As promised, the JES for H.R. 1105 is now available on ACW. To quote the first three opening paragraphs of the JES:

“Following is an explanation of the Omnibus Appropriations Act, 2009, including
disclosure of congressional earmarks and congressionally directed spending items as
defined in clause 9 of rule XXI of the Rules of the House of Representatives and rule
XLIV of the Standing Rules of the Senate.

Section 4 of the Act specifies that this explanatory statement shall have the same
effect with respect to the allocation of funds and implementation of this legislation as if it
were a joint explanatory statement of a committee of conference.

The Omnibus Appropriations Act includes fiscal year 2009 appropriations
encompassing 9 regular annual appropriations bills, each in a separate division, plus a
10th division including further provisions relating to the Department of Homeland
Security and other agencies.”
