"The President's full budget for Fiscal Year 2018 (FY18) continues to propose the elimination of 19 agencies, including the U.S. Chemical Safety and Hazard Investigation Board (CSB).  Today, the CSB submitted its budget request for FY18, pursuant to its authority as an independent federal agency.  Congress provided the CSB with concurrent authority to submit its annual budget requests directly to the Congress, as well as to the Office of Management and Budget."
