Okla. Stat. tit. 74, § 74-1005: Filing of agreements - Status - Actions

Prior to its entry into force, an agreement made pursuant to

this act shall be filed with the county clerk and with the Secretary

of State. In the event that an agreement entered into pursuant to

this act is between or among one or more public agencies of this

state and one or more public agencies of another state or of the

United States, said agreement shall have the status of an interstate

compact, but in any case or controversy involving performance or

interpretation thereof or liability thereunder, the public agencies

party thereto shall be real parties in interest and the state may

maintain an action to recoup or otherwise make itself whole for any

damages or liability which it may incur by reason of being joined as

a party therein. Such action shall be maintainable against any

public agency or agencies whose default, failure of performance, or

other conduct caused or contributed to the incurring of damage or

liability by the state.
