Owens secured enacted FY2026 Community Project Funding for Gunnison City's Tarr Canyon Water Development Project, including $5 million for a new drinking water well and related water reliability improvements in Utah. Because the funding was attributed to Owens as requestor and passed while he remained in federal office, this satisfies the broad promise to find solutions improving Utah water security within the same term.

The promise is broad and action-oriented: to find solutions that increase Utahns' water security. Owens can claim direct credit for materially advancing and announcing a completed federal funding win for Gunnison City's Tarr Canyon Water Development Project, which funds a new drinking water well and improves reliable water access. That is a concrete water-security outcome achieved while in office, and the additional FY27 requests reinforce an ongoing effort in the same policy area. Because at least one tangible water-security project was delivered during his current congressional service, this is best scored as delivered in the same term.

Owens secured $5 million in Community Project Funding for Gunnison City's Tarr Canyon Water Development Project while serving in federal office. The project directly addresses Utah water security by funding a new drinking water well and more reliable water access. Additional FY27 water-infrastructure requests show continued effort, but the completed funding win is enough to count the promise as delivered in the same term.
