The measure now heads to the White House for the President’s signature. The Act authorizes $3.5 million for repairing part of the stormwater system in downtown Hannibal, Missouri. “The passage of the Water Resources Development Act of 2022 brings us one step closer to securing this funding for Hannibal,” Graves said. “During the Flood of 2019, part of Hannibal’s stormwater system collapsed, nearly flooding large swaths of downtown Hannibal. The Corps fixed part of the damages near the levee, but there is still more work to be done. This authorization sends a clear message that historic downtown Hannibal is worth protecting for future generations.” Once the Water Resources Development Act of 2022 is signed into law, funding will need to be appropriated by Congress in order for it to be distributed to the City of Hannibal. Securing funding for this project will be a top priority for Congressman Graves. | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-04-08T03:32:05Z |
