N.Y. Environmental Conservation Law § 15-2319: Payment by the state of part of cost of river improvement

§ 15-2319. Payment by the state of part of cost of river improvement.

Should the department find that the state of New York properly should

bear a part of the cost of any river improvement, it is hereby

authorized to so recommend to the Legislature and it may not proceed

further with the project until the Legislature has made the necessary

provisions for the payment of such costs or unless the project be so

modified as to eliminate state contributions to the cost thereof. Except

under the above circumstances the state shall be liable for no costs in

connection with any such improvement except that the salaries and

general expenses of the members of the department not specifically

assigned to the particular project are not to be assessed upon the

district.
