H.R. 957
American Soda Ash Competitiveness Act
As ordered reported by the House Committee on Natural Resources on May 15, 2013
SUMMARY
H.R. 957 would require the Department of the Interior (DOI) to charge a 2 percent royalty
on the value of soda ash and certain related minerals produced on federal lands for a
five-year period following enactment of the bill. That rate would be lower than the average
rate expected under current law, which is about 6 percent over that period. As a result, CBO
estimates that implementing H.R. 957 would reduce net federal offsetting receipts from
soda ash royalties by $80 million over the 2014-2018 period; therefore, pay-as-you-go
procedures apply. Enacting H.R. 957 would not affect revenues.
H.R. 957 contains no intergovernmental or private-sector mandates as defined in the
Unfunded Mandates Reform Act (UMRA).
ESTIMATED COST TO THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT
The estimated budgetary impact of H.R. 957 is shown in the following table. The costs of
