872.24—What are Federal expense funds?

“Federal expense funds” are moneys available in the Fund that are not allocated or distributed as State share funds ( § 872.14 ), Tribal share funds ( § 872.17 ), historic coal funds ( § 872.21 ), or minimum program make up funds ( § 872.26 ). Congress must appropriate Federal expense funds before we may expend them.
