Office of District Waterways Management Establishment Congressional Review Emergency Amendment Act of 2024
This bill amends the law establishing the Office of District Waterways Management to update how its advisory commission operates. It changes the appointment process for commission members to align with similar city groups, adds the Department of Parks and Recreation as a non-voting member, and adjusts the meeting schedule to allow more time for public engagement. The legislation also grants the commission the authority to decide if the waterways advisory plan needs updating and extends the required review period to at least every three years. These changes are made on an emergency basis to address a specific congressional review requirement.
