equipment, moving and operating expenses. Requirements in FY 1988 are currently projected at approximately $6,500,000. 

The balance of the projected requirements, approximately $5,800,000 or 21%, are associated with basic administrative and technical support tasks. The pending FY 1983 budget before Congress contains approximately $1,700,000 for improvements and modernization to security and protection services of the Institution. If appropriated, the resources will be used to initiate a ten-year plan to upgrade the Institution's basic systems. An additional amount of approximately $800,000 is being sought in FY 1984 for these purposes. 

Other ares for which some added support requirements are projected to be needed include information management, personnel administration, legal services, accounting and auditing. It will also be necessary to continue to strengthen the ability of the craft and maintenance shops to provide basic and timely support to the facilities and programs of the Institution.

While gross amounts provided from nonappropriated trust fund activities are expected to increase significantly during FY 1984-88, net funds available for program support after expenses are projected to increase only moderately. The state of the nation's economy in future years, of course, may affect the Institution's trust operations. Current estimates for gross and net income from unrestricted general purpose trust funds, the primary source of which are the auxiliary activities, for FY 1984 and FY 1988 are shown in the following table.
