                                  S. 2143
  A bill to provide for the authority for the successors and assigns of the
  Starr-Camargo Bridge Company to maintain and operate a toll bridge
    across the Rio Grande near Rio Grande City, Texas, and for other
                                 purposes.

    As ordered reported by the Senate Committee on Environment and Public Works
                             on January 20, 2016


Under current law, the Starr-Camargo Bridge Company has the authority to operate a
private toll-bridge between the United States and Mexico through 2032. S. 2143 would
permanently extend the authority for the Starr-Camargo Bridge Company or its successors
to operate such a bridge and to expand the number of lanes on that bridge.

The Starr-Camargo Bridge Company is privately-owned and does not receive any federal
or state assistance and does not issue any tax-exempt debt. As a result, CBO estimates that
enacting S. 2143 would not affect direct spending or revenues; therefore, pay-as-you-go
procedures do not apply.

CBO estimates that enacting S. 2143 would not increase net direct spending or on-budget
deficits in any of the four consecutive 10-year period beginning in 2027.

The bill 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 Sarah Puro. The estimate was approved by
H. Samuel Papenfuss, Deputy Assistant Director for Budget Analysis.
