Bureau of Reclamation's contract dollars, traced to the source.
Bureau of Reclamation · Department of the Interior
The Bureau of Reclamation (BOR) is the Interior Department component that builds & operates the dams, reservoirs, canals, and water-delivery systems supplying water & hydropower across the arid Western states. Its ~$1.07B in FY2025 contract dollars is overwhelmingly heavy-civil construction & engineering: the largest awards fund regional water systems (Pojoaque Basin), water treatment plants (San Juan Lateral), dam safety-of-dams modifications (B.F. Sisk Phases I & II), and canal capacity-correction work (Friant-Kern Middle Reach). Design-build contractors and construction-management firms — CDM Constructors, Jacobs, NW Construction — capture the top of the spend.

What this monitor reads — and what it doesn't
This is the contract-signal tier: the live USAspending award feed for the Bureau of Reclamation awarding sub-agency. It shows where BOR's procurement dollars go — obligations over time and the largest awards — not total budget authority, which also includes payroll, grants, and transfers. Figures reflect the contract (procurement) slice from USAspending FY2025 award data, not BOR's total budget authority or appropriations. The appropriation-level view lives on the Department of the Interior monitor.
