                       TITLE 31--MONEY AND FINANCE
 
              SUBTITLE V--GENERAL ASSISTANCE ADMINISTRATION
 
                CHAPTER 71--JOINT FUNDING SIMPLIFICATION
 
Sec. 7105. Prescribing uniform technical and administrative 
        provisions
        
    (a) To make participation in a project easier than would be possible 
because of varying or conflicting technical or administrative 
regulations and procedures not required by law, the head of an executive 
agency may prescribe uniform provisions about inconsistent or 
conflicting requirements on--
        (1) financial administration of the project (including 
    accounting, reporting and auditing, and maintaining a separate bank 
    account), to the extent consistent with section 7108 of this title;
        (2) the timing of payments by the United States Government for 
    the project when one schedule or a combined schedule is to be 
    established for the project;
        (3) providing assistance by grant rather than procurement 
    contract or by procurement contract rather than by grant; and
        (4) accountability for, or the disposition of, records, 
    property, or structures acquired or constructed with assistance from 
    the Government when common regulations are established for the 
    project.

    (b) To make easier the processing of applications for assistance, 
the head of an executive agency may provide for review of proposals for 
a project by one panel, board, or committee where reviews by separate 
panels, boards, or committees are not specifically required by law.
    (c) Notwithstanding a requirement that one public agency or a 
specific public agency be established or designated to carry out or 
supervise that part of the assistance from the Government under an 
assistance program for a jointly financed project, the head of the 
executive agency carrying out the program may waive the requirement 
when--
        (1) administration by another public agency is consistent with 
    State or local law and the objectives of the assistance program; and
        (2)(A) the waiver is requested by the head of a unit of general 
    government certifying jurisdiction over the public agencies 
    concerned; or
        (B) the State or local public agencies concerned agree to the 
    waiver.

    In subsection (a), before clause (1), the words ``To make 
participation in a project easier than would be possible'' are 
substituted for ``In order to provide for projects'' for clarity. The 
words ``because of'' are substituted for ``that would otherwise be 
subject to'' to eliminate unnecessary words. The word ``prescribe'' is 
substituted for ``adopt'', and the word ``about'' is substituted for 
``with respect to'', for consistency in the revised title. In clause 
(2), the words ``payments by the United States Government'' are 
substituted for ``Federal payments'' for consistency in the revised 
title. In clause (3), the words ``providing assistance by'' are 
substituted for ``that assistance be extended in the form of'' to 
eliminate unnecessary words. The word ``procurement'' is added for 
consistency with chapter 63 of the revised title. In clause (4), the 
words ``assistance from the Government'' are substituted for ``Federal 
assistance'' for consistency.
    In subsection (b), the words ``To make easier'' are substituted for 
``In order to permit'', and the words ``applications for assistance'' 
are substituted for ``applications in accordance with the purposes of 
this chapter'', for clarity. The words ``where . . . are not'' are 
substituted for ``except when such review is'' because of the 
restatement.
    Subsection (c) is substituted for 42:4255(c) for consistency in 
subtitle V of the revised title.
