handle is hein.congrec/cbo10893 and id is 1 raw text is: OCONGRESSIONAL BUDGET OFFICE U.S. Congress Washington, DC 20515 Douglas W. Elmendorf, Director September 18, 2012 Honorable David Dreier Chairman Committee on Rules U.S. House of Representatives Washington, DC 20515 Dear Mr. Chairman: As you requested, the Congressional Budget Office has prepared the following cost estimate for H.R. 3409, the Coal Miner Employment and Domestic Energy Infrastructure Protection Act, as posted on the Web site of the House Committee on Rules (Committee Print 112-32). CBO estimates that implementing the bill would reduce future discretionary spending by $245 million over the 2013-2017 period, assuming that appropriations in those years were reduced accordingly. Such reductions would primarily stem from prohibiting the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) from regulating greenhouse gases. By Fiscal Year, in Millions of Dollars 2013- 2013 2014 2015 2016 2017 2017 CHANGES IN SPENDING SUBJECT TO APPROPRIATION Estimated Authorization Level -53 -58 -59 -60 -61 -291 Estimated Outlays -18 -49 -59 -59 -60 -245 H.R. 3409 contains intergovernmental mandates as defined in the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act (UMRA) by expanding an existing preemption of state laws that regulate greenhouse gases from motor vehicles and requiring states to notify EPA whether they will adopt and implement a permit program for coal combustion residuals (CCR). Although the preemption would limit the application of state law, CBO estimates that it would impose no duty on state governments that would result in additional spending.
