To direct the Secretary of the Interior to carry out a feasibility study on a selective water withdrawal system at Glen Canyon Dam, and for other purposes.
This bill, HB8113, proposes to instruct the Secretary of the Interior to conduct a feasibility study on implementing a selective water withdrawal system at Glen Canyon Dam. The idea is to explore whether such a system could be effectively established and how it might impact water management. This bill was introduced on March 26, 2026, and has been referred to the House Committee on Natural Resources for further review.
The bill would primarily affect water resource management in the regions supplied by Glen Canyon Dam. By studying a selective water withdrawal system, the bill aims to ensure that water is distributed more efficiently and sustainably. This could have implications for local communities, agriculture, and environmental conservation efforts dependent on the Colorado River.
As of the last update on March 26, 2026, HB8113 has been introduced and referred to the House Committee on Natural Resources. There have been no further actions taken yet. The bill's future progress will depend on the committee's review and any subsequent legislative actions.
