S. 860 would authorize the Bureau of Reclamation (BOR) to credit the Mancos Water
Conservancy District for some of the work it performed on the Jackson Gulch Rehabilitation
Project in Colorado. Under current law, the conservancy district is required to reimburse the
federal government for its share (35 percent) of the project's total costs in 15 annual
installments, without interest. The district begins to make those payments one year after it
receives any funding for the project from the BOR. The conservancy district received credit
toward its share of the project's costs for expenditures that it incurred before the Congress
authorized the project in March 2009.
After March 2009, the conservancy district continued to work at its own expense to advance
the project and the conservancy district will not receive credit toward its share of project
costs for that work. S. 860 would require the BOR to credit the district for expenditures made
after March 2009. That requirement would have the effect of reducing annual payments from
the district (which are recorded as reductions in direct spending). Those reductions would
total less than $500,000 over the 2020-2029 period.

The CBO staff contact for this estimate is Aurora Swanson. The estimate was reviewed by
H. Samuel Papenfuss, Deputy Assistant Director for Budget Analysis.
