of the Central Arizona Project, including prepayment for power
generation and transmission facilities but exclusive of distribution and
drainage facilities for non-Indian lands, $832,180,000 plus or minus
such amounts, if any, as may be justified by reason of ordinary

maintenance of the project.
(b) There is also authorized to be appropriated $100,000,000 for

shall enter into agreements with non-Federal interests to provide not
less than 20 per centum of the total cost of such facilities during the

be made from that fund to the general fund of the Treasury to return any
part of the costs of construction, operation, and maintenance of such
facilities.
