Grants shall be made under this section on condi- 

 tion that — 



(1) Such State (or interstate agency) files with 

 the Administrator within one hundred and twenty 

 days after October 18, 1972: 



(A) a summary report of the current status of 

 the State pollution control program, including 

 the criteria used by the State in determining 

 priority of treatment works; and 



(B) such additional information, data, and re- 

 ports as the Administrator may require. 



(2) No federally assumed enforcement as de- 

 fined in section 1319(a) (2) of this title is in effect 

 with respect to such State or interstate agency. 



(3) Such State (or interstate agency i submits 

 within one hundred and twenty days after Octo- 

 ber 18, 1972, and before October 1 of each year 

 thereafter for the Administrator's approval its 

 program for the prevention, reduction, and elimi- 

 nation of pollution in accordance with purposes 

 and provisions of this chapter in such form and 

 content as the Administrator may prescribe. 



(g) Reallotment of unpaid allotments. 



Any sums allotted under subsection (b) of this

§ 1257. Mine water pollution control demonstrations. 



(a) Comprehensive approaches to elimination or con- 

 trol of mine water pollution. 



The Administrator in cooperation with the Ap- 

 palachian Regional Commission and other Federal 

 agencies is authorized to conduct, to make grants 

 for, or to contract for, projects to demonstrate com- 

 prehensive approaches to the elimination or control 

 of acid or other mine water pollution resulting from 

 active or abandoned mining operations and other 

 environmental pollution affecting water quality 

 within all or part of a watershed or river basin, 

 including siltation from surface mining. Such proj- 

 ects shall demonstrate the engineering and economic 

 feasibility and practicality of various abatement 

 techniques which will contribute substantially to 

 effective and practical methods of acid or other 

 mine water pollution elimination or control, and 

 other pollution affecting water quality, including 

 techniques that demonstrate the engineering and 

 economic feasibility and practicality of using sewage 

 sludge materials and other municipal wastes to 

 diminish or prevent pollution affecting water quality 

 from acid, sedimentation, or other pollutants and in 

 such projects to restore affected lands to usefulness 

 for forestry, agriculture, recreation, or other benefi- 

 cial purposes. 



(b) Consistency of projects with objectives of Appa- 

 lachian Regional Development .Act of 1965. 



Prior to undertaking any demonstration project 

 under this section in the Appalachian region (as de- 

 fined in section 403 of the Appalachian Regional 

 Development Act of 1965. as amended*, the Appa- 

 lachian Regional Commission shall determine that 

 such demonstration project is consistent with the 



objectives of the Appalachian Regional Develop- 

 ment Act of 1965, as amended. 



(c) Watershed selection. 



The Administrator, in selecting watersheds for the 

 purposes of this section, shall be satisfied that the 

 project area will not be affected adversely by the 

 influx of acid or other mine water pollution from 

 nearby sources. 



(d) Conditions upon Federal participation. 



Federal participation in such projects shall be 

 subject to the conditions — 



( 1 ) that the State shall acquire any land or in- 

 terests therein necessary for such project; and 



(2) that the State shall provide legal and prac- 

 tical protection to the project area to insure 

 against any activities which will cause future acid 

 or other mine water pollution. 



(e) Authorization of appropriations.

§ 1258. Pollution control in the Great Lakes. 



(a) Demonstration projects. 



The Administrator, in cooperation with other 

 Federal departments, agencies, and instrumentalities 

 is authorized to enter into agreements with any 

 State, political subdivision, interstate agency, or 

 other public agency, or combination thereof, to carry 

 out one or more projects to demonstrate new meth- 

 ods and techniques and to develop preliminary plans 

 for the elimination or control of pollution, within 

 all or any part of the watersheds of the Great Lakes. 

 Such projects shall demonstrate the engineering 

 and economic feasibility and practicality of removal 

 of pollutants and prevention of any polluting matter 

 from entering into the Great Lakes in the future and 

 other reduction and remedial techniques which will 

 contribute substantially to effective and practical 

 methods of pollution prevention, reduction, or elimi- 

 nation. 



(b) Conditions of Federal participation. 



Federal participation in such projects shall be sub- 

 ject to the condition that the State, political subdi- 

 vision, interstate agency, or other public agency, or 

 combination thereof, shall pay not less than 25 per 

 centum of the actual project costs, which payment 

 may be in any form, including, but not limited to, 

 land or interests therein that is needed for the proj- 

 ect, and personal property or services the value of 

 which shall be determined by the Administrator. 



(c) Authorization of appropriations.
