                                  H.R.  4895
         Medgar   and  Myrlie  Evers  Home   National Monument Act

         As reported by the Senate Committee on Energy and Natural Resources
                              on November 15, 2018


H.R. 4895 would establish the Medgar and Myrlie Evers Home National Monument in
Jackson, Mississippi. Under the bill, the site would become a unit of the National Park
System and would be owned and operated by the National Park Service (NPS). The bill
would direct the NPS to acquire the Medgar Evers home by means of donation, purchase
using donated or appropriated funds, or through a land exchange. Based on the
experience of creating other system units, CBO expects that the monument would not be
formally established for several years.

Using information from the NPS on the costs for operating new system units, CBO
estimates that the agency would incur about $200,000 annually in administrative costs in
its initial years. The act also would require the NPS to develop a general management
plan for the monument. Based on the costs of similar tasks, CBO estimates that
developing the plan would cost less than $500,000. In total, CBO estimates that
implementing H.R. 4895 would cost about $1 million over the 2019-2023 period; such
spending would be subject to the availability of appropriated funds.

Enacting H.R. 4895 would not affect direct spending or revenues; therefore, pay-as-you-
go procedures do not apply.

CBO  estimates that enacting H.R. 4895 would not increase net direct spending or on-
budget deficits in any of the four consecutive 10-year periods beginning in 2029.

H.R. 4895 contains no intergovernmental or private-sector mandates as defined in the
Unfunded Mandates Reform Act.

On April 5, 2018, CBO transmitted a cost estimate for H.R. 4895, the Medgar Evers
Home  National Monument Act, as ordered reported by the House Committee on Natural
Resources on February 14, 2018. The two pieces of legislation are similar, and CBO's
estimates of their budgetary effects are the same.

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