Bill would track Chesapeake Bay spending
Rep. Rob Wittman (R-Va.) has reintroduced a bill that would track how state and federal agencies spend money to restore the Chesapeake Bay, the Daily Press reports.
The bill mirrors legislation Wittman introduced two years ago. It was approved in the House, but died in the Senate. The bill would require federal agencies to report expenditures of $100,000 or more. States would report spending of $50,000 or more. The Office of Management and Budget would prepare an annual report detailing who spends what and how.
