale systems in the calendar year 2021–2022 timeframe. The ECI's goal for an exascale-capable system is a five-fold increase in sustained performance over the Summit high-performance computing (HPC) system at Oak Ridge National Laboratory, with applications that address next-generation science, engineering, and data problems. The ECI focuses on delivering advanced simulation through an exascale-capable computing program, emphasizing sustained performance in science and national security mission applications and increased convergence between exascale and large-data analytic computing.

Basic Energy Sciences.—The Basic Energy Sciences (BES) program supports fundamental research to understand, predict, and ultimately control matter and energy at the electronic, atomic, and molecular levels in order to provide the foundations for new energy technologies and to support DOE missions in energy, environment, and national security. Key to exploiting such discoveries is the ability to create new materials using sophisticated synthesis and processing techniques, precisely define the atomic arrangements in matter, and control physical and chemical transformations. The energy systems of the future will revolve around materials and chemical changes that convert energy from one form to another. The research disciplines that BES supports—condensed matter and materials physics, chemistry, geosciences, and aspects of biosciences—are those that discover new materials and design new chemical processes that touch virtually every important aspect of energy resources, production, conversion, transmission, storage, efficiency, and waste mitigation. BES research provides a knowledge base to help understand, predict, and ultimately control the natural world and helps build the foundation for achieving a secure and sustainable energy future. BES invests in fundamental research to drive the scientific frontiers and innovation in high priority areas such as QIS, AI/ML, microelectronics, polymer upcycling, critical materials and rare earth separations, and exascale computing. BES also manages a research portfolio in accelerator physics, x-ray and neutron detectors, and x-ray-optics to explore technology options for developing the next generations of x-ray and neutron sources. BES also supports twelve world-class, open-access scientific user facilities consisting of a complementary set of intense x-ray sources, neutron sources, and research centers for nanoscale science. BES facilities probe materials with ultrahigh spatial, temporal, and energy resolutions to investigate the critical functions of matter—transport, reactivity, fields, excitations, and motion—and answer some of the most challenging grand science questions. These facilities undergo continual development and upgrade of capabilities, including fabricating new x-ray and neutron experimental stations, improving core facilities, and providing new stand-alone instruments and capabilities. BES also manages construction projects to build new or upgrade existing facilities to provide world-leading tools and instruments to the scientific community and maintain U.S. leadership in the physical sciences.

Biological and Environmental Research.—The Biological and Environmental Research (BER) program supports fundamental research and provides scientific user facilities to achieve a predictive understanding of complex biological, earth, and environmental systems for energy and infrastructure resilience and sustainability. The program seeks to understand the biological, biogeochemical, and physical principles needed to predict a continuum of processes from the molecular and genomics-controlled smallest scales to environmental and ecological processes. Starting with the genetic potential encoded by organisms' genomes, BER Biological System Science research approaches include genome sequencing, proteomics, metabolomics, structural biology, high-resolution imaging and characterization, and integration of information into predictive computational models that can be iteratively tested and validated. This can enable more confident redesign of microbes and plants for sustainable biofuels production, improved carbon storage, and controlled biological transformation of materials such as nutrients and metals in the environment. The program also is initiating new efforts in translating biodesign rules to functional properties of novel biological polymers. BER Earth and Environmental Systems Sciences research advances the fundamental scientific analysis and modeling of the sensitivity and uncertainty of earth system predictions to atmospheric, cryospheric, oceanic, and biogeochemical processes in both terrestrial and subsurface environments. Investments will continue to support the E3SM (Energy Exascale Earth System Model) capability, tailored to DOE requirements for a variety of scenarios applied to spatial scales as small as 10 kilometers. The DOE Joint Genome Institute (JGI) provides high quality genome sequence data and analysis techniques for a wide variety of plants and microbial communitiesin support of sustainable, renewable bioenergy and bioproducts research, and environmental research. JGI continues to be an essential component of DOE systems biology efforts. The Atmospheric Radiation Measurement (ARM) research facility provides unique, multi-instrumented capabilities for continuous, long-term observations of clouds, aerosols, and related meteorological information that can be used to improve earth system models. The Environmental Molecular Sciences Laboratory (EMSL) provides integrated experimental and computational resources for discovery and technological innovation in the environmental molecular sciences.

Fusion Energy Sciences.—The Fusion Energy Sciences (FES) program mission is to expand the fundamental understanding of matter at very high temperatures and densities and to build the scientific foundation needed to develop a fusion energy source. This is accomplished through the study of plasma, the fourth state of matter, and how it interacts with its surroundings. Plasma science is wide-ranging, since 99 percent of the visible universe is composed of plasmas of various types. High-temperature fusion plasmas at hundreds of millions of degrees occur in national security applications albeit for very short times. The same fusion plasmas may be exploited in the laboratory in controlled fashion to become the basis for a future clean nuclear power source, which could provide domestic energy independence and security.

The FES program has three elements: 1) Burning Plasma Science: Foundations—The behavior of magnetically confined fusion plasmas is experimentally explored on the DIII-D National Fusion Facility and the National Spherical Torus Experiment-Upgrade, which are national SC user facilities. Fusion theory and simulation activities predict and interpret the complex behavior of plasmas as self-organized systems. The element supports FES Scientific Discovery through Advanced Computing centers in partnership with ASCR; 2) Burning Plasma Science: Long Pulse—U.S. scientists take advantage of international partnerships to conduct research on superconducting tokamaks and stellarators with long-duration capabilities. The element supports research to develop novel materials that can withstand the extreme fusion environment; 3) Discovery Plasma Science: Research—This elment supports research on areas including plasma astrophysics, high-energy-density laboratory plasmas, low-temperature plasmas, and innovative measurement techniques. Investments in transformational technologies such as machine learning, QIS, microelectronics, and high-performance strategic computing accelerate progress in several mission areas. Finally, the unique scientific challenges and rigor of fusion and plasma physics research lead to the development of a well-trained Science Technology Engineering and Mathematics-focused workforce, which will contribute to maintaining and advancing U.S. competitiveness and world-leadership in key areas of future technological and economic importance, as well as national security.

High Energy Physics.—The High Energy Physics (HEP) program mission is to understand how the universe works at its most fundamental level by discovering the elementary constituents of matter and energy, probing the interactions among them, and exploring the basic nature of space and time. The HEP program offers research opportunities for individual investigators and small-scale collaborations, as well as very large international collaborations. A world-wide program of particle physics research is underway to discover what lies beyond the Standard Model of particle physics. Five intertwined science drivers of particle physics provide compelling lines of inquiry that show great promise for discovery: use the Higgs boson as a new tool for discovery; pursue the physics associated with neutrino mass; identify the new physics of dark matter; understand cosmic acceleration, dark energy, and inflation; and explore new particles, interactions and physical principles. The program enables scientific discovery through a strategy organized along three frontiers of particle physics: 1) The Energy Frontier, where researchers accelerate particles to the highest energies ever made by humans and collide them to produce and study the fundamental constituents of matter. This requires some of the largest machines ever built; 2) The Intensity Frontier, where researchers use a combination of intense particle beams and highly sensitive detectors to make extremely precise measurements of particle properties, to study some of the rarest particle interactions predicted by the Standard Model , and to search for new physics; and 3) The Cosmic Frontier, where researchers seek to reveal the nature of dark matter and dark energy by using naturally occurring particles to explore new phenomena. The highest-energy particles ever observed have come from cosmic sources, and the ancient light from distant galaxies allows scientists to map the distribution of dark matter and perhaps unravel the nature of dark energy. Investments in Theoretical, Computational, and Interdiciplinary Physics provide the framework to explain experimental observations and gain a deeper understanding of nature while addressing cross-cutting challenges in QIS and AI/ML. Advanced Technology R&D fosters fundamental research into particle acceleration and detection techniques and instrumentation, supporting the frontiers and enabling future discovery experiments. Accelerator Stewardship supports R&D for advanced technologies and research tools synergistic with HEP that directly impact other sciences,industry, medicine, and national security.

Nuclear Physics.—The Nuclear Physics (NP) program mission is to discover, explore, and understand all forms of nuclear matter. Although the fundamental particles that compose nuclear matter—quarks and gluons—are themselves relatively well understood, exactly how they interact and combine to form the different types of matter observed in the universe today and during its evolution remains largely unknown. Nuclear physicists seek to understand not just the familiar forms of matter we see around us, but also exotic forms such as those which existed in the first microseconds after the birth of the cosmos and that exist today inside neutron stars. The NP program addresses three tightly interrelated scientific thrusts: 1) how the strong nuclear force assembles quarks and gluons into protons and neutrons; 2) how novel forms of bulk, strongly interacting matter behave, such as the quark-gluon plasma that formed in the early universe; and 3) the structure of nuclei; how protons and neutrons combine to form atomic nuclei and how these nuclei have arisen during the 13.8 billion years since the birth of the cosmos. NP provides approximately 95 percent of all nuclear science federal research funding. NP supports highly trained university and national laboratory scientists to conceive, plan, execute, and interpret transformative experiments in the U.S. and in international collaborations. NP also maintains and operates three national scientific user facilities that accelerate particles to nearly the speed of light, producing short-lived forms of matter for investigation. The Facility for Rare Isotope Beams is nearing completion at Michigan State University, and will provide advanced world-leading capabilities for science, national security applications, and isotope production. Researchers will use NP's low energy, precision nuclear experiments, many enabled by new quantum sensors, to search for a deeper understanding of nuclear interactions. The Electron Ion Collider (EIC) will ensure U.S. leadership in nuclear physics research and accelerator R&D. The EIC will enable scientists to investigate and answer questions about the basic building blocks of nuclei and how quarks and gluons (particles inside neutrons and protons), interact dynamically via the strong force to generate the fundamental properties of neutrons and protons, such as mass and spin.

The DOE Isotope Program supports high-priority research on the development of cutting-edge approaches for producing isotopes critical to the nation in basic research and applications, including ground breaking research on the production of alpha emitting isotopes in sufficient quantity to enable clinical trials for cancer therapy. The program provides mission readiness for the production of radioactive and stable isotopes that are in short supply for research and a wide array of applications. Construction continues for the Stable Isotope Production and Research Center to expand the stable isotope production capability to meet the demand of the Nation, while also mitigating dependency on critical isotopes from foreign suppliers. Stable and radioactive isotopes are vital to the missions of many Federal agencies including the National Institutes of Health, the National Institute of Standards and Technology, the Department of Agriculture, Department of Homeland Security, NNSA, and DOE SC programs. NP continues to work in close collaboration with all federal organizations to develop strategic plans for isotope production and to establish effective communication to better forecast isotope needs and leverage resources.

Science Laboratories Infrastructure.—The Science Laboratories Infrastructure (SLI) program supports scientific and technological innovation at the SC laboratories by funding and sustaining mission-ready infrastructure and fostering safe and environmentally responsible operations. The program provides state-of-the-art facilities and infrastructure that are flexible, reliable, and sustainable in support of scientific discovery. The SLI program also funds Payments in Lieu of Taxes to local communities around the Argonne, Brookhaven, and Oak Ridge National Laboratories. The SLI program continues to focus on improving infrastructure across the SC national laboratory complex. The FY 2021 Budget includes funding for three new construction starts and fifteen on-going SLI construction projects.

Safeguards and Security.—The Safeguards and Security (S&S) program is designed to ensure appropriate security measures are in place to support the SC mission requirement of open scientific research and to protect critical assets within SC laboratories. This is accomplished by providing physical controls that will mitigate possible risks to the laboratories' employees, nuclear and special materials, classified and sensitive information, and facilities. The S&S program also provides funding for cyber security for the laboratories' information technology systems to protect electronic data while enabling the SC mission.

Workforce Development for Teachers and Scientists.—The Workforce Development for Teachers and Scientists (WDTS) program mission is to help ensure that DOE has a sustained pipeline of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) workers. This is accomplished through support of undergraduate internships, and graduate thesis research at the DOE laboratories; and annual, nationwide, middle- and high-school science competitions culminating in the National Science Bowl in Washington, D.C. These investments help develop the next generation of scientists and engineers to support the DOE mission, administer programs, and conduct research.

Program Direction.—Science Program Direction supports a highly skilled Federal workforce to develop and oversee SC investments in research and scientific user facilities. SC investments deliver scientific discoveries and major scientific tools that transform our understanding of nature and advance the energy, economic, and national security of the United States. In addition, SC provides public access to DOE scientific findings to further leverage the Federal science investment and advance the scientific enterprise. SC requires highly skilled scientific and technical program and project managers, as well as experts in areas such as acquisition, finance, legal, construction, and infrastructure management, human resources, and environmental, safety, and health oversight. SC plans, executes, and manages basic science research programs that address critical national needs. Oversight of DOE's basic research portfolio, which includes extramural grants and contracts supporting over 23,000 researchers located at over 300 institutions and the 17 DOE national laboratories, spanning all fifty states and the District of Columbia and 28 scientific user facilities serving over 33,000 users per year, as well as supervision of major construction projects, is a Federal responsibility.

The Fossil Energy Research and Development (FER&D) program conducts research that supports the Nation's ability to increase the use of domestic fossil energy resources affordably, efficiently, and cleanly. The program funds early-stage R&D with academia, national laboratories, and the private sector to generate knowledge that industry can use to develop new products and processes. Program activities, including National Energy Technology Laboratory (NETL) R&D, focus on: 1) early-stage, high-risk fossil-fueled power systems and components that address challenges of reliability and resiliency, and improve the efficiency of existing and new units; 2) cross-cutting research to bridge fundamental science and early-stage applied engineering development for advanced materials and computational systems and the utilization of coal and CO2 for the production of critical materials and products; 3) early-stage R&D on transformational CO2 capture technologies applicable to both new and existing fossil-fueled facilities; and 4) CO2 storage, with emphasis on early-stage research focused on associated storage in depleted fields; offshore storage; and addressing the R&D challenges of injection. The program will also conduct early-stage research to generate new, novel understanding of shale geology and fracture dynamics for unconventional oil and natural gas resources. In addition, FER&D will conduct work focused on characterizing gas hydrates and will explore new concepts for novel technologies that could improve the reliability and operational efficiency of natural gas transmission, distribution, and storage facilities. NETL R&D includes funding for scientists, engineers, and project managers conducting both in-house and collaborative research. The NETL Infrastructure and Operations program supports the upkeep of NETL's lab footprint in three geographic locations: Morgantown, WV; Pittsburgh, PA; and Albany, OR. Program Direction provides for the Headquarters and NETL workforce responsible for the oversight and administration of FER&D.

The Strategic Petroleum Reserve (SPR) provides strategic and economic security against foreign and domestic disruptions in oil supplies via an emergency stockpile of crude oil. The program fulfills United States' obligations under the International Energy Program, which commits the United States to support the International Energy Agency through its coordinated energy emergency response plans, and provides a deterrent against energy supply disruptions. The FY 2021 Budget will support the SPR's operational readiness and drawdown capabilities of 4.4 MB/d. The program will perform cavern wellbore testing and remediation activities to ensure the availability of the SPR's crude oil inventory. Consistent with past budget requests, the Budget proposes to disestablish the Northeast Gasoline Supply Reserve (NGSR) and sell one million barrels of refined product currently held in the reserve. The NGSR is very costly to maintain, has not been used for its intended purpose, and is not a practical solution for a severe supply interruption, as, for example, the reserve would only be able to meet one day's worth of gasoline demand in the Northeast States. The Budget also proposes to sell 15 million barrels of SPR crude oil to fund other Department priorities, including the comprehensive remediation of the Navel Petroleum Reserve-1 site in Elk Hills, CA.

The SPR Petroleum Account funds activities related to the acquisition, transportation, and injection of petroleum products into the Strategic Petroleum Reserve (SPR), as well as costs related to the drawdown, sale, and delivery of petroleum products from the Reserve. The FY 2021 Budget proposes to deposit into the SPR Petroleum Account up to $19 million in proceeds from the proposed sale of the Northeast Gasoline Supply Reserve's one-million barrels of gasoline blendstock. Subsequently, the Budget requests no operational funding for the NGSR in the SPR account. The retained proceeds from the sale will be used to fund logistical costs associated with the drawdown, sale, and delivery of SPR crude oil, to include operations related to legislatively-mandated, multi-year sales of SPR crude oil. Proceeds in excess of the $19 million will contribute to deficit reduction.

The Energy Security and Infrastructure Modernization Fund was established in Section 404 of the Bipartisan Budget Act of 2015 to finance modernization of the Strategic Petroleum Reserve (SPR). Revenue raised through sales of SPR crude oil will support Life Extension 2 project investments needed to ensure the SPR can maintain its operational readiness capability, meet its mission requirements, and operate in an environmentally responsible manner. The FY 2020 budget cycle concluded the four-year (2017–2020) financing structure of multi-year oil sales that support the SPR's modernization program, therefore no budget request is made for FY 2021.

The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (Commission) regulates and oversees key interstate aspects of the electric power (including hydropower), natural gas and oil pipeline industries. The Commission assists consumers in obtaining economically efficient, safe, reliable, and secure energy services at a reasonable cost through appropriate regulatory and market means, and collaborative efforts. Regulated entities pay fees and charges sufficient to recover the Commission's full cost of operations.

Ensure Just and Reasonable Rates, Terms, and Conditions.—One of the Commission's fundamental statutory responsibilities is to ensure that rates, terms and conditions for wholesale sales and transmission of electric energy and natural gas in interstate commerce, as well as for transportation of oil by pipeline in interstate commerce, are just and reasonable and not unduly discriminatory or preferential. To fulfill this responsibility, the Commission uses a combination of market and regulatory means, complemented by oversight and enforcement measures. The Commission carries out this responsibility by issuing orders and establishing rules and policies that continually balance two important interests: protecting energy consumers against excessive rates, and providing an opportunity for regulated entities to recover their costs and earn a reasonable return on their investments. For example, the Commission seeks to improve the competitiveness of organized wholesale electric markets, which in turn encourages entry of new resources, spurs innovation and deployment of new technologies, improves operating performance, and exerts downward pressure on costs. Another example of the Commission's use of market and regulatory means in support of this goal is found in the Commission's requirements for public utility transmission providers to participate in an open and transparent regional transmission planning process. In addition, the Commission approves cost-based, and where appropriate, market-based rates for the interstate transportation of natural gas and oil on jurisdictional pipelines, and for the interstate transmission, and wholesale sales of electric energy. The Commission also reviews proposed mergers and other transactions in the electric industry to ensure that these proposals will not harm the public interest.

Oversight, surveillance and enforcement are essential complements to the Commission's approach to ensure that rates, terms and conditions of service are just and reasonable and not unduly discriminatory or preferential. The Commission conducts compliance audits, issues publicly available audit reports, and engages in formal and informal outreach efforts to promote effective compliance programs. Audits are planned and prioritized using a risk-based approach in order to maximize the impact of the Commission's resources. The Commission also conducts public and non-public investigations of possible violations of the statutes, regulations, rules, orders, and tariffs administered by the Commission. These investigations often rely upon oversight and surveillance that employ sophisticated technology to monitor market behavior. When violations of sufficient seriousness are discovered, the Commission attempts to resolve the resulting investigation through settlement with appropriate sanctions and future compliance improvements before initiating further enforcement proceedings.

Promote Safe, Reliable, and Secure Infrastructure.—The Commission plays an important role in the development of energy infrastructure that operates safely and reliably. One aspect of the Commission's role in energy infrastructure development stems from siting authority that includes licensing non-Federal hydropower projects, certificating interstate natural gas pipelines and storage projects, authorizing liquefied natural gas (LNG) facilities, and, in certain circumstances, permitting electric transmission lines. With the rising demand for natural gas and hydropower comes increased infrastructure construction, making it all the more important that FERC oversee the private sector development of safe, reliable, and secure infrastructure in a way that fosters economic and environmental benefits for the nation. The Commission reviews applications to construct, operate, or modify natural gas and hydropower infrastructure by ensuring that facilities are constructed and operated in compliance with the conditions of FERC orders. The Commission must respond to energy infrastructure applications with timely and well-reasoned decisions that balance a range of factors such as competing interests, legal requirements, and environmental impacts. The Commission encourages, and sometimes requires, project proponents to engage in early involvement with state and Federal agencies, Indian tribes, affected landowners and the public. The Commission's request provides continued funding for program contracts associated with statutorily required workload associated with hydropower and natural gas infrastructure, including environmental reviews, stakeholder engagement, and construction oversight.

The Commission also has an important role in ensuring that energy infrastructure, once authorized, continues to operate safely and reliably. FERC conducts timely safety reviews and inspections with rigorous requirements, thereby advancing the safety of non-federal hydropower projects and LNG facilities throughout their entire life cycle. The Commission relies on physical inspections for detecting and preventing potential catastrophic structural failures. In regards to jurisdictional LNG facilities, the Commission conducts construction and operational inspections to ensure that the facilities are constructed and operated in accordance with the conditions of Commission Orders, including safety measures and plans. Inspections at both types of facilities protect the public against the risks associated with incidents at the facilities. The 2021 request includes increased funding to advance the Commission's Part 12 inspection program and reviews of operational LNG facilities.

The Commission also oversees the development and review of mandatory reliability and security standards for the bulk-power system, as well as compliance with these standards. FERC promotes the reliable operation of the bulk-power system through oversight of the electric reliability organization (ERO). A Commission-certified ERO develops and enforces mandatory Reliability Standards, subject to the Commission's oversight and approval. The Reliability Standards address the planning and operation, as well as the cyber security and physical protection of the Nation's electric transmission grid. The Commission may also, upon its own motion or upon complaint, order the ERO to submit a proposed reliability standard or a modification of an existing reliability standard that addresses a specific reliability matter. To that end, the Commission incorporates performance data-driven, risk-informed decision making into its reliability oversight. In addition, FERC provides leadership, expertise, and assistance in identifying, communicating and developing comprehensive solutions to cyber and physical security risks to FERC-jurisdictional infrastructure. This is achieved through collaboration with federal and jurisdictional entities to identify, inform, assess, and address cyber and physical security threats and vulnerabilities, and to promote voluntary best practices that provide an important complement to FERC's related responsibilities for both regulatory requirements and enforcement. The Commission engages with the owners and operators of key critical infrastructure facilities to identify and share threat information, analyze system vulnerabilities, and assist with effective mitigation.

Mission Support through Organizational Excellence.—The public interest is best served when the Commission operates in an efficient, responsive and transparent manner. The Commission pursues this goal by maintaining processes and providing services in accordance with governing statutes, authoritative guidance, and prevailing best practices. These processes and services help prioritize resource allocations, make prudent investments that yield returns that directly benefit the agency's mission and use Commission resources in an efficient manner. The Commission also provides services, tools, and resources to equip employees to drive success and accomplish the agency's mission.

The Commission thus makes continued investments in its human capital, information technology (IT) resources, and physical infrastructure. The Commission allocates sixty-seven percent of its budget to directly cover the compensation costs of its employees on an annual basis. The Commission continues to focus its human capital efforts on the competencies and positions most affected by the challenges of new and emerging knowledge/skill demands and the loss of institutional knowledge. The Commission's overall IT infrastructure must meet the demands and keep pace with the continual changes in the technology landscape; proactively monitor and mitigate emerging cybersecurity threats; and adhere to federal requirements. In 2021, the Commission will make additional investments to continue its multi-year effort to update and modernize the Commission's information technology infrastructure and core mission and support systems to maintain a secure and reliable IT infrastructure to meet the needs of the Commission and provide innovative solutions to support employees. The Commission is also undergoing a multi-year renovation effort within its headquarters building. The renovation project will enable the agency to realize significant space savings. The FY 2021 request includes approximately $9.1 million to cover construction costs to continue the modernization effort.

Facilitating understanding of how the Commission carries out its responsibilities and maintaining public trust in the Commission are important components of the Commission's commitment to organizational excellence. Trust and understanding increase acceptance of Commission decisions. The Commission achieves this by maintaining processes and public information services that promote transparency and open communication with respect to the conduct of the Commission's business. Through the use of the Commission's eLibrary and eSubscriptions web pages, the public can obtain extensive information concerning documents both submitted to and issued by the Commission. The Commission also manages several social media sites to promote transparency and open communication.

The Northeast Home Heating Oil Reserve (NEHHOR) was established to provide an emergency supply of home heating oil for the Northeast States during times of inventory shortages and significant threats to immediate supply. However, the NEHHOR has not been used for its intended purpose since it was established and the Administration does not believe the reserve is a prudent ongoing use of taxpayer resources. For this reason, the Budget proposes to disestablish the NEHHOR in FY 2021 and sell the one million barrels of ultra-low sulfur distillate currently held in the reserve, with proceeds from the sale intended for deficit reduction.

Section 136 of the Energy Independence and Security Act of 2007 established a direct loan program with a loan authority up to $25 billion to support the development of advanced technology vehicles and associated components in the United States, known as the Advanced Technology Vehicles Manufacturing (ATVM) Loan Program. The Consolidated Security, Disaster, Assistance, and Continuing Appropriation Act of 2009, enacted on September 30, 2008, appropriated $7.5 billion in emergency designated budget authority for credit subsidy. The ATVM Loan Program provides loans to automobile and automobile part manufacturers for the cost of re-equipping, expanding, or establishing manufacturing facilities in the United States to produce advanced technology vehicles or qualified components and for associated engineering integration costs.

The FY 2021 Budget eliminates the ATVM Loan Program and proposes to cancel $4.3 billion in remaining emergency designated, appropriated, credit subsidy. LPO will utilize unobligated non-emergency designated balances carried forward to cover loan-portfolio monitoring and administrative expenses. In FY 2021, LPO will stop originating loans for the ATVM Loan Program but will continue to monitor the existing portfolio.

The Title 17 Innovative Technology Loan Guarantee Program (Title 17), as authorized by the Energy Policy Act of 2005 (the Act) and executed by the Department of Energy's (DOE) Loan Programs Office (LPO), encourages early commercial use of new or significantly improved technologies in energy projects. Projects supported by Title 17 loan guarantees must avoid, reduce, or sequester air pollutants or anthropogenic emissions of greenhouse gases; employ new or significantly improved technologies compared to commercial technologies in service in the United States at the time the guarantee is issued; and offer a reasonable prospect of repayment of the principal and interest on the guaranteed obligation. Section 1703 of the Act authorizes DOE to provide loan guarantees for innovative energy projects in categories including renewable energy systems, advanced nuclear facilities, coal gasification, carbon sequestration, energy efficiency, and various other types of projects. The FY 2021 Budget maintains current Administration policy to eliminate this program, while maintaining portfolio monitoring capabilities.

The FY 2021 Budget proposes to permanently cancel the approximate $161 million in remaining credit subsidy and all authority to guarantee loans appropriated in prior appropriations acts. In addition to $3,000,000 in appropriation offset by an estimated $3,000,000 in fee collections, LPO will utilize unobligated balances carried forward to cover loan portfolio monitoring and administrative expenses. In FY 2021, LPO will stop originating loans for the Title 17 Loan Guarantee Program but will continue to monitor the existing portfolio.

The American Reinvestment and Recovery Act of 2009 (Public Law 111–5) amended the program's authorizing statute and provided $2.5 billion in emergency designated credit subsidy for a temporary program to support loan guarantees for commercial or advanced renewable energy systems, electric power transmission systems, and leading edge biofuel projects. Authority for the temporary program to extend new loans expired September 30, 2011. Prior to the expiration of the authority, DOE provided loan guarantees to 28 projects totaling over $16 billion in loan volume. Four projects withdrew prior to disbursement of any funds. The FY 2021 Budget proposes to cancel all remaining unobligated, emergency designated, credit subsidy appropriated by the American Reinvestment and Recovery Act of 2009 (Public Law 111–5).

The Southeastern Power Administration (Southeastern) markets power generated at 22 U.S. Army Corps of Engineers' hydroelectric generating plants in an eleven State area of the Southeast. Power deliveries are made by means of contracting for use of transmission facilities owned by others.

Southeastern sells wholesale power primarily to publicly and cooperatively owned electric distribution utilities. Southeastern does not own or operate any transmission facilities. Its long-term contracts provide for periodic electric rate adjustments to ensure that the Federal Government recovers the costs of operations and the capital invested in power facilities, with interest, in keeping with statutory requirements. As in past years, the budget continues to provide funding for annual expenses and purchase power and wheeling expenses through discretionary offsetting collections derived from power receipts collected to recover those expenses.

Program Direction.—Provision is made for negotiation and administration of transmission and power contracts, collection of revenues, accounting and budget activities, development of wholesale power rates, amortization of the Federal power investment, energy efficiency and competitiveness program, investigation and planning of proposed water resources projects, scheduling and dispatch of power generation, scheduling storage and release of water, administration of contractual operation requirements, and determination of methods of operating generating plants individually and in coordination with others to obtain maximum utilization of resources.

Purchase Power and Wheeling.—Provision is made for the payment of wheeling fees and for the purchase of electricity in connection with the disposal of power under contracts with utility companies. Customers are encouraged to use alternative funding mechanisms, including customer advances and net billing to finance these activities. Offsetting collections to fund these ongoing operating services are also available up to 56 million in 2020. As of the end of FY 2019, Southeastern's PPW reserve balance was $14 million.

The Southwestern Power Administration (Southwestern) operates in a six-state area marketing and delivering renewable hydroelectric power produced at the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers' dams. Southwestern operates and maintains 1,380 miles of high voltage transmission lines, 26 substations/switching stations, associated power system controls, and communication sites. Southwestern also makes modifications and constructs additions to existing facilities.

Southwestern markets and delivers its power at wholesale rates primarily to public bodies and rural electric cooperatives. In compliance with statutory requirements, Southwestern's power sales contracts provide for periodic rate adjustments to ensure that the Federal Government recovers all costs of operations, other costs allocated to power, and the capital investments in power facilities, with interest. Southwestern is also responsible for scheduling and dispatching power and negotiating power sales contracts to meet changing customer load requirements. As in past years, the budget continues to provide funding for annual expenses and purchase power and wheeling expenses through discretionary offsetting collections derived from power receipts collected to recover those expenses.

Program Direction.—Provides compensation and all related expenses for personnel who market, deliver, operate, and maintain Southwestern's high-voltage interconnected power system and associated facilities, those that perform cyber and physical security roles, and those that administratively support these functions.

Operations and Maintenance.—Provides essential electrical and communications equipment replacements and upgrades, capitalized moveable equipment, technical services, and supplies and materials necessary for the safe, reliable, and cost effective operation and maintenance of the power system.

Purchase Power and Wheeling.—Provides for the purchase and delivery of energy to meet limited peaking power contractual obligations. Federal power receipts and alternative financing methods, including net billing, bill crediting, and customer advances are used to fund system-purchased power support and other contractual services. Southwestern has implemented a Purchase Power and Wheeling (PPW) risk mitigation strategy to ensure continuous operations during periods of significant drought. The strategy was developed consistent with existing authorities, and with the participation and support of Southwestern's power customers. Under this approach, Southwestern retains receipts from the recovery of purchase power and wheeling expenses within the 'up to' amount specified by Congress. The receipts retained are available until expended and are available only for PPW expenses. As of the end of FY 2019, Southwestern's PPW reserve balance was $86 million. Customers will provide other power resources and/or purchases for the remainder of their firm loads.

1The FY 2020 and FY 2021 Estimates assume spending authority from offsetting collections equals the 'up to' ceiling and that obligations incurred are the same amount as the spending authority. Actual spending authority from offsetting collections and actual obligations will be dependent upon variability in market prices for PPW and hydrological conditions in Southwestern's region, which vary significantly, are largely unpredictable, and can change quickly.

Construction.—Provides for replacement, addition or upgrade of existing infrastructure to sustain reliable delivery of power to its customers, contain annual maintenance costs, and improve overall efficiency.

Reimbursable Program.—This activity involves services provided by Southwestern to others under various types of reimbursable arrangements.

The Western Area Power Administration (WAPA) markets electric power in 15 central and western states from federally owned power plants operated primarily by the Bureau of Reclamation, the Army Corps of Engineers, and the International Boundary and Water Commission. WAPA operates and maintains about 17,000 circuit-miles of high-voltage transmission lines, more than 300 substations/switchyards and associated power system controls, and communication and electrical facilities for 15 separate power projects. WAPA also constructs additions and modifications to existing facilities.

In keeping with statutory requirements, WAPA's long-term power contracts allow for periodic rate adjustments to ensure that the Federal Government recovers costs of operations, other costs allocated to power, and the capital investment in power facilities, with interest.

Power is sold to nearly 700 wholesale customers, including DOE's National Labs, more than two dozen U.S. Department of Defense installations, municipalities, cooperatives, irrigation districts, public utility districts, other State and Federal Government agencies, and private utilities. Receipts are deposited in the Reclamation Fund, the Falcon and Amistad Operating and Maintenance Fund, the General Fund, the Colorado River Dam Fund, and the Colorado River Basins Power Marketing Fund.

As in past years, the budget continues to provide funding for annual expenses and purchase power and wheeling expenses through discretionary offsetting collections derived from power receipts collected to recover those expenses.

Systems Operation and Maintenance.—Provides essential electrical and communication equipment replacements and upgrades, capitalized moveable equipment, technical services, and supplies and materials necessary for safe reliable operation and cost-effective maintenance of the power systems.

Purchase Power and Wheeling.—Provision is made for the payment of wheeling fees and for the purchase of electricity in connection with the distribution of power under contracts with utility companies. Customers are encouraged to contract for power and wheeling on their own, or use alternative funding mechanisms, including customer advances, net billing, and bill crediting to finance these activities. Ongoing operating services are also available on a reimbursable basis.

WAPA has implemented a Purchase Power and Wheeling (PPW) risk mitigation strategy to ensure continuous operations during periods of significant drought. The strategy was developed consistent with existing authorities, and with the participation and support of WAPA power customers. Under this approach, WAPA retains receipts from the recovery of purchase power and wheeling expenses within the 'up to' amount specified by Congress. The receipts retained are available until expended, and are available only for purchase power and wheeling expenses. As of the end of FY 2019, WAPA's PPW reserve balance was $362 million.

System Construction.—WAPA's construction and rehabilitation activity emphasizes replacement and upgrades of existing infrastructure to sustain reliable power delivery to its customers, to contain annual maintenance costs, and to improve overall operational efficiency. WAPA will continue to participate in joint construction projects with customers to encourage more widespread transmission access.

Program Direction.—Provides compensation and all related expenses for the workforce that operates and maintains WAPA's high-voltage interconnected transmission system (systems operation and maintenance program), and those that plan, design, and supervise the construction of replacements, upgrades, and additions (system construction program) to the transmission facilities.

Reimbursable Program.—This program involves services provided by WAPA to others under various types of reimbursable arrangements. WAPA's reimbursable authority and partnerships were demonstrated following the severe hurricane damage in the U.S. Virgin Islands and Puerto Rico. WAPA responded to the urgent need to restore the energy infrastructure and access to power in the U.S. Virgin Islands and supported the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers' emergency power restoration efforts in Puerto Rico. WAPA also supported responses to natural disasters in Hawaii (volcanic eruption), Guam (typhoon) and California (wild fires).

WAPA will continue to spend out of the Colorado River Dam Fund for operations and maintenance activities associated with the Boulder Canyon Project via a reimbursable arrangement with the Interior Department's Bureau of Reclamation. The Colorado River Dam Fund is a revolving fund operated by the Bureau of Reclamation. Authority for WAPA to obligate directly from the Colorado River Dam Fund comes from section 104(a) of the Hoover Power Plant Act of 1984.

The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (the Act) provided Western Area Power Administration (WAPA) borrowing authority for the purpose of constructing, financing, facilitating, planning, operating, maintaining, or studying construction of new or upgraded electric power transmission lines and related facilities with at least one terminus within the area served by WAPA, and for delivering or facilitating the delivery of power generated by renewable energy resources. This authority to borrow from the United States Treasury is available to WAPA on a permanent, indefinite basis, with the amount of borrowing outstanding not to exceed $3.25 billion at any one time. WAPA established the Transmission Infrastructure Program (TIP) to manage and administer this borrowing authority and its related program requirements.

Pursuant to section 2 of the Act of June 18, 1954, as amended, Western Area Power Administration is requesting funding for the Falcon and Amistad Operating and Maintenance Fund to defray operations, maintenance, and emergency (OM&E) expenses for the hydroelectric facilities at Falcon and Amistad Dams on the Rio Grande River. Most of these funds will be made available to the United States Section of the International Boundary and Water Commission through a reimbursable agreement. Within the fund, $200,000 is for an emergency reserve that will remain unobligated unless unanticipated expenses arise. The budget provides funding for annual expenses through discretionary offsetting collections derived from power receipts collected to recover those expenses. The budget also provides authority to use customer advances. The contributed customer funds will finance the capital replacement requirements of the projects.

Western Area Power Administration's (WAPA) operation and maintenance (O&M) and power marketing expenses for the Colorado River Storage Project, the Seedskadee Project, the Dolores Project, the Olmsted Replacement Project, and the Fort Peck Project are financed from power revenues.

Colorado River Storage Project.—WAPA markets power and operates and maintains the power transmission facilities of the Colorado River Storage Project consisting of four major storage units: Glen Canyon on the Colorado River in Arizona, Flaming Gorge on the Green River in Utah, Navajo on the San Juan River in New Mexico, and the Wayne N. Aspinall unit on the Gunnison River in Colorado.

Seedskadee Project.—This project includes WAPA's expenses for O&M, power marketing, and transmission of hydroelectric power from the Fontenelle Dam power plant in southwestern Wyoming.

Dolores Project.—This project includes WAPA's expenses for O&M, power marketing, and transmission of hydroelectric power from power plants at McPhee Dam and Towaoc Canal in southwestern Colorado.

Fort Peck Project.—Revenues collected by WAPA are used to defray operation and maintenance and power marketing expenses associated with the power generation and transmission facilities of the Fort Peck Project, and WAPA operates and maintains the transmission system and performs power marketing functions.

Olmsted Replacement Project.—This project includes WAPA's expenses for power marketing of hydroelectric power from the Olmsted Power Plant in Northern Utah.

Equipment, Contracts and Related Expenses.—WAPA operates and maintains approximately 4,000 miles of transmission lines, substations, switchyards, communications, and control equipment associated with this fund. Wholesale power is provided to utilities over interconnected high-voltage transmission systems. In keeping with statutory requirements, long-term power contracts provide for periodic rate adjustments to ensure that the Federal Government recovers all costs of O&M, and all capital invested in power, with interest. This activity provides for the supplies, materials, services, capital equipment replacements, and additions, including communications and control equipment, purchase power, transmission and wheeling services, and interest payments to the U.S. Treasury.

Program Direction.—The personnel compensation and related expenses for all these activities are quantified under Program Direction.

Bonneville Power Administration (BPA) is a Federal electric power marketing agency in the Pacific Northwest. BPA markets hydroelectric power from 21 multipurpose water resource projects of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and 10 projects of the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation, plus some energy from non-Federal generating projects in the region. These generating resources and BPA's transmission system are operated as an integrated power system with operating and financial results combined and reported as the Federal Columbia River Power System (FCRPS). BPA provides about 50 percent of the region's electric energy supply and about three-fourths of the region's high-voltage electric power transmission capacity.

BPA is responsible for meeting the net firm power requirements of its requesting customers through a variety of means, including energy conservation programs, acquisition of renewable and other resources, and power exchanges with utilities both in and outside the region.

BPA finances its operations with a business-type budget under the Government Corporation Control Act, 31 U.S.C. 9101–10, on the basis of the self-financing authority provided by the Federal Columbia River Transmission System Act of 1974 (Transmission Act) (Public Law 93–454) and the U.S. Treasury borrowing authority provided by the Transmission Act, the Pacific Northwest Electric Power Planning and Conservation Act (Pacific Northwest Power Act) (Public Law 96–501) for energy conservation, renewable energy resources, capital fish facilities, and other purposes, the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (Public Law 111–5), and other legislation. Authority to borrow from the U.S. Treasury is available to the BPA on a permanent, indefinite basis. The amount of U.S. Treasury borrowing outstanding at any time cannot exceed $7.70 billion. BPA finances its approximate $4.3 billion annual cost of operations and investments primarily using power and transmission revenues and loans from the U.S. Treasury.

Operating Expenses-Transmission Services.—Provides for operating over 15,000 circuit miles of high-voltage transmissions lines and 261 substations, and for maintaining the facilities and equipment of the Bonneville transmission system in 2021.

Power Services.—Provides for the planning, contractual acquisition and oversight of reliable, cost effective resources. These resources are needed to serve BPA's portion of the region's forecasted net electric load requirements. This activity also includes protection, mitigation and enhancement of fish and wildlife affected by hydroelectric facilities on the Columbia River and its tributaries in accordance with the Pacific Northwest Power Act. This activity provides for payment of the operation and maintenance (O&M) costs allocated to power the 31 U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and U.S. Bureau of Reclamation hydro projects, amortization on the capital investment in power generating facilities, and irrigation assistance at U.S. Bureau of Reclamation facilities. This activity also provides for the planning, contractual acquisition and oversight of reliable, cost effective conservation. It also provides for extending the benefits of low-cost Federal power to the residential and small farm customers of investor-owned and publicly owned utilities, in accordance with the Pacific Northwest Power Act and for activities of the Pacific Northwest Electric Power and Conservation Planning Council required by the Pacific Northwest Power Act.

Interest.—Provides for payments to the U.S. Treasury for interest on U.S. Treasury borrowings to finance BPA's capital investments under $7.70 billion of U.S. Treasury borrowing authority provided by the Transmission Act; the Pacific Northwest Power Act for energy conservation, renewable energy resources, capital fish facilities, and other purposes; the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009; and other legislation. This interest category also includes interest on U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, BPA and U.S. Bureau of Reclamation appropriated debt.

Capital Investments—Transmission Services.—Provides for the planning, design and construction of transmission lines, substation and control system additions, replacements, and enhancements to the FCRPS transmission system for a reliable, efficient and cost-effective regional transmission system. Provides for planning, design, and construction work to repair or replace existing transmission lines, substations, control systems, and general facilities of the FCRPS transmission system.

Power Services.—Provides for direct funding of additions, improvements, and replacements at existing Federal hydroelectric projects in the Northwest. It also provides for capital investments to implement environmental activities, and protect, mitigate, and enhance fish and wildlife affected by hydroelectric facilities on the Columbia River and its tributaries, in accordance with the Pacific Northwest Power Act. This activity provides for the planning, contractual acquisition and oversight of reliable, cost effective conservation.

Capital Equipment/Capitalized Bond Premium.—Provides for capital information technologies, office furniture and equipment, and software capital development in support of all BPA programs. It also provides for bond premiums incurred for refinancing of bonds.

Total Capital Obligations.—The 2021 capital obligations are estimated to be $799.7 million.

Contingencies.—Although contingencies are not specifically funded, the need may arise to provide for purchase of power in low-water years; for repair and/or replacement of facilities affected by natural and man-made emergencies, including the resulting additional costs for contracting, construction, and operation and maintenance work; for unavoidable increased costs for the planned program due to necessary but unforeseen adjustments, including engineering and design changes, contractor and other claims and relocations; or for payment of a retrospective premium adjustment in excess nuclear property insurance.

Financing.—The Transmission Act provides for the use by BPA of all receipts, collections, and recoveries in cash from all sources, including the sale of bonds, to finance the annual budget programs of BPA. These receipts result primarily from the sale of power and transmission services. The Transmission Act also provides for authority to borrow from the U.S. Treasury at rates comparable to borrowings at open market rates for similar issues. BPA has $7.70 billion of U.S. Treasury borrowing authority provided by the Transmission Act; the Pacific Northwest Power Act for energy conservation, renewable energy resources, capital fish facilities, and other purposes; the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009; and other legislation. At the end of 2019, BPA had outstanding bonds with the U.S. Treasury of $5,280 million. At the end of 2019, BPA also had $7,593.3 million of non-Federal debt outstanding, including Energy Northwest bonds. BPA will rely primarily on its U.S. Treasury borrowing authority to finance capital projects, but may also elect to use cash reserves generated by revenues from customers or seek third party financing sources when feasible to finance some of these investments.

In 2019, BPA made payments to the Treasury of $1,064 million and also expects to make payments of $624 million in 2020 and $689 million in 2021. The 2021 payment is expected to be distributed as follows: interest on bonds and appropriations ($232 million), amortization ($402 million), and other ($55 million). BPA also received credits totaling approximately $124 million applied against its Treasury payments in 2019 to reflect amounts diverted to fish mitigation efforts, but not allocable to power, in the Columbia and Snake River systems.

BPA, with input from its stakeholders, considers other strategies to sustain funding for its infrastructure investment requirements as well. BPA's Financial Plan defines strategies and policies for guiding how BPA will manage risk and variability of electricity markets and water years. It also describes how BPA will continue to manage to ensure it meets its Treasury repayment responsibilities.

Direct Loans.—During 2021, no new direct loan obligations may be made.

Operating Results.—Total revenues are forecast at approximately $3.9 billion in 2021.

It should be noted that BPA's revenue forecasts are based on several critical assumptions about both the supply of and demand for Federal energy. During the operating year, deviation from the conditions assumed in a rate case may result in a variation in actual revenues of several hundred million dollars from the forecast.

Consistent with Administration policy, BPA will continue to fully recover, from the sale of electric power and transmission, funds sufficient to cover the full cost of Civil Service Retirement System and Post-Retirement Health Benefits for its employees. The entire cost of BPA and the power share of FCRPS U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and U.S. Bureau of Reclamation employees working under the Federal Employees Retirement System is fully recovered in wholesale electric power and transmission rates.

The Office of Inspector General (OIG) provides Department-wide (including the National Nuclear Security Administration and the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission) audit, inspection, and investigative functions to identify and recommend corrections for management and administrative deficiencies, which create conditions for existing or potential instances of fraud, waste, abuse or violations of law. The audit function provides financial and performance audits of programs and operations. The inspection function provides independent inspection and analysis of the performance of programs and operations. The investigative function provides for the detection and investigation of improper and illegal activities involving programs, personnel, and operations. Through these efforts, the OIG identifies opportunities for cost savings and operational efficiency; identifies programs that are not meeting performance expectations; recovers monies to the Department and the Treasury as a result of civil and criminal prosecutions; and identifies ways to make Departmental programs safer and more secure.
