                                   S. 329
 Lower  Farmington River and Salmon Brook Wild and Scenic River Act

        As reported by the Senate Committee on Energy and Natural Resources
                             on December 16, 2015


S. 329 would designate segments of the Lower Farmington Rivers and Salmon Brook in
Connecticut as components of the National Wild and Scenic Rivers System. Under the
legislation, the National Park Service (NPS) would administer the river segments in
partnership with an advisory committee composed of local representatives. Based on the
cost of similar management partnerships in the region, CBO estimates that NPS would
provide about $170,000 annually to the advisory committee to manage the river segments.
Thus, CBO estimates that implementing the bill would cost about $1 million over the
2016-2020 period; such spending would be subject to the availability of appropriated
funds.

Enacting S. 329 would not affect direct spending or revenues; therefore, pay-as-you-go
procedures do not apply. CBO estimates that enacting S. 329 would not increase net direct
spending or on-budget deficits in any of the four consecutive 10-year period beginning in
2026.

S. 329 contains no intergovernmental or private-sector 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.
