FINDINGS
Pub. L. 113–23, § 2, Aug. 9, 2013, 127 Stat. 493, provided
that: ‘‘Congress finds that—
‘‘(1) the hydropower industry currently employs ap-
proximately 300,000 workers across the United States;
‘‘(2) hydropower is the largest source of clean, re-
newable electricity in the United States;
‘‘(3) as of the date of enactment of this Act [Aug. 9,
2013], hydropower resources, including pumped stor-
age facilities, provide—
‘‘(A) nearly 7 percent of the electricity generated
in the United States; and
‘‘(B) approximately 100,000 megawatts of electric
capacity in the United States;
‘‘(4) only 3 percent of the 80,000 dams in the United
States generate electricity, so there is substantial
potential for adding hydropower generation to non-
powered dams; and
‘‘(5) according to one study, by utilizing currently
untapped resources, the United States could add ap-
proximately 60,000 megawatts of new hydropower ca-
pacity by 2025, which could create 700,000 new jobs
over the next 13 years.’’
