H.R. 520, Buffalo Soldiers in the National Parks Study Act 1 (May 2, 2013)

handle is hein.congrec/cbo11057 and id is 1 raw text is: CONGRESSIONAL BUDGET OFFICE COST ESTIMATE May 2, 2013 H.R. 520 Buffalo Soldiers in the National Parks Study Act As ordered reported by the House Committee on Natural Resources on April 24, 2013 H.R. 520 would require the National Park Service (NPS) to conduct a study of alternatives for honoring the Buffalo Soldiers (members of several African-American regiments within the U.S. Army established after the Civil War) in their role in the development of the National Park System. The U.S. Army, including regiments of Buffalo Soldiers, was responsible for protecting national parks before the National Park Service was established. Based on information from the NPS and assuming the availability of appropriated funds, CBO estimates that conducting the study would cost about $400,000 over the next three years. Enacting H.R. 520 would not affect direct spending or revenues; therefore, pay-as-you-go procedures do not apply. H.R. 520 contains no intergovernmental or private-sector mandates as defined in the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act and would not affect the budgets of state, local, or tribal governments. The CBO staff contact for this estimate is Martin von Gnechten. The estimate was approved by Theresa Gullo, Deputy Assistant Director for Budget Analysis.
