S. 2958 would authorize the appropriation of $5 million annually through 2028 for the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) to administer the Coastal Barrier Resources System (CBRS) and to map new coastal areas to add to the system. The bill also would codify 195 updated or new maps that define the boundaries of several geographic areas for incorporation into the CBRS. By changing those boundaries, the bill would, on net, add about 277,000 acres to the system (increasing the size of the CBRS by 8 percent).
