Statute text

With respect to the project authorized by Section 12745, the County of San Diego may acquire the lands, easements and rights-of-way for said project even though the project has not been authorized by the Congress. In the event said lands, easements, and rights-of-way for said project are acquired by the county in cooperation with the State Department of Public Works along with the lands, easements, and rights-of-way acquired by said department for state highway purposes, the County of San Diego may make application to the Department of Water Resources for reimbursement pursuant to Section 12829, and reimbursement for the costs of such lands, easements, and rights-of-way for the project may be paid after the Congress has appropriated funds for the construction of the project. Prior to the acquisition of any lands, easements, or rights-of-way for the project, the County of San Diego shall execute an agreement with the department under which it agrees to hold the state harmless from damages due from the construction, operation, or maintenance of the project.
