Plain-English Summary

This bill would change deadlines in a long-running water rights settlement agreement involving Native American tribes in New Mexico, giving the parties more time to complete construction of a regional water system that serves both tribal and non-tribal communities. The modification would affect the Aamodt settlement, which has been resolving water disputes between the Tesuque Pueblo and other stakeholders for decades. The bill is currently under review by the Senate Committee on Indian Affairs.
