Not later than one year after the date of the enactment of this Act, the Secretary shall complete an evaluation and report to Congress on the potential for developing rights-of-way along Bureau of Reclamation canals and infrastructure, including reservoirs, for solar or wind energy production through leasing of lands or other means. The report to Congress shall specify— the location of potential rights-of-way for energy production; estimates of water losses due to evaporation that would be reduced due to shade and other benefits from energy production; the total acreage available for energy production; existing transmission infrastructure at such locations; estimates of fair market leasing value of potential energy sites; and estimates of energy development potential at sites.
