   To increase the funding authorization for the James River, South 
 Dakota, flood control project and direct the Secretary of the Army to 
enter into a programmatic agreement with the non-Federal sponsor of the 
                                project.

    Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the 
United States of America in Congress assembled,

SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.

    This Act may be cited as the ``James River, South Dakota, Flood 
Control Project Act of 1998''.

SEC. 2. JAMES RIVER, SOUTH DAKOTA, FLOOD CONTROL PROJECT.

    The undesignated paragraph under the heading ``james river, south 
dakota'' in section 401(b) of the Water Resources Development Act of 
1986 (100 Stat. 4128) is amended--
            (1) in the first sentence--
                    (A) by striking ``$20,000,000'' and inserting 
                ``$100,000,000'';
                    (B) by striking ``$15,000,000'' and inserting 
                ``$75,000,000''; and
                    (C) by striking ``$5,000,000'' and inserting 
                ``$25,000,000''; and
            (2) by adding at the end the following: ``The Secretary 
        shall enter into a programmatic agreement with the James River 
        Water Development District, which, as the non-Federal sponsor 
        of the project, shall perform the restoration and construct the 
        improvements in coordination with the Secretary. Non-Federal 
        funds that, before the date of enactment of the James River, 
        South Dakota, Flood Control Project Act of 1998, were 
        documented to have been spent on the restoration effort of the 
        James River since the date of enactment of this Act may be 
        counted as part of the required non-Federal match for Federal 
        funds.''.
