WRRDA 2014, Section 1002 - Consolidation of Studies
This section amends Section 905 of the Water Resources and Development Act (WRDA) 1986 to establish a single phase cost-shared study process and that for each feasibility study undertaken, the district engineer will develop a detailed study schedule and to notify the non-federal interests. The reporting requirement is applicable to active studies that received investigations funding from October 1, 2009, to June 10, 2014, or within 90 days of signing Federal Cost Sharing Agreements for studies initiated after June 10, 2014.
