This bill appropriates funds for the implementation of the Red River mediation agreement, which is aimed at addressing natural resource management issues in the region. Specifically, it allocates $350,000 from the general fund for each of the fiscal years 2026 and 2027 to the commissioner of natural resources.

The funds will be used to provide grants covering up to 50 percent of the costs associated with implementing the terms of the mediation agreement. This financial support is intended to facilitate cooperation and resolution among stakeholders involved in the management of the Red River's natural resources.
