- Mission [1]
- The Council makes program recommendations to the Secretary of the Interior, Secretary of Agriculture, and the Administrator
of the Environmental Protection Agency through its Annual Report. The Annual Report specifically recommends funding levels
for the Bureau of Reclamation, Bureau of Land Management, and U.S. Department of Agriculture. The Council also independently
determines what Federal actions are needed to be consistent with the Plan of Implementation contained in the review of the
Water Quality Standards in compliance with the Clean Water Act. The Council also reviews the cost sharing allocations between
the Basin States and recommends any needed adjustments. These recommendations are captured in the Annual Report.
