Contaminated Wells Relocation Act

HR 1419, the Contaminated Wells Relocation Act, requires NASA to reimburse the Town of Chincoteague, Virginia, for costs related to relocating three drinking water wells currently on NASA property. The bill mandates an agreement between NASA and the town for developing a relocation plan and establishing new wells on town-controlled land, including specific details like site locations and cost estimates. NASA must submit this agreement to Congress within 18 months of the bill's enactment. This directly affects Chincoteague residents who rely on these wells for drinking water.
