## Summary

**Caps federal funding at $20 million per project for Great Lakes fishery and ecosystem restoration.** It would add that per-project limit as a new subsection (g) to Section 506 of the Water Resources Development Act of 2000 and tie the cap to the phrase "this section." The bill's title also aims to authorize additional projects not currently eligible under Department of the Army policy, but the text provided here makes the funding cap the operative change.

## Provisions PRIA read

- Limit on Great Lakes project funding: cost, low. This bill would limit federal spending for each Great Lakes restoration project to not more than $20,000,000. It would take effect upon enactment. Projects needing more money would likely require states, tribes, local governments, or other partners to pay the extra cost.
