Bill overview
This bill requires the Government Accountability Office (GAO) to produce a report for Congress detailing the condition and status of dams supported by the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s watershed programs. The report will assess each dam’s location, structural integrity, compliance with environmental regulations, hazard classification, and whether it’s meeting its intended purpose or should be considered for decommissioning. It will also examine whether dams have exceeded their expected lifespan and outline plans for their future care.
