However, the total cost of all construction and acquisition in each such title may not exceed the total amount authorized to lie appropriated in that title.
When the amount named for any construction or acquisition in title I, II, HI, or IV of this Act involves only one project at any military installation and the Secretary of Defense, or his designee, determines that the amount authorized must be increased by more than the applicable percentage prescribed in subsection (a), the Secre-tary concerned may proceed with such construction or acquisition if the amount of the increase does not exceed by more than 25 per centum the amount named for such project by the Congress.
Subject to the limitations contained in subsection (a), no individual project authorized under title I, II, III, or IV of this Act for any specifically listed military installation may be placed under contract if—

The Secretary shall also include in such report each individual project, with respect, to which the scope was reduced in order to permit contract award within the available authorization for such project. Such report shall include all pertinent cost information for each individual project, including the amount in dollars and percentage by which the current, working estimate based on the contract price for the project exceeded the amount authorized for such project by the Congress.

Sec. 610.
The Secretary of Defense is authorized to assist communities located near Grand Forks Air Force Base, Grand Forks, North Dakota, and Malmstrom Air Force Base, Great Falls, Montana, in meeting the costs of providing increased municipal services and facilities to the residents of such communities, if the Secretary determines that there is an immediate and substantial increase in the need for such services and facilities in such communities as a direct result of work being carried out in connection with the construction, installation, testing, and operation of the Safeguard Anti-ballistic Missile-System and that an unfair and excessive financial burden will be incurred by such communities as a result, of the increased need for such services and facilities.
The Secretary of Defense shall carry out the provisions of this section through existing Federal programs. The Secretary is authorized to supplement funds made available under such Federal programs to the extent necessary to carry out the provisions of this section, and is authorized to provide financial assistance to communities described in subsection (a) of this section to help such communities pay their share of the costs under such programs.
