43 U.S.C. § 1579 - U.S. Code - Unannotated Title 43. Public Lands § 1579. Fish and wildlife habitat; mitigation of losses

Current as of January 01, 2024 | Updated by Findlaw Staff

Effective October 1, 1979, and to such extent and in such amounts as are provided in advance in appropriate  1 Acts, in order to provide measures determined by the Secretary of the Interior to be appropriate to mitigate loss of fish and wildlife habitat associated with other measures taken under this subchapter:

(a)Appropriation of funds; acquisition and disposal of lands; facilities undertakings; funds restriction for non-Federal facilities

The Secretary is authorized to--

(1) acquire lands by purchase, eminent domain, or exchange;

(2) dispose of land, facilities, and equipment;

(3) construct, operate, maintain, and make replacements of facilities: Provided, however, That no funds will be provided for operation, maintenance, or replacement of non-Federal facilities.

(b)Nonreimbursable costs

All costs authorized by this section are nonreimbursable.

1 So in original. Probably should be “appropriation”.
