A huge taxpayer funded Upper Ohio River Project as part of Presidential Executive Order 14063 on Project Labor Agreements for Federal Construction Projects.
In 2024, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) Pittsburgh District awarded a nearly $770-million contract to construct a new 110 feet by 6-hundred feet lock chamber at Montgomery Locks and Dam in Monaca, Pennsylvania. It is part of the even bigger Upper Ohio Navigation Project, itself the result of the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law which already authorized $934-million in taxpayer funding for the project.
It is hoped the project will help with the transportation of at least 12-million tons of products in and out of the Port of Pittsburgh: “Completing the new lock chamber’s plan marks a significant achievement for the district’s team. This project is vital to ensuring safe and reliable navigation on the upper Ohio River. With the contract awarded, we are ready to advance this critical infrastructure for the region and the nation.”-Colonel Nicholas Melin, USACE Pittsburgh District
The old lock is almost 1-hundred years old, and will disrupt the U.S. domestic supply chain if it fails. It is estimated that if the old lock fails it would cause the loss of nearly $150-million for the U.S. economy, per year of shutdown.
The Montgomery Locks and Dam project must first deconstruct the old auxiliary lock chamber, then the new primary lock chamber will begin sometime in mid to late 2025. But even before that, a new ‘pad’ had to be built in order to mix, on-site, a special type of concrete that will be used.

There are multiple reason why people in the United States of America should feel like rebelling against their own government, here’s just a sampling of video reports and links to publications, for 2022, so far:
Oregon voters tricked into narrowly passing covert gun ban, which actually violates Oregon’s Constitution. This report explains how Measure 114 became a covert ‘back door’ gun ban:
This report says rural voters outvote city voters in Oregon, if that is the case why did Oregon’s covert gun ban pass?
This report does a quick comparison of gun laws in Idaho, then explains how Oregon’s Measure 114 (passed by a razor thin margin) is actually a way of preventing Oregonians from their state and federal Rights to defend themselves. Also, reveals that Sheriffs of several counties refuse to enforce the new anti-2nd Amendment law:

INFRASTRUCTURE: Electric power grids have been under ‘attack’ for a long time, they were always officially referred to as “vandalisms”. In this report, the expert being interviewed reveals that power grid attacks have taken place since at least the 1990s:

For the first time ever, the United Nations (UN) has joined forces with the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO), in the Southwest Asian (Middle East) Kingdom of Jordan, to prepare for possible nuclear attack on oil industry infrastructure!

The NATO side of the Chemical, Biological, Radiological and Nuclear (CBRN) training is through NATO’s Defence (British empire spelling) and Related Security Capacity Building Initiative. According to NATO, this CBRN training was initiated three years ago, at the request of the King of Jordan. Bora Önen, NATO Defence and Related Security Capacity Building team leader, explains:
The war game scenario involved a nuclear ‘dirty bomb’ being unleashed on an oil refinery. Khan Jahier, policy officer with NATO’s Enablement and Resilience Section, Defence Policy and Planning Division:
Ulrik P. Ahnfeldt-Mollerup, with the UN Office of Counter-Terrorism (UNOCT), explains why the UN joined with NATO for the CBRN training in Jordan, and it involves the old False Flag standby; religious extremists:

Over the next 6 years, Arlington County, Virginia, is planning to replace all 4,200 high pressure sodium (HPS) street lights owned by the county with LED street lights. Spending approximately $1.5 million just in 2010 to replace 1,800 fixtures with LED technology.
However, Dominion Power owns 12,000 street lights in Arlington County. The county is discussing with Dominion Power about working together to replace all 16,200 street lights with LED technology over the next decade. This will result in an estimated a $1 million per year savings once the project is complete.
“We anticipate reducing our total streetlight energy costs by nearly 50%, and when we successfully convert all 16,000 streetlights, we will be saving about $1 million per year.” Chief of Transportation Wayne Wentz, Arlington County.
Arlington County, VA, isn’t the only one switching to LED street lighting. Los Angeles, CA, Seattle, WA, and Pittsburgh, PA, are just a few of the many cities planning to convert to the new lighting.
LED street lighting emits a whitter and brighter light, which studies suggest may decrease or displace crime in the better lit areas. Some argue the bluer light has a calming effect as opposed to the harsher orange-yellow HDS street lights. However, some argue that it may increase crime due to the increased visibility.
Reasons for opposition include; glare, light pollution, light trespass, operations to upgrade lighting being disruptive, officials attempting to disrupt livelihood. Opposition can also come from nearby neighborhoods in the form of jealousy or concern for displacement of crime to their neighborhood. Opposition in business districts can be similar.
