Senator John Hoeven announced that the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers has awarded a $22 million contract to HSG Park Joint Venture 2, LLC. The contract is for spillway approach dredging at Garrison Dam, with work expected to conclude by August 27, 2027.

"The Garrison Dam is critical infrastructure for our state, and this funding will help to ensure the dam delivers a reliable water supply for communities and agriculture, while supporting recreation and tourism," stated Hoeven. "A crucial purpose of the dam is to control Missouri River water levels and this project will help to reduce the risk of downstream flooding along the Missouri and Mississippi rivers to provide more certainty and security to the region."
