Water management account, projects
WATER MANAGEMENT ACCOUNT – Amends existing law to revise provisions regarding expenditures, to provide for the selection of projects, and to revise provisions regarding loans and grants.

RS30114 / S1032

This bill amends section 42-1760 in two ways. First, it add language to provide guidance to the Idaho Water Resource Board in the development of grant programs and expenditures. This language was included in the Idaho Department of Water Resources’ 2023 appropriation bill (H769, 2022) and is now being added to 42-1760. Second, it reorganizes the section for clarity.

This bill has no impact on the general fund. Funds made available for grant programs and expenditures are appropriated through a separate process.
