OGC-81-9 1 (1981-05-14)

handle is hein.gao/gaobabbxy0001 and id is 1 raw text is: -1 COMPTROLLER GENERAL OF THE UNITED STATES WASHINGTON D.C. 20548 B-200685 May 14, 1981 To the President of the Senate and the Speaker of the House of Representatives On March 19, 1981, the Eresident's eighth special message for fiscal year 19811was transmitted to the Congress pursuant to the Impoundment C6ntrol Act of 1974. The special message proposes 33 rescissions of budget authority totalling $2.8 bil- lion and one new deferral totalling $8.0 million. Former President Carter submitted 33 rescission proposals in the third special message, dated January 15, 1981. Presi- dent Reagan had-converted these rescissions into deferrals in his fifth special message. We stated in our response to the President's fifth special message dated March 11, 1981, that if the rescissions later were resubmitted, the temporary conversion to deferrals should not result in the President having a new 45- day withholding period, but should only toll the running of the 45-day period. Therefore, since 22 days had already run before the conversion to deferrals took place, the rescissions resub- mitted in this special message were subject to a 23-day with- holding period which ended on April 27, 1981. Our review of apportionment forms furnished by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) shows that on April 28, 1981, the subject budget authority was apportioned by OMB to the proper agencies for allotment to the programs involved since none of the proposed rescissions have been enacted. The impoundments proposed in the eighth special message are as follows: DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE R81-123 R81-124 National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration Operations, Research, and Facilities 13X1450 National Telecommunications and Information Administration Public Telecommunications Facilities, Planning and Construction 13X0551 OGC-81-9 -a ~/ / cx 115253
