The Mississippi Legislature appropriated more than $171 million for coastal projects across Hancock, Harrison, and Jackson counties. The funding covers two years' worth of projects after a legislative budget impasse last year blocked funding. Major projects include sewer rehabilitation in Bay St. Louis, a $5.4 million harbor bulkhead wall replacement in Pass Christian, a $5 million sewer utility relocation in Ocean Springs, and a $5 million teaching and research vessel for the University of Southern Mississippi. Additionally, a $2 million Coastal Waterways survey aims to allow counties to apply for umbrella permits for dredging projects, and $1.2 million will help build artificial fishing reefs in the Mississippi Sound.
