    How would allowing western water users to prepay their Bureau of Reclamation contracts affect water pricing and affordability for agricultural versus municipal users?

  2. 02

    What specific water storage projects would benefit from prepayment receipts, and how would prioritizing them compare to other infrastructure needs in western states?

  3. 03

    Could prepayment options create financial pressure on water users with limited budgets, or would they primarily benefit larger operations with available capital?
