To amend the Aamodt Litigation Settlement Act to modify a provision relating to the extension of certain dates for the completion of the Regional Water System, and for other purposes.

Sponsored By: Representative Rep. Leger Fernandez, Teresa [D-NM-3]

Introduced

Summary

Creates a mutual-consent extension mechanism for the Aamodt Settlement's Regional Water System completion dates. It would let the Pueblos, the U.S. (acting through the Secretary), the State, the City, and the County agree to push deadlines when reasonably necessary.

Show full summary
  • Pueblo governments gain formal shared control over whether construction deadlines shift, so tribal leaders must consent before key dates move.
  • The United States signs off through the Secretary, clarifying that extension authority operates via the executive branch rather than by automatic statute or court action.
  • State, city, and county officials must join any extension agreement, which can ease timing problems for construction, financing, or other settlement needs.

Governments can delay regional water deadline

If enacted, this bill would allow the parties named in the Aamodt Settlement to extend the completion dates in subsection (e) for the Regional Water System. All parties must agree: the Pueblos, the United States (acting through the Secretary), the State, the City, and the County. They would also need to find the extension is "reasonably necessary." The change would affect only timing and would not create new funding or new programs. It would let the deadline be pushed back to avoid rushed work or to address project needs.
