                                H.R.   1640
     Department of   Homeland Security Headquarters Consolidation
                         Accountability  Act of 2015

         As ordered reported by the House Committee on Homeland Security
                               on May 20, 2015


H.R. 1640 would require the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) to prepare a report
to the Congress on the DHS headquarters consolidation project within the national capital
region, including updated timelines and cost estimates. The bill also would require the
Government Accountability Office (GAO) to review the DHS estimates of project costs
and schedules and report its findings to the Congress.

Based on the cost of similar activities, CBO estimates that implementing H.R. 1640 would
cost less than $500,000, assuming the availability of appropriated funds. Much of the
information needed for the DHS and GAO reports has already been compiled. Because
enacting the legislation would not affect direct spending or revenues, pay-as-you-go
procedures do not apply.

H.R. 1640 contains no intergovernmental or private-sector mandates as defined in the
Unfunded Mandates Reform Act and would not affect the budgets of state, local, or tribal
governments.

The CBO  staff contact for this estimate is Mark Grabowicz. The estimate was approved by
H. Samuel Papenfuss, Deputy Assistant Director for Budget Analysis.
