Such non-Federal contributions shall not exceed $17,000,000. <br />(2) In addition to the contribution described in paragraph (1), the Secretary may utilize power <br />' revenues collected pursuant to the Colorado River Storage Project Act to carry out the purposes of <br />this Act. Such funds shall be treated as reimbursable costs assigned to power for repayment under <br />section 5 of the Colorado River Storage Project Act. This additional contribution shall not exceed <br />$17,000,000. Such funds shall be considered a non-Federal contribution for the purposes of this <br />Act. The additional funding provided pursuant to this provision may be provided through a loan or <br />loans from the Colorado Water Conservation Board Construction Fund (37-60-121 C.R.S.) to the <br />Secretary of Energy to replace revenues which would otherwise be used for project repayments. <br />i The Secretary is authorized to repay such loan or loans from power revenues, subject to an <br />agreement between the Colorado Water Conservation Board and the Secretary of Energy. The <br />agreement shall include provisions designed to minimize future increases in electrical power rates <br />and ensure that a lump sum repayment, which includes principal and interest, is paid to the <br />Colorado Water Conservation Board no later than October 31, 2057. <br />(3) All contributions made pursuant to paragraphs (1) and (2) shall be in addition to the cost of <br />' replacement power purchased due to modifying the operation of the Colorado River Storage <br />Project and the capital cost of water from Wolford Mountain Reservoir in Colorado. Such costs <br />shall be considered as non-Federal contributions, not to exceed $20,000,000. <br />' (d) BASE FUNDING- (1) The Secretary may utilize power revenues collected pursuant to the <br />Colorado River Storage Project Act for the annual base funding contributions to the Recovery <br />Implementation Programs by Reclamation.
