In the Red Zone Striving for a Waterways Touchdown

摘要

While the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers' Work Plan for Fiscal Year 2020 doesn't draw the attention of 100 million people like the recent Super Bowl, it could be a game changer for U.S. inland waterways. By law, the Corps releases its Work Plan 60 days after the previous Fiscal Year Appropriations bill has been signed by the president. The FY20 Energy & Water Development (E&WD) Appropriations bill that funds the Corps was approved on December 20, and the Work Plan outlines the allocations of that funding to specific projects and programs. The FY20 Work Plan was expected to be released before the president's FY21 budget request on or about February 10.
