1958 Federal Water Supply Act and Future Water Requirements
In 1958, Congress enacted new legislation providing for inclusion of water supply storage in Bureau of Reclamation and Corps of Engineers reservoir projects. This legislation, Title III of Public Law 85‐500, approved July 3, 1958, is known as the Water Supply Act of 1958. In it, a general policy is provided for including water supply in civil works projects. It is applicable to new projects and modifications of previously authorized projects. The act affects only municipal and industrial water supplies. Also specified are the basis for determining the interest rate on unpaid balances, the responsibility of the Secretary of the Treasury, and other terms and conditions concerning inclusion of storage in reservoir projects and repayment arrangements. The Water Supply Act of 1958 is an expression of an important new federal policy. The provision authorizing the inclusion of storage for anticipated demands can be the key to providing for future water needs in many areas.
