Notes: Components may not sum to totals because of rounding.

On September 4, 2015, CBO transmitted a cost estimate for H.R. 985, the Concrete Masonry products Research, Education, and Promotion Act of 2015, as ordered reported by the House
Committee on Energy and Commerce on July 29, 2015. The version of H.R. 985 passed by the House of Representatives is similar to the version ordered reported by the House
Committee on Energy and Commerce. Both versions of the legislation would establish the Concrete Masonry Products Board, upon approval of a referendum by producers of masonry
products made from concrete (CMP), such as cinder blocks. Funding for those activities would be derived from assessments on CMP manufacturers based on the number of masonry
units sold each year. However, the version passed by the House of Representatives includes a provision that would restrict the amount of money that the Concrete Masonry Products
Board is authorized to obligate in a given year over the 2017-2026 period. CBO's cost estimates for the two versions of the legislation reflect that difference.
