Description
This report from the United States (US) House Committee of Conference, dated December 20, 1945, was written to accompany US House Resolution 4805 which requested funds to supplement deficiencies from the fiscal year ending June 30, 1946. This report recommended an amendment to the resolution specifying that funds provided for the Garrison Reservoir Dam could not be spent on construction of the dam itself until the tribes were adequately provided for with lieu lands of equal quality and area. The report indicates, however, that funds could be spent on “certain preliminary features” of the reservoir project. US House Resolution 4805 became US Public Law 79-269 on December 28, 1945.
