Harbors: Support legislation that will streamline the process for small harbor projects and provide dedicated funding for Hawaii.
Support legislation to streamline small harbor projects and provide dedicated funding for Hawaii.
Occurrences
Evidence
Schatz said the WRRDA deal would streamline approval for small harbor projects and give small, remote, and subsistence harbors in Hawaii dedicated funding of up to $15 million per project.
The enacted law amended the remote-and-subsistence-harbor authority to include Hawaii and Alaska, confirming the small-harbor framework became law.
Assessments
Schatz publicly backed and helped advance the WRRDA harbor provision, and Congress enacted a law that added Hawaii to the remote-and-subsistence-harbor authority with dedicated funding for small harbor projects. That matches the promise as delivered in the same term.
