Securing America's Water Supply Act

The Securing America's Water Supply Act directs the Army Corps of Engineers to create a new office dedicated to improving water supply, conservation, and drought resilience. This office will identify opportunities to use existing federal authorities to store and manage water for municipal and industrial needs, while also helping states and local groups access technical and financial assistance. Key actions include clearing backlogs on water supply studies, updating internal policies on how reservoir storage is allocated, and coordinating with other agencies to plan for future water shortages. The bill also requires the Corps to report annually on the office's progress, staffing levels, and the status of ongoing water projects.
