may be in the form of news releases,
legal notices, official letters,

written material. Meetings, workshops,
and/or hearings may also be used, as
appropriate, to provide local publicity.
The public participation procedures do
not apply to proposed contracts for the

of the contracting parties may invite the
public to observe contract proceedings.
All public participation procedures will
be coordinated with those involved in
complying with the National

Procedures’’ for water resource-related
contract negotiations, published in 47

completed, and prior to execution, each
proposed contract form must be
approved by the Secretary of the
Interior, or pursuant to delegated or
redelegated authority, the Commissioner
of Reclamation or one of the regional
directors. In some instances,
congressional review and approval of a
report, water rate, or other terms and
conditions of the contract may be
involved.
Public participation in and receipt of
comments on contract proposals will be
facilitated by adherence to the following
procedures:
1. Only persons authorized to act on
behalf of the contracting entities may
negotiate the terms and conditions of a
specific contract proposal.
2. Advance notice of meetings or
hearings will be furnished to those
parties that have made a timely written
request for such notice to the
appropriate regional or project office of
Reclamation.

contracts may be obtained from the
appropriate regional director or his

become available for review and
comment.

period is necessary.
Factors considered in making such a
determination shall include, but are not
limited to (i) the significance of the
