What the document says

“of which $400,000,000 shall remain available until September 30, 2027, which shall only be available for depot level maintenance”

Making further consolidated appropriations for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2026, and for other purposes, Sec. 5

Part of the same account paragraph. Of the Coast Guard's operations and support money, $400,000,000 stays available through September 30, 2027, and may be used only for depot level maintenance, the heavy overhaul work done on ships and aircraft away from their home units.

What the document actually says

“of which $400,000,000 shall remain available until September 30, 2027, which shall only be available for depot level maintenance”

Making further consolidated appropriations for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2026, and for other purposes, Sec. 5
That sentence, in plain words

Of that money, $400,000,000 is set aside. It may only pay for heavy repair work.

What this is about

A ship comes in for a full overhaul every few years. That work takes longer than one budget year. So this money lasts two years.

No action is recorded against this proposal. That is not evidence that none has been taken, and nobody has yet read it against the record. See what the tracker does not yet cover.

How to Read This Page

The quotation is the document's own words, exactly as printed, and we check the page number against the Act itself before publishing. The paragraph underneath is our summary, not the document's words. So is the plain English version, which is why it sits beside the quotation rather than replacing it.
