And I'm happy to bring this bill to achieve this purpose. This bill offers a practical solution by transferring 150 acres of forest Service land within the watershed of the city into city's ownership. This transfer will allow the city of the Dallas to efficiently upgrade the Crow Creek Dam, increase its reservoir capacity by 2,100 acre feet, eliminate the need for ongoing special use permits with the Forest Service and allow implementation of a comprehensive watershed management strategy. Would also save tens of thousands of dollars in administrative costs for both the city and the Forest Service. (01:00–01:19)
