More time and oversight for Yakima water

Effective June 30, 2025, the law extends the Yakima water plan’s permit and funding deadline to before June 30, 2035. Meeting it requires approved permits and secured construction funding for facilities designed to supply at least 214,000 acre-feet for river and other uses. The related temporary land-management period ends when the milestone is met or June 30, 2035, whichever comes first. Independent cost-benefit review remains required before construction money is appropriated for projects costing more than $100 million; this rule expires July 1, 2035. Ecology, with the State Treasurer’s help, must add financing chapters covering possible state and local funding sources, financing methods, nonstate costs, and cost overruns.
