I want to thank my colleague from Vermont, and my colleague from New Mexico and others who have spoken on behalf of this amendment. I also share his concern. If there are going to be that number of employees in HCFA, it should be temporary. I very much appreciate that.

I also mention that my friend and colleague from Massachusetts said that Oklahoma had recently hired five employees to comply with this provision. I think that is fine. I think that is great, because I happen to believe in State control of insurance instead of the Federal Government. States are trying to comply. They are in the process of complying. The State of Oklahoma can probably hire five employees for less than $93,000 each, as we would be doing under this piece of legislation.

So, again, for the information of our colleagues, my amendment would strike out the provision that would add $16 million for HCFA for the hiring of an additional 65 employees. I do not think that is necessary. They have over 4,000 employees today. They certainly can borrow, they can use, they can have temporary employees. They do not need 65 permanent employees.

We also do not need to be taking money away from the Medicare's Hospital Insurance Trust Fund, a permanent entitlement provision, to pay for this measure.

Again, the administration was well aware. The Health and Human Services Administration has 58,000 employees. Surely they can shuffle some employees around, if necessary, to meet any emergency that might arise.

Ted Stevens

Mr. President, the situation is now that we have nine amendments in order and probably at least three more that I know of that are coming. So we have 12 amendments to deal with before we can get down to the managers' package on this bill. At the request of the Senator from Massachusetts, I am going to ask that this amendment be set aside and that it be regular order on the list that we have, to come before the Senate again after action on the Bond amendments.

Mr. President, that would mean that at this time, as I understand it, if I ask for the regular order, the amendment before the Senate will be the amendment by Senator Faircloth. Is that correct?

Mr. President, I once again ask Senators to come forward and tell us if they are going to offer amendments to the supplemental bill. As I have indicated, we now have at least 12 that are on our screen and we would like to start working out some sort of time agreement to dispose of this bill.

Ted Stevens

I might state to the Senate that as soon as the Senator from North Carolina has presented his amendment, I intend to make a point of order against it. That will take place as soon as he has finished his statement.

Ted Stevens

For information of all Senators, it is my understanding the Senator from North Carolina will take but a short time, and following his statement, as I indicated, I will make a point of order against his amendment. He has indicated to me he will ask to waive that point of order, so that would mean there would be a vote before the Senate at approximately 10 minutes of 1.

Mr. President, I will go into this amendment in more depth after the Senator from North Carolina has proceeded with the core of discussing his basic amendment. Essentially what this amendment does -- the underlying amendment takes the money from the stabilization fund and puts it toward school construction. Instead of putting it all towards school construction, this amendment puts $1 billion of it towards special education. We as a Government have an obligation to special needs children. I have discussed that on the floor many times. We have made a 40 percent commitment as a Government that, regrettably, is an unfunded mandate that has not been fulfilled. We are only paying 9 percent of the local cost. This would help pick up the 40 percent, move towards that 40 percent, and that is the purpose of this amendment.

Mr. President, I am delighted to accept the amendment from Senator Gregg. It is a good amendment. The States have a burden complying with this law, and I have no problem with using $1 billion of the $5 billion we are proposing so the States can meet the law.

Again, these are loans to the States which, in my opinion, is much better than loans to Korea, Mexico, Indonesia, and others, the likes of which we have been giving it to.

Mr. President, what this amendment is about is very simple. As I have said many times, if we can provide $18 billion for the IMF without any budget impact at all, I think we can certainly waive the Budget Act, if it comes to that, to provide $5 billion for school construction. I don't think it violates the Budget Act.

The ESF at Treasury loans out money. This is what it does. This is what the new fund will do. The only difference is that this money, I propose, will be loaned to the school systems throughout this Nation to rebuild the schools rather than to overseas ventures.

The reason I offer this amendment is this appropriations bill went from a $2 billion emergency bill yesterday to an $18 billion international bailout today. I am concerned about the priorities of some of my colleagues in this body. We are spending money in a supplemental for operations in Bosnia -- a supplemental. Is there anyone who seriously thought that the President was going to remove the troops in June of 1998, as we committed he would? Why did we ever think he would keep that promise? We have no plans to leave Bosnia. There is no plan to leave Bosnia. We could well be there on into infinity. As long as we put up money, we will be there.

Second, we are spending money for operations in the Persian Gulf, $1 billion already, to back up a U.N. resolution. Yet, the administration says that we haven't paid our dues to the United Nations. Well, if they will pay us for the Persian Gulf operation, we will give them a check for the United Nations.

Third, we are providing $18 billion for the IMF -- $18 billion. I am as opposed as a man can be to sending our money -- and they were identified by the majority leader in this body as Socialists -- I am opposed to sending our money to silk-suited dilettantes to spread around the world like it was holy water and theirs to do with as they see fit. This is not what our money should go for. These are not my priorities. These are the priorities of the Clinton administration, to send the money to the IMF while they flit around the country on a diet of champagne and caviar at the expense of the American taxpayer.

I have priorities that I think need pushing. I think it is far more important to rebuild the schoolhouses and school buildings in North Carolina than it is to spend the money around the world for international bailouts. There is no end to them.

Just to take 1 minute on this international bailout, if the Secretary of the Treasury Rubin and the administration will come forth and say this is the last $18 billion, then I might think more kindly of it, but they wouldn't begin to tell you that, because they know they are going to be back before the year is out for $28 billion more. They have already planned it.

I don't work for President Clinton, thank goodness. I work for the people of North Carolina. Very simply, if we can afford to make loans to Mexico, Korea, and Indonesia from the Exchange Stabilization Fund, then we can afford to make loans to the States for school construction and modernization.

According to the Congressional Research Service, this Exchange Stabilization Fund had over $30 billion at the end of 1997. This has become a giant slush fund in the Treasury Department. They do their dead-level best to keep the fund a secret, because it is under the exclusive control of the Secretary of the Treasury, and, as I say, they flit around and pass it out. I think it is time for the Congress to stand up and say where it goes and when it goes and spend the money for domestic purposes, whether the Treasury likes it or not.

Ted Stevens

Mr. President, there are a few times when a chairman faces dilemmas of this magnitude. I support the concept of more funds going to schools and to the Disabilities Act. If I make a point of order, and the Senator makes a motion to waive the point of order, I think that will carry. I think the Senate will vote to waive. I know that my friends on the Democratic side of the aisle would vote to make that money available and, obviously, I think Members on this side of the aisle think this is a way to somehow or another deal with the budget in a different way using the stabilization fund.

The net result of the Senator's amendment, if the budget is waived, is that there will be $5 billion spent from the stabilization fund and that, in effect, would require our committee to go back and take $5 billion out of the nondefense side of the budget and rescind it. If we did not do that, our whole bill is subject to a point of order and the disaster money and the defense money that we so vitally need will not be available.

I can tell the Senate, it would take me a week to find $5 billion in nondefense money that we could rescind for 1998. The Senator is aware, I am sure, that his amendment makes the money available in 1998. It says that in 1998 the administration is directed to spend $5 billion from the stabilization fund.

At the time of the Mexico crisis, I did a study of the stabilization fund. It was created at the time the United States went off the gold standard, and someone in the Treasury decided that since we are off the gold standard, we ought to figure out what the gold in Fort Knox is worth, and they did. As the price of gold went up, the stabilization fund went up. It does not represent any capital in the sense of income that is saved; it represents the value of the gold in Fort Knox.

Literally, in order to pay for the expenditures that the Senator's amendment would authorize, otherwise pressed, the Treasury would have to sell the gold in Fort Knox. Unfortunately, the value of that has gone down, and the stabilization fund may really not be worth as much as people think it is.

In any event, this amendment has some strange quirks to it, as far as this bill is concerned. I do not want the Senate to waive the Budget Act, because if we waive the Budget Act, as I said, the whole bill is subject to a point of order. If we adopt the amendment, the bill is subject to a point of order similarly, in my opinion, unless we go back and take out the $5 billion that it would spend in 1998.

I may be misinformed on that regard, but I know the effect of spending that kind of money would require us to go back and take the money out of existing accounts on the nondefense side.

I think the Senate ought to have some time to think about this. I think the Senator ought to think about it, because it is not going to achieve the result the Senator seeks. It is not going to embarrass anybody on the Democratic side. They are going to vote for his amendment. It is not going to embarrass anyone on our side of the aisle; they are going to vote for the amendment. And it is not going to embarrass the administration; they want to spend that kind of money, $5 billion more money.

As my grandmother said, it is money made of whole cloth. It is not there. It wasn't in the budget to start with and somehow that money will have to be accounted for in the budget process this year.

I understand what the Senator from North Carolina is trying to do, but it is not going to achieve the result that he seeks. I can tell him I am informed the Democratic Members will vote for his amendment, as Democratic Members will vote to waive, as he seeks to make. The net result is the Senator will increase spending by $5 billion, unless we go back, as I said, and take $5 billion out of the nondefense side of the budget that is left to be taken out in the last 6 months of this year.

I can tell the Senator, in order to do that, you have to take out about $15 billion, because we are talking about outlays, and it is just not possible this time of the year to get that kind of money without doing severe damage to a lot of programs, whether they be agriculture programs -- they would be on the nondefense side. We cannot touch defense on this amendment.

It is a nightmare, really. But it comes about because I understand Senators do not want to vote against the Senator's amendment, as he might have anticipated. They will not vote against this amendment.

Mr. President, I have sought recognition to comment briefly upon the amendment which was argued a little earlier in the day. I had been on the floor when the amendment by the distinguished Senator from Oklahoma, Mr. Nickles, was offered. There were many Senators here, and I had other commitments. I am going to support Senator Nickles' amendment, although I do so with some substantial concern for the funding at HCFA.

When the additional personnel had been requested to move forward on the provisions of the Kassebaum-Kennedy bill, it seems to me that Senator Nickles had made a valid argument that most of the States, almost all of the States, have applied and it is not in an emergency classification. I am further concerned that this funding has been requested by the Department of Health and Human Services on an emergency appropriations bill which does not quite fit the mold. Where we have these emergency appropriations bills, it is my view that we really ought to limit them to matters that are truly emergencies and not seek to pile on and use this as an occasion for appropriations which really can wait their turn.

I speak on this amendment in my capacity as chairman of the appropriations subcommittee which has jurisdiction over the Department of Health and Human Services. We conduct, through my subcommittee, considerable oversight on HCFA. I am very much concerned that they should be adequately funded to carry out their duties.

Last week, we had a hearing with HCFA on the issue of the changes in compensation for a variety of physician categories, and at the same time we also had a hearing for the appropriation for fiscal year 1999 where the Secretary of Health and Human Services testified and the Administrator of HCFA, Min DeParle, testified as well, and did not raise the issue of this appropriation in this emergency appropriations bill. So I do think that had it been a matter of great urgency, in my capacity as chairman of that subcommittee, it would have been called to my attention, it would have been impressed on me, which was not the case.

In reviewing this matter with the distinguished chairman of the Appropriations Committee, I do concur with his analysis that it is not an appropriate matter for an emergency appropriation. And if it is the enforcement of Kassebaum-Kennedy, there are personnel available to do that, and that is not at a critical stage.

I had heard that the appropriation was sought to carry forward the change in the schedule on physicians' compensation, but apparently that does not seem to be the case. So, as I say, I am ready, willing, and able to take a look at what HCFA needs. We are now in the process of considering the appropriations bill for next year, and I think an orderly process makes it preferable that we consider this appropriation request at that time.

Mr. President, I am glad to have a brief opportunity to further explain why I have offered this amendment concerning Bosnia. I believe there will be an opportunity to vote on this, perhaps in the context of a motion to table, very soon, perhaps as soon as 1:30, so I would like to offer just a couple of remarks about why I have offered this amendment.

What the amendment would do is remove the emergency designation from the Bosnia money that is in this bill. There are various pots of money in this bill, but I am only talking here about the Bosnia money concerning the operation in the Bosnia theater. If the Senate determines that these funds are not an emergency -- if I am able to prevail in this amendment -- then they would be treated like any other kind of spending, any other kind of regular spending. In other words, under this scenario, if the administration wants to have these expenditures, they would have to follow the regular procedure. That is, the administration and the Members of Congress would have to find an offset from within the budget caps for these defense expenditures. Otherwise, these defense expenditures would be sequestered.

The reason I am offering this is that the emergency designation as drafted in this bill for the Bosnia funding is really just a way around spending caps. In my mind, it is a ruse. It is just a budget fiction. It means we are ignoring our own budget caps.

My personal preference would be that we had not put ourselves in the first place in the position of having our troops in Bosnia this way. I opposed the deploying of our troops to Bosnia and still do. Since we have and we are in the situation that we are in, I think at a bare minimum with regard to the continuing of the Bosnia mission, we have to exercise some budget discipline here. Why wouldn't the budget rules apply to this Bosnia situation?

What my amendment does is help us exercise that discipline. It strikes the emergency designation for the Bosnia money, again for the simple reason that the Bosnia operation is certainly a very important operation but it is not an emergency. It is very hard to argue that the ongoing, ever-lengthening mission in Bosnia is an emergency. Yet we are faced with this emergency designation as a way to bootstrap this funding into this bill which is supposed to be about emergencies.

This amendment does not set an end date by which our troops should leave Bosnia, although I do want to see us do that. I hope it would be no later than June 30 of this year. This amendment does not call for our troop withdrawal at this time, although I very much would like to see that happen. All it does is simply force the administration to be straightforward and force the supporters of the administration's policies to be straightforward and to face the reality of the fiscal demands of this mission.

What has happened here is an operation that we were told would only cost $2 billion has already cost the American people $8 billion, and now we are asked to put another half a billion into this, and somehow people are arguing that it is on the basis of an emergency situation. That is simply not credible. This speaks both to the problem of the Bosnia mission and the problem we have with budgeting in general in this country. People are appalled that emergency bills are used as windows of opportunity to achieve other agendas. I am the first to admit that there have been more gross violations than this one, but this is a lot of money, and the American people are beginning to wake up to the fact that we have spent 8 billion American dollars in the Bosnia situation.

At a bare minimum, what we try to do in this amendment is say, "Let's find out how we are going to pay for this. Let's have the budget rules apply. Let's have the administration and the Congress say exactly how they will pay for this," instead of, in effect, deficit spending that is being used to fund the Bosnia mission.

Mr. President, I know the Feingold amendment is pending, but I want to speak to the issue of the Faircloth amendment which was offered earlier and which I understand will be resumed and possibly voted on later this afternoon, specifically to my second-degree amendment to the Faircloth amendment.

The second degree says that of the $5 billion that would be taken from the stabilization fund -- which is, I believe, essentially a fund that allows the Treasury the flexibility to do things like Mexico bailout and the bailouts in Asia, of the $5 billion that Senator Faircloth has suggested we take back into the Treasury to take control over, which I think is a good idea -- that $1 billion of that would go towards special education.

As many people who have listened to me speak occasionally on this floor know -- or some people know because I suspect many don't listen or would rather ignore it -- the special education funding accounts of this Government are totally skewed in that when the bill for special education was first passed back in 1976, the Federal Government said it would pick up 40 percent of the costs of the special needs child in the local school districts. Over the years, the Federal Government has failed miserably in fulfilling its obligations, and instead of paying for 40 percent of costs, as of 2 years ago it was down to paying for only 6 percent of the costs of the special needs child.

As a result of efforts by a number of Senators, including myself and Senator Lott and the Presiding Officer, we have been able in the last 2 years on the Republican side to significantly increase funding for special education, with no support, by the way, from the administration, to the point where we now have it up to approximately 9.5 percent of the costs of the special education being borne by the Federal Government -- still a far cry from the 40 percent.

The administration has put forward a budget this year which calls for virtually no increase in special education funds, which is an outrageous position in light of the fact that they are also suggesting we create new programs in the elementary and secondary school level that would cost approximately $12 billion. But they can find no room in their budget for special education for kids who need special education, which is truly inappropriate.

What has happened is the special needs child finds himself put in a situation where in local school district after local school district that child is really in an untenable and unfair position relative to other children in the school system. The parents of that child are forced to be put in confrontation with the children and parents who do not have special needs, in different school systems, in a competition for resources, in a competition for resources which should be there if the Federal Government paid its fair share but which are not because the Federal Government does not pay its fair share.

This administration, in suggesting $12 billion in new programs outside of special needs funding, is essentially saying we are not only not going to fund the needs of the special education to the level required by the law; we are going to take money which would relieve the pressure on the special education child, which would relieve the pressure on the local school district, we will take that money and create new programs, new mandated programs, new categorical programs where the local school districts will have to do what we say they have to do in Washington in the area of buildings and in the area of class size at the expense of the special needs child, one more time.

If this money was put where it was supposed to be under the law, the 40 percent as the Federal Government is supposed to pay for it, if the President's budget funded special education at the level that it was required to be funded under the law, then those new programs, instead of being started in buildings, instead of being started in class size, those dollars would flow to the special education accounts and the local school districts could make the decisions because they would then have their resources freed up as to what type of buildings they wanted, what type of courts they wanted, and the decision process would be controlled where it should be -- at the local level, not here in Washington. But that is not the policy of this administration. The policy of this administration is to essentially try to take control over local education, pull it into Washington through these categorical grant programs, and, at the same time, underfund the special needs program, putting the local school districts in the lose-lose position of having to pay the Federal share of special needs and they also have to do what the Federal Government wants it to do in other areas in order to get any Federal money at all -- totally inappropriate and extremely prejudicial, especially to the local school districts and the special needs.

That is a long explanation, but it is an attempt to lay the groundwork for the purpose of my amendment. If we are going to bring more money back into the Federal Treasury under the control of Congress, which we should -- and I think Senator Faircloth's amendment is appropriate in this area -- we should not have this, for want of a better word, "slush fund" sitting there for the purposes and under the control of the Congress to spend, the $5 billion. If we are going to bring that $5 billion back into the control of the Congress, not only should we bring it back here, but we should spend it on obligations that we know we have, which are on the books and, specifically, special education.

So the vote on this Faircloth amendment really becomes fairly simple. To put it in its starkest terms, you can vote for a slush fund that may be used to bail out the Soeharto family, which is worth billions and billions of dollars in Indonesia, or you can vote for the special-ed child back in your hometown and your home State who needs the support of this Government and whom this Government said they were going to support. That is the vote. The choice is simple. I certainly hope that this Senate will come down on the side of special education.

Ted Stevens

Mr. President, the Feingold amendment strikes the emergency designation for the Bosnian funds from the bill. This supplemental request is mandated by section 8132 of the appropriations bill for 1999. If the President certifies that the mission to Bosnia must continue, under the law this then continues. Bosnia costs are emergency, as Congress specifically funded only through June 30, 1998.

The problem we face now is the cost of the continued deployment has already been paid. The administration has sought to seek these funds to avoid damage to the readiness and the quality of life that the military faces, which is not currently deployed, but they may face missions, as I have told the Senate before, to Bosnia or Iraq within the remainder of this year.

The emergency designation allows those moneys necessary for this deployment to come out of the emergency fund rather than having to come out of reprogrammed accounts for the moneys we have already appropriated for quality of life and for readiness for the remainder of the force that is not deployed.

Under the circumstances, I agree with Senator Feingold's position. We, however, thought we had a commitment that the troops would be out on July 1. I think the Senate realizes that. The President made the finding that the law required it if he was going to continue the deployment, and that is not only for 1998 but for 1999.

We will address, as we have already indicated with the comments of the Senator from Texas, Mrs. Hutchison, today, the continued deployment in Bosnia at length during the consideration of both the authorization bill and the defense appropriations bill this year as we look to 1999. But for the purpose now of dealing with the continued deployment for the remainder of this year, I implore the Senator not to require, by striking the emergency designation, that these funds must be taken from other portions of the Department of Defense that are already accounted for in the appropriations we have made for those functions. And we would again just be doing that.

I feel like a white rat in one of those circular wheels. We just continue to go around and around. And we don't get anywhere if we appropriate money and we have to go back and take that money and put it into another purpose, particularly this late in the year.

It would also have a problem because some of the moneys that have already been committed would not actually be spent until 1999. We went into that yesterday in connection with another matter.

But, clearly, if we do not have the emergency designation, those moneys that are actually spent in 1999 will be counted against our allocation that we are already working on for 1999 in terms of the new bill for fiscal year 1999. And, unfortunately, the Congressional Budget Office has already told us we are $3.7 billion short to meet the level of funding that is indicated in the budget.

There is this battle between the Congressional Budget Office and the Office of Management and Budget. This will add to that deficit. When we try to correct that deficit, it would mean the moneys that are basically emergency moneys to deal with the continued deployment through September 30 of this year must actually be counted against 1999. I have to tell you, Mr. President, that makes that problem of the deficit and defense allocation for outlays for 1999 even that much worse.

I will tell the Senate that it is not possible to get those soldiers out of there at one time. There has to be, if we are going to have a staggered withdrawal, a staged withdrawal, a downsizing to the point where we can do it legitimately, and without risk to anyone.

I am about ready to make the motion to table. Before I do so, does the Senator wish to make one last statement concerning his amendment?

Mr. President, I thank the chairman for his courtesy, and I want to speak for just a minute in response to the chairman's remarks. I appreciate the remarks. I understand the difficult situation he is in.

But what I can't understand is why we let the administration and others who have represented to us certain limits with regard to the Bosnia operation put us in this position. The leadership of this body said this would cost $2 billion, and that is it, and we would be there for 1 year, and that is it. Now it has cost $8 billion and another $\1/ 2\ billion. Yet they don't provide us with a way to prepay for it. They don't tell us how to offset it. But what they are, in effect, asking us to do -- forcing us to do -- is to take this out of Social Security. It is deficit spending. It is deficit spending. Sometimes we have to do it, as the chairman has pointed out, in true emergencies. Some of what is in this bill I can't deny involves true emergencies, such as tornadoes and floods. But why should we let this administration put us in the position of having to deficit spend to add onto what is already a quadruple of the $2 billion we were promised this would cost?

So, Mr. President, all we are trying to do is have a little truth in budgeting here, remove the emergency designation, and have an honest accounting of how this should be paid for.

But I sure want to recognize the chairman's challenge in this area. It is very difficult. In effect, he and others are being forced to have to do this in a situation that isn't appropriate. The administration and others should have identified an offset.

Mr. President, I rise in strong support of the amendment offered by my friend and colleague, Senator Kit Bond. I am pleased to cosponsor this measure. This amendment will help address the devastating effects of the 100-year ice storm which tore through the north country of New York and the Northeast this past January.

The amendment will provide $260 million in community development block grant (CDBG) funds to State Governments for recovery efforts in federally-declared disaster areas. The CDBG program has the advantage of providing states and localities with a great degree of flexibility in meeting local needs and can be used in the emergency context to fund home repairs, debris removal and the restoration of electrical power to low and moderate income families.

Mr. President, the six counties in New York which were declared federal disaster areas -- Franklin, St. Lawrence, Essex, Clinton, Lewis, and Jefferson -- comprise a 7,000 square mile area. This represents an area roughly the size of Massachusetts. Tens of thousands of homes in this area suffered structural damage from ice, severe winds and subsequent flooding. Families were displaced and electricity to over 400,000 people was cut off. The entire high voltage transmission system for this area was wiped out and replaced in a three-week period.

This amendment will provide much-needed relief for New York homeowners and ratepayers. This assistance is vital to repair storm- related damage to the homes of the families of the north country. Unfortunately, assistance from the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) and Small Business Administration (SBA) disaster loan programs have not met all the needs of affected families. These funds will help homeowners repair damaged roofs, plumbing and heating systems.

In addition, this amendment will also help to address the massive costs associated with the near-total devastation of the region's electric power system. During the storm, nearly 10,000 utility poles were destroyed -- many literally snapped in half. Repair crews worked 16- to 18-hour shifts -- often in sub-zero conditions in the dead of night -- removing downed utility lines, fallen trees and debris, removing destroyed poles from the frozen ground and drilling holes for new poles.

Line crews and tree-cutting crews were brought in from other regions of New York State, as well as from Pennsylvania, Vermont, Connecticut, Michigan, Virginia, and North Carolina. These crews replaced hundreds of miles of electrical cable, 150 two-pole 90-foot-tall transmission towers and over 2,000 transformers. The equipment and materials for this undertaking had to be brought in from as far away as Oregon, Florida, Georgia, and Nevada.

Mr. President, without this funding, the costs incurred by this massive restoration effort could be passed on to the utility ratepayers of New York. New York currently has one of the highest electric rates in the nation -- some 40% higher than the national average. The hard- working families of the north country who have bravely endured the ice storm should not have to suffer additional increases in their utility bills.

Mr. President, I commend Senator Bond for including language in this amendment which will ensure that these funds are allocated in a fair and cost-effective manner. Specifically, the amendment provides that funds should be dedicated to states based on unmet needs which have been identified by the Director of the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA). By providing a role to the Director of FEMA, the amendment will help ensure a fair distribution of funds.

FEMA has made an excellent start in identifying unmet needs which have not been addressed by other federal disaster assistance programs. The February 1998 FEMA Report, "A Blueprint for Action," clearly identifies the principal unmet needs of New York and the Northeast region resulting from the ice storm. Under the terms of the amendment, the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) will take into account the costs associated with these unmet needs in making allocation decisions. The amendment effectively addresses concerns which have been raised regarding HUD's past distribution of emergency CDBG funds. Under some previous allocations, large states have fared poorly. Specifically, HUD has at times used a ratio which unfairly penalized states with larger gross products. This amendment effectively addresses those concerns and makes clear that funding allocations are to be based on needs which cannot be addressed through other federal disaster programs.

In addition, I support Senator Bond's inclusion of a requirement for a State match of public or private funds. This provision is consistent with other federal disaster programs and will help leverage additional resources for disaster recovery efforts. This matching requirement will also give States an added incentive to ensure that funds are used in a cost-effective and efficient manner.

Once again, let me thank Senator Bond for offering this important measure and providing assistance to the people of New York. In particular, I thank Senator Snowe for her efforts on behalf of the Northeast States affected by the ice storm. Also, my friend Senator Moynihan deserves praise for his efforts on behalf of the people of the north country. He has helped ensure that their voice has been heard here today. Finally, I would like to thank Senator Ted Stevens, the chairman of the Appropriations Committee, for his diligence in bringing this amendment up for consideration by the Senate. I urge its immediate adoption.

Unfortunately, while both the Small Business Administration and the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) have contributed significant resources to homeowners in the region -- the funds provided have been insufficient to address the full impact of the storm. For instance, while FEMA's Individual and Family Grant Program has helped hundreds of families, thousands of other families -- including low-income and elderly persons -- have been unable to access the program because of FEMA's daunting application procedures.

I thank Senator D'Amato, the chairman of the Ranking Committee which has jurisdiction over the Community Development Block Grant Program for his kind words. It was a pleasure to work with you to ensure that the Supplemental Emergency Appropriations Act contains sufficient funding to help impacted areas recover from natural disasters. Specifically, I commend the Senator from New York for his diligence in ensuring that the full scope of the impact of the ice storm in the Northeast was made known to the Appropriations Committee. Without his efforts, and those of his colleagues, many of the needs of the people of New York and the entire Northeast region might not have been fully addressed. Given the circumstances which have been brought to our attention, the committee believes the additional $60 million is fully justified and will help the residents of the area recover from the ravages of the ice storm.

Mr. President, 1998 will long be remembered in the State of Maine as the year of the Ice Storm. In early January the state was coated with more than three inches of ice -- the result of a once in a lifetime storm that left more than 80 percent of the State without power.

It was an extraordinary event -- both for the way the people of Maine pulled together and for the damage it did to the state's utility infrastructure. The reaction of the people of Maine was proof positive that "Maine: the way life should be" is not just a slogan, it is a fact. I was overwhelmed by the resiliency and compassion I witnessed across the state last month, and Senator Collins and I shared our thoughts and our praise for the people of Maine on the Senate floor.

We have worked, along with our colleagues from Vermont, Senators Jeffords and Leahy and New York, Senators D'Amato and Moynihan, to obtain additional federal assistance, through the Community Development Block Grants Program (CDBG) to help cover damage done in the state that FEMA did not cover. Specifically, the damage done to the state's utility infrastructure.

I appreciate the assistance provided to us by the Chairman, the Senator from Alaska, Mr. Stevens, Chairman Bond of the VA/HUD Subcommittee, and the Ranking Member of that Subcommittee, Senator Mikulski in crafting this amendment. The amendment, which I am cosponsoring, will provide $260 million for the CDBG program. This money will allow states, like mine, that have been declared disaster areas, to obtain CDBG money to address the unmet disaster needs -- or fill the gaps -- that FEMA has identified.

In Maine, the biggest cost of the storm was the damage done to the utility infrastructure. Vice President Gore, during a visit to Maine on January 15, summed up the situation succinctly when he said "We've never seen anything like this. This is like a neutron bomb aimed at the power system".

The combination of heavy rains and freezing temperatures left the State coated with more than three inches of ice. The weight of this ice downed wires, toppled transformers and snapped utility poles in two. At the peak of the storm 65 percent of the customers -- more than 275,000 households served by Central Maine Power (CMP) Company were without electricity. Bangor Hydro Electric Company had 75 percent of its customers -- more than 78,000 without power.

It took CMP, which supplies power to 77 percent of the State, 23 days to restore power to all its customers. They did it with 1,048 crews working around the clock and running up 177,000 hours of overtime. They had to secure downed wires, replace more than 1 million feet of cable, 3,050 utility poles and 2,000 reformers. They have estimated the cost of this heroic effort to be $74 million.

Bangor Hydro nearly tripled the number of crews it normally used -- going from 40 to 117 and put in an estimated 54,402 hours on storm damage. Their crews worked more overtime in January then they did in all of 1997. And once they completed their restoration efforts, they loaned crews to CMP. They estimate they spent more than $7 million to bring all their customers back on line.

My colleagues will tell similar stories, Mr. President. The rain and freezing temperatures proved to be a fatal combination for the utility infrastructure. As Maine Governor Angus King said "If you designed a storm to take out the electrical system, this was it".

I cannot offer enough praise to the men and women of Maine's utilities and their brethren who came in from all over the East Coast -- including several crews from my good friend, Senator Mikulski's home state of Maryland. These crews faced freezing temperatures and hazardous situations as they worked to kill live wires and free remaining wires from the downed trees and poles. They worked round the clock until the light was back on in every house in the State. As we say in Maine, they are the "Finest Kind".

And the federal response was just as important and just as swift. The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), the Small Business Administration, the Department of Defense -- all answered Maine's call for immediate help. We truly appreciate it, Mr. President, and like many of my colleagues whose states have suffered from mother nature's rage, I have seen first hand how vital the federal response is in the early days of a disaster.

Once we were assured of federal assistance and the agencies were in the State and working, the Maine Congressional Delegation asked the Governor what else was needed. He told us they needed federal assistance to cover the extraordinary costs associated with the destruction of our utility infrastructure. And he asked the President to include supplemental funding for this purpose, as did the Governors of Vermont and New York.

The Stafford Act which provides FEMA's guidelines for assistance covers public power. It will reimburse 75 percent of the costs related with a disaster. But because Maine and much of the northeast have investor-owned utilities as opposed to government-owned utilities, we are ineligible to receive assistance from FEMA for this purpose, despite the fact that it is the greatest cost of the storm. When we learned this, we went looking for other sources of federal assistance, but we could find nothing that could address the magnitude of the costs of this storm.

Without assistance, the utilities in the states of Maine, Vermont and New York will have to pass these costs onto the ratepayers, who already pay some of the highest rates in the country for electricity. Maine's residential rate is 48 percent higher than the country's average and New York pays the highest rates in the country. Vermont pays 28 percent more than the national average.

Mr. President, I know that some of my colleagues are wondering the States have asked for assistance for private companies. But a utility is a unique animal. Whether it is a public or private utility is immaterial to the role it plays. It provides a public service and it has an obligation to provide that service 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year -- rain or shine, tornado or flood, ice storm or earthquake.

The fact is that these utilities didn't shut down like many private businesses did during the ice storm -- because they couldn't. They had to protect the public from the danger of live, downed wires and from freezing to death in their own homes. It was a matter of public safety -- not a business decision. They had to right downed poles, replace crumpled transformers and get the power back on.

They did not have the luxury of sitting down and saying "this is going to cost us a bundle, our stockholders won't like it, we should take a pass". They couldn't. They provide a public service, and they had an obligation to the people they served to restore power as quickly as possible.

The amendment we have worked out with the Committee will provide $260 million in supplemental funding to HUD for the CDBG program. This money, which will go to the states, can be used for a number of activities, including reimbursement of costs to privately owned utilities. HUD regulation 24 CFR Section 570.201(l) states:

In fact, this amendment, Mr. President, asks for the same assistance this Congress gave to Minnesota, North Dakota and South Dakota last year in an effort to help these states get back on their feet after they had been ravaged by the worst flooding in 100 years. In the FY97 supplemental, $500 million was appropriated for CDBG to help with disaster assistance. The Northern States Power Company applied to the State of Minnesota for funding and was turned down. Minnesota could have provided them with the funding, but chose not to. The same utility has applied to Grand Forks, North Dakota -- a CDBG entitlement city -- for funding and is still waiting for a response. Again, Grand Forks can give the money to the utility or turn them down -- it is their decision.

Another concern that has been raised is the issue of accountability. How do we know that this money will cover only those costs related to the ice storm and not be used by the utilities to upgrade their infrastructure? Again, the answer lies in the fact that utilities are unique. They are regulated at the State level, and they must justify their costs to the regulators who allow them to recover only those incremental costs directly attributable to the ice storm. In addition, the bulk of the costs associated with this storm are related to the cost of labor -- not to the cost of new equipment.

In Maine, the Public Utility Commission issued an accounting order on January 15 that required the utilities to segregate their storm related costs. The PUC just started an audit of these accounts. If our amendment is adopted, Maine will receive additional CDBG money that it will provide to the utilities to cover only those incremental costs the PUC says are prudent and directly related to the storm.

Without this additional assistance, the ratepayers of Maine will cover the costs through rate increases. CMP has said it will need a ten percent rate hike to cover its costs so 77 percent of the utility customers in Maine will pay 10 percent more. Bangor Hydro has said its rates will need to increase three percent to cover the storm costs.

One question I asked myself was what about insurance? The utilities do have insurance, and it is determined by their regulating body. The coverage, a dollar figure determined on past risk experience, is set aside. For CMP that is $3.9 million, enough to deal with several major outages -- 20,000 to 40,000 households -- a year.

Because of the extensive damage done to utilities as a result of Hurricanes Hugo, Iniki and Andrew, the ability of utilities to obtain traditional insurance coverage has become very costly. CMP was offered one policy that provided $15 million worth of coverage. To get this coverage, the deductible was $5 million and the yearly premium was another $5 million. So, they were being asked to pay $10 million to get $5 million worth of coverage. Even with this coverage, Mr. President, CMP would have been left with $54 million in uncovered costs.

The fact is that the 1998 Ice Storm was a 100 year storm. The Chair of the Historical Committee of the American Meteorological Association, who happens to reside in Maine, has said that "So far this century, there has been nothing like it. It will probably make the meteorological text books -- even history books -- as one of the biggest storms ever." To put this storm into perspective, I want to share a comparison of the damage done by Hurricane Gloria in 1985 and Hurricane Bob in 1991 with the Ice Storm of 98. The Ice Storm destroyed 3,050 utility poles compared to 350 as a result of Hurricane Bob. One million feet of cable had to be replaced in January compared with 52,000 feet in 1991. It took 1,048 crews working 23 days to restore power to everyone in January. It took 320 crews working 8 days to restore power after Hurricane Gloria.

The Ice Storm was simply unprecedented. Nothing had caused damage that even comes close to the Ice Storm. The utilities self-insured for the types of storms they were used to dealing with. They couldn't insure for this storm -- because it was completely outside the realm of their experience and therefore, their expectations.

And it is because the Ice Storm was a once in a hundred year storm that the people of Maine, and Vermont and New York have asked the federal government for assistance in addressing the costs associated with it. Without this assistance the ratepayers will be asked to bear the burden of a rate hike. This will be in addition to all the other storm-related costs they have already paid.

Many of my colleagues know, from the experiences in their own states, the true costs of a disaster. Based on this experience, I would ask them to lend their assistance to the people of Maine, Vermont and upstate New York to provide this much needed assistance, and I urge them to support this amendment.

This money is urgently needed to assist the people of my State recover from the worst natural disaster in Maine history. I refer, of course, to the unprecedented Ice Storm that began, innocently enough, as a light rain on the morning of January 7, 1998 and ended four days later with our State encased in as much as 10 inches of solid ice. The additional CDBG funding will help not only Maine, but New York and Vermont as well, rebuild the electric infrastructure of our three states.

I want to pay a special thanks to the Chairman of the Appropriations Committee, to the Chairman of the Subcommittee on VA, HUD, and Independent Agencies, and to all of the Committee members for recognizing the harm caused by the Ice Storm and for providing a mechanism whereby we can secure sorely needed aid. Their cooperation is greatly appreciated by the people of Maine.

Mr. President, the Ice Storm of 1998 was unlike anything Maine had ever seen. Having grown up in the most northern part of the State, I know something about ice and snow. But this was less like a storm and more like a carefully targeted and highly effective attack on our electric transmission and distribution system. The damage to that system in Maine alone was $81 million, a formidable sum for the ratepayers of a small state.

Mr. President, there is an erroneous belief in some quarters that because the CDBG money would be used to rebuild the electric infrastructure of investor owned utilities, it will benefit a private corporation and its shareholders. That is not the case. Under the law, a utility earning less than its allowed rate of return, as is the situation with the two Maine utilities, is constitutionally entitled to pass along prudently incurred costs to its ratepayers. And there can be little doubt that the cost of rebuilding the system by which electricity is delivered to our homes and businesses is not only a prudent cost, but indeed, a cost that must be incurred.

Let me make this point somewhat differently. Without federal help, the money to rebuild the system will not come from corporate coffers. It will not come from the pockets of company executives. It will not come from the dividends or equity of shareholders.

Who will bear the expense? It will be the elderly widow who heats her mobile home with electricity and is already struggling to pay her bills. It will be the small company that uses electricity in its manufacturing process and is already fighting an uphill battle because its power costs are 40% above the national average. Indeed, it will be virtually all Maine's ratepayers, who because we all use electricity, are really the same as Maine's taxpayers. That makes them the very people who have paid their fair share to help defray the costs of natural disasters that have struck other regions.

Mr. President, let me dispel another potential misconception. This assistance will not result in special treatment for the citizens of Maine, New York, and Vermont, but rather put them on an equal footing with people in other parts of the country.

To be more specific, it is well established that federal emergency aid can be made available to municipally owned utilities and electric cooperatives. Some might argue that ours is a different situation, in that we are dealing with investor owned utilities. Once again, that argument would make sense if the utility stood to benefit from the relief. But it is the ratepayers who will be assisted by this amendment, and there is no reason why the victims of a natural disaster should be helped if they are customers of a municipal utility or an electric cooperative but not if they are customers of an investor owned utility.

Mr. President, in the case at hand, the utilities are really like the post office. They deliver the bills; they do not pay them. Without the CDBG money made available through this amendment, the people who will pay are those to whom the bills will ultimately come -- the ordinary citizens of Maine, New York, and Vermont. And since, unlike a progressive tax system, electric rates are not based on income, those who will be hurt the most will be those least able to afford it.

Of greatest significance is the following observation in the President's report: "The single most critical concern is the loss of electric power caused by the storm." Let me supplement the description in the President's report with facts from Maine. For at least some part of the storm, more than 800,000 people, or seven our of every ten of our residents, lost power. In most instances, they went without electricity for days, lasting in some cases as long as two weeks. When you contemplate this, keep in mind that it occurred in the dead of winter -- not a Washington winter but a Maine winter.

The storm spared no one. Not homes, not businesses, not public buildings. Schools across the southern half of the State closed, causing some to cancel their winter vacations to make up part of the lost time. Even the National Weather Service in Gray, Maine lost power for more than a week, during which time it struggled mightily to track weather developments with a less than fully reliable generator. For many, the experience was like the movie, "The Day the Earth Stood Still." Only it lasted far more than a day and occurred during the most difficult time of year.

The restoration of power involved a monumental effort taking 17 days. Twelve hundred utility crews from as far away as Nova Scotia, North Carolina, and Michigan were sent to Maine to help with the effort. Approximately 3000 utility poles and three million feet of electric cable had to be replaced. All of the poles in one ten-mile stretch were down, cutting off power to a large section of a rural county. In the words of Maine's Governor, it seemed like a huge monster had walked across the state deliberately stepping on all of the electric lines in its path.

As if guided by a perverse force, the Ice Storm of 1998 struck a region with some of the highest electric prices in the country. The rates in both Maine and the affected areas of New York are 40% above the national average. Thus, without this federal assistance, the rebuilding costs will fall on some of our country's most heavily burdened ratepayers.

Some of the areas hit by the storm were already economically distressed. Indeed, looking at the entire region, one observer has concluded that the victims of the storm were predominantly persons of low and moderate income who, even without increased electric rates, have been seriously harmed by this disaster.

Mr. President, the two utilities serving the areas affected by the storm in Maine are not wealthy. Indeed, one has been wrestling with serious money problems, and the financial performance of the other has been mediocre at best.

Furthermore, while they are private companies, they are also public utilities. When the ice storm hit, they could not shut down operations. They could not leave the state until times were better. To the contrary, they had a legal and moral obligation to do whatever it took to restore power to people desperately in need of electricity. While their performance will ultimately be judged by the State Public Utilities Commission, there is no evidence that they made anything less than a maximum effort to discharge their public responsibility.

Under these circumstances, should the utilities be able to recover from the ratepayers the cost of rebuilding Maine's electric infrastructure? I would be hard pressed to say that would be an unreasonable result, but in the final analysis, my opinion is irrelevant. What matters, and the only thing that matters, is that the law mandates such a result.

They have gladly paid their fair share to help their neighbors in California recover from earthquakes, to help their neighbors in the Midwest recover from floods, and to help their neighbors in the Southeast recover from hurricanes. Their generosity has to not been limited to money, as they have sent men and women to fight forest fires in the Northwest. They have not split hairs over the precise source or nature of the harm. As long as the ultimate victims of a disaster have been ordinary citizens like themselves, they have stood ready to help.

Mr. President, I would like to join Senator Snowe and my other Colleagues from the Northeast in thanking Senator Stevens and Senator Byrd for agreeing to include emergency Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funding in the disaster supplemental. This funding is desperately needed to assist in recovery in areas where there are significant gaps in existing disaster programs.

On January 9, the Northeast was hit by an ice storm of an unprecedented scale. The storm downed trees and power lines throughout the northeast. In Vermont, one power company alone replaced more than 50 miles of power lines and 200 power poles. Crews came from as far away as Hawaii to aid in the effort to restore power to the 10,000 people left without electricity for up to 11 days during what is traditionally one of the coldest months of the year. Damage to Vermont utilities was extensive in the six counties declared disaster areas, with storm damage totaling over $9 million. Of that, only $552,648 was covered by FEMA.

The storm was unique in the type of damage it inflicted -- buildings, roads, and water and sewer systems were left largely untouched, but electric utility lines and trees were wiped out completely in some areas and suffered significant damage throughout the region. This is not the kind of damage traditional disaster programs were designed to address, as the "Blueprint for Action" report FEMA produced after the storm makes clear. According to that report "the single most critical concern is the loss of electric power caused by the storm." The Community Development Block Grant program is designed to provide flexible funding to promote economic development. That is exactly the kind of assistance needed to repair the damage to the power infrastructure in the Northeast. The most serious concern raised by the damage to the utility system is the cost it will impose on all Vermont rate payers. At 11.29 cents per kilowatt hour, utility rates in New England are already 64% higher than the national average. This increased cost of doing business is a significant hurdle to attracting and keeping businesses in Vermont. The cost of the storm damage is expected to force some utility companies to seek further increases in electric rates. Any increase would be a serious blow to economic development throughout the region.

The need for Federal assistance to recover from the ice storm is not the result of poor planning on the part of the utilities. All of the affected utilities built average annual storm damage costs into their rate structure. However, the cost of this one storm was so extraordinarily high, that it dwarfed those set-asides. One company is facing damage from this one storm equal to eight times its annual budget for emergency repairs. This is not a cost that these companies can just absorb.

Ted Stevens

Mr. President, this amendment will provide $260 million for emergency Community Development Block Grants that will fund disaster relief, long-term recovery, and mitigation in communities affected by Presidentially declared disasters that have occurred in this fiscal year, 1998. This funding is needed to supplement funding provided through the more traditional emergency disaster programs under the Federal Emergency Management Agency, FEMA, the Small Business Administration, SBA, and the Army Corps of Engineers.

I have concerns about using CDBG funds for emergency purposes, especially since the Department of Housing and Urban Development did not really provide adequate data and accountability concerning the use of these emergency CDBG funds in the past. Nevertheless, this legislation is designed to ensure that funds go to disaster relief activities that are identified by the Director of FEMA as unmet needs that have not been or will not be addressed by other Federal disaster assistance programs.

In addition, to assure accountability, States must provide a 25 percent match for these emergency CDBG funds and HUD must publish a notice of program requirements and provide an accounting of CDBG funds by the type of activity and the amount of funding and the recipient.

I am pleased that we are finally providing this money as emergency money -- off budget. As you know, the VA-HUD subcommittee is annually raided to provide funds for disasters in our emergency supplemental appropriations bill.

Often, the result is that we have to make decisions about cutting critical programs at agencies like the VA, HUD, EPA, NASA or the National Science Foundation to provide funds for the much needed emergency recovery efforts.

The emergency funds provided with this amendment is our way in Congress, in a clear way, of working for the people. When people are suffering, trying to rebuild lives, homes and communities, it is no time to be partisan. The citizens we serve deserve a swift, decisive and effective response.

So far this year, there have been Presidential disaster declarations in 17 States and territories. These disasters include snowstorms, typhoons, tornadoes, flooding, and ice storms. Most of these disasters have been related to the weather phenomenon we now know as El Nino.

While funds are currently available in the disaster relief fund, there are not sufficient funds on hand to meet the total costs which are estimated to stem from current disasters. In fact, FEMA estimates it will need every penny currently in the disaster relief fund to meet the existing cost projections of more than $3 billion from the disasters that have occurred prior to fiscal year 1998.

Included in the $1.6 billion appropriations request are funds for disasters which are also anticipated to occur in fiscal year 1998 based on the 5-year historical average cost of disaster relief. To date, FEMA disaster relief has been running very close to that 5-year average, despite the fact that a number of Senators and some people have raised questions about there being more damage that is caused by El Nino than has been caused in recent years.

I support FEMA's expeditious provision of aid to many of the needy communities that are stricken by disasters and wish to be sure that the disaster fund is fully funded, but, as I stated yesterday, I continue to be deeply concerned about the cost of disaster relief. Each year, we are seeing these costs rise exponentially, and the need for cost containment now is paramount. I urge the authorizing committees to look at these costs and determine if there is some way to reduce the costs for these funds. In the last 5 years, we have appropriated a staggering $18 billion to FEMA for disaster relief compared to $6.7 billion for the prior 5-year period. Clearly, the costs associated with disaster relief are growing out of control.

Unfortunately, we also have learned over the past few years that disaster funds have gone to some facilities like golf courses or to refurbish shrubbery in high-income communities, to facilities associated with universities that already have impressive endowments and revenue-generating capabilities, and to provide housing assistance to some who are really not in need. I really hope that the administration will realize it must put controls on these expenditures if FEMA is to continue to get the support of the Congress.

Moreover, Senator Bond, over the last few years, has pushed FEMA to submit a legislative plan of reforms to control disaster costs. With some reluctance, FEMA did submit a proposal for reforming the Stafford Act last summer. The proposed amendments address several very important areas, including new incentives for mitigation, streamlining the grant process, and eliminating certain facilities currently eligible for disaster relief, such as I said, golf courses. It is critical that this FEMA reform legislation be acted upon by the authorizing committees this year, and I urge them to work with Senator Bond to enact these reforms.

Meanwhile, while it is clear that we expect and need reform of FEMA programs, we also believe that Congress must complete action on this disaster relief funding legislation as quickly as possible, so that the disaster needs of our communities can be met.

I see the Senator from Oklahoma is here. I wish to state, I did reconsider the vote on the prior amendment. I did not know whether it was this amendment or the prior amendment that the Senator wished to address. If he wishes to address the first one, I will be happy to withdraw that and bring it back to where the Senator can offer an amendment to it.

If the Senator will yield, I appreciate his willingness to do that, because I am opposed to both amendments. I do not find that to be necessary. I will confine my remarks to this amendment. My guess is the outcome would be identical. But I feel rather strongly about it.

Mr. President, yesterday Senator Gramm had an amendment that said let's fund the 1998 emergencies and we will call it an emergency; we don't have to have an offset. That was the underlying bill. The underlying bill had money for defense, money for Iraq, money for Bosnia, money for the so-called emergencies -- weather-related emergencies. I thought he had a good amendment. I did not speak out on the floor, and I wish I had. That was on the underlying bill, which is about $3.3 billion. Now we are looking at an amendment to expand that bill by an additional $1.6 billion. I ask the Senator from Missouri, is that correct -- $1.6 billion for FEMA?

That is correct. The amendment would appropriate an additional $1.6 billion for FEMA.

The reason I ask the question is because I have heard this figure bandied around the last few days. But anyway, FEMA did not request any money initially. This is a late request. This is a late request, and the Senators from Missouri or Alaska can correct me if I am wrong, this request did not come in from the administration when they were marking up the bill; this request just came in lately: "Oh, we need an additional $1.6 billion for disasters that we think might happen. And, oh, yes, we want to call it an emergency." What does that mean? By calling it an emergency means there will be no offsets. These emergencies have not happened yet, but we are basically going to take this $1.6 billion, and most of the money, I might mention, will be spent in 1999 and the year 2000, maybe 2001. The money is going to be spent in the future, but, "Oh, we don't have to put that in the budget." I am on the Budget Committee, and we had an agreement. The President signed that agreement, and he said, "Here's how much money we are going to spend on discretionary accounts," and we passed it. The President in his State of the Union Address bragged about how good that is: "Boy, now we have a balanced budget. We are going to have a balanced budget for a long time because we worked together." Well, this is voiding that agreement. This is saying, let's take $1.6 billion for the future and we are going to call it an emergency and, therefore, we don't have to have any offsets -- none. It is just going to come out of, I guess, the surplus.

Guess what? The budget that we are going to be considering next week talks about the surplus. Senator Domenici did a very good job in working it through. Guess how much the surplus is in the year 2000 when probably most of this money would be spent. The surplus is $1 billion. And we are working on an emergency supplemental, if we adopt this amendment, which will be over $5 billion and probably a couple billion of that will be spent in the year 2000. In other words, certainly if we adopt this amendment, we are going to be spending 100 percent of the surplus in 2 years. And we are spending real money.

I just don't think we should do it. If FEMA wants to ask for this money, it should be in their budget. They come before the appropriators. Senator Bond does a very capable job in that subcommittee. They can come up and say, "Here is the historical average; therefore, we should have a couple billion dollars a year in FEMA for our budget." They have not done that. What they are really trying to do is, "Hey, we want to get around the budget." In other words, we have a cap on discretionary spending but we are not going to include FEMA, like it doesn't count, even though we have historical averages.

I do not think we should prefund the account and call it an emergency. If we want to prefund it, fine. I am just saying we should take the emergency designation off. We should not declare it an emergency; it has not happened. Frankly, if we have an emergency in 3 months, FEMA will not be able to spend the money until the year 1999, and we won't have an appropriations bill. Let's go through the appropriations process.

Mr. President, the essence of this amendment, I tell my colleagues, is it says that we allow the money to go in for an additional amount for disaster relief, $1.6 billion to remain available until expended, period. What I am deleting is the emergency. The additional part of this amendment says that I am deleting "provided these funds will be available only to the extent the official budget request for a specific amount includes the designation of the entire amount of the request as an emergency requirement defined in the Balanced Budget Emergency Control Act of 1985," and so on.

In other words, I am striking the emergency section of this request. So we can put the money in. If there is an emergency, by golly, FEMA has the money; it can pay it. So nobody should say, "Hey, you took money away from my emergency." What it does mean is, in the budget next year we are going to have to include whatever portion of that $1.6 billion would be spent in 1999 in the budget. We have caps to spend about $580 billion, I am going to guess, next year in the discretionary accounts. This is going to have to be part of it, or, in the year 2000, this will be part of it. This means we still may be able to have a surplus in 2002. It means maybe our budgets mean something.

How in the world can you have a budget and say we are going to have caps on discretionary spending and then we say, "Oh, we're going to fund in advance future emergencies, and, oh, yes, we're not going to count that as part of the budget and it's not necessary to affect the caps"?

Domestic total discretionary spending increased from $274 billion in 1997 to $288 billion in 1998. That is more than a 5 percent increase, and that is for the year we are in right now. All I am saying is if we are going to future fund FEMA, it ought to be in the budget.

I do not object to adding $1.6 billion so FEMA will have the money, and if there is an emergency this year, they can pay for it; if there is an emergency next year, they can pay for it. But what I am objecting to is having it classified as an emergency in advance so there have to be no offsets.

I just think that if we are going to be spending next year in total discretionary spending, that it should be included and get away from this game of, "Oh, we're only going to fund a few couple hundred million dollars in FEMA, and, oh, yes, if an emergency comes up, we will just declare an emergency and it doesn't count." I do not want to spend 100 percent of the surplus in 2000 on this bill. I think that is a serious mistake.

I urge my colleagues to allow the funding to go forward for FEMA, but let's strike the emergency section of this bill so in the future years it will have to be paid for. We will have to incorporate that in our total amount of spending so that our budget will mean something; so a budget that we are going to be working very hard and probably have several contentious and tough votes on, probably a good debate on in the next few days, will mean something.

It is a heck of a deal for people to be saying, "Oh, yes, we're fighting for a balanced budget; oh, we can waive the budget, we can waive it in the future, we don't have to budget for emergencies." We should budget for emergencies. We should have truth in budgeting. We should say, "Hey, this should be included and it shouldn't be exempt from the budget." I did not say anything about the $3.3 billion. I think Senator Gramm was right yesterday, but we did not touch that. Certainly if we are going to take it from $3.3 billion to over $5 billion, which is what we are getting ready to do -- we started with an appropriations request from the administration that started around $2 billion, and the administration keeps sending amendments up: "Oh, yes, now we have a little amendment; we want another $300 billion, some $260 billion, I think, for community block development grants," that was just adopted. "Now we have another little amendment, $1.6 billion for FEMA; "oh, yeah, we would like that, too." They did not give us that request when we had the markup. They did not give us that request 2 weeks ago. But all of a sudden, they just determined a new need. The reason they determined a new need, in my opinion, is they said, "Hey, if this is an emergency, this will give us more money to spend next year for other purposes." I think that is wrong. I think it is a serious mistake.

Mr. President, while I appreciate the concerns of the Senator from Oklahoma, let me clarify one point that I think may be somewhat confusing. The funding in this amendment is to reimburse FEMA and to cover costs for disasters occurring in this and prior fiscal years, not in future fiscal years. It would simply allow us to begin fiscal year 1999 without an enormous, outstanding disaster relief requirement. In particular, this $1.6 billion appropriation includes funds to cover the costs of disasters anticipated to occur in the balance of fiscal year 1998. This amendment is not about advance funding, but is intended to provide the necessary funding only for disaster relief requirements for fiscal year 1998 and prior years.

The Senator from Oklahoma has expressed his concern about the cost of disaster relief. No one has been more concerned about the cost of disaster relief than I. In our subcommittee, we have held a number of hearings focused almost solely on FEMA reform and the exploding costs of disaster relief. In response to these hearings, we demanded that the administration and FEMA submit a responsible package of Stafford Act amendments. While FEMA has provided a package of FEMA reform amendments, these are a difficult sell, although we remain hopeful that the authorizing committees will work to implement these and other reforms.

I emphasize that we need to amend the Stafford Act. We also need administrative changes. Nevertheless, at the same time, these FEMA funds of $1.6 billion are needed now to meet current FEMA requirements. This appropriation is needed to ensure that we have adequate funding for disaster relief.

Nevertheless, there are a number of us who are very much concerned about the cost of disaster relief. Each year, we see the costs of disaster relief rising exponentially. The need for cost containment is paramount. For example, in the last 5 years, we have appropriated a staggering $18 billion to FEMA for disaster relief, compared to $6.7 billion in the prior 5-year period. While I know we have had some major disasters in the last 5 years, we also had significant disasters in the previous 5 years. The costs are clearly out of control.

As I have noted, for several years, I requested that FEMA submit a legislative plan to control disaster costs. After cajoling and arm twisting, threats of reduced funding, FEMA finally submitted a proposal for reforming the Stafford Act last summer. The proposed amendments address several very important areas, including new incentives for mitigation, streamlining the grant process, and eliminating certain facilities currently eligible for disaster relief, such as golf courses.

This is how we must address the cost of disaster relief. It is far better for authorizing legislation to say what we are going to replace and for what we are going to provide assistance. It is very difficult to address disaster relief issues after the fact when people come to the floor and there is a great outpouring of sympathy. I have been here, I have done that, I have seen it. We have a T-shirt with it emblazoned on it. Once there is a disaster, people come in and they have all of these needs for disaster assistance. And I might say that this body has been extremely generous and, in some ways, we have opened the floodgates.

Well, we are not talking with this amendment about what we would do in the future. We are talking about requirements that have already occurred. I strongly agree that in the future we should limit disaster aid to those truly in need, to people, to entities, to communities that cannot protect themselves against disaster. If they are a profitmaking business, if they are a revenue-generating business, then let them purchase insurance, let them take care of their needs in advance. We need to come in and help those who truly cannot help themselves. However, until we do that, we have to do something to fund and to provide the resources for the commitments already made.

If the Nickles amendment succeeds or if this amendment is not adopted, we are going to be facing in the VA-HUD Subcommittee a $4 billion lien against the bill. And there will be some very untenable choices. We are the ones, Senator Mikulski and I, who have to take the first cut at funding the programs in the VA/HUD Appropriations Subcommittee. To be clear, without this amendment, it will be very difficult for us to even meet the President's request for Veterans Administration medical care, which is $40 million less than the fiscal year 1998 level. We would be shorting veterans medical care which is not acceptable. In addition, we would be forced to make drastic cuts to low-income housing, including elderly housing, EPA, and Superfund, as well as important space and science programs.

I can tell you that this will not be pretty. I can tell you that the disasters have occurred and that commitments have been made. The question is, will we, in this measure, replenish those funds and carry through on the obligations FEMA has made for this year?

As we look to the future, I would love to see us get disaster relief under control with an appropriate authorizing reform measure and also adjust the budget for regular and timely disaster appropriations. Disaster relief needs are running over $3 billion a year -- to some $3.6 billion a year. If we are serious about meeting FEMA disaster requirements in the future, I would love to see the budget take account of the needed $3.6 billion worth of FEMA disaster relief requirements each year. We are not there yet, but I am committed to getting FEMA disaster relief and disaster relief requirements under control.

Now, Mr. President, let me take a few minutes to say that during the last 5 years FEMA has reformed itself. Prior to James Lee Witt becoming the Administrator, FEMA itself in the way it responded to disasters was a disaster. Each President -- Mr. Reagan and then Mr. Bush -- often had to send in a trusted aide to oversee whenever disast
