This enacted law extends an existing authorization for funding that supports monitoring, assessing, and researching the Great Lakes Basin. It changes the end year in section 201(d) of title II of division P of the Further Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2020 (16 U.S.C. 941h(d)) from "2025" to "2030." The Act was approved on December 26, 2025.
The change lets the authorized programs that monitor, assess, and research the Great Lakes Basin continue through 2030. Communities, researchers, and agencies involved in Great Lakes monitoring and research can expect the authorization to remain in place until 2030.
