The National Sea  Grant College Program  is a partnership between the National Oceanic and
Atmospheric  Administration  (NOAA)   and 33 university-based programs  that focuses on
studying, conserving, and effectively using U.S. coastal resources. H.R. 2405 would amend
the program  and would authorize appropriations totaling $631 million over the 2020-2025
period for NOAA   to implement that program. The  bill would restrict the use of funds
allocated to the program's policy fellowship, reduce the frequency of reports to the
Congress, and  streamline the process for federal agencies to hire former recipients of a Dean
John A. Knauss  Marine  Policy Fellowship.

Based  on historical spending patterns and assuming appropriation of the authorized amounts,
CBO   estimates that implementing the bill would cost $631 million over the 2020-2029
period. In 2019, NOAA   allocated $80 million to the program. The costs of the legislation,
detailed in Table 1, fall within budget function 300 (natural resources and environment).
