A bill to direct the Secretary of the Army to carry out the dredging project, Menominee Harbor, Menominee River, Michigan and Wisconsin.
Summary
This bill would authorize the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers to restart a previously canceled dredging project in the Menominee Harbor and River, which borders Michigan and Wisconsin. The legislation mandates that the federal government cover the entire cost of the project, even if the estimated economic benefits do not outweigh the expenses. For local residents and businesses, this would ensure the maintenance of navigable waterways for commercial shipping and recreational boating, supporting the regional economy by keeping the harbor accessible to large vessels.
