The Community Water Project Acceleration Act aims to expedite certain water resources development projects by exempting them from environmental.
The Community Water Project Acceleration Act seeks to streamline the approval process for specific water resources development projects. It mandates the Secretary of the Army to designate these projects as categorically excluded from environmental assessments or impact statements under the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969. This applies to projects carried out under a continuing authority program or an environmental infrastructure assistance program, where the construction work is performed by a non-Federal sponsor and the Federal share of the cost is less than $6,000,000.
