S. 271
Wallowa Forest Service Compound Conveyance Act
As ordered reported by the House Committee on Natural Resources
on February 29, 2012
S. 271 would direct the Forest Service to convey, without consideration, about 1 acre of
land and improvements in Oregon to the city of Wallowa. Based on information provided
by the Forest Service, CBO estimates that implementing the legislation would have no
significant net effect on the federal budget.
Enacting S. 271 would affect direct spending; therefore, pay-as-you-go procedures apply.
Because the affected land (and related structures) would probably have been sold under
existing authority, enacting the legislation would reduce offsetting receipts. However,
because the Forest Service can spend those receipts, the loss in receipts would be offset
by lower direct spending of a similar amount. (CBO estimates that the value of the land is
less than $500,000.) Enacting S. 271 would not affect revenues.
S. 271 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.
On July 28, 2011, CBO transmitted a cost estimate for S. 271, the Wallowa Forest
Service Compound Conveyance Act, as ordered reported by the Senate Committee on
Energy and Natural Resources on July 14, 2011. The two versions of the legislation are
similar, and the CBO cost estimates are the same.
The CBO staff contact for this estimate is Jeff LaFave. The estimate was approved by
Theresa Gullo, Deputy Assistant Director for Budget Analysis.
