The Center is located at a remote site and, the pro- posed service will provide access to shopping centers, to recreation areas and to places of wor- ship. These activities appear reasonably related to the purpose of the appropriation. The Director of the Federal Law Enforcement Training Center has requested an advance decision on whether the Center- may use appropriated funds to provide a limited off-site transportation program for students who must live at the facility for the duration of their trainingprogram. For the reasons indicated below, we conclude that funds in the Cen- ter's annual appropriation earmarked for student athletic and related activities are available for this purpose. Organizationally, the Center is a Bureau of the Department of the Treasury which acts as lead agency in carrying out the program. It operates as an interagency facility to provide in-service training to Federal law enforcement officers throughout the Government and to conduct research in law enforcement training methods. Eight Government agencies jointly sponsor training its activities, pursuant to a memorandum of understanding signed September 30, 1970, and most recently updated on February 1, 1984. A Board of Directors, composed of representatives from eight of the participating agencies prescribes policy for the Center. Administrative functions are performed by the Director, who is appointed by the Secretary of the Treasury and approved by the Board. The Center is financed by its own appropriations and, by reimbursements when a particular agency requires unique or unprogrammed activities. Located at the former Navy base in Glynco, Georgia, the Center is several miles from Brunswick, the nearest town. There is no public transportation to Brunswick and most students do not have cars. While at the Center students are WV) 30
