This section covers the Army's costs for investigating bridges and other structures in navigable waters. It also covers costs for checking possible violations of water-protection laws and marking harbor lines. These expenses come from funds for the affected waterway or harbor, or otherwise from general survey funds.

The Engineer Department of the Department of the Army pays for expenses from investigations, inspections, hearings, and notices related to reviewing plans or sites for bridges or other structures that are built, or proposed to be built, in or over navigable waters. These same funds also cover expenses for investigating possible violations of the laws that protect and preserve navigable waters, and for setting or marking harbor lines. The money for these expenses comes from any funds available for improving, maintaining, operating, or caring for the affected waterways or harbors. If the Chief of Engineers decides those funds are not enough, the expenses instead come from any funds available for examinations, surveys, and contingencies of rivers and harbors.
