# §5048. Joint funding; single non-Federal share requirement; grant or contract requirement waiver


Pursuant to regulations prescribed by the President, and to the extent consistent with the other provisions of this chapter, where funds are provided for a single [project](/usc/42/13641.md?p=2) by more than one Federal [agency](/usc/42/8262.md?p=1) to an [agency](/usc/42/8262.md?p=1) or organization assisted under this chapter, the Federal [agency](/usc/42/8262.md?p=1) principally involved may be designated to act for all in administering the funds provided, and, notwithstanding any other provision of law, in such cases, a single non-Federal share requirement may be established according to the proportion of funds advanced by each [agency](/usc/42/8262.md?p=1). When the principal [agency](/usc/42/8262.md?p=1) involved is the [Corporation](/usc/42/5061.md?p=7), it may waive any grant or contract requirement (as defined by such regulations) under or pursuant to any law other than this chapter, which requirement is inconsistent with the similar requirements under or pursuant to this chapter.
