This letter from House Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure Chair Peter DeFazio (D-OR) and Ranking Member Sam Graves (R-MO) urges President Biden to fully utilize the Harbor Maintenance Trust Fund (HMTF) in his upcoming budget request, a move that would make billions of dollars in already-collected fees available to the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (Corps) to maintain U.S. ports and harbors.
