S. 673 would amend the Miccosukee Reserved Area Act to add the Osceola Camp, a tract of land in the Everglades National Park in Florida, to the federally reserved area for the Miccosukee Tribe. Under the bill, the Osceola Camp would be subject to the tribe’s rights, responsibilities, and restrictions. The bill also would require the Department of the Interior to implement flood protection measures for structures in the camp within two years of enactment.

Based on information from the National Park Service, CBO expects that existing efforts to protect structures in the camp from flooding would fulfill the requirements in the bill. On that basis, CBO expects that implementing S. 673 would have insignificant costs over the 2025-2030 period. Any related spending would be subject to the availability of appropriated funds.
