    The Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure, to whom 
was referred the bill (H.R. 2776) to designate buildings 315, 
318, and 319 located at the Federal Aviation Administration's 
William J. Hughes Technical Center in Atlantic City, New

    Frank Lautenberg was elected to the United States Senate in 
1982. During his three terms in office, Senator Lautenberg held

American flying public.
    For his distinguished service in the United States Senate, 
this is fitting and proper to designate buildings 315, 318 and 
319 located at the Federal Aviation Administration's William J. 
Hughes Technical Center in Atlantic City, New Jersey in his

                                     U.S. Congress,
                               Congressional Budget Office,
                                  Washington, DC, November 9, 2001.
Hon. Don Young,
Chairman, Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure,
House of Representatives, Washington, DC.
    Dear Mr. Chairman: The Congressional Budget Office has 
reviewed the following bills, which were ordered reported by 
the House Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure on 
November 7, 2001. CBO estimates that their enactment would have 
no significant impact on the federal budget, and would not 
affect direct spending or receipts; therefore, pay-as-you-go 
procedures would not apply. The bills contain no 
intergovernmental or private-sector mandates as defined in the 
Unfunded Mandates Reform Act and would impose no costs on 
state, local or tribal governments. The bills reviewed are:
     H.R. 3093, a bill to designate the building and 
United States courthouse located at 501 Bell Street in Alton, 
Illinois, as the ``William L. Beatty Federal Building and 
United States Courthouse;''
     H.R. 2972, a bill to designate the building and 
United States courthouse located at 550 West Fort Street in 
Boise, Idaho, as the ``James A. McClure Federal Building and 
United States Courthouse;''
     H.R. 2776, a bill to designate buildings 315, 318 
and 319 located at the Federal Aviation Administration's 
William J. Hughes Technical Center in Atlantic City, New 
Jersey, as the ``Frank R. Lautenberg Aviation Security 
Complex;''
     H.R. 2841, a bill to designate the building 
located at 1 Federal Plaza in New York, New York, as the 
``James L. Watson United States Court of International Trade 
Building;'' and
     S. 378, an act to redesignate the federal building 
located at 3348 South Kedzie Avenue, in Chicago, Illinois, as 
the ``Paul Simon Chicago Job Corps Center.''
    If you wish further details on this estimate, we will be 
pleased to provide them. The CBO staff contact is Matthew 
Pickford.
            Sincerely,
                                          Barry B. Anderson
                                    (For Dan L. Crippen, Director).

                   CONSTITUTIONAL AUTHORITY STATEMENT

House of Representatives, committee reports on a bill or joint 
resolution of a public character shall include a statement

Transportation and Infrastructure finds that Congress has the 
authority to enact this measure pursuant to its powers granted 
under Article I, Section 8 of the Constitution.

                       FEDERAL MANDATES STATEMENT

    The Committee adopts as its own the estimate of Federal 
mandates prepared by the Director of the Congressional Budget

of the Federal Advisory Committee Act were created by this 
legislation.

the terms and conditions of employment or access to public 
services or accommodations within the meaning of section
