This bill would change parts of the Dingell-Johnson Sport Fish Restoration Act. It replaces the year "2026" with "2031" in several places, which extends the Act's authorization period. It also changes rules in the multistate conservation grant program by removing a prior phrase that began "Not more than $1,200,000 of each" and replacing it with the word "Each." In one grant provision it replaces a fixed amount of "$200,000" with a formula that sets the amount to "the greater of 0.0375 percent of such appropriation or $200,000."
If you work with sport fish restoration, recreational boating safety, or multistate conservation projects, this bill would extend the program's authorization through 2031 and change how one set of multistate grants is described and calculated. The text does not include details about new programs, services, or direct benefits to individuals.
No publicly available information on total costs or budget impact. The bill text changes how certain grant amounts are stated but does not provide full appropriation totals or estimated fiscal effects.
