Federal HB5063 ensures lifeguard staffing at federal beaches by reimbursing local agencies for lifeguard services.
Federal HB5063, known as the Safe Beaches, Safe Swimmers Act, mandates that the Secretary of the Interior reimburse local government agencies for lifeguard services at designated swim locations. This applies to areas managed by the National Park Service, the United States Fish and Wildlife Service, the Bureau of Land Management, or the Bureau of Reclamation. The bill ensures that local agencies are adequately compensated for staffing shortages that impact the ability to monitor these beaches during normal seasonal operating hours.
