Summary
The Dry-Redwater Regional Water Authorization Act lets the U.S. Secretary of the Interior support the creation of a new water system for several counties in eastern Montana and western McKenzie County, North Dakota. It provides up to 75% federal cost‑share for planning, design and construction, but not for ongoing operation. The bill also secures federal power from the Pick‑Sloan program for the system’s pumps and treatment facilities.
