S. 3635, the Fort Peck Water System Reauthorization Act, extends federal authorization and funding for the Fort Peck Reservation Rural Water System, a water infrastructure project serving the Fort Peck Indian Reservation in Montana, by two years through 2028. The bill makes a straightforward technical change by updating expiration dates in the original 2000 law, pushing back deadlines from 2026 to 2028 to allow continued federal support for the water system's operations and maintenance. This reauthorization ensures that the Fort Peck Reservation and its residents maintain access to federally supported rural water services without a lapse in the program. The legislation was introduced by Montana Senators Jon Daines and Tim Sheehy and was referred to the Senate Committee on Energy and Natural Resources for consideration.
