Technical Correction to Shoshone-Paiute Water Rights Settlement Act

This act makes a technical correction to a previous law concerning the water rights of the Shoshone-Paiute Tribes. It authorizes additional interest payments to trust funds established under the earlier settlement. This means the tribes will receive extra financial resources, adjusted for inflation, which can impact their development and financial stability.
Key points
The act authorizes an additional payment of over $5.1 million to the Shoshone-Paiute Tribes' Development Fund.
This amount will be adjusted for changes in the Consumer Price Index since January 2016, protecting the value of the funds from inflation.
