What it does

The bill would amend the Land and Water Conservation Fund to allow the Secretary of the Interior to provide financial assistance to states for water quality projects, specifically those aimed at improving impaired waters through natural hydrological systems like wetlands and marshes. It requires states to identify such waters and proposed projects in their statewide outdoor recreation plans and mandates consultation with the EPA Administrator. The assistance cannot be used to reimburse completed or fully funded projects and does not expand federal authority over nonnavigable waters or authorize regulation of water quality projects.
