Newlands Irrigation Bill Would Transform Western Lands
The Newlands irrigation bill, now law, may be the era’s most sweeping federal project. It aims to reclaim about 80,000,000 acres over thirty years, funded without direct US treasury outlay, via a revolving arid lands fund from public land sales. Revenue from projects would repay the fund, expanding from two million to ten million annually as work proceeds, under Interior Department supervision. Representative Francis G. Newlands is credited with the plan and its western impact.
