                    APPROPRIATIONS FOR FISCAL YEAR 2018


                                 WEDNESDAY,   JUNE  14, 2017

                                                       U.S. SENATE,
                      SUBCOMMITTEE OF THE COMMITTEE ON APPROPRIATIONS,
                                                           Washington, DC.
                   The subcommittee met at 2:40 p.m. in room SD-138, Dirksen
                 Senate Office Building, Hon. Lamar Alexander (chairman) pre-
                 siding.
                   Present: Senators Alexander, Hoeven, Feinstein, Udall, and
                 Merkley.
                                 DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY
                          NATIONAL NUCLEAR SECURITY ADMINISTRATION
                 STATEMENT  OF HON. LIEUTENANT  GENERAL FRANK  G. KLOTZ, U.S.
                      AIR FORCE (Retired), UNDER SECRETARY FOR NUCLEAR SECU-
                      RITY AND ADMINISTRATOR
                 ACCOMPANIED  BY:
                    PHILIP T. CALBOS, ACTING DEPUTY  ADMINISTRATOR  FOR DE-
                      FENSE PROGRAMS
                    DAVID G. HUIZENGA, ACTING DEPUTY ADMINISTRATOR  FOR DE-
                      FENSE NUCLEAR NONPROLIFERATION
                        OPENING STATEMENT OF SENATOR LAMAR ALEXANDER
                   Senator ALEXANDER. The subcommittee on Energy and  Water
                 Development will please come to order. Today's hearing will review
                 the Administration's fiscal 2018 budget request for the National
                 Nuclear Security Administration. This is the second of the sub-
                 committee's four budget hearings this year and we will have two
                 more this month.
                   Let me make two preliminary remarks. There is one representa-
                 tive of the Capitol Police Force here in the room with us and I
                 want to thank him and his colleagues for their courage today. They
                 helped prevent what could have been a massacre in Alexandria
                 when the gunman came in and began firing at Congressmen. So we
                 thank you for that and we hope that those who are wounded in-
                 cluding two Capitol policemen or women will recover, as well as
                 Congressman Scalise and a staff member.
                   Second, we have a distinguished group of witnesses that I am
                 going to introduce in a minute, but I believe both General Klotz
                 and Admiral Caldwell have been working with us for about 3 years
                 now. And I would say to both of you how much I appreciate your
                 leadership and your willingness to answer our questions and work
                                             (1)
