In the section, the words ``act under'' are substituted for ``use
the authorities described in'', and the words ``when necessary'' are
substituted for ``that they are applied only as necessary'', to
eliminate unnecessary words. The words ``head of an executive agency
acts under those sections only'' are substituted for ``the authorities
are limited in use to'' for clarity. The words ``These authorities shall
be exercised only'', ``Where appropriate to further the purposes of this
chapter, and subject to the conditions prescribed in this section'',
``(relating to the establishment of uniform technical or administrative
requirements, delegation of powers and responsibilities, and
establishment of joint management funds)'', ``include criteria or
procedures to'', and ``that they are applied'', are omitted as
unnecessary because of the restatement.
