On December 4, 2023, the Council Chair, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), approved the Alabama State Expenditure Plan (SEP) 2023 Amendment. States amend SEPs to increase funding for projects or programs in existing SEPs and/or add new activities to the SEP. States submit SEP amendments for approval by the Council Chair. This SEP Amendment provides an additional $33,000,000 in contingency funds to further augment the budgets of approved SEP projects and programs, as needed, in response to cost increases for labor or materials, and/or other considerations not within the sponsor’s control. In addition, this amendment closes the SEP #21 Alabama Point Seawall Repair project without accomplishing full design and construction. Funds will be de-obligated and returned to the contingency fund to be used to cover costs associated with existing SEP projects.
