H.R. 6184, as amended, would extend through 2016 the authority of the Corps to collect and spend funds contributed by private firms to expedite the
  evaluation of permit applications. Because the legislation would affect direct spending, pay-as-you-go procedures apply. However, based on information
  from the Corps, CBO estimates that amounts collected and spent for such purposes would total less than $500,000 annually and that the net budgetary
  impact would be negligible.
