CRS-35 elements in varying degrees shifted funds to the regulatory and research efforts for EPA's hazardous waste program. while funding increases have benefited EPA's hazardous, toxic, and acid rain research efforts, other more traditional research efforts have remained the same or declined in past years. In particu- lar, EPA has focused its funding priorities on research directly in support of regulatory decisions and away from long-term and exploratory research, and control technology development as well. For FY86, immediate attention will be directed to those key programs which Congress decided needed funding emphasis or add-ons, while other attention will be devoted to programs which have remained the same or have decreased. While the 4.3 percent reduction will initially be evenly applied, reprogramming and perhaps transfers will, according to some, take away the evenness of the sequester order. Some research programs could then suffer more heavily inf such a reprogramming scenario. This gives the appropriation committees a mid-year, post sequestration reassessment period during which to evaluate funding emphasis. Transfers of appropriations between accounts (unlikely at this time) require changes in law, and would involve authorizing committees and the full Congress. As for the Superfund Research and Development Program, the Congress appropriated $900 million for Superfund, including 313 million for research, but prohibited obligation of the funds until Superfund reauthorization legisla- tion is enacted. Thus, Superfund research funding will not be affected by the sequestration until a later late.
