Sense of Congress

It is the sense of Congress that, during construction of a water resources development project of the Corps of Engineers that affects a public recreational amenity, including a park, a trail, a green space, a recreational waterway, and any other public open space, the Secretary of the Army should— (1) maintain an equivalent level of recreational access to such public recreational amenity; (2) minimize temporary disruptions to such access through project planning and coordination with affected communities; and (3) provide alternative public access where necessary to ensure continued recreational opportunities for the duration of such construction.
