PART 276_WATER RESOURCES POLICIES AND AUTHORITIES: APPLICATION OF SECTION 134a 
 
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.
