Citation Excerpt: 109th Congress, Conference Report 108-622, Pages 102-103. The conferees provide an additional $12,000,000 for M1A1 Transmission Maintenance. The conferees recognize that the Army is committed to address the transmission industrial base but remain concerned about the implementation and funding of the Transmission Enterprise Program. According to the Army's report to Congress on future plans to sustain the operational readiness of tank transmissions for the Abrams fleet, the funding shortfall to sustain the business base exceeds the additional funding provided. Therefore, the conferees direct the Department of the Army to develop a plan to sustain this industrial base through fiscal year 2005. This plan is to be submitted to the congressional defense committees before submission of the fiscal year 2006 budget request and include funding strategies to address this shortfall through the future years defense program.
