Navajo-Gallup Water Supply Project Amendments Act of 2025

This bill makes changes to a water supply project for the Navajo Nation that was originally set up in 2009 as part of a deal settling the Navajo Nation's water rights in New Mexico. It pushes the deadline for building the project's facilities to the end of 2029 and allows the project to serve more areas, including delivering water to Lupton, Arizona, and certain Navajo communities in Utah. The bill also tells the Department of the Interior to take certain land into trust for the Navajo Nation and creates two new trust funds to help pay for the upkeep of the project — one for the Navajo Nation and one for the Jicarilla Apache Nation.
