I spent a fair amount of time last night trying to locate a copy of the bill. Couldn't even locate the bill number. If the language used in the article you referenced is correct, however, the NWS would not be able to provide info to Accuweather either. A lot of the NWS could effectively be disbanded; it wouldn't have to do anything that a private company also does. I typed "weather" into THOMAS and the second bill that comes up is S. 786 The National Weather Services Duties Act of 2005. http://thomas.loc.gov/cgi-bin/query/.../~c109Wg00yZ:: |
