      "title": "Appropriations for FY2005: Energy and Water Development",
      "summary": "The Energy and Water Development appropriations bill includes funding for civil works projects\nof\nthe Army Corps of Engineers (Corps), the Department of the Interior's Bureau of Reclamation\n(BOR), most of the Department of Energy (DOE), and a number of independent agencies. The Bush\nAdministration requested $27.94 billion for these programs for FY2005, compared with $27.26\nbillion appropriated for FY2004 ( P.L. 108-137 , and rescissions included in  P.L. 108-199 ). On June\n16 the House Appropriations Committee reported out its bill ( H.R. 4614 ) with $27.99\nbillion, and the bill passed the House on June 25. The Senate did not report out a separate Energy\nand Water Appropriations bill, and funding for these programs of $28.49 billion was included as\nDivision C of the omnibus Consolidated Appropriations Act ( H.R. 4818 ,  P.L. 108-447 ).\n  Key issues involving these programs included:\n   funding and progress of major water/ecosystem restoration initiatives such as\nFlorida Everglades and California \"Bay-Delta\" (CALFED);  \n   funding for the proposed national nuclear waste repository at Yucca Mountain,\nNevada;  \n   funding for developing a new nuclear warhead, the Robust Nuclear Earth\nPenetrator and for a \"Modern Pit Facility\" to build nuclear weapons components;\nand  \n   plans to reduce the time necessary to prepare the Nevada Test Site to resume\nnuclear weapons testing.  \n  Funding for the Yucca Mountain project was a major issue that prevented passage of a\nstand-alone bill, and the possibility of a year-long continuing resolution for Energy and Water\nprograms was widely discussed. However, appropriators agreed in the omnibus bill to fund the\nproject at the same level as in FY2004. Part of the funding for Yucca Mountain came from the\ncontroversial Nuclear Earth Penetrator and pit facility and the upgrading of the Nevada Test Site,\nwhich were cut from the budget.\n  This report will be updated as events warrant.",
