Source: The FY2014-enacted amounts were taken from the joint explanatory statement to accompany P.L. 113-76, printed in the January 15, 2014, Congressional Record (pp. H507-H532). The FY2015 requested amounts were taken from H.Rept. 113-448. The FY2015 House-passed amounts were taken from the text of H.R. 4660 and H.Rept. 113-448. The Senate Committee-reported amounts were taken from S.Rept. 113-181. The FY2015-enacted amounts were taken from the Joint explanatory statement to accompany P.L. 113-235, printed in the December 12, 2014, Congressional Record (pp. H9342-H9363).

c. "Other Fishery Activities" includes funding for the Pacific Coastal Salmon Recovery, the Fisherman's Contingency Fund, and Fisheries Disaster Assistance (FY2014 only), and along with the negative subsidy for Fisheries Finance Program account.
d. "General Administration" includes General Administration, Salaries and Expenses; Justice Information Sharing Technology; Administrative Review and Appeals; and the Office of the Inspector General.
e. "Other legal activities" includes accounts for the Antitrust Division, Vaccine Injury Compensation Trust Fund, U.S. Trustee System Fund, Foreign Claims Settlement Commission, Fees and Expenses of Witnesses, Community Relations Service, and the Asset Forfeiture Fund.
