H.R. 2166
Good Samaritan Search and Recovery Act of 2013
As ordered reported by the House Committee on Natural Resources on June 12, 2013
H.R. 2166 would authorize the Secretary of the Interior and the Secretary of Agriculture to
expedite access to federal lands for search and recovery missions conducted by eligible
individuals or organizations. Under the bill, entities conducting search and recovery
missions would not be considered federal employees or volunteers, and the federal
government would not be liable for the actions of such entities.
Based on information provided by the Department of the Interior and the Forest Service,
CBO expects that the costs of expediting access to federal lands for search and recovery
purposes would be minimal, and we estimate that implementing the legislation would have
no significant impact on the federal budget. Enacting H.R. 2166 would not affect direct
spending or revenues; therefore, pay-as-you-go procedures do not apply.
H.R. 2166 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 contacts for this estimate are Maggie Morrissey and Jeff LaFave. The
estimate was approved by Theresa Gullo, Deputy Assistant Director for Budget Analysis.
