What this bill would do

This Act, known as the "ESTUARIES Act," aims to amend the Federal Water Pollution Control Act to reauthorize the National Estuary Program. It adds Mississippi Sound, Mississippi, to the list of designated areas in the program. Additionally, the bill extends the program's timeline by changing a date from 2026 to 2031. However, the bill places specific restrictions on how the EPA Administrator can use funds for the Mississippi Sound addition during fiscal years 2025 and 2026.
