Bitter Root bill to be put thru in this session
Washington June 25 hopeful action nears on Representative Scott Leavitt’s bill to authorize rehabilitation of the Bitter Root reclamation project in western Montana at an estimated 760000. The Senate irrigation committee approved the measure as passed by the House, despite earlier opposition from Rep. McFadden of Pennsylvania. Leavitt expects the bill to become law before adjournment, funding from the federal reclamation fund for a debt-laden private project comprising about 20000 acres with a 2 million dollar construction cost and 72 miles of canal. The project, located in Ravalli County, includes ten miles of wooden flume needing rebuilds. A Cranton amendment limited federal funds to 105 percent of debt. The measure aims to study rehabilitation of reclamation projects as a model. Congress member Ryans indicated progress toward approval.
