AI Summary
This bill directs the Oregon Water Resources Department to conduct a comprehensive study on the decline of ground water levels, with a requirement to submit a report to the interim legislative committees focused on water by September 15, 2026. The report may include recommendations for potential future legislation and will be prepared in accordance with Oregon Revised Statute (ORS) 192.245, which likely governs the format and submission of legislative reports. The bill includes a built-in sunset provision that automatically repeals the study mandate on January 2, 2027, effectively ensuring that the study is a time-limited initiative. The primary goal appears to be gathering data and insights about groundwater level changes, which could inform future water resource management policies and legislative actions in Oregon.
