                                  H.R.   689
                       Bolts Ditch  Access  and Use  Act

    As ordered reported by the Senate Committee on Energy and Natural Resources
                               on March  30, 2017


H.R. 689 would require the Forest Service to provide a special use authorization to the
town of Minturn, Colorado, to allow the town to manage and maintain a headgate used to
divert water to Bolts Lake. Based on an analysis of information from the Forest Service,
CBO  estimates the enacting the legislation would increase offsetting receipts from annual
fees associated with the authorization by about $150 a year; therefore pay-as-you-go
procedures apply. Enacting the legislation would not affect revenues.

CBO  estimates that enacting H.R. 689 would not increase net direct spending or on-budget
deficits in any of the four consecutive 10-year periods beginning in 2028.

H.R. 689 contains no intergovernmental or private-sector mandates as defined in the
Unfunded Mandates  Reform Act and would benefit the town of Minturn, Colorado; it
would give the town easier access to the Bolts Ditch headgate so that it could repair and
maintain the town's water supply.

On April 7, 2017, CBO transmitted a cost estimate for S. 285, the Bolts Ditch Access and
Use Act, as ordered reported by the Senate Committee on Energy and Natural Resources
on March 30, 2017. H.R. 689 and S. 285 are similar and CBO's cost estimate for each piece
of legislation is 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.
