c. Construction, Operation, and Maintenance. Sections 101,

102, and 103 of WRDA 1986, as amended, specify the cost sharing for

commercial harbor, inland waterway, and recreational navigation

projects, respectively.

(1) Harbors. Section 101, as amended, requires the project

sponsor to bear a percentage share of harbor construction costs for

project components that are cost-shared (general navigation features,

mitigation), that varies according to the range of water depths where

the work is done (20 feet or less, greater than 20 feet but not in

excess of 45 feet, and greater than 45 feet). This variable cost

share is paid during construction. In addition, Section 101 requires

the sponsor to pay 10 percent of the construction costs that are

cost-shared, on completion of construction or over time with interest,

up to 30 years. Credit against this 10 percent contribution is

allowed for the value of lands, easements, rights-of-way, relocations,

and the non-Federal sponsor share of deep-draft utility relocations.

(2) Waterways. Waterways that are determined to be "inland

waterways" for the purpose of Section 102 are exempt from cost

sharing, and construction and O&M are 100 percent Federal. Waterways

that are not "inland waterways" are cost shared as commercial or

recreational harbors depending on project purpose.

(3) Recreation. Section 103 sets fixed percentages for the

non- Federal share of construction and O&M costs for recreation

projects (50 and 100 percent, respectively). These cost shares apply

to recreational navigation projects, and the joint and separable costs

allocated to recreation in other navigation projects.
