Bill Summary
General Description: This bill addresses leasing of water.
AI Summary
This bill establishes the Great Salt Lake Preservation Program, which will allow for the leasing of agricultural water to benefit the Great Salt Lake, with a dedicated board to oversee the program and set lease rates based on factors like the five-year average price of alfalfa hay. The bill also clarifies the state engineer's role in managing water divisions and distributions, specifically addressing how leased water for the Great Salt Lake should be handled, ensuring it's not diverted by intervening users and is only regulated by the state engineer. Additionally, it sets deadlines for certain water-related programs to be repealed, amends provisions regarding the nonlapsing nature of certain appropriations, and outlines reporting requirements for the Great Salt Lake Preservation Board.
