S.Amdt. 2928

SA 2928. Mrs. GILLIBRAND (for herself, Ms. Baldwin, and Mr. Johnson)
submitted an amendment intended to be proposed to amendment SA 2910
proposed by Mr. Shelby to the bill H.R. 5895, making appropriations for
energy and water development and related agencies for the fiscal year
ending September 30, 2019, and for other purposes; which was ordered to
lie on the table; as follows:

At the end of title I of division C, add the following:
Sec. ___. (a) Finding.--Congress finds that, given that the
Air Force maintains a so-called ``scorecard'' to determine
where to place aircraft and missions, Congress requires a
report on the criteria and any analytical models employed in
such determinations in order to ensure that future
appropriations for military construction in connection with
such determinations with respect to KC-46 aircraft are
appropriate in light of the needs of the Air Force regarding
such aircraft.
(b) Report.--
(1) In general.--Not later than December 31, 2019, the
Secretary of Air Force shall submit to the congressional
defense committees a report setting forth the results of a
review, conducted by the Secretary for purposes of the
report, of the analytical model used for strategic basing of
KC-46 aircraft.
(2) Particular element.--The report shall include such
recommendations of the Secretary for the analytical model as
the Secretary considers appropriate in order to ensure that
the model addresses changes in refueling requirements along
the Northern Tier of the United States as a result of the
2018 National Defense Strategy and associated mobility
capability requirements, including, in particular, in
connection with the growth of activities in the Northern
Polar region by global and regional powers.
