H.R. 2413
Weather Forecasting Improvement Act of 2014
As revised and posted on the website of the House Committee on Science,
Space, and Technology on March 24, 2014
SUMMARY
H.R. 2413 would authorize appropriations totaling $360 million over the 2015-2017 period
for the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) to improve forecasting
of severe weather events. The bill also would authorize NOAA to carry out various other
activities related to weather forecasting and research.
Assuming appropriation of the authorized amounts, CBO estimates that implementing the
legislation would cost $356 million over the 2015-2019 period. Enacting H.R. 2413 would
not affect direct spending or revenues; therefore, pay-as-you-go procedures do not apply.
H.R. 2413 contains no intergovernmental or private-sector mandates as defined in the
Unfunded Mandates Reform Act (UMRA) and would impose no costs on state, local, or
tribal governments.
