                                H.R. 3826
       Mount Hood Cooper Spur Land Exchange Clarification Act

         As ordered reported by the House Committee on Natural Resources
                              on March 16, 2016


H.R. 3826 would amend current law to modify the terms of a land exchange between the
Forest Service and the Mt. Hood Meadows ski area in Oregon. The bill would reduce the
amount of land the agency would be authorized to convey to the ski area from 120 acres to
107 acres. The bill also contains provisions aimed at expediting the exchange.

Based on information provided by the Forest Service, CBO estimates that implementing
the legislation would not affect the federal budget. Because CBO expects that enacting the
bill would not affect whether the exchange would occur or when it would take place, we
estimate that enacting the bill would not affect direct spending. Enacting the bill also would
not affect revenues. Therefore, pay-as-you-go procedures do not apply. CBO estimates that
enacting H.R. 3826 would not increase net direct spending or on-budget deficits in any of
the four consecutive 10-year periods beginning in 2027.

H.R. 3826 contains no intergovernmental or private-sector mandates as defined in the
Unfunded Mandates Reform Act.

On January 5, 2016, CBO transmitted a cost estimate for S. 2069, a bill to amend the
Omnibus Public Land Management Act of 2009 to modify provisions relating to certain
land exchanges in the Mt. Hood Wilderness in the State of Oregon, as ordered reported by
the Senate Committee on Energy and Natural Resources on November 19, 2015. H.R. 3826
and S. 2069 are similar, and CBO's estimates of the budgetary effects are the same.

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