S. 757
Multispecies Habitat Conservation Plan Implementation Act
As ordered reported by the Senate Committee on Energy and Natural Resources
on May 16, 2013
S. 757 would give the city of Mesquite, Nevada, the exclusive right to purchase certain
federal lands administered by the Bureau of Land Management (BLM). The bill also would
authorize BLM and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) to spend proceeds from
those sales on specified activities. Based on information provided by the affected agencies,
CBO estimates that implementing S. 757 would increase direct spending by $3 million in
2022; therefore, pay-as-you-go procedures apply. Enacting S. 757 would not affect
revenues.
Based on information from BLM and the city of Mesquite, CBO expects that, under current
law, the affected lands would be sold under the Federal Land Policy and Management Act
(FLPMA). CBO estimates that proceeds from those sales would total about $3 million in
2022. Under FLPMA, 96 percent of all proceeds from land sales are deposited in the U.S.
Treasury. Because S. 757 would authorize BLM and USFWS to spend those proceeds,
without further appropriation, to implement plans to conserve multispecies habitat in
Nevada and to carry out certain other activities, CBO estimates that implementing the bill
would increase direct spending.
The Statutory Pay-As-You-Go Act of 2010 establishes budget-reporting and enforcement
procedures for legislation affecting direct spending or revenues. S. 757 would increase
direct spending; therefore, pay-as-you-go procedures apply. The net budgetary changes
that are subject to pay-as-you-go procedures are shown in the following table.
