SUMMARY

S. 826 would amend and reauthorize various programs conducted by the U.S. Fish and
Wildlife Service (USFWS) related to the conservation of wildlife. The bill also would
require various agencies to carry out certain activities to manage invasive species. Finally,
the bill would establish prize competitions to promote the development of strategies to
enhance wildlife conservation.

Based on information from the affected agencies, CBO estimates that implementing the
legislation would cost $607 million over the 2018-2022 period and $46 million after 2022,
assuming appropriation of the authorized and necessary amounts. Enacting S. 826 would
not affect direct spending or revenues; therefore, pay-as-you-go procedures do not apply.

CBO  estimates that enacting S. 826 would not increase net direct spending or on-budget
deficits in any of the four consecutive 10-year periods beginning in 2028.

S. 826 contains no intergovernmental or private-sector mandates as defined in the
Unfunded Mandates Reform Act (UMRA)   and would impose no costs on state, local, or
tribal governments.
