The Act tells the agency to report on the study. (Flesch Readability Score: 61.3). Directs the Water Resources Department to study water management issues.

AI Summary
This bill directs the Water Resources Department to conduct a comprehensive study on water management issues and requires the department to submit a report to legislative committees focused on natural resources by September 15, 2026. The report may include recommendations for future legislation and will be prepared in accordance with ORS 192.245, which likely provides guidelines for official government reporting. The bill includes a built-in sunset provision, meaning the legislative requirement automatically expires on January 2, 2027, after the report is submitted. This approach suggests the bill is intended to be a time-limited, focused effort to examine and potentially improve water management practices in Oregon, with a specific timeframe for study and reporting.
