S. 2777
Surface Transportation Board Reauthorization Act of 2014
As ordered reported by the Senate Committee on Commerce, Science, and Transportation
on September 17, 2014
SUMMARY
S. 2777 would authorize the programs of the Surface Transportation Board (STB),
establish the STB as an independent government agency outside the auspices of the
Department of Transportation (DOT), and authorize other changes in the agency's
operations. Based on information from the DOT, CBO estimates that implementing the bill
would cost $164 million over the 2015-2019 period, assuming the appropriation of the
amounts authorized and estimated to be necessary.
Enacting S. 2777 would not affect direct spending or revenues; therefore, pay-as-you-go
procedures do not apply.
S. 2777 contains no intergovernmental or private-sector mandates as defined in the
Unfunded Mandates Reform Act (UMRA) and would not affect the budgets of state, local,
or tribal governments.
ESTIMATED COST TO THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT
The estimated budgetary effect of S. 2777 is shown in the following table. The costs of this
legislation fall within budget function 400 (transportation).
