Urban Canal Modernization Act

This bill defines "urban canal of concern" as canals posing significant risk - either affecting over 100 people or $5 million in property damage if they fail, or designated as urban by Bureau of Reclamation offices. It requires the Bureau of Reclamation to fund 35% of extraordinary maintenance costs for these high-risk canals, with the remaining costs to be repaid by the local operating entity. The bill applies directly to local canal operators and the Bureau of Reclamation, focusing on safety upgrades for aging infrastructure in urban areas. It does not create new programs but modifies existing funding mechanisms under the 2009 Omnibus Public Land Management Act.
