MAINLAND, Clerk and Staff Director MILITARY CONSTRUCTION APPROPRIATIONS FOR 1980 INTRODUCTION Parts I and II of the House Military Construction Appropriations Subcommittee hearings contain the justification materials submitted to the Congress in support of the President's request for military construction. Preceding the justification materials are the State List of proposed construction and a list of Active Force construction by type of activity, both prepared by the Department of Defense. In order to facilitate the location of various facilities, a series of maps of major military installations in the United States is included. Each year the Defense Department submits two essentially similar requests to the Congress for the military construction program. These are the request for authorization, included here in the form of a legislative proposal transmitted to the Speaker of the House of Representatives, and the separate request for appropriations to fund the military construction program. There are minor differences between the two requests because not all appropriations require annual authorization (planning and design, access roads, and minor construction) and because certain projects were authorized in prior years but were not funded. Also, appropriations for construction at Army ammunition plants are contained in the Defense Appropriation Act but are authorized in the Military Construction Authorization Act. A reconciliation of the differences between the authorization and appropriation requests appears at the end of the State List.
