HR 8308 United States House · 118th Congress

Nutria Eradication and Control Reauthorization Act of 2024

HR 8308 reauthorizes the federal Nutria Eradication and Control Program through 2030, extending the existing program authorized under the 2003 Act. The bill directly affects the U.S. Department of the Interior, which administers the program targeting nutria - invasive rodents damaging wetlands in the Chesapeake Bay region. Its key mechanism is updating the program's expiration date from 2025 to 2030, ensuring continued funding and operations for nutria control efforts. This is a procedural extension with no new policy changes, maintaining the current program structure.
