Energy discretionary budget authority
From the OMB Public Budget Database — clean, summable, and the figure to cite for an agency total. It is the whole of Energy's discretionary request, not a total of the parsed lines above, and this page never adds the two together.
What this funds
Conducts weapons design, certification, and assessment to underpin science-based stockpile decisions — including the annual stockpile assessment — through assessment science, engineering, inertial confinement fusion, and advanced simulation and computing.
Extracted from Energy Programs, p. 17. Verbatim; nothing here is paraphrased.
