                                     S. 1181
                  Good   Samaritan   Search  and  Recovery  Act

      As ordered reported by the Senate Committee on Energy and Natural Resources
                                 on March  8, 2018


 S. 1181 would require the Secretary of the Interior and the Secretary of Agriculture to
 expedite access to federal lands for search and recovery missions conducted by certain
 people or organizations. Under the bill, entities conducting such missions would not be
 considered federal employees or volunteers, and the federal government would not be
 liable for their actions.

 Using information provided by the Department of the Interior and the Forest Service,
 CBO  expects that the costs of expediting access to federal lands for search and recovery
 missions would be minimal and we estimate that implementing the legislation would
 have no significant effect on the federal budget.

 Enacting S. 1181 would not affect direct spending or revenues; therefore, pay-as-you-go
 procedures do not apply.

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

 S. 1181 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 approved by
 H. Samuel Papenfuss, Deputy Assistant Director for Budget Analysis.
