S. 2876 would direct the National Park Service to study the feasibility of designating 3,664 miles of routes traveled by Lieutenant Zebulon Pike—extending from Missouri, through portions of Kansas, Nebraska, Colorado, New Mexico, and Texas, and ending in Louisiana—as a national historic trail.
Based on the cost of studies of similar scope, CBO estimates that implementing S. 2876 would cost about $1 million over the 2019-2023 period; such spending would be subject to the availability of appropriated funds.
Enacting S. 2876 would not affect direct spending or revenues; therefore, pay-as-you-go procedures do not apply.
CBO estimates that enacting S. 2876 would not increase net direct spending or on-budget deficits in any of the four consecutive 10-year periods beginning in 2029.
S. 2876 contains no intergovernmental or private-sector mandates as defined in the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act.
