US President Donald Trump on Tuesday signed into law America’s Water Infrastructure Act, which seeks to “provide for the conservation and development of water and related resources and authorize the Secretary of the Army to construct various projects for improvements to rivers and harbors of the [US].”
The law purports to benefit nearly every state by authorizing “construction of Army Corps of Engineers water resources projects for flood risk management, navigation, hurricane and storm damage risk reduction, and environmental restoration” and modifying “previously authorized projects.”
