The Advanced Technology Program(ATP) was created by P.L. 100-418, the
Omnibus Trade and Competitiveness Act of 1988, to encourage public-private
cooperation in the development of pre-competitive technologies with broad
application across industries. Administered by the National Institute of
Standards and Technology(NIST), a laboratory of the Department of Commerce,
this activity has been targeted for elimination as a means to cut federal
spending. However, strong support by the Clinton Administration led to
continued ATP funding in FY1997 and FY1998, although at redued levels.
Appropriations for FY1999 were 3% above the previous year; in FY2000
funding decreased 28% to $142.6 million. In FY2001, the President requested
a 23% increase in support for ATP while the original appropriations bill
passed by the House included no financing for the program. However, P.L.
106-553 appropriated $145.7 million for ATP, 2% morethan the previous year.
The FY2002 budget submitted by President Bush suspends granting new awards
pending an evaluation of the program and provides $13 million only to
support on-going project commitments.
