The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Little Rock District announced recently that the President’s Fiscal Year 2023 Budget includes $163.6 million in federal funding for the district’s civil works program.
This is part of the $6.6 billion in discretionary funding for the Army Corps’ civil works program worldwide. The proposed funding will improve the reliability and resilience of the district’s multi-purpose reservoirs and inland waterway navigation system, while enhancing the environment, generating hydroelectric power, providing recreational activities to the public and reducing the risk of flooding.
