Gold King Mine Spill Compensation Act of 2025

This bill provides compensation to specific individuals and businesses affected by the 2015 Gold King Mine spill in Colorado. It allows eligible "injured persons" (like homeowners, farmers, or recreation businesses) who submitted claims by August 5, 2017, to seek payment for documented losses including lost income (excluding vacation rentals), livestock relocation costs, and crop damage occurring between August 5, 2015, and December 31, 2015. The Environmental Protection Agency Administrator will review claims, with payments limited to actual damages claimed and capped at $3.3 million total for fiscal year 2025. Accepting payment releases all related claims against the U.S. government under the Federal Tort Claims Act.
