CORPUS CHRISTI, Texas - Corpus Christi may be closer to securing major federal funding for its proposed Inner Harbor desalination plant.
Congressman Michael Cloud announcing Thursday night that President Donald Trump's administration removed a funding cap tied to large water infrastructure projects.
According to Cloud, the administration recently eliminated a $30 million cap that had made it difficult for large-scale desalination projects like Corpus Christi's Inner Harbor desal plant to qualify for significant federal support.
