H.R. 3844 would authorize the appropriation of $7 million through 2020 to establish the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) Foundation. Based on information provided by BLM, CBO estimates that implementing the legislation would cost $7 million over the 2017-2021 period, assuming appropriation of the authorized amounts.
Enacting the bill would not affect direct spending or revenues; therefore, pay-as-you-go procedures do not apply. CBO estimates that enacting H.R. 3844 would not increase net direct spending or on-budget deficits in any of the four consecutive 10-year periods beginning in 2027.
H.R. 3844 contains no intergovernmental or private-sector mandates as defined in the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act and would impose no costs on state, local, or tribal governments.
