H.R. 5887 would amend various laws that govern the activities of the United States Coast Guard (USCG). The bill also would authorize appropriations totaling about $26.1 billion, primarily for ongoing USCG operations over the 2013-2015 period. Assuming appropriation of the amounts specified in the bill, CBO estimates that implementing the legislation would cost $24.5 billion over the 2013-2017 period.
