L&C TO RECEIVE ANOTHER $13.17M IN BIPARTISAN INFRASTRUCTURE LAW FUNDING

The Bureau of Reclamation announced on January 16 that L&C will receive another $13.17M in Bipartisan Infrastructure Law (BIL) funding for FY25.  Senators Thune, Klobuchar, Rounds and Smith included a $20M congressionally directed spending request in the FY25 Appropriations Bill for L&C.  The senators’ request is on top of the $6.825M proposed by the Administration (total of $26.825M).  This is enough to complete the Base System.  Big thanks to our partners at BoR for the additional BIL funding!  When combined with the BIL funding L&C received in FY22, FY23 and FY24, this brings L&C’s total BIL funding to $165.67M.
