I have determined that the cancellation of these amounts will reduce the Federal budget deficit, will not impair any essential Government functions, and will not harm the national interest. William J. Clinton. THE WHITE HOUSE, October 6, 1997. Cancellation No. 97-4 CANCELLATION OF DOLLAR AMOUNT OF DISCRETIONARY BUDGET AUTHORITY Report Pursuant to the Line Item Veto Act, P.L. 104-130 Bill Citation: ``Military Construction Appropriations Act, 1998'' (H.R. 2016). 1(A). Dollar Amount of Discretionary Budget Authority: $2,650 thousand for Military Construction, Army project ``Live Fire Command and Control Facility, Fort Irwin, California'' on page 17 of House Report 105-247 dated September 9, 1997. 1(B). Determinations: This cancellation will reduce the Federal budget deficit, will not impair any essential Government functions, and will not harm the national interest. 1(C),(E). Reasons for Cancellation; Facts, Circumstances, and Considerations Relating to or Bearing upon the Cancellation; and Estimated Effect of Cancellation on Objects, Purposes, and Programs: This project would construct a command and control facility to execute the tactical, administrative, and safety functions in brigade-level live fire operations. The project includes a helicopter landing pad, radio relay rooms, and supporting infrastructure. The project is being canceled because: (1) it was not requested in the President's FY 1998 Budget; (2) it would not substantially improve the quality of life of military service members and their families; and (3) architectural and engineering design of this project has not started, making it unlikely that these funds can be used for construction during FY 1998. Without this project, Fort Irwin will be able to continue to operate and train using existing facilities. 1(D). Estimated Fiscal, Economic, and Budgetary Effect of Cancellation: As a result of the cancellation, Federal outlays will not increase, as specified below. This will have a commensurate effect on the Federal budget deficit and, to that extent, will have a beneficial effect on the economy.

This project would provide new space for the Asian-Pacific Center for Security Studies. The [[Page 52456]] Center provides facilities and programs for national officials and military officers to explore pressing issues regarding the security environment of the Asian-Pacific region. The project is being canceled because: (1) it was not requested in the President's FY 1998 Budget; (2) it would not substantially improve the quality of life of military service members and their families; and (3) architectural and engineering design of this project has not started, making it unlikely that these funds can be used for construction during FY 1998.

Reasons for Cancellation; Facts, Circumstances, and Considerations Relating to or Bearing upon the Cancellation; and Estimated Effect of Cancellation on Objects, Purposes, and Programs: This project would provide a new wharf for ship repair and demolish two abandoned shipbuilding ways and two buildings.
