handle is hein.congrec/cbonhbcn0001 and id is 1 raw text is: \ Congressional Budget Office '4 Cost Estimate October 7, 2019 By Fiscal Year, Millions of Dollars 2020 2020-2024 2020-2029 Direct Spending (Outlays) Revenues Increase or Decrease (-) in the Deficit * 0 * * * 0 * 0 * H.R. 1747 would create a National Fish Habitat Board consisting of 25 members from the federal government, state governments, private industry representatives, and other private citizens. The board would recommend to the Congress organizations to be designated as Fish Habitat Partnerships. Those partnerships would be eligible to receive federal grants to improve the health of fish and fish habitats. H.R. 1747 would authorize the appropriation of $7.2 million annually through 2023 for grants to partnerships to implement conservation projects and an additional $360,000 annually through 2023 for administrative expenses. The bill also would authorize the Department of the Interior (DOI), the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, the Environmental Protection Agency, and the Forest Service to provide technical and scientific assistance to any partnerships recognized under H.R. 1747. The bill would authorize the appropriation of $2 million annually over the 2020- 2024 period for those agencies to provide such assistance. Using historical spending patterns for similar programs and assuming appropriation of the authorized amounts, CBO estimates that implementing H.R. 1747 would cost $32 million over the 2020-2024 period and $8 million after 2024. The costs of the legislation, detailed in Table 1, fall within budget function 300 (natural resources and environment).
