Bill > HR1809

This bill reauthorizes funding for monitoring, assessing, and researching the Great Lakes Basin by extending the current authorization period from 2025 to 2030. The legislation makes a simple, targeted amendment to an existing law (specifically Section 201(d) of title II of division P of the Further Consolidated Appropriations Act) by changing the year of funding authorization. By extending the timeframe, the bill ensures continued federal support for scientific research and monitoring activities in the Great Lakes region, which is critical for understanding and protecting this important freshwater ecosystem. The bill's short, straightforward language indicates its focused purpose of maintaining ongoing research efforts without introducing substantial new provisions or significantly altering existing research programs.
