Grand River Dam Authority can borrow $3.6B

The law raises the Authority’s bond limit to $3.6 billion. It can use bonds to build, buy, or improve power plants, dams, lines, and related land, and to refinance debt. It can partner with public agencies, rural electric co‑ops, and private companies on these projects. Bond covenants and court remedies can require rates high enough to cover debt payments, which can raise bills for customers the Authority serves. The law takes effect right away.
