Wat. Code, § 12867
Text — As published in the Legislative Counsel's database, tables dated October 18, 2026 (pubinfo_2025.zip)
The State shall pay the costs of lands, easements and rights of way for projects described in subsection (a) of Section 12865 only if, or to the extent that:
(a) The Secretary of Agriculture and local organizations have agreed on a plan for works of improvement pursuant to the authorization made by the Department of Agriculture Appropriation Act for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1954.
(b) Local organizations have given assurances as required by the Secretary of Agriculture relative to local participation.
(c) The department finds in its judgment that the benefits of the proposed works of improvement for an entire project or for a portion or portions thereof which constitute complete and usable independent units will reasonably exceed the costs of the entire project or of such portion or portions thereof. Cost figures based upon a reconnaissance-type survey may be used for such purpose providing the department finds that all elements of cost reasonably appear to be included and the cost figures appear reasonably accurate for the purpose of supporting a finding that total costs will be less than the total benefits for an entire project or for such portion or portions thereof that may be under consideration.
(d) The department recommends to the Legislature that an appropriation of funds be made for the entire project or for such portion or portions thereof as constitute complete and usable independent units for reallocation for payment of the costs of lands, easements and rights of way which it finds have already been incurred or which it is anticipated will be incurred during the next fiscal year.
