What this bill would do
This bill is known as the Technical Correction to the Shoshone-Paiute Tribes of the Duck Valley Reservation Water Rights Settlement Act of 2025. It amends the Omnibus Public Land Management Act of 2009. The main goal of the legislation is to authorize the payment of adjusted interest on a specific development fund. It covers the period of fiscal years 2027 through 2033 for this interest calculation. The interest is calculated using the daily government overnighter rate. Finally, the funds for this are to be derived from amounts otherwise made available to the Secretary to implement authorized Indian water rights settlements.
