(a) The Secretary in cooperation with the
secretaries of Health and Cental Hygiene, AGRICULTURE,
STATE PLANNING, and Economic and Community Development[,]

continuing research program for electric power plant site
evaluation and related environmental and land use

regulatory agencies, if the electric company has
requested reimbursement in advance and furnishes an
outline of the program and its estimated cost so that the
Secretary can budget it in advance.
