Incentivizing the Expansion of U.S. Ports Act

This bill amends two provisions in the U.S. Code related to port dredging. It removes a requirement for certain dredged material to meet specific certification standards under section 12112(a)(2), making it easier for port authorities to handle dredged material without additional oversight. The bill also deletes references to "dredged material" from the section heading and text of 46 U.S.C. §55110, updating it to reference "transportation of valueless material" instead. These changes directly affect port expansion projects and dredging contractors by streamlining regulatory processes for material removal. The bill focuses on simplifying existing rules rather than creating new programs or funding.
