Summary:
Congress generally funds the civil works activities of the
U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) in annual Energy
and Water Development appropriations acts. These
activities include the planning and construction of
authorized water resource projects and the operation and
maintenance (O&M) of infrastructure and navigation
improvements managed by USACE. USACE directly
commits funds for project planning and construction. It uses
most of its appropriations for work on specific studies and
projects authorized by Congress. Nonfederal project
sponsors or users often share in project construction costs.
For more on the USACE appropriations process and related
issues, see CRS Report R46320, U.S. Army Corps of
Engineers: Annual Appropriations Process.
For USACE civil works, President Biden is requesting
$7.41 billion for FY2024 (see Figure 1), which is $897
million lower than FY2023 enacted annual appropriations
of $8.31 billion (Division D, Title I of P.L. 117-328).
