A bill to amend the Reclamation Safety of Dams Act of 1978 to authorize additional appropriations, and for other purposes.

Summary

(Reported to Senate from the Committee on Energy and Natural Resources with amendment, S. Rept. 98-258) Amends the Reclamation Safety of Dams Act of 1978 to authorize the Secretary of the Interior to replace (currently, only to modify) Bureau of Reclamation dams and related facilities as determined necessary. Includes the construction of levees and installation of flood warning systems within the authority granted to the Secretary of the Interior under such Act. Requires further specific authorization by Congress for any replacement dam costing more than $10,000,000. Denies the use of funds under this Act to replace the Jackson Lake Dam, Minidoka Project, Idaho and Wyoming, with a separate storage or detention facility at another location. Increases the authorized appropriations to carry out such Act after October 1, 1983. States that the Secretary of the Interior may obligate construction funds for dam safety earlier than the required 60-day waiting period, after notifying Congress, when the appropriate congressional committees approve such earlier date. Includes within the scope of the Reclamation Safety of Dams Act of 1978: (1) Fish Lake, Four Mile, Ochoco, Savage Rapids Diversion and Warm Springs Dams, Oregon; (2) Como Dam, Montana; (3) Little Wood River Dam, Idaho; and (4) Foss Dam, Oklahoma. Makes specified costs of the Twin Buttes Dam and Foss Dam nonreimbursable and nonreturnable under Federal reclamation laws.
