This legislation amends the John D. Dingell, Jr. Conservation, Management, and Recreation Act to broaden the scope of entities permitted to conduct essential maintenance activities. The bill specifically targets the Bolts Ditch and Bolts Ditch Headgate , which are critical water infrastructure components located within the Holy Cross Wilderness in Colorado. This change aims to ensure the continued upkeep and functionality of these vital water resources. The amendment designates two additional organizations as eligible to perform this maintenance work: the Eagle River Water and Sanitation District , a Colorado Special District, and the Upper Eagle Regional Water Authority , an authority organized under Colorado state law. By including these entities, the bill seeks to provide more flexibility and resources for the necessary maintenance of these facilities.
