AI-generated summary, report an errorThis bill changes the National Dam Safety Program Act. It removes one paragraph from the section of the law on the national dam safety program's assistance to states. It requires any state that does not use its own risk-based system for ranking high hazard potential dams to use the federal priority system for that purpose. It also extends the authorization of funding for the program that helps rehabilitate high hazard potential dams through 2031 instead of 2026.
