Supporting Commercial Fishing in Port Infrastructure Projects Act
HR 4618 amends the port infrastructure development program to explicitly include infrastructure for loading and unloading commercially harvested fish and fish products. This change makes such projects eligible for federal funding under the existing program without creating new funding or altering current allocation rules. The bill directly affects commercial fishing businesses and port authorities by expanding access to federal grants for port facilities serving the fishing industry. It focuses on concrete eligibility adjustments rather than new program requirements or outcomes.
