Such sums as are appropriated shall remain available until expended when specifically provided in the appropriation Act. SEC. 2. Appropriations made to carry out the purposes of this Act shall be available for construction, maintenance, and expenses incident to construction and maintenance, including planning, design, overhead, and supervision. . j;/:
