Bill overview
The Dredging to Ensure the Empowerment of Ports Act (DEEP Act) aims to streamline dredging projects by establishing a new nationwide permit (NWP) for the Secretary of the Army to propose. This NWP would cover dredging activities within navigable waters of the United States, primarily focused on port maintenance, expansion, and deepening. The bill seeks to simplify the environmental review process for these projects and ensure a more efficient permitting system for port operations, while also addressing state water quality certification requirements.
