S 4576 United States Senate · 118th Congress

Colorado River Basin System Conservation Extension Act

This bill extends the existing Colorado River Basin System Conservation Pilot Program by updating its expiration dates. It revises the program's authorization to run through 2026 (instead of 2024) and extends the deadline for program implementation to 2027 (instead of 2025). The bill does not create new conservation requirements or change how the pilot program operates - only prolongs the current timeline. It directly affects federal agencies and water management entities administering the pilot program in the Colorado River Basin.
