Dempsey Seeks 350000 for Rio Grande Bridges
Washington December 15 Aides say Representative Dempsey is drafting a bill to appropriate 350000 in the next Congress to rebuild ten bridges over the Rio Grande. Funds would come through the Mexico United States Boundary Commission beyond the 4 million authorized for canalization and diversion projects. The plan relies on a special appropriation rather than existing funds. Federal officials anticipate approval, with many bridges to be rebuilt at the New Mexico line and some in Texas as part of flood control and water management toward Mexico.
