Bill overview
This bill aims to improve water resource management in the Northeast by expanding the federal government’s Snow Survey and Water Supply Forecasting program. The program currently focuses on other regions, but this legislation directs the Department of Agriculture to extend its services to include Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont, New York, and potentially other states as determined by the Secretary of Agriculture. This expansion will provide more accurate data on snowpack and water availability, helping communities and agencies plan for water needs throughout the year.
