Finish the Arkansas Valley Conduit Act
This bill amends an existing law (Public Law 87-590) governing the Arkansas Valley Conduit project in Colorado. It changes the payment terms for the project by removing interest from required payments, restricting funding sources to construction-phase payments from non-government entities (not the Secretary), and extending the payment period to 100 years. The bill directly affects the Arkansas Valley Conduit project's financial structure, altering how costs are covered during construction. This is a technical correction to the project's funding mechanism, not a new policy.
