2010 President's Budget

http://www.whitehouse.gov/omb/budget/fy2010/assets/trs.pdf

Under reductions and terminations (savings are for 1 year, not overall);

Brownfields Economic Development Initiative $10 Million saved.
C-17 Strategic Airlift Aircraft $91 Million spent, I guess they are replacing them??
California Diesel Emissions Reduction Grants, $15 Million saved. Not a very green thing to do?
Civic Education, $31 Million saved.
CSAR-X Helicopter, $144 Million saved.
Delta Health Initiative, $26 Million saved, but Mississippi is pissed.
Denali Access, $6 Million saved on another Alaskan road to nowhere.
Denali Commission, $20 Million saved. Last year they got the money, even though HHS/HRSA didn't want it (there was another $3 Million for Job training saved too).
Emergency Operations Centers (DHS), $35 Million saved. This was for the "so called" interment camps that were popping up around the country.
Environmental Infrastructure Construction (Army Corp's Of Engineers), $180 Million saved. Their web site is gone, so I can't see what their projects were.
F-22 Raptor, almost $3 Billion saved.

There are a lot more details at the link above. I think a lot of the reductions are stripping out congrssional earmarks from the past.
