These are amendments I would have offered had the bill come up under a rule. These amendments would add $20 million to the amount authorized for operating expenses of the Coast Guard for fiscal year 1981 and $33 million to last years authorization. These amounts are to cover increased fuel costs that will impact the Coast Guard as a result of fuel oil price increases and expanded operations as a result of the Cuban refugee sealift. These amendments also narrow the increased authority being granted to the Coast Guard in the use of the supply funda revolving fund that finances the procurement and maintenance of inventories of uniform clothing. provisions. and fuel to support Coast Guard operating units. The amendment is in accordance with the administrations request and will conform this section of the bill to the Senatepassed version.
