The Congressional Budget Office (CBO) has issued a cost estimate for H.R. 3553, the BRUSH Fires Act. This estimate, dated March 27, 2026, was prepared as ordered by the House Committee on Natural Resources on March 5, 2026. The document outlines the projected financial implications of the bill, which includes directives for the Department of Agriculture to produce reports.

This CBO cost estimate serves as an informational document for Congress regarding the potential budgetary impact of the BRUSH Fires Act. While it does not impose direct compliance obligations on regulated entities, it informs the legislative process. Compliance officers in the agricultural sector or those involved in environmental management may wish to review the CBO's analysis to understand the potential future legislative landscape and associated resource allocations.
