S 5471 United States Senate · 118th Congress

Protecting Investments in Our Ports Act

This bill amends the process for applying for federal port infrastructure grants. It directly affects port authorities or companies seeking grants to purchase digital systems or software for port facilities. The key change requires applicants to either certify their facility has a security plan covering these digital risks or describe how they'll address those risks in their application. If they provide a description instead of a certified plan, they must later update their security plan to include those specific risks during the next required review.
