This bill would provide $5 million in federal funding for environmental infrastructure projects in six coastal Georgia counties: Glynn, Chatham, Bryan, Effingham, McIntosh, and Camden. The funding is intended to address flooding issues through improvements to water and wastewater systems, with a particular focus on stormwater management. The bill amends the Water Resources Development Act of 1992 to authorize this spending. Local governments and water authorities in these coastal counties would be the primary beneficiaries of the funding. The legislation was introduced by Senators Jon Ossoff and Raphael Warnock in May 2024.
