511. None of the funds made available to the
Department of Justice in this Act may be used to discriminate against or
denigrate the religious or moral beliefs of students who participate in
programs for which financial assistance is provided from those funds, or of the
parents or legal guardians of such students.

(a) Tracing studies conducted by the Bureau of

disclaimers regarding the limitations of the data.
(b) For fiscal year 2013 and
thereafter, the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives shall
include in all such data releases, language similar to the following that would
make clear that trace data cannot be used to draw broad conclusions about
firearms-related crime:
(1) Firearm traces are
designed to assist law enforcement authorities in conducting investigations by
tracking the sale and possession of specific firearms. Law enforcement agencies
may request firearms traces for any reason, and those reasons are not
necessarily reported to the Federal Government. Not all firearms used in crime
are traced and not all firearms traced are used in crime.
(2) Firearms selected for
tracing are not chosen for purposes of determining which types, makes, or
models of firearms are used for illicit purposes. The firearms selected do not
constitute a random sample and should not be considered representative of the
larger universe of all firearms used by criminals, or any subset of that
universe. Firearms are normally traced to the first retail seller, and sources
reported for firearms traced do not necessarily represent the sources or
methods by which firearms in general are acquired for use in crime.
515.
(a) The Inspectors General of the Department of
Commerce, the Department of Justice, the National Aeronautics and Space
Administration, the National Science Foundation, and the Legal Services

Act, and shall submit reports to Congress on the progress of such audits, which
may include preliminary findings and a description of areas of particular
interest, within 180 days after initiating such an audit and every 180 days
thereafter until any such audit is completed.
(b) Within 60 days after the date on which an
audit described in subsection (a) by an Inspector General is completed, the
Secretary, Attorney General, Administrator, Director, or President, as
appropriate, shall make the results of the audit available to the public on the
Internet website maintained by the Department, Administration, Foundation, or
Corporation, respectively. The results shall be made available in redacted form
to exclude—
(1) any matter described in
section 552(b) of title 5, United States Code; and
(2) sensitive personal
information for any individual, the public access to which could be used to
commit identity theft or for other inappropriate or unlawful purposes.
(c) A grant or contract
funded by amounts appropriated by this Act may not be used for the purpose of
defraying the costs of a banquet or conference that is not directly and
programmatically related to the purpose for which the grant or contract was
awarded, such as a banquet or conference held in connection with planning,
training, assessment, review, or other routine purposes related to a project
funded by the grant or contract.
(d) Any person awarded a
grant or contract funded by amounts appropriated by this Act shall submit a
statement to the Secretary of Commerce, the Attorney General, the
Administrator, Director, or President, as appropriate, certifying that no funds
derived from the grant or contract will be made available through a subcontract
or in any other manner to another person who has a financial interest in the
person awarded the grant or contract.
(e) The provisions of the
preceding subsections of this section shall take effect 30 days after the date

with the Director of the Office of Government Ethics, determines that a uniform
set of rules and requirements, substantially similar to the requirements in
such subsections, consistently apply under the executive branch ethics program
to all Federal departments, agencies, and entities.
516.

Investigation or other appropriate Federal entity, has made an assessment of
any associated risk of cyber-espionage or sabotage associated with the
acquisition of such system, including any risk associated with such system
being produced, manufactured or assembled by one or more entities that are
owned, directed or subsidized by the People's Republic of China.
(b) None of the funds appropriated or otherwise
made available under this Act may be used to acquire an information technology
system described in an assessment required by subsection (a) and produced,
manufactured or assembled by one or more entities that are owned, directed or
subsidized by the People's Republic of China unless the head of the assessing
entity described in subsection (a) determines, and reports that determination
to the Committees on Appropriations of the House of Representatives and the
Senate, that the acquisition of such system is in the national interest of the
United States.
517. None of the funds made available in this
Act shall be used in any way whatsoever to support or justify the use of

Government.

Regulations (ITAR), part 121, as it existed on April 1, 2005) with a total
value not exceeding $500 wholesale in any transaction, provided that the
conditions of subsection (b) of this section are met by the exporting party for
such articles.
(b) The foregoing exemption
from obtaining an export license—
(1) does not exempt an
exporter from filing any Shipper's Export Declaration or notification letter
required by law, or from being otherwise eligible under the laws of the United
States to possess, ship, transport, or export the articles enumerated in
subsection (a); and
(2) does not permit the
export without a license of—
(A) fully automatic firearms
and components and parts for such firearms, other than for end use by the
Federal Government, or a Provincial or Municipal Government of Canada;
(B) barrels, cylinders,
receivers (frames) or complete breech mechanisms for any firearm listed in
Category I, other than for end use by the Federal Government, or a Provincial
or Municipal Government of Canada; or
(C) articles for export from
Canada to another foreign destination.
(c) In accordance with this
section, the District Directors of Customs and postmasters shall permit the
permanent or temporary export without a license of any unclassified articles
specified in subsection (a) to Canada for end use in Canada or return to the
United States, or temporary import of Canadian-origin items from Canada for end
use in the United States or return to Canada for a Canadian citizen.
(d) The President may require
export licenses under this section on a temporary basis if the President
determines, upon publication first in the Federal Register, that the Government
of Canada has implemented or maintained inadequate import controls for the
articles specified in subsection (a), such that a significant diversion of such
articles has and continues to take place for use in international terrorism or
in the escalation of a conflict in another nation. The President shall
terminate the requirements of a license when reasons for the temporary
requirements have ceased.
519. Notwithstanding any other provision of law,
no department, agency, or instrumentality of the United States receiving
appropriated funds under this Act or any other Act shall obligate or expend in
any way such funds to pay administrative expenses or the compensation of any

pursuant to 22 U.S.C. 2778(b)(1)(B) and qualified pursuant to 27 CFR section

Reporting Act; The National Security Act of 1947; USA PATRIOT Act; and the laws
amended by these Acts.
522. If at any time during any quarter, the
program manager of a project within the jurisdiction of the Departments of
Commerce or Justice, the National Aeronautics and Space Administration, or the
National Science Foundation totaling more than $75,000,000 has reasonable cause
to believe that the total program cost has increased by 10 percent, the program
manager shall immediately inform the respective Secretary, Administrator, or
Director. The Secretary, Administrator, or Director shall notify the House and
Senate Committees on Appropriations within 30 days in writing of such increase,
and shall include in such notice: the date on which such determination was
made; a statement of the reasons for such increases; the action taken and
proposed to be taken to control future cost growth of the project; changes made
in the performance or schedule milestones and the degree to which such changes
have contributed to the increase in total program costs or procurement costs;
new estimates of the total project or procurement costs; and a statement
validating that the project's management structure is adequate to control total

prospective contractor or grantee certifies in writing to the agency awarding
the contract or grant that, to the best of its knowledge and belief, the
contractor or grantee has filed all Federal tax returns required during the
three years preceding the certification, has not been convicted of a criminal
offense under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, and has not, more than 90 days
prior to certification, been notified of any unpaid Federal tax assessment for
which the liability remains unsatisfied, unless the assessment is the subject
of an installment agreement or offer in compromise that has been approved by
