Bill overview
The Watershed Results Act authorizes the Secretary of the Interior to establish up to five watershed pilot programs in Reclamation States to improve water quality and quantity. These pilots will use a ‘pay-for-performance’ contract system, where outcomes are purchased based on pre-determined targets. The bill emphasizes the use of advanced data analysis to identify effective projects and establish minimum outcome prices. It also creates an Environmental Outcomes Fund to support these initiatives and requires regular reporting to Congress on the pilots’ progress and financial details.
