* The Department of Justice 2008 budget request was built on a starting point that recognized progress in enacting the FY 2007 appropriation. The starting point used (referred to throughout this document as the "Estimate") is the average of the Senate Committee and House passed marks, less one percent, unless noted otherwise.
* *As noted, the FY 2007 Estimate is the average of the House and Senate levels less 1 percent. Due to last minute amendments in the FY 2007 House and Senate action, General Administration was drastically reduced, causing an arbitrarily low start point to formulate the FY 2008 request. Under the FY 2007 continuing resolution (P.L. 109-383), OMB and Congress approved an anomaly for General Administration to maintain the FY 2006 current rate of operations. To correct this problem for FY 2008, the President's budget includes a base adjustment of $61,773,000 to provide a viable current services level.
***The NDIC amount reflects the transfer of funds from the Intelligence Community Management Account to DOJ for the phased shutdown of the center. The FY 2007 NDIC amount is based on the actual enacted amount under the DOD appropriation.
