                     Billy Frank  Jr. Tell Your  Story Act

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


 H.R. 2270 would designate the wildlife refuge on the Nisqually River Delta in the State of
Washington as The Billy Frank Jr. Nisqually National Wildlife Refuge.

The bill also would require the Secretary of the Interior, in consultation with local Native
American tribes, to establish the Medicine Creek Treaty National Memorial at the location
of the signing of the 1854 Medicine Creek Treaty, which established reservation land as
well as the right to fish for tribes in the Puget Sound area.

Based on information from the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, CBO estimates that
implementing the legislation would cost less than $500,000 over the over the 2016-2020
period, any such spending would be subject to the availability of appropriated funds.
Enacting H.R. 2270 would not affect direct spending or revenues; therefore, pay-as-you-go
procedures do not apply.

CBO  estimates that enacting H.R. 2270 would not increase net direct spending or
on-budget deficits in any of the four consecutive 10-year period beginning in 2026.

H.R. 2270 contains no intergovernmental mandates as defined in the Unfunded Mandates
Reform Act and would impose no costs on state, local, or tribal governments.

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