In subsection (a), the words "U.S. Army Corps of Engineers" are substituted for "Corps of Engineers" for clarity. The words "Secretary of the Army" are substituted for "Secretary" because of section 2 of the Water Resources Development Act of 1986 (33:2201). In subsection (d), the words "U.S. Army Corps of Engineers" are substituted for "Corps of Engineers" for clarity. |

1 So in original. Probably should be "Appropriations". |
