The result is that severe cuts areapparently being made in a number of federal programs in an effort toreach_that balanced budget.  \nTrying to cut most of the $38 billion(some of which wil¹beoffset by increasing federal revenue)out of the budget must result ina considerable scaling down of at least some major federal programs.  \nAs in any jungle,the survivors in the federal bureaucraticthicket are the strongest agencies and programs,with strengthdetermined by such factors as wide public support,powerful and/ornumerous allies in Congress,and so on.  \nUnfortunately,good conservation and environmental programs arefrequently perceived by the gnomes in the Office of Management andBudget as ones from which a few pounds of \"fat\"can always be trimmed.Anyone remotely familiar with the needs,however,knows that even thebudgets the conservation and environmental departments and agenciesrequest are inadequate:what comes out at the end of the budgetprocess is even more so.Further cuts will be from bone and muscle.  \nInformation is leaking out of Interior,Agriculture and otheragencies that they are being ordered to pare both programs andpersonnel.  In some cases,the cuts are going so deep that entireservices and programs could be eliminated.  \nThis is the season for final decisions to be made on the fiscal1980 budget.It would be an appropriate time to write and remind thepresident that money spent on the wise management of the nation'snatural resources and maintenance of environmental quality are two ofthe best investments we can make.  \nWe know that,unlike some of_his predecessors,President Carterunderstands this.But it would help him if he heard from a lot of usthat we also understand it.          \n# STILL NO ACTION ON ALASKA D-2 BILL\n\nThe Senate Energy and Natural Resources Committee met Sept.26 toconsider the remaining issues of the Alaska D-2 lands debate.Although no action was taken,the staff did brief Committee members onthe designation of lands in southeast Alaska.Much of the discussioncentered on the potential effects of wilderness designation on localtimber industries.  \nThe Committee is scheduled to meet again on Sept.27 and 28.  \n# SUMMARY\n\nA major floor fight isshaping up over language beingreported back to the house byIntericr Appropriations confereesthat would amend the NationalEnvironmental Pelicy Act(NEPA).The language,adopted by theSenate,requires that any projectfor which a final EnvironmentalImpact Statemert(EIS)has beenfiled shall be built regardlessof the findings of_a mandatedcomprehensive EIS.","cbCaidYzrB1X8ZdJ","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaidYzrB1X8ZdJ","pdf",1337299,"English","# Editorial/Opinion\n## Worrying About Fiscal '80\n# Still No Action on Alaska D-2 Bill\n# Summary\n# Dingell, Murphy Lead Fight\n# Floor Fight to Come on NEPA Override Attempt\n## Westerners Defend Amendment\n## Amendment Procedure Criticized\n# Pesticide Amendments Finally Clear Congress","[{\"question\":\"What is the main concern raised about the fiscal 1980 budget?\",\"answer\":\"The report argues that budget pressures will lead to deep cuts to federal conservation and environmental programs, reducing services and eliminating efforts in some cases.\"},{\"question\":\"What does the NEPA amendment proposal aim to change?\",\"answer\":\"It would require projects with a filed final EIS to proceed regardless of the findings of a mandated comprehensive EIS for impacts across the Colorado River Basin.\"},{\"question\":\"Which other legislative areas are covered alongside NEPA in this report?\",\"answer\":\"The report also discusses Alaska D-2 lands, pesticide amendments to the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide and Rodenticide Act, and issues related to endangered species and other public-lands topics.\"}]","Conservation Report - No.2995th Congress - September 29, 1978 | PDF",1789963318,23]
