Pub. L. 104-99, tit. I, sec. 111

Sec. 111. Notwithstanding any other provision of this title of this Act, except section 106, whenever an Act listed in section 101 as passed by both the House and the Senate as of the date of enactment of this Act, does not include funding for an ongoing project or activity for which there is a budget request, or whenever an Act listed in section 101 has been passed by only the House or only the Senate as of the date of enactment of this Act, and an item funded in fiscal year 1995 is not included in the version passed by the one House, or whenever the rate for operations for an ongoing project or activity provided by section 101 for which there is a budget request would result in the project or activity being significantly reduced, the pertinent project or activity may be continued under the authority and conditions provided in the applicable appropriations Act for the fiscal year 1995 by increasing the rate for operations provided by section 101 to a rate for operations not to exceed one that provides the minimal level that would enable existing activities to continue. No new contracts or grants shall be awarded in excess of an amount that bears the same ratio to the rate for operations provided by this section as the number of days covered by this title of this Act bears to 366. For the purposes of this title of this Act, the minimal level means a rate for operations that is reduced from the current rate by 25 percent.
