Army Corps officials to testify on infrastructure projects
House lawmakers will hear from senior Army Corps of Engineers officials Wednesday on the status of federal water infrastructure studies and projects. The Transportation and Infrastructure Subcommittee on Water Resources and Environment hearing will focus on the Army Corps’ implementation of projects to reduce flooding and improve navigation that Congress approved under the Water Resources Development Act. … The hearing, “Water Resources Development Acts Implementation: Review and Oversight of Past Provisions,” comes as Democrats have accused the agency of delaying construction of dam repairs and other infrastructure projects in blue states, including Washington and California.
