S&T USA - 19 MARCH 1996 - SPECIAL BUDGET EDITION
US SCIENCE & TECHNOLOGY BUDGET FY ’97
Jack Gibbons, Scientific Adviser to the President, gave a brief
overview of the President’s S&T Budget for 1997.
In this rather bizarre year when some agencies are still awaiting
their ‘96 budgets, it should be noted that any percentage increases
are based on 1996 figures which in many cases Congress has not
agreed on. The overall picture is that Clinton is asking for an S&T
budget of roughly $73 billion, an increase of $1 billion on his
1996 bid.
Those that did well in terms of R&D investments were Commerce (up
16%), EPA (up 15%) and Transportation Agency (up 9%). The Commerce
figure is slightly misleading because the Administration are putting
back money for applied research programmes like ATP which Congress
has taken away. However that aside, applied research generally
fares better than basic except in the Defence area. Overall
University Research goes up by only 1% but within that, university
merit-reviewed research shows an increase of 6%.
Clinton is firmly wedded to his government industry partnership
programmes. The Advanced Technology Programme (ATP) (up by 15%),
Partnership for a New Generation of Vehicles (up 5%) and new Building
and Construction Technologies receive a 20% boost.
Education Technologies get a 9% increase including $250 million for a
new $2 billion 5 year programme aimed at putting cutting-edge
technologies in US schools.
On the National Security side there are small increases to support
development and deployment of technologies produced in the commercial
section which have military application. $327 million to help the
former Soviet Union dismantle cold war-era weapons and a 5% increase
to the Department of Energy’s Science-based Stockpile-Stewardship
Programme to negotiate and sign a test ban treaty.
Environmental Research gets $5.4 billion (up 5%) which includes $1.9
billion for global climate change. The National Science Foundation
and National Institutes of Health keep up with inflation with
increases of 3% and 4% respectively.
The overall R&D losers agency wise are NASA (flat, although Space
Station is fully funded, Energy (down 6% although renewable energy
and energy efficiency is up by 31%), Interior (down 6%). Defence is
flat but thats no surprise.
Summing up, S&T has done reasonably well as the administration moves
towards a balanced budget. However even Gibbons concedes the real
cuts will need to be made around the Millenium. What is certain is
that Clinton is placing his trust and money in "Applied Basic
Research/Industry programmes" which he thinks will create new jobs
and new industries. And it is this message which he will present to
the voters. See next item for a full breakdown of the figures.

Dr Lane stated that of the total NSF budget request, which is just a
step ahead of inflation, roughly 56% supports science and engineering
research; 20% supports improvements in science education, engineering
and math; 20% supports research facilities and 4% administration and
management. Also contained within the budget is the recommendation
for the elimination of the Academic Research Infrastructure Programme.
This programme, which supports the upgrading and renovation of
university laboratories will now fall to local or state Governments to
fund.
Lane said NSF’s FY97 budget request places emphasis in three major
areas: -
Ee Developing a balanced structure that spans the frontiers of
knowledge.
° Linking discovery and learning.
° Working in partnerships
