H.R. 2611 would authorize funding for Fiscal Year 2010 and subsequent years for the Domestic Nuclear Detection Office in the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) to support the Securing the Cities Initiative, a program to detect illicit nuclear and radiological material in urban areas.

For each city that participated in the program in 2009, the bill would authorize the appropriation of $40 million for Fiscal Year 2010, $20 million for 2011, and at least $10 million for each subsequent year. H.R. 2611 would authorize the appropriation of such sums as may be necessary for each fiscal year to implement this program in at least two new areas.
