SEC. 13. AUTHORIZATION OF APPROPRIATIONS.

    Section 10 of the Act (102 Stat. 2571) is amended to read as 
follows:

``SEC. 10. AUTHORIZATION OF APPROPRIATIONS.

    ``(a) Planning, Design, and Construction.--There are authorized to 
be appropriated $263,241,000 for the planning, design, and construction 
of the Oglala Sioux Rural Water Supply System, the Rosebud Sioux Rural 
Water Supply System, the Lower Brule Sioux Rural Water Supply System, 
the West River Rural Water Supply System, and the Lyman-Jones Rural 
Water Supply System described in sections 3, 3A, 3B, and 4. Such funds 
are authorized to be appropriated only through the end of the year 
2003. The funds authorized to be appropriated by the first sentence of 
this section, less any amounts previously obligated for the Systems, 
may be increased or decreased by such amounts as may be justified by 
reason of ordinary fluctuations in development costs incurred after 
October 1, 1992, as indicated by engineering costs indices applicable 
for the type of construction involved.
    ``(b) Operation and Maintenance of Oglala Sioux Rural Water Supply 
System, Rosebud Sioux Rural Water Supply System and Lower Brule Sioux 
Rural Water Supply System.--There are authorized to be appropriated 
such sums as may be necessary for the operation and maintenance of the 
Oglala Sioux Rural Water Supply System, Rosebud Sioux Rural Water 
Supply System and Lower Brule Sioux Rural Water Supply System. The 
operation and maintenance expenses associated with water deliveries to 
the West River and Lyman-Jones Rural Water Systems are a non-Federal 
responsibility and for such deliveries the Secretary shall enter into a 
contract with the West River and Lyman-Jones Systems for the payment of 
an annual operation and maintenance fee. Such fee shall be based on the 
incremental operation and maintenance costs for water actually 
delivered each year to the West River and Lyman-Jones Rural Water 
Systems. Such operation and maintenance payments shall be increased or 
decreased by such amounts as may be justified by reason of ordinary 
fluctuations as indicated by indices applicable to comparable regional 
rural water supply systems for the type of operation and maintenance 
involved.

residing on reservations within the State of South Dakota,''.
    (b) Waste Water Disposal Systems.--Section 12 of the Act (102 Stat. 
2572) is amended by adding at the end the following:
    ``(c) Waste Water Disposal Systems.--(1) The Secretary is 
authorized and directed, in consultation with the Oglala Sioux Tribe, 
Rosebud Sioux Tribe and Lower Brule Sioux Tribe, to conduct feasibility 
studies on the need to develop waste water disposal facilities and 
systems, and rehabilitate existing waste water disposal facilities and 
systems, on the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation, Rosebud Indian 
Reservation and Lower Brule Indian Reservation, and to report to the 
Congress the findings of such studies along with his recommendations.
    ``(2) The feasibility studies authorized under this subsection 
shall be completed and presented to Congress within one year after the 
date that funds are first made available by the Secretary to complete 
the studies.''.
