(c) Projects whose authorized plan could be significantly

affected by an authorized survey investigation and, therefore, should

not be undertaken pending the outcome of the survey and Congressional

action based thereon.

(3)

"Inactive" Category.

(a) Authorized projects with obvious lack of economic

justification and for which it is apparent that a current restudy

would not develop an economically justified plan;

(b) Projects which, as authorized, are not adequate to meet

current and prospective needs, and which would require such

substantial modifications and involve such increased costs to obtain

an adequate improvement that they should not proceed without new

authorization.

(c) Projects generally opposed by local interests, or for which

there is no reasonable prospect that the required local cooperation

will be forthcoming.

(d) Projects, or parts thereof, which have been accomplished by

local interests, or another agency, or which have been superseded by

another project, or for other reasons are no longer required.

b. Reclassification.

Recommendations for reclassification of

projects may be made by district commanders as the need develops. The

division commander is the approval authority for all reclassifications

to deferred or inactive. Requests for reclassification to active must

be approved at HQUSACE (CECW-P).
