                                 H.R.   2212
A  bill to take certain Federal lands  located in Lassen  County,   California,
       into trust for the benefit of the Susanville  Indian Rancheria,
                           and  for other  purposes

          As ordered reported by the House Committee on Natural Resources
                               on October 8, 2015


H.R. 2212 would require the Secretary of the Interior to take 300 acres of federal lands in
California into trust for the benefit of the Susanville Indian Rancheria. The bill also would
prohibit certain gaming activities on the affected lands. CBO estimates that implementing
the bill would have no significant effect on the federal budget.

Based on information from the Department of the Interior, CBO estimates the affected
lands will generate receipts of about $2,000 a year from leasing rights-of-way. Because
transferring the affected lands to the Rancheria would reduce offsetting receipts by that
amount (such receipts are treated as reductions in direct spending), pay-as-you-go
procedures apply. Enacting the bill would not affect revenues.

CBO  estimates that enacting H.R. 2212 would not increase on-budget deficits or net
direct spending by more than $5 billion in any of the four consecutive 10-year periods
beginning in 2026.

H.R. 2212 contains no intergovernmental or private-sector mandates as defined in the
Unfunded Mandates  Reform Act and would benefit the tribe.

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