                                     S.  436
               San Juan  County   Settlement  Implementation Act

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


 S. 436 would authorize the Secretary of the Interior to provide Ark Coal Company (Ark)
 with bidding credits to acquire federally owned mineral rights if Ark agrees to relinquish
 its rights to acquire noncompetitive coal leases on certain federal land. Bidding credits
 are assigned a dollar value and can be used in lieu of cash to make certain payments to
 the federal government. The bill also would cancel certain selections of federal land made
 by the Navajo Nation and allow the tribe to acquire other land owned by the federal
 government. Finally, the bill would add 9,500 acres of federal land to the National
 Wilderness Preservation System.

 CBO  estimates that enacting S. 436 would reduce offsetting receipts, which are treated as
 increases in direct spending, by $34 million over the 2019-2025 period; therefore, pay-as-
 you-go procedures apply. Enacting the bill would not affect revenues or spending subject
 to appropriation.

 CBO  estimates that enacting S. 436 would not increase net direct spending or on-budget
 deficits in any of the four consecutive 10-year periods beginning in 2029.

 S. 436 contains no intergovernmental or private-sector mandates as defined in the
 Unfunded Mandates Reform  Act (UMRA).
