The Secretary of the Treasury may transfer money into the reclamation fund. This requires a request from the Secretary of the Interior and the President's approval. Total transfers cannot exceed $5,000,000. The money must fund reclamation projects that were already underway on March 3, 1931.

The Secretary of the Treasury is authorized to transfer money into the reclamation fund created by section 391, whenever the Secretary of the Interior asks and the President approves. These transfers, added together, cannot exceed $5,000,000. The Secretary of the Interior decides how much is necessary, and the money must go toward building and operating reclamation projects that were authorized under the Act of June 17, 1902, and that were already under construction on March 3, 1931, along with any later acts that amended or added to that 1902 Act.
