Colorado River Basin System Conservation Extension Act of 2025
Sponsored By: Representative Hageman, Harriet M. [R-WY-At Large]
In Committee
Summary
Reauthorizes the Colorado River Basin System Conservation Pilot Program and extends its operative dates through 2027 while renaming the statutory authority. The bill would replace references to "this Act" with the new short title "Colorado River Basin System Conservation Extension Act of 2025" and change a 2024 end date to 2026 and a 2025 end date to 2027. It does not alter funding levels, eligibility criteria, or program requirements. The result is a longer authorization window for the existing pilot under the same rules and funding structure.
