Sec. 1578. Authorization of appropriations
There is hereby authorized to be appropriated the sum of
$356,400,000 for the construction of the works and accomplishment of the
purposes authorized in sections 1571, 1572, 1573, and 1579 of this
title, of which $3,579,000 is authorized for mitigation of fish and
wildlife losses associated with replacement of the Coachella Canal in
California, and $6,960,000 is authorized for mitigation of fish and
wildlife losses associated with the Desalting Complex Unit and the
Protective and Regulatory Pumping Unit in Arizona, based on January
1979, prices plus or minus such amounts as may be justified by reason of
ordinary fluctuation in construction costs involved therein, and such
sums as may be required to operate and maintain such works and to
provide for such modifications as may be made pursuant to section 1574
of this title. In order to provide for the utilization of significant
improvements in desalinization technologies which may have been
developed since the Bureau's evaluation, the Secretary is directed to
evaluate such cost effective improvements and implement such improved
designs into the plant operations when the evaluation indicates that
cost savings will result: Provided, however, That no more than five
percent of the amount authorized to be appropriated is used for these
purposes. There is further authorized to be appropriated such sums as
may be necessary to pay condemnation awards in excess of appraised
values and to cover costs required in connection with the Uniform
Relocation Assistance and Real Property Acquisition Policies Act of 1970
[42 U.S.C. 4601 et seq.].
