S. 1943, Shiloh National Military Park Boundary Adjustment and Parker's Crossroads Battlefield Designation Act 1 (August 5, 2016)

handle is hein.congrec/cbo3116 and id is 1 raw text is: CONGRESSIONAL BUDGET OFFICE COST ESTIMATE August 5, 2016 S. 1943 Shiloh National Military Park Boundary Adjustment and Parker's Crossroads Battlefield Designation Act As ordered reported by the Senate Committee on Energy and Natural Resources on July 13, 2016 S. 1943 would revise the boundary of the Shiloh National Military Park in Mississippi to include three additional Civil War battlefield areas over approximately 2,100 acres. The bill stipulates that the National Park Service (NPS) may acquire the additional land through donation, with donated funds, with appropriated amounts, or through a land exchange. The bill also would designate Parker's Crossroads Battlefield in Henderson County, Tennessee, as an affiliated area of the National Park System and would direct the NPS to develop a management plan for the area. Based on recent sale prices of comparable tracts of land in the areas where land would be purchased, and information from the NPS, CBO estimates that implementing the legislation would cost $2 million to $5 million over the 2017-2021 period, assuming the land was acquired with appropriated funds over the next five years. Based on information from the NPS, the cost of developing the management plan required by the legislation would be insignificant. Because enacting S. 1943 would not affect direct spending or revenues, pay-as-you-go procedures do not apply. CBO estimates that enacting S. 1943 would not increase net direct spending or on-budget deficits in any of the four consecutive 10-year periods beginning in 2027. S. 1943 contains no intergovernmental or private-sector mandates as defined in the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act and would benefit the City of Parker's Crossroads and the Tennessee Historical Commission by authorizing federal assistance for the management of an historic battlefield. Any costs incurred by those entities under cooperative agreements with the NPS would result from participation in a voluntary federal program. On April 21, 2016, CBO transmitted a cost estimate for H.R. 87, the Shiloh National Military Park Boundary Adjustment and Parker's Crossroads Battlefield Designation Act, as ordered reported by the House Committee on Natural Resources on March 16, 2016.
