                                      S. 2202
         National   Transportation Safety Board Reauthorization Act

 As ordered reported by the Senate Committee on Commerce, Science, and Transportation
                                on December  13, 2017


S. 2202 would authorize appropriations totaling $452 million over the 2019-2022 period
(and $115 million in 2023) for the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB). (By
comparison, the Congress provided $106 million for the NTSB in 2017.) That agency is
responsible for investigating significant accidents that occur in civil aviation and other
modes  of surface, rail, and waterborne transportation and for recommending safety
measures for preventing future accidents.

As shown  in the following table, and based on historical spending patterns, CBO
estimates that implementing the bill would cost $427 million over the 2019-2022 period
and an additional $138 million after 2022, assuming appropriation of the authorized
amounts.

                                                                                2018-
                             2018      2019      2020       2021      2022      2022

                  INCREASES IN SPENDING SUBJECT TO APPROPRIATION
Authorization Level            0        111       112        113       114       452
Estimated Outlays              0         94       106        113       114       427

Numbers may not add up to totals because of rounding; the bill also would authorize appropriations of $115 million in 2023 for
the National Transportation Safety Board.


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

CBO  estimates that enacting S. 2202 would not increase net direct spending or on-budget
deficits in any of the four consecutive 10-year periods beginning in 2028.
