Explanation

(This amendment provides $100,000 the second year to help find alternate solutions for the rehabilitation of the Cherrystone and Roaring Fork dams. The USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service presented a plan to the sponsors for the purpose of rehabilitating the two dams costing $20.0 million. The sponsors would like to find a less costly solution.)
