                                 H.R.   4685
            Tule  River Indian  Reservation   Land  Trust,  Health,
                      and  Economic Development Act

  As ordered reported by the House Committee on Natural Resources on June 15, 2016


H.R. 4685 would take into trust, for the benefit of the Tule River Indian Tribe,
approximately 34 acres of federal land located in Tulare County, California, that is
administered by the United States Bureau of Land Management (BLM). The bill would
direct the Secretary of the Interior to consider applications to continue using the land from
individuals claiming to have valid existing rights to the lands being taken into trust.
H.R 4685 also would prohibit certain types of gaming on those lands.

CBO  estimates that enacting H.R. 4685 would have no significant effect on the federal
budget. We estimate that any change in federal costs to manage lands affected by the bill
(which would be subject to appropriation) would be insignificant.

Under current law, CBO expects that the affected lands could generate income from
right-of-way permits; thus, CBO estimates that taking those lands into trust could reduce
offsetting receipts, which are recorded as reductions in direct spending. Because the bill
could increase direct spending, pay-as-you-go procedures apply; however, based on
information from BLM detailing the fees collected for rights of way on those lands, CBO
estimates that any such effects would be negligible. Enacting H.R. 4685 would not affect
revenues.

CBO  estimates that enacting H.R. 4685 would not increase net direct spending or
on-budget deficits in any of the four consecutive 10-year periods beginning in 2027.

H.R. 4685 contains no intergovernmental or private-sector mandates as defined in the
Unfunded Mandates  Reform Act.

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