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.

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.
