Congress can spend up to $2.5 million (in 1969 dollars) to build the Cataloochee entrance road. That amount can go up or down to match normal changes in construction costs.

Congress authorizes spending money to build the entrance road described in section 403h–12 of this title. The limit is $2,500,000, measured in 1969 prices. That limit can be adjusted up or down, but only to match ordinary swings in construction costs, as tracked by standard engineering cost indexes for this type of construction.
