This bill, the Bureau of Reclamation and Bureau of Indian Affairs Water Project Streamlining Act, aims to facilitate and streamline the processes for creating or expanding certain water projects under the purview of the Bureau of Reclamation and the Bureau of Indian Affairs. The key provisions include accelerating the completion of feasibility studies, establishing a coordinated environmental review process, allowing non-Federal entities to serve as lead agencies, identifying and resolving issues that could delay projects, authorizing certain water projects, and deauthorizing outdated or unfeasible Reclamation projects. The bill also requires the Secretary of the Interior to report annually to Congress on proposed water projects and project modifications.
