| Footnotes for line 6190 (Previous): | A1: The attached apportionment includes unobligated balances, carried over from FY 2022, estimated receipts and anticipated spending authority from offsetting collections. To the extent authorized by law, these amounts may be adjusted upwards by up to $2,000,000 or ten percent of the amount of total budgetary resources, whichever is lower, for indefinite appropriations, actual unobligated balances, actual recoveries of prior year obligations, actual reimbursements earned, including reimbursements and offsetting collections from non-Federal/Federal sources, contributions from non-Federal/Federal sources, and release of contingency funds without further action by OMB. Transfer of funds authorized by law to or from any of the accounts listed may be made without further action by OMB. [Rationale: Footnote signifies that this TAFS has received or may receive an automatic apportionment.] A2: All availability costs for all aircraft types (helicopters, tankers, other) under exclusive use contracts shall be charged to and accounted for in Wildland Fire Management (WFM) Preparedness, and may be charged to and accounted for in Wildland Fire Management Suppression Operations in an amount not to exceed $86 million. Availability costs for all aircraft types (helicopters, tankers, other) under call-when-needed contracts, and all flight time costs for all aircraft types (helicopters, tankers, other) under both exclusive use contracts and call-when-needed contracts, shall continue to be charged to and accounted for in WFM Suppression Operations. This business rule is consistent with the business rule at Department of the Interior for aircraft costs, and will ensure that wildfire cap adjustment resources are only used for costs that vary with the volume of wildfire suppression operations. The not to exceed $86 million exception to allow some suppression funds for exclusive use aircraft availability is provided because the base level for Wildland Fire Suppression Operations, the average cost over ten years requested in the President's 2015 Budget, includes this amount as an estimate for cost pool assessments that would not have been used for direct spending on Wildland Fire Suppression Operations. [Rationale: Footnote specifies the purpose(s) for which funds are available to be obligated.] A3: All base 8 pay period costs for agency Wildland Fire employees (including permanent and temporary status) assigned to a wildfire incident as either firefighting or support personnel, as well as the costs incurred to hire, train and provide boot stipends to all firefighting and support personnel shall be charged to and accounted for in Wildland Fire Management (WFM) Salary and Expenses. Base 8 pay period costs for employees extended beyond their original term of employment, contract and casual hires, and firefighting and support personnel costs for overtime pay, hazard pay, and environmental differential pay shall continue to be charged to and accounted for in WFM Suppression. This business rule update is generally consistent with the business rule at Department of the Interior for base 8 pay period costs, and will ensure that wildfire cap adjustment resources are only used for costs that vary with the volume of wildfire suppression operations.
