Full Analysis

HR8113, introduced by Rep. Maloy (R-UT) on March 26, 2026, and referred to the House Committee on Natural Resources, directs the Secretary of the Interior to conduct a feasibility study on a selective water withdrawal system at Glen Canyon Dam. The study aims to optimize hydropower generation while preventing invasive species entrainment, per existing management plans. The bill authorizes no specific funding; costs are to be paid from appropriated funds, which must be identified within 90 days of enactment. The bill is in its earliest legislative stage, with only two cosponsors and a companion bill (S3743) that has had subcommittee hearings. No market impact is expected until the study is completed (18 months after enactment) and any construction is authorized and funded through separate appropriations. The study itself is a procedural step with no direct revenue or cost implications for publicly traded companies. The affected sectors are limited to utilities and infrastructure, but no specific tickers can be reliably linked at this stage.
