STATE WATER PLAN – Adds to existing law to provide for the establishment of a certain Eastern Snake Plain Aquifer recharge goal in the state water plan.

H 193 requires Idaho's Water Resource Board to set a specific annual goal of at least 350,000 acre-feet for replenishing the Eastern Snake Plain Aquifer through managed recharge in the state's water plan. This policy change directly affects state water planning processes and the board's responsibilities, aiming to address long-term aquifer sustainability. The bill establishes a concrete, measurable target for water management rather than altering water rights or regulations for individuals or businesses. It becomes effective on July 1, 2025, following its introduction in February 2025.
