Purpose and Summary
Finish the Arkansas Valley Conduit Act
This bill reduces payments that communities within the Arkansas River Valley must pay to the Bureau of Reclamation for the construction of the Arkansas Valley Conduit, a pipeline in Colorado for delivering water from the Pueblo Reservoir to such communities. Specifically, it removes interest payments and extends the repayment period to 100 years.
Bill 119 HR 131, also known as the Arkansas Valley Conduit Modification Act, aims to make changes to the repayment structure for the Arkansas Valley Conduit project in Colorado. The conduit project is a water infrastructure initiative designed to provide clean drinking water to communities in the Arkansas Valley region.
The bill proposes modifications to the repayment terms for the project, which would likely impact the financial obligations of the state of Colorado and other stakeholders involved in the project. The specific details of these modifications are not explicitly outlined in the bill itself, but it is clear that the intent is to adjust the repayment structure in a way that is beneficial to the project and its stakeholders.
Overall, the Arkansas Valley Conduit Modification Act seeks to improve the financial sustainability of the conduit project and ensure that it can continue to provide essential water services to the communities it serves. The bill is currently under consideration in the US Congress and may undergo further revisions before being passed into law.
