Bill > HR231

This bill reauthorizes the Colorado River System Conservation Pilot Program by amending the Energy and Water Development and Related Agencies Appropriations Act, 2015. Specifically, the bill extends the program's authorization through 2026, with related program activities allowed through 2027. The changes involve updating references to the program's timeframe, replacing previous date limitations with new dates that effectively extend the pilot program's duration. The program is designed to support conservation efforts in the Colorado River Basin, which is a critical water resource for several western United States, and this extension will allow continued work on water conservation strategies in this region. By making these technical amendments, the bill ensures that existing conservation efforts can continue without interruption, providing ongoing support for managing water resources in a water-scarce region.
