H.R. 10385: To amend the Water Resources Development Act of 1992 to increase the amount of funds authorized for the Secretary of the Army to carry out wastewater infrastructure projects in Village of Kelleys Island, Ohio, and for other purposes.

This bill would change an existing federal water infrastructure provision by increasing the amount of money authorized for certain wastewater infrastructure work in Village of Kelleys Island, Ohio.

What the bill does

• It amends a section of the Water Resources Development Act of 1992.
• It replaces an existing authorization of $1,000,000 with $16,500,000.
• The added funding authority is for the Secretary of the Army to carry out wastewater infrastructure projects tied to the local water and wastewater system provision referenced in the law.

Practical effect

In plain terms, the bill would let the federal government authorize much more money for wastewater-related infrastructure work associated with the named Ohio locality. This could help pay for planning, construction, upgrades, or other improvements to wastewater facilities or related systems, depending on how the project is implemented under the existing law.

Scope

The bill is narrow in scope. It does not create a new nationwide program. Instead, it changes the funding ceiling for a specific authorized project area in Ohio by increasing the permitted amount from $1 million to $16.5 million.
