Bill: 118-s-5292
Sponsor: Sen. Sullivan, Dan [R-AK]
Introduced: 2024-09-25 in the Senate
Policy area: Transportation and Public Works
Subjects: Coast guard

Summary:
action_date: 2024-09-25
text: 
This bill allows the Coast Guard to pursue the acquisition of an icebreaker without having to meet certain early-stage acquisition steps typically required for Coast Guard major acquisition programs.

The bill exempts acquisition or procurement projects from meeting specific requirements to produce information until the first phase of the initial acquisition or procurement is complete and initial operating capacity is achieved. Specifically, the project is exempt from requirements that the Coast Guard

clearly define the operational requirements for the project or program;

develop an acquisition project or program baseline; and

submit to Congress materials on the project, including an acquisition program baseline showing costs and schedule information.

If the Coast Guard provides a briefing to Congress within 30 days of the bill's enactment that includes a detailed cost estimate for an icebreaker, then the project is also exempt from additional requirements until the first phase of the initial acquisition or procurement is complete and initial operating capacity is achieved. Specifically, the project is exempt from requirements that the Coast Guard produce documents that include (1) an approved test and evaluation master plan, and (2) a life cycle cost estimate.

Contaminated Wells Relocation Act

This bill permits the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to enter into an agreement to reimburse the town of Chincoteague, Virginia for costs directly associated with the removal and relocation of drinking water wells currently situated on NASA property. 

(Drinking water wells located at NASA’s Wallops Flight Facility near Chincoteague have tested positive for perfluoroalkyl or polyfluoroalkyl substances, commonly referred to as PFAS, resulting from the use of certain firefighting foams at the site beginning in the 1970s. NASA currently operates a water treatment system to remove PFAS from the affected water supply.) 

Any such agreement must include, to the extent practicable, (1) a provision for the removal and relocation of the wells remaining on NASA property, (2) a description of the location to which the wells are planned to be relocated, and (3) a current cost estimate of such relocation. Replacement wells must be established on property under the administrative control of the town of Chincoteague.
