Measure authorizes 12 Army Corps of Engineers construction projects totaling roughly $4.8 billion.

As the 117th Congress headed into its final days, infrastructure advocates scored another legislative victory with bipartisan congressional approval of a new Water Resources Development Act, or WRDA, authorizing $37.8 in federal funds for 30 new or modified U.S. Army Corps of Engineers storm protection, harbor dredging and other civil-works projects.

Update: House passes WRDA-DOD package, sending it to Senate.
