This bill would change a part of the Aamodt Litigation Settlement Act. It amends section 623(g) to add a new paragraph that says the dates in subsection (e) may be extended if the Pueblos, the United States (acting through the Secretary), the State, the City, and the County agree an extension is reasonably necessary. The dates in subsection (e) refer to the completion of the Regional Water System. "Other purposes" are mentioned in the bill title but no details are in the text provided.
The bill lets the listed parties jointly agree to extend deadlines for finishing the Regional Water System. The bill text does not say how often or how long extensions could be, or how those changes would affect specific people or services.
No publicly available information on costs, federal spending, or budget impacts is included in the bill text provided.
No publicly available information in the bill text about supporters' stated reasons. The bill was introduced by Rep. Teresa Leger Fernandez.
No publicly available information in the bill text about opponents' stated reasons or objections.
