In the development of, or any proposed major substantive modification to, a proposed budget for water resources development projects, the Secretary, through each District shall, not less frequently than annually—
provide to non-Federal interests and other interested stakeholders information on the proposed budget for projects or substantive modifications to project budgets within each District’s jurisdiction;
hold multiple public meetings to discuss the budget for projects within each District’s jurisdiction; and
provide to non-Federal interests the opportunity to collaborate with District personnel for projects within each District’s jurisdiction—

to the maximum extent practicable, to share in concept development and decisionmaking to achieve complementary or integrated solutions to problems.
