A couple of things to watch for next Tuesday


I wish I could be there, but that's what the trade press is for.

REVIEW OF FY 2019 PRESIDENT’S BUDGET REQUEST FOR U.S. ARMY CORPS OF ENGINEERS’ CIVIL WORKS PROGRAM; ADMINISTRATION INFRASTRUCTURE INITIATIVE; WRDA 2018 BILL
Washington, DC – Waterways Council, Inc. (WCI) will address the news media about a variety of issues related to inland waterways transportation and lock and dam infrastructure: the Administration’s infrastructure proposal, the President’s FY2019 budget request, Water Resources Development Act (WRDA) 2018 bill, and related issues.

WHERE:         National Press Club (NPC), 529 14th Street, NW, Washington, D.C., First Amendment Room

Meanwhile, I'm just beginning to look at the river forecasts for early next week. Here in my area, the forecast shows the river will come back up and crest a foot or two higher than it did two or three days ago. Places that went under water then will have to clean up again.

More to come later.
