S. 609
San Juan County Federal Land Conveyance Act
As ordered reported by the Senate Committee on Energy and Natural Resources
on May 16, 2013
S. 609 would authorize the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) to sell certain federal
lands located in San Juan County, New Mexico. Based on information provided by the
agency, CBO estimates that implementing the bill would have a negligible impact on the
federal budget. Enacting the legislation would increase offsetting receipts and associated
direct spending; therefore, pay-as-you-go procedures apply. However, CBO estimates that
those changes would have no significant impact on future budget deficits. Enacting S. 609
would not affect revenues.
S. 609 would authorize BLM to sell 19 acres of federal land to private landowners. The bill
would require the landowners to pay fair market value for the property. Based on
information provided by BLM, CBO estimates that proceeds from the sale of the affected
lands would increase offsetting receipts by about $300,000. Under the bill, BLM would be
authorized to retain and spend those proceeds, without further appropriation, to acquire
other lands. In addition, the bill would require the landowners to pay for the required
survey and to cover any administrative costs associated with the sale.
S. 609 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.
The CBO staff contact for this estimate is Jeff LaFave. The estimate was approved by
Theresa Gullo, Deputy Assistant Director for Budget Analysis.
