Hoeven: More Than $22 Million Allocated for Garrison Dam Spill Way Dredging by Army Corps

BISMARCK, N.D. – Senator John Hoeven announced today that a $22 million contract was awarded by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) to the HSG Park Joint Venture 2, LLC for spillway approach dredging at Garrison Dam, where work is projected to be completed by August 27, 2027.

“The Garrison Dam is critical infrastructure for our state, and this funding will help to ensure the dam delivers a reliable water supply for communities and agriculture, while supporting recreation and tourism,”  said Hoeven. “A crucial purpose of the dam is to control Missouri River water levels and this project will help to reduce the risk of downstream flooding along the Missouri and Mississippi rivers to provide more certainty and security to the region.”
