                       (Z/ ~ '.THE COMPTROLLER GENERAL
      DECISION                 OF  THE   UNITED STATES
                               WASHINGTON. 0. C. 20548




      FILE: B-198450                 DATE:  October 2, 1980

      MATTER   OF: Contribution by Army to Fairfax County, Virginia,
                   for Part of Capital Cost of Sewage Treatment
                   Project Serving .Fort Belvoir, Virginia.
      DIGEST: EPA refused to fund part of 75% grant to Fairfax
              County, Virginia., for wastewater treatment works
              construction under Federal Water Pollution Con-
              trol Act, attributed to Fort Belvoir, Virginia.
              Army submitted cost variation report to congres-
              sional Armed Services Committees under section
              603 of 1976 Military Construction Authorization
              Act for additional project cost because of the
              EPA denial.  Such approval of use of funds orig-
              inally authorized under Title I of 1971 Mili-
              tary Construction Authorization Act constitutes
              authority to make contribution without requir-
              ing additional consideration to Government in
              lieu of part of 75% EPA grant.


     We have received a request for an advance decision from
the Department of the Army regarding the propriety of its
making a contribution to Fairfax County, Virginia, for the
cost attributed to Fort Belvoir, Virginia, for construction
of the Dogue Cre k-Accotink pumpover line and related facil-
ities (Project).

     The statement of facts enclosed with the request and
supporting documents show that in Janurary 1976, a utility
service contract, DACA 31-76-C-0003, was entered into between
the United States and Fairfax County under which the county
as contractor would furnish sewage service for Fort Belvoir
at the lowest available rate for similar conditions of service.
The county was to furnish at its expense all facilities neces-
sary to its performance, to the specified points of delivery
for the fort.  In lieu of an availability or connection charge,
the United States would construct and maintain the on-post
collection system, connecting and metering facilities, and
make available to the county a right-of-way through the Post.
The contract could be terminated by the Government upon 30
days' advance written notice.
