Abstract

<u>Purpose</u> <br>A. This chapter provides instructions applicable to programming and budget formulation for the Department's combined Program and Budget Review and congressional justification for the Defense Environmental Restoration Program appropriations (including munitions related responses at Formerly Used Defense Sites and closed sites at active installations).
