Premium   Download PDF Now (3 pages)
Congress 114th
Date Requested Feb. 26, 2015
Requested By Senate Committee on Commerce, Science, and Transportation
Date Sent May 22, 2015
Description:

H.R. 34 would amend and reauthorize the Tsunami Warning and Education Act. The bill would authorize appropriations totaling $162 million over the 2016-2021 period for the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) to carry out activities under that act. Based on information from NOAA and assuming appropriation of the authorized amounts, CBO estimates that implementing the legislation would cost $121 million over the 2016-2020 period and $41 million after 2020. Because enacting H.R. 34 would not affect direct spending or revenues, pay-as-you-go procedures do not apply.

H.R. 34 contains no intergovernmental or private-sector mandates as defined in the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act (UMRA).
