                          Desert Community Lands Act

    As ordered reported by the House Committee on Natural Resources on June 13, 2018


 H.R. 2365 would require the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) to convey, without
 consideration, up to 8,200 acres of federal land to several cities in California. At the
 request of the affected cities, BLM would be required to convey up to four parcels of land
 ranging in size from 80 acres to 4,630 acres to the cities of Twentynine Palms, Barstow,
 Victorville, and Apple Valley. Under the bill, BLM would be required to cover any
 administrative costs associated with completing the conveyances. Using information
 provided by the agency, CBO estimates that administering the conveyances would cost
 less than $500,000; such spending would be subject to the availability of appropriated
 funds.

 Enacting the bill could reduce offsetting receipts, which are treated as reductions in direct
 spending, from rentals associated with rights-of-way on each parcel; however, using
 information provided by BLM, CBO  estimates that any reduction in receipts would total
 less than $50,000 a year. Because enacting H.R. 2365 could affect direct spending pay-
 as-you-go procedures apply. Enacting the bill would not affect revenues.

 CBO  estimates that enacting H.R. 2365 would not significantly increase net direct
 spending or on-budget deficits in any of the four consecutive 10-year periods beginning
 in 2029.

 H.R. 2365 contains no intergovernmental or private-sector mandates as defined in the
 Unfunded  Mandates Reform Act.

 The CBO  staff contact for this estimate is Jeff LaFave. The estimate was reviewed by
 H. Samuel Papenfuss, Deputy Assistant Director for Budget Analysis.
