If an appeal is taken by the applicant, the district judge who rendered the judgment shall either issue a certificate of appealability or state the reasons why such a certificate should not issue.

If the district judge has denied the certificate, the applicant for the writ may then request issuance of the certificate by a circuit judge. If such a request is addressed to the court of appeals, it shall be deemed addressed to the judges thereof and shall be considered by a circuit judge or judges as the court deems appropriate. If no express request for a certificate is filed, the notice of appeal shall be deemed to constitute a request addressed to the judges of the court of appeals.

The applicant shall have the burden of rebutting the presumption of correctness by clear and convincing evidence. ``(2) If the applicant has failed to develop the factual basis of a claim in State court proceedings, the court shall not hold an evidentiary hearing on the claim unless the applicant shows that-- ``(A) the claim relies on-- ``(i) a new rule of constitutional law, made retroactive to cases on collateral review by the Supreme Court, that was previously unavailable; or ``(ii) a factual predicate that could not have been previously discovered through the exercise of due diligence; and ``(B) the facts underlying the claim would be sufficient to establish by clear and convincing evidence that but for constitutional error, no reasonable factfinder would have found the applicant guilty of the underlying offense.''; and (5) by adding at the end the following new subsections: ``(h) Except as provided in section 408 of the Controlled Substances Act, in all proceedings brought under this section, and any subsequent proceedings on review, the court may appoint counsel for an applicant who is or becomes financially unable to afford counsel, except as provided by a rule promulgated by the Supreme Court pursuant to statutory authority.

Appointment of counsel under this section shall be governed by section 3006A of title 18. ``A second or successive motion must be certified as provided in section 2244 by a panel of the appropriate court of appeals to contain-- ``(1) newly discovered evidence that, if proven and viewed in light of the evidence as a whole, would be sufficient to establish by clear and convincing evidence that no reasonable factfinder would have found the movant guilty of the offense; or ``(2) a new rule of constitutional law, made retroactive to cases on collateral review by the Supreme Court, that was previously unavailable.''. SEC. 106. LIMITS ON SECOND OR SUCCESSIVE APPLICATIONS. (a) Conforming Amendment to Section 2244(a).--Section 2244(a) of title 28, United States Code, is amended by striking ``and the petition'' and all that follows through ``by such inquiry.'' and inserting ``, except as provided in section 2255.''.

Mandatory stay of execution; duration; limits on stays of execution; successive petitions. ``2263. Filing of habeas corpus application; time requirements; tolling rules. ``2264. Scope of Federal review; district court adjudications. ``2265. Application to State unitary review procedure. ``2266. Limitation periods for determining applications and motions. ``Sec. 2261. Prisoners in State custody subject to capital sentence; appointment of counsel; requirement of rule of court or statute; procedures for appointment ``(a) This chapter shall apply to cases arising under section 2254 brought by prisoners in State custody who are subject to a capital sentence. It shall apply only if the provisions of subsections (b) and (c) are satisfied. ``(b) This chapter is applicable if a State establishes by statute, rule of its court of last resort, or by another agency authorized by State law, a mechanism for the appointment, compensation, and payment of reasonable litigation expenses of competent counsel in State post-conviction proceedings brought by indigent prisoners whose capital convictions and sentences have been upheld on direct appeal to the court of last resort in the State or have otherwise become final for State law purposes. The rule of court or statute must provide standards of competency for the appointment of such counsel. ``(c) Any mechanism for the appointment, compensation, and reimbursement of counsel as provided in subsection (b) must offer counsel to all State prisoners under capital sentence and must provide for the entry of an order by a court of record-- ``(1) appointing one or more counsels to represent the prisoner upon a finding that the prisoner is indigent and accepted the offer or is unable competently to decide whether to accept or reject the offer; ``(2) finding, after a hearing if necessary, that the prisoner rejected the offer of counsel and made the decision with an understanding of its legal consequences; or ``(3) denying the appointment of counsel upon a finding that the prisoner is not indigent. ``(d) No counsel appointed pursuant to subsections (b) and (c) to represent a State prisoner under capital sentence shall have previously represented the prisoner at trial or on direct appeal in the case for which the appointment is made unless the prisoner and counsel expressly request continued representation. ``(e) The ineffectiveness or incompetence of counsel during State or Federal post-conviction proceedings in a capital case shall not be a ground for relief in a proceeding arising under section 2254. This limitation shall not preclude the appointment of different counsel, on the court's own motion or at the request of the prisoner, at any phase of State or Federal post-conviction proceedings on the basis of the ineffectiveness or incompetence of counsel in such proceedings. ``Sec. 2262. Mandatory stay of execution; duration; limits on stays of execution; successive petitions ``(a) Upon the entry in the appropriate State court of record of an order under section 2261(c), a warrant or order setting an execution date for a State prisoner shall be stayed upon application to any court that would have jurisdiction over any proceedings filed under section 2254. The application shall recite that the State has invoked the post-conviction review procedures of this chapter and that the scheduled execution is subject to stay. ``(b) A stay of execution granted pursuant to subsection (a) shall expire if-- ``(1) a State prisoner fails to file a habeas corpus application under section 2254 within the time required in section 2263; ``(2) before a court of competent jurisdiction, in the presence of counsel, unless the prisoner has competently and knowingly waived such counsel, and after having been advised of the consequences, a State prisoner under capital sentence waives the right to pursue habeas corpus review under section 2254; or ``(3) a State prisoner files a habeas corpus petition under section 2254 within the time required by section 2263 and fails to make a substantial showing of the denial of a Federal right or is denied relief in the district court or at any subsequent stage of review. ``(c) If one of the conditions in subsection (b) has occurred, no Federal court thereafter shall have the authority to enter a stay of execution in the case, unless the court of appeals approves the filing of a second or successive application under section 2244(b). ``Sec. 2263. Filing of habeas corpus application; time requirements; tolling rules ``(a) Any application under this chapter for habeas corpus relief under section 2254 must be filed in the appropriate district court not later than 180 days after final State court affirmance of the conviction and sentence on direct review or the expiration of the time for seeking such review. ``(b) The time requirements established by subsection (a) shall be tolled-- ``(1) from the date that a petition for certiorari is filed in the Supreme Court until the date of final disposition of the petition if a State prisoner files the petition to secure review by the Supreme Court of the affirmance of a capital sentence on direct review by the court of last resort of the State or other final State court decision on direct review; ``(2) from the date on which the first petition for post-conviction review or other collateral relief is filed until the final State court disposition of such petition; and ``(3) during an additional period not to exceed 30 days, if-- ``(A) a motion for an extension of time is filed in the Federal district court that would have jurisdiction over the case upon the filing of a habeas corpus application under section 2254; and ``(B) a showing of good cause is made for the failure to file the habeas corpus application within the time period established by this section. ``Sec. 2264. Scope of Federal review; district court adjudications ``(a) Whenever a State prisoner under capital sentence files a petition for habeas corpus relief to which this chapter applies, the district court shall only consider a claim or claims that have been raised and decided on the merits in the State courts, unless the failure to raise the claim properly is-- ``(1) the result of State action in violation of the Constitution or laws of the United States; ``(2) the result of the Supreme Court's recognition of a new Federal right that is made retroactively applicable; or ``(3) based on a factual predicate that could not have been discovered through the exercise of due diligence in time to present the claim for State or Federal post-conviction review. ``(b) Following review subject to subsections (a), (d), and (e) of section 2254, the court shall rule on the claims properly before it. ``Sec. 2265. Application to State unitary review procedure ``(a) For purposes of this section, a `unitary review' procedure means a State procedure that authorizes a person under sentence of death to raise, in the course of direct review of the judgment, such claims as could be raised on collateral attack. This chapter shall apply, as provided in this section, in relation to a State unitary review procedure if the State establishes by rule of its court of last resort or by statute a mechanism for the appointment, compensation, and payment of reasonable litigation expenses of competent counsel in the unitary review proceedings, including expenses relating to the litigation of collateral claims in the proceedings. The rule of court or statute must provide standards of competency for the appointment of such counsel. ``(b) To qualify under this section, a unitary review procedure must include an offer of counsel following trial for the purpose of representation on unitary review, and entry of an order, as provided in section 2261(c), concerning appointment of counsel or waiver or denial of appointment of counsel for that purpose. No counsel appointed to represent the prisoner in the unitary review proceedings shall have previously represented the prisoner at trial in the case for which the appointment is made unless the prisoner and counsel expressly request continued representation. ``(c) Sections 2262, 2263, 2264, and 2266 shall apply in relation to cases involving a sentence of death from any State having a unitary review procedure that qualifies under this section. References to State `post-conviction review' and `direct review' in such sections shall be understood as referring to unitary review under the State procedure.

SEC. 206. PROCEDURE FOR ISSUANCE OF RESTITUTION ORDER. (a) In General.--Section 3664 of title 18, United States Code, is amended to read as follows: ``Sec. 3664. Procedure for issuance and enforcement of order of restitution ``(a) For orders of restitution under this title, the court shall order the probation officer to obtain and include in its presentence report, or in a separate report, as the court may direct, information sufficient for the court to exercise its discretion in fashioning a restitution order. The report shall include, to the extent practicable, a complete accounting of the losses to each victim, any restitution owed pursuant to a plea agreement, and information relating to the economic circumstances of each defendant. If the number or identity of victims cannot be reasonably ascertained, or other circumstances exist that make this requirement clearly impracticable, the probation officer shall so inform the court. ``(b) The court shall disclose to both the defendant and the attorney for the Government all portions of the presentence or other report pertaining to the matters described in subsection (a) of this section. ``(c) The provisions of this chapter, chapter 227, and Rule 32(c) of the Federal Rules of Criminal Procedure shall be the only rules applicable to proceedings under this section. ``(d)(1) Upon the request of the probation officer, but not later than 60 days prior to the date initially set for sentencing, the attorney for the Government, after consulting, to the extent practicable, with all identified victims, shall promptly provide the probation officer with a listing of the amounts subject to restitution. ``(2) The probation officer shall, prior to submitting the presentence report under subsection (a), to the extent practicable-- ``(A) provide notice to all identified victims of-- ``(i) the offense or offenses of which the defendant was convicted; ``(ii) the amounts subject to restitution submitted to the probation officer; ``(iii) the opportunity of the victim to submit information to the probation officer concerning the amount of the victim's losses; ``(iv) the scheduled date, time, and place of the sentencing hearing; ``(v) the availability of a lien in favor of the victim pursuant to subsection (m)(1)(B); and ``(vi) the opportunity of the victim to file with the probation officer a separate affidavit relating to the amount of the victim's losses subject to restitution; and ``(B) provide the victim with an affidavit form to submit pursuant to subparagraph (A)(vi). ``(3) Each defendant shall prepare and file with the probation officer an affidavit fully describing the financial resources of the defendant, including a complete listing of all assets owned or controlled by the defendant as of the date on which the defendant was arrested, the financial needs and earning ability of the defendant and the defendant's dependents, and such other information that the court requires relating to such other factors as the court deems appropriate. ``(4) After reviewing the report of the probation officer, the court may require additional documentation or hear testimony. The privacy of any records filed, or testimony heard, pursuant to this section shall bemaintained to the greatest extent possible, and such records may be filed or testimony heard in camera. ``(5) If the victim's losses are not ascertainable by the date that is 10 days prior to sentencing, the attorney for the Government or the probation officer shall so inform the court, and the court shall set a date for the final determination of the victim's losses, not to exceed 90 days after sentencing. If the victim subsequently discovers further losses, the victim shall have 60 days after discovery of those losses in which to petition the court for an amended restitution order. Such order may be granted only upon a showing of good cause for the failure to include such losses in the initial claim for restitutionary relief. ``(6) The court may refer any issue arising in connection with a proposed order of restitution to a magistrate judge or special master for proposed findings of fact and recommendations as to disposition, subject to a de novo determination of the issue by the court. ``(e) Any dispute as to the proper amount or type of restitution shall be resolved by the court by the preponderance of the evidence. The burden of demonstrating the amount of the loss sustained by a victim as a result of the offense shall be on the attorney for the Government. The burden of demonstrating the financial resources of the defendant and the financial needs of the defendant's dependents, shall be on the defendant. The burden of demonstrating such other matters as the court deems appropriate shall be upon the party designated by the court as justice requires. ``(f)(1)(A) In each order of restitution, the court shall order restitution to each victim in the full amount of each victim's losses as determined by the court and without consideration of the economic circumstances of the defendant. ``(B) In no case shall the fact that a victim has received or is entitled to receive compensation with respect to a loss from insurance or any other source be considered in determining the amount of restitution. ``(2) Upon determination of the amount of restitution owed to each victim, the court shall, pursuant to section 3572, specify in the restitution order the manner in which, and the schedule according to which, the restitution is to be paid, in consideration of-- ``(A) the financial resources and other assets of the defendant, including whether any of these assets are jointly controlled; ``(B) projected earnings and other income of the defendant; and ``(C) any financial obligations of the defendant; including obligations to dependents. ``(3)(A) A restitution order may direct the defendant to make a single, lump-sum payment, partial payments at specified intervals, in-kind payments, or a combination of payments at specified intervals and in-kind payments. ``(B) A restitution order may direct the defendant to make nominal periodic payments if the court finds from facts on the record that the economic circumstances of the defendant do not allow the payment of any amount of a restitution order, and do not allow for the payment of the full amount of a restitution order in the foreseeable future under any reasonable schedule of payments. ``(4) An in-kind payment described in paragraph (3) may be in the form of-- ``(A) return of property; ``(B) replacement of property; or ``(C) if the victim agrees, services rendered to the victim or a person or organization other than the victim. ``(g)(1) No victim shall be required to participate in any phase of a restitution order. ``(2) A victim may at any time assign the victim's interest in restitution payments to the Crime Victims Fund in the Treasury without in any way impairing the obligation of the defendant to make such payments. ``(h) If the court finds that more than 1 defendant has contributed to the loss of a victim, the court may make each defendant liable for payment of the full amount of restitution or may apportion liability among the defendants to reflect the level of contribution to the victim's loss and economic circumstances of each defendant. ``(i) If the court finds that more than 1 victim has sustained a loss requiring restitution by a defendant, the court may provide for a different payment schedule for each victim based on the type and amount of each victim's loss and accounting for the economic circumstances of each victim. In any case in which the United States is a victim, the court shall ensure that all other victims receive full restitution before the United States receives any restitution. ``(j)(1) If a victim has received compensation from insurance or any other source with respect to a loss, the court shall order that restitution be paid to the person who provided or is obligated to provide the compensation, but the restitution order shall provide that all restitution of victims required by the order be paid to the victims before any restitution is paid to such a provider of compensation. ``(2) Any amount paid to a victim under an order of restitution shall be reduced by any amount later recovered as compensatory damages for the same loss by the victim in-- ``(A) any Federal civil proceeding; and ``(B) any State civil proceeding, to the extent provided by the law of the State. ``(k) A restitution order shall provide that the defendant shall notify the court and the Attorney General of any material change in the defendant's economic circumstances that might affect the defendant's ability to pay restitution. The court may also accept notification of a material change in the defendant's economic circumstances from the United States or from the victim. The Attorney General shall certify to the court that the victim or victims owed restitution by the defendant have been notified of the change in circumstances.

TITLE V--NUCLEAR, BIOLOGICAL, AND CHEMICAL WEAPONS RESTRICTIONS Subtitle A--Nuclear Materials SEC. 501. FINDINGS AND PURPOSE. (a) Findings.--The Congress finds that-- (1) nuclear materials, including byproduct materials, can be used to create radioactive dispersal devices that are capable of causing serious bodily injury as well as substantial damage to property and to the environment; (2) the potential use of nuclear materials, including byproduct materials, enhances the threat posed by terrorist activities and thereby has a greater effect on the security interests of the United States; (3) due to the widespread hazards presented by the threat of nuclear contamination, as well as nuclear bombs, the United States has a strong interest in ensuring that persons who are engaged in the illegal acquisition and use of nuclear materials, including byproduct materials, are prosecuted for their offenses; (4) the threat that nuclear materials will be obtained and used by terrorist and other criminal organizations has increased substantially since the enactment in 1982 of the legislation that implemented the Convention on the Physical Protection of Nuclear Material, codified at section 831 of title 18, United States Code; (5) the successful efforts to obtain agreements from other countries to dismantle nuclear weapons have resulted in increased packaging and transportation of nuclear materials, thereby decreasing the security of such materials by increasing the opportunity for unlawful diversion and theft; (6) the trafficking in the relatively more common, commercially available, and usable nuclear and byproduct materials creates the potential for significant loss of life and environmental damage; (7) report trafficking incidents in the early 1990's suggest that the individuals involved in trafficking in these materials from Eurasia and Eastern Europe frequently conducted their black market sales of these materials within the Federal Republic of Germany, the Baltic States, the former Soviet Union, Central Europe, and to a lesser extent in the Middle European countries; (8) the international community has become increasingly concerned over the illegal possession of nuclear and nuclear byproduct materials; (9) the potentially disastrous ramifications of increased access to nuclear and nuclear byproduct materials pose such a significant threat that the United States must use all lawful methods available to combat the illegal use of such materials; (10) the United States has an interest in encouraging United States corporations to do business in the countries that comprised the former Soviet Union, and in other developing democracies; (11) protection of such United States corporations from threats created by the unlawful use of nuclear materials is important to the success of the effort to encourage business ventures in these countries, and to further the foreign relations and commerce of the United States; (12) the nature of nuclear contamination is such that it may affect the health, environment, and property of United States nationals even if the acts that constitute the illegal activity occur outside the territory of the United States, and are primarily directed toward foreign nationals; and (13) there is presently no Federal criminal statute that provides adequate protection to United States interests from nonweapons grade, yet hazardous radioactive material, and from the illegal diversion of nuclear materials that are held for other than peaceful purposes. (b) Purpose.--The purpose of this title is to provide Federal law enforcement agencies with the necessary means and the maximum authority permissible under the Constitution to combat the threat of nuclear contamination and proliferation that may result from the illegal possession and use of radioactive materials. SEC. 502. EXPANSION OF SCOPE AND JURISDICTIONAL BASES OF NUCLEAR MATERIALS PROHIBITIONS.

(b) Fees and Expenses and Capital Cases.--Section 408(q)(10) of the Controlled Substances Act (21 U.S.C. 848(q)(10)) is amended to read as follows: ``(10)(A) Compensation shall be paid to attorneys appointed under this subsection at a rate of not more than $125, per hour for in-court and out-of-court time. Not less than 3 years after the date of the enactment of the Antiterrorism and Effective Death Penalty Act of 1996, the Judicial Conference is authorized to raise the maximum for hourly payment specified in the paragraph up to the aggregate of the overall average percentages of the adjustments in the rates of pay for the General Schedule made pursuant to section 5305 of title 5 on or after such date.

That the Senate recede from its disagreement to the amendment of the House to the title of the bill and agree to the same with an amendment as follows: In lieu of the matter proposed to be inserted by the amendment of the House to the title of the bill, insert the following: ``An Act to deter terrorism, provide justice for victims, provide for an effective death penalty, and for other purposes.''. And the House agree to the same. Henry Hyde, Bill McCollum, Steven Schiff, Steve Buyer, Bob Barr, Charles Schumer, Managers on the part of the House. Orrin G. Hatch, Strom Thurmond, Alan K. Simpson, Managers on the part of the Senate. JOINT EXPLANATORY STATEMENT OF THE COMMITTEE OF CONFERENCE The managers on the part of the Senate and the House at the conference on the disagreeing votes of the two Houses on the bill (S. 735), to prevent and punish terrorism, submit the following joint statement to the Senate and the House in explanation of the effect of the action agreed upon by the managers and recommended in the accompanying conference report. TITLE I--HABEAS CORPUS REFORM Sections 101-108--Sections 601-608 of the Senate bill and sections 901-908 of the House amendment are identical, and therefor were not modified by the conference committee. This title incorporates reforms to curb the abuse of the statutory writ of habeas corpus, and to address the acute problems of unnecessary delay and abuse in capital cases. It sets a one year limitation on an application for a habeas writ and revises the procedures for consideration of a writ in federal court. It provides for the exhaustion of state remedies and requires deference to the determinations of state courts that are neither ``contrary to,'' nor an ``unreasonable application of,'' clearly established federal law. The revision in capital habeas practice also sets a time limit within which the district court must act on a writ, and provides the government with the right to seek a writ of mandamus if the district court refuses to act within the allotted time period. Successive petitions must be approved by a panel of the court of appeals and are limited to those petitions that contain newly discovered evidence that would seriously undermine the jury's verdict or that involve new constitutional rights that have been retroactively applied by the Supreme Court. In capital cases, procedures are established for the appointment of counsel, conduct of evidentiary hearings, and the application of the procedures to state unitary review systems. Courts are directed to give habeas petitions in capital cases priority status and to decide those petitions within specified time periods. These procedures apply both to state and federal capital cases. TITLE II--JUSTICE FOR VICTIMS Subtitle A--Mandatory Victim Restitution Sections 201-211--Senate recedes to section 806 of the House amendment, with modification. The modification includes the Senate amendments to the bill H.R. 665, passed by the Senate on December 22, 1995, together with perfecting amendments. The managers intend that the Report of the Senate Committee on the Judiciary to accompany H.R. 665 (S.Rept. 104- 179) should serve as the legislative history for this subtitle. Subtitle B--Jurisdiction for Lawsuits Against Terrorist States Section 221--House section 803 recedes to Senate section 206, with modifications. This subtitle provides that nations designated as state sponsors of terrorism under section 6(j) of the Export Administration Act of 1979 will be amenable to suit in U.S. courts for terrorist acts. It permits U.S. federal courts to hear claims seeking money damages for personal injury or death against such nations and arising from terrorist acts they commit, or direct to be committed, against American citizens or nationals outside of the foreign state's territory, and for such acts within the state's territory if the state involved has refused to arbitrate the claim. Subtitle C--Assistance to Victims of Terrorism This subtitle incorporates several provisions of the Senate bill and the House amendment addressing the needs of victims of terrorism. Section 232--Victims of Terrorism Act. House recedes to Senate Title X, with modifications to reflect the Senate's later action on a similar provision in its December 22, 1995 amendment H.R. 665. This provision authorizes supplemental grants through the States to compensate and assist victims of terrorism and mass violence. Section 233--Compensation of victims of terrorism. Senate recedes to House section 802, with a modification to include Senate section 902. Section 234--Crime Victims Fund. This provision consists of section 201 of the Senate amendment to H.R. 665, passed by the Senate December 22, 1995. The section prohibits the payment of federally-funded victim assistance to any individual who is delinquent in paying a fine, restitution, or other monetary penalty imposed pursuant to a conviction for a crime in federal court. To ensure that a burden is not imposed on state victim assistance programs, as well as to ensure that no person is wrongfully denied assistance, this prohibition would not take effect until such time as a criminal debt tracking system is in place. The managers do not intend that this provision in any way affect the development of the tracking system referenced by this section. Section 235--Closed circuit televised court proceedings for victims of crime. Senate recedes to section 808 of the House amendment, with a modification. This section requires, in certain cases when the venue of a criminal trial is moved, that the court provide closed circuit television coverage of the trial to the original venue for the benefit of victims. The Senate modification is intended to ensure that the court retains control over the signal, provides contempt penalties for violating a court order related to restrictions on the signal, removes the prohibition on the use of appropriated funds, and sunsets the provision upon implementation by the federal courts of any rules they may promulgate to effectuate the policy addressed by this section. The managers do not intend that this provision in any way effect either the general policy of Rule 53 of the Federal Rules of Criminal Procedure (prohibiting photography and broadcasting in federal criminal court proceedings), or the authority of the federal courts to regulate and prescribe rules for conduct in federal courts. Section 236--This section makes a technical correction to the Victims of Crime Act. TITLE III--INTERNATIONAL TERRORISM PROHIBITIONS Subtitle A--Prohibition on International Terrorist Fundraising Sections 301-303--House recedes to Senate sections 401, with modifications. This subtitle adds to federal law prohibitions on providing material support to, or soliciting or raising funds for, foreign organizations designated by the Secretary of State, in consultation with the Secretary of the Treasury and the Attorney General, to be terrorist organizations. Importantly, the proposed designations of organizations would be subject to congressional approval. Upon notification to Congress of the intent to designate a foreign group as a terrorist organization, the Treasury Secretary will be authorized to order the freezing of such group's American- held financial assets. The designation, when final, would be subject to judicial review, based solely on the administrative record created, including any national security information used to make the designation. The designation would expire after two years, but could be extended for additional two year periods. Subtitle B--Prohibitions on Assistance to Terrorist States Section 321--Senate recedes to House amendment title XV. This section provides criminal penalties for engaging in financial transactions with terrorist states by United States citizens, nationals, residents, and corporations. Section 322--House recedes to Senate section 903. This section, including a perfecting amendment to the Senate provision, instructs the Administrator of the FAA to require identical security measures for foreign flagged carriers serving airports in the United States as are required of U.S. carriers. In 1990, after the tragic bombing of Pan Am Flight 103, Congress revamped the aviation security laws. It was the intent of Congress to ensure that all Americans would be guaranteed adequate protection from terrorist attacks on international flights arriving in or departing from the United States, regardless of the nationality of the air carrier providing the service. The 1990 law required the FAA to ensure that foreign carriers operated under security programs providing a similar level of safety to that of programs required of U.S. carriers. Unfortunately, since the 1990 enactment, ambiguity has developed over Congressional intent regarding the meaning of the term ``similar''. This section is intended to resolve that ambiguity. It is the intent of the managers that the FAA establish a base floor level of necessary security measures for international flights which all foreign and domestic carriers will be required to employ. It is not the intent that any measures currently required of domestic carriers be dispensed with. Nor is it the intent of the managers to in any way restrict the ability of the FAA to impose additional measures on any airline at any time that a particular threat warrants additional measures. Additionally, the managers acknowledge that the House Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure and the Senate Committee on Commerce, Science and Transportation have jurisdiction over aviation security issues. Section 323--Senate recedes to House amendment section 103. This provision amends section 2339A of title 18, United States Code, (as added by section 120005 of the Violent Crime Control and Law Enforcement Act of 1994 (P.L. 103-322)) by adding sections 956 and 2332b of title 18 to the list of predicate offenses for which an individual can be prosecuted for providing material support. It is important to note that the material support being provided, which triggers this section, need not be to a designated terrorist organization. The support must be given in furtherance of the specifically listed criminal offenses, however. This section also deletes subsection (c) of section 2339A of title 18, United States Code. The subsection being repealed provided an unworkable restriction on the investigation of crimes under section 2339A. This section also redefines the term ``material support or resources'' to mean ``currency or other financial securities, financial services, lodging, training, safehouses, false documentation or identification, communications equipment, facilities, weapons, lethal substances, explosives, personnel, transportation, and other physical assets, except medicine or religious materials.'' ``Medicine'' should be understood to be limited to the medicine itself, and does not include the vast array of medical supplies. ``Religious materials'' should not be read to include anything that could be used to cause physical injury to any person. It is meant to be limited to those religious articles typically used during customary and time-honored rituals or teachings of a particular faith, denomination, or sect. Section 324--House recedes to Senate section 201. This section states Congressional findings and urges the President to establish a White House office to coordinate U.S. counterterrorism efforts and to organize an international conference to develop multinational responses to the threat of international terrorism. Section 325--House recedes to Senate section 202. This section prohibits U.S. aid to countries that provide aid to terrorist nations, but permits the President to waive the prohibition, after notifying Congress, if he determines that such waiver is in the national interest. Section 326--House recedes to Senate section 203. This section prohibits U.S. aid to countries that provide military equipment to terrorist nations. It, too, permits the President to waive the prohibition, after notifying Congress, if he determines that such waiver is in the national interest. Section 327--House recedes to Senate section 204. This section requires U.S. opposition to international financial institutions' assistance to countries that support terrorism. Section 328--House amendment section 702 recedes to Senate section 205. This section eases restrictions for U.S. antiterrorism assistance to foreign nations. Section 329--House recedes to Senate section 208. This section defines, for purposes of this title, ``assistance'' as any grant, concessional sale, guaranty, inter alia, to the government of any foreign country, whether in the form of loan, lease, credit, or debt relief. Section 330--House recedes to Senate section 907. This section prohibits the export of defense articles to countries decertified by the President no later than May 15 of the calendar year preceding the fiscal year for which the prohibition applies, that the countries are not cooperating with U.S. antiterrorism efforts; provides a presidential waiver for specific transactions. TITLE IV--TERRORIST AND CRIMINAL ALIEN REMOVAL AND EXCLUSION Subtitle A--Removal of Alien Terrorists Section 401--House recedes to Senate section 301, with modifications. This section creates special procedures to ensure that aliens within the United States whom the government believes to be engaging in terrorist activity can be removed from the United States without disclosing national security secrets. The provision establishes a removal court comprised of sitting district court judges appointed by the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court. This court would have the authority to hear deportation cases involving alien terrorists and would ensure, through the use of a limited ex parte procedure, that the United States can expeditiously deport alien terrorists without disclosing national security secrets to the alien or to their criminal partners. The alien's due process rights are protected by requiring that an unclassified summary of the evidence be provided to the alien, sufficient to enable the alien to prepare a defense, and that the judge can only order the deportation based upon the evidence introduced at the hearing, taken as a whole. The removal of alien terrorists from the United States, and the prevention of alien terrorists from entering the U.S. in the first place, present among the most intractable problems of immigration enforcement. The stakes in such cases are compelling: protecting the very lives and safety of U.S. residents, and preserving the national security. Yet, alien terrorists, while deportable under section 241(a)(4)(D) of the INA, are able to exploit many of the substantive and procedural provisions available to all deportable aliens in order to delay their removal from the U.S. In addition, alien terrorists, including representatives and members of terrorist organizations, often are able to enter the U.S. under a legitimate guise, despite the fact that their entry is inimical to the national interests of the U.S. In several noteworthy cases, the Department of Justice has consumed years of time and hundreds of thousands (if not millions) of dollars seeking to secure the removal of such aliens from the U.S. Starting in the first Administration of President Reagan, the Department of Justice has sought reform of immigration law and procedures to better enable this country to protect itself against the threat of alien terrorists. The chief target of these reforms are the statutory and administrative protections given to such aliens, many of which are not required by the due process clause of the Fifth or Fourteenth Amendment or any other provision of law, that enable alien terrorists to delay their removal from the U.S. The need for special procedures to adjudicate deportation charges against alien terrorists is manifest. Terrorist organizations have developed sophisticated international networks that allow their members great freedom of movement and opportunity to strike, including within the United States. They are attracting a more qualified cadre of adherents with increasing technical skills. Several terrorist groups have established footholds within immigrant communities in the U.S. The nature of these groups tend to shield the participants from effective counterterrorism efforts--including the most basic measure of removing them from our soil. The U.S. relies heavily upon close and continued cooperation of friendly nations who provide information on the identity of such terrorists. Such information will only be forthcoming if its sources continue to be protected. Thus, it is essential to the national security of the U.S. that procedures be established to permit the use of classified information in appropriate cases to establish the deportability of an alien terrorist. Such procedures also must be crafted to meet constitutional requirements. The government's efforts to safeguard lives and property and to protect the national security may be contested on the grounds that they conflict with the procedural rights of aliens. The interests of the government must therefore be balanced against the legitimate rights of those privileged to be present within the United States.\1\ --------------------------------------------------------------------------- \1\ Fiallo v.

INS, 539 F. 2d 1220 (9th Cir.), cert. denied, 430 U.S. 918 (1976) (applying rational basis test to equal protection claim for impermissible classification of aliens). --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Subtitle B--Exclusion of Members and Representatives of Terrorist - Organizations Section 411--House recedes to Senate section 210, with modification. This section permits, as a new basis for alien exclusion, the denial of entry into the United States to any person who is a representative or member of a designated foreign terrorist organization. Section 412--House amendment section 632 recedes to Senate section 209 with modifications. This section grants the Secretary of State discretion to waive, in the case of non- immigrant visa applications by excludable aliens, the requirement to inform each alien of the denial of the application and the grounds for such denial. This section also provides that no explanation of the denial need be given to aliens excluded on the basis of their terrorist or other criminal activity. Section 413--Senate recedes to House amendment section 612. This section amends section 208 to provide that an alien may not be granted asylum if the alien is excludable under the provisions of section 212(a), or deportable under the provisions of section 241(a) relating to alien terrorists. Section 414--Senate recedes to House amendment section 623. This section amends section 241 of the INA by adding a new subsection (d). Subsection (d) provides that an alien present in the United States, who has not been admitted after inspection in accordance with section 235 of the INA, is deemed to be seeking entry and admission and shall be subject to examination and exclusion in accordance with Chapter 4 of Title II of the INA. Such an alien must be provided the opportunity to establish that he or she has been lawfully admitted to the U.S. This section by operation of law, returns ``to the border'' any alien who has entered the United States unlawfully, regardless of the duration of his or her presence in the United States. Subtitle C--Modifications to Asylum Procedures Section 421--Senate recedes to House amendment section 611. This section bars the granting of asylum to an alien excludable as a terrorist unless the Attorney General determines that the individual seeking asylum will not be a danger to the security of the United States. Section 422--Senate recedes to House amendment section 621. This section amends section 235(b), regarding the inspection and exclusion of aliens arriving at a port of entry. New section 235(b)(1) provides that if an examining immigration officer determines that an alien is inadmissible under section 212(a)(6)(C) (fraud or misrepresentation) or 212(a)(7) (lack of valid documents), the officer may order the alien removed without further hearing or review. An alien who states a fear of persecution, or wishes to apply for asylum, will be referred for interview by an asylum officer. If the officer finds that the alien has a credible fear of persecution, the alien shall be detained for further consideration of the application for asylum. If the alien does not meet this standard, and the officer's decision is upheld by a supervisory asylum officer, the alien will be ordered removed. An alien may consult with a person of his or her choosing before the interview, at no expense to the Government and without delaying the interview. A ``credible fear of persecution'' means that it is more likely than not that the alien is telling the truth and the alien has a reasonable possibility of establishing eligibility for asylum. The Attorney General is required to write and promulgate regulations for these procedures consistent with the intent of this provision. There is no administrative review of a removal order entered into under this paragraph, but an alien claiming under penalty of perjury to be lawfully admitted for permanent residence shall be entitled to administrative review of such an order. An alien ordered removed under this paragraph may not make a collateral attack against the order in a prosecution under section 275(a) (illegal entry) or 276 (illegal reentry). New section 235(b)(2) provides that an alien who is not clearly and beyond a doubt entitled to enter (other than an alien subject to removal under paragraph (b)(1), or an alien crewman or stowaway) shall be detained for a hearing before a special inquiry officer (immigration judge). Section 423--Senate recedes to House amendment section 622. Subsection (a) of this section amends section 106 of the INA to add a new subsection (e). Subsection (e) precludes judicial review, subject to the provisions of paragraph (e)(2), of a decision to exclude an alien from entry under the expedited exclusion provisions of new section 235(b)(1). Paragraph (e)(2) allows for habeas corpus review limited to the issues of whether the petitioner is an alien (provided the alien makes a non-frivolous claim of U.S. nationality), whether the alien was ordered specially excluded pursuant to section 235(b)(1)(A), and whether the petitioner is a lawful permanent resident alien entitled to judicial review according to section 235(b)(1)(e)(i). A reviewing court may not order any relief other than to require that the alien receive an exclusion hearing pursuant to section 236, or a determination in accordance with section 235(c) (special procedures for aliens excludable on national security grounds) or section 273(d) (procedures for stowaways). Subsection (b) of this section amends section 235 of the INA by adding a new subsection (d), which precludes collateral attack in an action for assessment of penalties for improper entry or re-entry under section 275 or 276 of the validity of an order of exclusion, special exclusion, or deportation made under section 235, 236, or 242 of the INA. Subtitle D--Criminal Alien Procedural Improvements Section 431--Senate recedes to House amendment section 664. This section shortens the period under which a permanent resident alien can be considered excludable under certain circumstances. Section 432--House amendment section 631 recedes to Senate section 304. This section permits the Immigration and Naturalization Service to release certain confidential information on individual aliens for law enforcement purposes.- Section 433--Senate recedes to House amendment section 666. This section expands and clarifies the purpose of the Criminal Alien Tracking Center established by section 130002 of the Violent Crime Control and Law Enforcement Act of 1994 (P.L. 103-322).- Section 434--Senate recedes to House amendment section 667. This section adds several alien smuggling related crimes to the list of offenses that are RICO predicates.- Section 435--Senate recedes to House amendment section 668. This section adds wiretap authority for the investigation of various immigration offenses.- Section 436--Senate recedes to House amendment section 669. This section clarifies that for purposes of deportability, crimes of moral turpitude are crimes punishable by imprisonment for a year or more.- Section 437--Senate recedes to House amendment section 670. This section permits deportation proceedings to be conducted telephonically.- Section 438--Senate recedes to House amendment section 675. This section directs the development of a program to repatriate to the interior of a bordering country any alien who has entered the US illegally 3 or more times.- Section 439--Senate recedes to House amendment section 676. This section permits nonviolent alien offenders to be deported prior to the completion of sentences. It does not apply to offenses involving alien smuggling. The section requires the remainder of the sentence to be served if the alien reenters the United States illegally.- Section 440--Senate recedes to House amendment section 677. This section allows state and local law enforcement officials to arrest and detain illegal aliens who have previously been deported for criminal behavior until they can be taken into federal custody by the INS.- Section 441--House amendment section 601 recedes to Senate section 303(e). This section enhances the ability of the United States to deport criminal aliens.- Section 442--Senate recedes to House amendment section 665. This section limits the ability of an deportable alien to collaterally challenge an deportation order in a pending criminal case.- Section 443--Senate recedes to House amendment section 663. This section streamlines the procedures for deportation of deportable non-permanent resident aliens.- Section 444--House recedes to Senate section 302. This section permits the Attorney General to extradite persons who are not U.S. citizens, nationals, or permanent residents to countries with which the United States does not have an extradition treaty. TITLE V--NUCLEAR, BIOLOGICAL, AND CHEMICAL WEAPONS RESTRICTIONS Subtitle A--Nuclear Materials Sections 501-502--House amendment title IV recedes to Senate title VIII. These sections provide federal law enforcement officials the tools necessary to combat the threat of nuclear contamination and proliferation that may result from illegal possession of, and trafficking in, nuclear materials, including nuclear by-products and non-weapons-grade materials. Section 503--Senate recedes to House amendment section 306 with modifications. This section requires the Attorney General, together with the Secretary of Defense, to undertake a study of the number of thefts of firearms, explosives, and other terrorist type materials from military arsenals and report findings to Congress within 6 months from the date of enactment. Subtitle B--Biological Weapons Restrictions Section 511--Senate recedes to House amendment title XI with modifications. This subtitle addresses the threat of the misuse or diversion to illegal use of potentially deadly human pathogenic substances. It adds attempt, threat, and conspiracy to the prohibition on acquiring, possessing, or using biological weapons, and expands the definition of biological weapons to include certain human pathogens. This section also authorizes the Secretary of Health and Human Services to regulate the transfer of certain biological agents harmful to humans. The managers intend that in promulgating regulations and listing regulated biological agents pursuant to this provision, the Secretary ensures the continued viability of the use of such agents for legitimate purposes. Subtitle C--Chemical Weapons Restrictions Section 521--House recedes to Senate section 908 with modification. This subtitle criminalizes the use of chemical weapons within the United States, or against Americans outside of the United States. Additionally, this section provides for a study of the need for a training center to enhance law enforcement response capabilities to chemical and biological emergencies. Senate section 908 also provided additional authority for military assistance to law enforcement in chemical and biological emergencies. In light of the enactment of section 378 of the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 1996 (P.L. 104-106), the managers have omitted this provision. TITLE VI--IMPLEMENTATION OF PLASTIC EXPLOSIVES CONVENTION Sections 601-606--House amendment sections 501-505 recede to Senate sections 701-705 and 707. This title fulfills the obligations of the United States to implement the Convention on the Marking of Plastic Explosives for the Purpose of Detection, entered into at Montreal in 1991 in the wake of the bombing of Pan Am flight 103. This title requires that detectant agents be placed in all plastic explosives manufactured in, imported into, or exported from the United States, and provides criminal penalties for violations. TITLE VII--CRIMINAL LAW MODIFICATIONS TO COUNTER TERRORISM Subtitle A--Crimes and Penalties Section 701--House amendment section 202 recedes to Senate section 101. This section amends the explosives chapter of Title 18 to provide that a conspiracy to commit a crime under that chapter is punishable by the same maximum penalty as that applicable to the substantive offense that formed the object of the conspiracy. Section 702--Senate section 102 recedes to House amendment section 104 with modifications. This section creates a new federal criminal prohibition on acts of terrorism transcending national boundaries. It will be a violation of this provision to kill, kidnap, maim, or seriously injure any person in the United States, or to create substantial risk of injury to any person by damaging or destroying property in the United States. There will be federal jurisdiction over the offense if the offender uses facilities of interstate commerce, the offense interferes with interstate commerce, the victim is the United States or any employee of the United States, or the offense takes place in U.S. territorial jurisdiction, and at least part of the conduct occurred outside of the United States. Section 703--House section 104 recedes to Senate section 102(f). This section expands the categories of property in federal jurisdiction the destruction or damage of which is criminally punishable by the United States. Section 704--Senate section 103 recedes to House section 105. This section amends Section 956 of title 18, United States Code, which currently only prohibits conspiracies within the United States to injure property overseas. This amendment will criminalize conspiracies to harm people and property outside the United States, so long as at least one was present, and one act in furtherance of the conspiracy occurred, within the jurisdiction of the United States. The penalties for offenses under section 956 will range from life imprisonment for conspiracies to murder or kidnap; 35 years for conspiracy to maim; and 25 years for conspiring to damage property. Section 705--House recedes to Senate section 104. This section increases penalties for a series of federal crimes, including amending the law against maiming and disfiguring to include torture and punishing an attempt to violate this section by up to $10,000 in fines and/or 10 years imprisonment, and adding protection to armed services personnel. Section 706--Senate section 105 recedes to House amendment section 205. This section above and creates a criminal prohibition on the transfer of explosive materials, ``knowing or having reasonable cause to believe'' they will be used to commit a crime of violence or drug trafficking offense. Crimes committed under this section will be subject to the same penalties as are provided for a first conviction of section 844(h) of title 18, United States Code, which is a mandatory minimum 5 year term of imprisonment. Section 707--Senate section 106 recedes to House amendment section 111. This section amends current section 842(h) of title 18, United States Code, to include the possession of and pledging, or acceptance as security for a loan, any stolen explosive materials that have moved in, or constitute any part of interstate or foreign commerce. Currently, the law only prohibits the transport, shipment, concealment, storage, bartering, sale, and disposal of such stolen explosive material. Section 708--House amendment section 201 recedes to Senate section 107 with modifications. This section increases penalty for arson or explosives crimes against property, with mandatory minimums for these offenses. This section also extends the statute of limitations for arson offenses from seven to ten years. Section 709--Senate section 901 recedes to House amendment section 804. This section requires the Attorney General to undertake a 180 day study of publicly available literature and material instructing how to make bombs, destructive devices, or weapons of mass destruction. The study is to include a review of print, electronic, and film media, in this regard. This provision requires the Attorney General to determine the extent to which the availability of this material has been used in terrorism incidents, and the likelihood of its use for such activity in the future. This section also mandates that the Attorney General review existing federal laws having application to this material and the need or utility of any additional statutory coverage. Furthermore, the Attorney General must render a legal analysis of the protection provided this material by the First Amendment. The Attorney General is required to submit a report of findings to Congress and make that report available to the public. Subtitle B--Criminal Procedures Section 721--Senate section 621 recedes to House amendment section 106. This section clarifies United States jurisdiction for specific terrorism crimes occurring overseas. The Aircraft Piracy statute is amended to provide extraterritorial federal jurisdiction for aircraft piracy if a U.S. national was on the plane; if the perpetrator is a U.S. national; or, if the offender is found in the U.S. after committing the crime. The United States has a legitimate interest in punishing anyone who injures a U.S. national, and also retains an interest in punishing its own citizens for crimes committed against foreign nations, or foreign nationals. This section also clarifies U.S. extraterritorial jurisdiction over the offenses of aircraft destruction, murder of, and assaults or threats against of foreign officials or internationally protected persons, biological weapons offenses, and violence at international airports if the offense occurred outside the U.S., so long as the victim is an ``internationally protected person,'' (as defined by Section 1116(b)(4) of title 18); if the victim is a representative, officer, employee, or agent of the United States; if the offender is a U.S. national; or, if the offender is later found in the U.S. Section 722--Senate recedes to House amendment section 110. This section provides clarifying language to section 2280(b)(1)(A) of title 18, United States Code, which establishes federal jurisdiction over violent activities occurring on the high seas. Section 723--Senate section 627 recedes to House amendment section 203. This section will make it a crime to conspire to commit any offense under the specifically listed sections of title 18, United States Code found in this provision. Adding the conspiracy language to these criminal statutes will enable the government to prosecute and punish those offenses appropriately. Without a conspiracy element in the statutory language, the government must rely on title 18, United States Code, section 371, to prosecute conspiracies generally. Section 371 only carries a five year statutory maximum penalty, even if the underlying offense requires a much higher penalty. This section corrects this anomaly. This section provides clarifying language to Section 2280(b)(1)(A) of title 18, United States Code, which establishes federal jurisdiction over violent activities occurring on the high seas. Section 724--Senate section 628 recedes to House amendment section 109 with modification. This section amends section 844(e) of title 18, United States Code. Currently, Section 844(e) prohibits threats of violence against persons or property, whether true or false, if the threat is made through the mail or any other instrument of commerce. This new section replaces ``commerce'' with the words ``interstate or foreign commerce.'' It also expands the statute's reach to any threat that is ``in or affects interstate or foreign commerce.'' Section 725--Senate section 623 recedes to House amendment section 107 with modifications. This section criminalizes a threat to use a weapon of mass destruction, extends the prohibition to the use of such weapons by U.S. nationals overseas, and clarifies that any chemical weapon is included in the definition of weapon of mass destruction or destructive device. Section 726--House amendment section 108 recedes to Senate section 625. This section adds certain terrorism offenses to the money laundering statute. Section 727--Senate section 626 recedes to House amendment section 101 with modifications. Subsection (a) of this section amends Section 1114 of title 18, United States Code, to allow federal prosecution for the murder or attempted murder of all officers and employees of the United States government while that person was engaged in or because of that person's official duties. It also covers the murder or attempted murder of any other person assisting the United States officer, or employee, in the performance of his or her duties, or on account of the assistance provided. The penalties for this offense are the same as those provided under sections 1111, 1112, and 1113 of title 18, United States Code. Subsection (b) amends section 115(a)(2) of title 18, United States Code, by including within that statute's reach threats ``to assault, kidnap, or murder, any person who formerly served'' as a federal law enforcement officer or agent in retaliation for the exercise of his official duties. The statute currently provides this protection to currently employed federal law enforcement officers, and the family members of former law enforcement personnel. Curiously, former federal law enforcement officers are left out of the statute's coverage. This subsection of the bill corrects that omission. This section also clarifies the use of a deadly or dangerous weapon in an assault on a federal employee or officer includes the use of a weapon that fails to cause death or danger due to a defective component. Section 728--Senate recedes to House amendment title XIV. This section adds multiple killings or attempted killings to the list of aggravating factors for the imposition of the death penalty in federal criminal cases. Section 729--Senate recedes to House amendment section 310. This section clarifies that the time period in which a detention hearing must be held does not include weekends and legal holidays. Section 730--Senate recedes to House amendment sections 206 and 207. This section gives the U.S. Sentencing Commission amendment authority to expand the scope of its Chapter 3 enhancement for ``international terrorism offenses'' under the U.S. Sentencing Guidelines, to apply only to federal crimes of terrorism as defined in section 2332b(g). In amendments to the Sentencing Guidelines that become effective November 1, 1996, a new provision substantially increases jail time for offenses committed in connection with a crime of international terrorism. This section of the bill will make that new provision applicable only to those specifically listed federal crimes of terrorism, upon conviction of those crimes with the necessary motivational element to be established at the sentencing phase of the prosecution, without having to wait until November 1996 for the change to become law. Section 731--Senate recedes to House amendment section 302. Subsection (a)(3) of this section excludes from the definition of ``electronic communication'' under the wiretap statute ``information stored in a communications system used for the electronic storage and transfer of funds.'' This will allow law enforcement to obtain such bank records through the usual grand jury subpoena, or other court order procedure, without requiring a wiretap order for these purposes. Subsection (b) eliminates ``electronic communication'' from the definition of ``radio communications that are readily accessible to the general public.'' This inclusion of ``electronic communication'' negated the need to exempt from the wiretap coverage radio transmissions, i.e., scanners, CBs, and Ham radio signals. It is not intended to preclude the need for a title III wiretap order for telephone conversations occurring over cordless telephones, which operate through radio signals not readily available to the general public. ``Electronic communications'' are already specifically and separately covered by the wiretap statutes. Section 732--House amendment sections 301 and 801 recede to Senate sections 708 and 905, with modifications. This section directs the Treasury Secretary to provide to the Congress a study of the feasibility of tagging explosives and precursor chemicals, for the purpose of tracing the explosives back to the manufacturer after an explosion. The study would also evaluate the feasibility of imposing controls on the sale and distribution of certain of those chemicals. Black or smokeless powder is excluded from the study. The section requires input from non-profit fertilizer research centers in the Treasury Secretary's conduct of the study. The section also requires the Treasury Secretary to conduct a study of the licensing requirements applicable in the various states for the purchase and use of commercial high explosives. The phrase ``commercial high explosives'' is defined, by way of illustration, to include ``detonators, detonating cards, dynamite, water gel, emulsion, blasting agents, and boosters.'' This section also requires the Treasury Secretary to report the results of the study to Congress, together, if deemed necessary, with recommendations for regulation. The Secretary is authorized to promulgate regulations requiring the inclusion of tracing taggants in explosive materials if the taggants will not endanger human life or safety, will substantially assist law enforcement, and are cost-effective. The regulations promulgated pursuant to this authority shall go into effect if Congress does not act within 270 days of the publication of the regulations in the Federal Register. TITLE VIII--ASSISTANCE TO LAW ENFORCEMENT Subtitle A--Resources and Security Section 801--Senate recedes to House amendment section 807, with modification. This provision provides clear statutory authority for the Departments of Justice and Treasury, in consultation with the Department of State, to use appropriated funds for the purposes of law enforcement training activities overseas. Section 802--Senate recedes to House amendment section 704. This section expresses the sense of the Congress that any purchases made with funds authorized under this Act should be American-made. Section 803--Senate section 513 recedes to House amendment section 303, with modification. This section authorizes the Attorney General and the Treasury Secretary to ban parking or vending adjacent to any building in the District of Columbia used by law enforcement authorities subject to their jurisdiction. The managers intend and expect that in carrying out this section, the Attorney General and the Secretary will consult and coordinate with the Government of the District of Columbia. Section 804--House amendment section 303 recedes to Senate section 513. This section requires the providers of wire or electronic communications services to take necessary steps to preserve evidence relevant in certain investigations. Section 805--House recedes to Senate section 528. This section requires the United States Sentencing Commission to report on the deterrent effect of current penalties for violations of laws prohibiting unauthorized access to, or damage to, a federal interest computer. Also requires the Commission to ensure that persons sentenced under these laws are incarcerated for at least six months. Section 806--Senate recedes to House amendment title XII, with modification. This section establishes a commission, appointed jointly by the leadership of the Congress and the Chief Justice of the United States Supreme Court, to evaluate the coordination, effectiveness, and oversight of federal law enforcement. The Commission is required to report to Congress. Section 807--Senate recedes to House amendment title X. This section requires an audit of counterfeit U.S. currency in international markets, and provides for consideration by the Secretary of State of requests by the Department of the Treasury for the posting of agents of the United States Secret Service at U.S. embassies. Section 808--Senate recedes to House amendment section 805. This section establishes findings by Congress that acts of violence against all levels of government employees are on the increase, that such acts create a danger to our constitutional form of government, and that additional information is needed to fully understand the true nature and source of the dangers faced by public servants. This section then directs the Attorney General to acquire and compile data for each calendar year, beginning in 1990, reflecting crimes and incidents of threats of violence against federal, state, and local government employees on account of the performance of their public duties. The Attorney General is required to publish an annual summary of the collected data. Section 809--Senate recedes to House amendment section 112. This section requires the National Institute of Justice (``NIJ'') to conduct a study that may result in a standard protocol for identifying handgun bullets that are capable of penetrating body armor commonly worn by police when shot from a handgun. The NIJ must establish standard criteria for the type of body armor against which the bullets were tested. The NIJ must report its findings to Congress with recommendations regarding its findings. The current practice is to outlaw bullets by brand-name without regard to their specific component qualities. To continue this practice could result in hunting-type bullets being outlawed indiscriminately, without regard to the nature and purpose of the ammunition, and without regard to the proximity of the target, or the type of weapon used to shoot the bullet. It is important to establish standard criteria for determining which bullets, when shot from a handgun, have the ability to penetrate body armor. Section 810--House recedes to Senate section 511, with modifications. This section requires a study of current laws and guidelines governing the use of electronic surveillance devices and PEN registers, and the effect of evolving technology on criminal activity. Subtitle B--Funding Authorizations for Law Enforcement This subtitle provides $1.0 billion in authorization for appropriations to enhance law enforcement ability to deter, investigate, and prosecute terrorism. Of this $1.0 billion authorization, $468 million is authorized for the Federal Bureau of Investigation, $172 million is authorized for the Drug Enforcement Administration, and $100 million is authorized for State and Local law enforcement. The remaining $260 million is divided among other enforcement and emergency response organizations. The conference report authorization levels represent a $940 million increase from the House amendment's authorization. This increases authorized appropriations for Federal law enforcement, the Federal Judiciary and State and local law enforcement. However, the conference authorization levels also represent a $1.116 billion decrease from the Senate bill authorizations. The reductions come from removing Fiscal Year 1996 authorizations and reducing the remaining authorizations by half. These reductions were applied equally among all affected Senate authorizations, with minor exceptions. The managers are committed to achieving a balanced budget, and intend that all authorizations be considered as part of the levels within the Balanced Budget Act of 1995, if enacted, or any subsequent balanced budget act. Section 811--House recedes to Senate section 521 with modifications. Total authorization is $468 million. Funds may be used for, among other purposes, to create a Federal Bureau of Investigation counterterrorism and counterintelligence fund; expand and improve the instructional, operational support, and construction of the Federal Bureau of Investigation academy; and construct an FBI laboratory, provide laboratory examination support. Section 812--House recedes to Senate sections 522 and section 912 with modifications. Total authorization is $31 million.
