                                   S.  1436
                      Nevada   Native Nations   Land  Act

  As ordered reported by the Senate Committee on Indian Affairs on October 21, 2015


S. 1436 would authorize the following land conveyances between the federal government
and various tribes in Nevada:

   *  19,094 acres of land managed by the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) to be
      held in trust for the benefit of the Fort McDermitt Paiute and Shoshone Tribe;

   *  82 acres of land managed by the United States Forest Service to be held in trust for
      the benefit of the Shoshone Paiute Tribes of the Duck Valley Indian Reservation;

   *  941 acres of land managed by BLM to be held in trust for the benefit of the Summit
      Lake Paiute Tribe;

   *  13,434 acres of land managed by BLM to be held in trust for the benefit of the
      Reno-Sparks Indian Colony;

   *  6,357 acres of land managed by BLM to be held in trust for the benefit of the
      Pyramid Lake Paiute Tribe; and

   *  31,229 acres of land managed by BLM to be held in trust for the benefit of the
      Duckwater Shoshone  Tribe.

Based on information from the affected agencies, CBO estimates that implementing the
legislation would have no significant effect on the federal budget. Under current law, CBO
expects that programs to develop federally owned natural resources on some of the lands to
be conveyed will generate receipts, particularly from grazing permits. Thus, CBO
estimates that conveying those lands would reduce offsetting receipts (which are treated as
increases in direct spending); however, we estimate that such losses would be insignificant.

Because enacting S. 1436 would increase direct spending, pay-as-you-go procedures
apply. Enacting S. 1436 would not affect revenues. CBO estimates that enacting S. 1436
would not increase net direct spending or on-budget deficits by more than $5 billion in any
of the next four consecutive 10-year periods beginning in 2026.
