Implementation Guidance for Section 111 of the FY12 Energy and Water Development Appropriations Act, Contributed Funds
Section 111 of the Fiscal Year 2012 Energy and Water Development Appropriations Act (FY 12 E&WDAA) (Public Law 112-74, Division B) amends the contributed funds authority codified in 33 U.S.C. 70lh. It expands this authority, which allows USACE to accept voluntarily contributed funds from States and political subdivisions, to include all water resources development project purposes. In addition, it expands the contributed funds authority to cover all phases of a project from study and design for authorized studies through construction and operation and maintenance for authorized projects. Further, it defines "States" as the several States, the District of Columbia, commonwealths, territories, and possessions of the United States, and Federally recognized Indian tribes. Finally, Section 111 requires Committee notification prior to the initiation of negotiations for the acceptance of contributed funds under 33 U.S.C. 701h. This implementation guidance supersedes the guidance in ER 1165-2-30, Acceptance and Return of Required, Contributed or Advanced Funds, dated 30 October 1998, as it pertains to Contributed Funds and CECW-P Memorandum, Subject: Contributed Funds, dated 2 July 2007.
