EXECUTIVE OFFICE OF THE PRESIDENT
OFFICE OF MANAGEMENT AND BUDGET
WASHINGTON. D.C. 20503
September 28, 1984
BULLETIN NO. 84-18
TO THE HEADS OF EXECUTIVE DEPARTMENTS AND ESTABLISHMENTS
SUBJECT: Information for.a. Report to the Congress on the Status
of Recommendations made by the, President's Private
Sector Survey ?on Cost Control
1. Purpose. This Bulletin provides? instructions for the
submission of information on the status of the recommendations
made by the President's Private Sector Survey on Cost Control.
2. Badkground. During the past year, OMB, affected departments
and agencies, and the White House's Office of Cabinet Affairs
(OCA) have been reviewing the reports issued by the President's
Private Sector Survey on Cost Control (PPSSCC). The OCA reviews
are'continuing, as are follow-on reviews by the Cabinet Council
on Management and Administration (CCMA) and the Defense Resources
Board (DRB) for recommendations that are within their, areas of
responsibility.
0 Section 2903 of the Deficit Reduction Act of 1984 requires the
President to ?transmit a report with the 1986 Budget on the status
of the cost savings that have resulted or will result from
management improvement recommendations. The report will contain
a listing of the? recommendations made by PPSSCC that .have been
'reviewed by the President; along with the actions taken or
proposed to be taken, and will contain savings associated with
the proposals for fiscal years 1985, 1986, and 1987.
The information collected under this Bulletin will be used to
respond to the requirements of the Act, and for other analyses of
savings from management initiatives.
3. Methodolo_gy.
a. Issues and recommendations. The PPSSCC made 2478
recommendations associated with 784 explicit issues. The
information?cotlected for this Bulletin will be reported
as follows:
-- at the Dissuen level when a single decision is made
for all the recommendations within an issue;
Declassified in Part - Sanitized Copy Approved for Release 2013/08/01 : CIA-RDP06M00944R000200160002-7
Declassified in Part - Sanitized Copy Approved for Release 2013/08/01 : CIA-RDP06M00944R000200160062-7
at the "recommendation" level when a single decision
Is made for a single recommendation that is different
from decisions made for one or more other? 0
recomthendations within the issue; or
at an aggregated recommendation level within an issue
when a single decision is made for a group of
recommendations within an issue. (In such cases, all
remaining recommendations within that issue to which
a:single decision applies may be included in a single
worksheet.)
The issues and related reeommendations or individual
recommendations (when a decision 'applies to a single
recommendation) will be identified by the numbering
system contained in the individual reports (e.g. Treas-2
(for an issue), Asset 4-06 (for a recommendation), Asset
4-01 to 4-05 and 4-07 (for an aggregate of
recommendations), etc.). Information will be reporteb on
all issues and related recommendations, including items
;Tire no savings were identified by PPSSCC.
b. Savings, revenue enhancements, and cash accelerations.
The PPSSCC reports identify cost reduction measures as
savings, revenue enhancements, or cash accelerations.
However, the savings estimates announced by the PPSSCC
are a combination of savings estimates and revenue
enhancements. Cash accelerations were excluded since
they represent a compressed timeframe for the collection
of receipts rather than a change in total receipts
collected over a longer period. For data submissions
under this Bulletin, no distinction will be made between
savings and revenue enhancements other than whether the
issue will result in a reduction in outlays or an
increase in receipts levels (see 5a below). No
information on cash accelerations will be reported.
2
c. Employment reductions. If the implementation of an issue
will result in a reduction of 'full-time equivalent
employment (FTE), the FTE savings will be stated in terms
of reductions from a benchmark defined as the latest 1985
FTE ceiling. Reductions in FTE for FY 1986 and 1987 will
be reported as incremental additional reductions from the
benchmark for each respective year. .
4. Responsibilities. Attachment A contains a liSting of issues
for which each agency is responsible. In certain cases, an
agency has been assigned the lead to coordinate the information
with other agencies. The lead agency is listed first in
Attachment A, followed by other affected agencies that should

(:)contribute the required data for completing the? worksheets
described below. . However, other interested agencies not
identified with a particular issue in the -Attachment may supply
additional views through the lead agency. .
5. Material required. Two copies of data submission worksheets
for each PPSSCC issue for which each agency is responsible will
be provided under separate cover. A sample worksheet is shown in
Exhibit 1. If a separate worksheet is needed to report
information related to a specific recommendation within an issue,
the issue worksheet should be duplicated for the recommendation,
and numbered "1 of 3", etc., to indicate the number of worksheets
submitted for each issue.
Each worksheet will be completed with the following inforMation.
a. Account number or 'numbers. Each issue worksheet will
identify the budget account(s) in which the ' savings
associated With' that issue will be realized. In most
cases, the report.will indicate an appropriation or fund
account where a reduction to outlays will occur due to
reduced obligations or increased offsetting collections
credited to the account. The appropriation or fund
account symbol will be the 11-digit symbol, including the
subfundtion(s), as. described in section 21.3 of OMB
Circular No. A-11. When more than one account is
involved, each account will be :listed.
Implementation of certain issues will result in increased
receipts. These receipts will be credited. to Treasury
receipt accounts and should be reported by the 2-digit
Treasury agency code and the 4-digit Treasury receipt
account symbol code, along with the decimal suffixes as
appropriate, as described in section 28 of OMB Circular
No. A-11.
b. Issue category (or recommendation category, when the
worksheet covers only one of several recommendations
within an issue) and savings estimates. The issues (or
recommendations) will be assigned to one of the three
following categories. Savings estimates will not be
required for category 3.
(1). Issues (or recommendations) that have already been
put into effect, whether by law or administrative
process. This group includes all issues put into
effect before and during the period that. the PPSSCC
was drafting the reports, as well as those
proposals put int' effect that were reflected in
the 1985 Budget ortprevious budgets, regardless of

Declassified in Part - Sanitized Copy Approved for Release 2013/08/01 : CIA-RDP06M00944R000200160002-7
ine year(s) in which the savings would be realized.
Outlay and FTE teductions reported for this group
of issues should reflectthe increases to the 1985
and earlier budget levels that would have been
OceSsary. if .the issues had not been implemented.
Savings should be allocated to specific years and
aCcoUnts on the "worksheets. In cases where more
? than one account is involved, separate savings.
estimates will be made for each. If years OrioP tef
1985are affected, report those savings by year and.
account on a separate sheet attached to the
? worksheet. Explanatory comments should be provided
where necessary.
'(2). Issues (or recommendations) that were proposed in
the 1985 or previous budgets but that were not put
into effect, and issues that will be .reflected for
the ,first time in the 1986 Budget. The savings
will be. reported as reductions in FTE from 1985
ceilings and reductions to.outlays for fiscal years
1985-1990 from the latest current services levels
for those years as reflected in or, for 1990;
consistent with the Mid-Session Review of the 1985
Budget for each account. In cases where More than
one- account is involved, separate savings estimates ?
will be made for each account for each year on the .
same worksheet. (For further information on the
concept of current services, see section 27 of OMB
Circular No. A-11.) The savings identified in this
category will be consistent with the decttions.made
through the PPSSCC forum chaired by the White...
? House's Office of Cabinet Affairs (OCA).
The review status of the decision on each issue (or
recommendation) will be indicated on each Worksheet
as: ,
review completed by OCA/CCMA/DRB and final
decisions made;
review completed, but decisions. pending '(e.g.
-level of savings to be acheived each year, timing .
of implementation); or
review pending. In csses. where review pr a
necessary decision is pending, the savings
estimates should reflect prepminary evaluStioht.
and should be discussed with OMB representatives.

In addition to the FTE and outlay reduction estimates
for 1985-1990, worksheets for category 2 will include
an identification of whether legislation, including
appropriations language, is required. Explanatory
? comments should be 'provided where necessary.
3. All other PPSSCC issues (or recommendations). These
issues (or recommendations) are not being considered
at this time because they appear to be legislatively
or programmatically infeasible or because further
study of them is needed before a decision can be made
on them. The worksheet will be completed to identify
the account(s) in which the savings would occur. No
repricing or allocation to a specific year of dollar
and personnel saving is necessary at this time.
Explanatory comments should be provided where
necessary.
6. Timing. Reports will be submitted to OMB on the following
schedule:
Category 1 issues (or

EXECUTIVE OFFICE OF THE PRESIDENT
OFFICE OF MANAGEMENT AND BUDGET
WASHINGTON. D.C. 20503
December 20, 1984
BULLETIN NO. 84-17, Supplement No. 2
TO THE HEADS OF EXECUTIVE DEPARTMENTS AND ESTABLISHMENTS
SUBJECT: Section 2901 Savings
1. Purpose. This Supplement provides instructions on submission
of materials on section 2901 rescission proposals that will be
used to prepare the 1986 Budget and related publications. It
also instructs agencies to submit the usual information for other
rescission proposals. In addition, guidance is provided on
implementing the requirements of section 515 of the
Treasury-Postal Service Appropriations Act, 1985.
2. Background. Section 2901 of the Deficit Reduction Act of
1984 (P.L. 98-369) requires Executive Branch agencies to achieve
savings in specific categories (e.g., travel, consulting
services, etc.) and requires the Director of OMB to transmit a
report to the Congress on the savings achieved. The report
providing information on these savings will be transmitted at
about the same time as the 1986 Budget.
Previous issuances (OMB Bulletin No. 84-17, dated August 8, 1984,
and Supplement 1 to OMB Bulletin No. 84-17, dated November 8,
1984) provided guidance to agencies on establishing baseline
estimates and applying pro-rata reductions to these estimates.
Earlier instructions (Supplement 1) indicated that materials on
section 2901 savings would be prepared after final decisions are
made on these savings. As prescribed by paragraph 9, the timing
of submissions has been changed. Information is required after
initial passback of budget decisions on section 2901, and will be
revised as necessary after final decisions are made.
These materials are needed to prepare the 1986 Budget, a special
message on the section 2901, and the required report to the.
Congress.
Earlier instructions did not take into account the requirements
of section 515 of the Treasury-Postal Service Appropriations Act,
1985 (Attachment A), enacted by reference in the Continuing
Resolution for 1985 (P.L. 98-473). This section requires that
certain agencies withhold from obligation 10 percent of the
amount intended for consulting services, management and
professional services, and special studies and analyses for
fiscal year 1985 in the President's budget, as amended. Guidance
0 on these requirements is included in this Supplement.

3. Coverage. These instructions apply to the agencies listed in
Attachment A of Supplement 1 to OMB Bulletin No. 84-17.
4. Definitions. For the purposes of this Supplement, the
definitions in OMB Bulletin No. 84-17 apply.
5. Required materials. For rescissions not involving section
2901 savings, agencies are required to submit the usual
information required for the Budget Appendix and special messages
to the Congress. Required materials for section 2901 rescission
proposals are specified in paragraphs 6, 7, and 8.
6. Budget Appendix and budget data base. All proposed
rescissions will be printed in Part II of the Budget Appendix and
included In the budget data base. New print materials for these
proposals will be coded as rescission proposals (transmittal code
5).
a. Section 2901 rescission proposals. For each section 2901
rescission proposal, agencies are required to provide a:
program and financing (P&F) schedule;
object classification schedule;
summary of budget authority and outlays schedule; and
supplementary sources data (sections A, B, C, and D).
(1) Program and financing schedule. No detail should be
provided for the program by activity section of the P&F schedule;
line 10.00 should be the first entry on the schedule.
(2) Object classification schedule. Agencies will prepare
object classification schedules in accordance with OMB Circular
No. A-11.
(3) Narrative. Agencies will not need to prepare a
narrative statement for section 2901 rescission proposals because
OMB will prepare a standard narrative statement for them.
(4) Summary of Budget Authority and Outlays Schedule.
Each rescission proposal will be reflected in the "Summary of
Budget Authority and Outlays" schedule that is printed in Part I
of the Appendix for each account that includes a rescission
proposal. Agencies will ensure that the total amount of the
reduction in budget authority and outlays associated with the
proposals shown in Part II is included in the rescission proposal
line of the "Summary of Budget Authority and Outlays schedule."

(5) Supplementary Source Data. Agencies will also ensure
that proposed rescissions are included in the supplementary
source data (sections A, 8: C, and D) in the BPS data base.
Changes will be input directly into the computer data file by
agencies linked to the OMB/agency network; otherwise OMB will
enter the data based on SSD data submitted by the agencies.
b. Other rescissioncproposals. For these
are required to submit print materials,
narrative statements in accordance with OMB
The "Summary of Budget Authority and Outlays"
reflect these rescission proposals.
These requirements also apply to rescission proposals
involving both section 2901 and other savings, except that the
narrative statement is required to cover only the portion of the
rescission proposal that does not involve section 2901 savings.
OMB will combine this narrative with the standard section 2901
narrative for the Part II Appendix presentation of these
rescission proposals. In addition, OMB will prepare a text table
distinguishing between these amounts for Part II.
c. Section 515 withholdings. Agencies will determine the
accounts affected by section 515 of the Treasury-Postal Service
Appropriations Act, 1985 and withhold from obligation 10 percent
of the amount intended for consulting services for 1985. For
accounts subject to apportionment, amounts reserved pursuant to
section 515 will be reported on line 5 of the S.F. 132 (Portion
not available pursuant to law). (The legal authority cited on
line 5 will be P.L. 98-473.) In addition, these amounts will be
reported on line 5 of the S.F. 133 for all affected accounts,
whether or not they are apportioned.
(NOTE: Amounts reserved pursuant to section 515 will be excluded
from section 2901 amounts proposed for rescission. However, they
will be identified in the report to the Congress along with
amounts proposed for rescission as section 2901 savings.)

7. Special messages on rescission proposals. Two special
messages will be transmitted to the Congress in conjunction with
the 1986 Budget. The first will contain only proposed
rescissions of section 2901 savings; the second will reflect all
other proposed rescissions and deferrals associated with the 1986
Budget.
a. Rescission proposals involving only section 2901 savings.
For the special message on section g0i , agencies are required to
submit information by account and category, identifying the
amounts to be rescinded. This information will be submitted in
the format of Exhibit 1 and in accordance with the Attachment B.

Agencies are also required to submit a reapportionment
request that reflects the amount withheld pending rescission (on
line 9 of the S.F. 132). In addition, any amount reserved
pursuant to section 515 will be reported on line 5 of the S.F.
132, as described in paragraph 6.c. of this Supplement.
Rescission reports and proposed rescission language will
not be required for section 2901 rescission proposals. These
materials will be prepared centrally by OMB, using data submitted
in response to this Supplement.
b. Rescission proposals involving both section 2901 and other
savings. In cases where section 2901 savings and othertamounts
are proposed for rescission in the same account, agencies will
submit:
information in the format of the Exhibit 1 on the-portion
of the proposed rescission involving section 2901 savings;
a revised rescission report and supplementary report that
reflects the impact of both section 2901 and other
savings, and proposed rescission language for the portion
of the rescission proposal not involving section 2901
savings; and
a reapportionment request that reflects the total amount
withheld pending rescission on line 9 of the S.F. 132, and
any amount reserved pursuant to section 515 on line 5 of
the S.F. 132.
In these cases, the portion of the rescission proposal in an
account associated with section 2901 will be included in the
special message on these proposals; the remaining portion of a
rescission proposal involving the same account will be reflected
in supplementary and revised reports in a second special message.
c. Other rescission proposals. For the special message on
other rescission proposals, agencies will prepare information in
the normal manner. Therefore, agencies will be required to
submit rescission reports, proposed rescission language, and
reapporti6nments for these proposed rescissions (see OMB Bulletin
No. 75-15).
8. Report to Conctress on section 2901 savings. If the savings
targets specified in law are not achieved, section 2901 specifies
that the report to the Congress provide an explanation of the
reasons why higher savings were not achieved.
To comply with these requirements, each agency is required to
submit a summary of section 2901 savings, in accordance with
instructions in Attachment C and in the format of Exhibit 2. Two

copies of a worksheet will be provided under separate cover, with
the first column completed. Agencies are required to complete
the remaining columns and provide a written justification
whenever the full amount of the total reduction targets assigned
to the agency by OMB (in Supplement 1 to OMB Bulletin No. 84-17)
is not equal to total section 2901 savings reported. (NOTE:
Section 515 withholdings will be counted as a part of total
savings.) The justification should explain briefly the specific
reasons why higher savings were not achievable. In addition to
other data provided to OMB, these materials will be used as the
basis for the report to the Congress.
9. Timing of submissions. Within three days after initial
passback of budget decisions on any rescission proposals,
including those with section 2901 savings, agencies will submit
information for the Budget Appendix and data base, as specified
in paragraph 6.
For section 2901 rescission proposals, agencies will also submit
reports (in the format of Exhibits 1 and 2) as required by
paragraphs 7 and 8.
Within three days after final decisions are made on any
rescission proposal, including those involving section 2901
savings, agencies will adjust affected entries in the BPS data
base for the 1985 rescission proposals to be reflected in the
Budget Appendix.
For section 2901 rescission proposals, agencies will also submit
revised Exhibits 1 and 2, as necessary.
Within ten days after final decisions, agencies will submit
reapportionment requests reflecting amounts withheld pending
action on rescission proposals and section 515 withholdings.
If an agency is also requesting a reapportionment of an account
on a deficiency basis for increased pay costs, the agency will
submit a reapportionment reflecting all actions. In these cases,
the reapportionment is due within ten days after final OMB
approval of proposed supplemental appropriations for 1985
increased pay costs or within ten days after final decisions on
proposed rescissions, whichever is later.
At this time, for rescission proposals that do not involve
section 2901 savings, agencies will submit rescission reports and
proposed rescission language. In addition, for rescission
proposals involving both section 2901 and other savings, agencies
will submit:
revised rescission reports and supplementary reports that
include the impact of the section 2901 rescission
proposals; and

EXECUTIVE OFFICE OF THE PRESIDENT
OFFICE OF MANAGEMENT AND BUDGET
WASHINGTON. D.C. 20503
November 8, 1984
BULLETIN NO. 84-17, Supplement No. 1
TO THE HEADS OF EXECUTIVE DEPARTMENTS AND ESTABLISHMENTS
SUBJECT: Section 2901 Reductions
1. Purpose. This Supplement provides the pro-rata reduction
targets necessary for agencies to achieve the savings targets
specified by section 2901 of the Deficit Reduction Act of 1984.
It also provides instructions for submission of information on
section 2901 savings for use in the 1986 budget review process.
2. Background. Section 2901 of the Deficit Reduction Act of
1984 requires Executive Branch agencies to achieve savings in
specific categories (e.g., travel, consulting services, etc.) and
requires the Director of OMB to transmit a report to the Congress
on the savings achieved. The report providing information on
these savings will be transmitted at about the same time as the
1986 Budget.
As an initial step in complying with section 2901, OMB Bulletin
No. 84-17, dated August 8, 1984, instructed agencies to provide
baseline data on the savings categories. Based on these data,
pro-rata reduction targets have been established by agency for
each of the categories. This Supplement informs agencies of the
assigned targets and instructs them to submit information to OMB
for use in the 1986 budget review process.
3. Covera9e. This Supplement applies to the Executive Branch
agencies listed in Attachment A.
4. Definitions. For the purposes of this Supplement, the
definitions in OMB Bulletin No. 84-17 apply.
5. Pro-rata reduction targets. To achieve the reduction targets
specified by section 2901 of the Deficit Reduction Act, each
agency covered by this Supplement is assigned the following
pro-rata reduction targets for 1985 from 1985 baseline estimates:
-- 24.1% for operation, maintenance, management, leasing,
acquisition, and disposal of motor vehicles;
-- 15.2% for travel of personnel (object class 21) and
transportation of things for personnel (a subset of object
class 22);

-- 37.4% for public affairs, public relations, and advertising
activities;
-- 25.9% for publishing, printing, reproduction, and
audiovisual activities; and
-- 31.3% for use of consultant services.
These targets have been used as the basis for allocating the
section 2901 reduction targets among agencies. The resulting
amounts provide the initial basis for deciding the section 2901
savings to be included in the 1986 Budget and to be proposed for
rescission in a special message that will be transmitted with the
1986 Budget.
6. Policy. Agencies listed in Attachment A are required to
reduce obligations for 1985 from the 1985 baseline estimates for
motor vehicles, travel, public affairs, publishing, and
consulting services categories, in accordance with section 2901
of the Deficit Reduction Act. The percentage reduction targets
required to comply with this section are specified in section 5,
above. Copies of the Exhibit to this Supplement with the
resulting amounts in them will be transmitted to each agency by
the OMB person responsible for examining the agency's budget.
Information required by this Supplement will be considered in the
1986 review process. Appeals related to reduction targets will
be considered with other 1986 budget appeals.
After passback of final budget decisions for amounts of section
2901 savings for all or any part of an agency, each agency may,
to avoid excessive paperwork, allocate reductions among its
affected accounts so that proposed rescissions total more than
$500,000 per account. Agencies will submit materials, by account
and category, identifying the amounts to be rescinded. These
materials, including rescission schedules (for the Budget
Appendix), data for the BPS data base, and apportionment forms,
will be used to prepare: (a) the 1986 Budget; (b) a special
message on section 2901 rescission proposals; and (c) the
required report to the Congress. A later supplement will provide
specific instructions on the preparation and submission of this
information.
7. Required actions. Two copies of data submission worksheets
for each agency listed in Attachment A will be provided under
separate cover, with the first three columns completed. A sample
worksheet is shown in the attached Exhibit. These worksheets
will show the effect of applying the assigned percentage
reductions to the agency 1985 baseline estimates that were
submitted in response to OMB Bulletin No. 84-17. Each agency is

required to indicate whether the assigned reduction targets are
feasible. If a department or agency believes that the full
amount of the reductions cannot be accomplished without having
seriously debilitating effects on the agency's ability to carry
out its basic programs, an adjustment may be requested.
Information on requests for adjustments, including a complete
explanation and detailed justification, must be provided in the
report.
The report should be submitted in accordance with the instruc-
tions in Attachment B and in the format of the attached Exhibit,
by c.o.b. Friday, November 16, 1984.
8. Information contact. Further information may be obtained from
the OMB person responsible for examining the agency's budget.
9. Sunset Review date. This Supplement expires as soon as the
required action is completed.

Instructions for Preparing Exhibit on
Section 2901 Reductions
Each agency listed in Attachment A will submit, by Friday,
November 16, 1984, an original and one copy of a report in the
format of the Exhibit. Agencies are required to report their
views on the effect of applying the assigned percentage
reductions to the 1985 baseline estimates. If an agency believes
that the full amount of the reduction will have seriously
debilitating effects on basic programs, an adjustment may be
requested. A complete explanation and detailed justification of
the request must be provided in the report.
Data for each category will be reported for the agency as a
whole. Supporting account level detail will be provided for the
November submission upon request by the OMB program division with
responsibility for reviewing the agency's budget.
After passback of final budget decisions, agencies will also be
required to submit account level detail, by category, on any
amounts proposed for rescission. A later supplement will provide
instructions on this requirement.
a. Data for columns 1, 2, and 3 will be included on the
worksheets provided under separate cover.
Column 1 - 1985 Base. Column 1 provides the 1985 base for
each category consistent with the 1985 baseline estimates
submitted in response to OMB Bulletin No. 84-17, dated August
8, 1984. (OMB Bulletin No. 84-17 required that a supple-
mentary report be submitted within 20 days following
enactment of 1985 appropriations in either a regular
appropriations bill or the first continuing resolution.
Since that deadline has passed, no further adjustments to
baseline estimates will be permitted.)
Pro-rata Reduction Targets
Column 2 - Percentage Reduction. Column 2 provides the
percentage reductions for each category, as specified in
section 5 of this Supplement.
Column 3 - Dollar Reduction. Column 3 provides the dollar
reductions for each category that result from multiplying the
1985 base (column 1) by the percentage reduction target
(column 2).

OFFICE OF MANAGEMENT AND BUDGET
WASHINGTON. D.C. 20503
August 8, 1984
BULLETIN NO. 84-17
TO THE HEADS OF EXECUTIVE DEPARTMENTS AND ESTABLISHMENTS
SUBJECT: Baseline Estimates for Cost Savings Report
1. Purpose. This Bulletin provides instructions for submission
of baseline data for 1984 and 1985 in certain management
improvement categories for a report on cost savings that is
required by section 2901 of the "Deficit Reduction Act of 1984."
(Copies of section 2901 and the report language are at
Attachments A and B.)
2. Background. Cost Savings Report by Administrative Action.
Section 2901 of the Deficit Reduction Act of 1984 requires
Executive Branch management improvements in the six areas listed
below. Within six months of enactment, the Director of OMB is to
submit a report to the Congress on the savings achieved. For
each of the six management improvement areas, the report is
required to describe baseline costs, savings estimates, methods
used to achieve savings, draft legislation (when necessary), and
if savings estimates are less than the amounts shown below, the
report must specify why the higher savings cannot be achieved.
The savings targets and the categories specified by the provision
are:
-- $750 million for travel of personnel and transportation of
things for personnel;
- ???
$1,000 million for the use of consultant services;
$100 million for public affairs, public relations, and
advertising activities;
$250 million for publishing, printing, reproduction, and
audiovisual activities;
-- $2,100 million for identification, recovery, and collection
of Federal overpayments, delinquencies, and indebtedness;
and
$160 million for the operation, maintenance, management,
leasing, acquisition, and disposal of motor vehicles.
The reductions are to be made in 1985 from a 1984 base. In most
instances, this will result in larger reductions from the 1985
baseline than from the 1984 baseline.

For debt collection, a $2.1 billion saving is already reflected
in the 1985 Budget. Therefore, only data for the other five
categories are required to be submitted in response to this
Bulletin. After the baseline data are submitted, agencies will
be instructed to make reductions in these areas and reflect them
in the 1986 Budget. A report providing information on the cost
savings will be transmitted to the Congress with the 1986 Budget.
3. Coverage. This Bulletin applies to all Executive Branch
departments and establishments.
4. Definitions. For the purposes of this Bulletin, the
definitions in Attachments C, D and E apply.
5. Policy. After the baseline data are established, reduction
targets will be established by OMB for each agency. Instructions
on the reductions required, appeals process, and application of
the savings will be issued later.
6. Required Actions. Each agency will submit a report to OMB on
1984 and 1985 estimated obligations for travel and transporta-
tion, consultant services, public affairs, publishing, and motor
vehicles. The report should be submitted, in accordance with
instructions in Attachments C, D and E and in the format of the
Exhibit, by Friday, August 24, 1984.
7. Information Contact. Further information may be obtained
from the OMB examiner responsible for handling the agency's
budget.
8. Sunset Review Date. This Bulletin expires as soon as action
is completed.

TITLE IX?MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS
Section 2901. Com Savings by Administrative Action
House amendment
The House amendment contains no provision relating to reduc-
tion of obligations for various types of administrative activities.
Senate amendment
Section 1609 of the Senate amendment requires that the total
amount which may be obligated for various administrative pur-
mete in FY 1985 be reduced by specified amounts below the total
appropriated for such purposes for FY 1984. These purposes and
amounts are:
Section 1603W?Certain Travel and Transportation ...... ....... 8750 million.
Section 1601M?Consultant Services 11 billion.
Section 1601K0--Public Affairs. Public Relations, Public Informa-
tion and Advertising $100
Section 1601geD?Publishing, Printing. Reproduction, and Audiovis-
ual Activities $250 million.
Section 1608(f)?Certain Motor Vehicle Operations $160 million.
Section 1603(e) requires OMB to "effect savings of $2,100,000,000
through enhanced identification and and collection of Fed-
eral overpayments, delinquencies, and indebtedness. . . most re-
cently considered to be uncollectible." This is the amount that the
President's FY 1985 budget estimated would be collected through
increased efforts.
The provisions of Section 1608 of the Senate amendment were de-
signed to reduce the costs of administrative activities by providing
that total FY 1985 obligations for those activities would be reduced
by certain amounts below comparable levels in FY 1984 aP
bons. All reductions Would be allocated by the Director of
Office of Management and Budget among the agencies, but, in
some instances, certain key functions, such as law enforcement and
emergency national defense activities, would be exempt from bear-
ing a share of the allocated reductions.
Conference agreement
The conferees agreed to the Senate provision with an amend-
ment.
The conferees agree that significant savings can be achieved in
these areas of Federal expenditures. However, the conferees are
concerned that there is insufficient data to implement the provi-
sion, that the amounts of the reductions may be inappropriate, and
that the language of the provision would probably not result in say-
ing to the government.
There are no firm estimates concerning the baseline costa to the
government of the categories of expenditures specified in the
amendment. The government accounts do not separately identify
the specific costs of administrative components such as travel and
transportation, consultant services, public affairs, public relations
and advertising, publishing, and motor vehicle operations. Without
a firm, agreed upon base from which to measure the costs of these
activities, it would be nearly impossible to determine the real say-
inp which might result from the provisions of section 1603 (a)
through (f)(1) of the Senate amendment.
While monies for travel and transportation are not separately
appropriated and obligated, statistics on these expenditures have
been developed. These statistics suggest that the size of the reduc-
tion required in this area by the Senate amendment could severely
hamper important government activities. Evidence supplied by
OMB in a letter to Chairman Roth suggests that the travel and
transportation activities not exempted in the Senate provision
would have to be reduced by about 26 percent to carry out the re-
quirements of the provision. OM:B went on to conclude that if other

P. 2 of Attachment B
important activities such as transportation of Commodity Credit
Corporation commodities, coal for TVA's power plants, stockpile
commodities, and travel for VA beneficiaries, FAA and other trans-
portation safety staff, audit gaff, diplomatic officials and staff, and
Department of Defense staff, are also excluded from the reduction,
the reduction required for remaining activities would be about two-
thirds.
Furthermore, the conferees agree with OMB that the provision
would not result in savings to the government. This is because the
language does not reduce appropriated funds, but rather limits ex-
pendittirertlir pitqfiretv?ilibi such?ii?p-iilolic affairs of reproduc-
tiorf expenses. According to OMB, an "savings" resulting from re-
ductions in expenditures for those administrative activities, would
by law have to be made available for other purposes. Otherwise,
the funds would be withheld from obligation contrary to the provi-
sions of the Impoundment Control Act.
To solve these problems, the conferees agreed on an amendment
that would require the development by OM(B of baseline data, a de-
termination of possible savings, and a plan to achieve these say-
Infect
'on 2901(a) expresses the sense of Congress that costs for ad-
ministrative activities can be reduced and that better management
of such activities must remain a high priority of the Congress and
the executive branch.
Subsection (b) of section 2901 includes provisions designed to pro-
vide Congress and the public with more substantial and clearly de-
fined information on the baseline costs for administrative activi-
ties. This subsection requires the Director of the Office of
Manage-
ment and Budget to report to Congress baseline estimates e
costs for each of the specified administrative activities in FY 1984.
In addition, OMB would be required to explain what savings can
reasonably be expected in these areas in FY 1985 through manage
ment improvements and how those savings would be achieved.
OMB is also directed to submit draft legislation when necessary to
achieve savings in the costs 'of these administrative activities.
Subsection (c) requires that in the event OMB estimates of possi-
ble savings are less than that required in the Senate provision,
then the report to Congress must include an explanation of why
the higher figure is not achievable.
As agreed to by the conferees, section 2901(aX1XC) no longer
refers to "public information activities" as one of the areas in
which reductions are to be identified. Conferees concluded that re-
ductions are appropriate in the areas of public relations and adver-
tising by agencies. However, they agreed that providing informa-
tion on the operations of government generally, or pursuant to the
Freedom of Information Act specifically, should not be affected by
this section.

Bulletin No. 84-17
Instructions for Preparing Baseline
Estimates for Management Improvement Categories
Each agency will submit, by Friday, August 24, 1984, an original
and one copy of a report in the format illustrated by the Exhibit
showing total obligations for the agency for 1984 and 1985 for
the management improvement categories listed below. Also, submit
an attachment presenting detailed backup for each line. The
detail should present obligations by bureau and account (or other
subdivisions required by the OMB program division with
responsibility for reviewing the agency's budget). The
categories are intended to be mutually exclusive; obligations for
the designated activities should be included in only one category
to avoid double counting.
The obligations data for 1984 and 1985 will be consistent with
enacted appropriations and other budgetary resources available as
oft the date of this bulletin. If 1985 appropriations have not

of their entire agenda to OMB.
RISC will ensure that all agency agendas are compiled and
forwarded as a complete group to the Office of the Federal
Register, which will have the Government Printing Office print
them in a single day's issue of the Federal Register. All
agencies will be able to obtain reprint copies of their
individual agendas.

OFFICE OF MANAGEMENT AND BUDGET
WASHINGTON. D.C. 20503
July 12, 1984
Bulletin No. 84-15, Supplement No. 1
TO THE HEADS OF EXECUTIVE DEPARTMENTS AND ESTABLISHMENTS
SUBJECT: Additional information required for the Mid-Session
Review of the 1985 Budget
1. Purpose and background. This supplement provides
instructions for the submission of information needed to include
the effects of the Deficit Reduction Act of 1984 (hereafter
referred to as the "Act") in the Mid-Session Review of the 1985
Budget. The Act, which was recently passed by the Congress,
contains many provisions that affect spending and revenues. The
required information is limited to revisions that result from the
Act and from delays in the adoption of spending reduction and
other legislative proposals.
2. Additional basis for the revised estimates. In addition to
the guidance provided in OMB Bulletin No. 84-15:
Both Presidential policy and current services estimates
of budget authority, outlays, and receipts will be
revised, as appropriate, to reflect the effects of
changes to entitlement programs, e.g., Medicare,
Medicaid, SSI, etc., resulting from the Act;
Presidential policy proposals requiring changes in
substantive law or in authorizations will be as follows:
o Spending reduction proposals that were not adopted in
the Act will be retained but will assume a one-year
delay in the effective date;
o New program initiatives (e.g., Central America
Democracy, Peace, and Development Initiative, Compact
of Free Association) will be retained with no change
in assumed effective dates of October 1 or later;
earlier assumed effective dates will be changed to
October 1, 1984 unless there is a high probability of
earlier enactment;
Presidential policy and current services estimates will
be revised to reflect completed Congressional action on
the 1984 Urgent Supplemental Appropriations Act (P.L.
98-332);

Presidential policy -- but not current services --
estimates will be revised to reflect completed
Congressional action on three 1985 appropriations bills.
These bills are: HUD-Independent Agencies, Energy and
Water Development, and Legislative Branch; and
Both Presidential policy and current services estimates
also will he revised, as appropriate, to reflect the
effects of Sections 2651-2653 of the Act (copies
attached). These sections provide for:
o Section 2651 (Attachment A) - Income and eligibility
verification under which the Secretary of the Treasury
is required to disclose information on income tax
withholding on unearned income upon request of
specified Federal, State, and local agencies in order
to determine eligibility for certain assistance
programs.
o Section 2652 (Attachment B) - Expediting the deposit
in the Treasury of payments to executive agencies.
Generally, this provision reduces from 30 days to
three the statutory period for timely deposit of
funds.
o Section 2653 (Attachment C) - Increasing the
collection of non-tax debts owed to the Federal
Government by providing for any Internal Revenue
Service refund payable during calendar years 1986 and
1987 to be reduced by the amount of past-due legally
enforceable debt owed by a named person.
In the Mid-Session Review, these data related to
Section 2653 will not be reflected in estimates of
agency totals. An undistributed government-wide
adjustment will be made based on an aggregation of
individual agency estimates to be reported as non-add
items on the analysis of change sheets. Accordingly,
reasonable estimates of such collections will suffice.
Estimates will be developed in the manner shown on
Exhibit 2A continued.
Administration tax proposals not adopted in the Act
should be retained. An effective date of January 1, 1985
should be assumed for all proposals that had earlier
effective dates.

3. Material required.
a. Basic data. Estimates of budget authority, outlays,
receipts, and Federal credit data submitted under OMB Bulletin
No. 84-15 will be revised to reflect the effects of the Act, in
the manner prescribed by Section 3 of the Bulletin.
b. Analysis of change submissions. Agencies with accounts
affected by the Act will submit two copies of tables in the form
of the revised Exhibit 2 to explain changes in program estimates
for budget authority, outlays, and receipts from those included
in the April Update for Presidential policy estimates and from
the February Budget for current services estimates. These
analyses will be submitted for any change resulting from the
effects of the Act as well as for other changes of $50 million or
more. In those cases where aggregations are submitted, all
changes resulting from the Act must be identified at the account
level. The effects of the tax refund offset for non-tax debt
provision (Section 2653 of the Act) will be derived as shown on
Exhibit 2A continued and displayed in the form of Exhibit 2A.
(See section 2 of this supplement.)
4. Timing. Agencies will submit the required data and material
to OMB no later than Wednesday, July 18, 1984.
5. Inquiries. Inquiries should be directed to the Office of
Management and Budget representative responsible for reviewing
the agency's budget estimates.

EXECUTIVE OFFICE OF THE PRESIDENT
OFFICE OF MANAGEMENT AND BUDGET
WASHINGTON. O.C. 20503
?June 20, 1984
Bulletin No. 84- 15
TO THE HEADS OF DEPARTMENTS AND ESTABLISHMENTS
SUBJECT: Information required for the Mid-Session Review of the
198 5 Budget
1. Pucpose. This Bulletin provides instructions for the
preparation and submission of revised estimates of budget
authority, outlays, and receipts (on both a current services and
Presidential policy basis); and revised estimates of Federal
credit data for 198 4 through 1989. Instructions are also
included for the development and submission of estimates of the
spendout during 1986-89 of balances of budget authority for
controllable programs available at the end of 1985. Th is
information will be used to prepare the Mid-Session Review of the
1985 Budget.
/Th 2. Background. The Mid-Session Review, required under section
? 601 of the Congressional Budget Act of 1974, will present the
current status of the President's Budget, including estimates for
off-budget Federal entities. Current services estimates will
also be provided. The information published in the Review,
together with supporting data, will provide the Congress with
data needed to evaluate the President's budget, as revised, and
to assist the Congress with its budget scorekeeping
responsibilities.
/Th
3. Materials Required.
a. Revised estimates of budget authority, outlays, receipts,
and Federal creditdata. lyiErlirri be entered as changes to the
iiiiagTFTFFIFinTETENili-tYllem (BPS) computer file, which currently
contains 1984-1989 supplementary source data collected for the
April update of the 1985 Budget for Presidential policy estimates
of budget authority and outlays (SSD-A/D and B), Federal credit
data (SSD-G/11), and analyses of cost-of-living adjustments and
administrative expenses for certain trust funds (SSD-V/W). The
BPS data file also contains 1984-1989 current services estimates
(SSD-S/T) from the February Budget. This data file, along with
the receipt account data file (sections R/L, Presidential policy;
sections KIM, current services) will be available for changes.
No changes should be made to 1983 data contained in the data
files.

Agencies linked to the OMB/agency computer network will order
copies of the appropriations account data (AAD) and receipt
account data (RAD) computer listings, as needed, by means of
remote job entry. For those agencies not linked to the
OMB/agency computer network, copies of the computer listings will
be provided by the OMB representative responsible for reviewing
the agency's budget estimates. Agencies will revise estimates in
accordance with the guidelines contained in section 4 of this
Bulletin. Agencies furnishing automated budget data to OMB via
computer terminals will use this method to transmit revised
estimates. (These agencies should notify OMB as soon as possible
of transmittal code changes and requests for new accounts that
need to be added to the Master Account and Receipt Account Title
Files.) All other agencies will mark up and return two copies of
the computer listings. (Changes will be made by drawing a single
line through any amount to be changed and entering the revised
amount above it.) Agencies should follow the guidelines shown in
Attachment A in entering and processing revised data for the
computer file.
b. Estimated spendout during 1986-1989 of unexpended
balances of budget authority tor controllable programs at the end
37-11-637 OMB will provide four (4) copies of a computer IlitTR4
aE the accountlevel containing estimates of unexpended balances
of budget authority for controllable programs, as reflected in
the 1985 January Budget, to agencies with balances shown at the
end of 1985 in excess of $100 million. These agencies will
revise the amounts for 1985, as appropriate; estimate the
spendout of these balances in future years, in accordance with
the instructions in Attachment B; and submit two copies of this
information in the format of Exhibit 1.
c. Analysis of change. Agencies will submit two (2) copies
of tables in the T3rm of 2 to explain major changes ($50
million or more) in program estimates for budget authority,
outlays, and offsetting receipts. Minor changes may be combined
in an "Other changes category. In general, the changes will be
addressed at the account level. However, when account detail
complicates the explanation unnecessarily, changes may be
explained as they relate to a major program area (e.g.,
Unemployment compensation, Civil service retirement, Railroad
retirement, Social Security, and Medicare). A memorandum entry
will be included for comparable data for the period 1984-1989 for
reestimates of governmental receipts. Agencies also will submit
two (2) copies of tables in the form of Exhibits 3 and 4 for
changes in direct loan obligations or guaranteed loan
commitments, respectively. For purposes of reporting, a major
change is defined as being one in excess of $50 million in any
one year. These tables will provide a bridge from the April
update estimates to the current estimates for 1984-1989, except
that current services estimates will be reflected as a bridge
between the February budget and the current estimates.

Tables submitted may be released to Congressional staff to
provide supporting explanations for changes identified in the
Mid-Session Review.
d. Revised outlay plans. Under OMB Circular No. A-112,
agencies are require( to submit to OMB, by July 1, revised
forecasts of 1984 spending (reflecting actuals for October
through May and projections for June through September) and
estimates of first quarter 1985 spending. The revised outlay
plans should be consistent with the Mid-Session Review estimates
and are to be submitted as soon as an agency's 1984 and 1985
outlay estimates for the Mid-Session Review have become final,
whether that occurs shortly before or shortly after July 1.
Timely development of these plans is essential for both OMB's and
Treasury's outlay monitoring functions.
4. Basis for the revised Presidential policy estimates. Amounts
for -17817-11719 ?Myr be revised to reflect changes due to revised
economic assumptions, technical reestimates, publicly announced
Presidential decisions, completed Congressional action, and
Congressional inaction. General guidance on the development of
the multi-year planning estimates is provided in section 26.2 of
OMB Circular No. A-11.
a. Changes due to revised economic assumptions. OMB will
provide, as soon as possible, the revised economic assumptions
for the Mid-Session Review. The planned release date is Monday,
June 25. Estimates for programs sensitive to these assumptions
should be revised accordingly.
b. Technical reestimates. Agencies should adjust the
estimates to reflect changes in spending trends, demographic
data, or other technical factors that may generate reestimates.
Particular emphasis should be placed on a thorough review of 1984
outlay estimates. Actual experience to date strongly suggests
that, in the aggregate, the 1984 outlay estimates published in
the April update are too high by a significant amount. An
intensive review of these outlay estimates must be made to reduce
all 1984 outlay estimates that show any sign of being excessive.
The effect of reestimates of 1984 outlays on the 1985-1989
estimates should also be taken into account.
c. Publicly announced Presidential decisions or initiatives.
Presidential policy estimates should be revis3 to reflect
changes since the April update due to:
budget amendments and supplementals transmitted to the
Congress or approved and pending in OMB (the final
compilation of estimates will be adjusted by OMB to
include only those items that have been approved by the
President);

deferral or rescission proposals transmitted to the
Congress;
releases by the Executive Branch of amounts shown as
reserved under the Impoundment Control Act in the April
update; and
legislative proposals transmitted, approved, or publicly
supported by the president.
d. Congressional action or inaction. Presidential policy
estimates should be revised to reflect the effects of legislation
enacted prior to the July 4 Congressional recess. This includes:
enacted substantive legislation ( i . e . , entitlement and
other legislation that has a direct impact on the
planning base) ;
enacted appropriations ( including re sc is s ions) ;
enacted legislation that changes deferrals proposed by
the President; and
delays in action on Administration-sponsored legislation
(where earlier Congressional action had been assumed in
the April update est imate s) . In preparing revised
estimates for legislative proposals not yet enacted by
the Congress, agencies should assume an effective date of
October 1, 1984, where an earlier date had been assumed
previously, unless there is a high probability of earlier
enactment.
Only those changes that follow directly from Congressional action
or inaction should be included. Enactment of discretionary
authorizations without subsequent completed appropriations action
should not be reflected in the revised planning base. Quest ions
concerning the status of Congressional action and/or proper
incorporation of completed Congressional action in the revised
estimates should be addressed to the OMB representative
responsible for reviewing the agency ' s estimates.
5. Bas is for the revised current services estimates.
Current services esElilateir-r-budg et authority, outlays, and
receipts for 1984-89 will be revised to reflect:
substantive legislation enacted since the transmittal of
the budget and before the July 4 Congressional recess.
Enacted fiscal year 1985 appropriations should not be
reflected in the current services estimates at thii-Time;

Osignificant technical reestimates; and
reestimates due to revised economic assumptions. These
reestimates should be made only for entitlement and other
programs directly affected by economic variables.
Adjustments should not be made to discretionary programs
for revised inflation assumptions.
Basic guidance or,1 the development of current services estimates
is provided in section 27 of OMB Circular No. A-11.
6. Timing. Agencies will submit each of the required data and
supporting materials to OMB no later than June 29, 1984 for those
agencies not dffected by economic assumptions, and July 5, 1984
for those programs affected by economic assumptions.
7. Inquiries. Inquiries should be directed to the OMB
representative responsible for reviewing the agency's budget
estimates.

GUIDELINES FOR ENTERING/PROCESSING
? CHANGES TO THE COMPUTER
DATA BASE
Agencies will follow these guidelines for entering/processing
revised data for computer files.
1. Amounts are to be reported in thousands of dollars.
2. Changes to the proposed legislation (PL) column for receipt
data and to the 11-digit identification code for supplementary
source data should be made as follows (see OMB Circular No. A-11,
sections 21.3 and 28.2):
All enacted supplementals should be merged with the
parent account. The supplemental account should then be
deleted.
The effect of completed Congressional action on
rescission proposals (transmittal code 5), should be
reflected in the parent account and the rescission
account should be deleted. Pending rescission proposals
should continue to be treated as separate accounts.
Amendments transmitted since the April update will be
reflected in the data files by adjusting the 1985 budget
authority request or receipt estimate appropriately and
adjusting the outlays in the years affected, to reflect
the effect of the amendment.
Enacted legislation will be reflected by adjusting 1984
and/or 1985 budget authority and outlay requests to
reflect the effect of the enacted legislation.
To permit accurate reporting and summarizing of
legislative proposals, the transmittal status for amounts
in the budget that were proposed for later transmittal
under proposed legislation (transmittal code 2 on the
supplementary source data file and code "L" (legislation)
under the "PL" (proposed legislation) column of the
receipt data file) should be reviewed. If the
authorizing legislation has been transmitted (but not the
appropriation request), the transmittal code 2 should be

retained. If . the authorizing legislation has been
enacted but the appropriation request has not been
transmitted to the Congress, the affected account should
be changed to a code 3 (proposed for later transmittal
under existing legislation). If the authorization has
been enacted and the appropriation request transmitted to
the Congress;?The transmittal code should be changed to
"Supplemental under existing legislation" (transmittal
code 1) in the supplementary source data file. For the
receipt data file, if the authorizing legislation has
been enacted, the "L" code should be deleted and the
amounts adjusted, if necessary, to reflect Congressional
action.
3. Pay supplementals and their associated amounts, if enacted,
should be merged into the "Appropriation" and "Outlays" entries
(lines 40.00 or 43.00 and 90.00 of the A section of the
supplementary source data.
4. Section B of the supplementary source data should be revised
when necessary to agree with section A.
5. For appropriation or fund accounts not currently reflected in
the data files, and for supplementals and pending rescission
proposals transmitted since the April update of the 1985 Budget,
and still pending before the Congress prior to the update of the
1985 Budget, agencies will contact their OMB representatives to
establish these accounts on the data files. For new receipt
accounts, the new accounts and related data should be entered
directly onto the computer listings.

Bulletin No. 84-15
INSTRUCTIONS FOR REPORTING
ESTIMATED SPENDOUT OF BALANCES OF CONTROLLABLE PROGRAMS
1. Purpose. This attachment provides instructions for preparing
the report on estimated spendout of 1985 balances of controllable
programs.
2. Coverage. An analysis sheet in the format of Exhibit 1 will
be prepared by agencies that will have unexpended balances (the
sum of obligated and unobligated balances) at the end of 1985 in
excess of $100 million. A one line agency total for such
balances will be entered on the analysis sheet, with additional
detail required for:
a. bureaus with account balances at the end of 1985 of more
than $1 billion;
b. appropriation accounts with 1985 year-end balances of
more than $100 million; and
c. accounts with balances of stand-by and back-up authority;
i.e., authority that would not be used except to meet conditions
or circumstances that may not occur (e.g., for bank deposit
insurance to protect depositors in the event of a bank failure).
When the detail required by 2a-c does not add to the agency
total, an "all other" line will be provided for the remainder.
3. Basis for the estimates. The report will relate to
"coni7WITabriw programs only (i.e., those shown in the "Balances
and Outlays from Balances" computer listing provided by OMB).
Programs classified as uncontrollable are specifically excluded
from this report and will not be included in the computer listing
to be provided by OMB.
For the purpose of this report, the term "spendout" means gross
disbursements. It is not synonymous with the term "outlays,"
which means checks issued, interest accrued on the public debt,
or other payments net of receipts and reimbursements. It is
essential that the spendout report disregard receipts aria
reimbursements and record gross disbursements against unexpended
balances. Thig- distinction is particularly importantfor
figlaTririg funds or accounts where reimbursements represent a
major aspect of the financial program.

In estimating the amount of spendout of 1985 balances in each of
the fiscal years 1986-1989, the following assumptions should be
used:
a. Obligated
generally will be
accounts having
disbursement; e.g.
balances carried forward at the end of 1985
spent out in 1986. Important exceptions are
a long time lag between obligation and
, construction and major procurement programs.
b. Unobligated balances will be obligated before new
authority, and generally will be spent out within a year after
the obligation is incurred, except as noted in paragraph 3a
above. Estimates of the spendout of these balances can usually
be based on assumptions concerning obligation levels in 1986 and
each year thereafter.
4. Required information. Affected agencies will furnish
information based on data in the 1985 Budget on estimates of
unexpended balances (lines 24 and 74 on the program and financing
schedule) and spendout of balances (lines 3130, 3140, 3230, and
3240 on the Supplementary Source Data, section B) for 1983, 1984,
and 1985. (See sections 25 and 32 of OMB Circular No. A-11.)
Specific instructions for completing the report in the format of
Exhibit 1 are set forth below:
Description (col. 1).--This column should include the account
title, as well as otherapplicable entries required by paragraph
2, above. Additional entries may be used for clarity.
February Budget estimates (col. 2).--This column should
contain the applicable amount provided in the data base.
Current estimate (col. 3).--The latest estimate of 1985
balances is equal to the February budget estimate modified to
reflect subsequent changes due to Congressional action (or
inaction), reestimates, and Presidential initiatives.
These amounts must be consistent with the effects of any 1984 or
1985 changes reported elsewhere for the Mid-Session Review.
Assuming no changes in estimates of expiring authority and
disregarding receipts and reimbursements, changes in estimates of
budget authority and outlays will have a direct effect on the
estimate of the unexpended balance (i.e., an increase in budget
authority without a corresponding increase in outlays will result
in an equal increase in unexpended balances, while an increase in
outlays without a corresponding increase in budget authority will
result in an equal decrease in unexpended balances). The amount
in this column must equal the sum of the amounts in columns 4-9.

EXECUTIVE OFFICE OF THE PRESIDENT
OFFICE OF MANAGEMENT AND BUDGET
WASHINGTON. D.C. 20503
December 19, 1984
BULLETIN NO. 84-14, Supplement No. 2
TO THE HEADS OF EXECUTIVE DEPARTMENTS AND ESTABLISHMENTS
SUBJECT: FY 1986 Management Reviews--Preparation of Agency
Management Improvement Plans
1. Purpose. This supplement to Bulletin 84-14 provides
instructions for the preparation, submission, and execution of
Management Improvement Plans (MIPs) by participating Federal
departments and agencies (see Attachment B).
2. General. A Management Improvement Plan represents a results-
oriented approach to the development and implementation of A
department's or agency's management improvement program. In
effect, the MIP is a contract between OMB and the department or
agency to complete selected management improvement initiatives
within a given period of time. Each department or agency head
will be expected to prepare a Management Improvement Plan that
includes:
an objective for each initiative identified and approved
by OMB;
milestones for implementing each initiative;
performance measures to assess the agency's effective-
ness in reaching an objective; and
a distribution, by appropriation or receipt account, of
the 1985-1990 budget savings identified by OMB.
3. Definitions. The following definitions will be used in
formulating management improvement plans:
(a) An initiative is a management improvement action that
provides the opportunity to streamline, simplify, or
improve the delivery of Federal Government services or
the use of resources.
(b) An objective is a concise statement of the results that
the department or agency plans to achieve through the
implementation of a management improvement initiative.
(c) Milestones are descriptions, including timing, of the
major actions to be taken by the department or agency to
ensure the achievement of an objective.

(d) Current services is the current services baseline for
1985 - 1990. For FTEs, it is the department's or
agency's most current employment ceiling for 1985 and
1986 approved by OMB.
(e) Implementation resources are the resources (budget
authority, outlays, FTE) that would be needed to develop
and implement a specific management improvement
initiative.
(f)
Savings are reductions from the current services level
that will result from the implementation of a management
improvement initiative. Savings also include reductions
from the department's or agency's most current
mhployment ceiling approved by OMB, as well as increases
to revenue or offsetting receipts due to the management
initiative. Savings are net of required implementation
resources.
(g) Performance measures are quantitative or qualitative
indices used to assess a department's or agency's
effectiveness in reaching a management improvement
objective.
4. Distribution of Savincs. Agency passbacks for the 1986
budget will identify savings, by year, for each management
initiative. Agencies will be required to reflect the savings in
appropriate schedules as part of the preparation of budget print
materials and related information required by OMB Circular No. A-
ll. Agencies also will be required to submit summary information
on the distribution of management savings by account. Directions
and formats will be provided by OMB at the time of passback.
This information on the distribution of savings by account will
be updated by the agencies at the completion of the budget
process and will be included in their Management Improvement
Plans submitted to OMB.
5. Management Improvement Plans. Each department and agency
will prepare a Management Improvement Plan in the format shown in
Attachment A. Initiatives to be included will be identified in
agency passbacks or subsequent communication from OMB. Each
agency also will be notified of the due date for its Management
Improvement Plan. Completed Management Improvement Plans should
be submitted to:

6. Baportint and Monitoring. All participating departments and
agencies will report on the status of initiatives every two
months starting March 1985 and, if necessary, quarterly meetings
will be held between the agencies and OMB to ensure that all
initiatives are being implemented according to the approved
MIP. Any changes to a MIP will require prior approval by OMB.
7. Inquiries. Any questions regarding this supplement should be
directed to your management representative in the OMB Planning
and Communications Division (see list in Attachment B).

BULLETIN M. 84-14, SUPPLEMENT IND. 1
TO THE HEADS OF EXECUTIVE DEPARTMENTS AND ESTABLISHMENTS
SUBJECT: Agency FY 1986 Management Review Options Analyses
1. Purpose. This supplement to Bulletin 84-14 provides ad-
ditional instructions regarding the preparation for and conduct
of the FY 1986 Management Reviews. It prescribes the format and
requirements for agency-specific options analyses to be prepared
by the participating departments and agencies (as listed in
attachment A of Bulletin 84-14), indicates how the timetable will
be set for submitting results of the options analyses to OMB, and
identifies and describes the Government-wide (multi-agency)
administrative support activities that will be analyzed by OMB.
(Bulletin 84-14 transmitted a four-part data call, the responses
to which will be used by OMB in its analysis of administrative
support activities.)
2. Background. As noted in Bulletin 84-14, two types of anal-
yses will be performed during the FY 1986 Management Reviews.
amB will analyze Government-wide administrative support activi-
ties. Departments and agencies will develop options analyses of
management activities that specifically relate to a department or
agency. As an initial step in preparing for both these analyses,
participating departments and agencies, the Cabinet Council on
Management and Administration, the President's Council on
Integrity and Efficiency, the Office of Federal Procurement
Policy (OFPP), the Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs
(OIRA), and other OMB staff were asked to identify both program
delivery and administrative support activities in which manage-
ment improvements could be made. The suggestions that were
received are being reviewed by OMB for the purpose of selecting
those activities that will be the subject of analysis by either
OMB or the departments and agencies. The agenda for the FY 1986
Management Reviews will be derived, in part, from the issues and
recommended management improvement actions that result from these
analyses.
3. Definitions. The following definitions apply to the man-
agement review process.
(a) Government-wide Areas of Analysis cover operations or
functions that are common to several or all of the depart-
ments and agencies, i.e., multi-agency, and generally
encompass administrative support activities. Analyses of
these activities result in issues being identified, with
the recommended resolution of an issue in the form of a

2
proposed management improvement action, when approved,
becoming an initiative.
(b) Agency-specific Analyses (options analyses) present alter-
native means for addressing the concern, problem, or
shortcoming associated with the activities that are being
analyzed and for achieving the management improvements
that are sought. These analyses cover potential manage-
ment improvement opportunities in program delivery or ad-
ministrative support activities but apply only to a
particular agency. The issues resulting from these anal-
yses, and their recommended resolution in the form of pro-
posed management improvement actions, when approved,
become initiatives.
(c) Program Delivery Activities relate to efforts associated
with the direct mission of a department or agency, such as
providing services, supplying benefits, or making grants
or loans. When analyzing the management aspects of these
activities, departments and agencies will address only the
non-policy aspects of program delivery.
(d) Administrative Support Activities relate to administrative
operations, such as payroll and personnel systems, proper-
ty management, procurement policies and procedures,
library services, and mail.
(e) An Initiative is a management improvement action that has
been agreed upon by the department or agency and approved
by OMB. Initiatives provide the opportunity to stream-
line, simplify, or improve the delivery of Federal Govern-
ment services or the use of resources.
4. Government-wide Areas of Analysis. OMB will undertake analy-
ses of Government-wide (multi-agency) administrative support ac-
tivities, including the following six areas:
(a) Financial Management. The main financial management focus
will be on departmental and agency credit management prac-
tices as related to (1) credit management policies, in-
cluding those being considered as part of a revised Cir-
cular No. A-70; (2) the Debt Collection Act of 1982;
and, (3) agency debt collection plans approved by OMB last
year.
(b) Administrative Support Systems (including accounting,
payroll/personnel, and property management systems). OMB
will review department and agency plans for the develop-
ment of administrative systems and develop proposals for
the consolidation of systems within departments or agen-
cies, cross servicing between departments or agencies, or
for interdepartmental or interagency development of
generic systems, as appropriate.

Declassified in Part - Sanitized Copy Approved for Release 2013/08/01 : CIA-RDP06M00944R000200160002-7
(c) Administrative Staffing and Organizational Structures.
OMB will focus on staffing and resource levels for the
provision of common administrative functions, and the or-
ganizational arrangements for such functions. The objec-
tive will be to consolidate support functions within or
across bureaus or offices, thus eliminating widely scat-
tered small administrative centers and reducing costs
through economies of scale.
(d) Payment Integrity. This effort will identify program-
specific approaches for improving the accuracy of feder-
ally funded payments, based on proven techniques.
(e) Federal Information Technology. This analysis will be
based on agency responses to OMB Bulletin No. 84-9, "In-
formation Technology Planning", as well as responses to
OMB Bulletin No. 84-14. The analysis will highlight five
areas: end user computing, software management, telecom-
munications, electronic filing, and information resources
management. A concurrent effort, as outlined in Bulletin
No. 84-9, will be studying Federal information technology
planning. In addition to contributing to specific manage-
ment improvement actions, results of the information tech-
nology analysis will also serve as a basis for development
of Federal information resources management policy and the
revision of four OMB Circulars announced last September.
(0 A-76 Productivity Enhancement. The emphases will be: (1)
selecting the government operated commercial activities to
be cost studied; (2) instituting a performance-based man-
agement system within the Federal Government; (3) estab-
lishing performance standards for governmental commercial
activities; (4) providing management with a systematic
formal surveillance system for monitoring performance
standards; (5) conducting comprehensive management ef-
ficiency studies of government operations; and, (6) com-
paring competing government operations with the private
sector to select the most cost effective operation.
The analyses of activities in these six areas will result in
management improvement actions being proposed by OMB for specific
departments or agencies. However, not every department or agency
would necessarily have a management improvement action proposed
for each of the six areas. The results of the analyses as they
pertain to a particular department or agency will be communicated
directly as OMB's analysis is completed, and will be reflected in
the agenda for the management review meetings.
5. Analyses to be Prepared by Departments and Agencies. OMB will
advise each department or agency by separate letter of the par-
ticular agency-specific management-related activities that are to
be subject to a departmentally or agency prepared options analy-
sis. (In some instances, OMB will identify this analysis by
framing it in the form of an issue.) The letter may also include
additional instructions for a particular analysis.

Each options analysis will include an estimate of expected
costs and savings for each option that is set forth. A suggested
format and general instructions for preparing the options
analyses are provided in the attachment to this supplement. For
some issues, OMB will recognize the need for and approve
appropriate deviations from the suggested format.
The following guidance on pricing will be used by departments
and agencies when preparing an options analysis.
Effects on Resources. Not all management improvement initia-
tives will produce benefits that are easily measurable in dol-
lar and FTE savings. Some will produce intangible, but none-
theless real, benefits that derive from better management,
more effective delivery of services, and improved planning and
performance measurement systems. The classification of these
achievements will vary, depending largely upon the time at
which they are measured. For purposes of the analyses reques-
ted by this supplement, potential budget savings will be mea-
sured as reductions from the level of current services that
would occur in the absence of the specific management initia-
tive. The concept of current services is explained in OMB
Circular No. A-11, Section 27.
Estimates of "cost avoidance" will not be included. Good man-
agement practices must constantly be applied to hold down un-
necessary expenses if the level of efficiency assumed in the
current services baseline and in the budget is to be achieved.
Achievements from these practices, such as audits that encour-
age the efficient use of funds, result in cost avoidance, not
budget savings. They are assumed in both current services
projections and the President's budget savings.
The department or agency will submit three copies of each
options analysis to the Deputy Associate Director for Planning
and Communications Management, Office of Management and Budget,
Room 10208, New Executive Office Building, 726 Jackson Place N.W,
Washington, D.C. 20503.
6. Management Review Meetings. OMB will schedule management
review meetings this summer to discuss the results of both the
OMB and the department and agency analyses.
7. Timing. A timetable for completing the options analyses will
be specified in the letter to the department or agency which
identifies the activities (or issues) that are to be subject to

EXECUTIVE OFFICE OF THE PRESIDENT
OFFICE OF MANAGEMENT AND BUDGET
WASHINGTON, DC 20503
June 18, 1984
BULLETIN NO. 84-14
TO THE HEADS OF EXECUTIVE DEPARTMENTS AND ESTABLISHMENTS
SUBJECT: Data Call for FY 1986 Management Reviews
1. Purpose.. This bulletin transmits a four-part data call to
the departments and agencies listed in Attachment A. OMB staff
will analyze department and agency responses to the questions
contained in the data call in conjunction with the FY 1986
Management Reviews. This data call may be supplemented in the
future by further requests for information.
2. Background. Two types of analysis will be performed during
the FY 1986 Management Reviews. OMB will undertake the
government-wide (multi-agency) analyses of administrative-support
activities. A department or agency will prepare options analyses
(7) of those administrative-support and program delivery activities
that specifically relate only to the department or agency. The
analytical findings of both efforts will form much of the agenda
for the management review meetings to be held between OMB and the
departments and agencies. These meetings will subsequently
result in OMB guidance on the proposed management improvement
initiatives that a department or agency will append in a
management improvement plan to its FY 1986 budget request. The
information provided by the departments and agencies responding
to this data call will aid OMB staff in their analysis of these
administrative-support activities.
Departments and agencies should expect to receive two additional
bulletins covering the conduct of the FY 1986 Management
Reviews. One of these bulletins will address the format and
content of the analyses that will be prepared by the departments
and agencies. The other bulletin will cover the requirements for
a department's or agency's management improvement plan.
3. Materials required. The four-part data call is transmitted
as Attachment B to this bulletin. All departments and agencies
listed in Attachment A will submit responses for the first three
parts of the data call which are respectively titled:
"Organization, Management, and Staffing of Selected
Administrative Support Functions," "Information Technology," and
"Circular A-76." All departments and agencies listed in
Attachment A other than the United States Information Agency and

the Agency for International Development will submit responses to
three series of questions in the fourth part of the data call
titled "Payment Integrity Project." The Departments of
Agriculture, Education, Health and Human Services, Housing and
Urban Development, Labor, as well as the Small Business
Administration, and the Veterans Administration will submit
responses to those questions in the fourth part of the data call
that are specifically directed to the department or agency. All
agency responses must be submitted by COB July 13, 1984 to Mr.
John Merck, Acting Deputy Associate Director for Planning and
Communications Management, Room 10208, New Executive Office
Building, Washington, D.C. 20503.
4. Inquiries. Inquiries on the data call should be directed
respectively to the following individuals: For part 1, MY. Blair

ORGANIZATION, MANAGEMENT AND STAFFING OF SELECTED
ADMINISTRATIVE SUPPORT FUNCTIONS
Improved management of administrative support functions is one of the objectives of the
President's Management Improvement Program. These functions generally fall under the
purview of the Assistant Secretary for Management (or counterpart). During the
Management Review process this summer, OMB will review with each agency its plans
and strategies for improving and streamlining administrative functions.
1. Describe the agency's plan for achieving further efficiency in the management of
administrative functions throughout the agency. The plan should include both the
new initiatives that would be undertaken in fiscal years 1986-1988 as well as
Initiatives agreed on last year during the FY 1985 Management Review. The plan
should include initiatives that would implement the management-related
recommendations resulting from PPSSCC report(s), the Cabinet Council on
Management and Administration's study of Federal Field Structure, the
management improvement recommendations emanating from Reform 88 and any
other similar governmentwide studies. Examples of initiatives that should be
included in an agency plan are organizational realignments of administrative
operations, automation of administrative processes, and consolidation of
functions. (Please note that this plan is not the same as the agency's Management
Improvement Plan which is to be submitted as an addendum to the fall budget
submission.)
2. For each new or previously agreed-on initiative that the agency proposes to begin in
fiscal years 1985-1988, please describe the initiative and its objective(s), indicate
why the initiative is necessary, identify the timetable for its implementation, note
whether its applicability will be agency-wide or limited to certain agency
components, and describe the expected result(s). For each of the initiatives that
are described, also provide the following information, arraying it by fiscal year
(1985 ? 1988, as applicable):
- The estimated cost (as represented by Budget Authority) of the initiative both
by fiscal year and as a total oast.
The current services budget level for the activity in which the initiative is to
be undertaken and any increases to or decreases from this level that would
result from the initiative. (The level and any increases or decreases should be
extrapolated through FY 1988.)
- The number of FTEs allocated to performing the activity and any increases or
decreases in the FTE number that would result from the initiative.

INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY
DATA CALL
One of the major objectives of the President's Management
Improvement Program is to ensure the effective management and
use of information technology throughout the Federal Government.
Therefore, as part of the FY 1986 Management Review, OMB will
review with each agency its information technology strategies
and plans.
In response to OMB Bulletin 84-9, agencies have already provided
their information technology plans and an inventory of their
major information systems. That information will be utilized
during the Management Review both to identify agency specific
issues for further analysis by the agencies, as well as
background for OMB analysis of government-wide information
technology issues.
Issue-specific Data
1. Telecommunications - What is the Agency's strategy for dealing
with the changing communications environment? This should
include:
o The steps that have been taken to develop an inventory of
customer premises equipment. What is in the inventory
(PBX's, telephones, voice and/or data networks, etc.).
o Have any entities been set up to monitor legislative,
judicial, executive, regulatory and technological changes?
o The major problems you are currently confronting.
o The short and long term strategies for dealing with these
issues.
o Anticipated resource and benefit implications of changes in
the telecommunications environment.
Agencies should describe the steps they have taken to ensure
interconnectivity and optimal sizing of networks, compatibility
between networks and equipment, and system redundancy.
2. End user computing - End user computing means the software,
hardware, telcommunications, personnel and related resources used
to provide automated data processing capability under the direct
control of program officials. End user computing includes, but
is not limited to, office automation systems, personal computers
and microcomputers, whether stand alone or integrated. This
would exclude innovative applications in fundamental scientific
research.

A-76 inventory.
5. Please provide a listing of A-76 studies by title and
location that have been completed in FY 1984, with summary
information on each completed study covering the number of
FTEs reduced, the cost of government operation before the
A-76 review, the cost of government operation after the
review or the winning contractor bid (whichever is lower),
and the difference in costs from the original operation
(savings). (Note: This corresponds to block 4 on the form.)

Identify agency data collection and dissemination functions that
are not presently automated or candidates for automation, but
which would benefit from automation.
Should government-wide standards be developed governing the
automation of these processes?
Information Technology Investment Data (for September 15
Submission)
In addition, it is necessary to track major information
technology investments in the FY 1986 budget. Therefore, by
September 15, each agency should provide a listing of those
budget decision units where the estimates for information
technology resources to support the decision unit exceed $10
million in the budget year, or where the information technology
resources represent more than 25% of the total estimate for the
decision unit. For each unit, identify the information
technology resources for FYs 84, 85 and 86. Include in the
listing, a one line total of all other information technology
requirements for the remainder of the agency. (If no decision
unit meets the above threshold, the listing would consist of the
one line total for FYs 84, 85 and 86.)
For those items on the listing, include in the justification for
the decision unit, a discussion of whether the resources being
sought are to improve public services, increase productivity,
implement a new program, achieve economies, or for some other
reason. Support the reason cited by evidence, preferably
quantified, that summarizes both the costs and benefits of the
proposal.

PAYMENT INTEGRITY PROJECT DATA CALL
Special projects and individual agency initiatives have recently demonstrated
the potential for improving the accuracy of processes by which Federally
funded payments are awarded or issued. Techniques for improving payment
integrity have been identified in entitlement, loan, grant, and procurement
operations. Computer matching, error-prone profiling, quality control,
pre-award screening, and detection of fraudulent identification are some of
the areas that can contribute to improvements in payment operations. The
purpose of this survey is to determine the extent to which payment integrity
techniques are being integrated into eligibility determination, award, and
payment operations.
Questions to be asked of all agencies excluding USIA and AID:
1. Describe any major operational changes for which implementation began in
FY 84, or is planned to begin before the end of FY 86, which will
significantly affect payment integrity-related activities, e.g., operational
and/or organizational changes to accomodate major new computer matching
processes, new error measurement systems, new pre- or post-screening systems,
or new computer security systems. Provide copies of any documents describing
these Changes.
2. Describe any major opportunities which have been identified for improving
the agency's payment integrity efforts. Describe any constraints which
inhibit taking advantage of these opportunities, e.g., legislative changes
required, resource unavailability, systems changes necessary, or interagency
cooperation needed. Provide any available information regarding indicators or
estimates of potential savings that would result from the sucessful
implementation of these techniques.
Questions to be asked regarding the procurement and grant activities of all
agencies excluding USIA and AID:
1. Does the agency check awards for existing debarment and suspension
actions, citations for poor performance, delinquencies in debt to the
Government, audit findings or pending audits, or any other reasons which could
influence the decision to make the award? What is the source of the .
information used for the screening activity? Describe the way the information
is used, including the degree of automation of activities. Are credit reports
used and, if so, how? Is information regarding grantee or contractor
performance reported to other potential users of the information either inside
or outside the agency? If so, to whom and how? Are review boards used for
the screening activity? If so, what is their membership, what is their
specific function, what is the basis of their authority, and what is the

impact of their decisions? What are the results of their screening activities
in terms of the number or percentage of awards which are withheld or
modified? Indicate whether total program costs are decreased as a result of
activities or whether the same amount of funds are used more effectively under
program standards. (For the questions included under item 1, if grants are
made to State and local governments so that funds can then be awarded to
private sector organizations, answers should reflect the State or local
practices in disbursing these funds.)

DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE
1. Have any assessments been made concerning the accuracy of data elements in
the case record data bases maintained by the assistance or benefit programs
administered by your agency? Have any initiatives been undertaken, or are any
planned, that would improve the accuracy or completeness of case record
information that is maintained in automated systems?
2. Are loans that are issued or guaranteed by the agency screened to
ascertain the existence of conditions such as delinquencies in debt to the
Government, duplication with loans already made with other agencies, or credit
reports, which would influence the decision to make the award? If so, how is
the screen conducted? Are automated techniques used? Are risk assessments
conducted and, if so, how?
DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE, Food Stamp Program
3. What is being done or is planned to detect duplicate entitlements--the
same person or persons receiving benefits in more than one case?
4. Have recoveries of overpayments increased substantially over the past
year, or are they projected to increase substantially by the end of FY 1986?
How are increases being achieved?
5. As in AFDC and Medicaid, quality control error rates measure certain
overpayments and payments to ineligibles. What would the Food Stamp error
rate be if all errors, including those which are not counted (e.g. errors
below $5/month were all taken into account?
E. Numerous special projects or initiatives concerning payment integrity
techniques have been undertaken or are underway in Food Stamp agencies. .We
believe that the Food Stamp program offers an excellent setting for
demonstrating a comprehensive payment integrity approach that integrates many
of these techniques into the primary service delivery operations. The results
from such a project would provide valuable guidance for payment integrity
improvement efforts in other agencies. We, therefore, propose to engage the
Iood and Nutrition Service and a number of States in an early Payment
Integrity Project pilot. Interagency and private sector resources may be made
available to assist in planning and implementing such a project. What is your
assessment of such an approach? What would be your general strategy for
planning and implementing such an approach?

with other agencies, or credit reports, which would influence the decision to
make the award? If so, how is the screen conducted? Are automated techniques
used? Are risk assessments conducted and, if so, how? What specific rules
are applied to guarantee agencies, student aid officers, and lenders to assure
adherence to proper loan techniques?
2. When will the Department promulgate GSL due diligence and subrogation
rules to help address the growing student loan default problem? What other
activities are planned for addressing this severe problem?
3. What overall strategy is the Department pursuing to address student aid
payment error? What specific plans are there for dealing with the 2S% error
rate in Pell grant awards? What plans are there for identifying the rates and
causes of error in the other student aid programs? What sanctions are applied
to schools with high error rates?

HHS, HEALTH CARE FINANCING ADMINISTRATION (Medicaid)
3. The reported Quality Control error rates measure payments made for those
who are ineligible. What are the error rates and dollar amounts involved with
all errors that are not currently counted, including payment of claims for
services that are not covered, claims that are calculated incorrectly,
provider errors, provider fraud, and failure to identify third party
liability? What are the error rates and dollars involved for persons Who
receive Medicaid under Section 1634 of the Social Security Act (i.e. because
they are SSI recipients)? What is the potential third party liability amount
associated with SSI recipients that could accrue to the program?
4. Among the payment integrity techniques that are applicable to the medicaid
program are: computer matching and screening, error-prone profiling, quality
control measurement, methods to detect and enforce third-party liability and
medical support obligations of absent parents, and methods to detect and
eliminate the use of fraudulent identification. To what extent are these and
related techniques used by the States? Are they used in all jurisdictions?
Are they used only during special projects, or are they used routinely as an
integral part of the eligibility determination and payment issuance
processes? Would it be possible for a State, or a group of States, to
demonstrate a comprehensive approach to integrating and increasing the use of
established payment integrity techniques in primary service delivery ,
operations? The results from such a project could provide valuable
information concerning the interrelationships of the techniques, their
cost-effectiveness, and guidance for payment integrity improvement efforts in
other agencies. If such a project were to be undertaken, what would be your
general strategy for planning and implementing it?

information in administering its programs and for making this information
available for other programs? Provide a detailed description of how the
system will be developed and operated, a discussion of the options for how the
data could potentially be used by other programs, a description of any factors
that may inhibit use by other programs, and a detailed description of
implementation plans.

of States to demonstrate comprehensive approaches to integrating payment
integrity techniques into the primary service delivery operations of agencies
that administer several Federal programs. What is your assessment of the
prospects for State agencies to conduct such a pilot project? What would be
your general strategy for planning and implementing such an approach? Are any
projects already underway that are examining the coordinated integration of
techniques such as computer matching, error-prone profiling, identification

EXECUTIVE OFFICE OF THE PRESIDENT
OFFICE OF MANAGEMENT AND BUDGET
WASHINGTON. O.C. 20503
? May 17, 1984
BULLETIN NO. 84- 13
TO THE HEADS OF EXECUTIVE DEPARTMENTS AND AGENCIES
SUBJECT: Fiscal Year 1985 Information Collection Budget Request
1. Purpose. This Bulletin provides instructions and materials
for agency submission of the FY 1985 Information Collection
Budget (ICB).
2. Background. Pursuant to the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1980,
the Office of Management and Budget (DMB) issued the regulation
"Controlling Paperwork Burdens on the Public", which requires
designated agencies to prepare an annual information collection
budget, including an estimate of the total number of hours
required of the public to comply with Federal Government requests
for information (reporting, recordkeeping, labeling, disclosure,
etc.).
For the purpose of developing their budget submissions, agencies
should use the definitions of "information," "collection of
information," and "burden" contained in 5 CFR 1320.7. Agencies
are once again reminded that the definition of "collection of
information" includes items such as procurement, disclosure,
labeling, and testing requirements.
3. Objectives. The Paperwork Reduction Act stipulates that the
Director of the Office of Management and Budget shall develop and
implement Federal information policies, principles, standards and
guidelines and provide direction to, and oversight of the efforts
to reduce the Federal paperwork burden. The ICE serves as a
mechanism to implement the Administration's paperwork reduction
program, and to assist agencies in efficient information resource
management.
4. Coverage. The requirement for an FY 1985 Information
Collection Budget applies to the following 35 Executive Branch
departments and agencies:
Department of Agriculture
Department of Commerce
Department of Defense
Department of Education
Department of Energy (incl. FERC)
Department of Health and Human Services
Department of Housing and Urban Development
Department of the Interior
Department of Justice
Department of Labor
Department of State

5. Planning Levels for 1985. Each Agency is expected to reduce
the paperwork burden contained in its estimated September 30, .
1984 inventory five percent by the end of FY 1985. In addition,
each agency should focus its FY 1985 burden reductions in areas
that would 1) seek opportunities to benefit small businesses and
2) continue efforts initiated in FY 1984 to reduce
procurement-related paperwork.
6. Required Materials. This year OMB will provide a listing of
all information collections that were in OMB's inventory on
March 31, 1984. This listing serves as the base for the
FY 1985 ICB submission. Total burden hours for FY 1984 (the
estimated 9/84 inventory) are the total of: 1) information
collections included on this listing that will be in use as of
September 30, 1984, plus 2) new information collections
anticipated to be approved and in use before September 30, 1984,
plus 3) non-OMB-approved information collections that the agency
knows to be in use now, and expects to remain in use at the close
of the fiscal year.
Each agency is required to submit three exhibits:
a. Exhibit 1 is a narrative that should address specific
questions regarding the agency's planning for and
management of information resources. (This exhibit is to
be submitted separately after agency receipt of WB
passback; see paragraph 7.)

Declassified in Part - Sanitized Copy Approved for Release 2013/08/01 : CIA-RDP06M00944R000200160002-7
b. Exhibit 2 contains three listings: 2A, 28 and 2C.
Exhibit 2A consists of the OMB provided listing modified
to 1) reflect changes in burden during FY 1984, 2) reflect
expected changes in burden for FY 1985, 3) provide data on
new information collection activities proposed for use for
the remainder of FY 1984, and 4) list collections that are
unapproved and in use in FY 1984 including procurement,
disclosure, labeling, and testing requirements.
Exhibit 2B provides data on new information collection
activities anticipated for FY 1985.
Exhibit 2C is a summary of anticipated total reporting
burden hours for the department or agency, and, when
requested by the Office of Information and Regulatory
Affairs ()IRA) Desk Officer, its sub-components and major
program areas, for FY 1984 and FY 1985.
Burden estimates for agency use of General Services
Administration (GSA) approved Standard Forms should not be
included in these exhibits. Instead, OMB will utilize
estimates of Standard Forms usage developed by GSA.
c. Exhibit 3 consists of two lists of program changes. One
list should reflect the program increases and decreases to
items in the "FY 1983 Base" that have occurred between
October 1, 1983 and September 30, 1984 (Exhibit 3A); the
other list will reflect the program increases that have
occurred due to the introduction of new information
collections between October 1, 1983 and September 30, 1984
(Exhibit 3B). This exhibit will permit the assessment of
each agency's achievement of allowed program changes,
listed in Table 3 of the FY 1984 Information Collection
Budget. (This exhibit is to be submitted separately; see
paragraph 7.)
Attachment A provides instructions for preparing each exhibit.
In addition to the materials described above, the OIRA Desk
Officer may request additional information necessary to analyze
the agency's request. Agencies should consult their OIRA Desk
Officers early in the development of their request to obtain
agreement on the sub-components, functional units or program
categories to be used in Exhibits 2 and 3, and any additional
supporting materials required.
The head of each department or agency, or the senior official
appointed pursuant to 44 U.S.C. 3506(b), should transmit the
request. The transmittal letter, which should not normally
exceed five pages in length, should summarize the highlights of
the agency's ICB. It should describe the major program changes
and adjustments proposed, justify the FY 1985 burden level
sought, and identify the broad policies proposed and the
objectives and program plans on which the request is based. In
addition, it should specifically describe the major changes that
would affect small businesses and procurement-related paperwork.

7. Submission Dates. The transmittal letter and Exhibit 2 must
be submitted no later than August 10, 1984. Exhibit I shall be
'submitted shortly after the agency receives the ICB passback from
OMB. Each agency will be notified regarding the specific
submission date by its OIRA Desk Officer. Exhibit 3 shall be
submitted by October 12, 1984. Each agency should submit an
original and two copies of all the required materials, addressed
to the Director, Office of Management and Budget, and mailed or
delivered to Room 3002, New Executive Office Building.
8. OMB Actions on Submissions. OMB will hold hearings with
agencies on their requests in August or September 1984. There
will be hearings with each designated agency, unless OMB and the
agency mutually agree otherwise. Hearings will be scheduled by
OIRA staff and will include participation by other OMB staff.
The senior official for the agency, or other policy spokesperson
for the agency, must be present at the hearing. Agency proposals
and staff recommendations will be reviewed and final actions on
agency ICB requests will be made by the Director, Office of
Management and Budget.
9. Disclosure of ICB Material. ICB material must not be
disclosed in any form, until OMB releases the Information
Collection Budget for FY 1985. Agencies are reminded of the
confidential nature of agency ICB requests, recommendations,
supporting materials and related communications. This
confidentiality must be maintained, since these documents are an
integral part of the decisionmaking process by which the Director
resolves ICB issues and develops recommendations for the
President. The Director's ICB decisions are not final until the
ICB itself is released to the public via the ICB publication.
The head of each agency or senior official is responsible for
preventing premature disclosure of this budgetary information.
All budgetary material issued subsequent to OMB decisions must
reflect the decisions of the Director and when aggregated,!

INSTRUCTIONS FOR EXHIBIT 3
Because of the need for all actual program changes through
September 30, this exhibit will not be expected until October 12,
1984. (Exhibit 3 is similar to last year's Exhibit 5 with
modifications.)
List in Exhibit 3A the OMB number, title, and all program changes
(both "increases" and "decreases" that have occurred to items
included in the "FY 1983 Base" through September 30, 1984).
The "FY 1983 Base" consists of the information collections listed
in Exhibits 2A, B, and C from the 1984 ICE. Note that only items
for which a program change occurred during FY 1984 are to be
identified on Exhibit 3A. For these items, enter the burden
figure in the "FY 1983 Base" column on Exhibit 3A as it appeared
in column 4 of your rY 1984 Exhibit 2A or column 3 of your
FY 1984 Exhibits 2B and 2C. The "FY 1983 Base" figures on
Exhibit 3A must correspond to those reported in the FY 1984 ICE
submission. The agency total must also comport with that
reported in OMB's 1984 ICS publication.
Next, enter in the "9/84 Inventory" column the burden as it
appears in column 3 of Exhibit 2A of your FY 1985 ICE submission.
Finally, enter only the program change in the last column.
Agencies will only be credited with achieving reductions that are
thoroughly documented in the OMB public files. Note that the
difference between columns 1 and 3 may not always be totally due
to a program change - i.e., both an "adjustment" and a program
change may account for the difference.
Adjustments (i.e., changes-in-use, reestimates, etc.) cannot be
considered as burden reductions. In calculating program
increases or decreases to items for which adjustments have been
made in FY 1984, the adjusted burden should be listed in column 2
and the proportionate program change should be applied to the
base figure. For example: In the agency's FY 1984 ICE
submission, an information collection was allocated 100 burden
hours in the FY 1983 base. During FY 1984, the burden was
changed to 1,000 hours because of an adjustment. Later in FY
1984, a burden reduction of 400 hours occurred through
elimination of some data elements. This 40 percent burden
reduction should be applied to the base of 100 hours for a 40
hour reduction. See this and other examples on the attached
sample format.
Exhibit 3B consists of all new information collections for which
OMB approval was obtained during FY 1984.

Treasury's Paperwork Control Strategy for Fiscal Year 1984
Major burden reduction efforts in FY 1984 will continue to focus
on the Internal Revenue Service. Plans are underway to simplify
existing tax forms by reformatting or by reducing the amount of
information required; to restructure reporting methods where
possible; and to raise threshold filing requirements for the
submission of detailed information. A significant long-term
research effort has begun which will provide more accurate data
on the paperwork burden imposed by administration of the tax
laws. This study will replace the present methodology for
estimating the burden developed in 1977 and expand it to include
a broader range of requirements on the taxpayer. Another
qualitative research effort will ascertain the concerns,
suggestions, and practices of individuals who have a direct
interest in filing Federal income tax forms. The core of this
effort will be focus group interviews with taxpayers in various
sections of the country. Additionally, the Office of the
Assistant Secretary (Administration) is planning to conduct a
third paperwork conference in Los Angeles in mid-year. This
conference will be attended by representatives of the Treasury
bureaus and will solicit burden reduction ideas from business,
trade and consumer groups.
As a result, Treasury's Information Collection Budget (ICB)
includes an overall burden reduction by the end of FY 1984 of
approximately 21 million burden hours, i.e., a net -3.5 percent
burden reduction. Treasury is to accomplish this by effecting a
21.5 million burden hour reduction (-3.6 percent) in "old"
information collections while holding the burden of "new"
information collections to be introduced in FY 1984 to
approximately 600 thousand hours (+0.1 percent).
Specific Reductions and Increases in Paperwork Burden Anticipated
for FY 1984 and their Relationship to the President's Programs
For FY 1984, Treasury is considering the introduction of a short
version of the corporate tax form (1120A) which would reduce the
burden by approximately 6 million hours. Many more form 1040
filers will be permitted to file form 1040A by allowing the child
care credit and IRA deductions to be claimed on 1040A. The
possibility of allowing taxpayers to claim certain itemized
deductions and report taxable pensions on form 1040A is being
studied. The partnership tax form (1065) will be simplified to
decrease the reporting for small partnerships. The
simplification will permit small partnerships to complete only 2
pages of the form in place of the present 4 pages required, which
will result in a total burden reduction of over 1 million hours.

In the bank regulatory area, s change in Federal law will permit
the Comptroller of the Currency to reduce burden h6urs on a
report by banks on loans to insiders. However, proposed .
increases to three reports reflect continued concern among bank
regulatory agencies about the ability of banks to operate in
less?regulated markets and Congressional concern about bank loans
to foreign countries.
A new Customs bond form and revised bond structure is being
proposed to reduce the number of bond forms in use and simplify
transactions. Simplification of the documentation and procedures
for the entry of merchandise is also proposed which would involve
radical revision of Customs form 7501 and reduce use of three
associated forms. Paperwork burden would also decrease under
proposed legislative changes to raise the informal entry limit;
to ,permit free entry of personal effects and equipment of
Olympics' participants; and to raise currency reporting
requirements.
Changes to the term of the firearms license from one to three
years will reduce paperwork to the firearms industry and Federal
government in excess of $1 million annually when fully
implemented.
Relationship of Treasury's Paperwork Reduction Program to the
Department's Regulatory Relief Program for FY 1984
The regulatory relief program is an integral part of the effort
to reduce burden. The Comptroller of the Currency is reviewing
regulations which require national banks to keep detailed records
on securities transactions effected for customers to determine
possible modifications. A proposal to rescind or modify
regulations regarding the Home Loan Data System dealing with the
home mortgage aspect of banking will be reviewed this year.
Also, regulations regarding requirements for corporate '
applications are under extensive review to determine reductions
in burden associated with chartering, branching, and merging.
The Customs Service published a notice to implement a revised
entry form for the assessment of duty and collection of import
statistics. The proposed form would simplify procedures for the
entry of imported merchandise. A significant burden reduction of
360,000 hours is expected. A proposal to revise the Customs bond
structure and reduce the number of bond forms in use would
simplify transactions for the importing public.

EXECUTIVE OFFICE OF THE PRESIDENT
OFFICE OF MANAGEMENT AND BUDGET
WASHINGTON. D.C. 20503
BULLETIN NO. 84-11
April 19, 1984
TO THE HEADS OF DEPARTMENTS AND ESTABLISHMENTS
SUBJECT: Proposed Revisions to Regulations and Budgetary
Procedures Applicable to the Procurement of Long
Distance Telecommunications Services
1. Purpose. This bulletin informs the departments and agencies
of the intent of the General Services Administration and the
Office of Management and Budget to revise regulations and
budgetary procedures that apply to the procurement of long
distance telecommunications services in order to provide
agencies greater latitude to choose among competing providers
of such services beginning in FY 1986. It is intended to
inform departments and agencies only of the direction of
contemplated changes. Changes in specific procurement
regulations and budget procedures will be announced through
the normal GSA and ONE channels.
2. Policy. In light of changes in the regulatory, competitive,
and technological environment for telecommunications, the
General Services Administration and the Office of Management
and Budget have developed new procurement and budget
mechanisms that will allow civilian agencies greater
flexibility in obtaining long distance telephone services.
These mechanisms will provide agencies with the information
necessary to choose among competing vendors of long distance
services based on actual market prices rather than accounting
costs averaged across the entire government. They will also
improve centralized budget review of Federal long distance
telecommunications expenditures. The changes will be
implemented with the participation of interested Federal
agencies and in time for inclusion in the FY 1986 budget
process. GSA will continue to operate the Federal
Telecommunications System. However, the current cost
allocation mechanism used to charge Federal agencies for
their long distance services will be modified.
The following specific actions are contemplated:
o GSA will develop and publish market determined rates for
specific long distance services provided by FTS to large
Federal agencies by June 15, 1984 and for all other
.Federal agencies by July 31, 1984.
o By June 15, 1984, GSA will prepare proposed amendments to
all telecommunications procurement regulations and other

Declassified in Part - Sanitized Copy Approved for Release 2013/08/01 : CIA-RDP06M00944R000200160002-/
relevant regulations to allow agencies to procure long
distance services directly from competing vendors
beginning in FY 1986. To assure continued oversight of
significant telecommunications expenditures, the new
regulations will require agencies to receive OMB approval
of any major equipment purchase or change in service
provider.
o Private vendors will be informed of this initiative
through notices in the Federal Register and Commerce
Business Daily. They will be alerted that, if they
intend to compete for the government market, they will
have to propose tariffs or in other ways prepare bids for
the provision of specific long distance telephone
services to individual Federal agencies in time for
agencies to make tentative decisions in their September
1984 budget submissions (for FY 1986).
o Any civilian agency that proposes to procure some or all
of its long distance services from a provider other than
GSA in FY 1986 must include in its budget submission an
explicit accounting of the expected cost savings from
such a move. Any related planned equipment expenditures
must be included in the cost comparison. Expected cost
savings for both FY 1986 and outyears must be included.
o An interagency task force, chaired by OMB and with a
deputy from GSA, will be formed as soon as possible to
help implement and monitor these changes in Federal
telecommunications procurement regulations and
procedures. The task force will (1) serve as a forum for
the discussion of telecommunications developments and
agencies' needs; (2) develop methodologies for agencies
to use to forecast their telecommunications needs and to
plan their telecommunications procurements; .(3) assist
OMB and GSA in the development of methodologies for
estimating the total direct and indirect costs to the
Federal government of agencies procuring their long
distance telecommunications services from GSA or from
alternative sources; (4) assist OMB in the development of
simple procedures for the presentation and review of
agencies' telecommunications budget requests; and (5)
review the aggregate impact of agencies' proposals to
procure long distance services from non-GSA providers on
total Federal expenditures and on the quality of
telecommunications services.
o GSA will continue its consulting function. Agencies will
submit all major equipment and long distance service
procurement proposals to GSA for review. GSA will
provide a recommendation to OMB on such proposals within
30 days.

o GSA will develop by October 1, 1984, a 10-year strategic
plan covering all aspects of Federal telecommunications.
The plan will provide a useful framework that agencies,
GSA, OMB, and the interagency task force can use in their
proposals, recommendations, and budget decisions
involving long distance telecommunications services.
3. Inquiries and Participation: Agencies that wish to
participate in the task force should contact Chuck Goldfarb,
Special Studies Division, Economics and Government, Office of
Management and Budget, Room 9201, New Executive Office
Building, Washington, D.C. 20503; telephone [phone].
In order to keep the task force manageable, it will be
limited in size to about ten members. Preference will be
given to agencies with substantial telecommunications needs
and expertise. However, an attempt will be made to include
agencies with diverse needs. Agency representatives should
be senior level staff with telecommunications expertise.

BULLETIN NO. 84-10
-March 28,1984
TO THE HEADS OF EXECUTIVE DEPARTMENTS AND AGENCIES
SUBJECT: Reducing Executive Branch Reports to the Congress
1. Purpose: This Bulletin provides instructions for the
identification of recurring reports to Congress for potential
elimination, consolidation, reduction in frequency, or other
modification. This activity is designed to achieve cost savings
and improve program efficiencies by reducing existing reporting
requirements upon executive branch agencies and streamlining
executive branch communication with the Congress. It is a
follow-on to the review process which resulted in P.L. 96-470,
the Congressional Reports Elimination Act of 1980 and P.L. 97-375,
the Congressional Reports Elimination Act of 1982.
2. Background: In its report entitled The Cost of Congressional
Encroachment, the President's Private SeEtair Survey on Cost
Control stated:
"There is no question that Congress is entitled to
information from agencies on Federal programs so as to
properly discharge its Constitutional responsibilities.
Unfortunately many of the reports Congress requires of the
Executive Branch are: not useful, excessively costly to
produce, no longer relevant, and not even read or .used by
their intended audience, as will be shown. Worse; the number
of reports Congress requires has been rising."
The report contained an explicit recommendation that OMB "seek
legislation that would eliminate requirements for the Executive
Branch to produce reports for Congress that are expensive and
unnecessary."
Together the "Congressional Reports Elimination Act of 1980" and
the "Congressional Reports Elimination Act of 1982" discontinued
or modified about 150 recurring reporting requirements to
Congress. This was accomplished after a review of over 2,000
congressionally mandated reports by all Federal agencies, OMB,
and the General Accounting Office (GAO). These efforts resulted
in a substantial reduction in the reporting burden on executive
branch agencies, with a cost savings estimated by GAO and the
Congressional Budget Office of over $12 million annually.

?
?
Since all agencies continue to work under persongel and budget
restrictions and since the number of congressionally mandated
reports continues to grow by several hundred per year (a recent
estimate is that at least 2,800 recurring reports must be
submitted to the Congress), OMB believes that developitg another
legislative proposal in this area is desirable. In addition, a
number of agencies have requested that OMB prepare another
legislative proposal.
3. Action Required. Agencies are requested to provide
recommendations to eliminate, simplify, or consolidate existing
legislatively mandated reports. GAO maintains an inventory of
reporting requirements for all agencies and has recently
requested data to update the inventory. This request included a
listing of agencies' current requirements, and should be a useful
document in preparing recommendations. Agencies should consider
all existing recurring requirements to fall within the scope of
this exercise, with particular attention to those previously
recommended for termination or modification (Attachment 1) but
not enacted as part of P.L. 96-470 or P.L. 97-375.
Suggested criteria for identifying reports for elimination or
modification include:
a. Duplication
information provided
information provided
and overlap with other reports (i.e.,
to Congress by the agency in another form, or
by other agencies or the public);
b. Reporting burden and other costs (i.e., cost and
reporting burden to the reporting agency and other Federal
agencies, or cost and reporting burden of collecting information
from outside the Federal Government);
c. Original rationale for requiring report (i.e., is this
rationale still valid?),
d. Uses (i.e., use to the reporting agency, and use to
Congress in the opinion of the agency).
After OMB review of agency recommendations and consultations with
the GAO, the Administration will propose an omnibus bill similar
to P.L. 96-470 and 97-375. Upon its introduction all agencies
will be asked to contact relevant congressional committees to
discuss their individual legislative recommendations.
4. Material To Be Submitted. Recommendations should. be submitted
in accordance with the format in Attachment 2. Statutory
references must be as complete as possible, following, precisely
this format. All eliminations should be given Sectioh 100
numbers. All consolidations, reductions in frequency, or other
modifications should be given Section 200 numbers. In addition, a
section-by-section analysis and justification for each
recommendation should be provided as shown in Attachment 2.

Agencies are requested to provide the principal reason for the
recommendation, and to the extent possible, estimates of cost
savings associated with each recommendation. An explanation
should be provided in instances in which reports previously
included in the 1982 bill, but not enacted, are not included in
this year's list.
Material should be sent within 45 days of issuance of this
Bulletin to the Director, Office of Management and Budget,
c/o Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs, Room 3208,
New Executive Office Building, Washington, D.C. 20503.
5. Notification and Inquiries. Upon receipt of this Bulletin,
please notify the Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs
(395-7316) to identify the officials in your agency who will be
responsible for this review. Inquiries concerning this Bulletin
may also be directed to this Office.

Sec. 215. The National Science and Technology Policy, Organiz.' a-
tion, and Priorities Act of 1976 (42 U.S.C. 6601, et seq.; Public Law
94-282) is amended as follows:
(1) section 209 is deleted; and
(2) in section 205(aX11), strike out "section 209" and insert in

(8) section 206 is amended to read as follows:
Section-by-Section Analysis
Section .11:7
Amends the National Seienee and Technolotre Policy Organization
and Priorities Act of 1976 to consolidate the Science and Technology
Report and the Five Yea r Out look Report..
The consolidated report will be issued biennally and is required to
be submitted to the Congress.
Reason for Reconerendation
These two reports are costly and often contain overlapping
and redundant information with annual turn-around times too
short to provide for any meaningful and reflective changes.
The proposed merger of the two reports, to be issued not
less frequently than biennially, would cut costs by at least
one-half, eliminate duplication, and provide for a single
report on Federal and national matters related to science
and technology.
Costs for the two reports currently total approximately
$450,000 per year. Consolidation of the reports will save
approximately $250,000 per year.

'March 26, 1984
BULLETIN NO. 84-8
TO THE HEADS OF EXECUTIVE DEPARTMENTS AND ESTABLISHMENTS
SUBJECT: 1984 Summer Olympics
1. Purpose. We are all in the final stages of preparing for
carrying out the various Federal responsibilities during the 1984
Los Angeles Olympics. This bulletin lays out the specific
process following the meeting of Agency Summer Olympics contacts
on Wednesday, February 29, 1984, for reporting on and monitoring
obligations of funds in support of the 1984 Summer Olympics. We
want to make sure that we carry out the President's direction to
properly carry out the responsibilities of the Federal government
for these Olympics, but that we do so in an organized manner.
2. Action Requirements. We have received reports from all
agencies reflecting approved agency amounts included in the FY
1984 enacted budget. These amounts are summarized in Attachment
1. Agencies which have approved funding for Olympic support not
accurately reflected or projected in Attachment 1 should submit a
change report as soon as possible to William F. Sittman, Special
Assistant to the President, the White House, with a copy to
Deputy Director, Office of Management and Budget. In reporting
such changes:
(1) indicate whether the change has already been
made or is being proposed, and
(2) indicate whether any additional funding is
required, or if additional funds have been made
available by reprogramming.
(3) then, update the status of funding in the
biweekly White House Olympic Task Force report
now being submitted every second Monday to
Bill Sittman. Use the format in Attachment 2
for this update. Note: The next regular
report is due April 9, 1964.
Remember -- any planned obligation of $100,000 or more for a
non-personnel item (based on the data in Attachment 1) will
require prior approval from the White House. Requests for this
approval should also be submitted to Bill Sittman in the format
of Attachment 3 at least two weeks prior to the planned
obligation. The first request for approval should include a
summary of obligations which have already been made or approved
by the agency.

In August 1984, the Inspectors General will conduct audits
of all obligations by Federal agencies in support of the Summer
Olympics. It is important, therefore, that each agency has
effective internal controls and documentation to assure that
appropriate obligations in support of the legal and required
Federal role be made.

h. Timetable -- The dates and citations (if available) for
all past and at least the next future stage of rulemaking.
Whenever applicable, the following standard terms should

6. Structure of the Agenda
Each Agenda will be structured as follows:
a. Agency -- Actions for each agency or subagency will be
grouped together.
b. Type of Action -- Within each agency grouping, entries
will be listed by type of action in the following order:
i. Current and Projected Rulemakings.
ii. Reviews of Existing Regulations -- Existing regula-
tions being reviewed within the agency to determine
whether to propose modifications through rulemaking.

or NPRM, by committing, for example, staff or
financial resources to its development, the action
should be listed under Current and Projected
Rulemakings.
Completed Actions -- These are regulations completed
or withdrawn, and reviews completed since the
preceding Agenda. For such actions agencies shall
provide, at a minimum, title; agency contact name
and phone number; Federal Register citation
(including date) of final action, if available;
reason for completion; and, when applicable, an
indication of whether the action will have an effect
on small entities.
7. Publication of the Unified Agenda of Federal Regulations.
Agencies shall publish their April 1984 Agendas in a uniform
format. Independent agencies are urged to adopt this uniform
format.
The Regulatory Information Service Center (RISC) will place
information, supplied by the agency on specially designed forms,
into a computer system. The computer will produce a tape which
the Government Printing Office (GPO) will use to print the agendas
in a uniform format. Agencies will submit to OMB the RISC forms
along with one signed original and two certified copies of their
preamble. The preamble shall meet the normal requirements for
printing in the Federal Register, including the agency's Billing

Code and a list of CFR parts affected. In addition, the agency
will subtit to OMB a letter addressed to the Office of the
Federal Register authorizing RISC to assemble the agency's agenda
and authorizing GPO to bill the agency for printing its portion of
the Unified Agenda.
If any independent agencies choose not to use the uniform format
they should submit one signed original and two certified copies of
their entire agenda to OMB.
RISC will ensure that all agency agendas are compiled and
forwarded as a complete group to the Office of the Federal
Register, which will have the Government Printing Office print
them in a single day's issue of the Federal Register. All
agencies will be able to obtain reprint copies of their individual
agendas.
8. Effective Date.
This Bulletin applies to Regulatory Agendas to be published in
April 1984. Agencies shall submit all completed agenda materials
to OMB's Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs, Regulatory
Policy Branch, Room 3228, New Executive Office Building, not later
than February 27, 1984.
9. Information Contact.
For further information on the requirements of this Bulletin,
contact the Regulatory Policy Branch, Office of Information and
Regulatory Affairs (OIRA), OMB, telephone [phone], or the
agency's desk officer in OIRA. For further information concerning
automated agenda production, information requirements, format,
completion, or submission of agency agendas, contact the
Regulatory Information Service Center, telephone [phone].
10. Sunset Date.

tion of the April 1984 Agenda. After assessing the implementation
of this Bulletin, OMB will issue guidance for the October 1984
