Prohibits the Secretary from obligating any Federal funds for the construction of such System until the Secretary finds that appropriate non-Federal interests have implemented water conservation programs throughout the System's service area. Provides that mitigation for fish and wildlife losses incurred as a result of the construction and operation of the System shall be on an acre-for-acre basis, based on ecological equivalency, concurrent with project construction.

Provides for the establishment of a Wetlands Trust, to be administered by the South Dakota Game, Fish and Parks Foundation.
