serve as a U.S. Navy pilot during World War II. After completion 

of his service, Mr. Evans attended the University of Denver, graduating with a bachelor’s degree, and then received his law degree

private practice in Pueblo, Colorado, and was elected to the Colorado State House of Representatives in 1960. In 1964, Representative Evans was elected to U.S. House of Representatives, where he 

served Colorado’s 3rd Congressional District for seven terms until

of the Rules of the House of Representatives, and section 308(a) of 

the Congressional Budget Act of 1974, the Committee references 

the report of the Congressional Budget Office included in the report.

Hon. JAMES L. OBERSTAR, 

Chairman, Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure, 

House of Representatives, Washington, DC. 

DEAR MR. CHAIRMAN: The Congressional Budget Office has reviewed the following legislation ordered reported by the House 

Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure on July 29, 2010: 

• H.R. 4387, a bill to designate the federal building located 

at 100 North Palafox Street in Pensacola, Florida, as the ‘‘Winston E. Arnow Federal Building’’; 

• H.R. 5651, a bill to designate the federal building and 

United States courthouse located at 515 9th Street in Rapid 

City, South Dakota, as the ‘‘Andrew W. Bogue Federal Building and United States Courthouse’’;

• H.R. 5706, a bill to designate the building occupied by the 

Government Printing Office located at 31451 East United Avenue in Pueblo, Colorado, as the ‘‘Frank Evans Government 

Printing Office Building’’; 

• H.R. 5773, a bill to redesignate the federal building located 

at 6401 Security Boulevard in Baltimore, Maryland, commonly 

known as the Social Security Operations Building, as the ‘‘Robert M. Ball Federal Building’’; and 

• H.R. 5591, a bill to designate the airport traffic control 

tower located at Spokane International Airport in Spokane, 

Washington, as the ‘‘Ray Daves Airport Traffic Control Tower.’’ 

CBO estimates that enacting those pieces of legislation would 

have no significant impact on the federal budget and would not affect direct spending or revenues; 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. 

If you wish further details on this estimate, we will be pleased 

to provide them. The CBO staff contact is Matthew Pickford. 

Sincerely, 

ROBERT A. SUNSHINE

(For Douglas W. Elmendorf, Director). 

COMPLIANCE WITH HOUSE RULE XXI

Pursuant to clause 9 of rule XXI of the Rules of the House of 

Representatives, the Committee is required to include a list of congressional earmarks, limited tax benefits, or limited tariff benefits, 

as defined in clause 9(e), 9(f), and 9(g) of rule XXI of the Rules of 

the House of Representatives. H.R. 5706, as amended, does not 

contain any earmarks, limited tax benefits, or limited tariff benefits under clause 9(e), 9(f), or 9(g) of rule XXI. 

CONSTITUTIONAL AUTHORITY STATEMENT

Pursuant to clause 3(d)(1) of rule XIII of the Rules of the House 

of Representatives, committee reports on a bill or joint resolution 

of a public character shall include a statement citing the specific 

powers granted to the Congress in the Constitution to enact the 

measure. The Committee on 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 Office 

pursuant to section 423 of the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act 

(P.L. 104–4). 

PREEMPTION CLARIFICATION

Section 423 of the Congressional Budget Act of 1974 requires the 

report of any Committee on a bill or joint resolution to include a 

statement on the extent to which the bill or joint resolution is intended to preempt state, local, or tribal law. The Committee states

tribal law.
