More federal grants for municipal piers
If enacted, the bill would make "municipal piers" explicitly eligible for federal resilience grants under the PROTECT program. It would add pier-strengthening projects to resilience improvement grants and include municipal piers in at-risk coastal infrastructure grants. It would also raise the program's authorized funding from $300 million to $500 million. Actual grant awards would still require later congressional appropriations.
