The Secretary shall not include the amount of Federal obligations incurred and non-Federal contributions provided for an authorized water resources development project during the period beginning on the date of enactment of this Act and ending on September 30, 2025, for purposes of determining if the cost of the project exceeds the maximum cost of the project under section 902 of the Water Resources Development Act of 1986 ( 33 U.S.C. 2280 ). The Secretary shall not, solely on the basis of section 902 of the Water Resources Development Act of 1986 ( 33 U.S.C. 2280 )— defer the initiation or continuation of construction of a water resources development project during the period described in subsection (a); or terminate a contract for design or construction of a water resources development project entered into during the period described in subsection
(a)after expiration of that period. The Secretary shall resume construction of any water resources development project for which construction was deferred on the basis of section 902 of the Water Resources Development Act of 1986 ( 33 U.S.C. 2280 ) during the period beginning on October 1, 2021, and ending on the date of enactment of this Act. Nothing in this section waives the obligation of the Secretary to submit to the Committee on Environment and Public Works of the Senate and the Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure of the House of Representatives a post-authorization change report recommending an increase in the authorized cost of a project if the project otherwise would exceed the maximum cost of the project under section 902 of the Water Resources Development Act of 1986 ( 33 U.S.C. 2280 ).
