Slaughter Creek has faced long-standing navigation challenges, with reduced channel depth limiting access for commercial and recreational vessels. This funding allows long-delayed dredging to move forward and improve navigation. Statement from Congressman Harris: “When waterways like Slaughter Creek become difficult to navigate, it directly affects the people and businesses that rely on them. This funding allows long-delayed dredging to move forward and restore reliable access for commercial and recreational vessels.” For media inquiries, please contact Michella Carter at Michella.Carter@mail.house.gov | 1 | 2026-04-04T05:28:40Z | 2026-04-04T05:30:10Z |
