            Subpart G_Local Interests/Cooperation Agreements

 

Sec.  203.84  Forms of local participation--cost sharing.



    In addition to the standard requirements of local cooperation and 

according to the circumstances, local participation in project work may 

be in the form of: contributed funds; the furnishing of materials, 

equipment, or services; and/or accomplishment of work either 

concurrently or within a specified reasonable period of time. The final 

terms agreed upon will be set forth in writing and made a part of the CA 

before commencement of work.

    (a) Contributed funds. Contributed funds may be accepted, or 

refunded, without further reference or approval by the Chief of 

Engineers. The required certificate of the district commander will cite 

33 U.S.C. 701h as the pertinent authority.

    (b) Obligation of contributed funds. Per OMB Circular A-34, all 

contributed funds must be received in cash and deposited with the 

Treasury before any obligations can be made against such funds. Public 

Law 84-99 assistance for well construction is exempted from this 

requirement because financing is specifically authorized. However, the 

CA for such well construction assistance (see subpart G of this part) 

must be signed in advance of any obligations. To reduce administrative 

problems, CA terms for well construction should be for no longer a 

period than that which will allow for payments within the means of the 

applicant. Public Law 84-99 limits the term to a maximum of 30 years.

    (c) Provision of work or services in kind. To the extent 

practicable, local interests should be allowed to minimize the amount of 

contributed funds by providing equivalent work or services in kind. Such 

services do not include LERRD's.
