Bill overview
This bill changes the mission of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers to prioritize water supply and conservation alongside its existing responsibilities like navigation and flood control. It directs the Secretary of the Army to incorporate these goals into all planning and operations of the Corps. The bill aims to ensure that water resources projects are designed and maintained with a focus on providing water and conserving existing supplies. Importantly, it does not alter existing authorities or state water management powers.
