                                  S.  1520
       Modernizing   Recreational  Fisheries Management Act of 2018

 As ordered reported by the Senate Committee on Commerce, Science, and Transportation
                             on February 28, 2018


SUMMARY

S. 1520 would allow the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) to
make grants to states to improve their registration practices for recreational fishing. The
bill also would require NOAA and the National Academy of Sciences (NAS) to conduct
several studies and reviews related to fishery conservation and management.

Assuming appropriation of the necessary amounts, CBO estimates that implementing
S. 1520 would cost $7 million over the 2019-2023 period.

Enacting the bill would not affect direct spending or revenues; therefore, pay-as-you-go
procedures do not apply. CBO estimates that enacting S. 1520 would not increase net
direct spending or on-budget deficits in any of the four consecutive 10-year periods
beginning in 2029.

S. 1520 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 S. 1520 is shown in the following table. The costs of
the legislation fall within budget function 300 (natural resources and environment).
