The amounts appropriated under subsection
(a)shall be increased or decreased, as appropriate, by such amounts as may be justified by reason of ordinary fluctuations in costs, as indicated by the Bureau of Reclamation Construction Cost Index-Composite Trend. The amounts appropriated under subsection
(a)shall be adjusted to address construction cost changes necessary to account for unforeseen market volatility that may not otherwise be captured by engineering costs indices, as determined by the Secretary, including repricing applicable to the types of construction and current industry standards involved. The adjustment process under this subsection shall be repeated for each subsequent amount appropriated until the authorized amount, as adjusted, has been appropriated. The period of indexing and adjustment under this subsection for any increment of funding shall start on May 19, 2025, and shall end on the date on which funds are deposited in the Agua Caliente Settlement Trust Fund.
