Premium   Download PDF Now (1 page)
Congress 116th
Date Requested July 29, 2020
Requested By House Committee on Natural Resources
Date Sent Oct. 30, 2020
Description:
H.R. 4299 would authorize the appropriation of $30 million annually over the 2020-2024 period for the United States Geological Survey to implement the National Geological and Geospatial Data Preservation Program. In 2020, $2 million was allocated to that program. For this estimate, CBO assumes that H.R. 4299 will be enacted near the start of fiscal year 2021. Using historical spending patterns for the program, CBO estimates implementing H.R.  4299 would cost $115 million over the 2021-2025 period and $3 million after 2025. The costs of the legislation, detailed in Table 1, fall within budget function 300 (natural resources and environment).
