Explanation

(This amendment provides $750,000 each year from the general fund to finance Virginia's share of an Army Corps of Engineers project titled, "Chincoteague Island Study" which will study the reasons for and provide the preferred solutions to the widening of Chincoteague Inlet which is between Wallops Island and Assateague Island. The Commonwealth has invested millions of dollars at the Mid-Atlantic Regional Spaceport at the NASA Wallops Island Flight Facility. The widening inlet endangers this investment and the residents and economy of the Town of Chincoteague.)
