The GSA must develop a master contract for the placement of communications facility installations on federal property.

PROBLEM: SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.

    This Act may be cited as the ``Sacramento Valley Water Storage and 
Restoration Act of 2014''.

SEC. 2. FINDINGS.

    Congress finds the following:
            (1) The State of California and much of the West are 
        experiencing one of the driest years on record, exacerbating 
        water supply problems caused by a lack of surface water storage 
        infrastructure. The drought conditions have caused reductions 
        in water supplies to almost all water users in the State.
            (2) The Sites Project has been identified by the State of 
        California and the Federal Government as an important component 
        to integrated water management in the Sacramento Valley that 
        would advance the co-equal objectives of improving water 
        management and restoring ecological health for beneficial uses 
        of the Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta and the Sacramento River 
        watershed.
            (3) Among other things, the Sites Project would--
                    (A) increase surface water storage to enhance water 
                management flexibility in the Sacramento Valley;
                    (B) provide flood control benefits;
                    (C) improve conditions for fish, waterfowl, and 
                wildlife in the Sacramento Valley, including anadromous 
                fish in the Sacramento River; and
                    (D) improve the operation of the State's water 
                system to provide improvements in ecosystem and water 
                quality conditions in the Bay-Delta while providing a 
                more reliable water supply for the State of California.
            (4) The Sites Project has been shown to provide 
        approximately 1,300,000 of additional yield when the Sites 
        Project is integrated into the operations of other State and 
        Federal reservoirs upstream of the Bay-Delta.
            (5) Healthy wetlands are of vital importance to wildlife in 
        California and require a reliable supply of water, and 
        additional surface water storage can help meet water supply 
        goals under the Central Valley Project Improvement Act.
            (6) It is in the interests of the United States for the 
        Federal Government to work with the Sites Project Authority, 
        which has been established under laws of the State of 
        California as an independent joint powers authority to, among 
        other things, study, promote, develop, design, finance, 
        acquire, construct, manage, and operate Sites Reservoir and 
        related facilities, in order to advance the Sites Project in 
        the most expeditious and cost-effective manner possible.
