                                  H.R.  5089
   Strengthening   Local Transportation   Security  Capabilities Act of 2018

             As passed by the House of Representatives on March 22, 2018


SUMMARY

Under current law, the role of the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) in
safeguarding surface transportation systems, which are largely owned and operated by
state and local entities, primarily involves overseeing, coordinating, and regulating
security-related activities. (Surface transportation includes the four general modes of
land-based transportation: mass transit, freight rail, highway motor carrier, and pipeline.)
H.R. 5089 would authorize DHS to pursue efforts to enhance the security of such
systems.

Assuming appropriation of the necessary amounts, CBO estimates that implementing
H.R. 5089 would cost $21 million over the 2019-2022 period. Enacting the legislation
would not affect direct spending or revenues, therefore pay-as-you-go procedures do not
apply.

CBO  estimates that enacting H.R. 5089 would not increase net direct spending or on-
budget deficits in any of the four consecutive 10-year periods beginning in 2028.

H.R. 5089 contains no intergovernmental or private-sector mandates as defined in the
Unfunded Mandates Reform Act (UMRA).


ESTIMATED COST TO THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT

The estimated budgetary effect of H.R. 5089 is shown in the following table. The costs of
the legislation fall within budget function 400 (transportation).
