§701b–16 — Title 33 Navigation and Navigable Waters | U.S. Code

Summary

Treat 2 or more flood control projects in the same area as one program for budgeting and project management when the local non-Federal partners ask, if the Secretary decides doing that will not conflict with each project's official purpose. If work on one of those projects is needed only because a navigation project caused impacts, the cost for that work must follow the navigation project's cost-sharing rules. That work can be paid for with money made available by treating the projects as a single program.

(b)(1)If any work on a project to which subsection (a) applies is required solely because of impacts to that project from a navigation project, the cost of carrying out that work shall be shared in accordance with the cost-sharing requirements for the navigation project.
