Title: America's Water Infrastructure Act of 2020
Policy area: Water Resources Development

Summary:
America's Water Infrastructure Act of 2020
This bill modifies water resources development projects operated by the Army Corps of Engineers and clean water programs operated by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
The bill modifies cost share requirements for the construction and major rehabilitation of certain inland waterways navigation projects.
Additionally, the nonfederal cost share for certain projects may be reduced if a small or disadvantaged community's sustainability would be threatened without the project. Similarly, the Corps of Engineers may recommend a project without national economic development benefits if the project is necessary for an underserved, economically distressed, or rural community's sustainability. The Corps of Engineers must also construct small water storage projects in rural states.
The bill authorizes new projects, including projects for ecosystem restoration, flood risk management, and navigation. The bill also establishes programs for the prevention and control of certain invasive species.
Additionally, the EPA must provide specified assistance to small and medium publicly owned treatment works. Further, the EPA must award grants to small publicly owned treatment works for activities including those related to improving energy and waste efficiency. The EPA must also award grants to reduce emissions at ports from vessels.
Further, the bill reauthorizes through FY2024 the Clean Water State Revolving Fund, which provides financing for water quality infrastructure projects.
The bill also reauthorizes through FY2030 the Indian Irrigation Fund, which provides funds to maintain and repair Indian irrigation projects.
The Government Accountability Office must report on federal dams and reservoirs in western states.

    (b) Evaluation of Temporary Structures.--On request of an impacted 
community, the Secretary shall evaluate whether the temporary structure 
warrants consideration for a permanent feature, in accordance with 
subsection (c).
    (c) Considerations.--In evaluating a temporary structure under 
subsection (b), the Secretary shall consider--
            (1) the likelihood that a similar structure will need to be 
        constructed in the area in the future if the temporary 
        structure, or a similar structure, is not made permanent;
            (2) the extent to which similar structures have been 
        constructed in the area previously and removed;
            (3) the economic, safety, and environmental benefits and 
        impacts of establishing a permanent feature in the watershed of 
        the impacted community;

        that the temporary structure should become a permanent feature, 
        or that a permanent feature would prevent damage similar to 
        damage prevented by the temporary structure, and subject to 
        paragraph (2), the Secretary shall begin the planning and 
        design of the permanent feature in accordance with all 
        applicable design and construction standards and legal 
        requirements of the Secretary, including all applicable 
        environmental laws.

                        carry out the project in a manner similar to a 
                        Chief's Report; and
                            (ii) may not carry out the project until 
                        Congress authorizes the construction of the 
                        project.
                    (C) Demolition.--Demolition of a temporary 
                structure under this section shall be subject to the 
                cost-share requirement under paragraph (3), but the

                section in partnership with a small or disadvantaged 
                community, if the Secretary determines that the life 
                safety or economic viability of the community would be

        and
            (3) expedite the completion of a feasibility study for the 
        acceptable alternative identified under paragraph (2).

SEC. 1206. ARCTIC DEEP DRAFT PORT.

    (a) Findings.--Congress finds the following:
            (1) The strategic importance of the Arctic continues to 
        increase as the United States and other countries recognize the 
        economic and military significance of the sea lanes and choke 
        points within the region and understand the potential for power 
        projection from the Arctic into multiple regions.
            (2) On January 19, 2018, Secretary of Defense James Mattis 
        released the ``2018 National Defense Strategy of the United 
        States of America'' in which the Secretary outlined the 
        reemergence of long-term, strategic competition by countries 
        such as China and Russia.
            (3) Russia and China have conducted military exercises 
        together in the Arctic, have agreed to connect the Northern Sea 
        Route, claimed by Russia, with the Maritime Silk Road of China, 
        and are working together in developing natural gas resources in 
        the Arctic.
            (4) The Government of the Russian Federation has 
        prioritized the development of Arctic capabilities and has made 
        significant investments in military infrastructure in the 
        Arctic, including the creation of a new Arctic Command and the 
        construction or refurbishment of 16 deepwater ports and 14 
        airfields in the region.
            (5) The Government of the People's Republic of China--
                    (A) released, in January 2018, its new Arctic 
                Strategy, the Polar Silk Road, in which it declares 
                itself as a ``near-Arctic state''; and
                    (B) has publicly stated that it seeks to expand its 
                ``Belt and Road Initiative'' to the Arctic region, 
                including current investment in the natural gas fields 
                in the Yamal Peninsula in Russia, rare-earth element 
                mines in Greenland, and the real estate, alternative 
                energy, and fisheries in Iceland.
            (6) The significance of the Arctic continues to grow as 
        countries around the globe begin to understand the magnitude of 
        the natural resources in the Arctic, including, at a minimum, 
        oil, natural gas, rare earth minerals, gold, diamonds, and 
        abundant fisheries.
            (7) The Bering Strait is experiencing significant increases 
        in international traffic from vessels transiting the Northern 
        Sea Route, increases that are projected to continue if 
        decreases in sea ice coverage continue.
            (8) Increases in human, maritime, and resource development 
        activity in the Arctic region create additional mission 
        requirements for Federal agencies, given--
                    (A) the strategic focus of the Government of the 
                Russian Federation and the Government of the People's 
                Republic of China on the Arctic;
                    (B) overlapping territorial claims; and
                    (C) the potential for maritime accidents, oil 
                spills, and illegal fishing near the exclusive economic 
                zone of the United States.
            (9) The increasing role of the United States in the Arctic 
        has been highlighted in each of the last 4 National Defense 
        Authorization Acts.
            (10) The United States Coast Guard Arctic Strategic Outlook 
        released in April 2019 states that ``[d]emonstrating commitment 
        to operational presence, Canada, Denmark, and Norway have made 
        strategic investments in ice-capable patrol ships charged with 
        national or homeland security missions. [The United States] is 
        the only country with an Arctic presence that has not made 
        similar investments in ice-capable surface maritime security 
        assets. This limits the ability of the Coast Guard, and the 
        Nation, to credibly uphold sovereignty or respond to 
        contingencies in the Arctic''.
            (11) On December 6, 2018, Secretary of the Navy Richard 
        Spencer stated that ``[w]e need to have a strategic Arctic port 
        up in Alaska''.
            (12) Meanwhile, the 2 closest strategic seaports, as 
        designated by the Department of Defense, to the Arctic Circle 
        are the Port of Anchorage and the Port of Tacoma, located 
        approximately 1,500 nautical miles and 2,400 nautical miles 
        away, respectively, and approximately 1,900 nautical miles and 
        2,800 nautical miles, respectively, from Barrow, Alaska.
    (b) Definition of Arctic.--In this section, the term ``Arctic'' has 
the meaning given the term in section 112 of the Arctic Research and 
Policy Act of 1984 (15 U.S.C. 4111).
    (c) Sense of Congress.--It is the sense of Congress that--
            (1) the Arctic is a region of strategic importance to the 
        national security interests of the United States;
            (2) there is a compelling national, regional, Alaska 
        Native, and private sector need for permanent maritime and 
        other infrastructure development and for a presence in the 
        Arctic region by the United States to support and facilitate 
        search and rescue, shipping safety, economic development, oil 
        spill prevention and response, protection of subsistence and 
        commercial fishing, port of refuge, Arctic research, and 
        maritime law enforcement on the Bering Sea, the Chukchi Sea, 
        and the Arctic Ocean; and
            (3) it is in the national interest to enhance existing and 
        develop maritime and other infrastructure in the Arctic that 
        would allow the Coast Guard and the Navy each to perform their 
        respective statutory duties and functions on a more permanent 
        basis with minimal mission interruption.
    (d) United States Arctic Deep Draft Port.--The Secretary shall 
expedite the completion of the applicable decision document for the 
project for navigation, Arctic Deep Draft Port, Nome, Alaska.
