Sec.  24.6  Administration of jointly-funded projects.

    Whenever two or more Federal agencies provide financial assistance 
to an Agency or Agencies, other than a Federal agency, to carry out 
functionally or geographically related activities which will result in 
the acquisition of property or the displacement of a person, the Federal 
agencies may by agreement designate one such agency as the cognizant 
Federal agency. In the unlikely event that agreement among the Agencies 
cannot be reached as to which agency shall be the cognizant Federal 
agency, then the lead agency shall designate one of such agencies to 
assume the cognizant role. At a minimum, the agreement shall set forth 
the federally assisted activities which are subject to its terms and 
cite any policies and procedures, in addition to this part, that are 
applicable to the activities under the agreement. Under the agreement, 
the cognizant Federal agency shall assure that the project is in 
compliance with the provisions of the Uniform Act and this part. All 
federally assisted activities under the agreement shall be deemed a 
project for the purposes of this part.
