                                 H.R.   3210
                            SECRET Act of 2017

  As ordered reported by the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform
                                on July 19, 2017


H.R. 3210 would require the National Background Investigations Bureau (NBIB), within
the Office of Personnel Management (OPM), to provide three reports to the Congress.
The reports would cover information about the backlog in federal investigations for
security clearances, the process for conducting security clearances for the Executive
Office of the President, and the costs to NBIB and the Department of Defense for such
investigations.

Information from OPM indicates that the information required for those reports is already
compiled for other efforts. Thus, CBO estimates it would cost less than $500,000 over the
2018-2022 period to prepare the reports; such spending would be subject to the
availability of appropriated funds.

Enacting H.R. 3210 would not affect direct spending or revenues; therefore, pay-as-you-
go procedures do not apply.

CBO  estimates that enacting H.R. 3210 would not increase net direct spending or
on-budget deficits in any of the four consecutive 10-year periods beginning in 2028.

H.R. 3210 contains no intergovernmental or private-sector mandates as defined in the
Unfunded Mandates  Reform Act and would impose no costs on state, local, or tribal
governments.

The CBO  staff contact for this estimate is Matthew Pickford. The estimate was approved
by H. Samuel Papenfuss, Deputy Assistant Director for Budget Analysis.
