Amend the title so as to read: A bill to make technical corrections to the Omnibus Parks and Public Lands Management Act of 1996 and to other laws related to parks and public lands. Purpose of the Bill The purpose of H.R. 149 is to make technical corrections to the Omnibus Parks and Public Lands Management Act of 1996 and other public lands laws. Background and Need for Legislation In each Congress large numbers of individual pieces of legislation are passed and written into law. Often, small mistakes and errors are made in drafting and printing the final language that becomes the actual law. For example, a map might be misdesignated, a period is missing from a sentence, or a word is spelled incorrectly. The Administration is very proficient in discovering these technical mistakes and have brought many of them to the attention of Congress. This bill makes numerous necessary technical corrections to the Omnibus Parks and Public Lands Management Act of 1996 (Public Law 104- 333), the Arches National Park Expansion Act of 1998 (Public Law 105-329), the Dutch John Federal property Disposition and Assistance Act of 1998 (Public Law 105-326), the Oregon Public Lands Transfer and Protection Act of 1998 (Public Law 105-321), and Public Law 105-355 (relating to the Delaware Water Gap National Recreation Area). Committee Action H.R. 149 was introduced on January 6, 1999, by Congressman James V. Hansen (R-UT). The bill was referred to the Committee on Resources, and within the Committee to the Subcommittee on National Parks and Public Lands. On February 3, 1999, the Full Resources Committee met to consider the bill. Two amendments were offered. Congressman Chris Cannon (R-UT) offered an en bloc amendment to make additional technical corrections to the Omnibus Parks and Public Lands Management Act and other public lands laws. It was adopted by voice vote. Another amendment was offered by Congressman Greg Walden (R-OR) to make technical corrections to the Oregon Public Lands Transfer and Protection Act of 1998. It was adopted by voice vote. The bill, as amended, was then ordered favorably reported to the House of Representatives by voice vote. Committee Oversight Findings and Recommendations Regarding clause 2(b)(1) of Rule X and clause 3(c)(1) of Rule XIII of the Rules of the House of Representatives, the Committee on Resources' oversight findings and recommendations are reflected in the body of this report. Constitutional Authority Statement Article I, section 8 of the Constitution of the United States grants Congress the authority to enact this bill. Compliance With House Rule XIII 1. Cost of Legislation. Clause 3(d)(2) of Rule XIII of the Rules of the House of Representatives requires an estimate and a comparison by the Committee of the costs which would be incurred in carrying out this bill. However, clause 3(d)(3)(B) of that Rule provides that this requirement does not apply when the Committee has included in its report a timely submitted cost estimate of the bill prepared by the Director of the Congressional Budget Office under section 402 of the Congressional Budget Act of 1974. 2. Congressional Budget Act. As required by clause 3(c)(2) of Rule XIII of the Rules of the House of Representatives and section 308(a) of the Congressional Budget Act of 1974, this bill does not contain any new budget authority, credit authority, or an increase or decrease in revenues or tax expenditures. According to the Congressional Budget Office, enactment of this bill could affect direct spending, but any such effect would be negligible. 3. Government Reform Oversight Findings. Under clause 3(c)(4) of Rule XIII of the Rules of the House of Representatives, the Committee has received no report of oversight findings and recommendations from the Committee on Government Reform on this bill. 4. Congressional Budget Office Cost Estimate. Under clause 3(c)(3) of Rule XIII of the Rules of the House of Representatives and section 403 of the Congressional Budget Act of 1974, the Committee has received the following cost estimate for this bill from the Director of the Congressional Budget Office. U.S. Congress, Congressional Budget Office, Washington, DC. February 10, 1999. Hon. Don Young, Chairman, Committee on Resources, U.S. House of Representatives, Washington, DC. Dear Mr. Chairman: The Congressional Budget Office has prepared the enclosed cost estimate for H.R. 149, the Omnibus Parks Technical Corrections Act of 1999. If you wish further details on this estimate, we will be pleased to provide them. The CBO staff contacts are Deborah Reis and Victoria Heid. Sincerely, Barry B. Anderson, (For Dan L. Crippen, Director). Enclosure. H.R. 149--Omnibus Parks Technical Corrections Act of 1999 H.R. 149 would make technical amendments to numerous provisions of the Omnibus Parks and Public Lands Management Act of 1996 (Omnibus Parks Act) and other statues affecting pubic lands. Most of these amendments would correct spelling and punctuation errors or make other non-substantive changes in the original law. CBO estimates that enacting H.R. 149 would not have any significant effect on federal spending. Because enacting this bill could affect direct spending (including offsetting receipts), pay-as-you-go procedures would apply; however, CBO estimates that any such effect would be negligible. H.R. 149 contains no intergovernmental or private-sector mandates as defined in the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act and would have no significant impact on the budgets of state, local, or tribal governments. H.R. 149 would modify the Secretary of the Interior's authority to sell, purchase, or exchange certain federal land in six districts within Oregon managed by the Bureau of Land Management. For specified types of land affected in those districts, the bill would require the Secretary to ensure that there is no net decrease in acreage over the next 10 years or over subsequent 10-year periods. The provision could affect direct spending (including offsetting receipts) if it resulted in changes to timber harvests on federal land and the associated payments to the state and counties. CBO expects that any such effects would likely be insignificant over the next 10 years. The CBO staff contacts are Deborah Reis and Victoria Heid Hall. This estimate was approved by Robert A. Sunshine, Deputy Assistant Director for Budget Analysis. Compliance With Public Law 104-4 This bill contains no unfunded mandates.
