The word ‘‘agency’’ is substituted for ‘‘officer or
agency of the Federal Government or by any Govern-
ment corporation’’ and ‘‘agency or instrumentality of
the United States’’ because of section 101 of the revised
title, for consistency, and because a Government cor-
poration is an ‘‘instrumentality of the United States
Government’’. The word ‘‘establish’’ is substituted for
‘‘created, organized’’ to eliminate unnecessary words.
The words ‘‘on or after December 6, 1945’’ are omitted
as executed. The words ‘‘law of the United States’’ are
substituted for ‘‘Act of Congress’’ for consistency.
§ 9103. Budgets of wholly owned Government
corporations
(a) Each wholly owned Government corpora-
tion shall prepare and submit each year to the
President a business-type budget in a way, and
before a date, the President prescribes by regu-
lation for the budget program.
(b) The budget program for each wholly owned
Government corporation shall—
(1) contain estimates of the financial condi-
tion and operations of the corporation for the
current and following fiscal years and the con-
dition and results of operations in the last fis-
cal year;
(2) contain statements of financial condi-
tion, income and expense, and sources and use
of money, an analysis of surplus or deficit, and
additional statements and information to
make known the financial condition and oper-
ations of the corporation, including estimates
of operations by major activities, administra-
tive expenses, borrowings, the amount of
United States Government capital that will be
returned to the Treasury during the fiscal
year, and appropriations needed to restore
capital impairments; and
(3) provide for emergencies and contin-
gencies and otherwise be flexible so that the
corporation may carry out its activities.
(c) The President shall submit the budget pro-
grams submitted by wholly owned Government
corporations (as changed by the President) as
part of the budget submitted to Congress under
section 1105 of this title. The President there-
after may submit changes in a budget program
of a corporation at any time.

In subsection (a), the word ‘‘President’’ is substituted
for ‘‘Office of Management and Budget’’ because sec-
tions 101 and 102(a) of Reorganization Plan No. 2 of 1970
(eff. July 1, 1970, 84 Stat. 2085) designated the Bureau of
the Budget as the Office of Management and Budget
and transferred all functions of the Bureau to the
President. The words ‘‘in a way, and before a date, the
President prescribes by regulation for the budget pro-
gram’’ are substituted for ‘‘under such rules and regu-
lations as the President may establish as to the date of
submission, the form and content, the classifications of
data, and the manner in which such budget program
shall be prepared and presented’’ to eliminate unneces-
sary words.
In subsection (b), before clause (1), the words ‘‘budget
program’’ are substituted for ‘‘budget program shall be
a business-type budget, or plan of operation’’ for con-
sistency and to eliminate unnecessary words. In clause
(1), the words ‘‘actual’’ and ‘‘completed’’ are omitted as
surplus. In clause (2), the words ‘‘as are necessary or
desirable’’, ‘‘types of’’, ‘‘together with’’, and ‘‘funds’’
are omitted as surplus. In clause (3), the words ‘‘as au-
thorized by law’’ are omitted as surplus.
In subsection (c), the words ‘‘as changed’’ are sub-
stituted for ‘‘as modified, amended, or revised’’ to
eliminate unnecessary words. The word ‘‘submit’’ is
substituted for ‘‘transmitted’’ for consistency. The
word ‘‘annual’’ is omitted as surplus. The word ‘‘there-
after’’ is added for clarity. The text of 31:848 (last par.)
is omitted as unnecessary.
§ 9104. Congressional action on budgets of wholly
owned Government corporations
(a) Congress shall—
(1) consider budget programs for wholly
owned Government corporations the President
submits;
(2) make necessary appropriations author-
ized by law;
(3) make corporate financial resources avail-
able for operating and administrative ex-
penses; and

**(a) Findings** The Congress finds and declares that—
(1) Essential rail service in the midwest and northeast region of the United States is provided by railroads which are today insolvent and attempting to undergo reorganization under the Bankruptcy Act.
(2) This essential rail service is threatened with cessation or significant curtailment because of the inability of the trustees of such railroads to formulate acceptable plans for reorganization. This rail service is operated over rail properties which were acquired for a public use, but which have been permitted to deteriorate and now require extensive rehabilitation and modernization.
(3) The public convenience and necessity require adequate and efficient rail service in this region and throughout the Nation to meet the needs of commerce, the national defense, the environment, and the service requirements of passengers, United States mail, shippers, States and their political subdivisions, and consumers.
(4) Continuation and improvement of essential rail service in this region is also necessary to preserve and maintain adequate national rail services and an efficient national rail transportation system.
(5) Rail service and rail transportation offer economic and environmental advantages with respect to land use, air pollution, noise levels, energy efficiency and conservation, resource allocation, safety, and cost per ton-mile of movement to such extent that the preservation and maintenance of adequate and efficient rail service is in the national interest.
(6) These needs cannot be met without substantial action by the Federal Government.
**(b) Purposes** It is therefore declared to be the purpose of Congress in this chapter to provide for—
(1) the identification of a rail service system in the midwest and
