SEC. 110. Funds herein or hereinafter appropriated in this title for the Chetco River, Oregon navigation project, authorized by the 1945 River and Harbor Act, as amended and modified, shall be used to design and construct further modifications to that project in accordance with the Report of the Chief of Engineers, dated May 2, 1977. SEC. 111. The Chief of Engineers is hereby directed to raise the dam at Lake Darling, North Dakota, by approximately four feet and to implement upstream and downstream flood control measures. SEC. 112. No funds appropriated in this Act may be used to construct channel realignment work on the Ouachita and Black Rivers navigation project in Arkansas and Louisiana until such time as the Chief of Engineers has completed a restudy of the various options for navigation above Crossett, Arkansas, including the two barge abreast configuration, with a view toward reducing the number of cutoffs and bend widenings required. The results of this restudy should be reported to the respective Appropriations Committees of both Houses of the Congress for review, and should accurately reflect the economic and environmental tradeoffs of providing greater than two-barge navigation.
