HR 7204 United States House · 118th Congress

Ensure Funding for Our Environment Act

This bill amends existing law to shift administrative responsibility for funding river basin commissions from the Secretary of the Army to the Administrator of the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). It specifically updates provisions related to the Susquehanna, Delaware, and Potomac River Basin Commissions, changing references from "Secretary" to "Administrator" in funding-related sections. The bill does not create new funding but clarifies that the EPA Administrator (or their designee) will oversee existing funding mechanisms for these commissions. It directly affects the operations of the three river basin commissions by changing their primary federal point of contact for funding administration.
