| 摘要： | Member mayors of the Mississippi River Cities & Towns Initiative (MRCTI) from Louisiana, Mississippi and Illinois gathered in St. Louis January 31 with Waterways Council Inc. to profile the transformative potential of the major infrastructure projects now being funded through the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA). The Corps of Engineers recently released its spending plan for many of these new projects, giving stakeholders a preview of the vital work that will take place over the next several years to improve the Mississippi River System. "This is historic," said Mayor Errick Simmons of Greenville, Miss., and MRC- TI co-chair. "We have not seen this much investment for so many projects come to our corridor for decades. The IIJA funding coupled with the Hurricane Ida disaster supplemental will provide critical resources for infrastructure and environmental projects up and down the river. In my city of Greenville, we are especially excited about the flood protection work planned for the Yazoo/Mississippi River backwater areas and the floatable waste removal and cleanup work funded through the Mississippi River & Tributaries Program." |
