Summary:

Provides background on Bureau of Reclamation water service repayment contracts. Summarizes provision of H.R. 2898, the Western Water and American Food Security Act of 2015, to allow certain contractors to prepay construction cost obligations for water projects financed by the Federal Government, and to require the Bureau to allocate 50 percent of receipts from early repayment to a new Surface Water Storage Enhancement Account to fund construction of surface water storage projects. Outlines potential impact of H.R. 2898 on future repayment obligations and support for and opposition to the bill.
