Sec. 2327. Definition of rehabilitation for inland waterway
projects
For purposes of laws relating to navigation on inland and
intracoastal waterways of the United States, the term ``rehabilitation''
means--
(1) major project feature restoration--
(A) which consists of structural work on an inland
navigation facility operated and maintained by the Corps of
Engineers;
(B) which will significantly extend the physical life of the
feature;
(C) which is economically justified by a benefit-cost
analysis;
(D) which will take at least 2 years to complete; and
(E)(i) which is initially funded before October 1, 1994, and
will require at least $5,000,000 in capital outlays; or
(ii) which is initially funded on or after such date and
will require at least $8,000,000 in capital outlays; and
(2) structural modification of a major project component (not
exhibiting reliability problems)--
(A) which will enhance the operational efficiency of such
component or any other major component of the project by
increasing benefits beyond the original project design; and
(B) which will require at least $1,000,000 in capital
outlays.
Such term does not include routine or deferred maintenance. The dollar
amounts referred to in paragraphs (1) and (2) shall be adjusted annually
according to the economic assumption published each year as guidance in
the Annual Program and Budget Request for Civil Works Activities of the
Corps of Engineers.
