116-hr-3944 116 hr 3944 To amend the Water Resources Reform and Development Act of 2014 to modify the procedure for communicating certain emergency risks, and for other purposes. Water Resources Development 2019-07-24 2019-07-25 Referred to the Subcommittee on Water Resources and Environment. House Rep. Hern, Kevin [R-OK-1] OK R H001082 1 This bill expands the situations in which the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers must provide information and assistance to the public and affected governments and Indian tribes in river basins where the corps carries out flood risk management activities. Specifically, the corps must provide these services when the National Weather Service forecasts a possibility that precipitation or runoff will exceed the calculations considered as the lowest risk to life and property contemplated by the annual operating plan. Current law directs the corps to do so only when precipitation or runoff actually exceeds such calculations. 2022-11-01T13:50:25Z
