Pub. L. 100-371, tit. II, sec. 205

Sec. 205. Of the appropriations for the Central Utah project, in this or any other Act, not more than $17,000,000 of the total in any one fiscal year may be expended by the Secretary for all administrative expenses; except that this provision shall only become applicable after legislation to raise the authorization ceiling for the Colorado River Storage Project Act is approved by the Congress and signed by the President, otherwise the existing administrative expense limitation shall remain in effect: Provided, That the Inspector General of the Department of the Interior shall annually audit expenditures by the Bureau of Reclamation to determine compliance with this section: Provided further, That none of the Bureau of Reclamation’s appropriations shall be used to fund the audit: Provided further, That the Bureau of Reclamation shall not delay or stop construction of the project due to this limitation and shall apply all the remaining appropriations to completion of this project, unless continuation of work on the Central Utah project would cause administrative expenses attributable to the Central Utah project to be paid from funds available for other Bureau of Reclamation projects and thereby delay their construction.
