Lets federal government help pay for repairs to urban canals, making them safer for nearby communities.
This bill would let the federal government help pay for major repairs and upkeep on certain urban canals. It would make these canals safer for the more than 100 people who live nearby if a canal were to fail. Currently, there isn't a specific federal program for this kind of help.
Currently, there is no specific federal program or definition for "urban canals of concern" that allows the Secretary of the Interior to perform major maintenance with a dedicated cost-sharing plan. If this bill passes, the federal government would define these canals and help pay for their upkeep, covering 35 percent of costs and advancing the rest for repayment by local groups.
