                                   S. 822
Brownfields   Utilization, Investment, and  Local Development Act of 2017

    As ordered reported by the Senate Committee on Environment and Public Works
                               on July 12, 2017


S. 822 would authorize the appropriation of $250 million annually over the 2018-2020
period for the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to provide grants to clean up
brownfields and to support state brownfield programs. (Brownfields are properties where
the presence, or potential presence, of a hazardous substance complicates the use or
redevelopment of the property.) Assuming appropriation of the authorized amounts, CBO
estimates that implementing S. 822 would cost $702 million over the 2018-2022 period;
the remainder would be spent in years after 2022.

Enacting S. 822 would not affect direct spending or revenues; therefore, pay-as-you-go
procedures do not apply.

CBO  estimates that enacting S. 822 would not increase net direct spending or on-budget
deficits in any of the four consecutive 10-year periods beginning in 2028.

S. 822 contains no intergovernmental or private-sector mandates as defined in the
Unfunded Mandates Reform Act (UMRA)  and would impose no costs on state, local, or
tribal governments.
