Change provisions relating to the Perkins County Canal Project and provide for a transfer from the Perkins County Canal Project Fund
This bill transfers $500 million from the Perkins County Canal Project Fund to the Water Sustainability Fund by June 30, 2025. It updates the legal description of the Perkins County Canal Project's purpose to emphasize water rights protection under the South Platte River Compact but does not alter the project's development plans. The transfer is intended to redirect funds toward broader water sustainability efforts, with the original fund provisions being repealed. The bill has no direct impact on the canal's construction timeline or route planning.
