S 4016 United States Senate · 118th Congress

Help Hoover Dam Act

This bill amends the 1928 Boulder Canyon Project Act to authorize the Secretary of the Interior to spend recovered funds (specifically from account XXXR5656P1) on Hoover Dam operations, maintenance, cleanup, and capital improvements. It directly affects the Department of the Interior and Hoover Dam contractors, requiring their review and approval for fund use. The key provision allows flexible spending of non-reimbursable recovered funds for authorized activities within the Boulder Canyon Project area. This is a procedural amendment to existing law, not a new policy. (3 sentences)
