Search 33 U.S.C. § 627 : US Code - Section 627: Application of appropriation when separate works are included therein

Where separate works or items are consolidated in River and
Harbor Acts and an aggregate amount is appropriated therefor, any
balances remaining to the credit of the separate works or items may
be transferred to the credit of the corresponding aggregate amounts
appropriated for the consolidated items, and the amounts
appropriated or transferred shall, unless otherwise expressed, be
expended in securing maintenance and improvement according to the
respective projects adopted by Congress, after giving due regard to
the respective needs of traffic. The allotments to the respective
works consolidated shall be made by the Secretary of the Army upon
recommendations by the Chief of Engineers. In case such works or
items are consolidated and separate amounts are given with each
project, the amounts so named shall be expended upon such separate
projects unless, in the discretion of the Secretary of the Army,
another allotment or division should be made of the same. Any
balances remaining to the credit of the consolidated items shall be
carried to the credit of the respective aggregate amounts
appropriated for the consolidated items.
