Bill > S2878

This bill reauthorizes funding for monitoring, assessing, and researching the Great Lakes Basin by extending the current authorization period from 2025 to 2030. Specifically, the bill amends an existing section of law (16 U.S.C. 941h(d)) by changing the year of funding authorization from 2025 to 2030, which will allow continued federal support for scientific research and assessment activities in the Great Lakes region. The legislation ensures that important environmental and fishery research can continue for an additional five years, helping to maintain ongoing efforts to understand and protect the ecological systems of the Great Lakes. The bill is formally titled the "Great Lakes Fishery Research Reauthorization Act" and represents a routine legislative action to extend critical research funding for this important freshwater ecosystem.
