in plain englishAI-generated · not legal advice

Requires the price the Secretary charges districts for irrigation water to cover the district's operation and maintenance costs, updated yearly, unless the district pays for its own operation and maintenance from non-federal money.

(a) Price adequate to recover charges: The price the Secretary charges for irrigation water delivered under a contract (or amended contract) with a district, as described in section 390cc, must be at least enough to cover all the operation and maintenance charges the district owes the United States. (b) Modification of price: Whenever a district signs a contract or asks to amend one under section 390cc, and every year after that, the Secretary must recalculate the operation and maintenance charges. The Secretary must then adjust the water price in the contract to match any change in those costs. (c) Districts not operating from federal funds: This section does not apply to districts that run and maintain their own project facilities and pay for operation and maintenance with non-federal money.
