VA’s 2013 budget request – Alameda Point commitment still alive
The VA’s 2013 budget request to Congress contains
no funding request for Alameda Point.
The project was first funded in 2011 for design and planning. Concerns over the proximity to a nesting
site for an endangered bird, the California Least Tern, have led to delays in moving
the project forward. FY 2012 also
did not receive a funding request.
