        American   Space Situational Awareness   and  Framework for

SUMMARY

H.R. 6226 would direct the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) and
the Department of Commerce (DOC) to implement programs in space situational
awareness and traffic management. CBO estimates that implementing H.R. 6226 would
cost $127 million over the 2019-2023 period, assuming appropriation of the authorized
amounts.

Enacting H.R. 6226 could affect direct spending; therefore, pay-as-you-go procedures
apply. The bill would authorize DOC to charge user fees, which would be recorded in the
budget as reductions in direct spending. How, when, or whether the proposed fees would
be collected is unclear; as a result, CBO has no basis to estimate the bill's effect on direct
spending. The bill would not affect revenues.

CBO  estimates that enacting H.R. 6226 would not increase net direct spending or on-
budget deficits in any of the four consecutive 10-year periods beginning in 2029.

H.R. 6226 contains no intergovernmental or private-sector mandates as defined in the
Unfunded Mandates Reform Act (UMRA).


ESTIMATED COST TO THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT

The estimated budgetary effect of H.R. 6226 is shown in the following table. The costs of
the legislation fall within budget functions 250 (general science, space and technology)
and 370 (commerce and housing credit).
