What is the process to request Reclamation to review an appraisal investigation or a feasibility study completed without Reclamations assistance?
You can submit an appraisal investigation or a feasibility study that was not completed under this program to your local Reclamation office, with a cover letter requesting that they review it. Your cover letter needs to address the eligibility criteria in §§ 404.6 and 404.7, and the prioritization criteria in § 404.13. You can make your submittal at any time and do not need to submit a statement of interest in response to a program announcement. Under some circumstances, a feasibility study completed outside of this program may be submitted for Reclamation review without first completing an appraisal investigation, as described in § 404.26, See § 404.27 of the interim final rule for more information.
