Summary

When multiple federal agencies fund one project under this chapter, one lead agency can be chosen to manage all the money under rules the President sets. That lead agency may set a single non‑federal cost share based on each agency’s contribution, and if the lead is the Corporation it may waive conflicting grant or contract rules in other laws.

The Public Health and Welfare — Source: USLM XML via OLRC

Pursuant to regulations prescribed by the President, and to the extent consistent with the other provisions of this chapter, where funds are provided for a single project by more than one Federal agency to an agency or organization assisted under this chapter, the Federal agency principally involved may be designated to act for all in administering the funds provided, and, notwithstanding any other provision of law, in such cases, a single non-Federal share requirement may be established according to the proportion of funds advanced by each agency. When the principal agency involved is the Corporation, it may waive any grant or contract requirement (as defined by such regulations) under or pursuant to any law other than this chapter, which requirement is inconsistent with the similar requirements under or pursuant to this chapter.
