Sec.  276.4  Legislative provisions.



    Section 134a authorizes and directs institution of a procedure for 

certification, at the request of local interests, that particular 

improvements for flood control to be locally constructed can reasonably 

be expected to be compatible with a specific, potential Federal project 

under study. Local interests may proceed to construct such certified 

compatible improvements at local expense with the understanding that 

such improvements can be expected to be included in the scope of the 

Federal project, if later authorized, both for the purposes of analyzing 

the costs and benefits of the project and assessing the local 

participation in the costs of such project. This legislative authority 

ceases to be in effect after December 31, 1977.
