                                   S. 2916
  A bill to provide that the pueblo of Santa Clara may lease for 99 years
               certain restricted land, and for other purposes

      As ordered reported by the Senate Committee on Indian Affairs June 8, 2016


S. 2916 would authorize the pueblo of Santa Clara and the Ohkay Owingeh pueblo to lease
tribal lands for up to 99 years. In general, under current law, the tribes can lease tribal lands
to schools, businesses, and public entities for 25-year terms.

CBO estimates that implementing S. 2916 would have no significant impact on the federal
budget. Any additional proceeds from such leases would accrue to the owners of the land
and would have no effect on the federal budget. Enacting S. 2916 would not affect direct
spending or revenues; therefore, pay-as-you-go procedures would not apply.

CBO estimates that enacting S. 2916 would not increase net direct spending or on-budget
deficits in any of the four consecutive 10-year periods beginning in 2027.

S. 2916 contains no intergovernmental or private-sector mandates as defined in the
Unfunded Mandates Reform Act. The pueblo of Santa Clara and the Ohkay Owingeh
pueblo would benefit from provisions in the bill allowing them to lease land for up to
99 years, regardless of the trust status of the land.

The CBO staff contacts for this estimate are Robert Reese (for federal costs) and Rachel
Austin (for intergovernmental mandates). The estimate was approved by Theresa Gullo,
Assistant Director for Budget Analysis.
