Description:
S. 501 would designate two segments of the East Rosebud Creek in Carbon County, Montana, as components of the Wild and Scenic Rivers System. Under the legislation, the Forest Service would administer the river segments. Based on an analysis of information provided by the Forest Service about typical costs involved in administering such river segments, CBO estimates that implementing the bill would cost less than $500,000. Such spending, which CBO expects would begin one year after the designation occurs, would be subject to the availability of appropriated funds.
Enacting S. 501 would not affect direct spending or revenues; therefore, pay-as-you-go procedures do not apply. CBO estimates that enacting S. 501 would not increase net direct spending or on-budget deficits in any of the four consecutive 10-year periods beginning in 2028.
S. 501 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.
