The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers has selected the FM Area Diversion Project, a P3 demonstration, as one of six projects nationwide that will begin construction in Fiscal Year 2016. The Corps’ Work Plan includes $5 million appropriated by Congress for the current fiscal year to get the project started. The Corps cannot use the dollars for construction until a decision, expected in July, is made by the Assistant Secretary of the Army determining that all state environmental reviews and regulatory requirements are likely to be resolved.
