Some contracts the Secretary signed with a district before October 1, 1981, define project or nonproject water. Others describe delivering project water through nonproject facilities, or the reverse, to district land. This section officially validates all such contracts on behalf of the United States.

Any contract that the Secretary signed with a district before October 1, 1981, is hereby authorized and validated on the United States' part, if that contract does one of these things: defines what counts as "project water" or "nonproject water," describes delivering project water through nonproject facilities to land in the district, or describes delivering nonproject water through project facilities to land in the district.
