S. 491
Brownfields Utilization, Investment, and Local Development Act of 2013
As ordered reported by the Senate Committee on Environment and Public Works
on April 3, 2014
SUMMARY
S. 491 would authorize the appropriation of $250 million annually for 2015 and 2016 for
the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to provide brownfields cleanup grants and
programs. (Brownfields are properties where the presence, or potential presence, of a
hazardous substance complicates the expansion or redevelopment of the property.)
Assuming appropriation of the authorized amounts, CBO estimates that implementing
S. 491 would cost $500 million over the 2015-2019 period.
Pay-as-you-go procedures do not apply to this legislation because the bill would not
affect direct spending or revenues.
S. 491 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 effect of S. 491 is shown in the following table. The costs of this
legislation fall within budget function 300 (natural resources and environment).
