After a funding lull, U.S. General Services Administration appropriations are bouncing back for "land ports of entry" projects.
In the newly enacted spending bill for the rest of fiscal year 2015, GSA's account allotment for its new-construction includes $216.8 million for the San Ysidro project and $98.1 million for a port in Calexico, Calif. Those were the amounts GSA had requested in its budget submission. Combined, the allocations for the two projects account for 62% of GSA's total for the construction account.
