The FY2027 President's Budget requests $5.0M for Survey and Design - Vessels, Boats, and Aircraft, within Homeland Security's Procurement, Construction, and Improvements account. That is down 44% on the FY2026 figure of $9.0M, which is a continuing-resolution annualized figure, not an enacted appropriation.
FY2025–FY2027
| Fiscal year | Basis | Amount |
|---|---|---|
| FY2025 | enacted | $9.0M |
| FY2026 | CR annualized | $9.0M |
| FY2027 | request | $5.0M |
The prior-year column is a CR annualized figure — the rate a continuing resolution funds at, not an enacted appropriation. The two are different numbers and are not interchangeable. Bases are separate columns and are never summed into one figure.
Homeland Security 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 Homeland Security's discretionary request, not a total of the parsed lines above, and this page never adds the two together.
What this funds
Funds multi-year engineering survey and design work in direct support of emerging cutter, boat, and aircraft acquisitions and SLEP. Preliminary survey and design work is essential to properly plan and scope acquisitions and sustainment availabilities, such as MMA, Mission Effectiveness Projects, and SLEP. As in-service vessels, boats, and aircraft continue to age, this program conducts detailed hull/airframe condition surveys, along with engineering design work useful in identifying and planning future projects.
