The Virginia House Appropriations Committee’s two-year budget proposal includes $350 million to fund the deepening and widening of the Norfolk harbor.
That includes $20 million for the planning and preliminary engineering required for the project and $330 million in bonding authorization for construction.
That differs from the Senate’s proposed budget. The two-year budget proposal from the Senate Finance Committee includes $20 million for planning and engineering but does not include the bond authorization for construction.
The House and Senate will work out budget differences in conference committee.
