GOVERNMENT INFORMATION GP Calendar No. 443 114TH CONGRESS 2d Session THE IRRIGATION REHABILITATION AND FOR INDIAN TRIBAL GOVERNMENTS ECONOMIES ACT (THE IRRIGATE ACT) RENOVATION AND THEIR APRIL 27, 2016.-Ordered to be printed Mr. BARRASSO, from the Committee on Indian Affairs, submitted the following REPORT [To accompany S. 438] The Senate Committee on Indian Affairs, to which was referred the bill (S. 438) to provide for the repair, replacement, and mainte- nance of certain Indian irrigation projects, having considered the same, reports favorably with an amendment and recommends that the bill, as amended, do pass. PURPOSE The purpose of S. 438 would authorize funding to begin address- ing deferred maintenance costs of certain Indian irrigation projects. NEED FOR LEGISLATION The bill intends to bring the Bureau of Indian Affairs (BIA) irri- gation systems into the 21st century by addressing the deferred maintenance needs of these systems. Deferred maintenance means any maintenance activity that was delayed to a future date, in lieu of being carried out at the time at which the activity was scheduled to be, or otherwise should have been, carried out. Many tribal economies depend on these water systems and the BIA has an obligation to repair and maintain those irrigation sys- tems. This legislation would authorize $35 million a year beginning in Fiscal Year 2016 to Fiscal Year 2037 for the rehabilitative needs of the BIA irrigation systems. 59-010 SENATE I REPORT 114-245
