Appropriate Appropriations?

When the earmark moratorium came out this spring, Kay Granger said she would participate and not ask for any more cash.  Immediately Kay Bailey Hutchison and John Cornyn's hands shot up asking for more Trinity River Vision funds.

On John Cornyn's website it shows the Tarrant Regional Water District is asking for $10,000,000 in appropriations for 2011 for the Trinity River Vision (Boondoggle).

A couple of questions - Isn't Kay Granger on the Appropriations committee that approves the requests?

If the Trinity River Vision project was a true flood control project, wouldn't it be listed under Interior, where all the other flooding projects are listed? 

And what was it said the "aging" levees could be repaired for?  9 million?  Sounds like a hell of a deal.
