Change provisions relating to the Perkins County Canal Project and provide for transfers from the Perkins County Canal Project Fund

Summary

The measure moves $250 million to Nebraska’s General Fund and another $250 million to the Water Sustainability Fund, while keeping the Perkins County Canal Project Fund for future canal work. It requires the Department of Natural Resources to conduct a detailed study of the canal’s cost, timeline, alternatives, and impact on drinking water. The bill also restates the state’s authority to build the canal under the South Platte River Compact.
