摘要：	Members of the Inland Waterways Users Board (IWUB), along with representatives from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and other federal agencies, met in Walla Walla, Wash., August 16 for the boards 97th meeting. The location of the meeting, along with the waterway tour the day after, emphasized the significance of navigation, industry and agriculture connected to the Snake and Columbia rivers. Corps officials updated members on revenue for the Inland Waterways Trust Fund, which receives dollars via a $0.29 fuel tax on towing vessels that use the inland rivers and canals of the United States. Fiscal year 2022 is proving to be a banner year for trust fund deposits, with monthly revenues every month since February towering over the correlating month from the four previous years. To- tal revenue so tar in FY22 stands at $110 million. That plus the beginning balance this year equals a total of nearly $332 million. Transfers to date this year amount to nearly $92 million, with the current available balance in the Inland Waterways Trust Fund just under $240 million.
