Central Valley Water Solution Act

H.R. 6641, the Central Valley Water Solution Act, would authorize the Secretary of the Interior to provide financial and technical support for various water-related projects in California's Central Valley. The bill aims to improve water management and delivery through initiatives focused on water storage, groundwater banking, and conveyance systems. Specific projects would receive federal funding allocations, including work on water district recharge basins, canal capacity corrections, and other infrastructure improvements. The bill specifies that entities receiving funding would not be required to provide matching funds or cost-sharing contributions, with limited exceptions. All projects would need to comply with applicable environmental laws and regulations. The bill is currently in the House Committee on Natural Resources and has not yet been voted on by the full House.
