Stormwater Management Coordinating Council may identify specific activities to be carried out by NCTCOG,and/or
professional agencies,with cost allocations to be determined through Coordinating Council consensus.The
participants to this agreement have reviewed the NCTCOG proposed work plan for FY2019,which includes

authorize the participant's cost-share of$22,722.00 for the FY2019 Work Program.
Execution of this Letter of Authorization is considered a formal part of the Interlocal Agreement,and obligates the

extended for an additional five-year period from October 1,2017 through September 30,2022.
