Lease fees collected from foreign governments by the Department for the International Chancery Center are deposited into an escrow account called the Chancery Development Trust Account. The funds are unavailable to the Department at time of deposit, and do not constitute expendable resources until funds are necessary for additional work on the Center project. The Chancery Development Trust account invests in six-month marketable Treasury bills issued at discount and redeemable for par at maturity. A corresponding liability for these amounts is reflected as Funds Held in Trust and Deposit Accounts.

Hurricane Katrina made landfall near New Orleans, Louisiana, on August 29, 2005. In response to the ensuing widespread devastation in the Gulf Coast region, the United States received a generous outpouring of assistance from foreign governments and other foreign entities. Under the International Coordination Support Annex of the National Response Plan, the Department, in collaboration with the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID), ?acts as the intermediary for foreign offers of assistance to the U.S. Government?? As called for in the Plan, the Department and USAID, ?work with other U.S. Government departments and agencies to respond appropriately to such requests? and to ?expedite delivery of assistance that is accepted.? The Department facilitated the consideration of offers of foreign assistance as well as the collection of donations of monetary assistance, which are being directed to the Department?s custodial Treasury deposit account pending transfer to entities assisting in the recovery efforts. Pledged monetary donations as of September 30, 2005 are not reflected in the Department?s financial statements due to the uncertainty of collection. The Department did not receive any in-kind contributions relating to Hurricane Katrina. A corresponding liability for the amount of monetary assistance collected by the Department as of September 30, 2005 is reflected as Funds Held in Trust and Deposit Accounts.
