S. 736, Alaska Subsistence Structure Protection Act of 2013 1 (June 11, 2013)

handle is hein.congrec/cbo11202 and id is 1 raw text is: CONGRESSIONAL BUDGET OFFICE COST ESTIMATE June 11, 2013 S. 736 Alaska Subsistence Structure Protection Act of 2013 As ordered reported by the Senate Committee on Energy and Natural Resources on May 16, 2013 S. 736 would establish a cap on the annual fee paid to the federal government by individuals who own certain structures (including cabins and temporary fishing facilities) on Forest Service lands in Alaska. Based on information provided by the Forest Service, CBO estimates that enacting the legislation would reduce offsetting receipts, which are treated as reductions in direct spending, by about $75,000 a year; therefore, pay-as-you-go procedures apply. Enacting the bill would not affect revenues. Under current law, owners of the 138 affected structures pay an annual fee to the federal government based on the fair market value of the occupied land. In 2013, those owners paid fees totaling about $110,000. Based on information provided by the Forest Service, CBO estimates that those owners would pay fees totaling about $35,000 a year in future years under the bill. Thus, we estimate that enacting S. 736 would reduce offsetting receipts by about $75,000 a year over the 2014-2023 period. The Statutory Pay-As-You-Go Act of 2010 establishes budget-reporting and enforcement procedures for legislation affecting direct spending or revenues. S. 736 would reduce offsetting receipts; therefore, pay-as-you-go procedures apply. The net budgetary changes that are subject to pay-as-you-go procedures are shown in the following table.
