States Code, is amended by inserting after section 2381 the following
new section:
``Sec. 2382. Consolidation of contract requirements: policy and
restrictions
``(a) Policy.--The Secretary of Defense shall require the Secretary
of each military department, the head of each Defense Agency, and the
head of each Department of Defense Field Activity to ensure that the
decisions made by that official regarding consolidation of contract
requirements of the department, agency, or activity as the case may be,
are made with a view to providing small business concerns with
appropriate opportunities to participate in Department of Defense
procurements as prime contractors and appropriate opportunities to
participate in such procurements as subcontractors.
``(b) Limitation on Use of Acquisition Strategies Involving
Consolidation.--(1) An official of a military department, Defense
Agency, or Department of Defense Field Activity may not execute an
acquisition strategy that includes a consolidation of contract

``(B) identifies any alternative contracting approaches
that would involve a lesser degree of consolidation of contract
requirements; and
``(C) determines that the consolidation is necessary and
justified.
``(2) A senior procurement executive may determine that an
acquisition strategy involving a consolidation of contract requirements
is necessary and justified for the purposes of paragraph (1) if the
benefits of the acquisition strategy substantially exceed the benefits
of each of the possible alternative contracting approaches identified
under subparagraph (B) of that paragraph. However, savings in
administrative or personnel costs alone do not constitute, for such
purposes, a sufficient justification for a consolidation of contract
requirements in a procurement unless the total amount of the cost
savings is expected to be substantial in relation to the total cost of
the procurement.
``(3) Benefits considered for the purposes of paragraphs (1) and
(2) may include cost and, regardless of whether quantifiable in dollar
amounts--
``(A) quality;
``(B) acquisition cycle;
``(C) terms and conditio
2000
ns; and
``(D) any other benefit.

two or more requirements of that department, agency, or
activity for goods or services that have previously been
provided to, or performed for, that department, agency, or

than the total cost of the contract for which the offers are
solicited.
``(2) The term ``multiple award contract'' means--
``(A) a contract that is entered into by the
Administrator of General Services under the multiple
award schedule program referred to in section
2302(2)(C) of this title;
``(B) a multiple award task order contract or
delivery order contract that is entered into under the
authority of sections 2304a through 2304d of this title
or sections 303H through 303K of the Federal Property
and Administrative Services Act of 1949 (41 U.S.C. 253h
through 253k); and

indeterminate quantity contract that is entered into by
the head of a Federal agency with two or more sources
pursuant to the same solicitation.
``(3) The term `senior procurement executive concerned'
means--
``(A) with respect to a military department, the
official designated under section 16(3) of the Office
of Federal Procurement Policy Act (41 U.S.C. 414(3)) as
the senior procurement executive for the military
department; or
``(B) with respect to a Defense Agency or a
Department of Defense Field Activity, the official so
designated for the Department of Defense.
``(4) The term `small business concern' means a business

amended by inserting after the item relating to section 2381 the
following new item:
``2382. Consolidation of contract requirements: policy and
restrictions.''.
(b) Data Review.--(1) The Secretary of Defense shall revise the
data collection systems of the Department of Defense to ensure that
such systems are capable of identifying each procurement that involves
a consolidation of contract requirements within the department with a
total value in excess of $5,000,000.
(2) The Secretary shall ensure that appropriate officials of the
Department of Defense periodically review the information collected
pursuant to paragraph (1) in cooperation with the Small Business
Administration--
(A) to determine the extent of the consolidation of
contract requirements in the Department of Defense; and
(B) to assess the impact of the consolidation of contract
requirements on the availability of opportunities for small
business concerns to participate in Department of Defense
procurements, both as prime contractors and as subcontractors.
(3)(A) No official of the Department of Defense may modify any
existing agency data collection system, create a new agency data
collection system, or collect data not available in existing agency
data collection systems for the purpose of complying with any
requirement of law or regulation to collect data on the consolidation
or bundling of contract requirements except to the extent necessary to
comply with paragraph (1).
(B) The prohibition relating to the collection of data under
subparagraph (A) does not apply to any sampling or study of Department
of Defense contracts that--

``(a) Establishment of Program.--The Secretary of Defense shall
carry out a program known as the `Mentor-Protege Program'.
``(b) Purpose.--The purpose of the program is to provide incentives
for major Department of Defense contractors to furnish eligible small

such an approval shall be known, for the purposes of the program, as a
`mentor firm'.

a mentor firm upon entering into an agreement with the mentor firm as
provided in subsection (e). An eligible small business concern may not

shall be known, for the purposes of the program, as a `protege firm'.
``(3) In entering into an agreement pursuant to subsection (e), a
mentor firm may rely in good faith on a written representation of a
business concern that such business concern is a small business concern
described in subsection (l)(2)(A). The Administrator of the Small
Business Administration shall determine the status of such business
concern as such a small business concern in the event of a protest
regarding the status of the business concern. If at any time the
business concern is determined by the Administrator not to be such a
small business concern, assistance furnished to the business concern by
the mentor firm after the date of the determination may not be
considered assistance furnished under the program.

mentor firm eligible for award of Federal contracts may enter into an
agreement with one or more protege firms under subsection (e) and
provide assistance under the program pursuant to that agreement if--

$100,000,000; or
``(2) the mentor firm demonstrates the capability to assist
in the development of protege firms, and is approved by the
Secretary of Defense pursuant to criteria specified in the

mentor-protege agreement with the protege firm regarding the assistance
to be provided by the mentor firm. The agreement shall include the
following:
``(1) A developmental program for the protege firm, in such
detail as may be reasonable, including--

agreement voluntarily and for the mentor firm to terminate the
agreement for cause.
``(f) Forms of Assistance.--A mentor firm may provide a protege
firm the following:

``(5) Loans.
``(6) Cash in exchange for an ownership interest in the
protege firm, not to exceed 10 percent of the total ownership

Secretary of Defense determines in writing that unusual circumstances
justify reimbursement using a separate contract.
``(B) The determinations made in annual performance reviews of a
mentor firm's mentor-protege agreement under subsection (j)(2) shall be
a major factor in the determinations of amounts of reimbursement, if
any, that the mentor firm is eligible to receive in the remaining years

``(C) The total amount reimbursed under this paragraph to a mentor
firm for costs of assistance furnished in a fiscal year to a protege

``(3)(A) Costs incurred by a mentor firm in providing assistance to
a protege firm that are not reimbursed pursuant to paragraph (2) shall
be recognized as credit in lieu of subcontract awards for purposes of
determining whether the mentor firm attains a subcontracting

cause.

subcontracting participation goal applicable to such mentor firm for
each subcontract for a product or service awarded under such contract
by a mentor firm to a business concern that, except for its size, would
be a small business concern owned and controlled by socially and
economically disadvantaged individuals, but only if--

two times the maximum size specified by the Administrator of
the Small Business Administration for purposes of determining

``(2) Notwithstanding section 8 of the Small Business Act (15
U.S.C. 637), the Small Business Administration may

eligible small business concern to be ineligible to receive any
assistance authorized under the Small Business Act on the basis that
such business concern has participated in the Mentor-Protege Program or
has received assistance pursuant to any developmental assistance
agreement authorized under such program.
``(3) The Small Business Administration may not require a firm that
is entering into, or has entered into, an agreement under subsection
(e) as a protege firm to submit the agreement, or any other document
required by the Secretary of Defense in the administration of the
Mentor-Protege Program, to the Small Business Administration for
review, approval, or any other purpose.

SEC. 903. SENSE OF CONGRESS REGARDING THE SELECTION OF OFFICERS FOR
ASSIGNMENT AS THE COMMANDER IN CHIEF, UNITED STATES
TRANSPORTATION COMMAND.
(a) Findings.--Congress makes the following findings:
(1) The Goldwater-Nichols Department of Defense
Reorganization Act of 1986 envisioned that an officer would be
assigned to serve as the commander of a combatant command on
the basis of being the best qualified officer for the
assignment rather than the best qualified officer of the armed
force that has historically supplied an officer to serve in
that assignment.
(2) In order to provide for greater competition among the
Armed Forces for selection of officers for assignment as the
commanders of the combatant commands and assignment to certain
other joint positions in the grade of general or admiral,
Congress provided temporary relief from the limitation on the
number of officers serving on active duty in the grade of
general or admiral in section 405 of the National Defense
Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 1995 and thereafter extended
that relief until September 30, 2003, but has also required
that the Secretary of Defense be furnished the name of at least
one officer from each of the Armed Forces for consideration for
appointment to each such position.
(3) Most of the positions of commanders of the combatant
commands have been filled successively by officers of more than
one of the Armed Forces since the enactment of the Goldwater-
Nichols Department of Defense Reorganization Act of 1986.
(4) However, general officers of the Air Force with only
limited experience in the transportation services have usually
filled the position of Commander in Chief of the United States
Transportation Command.
(5) The United States Transportation Command and its
component commands could benefit from the appointment of an
officer selected from the two armed forces that are the primary
users of their transportation resources, namely the Army and
the Marine Corps.
(b) Sense of Congress.-- In light of the findings set forth in
subsection (a), it is the sense of Congress that the Secretary of
Defense should, when considering officers for recommendation to the
President for appointment as the Commander in Chief, United States
Transportation Command, give careful consideration to recommending an
officer of the Army or the Marine Corps.

(1) by inserting before the period at the end of paragraph
(1) the following: ``, together with a specific assessment of
whether there is a need for a major force program for funding
joint warfighting experimentation and for funding the
development and acquisition of any technology the value of
which has been empirically demonstrated through such

Subtitle F--Rocky Flats National Wildlife Refuge
SEC. 3171. SHORT TITLE.
This subtitle may be cited as the ``Rocky Flats National Wildlife
Refuge Act of 2001''.
SEC. 3172. FINDINGS AND PURPOSE.
(a) Findings.--Congress finds the following:
(1) The Federal Government, through the Atomic Energy
Commission, acquired the Rocky Flats site in 1951 and began
operations there in 1952. The site remains a Department of
Energy facility. Since 1992, the mission of the Rocky Flats
site has changed from the production of nuclear weapons
components to cleanup and closure in a manner that is safe,
environmentally and socially responsible, physically secure,
and cost-effective.
(2) The site has generally remained undisturbed since its
acquisition by the Federal Government.
(3) The State of Colorado is experiencing increasing growth
and development, especially in the metropolitan Denver Front
Range area in the vicinity of the Rocky Flats site. That growth
and development reduces the amount of open space and thereby
diminishes for many metropolitan Denver communities the vistas
of the striking Front Range mountain backdrop.
(4) Some areas of the site contain contamination and will
require further remediation. The national interest requires
that the ongoing cleanup and closure of the entire site be
completed safely, effectively, and without unnecessary delay
and that the site thereafter be retained by the United States
and managed so as to preserve the value of the site for open
space and wildlife habitat.
(5) The Rocky Flats site provides habitat for many wildlife
species, including a number of threatened and endangered
species, and is marked by the presence of rare xeric tallgrass
prairie plant communities. Establishing the site as a unit of
the National Wildlife Refuge System will promote the
preservation and enhancement of those resources for present and
future generations.
