A bill to modify certain cost-sharing and revenue provisions relating to the Arkansas Valley Conduit, Colorado.

Bill 114 s 2616, also known as the Arkansas Valley Conduit Modification Act, is a piece of legislation that aims to make changes to the cost-sharing and revenue provisions related to the Arkansas Valley Conduit in Colorado. The Arkansas Valley Conduit is a water infrastructure project that was authorized by Congress in 1962 to provide clean drinking water to communities in southeastern Colorado.

The bill proposes to modify the cost-sharing requirements for the project, which currently require the local water users to cover 35% of the costs. The new legislation would reduce this cost-sharing requirement to 15%, making it easier for the local communities to afford their share of the project.

Additionally, the bill includes provisions to adjust the revenue requirements for the project, allowing for more flexibility in how the project is funded. This could potentially help to expedite the completion of the Arkansas Valley Conduit and ensure that clean drinking water is provided to the communities in need. Overall, the Arkansas Valley Conduit Modification Act seeks to make important changes to the cost-sharing and revenue provisions of the project in order to facilitate its completion and ensure that clean drinking water is accessible to all residents in southeastern Colorado.
