Speaker of the House of Representatives

     On March 18, 1982, the President's tenth special message
for fiscal year 1982 was transmitted to the Congress pursuant
to the Impoundment Control Act of 1974. The special message
proposes one rescission of budget authority totalling $215.2
million, five new deferrals totalling $58.9 million and revi-
sions to two previously reported deferrals which increase the
amounts deferred by $14.6 million. Our report follows.

of the Treasury is required to make available to the Postal
Service 25 percent of its annual appropriated funds at the
beginning of each quarter of each fiscal year. According to
the Postal Service's National Financial Branch Manager, no
funds are currently being withheld, and as of April 1, 1982,
$625,852,800, out of total budget authority of $834,470,400,
had been made available, leaving $208,617,600. In order to
effect the proposed rescission of $215,230,000, over $6 mil-
lion would have to be returned to the Treasury.
