HCR 30 Urges the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers to manage the Missouri and Mississippi Rivers to protect against devastating flood events and restore flood-damaged levees

Current Bill Summary

- Prepared by Senate Research -

HCS/HCR 30 - This resolution strongly urges the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers to: re-examine the flood control operations for the Missouri and Mississippi Rivers, manage the rivers to avoid flooding disasters like those experienced in 2011, and rebuild the damaged levees as quickly as possible. The resolution also encourages communities to restore prime agricultural lands that were damaged by the flooding and strongly encourages Missouri's congressional delegation to support Missouri River management policies that minimize flood events.

This resolution is similar to SCR 25 (2012).
